Anniversary of liberation of northern Donbass from German Nazi and fascist invaders (photo report)

On September 6, 1943, the armies of the Soviet South-Western front liberated the cities of northern Donbass from German Nazi and fascist invaders during the Donbass operation.

Yesterday, on the 73rd anniversary of those events, hundreds of people rallied near the monument “To Your Liberators, Donbass”.

Veterans of the Great Patriotic War and the servicemen of Donetsk People’s Republic army, who fight today for the liberation of their native cities — Slavyansk, Kramatorsk, Druzhkovka, Konstantinovka, Krasnoarmeysk and many other towns and villages of Donbass, currently occupied by Ukrainian punitive forces — were present on the event.The aircraft flight data recorder (FDR) is a device that preserves the recent history of an aircraftflight through the recording of dozens of parameters collected several times per second. The aircraft cockpit voice recorder (CVR) preserves the recent history of the sounds in the cockpit including the conversation of the pilots. The two recorders give an accurate testimony narrating the aircraft's flight history to assist in any later investigation. Modern FDRs are typically protected from crash damage by a double wrap of strong corrosion-resistant stainless steel, or titanium, on the exterior and high-temperature insulation inside for protection against fire. An underwater locator beacon transmitter (i.e., pinger) is mounted on a bracket bolted to the front of an FDR, designed to emit an ultrasonic “ping” for up to 30


manually deployed, and requires the use of: a towed detector, tow cables, winches, hydraulic power units, generators, and an operator at a control console on the tow boat to monitor the system for detections. Such systems have limited capabilities and coverage and can only be safely and effectively used under good weather conditions.
Some representative aircraft ocean crashes include TWA Flight 800 in 1996. The black boxes were found in 8 days, at a depth of 37 meters. The black boxes for Egypt Air 990 in 1999 were found after 10 days at a depth of 60 to 83 meters. The black boxes for Air France Flight 447 were found in May 2011 at a depth of 2,987 meters after a search of about 700 days, long after theuntil President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili appointed a new chairman, Irakli Alasania, his envoy in the peace talks over Abkhazia.

On 27 July 2006, the Georgian authorities relocated the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia to Upper Abkhazia. "This decision means that for the first time since 1993 the government enters into the middle of Abkhazia, of our Abkhazia, to exercise Georgian jurisdiction and the Georgian constitutional order. This is very important fact and very fundamental political event," Saakashvili said in his televised address to the nation.

Malkhaz Akishbaia, a western-educated Abkhaz politician was Chairman of the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia from April 2006 to June 2009, when he was succeeded by Giorgi Baramia.

This Government was forced out of Upper Abkhazia during the 2008 South Ossetia

Henry Fox Talbot

(1800-1877)
One of Photography's Earliest Forefathers to
the Modern Craft

Biography: Philosopher, classicist, Egyptologist, mathematician,
philologist, transcriber and translator of Syrian and Chaldean
cuneiform texts, physicist, and photographer.
The work that he did between 1834 and 1850 established in principle
and practise the foundation of modern photography; the basis of
the process that is used today.

All texts and images printed in books, magazines, newspapers
and journals or on posters are transformed and translated through
the negative/positive photographic process, whether or not finally
printed lithographically or by photogravure.

In addition, all printed circuit boards found in modern computers
are miniaturised by photographic reduction and their production
uses a process known as photo-polymerisation to etch all the minute
tracks and contacts that form the basic motherboards at the heart
of all digital electronic systems.

The origin of photo-polymerisation can be seen in the early researches
of


Talbot. Between 1845 and 1860, he discovered the unique property
of potassium dichromate to directly harden colloidal gelatine
in proportion to the amount of light to which it is exposed.

The French and British may disagree over exactly when photography
was invented: Joseph Nicéphore Niepce (1765-1833) executed the
first recognisable image formed by a camera obscura, a view from
a window near Chalon-sur-Saône, with an exposure of some eight
to ten hours in 1826. Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre (1789 -1851)
made his first Daguerreotype in 1837 using a polished silver-plated
copper plate, sensitised with vapourised iodine and developed
with the fumes of mercury.

Meanwhile, the idea of photography came to William Henry Fox
Talbot (1800-1877) whilst on holiday at Lake Como in Italy, using
the Camera obscura and the Camera Lucida as aids to drawing.

Talbot reflected: on the immutable beauty ofthe pictures
of nature's painting which the glass lens of the camera throws
on the paper in its focus...fairy pictures, creations of a moment
and destined as rapidly to fade away.

It was during these thoughts that the idea occurred
to me - how charming it would be if it were possible to cause
these natural images to imprint themselves durably and remain
fixed upon the paper.

In Britain, Talbot made the earliest known surviving photographic
negative on paper in the late summer of 1835, a small photogenic
drawing of the oriel window in the south gallery of his home,
Lacock Abbey: this rare item is now in the photographic collection
of the Science Museum at the National Museum of Photography, Film
and Television at Bradford.

Before this he had been experimenting with photogenic drawings:
by coating drawing paper with salt solution and


after it dried,
adding a solution of silver nitrate, and by placing a leaf, or
fern, or a piece of lace, on the paper's surface and exposing
it to the sun, he obtained an image.

Talbot's findings were read to a meeting of the Royal Society
on 31 January 1839 in his paper:

An Account of the Art of Photogenic Drawing or the process
by which natural objects may be made to delineate themselves without
the aid of the artist's pencil.

This was one of the first official announcements of the birth
of photography. Talbot's photographic experiments culminated in
his greatest achievement when he made the crucial discovery: the
development of the latent negative photographic image.

As often happens, the breakthrough occurred at the point of despair.
He discovered that paper treated with a substratum of silver iodide
and washed in gallic acidin conjunction with silver nitrate and
acetic acid would bring out the latent image.

On 23 September 1840, with elation and wonder, he watched a picture
gradually appearing on a blank sheet of paper.

He found he could even revive some of his earlier, faded images
and named this new process the Calotype, derived from the Greek
word 'kalos' meaning beautiful.

Talbot's contribution is best summed up in his own modest statement:

...I do not profess to have perfected an art but to
have commenced one, the limits of which it is not possible at
present exactly to ascertain. I only claim to have based this
art on a secure foundation.

It will be for a more skilled hand than mine to rear
the superstructure.

The psychologically suspenseful story of The Tenant is basically about identity, and more specifically what happens to a person who starts to lose their grip on their own sense of self. The tale is set in Paris and centers around a timid, overly polite youngish man named Trelksovsky (played by Polanski himself), who is a French citizen of Polish descent.

Berkeley Lab is seeking a Chief of Projects & Construction to lead the efforts of bringing the organization’s conventional construction and project management into the top tier of Department of Energy/Office of Science (DOE/SC) labs by achieving sustained, superior performance in support of world-class science.

