Keywords: COVID restrictions, intertextuality, memes, socialism, stereotypes
The aim of the paper is to show the Polish story of the COVID-19 pandemic as seen through a humorous looking glass. Different stages of coronavirus presence in the media and social discourse have been accompanied by the appearance and development of jokes and memes, which illustrate the rapidly changing pandemic situation. The database consists of over three hundred memes, movies, and comments collected between February and May 2020, during the pandemic humour peak, and come mainly from private WhatsApp and Facebook accounts of the researchers. The humorous material is related to introduced restrictions, changing laws, parliamentary elections, news from other affected countries as well as seasons and festive times – especially Easter – occurring in the same period of time. The universal themes present in the humorous material travelling around the world are complemented by the strictly culturally immersed topics, reflecting the specific social and political situation in Poland. The analysis undertaken in the article focuses on various kinds of mechanisms which involve intertextuality (allusions) as well as complexity of references that function as sources of humour, with special attention being paid to cultural references, for example, films, paintings, references to political life, including those of the life under socialism as well as universal themes, such as animal memes.

Keywords: archaic, crisis situation, laugh, ritual, pandemic
The article gives an overview of the folk culture mechanisms that helped to cope with the pandemic situation in Belorussia during the first wave of COVID-19 (until midsummer 2020). The article is based on the qualitative analysis of interview texts related to the pandemic as well as the content of internet users' visual reactions (memes, poems, proverbs).
In folk culture the mechanisms helping to overcome the crisis situation often have a ritual-magical nature. When describing the influence of the pandemic on some practices, the authors conclude that their performing in the crisis situation was especially important for the community.
One of the ancient rituals activated for preventing the epidemic was the creation of a magic circle around the village by conducting a procession around the village with a ritual towel ('rushnik-abydzionnik'), which had to be made within one day. On March 28, this one-day-ritual was performed in Minsk with the greatest possible adherence to tradition. The initiators and participants of the practice were mainly representatives of the Students Ethnographic Society. Not all women present knew how to spin or weave, but some of the simplest operations were mastered. The towel was carried around Minsk and brought to a stone on the site of a pagan temple in the centre of Minsk at the sunset. The towel was tied around the stone, and the latter was also covered with threads spun on the same day. The ritual relieved the tension of the participants and fostered awareness of their solidarity, strengthening collective networks, and the feeling of empathy and unity.
COVID-19 also affected the living traditions in Belarus. Some traditional practices were cancelled or postponed. The spread of the pandemic created a negative backdrop for living traditions. However, a number of rites and ceremonies were carried out despite the pandemic in accordance with their spatial and temporal reference. Due to the difficult epidemiological situation, the usual order of ceremonies was changed – their duration was reduced without changing the traditional rite structure. Only local residents participated in the rituals; although, formerly, many journalists and tourists had come to the villages from different parts of the country on the days of the ceremonies.
For tradition bearers, such practices during a pandemic are a way to relieve stress and to share problems with people with similar interests. Traditions are one of the constants of their life; maintaining them in times of crises stabilizes the community.
The coronavirus pandemic has caused a powerful explosion of folk art. The texts of various genres, both oral and written (graphic), are rapidly spreading on the Internet. A large number of them are based on the traditional worldview of Belarusians and are expressed in traditional forms (alterations, ditties, anecdotes, anti-sayings, paroemias, etc.). The role of humour has grown tremendously. Jokes and laughter in the face of an external threat are a compensatory mechanism that helps to overcome fear and uncertainty, and common laughter unites and helps to learn new rules of behaviour. Humour is not concerned with the threat of getting ill, but rather individual hygiene practices, the situation of quarantine, and circumstances of the new reality. Thus, humorous folklore becomes a way to adapt to new norms and to overcome fear and instability.
Constructing fandom at the time of corona crisis: The case studies of Estonian and Belarusian football clubs

