England beat Germany 2 – 1 in Berlin last night and in doing so became the first foreign side to win in the city since the 1970's.
Despite missing 8 first team regulars, England were by far the better team throughout and were unlucky not to have won by a bigger margin.
As it was, they had to be content with 2 strikes from central defenders – man of the match Matthew Upson prodding home from a first half Stewart Downing corner and John Terry heading the winner from a Downing free kick. Shaun Wright-Phillips also hit the post with a fierce drive while substitute Darren Bent lost his footing when facing an open goal.
Germany's goal came after Terry and Scott Carson, on in the second half for David James, failed to deal with a long through ball allowing Patrick Helmes to score.
That was perhaps the only blot on England's copy book as all of Fabio Capello's fringe players put in big performances.
Glenn Johnson was excellent at right back, Upson was a revelation alongside Terry, Wayne Bridge was solid at left back, Downing had his best game for England in a long while, Michael Carrick and Gareth Barry bossed the midfield, Wright-Phillips was a box of tricks down the right while debutant Gabriel Agbonlahor ran all night and gave the towering German centre backs a ton of problems.
We had a lot of chances to score goals and I like that we played with confidence and personality.
I'm very happy today because I saw some players play very well and I needed to know them better.
The result is important but the performance was very good.
We played here in Berlin against Germany, who are a very good team, and we played very well.
I have confidence in my team and we had the opportunity to get to know some players better who have not played a lot of games with me.
It shows the strength in depth of the squad, which is vital. You're not always going to have everyone available.

train.data <- data[index, ]
fit.glm <- glm(PositiveDec ~ ., data = train.data, family = "binomial")

MTN Nigeria Communications has finally kicked off an open pilot of its highly anticipated 5G technology in seven Nigerian cities.
The company yesterday, revealed it has picked seven cities which include Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Ibadan, Kano, Owerri, and Maiduguri, as locations where it intends to test the next-generation network infrastructure.
With the successful launch of this technology, Nigeria will be joining South Africa and Kenya as countries that have formally launched the 5G network on the continent.
Customers that have the enabled devices will be allowed to connect and try out the new 5G service wherever coverage is available.
According to a report by BusinesDay, 5G technology has been switched on in 190 sites across the country with more concentration in Lagos and Abuja.
Some users of this technology have also reported internet speeds of up to 1.4g per second.
MTN also announced that compatible devices like routers and mobile phones have been displayed at their designated MTN walk-in stores and online via the MTN Nigeria website and e-marketplace where customers can walk in and place orders.
These devices aim to make sure customers enjoy seamless transitions into the new technology.
The purchased products according to the Telecoms group will be delivered to customers after the launch of the event in the coming weeks.
This successful launch of the 5G technology comes eight months after the company paid $276 million for a licence.
Reports also reveal that customers with 5G enabled Samsung phones should be able to access the technology in a month, while iPhone users might have to wait till October before they can access it.
Recall two telecoms companies, MTN and Mafab Communications had both emerged winners of the 3.5GHz spectrum license last December.
The Nigeria Communications Commission, NCC had given August 24, 2022, as the deadline to roll out the 5G technology and while MTN has launched the Fifth-Generation (5G) service, Mafab Communications was granted a five-month extension for the rollout of the service in Nigeria.
According to a 2020 GSMA Intelligence report by The Mobile Economy, this development holds a huge prospect and a promising future for technology in Nigeria as the spectrum issued to MTN Nigeria as one of the two successful winners of the 5G license bid is projected to contribute $2.2 trillion to the global economy by 2034.

What Does Good Look Like?
The Positive Deviant
Doubting Democracy
During the 1980s, as Co-secretary of the European Greens I helped to support dissident groups in communist East European countries. Somewhat recklessly in retrospect, we did things like smuggle scientific papers and parts of photocopiers through to our clandestinely organising colleagues and made sure their governments knew we knew when a dissident was arrested – so making it harder for them to be 'disappeared'.
Through conversations with these incredibly brave people, we understood, way ahead of organisations like NATO, that change was coming soon.
People were living increasingly difficult lives. Like democracy, fresh food was almost non-existent. Basic things like light bulbs meant queuing for days, flats were rancid with damp, pollution reducing life-expectancy and infrastructure dilapidated. Even the running joke "they pretend to pay us and we pretend to work" was running thin.
My friends told us they asked themselves "is all this happening because it is government policy that it should, or is it happening because they are powerless to stop it?" Well before the end of the decade they knew it was the latter.
So, when Russian leader Mikhail Gorbachev visiting East Berlin in October 1989, moved into the crowd saying "if you want democracy, take it now, if you want democracy take it now" people heard this as a promise not to roll in the tanks if they did just that. Here, at last, was the opportunity to act! Shortly afterwards the candle-lit street demonstrations began and on 9th November the Berlin Wall was breached.
But look at this picture. That too is on the East Berlin side of the wall. Like the picture above, I took it in early February 1990. Within days of the wall being breached, SAATCHI and SAATCHI, the big West European advertising agency, had done a photo shoot. And as we now know, it was the world view and economic model epitomised by Saachi and Saachi which prevailed as the Soviet Union dismantled. Liberal democracy and free-market capitalism had become the default social arrangements for the whole world argued Francis Fukiyama in "The End of History and the Last Man".
Subsequently Fukiyama edited his views. Because what happened next was a shocking high-speed transformation in the former communist state – from which clearly we learnt nothing.
Very quickly 'the west' set about opening 'the east' to free market economic systems, opening in 1991 the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development with just that as one of its articles. Equally swiftly the inevitable happened – the more powerful market participants overwhelmed the weaker ones. As the first EBRD President Jacques Attelli lamented at the time, raw materials, icons and works of art and second-hand Kalashnikovs were hoovered out of the east. This unregulated everything-must-go shopping spree is what made the oligarchs. Five years later an International Monetary Fund economist confessed: "we made a big mistake, we may have to start again".
Since then, the same inevitable dynamic, slowed a bit by regulation but still inexorably in favour of the most powerful actors, has engulfed us all. The gap between rich and poor widens and the slope to climb from bottom to top gets steeper. Which is why, in relatively prosperous Europe and the USA an awful lot of people have been asking the same question as did the dissidents in the former Communist bloc: "is it part of the plan that the rich get richer while my chances of owning a home, of getting a half-decent job or a sensible education diminish, that the banks do seem to have got off scot-free, that the environment is making me sick and compassion for refugees is impossible? Or is government powerless to do anything else? Or worse. Is government trying to preserve the gains of the already rich – maybe even colluding with them against the struggling?"
Just as NATO was not gathering intelligence in the right places in 1989, so politicians and commentators today have missed the extent and nature of disaffection with the way politics, economics and democracy is going in some of the richest and once considered 'mature' democracies in the world. There was no 'overwhelming victory' as claimed by EU 'leavers and Trump supporters. A smallish minority of those eligible to vote (37% and 27% respectively) was sufficient to bring to power people furnished with slogans but no discernible plan for the next two weeks, never mind tackling the twin challenges of climate change and inequality. Both of which are direct consequences of an unfit-for-purpose economic logic.
This is not a pro-Hillary or pro-EU whinge. Climate change and inequality, never mind the root cause of both, did not headline in those campaigns either.
It is a howl of hope that a campaign for a better quality of democracy will come alight in Europe and America, like those candles in east Berlin in 1989. Because without the involvement and the consent of the majority no government can prevail for long – without limiting freedoms and using force that is.