The Mendocino Complex, encompassing two fires lapping the northern and western shores of Clear Lake about 80 miles northwest of Sacramento, added 17,000 acres overnight to reach 290,000 acres, authorities said.

The Mendocino Complex fire has nearly doubled in size since Saturday. It supplanted last year's Thomas Fire on Monday as the biggest on record in California. If it were a city, it would be the 14th largest by area in the United States.

"Our district office hasn't been up and running to start taking inventory," Lieferman told NBC affiliate KCRA of Sacramento.

Sabrina Bailey, who lives in Lake County, told the station that she was walking out of her bank "and I was just like, oh, it's started snowing again — everybody's car, it's everywhere." The "snow" was ash.

"We're getting used to it, and that's not a good thing," Bailey said.

The Mendocino Complex is just one of 17 wildfires across California that the state Office of Emergency Services classifies as major, from the Natchez Fire straddling the California-Oregon border to the arson-caused Cranston Fire in San Bernardino National Forest in the south.

Almost 14,000 firefighters are on duty battling the fires, which have burned 624,000 acres, the emergency services officesaid Tuesday. That's an area 30 percent larger than Jacksonville, Florida, the fifth-biggest city in the United States.

"I can remember a couple of years ago when we saw 10 [thousand] to 12,000 firefighters in the states of California, Oregon and Washington and never the 14,000 we see now," Scott McLean, a spokesman for Cal Fire, told NBC Bay Area.

"I loved it, loved it," Emily Scheidemann said of her family's home in Upper lake, which was devoured by the River Fire, part of the Mendocino Complex.

"I've just been kind of sitting there and staring off into space, just like, 'This is not real,'" Scheidemann told NBC Bay Area as she described watching her home collapse. "I just want to go home."


Wings name Blashill to coach Grand Rapids Griffins

DETROIT – Just one year after Jeff Blashill was named an assistant to Wings coach Mike Babcock, the organization has reassigned him.

Blashill will coach the Grand Rapids Griffins next season.

Curt Fraser, who is the longest-tenured coach in Griffins history, was named as assistant coach with the Dallas Stars last week.

There was no timetable announced as to when the Wings will Blashill’s position.

“We’re very excited to name Jeff the next head coach of the Griffins,” Wings general manager Ken Holland said in a press release. “He’s a talented coach that has a proven track record of working well with young players. He did a tremendous job for us in Detroit last season and we look forward to having him groom and mentorchallenges.

“I hope I can continue to learn and get better as a coach,” Blashill said, adding that his strengths are his “ability to communicate with players and express my expectations, knowledge of the game.”

Blashill guided the Broncos to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 15 seasons during his one season in Kalamazoo. His squad also made it to the CCHA tournament championship game.

Because of those accomplishments the school increased his base salary from $150,000 to $275,000. He also could have earned $100,000 more in incentives.

Blashill has also been an assistant coach at Ferris State and Miami University. In 2009, he was named head coach and general manager of the Indiana Ice, a Tier 1 junior hockey team in the United States Hockey League. In his only


season there he guided the Ice to the championship.

Blashill played goal for Ferris State from 1994-98.

Former NHL head coach Andy Murray is currently coaching at Western Michigan.

Fraser, 54, was 146-130-18-22 with Grand Rapids in four seasons, which ranked him first in franchise history in both regular season games coached (316) and wins (146). His most successful campaign was his debut season of 2008-09, when he led Grand Rapids to an impressive 43-25-6-6 regular season mark – a 28-point improvement in the standings from the prior season – and its first-ever playoff upset, a six-game toppling of Hamilton in the North Division Semifinals.

Fraser follows in the NHL footsteps of Guy Charron (1998-00) and Bruce Cassidy (2000-02), who each spent two seasons behind the Griffins’ bench before earning positions withshort supply of oxygen. Harry - through dint of investigation (and a little luck) - tracks down the evil Scorpio, wings him with a shot from his.45 and proceeds to grind his shoe into Scorpio's wounded shoulder until he presumedly (offscreen) gives up the location of the kidnapped girl. In the next scene, a body bag is shown being carried off (presumedly holding the kidnapped girl's body).

Now here's where it gets interesting. Our next scene finds Harry in a D.A.'s office, where he's told that nearly everything he did was unconstitutional. Scorpio gets to walk. Harry can't question a suspect without "Mirandizing" that suspect. He can't grind his shoe heel into a wound in order to extract vital information - that's torture -- EVEN if his action is


American Education, the Bush Administration, through its lackey, err, Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings, has decided to take on higher education. Early signs are that this will be undertaken with the same forethought and success that every Bush initiative has had.

An advisory commission report sent this month to Education Secretary Margaret Spellings recommends a wide range of proposals related to the accessibility, affordability and accountability of higher education.

I agree that higher education has become prohibitively expensive in many places. When costs rise 5-10% per year, that far outpaces inflation and earnings, and many schools have priced themselves out of the running for many students. However, the cause of these increases is not often identified. It's not new buildings, or faculty salaries, or Porsches for the dean. It's healthcare, same as with other businesses. Health care costs rose nearly 8% again last year (and 80% since 2000), and that's directly connected with the rise of tuition and fees at colleges.

To say, on the other hand, that higher education is not accessible or accountable, is patently absurd. There are hundreds and hundreds of four-year colleges and universities in this country, and thousands of two-year community colleges. In nearly any town of any reasonable size is some sort of institution of higher learning. Distance learning is becoming more and more common (see, for example, the University of Illinois' Global Campus Initiative).

• Convene a meeting with higher-education accrediting groups this year "to move toward measures that place more emphasis on learning." She says accreditation, the primary source of quality


it seems like a decade ago. I like to tell people when the final history is written on Iraq, it will look like just a comma because there is — my point is, there's a strong will for democracy

(AP) The Army is stretched so thin by the war in Iraq that it is again extending the combat tours of thousands of soldiers beyond the promised 12 months - the second such move since August. Soldiers of the 1st Brigade, 1st Armored Division had been expecting to return to their home base in Germany in mid-January. Instead, they will stay an extra 46 days in Iraq, until late February, the Pentagon announced Monday. The soldiers are operating in western Anbar province, one of the most violent parts of Iraq.

Theand a brass band, kicked ass again tonight.

The media makes much of such events, and tonight is no execption. (Oh my. The elder Bush is flipping coins. I wonder where Barbara is.) They'll try to suck all the life out of the event with maudlin speeches and fancy-sounding words. Ignore them. Watch the players. Watch the fans. Look in Joe Horn's eyes, remember the words he said 13 months ago. Remember the devastation. The failures. The dead.

According to new research, receiving hugs — a common support behavior that individuals engage in with a wide range of social partners — may buffer against deleterious changes in mood associated with interpersonal conflict.

