Belgium should speed up the social inclusion of persons with disabilities

Belgium should speed up the social inclusion of persons with disabilities

Read the report

“Belgium is failing to uphold the rights of persons with disabilities to live independently and be included in the community. Planned measures to improve the situation should be implemented as a matter of priority” said today Nils Muižnieks, Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, while releasing a report on his visit to the country, carried out from 14 to 18 September 2015. The report also focuses on the human rights of migrants, asylum seekers, and Roma and Travellers.

The widespread institutionalisation of persons with disabilities, combined with a lack of community-based services, limits these persons’ possibilities to lead an autonomous life, a right enshrined in the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. This problem is compounded by the high number of children with disabilities who are educated in specialised schools, separately from other children, with little prospect of being reintegrated into mainstream education. Commissioner Muižnieks calls for a nation-wide commitment towards the inclusion of children with disabilities in mainstream education.

Additionally, the detention of persons with psychosocial and intellectual disabilities in overcrowded psychiatric wards in Belgian prisons, without providing them with adequate treatment, remains an outstanding serious problem, in spite of several judgments of the European Court of Human Rights which found Belgium in violation of the European Convention on Human Rights in this area. “Belgium must take swift action to address these violations. Some positive steps have been taken in 2014, such as the building of a new specialised facility and the adoption of legislation easing transfers from the penitentiary system to health care institutions. The implementation process must now accelerate.”

As regards migration and asylum, the Commissioner welcomes Belgium’s bolstered reception capacity and increased resettlement quota. However, he urges the authorities to speed up the registration of newly arrived asylum seekers so that they are not left without accommodation while registration is pending. He also deplores the widespread practice of detaining asylum seekers at the border and the lack of systematic judicial review of detention. Moreover, the Commissioner welcomes that families of migrants with children are currently accommodated in open family units and calls on the authorities to refrain from resuming the practice of detaining these families in closed detention centres.

As regards Roma migrants, the marginalisation and acute destitution of a limited number of families is of serious concern. “Promising practices providing targeted social assistance and using mediators have been implemented in some cities, notably Ghent. These examples should serve to develop sustainable solutions to improve the situation of Roma families.”

The Commissioner also strongly recommends increasing the number of encampment sites available to Belgian Roma and Travellers and addressing the reported over-representation of foreign Roma children and children of Roma and Traveller background in specialised schools. It is also important to tackle more forcefully all instances of hate speech and discriminatory practices against these communities.

Mission statement: to strengthen the role of Civil Society in the Council of Europe

The Conference of INGOs brings together all the NGOs that enjoy participatory status at the Council of Europe. This voice of Civil Society in the CoE, represents a wide variety of organizations in many sectors, active in many countries and is committed to the agenda of the CoE: democracy, human rights and rule of law.

Traditionally the Conference focuses on (gender) equality and non-discrimination, freedom of expression and freedom of assembly. We keep in close contact and in dialogue with civil society in neighbouring areas of Europe.

Recently, the erosion of the space for civil society organisations and the breakdown of participative society have become matters of deep concern.

In the past year the Conference has undergone a substantial reform process, resulting in more focus on the needs of our INGOs and on the agenda of the other bodies of the CoE.

We invite you to come in contact with us, learn more about the Council of Europe and the Conference of INGOs and also about how you can contribute to our mission.

The Land of Might-Have-Been: Happyland’s future in doubt

Coinslot Bournemouth Happyland
Share this article

The future of a Bournemouth beachfront arcade remains in limbo, with the west side of Happyland fenced off for some weeks, including the venue’s ice-cream parlour.

Bournemouth Borough Council was in discussions with the landlord of Happyland, Meyrick Estate, over the long-term plan for the building earlier this summer.

Cllr John Beesley told local media that the “currently under-utilised” site was being analysed for its “viable redevelopment potential” as part of the council’s seafront strategy.

However the council has stated that no decision or even options regarding the site’s future have been discussed in recent months and are unlikely to be for some weeks. Meanwhile, Happyland has declined to comment on the issue.

Ironically, the building which currently houses the arcade, was built by the council 75 years ago as part of a large scale investment to improve facilities for bathers at the West Beach promenade.

The building was commissioned in the nick of time as the clouds of conflict were already massing over Europe, and the outbreak of the Second World War would make such public spending on leisure attractions unthinkable for years to come. Ironic then that the new worries concerning Happyland’s future coincide with Britain’s latest disillusionment with Europe – Brexit.

Housing crunch underpins solid European residential investment outlook

Colliers research shows substantial growth in European residential investment volumes in 2021

Europe’s fundamental mismatch between voracious housing demand and limited supply is driving massive investment growth in the residential sector and will continue to generate opportunities even amid geopolitical and economic uncertainties, according to a new report by Colliers, a global leader in commercial real estate services and investment management.

Colliers’ latest EMEA: European Living Snapshot finds that residential investment volumes surged 89% over the course of 2021, and for the first time crossed the 30% line as a proportion of real estate investment in Europe. Underlying this growth is what the report describes as “strategic levels of under-supply to meet urban household formation and growth.”

Luke Dawson, Managing Director Cross Border Capital Markets, commented, “Amid current economic volatility, this long-term imbalance makes the living sector attractive to capital seeking a defensive, contracyclical investment with a variety of routes to market. Build-to-rent (BtR), for example, is gaining in popularity due to the limited availability of existing stock, alongside investment into social and affordable housing.”

Another notable hotspot across much of Europe is purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA), particularly around universities with an international reputation that can attract students from near and far. “We’re seeing more activity concentrate on niche areas related to specific demographic factors,” said Damian Harrington, Head of Research, EMEA and Head of Global Capital Markets Research, “PBSA is attracting a lot of interest in markets like Italy, Spain and Central and Eastern Europe.”

One clear trend is that investor interest is expanding well beyond Europe’s largest and most famous urban areas, with lower-tier cities also seeing a notable uptick in activity in 2021. In this respect, the European market is beginning to mirror the US, where residential investment is increasingly targeting smaller cities such as Charleston, Tucson and San Antonio.

“The migration to tier-2 and -3 cities is increasingly evident in Europe’s more mature markets,” said Paddy Allen, National Capital Markets, UK at Colliers, “Places like Gothenburg and Manchester are attracting more attention as investors expand their search for yield.”

