UN humanitarian chief due in Tehran tomorrow
TEHRAN (FNA)- UN Humanitarian Chief Valerie Amos will arrive in Tehran on Wednesday to discuss the crisis in Yemen with senior Iranian officials.
The UN humanitarian chief will meet Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tomorrow to brief him on the situation in Yemen.
On Wednesday, Amos and Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian in a telephone conversation discussed the latest conditions in Yemen, specially immediate dispatch of humanitarian aid to the war-stricken nation.
During the phone talk, Amir Abdollahian blasted the Saudi regime for its aggressive moves against Yemen, and said, "Unfortunately the people of different regions of Yemen are suffering from a lack of the most basic and essential needs, including water, bread and medicine due to the continued Saudi-led military operations and the impossibility of sending humanitarian aid to that country."
"The Islamic Republic of Iran has made a lot of efforts to send medicine and foodstuff through the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to Yemen, but lack of cooperation by Saudi Arabia has blocked these efforts and in case this situation continues the humanitarian disaster will be intensified in Yemen," he added.
Amos, for her part, said that the UN has been considering dispatch of humanitarian aid to Yemen since the outbreak of the crisis in that country, but it has failed in its efforts as the two sides have not agreed on a ceasefire.
Yesterday, Zarif called on the UN to create a safe zone for unloading humanitarian aid to Yemen, adding that Tehran's 4-step Yemen peace initiative is the only logical plan for resolving the crisis in the Arab country.
"We have serious concerns about the current conditions in Yemen and the humanitarian crisis in the country and believe that the political solution is the only existing solution and national talks should start," Zarif said in a joint press conference with his Hungarian counterpart Péter Szijjártó in Tehran on Monday.
"We hope that a permanent truce will be implemented in Yemen as soon as possible," he added.
Stressing the necessity of an immediate halt to air raids on civilian airports by the Saudi-led coalition, Zarif said, "The UN should create a protected zone in Yemen for sending humanitarian aids."
He also reminded of Iran's 4-step Yemen peace initiative presented to the UN before the start of the Saudi-led military aggression, and said, "It is the only logical plan existing now."
In April, Zarif wrote a letter to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, and demanded adoption of the necessary moves by the world body to put an immediate end to the bloodshed, describing the conditions on the ground in Yemen as "alarming".
"The Islamic Republic of Iran believes that all efforts, particularly those by the United Nations, should be guided, in conformity with the Charter of the United Nations and fundamental principles of international humanitarian law, by the following objectives: 1. Ceasefire and an immediate end to all foreign military attacks; 2. Unimpeded urgent humanitarian and medical assistance to the people of Yemen; 3. Resumption of Yemeni-lead and Yemeni-owned national dialogue, with the participation of the representatives of all political parties and social groups; 4. Establishment of an inclusive national unity government," Zarif said in his letter.
Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen for 55 days now to restore power to fugitive president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh. The Saudi-led aggression has so far killed at least 3,815 Yemenis, including hundreds of women and children.
Hadi stepped down in January and refused to reconsider the decision despite calls by Ansarullah revolutionaries of the Houthi movement.
Despite Riyadh's claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi warplanes are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.
On April 21 and May 12, Saudi Arabia declared end to Yemen airstrikes after weeks of bombings, but it continued round-the-clock airstrikes.

European countries with the higher WWII death rates, seem to have lower COVID-19 mortality rates.

Sean Fleming Senior Writer, Formative Content
This article is part of the The Davos Agenda
New research looks at how major catastrophes can lead some countries to build greater resilience into their structures.
People who experienced World War II are more likely to display personal resilience. Better dietary habits and exercise, plus greater levels of trust, have all helped.
European countries with the highest World War II death rates tend to have lower COVID-19 mortality rates.
That's the hypothesis put forward in "Scarred but Wiser: World War II's COVID Legacy", a working paper from the World Bank and National Bureau of Economic Research employees. The reason for this might be that exposure to a major systemic shock, such as war or disease, can help build stronger responses to such shocks in the future.
Building trust: Here's what you need to know about The Davos Agenda 2021
UN economist: We need a post-war playbook for a post-COVID recovery
The economics of neutral countries during World War 2
This topic is of particular relevance as the world edges closer towards a post-pandemic era. With vaccination programmes under way across many parts of the world, there is a growing international call for more sustainable growth and development – much of which forms the backdrop to The Davos Agenda, 25-29 January 2021.
World War II: Looking east
In their report, the authors set out to determine whether there is a connection between the death tolls of these two major calamities. Data abounds for World War II, but much of it is based on assumptions and estimates, as war provides a poor foundation for statistical reliability.
COVID-19 losses and World War 2 casualties.
Image: World Bank
The country that suffered the highest number of casualties was the Soviet Union, which no longer exists and is, instead, now 15 sovereign states. This, too, makes accurate comparisons complicated.
The Soviet Union experienced a death toll in the war of perhaps as many as 27 million people. That number is made up of 11.4 million military deaths, up to 10 million civilian deaths due to military activity, and perhaps as many as 9 million more deaths caused by disease or starvation.
The three largest former Soviet republics are Russia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. Here are their population figures, along with confirmed cases and deaths relating to COVID-19 (all COVID-19 data via Johns Hopkins University of Medicine and was accurate as per 18 January 2021).
Population: 144.48 million
Confirmed cases: 3.56 million
Confirmed deaths: 65,059
Population: 44.62 million
Confirmed cases: 1.2 million
Confirmed cases: 78,036
Confirmed deaths: 619
"Past experience with a big shock teaches people about the gains from investing in adaptation and protection, which brings benefits if a future big shock is realized," the report's authors write. "On the other hand, with little or no direct experience of a big shock, the expected benefits from such investments will be lower."
Put plainly, investing in social well-being and welfare, in the aftermath of catastrophe, will have clear benefits to society. Those benefits are likely to include building housing to a higher standard, providing better healthcare, and so on. It doesn't end there, though.
Beyond those obvious, practical benefits there exists a social cohesion that makes the citizens of that country more likely to behave in ways that minimize the impact of future shocks, according to the report.
The authors analyzed survey data from 35 countries across Europe and Central Asia and found a positive correlation between experiences of World War II and "contemporary participation in collective actions and community groups".
They also determined that people who experienced World War II during their early years were likely to display increased "individual resilience and optimism about life, leading to a higher probability of survival".
A global correlation
Although mostly concerned with Europe, the report's authors also examined comparable data from other regions. Overall, they concluded that exposure to war was likely to enhance what they characterize as social cooperation. This was borne out by data from Nepal, Sierra Leone, Tajikistan and Uganda, among others.
"Our reasoning is that countries with larger prior human losses from World War II will have been more inclined to make investments that help facilitate greater willingness in the population to behave in ways that reduce the human toll of the pandemic," the report states. "Voluntary compliance with various non-pharmaceutical interventions (a healthy diet, good sleep, exercise, etc) depends on people's trust in each other, and the strength of the social fabric more generally."