Individuals who engage more frequently in interpersonal touch enjoy better physical and psychological health and improved relationships.

Researchers have proposed that interpersonal touch benefits well-being by helping to buffer against the deleterious consequences of psychological stress, and touch might be a particularly effective buffer of interpersonal conflict.

This possibility holds important potential implications for health and well-being because conflicts with others are associated with a large range of deleterious psychological and physical outcomes.

However, the generalizability of past research on this topic is limited because studies have largely focused on the role of touch in romantic relationships.

In theof Trump's actions.

As Taylor and fellow career diplomat George Kent recounted, Ukraine was ripe for the squeezing. The former Soviet republic in eastern Europe is locked in a life-and-death struggle with Russia, which had seized Crimea from Ukraine in 2014 and supported a separatist uprising that has claimed the lives of more than 13,000 Ukrainian troops.

REP. ANDY BIGGS: When impeachment proof falls short, Democrats shift goal posts

In April, Ukrainians overwhelmingly elected the 41-year-old Zelensky, a popular comic actor running as an anti-corruption crusader who would end the war. He was desperate to show the world, and Moscow, close ties with Washington by meeting with Trump in the Oval Office. And Zelensky's military was in dire need of the aid — what would amount to 10% of Ukraine's defense


the European Union. Sondland told the staffer that Trump cared less about Ukraine than about the investigations into Biden and his son Hunter.

Ginning up investigations

Kent made it clear he was appalled by Giuliani's "irregular" campaign "to gin up politically motivated investigations."

And as the summer dragged on, Taylor testified, "I had heard that the security assistance, not just the White House meeting, was conditioned on the investigations." Trump, he was told, viewed the whole enterprise through the lens of a businessman writing a check for services rendered: "If that person owed him something, before he signed the check, he was going to get whatever was owed to him.”

Something for something.

It very nearly worked. Faced with the existential threat of losing crucial military aid, Zelensky prepared to announce the investigationson CNN. But Trump's scheme was leaking out. A whistleblower's tipoff was winding its way to Congress. House committees were launching investigations. There were bipartisan demands to free the money. The White House relented Sept. 11.

"It's a rancorous story," Taylor, a West Point graduate and a veteran of the Vietnam War, summarized Wednesday, "about whistleblowers, Mr. Giuliani, side channels, quid pro quos, corruption and interference in elections."

Trump's defenders can argue that the aid was ultimately released and that Zelensky claimed not to have felt pressured. They can argue that the president's conduct doesn't warrant impeachment. They can argue that the voters, not Congress, ought to determine the president's fate. But to claim there was no quid pro quo is a flat-out lie.

The 457th Airlift Squadron is stationed on Joint Base Andrews, Maryland, but is a part of the 375th Air Mobility Wing at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois.

Although they are a geographically separated unit and a small squadron, their mission is essential to senior leaders and the Air Force.

"Our mission is to transport leaders, primarily within the U.S., to key destinations with as little as 48-hour notice," Lt. Col. John Borowski, 457 AS commander, said. "The unit is currently flying two missions a day."

Borowski took command in August 2014, of the only active-duty C-21 squadron in the United States.

One of the first challenges he faced was the loss two planes to budget cuts.

"It was challenging when I first got here, dealing with the Air Force


downsizing and manning," Borowski said. "However, it's was nice receiving great support from the 89th Airlift Wing and 11th Wing."

The unit continues to receive support from the 89th and 11th Wings such as communication, airfield support, safety and other necessary support.

The C-21's, assigned to the 457 AS, are one of the smallest jets in the U.S. military, having a maximum load of eight passengers and two crewmembers. Having a crew of two has come as a big change for some pilots.

"One of the biggest adjustments from flying C-130s is that I have no crew," Capt. Danny Samson, 457 AS pilot. "It is just the co-pilot and I."

Samson, like all pilots, has faced multiple challenges he had to overcome during a mission.

Ukraine today is perceived by Western politicians and experts as the subject of various geopolitical manipulation as a failed state. Russian politicians, like a mantra, repeated the idea that Ukraine - as an artificial entity, which became an independent state only as a result of the collapse of the Soviet Union - does not have sufficient internal subjectivity in order to conduct an independent role. Why in the global world today the most serious security threats do not come from a possible confrontation between the states and the states themselves from the instability? How objective politicians (commentators, journalists) and what purpose they serve, «hanging a «label «dysfunctional / failed state»? These and other questions, the author analyzes in the context of the current situation in Ukraine.

Community environmental health assessment strengthens environmental public health services in the Peruvian Amazon.
In December 1999, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere, Peru Country Office (CARE Peru), initiated the Urban Environmental Health Project (SAU, in Spanish) to strengthen environmental public health services in urban and periurban settlements in Peru. The project received funding from the Woodruff Foundation as part of the CARE-CDC Health Initiative (CCHI). The "Protocol for Assessing Community Excellence in Environmental Health" (PACE EH) guided the development of a community environmental public health assessment (CEHA) process in Cardozo, a settlement in Iquitos, Peru. The project developed a three-phase process that merged scientific understanding and community perception about local environmental health problems. In phase 1, local environmental healthgas and jets of water at tens of thousands of demonstrators, some of whom hurled back fireworks and molotov cocktails.

Thousands of lawyers also took to the streets of the capital Ankara.

Erdogan, meanwhile, held his first talks with some of the protest leaders, in his first conciliatory gesture since the trouble began.

But many demonstrators said the unexpected crackdown on Taksim Square, which had seen no police presence since June 1, had made them lose faith in any dialogue.“We don’t accept it,” said Gezi Park protester Anessa, a 29-year-old photographer, complaining that the government had cherry-picked the groups invited to the meeting.

large portrait of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the father of modern Turkey, whose image has also been adopted by the protesters.

Confident in his enduring popularity, Erdogan, in power since 2002, has urged loyalists to respond to the demonstrators by voting for the AKP in local polls next year.

His AKP has won three elections in a row and took nearly half the vote in 2011, having presided over strong economic growth.

The first campaign rallies will be staged in Ankara and Istanbul this weekend and are expected to gather tens of thousands of party faithful.

Turkey, a country of 76 million at the crossroads of East and West, is a key strategic partner in the region for the United States and other Western allies. Many of them have criticised Erdogan’s handling ofside seals disclosed in U.S. Pat.