Report highlights

The range, scale and strategies for residential investment vary considerably across the globe. In Europe, the strongest growth markets have also been those benefiting from a significant share of residential investment. These include the Nordic cities of Stockholm, Malmo, Gothenburg and Copenhagen. Berlin tops the bill, Barcelona is a fast-moving market, with investment levels flourishing courtesy of an expanding residential sector, as are the likes of Madrid, Helsinki, Manchester and Dublin.

Mega-deal in Germany moves it to pole position

Vonovia’s takeover of Deutsche Wohnen in late 2021 created a housing giant with a portfolio of some 568,000 apartments. This cemented Berlin’s position as the fastest-growing residential investment market in Europe, already supported by Germany’s unusually high ratio of renters to owner-occupiers, and now potentially by an influx of new people seeking housing from Ukraine. Challenges ahead include tougher energy efficiency regulations and rising construction costs.

Strong investor appetite in France curbed by tight supply

France logged €7.4 billion of residential transactions in 2021, up 7% on the year before and double the total for 2019. While investor interest is strong, a very low asset turnover rate is limiting activity. One notable trend is the entry into the market of former social housing operators, which are taking sizeable stakes in new housing portfolios under development.

Ireland grapples with huge housing shortfall

Ireland is facing a housing crisis, with the supply of homes either for sale or for rent at record lows and home price inflation surging in 2021. This has inspired a bulging pipeline of BtR construction, supported by the forward funding or forward sale of units to domestic and international investors. New BtR blocks are exempt from a rise in the rate of stamp duty to 10% on the purchase of 10 or more residential units – a recognition of how important such investment is to solving the housing crunch.

Students and young renters key for Italy’s market

Italy is experiencing strong residential investment in cities with renowned universities, such as Bologna, and those with a large population of educated young professionals and high employment, such as Milan. Investors are entering a market that has traditionally been dominated by owner-occupiers and small private landlords; building better-quality housing stock offers an opportunity, but construction costs are rising sharply.

BtR shows strength in the UK

Over 14,500 BtR units were completed in 2021 in the UK, up 24% on the year before, while investment climbed 33% to a record €5.6 billion. The growth has led to fears over the possibility of oversupply. However, evidence from Manchester, the UK’s most mature BtR market, suggests otherwise, with rental inflation rates there among the highest in the country. BtR currently only accounts for 9% of total investment volumes into direct real estate in the UK, compared to 35% in the US, making investment saturation unlikely anytime soon.

School board OKs agreement with administrator’s association

By Dedra Cordle
Staff Writer

The South-Western City Schools District Board of Education has entered into a new management team agreement with the South-Western Administrators Association.

At the June 10 meeting, the board unanimously approved the agreement which will increase the base salary for approximately 100 certificated and classified administrators.

According to the three-year agreement, members of the association will receive a 2.5 percent increase in their base salary for each year of the contract. The agreement also increases the board’s contribution for family insurance coverage from 68 percent to 69 percent, and then from 69 percent to 70 percent beginning Oct. 1, 2020.

Board President Mindy Garverick said in a written statement that the board is “proud of our administrators as they continue to work cooperatively with our board of education to create a system that recognizes high performance.”

The approval of the management agreement, which will expire on June 30, 2022, comes on the heels of the board’s approval of a new collective bargaining agreement with the South-Western Education Association.

The board voted May 21 to approve a 2.5 percent increase in the base salary per year of more than 1,600 certificated staff members and also contribute more for family insurance coverage.

Superintendent Dr. Bill Wise commented on the close alignment between the agreements, stating that “we are pleased to have another three-year contract in place that allows us to focus on our work with students.”

The management team agreement also calls for the elimination of the Supervisor III salary classification, which Wise said would make the district more competitive as it pertains to attracting and retaining personnel.

Having recently aquired a TV capable of accessing on-line resources, we thought we’d have a go at using it to watch a film from LoveFilm’s service. We already subscribe to rent DVDs and BluRays from them so a large portion of their library is available to us online as well. We’ve never bothered in the past, as watching a film on the laptop isn’t my idea of fun.  But now it’s a few clicks to watch it on our main telly…

It was easy enough to register the TV against our account so that we can pick a film from the on-screen list which is propagated from the ones our account entitles us to access! That required a laptop connection to LoveFilm’s site of course but now that’s done, we can do the rest from the telly.

So we quickly settled on a film to watch and within seconds,  we were watching a ten second “test” film which just demonstrates the conneciton is working OK. Then it  loads the film and off we go…

… for about half an hour, then it stops and says “Network Down”.  It isn’t. Suspecting an online backup running on the office computer might be causing an issue, I go and stop that, whilst Liz re-starts the film and finds where we’d got to. And it’s fine for ten minutes then…

… off it goes again.

Now we live in the sticks and will never get 24mbits broadband which your average council house dweller deems essential and insists should only cost a fiver a month. But we get a pretty good 2mbits, and it almost never goes down. I checked the router recently and it had been online for over a year. And, in fact, we have two such connections to the house with different networks behind them, as it’s essential for the business. So I know we’re not short of bandwidth and that the connection is not dropping.

After twenty minutes more of re-starting the film I finally set the sniffers on it to see what was going on. The “help” on LoveFilm’s website is all aimed at a very low level and the information to solve the problem just isn’t available.

But solve it I did. So lest you find yourself in the same predicament, read on.

As I mentioned, we have a dual WAN connection. We use a Sonicwall firewall which has dual WAN connections, and one DSL link is connected to each port. The system can be st up in a number of ways but we have it set to share the workload out evenly across the two links.  Should either link fail, the other will take up the entire load until the first is fixed.

Some services are not happy being “split” like this and the Sonicwall has tools to cope. It also has connection monitoring tools so I was able to work out WHAT the LF service was doing.

LF doesn’t stream the film. Rather, every three or four minutes, it connects to a server and downloads the next segment of the film. I say “a” server because it doesn’t use just one. Each time it connects, it picks one presumably via round-robin DNS or similar. So each “chunk” of the film can, and clearly does, come from a different server.  The port used is 443, so there’s no way for the firewall to recognise this access as other than an HTTPS connection.  And when the film fails, I see zero bytes returned from the server. So my assumption is that the LF system doesn’t like the request for the next film chunk coming from a different IP address. Rather than logging in each time and confirming I’m still entitled to be accessing the server and asking for a section of the film, it’s just remembering the IP address I came from for the previous segment, and if I appear from a different IP address, it just ignores me. The time taken between the requests, and the fact that the requests are sent to *different* LF servers each time, means that the Sonicwall doesn’t recognise them as part of the same “service”, if it did, it would’ve automatically tried to keep each request on the same WAN port.

