Under the EU proposal, refugees could be held in closed camps at the border for up to 16 weeks | Photo: Kacper Pempel
Asylum law
EU criticized for move to restrict asylum rights at Belarus border
Published on : 2021/12/06
By DW Published on : 2021/12/06
A move by the EU Commission to restrict asylum rights at the bloc's external border with Belarus has come in for sharp criticism. Meanwhile, a controversial border protection law has already come into force in Poland.
"We are a family. When one of us is under attack, the rest of us will be there for him," said Margaritis Schinas, vice president of the European Commission, speaking to reporters earlier this week. Schinas, the former EU spokesman who now represents Greece in the Commission, described a proposal to "temporarily" reduce some asylum rights in EU member states Poland and the Baltic states as an act of "tangible solidarity."
Schinas introduced the plan to suspend EU law at its borders with Belarus for the next six months along with Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johansson, who is responsible for migration. European treaties, he said Wednesday, do allow for "exceptional measures" like this in an "emergency situation."
According to the proposal, migrants could be held in closed camps at the border for up to 16 weeks, to undergo a correspondingly extended asylum process. The registration time would be extended to four weeks, and faster deportations will explicitly be authorized. EU interior ministers could approve the proposal next week without the European Parliament having to approve the "emergency measure."
The move came under immediate criticism from some members of the European Parliament, who called the new approach unacceptable, especially given the decreasing numbers of asylum-seekers at the border. Instead of helping the people on the ground, said Birgit Sippel, spokesperson for the Party of European Socialists, the measures "play straight into the hands of governments that want to use the plight of vulnerable migrants to spread anxiety and fear about a migration crisis at the EU's borders."
When presenting their "emergency measures," the two commissioners acknowledged that the situation in Belarus was de-escalating.They didn't, however, comment when asked why it was still necessary to limit asylum rights in the area.
Aid agencies criticize move to put 'politics over peoples' lives'
"It is extremely doubtful whether the European Commission will be able to put the genie back in the bottle after it has spent 18 months standing by, for the most part, as systematic human rights violations are committed against people seeking protection," said Erik Marquardt, a German migration expert with the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance in the EU Parliament.
In the past few months, for example, the Polish Border Guard agency has published a daily tally of pushbacks, the summary deportation of people from EU territory, which are prohibited under international law. However, the Polish government has yet to be criticized by Brussels for the practice.

Warsaw is also still preventing people from reporting freely at the border, and hindering access for aid organizations. A new border protection law, which came into force on Wednesday to replace the state of emergency at the border, has legalized the existing restrictions. Under the new law, the interior minister can establish a 15-kilometer (9-mile) wide exclusion zone at the border, effectively creating a legal vacuum.
Both the Polish Senate and the country's commissioner for human rights have expressed doubts about the law's legality, arguing that it contradicts the Polish constitution. Rights groups have also spoken out against the legislation.
"Stopping, detaining and criminalising people trying to find safety in Europe breaks international and European asylum law," said aid organization Oxfam on Thursday. "Supporting the detention of migrants at EU borders puts politics over peoples' lives."
"Asylum rules should be upheld, not allowed to be side-stepped by countries via so-called exceptional measures," said Amnesty International in a press statement, adding that the border arrivals could be easily handled under the existing rules. The group added that it was alarmed by the Commission's proposal, which it said would "violate people's rights and exacerbate the humanitarian crisis."
The European Commission, however, has yet to comment on Poland's new law.
Pushbacks reported in Greece, Croatia, Bulgaria
Poland isn't the only EU member state that has been accused of carrying out illegal pushbacks. In Greece, media outlets have uncovered evidence of several cases, yet the government in Athens has maintained that the numerous reports are false. A recent case made headlines in The New York Times on Wednesday, just as Schinas was announcing the Commission's proposal, once again shedding light on the practices of Greek border guards.
The article said an interpreter working for the EU border agency Frontex was forcibly taken to a remote warehouse with a group of about 100 migrants, including women and children. The interpreter, who is originally from Afghanistan but has been living in the EU legally for years, said they were beaten and stripped. Police allegedly seized their mobile phones, money and documents, before putting them into dinghies and pushing them back across the Evros River into Turkish territory.
Home Affairs Commissioner Johansson said she was "extremely concerned by [the] account." The New York Times reported that the man handed over audio and video evidence of the abuse and the pushback carried out by Greek authorities, and wrote that the EU "which has mostly looked the other way on abuses of migrants, is now being forced to confront the problem."
This, however, is by no means certain. The illegal practice has also reportedly been taking place along the EU border in Croatia and Bulgaria, despite forceful criticism by Filippo Grandi, the UN high commissioner for refugees, during a recent visit to the European Parliament.