However, the supply roller is usually made of a sponge. When the PET film makes sliding contact with the circumferential surface of the supply roller, the surface of the supply roller is liable to sustain


a "relative" of Bornstein, formed the Whitehall Insurance Company in 1961. In May, 1961, they acquired an inactive insurance company and activated it under the name of Whitehall Mutual Fire and Marine Insurance Company. Bornstein's brother-in-law, Grossgold, a New York attorney, became claims manager of Whitehall in 1962. In March of 1963 his employment by Whitehall was terminated, but as an independent attorney working in the Whitehall office building he continued to handle subrogation claims for Whitehall against other insurance companies on a percentage basis. It is upon the falsity in documents supporting the subrogation claims filed by Grossgold that the charges of fraud before us are based.

carry a greater risk: continued limited action on the part of Washington or more significant actions such as the establishment of a no-fly zone and arming the rebel forces with the weapons they need to stem the advance Assad's forces.

"Senator, I am in favor of building a moderate opposition and supporting it," Dempsey said. "The question whether to support it with direct kinetic strikes ... is a decision for our elected officials, not for the senior military leader of the nation."

The use of kinetic strikes, a military term that typically refers to missiles and bombs, "is under deliberation inside of our agencies of government," Dempsey said.

"There are a whole range of options that are out there," Navy Adm. James Winnefeld, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs, said of


the planning for military action in Syria. "We are ready to act if we're called on to act."

McCain later told a group of reporters he plans to block Dempsey's confirmation, saying he was dissatisfied with the answers to the questions Dempsey was asked about Syria.

Dempsey acknowledged in response to a question from Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., that Assad's forces have the upper hand in Syria.

"Currently the tide seems to have shifted in his favor," the general said.

The Armed Services Committee is considering Dempsey's and Winnefeld's nominations for a second term. The Democratic-led committee is all but certain to approve the reappointments.

Leading senators including Carl Levin, D-Mich., the committee chairman, and McCain, have been pressing Obama to take a more forceful approach to defeat Assad's forces. While theadministration has authorized lethal aid to rebel forces battling Assad's troops, it isn't trying to enforce a no-fly zone in which Syria's combat aircraft would be barred from flying, or otherwise intervene militarily to halt the war.

To avoid getting drawn deeper into Syria's civil war, administration officials have pointed to the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 as an example of what can go wrong when America's military becomes involved in Middle East conflicts.

"We've rushed to war in this region in the past. We're not going to do it here," Obama's chief of staff, Denis McDonough, said Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation."

During his exchange with McCain, Dempsey said "situations can be made worse by the introduction of military force" without first understanding how the country would continue

Welcome to Ghana, Africa’s friendliest country. Formerly known as the “Gold Coast”, Ghana stands out as a preferred tourist destination in West Africa with its rich and glorious history, time-honoured traditions and art, and natural scenic beauty.

The centuries-old monuments along the shores of Ghana, which today have become World Heritage Sites, attest to Europe’s trade links with Africa and the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. Ghana pioneered the cause of Pan-Africanism, leading other African countries to attain independence from colonial rule.

You will be enthralled by the fascinating cultural experiences that link the past to the present in the institution of chieftaincy and rich regalia, the celebration of annual colourful traditional festivals, a rich array and variety of handicrafts, and the famed hospitality of the Ghanaian people.Conrad Black says he is "pretty relaxed" about his pending return to prison, while remaining insistent that he did not break the law.

In a 45-minute interview with Matt Galloway of CBC Toronto Radio's Metro Morning recorded August 2nd from New York City, Black says: "I can see quite clearly, looming larger every day, the end of this horrible sequence of events."

Conrad Black uncut Listen to Matt Galloway's full interview with Conrad Black

Convicted of obstruction of justice and fraud in 2007, Black served 29 months in the Coleman federal prison in Florida of his original 78-month sentence before the U.S. Supreme Court struck down some of his initial convictions, citing a misuse of the "honest services" provision of the U.S. fraud statute.

In June of this year, he was resentenced


figures of much more natural or earned authority than they actually possess," he said, referring to prison guards and officials.

The interview with Black was recorded in advance of the launch of his next book, A Matter of Principle, on Sept. 15. He said he wrote the book, much of which was completed during his first stint in prison, to present his version of events.

"I tried to be fair, I tried to admit error by, you know, on my own part where I felt there was some, and there was some," he said. "The main point of [writing the book] it is to assault, in as violent and persuasive a manner as possible, this absolute fraud that I would ever, or did, break the law.

Black also talked about thefor fourth place and the final Champions League position. Whether or not, Rodgers had enough tactical ability or on-the-field quality to compete with Chelsea, both Manchester clubs, Arsenal and Tottenham was a source of constant debate.

And with Liverpool starting the season with their best player Luis Suarez suspended for the first six games of the season; it made things even more difficult for Rodgers.

But Liverpool did something untypical of squads previously managed by Rodgers — they grinded out results. And when Suarez finally returned from suspension, the goals began pouring in and the Merseyside club went on a run leading into its first top four encounter against Arsenal at the Emirates.

What followed was a disappointing 2-0 defeat to the Gunners. The loss cemented in many minds that Liverpool


flair that hasn’t been seen for some time at Anfield.

A few weeks later, Liverpool trounced Arsenal in a match that was over after the first ten minutes. Rodgers was widely applauded for his tactics in the 5-1 demolition of Arsene Wenger’s London side.

Liverpool would later hand 5-0 and 3-0 defeats to Tottenham and Manchester United respectively. The club then capped off wins in 10 straight games (undefeated in twelve BPL games) by defeating Manchester City 3-2 this past weekend.

With four matches to play, Liverpool controls its own destiny and are on course to win their first-ever Premier League title (first English title since 1990).

No one predicted Rodgers would have his club in this position with so few games remaining in the season.

Roberto Martinez – Everton

Everton were another teamthat many experts predicted “could” challenge for a top four position at the start of the season. But whether Roberto Martinez could navigate his way through the sea of Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham in his first season in charge of the Merseyside club (the Blue half) was a source of serious doubt.

But Martinez has taken the solid defensive principles left by David Moyes and infused his own attacking, possession-based philosophy to the club. The manager has brought something out of his returning players which must have been laying dormant for the past few seasons. Whatever the case, along with some shrewd transfer window negotiations which saw the arrivals of many players, including: Romelu Lukaku (on loan from Chelsea), Gareth Barry (on loan from Manchester


City), James McCarthy (bought from Wigan) and Gerard Deulofeu (on loan from Barcelona); Roberto Martinez has had Everton play some exciting football over the course of this season.

The club began the season undefeated in its first five BPL matches, including a 1-0 over Chelsea at Goodison Park. But defeats at Fulham and Manchester City would dampen the early celebrations.

Everton would draw with Liverpool in the first Merseyside derby and later play to a standoff against Arsenal at the Emirates. Results would remain steady over the course of the following weeks, but Roberto Martinez’ side were left reeling after Liverpool ran rampant over Everton in the January 28 return encounter of the Merseyside derby.

That loss was followed by defeats to Tottenham and Chelsea on the road. Everton were outsideof the top four looking in and most experts had come to the conclusion that Martinez’ club were heading for the Europa League in 2014-15; which would still be a major step forward for a side that finished in sixth place in 2012-13.

