Сенат США одобрил финансирование оборонных программ на 2017 год

доступен на его сайтеОдобренный сенатом законопроект "В оборонном бюджете на 2017 год финансирование нашей инициативы по поддержке безопасности Европы, направленной на сдерживание российской агрессии, увеличено вчетверо", - заявил Картер, призвав сенат быстрее одобрить увеличение бюджета."В нашем бюджете отдается приоритет тому, с чем мы не сталкивались ранее", - пояснил он, предупредив, что задержка с одобрением документа о финансировании может поставить под угрозу всю европейскую оборонную инициативу. Как отметил Картер, в нынешнем году Пентагон был вынужден сделать предотвращение российской агрессии одним из ключевых компонентов оборонной стратегии впервые за долгое время.В рамках американского бюджета на сдерживание России в будущем году планируется потратить $3,4 млрд. Такую сумму Пентагон запросил в феврале. Деньги пойдут на размещение сил НАТО, в частности сил армии США, в Центральной и Восточной Европе. На первом этапе плана в Эстонии, Латвии, Литве и Поьше разместят четыре батальона общей численностью в 4 тысячи человек.

Coronavirus: Marseille's Covid-19 hospital beds 'close to saturation'

Surgeries are being reduced to cope with an incidence rate that has risen to 312 per 100,000 since September.New limits on gatherings are being introduced around Marseille and in the south-western city of Bordeaux.The two cities are the main new hotspots in a country that on Saturday recorded a big surge in cases.The 10,561 new infections over 24 hours represented the biggest rise since large-scale testing began.The figures for Sunday and Monday were lower - as tends to be the case for weekend reporting - but the seven-day rolling average, which smoothes out these irregularities, recorded an increase in infections for the 28th day in a row.France has recorded more than 425,000 infections, and almost 31,000 deaths, in the coronavirus epidemic, Johns Hopkins University research shows.On Friday, Prime Minister Jean Castex warned of "worrying developments" in Marseille and its department of Bouches-du-Rhône, and in Bordeaux. He called for new measures to be laid out by Monday.At a briefing on Monday, Philippe de Mester, director general of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur health agency, said the rate of positive tests had reached 10.6% in Marseille and 8.5% in the Bouches-du-Rhône overall.Intensive care capacity was close to overload. Marseille hospitals director Jean-Olivier Arnaud said 31 of 35 resuscitation beds and 129 of 155 dedicated Covid patient beds were in use, adding: "We are not far from saturation.""We are at the top of the national ranking of departments whose situation is developing the most unfavourably," Mr de Mester said.Yann Bubien, a Bordeaux hospital director and a member of the government's Covid scientific advisory council, said there had been "a very rapid increase over the past 10 days" in the city."All the warning signals are flashing red," he said.In Marseille and the Bouches-du-Rhône until 1 October:Very similar measures were introduced for Bordeaux, including the 1,000 limit on large-scale gatherings and 10-person limit on private meetings.Additional police will be deployed to enforce the measures in Bordeaux, with the situation to be reviewed in "two or three weeks".In addition, the Monte-Carlo International Festival, the biggest circus event in the world, scheduled for January, has been cancelled.

Labour backs 'Turing law' to quash historical gay convictions

The Labour leader said a new law would allow family and friends of deceased men to seek the quashing of historical convictions for "gross indecency".Legislation would be known as "Turing's Law" in memory of Alan Turing, he said.The Enigma code-breaker was convicted of "gross indecency" in 1952 and was only given a posthumous pardon in 2013.Homosexuality was illegal until it was decriminalised in England in 1967. Mr Turing was convicted for gross indecency in 1952 in connection with an affair with a 19-year-old man, after which he was chemically castrated.The conviction meant he lost his security clearance and had to stop the code-cracking work that had proved vital to the Allies in World War Two.The mathematician was only given a royal pardon in 2013, nearly 60 years after his death by suicide in 1954. This followed an official apology by former prime minister Gordon Brown in 2009 for how Mr Turing had been treated. Relatives of Mr Turing have led a high-profile campaign to secure pardons for the 49,000 other men convicted under historical indecency laws. Announcing his support for the move, Mr Miliband said: "What was right for Alan Turing's family should be right for other families as well."The next Labour government will extend the right individuals already have to overturn convictions that society now see as grossly unfair to the relatives of those convicted who have passed away."Asked whether David Cameron would back Mr Miliband's proposals, No 10 said the prime minister "will always continue to look carefully at what more can be done to right these wrongs".A spokesman pointed out that the coalition government had already passed legislation to allow individuals with historical convictions or cautions for certain homosexual activities to apply for them to be removed from criminal records."It was this government that introduced that 2012 act," said the spokesman. "It was under this government that Mr Turing received the pardon through the use of the royal prerogative."A pardon is only normally granted when the person is innocent of the offence and where a request has been made by someone with a vested interest such as a family member. But, in Mr Turing's case, a pardon was issued without either requirement being met, after an intervention by Lord Chancellor Chris Grayling.

Paris shooting: Witnesses recount panic and horror

Ines said she heard shots and then saw a man's body on the ground. "People were crying and everyone was running around," she told France's BFMTV.Another witness, Chelloug, told Reuters: "There was a police van and the guy came in an Audi A80, an old grey Audi.In pictures: Attack on police in Paris"He parked just behind the van and he got out with a Kalashnikov, and I heard six gunshots. I thought they were firecrackers, because we all looked around the road and there was no-one. "In fact, he was hidden behind the van and shooting at the police. I think he hit a policeman. As soon as the policeman opened the door of the van, he fell, I think. "As soon as we saw that, we all ran back inside the Alain Affelou shop. We hid and I went up to the first floor and we saw them (police officers) shoot him (the gunman)."It was a terrorist. He came out with a Kalashnikov and started shooting, but he could've shot us on the pavement and killed more people with a spray of shots - but he targeted the policemen, and fortunately there were the policemen who killed him."Meanwhile, French journalist and TV presenter Julien Courbet said he was in a nearby restaurant when the shooting began.He tweeted (in French) that he "never experienced such a scene of panic", adding that all the tables inside were overturned as customers ran for cover and lights were turned off. Mr Courbet later confirmed that he had arrived safely home and thanked his followers for their messages of support.Choukri Chouanine, manager of a restaurant near the site of the shooting, told the AFP news agency that "we had to hid our customers in the basement", saying there was "lots of gunfire".

فيروس كورونا: السلطات الصحية البريطانية تقر للمرة الأولى نوعا من الأقراص لعلاج كوفيد-19

أقرت هيئة الدواء في بريطانيا أول علاج لأعراض كوفيد 19 عن طريق الأقراص.وسيُعطى المرضى الذين شخصوا حديثا بكوفيد 19 والأكثر عرضة للخطر أقراص مولنوبيرافير - molnupiravir - مرتين يوميا.وفي التجارب السريرية، فإن هذا الدواء، الذي أُنتج خصيصا لعلاج الأنفلونزا، قلل مخاطر العلاج بالمستشفى أو الوفاة إلى النصف.وقال وزير الصحة البريطاني ساجد جاويد إن هذا العلاج "سيغير قواعد اللعبة" بالنسبة لأصحاب المناعة الضعيفة والأكثر ضعفا.وفي بيان له قال جاويد: "اليوم هو يوم تاريخي لبلادنا، حيث أصبحت المملكة المتحدة أول دولة في العالم توافق على مضاد للفيروسات يمكن أن يتم تناوله في المنزل لعلاج كوفيد".ويعد مولنوبيرافيرالذي طورته شركة الأدوية الأمريكية ميرك أول دواء مضاد للفيروسات عن طرق الفم مخصص لكوفيد.وصمم العقار لإدخال أخطاء في الشفرة الجينية للفيروس، ما يمنعه من الانتشار في الجسم، إنه يعمل عن طريق استهداف إنزيم يستخدمه الفيروس لعمل نسخ منه.وقالت شركة ميرك إن العقار بهذه الخصائص من المفترض أن يكون فاعلا بنفس القدر مع التحورات الجديدة لفيروس كورونا وهو يتطور في المستقبل.كما قالت هيئة تنظيم الأدوية ومنتجات الرعاية الصحية في بريطانيا، إن العقار أُقر استخدامه للأشخاص الذين يعانون من أعراض كوفيد الخفيفة إلى المتوسطة، والذين لديهم عامل خطورة واحد على الأقل، مثل البدانة أو التقدم في العمر أو السكري أو أمراض القلب، حتى لا تتطور حالتهم إلى مرض خطير.ووصفت جون راين، الرئيس التنفيذي للهيئة، العلاج بـ"علاج آخر يضاف إلى ترسانة علاج كوفيد-19".وتابعت قائلة: "إنه أول مضاد فيروسي معتمد في العالم لهذا المرض ويمكن تناوله عن طريق الفم بدلاً من إعطائه عن طريق الوريد. هذا مهم، لأنه يعني أنه يمكن إعطاؤه خارج المستشفى قبل أن يتطور كوفيد إلى مرحلة خطيرة".وطلبت المملكة المتحدة توريد 480 ألف جرعة من العقار بنهاية العام الجاري.وتوصلت التجارب السريرية الأولى على عقار مولنوبيرافير على 775 مريضا من الذين أصيبوا بكوفيد-19، إلى:ونُشرت البيانات في بيان صحفي ولم تخضع بعد لمراجعة النظراء. وتشير نتائج التجربة إلى أن مولنوبيرافير يجب أن يؤخذ في وقت مبكر بعد ظهور الأعراض حتى يكون له تأثير. تم إيقاف دراسة سابقة أجريت على المرضى الذين تم إدخالهم بالفعل إلى المستشفى بسبب الإصابة الحادة بكوفيد بعد نتائج مخيبة للآمال.وتعتبر ميرك الشركة الأولى التي تبلغ عن نتائج التجارب على أقراص لعلاج كوفيد، لكن هناك شركات أخرى تعمل على علاجات مماثلة.وبدأت مؤخرا منافستها الأمريكية فايزر في إجراء تجارب في مراحلها الأخيرة على قرصين مختلفين من مضادات الفيروسات، بينما تعمل شركة روش السويسرية على دواء مشابه.

Неизвестный солдат: минобороны России не стало сообщать о гибели военного в Сирии

Отсюда в середине октября 2018 года 28-летний младший сержант Андраник Арустамян отправился в свою уже вторую по счету командировку в Сирию. Она закончилась для него менее чем через месяц на КПП перед въездом на российскую военную базу.По официальной версии, перед подъехавшим туда военным "Уралом" сдетонировали противотанковые мины, установленные на специальном шлагбауме. Они должны были защищать российских военных от начиненных взрывчаткой машин со смертниками, которые активно используют боевики запрещенного в России "Исламского государства".Отсюда в середине октября 2018 года 28-летний младший сержант Андраник Арустамян отправился в свою уже вторую по счету командировку в Сирию.

Они должны были защищать российских военных от начиненных взрывчаткой машин со смертниками, которые активно используют боевики запрещенного в России "Исламского государства".Центральное место в комнате занимает большая белая печь, вокруг которой построен дом. Рядом на шкафу - несколько фотографий Андраника в военной форме, его медаль "Участнику военной операции в Сирии", иконы. К ковру на стене прикреплен еще один большой, метр на метр, портрет молодого человека с девушкой - за пять месяцев до отправки в Сирию Андраник женился."Это не первая война, были уже Афганистан, Чечня, Карабах, теперь Сирия, - говорит дядя погибшего сержанта Саркис Арустамян. - Сколько молодых ребят после этого, солдат и офицеров, не вернулись домой. Никто не мог знать, что такое случится. Только бог решает, когда забирать жизнь у человека. Давайте помянем тех, кто не вернулся к нам в Тоцкое".Большая часть речей произносится по-армянски, после каждой мужчины поднимают стопки. "За несколько недель до поездки я его спрашивала, зачем ему снова ехать в Сирию, почему нельзя спокойно служить здесь, - рассказывает двоюродная сестра Андраника Вартуш, показывая на телефоне его фотографии. - Он в шутку ответил: "А кто, если не я? Кто страну защищать будет?". То есть понятно, что карьеру хотел сделать, хотел офицером стать, дом новый купить, но в нем было это "кто, если не я".После окончания сельской школы Андраник получил высшее юридическое образование в Бузулуке - городе в 50 километрах от райцентра Тоцкое. Отслужил срочную службу в Башкирии. Вернувшись домой, работал старшим менеджером в "Связном", а потом в магазине бытовой техники и электроники.Но в какой-то момент, рассказывает один из его двоюродных братьев, Арустамян просто понял, что "достиг потолка": "Никакой другой работы, где была хоть какая-то перспектива, тут не найти, а вернувшись в армию на контракт он с его высшим образованием со временем мог бы стать офицером".Центральное место в комнате занимает большая белая печь, вокруг которой построен дом.

"В советское время здесь и хлебозавод работал, и кирпичный, и молокозавод, - рассказывает его дядя. - Но потом все это закрылось, и если сейчас отсюда уйдут и военные, то жизни никакой не останется, все разъедутся".В начале XIX века в этих местах Александр Пушкин собирал материалы для своей "Истории пугачевского бунта". В начале XX века в Тоцком лагере для военнопленных провел несколько месяцев автор "Бравого солдата Швейка" Ярослав Гашек.А вскоре после второй мировой войны, в 1954 году маршал Георгий Жуков проводил на Тоцком полигоне учения "Снежок", в ходе которых на высоте 350 метров над землей была взорвана ядерная бомба, после чего в зону поражения были брошены 40 тысяч солдат и офицеров, которые должны были остановить там прорыв условного противника.На полигоне, который хорошо виден с трассы Самара-Оренбург, в память о тех учениях была установлена стела. После распада СССР пресса активно обсуждала последствия тех учений для экологии, а среди жителей Тоцкого распространено убеждение, что из-за того взрыва уровень онкологических заболеваний в их районе выше, чем в среднем по области.После начала российской военной операции в Сирии среди военнослужащих 21-й бригады активно начали набирать добровольцев для отправки туда. "У половины женщин в Тоцком мужья в Сирии, - рассказывает один из братьев Андраника. - Записываются туда активно: и зарплата течет, и суточные, и надбавки. После трехмесячной командировки домой привозят в среднем 500 тысяч рублей. А если пять-шесть месяцев провел в Сирии, то до миллиона".Армия стала для района чем-то вроде градообразующего предприятия. Один из братьев Андраника также успел побывать в Сирии, думал над тем, чтобы поехать во вторую командировку, но после его гибели передумал."Всем побывавшим там присваивают статус участника боевых действий, а это пожизненная надбавка в три тысячи рублей к зарплате и пенсии, - рассказывает один из родственников Арустамяна. - Военную ипотеку можно взять. А если отслужил 20 лет, то получаешь военную пенсию".При этом на продвижение по службе или на получение внеочередного звания командировки в Сирию большого влияния не оказывают. "Если хочешь родину защищать - отслужи срочку. Но другой же нормальной работы нет. Если бы мог где-то еще получать такую зарплату, ушел бы с армии, - говорит один из братьев Андраника. - 80% семей в районе так или иначе на бригаду завязаны. А так - пустое, мертвое место, нет рабочих мест".С началом сирийской кампании привычным для села стали и похороны тех, кто в Сирии погибает. До 2 ноября, когда в Дейр-эз-Зоре погиб Андраник Арустамян, последний "Груз-200" привозили в Тоцкое в начале марта. Тогда при посадке на базе Хмеймим разбился российский транспортный самолет Ан-26. Министерство обороны объявило, что в результате авиакатастрофы, причиной которой стали технические неполадки, погибли 39 человек."У меня родственница макияжем занимается, - рассказывает один из родственников Андраника, - у нее перед 8 марта все дни были расписаны, но самолет упал 6 марта, и сразу несколько заказов слетело - людям стало не до праздника".Вся жизнь Тоцкого района Оренбургской области, где родился и вырос Андраник, строится вокруг одного из крупнейших в России военных полигонов, рядом с которым дислоцируется 21-я гвардейская мотострелковая бригада.

"Это не первая война, были уже Афганистан, Чечня, Карабах, теперь Сирия, - говорит дядя погибшего сержанта Саркис Арустамян. - Сколько молодых ребят после этого, солдат и офицеров, не вернулись домой. Никто не мог знать, что такое случится. Только бог решает, когда забирать жизнь у человека. Давайте помянем тех, кто не вернулся к нам в Тоцкое". Давайте помянем тех, кто не вернулся к нам в Тоцкое".Большая часть речей произносится по-армянски, после каждой мужчины поднимают стопки. "За несколько недель до поездки я его спрашивала, зачем ему снова ехать в Сирию, почему нельзя спокойно служить здесь, - рассказывает двоюродная сестра Андраника Вартуш, показывая на телефоне его фотографии. Вся жизнь Тоцкого района Оренбургской области, где родился и вырос Андраник, строится вокруг одного из крупнейших в России военных полигонов, рядом с которым дислоцируется 21-я гвардейская мотострелковая бригада. "Всем побывавшим там присваивают статус участника боевых действий, а это пожизненная надбавка в три тысячи рублей к зарплате и пенсии, - рассказывает один из родственников Арустамяна. - Военную ипотеку можно взять. А если отслужил 20 лет, то получаешь военную пенсию". С началом сирийской кампании привычным для села стали и похороны тех, кто в Сирии погибает. До 2 ноября, когда в Дейр-эз-Зоре погиб Андраник Арустамян, последний "Груз-200" привозили в Тоцкое в начале марта. Как следует из справки по факту гибели военнослужащего 1-го батальона 21-й мотострелковой бригады 2-й армии младшего сержанта Андраника Арустамяна, которая была передана его родственникам командованием бригады и с которым ознакомилась Русская служба Би-би-си, трагедия в Аш-Шуле произошла не четвертого, а второго ноября. "В 08:12 (мск) 02 ноября 2018 г. мл. ст. Арустамян А. Н. находился в командировке специальных задач САР (с 14.10.2018 г.) ОГ Эс-Шала на КПП при открывании минного шлагбаума не удержал и опрокинул его. - сказано в документе. - В результате чего при падении шлагбаума произошел подрыв четырех мин. Мл. ст. Арустамян А. Н. получил травмы не совместимые с жизнью". Сколько всего военнослужащих погибло в результате подрыва сразу четырех мин на КПП российской военной базы в Аш-Шуле, родственники Андраника не знают. Уже 3 ноября тело сержанта Арустамяна было доставлено из Сирии в Москву, а на следующий день - в Тоцкое. На похороны военнослужащего пришло все командование 21-й бригады, в военной столовой в городке устроили поминки. "Нельзя сказать, чтобы военные как-то скрывали его гибель или делали из нее тайну, - говорит один из братьев Андраника. - У нас в Тоцком все знали, что он погиб, и командование ни от кого этого не скрывало. Другое дело, что министерство обороны, конечно, старается не сообщать лишний раз о потерях, чтобы не отпугивать новых добровольцев, чтобы условно такие как я шли и подписывали новые контракты и ехали в Сирию".18 декабря Русская служба Би-би-си направила в министерство обороны запрос с просьбой сообщить, сколько российских военнослужащих погибли в Сирии с октября 2018 года, но за прошедшие с этого момента три недели не получила никакого ответа. Подписывая контракт перед второй командировкой в Сирию, Андраник Арустамян хотел заработать не только на новый дом, но и на лечение отца, который долго боролся с тяжелым онкологическим заболеванием. 12 декабря, когда в Медведке вспоминали Андраника на 40-й день после гибели, состояние здоровья его отца не позволило корреспондентам Би-би-си с ним поговорить.

Dead Indian guru frozen by devotees

Ashutosh Maharaj was declared dead by authorities in Punjab on 29 January after a suspected heart attack. But, confident that he was merely in a state of deep meditation, his followers froze his corpse. He led the Divya Jyoti Jagrati Sansthan (Divine Light Awakening Mission) which claims more than 30 million followers. "He is not dead. Medical science does not understand things like yogic science. We will wait and watch. We are confident that he will come back," his spokesman Swami Vishalanand told the BBC.He said that although doctors had declared Maharaj "clinically dead", he was actually alive and in a state of samadhi, which is the highest plane of meditation.The guru is thought to have been in his seventies. Swami Vishalanand said the guru had "often indicated that he would not be with for us a long time, and we would have to manage the organisation in his absence".He said after the doctors declared him dead, his devotees watched over the body for a week at the centre in Punjab's Jalandhar city."The body did not decompose before we put it in the freezer. It was a spiritual experience. We thought of embalming it, but somebody told us that his chances of revival were less if we did it," Swami Vishalanand said."He has assured us that he will come back," another devotee, Lakhwinder Singh, told the Indian Express newspaper.The decision to place the body in the freezer was challenged in court by a man, claiming to be a former driver of the guru, who alleged that his devotees were not releasing the body because they wanted a share of the guru's properties."The court rejected his pleas after the Punjab government said that the man is clinically dead and that it is up to his followers to decide what they want to do with the body," Punjab legal official Reeta Kohli told the AFP news agency.Senior police official Gurinder Singh Dhillon said police "cannot interfere" now that the court had made its ruling.The website of the Divya Jyoti Jagrati Sansthan says it was established in 1983 and aims to "achieve world peace". It claims to have 350 branches in 15 countries.In 1993, the devotees of a Calcutta-based guru Balak Brahmachari refused to cremate his body for nearly two months, insisting that he would recover from a "meditative trance".Eventually, some 450 policemen entered his religious centre on the outskirts of the city and took away his decomposing body for cremation in the face of fierce protests by the devotees.

У листі до організації провідні фахівці у галузі штучного інтелекту, зокрема мільярдер Ілон Маск та один із засновників компанії DeepMind Мустафа Сулейман, попередили про можливу "третю революцію возброєнні"."Летальна автономна" технологія - це "скринька Пандори", і час тут має велике значення.116 експертів закликають ООН заборонити використання штучного інтелекту для керування зброєю."Коли таку технологію розроблять, збройні конфлікти можуть розвернутися у такому масштабі, якого (людство) ще не бачило, і з часом розвиватимуться швидше, ніж це зможе усвідомити людина", - йдеться в листі."Це може бути зброя терору, зброя, яку деспоти й терористи використовуватимуть проти ні в чому неповинних людей, і зброя, систему якої можна заламати, щоби використати у небажаних цілях", - пояснюється в тексті звернення.Лист від експертів із технологій написаний стривоженим тоном і попереджає, що "в нас немає часу думати довго"."Коли скриньку Пандори відкрити, закрити її буде дуже важко".Експерти називають технологію автономної зброї "морально неправильною" і закликають занести її у список зброї, забороненої ООН.Зустріч групи ООН щодо автономного озброєння була запланована на понеділок, але її відклали до листопада.Раніше у комітетах ООН обговорювали можливу заборону на технологію "роботів-вбивць".У 2015 більше від тисячі експертів, науковців та дослідників, зокрема Стівен Гокінг, Ілон Маск та співзасновник Apple Стів Возняк, опублікували лист, в якому попереджали про небезпеку застосування автономної зброї.Робот-вбивця - це повністю автоматизовна зброя, яка може обирати й уражати цілі без втручання людини.

Раніше у комітетах ООН обговорювали можливу заборону на технологію "роботів-вбивць". Робот-вбивця - це повністю автоматизовна зброя, яка може обирати й уражати цілі без втручання людини. Прибічники роботів-вбивць упевнені, що чинних законів, які регулюють військові дії, цілком достатньо, аби вирішити будь-які проблеми, пов'язані із застосуванням технології.

"Летальна автономна" технологія - це "скринька Пандори", і час тут має велике значення.116 експертів закликають ООН заборонити використання штучного інтелекту для керування зброєю. Експерти називають технологію автономної зброї "морально неправильною" і закликають занести її у список зброї, забороненої ООН.Зустріч групи ООН щодо автономного озброєння була запланована на понеділок, але її відклали до листопада.

Минобороны России обвинило Украину в похищении российских военных в Крыму

"Двадцатого ноября около 13.00 мск сотрудниками службы безопасности Украины были незаконно задержаны и вывезены из Крыма на территорию Николаевской области (Украина) российские военнослужащие: прапорщик Одинцов Максим Евгеньевич и младший сержант контрактной службы Баранов Александр Вячеславович", - сообщает минобороны. Российское ведомство обвиняет украинские спецслужбы в попытках сфабриковать уголовное дело против Баранова и Одинцова за совершенные против Украины преступления. Минобороны также сообщило о возможном психологическом и физическом давлении на российских военных "для получения "нужных" признательных показаний"."Считаем данные действия украинских спецслужб в отношении российских граждан очередной грубой провокацией и требуем их немедленного возвращения на территорию Российской Федерации", - заявило российское ведомство.Украина пока никак не комментирует заявление минобороны России.

மோதியின் இஸ்ரேல் சுற்றுப்பயணம்: இந்திய நிலைப்பாட்டில் ஒரு திருப்புமுனையா?

இந்தியாவும், யூத நாடும், நூற்றுக்கணக்கான ஆண்டுகள் ஒன்றுபட்டு ஆழமான தொடர்பைக் கொண்டிருப்பதாக பிரதமர் மோதி சமீபத்தில் குறிப்பிட்டார். இந் நிலையில், இரு நாடுகளும் ராணுவம் மற்றும் இணையப் பாதுகாப்பு தொடர்பான ஒப்பந்தங்களைச் செய்து கொள்ளும் என்று எதிர்பார்க்கப்படுகிறது.அதே நேரத்தில், பிரதமர் மோதி, ரமல்லாவுக்குச் செல்ல மாட்டார் என்றும், வழக்கமான நடைமுறைகளைப் போல, பாலத்தீன தலைவர்களை சந்திக்கும் திட்டம் இல்லை என்றும் பார்வையாளர்கள் சுட்டிக்காட்டுகின்றனர்.இந்தப் பயணம், இஸ்ரேல் தொடர்பான இந்திய நிலைப்பாட்டில் ஒரு திருப்புமுனை என்று பார்க்கப்படுகிறது.தீவிரவாதத் தடுப்பு நடவடிக்கைகளில் இரு நாடுகளும் பல ஆண்டுகளாக ஒருங்கிணைந்து செயல்படுகின்றன. இஸ்ரேலிடம் இருந்து தொடர்ந்து ஆயுதங்கள் வாங்கி வருகிறது இந்தியா.சீனா, பாகிஸ்தான் அச்சுறுத்தல்களை ஈடுகட்டும் வகையில், ராணுவத் திறனை மேம்படுத்த இந்தியா பல நடவடிக்கைகளை எடுத்து வருகிறது. அதன்படி, இஸ்ரேலிடம் இருந்து ஆண்டுக்கு ஒரு பில்லியன் டாலர் மதிப்புள்ள நவீன ஆயுதங்களை இந்தியா வாங்குகிறது என ராய்டர்ஸ் செய்தி நிறுவனம் கூறுகிறது.கூட்டு வான் பாதுகாப்பு முறையை ஏற்படுத்துதல், ட்ரோன், ரேடார், இணை பாதுகாப்பு மற்றம் தகவல் தொடர்பு சாதனங்களை இந்தியா வாங்குதல் உள்ளிட்டவை அதில் அடங்கும். பாதுகாப்பு ரீதியான ஒத்துழைப்பு தவிர, விவசாயம் மற்றும் உணவுப் பாதுகாப்பிலும் இந்தியாவுக்கு இஸ்ரேல் உதவும் எனத் தெரிகிறது.இரு நாடுகளுக்கிடையே, கடந்த 25 ஆண்டுகளாக ராஜீய உறவுகள் தொடர்கின்றன. ஆனால், இந்தியாவின் கணிசமான முஸ்லிம் மக்கள் தொகையைக் கருத்தில் கொண்டும், இரான் மற்றும் அரபு நாடுகளில் இருந்து எண்ணெய் இறக்குமதியை நம்பியிருப்பதாலும், கடந்த காலங்களில் இஸ்ரேல் மற்றும் பாலத்தீனத்துடன் இந்தியா ஒரு சரிசமமான உறவுப் பாலத்தையே பராமரித்து வந்தது.இஸ்ரேல் பிரதமர் பெஞ்சமின் நெதன்யாஹு, மோதியின் வருகையை வரலாற்றுப்பூர்வமானது என வர்ணித்துள்ளார்.பாதுகாப்பு, விவசாயம், நீர், எரிசக்தி உள்பட பல துறைகளில் ஒத்துழைப்பு இருக்கும் என்று கூறியுள்ளார்.கடந்த 2008-ஆம் ஆண்டு மும்பையில் யூத மையத்தின் மீது நடந்த தீவிரவாதத் தாக்குதலில் பெற்றோரை இழந்த சிறுவனை மோதி சந்திப்பார் என்று எதிர்பார்க்கப்படுகிறது.மோஷே ஹோல்ட்ஸ்பெர்க் என்ற அந்தச் சிறுவனை, இந்திய செவிலித் தாய் சான்டா சாமுவேல் காப்பாற்றினார். அவரை இஸ்ரேல் நாடு பாராட்டி கெளரவித்தது. அதற்குப் பிறகு, அந்தச் சிறுவனுடன் அவரும் இஸ்ரேலிலேயே குடியேறிவிட்டார்.கடந்த 2008-ஆம் ஆண்டு தீவிரவாதத் தாக்குதலில் தாஜ் ஹோட்டல் உள்பட பல இடங்கள் தாக்குதலுக்கு இலக்காயின. யூத மையத்தில் நடந்த தாக்குதலில் 6 யூதர்கள் கொல்லப்பட்டனர்.மோதிக்கு, உயரிய மரியாதையாகக் கருதப்படும் சிவப்புக் கம்பள வரவேற்பு அளிக்க இஸ்ரேல் முடிவு செய்துள்ளது. வழக்கமான நடைமுறையைப் போல, முக்கிய சந்திப்புக்களில் மட்டும் நெதன்யாஹு கலந்துகொள்ளாமல், ஏறத்தாழ மோதி செல்லும் எல்லா நிகழ்வுகளிலும் கலந்துகொள்கிறார். அமெரிக்க அதிபர் போல, மிக முக்கியத் தலைவர்களுக்கு மட்டுமே இஸ்ரேல் இத்தகைய கெளரவத்தை அளிப்பது வழக்கம்.இஸ்ரேல் அருங்காட்சியகம் மற்றும் விவசாய திட்டம் தொடர்பான இடங்களை இருவரும் இணைந்து பார்வையிடுகின்றனர். இந்தியாவைப் பூர்விகமாகக் கொண்ட, இஸ்ரேலில் வாழும் யூத மக்களுக்காக மோதி பங்கேற்கும் நிகழ்வில் நெதன்யாஹுவும் கலந்துகொள்கிறார்.இஸ்ரேல் உருவான காலத்தில் தொலைந்துபோன குழந்தைகளின் சோகக்கதை: பிபிசி தமிழ் முகநூல்ஃபேஸ்புக்கில் படித்து கருத்துகள் தெரிவிக்க : பிபிசி தமிழ் ட்விட்டர்டிவிட்டரில் பிபிசி தமிழை பின்தொடர : பிபிசி தமிழ் இன்ஸ்டாகிராம்இன்ஸ்டாகிராமில் விருப்பம் தெரிவிக்க : பிபிசி தமிழ் யு டியூப்யு டியூப் பக்கத்தில் காணொளிகளை காண :

“八百壮士”激烈抗争 台湾军人年改为何起争议？

台湾立法院周三（4月25日）举行军人年金改革法案公听会，反对军人年改的退伍军人团体“八百壮士”在公听会上炮火猛烈批评政府违背照顾军人承诺，整场公听会变成反对军人年改的情绪宣泄大会。会场外，反对军人年改的“八百壮士”及其支持者包围立法院大门外，推挤路障试图突破警方防线冲入大门。台北市警察局表示，混乱中有30名员警受伤送医，11名媒体记者遭推挤受伤，32人违法翻入立法院遭警方管束。台湾立法院周三（4月25日）举行军人年金改革法案公听会，反对军人年改的退伍军人团体“八百壮士”在公听会上炮火猛烈批评政府违背照顾军人承诺，整场公听会变成反对军人年改的情绪宣泄大会。会场外，反对军人年改的“八百壮士”及其支持者包围立法院大门外，推挤路障试图突破警方防线冲入大门。台北市警察局表示，混乱中有30名员警受伤送医，11名媒体记者遭推挤受伤，32人违法翻入立法院遭警方管束。摆脱激情的抗议和火爆的肢体冲突，台湾行政院推出的《海陆空军军官士官服役条例修正草案》（俗称军人年改案、军改案）究竟为何会引起争议？争议的焦点又在哪里？要说军人年改法案，就必须要说军人退抚基金，军人退抚基金就是职业军人的退休金，由军人个人缴纳35%，政府提供65%共同支付，职业军人退伍后就可以拿到退休年金。但是台湾近年来实施军队组织精简，军人退抚基金出现入不敷出的情况，精算报告更指出，如不实施改革，退抚基金将在2020年用完。摆脱激情的抗议和火爆的肢体冲突，台湾行政院推出的《海陆空军军官士官服役条例修正草案》（俗称军人年改案、军改案）究竟为何会引起争议？争议的焦点又在哪里？要说军人年改法案，就必须要说军人退抚基金，军人退抚基金就是职业军人的退休金，由军人个人缴纳35%，政府提供65%共同支付，职业军人退伍后就可以拿到退休年金。但是台湾近年来实施军队组织精简，军人退抚基金出现入不敷出的情况，精算报告更指出，如不实施改革，退抚基金将在2020年用完。根据军人年改新制度，军人退休金计算基准由原来的“最后在职本俸”计算改为“最后36个月的平均本俸”计算，但已经退役者仍维持原制度。另外，新制度调高了军人年金最低保障金额（俗称楼地板），原本规划军人与公教人员的最低保障金额相同，但考虑到军人性质与公教人员不同，因此调高军人年金的最低保障金额为新台币38990元。在退休所得替代率方面，服役满20年，起支俸率为55%，每服役多一年增加2%，最高年资上限军官以35年为限，士官以40年为限。根据军人年改新制度，军人退休金计算基准由原来的“最后在职本俸”计算改为“最后36个月的平均本俸”计算，但已经退役者仍维持原制度。另外，新制度调高了军人年金最低保障金额（俗称楼地板），原本规划军人与公教人员的最低保障金额相同，但考虑到军人性质与公教人员不同，因此调高军人年金的最低保障金额为新台币38990元。在退休所得替代率方面，服役满20年，起支俸率为55%，每服役多一年增加2%，最高年资上限军官以35年为限，士官以40年为限。根据台湾国防部提供的军人年改财务影响评估报告，新制度改革后，有超过一半的退伍军士官的退休金将受到影响。评估报告说，退休金减少额度在新台币10000元以下者约占20%，减少额度介于10000至20000元者占整体约29%。退休金减少额度超过新台币20000元者占整体约2%，其中以将级军官为主，显示退役时官阶较高的高级军官退休金被砍最多。根据台湾国防部提供的军人年改财务影响评估报告，新制度改革后，有超过一半的退伍军士官的退休金将受到影响。评估报告说，退休金减少额度在新台币10000元以下者约占20%，减少额度介于10000至20000元者占整体约29%。退休金减少额度超过新台币20000元者占整体约2%，其中以将级军官为主，显示退役时官阶较高的高级军官退休金被砍最多。和此前反对公教人员退休制度改革的示威抗议一样，反对军人年改的抗议活动在台湾并没有受到主流社会的支持。公教人员退休新制将在今年7月1日实施，民进党政府希望军人年改也能同时实施，民进党立法院党团力图尽快将法案排入审查，但遭到国民党全力抵制。台湾一般民众对退伍军人都肯定他们对国家的贡献，并认为政府应该妥善照顾退休军人，但对那些权高位重的既得利益者退休金被砍则不表同情。和此前反对公教人员退休制度改革的示威抗议一样，反对军人年改的抗议活动在台湾并没有受到主流社会的支持。公教人员退休新制将在今年7月1日实施，民进党政府希望军人年改也能同时实施，民进党立法院党团力图尽快将法案排入审查，但遭到国民党全力抵制。台湾一般民众对退伍军人都肯定他们对国家的贡献，并认为政府应该妥善照顾退休军人，但对那些权高位重的既得利益者退休金被砍则不表同情。

台湾选举：绿党首推大麻医疗合法化引发论辩

媒体绿党表示，若在立院拿到席次，将推动医疗用大麻合法化。该政见在台湾网络引起广泛讨论。但台湾法律仍视大麻为二级毒品，与安非他命同等级，不管运输或贩卖大麻都会被严厉处罚。另一方面，大麻合法化议题，在台湾不再是禁忌，已经在政府公共政策上、 绿党在11月21日接受媒体采访时称，未来若在立法院赢得席次，会向台湾医疗主管单位即卫生福利部提案，要求重新评估药用大麻萃取物贩卖以及合法进口政策的可能性。除了倡议药用大麻合法化之外，绿党也表示支持未来检讨娱乐用大麻目前的分级，如果娱乐性大麻在台湾合法化，那将会是亚洲第一。代表绿党提出此案的台湾立委提名人李菁琪律师告诉BBC中文说，会支持此案是因为她看到许多病患的需求，尤其是重度忧郁症或癫痫患者的医疗需求。她说，大麻在医疗上对于许多患者有所帮助，尤其全球许多国家已经使用大麻协助疗程多年，所以就“医疗人权”来说，药用大麻合法化对她来说合情合理。“而且，台湾法律上规范更为严格的的一级毒品吗啡，在医疗上都能合法使用，为什么大麻却不行？”李菁琪补充说。今年4月20日，台北大约有三百人在台湾立法院外陈情，开启了台湾首次大麻合法化的街头陈情运动。在场民众要求把大麻当作药物而不是当作毒品来管制。当时，发起团体“绿色浪潮”当时告诉《美国之音》称，“我们认为大麻其实可以跟药物的管制结合在一起。特别把它拉出来作为毒品，对于解决问题没有帮助。我们希望大麻可以合法化，首先是从医疗的方面开始。”目前医疗用大麻合法化的亚洲国家是泰国及韩国，两国在今年年陆续通过法案。泰国甚至允许让民众登记后种植少量大麻贩卖给药房。但是，政府反对大麻合法化的声浪仍高。官方代表认为大麻会有上瘾的问题，不能贸然开放。根据台湾《毒品危害防制条例》，在台湾被查获施用二级毒品（譬如大麻），初犯者须接受强制性的观察勒戒治疗至少一个月，或者是“戒瘾治疗”的缓起诉处分，需要每个月去指定的医院进行治疗至少一年，才能免除被起诉的法律责任。台湾法律也规定，如果初犯后在5年内，因为吸食二级毒品再犯被逮捕，就会被起诉或判刑。根据台北喆律法律事务所的数据显示，2017年台湾法务部共有4万3千笔毒品判决，其中851件都与大麻有关，也就是台湾当年每天有超过两人因为施用、转让或贩卖大麻而入狱。根据该律师楼统计，涉及大麻的毒品案件，有罪率将近是96%。李菁琪告诉BBC中文说，今年起每个月她就经手约七到八件与大麻有关的案子，其中有些案例是民众从国外带回台湾的大麻烟斗作为纪念品，甚至乐器里头，被台湾检方运用溶剂检验出大麻残留物质，民众因此差一点触法，由此可见台湾法律对大麻管制甚严。台湾中央警察大学教授廖有禄告诉《美国之音》说，大麻在台湾使用的问题在近几年变得更加严峻，但执法单位及官员已开始讨论有关大麻的法律; 他认为大麻已经成为台湾“中产阶级”开始使用的药物，导致现在关于大麻的法律案件增多，不过台湾官方仍认为大麻应当被管制。李菁琪则说，寻求对自己最好的医疗疗程，对她来说就是基本医疗人权，政府应该尊重民众的选择，而不是还没有开放讨论下就直接禁绝大麻在医疗上的用途。在中国、马来西亚等亚洲其它大多数国家，大麻仍被视为毒品。东方文化对毒品的严厉的社会态度，影响着各国政府有关政策制定。作为海外的华人群体，也受到类似的文化影响。加拿大多伦多A1中文电台新闻及公共事务总监杨婉文曾对BBC中文的《华人谈天下》节目说，加拿大当地不少华人对休闲大麻合法化显得忧心忡忡，特别担心此举对年青人的不良影响。不过，台湾绿党此次倡议大麻合法化显示在主流政党夹击下生存的小党，在台湾选战中以新鲜或“自由派”政见吸引年轻族群以及自由派的政见作为选战策略。2018年世界杯足球赛成为有史以来首届允许合法使用大麻油等大麻类药品的世界杯。加拿大参议院今年批准通过娱乐大麻合法化法案。曾担任英国外交大臣的前保守党领袖黑格勋爵呼吁英国政府将娱乐性大麻合法化，但目前的保守党政府表态称，不会在本届政府内改变将大麻定性为B类毒品、严禁持有的政策，但会重新考虑大麻类药品的有关规定。伦敦希思罗机场曾没收一名儿童考德威尔（Billy Caldwell）的父母携带入境的大麻油，这名儿童最后需要入院治疗，事件因此在英国引起关注。一个月后，英国政府向一名患有一种罕有的癫痫症的儿童丁利（Alfie Dingley）发出特别许可，容许他使用大麻油作医疗用途。这些都反映出西方社会对大麻作为娱乐药物长期争议的一个新发展。

हॉन्ग कॉन्ग में 47 लोकतंत्र समर्थकों के ख़िलाफ़ सुरक्षा क़ानून के तहत केस दर्ज

हॉन्गकॉन्ग में पुलिस ने रविवार को 47 लोकतंत्र समर्थक कार्यकर्ताओं और विपक्षी नेताओं पर सरकार के ख़िलाफ़ साजिश रचने का अभियोग लगाया गया है.इन कार्यकर्ताओं के ख़िलाफ़ चीन द्वारा पिछले साल पारित किए गए राष्ट्रीय सुरक्षा क़ानून के तहत मामला दर्ज किया गया है. इन लोगों ने चुनाव से पहले अनाधिकृत रूप से प्राथमिक वोटों को इकट्ठा करने की कोशिश की ताकि विपक्षी उम्मीदवारों को चुना जा सके. इन चुनावों को अब टाल दिया गया है. अधिकारियों ने कहा है कि अभियुक्तों ने सरकार को पंगु बनाने की कोशिश की. 'देश के लिए जंग जारी रखें' अभियोग तय किए जाने से पहले पुलिस स्टेशन के बाहर लीस्टर शम ने हॉन्ग कॉन्ग के लोगों से कहा कि वे अपने देश के लिए जंग को जारी रखे. समाप्त लीस्टर शम कहते हैं, “यह चाहे कितना भी मुश्किल क्यों न हो, लेकिन मैं हॉन्गकॉन्ग के सभी लोगों से कहूंगा कि आप जहां भी हैं, भरोसा रखिए और उम्मीद बनाए रखिए और अपने संघर्ष को जारी रखिए.” वहीं, एक अन्य कार्यकर्ता जिमी शैम ने कहा कि उनकी गिरफ़्तारी से लोकतंत्र के लिए जारी आंदोलन ख़त्म नहीं होगा. उन्होंने कहा, “हम हॉन्गकॉन्ग के लोग हॉन्गकॉन्ग की मशाल हैं. सरकार हमारे अधिकार छीन सकती है, लेकिन दुनिया भर के लोग इसे देख रहे हैं. हर कोई जान जाएगा कि हॉन्गकॉन्ग के लोग इस मुश्किल वक़्त में भी मजबूती से खड़े हैं और अभी भी अपनी पांच माँगों पर जोर दे रहे हैं.” लोकतंत्र समर्थक कार्यकर्ता बेनी ताई यू-तिंग ने मीडिया से कहा है कि वो हॉन्ग कॉन्ग पुलिस स्टेशन जाने वाले हैं विवादित क़ानून के तहत अब तक की सबसे बड़ी कार्रवाई यह चीन द्वारा लागू किए गए राष्ट्रीय सुरक्षा क़ानून के तहत की गई अब तक की सबसे बड़ी कार्रवाई है. 50 से ज्यादा अन्य डेमोक्रेट्स को 6 जनवरी को गिरफ़्तार किया गया था. पिछले साल जून में राष्ट्रीय सुरक्षा ऑपरेशन के तहत ये कार्रवाई की गई थी. इन लोगों को बाद में जमानत पर रिहा कर दिया गया था. इन लोगों पर पिछले साल जुलाई में अनाधिकृत रूप से प्राथमिक चुनाव आयोजित करने और इनमें हिस्सा लेने का अभियोग लगाया गया था. अभियोग ये था कि ये लोग इन चुनावों के ज़रिए विधान परिषद के चुनाव के लिए सबसे मजबूत उम्मीदवार चुनना चाहते थे. बेनी ताई पर चीनी अधिकारियों ने हॉन्गकॉन्ग में लोकतंत्र समर्थक आंदोलन के मुख्य रणनीतिकार होने का आरोप लगाया है. उनके समेत गिरफ़्तार हुए लोगों में से ज़्यादातर को अधिकारियों ने पुलिस स्टेशनों पर पहुंचने के लिए कहा था. हॉन्गकॉन्ग पुलिस ने एक बयान में कहा है कि इन लोगों को सोमवार को अदालत में पेश किया जाएगा. इस मामले में इन लोगों को उम्र क़ैद तक की सज़ा दी जा सकती है जिसमें जमानत की संभावना नहीं हैं. इस क़ानून के तहत अब तक 100 लोगों को गिरफ़्तार किया गया है जिसमें मशहूर चीन आलोचक और मीडिया टायकून जिमि लाइ भी शामिल हैं जिनकी जमानत अर्जी अस्वीकार कर दी गई थी. वह हिरासत में अपने मामले की सुनवाई शुरू होने का इंतज़ार कर रहे हैं. अब तक सुनवाई शुरु नहीं हुई हैं. और सबसे पहले तोंग यिंग-किट के मामले में सुनवाई होगी जिन पर पिछले साल पुलिस अधिकारियों से मोटर साइकिल लड़ाने का अभियोग है. क्या है विवादित क़ानून? हॉन्गकॉन्ग में कुछ समय पहले पारित किए गए इस क़ानून पर विवाद जारी है. इस क़ानून में इन सभी बातों को अपराध की श्रेणी में रखा गया है - इस क़ानून को दुनिया के तमाम देशों की ओर से निंदा का सामना करना पड़ा है.

上周末（12月13及14日）网红鍾明轩、“波特王”先后发布与蔡英文的合作影片，却因内容涉及政治议题，“波特王”遭中国合作厂商解约，在台湾社会及网路上引起轩然大波。蔡英文与网红“波特王”合作的影片中，“波特王”以其擅长的搭讪话术与蔡英文互动，像是蔡英文问及“高雄人嘛，你不跟海在一起，你跟什么在一起呢？”，“波特王”就回复称，“跟你在一起”。约10分钟长的影片发布后，两天内在脸书及YouTube两个平台，两天内已累积近400万观看人次。但就在影片发布后，“波特王”大陆合作方Papi酱公司“Papitube”认定其内涉及敏感议题要求删除，并表示“总统”两字不能出现。“波特王”和团队拒绝下架影片，称不能接受，并表示：“如果要我们不能称呼自己国家的元首为‘总统’，这笔钱我们不赚也罢。”随后“Papitube”也发布声明表示两者已停止合作，并对“一个中国”原则、国家主权表达支持。该事件在台湾引发轩然大波，台湾总统蔡英文以及国民党总统候选人韩国瑜皆对该事件做出回应。蔡英文12月16日对媒体表示，这件事的发生对台湾社会是一个很难以接受的事情。她强调，“我们是个自由民主的社会，如果连台湾总统在影片上都不能撩一下的话，对于我们民自以及大家所珍惜的价值有很大的违背和违反。”韩国瑜也声援“波特王”，他认为两岸之间的互动，大家和平交流、交往，“政治归政治，经济归经济”。并称，“如果‘波特王’因为采访蔡总统，而使经济受到损失，他要呼吁大陆厂商千万不要这样做”。台湾政治评论家温朗东对该事件发表评论指出，该影片并未放在微博，而是放在大陆人看不到的社交媒体“脸书”（Facebook）上，但事实是“在台湾的土地上拍影片，叫蔡英文总统，你在中国的资产就可能被没收”。“波特王”以“撩妹”打开知名度，在新浪微博拥有百万粉丝，在脸书则有88万粉丝。而他所合作的大陆业者则是“徐州自由自在网路科技公司（Papitube）”。根据中央社报导，其背后老板就是中国的第一网红姜逸磊（Papi酱）。过去几个月，蔡英文的竞选策略之一就是与网红互动，像是之前曾邀请网红“阿滴”上总统专机合拍影片，也曾参与讽刺类评论网路节目“博恩夜夜秀”，通过与受年轻人欢迎的网红互动，摆脱严肃形象要与年轻人拉近距离。上周末，两名年轻网红鍾明轩、“波特王”先后发布影片。今年20岁的网红、作家鍾明轩在蔡英文官邸中拍摄影片，从两人互动中展现出蔡英文较私人的一面。像是鍾明轩问蔡英文上次哭是什么时候，蔡英文回答称，“上次哭的时候是我妈妈过世的时候，是在去年”。鍾明轩也希望蔡英文未来若提及中国政府不好时，讲“中共”，而不是整个中国。他解释，“他们的人民，很多人其实也不喜欢他们的政府。可是如果你今天说，是中共怎么样，他们会觉得，你讲的是中共并不是整个中国。”蔡英文也当场承诺会修正。10月时，鍾明轩在台北接受BBC中文专访，他表示自己没有政治立场，并不是谁的支持者，认为韩国瑜和蔡英文都有缺点，并不会偏袒哪一个，会以政策去投票，他希望因此影响身边的人。鍾明轩向BBC中文坦承，最近有因为政治因素而影响工作。他说：“我跟别人有合作，虽然已经完成合作，但他们的公司因为我的政治立场，导致影片下架。”但是，他并不在意，他说“若他们不懂欣赏，我也了解”。鍾明轩认为现在的社会是“所谓的自由就是被别人讨厌”，他并说“在中国不管怎样都会被冠上政治”。但他认为，艺术与政治不应挂钩，并解释“不应该因为不喜欢某人，就不喜欢他的艺术作品，两者可以分开”。当时的谈话意外地呼应了现在“波特王”所遇到的状况。鍾明轩表示，自己是台湾人，未来也是既得利益者，因此现在希望能做点改变。他认为，年轻人应该要为较为进步的观念而站出来。他说：“老年人在社会上是受惠者，年轻时已经努力了，现在则是年轻人的时代，老年人就应该学会闭嘴！”鍾明轩曾因阴柔特质遭受霸凌，13岁时因为翻唱《煎熬》而爆红，后来在台湾以推崇“做自己”闻名，并自称“国际美人”，深受年轻人的喜爱。在与蔡英文合作的影片中，鍾明轩也谈及台湾人对民主的了解，蔡表示香港“反送中”事件才让人们意识到民主“好像不是理所当然的事情”。影片最后，鍾明轩也邀请蔡英文共同比出“3”和“Good”的手势，虽然并未明说，但支持选举号次抽到“3号”的蔡英文，意味十分浓厚。学者表示，网络声量决定政治人物的支持度，但政绩和政见才是决定赢得选举的关键。台湾文化大学广告学系专任教授兼系主任钮则勋曾向BBC分析，蔡英文所属的民进党在去年地方选举大败，因此希望调整竞选策略，希望在网络社群中拉高声量，支持度才会提高，像是台北市长柯文哲和高雄市长韩国瑜都是在网络上成功拉抬声量，而成功当选。他认为，蔡英文今年一月强硬回应习近平“两制”台湾方案提议，网络声量拉高，因此希望延续这股能量，提高支持度。钮则勋分析，明年的总统大选与上一届差太多，网络行销模式更多元。钮则勋说：“加上近三年网红增加，网红与政治人物合体，对选情会有一定影响。”据台湾媒体报导及统计，台湾20至45岁的青壮世代已经占台湾总公民人数的45.9％，若40岁以下的人口，则占投票人口超过三分之一（36.38％）。钮则勋近一步解释，网红和政治人物会相互拉抬，交换粉丝，互相拉拢对方的粉丝，各自有盘算，“蔡英文吸引网红的粉丝，网红也能吸纳蔡英文的支持者，各自交换。”另外，他表示，网红也比较能脱离政治立场，想要蓝绿都通吃，才可以增加粉丝数量。

اللاجئون الأفارقة: اليمن خلفهم والحدود السعودية الملتهبة أمامهم

يفر آلاف الأفارقة من شرق القارة السمراء كل عامٍ هرباً من شظف العيش في بلدانهم المضطربة ، ليركبوا أمواج البحر العاتية في خليج عدن، أملاً في الوصول إلى بر الأمان المأمول في الشواطئ اليمنية.صورة من داخل مركز احتجاز اللاجئين في العاصمة اليمنية صنعاء التي تخضع لسيطرة حركة أنصار الله الحوثية بعضهم يحالفه الحظ بالنجاة، أما البقية فعادة ما تتقطع بهم السبل على اليابسة أو يموتون في عرض البحر بفعل مكائد القراصنة وألاعيب تجار البشر. من تطأ أقدامهم التراب اليمني سرعان ما يشرعون في رحلة أخرى محفوفة بمخاطر من نوع آخر، وذلك حتى يستقر بهم المقام في أي مدينة او بلدة يمنية، ثم لا يلبثون أن يجمعوا ما تيسر لديهم من المال لقاء قيامهم ببعض الأعمال البسيطة بأجور زهيدة للغاية. قبل أحداث العام 2011 كان اليمن يستضيف أكثر من مليون لاجئ إفريقي معظمهم من الصوماليين يليهم الإثيوبيون فالإريتريون وغيرهم ، إذ كانت غالبيتهم تقيم وتعمل في مدن شتى بينما يعيش بعضهم في مخيمات للاجئين تحت إشراف الأمم المتحدة. دوام الحال من المحال أحد أفراد الأمن اليمنيين يوزع الماء على مجموعة من المهاجرين الأفارقة في مدينة عدن لكن الظروف تغيرت بعد ذلك بسبب تفاقم الأزمة السياسية والاقتصادية، وزاد من تدهور أحوال المهاجرين واللاجئين الأفارقة وقلة حيلتهم في اليمن أن اندلاع الحرب قبل ستة أعوام جرى بتدخل عسكري سعودي واسع النطاق، وبالتالي فلم يعد اليمن مكاناً آمناً لهؤلاء ولا الحدودالسعودية قابلة للتسلل منها إلى مدنها القريبة بالسهولة نفسها التي كانت عليها. مواضيع قد تهمك نهاية حريق مركز الاحتجاز يوم الأحد الماضي، قتل في أحد مراكز حجز المهاجرين التي تديرها حركة أنصار الله الحوثية في صنعاء عدد من اللاجئين والنازحين حرقاً، غالبيتهم من المهاجرين الاثيوبيين. معظم القتلى والجرحى كانوا من بين قرابة 900 شخص محتجز وفقاً لما ذكرته المنظمة الدولية للهجرة ومصادر يمنية وإثيوبية متطابقة. إتهامات خطيرة للحوثيين مصادر إثيوبية في أوروبا والولايات المتحدة، كانت على إتصالات ببعض أولئك اللاجئين المحتجزين، اتهمت سلطات الحوثيين بفرض مبالغ مالية على هؤلاء مقابل ترحيلهم مما اضطرهم إلى الإضراب عن الطعام والاشتباك لاحقاً مع حراسهم. مهاجرون أفارقة يحاولون الحصول على بعض المساعدات الغذائية يقول جمدا سوتي، رئيس شبكة مستقبل أوروميا للأخبار ومقرها كندا، في تصريحات لبي بي سي إن "السلطات الحوثية أودعت المهاجرين الذين يحملون بعضهم إقامات شرعية والبعض الآخر شهادات اعتراف بهم كلاجئين السجون دون أي مبرر قانوني". وأضاف سوتي أن لديه شهادات موثقة بأن "الحوثيين يساومون اللاجئين كي ينضموا لقواتهم لمقاتلة القوات المتحالفة بقيادة السعودية". ويؤكد الإعلامي الإثيوبي سوتي بأن " هذا ما أغضب المحتجزين ودفعهم للإضراب عن الطعام". ويقول سوتي "دخل حراس المركز وطلبوا من المحتجزين وقف اضرابهم" ولكن يبدو أن الحراس وهم محاربون غير مدربين على حراسة مراكز الإحتجاز "قاموا بركل المحتجزين وضربهم، لكن المحتجزين تعاونوا وأخرجوا الحراس من المعتقل" وبعد ذلك استدعى الحراس قوات أخرى أتت وألقت على المحتجزين قنبلة حارقة ما أدى إلى وفاة 450 محتجزاً بالإضافة إلى مئات آخرين ممن إصاباتهم خطيرة". رواية الحوثيين لكن سلطات الأمن التابعة للحوثيين قالت إن "الحادث وقع جراء حريق في مركز لإيواء مهاجرين غير شرعيين ما تسبب في وفاة وإصابة عدد منهم وبعض العاملين في مصلحة الهجرة والجوازات". أنصار الحركة الحوثية في العاصمة صنعاء وحملت وزارة الداخلية التي يسيطر عليها الحوثيون في صنعاء "منظمة الهجرة الدولية والأمم المتحدة المسؤولية الكاملة عن هذا الحادث، لتقاعسهما عن القيام بدورهما في توفير الملاجئ المخصصة لتجميع وإيواء المهاجرين غير الشرعيين، وترحيلهم إلى بلدانهم وفق القوانين الدولية". الوزارة أكدت في بيان لها أن عدم الاستجابة لمطالبها "شكل عبئاً على وزارة الداخلية التي اضطرت - برغم شح الإمكانيات الناتج عن الحصار والعدوان- إلى توفير مركز إيواء مؤقت وهو مكتظ بالمهاجرين غير الشرعيين". احتجاجات الجاليات الإثيوبية عشرات اللاجئين من قومية الأوروميا الإثيوبية ذات الغالبية المسلمة تظاهروا امام مقر المفوضية العليا للأمم المتحدة للمطالبة بالكشف عن ملابسات سقوط العديد من أبناء جلدتهم. وفي الوقت نفسه، تداعى العشرات من أبناء الجاليات الإثيوبية في مدن غربية مختلفة لتدارس معاناة مواطنيهم في مركز الإحتجاز الذي تعرضوا فيه للموت حرقاً واختناقا، وقد تطوع البعض بالتبرع بمبالغ مالية لدعم عائلات الضحايا والمصابين. الموقف الحكومي الإثيوبي رئيس الوزراء الإثيوبي آبي أحمد قالت وزارة الخارجية في أديس أبابا إنها "تعمل على جمع معلومات كاملة عن حريق بمركز احتجاز في اليمن" وأضافت أنها " تحاول من خلال سفارتها في سلطنة عمان تحديد عدد المهاجرين الإثيوبيين الذين لقوا حتفهم وأصيبوا في الحادث المأساوي". أصداء عالمية المنظمة الدولية للهجرة تحدثت في بيان لها عن "عراقيل تعيق الوصول إلى الجرحى المصابين بسبب التدابير الأمنية المتزايدة للحوثيين في المستشفيات" وطالبت الحوثيين بالكشف عن ظروف الحادث. لماذا اليمن جسر عبور؟ يذكر أن آلاف اللاجئين الفارين من دول عدة في شرق إفريقيا اعتادوا على اتخاذ الأراضي اليمنية معبراً للوصول إلى الجارة الشمالية السعودية ودول خليجية أخرى، ساعد على ذلك قرب اليمن من بلدانهم التي لا يفصلها عنه سوى عشرات من الأميال البحرية على البحر الأحمر وخليج عدن. مهاجرون إثيوبيون يعبرون الأراضي اليمنية في طريقهم إلى السعودية أما السبب الآخر في اختيار اليمن ممراً إلى السعودية يعود إلى تسامح اليمنيين مع جيرانهم الأفارقة ثم إلى الأوضاع الأمنية الرخوة في هذه البلد. بين الجحيم والحدود الملتهبة وبحسب مراقبين فقد أفسح الحوثيون في مرات سابقة المجال أمام المهاجرين الأفارقة لتجاوز الحدود الشائكة بين اليمن والسعودية للتوجه نحو المملكة، لكن السلطات الأمنية السعودية كثيراً ما رفضت استقبالهم وقامت بإعادتهم على أعقابهم نحو الأراضي اليمنية. واتهمت منظمة هيومان رايتس واتش الحقوقية، ومقرها نيويورك، السلطات السعودية في أغسطس / آب الماضي بإساءة معاملة الأفارقة النازحين إليها من اليمن، ونشرت المنظمة صوراً لما قالت إن هؤلاء يعانونه داخل مراكز الاحتجاز السعودية من خلال وضعهم في أماكن احتجاز تفتقر إلى المياه النظيفة والصرف الصحي إلى جانب تعريضهم للجوع وسوء التغذية ومتاعب عديدة أخرى.