The Kesa Van Osch rink from Nanaimo did just that in spades Sunday at the Victoria Curling Club, breaking open a close final at the Scotties B.C. Women's Championship with points in four straight ends to wrap up an 11-4 victory over defending champ Karla Thompson's Kamloops/Golden Ears-based rink.
Van Osch, joined by sisters Marika at third and Kalia at second, and Amy Gibson at lead, will represent B.C. at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts Canadian Women's Curling Championship in Penticton, running Jan. 27 to Feb. 4.
After going 5-2 in round robin play and placing second in a tiebreaker over Team Brown from Kamloops/Royal City and Team Gushulak from Royal City/Vancouver, Van Osch beat Thompson 10-4 in the 1 vs. 2 game on Saturday to gain a berth in the final.
Team Thompson, which nearly ran the table in round robin play by going 6-1, came from behind to beat the Corryn Brown rink 5-3 in the Sunday morning semifinal to gain another shot at Van Osch. Brown's foursome was awarded the bronze medal in their first year of play in the women's division.


Where can I get the openflowplugin code that redesigned plugin uses?
I want to make changes to openflowplugin project so I pulled the code (stable/lithium) from git, made my modifications and built it. Then I built the integration project. In karaf, I installed odl-openflowplugin-flow-services and odl-openflowplugin-drop-test and I was able to see my changes in the LOG files. However, if I install odl-openflowplugin-flow-services-li and odl-openflowplugin-drop-test-li instead, I no longer see my changes in the LOGS. So I'm lead to beleive that the openflowplugin code I have is not for the redesigned plugin. I want to know where can I get the openflowplugin code that is used while using odl-openflowplugin-flow-services-li and odl-openflowplugin-drop-test-li?


Mykonos has various boutique hotels,label-laden shops and luxury villas, Mykonos is certainly one of the must see places in Greece. .Mykonos is called the "island of celebrities" and its name is totally appropriate. Famous actors, singers, directors, football players and businessmen from all over the globe visit Mykonos every year.
1.White sand beaches across all over the island.
Mykonos beaches are famous all over the world for their golden sand and the crystal waters. As this is among the most popular tourist destinations in Greece, most Mykonos beaches are organized with many tourist facilities, from seaside accommodation to beach bars, restaurants and water sports centers. The best organized beaches in Mykonos are found on the southern coast, which get extremely overcrowded during peak season.
When the sun goes down, night clubs are the most popular places.If it's a relax time you want, then Mykonos town is for you.Restaurants serve everything from greek cousin to vegeterian meals.
You can rent a yacht and explore all the unexplored beaches of mykonos and other smaller islands around it.Very good and warm hospitality from the crew and the captain.


There is a term I learned when I was studying how to write fiction. The term is "suspension of disbelief." When writing, we have to engage our readers to the point where they stop judging things based on their perception of reality, and are willing to go with the flow of the story we are telling them.
An example of this might be the television show Gilligan's Island, which originally aired in the mid '60s. The main characters have been shipwrecked and stranded on an uncharted island near Hawaii, and the show is generally based around their (failed) attempts to get rescued. As a sitcom, the viewer is not really expected to believe the whole premise. There are numerous instances where we are asked to do away with logic and go along with the story.
The castaways are frequently visited out of the blue by other people who have somehow also ended up on the island, but the visitors always find a way off the island while the main cast never gets rescued. In the show the characters are able to fashion incredible items and inventions out of the bamboo that grows on the island, but they never manage to create anything that will help them escape the island. The radio announcements that they are able to pick up from Hawaii always come on at just the right time with just the information needed to advance the plot.
Obviously these story elements are necessary to keep the show going. If the cast was restricted to just the five main characters, we might soon get tired of them, and if the group was rescued, there would no longer be a story to tell. So rather than look at the implausibility of the whole set up, we are willing – for the sake of entertainment – to drop the realism and go along with the outlandish premises that the show is based on.
In dealing with depression, sometimes we need to suspend our disbelief about our ability to recover, and about the efficacy of our treatment. Like the laughter therapy that I mention in a previous post. When I'm really depressed, the notion that forcing myself to smile and laugh is going to help my mood seems pretty ludicrous. And yet clinical studies have shown that there is validity to that notion.
There are numerous other facets of treatment that just don't make sense at times when we are at our lowest. If we are able to get out of our own thinking ruts and are willing to give some of the therapeutic suggestions a try, we may surprise ourselves and actually see benefits.
me back to art therapy.
Since I was kind of stuck there, I started actually doing the assigned projects each day. I didn't put a lot of thought into it. I just did whatever struck me in the moment. I remember one assignment where the art therapist set out boxes of multi-colored tissue paper and asked us to create something 3-dimensional that represented our anger. Everyone started grabbing for the bright red and orange pieces of paper. I was drawn to the dark blue and black colors. I ended up making a flap out of the dark blue piece and crinkling up a small piece of the black paper into a tight little ball which I glued beneath the flap. I wasn't thinking about any specific symbolism, but when it came time to discuss our work, the therapist found a whole lot of meaning within my simple little piece, much of which actually rang true. And so I discovered things about myself that I wouldn't have learned had I not been willing to try something I didn't even believe in.
It's a lot easier to suspend our reliance on reality when watching a comedy than it is to allow our ourselves to question our beliefs around our mental health, but there's a lot bigger payoff than just a half hour's worth of entertainment. Whether we believe it or not, maybe we can just give an inch of space to the thought that there may be another reality than what our depressed minds are having us see. Unlike forsaking reality to promote the fiction, maybe we are believing the fiction and we need to suspend that in order to see the reality.
It's worth a try. We're not destined to be castaways forever.

