Challenging Harmful Norms and Practices
MIFUMI is the largest women's rights agency operating at grassroots level in Uganda enabling the provision of focused community based, complete range of support for survivors of domestic violence. It is a pioneering campaigning organization, and the only one globally addressing the existence of bride price and polygamy as a cultural driver of violence against women and children.
Harmful norms and practices arise from beliefs and expectations that negatively impact on people in a society, especially on women. These used to be referred to as "cultural practices" however, the term "harmful practices," is preferable to harmful traditional or cultural practices as it avoids lumping together the good with the bad practices. For this reason, anything that society or culture does that is harmful is simply called a harmful practice. Harmful practices are usually thought of as arising in backward and rural based communities where traditional culture is entrenched. However, this is not the case because every society, whether urban or rural has harmful practices that are peculiar to it. For instance, the culture of guns and drugs in America is a harmful practice, as is the culture of fast food in most of Europe. Violence against women is a harmful culture, that is endemic throughout the world and that is condoned, cultivated and kept alive by the patriarchal society we live in which has historically placed women in a disadvantaged position.
In Africa, as in other parts of the world, women are disadvantaged by what is called the unwritten rules of society. In the past, there were many things that women were not allowed to do. For instance, there were food taboos for women. Women were not allowed to eat chicken which was a delicacy reserved only for men. Some people believe the taboo arose from the fear that since women did the cooking they might eat the chicken during the preparation so the safest way was to forbid women to eat it!
If you look closely at these so-called cultural practices, you will find that in many cases they keep women in a subordinate position. A clear example is the requirement that women should kneel when greeting, and is seen as a sign of good manners. However, kneeling only serves to reinforces the plot of patriarchal authority, especially in the domestic homestead.
Many social norms and practices for women arise from the roles that society has accorded them as mothers, carers and social organisers. Such stereotypical roles subscribe women to marriage and domesticate them, limit their aspirations and prevent them from realizing their potential in life. Women and girls who resist or rebel against some of these social expectations and beliefs are often punished or stigmatized. Women's roles as carers result in them viewing marriage as the main goal in life. It results in them remaining in the home looking after children or the sick and doing menial tasks. They are prevented from going out to work to achieve their potential. Women are also seen as having the role as social organisers. For example, in Uganda, it is common for funerals to be organised by women's groups who do the cooking, the fetching of the firewood and water and making sure everybody is fed and washing up the plates afterwards.
Some of these current practices are helpful to society but others are centered on women's oppression under a patriarchal society. It is a recurring theme of women's oppression and discrimination. As Ato Quayson, in his book Calibrations: Reading for the Social, (2003) writes, "There is an inescapable sense that the redefinition of the female role comes at an incredibly high cost". The worst affected category of people in the world are female and poor, uneducated and black. These are the kind of women MIFUMI has made it her mission to support.
Why have harmful gender norms taken so long to be addressed?
This is why many harmful practices are often ignored, and policy makers fear to tackle them. Instead they are swept under the carpet in the guise of not wanting to interfere with the cultural practices of people, or with the sovereignty of nations, when the harmful practice is perpetuated by the State. In the case of inaction, it is the women who end up paying the price for these practices.
Bride Price as a harmful gender practice
MIFUMI was able to unearth and tackle the harmful practice of bride price and violations arising from it because it is operating in rural communities and is in close contact with the most marginalized women and girls. For example, MIFUMI became aware of the need to do something about Bride Price which was a cultural driver of violence against women, by listening and hearing what women were saying to us about its oppressive nature.
The reason women, especially poor women in rural areas, favour bride price or condone wife beating has to do with victimization and vulnerability and the silencing of voices of women so that they internalize the oppression and empathize with the abuser, in what is commonly known as the Stockholm syndrome. A way of empowering women is to enable them to value themselves differently, not for the number of cows they can fetch, but for their skills and aspirations.
The case of Joyce Nekesa outlined below illustrates some of the ways the custom and practice of bride price harm women.
Joyce Nekesa: A case study on harmful gender norms in modern society (or modernity)
Joyce Nekesa got married at 17 years of age. They were neighbours, he noticed her just like she had noticed him. They decided to get married. Joyce says: "He got some cows and paid to my father After paying the cows, we had five children together."
After having the five children, he started neglecting her and he was always in the company of other women. Whenever she raised this with him, he would start beating her. Each time he beat her he would say, "I am beating my property, I am beating my cows," because his father had paid three cows and three goats at her traditional marriage.
Joyce has known no peace or happiness in her marriage. She believes that sometimes her husband mistreated and beat her so she could leave to enable him bring another woman to her home. But when she did not leave – he left her and rented a place at a trading centre. He lived there with another woman.
Joyce stayed on and managed her small food vending kiosk; selling tea and chapatti. He however would come to take all the money from the sales. Each time she asked him where the money they were making from the business was going, he would tell her, she has no right to ask him. He would respond saying she was just a squatter in his home and had no right to question him on issues regarding the money she made from the kiosk.
When he was upset, he would beat her using a whip, his hands and kick her with his feet. One day he beat her badly. She tried to defend herself but failed because he was strong. She decided to leave and returned to her parents' home.
Her father started to pressure her to return to her marital home because they did not have cows to refund her Bride Price; adding that when she left, she left to go get married. When her mother tried to speak on her behalf, they could not let her say anything concerning Nekesa and her marriage. On one occasion she returned home and her Uncle beat her up badly and sent her back to her husband. Finally, she returned to her husband and went to the local shop and bought rat poison. She thought to herself, "At least let me die so I am buried here where my children can look at the grave of their mother, to know she existed." She drank the rat poison intending to commit suicide but was found in time and rushed to hospital. There she was told about MIFUMI the NGO that supports women and campaigns against bride price. MIFUMI intervened in her case and the husband was jailed on account of assault and cautioned not to demand any bride price as refund otherwise he would be re-arrested.
Nekesa went on to set up an independent business and was resettled by the help of MIFUMI. She became a Champion for women's rights and has set up her own group of women, fighting violence and child abuse in the community.
This case study raises many issues of harmful gender norms. Some of these are:
Bride price refund – even when a man mistreats you and chases you away, you are still expected to pay, to divorce your abuser.
Women are seen as the man's 'property' hence he equates beating a woman to beating his cows.
Women have no voice and no decision-making powers in the home. Hence Nekesa's mother was not allowed to speak on her behalf.
Male relatives have powers of the women-folk of the house, hence the Uncle could beat Nekesa and force her to return to her home.
Women have nowhere they can call their own. They have no place, no land or property because succession is through the males only.
Translating harmful norms to human rights language
