Application no. 16098/03
by Galina Vasilyevna DEVYATOVA
The European Court of Human Rights (First Section), sitting on 2 March 2006 as a Chamber composed of:
Mr C.L. Rozakis, President,
Mr P. Lorenzen,
Mrs N. Vajić,
Mrs S. Botoucharova,
Mr A. Kovler,
Mrs E. Steiner,
Mr K. Hajiyev, judges,
Mr S. Quesada, Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above application lodged on 12 April 2003,
Having regard to the decision to apply Article 29 § 3 of the Convention and examine the admissibility and merits of the case together.
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
The applicant, Ms Galina Vasilyevna Devyatova, is a Russian national who was born in 1949 and lives in Bryansk. The Russian Government (“the Government”) are represented by Mr P. Laptev, the Representative of the Russian Federation at the European Court of Human Rights.
On 3 October 2002 the judge of the First Circuit (мировой судья участка номер 1) of the Sovestkiy District of Bryansk awarded the applicant 25,068.57 Russian Roubles (RUR), to be recovered from the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation. The decision has not been appealed against and entered in force on 14 October 2002. The court delivered the writ of execution, which was forwarded by the applicant to the defendant. However, it appears that the court decision remains unenforced for a certain period of time.
On 12 April 2003 the applicant brought proceedings before the European Court complaining of the lengthy non-execution of the court judgment in her favour. On 12 December 2005 the application was communicated by the Court to the Russian Government. In January 206 the applicant informed the Court that the outstanding amount due to her had been paid by the Ministry of Finance and that, in view of this fact, she did not want to pursue her application.
The applicant submitted that she wanted to withdraw her application because the outstanding amount due to her had been paid by the authorities.
The Court recalls Article 37 of the Convention which, in the relevant part, reads as follows:
“1. The Court may at any stage of the proceedings decide o strike an application out of the list of cases whet the circumstances lead to the conclusion that
(a) the applicant does not intend to pursue his/her application;
However, the Court shall continue the examination of the application if respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto so requires.”
The Court notes that the applicant does not intend to pursue her application. Furthermore, the Court considers that respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and Protocols does not require it to continue the examination of the case.
In these circumstances it considers that Article 29 § 3 of the Convention should no longer apply to the case and it should be struck out f the list in accordance with Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention.
For these reasons, the Court unanimously
Decides to discontinue the application of Article 29 § 3 of the Convention and to strike the application out of the list of cases.

Monsters, Inc.: Financial Page: The New Yorker:
"The desire to bring back the boring, small banking industry of the nineteen-fifties is understandable. Unfortunately, the only way to do that would be to bring back the economy of the fifties, too. Banking was boring then because the economy was boring. The financial sector’s most important job is channeling money from investors to businesses that need capital for worthwhile investment. But in the postwar era there wasn’t much need for this. The economy, while remarkably strong, was dominated by huge companies that faced little competition, and could finance investments out of their profits. And entrepreneurship was restrained: there were many fewer start-ups then than in the period after 1980. So the financial sector didn’t have much to do.
Two things changed this. First, in the seventies those huge companies started tottering, while the U.S. economy fell apart. Second, the corporate world was transformed by revolutionary developments in information technology and by the emergence of new industries like cable television, wireless, and biotechnology."
Interestingly in the same article Surowiecki writes about bubbles. And in particular that this one was unlike others since not only was there no real real (I love using the word real twice in a row) economy shift that led to it, but also (at least in his prediction) nothing good is coming out of this either.
Surowiecki sure can write!
"There have been three big banking booms in modern U.S. history. The first began in the late nineteenth century, during the Second Industrial Revolution, when bankers like J. P. Morgan funded the creation of industrial giants like U.S. Steel and International Harvester. The second wave came in the twenties, as electrification transformed manufacturing, and the modern consumer economy took hold. The third wave accompanied the information-technology revolution....In all these cases, it wasn’t so much that the bankers had changed; the world had.
The same can’t be said, though, of the boom of the past decade. The housing bubble was unique, and uniquely awful. Each of the previous waves had come in response to a profound shift in the real economy. With the housing bubble, by contrast, there was no meaningful development in the real economy that could explain why homes were suddenly so much more attractive or valuable. The only thing that had changed, really, was that banks were flinging cheap money at would-be homeowners, essentially conjuring up profits out of nowhere."

In theaters today is Get On Up, which focuses on the life on the legendary James Brown. He was a true pioneer in the funk sound, and is known worldwide as "The Godfather of Soul." While Complex Music put you onto James Brown tracks that hip-hop fans should know, we wanted to give you something different. They let the world know about Clyde Stubblefield, who was on the drums for James Brown's "Funky Drummer," which contains some Stubblefield licks that became the backbone of plenty of hip-hop tracks during an important era. The "Funky Drummer" breakbeat also had an impact on the dance music scene, possibly bridging from the love of hip-hop that many electronic music producers share.
From the early '90s hardcore days throughout most of the jungle and drum & bass scene, as well as being used in the breaks/breakbeat scene, the "Funky Drummer" has been a staple. Everyone from Moby to Machinedrum has utilized some part of the track, and we have a feeling that as more producers dive into using throwback tracks, these breaks will re-emerge once again. Here are 20 great uses of the "Funky Drummer" breakbeat.

