EROGLU: 'SOLUTION OF CYPRUS PROBLEM SHOULD BE PRIORITY OF ANASTASIADIS'
President Dervis Eroğlu said that the Greek Cypriot leader, Nikos Anastasiadis, should take into consideration the Cyprus problem as a priority, at the opening of the 5th Mormenekse Artichoke Festival which was attended by President Dervis Eroğlu. The Minister of Public Works and Transportation Hamza Ersan Saner, The Minister of Finance Ersin Tatar, and some parliament members and mayors also participated in the ceremony. In his speech, stating that festivals are very important to
display the Turkish Cypriot culture, President Eroğlu said 'Mormenekse Festival is very important to introduce artichokes to the external world and foreign markets'.
Moreover, expressing that he is making big efforts for the solution of the Cyprus problem with his authority given by people, Eroğlu said 'Only the Turkish Cypriot side's efforts are not enough to reach a fair and permanent solution in Cyprus. The Greek Cypriot side should also be willing to reach a solution in Cyprus'.
Stressing that two solution plans were previously prepared, President Eroğlu said that the Turkish Cypriot side accepted both of these plans but the Greek Cypriot side refused them. Adding that the Greek Cypriot side is experiencing economic problems at the moment, Eroğlu said 'We know their problem but negotiations should start as soon as possible and the Cyprus problem should be a priority for Greek Cypriot leader Nikos Anastasiadis. We are continuing our efforts to start the negotiations in the following months'.
PM KUCUK MET DOWNER
Prime Minister Irsen Küçük received the United Nations Secretary General's Special Envoy for Cyprus Alexander Downer. The meeting was held at the Prime Ministry and the Head of the Prime Ministry's EU Co-ordination Centre, Erhan Erçin, was present during the visit which continued for about half an hour.
Expressing that negotiations have been interrupted as a re
sult of elections in South Cyprus, PM Küçük said that Downer is meeting with the leaders in order to restart the negotiations.
'We are continuing to put forward all our best in order to find a solution to the Cyprus problem. I once again told Mr. Downer that we will always be the supporter of a solution which will be found within the framework of UN parameters' Mr. Küçük said.
As an answer to a question regarding negotiations, PM Küçük said that the date to restart the negotiations is not certain yet but he hoped a framework agreement is prepared by the end of this year which is also expected by Downer. Prime Minister İrsen Küçük also said that 2013 will be the most appropriate year for the solution of the Cyprus Problem.
KÜCUK: 'TRNC ECONOMY IS DEVELOPING'
Prime Minister Irsen Küçük said that South Cyprus and many European countries have been experiencing economic crisis in recent years and the TRNC economy is developing continuously thanks to the decisions taken at the right time by our Government.
Speaking during the General Meeting of Limasol Türk Kooperatif Bank, PM Küçük said that a co-operative which was established in Limasol opening 14 branches in various points of the country and employing more than 200 personnel means a big contribution to the whole country, not only to the co-operative system.
Küçük also added that our country's economy was developed 2.5 % in 2012 and this is proof of following a good route.
Moreover, stressing that their aim is to move our country to a better position, Küçük said that the 2013-2015 Program for Transition to Sustainable Economy which was signed with Turkey includes supporting the banking sector and decreasing interest rates. Küçük underlined that they hope interest rates decrease with the steps taken within the framework of the program.
DOWNER MET MINISTER OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OZGURGUN
The UN Secretary General's Special Adviser Alexander Downer met the Minister of Foreign Affairs Huseyin Özgürgün. Özgürgün said that he had a positive meeting with Downer and added that this was Downer's second visit of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Stating that in the past he discussed the Yesilirmak border with Downer, Özgürgün said that this time they talked about the steps which will be taken regarding the Cyprus issue and expressed his opinion to Downer regarding the beginning of the Cyprus negotiations as soon as
Downer said to Özgürgün that the crisis that the Greek Cypriot Administration has been going through is an important obstacle in terms of the beginning of the negotiations and added that a priority should be given to these economic problems and he does not believe the negotiations will start soon.
Reminding that Downer is making efforts to restart the negotiations Özgürgün said that Downer is also having contacts with Turkey and Greece, the Guarantor States and he is taking their opinions.
Stating that the negotiations have been continuing for a long time and they do not want to go beyond the UN parameters Özgürgün reminded Downer once more that the EU cannot be accepted as a side and a road map has to come out.
As a response to a question, Özgürgün said that the starting date of the negotiations can be the end of the year. Repeating that the negotiations should reach a result Özgürgün stated that the Greek Cypriot Leader Anastasiadis is an advantage as he had said 'yes' to the Annan Plan.
Expressing that Anastasiadis was not quite sure and he might say 'yes' to the Plan to show an opponent view Özgürgün said that: "If we take Anatasiadis's 'yes' as an acceptance, we go in the wrong direction".
