Peter Arshinov
Peter Arshinov was born in 1887. He was from a working class Russian family. During the Russian Revolution of 1905, Arshinov joined the Bolsheviks and published their newspaper. He then moved to Ukraine and became an anarchist. He carried out terrorist attacks, including bombings and assassinations. He was arrested and imprisoned in Moscow. In prison, he met the Ukrainian anarchist Nestor Makhno and became his teacher.
After the 1917 Revolution, Arshinov and Makhno were released from prison. Makhno returned to Ukraine, while Arshinov stayed in Moscow. When Makhno's Insurgent Army beat the Central Powers, Arshinov went to Ukraine and joined Makhno. Arshinov established the Nabat, a Ukrainian anarchist organisation. Arshinov also edited the Makhnovshchina's newspaper "The Road to Freedom".
Arshinov witnessed the Insurgent Army's conflict with both the Red and White armies. In 1921, he went into exile in Berlin. There he wrote his "History of the Makhnovist Movement". In 1925, he moved to Paris and established the magazine "Delo Truda". He co-wrote the "Organisational Platform of the General Union of Anarchists", which called for anarchists to be more organised. The "Platform" was controversial and Arshinov was accused of authoritarianism. In the 1930s, Arshinov left the anarchist movement and became a communist. He moved to the Soviet Union, where he was killed in the Great Purge.
Gold-digging ant
The gold-digging ant is a mythical insect from the Baltistan region of northeastern Pakistan. It is mentioned in old stories like the Greek historian, Herodotus' book "Histories". According to these tales, these ants were big like dogs or foxes and had fur. They would dig into the ground to find gold.
In Herodotus' writings, he talks about these furry "ants" that were as big as foxes. They lived in a sandy desert in the far eastern part of the Persian Empire (modern-day Pakistan), where the sand had tiny pieces of gold. When these giant ants dug their tunnels, they would sometimes bring up the gold dust, which the people there would then collect.
The first mention of these legendary insects was in the 5th century BC. In his book Histories, Herodotus talks about large, furry "ants" that are as big as foxes. He says they live in a sandy desert in one of the far eastern provinces of the Persian Empire (modern Pakistan). This place has sand with tiny pieces of gold in it. These big ants would dig tunnels, and sometimes they'd find gold dust, which the people of the area would collect.
In his book "The Ants' Gold: The Discovery of the Greek El Dorado in the Himalayas," Michel Peissel, a French expert, thinks that these "ants" Herodotus talked about might actually be Himalayan marmots found in Pakistan's Gilgit-Baltistan province. Just like the area Herodotus mentioned, the ground there has gold dust. Peissel talked to the Minaro tribe who live there, and they said they've been collecting gold dust for years, which the marmots bring up when they dig burrows. This story was well known in ancient times, and later writers like Pliny the Elder wrote about it too.
Peissel says that Herodotus might have mixed up the Persian words for "marmot" and "mountain ant" because he didn't speak Persian and had to rely on translators. Herodotus himself didn't see these gold-digging "ants"; he was just repeating what he heard from other travelers.
The story about the "Gold-digging ants" has been around for more than 2,500 years, people have talked about big "ants" in a far place that dug gold and made the Persian Empire rich. Some historians thought it was true, while others thought it was too crazy to believe. People in ancient Athens and Rome believed in this story, and even Alexander the Great knew about it. Many people have tried to understand this mystery over the years.
Now, a group of explorers claims they've figured it out. They believe they've found the place where these legendary gold-digging ants lived, in the Himalayas near the upper Indus River. These huge furry "ants," first mentioned by Herodotus over 2,000 years ago, are actually big marmots. They're like foxes but not as big as dogs. These marmots still bring up soil with gold in it as they dig their burrows. And the explorers found local people called Minaro who've been collecting this gold dust for generations.
Other explorers had thought these ancient "ants" were marmots before, but they didn't know where people actually found the gold. Now, the explorers think they've found that place. This place is called the Dansar (Deosai) plain, high up in the Himalayas in northern Pakistan. It's a remote area where the Indus River flows through deep gorges. There are small villages of Minaro tribal people who've lived there for a long time, still keeping ancient traditions.
A French researcher named Michel Peissel first heard about this from the Minaro people 14 years ago. They told him that they used to collect gold dust from marmot burrows in Dansar (Deosai). It took a long time for Peissel and a photographer to get permission to visit the Minaro people on the Pakistani side of the border. In Pakistan, they heard the same stories from the villagers. They went to the Dansar plain and saw the marmots digging. They even found soil with gold in it.
Experts have wondered why Herodotus called these creatures "ants" when they were actually marmots. Peissel thinks it's because the Persian word for marmot sounds like "mountain ant." And Herodotus didn't speak Persian"."

2024 United Nations Climate Change Conference
The 2024 United Nations Climate Change Conference or Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), which most people call COP29, will be the 29th United Nations Climate Change conference. Mukhtar Babayev will be the president of the conference: he is a government minister and used to work for Azerbaijan's national oil company SOCAR.
The conference's committee had 28 people at first, all men. After Christiana Figueres, the Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, and other people complained, another two men and eleven women were added.
Some people say that having COP29 in Azerbaijan is a bad thing because the government does bad things to people, like putting journalists in prison. But other people say that, because lots of foreign people will be looking at Azerbaijan during COP29, the government will be embarrassed about doing bad things to people.
Some people say that the government has damaged its own environment, and is just pretending to care. Azerbaijan gets a lot of money by selling oil and gas to other countries.

