I quote from my journal with slight editing.
Trip to Toledo today. I was a bit upset by how things were run, and it represents a trend of neglect by the Mester language school that is ticking a few people off. Usually we've had the culture teacher as our guide, so while at times a bit dry, she treated us well and we had enough time at each site to be able to learn quite a bit. Today, there was a different lady plus some unknown dude who acted as our guides…. First we went to El Museo de la Santa Cruz, which someone told me used to be a hospital. There was some Visigodo stuff and a neat courtyard; but, we walked through so fast and with so little context that I can tell you no more than that.
We saw a statue of Cervantes, blazed through a synagogue-turned-museum (too fast, once again), went to way too many stores, and saw the outside doors only of the cathedral. The only part I really enjoyed was when we had maybe two hours of free time and the weather turned just a tad rainy and I walked with some folks along the gorge cliff of the Río Tajo—pretty!
Overall, disappointed. How do you say that in Spanish?
The answer is estar desilusionado. Toledo is cool, we just had a sub-optimal experience there. Spain is super pretty! It reminds me a lot of eastern Washington, even down to the wind generator turbines up on the horizon. By the way, I picked up something for Mike there….
I'm giving you a picture of my roommate, Chris, as well [apparently flipping off the world]. He's got a bit of "gangsta" blood in 'em, in case you can't tell in the photo.
This Sunday we went to the Salamanca branch's meetings. I was amazed by how few times I got lost paying attention to the talks and lessons.

I'm sorry you didn't get to see all that you wanted to. I'm excited to see what you got for Mike!


Now that Iggy's back to making music, it means we're getting rhythmic motion in the Australian import's regularly scheduled thirst trapping.
That was basically the premise to the video for her new Tyga-featured track "Kream".
This evening, Iggy's Instagram page took us to the rehearsals for that video.
#Kream video link in my bio !
A little BTS of me and the girls rehearsal for the #Kream video.
While they say practice makes perfect, Iggy was already pretty darn good during practice.

Q: in awk facing issues while using variable as search pattern while searching in a file date;
tocompdate=$(date --date="-90 days ago" +%d%m%Y)
echo $tocompdate;

awk -v pattern="$testdate" '{print "Some matter "nr[NR--]" matter "$testdate""};' tocompare.txt >> mail2sent.txt`

Here I am taking current date and adding 90 days to it and storing it in tocompdate. And comparing tocompdate with a file, where same date is present in a line and some other matter in other line before that line.
while search pattern is matched I need some text to be printed and "the line before matched line" to be printed and again matched line after few words.
For example:
File has below content
a1
28112019
b2
04032018
c3
04032018
d4
27072015
e5
27072015
f6
06012030

If I am comparing with 27072015, I want output as below
The d4 is on 27072015
The e5 is on 27072015

A: $ awk -v tgt="27072015" '$0==tgt{printf "The %s is on %s\n", p, $0} {p=$0}' file
The d4 is on 27072015
The e5 is on 27072015

A: I propose a solution using only shell programming:
#!/bin/sh

match="27072015"

while IFS= read -r i
do if [ "$i" = "$match" ]
   then printf "The %s is on %s\n" "$last" "$match"
   fi
   # test that we are not in a whitespace
   if [ -n "$i" ]
   then last="$i"
   fi
done < tocompare.txt

Note: This solution is only appropriate for very small and simple data sets without special characters. Additionally it's much slower than using awk.

A: Just for fun: Another solution using sed, grep and xargs
xargs -n 2 <file | grep -E '\b27072015$' | sed -r 's/^(\S+)\s(\S+)$/The \1 is on \2/g'

you get,

The d4 is on 27072015
The e5 is on 27072015

Al Fardan Exchange Steps Up to Support Children's Cancer Hospital in Egypt
Dubai, UAE, January 19, 2023 – Al Fardan Exchange L.L.C, the leading money transfer and currency exchange firm, licensed and regulated by the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is proud to announce that it will donate EGP1m to the Children's Cancer Hospital Egypt 57357 (CCHE), also known as Hospital 57357. In addition, all Al Fardan Exchange branches will provide free of charge transfers to the 57357 Children's Cancer Hospital Foundation until 31st March, 2023.
Hospital 57357 is unfortunately in danger of having to limit its ongoing work due to a lack of donations and funding combined with increasing costs due to inflation and other financial burdens on the hospital which have continued to worsen. The decline in funding has come hand in hand with exchange rate fluctuations, most notably the exponential rise of the United States' Dollar in comparison to the Egyptian Pound. This has resulted in tripling the cost of treatment.
This is compounded by the drop in the number of donations made during this period which have plummeted by around 80 percent, in comparison to previous years. This has prompted Hospital 57357 to liquidate its final deposit in order to treat 18,000 children.
Hasan Fardan Al Fardan CEO of Al Fardan Exchange said: "We believe in the wonderful efforts being undertaken by the Children's Cancer Hospital Egypt 57357 and are proud to support the work they do by making this contribution, but also by encouraging others to support the hospital which is why we are making any transfer made to Hospital 57357 though Al Fardan Exchange free of charge. We are proud to say we are the first exchange house in UAE to offer this."
"Al Fardan Exchange is committed to supporting Hospital 57357 and encouraging the community to donate, so that the hospital can continue to provide free treatment services to save the largest number of patients. Through this donation and the provision of free of charge transfers, Al Fardan Exchange hopes to aid the hospital in overcoming its current challenges and continuing to serve the community," he added.
Hospital 57357 is a unique healthcare institution and an ultimate example of what can be achieved when people work together for a common goal. The people of Egypt and their friends from all over the world, particularly in the Arab World, have contributed generously to the establishment of the hospital which has been completely built by voluntary donations. Egyptians from all walks of life rallied around the setting up of this state-of-the-art pediatric oncology hospital to achieve the dream of a better tomorrow for their children with cancer.
Not only is this project attempting to increase the childhood cancer survival rate in Egypt from less than an estimated 40% to the Western rates of 75-80% overall survival, it is also attempting to create a new system of healthcare where management and treatment utilize the most scientific approaches practiced today. Presently, after 14 years of operations the Hospital is recording a 71% average overall survival rate. It has become not merely a hospital but a leading example for healthcare, a change agent, and a comprehensive institution for fighting childhood cancer.