7 Things We Want to See in a Xena: Warrior Princess Reboot
By Liz Ohanesian on July 22, 2015 · 5:00 am · Comments ()
Screen shot of Xena: Warrior Princess
On Monday, rumors surfaced that Xena: Warrior Princess would get the reboot treatment from NBC. According to Hollywood Reporter, the network and executive producers Rob Tapert and Sam Raimi are looking for writers to give the 1990s fantasy series an updated spin.
Of course, these are just rumors at this point, something that star Lucy Lawless tweeted herself. Just the mention of a possible new Xena gets fans heads spinning with what should or shouldn't be in the show. Yes, we're weighing in with our own thoughts on the subject.
Xena is beloved by a lot of people, as conventions dedicated to the show might indicate. With that in mind, it's entirely possible that a reboot would crush the hopes and dreams of former Xena watchers and spark much Facebook moaning in the same way that Jem and the Holograms movie has. On the other hand, it could turn into a project that captures the hearts of the old school fans, much in the way that Sailor Moon Crystal did. If the powers that be do want to breath some life into the 20-year-old franchise, here's what we think should be included.
1. Bring Back Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor.
Is it really Xena without Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor?
It's not Xena without Lucy Lawless. Sure, another actor can probably kick, elbow and flip her enemies to the ground just as well as Lawless. However, the Warrior Princess' true power is in Lawless' pale blue eyes. That's a hard thing to replicate. As Xena, Lawless' stares are as sharp as her swords. Then there are those side-eye glances that she throws whenever Xena doesn't have time to deal with someone's crap. There are whole lessons in "How to Give Attitude" that could be based solely on this show.
But, it's also not Xena: Warrior Princess without Renee O'Connor's Gabrielle. Even if the two weren't to return to their original roles, they should have some sort of cameo.
Lawless' Xena and O'Connor's Gabrielle are a perfect team in that they, on some level are opposites. Xena is cynical, hardened by the bad that she has seen in the world and burdened by the mistakes of her past. Gabrielle is naive and truly believes that good will win. They need each other to give the adventures a sense of balance.
Moreover, the chemistry between Lawless and O'Connor as Xena and Gabrielle is intense. Even early in the first season, they give the travel companions a more-than-friendship vibe. (See the scene when Xena hangs chained in a prison in "The Reckoning.") That connection only gets stronger as the seasons progress. This leads to our second point.
2. Xena and Gabrielle's Relationship Needs to Be Explored Further.
Deep down, we all know that there's more to Xena and Gabrielle's relationship than simple friendship.
Xena: Warrior Princess is as much about the relationship between the titular character and her trusted sidekick as it is about the constant fight for justice. In that respect, the show is similar to another '90s cult hit, X-Files, in that there's a "will-they-or-won't-they" element that kept the fans watching. The difference, though, is that in Xena, the two characters in question are both female. At that time, just the suggestion that two might also be romantic partners was enough to make it quite progressive. But, times have changed. Same-sex marriage is now legal in the U.S., as well as other countries across the world, and portraying gay and lesbian couples on television, even in commercials, is no longer a controversial decision. It's a smart one.
That said, if Xena: Warrior Princess were to return in a rebooted form, Xena and Gabrielle's relationship needs to be a big part of the show. The ambiguity of their friendship/possible romance makes for nail-biting TV and when Xena makes comments like "Gabrielle, you are a gift to me" (in "A Solstice Carol") you can't help but wonder what she really means. By the end of the series, though, it's obvious that the two share a connection far deeper than even the most intense of platonic friendships. Now, it might mean a lot to fans to come out and say, "Yes, Xena and Gabrielle are in love with each other" from the start of the series.
3. Keep It Campy.
It's not Xena unless the encounters are larger than life.
Television has changed drastically since Xena: Warrior Princess first popped up on the small screen. Back then, a show like this was best suited for syndication as the major networks weren't airing big, epic fantasy tales and cable television hadn't quite cornered the original series market yet. Xena was for people who didn't want to spend their weekends watching sports. It was fun and campy, with over-the-top fight scenes and special effects. That's part of why it worked on so many levels. When you have something that's made for a cult audience who appreciates these elements of the show, you can have a show centered around two women concerned with much more than their dating lives.
Now, however, the television industry takes fantasy seriously, and while that could mean that a new show would work with greater financial support, it might also take away what was beautiful about the original. Do we really want a Xena that resembles Game of Thrones? I don't. In fact, a super-serious approach to Xena would likely suck, forcing fans to exist in a world littered with spoiler alerts and thinkpieces about how Xena's butt-kicking isn't really feminist. If the show stays campy, we might be spared of this horrible fate.
4. Keep the Anachronisms Too.
Santa Claus' origins are in ancient Greece?
I assumed that Xena: Warrior Princess was set in ancient Greece, given that it's a spinoff of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and there are references to Greek cities and mythological figures. But, maybe it's the beginning of the Roman Empire since Caesar and Brutus figure into the season 4 episode titled, naturally, "The Ides of March." Seasons earlier, though, the show gives its own version of the Santa Claus legend, which would have taken place long after the founding of the Roman Empire.
Part of the charm of Xena: Warrior Princess is that if you're looking for at historical cues, nothing will make sense. It might make the logical part of your mind spin with confusion, but, sometimes you have to shut off that part of the brain and just enjoy the story.
Since Xena went off the air, there have been some really interesting shows that at least strived to capture a certain period of of history, even if they too weren't completely accurate. While Xena is based more in fantasy than fact, there might be an urge to update it with a vibe that's more like Rome than the original series.
5. Please Don't Change the Episodic Structure.
Xena doesn't need to be a soap opera.
I probably haven't seen every episode of Xena: Warrior Princess and I definitely didn't see them in order. However, that doesn't ruin the experience of watching the original show. Like Highlander, the early seasons of X-Files and a host of other genre programs that existed in the '90s, Xena wasn't made for binge watching. You could tune in whenever you had the chance and still make sense of what was happening. Back then, if I wanted to watch a soap opera, I would tune into One Life to Live or All My Children. Now, nearly everything that isn't a sitcom is a soap opera.
I want a return to shows that we don't have to watch in order, to genre series that we can enjoy at face value without constantly trying to solve guess who will die or whose identity isn't what he/she says it is. Not everything has to be a quest for an Iron Throne or the slow-motion demise of a complicated antihero.
6. Never Lose the Girl Power.
Warrior Princess/Feminist Icon
There are a lot of bizarre episodes of Xena: Warrior Princess – actually, the show is overall pretty weird – but one of the strangest is "The Xena Scrolls." It's an Indiana Jones-style episode filled with awkward accents and centered around two archaeologists played by Lawless and O'Connor who are the daughters of archaeologists and, on first meeting, don't particularly get along well. The interesting moment comes when Lawless mentions, "maybe we're both living in our daddys' shadows, as different as those shadows are."
Regardless of how odd and, sometimes nonsensical, the stories in Xena: Warrior Princess gets, there's always these theme of female empowerment. These are well-rounded female characters, the type that people often say don't exist in great numbers on television and in film. Xena and Gabrielle live independent lives and they make lots of mistakes, but still show a lot of strength and courage as their characters grow with every passing season. Moreover, they constantly fight for the underdogs, people whose voices aren't heard and whose lives are negatively impacted by those with power.
If there's a time to bring these themes back to television, it's now. That could happen with a reboot, but then again, it might not. Let's make sure it does.
7. Hang on to The Classic Xena Costume.
Xena's costume is still hip.
It wasn't the only outfit Xena wore, but the Warrior Princess' leather and metal battle gear was integral the look of the show. When the opening sequence hit with close-ups of the costume, it was a sign that Xena was about to kick some butt.
No doubt, an updated costume would fuel some Internet rage, as has happened in the comic book world who knows how many times. Because there's really no need to change Xena's look. Those boots and armbands look as fierce now as they did in the late '90s.
While we're at it, please don't ever change Xena's battle cry.

