Islamists and Nationalists at the dawn of a new Mali, a politically and militarily correct State
Last December the parliamentary elections in Mali (with the prevalence of social-democratic Rassemblement pour le Mali) and the previous election in August of Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta as President of the Republic have completed, at least formally, the institutional transition that began in April 2012, following the coup against President Amadou Toumani Touré.
Of course, as often the case these days, it's a democracy forcibly imposed by arms with a taste of neo-colonial flavor: both elections have been held with the presence of 3,000 French soldiers and 6,000 military of the Minusma UN mission, after France, helpless when the military had broken Malian democracy, on the other hand, had intervened in January last year by the Socialist Hollande's Serval military operation, when the coup-rooted regime had lost control of the Azawad northern territory in favor of the Tuareg Islamists.
The Tuaregs, a Tamazight-speaking group of nomadic tribes living today in the Saharan and Sahelian regions of Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Algeria and Libya, are cultural and ethnic minority in all countries where they reside. The tribal structure of their social composition helps to understand the historical difficulty of French colonizers to integrate them into institutional setting, first of French West Africa and then, during the transition to independence, of the uprooted young State entities: in these new realities, Tuaregs can be found split in several nations, by sharing the same space with other ethnic groups with completely different costumes (Bambara, Peul, Malinké, Soninké, Bozo, Toucouleurs, Songhai) and often being marginalized compared with these ones. For example, the opportunity to use their own language at schools and in the media has always been a reason for cultural claims, alongside with the defense of their economic and territorial prerogatives and the call for an improvement of social services (health and education facilities, extension of the wells and food distribution network, road infrastructures, special terms of energy costs, crime fighting).
May also be explained this way the numerous rebellions erupted in Mali and Niger, among which we recall:
- the 1916-17 riots against the French;
- the 1961-64 revolt, countering the land reform introduced by the new socialist Republic of Mali, and that, following a brutal crackdown, saw one of its protagonists, Zeyd Ag Attaher, son of the Tuareg Ifoghas' Amenokal (tribal Chief), confined a few years later at the Taoudeni salt mines, in the northern Malian desert, one of the most remote Earth prisons;
- the 1990-95 uprisings in Mali, which began in the last months of the Moussa Traoré's regime and finished in the first period of the Alpha Oumar Konaré's presidency, and the contemporary one exploded in Niger, aimed to the autonomy, and resulting in an agreement for a greater share of the mining revenues in favor of Tuaregs;
- the February 2007 insurgency, again in Niger, and this time finalized to a larger share of uranium exploitation revenues, a request conflicting with the interests of some French dealerships settled in that area (see the Imouraren fields, which are among the largest deposits in the World).
The April 2012 Declaration of Independence of Azawad, almost contemporary and in reaction to the military coup, it fits, as a result, in this context of Tuareg unrest, steeped in a secular social marginalization and led in a tough life between drought and famine, among government promises and harsh repression of protests. It's clear that the discontent roots are to be sought in the mistakes made at the independence time in drawing the new territorial and institutional Mali; therefore, errors of French source, which, 50 years later, are compounded by a military "paternalism", superficially and demagogically cloaked in anti-terrorist purposes.
Doubtless, the democratic process led since the French intervention could still go towards a recovery of Tuareg noncompliance, also because the June 18th Interim Agreement of Ouagadougou (which enabled the accomplishment of presidential and legislative elections) has gathered around the Burkinabé mediator Blaise Compaoré both the Malian governmental authorities and the Tuareg fighters of newborn High Council for the Unity of Azawad, of the National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad, and of the Popular Front of Azawad. Islamists of ʾAnṣār ad-Dīn and of Movement for Oneness and Jihād in West Africa were absent from the negotiating table.
The following picture provides an account of the existing differences among the main Tuareg movements, which can be so broadly determined:
- the loyalists to the Republic of Mali, such as Colonel Major Alhaji Ag Gamou, former Chief of Staff of Malian President, later adherent to the National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad, and further back in defense of regime;
- the federalists of Popular Front of Azawad (FPA), an inter-ethnic movement (Tuareg, Songhai, Arabs and Fulani), led since its foundation (2012) by Colonel Hassane Ag Mehdi;
- the secular Nationalists, mainly grouped around the 2011-born National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad (MNLA), which lost military superiority in the North in favor of the Islamists. Following the French intervention, MNLA resized its aspirations, by seeking, at least over the short term, a more achievable autonomy;
- the autonomist Islamists of the High Council for the Unity of Azawad (HCUA), founded in Kidal in May 19th, 2013 from the melting of the Islamic Movement of Azawad (MIA) of Algabass Ag Intalla, son of Intalla Ag Attaher, the Tuareg Ifoghas' Amenokal and Chairman of HCUA;
- the jihādist Islamists of Iyad Ag Ghaly's ʾAnṣār ad-Dīn (Defenders of Religion), a 2012-founded group aimed to the Sharī'a application and to the establishment of an Islamic State, even though not necessarily separate from Bamako, as MNLA pursues looking ahead;
- the jihādist pan-Islamists of the Movement for Oneness and Jihād in West Africa (MUJAO), a mid-2011-born movement meant to bring Islamist insurgency in West Africa, with northern Mali seen as a sector of a wider jihād. For this reason, some analysts have been erroneously assumed it's an offshoot of al-Qāʿida in the Islamic Maghreb, despite the patent opposition of the latter Algerian leadership about the opportunity to pursue early creation of an Islamic State in Mali.
Definitely, other external Islamist groups are active in Azawad, by primarily pursuing goals of enlargement their militant bases and this could explain the success achieved by ʾAnṣār ad-Dīn among young people in offering a strict Islamist model adhering, at the same time, to the Tuareg tradition. Among the exogenous movements there are, for example:
- the Deobandi Tablighi Jama'at (Group for the Diffusion of Faith), a 1926-born pacifist trans-national missionary movement originated from India and active in northern Mali since the 90's of last century. According to the international organization for conflict prevention International Crisis Group, the entire leadership of the Kidal Tuareg Ifoghas, including Intalla Ag Attaher and Iyad Ag Ghaly, had converted to the Tablighi; but a large body of evidence suggests that, among the elders Ifoghas, just Ag Ghaly and a narrow circle close to him would have embraced this doctrine;
- the Saudi-inspired Wahhābis of the Signed-in-Blood Battalion, founded in 2012 by Mokhtar Belmokhtar, the former Algerian Commander in the Sahara-Sahel of an independent group of al-Qāʿida in the Islamic Maghreb. Based in Gao, where Islamist fighters were well received by many people when the town was captured by MUJAO, the Battalion was established for the consolidation of Sharī'a in northern Mali and is opposed to the Sufi Confraternities traditionally active on this territory;
- the Salafists of Tanzim al-Qāʿida fī Bilād al-Maghrib al-Islāmi (Organization of al-Qāʿida in the Land of the Islamic Maghreb), the new name of the Algerian Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat since January 2007, after the holy union with al-Qāʿida announced by Shaykh ʾAyman aẓ-Ẓawāhirī a few months earlier. Devoted to the spread of Sharī'a and also committed to the liberation of Mali by the alleged French colonial rule, the organization recruited militants in Mauritania and Morocco, as well as in Mali, Niger and Senegal.
The 2012-13 Malian crisis follows a long period of Islamist movements revaluation as political subjects and a deep reflection on the relationship between national identity and religious identity: this discussion involves Tuaregs on how to enforce a match between ethnicity and Islam. In other words, following the wretched experiences of the Modibo Keïta's socialist government in the 60's (which had obscured Islam and its reformist efforts), by the advent of Konaré's rule, the first democratically elected President in 1992 and 1997 who would have sponsored the establishment of the High Islamic Council of Mali in the early 2000's, many Muslims, particularly in the North, had a chance to show their growing aversion to Bamako, by acquiring new opportunities for political legitimacy and by requiring reforms towards Islam. But, following the 1996 peace agreements, Tinbuktu, Gao and Kidal northern regions were left even more isolated and, at the same time, saw the formation of local Islamic associations, as well as attracted a lot of allogeneic-inspired ones, in particular from Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Moreover, in recent years there has been an open debate about the nature of a secular State and the role of Islam in politics. For example, the Wahhābi Imam Mahmoud Dicko, President of the High Islamic Council of Mali and native to the Tinbuktu region, rejects a vision of secularism as "a denial of religion by the State", calling for a "smart secularism", where "everyone's rights are respected", according to the constitutional principles of worship freedom.
In this context, the 2012 Tuareg rebellion had begun, in conjunction with the March military coup, with the request for independence of Tinbuktu, Gao and Kidal regions, drawn by the National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad of Bilal Ag Acherif, its Secretary-General, and Moḥamed Ag Najem, head of its military wing. MNLA leadership had been soon challenged by ʾAnṣār ad-Dīn Islamists, who, already rooted in the Kidal area, conquered Tinbuktu in May, and by June, with the involvement of MUJAO pan-Islamists, defeated the secularists in Gao. In the name of dialogue, negotiations with the government in Bamako started immediately, not only on behalf of Tuaregs, but also of other ethnic groups traditionally at odds with them, such as Bella and Songhai: it's an indication of a religious motivation, which now overlaps with territorial claims. An Islamist effort to gain Mopti region early in January 2013 broke at French intervention, which was MNLA-backed in the vain hope of regaining control of the north for its own benefit: by the end of the month the entire Azawad was once again subjected to the Malian government and the French military protection.
At the moment, with a completely refurbished institutional context, the new Mali has an opportunity to retrieve the Tuareg and Islamist dissent that has been crossing its history since the outset. Surely, Bamako (along with Paris, Washington and Algiers) won't allow separatist leak in the short term, as well as won't allow alleged extremist Islamic factions to influence the Malian political agenda. The democratic weapons of fraternal supervisors, rather than the will of its political components, ensure it, being always on alert. Just as certainly, the public role of Islam, even though within the framework of a secular State, cannot be rejected into the recesses where it had been confined in the 60's. Decades have passed since then and, undoubtedly, its awareness has been generally strengthened by the war events, even right by the resizing of its more radical components: after all, the restoration of a likely Malian State legitimacy emanates from a compromise, gaining a strong contribution by autonomist Islamists, as well.
This discussion is directly pouring on the constitutional choices politicians are called to foster and that will be so much more consistent to social reality as much as ruling class will realize the influence some deeply rooted social groups exert on public opinion: in other words, the bodies of political representation not always can act on its own, even legitimately, regardless of popular feeling and its need to participate in decisions. For example, the fierce Islamic opposition to certain provisions of the new 2008 Family Code introduced by President Amadou Toumani Touré bears witness, because it led to the immediate withdrawal thereof, as a result of a large mass rally held by the High Islamic Council of Mali.
Likewise, Tuareg demands for autonomy cannot be again overlooked on the basis of a military defeat, but also assessed and discussed in order to introduce policies for fighting ethnic and social marginalization and discrimination, setback in economic conditions, lack of development, territorial depletion, political exclusion; and, at the same time, to start policy in support of local institutions and regional cooperation. Perhaps, these are the interventions northern populations expect from those who care about their condition (State or subjects frequently substitute of its authority, see political or religious organizations), failing which hardly the military cure occasionally offered will absorb dissent.
Finally, Mali can be saved and define its "Malian" future if, while respecting its international loyalty, it will be able to reject some approaches – these, sure, seriously allogeneic! – imposing shallow, but utilitarian "Western" simplifications, that is Tuareg = Islamists = extremists = al-Qāʿida = terrorism, resulting in a democratic military action. These approaches are very comfy if regarded from the opulent Paris or Washington, much less if experienced by anguished Bamako and Tinbuktu.
However, there is time. The Tuaregs, as a millennial Saharan people, hope and are very patient. For now…