Describing Anastasiadis as "The party leader of EOKA", Özgürgün added that EOKA is one of the main reasons of the continuation of the Cyprus problem today.
REACTION OF FOREIGN MINISTER OZGURGUN TO GREEK SIDE
TRNC Foreign Minister Huseyin Özgürgün has evaluated the Greek Cypriot Foreign Minister Yoannis Kasuilidis' recent foreign visits aiming to express the Greek Cypriot thesis on the Cyprus issue as interesting. Minister Özgürgün said that this attitude
of the Greek Cypriot Leadership shows their insincerity and unwillingness towards finding a solution to the Cyprus problem. Issuing a written statement,
Foreign Minister Özgürgün called on the countries which are closely watching the developments on the Cyprus issue to urge the Greek Cypriot Side to contribute to the negotiations process. Özgürgün stressed that: "The Turkish Side is determined to be the side contributing to the efforts aimed at finding a just and lasting solution on the island".
CYPRUS LETTER FROM MEMBERS OF USA CONGRESS TO BAN
Members of USA Congress, Ed Whitfield and Steve Cohen, opened a letter for signature at the Congress to be sent to the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon that brings together the two leaders of Cyprus about the Cyprus Problem and to call for action to find an urgent solution.
In the letter written up by Kentucky Parliamentarian of the Republican Party Ed Whitfield who is also the co-chair of Turkey Friendship Group at the USA House of Representatives and Tennessee Parliamentarian of the Democrat Party it was stated that: "As the members of the USA Congress under the auspices of the UN Secretary General office's mission of good intentions we support the negotiations and efforts
with regard to finding a comprehensive solution in Cyprus and reuniting the island as two-zones and a bi-communal federation.
It was pointed out in the letter that the economic crisis in South Cyprus makes the solution of the destabilizing problems that have been continuing for a long time vital. These problems can only be solved by the creation of a mutual consensus and co-operation atmosphere between the Turkish and Greek Cypriots.
In the letter, Whitfield and Cohen called the South Cyprus Leader Nikos Anastasiadis and the TRNC President Dervis Eroğlu to come together to restart the negotiations.
The two Parliamentarians stressed in the text they had sent to the members of the Congress in order that they give signature support to the letter that the opportunity of finding a solution for the Cyprus problem and reuniting of the island has never been made so obligatory.
In the letter it was mentioned that the comprehensive solution that has been agreed on not only will provide benefits to the inhabitants of Cyprus in terms of humanistic, political and economic issues, but also the solution will bring benefits to Israel, Greece and the whole region including Turkey.
The written letter aimed to be sent to the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon will also be sent to the TRNC President Dervis Eroğlu, the Greek Cypriot Administration Leader Anastasiadis, TR Minister of Foreign Affairs Ahmet Davutoglu, Greece Minister of Foreign Affairs Dimitris Avramopulos, the USA Minister of Foreign Affairs John Kerry, the UK Minister of Foreign Affairs William Hague, President of the EU Commission Jose Manuel Barroso and other EU officials.
THE ECONOMIST: "DIVIDED THEY FALL"
The Economist magazine pointed to the financial crisis in South Cyprus, natural gas reserves in the island and the EU negotiation process of Turkey and defended that the island should be reunified.
In its last issue the weekly news and trade magazine Economist said in the article under the title: "Divided they fall" that the developments in the economy of South Cyprus were bad and it was time to rethink the reunification of the island.
In the first paragraph Economist wrote: "Cyprus, it is said, never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity. After its euro bail-out, that needs to change, not least for the sake of its battered economy. Cypriots face the grim reality that, thanks mainly to the collapse of much of their financial-services industry, GDP will shrink by 15% this year, another 15% in 2014, and perhaps 5% more in 2015."
It is also defended in the article that : "It will take years of hardship and painful structural reforms before Cyprus's GDP returns to anywhere near its level before the bail-out. Unlike the rest of the euro zone's beleaguered
periphery, however, Cyprus has two promising sources of growth waiting to be tapped. One is the recently discovered Aphrodite gas field in the eastern Mediterranean. The other is its tourism industry, which is underdeveloped and has plenty of scope for foreign investment. The best way for Cyprus to exploit both as fast as possible would be to patch up its 40-year-old division."
The article also pointed out that the obvious and cheapest way of exporting the gas would be through a new pipeline to Turkey itself and added: "In short, the gas field has created a big new incentive for unifying the island." It was also recorded in the article that most of the large majority of Greek-Cypriots who voted heavily against the last big attempt at unification, the UN's Annan plan, in 2004 did so because they were about to join the European Union and felt their future bargaining position would be stronger.