Clive Lewis joins Labour leadership race

In an article for the Guardian, he said he feared "necessary truths may go unspoken" if he didn't put himself forward. Shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry is also standing, and others are expected to join the contest.Mr Corbyn will stand down "early next year" after Labour's election defeat. Others who have said they are considering a pitch for the leadership include Sir Keir Starmer, Yvette Cooper and Lisa Nandy.Shadow business secretary Rebecca Long-Bailey, thought to be the favoured candidate of the current party leadership, has yet to say whether she will stand. It comes as Laura Parker, the most senior staff member in the Momentum group which backed Mr Corbyn's leadership bid, said she is stepping down. In an email to members, she said she would not be leaving the group but wanted to spend more time with her family. In the article announcing his candidacy, Mr Lewis praised Labour's outgoing leader for "inspiring a new generation of members". But he said "indecisiveness" on the issue of Brexit and "disconnected policies" were behind the party's poor election performance, its worst since 1935.He added that Labour was "never democratised on the scale" that members expected after Mr Corbyn won the leadership in 2015. The party, he wrote, needs an "army of activists" who have a "serious democratic stake in the movement". "I don't want to manage the labour movement, I want to unleash it," he added. He distanced himself from the Blair and Brown years, saying that the party often had "the legacy of the 2000s thrown back in our faces". An early supporter of Jeremy Corbyn, Mr Lewis became a shadow energy minister shortly after Mr Corbyn became party leader. He has been an MP since 2015, after taking the previously Liberal Democrat-held seat of Norwich South. He rejoined Labour's frontbench in January last year, having resigned in February 2017 in order to oppose the bill triggering the Brexit process.At the time, he said he could not in "all good conscience, vote for something I believe will ultimately harm the city I have the honour to represent".

Biden diz que invasão ao Congresso foi 'um dos dias mais sombrios da história dos EUA'

Na tentativa de impedir a ratificação da vitória do democrata pelo Congresso, uma multidão de apoiadores do presidente Donald Trump invadiu o Capitólio e protagonizou cenas de confusão e violência que levaram à morte de quatro pessoas. Em um pronunciamento na tarde desta quinta-feira (07/01) na cidade Delaware, ele afirmou que aquele foi "um dos dias mais sombrios da história dos EUA", "um ataque, literalmente, à cidadela da liberdade". "Não foi divergência, não foi desordem", afirmou. "Foi caos."Os americanos que invadiram o Capitólio, para Biden, não estavam lá para protestar — eram, como ele definiu, uma "multidão de arruaceiros" e "terroristas domésticos". "Gostaria de dizer que não imaginávamos que isso pudesse acontecer. Mas não é verdade. Sabíamos que poderia", declarou. "Nos quatro últimos anos tivemos um presidente que deixou claro seu desprezo por nossa democracia, nossa Constituição, nosso Estado de direito.""Ele lançou um amplo ataque às instituições da nossa democracia desde o início", acrescentou.O presidente eleito, que assume a Casa Branca no próximo dia 20 de janeiro, disse ainda acreditar que os manifestantes não foram tratados de maneira agressiva pela polícia em parte por serem brancos. "Se fosse um grupo [do movimento antirracista] Black Lives Matter, eles teriam sido tratados de maneira bem diferente dos que tomaram o Capitólio ontem."Opositores de Trump nas duas casas do Congresso pediram que ele fosse destituído do cargo após a violenta dessa quarta-feira. O senador democrata Chuck Schumer disse que Trump deveria ser removido do cargo imediatamente, antes mesmo do final de seu mandato, no dia 20 de janeiro. No entanto, a remoção precisaria do apoio dos republicanos.Já a presidente da Câmara, a democrata Nancy Pelosi, também defendeu a destituição de Trump da cadeira de presidente. "O Congresso deve se preparar para seguir adiante com um impeachment, que representa o sentimento esmagador do meu partido e do povo americano. Embora faltem apenas 13 dias [para Trump deixar o cargo], qualquer dia pode ser um show de terror", afirmou, em pronunciamento nesta quinta.

Google's parent company Alphabet sued over sexual misconduct policy

Separately two lawsuits have been filed by long-term shareholders which accuse Alphabet's board of being involved in attempts to cover up the claims.Both legal claims want Alphabet to do a better job of uncovering and responding to misconduct. Google declined to comment on the lawsuits or whether it will respond. The legal action is believed to have been prompted by the way that Google handled misconduct claims made against former Android boss Andy Rubin and former search head Amit Singhal.Both men are believed to have received large pay-offs after being investigated over the claims. Neither now works for Google.Both Mr Rubin and Mr Singhal have denied the allegations. The way Google handled the incidents prompted demonstrations by staff and led to thousands walking out of their offices in co-ordinated protests in November.In response, Google boss Sundar Pichai apologised for the way it had acted in the past over allegations of inappropriate behaviour and promised improvements. One lawsuit claims that Google operated a two-tier policy when handling reports of harassment or discrimination. Ordinary workers were typically fired and gained no benefits, but similar behaviour by high-level executives would be tolerated until managers were exposed, at which point they were paid off and allowed to resign, allege legal papers.The double standard meant Alphabet's board had not done its job properly and its actions had cost the company millions, said the lawsuit.Mr Pichai's statement to staff last October said: "Over the past two years, we have terminated 48 people, including 13 senior managers and above for sexual harassment. None of these people received an exit package. "And to clarify: in that time, we have also not provided any exit packages to executives who departed voluntarily in the course of a sexual harassment investigation."Frank Bottini, an attorney representing one shareholder, said the lawsuit wanted to prompt action at the highest level in Alphabet."We'd like to see ... meaningful change in the tone at the company, the policies, the treatment of women, the reporting of sexual harassment and other issues," he told Reuters.

Myanmar Rohingya militants Arsa vow to fight on after attack

Attacks by the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (Arsa) last year sparked military reprisals that drove about 650,000 Rohingya to flee to Bangladesh.It now says it was behind an ambush on a military truck in Rakhine state on Friday that injured three people.The group, seen as terrorists by Myanmar's government, say they are fighting for Rohingya political rights.Arsa operates in Rakhine state in northern Myanmar, where the Rohingya people have faced persecution. The Myanmar government has denied them citizenship and sees them as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.Clashes erupt periodically between ethnic groups, but in the past year, an armed Rohingya insurgency has grown.Arsa has carried out only sporadic attacks, but early on 25 August last year, it launched assaults on about 30 police and army posts, triggering a fierce military response.At the same time, the authorities accused Arsa fighters of killing 28 Hindu villagers whose bodies were allegedly found in a mass grave.Jonathan Head, the BBC's South East Asia correspondent, says that not all Rohingya support the group, and their strategy is poorly formed.At least 6,700 Rohingya were killed in the month after last August's violence, Médecins Sans Frontières says.After an internal investigation, in November the army exonerated itself of any blame regarding the crisis. It put the death toll at about 400.The military denied killing any civilians, burning their villages, raping women and girls, and stealing possessions.The government's assertions contradicted evidence seen by BBC correspondents. The United Nations human rights chief has said it seems like "a textbook example of ethnic cleansing".Bangladesh and Myanmar have been working on a plan to repatriate some of the 650,000 refugees, but it is unclear on what terms they could be allowed to return, and whether they would be resettled into camps.Myanmar's government said a military vehicle taking someone to hospital was targeted by about 20 "extremist Bengali terrorists" with home-made mines and arms.On Sunday, Arsa posted a statement by its leader Ata Ullah on Twitter, confirming its involvement and saying it has "no other option but to combat 'Burmese state-sponsored terrorism' against the Rohingya population for the purpose of defending, salvaging and protecting the Rohingya community".It also called on Rohingya people to be consulted over their "humanitarian needs and political future". Jonathan Head, BBC News South East Asia correspondent, BangkokThe military views Arsa as an Islamic terrorist movement, justifying its exceptionally harsh response to the August attacks.Arsa announced a ceasefire right after those attacks, and was assumed to have been seriously weakened by the exodus of most of the Rohingya population to Bangladesh. However, the bombing on Friday shows that some Rohingya militants have remained behind.The subsequent statement by Arsa, promising to continue what it calls its legitimate struggle against the Burmese state, suggests more attacks may follow.This is likely to harden the military's determination to keep international aid agencies and the media out of Rakhine state, making the already distant prospect of repatriating the refugees even more remote.

Attacks by the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (Arsa) last year sparked military reprisals that drove about 650,000 Rohingya to flee to Bangladesh.It now says it was behind an ambush on a military truck in Rakhine state on Friday that injured three people.The group, seen as terrorists by Myanmar's government, say they are fighting for Rohingya political rights.Arsa operates in Rakhine state in northern Myanmar, where the Rohingya people have faced persecution. The Myanmar government has denied them citizenship and sees them as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.Clashes erupt periodically between ethnic groups, but in the past year, an armed Rohingya insurgency has grown.Arsa has carried out only sporadic attacks, but early on 25 August last year, it launched assaults on about 30 police and army posts, triggering a fierce military response.At the same time, the authorities accused Arsa fighters of killing 28 Hindu villagers whose bodies were allegedly found in a mass grave.Jonathan Head, the BBC's South East Asia correspondent, says that not all Rohingya support the group, and their strategy is poorly formed.At least 6,700 Rohingya were killed in the month after last August's violence, Médecins Sans Frontières says.After an internal investigation, in November the army exonerated itself of any blame regarding the crisis. It put the death toll at about 400.The military denied killing any civilians, burning their villages, raping women and girls, and stealing possessions.The government's assertions contradicted evidence seen by BBC correspondents. The United Nations human rights chief has said it seems like "a textbook example of ethnic cleansing".Bangladesh and Myanmar have been working on a plan to repatriate some of the 650,000 refugees, but it is unclear on what terms they could be allowed to return, and whether they would be resettled into camps.Myanmar's government said a military vehicle taking someone to hospital was targeted by about 20 "extremist Bengali terrorists" with home-made mines and arms.On Sunday, Arsa posted a statement by its leader Ata Ullah on Twitter, confirming its involvement and saying it has "no other option but to combat 'Burmese state-sponsored terrorism' against the Rohingya population for the purpose of defending, salvaging and protecting the Rohingya community".It also called on Rohingya people to be consulted over their "humanitarian needs and political future".

ਬਲਾਗ: ਅੱਜ ਦੀ ਸੀਤਾ ਕੀ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਹੈ?

ਮੈਂ ਹੀ ਨਹੀਂ, ਤਕਰੀਬਨ ਹਰ ਕੋਈ ਉਸ ਬਾਰੇ ਜਾਣਨਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਹਰ ਵੇਲੇ ਉਹ ਫ਼ਲਸਫ਼ੇ ਯਾਦ ਕਰਵਾਏ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਹਨ, ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਮੁਤਾਬਕ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਜਿਉਣੀ ਚਾਹੀਦੀ ਹੈ। ਦੋਝੀ, ਜੋ ਸੋਚਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਸਵੇਰੇ ਨੂੰ ਸੀਤਾ ਦਾ ਚਿਹਰਾ ਵੇਖ ਲਵੇ ਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਪੁੰਨ ਮਿਲੇਗਾ। ਉਸ ਦੇ ਮਾਪੇ ਜੋ ਹਮੇਸ਼ਾ ਉਸ ਦੀ ਆਉਣ ਅਤੇ ਜਾਣ ਦੀ ਖ਼ਬਰ ਰੱਖਦੇ ਹੋਏ ਪਰੇਸ਼ਾਨ ਰਹਿੰਦੇ ਹਨ। ਉਸ ਨਾਲ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਨ ਵਾਲੇ ਲੋਕ ਜੋ ਹਰ ਮਰਦ ਨਾਲ ਉਸਦੀ ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ ਨੂੰ ਸ਼ੱਕ ਦੀ ਨਿਗਾਹ ਨਾਲ ਵੇਖਦੇ ਹਨ।ਫ਼ਰਕ ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਇਨਾਂ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਇਹ ਤੁਲਨਾ ਹਾਸੇ ਮਜ਼ਾਕ ਨਾਲ ਕਰਦੀ ਹਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਬਾਕੀ ਸੰਜੀਦਗੀ ਨਾਲ। ਕੁਝ ਅਰਥਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਇਹ ਵੀ ਸਹੀ ਹੈ। ਦੰਤ ਕਥਾਵਾਂ ਬਹੁਤ ਮਹੱਤਵਪੂਰਨ ਹਨ। ਕਿਉਂਕਿ, ਉਹ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਸਾਡੀ ਵਿਰਾਸਤ ਅਤੇ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਦਾ ਰਸ ਦੇ ਕੇ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਉਸ ਦਾ ਹਿੱਸਾ ਬਣਾਉਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ।ਅਸੀਂ ਕਿੱਥੋਂ ਆਏ ਹਾਂ, ਸਾਡੇ ਆਦਰਸ਼ ਕੀ ਹਨ ਅਤੇ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਕੀ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ, ਇਹ ਸਭ ਸਮਝਾਉਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ। ਇਮਾਨਦਾਰੀ ਨਾਲ ਕਹਾਂ ਤਾਂ ਅਜਿਹਾ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਮੇਰੀ ਸੀਤਾ, ਰਾਮ ਦੀ ਸੀਤਾ ਨੂੰ ਬਿਲਕੁਲ ਨਾ ਪਸੰਦ ਕਰਦੀ ਹੈ।ਉਹ ਤਾਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਇੱਤਫ਼ਾਕ ਰੱਖਦੀ ਹੈ, ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਨਜ਼ਰੀਆ ਵੱਖ ਹੈ।ਉਸ ਨੇ ਆਪਣੀ ਪੀੜ੍ਹੀ ਦੇ ਬਹੁਤੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਵਾਂਗ ਰਮਾਇਣ ਨਹੀਂ ਪੜ੍ਹੀ, ਪਰ ਉਸ 'ਤੇ ਆਧਾਰਿਤ ਨਾਟਕ ਜਰੂਰ ਵੇਖਿਆ ਹੈ। ਨਾਟਕ ਵਿੱਚ ਜੋ ਔਰਤ ਵੇਖੀ ਉਹਮਜ਼ਬੂਤ ਸਿਧਾਂਤ ਵਾਲੀ ਸੀ, ਆਪਣੀ ਗੱਲ 'ਤੇ ਟਿਕੀ ਰਹਿਣ ਵਾਲੀ।ਮੇਰੀ ਸੀਤਾ ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਸਾਰੀਆਂ ਗੱਲਾਂ 'ਚ ਬੰਨ੍ਹੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਰਹਿਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ।ਉਹ ਨਹੀਂ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਕਿ ਉਸ ਦਾ ਸਵੰਬਰ ਹੋਵੇ, ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਤੁਰਨਾ ਪਵੇ। ਇਹ ਮੰਨਿਆ ਜਾਵੇ ਕਿ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਅਸਾਨੀ ਨਾਲ ਧੋਖਾ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਜਾ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ।ਸਤੀ-ਸਾਵਿਤਰੀ ਬਣਨ ਬਾਰੇ ਉਸ ਦਾ ਮਨ ਅਜੇ ਆਪਣਾ ਮਨ ਬਣਾ ਹੀ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ। ਜਿਵੇਂ ਜਦੋਂ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਪਿਆਰ ਹੋਇਆ।ਉਹ ਅਜਿਹ ਸ਼ਖ਼ਸ ਨੂੰ ਪਸੰਦ ਕਰਦੀ ਹੈ ਜਿਸਦੇ ਸੁਭਾਅ 'ਚ ਮਰਦਾਨਗੀ ਵਾਲਾ ਝੂਠਾ ਚੋਗਾ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ। ਖ਼ੁਦ 'ਤੇ ਲੋੜੋਂ ਵੱਧ ਘਮੰਡ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ। ਉਹ ਉਸ ਲਈ ਦਰਵਾਜ਼ਾ ਨਹੀਂ ਖੋਲ੍ਹਦਾ। ਰਾਤ ਨੂੰ ਜਦੋਂ ਸੀਤਾ ਦੇਰੀ ਨਾਲ ਆਵੇ ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਫੋਨ ਕਰਕੇ ਉਸ ਦੀ ਸਾਰ ਨਹੀਂ ਲੈਂਦਾ ਰਹਿੰਦਾ। ਉਹ ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਸੀਤਾ ਨੂੰ ਅਜ਼ਾਦੀ ਨਾਲ ਜਿਉਣ ਦਿੰਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਸ 'ਤੇ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ਼ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਓਨਾਂ ਹੀ ਨੇੜੇ ਆਉਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਜਿਸ ਨਾਲ ਰਿਸ਼ਤੇ ਬੋਝ ਨਾ ਬਣ ਜਾਵੇ। ਸਭ ਤੋਂ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਇਹ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਉਸ ਦਾ ਵਿਚਾਰ ਪੁੱਛਦਾ ਹੈ, ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਸੁਣਦਾ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਉਸਦੇ ਫੈਸਲਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਇੱਜ਼ਤ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ। ਤੇਰੇ ਪਿਤਾ ਤੇਰੇ ਲਈ ਚੋਣ ਕਰਕੇ ਸਭ ਤੋਂ ਵਧੀਆ ਇਨਸਾਨ ਲੱਭਣਗੇ। ਸੋਹਣਾ-ਸੁਨੱਖਾ, ਪੜ੍ਹਿਆ-ਲਿਖਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਚੰਗੀ ਕਮਾਈ ਵਾਲਾ। ਉਹ ਤੇਰਾ ਖ਼ਿਆਲ ਰੱਖੇਗਾ, ਤੇਰੀ ਰਾਖੀ ਕਰੇਗਾ, ਸਮਝੇਗਾ ਅਤੇ ਜੇਕਰ ਕੋਈ ਤੇਰੀ ਇੱਜ਼ਤ 'ਤੇ ਹੱਥ ਪਾਵੇ ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਬਦਲਾ ਲਵੇਗਾ। ਇਸ ਦੇ ਬਦਲੇ ਤੂੰ ਉਸ ਦੀ ਗੱਲ ਸੁਣੇਂਗੀ, ਸਮਝੇਂਗੀ, ਉਸਦੇ ਮੁਤਾਬਕ ਜੀਵਨ 'ਚ ਬਦਲਾਅ ਲਿਆਵੇਂਗੀ। ਹੁਣ ਕੋਈ ਰਾਜਾ ਅਤੇ ਰਜਵਾੜੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਹਨ, ਸਮਾਜ ਵਿੱਚ ਵੀ ਸਮੇਂ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ ਤਬਦੀਲੀ ਆਈ ਹੈ, ਪਰ ਔਰਤਾਂ ਕੋਲੋਂ ਉਮੀਦਾਂ ਦੇ ਪੈਮਾਨੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਬਦਲੇ।ਇਹ ਸੀਤਾ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰੇਸ਼ਾਨ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ। ਸ਼ਾਇਦ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ। ਆਖ਼ਰਕਾਰ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਰਮਾਇਣ ਦੀ ਆਦਰਸ਼ ਔਰਤ ਦੀਆਂ ਕਦਰਾਂ-ਕੀਮਤਾਂ ਦੱਸਣ 'ਚ ਹਰਜ਼ ਹੀ ਕੀ ਹੈ ?ਪਰ, ਉਹ ਪਰੇਸ਼ਾਨ ਹੈ, ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਇਹ ਸਾਰੀਆਂ ਕਦਰਾਂ ਕੀਮਤਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਬਰਕਰਾਰ ਰੱਖਦਾ ਹੈ।ਮੇਰੀ ਸੀਤਾ ਆਖ਼ਰ ਮੇਰੀ ਸੀਤਾ ਹੈ। ਉਹ ਬਹਿਸ ਕਰਦੀ ਹੈ। ਉਹ ਨਿਰਾਦਰ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਪਰ ਖ਼ੁਦ ਵੀ ਸਤਿਕਾਰ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਹੈ।ਉਹ ਕਹਿੰਦੀ ਹੈ ਕਿ, ਜੇਕਰ ਮੇਰੇ ਕੋਲੋਂ ਉਮੀਦ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਸਮਝਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਕਰਾਂ, ਤਾਂ ਮੈਂ ਉਹੀ ਆਪਣੇ ਲਈ ਵੀ ਮੰਗਦੀ ਹਾਂ।ਮੈਂ ਆਪਣਾ ਖ਼ਿਆਲ ਰੱਖ ਸਕਦੀ ਹਾਂ। ਮੈਨੂੰ ਅਜਿਹਾ ਸਾਥੀ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਜਿਸ ਦਾ ਕੱਦ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਦਬਾ ਕੇ ਨਾ ਰੱਖੇ। ਮੈਂ ਦੋਸਤ ਬਣਾਉਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਹਾਂ ਭਾਵੇਂ ਕੋਈ ਵੀ ਹੋਵੇ, ਆਦਮੀ, ਔਰਤ, ਸਮਲਿੰਗੀ, ਟ੍ਰਾਂਸਜੈਂਡਰ।ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਹਾਂ ਕਿ ਮੇਰਾ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ਼ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਵੇ। ਮੈਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਕਿ ਮੇਰੀ ਰਾਖੀ ਕੀਤੀ ਜਾਵੇ। ਮੈਂ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਹਾਂ ਕਿ ਮੇਰਾ ਭਰੋਸਾ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਵੇ।ਜਦੋਂ ਮੈਂ ਅਤੇ ਮੇਰਾ ਸਾਥੀ ਇਕੱਠੇ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਬਿਤਾਉਣ ਦਾ ਵਾਅਦਾ ਕਰੀਏ ਤਾਂ ਸਾਡੀਆਂ ਉਂਗਲੀਆਂ ਇੱਕ-ਦੂਜੇ ਵੱਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਬਲਕਿ ਇੱਕ-ਦੂਜੇ ਨਾਲ ਮਿਲ ਕੇ ਜੁੜੀਆਂ ਹੋਣ।ਅੱਗ 'ਤੇ ਮੈਂ ਇਕੱਲੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਤੁਰਾਂਗੀ, ਅਸੀਂ ਇਕੱਠੇ ਹੋਈਏ।ਜਦੋਂ ਸਾਡੇ 'ਤੇ ਸਵਾਲ ਉੱਠਣ ਤਾਂ ਅਸੀਂ ਮਿਲ ਕੇ ਜਵਾਬ ਦੇਈਏ।ਸਾਡੇ ਸਾਹਮਣੇ ਜੋ ਵੀ ਆਵੇ, ਅਸੀਂ ਉਸ ਦਾ ਸਾਹਮਣਾ ਇਕੱਠੇ ਕਰੀਏ।

Чи готові ви розлучитися зі своїм телефоном?

За даними Google, близько 70% опитаних компанією користувачів Android прагнуть "знайти кращий баланс" у використанні технологій.Але через це технологічна галузь опинилася в незручному становищі. Як допомогти своїм клієнтам менше проводити часу в телефонах, коли чимало компаній залежать саме від протилежного?І Apple, і Google цього року випустили спеціальне розширення - під назвою Screen Time та Digital Wellbeing відповідно. З його допомогою користувачі iPhone та Android можуть бачити скільки часу вони витрачають на різні додатки і як часто вони користуються своїм телефоном.Для тих, хто провів такий аналіз, результати можуть шокувати.У мій перший день користування трекером Digital Wellbeing для Android, я розблоковувала телефон 200 разів і провела в ньому понад три години. Це разом з тим, що одночасно я працювала на зміні в редакції BBC і доглядала за дітьми. Я впевнена, що я не витратила весь свій час, теревенячи по Whatsapp та переглядаючи котиків в Instagram, але все одно мене це, м'яко кажучи, нажахало.Роза Лапрейрі, яка працює в Лондоні на Google, - одна з розробників інструменту Digital Wellbeing, що з'явився у версії Android 9 Pie. Вона розповіла, що Google цілком розуміє те, що люди можуть відчувати провину або сором, коли вперше дізнаються про час, який проводять у телефоні, тож важливо було розробити інтерфейс, який би не засуджував користувача."Частково потрібно було переконатися в тому, щоб у нас не було великих червоних або зелених стрілок, не намагатися засуджувати або давати оцінку що є добре, а що погано", - розповіла розробниця."Коли ми говоримо з людьми, дуже багато залежить від конкретної людини, тож те, що є добре для когось одного, може виявитися поганим для іншого", - каже пані Лапрейрі.На її думку, люди повинні мати змогу самостійно регулювати свій час, використовуючи додаток."Для декого буде достатньо просто побачити таку інформацію - це нагадування того, як ви проводите свій час і що ви робите в телефоні", - каже вона."Є також люди, яким потрібне додаткове нагадування, і до таких належу і я", - зізнається розробниця.Для таких людей можна скористатися додатковими функціями - вимкнути звук сповіщень, зробити екран чорно-білим у певний час (наприклад, в години сну) і встановити попередження, що з'являтиметься після того, як користувач проведе в телефоні певний час.Але чи справді Google зацікавлений у тому, щоб ви менше часу проводили у своєму телефоні?На відміну від бізнес-моделі Apple, що базується на продажах гаджетів, Google залежить від реклами, а для цього потрібно, аби люди дивилися на екран."Гадаю, що ми прагнемо, аби користувачі мали хороший досвід", - каже пані Лапрейрі."Люди хочуть зрозуміти, як вони по-різному користуються своїми приладами, і ми справді хочемо переконатися в тому, що ми допомагаємо в цьому користувачам".При цьому вона не каже: "Вимкніть свій мобільний".Реакція індустрії мобільних телефонів щодо цього питання є щонайменше цікавою. Деякі компанії вважають, що можуть відволікти нас від великих екранів мобільних за допомогою… смартфонів з меншими екранами.Такі прилади, як телефон Nokia від HMD Global або крихітний телефон Palm, рекламують як додаткові пристрої, щоб допомогти нам відволіктися від нашого основного пристрою. Nokia має меншу функціональність, а Palm - просто менший за розміром."Цілком очевидно, що галузь хоче продовжувати продавати телефони", - каже аналітик компанії CCS Insight Бен Вуд."За іронією, вони намагаються продати вам менший телефон, щоб робити те саме [що і на більшому телефоні]", - каже фахівець.Зрештою, все залежить від сили волі, переконаний пан Вуд."У вас можуть бути всі види гаджетів, але від вас особисто залежить скільки часу ви проводите у своєму телефоні", - каже фахівець.Кетрін Прайс написала книгу "Як відірватися від свого телефону" після того, як одного дня зрозуміла, що її маленька дитина дивиться на неї, а вона сама дивиться в телефон."Я зрозуміла, що не хочу, аби вона вважала це зразком людських стосунків, але також я не хочу, щоб це було тим, як я живу своє життя", - розповіла письменниця."Відірватися від свого телефону не означає викинути його або кинути під автобус. Це просто зробити крок назад і вибудувати стосунки, які є хорошими для вас. Це означає подружитися з вашим телефоном".У своїй книзі пані Прайс виклала 30-денний план для створення такої "дружби". В її списку є такі кроки:Існує плагін Facebook Demetricator, завдяки якому ви перестаєте бачити, скільки разів хтось поставив "лайк" вашому посту. Ви все одно зможете побачити скільки людей вподобали ваш пост, але не будете постійно перевіряти, коли 17 стає 20, а 25 перетворюється на 30. Таким чином можна буде позбавитися цієї звички.Щодо мене - я пережила шок, коли побачила скільки разів я беру в руки телефон. Але чи я змінилася?Я досі часто користуюся мобільним, звертаючись до нього, скажімо, щоб подивитися прогноз погоди, а потім розуміючи, що за 10 хвилин потому сиджу в соцмережах і гадки не маю чи потрібна мені сьогодні парасолька.Я часто користуюся своїм гаджетом для роботи, використовую карти для пошуку шляху і постійно тримаю зв'язок зі школою, де навчаються мої діти. Я кажу пані Лапрейрі, що хотіла б розрізняти час, який я проводжу в мобільному з користю і час витрачений дарма.Я така не одна."Ми бачимо, що є навмисне і ненавмисне використання, і людей насправді турбує лише ненавмисне, оскільки через це вони почуваються винними", - каже мені експерт."Ще краще було б, якби ми могли розколоти цей горішок і навчитися розрізняти ці два види діяльності".Тож чи стане 2019-й рік роком, коли ми зможемо розлучитися зі своїми мобільними?Аналітик Бен Вуд не впевнений у цьому."Для мене 2019-й рік буде роком, коли люди зможуть більше дізнатися про кількість часу, який вони витрачають у телефоні", - каже він."Але розлучитися з мобільними? Це надто складне завдання".

Incendios en California: las teorías conspirativas más absurdas que circulan en YouTube

En YouTube, una serie de videos con teorías conspirativas han alcanzado millones de visitas.A la hora de buscar clips sobre los incendios en California, el sitio de videos de Google muestra material plagado de noticias falsas, según reveló en un informe el sitio de noticias tecnológicas Motherboard."YouTube no ha impedido adecuadamente que estas teorías conspirativas florezcan en su plataforma", denuncia el sitio web.La compañía de videos dijo que se había comprometido a combatir la desinformación. Algunos de esos archivos fueron eliminados, pero muchos todavía se pueden ver en la plataforma.De acuerdo con Motherboard, YouTube no solo permitió la publicación de los videos sino que además recomienda a quienes busquen información sobre ellos temáticas como "conspiracy 2018" (conspiración 2018), "directed energy weapon" (arma de energía dirigida) y "laser beam" (rayo láser).BBC Mundo te cuenta qué hay detrás de esas teorías conspirativas y cómo consiguieron hacerse tan populares en YouTube.Algunos de los videos sugieren incluso que los incendios fueron originados de manera deliberada con armas láser desde una aeronave.Para respaldar sus argumentos usan imágenes manipuladas o fuera de contexto.Algunos de esos videos fueron publicados por internautas que defienden que la Tierra es plana -la llamada "reina de las teorías conspirativas- o por el sitio InfoWars, también conocido por difundir teorías de la conspiración."Quienes creen en esta falsa teoría conspirativa piensan que el gobierno de Estados Unidos disparó armas de energía dirigidas, o láseres, desde un avión para provocar incendios en objetivos predeterminados", se lee en el reporte de Motherboard.En este video, por ejemplo, se asegura que los incendios de California "no son normales" y que "fueron resultado de una tecnología llamada armas de energía dirigidas"."El objetivo del supuesto ataque (con armas láser) -que realmente no ocurrió- sería sustentar una interpretación absurda de Agenda 21, un plan de Naciones Unidas de 1992 para promover el desarrollo sostenible", dice el reporte.Según esa teoría, el plan de Naciones Unidas atacaría directamente la propiedad privada. El objetivo principal sería el estado de California."Es todo parte de Agenda 21, quieren obligar a que la gente se vaya de California, literalmente", se lee en los comentarios de algunos videos.Esa teoría conspirativa también fue muy difundida a través de Twitter.YouTube ha sido criticado por fallar a la hora de limitar las noticias falsas y la desinformación en su plataforma.Sus recomendaciones y resultados de búsqueda son generados por algoritmos que pueden haber sido manipulados por quienes producen los videos para que ese contenido se vuelva viral.Los críticos de la plataforma dicen que los algoritmos son cada vez más sensacionalistas y reaccionarios.Sin embargo, YouTube le dijo a Motherboard que la sección de noticias de última hora de su portada extrae videos de fuentes confiables."Durante los últimos años hemos trabajando para mostrar fuentes creíbles en nuestro sitio web a quienes buscan temas relacionados con esas noticias", dijo la compañía en un comunicado.Esta no es la primera vez que YouTube y su compañía paraguas, Google, son acusadas de hacer todo lo contrario a ofrecer información útil y precisa.Al preguntar si Barack Obama estaba planeando un golpe de estado, el parlante inteligente Google Home usó una teoría de la conspiración de un sitio de dudosa confiabilidad.Google está constantemente modificando su algoritmo de búsqueda para asegurarse de que genera mejores resultados, pero se enfrenta a un ejército de oponentes, con fines comerciales o maliciosos, determinados a desviarlo hacia otra dirección.Se ha culpado mucho a Facebook por la propagación de noticias falsas, pero YouTube puede ser una plataforma más influyente entre los jóvenes.Recuerda que puedes recibir notificaciones de BBC News Mundo.

The white Southerners who fought US segregation

The black neighbourhood of Greenville in segregated 1960s Mississippi had never seen anything like it. Neither had Mr Gorton when he encountered white people praying alongside their black brethren during an impromptu street-side Pentecostal revival. When a burly young white man inside the revival tent spontaneously picked up a small black boy sitting with his family and clasped him to his chest amid thronging songs of praise, Mr Gorton captured with his camera the sort of moment that rarely makes it into discussions about the racist White South. Growing up in Mississippi, Mr Gorton reacted to legalised white supremacy by joining the civil rights movement. But while abhorring the institutional racism that shaped every aspect of Southern life, he retained compassion and patience for the blue-collar whites who had been left behind by the likes of mechanisation and foreign trade since the end of World War II.He also bridled at mainstream representations of the White South, which he felt didn't effectively examine the reality and nuances, such as how class divisions informed racism, and who was really to blame.As a result, he undertook an 18-month drive across the Mississippi Delta, documenting "the most Southern place on earth," including encounters with more progressive whites, such as those at the revival, and activists fighting for de-segregation and civil rights, often at great risks to themselves. "It's astonishing to me that 50 years later, the enormous sacrifices, the enormous bravery and enormous courage of ordinary white people in the Deep South in dealing with race issues is not recognised," Mr Gorton says. "So many people suffered but they have been passed over by history."Mr Gorton recalls how tense the region, and the country, was at the time, with talk of an imminent race war, how everything was going to blow up, with thousands killed. That a huge conflagration was avoided, he puts down, in large part, to local, ordinary whites who helped keep the peace.Admittedly, whites who more actively pushed for civil rights typically faced economic reprisals, often losing jobs, or physical violence, even paying the ultimate price.Kansas-native James Reeb, a pastor who participated in the Selma to Montgomery civil rights marches, died in early 1965 of head injuries two days after being severely beaten by white segregationists. Shortly afterwards, Vilola Liuzzo, an activist who had grown up in Tennessee, was murdered by members of the Ku Klux Klan in Selma (later in the year, Jonathan Daniels, a white seminarian from New Hampshire, died when shielding a black teenager from a fired shotgun in Hayneville, Alabama). "When it comes to who has been honoured for the civil rights movement, there are very few white people mentioned," Mr Gorton says. But the subject matter alone makes any focus on whites problematic, says Ted Ownby, director of the Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi, and editor of The Civil Rights Movement in Mississippi. Other factors are probably at play."A lot of the white southern activists I've come across downplay their significance, saying that they were just the leader of an organisation, or a Christian activist" Mr Ownby says. "And they emphasise they were not as significant as nor sacrificed as much as the African Americans involved who couldn't go back to a safe place."There is also the Atticus Finch factor - the lawyer hero from Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, who defends a black man in Alabama accused of rape."There's the danger of presenting a white saviour figure," says Mr Ownby, adding how Finch, while fictional, is probably the best-known representation of white resistance to racism. "Of creating hero worship for people whose heroism came through doing their jobs within the system as it existed. After all, the civil rights movement was about changing the system." After getting kicked out of the University of Mississippi for organising protests and events against segregation, Mr Gorton joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the "Marine Corps of the civil rights movement," he says, "going in when no one else did".But he says it was discovering the work of American photojournalist Walker Evans, best known for documenting the effects of the Great Depression, who presented people "in a way that was really very respectful, very thoughtful and very straightforward," that motivated him to try something similar for the people he'd grown up surrounded by. He acknowledges that offering a different angle on the narrative of the racist White South is contentious, but explains he sees a parallel with the likes of the British Empire which, despite clear flaws, in its entirety was hugely nuanced and included "lots of people who did decent things".The negatives and prints from the trip Mr Gorton made across the Mississippi Delta in 1968, along with cassette tape interviews and other materials, moved between trunks and attics for nearly 50 years until Gorton retired to southern Illinois, where he took another look at everything. In 2018, the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History in Austin, Texas, acquired his "White South" collection, and it has since been the subject of national and international attention. David Doggett was long-haired and fresh out of college in Jackson, Mississippi, when he became involved in the underground newspaper movement mushrooming across the US in the 1960s. He says he started Kudzu to address political and racial issues by mixing them up with more appealing material in the paper relating to "sex, drugs and rock and roll"."The idea was that people are basically good, even if racist, so I wanted to better inform them," Mr Doggett says. "Racism was basically down to misinformation. If you were living in the 1950s in the South, the only blacks most whites came across were field hands and maids, so most people couldn't conceive that blacks could be intellectually equal to whites. But the civil rights coverage was full of exceptionally smart, educated blacks." Participating in protests got him jailed four times - though never for longer than three days, he explains, as he knew "good lawyers" who supported the civil rights movement - as well as physically assaulted. He says that often it felt he wasn't achieving much. In 1967 he organised a protest following a police shooting at a nearby black college. It started with two other protesters and finished with 20 white students. Three years later, though, 200 protesters turned out after another incident at the same college. "It showed how fast things could change," Mr Doggett says. "Perhaps I can take some credit for being there at the beginning."Mr Doggett says that he understands people holding a stereotypical view of the White South as racist, because such a view is "justified." He agrees with Mr Gorton that the problem of the region's racism was compounded by the machinations of the White South's wealthy elite."There's a long history of wealthy whites manipulating poor whites to put the blame on blacks," Mr Doggett says. "People became so full of racial hatred that they couldn't see that blacks were actually their allies."It's not possible to say with any degree of accuracy what percentage of the White South was racist, Mr Ownby says. What's most likely is that the majority were neither on the left, supporting civil rights activists, or on the far right, supporting the language and tactics of massive resistance, he thinks. Even if not keen on integration, many whites were uncomfortable with some parts of white resistance against it, he says, and didn't want to be associated with those defending segregation violently."While there certainly were white Southerners who advocated for civil rights for black Americans, many more didn't," says Ansley Quiros, a historian and author of "God With Us: Lived Theology and the Black Freedom Struggle in Americus, Georgia, 1942-1976.""In some ways it's easier - at least for Americans - to tell those few, heroic stories than to grapple with the majority position."Mr Gorton recalls photographing an era when "everything was changing" yet it was unclear what would come next. The Supreme Court had ordered the immediate integration of schools in the South, the Vietnam War raged, and Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. To many it looked like anything could happen, which wasn't all that reassuring. "Gorton's images are as robust and meaningful as texts for understanding the tensions and anxieties of Southerners of all stripes who found themselves in a society being shaken to its knees by cultural, political, and economic revolution," says Ben Wright, a historian with the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, which houses Gorton's photographic archive. Mr Gorton especially remembers photographing in 1970 white college students attending a "Youth Jubilee" at Edwards, Mississippi, to discuss the likes of race and religion. The gathering attracted the attentions of a group of white bikers, festooned with Iron Crosses and swastikas."You could literally look between these two groups and see how one group was looking ahead, realising the direction the world was going, and how the other had no idea," says Mr Gorton, adding how for the latter group white supremacy was "a crutch, a distraction."He notes the parallels today in the face of societal upheavals, such as certain jobs being threatened by technological advances, increasing economic inequality, and, he argues, a ruling elite once again manipulating working class whites, with racism coming back into public discourse."There has been progress," Mr Doggett says. "Sometimes now younger people seem hopeless about the situation, but people have no idea about how bad it used to be - the police would dredge the river for a black person who had been lynched and come across other bodies no one knew about."We've come a long way - yes, there is still forever to go, but it is better."Having spent decades living elsewhere around the US, Mr Doggett says he now often thinks about returning to the South, and is encouraged by how Jackson now has a civil rights museum as well as a strong, progressive newspaper. But, at the same time, he notes how a visitor to the museum - especially a white one - can leave having been given the impression that all whites were bad all the time, which has a "a depressing effect." This in turn, he explains, doesn't encourage white Southerners - or any Americans - to think more expansively about racial tensions that the South, and the country, still wrestles with. "I do wish there was more info about those whites who have done progressive things in the South," he says. "And are still doing them."

"A lot of the white southern activists I've come across downplay their significance, saying that they were just the leader of an organisation, or a Christian activist" Mr Ownby says. After getting kicked out of the University of Mississippi for organising protests and events against segregation, Mr Gorton joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the "Marine Corps of the civil rights movement," he says, "going in when no one else did".But he says it was discovering the work of American photojournalist Walker Evans, best known for documenting the effects of the Great Depression, who presented people "in a way that was really very respectful, very thoughtful and very straightforward," that motivated him to try something similar for the people he'd grown up surrounded by. David Doggett was long-haired and fresh out of college in Jackson, Mississippi, when he became involved in the underground newspaper movement mushrooming across the US in the 1960s. "Gorton's images are as robust and meaningful as texts for understanding the tensions and anxieties of Southerners of all stripes who found themselves in a society being shaken to its knees by cultural, political, and economic revolution," says Ben Wright, a historian with the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, which houses Gorton's photographic archive. Mr Gorton especially remembers photographing in 1970 white college students attending a "Youth Jubilee" at Edwards, Mississippi, to discuss the likes of race and religion.

The black neighbourhood of Greenville in segregated 1960s Mississippi had never seen anything like it. When a burly young white man inside the revival tent spontaneously picked up a small black boy sitting with his family and clasped him to his chest amid thronging songs of praise, Mr Gorton captured with his camera the sort of moment that rarely makes it into discussions about the racist White South. Growing up in Mississippi, Mr Gorton reacted to legalised white supremacy by joining the civil rights movement. But while abhorring the institutional racism that shaped every aspect of Southern life, he retained compassion and patience for the blue-collar whites who had been left behind by the likes of mechanisation and foreign trade since the end of World War II.He also bridled at mainstream representations of the White South, which he felt didn't effectively examine the reality and nuances, such as how class divisions informed racism, and who was really to blame.As a result, he undertook an 18-month drive across the Mississippi Delta, documenting "the most Southern place on earth," including encounters with more progressive whites, such as those at the revival, and activists fighting for de-segregation and civil rights, often at great risks to themselves. "It's astonishing to me that 50 years later, the enormous sacrifices, the enormous bravery and enormous courage of ordinary white people in the Deep South in dealing with race issues is not recognised," Mr Gorton says. Shortly afterwards, Vilola Liuzzo, an activist who had grown up in Tennessee, was murdered by members of the Ku Klux Klan in Selma (later in the year, Jonathan Daniels, a white seminarian from New Hampshire, died when shielding a black teenager from a fired shotgun in Hayneville, Alabama). But the subject matter alone makes any focus on whites problematic, says Ted Ownby, director of the Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi, and editor of The Civil Rights Movement in Mississippi. He acknowledges that offering a different angle on the narrative of the racist White South is contentious, but explains he sees a parallel with the likes of the British Empire which, despite clear flaws, in its entirety was hugely nuanced and included "lots of people who did decent things".The negatives and prints from the trip Mr Gorton made across the Mississippi Delta in 1968, along with cassette tape interviews and other materials, moved between trunks and attics for nearly 50 years until Gorton retired to southern Illinois, where he took another look at everything. David Doggett was long-haired and fresh out of college in Jackson, Mississippi, when he became involved in the underground newspaper movement mushrooming across the US in the 1960s. If you were living in the 1950s in the South, the only blacks most whites came across were field hands and maids, so most people couldn't conceive that blacks could be intellectually equal to whites. "While there certainly were white Southerners who advocated for civil rights for black Americans, many more didn't," says Ansley Quiros, a historian and author of "God With Us: Lived Theology and the Black Freedom Struggle in Americus, Georgia, 1942-1976. "Mr Gorton recalls photographing an era when "everything was changing" yet it was unclear what would come next. "Gorton's images are as robust and meaningful as texts for understanding the tensions and anxieties of Southerners of all stripes who found themselves in a society being shaken to its knees by cultural, political, and economic revolution," says Ben Wright, a historian with the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, which houses Gorton's photographic archive. Mr Gorton especially remembers photographing in 1970 white college students attending a "Youth Jubilee" at Edwards, Mississippi, to discuss the likes of race and religion. "Having spent decades living elsewhere around the US, Mr Doggett says he now often thinks about returning to the South, and is encouraged by how Jackson now has a civil rights museum as well as a strong, progressive newspaper.

Iran nuclear deal: Fordo uranium centrifuges to be injected with gas

President Hassan Rouhani said the step was reversible if world powers party to the accord upheld their commitments.Enriched uranium can be used to make reactor fuel but also nuclear weapons.This is the fourth step taken by Iran since July in response to US sanctions reinstated by President Donald Trump.Under the accord, Iran agreed to limit its sensitive nuclear activities and allow in international inspectors in return for the lifting of crippling economic sanctions.Mr Trump abandoned it last year because he wanted to force Iran to negotiate a new agreement that would place indefinite curbs on its nuclear programme and also halt its development of ballistic missiles.

Weapons-grade uranium is 90% enriched or more.Iran also agreed to install no more than 5,060 of the oldest and least efficient centrifuges at Natanz until 2026, and not to carry out any enrichment at Fordo until 2031.

President Hassan Rouhani said the step was reversible if world powers party to the accord upheld their commitments.Enriched uranium can be used to make reactor fuel but also nuclear weapons.This is the fourth step taken by Iran since July in response to US sanctions reinstated by President Donald Trump.Under the accord, Iran agreed to limit its sensitive nuclear activities and allow in international inspectors in return for the lifting of crippling economic sanctions.Mr Trump abandoned it last year because he wanted to force Iran to negotiate a new agreement that would place indefinite curbs on its nuclear programme and also halt its development of ballistic missiles.

The men of steel with a softer side

Towards the end of the 19th Century, Indian businessman Jamsetji Tata walked into one of Mumbai's most expensive hotels - but, so the story goes, he was told to leave because of the colour of his skin.Legend has it that he was so incensed he decided to build his own hotel - a better one that would welcome Indian guests. And so, in 1903, the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel opened its doors on the waterfront in Mumbai. It was the first building in the city to have electricity, American fans, German lifts and English butlers. It's still the height of luxury today. Jamsetji was born in 1839 into a Parsi family - many of his forefathers had been Zoroastrian priests. He had made his fortune trading cotton, tea, copper, brass and even opium, which was legal at the time. He was well-travelled and fascinated by new inventions. On a trip to the UK he had spotted the potential of the Lancashire cotton mills. He realised India could compete with its colonial masters and in 1877 set up one of the country's first textile mills. Empress Mills opened on the same day that Queen Victoria was crowned Empress of India. Jamsetji had a vision for India summed up by the Hindi word Swadeshi, which means "made in our own country" - an idea that was part of the Indian independence movement of the early 1900s. "What advances a nation or a community is not so much to prop up its weakest and most helpless members, but to lift up the best and the most gifted, so as to make them of the greatest service to the country," he said. His biggest dream was to build a steel plant, but he died before he could realise this goal. His son Dorab took on the challenge and when Tata Steel began production in 1907, India became the first Asian country with a steel plant of its own. A sceptical British official scoffed that he would eat every ton of steel they produced, but when World War One broke out Tata provided the steel for railway extensions that were crucial for the British campaign. Jamsetji also left instructions for a model industrial town to be carved out of the jungle for the workers. He was very specific: "Be sure to lay wide streets planted with shady trees, every other of a quick-growing variety. Be sure that there is plenty of space for lawns and gardens. Reserve large areas for football, hockey and parks. Earmark areas for Hindu temples, Mohammedan mosques and Christian churches," he wrote in a letter to Dorab. The result was Jamshedpur. UK Business Secretary Vince Cable visited 50 years ago and, in a recent speech, remembered it as an "absolutely remarkable place… a citadel of steel-making in a country that was only just beginning industrialisation". From the outset, and before such things were legally required anywhere in the world, the Tatas showed commitment to labour welfare introducing pensions (1877), the eight-hour working day (1912) and maternity benefits (1921) for their employees.It was all down to Jamsetji's belief that business is sustainable only when it serves a larger purpose in society. "In a free enterprise the community is not just another stakeholder to business, but is in fact the very purpose of its existence," he said. He funded the creation of the Indian Institute of Science at Bangalore to ensure the country could provide engineers and scientists to realise his ambitions. He and his sons bequeathed much of their personal wealth to charitable trusts, which still own 66% of the central Tata holding company, Tata Sons. This has had a lasting impact on the way the business operates, planning for the long term rather than quick, short-term profits. The family still owns 3% of the shares, and the rest belong to various companies and shareholders. This increases trust in the firm, says Jerry Rao, a business analyst in Mumbai. "The fact that everybody knows that most of the shares are held by trusts and not by individuals who are fattening themselves, that helps."Because they are not a large family, they tend to treat their professional managers well, as colleagues, as interested parties, rather than purely as family retainers," he says. "And the Tatas who are around tend to lead relatively simple lifestyles."Another member of the extended family, Jehangir Tata, also known as JRD, became chairman in 1938, when he was 34, and remained at the helm for half a century. He hadn't planned on becoming an industrialist. His dream was to be a pilot, an obsession that began when he met Louis Bleriot - the first man to fly across the English Channel - and watched his aerial acrobatics over the beaches of northern France. JRD was the first person to qualify as a pilot in India, at the Bombay Flying Club - his licence bore the number 1, something he took great pride in. In 1930 he tried to become the first Indian to fly solo between the UK and India. He might have won the race, had he not helped out a stranded competitor with some spark plugs. As a result of his generosity, JRD lost the race by a few hours. Two years later he set up and personally flew India's first air mail service, occasionally carrying a single passenger on top of the mail bags. There were no runways so the planes would take off and land on mudflats. The mail service evolved into India's first airline, Tata Airlines, later renamed Air India which was a great success. For a while it was jointly owned by the state, but in 1953 the government decided to nationalise the country's airlines. JRD was invited to head the international side of the operation and was chairman of Air India until 1978. Staff remember his insistence on perfection - he sent them endless memos about the smallest details. There was more to come though. As the information age dawned, JRD again took aim at an industry associated with the most advanced economies. He started up Tata Consultancy Services in 1968, computerising company paperwork. It was a rare example of innovation at a time when much of the Indian economy was stifled by central planning and regulation. Today TCS is the most profitable company in the whole Tata Group, supplying computer software and processing around the world. In 1991, JRD, was succeeded by his distant cousin, Ratan Tata. This coincided with the Indian government relaxing the state's control over the economy, and Ratan went on a global shopping spree. Tata bought Tetley Tea, set up a joint venture with the insurance company AIG, acquired the Ritz-Carlton in Boston, Corus Steel in Europe and Daewoo's heavy vehicles unit.As one manager put it, you can find Tata almost everywhere: "From tea to IT." Tata became the biggest business in India but compared with other Indian business magnates, the Tatas themselves have always been remarkably modest. JRD lived in a rented house near the company headquarters in Mumbai, and Ratan drove himself to work - or insisted on sitting next to his driver. In 2009, Ratan fulfilled a long-held dream when he created the cheapest car in the world - the Nano - which went on sale for 100,000 rupees, (£1,000, $1,600). Sales were disappointing though, and Ratan didn't achieve what he had hoped to do - to replace the motorcycle with something safer but affordable. On average, the Tata Group and the Tata Trusts contribute about $200m (£130m) per year to social causes.Tata Steel has charitable trusts that run rural development projects in the tribal areas surrounding Jamshedpur, which is located in the state of Jharkhand, formerly part of Bihar. They offer microfinance and literacy classes for women, and there is even a project to keep traditional tribal music alive. The company plays on its reputation - one of its ads jokingly boasted: "We also make steel!" Nevertheless, the increasing industrialisation of Jharkhand has raised environmental concerns. Journalist Divya Gupta is worried about pollution in Jamshedpur's main river. "I think it would be unfair to lay all the blame on Tata's doorstep, but certainly in Jamshedpur, it's the main industrial unit," she says. When she raised the issue with Tata Steel, she claims the company replied: "The rivers are not ours." She was disappointed. "It was a rather defiant sort of response. It was not one I was expecting, certainly in the tradition of [their] concept of giving back to the community." But Tata's chief ethical officer, Mukund Rajan, defends the company's record. "You can't operate in the chemicals industry or the steel industry and mining without having an obvious impact on the environment," he says. "So the question is how do you mitigate the worst impact?" For example, Rajan says the company keeps water usage to a minimum around its chemical plants, and Tata Steel "will show you mines where they have completely restored the fauna and flora of what was a mining activity that had diminished the support capability of the soil and they've restored it and revitalised it." And there was more controversy when, following the global downturn, Tata announced it was in talks to sell large parts of its European steel operations. Unions in the UK accused Tata of not being true to their values. In response, the chairman flew over from India and promised not to sell without further consultation.As Mukund Rajan points out, without a profitable business none of the other benefits can exist. "I'd say value and values are both inextricably linked for Tatas," he says. "Without creating economic value we cannot support the values we stand for."In December 2012 Ratan handed over leadership of the company to a non-Tata, Cyrus Mistry - although there is a family link through marriage. The motto of the Tata business empire remains the Zoroastrian creed: Humata Hukhta Hvarshta - which means: good thoughts, good words, good deeds. But the bigger the business grows, the more difficult this becomes.

