The COVID vaccine mandates and the right to religious exemption required millions of us to question whether or not science could have pushed COVID vaccines to market at warp speed if not for abortions. Some of us found religious objections not only because babies died, but also because of how they died.
We research and discern this for fear of being fired or for fear of permanent harm by experimental vaccines. What would have driven us to research and discern this decades ago, before it all became new-normal? Could we have known years ago the likelihood that vaccines depended on cruel experimentation on babies? If so, why did we miss it?
The following is Part 3 of a story, key excerpts from my just-released novel, Virtual Eternity.
Part 1: Was She Outside and Alive When They Got Her Cells?
Part 2: Why Did They Need Her Living, Healthy Cells for Vaccines?
How Did They Prolong My Sister's Life Until Dissection, and Did She Feel Pain?
This next phase took three more hourly check-ins before we finally agreed we had discovered enough.
"My turn to go first," Maureen said. "What I've found out is even more unsettling. Here's another early 50s paper, from the Journal of Immunology. This one's about polio research too. It built on that paper you dug up about the non-macerated babies. It also talked about using tissue cells for virus reactions. They used babies' skin, muscles, intestines, and brains. They detailed how they removed the fetuses from the amniotic sac, placed them on a towel, and kept them at five degrees Celsius one-to-three hours after the hysterotomy, quote, 'until dissected,' unquote."
"Dissected? Plotkin said that too. Like we did to frogs in high school biology. And what is 'hysterotomy'?"
"A C-section. Yes, dissected. After one-to-three hours in the cold. Five degrees Celsius is about forty degrees: a fridge. Then he said it worked. They even grew virus in specimens they got from a fetus that'd been born for twenty-four hours."18
She sighed, and continued. "These babies spent their only hours outside the womb, sometimes an entire day, in a refrigerator. In other words, they kept the babies alive until they were cut open and killed. And no anesthesia. They mostly did that to transport them to a lab to extract the cells, like you said happened in Toronto. And remember, to get useful cells, the organs, the kidneys, whatever, must be functioning, in a living person. In this article from a couple years ago in the Linacre Quarterly, this professor here verified that the baby must be living to be useful. And he discussed what 'living' means. By 'living,' he meant breathing and growing."19
"I also found a review of a book in a medical ethics journal. The reviewer said the baby is, quote, 'as alive and aware a state as possible when being opened.'20 Unquote. Then I found that very book, The Foetus as Transplant Donor, written just a few years ago, in 1987. The author, who's against this type of experimentation, talked about the induced abortion technique and its effectiveness for getting live babies' tissue. He confirms what we've found out today: that fetuses still are, and will be, too valuable for vaccine production."
She paged through the book to a dog-ear. "Here, he also mentions how researchers try to keep the baby cold, even at four degrees Celsius, to make sure they stay alive longer."21
"Four degrees. You mean they put them in a fridge?"
"No. Four degrees inside their bodies. He referenced this paper from 1961 that explained why this worked for them." She shuffled papers and books around. "Here's that paper, from the Journal of Endocrinology. They studied twenty-three fetuses living outside the womb. They determined success by measuring brain waves at different temperatures and how long they survived. They found that babies would survive outside only about three hours at normal body temperature. But at refrigerator body temperature, they could survive longer. And girl babies survived even longer than boys. When they reduce the babies' body temperature to four degrees Celsius, which is about forty degrees Fahrenheit, for anywhere from a half-hour to six hours, then warm them back up, they can survive at that warmed-up state for a couple extra hours."22
"They set their body temperature to fridge temperature," I said. "I'm surprised they don't die from hypothermia."
"That 1987 book stated that these babies can withstand the cold differently than more mature infants."
"That relates to what I've been reading for the last hour. I started by asking: Will these babies feel such extreme pain? My biology student friend helped me with this one. He said that this very month, a week or so ago, a London newspaper reported how some UK doctors and researchers proved that babies have developed the physiological structures to feel pain by ten weeks after conception. I actually got someone from a London Parliamentary pro-life group to attach the summary paper to an email and send it to me."
"You got an email, here in the library?"
"Yep. At the computer terminal. It's titled 'Fetal Sentience.' I had just enough coins to print it out. The summary lines are right here at the beginning. By the tenth week after conception, all the functions and structures are there."23
"And your sister was about twenty weeks."
Do the Ends Justify the Means?
Maureen sighed again. "It's sadistic. Those poor babies are souls. My grandma used to say that babies who aren't baptized go to Limbo."
"Whatever that is, it must be better than their life on earth was."
"According to my grandma, it's heaven, but without the Beatific Vision. But she said that Church scholars have always disagreed on that. We simply need to pray for them."
"They need something," I said. "Nothing we've found denies that this all happens."
"Right. It's not 100% proof, but it's evidence."
"It seems like the tip of the iceberg. Why do so few people know about this? We've only had high school biology classes, but we can figure it out."
"Yeah, but I feel we had help." She pointed up.
We stared at the books and journals and photocopies strung out around our tables. We both sighed at the same time.
"Thanks for all this, Maureen. But I'm not sure what we'll do with this."