Keywords: Belarusian and Estonian folklore, COVID-19 pandemic, fan culture, humour, football, Internet memes, social media, sport folklore
The comparative study analyses the relationship between sports culture and the COVID-19 crisis based on the case studies of fan groups in Estonia and Belarus. Sports and the COVID-19 pandemic are closely interconnected. In the Estonian case, the official analysis results testify that during the first COVID-19 wave in spring 2020 the most affected region in the country was Saaremaa Island, where the virus was literally blown into the air by fan bugles at the international volleyball competition held on 4–5 March 2020. Belarusian sports events did not have such dramatic repercussions, but there were also coronavirus hotbeds in several popular football clubs. The two countries had different approaches to sports events. In Estonia, as in most European countries, all sports competitions and games were banned from 12 March to 17 May 2020, during the state of emergency, but in Belarus, normal sports life continued (except in the cases when there was a COVID-19 hotbed in a sports club). While Estonian football fans were forced to stay home and wait for the games to continue, Belarusian fans, unlike the rest of the world, enjoyed championship games and stadium life. The unique situation in Belarus drew the attention of world football fans to Belarusian football. During the pandemic, most fan activities took place online, making social media the most appropriate environment for this joint study.
In this article, we compare the activities of Estonian and Belarusian football clubs during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic and analyse how fan activities continued on Facebook. We also describe the general situation in the field of sports during the pandemic.
Our analysis shows that the pandemic not only changed the communication pattern between clubs and fans (from real life to the virtual world), but also affected the ratio of parasocial and social interaction. Despite the different situations in the two countries, there was a tendency for football players and club representatives to interact with fans more actively than usual. New forms of fandom required new creative solutions and ways of communicating, which involved humour, (audio)visual media and an emphasis on positive agenda.
Internet folklore in times of global pandemic: COVID-19 in Belarusian online humor
Estonian Literary Museum
Keywords: COVID-19, global, humor, memes, newslore
During the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic (February–July 2020) I collected 374 textual jokes, humorous images, and image macros related to the coronavirus from Belarusian social media, friends, and family members. Many of the examples in my dataset became local memes, circulating within and beyond the Belarusian mediascape. While the Belarusian government's dismissive response to the pandemic was unique among the Eastern European nations, only 34 of my examples referred specifically to the situation in Belarus. Many more examples addressed such issues as living under a lockdown, compulsory mask wearing, and distant working and learning, even though these measures were not implemented in the country on a mass scale. This incongruity between people's lived experience in Belarus and the content of humorous folklore circulating in the country illustrates the influence of global media coverage on vernacular humorous expressions. These vernacular expressions point to strong connections between the Belarusian mediascape and those of other countries, especially Russia, from where many of the examples originated.
The paper also reflects a broader issue of globalization and digitalization of contemporary folklore, discusses the phenomenon of newslore and illustrates how some of the common characteristics of folklore can be applied to the digital forms of vernacular expression. The paper also looks at the balance between global and local in the online folklore.

Keywords: construction of illness meaning, coronavirus (COVID-19), influenza, vaccination, vaccine hesitancy
Although relatively easy to overcome for young and healthy individuals, seasonal influenza is a disease with considerable health, social, and economic consequences for society, especially for higher-risk groups. Even though vaccination against influenza is the most effective tool to prevent it, vaccination rates remain rather low. Together with the promotion of neoliberal individual responsibility over one's health, vaccine hesitancy – a complex phenomenon indicating the lower uptake of vaccines compared to the accessibility of information and services – has risen among societies. In previous research, several barriers – for example, psychological, physical, contextual, and sociodemographic – have been identified as preventing influenza vaccine uptake among risk groups. We approach the topic by using the social constructionist theory regarding the meaning construction of illnesses on cultural, individual, and third-party level. The findings outline the importance of meaning construction on all these levels. It appears that culturally influenza has been seen as an inevitable infectious disease related to the northern climate. Due to that, influenza is not considered as a life-threatening disease that would need preventive actions, except some basic hygiene or usage of folk medicine tools (e.g., ginger and garlic). On an individual level, the meaning construction is based on individual experiences, both with the illness and the vaccine – in the case of negative experiences with vaccine, the perception of something useless or even harmful develops. In addition, it appears that people create their own strategies to rationalize rejection of vaccination for themselves. These involve considerations about belonging to the risk group or the possibility to manage daily activities in non-risky manner even when belonging to the risk group.
On the third-party level, participants saw the potential of pharmacies to alleviate practical constraints (e.g., tight schedule, daily occupation, etc.). Different media channels are also important in mediating vaccination-related information, but the rationalization and selection of the channels vary widely.
The context of the coronavirus changed the vaccination-related perception temporarily for a short term, indicating that fear-based special occasions do not entail a long-term shift in health behaviour as the development of health-related decisions and behaviour is also long-term.
The year of corona in Triinu Meres' blog "Down with angst"