So I set the Sonicwall up to allow the TV to use just the first WAN connection, and never to “split” the traffic from the TV over the two networks. Since then, the film has run smoothly!!

I note this operating method doesn’t apply to all services. BBC’s “iPlayer” opens to channels to a server and holds them open whilst the program plays. This would’ve worked fine, as once open the IP connection stays on the same WAN port!

So – in summary – if you have a dual-WAN network and you want to watch films using LoveFilm’s on-line service, you will need to set your load balance system up to connect you via just ONE fixed WAN port. If you don’t know how, speak to the supplier of your load balance equipment.  And if you’re trying to watch on your laptop or office computer, you may find your company IT dept are not interested!

Model Highlights

The Honda Pilot is offered in five different trim levels: EX-L, Special Edition, Touring, Elite and Black Edition. The key difference between these models is the range of convenience features and luxury appointments offered. Across the entire lineup, powertrain offerings are essentially the same, with front-wheel-drive or 4-wheel-drive variants of each model. All Pilots are powered by a 280-horsepower 3.5L V6 i-VTEC engine that utilizes variable cylinder management. To save fuel, the engine runs on fewer cylinders when cruising or coasting. This V6 is the workhorse of Honda's lineup and allows smooth, strong acceleration, even with a heavy load. Honda's 4-wheel drive system is called VTM-4 (variable torque management). It automatically sends more power to the rear wheels when needed. For snowy driveways or muddy trails where a slow, steady grip -- and perhaps even a little slip -- would help, the system provides a Lock mode that works in first or second gear, up to 18 mph. The Pilot is laid out more like a car than a truck, and that comes through with better handling, as well as a better on-road ride than might be expected from a big SUV. The rear multi-link, front-strut layout is close to what's offered in Honda's car lineup, while 4-wheel disc brakes, a variable-displacement steering pump and low rolling-resistance tires provide relatively lean performance on the road, with just a bit of added ruggedness. The rear suspension is mounted on a subframe, which helps isolate noise and vibration and acoustic glass helps keep out wind and road noise. Inside, the Pilot's three rows of seating are laid out well enough to accommodate adults in all three rows, although the tallest passengers are best in the front two rows. The second and third rows have folding seatbacks and feature a 60/40 split, with cargo volume expanding to 87 cubic feet behind the front seats if everything's folded down. Standard equipment on the Pilot includes LED headlights and daytime running lights, LED front fog lamps, heated front seats, separate rear HVAC controls, an 8-inch touchscreen interface and Apple CarPlay\Android Auto connectivity, a 7-speaker audio system with a subwoofer, four USB ports, adaptive cruise control and remote keyless entry. EX-L models also include leather front seats with driver seat memory, a power-adjustable passenger seat, leather steering wheel, a HomeLink garage door transmitter, and a power rear hatch. Touring models get an upgrade to 20-inch alloy wheels, a power sunroof, an upgraded sound system with 10 speakers, 10.20-inch rear monitor, voice-activated navigation system with Honda HD Digital Traffic, CabinTalk intercom system, two wireless headphones, heated rear seats, HondaLink internet access and emergency SOS and front/rear parking sensors. The top-of-the-line Elite adds rain-sensing wipers, heated and ventilated seats, second-row captain's chairs and a heated steering wheel. Black Edition adds blacked out exterior trim pieces and red interior accents to the Elite trim level. The Honda Sensing systems package, which is standard across all trims, has a suite of safety-oriented systems that includes a lane keeping assist, blind spot warning, forward collision mitigation, rear collision warning and pedestrian detection prevention.

LeBron James faced a lot of criticism for comments he made about Daryl Morey and the NBA's ongoing China controversy. Many in the NBA world took him to task for siding with China over Morey, who had expressed his support for the pro-democracy Hong Kong protesters. Memphis Grizzlies swingman Andre Iguodala, however, doesn't think the criticism James has received is entirely fair.

Speaking on Ebro in the Morning, Iguodala explained how he feels about the whole situation as someone who saw it unfold from the sidelines. "It was interesting, because if you keep up with the tech space you see this all the time," he said at the 10:30 point of the interview. He went on to explain how complicated the relationship between Western companies and China can be, and as such it can be difficult for people to have a certain stance if they don't have the full picture.

"It's very hard to make like a very comfortable, very confident opinion about it," he continued. "It's tough... The thing that bothered me the most was when we make our statements about being home, about being American and issues we have in America, it's like, 'Shut up and dribble.'" This is a reference to Fox News host Laura Ingraham's infamous comment in which she criticized the Lakers player for his political statements, which many perceived as racist. Ingraham, who is an avid Donald Trump supporter, said she was not interested in hearing about politics from "someone who gets paid $100 million a year to bounce a ball."

"It's interesting in this situation with China, they're shoving a camera in our face and be like, 'No you can't say no comment we need you to speak on this,'" Iguodala continued, highlighting what he believes is a double standard. "They ready to attack LeBron for making a statement because they don't like his statement, they feel like he should have took another stance. But when he's home and he makes a stance about... and it's like, 'No this is not your place to make that statement.' That was just mindblowing. That's what bothered me the most."

Iguodala added that LeBron is "in a difficult situation," and it's unreasonable to expect him to have a statement that will make all parties happy. "What I got from the interview was... They had to go over there and play," he said.

CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) 003 vs. 004: What’s the Difference?

See how CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) CAS-004 compares to CAS-003.

Advanced IT Pro working on laptopIT certifications show employers that candidates have the knowledge and skills they need to do the job, and they help IT pros advance their careers. As cybersecurity has become a critical function, cybersecurity certifications are among the most popular IT certifications globally.

The CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification is a vendor-neutral credential and internationally targeted validation of advanced-level cybersecurity skills and knowledge.

The security architect and senior security engineer skills covered by CASP+ help companies comply with regulations, such as PCI-DSS and NIST 800-53 Risk Management Framework (RMF), which require IT pros to identify and mitigate enterprise risk. CASP+ is approved under the Department of Defense (DoD) Directive 8140/8570.01-M and under ANSI/ISO standard 17024.

