Home News Huawei Has Low Expectations For Foldable Mate X 5G
Huawei Has Low Expectations For Foldable Mate X 5G
However, Huawei seems confident about its Mate X and it remains to be seen if the phone will suffer from the same problems as the battered Galaxy Fold.
Foldable Phone Media
Foldable Mate X 5G
Huawei recently denied rumors that it has delayed the launch of the Mate X and now supply chain insiders claim that the 5G variant of the Mate X will be listed before July.
This is in line with the roadmap shared by the company during an analyst conference, according to which the Mate X 5G will be launched in July. Before that, the company is expected to release the Mate 20 5G, and later on, in mid-October, a new 5G smartphone, presumably the Mate 30 5G, would be launched.
Samsung, which has apparently been working on its foldable phone since a decade, had to postpone the release of the Galaxy Fold after numerous reviewers said that the phone has screen issues.
The South Korean giant believes that the problem is linked to the exposed part of the hinge of the device and has recalled all the units given out to various media publications to thoroughly investigate the problem. A new release date will be announced in about a week's time.
The first generation of foldable phones were almost guaranteed to come with problems, but not many people were expecting the devices to fail outright. However, Huawei seems confident about its Mate X and it remains to be seen if the phone will suffer from the same problems as the battered Galaxy Fold.
Unlike the Galaxy Fold, the Mate X features an out folding design which is seemingly more durable and resilient. The infolding design was deemed unusable by Huawei and this could be attributed to the fact that such a design requires more of a curve and exerts more pressure on the screen.
With the launch just around the corner, Huawei is reportedly putting its Mate X through more rigorous tests, to ensure that it doesn't suffer the same fate as the Galaxy Fold. The latest report also says that the company will only be producing 100,000 units of the Mate X 5G. At an alleged price of $2,079, the Mate X 5G is far from affordable and not many people will be willing to burn so much cash on a device that can very well fail on them.
Prior to this, it was reported that Huawei's first batch of foldable would have nearly 80,000 units because of supply-side constraints. To recap, Huawei would be procuring its foldable displays from BOE. The company could limit the total production of the foldable handsets to 300,000 units.
The Mate X sports an 8-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 2480 x 2200 pixels. As mentioned before, it folds on the outside, so there is no need for an additional outer display.
The device will come with two batteries, with a combined capacity of 4500mAh battery. Thanks to 55-watt Huawei SuperCharge, it would take just 30 minutes to charge the device up to 85 percent. The Mate X also features a triple camera system which also doubles up as the selfie camera, guaranteeing best-in-class self-portraits. Huawei also says that the Mate X is the fastest foldable 5G phone and can offer download speeds of up to 4.6Gbps, which is twice the speed offered by competing devices.
If everything goes smoothly and the Mate X actually proves to be durable, not only would it add to the embarrassment of Samsung, it would also be a big feat for Huawei, as the Chinese company has been actively trying to dethrone its South Korean rival since quite some time. More

Q: Change the domains of SSL certificate - like Charles Proxy When generating an SSL paid or self signed you assign a set of specific domains (wildcard or not), known as canonical names. If you use this SSL to open domains which are not on the list Chrome gives warning - NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID - you know, click advanced  > Proceed Unsafe.
I use the same certificate on Charles Proxy which opens all urls fine on chrome, without warning. Viewing on dev options > security > view certificate, I can see that it's my certificate, my domain etc. However Charles changes the domains on the cert automatically for any website you visit, which pass all Chrome validations / warnings.
  -- >
How can I achieve this?
Preferably using Nginx or NodeJS via https.createServer(...)
Not worried about how to bypass chrome but how can a .cer be modified so instantly for each http request and be served to the browser.

A: Solved!
There are several options which include mitmproxy, sslsniff and my favorite SSLSPLIT
It is available for all distros, prepackaged, install via apt-get or yum install sslsplit and that's all.
You simply need to run 1 command, simply package your certificate with key and bundle into 1 pem file and run this:
Forward the port though NAT via iptables and then run sslsplit
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8888

sslsplit -p /path/anywhere.pid -c certbundle.pem -l connections.log ssl 0.0.0.0 8888 sni 443

It reissues new certificates on the fly with modified subject names as well as log all traffic if you wish. Bypasses all chrome validations and it is quite fast. It doesn't proxy through Nginx though as I was hoping.

Also found a node solution which is beyond what I need https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-forge

What Amazon is planning to do next
0 of Courtesy Amazon
List View Gallery View Full screen
What's next for Amazon?
From an online bookstore that was launched in a garage back in 1994 to the global e-commerce colossus we all know today, Amazon's journey to the top has been astronomical. Now the world's third-largest company by revenue, business boomed for the online retail giant during the COVID-19 pandemic. But what's next for the brainchild of Jeff Bezos?
As the company reveals its latest product updates, read on to discover the plans and projects Amazon is working on right now. All dollar amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise stated.