Alec had the most liked content!
Really nicely done. It looks great. I'm wondering how did you go about turning the hair geometry into actual hair?
Alec replied to teknow's topic in Dynamics, Hair, Thinking Particles, MoGraph etc.
Oh okay. I thought you just wanted to know of a time remap feature. Not too sure about this one. Your user data button would have to set several values and put down keyframes in a single click in order to be useful. Maybe you could do this with a python script but I don't know enough about that to offer any advice.
Sorry I put this in the wrong section. I didn't realize there is a new sub forum for 3rd party renderers.
Wow nice job. Modulo seems like a very powerful function. I'm glad I know what it does now and that it's there. So that should make it easier to add in more segments and get more details without having to make individual settings for each segment.
Thanks again for all your help with this. I'm starting to understand expresso a little better now. Here's a scene i was able to create by adopting your layout. Sketch_062916.c4d My expresso group is far from elegant though. basically I had to copy the entire chain for each segment and reference a different hierarchy each time. I also had to add in increments of ten on each chain to the index output of the object index node before sending it into the point index input.

Health workforce response to Covid-19: What pandemic prepardness planning and action at federal and state levels in Germany?
Köppen J, Hartl K, Maier CB
International Journal Health Planning and Management
DOI: 10.1002/hpm.3146 [1]
The Covid‐19 pandemic has required countries to prepare their health workforce for a rapid increase of patients. This research aims to analyse the planning and health workforce policies in Germany, a country with a largely decentralised workforce governance mechanism.
Systematic search between 18 and 31 May 2020 at federal and 16 states on health workforce action and planning (websites of ministries of health, public health authorities), including pandemic preparedness plans and policies. The search followed World Health Organisation (WHO) Europe's health workforce guidance on Covid‐19. Content analysis was performed, informed by the themes of WHO.
The pandemic preparedness plans consisted of no or limited information on how to expand and prepare the health workforce during pandemics. The 16 states varied considerably regarding implementing strategies to expand health workforce capacities. Only one state adopted a policy on task‐shifting despite a federal law on task‐shifting during pandemics.
Planning on the health workforce, its capacity and skill‐mix during pandemics was limited in the pandemic response plans. Actions during the peak of the pandemic varied considerably across states, were implemented ad hoc and with limited planning. Future action should focus on integrated planning and evaluation of workforce policies.

An object that can be used to hold or transport something.
I am attracted to and notice containers, vessels, receptacles. I am usually drawn to the shape, the size, the lines, the curves, the color or a combination thereof. I will share a few containers in and around my home that just make me smile. This first one makes me smile because the hubs and N made it. What bird would not want to eat out of this?
This second vessel also houses bird seed and is a new addition to the outdoors. The birds (and squirrels) seem to love it. My Canon will definitely be capturing some little birds feasting on the sunflower seeds.
The 3rd one usually sits in my kitchen window. The yellow band around the top definitely makes me happy.
I bought this owl because I adore owls but also because it reminded me of a special friend. I just love the contrast between the white container and the colorful pencils it holds.
The next one also now contains pencils. I preserved the Andy Warhol Campbell's cans for N to house his pencils, colored pencils, pens, scissors, etc.
The 6th one (if you are keeping count) most of you may notice from IKEA. I love this one for it's shape, curves, and color. It usually houses fresh fruit and sits on my kitchen counter.
#7 OK, the next two are my favorite containers that hold beverages. This first one is one of those mugs you can freeze. I love to take it camping on the rare occasion when we have electricity. A nice chilled glass of white wine with frozen raspberries sprinkled on top definitely makes me smile. This picture was taken in Kansas where we camped one night on our trek from NC to our new home in CO.
The 8th container also holds another one of my favorite beverages…COFFEE! This photo was taken at a campground in TN on our trek from NC to CO.
The 9th one is hanging in N's room and houses some of his Lego figures. It is one of the Old Printers' Type Cases, and I bought it from an Etsy shop several years ago.
And I may as well add a #10. I enjoy this one more than N even though he uses it every day. I love the color combo, the design, and the fact that it came with reusable plastic containers…no plastic bags needed.
Are you drawn to and notice containers, vessels, receptacles? Do you have a favorite one or two that just make you smile? Sometimes…it is the little things.
Like the images and its a great theme for a photo project.
@adrianpym, thank you very much for the kind comment and for visiting my blog. Maybe I will see this photo challenge one day?

