"Who cares?"
Harry Styles addresses bisexual rumors head-on
By David Grant December 16, 2019 at 1:12pm · 20 comments
Harry Styles has opened up about the rumors around his sexuality in a new interview, leaning into the ambiguity of his image.
Questioned by The Guardian whether he's ever been asked if he's bisexual, Styles responds:
"Um. I guess I haaaaave been asked? But, I dunno. Why?"
"It's not like I'm sitting on an answer, and protecting it, and holding it back. It's not a case of: I'm not telling you cos I don't want to tell you. It's not: ooh this is mine and it's not yours," he says. "It's: who cares? Does that make sense? It's just: who cares?"
Well, his young LGBTQ fans, some of whom face hardships over their sexualities, likely care.
He takes a similar approach in describing his fashion choices:
"What women wear. What men wear. For me it's not a question of that. If I see a nice shirt and get told, 'But it's for ladies.' I think: 'Okaaaay? Doesn't make me want to wear it less though.' I think the moment you feel more comfortable with yourself, it all becomes a lot easier."
Later in the interview, Styles is asked about what some fans have perceived as hints about his sexuality. Namely, his Fine Line album sleeve, which appears to reference the bisexual flag.
"Am I sprinkling in nuggets of sexual ambiguity to try and be more interesting? No. In terms of how I wanna dress, and what the album sleeve's gonna be, I tend to make decisions in terms of collaborators I want to work with. I want things to look a certain way. Not because it makes me look gay, or it makes me look straight, or it makes me look bisexual, but because I think it looks cool. And more than that, I dunno, I just think sexuality's something that's fun. Honestly? I can't say I've given it any more thought than that."
He concludes:
"What I would say, about the whole being-asked-about-my-sexuality thing—this is a job where you might get asked. And to complain about it, to say you hate it, and still do the job, that's just silly. You respect that someone's gonna ask. And you hope that they respect they might not get an answer."

He doesn't owe anyone an answer, but this is absolutely the opposite of addressing the rumor head on.

I love how the tag for the article, which is supposed to just be a quote from the article, is what all of us readers are thinking about him, the subject, and the article. … who cares?!
redzebra1
I guess some fans and people on the staff of Queerty can't get over their high school crush on him!

People don't really care as more that they are just curious. It shouldn't matter and in that way he gives the perfect answer which could also include the message of "Love who you love, it shouldn't matter to anyone". And isn't that exactly the best answer to give to young LGBTQ people ?

Just another boring straight popstar trying to catch us queers because we're fantastic fans, consumers, and visionaries.

I'll taking gay baiters over blatant homophobes, that other 1D guy, any day.
*I don't care for that type of music. the type that the typical gays like and presumed to like. gaga madonna rupaul w/e.
Actually, no!
He's so homely and bland, who gives a damn WHAT he is?
Jimmyk321
Right…. projecting much?
It is true that it shouldn't matter. And it's not really our business. No one should have to cop to any identities. And people should fvck who they want to fvck and love/be with who they want to love/be with. However, I call BS on him claiming that he doesn't egg on these rumors. Hell, a certain section of his fan base even thinks he's "out". He also doesn't seem to get (or he's unwilling to admit) that being a guy whose success greatly depends on his supposed good-looks and his appeal to young females means that showing unabashed same-sex passions, affections, preferences, love, relationship ambitions is still pretty much a no-no in the entertainment industry. Ultimately, Harry is playing a game. But he's very actively playing that game. None of this is accidental.
MISTERJETT
when asked, he should say "none of your business".
Yeah he broke the rule of "Don't think of an elephant." Instead he milked the interview question for clicks and attention

He & Zayn were boyfriends (sex, bj's). Call it what you want. Boy George's drummer/lover claims to be straight. Everybody's got male/females chromosomes. F***ing is one thing. A relationship is another. A hole's a hole. I mean, how many guys in here have slept with "str8" guys? Zactly.
You don't really know what he and Zayn did together. You're putting it out there like it's common knowledge or something. There were rumors that Harry hooked up with all his band-mates at some point. None of those rumors mean much of anything. However, the current rumors about Harry are ones that he is purposely instigating.
There are plenty of people who indulge same-sex relationships but still claim "straight". Just like there are people who indulge hetero relationships but claim to be "gay". And there are folks who don't do anything beyond one sex yet say that they're bi/pan/fluid. Identity is mostly about sociology, politics, perception and personal ego. That's especially the case for public figures. People pick and choose what they want different identities to mean and what they wish to embrace or not embrace. It is what it is. And it's not going to change.

@ Dr. Don. People can "choose" whatever identities they want. But that doesn't mean crap when the Nazi's (or police or legislators) come knocking on your door. People are gay, straight, or bi (and, in rare cases, asexual), most often not through choice. So, just as Jews or blacks have claimed expedient identities (when they could) in the past to save their hides, gays can do that same thing. But that doesn't change who they are.
I don't really see those as comparable. Race is based on appearance, DNA, family history and societal experience. Yes, no one can choose their attractions, sexual desires or sexual fulfillment. And no one can choose where they fit within the gender, romantic, sexual, emotional investment, relationship contentment spectrum. But people do choose what behaviors they indulge. They choose to come out or not. They choose what identities they embrace or don't embrace. People used to be deemed gay/bi based strictly off of behaviors and sociology. But in more "cultured" societies even that's somewhat changing. Sexuality, orientation, identity will never be as straight-forward as race. That's partly why things are more convoluted than ever. We can't even come up with general consensuses around what all these different identities actually mean. Hell, folks are still arguing about the sexuality/identities of people from 50 years. The "social construct" argument does have some fair points.
I do agree with your post below. There needs to be less focus on what public figures are up to. Everything starts at home, with a safe and supportive environment. And you must build up your own esteem and mental health.
I remember when Elton John was a bisexual.

getting tired of the b.s. that out celebrities save lives. (Of course, celebrities feed the business models of sites like these.) There are plenty of out gays, and more kids kill themselves than ever. You know what really saves lives: loving and supportive family, friends, and/or communities. Without those, you're much pretty screwed.

