About Time Live Recap Episode 7
So, the big problem isn't that the ex is back, it's that Doha's time stopping/rewinding abilities stop working when she is around. Or at least that is what it looked like at the end of the last episode. So she is the ex that can literally kill Michaela by proximity. Let's see if Michaela can find a way around this or if she will just go sulk somewhere until Doha realizes he actually loves her (and runs around looking for her).

The stare off from the last episode continues. MC looks at her wrist and sees that her time is ticking again. So her time is definitely dependent on him and not herself.
SB holds her hand out to shake hands with the ex. SB is the one that called her there and thanks hre for accepting her proposal. DH walks off right away. he just turns his back and leaves. SB introduces MC to the ex, she will be her under/sub. It looks like the ex is the lead in the musical.
Cut to the ex telling JY that she does not need an under, she will do everything herself. But JY says he will decide those things. Later on, the entire team goes to the script reading. MC is too preoccupied with looking at her time ticking to focus. She thinks back to meeting the ex for the first time.
DH is also thinking about the ex as he looks out his window. He has a flashback. Him and the ex are walking outside, she was fired and walks off in a huff. DH doesn't think they can fire her at the reading right? But it looks like that is what happened. She says she is so angry, what should she be angry at? Later we see DH at the emergency room, he looks around for his ex in the triage center. It looks like she tried to kill herself after cutting her wrist, but was not successful. he asks her, why did you do this? Why, why?
Back to the present, DH asks SB why she picked her (his ex). SB says she has the right to pick whoever she wants. They are doing what they are doing based on the contract that they haven't signed yet. She picked her because the ex is the one that can wake both of them up, you think carefully about why I picked her.
DH is upset, but tries to stay calm as he talks to SB. SB tells him to have a good time with his first love or MC. She smiles and leaves.
The script reading wraps up. JY asks MC how the script reading was. he says that he decides everything so MC should be alert to take her spot. Don't mess up his name for picking an under for an actor that doesn't need an under.
In the hallway, the ex runs into DH. She tries to speak to him and says it is nice to see him again, but he just walks off.
MC drives them both home, I think her time stopped again. MC decides to talk about the ex and how she is like a goddess of an actress. But then someone cuts her off so she honks the horn like a raged maniac and puts her car in a faster gear.
DS and PSB wait for DH. They talk to each other a little bit. PSB wants him to get a health check, he looks too skinny. DS is all like, sure. DH comes in at that moment and asks for headache medicine. PSB says he never asks for headache medicine, what is up? DH tells him that he saw his ex today. SB recruited her as the main actress. PSB is a little alarmed at this and asks how this came about, she knows everything? DH explains that SB recruited her because she knows everything.
In her bedroom, MC thinks back to the ex telling her that she does not need an under, she will do everything. Ah, she is at her home. Her mother comes in to talk to her and tells her to talk to her if she has any trouble, don't just think about it by yourself.
SB and MC meet up. SB asks how the presents were and basically acts like a B. She says that DH looked like he saw a ghost when his ex showed up. She was the one that DH could not forget for a long long time. So SB casted her and brought her in. She was super poor, but she sang well. She wanted to be a musical actress. DH liked her. Whose story does this sound like? The ex, or you? Men never forget their first love. I thought about it. You are that replacement for his first love. it is better for everyone if he finishes it. I brought her here so that he realizes it.
MC tells her that it is very childish, she feels like she gets stupider listening to her. She gets up to leave. But SB tells her that his first love failed, that will happen to you as well. Remember what I told you.
MC leaves and drives home. her time is ticking. She thinks about DH and their happy times together.
VO – Your watch that says you have 80 days left, are you okay?
DH is also at home brooding about MC. She gets home with teary eyes. He tells her that seh is late today and sees her tears, but she just goes to her room. In her room she has a flashback about the script reading and all the other things that happened today. She looks at her wrist, the time is stopped.
She starts singing in the bathroom. DH is at the door, he asked her if she was okay, but MC just started singing instead of answering. She signs the entirety of one song or at least one stanza.
Later on, MC goes to the kitchen for a drink and then goes to walk to her room. But DH comes out and asks her what is up, are you angry at me, what happened? She just shakes him off and tells him to let her go. He wants to know what is going on. She tells him it is nothing, on days like this she still has to come back and stick with him due to her clock. She storms to her room.
She sits on the opposite wall from her room as if to get as far away from him while. Her time is ticking while she is sitting over there. She has 86 days.
MC's mother and brother go to visit her father in jail. They happily talk to him about working hard cooking and eating and all those things. He asks them if MC is coming today. Umma says that she worries about him still. Appa says that RH was a princess before him, but now she suffers a lot. She says he is not here on purpose, it is just a mistake.
Umma and brother go back home in the bus. he sends a text message to SH on accident and grummbles at his mother about it. SH wonders why he is contacting her and blocks his number.
Meanwhile, MC drops Dh off at the front of the building. She tells him that he can leave and seh will park around back. But it looks like she wants to tell him something so he hangs back. But she says it is nothing, she is late for practice. he gets out reluctantly.
MUSICAL PRACTICE
The ex sings one of teh songs to a piano. SH and MC both comment on how good she is as she continues singing. But then JY stops her and tells her that she should have more of a feeling of love. her emotion right now isn't that great, what does she think the feeling is? The ex says she is not sure (?) so JY asks MC to come in and sing the song.
MC hops in and sings a line, but JY tells her to stop and takes a break. he walks out. The ex tells her that the director is upset at her so she should prepare the same thing that he told her. SH tells MC that she is not a vending machine, how can he just press start and have her sing right away.
Outside, JY talks to the ex about her condition. She says her throat isn't that great recently, but seh can practice. he thinks she should rest (?). they talk about being ambitious, getting rest, and going to the US about being on Broadway. JY says he accepted the poposal for his own reasons. She says she came back for DH. He tells her that as a friend he worried about her, but bring me your doctors diagnosis as a director.
They both leave seperately. The ex walks out and runs into PWJ and DH walking the hall. The ex knows PWJ and smiels when she sees him, he smiles back and then excuses himself. She tells DH that PWJ is the same. DH just looks at the ex and at her wrist. She asks him if he has time.
Cut to MC seeing DH and the ex walking away together.
