Scripture Reading
Zechariah 12:10-11

Over the House of David and the citizens of Jerusalem I will pour out a spirit of kindness and prayer. They will look on the one whom they have pierced; they will mourn for him as for an only son, and weep for him as people weep for a first-born child. When that day comes, there will be great mourning in Judah.

Europa lebt, weil Europa immer für die Freiheit kämpft.


Der Kampf für die Freiheit geht weiter. Und wir werden ihn gewinnen.
Weil Freiheit bedeutet, Träume in Ziele zu verwandeln. Weil Freiheit mehr ist als wir alle. Weil Freiheit immer einen Kampf wert ist.
Freiheit ist eine Herausforderung. Und Schwäche ist dieser Herausforderung nicht gewachsen. Freiheit erfordert Stärke.
Unsere Welt ist imperfekt. Aber das Futurum dieser Welt bestimmen wir.

Es lebe Europa. Es lebe die Freiheit. Slawa Ukrajini.

War by other means — Trump’s tariffs and the empire’s final gamble


#geopolitics #imperialism #war

The hollowing out of US industry wasn’t caused by China — but by American elites themselves. Starting in the 1980s, they embraced hyper-financialisation, prioritising short-term gains from financial markets over long-term investments in productivity and employment. They were the ones who offshored manufacturing to low-wage countries — China chief among them — enabling US corporations to reap enormous profits while decimating domestic industry and working-class communities. And it was these same elites who aggressively championed the global free trade regime that made this massive offshoring possible.


thomasfazi.com/p/war-by-other-…

As noted already, reindustrialising the US and scaling back hyper-globalisation are meaningful and legitimate goals — both from the standpoint of American workers and national security. This isn’t because China is inherently an enemy, but because reducing excessive reliance on far-flung supply chains for critical goods is simply a matter of common sense.

However, for this strategy to succeed, it must be grounded in an accurate diagnosis of the problem — and an effective remedy. Trump’s policy, however, fails on both counts. His administration’s entire tariff narrative is based on the idea that the hollowing out of US manufacturing and related import dependencies are the result of other countries — chief among them China — “ripping off” and “free-riding” on America.

GUERRE ÉCONOMIQUE : LA GAUCHE A-T-ELLE LA SOLUTION FACE À TRUMP ? L’AVIS TRANCHÉ DE PORCHER - Le Média


#économie #politique #souveraineté

video.lemediatv.fr/w/7b5cde17-…

"L'économie américaine c'était plutôt bien"


qu'un économiste puisse dire ça est effrayant, la dette américaine était (est toujours même si elle a diminué de 2000 milliards de $ après cette "crise") insoutenable à terme
une adaptation progressive de l'économie ne serait possible que si l'état profond américain était d'accord, or les globalistes sont vent-debout contre tout changement, le seul moyen était donc de les mettre devant le fait accomplis... ce qui est presque réalisé

les 90 jours promis par Trump, ne sont qu'un discours, non seulement il continu de "négocier" des droits de douane pendant cette période, mais surtout en posant un droit de 10% il passe d'un droit inexistant à un droit très significatif "en attendant" les négociations...

qu'a gauche, on vante la globalisation est une incompréhension totale des forces en actions et de la puissance de la grande bourgeoisie (qu'on appelle "État profond" aux USA). Et le projet de Trump montre le genre d'opposition qu'aurait rencontré la gauche lorsqu'elle aurait fait elle même les mêmes mesures (et si elle les avait fait plus progressivement, elle n'aurait pas pu le faire du tout dans un monde globalisé)

En définitive,Porcher montre qu'il n'est pas a gauche, mais qu'il est un socialiste (un lupenprolétaire qui a renoncé à la lutte de classe)


Quallunaat .. White people full mockumatary



A collaboration between filmmaker Mark Sandiford and Inuit writer and satirist Zebedee Nungak, Qallunaat! brings the documentary form to an unexpected place in which oppression, history, and comedy collide.
This documentary pokes fun at the ways in which Inuit people have been treated as “exotic” documentary subjects by turning the lens onto the strange behaviours of Qallunaat (the Inuit word for white people). The term refers less to skin colour than to a certain state of mind: Qallunaat greet each other with inane salutations, repress natural bodily functions, complain about being cold, and want to dominate the world. Their odd dating habits, unsuccessful attempts at Arctic exploration, overbearing bureaucrats and police, and obsession with owning property are curious indeed.