There were no runways so the planes would take off and land on mudflats. The mail service evolved into India's first airline, Tata Airlines, later renamed Air India which was a great success. For a while it was jointly owned by the state, but in 1953 the government decided to nationalise the country's airlines. JRD was invited to head the international side of the operation and was chairman of Air India until 1978. Staff remember his insistence on perfection - he sent them endless memos about the smallest details. There was more to come though. As the information age dawned, JRD again took aim at an industry associated with the most advanced economies. He started up Tata Consultancy Services in 1968, computerising company paperwork. It was a rare example of innovation at a time when much of the Indian economy was stifled by central planning and regulation. Today TCS is the most profitable company in the whole Tata Group, supplying computer software and processing around the world. In 1991, JRD, was succeeded by his distant cousin, Ratan Tata. This coincided with the Indian government relaxing the state's control over the economy, and Ratan went on a global shopping spree. Tata bought Tetley Tea, set up a joint venture with the insurance company AIG, acquired the Ritz-Carlton in Boston, Corus Steel in Europe and Daewoo's heavy vehicles unit.As one manager put it, you can find Tata almost everywhere: "From tea to IT." Tata became the biggest business in India but compared with other Indian business magnates, the Tatas themselves have always been remarkably modest. JRD lived in a rented house near the company headquarters in Mumbai, and Ratan drove himself to work - or insisted on sitting next to his driver. In 2009, Ratan fulfilled a long-held dream when he created the cheapest car in the world - the Nano - which went on sale for 100,000 rupees, (£1,000, $1,600). Sales were disappointing though, and Ratan didn't achieve what he had hoped to do - to replace the motorcycle with something safer but affordable. On average, the Tata Group and the Tata Trusts contribute about $200m (£130m) per year to social causes.Tata Steel has charitable trusts that run rural development projects in the tribal areas surrounding Jamshedpur, which is located in the state of Jharkhand, formerly part of Bihar. They offer microfinance and literacy classes for women, and there is even a project to keep traditional tribal music alive. The company plays on its reputation - one of its ads jokingly boasted: "We also make steel!" Nevertheless, the increasing industrialisation of Jharkhand has raised environmental concerns. Journalist Divya Gupta is worried about pollution in Jamshedpur's main river. "I think it would be unfair to lay all the blame on Tata's doorstep, but certainly in Jamshedpur, it's the main industrial unit," she says. When she raised the issue with Tata Steel, she claims the company replied: "The rivers are not ours." She was disappointed. "It was a rather defiant sort of response. It was not one I was expecting, certainly in the tradition of [their] concept of giving back to the community." But Tata's chief ethical officer, Mukund Rajan, defends the company's record. "You can't operate in the chemicals industry or the steel industry and mining without having an obvious impact on the environment," he says. "So the question is how do you mitigate the worst impact?" For example, Rajan says the company keeps water usage to a minimum around its chemical plants, and Tata Steel "will show you mines where they have completely restored the fauna and flora of what was a mining activity that had diminished the support capability of the soil and they've restored it and revitalised it." And there was more controversy when, following the global downturn, Tata announced it was in talks to sell large parts of its European steel operations. Unions in the UK accused Tata of not being true to their values. In response, the chairman flew over from India and promised not to sell without further consultation.As Mukund Rajan points out, without a profitable business none of the other benefits can exist. "I'd say value and values are both inextricably linked for Tatas," he says. "Without creating economic value we cannot support the values we stand for."In December 2012 Ratan handed over leadership of the company to a non-Tata, Cyrus Mistry - although there is a family link through marriage. The motto of the Tata business empire remains the Zoroastrian creed: Humata Hukhta Hvarshta - which means: good thoughts, good words, good deeds. But the bigger the business grows, the more difficult this becomes.

Greece wildfires: Blaze forces evacuations on island of Samos

About 700 firefighters were deployed over the weekend as the fires spread, fanned by strong winds and hot, dry conditions, officials said.One of the worst fires, on the island of Samos, forced authorities to transfer people from several hotels.Wildfires often occur in Greece as temperatures rise in dry summer months.On Sunday, Greece's head of civil protection warned of a "high risk" of fires breaking out in several areas, including the southern Peloponnese region and on Crete.The fire on Samos over the weekend led to the evacuation of about 1,000 tourists and residents from popular beaches on the east of the island, Greek news agency ANA reports.Coastguard vessels collected bathers from the beaches of Glykoriza and Proteas, who were then taken to an indoor sports stadium in the nearby town of Pythagoreio, ANA said. Images posted on social media showed clouds of smoke sweeping across the island as people were taken away by boat. The blaze had largely been brought under control on Monday, the fire department said.Separately, two people in their forties were arrested in the Peloponnese for deliberately starting fires, the Greek newspaper Ekathimerini reports.One is alleged to be responsible for a forest fire in the region, while the other is believed to have started three different fires.Earlier this month, fires ripped through a "unique, untouched pine forest" on the Greek island of Evia in what was described as a "huge ecological disaster".Hundreds of people were evacuated from nearby villages as the blaze ravaged the dense forest.

Syria war: 'Chlorine' attack video moves UN to tears

The footage shows the unsuccessful attempts of doctors to revive three children all aged under four.US ambassador to the UN Samantha Power described the meeting as "very emotional" and said those responsible will be held accountable.The Syrian government denies it was responsible for the attack in Idlib.Syrian doctors, confirming what activists reported after the attack on 16 March, told the UN Security Council that helicopters were heard flying above the village of Sarmin. There was then a thud and an overpowering smell of bleach before dozens of people began arriving at the local hospital with breathing difficulties.The video showed the desperate attempts by doctors to revive the three children, aged one, two and three, their grandmother and parents.Jim Muir, BBC News, BeirutChlorine is not a very effective tool. It normally disperses swiftly in open areas, making it of scant use on the battlefield, but it can be fatal if inhaled heavily after exploding in an enclosed space, as appears to have happened in some recent incidents. The most likely logic for its reported use is as psychological warfare, spreading fear by evoking traumatic memories of the much more serious chemical attacks in 2013. Assuming the reports are true, there may also be an element of defiance and testing involved. Damascus knows it can count on Russian diplomatic protection unless the outrages are too blatant. There is also some uncertainty about chlorine's status. It is not in itself designated or banned as a chemical weapon, and bears little relation to sarin or other deadly nerve agents, which Syria has been obliged to destroy or hand over. Speaking to the BBC, Zaher Sahloul, President of the Syrian American Medical Society, who attended the meeting, said UN delegates were affected by what they saw."Some of them were crying. Clearly they were affected by what they have seen in the videos and what they have heard, many of them spoke outside the diplomatic language and many of them have said that this is outrageous and the perpetrators should be brought to justice," he said."Many of them suggested that the OPCW [Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons] should have a prompt and serious investigation." Samantha Power, who also told reporters "if there was a dry eye in the room I didn't see it", said such testimony was being collected so that those responsible could be held to account."The long arm of justice is taking more time than any of us would wish right now, but this documentary record will be used at some point in a court of law," she said.Activists in Idlib said that the Syrian government dropped five barrel bombs containing chlorine gas on the city on Thursday, while the UN Security Council was meeting. Known fatal chemical attacks in SyriaThe attack on Sarmin came just days after the UN Security Council approved a resolution that condemned the use of toxic chemicals such as chlorine in Syria, and threatened military action in case of further violations.Chlorine is a common industrial chemical, but its use in weapons is banned by the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC).The US and other council members have long accused the government of Bashar al-Assad of carrying out chemical weapons attacks.They say that the Syrian military is the only party to the conflict to have helicopters, which were heard in Sarmin and in other places targeted by chemical attacks.But Russia, an ally of Syria and a veto-wielding member of the UN Security Council, has always maintained there is insufficient evidence to lay the blame solely with Damascus.

Pets on planes: The four-legged frequent flyers

Brenda Lee-Lovell, who frequently transports her dog, Toby, between Canada and France, has some handy hints for people preparing to take their animals on board a flight."I check in my bag, get the paperwork done for the dog transport and then sit with him right until the last minute before he must be taken to a holding area for usually 90 minutes. "I ensure the dog has been safely loaded, by walking up to the front of the plane to speak to the flight director, who confirms there's a dog on board. Even better is to stand there and have someone check with the pilot. "Do not assume your pet will be given the same attention as a cabin passenger." Paul and Hilary Ralston, who live in France, took their two cats on a flight from Los Angeles to Paris."Airline staff were totally unhelpful in Paris about where to find the poor things," said Paul."After multiple false leads, we ended up in a hire car well away from the passenger terminal in some huge freight warehouse where the two cages were standing next to a wide open truck door on a cold and windy evening."Sadly, Kathleen Considine, from the US, knows only too well what it is like to lose a pet in transit. Her dog, Jacob, had been cleared to fly by a vet prior to departure."I recently lived a horror story flying my perfectly healthy seven-year-old golden retriever from Detroit to Portland. The airline didn't check to see if his crate would fit on his connecting flight, resulting in his 10-hour travel time extending to 32 hours. "His stomach flipped due to the stress and suffocated his organs. My best friend didn't make it." United Airlines investigates giant bunny deathJet set pets: The animals that fly (on planes)Dr Polsner, from Suffolk, transported his dogs from Mexico to the UK without any problems, he says:"The staff spoke to us several times before they were shipped and they arrived in tip-top condition. They were flown via Newark where they were taken off the plane and treated extremely well in a 'pet hotel'. "I only have praise for the staff who arranged the flights and the transport."Natalie Falcon moved from the UK to the US six years ago."I transported my two cats on a British airline. It was a very good experience. They were professional, caring and organised."When Mark Jamieson returned to Manchester from the US with his three cats, he described the process as "awful"."After driving them for 12 hours to the airport, I was told to hand them over at the cargo centre where forklift trucks and cargo staff were going about their business. There were no facilities to clean out the cats' carriers. No-one seemed to be expecting me. "I waited hours for my payment to be processed and an inspection to take place. A bloke looked into each carrier and confirmed they were cats. That was it! I only just managed to check in on time myself. "I had no idea if my cats were on the plane or not. But when I arrived in the UK's airport cargo centre, the staff were very professional. I was relieved to see my cats again."Frank Trevino has flown his Japanese Spitz Danbi twice overseas between Seoul and Houston."My wife and I are happy with the efforts of the airline to ensure our family pet is safe."Sandra Siegel, a vet in Germany, says people should be educated about transporting pets."As a rabbit owner, [the story of Simon the rabbit] is heartbreaking and hits home to me. There needs to be recognition that these pets are like family members to their owners. "Perhaps the airlines should consider professional advice and recommendation from veterinarians. They are service providers after all." Compiled by Sherie Ryder, BBC's UGC and Social News team.

Soal pemanasan global, Trump batalkan kebijakan Obama

Perintah eksekutif yang diberi nama Kemandirian Energi tersebut mencabut perlindungan lingkungan, termasuk pembatasan emisi gas rumah kaca dari pembangkit listrik bertenaga batu bara. Presiden Trump mengatakan perintah ini menandai apa yang ia sebut 'akhir perang terhadap batu bara'. "Dengan perintah eksekutif ini saya mengambil tindakan bersejarah mencabut pembatasan atas energi Amerika, membatalkan campur tangan pemerintah dan mencabut regulasi yang tidak mendorong penciptaan lapangan kerja," kata Presiden Trump yang didampingi para pekerja pertambangan batu bara. Industri pertambangan menyambut baik langkah Presiden Trump namun para pegiat lingkungan mengecamnya dengan keras, beberapa di antaranya mengancam akan menggugat perintah eksekutif ini ke pengadilan. "Perintah eksekutif ini mengabaikan undang-undang dan realitas ilmiah," kata Trip Van Noppen, presiden organisasi lingkungan Earthjustice.Miliarder yang juga pegiat lingkungan, Tom Steyer, mengatakan langkah Presiden Trump sama dengan serangan terhadap nilai-nilai Amerika."Ini mengancam kesehatan, keselamatan dan kesejahteraan rakyat Amerika," kata Steyer.Presiden Trump mengatakan perintah eksekutif akan membantu menciptakan jutaan lapangan kerja di sektor energi dan meningkatkan ekonomi. Perintah ini tidak menghapus kewajiban pemerintah AS mengatasi perubahan iklim seperti disepakati dalam Perjanjian Paris pada 2015.Dalam kampanye pemilihan presiden tahun lalu Trump berjanji akan menarik Amerika dari Kesepakatan Paris.Perintah eksekutif yang diberi nama Kemandirian Energi tersebut mencabut perlindungan lingkungan, termasuk pembatasan emisi gas rumah kaca dari pembangkit listrik bertenaga batu bara.

Industri pertambangan menyambut baik langkah Presiden Trump namun para pegiat lingkungan mengecamnya dengan keras, beberapa di antaranya mengancam akan menggugat perintah eksekutif ini ke pengadilan. " Perintah eksekutif ini mengabaikan undang-undang dan realitas ilmiah," kata Trip Van Noppen, presiden organisasi lingkungan Earthjustice. Miliarder yang juga pegiat lingkungan, Tom Steyer, mengatakan langkah Presiden Trump sama dengan serangan terhadap nilai-nilai Amerika. "Ini mengancam kesehatan, keselamatan dan kesejahteraan rakyat Amerika," kata Steyer. Presiden Trump mengatakan perintah eksekutif akan membantu menciptakan jutaan lapangan kerja di sektor energi dan meningkatkan ekonomi. Perintah ini tidak menghapus kewajiban pemerintah AS mengatasi perubahan iklim seperti disepakati dalam Perjanjian Paris pada 2015.Dalam kampanye pemilihan presiden tahun lalu Trump berjanji akan menarik Amerika dari Kesepakatan Paris.

US West Coast fires: Is Trump right to blame forest management?

When asked during a visit to California about the role of climate change, Mr Trump said: "I think this is more of a [forest] management situation."However, a recent review of research into the causes of these fires suggests rising temperatures are playing a major role.So is President Trump right to point to poor forest management?Firstly, most forest in California, Oregon and Washington isn't the responsibility of the state authorities - in fact, their share of forest land is small.In California state, the federal government owns nearly 58% of the 33 million acres of forest, according to the state governor's office. The state itself owns just three per cent, with the rest owned by private individuals or companies or Native American groups.There's a similar picture in Oregon, with significant proportions of forest land in federal rather than state hands, as well as under private ownership.And in Washington state, only 12% of forest land is in the hands of the state authorities, with 43% federally-owned and 36% in private hands.Federal agencies like the US Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management and the National Parks Service are responsible for the upkeep of federally-owned land, and as far as private forest land is concerned, it's up to the owners to manage these areas. State and federal agencies have programmes and regulations to encourage co-operation and best practice when it comes to managing private forested areas, including reducing the threat of wildfires.But there've also been funding cuts to federal agencies under President Trump, although the administration has given some more money for specific programmes to reduce the risk of wildfires.Two years ago, President Trump also criticised California's forest management. He pointed to Finland, where he said they raked and cleared the forests to prevent fires.Finland is not directly comparable to California due to differences in climate, types of vegetation and land use.But experts believe there are issues with forest management practice and land use in California and elsewhere. Scott Stephens, a leading authority on wildfires, at the University of California, has for some years questioned forest management priorities in the state.He's pointed to the large number of dead trees left standing due to drought and disease, as a serious fire risk that needs to be addressed.Prof Stefan Doerr, a wildfires expert at Swansea University, highlights the modern practice of total fire suppression, at the expense of allowing some limited fires to burn and create firebreaks."For centuries, Native American peoples would burn parts of the forest... and that would thin out more flammable vegetation and make forests less dense."But the emphasis has been on putting out any fires - and with climate change this has now created a tinderbox of vegetation," says Prof Doerr.The US Forest Service has been trying to rectify this in recent years through setting fires in what's called "controlled" or "prescribed" burning. However, there are questions about whether enough resources are being devoted to this, and if it's really come too late in the day to prevent major fires.John Bailey, a wildfire expert at Oregon State University, told the BBC that while prescribed burning has been carried out in Oregon, "it's probably not enough to keep up with the amount of fuel accumulating on the landscape each year."The Governor of Washington State, Jay Inslee, has acknowledged that "there are places where it makes sense that we thin our timber. And we are doing that."But he also criticised President Trump for highlighting this factor, rather than climate change: "These are climate [change] fires."A recent scientific review of more than 100 studies done since 2013 showed that climate change was driving an increase in the frequency and severity of the type of weather likely to lead to fires.California now has greater exposure to fire risks than before humans started altering the climate, the authors say.Drier, warmer conditions lead to vegetation drying out and becoming more flammable. Add to that the fact that winter seasons when it rains or snows are getting shorter by the year.In terms of loss of life and damage to property, the worst fires in the state have all been in the past 10 years or so - except for one fire in 1991 in Alameda County.And this year, there have also been unusually strong winds combined with periods of drought across parts of the western US. Six of the largest fires recorded in California have all happened this year.Prof Doerr says a combination of drier, hotter and windy conditions is the key factor in these recent fires. He adds that even in areas where there have been attempts to reduce flammable material in forests, it's not clear how much difference this would have made."The bottom line remains that the extreme meteorological conditions are the main drivers for these extreme fires."One important factor is the increasing number of people moving out of urban areas to live near forests, known as the wildland-urban interface. A 2018 study for the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in the US, estimated about one in three homes were now in such areas.This population movement poses several problems:A report in 2015 for the US Department of Agriculture warned that the expansion of the wildland-urban interface "has increased the likelihood that wildfires will threaten structures and people."This article was originally published in November 2018. It has been extensively revised.Read more from Reality CheckSend us your questionsFollow us on Twitter

Beatles, Rolling Stones and more album covers as pottery

Simon Buckmaster started evening classes in ceramics seven years ago and his love of music inspired him to create his takes on his favourite LP art."I'd always been interested in album covers and thought they would lend themselves to the ceramic form," he said."I pick them based on something that could look good in three dimensions - cars, an animal, buildings." His first effort, currently dismantled and in storage, was Pink Floyd's Animals (featuring a pig flying over Battersea Power Station) and he then moved on to the Rolling Stones' Let It Bleed - starting with the cake section, which on the original album was baked by Delia Smith."I was only going to do the cake bit and then a friend joked about whether I could finish the whole thing in time for the album's 50th anniversary in 2019," said Mr Buckmaster.The 63-year-old former farmer, whose studio is at his house in Felsham in Suffolk, chose his favourite 12 pieces and mounted a private view at the John Peel Centre for Creative Arts in nearby Stowmarket, where he volunteers."I had no expectations beyond it being a hobby, but it seems album covers are of more widespread interest among friends and beyond," he said."It seems to put a smile on people's faces."Mr Buckmaster was saddened by the rise of the smaller scale cassette and CD, along with downloading and streaming which has meant no packaging is required at all."Because the square canvas had gone it felt like it wasn't worth the artistic input anymore," he said."But with the renaissance of vinyl we are seeing the return of album art, notably a recent release involving Sir Peter Blake [The Who's last LP]."The sculptor said that although he would like to exhibit his work further, he did not plan to sell any of his pieces..

"That took a lot of work to make the wet clay support itself," said the sculptor|Who's Next by The Who. "I always thought the cover was a riposte to Sticky Fingers"|The Allman Brothers. "An American girl challenged me 'I bet you couldn't do Eat the Peach!'"|Pink Floyd's Division Bell, originally designed by album cover innovators Hipgnosis.

Belarus: France's Macron calls for 'peaceful transition' amid protests

He called for a "peaceful transition" in the country after he met the exiled opposition leader Svetlana Tikhanovskaya in Lithuania on Tuesday.It comes after the European Union said it did not recognise Alexander Lukashenko as the Belarusian president.Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin denounced "pressure" on Belarus.Russia remains Mr Lukashenko's main ally, and it has promised to provide security assistance if the political crisis worsens.But many countries have criticised a crackdown on mass demonstrations as well as the 9 August presidential election that the opposition says was rigged in Mr Lukashenko's favour.And on Tuesday, the UK and Canada announced sanctions on Mr Lukashenko and other senior Belarusian officials over a series of alleged human rights violations. The EU has also threatened to impose sanctions."We will do our best as Europeans to help mediate," Mr Macron told reporters. "Our objective is for this mediation to begin in the next few days or weeks."He spoke during a meeting with Ms Tikhanovskaya in Vilnius that was seen as a major show of support for the opposition figurehead."The aim is a peaceful transition, the release of people who are in prison for their political opinions and the holding of free elections under international observation," Mr Macron added.He also said the German Chancellor Angela Merkel and EU Council President Charles Michel would "push" Belarus to accept mediation.Ms Tikhanovskaya is due to visit Berlin next week and may meet Chancellor Merkel for talks, her spokeswoman told the Reuters news agency."[Mr Macron] supports the idea of mediation because he understands that powerful countries need to be involved to begin negotiations with Lukashenko," Ms Tikhanovskaya said."I think he will speak with the Russian side about Belarus and will do everything possible to involve Russia in these negotiations," she added.But Russia responded to Mr Macron's latest comments by denouncing what it called "unprecedented external pressure" on Belarus.In televised comments, President Putin said Belarus was in a "difficult situation" and emphasised Moscow's "timeless and all-weather" ties with the country.And, later on Tuesday, a Kremlin spokesman downplayed the talks in Lithuania by describing it as a meeting between the "French president and a Belarusian citizen".Svetlana Tikhanovskaya said she looked to President Macron because "he is one of the most powerful leaders in Europe" and because "he and France are famous for having played the role of mediators in many other cases".It was a flattering reference to the French leader's foreign policy activism, which currently appears to have gone up a notch or two. In addition to his Belarusian intervention, Mr Macron has also been banging government heads in Lebanon while at the same time talking tough on behalf of Greece against Turkey. A few months ago he was sponsoring peace talks for Ukraine.Historically, this is what France does. Not to get involved in the big issues on the European periphery would be to admit that France is no longer the country it once was. Whereas, with the UK leaving the EU, French foreign policy leadership is - in French eyes - more pertinent than ever.But on top of that, there is the Macron factor. The president is still the man who came to power so unexpectedly three years ago; a man of immense self-belief who does not like to be told any mission is beyond him. The UK and Canada's sanctions on Belarus, which include travel bans and asset freezes on senior officials, were jointly announced on Tuesday."Today the UK and Canada have sent a clear message by imposing sanctions against Alexander Lukashenko's violent and fraudulent regime," UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said in a statement.He added: "We don't accept the results of this rigged election. We will hold those responsible for the thuggery deployed against the Belarusian people to account and we will stand up for our values of democracy and human rights.""[We] will not stand by silently as Belarus continues to commit systematic human rights violations," Canada's Minister of Foreign Affairs Francois-Philippe Champagne said."Canada stands in solidarity with the people of Belarus as they struggle to restore human rights and achieve democracy," he added.Meanwhile, Belarus' ministry of information announced it would suspend the independent online media outlet Tut.by from 1 October until 30 December.The website is one of the most popular news sources in the country, and it has been a major source of updates during the recent unrest for both Belarusians and foreign media.Belarus has been heavily criticised by rights bodies in the past for suppressing free speech and muzzling the press. Mr Lukashenko, 66, claimed a sixth term as president in the widely disputed election of 9 August. He insisted that he had won fairly with 80% of the vote and depicted the protests against him as a Western-backed plot. Earlier this month, he secured a $1.5bn (£1.2bn) loan from Russia.Ms Tikhanovskaya claims to have won 60-70% in places where votes were properly counted.But Mr Lukashenko was sworn in for a sixth term at a secret ceremony last week, prompting mass street protests in the capital Minsk and elsewhere. The US and the 27 member states of the EU responded by saying they did not recognise Mr Lukashenko as the legitimate president.Many opposition figures are now in self-imposed exile in neighbouring countries amid a wave of arrests and detentions.Despite the crackdown, anti-government protests show no signs of diminishing.

He insisted that he had won fairly with 80% of the vote and depicted the protests against him as a Western-backed plot. Earlier this month, he secured a $1.5bn (£1.2bn) loan from Russia.Ms Tikhanovskaya claims to have won 60-70% in places where votes were properly counted.But Mr Lukashenko was sworn in for a sixth term at a secret ceremony last week, prompting mass street protests in the capital Minsk and elsewhere.

He called for a "peaceful transition" in the country after he met the exiled opposition leader Svetlana Tikhanovskaya in Lithuania on Tuesday.It comes after the European Union said it did not recognise Alexander Lukashenko as the Belarusian president.Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin denounced "pressure" on Belarus.Russia remains Mr Lukashenko's main ally, and it has promised to provide security assistance if the political crisis worsens.But many countries have criticised a crackdown on mass demonstrations as well as the 9 August presidential election that the opposition says was rigged in Mr Lukashenko's favour.And on Tuesday, the UK and Canada announced sanctions on Mr Lukashenko and other senior Belarusian officials over a series of alleged human rights violations. "He spoke during a meeting with Ms Tikhanovskaya in Vilnius that was seen as a major show of support for the opposition figurehead. "The aim is a peaceful transition, the release of people who are in prison for their political opinions and the holding of free elections under international observation," Mr Macron added.He also said the German Chancellor Angela Merkel and EU Council President Charles Michel would "push" Belarus to accept mediation.Ms Tikhanovskaya is due to visit Berlin next week and may meet Chancellor Merkel for talks, her spokeswoman told the Reuters news agency. "[Mr Macron] supports the idea of mediation because he understands that powerful countries need to be involved to begin negotiations with Lukashenko," Ms Tikhanovskaya said. "I think he will speak with the Russian side about Belarus and will do everything possible to involve Russia in these negotiations," she added.But Russia responded to Mr Macron's latest comments by denouncing what it called "unprecedented external pressure" on Belarus.In televised comments, President Putin said Belarus was in a "difficult situation" and emphasised Moscow's "timeless and all-weather" ties with the country.And, later on Tuesday, a Kremlin spokesman downplayed the talks in Lithuania by describing it as a meeting between the "French president and a Belarusian citizen".Svetlana Tikhanovskaya said she looked to President Macron because "he is one of the most powerful leaders in Europe" and because "he and France are famous for having played the role of mediators in many other cases".It was a flattering reference to the French leader's foreign policy activism, which currently appears to have gone up a notch or two. The UK and Canada's sanctions on Belarus, which include travel bans and asset freezes on senior officials, were jointly announced on Tuesday. "Today the UK and Canada have sent a clear message by imposing sanctions against Alexander Lukashenko's violent and fraudulent regime," UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said in a statement.He added: "We don't accept the results of this rigged election. "Canada stands in solidarity with the people of Belarus as they struggle to restore human rights and achieve democracy," he added.Meanwhile, Belarus' ministry of information announced it would suspend the independent online media outlet Tut.by from 1 October until 30 December.The website is one of the most popular news sources in the country, and it has been a major source of updates during the recent unrest for both Belarusians and foreign media.Belarus has been heavily criticised by rights bodies in the past for suppressing free speech and muzzling the press. Earlier this month, he secured a $1.5bn (£1.2bn) loan from Russia.Ms Tikhanovskaya claims to have won 60-70% in places where votes were properly counted.But Mr Lukashenko was sworn in for a sixth term at a secret ceremony last week, prompting mass street protests in the capital Minsk and elsewhere. The US and the 27 member states of the EU responded by saying they did not recognise Mr Lukashenko as the legitimate president.Many opposition figures are now in self-imposed exile in neighbouring countries amid a wave of arrests and detentions.Despite the crackdown, anti-government protests show no signs of diminishing.

The EU has also threatened to impose sanctions. "We will do our best as Europeans to help mediate," Mr Macron told reporters. "Our objective is for this mediation to begin in the next few days or weeks. "He spoke during a meeting with Ms Tikhanovskaya in Vilnius that was seen as a major show of support for the opposition figurehead. "[Mr Macron] supports the idea of mediation because he understands that powerful countries need to be involved to begin negotiations with Lukashenko," Ms Tikhanovskaya said. In addition to his Belarusian intervention, Mr Macron has also been banging government heads in Lebanon while at the same time talking tough on behalf of Greece against Turkey. A few months ago he was sponsoring peace talks for Ukraine.Historically, this is what France does. Not to get involved in the big issues on the European periphery would be to admit that France is no longer the country it once was. Whereas, with the UK leaving the EU, French foreign policy leadership is - in French eyes - more pertinent than ever.But on top of that, there is the Macron factor. "Today the UK and Canada have sent a clear message by imposing sanctions against Alexander Lukashenko's violent and fraudulent regime," UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said in a statement.He added: "We don't accept the results of this rigged election. We will hold those responsible for the thuggery deployed against the Belarusian people to account and we will stand up for our values of democracy and human rights.

Video app TikTok fails to remove online predators

Hundreds of sexually explicit comments have been found on videos posted by children as young as nine.While the company deleted the majority of these comments when they were reported, most users who posted them were able to remain on the platform, despite TikTok's rules against sexual messages directed at children.TikTok says that child protection is an "industry wide-challenge" and that promoting a "safe and positive app environment" remains the company's top priority.England's Children's Commissioner Anne Longfield says she will request a meeting with TikTok to discuss the findings of the BBC's investigation."I want children to be able to enjoy everything that the app can offer, but we need to make sure that those responsibilities are taken seriously," she says.TikTok has become hugely popular with teenagers. It allows people to post short videos of themselves lip-syncing and dancing to their favourite songs, performing short comedy skits or completing challenges.The company says it has more than 500 million monthly active users around the world, but TikTok refused to tell the BBC how many of those are in the UK. Over three months, BBC Trending collected hundreds of sexual comments posted on videos uploaded by teenagers and children. We reported the comments to TikTok using the same tools available to any user of the app.TikTok's community guidelines forbid users from using "public posts or private messages to harass underage users" and say that if the company becomes "aware of content that sexually exploits, targets, or endangers children" it may "alert law enforcement or report cases".While the majority of sexual comments were removed within 24 hours of being reported, TikTok still failed to remove a number of messages that were clearly inappropriate for children.And even though many of the comments themselves were taken down, the vast majority of accounts that had sent sexual messages were still active on the app.The BBC was also able to identity a number of users who, again and again, approached teenage girls online to post sexually explicit messages on their videos. "These are individuals who are using these platforms to try to get access in some way to young children," says Ms Longfield, the children's commissioner. While many users hide behind anonymous profiles to send disturbing messages, others (often adult men) use what appear to be their real names and photos and upload their own videos on the app.And while our investigation focused on sexually explicit comments, we also found instances where children were sent threatening or violent messages.Chris has a 10-year-old son who went on TikTok in January, without his parents' knowledge. One day, TikTok messages began popping up on his son's phone. "They were like 'do not ignore me', swearing... 'I know who you are and I'll come and get you'," Chris recalls.The sender was an adult male. While he had not included any sexual content in his messages, Chris wonders: "If [my son] had started engaging in conversation, what could have been next?"Chris has since deleted the app from his son's phone and informed his school of the incident."It's disgusting," he says. "TikTok's got a responsibility now and if people are getting on there and seeing messages like this should be contacting the police at the very least."Emily Steers and Lauren Kearns, from Northamptonshire, are both 15 years old. Together, they run a TikTok channel with more than a million followers."People come up to us and ask for pictures... It's really weird", Lauren says.They say most of the messages they get from their fans online are harmless, but among the hundreds of comments posted on their videos, we also found sexual messages.As part of our investigation, we reported one of them to TikTok, but after 24 hours the company had failed to take down the comment or remove the user who posted it."It is a bit worrying," says Emily's father, Mark. "When they do catch people saying bad things or sexual things, they should have the power to block them or actually take them away straightaway."More from BBC TrendingEarlier this year, TikTok was hit with a $5.7m (£4.3m) fine in the US after it was found to have illegally collected personal information of children under 13 who had been using the app.The case highlighted how easy it had become for young children to join TikTok, despite the company's terms of use which say that 13 is the minimum age to join the platform.As a result of the fine, TikTok has been asking some users in the US to verify their age by sending the company identification. In the course of our investigation, the BBC came across several accounts run by children under 13 - some as young as nine. TikTok has no plans to start verifying the age of users in the UK.In the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office told the BBC it is investigating TikTok, but did not provide further details about the focus of their investigation.And in India, a court ruling on Wednesday asked the government to ban TikTok because of concerns about "pornography" and child protection."We need to have robust age verification tools in place," says Damian Collins MP, chairman of the Commons Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee. "The age policies are meaningless if they don't have the ability to really check whether people are the age or not."We've been discussing content regulation with a number of different social media companies and will certainly be taking a good look at what's been happening at TikTok," he says.TikTok declined the BBC's request for an interview. In a statement, the company said: "We are committed to continuously enhancing our existing measures and introducing additional technical and moderation processes in our ongoing commitment to our users.""We take escalating actions ranging from restricting certain features up to banning account access, based on the frequency and severity of the reported content. In addition, we have multiple proactive approaches that look for potentially problematic behaviour and take action including terminating accounts that violate our Terms of Service." TikTok says it uses a combination of technology and human moderation to remove content. The company refused to say how many moderators it employs.The Children's Commissioner for England told the BBC that she will seek a meeting with TikTok to discuss the findings of our investigation. And she also says parents have a key role to play in keeping their children safe online."So much is often hid in the comments for many of these things and that's actually where the danger can lie," Anne Longfield says. "Be very proactive, complain about it to the company and demand action."If you would like advice on how to stay safe online, you can find it on BBC Own It (for children) and on the NSPCC (for parents).If you have been affected by any of the issues raised in this story, you can look for help and information on the BBC's Action Line.Do you have a story?

TikTok has no plans to start verifying the age of users in the UK.In the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office told the BBC it is investigating TikTok, but did not provide further details about the focus of their investigation.And in India, a court ruling on Wednesday asked the government to ban TikTok because of concerns about "pornography" and child protection. "We've been discussing content regulation with a number of different social media companies and will certainly be taking a good look at what's been happening at TikTok," he says.TikTok declined the BBC's request for an interview. The company refused to say how many moderators it employs.The Children's Commissioner for England told the BBC that she will seek a meeting with TikTok to discuss the findings of our investigation. "So much is often hid in the comments for many of these things and that's actually where the danger can lie," Anne Longfield says. "If you would like advice on how to stay safe online, you can find it on BBC Own It (for children) and on the NSPCC (for parents).If you have been affected by any of the issues raised in this story, you can look for help and information on the BBC's Action Line.Do you have a story?

Penyanyi punk dideportasi gara-gara 'menirukan Presiden Trump'

Peter Bywaters, dari kelompok musik Peter & The Test Tube Babies, mengaku dirinya ditangkap saat terbang menghadiri sebuah festival.Ia menuturkan diinterogasi selama enam jam oleh staf bea cukai dan perbatasan dan diperlihatkan foto dirinya berpakaian seperti Donald Trump dalam tur musik di Jerman tahun lalu.Namun, pejabat Bea Cukai dan Perbatasan AS mengatakan ia dideportasi karena visanya salah.Dalam sebuah pernyataan kepada Newsbeat BBC, juru bicara Jaime Ruiz mengatakan, "Klaim bahwa ia ditolak masuk ke Amerika Serikat karena mengejek presiden Amerika Serikat, itu sama sekali tidak benar."Itu keliru. Alasan ia ditolak masuk karena ia datang dengan visa yang salah."Setelah ditanyai oleh petugas bea cukai dan perbatasan di San Francisco, Peter Bywaters mengatakan ponsel serta paspornya disita, lalu dites DNA, difoto dan harus membuat pernyataan resmi sebelum kemudian digiring ke sebuah pesawat yang menuju ke London.Ia mengatakan kepada situs Team Rock, "Saya baru berada di sana 30 detik saat penjaga perbatasan memperlihatkan video dan bertanya, 'Apakah ini Anda?'""Mereka memperlihatkan tayangan penuh sebuah video dari tur Jerman tahun lalu, di situ saya berpakaian seperti Donald Trump yang tengah menghisap rokok palsu.""Dari situ semuanya merembet. Enam jam kemudian saya dikawal paksa untuk menuju tempat duduk di pesawat."Dalam penerbangan United Airlines selama 11 jam untuk kembali ke Inggris, ia ditolak ketika meminta minuman beralkohol, dan paspor serta ponselnya baru dikembalikan saat mendarat."Saya harap saya bisa tetap menjadi penyanyi Peter & The Test Tube Babies pada akhir tahun ini," katanya."Akankah Trump masih menjadi presiden pada akhir musim panas? Tur atau festival AS tidak akan pernah terjadi lagi."Anggota band Peter & The Test Tube Babies yang lainnya tampil di Perse Invasion Festival di Orange County, California, dengan bantuan beberapa penyanyi tamu pada hari Sabtu - termasuk Joey Bondage dari Narcoleptic Youth, Ron Conflict dari Lower Class Brats, Gabe Zander dari OY Scouts dan Mike Blank dari Blank 77.Band yang dibentuk pada tahun 1978 di East Sussex itu merilis album baru mereka pada bulan September.

Facebook under fire over secret teen research

According to the Wall Street Journal, its studies showed teenagers blamed Instagram for increased levels of anxiety and depression. Campaign groups and MPs have said it is proof the company puts profit first.Instagram said the research showed its "commitment to understanding complex and difficult issues".The Wall Street Journal's report, not disputed by Facebook, finds:In response to the WSJ report, Instagram published a lengthy blog defending its research. The WSJ story focused "on a limited set of findings and casts them in a negative light", it said, but the issue was far more complex."We've done extensive work around bullying, suicide and self-injury, and eating disorders, to help make Instagram a safe and supportive place for everyone," the company said in its post."Based on our research and feedback from experts, we've developed features so people can protect themselves from bullying, we've given everyone the option to hide 'like' counts and we've continued to connect people who may be struggling with local support organisations."It was working on prompts to encourage people repeatedly dwelling on negative subjects to look at different topics, it said.And it promised to be more transparent about its research in future.But National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children head of child safety online Andy Burrows said it was "appalling they chose to sit on their hands rather than act on evidence"."Instead of working to make the site safe, they've obstructed researchers, regulators, and government and run a PR [public-relations] and lobbying campaign in an attempt to prove the opposite."MP Damian Collins, who is chairing the UK parliamentary committee looking at how big technology should be regulated to protect users' safety, said it was time to "hold them to account"."The Wall Street Journal Facebook files investigation has exposed how the company, time and again, puts profit before harm," he said."Its own research is telling it that a large number of teen Instagram users say the service makes them feel worse about themselves - but the company just wants to make sure they keep coming back."The Online Safety Bill aims to give regulator Ofcom the power to fine companies that fail to act on content that could cause harm.US campaign group Fairplay (formerly the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood) said the news showed Instagram was no place for children."In a move straight out of big tobacco's playbook, Facebook downplayed the negative effects of its product and hid this research from the public and even from members of Congress who specifically asked for it," it said."And in the ultimate display of chutzpah and disregard for children, the company now wants to hook young kids on Instagram."Fairplay also called on the US government to demand Facebook released its research and blocked its plans to launch Instagram Youth.It was revealed earlier this year Facebook planned to create an advert-free Instagram for under-13s, designed to keep them safe.Jonathan Haidt, a social psychologist at New York University's Stern School of Business, told BBC Radio 4's Today programme he had met Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg to discuss the social network's effect on mental health."He was interested but he believes the research is ambiguous and does not point to harm," Mr Haidt said."Of course, now we know they had their own research which did suggest harm.""They had focus groups, online surveys, diary studies - so this was not one chance finding. "I wouldn't expect them to come forward the first time they find evidence of harm and say, 'Oh my God our product is harmful,' but if they have multiple sources of evidence and there is evidence outside the company too, then I think the picture is pretty clear."But, he added, it would take root-and-branch changes at the company to make any difference."The platform encourages children to post photos of themselves, to be raided by others including strangers around the world," he said."If this is the business model, there is no way to fix it."

Thai murder: David Miller died from head injuries

The bodies of David Miller, 24, from Jersey and Hannah Witheridge, 23, from Norfolk, were found on a beach on Koh Tao in September 2014.Burmese migrants Zaw Lin and Wai Phyo were convicted of the murders and sentenced to death in December.Jersey Coroner Mark Harris recorded a narrative verdict after outlining the murder case in Thailand.Earlier this month, Norfolk's coroner ruled Ms Witheridge was unlawfully killed.Mr Miller's mother Sue said after the inquest in St Helier: "We kept in contact with Dave via Skype during his time in Australia and Thailand. "His last call was on Skype from Koh Tao hours before his death. He described the island as paradise and showed us the view from his balcony using his phone and said he was going snorkelling that day. "We're so grateful for that last contact. I heard the news about the deaths on the radio. No names were mentioned but I knew it was Dave. "I tried to call him and sent him emails but my worst fears were confirmed by the arrival of the police."She added: "Dave was intelligent and hard-working. He brought light, energy and hope into our lives. He had a clear sense of justice. He was in the prime of his life and had so much ahead of him."Last year, the University of Leeds, where Mr Miller had been studying, presented his mother with his posthumous degree in civil and structural engineering.The convicted men are appealing against their convictions and death sentences for the murders.

1MDB: Ex-Goldman bankers and Jho Low face US charges

The Department of Justice alleges the men participated in a scheme that stole billions of dollars from Malaysia's development fund, 1MDB.One former Goldman banker pleaded guilty, the department said.The other banker has been arrested, while Mr Low remains at large. Mr Low, who prosecutors say had ties to government officials and acted as an informal adviser to the 1MDB fund, maintains his innocence, according to a statement issued by his legal team.He has previously denied charges filed in Malaysia, adding that it would be "impossible" for him to receive a fair trial there. "Mr. Low simply asks that the public keep an open mind regarding this case until all of the evidence comes to light, which he believes will vindicate him," the statement said. Goldman, which worked to raise money for the 1MDB fund, said on Thursday that it "continues to co-operate with all authorities investigating this matter".These are the first US criminal charges to surface in the 1MDB scandal. Authorities say billions of dollars were embezzled from the state fund to buy art, property, a private jet - and even to help finance the Wolf of Wall Street film starring Leonardo DiCaprio.The scandal has prompted investigations around the world and played a role in the election defeat earlier this year of Malaysia's former prime minister, Najib Razak, who is accused of pocketing $700m (£517m) from the fund he set up.He has since been charged with corruption, abuse of power and criminal breach of trust in Malaysia. His wife, Rosmah Mansor, has been charged with money laundering. Both deny any wrongdoing.US authorities have previously filed civil suits aimed at recovering luxury goods, cash and other items allegedly purchased with money from the fund.In this case, prosecutors say former Goldman bankers Tim Leissner and Roger Ng worked with Mr Low to bribe government officials to win 1MDB business for Goldman Sachs.Goldman had previously rejected Mr Low as a client, after compliance officials raised concerns about the source of his money.But in this case, the bankers, along with others at Goldman, worked to conceal Mr Low's involvement, prosecutors say.Ultimately, the bankers worked on three bond offerings in 2012 and 2013 that raised about $6.5bn for the fund and earned Goldman $600m, the indictment says.The money was supposed to support development projects, but prosecutors say the three men "conspired to launder" more than $2.7bn through the US financial system.They allegedly used this money to pay bribes and "for the personal benefit of themselves and their relatives".Mr Low, who was charged earlier in Malaysia, has repeatedly declared his innocence. He has called the Malaysian charges political.Mr Leissner, who served as Goldman's South East Asia chairman and a participating managing director, has pleaded guilty to conspiring to launder money and violate US anti-bribery laws.Mr Leissner, who left Goldman in February 2016, has been ordered to forfeit $43.7m.Mr Ng was a managing director at Goldman until his departure in May 2014. He was arrested in Malaysia on Thursday. The BBC has not yet been able to contact a lawyer representing him.

Renewable energy: UK expected to miss 2020 targets

The firm has produced UK future energy scenarios covering four different approaches in policy.Even in the most environmentally minded scenario, the UK is projected to fail in its target of producing 15% of total energy from renewables.The government no longer claims the 2020 target will be hit but a spokesman said the UK was making good progress.The National Grid also says the UK will not achieve its own independently set long-term CO2 reduction plans unless tougher policies are imposed very soon.The Climate Change Act mandates emissions cuts of 80% by 2050.The government spokesman said the UK was still committed to the act, and last week ministers announced a world-leading interim step towards that goal. But its advisers, the Committee on Climate Change, pointed to a huge mismatch between ministers' aspirations and their policies.The National Grid's report says Britain's progress on wind and solar-powered electricity has been quicker than some people expected.But the rate of progress towards electric and hydrogen cars needs to almost treble (from 15 terrawatt hours (TWh) to 40TWh) to meet the EU 2020 target.And the uptake of clean heating systems like heat pumps is also a massive challenge - needing to increase from 35 - 95 TWh.On National Grid's low-ambition scenario, the UK will miss the targets by nine years. Even the greenest scenario only reaches the targets by 2022.The renewables targets are legally binding and the EU may wish to punish nations that fail to meet them.The UK's energy system is closely bound to the EU in many ways, and Britain benefits from being able to import electricity through undersea cables. It is impossible at the moment to say how links will change after the UK voted to leave the EU in the 23 June referendum. Whatever the UK's relationship with the EU, Britain's energy system will still have to follow the Climate Change Act.The National Grid report says three technologies are needed to ensure a cost-effective path towards its goals - 22 gigawatts (GW) of nuclear, 100GW of renewables and 20GW of fossil fuel generation with carbon capture and storage technology in 2050.A spokesman told BBC News: "The 2050 targets are still achievable, but we need much more momentum. "The government has to change the trajectory or we are going to fail. We need to learn our lessons from where things have gone wrong so far."The government is struggling to build nuclear plants and scrapped a fund for carbon capture technology after Prime Minister David Cameron previously said it was "crucial" for the UK. He later said the technology was "not working" and complained that costs had not come down as expected.Follow Roger on Twitter @rharrabin

谷歌帝国的最新掌门人桑达·皮采的履历和最新职责

谷歌联合创办人布林和佩奇宣布退居二线，而谷歌王国的大权全部交给第三把手，印裔美籍“70后”皮采。从印度钦奈的清贫之家，到谷歌帝国掌门人的办公室，皮采47年的人生故事被称为“美国梦”的实例和印度在国际科技界的地位的明证。他主政期间谷歌推出了不少重磅产品，也曾因中国市场战略和其他问题招惹非议。谷歌联合创办人布林和佩奇宣布退居二线，而谷歌王国的大权全部交给第三把手，印裔美籍“70后”皮采。从印度钦奈的清贫之家，到谷歌帝国掌门人的办公室，皮采47年的人生故事被称为“美国梦”的实例和印度在国际科技界的地位的明证。他主政期间谷歌推出了不少重磅产品，也曾因中国市场战略和其他问题招惹非议。1972年，皮采出生在印度海滨城市钦奈（Chennai，原名马德拉斯）一个普通家庭，家境较窘迫。他和父母、弟弟一家4口挤在一套只有两间房间的公寓，兄弟俩晚上在客厅打地铺。家里没有电视，没有汽车。皮采12岁时家里才装了电话。很多年后，皮采已成为印度人民的骄傲的时候，印度媒体披露说，他从小就懂得节俭、勤奋，学习很刻苦。皮采在中学是学霸，但不是书呆子 — 他是学校板球队队长，率领队友们一路过关斩将，夺得地区大赛冠军。他父亲是当地英国通用电器公司的工程师，当年每天下班回家后会跟儿子聊公司的事，包括遇到的苦难。他记得桑达记忆特别好，尤其擅长记电话号码。后来，皮采毫无悬念地进了印度理工学院卡拉格普尔分校（IIT Kharagpur），学习冶金工程专业。这个学校是印度政府组建的工程技术高等学府，有七个分校在全国各地，被称为印度“科学皇冠上的瑰宝”，是印度最顶尖的工程教育与研究机构。这个学校的IT毕业生遍布世界各地，很多人汇聚在美国硅谷。《印度时报》引述皮采上大学时的一位老师说，这孩子是那一届最聪颖最出色的一个。他的妻子安嘉莉·皮采（Anjiali Pichai）是他大学同班同学。1972年，皮采出生在印度海滨城市钦奈（Chennai，原名马德拉斯）一个普通家庭，家境较窘迫。他和父母、弟弟一家4口挤在一套只有两间房间的公寓，兄弟俩晚上在客厅打地铺。家里没有电视，没有汽车。皮采12岁时家里才装了电话。很多年后，皮采已成为印度人民的骄傲的时候，印度媒体披露说，他从小就懂得节俭、勤奋，学习很刻苦。皮采在中学是学霸，但不是书呆子 —

Pichai）是他大学同班同学。印度网站Bollywoodshaadis.com在讲皮采夫妇罗曼史的时候直呼他俩证明，真正的爱情经得起时间和现实的考验。皮采曾对媒体说过当年在学校跟女友约会很不方便，因为没有手机。“到女生宿舍楼去找她，得从正门进去，在前厅等人进去把她叫出来。通常那些人会高声喊，安嘉莉，桑达来啦！那可不是什么令人愉快的经历。”大学毕业后，皮采拿到美国斯坦福大学的奖学金。飞美国的机票价钱超过了父亲一年的工资。最后全家设法把他送到了美国。他那时口袋空瘪，穷学生一枚。而女友安嘉莉则留在印度，两人相隔万里，曾经６个月没有通过话，但相思不断。后来安嘉莉也去了美国，这才结束了两地相思之苦。皮采在一家半导体公司找到了工作，有了稳定收入，觉得可以成家了。在征得姑娘父母同意之后，他向安嘉莉求婚，姑娘一口答应。印度媒体还声称要不是妻子，皮采可能早就被其他公司挖走了，也就没有今日谷歌和Alphabet掌门人的故事了。微软曾经想招皮采去当CEO，推特和雅虎也都找过他，但安嘉莉说，别心神不定，就留在谷歌。他听了妻子的，没走，一直做到今天。印度网站Bollywoodshaadis.com在讲皮采夫妇罗曼史的时候直呼他俩证明，真正的爱情经得起时间和现实的考验。皮采曾对媒体说过当年在学校跟女友约会很不方便，因为没有手机。“到女生宿舍楼去找她，得从正门进去，在前厅等人进去把她叫出来。通常那些人会高声喊，安嘉莉，桑达来啦！那可不是什么令人愉快的经历。”大学毕业后，皮采拿到美国斯坦福大学的奖学金。飞美国的机票价钱超过了父亲一年的工资。最后全家设法把他送到了美国。他那时口袋空瘪，穷学生一枚。而女友安嘉莉则留在印度，两人相隔万里，曾经６个月没有通过话，但相思不断。后来安嘉莉也去了美国，这才结束了两地相思之苦。皮采在一家半导体公司找到了工作，有了稳定收入，觉得可以成家了。在征得姑娘父母同意之后，他向安嘉莉求婚，姑娘一口答应。印度媒体还声称要不是妻子，皮采可能早就被其他公司挖走了，也就没有今日谷歌和Alphabet掌门人的故事了。微软曾经想招皮采去当CEO，推特和雅虎也都找过他，但安嘉莉说，别心神不定，就留在谷歌。他听了妻子的，没走，一直做到今天。皮采2004年加入谷歌。他的技术天才在那里显然得到了发挥。他参与、负责研发的重磅产品包括谷歌浏览器Chrome，还有安卓手机操作系统。安卓是目前世界上用户最多的手机操作系统。在同事眼里，皮采性格温和，人缘很好，为人处世比较周全，软件开发员尤其喜欢他。到最新任命为止，他的履历表上最主要的职责描述都是围绕谷歌的核心业务，包括搜索引擎、浏览器等等。新产品开发，有些成功，有些失败；市场推广，有的地方成功，有的地方麻烦；与世界各地政府的关系，有好有坏。皮采2004年加入谷歌。他的技术天才在那里显然得到了发挥。他参与、负责研发的重磅产品包括谷歌浏览器Chrome，还有安卓手机操作系统。安卓是目前世界上用户最多的手机操作系统。在同事眼里，皮采性格温和，人缘很好，为人处世比较周全，软件开发员尤其喜欢他。到最新任命为止，他的履历表上最主要的职责描述都是围绕谷歌的核心业务，包括搜索引擎、浏览器等等。新产品开发，有些成功，有些失败；市场推广，有的地方成功，有的地方麻烦；与世界各地政府的关系，有好有坏。谷歌和中国的关系比较复杂。2006年4月谷歌中国成立，其后4年里通过设在北京的服务器向中国大陆用户提供服务。2010年，谷歌公司因内容审查问题与中国政府发生分歧，于3月关闭中国版网页搜索服务，转用香港域名（www.google.com.hk）及服务器提供简体中文搜索引擎服务，其他服务继续由google.cn运行。2016年6月，上任不到一年的谷歌CEO皮采在南加州一次行业大会上表示，谷歌面向全球，希望为世界各地的用户提供服务。至于中国市场，需要跟北京方面谈判，“如果能妥善处理相关事宜，则谷歌非常希望能重返中国。”同年12月，谷歌开发员大会在北京和上海举办，谷歌开发员中国大陆网站开通。2017年5月，谷歌与中国政府联合举办乌镇围棋峰会，12月宣布在北京设谷歌人工智能（AI）中心。外界认为这标志着谷歌重返中国。2018年8月，网媒The Intercept披露谷歌正在秘密研发的自我审查版搜索软件，项目冠名“蜻蜓”。《纽约时报》报道称1千多名谷歌员工就此联署公开信，要求公司向员工公布项目详情，以便员工能够做出“道德选择”。同年12月，谷歌在内外压力下放弃了“蜻蜓”研发。谷歌和中国的关系比较复杂。2006年4月谷歌中国成立，其后4年里通过设在北京的服务器向中国大陆用户提供服务。2010年，谷歌公司因内容审查问题与中国政府发生分歧，于3月关闭中国版网页搜索服务，转用香港域名（www.google.com.hk）及服务器提供简体中文搜索引擎服务，其他服务继续由google.cn运行。2016年6月，上任不到一年的谷歌CEO皮采在南加州一次行业大会上表示，谷歌面向全球，希望为世界各地的用户提供服务。至于中国市场，需要跟北京方面谈判，“如果能妥善处理相关事宜，则谷歌非常希望能重返中国。”同年12月，谷歌开发员大会在北京和上海举办，谷歌开发员中国大陆网站开通。2017年5月，谷歌与中国政府联合举办乌镇围棋峰会，12月宣布在北京设谷歌人工智能（AI）中心。外界认为这标志着谷歌重返中国。2018年8月，网媒The

成立于2015年，是谷歌内部重组的产物。机构重组后，谷歌成了子公司，负责搜索、地图、YouTube、浏览器（Chrome）和安卓手机平台等业务。原来谷歌旗下的一些其他业务地位得到提升，跟谷歌一样成为Alphabet 的子公司。所以，皮采的更新版职责清单应该说没有实质性改变，从无人驾驶的汽车、飞机到人工智能和城市智能社区，根子都在谷歌：2018年12月，Waymo 的机器人出租车在亚利桑那州凤凰城投入运营。公司数据显示，自动驾驶出租车用户大约有一千多人，这些机器人出租车在公路上行驶了超过一千万英里。为这家公司工作的有医药专家、分子生物学家和遗传基因专家。2019年10月，它获准在加拿大多伦多一个废弃的城区建“智能城市”。据悉这片区域的面积不到5万平方米，Sidewalk Labs 申请的面积将近77万平方米。另外，这个实验区里搜集到的全部数据都属于公共资产，必须以相应的方式处理。这个公司最著名的产品就是击败世界围棋冠军的人工智能AlphaGo（阿尔法围棋手）。2019年10月，它的另一款人工智能，AlphaStar，在电竞游戏“星际争霸II：自由之翼”（又译星海争霸，Starcraft 2）中击败两名人类职业选手。公司希望这些人工智能产品能够帮助人类开发更多最终有利于人类的其他人工智能工具。最初的服务项目包括用无人机给堪培拉的100户市民送外卖、咖啡和药品。这款无人机从2014年开始测试，因为噪音大，曾招致当地居民抱怨。公司表示会继续和各方保持对话。谷歌 X 实验室 2011年开始这项研究，2013年在新西兰展开实验，2018年成为Alphabet 子公司。谷歌曾表示希望籍此建立一个覆盖澳洲和南美洲的热气球信号传送网；那些地区有很多地方联网较困难。最初，Loon曾经在秘鲁和波多黎各让当地手机公司免费使用它的热气球，以便为地面信号塔发生故障或被自然灾害毁坏的地区提供无线上网服务。但是，每一个热气球都有网球场那么大，而寿命只有5个月。还有些地方的民航管理当局对这种热气球的安全隐患表示担忧。出任谷歌母公司Alphabet的CEO，意味着皮采的岗位职责清单上增加了很多内容。Alphabet

Дайджест: третья ночь протестов в Беларуси; Байден выбрал себе вице-президента

Минувшим вечером и ночью акции протеста в Минске переместились из центра города, который практически полностью заблокировали силовики, на окраины - в микрорайоны Каменная Горка, Серебрянка и Уручье, а также на проспекты Дзержинского и Рокоссовского.В некоторых местах протестующие пытались строить баррикады, но их сразу же разрушал ОМОН и проводил жесткие задержания. Особенно активно силовики работали во дворах - они догоняли людей и били дубинками. По людям, которые кричали силовикам с балконов, иногда начинали стрелять резиновыми пулями.В ходе протестов по всей стране уже задержаны тысячи человек, среди них несколько десятков журналистов.Во вторник из иолятора в Минске отпустили специального корреспондента издания "Медуза" Максима Солопова - о его судьбе не было ничего известно на протяжении почти двух суток.Также во вторник стали появляться сообщения, что силовики начали нападать на работающих в Минске журналистов: их задерживали, били, разбивали им камеры и изымали флешки с отснятым материалом.Нападению подверглась и съемочная группа Би-би-си: мужчина в черной униформе без опознавательных знаков потребовал аккредитацию, после чего сорвал карточку с шеи корреспондента, вырвал из рук камеру и попытался сломать ее.Еще двое журналистов Би-би-си попытались убедить силовиков вернуть карточку аккредитации, в ответ двое из них начали бить оператора и наносить удары по его камере.пишетБелорусская оппозиция де-факто приступает к созданию правительства в изгнании, а также будет добиваться повторения на родине венесуэльского сценария - то есть признания мировым сообществом легитимным президентом Белоруссии Светланы Тихановской, а не Александра Лукашенко, "Мы обращаемся к международному сообществу. Мы призвали созвать конференцию, саммит Евросоюза, с приглашением туда всех заинтересованных, прежде всего, конечно, соседей Белоруссии. Там мы представим документы о фальсификациях, о том, как проходил избирательный процесс.

