SAN FRANCISCO — Two law firms that have made names for themselves in asbestos, personal injury, products liability and other class actions now are looking for victims of California's devastating Camp Fire to represent, according to a recent press release.
"If you were impacted by the Camp Fire and wish to discuss your legal options, please call us," Baron & Budd and Dixon Diab & Chambers, referring to themselves collectively as the "Wildfire Recovery Attorneys", said in the press release issued Nov. 15.
The press release, republished largely verbatim by dozens of media outlets, also announced the filing of a lawsuit in San Francisco County on behalf of a Paradise, California resident whose home allegedly was destroyed in the Camp Fire in Northern California.
The press release names only the case number, CGC-18-571324, which traces to a nonexempt complaint, Sharron Holinsworth v Pacific Gas & Electric Corporation et. al., filed Nov. 14 in San Francisco County Superior Court.
Ahmen S. Diab, a partner and head of Dixon Diab & Chambers’ mass tort practice with a focus on pharmaceutical, medical device and wildfire litigation, is listed as Holinsworth's attorney in online information about the case.
"In the suit, the firms allege that the fire began when electrical infrastructure owned, operated and maintained by Pacific Gas & Electric failed causing a spark and ignited the massive blaze," the press release said. "As a result of this alleged wrongdoing, the fire has, to date, claimed the lives of more than 56 people, destroyed more than 8,000 structures and burned approximately 135,000 acres. The fire has also destroyed a significant portion of the city of Paradise."
Case management conference has been scheduled for April 17, according to the online San Francisco County Superior Court case information.
Damages sought in the lawsuit include destruction of property, "loss of cherished possessions" and evacuation expenses, the press release said.
"It is 100 percent the responsibility of utility providers, such as PG&E, to properly maintain their wires and electrical infrastructure," Baron & Budd shareholder John Fiske was quoted as saying in the press release. "We believe that these fires were caused by PG&E's repeated failures to keep their service delivery safe and we intend to hold them accountable for the devastation they have created."
The two firms claim in the lawsuit to represent more than 800 families and victims of the wild fires in Northern California this year against PG&E, in addition to more than 300 wild fire victims pursuing litigation against Southern California Edison.
Baron and Budd, founded in 1977 by the late Frederick Martin "Fred" Baron, best known for toxic and chemical exposure litigation during his lifetime, is based in Dallas while Dixon Diab & Chambers is based in San Diego. The press release includes information about Baron and Budd's history representing clients in the Gulf oil spill, nursing home abuse, asbestos-related illnesses and other litigation and Dixon Dian & Chambers' work in personal injury and other class actions, including wild fire litigation in the 2015 Butte and 2017 North Bay fires.
The Holinsworth case is not the only one filed against PG&E in San Francisco County Superior Court in the wake of the Camp Fire. Quammen Et Al vs. PGE, with 25 plaintiffs all described as an "owner and/or occupants of real property damaged by the Camp Fire" was filed with the court Nov. 13. Attorneys in that litigation are Michael Danko with Danko Meredith in Redwood Shores, Dario Bruce Deghetaldi with Corey, Luzaich, De Ghetaldi & Riddle in Millebrae and Eric H. Gibbs with Gibbs Law Group in Oakland.

Copenhagen is far from the only municipality, there are looking large amounts of waste water out in the Sound.
Just 300 metres out from the coast at Bellevue Beach, Gentofte Municipality have for years done the same.
In just five years in the period 2014 to 2018 has Gentofte emitted ten billion gallons of untreated waste water out in the Sound, shows a access TV 2 Lorry has made of the environmental protection Agency.
the waste water consists of toilet water, domestic water and storm water from overflowing sewers. Together with Copenhagen, in the same period have emitted 35 billion gallons of untreated wastewater, Gentofte making it one of the big all emitters of wastewater in the metropolitan area.
It comes quite a bit behind on the swimmers at the Bellevue Beach, TV 2 Lorry has spoken with.
- It is terrible. I have good enough is not known, says Jytte Petersen.
- I think it is a little strange, when it is an area which is being used by a great many families, and there are many who use it for sports activities, says Linda Paulsen.
Jannie Kærn is indignant.
- It destroys the whole of our seabed and the environment. It will be livfarligt to go in the water. It is not many years ago, you had so many bacteria in the water, so you called it lorterenden and pløresund. It should not be repeated, she says.
the context is the ten billion gallons of untreated waste water from the Gentofte Municipality, however, only a little, explains Mathias Middelboe, who is a professor at the marine biology Section at Copenhagen University.
- If compared with the annual supply of nutrients and organic matter to the Sound, so it's quite small quantities. So it is maybe a few percent extra, which is injected via the here untreated wastewater, which are being led out, he says to TV 2 Lorry.
In periods with the discharge of the wastewater would the professor, however, also have concerns about to jump in the sea. And he would advance examine the flow - and the weather conditions thoroughly.
- Immediately I would say that there is a risk that water quality will decline in the immediate environment where the discharge takes place. So I think perhaps, that I would think about two times, says Mathias Middelboe.
And it is far from just the quality of bathing water, it is all about. Many of the marine bunddyr is vulnerable to low iltkoncentartioner. In the worst case, with major consequences to follow.
- Yes, so do you beat the wildlife to death. It is all larger organisms. Snails, mussels, sea urchins and starfish and so on, says Mathias Middelboe.
And the large emissions of organic substances and nutrients, harmonizes poorly with the plans to make the Sound to the marine national park, believes the professor.
It amazes me that you are pouring untreated waste water out in some areas. And I can well understand if people think it is disgusting, says Mathias Middelboe.
At the Bellevue Beach, the visitor is also in doubt.
- I think it is something bad. And I think it is disrespectful to us the citizens all along the coast, that we don't have a clue that there are led waste water out, which is so polluted. Children bathe here, " says Linda Paulsen.
Neither the water company Novafos or Gentofte Municipality wanted to put up for interview on the matter.
the President of the Engineering and Environment committee in the Gentofte Municipality in denmark, Karen Riis Kjølbye from The Conservatives, writes for TV 2 Lorry, that the economic framework laid down by the state restricts the municipality's investment in waste water systems.