1. The iconic movie studio purchase
Amazon took ownership of legendary movie studio MGM in March 2022.
The $8.45 billion (£5.9bn) deal was finalised amid speculation that the Federal Trade Commission might challenge the takeover bid.
After all, the US government agency had been conducting an antitrust probe into Amazon for several years, with a focus on the cloud computing and retail arms of the business. It had also suggested a lawsuit be filed against Amazon due to privacy and data breaches.
However, the lawsuit recommendation was ultimately suspended, and the purchase of MGM went ahead.

With its roaring lion mascot, MGM is perhaps Hollywood's most iconic studio, and has produced classic films such as Singin' In The Rain and the James Bond franchise.
The acquisition means that subscribers to Amazon Prime have access to 4,000 films, as well as 17,000 TV episodes, helping to heat up the ongoing war between the streaming service providers.
It may also sweeten the sting of Amazon's membership price hikes; back in February, Amazon Prime raised its prices for the first time since 2018, and Europe saw further rises later in the year.

2. Partnership with Grubhub
On 6 July this year, Amazon announced a new partnership with American food delivery company Grubhub.
As part of the deal, US members of Amazon Prime will be able to sign up for Grubhub+, entitling them to unlimited free delivery on Grubhub orders as a perk of their subscription.

Amazon has dabbled in food delivery before, but without much success. Back in June 2019, it announced that it was shutting down the restaurant delivery system that it had been trialling in around 200 cities across America.
With the new Grubhub partnership – not to mention a rumoured acquisition on the cards – Amazon is clearly keen to step back into the space, a move that could reinvigorate the sector as it battles dwindling post-pandemic takeout orders.

3. E-cargo bike deliveries in London
Back in July, Amazon announced a new step in its journey towards net zero: the launch of a fleet of e-cargo bikes to replace some of its van deliveries in London.
The idea follows in the footsteps (and tyre tracks) of UPS, which had already tested four-wheeled eQuad bikes throughout the English capital.
Pictured is an Urb-E bike and trailer, which Amazon uses for deliveries in New York.

The move came in the wake of the expansion of London's ultra-low emissions zone (ULEZ), an initiative that aims to reduce pollution and congestion in the city.
The e-cargo bikes, which are stored at Amazon's "micromobility" hub in Hackney, London, are used alongside the company's 1,000 electric vans to carry out over five million deliveries across 10% of the ULEZ.

4. On-foot deliveries
And Amazon isn't stopping there. The company will also be introducing on-foot deliveries in London, a system already successfully used elsewhere around Europe.
John Boumphrey, the UK Country Manager at Amazon, explains: "Our new e-cargo bikes, walkers, and growing electric vehicle delivery fleet will help us make more zero emission customer deliveries than ever before across London and the UK in the coming months".

5. "Alexa, can you be my constant companion?"
When it comes to artificial intelligence (AI), one name has helped Amazon to dominate the field: Alexa.
Speaking about the cloud-based voice assistant in 2018, Priya Abani, director of Amazon Voice Services, summed up the company's ultimate ambition as "a world where Alexa is everywhere".
Amazon wants AI-powered Alexa to be a constant presence in its customers' lives, available to users 24/7 to help run their homes and provide companionship.

Despite its name, Alexa still lacks the human touch – but Amazon wants to improve on that. To make interactions feel more natural, it plans to remove the need to start requests with the wake word "Alexa", which is currently essential. Instead, the device will eventually be able to respond to queries such as "can you turn the lights on, Alexa?", as well as noises like a dog barking or a baby crying.
In November 2021, the company launched the Alexa Care Hub, which allows a vulnerable person's device to be paired with a family member's, making it easier for people to keep in touch with elderly or infirm relatives.
Initiatives such as this will generate data that could one day allow Alexa to help its users tackle health problems. However, it's also raised questions about how deeply we really want this kind of tech integrated into our lives…

6. Investing in India
After declaring that the 21st century will be "the Indian century", Bezos has certainly put his money where his mouth is.
In late 2020, just months before Bezos stepped down as CEO, Amazon pledged a whopping $1 billion (£800m) investment towards digitising small- and medium-sized businesses across India, enabling them to trade online.
Bezos also announced that Amazon would be exporting India-made goods worth $10 billion (£8bn) by 2025, with the company keen to secure a firm position in the country's retail market.

Not everyone in India has welcomed these measures, however, with some locals fearing that it could damage their bricks-and-mortar businesses.
But the ongoing investment could have one serious upside. In July, Amazon India announced the launch of Alexa Originals, a playlist of exclusive new songs by four independent Indian artists: Lisa Mishra, Vibha Saraf, Gulraj Singh, and Diesby.
Alexa users can now listen to the songs for free, and the move has reportedly driven a 37% increase in the average monthly plays of independent songs.