They go to a cafe. The ex says that she came to korea because she wanted to see him. She wanted to work with JY, but she also wanted to see DH. But DH does not want to know why she is here, he wants to know why she dissapeared like that. She is hesitant to say on the spot and asks him if he would like to take a walk.
MC looks around for DH later. PWJ tells her that DH told him to tell her that she can go home when seh is done with work.
DH walks outside with the ex and has a flashback of happier times in that exact spot. The ex pulls him out of his flashback when she gives him a tea. then she talks about how she was so poor back then. The power that kept her there was the greediness to be successful, but his appa crushed her with unimaginable force. She was scared, she was too young, they both were. Those are all her answers. Now she wants to ask him questions. Didn't you miss me?
Rewind to when he liked her. Then fastforward only the ex's time to the present. So the past DH looks at the present Ex.
MC is at home when she gets a knock on her door. DH asks her if she is sleeping. She is not, but she turns off her lights as if she is. he thinks about knocking on her door again, but stops.
Meanwhile, The ex looks at the script while in her hotel suite. She thinks back to when she was fired. If they did not kick her out back then, then the money poeple would stop giving them money. The director tells this to her. He asks her if she is dating someone? That person is crushing the owner of this theater. His advice is to meet someone in her same class level, otherwise she will not survive.
She thinks that it took her 5 years to get back, she did nto think it would take this much time.
PSB and DH drink together and talk about the ex. PSB asks him if he has a change in his heart. DH says it isn't like that, but he also doens't really know. The moment he saw her, his heart dropped momentarily. The last 5 years….you know how long I thought about that. But after talking to her at lunch, I was okay, I felt calm, like a storm, I was so quiet. PSB tells him, if it was a problem that he can solve right away then he would not have suffered for a long time. Did you tell MC? DH explains that he didnt' yet.
His friend thinks this is a good chance for DH to meet the ex again. he should clear up everything with her, all the thoughts in his head can be talked out.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
MC walks through the house and sees DS walking around without his shirt on, she sees his clock on his back. He only has 29 days left to live. he apologizes and asks if she is surprised to see him with his shirt off. She asks him if he is sick. he asks her if she also thinks that he will not live long.
He playfully tells her that she is a strange person and he will go to the hospital to check things out. He walks up to his room.
At the hospital, DS finds out that he has lung fibrosis. They don't know how it progresses. DS says that less than a year passed since he told him to get treatment. The doctor tell him that he needs to be hospitalized. DS leaves looking stunned.
Outside, he walks slowly down the street. One of his legs looks like it is bothering him. he looks around in a daze and then calls someone. he calls hyung and tells him that they should eat together. DH has a lunch appointment, but asks him where he is. DS just wants to talk to him and eat with him. But DH says his lunch appointment will be boring for him. DS does not push the issue and tells him to work hard.
Then DS rides somewhere as he stresses over his diagnosis alone.
SH talks to MC about DH. MC needs to tell DH that his brother will die soon and he should know about it. But SH is against it, how can she tell DH that his brother will die soon? Are you sure you should do that? MC gets a call from DS.
She meets with him. DS wants to know how she knew, she told him to go to the hospital and it looked like she knew something. he tells her that he thought he had a few more years but his symptoms are progressing quickly now. He asks her to keep it from DH, he will find a good time to tell him himself. He smiles and walks off.
Flashback. SH and MC are eating ice cream on the street. But then someone bumps into her so she drops her ice cream. Her time pops upon her wrist. This is the first time she started seeing it. It was 1 year 29 days. She tries to wash it off, but it won't wash off. She tries her darnedest and rubs her skin raw while crying in the bathroom. She takes a breather to cry and then tries to frantically start wiping it off again.
MC hops out of her flashback as she watches DS walk away. She thinks that she knows how difficult it is and tells DS to be strong.
MC and DH run into each other and talk about how long he should be punished. She does not make eye contact with him and dissapears whenever she sees him, she is running away from him. He wants her to tell him.
She asks him the same, don't you have something to tell me?
he tells her that he will not do anything shameful in front of her, so don't worry. When he clears up everything, he will tell her.
She tells him to drive well and take care of his hyung.
He says that he will see her tonight.
DH gets to his home for lunch and sits with his older and younger brother, sister-in-law, and appa. DS is at this family meeting again in what seems like a long time. Appa does not look happy to see him even though he greats his appa pleasantly.
They all sit to eat. DS is polite to his sister-in-law and tells her to sit, she has ajumma to take care of all the food. Everything seems fine, but then DS asks for some seed money to start a business like he has done for his brothers. Appa tells him to not waste his time and leave if he continues talking like this. he storms out.
MC goes to hang out with SN at the hospital. They sit outside and eat oreos on the bench. SN thinks MC is there to clear her head, she looks so depressed today. Is it work, money? What is the problem? MC says her friend is very sick. He is scared and is having a difficult time. It seems like he will jsut endure it by himself, he does not have much time, She wants to tell the family members, but he does not want her to telll them. SN says that she should tell them. the family should know and should prepare. MC does not know what to do. SN tells her that time passes, the seasons change, they have to just accept things, happiness and pain, that is how humans live. You should just be next to that person so that they can continue living their life.
MC agrees, she can't do anything, but maybe all she said is true. however, it is still hard to do it since she is not an adult. SN says it isnt' because she is young, it is just because she is a good person.
DH asks DS why he told that to appa, he knew that appa would be upset. DS says that he realized that they have a different sur name when they went to school. DH wants to know what is going on. DS says it is nothing, he just thought about all the things their appa didn't do for him at that time. Can you drop me off? I will have a drink with my friend and sleep in his place. I'll see you tomorrow.
DS gets out at the light and walks across the street with his tiny limp. DS watches him for as long as he can and then drives off.
MC waits outside for Dh and breaks the news to DH. She tells him that his brother is sick. She doesn't know the details, she just knows that he is super sick. There isn't much time left for him.
DH thinks it is nonsense, who said his brother is sick?
She tells him that she saw it.
DH asks, so you saw the time on my brother?
MC tells him that he has less than one month left.
DH grows upset and tells her that he can't listen to this anymore. He does not know what kind of disease this is, but how can his brother only live one month? Do you know what you are talking about? Don't lie to me. Do you think I am a fool that believes in your time stuff? One month? how dare you say that nonsense to me?
MC – I wish that I was talking nonsense and I wish that I was lying.
Will post later!