Conor McGregor Hints At Mayweather MMA Fight, Pacquiao Boxing Match
January 13, 2020 admin0
Conor McGregor seems more focused than he has in a long time leading up to his clash with Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone at UFC 246 this weekend, which is good news for fight fans who are hoping he stays committed to competing three times in 2020. Although McGregor has a clear vision for the next stages of his UFC career, he hasn't neglected his ambitious boxing goals either.
During a recent interview with ESPN's Ariel Helwani, McGregor revealed that he had an offer to box Manny Pacquiao but the timing just wasn't right. He also floated the idea of getting in the ring with Paulie Malignaggi, who he sparred with (and had a war of words with) in preparation for the Floyd Mayweather spectacle.
It remains to be seen which fight gets done first, but McGregor tells Helwani that he will box again and he intends to hold a boxing world title before it's all said and done. Check out his thoughts about the potential bouts in the video clip embedded below.
As far as Floyd Mayweather is concerned, McGregor says he is still owed a rematch… this time inside the octagon.
"I know I'd beat Floyd if we rematched and when we rematch… It was supposed to be me boxing, then we'll do a mixed martial arts bout. That's what was said, and it came out of his mouth as well. It was not written, but it was a verbal agreement."
We all know Floyd would never agree to get in the octagon with McGregor, but it certainly seems like it's just a matter of time before the Irish superstar crosses over into the world of boxing once again.

A Supposedly Wrong "Jeopardy!" Answer Causes An Uproar On Twitter


My client has posed me with a question that is it possible to use GRC 5.3 and GRC 10.0 and can work with both versions in parallel on single backend system , in our case its ECC 600 .
As per my knowledge , Inorder to work with both versions of GRC in parallel they need two backend systems . Please let me know if iam wrong.
@sunny , Is there any document which says that both versions cannot run parallely on single RTA. Please provide the link.
my client has agreed to go with GRC 5.3 and GRC 10.0 on seperate servers .
Thanks all for your quick replies .
No, this configuration is not supported. You have to use single version plug-in/RTA on the backend system.
As far I know, GRC10 plug-in support pack 4 supports both - RTA for 5.3 and plug-in for AC10(both codes are there).
This facility is specially provided to support smooth migration and can be withdrawn in any upcoming support packages. So, I would advise not to use it for productive purpose. Use it if you want it temporarily for migration purpose.

Wahn ist eine Siedlungswüstung und war bis zum 1. April 1941 eine Gemeinde im damaligen Landkreis Aschendorf-Hümmling. Danach wurde die Siedlung geräumt, um den Kruppschen Schießplatz zu Meppen zu erweitern. Alle Gebäude wurden abgetragen und die Bewohner in Nachbargemeinden umgesiedelt.

Geografie
Die Wüstung Wahn liegt etwa auf halbem Wege zwischen Sögel und Lathen an der heutigen Landesstraße 53 an der Einmündung der Hauptstraße aus Renkenberge. Das Gebiet der ehemaligen Gemeinde ist heute aufgeteilt auf die Gemeinden Lathen, Sögel, Renkenberge und Werpeloh.

Geschichte

Um 1000 wurde Wahn im Corveyschen Register mit "Walinoon" genannt, woraus man die Siedlungsbezeichnung aus einer Personenbezeichnung herleitet, also die Ansiedlung des Wali. 1749 wurde die Antoniuskirche nach Plänen von Johann Conrad Schlaun errichtet. Eine erste feste Straße, die von Lathen nach Sögel erhielt der Ort 1868. Als Pflasterung dienten Feldsteine. Der Anschluss an das Bahnnetz durch die Eröffnung der Hümmlinger Kreisbahn erfolgte 1898.

Am 5. September 1877 wurde bei Meppen durch die Firma Krupp der Schießplatz Meppen eröffnet, auf dem Kanonen getestet wurden. 1917 traf eine Granate versehentlich das Wahner Pfarrhaus, durchschlug das Dach und explodierte in einem Aktenschrank, was zu dem Plan führte, den Meppener Schießplatz zu erweitern und das Dorf Wahn aufzulösen. Eine Kommission, zu der auch der Wahner Ortspfarrer Barenkamp gehörte, verhandelte daraufhin mit den Behörden über Enteignung und Entschädigung der Dorfbewohner. Über den bevorstehenden Abriss des Dorfes wurde im Dezember 1917 im Osnabrücker Tageblatt berichtet. Durch das Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs wurden die Pläne jedoch nicht verwirklicht.

Man vergrößerte in den 1920er Jahren die Antonius-Kirche. Sie war nun 37 Meter lang und bot 652 Sitzplätze. Nachdem 1931 der Kirchturm fertiggestellt war, erhielt die Wahner Kirche den Beinamen "Dom des Hümmlings".

1936 besuchte Adolf Hitler den Schießplatz bei Wahn und initiierte im Anschluss ein im Reichsgesetzblatt veröffentlichtes Gesetz, das die Auflösung der Gemeinde Wahn anordnete. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt war Wahn eines der größten Dörfer des Emslandes. Neben vier Gaststätten und einem Bahnhof existierten im Ort eine Molkerei und ein Sägewerk. Im Jahr 1941 wurde Wahn für die Erweiterung des Kruppschen Schießplatzes (heute WTD 91), eine Erprobungsstelle für Waffen und Munition, zerstört. Insgesamt 1.007 Einwohner Wahns wurden umgesiedelt und fanden in 67 Orten eine neue Heimat. Viele Wahner wurden in Rastdorf neu angesiedelt, andere in der Gemeinde Lathen im dort neu geschaffenen Ortsteil Wahn. Einige Familien zogen nach Schlesien und verloren nur wenige Jahre später ihr Zuhause ein zweites Mal. 1942 fand in der Antonius-Kirche ein Abschiedsgottesdienst statt, an dem rund 800 Dorfbewohner teilnahmen. Anschließend wurde die Kirche entwidmet und kurze Zeit später abgerissen.

