Israeli Tech Ecosystem Marginalizes Israelis of Non-European Descent, Says NGO Director
Takele Mekonen, the executive director of Tech-Career, a non-governmental organization that operates as a tech training center for Israel's Ethiopian community, believes the key to pulling the community out of poverty is a career in tech
The Israeli tech ecosystem is a bubble marginalizing people of non-European descent, Takele Mekonen, the executive director of Tech-Career, a local non-governmental organization that operates as a tech training center for Israel's Ethiopian community, told Calcalist in an interview Thursday. According to Mekonen, the manner in which people are hired into the local tech sector— favoring friends of friends and alumni of Israeli military elite units, for example— means that only certain types of people employ these lucrative jobs, while minority groups and less affluent populations find it hard to get their foot in the door.

Mekonen immigrated to Israel at the age of 16 and spent his military service at the Israeli Air Force's unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) unit. From there, he moved on to an 11-year career in the Israeli tech sector. At the age of 36, he decided to dedicate his time to serving his community. The highest professional aspiration in Israel today is a career in tech, Mekonen said, explaining the organization's focus on professional training.
Last week, thousands of members of Israel's Ethiopian community took to the streets blocking major traffic arteries in protest of police brutality against members of the community, systematic discrimination, ingrained racism, and a culture of racial profiling by Israeli police.

What sparked the current wave of protest was the killing of 18-year-old Solomon Tekah, who was fatally shot last week by an off-duty cop. While police contend that the cop was trying to stop a fight and attempted a warning shot that rebounded and hit Tekah in the chest, eyewitnesses assert that the cop aimed his weapon directly at Tekah's chest from 30 meters away. An initial autopsy proved inconclusive.
Israel's Jewish population has a number of ethnic minorities. One such minority is Ethiopian Jews, a community that has long suffered official and unofficial discrimination, from schools refusing to admit its members, through blood donated by members of the community being thrown out without inspection by the country's blood bank, to reports of alleged forced chemical sterilization of female Ethiopians by Israeli medical officials. Though all three issues raised some public outrage at the time, it soon died out.
Data published by the Adva Center, a Tel Aviv-based non-partisan Israeli policy analysis center, shows that the Ethiopian community is also the poorest group of Israeli Jews, with 23% of Ethiopian households defined as poor compared to 13% in the country's general Jewish population. By promoting tech training for Ethiopian community members, Tech-Career hopes to help members ascend into the upper classes of Israeli society.
In 2016, the net monthly income for an Israeli-Ethiopian household was NIS 11,250 (approximately $3,150), according to the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics, substantially less than the average monthly income for the entire population standing at NIS 15,751 (approximately $4,400) for all households in Israel. Ethiopian couples divorce at a rate almost double that of the country's general population, leading to many households depending on a single income-earner, a woman in most cases.
In Israel, tech employees earn nearly 2.5 times the average wage of non-tech employees, according to a report published by Israel-based Taub Center for Social Policy Studies, which reviewed data from 2013.
Tech-Career provides students with one year of intensive studies in Lod in one of four programs: software, cyber networks, communication networks, and software testing. The students are between the ages of 22 and 30 and undergo rigorous screening by the association, Mekonen said. According to Mekonen, 25% of the costs of about NIS 40,000 (approximately $11,190) per student comes from the state and the rest from donations mainly from American philanthropists.
Tech-Career currently works with some of the largest tech companies operating in Israel, including Intel, Facebook, mobile monetization company IronSource Ltd., and Nasdaq-listed website building company Wix.com Ltd., Mekonen said. The organization's future plans include adding educational programs for young mothers and expanding its pool of partner companies.
Tech-Career was founded in 2002 and has already trained 700 young people for tech careers, but Mekonen believes the organization has greater potential hoping to reach 1,000 graduates a year within five years.

Parking is $15
Goldstar Member
And dine at myth taverna. A delicious Greek restaurant nearby.
Cirque du Soleil: Amaluna
As much as I love my little ones and always take them with us to fun activities I think this type of performance is target for adults and so I would take this as a "date night, adults night out type of show". And if you do bring your kiddos make sure you explain that not just anyone can contortions like that or jump from few feet up and survive that this are pros!! .. But then again a 2-8 year old can not grab that concept yet and you might find they are trying exactly what they saw at home or the playground.. So save yourself from giving them even more ideas that can put them in harms way. Besides there's a lot of people and people like us who do have children but would like to enjoy an "adults only" evening once in a while. I do believe the age limit should be 10/12 years old an up. And this comes from a loving parent and teacher.
Arrive early so you can find street parking .
Parking was $15 and very close to the venue. Very convenient!
The weather was sunny but slightly cold. I wore jeans and a nice shirt with a sweater. Others were more dressed up. .
Don't bring anything that you don't want to carry in your lap. There isn't any room for jackets or purses, unless it's on the floor under your seat.
Street parking is free after 6... Parking near by was $15
I arrived 30 min early for the 4:30pm show and found street parking free on Sundays; easy to find one as people were leaving from an earlier show.
Try to find street parking to save a few bucks!

We were directed to another lot and paid $15.00! Gouging going on.
Seats are uncomfortable, i wish i had brought back support or used their booster seat
2 hr meter parking. plenty of time to put in more money at intermission

The hero I picked is Adam Young from Owl City. I think Adam Young shows a lot of courage when he writes and sings his songs. I admire him a lot.
Adam Young first started singing in 2007. One of his songs was about his old girl friend who died a couple years ago. Adam Young mostly sings about his thoughts and feelings. Adam Young also sang over nine songs.
Adam Young inspires me because he puts a lot of effort and hard work into his songs. I look up to be him one day. My hero is Adam Young.

