“Is there an honorable non-violent means towards mourning and remembering who and what we loved?”

For #911Anniversary, I share this from poet June Jordan’s a keynote at Barnard in November 2001 about the attacks.
Keynote: Some of us did not die.

In examining how those who survived can best honour those killed, Jordan quotes Holocaust survivor Elly Gross: “I guess it was my destiny to live...To live means you owe something big to those whose lives are taken away from them” #911Anniversary
June Jordan urges resisting a “rally Around Caesar”and instead “rally around an emergency/militant reconstruction of a secular democracy consecrated to the equality of each and every living one of us.” #911Anniversary

The Seven Necessary Sins For Women and Girls is a ‘fed-up, rage-fueled “big fuck-you to the patriarchy,”’ says @PublishersWkly which included my new book in its Big Indie Books of Fall 2019 publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/ne…

Sahar, an #Iranian football fan who set herself on fire, has died. She set herself on fire after her trial, for attempting to enter a football stadium disguised as a man, was postponed. #Iran regularly stops women from entering stadiums. bbc.com/news/world-mid… h/t @lacunalingua
Sahar - not her real name - became known as blue girl" - a reference to the colours of her favourite team, Esteqlal of Tehran. She was arrested in March when she tried to enter a football stadium.
Football's governing body Fifa set a deadline of August 31 for #Iran to allow women into stadiums - something the country has not kept.

While the sporting ban is not written into law, it is "ruthlessly enforced says @hrw Human Rights Watch.

Public opinion polling has very serious consequences on the reality of governance and policy. A thread about the UK and the US. 1/n
I should start by saying, polling is largely accurate. When done properly and read correctly, public opinion polling gives us a very clear understanding of what the public thinks. 2/n
That said, this is a story of how polling influences governments and policy. It begins in January 2013. 3/n

Just experienced small instance of "algorithms of oppression." For me, Amazon's search bar corrected" Kimberlé" as in "Kimberlé Crenshaw" to "Kimberly,"
To be fair, searching for "Kimberly Crenshaw" does bring up Kimberlé Crenshaw's books, but couldn't help but notice the algorithm wanted to "correct" her first name before they knew who I was searching for.
Kimberlé Crenshaw's new book comes out in September. That's the info I was looking for.

#New Traders, Understand #Mathematics Of #Profit In Market Before You Put Hard #Earned Money On Risk.

Expectancy = Success Rate x Reward Risk Ratio

Lets Talk About Expectancy Of Short Term Directional Trading System.

Read On (1/n)
Success Rate = No Of Profitable Tades/ No Of Loss Making Trades

Reward Risk Ratio = Average Profit Per Trade / Average Loss Per Trade

If Success Rate is 0.5 and Reward Risk 2, Then

Expectancy = 2 x 0.5 =1

For Making Profit, Expectancy Should Be Positive Number (2/n)
To Calculate Expectancy, You Need Defined System With Rules To Get Success Rate and Reward Risk. If You Have No System To Take Decisions, You Are Hanging In Thin Air and Will Never No Whether You Will Keep Making Or Loosing Money In Future (3/n)

A little thread about the SARA DOUGLASS BOOK SERIES AWARD. Obviously named after much missed Voyager trailblazer Sara Douglass, this award was implemented in the 2015 judging year to celebrate and acknowledge that many fine spec fic works need to be read as an entire series.
The first year covered series that CONCLUDED in 2011/12/13/14 - the shortlist (aurealisawards.org/2016/02/17/ann…) and winner (aurealisawards.org/2016/03/25/the…) were chosen from 55 series entered (ampost 200 books in total).
A series is eligible for the Sara if it is considered CONCLUDED during the eligibility period - this year, that means series ending in 2015, 2016 or 2017.

And who said: "unconditional direct income support to farmers is manifestly absurd in today’s world when it maintains uncompetitive farming practices that have negative implications for the climate, the environment or people’s health"?
