BIC GENEVA — In an open letter released yesterday, 25 prominent intellectuals and experts in human rights law called on Mohammad Javad Larijani, Head of the High Council for Human Rights in Iran, to acknowledge the long-standing state-sponsored persecution of Baha’is in Iran in light of newly-released and abundant evidence. Publication of the letter was first reported earlier today by British newspaper The Times.
The letter follows the recent launch of the Archives of Baha’i Persecution in Iran website, which compiles thousands of official documents, reports, testimonials, and audio-visual materials revealing irrefutable proof of relentless persecution. The new site was created in response to rising interest within and outside Iran to understand the depth and breadth of the persecution of Iran’s Baha’is.
Mr. Larijani has in the past brazenly denied that Baha’is are persecuted in Iran. The signed letter released today cites, as an example, Mr. Larijani’s false statement in October 2014 at Iran’s Universal Periodic Review at the UN, during which he claimed that Iranian Baha’is “are dealt with under the so-called citizenship contract” and “enjoy all the privileges of any citizen of Iran.”
“The records found on the new website, however, present a different story,” states the letter. Drawing on the body of evidence on the site, the signatories call on Mr. Larijani to “ensure justice, to examine the website, and reconsider…previous statements.”
The information available on the archival website covers a wide range of violations by Iranian authorities, documenting systematic discrimination, arrest and imprisonment, execution, economic oppression, denial of education, acts of destruction and violence, and incitement to hatred.
“[H]ow can the prevention of thousands of young people from access to university be considered fair?”
– Open letter signed by 25 experts in human rights law
The letter reminds Mr. Larijani that the Iranian Constitution requires the government and Muslims “to treat the non-Muslim individuals with good conduct, in fairness and Islamic justice, and must respect their human rights.” It pointedly asks, “[H]ow can the prevention of thousands of young people from access to university be considered fair? How can Islamic justice be upheld when efforts are made to exclude an entire community from participating in the economic life of their own country?”
“Such a diverse array of prominent individuals interceding on behalf of the Baha’is in Iran is deeply moving,” commented Diane Ala’i, representative of the Baha’i International Community to the United Nations in Geneva. “We hope others will peruse the contents of this new website and respectfully raise their voices so that the Iranian authorities may give due consideration to the requirements of justice and truthfulness and take appreciable steps to bring the longstanding, systematic persecution of the Baha’is in Iran to an end.”
The open letter’s co-authors come from Brazil, Canada, Germany, India, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Further information can be found at www.bic.org.

To assess the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and frequency of risk screening in volunteer firefighters.
Self-reported data were obtained from 230 volunteer firefighters.
Most participants were either overweight (35%) or obese (41%) and did not know either their blood lipid (86%) or blood pressure (47%) values. Only 35% reported having had a blood lipid assessment in the past year, whereas 39% had never done so; 93% had had their blood pressure assessed in the past year and only 2% had never done so. Thirty percent reported currently using tobacco.
The prevalence of overweight, obesity, and tobacco use among these volunteer firefighters was higher than that found in the general population. Many firefighters were either not aware of their risk factors for CVD or had been inadequately screened for this risk. However, the firefighters who had had recent blood pressure and lipid assessments did not have markedly elevated values. Thus, CVD risk in volunteer firefighters may be reduced through an increased awareness of risk factors via timely risk factor assessment.

For the popping-candy base
- 85g whole hazelnuts
- 40g milk chocolate
- 2 tsp mixed spice
- 100g popping candy (Cottees Strawberry Popping Candy)
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas Mark 4) and roast the hazelnuts for about 10 minutes until lightly coloured. Blend to a paste in a food processor, then set aside.
- Melt the milk chocolate in a bowl over low-simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water). Stir in the mixed spice and popping candy.
- Fold in the hazelnut purée. Place your ring molds (or just use the ring of a springform tin) on a serving dish and gently press in the base mixture to a depth of about 1cm. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, until hard.
For the chocolate mousse
- 350g dark chocolate
- 400ml double cream
- Pinch of salt
- Chop the chocolate into small pieces and place in a metal bowl. Bring 150ml of the cream to the boil in a small saucepan and pour over the chopped chocolate and stir gently until all the chocolate has melted, watching carefully to ensure it doesn’t take on a granular texture.
- Add the salt to taste. Once the chocolate has cooled to room temperature, lightly whip the remaining 250ml cream to soft peaks, but do not overwhip.
- Fold into the chocolate mixture. Pour over the base in the ring mould and place in the fridge to set for 2 hours.
For the chocolate glaze
- 20g dark chocolate, chopped
- 120ml water
- 8 whole coffee beans (or instant coffee granules but adjust to your preference)
- Couple of pinches of salt
- 30g cocoa powder
- 70g unrefined golden caster sugar
- To make the glaze, chop up the chocolate and set aside. Place the water, coffee beans and salt in a pan, whisk in the cocoa powder, then set over a medium heat and simmer for about 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, put the sugar in a small pan and melt over a medium heat. Unrefined sugar will caramelise quickly, so keep an eye on it; when it does, pour over the coffee and cocoa mix — stand back, as it will bubble and spit.
- Beat in the chopped chocolate and, when melted, pass through a fine sieve. When cool, but still liquid, pour over the mousse to your preferred depth and return the cake to the fridge to set.
- To serve: run a hot knife around the inside of the ring before removing the cake. What I did was, I quickly blowtorched the outside of the food ring and gently eased it off the cake. I then used a small offset palette knife (make sure it’s hot) to smooth the outside of the cake.
- When slicing it, make sure the blade of the knife is nice and hot.