I attribute my fascination with my ancestry to having been born and raised in the United States. Considering that almost the entire population traces its roots to another country, people are generally very interested in family history. This past summer, I started tracing my family history. I plan on eventually doing a longer post on my family history (including the results of my Mom and Dad’s DNA testing), but I found out that I’m related to a soldier that fought in the American Revolutionary War and that side of my family established themselves in present-day New England during the 1650’s! Furthermore, I’m living in the same state in Germany that my ancestors resided in over 500 years ago. Funny how everything ends up going full circle, right?
Well, my maternal grandmother (shout-out to my Grandma…a loyal blog follower) was convinced she was Czech. Unfortunately, I had to break the news to her that although her father was from Czechoslovakia, her ethnic origin was not Czech but rather Slovak. Actually, he was born in a small town in the far east of Slovakia near the present-day Slovakia-Ukraine border.
It was this family history that sparked my interest in Slovakia. When I was traveling from Prague to Budapest, I realized that the train stopped in Bratislava, Slovakia. I jumped at the opportunity to spend a day in the city and only wished that I had had a few more days there.
The Presidential Palace in Bratislava. Once a year, the palace is opened to the general public to come meet the President. Now just imagine the White House being opened once a year to meet the U.S. President. haha! The garden behind the Presidential Palace is absolutely amazing and always open to the general public. I highly recommend taking a walk through the garden and looking at all the unique sculptures.
After hiking up a massive hill (seriously, took me almost an hour to reach the top!), I finally made it to the Slavin War Memorial. This memorial was built to commemorate the liberation of Bratislava by the Red Army during World War II. This is only one section of the memorial. Besides the huge commemorative building (above), a wooden Russian cross (below) , and World War II bunkers (not pictured), this memorial is the final resting place for almost 7,000 Soviet soldiers. The memorial provides one of the best views of all of Bratislava and was just a very peaceful place. I ended up sitting on the stairs and reading for almost 2 hours!
The Bratislava Castle originally dates from 2800 BC although it has undergone many rebuildings, renovations, and restorations. Bratislava initially played an important role in the European trade routes due to its strategic location in Europe (in the middle of major countries) as well as its location on the Danube River (thus connecting it easily to many trade routes to both the east and west). This castle continues to be one of the most prominent symbols of Bratislava.
So I went to Bratislava and didn’t find any family history (I guess next time I need to travel further to the east). However, I did discover an amazing city that no one ever talks about in guidebooks! This quaint capital city of barely 400,000 people was definitely a breath of fresh air after coming from touristy Prague. If you’re ever taking a train from Prague to Budapest, I highly recommend stopping in Bratislava along the way. Not going to either of those cities? Don’t worry, Bratislava is less than a hour train ride away from Vienna, Austria! On a nice day, I recommend taking a boat down the Danube from Vienna to Bratislava! As always, enjoy!

Deals Gap, N.C. – The Tail of the Dragon is a gnarly stretch of Highway 129 out here, curling up and down a mountain with 318 curves over some 18 kilometres. There are motorcycle parts nailed to some of the trees, from those who misjudged the hairpins. But my ride, the new 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI, made its way through without breaking a sweat.
Both the Jetta and GLI were absent in Canada for 2018. They return all-new this year, now based on the automaker’s global modular platform architecture known as MQB. The Golf and its higher-performance GTI variant have used the underpinnings for a few years, but now that they’re siblings again under the skin, the GLI borrows the GTI’s engine, suspension, and larger brakes, and swaps out the regular Jetta’s torsion-beam rear suspension for a multi-link setup. Think of it as a GTI with a trunk.
In place of the regular Jetta’s 1.4-litre engine, the GLI uses a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder that makes 228 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque. Transmission choices are a six-speed manual or a quick-shifting, seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. Front-wheel drive is the default; there’s no all-wheel-drive available.
It comes pretty much fully-loaded, at $31,695 for the stickshift and $33,095 for the automatic. In honour of the 35 years the GLI’s been around, there’s a 35th Anniversary edition available that adds special badges, black accents, and unique wheels for an additional $750. The only available option, on either the regular or 35th model, is a $995 package that adds adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, emergency braking, and automatic high-beam headlights. In comparison, a regular Jetta starts at $20,995, while a GTI begins at $30,845.
A fire-breathing monster this is not, and it would be nice to have some extra grunt under the hood when many four-bangers are cranking out much more. But that said, I’m rather taken with it. It’s a gentleman’s (or gentlewoman’s) sporty-style sedan. It’s about linear acceleration, rather than a neck snap when you hit the throttle. It feels tight, but the ride isn’t feel-every-bump firm. The variable-ratio steering is responsive, well-weighted and smooth without a hint of twitchiness, and it tightens up when you select the Sport drive mode over the comfort-biased Normal or efficiency-minded Eco.
The Dragon can be a wicked beast. You’ll get a half-dozen simple bends that have you thinking you’ve got it mastered, and then you discover the next one rubs up beside the trees, slithering you around a tight blind corner and then boomerangs you into a skin-tight hairpin — hence the parts hanging off the trees. The GLI takes it all with graceful poise, adding good balance and flat cornering. If anything, it’s too silky for those who like their sporty rides to be primal and challenging, but that’s not this car’s audience.
I drove both the automatic, which itself accounted for some 60 per cent of the last-generation Jetta GLI’s sales, and the stick shift. Rowing your own gears in this car is the way to go, with a shifter that snicks effortlessly into each gear.
The automatic can be a bit more persnickety. If you drive it hard, it behaves just as you’d expect: The shifts are quick and with a satisfying burrrrp of rev-matching on downshifts. But with a more moderate throttle — basically, your everyday driving — the transmission seems to prize fuel efficiency above all else, even if the drive mode isn’t set to Eco. It moves up into higher gears as soon as possible and then likes to stay there, to the point that it can sometimes feel like it’s lugging the engine. There are paddle shifters to manually switch between the gears, but the transmission could be a little quicker to respond to them.
The GLI’s cabin maintains the Jetta’s handsome, less-is-more styling. There are simple dials and buttons for the climate control, and hard buttons to bring up the various functions of the infotainment touchscreen. The seats are typical of the German automakers: Firm rather than cushy, but that translates into support for your back and legs so you stay comfortable on longer drives. There’s a decent amount of rear-seat legroom, and the seatbacks fold down to increase the capacity of the already generous trunk.
I drove a U.S.-spec trim level that wasn’t as kitted-out as the GLI we get here. In Canada, the GLI will include such standard items as rain-sensing wipers, blind-spot monitoring, GPS navigation, a premium audio system, a sunroof, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, and leather upholstery.
Also in keeping with the GLI’s more mature demeanour, the cabin is quiet. There’s a bit more growl to the exhaust in Sport mode, but it’s more like background music — a reminder that there’s a bit more huff to this car, but not knocking you over the head with it.
The GLI won’t appeal to hardcore sports sedan fans; it just isn’t strong and raw enough. But those who want a performance step-up wrapped in a velvet glove will need to try it out. On this gnarly road, it’s a smoothie.