7. AI-powered home robots
In April 2018, Bloomberg revealed that Amazon is working on a project that could really shake things up: a next-generation smart robot for the home that will be powered by AI.
Codenamed "Vesta" after the Roman goddess of the home and family, the robot (not shown here) will reportedly be able to assist with household chores and generally make everyday life that little bit easier for its humans.
The domestic robot (not shown here) is being developed by Amazon's Lab126 hardware and research division, which is distinct from Amazon Robotics, the subsidiary that makes industrial fulfilment robots for the company's warehouses.
Lab126 has reportedly been working on the project for a number of years. According to the most recent reports, which were published in March last year, the robot's development is nearing the final stages, with prototypes being deployed to the homes of selected Lab126 staff for testing.
But while there have been no recent announcements about Vesta, the company has revealed updates to its $999 (£899) robot Astro. The latest software upgrade will enable it to detect pets in the home, taking short video clips of them to send to their owners when they're not at home. Astro will also be able to tell whether windows and doors have been left open, while working in conjunction with the company's Ring security cameras to determine whether emergency services need to be called.

8. Expanding into health and wellness
Amazon has been supplying hospitals for years, but it now has plans to take the medical side of its business to the next level.
In May 2022, Amazon Web Services (AWS) launched its latest AWS Healthcare Accelerator, a programme that will provide four weeks of training, support, and guidance to 10 US medical start-ups that are working to promote health equality.
AWS has also recently partnered with Chicago-based start-up incubator Matter to help international healthcare companies move to the US. But it's not solely focused on healthcare businesses; its latest wellness product updates included the Halo Rise, a sleep tracker that works using a combination of sensors and machine learning to work without having to be worn.

9. Fleets of delivery drones
Amazon isn't just taking over the roads when it comes to delivering our packages.
There's been a lot of hype surrounding the Amazon Prime Air drone delivery service since December 2013, when founder Jeff Bezos first mentioned the firm's plans to develop the concept during a US TV interview.
Three years later, the first Prime Air package was delivered at breakneck speed in a trial carried out in Cambridge, England, which has a Prime Air fulfilment hub nearby. The airborne delivery took place just 13 minutes after the order was placed.
The drone delivery service was due to get going at the end of 2019 in the UK, but this was then quietly postponed to summer 2020. In August 2021, it was announced that over 100 Amazon Prime Air employees had been made redundant.
While a fixed launch date still hasn't been announced, Amazon shared in June 2022 that customers in Lockeford, California will be the first to trial the new drone service "later this year".
The company has described the move as "another innovation milestone to the town's aviation history" and will give residents the chance to offer valuable feedback about the delivery system before Amazon rolls it out to other cities across the US.

10. Home security drone
And drones aren't just for outdoor use. In September 2020, Amazon announced a plethora of exciting new tech developments, including a home security drone that could patrol the house when it's empty.
The Ring Always Home Cam is a flying upgrade to the Indoor Cams already manufactured by Ring, which Amazon acquired back in 2018.
18 of Courtesy amazon.com
The levitating Ring Always Home Cam flies the route of your choosing around your property, allowing continual home surveillance that links straight to your smartphone.
According to the Amazon website, the product is currently available "exclusively by invitation", despite initial claims that it would be launched by the end of last year.

We have had a couple of weeks without getting on the bikes, so I was itching to get out and ride. Timing was perfect for a beautiful warm spring day as we were heading into Bismarck, ND so I looked on their city website for bike trail information. Also checked on my Rails-to-Trails and All Trails apps. The city website was super — complete with a pdf of color coded trails, mileage and a description.
Having never been to Bismarck, I looked at the map for a scenic trail that had an access point at a park or near a large parking area outside of downtown. (Driving even our small rig in a downtown is an unneeded stresser.) We went to Seratoma Park and were immediately wowed. It is next to the Missouri River, has a wonderful children's playground, and covered picnic areas.
The Missouri Valley Millennium Legacy Trail intersected at the Seratoma park and was paved and well maintained for the entire route. The route made you feel like you were not even close to a big city with the river on one side and a steep hillside on the other. It was off-road all the way with several markers for historic places, art sculptures, and benches for resting.
There were so many runners, walkers and other bikers out enjoying a beautiful afternoon. The high school must be near since we saw a track team running up the steep hill by the trail (you could also bike this trail but it was a little too ambitious for us). Fun to watch all the activity!