First Lady Melania Trump Wore a Pith Helmet During Tour of Africa
Associated Press AP October 5, 2018 8:35 pm October 5, 2018 Off 221
First Lady Melania Trump is currently on her first international solo trip, visiting various countries in Africa over the course of a week, and it hasn't been without a few raised eyebrows.
Once again, FLOTUS' wardrobe—particularly, one white hat—has come under scrutiny. This morning in Kenya, she visited the Sneldrick Wildlife Elephant Project wearing a white button-down, khaki pants, and tall boots. By the afternoon, to go on a tour of Nairobi National Park, she had added another item to her outfit: a pith helmet.
PHOTO: SAUL LOEB
Quickly, people across the globe pointed out the jarring image, as pith helmets have long been associated with colonial rule, particularly in Africa and parts of Asia and the Middle East, and are considered a symbol of oppression.
https://twitter.com/texasinafrica/status/1048176051254448128
https://twitter.com/pauleenmwalo/status/1048199069959708672
https://twitter.com/KimberlyNFoster/status/1048276567334555648
https://twitter.com/owenbarder/status/1048182942030340099
https://twitter.com/dadakim/status/1048206213991677953
Over the course of her time in the White House, Mrs. Trump's fashion has gotten a lot of attention, with the public reading into the meaning behind every wardrobe choice, even as FLOTUS declines to offer any. Still, many have followed it closely: The New York Times reports that the hashtag #FLOTUSinAfricaBingo, started by a political science professor in California, is tracking what could be interpreted as insensitive behavior, from outfits to activities, during FLOTUS' trip.
The White House has yet to release a statement on the pith helmet from today's visit to Kenya. The East Wing did release an official summary, though, with FLOTUS saying: "The hospitality that I received made the experience so special. I was awed by the beauty of Nairobi National Park and was very interested to learn more about Kenya's conservation efforts. The Nest is a prime example of what it means to protect and nurture our next generation—seeing their efforts shape the lives of so many children is something I will never forget. I look forward to visiting again in the future."

We have a great resource in University of Minnesota's FINBIN data that Bob Craven's team gathers along with the diligent work done by farm management teams in analyzing and summarizing the results. That data provides some perspective on how financial results have dramatically changed since the go-go years of 2007 to 2012 for the grain industry. In my assessment, the period from 2007 to 2012 was an economic aberration and the periods prior and post 2007 to 2012 may be more the normal standard.
An economic aberration or not, record profits during the period from 2007 to 2012 were set up by a convergence of timely events. To start these events was the growth in emerging nations tied with the great recession that resulted in the Federal Reserve lowering interest rates and devaluing the dollar, which encouraged agricultural exports. Add the biofuel mandates and weather factors which occasionally resulted in grain supply shortages and you have the fuel for record profits. For the group of nearly one thousand grain producers represented in FINBIN data, the median net farm income from 2007 to 2012 was approximately $170,000 in constant 2014 dollars. Contrast that to the five-year period of 2002 to 2006 where the profits were approximately $67,000 for producers in the data summary. The period from 2007 to 2012 exhibits nearly 2.5 times greater profits than the prior period. The bottom line for grain producers is to realistically recognize this recent super cycle is not typical.
Next time I will discuss the adjustments producers will need to make to be successful in the current economic environment.