Keywords: blog, blogging behaviour, corona crisis, personal diary blog, Triinu Meres
The history of the (we)blog shows that this online genre can be evaluated as an excellent source of data for qualitative research of various problems. Some authors (e.g. Hookway 2008) even consider the blog as a research technique for exploring certain questions which deal with people's everyday practices. This article presents the results of a case study, which are based on content analysis of a personal blog (diary blog). The study grew out of the premise that the blog owners' posts and their readers' comments can shed some light on ground-breaking events and social processes at both the local and global levels, which in turn can influence the bloggers' behaviour in various ways. The source of the current study was a personal blog titled "Maha äng" ("Down with angst"), the owner of which is poet and writer Triinu Meres a.k.a. väga väga naine (very very woman). The aim was to find out whether and, if yes, then how the corona crisis has changed the blogging behaviour as an integral part of everyday life of one particular blogger. The focus was on posts and comments entered in 2020, often called the year of corona due to the global pandemic. To illuminate possible changes in blogging behaviour, the 2020 posts were analysed in the context of earlier posts archived in 2008–2019. For comparison, the Health Board's blog was used, which documented the course of the corona crisis chronologically with factual accuracy, as well as dailies in Estonian and English. The results of the study showed that in 2020 the number of posts and the activity of commenters in Triinu Meres' personal blog did not increase and that the corona crisis did not become the dominant topic in comparison with the blogger's personal crisis often covered in her blog. The posts revealed some signs that suggest boredom with the corona crisis as a topic of conversation which seemed to be over-exploited by various media channels.
Nature is coming back: Dolphins and dinosaurs. About fake news, photoshop-legends and memes during corona quarantine

eda@folklore.ee
Keywords: contemporary legend, fake news, meme, parody, participatory culture, rumour, social media, tall tale
The article follows the narrative trend initiated by the social media posts and fake news during the first months of the corona quarantine, which claims that the decrease of contamination due to the quarantine has a positive effect on the environment and nature recovery. The author describes the context of the topic and follows the changes in the rhetoric through different genres, discussing the ways in which a picture can tell a truthful story. What is the relation between the context, truth, and rhetoric?
This material spread globally, yet it was also readily "translated" into the Estonian context, and – what is very characteristic of the entire pandemic material – when approaching this material, truthful and fabricated texts, photos, and videos were combined.
From the folkloristic point of view, these rumours in the form of fake news, first presented in the function of a tall tale and further following the sliding truth scale of legends, constitute a part of coping strategies, so-called crisis humour, yet, on the other hand, also a belief story presenting positive imagery, which surrounds the mainly apocalyptically perceived pandemic period and interprets the human existence on a wider scale. Even if these fake news and memes have no truth value, they communicate an idea – nature recovers – and definitely offer hope and a feeling of well-being.
An imprint on Estonian folkloristics. Elmar Daniel Päss 120

Keywords: Elmar Päss, History of Estonian folklore, Martinmas customs and songs, Shrovetide customs and songs
Folklorist Elmar Daniel Päss (1901–1970) was one of the first researchers who was educated in folklore at the University of Tartu: the Chair of Folklore started work in the autumn of 1919, and Elmar Päss entered university in the autumn of 1922. Already as a student, he attracted the attention of folklore professor Walter Anderson with his study about drinking in Estonian proverbs and folk songs, submitted for a students' competition in 1924. There was no unified folklore archive in Tartu at the time (it was established in 1927). The study by Päss testified to his diligence (he examined collections of Estonian folklore both in Tartu and in Helsinki) as well as his ability to systematise and analyse voluminous material. He elaborated this study and defended it as his master's degree in 1926. After a year in military service, he started work as a folklore assistant at the University of Tartu. In 1933 he became a scientific grantee, to work on a dissertation about Estonian and Ingrian Martinmas songs. Although the first version of the manuscript was completed in 1935, he did not defend the thesis. On the one hand, new material on Martinmas customs was constantly piling up, on the other hand, the defence seemed to be postponed due to economic difficulties. The establishment of the Soviet rule in 1940 and the following war further distanced Päss from research work. In 1947 the Institute of Estonian Language and Literature was founded at the Academy of Sciences, and for three years he worked there as a folklore researcher. However, his main occupation was a schoolteacher. So his most fertile scientific career remained in the 1920s–1930s.
Three different intertwining directions can be distinguished in Päss' scientific work: a comparative study of songs, customs related to calendar, wedding, and work, and the lore of border regions. Against the more general background of folkloristics, Päss' research approaches are up to date: on the one hand, comparative and international research prevailing in the first decades of the century, on the other hand, considering the syncretic and functionalist viewpoint of lore that emerged in the late 1920s and in the 1930s. His studies of the customs and songs of Shrovetide and Martinmas could be part of classical Estonian folkloristics.