In addition to solid waste as defined in the Solid Wastes Management Rules, 2016, a lot of plastic wastes are also generated from households, industries and commercial activities.Most of these plastic wastes find their way to illegal recyclers or municipal dumps or open drains.
Plastic waste is regulated as per the provisions of the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 that were notified in March 2016.
Every local body is responsible for development and setting up of infrastructure for segregation, collection, storage, transportation, processing and disposal of the plastic waste either on its own or by engaging agencies or producers.
The WBPCB is responsible for enforcement of the provisions of these rules relating to registration, manufacture of plastic products and multilayered packaging, processing and disposal of plastic wastes.
The Secretary-in-charge of Urban Development of the State is the authority for enforcement of the provisions of these rules relating to waste management by waste generator, use of plastic carry bags, plastic sheets or like, covers made of plastic sheets and multilayered packaging.
The WBPCB is responsible for granting Registration to manufacturers of plastic raw materials, producers who use the plastic raw materials to make sheets, carry bags and multilayer packaging, producers or brand owners who use plastic sheets, films etc. for packaging their products and recyclers who recycle or process such wastes. The Board cannot renew registration of producer unless the producer possesses an action plan endorsed by the Secretary in charge of Urban Development of the State for setting of plastic waste management system.
Further, Producers, Importers and Brand Owners who introduce the products in the market are primarily responsible for collection of used multi-layered plastic sachet or pouches or packaging and therefore they need to establish a system for collecting back the plastic waste generated due to their products. This plan of collection is required to be submitted to the Board while applying for Consent to Establish or Operate.


El Cerrito's Hillside Natural Area is a rare open space gem amid our crowded East Bay communities. With 90 acres of oak forest and grasslands cut by hillside creeks, the natural area is much loved by hikers, mountain bikers, dog walkers, nature lovers, and bird watchers seeking sweeping views of the bay and refuge from the busy-ness of urban life.
But for all its beauty, the Hillside Natural Area is a place divided, split into northern and southern portions by roads and development.
Between the two portions, there is only one undeveloped piece of land where that division can be healed and the natural area made whole. For years, residents have used the parcel as informal open space linking the two natural areas, despite its being privately owned.
Now the City of El Cerrito has a plan to purchase the Madera Hillside property and unite the Hillside Natural Area forever.
Some public money is available, but private funds are also needed. Please donate to the El Cerrito Open Space Campaign and help us create an unbroken 90-acre natural open space in the El Cerrito hills.
A perennial bunch grass producing tufts of erect, unbranched stems up to 3.3 feet tall. The extensive root system can reach 20 feet deep into the soil, making the grass more tolerant of drought.
The open, nodding inflorescence is up to 60 centimeters long and has many branches bearing spikelets.
The plant produces copious seed, up to 227 pounds per acre in dense stands. The pointed fruit is purple-tinged when young and has an awn up to 10 centimeters long which is twisted and bent twice. The shape of the seed helps it self-bury.
Purple needlegrass (Nassella pulchra) was designated the official state grass of California in 2004. A widespread, native perennial bunchgrass that can live for 150 years, purple needlegrass ranges from the Oregon border into northern Baja California.
Tolerant of summer drought and heat once established, the seeds of purple needlegrass were one of several grass species used by California Native Americans as a food source. Today purple needlegrass is used for habitat restoration, erosion and levee control (and continues to provide forage for California's cattle and wildlife).
Poppies endemic to the East Bay Hills have a darker center, while introduced varieties are more mono-colored.
In favorable conditions the plant can develop into a small tree over 6 meters tall. More commonly it is a shrub between 1 and 2 meters tall. The branches may have a reddish tinge and the new twigs are often red in color. The alternately arranged evergreen leaves are dark green above and paler on the undersides. The leaves have thin blades in moist habitat, and smaller, thicker blades in dry areas. The small greenish flowers occur in clusters in the leaf axils. The fruit is a juicy drupe which may be green, red, or black. It is just under a centimeter long and contains two seeds that resemble coffee beans. This plant can live an estimated 100 to 200 years.
Jim McKissock shows off one of the largest coffeeberry plants in the El Cerrito hills.
Coyote brush is known as a secondary pioneer plant in communities such as coastal sage scrub and chaparral. It does not regenerate under a closed shrub canopy because seedling growth is poor in the shade. Coast live oak, California bay, Rhus integrifolia, and other shade producing species replace coastal sage scrub and other coyote bush-dominated areas, particularly when there hasn't been a wildfire or heavy grazing.
In California grasslands, it comes in late and invades and increases in the absence of fire or grazing. Coyote bush invasion of grasslands is important because it helps the establishment of other coastal sage species.
Baccharis pilularis is cultivated as an ornamental plant, and used frequently in drought tolerant, native plant, and wildlife gardens; and in natural landscaping and habitat restoration projects. The cultivar ground cover selections have various qualities of height and spread, leaf colors, and textures. The upright forms are useful for hedges and fence lines, and year round foliage.
Coyote brush is usually deer-resistant. The plants are also drought tolerant after maturity, requiring watering once a week until established, and then about once per month during the first summer. They can mature in one to two years. The plants prefer good drainage.
Only male plants of Baccharis pilularis are cultivated for landscaping use. If these are substituted for Baccharis pilularis subsp. consanguinea in ecological restoration, there will not be as much seed set, nor recruitment of new individuals.