Gary Hargrave and Hargrave Ministries raising donations for IDF Widows and Orphans Organization
The world can be a dark place sometimes, and when we are not our brother’s keeper, the problem grows larger and larger. Some people give up their lives to keep the darkness away. Sometimes while doing this, they make the ultimate sacrifice. These people are sisters, brothers, mothers, fathers, wives, and husbands to many people. With their sacrifice, a gap is left, and when it is done, mothers and wives are left as widows, and children are left as orphans. All over the world, men are often the breadwinners of families, and when they are not a part of the family, poverty creeps in and takes a toll on the family.
When a parent or spouse is lost to the family, it is the community’s responsibility to take care of the family after them. Hargrave Ministries has helped support the IDF Widows and Orphans Organization since its inception. The charity is legally registered under Charity No.580202166. Established in 1991, the Organization was the first in Israel to officially and entirely care for the widows and orphans of Israel’s armed services. The Organization meets to the needs of widows and orphans of people in the Israel Defenses and Security Personnel. This was one great way of honoring the lives and memories of the heroes who gave up their lives to keep the country safe.
Supporting the work of the IDF Widows and Orphans
When people are drafted to defend the country as part of the military, it is a tough choice for them to leave their comfort and venture into the uncertain. However, people rise above themselves and are selfless in the quest to protect millions of others and maintain peace in other countries. They put their lives on the frontline, taking the risk of injury and death to defend people and keep evil and malice away from many people.
In some countries where the evil of war and conflict is rampant, soldiers ensure that children can still enjoy their innocence and play along even in the thick of things. Thanks to their sacrifice, people can run their businesses; they can spend time with their families and enjoy being social with friends because they are protected.
IDF widows and orphans has prided itself in providing all types of support, including financial, emotional, psychological, and more. While the charity cannot compensate for a person’s presence, it does its best to make the orphans and widows feel less alone and loved. A healthy psychological environment and a little financial support can go a long way in getting the family back on its feet. The family can always rest assured there is a helping hand present to pick them up when they fall.
In 2020, the world was brought to its knees as it battled a pandemic. As many people lost their jobs and others lost their lives, widows and orphans became more in dire need than ever before. IDF widows and orphans built a hospital and other resources to help IDF widows and orphans. Israel as a community was called to action to support patriotism by coming through for them. The Hargrave Ministries took it upon themselves to raise money for them through their website, social media, and funding drives.
The Hargrave Ministries is the only bible teaching ministry with Jewish roots that advocates and spreads spiritual growth and endurance among Christians worldwide. With thousands of Christians under their guide worldwide, the church leveraged their numbers to help and donate to the IDF widows and orphans. From posts on their social media platforms to directly linking donations on their site, the ministry has put in a lot of effort to drive up donations for widows and orphans.
The role of Gary Hargrave in this charity
Hargrave Ministries has been at the forefront of helping the world through ministry and acts of charity. The Israeli Defense Forces are one of the most diverse on earth. The country is also the only one that helps deaf and hard-hearing folk to join the defense forces. As Christ taught us to be one in the Spirit, the IDF has more than showed there is a possibility that we can be together as one, working for a common cause. We can offer honor to this unity and its cause to ensure that their legacies do not fade. We ensure that their widows and orphans do not sleep hungry or go without decent clothing. We help to ensure that their children continue with their studies. Hargrave Ministries has worked to ensure that through their ministries, the brave souls are honored in the most dignified way possible.
Managing a charity in a pandemic
Since they could not meet in person, IDF widows and orphans sent out the equipment required for the kids’ activities in their homes. The sense of community and love was not lost even during the most challenging times. Some of the orphans had counseling sessions, so the program moved them online to ensure psychological help was always available. In 2020 alone, the program facilitated more than 1400 sessions between the orphans and their counselors and mentors.
Through the support of people and organizations like the Hargrave Ministries, people can enable outreach activities such as the 1000 widows who received aid last year. Apart from creating an environment where the widows and orphans can receive help from them, IDF widows and orphans has also enabled them to know each other and live as a community. Some of their online lectures help them cover and understand the grief process and other related self-care issues.
IDF widows and orphans has a project called ‘Tell a Story’ for the people who have doubts about donating or other widows and orphans worldwide. Through the platform, orphans and widows who have benefited from the platform and the experience of living without a core figure in their lives tell their life stories and the importance of receiving help. Thanks to efforts from supporters such as Gary Hargrave, the project is a beacon of hope for widows and orphans in Africa and the world.

'We need people to speak out about it'
Sunday 04 August 2002
The comedian Jo Brand has joined the growing list of supporters for The Independent on Sunday's Mental Health campaign. Brand, a former psychiatric nurse at Maudsley hospital in London, believes that there is huge ignorance about the subject.
"People who I'd consider to be pretty intelligent don't seem to know the difference between mental illness and different forms of educational disability," she said. "If people that have been to university don't know, how we expect anyone who hasn't had a brilliant education to tell the difference I don't know really."
Brand included many of her fellow comics in the "ignorant" category. "You hear so many 'I'm a schizophrenic and so am I' jokes which people think are quite funny. But because they're based on such a poor knowledge of what schizophrenia is about they're just ridiculous."
The comic called on the rest of the British media to take up mental health issues responsibly. "The press could do a lot more – the tabloids in particular tend to pick photos of people with mental illness looking like wild animals. It's like any sort of prejudice – you have to keep chipping away at it and people who have experience of it have to speak out about it and not be ashamed."
Michael Kennedy, a leading mental health lawyer at Switalki's solicitors, also lent his support and attacked the Government for "focusing on risk issues and proposing preventative detention for people with severe personality disorders". He said more attention should be focused on prisoners with mental health problems.

Having learned a great deal more about erectile dysfunction including its risk factors and causes, you should be equipped to assess your own erectile function. If you have experienced erectile issues or you have some of the risk factors mentioned above, it may be worth making a trip to your doctor’s office. If you choose to seek help, give your doctor as much information as you can about your symptoms including their frequency and severity as well as the onset. With your doctor’s help, you can determine the best course of treatment to restore sexual function.
In rare cases, the drug Viagra ® can cause blue-green shading to vision that lasts for a short time. In rare cases, the drug Cialis® can cause or increase back pain or aching muscles in the back. In most cases, the side effects are linked to PDE5 inhibitor effects on other tissues in the body, meaning they are working to increase blood flow to your penis and at the same time impacting other vascular tissues in your body. These are not ‘allergic reactions'.

