1/ Something very important is being missed in the Peter Murrell coverage. And it explains why Murrell was able to carry on the embezzlement long after he should have been stopped. And why John Swinney cannot hide behind the “victim of criminality” defence.🧵
2/ There are really two different stories about SNP finances which have ended up becoming unhelpfully conflated. The first story is about the crowdfunder money, which was supposed to be ringfenced for a future referendum campaign.
3/ The total amount of donations supposed to have been ringfenced ended up being £667k, according to a statement by Colin Beattie in June 2021. We know from contemporaneous reporting that the vast majority of this (£482k) was raised in the first half of 2017.

Long🧶Pierwsza grypa życia zostaje z nami na zawsze. Co to jest "grzech pierworodny" naszej odporności
Pisząc o tym, zawsze trochę się uśmiecham, bo nazwa, jaką nadano temu zjawisku w latach 60. zeszłego wieku, do dziś brzmi nieco frywolnie. Otóż w immunologii istnieje pojęcie Image
zwane original antigenic sin, czyli dosłownie "grzech pierworodny antygenowy". Termin ten wprowadził w 1960 roku Thomas Francis, jeden z największych wirusologów XX w. Francis był synem prezbiteriańskiego pastora i lubił niekiedy łączyć żartobliwą religijną metaforę z poważną
nauką. Stąd właśnie owa "pierwotna wina" w nazwie zjawiska.
A o czym to zjawisko mówi. W skrócie, nasz układ odpornościowy bardzo dobrze pamięta to, czego nauczył się jako pierwsze. I trzyma się tej pierwszej lekcji przez resztę naszego życia, czasem z naszą korzyścią, a czasem

Late Night with the Devil est ma meilleure découverte de l'année. Un huis clos horrifique et immersif au possible qui traite parfaitement de la déshumanisation face au grand show de la TV américaine. C'est mené d'une main de maître.

Je vais en parler plus longuement ⬇️ Image
Le film se présente comme un programme des années 1970, qui ne raconte pas seulement une histoire s'y déroulant, mais qui veut nous faire croire à une vraie histoire comme il y en a eu tant en cette période bénite pour les histoires paranormales aux USA.
On suit dès lors la retransmission d'une émission, celle d'Halloween 1977, présentée par un certain Jack Delroy. On apprend son histoire dès le début du film afin de mettre en abîme l'histoire.

My manager paid ₹1.5 crore for a 21th floor flat.
He sold it after 4 years.
Yesterday he told me everything. And he was ANGRY.
High-rise flat owners will NOT want to read this.

Reason 1 /13
They told me higher floors have no mosquitoes. Biggest scam ever.
Reason 2
Dust and Noise? Worse than ground floor. No trees or buildings to block it at that height.
Reason 3
Had Vitamin D deficiency at 37. Doctor couldn't believe it.
No terrace access. Only one side gets morning sun. He stopped going for morning walks because coming down just to walk felt too heavy.

The Kraków recall referendum may have given Poland’s opposition a new political weapon against Donald Tusk’s coalition government. 1/ 👇
Sunday's referendum that removed Kraków mayor Aleksander Miszalski of Donald Tusk' sCivic Coalition was driven by intensely local grievances: the city’s planned Clean Transport Zone, rising public transport ticket prices, parking charges, debt and frustration with the way the…

״סיפורו של מחדל״ - פרק 4:

מתישהו, בעוד כמה שנים, דמותה של ו׳ תעמוד כנראה במרכזה של עלילה קולנועית שתופק על 7 באוקטובר - אבל כזו שמבוססת, למרבה הטרגדיה, על סיפור אמיתי.
היא נגדת באמ״ו שעוקבת אחרי חמאס כבר שנים, בשנות הארבעים לחייה ומתגוררת בדרום. והיא היחידה, בכל צה״ל אולי, שקשרה באופן ישיר ומובהק בין תוכניות חמאס שהגיעו לצה״ל ב-2022, לבין מה שראו עיניה באימוני הנוח׳בה החריגים ב-2023.