Low-Mileage, Original 1969 Corvette L88 To Be Auctioned At Monterey
Kirk Bell August 10, 2015 Comment Now!
To Corvette fans, certain groupings of letters and numbers have a lot of meaning. For late-model cars, Z06, ZR1, and Z51 are important alphanumerics, and for fans of vintage 'Vettes, ZL1, L71, and L88 stir their passions.
Later this week, Corvette fans will be able to bid on what may be the lowest-mileage original 1969 Chevrolet Corvette L88 in existence at the festivities surrounding the Pebble Beach Concours. From August 13-15 at the Marriott Hotel near Fisherman's Wharf, Rick Cole Auctions will be auctioning off 40 historic cars, including a 1969 Corvette L88 with only 2,576 miles on the odometer. Pristine and unmolested, this 'Vette can be yours for an estimated $650,000 to $750,000.
ALSO SEE: 1970 Hemi Cuda Convertible Headed To Monterey Auction, Expected To Bring Big Bucks
The car is one of 116 L88s built for the 1969 model year and one of just ten with the drag-race-ready 4.56:1 rear end. It has won numerous top-level awards at car shows and comes with complete documentation from the time it was new.
For those who are unfamiliar with the L88, it featured an aluminum-head 427-cubic inch V-8 that produced a conservatively rated 430 horsepower. The L88 package, which ran from 1967 to 1969 across two generations of Corvettes, also added the J56 heavy duty brakes, F-41 stiffer suspension, G80 Positraction, and K66 transistorized ignition, while deleting creature comforts like a radio, air conditioning and a heater. This car has the M22 four-speed manual transmission, and the color scheme is Riverside Gold with Saddle vinyl upholstery.
CHECK OUT: Don Draper's Cadillac Sells For $48,980
The documentation for the car claims it maintains 90 percent of the original paint finish and a completely original interior. It also claims this car posted an 11.7-second quarter-mile time in 1969 when it was in the hands of the original owner.
We don't recommend that the eventual winner of this auction take the car to the dragstrip. Instead, it's probably best rubbed tenderly with a diaper as it continues to appreciate in price.

The hostel Jai-Alai is located in a modern building located outside the village of Leitza, a quiet area despite being located next to the Landa polygon.
The hostel has 14 rooms, all located on the second floor of the building, some of them adapted for disabled people as well as access. Most rooms have a private terrace with beautiful views of the surroundings. The hostel also has a dining room to serve breakfast for those who wish.
The decoration of the rooms and the interior of the hostel in general is simple, beautiful and contemporary, with some allegorical motifs of the life of the area realized on mirrors.
All rooms have private bathroom, air conditioning, heating, Internet connection (WIFI or cable) and TV.
In the lower part of the building there is a small supermarket and a cafeteria.
Outside the hostel there is ample parking. And something further away from two playgrounds, both along the Leizaran river. From one of them you can access the river to take a dip in the hottest days.