jEdit stores settings, macros, and plugins as files inside the settings directory. In most cases, editing these files by hand is not necessary, since graphical tools and editor commands can do the job. However, being familiar with the structure of the settings directory still comes in handy in certain situations, for example when you want to copy jEdit settings between computers.
The location of the settings directory is system-specific; it is printed to the activity log (Utilities>Troubleshooting>Activity Log). For example:
[message] jEdit: Settings directory is /home/slava/.jedit
Specifying the -settings switch on the command line instructs jEdit to store settings in a directory other than the default. For example, the following command will instruct jEdit to store all settings in the jedit subdirectory of the C: drive:
C:\jedit> jedit -settings=C:\jedit
The -nosettings switch will force jEdit to not look for or create a settings directory; default settings will be used instead.
jEdit creates the following files and directories inside the settings directory; plugins may add more:
abbrevs - a plain text file which stores all defined abbreviations. See the section called “Abbreviations”.
activity.log - a plain text file which contains the full activity log. See Appendix B, The Activity Log.
history - a plain text file which stores history lists, used by history text fields and the Edit>Paste Previous command. See the section called “Transferring Text” and Appendix C, History Text Fields.
jars - this directory contains plugins. See Chapter 9, Installing and Using Plugins.
jars-cache - this directory contains plugin cache files which decrease the time to start jEdit. They are automatically updated when plugins are installed or updated.
killring.xml - stores recently deleted text. See the section called “Transferring Text”.
macros - this directory contains macros. See Chapter 8, Using Macros.
modes - this directory contains custom edit modes. See Part II, “Writing Edit Modes”.
perspective.xml - an XML file that stores the list of open buffers and views used to maintain editor state between sessions.
PluginManager.download - this directory is usually empty. It only contains files while the plugin manager is downloading a plugin. For information about the plugin manager, see Chapter 9, Installing and Using Plugins.
printspec - a binary file that stores printing settings when running under Java 2 version 1.4.
properties - a plain text file that stores the majority of jEdit's settings.
recent.xml - an XML file which stores the list of recently opened files. jEdit remembers the caret position and character encoding of each recent file, and automatically restores those values when one of the files is opened.
registers.xml - an XML file that stores register contents. See the section called “General Register Commands” for more information about registers.
server - a plain text file that only exists while jEdit is running. The edit server's port number and authorization key is stored here. See Chapter 2, Starting jEdit.
settings-backup - this directory contains numbered backups of all automatically-written settings files.


The Pyjama Girl Case
directed by Flavio Mogherini
starring Ray Milland, Dalila Di Lazzaro, Mel Ferrer, Howard Ross
Although a genre piece, The Pyjama Girl Case manages to be an oddly affecting and effective piece ofÂ EurotrashÂ cinema. The Pyjama Girl Case is an unorthodox entry in the 1970s cycle of Italian giallo films. First is that it is set in Australia, it is also at least nominally based on a true story, and lastly the story is less of a thriller that a reflective piece of genuine sadness and tragedy. Flavio Mogherini’s film may not be for all tastes, but is proof that a unique vision canÂ come out of even the most hackneyed genres. â€¨ The film opens with a group of dirt bikers discovering the corpse of an unknown young woman who was raped, murdered, and set on fire in a pile of derelict cars on the beach. The homicide case and the film, both hinge on discovering the identity of the victim in order to solve the case. â€¨ Ray Milland is doing some serious slumming in Australia playing Inspector Timpson, a grumpy, retired police detective aiding the investigation. Typical of the genre much of the movie has a gritty, somewhat sleazy feel to it with oddities populating the film, including fat middle-age homosexuals, an angry dwarf, and a peeping tom are all paraded about as Ray Milland breaks the fourth wall with smirks, rolled eyeballs and even a scene where the Oscar winner offers up the classic jerk-off gesture. There is also plenty of requisite nudity and even the ever-popular gauzy flashbacks to lesbian experimentation, but as the film grinds on there is much more here than a standard exploitation pic. The film just isn’t as flashy or as bizarre or violent as you might expect fromÂ giallo. The film is still weird, engaging, and ultimately profoundly sad. â€¨
The most memorable centerpiece of the film is the bizarre display of the nude murder victim’s body preserved and displayed in public in hopes of someone recognizing her. Yes, that’s right a murder victim is floated in formaldehyde in a glass box and there is a long montage of people passing by and gawking at her. The film takes its name and inspiration from an actual Australian murder case.Â Murder victim Linda Agostini was actually put on display in a similar manner in the 1930s. The case was consideredÂ solved butÂ is still controversial with people questioning the police handling and closure of the case with the identity of theÂ PyjamaÂ Girl still being debated â€¨ The old school detective Timpson is working with, and opposed to,Â young inexperienced, andÂ cockyÂ Inspector Ramsey, who closes the case on the murder, but theÂ old flatfoot isn’t so sure and keeps following his instincts. There is a seemingly unconnected secondary plot revolving around waitress Linda (DalilaÂ DiÂ Lazzaro) and her relationships with the men in her life.Â Linda is rapidly losing her agency to the whims of her husband and her two lovers. As the film progresses, you keep expecting her to simply become the next victim and the longer you stay with her story the more invested in her existential crisis.Â â€¨ The two different story lines make for somewhat confusing viewing as it feels like two unrelated movies spliced together, but the story lines do converge and as you realize the plots are converging it becomes horrifying and heartbreaking in equal measure as you realize thatÂ Linda’s storyÂ is the story of the murdered girl that the “A” story has been investigating and you know that the police have the case all wrong.
As bad as you think things are, they’re only going to get far more dire. With no money, Linda decides to prostitute herself to three men in a diner in an utterly disturbing scene. Linda feels that she has been treated like a whore by the men in her life and decides to get paid for it. The scene is played without titillation and is utterly heartbreaking.Â This moment is Linda hitting rock bottom, but she is at least attempting to move on with life and on her own terms, at least until her lover and cuckolded husband catch up. â€¨ Arrow Video serves up TheÂ PyjamaÂ Girl Case with the deluxe treatment, including a 2k original camera negative restoration. A number of interviews and a feature-length commentary from Troy Howarth, author of So Deadly, So Perverse: 50 Years of Italian Giallo Films rounds out the package.Â Â â€¨ Â

I've not had much luck at the local gardening centers with finding potatoes for planting. Luckily the potatoes I had in my pantry had started growing eyes on them.
For years we just cut the eyes off and ate them anyway. I never gave much thought about that being the potato's way of coming back to life. Apparently I missed that science project in school...
So, I did a quick googling of how exactly to go about growing the potato from a sprouting potato.
The first thing you should do (but not necessary) is to cut your potatoes into sections with one eye or sprout per section:
Then, I got my bag of garden soil:
You can choose to mix in some fertilizer if you like. This particular soil had some plant food mixed in already so I didn't bother. I'll just add some fertilizer if it's needed later.
I decided for stability to turn the bag sideways.
I opened the bag along its seam.
I decided to experiment with planting a few further down. My theory is the potatoes will find the sun. If I give them an opening their leaves will sprout from there. If not, oh well! ;)
So I cut a hole big enough to get the potato section into:
Put the potato in and covered lightly with soil:
Then cut a slit above and perpendicular to the first to allow the leaves to come through:
I planted 2 more this way, even with the first. The rest I planted along the top:
Then I sat my potato bag with my tomato "bag" planters:
This is a GREAT and frugal way to have a container garden when you don't have the room or the budget. Let me know if you decide to try it!!