Lots of th8ngs are going wrong with this show, but I'm still interested in the time aspect.
MoneyHoney
@lalaboom seconded. This show is turning into a mess that I am somehow still interested in. Perhaps the last minute editing is to blame because a lot of scenes look like they were just cut right at the moment that they start talking in order to save time with cutting-splicing scenes together.
This show could be so delightful, I love the concept, don't really care for the male lead at all. He feels like he is just lurching around and then is fored to say a line or two (I mean this in the kindest way – this man just cannot act). I would much rather he over acted than underacted because right now he just looks like a wet blanket.

Top 10 Tech Stocks That Pay a Dividend
https://www.dividend.com/how-to-invest/10-big-tech-stocks-that-pay-a-dividend/
Tara Struyk
Long-term investors are often all too quick to dismiss opportunities in the technology sector for one simple reason: the way they see it, tech stocks are far too volatile for dividend investing. Although the dot-com bubble scared many away from the tech space (and rightfully so!), recent trends in this sector suggest that the industry has grown up from its start-up only roots and now includes many, big stable companies with a long history of solid earnings and dividends.
For companies that have matured past their high-growth phase, that history often leads to dividends, because these companies just don't need to reinvest as much money in the business. In recent years, that's exactly where a lot of big-name tech stocks have landed, and have begun to implement dividend policies in an effort to reward shareholders and—even more importantly—show just how confident they are about future earnings growth. Check out 10 of the biggest dividend-paying tech stocks out there.
Investors should keep in mind that dividends are not always a sure thing; find out more in 6 Signs of Unsustainable Dividend Yields.
1. International Business Machines (IBM )
This tech juggernaut has been leading the charge in personal computers since 1911, and now holds such a key presence on the global technology stage that it's become a household name. The company operates in a range of segments within the tech sector, including the manufacture and maintenance of computer systems, software, networking systems, storage devices and microelectronics. IBM's vast IT infrastructure network gives the company a deep reach into countless industries and businesses that use its technologies and business process services. The firm's dividend yield is far from juicy, but the company's sheer size and importance to businesses worldwide makes it a worthy consideration for long-term investors.
2. Qualcomm (QCOM )
This semiconductor giant designs, manufactures and markets digital, wireless telecommunications equipment and services. It is the inventor of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), a leading communications network standard in North America and parts of Asia. The company also owns a significant number of key patents in 3G mobile telecommunications standards, which helped propel the iPhone to such great success when it was introduced in 2007. Again, this dividend won't knock your socks off, but there's a lot of safety in the fact that Qualcomm is one of the largest communications equipment suppliers in the market. It's also been growing EPS for five years running, and has the highest ROE, ROA and ROI among its competitors.
3. Oracle (ORCL )
Oracle is a multinational IT corporation that delivers computer hardware and enterprise software products. It is especially well known for its database management systems; the company held 50 percent of market share in this growing area in 2011. The company also builds software and tools in other very key areas, including enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management and supply chain management software. Oracle's smallish dividend is a bonus, but this is a solid stock overall; according to 13F filings, it was one of the most popular tech stocks among hedge funds and other institutional investors.
4. Microsoft (MSFT )
Microsoft isn't just an 800-pound gorilla among tech stocks. As the world's largest software maker, it's the 800-pound gorilla. Microsoft has been a leader in operating system development and sales since it introduced MS-DOS in the 1980s, and is increasingly working to gain market share in the mobile computing sector with its introduction of Windows Phone 7 and Windows 8. What does all this amount to? The company has the revenue and stability to pay out a sweet 3.36% dividend yield. For more on the MSFT dividend, check out Everything You Need To Know About The Microsoft Dividend.
5. Intel (INTC )
Semiconductors are the heart of modern electronics, and Intel makes them. In fact, based on revenue, INTC is the world's largest and highest-valued maker of semiconductor chips. It is a leader in the manufacture of microprocessors; it also makes motherboard chipsets, flash memory, embedded processors and a number of other related devices. According to International Data Corporation, Intel holds the biggest market share in the worldwide microprocessor market and mobile PC microprocessor market. While Intel has overcome a number of legal hurdles and suffered through several potent challenges to its dominance, it's still considered an industry leader. And its dividend yield is far from shabby.
6. Cisco (CSCO )
Cisco Systems designs, produces and sells networking equipment, the myriad of devices and technologies that allow people to communicate electronically over a network. Cisco is a major player in networking hardware and software, and is also one of the top Voice over IP (VoIP) providers for enterprises. Some analysts will say the company is no longer the bellwether it once was, and that it's losing market share. The upside is that Cisco is still one of the richest companies in the world, holding more than $50 billion in cash and cash equivalents. And you can't argue with its dividend growth; since initiating a dividend payout in 2011, the company has already increased it. That payout looks pretty safe considering all that cash. And Cisco is still leagues ahead of its closest competitors.
7. Apple (AAPL )
iPad, iPod, iPhone … iDividend? Yup, Apple has been paying a relatively modest dividend with a 3% annual yield. Apple is clearly a leader in consumer electronics and personal computing devices. Although that has some analysts worried that the market for all things "i" is getting saturated, according to S&P Capital IQ consensus estimates, this sweet little stock is still projected to grow at a rate of 20 percent per year for the next five years. The company also has no debt and a cash balance of more than $145 billion. Check out a breakdown of what you could buy with Apple's cash reserves in What Can You Buy With Apple's Cash?.
8. Texas Instruments (TXN )
Texas Instruments is the third-largest manufacturer of semiconductors in the world and the second-largest supplier of chips for cellular handsets. The company is made up of two major divisions: semiconductors and educational technology, but it's the former that makes up 96% of TI's revenues. Texas Instruments has delivered dividends to its shareholders without fail since it first began making dividend payments in 1962.
9. Corning (GLW )
Corning is a manufacturer of glass, ceramics and related materials, most of which now goes toward display, environmental and telecommunications technology. The company is the leading manufacturer of the glass used in liquid crystal displays (LCD). In October 2012, Corning's board of directors declared a 20% increase in the company's quarterly common stock dividend. Although Corning's faced some choppy revenue and a decrease in net margins over the last few years, the strength of its dividend suggests that management's confidence in the company is growing.
10. Hewlett-Packard (HPQ )
Hewlett-Packard is a multinational I.T. corporation that creates software solutions and services for consumers, small and medium-sized businesses and large enterprises. As of 2011, it was the world's largest PC manufacturer in terms of market share, but the company also builds enterprise products, servers, storage devices, networking products, software and a wide range of imaging products.
If the company somehow pulls through the extremely rough period it's been having, its dividend could provide a real boost for shareholders. Now it's up to potential investors to make up their own minds about whether the current competitive PC market will allow that to happen.
Though it is less common, a number of tech stocks pay out dividends that investors may want to take a closer look at. As always, be sure to look under the hood of these companies to ensure you understand how they operate and what the stock will hinge on prior to investing.

B has his first speech and language assessment today. He will be joining an early language group. The group will focus on his vocabulary skills, develop his comprehension of language and improve his ability to follow adult led activities. It's quite far away and I'm not happy about driving so far for a half an hour group.
I manage to persuade them to change his appointments to a more local clinic.

Q: Affine equivariance and consistency Denote
$$\pmb x_i\sim\mbox{Ell}(\pmb 0,\pmb\varSigma)|i=1,\ldots,n$$
with $\pmb\varSigma$ symmetric positive definite
and $\mbox{Ell}(\pmb 0,\pmb\varSigma)$ denotes a $p$ variate elliptical distribution.
Denote $\pmb X_n=\{\pmb x_1,\ldots,\pmb x_n\}$ and $\pmb A(\pmb X_n)$ an estimator of scatter computed on $\pmb X_n$.
In page 217 of Robust Statistics: Theory and Methods the authors prove that affine equivariance of $\pmb A(\pmb X_n)\implies$  consistency of $\pmb A(\pmb X_n)$ for $\pmb\varSigma$ in the sense that:
$$\pmb A(\pmb X_\infty)=c\pmb\varSigma$$
Now, I wonder if this $\implies$ is not an $\iff$: naively suppose that I have an estimator $\pmb B(\pmb X_n)$ that is not affine equivariant so that
$\pmb B(\pmb C\pmb X_n)\neq \pmb C\pmb B(\pmb X_n)\pmb C'$, doesn't this imply that
 either $\pmb B(\pmb X_n)$ must be inconsistent for $\pmb\varSigma$ or that
$\pmb B(\pmb C\pmb X_n)$ is inconsistent for $\pmb C\pmb \varSigma\pmb C'$?