MIFUMI translated these harmful practices into the language of human rights when it challenged the Constitutional Court on the legality of bride price. The main rights being violated included; the right to equality, the right to free consent of persons intending to marry or leave a marriage, equal rights when entering marriage, during marriage and at the dissolution of marriage, upholding the dignity of women and the right to be free from degrading treatment.
One of the challenges on consent were that the learned Justices of the Constitutional Court had erred in law when they failed to make a declaration that the demand for, and payment of, bride price fetters the free consent of persons intending to marry or leave a marriage; this is in violation of Article 31(3) of the Constitution, because the demand for bride price makes the consent of persons who intend to marry contingent upon the demands of a third party (the parents).
2. The role of NGOs and activists in challenging harmful gender norms
NGOs and charities start when someone or people perceive a need in their community. The founders of NGOs are also often in a position to do something about the perceived need through exposure to new ideas from other places, or through education or because they have the resources. The NGO becomes a bridge between the community and the outside world.
Sally Engle Merry, in her book, Human Rights and Gender Violence, (2003) articulates the important role that NGOs such as MIFUMI and local activists play in advancing women's rights. She writes:
The division between transnational elites and local actors is based less on culture and tradition than on tensions between a transnational community that envisions a unified modernity, and national and local actors for whom particular histories and contexts are important. Intermediaries such as NGOs and social movement activists play a critical role in interpreting the cultural world of transnational modernity for local claimants. They appropriate, translate, and remake transnational discourses into the vernacular. At the same time, they take local stories and frame them in national and international human rights language. Activist often participate in two cultural spheres at the same time, translating between them with a kind of double consciousness (Sally Engle Merry, 2006 in Human Rights and Gender Violence).
2b Challenging social structures and norms around gender equality
In international human rights, culture often refers to traditions and customs: ways of doing things that are justified by their roots in the past. A concern about traditional harmful practices and the role of culture in subordinating women is enshrined in the major documents concerning women's rights, such as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW).
The Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights (signed 2003, effective 2005), addresses and condemns harmful practices such as female genital mutilation. Although it is not specifically named, one can imply that Bride Price too is a harmful practice.
3. Context and Issues
Violence and abuse are still common and widespread in Uganda
The 2016 Demographic and Health survey reported that 1 in 5 women had experienced sexual violence in their lifetime compared to 1 in 8 men; also, that annually more than 13% of women. 15-49 (more than 1 million) reported experiencing sexual violence. Laws and policies exist but implementation is limited.
Most common today are spousal violence and child abuse.
§ Physical harm of women and children
§ Use of threats, intimidation, humiliation,
assaults,
§ Parental neglect
§ Defilement
§ Sexual exploitation of minors
§ Sexual harassment of women in public spaces
§ Land rights violations- grabbing, deprivation of access and use
Poverty and COVID-19 makes it harder for survivors to exercise choices
Below are some of the main ways that harmful norms and practices are promulgated:
Commodification of women and girls (bride price and polygamy)
Violence against women and harmful norms like bride price and polygamy commodifies women and girls so that they are not seen as human beings deserving respect but as commodities with the attendant mistreatment and denial of human and legal rights, particularly land and property rights, and issues affecting children (Child sexual abuse and exploitation, child neglect, refusal to pay maintenance, removal from school, child marriage, etc.).
Blame the survivor (you must have done something to cause this?)
The culture of blaming the survivor is very common. When a woman reports abuse, the first question she is often asked is: 'What did you do?'. The message implicit in this attitude is that it is the women who do wrong, and deserve to be beaten. It is very important for women to recognize the falsehood in this. That is why a key feminist principle is that "No woman deserves to be beaten." The message must be made clear that domestic violence is a crime, even if it is "just a slap'.
Women who challenge discrimination and domination by men often suffer a backlash from the community. This is aimed at controlling women's actions. Women who report intimate partner violence may suffer stigma and shame and can be ostracised from the community.
Men's authority to "discipline" the wife
Violence Against Women (VAW) is still seen as acceptable and a normal aspect of the relationship between men and women. The 2016 Demographic and Health survey reported that 6 in 10 women (58%) and 4 in 10 men (44%) believed that wife beating is justified for one or more reasons. Myths are used to sustain violence against women. For example, the myth that a man beats you because he loves you is a myth used to justify domestic violence. Furthermore, negative stereotypes, such as 'she wears the trousers in the home' are used to criticise women who try to assert their independence.
Social settlement of cases without accountability is widely practiced
Violence against women is not easily defined as a human rights violation because many forms of domestic violence and sexual assault are perpetrated by private citizens rather than by state actors. Because domestic violence occurs behind closed doors, it was seen as being outside the realm of the state. For a long time, it was seen as a private matter and dismissed by the Police and authorities as "a domestic affair" which should be solved at home. Women were relegated to self-help while police often colluded with the perpetrators. Many women were left at the mercy of abusive partners until the feminist movement stepped in and carried out a campaign to get the message out that the 'the private is public.' This means that what happens in the privacy of the home, is sanctioned by the State through lack of laws and political will to end violence against women.
Unfortunately, the attitude that women are not equipped with the same human right as men, has sadly persisted and that is why cases are settled informally outside the judicial system.
Marriage as the main or only goal for women and girls
The reason why women are encouraged to aspire to marriage is the control that men hold over women's bodies. Women are expected to be under the care and authority of a male person who can be the father or husband. In the past, and in certain cases in modernity, women are relegated to the care of a male relative (the 'father figure') in the absence of a father or husband. The control of women's bodies is closely linked to women being viewed as property, that can be "exchanged" or "transferred" from one male to another.
Physical punishment of children is normalized
We live in a patriarchal society which thrives on oppression manifested through violence. The patriarchal system contains a hierarchy of oppression where women and children occupy lesser positions. Children are seen as belonging to the parents. Girls especially, are seen as property rather than as children with rights. Children are not seen as individuals in their own rights and violence is meted out to them with legitimation, such as physical punishment by parents and corporal punishment in schools.
MIFUMI continues to relay the message to parents of the common responsibility of men and women in the upbringing and development of their children and that the interest of the children is the primordial consideration. Children are a responsibility of the state and that parents have the responsibility and privilege of bringing them up. If we are to work towards a peaceful world, we must avoid having children reared on violence, because they will only go on to be abusive themselves. Children need the example from grown-ups and need to be taught that violence is not a justifiable form of conflict resolution. Through its work with schools, MIFUMI trains young boys and girls to work towards healthy relationships, free from violence and abuse.
Backlash-targeted at organization and Women Rights Champions in the form of misleading false claims and propaganda
Women's Activists, rights workers and human rights organisations face backlash and persecution when they bring forward claims of violence against women and women's rights abuses. MIFUMI, for example is accused of "breaking up families" and "causing the violence" in homes. It was accused of "teaching women bad behavior and making them stubborn and disobedient."