[quote:Prisoner of Technology:MV8xMjAwNTUxXzE5NTAzMjE1X0NCM0ZDNjQw] CERN black hole has punctured the crust, goodbye liquids. [/quote]
On Tuesday night 2km of the river Iska in Slovenia disappeared and left behind fish on dry ground. The residents are saying that they heard a huge bang in the night. It sounds like they are describing it as a possible earthquake-like sound although there was no tremor. One woman said that it was like a huge detonation, as if something big had crashed onto the ground. People went out of their homes to see what was falling down, only to witness the river being drained.
To make this story even more strange, last week there were devastating floods in Slovenia and this river like all others was flooding land and properties. Could it be that some strange technology is being tested here for flood defence purpose? The official explanation is that due to the karst nature of the terrain the river went underground through this tiny hole (see pictures in link below), but the residents are highly sceptical as they have never witnessed anything like that ever (bearing in mind this river has flooded many times before).
For pictures (language is Slovenian): 24ur.com...
The first part of the official news story (from link above) translates as:
"On Tuesday night the river Iska vanished between the villages of Iska Vas and Strahomer."... (Now here comes the official explanation)... "Slovene Environment Agency statement says that the water is flowing into the underground chamber underneath the water bed. This is the way the river disappears and reappers later down stream.This time this characteristic of the river is stronger because of the damages to the river bed."

Here’s a statement that may not be considered “news” to some: eating more plant-based foods and fewer animal foods may contribute to a healthier heart and cardiovascular system. Consumers may have heard about some studies on this subject or perhaps their doctor advised them accordingly. Although the correlation has been in the public subconscious, it might not have been compelling enough to modify behaviors or grocery lists...until now.
A new landmark study, published in the Journal of the American Heart Association (AHA), tied eating more plants and less meat to a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. Researchers found that adults who adhered to diets with reduced animal-based foods (least healthy group at median 5.6 servings and healthiest group at 3.6 servings per day; and red and processed meats at 1.5 and 0.8) and more healthy fruits and vegetables, compared with those who had the lowest adherence, were associated with a 16% lower risk of cardiovascular disease; about 32% lower risk of dying from a cardiovascular disease; and 18% to 25% lower risk of early death from any cause.1 The healthier group also included much lower levels of smoking and alcohol intake.
Those in the highest quintiles of the plant-based diet and pro-vegetarian diet index had higher intakes of fruits and vegetables, fiber, polyunsaturated fats, and many micronutrients, as well as lower intakes of red and processed meat and saturated fat. The authors stated, “All these characteristics can contribute to a lower risk of cardiovascular disease by lowering blood pressure and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol, reducing inflammation, and improving glycemic control.”
The researchers further concluded that in a community‐based cohort of U.S. adults without cardiovascular disease at baseline, diets consisting of more healthy fruits and vegetables and lower in animal foods were associated with a lower risk of incident cardiovascular disease, cardiovascular disease mortality, and all‐cause mortality in a general population.
As a result of these findings, there’s a good chance that more consumers will pay closer attention to their food choices, especially plant-based protein vs. animal protein.
But what about “plant-based protein,” specifically? The conclusions in the AHA study support the findings of a separate, recently-published study in Japan that suggests that the choice of dietary protein source matters for overall longevity.2
In this study, researchers followed nearly 71,000 middle-aged Japanese adults for an average of almost two decades. Compared to people who consumed the smallest amount of plant protein, participants who consumed the largest amount of plant protein were 13% less likely to die during the study and 16% less likely to die of cardiovascular causes. Overall in the study, 12,381 people died, including 5,055 from cancer, 3,025 from cardiovascular disease, 1,528 from heart disease and 1,198 from cerebrovascular disease. The study found that people who replaced just 3% of red meat with plant protein were 34% less likely to die of any cause, 39% less likely to die of cancer, and 42% less likely to die of heart disease.
It’s important to note that these studies do not show causality and more research is needed to better understand the health impacts of plant-based diets.
While the authors of these studies name foods associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease— “fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and plant proteins”—they stop just short of naming one of the most important sources of plant protein
Seeds: Among the Most Valuable Foods in a Plant-Based Diet
Seeds are one of the 10 plant-based proteins you should eat, according to McKel Kooienga, MS, RDN, LDN, the renowned registered dietitian nutritionist behind the website “Nutrition Stripped.”
“Seeds such as sunflower, sesame, chia, hemp, flax, and pumpkin seeds are all rich in both protein and minerals, earning them a slot on the list of best vegan protein foods,” she writes.
Kooienga singles out hemp seeds, No. 2 on her Top 10 list of foods, for their nutrient density.
“Hemp seeds not only contain protein but also supply plenty of heart-healthy fats, mainly Omega 3 fatty acids,” she writes. She notes that hemp seed protein contains all the essential amino acids, along with one called arginine, which helps with the production of nitric oxide, a vital molecule for a strong cardiovascular system.
Kooienga finds that hemp seeds have a “delicious, subtly sweet and nutty flavor” and says they’re so small that they can easily be added to any recipe to boost plant-protein content.
Some of her suggestions for using hemp seeds (and hemp seed protein) include sprinkling on top of salads; stirring or blending into soups or stews to slightly thicken; adding to smoothies for a creamy texture; blending into hummus, dips, or dressings; sprinkling on top of porridge, oatmeals or other cereals; or adding into baked goods and desserts for added protein.
Is there a nutrient-dense, protein-packed “superfood” missing from your ingredient list?