Play Monkey Mart Game!

Monkey Mart's development and rewards for tiny efforts make it so appealing. Each tap is meaningful and boosts Silas's riches. Watching the booths fill with vegetables, customers happy buying their wares, and coins accumulate generates a powerful circle of inspiration. It taps into the human need to develop and nurture, even a monkey-run virtual bazaar.

The Monkey Mart appeal is obvious. Graphics are lively and cartoonish. Silas and his monkey coworkers, who can automate activities, are portrayed with a joyful spirit that makes players smile. The game's calm yet fascinating mood is enhanced by the sound design's soft harvesting noises and cash register "cha-ching" sound. It's a welcome, fun world that's excellent for escaping daily life.

Monkey Mart

goes beyond tapping and upgrading to make strategic decisions. Players must balance profitability with harvesting time and effort while choosing which stalls to invest in first. Silas can focus on expansion and new product lines by hiring more monkey workers to automate jobs. The game discreetly urges players to optimize their workflow to harvest, stock, and serve their growing client base.

New products and mart growth give a pleasant sense of exploration. Unlocking a new stall, like the popcorn machine or juice press, adds profit and visual interest to the bustling bazaar. Silas's banana stand grows into a large, multi-faceted emporium, demonstrating the player's progress.

Monkey Mart also successfully incorporates idle games. Silas and his hired workers get passive money when the player isn't tapping. This lets gamers relax and check in to collect earnings, upgrade their stalls, and plan their next expansion. Its blend of active interaction and passive progression makes it suitable for daily spurts.

In conclusion, Monkey Mart is a simple but captivating game that has won over many. Its cute visual, straightforward gameplay loop, and fulfilling sense of developing a successful business around a hard-working monkey make it calm and enjoyable. It reminds us that sometimes the most engaging adventures start with a banana and that even in the most fantastical virtual worlds, creativity is fun. Put yourself in Silas's shoes, accept the mart's rhythm, and experience Monkey Mart's surprise appeal. It may make you crazy.

Play Geometry Dash Online!

Geometry Dash's music-gameplay synergy is likely its most notable feature. The beat is part of the challenge, not just a backdrop. Players must integrate the aural and visual surroundings as obstacles come and fade with the rhythm. This offers an immersive experience where success is a culmination of player and game harmony, not just dexterity. The joy of timing a complex sequence of jumps and flips to the music's crescendo is unparalleled.

Early simplicity gives way to surprising depth in the game. As they go, players acquire geometric forms with changeable colors and trails for a personalized look. More importantly, they experience several gameplay mechanics. Gravity portals transform the world, velocity changes disrupt timing, and spaceships and UFOs introduce novel control dynamics. This continual growth keeps the gameplay interesting and eliminates monotony, even after many attempts at a difficult level.

The Geometry Dash is not for the fainthearted. Its severe difficulty curve borders on masochism. Levels need pinpoint timing and focus. Failure is inevitable and typically occurs milliseconds before the finish. However, its difficulty makes it addictive. Each setback inspires a determination to try again, learn the pattern, and overcome the seemingly insurmountable. Players keep going back for more because little successes, incremental advancement after many efforts, are so rewarding.

Beyond official levels, Geometry Dash has a vibrant and creative community. A powerful level editor lets players create and share complex, mind-bending levels. UGC offers an unending supply of fresh challenges, from beginner-friendly to levels that push the limits of human possibility. This vibrant community keeps the game fresh and evolving when the official content is exhausted.

In conclusion, Geometry Dash goes beyond tap-based gameplay. It shows the power of sleek design, music-gameplay synergy, and the appeal of a good challenge. The game requires time and precision, but perseverance yields a distinct sense of accomplishment. Geometry Dash is a relentlessly paced journey that will test your reflexes and playlist, whether you're a casual mobile gamer looking for a fast adrenaline rush or a dedicated enthusiast looking for the ultimate challenge. Once inside its world of sharp edges and thundering sounds, the need to conquer its geometric gauntlet is irresistible.

Does the Stone Crushing Plant Need Dust Removal Equipment?

In the mining and aggregate industry, stone crushing plants play a key role in turning large rocks into various sizes of construction materials. However, crushing operations also generate a significant amount of dust, which not only harms the environment but also affects the health of workers and the efficiency of the equipment. This raises an important question: does the stone crushing plant really need dust removal equipment? Let's explore the reasons, benefits, and practical considerations of integrating dust control systems in stone crushing operations.