Sebo Automatic X4 (White)

SEBO AUTOMATIC X4 and X4 Boost
The AUTOMATIC X is the world’s most technically advanced and uniquely easy-to-use vacuum cleaner! The 12-inch X4 features a truly automatic height adjustment, using an electronic controller that measures the resistance of the spinning brush roller against the floor to signal up or down adjustments, which ensures optimal performance on both carpets and hard floors. The user is also alerted to clogs, a worn brush, or a full bag, and the vacuum automatically shuts off when brush obstructions occur to protect the motor and belts from damage. The X also has an instant-use cleaning wand and suction hose, a lifetime belt warranty, tool-free brush roller removal, a 40-foot power cord, and three on-board attachments.
The X4 Boost model offers a choice between two modes of automatic brush agitation! The default setting is perfect for most flooring types, but by activating the Boost Button, greater resistance against the spinning brush roller is allowed before height adjustments are made, which causes more aggressive brush action.
- Designed and Manufactured in Germany
- The World’s Best Pet Vacuums
- Tightly Sealed Filtration
- Reliable, Commercial-grade Components
- Rubber Wheels and Bumpers Protect Homes
- High-tech Brush Roller Technology
- Changing Bags is Easy and Clean
- Save Money! SEBO Vacuums Last for Years
- Free Warranty Coverage
STANDARD FEATURES OF ALL SEBO VACUUMS
Designed and Manufactured in Germany – Legendary quality, reliability and performance make SEBO vacuums the choice of cleaning professionals throughout the world.
The World’s Best Pet Vacuums – Because of superior power-head technology, SEBO vacuums are the world’s best for pet hair removal!
Tightly Sealed Hospital-grade Filtration – Dirty air, which flows through a vacuum, can only be filtered completely if it does not escape into the room through seams or seals in the machine. This is why all SEBO vacuums have tight seals throughout.
Many vacuum companies with high-filtration claims are actually quoting specifications made by the manufacturer of the filter material, as measured in the laboratory, not the filtration effectiveness of the vacuum itself while operating. Whether or not dirty air can escape through leaks in the body of the machine is not considered. The filtration effectiveness of SEBO vacuums is tested while they operate.
Reliable, Commercial-grade Components – All SEBO vacuums are constructed with thick, reinforced ABS plastic, aluminum and metal parts, steel axles and bearings and high-end, quality motors. Therefore, SEBO users own reliable, long-lasting vacuum cleaners. Competing vacuums are made with thin, flimsy, inexpensive plastic materials, none of which are reinforced, and typically have a useful lifespan of one or two years (i.e., disposable vacuums).
Rubber Wheels and Bumpers Protect Homes – Smooth-gliding rubber wheels protect hard floors and provide exceptional maneuverability. In addition, the bumpers that surround the power heads and the soft AIRBELT bumpers that surround SEBO’s canisters protect furniture, walls and vacuum housings from incurring scuffs and scratches during use.
High-tech Brush Roller Technology – SEBO’s brush rollers are uniquely designed to funnel hair and debris into the power heads’ airflow channel, which improves vacuum cleaning performance on all flooring surfaces.
Changing Bags is Easy and Clean – SEBO filter bags can be changed in just a few seconds, and a cap keeps dust sealed inside during removal and disposal. Save Money! SEBO Vacuums Last for Years! – If properly maintained, SEBO vacuums save ordinary residential users hundreds of dollars by providing excellent performance for ten to fifteen years or more, and their deep-cleaning power-brush technology extends the life of carpets. Typical vacuums perform poorly, even when new, and usually do not last beyond two years. So six or seven “disposable vacuums” must be purchased during the average life expectancy of just one SEBO machine.
Free Warranty – All SEBO models include a FREE seven-year warranty on the motor, and a five-year warranty on non-wear parts and labor charges. The AUTOMATIC X models include a lifetime warranty on the belts.


Integrating ITC to enhance learning outcomes
This session, TYO has been focusing on greater inclusion of technology into TYO programming. Thanks to the generous support of the Abdul Hameed Shoman Foundation (AHSF), we have been able to scale-up technology integration across all TYO programs, as AHSF's support has enabled us to build a brand-new computer lab for our women, youth, and intern classes, leaving two computer labs dedicated to our Core Child classes. As a result, all schedules and lesson plans have been redesigned to incorporate IT into daily programming at TYO.
According to a study by the Alliance for Childhood, for children over 3, 'some exposure to thoughtfully constructed media content can promote pro-social behaviors and contribute to learning, especially when a caring adult is actively involved.' The key to healthy integration of technology is creating a highly structured environment with close adult supervision to ensure children are interacting only with media elements suited to their age and development stage. Each day of the 12 week Core Child program, children will be exposed to interactive learning games, carefully selected to hone their small motor skills, logic and reasoning skills, and spatial awareness skills. Learning games from sources such as PBS Kids, National Geographic, and Sesame Street provide children with colorful and engaging games from trusted content providers.
Additionally, while much research is still in its infancy stage, studies indicate that iPads and other tablet devises can be wonderful resources for children (and adults) with learning or behavioral disabilities. At TYO, many of the children in our Core Child program show signs of communication impairments- particularly in verbal access to words, sentences, and conversation. Such impairments are often the result of early exposure to trauma and/or a neglectful home environment, and as such TYO aims to provide the most supportive and nurturing setting possible. The inclusion of tablet devices while working with such special needs children has been really beneficial in promoting engagement and breaking down learning activities into tightly focused steps. Engagement is the key and with children or adults with short attention spans, the catalyst can be technology as it that invites and promotes participation and learning.
For older TYO beneficiaries, added time in the computer lab has proven equally beneficial. TYO's FWEME participants recently completed an intensive three week IT and English course. Women in the FWEME program have been very interested to pursue digital marketing options for their burgeoning businesses. Many of the women created LinkedIn accounts and Facebook business accounts to expand their online networks and increase local brand recognition. The World Bank reports, 'The high number of underemployed and unemployed skilled women in cities outside Ramallah offers a valuable source of labor and Palestinian internet access is competitive compared to other countries in the region.' As such, TYO strives to provide these women with all of the tools possible to help support and strengthen their businesses.
We've been excited to share these state-of-the-art tools with our beneficiaries at TYO and look forward to sharing continued stories of their success.