Asked and answered. Now can we stop harassing him with these sex-focused questions? At this point it seems Harry is being sexually abused by shady journalists and horny pervs.
Why hound him with this kind of nonsense? It's yellow journalism, at best.

It makes perfect sense to review Yuzu Rouge alongside Un Zest de Rose, because they share some similarities, primarily the rose and citrus pairing. Parfums 06130 were created by Raphaël Haury, a young nose behind Clarins Par Amour and several Azzaro fragrances. The opening of Yuzu Rouge is a tart effervescence of citrus notes, sweet lemon and dry lime. While they do not replicate the scent of yuzu precisely, the combination is vibrant and uplifting. Tea rose with its sweet fragrance weaves in gently around the citrus notes, softening the sharpness and astringency. A touch of blackcurrant provides a juicy note that permeates pink rose petals in the heart of the composition and lends a tart green accent that makes the resulting composition light and sparkling. I find it similar to Un Zest de Rose by Parfums de Rosine, with a touch more berry in the drydown, however while Un Zest de Rose is a white rose sorbet, Yuzu Rouge is a rose flavored drink. It is difficult to decide which is one better, because while Un Zest de Rose is slightly more complex, Yuzu Rouge has become my staple due to the fact that it is very easy to wear despite heat and humidity of the East Coast summers.

Tania: You know, I've heard of tea roses but never smelled one face to face. (Face to blossom?) I bet that's it. The more actual flowers I smell, the less confident I feel saying a flower smells like this or that. The variations are astounding. Nature really is an inventive perfumer.

Expert thinking wins Chancellor's Medal
Published January 18, 2008 August 27, 2012 AuthorDeborah Marshall
How do experts think and how does a novice get to think like an expert?
These are the questions Griffith University technology education lecturer Dr Ivan Chester examined in his award-winning PhD thesis.
Dr Chester received a Chancellor's Medal and two university Excellence in Teaching Awards for his research into the development of new teaching strategies for three-dimensional computer aided design (3D-CAD).
He studied 3D-CAD experts to discover what was different about their modelling thinking processes compared to non-experts.
Nearly every modern consumer product is produced from 3D-CAD modelling – whether it be motor cars, cochlear implants or furniture.
"I found experts use mental imagery to think ahead and create models which can be easily modified without having to start again from scratch," Dr Chester said.
"My resulting teaching strategies include showing students how to develop mental imagery, specific teacher modelling of the thinking strategies used by 3D-CAD experts and group 3D-CAD problem solving."
All graduating technology education students now learn the 3D-CAD teaching strategies developed by Dr Chester and Australian teachers of technology are implementing his strategies in the classroom.
Dr Chester's research also has international links, with the British Design and Technology Association using it in their 2006 review of 3D-CAD teaching in the United Kingdom.
Working full-time while completing his thesis, Dr Chester also led the 'Technology in Schools' project.
A collaboration between the Queensland Industrial Technology and Design Teachers' Association (INTAD) and multi-national CAD software developer Parametric Technology Corp, the program provides Australian teachers with CAD training and free software.
More than 1500 teachers have been trained through the scheme resulting in over 30,000 Australian students getting access to advanced 3D-CAD software. In 2006 Dr Chester was awarded life membership of INTAD.
"The biggest challenge while undertaking my PhD was to continue to be a good role model for my students.
"I believe the best teachers teach very well, have a high service ethic to their school and their profession, demand high academic standards of themselves and their students and have a real commitment to life-long learning.
"The Chancellor's medal, the teaching awards and the life membership of INTAD represent for me the achievement of my goal to be the best possible role model for the next generation of teachers."
Griffith's technology education program is nationally recognised as a leader in its field with a 100 per cent graduate employment rate.
The Chancellor's Medals are awarded annually for exceptional performance in the PhD thesis examination.

AccorHotels has appointed Gillian Millar as the new Senior Vice President, New Zealand, Fiji and French Polynesia effective April 01, 2017.
The new appointment signifies the first time a female leader has filled this strategic role for AccorHotels and upon relocating to Auckland, Millar will replace Chris Sedgwick who departs the role in pursuit of other interests outside of AccorHotels.
Early in her career, Millar worked for AccorHotels' Darling Harbour hotels and Sofitel Melbourne, re-joining AccorHotels in 2012 following the merger with Mirvac Hotels. At that time Millar was Regional General Manager Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia for Mirvac and she was subsequently appointed General Manager, The Sebel and Citigate Albert Park Melbourne (now Pullman and Mercure Albert Park).
Following a number of General Manager appointments and an Area General Manager role in Melbourne, in April 2015 Millar was appointed to her current role of Vice President Operations Western Australia.
"I am delighted to be relocating to New Zealand, as it holds an extra special sentiment for me: my husband proposed after a snow landing on the top of Mt Cook," Millar said.