The Southwest's fire season is lasting longer and getting worse, according to researchers. Fire officials do have a trick up their sleeve: prescribed or planned burns.
The Los Alamos National Laboratory is creating a tool that uses physics and data modeling to predict how a prescribed burn might behave before it's lit. But, in hot, dry weather it's harder to keep them under control.
KUNM sat down with Senior Scientist Rod Linn to learn more.
ROD LINN: The planning for prescribed fire usually starts around a set of objectives. Those could be reducing the risk of catastrophic wildfires or they might be for ecological benefits. How do we meet those objectives safely? For most prescribed fire planning, it's a process by where experts weigh those different factors, and try to understand the conditions under which they can achieve their goals in a safe manner. The other big constraint that they're oftentimes looking at is where are they putting the smoke from their fires? They try to avoid putting smoke in communities, for instance, or on critical infrastructure.
KUNM: Can you talk to me more about this tool that you're developing called QUIC-fire? How does it work? And, what does it mean for forest management here in the Southwest, specifically?
LINN: So, QUIC-fire is a tool that's been developed by the Los Alamos National Laboratory, in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, Tall Timbers, and now the U.S. Geological Survey. The goal of QUIC-fire has been to capture or represent the most critical physical phenomena that determine fire behavior, so that we can model or simulate prescribed fires. Prescribed fires are extremely challenging, because they're often done in mild conditions. That's a little counterintuitive to most people, because in mild conditions, most people would think that would be the easy time to model or simulate a fire or predict where a fire is going to go. And in reality, those are oftentimes more challenging to simulate or predict, than stronger fires. That's because the fluctuations and the winds, that would be gusts, or variability in the vegetation can mean a lot more under mild fire conditions.
The other piece of that is when the winds change, either unexpectedly or expectedly, that can cause big changes in fire behavior, both wildfire and prescribed fire. So, the planning process for prescribed fires always includes an effort to understand how the conditions are going to evolve over the day or over the duration of that fire.
KUNM: With all that we know to be true about fire seasons essentially going out the window, how is fire modeling adapting to the unpredictability of climate change right now?
LINN: As you mentioned, with climate change or evolving conditions, combined with evolving ecosystem conditions that are partially caused by the exclusion of fire for nearly a century, we're having to work harder to anticipate how fire will behave in various ecosystems. That's especially hard if you start thinking about the addition of other disturbances such as insect or bark beetle outbreaks that kill trees and change the ecosystem conditions. That translates to a need for fire behavior models or fire prediction tools. They're built from an understanding of the basic physical phenomenology that drives fires––because that basic physics isn't changing, even when the conditions change. Whereas, if you simply observed fire in the past under one set of conditions, it's not a guarantee that fire will behave exactly the same under future conditions, whether those be climate changed or fuel accumulation changed. What we're really working to do in the field of fire behavior modeling is tie our predictions and our simulation tools much more to the fundamental physics that responds to those evolving fire conditions.
KUNM: All right, well, thanks for taking the time to join us today.
LINN: Thank you.