Einwohnerentwicklung

Wahn als Ort der Erinnerung und Mahnung

2006 verabredeten einstige Dorfbewohner und ihre Nachfahren bei einem Treffen in Wahn, die Geschichte der ehemaligen Hümmlinggemeinde aufzuarbeiten und die alte Dorfstelle teilweise wieder sichtbar zu machen. Dies geschah in Zusammenarbeit mit Mitgliedern der Heimatvereine der umliegenden Orte, der Gemeinde Sögel und des Landkreises Emsland sowie in Absprache mit der Bundesforststelle Sprakelerheide und der Wehrtechnischen Dienststelle für Waffen und Munition. Die Fundamente der Wahner Kirche wurden 2007 freigelegt, neu eingefasst und gestaltet, wobei die Stufen zum Hochaltar, die Stelle des Taufbeckens und ein komplettes Mosaik zum Vorschein kamen. Man begann, auf einer Länge von 1,8 Kilometern alte Straßen wieder freizugraben. Entlang dieser Wege markieren Flinte die Hofstellen, Tafeln informieren über die ehemaligen Eigentümer und deren Verbleib.

Die Messe zum Wahner Treffen, das am 17. Juni 2007 stattfand, wurde erstmals in der "neuen" Kirche gehalten.

"Es geht nicht darum, den Ort und seine Geschichte touristisch zu vermarkten, sondern Wahn als Mahnung für die Zukunft zu erhalten und an das Schicksal der ehemaligen Bewohner zu erinnern."
(Hermann Bröring, ehemaliger Landrat des Landkreises Emsland)

Gedenken
Jährlich, am 3. Sonntag im Juni treffen sich ehemalige Einwohner (bis zu 150/200 Personen) von Wahn in ihrer ehemaligen Heimat zu einem Gottesdienst auf dem Wahner Friedhof. Im Anschluss daran findet eine Prozession zu der kleinen Gnadenkapelle statt, danach versammeln sich die Besucher im Ortskern in der Nähe ihrer ehemaligen Kirche. Diese Tradition hat schon über 60 Jahre Bestand.

Heute befindet sich an der Stelle des einstigen Dorfzentrums ein Gedenkstein und eine bronzene Gedenktafel. An die Antoniuskirche (auch als "Wahner Dom" bezeichnet), einst eine der größten Kirchen Nordwestdeutschlands, erinnert heute eine Informationstafel mit Texten und Bildern.

Im Heimathof in Sögel im sogenannten Wahnzimmer befindet sich eine Ausstellung über die zwangsumgesiedelte Gemeinde Wahn.

Manchester's Radical Mayor
By Joanna M. Williams
Known in his day as the man who built the Town Hall, Abel Heywood was a leading Manchester publisher who entertained royalty at his home and twice became Mayor of Manchester. Yet before he found success his life was one of poverty and hardship, marked by a prison term in his pursuit of a free press. A campaigner for votes for all and social reform, Heywood attempted to enter Parliament twice, but his working-class origins and radical ideas proved an insurmountable obstacle. As councillor, alderman and mayor, he worked passionately and tirelessly to build the road, railway and tram systems, develop education, improve the provision of hospitals, museums and libraries, better the living conditions of the poor, and make Manchester a great city. Going beyond the experiences of one man, this book explores the wider political, cultural and class context of the Victorian city. It is an honest tale of rags to riches that will appeal to all who wish to discover more about the dramatic history of industrial Manchester and its people.

It's just about time to say goodbye to the awesome city of Edinburgh. We thought today we would take it easy and just roam the streets checking out the street performers. On just bout every block there were acrobats, musicians, artists, jugglers, and vendors selling their wares. One of the standout acts that had me mesmerized was Juzzie Smith who is a one-man-band from Australia. He had a crowd of about 90+ people all watching in awe as he played harmonica, an electric guitar, a stomp box, a tambourine, a maraca, and a didgeridoo all the while singing. If you ever have the chance to see him perform, run, don't walk! I even shelled out £10 for his CD it was that amazing.
…promoting a show called Taekwon vs. B-Boy. Sounded interesting and we had a 2 for 1 coupon, so we went down to venue 112 to check it out and were pleasantly surprised by the performance. The dancing and martial arts worked very well together on stage with a lot of cross over. It even had it's own love story sub-plot which was quite funny.
…and then headed back to Linda's house for a farewell drink with the flatmates.
A special thanks to Linda for making our stay in Edinburgh so enjoyable. We'll never forget it!

After leaving the castle on Saturday, we passed by a building with a sign outside for "Camera Obscura and World of Illusions." From the outside it looked like a tourist trap, but we later read some pretty favorable reviews, so today we decided to check it out, and it was actually pretty cool.
The most fun part was a large dark hallway with glass on both walls stretching from floor to ceiling. Behind the glass were grids of of single points of lights that would change colors, and behind the light were mirrors. Standing in this hallway seemed like you were standing in the middle of space with multicolored stars all around you for as far as you could see.
I cranked up the exposure on the camera and moved it around a bit as the points of light changed colors to create these cool images.

Nope, we're not back in California, and that was not a typo, and it wasn't engrish. There really is a Holyrood Park here in Edinburgh, and it's about the only point in the city that has a higher altitude than the castle.
Like most days in Scotland, the rain will come and go hour by hour. When we started on the hike near the uber-modern parliament building it was a beautiful sunny day.
But once we reached the base of this extinct volcano, the dark clouds started moving in.
We already came this far, so there is no tuning back now… Onwards ho!
Jay wasn't too happy with his choice of attire once we got further up to find this was more like a hike through the Nile river.
But every few hundred yards, the slipping and slidding through mud puddles was all worth it when the sun would break through and reveal amazing views.
I really felt like I was on the top of the world.
After dominating Holyrood, we waked back up The Royal Mile, grabbed a bite to eat at a Thai/Indian restaurant, and then rushed off to one of the most popular comedy shows of the festival.

Danger. Santa Cruz Jugglers Ahead.
After leaving the castle we roamed the wet streets to explore some of the performers at this years Edinburgh International Festival.
There was a Canadian on a unicycle juggling flaming clubs, but that was nothing compared to what we saw next.
Another Canadian in a nearby plaza had just rode in (from Canada) on a motorcycle! He was a Santa Cruz trained juggler with multiple world records. He was juggling chainsaws, grenades, machetes amoungst other things. He must have sensed his fellow Santa Cruzians in the audience as he selected Jay out of the crowd for a little assistance.