IT Jobs Related to CASP+

The latest version of CASP+ (CAS-004) launched in October 2021. CompTIA updates its certifications every three years so IT pro skills are relevant and up to date on the latest technologies.

When CompTIA updates exams, subject matter experts (SMEs) from the industry participate in workshops to write and review the content, ensuring the exam domains, objectives and questions validate the skills needed on the job today.

Cybersecurity experts from the following companies contributed to the update of the CASP+ exam:

  • AT&T Cybersecurity
  • Lockheed Martin
  • ExxonMobil
  • John Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory
  • U.S. Navy Center for Information Dominance
  • Target Corp.
  • General Dynamics IT (GDIT)
  • Tanium
  • Ricoh
  • Splunk
  • SecureWorks
  • aeSolutions Industrial Cybersecurity

Read more about the CompTIA exam development process.

Individuals who hold CASP+ have proven they can design and implement effective cybersecurity solutions on complex enterprise networks. This cybersecurity certification communicates the mastery-level skills of an enterprise-level security architect and senior security engineer. IT pros who pass the CASP+ performance exam can design, assess, mitigate and operate a secure enterprise network and lead the technical teams responsible for these tasks.

The primary job roles for CASP+ (CAS-004) are similar to those for CAS-003, as the core skills requirements for these jobs have not significantly changed over the past three years:

As cybersecurity architecture job roles are tasked with identifying cyber risk and mitigating it across an enterprise network, the following job roles can also benefit from a CASP+ certification:

CASP+ CAS-003 vs. CAS-004

CompTIA is constantly reviewing the content of its certifications to ensure they address the latest technologies and meet the needs of the industry. The previous CASP+ exam objectives have been updated to be more reflective of cybersecurity architecture and engineering; endpoint security; governance, risk and compliance skills and how to assess an enterprise’s cybersecurity readiness. There’s also more focus on leading teams to design, troubleshoot and implement enterprise-wide cybersecurity solutions.

CASP+ Exam Domains

The exam domains covered in CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CAS-004) are not vastly different from those in CAS-003, as they are still relevant to current job roles, but you will see some slight changes.

The exam domains have been rearranged to cover four topics instead of five, as shown in the following table:

CAS-004 Exam Domains

CAS-003 Domain Equivalency

1.0 Security Architecture (29%)

1.0 Enterprise Security Architecture (25%)

2.0 Security Operations (30%)

2.0 Enterprise Security Operations (20%)

3.0 Security Engineering and Cryptography (26%)

3.0 Technical Integration of Enterprise Security (23%)

4.0 Governance, Risk and Compliance (15%)

4.0 Risk Management (19%)

5.0 Redistributed across domains as needed

5.0 Research, Development and Collaboration (13%)

The reorganization of the exam domains results in 80% of the topics being similar to the previous version and 20% of them getting updated to include the following:

  • Security Architecture: Expanded coverage to analyze security requirements in hybrid networks to work toward an enterprise-wide, zero-trust security architecture with advanced, secure cloud and virtualization solutions
  • Security Operations: Expanded emphasis on newer techniques addressing advanced threat management, vulnerability management, risk mitigation, incident response tactics and digital forensics analysis
  • Security Engineering and Cryptography: Expanded to focus on advanced cybersecurity configurations for endpoint security controls, enterprise mobility, cloud/hybrid environments and enterprise-wide PKI and cryptographic solutions
  • Governance, Risk and Compliance: Expanded to support advanced techniques to prove an organization’s overall cybersecurity resiliency metric and compliance to regulations, such as CMMC, PCI-DSS, SOX, HIPAA, FISMA, NIST and CCPA

CASP+ Exam Objectives

The new CASP+ (CAS-004) includes more exam objectives. In fact, CAS-004 has 28 exam objectives versus the 19 in CAS-003. The purpose of this update is to break down the larger objectives found on CAS-003 into multiple objectives to improve instructional design.

The new exam objectives focus on the most up-to-date and current skills needed for the following tasks:

  • Architect, engineer, integrate and implement secure solutions across complex environments to support a resilient enterprise
  • Use monitoring, detection, incident response and automation to proactively support ongoing security operations in an enterprise environment
  • Apply security practices to cloud, on-premises, endpoint and mobile infrastructure, while considering cryptographic technologies and techniques
  • Consider the impact of governance, risk and compliance requirements throughout the enterprise

This is equivalent to at least 10 years of general hands-on IT experience, with at least 5 of those years being broad hands-on security experience. CASP+ is recommended to follow CompTIA Security+, CompTIA PenTest+ and CompTIA CySA+ on the CompTIA Cybersecurity Career Pathway.

As you use the exam objectives to prepare for your test, note that they are not exhaustive of everything you may be tested on. Consider the exam objectives stem (the heading) as your item to study and the bulleted lists as examples of some of the things that might be covered. CompTIA is constantly reviewing exam content and updating questions to ensure relevance and exam integrity.

How CASP+ Evolves with the Industry

In a field like cybersecurity, where the job is continually evolving, CompTIA exam domains need to reflect what’s happening in the industry right now. The following table explains why we updated the CASP+ exam domains and how they relate to current job requirements.

Exam Domain

How It Applies to the Job

1.0 Security Architecture

Includes designing resilient enterprise cybersecurity systems to withstand the next attack.

Design architectures such as zero-trust and software-defined networking (SDN) provide resiliency solutions.

2.0 Security Operations

Includes SOC processes to reduce risk such as security data analytics and security automation.

Automated attacks are used by bad actors; IT pros must fight back with automated incident response in the enterprise SOC.

3.0 Security Engineering and Cryptography

Includes applying secure configurations to enterprise mobility and endpoint security controls.

Endpoint security across the enterprise, including mobility security, are proven techniques to secure all systems.

4.0 Governance, Risk and Compliance

Includes applying appropriate risk strategies and compliance frameworks to an enterprise network.

Security architects must design and operate systems that comply to regulations such as PCI-DSS, NIST and CCMC.

How to Train for CASP+

It may seem like CASP+ covers a lot of ground, but don’t worry, we’ve got your back. One major difference between CAS-003 and CAS-004 is the official training solutions available. For the first time, CASP+ (CAS-004) will have a full suite of training solutions available when the new exam launches.