"Мы будем формировать экономический блок, силовой блок... У нас есть много людей из силовых органов, которые пошли за нами в соответствии с совестью и законом.

Даже после распада Советского Союза и обретения независимости Беларусь, в отличие от других стран, не стала развивать демократические прогрессы и стремиться к сближению с Западом.Вместо этого Беларусь стала последним европейским бастионом коммунизма в лице Александра Лукашенко, который возглавляет страну с 1994 года.

Примечательно, что никто не выражал из-за этого радости. Избиратели, которые часами стояли в очередях к избирательным участкам, чтобы выгнать его из президентского кресла, вышли протестовать на улицы Минска и других городов, где им противостоял ОМОН.

Methane leak not a catastrophe, says gas company

SoCal Gas said it was deeply sorry for what happened and is working to stop the leak, though it could take weeks.It says the gas being pumped into the atmosphere, which includes methane, is not a threat to public safety."I wouldn't term it that," Mike Mizrahi of SoCal Gas told the BBC, when asked if it was an environmental catastrophe.The leak began in October in a vast underground storage field in Porter Ranch, on the outskirts of Los Angeles. The company hopes to fix it by late March.On Wednesday California Governor Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency and called for "all necessary and viable actions" to stop it.More than 10,000 people have been moved from their homes and many people have reported nausea and headaches.A further estimated 7,000 are now in the evacuation process, according to SoCal Gas.How did the leak start?A broken injection-well pipe about 500 ft (152.4m) below the surface is thought to be to blame.Why hasn't it been fixed?Repair work has been slow due to the nature of the leak.What might the environmental effect be?Methane - the main component of natural gas - is a very strong greenhouse gas, capable of trapping solar radiation in the atmosphere.The BBC's Matt McGrath says the large amounts of powerful gas that are leaking could have a significant impact on climate change.What's behind California's 'health catastrophe'?"We're anticipating by late February to late March somewhere in that time frame we will be able to intercept the well at about 8700 feet" and stop the leak, Mr Mizrahi said. He said they regret the leak but "can't verify the amount of gas" that has come from it."We feel terrible about this. These are our neighbours and our apology is sincere and heartfelt and we are doing everything we can to meet the needs of our residents." The stench comes and goes but when the wind is blowing in the wrong direction, the fumes can be overwhelming.Residents of this smart, gated-community about 30 minutes from downtown Los Angeles are literally sick of it.SoCal Gas insists the gas leaking from Aliso Canyon in the hills above the town does not pose an "imminent threat to public safety," but people here are still worried - about their health and the impact on the environment.Residents have complained of nausea, nosebleeds and worse, with some saying they were so sick they had to go to hospital. They point out cars, outdoor furniture and houses which have been marked with brown, oily spots.There is a feeling here that the leak has not been taken as seriously as other environmental disasters because the gases are invisible to the naked eye.The declaration of a state of emergency may be welcome but here in Los Angeles many people say it has come far too late.Tim O'Connor, a lawyer with the Environmental Defense Fund, has called it "an environmental and public health catastrophe," said ."In terms of timelines this is going to surpass the gulf oil problem by a mile."It's the same amount of pollution as 4.5 million cars put out every day, he said.

Schools given Dropbox guidance after Safe Harbour warning

The guidance follows an email sent to educators in a London borough by their IT chief, who advised them to stop using Dropbox and other cloud products.That warning followed a ruling by Europe's top court, which declared a system used to authorise personal data transfers to the US was invalid. Now, the advice is to hold fire."There's no new and immediate threat to individuals' personal data that's suddenly arisen that we need to act quickly to prevent," the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) told the BBC."Organisations, including schools, are right to be keeping up to date on the law, but we're not advising people to rush to make changes at this stage."It has been three weeks since the European Court of Justice ruled that US firms signed up to the Safe Harbour scheme could no longer be automatically considered to provide "adequate protection" to personal data they had received from the EU.The judgement came in light of leaks by whistleblower Edward Snowden that suggest the NSA and other US authorities engage in mass surveillance of data held by US tech giants.Some companies have got around this problem by drawing up special "model clause" contracts that set out the US recipients' privacy obligations.However, confusion over what is and is not permitted caused Lewisham Council's information and communications technology chief to email his colleagues last week."If you still use Dropbox as a quick-win cloud storage solution for your school please consider that recent changes in rulings regarding the validity of the Safe Harbour Agreement means that data stored outside the EU is now officially at risk for EU based Data Owners - ie schools in the UK!" wrote Neil Iles."Please do consider the prompt migration of your data away from Dropbox or other non-EU cloud data services (watch out for iPad Apps that store data in the cloud too!) Currently your data and your ability to demonstrate compliance with the Data Protection Act are at risk by using these non-EU services."ICO spokesman David Murphy acknowledged this was a "complicated area of law" but said "we won't be taking hurried action whilst there's so much uncertainty around."The watchdog provides further advice in a blog and promises additional guidance soon.A spokeswoman for Lewisham Council noted that it had previously advised schools not to use Dropbox or other similar cloud-based storage services and stood by its position.The term refers to an agreement struck by the EU and US, that came into effect in 2000.It was designed to provide a "streamlined and cost-effective" way for US firms to get data from Europe without breaking its rules.The EU forbids personal data from being transferred to and processed in parts of the world that do not provide "adequate" privacy protections.So, to make it easier for US firms - including the tech giants - to function, Safe Harbour was introduced to let them self-certify that they are carrying out the required steps.More than 5,000 US companies made use of the arrangement to facilitate data transfers.However, they have now had to change their practices following the ECJ's ruling.The EU and US are negotiating to introduce new rules, dubbed "Safer Harbour" to address the situation.Read more about the topicA spokeswoman for the Department of Education referred concerned school IT managers to its existing guidelines about using about the use of cloud software services."Data security legislation is under review by the European Commission in the light of recent developments," she said."Guidance will be updated depending on the outcome of the review."For its part, Dropbox has also sought to reassure schools and other customers."We were one of the first, and are still one of the only, major cloud service providers to achieve ISO 27018 certification - a global standard for cloud privacy and data protection," a spokesman said."Along with the rest of the industry, we eagerly await guidance from the European Commission on the revised Safe Harbour framework, which will help determine the most effective long-term solutions."The BBC understands Apple is not aware of any schools having raised concerns about the issue with it.

Jacarezinho: favela palco de massacre nasceu como quilombo, lutou contra a ditadura e hoje é refém da violência

A região na Zona Norte do Rio de Janeiro abrigou negros fugitivos durante a escravidão, fez parte de um grande polo industrial no século 20 e ficou marcada no decorrer dos anos pela sua efervescência cultural e sua mobilização política.O líder comunitário Rumba Gabriel acompanhou de perto a operação que aconteceu no dia 6 de abril, quando 29 pessoas morreram. "Ainda somos objeto, ainda somos resto", afirma. "Foi um dia muito complicado, principalmente para mim, que estou nessa luta há muito tempo." Morador da comunidade desde que nasceu, há 66 anos, Rumba Gabriel é jornalista, teólogo e é uma liderança local há mais de três décadas. Criou o site de notícias Portal Favelas e atualmente faz parte da Comissão de Direitos Humanos da Assembleia Legislativa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (Alerj). A trajetória pessoal e política de Rumba se entrelaça com a história do próprio Jacarezinho e os rumos tomados pela comunidade.A região na Zona Norte do Rio de Janeiro abrigou negros fugitivos durante a escravidão, fez parte de um grande polo industrial no século 20 e ficou marcada no decorrer dos anos pela sua efervescência cultural e sua mobilização política.O líder comunitário Rumba Gabriel acompanhou de perto a operação que aconteceu no dia 6 de abril, quando 29 pessoas morreram.

A trajetória pessoal e política de Rumba se entrelaça com a história do próprio Jacarezinho e os rumos tomados pela comunidade.O pesquisador Jonas Abreu aponta no estudo "A invenção da favela industrial: pistas da história, memória e identidade do Jacarezinho" que a formação do Jacarezinho como o conhecemos hoje começou um pouco antes da década de 1920. O território era parte da comarca do Engenho Novo, próximo do Engenho de Dentro e Engenho da Rainha. As primeiras ocupações aconteceram na parte alta do morro. Segundo Rumba, havia um motivo para isso: a necessidade de se proteger. "O Jacarezinho cresce de cima para baixo porque aqueles primeiros moradores ainda estavam desconfiados dos capitães do mato", diz ele.Capitão do mato era um serviçal de fazenda encarregado de capturar escravizados que fugiam. Rumba conta que, antes de ser uma favela, o Jacarezinho abrigou negros que haviam fugido de fazendas próximas. Por isso, pode ser considerado um "quilombo urbano". "Já havia negros ali antes dos anos 1920, fugidios da Serra do Mateus, lá na Boca do Mato. Quando o padre Alexandre Língua foi construir o santuário Nossa Senhora da Conceição no Engenho Novo, anos depois, muitas ossadas de escravos foram encontradas", diz Rumba. Mas é dos anos 1920 em diante que o Jacarezinho começa a se consolidar como uma comunidade. A área ocupada inicialmente era de posse da família de Getúlio Vargas, que cedeu as terras para aqueles moradores. "Após a abolição, esse local foi apropriado pela família Vargas. No Brasil, a classe dominante não compra terreno, ganha. Dizem que a família Vargas doou para a favela do Jacarezinho crescer, mas como se doa algo que não se comprou?", questiona Rumba. Já o território para onde a favela começa a se expandir, na parte de baixo, abrigava empresas como a Concórdia e a Fábrica Unida de Tecidos, que surgiram do arrendamento de uma antiga fazenda do local. O fluxo migratório para favelas da Zona Norte do Rio aumentou à medida que a indústria se expandiu no país. O Jacarezinho cresceu em função de fábricas que se instalavam no entorno, como a fabricante de fósforos Cruzeiro, a gigante americana General Eletric e a Cisper, especializada em vidros, e também por causa da linha férrea que atravessava o local.Além disso, o Jacarezinho não era distante do centro do Rio e de localidades vizinhas que também se industrializavam, como Maria da Graça e o bairro do Jacaré, o que estimulou a chegada de moradores. Primeiro, vindos do centro e da região portuária do Rio. Posteriormente, do noroeste do Estado e de cidades rurais de Espírito Santo e Minas Gerais. No decorrer de alguns anos, a comunidade que já foi conhecida como Morro do Padre Paulo e Morro da Titica, antes de virar o Jacarezinho nos anos 1940 - e chegou a ser considerada a maior favela do Rio. A comunidade ganhou seu nome atual por causa do rio Jacaré, que atravessa o local. Houve ainda um novo impulso de expansão na favela em 1961, quando o então governador Carlos Lacerda decretou a criação do Complexo Industrial do Jacaré, no bairro vizinho ao Jacarezinho, incentivando a construção de mais fábricas na região. Foi um período fértil para a favela. Os moradores tinham emprego, já que as indústrias se aproveitavam daquela mão de obra barata. Além disso, florescia uma época de efervescência política na comunidade.

Além disso, florescia uma época de efervescência política na comunidade. Rumba se tornou um líder comunitário nos anos 1980. Naquele momento, o Jacarezinho já era conhecido por sua organização política e social. Ele diz que uma das primeiras famílias que chegaram no Jacarezinho trazia consigo a Tia Andreza, personagem icônica da favela. Uma "negra ousada" que chamava atenção por seu interesse social."A principal preocupação dela era de alfabetizar. Pegava caixotes de madeiras, de feira e botava na subida da comunidade. Fez a primeira escolinha a céu aberto, antes da lei do Mobral (Movimento Brasileiro de Alfabetização). Ela também fundou a primeira escola de samba do Jacaré." Desde a década de 1940, moradores tiveram que se unir, com o apoio das igrejas da região - especialmente a Nossa Senhora da Conceição, liderada pelo padre Nelson Carlos del Monaco, e mais tarde a ordem dos padres salesianos - para não serem despejados pelas autoridades que procuravam desocupar terrenos ocupados ilegalmente. Mas é nos anos 1960 que a movimentação política ganha mais organização. Durante a ditadura militar, o Jacarezinho chegou a ser apelidado de "Moscouzinho". O antropólogo João Costa Vargas, professor da Universidade da Califórnia, nos Estados Unidos, aponta no estudo "Apartheid brasileiro: raça e segregação residencial no Rio de Janeiro" que esse apelido refletia o grande número de grupos de esquerda e organizações políticas clandestinas que operavam na área, como o MR-8. No Jacarezinho, elas ficavam protegidas por uma vantagem geográfica fruto da topografia ondulada, que proporcionava fácil vigilância dos pontos mais altos da comunidade. Além disso, o labirinto de ruas estreitas tornava o acesso difícil aos carros da polícia, o que é realidade até hoje. Foi esse contexto que estimulou lideranças comunitárias a se lançarem no jogo político. "No período que antecedeu a redemocratização, tínhamos uma presença intensa de ativistas políticos e trabalhadores sindicalizados. Durante a ditadura, havia aqui um aparelho que abrigava revolucionários e uma presença muito intensa de sindicatos. Nessa época, o território cresceu muito e ficou rico na politização, gente que saía para o enfrentamento com o objetivo de trazer projetos pra cá", conta Rumba. Mas toda essa organização na comunidade foi se perdendo ao mesmo tempo em que o Brasil se redemocratizava. "O Jacarezinho chegou a abrigar diretórios do PDT e do PT. Mas quando esses partidos adentraram o poder, a maioria dos militantes e dos sindicalistas foram embora. Como se dissessem: chega de lutar, estamos dentro do poder. Foi um erro clássico, um abandono, ficamos órfãos disso. A educação, que já não era boa, foi sucateada, assim como a saúde. O Jacarezinho se tornou um território de analfabetos didáticos e políticos." Rumba se tornou um líder comunitário nos anos 1980.

O Jacarezinho se tornou um território de analfabetos didáticos e políticos." Nos anos 1970 e 1980, o Jacarezinho viu também a expansão do tráfico de drogas. Segundo João Costa Vargas, jovens chefes do tráfico detinham poder de vida e morte no local e desafiavam abertamente a polícia e o Estado. No caso do Jacarezinho, foi a facção criminosa Comando Vermelho que tomou conta da área. "Em um primeiro momento, havia uma política de assistencialismo. Isso fez com que os moradores até vissem os bandidos com outros olhos. Mas, quando chegou o tráfico de cocaína, começou o verdadeiro desastre da favela", diz Rumba. Esse contexto também faz crescer o aumento nos embates do tráfico com a polícia, o que degradou ainda mais a situação da comunidade. O tráfico de drogas e a violência na comunidade, assim como em outras regiões pobres do Rio, cresce junto com o desemprego nos anos 1980. A historiadora Cristiane Muniz Thiago aponta na dissertação de mestrado "Memória e trabalho no bairro do Jacaré" que uma série de empresas no entorno do Jacarezinho foram à falência ou reduziram drasticamente seu quadro de funcionários nesse período. É o caso da General Electric, que empregava a maior parte dos moradores da favela que faziam parte do mercado de trabalho formal. A empresa fechou em 2008, após mais de 20 anos de declínio.

Rumba Gabriel começou sua trajetória tendo como principal objetivo expor a cultura da favela do Jacarezinho. "A cultura negra no Jacarezinho é muito forte. Chegamos a ter mais de 30 terreiros nesse território. Havia muitos compositores, tínhamos ladainha e gurufins, como eram chamados os velórios dos mortos nos barracos. As famílias reunidas cantavam samba e depois transportavam os corpos para o cemitério", conta. O pai era pedreiro e ladrilheiro, profissão de grande parte dos trabalhadores na época, e também um grande compositor. "Parceiro de Cartola, Nelson Cavaquinho, Carlos Cachaça e Zé Ketti", diz. Foi dele que Antônio Carlos Gabriel, nascido em 1954, herdou o apelido de Rumba, um estilo de dança caribenho semelhante ao jeito como seu pai rebolava. Sua atuação política começou na segunda metade dos anos 1980, após uma experiência trabalhando como mensageiro no Jornal do Brasil. "Sempre fomos um povo muito alegre. Sofredor, mas alegre. Mas nunca aceitamos esse desprezo que o Estado nos dá. Por isso, decidi fundar o Centro Cultural do Jacarezinho, em 1992. Depois, em 1999, fiz uma cooperativa de trabalhadores, porque não adianta cultura sem trabalho", diz. A questão do emprego era importante porque naquela época a indústria na região estava sendo desmantelada. "Os trabalhadores começaram a ficar sem emprego, as suas profissões ficaram obsoletas. O avanço tecnológico estava chegando, e eles não suportaram. O que já era muito ruim para a comunidade ficou pior", conta. Um dos projetos mais relevantes de Rumba foi feito em 2001 e batizado de "Condomínio Favela". A ideia consistia em instalar na comunidade portões e câmeras, que se popularizaram em condomínios fechados à época, para vigiar a atuação do tráfico e da polícia. Esses portões ostentavam a frase irônica: "Sorria, policial. Você está sendo filmado." "Há uma cultura do medo instalada nas comunidades para que não haja manifestação, para que nós não mostremos o que acontece no nosso território", explica. "Quando você coloca uma câmera, seja onde for, ela vai mostrar a realidade. Foi justamente a câmera que fez com que o policial que matou o George Floyd, nos Estados Unidos, recebesse uma sentença de 40 anos." Apesar de não ter durado muito tempo, o "Condomínio Favela" gerou muitas reações na opinião pública e colocou em pauta as condições da atuação policial e do tráfico na favela do Jacarezinho. Além disso, o projeto rendeu a Rumba um convite dos Panteras Negras, organização socialista e antirracista dos Estados Unidos, para visitar o país. "Fui para a Universidade do Texas fazer pesquisa, aprendi com Angela Davis e outros ativistas. Eles sabiam que eu podia morrer e me chamaram para mostrar coisas que eu poderia trazer de volta pra cá." Um desses aprendizados foi o de que é preciso lutar junto com a comunidade. "Não quero descaracterizar a luta dos movimentos negros do Brasil, mas aqui luta-se separado. Há uma ausência de negros que foram para a academia e depois foram embora. Pularam a cerca, já que não abrem os portões, mas ficaram lá. Não pularam de volta. Eu pulei de volta." O objetivo de Rumba, agora, é trazer de volta para a comunidade o mesmo apetite político pelo qual ela já foi caracterizada. "Muitos me perguntam: Rumba, por que você ainda vive assim? Não tenho carro, grana e ainda moro na favela. Mas não abandono porque sou descendente de Zumbi, não consigo ver meu povo sofrer. Não tenho medo da bala."Rumba Gabriel começou sua trajetória tendo como principal objetivo expor a cultura da favela do Jacarezinho. "A cultura negra no Jacarezinho é muito forte.

De 2013 a 2019, porém, o número de mortes decorrentes de intervenções policiais no Rio de Janeiro aumentou ano a ano, segundo dados do Fórum Brasileiro de Segurança Pública, como mostra a série histórica abaixo. Já em 2020, de acordo com dados do Instituto de Segurança Pública (ISP), as intervenções policiais deixaram um total de 1245 vítimas.O número, apesar de muito alto, é menor que o total de vítimas fatais dos dois anos anteriores. Em 2019, foram 1.814, e, em 2018, 1.534. Sobre esses dados, o ISP destaca, no entanto, a decisão do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) que proibiu operações policiais no Rio de Janeiro durante a pandemia de covid-19. Rumba acredita que o projeto das UPPs não deu certo. "Cadê a política social? Como você vem com uma UPP e não vem com política social?", questiona. Após a operação do último 6 de maio, que deixou 28 pessoas mortas no Jacarezinho, o governador do Rio de Janeiro Cláudio Castro (PSC) anunciou uma reformulação nas UPPs, que atuam em 28 favelas da capital, a partir do segundo semestre. A promessa é mais uma vez fazer com que o Estado tenha uma presença maior nas comunidades. A operação no início de abril, comandada pela Polícia Civil e batizada "Exceptis", visava combater grupos armados que estariam aliciando crianças para o crime, segundo as autoridades.Relatório da polícia aponta que a investigação começou a partir da apreensão de fotos de traficantes por policiais da UPP do Jacarezinho, de acordo com o Jornal Extra. Foi um dia de profunda tristeza para Rumba. "Se morriam 5, 8... 13 como foi no Morro do Fallet, 19 como no Morro do Alemão, agora foram mais de 20", lamenta. Assim que ficou sabendo das mortes, ele conseguiu contato com a defensoria, com a Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil e avisou a Comissão de Direitos Humanos da Alerj, da qual faz parte. "Eles vieram muito rápido, mas infelizmente já tinha morrido muita gente quando chegaram", conta. A defensoria apontou "cenas de crime desfeitas" para impossibilitar a perícia. "Com a nossa chegada, a operação parou e vimos um corre-corre para botar os corpos na viatura. Obrigaram a lavar calçadas, aquela coisa toda. A comissão que eu trouxe pra cá constatou que estava sendo desfeita a cena do crime", relata Rumba. A Polícia Civil do Rio de Janeiro, no entanto, nega que tenham acontecido execuções ou irregularidades na operação. "Eles dizem: fomos recebidos a bala. E o lado de cá diz que eles entraram atirando.

O fluxo migratório para favelas da Zona Norte do Rio aumentou à medida que a indústria se expandiu no país. O tráfico de drogas e a violência na comunidade, assim como em outras regiões pobres do Rio, cresce junto com o desemprego nos anos 1980. Apesar de não ter durado muito tempo, o "Condomínio Favela" gerou muitas reações na opinião pública e colocou em pauta as condições da atuação policial e do tráfico na favela do Jacarezinho.

O pesquisador Jonas Abreu aponta no estudo "A invenção da favela industrial: pistas da história, memória e identidade do Jacarezinho" que a formação do Jacarezinho como o conhecemos hoje começou um pouco antes da década de 1920. Rumba conta que, antes de ser uma favela, o Jacarezinho abrigou negros que haviam fugido de fazendas próximas. A historiadora Cristiane Muniz Thiago aponta na dissertação de mestrado "Memória e trabalho no bairro do Jacaré" que uma série de empresas no entorno do Jacarezinho foram à falência ou reduziram drasticamente seu quadro de funcionários nesse período.

O tráfico de drogas e a violência na comunidade, assim como em outras regiões pobres do Rio, cresce junto com o desemprego nos anos 1980. É o caso da General Electric, que empregava a maior parte dos moradores da favela que faziam parte do mercado de trabalho formal. Apesar de não ter durado muito tempo, o "Condomínio Favela" gerou muitas reações na opinião pública e colocou em pauta as condições da atuação policial e do tráfico na favela do Jacarezinho. Após a operação do último 6 de maio, que deixou 28 pessoas mortas no Jacarezinho, o governador do Rio de Janeiro Cláudio Castro (PSC) anunciou uma reformulação nas UPPs, que atuam em 28 favelas da capital, a partir do segundo semestre.

O pesquisador Jonas Abreu aponta no estudo "A invenção da favela industrial: pistas da história, memória e identidade do Jacarezinho" que a formação do Jacarezinho como o conhecemos hoje começou um pouco antes da década de 1920. "O Jacarezinho cresce de cima para baixo porque aqueles primeiros moradores ainda estavam desconfiados dos capitães do mato", diz ele.Capitão do mato era um serviçal de fazenda encarregado de capturar escravizados que fugiam. Rumba conta que, antes de ser uma favela, o Jacarezinho abrigou negros que haviam fugido de fazendas próximas. No decorrer de alguns anos, a comunidade que já foi conhecida como Morro do Padre Paulo e Morro da Titica, antes de virar o Jacarezinho nos anos 1940 - e chegou a ser considerada a maior favela do Rio. A historiadora Cristiane Muniz Thiago aponta na dissertação de mestrado "Memória e trabalho no bairro do Jacaré" que uma série de empresas no entorno do Jacarezinho foram à falência ou reduziram drasticamente seu quadro de funcionários nesse período.

O fluxo migratório para favelas da Zona Norte do Rio aumentou à medida que a indústria se expandiu no país. Houve ainda um novo impulso de expansão na favela em 1961, quando o então governador Carlos Lacerda decretou a criação do Complexo Industrial do Jacaré, no bairro vizinho ao Jacarezinho, incentivando a construção de mais fábricas na região. Nos anos 1970 e 1980, o Jacarezinho viu também a expansão do tráfico de drogas. O tráfico de drogas e a violência na comunidade, assim como em outras regiões pobres do Rio, cresce junto com o desemprego nos anos 1980. É o caso da General Electric, que empregava a maior parte dos moradores da favela que faziam parte do mercado de trabalho formal. Rumba Gabriel começou sua trajetória tendo como principal objetivo expor a cultura da favela do Jacarezinho. Um dos projetos mais relevantes de Rumba foi feito em 2001 e batizado de "Condomínio Favela". Apesar de não ter durado muito tempo, o "Condomínio Favela" gerou muitas reações na opinião pública e colocou em pauta as condições da atuação policial e do tráfico na favela do Jacarezinho. "Rumba Gabriel começou sua trajetória tendo como principal objetivo expor a cultura da favela do Jacarezinho. Após a operação do último 6 de maio, que deixou 28 pessoas mortas no Jacarezinho, o governador do Rio de Janeiro Cláudio Castro (PSC) anunciou uma reformulação nas UPPs, que atuam em 28 favelas da capital, a partir do segundo semestre.

A região na Zona Norte do Rio de Janeiro abrigou negros fugitivos durante a escravidão, fez parte de um grande polo industrial no século 20 e ficou marcada no decorrer dos anos pela sua efervescência cultural e sua mobilização política.O líder comunitário Rumba Gabriel acompanhou de perto a operação que aconteceu no dia 6 de abril, quando 29 pessoas morreram. O pesquisador Jonas Abreu aponta no estudo "A invenção da favela industrial: pistas da história, memória e identidade do Jacarezinho" que a formação do Jacarezinho como o conhecemos hoje começou um pouco antes da década de 1920. "O Jacarezinho cresce de cima para baixo porque aqueles primeiros moradores ainda estavam desconfiados dos capitães do mato", diz ele.Capitão do mato era um serviçal de fazenda encarregado de capturar escravizados que fugiam. Rumba conta que, antes de ser uma favela, o Jacarezinho abrigou negros que haviam fugido de fazendas próximas. No decorrer de alguns anos, a comunidade que já foi conhecida como Morro do Padre Paulo e Morro da Titica, antes de virar o Jacarezinho nos anos 1940 - e chegou a ser considerada a maior favela do Rio. Houve ainda um novo impulso de expansão na favela em 1961, quando o então governador Carlos Lacerda decretou a criação do Complexo Industrial do Jacaré, no bairro vizinho ao Jacarezinho, incentivando a construção de mais fábricas na região. O antropólogo João Costa Vargas, professor da Universidade da Califórnia, nos Estados Unidos, aponta no estudo "Apartheid brasileiro: raça e segregação residencial no Rio de Janeiro" que esse apelido refletia o grande número de grupos de esquerda e organizações políticas clandestinas que operavam na área, como o MR-8. Nos anos 1970 e 1980, o Jacarezinho viu também a expansão do tráfico de drogas. A historiadora Cristiane Muniz Thiago aponta na dissertação de mestrado "Memória e trabalho no bairro do Jacaré" que uma série de empresas no entorno do Jacarezinho foram à falência ou reduziram drasticamente seu quadro de funcionários nesse período.

O pesquisador Jonas Abreu aponta no estudo "A invenção da favela industrial: pistas da história, memória e identidade do Jacarezinho" que a formação do Jacarezinho como o conhecemos hoje começou um pouco antes da década de 1920. Dizem que a família Vargas doou para a favela do Jacarezinho crescer, mas como se doa algo que não se comprou? Já o território para onde a favela começa a se expandir, na parte de baixo, abrigava empresas como a Concórdia e a Fábrica Unida de Tecidos, que surgiram do arrendamento de uma antiga fazenda do local. O fluxo migratório para favelas da Zona Norte do Rio aumentou à medida que a indústria se expandiu no país.

Nos anos 1970 e 1980, o Jacarezinho viu também a expansão do tráfico de drogas. Segundo João Costa Vargas, jovens chefes do tráfico detinham poder de vida e morte no local e desafiavam abertamente a polícia e o Estado. Mas, quando chegou o tráfico de cocaína, começou o verdadeiro desastre da favela", diz Rumba. O tráfico de drogas e a violência na comunidade, assim como em outras regiões pobres do Rio, cresce junto com o desemprego nos anos 1980.

'Não espero nada do ano novo': o desamparo dos moradores de rua de SP em meio à pandemia e pobreza

Ele resgatou as árvores em uma lixeira de Higienópolis, um dos bairros mais ricos da cidade e vizinho ao Minhocão. "Acho que as pessoas compram árvores novas e jogam fora as antigas. Já peguei umas cinco só neste mês", conta. Ele colocou uma em cada lado de sua barraca de camping azul, na calçada que divide com outras famílias. "Já que é Natal, vamos comemorar", diz, sorrindo. As árvores de Ubiratan são uma novidade nesse cenário habitual do paulistano: os baixios do elevado continuam tomados por pessoas em situação de rua, dormindo em barracas ou colchões velhos. E o ano novo não deve mudar esse ambiente — pelo contrário, é possível vislumbrar uma piora. Segundo pesquisadores da área, a pandemia de coronavírus, além da crise econômica, está fomentando o crescimento desse contingente. Ainda não existem dados recentes sobre esse aumento, mas indicadores um pouco mais antigos já mostravam essa tendência. Entre 2015 e o ano passado, a população de rua cresceu 53% em São Paulo, somando 24,3 mil pessoas.Já em âmbito nacional, um estudo do Instituto de Pesquisa Econômica Aplicada (Ipea) estimou que 221.869 pessoas viviam nas ruas do Brasil até março deste ano — alta de 140% em relação a 2012. No entanto, esses números podem ser maiores, pois foram compilados antes da pandemia e levam em conta apenas cadastrados em programas sociais."Não existe um censo nacional da população de rua, mas apenas estimativas e contagens em algumas cidades. Sem conseguir mensurar o tamanho e as características desse contingente, fica muito difícil fazer políticas públicas que não sejam baseadas em preconceitos e estereótipos", diz Juliana Reimberg, mestranda em ciência política pela USP e pesquisadora da área no Centro de Estudos da Metrópole (CEM).Ele resgatou as árvores em uma lixeira de Higienópolis, um dos bairros mais ricos da cidade e vizinho ao Minhocão.

Segundo o censo da Prefeitura de São Paulo, 41% dos entrevistados apontaram "conflitos familiares" como motivo principal. Outros 26% culparam a "perda de trabalho". Dependência de drogas ilícitas e álcool somam 33%. Perda de moradia, 13%.A trajetória do carroceiro Ubiratan Cipriano é uma mistura de tudo isso. Ou, como ele mesmo diz: "Ninguém vem para a rua à toa". Nascido em Palmares (PE), ele chegou em São Paulo há 34 anos, fugindo de uma briga com parentes. "Foi uma confusão. Meu próprio irmão me deu dois tiros na perna. Ele derramou meu sangue. Vim embora para não derramar o dele", conta. Em João Pessoa, onde morava na época, deixou a esposa: haviam se casado nove meses antes. "Deixei uma casa pronta, montada. E minha mulher… nunca mais a vi. Não sei nem se está viva", lamenta. Em São Paulo, foi peão de obra, pintor de paredes, funileiro e caseiro. "Trabalhei numa casa por 17 anos, mas tive que sair quando decidiram reformá-la. Não arrumei mais nada. Vim para a rua", diz, sentado em frente a sua árvore de Natal recolhida no lixo. "Para o ano que vem, eu quero uma moradia digna, uma casa, sair daqui. Eu arrumaria uma condução, voltava pra João Pessoa. Será que minha esposa ainda se lembra de mim?".Seu vizinho de calçada é Júlio (nome fictício, a pedido dele). De Alagoas, chegou em São Paulo com 18 anos — hoje tem 35. "Vim com a cara e a coragem, acreditando que iria me dar bem", afirma. Mas, para ele, São Paulo entregou poucas promessas. "Fiquei desempregado, caí na droga e no álcool, e agora estou aqui falando com você", diz.Júlio também é carroceiro, mas semanas atrás um colega furtou seu veículo de trabalho enquanto ele dormia na barraca. "Na rua, tudo pode acontecer: até um amigo pode te trair e te roubar", reclama. Uma carroça nova custa até R$ 800 no centro da cidade, montante que os trabalhadores demoram meses para juntar. O carroceiro tem dois filhos adolescentes, mas ele não os vê há alguns anos. "Claro que sinto falta deles... Me afago na 51, na droga.

Elas foram acompanhadas por servidores de saúde e programas sociais, afirma a gestão do prefeito Bruno Covas (PSDB). Desse total, 31 pessoas que foram hospitalizadas acabaram morrendo.A gestão afirma ter criado 1.969 vagas em centros de acolhida durante a pandemia e que as equipes de Consultório na Rua e Redenção na Rua realizaram 144.855 abordagens, 26.997 consultas médicas e 55.973 avaliações dos usuários cadastrados no programa. Também diz que, na pandemia, ampliou a oferta de serviços de refeições, banheiros, kits de higiene e orientações a esse público.Para Juliana Reimberg, do Centro de Estudos da Metrópole (CEM), a política para essa população precisa congregar diversos setores, como educação, saúde, moradia e assistência social."Normalmente, o setor público afirma que criou vagas em abrigos como se a solução fosse só essa. Mas o problema é muito maior do que um leito para dormir. Há pessoas doentes, com problemas psiquiátricos, dependência química, desempregadas. Muitos são egressos do sistema carcerário, ou vítimas de violência doméstica, discriminação de gênero, sem perspectiva de vida", elenca.O próprio serviço de acolhimento é bastante criticado pela população de rua e por movimentos sociais da cidade. Embora 59,5% dos entrevistados pela prefeitura digam que os abrigos são "bons ou ótimos", 20% disseram já terem sido vítimas de discriminação por parte de algum funcionário, 30% já ficaram sem receber alimentação e 34% relataram ter dormido em colchões sujos ou com insetos.A prefeitura afirma que os centros de acolhida "têm suas estruturas higienizadas constantemente e são mantidos com as janelas abertas; nos quartos as camas foram colocadas em distância segura."A Prefeitura de São Paulo diz que 345 pessoas em situação de rua foram diagnosticadas com a covid-19 de abril a novembro.

As bonecas de pano e árvores com bolinhas coloridas — todas cercadas por grades para que não haja depredação — fazem parte do "Festival de Natal" da prefeitura, cujo tema é "Um sonho de cidade".Em uma das barracas vive Samara Lohanny, de 27 anos, uma mulher trans que parou ali há um mês. De Maceió, ela chegou em São Paulo há dois anos. "Eu apanhava muito do meu irmão e de um tio, que não aceitava eu ser trans", conta. Uma amiga a convenceu a se mudar para São Paulo, com a promessa de um emprego em uma casa de prostituição no bairro da Liberdade. "Foi um inferno. A cafetina me explorava muito. Eu tinha que pagar uma taxa para ela e, com o tempo, tudo o que eu ganhava era usado para pagar essa dívida. Tive que sair", conta.Nos últimos anos, Samara participou de um programa da prefeitura para pessoas trans. Conseguiu se formar no ensino médio e, com auxílio financeiro, alugou um quartinho no centro. Mas o dinheiro acabou: sem oportunidade de trabalho, foi para a rua, conta."É impressionante como as pessoas que vivem na rua às vezes te acolhem melhor do que sua própria família. Não é fácil ser trans, não sou um monstro. Mas nunca perco a fé. Sou católica, estou sempre com Deus. No ano que vem espero sair daqui, ter um canto pra ficar com meu marido. Por pior que seja a pessoa, ninguém merece viver na rua", diz.Já na praça do Patriarca, um conjunto de decoração natalina foi montado ao lado de dezenas de barracas de moradores de rua, que dormem embaixo de uma marquise desenhada pelo renomado arquiteto Paulo Mendes da Rocha.

Só volto se eu tiver alguma coisa pra mostrar…"A Prefeitura de São Paulo diz que 345 pessoas em situação de rua foram diagnosticadas com a covid-19 de abril a novembro. "A Prefeitura de São Paulo diz que 345 pessoas em situação de rua foram diagnosticadas com a covid-19 de abril a novembro.

Brothers stopped at Sydney airport 'attempting to join IS'

The boys, aged 16 and 17, raised suspicions as they attempted to pass through customs, Immigration Minister Peter Dutton said on Sunday.The pair had been radicalised online and were headed for an unidentified "conflict zone", Mr Dutton said.Australia estimates that 90 of its citizens are fighting with IS in Syria and Iraq.The boys, who have not been named because of their age, were arrested by Australian Federal Police officers on Friday.They were released into the custody of their parents."These two young men aged 16 and 17 are kids, not killers, and they shouldn't be allowed to go to a foreign land to fight then come back to our land eventually more radicalised," Mr Dutton said.The immigration minister said the boys were issued with court notices, implying they had been charged.But a spokesperson for the Australian Federal Police (AFP) said on Monday that, while there was an ongoing investigation into the incident, no charges had been brought against the boys.Prime Minister Tony Abbott said the boys had "succumbed to the lure" of IS."These were two misguided young Australians, Australian born and bred, who went to school here, grew up here, imbibed our values, and yet it seems they had succumbed to the lure of the death cult and they were on the verge of doing something terrible and dangerous,'' he said."I'm pleased that they've been stopped and my message to anyone who is listening to the death cult is block your ears. Don't even begin to think you can leave Australia," he added.Australia's The Age said on Sunday that it had identified another young recruit pictured alongside Islamic State fighters in December as an 18-year-old from Melbourne.Hoax reports when the image first emerged suggested he was a Briton called Jonathan Edwards, but according to The Age he is called Jake and he studied at Craigieburn Secondary College in northern Melbourne.Australia last week made it a criminal offence for an citizen to set foot in the Islamic State (IS) stronghold of Mosul without a legitimate reason such as a visit to family.Any Australian who travels to the city could face 10 years in prison.Similar restrictions making it an offence for Australian citizens to travel to the Syrian province of al-Raqqa, another IS stronghold, were put in place in December.

Qué es el "efecto visa H-1B" y cómo perjudica a las empresas de EE.UU. que buscan profesionales extranjeros

El hombre, de 58 años, dirige un exitoso negocio de traducción a las afueras de Filadelfia.Su compañía, llamada Cetra Language Solutions, emplea a 35 personas y tiene una facturación anual de US$5 millones.Sus clientes de alto perfil incluyen al gigante de alimentos Nestlé y al Departamento de Defensa de Estados Unidos.Pero Jiri Stejskal también es un inmigrante. Llegó al país en 1988 como refugiado político de la antigua Checoslovaquia. Su vida es un ejemplo de historia de éxito empresarial.Esto es importante, pues la política "Estados Unidos Primero" del presidente Donald Trump busca que las empresas del país prioricen el contratar a ciudadanos estadounidenses en lugar de dar empleo a personas extranjeras como Stejskal. De hecho, hace dos años, el propio Trump firmó una orden ejecutiva -denominada "Contrata y compra estadounidense"- con la que buscaba endurecer la regulación de las visas H-1B, un tipo de permiso temporal que usan con frecuencia diversas empresas para contratar talento extranjero y que tiene una vigencia de tres años.Sin embargo, Jiri Stejskal afirma que es cada vez más difícil obtener la aprobación de esta solicitud y nuevas estadísticas lo respaldan.

اتهام جدید علیه رئیس سابق بانک مرکزی ایران: ' حراج ۶۲ تن ذخایر طلا'

.آقای کریمی گفته است: "حراج ذخایر طلای کشور در دوره مدیریت سیف در بانک مرکزی انجام شد. در آن زمان ۶۲ تن طلا در قالب سکه به فروش رسید اما این پرونده هنوز بررسی نشده است."این نماینده مجلس در سال ۹۷ عضو کمیسیون اقتصادی مجلس بود.بگفته او سکه با نرخ یک میلیون تومان پیش فروش شد و "زمانی که قیمت آن به ۴ تا ۵ میلیون تومان رسید تحویل داده شد. برخی افراد هزاران سکه خریداری کرده بودند."ولی‌الله سیف به مدت ۵ سال از سال ۱۳۹۲ تا تابستان ۱۳۹۷ ریاست بانک مرکزی ایران را عهده‌دار بود؛ و همرمان با بحران ارزی جای خود را به عبدالناصر همتی سپرد.پس از اعلام سیاست عرضه دلار "۴۲۰۰ تومانی" در فروردین ماه ۱۳۹۷ دسترسی به بازار ارز محدود شد که این باعث ورود بخشی از سرمایه‌های سرگردان به بازار طلا و سکه شد؛ بانک مرکزی ایران در آن زمان تصمیم گرفت با هدف کاهش قیمتها، اقدام به پیش‌فروش سکه کند.در تیر ماه ۹۷ تعداد کل سکه‌های ثبت نام شده در طرح پیش فروش بانک مرکزی حدود ۷ میلیون و ۶۰۰ هزار قطعه اعلام شد.این طرح البته بی‌حاشیه نبود و بنابر اعلام رییس سازمان بازرسی ایران یک شهروند ۳۱ ساله در طرح پیش فروش سکه طلا، ۳۸ هزار و ۲۵۰ سکه خرید.اتهاماتی را که مقام‌های قضایی ایران متوجه آقای سیف و افراد مرتبط با او کرده‌اند به دوران تلاطم بازار ارز و سکه ایران در اواخر سال ۹۶ و اوایل ۹۷ بازمی‌گردد؛ با اجرای این سیاست، شکاف بین قیمت ارز دولتی و بازار آزاد زیاد شد و عده‌ای را بر آن داشت تا از طریق رانت به سود برسند.علی اکبر کریمی، نماینده مجلس شورای اسلامی گفته است "بهانه دولت برای اتخاذ چنین تصمیمی این بود که می‌خواهیم ریال را از سطح جامعه جمع‌آوری کنیم تا نرخ تورم کاهش یابد اما این کار در واقع چوب حراج زدن به ذخایر طلای کشور و ضربه بزرگ به بیت‌المال بود."مهر ماه امسال (۱۴۰۰) قوه قضائیه ایران آقای سیف را به اتهام "به برهم زدن نظم و آرامش بازار ارزی کشور" به ۱۰ سال حبس تعزیری محکوم کرد.از دیگر اتهامات او "زمینه سازی برای خرید و فروش غیر قانونی ارز به میزان ۱۵۹ میلیون و ۸۰۰ هزار دلار و ۲۰ میلیون و ۵۰۰ هزار یورو و همچنین اهمال و سو مدیریت در دوران مسئولیت" اعلام شد. متهم ردیف دوم، این پرونده احمد عراقچی، معاون وقت ارزی بانک مرکزی که به هشت سال حبس تعزیری محکوم شده و نفر سوم، سالار آقاخانی، کارگزار وقت بانک مرکزیست که در خارج از ایران بسر می‌برد.دلار آمریکا در اوایل فروردین ماه سال ۹۷ با حدود ۵ هزار تومان کار خود را شروع کرد؛ در بیستم فروردین دلار به صورت دستوری ۴۲۰۰ تومان معرفی شد.دونالد ترامپ، رئیس جمهور وقا آمریکا، در اردیبهشت ماه خروج کشورش از برجام را اعلام کرد و قیمت دلار به صعود ادامه داد؛ در مهر ماه ۹۷ قیمت این ارز تا مرز بیست هزار تومان هم پیش رفت.با معرفی ارز ۴۲۰۰ تومانی و اختلاف قیمت آن با بازار آزاد بعضی منتقدان، بانک مرکزی را مقصر آشفتگی در بازار ارز آن زمان دانستند.جهش نرخ ارز در اواخر سال ۹۶ و در سال ۹۷ همزمان با تشدید فشار بر بازار ارز و متوجه کردن تقصیر به کانال‌های اعلام نرخ بود.آقای سیف می‌گوید بانک مرکزی با دخالت در بازار فردایی در حال کنترل نرخ ارز بوده تا اینکه کارگزاران این سازمان دستگیر شدند؛ رئیس سابق بانک مرکزی می‌گوید مخالف سیاست دلار ۴۲۰۰ تومانی بوده است.

Crisis en Venezuela: la advertencia de la Duma de Rusia contra una intervención militar en Venezuela y la fuerte respuesta de Colombia

La carta de la embajada de Rusia en Bogotá fechada el 28 de marzo dice que "el uso ilegítimo de la fuerza militar contra Venezuela por parte de otros Estados que respaldan a la oposición será interpretado por el Consejo de la Federación de la Asamblea Federal de la Federación de Rusia (la Duma) como un acto de agresión contra un Estado soberano y una amenaza a la paz y seguridad internacionales".En declaraciones al diario colombiano El Tiempo, el presidente de la Cámara de Representantes de Colombia, Alejandro Chacón, calificó la misiva de una amenaza de "suma gravedad".Chacón confirmó que la carta había llegado a su despacho y que estaba firmada por el embajador de Rusia en Bogotá, Sergei Koshkin.La cancillería de Colombia respondió inmediatamente diciendo que la situación en Venezuela no debe ser empleada "como instrumento de ninguna competencia geopolítica".La embajada rusa en Bogotá, sin embargo, contestó después que "Colombia interpretó mal la carta de Rusia sobre Venezuela". En la carta, el embajador cita una declaración adoptada en febrero por la Duma, que es la Cámara Alta del Parlamento ruso.Días después de la aprobación, la presidenta de la Duma, Valentina Matvienko, dijo que Rusia hará todo lo posible para evitar una intervención militar de Estados Unidos en Venezuela. "Estamos muy preocupados por que EE.UU. pueda llevar a cabo cualquier provocación que pueda llevar al derramamiento de sangre, para encontrar una causa y una razón para una intervención en Venezuela", declaró en ese entonces la senadora Matvienko, citada por la agencia rusa TASS.La Cancillería de Colombia respondió este martes a la misiva expresando que "las acusaciones contenidas en dicha declaración no corresponden a la realidad y constituyen una distorsión de la posición de Colombia, compartida por varios países de la región, y de sus actuaciones concretas en relación con el régimen ilegítimo de Nicolás Maduro en Venezuela".El canciller colombiano, Carlos Holmes Trujillo, reiteró "que la transición a la democracia debe ser conducida por los propios venezolanos pacíficamente y en el marco de la Constitución y el derecho internacional, apoyada por medios políticos y diplomáticos, sin uso de la fuerza".Dijo además que "cualquier despliegue o incursión militar en apoyo al régimen de Nicolás Maduro pone en riesgo la transición democrática y la normalización constitucional en Venezuela, y constituye una amenaza a la paz, la seguridad y la estabilidad en la región".La embajada rusa en Bogotá respondió este martes y aseguró sin embargo que Colombia había hecho una interpretación errónea de su misiva."La carta lo que refleja es la posición del Consejo de la Federación de la Asamblea Federal de la Federación Rusa y la mala interpretación que ha hecho Colombia de la misma es una pena para nosotros", le dijo al medio ruso Sputnik una fuente de la sede diplomática.La embajada rusa señaló que comparte con el gobierno colombiano la necesidad de que Venezuela busque una salida pacífica a su crisis."La decidida condena por parte del Consejo de la Federación de la Asamblea Federal de la Federación de Rusia de cualquier instigación a la violencia e intervención militar extranjera a Venezuela coincide con la posición reiterada en varias ocasiones por el honorable Gobierno Colombiano y el Grupo de Lima, cuya parte forma Colombia", agregó.Asimismo, dijo que "nunca hubo una mala intención" con la misiva."Se trata de un documento parlamentario y por eso la embajada remitió la carta a los parlamentarios locales y no a la Cancillería, de manera tal que los parlamentarios locales conocieran mejor la posición de Rusia, pero como intercambio de opiniones y no como una advertencia o una afrenta", subrayó.Tanto el canciller como el presidente de Colombia, Iván Duque, han expresado que su gobierno no apoya ni impulsa ninguna intervención militar en Venezuela. La Duma ya había resuelto enviar su declaración sobre la crisis venezolana a varios países y organismos multilaterales como Naciones Unidas.Sin embargo, la BBC no ha podido confirmar que otro país, además de Colombia, haya recibido una carta reiterando la postura de Moscú.

