Before Ukraine Can Be Reformed, It Must Be Defended
UkraineAlert by Paul Goble
Eastern Europe Russia Ukraine
Tanks and fighters of the Russia-backed Donetsk People's Republic move during a battle with Ukrainian troops near the airport in Donetsk city, October 4, 2014. Russian soldiers, their family members, independent media and ordinary residents near Ukraine's border all have documented Russia's direct combat role in Ukraine with tanks, rocket fire, paratroopers and other forces, as well as its recruitment, training and arming of the proxy militias in Donetsk and Lugansk provinces. (Reuters/Shamil Zhumatov)
When Hitler Invaded Poland, No One Demanded Polish Reforms Before Offering Help. Why Is It the Reverse for Ukraine?
"September 3, 1939 – British and French commentators and officials said today that it could no longer be denied that Hitler was invading Poland and that the Nazi forces represented the most serious threat to the existence of that country, but they said that Warsaw could not reasonably expect allied assistance unless it carried out massive reforms first."
That story, of course, never happened. … No one suggested that Poland needed reforms before defense because they recognized that if Poland did not exist, it could not reform. (The exception was those in London and Paris with links to the Communist Party who followed the Kremlin line even when Stalin was an ally of Hitler, as was then the case.)
But that was then, and this is now. Today, media outlets and officials in Western countries, having in all too many cases done their best to ignore or minimize Russian aggression, are finally being forced to recognize that what Ukraine faces is a Russian "invasion" and that indeed Ukraine and her people are fighting for survival.
To End Corruption in Ukraine, Will Russian Occupation Help?
Western Voices: We In making this concession to reality, however, many of these same outlets and officials have come up with a fallback position to justify their unwillingness to provide the kind of assistance Ukraine so clearly needs: They point to the corruption and lack of reform in Ukraine and say that Kyiv must carry out reforms now before it can hope for help.
That Ukraine needs reforms in its economic and political systems is something few question. Ukraine will be a success in the middle and longer term if and only if it carries them out, as difficult that will inevitably be. But demanding reforms from someone who is looking down the barrel of a gun before helping him is obscene for at least three reasons.
First, the very people who are making this argument now often have excused other countries (and their own as well) from making necessary reforms in the name of national security and Realpolitik. Obviously, for them, Ukraine is a special case, clearly because of Russia, and they won't extend that logic to Ukraine.
Second, those making this argument ignore the fact that the country in this conflict that needs reform most is Russia. It needs a government which lives up to its international obligations rather than invading neighboring countries; it needs an economy not dominated by corruption; and it needs a political system in which the Russian people can be free.
And third, those in the West saying this ignore the fact that Vladimir Putin isn't interested in reforms or in the survival of Ukraine. He wants to break Ukraine first by partitioning it and then by subordinating it completely to the Kremlin. What his "reform" program for Ukraine would be is very much on view in the criminal actions of his agents in Donetsk and Luhansk.
Does anyone really think that Ukraine—and its prospects for the kind of reforms its people want—will be advanced by allowing that to happen?
Some years ago, a very wise leader of one of the post-Soviet states told the author of these lines that before his country could become a democracy, it had to become a country. His words can be updated: Before Ukraine can reform—and there is no question that it must reform—it must … first be able to defend itself, and with our help.
Getting this sequence wrong and putting the cart before the horse, a some are now doing, is a prescription not for a better future but for disaster and not only for Ukraine but for the West as well.

ROTTERDAM, NETHERLANDS--(Business Wire / Korea Newswire) January 25, 2017 -- An International coalition announced today that a lawsuit was filed in Dutch Court yesterday on behalf of institutional investors who suffered billions of dollars in losses in their investments in Petroleo Brasiliero SA ("Petrobras"). Seeking declaratory relief as a result of the alleged corruption of the company and its executives, the coalition represents investors who purchased Petrobras securities on the BM&FBOVESPA exchange in Brazil and other securities purchased via transactions outside of, and not covered by, litigation in the United States. The damaged investor group believes the Netherlands is the optimal jurisdiction for pursuing legal action, as this is where Petrobras Global Finance B.V. and several other Petrobras entities and divisions are domiciled. In addition, the Dutch legal system has an established global settlement precedent for international investors who seek compensation pursuant to damages caused by fraud and violations of international securities laws.