‘Leave Politics To Politics’: Founder Of Anti-Woke Investment Firm Sounds Off On Facebook

The founder of an investment firm seeking to counter “woke capitalism” weighed in on Facebook employees complaining about the company’s policy prohibiting discussion on abortion during a Fox News appearance Sunday.

“If people are consistent about keeping politics out of the workplace, I’m a fan of that,” Vivek Ramaswamy, founder of Strive Asset Management, said on “Fox and Friends Sunday.” “That would fit the bill very well if COO Sheryl Sandberg had not a made a one-sided statement on Facebook’s own platform about this heated political issue.”

An engineer at Facebook posted Saturday on LinkedIn that the company had prohibited discussions regarding the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which found there was no constitutional right to abortion, despite the fact that Sandberg had made a public Facebook post condemning the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade Friday.

“The Supreme Court’s ruling jeopardizes the health and the lives of millions of girls and women across the country,” Sandberg wrote.

Ramaswamy criticized the decision as hypocritical.

“The top brass was weighing in at Facebook while they were telling their everyday employees not to,” Ramaswamy said.

In a 6-3 ruling, the high court upheld a Mississippi law that prohibited abortions after the 15th week of pregnancy and found the Constitution did not provide a right to abortion, effectively overturning Roe v. Wade.

“I think it’s fine for companies to set a cultural norm that they don’t want their employees to be distracted by internal political bickering, but they need to apply that standard evenhandedly,” Ramaswamy told TheDCNF. “The problem is that most of them don’t.”

Ramaswamy founded Strive Asset Management in May to encourage corporations to remain politically neutral on divisive issues.

“We want iconic American brands like Disney, Coca-Cola and Exxon, and U.S. tech giants like Twitter, Facebook, Amazon and Google to deliver high-quality products that improve our lives, not controversial political ideologies that divide us,” Ramaswamy said in a May release.

Sandberg and Facebook did not immediately respond to requests for comment from The Daily Caller News Foundation.

HomeNewsNotes from the sticks: Menace in a mink coat

Notes from the sticks: Menace in a mink coat

While Notes from the Sticks is taking a summer break, we are repeating some earlier articles from the series. This was first published on July 25, 2020.

I KNOW it’s not a laughing matter, but I found it hard to suppress a snort when I read this in the i newspaper on Monday [July 19, 2020]:

‘Heartbreaking scenes are playing out at fur farms across the Netherlands as a million mink are culled.’

What does the cretin who wrote this think would happen to the mink otherwise – become much-loved family pets, perhaps?

If you want heartbreaking, how about the conditions in which the mink are kept at fur farms? The females spend their lives in tiny wire cages with hardly enough room to turn round and give birth to five or six young every year. These are slaughtered at the age of about nine months.

There is plenty of evidence of cruelty, which I am not going to detail here. Being culled might almost be preferable to such an existence.

Fur farming was banned in the UK in 2000, but it is estimated that there are 110,000 mink living wild in Britain. They are American mink (Neovison vison), imported when fur farms opened here in 1929. At the peak of the business in the 1950s, there were at least 400 farms in the UK, not to mention unregistered back garden enterprises. Feral mink were established to be breeding by 1956, and I presume the first few were mainly the result of escapes. However in the 1980s and 1990s animal rights activists broke into a number of farms and released thousands of the animals. Here is a sample BBC report from 1998 which mentions a total of 15,000 released mink. Even if most were rounded up, run over on the roads or shot, there would have been plenty to start breeding.

This is a thorny issue for the animal rights lobby, which plays down or ignores the role its adherents played in boosting mink numbers in the wild. The problem is that mink are voracious and opportunistic predators which will eat almost anything they can catch including rabbits, small mammals, chickens, ducks, moorhens, fish, frogs and invertebrates. Apparently they have a high metabolic rate and need a lot of food. They have had a particularly significant impact on water voles (Arvicola amphibius, Ratty in Wind in the Willows).

This is what the People’s Trust for Endangered Species says: ‘Water voles have undergone one of the most serious declines of any wild mammal in Britain during the 20th century. The intensification of agriculture in the 1940s and 1950s caused the loss and degradation of habitat, but the most rapid period of decline was during the 1980s and 1990s as American mink spread. Between 1989 and 1998, the population fell by almost 90 per cent.’ (The current estimated population is 875,000.)

You will note that there is no mention of releases by activists in the 1980s and 1990s. Must be a coincidence. Other organisations take the same line, for example the Wildlife Trusts mention ‘predation by American mink which were brought to the UK for fur farming’. The League Against Cruel Sports goes so far as to say mink need protecting. Anything to avoid acknowledging that animal rights fanatics deliberately and knowingly allowed a voracious non-native predator to cause havoc amongst native species.

After the end of fur farming, the mink population was controlled to a certain extent by hunting with hounds but this was outlawed in 2005. Since then the mink have largely had it all their own way.

I have never seen a mink, but they are active in this area of Lancashire and I may have had a brush with them. [Warning: the following may be distressing.] A few years ago several of my juvenile Hermann’s tortoises were horribly attacked within a few days of each other, the tops of their shells taken off and the insides scooped out. This happened even though they were in (as I thought) a secure enclosure, but I have since found out that mink can squeeze through very narrow gaps. I used one of the corpses as a container for rat poison and left it out in the open. The whole thing soon disappeared and I have not had a problem since but I am still nervous and have improved the security of the enclosure. Other culprits could have been rats, but I don’t think rats would have been strong enough (and this is not their method of attack – they go for limbs).

Footnote: In January this year I found a dead mink at the side of the road. As I wrote here, I was only sorry there weren’t two, then I could have had a pair of luxe mittens.

HomeNewsThe Archbishop of Woke slanders his own flock

The Archbishop of Woke slanders his own flock

HOW didn’t we guess till the Archbishop of Canterbury told us? The Church of England is ‘deeply, institutionally’ racist, according to the Most Rev Justin Welby.

I wonder how all the curates, vicars, bishops, lay preachers, Sunday school teachers, vergers, churchwardens and other active members of the C of E’s congregations felt about his smearing of their collective character?

But the mood of self-flagellation is in the air. His Grace’s delayed but intense bout of anguish and remorse at the General Synod last week was prompted by a motion, which the church’s national assembly backed unanimously, to ‘lament’ and apologise for both conscious and unconscious racism in the church since the arrival of the Windrush generation in the UK.