"Maybe I can ask Father Frank to preach about it. Or maybe he could ask the bishop or someone powerful in the Church to ask drug manufacturers to disclose how they produce each and every med."
"And how they test them. The biology student said that they're advancing to where they can use cells to test meds and vaccines. They prefer to use grown humans. But of course, that's risky and expensive. And apparently using other animals is less accurate. So they'd like to test vaccines' effects on cells pulled from babies' organs."
"So it will happen even more often. And by the way, I also stumbled on a place to order the cells. It was listed in some resource book for people studying aging. If you call their 800-number in New Jersey, you can buy the cell lines we've been reading about. Quote, 'Available are human fibroblasts from female (IMR-90) and male (IMR-91 and MRC-5) fetal lung tissues and WI-38 female diploid lung cells.'24 Unquote."
"How did we let this happen in the first place?"
"We all did, by ignoring it," Maureen said. "Because it upsets our fragile beliefs." She waved her arm over the tables. "This is all saying that so many of the medicines that heal so many actually come from death."
I shook my head. "It's difficult to grasp. It's like we hypnotized ourselves to believe that it never happened, or that it happened too long ago, or that the babies were not alive, or that they were miscarriages."
"Right. They couldn't possibly be dead, or miscarriages."
I looked down at my pad, and jotted down a few final notes.
"What are you writing?"
"I'd made some notes to summarize all this." I cleared my throat.
"Okay, here goes. Many medicines and vaccines are developed using cells that, using the introduction of mutations, subdivide from the original cells of live, premature babies. To get any at all, they experiment on dozens of ten-to-thirty-weeks-from-conception babies; who are unbaptized souls with names before God; who their mothers plan in advance to reject; who are not miscarriages; who doctors pull from their mothers' wombs alive and whole; who doctors place in a refrigerator or lower their body temperature to forty degrees, for one-to-twenty-four hours, so they stay alive for dissection; and who lab researchers cut into with a scalpel while they're alive, without anesthesia, so they can find their tiny, fully functioning organs and extract their living cells."25,26
"And it doesn't matter if this happened twenty-five years ago, or yesterday," Maureen said. "It happened. They were living babies. Time passing doesn't prevent something from being evil. Can you imagine knowingly getting a vaccine that was produced using the tissue of one of Mengele's concentration camp victims, or tested on the tissue of slaves from a plantation in the Deep South, or tested on cells from Aztec children whose hearts were ripped out?"
"No." I rubbed my head. "Whoa. Disturbing thought here: Are we like the Aztecs?"
Maureen stretched out to touch my arm. "Part of me wishes we didn't ask these questions."
"True. I didn't want to know that people can probably buy her cells."
"Oh. Sorry about that."
"It's okay. But I did want to know that my sister didn't die in vain, that she helped many people, and that I wasn't the only one benefitting from her dying. Maybe all that's true. But no one ever asked her to choose. They stole her cells from her. Then killed her. And the end does not justify the means. Even if one of those ends was... me. We all ignored the means."
"That's because all we initially see are the ends," she said. "We've all focused too much on seeing these ends: our health and comfort. They're the easiest to see, because they're the results – easy to believe in. But it's the easy, wide gates that lead us to error and sin, and even heresy and false religions."
"How could we have avoided it? Those results are an extremely good, easy gate for a lot of us."
"Yeah, I've based so many choices and mistakes on the wide gates my whole life," she said. "But that's the lesson. We need to look for help from above. The help is not only in bits of knowledge falling into our laps, from people explaining things, or in evidence from research papers."
"Or in God-given coincidences, like us getting together."
"That's so sweet. Anyway, the help is also in the Bible and a couple thousand years of saints' writings. Here's one more thing I found today. I forget which medical ethics journal I copied it from. The writer quoted a Catechism, the one after the Council of Trent in the 1500s. Quote: 'The infidel… places his principal hope of deliverance in the remedies provided by nature, or prepared by man. He makes no scruple of using medicine no matter by whom prepared, no matter if accompanied by charms, spells or other diabolical arts, provided he can promise himself some hope of recovery. Not so the Christian.… The Sacred Scriptures condemn the conduct of those who, confiding in the power of medicine, seek no assistance from God. Nay more, those who regulate their lives by the laws of God, abstain from the use of all medicines which are not evidently intended by God to be medicinal; and, were there even a certain hope of recovery by using any other, they abstain from them as so many charms and diabolical artifice.'27 Unquote."
"So all those theories I hold – about the true and authentic, the good and the beautiful – should also be grounded in what God's revealed."
"Yes," Maureen said. "And that's exactly what we forget in developing medicines."
"It's as if God reveals Truth out of an act of love for us."
"But it helps only if we choose to use it, especially for new challenges." She stared out the window. "And in hard times."
"I know what you're thinking. The next few months will challenge us in ways we can't even imagine."

Why measure smog at your desk?
Artur Gołdyn will tell you why measuring air quality is very important to your health and daily activities. He will also tell you how you can measure crucial parameters with the tools you can simply do by yourself.