Today we woke up early and headed out to see some of the many sights the city had to offer. Our first stop was to be the Edinburgh Castle that just dominated the city skyline.
…overlooking the entire city below.
…we breached the inner walls of the castle! Before us now was The Crown Room, where the infamous Crowned Jewels of Scotland are housed.
As you can see we opted for power over dexterity. Mons Meg was no joke when it came to POWER! This 6 ton bombard is capable of firing a 330 pound gun-stone nearly 2 miles!
Our choice of weapon backfired on us however. Turns out Meg's barrel burst in 1681. So sadly we will have to return to The States empty handed. We fled the castle just as the drawbridge was closing.
And headed into town to check out some of the Edinburgh Festivals street performers. But wait, who is that guy on the far right?

The most famous beauty brands launched by celebrities in 2022 the trends
David Martin December 20, 2022 Entertainment Leave a comment 8 Views
Celebrities dominate the beauty sector: the new brands for 2022
A trend that does not seem to stop. The entrance of celebrities into the world of beauty continues unabated. Even 2022, after the great revolution launched – among others – also by Rihanna, has seen an impressive increase in new celebrity-founded beauty brands. The last, in order of appearance, was the tennis player Serena Williams who, after announcing her retirement (although many hope she would change her mind), dived into wellness with Will Perfrom, a line of products designed not by chance for the well-being of athletes. But what were the VIPs who ventured into the world of beauty entrepreneurship in this calendar year?
Serena Williams and Will Perform
Let's start from the end. A few days ago, the tennis giant Serena Williams launched "Willperform", a vast range of products useful for helping your body recover after activity or training. The focus of his "recovery" brand it is in fact focused on the improvement and relief of the muscles, in short, a way to intensify the post work out. Present in the collection a roll-on, a pain relief spray and a functional refreshing product for pain relief Will Cool. The prices are accessible: from 12.99 to 15.99 dollars.
Ariana Grande launches into make-up, Lady Gaga reinvents herself
As already done in the past by Rihanna and more recently by Selenza Gomez, superstar Ariana Grande has also decided to launch herself into the ever more flourishing world of make-up with her brand rem beauty. However, the products, at least initially, have not achieved the desired results. And also them beauty gurus, influencers and youtubers who are part of the beauty community they almost entirely expressed some criticisms about the brand, considering it not particularly captivating and above all similar to others. Who knows if even the singer of Latin origin will soon want to renew her line as done this year by her more expert colleague Lady Gaga, who has in fact relaunched her Haus Labs exactly three years after her birth.
To these is added another new entry, namely Gwen Stefani, perhaps the only one who can really be accused of having arrived culpably late. Her iconic style, with a signature look long remained imprinted in the iconography of pop music especially in the zero years, it could be translated into face palettes much earlier. Will his GXVE be able to outperform the competition from the younger female singers?
Celebrity beauty brands: Scarlett Johansson's Skin Care
The parterre dedicated to skin care was also very large, where the majestic actress Scarlett Johansson sat in the front row, launching herself on the market with The Outset, a line dedicated mainly to sensitive skin. The starting point is precisely Scarlett's skin care, derived from the constant stress on the set due to makeup and lights. Entry into the world beauty prompted the actress to finally be present on social media, landing at the age of 37 on both Instagram and Tik Tok.
Particularly convincing then what was done by the Canadian supermodel Winnie Harlow, who thought of Cay Skin, a particularly inclusive line of sunscreens, therefore also created to cater for dark complexions, whose effects of the sun's rays are too often underestimated. Lastly, in addition to Kate Moss who launched in the Wellness sector "Cosmos", it is also important to mention Haily Bieber, who became, among other things, an entrepreneur and founder of Rhode Skin, the perfect collection of products to achieve the iconic glass skin. However, the super celebrity also had to settle a lawsuit due to a case of homonymy with a Los Angeles clothing brand. Problem that did not affect the sale at all.

Five years ago, in Berlin, I was walking along a strange cobblestoned half-street criss-crossed by bike paths that was exactly the kind of street many Americans probably associate with Europe: poorly designed, public in an aggressive sort of way, probably funded by high taxes and useful to almost no one.
I'd never seen a Holocaust "joke" aired so publicly outside of the Sarah Silverman Show or Curb Your Enthusiasm. The differences between the U.S. and Germany, in that moment, seemed less "wacky" and more chilling.
Later, I'd see Berliners wearing the neo-Nazi brand Thor Steiner — which seems to have borrowed its graphic design department from Ed Hardy — on my subway ride to work. Throughout my four-and-a-half year stint in Berlin, I'd discover that German racism was blatant. It didn't hide behind Twitter avatars; it marched in leather boots in the center of Berlin's busiest shopping districts.
Today, though, I wouldn't be shocked to see the Holocaust joked about in a poster on an American street. This election has numbed me to the twisted methods anti-Semites use to get reactions out of Jews, often on Twitter. Scroll through the mentions of the average Jewish journalist's account and you'll be treated to lots of "lulz" about ovens, the "Arbeit Macht Frei" gates and other Holocaust tropes. It's a cesspool that has made me feel unsafe in America for the first time in my life.
Now, in the midst of a resurgence of hate crimes — more than 300 have been reported since election day, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, roughly the amount usually reported in five or six months — Donald Trump has anointed the former publisher of Breitbart as his new chief White House strategist. It looks like the same racists who've terrorized Jewish writers online will now have a surrogate within spitting distance of the Oval Office.
Bannon is a violent, homophobic misogynist accused of having beaten his wife. He believes that progressivism is nothing more than a philosophy of victimhood. Breitbart, the site he led for more than four years, regularly posts articles with charming headlines like "Would You Rather Your Child Had Feminism or Cancer?" "Bill Kristol: Republican Spoiler, Renegade Jew," and "Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy." Bannon's ex-wife has testified that he "doesn't like Jews" and didn't want his children to go to school with them.
In the aftermath of Bannon's appointment, I was reminded how I felt in Berlin when a sense of security I'd taken for granted suddenly evaporated.
In Germany, I was able to take an iota of comfort in the country's centrist governing coalition and the existence of the "antifa," or anti-fascists, who vastly outnumber neo-Nazis and would organize counter-rallies when right-wing skinheads dared to march on the streets in the middle of Berlin. Germany also has NGOs, like Exit Germany, dedicated to helping neo-Nazis who decide they want to leave the subculture. In 2011, the group distributed souvenir t-shirts emblazoned with pro-nationalist text at a white pride rock concert; when washed, the shirts revealed an anti-fascist message offering assistance in escaping the neo-Nazi scene.
Combating the radicalization of young Germans is also a priority of Germany's domestic intelligence agency. When the most populous state, North-Rhine Westphalia, saw a surge of attacks on refugee homes, the government — not a privately funded organization like the Southern Poverty Law Center — reported on it. There's an awareness that neo Nazi communities can provide a sense of belonging to the disaffected, and that fighting them requires playful and subversive tactics, like tricking a neo-Nazi group into raising thousands for an anti-extremist organization.
Of course, Germany still has many dark forces with which to contend. German hipster neo-Nazis, or nipsters, are still a thing, and even launched a "vegan cooking channel" on YouTube to attract new members. The German refugee crisis has also led to the ascension of groups like Alternative für Deutschland, led by a woman whom many see as a German Donald Trump. Merkel, under scrutiny from all corners of the country, is still a powerful defender of liberalism in Europe — but she is "tired," according to associates of hers who spoke with The New York Times.
The only answer is to hound Republicans on the rise of online white supremacy the way they hound Democrats on the rise of radical Islam in the West. We should force them to respond to the anti-Semitism, racism and ethno-nationalism that have propelled Steve Bannon to a White House role. We should also contact our representatives — via old-fashioned telephone, so they'll be forced to listen — and tell them to denounce Bannon and the white supremacist horse he rode in on.