But following a 4-1 FA Cup defeat to Arsenal, Everton began a run six straight Premier League wins which put them right on the tails of Arsenal for fourth place and the final Champions League position. Within that stretch was a rousing 3-0 win over Arsenal which saw Roberto Martinez’ men pull within one point of top four.

What set that match aside from others was the fact that the Spanish-born manager completely outwitted the longest tenured manager in the league, Arsene Wenger. Everton scored two goals


in the first half and could have had more. It was a complete demolition of a Champions League-tested squad and one of the better managers in Premier League history.

Everton would briefly take four place following a win over Sunderland. But Arsenal’s 3-1 victory over West Ham and Everton’s home loss to Crystal Palace this week has seen the Gunners remain a point ahead of Martinez’ side.

Again, with four games remaining, Roberto Martinez has Everton exceeding expectations and barring a complete collapse, the club will be playing European football next season. The first-year manager deserves recognition for the job his has done over the course of this season.

Tony Pulis – Crystal Palace

If it weren’t for Sunderland, Tony Pulis would have taken over the worst team in the Premier LeagueLeague for many years. But his Crystal Palace side has slowly grown into something more than the “kick and hope” style that Stoke City striker Kenwyne Jones referred to in September.

Pulis has brought organization and structure to the club, bringing discipline to a team that recognized its own limitations.

With that said, the manager has played to his team’s strengths. He has admitted that he has different types of players at Palace as opposed to the squad he had with Stoke City.

Pulis has worked more at taking opposing midfielders off the ball when they are stretched and the manager has utilized the pace within his squad. Also, Palace’s passing and movement leading in to the final four games of the season has been shockingly fluid and efficient.

But what Pulis


did from Day One was infuse confidence into a defeated group of players. The manager let it be known in his first meeting with the players that he has never been relegated as a manager.

When Pulis was named manager, Crystal Palace were sitting on four points after eleven BPL matches. Since that time (23 matches), the club has taken 36 points and sit more than comfortably in eleventh place in the Premier League.

On March 29th, Pulis handed Jose Mourinho an unexpected loss and dealt a huge blow to Chelsea’s title charge. Following that match, Palace defeated Cardiff City and Aston Villa to further distance themselves from the bottom three.

While many fans and experts thought Crystal Palace would be relegated or (best case) counting down the days until theytime working in Sports Information at various colleges and universities. His articles on European football have been picked up by Bleacher Report UK, International Business Times UK and USA Today.

Has to be Rodgers. A few managers lead their team to midtable from the lower divisions every year, but going from 7th to first is a once ever 10-20 years type of thing.

I don’t completely disagree with the cnl., above. His point is well taken, but Rodgers has been at it 2 years now with Liverpool and has had the opportunity to alter, change and improve the club.

What Pulis did, in 5 months with no such opportunity, was step in to a club already mired in defeat and disarray, grab it by the scruff

Indeed, the forecast error for Maria’s wind speed is one of the worst for a 24-hour hurricane forecast in the past five years.

The National Hurricane Center expected Maria to intensify, but not anywhere close to the degree that it did. The center’s 11 p.m. forecast on Sunday night said Maria would be a low-end Category 3 storm with maximum sustained winds of 115 mph when it got close to Dominica on Monday evening. In reality, the wind speed ended up being 160 mph, a forecasting error of 45 mph. The difference in these


that the conditions for the storm to develop into a stronger hurricane were there: There was little wind shear (changes in wind direction over short distances), the ocean was warm and the mid-levels of the atmosphere were moist. But forecasters were playing catchup. By late Monday morning, the National Hurricane Center projected Maria to be a Category 4 storm by the time it hit Dominica about 12 hours later — a smaller underestimation than the forecast the night before. A large part of the problem was that weather forecasting models were consistently underestimating how the favorable conditions for hurricane intensification would boost Maria’s wind speeds.

McDonald's, Nestlé and Virgin Media have joined a new blockchain project, seeking to increase the transparency of online advertising, Campaign news agency reports.

The initiative is being promoted by the Joint Industry Committee for Web Standards (JICWEBS), the UK-based body that monitors trade standards for digital advertising. It aims to assess the potential of the blockchain in the digital advertising supply chain.

The project was first announced in May 2019, and now it is joined by global industry giants such as Zenith, OMD UK and Manning Gottlieb OMD, who will evaluate the blockchain's potential in the digital advertising industry by the end of 2019.

In particular, media agencies will check not only the blockchain's potential to increase trust and transparency in the advertising supply chain but alsoroadways and utility infrastructure required. PHOTO BY BLUE SKY AERIALS.

Fort Bliss, located in El Paso, Texas, was ideal for BRAC expansion in part due to climate characteristics similar to potential theaters of operations and large expanses of available training land. The El Paso community fully embraced base expansion. They supported construction of highways and interchanges as well as a state-of-the-art desalinization facility to mitigate water supply concerns.

Even as peripheral factors fell into place, the Army still was faced with the challenge of preparing a 160-year-old military installation in the Chihuahuan Desert for a 250 percent increase in soldiers and their families. It still had to reconcile an expansion program that would eventually encompass 130 projects involving 300 buildings and 4,500-acres covering 11 million-ft² of work and living space.


And all this had to happen within a sevenyear window.

As the leader of the Fort Bliss Expansion Program, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Fort Worth District used a Land Development Engineer (LDE)/Product-Line approach. It would be supported by USACE Little Rock, Tulsa, Galveston, Albuquerque and Sacramento Districts, with each procuring specialized “product line” facility types using uniform processes. To support this and serve as LDE, the agency selected a joint venture of Huitt Zollars and Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. to provide program management support, planning, site infrastructure development and design, and staff augmentation with more than 120 full-time personnel.

INTEGRATED TEAM APPROACH

Recognizing that the design and construction work would be part of a much larger effort to transform Fort Bliss into a modern Army post, the teamelected to became a part of “TeamBliss,” the installation’s moniker for unifying and empowering its workforce.

The construction effort—which at its peak would add approximately 3,000 members to TeamBliss—included employees from six USACE districts and two divisions, six Centers of Standardization, the USACE Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL), U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center Huntsville (HNC), Installation Management Command and USACE HQ. The City of El Paso as well as designers, schedulers, estimators, project engineers, contract specialists, program and project managers, and quality assurance representatives all engaged in TeamBliss.

TeamBliss operated under a single Program Management Plan that followed a holistic approach throughout. The objectives of this mission-focused project delivery correlated directly with the goals and vision outlined in the Army Campaign Plan. That meant being solidly focused on sustaining


Army soldiers and their families. A governance structure was established that aligned the program with defined functional areas to facilitate execution of the aggressive expansion. Programs and projects were delivered by integrated teams grouped under eight primary program areas. A program team represented the interests of USACE Fort Worth District as the executing organization and key stakeholder. It provided the overarching governance and quality assurance, as well as guidance and decisions regarding program direction.