RCMP continue to search for a man who robbed a Sahali pizza shop at knifepoint on the weekend.
A phone call to 911 dispatched officers to the Little Caesars on Summit Drive just before 10 p.m. Friday. Sgt. Nathalie Fehr said a man walked into the shop brandishing a knife and stole a small amount of cash.
Constables set up a perimeter and searched the area with a police dog, but the suspect eluded capture, said Fehr.
She said the culprit wore winter clothing and his face was partially covered. There is no further description.
Anyone with information is asked to contact RCMP at 250-828-3000 or Crime Stoppers.

BRT recruits to help solve pit stop woes
Saturday 8th May, 2021 - 2:50pm
The Blanchard Racing Team has secured the services of two mechanics for the remainder of the 2021 Repco Supercars Championship.
The upstart Ford squad has shown promising glimpses this year but has been frustrated by slow pit stops continually stunting their progress in races.
Their case has not been helped by having different crew at every round as they gradually build up their staff base.
BRT boss Tim Blanchard has moved to rectify the situation in part, hiring two mechanics with Supercars experience to work at the race weekends to come.
“I guess one of the biggest challenges of putting a team together is the staffing side of it,” Blanchard explained to Speedcafe.com.
“Each round we have been going to we’ve had a different crew which is obviously quite challenging.
“We’ve got two guys now that are able to come to most of the events for the rest of the year which gives us a little bit of consistency.
“I guess with some consistency we can start doing some more pit stop practice and training.”
The recruitment drive is not done yet, with the team actively chasing full-time mechanics to lighten the load on the likes of race engineer Mirko De Rosa.
“Currently we have got a few engineers and some apprentices working in the team but no actual full-time mechanics,” Blanchard continued.
“We still need to fill that workshop role to help with our preparation. Mirko and Jayden [Marciano, data engineer] are doing most of the car prep as well as engineering.”
One area the team won’t be recruiting in is the driver ranks, with Tim Slade guaranteed to retain his seat for 2022.
The CoolDrive-backed team had considered expanding to two cars next year before opting not to express interest in the Racing Entitlements Contracts recently made available by Supercars due to a lack of clarity around Gen3.
Blanchard, however, remains interested in a future expansion.
The Box Hill outfit intends to stick with Ford next year but is not contractually obliged to do so.
Slade will start Race 9 of the 2021 season, at The Bend Motorsport Park this afternoon, from 14th on the grid.

Watch: Shocking Video As Neturei Karta Member Says Hamas is Not a Terrorist Organization
Protesting Israel at the Israel Day Parade in Manhattan has become a yearly occurrence for a group of Neturei Karta activists. This year, a hard hitting video reporter decided to ask a simple question, one you would imagine would have an easy answer.
Watch through the stuttering and incoherent response, before the admission that he does not believe they are a terrorist organization.
Asking a free palestine/quds day protester if Hamas is a terrorist organization. It was like pulling teeth with this guy trying to get a straight answer.