With one simple device connected to your PC or Raspberry, you can display air quality measurements taken at your desk, on your computer screen, tablet, smart TV, or whatever device you want in your home or work network.
This raises awareness of all your friend and family members in a high-tech way, which gives you solid data about your closest environment.
Residential and business buildings hidden within smoggy air.
Air quality problems are commonplace in Poland, mainly in the heating season.
Smog may greatly limit visibility. It causes more frequent respiratory infections, even in very small quantities. It increases the problem of asthma, allergies, and even leads to the greater occurrence of malignant cancers and autoimmune diseases.
Most of the problem comes from coal-burning furnaces which are often very old and require people to manually load fuel. While inefficient, it's still quite cheap, because the furnaces are already there. Modern buildings are generally equipped with convenient and clean heating and are well-insulated. On the other hand, in older buildings heating systems are not that great, and people living there either cannot afford to change them or are not willing to do that.
Meanwhile, 48,000 people in Poland are estimated to die each year due to poor air quality. Sometimes the problem affects fit men, with no history of diseases and otherwise healthy lifestyles. And that's a huge issue, as 90% to 95% of all cancers can be avoided.
How to burn wood and coal with less smoke?
What makes matters worse, dust emissions are amplified by the wrong methods of burning solid fuels, such as coal and wood.
And it takes only a simple change of technique to make burning much cleaner!
Even with existing infrastructure less smoke can be emitted, and more heat obtained.
Most operators burn their fuels bottom-up, that is they place small pieces of wood in the furnace first, and then cover it with larger wood, or coals. That leads to inefficiencies, as the toxic and flammable gases (such as hydrocarbons) are generated above the hot flames, and they escape into the chimney, leading to soot buildup in the chimney, and high quantities of smoke outside.
First big pieces of wood are placed on the bottom of the fireplace, then they are covered with smaller ones, and at the top, some cardboard is placed. This generates a high temperature in the top section of the fireplace. The same principle can be applied to coals – if you place them on the bottom of the furnace, cover with smaller pieces of fuel, and set fire above that, resulting tars and gases are burned much more efficiently, provided that the oxygen is there.
Unfortunately, the change of burning technique is not a recipe to completely fix pollution. It may greatly reduce, but not totally eliminate smoke emitted from furnaces. Retort burners are even more efficient solution. They burn solid fuels, such as coals or wood pellets in very small pieces, automatically pushing small amounts of fuel every few minutes. The fuel is pushed from the bottom of the burner, and the air is added to the top with a mechanical ventilator. All gases from evaporation and pyrolysis get burned in the flame above, leaving almost no tar and very little smoke. Retort burner furnace with a big heat exchanger is typically more than 90% efficient. Modern retort furnaces also have a settling chamber between the stages of the heat exchanger, which causes bigger particles of dust to stay in the furnace, and not go to the chimney.
Retort burners still require operators to add new coal or pellets every few days.
In the long run, the cheapest source of residential heat is a heat pump, which uses relatively small amount of electricity to heat the house. A heat pump works like a freezer or air conditioning, just in reverse.
For a lower capital cost, simpler installation, but unfortunately more cost of fuel, people can also use gas burners. They are as clean and as convenient as heat pumps.
What is the worst part of air pollution?
The most important ingredient of air pollution is suspended dust, which really is just smoke. It comes from burning coal and wood in old furnaces, and from diesel engines.
Suspended dust contains not only soot (carbon particles) but also tar (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons – PAHs – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycyclic_aromatic_hydrocarbon) which are highly carcinogenic and mutagenic, as well as teratogenic. Terrible, isn't it?
PAHs are much more harmful than carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides or ozone, which have a more acute mode of toxicity (kill quickly in big concentrations).
Luckily the air can be filtered, to greatly reduce the smoke content. For personal protection, there is a variety of air purifiers for rooms, air filters for HVAC systems, and personal breathing masks available.
Me wearing a HEPA breathing mask.
Beurer LR-300 HEPA filter before using, and after 5 months of autumn and winter.
How to verify, that air purifiers are adequate?
We need to have a PC installed, with Nova SDS-011 sensor attached to the USB port.
And some software from my GitHub account.
Dust concentration is being measured by a sensor and sent to PC via virtual serial port (for example COM4 in Windows, or /dev/ttyUSB0 in the Linux operating system). Each second average recording of both PM10 and PM2.5 is being sent by a sensor, interpreted with a script, and persisted in a text file.
Sharing air quality data in the network.
Users' browsers are allowed to download data, with a Node.js API.
The Hapi.js framework is used, which allows serving multiple clients at once. Data is added to file all the time so that the results are kept fresh. To improve performance, a few seconds lag is allowed, using Hapi.js caching mechanisms.
Data is being shared via API, calculating average measurements for hourly, quarterly and minute periods of time. Angular is used as a frontend and connects to backend by proxy.
Frontend framework such as Angular allows connecting to Node.js API via Proxy server.
Example proxy.conf.js file, also allowing registration of user IP addresses by Node.
The application then displays results as a chart.