Attributing to the independent studies the article suggested that the whole island's GDP might be boosted by three percentage points a year for the five years after a settlement, a gain that translates into around €5,500 ($7,150) for every Cypriot household.
It is also claimed in the article that Turkey still desires EU membership however it is not possible before solving the Cyprus problem and continued : "If Mr. Anastasiadis can show enough negotiating flexibility, Mr. Eroğlu is hardly in a position to reject a new settlement that grows out of the Annan plan." Finally it is said in the article that a combination of Cyprus's economic meltdown and the Aphrodite gas field should be enough to justify a new attempt.
PALESTINIANS SEEK ASYLUM IN TRNC
A total of 37 Palestinians who have been living in South Cyprus fled to the TRNC and went to the Refugee Rights Association in North Cyprus for asylum request. They said that they have been under pressure and treated badly for 7 years in South Cyprus and therefore they have applied for asylum in the TRNC.
They also said that they have been ill treated in South Cyprus because they are Muslims.
Indicating that they will help the Palestinian refugees, the President of the North Cyprus Red Crescent association, Esad Altay said that they have provided food and accommodation to the refugees and called those who are willing to help to contact with them as soon as possible.
STATEMENT BY TURKISH FOREIGN AFFAIRS MINISTER ON CYPRUS ISSUE
Turkish Foreign Affairs Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu made a statement concerning the visit of UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon's Special Advisor to Cyprus Alexander Downer to Turkey and said "This is a belated visit. We expected Mr. Downer to launch a new process following the elections in South Cyprus."
Drawing attention that the economic crisis and internal debates in the Greek Cypriot side delay the contacts in question, and the situation is obvious in Cyprus, Davutoğlu expressed that there is a side which wants the negotiations to
start as soon as possible and reach a solution and on the other hand there is another side which extends the problem over time and produces pretence.
Davutoğlu pointed out that the Greek Cypriot side has halted the negotiations by pretending the elections held in South Cyprus last year and she hopes she could impose some things upon Turkey during her EU term-presidency, and said:
Pointing out that he discussed the subject with US Secretary of State John Kerry, Foreign Affairs Minister of Russia Sergey Lavrov and High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Catherine Ashton in the last weeks and he would forward what has been discussed to Mr. Downer, Davutoğlu added:
"Now, it is necessary to start the process somehow and to put forth an attitude concerning this problem, if the pretence continues, my proposal with three alternatives will be on the negotiation table at that moment. We can arrive at a solution or we can come to an agreement around a limited solution. If they cannot arrive at a comprehensive solution or if they say "these sources belong to us and the sources in the North part belong to Turkish Cypriots", then it is time to think about a two-state solution".
Underlining that he expect an obvious attitude from the international community, UN and all related parties, Davutoğlu added:
"We can solve the Cyprus problem as immediately as possible instead of creating problems. We should go into a solution by negotiation and without leaving it to time".
TURKISH PRIME MINISTER ATALAY IS IN TRNC
Turkish Prime Minister Beşir Atalay is in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus for a one day official visit at the invitation of TRNC Prime Minister İrsen Küçük.
Atalay has been welcomed by the Turkish Ambassador to Lefkoşa Halil İ. Akça, Internal Affairs and Local Administrations Minister Nazım Çavuşoğlu, Economy and Energy Minister Sunat Atun, Minister of Finance Ersin Tatar and other authorities at the airport. Atalay has attended activities organized for Holy Birth Week in the Eastern Mediterranean University.
FOREIGN BANKS IN SOUTH CYPRUS ARE GOING TO LEAVE SOUTH CYPRUS
Greek Cypriot daily Fileleftheros stated that the foreign banks operating in South Cyprus are leaving South Cyprus by terminating their activities, the first statement in this respect was made by a Russian Bank.
According to the news, the foreign banks in South Cyprus are terminating their activities in South Cyprus because of the restrictions imposed upon capital market following the decisions of the Euro Group and the first decision in this respect has been taken by the Russian VTB Company.
The newspaper added that the CEO of the Russian VTB company, Herbert Moos, made a statement to the Russian media and said that the "Russian Commercial Bank" in South Cyprus which belongs to the company will terminate its activities in phases, because they do not believe that the Greek Cypriot economy will recover.
On the other hand, the Deputy Manager of the Russian Commercial Bank's South Cyprus Branch, Vladimir Popov, also made a statement and said that the bank is having no economic problem yet to experience problems due to the restrictions imposed upon capital markets.
Popov emphasized that the restrictions for the banks that have no economic problems should be lifted.
In the news, the memorandum releasing the activities of foreign banks under some conditions was reminded and it was stated that the memorandum has not been considered sufficiently and its implementation will be determined during the week.