Natura 2000 Day – a valuable network of important and special sites
Natura2000Day CorsFochno Cors Caron peatlands LIFE
By Dana Thomas
UPDATE – 2021 Status of the Natura 2000 Network in the UK
The UK left the European Union on 31 January 2020. The transition period ended on 31 December 2020. As of 1 January 2021 the UKs Natura 2000 sites will be known as The National Sites Network and includes Special Protection Areas (SPA) and Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) and represent the very best of Wales' nature. For more information see the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2019 legislation.
This year #Natura2000Day falls on 21 May and to celebrate this blog looks at a project supported by Natural Resources Wales that is restoring two Natura 2000 sites (hereafter known as The National Sites Network) and Wales's rarest habitat, lowland raised peat bogs.
Wales has 21 Special Protection Areas for vulnerable birds and 95 Special Areas of Conservation for other rare species and threatened natural habitats.
Together they are known as The National Sites Network, and form an unparalleled network of importance for nature conservation.
Wales' National Sites Network covers more than 700,000 hectares (8.5% of Welsh land area and 35% of territorial waters).
The value of the National Sites Network
The National Sites Network provide a vital sanctuary for species and habitats which are internationally threatened, they contribute significantly to the Welsh economy through tourism, recreation, farming, fishing, and forestry.
These sites also provide essential life support services for all of us, such as purifying our drinking water and storing carbon, and showcase our natural environment at its best, giving enjoyment to millions of visitors every year.
Protected habitats range from ancient oak woodlands, upland heathland, peatlands, sand dunes, rivers and lakes marine habitats of estuaries, rocky coastline and open sea.
To improve and protect these sites focused and coordinated action is crucial.
Protecting National Sites in Wales
One of the first national peatland restoration projects is the LIFE Welsh Raised Bogs (WRB) project, the innovative project is funded by an EU LIFE programme grant, Welsh Government and Snowdonia National Park Authority.
In the UK a staggering 94% of lowland raised bogs have been lost, the LIFE WRB project aims to restore seven of the very best examples in Wales.
The sites are home to important and rare plants such as the peat forming sphagnum (bog mosses) and rare wildlife such as the rosy marsh moth caterpillar and the iconic bog rosemary.
Two of the main sites the project is focusing its restoration work on are part of the National Sites Network, Cors Caron National Nature Reserve (NNR) and Cors Fochno, part of the Dyfi NNR, both in Ceredigion.
Upland and lowland Peatlands extend over an estimated 4% of the Welsh landscape supporting many important habitats and species. They are an important natural resource for carbon storage and capture, the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions, biodiversity and water regulation.
Restoring Welsh peatlands will begin the process of reversing the decline in our environment for future generations and at the same time keep vast carbon stocks locked in the ground.
Restoring our peatlands
Lowland raised bogs get their name because they are domed shaped areas of peat - built up over thousands of years.
Raised peat bogs are made up of carbon storing peat and although peatlands only cover 3% of the worlds surface, they store 30% of the soil carbon and are therefore a vital part of the fight against climate change.
The LIFE Welsh Raised Bogs project started restoration work last year, and the project is now starting to see positive results.
The project has so far created over 18,000 metres (12 miles) of peat bunds (low level 25cm high banks of peat follow the natural contours) on Cors Caron and Cors Fochno.
The work aims to restore more natural water levels and slow the loss of water in the upper layer of the raised peat dome, holding water on the bog for longer. Peat bunds stabilise the water levels to within 10cm of the bog surface for 95% of the year.
By creating these bunds, it is estimated that almost 85 hectares (210 acres) of bog habitat will benefit and be returned to good condition helping to create new peat and lock in more carbon.
Restoring natural water levels on raised bogs will ensure they stay wetter for longer, helping to create areas where important sphagnum (bog moss) can establish and thrive.
A few months after starting the work, there is already encouraging signs that a more natural water level is starting to form.
Fighting against climate change
Sphagnum moss is the habitat engineer of raised bogs with its amazing ability to hold onto water and resist decay. Once it partially decays it forms dark brown peat soil.
A diversity of sphagnum types is a sign of a healthy bog, and the peat it creates naturally absorbs and stores tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere, helping in the fight against climate change.
By the end of the project over 900 hectares of raised bog will have been restored in Wales, this will see a reduction in CO2 emissions by about 400 kt a year - equal to around 7% of all Welsh transport-related emissions, and 76% of Ceredigion's total CO2 emissions.

Why is the cryx book taking so long?
The reason for this is simple. I am having a hard time getting my hands on the cryx book.
With the cryx book I am hoping to fix the other small thing you people have been reporting, so I am listening!
Outstanding army construction program - always my go-to tool for building armies (this is me avoiding copyright issues).
Add Drake MacBane for the Mercenaries.
Sword Knights aren't included in pNemo's tiers.
There is still a problem with Kaelyssa, Night's Whisper tier at the third level you still have it at "Mage Hunter Assassins" when it should be "Mage Hunters" for the simple fact you can't have more than 2 Mage Hunter Assassin in a one Caster game, and also on Ravyn, Eternal Light second tire you can include a free "Mage Hunter" that should mean Narn, Mage Hunter of Ios, even if hes needed for tire 3.
for Vyros, I noticed that when you add the second unit of Sentinals for his theme army, he should be able to add a second UA for them. He gets one for free but can have a second.
I believe that this is not working at this point.