A: For a counterexample consider a one-dimensional sequence, $x_i\sim \mathcal N(0, \sigma^2)$, and let $S$ be the sample variance
$$S(x_1, \ldots, x_n) = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}x_i^2 - \left(\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n x_i\right)^2.$$
Set $B=S$ except let $B=0$ whenever $|x_1+x_2+\cdots+x_n| \lt 1$.  Although $S$ is equivariant, $B$ obviously is not, because rescaling the $x_i$ to be sufficiently small will turn an almost surely positive value of $S$ into a zero value.  Nevertheless, almost surely the limit of $B(x_1, \ldots, x_n)$ will equal $\sigma^2$ because the chance that $B=0$ is bounded above by $\frac{1}{n}\sqrt{2/\pi}\to 0$.

A: Let $B(X_n)$ be an affine equivariant estimator.  Let $A(X_n) = B(X_n) k(B(X_n))$ where $k$ is a scalar function such as trace.  Then $A$ is consistent but not affine equivariant.  This is called a weak covariance functional.

Target 2 Investigates: Arguments for deregulating occupational licenses
Posted: Fri 5:08 PM, Dec 07, 2018 |
Updated: Mon 9:34 AM, Dec 10, 2018
MADISON, Wis. (WBAY) - We've been flooded with your comments and responses to our Target 2 Investigation about occupational licensing for hundreds of jobs across Wisconsin.
We discovered the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) is conducting a study to determine whether occupational licenses are needed for everything from doctors and pharmacists to electricians and barbers.
The DSPS is offering an online survey through December 10th, gathering information on nearly 250 kinds of jobs, asking about the value of a license, barriers to obtaining one and cost.
It'll be included in a report presented to the governor and legislature, who will decide what to do next.
The DSPS sent us this statement Friday following up on our original report:
"The purpose of the occupational licensure study is to offer recommendations to the legislature based on the terms laid out in the survey. This does not mean that the DSPS will be recommending the legislature deregulate all professions currently under the jurisdiction of our department. Additionally, the DSPS cannot unilaterally decide to remove licensure for any occupation. Any changes to state law will need to be considered by the legislature and would go through due process, which includes public input."
We also spoke with more license holders who believe this review is needed.
'It's not an either/or. It's both/and, so licensing has a very important role and regulation is important," says Albert Walker.
But he also believes occupational licenses need to be re-evaluated.
The Green Bay barber says he nearly lost his business because of regulations and rules.
"People need to be properly trained for the safety of themselves and the public to deal with that, so there is an important place for it," says Walker. "How much of it is always really the key question."
The Badger Institute, a think tank that's done research and analysis on licensing and has worked with Albert Walker, calls requirements for certain licensing "irrational," telling Target 2 a cosmetologist needs about 1,550 hours of training to obtain a license and an EMT needs 180.
"It's gotten to the point where a lot of these licenses are actually fencing people out of certain occupations. They're stifling competition, and that's what we're concerned about," says Michael Jahr, Badger Institute vice president of outreach and special projects.
The Badger Institute (formerly known as the Wisconsin Policy Research Institute) says the number of licensed professions in Wisconsin has increased 84 percent in the last two decades.
In our original Target 2 report, many professionals, from health care to electricians, voiced concerns specific to public health and safety (see related story).
Jahr says the focus should instead be on possible barriers to licenses in other professions.
"You now need a license to be an auctioneer in Wisconsin, to be a juvenile martial arts instructor, to sell firewood," says Jahr. "Is there really a public safety component to a lot of these licenses, or are there alternatives that are maybe not quite so onerous?"
He says 14 other states -- Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Idaho, Kentucky, Maryland, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Utah and Vermont -- are currently looking at licensing reforms.
The DSPS recommendations must be submitted to the governor and legislature by December 31, 2018.

Hearing of former CSUN student accused of burglarly postponed
Laura Davis
The preliminary hearing for the former CSUN student accused of burglarizing more than 20 dorms between October 2010 and April 2011 has been extended again until Feb. 24.
Christian Hunter-Sheppard, 20, was scheduled for court Dec. 15, after being arrested in his home on July 20, 2011.
Christiana Villalobos, CSUN police spokeswoman, said he is charged with five counts of residential burglar and one count of possession of a loaded handgun.
According to a receptionist at the Lund Law Firm, Hunter-Sheppard is no longer being represented by Andrew Lund, his former lawyer on the case.
Hunter-Sheppard remains in custody at the Pitchess Detention Center East Facility in Castaic, Calif. with a total bail amount of $250,000.

Un fusil à platines est une arme de chasse à un coup par canon qui porte sur des plaques de métal amovibles et planes son propre mécanisme de percussion. À chaque canon correspond un mécanisme et un seul, totalement indépendant de l'autre. Pour des raisons pratiques, ces plaques, que l'on appelle corps de platine, sont placées sur les côtés de la bascule.

Désormais toutes les pièces nécessaires à la percussion sont positionnées sur un seul et même côté du corps de platine, ce qui n'était pas le cas autrefois avec les platines à la Miquelet, à la Chenapan ou à silex qui, il est vrai, possédaient un chien extérieur.

Le côté des platines comportant le mécanisme de percussion est enchâssé dans le bois de la crosse et dans les flancs de la bascule de façon quasi hermétique aux agressions climatiques. Les seules pièces mécaniques visibles sont les axes et vis de fixation de toutes les pièces constituant la platine, qui en parsèment de petites taches rondes de même diamètre la surface lisse. Une surface lisse lorsque l'arme est dite « en blanc », c'est-à-dire lorsqu'elle n'est ni trempée, ni bronzée, ni gravée. lorsque toutes les pièces sont fixées sur le corps de platine, l'ensemble prend alors le nom de platine.

Le principe
Le mécanisme de percussion étant logé sur une pièce de métal amovible (par deux vis, ou sans outil grâce à la clé de démontage intégrée inventée par Holland & Holland) il est possible à un armurier compétent de régler parfaitement le fonctionnement de chaque platine. C'est ce qui explique que le poids des départs (la douceur et la netteté de la pression devant être exercée sur la queue de détente) est en règle générale meilleur sur un fusil à platines que sur un fusil Anson & Deeley dont la mécanique est plus "rustique". Pour ce dernier les éléments de percussion se retrouvent logés à l'intérieur de la bascule et sont inaccessibles sans démontage complet de l'arme et dépose de la crosse.

