# Joint Understanding Read by President Bush at Annapolis Conference

November 27, 2007
PRESIDENT BUSH: The representatives of the government of the state of Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization, represented respective by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, and President Mahmoud Abbas in his capacity as Chairman of the PLO Executive Committee and President of the Palestinian Authority, have convened in Annapolis, Maryland, under the auspices of President George W. Bush of the United States of America, and with the support of the participants of this international conference, having concluded the following joint understanding.
We express our determination to bring an end to bloodshed, suffering and decades of conflict between our peoples; to usher in a new era of peace, based on freedom, security, justice, dignity, respect and mutual recognition; to propagate a culture of peace and nonviolence; to confront terrorism and incitement, whether committed by Palestinians or Israelis. In furtherance of the goal of two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security, we agree to immediately launch good-faith bilateral negotiations in order to conclude a peace treaty, resolving all outstanding issues, including all core issues without exception, as specified in previous agreements.
We agree to engage in vigorous, ongoing and continuous negotiations, and shall make every effort to conclude an agreement before the end of 2008. For this purpose, a steering committee, led jointly by the head of the delegation of each party, will meet continuously, as agreed. The steering committee will develop a joint work plan and establish and oversee the work of negotiations teams to address all issues, to be headed by one lead representative from each party. The first session of the steering committee will be held on 12 December 2007.
President Abbas and Prime Minister Olmert will continue to meet on a bi-weekly basis to follow up the negotiations in order to offer all necessary assistance for their advancement.
The parties also commit to immediately implement their respective obligations under the performance-based road map to a permanent two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict, issued by the Quartet on 30 April 2003 -- this is called the road map -- and agree to form an American, Palestinian and Israeli mechanism, led by the United States, to follow up on the implementation of the road map.
The parties further commit to continue the implementation of the ongoing obligations of the road map until they reach a peace treaty. The United States will monitor and judge the fulfillment of the commitment of both sides of the road map. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, implementation of the future peace treaty will be subject to the implementation of the road map, as judged by the United States.

# Joint Statement on Israel

whitehouse.gov
Today, we — President Macron of France, Chancellor Scholz of Germany, Prime Minister Meloni of Italy, Prime Minister Sunak of the United Kingdom, and President Biden of the United States — express our steadfast and united support to the State of Israel, and our unequivocal condemnation of Hamas and its appalling acts of terrorism.
We make clear that the terrorist actions of Hamas have no justification, no legitimacy, and must be universally condemned. There is never any justification for terrorism. In recent days, the world has watched in horror as Hamas terrorists massacred families in their homes, slaughtered over 200 young people enjoying a music festival, and kidnapped elderly women, children, and entire families, who are now being held as hostages.
Our countries will support Israel in its efforts to defend itself and its people against such atrocities. We further emphasize that this is not a moment for any party hostile to Israel to exploit these attacks to seek advantage.
All of us recognize the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people, and support equal measures of justice and freedom for Israelis and Palestinians alike. But make no mistake: Hamas does not represent those aspirations, and it offers nothing for the Palestinian people other than more terror and bloodshed.
Over the coming days, we will remain united and coordinated, together as allies, and as common friends of Israel, to ensure Israel is able to defend itself, and to ultimately set the conditions for a peaceful and integrated Middle East region.

# Joint Statement on Holodomor

* related portals: United Nations, Ukraine.
* sister projects: Wikipedia article, Wikidata item.
Monday, November 10, 2003 at the United Nations in New York
In the former Soviet Union millions of men, women and children fell victims to the cruel actions and policies of the totalitarian regime. The Great Famine of 1932-1933 in Ukraine (Holodomor), which took from 7 million to 10 million innocent lives and became a national tragedy for the Ukrainian people. In this regard we note activities in observance of the seventieth anniversary of this Famine, in particular organized by the Government of Ukraine.
Honouring the seventieth anniversary of the Ukrainian tragedy, we also commemorate the memory of millions of Russians, Kazakhs and representatives of other nationalities who died of starvation in the Volga River region, Northern Caucasus, Kazakhstan and in other parts of the former Soviet Union, as a result of civil war and forced collectivization, leaving deep scars in the consciousness of future generations.
Expressing sympathy to the victims of the Great Famine, we call upon all Member States, the United Nations and its special agencies, international and regional organizations, as well as non-governmental organizations, foundations and associations to pay tribute to the memory of those who perished during that tragic period of history.
Recognizing the importance of raising public awareness on the tragic events in the history of mankind for their prevention in future, we deplore the acts and policies that brought about mass starvation and death of millions of people. We do not want to settle scores with the past, it could not be changed, but we are convinced that exposing violations of human rights, preserving historical records and restoring the dignity of victims through acknowledgement of their suffering, will guide future societies and help to avoid similar catastrophes in the future. We need that as many people as possible learn about this tragedy and consider that this knowledge will strengthen effectiveness of the rule of law and enhance respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms.