While dirty air might be rampant in your country, and you probably cannot change the level of consciousness, economic prosperity, or political approach of your fellow citizens, you can still protect yourself.
Buying air purifiers for your home and workplace, wearing a mask while running, cycling or commuting, and monitoring the air in your home or business is your best bet for improved health and well-being.
Don't wait for the winter, yet another year with dirty air is not a good thing.


There are many different tweezers sizes. Some measure 3.8 x 0.4 x 0.4 inches, while others are much longer. While size is an important consideration, so are the material used and the shape. The shape will either be round, slanted or pointed.
The pointed types are best suited for taking out splinters, ingrown hairs or hair stubble. This tip provides accurate control to remove the hair. Majority of these devices have a covering to protect the tip. Put the covering on when it is not in use so there is no risk of damage.
These are also available in different tweezers sizes. Their main advantage is increased flexibility in plucking hairs. These tools are frequently used for eyebrow grooming. The tip can be utilized for fine hairs.
The slanted section can be used for various applications too. The best slanted types are those with sharp edges. There are some companies that provide sharpening for the tool at no extra cost.
These are best suited for coarse plucking. These rounded tips of course, don't require sharpening. The drawback with these devices is their inaccuracy. For more precise plucking, the slanted and sharp tips are recommended.
Pick the size that is most comfortable to hold. The tool should feel comfortable in your hand. This will make it easier to maneuver. There are also types with longer handles. If you are having trouble with the typical pincer style, look for those with grips similar to scissors. Or you can pick one with wider grips for your thumb and fingers.
It's also a good idea to buy those made from stainless steel. This will make them easier to clean and maintain. Others have plastic or enamel coating. This should be all right provided the tips are constructed from stainless steel.
Optical tweezers employ light to handle microscopic objects. These are not your typical tweezers though; these are used for picking up atoms. The magnetic types on the other hand, are used for picking up DNA molecules. This is made possible by way of magnetic interactions.
The vacuum tweezers are used for grasping objects as small as 100 micrometers. But some variants can be used to hold larger objects like coins, stamps and various electronic objects.
When choosing tweezers sizes, always consider what you will be using the device for. This should help you decide what type to pick.

SimplySfdc.com: Salesforce: How to Send Email with Default Template?
Salesforce: How to Send Email with Default Template?
Send an Email is standard Salesforce functionality, if your Salesforce admin make the button visible in Activity History related list for that object page layout, user can just hit the button and enter email detail -- To, Additional To, CC, Subject, and Body. Email should related to a record. Optionally, user also able to select a Template, where within template, email Subject and Body can be determined using merge fields. This will increase user productivity when user always send email with the same format.
But, can we make user even more productive? When user hit Send an Email button, template will be auto select, and recipients also auto populated based on field in the record.
Yes, this is possible to use custom button and URL hack, meaning there is no support from Salesforce and it maybe break one day if Salesforce change in their back-end.
Scenario: to send email from Opportunity record, template is auto-populate, email Related To auto related to the opportunity, Additional To auto populate from an email field in Opportunity, CC will come from another field and hard-coded with another email address.
You can implement the same for other object: Case, Contact, custom object and etc.


Description: Double the enemies, twice the adventure and two headed monsters everywhere! In the sequel to the epic 'Fortress Guardian' you'll face off against werewolves, ogres, flying ghouls and more!

U.S. to Probe Fatal Indiana Crash Involving Tesla Model 3
by Tom Krisher .
Thursday Jan 9, 2020
(Source:Associated Press)
The U.S. government's road safety agency is sending a special team to Indiana to investigate a fatal crash involving a Tesla electric vehicle.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Wednesday that its team will check the crash scene and inspect the Model 3 vehicle involved in the Dec. 29 crash with a parked firetruck on Interstate 70 near Terre Haute.
The crash, which killed the driver's wife who was a passenger in the Tesla, is the second one to be investigated in the past two weeks by NHTSA. Also on Dec. 29, a Tesla Model S sedan left a freeway in Gardena, California, at a high speed, ran a red light and struck a Honda Civic, killing two people inside, police said. The agency dispatched its special crash investigation unit to the site on New Year's Eve.
Authorities have yet to determine in either case whether the Teslas were operating on Autopilot, a system designed to keep a car in its lane and a safe distance from other vehicles. Autopilot also can change lanes on its own.
Tesla has said repeatedly that its Autopilot system is designed only to assist drivers, who must still pay attention and be ready to intervene at all times. The company contends that Teslas with Autopilot are safer than vehicles without it, but cautions that the system does not prevent all crashes.
NHTSA's crash program has inspected 23 crashes involving vehicles that the agency believed were operating on some form of partially automated advanced driver assist system. Fourteen of these cases involved Tesla models. The team investigates more than 100 crashes per year.
The firetruck in the Indiana crash was in the freeway travel lanes with its lights flashing as crews handled a different problem.
Also, on Dec. 7, yet another Model 3 struck a police cruiser on a Connecticut highway, though no one was hurt. NHTSA also is investigating that crash.

The LSAT usually has about 100 questions.