Investigation of the cold interstellar medium of high redshift galaxies by studying the physical properties of the Atomic Carbon and high-J CO lines.
Thesis Supervisor at ESO: Paola Andreani
External Supervisors: Padelis Papadopoulos (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece), Zhi-Yu Zhang (ESO and ROE), Chentao Yang (ESO Chile), Francesca Pozzi (University of Bologna, Italy)
The study of the Atomic Carbon, CI, in the nearby Universe and at high redshifts has shown that CI is a very powerful tracer of the bulk of molecular gas and starts giving an advantage at z>0.5 because its intrinsically higher flux compared to low-J CO lines. It remains well excited for the relatively diffuse cold molecular gas and it is mostly optically thin. CI is also less affected by the CMB effect in the early Universe, which prevents the full recovery of the total H2 gas, its kinematics and morphology using low-J CO line and mm/submm dust continuum observations.

Posted: Apr 27, 2011 – 08:00 AM EST
LONDON, Apr. 27 /CSRwire/ - His Royal Highness Prince Michael of Kent has presented Safe Kids Worldwide and FedEx with his International Road Safety Award for the Safe Kids Walk This Way program. He presented his award at a reception to mark the forthcoming Decade of Action for Road Safety as declared by the United Nations.
Through Safe Kids Walk This Way, FedEx and Safe Kids Worldwide are making communities around the world safer places for children to play, explore and navigate streets through youth-focused pedestrian safety programs. The program began in 2000 and since then expanded from the U.S. alone to a total of nine countries. Since program inception, it has engaged more than 4 million child participants.
"The 'Safe Kids Walk This Way' program is already proving to be an important contribution to making roads safer in the developing world," said HRH Prince Michael of Kent. "I congratulate FedEx for its substantial support for the program through an investment worth millions of dollars. It is an outstanding example of how major corporations can make a real contribution to saving lives."
"A staggering 720 children die across the globe from road traffic crashes every day. FedEx and Safe Kids Worldwide influence traffic legislation through public policy initiatives to help children," said John Formisano, president and CEO of Safe Kids Worldwide. "In addition, together we help change unsafe behaviors in children through education on how to safely travel to and from school, equip teachers and parents with tools to keep kids safe, and create safer environments through infrastructure improvements such as improved crosswalks, signs and sidewalks."
Added Formisano, "FedEx has helped the program expand from only the U.S. to eight additional countries, and the program elements are flexible, allowing local communities to customize the program based on its culture and specific needs. It is vitally important, especially in low- and middle-income countries, to raise awareness about child pedestrian safety, where the idea of prevention is only now beginning to gain momentum."
Safe Kids Walk this Way delivers benefits to communities in three ways:
The Global Decade of Action for Road Safety
Thousands of people are killed or injured in road crashes each day, and it is projected that annual road traffic deaths will increase to 1.9 million people by 2020.(1) To help bring needed attention to this dire issue, the United National General Assembly has declared a Decade of Action to stabilise and ultimately reduce the projected forecast of road traffic deaths and injuries worldwide by 2020.
(1) World Health Organization, 2010.
About Prince Michael International Road Safety Awards

Cook Smarter: The Secrets to Cooking Meat (Without Messing It Up)
Whether you follow a low-carb, no-carb, or just a plain old omnivore diet, cooking meat is an art. We have a few secrets to share that will make you a meat master.
Cooking meat is a little art and a little science. From getting just the right color on the outside to making sure it stays moist on the inside, we've got a few secrets to make your meat memorable.
Creating the Perfect Crispy Crust
As an experienced meat eater you probably didn't realize you already know all about one of the most delicious chemical reactions that happen in the kitchen. It's called the Maillard Reaction. The Maillard Reaction is what produces the thick caramel-colored crust on the surface of cuts of pork, chicken, and beef when they're prepared with a cooking method using high-temperature and dry-heat techniques. Named for the French chemist Louis-Camille Maillard who discovered the process, the Maillard Reaction happens when carbohydrates and amino acids in the meat react at high heat to produce flavorful molecules that manifest as sweet, earthy, and aromatic taste sensations. Here are a few tips to help you achieve a perfect crust:
- Pat proteins completely dry with paper towels before cooking so the meat browns and crisps rather than steams.
- Make sure the grill or pan is clean and preheated on high heat before adding the meat.
- A cast iron skillet is excellent for achieving a tasty crust because it maintains a very high temperature.
- Using a thick piece of meat is also preferred because it gives the crust more time to develop before the meat overcooks.
Cooking Your Meat at the Right Temperature
Cooking meat, poultry, and pork perfectly is not hard to do if you have a meat thermometer. A meat thermometer takes the guesswork out of making sure meats are cooked to a safe minimum internal temperature. For best results, the instant-read thermometer should be inserted into the thickest part of the protein without touching the bone. This will help you get an accurate temperature read. Here are some of the temperatures to make note of (as recommended by the U.S. Department of Agriculture).
- Chicken and turkey should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Regular cuts of beef, pork, and lamb should be cooked to 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Ground meats should be cooked to 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Contrary to common belief, it is OK to eat slightly pink pork; right at 145 degrees, pork will be a little pink-looking and completely safe to eat. However, if you are cooking chicken breasts or chicken thighs and find yourself without a thermometer, you can cut into the chicken and let the juices run out. If the juices are tinted pink, more cooking time is needed; if the juices are clear, it's done cooking. You can also make a small cut in the chicken — if the meat is white, it's fully cooked.
Marinate Meat for Maximum Flavor
Whether you are grilling, roasting, or cooking your meat on the stove-top, a good marinade can boost the flavor and add complexity to any cut of meat. Every marinade should include a fat component to help transfer fat-soluble flavors into the meat. Fats like vegetable oil, olive oil, coconut oil or butter help flavor the meat and keep it moist. Another component to include is acid. Acids like buttermilk, vinegar, wine, and citrus juices break down connective tissue in meat and help in tenderization. When you have your fat and acid selected, you can add aromatics and seasonings like salt, herbs, spices, onions, and garlic to add layers of flavor. When you're ready to cook, here are a few tips for doing it right:
- Minimize exposure to air during marination. Place chicken, pork loin, pork chops, or steaks in a zip-top plastic bag and squeeze out most of the air before sealing. This allows the marinade to adhere closely to the surface of the meat while marinating.
- Use approximately a 1/2 cup of marinade for each pound of meat. Dense cuts such as pork and steak can be marinated for 24 hours or longer while chicken only needs about an hour.
Get Your Grill On
Some say that everything tastes better on a barbecue. It's not a foolproof method for cooking meat, but there are a few good strategies to do it well:
- Make sure that meat is properly thawed (if frozen) and at room temperature before cooking. Remove thawed meat from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.
- Don't trim all the fat before cooking; the fat will keep the meat moist.
- If your meat has been marinated in a sugary marinade, it should be cooked on medium heat (rather than high) to prevent those surface sugars from burning.
- Oil the meat, not the grill, to prevent sticking and promote caramelization and grill marks.
- Make sure to season meats with salt just before they go on the grill. Premature salt seasoning will draw juices to the surface, where they'll be lost.
Give Your Meat a Rest
Always let your meat sit for a few minutes after cooking before you serve it. When cooking animal proteins like chicken breasts, pork, and steak, fibers in the muscle firm up and moisture is pushed towards the surface of the meat. Once taken out of the oven or off the stove or grill, the juices inside need time to be redistributed back into the meat. If you cut into your baked chicken breasts, roast or pork tenderloin immediately, it will end up dry and the tasty juices will be lost on your cutting board. By letting it rest, you can ensure that each cut of meat will be tender, tasty, and juicy.