Q: Make sure a forEach with async calls is executed before another one? I have a function with multiple forEach loops:
async insertKpbDocument(jsonFile) {
    jsonFile.doc.annotations.forEach((annotation) => {
      annotation.entities.forEach(async (entity) => {
        await this.addVertex(entity);
      });
      annotation.relations.forEach(async (relation) => {
        await this.addRelation(relation);
      });
    });
    return jsonFile;
  }

I need to make sure that the async code in the forEach loop calling the this.addVertex function is really done before executing the next one.
But when I log variables, It seems that the this.addRelation function is called before the first loop is really over.
So I tried adding await terms before every loops like so :
await jsonFile.doc.annotations.forEach(async (annotation) => {
      await annotation.entities.forEach(async (entity) => {
        await this.addVertex(entity);
      });
      await annotation.relations.forEach(async (relation) => {
        await this.addRelation(relation);
      });
    });

But same behavior.
Maybe it is the log function that have a latency? Any ideas?

A: As we've discussed, await does not pause a .forEach() loop and does not make the 2nd item of the iteration wait for the first item to be processed.  So, if you're really trying to do asynchronous sequencing of items, you can't really accomplish it with a .forEach() loop.
For this type of problem, async/await works really well with a plain for loop because they do pause the execution of the actual for statement to give you sequencing of asynchronous operations which it appears is what you want.  Plus, it even works with nested for loops because they are all in the same function scope:
To show you how much simpler this can be using for/of and await, it could be done like this:
async insertKpbDocument(jsonFile) {
    for (let annotation of jsonFile.doc.annotations) {
        for (let entity of annotation.entities) {
            await this.addVertex(entity);
        }
        for (let relation of annotation.relations) {
            await this.addRelation(relation);
        }
    }
    return jsonFile;
}

You get to write synchronous-like code that is actually sequencing asynchronous operations.

If you are really avoiding any for loop, and your real requirement is only that all calls to addVertex() come before any calls to addRelation(), then you can do this where you use .map() instead of .forEach() and you collect an array of promises that you then use Promise.all() to wait on the whole array of promises:
insertKpbDocument(jsonFile) {
    return Promise.all(jsonFile.doc.annotations.map(async annotation => {
        await Promise.all(annotation.entities.map(entity => this.addVertex(entity)));
        await Promise.all(annotation.relations.map(relation => this.addRelation(relation)));
    })).then(() => jsonFile);
}

To fully understand how this works, this runs all addVertex() calls in parallel for one annotation, waits for them all to finish, then runs all the addRelation() calls in parallel for one annotation, then waits for them all to finish.  It runs all the annotations themselves in parallel.  So, this isn't very much actual sequencing except within an annotation, but you accepted an answer that has this same sequencing and said it works so I show a little simpler version of this for completeness.

If you really need to sequence each individual addVertex() call so you don't call the next one until the previous one is done and you're still not going to use a for loop, then you can use the .reduce() promise pattern put into a helper function to manually sequence asynchronous access to an array:
// helper function to sequence asynchronous iteration of an array
// fn returns a promise and is passed an array item as an argument
function sequence(array, fn) {
    return array.reduce((p, item) => {
        return p.then(() => {
            return fn(item);
        });
    }, Promise.resolve());
}

insertKpbDocument(jsonFile) {
    return sequence(jsonFile.doc.annotations, async (annotation) => {
        await sequence(annotation.entities, entity => this.addVertex(entity));
        await sequence(annotation.relations, relation => this.addRelation(relation));
    }).then(() => jsonFile);
}

This will completely sequence everything.  It will do this type of order:
addVertex(annotation1)
addRelation(relation1);
addVertex(annotation2)
addRelation(relation2);
....
addVertex(annotationN);
addRelation(relationN);

where it waits for each operation to finish before going onto the next one.

A: foreach will return void so awaiting it will not do much. You can use map to return all the promises you create now in the forEach, and use Promise.all to await all:
async insertKpbDocument(jsonFile: { doc: { annotations: Array<{ entities: Array<{}>, relations: Array<{}> }> } }) {
    await Promise.all(jsonFile.doc.annotations.map(async(annotation) => {
        await Promise.all(annotation.entities.map(async (entity) => {
            await this.addVertex(entity);
        }));
        await Promise.all(annotation.relations.map(async (relation) => {
            await this.addRelation(relation);
        }));
    }));
    return jsonFile;
}

A: I understand you can run all the addVertex concurrently. Combining reduce with map splitted into two different set of promises you can do it. My idea:
const first = jsonFile.doc.annotations.reduce((acc, annotation) => {
  acc = acc.concat(annotation.entities.map(this.addVertex));

  return acc;
}, []);

await Promise.all(first);

const second = jsonFile.doc.annotations.reduce((acc, annotation) => {
  acc = acc.concat(annotation.relations.map(this.addRelation));

  return acc;
}, []);

await Promise.all(second);

You have more loops, but it does what you need I think

A: async/await does not within forEach.
A simple solution: Replace .forEach() with for(.. of ..) instead.
Details in this similar question.
If no-iterator linting rule is enabled, you will get a linting warning/error for using for(.. of ..). There are lots of discussion/opinions on this topic.
IMHO, this is a scenario where we can suppress the warning with eslint-disable-next-line or for the method/class.
Example:
const insertKpbDocument = async (jsonFile) => {
  // eslint-disable-next-line no-iterator
  for (let entity of annotation.entities) {
    await this.addVertex(entity)
  }
  // eslint-disable-next-line no-iterator
  for (let relation of annotation.relations) {
    await this.addRelation(relation)
  }
  return jsonFile
}

The code is very readable and works as expected. To get similar functionality with .forEach(), we need some promises/observables acrobatics that i think is a waste of effort.

A: forEach executes the callback against each element in the array and does not wait for anything. Using await is basically sugar for writing promise.then() and nesting everything that follows in the then() callback. But forEach doesn't return a promise, so await arr.forEach() is meaningless. The only reason it isn't a compile error is because the async/await spec says you can await anything, and if it isn't a promise you just get its value... forEach just gives you void.
If you want something to happen in sequence you can await in a for loop:
for (let i = 0; i < jsonFile.doc.annotations.length; i++) {
  const annotation = jsonFile.doc.annotations[i];
  for (let j = 0; j < annotation.entities.length; j++) {
    const entity = annotation.entities[j];
    await this.addVertex(entity);
  });
  // code here executes after all vertix have been added in order

Edit: While typing this a couple other answers and comments happened... you don't want to use a for loop, you can use Promise.all but there's still maybe some confusion, so I'll leave the above explanation in case it helps.

The design of the new Consulate in Hyderabad, India skillfully balances the functional needs of space, security, sustainability, energy efficiencies, and aesthetics creating a landmark iconic building; it serves as an expression of the local identity, reflective of the country's rich history and culture. The building acknowledges its context, surroundings, and responds to the unique features of the site, and climate. This project employed the fundamental principles of design excellence; it is representative of the best of American Architecture and Government.
Gandhi led India to colonial independence through his simple approach to teaching and encouraging the Indian people to spin and weave their own cotton products, short-circuiting the exportation of wealth from the country. The spinning wheel of the weaver is universally recognized as a symbol of independence. This scheme borrows from this concept of intertwining disparate functional elements into a cohesive whole. The functional "strands" of the building program are brought together in a continuous element that links the high side of the site to the low side at the base of the bowl.
The Strand concept links the main entry at the high side of the site to the service entry at the low side by weaving a linear building between significant rock outcroppings. The site organization clearly separates the public and service sides via the main consular building. The northeast façade curves to create a receptive gesture to both the main views to the site and the internal consular garden. Additionally, this organization provides a protective edge from westerly monsoonal storms and focuses the view to the native boulder formations as well as the adjoining open space. This high-performance building integrates many sustainable design strategies; it is designed to meet or exceed LEED Silver Certification.