Housing, development of Thousand Oaks Boulevard, homelessness among top city concerns discussed at forum by nine candidates for three council seats.
Thousand Oaks' housing stock, the development of its main thoroughfare and tackling its homeless problem were among the issues that nine City Council candidates, at a forum this week, named as some of the most pressing facing the community.
The candidates for three council seats participated in the forum Wednesday night at the Scheer Forum Theatre in the downtown Civic Arts Plaza, which serves as the City Council's chambers. The program was sponsored by the League of Women Voters Ventura County.
Five arrested after shoplifting incident in T.O.
Moderator David Maron, relaying questions from the audience of about 35 people, asked the candidates to name the top three concerns facing the city. Some of the candidates only named one or two.
Incumbent Joel Price, who has sat on the council since 2012, said "housing, No. 1 issue here in Thousand Oaks. We don't have enough of it. ... Not just because we need entry-level housing and low and moderate-income housing, but because we are facing external pressures from Sacramento."
He also listed the city's homeless population, noting that a City Council ad hoc committee on homelessness will present a report on dealing with the issue at Tuesday night's council meeting. Price, a former Los Angeles Police Department officer, said crime in Thousand Oaks is down, except for commercial burglaries, which is what police must focus on.
The homelessness ad hoc committee consists of council member Claudia Bill-de la Peña, seeking her fifth, four-year term, and council member Rob McCoy, who is not up for re-election until 2020.
Bill-de la Peña said the top three issues facing the city are "first and foremost ... housing. How to develop, how many units to develop and ... (finding) a very delicate balance of providing housing that we need for our seniors as well as millennials and respecting nature and the environment and our oak trees."
She also named homelessness and expanding the biotechnology and bio-medical business presence in the city, home of biotech giant Amgen Inc..
"Super important to the city of Thousand Oaks," she said.
Challenger Tom Adams, a wine marketer, agreed that "housing is a big issue as I walk the streets. ... We need to make sure that (housing) that comes in fits with Thousand Oaks. That I believe is the largest concern."
Other issues Adams listed were finding solutions for the city's homeless population, which he numbered at about 300, and "the importance of a burgeoning Thousand Oaks business (community)."
"Small business is vital to Thousand Oaks ... and I believe we can also develop a farmer's market through the Thousand Oaks area to help build business," he said.
Challenger Kevin McNamee, a chiropractor, said, "No. 1, I would work on water sustainability and independence from Los Angeles imported Metropolitan Water District. ... Second, downtown development is important. ... Planned slow-growth development that fits in with our city design, not what Sacramento tells us to do."
"Third would be pensions," McNamee said. "Right now, 4 percent of our budget goes to securing our pensions. It's rising to 11 percent. That is not sustainable."
Challenger Clifford Zone, a business owner, said, "I think the No. 1 concern to the voters right now is ... either they do not want us to develop (Thousand Oaks) boulevard or they do want us to develop the boulevard. They're really two different camps. ... I've basically come out in favor of mixed-use on the boulevard."
Challenger Bob Engler, a retired Redondo Beach Fire Department chief, said he also hears a lot from residents about the boulevard's development.
"Most of the folks I've talked to are concerned with our boulevard plan," he said.
The city says its Thousand Oaks Boulevard Specific Plan "guides development to revitalize, beautify and create a mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly destination between Duesenberg Drive and Moorpark Road."
Engler noted that at a candidates' forum last week at California Lutheran University, some residents' concerns about the boulevard becoming highly-developed like the neighboring San Fernando Valley were discussed.
"Under my watch, that will never happen," he said.
Other concerns he listed were the city's homeless population and "making sure that our sales tax ... is something which is appropriate for a city like ourselves."
Challenger Ed Jones, a Conejo Recreation and Park District board member who served on the Thousand Oaks City Council from 1970-74, also listed the development of Thousand Oaks Boulevard as the city's top issue.
"The great problem is what to do about Thousand Oaks Boulevard," said Jones, one of Thousand Oaks' founding fathers and a former Ventura County supervisor.
He added that while Thousand Oaks doesn't have many other problems, homelessness is one of them.
"Our park district has been working on many of the (homeless) people who try to stay in our parks and we're trying to develop a policy that will help them and at the same time lead to a final solution," he said.
Another challenger, Dan Twedt, a home care aide, said, "we need to make government more responsive at all levels and one way to do that is by establishing neighborhood councils. ... We need to make our communities more resilient."
Challenger Don Schmitz, a planning and legislation consultant, said, "the most important role of government is public health and safety. ... We all watched in horror over the last year where thousands of homes were burned up" in California wildfires.
"My number one priority will be to organize ... our city and the community to have the best notification system and the most robust evacuation system on the planet," he said.
Perhaps surprisingly, none of the candidates named as one of the city's top three concerns finding the Los Angeles Rams a permanent home there. That's in contrast to the City Council, for the second straight fiscal year, making the Rams its No. 1 priority.
The National Football League team currently trains at California Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks and has business offices in nearby Agoura Hills.
Price, however, at Wednesday night's forum, did mention that as mayor in 2016, he helped the Rams come to terms with CLU.
As was the case at last week's forum presented by CLU and the Greater Conejo Valley Chamber of Commerce, two other challengers, William Tomasi, a retired attorney, and Carrol Holst, a retiree, did not attend Wednesday night's forum.

Les eleccions a Angola tenen lloc en el marc d'una democràcia multipartidista i una sistema presidencialista. L'Assemblea Nacional és elegida directament pels votants, mentre que el líder del partit o coalició més gran en l'Assemblea Nacional es converteix automàticament en president. El país és actualment un estat dominat per un partit únic, amb el MPLA com el partit dominant.

Història electoral
Tot i que Angola havia enviat representants al parlament portuguès a principis del , no va ser fins a la dècada de 1920 que les autoritats portugueses van donar el seu consentiment per a la creació d'un cos legislatiu al territori. El 1922 es va establir un Consell Legislatiu elegit per colons portuguesos. Tanmateix el consell fou suprimit després del cop d'estat del 28 de maig de 1926.