Les platines comportent en général 8 ou 9 pièces : le ressort de chien, celui de la gâchette et celui de la gâchette de sécurité, les deux gâchettes, le chien, la bride qui unit tous ces éléments et qui est la seule pièce fixe de l'ensemble mécanique, le corps de platines et une pièce minuscule la chaînette qui réunit le chien à son ressort en démultipliant la force de ce dernier lors de la percussion.
Le fonctionnement est simple : le ressort de chien tire ou pousse le chien vers le percuteur (selon son positionnement) tandis que la gâchette, elle-même maintenue en place par la force de son ressort, bloque le chien en position armée. Une seconde gâchette dite de sécurité arrête le chien dans sa course si la gâchette principale venait à être libérée involontairement. Pour tirer, une simple pression sur la queue de détente efface les deux gâchettes et libère le chien qui va aussitôt frapper le percuteur.

De nombreuses platines

En règle générale les armuriers distinguent deux types de platines, les platines à ressort de chien placé à l'avant, qui équipent les fusils à canons juxtaposés et celles dont le ressort de chien est placé à l'arrière, des mécaniques que l'on retrouve sur les carabines double express et aussi sur les fusils à canons superposés. Si les platines à ressort arrière sont très semblables il existe une variété incroyable de mécaniques à ressort avant pour les juxtaposés. On doit ces systèmes à des armuriers comme Holland & Holland, Purdey, Scott (platine Boss), Baker (platine Churchill) et toutes reprennent ces neuf même pièces dans des combinaisons et positionnement différents.

Histoire

Les platines que nous connaissons aujourd'hui et qui équipent les fusils Holland & Holland, Purdey, Boss, Churchill, Westley-Richards, Granger, Piotti, Beretta, sont les descendantes des platines à silex qui possédaient peu ou prou le même nombre de pièces et un fonctionnement similaire. avant elles se sont succédé les platines à mèche, premières véritables armes à feu dotée d'un mécanisme, les platines à rouet puis de façon quasi concomitante les platines à la Miquelet et à la Chenapan.
Jusqu'en 1875 les fusils à platines étaient la norme, il n'existait pas d'autre système, quelques exceptions mises à part comme les fusils Pauly etc. En 1875, Anson et Deeley ont inventé un mécanisme simplifié aussitôt commercialisé par Westley-Richards. Plus simple à fabriquer, plus économique, meilleur très souvent que les mauvaises platines, la mécanique Anson & Deeley va peu à peu supplanter le fusil à platines chez la majorité des fabricants. Dès lors le fusil à platines va devenir l'exception, l'exceptionnel. Une arme de grand luxe, de prix et de grande beauté. La référence technique et esthétique pour de nombreux amateurs d'armes de chasse.

intelligent use of information and communication technologies.
The available space for new buildings in Vorarlberg, in particular in Bregenz is on the decrease.
This means that a greater tendency towards apartment buildings / multi-story buildings is to be forecasted.
There is space available for redensification, but this needs to be dealt with sensitively so that socially functioning municipal structures are developed and that there is no potential for social clashes.
Today, the flexibility of the plans in the utilisation phase is only possible in a very limited form, i.e. adaptations to individual utilisation requirements and requirements changing over a lifetime are hard to be implemented from a structural point of view.
Collective integrative solutions to enable self-determined lifestyles for the elderly will become more and more sought-after.
There are scientifically supported sociological, psychological and geomantic housing studies available, but these are still not taken into consideration enough in the planning stage.
Information and building technology is highly developed, but till now has been not been applied as an effective means of helpful support for housing.
One third of the material consumption total is generated by the building industry: protection of resources will become a heightened issue in our society.
Social issues for the design and realisation of apartment houses are gaining more and more importance: e.g. childcare, family network, health, education, mobility, environment, power supplies, work, life cycles and lifestyles of the residents.
To sum up, it is obvious that the constantly changing socio-psychological and demographic framework and necessities call for a new positioning of housing.
From our point of view, the bottleneck in housing exists in the fact that the knowledge available till now is being made use of unsystematically, and not in the fact that there is too little knowledge available on sustainable solutions. The housing issue has more and more to do with the integration of economical and ecological and above all social components as well as individual health aspects.
In our research project we want to develop a concept that includes a design for a sustainable apartment building development ready for implementation with a particularly distinctive quality of service. The concept should be optimised on the basis of life cycle costs and with the goal being that no additional costs are generated for the residents despite the higher quality of services.
The buildings serve the purpose of an apartment building or complex on a scale of approx. 60-80 units.
The ecological or energy conscious utilisation will be achieved by means by actively including the parties involved and the transparency of the information and communication system. The residents should therefore be able to track their running costs on a transparent diagram.
Can we combine the advantages of a one-family house with the advantages of freehold apartments in a multi-story building?
Which measures can we take to ensure that our customers recognise their "real" housing requirements?
How can these needs then be put into practice in the form of a plan and how can the apartment be adapted to changing requirements throughout the course of time?
How can we make the most of the information and communication technology in the building so that the quality of living, working and life is enhanced?
Which measures and range of services on offer can be used to support self-determined lifestyles for the elderly and a positive intergenerational way of living together?
How can we further improve the efficiency of resources and the environment of our buildings with regard to thermal heat requirements and providing the building with regenerative energy resources, the use of renewable and environmentally-friendly resources for building materials and the conceptual design of components?
As an impetus for the networking of ideas based on the target catalogue, we held a design and planning "Future Workshop" for the experts.
"inkl. wohnen" places emphasis on human beings, their life cycles and the principle of sustainability as a real claim on high standards.
This means that the deliberate inclusion of the future owners in the design of their living space is a logical part of "inkl. wohnen". Modular architecture and flexible structural design for multi-story apartment buildings are prerequisites for the necessary design leeway.
Infrastructural questions such as "What do I really need? What do I need in the apartment? What do I get out of the neighbourhood?
The goal is to determine individual living requirements and planning for the future.
Flexible and modifiable - Modular plans, feasible alteration and adaptation possibilities at a later date.
In contrast to conventional construction methods in multi-story apartment buildings, "inkl. wohnen" provides constructive and organisational structures that render needs-oriented plans and interior design possible (for the first time): from ample openness to secluded rooms of retreat, from special technical fittings for the building to detailed layout designs.
A continuous and economically feasible concept is required to guarantee the flexibility of utilisation, such as workable alteration possibilities at a later date, or the dividing, opening or merging of apartments. The apartment thus accompanies the resident throughout his/her life cycle and adapts itself to the changing living requirements of the person.
"Space and human beings in matters of their mutual development possess physical, mental and intellectual qualities that interact to constitute the vitality of life. Correspondingly, human beings and space are fulfilled with consciousness and spiritual strength and are involved in constant interplay with each other on a mental and physical level. (...) in this spirit the art and science of geomancy are concerned with recognising and interpreting the interaction and the spiritual hold on the space, its aesthetic effect as well as being able to understand its interplay with us humans."
The development of the pilot project Sandgrubenweg Residential Park is based upon a geomantic analysis of the space of the location. Thus our starting point is serious and up to date scientific modern science research and we are herewith developing a new sensitivity for key influencing factors on the quality of living.
New social, technological and ecological developments ask for radical re-thinking in the architectural design of multi-story apartment buildings.
In the first project realisation of "inkl. wohnen" this interplay to form an ensemble should become noticeable and be seen as a fascinating new form of architecture. "Top quality" refers in particular to the different design alternatives and to the diverse usability of the building.
So the character of "inkl. wohnen" is stamped by open and flexible structures.
The Sandgrubenweg Residential Park attempts to transfer the individual quality of a one-family house to a multi-story level.
The special quality of design of parts of a structure lies in the fact that as a result of the maximum convertibility of the floor plan and the required formal and technical prerequisites, the whole appearance of the Sandgrubenweg Residential Park still looks aesthetic as well as technically strong and impressive.
The innovative overall concept includes competitively priced modular architecture that can be tailored to suit different phases of life and the most up-to-date communication and building services engineering. Life in an "inkl. wohnen" project should be comfortable and well organised. Individual privacy is however still a priority. Everything is based on voluntariness.
"Top Quality Architecture" has the challenge of juggling all "Solutions packages" creatively, technically and economically.
Challenging alternative concepts for conventional building and contemporary solutions are in the foreground of "inkl. wohnen". Materials and constructional elements are subject to strict assessment in their areas of building biology, building ecology and building physics. Up-to-date expertise on the use of renewable energy sources and energy-saving heating and air conditioning systems are introduced.
Being mobile in the 21st century - this is a colourful mix of different kinds of transport. Car, bike, bus, walking. Based on our mobility proposals, we can offer various personal mobility solutions that can be calculated at the request of each resident.