7 Up ist eine koffeinfreie Limonade mit Zitronen- und Limettengeschmack. Die Rechte an der Marke gehören in den USA der Dr Pepper Snapple Group und überall sonst PepsiCo oder deren Lizenznehmern.

Geschichte

7 Up wurde 1929 von Charles Leiper Grigg erfunden. Zuerst hieß das Produkt "Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda" und wurde zwei Wochen vor der Weltwirtschaftskrise 1929 zum ersten Mal verkauft. Der Name wurde später in 7 Up geändert. Es enthielt bis 1948 oder 1950 Lithiumcitrat, einen stimmungsstabilisierenden Wirkstoff, der in der Psychiatrie bei der Lithiumtherapie verwendet wird. Es wurde als Mittel gegen Kater vermarktet, zu dieser Zeit mit Invertzucker hergestellt und entsprechend mit dessen guter Aufnahme in den Körper beworben. Der Name 7 Up ist eine Anspielung an das Atomgewicht des Elementes Lithium, welches aufgerundet 7 beträgt.

In Deutschland und Österreich werden ausschließlich 7 Up mit Zitronen- und Limettengeschmack und 7 Up light verkauft, zeitweise auch "Mojito" (Minzgeschmack). In der Schweiz sind daneben 7 Up mit Grapefruit-Geschmack (auch als Light-Getränk) sowie die Produkte 7Up H2 Oh! mit Apfel- oder Zitronen- bzw. Limettengeschmack erhältlich. In anderen Ländern gibt es außerdem noch 7 Up Cherry mit Kirschgeschmack, Diet 7 Up, Diet 7 Up Cherry sowie 7 Up plus in verschiedenen Geschmacksrichtungen.

Die Rezeptur wurde verändert und enthält nun zusätzlich Stevioglycoside als Süßstoff. Des Weiteren wurde der Zuckergehalt von 9 Gramm/100 ml auf 7 Gramm/100 ml gesenkt. Diese Veränderung betrifft nicht den amerikanischen Markt.

Per 2022 ging die Exklusivlizenz in der Schweiz von der Aproz Sources Minérales zu Feldschlösschen Getränke über.

