Yeah, Well...CNN IS FAKE NEWS, and that's all I have to say about that.
"Iran has reportedly rejected a ceasefire between itself and Israel, claiming that it did not receive “any ceasefire proposal” after President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire between the two countries.
A “senior Iranian official” told CNN that “Iran would continue to fight until it achieves lasting peace.” The official added that it “would view remarks from Israel” and the United States as being a “deception.”"

The unprecedented vertical expansion across Gulf cities has created unique concrete placement challenges that only large boom pumps can solve. In Dubai's Downtown district and Riyadh's new financial hubs, construction schedules demand continuous concrete pours at heights exceeding 60 stories—a logistical impossibility without the reach and precision of modern concrete boom pump technology. These mechanical giants have become the circulatory system of high-rise construction, delivering the lifeblood of concrete exactly where and when needed, at volumes that keep ambitious projects on their breakneck timelines.
The region's extreme climate adds another layer of complexity that boom pumps uniquely address. With ambient temperatures regularly exceeding 45°C and humidity levels fluctuating dramatically, concrete placement windows shrink while performance demands increase. Large boom pumps overcome these challenges through climate-adapted hydraulics and intelligent placement strategies that maintain concrete integrity from truck to formwork. Their role has evolved from convenient accessory to mission-critical equipment in the Gulf's race to the sky.
Engineering Advantages for Megatall Structures
Vertical Reach Capabilities
Modern boom pumps servicing Gulf high-rises feature Z-fold boom configurations reaching 60-70 meters vertically, allowing single-position placement for entire floor plates. The latest models incorporate high-pressure pumping systems (up to 230 bar) that maintain consistent flow rates at extreme heights—a necessity when placing 10,000+ cubic meter foundations or continuous shear walls.
Precision Placement Technology
Laser-guided boom positioning systems achieve millimeter accuracy when navigating dense rebar cages and complex formwork. This precision prevents the cold joints and honeycombing that plague manual placement methods. Some pumps now integrate with BIM models, automatically adjusting boom trajectories to avoid clashes with protruding steel elements.
Economic Imperatives Driving Adoption
Schedule Compression Benefits
Tower projects in the Gulf typically face liquidated damages exceeding $100,000 per day for delays. Boom pumps in Saudi Arabia enable 24/7 concrete operations, cutting placement times by 60% compared to traditional methods. Their ability to pour 500+ cubic meters per day keeps critical path activities on schedule despite tight construction sequencing.
Labor Optimization
A single boom pump crew replaces 15-20 manual laborers, a crucial advantage in markets facing skilled labor shortages. The reduced manpower requirements also minimize site congestion—a significant benefit when working on constrained urban plots where multiple trades compete for space.
Climate-Adapted Performance Features
Heat Mitigation Systems
Gulf-specification boom pumps incorporate refrigerated hydraulic oil coolers and UV-resistant hoses that maintain performance in extreme heat. Some models feature shaded operator cabins with climate control, ensuring precision operation even during midday summer pours.
Dust and Storm Protection
Sealed electrical components and automatic moisture sensors allow operation during frequent dust storms. Advanced units include real-time concrete monitoring that adjusts pumping parameters when sand content in the air affects mix consistency.
The dependence on large concrete pumps in UAE and Saudi high-rise construction reflects more than convenience—it represents the only viable solution meeting the region's unique combination of scale, speed, and environmental challenges. As towers grow taller and schedules more aggressive, these machines will continue evolving, incorporating AI-driven placement algorithms and alternative power systems to maintain their indispensable role in shaping the Gulf's futuristic skylines. Their value proposition extends beyond concrete delivery—they are enabling technologies turning architectural visions into structural reality.