As part of the Program Management Plan, TeamBliss established a communication strategy to ensure that information critical to project execution was disseminated throughout the life of the program. Vast amounts of data on projects under construction necessitated efficiency and cohesion. That prompted the use of many tools to facilitate information sharing with major stakeholders. Theseincluded an Integrated Master Schedule (IMS), a submittal tracker, task order accounting, and a virtual team site on the Engineering Knowledge Online (EKO®) portal to communicate lessons learned. Weekly meetings, monthly program reports, periodic informal meetings with local community stakeholders, workshops, charrettes and teleconferences were all used to promote collective situational awareness that informed timely decisions.

Building a city from the ground up— that essentially was the challenge at Fort Bliss. The largest area of greenfield in the expansion program, East Fort Bliss, includes three Heavy Brigade Combat Teams, two Infantry Brigade Combat Teams, a Combat Aviation Brigade, a Fires Brigade, Training Campus, 1st Armored Division Headquarters, and a Town Center where community support functions are located.

The new Town Center at Fort Bliss was planned with a walkable, human-scaled

The people voted in the GOP in the House for a reason, to counter the Democrats and the President, they are of a different party that do not see eye to eye and it was the President who consitantly refused to listen to the GOP in the House. Further, the Senate leader refuses to bring up any bills sponsored by the GOP members,so the failure of the President to get anything done is his fault and the people spoke in 2010 to elect a GOP house to 'STOP' the Democrats.

Barack Obama is the President of the United States and as such is also the Commander-in-Chief of all our nations' military forces. Some of the comments made are, in my opinion, shameful and certainly disrespectful of the office and the man himself. No one has to like the President as a human being regardless of who he is, but to disrespect the man and the office he occupies is un-american in principle and in fact. All Americans need to support their president andagree with many of this president's policies, but that he was doing as he thought right.

Now she heads to college to play soccer and continue to take on academic challenges.
Peerey wasn’t afraid to take on any obstacles. Standing 6’5, he went out for basketball and developed into a solid center for the Trojans. Baseball was his primary sport in high school and he was a standout pitcher his junior season.
Peerey seemed to step up where he was needed in baseball. His senior season he was needed for defense and leadership in the dugout.

Johnson was a Lady Cardinal standout in volleyball and basketball the past four years. Now Fleming took a stab for a year at basketball, track and baseball while at Millington. But his main sport was football.
Fleming was the go-to speedster for quarterback Eldon Tyms. He was the playmaker of the 2015 season. If Fleming caught the ball, he was usually the fastest player on the field and was going to the house.
Standing 5’7 and about a buck-40 in the rain, Fleming’s heart was an unmeasurable asset for the Trojans. He gave that same 100 percent in baseball and basketball giving his all for his coaches, teammates and the Black and Gold.
Up the roadmanaged to make me chuckle or simply shed a tear from laughter. Johnson has made me laugh in Flag City and in Tipton County during her one-year at Brighton.
She has a colorful humor. Johnson uses physical comedy not afraid to leap into her teammate’s arms or doing weird poses for photos. She will wear costumes and hit you with the verbal blasts.
Now to “The Show” Dupree, even before high school he had charisma. Later to be known as sagg. He uses a confident delivery to get his jokes and humor across. Then he will rav it up to cockiness to get the bigger laughs.
Then Dupree will use a pure type of humor like dressing up as an ESPN commentator with a cardboard broadcast table to brighten up others


I'd argue that a few high-profile outcomes placed analytics in a more favorable light and, again, these results were not preordained. San Antonio winning the 2007 championship, for instance, or Dallas losing in the first round in 2010 -- both were cases where the analytics zigged very publicly when most of the world zagged. While the odds were in their favor, these were not guaranteed outcomes.

An equally large part of the story starts right here in late 2004. That's when ESPN.com's secret weapon, also known as Royce Webb, hatched the idea that the world was ready for basketball analytics and that it could serve as a cornerstone of our coverage. He teamed with far-sighted editors like Chris Ramsay and Patrick Stiegman to not just run a few columns,(CNN) Iowa Republican Rep. Steve King, an immigration hardliner, said Wednesday that Congress does not have to do anything to protect young immigrants who came to the country illegally as children. Instead, King said they can "live in the shadows."

"They continue to live the objective that they sought to achieve when they illegally entered America," King told reporters. "Live in the shadows."

King's comments came after the Trump administration announced Tuesday that it would end the Obama-era program known as DACA, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, in six months. The delayed deadline is meant to give Congress time to find a legislative solution to protect DACA recipients from deportation, but some, like King, say that the group shouldn't expect Congress to act.

In an interview with CNN, King said that


persons who buy firearms they claim are for themselves when in reality they are buying the weapons for another party. These four men were involved in a large-scale gun trafficking organization responsible for buying guns on behest of Mexican drug Cartels.

They may have dope and money by the boat load, but Cartels are in desperate need of guns, guns, and more guns. Traffic between Mexico and the United States can easily be broken down into categories. Drugs are smuggled across the border into the United States and in return firearms are smuggled out of the United States and into Mexico. The American consumer loves him some dope and is paying the Mexican suppliers royally. According to a 2009 Justice Department report, the top estimated amount Mexican and Colombiandrug trafficking organizations make in wholesale profits is around $39 billion annually. A dazzling figure that is within reach of those organizations that control the precious drug routes from Mexico into the United States.

THE WAR OVER $39 BILLION-DOLLAR-DRUG ROUTES

The U.S. Department of Justice says these billion-dollar-routes are controlled by seven main Cartels. Those are: The Sinaloa Cartel, Los Zetas, the Gulf Cartel, the Juárez Cartel, the Beltrán-Leyva Organization, La Familia Michoacana, and the Tijuana Cartel. Authorities view the Sinaloa Cartel as the preeminent organization because its members traffic all major illicit drugs, and its extensive distribution network supplies drugs to all regions of the United States. The Sinaloa Cartel is particularly dominant because it is one of the few Cartels that can obtain multi ton quantities of cocaine


during a single visit to a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL). Some agents told us that they were surprised by the volume of firearms purchasing that occurs in Arizona as compared to their experience in non-Southwest Border states.”

Surprised but on the case. Despite the lack of regulations, the ATF still had the law on its side. Each buyer had to fill out Form 4473. This form, among many things, requires the buyer to certify that he is the actual purchaser of the firearm. Form 4473 indicates that it is unlawful for an individual to purchase a firearm for someone else (unless it is a gift), and a gun dealer may not sell a firearm to anyone he knows is not the actual purchaser. After some investigating it was obviousdepth, on both sides of the border, that focuses on the leadership and assets of the cartel.”