What we do
A bit about life in Enfield
Enfield is a suburban borough in north London. It underwent a major redevelopment project in 2007 that retained the Palace Gardens Shopping Centre whilst adding many new shops to the existing retail area as well as a second multi-storey car park.

This book explores the pastor-intercessor relationship in making our city a house of prayer by suggesting ways to rethink how we can interact with cross-denominational leadership, opening the way for unity to flourish.
Additionally, we provide guidelines for appropriate altar ministry and corporate prayer settings, prayers for youth and children, and tools for writing your own prayers addressing the mission and vision statement of your own, or other, ministries. We also address the business aspect of starting a ministry and walk the reader through the process of taking a small prayer group from the home into the community and making your city a house of prayer.
"Any book with a title like Make Your City a House of Prayer begs to be read We in the USA are such an independent, individualistic bunch and often suffer from not praying and working together to advance His Kingdom in our cities and nation. Such heart unity, my colleagues and I have observed in many national prayer initiatives, is what facilitates the breakthroughs and transformations of the Lord even in impossible, discouraging, oppressive situations. We do need the kind of paradigm that Lynn Ferder shares in her book. She has much experience in personally living out this paradigm and in training many others to do so. Her guidelines for corporate, united prayer and the place of children and youth will also be extremely valuable. I heartily endorse this book and its wonderful theme. May it catch on across our nation and in other nations as well "

Our households are the regular means for growing in charity, zeal for mission, compassion, and much more. We gather weekly (or every other week) and lift each other up to walk the path of holiness together. They are also opportunities to be joyful Christians as we experience the fraternal life of the Emmanuel Community. Two proofs of this from one of our Minnesota households: having some Halloween fun and celebrating birthdays.
When household was held at the Triplett home around Halloween, the arriving brothers and sisters were surprised to find themselves being escorted into a jail cell. Tom Triplett had made it for a Catholic school fundraiser so he decided to have some fun with it with the household. Thankfully for the three captives, it wasn't a cold night and they didn't have to stay "in jail" long.
Then, in the week after Thanksgiving, Heather Triplett and Katy Jantscher celebrated their birthdays (they won't say how many years). Since one of the birthdays fell on a day when the group would normally have household, they decided to make it a "festive" household. They gathered at Buca di Beppo and were seated at the Cardinal table. How appropriate for a Catholic group! Thanksgiving evangelization moments were shared, upcoming trips were announced, and bellies were satisfied by the yummy family-style food. The night ended with a massive brownie sundae, two slices of cake, and a happy birthday song as the birthday women blew out the candles on a candelabra.
What a gift we have in our weekly households!!!
Heather (MN)