ILO Convention 190/2019 on the elimination of violence and harassment in the workplace. What it is and how it has been implemented in various countries with Gianni Rosas, Director of the ILO Italy office.
FACT-CHECKING IS PROPAGANDA Factcheck.org is one of fecesbook's current "fact-checkers... here is a little research on them...and it is obvious that they have a globalist slant...
Fact Checking FactCheck.org FactCheck.org is run by the Annenberg Public Policy Center (APPC), a political and media thinktank started in 1993 by Walter and Leonore Annenberg under the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania (ASCUP) and funded by the multibillion dollar Annenberg Foundation. The current president of ASCUP is Amy Gutmann. Walter Annenberg Walter Annenberg (1908-2002) was the son of Moses Annenberg, a newspaper businessman that purchased the Philadelphia Inquirer and was indicted in what was at the time called "the single greatest case of tax fraud in U.S. history". Walter attended the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, but he dropped out before attaining a degree. After his father's death in 1942, he took over his father's business and greatly expanded it, buying up rival newspapers and even buying up radio and TV stations. He started new publications, such as TV Guide and Seventeen Magazine, and it published Playboy Magazine. In 1951 he married Leonore Cohn, niece of Harry Cohn, the founder and president of Columbia pictures until his retirement. It was said that Harry Cohn exchanged sexual favors for employment with actresses and was said to keep an autographed photo of Benito Mussolini on his desk. According to biographer Michael Fleming, Cohn forced Curly Howard of the Stooges to keep working after suffering a series of minor strokes, which likely contributed to a further deterioration of Howard's health and his eventual retirement and early death. In 1966, Annenberg used The Inquirer to cast doubt on the candidacy of Democrat Milton Shapp for governor of Pennsylvania. Shapp was highly critical of the proposed merger of the Pennsylvania Railroad with the New York Central Railroad and was pushing the US Interstate Commerce Commission to prevent it from occurring. Annenberg, who was the biggest individual stockholder of the Pennsylvania Railroad, wanted to see the merger succeed (which it did) and he was frustrated with Shapp's opposition. During a press conference, an Inquirer reporter asked Shapp if he had ever been a patient in a mental hospital. Never having been in one, Shapp simply said "no." The next day, a five-column front page Inquirer headline read, "Shapp Denies Mental Institution Stay." Shapp and others have attributed his loss of the election to Annenberg's newspaper. Amy Gutmann Amy Gutmann is a "political scientist" from Princeton University and claims to be an egalitarian from the school the school of thought of Liberalism. Her contributions to political "science" are her theories on what she calls "deliberative democracy" and on "group identity". In her 2018 University of Pennsylvania Commencement speech, "Think Uniquely, Stand United," she said that ". . . what makes us unique and what unites us are not starkly opposed. Uniqueness and unity are the twin pillars of a strong pluralism. We thrive when we combine unity of shared values with our unique perspectives on life. It has never been more important that we think uniquely while we stand united." From 2005 to 2009, Gutmann served on the National Security Higher Education Advisory Board, a committee that advises the FBI on national security issues relating to academia. In 2009, Barack Obama appointed Gutmann chair of the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues, and reappointed her in early 2012. Gutmann is a member of the Global University Leaders Forum (GULF), which convenes at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. She was also among the leaders of a select group of presidents of research universities throughout the world that advised the United Nations Secretary-General on a range of global issues, including academic freedom, mass migration, international development, and the social responsibilities of universities, call the Global Colloquium of University Presidents. Her husband, Michael Doyle, graduated from Jesuit High School in Tampa, Florida and is a professor at Columbia University. He was also a member of the External Research Advisory Committee of the UNHCR and the Advisory Committee of the Lessons-Learned Unit of the Department of Peace-Keeping Operations (UN). He is a member of Council of Foreign Relations, New York.
In addition, the "fact checkers" known as "Science Feedback" and Health Feedback" are also heavily funded by the Annenberg Public Policy Center.

Never has it become more apparent than it has these past couple of years that you can be standing next to another person and be existing in two completely alternate realities.
Everything is upside down and back to front and inside out because we haven't built society for purpose; we've built it to protect a class of obscenely wealthy and powerful people who contribute nothing of worth, and everything else has to be built around preserving their wealth
Excerpt: With all due respect to Obama, Biden, and Harris, Iran’s “Islamic Bomb” program just changed its pronouns to “was/were” after a mostly peaceful airshow featuring American B-2s. It is now unburdened by what has been.

"When POTUS says 60 days ... otherwise [Iran's] nuclear capability will not exist; he meant it. Iran should listen to the president of the United States, and know that he means it — every word."

a third thing, too: which is that Iran had experienced a revolution and moved ahead, away from church/state merger, but the US did a counter revolution and put a religiously extreme government back in power.
Of course that indicts more than 1 American regime, as more than 1 regime presided over manipulating those "brave Mujahideen fighters", which gets a lot more messy.