For the Attorney General and his underlings at the Justice Department it was pretty simple. If they arrested the straw buyers the Cartels would just replace them with others, so why not let these straw buyers go free and let them lead ATF to their bosses? The idea was to let the trafficking of guns continue until the whole route was mapped out by the ATF and the gun ring was linked to the Cartel higher ups. Invigorated by this new strategy set out by the Justice Department, the ATF went to work and began Operation Fast and Furious.

OPERATION FAST AND FURIOUS

In the days following October 31, 2009, the newly formed Group


VII in the ATF Phoenix Field Division opened an investigation into four suspected straw purchasers who were buying guns in and around Phoenix, Arizona. Now called Operation Fast and Furious it was originally named the “Jacob Chambers” case, after the straw purchaser who was the first to pop up on the ATF’s radar. Chambers had been arrested in 2008 for felony burglary and trafficking stolen property and was now a very active member of a gun smuggling ring. Other members of the ring were Jaime Avila Jr., who was identified by the ATF in November, and Uriel Patino, who would turn out to be the most prolific straw buyer of the bunch.

Background checks conducted in November 2009 established that the suspects did not have criminal histories. The agentsfurther determined that the men were paying cash for the firearms purchases but did not have identifiable sources of income to support their buying activity. Surveillance conducted during November identified two “stash houses” for the firearms being purchased. One stash house was American Autobody, an automotive shop located in Phoenix and owned by Hector Carlon. This location created a challenge for agents conducting surveillance because they could not observe activity, such as transfers of firearms, within the shop’s garage or on its fenced-in parking lot and therefore could not make informed judgments about which, if any, vehicles to follow when they left the auto body shop.

The other stash house was a Phoenix residence owned by an individual named Manuel Celis-Acosta. ATF agents soon identified him as the leader


of the various straw buyers. A man in his mid-twenties, Celis-Acosta was unemployed, dumped cellphones as if they were vegetables gone bad, and drove a BMW. Not exactly the life of an average citizen. The ATF saw Celis-Acosta as the first step towards nailing two drug lords they had their eyes on. As the Justice Department had changed the goal from closing down gun trafficking rings to shutting down entire Cartel branches Celis-Acosta went from target number one to just another stepping stone.

UP THE CHAIN: AKs AND “COP KILLERS”

On May 29, 2010, U.S. Customs and Border Protection stopped Celis-Acosta’s BMW at an Arizona point of entry for an outbound inspection. After inspecting the vehicle they recovered “an AK type high capacity drum magazine loaded with 74 rounds of7.62 ammunition underneath the spare tire in the trunk.” When CBP ran the Celis-Acosta’s name through the computer they learned he was the principal target of a firearms investigation and contacted their colleagues at ICE, who in turn made a call to the ATF. Within a few hours the gun trafficker was sitting opposite two agents, one from ATF - the lead case agent of Operation Fast and Furious - and one from ICE. At first he denied knowing anything about the magazines and ammunition found in his car, but after some interrogation he slowly but surely began giving up information. He admitted that his venture to Mexico was for the purpose of starting up a drug trafficking business and went into great detail about his relationship with


Celis-Acosta. He promised to call her when he returned to Mexico, but he never did. It was the first sign that despite appearances Fast and Furious was not rolling along exactly according to plan. Still, with the help of Celis-Acosta the ATF should have no problem getting close to Cartel bosses.

With the drug lords in sight, the ATF proceeded to allow the gun trafficking ring to smuggle hundreds of firearms into Mexico unhindered. Like a child playing with fire, it seemed the ATF had no real clue what was transpiring under their very own eyes. November 20, 2009, marked the day of the first known recovery of weapons purchased by Fast and Furious straw purchasers. ATF and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”) agents recovered 42 weapons inNaco, Sonora, Mexico. Although trace results from the seizure were not officially completed until ten days later, ATF had entered some of the recovered weapons into the Suspect Gun Database two weeks before they seized them, since suspected Fast and Furious straw purchasers had bought them. This allowed ATF agents to learn almost immediately that the weapons seized in Naco were connected to the Chambers straw-purchasing ring. When the U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona was told of the large weapons recovery in Mexico, he responded: “Wow, frickin-A! They were already across the Border heading south?”

ATF quickly learned the guns were making their way to the Mexican border in extremely short periods of time. On December 10, 2009, an ATF agent wrote: “On Tuesday we followed a


a screeching halt.

“I’M HIT!”

Despite being 18 miles from the Mexican border, the very remote and rugged area between Rio Rico and the border town of Nogales was notorious for bandit activity. A tactical unit of the Border Patrol had received intelligence about bandits being in the area and was conducting surveillance. Bandits preyed on illegal immigrants coming into the United States. After a long journey that left most of them exhausted they were easy targets for the criminals, who would assault and rob them. Sometimes they would even rape a woman or two.

The Border Patrol agents were determined to prevent any such crimes on their watch. One of the members of the unit was 40-year-old Brian A. Terry (photo above). He had been a Border Patrol agent forthree-and-a-half years now after having served his country as a United States Marine. As the unit moved through the dusty land they encountered a group of five people. Agent Terry and several other agents were attempting to apprehend the group when shots were exchanged between the suspects and agents. Terry was struck in the pelvis by a round fired by a suspect armed with an AK-47. “I’m hit!” he yelled. One bandit, Manuel Osorio-Arellanes, a 33-year-old Mexican from Sinaloa, was shot and apprehended while four others managed to flee. With their wounded partner a priority, agents immediately started giving him emergency care. They kept him alive until he was flown to a hospital. Unfortunately he succumbed to his wounds early the following morning.

Two AK-47s were found at the


soon as the guns traced back to Avila Jr., agents burst through his door and placed him under arrest. A few weeks later, on January 19, 2011, twenty people were indicted and charged with straw buying for the Mexican drug cartels. Hundreds of firearms were shipped from the United States into Mexico under the eyes of American authorities and no Cartel bosses were arrested when the operation came to a close on December 15 of 2010. Operation Fast and Furious was the largest firearms trafficking case involving the U.S.-Mexico border in the history of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives yet it’s results were far from stellar.

NO END IN SIGHT: ACCEPTING MURDER

After traveling on the wrong side of the road for years, those involved in OperationFast and Furious, both criminals and members of law enforcement and Washington’s elite alike, were scrambling for cover when outrage over their behavior rained down on them.

Republicans accused the Obama administration of a cover-up when the President used his executive privilege to block the release of internal communications from February 4, 2011, in which Attorney General Eric Holder and the Department of Justice claim they said they did everything they could to stop the flow of illegal weapons to Mexico, while facts thus far show the contrary. It was the first time Obama had used his executive privilege during his presidency. Republicans then voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. He is the only cabinet member in U.S. history to have that distinction.