United States District Court, D. Nebraska
May 1, 2018
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff,v.APRIL VENTURA-SERAFIN, Defendant.
F. Rossiter, Jr. United States District Judge.
matter is before the Court on petitioner April
Ventura-Serafin's ("Serafin") Motion Under 28
U.S.C. § 2255 to Vacate, Set Aside, or Correct Sentence
by a Person in Federal Custody (Filing No. 48). For the
reasons stated below, the motion is denied and no certificate
of appealability shall issue.
December 2, 2016, Serafin pled guilty pursuant to a written
plea agreement to (1) possessing fifty grams or more of a
mixture or substance containing methamphetamine with intent
to distribute, see 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and
(b)(1), and (2) carrying a firearm in relation to a drug
trafficking crime, see 18 U.S.C. § 924(c). Each
crime carried a mandatory minimum of five years, and the
terms could not run concurrently. Id.
In the
plea agreement, Serafin admitted the offense involved between
350 and 500 grams of a mixture or substance containing
methamphetamine. The government agreed that, if Serafin was
eligible for an offense-level reduction for acceptance of
responsibility, it would move for an additional reduction of
one level under United States Sentencing Guidelines
("Guidelines") § 3E1.1. Section V(B) of the
plea agreement stated:
The parties further agree the defendant will make no
"blanket" objections to the criminal history
calculation (specific objections based on stated grounds are
permitted). Objections to criminal history on the basis that
the defendant was not the person who was convicted of the
offense(s) described in the presentence investigation report
or on the basis that the defendant was not represented by
counsel in connection with such conviction(s), if determined
to be unfounded, are evidence the defendant has not accepted
responsibility and the parties agree no credit for acceptance
of responsibility should be given.
the plea agreement contained a provision waiving any right to
challenge the conviction and sentence both on direct appeal
and collateral attack with two exceptions. The first
exception allowed Ventura-Serafin to challenge her conviction
and sentence "should the Eighth Circuit Court of
Appeals or the United States Supreme Court later find that
the charge to which the defendant is agreeing to plead guilty
fails to state a crime." The second allowed her
"to seek post-conviction relief based on ineffective
assistance of counsel."
Presentence Investigation Report ("PSR")
attributed between 1, 000 and 3, 000 kilograms of marijuana
equivalent to her, which would normally result in a base
offense level of 30. Id. § 2D1.1(c)(5). The PSR
stated she was a career offender based on two state drug
convictions, which automatically raised the offense level to
Id. § 4B1.1(b). After a two-level decrease for
acceptance of responsibility and an additional one-level
decrease in accordance with the plea agreement, the total
offense level was 31. Ventura-Serafin's criminal history
score was 12. While that criminal history score would
normally result in a criminal history category of V,
Ventura-Serafin's designation as a career offender
resulted in a criminal history category of VI. See
A total
offense level of 31 and a criminal history category of VI
resulted in a Guidelines range for incarceration of 262 to
327 months. Id. § 4B1.1(c)(2). The Guidelines
range for supervised release was four to five years for the
drug charge and two to five years for the gun charge. The
probation officer recommended a downward variance to 200
months imprisonment, 140 months for the drug charge and 60
months for the gun charge, with the sentences to run
consecutively. The probation officer recommended two
five-year supervised release terms to run concurrently.
attorney, Donald L. Schense ("Schense"), did not
object to the career-offender designation and stated in a
filing, "Unfortunately, but true, it appears this
Chapter 4 Enhancement is correctly applied pursuant to
U.S.S.G. 4B1.1. [sic] and as such, the Defendant will offer
no non-frivolous objections." The government adopted
the PSR with no objections.
At the
sentencing hearing on February 24, 2017, the Court accepted
the plea agreement. Neither party made any objections or
argument during the hearing beyond allocution. The Court
accepted the recommendation of the probation officer and
sentenced Ventura-Serafin to consecutive sentences of 140
months imprisonment for the drug charge and 60 months
imprisonment for the gun charge, followed by concurrent
five-year terms of supervised release on each charge.
December 4, 2017, Ventura-Serafin filed the present motion
alleging four claims of ineffective assistance of counsel.
Ventura claims Schense was ineffective because he failed to
(1) adequately inform her that the plea agreement prohibited
any challenge to her criminal history and waived appeal, (2)
object to her designation as a career offender, (3) object to
the PSR, and (4) prosecute a direct appeal. The Court held an
evidentiary hearing on these issues on April 20, 2018.
Standard of Review
defendant 'faces a heavy burden' to establish
ineffective assistance of counsel pursuant to section
2255." Deroo v. United States, 223 F.3d 919,
925 (8th Cir. 2000) (quoting United States v. Apfel,
97 F.3d 1074, 1076 (8th Cir. 1996)). "To sustain [her]
ineffective assistance of counsel claim[s], [Ventura-Serafin]
must show '[her] counsel's representation was
deficient and that the deficient performance prejudiced the
defendant's case.'" Id. (quoting
Cheek v. United States, 858 F.2d 1330, 1336 (8th
Cir. 1988)).
Explanation of the Plea Agreement
asserts Schense "failed to adequately inform her she
was entering into a plea agreement that prohibited any
challenge to her criminal history and her waivers of
appeal." Ventura-Serafin believed Schense "could
make any argument to mitigate the sentence exposure"
and "misrepresented the specific paragraphs which

The Morning Risk Report: Rabobank to Pay Up Over Compliance End Run
Subscribe to The Morning Risk Report here: http://on.wsj.com/MorningRiskReportSignup. Follow us on Twitter at @WSJRisk.
Good morning. A unit of Dutch lender Rabobank Group agreed to forfeit nearly $369 million after admitting it processed transactions worth hundreds of millions of dollars of illicit funds, and conspired with executives to conceal compliance failures from a regulator.
Risk & Compliance Journal's Samuel Rubenfeld reports the California-based subsidiary pleaded guilty to a felony conspiracy charge for obstructing its regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. It comes two months after a former Rabobank vice president, George Martin, entered into a deferred-prosecution agreement with the U.S. government for his role in aiding and abetting the bank's failure to maintain an adequate anti-money-laundering compliance program.
Rabobank said the agreement closes the U.S. investigation into the bank's compliance failures. "The violations that took place are serious, regrettable and unacceptable," the bank said in a statement.
The bank received regular alerts of transactions by high-risk customers along the U.S.-Mexico border. Mr. Martin and others at the bank changed its compliance program to create a "verified list" of customers for whom the bank wouldn't require review of a transaction, regardless of risk, to cut down on alerts, prosecutors said.
Compliance staff were told by Mr. Martin and others to aggressively increase the number of accounts on that list, effectively resulting in what prosecutors called an "end run" around anti-money-laundering compliance requirements.
Crisis of the week: VW is back in the spotlight. Volkswagen admitted it conducted diesel-emissions testing on humans and animals following a news report in January that exposed the practice. Three crisis-management experts scrutinize VW's response.