According to the LSAC, "the LSAT is administered in two parts. The first part consists of five 35-minute sections of multiple-choice questions. Four of the five sections contribute to your score. These include one reading comprehension, one analytical reasoning, and two logical reasoning sections. The unscored section usually referred to as the variable section, is used to pretest new questions or evaluate new test forms. The placement of this section varies, and you won't know which section is unscored until you receive your score report."
The second part of the LSAT is a 35-minute, unscored writing sample. Law schools are looking at the reasoning, clarity, organization, language usage, and writing mechanics you display in your sample. Copies of your writing sample are sent to all schools to which you apply.

Your LSAT score is measured in three ways: your raw score, your scaled score and your percentile rank. Only your scaled score and percentile rank appear on your score report and the information sent to law schools.
Raw Score
The LSAT is composed of five multiple-choice sections, four of which are scored, plus an unscored writing sample. There are approximately 100 scored questions on the exam and the number you get right determines your raw score. Each question is worth one point and there's no penalty for guessing incorrectly.
Scaled Score
Your raw score is then converted to a scaled score that ranges between 120 and 180 in one-point increments. Each test varies somewhat in difficulty, so in order to provide a comparable measure of a student's skills, the raw scores undergo a procedure known as equating. This uses statistical data to correct for differences in difficulty, so an especially tough exam will be graded more loosely than an easier one. The end result is that raw scores tend to generate very similar scaled scores across every exam.
Your percentile rank is an indication of how well you've done compared to other LSAT test takers from recent years. Like the scaled scores, the percentile ranks can vary, but they're generally pretty consistent. It's calculated by comparing your score against everyone else who has taken the exam in the last three years. The number you receive indicates the percentage of students you've scored better than. So if you receive a 90th percentile rank, that means you've done better than 90 percent of the students who have taken the LSAT in the last three years.
On the LSAT scale of 120-180, a 150 is an average score. If you want to get into a top law school, you will need a score of 160 or higher. It's important to note that bigger schools also look at your percentile, in addition to your score. This means a small increase in your score can lead to a sizeable change in percentile.
Here is a table of common scores and percentiles:
LSAT Score
LSAT Percentile
180 Approximately 99++
175 Approximately 99+
135 Approximately 5+
You will receive your score by email approximately three to four weeks after taking your test.
The LSAT is a key part of your law school application that gives schools an estimation of your abilities in a measurable, comparable way. But it's not the only factor they consider. They also look at your undergraduate transcript and any applicable work experience you have. They do try to get to know you beyond your resume, which is why you typically are required to submit letters of recommendation and attend an in-person interview.
Every school weighs these factors differently, so it's difficult to say what kind of role the LSAT score will play in your application. Ideally, you want to score around or above the average for the program you're applying to. If you're not sure what that is, you can figure it out by doing a little research online. Use this number as your goal and take frequent practice tests to assess how close you are to reaching it.
A below-average score doesn't mean you'll get rejected, though. Likewise, a good score doesn't guarantee an acceptance. Law schools take the time to get to know prospective students on a deeper level to make sure they're good fits for the program. That means you need to take the other aspects of your application just as seriously. If you need some assistance, some test prep companies, like Kaplan, also offer admissions consulting to coach you through interviews, essays, resumes and more.
Unlike most standardized tests, the LSAT doesn't give you the option to submit your scores to schools on the day you take the exam. Once your official score report is released, you can submit it to any school that you choose through your online account. Just enter the name of the institution and hit send.
It takes four weeks to receive your results in the mail, but if you create an account on the Law School Admission Council website, you'll be able to see your scores approximately three weeks after the test date. You can submit your scores to schools at any point, and they're good for five years. If you've taken the exam multiple times, your report will show an average of all your scores (for up to 12 exams) and a breakdown of each of them.
If you don't feel you did well on the exam, you have the option to cancel your score. You can do so either on the day of the exam by indicating that you wish to do so on your test paper or through your online account within six days of the test. Canceling your score is rarely a smart move, though. It's difficult to gauge how well you did by your first impressions and if you do cancel it, future score reports will indicate that you did so. Plus, you'll be out the $118 exam fee. You're much better off waiting to see how you did and taking the test again if you didn't get the score you wanted.
We hope this guide helps to answer all questions you have regarding the LSAT!

Watched Robocop (1987) again after a long spell. Now it's just a sad, sad film and sharp satire. I don't react to the action the way I did when I was a kid. When I was a kid, my favorite scene was probably Robocop's assault on the drug dealers in the factory, or Robo taking out Mr. Jones in the final showdown. Now, I think unquestionably the best scene in the film is Robo driving home and exploring his old house and old life. The scene is given poignancy by Peter Weller's excellent movement and facial expressions as Robocop, and Basil Poledouris' fantastic cue for "Home." Basil excelled at delivering brute, despondent melodies.

Iraq president calls on Kurdish protesters to respect law
December 21, 2017 at 12:27 pm | Published in: Iraq, Middle East, News
Iraqi President Fouad Masum
Iraqi President Fuad Masum called on protesters in the northern Kurdistan region to exercise restraint, abide by the law and not to damage government and political party headquarters.