The Role of Dust in Stone Crushing Operations


Stone crushing processes—whether using a stationary plant or a portable stone crusher(trituradora de piedra portatil)—involve feeding raw materials like granite, limestone, or basalt into a primary crusher. As the material breaks down, fine dust particles are released into the air. The amount of dust depends on factors such as the type of rock, the crushing method, and moisture content.

In many cases, dust is unavoidable, especially during dry weather or in open quarry sites. The presence of fine particles not only poses health hazards but also reduces visibility, causes blockages in machinery, and contributes to environmental pollution. This is especially concerning when crushing softer materials like limestone, which can generate a large volume of fine dust.

Health and Environmental Concerns


Crystalline silica, commonly found in stones like granite and limestone(molino para piedra caliza), is a well-known respiratory hazard. Prolonged exposure can lead to serious health issues, including silicosis and other lung diseases. Workers in close proximity to crushing equipment are most at risk.

In addition to health issues, dust can also lead to environmental degradation. Accumulated dust can pollute nearby water sources, affect local vegetation, and contribute to air pollution. Regulatory authorities in many countries have implemented strict air quality and workplace safety standards, making dust suppression not just optional but mandatory.

Benefits of Installing Dust Removal Equipment


Implementing dust removal equipment in a stone crushing plant brings several key advantages:

1. Improved Worker Safety


By reducing airborne particles, the work environment becomes safer and more comfortable. Operators and technicians face lower risks of respiratory problems and other health issues.

2. Enhanced Equipment Efficiency


Dust can clog up filters, screens, and conveyors, reducing equipment performance and increasing maintenance needs. Effective dust control minimizes these issues, resulting in longer equipment lifespan and reduced downtime.

3. Regulatory Compliance


In regions with strict environmental laws, dust removal systems help ensure compliance and avoid fines or shutdowns. This is especially important for plants processing materials like limestone or concrete.

4. Better Product Quality


Controlling dust also helps maintain the cleanliness and consistency of the end product, whether it’s gravel for road construction or fine materials for concrete mixes.

Common Dust Suppression Methods


There are several methods used in stone crushing plants to suppress dust:

Water Spray Systems


Water spray systems are among the most common solutions. Nozzles installed at various crushing and screening points help dampen dust before it becomes airborne.

Dust Extraction Units


These are mechanical systems that use fans and filters to extract dust from enclosed sections of the plant. They are particularly effective in indoor crushing setups or where precision control is needed.

Enclosures and Barriers


Covering conveyors and transfer points helps to contain dust, while wind barriers reduce dust movement in outdoor plants.

Do Portable Crushers and Specialty Crushers Need Dust Control?


Absolutely. Mobile equipment like a portable stone crusher or a concrete crusher(trituradora de concreto) used on construction sites is often located in urban areas or near residential zones. The risk of dust pollution in such settings is high, making dust suppression a necessity.

Similarly, when operating a limestone crusher, the high generation of fine particles due to the soft nature of limestone makes dust control essential for both safety and operational efficiency.

Conclusion


Yes, stone crushing plants undeniably need dust removal equipment. Whether it's a large-scale quarry or a mobile crushing setup, the health, environmental, and operational benefits far outweigh the investment. Proper dust suppression is not just good practice—it’s a vital component of modern, sustainable crushing operations in the mining and aggregate industry. As environmental regulations tighten and public awareness grows, equipping your stone crusher plant with reliable dust control systems is no longer optional—it’s essential.

N. E. Felibata 👽 reshared this.

"Intelligence evolved at least twice in vertebrate animals."

Twice meaning birds and mammals. (Octopuses (or maybe the plural is octopi?) are not vertebrates.)

"Birds and mammals did not inherit the neural pathways that generate intelligence from a common ancestor, but rather evolved them independently."

"Birds lack anything resembling a neocortex -- the highly ordered outermost structure in the brains of humans and other mammals where language, communication and reasoning reside. The neocortex is organized into six layers of neurons, which receive sensory information from other parts of the brain, process it and send it out to regions that determine our behavior and reactions."

"Rather than neat layers, birds have 'unspecified balls of neurons without landmarks or distinctions.'"

"The brain regions thought to be involved only in reflexive movements were built from neural circuits -- networks of interconnected neurons -- that resembled those found in the mammalian neocortex. This region in the bird brain, the dorsal ventricular ridge, seemed to be comparable to a neocortex; it just didn't look like it."