El 1955 es va establir un nou Consell Legislatiu, encara que només als classificats oficialment com a "civilitzats" se'ls va permetre votar. Això efectivament limita la franquícia als colons europeus, la majoria de mulats i un petit nombre de d'africans europeïtzats (assimilados). El maig de 1972 el Parlament portuguès va aprovar la Llei Orgànica dels territoris d'ultramar, que preveia una major autonomia per als territoris d'ultramar; això va crear una Assemblea Legislativa de 53 membres per a Angola, dels quals 32 serien elegits, i la resta nomenats pels serveis públics, grups religiosos i grups empresarials. Les eleccions es van celebrar el març de 1973 però degut a les contínues restriccions en el sufragi, només hi havia registrades per votar 584.000 persones d'una població total de 5.673.046. Al voltant del 86% dels registrats van votar, i els membres elegits foren 29 europeus i 24 africans.

Després de la independència el 1975, l'esclat de la Guerra Civil angolesa va retardar primeres les eleccions després de la independència del país fins a l'any 1980. En aquells dies, el MPLA havia creat un estat de partit únic. Es va organitzar eleccions indirectes, en les quals els votants elegiren candidats examinats acuradament als col·legis electorals, que al seu torn escollien l'Assemblea Nacional. Les següents eleccions havien de celebrar-se en 1983, però que es van retardar fins a 1986 a causa de la guerra. Quan es van dur a terme, va ser sota el mateix sistema indirecte.

Els acords de Bicesse va posar fi a la guerra civil el 1991 i va veure la introducció de la democràcia multipartidista. Les eleccions generals es van dur a terme en 1992, en les que el president fou elegit popularment per primera vegada. El MPLA va obtenir 129 dels 220 escons de l'Assemblea Nacional, mentre que UNITA va emergir com a principal partit d'oposició amb 70 seients. José Eduardo dos Santos del MPLA i Jonas Savimbi d'UNITA van rebre la majoria de vots en la primera volta de les eleccions presidencials, però Savimbi va afirmar que les eleccions havien estat manipulades, tot i que els observadors les Nacions Unides manifestaren que havien estat majoritàriament lliures i justes. Es va negar a participar en la segona volta, i es reinicià la guerra civil.

La guerra civil va acabar el 2002 després de la mort de Savimbi. No obstant això, les eleccions es va retardar fins al 2008. El MPLA va rebre més del 80% dels vots, obtenint 191 dels 220 escons de l'Assemblea Nacional. Les eleccions presidencials estaven programades per a l'any 2009, però la nova Constitució promulgada el 2010 rebutjava les eleccions directes a la presidència, i el líder del partit majoritari a l'Assemblea Nacional es convertia automàticament en President d'Angola. Les següents eleccions el 2012 van veure una altra victòria aclaparadora del MPLA, encara que la seva quota de vot es va reduir a 72% i van perdre 16 escons.

Sistema electoral

President
La constitució de 1992 preveia l'elecció directa del president. Tanmateix això va ser abolit per la constitució de 2010; aquesta conté l'article 109, que estableix que "la persona al capdavant de la llista nacional del partit polític o coalició de partits polítics que rebi el major nombre de vots en les eleccions generals serà elegit President de la República i Cap de l'Executiu".

Assemblea nacional
El sistema electoral per a l'Assemblea Nacional es basa en la llei electoral aprovada l'1 de novembre de 1991. Els 220 membres són elegits de dues maneres; 90 són elegits d'entre 18 circumscripcions de cinc escons i 130 d'una circumscripció única a tot el país. Tots dos tipus de circumscripció utilitzen el Regla D'Hondt de llistes tancades escrutini proporcional plurinominal.

Els votants han de tenir almenys 18 anys i tenir ciutadania d'Angola. Poden ser desqualificats per tenir una fallida no rehabilitada o condemna penal, declarats bojos o tenir doble nacionalitat. Els candidats han de tenir almenys 35 anys i tenir ciutadania d'Angola. Els membres de les forces governamentals, judicials i armades i els membres dels consells de les empreses públiques no són elegibles per a les eleccions.