text: The USS New Haven was laid down as a Cleveland-class light cruiser but was subsequently converted into an Independence-class light aircraft carrier by the New York Shipbuilding Corporation in 1941 with the name of the USS Belleau Wood. The new name of the ship comes from the Battle of Belleau Wood that took place in France in 1918. Having served during World War II, the ship earned 12 battle stars, as well as the Presidential Unit Citation for the extraordinary activity of its crew. However, in addition to the dangers of the armed conflict, there was another one that was lurking aboard the USS Belleau Woods: asbestos. Exposure to asbestos can lead to the development of serious diseases within 2 to 5 decades, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. For this reason, everyone who served on this ship should keep a close eye on their health, as they are at high risk of coming to struggle with a terrible disease. In 1960, the USS Belleau Wood was sold for scrapping.

It is that time of year again. Momentum is building and the art world is revving its engines in preparation for the onslaught of the numerous art fairs, biennales, prizes and blockbuster shows scheduled for the coming months. It is an exciting time and one that The Rise Art Roaming Eye will be following closely.
The seasonal excitement kicked off in London last week with the announcement of the four nominees for the now infamous Turner Prize. For a succinct overview, art critic Adrian Searle gives a brief, if somewhat biased, account of these artists' work on his highly readable Guardian blog. Essentially, the list appears a serious and well considered snapshot of four artists who have been steadily developing their practice and are well respected by their peers. Martin Boyce represented Scotland at the last Venice Biennale and is already held in the Tate's collection; Karla Black's work is currently exhibited in a group show at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park; George Shaw is presently the subject of a solo exhibition at the BALTIC in Newcastle and Hillary Lloyd shows with Sadie Coles HQ, an established London based gallery.
This is a funny type of prize often at odds with public sentiment yet can do wonders for the career of the winner. One plausible explanation for this friction may lie in the confusing nomination process. Contrary to popular belief, the winner of this prize is not picked from the Turner Prize exhibition, the show of the artists' work which normally happens at Tate Britain after the nominees have been announced (although is moving to the BALTIC in Newcastle for the first time this year). Rather, the winner is selected from the exhibition which secured his or her nomination: a display or presentation of the artist's work which occurred in the 12 months prior to nomination, anywhere in the world. Also, and somewhat oddly, the wider press do not report on this aspect of the prize and so even finding out which exhibitions were worthy of this accolade can prove tiresome. Fear not though, as you might have already seen, we have linked the selected exhibitions to each of the artist's names above, to save your time!
On a more sombre note, this week marks the opening of Chinese artist Ai Weiwei's first solo exhibition at Lisson Gallery, one of the foremost contemporary commercial galleries in the world. This exhibition comes at a particularly poignant moment as Ai Weiwei is currently missing, having been detained by the Chinese Authorities on 3 April this year as he was about to board a flight from Beijing to Hong Kong. Not a word has been heard from him since and no charge has been brought against him. Lisson Gallery director Greg Hilty has chosen to continue with the exhibition in the artists absence in order to raise awareness for Ai Weiweis plight. The private view will take place tonight, Thursday 12th of May, with the exhibition on show until the 16th of July.

The third day of our 3-day Camel Trek came too fast. We loved our first and second days in the Thar Desert, and this last day was equally a blast. Throughout the day, we explored Khaba Fort, passed by drought-impacted fields, and I led my own camel!
Bruno and I slowly woke up on that third morning in the desert, as the morning temperatures started to increase around the Khaba sand dunes. We shed a few blankets and headed for our morning chai while we enjoyed the views of the Khaba dunes.
Our last morning breakfast lasted longer than the previous ones, a sign we did not want to leave the arid environment. But Punja had the camels ready in no time, and we reluctantly left. Happy to be back on the camels again – though my bottom and tights cringed a bit. Sad to leave paradise.
We stopped mid-morning at the Khaba Fort, an impressive 13th- century citadel from the Paliwal Brahmins, standing on a rocky top and overlooking an open valley. Right beneath the fort stood the remnants of Kuldhara, an old village that was deserted in the late 1800s for reasons unknown. Some speculated it was because of the drought. Other talked about the atrocities and wedding demands of a local diwan. In any case, the 80 families that lived there packed and left almost overnight.
Today the fort and village are mostly in ruins, but the fort is being renovated. Regardless of the state of the monuments, this is a large complex that is worth checking, wandering through the ancient streets and picturing the past life of its inhabitants.
The fort displays a few of its past glory, with a few statues of musicians, pots, and other centuries-old artifacts. A rare chance to glance into the past…
As we left Khaba Fort, we passed by old tombs, many centuries old. These belong to the Paliwal Brahmins who once inhabited the fort and managed the whole region.
Drought & Dry Fields
Our final day stretched through the lunar scenery beyond the fort, but as we headed towards the end of our 3-day loop, signs of civilizations appeared here and there. A little house. A well. Tire tracks on the dirt roads. A village. Plowed fields. Such a field was our rest stop for our lunch. I helped Punja with the preparation, cutting produce and peeling garlic, continuing what had been my duty since the first meal.
We enjoyed a last lunch in the desert. Settled under the shades of a few trees, Punja regaled us once again with a great lunch. We especially enjoyed the potato chips made desert-style! Just the three of us, and the three camels, the peaceful setting lasted a little while as we knew it was our last in the Thar Desert.
Bruno was not the only one relaxing under the shade, while Laloo and Papoo both chilled and munched as well. Lunch break for everyone!
Herding in the Thar Desert
We questioned Punja about the area, which seemed to be ready for farming. Indeed it turned out that a little rain a few months back in early November motivated the farmers to plow and seed their fields, only for the rain to stop within a few days, and never returning since then. It was saddening to see the dry, dead fields, a reminder of how crucial access to water was. The villagers had little resources aside, and it was a definite blow to lose their harvests.
The only other income and sustenance were herding, and a herder with his herd of goats grazing nearby was a reminder of this. The goats came to check on our bags, smelling the camels’ feeds, and we had to chase them down before they ripped the packages apart.
Handling My Camel
Our last meal devoured, it was time to pack the camels again. Punja and I went to retrieve Laloo and Papoo and felt like I had done this all my life. I returned with Papoo and managed to get him to lay down by myself. As a thank-you, I scratched behind his ears – he looked surprised and reluctant about this at first, they slowly changed their minds, and I could feel the weight of their heads pushing on my knuckles. Up we went, up the camels went, and off we all went.
The last three hours brought us back to the human world. More villages, a few cars, a paved road, cemented water wells, a couple of fences, and windmills in the distance. We also passed further remnants of Brahmani heritage, with ancient tombs standing high and tall on the edge of nearby cliffs.
Out of nowhere, we noted dust columns were rising in the sky and saw our pickup 4WD heading our way. It was funny to see how accurately the driver found us among the arid desert. Punja had been on the phone a couple of times in the last 30 minutes, so we figured he was giving direction. Bruno and I had a laugh picturing Punja describing the road. “Turn left after the 3rd bush, right over the rocky ridge, and left again after the 3rd camel poop”.
Farewell to our Trekking Companions
Too soon we made our last descent with our camels and grabbed our bags. I scratched Laloo, Papoo, and Big Kona one last time, naively thinking we had bonded in the last three days. Though I would not necessarily miss some of the scents coming out of the gentle beasts, they had been our companions through our desert experience. It felt like saying goodbye to old friends. Even more so when we took our leave from Punja, heartfully thanking him for the fantastic time he made sure we had. The quick return to Jaisalmer left us pensive. While our bodies were back in the busy town, our minds were still in the desert.
This 3-day camel trek was sponsored and in partnership with Trotters Independent Tours & Travels Thank you for the terrific opportunity! Our opinion is our own and is not impacted by this partnership.
Stay tuned for more adventures
from our travel around the world!