U.S. shuts down cybercrime forum. Federal authorities closed an online marketplace they said was responsible for more than $530 million in fraud over seven years. The forum, Infraud, allowed criminals to buy and sell items such as stolen credit-card numbers, the WSJ reports.

In Name Only (1939)
"I'll see Ms. Eden whenever and wherever I can."
Redeeming Qualities and Moments:
Must See?
Posted on September 10th, 2013 by admin
Filed under: Original Reviews
One Response to "In Name Only (1939)"
First viewing. Not must-see, but it has its merits and surprises so, overall, it's not a bad watch.
Ultimately this is merely soap opera but it's better than I expected and, if you let yourself get through the somewhat-sluggish opening scenes, you'll find the film taking off in some interesting directions. Two such interesting directions are: Lombard is hesitant to fall for Grant and she is very sensitive to her sister's view of 'home-wreckers'.
Some added fuel then makes the film somewhat more intriguing: As played by Francis, Grant's wife is a classic narcissist and scary. She knows exactly how to wear complete masks that are quite the opposite of her real nature, and has also mastered the arts of manipulating others and orchestrating their movements to her advantage. Hers is a very disturbing character to watch (at least, I think so).
Even though there is no outright 'humor' in this film, Grant is, in some scenes, afforded the opportunity to reveal his usual dependable charm – and it becomes easier to see why Lombard eventually falls under his spell. As for Lombard, she's quite pleasant throughout; watching this – and knowing she had only a few years more to live – you really can't help but speculate on how her career would likely have continued to blossom.
The screenplay gets better as it goes along and, even if it never completely rises from its cookie-cutter quality as a heart-tugger, ir remains reasonably compelling (most notably in its confrontation sequences, and there's a considerable number of those).
IMDb informs us that this film was intended by RKO as a follow-up to the pairing of Grant and Katherine Hepburn in 'Bringing Up Baby'. The follow-up idea was dropped when 'BUB' flopped and Hepburn was branded 'box office poison'. Sometimes a forced change in casting can actually be a relief: Hpeburn would probably have been terrible in Lombard's role (my guess).

"Goka Gabashvili was nearly spitting blood when talking about Ivanishvili""Today the opposition is not worth even a single penny. Bidzina saw that they are not capable of doing anything and had to venture himself into the fight for the survival of Georgia," – said Eldar Nadiradze, father of former Chair of the Majority Faction Maia Nadiradze, and a resident of Chorvila, the village of Bidzina Ivanishvili who has lodged a major political challenge against the current Authorities. He knows Bidzina Ivanishvili from childhood.
As readers are well aware, last week Georgian billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili appeared before the public in the new role. He announced that he is going to take part in the coming Parliamentary elections.
Eldar Nadiradze: "Social hardships will not quash patriotic feelings in the people. The Nationals played very well on these feeling. They benefited much when we were screaming all our guts out. After they came into power though, they lost the energy to follow their promises. Even more, they started to wage a war against the representatives of culture and science. Georgian National Academy of Sciences is robbed and stripped of its rights. Georgian theatre is raped. Georgian language is neglected and degraded. Scientific research institutes are reduced to shambles. Georgian diplomas have gone down in value. When the Government persecutes science, art, national values and Church and has no respect for the people, nothing positive would outweigh the impact of the above said misdeeds, be it massive construction of roads, police revival or craving of Paliko Kublashvili (member of the Majority) to remain in power indefinitely. Politicians of Kublashvili's type cannot imagine why anyone may forego his or her interest for the sake of homeland, especially when he or she is the richest person in the country. For me, there is nothing strange and sensational in the behavior of Ivanishvili. He was ought to take such a move.
Q: The public is interested in the person of Bidzina Ivanishvili. He is not alien for you. Could you tell us some more about him?
A: Bidzina dislikes people with inflated ego, especially arrogant people. He is very democratic. He would not make anyone feel even for a second that they are not equal. He likes sincere talk and good humor. If you want to gain his respect, do not overly praise him. His father Grisha was a famous man in the village. His word was in high esteem. His mom Tsitsino was a straightforward woman. If she saw a lazy man, she would call on him or her loudly to move a hand and earn something for living. Their family has not lived a second without labor. They raised five children. If you are accustomed to laborious life from childhood, you are going to keep working all your life. This is how Bidzina grew up. First he went to Tbilisi to get education and graduated from the faculty of economy with distinction. Next he defended his dissertation in Russia. He had nobody in Moscow to help him. Yet, he made it through thanks to his natural abilities and diligence.
I am seven years senior to Bidzina. I remember him from the childhood. He did not obey teachers. This unbridled streak in his character coupled with the feeling of protest followed him all the way to the maturity. When I once suggested him to take part in the Presidential elections, he shrugged it off saying it was not his business. When they say that he has been financing the Governmental projects, he would do it for the safety of his family. Neither did he have peace of mind during the Shevardnadze era. Shevardnadze used to call him to his office and ask him to do this and that. Bidzina had to attend every request or else he could have been proclaimed as an enemy or his plane could have been blown up in the air.
Bidzina did not want to go into politics but they eclipsed his patience. They were requesting too many things from him and were doing it arrogantly, insulting him all the time. This man did many things. Yet, every time Saakashvili went and opened a new enterprise he would 'forget' to mention him. He could understand if it had happened once, twice and so. However, how could you 'forget it the hundredth time? He is the man who cannot be cheated. The Authorities are extremely unnerved by Bidzina's decision. They will do their utmost to harm him. They will break into his family and even try to arrest him. Alternatively, they will try to force him out of Georgia.
Q: Robert Sturua published Ivanishvili's statement on his Facebook page and commented on it with "they will kill him".
A: Recently Goka Gabashvili was nearly spitting blood when he was talking about Ivanishvili. The opposition is wrong when it's making fun of Saakashvili. Misha is not a simpleton and an easy mark to get rid of. He is an Asian type of a despot who has intuition and drive. Sometimes he plays a role of an idiot and aptly dons the right masks. He and his surroundings will resort to all the dirty and immoral tricks to retain the power.