The Angels have now gone 15 consecutive innings without scoring a run. That's usually not a recipe for success, as they lost 2-0 to the Mariners on Saturday and have now dropped two consecutive games to Seattle. With the loss on Saturday, the Halos are back to .500 on the season, as they'll look to finish the first half with a winning record on Sunday.
For the game, LA totaled only three hits. There was never really much action on the bases, as they went 0-for-1 with runners in scoring position. The only silver lining offensively was that David Fletcher extended his hitting streak to 23 games. Only five more games until he's halfway to the record!
23 in a row. Fletch style. pic.twitter.com/xsIkQV8yhj
— Los Angeles Angels (@Angels) July 11, 2021
On the pitching side of things, Patrick Sandoval was excellent. He gave the Angels seven strong innings and put them in a position to win. Sandoval struck out six and allowed two runs during his outing. He's now allowed three runs or fewer in 11 of his 12 outings this season.
The reason the Angels lost the game on Saturday was because of their defense. Seattle scored their first run in the fourth inning. With runners on the corners and out one, Jose Iglesias had trouble gripping the ball and couldn't get the throw to first in time. A run came in to score. Had it been a clean double play, the inning comes to an end.
Good camera angle by the @BallySportWest broadcast, showing that José Iglesias couldn't get the right grip while trying to throw that ball https://t.co/wh6WWrInVH pic.twitter.com/Y4JK2nKYMn
— Jack Harris (@Jack_A_Harris) July 11, 2021
The defense brought in another run in the sixth inning. While going for the inning-ending triple play, Fletcher and Iglesias collided, only allowing the Angels to record one out. The following hitter hit a triple, bringing in the second run. Not that it would have mattered since the Angels didn't score a run, but this game was there for the taking for them tonight.
Here was the play. David Fletcher is staying in the game. https://t.co/MhCg2Ra0BI pic.twitter.com/4JZonMSzOb

The Angels find themselves 5.5 games back of the Wild Card as they enter the final game of the first half on Sunday.

At BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK, our commitment to supporting young people goes hand-in-hand with our commitment to innovation. And we passionately believe that, as an established business, we can learn just as much from the next generation of talent as we can teach them.
As part of our ongoing partnership with Digital Innovators, who specialise in giving young people access to fulfilling career opportunities across the West Midlands, last month we teamed up with the award-winning training provider to host a workshop for young people from Solihull College and University Centre.
This very special event saw us invite 30 of the college's Business and I.T. students to the iCentrum Innovation Birmingham campus in the heart of the city's Knowledge Quarter, where they were tasked with taking on two business challenges presented by representatives from BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK.
Kicking off with a networking exercise where all students and industry professionals were handed a playing card, the young people were set the challenge of finding the person with their matching card. This acted as a brilliant ice-breaker activity, and built the students' confidence to approach members of the BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK team, sparking conversations.
Digital Innovator founder, Mick Westman, then kicked off formal proceedings by giving the students some background on Digital Innovators, before handing over to members of the BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK team Tanya Gamble (Talent and Career Business Partner), Jason Wright (Transformation Director), Sarah Privett (Internal Communications and Digital Manager) and Simon Jones (Head of Customer Service).
The students were then set two problem statements to respond to throughout the course of the day. The first of these business challenges focused on how BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK might better facilitate hybrid working to drive colleague engagement, and the second centred around how we can successfully implement chat bots to streamline operations and improve our customer service offering. Both of these problem statements put to the students were real and relevant business challenges for us a company, demonstrating our genuine interest in the students' valuable insights.
Breaking off into smaller groups, the students were then encouraged to create a user profile to help set the scene. Whilst working on their solutions, students also had the chance to speak to the event facilitators including Digital Innovators and representatives from BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK.
During the afternoon, students were tasked with presenting their ideas back to the BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK team in a 'Dragon's Den' style pitch process.
Speaking about the students' responses to the problem statements we set for them, Andrea Tittel, Director of Innovation at BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK, said: "As well as aligning with our mission to support young people, this event has undoubtedly also been really valuable for us as a business.
"Because these young people are digital natives, the way they see the world is unique, and they can therefore bring a fresh perspective to the challenges we face as a business.
"At BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK, we recognise the value of diversity of thought, so this has been a great opportunity for us to gain exposure to fresh ideas from our customers and employees of the future."
Sharing his thoughts on the day, Mick Westman, Founder of Digital Innovators, adds: "Connecting students with employers in the region and building confidence in these young people is vital to their future success, and at Digital Innovators we strive to bring these two things together.
"Like Andrea, I believe that the ideas that young people can bring to the table can truly transform a business, and it's been brilliant to see how receptive BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK has been to collaborating in this way."
Kam Virdee, Head of Business and Professional services at Solihull College, adds: "Having BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK here is so great for the students, as it brings potential career paths to life for these young people and shows them what skills they need to develop in order to achieve their goals."
But what did the students themselves feel they took away from the session? Solihull College student, Isa, said: "The Ideator session was a great opportunity for young adults to learn more about career pathways. The staff provided us with loads of information regarding potential apprenticeships and job opportunities working for BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK, and have offered several of us an industry placement to continue working on a project that we began developing on the day of the visit.
"Overall, I believe that this is an excellent opportunity for young adults as it assists them with their career ambitions. I would definitely recommend this event to a young adult who is exploring career paths!"

The Computer Emergency Response Team of Ukraine (CERT-UA) has linked a destructive malware attack targeting the country's national news agency (Ukrinform) to Sandworm Russian military hackers. CERT-U says the cyberattack was likely carried out by the Sandworm group based on the threat actors' tactics, which was previously linked to the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (GRU). The attackers launched the CaddyWiper malware on the news agency's systems using a Windows group policy (GPO), showing that they had breached the target's network beforehand. Still, they failed to impact the news agency's operations. Sandworm also used the CaddyWiper destructive malware in another failed attack from April 2022 against a large Ukrainian energy provider. The attackers tried to erase traces left by Industroyer ICS malware with the help of CaddyWiper, and other data wipers designed for Linux and Solaris systems tracked as Orcshred, Soloshred, and Awfulshred. CaddyWiper was first discovered by ESET security researchers in March 2022 when the data-destroying malware was used to delete data across the Windows domains of multiple Ukrainian organizations.
Analyst Notes
It has almost been a year since the invasion of Ukraine, and security researchers have discovered a series of new malware deployed against Ukrainian targets. These attacks have caused more global cooperation in support of Ukraine as well as a better understanding of Russian cyber capabilities and tactics. Russians have been targeting telecommunications, new agencies, and social media platforms to disrupt the flow of information within Ukraine. Although several attacks have been successful, CERT-UA has done an admirable job keeping systems operating and infrastructure intact.

January 2022 - Costar
The Mayoral Development Corporation has registered 436 home scheme indicating appetite to press on.
Housing developer Pocket Living's plans for a major build-to-rent scheme at Atlas Road, NW10, have been registered by the Old Oak Common and Park Royal Development Corporation.
The plans are for a site on Atlas Road next to the Grand Union Canal in the London Borough of Ealing. However, the site falls under the jurisdiction of the OPDC and is identified in the emerging plan as part of a new town centre. The registration suggests the OPDC wants to bring forward the development quickly as a fundamental part of the area's regeneration.
The Grid Architects-designed plans includes three inter-connected buildings proposing 436 units – a mix of studios, one, two and three bedroom build-to-Rent homes, with 35% provided as affordable housing.
Duncan Campbell, director at Campbell Gordon, said: "We acquired control of this site, jointly with Farino Cole, on behalf of Pocket Living/Related a year ago. It is immediately contiguous with what was the Collective's flagship Old Oak scheme. Regardless of the Collective's demise, this scheme in this location has always benefited from an exceptionally high level of occupancy, often with just one or two units available at any given time. This location can continue to thrive by meeting unexposed demand here. The regeneration of this area will continue, regardless of the incredibly high industrial land values. We are delighted that Pocket's planning application has now been registered last week, in what I think is probably record time."
Campbell added: "This is Campbell Gordon's third BTR transaction recently, having previously also acquired Thames Quarter and Huntley Wharf. It is clear that the future growth of this market in the West London and Thames Valley region is going to continue, driven by the clear evidence that rental premiums can be delivered when the right mixture of location, design and resident experience are brought together."

The UK government is making a bold move into the digital future with its newly formed Department of Science, Innovation and Technology. Tasked with advancing the country's metaverse and Web3 strategy, the department aims to explore economic growth, investment, business opportunities, and regulatory implications in these emerging areas.
The 2023 Spring Budget highlighted the government's ambition to "lead on the future of web technology, sometimes known as Web3 or the metaverse." As a result, the new tech department, established in February, will spearhead this endeavor. Rather than focusing on specific technologies like blockchain and virtual reality, the department will examine the potential economic growth opportunities, investment, and business models associated with the Metaverse and Web3, along with their regulatory implications.
Citigroup has described the metaverse, a collection of virtual worlds where people can buy and sell things, as a $13 trillion opportunity. Major companies like Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) have shifted their focus toward building the metaverse. However, the recent crypto winter has slowed its growth.
A Department for Science, Innovation and Technology spokesperson stated, "The Government is committed to ensuring the UK is ahead of the curve on the future of web technology and maximizing the potential of Web3 and Metaverse." They emphasized the department's pro-innovation approach, aiming to maximize new technologies' potential while minimizing any harms to the economy, security, and society.
The UK government's science and technology framework will be supported by over £370 million (about $463 million) in new funding to bolster infrastructure, investment, and skills for the country's most exciting growing technologies, ranging from quantum and supercomputing to artificial intelligence.
While it's unclear how much of that funding is dedicated to the tech department's metaverse work, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has stated that the department was established to transform scientific and technical innovations into "practical solutions to the challenges we face."