Joaquin, stunning analysis about the Yatz death wish–given his consistent nutty behavior and comments your psycho-political analysis of this man is compelling.
Also, the Transnistria component of how this Ukraine conflict unfolds is disturbing.
The U.S. Power brokers have to know that the larger dynamics of the QE fiat currency regime is approaching some type of endpoint–but what their exact game plan in the face of this unavoidable collapse might be is difficult for me to understand or speculate upon.
Indeed, Russia's game plan seems to be to let it all unravel, and not to be drawn into any provocations that will allow the NATO Atlanticists to further separate Russia from natural alliances within the Sphere of Western Europe.
As you say: there is a time element and dynamic that European powers can come to realize that the empire is naked and deluded.
Thanks for speaking with me briefly by phone a while back.
It is horrible here–and there is a degree of repression and collective delusion in this society that is very frightening.
Almost no problems are being assessed and addressed in any adequate manner.
My area of specialization is ecological restoration and landscaping–but the dominant paradigm with landscaping is to force plant species to grow on lands that they have not evolved within; and to use huge amounts of energy and chemicals toward this end.
This is pathological behavior that has been normalized.
The landscaping paradigm is perhaps the most potent, surface example of the insanity that forms the foundation of this social order.
There is simply no cogent defense of the paradigm–so any discussion and reflection is almost non existent.
Likewise with the escalation of tensions in Ukraine, and the propaganda war against Putin and Russia: the dominant (and most of the 'alternative') media simply avoid the topic.
This has been one of the most fascinating aspects of this conflict–the avoidance of focus in mainstream discussion and analysis.
Lastly, I would like to point you to a weekly podcast called "The Truth Perspective" on the SOTT network.
It would be great if these people would book you as a guest in the near future.
If you listen to their podcasts I think you will find these people valuable allies.
Thanks for your kind conversation with me a while back. Yes, it is horrible here, and escaping this hell is something I keen to make happen.
In a sane society I would be valued–as I have many worthy accomplishments and ideas. But for pointing out the obvious I am virtually a pariah.


Kowabunga dude! This Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Leonardo katana sword is the perfect costume accessory weapon toy to have with any TMNT costume! As seen in the blockbuster film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows.

Kids know what healthy food is, but adults seem to lose their way and make eating just so complicated. We'll help you cut through the nutrition noise and figure out how to eat healthy — without having to think about it too much.
Carbs get a bad rap. Here's the science behind why eating too much starch isn't good for you — and smart tips to integrate more slow carbs into your diet.

There are so many food tribes out there — everything from Keto to vegan. We help you understand how to choose a diet approach that's right for you.We have one big thing to remember: Choose a diet that you can stick with over the long haul. Ask yourself:- What do you like to eat?- Whom do you tend to eat with?- What sort of diet fits comfortably into your life?
Healthy eating can be easy if you follow a few simple rules. We guide you through three types of food you should eat more of, and three to cut back on.Here's what to remember:Eat more- Nuts and seeds.- Fruits and vegetables.- Healthy fats, especially Omega 3 fatty acids from seafoodEat less- Processed meat.- Sugary drinks and refined carbohydrates.- Salt, especially in packaged foods.
This is not an accurate representation of Paleo diet--it's a caricature that's nit picking the margins and missing the point of eating unprocessed foods.

After batting practice, the players, led by All-Star Hanley Ramirez, served lunch to construction workers of the new ballpark. The day concluded with interviews from Marlins Executives Jeffrey Loria, David Samson and Larry Beinfest, as well as an update of the construction from Hunt/Moss engineers.

Many people ask exactly how ClickFunnels compares with other landing page builders such as Leadpages, Unbounce, as well as Infusionsoft.
Generally it's not truly a fair comparison since each of these devices excels is one location or the various other.
The chart above gives a comprehensive evaluation – but I'll highlight a few of the major contrasts listed below.
Leadpages is merely a lead capture software program – nothing more. You could produce landing web pages, lead boxes, accumulate leads … that's basically it. Furthermore, the Leadpages templates are additionally limited on modification.
ClickFunnels is even more versatile – it's much easier to use and also does so a lot more than develop lead capture web pages.
Simply put, Leadpages is truly simply a landing page home builder, while ClickFunnels is focused around building very integrated funnels.
Infusionsoft is not a touchdown web page or sales page home builder. It has several of that functionality built it, yet that's not what it's known for.
At it's core, Infusionsoft is a CRM system – one that enables you to handle your whole consumer database. ClickFunnels has this capability with Actionetics, yet it's not almost as progressed as Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft is also incredibly expensive and also forces every brand-new customer to pay $2000 for an obligatory kickstart training plan just to discover the best ways to utilize the intricate system (which is infamously difficult to make use of).
Those that decide to make use of the tool for their organisation – in hopes of one day accomplish both Comma Club (over $1M in earnings).
As well as those that have an interest in making easy income as a ClickFunnels Associate as well as winning the Dream Car Competition (where they pay $500/$1000 in the direction of your dream automobile if you reach 100/200 energetic monthly signups, respectively).
With a tremendous 40% regular monthly recurring payment, ClickFunnels easily has one of the greatest associate programs of any type of system around.
That's right – you get paid a recurring 40% payment on every associate signup you make with the ClickFunnels Associate Program. But, exactly what does that really relate to?
The standard plan is a $97/month financial investment and the Etison Collection strategy is a $297/month financial investment. consequently you make $38.80 each standard strategy as well as $118.80 per Etison Suite strategy … each and every month!
Usually, every 100 signups will certainly generate $4000/month in affiliate compensations (basically depending on how many Etison Strategy individuals are in there).