Policymaking must be based on the world we live in, not the world as it should be. Thus, we must sometimes support policies that are less than ideal.
Oklahomans are rightfully angry about the flood of illegal immigration into our nation and state. The federal government has completely failed to secure our borders and also made it extremely cumbersome to obtain legal access to this country, incentivizing lawbreaking and chaos.
But state lawmakers can mitigate the fallout. One way to reduce a share of the problems created by illegal immigration is to provide driver’s licenses to some illegal immigrants – even though that may sound counterintuitive.
Lawmakers in the Oklahoma Legislature have introduced House Bill 2114 and Senate Bill 669. Both measures would create a way for people who file taxes but are illegal aliens to receive an Oklahoma driver’s license.
The license process would involve a few small differences from the normal process. First, the associated fees would be higher than for licenses issued to citizens.
Second, the licenses would clearly indicate the holder is a nonresident, which will prevent the licenses from being used as proof of citizenship or legal residency.
Third, the license information would be reported to voter registration officials.
There are several benefits to this proposal. Only those filing income taxes – in other words, illegal immigrants who are gainfully employed – would benefit. These individuals already are driving on our roads, but they often are doing so illegally and without auto insurance. Having a driver’s license would make it easier for them to obtain insurance, and by some estimates could reduce uninsured driving in Oklahoma by up to 75%. Such a reduction would benefit all Oklahomans and drive down auto insurance costs.
The bills also provide election-security safeguards. For the first time election officials would have data on non-citizens and could ensure those individuals are not on voter rolls and illegally voting.
Killing these bills will not reduce illegal immigration but will instead perpetuate two major problems associated with illegal immigration.
In a nation where the rule of law was enforced and border security prioritized, these bills would not be necessary. But when faced with the massive failure of the federal government, Oklahomans now have a choice: Either act to reduce the harm caused by federal failure or do nothing and allow it to continue.

If you walk around in Kutupalong, you will get an urge to dismantle the set of institutions, practices, and relationships which have created the place.
You will want to do so because you will find it impossible to understand the tolerance for the kind of incoherence and injustice you will see all around you.
If you are a Bangladeshi, and you realise that this area is part of your country, you will find it hard to conceive what the incentives or inducements were or are that have led the powers that be and all the other forces to create and maintain such a place.
Even if you view Kutupalong as a stage where dramas about recent history are performed, you will question the sense of such repetitious and costly productions.
Costly in every sense.
What purpose do these serve, you will ask yourself.
Myanmar’s crimes against humanity and crimes against peace have not yet been deliberated upon properly in international fora. But who will take into account and argue that the crimes perpetrated by Myanmar are compounded in places like Kutupalong -- a place that is supposed to provide refuge for vulnerable people?
An amazing capacity abounds here for forgetting, ignoring, or bypassing what is unpleasant or inconvenient. Indeed whatever goes against the basic tenets of humanity, and of course, international law.
Let us begin with the late 70s, when the first mass exodus of more than 200,000 Rohingya refugees happened. This is what Human Rights Watch stated in their report:
“Expecting to find protection, these refugees only found further persecution by a (Bangladeshi) government that was as keen to see the back of them as their own. Over 12,000 refugees starved to death as the Bangladesh government reduced food rations in the camps in order to force them back, and following a bilateral agreement between the two governments, the majority of refugees were repatriated less than 16 months after their arrival.”
Another big exodus from Burma happened in 1991. And another set of forced repatriations took place in 1992 and 1993. It was equally merciless.
No place to call home
There were clashes between refugees and Bangladeshi authorities and there were fatalities. Those repatriated, some 50,000, could not be traced by the UNHCR three years later.
A little over a decade later, in November of 2004, over a dozen Rohingya died and scores were injured during another episode of forced repatriation from the camps of Bangladesh.
Forgetting international conventions and norms, and more tragically, the history of its own citizens, the Bangladesh government’s first defence of this action offered to the public and to the world at large was that Bangladesh was a poor country and could not possibly cope with such large numbers of refugees.
And indeed, whatever the political hue of the government of the day, the arena of discourse, reflection, and policy pronouncements has not shifted in four decades.
Its single-minded resolve is to return the Rohingya.
Over the years, the government has managed to rope in UNHCR into doing its bidding by categorising Rohingya as “economic migrants” and hence, all importantly, not asylum-seekers.
Walking around in Kutupalong, one feels melancholia because the Bangladesh government won’t have it any other way
And so it follows that the needs and vulnerabilities of those in the camps is not of concern. They need only be returned.
Surely, all this stands as one of the signal under-achievements in the annals of refugee history to have been unable to force an awareness of the shortcomings of this approach?
Local integration and settlement is anathema to repatriation. This is easy to understand.
But what is not understandable is how Sheikh Hasina, in July of 2017, can still see repatriation as an objective when all the evidence points to the fact that the root of these cyclical influxes into Bangladesh is the denial of citizenship to Rohingya in Myanmar, and the pernicious persecution they face?
The grim list
Let’s partially list these, shall we: Murder, rape, physical torture, forced relocation, herding into camps, land and property confiscation, compulsory labour, limitations on access to education, employment, and public services, restrictions on marriage, limitation on the practice of religion, the destruction of mosques etc.
In the meantime, generations of children are growing up in poverty, without opportunities, without any possibility of social mobility.You need to visit the place really to get a proper feel.
And when you see and hear the children play, their voices of course have the same pitch and key and tone of children anywhere else on the planet, and with their screams, they are telling you that they are there and that they have hope despite their maladies and malnutrition.
Freud makes a distinction between mourning and melancholia. From what I remember of my reading, mourning is when one accepts the loss and one moves on.
In melancholia, one does not accept the loss.
The loss becomes incorporated into one’s being and so one continually remembers it.
Walking around in Kutupalong, one feels melancholia because the Bangladesh government won’t have it any other way.