Then I Got To Thinking...: Thoughts about my Birthday.
It's truly amazing how quickly Birthdays come and go as the years pass by us.
I had a really good Birthday this year. The celebration was amazing, and I took a few moments while surrounded by some of my family and friends to just reflect.
"how did I get so lucky to marry this guy."
He is always happy to do what he can to make me feel special, especially during my Birthdays. This year, he sent my best girlfriends from college gift cards for SouthWest to fly up to visit me for the weekend. He rented a limo to take us wine tasting, emailed and organized a little surprise gathering with a few of my close girlfriends at my favorite restaurant so we could all celebrate together to end our day wine tasting.
What really struck me, was his thoughtfulness... the little details that he paid so much attention to. In the airline gift cards he sent to my girlfriends, he sent a little note explaining how much they mean to me and why he wanted them to come.
He pre-ordered and picked out the balloons, cupcakes, candles, and my favorite appetizers and planned out how to make it come together. He packed my coat in the limo because he knew I would be cold after the sun went down. He woke up in the morning to make me and the girls coffee.
I'm grateful for the tangible items, but I am mostly thankful for the heart behind them.
On Easter I was grocery shopping with my mom when we ran into him and his firefighting work crew in the meat section. I kept my eyes on him as I walked near him, and when he looked up and saw me, his entire facial expression brightened up and a big smile filled his face and eyes as he held his arms out to hug me. I know it sounds cheesy, but the butterflies in my belly went crazy. We surely aren't a perfect couple, but this guy has a way of getting to me.
I know that bad and unfortunate things in life can happen to anyone at anytime.
I always hear people say "you don't know what you have until it's gone..."
I appreciate this man, his beautiful heart and soul, and even his flaws.
I am thankful everyday for my generous and incredible parents, amazing family, and the beautiful women in my life that I am lucky enough to call my friends.
So, as I embark on this next year of my life... I understand that change is inevitable, challenges will fall into my lap, and many new lessons will be learned. But I also begin this new year with a deep gratitude for the people in my life that are constantly building my character, encouraging me, loving me unconditionally, and riding with me through the experiences on this crazy roller coaster of life.
I have about 49372 pictures from the weekend, and I will recap and share all of the details so I can look back and remember.
But for now, here are a few of my faves from the weekend.
These girls have a special place in my heart.
The cake and present from the girls.
It was a beautiful weekend, surely one I will never forget!

Video: This (physical) filing cabinet is interactive
Designer Jaap de Maat of London's Royal College of Art recently debuted an exhibit titled "I Know What You Did Last Summer."
As GizMag's Adam Williams reports, the exhibit is essentially an autonomous filing cabinet designed to follow people around.
"In the digital age it has become easier to look back with great accuracy," de Maat explained in a project description.
"But this development contains hidden dangers, as those stored recollections can easily be misinterpreted and manipulated. That sobering thought should rule our online behavior, because the traces we leave behind now will follow us around for ever."
According to Williams, "I Know What You Did Last Summer" is built around a modded filing cabinet fitted with an electric wheelchair (+ battery), an Atmel-based Arduino board, a BT2S Bluetooth interface and HC-SR04 distance sensors.
So, how does it work? Well, the cabinet is linked to a webcam via Bluetooth, which scans the room for movement.
"When the webcam finds a person, it sends the relevant location to the Arduino, which in turn controls the wheelchair motors and directs the cabinet toward that person," Williams added.

Daniel Silva, ex CNN TV executive, is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of over 16 books.
Daniel has been placed in the same category as John le Carré and Graham Greene. He has been called his generation's finest writer of international intrigue and one of the greatest American spy novelists ever. Compelling, passionate, haunting, brilliant: these are the words that have been used to describe the work of Daniel Silva.
Silva burst onto the scene in 1997 with his electrifying bestselling debut, The Unlikely Spy, a novel of love and deception set around the Allied invasion of France in World War II. His second and third novels, The Mark of the Assassin and The Marching Season, were also instant New York Times bestsellers and starred two of Silva's most memorable characters: CIA officer Michael Osbourne and international hit man Jean-Paul Delaroche.
It was Silva's fourth novel however, The Kill Artist, that would alter the course of his career. The novel featured a character described as one of the most memorable and compelling in contemporary fiction, the art restorer and sometime Israeli secret agent Gabriel Allon, and though Silva did not realize it at the time, Gabriel's adventures had only just begun.
Silva knew from a very early age that he wanted to become a writer, but his first profession would be journalism. Born in Michigan, raised and educated in California, he was pursuing a master's degree in international relations when he received a temporary job offer from United Press International to help cover the 1984 Democratic National Convention in San Francisco. Later that year Silva abandoned his studies and joined UPI fulltime, working first in San Francisco, then on the foreign desk in Washington, and finally as Middle East correspondent in Cairo and the Persian Gulf.
In 1987, while covering the Iran-Iraq war, he met NBC correspondent Jamie Gangel. They were married later that year. Silva returned to Washington and went to work for CNN.
In 1995 he confessed to Jamie that his true ambition was to be a novelist. With her support and encouragement he secretly began work on the manuscript that would eventually become The Unlikely Spy. He left CNN in 1997 after the book's successful publication and began writing full time.
When not writing he can usually be found roaming the stacks of the Georgetown University library, where he does much of the research for his books. Though all of Silva's books have been New York Times and national bestsellers, his success has not been limited to the United States. His books have been translated into more than 25 languages and have been published across Europe and around the world.
He lives in Washington with his wife Jamie and their twins Lily and Nicholas. .
The Kill Artist
The chief of the Israeli Intelligence recalls two former agents in order to eliminate top Palestinian terrorist. One agent is now an art restorer, the other a fashion model. Ten years before on a mission to destroy the Arab Black September group they were briefly lovers. Now their pasts and their enemies come back to(…)
The English Assassin
In Allon's latest adventure, The English Assassin, he comes out of retirement once again and finds himself enmeshed in a murder investigation whose roots reach back to the cataclysmic policies of Nazi Germany. Allon's involvement begins when he accepts a commission to restore a priceless Raphael original. He travels to Zurich, only to find that(…)
"Who the hell are you?" Benjamin Stern's rude question to the intruder in his apartment was answered quickly by an equally rude — and fatal — bullet.
A Death in Vienna
It was an ordinary-looking photograph. Just the portrait of a man. But the very sight of it chilled Allon to the bone.