# Joint Statement on the Middle East

whitehouse.gov
We, the leaders of the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy discussed the situation in the Middle East. We expressed our full support for ongoing efforts to de-escalate tensions and reach a ceasefire and hostage release deal in Gaza. We endorsed the joint call from President Biden, President Sisi of Egypt, and Amir Tamim of Qatar to renew talks later this week with an aim to concluding the deal as soon as possible, and stressed there is no further time to lose. All parties must live up to their responsibilities. In addition, unfettered delivery and distribution of aid is needed. We expressed our support for the defense of Israel against Iranian aggression and against attacks by Iran-backed terrorist groups. We called on Iran to stand down its ongoing threats of a military attack against Israel and discussed the serious consequences for regional security should such an attack take place.

# Joint Statement on Afghanistan

Given the deteriorating security situation, we support, are working to secure, and call on all parties to respect and facilitate, the safe and orderly departure of foreign nationals and Afghans who wish to leave the country. Those in positions of power and authority across Afghanistan bear responsibility—and accountability—for the protection of human life and property, and for the immediate restoration of security and civil order.
Afghans and international citizens who wish to depart must be allowed to do so; roads, airports and border crossing must remain open, and calm must be maintained.
The Afghan people deserve to live in safety, security and dignity. We in the international community stand ready to assist them.
# Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre is a novel by English writer Charlotte Brontë. It was published on 16 October 1847 by Smith, Elder & Co. of London, England, under the pen name "Currer Bell".
Primarily of the bildungsroman genre, Jane Eyre follows the emotions and experiences of its eponymous character, including her growth to adulthood, and her love for Mr. Rochester, the byronic master of fictitious Thornfield Hall. In its internalization of the action—the focus is on the gradual unfolding of Jane's moral and spiritual sensibility and all the events are colored by a heightened intensity that was previously the domain of poetry—the novel revolutionized the art of fiction. Charlotte Brontë has been called the 'first historian of the private consciousness' and the literary ancestor of writers like Joyce and Proust. The novel contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of morality at its core, but is nonetheless a novel many consider ahead of its time given the individualistic character of Jane and the novel's exploration of classism, sexuality, religion, and proto-feminism.
    — Excerpted from Jane Eyre on Wikipedia.

# Journal of the Straits Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society/Volume 49/Note on the Malay Game "Jongkak"

See also "New Notes on the Game of "Chongkak"" in Journal of the Straits Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, 68 (1915)

## Note on the Malay Game 'Jongkak.'

By M. Hellier.
I lately obtained, and sent to the Raffles Museum for exhibition, the playing-board and seeds for the Malay game "Jongkak."
Haji Othman the Visiting Teacher of Province Wellesley, from whom I obtained the board, describes Jongkak as a women's game originally played by the ladies at the courts of the Malay Rajas. The playing board is shaped like a junk or boat, and, according to Haji Othman, the name of the game is derived from "jong" a junk. The board has 7 holes on each side, with a larger hole or compartment at each end.
The game is one for two people and is usually played with Tamarind or other seeds, but marbles are now sometimes used. Each player has one "village" (kampong) or row of holes, and in each side hole she places 7 seeds. The board is then ready for play.
The players start together. Each player taking the 7 seeds from the hole on her right and carrying them from right to left, drops one in each hole, the last seed falling into the large hole at the end. This seed is said to have "entered the house" (naik rumah) and this house belongs to the player on whose left it lies.
Each player then takes all the seeds from any one of the other holes in her "village" and moving as before from right to left around the board again drops a seed into each hole, taking care to drop one into her own 'house' but none into her opponent's.
Should the last seed fall into an empty hole the player is dead (mati), and must wait until the other player is 'dead' before she can again play. If this hole is in the player's own "village" any seeds in the opposite hole on her opponent's side may be taken and put into the "house." This is said to be (?) "a sacrifice" (mati béla).
​When the last seed falls into a hole in which there are other seeds, these are taken and the player continues in play, and should the last seed fall into the player's "house" she also continues in play, taking the seeds from any hole in her "village."
When no more seeds remain in a player's "village" she is said to be "once defeated" (kalah sa-papan). She may however, take any seeds there may be in her "house" and place them again in the holes in her "village" putting 7 in a hole as before. Should any holes be left empty they are called "ruined wells" (telaga burok) and the player owning "ruined wells" must wait until her opponent is dead before playing again.
The game goes on in this way until a player has lost all her seeds. She is then "utterly destroyed" (mati kena abu). Skeat, who calls the game "chongkak," gives a short descripion of it in his "Malay Magic."