SOLO's goal is to bring writers together to find inspiration not only from each other, but also from the rich, soulful, and authentic vibe that is South Louisiana.
Robert Vincent is an award-winning singer/songwriter from Liverpool – having received the inaugural Emerging Artist Award from "Whispering" Bob Harris in 2016 and UK Americana Music Association's UK Album of The Year in 2018.
Seeing him play at the Bluebird Café's Bluecoat event, the legendary broadcaster immediately invited Robert to record an Under The Apple Tree Session in his home studio and for his BBC Radio 2 "Country" show - describing him as "absolutely magnetic".
Vincent credits his story-telling style of songwriting to his upbringing – where his formative years were spent listening to his father's record collection including Emmylou Harris, Charlie Rich and Waylon Jennings, plus his older brother's introduction to Pink Floyd.
In 2013, he released his debut album, Life In Easy Steps - with the title track receiving national airplay from Janice Long and Radcliffe & Maconie – and he's subsequently toured the UK supporting Paul Carrack, James Blunt, Squeeze and The Pretenders at Royal Albert Hall.
Recorded in his hometown and mixed in Nashville by Grammy Award-winning producer Ray Kennedy, his second full-length release I'll Make The Most of My Sins sees him sited by The Guardian as one the UK's top Americana artists.
Robert hits the road this March for Hearts of Glass Tour supporting singer/songwriter Beth Nielsen Chapman and has been invited to perform live on The Old Grey Whistle Test on BBC4.
South Louisiana Songwriters Festival and Workshop (SOLO) is a unique event that combines the intimate, intensive, and creative songwriting process with a public-facing festival. SOLO's goal is to bring writers together to find inspiration not only from each other, but also from the rich, soulful, and authentic vibe that is South Louisiana.

KAR's style has created soft looks for men and women who seek timeless pieces that encapsulates the luxury, charm and grace of the coast. This collection aspires to evoke a sentimental aura. Neutral and muted hues are paired with varying constructed and weighted materials, that complement each other in reflection of it's origin.

How do you decide when picking colors for your work?
Where do you go by when finding the form and coloring when abstracting?
How/where do you get your ideas?
How do you get you work in museums?
Where do you go to get the tools?
What made you want to make art?
The songs I would pick would be classical music or jazz music. The songs from video games would be the sims songs they are classical and it can give you the feeling of ideas and brings out your imaginations of things and explore at anything.
I like this drawing because of how this person by how the color are picked here. It have red and gold on the character, with a gold light in the background which make the character to stand out a bit.
The artist I like about is Lois Van Baarle but the name she use for branding is Loish.
I like her drawings because of the colors she picks. One drawing is have warm colors with a bright blue near her face.
Loish's color choices would be dark desaturated colors of red, blue, orange. Mostly use dark and and warm colors and one bright color to make your eye go to that area of the picture.
To pick colors thats be pleasing to the eye can sometimes be boring or chaotic picking the color schemes based on two ways to pick called analgous and complementary colors.
Seeing certain colors can change moods. Having an objects of a certain color or a room painted can really change your mood. For example red color give a warm mood and having too much red can make a person have headaches.
Choosing color for the look of the environment can show a huge difference between a sunlight outdoor and the overcast light. the sunlight would be the main light, which any color would be bright contrast to it. The blue sky would have blue show a little on building and objects. The reflected light shows colors from other areas bounce from one area to another area.