Install Pedestrian traffic signal at Bournemouth park road and Eastern Avenue traffic signal
It is absolutely astonishing to see no pedestrian crossing signal installed at this traffic light. The pedestrian have to estimate the time on red light to crossover the sides. This makes children, elderly and all pedestrian vulnerable and at risk. It would just be common sense for the council not to wait for an accident to occur but act now.
As stated, I petition to install pedestrian crossing lights at this traffic signal.

There are several capitals in Asia with a very high elevation, and the highest of them are presented here in the text, so keep reading.
The top three highest capital cities in Asia are the following:
- Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan.
- Sanaʽa, the capital of Yemen.
- Tehran, the capital of Iran.
All three of them are shown in the interactive map below. You can zoom in to see more details.
This capital of Bhutan is at the elevation of 2334 meters (7657 ft). You can compare this with Addis Ababa the highest capital in Africa which is only a few meters higher. According to Wikipedia, this is the fifth highest capital city in the world.
The picture above which shows Thimphu is by Christopher J. Fynn / Wikimedia Commons / CC BY-SA 3.0 & GFDL. This is the largest city in the country, and it became the capital in 1955 instead of their ancient city of Punakha.
But for a capital, this is a small city with a bit more than 115000 people in total. Bhutan became a member of the United Nations in 1971. This had an effect on the capital development as well. Please see more about the city in this video:
Sanaa is slightly lower than Thimphu, but its elevation is still impressive 2250 meters (7382 ft), and this makes it the 7th highest capital in the world.
This is also the largest city in Yemen and its population is more than four millions. Note that this is still the capital of the country although the government was moved to Aden in 2015 because of the war, and this city currently serves as a temporary capital.
The Old City of Sanaa is an UNESCO World Heritage Site. According to legends, the city was founded by Shem, the son of Noah. The current name is in written historic documents since the 3rd century. Please see more in this video:
This huge city is at an elevation of 1830 meters (6003 feet). Its population is over 9 million, and over 16 million in the larger metropolitan area. The city is the second largest metropolitan area in the Middle East, after Cairo.
It is at the place where in ancient times there was a prominent Median city of Rhages. This is also the place of the ancient city of Ray that dates back over 8000 years.
Tehran became the capital of Iran in 1786. It is interesting that this is the 32nd national capital of Persia. You can see more in this video, please have a look:
You might want to check also my text about the westernmost capital city in Asia. But read also about things to do in Seoul, the capital of South Korea.
Thank you for reading. Let me know if you have questions, there is a comment box below. Bookmark this site and keep it as a reference, it is all about capitals. Have a nice day.

When it comes to homeownership, ensuring a leak-proof roof is an essential aspect for maintaining a safe and comfortable living environment. Your roof serves as the first line of defense against the elements, protecting your home and its contents from rain, wind, and other potential threats. To help you achieve a leak-proof roof, we have compiled a list of the top 10 roofing tricks and tips that every homeowner should know. Whether you are a seasoned DIY enthusiast or simply looking to gain knowledge about roofing, this article will provide you with the necessary insights to safeguard your home. Let's get started on the journey to a leak-free haven!
Inspecting and Maintaining Roof Shingles
Regular inspection and maintenance of your roof shingles is crucial to ensure a leak-proof home. By keeping a close eye on the condition of your shingles, you can identify any potential issues early on and take appropriate measures to prevent leaks. Here are some important tips to help you inspect and maintain your roof shingles:
Check for Damaged or Missing Shingles:
Regularly inspect your roof for any damaged or missing shingles. Look for signs of cracking, curling, or blistering, as these indicate potential weaknesses that could lead to leaks. Additionally, make sure there are no loose or completely missing shingles, as they need to be replaced promptly to maintain a watertight barrier. -
Clear Debris and Clean Gutters:
Keep your roof free from debris such as leaves, branches, and dirt. Accumulated debris can trap moisture and cause damage to your shingles over time. Additionally, make sure to clean your gutters regularly to prevent clogs that could lead to water backup and potential roof leaks. -
Trim Overhanging Branches:
Overhanging tree branches can pose a threat to your roof's integrity. Trim back any branches that come into contact with or hang over your roof. This will prevent them from scraping against shingles or causing damage during high winds or storms.
By following these inspection and maintenance tips, you can extend the lifespan of your roof shingles and ensure a leak-proof home. Regular upkeep is key to avoiding costly repairs and protecting your home from water damage. Stay proactive and address any issues you notice promptly to maintain the integrity of your roof.
Proper Roofing Ventilation
A well-ventilated roof is essential for maintaining a leak-proof home. Proper ventilation not only helps to regulate temperature and moisture levels, but it also prevents the buildup of damaging condensation. Here are some important tips for achieving optimal roofing ventilation:
Install Ridge Vents: Ridge vents are a popular choice for ensuring adequate ventilation in a roof. These vents are installed along the ridgeline of the roof, allowing hot air to escape while cooler air is drawn in through the soffit vents. This continuous airflow helps to prevent moisture buildup and ensures a balanced temperature throughout the attic space.
Consider Soffit Vents: Soffit vents are another crucial component of proper roofing ventilation. These vents are located on the underside of the roof overhang, allowing fresh air to enter the attic. Without sufficient soffit vents, airflow can be restricted, leading to trapped humidity and potential moisture damage.
Use Exhaust Fans: In areas where humidity levels are high, such as bathrooms or kitchens, installing exhaust fans can help to remove excess moisture from the air. This can prevent condensation from forming on the underside of the roof and reduce the risk of leaks or water damage.
Remember, maintaining adequate roofing ventilation is crucial to the long-term durability of your roof. By implementing these tips, you can ensure a leak-proof home and protect your investment for years to come.
Effective Roof Flashing Techniques
One crucial aspect of roofing is ensuring effective flashing techniques. Flashing plays a vital role in keeping your roof leak-proof by sealing vulnerable areas. Here are some useful techniques to consider for successful roof flashing:
Start with proper preparation: Before installing flashing, ensure that the area is clean and free from debris. Remove any old sealant or damaged flashing materials to create a smooth and solid base.
Choose the right flashing material: Selecting the appropriate flashing material is essential for long-lasting protection. Common options include galvanized steel, aluminum, copper, or specialized rubberized flashing tapes. Each material has its own advantages and compatibility with different roofing materials.
Proper installation: Precise installation is crucial for effective flashing. Make sure to overlap flashing sections correctly and secure them tightly using appropriate fasteners. Pay close attention to the angles and corners of your roof, as these areas often require extra care.
By following these roof flashing techniques, you can enhance the waterproofing capabilities of your roof, providing a durable and leak-proof shelter for your home.