Watch out, Samsung and Apple. There's a new, sexy handset in town, and it's from an unusual suspect. Huawei's latest flagship, the P8 (499 Euros, about $530), is the supermodel of smartphones. Its premium aluminum-and-glass unibody design is enticing, and its gorgeous full-HD display will have you glued to the screen. Plus, the 13-megapixel camera boasts an impressive array of features. The P8's interface is anything but stock Android, but overall, this is a phone that grabs — and keeps — your attention.
Editor's Note: We tested the international version of the Huawei P8, using a T-Mobile SIM card. The handset also supports AT&T's network in the United States.
I'm pretty sure I annoyed all my friends by incessantly gushing about how sleek the Huawei P8 is, but everyone agreed. If the Galaxy S6 Edge is the curvy Tyra Banks of the smartphone world, then the skinny, minimalistic P8 is Heidi Klum.
Huawei says it was inspired by the design of leatherbound handcrafted book binding, but really it looks more like the company took a page out of Apple's book. With its gold, metallic back embellished with a slim, white stripe near the top and bottom that spills over to the sides, the P8 looks like a sharp, rectangular iPhone 6 Plus. My unit was Champagne Gold, but the P8 is also available in black.
(Image credit: Jeremy Lips / Tom's Guide)
Framing the handset's 5.2-inch display is a white bezel that's superthin on the long sides but almost an inch wide on the top and bottom. Above the screen sits an 8-megapixel camera and LED indicator light.

Along the right edge sit nano SIM and micro SD/SIM slots, as well as the power and volume buttons. I like that the power button is a small square, which makes it easy to distinguish by touch. The bottom side houses the micro USB port and dual speakers, while the top has a 3.5-mm audio jack.
Measuring a mere 0.25 inches thin, the Huawei P8 is slimmer than the LG G4 (0.24 to 0.39 inches), and the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the iPhone 6, both of which are 0.27 inches thick. The 5-ounce Huawei P8 is heavier than the Galaxy S6 (4.9 ounces) and the iPhone 6 (4.5 ounces), but lighter than the LG G4 (5.5 ounces).
Talk about eye candy. Every time I was greeted by one of the beautiful wallpapers on the P8's lock screen, it was like a sumptuous treat for my peepers. The Huawei P8's 5.2-inch 1920 x 1080 display is so striking that some of my colleagues had a hard time believing it was not a quad-HD display.
I enjoyed the rich, vibrant reds in scenes of nighttime traffic in a 1080p trailer for Police Story, and the clarity of Jackie Chan's frown lines as he looked up at his captor. Viewing angles were generous, as image quality did not degrade as I tilted the phone at extreme angles.
Registering a fairly strong 425 nits on our light meter, the P8 is brighter than the LG G4 (396 nits) and the average smartphone (382 nits), but dimmer than the Galaxy S6 (521 nits) and the iPhone 6 (537 nits).
Based on our colorimeter readings, the P8 is capable of reproducing 124.2 percent of the sRGB color gamut. This means it can display more colors than the average smartphone (115.8 percent), the LG G4 (109.8 percent) and the iPhone 6 (95 percent). It's not quite as colorful as the Galaxy S6, though, which notched 159 percent.
Although I sometimes felt the P8's display was a tad too saturated for my liking, its Delta-E rating of 2.2 showed that it's pretty accurate. That showing beat the average smartphone (4.11), the LG G4 (3.4), Galaxy S6 (4.7) and the iPhone 6 (3.0). Numbers closer to 0 are better.
Thanks to the P8's booming speakers, I enjoyed rocking out to Something Bad by Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood, which was loud enough to be heard everywhere in a small studio apartment. Lambert's and Underwood's voices clashed with the drums and instruments in the background of the music, though.

Software and Interface
Running Huawei's Emotion UI (EMUI) 3.1 over Android Lollipop, the P8 offers a ton of customizations that are generally thoughtful and useful, but Android purists may balk at the stark differences.
It took me a while to figure out where apps such as Gallery and Browser were, since Huawei's custom icons for them were so different from a regular Android's.
But Google's services, such as Gmail and Chrome, are still available; they're just in an inconspicuous folder on the home page. You'll have to rearrange some apps to put these apps front and center.
Once you get used to the skin, which looks modern and sophisticated, you'll find EMUI has plenty to offer. The lock screen offers direct access to the camera with a swipe up, and displays your notifications on top of a beautiful backdrop (one of Huawei's stunning preloaded pictures). Dragging up from the lock screen pulls up a drawer with shortcuts to functions such as music playback, sharing, screenshot, settings, calculator and flashlight.
If you get sick of the customized Huawei icons for apps such as Gallery, Videos, Email, Calendar, Contacts and Browser, you can choose different sets of predefined icons by customizing your Theme.
Huawei also removed the apps drawer, instead placing all your apps on the home screens, a la iOS. This made it easier for me to organize my favorite apps without having to go into a separate screen.
I really like that notifications — in the panel that slides down from the top — come with actions such as Archive and Reply (for messages) or Like and Comment (for Facebook). This made it easy to quickly respond to my friends.
The P8 also alerts you when a background app is consuming more power than normal and will give you the option to shut it down from the notifications drawer.
Armed with a 2.0-GHz octa-core Huawei Kirin 930 CPU with 3GB of RAM, the P8 is plenty zippy. I smoothly played a round of Dessert Making (a hidden-object game) while two video downloads and Netflix were running in the background. Sometimes, however, I noticed some lag while trying to open an app from the open apps screen.
On synthetic tests, the P8 delivered above-average performance, but often lagged behind its competitors.
Scoring 3,334 on general-performance benchmark Geekbench 3, the Huawei P8 fared better than the average smartphone (2,344) and the Apple A8-powered iPhone 6 (2,931). However, it trailed the Snapdragon 808-backed LG G4 (3,493) and the blazing octa-core Samsung Exynos-enabled Galaxy S6 (5,120).
It took the Huawei P8 4 minutes and 31 seconds to transcode a 204MB video from 720p to 480p. That's faster than the average smartphone (6:42), but slower than the LG G4 (4:13) and the Galaxy S6 (2:35).
With a 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited result of 11,544, the P8's graphics performance is poorer than the average smartphone (14,664), the LG G4 (18,510), the iPhone 6 (16,558) and the beastly Galaxy S6 (21,193).
Camera Performance
Huawei says it squeezed a DSLR-level image signal processor (ISP) and a four-color RGBW (red, green, blue, white) sensor into the P8's camera for better pictures, and the results are impressive.

