#Palestine / Israeli Prison Authority accused of humiliating a Jewish anti-war activist, threatening to tattoo a Star of David on his face
Itamar Greenberg, an anti-war activist, was arrested during a protest. He alleges that Israeli Prison Authority (Shabas) officials forced him to wear a shirt with the slogan “The Jewish people live” (עם ישראל חי) and threatened to tattoo a Star of David on his face. This incident is not isolated, as similar incidents have been recorded recently involving Palestinian hostages brought into Israel from #Gaza. Upon their release, these hostages were also forced to wear shirts with demeaning slogans. Shabas’ spokesperson claimed that the shirt was changed for Greenberg’s safety.
[…] Greenberg recounts: "When we went down in the elevator, which is small, they also threatened me. One of them said: 'I'll make you far-right, a kippah with a Star of David, come put on tefillin, are you a Jew with a circumcised penis?' It was really unpleasant.
[…] Greenberg waited about two hours in the cell. Before he was released, a senior Shabas officer arrived "with three falafels (police rank) and the writing 'מפק"ץ' [officer in charge]. She photographed me with her phone. I thought she was doing it to check the issue, because they told her what happened in the hearing.
[…] "Later, when I came to be released, another Shabas man with two falafels (prison guard rank) said to me: 'What is this shirt, you're not leaving with it.' I said to him: 'Of course I'm leaving with it. You shamed me, you tried to insult me, and I demand documentation of this.' He said to me: 'I hope you get kidnapped,' and the officer said: 'Amen, thanks to all the prayers and all the righteous people, have fun in the tunnels, go to Gaza.' They said: 'I hope an Iranian missile falls on your head.' Another one said to me: 'Next time you're arrested, we'll tattoo a Star of David on your face,' assuming like they did to a Palestinian detainee. Within all this conversation, I understood that if I refused, they would hit me, so I took off the shirt."

plant offenbar eine elektronische Steuererklärung, die von der Finanzbehörde auf der Basis der ihr ohnehin zur Verfügung stehenden Informationen ausgefüllt wird, die dabei pauschale Abzüge vornimmt und sie dann dem Bürger zur Freigabe elektronisch vorlegt. Wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe, wird die Besteuerung allein auf Einnahmen-Ausgabenrechnung umgestellt. Keine komplizierten Abzüge, Abschreibungen, Hinzurechnungen etc.
Eine bisher notwendige Aufschlüsselung des VERMÖGENS und des PRIVATEN VERBRAUCHS (für was auch immer man das in der sozialistischen Form der Einkommensteuererklärung gebraucht hat), verbunden mit eidesstattlichen Versicherungen ist nicht mehr erforderlich. Eventuelle zu versteuernde Einnahmen werden offenbar automatisch aus den bekannten Daten ermittelt, wozu offenbar auch die Umsatzsteuererklärung gehören kann (bin mir da aber nicht ganz sicher), und unter Berücksichtigung pauschaler Abzüge ermittelt. Ziel ist eine maximale Verwaltungsvereinfachung und eine vollständige Anonymität der privaten Ausgaben der Bürger.
Was damit ab dem Steuerjahr 2025 auch entfallen wird, ist die in Argentinien eigentlich zwingende Voraussetzung, einen Steuerberater zu beschäftigen. Jeder kann offenbar bei Einverständnis durch schlichte Zahlung seinen Besteuerungsvorgang abschließen.

A fast website is a powerful one. It welcomes visitors, boosts your rankings, and fuels your goals. Image compression, caching, and CDNs are the foundation of that power.
Your website is your digital handshake—a first impression that can inspire or disappoint. A slow site sends visitors running, but a fast one captivates them, boosts your brand, and elevates your success.
Want to create a seamless online experience? Focus on three powerful strategies:
Image compression
Caching
Content Delivery Networks (CDNs)
These aren’t just technical fixes—they’re your path to a world-class website.
🖼️ Image Compression: Make Every Pixel Count
Images bring your site to life, but oversized ones can choke its performance. A single unoptimized image can turn a snappy page into a sluggish one, driving away your audience.
Imagine packing a sleek sports car with heavy luggage—it won’t perform at its best. A 5MB image can often be compressed to 200KB without losing its spark.
Here’s how to optimize:
Choose formats wisely:
- JPEG for rich photos
- PNG for transparent graphics
- WebP for cutting-edge efficiency
Resize images to match your site’s needs:
If your layout uses 800px-wide images, don’t upload a 4000px version.
Use free tools:
Try TinyPNG, Squoosh, or ImageOptim to shrink file sizes while keeping visuals crisp.
✅ Optimizing images can transform load times, especially for visually rich sites like portfolios or online stores.
💾 Caching: Build Once, Use Often
Your site’s core elements—logos, fonts, styles—stay the same across pages. Reloading them for every visitor is like rewriting a book for each reader. Caching changes that.
By storing these elements, caching lets browsers and servers reuse them, slashing load times and creating a smoother experience.
Here’s what you need to know:
Browser caching:
Saves files on users’ devices for faster return visits.
Server-side caching:
Stores pre-built pages to ease server strain.
Plugins:
Tools like WP Rocket for WordPress make caching a breeze.
💡 Most hosting providers offer caching solutions. Reach out to yours to enable them and unlock instant speed gains.
🌐 CDNs: Bring Your Site to the World
A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is like a global network of express delivery hubs for your website. It stores static content—images, scripts, fonts—on servers worldwide, ensuring users get data from the closest location.
If your site’s hosted in London but a visitor’s in Sydney, a CDN delivers content from an Australian server, cutting wait times dramatically. It also boosts reliability during traffic spikes.
Popular CDN options:
Cloudflare – Great for small sites, offers a free plan
Akamai
Amazon CloudFront
⚡ Why Speed Defines Your Success
A fast website isn’t just a technical win—it’s a competitive edge:
SEO: Google prioritizes speed, lifting faster sites higher in search results.
Engagement: Quick pages keep visitors exploring and clicking.
Mobile: Speed is critical for users on slower networks.
> ⚠️ A one-second delay can cut conversions by 7%, per studies. Don’t let slow loading dim your site’s potential.
🛠 Your Path to Speed
Start by measuring your site’s performance with tools like:
Google PageSpeed Insights
GTmetrix
WebPageTest
They’ll pinpoint what’s holding you back. Then take action:
Compress your largest images for immediate impact.
Enable caching through your CMS or hosting provider.
Set up a CDN like Cloudflare to reach global audiences faster.
🔧 Each step brings you closer to a site that shines.
👨🎨 Partnering with a Web Designer?
If you're collaborating with a web designer or custom web design services, insist on speed optimization. Ask:
✅ Are images optimized for performance?
✅ Is caching fully implemented?
✅ Is a CDN part of the plan?
If these aren’t priorities, your site’s not built to compete.
🧵 The Vision
A fast website is a powerful one. It welcomes visitors, boosts your rankings, and fuels your goals.
Image compression, caching, and CDNs are the foundation of that power.