All of the tests except GlorpDatabasePlatformTest>>testTrimString2 should pass using the PostgreSQL ODBC driver. The GlorpDatabasePlatformTest>>testTrimString2 test fails due to the test creating a character greater than 255. Dolphin throws an error for these characters.
You will need to adjust the properties of the ODBC connection to get the tests to run. The two items that need to be changed are checking the "Unknowns as LongVarChar" and the Max LongVarChar length to be some large value (e.g., 100000).

The Orchard Project is one of the preeminent theatre laboratories in the United States, designed to fuel innovation in performance and support bold voices and big new ideas. Founded by Artistic Director Ari Edelson in 2008, the Orchard Project supports professional artists and helps them to develop their bold ideas. It has birthed shows that have been performed for more than 2,500,000 people in New York, London, and as far afield as Tokyo and Stockholm.
Run by working artists for other working artists, The Orchard Project supports people over projects, and uniquely puts its faith in its artists to create new works while at the retreat. It is this faith that attracts leaders in the industry interested in developing their latest work — whether it is brand new or in later stage.
Companies join the Orchard Project for overlapping residencies, during which they are provided with free rehearsal space, room and board, and support from fellow artists. Throughout the residencies, open rehearsals invite peers and industry members from around the country to play an active role in the development of new works.
The Orchard Project has supported companies big and small, established and emerging. Each summer, it supports more than 100 artists, working on more than 30 separate projects. Past resident companies have included The Royal Court, the Public Theater, Tectonic Theatre Project, The Atlantic Theater Company, Pig Iron, The Rude Mechs, American Repertory Theater, Paines Plough, The TEAM, Mabou Mines, and more.
Shows developed at the Orchard Project have later been produced at stages including the Royal Court in London, The Public Theater in New York City, the Humana Festival of New American Plays in Louisville, American Repertory Theater at Harvard, Yale Repertory Theatre, The Atlantic Theater Company in New York City, Center Theater Group in Los Angeles, Playwrights Horizons in New York City, The National Theatre in London, Theatre Di Roma in Rome, Philadelphia Live Arts, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and many other theaters across America and Europe.
Orchard Project-born shows include TONY®-winning 33 Variations on Broadway; The Royal Court's Posh (also on the West End); Obie-winning The Aliens, The Shipment, and Architecting; and Robert Schenkkan's TONY®, Steinberg, and Kennedy-winning Broadway hit All the Way.
The Orchard Project prioritizes bold thinking, innovation, risk taking, creativity, community, and open mindedness — and it seeks to work with people who share those priorities. This applies to our resident artists and to our students.
The 2019 Orchard Project will include participants in four programs. Please note the different dates and focus areas of each program, as it will help determine which might be most appropriate for you and your work.


Publications Special Supplements The Southern African Treasurer: Treasury Trends - Challenges and Opportunities > Risk Appetite Frameworks for Corporates - Do You Know What Is on Your Plate?
Risk Appetite Frameworks for Corporates - Do You Know What Is on Your Plate? Lex Kriel, Associate Director, Monique de Waal, Senior Manager and Gerber Schnetler, Manager, Deloitte In the current volatile environment, corporates need a strong risk framework with an emphasis on risk appetite - and this article provides guidance on how such a framework can be established.
Do You Know What Is on Your Plate?
Brexit. A looming sovereign credit downgrade. Nene-gate. Weak commodity prices. These are only a few examples of recent events that have rocked the local market to such an extent that risk management has to be a key priority for corporates. With continued uncertainty in key markets such as the USA, EU and China showing no signs of abating, the days of dressing up sporadic hedges as a risk management approach are over. Volatility is here to stay.
Are risk appetite frameworks really relevant to corporates?
In this environment, as in any other, the board and senior management are expected to manage their companies in the best interest of all stakeholders by maximising shareholder value and honouring commitments. This is a tough assignment at the best of times but even more demanding during the volatile environment of today. A strong risk framework will assist the board and management to weather the storms that could otherwise sink the company.
In their risk management frameworks, most corporates tend to focus on operational risk, as it relates closely to their primary business operations. More often than not, financial risks arising from exposure to foreign exchange rates, interest rates or commodity prices are either tolerated or mitigated on an ad hoc basis. However, the prevailing volatility of local and global markets and the impact on the financial results, as well as the budgeting and forecasting process, can no longer be brushed aside as a temporary state of affairs, exogenous to the core business. The board and senior management need to have a clear view on how much risk the business is exposed to and, importantly, how much risk it is willing to accept, or in other words, have appetite for.
Businesses are built by taking on risk in one form or another - the old adage "no risk, no reward" rings true for all companies. The key to creating a sustainable and successful business is to fully understand the set of risks to which the business is exposed (i.e. defining the risk profile) and to decide what the maximum level of risk is that the business is willing or able to accept in pursuit of its objectives (i.e. defining a risk appetite). By understanding and managing risk, the board can capitalise on opportunities, avoid pitfalls and create a competitive advantage during difficult market conditions. As noted by the esteemed risk management author James Lam, "the only alternative to risk management is crisis management – and crisis management is much more expensive, time consuming and embarrassing".
For most corporates, 'risk appetite' is a somewhat foreign concept. On the other hand, banks and insurers have been developing risk appetite frameworks extensively over the last decade (although the maturity and embeddedness can be debated). These developments have been accelerated by the 2007/8 financial crisis and subsequent increased regulatory focus on early detection and pro-active recognition and mitigation of risk. Corporates, however, are largely left to their own devices when it comes to risk management, which all too often results in most companies having inadequate risk management functions. These are typically exposed only after adverse financial impacts have already realised (i.e. crisis management). As Warren Buffet famously said, "only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked".
This article gives insight into the establishment of a risk framework in corporates with emphasis on risk appetite. To enable boards and executives to make decisions that will benefit stakeholders, they need to have an understanding of what the risk implications of those decisions are. At the same time, executives need to have risk parameters within which they should manage the organisation to ensure the longer-term strategic objectives are met. These parameters are set by the board in terms of the risk appetite.