Turkey only participated in the war against Isis/Daesh after a long delay, and never with much conviction. For Erdoğan it was just an excuse to pursue his eternal single aim, that of combatting all the Kurdish militias in Syria, but especially those fighting alongside the Coalition in territory bordering Turkey. The only possible explanation for this attitude is his intention to prevent the formation of an autonomous Kurdish state after the Syrian war ends. Strategically, Erdoğan aims to prevent not only the birth of a second Kurdish state in the area, which could in


like that of north-east Syria.

If all this has been obvious since 2011, the position of the United States is less clear. Trump has accustomed us to the "bipolar" attitude of his entire administration, both in terms of behaviour and in terms of domestic and foreign policy, and it is apparent even here. Nevertheless, there is a logic in the attitude of Trump and his faithful collaborator Pompeo. The USA did not enter Syria to destroy Daesh, but, on the contrary, originally contributed to its birth, arming and financing it on a par with Turkey and its allies, in order to prevent Russia from continuing to have the use of Syrian ports and naval bases. Its other aims were: to contain the Iranian presence in the Gulf, to underminethe Shiite coalition (Assad’s Syria, Lebanese Hezbollah, Iraqis, Iranians and the Houthi rebels in Yemen) which in Syria (but not only there) contended for supremacy over the entire Persian Gulf under the aegis of Russia, as well as the Mediterranean, the major oil and gas pipelines that flow from the north-east of Russia down to Iran towards Europe, and the Arabian Sea. All of this seriously damaged US imperialist aims and its allies in the region.

But Russian military intervention in the Syrian war (2014) shifted the balance of power on the ground to the point where Assad’s government, from being on the point of falling, has remained in power, whilst the war of all against all has formally ended in favour of the Moscow-Damascus axis. Previous peace attempts,


better defined as attempts at partitioning Syria (the Sochi Accords)(2) have failed, so Trump, while realising this was a defeat, thought it better to cut his losses, but under certain conditions. The first, hidden behind a hypocritical statement in which Trump, asked "What are we doing in Syria spending money on small tribal wars?" was to abandon Syria by withdrawing the troops. This was nothing but the implementation of a previously decided plan, even if his collaborators have forced him to keep a military contingent of a couple of thousand men and two hundred military advisers there.

While deploring Turkey's initiative to invade the north-east of Syria and shamelessly denying that he has turned a blind eye to Erdoğan's aggression against the Kurds, the US’ other faithful ally, thewithdrawal of most US troops has in fact given the green light to the Turkish army. Ankara's stated aim is to create a broad security zone along the Turkish border to be transformed into a place of refuge for the almost three million Syrian refugees. In reality the aim is to achieve all the objectives previously underlined. For the US it was like saying: the war is not over, but the destabilisation of the area is useful in weakening the Assad regime and its great ally, Russian imperialism. Erdoğan has thus been allowed a free hand by the US, even at the tragic cost of more of the bloodletting that has already engulfed Syria(3) for eight years, all due to the insatiable thirst of the imperialist actors who


are operating in this tragic land of death and refugees. The latter are the victims of a world crisis that first triggers, then exacerbates, the conflicts that remain the means of survival for capitalism and its incurable contradictions.

Fighting capitalism for the only possible alternative – communism – means fighting war in all its manifestations, combatting imperialism in all its guises as the main instigator of war. This also means not falling into the nationalist game of the Kurdish minorities who, in order to pursue their objective – a bourgeois and capitalist nation state – hitch their wagon to imperialism and become a tool that, once its usefulness is over, is cast aside. This is the case of the YPG, exploited by the USA against ISIS and then handedover to Turkish imperialism.

In addition, the imperialist drama staged a "ceasefire", which the Turkish army did not respect, in order to provide a negotiated solution to this umpteenth conflict and to grant, in their goodness, the possibility for the civilian population to escape. All this while Putin, treading carefully, promised protection to the Kurds, whilst letting Assad's troops reach the border area with Turkey. At the same time, however, through the mouth of his foreign minister Lavrov, he made an ambiguous statement that the war crisis triggered by Erdoğan was a matter between Turkey and the Kurds of north-eastern Syria. Behind this hypocritical and tragic scenario, the United States, despite their formal protests to Ankara, have removed their troops, moving them further south to Iraq, thus giving a

According to a Parrot Analytics study, the very first MCU television show is more popular than any of the Marvel shows that are currently on Netflix.

Agents of SHIELD is unique in many ways, one being that it gets better with each new season. Despite this fact, the show is in danger of cancellation every year, with its sixth season being cut down to 13 episodes. This journey of possible cancellation has been harrowing for the die-hard fans, who will surely be ecstatic to learn of the show's worldwide popularity.

According to a Screen Rant exclusive, Agents of SHIELD is even more popular than Daredevil, which is Netflix's most in-demand superhero show.


SHIELD is arguably one of the most compelling show on network television. If you've hesitated in giving it a try, this new study is proof that it might be worth your time.

Agents of SHIELD stars Clark Gregg reprising his role as Phil Coulson, a fan-favorite from Phase One of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While the show has diverged from the MCU over time, it still maintains a perfect balance between keeping its own identity and respecting the world-building of the films.

The former USC and Los Angeles Raiders quarterback prodigy, whose football career and life has famously been derailed by substance abuse on multiple occasions, was in Indian Wells on Friday for a news conference to announce that he is returning to competitive football.

The former NFL and college star who just turned 48 on July 4, has joined the desert's developmental football team the SoCal Coyotes after serving as an assistant coach last season. He will be in uniform and in the huddle at Shadow Hills High School for the team's first practice Aug. 10. That's quite a change in scenery for Marinovich compared to where he was the previous August.

On Aug. 22, 2016 Marinovich was tackled by his


addiction again. He was arrested in Irvine when he was found naked wandering around someone's backyard with marijuana and a paper bag with meth and syringes in it. He was cited for trespassing, possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of marijuana.

The next month, he moved to the desert. He's been sober ever since.

"I can't really take credit for anything," he said to 30 or so assembled media, friends and family at Vue Grille and Bar in Indian Wells. "The only thing that I was given was the gift of desperation, which it takes to get started. And I am a work in progress. God works in ways that I never really saw untilto competitive football? He really, really loves football.

"It's the greatest game on the planet and I've been away from it for so long, and I can't think of anything more fun," he said. "Recovery has changed every aspect of my life and made it better so why wouldn't that carry over to the football field?"

Marinovich is also excited for his 8-year-old son Baron and six year old daughter Coski to see him play for the first time.

The Coyotes' coach, J. David Miller, said Marinovich's transition from quarterbacks coach to quarterback wasn't planned, but just kind of happened naturally. He said he's come a long way since he joined the team just weeks after his