Formerly trained as an architect, and with a stint at Dutch firm UN Studio under his belt, creative director Jeffrey Johnson brings his architectural training and fascination to The Arrivals, creating garments named after prominent architects and engineered for city living. Johnson and his business partner Kal Vepuri have collaborated with 3M and independent Italian tanneries to create waterproof and rubberized materials, keeping in line with what Johnson calls “the requirement of function and the challenge of form.”
Emojis Double as Gargoyles
In the Dutch city of Amersfoot, on the façade of a perfectly normal brick structure, Attika Architekten emblazoned 22 emoji roundels. The commonly used text messaging symbols have traversed that formally solid line between digital and analog visual representation. What was formerly meant to quickly communicate emotional states has now been uplifted to a state of permanence once reserved for heads of state and religious icons.
Interface Takes Design Notes From the Hardworking Honeybee
The honeycomb is a masterpiece of natural engineering. Without the benefit of the human brain or design thinking, bees create functional spaces that are practical, sustainable, and beautiful. Designers are starting to replicate nature’s innovations through biomimicry, recognizing that organic systems can solve manmade problems, as well.
MIT Research Lab has unveiled small robots that attach themselves to clothes via magnets. The lab presents them as “living jewelry”, although due to limited battery life, the pieces will only live for about 45 minutes. For now, Project Kino is purely cosmetic, but in time the MIT team aims to give them a “brain of their own."
A Water Tank Becomes an Unlikely Performance Venue
After discovering an unused industrial water tank, Bruce Odland formed a group called Friends of the Tank to protect the structure from demolition. More than a hundred thousand fundraised dollars later, Odland and a team of volunteer workers converted the dilapidated structure into a performance venue. Against the odds, Odland and his avant-garde tank have been warmly welcomed in the highly conservative local community of Rangely, Colorado.
Atacama Desert Inspires Outdoor Performance Venue by Coz y Ortiz Arquitectos
There’s no better place for an outdoor performance venue than somewhere it never rains. Such is the case with the Atacama Desert, approximately 700 miles north of Santiago, Chile, where the Teatro al Aire Libre Ruinas de Huanchaca has opened. The otherworldly landscape was another influence in nearly every design decision by , which collaborated with and on the 4,200-square-foot structure seating.
With streaming services becoming larger players in the studio system, and phones that allow movie watching without the need for a computer or television, the movie theater has struggled to stay relevant. A Los Angeles startup called Dreamscape Immersive is offering one solution: a “VR Multiplex” in Century City that will offer untethered VR headsets and an open space allowing customers to interact with both virtual and real objects.
Jeff Koons and Snapchat Create First Location-Based AR Lens
Despite falling shares, Snapchat continues to unveil new app-exclusive augmented reality features, including a collaboration with Jeff Koons. The American artist lent Snapchat virtual versions of his most well-known works, including Balloon Dog, Swan, Rabbit, and Play-Doh, which are set to appear across the globe in specific locations such as Central Park, the Sydney Opera House, and Champ de Mars, essentially creating a traveling VR sculpture park. Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel presents the Koons project as an inherently democratic “art for the people” endeavor, explaining that “the fact we can bring these ginormous sculptures anywhere in the world is just the beginning of inspiring young people all over the world to create with our cameras.”
Designer Spends 10 Years Building Paper Model of a Boeing 777
For the past 10 years, Luca Iaconi-Stewart has been building a model of a Boeing 777 out of manila folders and glue. What began as a school project has transformed into a remarkable feat of research, technical know-how, and persistence. Measuring at 1/60th the size of a true 777, the model contains more than 300 non-reclining seats, retractable landing gear, and moveable wing flaps.
A new incarnation of Pelléas et Mélisande, the only opera ever completed by Claude Debussy, in 1902, is a feast for the eyes—literally. Current-day directors and choreographers and envisioned the production as a window into the human soul. “The libretto is so much about vision that we thought to make the story unfold inside an eyeball,” Jalet explains.
Poured Concrete Flooring Eliminates Disease in Bangladeshi Homes
An acronym for architecture for health in vulnerable environments, believes design can help combat disease. A recent pilot project confirms the belief. In 2014, the nonprofit launched Health From the Ground Up, an initiative to improve conditions for the disadvantaged in Southeast Asia. Upon learning that thousands of Bangladeshi children die due to parasites harbored in the dirt floors often used in their homes, the team focused on a single basic element: new flooring material. They chose poured concrete, not only easy to maintain and less likely to transmit disease but also able to be installed by local masons. A month after installation in 10 homes, post-construction surveys revealed no new infections in the children living there.