Typhoon Hinamor, the most powerful global storm, has affected many countries at once. Cities in eastern China have suspended ferry services and classes. Flights into Japan were canceled on Sunday.
Typhoon Hinamor, the most powerful global storm, has affected many countries at once. Cities in eastern China have suspended ferry services and classes. Flights into Japan were canceled on Sunday. Typhoon Hinmanor, this year’s strongest storm, lashed Taiwan and Korea with strong winds and heavy rain that blew up trees and homes.
50 thousand police officers were deployed for rescue in China
China has stopped ferry services. More than 50,000 police officers have been deployed to rescue and assist people in danger areas. Wenzhou’s Eastern Business Center has ordered the suspension of all classes on Monday.
Winds blowing at the rate of 175 kmph
According to the Hong Kong Observatory, Hinamnor is forecast to move gradually north into the East China Sea with maximum sustained winds of 175 km (109 mph).
Flood likely due to heavy rains
Japan’s southern Okinawa island has been ordered to exit and flights to be cancelled. The storm is expected to bring heavy rain to the Korean peninsula, creating the potential for flooding.
Ships asked to return to ports
China’s National Meteorological Center has issued a yellow thunderstorm warning at 10 am on Sunday. Heavy rain has been warned in northeast Zhejiang, Shanghai and autonomous Taiwan. The ships were asked to return to ports to avoid strong winds. The Meteorological Center has urged people not to gather in large numbers both indoors and outdoors.
Huge damage to trees and houses
In Japan, the storm has damaged trees and homes in Okinawa and surrounding islands, causing heavy rain and severe winds. This created a risk of flooding. More than 100 flights connecting islands and parts of the main southern island of Kyushu have been affected.
People are also in the grip of storm
Footage shown on Japan’s NHK national television showed the storm uprooted trees and rained heavily on sidewalks. A greenhouse of mangoes was demolished on Ishigaki Island. According to media reports, two elderly people on the main Okinawa island fell down and suffered minor injuries.
People were evacuated to safe places
Officials said the slow-moving storm could bring rain. The risk of flooding may increase in the southern region, where dense rain clouds are trapped. More than 600 residents of New Taipei, Taoyuan and Hsinchu counties in Taiwan were moved to shelters on Saturday amid heavy rain and strong winds, according to the island’s central news agency.
The typhoon caused landslides in Miyoli County and uprooted more than 100 trees along the road. About 40 flights and more than 100 ferry services to Taiwan were also canceled on Saturday.

The growing frequency of products "going on allocation"-the phrase used to refer to rationing once considered rare for P&G and its industry-is leading some retailers and analysts to wonder whether it stems not from bad demand forecasting but rather from conservative cash management or cagey marketing strategy.
"P&G is too smart to have this many outages," said one analyst, who believes the company's growing use of outside manufacturers to limit risk-along with more conservative capital expense and inventory control-may play a role.
Shortages of P&G's blockbuster $300 million-plus Prilosec OTC have been well publicized, but rationing has also extended in the past year to Pampers Feel & Learn and Easy Ups diapers, certain sizes of revamped Luvs, Tampax Pearl tampons, Febreze Scentstories and Air Effects air-freshener products and Olay Quench hand and body lotion, retailers report. Pampers, Luvs, Tampax and Febreze products all have come off allocation since November, but restrictions on Prilosec OTC may remain for at least another month and Olay Quench has been in short supply since its official February launch date.
Why? The answers from P&G brands are eerily similar. "America's chronic heartburn problem was just bigger than we ever imagined," said a spokesman regarding Prilosec OTC. "The impact in the marketplace was greater than we expected," said another spokesman regarding Olay Quench.
Yet another P&G spokesman said the company is currently delivering more than 99% of retail orders, but that some disruptions have stemmed from "new to the world" technologies and new supply partnerships adding complexity to the system.
The analyst, however, remains skeptical. "You wonder if they may be devilishly doing it to cut back on trade promotion." Using rationing to smooth sales over a longer period with less promotion could result in just as much product being sold but at a higher net price, he speculated.
"There used to be a saying: `When in doubt, allocate,"' said Ken Harris, managing director of WPP Group's Cannondale Associates. "But you can't do it so often that people start to get wise or think it's not genuine."
Certainly, allocation has done no lasting damage to the brands yet. P&G's February diaper market share-two months after restrictions were lifted-is up 7% vs. year ago. Similarly, Tampax Pearl reached record sales and share last month.
Spokespeople declined to comment on how shortages have affected marketing plans, but all the brands have continued to run media advertising. Regardless of the reason, some retailers are mad. "Whenever you're on allocation, you wonder if someone else is getting more," said one supermarket buyer, referring to Wal-Mart Stores. "It's difficult when you can't merchandise as you'd like."
But P&G executives said its allocation policies are designed to be fair to all. Another retail buyer believes problems in demand forecasting stem from P&G announcing product plans closer to ship date to keep competitors in the dark longer.

South 55, Campus 46
In starting the season 0-6, one issue for the Salina South Lady Cougars was the fact they were playing several very talented teams. They had no margin for error and as a result could not find a win, until this week when they got two. In Tuesday’s 12-point road win over Newton, the Cougars had the game in hand after three quarters and were never threatened late. On Friday at Campus, South had to find a way to win when the game was very much in doubt. Collectively, the team made the plays on both ends to pull away for a 55-46 victory.
Each team scored in small bunches and traded the lead in the first half. Campus led 12-10 after one quarter and then the Cougars put up 19 second quarter points to lead 29-26 at the half. Junior Kalysa Hamel, who on Tuesday against Newton had set a career-high with 11 points, set another high with four first-half three-pointers and 12 points to lead the South offense.
The Colts scored the first six points of the third to take a three-point lead. South would respond to jump ahead by two before Campus tied the score on two occasions, the last being at 36-all. Acacia Weis’ three put South ahead and Lizzy Franco’s long jumper put the Cougars up by five at the end of the third.
Each side labored to score early in the fourth. Then, the Colts got a three from Tya Tindall to trim the South lead to two at 43-41. But, that would be as close at Campus got down the stretch. Weis and Sydney Peterson hit threes and Kylie Arnold made a pair of free throws to help spread the lead out and the Cougars were able to get defensive stops to close it out.
Hamel’s five treys and 15 points led the Cougars. Weis scored 12, Arnold 11 and Franco 10 which matched the career-high she set in the win at Newton just three days earlier. Campus got 21 from Tindall to lead all scorers.
South is now 2-6 and is riding high heading into next week’s SIT. They will host Buhler in an opening round game next Thursday at 5:00pm.