Where (And How) To Be Polyamorous In London
"I have a wife and a girlfriend": is polyamory the biggest dating trend for 2020?
6 Most Amazing Polyamorous Relationships
Something unsettling is happening in heterosexual dating. People who identify as polyamorous sometimes argue it is a sexual orientation akin to being gay or straight, while others see it as a lifestyle choice. It is about constant communication and respect, which allows for the fact that there is such a thing as ethical, consensual non-monogamy. There has definitely been a shift in the way that straight people consider monogamy. As apps such as Feeld , designed for non-monogamous people, flourish, so do the ever-increasing gender identities and relationship requests that can be listed on the likes of OkCupid. Google searches for polyamory are on the rise , and a YouGov poll found that 31 per cent of women and 38 per cent of men believed their ideal relationship to be consensually non-monogamous, so it's easy to see why someone interested in seeing multiple women with zero commitment might see this as the perfect way to convince their partners to want the same. What casual-seekers have also failed to realise though, is that polyamory in fact requires more commitment than monogamy. And it certainly has almost nothing in common with dating — and sleeping with — multiple people at the same time without ever really committing to anyone. As someone who wants a monogamous relationship, I decided to chat to someone who identifies as poly. If men have no interest in a serious relationship, and are looking to casually date multiple people, that is absolutely fair and their choice, but that is what they should explain honestly.

It's easy to see why someone interested in dating multiple women with zero commitment might see this as the perfect excuse, but polyamory in.
But what is polyamory, and can you really love more than one person at a time? Stylist investigates. Six years ago, when a friend told me she was in relationship with a married couple a man and a woman , I nearly choked on my espresso. How did a whole third person fit into that? And what about the jealousy? How on earth did all this happen? The admission felt both crushing and liberating, all at once.
We still loved each other deeply and felt committed to one another as people, yet also wanted to explore sexually, maybe romantically, with others. For a while we felt quite doomed. But what did it mean, to want someone else as well? This felt wasteful and short-sighted. Why should we throw away all we had built over the years?

Please refresh the page and retry. L ast week, courtesy of the Telegraph, we were treated to a blistering scoop that was, refreshingly, more about sex than death. Professor Neil Ferguson of Imperial College, the leading virus modeller for the Government and the man whose dire warnings in March triggered the decision to enter lockdown, was discovered to have had his lover round shortly thereafter – including on days he went on the Today programme to warn people about the perils of breaking the rules.
Which include seeing people outside your household. She is married, and apparently in an open relationship with her husband. Ferguson — who is estranged from his wife, with whom he has a child — is presumably allowed to have other girlfriends, too. To be sure, such an arrangement is hardly what one pictures for a Government epidemiologist — particularly when our ruling classes generally appear to be in the long-married, wedding rings-glinting camp.
Sometime in the last few years, the idea of monogamy — you know, complete with not cheating on your one partner — took a body blow. It's what all the cool kids and fifty-somethings are doing. Except unlike walking on the beach, polyamory is touted as a philosophy, one rooted in the sinister-sounding concept of 'radical candour' and 'compersion', which means taking pleasure in your partner getting their kicks elsewhere.
It is taken up with particular relish by lefties, for whom it seems to bolster a caring-and-sharing self-image.

As organisers for the polyamorous community, one of the most frequent questions we get asked is "where can we meet other polyamorous people? This event will be gender and sexuality blind so you will meet people of all genders, quite possibly including ones that you are also not romantically or sexually attracted to. Please arrive by 7pm. Instructions will be given at 7. The event will finish by 10pm at the latest, but we will have the space booked until 11pm so feel free to stay to keep chatting with interesting folks, have dinner, or for drinks.
Earlier this month, in a charmingly dingy community centre in south London, people gathered to talk about polyamory. The organisers think Polyday is the biggest non-monogamy event in Europe — and in its four years, this was the biggest yet. Polyamory has just gone mainstream in BBC1's primetime drama Wanderlust , and you couldn't help but wonder if some of the crowd had decided to attend while choking down their Merlot and Kettle Chips.