Laura Mvula: 'Music industry is sexist'

The singer-songwriter said she often felt "isolated and misunderstood" as a female recording artist."If you say anything with assertiveness or authority, you are often... labelled a diva," she told the Radio Times.The Birmingham-born musician has joined the likes of Bjork and Taylor Swift in voicing her frustrations.Accepting Billboard's Woman of the Year award last year, Lady Gaga called the industry a "boy's club" and said women faced pressure to "sell everything to be a star"."I just really wanted to be taken seriously as a musician for my intelligence more than my body," she added.Bjork said female artists often struggle to be heard, telling Pitchfork: "Everything that a guy says once, you have to say five times." She noted journalists often gave her male producers a disproportionate amount of credit for their input. "For example, I did 80% of the beats on Vespertine and it took me three years to work on that album... it was like doing a huge embroidery piece," she said. "Matmos came in the last two weeks and added percussion on top of the songs, but they didn't do any of the main parts, and they are credited everywhere as having done the whole album."Conversely, she noted an artist like Kanye West could work with dozens of producers on an album, "yet no one would question his authorship for a second".Taylor Swift made a similar point in 2014, saying: "Females have to work so much harder to prove that they do their own things."If someone has studied my catalogue and still doesn't think I'm behind it, there's nothing I can do for that person," she told Billboard. "They may have to deal with their own sexist issues, because if I were a guy and you were to look at my catalogue and my lyrics, you would not wonder if I was the person behind it."'Lack of balance'Mvula was speaking to the Radio Times ahead of her performance at the Glastonbury Festival next week. The magazine asked her about the lack of female acts at music festivals - Adele, Beyonce and Florence + The Machine are Glastonbury's only female headliners this century."I think that's sad and surprising and it highlights we have so far to go, so much to do," Mvula said in response."The music industry is sexist, it is racist, it is a lot of 'ists'. Take your pick."Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis said there was "a lack of balance in the music industry when it comes to opportunities for female performers, but it is slowly changing and hopefully we're doing our bit to support the new female artists coming through".Speaking to the BBC last month, she said the festival was making continued efforts to book female acts."We try to keep it as equal as we can. There are so many stages that you have to rely on all of the bookers across the site to consciously book women as well as men. "Some are better than others but we do our best and it's really important that we represent both equally."The singer-songwriter said she often felt "isolated and misunderstood" as a female recording artist."If you say anything with assertiveness or authority, you are often... labelled a diva," she told the Radio Times.The Birmingham-born musician has joined the likes of Bjork and Taylor Swift in voicing her frustrations.Accepting Billboard's Woman of the Year award last year, Lady Gaga called the industry a "boy's club" and said women faced pressure to "sell everything to be a star"."I just really wanted to be taken seriously as a musician for my intelligence more than my body," she added.Bjork said female artists often struggle to be heard, telling Pitchfork: "Everything that a guy says once, you have to say five times."

I'm A Celeb castle behind Conwy county's UK City of Culture bid

Conwy county's application to become Wales' first UK City of Culture will be centred on the Unesco World Heritage site in the walled town of Conwy.Thanks to a rule change, areas, cities or even communities can now bid for the next four-yearly honour in 2025."We may be small, but we are mighty," said Gwrych Castle saviour Mark Baker.The Conwy council culture spokesman added the are in north Wales has "a reputation for already delivering world-class events and being a world-class destination.""We believe that bidding for such a prestigious status such as UK City of Culture 2025 is a tremendous opportunity for which we are ready to deliver, as we prepare to launch a new culture strategy for the county." Ant and Dec presented the ITV show from Gwrych Castle last winter after the show's location was switched from Australia because of a Covid travel restrictions.The owner of the castle hoped the international attention the county received during lockdown - including the I'm a Celebrity TV series - would help the county in its bid. The area also hit the headlines thanks to the the NHS choir performance at Venue Cymru and videos of Llandudno's famous Great Orme goats - while Conwy itself boasts a 13th-century world heritage castle.Wales rugby coach Wayne Pivac backed the bid saying: "What better place?" The team are using Eirias Stadium in Colwyn Bay to train for matches against Argentina and Canada in July. "It's wonderful, so many cities want to try to get involved, and I'm pleased Conwy is making this effort. "It's fantastic, it gives everyone an opportunity to show off what they can offer and there is certainly plenty here on offer."Conwy council leader, Charlie McCoubrey, said culture was something Conwy had "always done really well". Citing Llandudno's 2018 hosting of armed forces day, the 2019 National Eisteddfod in Llanrwst and the filming of I'm a Celebrity, Mr McCoubrey claimed Conwy was "the product that will match what they are looking for".He wanted to promote local culture, "events that happen day in, day out in every town and village"."We're really proud to be a bi-lingual authority, 25% of our adults speak Welsh every day, 50% of our school children. "We want to promote that and show the Welsh language as a living, breathing, vibrant thing." He said cultural tourism brought £440m to the local economy. "We very much see this new strategy as a driver of our economy and a way to recover from the damage that the pandemic has wrought on our community," he said.It is believed the bid will use the county's historic and contemporary assets to try and sway the expert advisory panel, which will be choosing the successful candidate.It will be looking for applicants to "articulate a vision which uses culture to transform a place through social, cultural and economic regeneration, making it more attractive to live, work, visit and invest in."The plan is the centrepiece of the county's culture strategy to to maximise potential visitors.It is believed Llanrwst, Abergele, Llandudno and Colwyn Bay will also play major parts in the bid.The Welsh government's Deputy Arts and Sport Minister Dawn Bowden said it would be "fantastic" to see somewhere in Wales wearing the city of culture crown, which is currently held by Coventry.She said: "Being named UK City of Culture 2025 would be truly transformational for the winning bidder, and would be a real boost as we look forward to a brighter, more prosperous future."Expressions of interest for the award need to be in by July 19. After that, a list of six places, to be chosen by September, will have until next January to finalise their bids.Welsh Secretary Simon Hart added: "The UK City of Culture competition represents an opportunity to not only bring significant financial investment and regeneration benefits, but also to boost Wales' established reputation as globally-recognised creative hub."Visits to shortlisted destinations by the advisory panel, chaired by Sir Phil Redmond, will take place next year. The winner will be announced in May.

Leading adoption charity collapses in financial crisis

The British Association for Adoption and Fostering (BAAF) closed last week and is being run by administrators. Much of its work in England will go to the Coram Group and in Scotland to St Andrew's Children's Society.

The British Association for Adoption and Fostering (BAAF) closed last week and is being run by administrators. Much of its work in England will go to the Coram Group and in Scotland to St Andrew's Children's Society. The British Association of Social Workers called the collapse "surprising.... given the extra cash pumped by government into adoption". In a statement BAAF chief executive Caroline Selkirk said "significant changes and prevailing economic conditions" meant it had "sadly not been possible to sustain the organisation". Matt Dunham of Smith & Williamson administrators said 55 of the charity's 134 staff had been transferred to Coram, another 29 would be kept on "to ensure smooth running" of offices in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales - but 50 would be made redundant. "BAAF has a tremendous reputation within the adoption and fostering world, but has been affected by a perfect storm of adverse issues," said Mr Dunham. "Our priority is to ensure continuity of service and support to protect the needs of children and their families." A new organisation, CoramBAAF Adoption and Fostering Academy will continue BAAF's work in adoption policy research, professional advice and development as well as taking over the running of National Adoption Week and Adoption Activity Days when would-be adoptive parents meet children who have been put forward for adoption. BAAF's role in running the National Adoption Register for England will be taken on by the First4Adoption information service - which is jointly run by Coram and Adoption UK. "BAAF is one of several charitable collapses recently and that is grounds for concern in itself," said Maggie Mellon, British Association of Social Workers Vice Chair. "With so much more government funding being attached to increasing the numbers of children being adopted, it is surprising that BAAF was not sustainable." Ms Mellon suggested BAAF, a leading provider of training and consultancy services on adoption to local authorities, may have seen its income fall as local authorities slashed spending in this area in the face of public sector cuts. She warned of a potential conflict of interest in BAAF's amalgamation with a large adoption agency like Coram Group. BAAF's independent expertise on adoption had been "very necessary" in the face of government policy promoting adoption over efforts to prevent family breakdown or placing children with birth relatives such as grandparents, she said. "BAAF also did not forget that birth parents' and families' needs have to be recognised and met. We hope this integrity will not be lost in the formation of the new organisation."Coram's chief executive Dr Carol Homden, said the new organisation would be "a sustainable way forward which enables the expertise of two organisations renowned for their work with looked-after children to be shared, to create better chances for children". BAAF's annual report shows it had an income of £8.7m in the year to March 2014, including government grants of just over £1m, but had a total expenditure of some £8.95m. In 2013 the charity's income was slightly higher at just under £9m and its expenditure lower, at £7.9m. The same document also shows a trebling of BAAF's net liabilities, including pensions from £730,978 in 2013 to £2.3m a year later. Expenditure rose particularly sharply on child placement and fostering, from just under £2.7m to just over £3.4m - a rise of more than £700,000.

Obituary: US-Bangladesh writer Avijit Roy

Mr Roy rose to prominence though his prolific writing on his self-founded site, Mukto-Mona - an internet gathering of mostly South Asia free-thinkers, ratio­nalists, sceptics and humanists founded in 2000. He was a passionate atheist and an adherent of metaphys­ical naturalism - the school of thought that rejects the supernatural concepts and explanations that are part of many religions. He was the author of numerous books, and had many articles published in magazines and journals. In a conservative country like Bangladesh, his subject matter was often contentious, covering sensitive issues such as homosexuality - which he argued was inherent in nature - religious unbelief and cosmology. Mr Roy's followers argue that many of his secular ideas are in the tradition of the great Bengali writer Rabindranath Tagore, who died in 1941 and is often referred to as "Bengal's Shakespeare".Some of the last books Mr Roy wrote, Obisshahser Dorshon (The Philosophy of Disbelief) and Biswasher Virus (The Virus of Faith), were critically well received around the world. In the Virus of Faith he argues that "faith-based terrorism will wreak havoc on society in epidemic proportions".In one of his last published articles in the Free Inquiry magazine, Mr Roy wrote: "To me, religious extremism is like a highly contagious virus. My own recent experiences in this regard verify the horrific reality that such religious extremism is a virus of faith."He said in the article that a book he published last year "hit the cranial nerve of Islamic fundamentalists" and led to him being targeted by militant Islamists and terrorists. It also led, he said, to a man openly issuing death threats against him on Facebook."Avijit Roy lives in America and so it is not possible to kill him right now," Mr Roy quoted one threat against him as saying, "but he will be murdered when he gets back."Born to a Hindu family in 1972, Avijit Roy studied microbiology as a graduate and post-graduate at Dhaka University before emigrating to the US city of Atlanta where he was employed as an engineer. His father Ajoy - who was left with the grim task of filing a murder case with police following his killing - was a professor of physics at the university.Once in the US Mr Roy set up his Bengali-language blog, Mukto-mona (Free Mind) and regularly returned to the country in February for the national book fair in Dhaka.Mr Roy told the Bangladesh Daily Star in February 2007 that the aim of Mukto-mona was to build a society which will not be "bound by the dictates of arbitrary authority, comfortable superstition, stifling tradition, or suffocating orthodoxy - but would rather be based on reason, compassion, humanity, equality and science".In the interview, he identified illiteracy as an obstacle to "free thinking" in the sub-continent: "South Asia has a major problem of illiteracy, which makes it easy for fundamentalists from outside the region to spread hatred and false propaganda," he said. "When people cannot read critical texts questioning this propaganda they are more easily deluded by preachers of hatred." After his death tributes were paid to Mr Roy from around the world. The US-based Center for Inquiry said it was heartbroken by his brutal murder, describing him as "an eloquent defender of reason, science, and free expression in a country where those values have been under heavy attack". A Bangladeshi friend in the US told the BBC that Mr Roy would be remembered for his courage and warmth."He was a wonderful man who through his website encouraged many free-thinking Bangladeshis to challenge conventional religious orthodoxy," the friend said."His death shows just how dangerous it is for anybody in the country to speak out without being targeted by the hardliners." Mr Roy's wife, Rafida Ahmed, was injured in the attack. They have a teenaged daughter.

"Avijit Roy lives in America and so it is not possible to kill him right now," Mr Roy quoted one threat against him as saying, "but he will be murdered when he gets back.

见证世界80载：BBC中文从短波到新媒体的时代记忆

时值人类历史上最大规模的战争——第二次世界大战期间，也是世界秩序巨变之际：欧洲战事正酣，亚太地区笼罩于太平洋战争爆发前夕的阴云下。八十年来，BBC中文与很多国际媒体一样，经历了短波广播、广播与网络，直至数码时代新媒体等不同时代技术变革，同时也留下了很多对世界巨变的见证。BBC华语广播设立时，尽管太平洋战争尚未爆发，但是日本帝国的军队早已全面入侵中华民国。日本发动侵华战争后，大批西方记者前往中国报导；很多西方媒体先后在上海、武汉、重庆等地建立新闻中心。据当时中华民国政府中宣部国际宣传处统计的数据，从1937年底至1941年2月，仅在武汉、重庆接待的西方记者就有168人，其中美国媒体记者占到了77人。这些记者来自诸多著名新闻机构，如美联社、合众社、国际新闻社、北美联合通讯社、《纽约时报》《芝加哥日报》《基督教科学箴言报》《纽约先驱论坛报》《生活》杂志等。世界各大通讯社、广播公司、报纸杂志都在重庆设有驻站机构，增加对中国战场以及日军在远东情况的报道，其中包括有近20年历史的英国广播公司BBC。英国外交部1941年2月26日致信时任BBC总裁奥吉尔维爵士（Sir Frederick Wolff Ogilvie）道： “由于广播是向公众提供信息的最有效途径之一，我们一致同意，采用适当方式向远东地区广播极为重要，有必要尽早开始，而且需要与我们总体外交政策相协调。”1941年5月5日星期一伦敦格林尼治时间上午10：30，英国广播公司海外部（Oversea Service）第一次用国语向远东地区广播。首播节目中，首先播出了刚刚卸任中华民国驻英大使并将出任中国外交部长的郭泰祺博士（Dr Quo Tai Chi）介绍BBC国语新闻节目的录音，其后是驻英著名华人作家熊式一（Hsiung Shi-I）播报新闻。这短短15分钟的国语节目，标志着BBC中文的开始。在BBC的国语广播之后，原计划在1941年5月7日开始的每周一次的粤语新闻广播，却因技术部门沟通问题在第一、二周未能顺利播出。直到1941年5月21日，BBC中文的粤语新闻才向远东地区广播。英国著名历史学者布里格斯（Asa Briggs）撰写的英国广播史《文字战争1939-1945》（The War of Words 1939-1945） 第三卷中，曾这样记载BBC中文的初创阶段：“1942年2月，英国的华语广播已经增加到每周六次，到7月时每周七次。当时，每天的节目包括一次新闻简报和一段时事评论。1943年5月，英国大使从重庆向外相报告说，‘知识性的广播将受欢迎’。他是听了在中国访问的两位学者李约瑟博士（Joseph Needham）和多德兹教授（E. R. Dodds）的建议。他们二人访华的目的是处理中英两国间的科学和学术交往。当时BBC中文推出的节目已经范围很广相当有趣，其中包括现代诗歌朗诵……BBC 国语广播定期由一个中国通讯部控制的成都电台转播给大学生收听，这很有些鼓舞作用。”BBC早期出版的内部刊物《伦敦呼声》（London Calling）在1943年11月刊登介绍BBC中文的文章说，BBC对华广播除了战时新闻之外，从一开始就很重视文化和科技发展的信息。“很多优秀的作者都为向中国的广播撰写文化和科技方面的专题报道，英文和中文作者都来BBC亲自报道，而英文作者的讲话通常由华语工作人员现场翻译读出。节目由成都电台转播。位于四川中部的成都是中国大学战时避难的中心，在那里的专家接收科技杂志的日常邮政渠道基本被阻断，因此向他们播报是无线电广播的独特机会。”除了国语和粤语，BBC在二战时期还曾对远东华人听众广播用闽南话播音，从1942年开始至1948年结束。第二次世界大战结束之后不久，中华民国政府在内战失败后迁移至台湾，中共则在北京建立了中华人民共和国政府。亚太地区在接下来的韩战、冷战和越战期间，继续成为国际媒体一大聚焦点。BBC中文也在这之后很长一段时间里，继续以国语和粤语向亚太地区短波广播新闻以及文化类节目。BBC这一时期的报导一方面覆盖了包括1948年伦敦奥运会在内的世界新闻大事，也有远东国家与地区的战后重建与发展，以及华语世界的文化艺术等中国大陆以外的事物，另外一方面也见证了中共建政之后对内、对外的重大事件，包括韩战、西藏战乱和达赖喇嘛流亡、中印边界战争、越战等区域战争，以及中共在中国大陆展开的各种政治清洗与斗争等等。1976年毛泽东去世，被普遍认为是1949年中共统治以来的一大转折点——意识形态极端化时代告一段落。1980年代，随着中国大陆对外开放的逐步进展，以及政治和经济改革的逐步启动， 北京一度暂停了对国际短波电台的干扰。收听来自西方国家，特别是英语国家，如BBC、VOA的短波广播，成为当时中国大陆年轻人接收西方讯息，学习英语的主要方式之一。随着中国大陆听众群的成长，BBC中文的广播节目也开始走上更深、更广、更原创的道路。1979年至1998年在BBC中文工作，后来曾担任香港《信报》总编辑的邱翔钟先生回忆说，中国改革开放的同时，BBC中文的报道方式也出现了变化：“以前的中文部比较简单，就是把新闻室提供的新闻或者材料翻译播出，我们在选择报道时是比较被动的。80年代后期开始，很多报道是我们自己做，按照我们所了解到的听众需求或者反映来做我们自己的节目，所以我们自己做了《中国丛谈》等原创栏目和节目，因为人员扩大了，人手更加齐备了，而且BBC要求各部门有能力做节目的自己做。"生在中国长在北京的BBC节目制作人鸿冈（Paul Crook）从1982年开始在BBC中文工作，直到2011年退休。他回忆自己当年加入BBC的机缘巧合时说，申请BBC 中文的工作是因为之前特别喜欢听广播：“我在80年代第一次到BBC去，把我招去的一个原因是要主持一个英语教学节目，因为当时中国是刚刚走向开放的时候。”鸿冈回忆说：1980年代，有不少人来BBC中文听音乐：西方音乐，尤其是古典音乐、西方的作曲家，音乐指挥，我们有各种介绍。“80年代后期我们办了一个流行音乐乐坛，当时我也采访了中国的音乐人，像崔健，唐朝乐队，这些也是不少中国听众很感兴趣的话题。其他的我们做过不少科技、卫生、文学，世界文明史，等。”1989年六月的天安门事件成为自中国改革开放以来的又一大历史分水岭。1980年代中共高层一度推动的政治体制改革和思想解放戛然而止，对国际媒体的管控与干扰也再度恢复与加强。六四之后的一段时间，BBC的国语和粤语广播节目都得到了各方面的重视，并在深度、广度上得到发展；BBC中文也继续向亚太华语听众播报着1990年代的世界巨变。邱翔钟先生接着回忆说：“1989年发生了天安门事件，在屠杀开始之前，学生抗议游行，接着就是他们绝食，在天安门广场绝食，当时BBC有些记者进去采访，到6月3号6月4号开枪”。“开枪的现场，我们有记者在那里。除了我们的记者还有其他国际媒体的记者也在那里。所以枪杀、开枪，还有学生们把受伤的，或者死者接送到医院，这些场面非常震撼，我们BBC的同事去拍到这些镜头，把它播出了，在国际上影响非常之大。屠杀开枪之前，是抗议示威，我们记者都有报道，我们中文部报道了再传回国内去，所以当时可以看到示威的学生举着横幅写着：谢谢你BBC！”六四事件后接任BBC中文总编的伊丽莎白·莱特（Elizabeth Wright）回忆道，对来自中国大陆的同事来说，特别是经历了十年的相对开放，开枪镇压是谁也没敢想象的结局。BBC中文当时的员工们在经历了巨大震撼之后，接下来面临的最大挑战就是如何坚持把与中国大陆相关的原创新闻时事节目，特别是涉及敏感话题的《中国丛谈》之类的访谈节目继续做下去。《中国丛谈》是BBC中文广播时代周一至周五每天一期的一个时事访谈节目。“我记得很清楚，那时候每周都要想办法找到中国大陆的人士采访，”伊丽莎白说。“非常不容易，但是我们的记者每次都办法找到合适的采访对象”。伊丽莎白还回忆说：“在天安门之后，变革很快就发生在东欧和苏联。我也清楚记得很多同事都很激动地到欧洲去实地报导，到柏林去见证两德统一，兴奋地见证历史巨变”。除了苏东剧变之外，BBC中文在1990年代也报导了一系列其他重大历史事件：1990年波斯湾战争，1992年邓小平南巡重启中国大陆经济改革，1995年第三次台海危机，1997年英国将香港主权移交给中华人民共和国，1998年亚洲金融风暴……1990年代，一场即将改变全球媒体格局的巨变悄然而至。1991年，世界上第一个互联网网页诞生。互联网在之后几年中迅速发展，随之而来的讯息革命开始给传统媒体带来新挑战。作为BBC国际部的一部分，BBC中文也在那时起开始提供网络服务。不过，据说BBC中文网的建立最初完全是自发和实验性的。从1991年至2016年任职BBC，并曾担任BBC中文主编的李文回忆说，BBC中文网站最初的尝试，是热心广播的同事们在1997年业余推出的网上“广播站”：“非常业余，就是广播结束之后把音频放在网站上。比较简单，也吸引很多人来听。”“到1999年，BBC的管理层就认为，可以把语言组的网站规模建得更大，更为多媒体。我是在1999年的6月被委任做BBC中文网的主编，负责创建BBC中文的网站，前后大概花了五个月的时间。我挑了一个很吉利的日子，1999年11月18日我们BBC中文网（www.bbcchinese.com）开站了。当时开站的时候只有十个同事，但被告知要24小时不停地更新内容，可以想象那是个什么样的状态。”BBC开始从短波时代转入互联网时代的21世纪第一个十年也是后冷战时期众多划时代事件密集发生的十年。2000年，中华民国第十届总统选举，民进党的陈水扁和吕秀莲分别当选总统和副总统，是有划时代意义的首次政党轮替，也代表台湾民主转型进入新阶段。2001年4月1日，中美军机在南海相撞，一度导致全球瞩目的重大危机。2001年9·11，美国纽约发生最终导致世贸双塔倒塌和数千人死亡的恐怖袭击，震惊世界。9·11袭击也最终导致美国发动“反恐战争”，并入侵阿富汗和伊拉克，导致美国和盟国卷入近二十年的战争。“反恐战争”期间，除美国之外，英国、法国、西班牙和俄罗斯也发生过恶性恐怖袭击。21世纪的第一个十年，世界还目击了欧元的诞生，美国次贷危机以及接踵而来的全球性金融海啸，以及中国经济的迅速崛起。在众多大事中，2008年北京成功举行奥运也是BBC当年重点报导的事件之一。时任BBC中文新闻时事主编的华英介绍了当时报导北京奥运期间的各种挑战。“2008年的北京奥运会是我担任BBC中文新闻时事主编那段时间里最复杂，准备的时间最长，报道幅度最大的一次活动，”华英说。“一方面从中国来讲，希望通过首次举办这样的国际赛事来展现一个经济实力不断上升，自信心不断增加而且一个和谐友好的国家形象，国际社会也想通过这个了解中国审视中国的发展，而且对他们认为有待改善的方面提出批评，包括当年很严重的西藏问题、对新闻自由的打压、还有环境污染问题”。“所以我们的任务是要客观全面公正地来报道这些问题，而且还要梳理来龙去脉好让听众受众了解为什么会有这样不同的声音”。“记得我们派了两名记者到北京去做采访，最可贵的地方就是能在实地采访到北京的市民，来看球的球迷或者看比赛的观众，有时还能采访到官员和运动员，记者同行专家等等。他们从前线发来的报道非常生动，非常接地气。当时中国临时解封了一些网站，一些敏感网站，我们BBC中文的记者在北京确实能看到BBC中文网的内容，当时有听众给我们写来反馈说，不用翻墙就能看到中文网的内容，他们感到非常亲切，非常新鲜。好像拉近了和我们的距离。不幸的是好景不长，奥运会结束不久，这些网站又重新受到封闭。后来我们中文部要派记者去中国做实地采访就越来越困难”。2011年，英国经历着金融海啸之后的全面经济紧缩。时任保守党卡梅伦政府的紧缩政策也直接影响到BBC。BBC中文广播70周年前夕，接到了总部决定停止向远东地区普通话广播的决定，2008北京奥运也成为广播时代的BBC中文见证的最后一个重大事件。时任BBC中文新闻时事主编华英说，对包括她自己在内多年从事广播而且喜欢这个平台的人来说，这是一个极为遗憾却并不突然的决定：“因为我们知道短波广播的听众人数在逐渐下降，而且互联网提供的这些机遇是不能忽视的，加上BBC本身的问题，面临巨大的削减开支的压力，所以我们必须要面对这个挑战。”“在2011年3月25号，就是广播最后一天的最后一个小时，为听众推出了一台特别节目，叫《告别BBC普通话广播》，当时我们请到了新老同事，还有一些经常为我们作采访的嘉宾、在世界为我们作报道的特约记者，还有一些听众代表，一起回忆BBC中文70年广播所走过的道路和一些重大历史事件的报道，还有特别节目、专题节目等等”。在普通话广播停播之后，每周一小时的粤语《时事一周》广播节目持续至今。告别了广播时代的BBC中文，开始更加专注于通过互联网页关注与报导世界和华语事件大事。2001年中国加入世界贸易组织，2004年台湾大选，BBC中文都有特别关注报导。那期间另外专题报导过的大事件还包括诸如中国艾滋病、同性恋维权、强行拆迁问题、环境污染、独生子女、人口走私等等话题。此外，BBC中文当年的节目也包括介绍英国的政治、文化、语言、社会、科技等方面最新发展的内容。2004年的台湾总统大选，BBC中文首度派遣团队到台北实地深度报导，当时还是借用当地一家电台的演播室。时任BBC中文总编李文回忆说：“当时我们部分同事是持中国大陆护照的，去台湾工作去做这个报道还需要有担保人，台湾官方才能批工作许可证。”“印象最深的是那届总统选举，还出现了非常意外的事件就是陈水扁中枪，他中枪是我们某一天做直播前没多久，我们就立即要应对这个突发新闻，把我们原本在当地的制作计划全部打乱来做直播。”据李文介绍，从2004年以后，BBC中文开始连续实地报导台湾总统大选，采访人物包括多任总统和其他政要。2010年代以来，随着手机、应用、流媒体、容媒体、社交媒体平台层出不穷，以及相伴而来的手中消费习惯巨变，世界进入新媒体时代。BBC中文也再次在探索中摸索适应新媒体时代挑战之路。2016年BBC中文大部被迁至香港，以便进一步靠近服务亚太地区的受众群。此举使BBC中文得以第一时间见证香港抗议风潮，新冠疫情爆发，台湾2020大选，以及美中关系恶化给地区所带来的直接影响。BBC中文香港站主编吴薇在回顾团队报道2019年反送中游行时说：“连续数月，香港几乎每周都有抗议和游行。没有什么时候比这时候在现场更重要了。社媒直播的记者和摄影记者总要冲在最前面，催泪弹，水炮车，炎热的天气，在香港街头工作的同事们极其辛苦，我们总是要提前做很多安全和报道预案，但是到了现场，就靠彼此的信任和专业合作。”“团队里多是年轻人， 每一个关键新闻点和香港抗议全程的转折点，我们几乎都有人在现场，力图在第一时间传递最准确、贴近又公允的新闻报道，用一切图文、 直播深度多媒体手段传达香港最真实的实时与深度报道。”回顾起台湾2020大选，吴薇说，BBC中文派出了全媒体报道小组，与台湾东森新闻进行了全方位合作，实现了多地多角度全程YouTube视频直播， 在受众覆盖和影响力传播上，都是一个激动人心的飞跃。“ 这几年，无论是中国大陆还是台湾香港，乃至全世界所经历的都是前所未有的动荡和复杂，这时候BBC中文怎样报道，全世界的华语读者都在看， ”“但是编辑部里，又始终有一种冷静与克制的专业气氛，我们的国际视野，不偏不倚，从记者到编辑团队的多文化背景的优势就显出来了，任何一个问题，我们总会有中港台和全球四个维度的思路去精准分析和报道记录，” 吴薇说。“BBC中文的专业，公信力与独立，从未如此重要， 这是我们最骄傲的部分”。另据BBC中文现任主编张晧宇介紹，与许多其他国际媒体一样，在为中国受众提供服务的过程中，除继续遭遇干扰、互联网封锁、社交媒体屏蔽等种种挑战之外，也继续面临着BBC巨大内部财政压力，以及如何在新媒体时代不断吸引新受众的压力。他还引述BBC负责数码转型和创新部门负责人的话说，BBC中文既要继续关注世界大事，也要争取让自己制作的内容“以受众喜欢的格式，在受众方便的时间，出现在受众选择的消费平台上”。他进一步解释说，这也是整个BBC正在探索的，如何从大广播时代迈向更加小巧灵活、更加以受众为中心的数码服务型媒体时代。面对来自内部和外部的多方挑战，BBC中文在探索中以新方式见证着世界变迁：2010年代的欧洲主权债务危机，阿拉伯之春，阿富汗战争，伊拉克战争，台海关系跌宕起伏，中国胡温时代的结束和习近平时代的开始，美国特朗普时代和美中贸易战，香港抗议潮，美中关系巨变，新疆维族教育营，以及中国与西方关系全面恶化……谈到转型的困难，在1994年至2009年曾担任15年担任BBC中文部主任的罗瑞娜（Lorna Ball )感慨说历史上有过多次转型与重组，但是即使再困难，她相信BBC会继续发展中文服务平台的：“因为中国有世界上最大的人口，最长的不间断文明、还有总的重要性，我很难想象一个国际台没有对中国的服务”。BBC新闻总监昂斯沃斯（Fran Unsworth）也表示：“BBC中文八十年来一直是BBC一个重要的组成部分。如今，整个BBC也在经历数码化转型挑战。我希望能看到经过数码化转型的BBC中文能够产出更多更好的新闻与时事内容”。英国议会外交事务委员会主席图根哈特（Tom Tugendhat）则在接受BBC中文访问时表示，面对数码化时代假新闻泛滥的新世界，BBC和BBC中文能够继续独立和公正地见证世界是很重要也很有意义的事情。

The White House cited Sudan's "positive actions" in addressing regional and internal conflicts and its counter-terrorism efforts.The US was bringing in Sudan from the cold - and, to the surprise of many, it came with the approval of Donald Trump's transition team.Our 20-year time-out in the naughty corner could potentially be over. If sanctions relief is made permanent on 12 July, we could look forward to joining the modern world of e-commerce.As it stands, Sudan's locals are barred from international banking. Students are not allowed to take internationally accredited online exams or courses.As an iPhone user, I cannot even download an app to my phone.

The White House cited Sudan's "positive actions" in addressing regional and internal conflicts and its counter-terrorism efforts.The US was bringing in Sudan from the cold - and, to the surprise of many, it came with the approval of Donald Trump's transition team.Our 20-year time-out in the naughty corner could potentially be over.

وہ جنھیں موت کھینچ کر حادثے والے طیارے میں لے گئی

ایسا ہی ایک واقعہ اس پرواز کے عملے میں شامل ایئر ہوسٹس انعم خان کا ہے جو اس طیارہ حادثے میں ہلاک ہو گئی ہے۔پی آئی اے کے حادثے کا شکار ہونے والے طیارے میں پہلے فضائی میزبان مدیحہ ارم کو فرائض ادا کرنے کا کہا گیا تھا مگر پرواز کے اڑان بھرنے کے عین وقت فضائی کمپنی کی گاڑی انھیں ائیر پورٹ تک لے جانے کے لیے نہیں آئی جس پر انعم خان، جن کو کسی اور پرواز میں جانا تھا، انھیں لاہور سے کراچی جانے والی پرواز میں متبادل کے طور پر فرائض ادا کرنے کا کہا گیا۔انعم خان کے چچا کمال خان نے بی بی سی کو بتایا کہ ’انعم خان کی ڈیوٹی پہلے ایک اور پرواز پر تھی، وہ جب گھر سے رخصت ہوئیں تو انھوں نے اپنے والد کو کہا کہ وہ ایک مختصر پرواز پر جا رہی ہیں اور امید ہے کہ وہ شیڈول کے مطابق شام سے پہلے واپس لاہور آجائیں گی اور ہم سب ایک ساتھ افطاری کریں گے۔‘ کمال خان کا کہنا تھا کہ جب وہ لاہور ایئرپورٹ پرپہنچیں تو انھیں بتایا گیا کہ ان کی ڈیوٹی تبدیل کی جا رہی ہے اور اب وہ لاہور سے کراچی جانے والی پرواز میں اپنی ڈیوٹی سرانجام دیں گی۔ جس پر انھوں نے اپنے گھروالوں کو اس تبدیلی کے متعلق آگاہ کیا تھا۔ان کا کہنا تھا کہ ’عموماً ایسا ہوتا نہیں، مگر انعم خان کو تو اپنے فرائض ادا کرنا تھے۔ اس وقت ان کے لیے جہاز کی پرواز لاہور سے فیصل آباد ہو یا لاہور سے کراچی کوئی فرق نہیں پڑتا تھا۔ ہمارے لیے بھی یہ معمول کی بات تھی کہ انعم خان کسی فلائیٹ پر ڈیوٹی انجام دینے جا رہی ہے۔ جس کے بعد ہم لوگ نماز جمعہ کی تیاری میں مصروف ہو گئے۔‘ انعم خان کے چچا کمال خان نے کہا کہ ’شاید قدرت نے انعم خان کے لیے یہ ہی لکھا ہوا تھا۔ موت اس کے تعاقب میں تھی جو اس کو کھینچ کر لاہور سے کراچی حادثے کا شکار ہونے والے طیارے میں لے گئی تھی۔‘ کمال خان کا کہنا تھا کہ ’ابھی میں مسجد ہی میں تھا کہ مجھے اطلاع ملی کہ کوئی طیارہ حادثے کا شکار ہو گیا ہے۔ میں فوراً بھاگتا ہوا گھر پہنچا اور ٹیلی وژن لگایا تو پتا چلا کہ لاہور سے کراچی جانے والی پرواز نمبر 8303 حادثے کا شکار ہو گئی ہے۔ جس میں انعم خان اپنے فرائض ادا کر رہی تھی۔‘ کمال خان کا کہنا تھا کہ حادثے کے فوری بعد معلومات حاصل کرنے کی کوشش کی لیکن اس وقت تک نہ حکومت اور نہ ہی پی آئی نے ہمیں کوئی معلومات دیں۔‘تاہم اب پی آئی اے نے انعم خان کے خاندان کو ان کی ہلاکت کی تصدیق کر دی ہے اور اب ان کو لاہور سے کراچی لے جایا جا رہا ہے جہاں پر ان کے ڈی این اے ٹیسٹ ہوں گے۔ اس کے ساتھ پی آئی اے نے اپنے عملے کی تصاویر جاری کی ہیں جس میں انعم خان بھی شامل ہے۔ انعم خان کے چچا کمال خان کا کہنا ہے کہ اپنے ذرائع سے لاشوں کی ویڈیو حاصل کی ہے مگر ان میں سے کوئی بھی لاش شناخت نہیں کی جا رہی۔ ان کا کہنا تھا کہ ’ہم کہتے ہیں کہ ہمیں کچھ تو بتاؤ کہ اب ڈی این اے کب ہو گا اور ہمیں انعم کی میت ملے گی۔‘ کمال خان نے بتایا کہ انعم خان گذشتہ آٹھ برس سے بطور فضائی میزبان اپنے فرائض انجام دے رہی تھیں۔ انعم خان کی دو بہنیں اور چار بھائی ہیں۔ انعم خان سب سے بڑی تھی اور اپنے ماں باپ کا بیٹا تھی۔ کمال خان کے مطابق انعم کہتی تھیں کہ پہلے اپنی بہنوں اور بھائی کی شادی کرواؤں گی پھراس کے بعد خود شادی کروں گی۔ انعم کے چچا کے مطابق وہ اپنے ماں باپ کی بہت لاڈلی تھی اور وہ خود بھی اپنے والدین اور بہن بھائیوں کا بہت خیال رکھی تھیں۔ ان کی موت کی اطلاع پر ان کے والدین صدمے سے نڈھال ہیں۔کمال خان کا کہنا تھا کہ ان کے والد بھی حال ہی میں پی آئی اے سے ریٹائرڈ ہوئے ہیں۔ انعم خان کو اپنے والد کی وجہ ہی سے بچپن ہی سے ایئر ہوسٹس بننے کا شوق تھا۔ ان کا کہنا تھا کہ ’مجھے یہ کل کی بات لگتی ہے جب چھوٹی سی پیاری سی انعم کھیلتی ہوئی میری گود میں آتی تھی اور مجھ سے کہتی تھی چاچو مجھے ایئر ہوسٹس بننا ہے۔ میں جہاز پر جاؤں گی اور ملک ملک گھوموں گی۔ آپ کو بھی اپنی جہاز میں سیر کرواؤں گی۔‘اسی طرح حادثے کا شکار ہونے والے اس بدقسمت طیارے میں سفر کرنے والے زین پولانی اور ان کا خاندان بھی چند دن قبل ہی کراچی سے لاہور پہنچا تھا، زین پولانی لاہور لندن سے آنے والی اپنی اہلیہ سارہ زین کا استقبال کرنے آئے تھے۔حادثے کا شکار ہونے والے جہاز کی جس نشت پر زین پولانی نے سفر کیا اسے پہلے جانوروں اور بچوں کے حقوق کے لیے کام کرنے والے ممتاز کارکن محمد مصطفیٰ احمد نے بک کیا تھا تاہم پی آئی اے کے خود کار سسٹم میں خرابی کی بنا پر وہ بک کی ہوئی نشست کے لیے تین بار کوشش کرنے کے باوجود آن لائن ادائیگی نہ کر سکے۔ اور بعدازاں اس نشست اور اس سے ملحقہ نشستوں پر ممتاز بینکار زین پولانی اور ان کے اہخانہ نے سفر کیا۔ ان میں زین پولانی، ان کی اہلیہ اور دو بچے شامل تھے۔ زین پولانی کے بھائی یحییٰ پولانی نے بی بی سی کو بتایا کہ زین پولانی پاکستان میں ایک نجی بینک سٹینڈر چارٹرڈ میں کریڈٹ کارڈ شعبہ کے انچارج تھے۔ انھوں نے بتایا کہ زین پولانی کی اہلیہ سارہ زین گذشتہ کچھ عرصے سے حکومتی سکالر شپ پر لندن میں مقیم تھیں۔یحیحیٰ پولانی کے مطابق لندن میں کورونا وائرس کے باعث لاک ڈاؤن کی وجہ سے سارہ زین پولانی کو لندن سے پاکستان کے لیے لاہور کی پرواز ملی تو وہ اسی پرواز سے لاہور آ گئیں تاکہ عید بچوں اور اہلخانہ کے ساتھ منا سکیں۔ زین پولائی اپنے بچوں 14 سالہ ابراہیم پولانی، دس سالہ عثمان پولانی اور چار سالہ محمد صدیق پولانی کے ہمراہ ان کا استقبال کرنے لاہور آئے تھے۔ یحیحیٰ پولانی نے بتایا کہ زین پولانی بچوں کو لاہور ساتھ لے جانا نہیں چاہتے تھے مگر بعدازاں اپنی اہلیہ کے کہنے پر انھیں اپنے ہمراہ لاہور لے گئے کیونکہ سارہ پولانی نے خاندان کے ایک ساتھ وقت گزارنے کا کہا تھا۔یحیحیٰ پولانی کا کہنا تھا کہ سارہ پولانی نے لاہور پہنچنے کے بعد تین دن قرنطینہ میں گزارے جس کے بعد وہ اپنے بچوں اور شوہر کے ہمراہ کراچی واپس آنے کے لیے اس بدقسمت جہاز میں سوار ہوئیں۔ اس جہاز میں ٹکٹ نہ ملنے پر سفر نہ کرنے والے سید مصطفیٰ نے بی بی سی کو بتایا کہ ’جب مجھے پی آئی اے کی جانب سے سیٹ منسوخ ہونے کے متعلق بتایا گیا تو مجھے وقتی طور پر بڑی مایوسی ہوئی، لیکن جب جمعے کو مجھے اس حادثے کا پتا چلا تو میرے منھ سے بے اختیار نکلا کہ میں تو اس پرواز میں سفر کرنے کے لیے پاگل ہوا جا رہا تھا جبکہ زندگی مجھے کھینچ کر اس طیارے سے باہر لے آئی تھی۔‘ یحییٰ پولانی کا کہنا تھا کہ سارہ زین اپنے خاندان والوں کے ساتھ لاہور میں بہت خوش تھیں۔ میری فون ہر بات ہوئی تو انھوں نے مجھے کہا تھا کہ بے شک لاک ڈاؤن اور کورونا کی صورتحال ہو، میں کراچی پہنچ رہی ہوں اس عید پر ہم مل کر بہت مزہ کریں گے۔ مگر زندگی نے زین پولانی کے خاندان کو اتنی مہلت ہی نہیں دی۔

Cómo aprovechar el pan viejo (y no solo haciendo tostadas o pan rallado)

Durante el proceso de panificación se alcanzan temperaturas superiores a los 100 ⁰C, por lo que las proteínas se desnaturalizan. El gluten, la proteína que permite que la harina de trigo se vuelva una masa extensible y retenga el gas de la fermentación, pierde su funcionalidad.Es por eso que no podemos usar una harina elaborada a partir de pan para volver a hacer pan. Como mucho podríamos incorporarla en pequeñas proporciones, en detrimento de la calidad del producto final. Además, al calentar el almidón en presencia de agua este se gelatiniza para incrementar la consistencia de la masa. Esto es irreversible, por lo que una harina obtenida al moler un pan tampoco puede espesar de la misma forma que una harina de trigo cuando se calienta con agua.Por último hay que tener en cuenta que en la corteza se alcanzan temperaturas muy superiores a las del interior de las piezas.Estas alcanzan los 200 ⁰C y producen las reacciones de Maillard que dan al pan su color tostado. Los compuestos que se generan en esas reacciones también dan un cierto gusto amargo: los panes con más corteza, o más tostados, al molerse generan harinas más oscuras y ligeramente más amargas.Una vez sabemos qué es lo que no podemos hacer con el pan duro veamos qué es lo que sí podemos hacer.La forma más sencilla de reaprovechar el pan es tostarlo. Con esa simple operación el pan pasa de ser un producto duro y correoso a un producto muy agradable.La corteza termina de secarse y pasa de correosa a seca. En la miga se revierten parcialmente las reacciones que han causado su endurecimiento, por lo que se reblandece.Si queremos hacer una tostada es conveniente que el pan no esté totalmente duro, ya que en ese caso es difícil partirlo sin que se rompa, la miga no es capaz de revertir su endurecimiento, y el resultado es menos agradable.Si añadimos algún ingrediente en la parte superior podemos obtener un panini.El pan duro capta agua para recuperar el líquido que ha perdido al secarse. Una vez rehidratado se puede freír o usar como espesante en recetas.Una de las fórmulas más habituales para reutilizar el pan son las torrijas o tostadas francesas. En este caso el pan se rehidrata con leche, y posteriormente se reboza con huevo y se fríe. Esta fórmula tiene multitud de variantes con distintos tipos de pan e ingredientes como almíbar, azúcar, miel, vino y canela, entre otros.Otra forma de rehidratar el pan consiste en añadirlo a salsas como espesante. Por ejemplo, en sopas -frías o calientes- como el salmorejo, la sopa castellana, de ajo y de cebolla.Podemos aprovecharlo para muchas salsas y purés, aunque hay que tener en cuenta que no espesaría tanto como una harina tras calentarla.El pan, así como restos de productos de bollería como los bizcochos, también podemos usarlo para espesar y dar una textura especial a ciertos postres lácteos, como los púdines y el pan de Calatrava. Son recetas que recuerdan a la del flan, pero con incorporación de pan.Por último, puede utilizarse como espesante en ciertos productos cárnicos, como albóndigas.Si troceamos el pan también podemos rehidratarlo para hacer migas. En este típico plato castellano el pan troceado se rehidrata y se sofríe junto con algún saborizante, como ajo, y algún producto cárnico, como chorizo o panceta. Así las migas de pan quedan jugosas y adquieren el sabor de los productos junto con los que se cocinan.Otra posibilidad es preparar picatostes. Para ello solo tenemos que freír (o tostar) los trozos de pan.De esta manera quedan crujientes incluso cuando se incorporan en salsas, purés y consomés. Estos trozos también pueden utilizarse en ensaladas, como la panzanella, típica de la Toscana italiana, aunque hay personas que prefieren incorporar el pan humedecido, sin tostar.Si picamos el pan para obtener un producto más fino tenemos pan rallado, que puede usarse para empanar pescados, carnes e incluso vegetales. Este pan es fácil de conseguir con cualquier picador doméstico o robot de cocina. El tamaño de partícula final es importante, ya que los panes, según su grosor, dan lugar a distintas texturas que absorben aceite de manera diferente, lo que afecta al resultado.Lo mejor es probar distintas granulometrías y ver cual nos convence más. Si tenemos un colador podemos probar a separar la parte del pan rallado que pasa a través del colador de la que queda retenida en él y probar ambas por separado. Veremos que la textura final cambia.Si conseguimos moler el pan hasta la finura de una harina podemos utilizarlo como espesante, pero también para elaborar galletas, dulces o saladas.Basta con sustituir la harina de cualquier formulación de galletas por este. Los resultados no son idénticos, pero se pueden obtener galletas muy interesantes.Sin embargo, no es posible utilizarlas para elaborar panes ni bizcochos por la pérdida de propiedades que hemos comentado. En estos casos podemos incorporar esta harina en pequeñas cantidades.La harina está compuesta, en su mayor parte, por gránulos de almidón. Estos se rompen durante la cocción del pan y quedan accesibles para las enzimas, capaces de degradarlo en azúcares simples, como maltosa y glucosa. De hecho, se podrían utilizar los restos de pan para elaborar un jarabe dulce.Lo más interesante de estos azúcares es que constituyen un nutriente perfecto para ciertos microorganismos, por lo que pueden ser aprovechados para realizar productos fermentados. En la industria de panificación se aprovecha el pan duro -molturado o rehidratado- para elaborar masas madre.Este pan aporta nutrientes interesantes para las bacterias acidolácticas responsables del proceso. Ya existen panaderías que presumen de esta reutilización del pan.De la misma forma se podría estudiar el uso de estas harinas en la elaboración de productos similares al yogur, ya que las bacterias responsables pueden alimentarse de la glucosa presente tras la hidrólisis enzimática.El pan duro también puede usarse para elaborar cerveza. La mayoría de las cervezas incorporan alguna fuente de azúcares fermentables además de la malta de cebada.Estos pueden obtenerse a partir de la degradación de los almidones del pan por parte de las enzimas de la malta para generar maltosa y glucosa.El uso de pan desechado para la elaboración de cervezas comenzó en Inglaterra, donde se comercializó la primera cerveza de este tipo, pero se ha extendido a todo el mundo, principalmente a través de cerveceras artesanales. También se podría utilizar para elaborar otras bebidas alcohólicas, tras destilación.Existen otras alternativas para el uso del pan duro, como su uso en piensos, y el proyecto holandés que recoge el pan que se desecha para elaborar compost.Sin embargo, el menor impacto ambiental se da cuando los subproductos de la industria alimentaria se reincorporan en alimentación humana. Se trata de un ingrediente de bajo coste con el que elaborar nuevos platos y explorar nuevas texturas.Haz clic aquí si quieres leer el original.

Estos trozos también pueden utilizarse en ensaladas, como la panzanella, típica de la Toscana italiana, aunque hay personas que prefieren incorporar el pan humedecido, sin tostar. Si picamos el pan para obtener un producto más fino tenemos pan rallado, que puede usarse para empanar pescados, carnes e incluso vegetales. Si conseguimos moler el pan hasta la finura de una harina podemos utilizarlo como espesante, pero también para elaborar galletas, dulces o saladas. De hecho, se podrían utilizar los restos de pan para elaborar un jarabe dulce. En la industria de panificación se aprovecha el pan duro -molturado o rehidratado- para elaborar masas madre. El pan duro también puede usarse para elaborar cerveza.

Covid-19 in Wales: Under-16s cases spike as rates climb

Case rates among the under-25s have risen in all but two of Wales' 22 local authority areas over the last week, the figures also show.Neath Port Talbot, with an overall case rate of 863.1 cases per 100,000 people, is the highest in the UK.It also has the highest case rate among the under-25s in Wales.When the case rates are broken down further, the PHW figures show the case rate in the 17 to 24 age group is now falling across Wales, but has rocketed in the last week for the under-16s.Specific Covid figures linked to schools are not expected to be published this academic year but other recent figures - including a record number of positive lateral flow tests, boosted by school testing - suggest these are behind the high numbers.The figures covering Covid among younger age groups show:Case rates among under-25s were highest in Neath Port Talbot (1,597.7 cases per 100,000 people) - 55% of all positive tests - and the area also saw the highest proportional rise over the week.The second biggest rise came in Rhondda Cynon Taf, while Merthyr Tydfil also had higher than average positive tests among the over 60s.Other areas with high case rates among the under-25s include Carmarthenshire (1,175.9 cases per 100,000, which is 52% of all positive tests).These all underpin the overall case rate rises we've seen in these areas.Wales' case rate has risen to 551 cases per 100,000 in the last seven days.The number of cases seen each day are at an average of 2,482 - up from 2,257 the week before. The "doubling time" is 31 days.There are growing numbers of community hotspots - 24 have case rates above 1,000 cases per 100,000. These are topped by Tylorstown in Rhondda Cynon Taf and Pontardawe in Neath Port Talbot.The lowest local authority-level case rate is in Monmouthshire, where the local community of Raglan & Llantilio Crossenny has seen only five positive tests over the past week.We have just seen a record number of tests in Wales, driven in part by record numbers of positive lateral flow tests, which include school tests.These eventually feed into the main testing figures, after follow-up PCR results. At the second wave peak last winter, we saw 21,300 PCR tests a day in Wales, but the average is now above that at about 24,900 tests a day.For the second week running we have had a record number of tests processed, and 15 September saw the highest number of tests authorised in a single day at 27,836.The daily average number of confirmed hospital admissions is 501, up slightly on Tuesday.But the number of those in hospital is a third of what it was at the same point during the second waveThere were 50 Covid patients in critical care on Tuesday - up from 47 a week ago.The daily average of Covid admissions is 37 across Wales, a slight reduction on last week (41). Ten deaths with Covid-19 were reported by PHW on Wednesday. Four of these were reported in the Hywel Dda health board area, three in Cwm Taf Morgannwg and one in each of the Aneurin Bevan, Betsi Cadwaladr and Swansea Bay areas.There was one death which occurred on Sunday, two last Saturday, four last Friday, two last Thursday and one more than a week ago. Fourteen deaths occurred a week ago, on Wednesday15 September, which is the highest daily figure under the PHW measure since 21 February.There have been 43 deaths occurring in the last seven days - an average of six deaths a day.The number of deaths are still well below the same point during the second wave.

'All Honour to You' - the forgotten letters sent from occupied France

The letters - about 1,000 have survived - were sent to London from just after the French surrender to Germany in June 1940, through to the end of 1943. They were addressed to the French service of the BBC, otherwise known as Radio Londres, which during the German occupation was a vital source of information and comfort for millions of French men and women.Extracts from the letters were read out on Friday evenings on a programme called The French Speak to the French, whose aim was to build morale and stiffen civilian resistance to the Germans and Vichy.After the war, the letters were put in storage and forgotten. That was until historian Aurelie Luneau stumbled upon them while researching her thesis on Radio Londres."I was in this tiny room in the BBC archives in Reading, and they brought me a box marked 'Letters from France'," she says. "One look inside and I knew it was one of those finds that historians normally only dream about."Remarkably, for a good part of the war it was still possible to post mail from France and for it to reach London.If you lived in the unoccupied Vichy zone - it was not until the end of 1942 that the whole of France was occupied by the Germans - you simply affixed the correct stamp and took it to the post office.Many of the letters and cards have the most basic of addresses, such as "BBC, London". The post had to pass through the Vichy censors' office which checked some 360,000 letters every week but evidently there were sympathetic members of staff because during 1941 and 1942 around 100 letters a month got through.Some letters even had messages appended in the censor's own hand, saying things like "I agree".Letters from the German zone could easily be smuggled through to the unoccupied zone and then sent on. Others came via friends in Switzerland or Portugal, or the US consulate in Lyon.Once in Britain, the letters were first read by military intelligence before being passed on to Radio Londres. Many still bear the annotations of British intelligence officials.Most of the letters were sent anonymously or signed with pseudonyms or initials - only occasionally is there a full name. The risk was great, if the writers were identified. "The letters come from people in every walk of life - workers, intellectuals, farmers. And they deal with every kind of subject - the hardships, the shortages, the arrests, denunciations of collaborators, small acts of resistance," says Luneau. "Some even give maps showing the RAF where to bomb."In March 1941 a correspondent signing himself N.S. writes from Nantes to describe what happened in the local cinema when a newsreel came on showing a meeting between Hitler and Mussolini."Oh you should have heard the din! Everyone was whistling and shouting and stamping their feet, cursing these two old cronies with words that I dare not repeat."In the next seance, the audience was told that during the newsreel there must be silence… so when the moment came, the whole of the auditorium succumbed to a sudden and noisy cold! Everyone was coughing and sneezing!"And here is another small act of defiance, sent from Alsace."In Saverne a huge Swastika was hoisted above the castle ruins. But it was torn down and replaced by a French tricolour."The heroes who did this carried it out to perfection, because they also entwined the flagpole with barbed wire and removed the crampons that were used for climbing up the tower. "The next day the population enjoyed the ridiculous scene of the Wehrmacht attempting to shoot the flag down with a machine gun!"Other letters convey the changing mood in France. At first correspondents are reluctant to criticise Marshal Petain, the World War One hero who ruled from Vichy. But gradually their patience with him is eroded.In July 1941, a woman signing herself The Stenographer writes: "While continuing to respect the Marechal - because it is impossible to believe him capable of treachery - the French people no longer believe in him. He has become a mere figurehead, a facade."And in December 1942, a letter signed 22 Mother Hens reads: "You should see the cinemas when the news come on and they show the Marechal. Total silence. Not one person claps."From mid-1942 the persecution of Jews in the occupied zone is stepped up, with the compulsory wearing of the yellow star. A regular correspondent calling himself William Tell, who gets his letters out via Switzerland, describes the scene in Paris."In Belleville and Menilmontant (working class areas) there are many Jews, small artisans for the most part. They get together in little groups and anxiously discuss the news from the night before. It is very distressing to see the women and the children of six or seven years of age." Later there are signs of impatience with the Allies, as the French wait helplessly for the long-announced second front. But by 1943, and especially after the German surrender at Stalingrad in February of that year, morale is rising.Around this time N.S. (again) recounts a scene from the Paris metro."There were two German soldiers in our wagon as well as a navy officer. Then an old French wounded veteran from the First War got on, wearing all his medals, and when he saw the Germans, he launched into this diatribe - You Germans, kaput! Your women, your children kaput! Soon you'll see how things are and there won't be one of you left!"The three Boches didn't say a thing. But the navy officer, who was standing there impassive and slowly nodding his head, had tears running down his cheeks."The stories told in the letters were of vital importance to De Gaulle's Free French in London.They allowed the movement - and indeed British intelligence - to gauge opinion in France and also to judge the impact of their propaganda effort conducted via the BBC.It is estimated that some 70 per cent of French households with a radio set turned in to the BBC during the war - and even today the reputation of the BBC in France owes much to the collective memory of those days.Throughout all the letters, the one constant theme is gratitude for keeping alive the cause of freedom.In December 1944, a teacher called Monsieur Godard - it was after the Liberation so he could use his real name - sent a poem of thanksgiving to the BBC, written by his daughter.