Little Totham is a village in Essex, England, with a population measured at 400 in the 2011 Census. The parish extends from the extensive common and heath-land of Tiptree down to the River Blackwater. The village lies about 6 miles 10 km) from Maldon and 5 miles (8 km) from Tiptree and lies on the back road between Goldhanger and the Maldon to Colchester road. It is part of Maldon District Council.

Most of the population live on the edge of the parish adjoining Tolleshunt Major and centred on the main road running through the village past The Swan public house and children's play area. The rest of the parish is agricultural and the roads and field patterns remain much as they were at the Domesday survey of 1085.

History
The halls of Little Totham and Rook Hall have their origins in the 12th century, and the architecture of this period is seen in the North and South doorways of the parish church of All Saints, which lies adjacent to Little Totham Hall (Farm) in the centre of the parish. The parish church has an active community which provides community support in the form of pastoral visits, caring and community activities. This 12th-century church houses one of the oldest recorded stone doorways in the country (c. AD 1085), and there is a comprehensive history document within the church.

The present main road through the village was originally a track used by smugglers bringing liqueur, silks and other cloths from the River Blackwater to the plains where travellers would exchange them for money. In Little Totham, on the edge of the River Blackwater and in the fields near Osea Island there is evidence of man dwelling there from as far back as the Bronze Age 6,000 years ago. There is evidence of the smelting of ores using the wood from the extensive forests which covered the area.

The main farms developed in the area in the 11th century, and life revolved around these until the development of the dwellings along the smugglers' route in the late 16th century. Notably among these is the White Horse (now the White House), which was a pub and boarding house until the beginning of the 20th century. There are extensive patterns of footpaths across the area which lead to the farms and were developed by farm workers walking to and from work. There has always been a history of itinerant workers both on the farms and in the smuggling trade and these have over the years rested, albeit temporarily, on the Totham plains.

'The Plains' which form some of the largest areas of common land in the country are within the village boundary and there are many pleasant walks across them.

In the mid- to late 19th and early 20th centuries more substantial farm workers' cottages were built around the "main" road and the village grew. In the late 19th century three more ale houses sprang up to deal with the thirst of these farm workers. The 17th-century residential property near the extensive village pond became The Swan Ale House and more latterly a Public House. Further along the road the White Hart (now demolished) was for a period an ale house and off-licence. Along Plains Road, The Eagle (now a private house) was an ale house mainly serving itinerant travellers who came seasonally to work on the land. It was at this time that the Peculiar People's Chapel was built on the common. This is still an active Evangelical Church.

The present village is a mixture of these old houses and more modern development, and the community is a mixture of people. People who work from home, commute to Maldon, Witham, Chelmsford, Colchester and London, are retired or craftsmen. The farms are still working mainly arable crops, present cereals and rape. There are hen and turkey farms, pigs and sheep. There has been some diversification where gravel has been extracted and the land laid down to lakes for nature trails and fishing.

Car show and Fête
Every year, hosted upon the Village Green, in Little Totham, is a Classic Car Show, and a Village Fête. The Car Show always attracts attention within the surroundings of the Village, as does the Fête, and there is usually a fantastic turnout of cars, ranging from the early 1920s to the 1980s.