Midway through Chile rescue: 17 miners reach freedom
Editor's note: CNN.com is streaming live from beginning to end the rescue attempts at a Chilean mine where 33 men have been trapped since August 5. Also, watch live coverage on CNN TV. Click here for full coverage of the Chile mine disaster.
Follow our minute-by-minute updates on the second half of the Chile mine rescues here.
[Updated at 1:13 p.m. ET, 2:13 p.m. Chile time] The capsule has been sent back down the rescue chamber and Esteban Rojas is expected to be the next man lifted out of the mine.
Chile's mining minister Laurence Golborne briefs the press midway through the rescue efforts.
[Updated at 12:54 p.m. ET, 1:54 p.m. Chile time] Chile's mining minister Laurence Golborne said they have to do some maintenance on the door because of wear and tear from sending it up and down - but there are no major problems with the rescue capsule.
"It is difficult to open and close but it is still working," he said, adding that he expects the capsule to be sent down for the next miner shortly.
Golborne praised all of the work that had been done so far to rescue the seventeen miners - faster than anticipated.
"We are already half way through," he said. "We haven't had any single incident within this rescue process."
Golborne said that there are five rescue workers currently down in the mine - and one more will be sent down in the next few hours. They will decide who that will be soon, he said.
He added he hoped the entire rescue mission would be completed by the end of the day. The plan is for the rest of the miners to be brought up one-by-one, followed by the rescue workers. The sixth worker, who hasn't yet been sent down, will be the final one to be brought up, Golborne said.
"Up until now we feel really satisfied with the teamwork," Golborne said.
Still, Golborne said, "We won't be fully satisfied" everyone is rescued.
[Updated at 12:43 p.m. ET, 1:43 p.m. Chile time] The rescue capsule is still sitting above ground and hasn't been sent back down the chamber for the next miner, but we haven't heard if there's an official reason as to why.
We can see rescue workers and engineers fiddling with the door to the chamber, having someone go inside, and working on closing it. It is unclear if there has been any problem, or if it is just time for some scheduled maintenance to reinforce the door. Either way, this turnaround has taken a bit longer than earlier.
Omar Reygadas knelt in prayer with his brother after being rescued.
[Updated at 12:39 p.m. ET, 1:39 p.m. Chile time] Omar Reygadas exited the rescue capsule with a wide smile to the tune of cheers from rescue workers and his brother and family.
He was donning a blue hard hat with the word "Vive," meaning "live," scribbled on it.
Reygadas then knelt to the ground and prayed as he raised a bible in hand towards the sky. As he was being taken away on a stretcher for medical examination he raised and waved a flag with his name on it.
[Updated at 12:37 p.m. ET, 1:37 p.m. Chile time] 56-year-old Omar Reygadas has emerged as the seventeenth miner to be rescued from the Chilean mine.
As Reygadas made the ascent in the rescue chamber his brother stood nearby videotaping the efforts and messages of praise and congratulations from rescue workers.
Reygadas was originally a bulldozer operator, but following the mine collapse he has taken on duties as the foreman of one of the work shifts.
During his time trapped underground his children have kept a journal of their life above ground - something we're sure he's likely to want to read as he catches up and reunites with his family after more than two months.
[Updated at 12:10 p.m. ET, 1:10 p.m. Chile time] President Barack Obama watched television news coverage of the operation to rescue miners in Chile on Tuesday night and saw it as a "tremendously inspirational story," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Wednesday.
[Updated at 11:57 a.m. ET, 12:57 p.m. Chile time] The rescue capsule has been sent back down to the mine. 56-year-old Omar Reygadas is expected to be the next miner to make his journey to freedom.
[Updated at 11:52 a.m. ET, 12:52 p.m. Chile time] We are about at the midpoint of the rescues in Chile. So far sixteen miners have been rescued and 17 remain underground awaiting their ride up to freedom along with a few rescue workers who will exit last.
If you're just catching up, or want to take a look back, here are some of the highlights of what's transpired during the rescues and the miners' reactions from the first 13 hours and 30 minutes of the rescue.
[Updated at 11:50 a.m. ET, 12:50 p.m. Chile time] After exiting the rescue capsule Daniel Herrera and workers erupted into a Chile chant. He then went directly to hug and kiss his mother Alicia Campos.
He cried as workers clapped for him as he was escorted to be checked out by doctors.
Daniel Herrera hugs his mother Alicia Campos.
[Updated at 11:48 a.m. ET, 12:48 p.m. Chile time] Daniel Herrera, 27, is the sixteenth miner to be rescued from the underground mine near San Jose.
His mother, Alicia Campos, had been hugging rescue workers as she waited for her son to make the long trip. She wiped tears from behind her sunglasses and clapped as the rescue chamber came up from underground.
Herrera started his work as a truck driver, but is now acting as a paramedic assistant, taking on some medical duties in the mine since the collapse.
[Updated at 11:12 a.m. ET, 12:12 a.m. Chile time] It appears another rescue worker has been sent down in the rescue chamber. Unless a different rescue worker will be swapped out, the next person expected to make the journey up is 27-year-old Daniel Herrera.
Victor Segovia embraces a family member after exiting the rescue capsule.
[Updated at 11:02 a.m. ET, 12:02 a.m. Chile time] Victor Segovia has emerged from the underground mine as the fifteenth man to be rescued.
Segovia gave a thumbs up and hugged a family member before repeatedly saying thank you to Chile's president for their determination to help rescue them.
"Congratulations and may God be with you," Chilean President Sebastian Pinera said.
Segovia then hugged and said thank you to Bolivia's president and walked around to thank all of the rescue workers.
The 48-year-old, who has been dubbed the "writer" of the group, kept a journal of his experiences while trapped in the mine for more than two months. Those updates, and separate notes, helped let rescuers above ground stay informed about the surroundings in the mine and the miners conditions - both physically and emotionally.
He has five children and has worked as a miner since before he was 18.
[Updated at 10:55 a.m. ET, 11:50 a.m. Chile time] Family reunions are continuing to happen for the already-rescued miners. Video inside a building where the families are waiting to meet the miners shows several family members in tears embracing their loved ones - some shaking their heads and holding on so tight as if they won't ever let go again.
[Updated at 10:48 a.m. ET, 11:48 a.m. Chile time] Victor Segovia is headed into the rescue capsule. This will be what the view looks like for him on the way up:
[Updated at 10:40 a.m. ET, 11:40 a.m. Chile time] The rescue capsule is now being sent down to retrieve the fifteenth miner - expected to be Victor Segovia.
An emotional Victor Zamora hugs Chilean President Sebastian Pinera.
[Updated at 10:36 a.m. ET, 11:36 a.m. Chile time] Victor Zamora emerged from the capsule to cheers from the crowd. His wife continued to wipe tears from her face as he was unhooked from the harnesses.
He then kissed his wife and hugged her for a lengthy time, holding on tight and rubbing her back and hair. Zamora then blew a kiss to the crowd before being taken for medical evaluation.