Welcome to the Orion Art at White Dog Studio Blog!
This landscape was done about 10 years ago. I was in my oil pastel phase. A perfect medium for a busy life. The kids were all in school, I was working full time (still am) and pastels are easy to use, work on in a spare moment, without lots of cleanup that oils would have.
I love the section of landscape this depicts. The look of fields of color showing through a line of trees is beautiful to me.
So I had this landscape in a drawer. It needs new glass and I can hang it. One of those little jobs I've put aside. When I found it, I thought of trying it in oils.
One image is conventional use of color, the other not so conventional.
Here they are, oil on panel (old dresser drawer panels), now that they're posted, I see a few things to adjust, but they're done otherwise.

The Root Reviews
The Lion King and the Great Circle of Nostalgia
Tonja Renée Stidhum
Filed to:The King Has Returned
Screenshot: Walt Disney Studios (YouTube )
The year was 1994, and a Tiny Tonja sat in a crowded theater to witness what would become her favorite Disney film, and one of her favorite films of all time. Twenty-five years later, that same film would be reimagined using CGI-animated technology that the younger version of Tonja could've never fathomed.
Jon Favreau takes the reigns as director of The Lion King (2019), which stars Donald Glover (Adult Simba), Beyoncé Knowles Carter (Adult Nala), JD McCrary (Young Simba), Shahadi Wright Joseph (Young Nala), James Earl Jones (Mufasa), Alfre Woodard (Sarabi), Chiwetel Ejiofor (Scar), Seth Rogen (Pumbaa), Billy Eichner (Timon), John Oliver (Zazu), Keegan Michael-Key (Kamari), Florence Kasumba (Shenzi), Eric André (Azizi) and John Kani (Rafiki).
In case you're itching for a 25-year-old (except shiny and new!) synopsis, here it is, via IMDb:
After the murder of his father, a young lion prince flees his kingdom only to learn the true meaning of responsibility and bravery.
On June 24, I was invited by Twitter to attend a private advanced screening of The Lion King, causing me to convulse into big stan hysterics.
As time got closer to the screening date (July 10) and as my excitement grew, so did my anxiousness. And I realized something: It was going to be very difficult for me to fairly critique and assess this film in its own right because I feel like it would be impossible to live up to the original, which I hold so near and dear to my heart. After all, a lot of this film is banking on nostalgia. So, the only way I can truly present my thoughts and feelings is if I separate the two, acknowledging the satisfactory balance of paying homage to the old while creating something new.
The Familiar
As soon as the iconic opening chant (which translates to "Here comes a lion, Father; oh yes, it's a lion") rumbled through the Dolby speakers at the TCL Chinese Theatre, I knew what time it was. I sunk into my seat with a smile, ready for the gloriousness. My eyes dilated with wonder as I watched one of my favorite film openings replay shot-for-shot (with a few slight differences) in a gorgeous display of crisp and lifelike CGI animation on that huge IMAX screen. Wow.
Every single fan of the original version breathed a sigh of relief once it was announced that Jones would be reprising his role as Mufasa. Now, while I never expected an echo of his previous delivery, I did notice something seemed much more subdued and quiet about his delivery this time around. I posit that it could be Favreau's specific direction, Jones' advanced age or an integration of both. Either way, it made me pause. Not good or bad, but more like a "hmm," if that makes sense.
McCrary and Joseph have a bit of an advantage, having had experience with the Broadway musical rendition of The Lion King. So, hearing their voices in "I Just Can't Wait To Be King" was like an eerie sense of déjà vu, but with a little bit of McCrary's added flair (that boy can sing!), which I loved. Plus, McCrary's voice acting work is so well done (that little growl!). His choked-up little voice during that heartbreaking part—you know the part—had me aww-ing big time. He and Joseph have amazing chemistry.
The Unfamiliar
Beyoncé's Nala is definitely more empowered in the current iteration. Not to say she wasn't in the original—she was the impetus for Simba realizing his place as king—but here, she is not merely a device for the protagonist, but a weapon in her own right. And it was all done in a very Beyoncé manner. In fact, there is one particular action-packed scene where my cousin, Deandre, leaned over to me and whispered with a grin, "Oh my God, it's like her movie Obsessed." Oh, and her "Are you with me, lions?" line is totally "Formation."
Thankfully, Ejiofor's Scar isn't an impersonation of Jeremy Irons' original. While I will forever cherish the unmatched sarcasm of Irons, Ejiofor takes a bit of that and adds a layer of viciousness not previously seen. For example, the "run away and never return" scene with Simba is punched up so heavily, I found myself cringing. Ouch. Damn, Scar. Yet, it was quite effective as it truly elevated Simba's journey and arc.
In that same vein, Kasumba's Shenzi is downright terrifying. She completely transforms Whoopi Goldberg's snarky Shenzi into someone completely menacing and I actually loved the change. Additionally, Michael-Key and André were a hilarious duo.
Eichner and Rogen completely impressed me, not only with their camaraderie but their singing (shout-out to Pharrell Williams' production on the soundtrack, by the way). Also, the big "Hakuna Matata" change made me chuckle, heartily. Other fans of the original will probably appreciate it, too.
Lastly, I do want to touch on the stark differences between the 2D animation original and the more realistic (live-action) CGI animation in this remake. I went in knowing we wouldn't get the same flamboyant expressions of the original, but I must say I was very impressed by how expressive Simba's (both young and adult) face was throughout the film without going overboard. Kudos to the animation team for that.