(by Nikolaus Mach-Hour, Head of JCO Germany / VP global strategy)
In this last part of our four-part series, I would like to highlight some of the trends regarding how JCO customers are about to reshape their organisations and business models.
6. Changes in business strategy
Japanese business culture is traditionally rather long-term oriented when it comes to planning, investment, R&D and distribution.
Japan is home to 10,000s of companies that were founded over 100 years ago so many of our customers pride themselves in upholding the teachings of their founders, often laid down in philosophical writings.
When we combine these facts with a strong emotional attachment to the "golden era" when Japanese technology was widely successful on a global scale because of its impossibly high quality standards and innovative design, it is easy to understand why many companies have long been very reticent about sunsetting product groups that were at the "core" of their initial success. Often the executives at the top level came up through as engineers on these products which made it very hard for them to "let go"…
But the tectonic shifts in the global economy have necessitated a thorough re-evaluation of the path forward for many of our customers.
A. Countless companies, often hidden champions in their markets, have started to establish specific R&D centers, innovation hubs, startups and incubators in and outside Japan for totally new fields of business.
While Japan had always been a nation spending more of her GDP on R&D than most nations (usually around 3.25% in the last 10 years), the visible change lies in the fact that this immense investment of resources and staff into new technologies and products does not happen "hidden within company walls" in order to shield it from the public and competitors any longer. These moves are being put front and center of the companies´ PR, IR and HR strategies.
This might, of course, mean that an investment or new idea may very well turn out to be not successful for "everyone to see" which the typically rather risk-averse Japanese companies might not have been prepared to accept in the past.
In short, a renewed "no risk, no reward" spirit is visible.
B. A lot of former typical Shousha (= trading houses) have moved away from the old "man in the middle" business model to effectively reinvent themselves after a certain period of stasis. These days, they are running rather powerful VC programs while also establishing countless partnerships with smaller non-Japanese companies from all around the world that are working on future-facing products and solutions. In a way, they are now in the business of "trading ideas and long-term visions"!
C. Many of our larger customers are consolidating their countless daughter companies into one large entity within a relatively short time frame, thereby streamlining processes, reducing overhead and allowing for a unified "global strategy".
On top of that, projects aiming at digital transformation are being launched by almost every single one among JCO's customers.
The traditionally rather isolated and often home-grown IT systems in Japan are now gradually being connected and/or merged with systems used in the rest of the organization outside of Japan.
Where in the past, 2 or more systems might run in parallel in the same global company there is now a tendency to simply choose the software solution that makes the most sense, even if that means discarding the system and the processes that the Japanese part of the company had been used to.
D. At the same time, more drastically than ever before, companies are making moves to sunset whole product lines and/or sell off non-profitable parts of the company if it is clear that certain products and businesses have no future.
In the past, there was often an implicit promise by the larger companies to the regional administrations in Japan to provide a certain number of jobs in a specific prefecture.
But in the future, we can expect an ever growing concern for a numbers based "return on investment".
So, certain subsidiaries might be moved to a holding company to give them a final chance to prove that their business is viable. If it turns out that this is not the case they are likely to be sold off or closed down.
Whereas this might seem like standard business in a Western corporation, in Japan making the hard choices is not always easy.
E. One more trend that needs to be mentioned is a new openness to collaborate with other Japanese companies that, as competitors in similar fields, would not have been regarded as suitable partners in the past. Often, the concern was to jeopardize one's own market share in Japan by doing so. Some might have said that former "keiretsu" demarcations were still in place to some degree.
But companies have come to understand that this former reluctance has no place in times of ever-growing investment needs for new technologies that no company can shoulder alone.
Certain JCO customers, often those where the company name is a clear indication of the strong connection to a sunsetting market (e.g. OEMs for internal combustion engine parts), are currently announcing new company names.
All this is a clear sign that the management has understood the sign of the times and sees the need for fundamental reinvention.
This means that regardless of how successful a company was in a certain field and how sacrosanct old traditions, products and processes were until now, the time has come for a full repositioning in order to not only survive but lay the groundwork for a new type of successful business.
As I shared at the beginning of this article series, I have been working with Japanese colleagues, clients and partners for over 30 years. Now more than ever, I feel quite hopeful about the will and the ability of Japanese management and their staff to reinvent their business model and rethink their entire modus operandi.
Here's to another interesting 30 years!