# Is It Really Any Good?

from The Idler, Vol 23, 1903
IS IT REALLY ANY GOOD?
By CY WARMAN
You're a critic in your attic up above the dust and din,
On an essay you're in duty bound to do;
When your sanctum opens softly and a sonneteer comes in,
Who was never any good, to you.
But the poet smiles serenely while you're stifling a moan,
For he wants your honest judgment on an effort of his own;
When you tell him that it's rotten and the sonneteer is gone— Is it really any good, to you?
Were you ever any good, to him, William?
Was he ever any good to you?
Could you help him if you would,
Would you scalp him if you could— Is he really any good, to you?
You're a Beauty, by the Bard and by the Belted Hero wooed,
Doing nothing, for you've nothing else to do.
Or, perhaps, you're pouring Pink Tea for a pink-a-doodle-dude
Who was never any good, to you.
When you listen to his lyric of the diamond in the skies.
With a glimmer that is dimmer than the shimmer of your eyes;
When he tells you where his treasure lies, and other little lies— Is he really any good, to you?
Was he ever any good, to you, girlie?
He was never any good, to you.
Would you lose him if you could,
Could you lose him if you would,
Is he really any good, to you?
You're a Merger, with a hundred million dollars in the bank,
Up and doing till there's no one left to do.
When your ship is on the ocean, and the oil is in the tank,
Is it really any good, to you?
When you're owning all that's ownable between the earth and sky,
Every four-and-twenty hours will another day go by;
But you couldn't eat a carrot lest you'd double up and die— Is it really any good, to you?
It was never any good, to me, Rocky;
Was it ever any good, to you?
Could you stop it if you would,
Would you stop it if you could— Is it really any good, to you?
You're a soldier. There's a Sultan on a lonely little isle.
Doing nothing, for there's nothing else to do.
When you hail him and the Heathen comes to greet you with a smile— Is it really any good, to you?
You approach him with your Bible and your bottle and your gun,
If he doesn't hike he's High-balled and you'll shoot him if he run;
When a hundred weedless widows stand aweeping in the sun— Are they really any good, to you?
Were you ever any good, to him, Johnny?
Was he ever any good, to you?
You could win him if he would,
You would skin him if you could,— For he isn't any good, to you.

XII.— THE SHORTEST WAY TO ABSOLUTE POWER.
170.—Periander, king of Corinth, at first, indeed, was humane ; but ever since he had intercourse through messengers with Thrasybulus, tyrant of the Milesians, he became cruel and sanguinary. Having sent a herald to Thrasybulus, he asked of him, ‘How, after settling everything most securely, he could best rule the state?’ Thrasybulus, after leading out of the city the man who had been sent by Periander, entered a certain sown field, and walking through the com, and inquiring of him why he had been sent to him from Corinth, kept meanwhile cutting down every ear that rose above others, until in this way he had destroyed the most beautiful and rich part of the crop. At last, after wandering thus over the field, he dismissed the ambassador without giving him any directions. When the ambassador returned to Corinth, Periander was desirous of learning the advice of Thrasybulus. The ambassador replied that Thrasybulus had given him no commands. Then he reported what he had seen Thrasybulus doing. But Periander, understanding the act, and imagining that he was advised by Thrasybulus to kill all the most distinguished citizens, then began to practise every wickedness against the citizens. Soon he was able, after killing all the chief men, to do everything he wished.

III.—ANECDOTES.
A neat compliment.
141.—Darius put Megabazus, a Persian, in command of the army, and he had honoured him greatly by uttering this saying of him before the Persians. Darius had desired to eat some pomegranates: and after he opened the first pomegranate, his brother Artabanus asked him what there was, of which he wished he had as a great a number, as the number of seeds in a pomegranate? And Darius answered him, ‘That he would like to have as many Megabazi; for he would prefer that to Greece subdued under his power.’
The gold trade.
142.—The Carthaginians relate that there is a place in Libya, beyond the Columns of Hercules, and men living there: and that when they themselves approach them for the sake of trading, the merchandise being landed from the ship is laid out by them on the sea shore itself: then that they, having again embarked, raise a smoke: that the aborigines, on seeing the smoke approach the sea, and having laid down gold instead of her merchandise again retire from the shore : that the Carthaginians having disembarked, then see into the business; and, if they find a sufficient quantity of gold, go away: but if not, that they retire to their vessels until enough gold has been found.
An odd remedy for a cold.
143.—They say that the wandering tribes of Libya do as follows. When boys have completed their fourth year, then they burn the veins on the top of their heads with wool, some also burn the veins of the temple. And they do this for this reason, namely, that they may not in succeeding time be ​troubled with any disease of the head. For this leason they say that they enjoy admirable health. For truly the Libyans enjoy the strongest health of any men we know. Whether this happens from this reason, I, for my part, cannot say for certain, but they are certainly very strong. Moreover, I relate things which are told by the Africans themselves.

V.—A HAIRBREADTH ESCAPE.
153.—Formerly a certain Sandoces was set over the city of Cyme. Darius ordered him to be led to the gallows, on finding ​that he, when he was judge, had pronounced an unjust sentence, after receiving a bribe. And he was already hung up; when Darius, taking an account with himself of the things done by him, discovered that his deserving actions towards the royal house were much more numerous than his misdeeds. On finding this, acknowledging that he had acted with more haste than wisdom, he ordered the man to be cut down. Thus he escaped the punishment decreed by Darius, and survived.