Copyrights and related rights are a branch of intellectual property. Copyright protects authors of literary and artistic works. Related rights protect performances by holders of related rights. These may be performers (singers, musicians, actors, etc.), producers of sound works or first film recordings, radio/television organisations and databank producers.
The most important legislation in this sector is the Law of 30 June 1994 on copyrights and related rights (hereinafter referred to as the "Copyright Law").
This regulation affects us all, even in our daily lives, such as when we listen to the radio, watch television, surf online, read the newspaper, go to the cinema, photocopy an article in a magazine or copy our favourite CD.
We use copyrighted material every day. The copyright law governs the rights of copyright owners and the obligations of those who use protected works, determines how copyright holders may exercise their rights and lays down what users must do to use works legally.
Justification of collective management
In practice, it is impossible to organise a direct contractual relationship between copyright holders and the user for some types of use. This is generally due to two factors: the large quantity and dispersion of copyright holders and users on the one hand and the very short interval between the decision to use the work and the effective use of the work on the other hand, which does not allow the user to identify the copyright holders and to reach an agreement with them.
The following types of use fall into the aforementioned category: radio broadcasting and public performance of musical works, cable re-broadcasting of performances and works, private copying of audiovisual and sound recordings, reprography and public lending.
In these sectors, copyright holders decided to be collectively managed by copyright management companies. These companies are generally limited liability cooperative companies governed by civil law. On the basis of reciprocal representation agreements signed with foreign companies, Belgian copyright management companies also represent foreign repertoires in Belgium, and conversely, foreign companies represent the repertoire of Belgian companies.
Concentrating copyrights or related rights related to a specific method of use within one company provides advantages to users of protected works and performances. Users have a single contact point which is supposed to represent a large repertoire of protected performances and works. In addition, they may sign a general agreement with the company for the use of the entire repertoire. In exchange for an authorisation to use the protected work, the user generally commits to pay for this use and to provide a list of works and performances used.
The concentration of copyrights within a management company also offers advantages to copyright holders. They have the possibility to properly exercise their exclusive rights and their right to remuneration. Without collective management, most copyright holders would receive no remuneration for the use of their performances and works.
As legislators are aware of these advantages, they have made collective management a requirement for certain types of use. This concerns cable re-broadcasting, private copying of sound and audiovisual recordings, reprography and public lending as well as radio broadcasting and screening of performances in public access buildings. To this end, legislators have established a presumption of copyright management in favour of collective management companies (Art. 53 of the Copyright Law) or accorded a rightful copyright monopoly to a management company for the collection and allocation of compensation rights (Art. 42, 55, 61 and 63 of the Copyright Law).
Still, the concentration of rights within one company gives it a dominant market position. Most of the time, this is a de facto monopoly. For private copying and reprography, two companies have a de facto monopoly. For certain types of use, there is competition between two or three companies. This is particularly the case for resale rights (required in case of resale of original works of art) and "major rights" (for example, rights on plays, operas, audiovisual works and literary works).
Legal obligations of management companies
Management companies have a monopoly position. They generally practice unilateral pricing as well as unilateral setting of reference amounts, copyright payment collection methods, conditions of authorisation for copyright holders, the status and rights of copyright holders within the company, the method of divvying up rights and the coverage of operating costs.
In order to prevent abuse of position and discriminatory behaviours (or in order to correct them), legislators have:
- Accorded rights to copyright holders and
- Imposed obligations on management companies.
The main rights given to copyright holders are:
- The right to be represented in company bodies (Art. 65bis, paragraph 2, line 3 of the Copyright Law), which gives them the right to serve as business associates and take part in the election of administrators;
- The right to entrust the company of their choice with managing one or more categories of works or performances from their repertoire, or to do so themselves (65bis, paragraph 2, line 1 of the Copyright Law);
- The right to entrust another management company with managing the rights associated with one or more categories of works or performances, or to do so themselves (Art. 66.4, paragraph 1, line 1).
The main obligations of management companies are:
- Only accept copyright holders as associates (Art. 65bis, paragraph 2, line 1);