You are here: Home / Things to Do / 10 COVID-19 Safe Things to Do in Philadelphia, PA
November 27, 2020 // by Jake Tammara
People from Philadelphia enjoy participating in variety of different activities from drinking at Eagles tailgates to going out for a good cheesesteak. Most Philadelphians will agree on one thing – that socializing comes before everything else. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many of Philly's favorite hot spots can be no longer be regularly accessed by the public. Even so, as more businesses continue to open back up, mostly with necessary restrictions due to COVID, Philly seems to slowly be getting back to normal and people have started to return to their natural social state.
Here are 10 of the best COVID-friendly activities in Philadelphia right now.
1. Going Out for a Bite
Outdoor dining at restaurants in Philadelphia persists as of November 2020. However, in order to be served, diners must order at least one food item if they want to order a drink as well. Restaurants also need to follow rules to keep diners and staff protected. Rules include only allowing four guests at each table, closing kitchens by 11 P.M. and completely closing by midnight.
"I went to a couple bars with my friends and they didn't let everyone sit together, but we still all had a pretty good night overall," Drexel University junior Alexander Strauss said.
Even though the pandemic continues to loom on, so long as everyone stays willing to adhere to the safety guides of each restaurant and bar, people can still have the opportunity to enjoy a night out with family or friends.
2. Exploring Penn's Landing
wikimedia.org
Located in the spot that William Penn landed in Philadelphia in 1682, Penn's Landing now hosts various different activities throughout the year. During the summer, you may see people enjoying various outdoor activities such as riding their bikes or jogging along the Race Street Pier. Dozens of people participate in the free yoga classes or even rock out to performances by some of the biggest artists in the country.
In the winter, the Pier's transformation into a massive ice-skating rink brings winter joy to all. The Pier opens earlier this year on November 27th, just in time for the holidays. If you and your loved ones have been cooped up in the house for majority of 2020, ice skating at Penn's Landing this winter could assist you in getting active once again.
3. Visiting the Zoo
While the Philadelphia Zoo currently allows visitors, the indoor exhibits remain open with limited capacity. Every guest needs a reservation if they want a ticket to see what the zoo offers. Families can still give their children an enjoyable time with the many animals in the zoo.
"We always used to go to the zoo as kids, so for my dad's birthday, my mom got him a family pass. It has come in handy in the past and I sure am glad that we can use it with everything going on right now," University of the Sciences freshman Miriam Lexing said.
Animals often spark joy with their adorable and silly antics, so the zoo being open right now could help to get everyone out of the gloomy mindsets that have recently been instilled in most of us.
4. Going Shopping
Many stores and malls in Philadelphia, such as Macy's and The Shops at Liberty Place, currently allow only a certain number of people to shop at a time, requiring all customers to wear face masks while they shop.
"They have stickers that tell you to wait six feet apart and arrows that point in the one direction that you're allowed to walk in," West Chester University senior Jess Jahr said.
Though some of the rules that need to be followed may not sit well with everyone, making sure that people stay safe remains the city's top priority. Besides the fact that you may need to wait outside before you can enter the store along with wearing a mask, the shopping experience during COVID carries on mostly the same as before.
5. Learning About Philly's Historic Sites
As one of the only former capitals of the nation, Philadelphia contains some of America's most important historical locations. The list of places where influential events occurred are endless. Independence Hall, the location where both the Constitution and Declaration of Independence were signed, will get any history buff excited. Other historic sites include Elfreth's Alley, the nation's oldest continuously inhabited residential street; the Liberty Bell, a symbol that represented one of the first anti-slavery groups of the American colonial era, along with countless other attractions.
You cannot get the true Philadelphia experience without exploring the area that our forefathers wandered around centuries ago. The history of the city will undoubtedly leave you wanting to explore every nook and cranny of Philly to see what you can find. Though some of these places do not allow visitors indoors at the moment, most of them remain mainly outdoor, photo worthy attractions to begin with.
6. Viewing Philly's Monuments and Memorials
Philadelphia not only houses sites that retain importance due to their history, Philly additionally harbors many different iconic statues that represent the city overall. Taking pictures next to the world-renowned LOVE statue in Love Park or holding your arms in the air like a champion next to the Rocky statue put the icing on the cake for trips to Philadelphia.
"When I came to Philly a few years ago for the first time one of the things I did right away was run up the Art Museum steps just like Rocky Balboa. Boy did he make it look easy," Jefferson University senior Ryder Weston said.
Similar to Philly's historic locations, most of these monuments and statues stand outside, welcoming visitors to take as many Instagram-worthy pictures as they like.
7. Taking a Bus Tour
Taking a bus tour of the city can ensure that you see everything that Philly offers. From beautiful City Hall to the endless history of the Old City area to the lush and fancy village of Rittenhouse, located within Center City, there are plenty of sights to see in Philly. With many of the tour bus companies implementing social distancing on their vehicles by not allowing passengers to sit too close to one another, along with requiring all riders to wear a mask, a bus tour of the city remains one of the most useful ways to experience Philadelphia.
Check out Big Bus Tours and Philadelphia Tours if you want to enjoy a COVID-safe, hop-on hop-off bus tour of Philadelphia. If you hail from the city and think that you know everything you can about Philly, take one of these tours to see what new knowledge you come out with.
8. Enjoying Live Music
While most indie music venues remain closed due to the pandemic, some bars and restaurants continue to hire independent artists for live entertainment. Though you most likely will not find a full band with original music to watch, your night listening to a solo artist cover classic songs could still be quite enjoyable.
"There was one older guy who brought his little setup. He just had a guitar and a microphone and let me tell you, I would be surprised if there were more than five people not singing along most of the time," Drexel University senior Thomas Lyle said.
Some places to check out if you continue to crave a good meal while being entertained include Ortlieb's and Chris' Jazz Café. It obviously will not be the same as seeing live music before, but as long as concerts can exist in any form for now, many people will take it.
9. Relaxing in A Park
Philadelphia consists of various parks located throughout the entire city. Ranging from smaller squares in the city to massive, multiple lush acre fields scattered around the area, plenty of outdoor spaces are available for those with cabin fever. Open to the public daily, these parks allow people to continue to get together while at the same time allowing everyone their own socially distanced personal space.
"Riding my longboard through Fairmount Park is one of the most calming experiences that I had during everything going on right now," Temple University alumnus Ari Finkle said.
Whether you sit in Rittenhouse Square to read a book and watch the dogs walk by, or ride your bike through the city's greenest areas, visiting a park during these times will surely give you much needed fresh air.
10. Checking Out the Adventure Aquarium
The Adventure Aquarium sits right across the Ben Franklin bridge and lies in Camden, New Jersey, making its actual location outside of Philly. However, the aquarium is just as close to Center City as Philadelphia's sports teams' complexes. The Adventure Aquarium houses over 15,000 aquatic animals and holds different programs that allow interactions with certain animals, such as having a penguin paint you a picture.
"They have penguins that are trained to paint with their feet. It's one of the cutest things that I have ever seen in person," Temple sophomore Keyonna Johnson said.
The aquarium ensures that all visitors wear masks in addition to limiting the number of people who view the exhibits at the same time. If you want to see animals that you wouldn't normally have the chance to see anywhere else, your next visit to Philadelphia should include a stop at the Adventure Aquarium.

I have a student who claims he has seen a new moon (i.e. he could make out the shape in the sky, albeit very faintly). Do you think this is possible (either during the day or the night)? My understanding is that a new moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, making it impossible to see at night, and not in a position to reflect light to Earth during the day.
Why do all the planets in our solar system orbit the Sun on a relatively level plane? How come there aren't planets rotating at angles of, say, 90 degrees from our perspective?
Is it true that Jupiter gives off more heat than the Sun? And why?
What is the new's planets name and how far is it from Earth? Why do scientists care about this planet?