That's right, ladies and gentlemen! The 2017 Los Angeles Dodgers have swept the Diamondbacks and will return to the NLCS for the second consecutive year!
This is how Monday's 3-1 victory went down!
Let's begin with the offense. The Dodgers got on the board in the first inning thanks to an RBI groundout off the bat of Cody Bellinger that scored Chris Taylor, who led off the game with a double. The game would then be pretty quiet for a few innings until the 5th inning. Cody Bellinger came up with two outs and nobody on and drove one to left-center field! His 40th of the year, including the regular season, and his first career postseason home run!
With the Dodgers leading 2-0, Daniel Descalso would come up in the bottom of the 5th and get one back for Arizona. But it wouldn't be long before the Dodgers would regain their two-run lead. The very next inning, Austin Barnes would come up and follow Cody Bellinger's lead with a solo shot of his own!
That would be it for the Dodgers' offense, and all they really needed thanks to exceptional pitching. Yu Darvish went a total of five innings and gave up just one run on two hits. The rest of the game was split between Tony Cingrani, Brandon Morrow, Kenta Maeda (who was phenomenal), and Kenley Jansen. They gave up just one hit between the four of them!
The Dodgers will either face the Cubs or the Nationals in the NLCS, with game four of their series coming on Tuesday. The Cubs are currently leading the series 2-1. Who would you rather face? Let us know in the comments below! Go Dodgers!
Anyone else notice how different Maeda's demeanor is when he is a reliever vs a starter? As a starter he seems timid, as a reliever he is aggressive. I think he he should be a high leverage guy in the bullpen next yr, especially with the abundance of starters we have.
I kinda agree with you Daniel. To me, he does seems more focused and willing to step up his aggressiveness with more gusto. He looked really good out of the pen.
It reminds me of Eric Gagne. He was a mediocre starter and then they moved him to the bullpen and he was lights out!
I want the Cubs – Defeat the defending World Series champs to earn our spot in the Word Series! Go Dodgers!!!!


Details of P&O Cruises' new ship to be launched in 2020 were unveiled in London tonight.
The 180,000-ton vessel – whose name will be chosen in a competition – will feature an all-weather entertainment hub called The Dome. The area, based around a pool with a retractable stage, will set the stage for aerial performances, roof projections and 'immersive' shows.
At the event, at the Sky Bar in London, guests were also entertained by a sample of new shows coming to P&O Cruises ships.
TV presenter Jonathan Wilkes is launching a new stage production called Evolution – described as Mad Max meets Avatar – on Azura from tomorrow.
The energetic 50-minute show will be staged twice nightly.
West End star Ruthie Henshall is also introducing a show called Money Makes The World Go Round to Arcadia from next month.
CEO David Noyes said guests showed 'tremendous loyalty' to the 180-year-old brand, sailing year after year to the extent they became friends and family to the crew. 'That's what makes P&O Cruises even more special,' he said.
'A whole new generation' of cruisers had been attracted by the launch of the last big ship, Britannia, said Mr Ludlow.
The two men summed up the passengers' philosophy as wanting to be abroad while feeling at home; liking to be new and innovative while feeling things remain the same; wanting to dress up an hour after defining what it is to dress down; and loving our children while enjoying peace and quiet.
More details of the ship will be released in due course.

Shri Aurobindo Ashram
Aurobindo Ashram or the Sri Aurobindo Ashram is a spiritual group (ashram) situated in the union territory of Pondicherry. The ashram was a small community that expanded over some time as more and more disciples of Aurobindo Ghose gathered around to seek spirituality. Aurobindo Ghose founded this ashram after he left his political career and aspired to inherit spiritualism in his life. A few followers of Aurobindo joined him in the ashram with the same aim of seeking spirituality. Located in eastern Pondicherry, Sri Aurobindo Ashram has become a hub of tourists who are inclined towards divinity and simplicity in their lifestyle. The ashram is popular not only in India but also in other countries because of the work put forth by the community towards the healing of humanity. The ashram in its initial days only had a few buildings but later, as more and more people joined, the ashram grew bigger and presently, it consists of many small buildings that are adjacent to each other. The ashram provides all the basic needs of its members for living a healthy and simple life. There is a library in the ashram where members can read and learn about the history and teachings of the place. Also, there are various cultural facilities like dance, theatre, music, arts, and sports for the all-round development of the members. The ashram is managed by a board of five trustees who make sure that the legacy and vision of Aurobindo Ghose remains in the ashram.