While he was on the stretcher he reached up to hug Chilean President Sebastian Pinera, who grasped his hand and offered him words of hope, telling him he could now go back and enjoy life with his family. Zamora, his lip quivering as he spoke to the president, wiped tears from his face over his sunglasses. Bolivian President Evo Morales offered the same thanks and congratulations.
Victor Zamora hugs his wife after being rescued.
[Updated at 10:28 a.m. ET, 11:28 a.m. Chile time] Victor Zamora, the fourteenth miner, has just emerged from the rescue capsule.
Jessica Cortez, his wife, and their child stood nearby tearful, but with wide smiles on their face as they waited for him to emerge. A rescue worker reached down and swapped hard hats with Zamora's son as he was being pulled to the surface.
Cortez put her hand over her mouth and tears began to stream down her face at the sight of her husband.
Zamora followed after his close friend Carlos Barrios who was rescued about 40 minutes ago. Zamora, 33, is a carrier pigeon handler and poet. Zamora didn't spend too much time regularly inside the mine, working mostly as a vehicle mechanic.
He and his wife Jessica Cortez are expecting a daughter in a few months and they now plan to name the baby Paz Victoria, meaning Peace Victory, if it is a girl. He and his wife moved to the mine after he lost his job when an earthquake in Talcahuano destroyed the area.
Bolivian President Evo Morales, left, and Chilean President Sebastian Pinera tell the media about their interactions with the miners.
[Updated at 10:18 a.m. ET, 11:18 a.m. Chile time] Chilean President Sebastian Pinera said each rescue is taking about 40 minutes and they are able to rescue about three miners every two hours. That means, Pinera said, if no other problems come up the rescues could end in about seven or eight hours - much earlier than anticipated.
Pinera said he has taken the time and spoken to each of the already-rescued miners
"They told us the first five days were really anxious-ridden, they didn't know what was happening on the surface," Pinera said. "But when they heard the drilling, they realized the country had not abandoned them."
Pinera said the miners told him that noise alone gave them a sense of release - and when contact was made for the first time, the miners knew for sure the country was behind them.
He added that many relayed the experience of being stuck underground had changed all of their lives and for many it gave "a new meaning to their life."
[Updated at 10:11 a.m. ET, 11:11 a.m. Chile time] Bolivian President Evo Morales and Chilean President Sebastian Pinera are holding a press conference near the site of the mine.
Morales said he hopes to return to his country with rescued Bolivian miner Carlos Mamani, depending on his condition.
"Bolivians will never forget" the accident and rescue, Morales said, thanking Chilean President Sebastian Pinera.
"This incident is uniting us more and more every day," Morales said.
One of the rescued Chilean miners told Morales upon seeing him, "We took care of (Mamani)," the president recounted.
Pinera said the rescues were a symbol that life had triumphed over fear and death.
"I am more convinced than ever that the greatest wealth of our country is not copper - but our miners," Pinera said.
"You never surrendered, you never gave up, and today we are harvesting the results," he said. "I know last night there were tears in every household in Chile, tears of joy."
Pinera praised the miners for showing the country how to endure and thanked the rescue workers for "carrying out a rescue that seemed impossible."
"Today october 13, 2010 - 33 has become a magic number," Pinera said.
[Updated at 9:57 a.m. ET, 10:57 a.m. Chile time] Next up for rescue: Victor Zamora. He follows the rescue of his friend Carlos Barrios. The pair have worked in several mines together before and their families have shared a tent at the Camp Hope site.
Workers are now preparing to send the capsule back down to get Zamora.
Carlos Barrios, like the other miners, is taken on a stretcher to have a medical evaluation.
[Updated at 9:52 a.m. ET, 10:52 a.m. Chile time] Carlos Barrios has just emerged from the mine in the rescue capsule, making him the thirteenth of 33 miners to be rescued.
Family members clapped and cheered in the direction of the capsule as they waited for him to exit.
Barrios waved to the crowd and then hugged and kissed waiting family members.
Barrios, 27, began mining only 10 months ago. He has a 5-year-old son and is an avid fanatic soccer fan and player.
[Updated at 9:42 a.m. ET, 10:42 a.m. Chile time] CNN's Patrick Oppmann reports the miners will occupy the 2nd and 4th floors of the Copiapó Regional Hospital.
Neighborhood residents walked around the quiet streets looking at the phalanx of media that had invaded the area around the hospital.
A Spanish cameraman wandered from media outlet to media outlet trying to get someone to lend him a camera. His cam had stayed behind at the mine last night after officials shut the one road in and out of the mine. Any car lights on the road, the rescue officials said, could counter the helicopter pilots night vision goggles as they ferried the miners to the waiting doctors.
[Updated at 9:39 a.m. ET, 10:39 a.m. Chile time] As workers prepared to rescue Barrios, his family members saw him on a screen enter the capsule and began clapping at the thought that it will only be mere minutes before they can see him. The other miners and rescue workers also cheered him on as the capsule went up towards the surface.
[Updated at 9:19 a.m. ET, 10:19 a.m. Chile time] The rescue chamber is being sent back down to the mine - this time with another rescue worker inside. Carlos Barrios, the foreman, is the next miner expected to be brought to the surface.
Edison Peña hugs his wife after being rescued from the mine.
[Updated at 9:13 a.m. ET, 10:13 a.m. Chile time] Edison Peña waved to the crowd as he walked out of the rescue chamber.
"Thank God we're alive," he said as he became the 12th miner to reach the surface. "I know now why we're alive."
"Please take a picture, please," he said, as he greeted his wife for the first time.
[Updated at 9:10 a.m. ET, 10:10 a.m. Chile time] The 12th miner, Edison Peña, has reached the top of the rescue chamber.
Peña, 34, also sent a request for music while he was down in the mine because of his love for music - especially Elvis. While trapped underground he led the group of 33 miners in sing-a-longs. He has reportedly also been running 10km a day underground in the available space.
Angelica Alvarez, his wife, stood by with a video camera in hand, pointed at the area where her husband would arrive after more than two months underground. She cried and clasped her hands as the capsule reached the surface.
A video image shows the chamber that miners inside the rescue capsule goes through during the rescue.
[Updated at 8:54 a.m. ET, 9:54 a.m. Chile time] The rescue capsule has reached the bottom of the mine and Edison Peña is expected to be miner number 12 to be lifted to the surface.
[Updated at 8:35 a.m. ET, 9:35 a.m. Chile time] A bearded Jorge Galleguillos came out of the chamber to a chant of "sing galleta" - a play on his last name and a reference to his request to sing and play the guitar when he was trapped in the mine.
After exiting the chamber he met one of his brothers, who he shared a long hug with. His brother held tight - and continued patting him on the back.
He then hugged both of the presidents of Chile and Bolivia and rescuers who were there awaiting his arrival. A Bolivian miner trapped inside the mine, Carlos Mamani, was rescued in the early morning.
[Updated at 8:28 a.m. ET, 9:28 a.m. Chile time] The eleventh miner, Jorge Galleguillos, has reached the top of the chamber and been rescued.