Justin Welby must have been taking lessons on arch wokeness from Joaquin Phoenix when he was named Best Actor, appropriately for Joker, at the Baftas a couple of weeks ago.

Welby was quite dramatic. ‘I’m ashamed of our history and I’m ashamed of our failure,’ he said. ‘I’m ashamed of our lack of witness to Christ. I’m ashamed of my lack of urgent voice to the church . . . It’s shaming as well as shocking.’

He had advantages as a white, straight, educated man, he said, adding: ‘I’m not ashamed of those advantages; I’m ashamed of not knowing I had them. And I think that’s where we probably need to start.’

All that was missing were the props – a hair shirt and a lash.

Welby’s outburst prompted political commentator Darren Grimes to tweet this:

He makes a good point about the fashion for white privilege confessionals. An upsetting story about the racism experienced by the family of Doreen Browne, who had been barred from a London Anglican church in 1961 ‘due to the plain fact of the colour of their black skin’, put Welby ‘almost beyond words’.

‘There is no doubt,’ he asserted, that ‘when we look at our own Church we are still deeply institutionally racist’.

Whatever the sins of the past, it is quite a leap to make this charge of the present, 60 years later. It is more than a pity that the Archbishop saw no need to validate his claim, and simply assumed it. The fact is that no evidence has been produced as yet that the C of E does have any special problem with racism, and certainly not ‘deep institutional’ racism. There is no official church report either setting it out, or its extent or the recommendations of what should be done. Such a report does not exist.

‘Institutional racism’ was defined in the 1999 Macpherson report on the Metropolitan Police as ‘the collective failure of an organisation to provide an appropriate and professional service to people because of their colour, culture, or ethnic origin’. This does not describe the present-day C of E, which typically provides an exemplary service to people of all backgrounds.

Despite this, the church’s ‘hostile environment’ must be transformed into a ‘hospitable, welcoming one’, Welby announced, without specifying which churches exactly he had in mind. They are not any that I know.

My own experience of the Church of England across a variety of contexts over several decades has been one of people of all different backgrounds living side by side as disciples of Christ. There has been no exclusion at all that I have seen or been aware of, and indeed it has felt at times like a foretaste of heaven, where ‘saints from every tribe and language and people and nation’ unite in worship of the One. I have seen not one sign of a deep institutional racism.

Nonetheless, Welby called for ‘radical and decisive’ action to put an end to it. This is to include new ‘basic rules’ such as having ethnic minorities represented on appointment panels. ‘It doesn’t work when long lists are simply one colour,’ he said.

Whatever the problem is, or isn’t, then, the solution is to be some form of racial diversity targets or quotas, which is a bad idea for a number of reasons.

It achieves the opposite of what is intended in terms of ending racial discrimination and improving race relations, as it involves relating to people in racial terms and treating people differently on the basis of race – which by any normal understanding is racist, divisive and unfair, as well as deeply condescending

Relating to people as individuals and brothers and sisters in Christ, not being concerned with racial distinctions, is surely what the Archbishop of Woke should be focusing on.

But no. Research on the impact of historic racism in the church in terms of members lost and church closures is the order of the day. These are massive counterfactuals that will be impossible to quantify but the pursuit of which is almost bound to fan the flames of racial grievances – and all quite unnecessarily.

Should the presence of ethnically-based churches or the supposed ‘under-representation’ of ethnic minorities in the C of E be taken as evidence of the church’s failure in this regard? No. There is no reason to assume racism explains either different patterns of attendance or why churches sometimes form along ethnic lines. Many factors are involved: people naturally form communities according to things they hold in common, including ethnic and cultural heritage. Christians should and do aim for unity across racial divisions, but this doesn’t require all churches to have exactly the same ethnic mix.

Besides which, the C of E is already training lots of ethnic minority clergy. In 2018, around 8 per cent of new clergy recruits were from ethnic minorities, well above the reported ethnic proportion of C of E ‘core congregation’, which at last count (in 2007) stood at 4.7 per cent. How is this ‘institutionally racist’?

The C of E has some major challenges ahead in the coming years, many of its own making. Institutional racism is not one of them. Welby does a grave disservice to his Church and its standing in the community to suggest, without evidence, that it does.

HomeNewsThe great recycling racket

The great recycling racket

I AM extremely sceptical of most green initiatives, and tend to think that if something appears too good to be true, it usually is. Hence my stance on recycling, which is that while the aim might be laudable, the way it is carried out is bad for the environment.

First let’s delve in to what happens to our rubbish (or garbage as we say across the pond here in Canada). Daily, citizens in wealthier nations diligently separate their waste and put it into dedicated containers. The EU has lofty targets for recycling and the UK reports recycling rates hovering around 40-50 per cent. But research in 2015 by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a charitable group that promotes environmentally-friendly business models, found that 40 years after the introduction of the recycling symbol on plastic packaging, only 14 per cent of such packaging was collected globally and only 2 per cent actually recycled. What about the rest? The Foundation’s Rob Opsomer explains in this Sky News video (jump to 7:16)  that approximately 14 per cent is burned, another 40 per cent goes to landfill, and one-third escapes collection and pollutes the environment.

As far as Britain is concerned, up to two-thirds of plastic refuse is sent roughly 6,000 miles overseas (with all the emissions that entails) to Far Eastern countries such as China, with dubious environmental practices and dated green technology. Most of it is low-quality refuse or mixed, dirty and contaminated plastics. In 2018 China closed its doors by implementing rigorous restrictions on the import of international waste under a policy called ‘National Sword’.  However, there are plenty of other third world countries interested in the recycling industry at any cost, such as Thailand and Malaysia which have stepped up to accept the waste.

I identify three major ethical dilemmas regarding shipping rubbish indiscriminately to third world countries.

First, where does the refuse go that cannot be recycled or reused in any way? In China, there are entire cities of waste, some of which  could probably have been recycled with proper green technology and care but given the facilities available it is fit only for landfill. It can end up in rivers and oceans, polluting waters that historically were relied upon for fishing but where now no aquatic life survives. Roughly 8.75million tonnes of plastic waste reach the oceans annually.  Other waste is burned in the open air, causing deforestation and wrecking air quality, exposing people and wildlife living in surrounding areas to toxic fumes and chemicals.