Blind Owl
The Blind Owl (1936; , "Boof-e koor", ) is a novel written by the Iranian author Sadegh Hedayat, first published in 1936. It is considered a significant work in modern Persian literature, exploring themes of despair, existentialism, and the complex interplay between reality and illusion.
The novel presents a surreal and psychological narrative, following the experiences of an unnamed protagonist who recounts his story in a non-linear and dreamlike manner. Through its dark and haunting atmosphere, "The Blind Owl" delves into the depths of the human psyche, leaving a lasting impact on Persian literature.
The story is about a painter who doesn't have a name and feels really sad after losing a lover. He talks to a shadow on his wall that looks like an owl and shares his dark thoughts. In his weird dreams, he believes that death destroys everything imaginary. The narrator thinks we come from death and it frees us from the fake attractions of life. The novel has two parts. The first part is like a strange dream with the narrator on opium, his complicated feelings for a woman, and a strange old man. The second part tells the same story more realistically, with some details that don't match the first part.
"The Blind Owl" is known for its unique narrative style, characterized by fragmented storytelling and symbolic richness. Hedayat's prose creates a somber (dark) and
introspective atmosphere, drawing readers into the labyrinth of the protagonist's mind.
The novel has had a lasting impact on Persian literature and has been translated into various languages, allowing a broader audience to engage with its profound themes. "The Blind Owl" remains a classic, with its exploration of the human psyche and existential concerns continuing to captivate readers worldwide.
"The Blind Owl" stands as a cornerstone of modern Persian literature, offering a thought-provoking exploration of despair, existentialism, and the intricate relationship between reality and illusion.

Inclusive society
An inclusive society - based on the principles of social justice, allows all people access and full participation in society, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ethnic group, race, religion and socioeconomic status. Inclusion is defined as involving people with disabilities in everyday activities and ensuring they have access to resources and opportunities similar to their non-disabled peers. An inclusive society is considered to be the ability of an individual to find himself in a healthy environment. This can be in the form of development, education, volunteering and other forms.
Expanding social protection is essential for all countries to achieve sustainable development goals. In an inclusive society, it doesn't matter where you come from, who you love or whether you have an illness or disability. However, an inclusive society does not arise by itself. This primarily depends on the reforms carried out by the elected government structures. But, there are still closed governments that suppress human rights and freedoms in order to maintain their long-term power. In 2020, Klaus Schwab, the founder of the World Economic Forum, stated that the crisis has sharply exposed global inequalities. According to Klaus Schwab, the pandemic has unmasked leaders who work primarily for themselves and not for the benefit of citizens.
As defined by the United Nations, an inclusive society is a set of coordinated social institutions that transcends differences of race, gender, generation, geography and ensures inclusion, equal opportunities and the determination of the capabilities of all members of society. All the developed countries in the world are currently working on the full establishment of such societies.
Inclusion consists of empowering members of society who have been discriminated against and whose rights have been violated as a result of social and political processes.
The scope of this organization's work on establishing fair and inclusive societies includes many countries in Europe, Asia, Latin America and even Africa . Institute Swedish diplomat who saved tens of thousands of Jews and other people in Hungary at the end of World War II.
Research and expertise center is particularly distinguished from the research and development institutes.
The promise of leaving no one behind is one of the defining features of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.The 2030 Agenda envisions peaceful, just and inclusive societies in which all people can fulfill their potential with dignity and equality. Failure to provide inclusive societies is identified as a root cause of violence and slows down sustainable development. Goals 10 and 16 directly address an inclusive society. Achieving an inclusive society by reducing inequality worldwide, with a focus on equal opportunities and expanded representation, is a key requirement for sustainable peace.
Mechanisms of economic growth in inclusive societies are posted on the website of the World Economic Forum.
The benefits of an inclusive societies approach to people have been proven through research. The desired impacts range from economic benefits to other development goals, social cohesion and lasting peace.
However, there is little evidence on whether inclusiveness makes peace processes and political settlements more inclusive or more sustainable. Research in this direction is still being conducted.

The bank's establishment was part of a three-part expansion of federal fiscal and monetary power, championed by Alexander Hamilton, first Secretary of the Treasury. The bank's establishment faced resistance from opponents of increased federal power, including Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. The bank's charter expired in 1811, and it was succeeded by the Second Bank of the United States. The bank building is a National Historic Landmark located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and is currently closed to the public, with plans to reopen as a museum in 2026.
Polypedates ranwellai
Ranwella's spined tree frog ("Polypedates ranwellai") is a frog. It lives in Sri Lanka. People have seen it 150 meters above sea level.
This frog lives in and near forests. People have seen them where the tree branches do not come together like a roof but they see even more of them deeper in the forest where the tree branches do come together like a roof. Scientists think this frog hatches out of its egg as a small frog and never swims as a tadpole, but they are not sure. Scientists saw two frogs mating and then saw the female frog dig what may have been a nest on the ground, but they decided not to move.
Scientists believe this frog is in danger of dying out because it lives in only a few small places and because human beings still change those places. Human beings come into their forests to take wood, build farms, and build machines on water to make electricity. Human beings also cut down small forests to build towns. Climate change has changed rainfall, which also makes life harder for this frog.
Scientists named this frog for Sanjeewa Ranwella, a doctor who helped save Gilimale forest.