The Washington Post routinely explains surprising weather events as caused by “climate change” (formerly known as global warming). “Hot” events like the California wildfires are blamed on climate change. Similarly, “cold” events like Texas’s 2020 winter freeze are blamed on climate change.
But sometimes the cold is just too severe to explain with climate change. Or is it?
The Post reported on Oct 2 that the South Pole just experienced “the most severe cold season on record.”
“The chill was exceptional, even for the coldest location on the planet,” wrote Jason Samenow and Kasha Patel. But they went on to say:
“While impressive and unexpected, scientists characterized this record as a mere blip and curiosity as both Antarctica and the planet continue to rapidly warm amid escalating extreme weather.”
What exactly determines that the coldest temperatures ever recorded are a “mere blip”? Not clear.
Here are more details:
“The average temperature at the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station between April and September, a frigid minus-78 degrees (minus-61 Celsius), was the coldest on record, dating back to 1957. This was 4.5 degrees lower than the most recent 30-year average at this remote station, which is operated by United States Antarctic Program and administered by the National Science Foundation.”

Rebels don’t do Resolutions…The team reflect on 2015 and share their top tips for the New Year
We spoke to the team at Rebel Kitchen to find out what their best ‘resolution’ tips were. And guess what? None of these involved giving something up.
Here’s what they reflected on from 2015 and are committed to continuing in 2016.
“Listen to your heart” – Rebel Ben (Co-founder)
A big theme for me last year was to really focus on listening to my heart. It’s easy to get caught up listening to all the noise that’s around us. More often than not, that noise is other people’s projections. Follow your heart, not your mind. The mind is just what you’ve learnt from other people throughout life, which influences your decisions (not always in the way that’s right for you). We forget that we all carry within us an amazing natural instinct to help steer us.
There is a saying “Listen to your heart because even though it’s on your left side, it’s always right”
“Step away from social and read more” – Rebel Adam
Last year the big one for me was about making more time to read, and stepping away from the screen more. Take a break from social media. Your phone. The computer. Read 10 pages of a decent book a day (non-fiction or fiction) instead to broaden your perspective on things. It doesn’t add hours to your day. And it’s so small that it can be incorporated into your current lifestyle, particularly if you commute. Oh, and drink more water! An oldie but a goodie. I’ve made drinking 3 litres part of my daily routine.
“Listen to your body – one size doesn’t fit all” – Rebel Charly
Last year I tried veganism for a few months but I really struggled. I wasn’t feeling the benefits and got pretty downbeat about it. Then I did a bit more research into it and discovered I was allergic to lots of vegan friendly food. The important thing for me was learning how everyone’s needs are unique (including my own) and how you need to listen to your body – one size doesn’t fit all. I’ve found ways to lead a healthy lifestyle without giving myself a hard time.
“Be kindest to yourself first. The rest will follow” – Rebel Tamara (Co-founder)
For me last year was all about learning to be kinder to myself. We’re great at being hard on ourselves, battling over why we weren’t better, faster, stronger, brighter, prettier at one thing or another… The truth is, we’re all perfect just as we are. What we need to work on is loving ourselves and our imperfections a bit more! After all, what is perfection? Self-love breeds greater love and compassion all round; to yourself, and to others. So be kindest to yourself first. The rest will follow.
“Do something you love – and be loud about it” – Rebel Ruth
Something I’ve learnt from last year is to do something you love and be loud about it. Passion always resonates with people. I think when you make a decision to do something that means something to you, you’ve just got to own that choice. Fearlessly! I went vegan and became a cheerleader. People question them both all the time, but it’s the passion I have that make others respect it. This attitude has given me much more confidence. I think it would do the same for others, too.
“Not everything is personal” – Rebel Rachel
Last year, more than ever, I learnt to take a step back from my relationship with my inbox and see that not everything is personal.
As Atticus Finch very wisely said in To Kill a Mocking Bird: “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view … until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.”
So climb into someone else’s skin and realise that their late (or short) email reply isn’t because they dislike you or think your questions are silly. It’s because they have a million and one other things to do and will get to you when they can. Drink green tea whilst you wait. This mindset has helped to relieve a lot of unnecessary stress.