Limestone, a sedimentary rock rich in calcite, forms the foundational layer for many construction materials. In aggregate production, the transformation from raw limestone boulders to graded aggregate is not a simple one-step process. It demands a mechanical choreography of crushing stages, orchestrated primarily by jaw crushers and impact crushers. Together, these quarry crusher machines provide a calibrated approach to size reduction and shaping that meets stringent industry specifications for road base, concrete, and asphalt production.
Initial Fragmentation in the Quarry
The role of the jaw crusher in primary crushing
The quarry face is where the journey begins. Excavators dislodge limestone blocks, which are then loaded into the feed hopper of the jaw crusher. This primary crushing unit utilizes a fixed jaw and a moving jaw to compress and fracture large rocks down to manageable sizes, typically between 100 mm to 300 mm.
The jaw crusher’s mechanical advantage lies in its ability to handle large feed sizes and deliver a uniform output with minimal fines. Operating at a low reduction ratio, it prioritizes capacity and durability over precise particle shaping. This rugged crushing mechanism is essential in removing oversized material before it clogs downstream processing equipment.
Characteristics of limestone relevant to crushing
Limestone’s compressive strength, typically in the range of 30 to 250 MPa, makes it a relatively soft and friable rock compared to igneous stones. Its natural cleavage planes facilitate breakage along stratified lines, reducing energy consumption in the primary crushing stage. However, its abrasion index must be accounted for when selecting wear-resistant jaw plates, especially in high-throughput quarries.
Secondary Refinement through Impact Crushing
How impact crushers shape and size limestone aggregate
Following primary reduction, the intermediate-sized limestone enters the impact crusher, which performs a dual function: fragmentation and shaping. These machines accelerate particles toward stationary anvils or rotating hammers, inducing impact forces that fracture the material along its weakest planes. The high-velocity collision creates angular, cubical particles, ideal for high-performance concrete and bituminous mixtures.
Unlike compression crushers, impact crushers produce a finer and more consistent gradation. This makes them indispensable in refining limestone for graded aggregate standards, such as ASTM C33 or EN 12620.
Advantages of impact crushing in limestone processing
Impact crushers deliver more than just particle reduction—they optimize particle morphology. The consistent cubical shape enhances interlocking behavior in concrete, improving compressive strength and durability. Moreover, by adjusting the rotor speed and gap settings, operators can fine-tune output to meet varying end-use requirements, from sub-base to surface-course aggregates.
The open rotor design and hydraulic apron adjustments also facilitate easy maintenance and reduced downtime, making them an efficient choice for limestone, which naturally produces dust and fines.
Synergistic Efficiency in Aggregate Production
Integrating jaw and impact crushers for a streamlined flow
The real advantage emerges when jaw crushers and impact crushers operate in tandem. The jaw limestone crusher executes the initial bulk reduction, ensuring material flow is continuous and consistent. Once crushed to a manageable size, the material is seamlessly transferred via conveyor to the impact crusher for refinement.
This multi-stage configuration eliminates bottlenecks, reduces recirculation, and enhances overall plant throughput. Additionally, energy consumption is optimized as the burden of size reduction is intelligently distributed between machines based on their mechanical strengths.
Final aggregate characteristics and applications
The result is an aggregate that is well-graded, angular, and mechanically stable. It meets the specifications required for various applications, from rigid pavement layers to railway ballast and structural concrete. The seamless integration of jaw and impact crushing not only ensures operational efficiency but also yields a product that enhances construction longevity and performance.
In an industry where every millimeter matters, the symbiosis between jaw and impact crushers has become the cornerstone of modern limestone aggregate production. From boulder to base course, this engineered process ensures each particle is purpose-built for the demands of tomorrow’s infrastructure.