הפרטים המלאים מהפרק ה-4 במיזם המיוחד שלנו בגלי צה״ל על מחדל 7 באוקטובר >>Image
1/ ערב חגי תשרי 2022, שר הביטחון גנץ אומר בסקירה בהרצליה: ״בדרום בסך הכל שקט. חמאס מורתע ממדינת ישראל, זה לא אומר שמעת לעת לא יהיה אירוע. איך אומרים תושבי העוטף בסלנג שלהם? אנחנו ב-99% גן עדן ו-1% שהוא קטסטרופה״ >>
2/ אבל באותם ימים, חגי תשרי 2022, חמאס בחר את המועד לאחוז האחד של הקטסטרופה: בימים האלה, תכנית ״חומת יריחו״ מוכנה להפעלה באופן מלא, ובהינתן פקודה - אפשר לצאת לדרך. ההחלטה כמעט התקבלה בחמאס, בישראל אפילו זיהו סימנים מעידים באותם ימים - סימים הופעלו, בדיקות קשר ופתיחת נכסי חירום >> Image

Sachez qu'en tant qu'élu local, installer durablement, efficacement des clims pour les enfants est un combat hallucinant que je ne mesurais pas.
Vous devez affronter :
- l'opposition vert-rose, décroissantiste
- les services des ministères (essentiels : sans les subventions d'état, on ne peut rien faire en France) qui donnent des consignes stupides en la matière
- les bureaux d'études d'archi qui gloussent quand
vous évoquez la chaleur 4 à 5 mois dans l'année.
- les agences d'état (oui, la fameuse ADEME) qui si elle ne vous labelise pas vous pouvez voir des subventions directes ou indirectes (financements ?) disparaître

1/7 Proč nemá Česko úrokové sazby jako v eurozóně? Odpovědí je r*. Je to odhad takové reálné úrokové sazby, která ekonomiku ani nebrzdí, ani nepřehřívá. Když jsou sazby centrální banky nad r*, měnová politika ekonomiku zpomaluje a naopak.
2/7 Jak se odhaduje r*? Model Holston-Laubach-Williams (HLW) se snaží r* dopočítat z dat o růstu ekonomiky, inflaci a úrokových sazbách. Problém je, že r* není možné přímo pozorovat – je to „skrytá“ veličina, podobně jako potenciální výkon ekonomiky.
3/7 HLW model předpokládá, že r* dlouhodobě souvisí hlavně s trendovým růstem ekonomiky. Rychle rostoucí ekonomiky mívají vyšší r*. Stárnoucí a pomalu rostoucí ekonomiky mají r* nízké.

📊El error gráfico que costó 7 vidas y una lección sobre el "Sesgo de Selección"
¿Sabías que el desastre del transbordador espacial Challenger en 1986 no ocurrió por falta de datos, sino por un error catastrófico al elegir cuáles datos mostrar?
Lecciones para tu próximo gráfico👇 Image
El 28 de enero de 1986, el transbordador Challenger se desintegró a los 73 segundos de su lanzamiento. No fue solo una falla de ingeniería física sino un trágico error en el análisis y la visualización de datos.
Te resumo la historia:👇 Image
La noche anterior al lanzamiento, los ingenieros estaban aterrorizados. Hacía un frío extremo en Florida (26ºF/-3ºC). Sabían que el frío congelaba las juntas, arriesgando una fuga mortal. ntentaron detener el lanzamiento pero resentaron gráficos erróneos. La NASA los rechazó. Image

[SIR JUDGMENT SUMMARISED]
Thread 👇

Supreme Court recognises Election Commission’s power to conduct Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls under Article 324 and Section 21(3) of the RP Act, while upholding the Bihar SIR.

The Court says EC can undertake a limited electoral inquiry into citizenship, but cannot finally determine citizenship. Deleted persons must be referred to the competent authority under the Citizenship Act #SIR #supremecourt @ECISVEEPImage
Judgment in a nutshell👇

• Supreme Court holds that the Election Commission has power to conduct Special Intensive Revision under Article 324 and Section 21(3) of the RP Act.

• The ruling arises from the Bihar SIR, but the legal principle laid down concerns the EC’s broader power to undertake SIR exercises.