Professor Darashaw Nosherwan Wadia, the father of Indian geology, was born on October 23, 1883, at Surat, Gujarat in a family engaged in shipbuilding, Darashaw was highly inclined towards drawing. After completing his primary education in Surat, he did his graduation and post-graduation in biology and geology. It was a time when geology and geological survey had not yet developed in India. It was through reading that Darashaw developed an interest in geology and through self-study and introspection, he moved forward in this direction.
Besides, the Central Asian desert region, the entire stretch from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, Assam to Karachi and Baluchistan, including lakes and oceans was his area of study. His views about the birth of the desert regions received tremendous response from all over the world. According to him, one million years ago, the Ice Age existed and the icy cold rivers in the North Pole and the snow-covered areas were the result of that age.
In his book Structure of Himalayas, he has discussed elaborately the geological formation and internal edifice of the Himalayas. His information on the spread of Himalayas from Assam to Kashmir and its range of peaks is indeed a revelation. According to him, the Hindu Kush with its unique mountain range has no relation to the Himalayas.
Among his writings, Geology of Nanga Parbat and Gilgit District and The Geology of India and Burma, give wonderful information on the Himalayas. Dr Darashaw was also a successful scientific authority on fossils. His important fossil discoveries include huge animals like elephants besides skull pieces of Stygordon ganesha.
Dr Darashaw was instrumental in organising the 22nd Conference of the International Geological Congress in New Delhi, the first ever held in India.
In 1957, Darashaw was elected Fellow of the Royal Society of London. He was the first Indian geological scientist to receive this honour. He was twice elected president of the Indian Science Congress. The prestigious Meghnad Saha Medal was awarded to him by the National Science Academy.
It was on June 15, 1969, that this great scientist died at the age of 86.
The Government of India conferred on him the Padma Bhushan. On October 23, 1984 the Post and Telegraph Department of the Government of India issued a stamp in honour of Dr D.N. Wadia.

The DSA’s highest priority in the coming weeks is pushing for the PRO (Protecting the Right to Organize) Act, fixing U.S. law so that workers and unions can build the power to that leads to a Green New Deal and a just economy. Multiple religious groups have enthusiastically lined up alongside DSA and unions in this cause. Several organizations from different faith traditions last month co-authored a letter to members of Congress urging swift passage of the law ensuring workers’ rights to organize into unions and collectively bargain for fair pay and working conditions.
One of those religious groups, NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice, said, “Catholic Social Justice teaches us that we must invest in the value of human labor, which helps maintain the fabric of our society. With the current labor system structured to favor big businesses and corporations over worker-led unions, the PRO Act levels the playing field by making union organizing less difficult.”
Rabbi Michael Feinberg, executive director of the Greater New York Labor-Religion Coalition and an activist in DSA’s Religion and Socialism Working Group who was recently the subject of a profile in Commonweal magazine, agrees that supporting the PRO Act is a moral imperative. “The right to form a union is not only a basic democratic right, it is one enshrined in religious ethics and law, certainly one found in Jewish rabbinic tradition,” he says. “It is the recognition that in unionizing workers can gain collective power to level the field with employers and owners--this is critical in a time of such obscene wealth inequality.”
The PRO Act addresses that inequality by breaking down some of the legal barriers that have blocked working people from coming together to demand fair wages and treatment. Before the Covid pandemic, U.S. unemployment rates were low and workers very much in demand, especially in globalization-proof roles like home health care and food service. Workers overall were also far more productive and better-educated than at any time in history. Yet wages were not keeping pace, with over 40% of U.S. workers struggling in low wage jobs.
Why didn’t increasing demand and more productivity lead to higher wages? Because unions have lost their power to increase the pay of their members and raise the wage floor for other workers, say experts like Professor Colin Gordon, a University of Iowa history professor. “Shared prosperity, including the expectation of wage gains in the long recovery from the Great Recession, rests on policies and institutions that sustain the bargaining power of workers,” he wrote in Dissent magazine. Gordon says unions serve as a “countervailing force” to corporate and political resistance to raise wages.
But corporate-friendly U.S. law has been blocking unions from assuming that role. Since the National Labor Relations Act was adopted in 1935, its impact has been steadily eroded by amendments and practices that undercut workers’ rights to form unions. The results are easy to quantify: while two of every three Americans support unions and half of them would join a union if they had a chance, only 15% of American workers were union members in 2020.
“Keep Firing Until the Union Organizing Stops”
This weakness of the current U.S. labor movement is no accident: our nation’s labor laws give near-carte blanche to corporations trying to sabotage workers’ efforts to come together in a union. For example, if an employer violates the law, workers can file an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board. But, remarkably, the NLRB is not empowered to assess any penalties. The stiffest sanction an employer risks is having to reinstate a fired worker and reimburse for back pay, and/or post some informational signage about labor rights.
“It just like if I were to break into your house and take your TV, and the worst thing that could happen to me is that I would have to put the TV back—after I used it for awhile,” says Gordon Lafer, a University of Oregon economist. So it is no surprise that there is a documented, widespread record of companies breaking the law to block union organizing, including firing workers who support a union.
Labor lawyer Thomas Geoghegan assesses the state of the current law this way: “Union busting now is almost a science. And the science is a pretty simple one: you go out and fire people. And keep firing until the organizing stops,” Geoghan says. “An employer who didn’t break the law would have to be what economists call an ‘irrational firm.’” Not only does current labor law allow corporations to crush union campaigns, it provides no protection at all for the increasing number of workers in the “gig economy” who are classified as independent contractors, nor to undocumented immigrant workers.
The PRO Act, which passed the U.S. House of Representatives and has the support of President Biden, would go a long way toward fixing this. It would institute fines for companies violating labor rights of its workers, expand the rights of contractors and immigrant workers, and force more honest bargaining by employers. In a critical boon to worker solidarity, the PRO Act would also allow workers to support their sisters and brothers in different companies and sectors who are struggling for fair treatment. So-called “secondary boycotts” are prohibited under current law, but they are a powerful tool that should be available to build worker power. “You take away the prohibition on secondary boycotts, and I’ll organize 30,000 hotel workers in a year,” one union organizer says.
Beyond simply increasing the number of unionized workers, religious groups insist that the PRO Act changes are necessary to respect workers’ most fundamental human rights. The Catholic Labor Network’s statement in support of the PRO Act quotes several Papal encyclicals on the importance of unions, including Pope Francis’ call for worker solidarity. “America’s labor laws are arguably the weakest in the developed world, and this constitutes an open wound to social solidarity. It’s time to begin fixing that, starting with passage of the PRO Act.”
Rabbi Feinberg agrees. “The PRO Act is essential in strengthening workers' basic right to organize: as such it is a covenant, a sacred trust among workers to improve their lives and working conditions. It deserves the support of all people of faith.”