The P8's pictures were nearly as good as those taken by our current favorite smartphone camera, the Galaxy S6.
Pictures of a Transformers Autobot logo taken with both devices were similarly sharp, but the Huawei's shot was slightly more green overall, while the S6 had a more accurate color and better contrast.
Left: Huawei P8 Right: Galaxy S6
In low light, the P8 continued to impress. My pictures of Central Park at dusk showed fine detail, such as windows on faraway buildings, and green trees and blue sky looked true.
MORE: The Best Smartphone Cameras
The P8's 8-MP front cam shoots bright, sharp selfies, accurately recording my blue eye shadow and individual strands of hair.
Left: No Beauty Level. Center: Beauty Level 5. Right: Beauty Level 10 (max)
At the bottom of the viewfinder in selfie mode is a slider for Beauty Level, letting you toggle the intensity of the built-in effects to smoothen your skin. In general, I found that Beauty Level needs to be set at 4 before you start to see any effect.
My 1080p video of two friends playing Frisbee stuttered a little as I panned to follow the flying disc around, but image quality was clear overall.
Camera Special Features
If the P8 was locked, I like that you can take a picture by double pressing the volume-down button. Huawei also added a Super Night Mode to the P8 that leaves the shutter open longer and reduces noise (grain) for better images in darkness. You're advised to use a tripod or steady your phone against a stationary object for a clearer picture, because of the long shutter speed. In this mode, anything that moves when you're recording will result in a blur.
During my testing, almost none of my Super Night Mode shots came out clear, often because I didn't have a tripod and my hands weren't steady enough, such as in a dark piano bar on Saturday night.
Left: Regular mode. Right: Super Night Mode
Even when I steadied my hands and stayed as still as I could, the resulting picture of the nighttime Manhattan skyline was blurry, although it did show a great deal more detail.
Super Night Mode also isn't ideal for shooting a moving subject, since all you'll see is a streak instead of your subject. But if you are shooting buildings or stationary objects in the dark, it could be useful.
Using the same idea of long shutter exposure, Huawei added what it calls a Light Painting feature to let you capture light trails in low light. This mode offers four settings: Tail Light Trails, Light Graffiti, Silky Water and Star Track. The last mode is ideal if you're out camping in the wilderness and have an unfettered view of the night sky.
I used Tail Light Trails mode to capture passing traffic in Manhattan, and was entranced by the moving streaks that appeared on the screen as cars passed. Surrounding lights were captured as well though, making for a chaotic picture.
Real-world results
In general, Light Painting is only practical if you have a tripod and someone who is holding a light source and is ready to move it in the way you want. It's fun and novel, but most everyday photographers aren't likely to have much use for this feature.
The Perfect Selfie tool uses facial recognition to detect your mug and enhance it to preset preferences. This is different from Beauty Level, which is just a general fix for all faces in a picture.
For example, you can set exactly how smooth and light you want your skin to look, as well as how big and bright your eyes should be, and how slim you would like your face to appear. Once that's specified and Perfect Selfie is activated, the P8 will automatically edit your face to look like that in every selfie or wefie (group selfie) you take.
I adjusted my face to look somewhat alienlike in Perfect Selfie, and forgot all about it until later that evening when I took a selfie with my roommate. She looked normal and had some enhancements, thanks to Beauty Level, but my face shocked me with the bug eyes that I had set it to create.
Left: Perfect Selfie setting. Right: Group selfie with Perfect Selfie on
Of course, if you have the settings on at a more subtle level, Perfect Selfie could help make each portrait look very flattering.
The camera app also has plenty of controls for the power user, including manual settings for ISO light sensitivity, white balance, saturation, exposure compensation, brightness and contrast. You can also set the camera to take photos with a voice command (either when you say "cheese" or when your voice reaches a preset decibel level) or to trigger the shutter when it detects a smile.
Huawei packed quite a lot of apps into the P8, most of which are helpful. In addition to utilities such as Files and Phone Manager (which lets you see your security and system settings at a glance), there is the usual assortment of Google apps, including Chrome, Gmail, Drive, Play Store and YouTube.
The P8 comes with a new Director Mode app that lets you shoot and edit videos from up to four different Android devices at once. I installed the Director Mode app on an Alcatel Onetouch Idol 3 and a Samsung Galaxy S6, and connected all three via Wi-Fi Direct.
I then started recording a multiangle video that pulled feeds from all three cameras. While recording, I easily switched from camera to camera by tapping the preview of each device's footage at the bottom of the screen. Each phone would be notified when it was selected as the active shooter.
After I was done, I could trim the footage and add music and titles, but that was it. For more editing options, such as adding transitions, filters or effects, you'll have to transfer your video to another app, such as CyberLink's PowerDirector or Magisto.
While Director Mode worked seamlessly and well, this feature is likely only useful to aspiring Steven Spielbergs or at special occasions where you can get more than two friends with Android devices to help. The eventual video would be saved just to the Huawei, which is doing and controlling the recording.
The Huawei P8's 2,680-mAh battery won't last you all through the workday, but it gets close.
Enduring 7 hours and 44 minutes on our battery test (continuous Web surfing at 150 nits of brightness over 4G on T-Mobile's network), the P8 has a shorter runtime than the average smartphone (8:27) and the Galaxy S6 (8:32), but outlasted the iPhone 6 (7:40) and the LG G4 (7:38).

We reviewed the international version of the Huawei P8, which is compatible with AT&T and T-Mobile's networks. It's available globally for 499 English pounds unlocked (approximately $566) for the 16GB version and 599 pounds (approximately $680) for the 64GB version. Depending on the retailer, you might be able to get it in the United States at a premium. For instance, the P8 starts at $768 on Amazon, but $499 on OppoMart.
If you have the patience, Huawei says it is bringing a variant of the P8 to the United States in May, but price and availability have not been announced. We expect that model to have some hardware differences from the international version, and will update this review with the changes.
From its beautiful design to its sumptuous display, the Huawei P8 is a real feast for your eyes. Its handsomeness is matched by a very capable camera. It's also about $100 less than the Samsung Galaxy S6 ($600 to $685 unlocked on major carriers). The P8 isn't the fastest phone in its class, and its interface is far from pure Android, but its design, display and photography prowess make it one of the best Android phones of 2015.