Only 32 Percent of Millennials Approve of Trump
Forty-one percent of 18-29 year-olds give Trump an 'F'.
by Joshua Alvarez April 25, 2017 January 9, 2022

Only thirty-two percent of millennials (18-29 year-olds) approved of President Trump's job performance in the lead up to his 100-day mark, according to a new Harvard IOP poll released on Tuesday. When asked to grade his performance forty-one percent gave him an "F" compared to only ten percent who awarded him an "A."
Pluralities of millennials believe most of Trump's major policy goals will make America worse, including repealing and replacing Obamacare, the refugee ban and Muslim ban, and building a southern border wall. There was one Trump policy that 60 percent of millennials thought would made America better: cracking down on countries that engage in illegal or unfair trade practices.
"We found that fifty percent of Democrats actually believe that this makes America better. Thirty-seven percent believe it would have a positive impact on them and their family," John Della Volpe, Director of Polling at the Institute of Politics, told reporters in a conference call. Skepticism of free trade, particularly the Trans Pacific Partnership negotiated by the Obama administration, was a noticeable area of agreement between Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders, who, according to last spring's Harvard IOP poll, was the only major party candidate to attract net favorability from millennials.
The survey of 2,654 18-29 year-olds nationwide was conducted between March 10-24. During those two weeks, Trumpcare collapsed in Congress, a federal court in Hawaii blocked Trump's revised travel ban, the White House released an extremist budget proposal, tensions with North Korea were ratcheting up, and Devin Nunes was—in the most bizarre (and transparent) way possible—attempting to obstruct any serious investigation of the Trump campaign's ties to Russia.
Millennials had a significantly lower approval rating of the president than the national average. The RealClearPolitics poll of polls had Trump's job approval rating on March 23 at 42.9 percent. This latest Harvard IOP poll also found that trust in major institutions remains low among young people. Trust in Congress (20 percent) remained low compared to five years ago (23 percent). Likewise for the federal government as a whole (24 percent). Trust in the office of the president has sharply declined, from 41 percent in 2012 to 24 percent in 2017. Yet, significantly more young people than in 2012 support government action to curb climate change and reduce poverty.
Erik Fliegauf, a sophomore at Harvard and the student chair of the Harvard Public Opinion Project, told me that young people's negative attitudes towards public institutions if borne from their experiences. "The distrust of institutions…it's because we've only ever seen, growing up, a Congress that wasn't willing to compromise or a federal government that wasn't working properly. So you really can't blame young Americans for kind of feeling disillusioned with politics if that's the only thing they've seen."

In the Footsteps of Conrad – Conrad Year
In 2017, we celebrate the 160th anniversary of the birth of Joseph Conrad Korzeniowski, one of the most important representatives of world literature who was of Polish origin. The Krakow Festival Office and Krakow UNESCO City of Literature joined the celebration of the Conrad Year by organising a series of projects commemorating the writer and his relationship with Krakow.
We want to demonstrate that Joseph Conrad's work can appeal to readers of all ages, and that the questions raised in his texts remain up to date even today.
Individual projects cover various fields of art and culture, using modern methods of promotion and education. Their theme is a journey understood as Conrad's life path that started in Poland and led him to the furthest corners of the world. We want to emphasise the relationship of the author of Lord Jim with Krakow, the city where he lived from 1869 to 1874 and visited again in 1914. Therefore, during the Conrad Year, we will discover the traces of the writer's presence not only in the texts on culture, but also in the urban space itself.
Conrad in Krakow – The Most Important Places
12 Poselska Street – a plaque commemorating the place where Conrad lived with his gravely ill father, Apollo Korzeniowski;
Floriańska Street – according to the writer's memoir, on this street, "on the second floor of the third house counting from St. Florian's Gate" (which remains unidentified), there was a male dormitory where Conrad lived after his father's death;
9 Szpitalna Street – the building where Conrad lived with his grandmother, Teofila Bobrowska;
12 Św. Anny Street – St. Anne Middle School (now Bartłomiej Nowodworski High School), most likely attended by Conrad;
5 Sławkowska Street (Grand Hotel) – the hotel where Conrad stayed with his wife and sons during his visit to Krakow in 1914, on the eve of the outbreak of World War I,
Planty, the corner of Pijarska and Sławkowska Streets – Joseph Conrad's literary bench, part of the City Codes project.
Workshops for children
Joseph Conrad was not only an outstanding writer, but also a man with a fascinating biography. We want to introduce Captain Conrad to his youngest future readers as a traveller, adventurer and explorer. We believe that learning about his attractive life story will encourage young people to read the writer's works in the future. Classes are intended for children aged 5 to 12. As part of the "Between the Land and the Sea" series, eight workshops will be held on the occasion of events such as the Children's Day, Miłosz Festival, Conrad Festival and St. Nicholas' Day.
On 22-23 July 2017, travel journalism workshops, inspired by travel and nautical tendencies in the work of the author of Typhoon, were conducted by Marcin Kącki and Dariusz Rosiak – journalists, reporters, leading representatives of Polish non-fiction genres. Participants were instructed how to give an account of their travels, had the opportunity to participate in field exercises, and learned about various forms of non-fiction literature.
Crime Workshops with Joseph Conrad
Joseph Conrad was a precursor of many popular literary genres, including modern crime novel (an example of which is "The Secret Agent"). Hence, the two-part programme of crime workshops includes a meeting with authors of popular detective novels who will introduce participants to the secrets of a writer's workshop. One of the guests will be Filip Modrzejewski, the acquisition editor in the W.A.B. publishing company.
Literary Walks
A series of literary walks, which engage both locals and tourists in exploring the City of the Kings from its "literary" side, has enjoyed immense popularity for years. Accompanied by experts, the participants of the walks will track Conrad's presence on the streets of Krakow. The action includes both open literary walks and walks on request for students and teachers.
Joseph Conrad's impact is not limited to literature; it is also present in popular culture and films. During the Conrad film review we will track Conrad's influences in cinema. Meetings will be held in the Kino Pod Baranami cinema, and introductions provided by expert will serve as inspiration for exploration.
Reading Lessons with Joseph Conrad
Reading Lessons is a nationwide project to promote reading among teenagers that has been organised for many years by the Tygodnik Powszechny Foundation. The intention of these out-of-class meetings with literature is to encourage high school students to concentrate on reading and develop critical thinking. Participants will reflect together on how literature can provide answers to the most pressing challenges of the present day, such as issues related to migration, geopolitics, terrorism, otherness, travel and the widely understood crisis.
As part of the Conrad Year celebration, the Faculty of Polish Studies at the Jagiellonian University, together with the Joseph Conrad Research Centre, under the auspices of the Krakow UNESCO City of Literature, will hold an interdisciplinary academic conference CONRAD and POP-TEXTS, which will take place on 25 November 2017.
Conrad's postcard from Krakow!
As part of the Conrad Year we have issued postcards and stamps commemorating the writer – a Polish-born author who became one of the most prominent figures in world literature. You can now send your greetings from literary Krakow to any place around the world!
On women and men in Conrad's prose
A new book, Konwencje, stereotypy, złudzenia. Relacje kobiet i mężczyzn w prozie Josepha Conrada (Conventions, stereotypes and illusions. Relations between men and women in Joseph Conrad's prose) by Monika Malessa-Drohomirecka – a long-standing curator at the Jagiellonian University's Joseph Conrad Research Centre – is due out in late November, to be released by the Universitas publishing house. The Krakow Festival Office has provided patronage to the publication.