I want to urge you to consider membership in the AMA because your membership in AMA gives us a voice.
The American Medical Association is one organization that the AAOA works through to advocate for issues related to the AAOA. As a national specialty society, your membership in the AMA is what gives us our seat — which gives us a voice on your behalf. This seat goes beyond our AMA House of Delegates delegation. It gives us a seat at CPT, RUC, and PERC as well. Without a seat in the AMA, we would not be able to participate in these other regulatory bodies.
Through our involvement in the AMA, we have been able to collaborate with AAAAI and ACAAI to oppose change in the proposed changes to USP 797 concerning physician allergy compounding that was put forth 2 years ago. Those joint efforts resulted in halting the change in USP policy and causing USP to revamp recommendations. USP 797 and issues around physician compounding at the FDA are key examples of issues where AAOA's participation in national coalitions and working with AMA have been instrumental in helping to assure you can deliver quality care.
Through this advocacy effort and the work of our Socioeconomic Committee, we were invited two years ago by the ACAAI leadership to participate on its Advocacy Council of the ACAAI. Again, broadening our voice and impact on allergy patient care.
Our AMA seat does broaden our opportunities in the House of Medicine. Networking is key in managing issues at the AMA. Your AAOA delegation is actively involved in the Chest/Allergy Caucus. In fact, we will chair this caucus beginning in 2019. This caucus brings together all the specialties involved in airway management — Chest, Thoracic, Sleep, Allergy, Critical Care, and Pulmonology. In the House, this caucus has been instrumental in joining forces on issues around physician compounding, tobacco, allergy, food allergy and labeling, over-the-counter medications, and many others.
We also sit on the Otolaryngology Section Council with our peer societies within otolaryngology — AAOHNS, AAFPRS, Triologic, and now ARS — as well as all the otolaryngologists who represent their states in the House of Medicine. Coalescing these key delegates helps assure specialty interests and state interests are considered together to help achieve better results.
As a specialty society in the AMA House, we have a seat in the Specialty and Service Section, which gives us the opportunity for multiple specialty societies to unite on issues.
The AMA 2018 Interim House of Delegates meeting is just ending in Washington, DC. Several key issues tied to tobacco, food allergy, CMS, E/M coding, CHIP reauthorization, and more were considered. The Chest/Allergy caucus was effective in bringing an emergency resolution regarding the FDA's recent (11/6) decision to put Primatene Mist, an antiquated medication, back on the market as an over-the-counter product to treat mild and intermittent asthma. While originally pulled due to its delivery mechanism impacting the ozone layer, Primatene Mist, a nonspecific beta agonist or epinephrine, has not been defined as a therapeutic pathway of choice for the management of asthma in any national or international asthma guideline. Risk of patient self medication, cardio-vascular risk, and payor issues were all flagged as potential bad, unintended outcomes of pushing Primatene Mist back on the market. Additionally, issues were raised regarding the FDA process and lack of a public comment period to allow for input, and the AMA will take action with the FDA to urge them to reconsider their decision.
So while you may not always agree with the AMA on issues or want to add yet another dues to your professional costs, our seat is tied to our membership numbers in AMA. Specialty societies are required to have at least a 20% AMA membership to have a seat. Your membership in AMA gives us a voice — both on issues with which we agree with AMA and those with which we do not. Please consider becoming a member of the AMA so we can maintain our seat in the AMA in 2019.

By Whitney Webb Whitney Webb @_whitneywebb
Just weeks after announcing a plan to arm the Ukrainian government with lethal weapons, the Pentagon announced on Friday that Secretary of Defense James Mattis – who has endorsed the plan – will be traveling to Ukraine this coming week in order to reassure the government in Kiev that the U.S. is "firmly committed to the goal of restoring Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity."
Though the Trump administration is still well less than a year old, it has become clear that Mattis gets what he wants, especially given his assumption of far-reaching war powers once reserved for the President. This, of course, makes the likelihood of the U.S. arming Ukraine increasingly likely.
While the official reasons for the U.S.' justification in arming Ukraine are wrapped in the usual cloak of "humanitarianism" and fending off "Russian aggression," it is hardly a coincidence that the plan to send lethal weapons to the government in Kiev coincides with the U.S.' reluctant winding-down of involvement in the six-year-long conflict in Syria — a conflict often treated as a U.S.-Russia proxy war. This begs the question: Is the U.S. government, led by Mattis, seeking to ignite a new proxy war against Russia, this time on their doorstep?
Wading into ethnic-cleansing waters

Mattis' visit comes amid an uptick in violence in Ukraine's internal conflict, which dates back to the U.S.-backed coup of 2014 that saw the right-wing billionaire Petro Poroshenko installed as President along with the ascendancy of Ukraine's Neo-Nazi and ultra-nationalist parties — Right Sector and Svoboda, respectively – to political prominence.
Since the coup, the new ruling powers of Ukraine have engaged in a campaign to target Ukraine's eastern regions, where Russian culture and language are strong, as they do not conform to the ultra-nationalism espoused by the post-coup government in Kiev.
The region at the heart of the current conflict, the Donbass, falls completely within Poroshenko's counter-terrorism zone, despite the fact that it is home to more than 5 million people who are now branded terrorists by the government in Kiev. Poroshenko's government has been supported in this counter-terrorism operation by the U.S., which has given non-lethal aid and military training to the Ukrainian military over the last few years. However, this is now set to change with the Pentagon's push to deliver "lethal weaponry" — including anti-aircraft weapons and Javelin missiles — to the Ukrainian government.
The government campaign to quell the civilian uprising in the Donbass region has been brutal, claiming over 10,000 lives according to UN estimates cited by the Wall Street Journal. The Ukrainian government has been rather frank regarding the intentions of this operation, stating that it specifically targets civilians in order "to clean the cities."
Clean the cities of what exactly? According to an interview aired by the U.S.-funded, pro-government Ukrainian news channel Hromadske TV, the Donbass is home to around 1.5 million people "who are superfluous" and "must be exterminated." These "superfluous" Ukrainian citizens were called "subhumans" in 2016 by then-Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk, also dubbed "Washington's man in Ukraine."
Watch | Ukrainian journalist Bogdan Boutkevitch, in an interview with Hromadske TV, states "there is a certain category of people that must be exterminated" in the Donbass region of Ukraine.
Given the stated intention to literally "exterminate" over a million of its people, it is hardly surprising that there has been an uprising in Donbass seeking to stop the planned genocide against them. The forces battling the ethnic cleansing of their people are mostly from the local population, bolstered by Cossack forces as well as volunteers from Russia. The Russian government's influence is minimal, despite Western and Ukrainian media narratives, as Russian President Vladimir Putin has publicly stated that the Donbass must remain part of Ukraine and has rejected requests from separatists in the region to become part of Russia.
Yet now, with the U.S. seeking to arm the Ukrainian government in their ethnic cleansing campaign, the violence is undoubtedly set to escalate, with civilian deaths certain to result. Though the Pentagon claims that the lethal weaponry it plans to provide is "defensive" in nature, Mattis' plan to visit — and its stated purpose of reassuring Ukraine of the U.S. commitment to restoring Ukraine's "territorial integrity" — makes it clear this is not the case. Instead, it shows that the U.S. seeks to enable the Ukrainian government to bring not only the Donbass, but also Crimea, into the fold of the government in Kiev. This, after all, is Poroshenko's stated goal.
Trading a botched proxy war for a "better" one

The Pentagon's decision to arm the Ukrainian government is well-timed, given that it coincides with the Trump administration's decision to stop arming the radical Wahhabists that comprise the "moderate opposition" in Syria seeking to oust its democratically-elected president, Bashar al-Assad.
Given the Syrian government's ability to make major gains against these "rebels" and Daesh (ISIS), as well as the West's repeated failures to justify a foreign military intervention, the U.S. has been all but forced to give up its dreams of provoking Russia via the six-year-long proxy war fought in Syria over regional oil and gas interests. High-ranking officials in the Syrian government have recently declared the war in Syria "effectively over."
With the curtain closing in Syria, Washington needs a new proxy war. Given that containing Russia is the ultimate goal – as it is with China – what better way to step up the pressure than by sending lethal arms to a rabidly anti-Russian, U.S.-backed government in Kiev that is determined to ethnically cleanse Russians? Ukraine, after all, is right on Russia's border; and the Crimea region, which Poroshenko is determined to return to his control, is now a part of Russia.
However, choosing Ukraine for a new proxy war is more than just convenient. The Washington establishment knows exactly what they are getting into as this has nearly happened once before. In 2015, several U.S. senators — led by John McCain — along with then-Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter, pushed to arm the Ukrainian government with lethal weapons.
Russia's response at the time paints a very clear picture of what could be expected if the U.S. plan to give Ukraine lethal weapons comes to pass. Following the push for sending weapons to Ukraine, Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister, Sergei Ryabkov, told Interfax news agency that U.S. arms supplies to Ukraine would result in a "dramatic outcome" that Russia "will not ignore." He also stated that Russia would not be able to "stay aside" in the conflict if the U.S. followed through with its promise of providing lethal aid to Kiev.
In terms of what this "dramatic outcome" could entail, the events of 2015 offered two possibilities. Western analysts asserted that the U.S.' arming of the Ukrainian government would be "matched by Russian arms to rebels," creating the pretext for another long-running proxy war with opposing sides armed by either the U.S. or Russia.
However, Russian legislators struck a different tone, with one MP arguing that a move to arm Kiev by the U.S. should be met with Russia sending troops or "using military force" to keep the situation from becoming "too dangerous" to Russia. In addition, The Moscow Times cited Russian defense analysts, including current members of the Ministry of Defense, who asserted that Washington's attempts to arm Ukraine would be seen as a "declaration of war."
Having failed in Syria, the elements of the U.S. political establishment hell-bent on provoking Russia by any means necessary have decided to take their proxy war straight to Russia's doorstep. Unfortunately, a proxy-war conflict in Ukraine will likely garner greater support for U.S. intervention than Syria ever did. Years of fear-mongering by NATO and the Western media about a "Russia invasion" of Ukraine, the "annexation" of Crimea, and the current Russiagate election-meddling "scandal" have certainly greased the wheels for a new proxy war theater — one significantly easier to sell to the U.S. public than was the effort to oust Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