Galleguillos, who has been working in mining for 16 years, has had two previous work related accidents. But his family portrayed him as a man who loves mining - and regularly collects stones, minerals and rocks from the areas where he works. He had said in a previous video message that he was not feeling well in the mine, and he is on medication for hypertension.
Down in the mine, he was known as the "folklore guy," and had even requested a guitar be sent down to him. The mining minister wrote back, saying unfortunately they couldn't fit a guitar, but sent down music so he could listen and sing along to lift his spirits, as well as those of the other miners. Galleguillos, who is married and has several children, was also one of the miners concerned about his kids' schooling being impacted. The mining ministers, in response, set up a schooling area at Camp Hope.
[Updated at 8:25 a.m. ET, 9:25 a.m. Chile time] Galleguillos' family is clapping as they watch a TV monitor bring him from the rescue chamber.
The family said like others, they have become a part of a new large family, and will wait at the site until all miners have been rescued.
"One for all and all for one," one of the Galleguillos brothers said.
"We want to tell him how much we love him," his brother said, adding that their mother couldn't come because she was overwhelmed with emotion.
[Updated at 8:26 a.m. ET, 9:26 a.m. Chile time] Bolivian President Evo Morales is now at the site waiting for the arrival of Jorge Galleguillos with Chilean President Miguel Piñera.
[Updated at 8:19 a.m. ET, 9:19 a.m. Chile time] Chilean President Miguel Piñera has returned to the site of the rescues after resting for a short time.
Additionally, reporters on the ground and video shows as more rescues are going on, the time between the rescues is decreasing - perhaps a sign the workers are gaining more experience with the procedure and have gotten into a careful, but fluid rhythm.
[Updated at 8:14 a.m. ET, 9:14 a.m. Chile time] Jorge Galleguillos, the eleventh miner, has entered the rescue capsule and is preparing to begin his ascent through the rescue chamber.
[Updated at 8:00 a.m. ET, 9:00 a.m. Chile time] CNN's Sean O'Key reports that it is quiet at the hospital in Copiapo where miners are being brought for treatment. More police showed up in last half hour, but otherwise the scene is very calm - a stark contrast to the atmosphere last night.
[Updated at 7:57 a.m. ET, 8:57 a.m. Chile time] Workers have sent the rescue capsule down to retrieve the eleventh miner - expected to be Jorge Galleguillos.
Alex Vega gives a thumbs up after being rescued from the mine.
[Updated at 7:52 a.m. ET, 8:52 a.m. Chile time] Alex Vega, looking in high spirits, gave a thumbs up and crossed himself in prayer as he exited the rescue capsule.
He then took off his hard hat and kissed his wife and held her tightly as rescuers cheered in the background. Both cried as they held each other for the first time in more than two months. As he was put on a stretcher and into the required triage, his wife tightly grabbed his hand, and gave him her camera which he held up to videotape the crowd and workers watching. His wife wiped tears from her eyes as he was led away.
[Updated at 7:50 a.m. ET, 8:50 a.m. Chile time] The tenth miner has reached the top of the rescue chamber and been rescued. Alex Vega, 31, is a heavy machinery mechanic. He was doing repair work on a truck when the mine collapsed. Alex Vega's father is also a mining veteran.
He suffers from hypertension and kidney problems, officials said, and he will likely require medical attention when he gets to the hospital.
Vega got into mining because he wanted to earn more money to leave his parents' home to buy a house for his family. However, his wife Jessica Salgado says that while her husband is a bit stubborn, she's going to forbid him from ever working in a mine again.
[Updated at 7:33 a.m. ET, 8:33 a.m. Chile time] Alex Vega's brother said after a night of waiting and holding a vigil at Camp Hope he cannot wait to see his brother.
"Yes we're very excited," Jonathan Vega told reporters. "It is our turn and we are praying at all 36, with the rescuers, will come up. We are a big family - we are 33 families that have come together now. We are waiting for all of them."
Jonathan Vega and his family have been singing in anticipation of his arrival.
"In the beginning the wanted to bring him up last but he's having some back aches so he's very anxious," he said. "And that's why they are bringing him up now."
His wife, Jessica Salgado, smiled nervously and put her hands in her jacket pocket as she hugged rescue workers and waited for her husband to come out of the rescue capsule.
[Updated at 7:11 a.m. ET, 8:11 a.m. Chile time] The rescue capsule has been sent down to retrieve the tenth miner.
[Updated at 7:03 a.m. ET, 8:03 a.m. Chile time] Workers are checking the rescue capsule before sending it down to retrieve Alex Vega - who is expected to be the tenth miner that will be brought to the surface.
Mario Gomez kneels down to pray after being rescued and taken out of the rescue capsule.
[Updated at 7:03 a.m. ET, 8:03 a.m. Chile time] Mario Gómez' wife rubbed her hands and clasped them together in anticipation as he was being unloaded from the rescue capsule.
Gómez raised his hands gave two thumb up as he waved the Chilean flag proudly and pointed at his family. He has said he will never step foot in a mine again - a place he has worked since he was 12. His wife Lillane Ramirez has prepared a honeymoon for them as soon as he is ready.
After exchanging in a long embrace with his wife, Gómez dropped to the desert floor on his knees, and prayed with his hands clasped around the Chilean flag. He was then loaded onto a stretcher and covered in a blanket - but he raised his hand with exuberance in triumph as he was carted off.
[Updated at 6:57 a.m. ET, 7:57 a.m. Chile time] A ninth miner has reached the top of the rescue chamber and been rescued. Mario Gómez is the oldest of the group at age 63.
The day of the cave in Gómez, who has been mining since the age of 12, had been getting ready to retire but found himself in the mines to test a new truck. Gómez has lung problems because of his history of mining and also lost a couple of fingers during a previous mining accident.
He is known in the group of 33 as the spiritual one and requested a crucifix and other religious symbols so the men could construct a shrine underground.
[Updated at 6:49 a.m. ET, 7:49 a.m. Chile time] Gómez' wife Lillane Ramirez, stood by the site of the rescue video taping and readying her camera to see her husband. She held onto the arm of one of the rescuers, nervously joking as she and many of his family members stood by, anxiously waiting to see his face through the rescue tube.
[Updated at 6:35 a.m. ET, 7:35 a.m. Chile time] Gómez, the ninth miner and the oldest trapped underground, has been placed in the rescue tube and is preparing to be pulled to the surface.
[Updated at 6:25 a.m. ET, 7:25 a.m. Chile time] Mario Gómez, the ninth miner and the oldest trapped underground, has been placed in the rescue tube.
[Updated at 6:15 a.m. ET, 7:15 a.m. Chile time] Mario Gómez, 63, the oldest in the mine, is expected to be the next miner to be rescued from the mine. He would be the ninth member of the group of 33 to be rescued.
As the sun comes up over the mine and Camp Hope miners will be wearing sunglasses.
[Updated at 5:55 a.m. ET, 6:55 a.m. Chile time] Dawn is breaking in Copiapo, Chile and the miners will be facing a change in light as they emerge from the rescue chamber.
All of the miners now will likely be wearing sunglasses so they can adjust after being underground in darkness for more than two months.
So far, eight miners have been rescued, in a little under eight hours.