"By comparing embryos at various stages of development, Luis Puelles, an anatomist at the University of Murcia in Spain, found that the mammalian neocortex and the avian dorsal ventricular ridge developed from distinct areas of the embryo's pallium -- a brain region shared by all vertebrates. He concluded that the structures must have evolved independently."

Revamping Your Company Constitution: Steps and ACRA’s Role

Here’s how to amend a company constitution in Singapore and the role of ACRA in this process.

The company constitution is a crucial document that dictates how a business is managed. It outlines shareholder rights, director powers, and the rules for making significant decisions. As companies grow or pivot, the original constitution may need updating.

Here’s how to amend a company constitution in Singapore and the role of ACRA in this process.

Defining the Company Constitution


In Singapore, every company operates under a constitution. Previously known as the Memorandum and Articles of Association, it has been called “the constitution” since 2014.

This document covers:
- Shareholder rights
- Director powers and responsibilities
- Meeting protocols
- Decision-making procedures

It ensures all parties are on the same page.

Why Amend the Constitution?


Companies may amend their constitution for various reasons:

  • Restructuring the board
  • Modifying share classes
  • Updating meeting or voting rules
  • Complying with new regulations
  • Removing outdated clauses

When a business changes direction or when current rules are inadequate, revising the constitution becomes necessary.

Who Can Propose Amendments?


Both directors and shareholders can propose amendments. However, changes cannot be made arbitrarily. A structured process must be followed, and shareholder approval is crucial.

The company secretary plays an essential role in ensuring compliance with legal and corporate standards.

Steps to Amend the Constitution


  • Draft the Changes: The proposed amendments must be clearly written. Ambiguity can lead to future disputes. Many companies seek help from corporate secretarial services Singapore or legal experts at this stage.
  • Call an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM): Shareholder involvement is essential. A formal meeting must be held, with notice given at least 14 days in advance, unless a shorter period is agreed upon by all.
  • Get Shareholder Approval: A special resolution is required, needing at least 75% of the votes in favor.
  • Lodge the Resolution with ACRA: After approval, the resolution must be filed with ACRA within 14 days via BizFile+, ACRA’s online platform. Required documents include:
  • A copy of the special resolution
  • The updated constitution
  • ACRA Records the Change: Once ACRA processes the documents, the amendment is officially recorded. There is no separate approval process; correct filing ensures recognition.


Common Pitfalls to Avoid


  • Poor Wording: Ambiguity can lead to disputes or legal issues.
  • Wrong Resolution Type: Amendments require a special resolution, not just a board decision.
  • Missed Deadlines: Filings must be completed within 14 days to avoid penalties.
  • Inadequate Record-Keeping: Proper documentation of the EGM, resolutions, and updated constitution is essential.

Professional secretarial services can help maintain compliance and prevent these pitfalls.

Consequences of Non-Compliance


Failure to follow the proper process can lead to ACRA rejecting the filing. Unauthorized changes may be contested by shareholders or deemed invalid, leading to disputes, fines, or legal action.

The Role of the Company Secretary


A company secretary is not just an administrative role. They:

  • Ensure compliance with procedures
  • Draft and file necessary resolutions
  • Prepare and submit documents to ACRA
  • Offer compliance advice

In Singapore, having a company secretary is a legal requirement, ensuring the company operates within legal boundaries.

Conclusion


Amending a company’s constitution requires careful planning and execution. Shareholder support, clear documentation, and timely filing with ACRA are crucial. The company secretary’s role is indispensable in maintaining smooth and legal operations.

If your constitution seems outdated or if your company is undergoing changes, it’s an opportune moment to review it. For those unsure of where to begin, engaging secretarial services can provide expert guidance through the process.

Take heart friends:

The reason they rush to fly the immigrants off to other countries is because their cases are flawed and weak, and they can't withstand the rule of law.

The reason they make dictates by executive order is because they can't lead lawmaking, even this spineless Congress.

The reason they ban journalists and research science is that because their ideas are too weak to survive the marketplace of ideas.

Thanks for the comforting words of wisdom.
During the campaign MAGA pretended to be against “illegal” immigration but the focus of these ICE raids and no-due-process deportations to Salvadoran concentration camps has been on legal-status immigrants. Not surprising. Also not surprising the targeting of 1st amendment free speech rights.