Roj TV: The Victim of Turkey's Political Games
by Naila Bozo
On January 12th, 2005 the Turkish Embassy in Denmark filed a complaint against the Kurdish TV-channel Roj TV to the Danish Radio and Television Board for being a mouthpiece for the Kurdish rebel group, PKK.
The board rejected the embassy's complaint but this was not the end; it was just the beginning of Turkey's tenacious endeavors to close what they considered a mouthpiece for PKK. A timeline of the Roj TV case can be found here and background information on Roj TV can be read here.
The latest verdict in the case was announced on July 3rd. It was an appeal of the verdict from January 2012 and was, to the Kurdish community's surprise, a more severe sentence than the original one. Soon after the announcement of the verdict, the official court document was released. Owing to the fact that it consists of statements that I find harming to freedom of speech and people's trust in the justice system, I want to raise awareness about some of the aspects of the trial.
The Assessment of PKK
The indictment focused on three points:
1) Is PKK a terrorist organization?
2) Have the prosecuted companies promoted the activities of PKK through ROJ TV broadcasting in the period June 10th, 2006 to September 24th, 2010?
3) Have there been personal, financial, organizational and historical connections between the prosecuted companies' broadcasting and PKK?
The critical point is number one because if PKK is not labeled a "terrorist organization", the last two points mentioned above will not be as relevant. On page 92 in the court's summary of the Roj TV appeal trial, it can be read that
In order to be found guilty as charged, PKK (Partiya Karkerên Kurdistan, The Kurdistan Worker's Party) has to be a terror organization according to penal law.
The fact that Turkey, the European Union, the US and a number of other countries, list PKK as a terrorist organization is insufficient in court. It has to be independently assessed whether or not PKK is a terror organization because obviously political agendas have no influence on the decision-making in the system of justice, especially not in Denmark. Or do they?
The essential question is: Where did the court get its information about PKK? Because for the survival of Roj TV, for the sake of freedom of speech and press and for the credibility of the court, it is crucial that an independent and objective assessment on whether or not PKK is a terrorist organization is made.
It was an anonymous witness from CTA (Centre for Terror Analysis) which was established in PET (Danish Security and Intelligence Service who made the evaluation of PKK for the court.
The CTA produces analyses and assessments based on open and closed sources and finally compiles threat assessments.
The anonymous witness has been researching the PKK since 2006 and contributed with his/her knowledge about PKK in court. The court document mentions that the CTA did not co-operate with Turkish authorities when making statements nor was the CTA involved in the interrogation of people in Turkey conducted by the police.
The court document lists four specific sources used by the anonymous witness:
Global Terrorism Database is an organization that follows terror attacks around the world. It is used by, i.a., scientists. An American authority and a university run it. It is a recognized source.
The Global Terrorism Database (GTD) is funded by the National Institute of Justice, "the research, development and evaluation agency of the U.S. Department of Justice."
RAND Database of Worldwide Terrorism Incidents is an American think-tank that deals with security and terrorism. They collect information about attacks. They are highly esteemed and are used by, i.a., ministries. Among other things they compile reports. This is a highly esteemed and used source. They receive money from the American government and privates. They also sell services.
NCTC Worldwide Incidents Tracking System is an organization with several hundreds analysts and researchers. NCTC stands for National Counter Terrorism Center. They prepare threat assessments and analyses. This is an American version of CTA, which uses open sources. It is a highly esteemed database.
The NCTC, too, is a United States government organization.
Terrorismtracker.com is an organization in England that consists of independent security companies and offers consulting in security to states and privates. It is a highly esteemed and very used database.
It should be cause for concern that three out of the four mentioned sources are either a US government organization or funded by the US government. The foundation of the trial was supposed to be an objective assessment of PKK with information gathered from objective, independent sources; that failed. The US government is one of the states that have PKK on its terror list, a list that is based on political agendas. The US also has an interest in continuing to define PKK as a terror group: its relations with the ally Turkey, which is probably the worst violator of Kurdish rights.
So the court failed to provide a credible foundation for its designation of PKK as a terrorist organization. Did the document provide other information that made me question the "justice" part of "the system of justice"?
Since I was a kid, I have been taught to look at or at least try to look at all sides of a case before concluding anything about it. Apparently neither the anonymous witness from CTA nor the court found it necessary to look at both side in the war between PKK and Turkey as this was stated in the court document:
They [the CTA] look at, i.a., groups who fight governments. They do not look at the states' fights against terror groups.
PKK has been criticized by the UN and a number of human rights organizations, i.a., Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. The witness is aware of the fact that organizations have also criticized Turkey but CTA has in the statement only focused on the PKK.
And so they forgot Turkey.
Forgetting Turkey
I feel compelled to share a long but important paragraph about Turkey from the court document, as it is a good indication of the reluctance to recognize that it takes two to tango and that Turkey, a great ally of the West, is a phenomenal dancer.
It is thus evident from the preparatory work that terrorism is defined in correlation with the legitimate state that is built on democracy and the principle of a constitutional state.
Turkey is a democratic society that is built on the principle of a constitutional state. Turkey has a democratically elected legislative assembly and government. Furthermore, Turkey is a member of the European Council that is, i.a., built on democracy and the principle of a constitutional state.
The fact that Turkey in a couple of cases at the European Court of Human Rights has been convicted of violating the European Convention on Human Rights, including cases about the authorities handling of the Kurdish situation in Turkey, cannot lead to another result.
Furthermore, Turkey cannot be considered an occupying power in parts of the country's own territory, and PKK's fight cannot be considered a battle against an occupying power, and the fight cannot be considered a part of armed forces' activities during armed conflicts as defined in the humanitarian law of nations.
On this basis and considering the character and extent of PKK's actions, the High Court finds after an overall assessment that the armed struggle of PKK against the Turkish state to achieve the organization's aims is terrorism according to the penal law.
The fact that PKK after negotiations with the Turkish government has declared ceasefire on March 21st, 2013 and has begun a withdrawal of the organization's guerillas from Turkey to Northern Iraq on May 8th, 2013, can also not lead to a different result.
I will leave it to the reader to form an opinion on whether or not Turkey is a democratic country and whether or not it is an occupying power in Kurdistan.
If the court had taken the part of Turkey, the part of the state into consideration, the outcome would have been different. Perhaps the judges would have concluded "But oooh, according to many, many credible documents and witnesses and experts, whoever speaks up against the violation of human rights carried out by the Turkish state is accused of promoting division of the Turkish people, disrupting "national security" and posing a threat to the territorial integrity of Turkey. Maybe, just maybe Turkey plays a part in this war too?"
The flaw is flabbergasting: The court made a judgment based on a one-sided presentation that is in the favor of the Turkish state.
A political decision to close Roj TV
There is every reason to believe that this verdict and other efforts to close Roj TV are based on the political interests of Turkey, the US and Denmark; mostly because a Turkish Ambassador in Copenhagen said it himself in 2006:
"Guven said that the Turkish Ambassador in Copenhagen demarched the Danish MFA Under Secretary on March 30 to "take a political decision" to shut Roj TV, as the UK and France had done with Roj TV's predecessor media outlets." […]
Recognizing and appreciating past U.S. support with the Danish government, he asked that the United States make another urgent, parallel demarche to the Danish government in support of Turkey's request. Repeating that the atmosphere in Ankara was nervous and tense, he also said that making U.S. support for Turkey on this subject known to the Turkish press would be very important for Turkish public opinion.
Documents on WikiLeaks confirmed that an agreement about Roj TV was made in 2010 between a Turkish representative and Anders Fogh Rasmussen, former Prime Minister of Denmark, now Secretary General of NATO. Fogh wanted to resign as Prime Minister and take over the job as Secretary General but this could only happen if Turkey voted in favor of him. But because of Roj TV that had license to broadcast from Denmark, Turkey was not keen on helping Fogh. Naturally this changed when they made a deal about closing Roj TV.
Berlusconi, then PM of Italy, said that the final agreement included "closure or banishment from Denmark of a TV-station that Erdogan [Turkey's Prime Minister] believes is affiliated with PKK."
The following is an extract of a summary from the meeting between Turkey and the US Vice Secretary of State on February 18th, 2010, almost a year after Fogh was elected Secretary General of NATO:
"Tacan Ildem (Turkish ambassador in the US) added that, as part of the 2009 POTUS-brokered deal that had overcome Turkish objections to the appointment of Anders Fogh Rasmussen as NATO Secretary General, Denmark had promised to clarify its legal requirements prerequisite to acceding to Turkey's request for the closure of Roj TV, a PKK mouthpiece. This still needed to be done, Ildem said."
Another Wikileaks cable (seems to be dated October 9th, 2009 and classified as confidential) reads
Stressing that the Government cannot intervene in the independence of the prosecutorial function, Ahrenkiel [national security advisor] emphasized that it has impressed upon prosecutors the importance of the case.
He said the prosecutors are encouraged by the latest evidence Turkey has provided and hope to conclude their investigation this autumn. (He noted the possibility that the investigation could continue past autumn.) He acknowledged that a decision not to prosecute would create "a big crisis" between Turkey and Denmark.
There is a fear that Roj TV broadcasting from Denmark will create "a big crisis" between Turkey and Denmark and I suspect they are not talking about the crisis that involves the Danish system of justice being highly dominated by political influence.
Just remember, I did not first bring up the words "political decision" used about the closure of Roj TV – these were the exact words of the Turkish authorities themselves. So who can deny it?
The trial of Roj TV is not only about a Kurdish TV-channel. The trial shows that there is reason to fear that a government can and sometimes will influence the process of a trial, if it is in its interest. Just look at the last quote: "Stressing that the Government cannot intervene in the independence of the prosecutorial function, Ahrenkiel [national security advisor] emphasized that it has impressed upon prosecutors the importance of the case."
It's as if that quote was taken out of a typical American thriller.
Roj TV represents the Kurdish voice that remains threatened worldwide. The verdict was an undeserved victory for Turkey's ongoing attempts to silence all criticism against its injustices.
It has been proven once again that Turkey's magnitude of political bullying and foul agendas extend far beyond its own borders. It is only a shame that the Danish court fell prey.