Is Pluto a terrestrial planet or is it a gas giant?
It is known that there are small asteroids with very irregular shapes. What are the forces that give these asteroids their shapes? What shape do you think a neutron star that does not rotate around its axis can have?
How long would it take for us to know if the sun's light had been extinguished?
Are there clouds on other planets? If so, wouldn't there have to be water to form the coulds?
Has any form of life been discovered on a planet? There are billions and billions of stars and galaxy's and planets, and we still have not discovered life, why not? If we did how would we even communicate if they are beings?

Is there an equation which calculates how long the moon is visible on any given day/night at a given location, if we know where we are, which day it is and which phase of the moon it is?
Can an eclipse help or destroy the Earth in any way?
How does the universal balloon demonstrates the way that astronomers believe the universe is changing?
I understand that when a sun begins to die and starts to expand to red giant or supernova the protons have too much great forces acting upon on them that they touch too many protons that they are repelling so much, yet they barely can even push because another atoms are squeezing the protons. Basically the proton needs to escape to somewhere. But how do they escape the sun and where do they go to?
Is there a limit on how low a frequency of RF can be generated by interstellar processes? What is the lowest frequency ever detected in space? This question bears on an interesting effect I worked out about gravitational lenses. Thanks.

I want to know which planet has the most moons. How many do Saturn and Jupiter have.
I want to find out if UFOs are real or aliens are alive.
I have learned that Mars has a thinner atmosphere and smaller acceleration due to gravity compared to Earth. If a lander similar to the Pathfinder were to land on Earth in the same way, would it fall faster or slower than the one on Mars?

What would be the difference between a blackhole with a naked singularity vs. a blackhole with an event horizon. Other than the obvious, what would be difference between those two astronomical anomalies?
If antimatter exists, how could it possibly be contained? If antimatter reacts with matter how could it be contained by matter? I heard that scientists had contained a particle of antimatter at Princeton Physics lab. I was wondering how they did this.
To my understanding, General Relativity allows matter to bends space-time with it's density and collection of mass. If this is the reason as to why planets orbit around stars, why don't they lose energy and fall into the strongest density point? Is there a force that prevents orbiting objects from oscillating inward, or are they already doing it at a incredibly slow rate?
How were the galaxies and space created?

Soyinka Centre postpones award presentation to Osinbajo, VP responds
Action was taken by organisers following protest on social media
in Cover, National
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo
Tessy Igomu, Lagos
The Wole Soyinka Centre for Investigative Journalism (WSCIJ) has postponed the planned presentation of an award to the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo after the news generated protests on social media. Osinbajo was slated to be presented with an Integrity award as part of the 2019 Wole Soyinka Award for Investigative Reporting scheduled to hold on Monday, December 9 in Lagos.
Executive Director/CEO of the Centre, Motunrayo Alaka, in a statement on Monday announcing the postponement, said the "Vice President himself shares this awareness and the inappropriateness of the award at this point."
She explained that the postponement was in response to the protest against what she called, "the repression of freedom of speech" by the present administration, citing the case of the convener of the #RevolutionNow movement and Sahara Reporters' Publisher Omoyele Sowore.
"The postponement was decided on, to align with protests against the repression of #FreedomOfSpeech in recent times, especially the incidence between the Department of State Security (DSS) and @YeleSowore, Publisher of @SaharaReporters, on Friday 6 December.
"The Vice President @ProfOsinbajo himself shares this awareness and the inappropriateness of the award at this point," the statement read.
Responding to the development, the Vice President, through his Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Laolu Akande, issued a statement to the event organisers, stating:
"I am extremely grateful for the recognition and award of the "Integrity Specialty of the Wole Soyinka Centre for Investigative Journalism's Anti-corruption Defender Award of 2019" to me.
"The award, I note, is for our Justice reform efforts in Lagos State. I had accepted the award with pride on behalf of the excellent Justice Sector team we had.
"However, two reasons explain my absence. First is that I am currently in Abu Dhabi for an international meeting under the auspices of the government of the UAE where I am the keynote speaker.
"Second, in view of the developments on Friday in the Sowore case, I think it would be insensitive and inappropriate to attend the ceremony.
"Please accept my heartfelt apologies and extend the same to the other members of the organizing team. God bless you."
The WSCIJ award seeks to honour journalism works with focus on public and corporate corruption, human rights abuses, or failure of regulatory agencies. The presentation usually holds every December 9, on the World Anti-Corruption Day and eve of the World Human Rights Day, to highlight the importance of investigative reporting as a tool for accountability, good governance and social justice in a democracy.
For this edition, 13 journalists from print, online, television, radio, photo, and editorial cartoon categories will be celebrated. Veteran photojournalist Sunmi Smart-Cole and Amnesty International Nigeria will also be presented with the honorary Lifetime Award for Journalistic Excellence and the Anti-Corruption Defender Award (Human Rights Specialty), respectively.