I would guarantee if the trapped minors were Muslim the world wouldn't care.
I would bet that your an idiot.
Aaron Ray
Oh, of course. I mean, we obviously don't give humanitarian aid to Muslim countries. Never have, never will. Muslim countries do poorly taking care of other Muslims. Look up who took in the Darfur refugees.
I'm being obviously sarcastic. And you'd be suprised as to who actually took in the Muslim refugees, a very common 'enemy' of the Muslim world.

You would probably send down a suicide bomber to rescue them.

Actually, he is partially right. There would certainly be those that would say 'good, let them stay there, its a good start'

Get off this site and never post again. How dare you. These are human beings you disgusting terrorist. By the way, I hope you're not wearing clothes made in the US or taking advantage of anything we provide. You are selfish and ignorant.

QD2!! QD2!! You're awesome – thank you so much for posting that to the disgusting terrorist!!
What is a 63 year old doing working anyway? Their should be a universal law regarding age limits for workers, where each state has to take care of its citizens at a certain age after a lifetime of work and taxes! Maybe the UN can pass that, and actually do something productive for once.
Im guessing that almost everyone will still be working at 63 in any line of work.
Hopefully not. I was thinking more the line of early 50s.
Since when is ~30 years (college graduation to early fifties) a lifetime?
Having the government mandated to take care of you!!! That folks is the Democrat mindset at it's most pure form. Aaron Ray is the poster child for free loaders!!!!
Amazing! I am so happy for the miners and their families! That would be horrible to be trapped in a mine as long as they were!
For all the rescuers and all the people who are behind this rescue operation, Thank You.
So glad everything is going well with the rescue... God bless everybody involved in the rescue! May the miners be blessed with the love of their families and loved ones. South Africa, Bellville – dankibaar vir die wat al gered is en vertrou die res sal veilig uitgebrind word!
The REAL heroes are the rescuers, not to put down the tremendous endurance and will of the miners.
Yeah, I do agree.
iShane
love the clock....no, it's not over the top, hyped, sensationalism at it's finest hour, human suffering into sales...nah, not in the least, good job cnn. Theme music?