Following the screening, we were treated to a delightful afterparty with food, photos and a panel featuring Eichner, Rogen, Kasumba, Woodard, Ejiofor and Favreau. Then a second panel followed focusing on one of the most significant aspects of the film: the music. Favreau returned for that panel along with Lebo M (That aforementioned chant you hear at the beginning of "Circle of Life?" That's him.) and (Oh my God, I kind of stanned out at this part, as he's my all-time favorite composer) Hans Zimmer.

Surprisingly, one of the most interesting parts of the panel involved Chance the Rapper.
"It was a real game of understanding how people who knew [the original film] well would receive it and the guy that actually helped the most with that was Chance the Rapper," Favreau recalled. "Donald Glover said [to me], 'this is the biggest Lion King fan you'll ever meet.' So, [Chance] came by [...] and I showed some footage and it was so interesting watching him watch [it] because he hung on every word, he mouthed along with it. He knew what we changed."
I can relate. While watching, I found myself subconsciously counting the beats in this remake, comparing it to the original (certain moments moved much faster than the original animated film). I can't help it, I've seen the film so many times I could perform it as a solo act—songs, ad-libs and all.
Plus, here's a fun fact: Chance voiced a bunch of the animals (most notably, a nervous antelope) during Timon and Pumbaa's sequence within the grub paradise. Oh, and here's another fun fact: Lebo initially recorded a demo for the chant in the opening sequence and that first-take was later used in the original film. A more fun fact: That very same demo was used in this remake. Talk about perfection.
Speaking of perfection, to wrap the afterparty, Lebo, Clydene Jackson and The Lion King choir treated us to a rousing live rendition of "The Circle of Life" that left the entire room shook with emotion. It was otherworldly. It moved us all.

The FBI wants artificial intelligence tools that can ID people with burnt, cut or otherwise altered fingerprints.
Any criminal worth their salt knows to wipe their crime scene for fingerprints, but some go a step further and try to erase the prints from their fingers entirely.
For decades, the practice of altering fingerprints has helped wrongdoers evade the law, but today the FBI thinks artificial intelligence could help catch those especially ambitious offenders.
The bureau on Friday asked the tech industry to weigh in on how AI tools could detect altered fingerprints and match them to their unaltered counterparts in the Next Generation Identification System, the FBI's massive biometric database.
The explanations behind altered fingerprints are as varied as the prints themselves, and not all are rooted in illegal intentions. Criminals might mask their identities using acid, surgery or a number of other techniques, but frequent contact with chemicals and rough surfaces, as well as certain diseases and medical treatments, could also unintentionally change fingerprints.
But whatever the cause, the FBI said it wants everyone to be identifiable in the NGI System.
Officials requested potential vendors detail the applications and real-time learning capabilities of their artificial intelligence platform and describe ways it could automate the biometric identification process. After assessing the different technologies, the FBI will select groups to prototype a system that can "distinguish [a] normal fingerprint pattern from an irregular pattern," according to the RFI.
Ultimately, officials said they're looking for a system that can automatically teach itself variations of any given fingerprint without explicit training.
Responses are due Oct. 12.


Hermannsburg (est. 1877) was originally a Lutheran mission and was the first town in Central Australia, pre-dating Alice Springs. It was also home to the famous Aboriginal watercolour artist, Albert Namatjira. In 1982 the area was returned to the Aboriginal people and in 1988, the German style whitewashed buildings were restored to their original 19th century condition. It is now on the National Heritage Register. Over a dozen buildings including the church, school buildings, tannery, meathouse and various mission residences can be explored. These buildings date to the 1880's and 1890's. As you wander through the buildings, learn of the sorrows and the joys of the early missionaries but more importantly learn how the local Aranda people and the Europeans worked together to survive and thrive.


A powerful blast ripped through Kosovo's capital early Monday, killing two and injuring 10 others, officials said.
The explosion happened around 2:30 a.m. (0030 GMT) in a shopping mall in the center of Pristina. Police said the explosion was caused by an explosive device.
All the victims were taken to a local hospital, police spokesman Veton Elshani said.
"We do not know the motive for the moment and we do not know who would stand behind this explosion," Elshani said.
He said that most of the victims were injured by a concrete block falling after the blast. It was not immediately clear what was the target of the attack.
Last month police ransacked one of the shops in the mall and arrested several ethnic Albanians suspected of involvement in the shooting of a policeman.
Kosovo is formally a part of Serbia, but has been under U.N. and NATO control since 1999 after the alliance bombed Serb forces and ended the troops' brutal crackdown on separatist ethnic Albanians.