Luke 24:46-49 New International Version
46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 You are witnesses of these things. 49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”
Acts 2:1-4 New International Version
The Holy Spirit Comes at Pentecost
2 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 2 Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues[a] as the Spirit enabled them.
Acts 6:1-7 New International Version
The Choosing of the Seven
6 In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews[a] among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. 2 So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. 3 Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them 4 and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.”
5 This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit; also Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism. 6 They presented these men to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them.
7 So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.
1 Timothy 3:8-13 New International Version
8 In the same way, deacons[a] are to be worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain. 9 They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience. 10 They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons.
11 In the same way, the women[b] are to be worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and trustworthy in everything.
12 A deacon must be faithful to his wife and must manage his children and his household well. 13 Those who have served well gain an excellent standing and great assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus.
2 Timothy 4:5 New International Version
5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.
FOLLOW THE FATHER’S PLAN
As the church was growing, God was anointing others to be leaders—locally as deacons, community-wide as evangelists, and globally as missionaries. This is the plan, and it begins with the promise of the Father empowering His people with a holy boldness to proclaim the Good News, step out in faith, and go to those whom others might avoid. The mission will often press us beyond our comfort zones with the message of hope and help that will heal the hurting.
It may start small, but every church should launch ministries that expand the Good News, both in word and deed, into the community. When we open our eyes to the world around us and open our ears to hear the Spirit, God will lead us to the places and spaces where powerful ministry can explode with dynamic results.

The City of Santa Ana is going to arraign thirteen people on Oct. 15 on charges in connection with a controversial raid at a medical marijuana dispensary where Santa Ana police were caught on hidden video purportedly snacking on pot edibles, according to the O.C. Register.
The defendants are all represented by Anthony L. Curiale, a Brea-based attorney. The defendants are going to plea not guilty at the Orange County Superior Court.
The defendants were cited for suspicion of unlawful operation of a medical marijuana collective. If convicted of the misdemeanor offense, they face up to 6 months in jail or $1,000 fine. However, the Santa Ana City Attorney’s Office can reduce the charges to an infraction that doesn’t carry any times behind bars.
That is exactly what the City Attorney should do. And the equipment and materials that were seized by the SAPD should be returned to the defendants.
The people of California voted years ago to make medical marijuana legal. Santa Ana should have found a way to legalize medical marijuana dispensaries years ago. Shame on our lame City Council for sitting on their hands until the medical marijuana community forced their hands with their own ballot measure last year.
The real problem in our city is not medical marijuana dispensaries but rather the gangs who sell drugs illegally on our streets. The SAPD should focus on shutting down the gangs instead of harassing the medical marijuana community.


Car ownership, can be a joy so it’s worth while considering just how important it is to take care of your car properly.
Car ownership is like owing any other gadget or item – if you don’t look after it properly, you will eventually need to replace it.
Here are just five of the key car ownership mistakes that people have made in the past, that have cost them far more than they could have imagined.
The Wrong Wheels
Believing that you are a car expert, when you are new to the world of automobiles can be a disastrous car ownership mistake to try and pull off. For instance, installing oversized wheels is a rookie mistake and will eventually cause you nothing but massively expensive problems. You can eventually damage the fenders and wheel wells for your vehicle and leave yourself with a huge bill to pay and no car for quite some time.
Tyres care is a big part of car ownership, and aligning them in the wrong manner is a mistake that plenty of people do. If you’re putting on new tyres make sure they are properly aligned. Failure to do so will see your tyre’s running out much quicker than you ever thought possible!
Ignoring Oil Changes
Just like anything else that uses oil, it has to be changed and re-mixed from time to time. Whilst oil technology has improved in the last generation or so, it’s still vital to make sure that your car gets an oil change from time to time. If you fail to do so, this car ownership mistake will eventually start to cause your engine to wear out, as there will not be efficient enough lubricant. This can be an expensive problem to clean up, in more ways than one.
Buying Cheap Batteries
Sometimes, trying to save money on vehicle maintenance will only cost you far more in the long-term. A dead battery as you might imagine is useless. When buying a car battery, look online for the exact battery type for your vehicle and try going for one of the better ranges. Buying a cheap replacement to save a few pounds may cost you extra money for a battery charger and a replacement, so try not to scrimp and save in this department.
Unprofessional Body Work
The last thing that your vehicle needs is cheap bodywork – if you have dented or damaged your car, get a professional to fix the problem. Your mate with a hammer or that DIY specialist with his own garage out the back, might not be the best people to really help you, as it may end up costing you far more in the future.
If you can think of any other car ownership mistakes you want to shout, about feel free to let me know.

4 Ridiculous Common Car Faults
As a car owner, you will no doubt be aware of the massive dirge of common car faults that can befall drivers at any given time.
Whether it’s a car garage giving you an eye-watering bill for a “simple repair”, or one of the common car faults where your car fails to start en route to your biggest conference of the year. Common car faults are a problem that most of us could do without.
While some of us driver cars that run with pristine authority, some drivers just cannot seem to get out of the street without something going wrong!
So… to try and get yourself prepared for auto life, here are five of the most common car faults you are likely to make or witness at one stage:
A Lack of Life
Battery problems are the bane of any driver’s existence.
Common car faults like draining the battery by leaving the lights on overnight can be a terrible mistake, especially if you can’t get to work because of a flat battery.
The problem is that you don’t hear of these common car faults regularly as you should – but they happen all the time!
Common car faults like this have been a long-term problem for many motorists over the years. The best way to dodge this problem is to buy a charge kit so that you can get yourself going in the morning, or to live next door to the world’s friendliest neighbor who happens to have a jump lead pack.
Doh! This is one of the most common car faults issues you’ll see on the roads. In fact, on any typical work week you’re likely to see at least one absolutely raging person standing by their car waiting for vehicle support to arrive, usually in the rain. A flat tyre can be dodged, by making sure you go for a car service regularly and getting your tyres checked out.
Ah, fuel – one of the most costly resources on the planet. Fuel problems are part of the common car faults pack. For a typical driver and the best way to deal with these problems is to make sure that you ALWAYS use the correct fuel in your vehicle. Sound stupid? Okay well hands up how many have put the wrong fuel in their car?
Common car faults can also entail damaged vehicle cables. This can be so infuriating because they can literally put you off the road. A car with damaged brake cables, a weak throttle cable or a useless clutch cable is effectively a massive danger on the road. Here’s some advice: get those cables checked pronto. Find a good garage and get those cables looked at and replaced.
Another suggestion is to try a buy a solid car from the get go. This may sound obvious, but you would be surprised at the level of poor electrics that are found in cars. However a good car garage should be able to sort you out with an easy and reliable fix fast.
To health and vehicle happiness,
Your fearless mechanic,
Broken Car Radio Solutions
One of the most liberating parts of owning a car is that it becomes your own little X factor auditon room. Flying down the motorway belting out your favorite songs on the car radio can be great fun, and without having access to that radio you are missing out on one of the most enjoyable parts of driving.
The problem is that radio issues can start from literally nowhere, and leave you with a very frustrating drive to work in the “peace & quiet”. Sometimes, just hearing that one great song can make all the difference to your work performance, so having a working car radio is very important.
So, what could be causing your problem? Here are some of the most common issues and how to solve them;
Won’t Turn On
The most basic car radio problem is the old-school “just won’t turn on” method that we are all such huge fans of. When this happens it can be absolutely infuriating and most of the time the issue is actually really easy to fix. It will typically be a power and/or ground issue – start off by checking the fuses. You can find online guides for your own car model to find these with ease.
Try replacing the car radio fuse, and see how that goes. If it’s still broken or breaks again shortly later, you might have a short elsewhere in the car that will need help from a pro mechanic.
How great is it to have access to the car radio, but have no sound? Not great at all, that’s how great it is! The problem is that this can be caused by so many different issues as well, so it’s kind of hard to come up with a solution. It could be dodgy speaker wires, it could be an issue with the amp…it’s a bit of a nightmare to come up with a solution for!
Additionally, it could be something simple like a broken wire or a bad connection with the car radio speaker wires. Therefore, you’ll be doing a fair bit of running around trying to come up with a solution – be prepared for the hard work that comes with doing so, and the trial & error sessions that come from dealing with a lack of sound from your speakers.
A common solution is opening and closing the car door again – this might sound daft, but some cars just love to be awkward to put you in a bad mood for the rest of the day! Solving car radio problems can take a while, especially when it’s something innocuous like your speakers. But if you are really at our wits end with the problems then take your car to a specialist or a garage, they’ll be able to sort it for you within no time at all.