New data on how hurricane-force winds affect electric transmission towers
Most people in the U.S. don't give a second thought to flipping a switch for light. The U.S. made big investments in the mid-20th-century on the transmission side of the national electric grid to provide reliable electricity to society. The problem is that many transmission towers have exceeded their design life by about 50 years, which means the aging grid today faces bigger chances of failure.
One threat to the grid is from damaging winds of extreme storms such as hurricanes. Case in point—over $25 billion dollars in wind damage from Hurricane Michael, which in 2018 toppled about 100 transmission towers in Florida.
A new set of laboratory experimental data aims to help scientists and engineers understand and avert the threat of gale-force winds on electric transmission structures. The project (PRJ-1379) won a 2022 DesignSafe Dataset Award , which recognized the dataset's diverse contributions to natural hazards research.
The researchers used one of the world's most powerful hurricane simulators, the Natural Hazards Engineering Research Infrastructure (NHERI) Wall of Wind Experimental Facility at Florida International University (FIU). Realistic 1:50 scale models of transmission towers and a multi-span transmission electrical cable system were worked over by the Wall of Wind, capable of generating Category 5 hurricane-force winds of 157 miles per hour.
Different wind speeds and directions were tested to simulate the chaos and complexity of real hurricanes. The tests, conducted in July 2019, measured the elastic forces induced by motions of the structure, the wind and different components of this structure under wind-structure interaction effects.
The science team published parts of their results in July 2021 in the journal Engineering Structures. Several other papers based on the generated data from this project are currently under review.
"One of the main outcomes so far, and the reason it's still ongoing after the project has ended, is the identification and characterization of the most important parameters for analysis and design of these structures," said Abdollah Shafieezadeh, Lichtenstein Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geodetic Engineering at The Ohio State University (OSU).
As a primary focus of this research, Shafieezadeh and colleagues studied two key parameters—gust effect factor and drag coefficients—used by scientists and engineers for analyzing the impact of wind on transmission tower and conductor systems, and also in using the model they developed for the design phase of new systems.
"We developed sensor fusion methods on the analysis side that were able to combine different types of information from different types of sensors that were instrumented and verified at FIU," Shafieezadeh said.
The model towers were instrumented with three 3-axis accelerometers, one 6-degrees-of-freedom load cell, and six strain gauges, basically capturing motion of the cross-arms, base shears, and torsional reactions. A data acquisition system collected measurements from the sensors, which were eventually analyzed by statistical methods.
They did three sets of tests—one was on single towers without insulators; another was with a multi-span transmission line; the last test looked at the response of the tower system when a conductor or insulator fails under hurricane winds, something unique to this experiment. Each of these tests provided new insights that are important for understanding the complex behavior of tower structures under extreme wind effects.
"The main thing that we learned from the study is about the gust effect factors. The peak loads were different than what are published in the standards," said Arindam Chowdhury, PI and Director of the NHERI Wall of Wind Experimental Facility; and Professor and Chair in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at FIU.
Chowdhury and colleagues at FIU generated higher fidelity, more reliable estimates of these parameters with their state-of-the-art wind lab. Shafieezadeh and colleagues at OSU then compared that data against what is available in the engineering codes and standards ASCE-7 and ASCE-74 and updated the existing models.
"We saw that these codes are potentially underestimating these factors," said Shafieezadeh. "That could have implications for the safety, reliability, and resilience of these structures."
They stressed that there is nuance in the results and not just one general conclusion, because it depends on many factors such as wind speed, wind direction, and the characteristics of the tower.
"But we saw a general trend is an underestimation of the loads," Shafieezadeh said.
They also found the effect in all directions was important; the codes mainly cover the along-wind direction.
"We tested crosswind direction and generated gust effect factors and drag coefficients for those directions," Chowdhury said. "These are new. Some of these data might be incorporated in the standards for transmission lines, which could help improve the safety of new towers built."
The dataset was made publicly available on the NHERI DesignSafe cyberinfrastructure.
"Learning about DesignSafe and the structure it offers was very helpful," Shafieezadeh said. "We have massive amounts of data produced by these experiments. DesignSafe makes it structured and available in a meaningful way to the community, so they can use it without going through many hoops."
"DesignSafe gave us the structure, the training for the students who participated, and the best way that the dataset can be used by a larger community without difficulty in navigating through the data," Chowdhury added.
The award-winning dataset was central to a larger project, "Experimentally Validated Stochastic Numerical Framework to Generate Multi-Dimensional Fragilities for Hurricane Resilience Enhancement of Transmission Systems."
"A key aspect was to get real data of the performance of these structures and understand their behavior and translate it to our computational models," Shafieezadeh said.
"We use the computational models to develop 'fragility models' that allow us to analyze the probability of a particular damage state happening in the system as a function of the characteristics of the hazard, in this case wind speed and wind direction," he added.
Another example of the data being used is by the project, "CAREER: Resiliency of Electric Power Networks under Wind Loads and Aging Effects through Risk-Informed Design and Assessment Strategies," led by Alice Alipour of Iowa State University.
Her project studies the wind effects on these kinds of systems, but it also takes into account the aging effect of corrosion and how the wind effects change in power networks.
Also using the dataset is the project of Amal Elawady at FIU, "Collaborative Research: Downburst Fragility Characterization of Transmission Line Systems Using Experimental and Validated Stochastic Numerical Simulations." It studies tower effects from downbursts, strong downward and outward winds that can wreak havoc on buildings and towers.
Said Shafieezadeh, "In order to keep the system reliable and resilient in the future, we need to invest in improving the electric grid. One strategy is to identify the grid's most vulnerable parts. That requires a deeper understanding of the behavior of these structures so that we can identify vulnerabilities and cost-effectively design new structures or upgrade them. That's where a data set of this study can help substantially in answering those questions."
The authors of the winning dataset are Ziad Azzi, Dejiang Chen, Arindam Gan Chowdhury (Co-PI), Amal Elawady, and James Erwin of Florida International University (FIU); Ashkan Bagheri Jeddi and Abdollah Shafieezadeh (PI) of The Ohio State University (OSU); Yousef Mohammadi Darestani of Michigan Technological University.