African campaigners call for protection of rights of senior citizens
Source: Xinhua| 2019-11-25 22:26:29|Editor: xuxin
NAIROBI, Nov. 25 (Xinhua) -- African governments should enhance protection of rights and privileges of the elderly population amid reports of abuse and discrimination, campaigners said on Monday.
The campaigners said in a statement released in Nairobi that promoting human rights and dignity of senior citizens is key to realizing cohesion, inclusive development and peace in Africa.
Emem Omokaro, co-chair of Stakeholders Group on Ageing (SGA) said that Africa's aging population deserves protection from all forms of abuse and social exclusion in order to realize sustainable development in the continent.
"Ageing is poised to become a major issue in Africa and it is essential for countries to promote human rights for this demographic in order to realize inclusive growth and cohesion," said Omokaro.
She said that political goodwill and robust citizens' engagement is required to advance the rights of Africa's aging population that are grappling with poverty, terminal illnesses, abuse and neglect.
African policymakers, campaigners and experts will converge in the capital of Nigeria, Abuja this week to discuss the progress the continent has made in enacting legislation that promotes the rights and welfare of the elderly population.
Statistics from the UN indicate that Africa was in 2017 home to about 69 million older persons that accounted for 7.1 percent of the global total.
Roseline Kihumba, the international and regional policies coordinator at HelpAge International, said that promoting fundamental human rights of the aging population will enhance their contribution to peace, development and stability in Africa.
She urged African countries to ratify global and continental treaties that advance the rights of senior citizens amid their exclusion linked to policy gaps and the breakdown of traditional family structures.