Maybe her intention was that he help her to stop people from interfering with her death, but by saving her, he brought about the opposite outcome. Perhaps this is why she continued to use him.
This is all speculation, based on nothing concrete.
Or perhaps Silent Hill 3 sheds some light on this. She both wanted to die, and didn't want to die. She wanted to stop her mother but she was also an abused, scared little girl who was about to die.
Good point. I've often explained Alessa's motivation to people as "she just wants a normal childhood."
I have a few things to add to this discussion, even though it died 2 years ago. Please don't hate me because I while agree that there are things that happened in 0rigins that were a slap in the face to the continuity of this series, it still is canon. My example for this is something mentioned in the early pages in this thread, but not put together: George Lucas and the Star Wars franchise. George Lucas creates the original trilogy, people love the original trilogy, then years later he goes back in with special effects and retcons the crap out of it. Then he made the prequels, which created more problems with continuity and little plot holes here and there. So, is the original trilogy the canon, or is it the revised versions of the trilogy? And now that Disney owns the franchise, if we don't like the new films, will they not be included in the canon?
Look what George Lucas did to his own work when it was in his own hands and he controlled it! Team Silent was no more, so maybe they figured that any retcons and continuity errors were no longer their problem. What were they going to be able to do about it? Climax had the info and chose to ignore/change it, and even if they wanted to, I doubt that Team Silent could do anything about it at that point.
So, let's say it is canon with pieces that you can just substitute with previously established info in your own mind and ignore the little retcons and plot holes Climax created, and you will feel better.
Gee, I just wish someone would realease something like, "Silent Hill, Alessa Trilogy" or something, with SH0's, 1's and 3's remakes, fixing up the plot and stuff.
I also wish this, it would be nice to see a more polished Silent Hill origins, maybe do it with more focus on Travis story, instead of trying to do both Alessa's and Travis story together in the same game.

300 km range electric scooter goes on sale in France next month
September 11, 2020 12:01 pm by Bala Natarajan
French brand, RedE Group will be launching the 2GO electric scooter in its home market next month. The RedE 2GO is the first e-scooter to offer a range of up to 300 km in a single charge.
RedE 2GO was first unveiled at the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show (Las Vegas) and looks to banish the range anxieties of electric scooter riders with specifications that is unheard of for this class of vehicle. The RedE 2GO is powered by 4 interconnected batteries that are swappable, manged by RED.E BBI intelligent battery management system. It comes in three versions: E50, E100 and E125. The battery management system operates the other batteries for the scooter to run normally, even if one of them fails.

Battery Life 2,500 recharge cycles 2,500 recharge cycles 2,500 recharge cycles
Top Speed 45 km/h 80 km/h 120 km/h
For hassle-free ownership, the batteries last for a lifespan of 2,500 cycles that translates to over 180,000 km or around 10 years of use, against other batteries that have a life of about 4 years. Two batteries are stowed from the top and the other two from the left side. The batteries can be charged to full capacity in two and a half hours and the charging stops automatically once they are completely charged.
A 7-inch touchscreen dashboard (running Android 9) supports 4G connectivity, and displays all the necessary information including the navigation, nearest charging station location etc. The 2GO has a 60 per cent gradability and in such cases, the power delivery is automatically adjusted.
The RedE 2GO comes equipped with the RED.E SODB on-board computer developed in-house that detects whether any parts need to be repaired or replaced, allowing the owners to accordingly schedule the service. The company will also be launching the RedE App along with the 2GO's launch. The app can be used to access a wide range of information like the status of batteries, vehicle parts, GPS location, etc. Using the app, the rider can also lock the e-scooter automatically when he or she moves away and restart when they come back. The 2GO also has an emergency system integrated into it that sends alerts in the event of an accident.

Let's Ask
What is Happening in Myanmar, and Why?
Let's ask... Ronald Holzhacker, Swe Swe Aye and Yuyun Wahyuningrum
On February 1st the military of Myanmar arrested civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi and took control of the country. Since then thousands of protesters hit the streets to demand the return of democracy. But while the protests grow bigger everyday, the junta has also escalated its use of force, causing at least 70 deaths at the time of writing. It is difficult to understand the situation in Myanmar without having some knowledge of the history and cultural background of the country. What is happening, and why? In an effort to provide more context and insight we have invited three individuals who bridge academia and societal engagement to lend perspective and awareness of an on-going humanitarian and political crisis in governance and society in Southeast Asia. They will address the critical question 'how are people, within and outside the country, responding to the overthrow of democracy and human violations in Myanmar?'.
Ronald Holzhacker, University of Groningen, will interview Swe Swe Aye, a medical doctor and public health professional from Myanmar, who has been raising the alarm from her home in Amsterdam. He will also interview Yuyun Wahyuningrum from Jakarta, the Indonesian Representative to the human rights body AICHR, who is in the process of completing a PhD in human rights at Erasmus University Rotterdam. She has taken an active role within civil society and the institutions of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) to raise critical issues about the current situation in Myanmar.
In Let's Ask (before: Ask a Scientist) Groningen's finest researchers share their knowledge to provide context to that recurring 'thing' in the news and will answer your questions.