At a time of rising fundamentalisms, which are pushing back hard against women's rights at every level and across the world, a new report 'Looking Back to Look Forward: The Role of Religious Actors in Gender Equality since the Beijing Declaration' argues that understandings of the gender-religious nexus is critical for achieving Sustainable Development Goal 5: Gender Equality.
Nearly 84 per cent of the world's population identify with a religious group. The report, authored by Dr. Nora Khalaf-Elledge, reveals how religious actors have advanced and hindered gender equality since the adoption of the Beijing Platform for Action and Declaration in 1995. The report provides a critical and contextualized understanding of how religion and gender politics are intertwined in all countries, high and low-income alike.
The pushback
The report addresses how patriarchal gender norms continue to be packaged in the language of religion because it legitimises them. Anti-rights actors are mobilising religious language to block or even reverse progress on gender equality. Religious language can make patriarchal practices appear divinity ordained and unchangeable.
For example, although 189 states have ratified the 1981 Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), many countries still maintain reservations to specific articles of the convention. Over 60 percent of the 440 recorded reservations are religion-based.
The potential
The report also profiles the work of religious actors, who are advancing gender equality, from maternal health to LGBTQI+ rights. The examples given in the report show how religious leaders and actors are often trusted voices within communities. Religious actors can be critical changemakers, in advocating for stronger gender just laws, challenging social norms, acting as moral compasses and legislators and stepping in, when governments fail to provide social protection.
The new report is co-published by ACT Alliance with Act Church of Sweden, Islamic Relief Worldwide and Side by Side, in partnership with the International Partnership on Religion and Sustainable Development, the Joint Learning Initiative on Local and Faith Communities and Sexual Violence Initiative GBV Hub, and Goldsmiths, University of London.
Choosing partners who are leaders on gender issues in their contexts: International collaboration and partnerships are pivotal for achieving all SDGs, especially now as the world tries to recover from the global COVID-19 pandemic. Achieving SDG 5 is deeply interconnected with achieving all SDGs.
Encourage religious literacy: Development agencies need to provide training throughout their organizational structures that conveys a basic understanding of the ways in which religious discourses are context-specific, historically situated, internally diverse, continually reinforced and altered by both internal and external factors.
Conducting comprehensive gender analyses prior to projects and partnerships: A comprehensive, context-specific, and theory-based gender analysis can highlight the religion-gender intersection in each locality and facilitate the inclusion of religious actors. It can also uncover the patriarchal power dynamics behind religious arguments supporting gender inequality.
As world leaders, institutions, civil society, and faith actors virtually gather at the Generation Equality Forum in Paris, we must find common ground and together work to counter rising fundamentalisms, strengthen progressive movements within faith communities and women's leadership, and demand the action required for achieving the Beijing Platform for Action.
Today more than ever, it's time to seek allies in working for gender justice. This new report calls upon all stakeholders, who are working for gender equality, to critically engage with the religion and gender nexus.

Egypt's perfect run under Javier Aguirre came to an end when a weakened side conceded a late equaliser in a 1-1 draw at Niger in a dead-rubber African Nations Cup qualifier on Saturday.
Substitute Mahmoud Trezeguet scored with his first touch after coming on early in the second half but lively forward Amadou Moutari brought Niger level with a fine strike eight minutes from time.
Already qualified virtue of their point tally before being granted the hosting rights of the 21 June-19 July Nations Cup, Egypt finished second in Group J with 13 points, three behind leaders Tunisia.
The draw against Niger marked the first time Egypt have failed to win since Aguirre took over following an embarrassing World Cup campaign under his predecessor, Hector Cuper.
The Mexican boss oversaw four straight wins in the Nations Cup qualifiers before the stumble in N'Djamena.
The Pharaohs next host Nigeria on Tuesday in their first warm-up for the Nations Cup, which they are seeking to win for the first time since lifting the last of their record seven trophies in 2010.
Aguirre gave debuts to Pyramids duo Ahmed Mansour and Nabil Emad and Ittihad's on-loan youngster Ammar Hamdi, as well as introducing other fresh faces such as Ahly's right-back Mohamed Hani and midfielder Amr El-Sulaya.
The likes of Liverpool star Mohamed Salah and West Bromwich defender Ahmed Hegazy were rested.

Church & Parish Hall
Parish Hall
St Michael & All Angels' Parish Hall
A centre for the community, in the heart of Bedford Park
St Michael's stylish yet historic Parish Hall is in constant use by the community - for education, parties, meetings and commercial and charity events (see below for some of the regular activities). It is available for bookings, particularly during school holidays.
The Hall adjoins the church, with its main entrance facing the lawn at the junction of Woodstock Road and Priory Avenue - see picture. The Michael Room is upstairs, reached by stairs to the left of the porch. The Gabriel and Raphael Rooms adjoin each other on the ground floor.
St Michael's Parish Hall was reopened in 2001,
after a £500,000 regeneration project, which rebuilt the Victorian hall as a new community centre for the whole of Bedford Park. The capacity of the building was doubled by adding an extra floor, providing three halls. All are available for hire, at competitive rates. A list of forthcoming concerts and events and regular activities can be found on the noticeboard outside the Hall.
St Michael and All Angels Parish Hall (or Parish Room, as it was originally called) was designed in 1884 by Bedford Park architect Maurice B. Adams, St. Michael's first churchwarden. A fund was set up to raise money for the Parish Room, through events such as a three-day "Garden Fete and Fancy Fayre" in June 1886, under the patronage of HRH The Princess Mary Adelaide, Duchess of Teck. The Parish Room was completed in 1887.