Young teenage smoking 'at record low level', Ash Scotland report suggests
Smoking among young teenagers in Scotland is at its lowest level since modern surveys began, a study suggests.
The report, by anti-smoking charity Ash Scotland, hailed the drop in 13 and 15-year-old smokers.
The smoking rate among 16 to 24-year-olds also dropped, from 26.5% in 1999 to 22% in 2012, with exposure to second-hand smoke also falling.
Despite the fall, numbers of young smokers in deprived areas remained above the national average.
The report found Scotland has just more than a million adult smokers and praised the work of the NHS and other stop-smoking services for "exceeding performance targets".
The Scottish government has said it is "committed to bold action" to reduce smoking rates and wants the country to be at the forefront of international efforts.
Legislation banning the display of cigarettes and other tobacco products in larger retailers came into force last year and will be rolled out to smaller retailers in April 2015.
It follows the ban on smoking in enclosed public places - such as pubs, restaurants and almost all workplaces - which came into place in 2006.
The government also plans to introduce plain packaging for all cigarettes.
Ash Scotland chief executive Sheila Duffy said: "This report shows we have much to be positive about. Most targets have been met, including large reductions in smoking rates among the key group of 16 to 24-year-olds."
She added: "But our new analysis also highlights areas where we must up our game if we are to be successful in putting smoking out of fashion for the next generation.
"While tobacco use has reduced among all sections of society, the large inequalities in smoking between rich and poor have remained resistant to change."
'Taken a lead'
In deprived areas the smoking rate was 36% compared with about 23% across the country, the report said.
The number of women smoking during pregnancy has fallen to almost 19%, down from 25% in 2001.
Alison Cox, Cancer Research UK's head of tobacco policy, said: "Scotland has taken a lead in the UK by setting an ambition for a smoke-free generation by 2034.
"Ash Scotland's report demonstrates strong public support for key measures to protect children from both tobacco marketing and from second-hand smoke.
"This bodes well for both for saving many young lives from a deadly addiction and putting up strong resistance to the tobacco industry's inevitable attacks."
Scottish Public Health Minister Michael Matheson said: "This report shows that Scotland's world-leading policies, such as the smoking ban and legislation to prohibit the display of cigarettes and other tobacco products in shops, are making a real and positive difference.
"However we can't be complacent about a product that still kills 13,000 Scots a year. We know that if we are to build a generation free from tobacco it is necessary to restrict the imagery and design that tobacco companies use to pull in another generation to use these addictive and lethal products.
"That is why the Scottish government will press ahead with plans to introduce plain packaging even if the UK government decides not to proceed."

Angel Robinson thinks she’s found her dream job. At the prestigious Bay Area Lucy Fiamma Literary Agency, Angel discovers a knack for finding the gems among the piles of manuscripts she diligently carts home each night—a skill that her cantankerous, eccentric, and Machiavellian boss takes full advantage of. Then Angel receives a haunting series of anonymous e-mail submissions (entitled, cheekily, Blind Submission), whose story bears a frightening resemblance to that of Angel’s own life. Such eerie insight into her life—and her suspicions as to who is behind it—are a little too close to home for Angel’s comfort.

"The author's insider knowledge provides one of the chief delights of this book: Nobody has ever written a literary agency with the authority Ginsberg brings to this one. … Entering Lucy's domain is a surreal experience." Katy Yocom
"Anyone who longs to become a professional writer would do well to read this novel because even as it stretches the boundaries of disbelief, you remember that—on the contrary—Blind Submission is right on the money." Carolyn See
"[A] cleverly told, genre-bending tale that combines intrigue, romance, a touch of mystery and strong female characters. … Book lovers will enjoy Ginsberg's dead-on look at the publishing industry." Carol Memmott
San Francisco Chronicle
"Blind Submission isn’t the best book I’ve ever read, but it may be the most cinematic. From its spunky opening sentence … to its here’s-how-everyone-turned-out codas, Debra Ginsberg’s first novel gives the impression of having been written with an eventual movie version sharply in mind." Sarah Saffian
Los Angeles Times
"[The book’s] mass-market attributes are strangely at odds with and likely to deter the tweedy reader who might otherwise look favorably upon a book that takes place in a literary agency, a setting conspicuously lacking the allure of fashion, film and Upper East Side society, the glamorous and moneyed milieus in which such tales usually unfold. … Instead of the razor-sharp and shadow-subtle observations and characterizations that distinguish successful satire, Blind Submission is all travesty and caricature, a portrait obscured by its own broad strokes." Jenny Shank
Rocky Mountain News
"The prose is cliché-ridden and on the level of a drugstore romance novel; the characters one-dimensional; the sex scenes execrable; and many of the plot twists convenient or unbelievable." Jenny Shank
For her first turn as a novelist, Debra Ginsberg, author of three acclaimed memoirs (Waiting; Raising Blaze; About My Sisters) turns a satirical eye on the publishing industry. The parallels between Lauren Weisberger’s blockbuster The Devil Wears Prada (2003) and Blind Submission are a well-worn path of inquiry in critical circles. Most reviewers agree, however, that this exposé of the publishing industry is, very appropriately, a better-written affair than the fashion-industry version. The majority of reviewers are thrilled by this backstage look at the good, the bad, and the ugly in book publishing, though a few note a weak central character and a "trashy" plot (Rocky Mountain News). Overall, fervent readers willing to wallow may enjoy this insider’s view of the publishing business.


Laser welding of aluminium materials for airframe manufacture is growing in interest, and the large aerospace companies are investing more time in this technology in an effort to replace riveting wherever possible.
Laser welding of 2XXX aluminium alloys would be the preferred route, but these alloys can be crack sensitive when welded. It is possible to use lower strength 6XXX alloys for lower fuselage panels, and this material is much easier to weld. Al-Mg-Sc alloys are now being considered for upper fuselage panels where higher strength is required.
TWI has 30 years of experience with carbon dioxide, Nd:YAG and Yb: YAG lasers, and has laser welded a wide variety of aluminium alloys for its customer base.
TWI worked with Airbus in several large collaborative projects to develop laser welding techniques. Airbus further developed the procedures and the technique is now being used in the lower fuselage panels of the A318 single aisle aircraft, the A340-600 dual aisle aircraft and the A380 very large aircraft to replace riveted structures with attendant cost savings.
TWI has carried out confidential project work for several aerospace customers, and worked in several large collaborative projects with Airbus and other partners to develop laser welding procedures for airframe manufacture.