The current event is organised by David Oram and his family, and the team from All Saints Church, all working with the parish council.

Legislature Misses Opportunity for Climate Justice & Equity
August 15, 2018 bcan
Thanks to guest blogger Andrea Nyamekye, of Neighbor to Neighbor, for co-authoring this post.
The Massachusetts legislature just concluded its 2-year law-making cycle. While it did succeed in making some progress on climate change policy, the state legislature severely missed the mark on justice and equity legislation. The climate change policy that passed was full of contradictions. And the bills that carried our hopes for climate justice — for addressing the ways communities of color and low-income communities have been considered sacrifice zones for pollution from landfills, gas compressor stations, pipelines, toxins in our homes, schools, and playgrounds — those bills were abandoned by legislative leaders in the process of finalizing energy and climate policy change.
BostonCAN is a member of the Green Justice Coalition (GJC), which has worked tirelessly over the past two years to promote equity in our state's energy and environmental policies. This legislative session, GJC has prioritized environmental justice and access to solar energy as critical issues facing our communities, right now. The Environmental Justice bill would have addressed the fact that Massachusetts scored on the failing end of a scale created by the Center for Effective Government in 2016 to rate states based on the exposure of people of color and residents below the poverty line to hazardous facilities. Ours was one of just two states with an "F" grade.
The Solar Access bill would have encouraged developers to build solar energy in low-to-middle income communities, and environmental justice communities, and provide meaningful savings for these customers. We've already seen how current statutes limit the potential for community solar to benefits our Boston neighbors. Three churches in Boston — Bethel AME in Jamaica Plain, Second Church in Dorchester, and St. Augustine and St. Martin in Roxbury — all planned to use their roofs to generate affordable electricity for their congregants, but had to curtail their projects due to restrictions on the amount of electricity they could put into the grid at fair prices.
The State legislature has fallen short in its ability to push for effective climate and environmental legislation, leaving our black and brown communities left out, once again, in not only clean energy legislation, but in immigrant rights legislation, and wage theft as well. As Khalida Smalls of Community Labor United noted after the session closed, "This country, this state, and this city have a history steeped in racism and discrimination, and it continues to be true today. Moving these two legislative bills could have been major stepping stones in ensuring that all communities in our Commonwealth have the right to breathe deeply and live sustainably."
While legislators boosted the Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) annual increase to 2 percent (doubling its effectiveness), that change only continues through 2030, when it drops back to 1 percent. We had been pushing for an indefinitely increase to 3 percent. The law also set the goals for 1,000 megawatt hours of energy storage and 1,600 additional megawatts of offshore wind, and expanded energy efficiency, but it also created a new precedent that allows energy production from the burning of trash and biomass to be deemed "renewable."
In an article published in Commonwealth Magazine, Khalida Smalls wrote, "inaction has consequences." We will not rest as we seek to build a strong enough base to demand urgent and just climate change policy in the 2019-2010 legislature. And speaking of which, the deadline for registering to vote in time for the Sept. 4 primary is today, August 15. Voting may be far from sufficient, but it sure is necessary!

Since 1846, Dutch textile brand Vlisco creates colourful wax printed fabrics that are popular in Central and West Africa. The complex traditional production technique and Vlisco's high standards result in some fabrics ending up as waste products. After extensive material research, designer Simone Post gave new life to these exceptional leftovers.
Using folding and laser cutting techniques, Simone created patterned cloth space dividers. Other 'misprints' were wound into circular rugs or shaped into seat covers. With endless possible colour combinations, a unique product is created every time.