Q: My grandma believed that the Sun "revolves" or "revolved" around the Earth? We all know that universal statements are always in present tense. For example,

My grandma did not believe that the Earth revolves around the Sun.

Here, though the sentence is in past tense, Earth revolves around the Sun remains in simple present tense.
But in case of a false belief that is contrary to a universal truth, does the above rule apply similarly? For example,

My grandma believed that the Sun revolves around the Earth.

Will this sentence be taken as grammatically correct? Shouldn't it be "My grandma believed that the Sun revolved around the Earth"?

A: Yes, your sentence is grammatically correct:

My grandma believed that the sun revolves around the earth.

But I disagree that "universal truths are always in present tense". On the contrary, it is perfectly fine to say:

My grandma did not believe that the earth revolved around the sun.

preserving the proper coordination of tenses.

A: The default position for a reported clause is for the present tense to become the past tense. Where the emphasis is on the circumstances in the reported clause continuing, the present tense may sometimes be found. However, even if the circumstances are unchanged, the past tense may still be used. It would be quite in order to write both 'My grandma did not believe that the earth revolved around the sun' and 'My grandma believed that the sun revolved around the earth'.

Victorian woman has had a gutful of Andrews and his rampant, cruel lockdown treachery
https://australianloyalresistance.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/carla-vic-covid-exposed-17-07-2021.mp4
THE fury and frustration shows on the face of this 35-year-old businesswoman, Carly Söderström, a photographer from Torquay, Victoria, Australia, who says she's on the brink of breakdown because the power-crazed and corrupted premier Andrews and his gang of bureaucratic thugs has locked Victoria down for a fifth time.
Only a mentally deranged state leader would relentlessly attack and cause serious harm to some 10,000 businesses, described by Bill Lang of Small Business Australia as "bleeding". He says some 100,000 business owners across the nation have been forced to sell their homes to keep afloat.
Victoria's power-drunk premier who is systematically destroying small business and the middle class, generally.
But Dan and his crew of state-wreckers personally pick and choose who can stay open and it's mostly those activities that employ people under the control of his union thug mates. People like Carly don't matter, or those who she works for, like the young couples getting married.
The Liberal Party, whose traditional constituents are the small business operators, has been caught flat-footed by this organised war on the middle class by the CCP, the World Economic Forum, the Gates-Rockefeller crowd and so on. The Libs, like fools, have been running with the lockdown-and-vaccinate agenda pushed by these global corporate elites. They're scared of challenging the narrative and the best they can come up with is welfare like ScoMo's tax breaks of special "COVID support".
Carly is furious with the hypocrisy and double standards of the criminally negligent Andrews, Australia's spearhead destroyer of small business and the families that run them. She is bitterly betrayed by a government running a giant social engineering project based on a bunch of lies that half the population is now aware of.
This is not the first time she has spoken up for the plight of the small business community that Andrews is deliberately trying to destroy on behalf of his big corporate bosses including the Chinese Communist Party. You want products and services? Andrews and his corrupt circle keep the big guys like Woolies and Coles and a few other big corporates open. His union buddies get to keep mowing lawns for councils or keeping big building projects alive, while successful private franchises like Jim's Mowing are maliciously shut down.
Cairns News has heard of union officials saying "we don't give a stuff about the rest of them" because they got a good deal with their boy Dan. Jim's Mowing, understandably, is suing the Andrews regime for $60 million. The sane regime is also being pursued for a similar amount by Ian Cook, whose food manufacturing and supply business iCook Foods was destroyed by a brazen lie spoken out on media by the despicable little grub Bret Sutton who continues to make a fantastic living telling lies.
All this, as the power-drunk Andrews, back from a three-month "recovery", has just kicked the people of the state of Victoria in the guts again. They were on a recovery path from 10 months of crippling lockdowns but are now back in so-called "Snap Lockdown" on the basis of some fraudulent PCR-tested "case".
But did the power and money-corrupted lunatic learn anything during his enforced holiday? Apparently not. He's back, drunk again on his dictatorial powers to cripple a state simply by issuing a decree, faithfully repeated by his media sycophants at the ABC, The Age, the Herald-Sun and the TV channels. Yes, "Snap Lockdown". You get the idea? The Glorious Leader snaps his fingers and the state shuts down. Oh ain't that sort of power sublime eh Danny Boy?
Small businesswoman Carly meanwhile, was encouraged for a while when her last letter to the Victorian government went viral. What else does a decent citizen do but write to the political leaders of the state when things are desperate. But Dan, like his union big shots, doesn't give a stuff.
Carly soon learned the reality. "Whilst I'm incredibly grateful and if I'm honest, a little overwhelmed with how viral my own letter to the Vic Government has gone, it doesn't change my circumstance. I'm still out of work, without support and desperate to build momentum in my business again," she wrote on her social media page.
"My voice is just one of countless Victorians suffering right now. My inbox is full of stories from others in a similar circumstance to me. I refuse to sit back and watch this government run our incredible state into the ground. We have one of the most diverse cultural hubs in the country, full of talented creatives who have been ignored in their pleas.
"I speak for us, but also those in the fitness, beauty, entertainment and hospitality industry. This conversation must continue. This must be discussed at dinner tables across Australia tonight, because these politicians are slaves to their public image. They need to know you're angry and they need to hear it repeatedly."
In another reflective moment she wrote: "What I would do, to be able to jump on a plane and go literally anywhere away from this rapidly deteriorating, southern state, Victoria. I'm sure I'm not alone in this sentiment, but watching corruption, negligence and incompetence erode everything that makes Victoria an incredible place, whilst people delude themselves thinking it's "for our health" is breaking my heart."

if everyone just said>> we will not do this……..
he is getting away with his actions , because people are doing what they are told like children!
Remember……." MANDATE" is simply just a " REQUEST"
If LOCK DOWNS are IN LAW that is referent
they can request that people jump into a lake!………..
Once you agree with the REQUEST that is a Contract of acceptance
Am I right Ed ?