Elisabeth Röhm To Star, Direct 'Nurturing Healing Love' TV Movie Based On Memoir For 04 Entertainment
EXCLUSIVE: 04 Entertainment has acquired the rights to Nurturing Healing Love: A Mother's Journey Of Hope and Forgiveness, a memoir by Scarlett Lewis, inspired by the loss of Lewis' son in the Sandy Hook massacre, for development as a television movie. Law & Order alumna Elisabeth Röhm is attached to star, direct and executive produce.
Per producers, Nurturing Healing Love is inspired by the horrific loss of Lewis' son, Jesse following an act of unimaginable violence at the Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012. Lewis experienced something that no parent should ever have to endure on a day that started just like any other. When a gunman opened fire at Sandy Hook Elementary School, Scarlett's life changed forever. However, this isn't a story about a massacre. It's a story about love and survival. It's about how to face the impossible, how to find courage when you think you have none, and how to choose love, instead of anger, fear, or hatred.
Following Jesse's death, Scarlett went on an unexpected journey, inspired by a simple three-word message he had scrawled on their kitchen chalkboard shortly before he died: Norurting Helin Love (Nurturing Healing Love). It was as if he knew just what his family would need in order to go on after this horrible tragedy. Even more incredible, when Adam Lanza entered Jesse's classroom, his gun jammed and as he was adjusting it, Jesse shouted to his classmates to run. Nine did and survived.
Bolstered by Jesse's words and actions on the day of the massacre, Scarlett took her first step toward a new life. And with each step, it became clearer how true Jesse's message was. She learned that love was indeed the essential element necessary to move forward and that taking the path of love is a choice. We can live in anger and resentment, or we can choose love and forgiveness.
"I'm very excited about this partnership and even more elated to spread my beloved son's message of courage" Lewis said. "We all have the capacity for the courage Jesse showed on that day. It's the courage to be kind and gentle, to do the right thing, to forgive, to step outside of our own pain. That's the courage to choose love."
Röhm will executive produce with Matt Luber, Liat Gerszt of Silvergale Productions and Colet Abedi, Jasmine Abedi and Brian Zargorski of 04 Entertainment.
Röhm is also making her directorial debut with Girl In The Basement, a film inspired by actual events of a young woman imprisoned in her family home, starring Stefanie Scott, Judd Nelson and Joely Fisher. Rohm is repped by Buchwald and manager Matt Luber.
04 Entertainment's current development slate includes feature Dying To Be Me by Anita Moorjani with Mark Holder and Christine Holder of Wonder Street and Gerszt, a scripted and unscripted series centered on the West Point military academy; a feature film based on K.A. Tucker's bestselling YA series One Tiny Lie; a documentary with legendary chef Marco Pierre White, a paranormal series written by Ari Schlossberg (Hide and Seek, Harpers Island); and film, The Royals Next Door with bestselling author Karina Halle.

CKRB-FM (Cool FM 103,5) is a French-language Canadian radio station located in Saint-Georges, Quebec.

Owned and operated by Radio Beauce, a subsidiary of Groupe Radio Simard, it broadcasts on 103.5 MHz with an effective radiated power of 17,000 watts (class B) using an omnidirectional antenna.

History

CKRB went on the air on July 22, 1952  as an AM station broadcasting on 1400 kHz; at the time the station only had a power of 250 watts. In 1959, CKRB moved to 1250 kHz with 5,000 watts. In 1965, CKRB would later move to 1460 kHz and increase its power to 10,000 watts (daytime) and 5,000 watts (nighttime). By 1985, CKRB had converted its transmitter to AM stereo.  The station moved to the FM band at 103.3 MHz on March 29, 1999.

In 2005, the station was authorized by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to change CKRB-FM's frequency from 103.3 MHz to 103.5 MHz and increase its power to 17,000 watts as a class B station. It moved to 103.5 in January 2009.

The station has an adult contemporary format and identifies itself as Cool FM 103,5.

SoVaNow.com / January 14, 2021
A South Boston man was convicted Tuesday in Halifax County Circuit Court of 11 counts of possession of child pornography, crimes that could bring a maximum sentence of 105 years in prison.
Jerry Remines, a resident of Merritt Hills in South Boston, was found guilty Tuesday by Circuit Judge Kimberley S. White after she heard evidence presented at Remines' bench trial. After issuing the verdict, White ordered a presentence investigation and a psychosexual evaluation in preparation for a sentencing hearing, which will be held at a later time. While he awaits his sentence, Remines will remain behind bars at the Halifax County Adult Detention Center.
Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney Anna Bowen tried the case with Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney William Hamilton. After the trial, Bowen hailed the verdict, which she said would bring justice for every child who was victimized by the production of child pornography that the evidence showed Remines had accessed on his personal devices.
"Remines' crimes were an appalling revictimization of every child that was being exploited at the time these images were created. Thanks to the hard work of the South Boston Police Department and the Virginia State Police, Mr. Remines was brought to justice," said Bowen, who specializes in prosecuting crimes against juveniles.
During the trial, the Commonwealth presented evidence that between August and October 2019, Remines repeatedly accessed child pornography on his cellular phone. Testimony by Special Agents Travis Barr and James Trogdon of the High Tech Crimes Division of the Virginia State Police showed that Remines had used various applications on his cell phone to access images, and that he had knowingly possessed child pornography on multiple occasions.
The Commonwealth presented approximately 100 images of child pornography accessed by the defendant, including images of apparent sexual torture of children. The prosecution also presented evidence of Remines' participation in online chat groups in which he acknowledged that he was "sick" and was seeking "perverted" pornography, and in which he asked to be added to "taboo" or "young" chat groups.
In pronouncing her verdict, White noted the images in evidence were exceedingly violent and disturbing. She also rejected defense claims that police did not adequately secure the photos and video found on Remines' cell phone, raising the possibility of tampering and the planting of evidence against Remines.
Prior to his trial for possession of child pornography, Remines had pleaded guilty to six misdemeanor counts of computer trespass. As revealed in a pre-trial hearing, Remines came to the attention of South Boston Police when a town officer turned to Remines to repair his broken cell phone. Remines was operating an electronics repair business out of his Merritt Hill home when that initial encounter with authorities began.
After the discovery that Remines had taken data from the officer's phone without his permission, police determined that Remines would examine customers' phones and then transfer private pictures or videos from to his own phone or computer. It was when he drew attention for trespass of the officer's phone that further information surfaced, leading to the search warrant that uncovered the child pornography.
Remines also pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of nonconsensual filming of a nude person. Remines recorded a young woman without permission while she was visiting his home in his bathroom. The victim was filmed in a state of undress when she disrobed to take a shower.
Remines received an active sentence of one year and four months for the six misdemeanor trespass offenses. Remines will be sentenced on the remaining count of computer trespass at the same time as his sentencing on the 11 charges of possession of child pornography.

The Arras style is one of the most popular choices for many who are seeking something special to adorn their gardens and patios, with a very flexible 'outside-in' style meaning the furniture can work just as well inside the home as outside and lends itself well to a variety of environments. An interior designer we work with, Daphne Dunn of London-based Daphne Dunn Interiors, likes the style because it's very well made and makes a strong visual impact. She feels it's not too feminine looking, unlike other 19th century French garden furniture, therefore it appeals to clients of hers who like a decorative look but with clean lines.
Arras furniture first emerged around 1840 when one of three companies manufacturing metal products in the town of Arras, Grassin-Baledans, began to specialise in garden furniture and started producing artistic ironwork. With welding not used at the time, all authentic Arras pieces are entirely hand forged and riveted, using 'fer elegi' and 'fer plane' or, metal tubing and flat metal. The furniture was intended for the high-end market at a time when the privileged classes were discovering the benefits of outdoor living, and the pieces, which later included all types of garden accessories, were made to the highest quality and durability.
This, coupled with their striking and distinctive appearance, made Arras incredibly fashionable and they adorned parks and public spaces throughout France during the late 19th and early 20th century. It is these very qualities which make it so collectable today, along with the charming effect of the patina formed by the many layers of paint, which would have been lovingly applied to the bare metal over the years, essentially giving beautiful pieces their own unique heritage.
Collectors trying to date a piece of Arras must, rather interestingly, look at the feet. Originally embellished with lion paws, after 1900 this changed to horse hooves, primarily to reduce production costs, but incidentally giving a smoother and sleeker design that is often more desirable. If you are looking for a specific style of Arras furniture then do contact me, I would be happy to see how we can help you find that perfect piece for your space.