• Court says SIR is a special statutory mechanism distinct from ordinary revision under Section 21(2) and Rule 25.

• Bench holds that free and fair elections depend on the integrity, accuracy and credibility of electoral rolls.

• Court finds the Bihar SIR was backed by legitimate constitutional purpose and was not merely an administrative exercise.

• SC holds that the SIR framework satisfies proportionality, given the safeguards of notice, hearing, objections, speaking orders and appeal.

• Court says inclusion in electoral rolls creates a rebuttable presumption of validity, not an absolute bar on verification.

• EC can examine citizenship only for deciding inclusion or exclusion from electoral rolls, not to finally declare citizenship status.

• Deletion on citizenship doubts does not mean the person is declared a non citizen. Final adjudication lies with authorities under the Citizenship Act.

• EC must refer persons deleted from the 2003 Bihar roll on citizenship grounds to the competent authority within four weeks.
[What favours the petitioners in the Supreme Court’s Bihar SIR ruling]

• Court clarifies EC cannot finally determine citizenship and its findings are confined only to electoral consequences.

• SC says inclusion in electoral rolls creates a rebuttable presumption in favour of existing electors.

• Bench directs that persons deleted on citizenship grounds must be referred to competent authorities under the Citizenship Act within 4 weeks.

• Court emphasises notice, hearing, speaking orders, appeals and judicial review as mandatory safeguards against arbitrary exclusion.

#SupremeCourt hears plea by the Central Bureau of Investigation seeking cancellation of bail granted to two persons accused of gangrape and parading women naked during the Manipur ethnic clashes of 2023. Image
Advocate: mylords wanted to hear the victims.

CJI: we have received disturbing reports, some innocent childrens were killed. CRPF opened firing, the other side opened firing.

advocate: trial is in process, earlier it was not progressing because victims were forced to appear. there was also translation issue because of Kuki language. there was application which said that victims were not ready to go to Guwahti. on last occasion, because internet was down, they could not join. one witness has been examined, two are left. 6-7 months, we would conclude trial
CJI: that may not be good ground to cancel bail

Advocate: there is no allegation as of now

J Bagchi: bail was granted because of lapse of CBI

Advocate for CBI: it may not be correct, sanction required some time.

With Sinead Watson and Kara Dansky losing their accounts to scammers I wanted to post a quick thread highlighting some indicators from the emails she received and how to keep your accounts safe.

1/9
Before that though, I want to emphasize that email in general should keep you on medium/high alert. Most sites and apps will communicate with you through their own notification systems.

2/9
The first red flag I see in the email is this broken English. I don't expect that scammers will make mistakes like this too often as they start using AI more and more to craft their emails, but that in itself makes this red flag redder.

Different parts of India are witnessing soaring temperatures and the challenges that come with it. This heat is harsh on all of us and I urge you all to take as many precautions as possible. Please stay hydrated, keep water with you when stepping out. Offer a glass of water to others. In weather like this, such kindness goes a long way.
Watch for signs of heat exhaustion like dizziness, nausea or extreme fatigue. If someone around you feels unusually unwell, weak or develops a headache, it is best to help move them to a cool and shaded place immediately. Ensure they get water, ORS etc. that helps them. Children, the elderly and those working outdoors are especially vulnerable during extreme heat. Ignoring these warning signs can quickly turn dangerous and may even lead to heatstroke. In such weather, timely care and attention go a long way.
Whenever possible, call and check on elderly parents, grandparents and loved ones during this heatwave. Remind them to stay hydrated, avoid stepping out in peak afternoon hours and take rest whenever possible.

BIHAR SIR

Supreme Court to shortly pronounce its verdict in the batch of petitions challenging the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls in Bihar. Image
CJI Surya Kant begins reading from the judgment. Image
CJI: SIR is NOT IN CONFLICT with the Representation of the People Act, 1950 and the Rules framed thereunder. The impugned SIR does not supplant the Representation of the People Act and the Rules. Rather, it breathes life into the constitutional mandate under Article 324 within the precise statutory contours provided by Section 21(3). Therefore, it cannot be said that the Commission has acted in excess of its statutory powers.