Andrews, Sutton, Gunner and Morrison should have been executed long before now for their numerous crimes against humanity. Why are they still breathing and getting away with their crimes?
Dean Allen | October 15, 2021 at 6:32 pm
Used to live in Vic now in the U.K. I thought things were bad here but have watched developments in Victoria and NSW with dismay and sadness. Andrews is seemingly intoxicated by a false mandate, the root of which I cannot discern. The carefully manufactured, yet clearly false impression of competence belies a man deeply out of his depth.
Another thing, I remember well the beating I got from Victorian police for the crime of not wearing a bicycle helmet in 2004. Always been a shy individual on the right side of the law but in my view both the NSW and Victorian state/s- and the police represent dumb yet organised thuggery.

I don't believe for one second that our votes count.
This is all by design, fruit I'll start to finish
Now that ppl are dropping dead from the jab, they are going to ramp up their attack on us by using the UN Army to force vaccinate door to door & if that wasn't bad enough they are going to take everything we have, including children & kill us in Fema camps.
F*#$ this shit. We are sitting ducks just waiting to killed by them.

Pick your analogy. The enemy is within? The barbarians are inside the gate? Or maybe another? Regardless, communism is here. And it's been here… and they're a domestic enemy more formidable that any foreign enemy we've ever faced.
And we know why. They're more formidable because, for years we've been betrayed… by our government, our media, and multiple global entities, both private and corporate. Foreign interests control Washington DC.
At the 24:00 mark Joe Dan goes after the corrupt media in the US and then shares the following:
I want to offer a special salute to Jim and Joe Hoft at The Gateway Pundit. These guys are patriots and if you want to see the most up to date headlines that matter, headlines that matter, you can use that, especially on the stole election and the forensic audits. Gateway Pundit is the place to go.

Once again Kev you putting the pieces of the puzzle that I am missing. This is the big picture now.
I found on Bitchute that Australia Army is designing a War Plan for Toxic inoculations to ramp up appears was on 7 News just could not find that story and search engines not bringing up the results.
https://www.bitchute.com/video/jqUHDDGFrs61/
Last year I read that there were 5,000 USA Marines in Darwin training and now makes sense why with 5,000 Marines maybe more arrived and the War Plan it would tie in with Stage 5 Martial Law Lockdowns so does happen we will be Prisoners in our own home unless get the Toxic Injection and die a painful death very slowly some much faster. WTF are we suppose to do then 😱😱😱
Kev your spot on with this that Paramedics would know what's happening that TGA is not willing to report and let's just say everyone has had this toxic Bioweapon inoculations will be regretting it some straight away others down the track because there is no coming back from it. Lately been seeing and hearing so many Ambulances more than usual also there as an ad on all networks about thinking twice to go to Emergency and only go if it's pretty much life and death. Now all makes sense the life and death at Emergency is from the inoculations.

If Covid-19 does exist it is covert and not overt amongst the many crowns in the Corona range.
19 stands for slaughter in the kabbalah.
On the occult meaning of the term COVID. A succinct incursion into pattern recognition.
Dolly the cloned from DNA sheep –
…………….COVID -19 is supposed to be an acronym coming from Corona Virus Disease and the year it was first registered, 2019. However, what happens if we investigate COVID according to the above-mentioned Dolly/ Ylod/ ???? algorithm? Chances are that the inverted Hebrew letters would not return anything meaningful, right? After all Dolly could have been only a bizarre coincidence. Well, coincidence or not, according to the same rule,COVID becomes DIVOC transcribed as ????? in Hebrew[20]and it actually means something – it means possession by an evil spirit.(The word is transcribed into English as dybbuk, b and v being represented through the same Hebrew character, Bet – ?). To better understand what a dybbuk is we will submit to no less of an authority as professor Yoram Bilu, professor of sociology and anthropology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and recipient of the prestigious Israel Award in 2013. According to Bilu:
"The term dybbuk (dibbuq) was used in Jewish mystical circles to designate a spirit of a dead person, a notorious sinner in his lifetime, that took temporary possession of a human being (…) dybbuk possession was always conceived as an affliction or an illness and the possessing agent a foreign, dangerous intruder that had to be expelled. (…) The exorcist was always a revered rabbi who confronted the spirit with various religiously informed measures used in a fixed, graded order[21]."……….

The Zombie Apocalypse Is Here! (Video)
Today, we live in a very interesting time because all over the world people are waking up and becoming more alive. Unfortunately, most people are still spiritually asleep and acting like reanimated corpses, also known as zombies. The evidence of this can be found in many words that people use on a regular basis.

Can governments mandate vaccination?
The position of governments at national or state and territory level is nuanced.
Public authorities have the ability to implement policies that make vaccination mandatory for discrete purposes. For example, the Commonwealth "No Jab No Pay" policy makes eligibility for certain social security payments dependent upon vaccination. State-based "No Jab No Play" policies limit access to childcare services.
These policies allow for a limited number of approved exemptions at the national level, with some variation at state level.
Government may legitimately pursue such policies for public health reasons, and may do so in rolling out a COVID-19 vaccine. Governments cannot force vaccination on individuals who chose to refuse it, as acknowledged in the Australian COVID-19 Vaccination Policy. However, they can effectively punish people for refusal – as with "No Jab No Pay" – with incentives for vaccination then working as forms of compulsion.
It is also important to distinguish between individual healthcare and public health. In Australia, informed consent, whether express or implied, is an essential pre-requisite of individual healthcare treatment. Administering medical treatment in the absence of informed consent exposes healthcare professionals to both civil and criminal liability. The requirement of informed consent protects an individual's right to bodily integrity.
The exception is in situations of emergency, when doctors can provide treatment in the absence of consent. There is no general definition of emergency but the treatment must be necessary and not merely convenient. These interventions are limited to situations in which the patient lacks capacity to provide consent………………………."

As of 2021 Australia not going through a Pandemic now its a Casedemic, IMHO because ScoMo wants to reach 80% of Australian residents to willingly accept the Experimental Gene Therapy inoculations and every Lockdown pushes more across the line to accept the toxic injection. Those who do are dumb as an Ox its not going to stop the Lockdowns until 80% target has been achieved.
I read an article from Health Impact News from Dr David Martin states there is no such thing as a Delta Variant.
The original research into these vaccines was for veterinary purposes, rabbits and canines, and then was used in 2002 and later by Anthony Fauci and the U.S. National Institute of Health for AIDS vaccine research. DARPA then got involved for applications as a "bioweapon."
When Anthony Fauci originally tried to get a patent on an mRNA vaccine for HIV, he was rejected by the patent office, because his mRNA vaccine did not meet the legal definition of a "vaccine."
It is a biological weapon.
Can read the rest from here and watch the Interview on Rumble

You have to get these bastards from every angle you can, & one example is through the courts system if lucky, however we all know they(judges) all sold out.These people are satanic literally, & what would really make them uncomfortable if they knew that you know that the majority were all involved in secret satanic rituals to sacrifice us, we the people to their evil god baphomet whom they pay homage to. Truly we the people should hold public mock funerals of all of them and watch them totally freak out like you wouldn't believe, because then they would know we know their own game, it would be like attacking their Achilles' heel, First you do it publicly during the next protest march, carry a coffin naming the person on it so the people can see it and ask questions and tell them this is for real, we want them removed..LOL you may even get a permit to hold a state funeral for the living premiers.wouldn't that be funny?
Just by simply doing this would bring something else to the table, especially if they close that type of ceremony down, People would question the politicians personal beliefs as in faith. etc. This is what Trump does, gets them to deny any involvement in such matters(e.g. satanic) on record, and boom when it comes out they are, they have no leg to stand on.

The governments have made themselves our enemy, and are endeavouring to take full control of over our lives, families, thoughts, speech, actions and freedoms. Are we willing to let this happen without putting up a fight for what we hold dear…

Morrison is only a puppet being used by the Great Reset..He has shown that he has no power over the states…they do their own thing.He is also on the same page as Andrews, but to a lesser degree as an election is due early next year.If he is re–elected, things will become far worse.