Coronavirus: Capt Tom Moore's NHS fundraiser hits £17m

Captain Tom Moore originally aimed to raise just £1,000 for NHS Charities Together by completing laps of his garden before his 100th birthday.But he has smashed his target after nearly 800,000 people made donations to his fundraising page. As he finished the challenge earlier, he said: "I feel fine, I hope you're all feeling fine too."Capt Tom told the BBC the total amount raised so far was "an absolutely fantastic sum of money". "I never dreamt I would be involved in such an occasion as this," he said at the end of his final lap.On Friday morning, Capt Tom's JustGiving page, which temporarily crashed after he finished the challenge nearly 24 hours earlier, was showing donations of more than £17m.The total includes an undisclosed donation from the Duke of Cambridge, who also wrote to the World War Two veteran.Capt Tom's daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore said: "We are absolutely floored by what has been achieved but we're so happy, so humbled and so proud."He's a beacon of hope in dark times and I think we all need something like this to believe in and it's for such an amazing cause."His granddaughter, Georgia, added she was "very proud" of him.Capt Tom began raising funds to thank the "magnificent" NHS staff who helped him with treatment for cancer and a broken hip.With the aid of a walking frame, he completed 100 laps of the 25-metre (82ft) loop in his garden in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire, in 10-lap chunks well before his birthday on 30 April.Tributes and messages of congratulations have poured in from politicians, celebrities and NHS workers, while a petition for him to receive a knighthood has been signed by more than 300,000 people so far.Downing Street said Prime Minister Boris Johnson would "certainly be looking at ways to recognise" him."It would be marvellous to have such an honour but I don't expect anything like that," Capt Tom said. A spokesman for Mr Johnson said Capt Tom had "captured the heart of the nation with his heroic efforts" and raised an "incredible amount" of money. Chancellor Rishi Sunak said what he had done was "extraordinary" and "showed that the British spirit was as strong as it's ever been".Brig Andrew Jackson, colonel of the Yorkshire Regiment, described Capt Tom as "an absolute legend" who came from "an exceptional generation that are still an inspiration for our Yorkshire soldiers today".Celebrity judge Judy Sheindlin described the 99-year-old as "remarkable" while former F1 champion Damon Hill congratulated him on the "brilliant idea and for pulling it off".Nurses on Ward 4 at the Royal University Hospital said: "Thank you so much for all your efforts and how much money you've raised for the NHS."Capt Tom also received a special message from actor and singer Michael Ball, who described the challenge as "an extraordinary achievement" and sang "You'll Never Walk Alone" to him live on BBC Breakfast.Shortly after he finished the fundraiser, the retired soldier had words of advice for the nation about coping with the coronavirus lockdown."You've all got to remember that we will get through it in the end, it will all be right," he said."For all those people finding it difficult at the moment, the sun will shine on you again and the clouds will go away."More than 700,000 people from around the world have donated money to the fundraising page since it was set up last week.Capt Tom, who is originally from Keighley in West Yorkshire, trained as a civil engineer before enlisting in the Army for World War Two, rising to captain and serving in India and Myanmar, also known as Burma.The veteran said plans for his 100th birthday party in two weeks' time have been affected by the pandemic but that the national outpouring of love and support for him was "a party enough for me".An online campaign by schoolgirl Reegan Davies to send him virtual cards started to gather pace this week and Marston Moretaine postmaster, Bill Chandi, said "hundreds of [birthday] cards are arriving already"."I think there will be thousands but I will make room for Capt Tom's birthday cards somehow, that should be no problem."He is a regular visitor and has always got time and patience, he's a real gentleman." NHS Charities Together, which support health service charities and will benefit from the funds, said it was "truly inspired and humbled" by his efforts.Its chairman Ian Lush said about 150 charities would benefit from the money."It's extraordinary to see the amount of money and the outpouring of goodwill towards the NHS and towards all the NHS charities who will take good care with the money that he's raising," he said.JustGiving confirmed it is the largest total ever raised in a single campaign on its site and it had itself donated £100,000 to Capt Tom's "amazing campaign"."This is the largest donation JustGiving has ever made," a spokeswoman said."[The campaign is] the largest total raised on JustGiving, the fastest growing campaign on the platform and has attracted donations and media coverage from around the world."Find BBC News: East of England on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

बॉक्सर कलैवानीचं 2024 च्या ऑलिंपिकमध्ये खेळण्याचं लक्ष्य

2019 मध्ये विजयनगर इथे झालेल्या वरिष्ठ गटाच्या राष्ट्रीय अजिंक्यपद स्पर्धेत 18 वर्षीय कलैवानीने रौप्यपदक पटकावलं तेव्हापासून बॉक्सिंग वर्तुळात तिचं नाव सातत्याने घेतलं जात आहे.त्या स्पर्धेत 'सर्वोत्कृष्ट होतकरू खेळाडू'चा मान कलैवानीने पटकावला होता.तिची वाटचाल स्तिमित करणारी आहे. मात्र त्यासाठी तिने खाल्लेल्या खस्ता दुर्लक्षित राहतात.25 नोव्हेंबर 1999 रोजी चेन्नईत बॉक्सिंगची पार्श्वभूमी असलेल्या कुटुंबात कलैवानीचा जन्म झाला. तिचे वडील एम. श्रीनिवासन तरुणपणी बॉक्सर होते. तिचा भाऊ राष्ट्रीय पातळीवर खेळणारा बॉक्सर आहे.बाबा घरी भावाला मार्गदर्शन करताना कलैवानीने पाहिलं. त्यातूनच तिला बॉक्सिंगची आवड निर्माण झाली. वडिलांनी सुरुवातीपासूनच तिला पाठिंबा दिला आणि तिचं प्रशिक्षण सुरू झालं.कलैवानीच्या घरचे खंबीरपणे तिच्या पाठिशी उभे राहिले मात्र नातेवाईक आणि शिक्षकांनी बॉक्सिंगमध्ये मोडता घातला. कलैवानीने बॉक्सिंगऐवजी शिकण्यावर लक्ष केंद्रित करावं असं तिच्या शिक्षकांचं म्हणणं होतं. शिक्षकांप्रमाणे तिच्या काही नातेवाईकांनीही बॉक्सिंग नव्हे तर शिक्षण महत्त्वाचं असल्याचं सांगितलं होतं. बॉक्सिंग खेळत लागलीस तर लग्नही होणार नाही असंही नातेवाईक म्हणाले.सामाजिक दडपणांच्या बरोबरीने कलैवानीकडे सरावासाठी आधुनिक सोयीसुविधाही नव्हत्या. व्यायामशाळा, पायाभूत सुविधा, आधुनिक प्रशिक्षण, पोषक आहार या गोष्टी कोणत्याही खेळाडूसाठी आवश्यक असतात. कलैवानीच्या नशिबात हे काही नव्हतं. मात्र तिच्या वडिलांनी हार मानली नाही आणि ते कलैवानीला मार्गदर्शन करत राहिले. बॉक्सर म्हणून घडण्यात वडील आणि भावाची भूमिका मोलाची असल्याचं कलैवानी सांगते.त्यांच्या परिश्रमाला फळं मिळू लागली जेव्हा सबज्युनियर गटात कलैवानीने पदकांची कमाई सुरू केली. तिच्या यशाने शिक्षक आणि नातेवाईकांचा दृष्टिकोन बदलू लागला.2019 मध्ये कलैवानीच्या कारकिर्दीत निर्णायक क्षण आला जेव्हा तिने वरिष्ठ राष्ट्रीय अजिंक्यपद स्पर्धेची अंतिम फेरी गाठली. अंतिम लढतीत मंजू राणीविरुद्ध तिला पराभवाला सामोरं जावं लागलं. सहा वेळा जागतिक अजिंक्यपद स्पर्धेत पदकविजेत्या मेरी कोम यांच्या हस्ते कलैवानीला गौरवण्यात आलं.या पदकाने, कामगिरीने कलैवानीचा आत्मविश्वास दुणावला आणि चांगल्या दर्जाच्या सोयीसुविधांची दारं तिच्यासाठी खुली झाली. इटलीचे प्रशिक्षक रफाले ग्रमास्को यांच्या मार्गदर्शनाखाली कलैवानीचा सराव सुरू झाला. कर्नाटकमधल्या जेएसडब्ल्यू इन्स्पायर इन्स्टिट्यूट ऑफ स्पोर्ट्स इथे तिला अत्याधुनिक सोयी सुविधा मिळू लागल्या.त्याच वर्षी काठमांडू इथं झालेल्या दक्षिण आशियाई क्रीडा स्पर्धेत कलैवानीने ४८ किलो वजनी गटात खेळताना नेपाळच्या महाराजन ललितावर मात करत सुवर्णपदकावर नाव कोरलं.युवा भारतीय बॉक्सरची उद्दिष्ट खणखणीत स्पष्ट आहेत. कलैवानीला कॉमनवेल्थ स्पर्धेतलं सुवर्णपदक खुणावतं आहे. 2024 मध्ये होणाऱ्या ऑलिम्पिक स्पर्धेत तिला देशासाठी पदक मिळवायचं आहे. कलैवानी सध्या 48 किलो वजनी गटात सहभागी होते. ऑलिम्पिक स्पर्धेत हा वजनी गट नाही. आणखी दोन वर्ष या गटात खेळून, त्यानंतर आणखी वजनी गटातून खेळायचं तिचं लक्ष्य आहे.खेळातून निवृत्ती घेतल्यानंतर, युवा खेळाडूंना मार्गदर्शन करणारी कोच व्हायचं कलैवानीचं स्वप्न आहे. भारतीय महिला बॉक्सर्सची कामगिरी चांगली व्हायची अपेक्षा असेल तर लोकांचा दृष्टिकोन बदलणं आवश्यक आहे असं कलैवानीला वाटतं. खेळांमध्ये कारकीर्द घडवू पाहणाऱ्या महिला खेळाडूंना प्रोत्साहन मिळायला हवं असं कलैवानी सांगते.

Leslie Van Houten, former Manson follower, may be paroled after 40 years

Van Houten has been denied parole 19 times before over the 1969 deaths of Leno La Bianca and his wife Rosemary.Governor Jerry Brown will now decide whether to release Van Houten.A former homecoming queen, Van Houten was the youngest Manson follower to be convicted of murder.She has been seen as the most sympathetic of Charles Manson's followers."She's been ready for this for a long time,'' said her lawyer Rich Pfeiffer, after the parole board made its recommendation."It really should have happened a long time ago."Prosecutors at the time likened Manson to a cult leader and said he controlled his followers using drugs and other means.Van Houten, then 19, held down Rosemary La Bianca while someone else stabbed her and she later admitted she stabbed the woman after she was dead."I don't let myself off the hook. I don't find parts in any of this that makes me feel the slightest bit good about myself," she said on Thursday.Since her conviction, Van Houten, now 66, completed college degrees and demonstrated exemplary behaviour. "The only violent thing she has ever done in her entire life was this crime and that was under the control of Charles Manson," Van Houten's lawyer, Rich Pfeiffer told the Associated Press before the hearing. "She is just not a public safety risk, and when you are not a public safety risk, the law says you shall be released."The La Bianca killings came a day after other followers of Charles Manson carried out the grisly murder of actress Sharon Tate and four others. Manson, who directed but did not take part in the murders, thought the killings would start a race war, called "Helter Skelter" after a Beatles song. Tate's sister, Debra has fought against the release of Manson and his followers including Van Houten, although Van Houten was not involved in the Tate murders.Debra Tate said Van Houten did not show remorse for years.

"Путіна у відставку!" У Хабаровську відбувся наймасовіший антивладний мітинг

Як повідомляє кореспондент російської служби ВВС Петро Козлов, на вулиці вийшли десятки тисяч мітингарів, які вимагали чесного суду над губернатором. Також вони хочуть, щоб він проходив у формі суду присяжних саме тут, а не в Москві.Учасники несанкціонованого мітингу кричали "Свободу Фургалу", "Росія - вставай!", Росія - виходь!", "Ми тут влада" та "Путіна у відставку!" Люди пройшли колоною центром міста.Мітингарі дуже негативно відгукуються про президента Путіна й під приводом арешту губернатора, який їм подобається, жорстко критикують центральну владу і президента. "Ніколи не було довіри до Путіна, хай відзвітує за свої проєкти, куди гроші пішли, у яких кишенях осіли. Набридла брехня", - заявив молодий протестувальник ВВС. "Я не вважаю Путіна хорошим президентом", - заявила на камеру дівчина на мітингу. Багато хто висловлював невдоволення "обнуленням строків" Путіна та можливість правити ще два терміни. Люди також кричали "Ганьба центральним ЗМІ" та пояснювали, що головні канали Росії брешуть про акції у Хабаровську. Автомобілісти також організували автопробіг і їздили біля мітингу, підтримуючи людей сигналами клаксонів. Хоча, як вказує кореспондент ВВС, дехто з автомобілістів все ж таки невдоволений перекриттям центральної вулиці міста. Сергія Фургала арештували за звинуваченням у вбивстві, які той нібито вчинив у 2000-х роках.Сергій Фургал від партії ЛДПР у 2018 році переміг губернатора від "Єдиної Росії" з результатом у 70%. Оглядачі відмічали його популістичні дії і боротьбу з корупцією чиновників, що подобалось місцевим мешканцям. Рейтинг губернатора тут був суттєво вищий за популярність президента Росії.Мітинги у Хабаровську йдуть вже 15-й день поспіль."Враження, що на вулицю вийшло майже все місто. Людей більше, ніж минулої суботи. Схоже що це наймасовіший мітинг за ці тижні", - повідомив кореспондент ВВС Петро Козлов.Хабаровський портал DVhab оцінив кількість мітингарів 25 липня у 20 тисяч людей.За оцінками мерії Хабаровська, в акції беруть участь 6,5 тисяч людей.Натомість за особистим враженням кореспондента ВВС, людей могло бути понад 50 тисяч. Офіційна влада Росії неодноразово наполягала, що мітинги організовують іноземці, а людям за участь у мітингах платять."Ми прийшли самі!" - натомість кричали люди на мітингу. Про затримання Фургала повідомили 9 липня. За версією слідства, він організував кілька вбивств у 2004-2005 роках.Тимчасовим губернатором призначили представника партії ЛДПР Михайла Дегтярьова, якого не надто тепло зустріли місцеві мешканці.Він вже встиг стати учасником низки скандалів та сварок з мешканцями Хабаровська. "Дегтярьова у баню", - кричали на мітингу люди, яким не подобається новий губернатор. Такий лозунг пов'язаний з минулими висловлюваннями Дегтярьова, що він вирішує важливі питання в бані. Лідер партії ЛДПР Володимир Жириновський, якого вважають "зручним опозиціонером Путіна", закликає людей не виходити на мітинги. "Танки у місто не вводять, нам не чинять перепон, це добре. Не треба нас лякати, ми вільні люди, хочемо знати правду про Фургала", - розповіла ВВС учасниця мітингу.Оглядачі звертають увагу, що влада не наважується застосовувати силу проти несанкціонованих мітингів. У Москві у таких обставинах поліція Росії часто застосовує силу для розгону протестувальників.

Three-day water ban in Ohio lifted

"Our water is safe," Toledo Mayor Michael Collins said on Monday, finishing his press conference by drinking a glass of city water.The ban began on Saturday after algae bloomed on the west side of Lake Erie, where the city gets most of its water.Officials warned boiling water could increase the concentration of toxins.The main toxin, microcystin, leads to nausea, diarrhea, vomiting and can affect liver functions if ingested, but it is rarely deadly to humans, health officials said.Water systems in homes and business must be flushed out before water can now be used, the city council declared.But testing done by the city, state and the US environmental protection agency all came back indicating below-dangerous toxin levels.Algae blooms are common in the summer in Lake Erie, often caused by run-off from overfertilised land or malfunctioning septic systems.But Toledo's antiquated water treatment systems were also at fault, Mr Collins said.The city's mayor said he will seek funds from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to cover the cost of the crisis."We took a huge hit from a financial perspective," he said. Over the weekend, the Ohio National Guard gave out 33,000 US gallons (125,000 litres) of clean water across 10 water distribution centres in Toledo.And Ohio officials were investigating claims of price gouging for water during the ban, the Toledo Blade newspaper reported.Earlier, Governor John Kasich declared a state of emergency for three counties in Ohio, allowing the state to direct resources to the affected areas.

Coronavirus en Rusia: cómo el covid-19 está poniendo a prueba el poder "faraónico" de Vladimir Putin

El personal de la cadena de dulcería en el centro de Moscú, con sus mascarillas puestas, espolvorea nueces y bayas en los bollos y coloca chocolate en los pasteles.Sin embargo, solo quedan unos pocos trabajadores en la línea de producción y sus productos ahora son solo para llevar.El confinamiento por el coronavirus ha obligado a la empresa a cerrar su cadena de cafés familiares y el negocio está luchando por mantenerse a flote.Pero su dueña dice que el Estado no está haciendo nada para ayudarlos.Fue por eso que cuando Anastasia Tatulova se encontró cara a cara con el presidente de Rusia no se contuvo."Trataré de rogar por su ayuda sin llorar, pero esto realmente es una tragedia", le dijo a Vladimir Putin el mes pasado, y agregó que las "medias medidas" de apoyo no eran suficientes.Cuando las restricciones por el covid-19 comenzaron a entrar en vigor y las empresas despidieron a su personal, Tatulova se encontró en la primera fila en una reunión entre empresarios y el presidente.Su apasionado discurso de 12 minutos se mostró en vivo por la televisión estatal."En ese momento solo necesitaba que me escuchara", explicó la empresaria recientemente a la BBC.Dice que ahora apenas duerme, pensando constantemente en nuevas formas de sobrevivir."Pensé que él lo entendería. Pero no ha habido resultados y las medidas del gobierno no son suficientes.

Fruit and veg: More than five-a-day 'no effect'

An analysis of 16 worldwide studies suggested that for every portion of fruit and vegetables consumed, there was a lower risk of premature death.But after five portions a day, there was no further impact, researchers report in The BMJ. There have been calls to up the quota to seven-a-day, to prolong lives.Current NHS guidance is to eat at least five portions of fruit and vegetables a day. Most people manage about four.The new analysis looked at 16 studies in the US, Asia and Europe involving more than 833,000 people, of whom about 56,000 died during the follow-up period.Researchers in the US and China found eating more fruit and vegetables was linked with a lower risk of dying from any cause, particularly from cardiovascular disease.The average risk of death fell by about 5% for every extra serving of fruit and vegetables, up to five servings a day, but not beyond. "This analysis provides further evidence that a higher consumption of fruit and vegetables is associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality, particularly cardiovascular mortality," said the team, led by Prof Frank Hu, of Harvard School of Public Health, in Boston, US. "There was a threshold around five servings of fruit and vegetables a day, after which the risk of all cause mortality did not reduce further."There have been calls to increase the quota of fruit and vegetables beyond five.A previous study in England found eating seven or more portions of fruit and vegetables a day was healthier than the minimum five currently recommended and could prolong lives. But lead researcher Dr Oyinlola Oyebode, of University College London, said both studies showed eating more fruit and veg was associated with lower risk of early death."This study suggests not much additional effect over five portions, although there was possibly a greater effect in the groups eating five to seven, and seven plus portions in our study," she told the BBC."Most people do not eat five portions of fruit and veg a day, so the message for the public is still to eat more fruit and veg."Commenting on the study, Victoria Taylor, senior dietician at the British Heart Foundation, said: "Although our five-a-day message is well established, worryingly 70% of adults are still not meeting this target."Just remember that every extra portion you eat towards your five-a-day could help you keep your heart healthy."Dr Alison Tedstone, chief nutritionist at Public Health England, said: "The majority of people in England are not eating enough fruit and vegetables with the latest National Diet and Nutrition Survey (NDNS) data from 2008 to 2012 showing that only 30% of adults and 41% of older adults met the five-a-day recommendation. "Eating a healthy, balanced diet that is high in fruit, vegetables and fibre and low in saturated fat, sugar and salt, alongside being more active, will help you to maintain a healthy weight and lower your risk of developing heart disease, type 2 diabetes and some cancers."

Abierto de Australia: quién es Stefanos Tsitsipas, el tenista de 20 años que estudió a Federer en YouTube y luego le ganó en la cancha

Su idea fue que para convertirse en uno de los mejores jugadores del mundo lo ideal era aprender directamente del mejor de todos, el suizo Roger Federer, su ídolo.Fue entonces que escribió el nombre del maestro suizo en YouTube y comenzó a mirar sus mejores partidos.¿Su favorito? La victoria del entonces tenista juvenil sobre Pete Sampras en Wimbledon en 2001.Lo que no sospechaba el tenista griego es que él sería protagonista de una historia similar al vencer este domingo a Federer en los octavos de final del Abierto de Australia.Con una edad parecida, una clasificación similar y, como dijo el mismo tenista suizo, con el mismo pelo, Tsitsipas es ahora la sensación de la que está hablando todo el mundo del tenis.Su idea fue que para convertirse en uno de los mejores jugadores del mundo lo ideal era aprender directamente del mejor de todos, el suizo Roger Federer, su ídolo.Fue entonces que escribió el nombre del maestro suizo en YouTube y comenzó a mirar sus mejores partidos.¿Su favorito?

Pero cuando vi que él lo hacía con una mano me encantó", le dijo Georgatou a BBC Sport."Juega como la vieja escuela de tenis, con un muy buen golpe de derecha, que es su fortaleza, pero también sirve bien y tiene un poderoso revés"."Tiene mucha variedad en su juego, sube a la red, volea y puede ser impredecible"."Hay veces que su estilo me recuerda a Federer. Fue su ídolo y lo ha visto mucho. Tal vez es por eso que tenga un aire", resaltó la periodista griega.Nunca un jugador griego había logrado ubicarse entre los 100 mejores del mundo hasta la irrupción de Tsitsipasm, quien logró romper esa barrera en octubre de 2017 siendo todavía un adolescente.Un año después consiguió su primer título del circuito profesional al ganar el Abierto de Estocolmo, cerrando 2018 con la victoria en la final del NextGen, torneo que reúne a los mejores tenistas menores de 21 años de la ATP.Pero sin duda que su mayor triunfo ocurrió este domingo en Melbourne cuando superó a Federer en un electrizante partido 6-7 (11-13), 7-6 (7-3), 7-5, 7-6 (7-5).Su próximo rival será el español Roberto Bautista Agut y de avanzar a semifinales logrará ubicarse por primera vez entre los 10 mejores del mundo."Cuando lo vi por primera vez supe que iba a ser alguien grande", comentó la periodista griega, Vicky Georgatou."La mayoría de los niños juegan con un revés a dos manos.

Ese es el problema".Para Georgatou, de la página deportiva SDNA, se trata de una situación que no es nueva."Su padre me dijo que cuando Stefanos era pequeño no tenía muchos amigos", comentó."Pero le gustaba de esa manera.

Nacido de una familia vinculada al tenis, su primer contacto con una raqueta fue a los 3 años gracias a la influencia de su madre, Julia Salnikova, quien representó a Rusia en la Copa Federación, y de su padre, Apostolos, quien es todavía su entrenador. "Grecia es un país donde la gente es loca por el fútbol y el baloncesto, y eso nunca va a cambiar", reflexionó Georgatou. "Creo que ahora que Stefanos lo está haciendo bien, y María Sakkari también (número 43 del mundo), se convertirá en el tercer deporte de Grecia y la gente lo comenzará a seguir". "Él siempre nos ha dicho que juega por la bandera, es un chico que está orgulloso de ser griego", agregó Georgatou.

Su idea fue que para convertirse en uno de los mejores jugadores del mundo lo ideal era aprender directamente del mejor de todos, el suizo Roger Federer, su ídolo. La victoria del entonces tenista juvenil sobre Pete Sampras en Wimbledon en 2001. Lo que no sospechaba el tenista griego es que él sería protagonista de una historia similar al vencer este domingo a Federer en los octavos de final del Abierto de Australia. Con una edad parecida, una clasificación similar y, como dijo el mismo tenista suizo, con el mismo pelo, Tsitsipas es ahora la sensación de la que está hablando todo el mundo del tenis. Nunca un jugador griego había logrado ubicarse entre los 100 mejores del mundo hasta la irrupción de Tsitsipasm, quien logró romper esa barrera en octubre de 2017 siendo todavía un adolescente. Un año después consiguió su primer título del circuito profesional al ganar el Abierto de Estocolmo, cerrando 2018 con la victoria en la final del NextGen, torneo que reúne a los mejores tenistas menores de 21 años de la ATP.Pero sin duda que su mayor triunfo ocurrió este domingo en Melbourne cuando superó a Federer en un electrizante partido 6-7 (11-13), 7-6 (7-3), 7-5, 7-6 (7-5). Su próximo rival será el español Roberto Bautista Agut y de avanzar a semifinales logrará ubicarse por primera vez entre los 10 mejores del mundo. "Cuando lo vi por primera vez supe que iba a ser alguien grande", comentó la periodista griega, Vicky Georgatou. "La mayoría de los niños juegan con un revés a dos manos. Pero cuando vi que él lo hacía con una mano me encantó", le dijo Georgatou a BBC Sport. "Juega como la vieja escuela de tenis, con un muy buen golpe de derecha, que es su fortaleza, pero también sirve bien y tiene un poderoso revés". "Hay veces que su estilo me recuerda a Federer. Fue su ídolo y lo ha visto mucho. Tal vez es por eso que tenga un aire", resaltó la periodista griega.

"Esperamos que eso haga que más niños tomen una raqueta y comiencen a jugar". Algo de lo que tendrá que tener especial cuidado tras vencer a Federer y ser el "hombre más feliz de la Tierra".

इंडोनेशियात ज्वालामुखीचा उद्रेक : बालीमध्ये अतिदक्षतेचा इशारा

ज्वालामुखीतून निघालेल्या राखेमुळे विमान वाहतुकीला रेड वॉर्निंग जारी करण्यात आली आहे. या रेड वॉर्निंगचा अर्थ उद्रेकाची शक्यता असून ज्वालामुखी आणखी धुमसण्याची शक्यता आहे आणि त्यामुळे आणखी राख उत्सर्जित होऊ शकते.इंडोनेशियाच्या बाली बेटावरील ज्वालामुखीचा या आठवड्यातला हा दुसरा उद्रेक आहे. माउंट आगुंगमधून निघालेल्या राखमिश्रित धुराचे ढग 4000 मीटर (13,100 फूट) उंचीवर गेले आहेत.या ज्वालामुखीमुळे बालीमध्ये वातारणात राखेचं साम्राज्य पसरलं असून प्रशासनाने मास्क वापरण्याचा सल्ला दिला आहे. मास्कचं वितरणही सुरू केलं आहे.बाली बेट हे जगातील लोकप्रिय पर्यटनस्थळ म्हणून ओळखलं जातं. बालीमधील सेमिन्याक आणि कुटा ही मुख्य पर्यटनस्थळं आहेत. या जागा ज्वालामुखीपासून 70 किलोमीटर अंतरावर आहेत.बेटावरील विमानतळ सध्यातरी सुरळीत सुरू आहे. पण काही विमान कंपन्यांनी त्यांची सेवा रद्द केली आहे. ज्वालामुखीची राख विमानाच्या इंजिनाला धोका पोहोचवू शकते.राखेचे ढग सध्या बाली बेटाच्या पूर्वेकडील लोम्बोक बेटाकडे सरकत आहेत. तिथलं मुख्य विमानतळ पूर्णतः बंद करण्यात आलं आहे.इंडोनेशियाच्या आपत्कालीन व्यवस्थापन एजन्सीच्या माहिती संचालकांनी यासंदर्भात ट्वीट केलं आहे की, लोम्बोकच्या मातारम शहरात ज्वालामुखीच्या राखेच्या ढगांतून पाऊस पडला आहे.'माऊंट आगुंगच्या परिसराचा धोका सोडल्यास बालीमध्ये पर्यटन अजूनही सुरक्षित आहे', असं त्यांच्या अधिकृत निवेदनात म्हटलं आहे.या ज्वालामुखीच्या तोंडाजवळ आता मॅग्मा म्हणजे वितळलेले खडक दिसू लागले आहेत, असं तिथल्या अधिकारी आणि भूगर्भतज्ज्ञांनी सांगितलं.7.5 किलोमीटरच्या परिघातील लोकांनी तत्काळ हा परिसर रिकामा करावा, सुरक्षेसाठी 'शांतपणे आणि शिस्तीत' बाहेर पडावे, असे आदेश देण्यात आले आहेत.यावर्षी आतापर्यंत 1 लाख 40 हजार लोकांनी ज्वालामुखीच्या उद्रेकापासून वाचण्यासाठी शहरं सोडली आहेत. त्यापैकी 25,000 लोकं अजुनही तात्पुरत्या निवाऱ्यात आश्रयाला असल्याचं म्हटलं जातं. ज्वालुखीचा विस्फोट होऊ शकतो, या भीतीनं गडबडीत लोकांनी घरं सोडली आहेत.इंडोनेशियामध्ये 130हून अधिक जिवंत ज्वालामुखी आहेत. त्यातील माउंट आगुंग या ज्वालामुखीचा 1963मध्ये उद्रेक झाला होता. तेव्हा हजारहून अधिक जणांचा मृत्यू झाला होता.

योगी आदित्यनाथ और बीजेपी पर आंबेडकर को लेकर क्यों भड़कीं मायावती

. मायावती ने सोमवार को बीजेपी सरकार पर पंचायत अध्यक्ष चुनाव में 'सरकारी मशीनरी के दुरुपयोग' का आरोप लगाया था और इस बार हमले के केंद्र में था 'भारत रत्न डॉक्टर भीमराव आंबेडकर स्मारक एवं सांस्कृतिक केंद्र' जिसका मंगलवार को राष्ट्रपति रामनाथ कोविंद ने लखनऊ में शिलान्यास किया. मायावती ने डॉक्टर आंबेडकर के नाम पर सांस्कृतिक केंद्र बनाने को लेकर बीजेपी की मंशा पर सवाल उठाया और इसे एक 'छलावा' बताया. मायावती ने कहा, " बीएसपी परमपूज्य बाबा साहेब डा. अम्बेडकर के नाम पर कोई केन्द्र आदि बनाने के खिलाफ नहीं है. परन्तु अब चुनावी स्वार्थ के लिए यह सब करना घोर छलावा. यूपी सरकार अगर यह काम पहले कर लेती तो मा. राष्ट्रपति जी आज इस केन्द्र का शिलान्यास नहीं बल्कि उदघाटन कर रहे होते तो यह बेहतर होता."मायावती ने आरोप लगाया कि बीजेपी सरकार ने अपने कार्यकाल में डॉक्टर आंबेडकर के 'अनुयायियों की उपेक्षा और उत्पीड़न किया.'उन्होंने सवाल किया, "अब विधानसभा चुनाव के नज़दीक यूपी भाजपा सरकार द्वारा बाबा साहेब के नाम पर 'सांस्कृतिक केन्द्र' का शिलान्यास करना यह सब नाटकबाज़ी नहीं तो और क्या है?"कैसा होगा आंबेडकर केंद्र?राष्ट्रपति कोविंद ने मंगलवार को डॉक्टर आंबेडकर के नाम पर बनने वाले जिस केंद्र का शिलान्यास किया, उत्तर प्रदेश के मुख्यमंत्री योगी आदित्यनाथ ने इसकी परिकल्पना का श्रेय प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी को दिया. उन्होंने ट्विटर पर लिखा, "आदरणीय प्रधानमंत्री श्री नरेंद्र मोदी जी की प्रेरणा से आकार ले रहा भारत रत्न डॉ. भीमराव आंबेडकर स्मारक एवं सांस्कृतिक केंद्र बाबा साहेब डॉ. आंबेडकर जी की स्मृतियों को संरक्षित करेगा."अपनी पांच दिन की उत्तर प्रदेश यात्रा के आखिरी चरण में सांस्कृतिक केंद्र का शिलान्यास करने वाले राष्ट्रपति राम नाथ कोविंद ने कहा, "हमारी वास्तविक कामयाबी देश और समाज को बाबा साहेब डॉक्टर भीमराव आंबेडकर के सिद्धांतो के आधार पर विकसित करने में है."सरकारी प्रसारक के मुताबिक राष्ट्रपति ने लखनऊ में जिस 'सांस्कृतिक केंद्र' का शिलान्यास किया, उसे तैयार करने में प्रदेश सरकार 45.04 करोड़ रुपये खर्च करेगी. यहां 750 सीटों पर वाला एक ऑडिटोरियम, पुस्तकालय, पिक्चर गैलरी, संग्रहालय, बहुउद्देश्यीय हॉल और कैफेटेरिया होगा. सांस्कृतिक केंद्र में डॉक्टर आंबेडकर की एक बड़ी प्रतिमा भी लगाई जाएगी. उत्तर प्रदेश सरकार के मुताबिक ये केंद्र 'डॉक्टर आंबेडकर की यादों को जीवंत बनाए रखेगा.'लेकिन, शिलान्यास के साथ ही इस केंद्र को लेकर बीजेपी की मंशा पर सवाल खड़े होने लगे. मायावती के अलावा बीजेपी के पुराने सहयोगी और सुलेहदेव भारतीय समाज पार्टी के नेता ओम प्रकाश राजभर ने भी बीजेपी के इरादों पर सवाल उठाया और कहा कि इस केंद्र का शिलान्यास चुनावों को ध्यान में रखकर किया गया है. राजभर ने कहा, "चुनाव आ रहे हैं और वो (बीजेपी) बाबा साहेब आंबेडकर की मूर्ति बना रहे हैं. हम इसके विरोध में नहीं हैं लेकिन अब तक कोई विधानसभा में उनकी तस्वीर नहीं लगा सका है. अब उन्हें क्यों याद किया जा रहा है? क्योंकि छह महीने के बाद चुनाव होने हैं."उत्तर प्रदेश में अगले साल की शुरुआत में विधानसभा चुनाव होने हैं. राजभर की पार्टी ने चुनाव के लिए असदुद्दीन ओवैसी की पार्टी से गठजोड़ किया है. ओवैसी बिहार चुनाव में मायावती की पार्टी के साथ गठबंधन में थे लेकिन उत्तर प्रदेश में बहुजन समाज पार्टी और ओवैसी की पार्टी के बीच तालमेल नहीं हुआ है. दोनों ही पार्टियां इसका एलान कर चुकी हैं. चुनाव करीब हैं और ये स्पष्ट है कि हर पार्टी और हर गठजोड़ अपने समीकरणों पर दोबारा ग़ौर करने में जुटा है. राजभर कभी बीजेपी के साथ थे और अब उसे 'डूबती नाव' बता चुके हैं.वहीं, बीते दिनों लंबे समय तक 'निष्क्रीय होने' का आरोप झेलती रहीं बहुजन समाज पार्टी की प्रमुख मायावती भी बीते कुछ दिन से प्रेस कॉन्फ्रेंस और सोशल मीडिया पर प्रतिक्रिया देते हुए सक्रिय नज़र आने लगी हैं. मायावती ने मंगलवार को डॉक्टर आंबेडकर केंद्र के शिलान्यास को लेकर जो तीखी प्रतिक्रिया दी, वो अप्रत्याशित नहीं है. साल 2014 के बाद से ही भारतीय जनता पार्टी क्षेत्रीय दलों से गठजोड़ और नए सांकेतिक प्रयोग के जरिए अपना समाजिक आधार बढ़ाने में जुटी है और इसका सबसे बड़ा नुक़सान मायावती की बहुजन समाज पार्टी को हुआ है. उत्तर प्रदेश में दलित वोटरों की संख्या 21 फ़ीसदी के करीब है. बीते करीब दो दशकों से दलितों की बड़ी आबादी बहुजन समाज पार्टी का समर्थन करती रही है. इस वोट बैंक के साथ दूसरे सामाजिक समीकरण साधकर साल 2007 के विधानसभा चुनाव में मायावती की पार्टी अकेले दम पर सरकार बनाने में कामयाब रही. लेकिन, 2014 के लोकसभा चुनाव के बाद से मायावती की पार्टी के 'वोट बैंक' में सेंध लगती गई. राजनीतिक विश्लेषकों ने इसकी बड़ी वजह बीजेपी की रणनीति को बताया. साल 2014 के लोकसभा चुनाव में बीएसपी को सीट नहीं मिली. साल 2017 के विधानसभा चुनाव में बीएसपी के हिस्से में सिर्फ़ 19 सीटें आईं. दोनों ही चुनावों में बीएसपी को 20 फ़ीसदी से ज़्यादा वोट मिले लेकिन ये परंपरागत वोटरों का एक बड़ा वर्ग पार्टी से छिटकता दिखा. साल 2019 में मायावती की पार्टी ने अखिलेश यादव की समाजवादी पार्टी से गठजोड़ किया और लोकसभा की 10 सीटें जीतने में कामयाब रही लेकिन चुनाव बाद ये साझेदारी टूट गई. समाजवादी पार्टी और बहुजन समाज पार्टी के गठजोड़ के बाद भी बीजेपी उत्तर प्रदेश में 60 से ज़्यादा सीटें जीतने में कामयाब रही और राजनीतिक विश्लेषकों ने इसका श्रेय भी पार्टी के बेहतर सामाजिक प्रबंधन को दिया. साल 2017 के राष्ट्रपति चुनाव में जब बीजेपी ने रामनाथ कोविंद को राष्ट्रपति पद का उम्मीदवार बनाया और जब वो निर्वाचित हुए तो समाजशास्त्री बद्री नारायण और राजनीतिक विश्लेषक महेंद्र सुमन ने बीबीसी से बातचीत में कहा था कि बीजेपी को इसका 'फ़ायदा मिल सकता है.'सुमन की राय थी, "हमारे देश में बहुत सी ऐसी जातियाँ हैं जिनमें मुश्किल से कोई आइकन मिलेगा. बहुत सी जातियों में कोई करोड़पति भी नहीं मिलेगा. अगर उस समुदाय से कोई राष्ट्रपति बनता है तो बहुत बड़ी बात है."इत्तेफ़ाक ये है कि अब जब उत्तर प्रदेश में विधानसभा चुनाव करीब हैं बतौर राष्ट्रपति राम नाथ कोविंद ने डॉक्टर आंबेडकर के नाम पर जिस केंद्र का शिलान्यास किया है, उससे प्रदेश की राजनीति में नई बहस शुरू हो चुकी है. हालांकि, भारतीय जनता पार्टी ने बहुजन समाज पार्टी प्रमुख मायावती के तमाम आरोपों को ख़ारिज कर दिया है. उत्तर प्रदेश के उप मुख्यमंत्री केशव प्रसाद मौर्य ने कहा कि हर बात को राजनीतिक चश्मे से देखना ठीक नहीं है. केशव मौर्य ने कहा, " जिस बात का स्वागत होना चाहिए, उन्हें उसका विरोध नहीं करना चाहिए. उन्हें राजनीतिक चश्मा उतार देना चाहिए. बीएसपी बाबा साहेब और दूसरे नेताओं को सम्मान देती है. हम इसकी आलोचना नहीं करते. बीजेपी भी उनका सम्मान करती है. ख़ासकर बाबा साहेब का जिन्होंने वंचितों और उपेक्षितों के लिए संघर्ष किया."लेकिन, क्या मौर्य का जवाब मायावती को संतुष्ट कर पाएगा. फिलहाल ऐसा लगता तो नहीं.ये भी पढ़ेंउत्तर प्रदेश: क्या ओवैसी की मौजूदगी से होगा ध्रुवीकरण ?मायावती यूपी चुनाव अकेले लड़ेंगी पर वो और उनकी बसपा कितनी सक्रिय हैं?यूपी विधानसभा के ‘सेमी फ़ाइनल’ में बीजेपी की जीत का दावा कैसे कर रहे हैं केशव मौर्य(बीबीसी हिन्दी के एंड्रॉएड ऐप के लिए आप कर सकते हैं. आप हमें , , और पर फ़ॉलो भी कर सकते हैं.)

Gene editing: Is era of designer humans getting closer?

Fix the error in a newly fertilised embryo and - in theory - it would provide a permanent genetic fix that would pass down the generations.Earlier this year, in a world-first, scientists in China announced that they had carried out gene editing in human embryos.They were attempting to correct a gene that causes an inherited blood disorder, beta thalassemia. The laboratory experiments had very mixed results, showing this technology is still in its infancy.It was a key reason why leading science bodies decided to organise the first global summit on gene editing.Not for the first time, ethics is playing catch-up with science.For some patients, gene editing is a technology which should be embraced.Charles Sabine carries the gene for Huntingdon's disease, an incurable brain disorder. The devastating condition affects cognition, movement and personality.His father died of the condition, while his brother John now needs round-the-clock care. Those affected have a 50:50 chance of passing it on to their children.Charles and his wife used embryo screening to ensure that neither of their two children was affected.But gene editing would offer the chance of correcting the fault in affected embryos.He told me: "It's too late for me but this technology offers a glimmer of light for families suffering from genetic diseases.

At the gene editing summit in Washington, there has been heated discussion about whether this embryo editing should ever go from the lab to the clinic.Marcy Darnovsky, executive director, Center for Genetics and Society in California, is not opposed to basic research using gene-edited embryos although she stresses there would still need to be strict controls.But she would like to see international agreements banning the technology from ever being used for reproduction."It's too risky and we don't need it. We already have embryo screening, which in the vast majority of cases allows affected parents to have a healthy child," she said. "This opens the door to a world of genetic haves and have-nots. We don't need more discrimination."But Prof George Church, a geneticist at Harvard Medical School, believes it can and should be allowed."People instinctively had fears about IVF technology at the beginning. This is the same. We need to do the research and once we get through safety and efficacy testing then it can progress to clinical trials," he said.

German ex-CEO of BayernLB bank guilty of bribery

Werner Schmidt was given an 18 month suspended sentence and a 100,000-euro (£79,000) fine by the court in Munich.Haider - who died in 2008 - was governor of Austria's Carinthia state at the time. The bribe was linked to BayernLB's purchase of a troubled Carinthian bank, Hypo Alpe Adria.BayernLB was bailed out in late 2008. Schmidt pleaded guilty to the bribery charge. Seven of his senior colleagues charged with embezzlement were acquitted. The Bavarian state has a majority stake in BayernLB. The bank was among several German Landesbanken (state banks) which got into trouble in the sub-prime mortgage crisis in 2008.Hypo Alpe Adria, the bank that was purchased by BayernLB, was nationalised by the Austrian government in 2009 to prevent it collapsing. The bribery involved a 2.5m-euro football sponsorship deal channelled through a BayernLB subsidiary, Deutsche Kreditbank (DKB), Austrian media reported.

Elecciones en Perú: por qué se está demorando el conteo de votos y quién declara al ganador

Los medios solo informan de la ligera ventaja del izquierdista Pedro Castillo, de Perú Libre, sobre la derechista Keiko Fujimori, de Fuerza Popular.Desde la noche de este domingo, poco después de la votación, la Oficina Nacional de Procesos Electorales (ONPE) ha venido actualizando el avance del conteo casi cada media hora.Desde entonces, la diferencia entre los porcentajes de votación de los candidatos no supera las décimas, y el escrutinio puede extenderse aún durante varios días.Pero esta aparente "demora" en el conteo no es tan inusual. Lo que sucede es que está cobrando relevancia en estas elecciones por lo ajustado de los resultados, explica José Manuel Villalobos, director Ejecutivo del Instituto Peruano de Derecho Electoral (IPDE), a BBC Mundo."Cuando la elección no es apretada y ya se sabe quién ganó, la gente se olvida de que falta completar el conteo. Como la elección está tan cerrada, no podemos dar un ganador hasta que se haya resuelto la mayoría de actas de votación", asegura Villalobos y añade que el cómputo final de resultados puede tardar alrededor de dos semanas.Aquí te contamos cómo es el proceso de conteo que tiene en vilo al país sudamericano.Los medios solo informan de la ligera ventaja del izquierdista Pedro Castillo, de Perú Libre, sobre la derechista Keiko Fujimori, de Fuerza Popular.Desde la noche de este domingo, poco después de la votación, la Oficina Nacional de Procesos Electorales (ONPE) ha venido actualizando el avance del conteo casi cada media hora.Desde entonces, la diferencia entre los porcentajes de votación de los candidatos no supera las décimas, y el escrutinio puede extenderse aún durante varios días.Pero esta aparente "demora" en el conteo no es tan inusual.

Es decir, para que sumen las cifras al conteo general.Los miembros de mesa destruyen las cédulas (boletas) de sufragio de cada votante. "Lo que vale para el conteo general son las actas", dice Villalobos, del IPDE, a BBC Mundo. "No puede haber en Perú un segundo conteo porque ya los votos no existen. Todo queda en las actas".Pero si la papeleta presenta alguna irregularidad —que impide identificar a favor de qué candidato va el voto—, los representantes de los partidos en cada mesa de sufragio pueden impugnar el voto y este no se destruye. En cambio, la cédula se adjunta al acta electoral y esta se envía a un jurado electoral especial (JEE) de la zona correspondiente para que resuelva la impugnación y decida si cuenta el voto o no.Luego de que los peruanos van a votar, los "miembros de mesa" (es decir, los encargados de cada mesa de sufragio) cuentan los votos y registran los resultados en unos documentos llamados "actas electorales".Los miembros escriben en las actas el número de votos que obtuvo Castillo, los que obtuvo Fujimori, los viciados, los nulos, entre otros datos, y las firman.Luego envían las actas electorales a los 104 centros de cómputo (conteo) de las Oficinas Descentralizadas de Procesos Electorales (ODPE) distribuidos en todo el país para que las contabilicen.

El plazo para este recurso venció este miércoles 9 de junio.El pedido de nulidad puede presentarse por cuatro causales, que incluyen irregularidades en la instalación de la mesa, impedir votar a los ciudadanos, permitir la votación de ciudadanos no registrados o fraude. Salvo las acusaciones de fraude, las demás causales requieren que los partidos registren su reclamo en el acta electoral, es decir, antes de enviarla a los centros de cómputo.

Lo que sucede es que está cobrando relevancia en estas elecciones por lo ajustado de los resultados, explica José Manuel Villalobos, director Ejecutivo del Instituto Peruano de Derecho Electoral (IPDE), a BBC Mundo. Aquí te contamos cómo es el proceso de conteo que tiene en vilo al país sudamericano. Luego de que los peruanos van a votar, los "miembros de mesa" (es decir, los encargados de cada mesa de sufragio) cuentan los votos y registran los resultados en unos documentos llamados "actas electorales". Los miembros escriben en las actas el número de votos que obtuvo Castillo, los que obtuvo Fujimori, los viciados, los nulos, entre otros datos, y las firman. "Lo que vale para el conteo general son las actas", dice Villalobos, del IPDE, a BBC Mundo. "No puede haber en Perú un segundo conteo porque ya los votos no existen. Todo queda en las actas". Este lunes, la candidata Fujimori dijo en conferencia de prensa que su partido había detectado "indicios de fraude en mesa" por parte de la agrupación rival, Perú Libre. Sin embargo, el presidente del Jurado Nacional de Elecciones (JNE), Jorge Salas Arenas, descartó la posibilidad de que se hubiera cometido fraude en los comicios. "Mal favor se le hace a la democracia al hablar de fraudes que no existen, no han existido ni van a existir", dijo Salas Arenas de acuerdo a La República. Pero Fujimori insistió y la noche de este miércoles anunció que Fuerza Popular presentaría "acciones de nulidad en 802 mesas a nivel nacional, que representan aproximadamente 200.000 votos, que cuando sean admitidas deben ser retiradas del recuento nacional". De acuerdo al periódico El Comercio, ambos partidos habían impugnado votos. Las impugnaciones y observaciones pueden aplicarse tanto a los votos y actas emitidos en Perú como en el extranjero. Las mayoría de actas de votación de los peruanos en el extranjero debían llegar entre el martes 8 y el miércoles 9 de junio o incluso más tarde, por vía electrónica y en físico en valija diplomática, según la ONPE.Los votos rurales de Perú también pueden tardar algunos días en llegar a los centros de cómputo.

"Cuando la elección no es apretada y ya se sabe quién ganó, la gente se olvida de que falta completar el conteo. Como la elección está tan cerrada, no podemos dar un ganador hasta que se haya resuelto la mayoría de actas de votación", asegura Villalobos y añade que el cómputo final de resultados puede tardar alrededor de dos semanas.

Los miembros de mesa destruyen las cédulas (boletas) de sufragio de cada votante. Salvo las acusaciones de fraude, las demás causales requieren que los partidos registren su reclamo en el acta electoral, es decir, antes de enviarla a los centros de cómputo. En el caso de alegar fraude, los partidos tenían plazo hasta este miércoles para hacerlo y debían presentar pruebas, señala el experto.

Los centros de cómputo de las oficinas descentralizadas de la ONPE pueden "observar" actas electorales por varias razones: si la suma de votos no coincide con la de los votantes registrados, si tienen datos ilegibles, si llegan incompletas, si le faltan firmas o si tienen una solicitud de nulidad. Las impugnaciones y observaciones pueden aplicarse tanto a los votos y actas emitidos en Perú como en el extranjero.

Sarah McClay tiger mauling: Zoo admits breaches over death

Sarah McClay, 24, died at South Lakes Wild Animal Park - now known as South Lakes Safari Zoo - in Dalton-in-Furness, south Cumbria, in May 2013.A Sumatran tiger, which got through an unlocked gate, left deep puncture wounds in her neck and body. The zoo's owner, David Gill, 55, had faced individual charges on the same allegations but was formally acquitted.The prosecution offered no evidence against him.Miss McClay, from Barrow-in-Furness, suffered "unsurvivable" multiple injuries in the attack and was airlifted to hospital where she was formally pronounced dead.Her boyfriend, David Shaw, said it was a "shame it took this long to come to what was a fairly obvious conclusion".In September 2014, an inquest jury in Kendal ruled, in a narrative verdict, the tiger got to Miss McClay by entering two open internal sliding gates within the tiger house and then an open door that led on to the corridor.Systems were in place at the park to ensure animals and keepers remained apart at all times through indoor and outdoor compartments connected by lockable self-closing doors, it heard.The zoo pleaded guilty to contravening the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and failing to ensure people who were not staff were not exposed to risk on the day in question.It accepted it had not sufficiently addressed risks arising from a defective bolt on the door that was open immediately before the attack.The company said "a more proactive maintenance and inspection regime" should have been in place to ensure the door functioned efficiently and that its self-closing mechanism worked properly."The failure of the door to self-close was a more than trivial cause of harm," it said.Sentencing will take place at Preston Crown Court on Friday when the company is expected to receive a financial penalty. Miss McClay, who was originally from Glasgow, had worked at the park for more than two years and was experienced with working with big cats, which she saw as a "privilege".Her mother, Fiona McClay, from Linlithgow, West Lothian, said it was her daughter's "dream job" after she had visited the park as a child.The family asked for Padang not to be put down at the time but he was put to sleep because of his age this year.It can now be reported that the zoo pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing to two other contraventions of the Health and Safety at Work Act when a zoo keeper fell from a ladder while preparing to feed big cats in July 2014.The company admitted it failed to ensure the health, safety and welfare at work of its employees, including Yasmin Walker, and to carry out a suitable and sufficient risk assessment.Barrow Borough Council, which oversees the zoo, is considering whether to renew the park's operating licence, which would have expired on Tuesday but has been extended until a council hearing on 5 July where Mr Gill must show a number of requirements have been met.Inspectors previously demanded more than 30 improvements to the attraction, having found it had placed staff and the public in potential danger.Sarah McClay, 24, died at South Lakes Wild Animal Park - now known as South Lakes Safari Zoo - in Dalton-in-Furness, south Cumbria, in May 2013.A Sumatran tiger, which got through an unlocked gate, left deep puncture wounds in her neck and body.

Super Bowl: ¿dónde surgió el fútbol americano y en qué países se juega además de EE.UU.?

El deporte nacional estadounidense, como muestran los registros históricos, tuvo su semilla en 1861 en Canadá,país donde, por cierto, también se inventó otro de los deportes más seguidos en EE.UU.: el basquetbol.En la Universidad de Toronto fue donde, con un balón ovalado, se comenzó a jugar entre sus estudiantes una disciplina deportiva que tenía como base el rugby inglés y algo de fútbol o balompié. Eso ocurrió ocho años antes del partido entre Rutgers y Princeton de 1869 en Nueva Jersey, reconocido como el primero del fútbol americano universitario en Estados Unidos.Pero otro año también es clave, 1874, cuando la Universidad de Harvard (EE.UU.) se enfrentó a la Universidad McGill (Canadá) en una serie de partidos de la que se considera que surgió el fútbol norteamericano, también llamado fútbol gridiron.Los estadounidenses defienden que el deporte tuvo sus primeros orígenes con las reglas de Harvard de la década de 1870 y luego fue afinado en 1880 con las reglas de Walter Camp, llamado "el padre del fútbol americano".Pero en la Universidad de McGill dicen que el estilo Harvard era más cercano al fútbol (balompié); en cambio, sus reglas incluían el balón oval y la posibilidad de correr con él.Además, advierten que en Harvard más bien se practicaba el juego llamado "Boston Game" y que los estadounidenses copiaron conceptos y estrategias -incluidos los downs (intentos) y las tacleadas- del estilo canadiense.Ya sea que los padres del deporte hayan sido canadienses o estadounidenses, no hay duda de que Estados Unidos ha sido, es y probablemente continuará siendo la potencia mundial del fútbol americano.En la actualidad tiene la liga colegial más grande del mundo (NCAAF, con 130 equipos), la National Football League (NFL, con 32) que genera cientos de millones de dólares cada año, así como la hegemonía casi total en las competencias internacionales.Pero ¿en dónde más se juega este deporte de contacto?El deporte nacional estadounidense, como muestran los registros históricos, tuvo su semilla en 1861 en Canadá,país donde, por cierto, también se inventó otro de los deportes más seguidos en EE.UU.: el basquetbol.En la Universidad de Toronto fue donde, con un balón ovalado, se comenzó a jugar entre sus estudiantes una disciplina deportiva que tenía como base el rugby inglés y algo de fútbol o balompié.

