Nella giornata di ieri, la #Danimarca ha annunciato, per voce del presidente della Federcalcio, la possibilità di uscire dalla FIFA per protesta contro le decisioni di Giani Infantino sulla fascia #OneLove ai Mondiali in Qatar.
👇
👇
“Ci sono le elezioni presidenziali della FIFA. Ci sono 211 paesi nella FIFA e l'attuale presidente ha dichiarazioni di sostegno da 207 paesi. La Danimarca non è tra quei paesi" ha aggiunto.

Il dibattito su una possibile (clamorosa) uscita dalla FIFA avrebbe coinvolto innanzitutto le federazioni scandinave, ma ora ieri notte tutte le sette federcalcio coinvolte nella campagna #OneLove hanno discusso possibili azioni contro la FIFA.

1/Rand Paul was PA born, TX raised, and groomed to take a Kentuckians job. KY elected Paul to the US Senate in 2011. Before passing a single piece of legislation to benefit Kentuckians, Senator Paul used his position to run for President in 2016. #Paulsnot4KY #RandPaul #Kentucky
2/#Rand Paul pretends to live in Kentucky. The average home 🏡 size in KY is 1,750 sq. ft. He really lives in 6,000 sq. ft. Pittsburgh luxury villa with 6 Bedrooms, 5 baths and a pool. #Paulsnot4KY #Kentucky @winchestersun #fancyfarm
3/Rand Paul was never a Kentucky Wildcat, Cardinal, Hilltopper, or Colonel. Paul paid tuition to be a Duke Blue Devil with Christian Laettner. #Paulsnot4KY #RandPaul #BBN #GoCards @WKUSports #GoBigE #waddy

A magnitude 7.2 (M 7.2) #earthquake struck #Haiti on August 14- west of the capital city, #PortAuPrince, and 50km west of the magnitude 7.0 devastating EQ that took place in 2010 which killed ~100,000 people and devastated the Island. 2/n
Both EQ;s were produced in the #EnriquilloPlantain fault zone, a complex boundary between two #tectonicplates. To the north there is another tectonic boundary, and this makes the Hispaniola island to be sandwiched in between a complex geological terrain 3/n
Riassunto conferenza #Ancelotti: "Accetto la pressione che il Real Madrid mette addosso. Il calcio è cambiato ma l'equilibrio è sempre la base, aggiunto alle individualità. La motivazione non mancherà ma il campo sarà il giudice" 1/
#Ancelotti: "Tengo molto a tutti i miei ex giocatori che ho allenato qui. Abbiamo però una rosa ampia e lavoreremo su quella. Non abbiamo parlato di mercato con Perez, ora non abbiamo tempo e dobbiamo lavorare sul campo. Sono cambiato dall'ultima volta qui" 2/
#Ancelotti: "Anche le esperienze negative sono utili. La rosa di quest'anno è un mix fra esperienza e giovani. Tutti però hanno qualità. Dobbiamo sfoltire tuttavia il gruppo squadra. Nei prossimi giorni si definirà la rosa definitiva e lo staff tecnico" 3/

A parliamentary inquiry committee has prepared a report on earthquakes, which appear to be a persistent danger to Turkey, following four months of work. The report, which will be submitted to authorities after revisions,
calls for reversing the pattern of rural-to-urban migration and “transforming” nearly 7 million buildings at risk of disaster. The committee was founded in the aftermath of last year's deadly earthquake in the Aegean area.
The draft report, which was released on Friday by the Hürriyet newspaper, calls for the demolition or reinforcement of high-risk structures in order to withstand potential earthquakes. It also suggests a number of other interventions.
I applaud the #EUCancerPlan *BUT* caution: putting #meat 🥩 (a nourishing, evolutionary food) in the same box as 🚬 to solve a contemporary health challenge, would be basing policy on assumptions rather than robust data.

1/ Granted, some studies have pointed to ASSOCIATIONS of HIGH intake of red & processed meats with (slightly!) increased colorectal cancer incidence. Also, @WHO/IARC is often mentioned in support (usually hyperbolically so).
But, let’s have a closer look at all this! 🔍

2/ First, meat being “associated” with cancer is very different from stating that meat CAUSES cancer.

#GW1 “A strategy in place”
Kept an eye on preseason games & formulated what I thought was a solid strategy based on players form from last season (BIG mistake)
Decent start with 68 pts

Oh @cmrlofficial . Why so averse to learning? New stations, same old access problems. #Senior #Joyride thread - I spy with my jaundiced eye. #ChennaiMetro #A11y #Fails @DisabilityIndia
Really @chennaicorp ! This is the access to Nehru Park Chennai Metro station? At points the pavement itself is non existent with bus and Poonamallee High Rd traffic whizzing by. Senior citizen required support on both sides with parking 50 m away. @cmrlofficial @DisabilityIndia

Here’s my interpretation of ice from chemical composition to melt molecules to crystal hexagons. I couldn’t find my blue pens for sketching the #thinsection. Shush.
Vote ice!