You are spot on , this Andrews is a disgrace to this state in my opinion, if he wants communism him and his co horts should go live in china , our soldiers who fought communism in Korea and Vietnam would be horrified to see communism in our country to day. When election time comes stop and remember the damage the Libs and Labour have done to our once great lucky country, we need to give the alternative parties more power to keep these psychopaths in check, vote Labour or Liberal you vote for the same animal do a company search on Pecker Maroo and find out who controls this country.

The hospital would not let me see her..AT ALL! They escorted me physically out of the building to get me to stop insisting to see her.
3 of my daughters peers also tried to commit suicide…one of them succeeded in their attempt and died….SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD!!!
I will not let this have happened in vain…Andrews will pay for his insane and grotesque crimes against humanity!!!
Daniel Andrews and his malicious thug party of criminals are DEFINITELY going to pay for all the damage they have caused this state.
They will never have a moment of peace while this continues.

Society never absolutely prohibits homicide: there are "grey areas" in which it is sometimes tolerated or even encouraged. Moral discussion of each area is usually carried on in isolation from the others, and perhaps for this reason, frequently ignores or underestimates the complexities of the morality of killing. This thesis attempts to identify a general method for analysing such issues, so that they can enrich one another. A contemporary theological survey indicates that there should be a balance in Christian ethical method between the polar values of obedience in respect of general standards, and freedom to exercise individual responsibility. This implies recognising a place for intuitions, and specifying a way in which these can be subjected to criticism. In contrast, the Sanctity-of-Life Principle seeks to impose a universal prohibition on the killing of "innocent" human beings. While the Principle provides a useful general guideline, it is deficient as a moral norm - partly because of fatal difficulties associated with the concept of innocence. The method adopted in this thesis is that suggested by Philip Wagaman: methodological presumptions are identified and then tested in a utilitarian way. For the ethics of homicide, I propose a primary presumption favouring the preservation of life, and various secondary and linguistic presumptions. The contextual framework of the thesis is limited to two specific issues - abortion and revolutionary violence.

For 20 years we have been privileged to work alongside some of the largest businesses in the World. Typically we would travel to them, stay with them for a few days and help them deliver a perfect solution for their business. Feedback for this over the years has been excellent, however we recognise that it is not always practical for our clients to wait until we can arrive and for each session to last a minimum of a full day in order to justify the travel logistics.
That is why we are launching our new service... where you can recruit the services of a Blueprint Consultant on an hourly, or even half hourly basis.... Just call us up and lets have a Skype for Business or FaceTime meeting via an IPad or PC.
Think of it, you are a Commercial Executive, you are suddenly faced with a challenge from a major customer that could prove to be an opportunity or a disaster. You would like the benefit of talking it through with an experienced business consultant, ideas are discussed, a plan develop and two heads are always better than one.
The cost... very little as we charge literally by the half hour.

I HAVE ISSUES
Shredder opens the gates of Arkham Asylum in Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #5.
Merriell Moyer
merriellmoyer@ldnews.com
Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #5
Written by James Tynion IV
Art by Freddie E. Williams II
Colors by Jeremy Colwell
Co-published by DC Comics and IDW Publishing
Shredder opens the gates of Arkham Asylum in Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #5, but there is a catch for any villain who wants out.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, thanks to an incident that occurred during a battle with the alien Krang, were united with Batman in Gotham City. However, Shredder and an army of Foot Ninjas also came through to Batman's world.
In issue #5, the Caped Crusader and the Heroes in Half-Shells have teamed up to see what they can do about Shredder and his army. The book opens with Batman, Leonardo and Raphael meeting with Commissioner Jim Gordon and Penguin – an unlikely ally and informant who feels Shredder is going too far.
Penguin tells Batman that Ra's al Ghul and the League of Assassins are looking to join forces with Shredder and the Foot Clan, a partnership Penguin feels Batman should have seen coming.
As Batman, Leonardo and Raphael begin their journey back to the Batcave, Leonardo falls to the ground as the mutagen in his bloodstream begins to wear off, a side-effect of being in an alternate dimension. Meanwhile, back at the Batcave, Donatello, Michelangelo and Casey Jones faceoff against Robin, Damian Wayne, who is more than a little agitated at having found a couple of mutants and a guy in a mask – who is not Batman – in Bat HQ.
The book ends with Shredder throwing open the gates of Arkham Asylum, but the villains from Batman's rogue's gallery who are taking advantage of the security breach look a tad different than usual.
James Tynion IV, who has written for Batman before – he co-wrote the "Night of the Owls" storyline for the New 52 re-launch and was a head writer for the "Batman Eternal" title among others – does a wonderful job with the script despite the use of the tired dimensional travel trope. There is plenty of humor, and the decaying of the Turtles' mutagens is a nice addition to the plot that adds both urgency and a good excuse to send the Turtles back to their own dimension once the conflict is over.
As for the humor, a good example is in the opening pages when Commissioner Gordon meets the Turtles for the first time. Initially, Gordon asks Batman if he has anymore headaches hiding in his gauntlets for him, to which Raphael responds, "We look like headaches to you?" Gordon mutters, "Just close your eyes and think about retirement. Somewhere warm where the giant turtles don't talk."
The script is well-paced, and, again, even though it uses some tired tropes it is still entertaining, especially for readers who are fans of these two franchises.
In a franchise crossover like this one, the art has to be spot-on to please both fan-bases, and the art team of Freddie E. Williams II, artist, and Jeremy Colwell, colors, does not disappoint. Both Batman and the Turtles have their fair share of grit and shadow in their individual titles, and Williams and Colwell capture that gritty feel nicely.
While there are many art highlights in this issue, it should come as no surprise that arguably the best scene in the book is the confrontation between Robin and Donatello, Michelangelo and Casey Jones. Seeing that Williams worked for quite some time on DC's "Robin" series that should make perfect sense. The scene begins with a cowl-up Robin perched atop a huge video monitor looking down on the Turtles like some kind of small-yet-deadly hawk, then continues for about three pages with plenty of ninja-fighting acrobatics. Those three pages alone are worth the cover price.
In short, readers who are looking for a deep plot that is fresh and free of cliché will want to look for a different book. However, readers looking for action and gritty fun – or those who are fans of either franchise – will definitely want this book, and will definitely want to pick up the rest of the series.