"A number of cities and districts north of the country have witnessed protests mostly by employees and workers who demand payment of their salaries and benefits which had been mostly delayed for several months," the president said in a televised speech.
"We call on all our people, especially the protesters to show calm, abide by the law and exercise restraint."
He has also called on the security authorities to promptly investigate the perpetrators of the attacks and hold them to account for their actions as well as to protect the protesters' security and ensure their right to fully express their demands.
Masum called on the federal government and the Kurdistan region's administration to immediately work to respond to the protesters' legitimate demands.
Iraq: Hundreds protest demanding reform in Kurdish region
"We also call to take serious and practical steps to resolve the problem of the delayed payment of salaries and address the difficulties suffered by citizens in different cities in the northern region."
International flights should resume to airports in the Kurdish region, he said. Flights had been banned after the province held an independence referendum which was opposed by Baghdad. In response, the central government in Baghdad announced a list of sanctions against the region, leading to it cancelling the results of the vote.
At least five people were killed and more than 90 wounded on Tuesday in clashes with Kurdish security forces, local officials said, and some were injured when the crowd was shot at with rubber bullets and sprayed with tear gas.
Protesters attacked several offices of the main political parties in Sulaymaniyah province on Monday and Tuesday.


Students go to college to be civilized, but little do they know that it's a jungle out there. While fending for yourself in college can be challenging, knowing which items to purchase or bring with you can be a lifesaver. In this post, we look at the top college must haves for 2019 that every student needs to survive. This list includes college must haves for class as well as college must haves for dorms. Here are the top 100 college must haves you will need in college.
Three towels. You won't always get to wash your towels, so having at least three ensures that you have replacements.
Two sets of bed linen. Nothing makes a comfortable bed more inviting than clean, fresh-smelling sheets.
Your favorite pillow. Your dorm may have pillows, but nothing beats having your own favorite pillow with you.
Two big ceramic bowls. Whether you're eating noodles, pasta, cereals, or stew, a ceramic bowl gives you the convenience and versatility that you need.
Two ceramic plates. Like ceramic bowls, ceramic plates are college must haves for a dorm because of their usefulness.
Two sets of utensils. Skip plastic utensils and opt for more durable stainless steel ones. Besides, Mother Earth will thank you for cutting down on waste.
Coffee. Essential for all those long study sessions and all-nighters.
A coffeemaker. Handy for making all those mugs of fresh coffee. Plus, you save a lot of money brewing your own coffee than buying from cafes every day.
Ceramic mug. Why settle for a cup when a large mug gives you all the caffeine boost your need?
Whole grain cereal and milk. Never worry about going to class without having breakfast again.
A study lamp. Comes in handy when you're studying at night, especially if you live with a roommate.
Mini desk organizer. Keep your desk clutter-free by organizing your desk tools and materials in one place.
Bookends. A pair of sturdy bookends is all you need to keep your textbooks accessible and organized.
A fan. For all those times when the air conditioner in your dorm is down.
Power strip. Apart from serving as an extension cord, a power strip can help protect your devices against short circuits and electrical surges.
Adapter. The fact that some of your devices' plugs may be incompatible with your dorm's electric sockets makes an adapter a true college must have for 2019.
Speakers. Because playing some good music is the best way to relax after a long day.
Rubber slippers. The common bathroom is a breeding ground for bacteria. Protect your feet by considering this as one of your first day of college must haves.
Bedroom slippers. Walking barefoot is not only unhygienic, it's also dangerous for your feet. A comfortable pair should make you feel right at home.
Toiletries. Don't forget to bring or purchase toiletries such as soap, toothpaste, and shampoo for your personal hygiene and grooming needs.
Hangers. Keep your clothes organized and wrinkle-free with hangers.
Bed risers. Your dorm room will probably be smaller than your room at home. Make more room for your stuff by raising your bed and using the space underneath.
Underbed storage bins. Now that you have space under your bed, organize your stuff using storage bins.
Mirror. Perfect for grooming yourself before leaving for class.
Eye mask. Sleep deprivation is one of your mortal enemies while in college. Make sure you can sleep anytime you need to with a mask that keeps light out.
Ear plugs. Dorms are notorious for round-the-clock ruckus. Never lose a night's sleep to noise by buying ear plugs.
Electric kettle. You won't always have access to a stove, so having an electric kettle is handy whenever you need hot water.
Mini fridge. Apart from cooling your favorite drinks, a fridge helps you save money by storing any leftover food.
Microwave. Attending classes and completing school requirements will keep you busy, so you won't really have time to cook. Whip up quick snacks by having a microwave in your room.
Microwavable glass containers. These containers are perfect for warming your meals. Plus, they double as bowls.
Hamper. Nothing screams messy more than having dirty clothes strewn around your room. Keep them in one place by using a hamper.
Laundry bag. Carry all your clothes to the laundry shop in one go with a laundry bag.
Foldable drying rack. As some clothes are not meant for the dryer, a foldable drying rack allows you to let these clothes dry without taking up too much space.