Slipgate Ironworks is a game development studio behind popular titles like Ghostrunner and other notable works. The alluring team of developers has crafted both Indie and AAA games in the past and is currently working on a plethora of titles. The studio is also credited for birthing the first modern retro shooter dubbed Rise of the Triad.
The studio has seemingly been looking to expand its arsenal, and it has acquired a notable studio to help develop an anticipated title. Slipgate Ironworks has reportedly obtained the Danish studio, ALL CAPS. It is a small team of Indie developers behind 3D Realms’ ongoing project, Core Decay.
Slipgate Ironworks CEO Frederik Schreiber revealed the glad tidings on LinkedIn and quoted that the complete ALL CAPS team is now engaged under his conglomerate.
- Slipgate Ironworks is a part of Embracer Group’s Saber Interactive and the developers behind notable games like Ion Fury and Rad Rogers. ALL CAPS is a small yet talented bunch of Danish Indie developers banded together to create lasting experiences.
- Slipgate has recently acquired the indie developers at ALL CAPS crafting 3D Realms’ Core Decay.
- The team behind Ghostrunner was seemingly really pleased with the performance of the Indie game studio, and the company’s CEO came forward on LinkedIn to announce the acquisition.
- The deal will see the whole ALL CAPS team employed under the studio to ensure that Core Decay can be developed more smoothly.
The acquisition transpired after the CEO of Slipgate Ironworks was impressed by the performance of ALL CAPS. Earlier this year, both studios collaborated on the 3D Realms game, Core Decay. After the successful collaboration, the studio has taken over a hundred percent of the staff at the small Indie studio.
Congratulations to @SlipgateIron on their 'acquhire' of fellow #dkgame studio @ALLCAPSgames – hirering the whole of the team – including founders – to continue work on @3DRealms title 'Core Decay'. https://t.co/XkQUjURzbw
— Interactive Denmark (@InteractiveDK) January 2, 2023
The CEO of Slipgate Ironworks, Frederik Schreiber, commented on the successful deal and showed great enthusiasm to work with the team at ALL CAPS.
Earlier this year, the opportunity arose and we have been happy to have ALL CAPS in the house. We therefore chose to give them an offer to become a regular part of Slipgate. I am proud, happy and humbled that Brian and the rest of the ALL CAPS team accepted, and look forward to welcoming them all in the new year!” wrote Slipgate Ironworks’ CEO.
ALL CAPS was also incredibly pleased with Slipgate Ironworks acquiring the whole team. The ALL CAPS director, Brian Martin Nielsen, envisions a great future under the talented Slipgate company. The director had a few comments to add of his own.
We’re super excited about this new chapter! ALL CAPS was started almost 10 years ago and we have always had a great desire to try our hand at the PC and console market, so when we got the opportunity to collaborate with Frederik and 3D Realms earlier this year, we immediately jumped at the chance and we have been extremely happy with the collaboration and the way we were received.
Becoming a part of Slipgate and 3D Realms feels natural and super good. To put it mildly, we are excited about the new year and what the future holds together,” noted the ALL CAPS director.
The merging of both talented studios will see a great boost in the development of the upcoming Core Decay, and we can envision the title crossing our expectations.
If you are unfamiliar, Core Decay is an old-school FPS shooter that adopts the elements of Sci-Fi to create a fantastic Immersive Simulator. The single-player shooter does not have a release date yet, but we reckon the acquisition will speed things up soon.
What are your thoughts about Slipgate Ironworks acquiring the danish studio developing Core Decay, ALL CAPS? Do you think the development of the game will see a positive effect because of the deal? Do let us know your opinions in the comments below.

Warner Bros. completes Eyeworks deal
Warner Bros. has completed its multimillion dollar takeover of Netherlands-based production group Eyeworks.
The US studio has obtained the necessary regulatory approvals and now owns the Eyeworks international business. That business spans 15 international territories, excluding the US, which was not part of the deal.
Warner Bros. said the acquisition was a landmark for its TV division, which is helmed by executive VP Ronald Goes.
He said: “This is an exciting day for Warner Bros. International Television Production, as we grow our on-the-ground production operations by 13 territories. We’ve long admired the way that Eyeworks has been built into a global player in TV production, and we’re proud that today it becomes part of the Warner Bros. family.”
The Eyeworks deal is the biggest TV acquisition completed by Warner Bros., eclipsing deals for UK-based Shed Media in 2010 and Netherlands-based BlazHoffski a year later.
Warner Bros. had long been linked to a move for Endemol before news that the Studio was interested in Eyeworks broke in January.
In April, Eyeworks has posted strong full-year financial results, with revenue up 9% year-on-year to €274 million (US$377.9 million). The deal is understood to be worth about €200 million.
Eyeworks founder Reinout Oerlemans is exiting the company as a result and had planned to run the Eyeworks USA from LA, although suffered a heart attack in March from which he is recovering.
Eyeworks was created in 2001 and owns formats including Celebrity Splash and Beat the Blondes.

Choose between government and separatists: Jaitley to Pakistan
In a stern message to Pakistan, Defence Minister Arun Jaitley on Sunday said it was for the neighbouring country to decide whether it wants to talk to the Indian government or the separatists.
Kolkata: In a stern message to Pakistan, Defence Minister Arun Jaitley on Sunday said it was for the neighbouring country to decide whether it wants to talk to the Indian government or the separatists.
"After coming to power, we took a decision to call all our neighbours to the swearing-in ceremony. We also decided that there will be Foreign Secretary-level talks. But as we had stated earlier terrorism and talks can't go hand in hand," Jaitley said at a gathering of BJP leaders and intellectuals here.
"When Pakistan started showing its true colours. We had shown the guts to take a hard decision. You have to decide whether you want to talk to the separatists or with the Indian government. What kind of relation do you want? If you want to talk to separatists, then you can do that first. In order to take such a decision you ought to have the strength," Jaitley said.
India recently called off talks between the foreign secretaries of the two countries scheduled for August 25, telling Pakistan bluntly to choose between an Indo-Pak dialogue or hobnobbing with the separatists, after objecting to Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit's consultation with separatist Hurriyat leaders.