What a WONDERFUL day for the miners and their familes god bless them all.
Where is the off button on Carl .
To Cuseguy – you're ignorant. God has something to do with everything. Every single man that has come out so far has thanked God immediately. God IS with them, he put them there for a reason. Perhaps to show the world the power of working together, of never giving up hope, the power of prayer, and the biggest ONE NATION UNDER GOD. Wake up and smell the coffee.
No offense, but do you have proof of this? I agree with you, but you can't pass off your opinion and beliefs as fact. It doesn't work. Their is more than one belief system, and you just happen to ahve been raised that way, or happened to have decided to convert, I don't know you so I cannot tell.
PA, don't even bother answering to that FOOL CuseGuy. One day, he shall recognize the power of GOD. God bless the miners and the rescuers.
Gee he sure seems to be doing a lot reminding lately then hasnt he? earthquakes here, tsunamis there, cave-ins elsewhere, all resulting in cooperation and hardwork etc etc.
And quit with the one nation under god crap, that 1950's addition means exactly jack.
By the way, he has woken up and is drinking the coffee, its the people like you and maine that seriously need to open your eyes.
Just keep your eyes closed, Cedarrapids – he'll take care of you in the end, too.
'he'll take care of you in the end, too'
yeah, that sounds like a threat, which is what i would expect from the mafia boss that is god.
Dear Cedarrapids – have you no morals? What drives you? What do you believe in? Is your world perfect? Do you not believe in unity? Were you bullied as a child because you seem extremely angry.
cedarrapids; what are you?
McJesus
Winged humanoids flying in the sky and red-skinned horned evil dudes under the ground are REAL I know. Because it says so in an old book written by men a few thousands years ago when TOILETS did not even exist, clean running water was an impossibility, and the average lifespan was less than half of what it is now. There ARE caring pseudo beings in a nearby quasi-dimension who watch over us. God DOES exist, and have such petty human emotions such as jealously and a need to be loved (worshipped). He will kill you and toss you into a lake of fire (don't ask me how fire exists in a liquid form, God is not bound by the laws of nature of course..). So fear him. Worship him. Or suffer an eternal existence of pain and suffering in the after life. In any case... the rapture cometh soon. Keep an eye out for it. Only 'True Christians(tm)' will have their names mentioned in the credits when they roll. The End.
The miners prayed and stayed together with Hope and Prayer a lot is possible. A lesson for all the world.
Sharvin
TO GOD BE THE GLORY! WHATEVER TO EVERYTHING ELSE. ONE DAY EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW AND EVERY TONGUE CONFESS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS LORD. SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO NOW, BUT THIS IS TOTALLY GOD. ENOUGH SAID!!!!!!
uh, whatever....
HALLELUJAH!!!.......God keeps on doing great things. Anyone who opened there eyes in this new day....Know that God did that! You didn't, so don't let the enemy fool you! Don't believe me...then one day if ever your eyes don't open up and no life is in your body...I pray you've given your life to Jesus...or hell will be your living domain for ETERNITY! DO you know what time that is ...FOREVER!
Tell that to the millions who die from cancer, disease, starvation, genocide, war every year. Apparently God didn't love them enough.
dalevincent
Cuseguy, God in His sovereign power, is still in perfect control. He allowed all this to happen for the miners to appreciate His saving grace. And for them to see for themselves how big their faith is. All things work together for good for those who love God. God bless Chile!

Imagine Possibilities' sensory room allows our participants a quieter, more secluded space to spend time when they want a break from our more energetic day programs. The room is being expanded on and improved constantly, and right now contains comfortable seating and lying spaces, tents for when someone wants an extra bit of privacy, and colored lights and objects with different textures to stimulate the senses. Small group activities take place there throughout the day, such as yoga group, social skills, and Spanish language class. The room also serves as a calm space for participants to read books and color, take naps, and listen to music.
We are currently applying for grants and securing funding to continue to add to the sensory room, so check back often to see what we've been up to!

Internet Governance is understood as the development and application by governments, the private sector and civil society, in their respective roles, of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures and programmes that shape the evolution and use of the internet. In order to ensure a sustainable, people-centred and rights-based approach to the internet, the Council of Europe engages in setting and promoting standards, building partnerships and fostering multi-stakeholder dialogue.

Brief overview of the latest Council of Europe guidelines and activities in the field of internet governance
The overall aim of the Council of Europe's Internet Governance Strategy is to ensure that public policy for the internet is people-centred in order to build democracy online, to protect internet users, and to ensure respect and protection for human rights online.
The Council of Europe is conscious that Internet provides a unique environment with huge potential for innovating forms of exercising human rights. Therefore it has engaged in standards setting work to address the challenges that human rights may face in that environment to ensure people maximum freedom but also maximum safety, with minimum but necessary constraints.
Modern societies face an increasingly digital, mobile and social media environment, which provides users with ever more information from ever more sources. Overtaking traditional media, large technology companies play an increasing role in terms of distribution of news and digital advertising. In this evolving context, the Council of Europe promotes quality journalism that can increase levels of political knowledge, participation and engagement, and subsequently reduce corruption and encourage elected officials to represent their constituents more effectively.
Conscious of the opportunities and challenges created by the internet for the exercise and enjoyment of human rights, the Council of Europe has engaged in setting and promoting standards to address these challenges. The key objective consists in guaranteeing that the European Convention of Human Rights applies both offline and online, and member states engage to respect, protect and promote these rights on the internet.
The Internet has radically transformed the way we access information and communicate - creating new opportunities for strengthening democracy. Unfortunately it can also be used to restrict human rights and to commit crimes. Revelations on mass online surveillance and regular reports on abuses of the rights to privacy and free expression clearly show the need to effectively protect human rights on the net. The Council of Europe works with governments, the private sector, civil society and other actors to shape the Internet as a safe and open environment where freedom of expression, freedom of assembly and association, diversity, culture and education can flourish.
Internet intermediaries play an increasingly important role in modern societies. Their actions influence the choices we make, the way we exercise our rights, and how we interact. The market dominance of some places them in control of principal modes of public communication. What are the roles they play? How do they impact human rights, democracy and the rule of law? What are their corresponding duties and responsibilities? The Council of Europe has developed human rights-based guidelines to help member states address this challenge.
The use of automated data-processing techniques raises challenges not only for the specific policy area in which they are operated, but also for society as a whole. The right to life, the right to fair trial, the presumption of innocence, the right to privacy and freedom of expression, workers' rights, the right to free elections, and the rule of law itself are all impacted. The impact of 'algorithms' used by the public and private sector, in particular by internet platforms, on the exercise of human rights and the possible regulatory implications has become one of the most hotly debated questions today.
COOPERATION WITH COMPANIES
The fast pace of technological change and the cross-border nature of internet services present opportunities, but also challenges for users. While it is the task of governments to protect human rights and the rule of law online, companies play a critical role in addressing today's challenges of the digital age because they provide and control its infrastructure. The partnership with the Council of Europe enables them to sit side-by-side with governments when shaping internet policy.
Following the decision of the Committee of Ministers on 16 March 2022 the Russian Federation is no longer a member of the Council of Europe. The website will be updated as soon as possible to take account of this development.