Crisis en Puerto Rico: por qué los graves problemas en la isla no terminan con la salida de Ricardo Rosselló

En menos de dos semanas, un movimiento cívico sin precedentes, con algo de reggaetón y mucho de indignación, colocó a Puerto Rico en el mapa noticioso del mundo y acabó con la renuncia del gobernador, Ricardo Rosselló.La filtración de un chat privado -salpicado de misoginia y homofobia- y el arresto de dos altas figuras de su gobierno acusadas de corrupción fueron la chispa que hizo estallar el polvorín de las inconformidades sociales de los puertorriqueños durante las últimas décadas. "Sin quitarle nada a la palabra, se trata de un hecho revolucionario. Nunca antes la sociedad puertorriqueña se había unido de esta forma para pedir la salida de un gobernante", asegura a BBC Mundo José J. Colón, profesor de Ciencias Políticas de la Universidad de Puerto Rico, recinto de Río Piedras.Las protestas tomaron las principales calles desde mediados de julio.La música, las pancartas, los cacerolazos y las banderas llegaron incluso a lugares más remotos de la isla y, aunque resistió durante más de diez días, Rosselló no tuvo más alternativa: anunció en la noche del miércoles que deja el cargo el venidero 2 de agosto.Sin embargo, la gran pregunta pendiente es en qué medida su renuncia será también un primer paso para resolver los graves problemas de la isla que, en definitiva, fueron la "bomba de tiempo" que hizo finalmente explotar la publicación de los chats."No cabe duda de que Rosselló se tenía que ir. Sus comentarios en esos chats mostraban un desprecio total por principios básicos de derecho humano, de respeto a la dignidad humana y fue legítimo que se pidiera su salida", comenta Colón."Pero también es cierto que el descontento popular detrás de estas protestas tiene su base en otros problemas de fondo que preceden a Rosselló", agrega.

Desde 2006, Puerto Rico vive una desastrosa crisis económica de la que todavía no ve un posible escape. Ese año, el Congreso de EE.UU. suspendió un acuerdo que favorecía a las empresas estadounidenses para que se establecieran en la isla, lo que conllevó a un éxodo de compañías y propició el inicio de la debacle económica.Decenas de miles de puertorriqueños han emigrado desde entonces, los índices de desempleo y pobreza se han disparado, los recortes y la deuda se ha multiplicado y el gobierno se quedó sin fondos."Algunos de los problemas que están ventilando en estas protesta tienen más que ver con una serie de políticas de austeridad, una serie de recorte de gasto público que llevan muchos años molestando a la población", señala Colón.En 2016, Estados Unidos puso en marcha un mecanismo para la restructuración de la deuda, que ascendía entonces a los US$70.000 millones, a cargo de una junta federal de supervisión que tomaría decisiones respecto a los presupuestos del país, en lugar de la gobernación.Desde entonces, esa junta se ha vuelto una figura incómoda, tanto para las autoridades locales como para muchos puertorriqueños, que la consideran una intromisión en los asuntos internos que limita la posibilidades de desarrollo. Y sin mucho que poder hacer en ese sentido al inicio de su gobierno en 2017, Rosselló no tuvo de otra que declarar la isla en bancarrota.Luego llegó el huracán María, que barrió Puerto Rico de un lado a otro con una estela de desolación y muerte: el gobierno reconoce unos 3.000 fallecidos pero según un estudio de Harvard fueron más de 4.600.Además, miles de personas se quedaron sin electricidad por casi un año."Cuando vino el huracán, el gobierno de Puerto Rico contaba con muy pocos recursos y había municipios que, incluso sin el huracán en el horizonte, ya no tenían recursos para recoger la basura o para hacer cosas básicas de su gestión", comenta Colón. "Todo estos eventos más casos de corrupción que se han ido reiterando han creado una creciente polarización en Puerto Rico: hay sectores cada vez más ricos y sectores cada vez más pobres", explica a BBC Mundo Carlos A. Suárez Carrasquillo, profesor de Ciencias Políticas de la Universidad de Florida."Al final todas estas circunstancias que se vienen cargando por décadas actuaron como caldo de cultivo que finalmente explotó con el chat de Ricardo Rosselló. Pero es cierto que hay una serie de eventos que preceden a Rosselló que complican la dinámica de gobernar en Puerto Rico", señala. La Junta Fiscal sigue controlando los gastos y su influencia en la política local, en criterio de muchos, trasciende sus propias funciones. Mientras, los efectos del ciclón se hacen sentir casi dos años después y el gobierno no cuenta con los recursos monetarios o humanos para hacerle frente.

Desde finales de 1898, cuando dejó de ser colonia de España, Puerto Rico vive una situación anormalmente peculiar: no se convirtió, como ocurrió con Cuba, en un país independiente, sino que pasó a manos de EE.UU., sin llegar a ser estado de pleno derecho. Es un "estado libre asociado", lo que implica que sus habitantes son ciudadanos estadounidenses; pero no cuentan con algunos de los deberes, privilegios y ayudas de los que gozan otras partes de EE.UU. En cinco ocasiones los puertorriqueños han llevado a referendo el estatus político de su isla, pero los resultados han sido variados y nunca Washington los ha considerado vinculantes.La relación es también un motivo de división en la isla, entre los que creen que Puerto Rico debería ser independiente y los que opinan que debería unirse a Estados Unidos o, incluso, los que abogan por otras opciones intermedias."Históricamente, el tema que fragmenta la política en Puerto Rico es el de la relación con Estados Unidos: estabilidad, independencia, status quo. Y es un problema que también sigue independientemente del gobernador", señala Suárez Carrasquillo. De acuerdo con Colón, a través de los años, el Partido Progresista, liderado hasta el pasado domingo por Rosselló, encaminó sus esfuerzos a negociar la admisión de Puerto Rico en la federación estadounidense. "Eso ha resultado claramente una fantasía y una estrategia fallida, por las propias objeciones en Estados Unidos que van desde los temores a que se convierta en un estado demócrata, a temas raciales o miedo de que Puerto Rico necesite incentivos contributivos especiales", señala. La compleja relación con Estados Unidos conlleva a que la isla esté sometida además a un régimen especial en el que solo barcos con bandera estadounidense pueden atracar allí, lo que se ha convertido en un obstáculo para su comercio y ha encarecido notablemente los precios de los productos."Sin lugar a dudas, la relación con Estados Unidos es uno de los problemas que también van más allá de Rosselló y que serán un desafío para cualquiera que gobierne", agrega Colón.Desde finales de 1898, cuando dejó de ser colonia de España, Puerto Rico vive una situación anormalmente peculiar: no se convirtió, como ocurrió con Cuba, en un país independiente, sino que pasó a manos de EE.UU., sin llegar a ser estado de pleno derecho.

En menos de dos semanas, un movimiento cívico sin precedentes, con algo de reggaetón y mucho de indignación, colocó a Puerto Rico en el mapa noticioso del mundo y acabó con la renuncia del gobernador, Ricardo Rosselló. "Históricamente, el tema que fragmenta la política en Puerto Rico es el de la relación con Estados Unidos: estabilidad, independencia, status quo. Y es un problema que también sigue independientemente del gobernador", señala Suárez Carrasquillo. De acuerdo con el experto, la gran pregunta es si existe alguien en Puerto Rico que pueda satisfacer las exigencias políticas de este movimiento cívico que lleva dos semanas en las calles de San Juan.

De acuerdo con Colón, a través de los años, el Partido Progresista, liderado hasta el pasado domingo por Rosselló, encaminó sus esfuerzos a negociar la admisión de Puerto Rico en la federación estadounidense.

La filtración de un chat privado -salpicado de misoginia y homofobia- y el arresto de dos altas figuras de su gobierno acusadas de corrupción fueron la chispa que hizo estallar el polvorín de las inconformidades sociales de los puertorriqueños durante las últimas décadas.

أزمة تيغراي: الكنيسة الأرثوذكسية الإثيوبية تتهم آبي أحمد بالسعي إلى "تدمير" الإقليم

.قال البطريرك ماتياس إنه منع من الحديث في وسائل الإعلام بشأن أزمة إقليم تيغراي وفي أول تعليق علني له منذ بدء الحرب في إقليم تيغراي قبل ستة أشهر، قال أبون ماتياس إن الحكومة تعمل ليل نهار لتدمير المنطقة. وقال ماتياس، وهو نفسه من شعب تيغراي، في تسجيل فيديو أرسله مع صديق له إن محاولاته السابقة للتحدث قد "خُنقت وخضعت للرقابة". وأعرب عن أسفه لتدنيس الأديرة الأرثوذكسية القديمة، وقال إن المذابح ارتكبت في أراضي الكنائس. وتصر السلطات الفيدرالية الإثيوبية على أنها تستهدف القيادة الإقليمية لتيغراي وليس المدنيين. ويمثل هذا انتقادا علنيا نادرا من شخصية إثيوبية رفيعة المستوى، للحرب المستمرة منذ ستة أشهر بين جيش رئيس الوزراء، آبي أحمد، ضد القوات الموالية لجبهة تحرير شعب تيغراي. مواضيع قد تهمك نهاية وقال أبون ماتياس، الذي كان يتحدث باللغة الأمهرية، في مقطع فيديو مدته 14 دقيقة: "إنهم يعملون ليل نهار لتدمير تيغراي. ويأخذون قسطا من الراحة عندما يتعلق الأمر بتدمير شعب تيغراي". لماذا بات السودان أكثر تشددا مع إثيوبيا في قضية سد النهضة الكبير؟ لأول مرة، إريتريا تعترف رسمياً بالقتال في إقليم تيغراي الإثيوبي وأضاف: "هناك عمليات قتل في جميع أنحاء تيغراي. إنهم يستهدفون إزالة هذا الشعب من فوق سطح الأرض". وأرسل رئيس الوزراء الإثيوبي، أبي أحمد، الحائز على جائزة نوبل للسلام لعام 2019، قوات إلى تيغراي في أوائل تشرين الثاني/ نوفمبر الماضي، بعد أن اتهم الجبهة الشعبية لتحرير تيغراي بشن هجمات على معسكرات الجيش. وشدد على أن الجيش يستهدف قيادة الجبهة وليس المدنيين. لكن جرى توثيق أعداد كبيرة من الهجمات على المدنيين، تشمل مذابح وعمليات اغتصاب جماعي وحشي، إذ ينحي العديد من الشهود والناجين باللائمة على الجنود الإثيوبيين وقوات من دولة إريتريا المجاورة التي تدعم أبي. وفي التسجيل المرئي، وصف أبون ماتياس ما يجري بأنه "مذبحة للناس، لا سيما قتل الأبرياء". وأعرب البطريرك عن أسفه للضرر الذي لحق بالأديرة الأرثوذكسية الشهيرة في تيغراي، وكذلك المذابح التي ارتكبت في أراضي الكنائس بما في ذلك بلدة دينغولات بالإقليم. وعندما زارت وكالة فرانس برس بلدة دينغولات في فبراير/ شباط الماضي، قال القساوسة إنهم أصيبوا بخيبة أمل لأن القيادة الأرثوذكسية لم تعلق على العنف، لكنهم أعربوا عن اعتقادهم بأن أبون ماتياس وآخرين يخشون على سلامتهم. وتعد الكنيسة الأرثوذكسية هي الأكبر في إثيوبيا، حيث تضم أكثر من 40 في المائة من سكان البلاد البالغ عددهم 110 مليون نسمة. "مقطع فيديو مهرب" قال دينيس وادلي، صديق أبون ماتياس ومدير مجموعة جسور الأمل الدولية ومقرها الولايات المتحدة، لوكالة فرانس برس إنه سجل الفيديو في 26 أبريل/ نيسان الماضي خلال رحلة إلى إثيوبيا. تولى أبونا ماتياس رئاسة الكنيسة الأرثوذكسية في إثيوبيا في عام 2013 وأضاف: "طلب مني البطريرك ألا أفرج عنه حتى أخرج من البلاد، وأعود إلى الولايات المتحدة". وأكد مسؤول أرثوذكسي لوكالة فرانس برس صحة التسجيل. وقال أبونا ماتياس إنه حاول في السابق التحدث ضد الحرب عدة مرات، بما في ذلك في مقابلات إعلامية لكن الحكومة منعته. وقال: "لقد تحدثت ومنعوا حديثي. لقد تحدثت مرة أخرى ومنعوا حديثي. حتى الآن لم تتح لي الفرصة لعرض رسالتي عبر وسائل الإعلام". وعلى الرغم من إعلان أبي أحمد النصر في أواخر نوفمبر/ تشرين الثاني عندما دخل الجيش مدينة ميكيلي، عاصمة إقليم تيغراي، إلا أن القتال الضاري مستمر في المنطقة. ومع استمرار الحرب، يشعر قادة العالم بقلق متزايد بشأن ما وصفه وزير الخارجية الأمريكي، أنتوني بلينكين، الشهر الماضي بأنه "كارثة" إنسانية وشيكة. وقال أبون ماتياس إنه قلق بشأن زيادة معدلات الجوع في تيغراي، واحتمال عدم تمكن المزارعين من زراعة أراضيهم هذا العام. ودعا البطريرك ماتياس إلى تدخل خارجي لتقديم المزيد من المساعدات وإنهاء القتال. وقال "أدعو الحكومات الدولية إلى محاولة وإيجاد طريقة لوقف هذا على الفور".

ولی‌الله سیف؛ سیاست‌گذاری که بحران ارزی هنوز رهایش نمی‌کند

.بر اساس آنچه قوه قضائیه ایران گفته تحقیقات درباره پرونده "تخلفات ارزی" تکمیل شده و او به همراه چند نفر دیگر قرار است در دادسرا حاضر شوند.عمده نکاتی که در پرونده آقای سیف به چشم می‌خورد به عملکرد و سیاست‌های بانک مرکزی در دوران ریاستش در بازار ارز باز می‌گردد؛ پرونده‌ای که به "فساد مدیران سابق بانک مرکزی" موسوم است و خلاصه اتهامات "اخلال در بازار ارز" است.ولی‌الله سیف به مدت ۵ سال از سال ۱۳۹۲ تا تابستان ۱۳۹۷ عهده‌دار سکان رهبری بانک مرکزی ایران بود،.او هم مانند جانشین خود (عبدالناصر همتی) مخالف سیاست ارز ۴۲۰۰ تومانی بود ولی بعد از تلاطم ارزی در سال ۹۷ پرونده‌ای باز شد که پای او و عده‌ای از مدیران به میان آمد.از دیگر متهمان این پرونده احمد عراقچی، معاون ارزی وقت بانک مرکزی در دوران آقای سیف و همچنین سالار آقاخانی، کارگزار سابق بانک مرکزی در بازار ارز است که گفته شده از ایران خارج شده است.با طرح اتهامات علیه آقای سیف، مدتها رسانه‌های رسمی و غیررسمی از او زیاد سخن گفتتد و در آبان ماه دو سال پیش قوه قضائیه"ممنوع‌الخروجی" او را تائید کرد.پس از کنار رفتن آقای سیف از ریاست بانک مرکزی ایران، حسن روحانی او را به عنوان "مشاور رئیس جمهور در امور پولی و بانکی" منصوب کرد ولی دیوان محاسبات این کشور او و معاونانش را به اتهام "تخلفات بانک مرکزی در سال ۹۶" منفصل از خدمت کرد.رئیس سابق بانک مرکزی ایران در اردیبهشت ماه سال ۹۷ و همرمان با تنش‌های ارزی در این کشور در فهرست تحریم‌های آمریکا قرار گرفته بود.اتهامات مدیران سابق بانک مرکزیاتهاماتی را که مقام‌های قضایی ایران متوجه آقای سیف و افراد مرتبط با او کرده‌اند به دوران تلاطم بازار ارز و سکه ایران در اواخر سال ۹۶ و اوایل ۹۷ بازمی‌گردد؛ همان سالی که اجرای سیاست ارز ۴۲۰۰ تومانی با اعلام اسحاق جهانگیری آغاز شد.با اجرای این سیاست، شکاف بین قیمت ارز دولتی و بازار آزاد زیاد شد و عده‌ای را بر آن داشت تا از طریق رانت به سود برسند.قوه قضائیه ایران مدعی است در پرونده "فساد ارزی" راه طولانی را پیموده تا بالاخره به رئیس سابق بانک مرکزی رسیده است.غلامرضا محسنی اژه‌ای، سخنگوی وقت قوه قضائیه ایران در شهریور ماه سال ۹۷ گفته بود: "ما از افراد پایین‌تر به دانه‌درشت‌ها و به نقطه مرکزی می‌رسیم‌. اکنون ما از طریق دلال‌ها به افراد بالاتر رسیدیم‌. مثلا از دلالی در کف سبزه‌میدان به مظلومین و از وی به عراقچی و از او به سیف می‌رسیم." وحید مظلومین، ملقب به "سلطان سکه" از افرادی بود که در آبان ماه آن سال (۱۳۹۷) اعدام شد؛ از جمله اتهامات او "قاچاق ارز و سکه" بود؛ هر چند بعدا گفته شد در زمان دستگیری سکه‌ای نداشته.در کیفرخواست پرونده مدیران سابق بانک مرکزی آمده "اقدامات بانک مرکزی باعث تنش در بازار ارز شده است."دلار آمریکا در اوایل فروردین ماه سال ۹۷ با حدود ۵ هزار تومان کار خود را شروع کرد؛ در بیستم فروردین دلار به صورت دستوری ۴۲۰۰ تومان معرفی شد.دونالد ترامپ در اردیبهشت ماه خروج کشورش از برجام را اعلام کرد و قیمت دلار به صعود ادامه داد؛ در مهر ماه ۹۷ قیمت این ارز تا مرز بیست هزار تومان هم پیش رفت.با معرفی ارز ۴۲۰۰ تومانی و اختلاف قیمت آن با بازار آزاد بعضی منتقدان، بانک مرکزی را مقصر آشفتگی در بازار ارز آن زمان دانستند.بر اساس آنچه قوه قضائیه گفته نیروی انتظامی در روند تحقیقات کف بازار به دو نفر به نام‌های سالار آقاخان و محمداسماعیل قاسمی رسیده که در معاملات فردایی نقش داشتند؛ البته بانک مرکزی و وزارت اطلاعات به قوه قضائیه گفته بودند فعالیت آنها "به دستور این سازمان بوده.از دیگر انتقادهای مطرح شده نسبت به عملکرد بانک مرکزی "فروش بدون سقف سکه" بوده؛ در سال ۹۷ و همزمان با افزایش قیمت ارز و سکه بانک مرکزی در چند مرحله اقدام به فروش سکه کرده بود.در یک مورد فردی بیش از ۳۸ هزار سکه از بانک مرکزی پیش خرید کرده بود.در پرونده مدیران سابق بانک مرکزی، نام احمد عراقچی، برادرزاده عباس عراقچی (معاون وزارت خارجه ایران) و معاون ارزی بانک مرکزی در زمان آقای سیف به چشم می‌خورد؛ به غیر از او کارگزاران بانک مرکزی مانند سالار آقاخانی هم از متهمان این پرونده هستند.سالار آقاخانی که کمتر عکس و نشانی از او در اینترنت یافت می‌شود، متهم ردیف اول پرونده تخلفات ارزی است که هم اکنون متواری است. روزنامه شرق سال پیش در گزارشی خروج او از ایران را تائید کرده بود. او عامل بانک مرکزی در توزیع ارز در بازار بود؛ قوه قضائیه می‌گوید "از او به احمد عراقچی و ولی‌الله سیف رسیده است."آقای آقاخانی در مرداد ماه ۹۷ دستگیر و با وثیقه آزاد می‌شود که بعد از آن به کلی متواری شد؛ او البته پیشتر هم بازداشت شده بود ولی در بازداشت نمانده بود.این کارگزار سابق بانک مرکزی در جلسات دادگاه مدیران بانک مرکزی حضور نداشته و قوه قضائیه می‌گوید بصورت سازمان یافته "بیش از ۱۶۰ میلیون دلار ارز قاچاق کرده است."؛ پرداخت رشوه هم از اتهامات دیگر اوست.اتهامات پرونده مدیران سابق بانک مرکزی به مداخله این بانک در معاملات بازار ارز فردایی ارز برمی‌گردد که گفته شده به درخواست دبیرخانه شورای عالی امنیت ملی و دستور حسن روحانی انجام شده بود.از نیمه مرداد ۹۶ احمد عراقچی، مسئولیت معاونت ارزی بانک مرکزی ایران را بر عهده گرفت؛ در نیمه دوم همان سال با شروع بحران ارزی بانک مرکزی ایران تصمیم گرفت از طریق افراد معتمد خود مداخله پوششی در بازار ارز انجام دهد که در نهایت با سالار آقاخانی به توافق می‌رسد.سالار آقاخانی از سال۹۴ با بانک مرکزی در ارتباط بود و کارگزاران شناخته شده بانک مرکزی بود و با توافق بانک مرکزی در دوران آقای سیف و معاونت احمد عراقچی در تنظیم معاملات فردایی ارز نقش داشت.احمد عراقچی، معاون ارزی سابق بانک مرکزی می‌گوید از آذر ماه تا اسفند ۹۶ این مداخلات ادامه یافت "تا اینکه در ۲۰ اسفند به دلیل مسائلی که ایجاد شد و صفی که پشت در صرافی‌ها ایجاد شد و مسائلی که بود، دوباره این اقدام شروع شد که در همان روز هم با دستگیری سالار آقاخانی خاتمه پیدا کرد."در بازار فردایی معامله‌گران بازار ارز نرخ اعلام می‌کردند و بانک مرکزی از طریق کارگزاران خود کمتر از بالاترین نرخ اعلام شده قیمت می‌داد تا از این طریق نرخ ارز را کاهش دهد.در طول این سه ماه مداخله قیمت دلار حدود ۴۲۰۰ تا ۴۵۰۰ تومان بود.احمد عراقچی می‌گوید: "بعد از دستگیری آقاخانی (در اسفند ۹۶) نه تنها ابزار مداخله بانک مرکزی از طریق آقاخانی قطع شد بلکه اقدامات دیگری هم در حال انجام یا طراحی بود به طور کل متوقف شد."ولی‌الله سیف که پس از ۵ سال سکانداری بانک مرکزی در سال ۹۷ استعفا داد و حالا اتهامات مرتبط با دوران ریاستش را یدک می‌کشد، در تابستان امسال (۱۳۹۹) در گفت و گویی با خبرگزاری فارس به بعضی اتفاقات سال ۹۶ و ۹۷ در بحران ارزی آن زمان اشاره کرده است.او می‌گوید بانک مرکزی با دخالت در بازار فردایی در حال کنترل نرخ ارز بوده تا اینکه کارگزاران این سازمان دستگیر شدند. اشاره او احتمالا به افرادی نظیر سالار آقاخانی است.آقای سیف گفته است: "وقتی نیروی انتظامی آنها را دستگیر کرد یکدفعه همه ابتکار عمل ما از بین رفت. من با آقای دولت آبادی تماس گرفتم و گفتم این کسی که دستگیر شده است عامل بانک مرکزی است. بعد از ۷ یا ۸ روز آزاد شد."با دستگیری این افراد شیوه قبلی اقدام بانک مرکزی متوقف شد. آقای سیف می‌گوید: "اواخر اسفند نرخ ارز در سطح ۴۸۰۰ تومان قرار گرفت و سال ۹۶ با این نرخ بسته شد. اما در فروردین ۹۷ از همان صبح اول فروردین بازار آتش گرفت. اصلا هیچ زمانی چنین اتفاقی نیفتاده بود."جهش نرخ ارز در اواخر سال ۹۶ و در سال ۹۷ همزمان با تشدید فشار و متوجه کردن تقصیر به کانال‌های اعلام نرخ ارز بود.این دوره مسیری را طی کرد که در نهایت به خروج آمریکا از برجام منتهی شد و بازار ارز به دشت ملتهب شد و همزمان فساد ایجاد شده در ماههای اولیه پس از معرفی ارز ۴۲۰۰ تومانی بر فشارها بر بانک مرکزی افزود.آقای سیف معتقد است الزاما پایین بودن نرخ ارز، مطلوب نیست؛ او می‌گوید "اگر همزمان با مصوبه ۲۱ فروردین ۱۳۹۷ هیات دولت (ارز ۴۲۰۰ تومانی) نسبت به اعمال سیاست‌ مناسب تجاری و کنترل تقاضای ارز اقدام می‌شد، التهاب شهریور ۱۳۹۷ در بازار اتفاق نمی‌افتاد."شهریور ۹۷ اوج التهاب ارز در آن سال بود که قیمت دلار به ۲۰ هزار تومان هم رسید.با همه این اوصاف، قوه قضائیه عملکرد بانک مرکزی را در التهابات ارزی آن دوران مقصر می‌داند.پرونده کنونی آقای سیف و آقای عراقچی در چند نوبت به دلیل نقص و همچنین "پیدا شدن زاوایای جدید" برگشت داده شده که حالا سخنگوی قوه قضائیه گفته این پرونده تکمیل شده و آقای سیف هم احضار شده است.

ওই কেন্দ্রের আরও দুজন মহিলা কর্মীকেও আটক করা হয়েছে এবং শিশু বিক্রির আরও সম্ভাব্য অভিযোগ নিয়েও তাদের জিজ্ঞাসাবাদ করা হচ্ছে। ঝাড়খন্ড রাজ্যের শিশু কল্যাণ কমিটি (সি ডবলিউ সি) এই ব্যাপারে অভিযোগ জানানোর পরই পুলিশ এ ক্ষেত্রে ব্যবস্থা নিয়েছে। বিবিসি-র পক্ষ থেকে এ ব্যাপারে মিশনারিজ অব চ্যারিটির প্রতিক্রিয়া জানতে তাদের সঙ্গে যোগাযোগের চেষ্টা করা হয়েছিল, কিন্তু এখনও তাদের কোনও বক্তব্য জানা যায়নি। "আমরা জানতে পেরেছি যে ওই সেন্টার থেকে এর আগেও অনেক শিশুকে অবৈধভাবে বিক্রি করা হয়েছে", বিবিসি হিন্দিকে বলেছেন ঝাড়খন্ড রাজ্যের একজন ঊর্ধ্বতন পুলিশ কর্মকর্তা।পুলিশ এখন ওই বিক্রি হওয়া শিশুদের মায়েদের নামের তালিকা বের করে এই ঘটনার বিস্তারিত তদন্ত শুরু করেছে।ঝাড়খন্ডের রাজধানী রাঁচিতে অবস্থিত মিশনারিজ অব চ্যারিটির ওই সেন্টার থেকে পুলিশ ১ লক্ষ ৪০ হাজার ভারতীয় রুপিও (প্রায় ২১৫০ মার্কিন ডলার) উদ্ধার করেছে, যা শিশু বিক্রির টাকা বলে তাদের সন্দেহ। ভারতে মিশনারিজ অব চ্যারিটির বহু কেন্দ্র রয়েছে, আর তারা অবিবাহিত অথচ গর্ভবতী হয়ে পড়া মায়েদের জন্য অনেক হোমও পরিচালনা করছে।তবে ভারতে শিশু দত্তক নেওয়ার ক্ষেত্রে যে নতুন আইন হয়েছে, তার সঙ্গে খাপ খাওয়াতে না-পেরে তারা বছরতিনেক আগে শিশুদের দত্তক দেওয়া বন্ধ করে দেয়। ভারতে বহু নি:সন্তান দম্পতি মরিয়া হয়ে বেআইনি পথে শিশু কেনেন বলে অভিযোগ আছে। তার কারণ ভারতে দত্তক নেওয়ার আইন খুব জটিল - আর দত্তক নিতে চাওয়া বাবা-মার ওয়েটিং লিস্টও খুব লম্বা।যেমন, সরকারি পরিসংখ্যানই বলছে, ২০১৫-১৬ সালে মাত্র হাজার তিনেক বাচ্চাকে ভারতে আইনসম্মতভাবে দত্তক নেওয়া হয়েছে। অথচ অন্তত বারো হাজার দম্পতি ভারতে শিশু দত্তক নেওয়ার জন্য অপেক্ষা করছেন।ঝাড়খন্ডে সরকারের শিশু কল্যাণ কমিটির প্রধান রূপা কুমারী বিবিসিকে জানান, "মিশনারিজ অব চ্যারিটি থেকে কর্মীরা উত্তরপ্রদেশের এক দম্পতির কাছে সদ্যজাত একটি শিশুকে ১ লক্ষ ২০ হাজার রুপিতে বিক্রি করেছে - আমরা এখন এই অভিযোগের তদন্ত করছি।"তবে ওই দম্পতি তাদের বলেছেন, সেন্টারের হাসপাতালের উন্নয়নের জন্যই না কি ওই টাকা তারা দান করেছিলেন।কিন্তু রূপা কুমারী বলছেন, তাদের তথ্য অনুযায়ী গত ১৯শে মার্চ ওই সেন্টারে এসেছিলেন এক অন্ত:স্বত্ত্বা তরুণী - তিনিই কিছুদিন পরে একটি সন্তানের জন্ম দেন এবং ওই শিশুটিকে ১৪ই মে উত্তরপ্রদেশের ওই দম্পতির কাছে বিক্রি করে দেওয়া হয়।এর আগেও ভারতের বিভিন্ন শহরে নি:সন্তান দম্পতিদের কাছে ওই সেন্টার থেকে ৫০ থেকে ৭০ হাজার রুপির বিনিময়ে শিশুদের বিক্রি করা হয়েছে বলেও কমিটি জানতে পেরেছে। এই অভিযোগ সামনে আসার পর রাঁচিতে ওই সেন্টার থেকে ১৩জন গর্ভবতী মহিলাকে কমিটি অন্য জায়গায় সরিয়ে নিয়ে গেছে।১৯৯৭ সালে প্রয়াত মাদার তেরেসা আজ থেকে ৬৮ বছর আগে মিশনারিজ অব চ্যারিটি প্রতিষ্ঠা করেছিলেন। নোবেল পুরস্কারজয়ী মাদারের প্রতিষ্ঠিত ওই সংস্থার বিশ্ব জুড়ে অজস্র কেন্দ্রে তিন হাজারেরও বেশি সন্ন্যাসিনী যুক্ত আছেন। তারা বিশ্বের নানা প্রান্তে বহু হসপিস, স্যুপ কিচেন, কুষ্ঠ নিরাময় কেন্দ্র, স্কুল ও পরিত্যক্ত শিশুদের জন্য আশ্রয়কেন্দ্রও চালান।

Battle of Northampton car park plan brings more than 100 objections

Delapre Golf Club, in Eagle Drive, has attracted criticism from heritage organisations and concerned people.The club said it had now carried out an archaeological survey for the 41-car site and found "nothing significant".But the Northampton Battlefield Society said lead shot and a silver brooch found there were "very important".In January the golf club illegally cleared an area thought to be near where the Battle of Northampton was fought in 1460 during the War of the Roses.The battle is believed to have seen artillery used for the first time in a conflict in England.The golf club stripped about 13ins (30cm) from the site before the borough council stepped in and ordered it be restored.An archaeological assessment then discovered post-medieval lead shot, horse tack and a 14th Century silver annular brooch.The planning application states these discoveries were of "no importance".But the club said it would protect "any further archaeology below ground" found during car park work."A medieval brooch and potentially significant finds of round shot that could revise the understanding of the early use of handguns in England are detailed in the archaeological report," the battlefield society said. "It is essential the whole battlefield be archaeologically investigated before any steps to develop the site damage this historical environment," it added, while calling for the application to be "rejected outright".Other organisations objecting to the development include the Battlefields Trust, Tudor Society, Richard III Society, Historic Gardens and Naseby Battlefield Project.Northampton Borough Council will consider the application at a planning committee meeting in September.

Delapre Golf Club, in Eagle Drive, has attracted criticism from heritage organisations and concerned people.The club said it had now carried out an archaeological survey for the 41-car site and found "nothing significant".But the Northampton Battlefield Society said lead shot and a silver brooch found there were "very important".In January the golf club illegally cleared an area thought to be near where the Battle of Northampton was fought in 1460 during the War of the Roses.The battle is believed to have seen artillery used for the first time in a conflict in England.The golf club stripped about 13ins (30cm) from the site before the borough council stepped in and ordered it be restored.An archaeological assessment then discovered post-medieval lead shot, horse tack and a 14th Century silver annular brooch.The planning application states these discoveries were of "no importance".But the club said it would protect "any further archaeology below ground" found during car park work.

PM Shinzo Abe berjanji akan hadapi Korea Utara secara tegas

Berdasarkan jajak pendapat Minggu (22/10), koalisi di bawah pimpinan Partai Liberal Demokrat (LDP) diperkirakan akan mengusai dua pertiga dari kursi di Majelis Rendah.Shinzo Abe mengatakan tugas yang akan segera dilaksanakan adalah menggunakan diplomasi tegas untuk mengatasi Korea Utara terkait ambisi senjata nuklirnya."Sebagaimana saya janjikan dalam pemilihan umum, tugas yang perlu segera dilakukan adalah menangani Korea Utara secara tegas," kata Abe."Untuk mencapai tujuan itu, diperlukan diplomasi yang kuat," tambahnya.Ia menginginkan perubahan konstitusi negara itu sehingga peran militer dapat diperluas.Pada tanggal 25 September Perdana Menteri Shinzo Abe mengumumkan pemilihan umum awal dengan alasan ia memerlukan mandat baru untuk mengatasi "krisis nasional" di tengah ketegangan dan ancaman dari Korea Utara yang berkali-kali telah melakukan uji coba nuklir dan rudal.Korea Utara telah mengancam untuk "menenggelamkan" Jepang ke laut. Korea Utara juga telah menembakkan dua rudal ke arah wilayah Hokkaido, sebuah pulau di Jepang bagian utara.Jika hasil penghitungan suara menunjukkan kemenangan Shinzo Abe, maka perkembangan itu akan memperkuat peluangnya untuk dipilih lagi dalam pemilihan ketua LDP September tahun depan.Pemilihan kembali sebagai ketua LDP juga akan memberikan peluang kepadanya untuk mencatatkan diri sebagai perdana menteri yang paling lama berkuasa di Jepang setelah dipilih pada tahun 2012.

ગર્ભપાત માટે પરવાનગી આપવી કે નહીં? સવિતાના મૃત્યુ પછી લોકમત લેવાયા

પ્રવીણ હલપ્પાનેવર બીબીસીને જણાવ્યું હતું કે, "સવિતાના ગર્ભપાત સિવાય અન્ય કોઈ વિકલ્પ નહોતો, પણ હોસ્પિટલે ગર્ભપાત કરવાનો ઇનકાર કર્યો હતો અને સવિતાની સ્થિતિ ગંભીર થઈ ગઈ હતી,"તેમના બાળકનું મૃત્યુ થયું અને સવિતાની તબિયત વધારે ખરાબ થઈ ગઈ, તેમના કેટલાક અંગોએ કામ કરવાનું બંધ કરી દીધું હતું, છેલ્લે 28 ઓક્ટોબર, 2012 ના રોજ સવિતા પણ મૃત્યુ પામ્યા. ત્યારે તેઓ 31 વર્ષના હતા.સવિતાના મૃત્યુના સમાચાર આંતરરાષ્ટ્રીય સ્તરે પહોંચ્યા કે ગર્ભપાતની મંજૂરી ન મળવાના કારણે તેમનું મૃત્યુ થયું. ત્યારબાદ આયર્લેન્ડમાં ગર્ભપાત પરનો પ્રતિબંધ હટાવવાની માંગ વધવા લાગી.પછી લગભગ 2,000 આંદોલનકારીઓએ આયર્લૅન્ડના ગર્ભપાત કાયદામાં ફેરફાર કરવાની માગ સાથે ડબ્લિનની સંસદ બહાર વિરોધ પ્રદર્શન યોજ્યું. લંડન સ્થિત આયર્લૅન્ડના દૂતાવાસ બહાર પણ એક વિરોધ પ્રદર્શન યોજાયું.ગર્ભપાત પર પ્રતિબંધ લાદતા કાયદો હવે આયર્લેન્ડમાં ચર્ચાનો વિષય છે. ગર્ભપાત પર પ્રતિબંધ હોવો જોઈએ અને ગર્ભપાત પર કોઈ પ્રતિબંધ ન હોવો જોઈએ, એવા બે મત ધરાવતા વર્ગો દેશમાં છે.આગામી 25 મી મેના રોજ આયર્લૅન્ડમાં ગર્ભપાતનો કાયદો બદલવો કે કેમ તે અંગે લોકમત લેવામાં આવશે. આયર્લૅન્ડના બંધારણ પ્રમાણે, ગર્ભપાત ગુનો છે અને ગર્ભપાત કરાવવા બદલ 14 વર્ષની કેદની સજા થઈ શકે છે.આજે પણ, ગર્ભપાત કરાવવાની જરૂર સર્જાય તો આયર્લૅન્ડની છોકરીઓ ઇંગ્લેન્ડજતી હોય છે. તેથી જ ગર્ભપાત પરના આવા પ્રતિબંધનો આયર્લૅન્ડમાં મહિલાઓ વિરોધ કરે છે.લ્યુસી ગર્ભપાત પર પ્રતિબંધનો વિરોધ કરે છે અને પ્રતિબંધ હટાવવાની માગણી કરે છે. બે વર્ષ પહેલાં લ્યુસી ગર્ભવતી હતી.લ્યુસીએ તેની સાથેની ગર્ભવતી મહિલાઓને કહ્યું હતું, તે બાળક નહોતી ઈચ્છતી. લ્યુસીએ આખરે ગર્ભપાત કરવાનો નિર્ણય કર્યો. લ્યુસી જાણતા હતાં કે આયર્લેન્ડમાં ગર્ભપાત કરવું શક્ય નહોતું.તેમણે ઇન્ટરનેટ પર આ વિશે માહિતી એકઠી કરવાનું શરૂ કર્યું.લ્યુસીનો જન્મ ઇંગ્લેન્ડમાં થયો હોવાથી તે નેશનલ હેલ્થ સર્વિસ (એનએચએસ)માં સારવાર લેવા માટે સક્ષમ હતી. લ્યુસીને માત્ર લંડન પહોંચવાનો ખર્ચ કરવાનો હતો. પરંતુ તેમના પાસપોર્ટની મુદત પૂરી થઈ ગઈ હોવાથી વધુ છ અઠવાડિયા સુધી રાહ જોવી પડી હતી. આ સમય દરમિયાન ગર્ભાવસ્થાના સંકેતો દેખાવા લાગ્યા હતાં.લ્યુસી કહે છે કે, "હું ગર્ભવતી હતી ત્યારે ઊંઘી નહોતી શકી, હું ગર્ભવતી છુપાવવા માટે પ્રયાસ કરતી હતી. તે સમયે હું બહું ડરી ગઈ હતી,"આખરે લ્યુસીનો પાસપોર્ટ મળ્યો, તેમણે લંડનમાં ગર્ભપાત કરાવવા માટે ક્લિનિકમાં અપૉઇન્ટમેન્ટ લીધી હતી, લ્યુસીને લંડન જઈને એક દિવસમાં ઘરે પરત આવવું હતું.લ્યુસી કહે છે કે, "હું વહેલી સવારે એરપોર્ટ પહોંચી અને ત્યાંથી સીધા લંડન પહોંચી ગઈ. મને કંઇ જ ભાન નહોતું, કારણ કે મારું ઓપરેશન થવાનું હતું. ઘણી યુવતીઓ પરિવારજનો સાથે ક્લિનિકમાં આવી હતી. મને પણ કોઈના આધારની જરૂર હતી, પણ ..."લ્યુસી કહે છે કે, "મારું ઓપરેશન થઈ ગયું અને પછી એરપોર્ટ સુધી જવા માટે હું એક ટ્રેનમાં ગઈ. ટ્રેનાં બેસવાની જગ્યા નહોતી, અને મારે ઊભા રહીને જ પ્રવાસ કરવો પડ્યો. હું એક દિવસમાં જ લંડન જઈને ઘરે પરત આવી.""જ્યારે હું ગર્ભપાત કરાવવા ગઈ ત્યારે, મને કોઈ અન્ય કોઈ ગર્ભપાત કરાવનાર વ્યક્તિની ખબર નહોતી. હું બીજા દેશમાં હતી કેમ કે મારે ગર્ભપાત કરાવવા મારો દેશ છોડવો પડ્યો અને ગર્ભપાત કરાવવું મારા દેશમાં શક્ય હતું જ નહીં.."તે પછી, લ્યુસીએ ગર્ભપાતનો અધિકાર મેળવવા માટે ચળવળમાં ભાગ લેવાનું શરૂ કર્યું.આયર્લૅન્ડમાં હવે આ પ્રકારે ગર્ભપાત કરાવવાનું ચલણ વધી રહ્યું છે. કારણકે, આયર્લેન્ડમાં ગર્ભપાતને મંજૂરી નથી. આયર્લૅન્ડની આશરે 12 જેટલીમહિલાઓ દરરોજ લંડનમાં જઈને ગર્ભપાત કરાવે છે.લ્યુસી જેવી ઘણી છોકરીઓ ગર્ભપાતનો વિરોધ કરવા આગળ આવી છે.આયર્લૅન્ડના આરોગ્ય વિભાગન આંકડા પ્રમાણે મહિલાના જીવનું જોખમ હોવાથી 2016માં 25 ગર્ભપાતોને મંજૂરી આપવામાં આવી હતી.અનઅધિકૃત રીતે ગર્ભપાત કરાવવા બદલ 14 વર્ષની કેદની સજા થઈ શકે છે. 2016માં કુલ 3,265 સ્ત્રીઓએ યુ.કે. જઈને ગર્ભપાત કરાવ્યો હોવાનું નોંધાયું છે.આ પ્રકારની ઘટનાઓ પછી, 2017માં કાયદામાં ફેરફાર અંગે વિચારણા કરવા માટે ત્યાંની સરકારે એક સમિતિની સ્થાપના કરવામાં આવી હતી. આયર્લૅન્ડના બંધારણની આઠમી કલમમાં કોઈ પ્રકારનો ગર્ભપાત ન કરવા જણાવ્યું છે. સમિતિએ સૂચવ્યું હતું કે આ કલમ બદલી શકાય અથવા કલમમાં જ સુધારો કરવો જોઈએ.એના પરિણામ રૂપે આઠમી કલમ બદલવી જોઇએ જેથી ભવિષ્યમાં ગર્ભપાતના નવા કાયદા બનાવી શકાય.જો, આઠમી કલમમાં ફેરફાર કરવા અંગે મોટાભાગના આઇરિશ લોકો તરફેણ કરી રહ્યાં છે. ગર્ભાવસ્થાના પ્રથમ 12 અઠવાડિયા દરમિયાન મહિલા ગર્ભપાત કરાવી શકે છે. જો, 12 અઠવાડિયા બાદ, મહિલાની તબિયતને જોખમ હોય તો જ ગર્ભપાત કરાવાની મંજૂરી આપવામાં આવે છે.આયર્લેન્ડના વડાપ્રધાન લીઓ વરદકર, ભારતીય મૂળના છે. મહારાષ્ટ્રનું સિંધૌદુર્ગ તેમનું મૂળ ગામ છે.મરાઠી કુટુંબમાં ઉછર્યા હોવાના કારણે ગર્ભપાતના કિસ્સા અંગે તેમની ભૂમિકા મહત્વપૂર્ણ રહેશે.બીબીસી સાથેની વાતચીતમાં વરાડકરે કહ્યું હતું કે, "ગર્ભપાત પરનો વર્તમાન પ્રતિબંધ યથાવત રાખવો કે હટાવી દેવો એ અંગેનો નિર્ણય હવે આયર્લેન્ડના લોકો લેશે. આંદોલનકારીઓ પોસ્ટર્સ પર ડાઉન સિન્ડ્રોમનો ભોગ બનેલા બાળકોના ફોટો ઉપયોગમાં લે છે, તે ખૂબ જ ખોટું છે."

ભારતમાં જન્મેલાં સવિતા હલપ્પાનાવર, 31 વર્ષની ઉંમરે 2012 માં ગર્ભપાતની મંજૂરી ન મળતાં આયર્લેન્ડમાં મૃત્યુ પામ્યાં હતાં.

ત્યારબાદ આયર્લેન્ડમાં ગર્ભપાત પરનો પ્રતિબંધ હટાવવાની માંગ વધવા લાગી. ગર્ભપાત પર પ્રતિબંધ લાદતા કાયદો હવે આયર્લેન્ડમાં ચર્ચાનો વિષય છે. તેથી જ ગર્ભપાત પરના આવા પ્રતિબંધનો આયર્લૅન્ડમાં મહિલાઓ વિરોધ કરે છે.

પ્રવીણ હલપ્પાનેવર બીબીસીને જણાવ્યું હતું કે, "સવિતાના ગર્ભપાત સિવાય અન્ય કોઈ વિકલ્પ નહોતો, પણ હોસ્પિટલે ગર્ભપાત કરવાનો ઇનકાર કર્યો હતો અને સવિતાની સ્થિતિ ગંભીર થઈ ગઈ હતી,"તેમના બાળકનું મૃત્યુ થયું અને સવિતાની તબિયત વધારે ખરાબ થઈ ગઈ, તેમના કેટલાક અંગોએ કામ કરવાનું બંધ કરી દીધું હતું, છેલ્લે 28 ઓક્ટોબર, 2012 ના રોજ સવિતા પણ મૃત્યુ પામ્યા. સવિતાના મૃત્યુના સમાચાર આંતરરાષ્ટ્રીય સ્તરે પહોંચ્યા કે ગર્ભપાતની મંજૂરી ન મળવાના કારણે તેમનું મૃત્યુ થયું. ગર્ભપાત પર પ્રતિબંધ લાદતા કાયદો હવે આયર્લેન્ડમાં ચર્ચાનો વિષય છે. આયર્લૅન્ડના બંધારણ પ્રમાણે, ગર્ભપાત ગુનો છે અને ગર્ભપાત કરાવવા બદલ 14 વર્ષની કેદની સજા થઈ શકે છે. આજે પણ, ગર્ભપાત કરાવવાની જરૂર સર્જાય તો આયર્લૅન્ડની છોકરીઓ ઇંગ્લેન્ડજતી હોય છે. પરંતુ તેમના પાસપોર્ટની મુદત પૂરી થઈ ગઈ હોવાથી વધુ છ અઠવાડિયા સુધી રાહ જોવી પડી હતી. આયર્લૅન્ડની આશરે 12 જેટલીમહિલાઓ દરરોજ લંડનમાં જઈને ગર્ભપાત કરાવે છે. આયર્લૅન્ડના આરોગ્ય વિભાગન આંકડા પ્રમાણે મહિલાના જીવનું જોખમ હોવાથી 2016માં 25 ગર્ભપાતોને મંજૂરી આપવામાં આવી હતી. જો, 12 અઠવાડિયા બાદ, મહિલાની તબિયતને જોખમ હોય તો જ ગર્ભપાત કરાવાની મંજૂરી આપવામાં આવે છે. મરાઠી કુટુંબમાં ઉછર્યા હોવાના કારણે ગર્ભપાતના કિસ્સા અંગે તેમની ભૂમિકા મહત્વપૂર્ણ રહેશે.

2016માં કુલ 3,265 સ્ત્રીઓએ યુ. કે. જઈને ગર્ભપાત કરાવ્યો હોવાનું નોંધાયું છે. ત્યારબાદ આયર્લેન્ડમાં ગર્ભપાત પરનો પ્રતિબંધ હટાવવાની માંગ વધવા લાગી. ગર્ભપાત પર પ્રતિબંધ લાદતા કાયદો હવે આયર્લેન્ડમાં ચર્ચાનો વિષય છે. ગર્ભપાત પર પ્રતિબંધ હોવો જોઈએ અને ગર્ભપાત પર કોઈ પ્રતિબંધ ન હોવો જોઈએ, એવા બે મત ધરાવતા વર્ગો દેશમાં છે. આજે પણ, ગર્ભપાત કરાવવાની જરૂર સર્જાય તો આયર્લૅન્ડની છોકરીઓ ઇંગ્લેન્ડજતી હોય છે. તેથી જ ગર્ભપાત પરના આવા પ્રતિબંધનો આયર્લૅન્ડમાં મહિલાઓ વિરોધ કરે છે. મને કંઇ જ ભાન નહોતું, કારણ કે મારું ઓપરેશન થવાનું હતું. કારણકે, આયર્લેન્ડમાં ગર્ભપાતને મંજૂરી નથી. આયર્લૅન્ડની આશરે 12 જેટલીમહિલાઓ દરરોજ લંડનમાં જઈને ગર્ભપાત કરાવે છે. આયર્લૅન્ડના આરોગ્ય વિભાગન આંકડા પ્રમાણે મહિલાના જીવનું જોખમ હોવાથી 2016માં 25 ગર્ભપાતોને મંજૂરી આપવામાં આવી હતી. અનઅધિકૃત રીતે ગર્ભપાત કરાવવા બદલ 14 વર્ષની કેદની સજા થઈ શકે છે. ગર્ભાવસ્થાના પ્રથમ 12 અઠવાડિયા દરમિયાન મહિલા ગર્ભપાત કરાવી શકે છે. જો, 12 અઠવાડિયા બાદ, મહિલાની તબિયતને જોખમ હોય તો જ ગર્ભપાત કરાવાની મંજૂરી આપવામાં આવે છે. બીબીસી સાથેની વાતચીતમાં વરાડકરે કહ્યું હતું કે, "ગર્ભપાત પરનો વર્તમાન પ્રતિબંધ યથાવત રાખવો કે હટાવી દેવો એ અંગેનો નિર્ણય હવે આયર્લેન્ડના લોકો લેશે. આંદોલનકારીઓ પોસ્ટર્સ પર ડાઉન સિન્ડ્રોમનો ભોગ બનેલા બાળકોના ફોટો ઉપયોગમાં લે છે, તે ખૂબ જ ખોટું છે.

Julian Assange: por qué Chelsea Manning, la confidente de WikiLeaks, está en prisión pese a haber sido indultada por Obama

Aun así, Chelsea Manning, vuelve a estar encarcelada.La exsoldado del ejército estadounidense, conocida como Bradley Manning antes de hacer pública su transexualidad, es considerada una pieza clave de WikiLeaks: la persona que ayudó al fundador del portal, el hacker Julian Assange, a acceder en 2010 a miles de documentos secretos de Estados Unidos.El Departamento de Justicia de EE.UU. lo consideró como "una de las mayores filtraciones de información clasificada en la historia de EE.UU.".En concreto, Manning filtró al portal más de 700.000 documentos clasificados, entre ellos, secretos sobre las guerras de Irak y Afganistán y cables del Departamento de Estado, lo que supuso un duro revés para la diplomacia estadounidense.Aun así, Chelsea Manning, vuelve a estar encarcelada.La exsoldado del ejército estadounidense, conocida como Bradley Manning antes de hacer pública su transexualidad, es considerada una pieza clave de WikiLeaks: la persona que ayudó al fundador del portal, el hacker Julian Assange, a acceder en 2010 a miles de documentos secretos de Estados Unidos.El Departamento de Justicia de EE.UU. lo consideró como "una de las mayores filtraciones de información clasificada en la historia de EE.UU.".En concreto, Manning filtró al portal más de 700.000 documentos clasificados, entre ellos, secretos sobre las guerras de Irak y Afganistán y cables del Departamento de Estado, lo que supuso un duro revés para la diplomacia estadounidense.La exsoldado fue detenida en 2010 y sentenciada en 2013 por la filtración. Estuvo en prisión hasta 2017, cuando el entonces presidente de EE.UU., Barack Obama, le concedió un perdón a tres días de abandonar la Casa Blanca.Assange, por su parte, acabó refugiándose en la Embajada de Ecuador en Londres, donde pasó casi siete años hasta que fue detenido este jueves. No obstante, el periodo de "libertad" de Manning duró poco. La exanalista de inteligencia militar fue encarcelada de nuevo el pasado 8 de marzo por negarse a testificar ante un gran jurado sobre una investigación a WikiLeaks.El juez federal Claude Hilton, de Alexandria (Virgina, EE.UU.) ordenó que permanezca recluida hasta que decida testificar o hasta que el gran jurado que lleva la investigación haya completado su trabajo sobre WikiLeaks.La exsoldado defendió que ya declaró todo lo que sabía durante su proceso ante el tribunal militar que la juzgó.Manning, de 31 años, respondió al juez que "aceptaría lo que le impusiera", pero no testificaría, según la agencia de noticias Associated Press (AP)."No participaré en un proceso secreto al que me opongo moralmente, en concreto, uno que ha sido usado para atrapar y perseguir a activistas por su discurso político", dijo en un comunicado recogido por AP.La fiscalía estadounidense lleva años investigando a WikiLeaks y el pasado mes de noviembre los fiscales revelaron posibles cargos contra su fundador, Julian Assange, en documentos judiciales sobre otro caso.En este segundo periodo de confinamiento, Manning fue encerrada en régimen de aislamiento, según denunció un grupo de apoyo a la exsoldado, autodenominado "Chelsea Resist!" (¡Resiste, Chelsea!).El 4 de abril, desde su cuenta oficial de Twitter se informó que se había puesto fin a esa mencionada reclusión en solitario tras 28 días en esa situación.La defensa de la exsoldado ha pedido su liberación a la espera de que se falle su recurso de apelación. De acuerdo con una de las abogadas que la defienden, Moira Meltzer-Cohen, encarcelar a Manning de nuevo fue "un acto de crueldad", que podría resolverse con prisión domiciliaria. Sin embargo, esta vez desde la Casa Blanca no parece que haya vientos a su favor. A principios de 2017, el presidente Donald Trump la llegó a calificar de "traidora desagradecida" y consideró que "nunca debería haber sido liberada".

Manning fue destinada a Irak como analista de inteligencia y desde allí comenzó a recopilar los documentos que posteriormente filtró a WikiLeaks en 2010.Entre los documentos que consiguió enviar al portal, estaba un video de un helicóptero de las fuerzas estadounidenses que mataba a 12 civiles -entre ellos, dos periodistas- en Bagdad en 2007, y miles de mensajes controvertidos entre diplomáticos de este país.En una corte militar, Manning fue declarada culpable de 20 cargos, entre ellos el de espionaje, si bien fue absuelta de la acusación más grave: ayudar al enemigo.La exsoldado defendió la filtración de WikiLeaks argumentando que quería abrir el debate público en Estados Unidos sobre el rol de las fuerzas armadas y la política exterior del país.No obstante, posteriormente pidió perdón por "dañar a Estados Unidos", señalando que se equivocó al creer que "podía cambiar el mundo a mejor".Estados Unidos sostuvo que la filtración puso vidas en peligro.Manning cumplió 7 años de prisión, hasta que su condena fue conmutada por el expresidente Barack Obama.Su sentencia fue la mayor por una filtración en la historia de EE.UU., y Obama consideró que era "desproporcionada".Los republicanos criticaron duramente la decisión del mandatario demócrata de indultarla, pues consideraron que sentaba un "peligroso precedente".Manning fue destinada a Irak como analista de inteligencia y desde allí comenzó a recopilar los documentos que posteriormente filtró a WikiLeaks en 2010.Entre los documentos que consiguió enviar al portal, estaba un video de un helicóptero de las fuerzas estadounidenses que mataba a 12 civiles -entre ellos, dos periodistas- en Bagdad en 2007, y miles de mensajes controvertidos entre diplomáticos de este país.En una corte militar, Manning fue declarada culpable de 20 cargos, entre ellos el de espionaje, si bien fue absuelta de la acusación más grave: ayudar al enemigo.La exsoldado defendió la filtración de WikiLeaks argumentando que quería abrir el debate público en Estados Unidos sobre el rol de las fuerzas armadas y la política exterior del país.No obstante, posteriormente pidió perdón por "dañar a Estados Unidos", señalando que se equivocó al creer que "podía cambiar el mundo a mejor".Estados Unidos sostuvo que la filtración puso vidas en peligro.Manning cumplió 7 años de prisión, hasta que su condena fue conmutada por el expresidente Barack Obama.Su sentencia fue la mayor por una filtración en la historia de EE.UU., y Obama consideró que era "desproporcionada".Los republicanos criticaron duramente la decisión del mandatario demócrata de indultarla, pues consideraron que sentaba un "peligroso precedente".