Telstra Launches Iphone…

Бокх I (на гръцки Βοκχος, Bochos) е цар на Мавретания от 110 пр.н.е. до 80 пр.н.е. Той е тъст на Югурта, с който води война срещу Рим. През 106 пр.н.е. Бокх предава Югурта на римляните.

По времето на Югуртинската война (111 – 105 пр.н.е.) през 108 пр.н.е. той се колебае коя страна да вземе на Югурта или на римляните. В крайна сметка се съюзява със зет си след обещание да получи част от царството му. Двамата царе претърпяват две поражения. След разговор със Сула, който по това време е квестор на Гай Марий – Бокх се съгласява да предаде Югурта на римляните. След този предателски акт, част от Нумидия е присъединена към царството му. За да спечели благоразположението на римляните и особено на Сула, изпраща в Рим статуя от злато изобразяваща предаването на Югурта на Сула.

Бокх I е баща на Бокх II и Богуд, които наследяват царството от баща си и го разделят помежду си. Впоследствие Бокх II присвоява половината на брат си и управлява сам. След смъртта на Бокх II през 33 пр.н.е. цяла Мавритания става римска провинция.

NDHSAA Administrative Assistant Sue Carlsrud receives NFHS Citation
VALLEY CITY, N.D. – Sue Carlsrud, an Administrative Assistant at the North Dakota High School Activities Association, was among 12 individuals to receive an National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Citation on Monday, July 1 in Indianapolis during the 100th annual NFHS Summer Meeting held at the JW Marriott.
An award designed to honor individuals who have made contributions to the NFHS, state high school associations, athletic director and coaching professions, the officiating avocation and fine arts/performing arts programs, the NFHS Citation is one of the most highly regarded achievements in high school athletics and performing arts.
Carlsrud began working at the NDHSAA on June 6, 1976. Her first duties at the NDHSAA were in the association's Accident Benefit Department processing insurance claims submitted by member schools.
Her duties at the NDHSAA gradually changed shifting to an administrative assistant role in the office plus additional responsibilities working with swimming and diving as well as track and field. Before the days of Microsoft Excel Spreadsheets and HyTek Meet Manager Software programs, Carlsrud was tasked with organizing state meet qualifiers for swimming and diving as well as track and field. To this day, Carlsrud's "behind the scenes" work in both sports continues to make state meets run smoothly. The same can be said for Carlsrud's work within the NDHSAA office.
Carlsrud compiles and edits the NDHSAA Yearbook. She also tracks membership dues and participation fees for the NDHSAA. Her standout contributions to North Dakota high school activities were recognized in 2001 when she received the NDHSAA Distinguished Service Award.
Carlsrud's tenure at the NDHSAA has spanned five Executive Directors (Frank Smith, Bruce Anderson, Bob King, Sherm Sylling and current Executive Director Matt Fetsch).
Outside of her work at the NDHSAA, Carlsrud is an active member of the Valley City Optimist Club and belongs to Our Saviors Lutheran Church in Valley City. She is married to Dave Carlsrud, a former Assistant Director at the NDHSAA.
Carlsrud's 43-year career at the NDHSAA will come to a close later this year when she retires from her post.

It's Our "Freedom" They Hate — US Coalition Air Strikes Kill 77 Civilians, Including Children
Matt Agorist July 19, 2016
On Monday, airstrikes, believed to be led by US coalition forces, killed 21 innocent civilians in Manbij's northern Hazawneh quarter in Syria, according to the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. On Tuesday, additional strikes in the region killed 56 more, including multiple children, according to Reuters.
Prior to the strikes on Tuesday, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights noted that more than 100 civilians have been killed in Manbij in only a short time — nearly half of them children.
The deaths of these innocent men, women, and children will, and likely already have been, written off as collateral damage in the war on terror.
The US military will claim that Islamic militants hide among the population to deliberately cause civilian casualties during coalition strikes. However, they conveniently ignore the fact that it is coalition bombs killing the civilians.
Prior to the assault on Syria from the west, Syria had vibrant, bustling marketplaces in the old cities of Damascus and Aleppo. The country boasted its own innovative IT industry despite economic sanctions imposed by the west.
Terror attacks were all but non-existent and the people certainly never feared bombs falling from the sky. However, all that changed after the ambitions of the military industrial complex became reality.
In depressing irony, the west continues to fail to realize the cause of terrorism. Americans, especially, continue to buy into the notion that the terrorists hate our freedom.
The mainstream media and politicians alike fail to ever mention blowback as the real cause of terrorism.
As Americans cower in fear over the perceived threat from men, women, and children attempting to escape ISIS from war-torn Syria, the majority of people are ignoring the reason there are refugees in the first place.
The US created and funded the terrorist regime in Syria that would be used to destabilize the region and create a specific advantage for American interests over China and Russia.
Prior to 2012, ISIS, as we know them, did not exist. So how did this unknown group of psychopathic killers gain such notoriety so quickly?
Leaked Pentagon documents and News Anchor Ben Swann from WGCL Atlanta, explain exactly what happened.
A plan to create and arm an active resistance to the Assad regime was put in place four years ago, and the result was a radical group of jihadists who, in turn, morphed into ISIS, all thanks to the United States.
These leaked Pentagon documents are not the only evidence that the United States created and aided ISIS either. Just last year, renowned journalist Seymor Hersh interviewed members of the DoD who confirmed the establishment knew about the monster they were creating but chose to conveniently ignore it. According to the report:
Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, director of the DIA between 2012 and 2014, confirmed that his agency had sent a constant stream of classified warnings to the civilian leadership about the dire consequences of toppling Assad. The jihadists, he said, were in control of the opposition. Turkey wasn't doing enough to stop the smuggling of foreign fighters and weapons across the border. 'If the American public saw the intelligence we were producing daily, at the most sensitive level, they would go ballistic,' Flynn told me. 'We understood Isis's long-term strategy and its campaign plans, and we also discussed the fact that Turkey was looking the other way when it came to the growth of the Islamic State inside Syria.' The DIA's reporting, he said, 'got enormous pushback' from the Obama administration. 'I felt that they did not want to hear the truth.'
But that's not all. When Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter testified in a hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee in December concerning the U.S. strategy for fighting ISIL, his inept attempt to keep knowledge of the ISIS oil convoy under wraps backfired in a most comical way. John McCain addressed the Defense Secretary in a state of facetious disbelief about the US-allowed and Turkish-protected oil routes from which ISIS earned a large portion of their funding:
"Secretary, you may want to correct the record. We all knew those fuel trucks were moving back and forth. We've seen them. We knew it. The decision was not made by the White House to attack them. I think you may want to correct the record," he added, "because I certainly knew."
But it doesn't end there either. The US foreign policy of destabilizing the Middle Eastern region over past decades has led to resentment and hate toward the West. Subsequently, ISIS has no problem filling its ranks with the family members of the victims of the West's brutal oppression in the region. As we reported last year, the United State's foreign policy of drone warfare, killing thousands of children, has created a million Osama bin Ladens.
Veterans are also coming forward to confirm this notion. Saying he had "helped create ISIS," an Iraq War veteran and US Marine bravely spoke out on his role in stoking the ISIS wildfire.
Former Marine Vincent Emanuele's acknowledgment of responsibility comes in an article that was posted on TeleSUR's English website, in which he hoped to answer the often raised question of "Where did ISIS come from?"
"I saw my fellow Marines kill innocent people, torture innocent civilians, destroying property, mutilating dead bodies, running over dead corpses, laughing and photographing people while doing so," he said. "For me it was very simple. I sat there in Iraq and I asked myself 'How would I behave?' 'What would I think if I was in the shoes of the Iraqi people?'"
"I vividly remember the marines telling me about punching, slapping, kicking, elbowing, kneeing and head-butting Iraqis. I remember the tales of sexual torture; forcing Iraqi men to perform sexual acts on each other while marines held knives against their testicles, sometimes sodomizing them with batons," wrote Emanuele.
"I knew what I was seeing was wrong, I knew it was immoral, I knew it was unjust, I knew it was illegal," said Emanuele,"and I knew that we would pay severe consequences in the form of the blowback as we are seeing with groups like ISIS. I knew those things were going to happen back then just from being a self-conscious person."
Only through educating ourselves and others about who is behind this theater of constant war and terror, will we ever begin to stop it. Continued dehumanization of Middle Eastern people and more war will only serve to fuel the flames of terrorism. It's high time American citizens stand up and bravely say — no more war.