Sewing kit. Mend your own clothes by bringing a small sewing kit.
Tool kit. Learn to repair and improve your room by making use of a tool kit.
Trash can. Keep your place tidy and clean by having a trash can available.
Eco-friendly trash liners. Trash liners are the perfect way to make sure that the inside of your trash can remains clean. This will save you time as you won't have to clean the can every time you change the bag.
Air freshener. Dorm rooms can easily get stuffy and musty, so having an air freshener is a must.
Calendar. Never miss an appointment again by hanging a large calendar on your wall.
Flashlight. Because you'll never know when there will be a power outage, having a flashlight keeps you ready for an emergency.
Small safe. Stuff go missing in dorms all the time, so secure your valuables by having a small safe.
Two weeks' worth of underwear and socks. There will be weeks when you won't be able to do the laundry, so have enough underwear and socks in your wardrobe.
Jackets. Jackets are the best fashion items once the weather turns cold or rainy.
Mini vacuum cleaner. Cleaning a dorm room can be challenging, but having a small vacuum cleaner makes tidying up a lot easier.
Wall art. Liven up those bland dorm walls by hanging nice wall art that captures your taste.
Curtains. Apart from providing you with privacy, curtains help keep out some of the noise and light when you're resting.
Iron and ironing board. You're a college student now, so there will be times when you need to look sharp and professional. While you probably won't be using these that often, having an iron and ironing board can be a lifesaver if you need to look your best. Make it a point to have these as your first year college must haves.
Scientific calculator. A true study essential, a scientific calculator will help you get through all those math exams. In fact, a good calculator will probably last well beyond your freshman year, making it one of the best back to college must haves.
Spacious bag. Bring everything you need to class by having a stylish and spacious bag. Backpacks and messengers are just some of the cool college must haves.
School and office supplies. You'll be surprised with how easy it is to run out of pens, pencils, papers, and notebooks. So keep a steady supply by storing them in your room.
Laptop. In this age where everything is going online and digital, a reliable laptop is your best friend. Make sure that you grab this to complete your list of freshman year college must haves.
Planner. Keeping mental notes is not enough. Buy yourself a decent planner and use it to manage your schedule.
Noise-cancelling headphones. While you might not be able to control the level of noise in your environment, a nice pair of noise-cancelling headphones will help you concentrate on your studies even in public places.
Smartphone. For your communication, organization, research, and entertainment requirements. Need I say more?
Power bank. As you won't always have access to electric sockets when in campus, a power bank offers a ready source of power for your devices.
Umbrella. Protect yourself against the sun and rain by bringing an umbrella in your bag all the time.
Rubber boots. Never worry about getting your shoes wet during rainy days by wearing a pair of stylish rubber rain boots instead.
Comfortable walking shoes. A pair of comfortable shoes are a must if you're to walk across campus almost every day.
Kindle. In college you will need tons of books. Save on cost and space by getting the Kindle versions instead.
External hard drive. Keep all your files secure and organized by storing them in an external hard drive.
A set of smart clothes and shoes. Essential for looking sharp while delivering your reports and presentations.
Casual clothes. No matter your personal style, casual clothes are your best picks when preparing for a typical day at school.
Water bottle. Save a lot of money and cut down on your plastic waste by refilling a reusable water bottle instead of buying bottled water. This item's usefulness makes it one of the top first year of college must haves.
Trail mix and energy bars. Proper nutrition contributes to good academic performance. Make sure you always have healthy food by stocking up on trail mix and energy bars.
Hairdryer. Every woman knows that going out with wet hair can be the start of a bad hair day. Use a hairdryer to avoid getting your look ruined by bad hair.
Hair iron. Perfect for styling your hair whenever you want to.
A set of combs and brushes. These college must haves for girls will keep your hair healthy and gorgeous.
Little black dress. A stylish little black dress is a true staple when attending all those fancy school functions and college parties.
Electric shaver/clipper. No matter how you like your facial hair—completely shaven or trimmed, this electric gadget is your friend, which makes it one of the best college must haves for guys.
A crisp white shirt. No college must haves list is complete without including a crisp white button-down shirt that serves as your go to when you want to wear something simple but presentable.
First aid kit. The ability to treat minor cuts and bruises is an important life skill. Make sure that you can take care of yourself by having a first aid kit in your room.
Printed photos. Having photos on your phone is nice, but having photos of your friends and family posted on the walls of your room can help ease homesickness.
Highlighters. Use highlighters to mark and quickly locate important information in your readings.
Glass carafe. Stay well-hydrated by keeping a carafe of water in your fridge.
Sign pen. You'll be signing a lot of forms in college, and so it's nice to have that one sign pen that you're accustomed to using.
Sweater. A sweater should be one of your must have clothing items because of its versatility.
Duct tape. You'll be amazed with how useful duct tape can be when you're trying to fix things and improve your room.
Superglue. Similar to duct tape, superglue can also be your all-around solution for fixing things.
Air mattress. Sleepovers are part and parcel of college life. Make room for your friend by having an air mattress available when needed.
Wall hooks. Great for hanging bags, coats, and keys.