How did we get here? A recent timeline of Debney's Park
roseiser / April 8, 2019
Debney's Park has an extensive and unusual history: tannery, tip, river bank, open space.
In the last decade, it has seen further reductions and improvements – and now it faces an uncertain future.
This timeline tracks these recent events in the life of Flemington's largest and most important park.
May 2007: Moonee Valley Council resolved to give public notice of intention to sell 442 sqm of the eastern boundary of Debney's Park abutting Mt Alexander Rd.
December 2009: MVCC resolved to give notice to sell 460 sqm of Debney's Park as described above.
April 2010: After hearing submissions from the Flemington Association and one other, MVCC proceeded with the sale – providing the necessary road conditions for the development of the 23 storey ALT tower.
July 2010: $1.7m federal funding received for children's adventure playground. Completed 2011.
March 2014: East West Link Panel hearing hears that an extension to the Bolte Bridge as a second stage of the East West Link would impact the Flemington Community Centre and the Adventure Playground.
December 2014: The East West Link does not proceed.
20 December 2016: MVCC resolves to work with DHHS to prepare a Masterplan for the Flemington Estate precinct and enter an MOU with DHHS.
The report to this meeting states Council and DHHS will work towards:
Providing adequate community and supporting services for residents and the wider community
Expanding facilities in a fit-for-purpose way that is open and accessible to all residents of Moonee Valley
Embedding sustainability into the design of buildings and the public realm
Exploring commercial needs to support the broader community in appropriate locations on the Estate to activate and support the community hub
28 March 2017: MVCC resolves to:
Provide in-principle support for the relocation of the Flemington Community Centre more proximate to Racecourse Road in any future development outcomes.
Support the Minister for Planning to be the Responsible Authority for the Debneys Precinct through the forthcoming planning process.
The Council report states: "One of the outcomes identified through the Stage One processes is that the optimum location for the community centre is proximate to Racecourse Road. Discussions with DHHS has indicated agreement to locating the Community Centre in a building to be developed on Racecourse Road. The appropriate location of the Community Centre extremely important to Council's interest in the Precinct redevelopment."
June 2017: DHHS and MVCC develop a joint Structure Plan for Debney's Precinct providing for a new multi-purpose community centre fronting Racecourse Rd, and enhanced recreation facilities and a new sports pavilion on Debney's Park.
22 August 2017: Council resolves to endorse its submission to the Panel for the Flemington Estate Renewal project subject to an alteration to change the preferred location of the community centre to "adjacent to Debney's park on DHHS land".
The Council report for this meeting notes "that DHHS has agreed to include a relocated Community Centre Facility within the DHHS land. The exact location and form of such a centre will be progressed through the next stage."
The Council's submission states:
14 September 2017: Panel Hearing for the Flemington Estate Renewal Program:
MVCC presents a Development Plan with the Community Centre located on Council parkland. Council says to the Panel: "we think we can get the best community facilities at this location."
19 September 2017: MVCC's Director of Planning and Development writes to the Chair of the Panel stating "the plans are concepts only and have neither been endorsed by Council not been the subject of community consultation … and provide a basis for further discussion".
MVCC also tables a 'Land Exchange Agreement' at the hearings noting that the state government never completed land transfers to compensate the local government for the land consumed by the Department of Education for Debney Meadows Primary School.
Council asserts that the land originally offered to council as part of the land exchange (in the 1970s) is unsatisfactory. MVCC seeks 2698sqm of DHHS land and rejects as unsuitable the triangular and rectangular parcels offered in the 1970s (shown in hatching on the plans below).
March 2018: Planning Panel Report is released: The report does not make a specific recommendation about the provision of the community centre, but states:
"Council officers' preliminary concept for new community facilities is an 'iconic' building, meeting the needs of both residents and the whole community with a major frontage to Debneys Park. Be that as it may, the Committee supports the proposal to include at least some of what will be necessarily expanded community facilities on the ground floor of the Racecourse Road building. Not only is this a location where residential amenity would be poor, it has excellent access for both the Estate residents and those from the wider Flemington community.
In addition, it frees up valuable space within the park. The Committee considers that the creation of a community hub within the redevelopment with frontage to Racecourse Road can reinforce the sense of community as sought by the Structure Plan. It can have both a beneficial urban design and community outcome.
Mr Patrick considered the proposed Community Centre option adjacent to the boundary of Debney's Park is a poor location, as it would act as a barrier to the park. Of most concern to Mr Patrick is the proposed road to be constructed along part of the northern boundary, as he considered that the opportunity to provide direct access to the park would be lost.
The Committee strongly supports Mr Patrick's view that the protection of the root zones of the trees along the northern interface with Debneys Park should be a fundamental consideration in determining building footprints.
22 May 2018: A Council report following the Minister's approval of the C177 Amendment says that Council sought guidance from the Panel about Debney's Park (Stage 2), but that there is "more work for Council to do alongside key stakeholders in relation to Debney's Park and key facilities".
Arguably ignoring the Panel's comments about the preferred location of the community centre and the inadvisability of loss of parkland, the Council report states:
"The Amendment process allowed some of the issues and opportunities for a new FCC to be identified. The Advisory Committee recognised the need and the opportunities for redevelopment of the FCC, however no specific recommendations were provided."
The Council report provides the following summary: (Committee recommendation means the outcome of the Panel hearing process. Amendment outcome means the Minister's final decision.)
The Amendment included in the MVCC planning scheme a requirement that the second stage of the plans (Debney's Park) be developed in consultation with DHHS.
"Develop Stage 2 of the Debneys Precinct – Structure Plan, in consultation with the Department of Health and Human Services."
July 2018: First meeting of the Flemington Neighbourhood Advisory Group (FNAG) formed to consider the Community Hub and Debney's Park improvements. The group participates in consultation activities, but does not discuss the location or composition of the hub in any detail.
February 2019: FNAG is shown plans for a new community hub on a singular location having not previously discussed the location of the hub.
March 2019: MVCC resolves to put three options for the community hub out for 6 weeks consultation. All three options locate the hub on Council land between the estate and the park.
This timeline of events shows that at some point between August and September 2017, Council officers' plan to locate a community hub on DHHS land changed to locating a community hub on Council parkland with no clear explanation to, and direction from, Councillors.
It also highlights that the planning panel process made clear comments about the future of a community centre and parkland that don't appear to have been accommodated by MVCC's plans for a community hub on parkland.
MVCC must consult with DHHS to develop plans for Debney's Park. Residents are keen to understand how this consultation is proceeding and how it interacts with Council's commitments to preserve parkland and open space, to explain how we found ourselves here.

