Deutsche Mitverantwortung an Israels Kriegsverbrechen in Gaza
"Denn die deutsche Mitverantwortung an Israels Kriegsverbrechen in Gaza steht außer Frage – auch wenn die Richter des IGH erst in Jahren abschließend urteilen werden, ob es sich dabei im juristischen Sinne um einen Völkermord handelt oder nicht."

Pas la partie numérique, parfaitement fonctionnelle, mais les charnières et le plastique qui maintenait l'écran.

En tant que #décroissant pauvre, je ne sais si je dois payer 100 ou 200 € à le faire réparer ou si j'en rachète un d'occase.
Des conseils ?

I haven't been here in a few days. Nothing happened. I was just busy with documentaries and preparing my virtual machines by removing unwanted programs, cleaning them up, etc., all in preparation for my new tablet! I never thought, in my life, that I would buy a tablet, because I'm obsessed with using a keyboard. But after constantly shorting mine out, due to hyperhydrosis (excessive sweating), I decided that I may as well get one, so that I could change the keyboard when needed. Plus, this is a Toughpad, so it can withstand pretty much anything. Did I mention it's small? Barring desktops, I hate large computers. How anyone can consider 11.6 inches to be a mini laptop is beyond me. This one is 7 inches, which suits me well. I even found the perfect bag to go along with it, and it holds the Toughpad, plus my Galaxy A15, plus my keyboard! It's also water-proof and wonderfully cushioned.

November Memories (1963)
(Catching up on things)
Many people remember when they heard that President Kennedy had been shot. I was in Language Arts class my junior year at Los Alamos High School. Just before noon there was a knock on the classroom door. Our teacher was summoned into the hall. A minute later she stumbled into the room with her hand on her breast saying “He’s been shot!” We all looked around at each other not knowing what was going on. I thought someone had been shot in the hall but I hadn’t heard any noise. Eventually she told us that the President had been shot. Since it was almost lunch period classes were dismissed and most of us wandered over to the cafeteria. Walter Conkrite's voice was piped into the room over the PA system. During lunch we learned of the tragedy in Dallas eventually realizing the President had died. I remember students filing outside sitting on the lawn and crying.
This was particularly difficult to process. JFK had visited the scientific labs and later our school in December of the previous year and had made such an impression on us. I remember listening to him at the football field. Seeing him and Vice President Johnson was so exciting. To see the President and such a vibrant man. His death deflated us.
I was in the front row of the crowd. It was so awesome when he came down and started to shake hands. I missed his hand but did touch his suit sleeve. A treasured moment. (See video minute 6:25 and beginning 10:00.)
The following weekend was so chaotic with the plane trip from Dallas to Washington, the bloody pink dress, the hunt for Oswald, his murder on camera by Ruby and then the state funeral including Black Jack the horse with boots reversed in the stirrups. The beautiful horse was a symbol of a fallen leader. We had a new President with both similar and new agenda(s). Talk about a gloomy November.

Where Did the Global Elite Go to School? Hierarchy, Harvard, Home and Hegemony
"We examine the educational backgrounds of the global elite, using new data on a diversity of organizational leadership roles as well as the population of the super-rich across the world. First, we find a small number of globally prestigious universities to take on super prominent roles, suggesting a strongly hierarchical distribution of credentials among the global elite. Second, we find a consistent and unique place for Harvard University within this system. ..."

Beatles For Sale
2024 is coming to a close. The other evening I was looking back over the decades ending in the number four and realized that several of those decades were life changing for me. Another chapter in my haphazardly written autobiography.
1964 - In August my parents, my 14 y/o sister and I, a strapping youth of 17, moved from Los Alamos, NM to Kano the capital of Northern Nigeria. I was going to miss my senior year of high school and all the activities that year would bring. The following 12 months were one of the most amazing years I ever experienced.
Today is 4 December the 60th anniversary of the release the The Beatles' album Beatles for Sale on EMI's Parlophone label. Most likely my favorite Beatles album.
It was released just before the Christmas holiday. With large British population in Nigeria at the time there were many students returning home from the UK with lots of The Beatles' new album in their suitcases.
My parents and a number of other American educators were employed at the Kano Teachers Training College at the time. Most of those teachers lived in the American "compound". Soon after we moved in to our new California ranch style house I met the three young sisters living next door. One I got to know very well. Her older sister had become friends with a British boy earlier in the year who was returning home for the holidays. With him was Beatles for Sale.
The Kano County Club had a "children only evening". The music selection and dance floor was ours. The only record played was... Yup. Later in the week there was a party at someone's house while the parents were out. For Sale was all we heard in the darken house until someone turned on a light and "Turn off the bloody light" was yelled out. The light was extinguished and the snogging continued. A beautiful ending to 1964. Could not have had a better Senior year.

A quick review on 2024
This has been a Year of Overcoming Major Challenges, Opportunities, and Exchanges
Before storing these congress badges in a box for collectibles, I am taking a few moments to reflect on 2024, an exceptional year for me, marked by significant moments and enriching encounters. I had the chance to participate in numerous prestigious conferences in Paris, Dublin, and Barcelona, which were highly beneficial in terms of networking.
Despite the significant challenges I had to overcome this year, I managed to turn these obstacles into growth opportunities. The numerous exchanges I had during these events not only enriched me personally but also opened up new professional perspectives.
I would like to thank all those I met for their time, expertise, and support. Their encouragement helped me navigate through difficulties and achieve my goals.
Let's see what 2025 has in store for us!

2024, un bilan anticipé
Je profite quelques moments de réflexion pour faire un bilan anticipé de l'année 2024 et ses défis majeurs à surmonter, mais également ses opportunités et échanges. Une année exceptionnelle pour moi, marquée par des moments forts et des rencontres enrichissantes. J'ai eu la chance de participer à de nombreux congrès à Paris, Dublin et Barcelone, très profitables en termes de networking. Je me demande juste où je vais mettre tous ces badges d'entrée maintenant...
Malgré des défis significatifs que j'ai dû surmonter cette année, j'ai réussi à transformer ces obstacles en opportunités de croissance. Les nombreux échanges que j'ai eus lors de ces événements m'ont non seulement enrichi personnellement mais ont également ouvert de nouvelles perspectives professionnelles.
Je tiens à remercier tous ceux que j'ai rencontrés pour leur temps, leur expertise et leur soutien. Leurs encouragements m'ont permis de naviguer à travers les récifs en direction du bon port.
Il nous reste maintenant à voir ce que 2025 nous réserve !