(en) ait russia: Lebanon rebels against austerity [machine translation]
Date Mon, 28 Oct 2019 08:23:14 +0200
Lebanon became another country where the working masses and the poor rebelled against the arrogance of the rich and the incessant neoliberal attack on the living conditions of ordinary people. This time, overflowing the chalice of patience, this time was the decision of the government to introduce a mandatory daily fee for using voice calls in instant messengers, in particular, WhatsApp. But the explosion was brewing for a long time. ---- In an attempt to get away from economic problems, those in power habitually decided to shift the burdens onto the shoulders of the working people and introduce a number of new taxes. ---- Lebanon has one of the largest public debt in the world. The government wanted to introduce new taxes to reduce the budget deficit in order to unlock $ 11 billion of economic assistance promised by international donors. According to the Ministry of Finance, Lebanon's national debt is about $ 86 billion, which is more than 150% of GDP. In September, Prime Minister Hariri introduced a "state of emergency in the national economy" and announced the cabinet's intention to reduce the state budget deficit by fiscal year 2020 by almost 7%. The Hariri government took unpopular measures to reduce social payments and pension benefits to public sector employees and military personnel with the expectation of receiving large financial assistance and avoiding default ( https://www.bbc.com/russian/news-50108679 )
From the 10th of October, riots began to erupt in the country, and the WhatsApp tax was the last straw.
The population found out that there will be a fee for using any VoIP services in popular instant messengers. According to the plan, for every day of using voice calls on WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, as well as for FaceTime calls, Lebanese residents will have to pay 20 cents (about 13 rubles). After the news spread through local communication channels, the unrest and protests in the evening of October 17 began to develop into mass riots (https://www.popmech.ru/technologies/news-515382-nalog-na-golos-v-whatsapp-vyzval-massovye-besporyadki/)
On October 17, thousands of Lebanese spontaneously took to the streets, demanding the departure of predatory power. Protesters built barricades of burning tires and stopped traffic. The performances were the largest in scale for many years. In clashes with police using tear gas, dozens of people were injured. "The people are demanding the fall of the regime," chanted protesters gathered in Riad al-Solkh's Beirut Square. "We are not here because of WhatsApp," one of the participants of Abdullah explained to correspondents, "we are here because of everything: fuel, food, bread, everything." Many also expressed outrage at the authorities' inaction in the fight against forest fires - the largest in the country in decades.
After a few hours, the authorities abolished the WhatsApp tax, but this did not satisfy the protesters (https://www.popmech.ru/technologies/news-515382-nalog-na-golos-v-whatsapp-vyzval-massovye-besporyadki/)
On October 18, police in the center of Beirut used water cannons and tear gas to disperse the demonstrators. Hundreds of thousands of protesters blocked roads in the Lebanese capital, burned tires and garbage in the streets. They accuse the authorities of corruption and theft, saying they will not stop the protests until the government resigns.
Participant of the protest rally: "I need to undergo hemodialysis regularly. During the gasoline crisis, I begged at the gas station to give me a little to get to the hospital, but they refused. I am a sick woman. My son lives abroad. Treatment is expensive. The bills for drugs gasoline ... I can barely make ends meet. "
As a result of clashes between protesters and law enforcement officers, at least 200 people were injured at the government building, including 60 police officers ( https://ru.euronews.com/2019/10/18/lebanon-friday-update )
On October 19, protesters again took to the streets. They began to build barricades in the streets leading to the Martyrs Square in the center of the capital. At the same time, they used garbage containers, concrete blocks and materials from construction sites. The night before, when street battles became especially intense, and now attacks were taking place on shops, offices and construction sites. Demonstrators chanted slogans and sang songs in front of the residence of the Prime Minister. Having prepared for volleys of tear gas, many protesters put on masks and goggles for swimming.
Thousands of young people gathered in Riad al-Solha Square. They sang and chanted. Authorities closed universities until Saturday. Schools and banks also stopped working. South of Martyrs Square, an unfinished building was set on fire, and protesters did not allow firefighters to enter. Police were not allowed into areas under the control of the protesters, but ambulances could travel freely. After a few hours, the fire went out by itself.
With the onset of darkness, clashes began to boil again on Solkh Square. The protesters bravely resisted the gas. However, this time the security forces managed to take control of the city center by 23.00 (https://www.middleeasteye.net/gallery/pictures/Clashes-Lebanon-protesters-demand-leaders-quit).
On October 19, performances continued. In the middle of the day, people with state flags began to gather outside the government building in Beirut. Protesters demanded a complete review of Lebanon's political system. The center of Beirut was like a war zone. The streets were littered with broken glass, overturned trash cans and the remains of burnt tires. Banks and many restaurants and shops were closed. Protests that began spontaneously swept all regions of the country. In northern Lebanon, in Tripoli, the country's second largest city, protesters also gathered to launch fireworks and demand a change of power.
In Beirut, troops reopened blocked motorways after police used tear gas and water cannons to disperse the Friday crowd of protesters. According to police, 70 people were arrested and charged with theft and arson ( https://www.bbc.com/russian/news-50108679 )
On October 20, according to local media, one million seven hundred thousand people took part in anti-government demonstrations in Beirut and six other cities. The frightened prime minister announced a new anti-crisis plan, promising to increase taxes on incomes of banks and insurance companies and to cancel all previous decisions to reduce social payments and pensions to public sector employees. However, the demonstrators refused to accept these concessions. They continued to demand the departure of all authorities and called for a revolution ( https://ru.euronews.com/2019/10/21/lebanon-night-latest )
Here's what you could hear from the protesters:
"People can no longer tolerate this." There are no good schools left, no light, no water. Even the basic needs of the Lebanese are not satisfied, everyone came here with such requirements.
- Here you can feel powerful energy. I see that people from all regions take to the streets - this in itself exudes energy. I see Sunnis, Shiites, Christians and Druze - and it doesn't matter where someone came from, how or why - everyone joins forces (https://ru.euronews.com/2019/10/20/lebanon-historic-protests-government-concessions)
On October 21, a general strike was declared in the country. On this day, 2 million people participated in the demonstrations - a third of the country's population. The country was paralyzed - banks, state institutions, universities, schools and large shops were closed. Barricades began to be built right on the streets and mass clashes with the police took place. The military used rubber bullets to disperse the demonstrators in the center of Lebanon's capital Beirut. Police officers used tear gas and water cannons to disperse activists. As of October 22, a tent city with protesters remained in the center of Beirut. Activists also blocked the main motorways of the country (https://www.obozrevatel.com/abroad/vyishla-tret-stranyi-livan-nakryili-mnogomillionnyie-protestyi-foto-i-video.htm)