H-4 visa withdrawal to hit tens of thousands of Indians
Biz, News, Spotlight October 23, 2018November 25, 2018 mgr
indica News Bureau
US President Donald Trump's administration is all set to revoke an Obama-era rule that enables H-4 visa holders, or spouses of professionals working in the United States on H-1B visa, to work in the country – a move set to impact tens of thousands of Indians in the US.
An H-4 visa is issued by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to the immediate family members (spouse and children under 21 years of age) of the H-1B visa holders.
While the move to withdraw the rule will hit over 70,000 H-4 visas holders with work permits, it will, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), significantly benefit the US workers.
"Some US workers would benefit from this proposed rule by having a better chance at obtaining jobs that some of the population of the H-4 workers currently hold, as the proposed rule would no longer allow H-4 workers to enter the labor market early," the DHS said in its recently released Unified Fall Agenda.
The DHS, which has already delayed three times this year issuing of the necessary notification, said the proposed rule would no longer allow H-4 workers to enter the labor market early.
Elaborating the reasons for the delay, the US attorney said since the DHS' senior leadership had returned the filed recent status report to the USCIS this month for revisions after reviewing the proposed rule.
The next status report filing by DHS is due on November 19.
Anticipating further, the DHS said that there would be two primary impacts that it could estimate and quantify. First, the cost-savings accruing to forgone future filings by certain H-4 dependent spouses, and labor turnover costs that employers of H-4 workers could incur when their employees' employment authorizations are terminated.
As of December 25, 2017, US Citizenship and Immigration Services had approved 126,853 applications for employment authorization for H-4 visa holders.
These count all approvals since May 2015 when the rule was implemented. This number includes 90,946 initial approvals, 35,219 renewals, and 688 replacements for lost cards.
In its recent report based on the information obtained from the USCIS, the Congressional Research Service said that ninety-three per cent of approved applications for H-4 employment authorization had been issued to individuals born in India, and five per cent were issued to individuals born in China. The remaining two per cent of applications consisted of individuals born in all other countries combined.
Last month, Democratic Senators Kamala Harris and Kirsten Gillibrand wrote a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and USCIS Director L Francis Cissna, to not to go ahead with the decision to revoke authorization to immigrants on H4 visas.
"Preventing women from engaging in employment can lead to isolation, depression, anxiety, feelings of guilt, and a loss of self-worth. Revoking a wife's ability to work leaves her and her children entirely dependent on her spouse. Increased isolation — coupled with complete financial dependence — can make leaving an abusive relationship dangerous and, in some cases, impossible," they wrote.
However, the Trump administration is on track to undo the H-4 spouse work authorization decision taken by the previous Obama administration, as per the release of the Unified Fall Agenda.

"I'm So Fat!"
Corinne said to me, "I'm disgusted with my life."
"Really?" I said. "Name a specific thing you're disgusted about."
"I'm so fat!"
"So rather than argue about whether you really are fat—which is debatable—let's just accept what you believe. Let's suppose that you ARE fat. Why would that be disgusting?"
"It just is."
"Almost nothing is uniformly disgusting just because it exists. Someone has to judge that it's disgusting and feel disgusted about it. In this case, I suggest that you've accepted the judgments and feelings of other people that being fat is disgusting."
"Like who?"
"You tell me. Almost without exception, we accept the judgments taught to us earliest and most often. For example, what did your father say about people who were fat?"
"He said they lacked self-control. You could tell that he especially thought that fat women were ugly."
"And your mother?"
"She would tell me that I didn't need to eat this thing or that thing because it might make me fat. Her facial expression told the real story about what she thought about fat people. And there were many times she told me that I was prettier than my sister, who was heavier than I was. It was pretty clear that being thin was good while being fat was bad."
"So your parents did communicate—rather powerfully, actually—that being fat was disgusting. And you've heard that message from other people all your life. Nearly every magazine and movie openly or indirectly states that being thin is a desirable condition, which could only lead us to conclude that being fat is disgusting. Little wonder, then, that you believe it."
"I'd never seen it quite like that."
"By contrast, have you ever known someone who was unconditionally loving who expressed disgust at someone else being fat?"
"I only know a tiny handful of loving people, but no, I have not heard them express that message in any way."
"So, people use being thin as a false way of feeling worthwhile, and those same people make fun of heavier people as a way of confirming their own worth. Yes?"
"Certainly seems so."
"When people are not unconditionally loving—which is true of almost everyone—can they clearly see other people?"
"I'm not sure."
"No, they can't. When people are not truly loving, they can't see anything clearly. They see only what they want and what they're afraid of, so they can't see who they really are. They can't see other people either. They can't think or feel clearly. Their emptiness and fear make them blind and stupid. Not a criticism, just a description of how it is."
"And yet you walk around all day concerned about what these blind and stupid people think of you—in every way, your 'fatness' is just one example. I'm not telling you whether you should be thinner or heavier. In fact, I'm not telling you that you should be anything. But I am saying that believing the judgments of blind people isn't making you happy."
Most of us spend our entire lives trying to earn the conditional approval of people who can't see us and who will never truly love us. Seems like a waste. Seems like it might be worth reconsidering the way we see ourselves.
Recover from your negative habits and beliefs!

SO EXCITED
By Claudia on August 6, 2011
Here are the classes I'm probably going to take at Western this semester and next. The MA is only a year-long thing there, so at the end of next summer I'll be done with that and going onto the PhD, assuming everything goes well. For the MA, we need to take six half-courses in total.
Here are the ones I'm wanting:
Fall semester:
Philosophy 9276A: Philosophical Foundations of Modern Physics
"This seminar will examine the background to contemporary physics, particularly emphasizing two aspects: the philosophical views of space, time, and matter that were part of classical physics, and the views of the nature of scientific theory in general– in particular, of the roles of theory and experience, and the relations between mathematical structure and physical reality– that informed, and were informed by, developments in physics. Authors to be discussed include Newton, Leibniz, Euler, Kant, Helmholtz, Maxwell, Duhem, Mach, Poincaré, Einstein, Heisenberg, Schlick, Carnap, and others."
Philosophy 9606A: Hume and Reid on Mental Representation
"This course will focus on Hume's and Reid's contrasting accounts of the foundations of knowledge and the workings of the mind."
Philosophy 4993F/9889A: Environmental Philosophy
"This course in environmental philosophy explores some ethical and epistemological issues that arise in the contexts of conservation and restoration ecology. We commonly ear that we ought to preserve biodiversity. What are the moral justifications for such a widely accepted normative claim? Finally, this course will also look into the issue of unpredictability. Scientific and applied ecology were for a long time deeply influenced by an equilibrium paradigm in which nature was conceived of as balanced and predictable. But in the 1970s, ecologists started challenged this view and now endorse what some call a "non-equilibrium" view of nature. We will reflect on this new ecology and how it can affect the way in which policy makers and ecologists approach ecological management."
Spring semester:
Philosophy 9277B: Philosophy of Probability
"This course is an introduction to philosophical issues connected with probability. Emphasis will be on the strengths and limitations of a probabilistic approach to confirmation in science. Topics will include interpretations of probability, Bayesian reasoning and its relation to classical statistical inference, how to understand conditional probability, and application of probabilistic reasoning to case studies in science."
Philosophy 9279B: Science and Values
"This seminar considers the roles of values in science from four angles: (1) Values in scientific epistemology: heuristics and pragmatics; (2) Whose science is it?: authority, governance and ownership in science; (3) Scientific communication and moral life: trust, testimony, and obligation; (4) Choices: goals, risks, and the aims of science."
Philosophy 9608B: Consciousness
"We will consider several philosophical theories of consciousness, including the HOT theory, AIR theory, multiple drafts, and dual aspect theory. We will also consider the role of science in explaining consciousness."