TEHRAN, Jun. 23 (MNA) – In a meeting with Iranian top diploamat, Russian President emphasized that the unjustified aggression against Iran has no basis and that Moscow will work to help the Iranian people.
@LeftistLawyer here's the thing. there was this interesting post from aj a little bit ago, so i went from assuming trump was just tryna bully everyone into it and risking his credibility to... it looks like netenyahu might have lied to him again? which could be very bad for israel.
@LeftistLawyer eh yes and no. iran has made pretty clear that every time they are hit, then will hit back. so tehran was getting hit up until like 80 or 90 minutes ago, so this last missile barrage (that might be over now?) was retaliation for that. lets see what happens now, bc netanyahu has maybe publically accepted?? thats what im seeing on al mayadeen but nowhere else.
I'm completely lost. Trump says there's a "CEASEFIRE". The M5M says there's no ceasefire. And I could swear that Trump said he would not settle for a ceasefire.
This war has no human characteristics, but fierce because it is properly beastly, in the sense of Liu Cixin who in Dark Forest makes Thomas Wade say: “If we lose our humanity we lose something, if we lose our bestiality we lose everything.”
Zionist beasts have managed to drag the world into a war whose nature is racial.
Global race war – this is the reproach in which the resurrected Nazism with Israel has dragged the world.
In this war, genocide becomes the rule. Gaza was the first chapter, now it’s up to Iran, a country of ninety million inhabitants that has been the victim of colonialism and Islamic fundamentalism since 1953 (when President Mossadeq democratically elected was hanged because he intended to nationalize oil by stealing it from Western companies).
I don’t think there is a way out of this war, I don’t think mankind will come out alive.
This war is the tail stroke of the dying colonialist lion but still capable of obliterating life on the planet. Its nature is therefore essentially racial: the senescent white race uses all the strength of its over-killing to prevent the front of the revanchist nationalisms of the south from gaining dominion over crucial resources.
If true, that is rather ironic. White nationalists have been trying to start a racial war for the last 50 years, without much success. Now the Israelis have kicked it off? Well, hopefully this thing will die down. Israel is getting hit hard enough to want this to stop, as does Iran.
#Trump: A complete agreement has been reached between #Israel and #Iran that there will be a full and comprehensive #ceasefire, which will come into effect within approximately 6 hours.
In response to the continuing Israeli aggression against Iran, on June 18, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi held telephone talks with the Foreign Ministers of Egypt and Oman at their request.

@arlon utilizava o Manjaro, mas comecei a ter muitos problemas de congelamento de tela, mesmo instalando os drivers da placa de vídeo. O Debian foi uma tentativa no sentido de algo mais simples e mais estável, e tá respondendo bem nos dois computadores.
Caraca! Que diferente. Imaginava que tu fosse do Ubuntu, que em geral é o SO que a galera fora da área de TI usa. Eu mesmo sou ubunteiro, mas já pensei em migrar pro Debian, porque não queria mais mexer com atualização. Só que ao mesmo tempo, gosto de experimentar software…
@arlon pois é, eu gostava do manjaro justamente por essa facilidade de simplesmente instalar qualquer software kkkkk mas acho que já estabilizei os que eu uso no dia-a-dia, e consigo fazer tudo que preciso usando o repositório do debian, o que não tem lá uso flatpak.
@arlon mas, realmente, minha porta de entrada foi o Ubuntu Studio. Depois migrei para o Xubuntu, justamente por conta do XFCE, que é o meu ambiente gráfico preferido, que uso até hoje.
manjaro justamente por essa facilidade de simplesmente instalar qualquer software
Qual ambiente era? XFCE?
o que não tem lá uso flatpak.
Dizem qu misturar repositório zoa o Debian…
Depois migrei para o Xubuntu, justamente por conta do XFCE
Eu era usuário de Linux Lite, que é baseado em Xubuntu. É Xubuntu mais cru, quase sempre eu tinha que usar comando. Aí passei pro Xubuntu porque achei mais prático e mais bonito.
@arlon - Manjaro XFCE - Eita beleza, vou ficar de olho aqui, mas são poucos os flatpaks, tomara que não aconteça nada hehehe - Xubuntu é massa mesmo, se der problema os meus flatpak no Debian, eu volto pra ele.
Google translate: O world, O people! Speak about Gaza, about the killing, the starvation, the displacement, the siege, the genocide! Speak… maybe you’ll find God with a word of truth. Speak about us, 626 days and we’re in the heart of the genocide! Speak about us, O people! O Lord, resolve it from Your side. Our Lord, do not burden us with what we have no strength to bear.
I'm taking the day off. I discovered my bank closed all of my firm accounts yesterday, including my credit cards, in error, which meant I was dead in the water. I was fucking pissed. I called their east coast office at 5am and got it all fixed by 7ish, but that kind of anger wore me out. That's about a pissed as a fire ant I've been in a few years. Someone was very close to getting a severe beating.
Google translate: Imagine this is your child... #Israel cut off his leg from the hip! But no one screamed, no one moved. Because his name is "Hani Ziyara"... from Gaza. May Allah be our sufficiency, and He is the best disposer of affairs.
Recent polling reveals that the ‘genocide fever’ in Israeli society has reached its logical conclusion: ‘If we can get rid of them all, why not?’
Twenty years ago, Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh, the spiritual father of the 'hilltop youth,' sketched out his vision for destroying Israel's democratic institutions & establishing Jewish supremacy. After Oct. 7, it seems that his vision is coming to fruition
Apparent and covert Israeli goals in the military conflict with Iran can trigger a massive escalation in the Middle East. The pragmatic Israel would not