EuroCircle | Like Art? Visit Philadelphia!
As a former New Yorker, a long time resident of Philly, and at present, a weekday commuter between the two cities, I am often asked to justify why I live in Philadelphia. For someone who lives in Philly, but works in New York, the distance between the two cities seems impractical. Yet, for me and the thousands of other commuters, this makes perfect sense. New Yorkers love their city (as we all do), but sometimes fail to see the wealth of culture, history and sights in its southerly neighbor.
It is never a big surprise when I point out the cost and quality of living in Philadelphia. One look at my sprawling condo and low cost of living here, and most New Yorkers gasp. But when I mention the wealth of cultural activities, particularly its art world, my New Yorker friends stare at me in disbelief. Surely, Philly's art scene can't compete with Manhattan's!
It can. And it does. You just have to see for yourself.
I can't tell you how many of my out of town friends have told me they visited every dive bar and tourist trap in Philly, but have never walked down the Parkway, noticed the Rodin Museum, heard of Bucks County's school of Pennsylvania Impressionism or The Brandywine River Museum, home to three generations of legendary American painters.
For a long time I have been complaining that Philadelphia does a poor job of marketing itself. Most New Yorkers and Washingtonians overlook us as a pit-stop on the Amtrak's NE Corridor. It is not uncommon for a tourist to visit our town, see the requisite historic sites like Independence Hall, the Betsy Ross House and the Liberty Bell, follow a guide around Old City, then end up in a tourist trap for dinner without a glance at even one of our notable art galleries.
So if you are in Philadelphia for a day, or better yet a weekend, please take a second look. I promise you'll be impressed with our art scene. I have listed some of my favorite museums, art galleries and "treasures" that are a must for all art lovers.
Philadelphia Museum of Art: www.philamuseum.org OK, this one is a no-brainer, and I won't go into detail because it is on every tourist map. Yes, this is the museum where Rocky raced up the stairs, and yes, you can get your picture taken with his statue outside. But please, GO INSIDE!
The Perelman Building: www.philamuseum.org/perelman/ A new addition to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, this annex often gets overlooked. If you are a fan of modern art, textiles, and contemporary and modern furniture, this is a short walk across the parkway and well worth the side-trip. Recently it featured an exhibition by architect Zaha Hadid and it was spectacular!
The Rodin Museum: www.rodinmuseum.org It houses the largest collection of Rodin sculptures outside of Paris. Its Beaux-Arts architecture and a formal French garden, make it an imposing sight on the Ben Franklin Parkway.
The Barnes Foundation: www.barnesfoundation.org/The latest addition to the Parkway, is also the America's most controversial art collection, but still well worth the visit. The man behind this collection is as fascinating as the art itself, because his vision and foresight shaped our appreciation for impressionism and modern art today.
Parkway Sculptures: If you like to walk, I highly recommend a stroll starting at center city's Love Park and heading west towards the PMA. Check out Robrt Indiana's legendary LOVE sculpture, then cross the street towards Market Street to check out the hidden Jean DuBuffet sculpture. This one is tough to find, as it is suspended above the second story of an office building on the south side of Market, between 15th and 16th Streets. As you are walking down the street, don't forget to look up! Also, near the Love Park is the Municipal Services Building that hosts Your Move, a fun sculpture garden featuring giant Monopoly pieces.
Your next stop should be the Henry Moore Sculpture which is just a block away, and then make your way up the Ben Franklin Parkway, where you'll encounter mobiles by the legendary Philadelphia artist Alexander Calder, the imposing Iroquois Sculpture by Mark di Suvero among many others.
Pentimenti Gallery: www.pentimenti.com/ I am not just partial to Pentimenti because it has hosted numerous Eurocircle events in the past, I am also a big fan of its owner Christine Pfister, who has added Philly to the international art scene. Representing many emerging, local and mid-career artists, Christine has launched many art careers and has represented her gallery at numerous prestigious, international art fairs. Visit her gallery, and you are sure to get a personal peek into the best curated collection in the city.
Moderne Gallery: http://www.modernegallery.com/ I am a huge fan of George Nakashima furniture, and this is probably the best place to see it in person outside of his former workshop in Bucks County. In essence, a dealer in Nakashima, Art Deco and American Craft pieces, this place is definitely worth a long linger.
If you have a weekend in Philly, I highly recommend renting a car and taking two, half-day excursions. The first should be to New Hope, PA, a 30 minute ride north, to the birth place of Pennsylvania Impressionism. Yes, while the great art movement was taking shape in Europe and particularly in France, our area was also seeing the emergence of such prominent artists like Fern Coppege, Edward Reddfield, Charles Rosen, and Walter Baum. And there is no more complete an art collection, than at The James Mitchener Museum in Doylestown. Incidentally, if you are a fan of George Nakashima, this is a good place to visit his workshop, see his installations and admire the furniture collection.
Known for its scenic countryside, this region is known for its lackluster wineries. But what the region lacks in prominent vineyards, it makes up for in its museum. The Brandywine River Museum is home to the works of three generations of Wyeths: illustrator N.C. Wyeth whose illustrations graced the covers of first edition classics like Treasure Island; Andrew Wyeth, one of America's most famous painters known for his portraits of his lover, Helga, and Jamie Wyeth, a contemporary artist. On my last visit to the Brandywine a few years ago, I spotted Helga in person, then toured the collections with Andrew's granddaughter who made sure we "stumbled upon" the great artist himself. Unfortunately, Andrew Wyeth passed away a few weeks after that meeting, but that was a visit that will stay in my memories forever.
This is just a small list of places that are a must on your first visit to Philadelphia. There are many more museums and impressive art galleries. I am sure that after your visit, you will be highly impressed by Philly's art scene. And if you are hungry for more, contact me via this website. I'll be happy to recommend many more.

Benefit-cost assessment of potential hurricane modification
Fig 5: Illustration of some early results obtained for damage estimates using the HAZUS model and modifying the historical track of hurricane Wilma.

Given the growing exposure to losses from hurricanes, and the potential the climate change may exacerbate future exposure, a number of people in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security have recently begun talking about restarting research on hurricane modification. The last effort, "Project Stormfury," began in 1962 and ended in 1983 after decidedly unimpressive results. Even if DHS loses interest in this topic, others are likely to become interested if and when climate change leads to dramatic changes in the frequency or intensity of tropical cyclones
The research:
With Morgan and Grossmann, CDMC Ph.D. student Kelly Klima has undertaken a technical review of the modification options and is in the early stages of performing a decision analytic assessment designed to explore three questions:
how much of a change might foreseeable types of interventions produce, and if these changes played out exactly as anticipated, how much might they reduce damages?;
given that there will inevitably be uncertainty associated with the outcome of any intervention, how much must that uncertainty be reduced before one could be confident that the intervention would have a positive net benefit?; and
is it scientifically plausible that uncertainties could be reduced by this amount?
We will build a family of decision-analytic models to examine these questions. Later we may also be able to apply ideas from real options and from robust decision making. We believe that these applications will stretch available tools and require extensions or development of new methods. This problem (along with the geoengineering work outlined below in Section 2.16) also raises potential moral issues as well as legal questions involving liability. The latter will be addressed with our collaborators at Vermont Law School.
The decision makers:
FIU, FPL, IRGC, Munich Re, NRDC, and an indication from the National Hurricane Center of a willingness to share data. Klima is also working with the Florida State and Miami-Dade Offices of Emergency Management.


Although he may have put himself in jeopardy by doing so, the Iranian doctor who tried to save Neda's life has come out to address her final moments. Dr. Arash Hejazi, who is studying at a university in England, revealed his identity as one of the men depicted in the viral video of Neda's death. He noted that Neda died in less than a minute, and his attempt to stop bleeding from the wound in her chest was unsuccessful. Hejazi says that he did not sleep for three nights after the incident. He also mentioned that the Basij member who supposedly shot Neda was quickly grabbed from his motorcycle by protesters, who took his ID card. As he was accosted by protesters, the Basij shouted that he did not want to kill her. Hejazi said that he believes his statements will prevent him from returning to Iran, but that he didn't want Neda's "blood to have been shed in vain."