That looks awesome. Philosophy of science was one of my favorites, so these classes are pretty much making me drool.


Network Attached Storage (NAS) servers have long since become a popular solution for reliable and convenient data protection and storage. Ranging from modest home solutions to enterprise-level offerings with versatile features, they can fit the needs of small to large businesses and individuals.
QNAP Systems, Inc. is one of the key players in the NAS market offering a wide range of reliable, fast, and easy-to-operate products. QNAP NAS devices can be used to store anything ranging from media files to confidential business data.
NAKIVO decided to partner with QNAP to create a game-changer in the area of VM protection – a DIY VM backup appliance. Now, instead of using your NAS as a mere backup storage, you can install NAKIVO Backup & Replication directly on this server and get a useful device with optimal performance and other unbeatable benefits.
Purpose-built backup appliances (i.e., sold by a single company as a bundle) available on the market are 2-in-1 solutions that combine backup software with backup storage. In contrast, a VM backup appliance you can build by installing NAKIVO Backup & Replication on a QNAP NAS is a 5-in-1 high-performance solution (that is hardware, backup software, storage, deduplication, and backup to cloud in a single box). Moreover, purpose-built backup appliances limit your choices of software and hardware and usually cost more. In its turn, a combination NAKIVO Backup & Replication and a QNAP device lets you create a powerful VM backup appliance with the NAS you already have and, thus, pay up to 5 times less.
Once created, the VM backup appliance can be used to make image-based, application-aware backups of your VMware and Hyper-V VMs and AWS EC2 instances.
NAKIVO Backup & Replication can be installed on the majority of QNAP NAS devices, from the most economical to high-end. No matter which compatible NAS you choose, all the advanced backup, replication, and recovery features of the product will be available for use – and it won't take more than a few minutes to configure.
Having a VM backup appliance spares you the need to overload your primary production server with backup processes. You also won't need any additional server with backup software running on it to serve as a relay point between VMs and the NAS. As previously mentioned, installing NAKIVO Backup & Replication directly on a QNAP NAS creates a 5-in-1 solution (backup hardware, software, storage, deduplication, and backup to cloud). You get a multi-functional physical device that can be relocated off-site and requires less maintenance and support, not to mention that it takes some load off your virtualized environment. When backup processes run on a QNAP NAS, production server resources (i.e., CPU and memory) can be used for running VMs.
Having your VMs, backup software, and backup repository all in one place poses significant risks. Any kind of failure can compromise the VMs, backup jobs, AND the VM backups that could be used for recovery. Therefore, separating your backup software and storage from the main production server will make sure your backup jobs run as planned, even if the main virtual infrastructure takes a hit. It will also ensure you have VM backups ready to run VM recovery jobs whenever you need them.
With a QNAP-based VM backup appliance, VM backups are faster by default, as NAKIVO Backup & Replication writes them directly to NAS disks, bypassing CIFS and NFS network protocols. The speed can be increased even further thanks to Network Acceleration, LAN-free data transfer, and simultaneous backup, replication, and recovery jobs. As a result, you can get up to a 2X speed boost as compared to purpose-based backup solutions.
NAKIVO Backup & Replication uses several technologies to consume less storage space. VM backups are forever-incremental, meaning that only changed data blocks are transferred with every backup job. These blocks of data are further deduplicated and compressed to save even more space. Also, with the space reclaim technology, you can rearrange the blocks in the storage to use the latter with the greatest efficiency.
Even an offsite VM backup storage can be compromised, which will put your VM backups under risk. NAKIVO Backup & Replication prevents this by copying VM backups to another repository or directly to AWS or Azure clouds. Backup copy jobs are easily scheduled to meet individual needs.
To make sure VM backups are error-free and usable, NAKIVO Backup & Replication includes the screenshot verification feature. After finishing a backup job, NAKIVO Backup & Replication will test-recover the VM, make its screenshot, and send it to you via email. This way, you will always know whether your backups are valid and can be used for recovery.
When the disaster strikes, get your virtual infrastructure back to normal in no time. NAKIVO Backup & Replication allows recovering VMs, files, and Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL, and Microsoft Active Directory objects directly from deduplicated and compressed backups on the QNAP NAS server.
Check if your QNAP NAS model is supported.
Open the QNAP Desktop in your browser by entering the IP address of your QNAP NAS.
Use the search bar to find NAKIVO Backup & Replication or look under Backup/Sync.
In the appeared window, click Install again.
NAKIVO Backup & Replication is now installed on your QNAP NAS and ready to run VM backup, replication, and recovery jobs.
NOTE: By default, NAKIVO Backup & Replication interface can also be found at the IP address of your QNAP NAS on port 4443: https://<IP_address_of_QNAP_NAS>:4443.
Alternatively, you can download the QNAP package from the NAKIVO website and install it manually via App Center.
Creating a VM backup appliance is a smart and strategic decision in line with the current technological trends. When you use a QNAP NAS and NAKIVO Backup & Replication to create such an appliance, you combine solid and reliable hardware with cutting-edge, multi-functional virtual machine backup software. With up to 2X better performance and 5X cost reduction, a VM backup appliance can become an indispensable part of your virtual infrastructure, offering convenience, reliability, and reduction of costs.
Download the full-featured Free Trial of NAKIVO Backup & Replication and install the product on your QNAP NAS to build your own VM backup appliance. You can also request a Live Demonstration of the product.