On October 21, the Prime Minister urged the parties of the government to support his "anti-crisis plan," making significant concessions to the protesters. The Lebanese government approved on Monday an anti-crisis program and a draft state budget for fiscal year 2020, refusing to introduce new taxes and cutting ministers by 50%. The authorities refused to introduce new taxes in the draft budget and will provide financial assistance to poor families. The Central Bank of Lebanon and commercial banks will allocate $ 3.5 billion to the government to implement urgent measures to stabilize the economy. The salary of ministers and members of parliament will be reduced by 50% in response to a wave of mass protests that swept the country. Revenues of banks and insurance companies will be increased by 25%. (Truth, the prime minister immediately promised the privatization of the telecommunications sector). In order to save state funds, the country's information ministry and a number of separate departments are being abolished. The cabinet decided to allocate $ 160 million to support housing loans for the population. The Lebanese prime minister also announced the authorities' intention to cancel all previous decisions to reduce social payments and pensions to public sector employees and military personnel, which caused discontent among citizens.
Addressing the participants in the mass demonstrations in Beirut, the prime minister said: "It's your protest actions that inspired the cabinet to make today's decisions." He said that if protesters insist on holding early parliamentary elections, he will support this demand. "We hear the voice of a people that requires a decent life," he emphasized (https://www.finanz.ru/novosti/aktsii/kabmin-livana-prinyal-antikrizisny-plan-bez-novykh-nalogov-i-sokrativ-zarplaty-ministram-1028615550)
But this did not satisfy the protesters. The whole system causes their anger, but, first of all, the banks and the political elite of the country. It was banks that benefited from the economic policy of recent years. Moreover, many of these banks belong to politicians and their relatives.
On October 22, a protest took place in front of the Central Bank in Beirut. "We don't want to pay for the debts that you transferred to us," the demonstrators chanted.
The main causes of anger are austerity policies and corrupt elite dominance. No wonder the French Internet magazine Mediapart links protests in Chile, Lebanon, Ecuador and other countries with a common headline: "The stormy sunset of the neoliberal empire."
Observers draw attention to the general features of recent protests in Lebanon, Iraq and Algeria. Their main driving force is youth. Unemployment among people under 25 reaches 37%, every year 30 thousand university graduates remain unemployed, the Lebanese newspaper An-Nahar reported in August, warning of imminent social upheavals.
The fact that the authorities have now decided to place part of the burden on banks demonstrates the pressure the government has faced. Among the promised reforms is the fact that banks will have to pay off debts from which they make a profit. The concession to the protesters was also the reduction of salaries to deputies and the dissolution of the Ministry of Information. This also includes the reduction of state subsidies to sectors affected by corruption, the adoption of a new law against the embezzlement of state money, the rejection of new taxes, the acceleration of the construction of new power plants, and a substantial increase in payments to old people and families. Privatization of telecommunications, although this is a neoliberal measure, but it is designed to reassure those who were outraged by the increase in fees for instant messengers ...
The effects of austerity policies in Lebanon are felt as never before. Firefighters lack funds. Power supply is becoming more and more expensive. Due to power outages, many families acquire their own generators, which are also expensive. The deplorable state of social services has been talked about for many years. Lebanon has recently been hit by a "garbage crisis" ...
The current protests are still distinguished by the fact that they crossed political and religious borders. They occur not only in Beirut, but also in other cities. Protests reject orientation to political parties. They are directed against the leaders of clans and billionaires. The roots of discontent go much deeper. People are outraged by the contempt for the general population on the part of the political elite, which draws its benchmarks from the dogmas of the World Economic Forum. They would like to "throw away the entire political elite." But they see, alas, no other way to do this, except by requiring a temporary "non-partisan" government ... (https://www.heise.de/tp/features/Libanon-Proteste-gegen-Banken-und-die-politische-Elite-4564703.html)
"Overthrow everything!" - read the banner held by a small group of demonstrators in Beirut against the night sky. Observers note the very creative nature of the protests that swept Lebanon from Tire in the south to Tripoli in the north and set out to conquer the ever-ruling country, which is enough for them. People not only demonstrate, they bring into the movement the notes of carnival. In Tripoli, the DJ brought his installation to the balcony and turned the demonstration into a disco party. In Beirut, wedding couples crowded into the ranks of the demonstration. When one of the motorists, whose car was stuck in the midst of the crowds, screamed that her child was scared, the crowd spontaneously sang a popular children's song for him. Protesters mockingly abuse the powers that be, remembering their mother and genitals ... They mock even the powerful Hezbollah - this state in the state.
The country has not known protests of this magnitude since 2005, when it was shocked by powerful demonstrations after the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri. But then the Sunnis, Druze and some Christians stood on one side, Shiites and other Christians on the other. Now the situation is different. Dissatisfaction is widespread.
" Today, the Lebanese are united as rarely, furious at the arrogance, the eternal falsehood of the rulers of all factions. The infrastructure was destroyed during the years. Ambulances donated from Europe, rot at customs, because that - illegally - also wants to bribes. In within a few weeks of forest burned and could not be extinguished, because the donated fire helicopters never came. Despite repeated denials, the central bank's holdings of foreign currency due to expire, after which the filling stations have already went on strike for one on the day, because importers can no longer pay for the gasoline. Bakery shops are close to closure because their importers have no dollars left for flour, "the German magazine Spiegel describes the position of a country that once had the best infrastructure in the entire Middle East.
"But now people are raising their voices. For the first time since 2015, when the collapse of the garbage collection plunged the whole country into smoke and the smell of decay. But there are much more people on the streets than then. And unlike 2015, when there are dangerous thugs from the Shiite party." Amal's Parliament Speaker Nabi Berry burst in and beat demonstrators, former militias lose their militants: hundreds of tough Amal guys appeared on their scooters in central Beirut this weekend, but this time to protect the protesters. They rattled and buzzed water guns and police on Distance and made it clear who owned their sympathy: the street. "
"The protests continue. Schools and universities are closed, public life freezes. All politicians these days express sympathy for those who wish them hell. Because nothing else occurs to them, but also because they can still assume that in the end, nothing will change. As in 2015: then they also demanded an end to corruption and demanded the resignation of politicians "(https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/proteste-im-libanon-stuerzt-alles-analyse-a-1292791.html).
In other words: a change in the faces of those in power does not change anything. The system itself is subject to change.