Flood mitigation reduces the overall risk of structure experiencing flood damage, and also reduces the severity of flood damage when it occurs. Examples of mitigation in a community may include planning and zoning, floodplain management, discouraging development in high risk flood areas, or providing outreach and education. Examples of mitigation for homeowners may include purchasing flood insurance, elevation of structures, or completely relocating out of the floodplain.
Structural mitigation projects include levees, dams, floodwalls, jetties, retention ponds, and many other examples. Structural mitigation projects aim to divert water away from people and communities. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is the federal agency tasked with building and maintain major flood mitigation projects. In Nebraska, the Natural Resources Districts (NRDs) provide flood mitigation projects at a more local level.
The purpose of non-structural flood mitigation is to change the way that people interact with the floodplain, flood risk, and also aim to move people away from flood-prone areas. Projects may include maintaining floodplain as open space, elevating structures, and in-depth community flood planning.
The Flood Mitigation Assistance Grant Program (FMA) is administered by NeDNR and provides financial assistance for either planning or projects that assist in decreasing long-term risk of flood damage to structures insured under the National Flood Insurance Program.
The Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) is a mitigation grant that results from a presidential disaster declaration. After a disaster, Nebraska would receive 15% of the total public assistance funding that is made available via the declaration.
The goal of the HMGP is to reduce the loss of life and property from any future disaster. The Nebraska Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) manages the HMGP. For more information regarding the HMPG in Nebraska, visit the NEMA HMGP website, or contact Molly Bargmann at NEMA at 402-471-7182.
The Pre-Disaster Mitigation grant (PDM) provides funding for hazard mitigation planning and projects the reduce the risk from disasters. The goal of the PDM is a regular stream of funding that helps reduce the need for funding from actual disaster declarations.
PDM grants are awarded competitively and Nebraska does not get any particular allocation. PDM funds can fund similar activities to the HMGP and FMA. The Nebraska Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) manages the PDM funds. For more information regarding PDM grants contact Molly Bargmann at NEMA at 402-471-7182.

Alfa Bank asked to check Mikhail Abyzov's company on fraud
According to RBC, the creditors of Mikhail Abyzov's E4 Group decided not to limit themselves to claims for recovery of debt and recognition of the company's bankrupcy; now they are initiaing a criminal case.
Statement in GUBEP on the company's management on suspicion of fraud filed Alfa Bank.
The fact that Alfa Bank has filed an application to the General Directorate of Economic Security and Anti-Corruption (GUBEP) Ministry of Internal Affairs, RBC said one of the E4 creditors.
A law enforcement source confirmed that such an application is received and it is being checked. Thus, the bank's representatives are trying to find out whether the actions of management of the Group E4 signs of illegal activities (fraud) in the field of lending, he added.

"The company believes that under current conditions it is always possible to find a mutually acceptable solution. The parties must find common solutions in the negotiations or pazreshat disputes in court ", - he said. According to him, the law enforcement agencies in the E4 is not accessed, the company believes that there is no reason for this.
Abyzova only representative recalled that the during the transition to the civil service (in 2012 Abizov holds the post of Minister for "open government") has transferred all of the assets in trust, and does not comment on their current state.
Lenders began to plead with E4 in late 2014. The total debt of the company on December 31, 2013 amounted to more than 31 billion rubles. (Data SPARK-Interfax, more recent data are not available), and much of it was short.
Alfa-Bank group has 10.9 billion rubles., Of which 5.65 billion rubles. - Loans and 5.2 billion rubles. was granted in the form of bank guarantees, said a source close to the bank. By the end of 2014 the total amount of Alfa-Bank claims to E4 exceeded 6 billion rubles. The Group also has to Sberbank 4 billion rubles.

This is a 63.99% stake in the company "Elektrotsentromontazh" (it remains at E4 6%).
In addition to banks, claims against the company began to show customers. The first to give up its services decided to "Inter RAO", for which the E4 built combined-cycle unit at the Perm GRES. General contractor violated the turnaround time of more than eight months, explained the representative of the "Inter RAO". The company terminated the contract and demanded the return of the advance E4 (its size is not disclosed).
Contractor was dissatisfied and "daughter" of "Gazpromenergoholding" OGK-2, which has already filed lawsuits to E4 in excess of 1 billion rubles. E4 reported that her "daughter" of "E4-Tsentrenergomontazh" suspended work at the Serov GRES OGK-2 (the cost of the contract for the construction of the new unit was 17.8 billion rubles.).
In the production of the Moscow Arbitration Court also in bankruptcy proceedings against E4. The first such request in October 2014but the court turned the company "EMA". It is seeking another seven creditors, one of the last application to intervene shall be submitted by January 15 "Atomstroyenergo" said RBC lawyer representing the interests of the enterprise.