Emerging and legacy brominated flame retardants in the breast milk of first time Irish mothers suggest positive response to restrictions on use of HBCDD and Penta- and Octa-BDE formulations

Nina Wemken
Claire Cellarius

Marie Coggins
The brominated flame retardants (BFRs) hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD), eight polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), and decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) were measured in 16 pools of human milk from Ireland. Concentrations of BDEs-47, -99, −100, −153, and HBCDD were significantly lower (p < 0.05) than those in Irish human milk collected in 2011. In contrast, concentrations of BDE-209 in our study exceeded those in 2011, and while decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) was not detected in 2011 it was detected in 3 of our samples. This suggests increased use of DBDPE and that while restrictions on the Penta- and Octa-BDE formulations are reducing human exposure, those on Deca-BDE use have yet to reduce body burdens. Estimated exposures for nursing infants to all target BFRs do not suggest a health concern. A one compartment pharmacokinetic model was used to predict body burdens arising from BFR intakes via air, dust and diet. While for most targeted BFRs, predicted and observed body burdens derived from our human milk data compared reasonably well; predicted BDE-209 and DBDPE values were substantially lower than observed. This suggests exposure pathways not included in the model like dermal uptake from fabrics may be important, and highlights knowledge gaps about the human half-lives and bioavailability of these contaminants.

Single Parenting Rocks! Father Of Four Shares Inspirational Story Of Raising His Kids
By Ivy Rodgers
The U.S. Census Bureau (2011) states that there are about 13.7 million single parents living in the United States. Collectively these parents raise 22 million children, the number being roughly 26% of children in the country.
Many negative assumptions follow single parents, the most common being insinuations that they are selfish and feel a need to deny children the joy of having two parents. However, some of these parents have no choice in the matter and find the best way to give their children a balanced life.
A post shared by Seth Megow (@ipad_in_the_dishwasher) on Feb 24, 2018 at 8:53am PST
READ ALSO: Single 'Super Dad' Is Inspiring Parents Worldwide After Adopting 4 Children With Special Needs
Seth Megow, 33, of Valdosta, Georgia is a single parent to four children, a boy and three girls. Following his divorce, he gained custody of his children and has his hands full taking care of them. Moreover, this is no easy feat.
While having children around can be fun, Megow says that it is also physically and emotionally demanding, even more so, as there is no other adult around to take on some of the responsibilities.
There is no one to tag out with. No one to jump in the ring for us, while we take a breather. At times we get so tired or emotionally/mentally/physically drained, it's hard to keep up with it all.
But even with all the drama, Megow still finds the experience worthwhile. Whether he is making meals or going out on father/daughter dates, he feels an overwhelming sense of pride and joy in seeing his children happy.
A post shared by Seth Megow (@ipad_in_the_dishwasher) on Feb 10, 2018 at 2:41pm PST
Sometimes, being a single parent means making sacrifices he says, like putting off personal needs to make sure the children have what they need.

Finally, Megow has these words of advice for single parents, a reminder that their labor is not in vain and the joy they get from making their children happy is a reward on its own.
So, my single parent friends, yes you might be tired, neglected, financially strapped, and isolated. No one sees your sacrifices or trials. However, remember this is a blessing. It's a Heavenly gift to be able to serve in private.
Megow and his children have a website, http://www.whoputmyipadinthedishwasher.com/, where they get to share the fun times and days of their lives with fans. Megow also shares tips on life after divorce as well as his thoughts for the future.
A post shared by Seth Megow (@ipad_in_the_dishwasher) on Jun 29, 2018 at 3:56pm PDT
Children may not seem to understand why single parenting occurs until they are much older, but it remains the responsibility of parents to make the process as painless as possible. Moreover, Megow's story is sure to provide some positive reinforcement.

John Krasinski Trolls Jenna Fischer at Stanley Cup With Epic Office Throwback
Well played, John Krasinski! The 39-year-old actor cheered on the Boston Bruins during game seven of the Stanley Cup Final. However, his former castmate from The Office, Jenna Fischer, was rooting for the St. Louis Blues. While the Jim and Pam co-stars have been bantering back and forth on Twitter throughout the tournament, Krasinski took this friendly feud to a whole new level on Wednesday by tweeting a video with David Denman.

Q: Find out mapped property using AutoMapper I'm looking to 'map' errors when persisting DTOs back to the property in a viewmodel corresponding to the DTO property that caused the error, PersonDto.PreferedName causes a DB error, say Cannot be null, and this property maps to the viemodel PersonViewModel.Name, I want to be able to display an error message in the langiage of the view, e.g. "Name is required".
Is there any way I can query Mapper or some other AutoMapper object to find which viewmodel property PreferedName maps to?