Our group of 4 loved our stay, the villa was away from the chaos of Mykonos town and a short walk from a beautiful beach. The staff were very helpful with recommendations for things to see and do and helped us with getting a car rental. Would definitely stay again if we go back to Mykonos.
Great centrally located villa - perfect for relaxing time on the Island.
Stayed in two bedroom villa with family of four (mom-dad-college age brother & sister) May 2017. Everybody loved it and host Lemonia was available to provide us with anything we needed - making it feel like home away from home with a great view. Suggest you rent a vehicle - as the location is located outside of town and you'll need to drive to restaurants and beaches. Would stay again and highly recommend to anyone wanting to kick back and relax and see Mykonos.
Beautiful Property, Warm& Welcoming Host
This property is gorgeous in its setting, view, and the construction of its rooms. Situated in a less crowded part of Mykonos, it commands a sweeping view of the surroundings, including Ftelia Beach (where windsurfers race to and fro). Lemonia manages her property, not impersonally as a hotel/lodging, but as an extension of her home- you feel as if you are an instant part of her extended family. She goes out of her way to ensure that she helps with all aspects of your stay- even beyond the borders of her place. In short, I would highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to travel outside of the most touristy parts of Mykonos and feel right at home in beautiful surroundings.
Perfeolliday in a perfect Villa
From the moment we arrived, me and my friends, we fell in love with the villa. It is even better in real than it seems in the photos. It has a wonderful veranda which was perfect for dinners and lovely shared pool. The villa is very cute and clean. every day we had clean set of towels and every morning it was cleaned up. The property owner Lemonia was also very friendly and helpful. Even before we arrived she gave us really good tips. We had a car rented with her help ( car is highly recommended in Mykonos).
Villa is perfect for friends and family. No matter how you want to spend a vacation Mykonos is a good idea and Villa Megista Blue too. you can enjoy the perfect villa and fun of Mykonis nightlife and fantastic beaches.
I highly recommend Villa Megista Blue. Its a paradise you can have in Mykonos.
Luxury villa in tranquil setting
Our recent four night stay at Villa Atalia was a joy! The settting is serene, yet within easy reach of Mykonos town, amazing beaches and night life. After several long flights and ferry ride, it was great to relax a bit by the beautiful swimming pool with white marble skirting, before making our way to dinner at a cool beach bar above Fetelia Beach, just a short walk from the villa.
The villa itself surpassed our expectations, offering high-end finishes and spotless white furnishings, but we were most impressed and taken with the owners, Lemonia and George, and their three very sweet dogs, whom they keep under foot. Lemonia expertly directed us to the best of Mykonos and provided valuable insider information about beaches, dining, taxi service, etc. Her cleaning staff arrived daily and provided clean bath and beach towels each morning, while George made certain the pool was immaculate, offered his taxi services and responsed to our every request with a big "no problem"!
Lemonia and George happily accomodated our every need and rescued us when our ferry was cancelled the night of our departure and we found ourselves stranded at the port with no transportation or place to sleep. They made our visit to Mykonos most memorable and we left feeling we'd made friends for life.
Absolute paradise for us!!
The house has all the amenities you would expect, two bathrooms, an extremely well equipped kitchen ,cosy lounge, washing and dishing machines,daily cleaning service,comfortable beds and high-teck AC units.The house was meticulously clean and the quality of the furnishings very high.And there is not any lack of outdoor spaces.Everywhere marble patios and balkonies,nice garden.
The owner, was particularly gracious and welcoming.Waiting us at the airport on the day of arrival to help us with our luggage and escort us to the villa.Everyday she was keeping in touch staying nearby and always polite to give us info about the island's beauties.A wonderful Summer in Mykonos.
Located at Ftelia beach, a world-wide famous very beautiful clean beach, in the famous resort of Mykonos.Ftelia is an isolated paradise during the 4,8 km away Mykonos summer madness-renowned for its outrageous night-life, with more bars and discos per square foot than just about anywhere else on the planet while its trendy shopping has attracted even the likes of Armani, Donna Karan, Cartier, and Bulgari, just to name a few. The beach is also well known for the famous neolithic settlement found there believed that is the tomb of ancient Iliad hero Ajax the Locrian. It is an ideal place because of its natural calmness, but when winds are over 5-6 bf the place becomes a perfect place for sailing and windsurfing.