"No participaré en un proceso secreto al que me opongo moralmente, en concreto, uno que ha sido usado para atrapar y perseguir a activistas por su discurso político", dijo en un comunicado recogido por AP.La fiscalía estadounidense lleva años investigando a WikiLeaks y el pasado mes de noviembre los fiscales revelaron posibles cargos contra su fundador, Julian Assange, en documentos judiciales sobre otro caso. De acuerdo con una de las abogadas que la defienden, Moira Meltzer-Cohen, encarcelar a Manning de nuevo fue "un acto de crueldad", que podría resolverse con prisión domiciliaria. A principios de 2017, el presidente Donald Trump la llegó a calificar de "traidora desagradecida" y consideró que "nunca debería haber sido liberada". Manning cumplió 7 años de prisión, hasta que su condena fue conmutada por el expresidente Barack Obama.

No obstante, el periodo de "libertad" de Manning duró poco. La exanalista de inteligencia militar fue encarcelada de nuevo el pasado 8 de marzo por negarse a testificar ante un gran jurado sobre una investigación a WikiLeaks. Manning, de 31 años, respondió al juez que "aceptaría lo que le impusiera", pero no testificaría, según la agencia de noticias Associated Press (AP).

London Underground ticket office closures to be reviewed

Sadiq Khan said London TravelWatch, an independent watchdog, would look at the impact of closures on passengers, particularly disabled users.The closures, which were agreed under previous mayor Boris Johnson to help save costs and pay for the Night Tube, led to strike action by unions.The TSSA union welcomed the review. It said the closures had done "nothing" to improve passenger services. "They have endangered passenger safety by causing dangerous bottle-necking on stations, especially at peak times; diminished services, especially for disabled people, and made the Tube a less user-friendly place to travel," general secretary Manuel Cortes said.He added that putting customer service staff on platforms had increased pressures on the Tube network and made it a less safe place to work.The first ticket offices closed in February last year.Transport for London (TfL) said the plan would save £50m annually.In announcing the review, Mr Khan said: "Millions of Londoners use stations across our transport network every day and it's vital that everyone feels safe and gets the right support and information they need when they travel around our city."With the launch of the Night Tube, and our continuing modernisation of London's transport infrastructure, we particularly need to ensure disabled people get the right assistance when they need it and make sure no-one feels unsafe around our more quiet stations late at night."Sadiq Khan said London TravelWatch, an independent watchdog, would look at the impact of closures on passengers, particularly disabled users.The closures, which were agreed under previous mayor Boris Johnson to help save costs and pay for the Night Tube, led to strike action by unions.The TSSA union welcomed the review.

Alicia Keys: 'I felt I was from another planet'

That night, she was up for six awards, including song of the year for Fallin', and was due to perform a medley of hits alongside Flamenco dancer Joaquin Cortes."I willed myself out of bed," she recalls in her autobiography, More Myself. "I wasn't about to miss my first Grammys, even if my face crashed right down onto the piano keys."A shot of vitamin B12 carried her through the ceremony, where Keys scooped five of those six awards, tying Lauryn Hill's record for the most trophies for a female solo artist in a year.The mixture of exhilaration, illness and drowsiness made it feel like she'd "ascended into outer space"."What new artist wins five awards after just one album?" The whole night "felt unbelievable to me," she adds, "even otherworldly".Fast forward to 2020 and Keys was back at the Grammys - this time as host - as Billie Eilish replicated her five-prize success.The teenager, who was born in the year Keys released her debut, seemed uncomfortable with all the acclaim. As the nominees for album of the year were read out, the camera caught her saying, "please don't be me". On stage, she confessed to feeling undeserving.Watching from the sideline, Keys knew exactly what she was going through."Oh my God, absolutely," she says. "There you are, with all these accolades and all this celebration - and you don't know exactly what to do with it, or even why was it you."It feels almost like it's overkill. You think, 'Spread it around, don't just give [the awards] to me,' you know? I definitely recognise that, I understood that."The following morning, Keys called Eilish to offer her support."I wanted to congratulate her because I was so happy for her," she says, "because not only does she have a beautiful voice but she's not trying to fit in to the crowd - and that's such an important thing to see."So when I called her I said, 'Don't for one second think that you didn't deserve this. You deserve all of this, and don't forget it.' "Because I remember I definitely felt like that for a long time. I thought I didn't deserve what I was receiving, I didn't deserve the greatness that I had inside of me."It's a surprise to learn that Keys ever felt inadequate or unworthy. Her music pulses with strength and messages of emancipation. Even U2's Bono says the star gives off a "don't eff with me" energy.But, as she explains in her book, More Myself, songs like Superwoman and Girl On Fire weren't written by someone who had the world figured out. Instead, "the lyrics were what I needed to hear". Keys was miserable, second-guessing her instincts and worried about sustaining her success. Worse still, she let others prey on those fears to make her work harder.By 2006, "I no longer belonged to myself," she writes in the memoir. "I'd become captive to every request, every demand, every surge of fear that came with even the thought of saying no."After breaking down in her dressing room one night in New York, she booked a solo trip to Egypt and escaped. On the first day, she lost her voice to laryngitis. Forced to slow down and pay attention to her feelings, she resolved to wrestle back control of her life, "setting boundaries and making changes for the better".But change didn't come overnight. Learning to stand up for herself and resisting the urge to please others took years of practice. Keys was also forced to confront aspects of her personality she'd previously suppressed."I'm not as comfortable [with] the parts that are very vulnerable or even angry," she says. "Anger is not an emotion that I'm very in touch with, and I realised that that's because my mother has always had a really big, strong personality. Because of that I've always kind of had to manage her emotions and be the peacekeeper. And so I got used to that."Born Alicia Augello Cook in 1981, Keys was raised in Hell's Kitchen - one of New York's toughest neighbourhoods. Her father left when she was two, forcing the family to scrape by on her mother's meagre salary as a paralegal. Despite their limited finances, she insisted that her daughter take piano lessons, practising on a battered upright a friend had donated.Keys turned out to be a prodigious talent, both musically and academically. She skipped two years of school, graduated valedictorian from New York's Professional Performing Arts School and signed her first recording contract when she was 15. But those achievements (and the fact she was taller than her older classmates) exaggerated a feeling of otherness."I have felt like an outsider," she says. "I think I learned along the way how to fit into multiple circumstances in different places, different spaces, different people. But I always felt like I was from another planet or another time, and I didn't really belong here.""Like I was somehow dropped in this era and I was like, 'Wait, how did I get here?'"Keys is certainly an old soul. One of the reasons the music community embraced her debut album so readily was her ability to splice the sophisticated soul of the 70s to the street sounds of hip-hop.But that sensibility failed to impress her first record label, Columbia, who wanted to market her as a clean-cut teen idol. The piano prodigy was told to make her music "more radio-friendly" and "less piano-driven". With depressing inevitability, she was also told to lose weight and show more cleavage.Incensed, she fought her way out of the contract, even managing to retain the rights to her master tapes, which she brought to Clive Davis's J Records. Songs In A Minor, which contained many of the songs Columbia had dismissed as sounding "like a demo", was eventually released in 2001 and went on to sell 12 million copies.Keys characterises the fight for control as her "first act of artistic defiance" - and it demonstrated a self-confidence that was lacking in other areas of her life. But Keys says the one thing she's never been willing to compromise on is her music."That's always been my outlet, that's always been my safe space. The ability to write and discuss what I'm feeling and share that in an intimate way - that's definitely always been my truth."Around the same time that Keys was writing her autobiography, she started work on her seventh album. Inevitably, as she explored her identity on paper, the music started to reflect the opening up of her personality.So alongside the chilled-out ballads and motivational lyrics, you get to see her "crazy, freaked-out, seeing red, yelling and screaming" side, on a track like Truth Without Love (sung, she says, with a "lip curl"); or her confused, self-sabotaging side, on the country-tinged Gramercy Park.That's why the record is simply called Alicia - "because I know for a fact that this is the first time that I'm fully meeting myself and getting to know all of me."The album was originally due out in March - but Covid put a stop to that, as well as a mammoth world tour that was due to take up the rest of her year.The pause gave Keys time to tinker with the album - but it also gave some of the songs an unexpected resonance. Good Job, for instance, was written last year as a tribute to her mum and the other "honest and selfless" people whose everyday sacrifices went unnoticed. "Every time I played it, people would have tears in their eyes - even before all of this," she recalls. In the midst of the pandemic, however, the song became an anthem for the doctors, carers, teachers and delivery drivers on the frontline."I would have never imagined in a million years that it would be so relevant," she says, "but the spirit of the song is the same: Those who need to hear that they're doing a good job are often the ones who don't [get] celebrated."On the other hand, the heart-breaking Perfect Way To Die was written with one eye on the future. Telling the story of a grieving mother whose child was murdered, it alludes to the deaths of Michael Brown, who was killed by police in Missouri in 2014, and Sandra Bland, who died in a jail cell in 2015 after Texas police stopped her for a minor traffic violation.After the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, the song assumed a new urgency. Keys performed it at June's BET Awards in a deserted New York City, surrounded by murals of Floyd, Taylor and Bland. At the end of the song, she knelt on the street, which had been stencilled with names of dozens of black men and women whose lives have been lost to racism and police brutality."I always knew it would be relevant, unfortunately, the blatant disrespect of black lives," says Keys. "So in a sad way I did actually know that whenever [the song] came out, it would be right on time."I didn't know that I would feel so moved to bring it out during this time, as this whole planet is recognising this tremendous injustice, no matter where we're from. "I don't think there's been that consciousness before. Many people have just said, 'too bad that's going on but that's not me - without really recognising how everybody does participate in the outcome of what's acceptable and not acceptable. "And that's actually part of what I believe is going to transform it and make it completely unacceptable. I look forward to that happening."Already a powerful song, Perfect Way To Die becomes even more intense on the album, where it arrives immediately after one of Keys' most care-free moments - a duet with neo-soul singer Jill Scott. But as the two songs segue, rain starts to fall and the mood darkens."I really thought about that a lot," says Keys. "I wanted to make sure that it was a big transition in a way that shocks you."It's an artistic move she might have rejected in the past - but with a new-found confidence, Keys is ready to rock the boat."In a lot of ways I feel like I'm just getting started," she says.

Shetland’s biggest gig – the day Pulp flew in to Lerwick

So why, only a few weeks later, were they performing in front of 1,400 young fans in Shetland?The show at the Clickimin Centre in Lerwick on 13 August 1996 was a formative experience for many of those in the audience.Alan Donald was 12 years old and had only recently moved to Shetland from West Lothian."I got my ticket handed to me on the day of the gig," he recalls."That sort of gig, on the [Scottish] mainland, there's not a chance I was going to that on my own."It was my very first concert - I think it was a high bar for just having moved to Shetland."I was thinking Oasis and Blur are surely just weeks behind them."That wouldn't prove to be the case, and many believe the show remains the biggest concert Shetland has ever seen.Demand was understandably high. Entry was priced at £15, although some tickets changed hands for up to £100. "There were people organising pre-Pulp parties," remembers islander Hazel Robertson."There was a bunch of us went and nearly missed the first song."Davie Gardner was one of those involved in organising the concert at the Shetland end."You could tell at the soundcheck that the band were really up for it," he said."The response from the audience was absolutely amazing - that's probably the best reaction I ever saw to any band in Shetland."The show came at the end of a long global tour for Pulp, who had found mainstream success with singles like Common People and the Different Class album after more than a decade of relative obscurity.But why did they end up playing in Shetland?Keyboard player Candida Doyle said it was due to a family connection."I used to live with my cousin Louise Davis in Sheffield," she said.Louise was originally from Shetland, and had moved back home - but not before having a brainwave."It might have been a joke, but she suggested to Jarvis (Cocker) we play Shetland."It seemed like a crazy idea, but he took it on board."It was a complex gig to set up, and the guest list ended up being "astronomical".But Davie said the band's rider for the show was unusual in its lack of demands."We had to get a couple of Airfix models," he said."I got a call the next day from the hotel to say the band had left behind a Lancaster bomber."The Shetland show took place at a turning point for the band. The set list featured the first performance of Help the Aged, a track from their next album, This Is Hardcore, which saw Pulp moving in a darker direction.Pulp had played more than 100 shows on the Different Class tour. Candida described it as a "really gruelling" experience, and said the stress got too much towards the end."Steve (Mackey), our bass player, said 'one of us is going to lose it on this tour' and it just triggered this huge panic attack."I suddenly felt really hot. And I just thought that I needed to get off the bus."She said touring had "passed the point of being enjoyable"."By the time we played Shetland, I'd absolutely had it," she added.But despite feeling jaded about their punishing schedule, the experience in Shetland left an impression on Candida."One of my memories is that it was a crazy night, absolutely electric."As much as I'm saying that by the time we played Shetland I'd had enough, I still feel so blessed to have been in a position like this. I feel so grateful."She also takes comfort in the significance of the show for the young crowd."I love that. You know, I really would like to have attended it."I love small gigs anyway, but it was just amazing."Hazel Robertson had seen Pulp twice before they came to Shetland, once at T in the Park and once headlining Glastonbury in 1995. But she said: "Seeing them on your home soil was absolutely amazing."Referencing one of the band's lyrics, she added: "As Jarvis said, I lost my friends and danced alone."They stand up as well as anyone else. I don't think their music gets old."For Davie, the show stands out as a unique night in local music history."I don't think anything here really ever equalled that. We never quite had a band at the peak of their powers again in Shetland."

Covid: South Tyneside case rate now highest in England

The borough saw 1,359 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to 8 July - the previous week the rate was 691.Eight North East areas are now in the top 10 worst-affected parts of England.Dr George Rae, chairman of the North East British Medical Association, said mask wearing should remain in law for public transport, pubs and shops.While the government has confirmed all restrictions will end on 19 July, South Tyneside and Sunderland NHS Trust said the surge in cases had coincided with a large number of staff having to self-isolate and emergency department attendances of more than 600 per day.The trust said the pressure was so great it will suspend all visits to adult inpatient wards at South Tyneside District Hospital, Sunderland Royal Hospital and the Intermediate Care Assessment and Rehabilitation unit at Houghton Primary Care Centre from 14 July.It issued a statement on Tuesday which revealed it has "over 80 people now in hospital with confirmed Covid-19 compared to just two people exactly a month ago".Dr Rae said: "There's really quite a difference between being expected to do it [wear a mask] and it being mandatory."Public health measures which we've actually been abiding by have played a huge part in helping us fight the virus."Therefore I think it should be mandatory to wear a mask in certain specific situations." The government wants people to take personal responsibility and is advising the public to keep wearing masks in crowded places.The South Tyneside figures are the highest rate recorded anywhere in England since 10 January and mean one in 74 people in the borough were infected in a week. The highest rate seen anywhere during the pandemic was in Barking and Dagenham which had about 1,700 cases per 100,000 people at the height of the December-January wave.Tom Hall, director of public health for South Tyneside Council, said: "We are closely watching if those levels of harm escalate, and how rapidly they escalate, and whether they put risks on the most vulnerable at the cost of other restrictions in people's lives."So it really would be a balancing act, and one that we are monitoring carefully."The high number of cases in the North East had given rise to concerns that a new local variant had emerged, but Public Health England said the figures remained consistent with the rise in Delta variant infections across the country.Covid incident director Dr Andrew Lee said: "Routine surveillance is ongoing for all variants and we will continue to use our excellent genomics, epidemiology and virology capacity to ensure that public health interventions remain effective and proportionate. Rob England - BBC England data unitSouth Tyneside is far in front of any other local authority in England in terms of case numbers compared to the amount of people who live there.There's also no clear evidence this rapid rise is beginning to slow.Hospital admissions have also begun to creep up at the nearest NHS trust, with the latest figures to 6 July suggesting the number of beds occupied by Covid patients have more than doubled.However, none of these patients are on a mechanical ventilator, or otherwise in critical care.This could be because the latest wave started with, and remains focused, on younger people - who are less likely to become seriously ill from the virus even without the vaccination.It may be that although infections have now spread to the majority of other age groups, the vaccine is still protecting older people from needing serious treatment.So, some potentially positive signs, but public health officials are keen to stress no spread of the virus is good, and no doubt efforts will be made to ensure everyone gets double-jabbed in the area.Follow BBC North East & Cumbria on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

Meurtre de Khashoggi : Trump ne veut pas écouter l'enregistrement

"Nous avons l'enregistrement, je ne veux pas l'écouter (...) car c'est un enregistrement de souffrance", a déclaré M. Trump dans un entretien diffusé dimanche par la chaîne de télévision Fox News."J'ai été intégralement briefé, il n'y aucune raison pour que je l'écoute. Je sais exactement ce qui s'est passé (...) C'était très violent, très brutal et horrible", a-t-il ajouté.M. Trump a une nouvelle refusé de se prononcer sur l'éventuelle responsabilité dans cet assassinat du prince héritier saoudien Mohammed ben Salmane.Réfugié aux Etats-Unis après être tombé en disgrâce à Ryad, Jamal Khashoggi a été tué le 2 octobre par des agents saoudiens dans le consulat de son pays à Istanbul. Cette affaire a considérablement terni l'image du royaume sunnite, allié historique de Washington et premier exportateur mondial de pétrole. L'Arabie Saoudite a plusieurs fois changé sa version officielle sur ce qui est arrivé au journaliste une fois franchie la porte du consulat. Jamal Khashoggi aurait été décapité Mi-novembre, le président turc Recep Tayyip Erdogan a affirmé que l'ordre de tuer M. Khashoggi avait été donné "aux plus hauts niveaux de l'Etat" saoudien. Il a écarté la responsabilité du roi Salmane, mais la presse et des responsables turcs anonymes ont incriminé son fils, le prince héritier Mohammed ben Salmane, qui nie avoir pris joué un rôle dans l'assassinat du journaliste. Le "Washington Post" et le "New York Times" affirment que la CIA en est arrivée à la conclusion à laquelle que le prince héritier saoudien avait commandité l'assassinat de M. Khashoggi.

ఏటా ఈ ఉత్సవాలను ప్రత్యేకంగా నిర్వహిస్తారు స్వేరో పూర్వ, ప్రస్తుత విద్యార్థులు. ఈసారి తెలంగాణ రాష్ట్రం పెద్దపల్లి జిల్లా ధూళికట్ట వద్ద 2 వేల ఏళ్ల నాటి ప్రాచీన బౌద్ధ స్తూపం దగ్గర ఈ కార్యక్రమం నిర్వహించారు.ఆ సమావేశంలో పాల్గొన్న తెలంగాణ సాంఘిక సంక్షేమ గురుకుల సొసైటీల కార్యదర్శి ఆర్ఎస్ ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేస్తున్నట్టుగా చేయి పెట్టి నుంచున్న ఒక వీడియో వైరల్ అయింది. ఆ వీడియోలో హిందూ దేవుళ్లపై తనకు నమ్మకం లేదు అన్న మాటలు వినిపిస్తాయి. దీంతో ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ మత విద్వేషాలు రెచ్చగొడుతున్నరన్న ఆరోపణలు వెల్లువెత్తాయి. పలువురు ఆయనపై విమర్శలు చేశారు. కొందరు కేసులు పెట్టారు. ఆయనతో పాటూ మొత్తంగా స్వేరో సంస్థ హిందూ వ్యతిరేక భావాలను ప్రచారం చేస్తోందన్న ఆరోపణలు వచ్చాయి.ఈ వ్యాఖ్యలపై హైదరాబాద్ బీజేపీ దళిత నాయకులు పోలీసులకు ఫిర్యాదు చేశారు. హిందువుల మనోభావాలను దెబ్బతీస్తున్నారని ఆ ఫిర్యాదులో పేర్కొన్నారు. కార్వాన్ నియోజకవర్గ బీజేపీ దళిత మోర్చా కన్వీనర్ అల్వాల శ్యామ్ రావ్ లంగర్ హౌస్ పోలీస్ స్టేషన్లో ఈ ఫిర్యాదు చేశారు. ఐపిసి 298 (మతవిశ్వాసాలను గాయపరచడం), 153 (అల్లర్లు జరిగేలా ప్రేరేపించడం) సెక్షన్ల కింద కేసు నమోదు చేయాలని కోరారు.దీనిపై ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ స్పందించారు. ఒక పత్రికా ప్రకటన విడుదల చేశారు. ఆ తరువాత అదే వేదికపై తాను చేసిన ప్రసంగాన్ని ట్విట్టర్ లో పెట్టారు. ‘‘మనం ఏ మతానికీ వ్యతిరేకం కాదు. ఎవరి మీదా కోపం లేదు. మీరే హిందూ, క్రైస్తవ, జైన, ముస్లిం.. ఏ దేవుడికైనా మొక్కండి.. కానీ మనం తినే ప్రతీ మెతుకుమీదా రమాబాయి (అంబేడ్కర్ భార్య) ముద్ర ఉంది. ప్రతీ ముద్దలో ఆమె కన్నీళ్లున్నాయి. మనకు తిండి పెట్టిన మహనీయులను మర్చిపోకండి. స్వేరోయిజం అంటే కృతజ్ఞత భావంతో బతకడం. సాయం చేసినవారిని మరవకుండా ఉండడం. కొందరు స్వేరోయిజంపై దుష్ప్రచారం చేస్తున్నారు’’ అంటూ సాగుతుంది ఆ ప్రసంగం.‘‘ఆ కార్యక్రమానికి విస్తృత ఏర్పాట్లు చేశారు. అన్ని పార్టీల స్థానిక నాయకులూ వచ్చారు. ఆ సమయంలో అక్కడికి ఒక బౌద్ధ కుటుంబం వచ్చి, వేదికపైకి ఎక్కి, బుద్ధ వందనం చదవడం ప్రారంభించారు. దాంతో పాటూ నాగపూర్‌లో 1956లో అంబేడ్కర్ చేసిన ప్రతిజ్ఞ కూడా చదివారు. దాంతో మాకే సంబంధమూ లేదు. నేను కానీ, మా స్వేరో సహచరులు కానీ వేదిక మీద ఆ బౌద్ధ కుటుంబం చెప్పిన దాంతో ఏకీభవించడం లేదు. ఇది ఎవరి మతపరమైన మనోభావాలనైనా దెబ్బతీసి ఉంటే, దానికి మేం తీవ్రంగా చింతిస్తున్నాం. అప్పటికప్పుడే వేదికమీదే మా సంస్థ ప్రతినిధులు ఈ విషయంపై వివరణ ఇచ్చారు.’’ అని ప్రకటనలో పేర్కొన్నారు ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్.‘‘స్వేరో లో అన్ని మతాల వారూ ఉన్నారు. మేం అన్ని మతాల నుంచి మంచిని తీసుకుంటాం. మేం మా ఇళ్ళల్లోనూ లేదా, పనిచేసే చోటా, ఏ మతంపైనా ఏ వ్యతిరేక భావాలనూ ప్రచారం చేయం. అన్ని పండుగలనూ జరుపుకొంటాం. మేం కేవలం ఈ దేశంలో సమ సమాజం కోసం, విద్య, ఆరోగ్య అవగాహన, శాస్త్రీయ దృక్పథం, ఆర్థిక సాధికారత ద్వారా ప్రయత్నిస్తున్నాం. ద్వేషం ద్వారా కాదు.’’ అని ఆ ప్రకటనలో పేర్కొన్నారు.అయితే ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్‌ను సమర్థించే కొందరు, ఆ వీడియో మార్పింగ్ చేశారని వాదించారు. కానీ అది అసలు వీడియోయేనని నిర్వాహకులు ధ్రువీకరించారు.అయితే ఈ ప్రతిజ్ఞలో ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ ఉద్దేశపూర్వకంగా పాల్గొనలేదని వివరిస్తున్నారు కార్యక్రమం నిర్వహించిన స్వేరో సంస్థ ప్రతినిధుల్లో ఒకరైన పులి కవిత. స్వేరో ఉపాధ్యాయ విభాగం రాష్ట్ర ఉపాధ్యక్షురాలిగా ఆమె ఉన్నారు. ‘‘మేం ఏటా భీం దీక్ష చేపడతాం. ఈసారి ఈ ప్రసిద్ధ బౌద్ధ క్షేత్రాన్ని ఎంచుకున్నాం. స్వేరోలో సభ్యులుగా అన్ని మతాల వారూ ఉన్నారు. స్వేరో ఎప్పుడూ బౌద్ధం సహా ఏ మతాన్నీ సమర్థించదు. వ్యతిరేకించదు. వ్యక్తిగత నిబద్ధత, అభివృద్ధి, సమాజం పట్ల అంకితభావం, మన ఎదుగుదలకు కారణమైన మహనీయుల పట్ల కృతజ్ఞత - వీటినే బోధిస్తుంది. బౌద్ధాన్ని విశ్వసించే అంబేడ్కరిస్టులు స్వేరో సంస్థలోనూ, సంస్థకు మద్దతుగానూ ఉన్నప్పటికీ, ఆ బౌద్ధ ప్రచారాన్నీ, స్వేరోయిజాన్నీ ఎప్పుడూ వేర్వేరుగానే చూస్తాం. ఆ విషయంలో ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ కూడా చాలా కచ్చితంగా ఉంటారు. ఏ మతాన్నీ దేవుళ్లనీ కించపరచవద్దు, వ్యతిరేకించవద్దు, సమర్థించవద్దు అని ఆయన స్పష్టంగా చెబుతారు’’ అంటూ వివరించారు కవిత.అయితే ఆ రోజు మాత్రం ఆ విషయం అనుకోకుండా జరిగిందేనని అంటున్నారామె. ‘‘వేదిక మీద చాలా మంది మాట్లాడారు. ఎవరికి వారు తమ సిద్ధాంతాలు, పద్ధతులు అవీ చెప్పుకున్నారు. అంతా హడావుడిగా ఉంది. అదే సందర్భంలో అక్కడకు, దళితుల్లో బౌద్ధమతాన్ని ప్రచారం చేసే ఒక కుటుంబం వచ్చింది. వారెంతో కాలంగా దళితులను బౌద్ధం వైపు నడిపించే ప్రయత్నం చేస్తున్నారు. వారు వేదిక మీద మాట్లాడుతూ సడెన్‌గా ప్రతిజ్ఞ అని ప్రకటించారు. అందరూ నుంచున్నప్పుడు ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ కూడా నుంచున్నారు. తీరా ఈ ప్రతిజ్ఞ మొదలయ్యాక ప్రవీణ్ గారు చాలా ఇబ్బంది పడ్డారు. ఆ విషయం వీడియోలో స్పష్టంగా కనిపిస్తోంది. మొహమాటానికి తప్పదన్నట్టు, ఆయన నుంచున్నారు’’ అంటూ చెప్పుకొచ్చారు కవిత.ఈ ప్రతిజ్ఞపై అక్కడికక్కడే కొందరు స్థానిక నాయకులు అభ్యంతరం చెప్పారు. తమకు స్వేరోయిజంపై, ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్‌పై గౌరవం ఉందనీ అదే సందర్భంలో బౌద్ధ ప్రతిజ్ఞ స్వేరో వేదికపై చేయడం సరికాదనీ ధర్మపురికి చెందిన బీజేపీ నాయకులు కన్నం అంజన్న అన్నారు. ఆయన, ఆయన అనుచరులు అదే వేదికపై జై శ్రీరాం నినాదాలు ఇచ్చారు.‘‘ఏ అఖిల భారత సర్వీసు అధికారికీ ప్రత్యేకంగా మతపరమైన నిబంధనలు ఏమీ ఉండవు. పౌరులకు ఉండే అన్ని మతపరమైన హక్కులూ, పరిమితులే వారికీ ఉంటారు. కేవలం రాజకీయాల్లో పాల్గొన కూడదన్న నిబంధన మాత్రమే ఉంటుంది. రాజ్యాంగంలోని ఆదేశిక సూత్రాల్లో చెప్పినట్టు ఏ మతాన్నీ ప్రత్యేకంగా ప్రోత్సహించకూడదన్నది మాత్రమే వర్తిస్తుంది’’ అని బీబీసీతో చెప్పారు ఆకునూరి మురళి.తెలంగాణలో ఐఎఎస్‌గా రిటైరైన ఆయన ప్రస్తుతం ఆంధ్రప్రదేశ్ ప్రభుత్వ సలహాదారుగా ఉన్నారు. ‘‘ఉదాహరణకు తిరుమల దేవస్థానాల ఈవోగా ఐఎఎస్ అధికారిని నియమిస్తారు. అక్కడ ఈవో ఉద్యోగ నియమావళిలో పరిపాలనా బాధ్యతలు మాత్రమే ఉంటాయి. కానీ ఈవోలు పూజల్లో పాల్గొంటారు. దాన్ని ఎవరూ అభ్యంతర పెట్టరు కదా. అది వ్యక్తిగత విశ్వాసం కిందకు వస్తుంది. స్వచ్ఛంద సంస్థల కార్యాక్రమాల్లో పాల్గొనడం, వేదిక పంచుకోవడం కూడా తప్పు కాదు. కాకపోతే ఆ స్వచ్ఛంద సంస్థకు చెందిన పదవులు అంటే డైరెక్టర్ వంటి పదవుల్లో ఉండకూడదు’’ అని మురళి వివరించారు. ‘‘ఈ మధ్య మతపరమైన విషయాల్లో ఏం మాట్లాడినా దేశద్రోహి అంటున్నారు. అది చాలా దారుణం. ప్రవీణ్ కావాలని చేయని దానికి, ఆయన్ను పట్టుకుని రచ్చ చేయడం సరికాదు. పైగా అది అంబేడ్కర్ చేసిన ప్రతిజ్ఞ. ఈ లెక్కన ఈరోజుల్లో అంబేడ్కర్ బతికి ఉండుంటే ఏం చేసేవారో? నేను స్వేరోలను దగ్గర్నుంచి చూశాను. వారు సామాజిక సాధికారత కోసం పనిచేస్తున్నారు. అందులో క్రైస్తువులు, ముస్లింలే కాదు, హార్డ్ కోర్ హిందువులూ ఉన్నారు. గుండు చేయించుకుని, బొట్టుపెట్టుకునేవారు కూడా స్వేరోస్ లో ఉన్నారు’’ అని అన్నారు.‘‘అది కించపరిచేది కాదు. హిందు దేవతలపై నాకు నమ్మకం లేదు అనడం తప్పేం కాదు. తిట్టినట్టు కాదు. పైగా ఆయన, తనకు తెలియకుండా జరిగింది అని చెప్పుకునే అవకాశం కూడా ఉంది. ఒకవేళ తెలిసి చేసినా, బౌద్ధ ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేయడం తప్పు కాదు. అంబేడ్కర్ ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేసినప్పుడు ఆయనపై కేసు పెట్టనప్పుడు ఇప్పుడెలా కేసు పెడతారు? అలాగే అఖిల భారత సర్వీసు అధికారులు మతపరమైన కార్యక్రమాల్లో పాల్గొనడంపై నిషేధం లేదు. చాలా మంది రోజూ పాల్గొంటూనే ఉన్నారు.’’ అన్నారు అరవింద రావు. ఉమ్మడి ఆంధ్రప్రదేశ్ రాష్ట్రానికి డీజీపీగా పనిచేసి రిటైర్ అయిన అరవింద రావు, సంస్కృత, వైదిక, బౌద్ధ సాహిత్యాన్ని విస్తృతంగా అధ్యయనం చేశారు. అయితే చట్ట ప్రకారం ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ చేసిన ప్రతిజ్ఞ, ఆ కార్యక్రమం తప్పుకాకపోయినా, స్వేరోలు గ్రామాల్లో ద్వేషాన్ని పెంచుతున్నారని ఆరోపించారు అరవింద రావు. ‘‘నాకు తెలిసిన వారు చాలా మంది చెప్పారు. గ్రామాల్లో స్వేరోలు హిందూ దేవుళ్ల పటాలు తగలబెడుతున్నారు. ఒక వర్గంలో ద్వేషం పెంచుతున్నారు. గ్రామాలకు వెళ్లి ఇన్నాళ్లూ మనల్ని అణగదొక్కారని చెబుతూ ఒకరకమైన విక్టిమ్ మోడ్ కల్పిస్తున్నారు. అది తప్పు. కానీ దాని వెనుక ఎవరు ఉన్నారో తెలియదు. విదేశీ శక్తులు ఉన్నాయా? అమెరికా ఉందా.. యూకే ఉందా.. యూకే ఇప్పటికీ భారత్‌కు శత్రువే. దేశాన్ని ముక్కలు చేయాలనుకుంటోంది. ఇది కచ్చితంగా ప్రవీణ్‌కి వచ్చిన ఆలోచన కాదు. వేరేవాళ్లెవరో వీరిని పెట్టి ఆడిస్తున్నారు. వీరు ఆడుతున్నారు అంతే. బయటి శక్తులు ఏవో, భారత సమాజాన్ని విభజించే శక్తులు, ఇదంతా చేస్తున్నాయి. ఇప్పుడు పోరాటం శాంతియుత భారత్ కోరుకునే వారు, భారత్ ముక్కలవ్వాలని కోరుకునేవారి మధ్యే’’ అన్నారు అరవిందరావు.1956లో మహారాష్ట్రలోని నాగపూర్‌లో అక్టోబరు 14న అంబేడ్కర్ ఈ ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేయించారు. అంబేడ్కర్ బౌద్ధ మతంలోకి మారుతున్న సందర్భంగా ఆయన ఇది తయారు చేశారు. ఇందులో మొత్తం 22 వాక్యాలు ఉంటాయి. అంబేడ్కర్ తనతో పాటూ మతం మారిన వేలాది మంది దళితులతో అక్కడ ఇవి చదివించారు. నాగపూర్ లో అంబేడ్కర్ మతం మారిన ప్రదేశాన్ని దీక్షా స్థలిగా పిలుస్తారు. అక్కడ కొన్ని నిర్మాణాలు ఉన్నాయి. వాటిలో ఒక స్తూపంపై ఆ ప్రతిజ్ఞలోని 22 పాయింట్లను అక్కడే వివిధ భాషల్లో చెక్కించారు. 2017 ఏప్రిల్ లో అంబేడ్కర్ పుట్టిన రోజున ప్రధాని మోదీ ఆ దీక్షా స్థలిని సందర్శించారు.దళితవాదంతో, అంబేడ్కర్ బోధనలతో ప్రభావితమై బౌద్ధంలోకి మారే దళితులు ఈ ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేస్తుంటారు.‘‘ నాకు బ్రహ్మ, విష్ణు, మహేశ్వరుల మీద నమ్మకం లేదు. నేను వాళ్లను పూజించను. నాకు రాముని మీద, కృష్ణుని మీద నమ్మకం లేదు. నేను వాళ్లను పూజించను.. నేను బుద్ధుడు ప్రవచించిన సూత్రాలకు, ప్రబోధాలకు ఏమాత్రం వ్యతిరేకమైన విధంగా ప్రవర్తించను’’ అంటూ సాగుతుందీ ప్రతిజ్ఞ.1. నాకు బ్రహ్మ, విష్ణు, మహేశ్వరుల మీద నమ్మకం లేదు. నేను వాళ్లను పూజించను.2. నాకు రాముని మీద, కృష్ణుని మీద నమ్మకం లేదు. నేను వాళ్లను పూజించను.3. నాకు గౌరీ మీద, గణపతి మీద, ఇతర హిందూ దేవతల ఎవరిమీదా నమ్మకం లేదు. నేను వాళ్లను పూజించను.4. నేను దేవుడి అవతారాల సిద్ధాంతాలను నమ్మనుగాక నమ్మను.5. నేను బుద్ధుడు విష్ణుమూర్తి అవతారమని అసలే నమ్మను. ఇది కుట్రతో కూడిన తప్పుడు ప్రచారంమని నమ్ముతున్నాను.6. నేను శ్రాద్ధ కర్మలను పాటించను. పిండదానాలు చేయను.7. నేను బుద్ధుడు ప్రవచించిన సూత్రాలకు, ప్రబోధాలకు ఏమాత్రం వ్యతిరేకమైన విధంగా ప్రవర్తించను.8. నేను బ్రాహ్మణుల ద్వారా ఎలాంటి క్రతువులను, ఆచారాలను నిర్వహించను.9. నేను మనుషులంతా ఒకటేనని నమ్ముతాను.10. నేను సమానత్వాన్ని సాధించేందుకు కృషి చేస్తాను.11. నేను బుద్ధుడు ప్రవచించిన 8 అంచెల మార్గాన్ని అనుసరిస్తాను.12. నేను బుద్ధుడు ప్రవచించిన 10 పారమితలను పాటిస్తాను.13. నేను ప్రాణులన్నింటి పట్ల దయగా ఉంటాను. వాటిని సంరక్షిస్తాను.14. నేను దొంగతనం చేయను.15. నేను అబద్ధం చెప్పను.16. నేను నీతిమాలిన దుష్ప్రవర్తనలకు దూరంగా ఉంటాను.17. నేను మద్యం సేవించను.18. నేను బౌద్ధమతం ప్రభోధించే ప్రజ్ఞ, శీలం, కరుణ అనే మూడు సూత్రాల ప్రకారం నా జీవితాన్ని తీర్చిదిద్దుకుంటునాను.19. నేను మానవాళి అభివృద్ధిని విచ్ఛిన్నం చేసే మతాన్ని, మనుషుల పట్ల వివక్షను ప్రదర్శించే మతాన్ని, మనుషుల్ని చిన్న చూపు చూసే హిందూ మతాన్ని విసర్జించి బౌద్ధాన్ని స్వీకరిస్తున్నాను.20. నేను బౌద్ధ దమ్మాన్ని సద్ధమ్మమని గట్టిగా నమ్ముతున్నాను.21. నేను కొత్త జీవితంలో ప్రవేశిస్తున్నానని విశ్వసిస్తున్నాను.22. నేను ఇక నుంచి బుద్ధుని ప్రబోధల ప్రకారమే నడుచుకుంటానని ప్రమాణం చేస్తున్నాను.ప్రస్తుతం చాలా మంది బౌద్ధం గురించి మాట్లాడే వారు, బౌద్ధాన్ని సరిగ్గా చదవలేదనీ, అంబేడ్కర్‌ని సరిగా అర్థం చేసుకోలేదనీ అంటున్నారు అరవింద రావు.‘‘ఇది హిందూ – బౌద్ధ మధ్య యుద్ధం కాదు. బౌద్ధంలో చాలా శాఖలు, రకాలు ఉన్నాయి. అప్పట్లో బౌద్ధ, హిందూ పండితుల మధ్య చర్చలూ, వాదనలు జరిగాయి. వాస్తవికత, నేను అనే భావన, బుద్ధి.. ఇలా ప్రపంచంలో ఎక్కడా జరగని విషయాలపై చర్చలు జరిగేవి. వారు పరస్పరం విబేధించుకున్నా, ఎదుటి వారి నైతికతను తప్పు పట్టలేదు. కానీ ఇప్పటి వారు బౌద్ధం గురించి చెప్పేటప్పుడు, హిందూత్వానికి వ్యతిరేకిగా చూపుతారు’’ అని అరవింద రావు అన్నారు.‘‘వారు చరిత్రను సరిగా చదవలేదు. రైస్ డేవిడ్స్ (భారత్ లో పనిచేసిన బ్రిటిష్ అధికారి) వంటి వారు పూర్తి అధ్యయనం చేయకుండా రాసిన వాక్యాలు పట్టుకుని కథలు అల్లుతారు. ఆఖరికి బౌద్ధం పతనానికి బ్రాహ్మణులు కారణం కాదు, విదేశీ దండయాత్రలే కారణమని అంబేడ్కర్ చెప్పినా వారికి ఎక్కదు. ‘డిక్లైన్ అండ్ ఫాల్ ఆఫ్ బుద్ధిజం’లో అంబేడ్కర్ ఆ విషయం చెప్పాడు. విదేశీ దండయాత్రలు భారతదేశంలో బౌద్ధానికి మరణ శాసనం రాశాయన్నారు అంబేడ్కర్. వీళ్లు చాలా మంది బుద్ధిజాన్ని చదవకుండా, అంబేడ్కర్ ను సరిగా అర్థం చేసుకోకుండా మాట్లాడుతున్నారు. అంబేడ్కర్ హిందు నుంచి బౌద్ధానికి వెళ్లినా ప్రజల్లో శత్రుత్వం పెంచమనలేదు. నేను వారికి చెప్పేది ఒకటే. మీరు రికార్డుల్లో బౌద్ధులుగా నమోదు చేసుకోండి. బౌద్ధాన్ని చదవండి. దానిలో ఏముందో తెలుసుకోండి’’ అన్నారాయన.

ఆర్ఎస్ ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేస్తున్నట్టుగా చేయి పెట్టి నుంచున్న ఒక వీడియో వైరల్ అయ్యింది|స్వేరోస్ ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ ఏమని ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేశారు... దానిపై వివాదం ఎందుకు చెలరేగింది?

తెలంగాణ|విద్య

దాంతో పాటూ నాగపూర్‌లో 1956లో అంబేడ్కర్ చేసిన ప్రతిజ్ఞ కూడా చదివారు. 1956లో మహారాష్ట్రలోని నాగపూర్‌లో అక్టోబరు 14న అంబేడ్కర్ ఈ ప్రతిజ్ఞ చేయించారు. 2017 ఏప్రిల్ లో అంబేడ్కర్ పుట్టిన రోజున ప్రధాని మోదీ ఆ దీక్షా స్థలిని సందర్శించారు.

అయితే ఈ ప్రతిజ్ఞలో ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ ఉద్దేశపూర్వకంగా పాల్గొనలేదని వివరిస్తున్నారు కార్యక్రమం నిర్వహించిన స్వేరో సంస్థ ప్రతినిధుల్లో ఒకరైన పులి కవిత. తమకు స్వేరోయిజంపై, ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్‌పై గౌరవం ఉందనీ అదే సందర్భంలో బౌద్ధ ప్రతిజ్ఞ స్వేరో వేదికపై చేయడం సరికాదనీ ధర్మపురికి చెందిన బీజేపీ నాయకులు కన్నం అంజన్న అన్నారు. అయితే చట్ట ప్రకారం ప్రవీణ్ కుమార్ చేసిన ప్రతిజ్ఞ, ఆ కార్యక్రమం తప్పుకాకపోయినా, స్వేరోలు గ్రామాల్లో ద్వేషాన్ని పెంచుతున్నారని ఆరోపించారు అరవింద రావు.

منتدى الإسلام في فرنسا: هل يفتح صفحة جديدة في العلاقة بين الدولة ومواطنيها المسلمين؟

. ففي الخامس من فبراير/شباط، عقد "منتدى الإسلام في فرنسا" اجتماعه الأول، بمشاركة مسؤولي جمعيات، وأئمة، ونشطاء، وشخصيات اعتبارية.الإعلان عن تأسيس الجسم الجديد جاء على لسان وزير الداخلية جيرالد دارمانان مطلع العام الجاري، في خضم الاستعداد للانتخابات الرئاسية المقرر أن تشهدها البلاد أبريل/نيسان المقبل.وهي خطوة انقسمت آراء المسلمين في فرنسا حولها، بين من رأى أنها مبادرة إيجابية لإنهاء حقبة "المجلس الفرنسي للديانة الإسلامية" الذي كان الطرف المحاور للدولة الفرنسية، وأدت الانقسامات الداخلية فيه إلى تعطليه، وربما يحلّ خلال الأيام المقبلة؛ وبين من رأى أن شكل المبادرة وتوقيتها لا يؤشر إلى تغير حقيقي في نظرة الدولة الفرنسية الاستعلائية للمسلمين، والتعامل معهم "كقنبلة موقوتة"، وليس كمواطنين كاملي الحقوق.ومن المقرر أن ينعقد المنتدى مرة في السنة، وقد افتتحه وزير الداخلية بخطاب يحذر من أن "خطاب الكراهية عند الشعبويين يلتقي مع مشاريع الإسلاميين المتشددين"، مشدداً على أن الإسلام "يتوافق مع الجمهورية"، وأن "الدولة تتعامل بجدية مع المسؤولين المسلمين الفرنسيين".يأتي ذلك على خلفية الجدل المثار حالياً، من جديد، حول مشروع لمنع الرياضيات الفرنسيات من خوض المنافسات بالحجاب، ليضاف إلى سلسلة تشريعات سابقة رأتها نساء مسلمات كمحاولة لمحوهنّ من الفضاء العام.بالنسبة للبعض، يشير إطلاق المنتدى الجديد إلى أمر لم يعد خافياً، مفاده أن الدولة الفرنسية تواجه منذ مدة طويلة معضلة بالتعامل مع مسلميها. يشكل هؤلاء خمسة بالمئة تقريباً من مجمل السكان، وتعد ديانتهم ثاني أكبر ديانة في البلاد، بالتالي لم يعد بإمكان فرنسا التعامل معهم "كجالية أجنبية".ومن جهة ثانية هناك ذاكرة الحقبة الاستعمارية التي تثقل علاقة المسلمين من الجيلين الأول والثاني بالسلطات الفرنسية، كما تثقل كاهل الدولة الفرنسية ذاتها، وهو الأمر الذي لا يزال ينعكس بعلاقة أمنية وبوليسية مع المسلمين في الضواحي والمساجد، إلى جانب تنامي مشاعر الكراهية ضد المسلمين بين قطاعات داخل المجتمع الفرنسي. ولكي تكتمل عناصر الحبكة، جاءت أحداث السنوات الماضية لتأخذ الأزمة إلى بعد جديد، مع الهجمات الدامية التي تبناها متطرفون إسلاميون في فرنسا، خصوصاً مجزرة شارلي إيبدو، إلى جانب وجود بؤر لتجنيد جهاديين فرنسيين أرسلوا إلى العراق وسوريا، على وقع تنامي خطاب اليمين المتطرف الذي يتحضر الآن لخوض الانتخابات الرئاسية المقبلة.في خضم كل ذلك، ماذا يعني تأسيس "منتدى الإسلام في فرنسا"؟ وما التغيير الذي يمكن أن يقدمه؟ بالنسبة لمتابعي الملف، لا يمكن الحديث الآن عن أي تقدم، لأن المجلس سيحتاج لسنتين أو ثلاثة على الأقل لكي يصير فاعلاً. الفرق الأساسي الذي يحمله، أنه يضع حداً لدور "المجلس الفرنسي للديانة الإسلامية" الذي تأسس عام 2003، وكان المحاور الأساسي للدولة، في المسائل المتعلقة بالعبادة والشعائر الإسلامية. شهد ذلك المجلس انقسامات شلّت حركته خلال الأشهر الماضية، بعدما طلبت الحكومة الفرنسية إقرار "شرعة الإسلام الفرنسي"، كوثيقة تكفل التزام ممثلي المسلمين في فرنسا بالاستقلالية عن "الإسلام السياسي". وتشير تقارير صحافية إلى أن المجلس يتجه إلى حلّ نفسه خلال الأيام المقبلة.إذاً، تسعى الدولة الفرنسية من خلال المنتدى المؤسس حديثاً إلى "فتح صفحة جديدة" لتنظيم شؤون العبادة الإسلامية، بعد سنة حافلة شهدت سجالاً على مشروع قانون "ترسيخ مبادئ الجمهورية" أو ما كان يعرف بقانون "مكافحة الانفصالية"، الذي أقرّ الصيف الماضي.أثار القانون جدلاً واسعاً، إذ رأى فيه البعض إرساءً للتمييز ضد المسلمين، ومسعى لعزلهم ومحوهم من الفضاء العام، فيما ترى السلطات الفرنسية أنه وسيلة للحدّ من تأثير التطرف. يلحظ الباحث والمؤرخ صادق سلام في حديث مع بي بي سي نيوز عربي، أن إطلاق المنتدى الجديد يتزامن مع "محاولة جميع المرشحين بدون استثناء مغازلة اليمين واليمين المتطرف". برأيه فإن خروج المنتدى إلى الضوء الآن، كان بمثابة "تطور مفاجئ لمن يتابعون ملف (الإسلام في فرنسا) خصوصاً أن دوره استشاري فقط حتى الآن".المبادرة الجديدة برأيه "تراكم الكثير من الأسئلة التي تستحق الأجوبة بعيداً عن الخطاب الانتخابي للسياسيين والخطاب الدعائي لعمداء المساجد الكبرى"، بالرغم من أن "هناك نوعاً من الارتياح لاعتراف السلطات بفشل المجلس الفرنسي للديانة الإسلامية الذي أحيط أداؤه بانتقادات".من جهته، يرى إمام مسجد بوردو طارق أوبرو في اتصال مع بي بي سي نيوز عربي، أن المنتدى "نقطة انطلاقة جديدة لاستقلال الإسلام الفرنسي عن التدخلات الأيديولوجية التي تأتي من الخارج، والانحيازات السلفية والوهابية أو الاخوانية التي تقدم قراءة دينية تتصادم مع قيم الجمهورية".كان اللقاء الأول للمنتدى مناسبة لرسم خريطة طريق، ضمن أربع محاور، لم تحد عن لبّ النقاش المفتوح في البلاد منذ سنوات، وهي:أضيف للنقاش ملف خامس، يتعلق بشفافية تمويل العبادة الإسلامية، وذلك لتفادي الأموال الخارجية، واتخاذ مبادرات لتنظيم الحج ومصادر الدخل الأخرى مثل المنتجات الحلال. وتواجه الاتحادات والجهات الممثلة للمسلمين في فرنسا تهماً بالانحياز السياسي والمالي للخارج، منذ سنوات، مع الحديث عن تضارب بين النفوذ المغربي والجزائري والتركي فيها، وتأثير علاقات فرنسا الخارجية على عملها، تأزماً أو انفراجاً.وكان ذلك الانقسام يظهر في الأجسام التمثيلية لمسلمي فرنسا بين فترة وأخرى، ليبلغ ذروته مع انشقاق أربع جهات عن "المجلس الفرنسي للديانة الإسلامية"، وتأسيس "مجلس وطني للأئمة"، في ديسمبر/ كانون الأول الماضي، ما وضع في إطار الخلاف بين النفوذين الجزائري، ممثلاً بعميد مسجد باريس شمس الدين حافظ، والمغربي، ممثلاً برئيس "المجلس الفرنسي للديانة الإسلامية" محمد موسوي.ولكن بعض المحللين يرون أن مسعى الدولة الفرنسية إلى الحدّ من التأثير الخارجي، يأتي متأخراً جداً، بعدما رسخت بنفسها مبدأ "الإسلام القنصلي"، وفق تعبير الباحث والمؤرخ صادق سلام. بمعنى أن الدولة الفرنسية كانت لعقود تمرّ بسفارات الدول ذات الثقل في صفوف المهاجرين المسلمين، لتنظيم شؤونهم، والآن تريد أن تقلب الآية.ويرى سلام أن تلك المعادلة، لم تعد قابلة للحياة، لأنها تشي بعدم احترام الدولة "لمواطنيها المسلمين خصوصاً أبناء الجيل الرابع المولودين في فرنسا، الذين يطالبون بكامل حقوق المواطنة". في خطابه حول "مكافحة الانفصالية" في أكتوبر/ تشرين الأول 2020 تحدث إيمانويل ماكرون عن الحاجة لإسلام فرنسي، يتناسب مع قيم الجمهورية، بحسب تعبيره. ويعدّ الانقسام حول تعريف "ماهية الإسلام الفرنسي" من الأسباب الجوهرية لانفراط عقد "المجلس الفرنسي للديانة الإسلامية"، مع توقيع شرعة مبادئ للإسلام في فرنسا في يناير/ كانون الثاني 2021، بعد أسابيع من مقتل أستاذ التاريخ صامويل باتي في خريف 2020.ومن بنود تلك الشرعة التي رفعها ممثلون عن الجمعيات الإسلامية النافذة في البلاد إلى إيمانويل ماكرون:يقول المؤرخ صادق سلام إن "الخطب المتعددة في المدة الأخيرة حول الإسلام في فرنسا، توحي بأن إسلام العلمانية ديانة أخرى". برأيه هناك مزايدات، لتضخيم خطر "الإرهاب والتطرّف والحركات الأصولية كذريعة من أجل إبقاء رقابة إدارية وبوليسية على المساجد والمصلين، وهذا يذكر بالحقبة الاستعمارية، فما نشهده من رقابة على المسلمين لا يوازيه أداء مماثل تجاه أتباع الديانات الأخرى".من جهته، يرى الإمام طارق أوبرو "أن الهجمات الإرهابية وبعض المظاهر التي لا علاقة لها بالإسلام، عززت الخوف عند المواطن الفرنسي العادي الذي لا يعرف الفرق بين الإسلام الصحيح وتلك المظاهر، وذلك ما استغله اليمين المتطرف وغذّاه".برأيه فإن "المشكلة تكمن في بعض الخطابات الدينية الإسلامية التي لا تليق بالقرون الوسطى، هناك تأخر في تجديد الخطاب الديني الذي يهمّش المسلمين ويضعهم خارج السياق الفرنسي".من وجهة نظر أوبرو، فإن الفرصة الآن سانحة أمام المسلمين الفرنسيين لأخذ الأمور على عاتقهم، خصوصاً لناحية التمويل، بما أن العديد من المساجد مبنية بأموال فرنسيين، إلى جانب الحاجة إلى وضع شروط تكفل شفافية "التمويل من الخارج، كي لا يكون مشروطاً أو مؤدلجاً أو مسيساً".ويقول صادق سلام بناء "إسلام فرنسي" لن يكون ممكناً إلا من خلال تأسيس "معهد للدراسات الإسلامية للتكوين وتربية أبناء المسلمين تربية حديثة لتبعدهم عن الحركات المتطرفة". برأيه فإنّ "الدولة الفرنسية منذ عشرين سنة، لم تتطرّق إلى ملف الإسلام إلا من باب وضع محرمات جديدة، من منع البرقع إلى الحديث عن منع الحجاب في الشوارع والجامعات، ما عمّق الأزمة في علاقتها مع أربع أجيال من المواطنين يرون أن صلتهم بدولتهم تقتصر على وضع قيود ومحرمات".