Aishwarya Ramamoorthy Adventure Camp Experience in Kotagiri
A must visit place if you want to stay at kotagiri. A fun camping experience where there's a stunning view and you can reach a lot of view points and waterfalls within a few minutes of the hike. The guide we had was a very friendly person and had a lot of information about the local Flora and fauna, tribes and geography. One thing that stood out was the cook, Mr. Kannan whose food was absolute yum. Name it and he would get it for u ! Though it was a camp we were provided with cosy blankets and pillows. Clean toilets and hot water facility are a big plus. Overall, a try worth it.

I can hardly believe how fast summer has gone by and that it is already the first Friday of September. That means it's time for another round of First Fridays Blog Hop with the Glitter Queens Team 😍 This month we are all creating something fall inspired. I know I always say it but, I really can't wait to see what everyone has created!
You may know that today is not only the first Friday in September but it is actually the first of September. But you probably don't know that in our house, today is a pretty special day. You see today is my AMAZING Hubby's birthday and so it's kinda like a holiday for us as we celebrate the wonderful Husband, Father and all around GREAT man we are blessed to have in our lives.
I love the effect of adding a touch of embossing paste. I literally just spread a tiny bit and then just because I LOVE LOVE GLITTER, I sprinkled a bit of dazzling diamonds to create a glittery snowy texture 😙 Next I layered the trees with very vanilla card stock and slightly offset before adding some mini stampin' dimensionals to give a nice depth effect. To complete the look I added 2 cute little deers stamped in early espresso onto the back of some foil frenzy paper and added more mini stampin' dimensionals to the back of one for more dimension.
Thanks for stopping by and be sure to continue along the hop because up next is talented Davette. And if you loose your place along the way, below is a list of everyone hopping along with us today.

MENOTTI Amelia al ballo Overture
BARBER Concerto for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 14
BEYER World Out of Balance [world premiere]
This concert — and our season — opens with the work of two composers very much in dialogue with one another: Gian Carlo Menotti and Samuel Barber, who began a lifelong personal and creative partnership when they were teens at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. Menotti's Amelia al ballo and Barber's Violin Concerto were written within three years of each other, in part when the two men were primarily based in Switzerland, living as common-law spouses.
Huntley Beyer's epic new oratorio, World Out of Balance, was composed during the lockdown period of the pandemic in collaboration with the work's sponsors, Doug and Dana Durasoff. The text sources range widely, but the piece is structured as a dialogue between movements such as "Racism Asks" and "Love Answers." This piece is both powerful and honest, but also optimistic and life-affirming.

Kian Abouhossein guides the 11-strong J.P. Morgan team up one rung to first place for the first time. Investors applaud the team for publishing "timely and in-depth reports" that keep "a solid focus on balance sheets." In September 2008 the analysts downgraded Lloyds TSB Group (now Lloyds Banking Group) from neutral to underweight, at 285.75p, warning that the British bank would experience severe capital constraints owing to its planned acquisition of Halifax Bank of Scotland. The stock had plummeted to 50.69p by late December 2009, a loss of 82.3 percent that trailed the sector by an eye-popping 58.9 percentage points. Abouhossein, 37, was born in Germany and moved to Vancouver, Canada, when he was 16. He earned a bachelor's degree in finance from the University of British Columbia in 1995, then moved to London, where he worked as a banks analyst at UBS and HSBC Global Asset Management before joining J.P. Morgan in 2001.
Leaping from runner-up to second place is the Credit Suisse team of ten, co-led by Jonathan Pierce and newcomer Guillaume Tiberghien. "No one comes close to Jonathan on the U.K. banks, and no one can touch Guillaume on the French," observes one money manager. Clients applaud the group's valuation-driven upgrade of Barclays to outperform in March, at 64.80p. By December 31 shares of the British bank had catapulted to 276p and outpaced the sector by a whopping 180.3 points. The team reinstated coverage of Natixis with an outperform rating in July, at €1.36, on the belief that the distressed French bank's recent restructuring would "provide investors with a new sustainable business model." The stock had leapt 161 percent, to €3.55, and blown past the sector by 146.4 points by the end of last year.
Unranked last year, the 11-analyst Nomura International crew jointly helmed by Robert Law and newcomer Karl (Jonathan) Peace finishes third. Lauded for its ability to "provide a thorough understanding of the dynamics driving the banking sector," in the words of one investor, the team initiated coverage of DnB Nor in March with a buy recommendation, at €23.30, on the strength of the Norwegian bank's domestic loan portfolio. By year-end the stock had soared to €62.75.