- READ MORE: Coldplay and BTS’ new song ‘My Universe’ is a celestial ode to unity, hope and the power of love
Speaking to Zane Lowe on Apple Beats 1 in an interview that will air at 5pm BST today (September 24), Martin spoke about the group’s forthcoming studio album ‘Music Of The Spheres’ following their hit comeback song ‘Higher Power‘.
Martin described making the album as “very liberating” before going on to explain more about what fans can expect from the project.
He said: “It’s just a bunch of love songs cleverly disguised and…Well not that cleverly disguised, actually. When you set something in another place, there’s a freedom to say what you really feel. So there’s a lot of love.”
“Also, some confusion about someone like me, who has a way to go in terms of understanding love and everything, and then also like not just romantic love, but love for your fellow humans.”
He continued: “How do you handle people you don’t love, and regimes, you might not like. And so in a strange way, it’s set [in another world], but it’s really about here.”
The new joint single was co-written by both bands, alongside Swedish hitmaker Max Martin, and is sung in both English and Korean. The song is also the second single to be lifted from their upcoming album.
Reviewing the song, NME said: “Given the song’s subject matter, it would be easy for it to slump into despair or anger, fuelled by unnecessary barriers of discrimination.
“Yet it remains hopeful throughout, BTS’ Suga rapping: “After all, this hardship is just brief / Always shine as bright as you are now.” Despite the ugliness the world often wields, they’re keeping the faith that love can still conquer all.”

This is part several of a multipart group of articles with regards to proposed anti-gambling laws. In this post, I carry on the topic of typically the reasons claimed in order to make this guidelines necessary, and typically the facts that are present in the real-world, including the Jack Abramoff connection in addition to the addictive characteristics of gambling online.
Typically the legislators want to shield us from some thing, or are they? The whole factor seems just a little puzzling to say the particular least.
As mentioned in previous articles, typically the House, and the particular Senate, are as soon as again taking into consideration the concern of “Online Gambling”. Bills are actually posted by Congressmen Goodlatte and Leach, in addition to also by Senator Kyl.
The expenses being put ahead by Rep. Goodlatte, The Internet Casino Prohibition Act, has got the stated intention associated with updating the Cable Act to outlaw all forms associated with online gambling, to make it illegal to get a gambling business to simply accept credit and digital transfers, and to force ISPs in addition to Common Carriers to block access to playing related sites from the request of law enforcement.
Simply as does Repetition. Goodlatte, Sen. Kyl, in his expenses, Prohibition on Financing of Unlawful Web Gambling, makes that illegal for betting businesses to accept credit cards, electronic digital transfers, checks and also other forms of transaction and for the purpose on placing illegal bets, nevertheless his bill does not address all those that place wagers.
The bill submitted by Rep. Leach, The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, is actually a copy of the expenses submitted by Sen. Kyl. It targets preventing gambling businesses from accepting charge cards, electronic transfers, investigations, and other obligations, and like typically the Kyl bill can make no becomes precisely what is currently legal, or illegal.
Inside a quote from Goodlatte we have “Jack Abramoff’s total neglect for the legislative procedure has allowed Internet gambling to keep thriving directly into what is now a new twelve billion-dollar business which not just hurts individuals and their families but makes the economic system suffer by wearing vast amounts of dollars coming from the Us plus serves as an automobile for money washing. “
There usually are several interesting details here.
First regarding all, we certainly have a little misdirection concerning Jack Abramoff fantastic disregard for typically the legislative process. This kind of comment, and other people that have already been made, follow the logic that; 1) Jack Abramoff has been opposed to these bills, 2) Plug Abramoff was damaged, 3) to stay away from being associated along with corruption you need to election for these charges. This is involving course absurd. In case we followed this kind of logic to typically the extreme, we ought to go back plus void any charges that Abramoff recognized, and enact any kind of bills that he or she opposed, regardless of the content in the bill. Legislation must be passed, or not, in line with the merits of the proposed guidelines, not based on the status of one individual.
At the same time, when Jack port Abramoff opposed past bills, he performed so on behalf of the client eLottery, making an attempt to get the sale for lottery seat tickets over the internet excluded from the legislation. Ironically, the protections he or she was seeking are usually included in this kind of new bill, considering that state run lotteries would be omitted. Jack Abramoff as a result would probably help this legislation considering that it gives him or her what having been seeking for. That does not stop Goodlatte and others from using Abramoff’s recent bad as an implies to make their own bill look much better, thus making it not just an anti-gambling bill, yet somehow an ant-corruption bill as nicely, and rewarding Abramoff great client.
Next, is his affirmation that online casino “hurts individuals and even their families”. I presume that precisely what he is mentioning to here is trouble gambling. Let’s set in place the record directly. Only a smaller percentage of bettors become problem gamblers, not a smaller percentage of the population, but just a small percentage of gamblers.
In addition , Goodlatte would possess you feel that Internet gambling is more addictive than online casino gambling. Sen. Kyl has gone as long as to call online gambling “the crack cocaine of gambling”, attributing the quote to some un-named researcher. For the contrary, researchers have shown that gambling on the Internet is no more hard to kick than gambling throughout a casino. Because a matter regarding fact, electronic gambling machines, found found in casinos and competition tracks all above the country usually are more addictive than online gambling.
Inside research by N. Dowling, D. Smith and T. Jones at the School of Health Savoir, RMIT University, Bundoora, Australia “There is definitely a general look at that electronic gaming is the many ‘addictive’ form involving gambling, in that that contributes more in order to causing problem betting than some other wagering activity. As such, electronic digital gaming machines have been referred in order to as the ‘crack-cocaine’ of gambling”.
토토사이트 Since to Sen. Kyls claim about “crack cocaine”, quotes at http://www.alternet.org/drugreporter/20733/ include “Cultural busybodies have very long known that in post this-is-your-brain-on-drugs The united states, the best way to win attention for an animal cause is to be able to compare it to be able to some scourge that will already scares typically the bejesus out of America”. And “During the 1980s in addition to ’90s, it was a little diverse. Then, a troubling new trend has not been officially on the public radar till someone dubbed that “the new split cocaine. ” And even “On his Vice Squad weblog, College of Chicago Teacher Jim Leitzel paperwork which a Google look for finds experts declaring slot machines (The New York Instances Magazine), video slot machine games (the Canadian Press) and casinos (Madison Capital Times) the “crack cocaine associated with gambling, ” correspondingly. Leitzel’s search also found that spam email is “the crack cocaine regarding advertising” (Sarasota, Fla. Herald Tribune), in addition to that cybersex is a kind of sexual “spirtual crack cocaine” (Focus for the Family)”.
As all of us can easily see, calling anything the “crack cocaine” has turned into a meaningless metaphor, showing only of which the person generating the statement can feel it is essential. But then many of us knew that Repetition. Goodlatte, Rep. Make their way and Sen. Kyl felt that the particular issue was important or they didn’t have brought the proposed legislation forwards