Second is the health and safety of the people sorting the refuse, or living among it. The recycling industry gives employment to thousands of people in third world countries, but they are sorting through garbage which even includes biohazard bags.

The environmental impacts include Erin Brockovich-type health concerns due to the air and land pollution. The people of these countries report ill effects including coughing, a strange smell permeating the air and poor air quality due to the open-air burning.

The third ethical dilemma is that the countries taking the waste use polluting technology to break down plastics, and you can bet frequent inspections and monitoring are not done. The way the refuse is treated may be even worse for the environment than if it had been kept in the country of origin. Even worse, the countries that initially agreed to accept the refuse experienced massive influxes of plastic waste leading to an increase in illegal dumping and open-air burning. Malaysia banned the import of plastics after experiencing the detrimental effects. However, the system exploits countries with fewer restrictions (leading to illegal factories, dumping, lack of monitoring and inability to prosecute violators). In these countries, importing may be illegal but it is so lucrative that it continues.

Recycling is a billion-dollar industry and the messages about recycling being a clean industry are promulgated by the very producers of plastics and the retailers that sell them to us. It is beneficial for them to create the illusion that you can buy and indulge as much as you want because all your rubbish will magically be used again without any impact to the environment!

Plastic waste production will continue to soar. Out of sight, out of mind, as long as it’s not on our doorstep. We don’t know if our plastics will be burnt, buried or just left to pollute the land. Truthfully, a lot of our recycling is just sitting in foreign countries for months and years. The aim should be to reduce what we produce and incentivise and modernise local recycling instead of dumping our refuse on other countries to be incinerated. Even if it is actually recycled, the consequences contribute to air and water pollution – ruining water sources, damaging forests, causing health issues to locals, etc.

It is far more beneficial to reduce single use and non-essential plastics, reuse when possible and develop alternatives. I have never understood why items purchased in-store or online have so much packaging; it seems like something producers and retailers need to work on, not the average person. Next, I disregard the recycling symbol as irrelevant (since now we know what happens to our recycling) and do not really recycle much. Finally, I like to buy reusable products such as mesh produce bags, grocery bags, cotton make-up removing pads and Tupperware. And (although I am not the most domestic), cooking from scratch uses far less plastic. A return to more traditional roles would actually decrease plastic! However, I doubt if the left would enjoy that angle . . .

P.S. In Canada, we will be banning the plastic grocery bag. However, statistics show that the plastic bag is reused 90 per cent of the time! Why are they ending up in landfills and horrifying the environmentalists? Because they are being reused as garbage bags (duh!) When these free or cheap store bags are banned, people will have to go and buy more expensive garbage bags at the grocery store to dispose of their refuse, changing absolutely nothing but increasing the price tag. How ridiculous! Start buying stocks in plastic bag companies now, folks!

Could Canadian NHL Teams Be Required To Play 2021 In The USA?

The Public Health Agency of Canada says that teams must follow provincial protocol.

Edmonton Oilers v Chicago Blackhawks Photo by Jeff Vinnick/Getty Images

The Edmonton Oilers (and the six other clubs in Canada) might be headed south of the border for the 2021 NHL season.

I was planning on hearing from NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman sometime yesterday about a return to play in 2021. When that got kicked to Friday, I wondered if something had come up. Hours ago, we find out that the NHL hasn’t reached an agreement with clubs in Canadian provinces on a return to play, which is a pretty significant development.

That’s a hell of a wrench thrown into for a league that’s trying to get back up and running in less than a month. The solution that’s being passed around is even crazier than the NHL not having all their ducks in a row: having the Canadian clubs play in the States. This would likely also scuttle the proposed “Canadian Division”, otherwise known as the temporary realignment for 2021 that would keep 7 teams in Canada to avoid any cross-border travel during the Covid-19 pandemic.

I’m not going to argue that the NHL should even be playing right now; I’d rather argue that they absolutely shouldn’t. Covid cases are spiking all over the US and Canada right now, and the NHL doesn’t seem too keen on “bubbling up” like they did for the playoffs that began this past August. Even with all this in the back of your mind, you’ve got to ask yourself why this sort of thing didn’t get sorted out earlier. How are we supposedly less than a month away from the return of hockey and we don’t know whether or not seven of the clubs have places to play in their home cities?

So let’s play along and suggest that none of the NHL cities in Canada will be available for their respective clubs. Now where do seven teams play? Are there seven cities who can host seven NHL clubs? What are you going to do, stick the Jets in Atlanta again? The Canadiens in Kansas City? Do the Senators pick up and play in whatever building the Islanders aren’t using that night?

And if they can, how does it all come together in a few short weeks?

This absolutely screams NHL. Like a draft lottery that has a placeholder team win, It’s got their fingerprints all over it.

Again, you can easily make the argument that teams really shouldn’t be playing during a global pandemic. It’s a way easier argument to make compared to having seven franchises from Canada find temporary homes in the USA because NHL teams need to flout the country’s health agency in order to play.

But shouldn’t this have been taken care of already? Didn’t anyone know that this was going to be a problem a month, four months, or two weeks ago?

How to Sell an Off-Market Property Listing in Florida

A traditional property listing isn’t the only way to sell your house in Florida. As the population pushes away from larger cities, along with a pool of skimming over the rental phase typically experienced in earlier adulthood, opting for the benefits of more permanent housing with recreational amenities and a more home-based lifestyle driving the current seller’s market. Off-market or pocket listings aren’t marketed to the general public, add the allure of grabbing an exclusive opportunity for buyers, and may garner a higher sales price.

When you sell off-market, you control who knows your home is for sale and when they see it. There are far fewer showings by the very nature of being private, and the buyers who know about the off-market listing are likely to be much more serious about the property.  Listing your property off-market also tends to create an act now or never feeling.

We will share the inside scoop on how you can sell an off-market property listing in Florida.

Real estate agents love off-market listings because they can market the property exclusively to select clients and collect whatever commission you have negotiated in the contract. Additionally, because other agents in the Florida market are unaware of the listing, they don’t have to split the commission with anyone else. They will earn the other side of the commission because they are bringing the buyer. You can avoid commissions altogether when you sell an off-market property listing in Florida to a professional buyer like those at CORE Capital.