A: It looks like you are getting the errors from the ModelState but to answer the original question you can use the following
using AutoMapper;
using System;
using System.Linq;

namespace ConsoleApplicationAutoMapper
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg => cfg.CreateMap<Order, OrderDto>()
                                                        .ForMember(dest => dest.DtoMyProperty, x => x.MapFrom(y => y.MyProperty)
                                                          ));

            Order order = new Order() { MyProperty = 12 };

            var typeMaps = config.CreateMapper()
                                 .ConfigurationProvider
                                 .GetAllTypeMaps()
                                 .Where(t => t.SourceType == typeof(Order) && t.DestinationType == typeof(OrderDto))

I caught this at the open-air cinema in Argostoli on the island of Cephalonia in Greece. I was on holiday and most definitely in holiday mode which was just as well. If I'd have spent £9 to see this in London's West End (extremely unlikely though that is) I'd have been a tad pissed. This is a fine example of the Hollywood teen terror flick and as is, therefore, predictable, stupid, cheesy and, goddamn it, sometimes entertaining too. The plot focuses on a handful of American teens who are saved from certain death in a plane crash by the prescience of one of their number. Thereafter, they believe they have cheated death and must try to guess when death will strike next so as to outwit the force and remain alive.
As staple fodder of the US teen-horror genre this is mostly by the numbers. The idea of cheating death isn't new, even for Hollywood, but there's certainly a certain amount of vigour on display. The cast are all fresh-faced youngsters having been tested out previously on TV shows such as Dawson's Creek and the like. Most of them deliver adequate performances but the two most likable characters are the two FBI agents who have some humorous dialogue and some brief but amusing scenes. Shame there wasn't more of them. Common logic is noticeably absent, most memorably in a sequence when a train trashes a car on the railway line which explodes killing its driver and doesn't think stop to enquire after what just happened.
The pace hots up as the 'who is next to die?' structure beds down, and the death sequences increasingly take on the facade of 18-rated, real-life version of the board game Mousetrap, with an almost inconceivable chain of events leading to some deaths. This culminates in the final sequence which is far more funny than scary. Entertaining by the end but only if you're very undemanding mood.


As a part of our "Queer Kitchen" series, and in light of current events, the TransInterQueer e.V. and the Schwules Museum* will host a discussion on the topic of Trans* inclusive spaces. Lesbenberatung, Wildwasser (requested), and the Schwules Museum* among others, will be present to contribute.
The discussion will begin with some short film selections ("Sense8", "Transparent", "Herstory") and will be followed by a discussion session on lesbian and trans* identities in a majority "cis" lesbian community. Afterwards, our guests will discuss the development of their "spaces," which over time have developed into places that also include trans* people.
How were these opening processes brought about? How did they avoid conflicts? Above all how do trans* people, who live and work as a part of these spaces, perceive and understand these openings?
Sunday November 6th, 6:30pm in the Schwules Museum* Café. Free entry.
We try to make sure that german and english native speakers alike can attend our event.

Bill McDonough and the architecture firm featured in Western Art & Architecture story
You can see the full article here.
And here's an excerpt–
In the mid-1980s, architect William McDonough was commissioned by the Environmental Defense Fund to build a headquarters in New York whose construction materials were to be as non-toxic as technology would allow and whose signature traits would include energy efficiency.
The 20,000-square-foot [office] was a watershed in environmental friendliness for workers and could boast the novel application of sustainable practices in an industry routinely rapped for circumventing them. But the scope of the project would stretch far beyond its political and even its structural merit. For McDonough, it was the equivalent of crossing the Rubicon, a passage from the old days and old ways of building that neglected to take into account the true cost of consuming nonrenewable resources and tended to be cavalier about the carcinogenic constituents in everything from floor coverings to light fixtures. McDonough would go on to be the first recipient of the Presidential Award for Sustainable Development in 1996 and to co-author with chemist Michael Braungart Cradle to Cradle in 2002, a 200-page epistle concerning ecologically beneficial — or "eco-effective" — principles aimed at preserving the planet, product by product, structure by structure.
…. What distinguishes an architect like McDonough from the merely well-intentioned is that he both advocates and applies methods of production which aim to ensure that the life of a material moves from cradle to cradle, so to speak, instead of from cradle to grave. In a concept predicated on design and building but not limited to it, McDonough proposes products whose utility is as versatile as their lifespan is infinite. Toward that end, the architect who earned the epithet "Hero for the Planet" in 1999 from Time magazine collaborated with Braungart to create such items as a fabric strong enough to serve as upholstery, but safe enough to eat. And at the close of the fabric's aesthetic life, it can gain new vitality or be reborn as a source of compost. There is nothing outlandish about products whose value is enhanced by components that lend themselves to a constant cycle of rebirth. But short of a revolution among a myriad of industries — though one may be in the offing amid existing economic and energy conditions — there is, for every idealist and his counterpart pragmatist, a universal syntax that aids sustainable practices.
If nature serves as the archetype for making things, then the metaphor for architecture is a tree, which McDonough and his co-author argue is never isolated from the systems around it. A multitude of measures that make up the canon of green building might best be likened to the law of parsimony, where the simplest solution is the most elegant one. In the context of ecologically sensitive design, what is old is new. That premise is in play in such concepts as daylighting — positioning of windows to make optimal use of natural light — and in the use of thermal mass to ensure temperature stability and reduce costs associated with heating, ventilating and air conditioning. ….