L&G backs innovative UK wide venture investment platform with Woodford Investment Management and British Business Bank
Legal & General Capital (LGC), the principal investment arm of Legal & General Group, with Woodford Investment Management and the British Business Bank, has today invested in Accelerated Digital Ventures (ADV), a new and innovative venture platform funding digital businesses across all stages of the funding cycle, from entry to exit.
Legal & General sees an opportunity to help drive the institutionalisation of the venture asset class and create a leading venture investment ecosystem across the UK. It believes infrastructure investment in our great cities and towns, in combination with a thriving digital venture investment industry leveraging the preeminent science and technology emerging from our universities, can act as a catalyst to drive improved productivity and UK economic growth.
The institutionalisation of venture funding will also benefit Mission Led Businesses, which lack access to start-up funding. The government's sponsored review into Mission Led Business, Chaired by Nigel Wilson, Group CEO Legal & General, which is due to be published shortly, will propose measures to help support Mission Led Business funding and growth in the UK.
ADV plans to invest an initial £150 million in digital start-ups, through its platform offering access to capital, coaching, customers and corporates. Targeting existing digital technology hubs, including Belfast, Bristol, Cambridge, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Glasgow, London, Manchester, Newcastle, Oxford and Sheffield, it aims to provide equity capital to help 1000s of business start-ups to become globally successful UK scale-ups.
Paul Stanworth, Managing Director of Legal & General Capital (photo) said: "The UK has faced chronic underinvestment in physical and digital infrastructure for far too long. If we are to capture and catapult the best of British enterprise more akin to Silicon Valley, we need early-stage capital support. With ADV we are pooling together patient capital from three like-minded long-term investors as we back disruptive businesses and fuel innovation across all of the UK's regions, not just in London. Legal & General Capital is already regenerating towns and cities across the UK, backing clean energy projects, building much-needed homes and providing debt finance for UK SMEs. Now we are getting to the root of UK enterprise by supporting thousands of tech start-ups and growth businesses, creating jobs and boosting the economy."
ADV will inject patient capital at the very early stage of a business's life, through accelerator hubs and incubators around the UK and through microfunds. It will also back growth and later stage businesses as they mature, offering both funding and expertise from industry experts and proven entrepreneurs. ADV's long-term aim is to invest upwards of £200m every year into UK-based start-ups and scale-ups.
Lee Strafford, CEO of ADV, said: "ADV has been established to help more of our emerging startups and scaleups to scale big. There are world class innovators in every corner of the UK. We intend to seek out the best investment opportunities at scale and ensure these companies, irrelevant of size and location, have the support they need to supercharge growth."