Prepping or Repairs

Most buyers seek to move into their new home as soon as possible. If your home is older or maintenance and repairs are lacking, you as the seller must worry about passing the inspection and making repairs out of pocket before closing or taking a deep discount off of the asking price. Preparing the home for the showings ahead and making updates is costly. When you sell an off-market property listing in Florida through a direct sale with a company like CORE Capital, we buy homes as-is, so there is no more need to worry about repairs or even cleaning up. CORE Capital takes on all the risk.

Agent Fees

Many agents also charge a fee for transaction processing and other expenses that agents may hide. When you sell your off-market property listing in Florida to a professional buyer like those at CORE Capital, they charge no agent fees. There will be no hidden fees to pay at closing; the offer will clearly outline how much cash you’ll receive at the closing.

When properties are listed traditionally through the MLS, potential buyers can track the number of days the property is on the market. A great many days passing indicates to buyers that something is wrong with the property that the listing doesn’t disclose, typically resulting in bargain-basement offers, if any. The number of days an off-market property has been for sale is unknown to the buyer, which is one of the motivating factors behind off-market listings. Instead, sell fast to a direct sales company like CORE Capital, closing on your private listing can be in a matter of days or whenever best suits your needs.

CORE Capital makes it simple and straightforward to sell an off-market property listing in Florida. We make the process easy! When you get an offer from CORE Capital, we will handle everything, and we can guarantee your home will close fast, often in just a few days. Whether your home is older and needs repairs or you want to limit the number of strangers who come through your home, why not reach out to CORE Capital and learn more about your options with no obligation. Send us a message or call CORE Capital at (561) 584-8008.

Locals in Ballyvolane have been left disgusted after numerous occasions of illegal dumpings have been reported in the area.

Residents in The Glen have said that the dumping has been going on for a number of weeks and even though they have contacted the council, nothing has been done.

CorkBeo spoke to one local who said that people are dumping rubbish in gardens and they have seen rats running around in front of their house.

"My neighbour is in hopsital and while he has been there someone has been dumping rubbish outside his house..

"There are bags of clothes and food just left there and now there are rats running around as well.

"I have an elderly parent living with me and we are afraid to even leave the dog out in the garden".

The local woman said that rubbish including cans, washing machines and domestic waste has been dumped in the green area of the estate.

"People are adding more and more rubbish to it and then trying to set it on fire, I just don't understand their mentality.

"It has been going on now for five or six weeks and both I and my neighbours have contacted the council numerous times.

"They sent a group of men up in a van, one of them got out and just kicked one of the appliances and when I asked him were they going to clean it he just said 'maybe, we will send someone down' but no one has arrived".

Since CorkBeo spoke to the woman she said that a number of councillors have contacted her to say that they have asked for the matter to be looked at with a matter of urgency.

Learning outcomes

The course will provide the conceptual, methodological and cultural basis to analyze and study the
“ICTs Criminal Law”, cybercrimes and computer-related crimes and the “technological investigations”, developing the capacity in using correct and specific language and discourse. Students will gain, following this method and in subiecta materia, legal and technical expertise both on substantive criminal law and procedure criminal law levels.
The course will study the new illegal phenomena related to the use of the new technologies and Internet, also through social networks (for example: online defamation, frauds - connected to online banking, phishing, identity theft - privacy violation, copyright infringement, child pornography, child grooming, cyberterrorism, cyber laundering).
The course will analyze, taking into consideration real cases, the applicable criminal law, in particular for
illegal activities down to the new concept of “cybercrime”, which is a transnational and global crime.
For this reason it’s necessary to analyze the most important international and European legal sources (Cybercrime Convention and Lanzarote Convention of the Council of Europe, European directives on: attack against information systems, child pornography, intellectual property, e-commerce and privacy)
Special attention will be given to the Internet Service Providers criminal liability, subject of recent European Court of Justice and Italian Corte di Cassazione judgements (cases Google, Netlog etc.).
In this area particular attention will be paid to the need to regulate the collection of data and the digital evidence, which are becoming increasingly important for the detection and prosecution of every criminal offence, not only “cybercrime”.

At the end of the course the student has to show to have acquired the following skills:
● knowledge of the specific technical language in the context of crimes falling into to the category of cybercrime
● knowledge of the methods and tools for the determination of cybercrimes, with specific reference to current regulations and concrete cases
● knowledge of the legal consequences, both criminal and civil, of the crimes generally ascribable to the cyber-crime area.

                                       chorus starting on proud )
         G                C             G
Well my old man says the Woodstock generation
         C                G
Found a way to make this nation
     Em                A            D
Open up it's eyes and take a look around
        C            D      G              C
And he says my generation, ain't good for nothing
G               C               D          C        G
I can think of somthing, so I thought I'd write it down
                C                            G
  So here's to hair gel, hanging out at the health spa
          D                       C  D
  Using condom sense and watching LA Law
             C               D
  Here's to drum machines, stoned-washed jeans
  G                Em

  Oh my generation, my generation, my generation should be proud
We were raised up in the hallowed halls
Of half a million shopping malls
And there ain't any price that we're too proud to pay
We'll buy anything from diet Sprite, too 1,000 points of light
Well I'll admit we're not that bright, but I'm proud any way
Chorus:  (Same as above, only we're watching Arsenio Hall now and the
my generation line gets changed with the stops. )
  Oh my generation, my generation, my generation got
  My generation, my generation, my generation
  My generation, my generation, my generation should be proud
Outro:  G  C  G  C  G  Em  A  D  D  G  (this starts on proud)

The collection and dissemination of genome-wide mRNA expression profiles among Add Health respondents make possible for the first time cutting-edge, population-based gene expression studies that map connections among social experiences, the genetic regulation of the immune system, biomarkers, and very common forms of inflammatory morbidity and morbidity-specific mortality. No other data source has: the depth of longitudinal social, behavioral, environmental, genetic, and biological data; the breadth of multilevel longitudinal environmental exposures including the social, physical, and developmental environments over three decades of the life course; or the race, ethnic, socioeconomic status, and geographic diversity of Add Health's national sample. Analyses of these data could inform therapeutic interventions; identify new genetic mechanisms for GxE research; inform mechanistic models that link social circumstances with nhealth (thus targeting interventions and raising awareness about the consequences of social circumstances); and identify new molecular precipitants to disease, allowing for uniquely targeted interventions before the onset of frank illness.n n