- Upon request of a copyright holder, manage the latter's rights, in as much as the request is in line with the company's purpose and status (Art. 65.3, paragraph 1);
- Publish rules on pricing, collection and allocation (Art. 66, paragraph 1);
- Allow any persons with a legitimate interest to access (on-site or in writing) the repertoires which the companies manage and, if necessary, to provide written confirmation that a particular work is part of said repertoire (Art. 66.4, paragraph 2, line 1);
- Allocate between copyright holders of the concerned category any funds which have been definitively unable to be allocated (Art. 69);
- Provide certain documents to any associate who might request them (Art. 70);
- Save data related to pricing, collection and allocation of copyrights for ten years (Art. 76.3);
- Ensure professional secrecy for all information held by the company or which might be encountered during the exercise of their functions (Art. 78).
In order to ensure better transparency regarding their activities, management companies are also subject to certain accounting requirements. The main requirements (which enter into effect once the implementing orders are enacted):
- Separate managed copyright assets from own assets (Art. 65.3, paragraph 3), which requires uniform accounting methods for management companies;
- Pay the amounts collected for copyright holders to a special account (Art. 65.3, paragraph 3);
- Prepare a management report including analytical accounting (Art. 65.4, paragraph 2).
Supplementary rules on monitoring of management companies
Legislative objectives
When writing the Copyright Law, legislators clearly expressed their desire to establish effective monitoring of the activities of management companies. On the one hand, management companies play an ever-increasing role in the effective implementation of the privileges afforded to copyright holders. The establishment of compensation for methods of use such as private copying and reprography reinforces their role as imposed partners for both copyright holders as well as users.
On the other hand, management companies collect and allocate large amounts of money and complaints have been made in regard to the lack of transparency for their activities as well as regarding their high operating costs.
Given these facts, legislators decided to:
- Guarantee to copyright holders, users and the general public that management companies actually have the qualities required to carry out their activities;
- Guarantee objective and efficient allocation of funds;
- Guarantee better transparency of management companies' activities, including accounting, particularly via adopting a normalised minimum accounting plan (Art. 65.4, paragraph 1, line 2, not yet in effect).
Internal monitoring
The Copyright Law reinforces the internal monitoring of management companies by associates by enlarging the conditions of admission to management companies and increasing representation of copyright holders within company bodies (Art. 65bis, paragraph 2 and Art. 65.3, paragraph 1) as well as laying down certain obligations regarding the purpose of a certain number of rights (Art. 69) and providing a certain number of documents to associates (Art. 70).
Article 68 of the Copyright Law subjects management companies to auditing from an auditor chosen among the members of the Institute of Company Auditors. As defined in Art. 68.4, his mission is to audit the financial situation, annual accounts and the regularity of activities which must be mentioned in said accounts.
Articles 69 and 70 of the Copyright Law make the auditor responsible for certain specific missions.
Government control
Management companies must be authorised to engage in their activities in Belgium by the minister responsible for copyright (Art. 67).
Monitoring by the administration
The monitoring department of the Federal Public Service responsible for copyright is in charge of monitoring management companies' adherence to all laws and their application of statutes, pricing rules and collection/allocation rules (Art. 76 of the Copyright Law).
Article 76 of the Copyright Law lays down a process for external monitoring of the legality of management companies' statutes, rules and activities.
This is not meant to monitor whether management companies make appropriate decisions. As private companies representing private interests, management companies are themselves responsible for defining policies and making choices which best represent their interests, within legal limits.
In accordance with Article 76 of the Copyright Law, the monitoring department verifies whether the decisions made and steps taken by management companies correspond to their legal, contractual and statutory obligations. It also processes complaints about management companies. Finally, each management company undergoes a thorough bookkeeping analysis every year.
In addition to noting any infractions of legal provisions, orders of implementation and pricing, collection or allocation rules, the monitoring officers are responsible for seeking out any infractions targeted by Article 78bis.
Want to submit a complaint?
The monitoring department is responsible for ensuring that management companies adhere to all laws, statutes and rules on pricing, collection and allocation. A complaint may be submitted to the Directorate-General Economic Inspection (monitoring department for management companies) regarding a copyright management company by users, copyright holders or third parties whenever the decisions made and steps taken by a management company do not meet their legal, contractual or statutory obligations.