Bed table/lap desk. A bed table or lap desk is best for when you feel like working while in bed.
Shower caddy. A shower caddy keeps your toiletries organized, which is especially convenient if your dorm has common bathrooms.
Area rug. Dorms often have cold hard floors. Add softness and warmth to your room by putting a stylish area rug.
Weighing scale. A weighing scale is useful if you want to keep track of your health.
Running shoes. Because leading a healthy lifestyle should still be one of your priorities even if college life keeps you busy.
Workout clothes. Whether playing sports or just jogging around campus, workout clothes give you the comfort you need when engaged in physical activities.
Detergent pods. Because using detergent pods when doing the laundry is more convenient.
Lunchbox. Eating out every day can quickly drain your finances. Choose the wise option of preparing packed lunch whenever you can.
Neck pillow. Avoid straining your neck during long hours of studying.
Makeup organizer. Most women know how makeup stands can become chaotic. With a makeup organizer, women don't have to spend so much time sifting through mounds of makeup products looking for that one lipstick.
Water filter. While tap water is generally safe for drinking, a water filter adds that extra layer of protection. Like other items that last longer than a year, a water filter is one of the back to college must haves for 2019.
Scissors. A pair of scissors has so many uses that having one is simply a sensible idea.
Can, jar, and bottle opener. As you will be opening a lot of cans, jars, and bottles during your college years, make sure you have a multipurpose opener in your dorm.
Journal. While this is the age of social media and blogs, keeping a personal journal lets you reflect more intimately about your experiences in life.
Medicines. Although getting checked by a healthcare professional is your best option, it's still good to have medicine for minor concerns such as aspirin, antihistamine, cough drops, and pain relievers.
Bedside lamp. A bedside lamp is the best item for reading before sleeping.
Lint brush. The presence of lint can easily ruin your look. Roll a lint brush over your clothes so that you'll look sharper.
Alarm clock. While you're probably used to using your phone, nothing beats a traditional alarm clock in waking you up in the mornings.
Batteries. Having extra batteries is convenient, especially if you need them immediately.

Bobby Rydell, Teenage Idol With Enduring Appeal, Dies at 79
He had his first hit in 1959. Six decades later, teamed with his fellow singers Frankie Avalon and Fabian, he was still drawing crowds. –
Bobby Rydell, a Philadelphia-born singer who became a teenage idol in the late 1950s and, with his pleasant voice, stage presence and nice-guy demeanor, maintained a loyal following on tours even after both he and his original fans were well past retirement age, died on Tuesday in Abington, Pa. He was 79.–
The cause was complications of pneumonia, said Maria Novey, a spokeswoman. Mr. Rydell and two other affable performers who became stars in those years, Frankie Avalon and Fabian, grew up within about two blocks of one another in South Philadelphia.
Long after their days on the pop chart were past them, they enjoyed great success on the oldies circuit. The three had toured extensively together since 1985, billed as the Golden Boys.
Mr. Rydell did not just have staying power; he also made a comeback after years of alcohol abuse, which he chronicled in his autobiography, "Bobby Rydell: Teen Idol on the Rocks" (2016), written with the guitarist and producer Allan Slutsky.
Near death, he had a kidney and liver transplant in July 2012. By that October he was back, singing on a cruise ship with Mr. Avalon. But five months later, he underwent cardiac bypass surgery. Some of his later appearances were charity promotions for organ donation.
By 2014, his schedule was heavy again, including 11 concerts in Australia that February. He continued to perform for the rest of his life.
Mr. Rydell's recording prime encompassed the era roughly between 1959, when Elvis Presley was in the Army and Buddy Holly died in a plane crash, and 1964, when Beatlemania hit America. It didn't hurt that Dick Clark's "American Bandstand" was broadcast in those years from Philadelphia, the home of Mr. Rydell's label, Cameo Records.
Mr. Rydell's repertoire included plaintive love ballads; slow, danceable tunes; occasional frenetic rockers like "Wild One" and "Swingin' School"; and ageless songs like Domenico Modugno's 1958 hit "Volare," which became Mr. Rydell's signature song in his later touring years.
Mr. Rydell was a pop phenomenon but hardly a cutting-edge rock star. Still, he sold a lot more records than some of those who were. Over the course of his recording career he placed 19 singles in the Billboard Top 40 and 34 in the Hot 100.
His name alone could conjure up an entire era: The 1970s rock musical "Grease," in both its Broadway and movie versions, was set in 1959 at the fictional Rydell High School.
Mr. Rydell's 1963 song "Wildwood Days" paid homage to Wildwood, the New Jersey beach town where his grandmother had a boardinghouse and he spent his early summers; like Philadelphia, Wildwood later held an honorary street-naming for Mr. Rydell.
Unlike some of the other pretty faces of his era, Mr. Rydell was a real musician. His father, a fan of the big bands, would take him as a child to see Benny Goodman and Artie Shaw at the Earle Theater in Philadelphia. At age 6, he told his father he wanted to play the drums like Gene Krupa, and he was singing in local nightclubs a year or two later.