Businesses in Jersey are being asked to share breastfeeding facilities.
The Social Security Minister has made the plea, as she waits for delayed family friendly employments rights to return to the States for debate.
They aim to improve support for new mothers.
Deputy Judy Martin is appealing to employers and parishes to share their spaces with neighbours where possible.
" I am very aware that for some businesses, having a facility for women to either breastfeed or express milk and refrigerate it provides a significant challenge. Therefore I want to help businesses prepare for the proposed changes coming in to force by collating a list of breastfeeding facilities that businesses and parishes are happy to share. I believe this will make it easier for smaller businesses to recruit and retain new mothers in their workforce."
The Chamber of Commerce says it is 'common sense', but is also calling on the government to do its bit by sharing its own facilities.
"These changes in the law will come at a cost to businesses, so we'd also ask the government to make sure their buildings are available for breastfeeding and refrigeration facilities in the first case for those businesses that are unable to make the changes to their own buildings." - Murray Norton, CEO
Firms happy to share their facilities with working mothers are being asked to complete this survey by 30th September.

Mark your calendars, because this November, Netflix is set to unleash its highly anticipated series, Squid Game: The Challenge. Building upon the gripping concept of the original show, but without the life-or-death element, this new spin-off will see 456 contestants vying for a jaw-dropping cash prize of $4.56 million USD—the largest ever offered in reality TV history.
Netflix paints a tantalizing picture of what's to come: "Through a series of games, each player will be pushed to their limits and forced to question how far they are willing to go to emerge victorious. Brace yourself for opportunistic alliances, cutthroat strategies, and timely betrayals."
Unlike Mr. Beast's unofficial competition, where a generous $456,000 USD was up for grabs, Squid Game: The Challenge promises a mood that is much more intense. Earlier this year, reports emerged of contestants on the show requiring medical assistance during filming in the United Kingdom. In fact, after the heart-pounding "Red Light, Green Light" round, several individuals were spotted being carried off on stretchers—a testament to the gripping nature of the games.
As we eagerly await further details to surface in the weeks to come, one thing is for certain: Squid Game: The Challenge is poised to deliver an electrifying and pulse-pounding viewing experience.

Taylor Swift's 2011 'Speak Now' Marilyn Monroe Moment from New Angle
Taylor Swift 2011 'Speak Now' Monroe Moment From a Whole New Angle!!!
Taylor Swift once had a wardrobe whoopsie eerily similar to Marilyn Monroe's famous blowing-dress moment -- something that, until now, could only be viewed from one side.
Diehard Swifites will likely remember this well ... back in 2011 -- on the heels of Taylor releasing her OG 'Speak Now' album -- she went on tour at the young age of 21 ... when she had essentially reached pop star status and her fame was absolutely skyrocketing.
Along the way, she stopped off in St. Louis for one of her shows ... and during her performance, a gust of wind shot up onstage and started taking her blue dress with it.
Taylor was able to get a handle on things before it became too embarrassing ... and she played it off like a pro, getting right back to singing/acting like nothing had happened. This moment -- which went viral at the time -- was captured on video ... albeit, from the back.
Yes, her undies flashed a bit -- but her quick hands managed to avoid exposing her frontside ... which was actually captured by a (longtime) front row fan at the time, who snapped what can only be described as an iconic shot, especially when you see how it sizes up to Marilyn.
TMZ has obtained the photo ... and it's truly something to behold, in a good way of course. The image is a little fuzzy, but hey -- the technology back then was what it was, y'all.
Anyway, as you can see ... she's bent forward, with her left hand covering the dress and the mic in the other hand. Indeed, her pose here is just like the one MM struck in 'The Seven Year Itch' -- when she stood over a subway grate and a gust of wind shot up into her outfit.
The resemblance of the two frames is uncanny -- and considering how big Taylor has gone on to be ... you could maybe even argue it was destiny, seeing how it happened naturally.
The best part of revisiting this time is that Taylor is actually on the verge of re-releasing 'Speak Now' (Taylor's Version) some 13 years later ... so, it marks an anniversary of sorts!
Interestingly enough, she's back on tour again ... and more of a draw than ever before. And yes, while she's asked her loyalists to lay off John Mayer for this go-around -- that hasn't helped much, unfortunately. In any case, one superstar act births another ... the circle of life!

scanf Format Specifiers
Go Up to scanf, wscanf
In scanf format strings, format specifiers have the following form:
% [*] [width] [F|N] [h|l|L] type_char
Each format specifier begins with the percent character (%).
After the % come the following, in this order:
Component | Optional/Required | What It Is/Does | |
[*] |
(Optional) |
Precision character. The precision character is an asterisk (*), not to be confused with the C indirection (pointer) operator. If the asterisk follows the percent sign (%) in a format specifier, the next input field will be scanned but it won't be assigned to the next address argument. The suppressed input data is assumed to be of the type specified by the type character that follows the asterisk character. | |
[width] |
(Optional) |
Width specifier. The width specifier (n), a decimal integer, controls the maximum number of characters to be read from the current input field. Up to n characters are read, converted, and stored in the current address argument. If the input field contains fewer than n characters, the ...scanf function reads all the characters in the field, then proceeds with the next field and format specifier. The success of literal matches and suppressed assignments is not directly determinable. If the ...scanf function encounters a whitespace or nonconvertible character before it reads "width" characters, it:
A non-convertible character is one that cannot be converted according to the given format (8 or 9 when the format is octal, J or K when the format is hexadecimal or decimal, and so on). |
(Optional) |
Pointer size modifier. Overrides default size of address argument:
| |
[h|l|L] |
(Optional) |
Argument-type modifier. Overrides default type of address argument:
| |
type_char |
(Required) |