Edmonton Civic Precinct Master Plan
Edmonton’s urban thinking is in the midst of a profound shift. After years of low-density urban extension, the city is changing its focus to creating a dense, lively urban core.
The redesign of the civic precinct began with the overarching goal of a lively centre that connects and inspires people, a place that Edmontonians will want to visit again and again. An open, accessible public space, a safer and inviting area achieved through adjusting the hierarchy of public spaces and fostering pedestrian use. A more diverse place that satisfies the needs of many users, achieved by recalibrating Churchill Square, Centennial Plaza and City Hall Plaza.
Edmonton’s plan for the civic precinct is not a typical master plan. It is a vision that starts and ends with people. It’s about bringing more Edmontonians downtown, about meshing the vibrancy of Edmonton’s festivals with everyday life. It’s about making spaces that work as well in the winter as they do in the summer, and giving people reasons to want to walk outside. It’s about engaging businesses, politicians, and citizens in city-building projects that makes Edmonton a greener, more beautiful and welcoming place.
The plan reflects the values and aspirations of Edmonton’s citizens, who emphatically asked for a vibrant pedestrian realm. The design team met individually and collectively with stakeholders: business owners, festivals, representatives of the cultural areas, museums, courts, property owners, developers and social service groups. This input contributed immeasurably to a personal perspective about strengths and weaknesses, and what it would take to become more engaged citizens of the precinct.
The implementation approach is pragmatic and opportunistic, piggybacking upon projects underway, with a slow crescendo of new elements that will catalyze a transformation that will see the emergence of Edmonton as one of the most vibrant all-season civic centres in North America.
gh3* were prime consultants for this Master Plan, leading a team of 7 consultants.
gh3 Team: Pat Hanson, Raymond Chow, Joel Di Giacomo, John McKenna, Simon Routh

Where to begin describing these two extraordinary Cuban musicians? Pianist Chucho Valdés and singer-songwriter Pablo Milanés have over years 100 years of experience between them and are arguably the two greatest living exponents of Latin jazz.
Milanes was an instrumental mover and shaker in the key nueva trova movement in the late ’60s, although his later career has favoured ballads of the heart over matters of state. Valdés, meanwhile, has continued in the tradition of his famous father Bebo and is revered by many music fans for his work with the Grammy Award-winning Irakere, which he co-founded in 1972.
On their first studio album together, Valdés and Milanés have opted to perform a collection of original songs and in the process have fashioned one of the most exemplary Latin recordings of the new millennium. First released in 2007, Más Allá De Todo is now gaining its first UK release courtesy of the ever reliable Wrasse label.
Now, I make no excuses in professing my ignorance of the Spanish language, but a translation of the lyrics would have been mighty useful. And I only make the point because the passion of Milanes’ voice grasps the listener so hard that one is left aching for the meaning behind these beautiful songs.
Distancias opens the album and sets the musical blueprint for what is to follow. A few gentle rolls on the piano from Valdés and then Milanés enters proceedings, his voice alternating between a relaxed, conversational tone and moments of emotive Latin phrasing.
Valdés is on prime form throughout the album. The brief flurries that punctuate tracks such as Mary, Días De Otoño and Recuento are evidence of a master at work, but for the most part he is content to sit back and provide sensitive accompaniment to the more demonstrative Milanés. It’s all a long way from the energetic roll and tumble that provided the driving force behind Irakere, but it is instructive to hear him in this kind of mood.
Milanés benefits greatly from the partnership, reining in his tendency to overegg his vocals in favour of a flow that never threatens to drown the simplicity of the arrangements. Only once do we see a flash of the Milanés of old, on the pulsating album closer Choteo. A curious if fun ending to an album stuffed to the gills with yearning ballads.
Más Allá De Todo has already become a hit in Latin America and it deserves to gain a wider audience throughout the English-speaking world. The music transports you to a better place, far, far away from the troubles and cares of the everyday world.

Dr. Robert Malone reported on Twitter a series of tweets that should cause alarm to vaccine pushers and the vaccinated.
Freedom First Network has collated them together.
I guess I need to say this again. Delta has an Ro of about 8, about 3x that of the Alpha (ref- CDC). With these leaky vaccines, if we were to have 100% vaccine uptake and perfect mask use we cannot stop the spread of Delta (ref- CDC).
- the current vaccines provide about 50-60% efficacy in protection from infection. They are not fully protective.
- if you are vaccinated and become infected (“breakthrough”), the virus will replicate at the same or higher levels than if you were unvaccinated and then become infected.
- if you are vaccinated and then become infected, your risk of transmitting virus to someone else is quite high – remember, the Ro measures how likely you are to transmit the virus.
- if you are vaccinated and then become infected, your risk of developing severe disease or dying is better than if you were not vaccinated and then become infected with Delta.