Lisa A. Frumkes explains why bilingualism is more relevant than ever.
In today's increasingly global and connected world, I interact every day with colleagues from different cultures who speak a wide array of languages. Achieving bilingualism and proficiency in a second language—be it English or another world language—is important for everyone, but especially for 21st-century students.
Language education is vital to all U.S. students, not just native speakers of English. With 4.7 million English language learners (ELLs) enrolled in U.S. public schools, there needs to be training to help them develop full, adult, professional competency in their native (or heritage) languages as well as English. As the ELL population continues to rise (the current 10% is projected to rise to 25% in 2025 and to 40% sometime in the decade after that), it is vital for teachers and schools to become better equipped to implement effective and equitable systems to improve the lives and academic outcomes of these students.
It is critical to bring to light the importance of affording every student in the U.S. the opportunity to learn another language. Whether they seek a postsecondary degree or join the workforce following high school graduation, the necessity and the benefits of bilingualism are more abundant than at any time before. But why stop there? It is clear that students will benefit both academically and professionally from learning a second, third, or even fourth language. Europe has long led the way when it comes to multilingual education, with most countries making proficiency in two or three different languages a graduation requirement. I have many friends outside of the U.S. who think nothing of speaking two or three languages every day. They grow up feeling that it is a natural thing to do and are not afraid of it This is the kind of mindset I have tried to instill in my own children—a sense that learning other languages is an achievable—and enjoyable!—goal. My job is to enable and support America's children linguistically—to provide them the tools, resources, and support they need to succeed, stay competitive in today's global society, and become productive global citizens.

In what follows is presented a series of abstracts for coming papers tackling the topic of transportation mobility and intermodality in contemporary cities.
This paper is devoted to the understanding of transport mobility and its necessity for a sustainable community in a city. The fundamental need of the people to access social and economic places is fulfilled by an efficient transport system. The paper presents, beginning from the traditional transport system that aimed to improve mobility, especially for vehicles but failed to consider wider impacts on the environment, to improving this system to create more vibrant, liveable and sustainable cities. Mobility refers to the movement of people or goods. Transport system has the potential to reshape the city by encouraging greater density and walkability so that the basic needs of life are available with less travel. This increases the accessibility. Smooth passage of motor vehicles and unobstructed movement for pedestrians characterize an efficient mobility network. Finally, we arrive at a complex solution of intermodality. Multiple mode of transport operating at the same location is called intermodal system. Adopting this concept, the aim of a sustainable city is fulfilled. Intermodality integrates two or more transport modes on the same journey. For every traveller, a change of transport mode is unnecessary. Aim is to make this interchange as seamless as possible with common information, an integrated ticket and a multi modal station where passengers feel safe, secure and comfortable.
Keywords: accessibility, mobility, sustainability, pedestrian, safety.
The mobility of the people and goods is largely recognized as essential for the economic growth and the development of the society; it is a strategic element for the competitive development of our cities and fundamental need for the collectivity. In the European context, the vehicular moves are predominantly private. This so rooted tradition, brings the traffic inside urban centers producing increasing negative impacts in terms of congestion, pollution and consumption of ground and sources. The result is a strong reduction of the life quality, especially in the areas that are built more densely and characterized by strong functional fragmentation. Favourite from the numerous European directives; strategies, programs and interventions are being adopted, to implement a sustainable urban mobility. Together with mobility, The concept of accessibility has been object of attention and research. Intermodality consists in giving the possibility to the users of different transport mode and combining them in order to offer as continuous and door-to-door services as possible. The concept of intermodal transport has become more and more important over the last years. Projects such as integrated public transport systems have been implemented in several cities of the world. However, numerous difficulties are still present. How to spread the culture of the public transport, how to make it easy to use and safe ? How to make the net of transports more present in city of different scale but with attention to the environment ? how to make the intermodal system less vulnerable? The aim of this work is to provide an overview of the main factor that have to be investigated for a correct understanding of the reality of the different cities. No unique solution is suggested for different contexts, but rather investigating how to control the urban development in order to achieve a form of intermodal transportation in the medium-long term that could be sustainable.
Keywords : Culture ,life quality, intermodality, vulnerability, adaptive system.
The need of public transportation can be easily recognized due to the fact that growth of population is causing a high rate of mobility which may create many problems with environmental, economic and social consequences if not carefully considered in cities planning. Public transport is encouraged by urban authorities in most of large cities in both of developed and developing countries, however it presents insufficient attraction to switch from using individual vehicle towards the use of public transport. Intermodality as planning and policy principle can be activated effectively to provide the passengers who use different modes of transportation with smooth journey while assuring appropriate service level. Different obstacles confronting the integration of Intermodality principle into public transport networks are mainly caused by inadequate planning and poor infrastructure networks where different transport networks can be considered as transport links without the necessary facilities and polices required to act effectively. Such problems can be overcome through the integrated design which use Intermodality to act as interface between the different modes not only to increases the percentage of passengers who use urban public transport but also consolidates the overall public transport system of an urban area. This study aims to provide clear understanding of Intermodality principle as an integrated system where different factors interact all together to achieve the efficiency of the system, such as modal connectivity, safety requirements for pedestrians, Integrated terminals, integrated fare policy, integrated timetable, information dissemination. To accomplish the objectives of this paper, different design issues and factors to be examined by literature survey and analysis of previous experience of Intermodality networks and finally to define list of factors that would represent obstacles in case of applying in developing cities in addition to clarify some of opportunities that can be used to achieve the efficiency of the system.
Keywords: Intermodality, Integrated terminals, Connectivity, Transportation efficiency.
For a long time now, there is a growing need for automobile dependency, due to a lot of factors: urban sprawl, increasing urban densities, lack or poor services of transportation …etc. Automobile dependency is the main reason for a lot of problems that are experienced in cities, such as traffic congestion, noise pollution, air pollution, consumption of non renewable resources, and consequently increase of CO2 emissions and climate change. Improving the quality and efficiency of transportation services in general is considered a growing demand nowadays in many countries. Governments should develop transportation plans and policies to reach creative approaches for transportation services. The European Commission White Paper states that the idea of connecting modes, particularly through rail and transport hubs, is seen as increasingly important in the achievement of seamless travel, says Michèle Dix, Managing Director of Planning, Transport for London. A transportation hub acts as a good moderator for a lot of transportation means in which its design and location starts from a well planned mobility strategy and a convenient and inexpensive transportation mode. This paper aims to discuss the role of transportation hubs in cities defining the different types of transportation means that can exist in the hub in regard to the city size and complexity, investigating their role in the urban dynamics and highlighting the importance of improving the energy and economic efficiency of these hubs as a step forward towards a sustainable city.
Keywords: Cities, transportation hub, transportation means, energy efficiency, sustainability.
Transportation Mobility or …. Intermodality? Starting from this fundamental question this paper wants to analyse and discuss about the road that the actual urban society should follow in order to obtain a better and liveable future. Enrique Penalosa said "an advanced city is not a place where the poor move about in cars, rather it's where even the rich use public transportation", and maybe one of the most important points and obstacles to a concrete change is the attractiveness of the actual mass public transportation system. A renewal of urban transportation means that we should discuss again from the beginning the dominant urbanization model that made our world unordered and based on soil consumption. From the agricultural tradition that made the urban centre developing in courts first, and then along main roads connecting different settlements, our cities grew becoming industrial centers intensively based on wheel transportation systems: transportation and social costs became high due to new necessities, losing the relationship between private and public space and life. Through this paper the author intended to examine how small and medium towns, applying a new balance between public transportation, green spaces, public services and politics, can really change their aspect going towards a green and sustainable future, promoting social aspects of life and creating a more liveable environment.
Keywords: Intermodality; sustainable urban design, passenger, eco-district, transportation.
In a more and more urbanized world, people, traffic and trade accumulate in cities more than ever. The way in which these flows challenge the city are of different nature: not only do they need to get handled in their quantity most efficiently, but they also need to get organized in a sustainable manner. At last solutions have to contribute to a spatially fair, participatory and satisfying city. Today, the principals of how to create a sustainable city are commonly accepted: high density, balanced mix of residential & commercial and integrated public transportation are among the most important ones. However, details of the organization of soft mobility and public transport are still subject of debate and research. Supply chains of industries are getting more complex due to specifications and this results in increased traffic necessary to keep the economy alive. This paper investigates the problem of how to reconcile the increased demand for transport on the one hand and the need to reduce its impact on the environment on the other hand. The research looks for solutions and approaches on the legislative, technical, and spatial level of a city. Furthermore it analyses unused potentials in cities that can be activated to support a more sustainable and economic flow of people and goods. The streets of a city are often congested on peak hours but mostly free over night. With a set of incentives, this potential to process traffic can be activated. Eventually, the paper provides an overview over best practices worldwide and the limits and chances of re-organized traffic flows in a city.
Keywords: Smart city, traffic, urban planning, sustainability.
As the number of smoggy weather days rising up in mega cities which doesn't have huge industry factories nearby in China, people started to realized the vital role of the use of vehicles in air pollution. Except for the policies about control the traffic volume by limit the vehicle use according to its last number of license plate, there are also other strategies coming up to develop a more sustainable way of movement. Tianjin, a municipality very close to Beijing, has a few bike sharing companies gradually rising recently. This article studies about how to make Tianjin a city less polluted by smog in the way of encourage and promote more use of bicycles instead of vehicles. The result and data of researches on the development path of bicycling system in Copenhagen is listed in the text, together with the analysis on the current situation of public transportation in Tianjin, including the main choice of movement by different ages and states of identities, the current use of the new bike sharing system, the problems came with it and the influence it has brought to the citizens. A proposal plan about the development needed on public facilities, educations to call up the conscious to care more about environment and policies to speed up the transform process are brought up in the last part of this work.
Road transport is one of the biggest CO2 emissions producers nowadays, it is also the major contributor to the global warming and the major consumer of energy because of the combustion engines which burn petroleum. Based on scientific reports "In the United States, about 20% of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions come from motor vehicles". The will of reaching long distances, the urban sprawl and urbanization, global market and climate change are demanding us for improving and reshaping our transport system. The growing cities and population increase also the use of private and public vehicles, which has a very big impact of the air pollution. Sustainability in transport is the future goal for many developed countries, organizations etc. European Union has created a policy for transport sector for decreasing the negative impact, improving the quality, accessibility and effectiveness of public transport and mobility. To make the transportation more sustainable we need to involve the use of low-carbon energy, clean and energy- efficient vehicle, make an intelligent transport service and solutions. It is very important that we support the necessity socio-technical changes. The general, country, union or organization policies, are working on the sustainable and adequate transport. Although it is a challenge to develop and apply one and the same policy in different cities, conditions and areas. Each case is different and needs own methods and measurements to be taken. Climate, culture and the needs of the certain populated urban areas play an important role of the way how the mobility polices supposed to be improved. In a country like Finland with very rough climate conditions, has been made policy for sustainable transport, which is based on the cold climate conditions and constrains. On another hand city Masdar, Abu Dhabi is a project of whole new sustainable city and the mobility is solved with different methods which are suitable for the hot climate. Using different solutions, both studies represent one and the same main goal- sustainable, smart transport and mobility.
Keywords: Transport, sustainable, polices, conditions, mobility.
Congestion is one of the biggest problems that suffer the big cities around the world, and unfortunately this problem is increasing year by year and especially after the emergence of the problem of population inflation that crush the world in the last decades. People, Developers, urban planners, investors, are well aware that continuing using traditional ways are short term solutions that will not solve the main problem, they started to think about new solutions to avoid increasing this huge crisis, trying to achieve an efficient transport system is not new. Many kind of solutions appeared in last years, one of them is reduction of parking space, because when the drivers are looking for a parking space and especially in downtowns account for over 40 percent of all inner-city traffic, and that on perfectly ordinary days, imagine how much will be in Christmas weekend the proportion may even rise to up to 90 percent. the future of parking is to take advantage of vertical space in much the same way we do with sky rise buildings, here there are a number of floors or levels on which parking takes place. It is essentially a stacked car park. Using multi-storey car parking will help the people to find the parking area faster because of the tall buildings and arrive there easily will avoid the traffic in the cities that they have big amount of cars, this kind of projects became useful especially in big cities like United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and especially in West United State by Applying multiple access and exit system to avoid traffic congestion in and out. Following this Step, using another systems, and developing new ways and strategies which would evaluate and assess traffic management policies, and achieve our plans in the future.
Keywords: Traffic, cars, parking, easy-Access, city.