The state's rent laws include a loophole that works to the advantage of many a landlord: landlords can evict even rent-stabilized renters if the owner will be occupying the apartment in the renters' place. A number of officials, including City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, would like to eliminate said loophole?and a Chelsea building, 221 West 16th Street is the effort's latest poster child. As the Daily News explains, building owner Gary Brown wants to take over five rent-stabilized apartments in the building for his own use. The units' tenants pay $200 to $300/month in rent and are scheduled to be evicted tomorrow.
As per a press release from opponents of the eviction, "Tenants fear that Mr. Brown's real aim at 221 West 16th Street is to use these units for his Furnished Quarters 'corporate housing' company, renting them out to high-paying temporary occupants. Mr. Brown has received violations for the illegal use of some of the units in this building in the past." There are a few bills pending in Albany to close the loophole, but they might come too late for 221 West 16th.

When my husband and I were first married, he worked for Ernst & Young and I was at Target. We were fresh out of college, rode the bus downtown together, had a half story 1949s fixer upper in Richfield, and were super thankful for our corporate jobs. It was gloriously busy with us each working upwards of 60 hours a week.
Fridays quickly became the most tiring night of the week because the exhaustion from work caught up to us and we just wanted to tune out and reconnect with each other. So "Friday Pizza & Movie Night" was born. We'd order pizza, catch up over dinner, and then watch a rented Redbox DVD movie together (what a glorious creation that big, red box at the Holiday gas station was). It became a sacred night. A coveted space. A time we both started to look forward to as the days passed during the week.
When we had our first son a couple of years later, he joined in on the fun. I remember laying a "splat mat" on the floor (ya know what I'm talking about, those wipeable, large mats that saved our floors when we had babies!), moving his high chair into the living room, and watching him cover his face in pizza sauce as my husband and I caught up on the week together. Less than two years later, another son. Two years later, another. A few years later, our daughter arrived. As the years wore on, that sacred night remained.
We have countless pictures of floor mats on the ground, covered with high chairs, booster seats, and pizza remains. I remember Buzz Lightyear impersonations, Lightning McQueen tracks on the mats, and laughter as the kids sang "just keep swimming" over and over again. I cherish the cuddles and kisses, holding hands with my husband, and singing songs together from our favorite movies.
I also remember turning down countless invitations out. Friday pizza and movie night wasn't just a fun family routine. It was tradition. It was coveted. It was a space that we refused to budge on for the sake of our family. As the splat mats have long since been thrown, and our conversations over pizza more engaging with each other, as our movies have turned to Avengers, Star Wars, and old classics like Back to the Future and Sandlot, our kids love it as much as we do. They have learned that it's a pillar of our family structure and often refuse invitations all on their own if it's left to a Friday night.
I still get the occasional cuddles on the couch from some of them. We wrap up in blankets, find wherever we can to lay down, and laugh until we cry together. I know that as each year passes this time grows in sacredness. These moments together will be less, and our children will start to leave our home, one after the other. It is coming more quickly than we could ever have realized. My husband and myself will no longer have jobs and parenting to wipe us out that first made this tradition, but you can bet we will keep it alive. We will be back to the beginning, our wrinkly, old hands entwined together over pizza, recounting and reliving our many sacred family memories made over Friday Pizza & Movie Night.

Taylor Swift attends the "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour" Concert Movie World Premiere at AMC The Grove 14 on October 11, 2023 in Los Angeles, California.
Taylor Swift turned heads in a coordinated outfit from Stella McCartney as she stepped out in New York City this week.
The 33-year-old singer-songwriter donned a striking wool-blend tweed plaid belted trench coat and a complementing mini skirt for dinner with friend and collaborator Jack Antonoff at Paros Tribeca Tuesday, Page Six reported.
The vibrant ensemble, threaded with hues of orange, brown, blue, yellow, white, green, and black, was elegantly cinched by a matching belt.
Swift paired the pieces with a V-neck cable knit black sweater and matching Sheertex tights.
The pop superstar accessorized the look with Jimmy Choo/Jean Paul Gaultier pumps featuring acrylic wedge heels with an Eiffel Tower motif, a burgundy crossbody purse, and delicate glittery jewelry.

Swift also sported a lustrous blowout and her signature red lip, exuding classic sophistication during her Manhattan outing.
Swift's latest sighting follows her recent visit to Wisconsin, where she cheered on boyfriend Travis Kelce during the Kansas City Chiefs' game against the Green Bay Packers.
Notably, during the game, she sported yet another Stella McCartney design as she supported the Chiefs alongside pal Brittany Mahomes.
The "Evermore" artist wore a striking red coat over a black turtleneck top, a pleated skirt, and Stuart Weitzman over-the-knee boots.
Brittany Mahomes and Taylor Swift celebrate a touchdown by the Kansas City Chiefs against the Denver Broncos during the second quarter at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on October 12, 2023 in Kansas City, Missouri.
Speculations that Swift was dating Kelce gained traction after her first attendance at a Chiefs game on Sept. 24.
The duo has since been spotted together on multiple occasions, including date nights in New York City, Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Kansas City, Missouri.
An unnamed source close to the Kansas City Chiefs star told People last week that the relationship is genuine, emphasizing how both individuals appreciate each other's accomplishments and grounded personalities.
Describing the couple's bond as "growing," the insider highlighted their mutual dedication to their respective careers.
The source emphasized Kelce's acknowledgment of Swift's artistry and how both navigate the complexities of their high-profile relationship with resilience.
"They're both really hard workers, and he acknowledges her art is hers, and he has what's his. He understands the territory their relationship comes with and like he said, isn't letting any of the hoopla impact how they're growing together," the source said.
The insider added, "Their relationship is about the two of them, and he sees Taylor for who she is and vice versa."