As many indie creators are well aware, getting your book published and onto the shelves of comic book stores is no easy feat these days.
Io was to be his latest miniseries, published by Slave Labor Graphics and starring a young galactic prince who wanted to be a rockstar but was instead saddled with an empire.
Diamond Comics Distributors, the primary distribution channel for comic book publishers in North America, declined to carry Io on grounds that it didn’t meet its new benchmark standards.
You see, last January DCD raised their advance sales order minimum by roughly another 2/3rds over what it previously was. This spelled doom for indie creators trying to get a new product into distribution.
The first two issues of Warlord of Io, as well as a one-off special issue titled Warlord Of Io And Other Stories , were made available for digital download. Plans for the book were shelved.
DCD proved the insurmountable obstacle that would end Turner’s ambitions for making Warlord of Io available in comic shops across North America.
Fortunately for all of us, this Warlord wouldn’t be beaten so easily.
Turner pressed on, completing enough of Warlord of Io to assemble a 206 page graphic novel.
The Warlord of Io graphic novel is due out in July, and is presently being solicited in the May issue of Previews. It features a complete story about Zing (the unwilling Warlord) and his out-of-this-world companions.
I chatted with Turner about the new book, and the resulting interview is below:
KD: When we last spoke, the chances of Warlord of Io seeing a retailer release via Diamond Comics Distributors were looking pretty bleak. With that in mind, it must have been a fair-sized gamble for you to go on ahead and complete enough of Io to fill an entire graphic novel, on hopes that as a standalone full-sized release it will do better against the benchmark.
What made you decide that this was a gamble worth taking?
JT: I was already heavily invested in the project, and I figured that the higher price-point would make it a good bet for distribution. The higher the price, the fewer orders you need.
But if that didn’t work, I intended to put the whole thing up on the net. Either way it wasn’t going to just sit on my shelf. That kept me going.
KD: Why was it so important to you that you see this story release as a hard, physical copy? Why not just keep releasing the individual issues as purchasable digital downloads?
JT: While more people are reading online, most still want to read a hard copy, and the Warlord of Io digital issues simply did not sell in large numbers. Some people refuse to read comics online.
I also have an attachment to printed books that people who drink Pepsi may not share.
KD: Let’s talk about what exactly is going to be in the graphic novel. Will the first 2 issues presently available for digital download form the beginning of the tale? What about the W.o.I. & Other Stories one shot?
JT: The story begins with the one-shot. It goes on through the first 2 issues that are on the net, but I’ve altered them.
I took advantage of the cancellation to delete and add material, refine dialogue, enhance backgrounds, and generally polish it up.
Once I’d finished the whole work and gotten the ending ‘drawn’, I went back and pulled the rest of the book tighter together. It was all plotted out, but as you write, you discover, alter and add things. It’s harder to go back and ret-con elements if it’s the material already published in pamphlet form. After having some people read the first draft, I emphasized some elements more, and pulled other parts back.
KD: You’ve said that Warlord of Io is the breeziest work you’ve done. Could you elaborate on that?
JT: Picasso apparently said that art is the elimination of the unnecessary.
I’m well known (infamous?) for text heavy work, particularly with the first few issues of Rex Libris. Well. It was about a librarian, after all. And the comics I read as a kid were much more text heavy than they are now. In any case, the density of the text alienated a lot of people.
And since these days we’re constantly bombarded by information (by magazines, newspapers, television, radio, film, games, email, ipods, etc) people are skimming more. They want the information delivered distilled. I can understand that.
KD: You mentioned in our last interview that accessibility was a big priority for you with this particular project. Now that the book’s completed, do you feel like you achieved what you set out to do on that front?
JT: I’d like to think so, but the verdict won’t be in until the book comes out in July. It’s a very tough market out there, and it doesn’t support idiosyncratic work as much as it did just a few years ago.
I don’t think Rex Libris would last two issues if it came out now. It helps if you have a natural, mass market sensibility.
KD: Just for fun, let’s rock the book description Mad Lib style. Fill in the blanks:
JT: I’d say…
Warlord of Io is like The Lion King crossed with Flash Gordon, dripping with a healthy portion of Star Wars and served with a side of Doctor Who.
KD: What are some of the highlights of what Io fans can look forward to as Zing’s adventure continues in the graphic novel?
JT: Imperial Ion Rock music, asteroid belt jungles, space battles, massive electrical storms and charged ion clouds teeming with plasmaforms, floating calciferous slabs the size of continents, megalomaniacal villains, and pirate treasure.
KD: The universe you’ve built with this story is, much like your other books, as distinguishable by its unique visual style as it is by its creatively curious language.
When you were making up names or phrases while you put together the book, (like for instance, “minnow suicide torpedoes”, “Moxy Comet”, or “Dak Wyr Plotka”) did they just pop into your head as you were writing or did you ever have to actually sit down and brainstorm some of the more fantastic stuff?
JT: A bit of both. Moxy Comet is meant to follow sci-fi and fantasy conventions. Combine ‘Moxy’ (or Flash, or Buck), which she has in abundance, with a ’space’ term, such as ‘Comet’ (or Skywalker or Starkiller. Maximillian Zing(Max Zing) follows the same lines. I wanted them silly but not too silly.
Minnow suicide torpedoes are named after their minnow crew, and are a reference to the TTA (Terran Trade Authority) books I read as a kid, which had an Alphan ship called the ‘Minnow’.
Dak is a term for general in Ionian; I wanted to have a few, not many, just a few, custom terms. Warlord of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs has hundreds like this, as do many other sci-fi books. You can really over do it, but in moderation I think it’s a fun (and funny) convention. So I added in a few terms that had the same sort of sound and feel as Burroughs.
He had his own units of measurement (haads, for example) and time for Mars, so I have Ions measure time by Tics and Tocs. Not different enough to be unrecognizable, but hey, it’s another planet so you have to rename ordinary things something else. Like hydrospanner instead of screwdriver, or visiscope instead of telescope.
Plotka is an acronym for Press Lots of Keys to Abort. Text messaging is going to have an effect on language, so I put in some texting abbreviations. I stripped some of them out of the final graphic novel, but there are still a few left.
Other names were just meant to be evocative of a similiar term, like Grymak and grime. Another sci-fi/fantasy convention.
KD: Is Warlord of Io: the graphic novel going to be Volume 1 of a larger series? Could you see yourself taking it beyond the current story that you’ve fleshed out for the book?
JT: Both. It can end with this volume, no problem. It’s got a good wrap up. I’d like to do a sequel, as there’s lots more stories to tell about Io, but if there’s no demand, well, no one is left hanging.
KD: How has the whole experience of getting Warlord of Io onto the shelves of comic book stores affected your perspective of Diamond Comics Distributors or about the distribution process for independent publishers in general?
JT: I think pamphlet comics are going to die off as far as independent publishers are concerned, except as promotional pieces distributed at cons for upcoming graphic novel collections. Otherwise, the big shift is to the internet for instalments.
DC and Marvel will keep them going for awhile yet, I imagine. They’re all about keeping IPs alive, and if they lose a bit of money on publishing pamphlets, so what? Their real revenue is in movies, toys, lunch boxes, tie-ins, and the like. The pamphlet helps keep the property in the public eye.
As far as graphic novels are concerned, the Direct Market is more friendly for small publishers (as comic book shops actually buy their work) than the big bookstores are (who can pulp the ones that don’t sell and not pay), so I hope it persists.
A big thanks to James for providing us with some lovely preview art from the forthcoming graphic novel. You can watch a trailer for Warlord of Io below: (In case you’re curious, the appropriately cinematic voice of the narrator does in fact belong to James Turner himself.)