Q: Java аннотации - реализация бизнес логики Хочу написать свои аннотации, так как возникло несколько идей, но не могу понять как это сделать. Вроде легко, но вопрос: как к аннотации прикрепить бизнес логику? Что я могу сделать с теми  данными которые мне пришли в аннотации. пример: @Annotation(SomeValue.VALUE). И как мне взять это велью с сделать с ним какую-то бизнес логику? Например засунуть в какой-то метод из другой библиотеки прокрутить его и вернуть значения..

A: Для использования своей аннотации нужно:

*

*Реализовать аннотацию (public @interface MyAnnotationExample c типом аннотации ElementType - например: класс/метод/конструктор/поле и т.п.).

*Использовать эту аннотацию MyAnnotationExample в вашем коде (в соответствии с типом ElementType аннотации MyAnnotationExample), т.е. добавить аннотацию к классу/методу/полю/и т.п.

*Реализовать обработчик этой аннотации через рефлексию.

Пример #1. Аннотация на класс и чтение аннотации класса через рефлексию.
Создадим аннотацию MyAnnotationExampleForClass:
import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;
import java.lang.annotation.Target;

@Target(value = ElementType.TYPE) //указание что данная аннотация вешается на класс
@Retention(value = RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) //аннотация доступна в процессе работы модуля
public @interface MyAnnotationExampleForClass {

    String name() default "default name"; //в name() мы будем хранить значения аннотации
}

Создадим класс MyClassExample с использованием аннотации MyAnnotationExampleForClass:
@MyAnnotationExampleForClass(name = "this is my annotation value!!!")
public class MyClassExample {
...
}

Создадим класс MyAnnotationProcessorExample для получения значений аннотаций:
class MyAnnotationProcessorExample {
        MyClassExample myClass = new MyClassExample();
        //получаем нашу аннотацию из нашего объекта
        MyAnnotationExampleForClass a = myClass.getClass().getAnnotation(MyAnnotationExampleForClass.class);
    System.out.println("выводим значение аннотации = " + a.name());
    System.out.println("печатаем тип аннотации со значением = " + a.toString());
    }

Пример #2. Аннотация на метод класса и чтение аннотации метода через рефлексию.
   Добавим еще аннотацию MyAnnotationExampleForMethod для метода:
@Target(value = ElementType.METHOD)
@Retention(value = RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
public @interface MyAnnotationExampleForMethod {

    String name() default "default name 2";
}

Добавим в наш класс MyClassExample (из примера #1) новый метод runForest():
@MyAnnotationExampleForClass(name = "this is my annotation value!!!")
public class MyClassExample {

    @MyAnnotationExampleForMethod(name = "this is my method-annotation value")
    public void runForest() { System.out.println("Our Forest run very good!"); }
}

Создадим класс MyAnnotationProcessorExample2 для получения значений аннотаций:
class MyAnnotationProcessorExample2 {
        MyClassExample myClass = new MyClassExample();

        //получаем наш метод из нашего объекта
        Method m = tm.getClass().getMethod("runForest");

        //получаем аннотацию из нашего метода
        MyAnnotationExampleForMethod a = m.getAnnotation(TimeAnnotationMethod.class);

    System.out.println("выводим значение аннотации = " + a.name());
    System.out.println("печатаем тип аннотации со значением = " + a.toString());
    }

Теперь можно эти классы-обработчики MyAnnotationProcessorExample и MyAnnotationProcessorExample2 использовать в нужных местах для обработки бизнес-логики.
Примеры привел самые примитивные, только для общего понимания.
Для более полноценных реализаций нужно разбираться с понятием java reflection.
Также рекомендую посмотреть темы:

*

*В каких случаях на практике применять рефлексию, аннотации?

*Зачем создавать собственные аннотации?

*Аннотация в Java EE

1936 March vol. 18, no. 2
First titled review article, published as a Note: MEYER SCHAPIRO, The New Vienna School, a review of Otto Pächt, ed., Kunstwissenchaftiche Forschungen II (pdf). Schapiro's lengthy and rigorously thoughtful review provided detailed summaries of the contributions in this volume partly to introduce a wider range of perspectives on art, and especially theoretical discussion, to American art historians who were not able to read this scholarship in the original German.
At this time, in response to the disturbing circumstances and events that eventually led to the Second World War, German and other European scholars had begun to emigrate to America.
Regarding the 1930s, few historiographers have considered the complex role that CAA and Art Bulletin played in the reception of European émigrés, and some facts may prove surprising. It should be noted that several CAA protested the growing number of Europeans publishing in the Art Bulletin. On April 7, 1936, a letter was submitted to the CAA board of directors by sixteen members, including Helen M. Franc, [Millard] Meiss, and Meyer Schapiro, as well as two editorial board members, [Walter S.] Cook and [William] Dinsmoor. Among their varied concerns, they stated that given Art Bulletin was "the only scholarly art periodical in America, . . . it would only be fair to restrict the articles . . . to the work of American scholars." However, they qualified their words, saying that articles by foreigners should be limited to those who were affiliated with United States institutions or were truly exceptional. They felt the journal had previously gained an international reputation because of the contributions published by U.S. scholars, and the recent inclusion of so many texts by foreigners made it difficult for them to have their essays published and significantly slowed down the production process for everyone involved, sometimes by several years. Such a decree to protect the national identity of CAA and Art Bulletin was significant, especially because Cook, who was known for hiring so many Europeans, was one of the spearheads in this campaign. To help immigrant scholars find work, CAA ran a lecture bureau that created speaking engagements at various institutions throughout the United States.