Lee Strafford, CEO - founder of Plusnet and Dotforge.
Keith Teare, Chair - founder of Easynet, RealNames, Archimedes Labs and co-founder of TechCrunch.

Andy Mulvenna, Investment Lead – co-founder of Brightpearl.
Jamie Coleman, Investment Lead - founder of Codebase.
David Fogel, Investment Lead - formerly Deputy Director and Head of Acceleration at Wayra UK.
The ADV investment builds on LGC's expanding SME Finance platform which already includes the 40% ownership of Pemberton, an independent asset management group which provides much-needed finance to small and medium sized enterprises in response to the continued retrenchment by traditional bank lenders. Pemberton recently closed its inaugural European Mid-Market Debt Fund with €1.2 billion of commitments and earlier this summer backed a second fund which plans to lend £500 million specifically in UK businesses to support their growth.
LGC also invested £10 million in Cambridge Innovation Capital (CIC), a Cambridge-based investor in technology and healthcare companies, which raised a total of £75 million in August 2016. CIC is a preferred investor of the University of Cambridge and has a unique relationship with Cambridge Enterprise, the commercialisation arm of the University, including co-investment opportunities and access to pre-emption rights over companies arising out of the University. In addition, CIC has established an unrivalled position within the Cambridge Cluster. To date, the Company has committed approximately £53 million to 16 companies in the rapidly growing technology and healthcare sectors.

Ally started his career with Motherwell, signing in 1981 from Fir Park Boys Club. After spending the 1987-88 season on loan at Clydebank, he finally broke into the first team at Fir Park the following season, displacing former United keeper John Gardiner. He achieved hero status with Motherwell in May 1991 in the Scottish Cup final against United. Badly injured in the second half, he bravely played on to help the 'Steelmen' win the cup for the first time in 39 years. That turned out to be his last game for the club - a contract dispute with manager Tommy McLean saw him side-lined, replaced with Billy Thomson and Sieb Dijkstra, loaned out to Bolton Wanderers and then eventually sold to Rangers for £300,000 in April 1992.
At Ibrox he collected a League Cup winners medal (DATE) but in his second attempt to gain a Scottish Cup medal, he was beaten by a Craig Brewster goal for United in the 1994 final. Linked with a move to United in the summer that year, he eventually arrived at Tannadice a year later as Billy Kirkwood rebuilt the squad for the promotion battle ahead, for a fee quoted at £250,000.
Appearing in the pre-season tour of Finland, he became the first-choice keeper during the season in the First Division, making his competitive debut against Morton in August 1995. An important player in the side as United regained top-flight status at the end of the campaign. He began the next season as No.1 keeper but was forced out through injury and illness and was once again replaced by Sieb Dijkstra. Unable to get back into the first team, he played reserve football until he left under freedom of contract in May 1998.
He then signed for Morton, spending three seasons with them, also becoming manager for a spell in 2001. He moved to Hamilton Academical shortly after, as a coach, and continued coaching when he moved to the USA.
Despite being called up to several Scotland squads he never won a full cap but did make an appearance for Scotland in a 'B' international against Wales in February 1994.
Greenock Morton 1 - 1 Dundee United
League (First Division)
Ally was born on this date in Hamilton.
Signed For Dundee United
Debut - Dundee United 1 - 1 Morton
Morton's message to United playing their first match out with the top flight of Scottish football for 35 years was "welcome to the First Division" as they gave us an early sample of how hard a task lies ahead of us this season. But given that the United line-up contained all five summer signings, there were some encouraging signs, particularly as five players were still suspended!
Last Appearance - Dundee United 1 - 0 Hearts
Pre-match interest centred mainly round the possible appearance of the two Scandinavians in United's side and when the teams were announced the surprise was not the presence of the pair, but the fact that Swede Kjell Olofsson was listed under his own name, the striker having signed a short term contract on the morning of the match. Norwegian Erik Perdersen, however, was listed as a trialist in a United starting eleven which showed a whole host of changes from the one which had drawn at East End Park.