As we stepped into the certainty abilities, more excessive-tech gadgets are required to entry this data. All those gadgets require a highly nice CPU to process huge data in exclaim to let of us entry the most unique data. Of us constantly roar that constructing a CPU is the an identical as printing an digital board. Nonetheless, the manufacturing of CPU is carefully associated to chemistry.
When corporations like Intel and AMD settle to form CPUs, the closing puzzle for them is situation up one thing with 1,000,000,000 items, after which make a conception so it will likely be build collectively because it’ll be and without prolong. Most CPUs, each business and skilled, are smaller than half of of a credit ranking card dimension. The handiest formula to resolve this shriek is to make roar of chemistry. The strategy of creating CPU is named fabrication. The structure of CPU is so advanced that even a single dirt may destroy the advanced circuitry on a chip.
The first ingredient of chips is silicon, and sand has a excessive share of silicon. First silicon is purified to less than one alien atom per billion. The commonest formula of doing that is to first change into sand to metallurgical grade silicon by the utilization of the following reaction: SiO2 + C = Si + CO2 Then, scientists will transfer metallurgical grade silicon to digital grade, which has less number of alien atoms. They roar Si + 3HCl = SiHCl3 + H2. All the intention thru this reaction, the impurities much like Fe, Al, and B will react with HCl and build other substances. the SiHCl3 has a low boiling point of 31.8 C and distillation is worn to purify the SiHCl3 from the impure halides. At closing, SiHCl3 will react with hydrogen at 1100 C for 200 ~300 hours to develop a extremely pure build of silicon.
After pure silicon is produced, they’ll prick the silicon ingot into particular particular person discs which could be called wafers. Every wafer is about one mm thick. After that, the photolithography process begins. Lots of the photolithography is in accordance with Diazoquinones (DQ). There are few steps to enact the photolithography process. Inaugurate with a DQ molecule (the molecule is a manufacturer variation), The DQ molecule is no longer going to dissolve in a irascible developer resolution. UV mild breaks the nitrogen molecule off, forming an unstable molecule. To stabilize itself, one of the most well-known carbon atoms within the ring pops out of the ring. Once the resolution is exposed to water, an OH neighborhood attaches to the carbon atoms, forming and acid. The Acid can then react and dissolve with the basic developer resolution. On this form, the manufacturer can “print” circuit patterns on the wafer. The manufacturer will repeat this process repeatedly till they’ve a multilayer processor. They’re going to also roar this intention to print other ingredients and gates on the processor.
This is how a processor is created. It makes roar of quite lots of chemical reactions to prick the circuit on the silicon wafers. Per the Moore’s Regulations, the number of transistors on a chip roughly doubles every couple of years. Therefore, there will likely be more ways for Intel and AMD to make a more highly nice CPU.

Present technology development in the area of materials replaces the conventional materials used in automobile and aerospace sector by composite materials due their less weight and bio degradability. This paper aims to fabricate and investigate the mechanical properties of abaca-raffia hybrid composite fabricated by hand layup process. Since, abaca fiber has more strength than other fibers like kenaf, banana and sisal, the composite with this fiber can be suitable replacement material for automotive applications.The properties like double shear and hardnessare evaluated andthe result shows that the double shear properties and hardness of the hybrid composites [GFRP+Abaca+Raffia] is higher than other two combinations. The internal microstructure of the hybrid composites were analysed using Scanning electron microscope (SEM).

|Article Title||"An Inalienable Right to Read" : Unesco's promotion of a universal culture of reading and public libraries and its involvement in Africa, 1948-1968|

"This Manifesto proclaims UNESCO's belief in the public library as a living force for education, culture and information, and as an essential agent for the fostering of peace and spiritual welfare through the minds of men and women." So reads the current Unesco Public Library Manifesto. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (Unesco) has, in the years since its foundation, attempted to shape the development of a library and reading culture based on certain principles envisioned as both universal to all people and fundamental to the future progress of the world. Yet the work undertaken by Unesco, and the ideas that have shaped the nature of this work, has largely remained unexplored by historians.

While World Battled Corona Crisis, Billionaires Got Richer By Trillions!
Davos (Switzerland): Even as the world is battling the coronavirus pandemic, billionaires have increased their wealth by over $3 trillion, according to a latest report by non-profit group Oxfam.
The report titled “The Inequality Virus” will be tabled at the World Economic Forum’s online Davos Agenda Summit on Monday.
Reinforcing the frightening income inequalities between the world’s super-rich and the hundreds of millions of people who live and die in abject poverty, the report said, “Worldwide, billionaires’ wealth increased by a staggering $3.9 trillion between March 18 and December 31, 2020… The world’s 10 richest billionaires have seen their wealth increase by $540 billion over this period.
“At the same time, the pandemic saw hundreds of millions of people lose their jobs and face destitution and hunger… It is estimated that the total number of people living in poverty could have increased by between 200 million and 500 million,” it added.
“The pandemic has exposed the fact that most people on Earth – who live on between $2 and $10 per day – are just one pay check away from penury,” Oxfam said, while those with billions in their pockets purchased private jets when commercial travel was banned.
According to “The Inequality Virus”, NDT reported, the increase in the wealth — just since the crisis began — of the world’s 10 richest billionaires is “more than enough to prevent anyone on Earth from falling into poverty because of the virus, and to pay for a COVID-19 vaccine for everyone”.
“The coronavirus crisis has shown us that for most of humanity, there has never been a permanent exit from poverty and insecurity… makes no common, moral or economic sense to allow billionaires to profit from the crisis in the face of such suffering,” the report stressed.
“Their increasing wealth should be used instead to save millions of lives and billions of livelihoods,” it added.