The Integrated Task Force, set up by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) and the Hawks, is coordinating the implementation of 205 'recommendations' that came out of the Zondo Commission of Inquiry into Allegations of State Capture.
Of these, 36 recommendations have resulted in three convictions and 11 cases before the courts. The remaining 169 recommendations are still being investigated.
Deputy President Paul Mashatile was providing an update in his keynote address at the National Conference on the Integrated Criminal Justice System and Review of Criminal Procedure Act, in Johannesburg, on Tuesday.
The conference took place under the theme ‘Strengthening the criminal justice system to keep our people safe and secure’ and aimed to take stock of, and critically reflect on, the progress in the implementation of the Justice Crime Prevention and Security (JCPS) 7-Point Plan, targeted at promoting an integrated and modernised criminal justice system.
Addressing attendees, Mashatile acknowledged that confidence in South Africa’s criminal justice system was declining.
He said the system and democracy had been put to the test owing to corruption, criminality and gender-based violence and femicide (GBVF).
He noted that despite government’s strategies to combat crime, the scourge remained persistent. He also pointed to overburdened prosecution and judicial systems, overcrowded prisons and a beleaguered police system.
“Looking at these challenges, it is easy to grow despondent, but we must never be discouraged. Instead, we must double our efforts to reach our desired goal. The legal system in South Africa has undergone significant changes since the apartheid era, aiming to ensure fairness and equal opportunities for all citizens. Post-1994, changes include a National Crime Prevention Strategy, victim empowerment programmes, and a diversion programme for low-impact offenses under Pillar 1, to ensure a human rights culture. Recently, we replaced the 1996 National Crime Prevention Strategy with the Integrated Crime and Violence Prevention Strategy, approved in March 2022 by the Cabinet. This strategy focuses on preventing crime and violence through a 'whole of government’ and ‘whole of society’ approach,” Mashatile said.
Over the next few months, the JCPS will focus efforts on GBVF, corruption, creating an independent unit called the ‘Investigating Directorate against Corruption’ within the NPA, strengthening the Whistleblowers Act and revising the Criminal Procedure Act.
CONSTRUCTION MAFIAS AND UNLAWFUL ARRESTS
Mashtaile stressed the need to deal with crime in the construction sector, as it directly impacted the country’s economy.
He said the Economic Infrastructure Task Teams were dealing with non-ferrous metal theft, infrastructure crimes, and illegal mining activities.
He stressed the need to strengthen existing interventions to protect infrastructure relating to State-owned companies Eskom, Transnet, and the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa.
“A concerted effort from all is necessary to unravel the complex web of construction site disruptions, which endangers lives and impedes the government's objective of transforming the nation into a massive construction site that generates employment and expands the economy,” he said.
Crime and corruption, he said, undermined not only the rule of law, but also human rights.
Further, unlawful arrests also impacted the fundamental rights of individuals and should be reduced, the Deputy President stated.
“…it is imperative to reduce the instances of unnecessary arrests that may lead to unlawful arrests and detention. Promoting alternative methods of ensuring a suspect's court attendance, such as summons and written notices, is crucial to reduce costly civil claims against the State and address pressing needs. Ensuring these methods are more accessible to police officials, and considering greater judicial oversight over arrest is also necessary to reduce unnecessary arrests. This will indeed help the strain on the fiscus and improve the overall justice system,” he explained.
GBVF AND BAIL DEVELOPMENTS
Life imprisonment sentences relating to GBVF at Thuthuzela Care Centres had seen a 27.9% increase during the 2022/23 financial year, he revealed.
The care centres are one-stop facilities that are part of South Africa’s anti-rape strategy, and aim to reduce secondary victimisation and to build a case ready for successful prosecution.
Further, National Assembly has approved the Gender-Based Violence and Femicide Bill, which is currently under review by the National Council of Provinces.
“The government is responding swiftly to the GBVF epidemic by putting an emphasis on robust institutions and solid evidence. In late 2020, the Department of Justice introduced three amendment Bills including the Criminal and Related Matters Amendment Act 12 of 2021, the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Related Matters) Amendment Act 13 of 2021, and the Domestic Violence Amendment Act 14 of 2021. The latter Act established an electronic repository for domestic violence protection orders, which became operational on April 14, 2023,” Mashatile pointed out.
He said these laws significantly changed the legislative framework for GBV, emphasising the need for an effective and efficient criminal justice system to fight GBVF.
Following public outcry, the Department of Justice and the South African Law Reform Commission are reviewing the process to strengthen bail laws to make it harder for people to be released on bail.
The review process aimed to ensure that victims’ needs were prioritised and also aimed to reduce overcrowding in prisons and detention centres, Mashatile said.
IMMIGRATION, REFUGEE PROTECTION
There is misalignment between the Citizenship Act, Immigration Act, and Refugees Act, the Deputy President admitted, and he noted the need to evaluate the laws and create new ones to deal with illegal immigration.
He said the recently approved Cabinet White Paper on Citizenship, Immigration, and Refugee Protection would set the framework for residency and citizenship approvals for foreign nationals, and for protecting the rights of refugees and asylum seekers, all while protecting South Africa’s national security.