Creon Heartbreaking Hero Essay: Unique Catastrophe of this Hero Creon
The job of Sophocles Antigone features by itself an in-depth message. Catastrophe of Sophocles Antigone was published by Sophocles basing on mythological plan of Theban pattern about queen Oedipus. Turmoil of two significant literary characters of Antigone and Creon is traceable in such a deliver the results. Whilst discovering this catastrophe one time, viewer might get drastically wrong appearance about in whose destiny was heartbreaking. In that Creon heartbreaking hero essay, I am going to seek to make clear from my personal opinion and response the thought Who is often the heartbreaking hero within this masterwork of Ancient greek playwright Sophocles? Should you need help with crafting of essays, it is easy to speak to ourbest essay creating solution. More in depth details you may findhere. To start with, I has thought to challenge by helping cover their the concept of phrase disaster and so this variety, particularly with Ancient greek disasters.
Concise explanation of term disaster and plan of Ancient greek disasters
To begin with, allow us to search on meaning of text disaster. There are various descriptions of the term. It implies fascinating celebration, really serious cark. The other description is significant is effective, which depicts a tighten challenge, your own or people problem in most cases stops using the dying in the hero. The disputes of real life are moved to the misfortune within a strong way. That is a unique approach to affect on spectators to be able to wake the potency of their inner thoughts and beget the faith based growth. The disaster happened in early Greece, due to the spiritual and ceremonial worship towards our god of winemaking and expanding of grapesDionysus. Solemn tunes (praises) ended up sung by choir in recognition on the our god, along with video games and dances. Men and women also diminished goats on the Lord. They decked out in goatskins, strapped the hooves, horns and tails, showing Dionysus satellites goat legged satyrs. While doing so particular artist separated itself, who shown Dionysus or some mythological character, additionally, the choir or this specific vocalist conducted vocal singing alternately. That would be how message misfortune is found (misfortune in Ancient greek usually means track on the goats). At the beginning, simply the choir together with the article author themselves when the main actor gone to it. The 1st misfortune reported the beliefs about Dionysus: his battling, dying, resurrection, battle and triumph in the opponents. Then poets begun to attract articles with their will work along with other stories. In this connection, the choir begun to present not satyrs, and various other mythical pests or men and women, with regards to the articles of your have fun with. Misfortune contacted its top optimum point inside the 5th century B.C. Athenian poets, which include Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides published a large number of runs of the variety. The misfortune arose from your solemn chants. It consists of held its magnificence and severity, its characters happen to be robust personas, endowed by using a tough-willed charm and terrific interest. Ancient greek misfortune continually shown some really hard events in your lifetime of a assert as well as particular, a dreadful criminal activity, anguish and serious ethical battling. It had been no area for humor and fun. Essential illness for the catastrophe stands out as the size of this functions. It will always be something of very high issues, which includes proper rights, absolutely love, basics, ethical obligation for example. For this reason, the characters of disaster tend to be the character types, which inhabit an expensive reputation monarchs, generals, and the like. Their steps and fates possess a definitive affect on the famous growth of the culture. Characters of your disaster make a decision standard problems of lifetime. The chief concept of old Ancient greek disasters were actually stories (even though, there was clearly also disasters, written and published on modern day plots of the time, for instance function Persians, published by Aeschylus). On this essay, I am going to contact the project of Sophocles Antigone.
What exactly is the value of tyranny? Heartbreaking destiny of Emperor Creon
The notion of this disaster by Sophocles, evidently, is the fact that human being need to operate his obligation in every situations. In this manner, the characters of Sophocles show up: they strongly go along with its concepts, of course, if they pick the right way, then their passing away can bring him posthumous popularity. In one other disaster of Sophocles 'Antigone', put in 442 century B.C., two standards enter in to discord collectively during the title from the little princess of Oedipus Antigone and Theban queen, Creon. More info on the concept of trouble, you will find inessay on struggle. Violating the prohibition of Creon, Antigone built funeral service rites on the body system of his buddy, which the emperor taken into consideration a traitor. From the aim of look at Creon, the king's expression need to be sacred to people, and breach of this king's decree can not be warranted. Even so, for Antigone all ethical, unwritten, time-recognized and recommended by doctors via the gods laws and regulations are first and foremost across the world, these legal guidelines commanded her to operate associated obligations and pay back honor to his sibling due to dry. All the two characters on the catastrophe from the very own simple fact; betraying fees Antigone, Creon comes next his confidence. Less than uncomplicated to figure out who seems to be ideal. Condemning Antigone to demise by hunger, Creon will take no cruelty. He can take the knowledge from the ruler that is scared of running into the area issues, betraying her setup of an distinct form. Since the straight complimentary men murder entailed, with the perception of the Greeks, the resentment tone of destroyed human being: this shadow will have roamed the this town with the goal of vengeance to his awesome, and might bring in the filth to area. Sophocles illustrates the difficulty of fixing the situation of suitable pick of our norms of tendencies in environment. Ethical glory of Antigone appears to be indisputable, simply because Creon's situation is sophisticated from the mistreatment of electricity: he overlooked the thoughts and opinions of us all around him. Creon chooses the destiny of Antigone but not only question recommendations from just about anyone, but will also reject all attempts to intercede within his determination. The options of tyrant are established in Creons practices and opinions. He see as slaves not just his servants, but more his family. From the presentation of Sophocles, Creon, just like any tyrant, he or she is distrustful. He claims that Ismene, will not be accountable for disobedience, was an accomplice of Antigone https://ukessayswritingservices.blogspot.com/2018/02/process-essay.html. He fails to pay attention to the misunderstandings of his child Haemon, who cautions the daddy within the action, which happens to be not authorized by the occupants of this town. He or she is surprised by his fury. There are certainly hardly any other factors behind him, rather than the possibility that many people dare to contradict him. For this reason, the heartbreaking a sense of guilt of Creon is neglect of electrical power, infringement of ethical standards. For that reason, he or she is reprimanded along with the passing of his family. If Antigone passes away along with the awareness of obligation, then Creon is required to settle for the awareness of permanent problem on the gods, the locals with his fantastic partner and child. Creons catastrophe is definitely the disaster of strength, which Creon misunderstands.
Bottom line
Style of music of catastrophe continually portrays tough and hard history of literary characters. In get the job done Antigone we can easily see, that tyranny of queen Creon, his rage and loss of sight brings simply to suffering and pain. In spite of dreadful destiny of Antigone, she actually is not the chief heartbreaking hero right here. Definitely, Emperor Creon, who drops by far the most useful for his everyday living (spouse and child), is a fundamental heartbreaking hero.

Six terminally-ill children who've been calling hospital home have been treated to a special outing on Sydney Harbour with NSW Police.
The children and their families and carers donned life jackets and were taken for a spin around the harbour courtesy of the Marine Area Command.
They were given an opportunity to meet with police divers, inspect their equipment and tour their unit before their boat adventure.
"It was the funnest time I'd had in a long time," one of the boys said.
They were even allowed to help steer the boat and were presented with a medal to help remember the day.
"Our mission today is simple, to have a bit of fun, put some smiles on some faces with a couple of boat rides and a BBQ," a Marine Area Command spokesman said.
The children, who had the opportunity to leave their wards Children's Hospital at Westmead for the day, were then treated to a BBQ lunch attended by Police Minister Troy Grant.