Operation Guardian of the Walls: Mechina students mobilize for relief efforts
These are difficult days for Israel, and the mechinot are rallying to help however they can. Mechina students are distributing treats to soldiers and families, running activities for children, substituting for educators who can't work, volunteering at hospitals, and cleaning out bomb shelters
The Israeli response to terrorist attacks from the Gaza Strip started a week-and-a-half ago, and Operation Guardian of the Walls isn't over yet. Countless rockets have been fired at southern and central Israel, the IDF continues to attack targets in Gaza, and the situation is extremely tense.
Faced with this challenge, hundreds of students at mechinot of all stripes have picked up the gauntlet with a range of activities to help the people of southern and central Israel. From helping medical workers at hospitals to distributing refreshments to soldiers and families, here is a list of the amazing things they've been doing.
Mechinat Aderet
Mechinat Aderet set itself the goal of making life easier for medical workers in this difficult time. The mechina's students spread out over the past several days in hospitals and clinics in the Shfela to run activities for children of hospital staff. This way the parents can keep doing their critical work, and the children have a welcome distraction.
Mechinat Bnei David
After a successful fundraiser, the students of Mechinat Bnei David in Eli used the proceeds to treat local soldiers and police to pizza and snacks.
Mechinat Eitan
To help with the tension and anxiety, students at Mechinat Eitan in Mishor Adumim brought snacks and treats to soldiers, as well as to families that need to run for the bomb shelter every few minutes. The students collected the food outside shopping centers from customers.
Mechinat Chemdat
Mechinat Chemdat rallied at intersections, where students waved Israeli flags and shared smiles to raise the morale of passersby.
Mechinat Hanegev
The students of Mechinat Hanegev at Midreshet Ben-Gurion deployed as substitutes for preschool educators in the Ramat HaNegev region who couldn't go to work because their children's schools were closed.
Mechinat Arava at Ein Yahav
The students of Mechinat Arava at Ein Yahav traveled to Kiryat Malachi, where they cleaned up long-unused bomb shelters and ran programs for children of medical workers who are taking care of the injured.
Beit Yatir Pre-Army Torah Academy
Students traveled from the Beit Yatir Pre-Army Torah Academy to Be'er Sheva to clean up bomb shelters. They also put on an activity for children and families who had been evacuated from the Gaza perimeter for a break.
Mechinat Haviva Reik
The students of Mechinat Haviva Reik at Givat Haviva hosted families from Ashkelon, which has been beleaguered in recent days by salvos of rockets and air raid sirens. The families finally had a break from the danger and noise, and the children enjoyed an array of carefully planned activities, courtesy of the mechina students.
BINA Mechina
Medical workers at hospitals are active around the clock due to the fighting. To help them keep doing their important work, this week the students of the BINA Mechina ran daycares for their children.
Many mechinot also provided hospitality for families, service year groups, and mechinot from the south. Among the mechinot providing lodging for families were Mechinat Derech Eretz in Kmehin, Mechinat Echad Mishelanu in Mitzpe Ilan, Mechinat HaEmek, Mechinat Kerem-El in Daliyat al-Karmel, the Tavor Leadership Academy's Moran branch, and Mechinat Yedidya in Beit Shemesh.
On Earth Day and every day: Mechina students protect the environment
Good Deeds Day: Mechina students give back to the community