Home News Typhoon in the Philippines : B-FAST reacts !
Typhoon in the Philippines : B-FAST reacts !
On 8 and 9 November a typhoon category 5 had made landfall on the Philippines. Wind speeds up to 300 km/h caused damages and victims. The Philippines authorities launched an international demand for assistance. On 10 November the Coordination Council decided to send a B-FAST team to the area of disaster. This mission consists of 37 people. Two modules are deployed: a advanced medical post and a water purification system. The B-FAST mission will initially operate for 10 days in the area.
On 15 November the B-FAST team has set up and put into production the advanced medical outpost and the water purification system. The first patients have been threated in the medical outpost and potable water has been distributed to local residents. The B-FAST Base of Opations is situated at Palo, a town few kilometers south of Tacloban and assigned to the B-FAST team by the Philippines government in consultation with the EU Civil Protection Team which coordinates on the spot all assistance efforts by participating EU Member States. Even more, the Belgian B-FAST team and the German ISAR team operate together on the same location.
In the meantime our B-FAST-team has treated over 200 patients and has performed multiple operations in the field hospital.
On November 16 November European Commissioner Kristalina Georgieva has paid a visit to the Belgian rescue team who was the first European operational team on site. During her visit, she expressed the will to foresee a longer stay for B-FAST.
On 18 November the B-FAST Governing Board (which assembles the concerned government departments: Foreign Affairs, Defence, Interior, Public Health, Development cooperation, e.a.) decided unanimously not to prolonge the B-FAST mission in the Phlippines. According to Didier REYNDERS, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, this decision has been made on the changed situation: the massive influx of relief goods, the Philippines government regaining control over the situation in the disaster struck areas, etc. A non-governmental organisation has been identified to continue the humanitarian assistance in Palo for at least two months.
The medical outpost will be handed over to the Arbeiter-Samaritaner Bund and the water purification station to the local authorities.
After a successful and appreciated mission, the B-FAST team will return to Belgium in the weekend of 23 November.

The only way to describe Bath England is breathtaking! Way back in 60 AD, the Romans built baths and a temple in the heart of what is now the city. The natural hot spring that they built around is still there and you can visit it and I recommend you do. But, I think the best thing to do in Bath is to simply walk around and explore.
Walking around the heart of Bath will lead you to the Roman Baths, the beautiful cathedral and the Pulteney Bridge. Built in the 18th century, this bridge is incredible. There are several breathtaking views of this bridge like the one above. This bridge runs over the River Avon. On the bridge, there are several shops and a wonderful coffee shop serving hot soups and fresh pastries. Now they even have an Orvis fly fishing store. Heaven on earth!
Coffee shop located on top of the bridge offering hot soups and warm pastries.
The Avon River Cruise will take you upstream. This cruise delivers beautiful views of the city and is incredibly peaceful. This is also a great place to sit and enjoy the sound of the waterfall and the view of the river.
Visiting the Roman Baths is also a must. The city has done a great job of building out an educational tour of the baths that explain how it was built and what they used it for. You are also given access to areas where the water no longer flows but you can see where they changed and the other pools that they would lay in.
This family picture was taken in front of the main pool.
Roman Baths entrance on the right and Cathedral straight ahead.
A view from inside the Roman Baths.
Visible steam on top of the the hot spring.
As you are driving outside of the city you are also privy to breathtaking views over looking the Royal Crescent, which unfortunately I don't have a picture of.
When I first visited this city fifteen years ago, I remember spending one night at about 2am just walking around and admiring the buildings, streets and scenery. No one else was around and everything was quite. I remember thinking that I had been transported back in time. I still remember that night like it happened yesterday.
So on this visit I did the same thing, except this time it wasn't at night but during the day. A flood of thoughts and emotions from my first visit came rushing back to me and I was so thankful that I had the chance to visit Bath once again.
Very Cool! So can you actually go in the bath water??
You can but only by paying for the spa. The actual tour doesn't allow you to enter the water. However, I had all of the kids touch the water to feel how warm it was.


Why It Is Important to Have Air Conditioning in Your Facility With an enclosure, the environment inside it is controlled and kept away from the harsh conditions that are outside of its scope. It is designed to allow an effective performance while it is inside than when it is outside this enclosed atmosphere. The AC system somehow is the one that produces this comfortable condition to human beings so that they in return are able to work with greater efficiency and with greater vigor than when they are outside. Here are some of the advantages of working in an air conditioned environment and the reason why most businesses are compelled to spend thousands of dollars to keep their facilities cooled. If the room temperature is high (meaning that it is hot) not all the heat from the body is released and the person would start to feel uncomfortable from deep within. This causes irritation of mind and lack of concentration. One feels down and very tired even in such a short time when one is in this kind of working environment. A well cooled room from an air conditioning system will allow a worker to concentrate and be comfortable in the working environment, thus making him more productive.
Unlike an inert air that stays in a closure, the air conditioner helps circulate the air found inside a secured place by sucking it out and filtering out dust and dirt particles, smoke, microorganisms, bacteria etc. and sending it back as clean air, thus creating a healthy and a refined environment.
In this closed environment, it is not only dirt particles filtered out but also the noise in the outside is filtered out so that the people inside can have full concentrations and a stress free working environment. Soundproofing the enclosures which has the highest potential for noise to seep in is possible with air conditioning systems and with this it can provide an atmosphere where workers do not need to be distracted or upset over the unpleasant sounds they hear from the outside. All the advantage given above are just to show that having air conditioning in your business place is not just as a luxury but we can see how necessary it is to have one in a business environment. It is not possible to produce clean air out of an isolated or enclosed room without any device for removing these dirt particles in the air, and that is why air conditioning systems and very important and essential in any enclosure. If there is no air conditioning you cannot maximize the comfort of the people working inside the enclosure. The new air conditioning systems today are extremely efficient since they are able to recover heat from warmer areas and redistribute them to cooler areas. Air conditioning also help business office equipment found in modern workplaces to be greatly protected.

B.C. kills 237 wolves while court challenge of air hunt pending
By Natasha Bulowski | News, Ottawa Insider | May 3rd 2021

The B.C. government killed 237 wolves as part of its wolf cull program over the winter despite a court challenge on the legality of the aerial practice.
Pacific Wild, a B.C.-based environmental group, launched a legal petition in July 2020 claiming the province's wolf cull program is unlawful because it contradicts wildlife regulations and federal aviation laws. But because of COVID-19 and court delays, a hearing date hasn't yet been set.
The wolf cull involves radio-collaring single wolves, tracking them to their packs, and then aerial gunning the animals from helicopters. The government program is supposed to help caribou populations rebound, but its efficacy is widely disputed by environmentalists and biologists.
"The wolf cull, as it's currently done, is illegal," said Rebeka Breder, an animal law lawyer for Pacific Wild. "It contravenes some very specific provisions under the Wildlife Act and its regulations."

The legal petition claims Canadian Aviation Security Regulations that prohibit a person having a loaded firearm on an aircraft applies to the aerial cull.
As well, Section 27 of the Wildlife Act prohibits hunting from an aircraft, using a helicopter to transport hunters, and using a helicopter during a hunting expedition, Breder explained. Exceptions to these prohibitions allow for a regional manager from the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development to permit people to hunt from an aircraft, but until recently, there was no exemption for using a helicopter for the purposes of hunting.
However, on Jan. 28, the B.C. government brought in new regulations allowing the use of a helicopter during a hunting expedition.
The new regulations also included other provisions where an aircraft or a helicopter can be used for or during a hunting expedition for reasons such as scientific purposes or proper management of a wildlife resource.
Laurie McConnell, a spokesperson for Pacific Wild, says the government was out of line to carry out the cull while the matter was before the courts. "As the pandemic stretched on … it seems they made a decision to actually change the law to get around it so they could do the cull this year."
237 wolves were killed as part of B.C.'s wolf cull program last winter, despite a pending court case challenging the legality of the aerial cull. Biologists say wolf culling doesn't help reverse dwindling caribou populations.
When asked about the court documents filed by Pacific Wild, the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development did not comment on the lawsuit directly, but said this year's wolf cull took place after the regulations were changed.
"In 2021, regulations under the Wildlife Act were amended that require individuals to meet specific criteria in order to be eligible to apply for permits to use aircraft for the purpose of hunting, including for wolf control," a ministry spokesperson said in a statement to Canada's National Observer. "While these changes were being made, no wolf cull was taking place; reduction of wolf numbers only resumed after the regulations were finalized."
Breder said it was disrespectful for the provincial government to attempt an end run around the court case. "On the face of it, it seems like the government closed whatever loopholes they had," she said. However, she added she doesn't think these changes will impact the lawsuit.
She said the regulations don't go far enough to specify what is needed to hunt by air, leaving a lot of discretion to the regional manager to decide who is exempt. However, the Wildlife Act says the lieutenant-governor in council makes the regulations around when hunting is allowed.
"There's nothing in the regulations that gives the regional manager that discretion, which is what they've been using for years," said Breder.
B.C.'s wolf cull program is supposed to help caribou populations rebound, but a recent study published in the Journal of Biology and Conservation found the government-sponsored kill program has had no detectable effect on reversing the decline of endangered caribou populations.
"Wolves are an apex predator. They are crucial in the role of a healthy ecosystem, and to take that away is going to jeopardize the entire ecosystem," said Rebeka Breder, an animal law lawyer for Pacific Wild. Photo by Ian McAllister
"Killing wolves from helicopters is absolutely inhumane," said Breder. "It is not the wolves' fault that the caribou are endangered right now."
She said the government has failed to properly manage wildlife habitat essential for caribou populations by allowing logging in critical habitats, road building and industry, like mining.
"And now all of a sudden, they're using wolves as a scapegoat to cover up their neglect over the last few decades," said Breder.
John and Mary Theberge are wolf research biologists with over 40 years of experience.
They say logging is the real culprit behind dwindling caribou populations.
"(The decline) happened in B.C. because of habitat destruction, forest fragmentation, logging, and all that is reduced habitat," said John Theberge.
Logging ruins caribou habitat and this lack of habitat limits the caribou herd's ability to bounce back, which is why wolf culling is not the solution, they said.
The existence of wolves has huge ramifications for even the smallest organisms in an ecosystem, and predator-prey relationships aren't as simple as the government's wolf cull program makes them seem, said John Theberge.
The Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development says rehabilitating the caribou population is a top priority for the provincial government.
"Our government's approach to predator control is based on science and sound wildlife management principles," the ministry said. "We also acknowledge that this is not a long-term solution. Caribou recovery is a complex challenge, requiring multiple tools applied across the landscape to address it."
To date, over 500,000 people have signed Pacific Wild's petition to save B.C. wolves and the group is urging British Columbians to write to their MLA demanding the provincial government hold off on all aerial gunning programs until the court case is heard.
