Giovedì 17 luglio, dalle 21:30, presso il Parco delle Ginestre in via Salita di Oriolo a Faenza, torna la Binocular Classroom: lezioni di astronomia pratica svolte all'aperto, osservando il cielo col binocolo. Spesso ignorato e sottovalutato, un buon binocolo può dare soddisfazioni osservando la Via Lattea, la Luna e altri oggetti celesti, e per gli appassionati di astronomia dovrebbe essere il primo strumento a cui approcciarsi, e non il telescopio, come alcuni possono pensare.
Ad ogni partecipante verrà affidato in prestito un binocolo 8x40, una torcia a luce rossa e un astrolabio. I partecipanti verranno guidati, da astrofili esperti, nell'osservazione autonoma del cielo con il binocolo, ricevendo nozioni base di astronomia, e osservando vari oggetti celesti interessanti. A fine serata verrà consegnata una dispensa.
Indicato per adulti di tutte le età, e ragazzi sopra i 12 anni.
I posti sono limitati, ed è necessaria la prenotazione attraverso i contatti disponibili sul sito www.astrofaenza.it
In caso di maltempo, l'incontro sarà rimandato alla prima data utile, che verrà comunicata a coloro che hanno prenotato.
Per chi è impossibilitato a partecipare in questa data, si consiglia di contattare il Gruppo Astrofili Faenza, che raccoglierà adesioni e preferenze per eventuali date alternative o future.
E' previsto un contributo spese (a serata, per persona) di 10€ per le dispense e la manutenzione dei binocoli, ridotto a 8€ per i minori di 16 anni, e gratuito per i soci ARAR e Gruppo Astrofili Faenza.
L'incontro è organizzato dal Gruppo Astrofili Faenza in collaborazione con ARAR (Associazione Ravennate Astrofili Rheyta), UAI (Unione Astrofili Italiani), Foto Flash e Nital.
Si ricorda che nonostante il caldo diurno, di notte la temperatura può abbassarsi notevolmente rispetto al giorno, specialmente in aperta campagna. Per passare una serata piacevole, si consiglia di portare un giacchetto e/o qualcosa per coprirsi all'occorrenza

Hey CM, just so you know, this is why we consider you one of the dumbest, most useless motherfuckers alive. You accuse me of not reading TASS critically regularly, but here you are unable to distinguish between the following
- my statement about what I heard re: Druze hospital massacre
- TASS reiterating the statement of the new ISIS government which allegedly committed the massacre
- TASS statements about the event themselves
How does it feel to be so obsessed with making your stupid little comments that you can't even read? Maybe consider doing something with your life. Any mental image I form of your behaviors makes me ill. I can't even pity you

Donbass on the Brink: Russia’s Summer Offensive is Shattering Ukraine’s Defenses
Donbass on the Brink: Russia’s Summer Offensive is Shattering Ukraine’s Defenses
The war in Ukraine has entered its new phase in the summer of 2025, with Russian forces intensifying offensives across...Anonymous103 (South Front)
Germany invaded Poland, and in response, the USSR went into Poland to keep Germany from occupying all of Poland, which would have broken the agreement regarding “spheres of influence.” In fact, Germany did break that agreement, and the “parade” was about Germany withdrawing from its overreach into the USSR’s “sphere.”
It marked the withdrawal of German troops to the demarcation line secretly agreed to in the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, and the handover of the city and its fortress to the Soviet Red Army.
Once Germany entered Poland, all of Poland would have been occupied by the Nazis if the USSR did nothing, and that would have put the German forces right on the USSR’s border.
And why did generous general Stalin agree to that whole spheres of influence thing in the first place? If he wanted to protect poor Poland from the evil Germanz, surely telling the world about Hitler's evil plans would have been even better? Or at least warning Poland.
But hm, strange, nothing of the sort was done. One could get the impression generous general Stalin didn't care for the plight of the common polish citizen that was just to be unleashed on them.
If he wanted to protect poor Poland from the evil Germanz, surely telling the world about Hitler’s evil plans would have been even better? Or at least warning Poland.
This assumes that 1) Poland was somehow unaware of what its neighbor was up to and 2) the USSR was aware and chose not to tell them. Those are some big assumptions.
That Germany was very likely going to invade Poland was hardly a secret. Why else would the USSR have two weeks before offered Britain & France to send in a million of its troops to kill the baby while it was still in the crib? And why did they wait until that offer was refused before signing a non-aggression pact with Germany, a week before Germany invaded?
"Had the British, French and their European ally Poland, taken this offer seriously then together we could have put some 300 or more divisions into the field on two fronts against Germany - double the number Hitler had at the time," said [Major General] Lev Sotskov, who joined the Soviet intelligence service in 1956. "This was a chance to save the world or at least stop the wolf in its tracks.""It was clear that the Soviet Union stood alone and had to turn to Germany and sign a non-aggression pact to gain some time to prepare ourselves for the conflict that was clearly coming," said Gen Sotskov.
It was only two years later, following Hitler's Blitzkreig attack on Russia in June 1941, that the alliance with the West which Stalin had sought finally came about - by which time France, Poland and much of the rest of Europe were already under German occupation.
The USSR had known for years that Nazi Germany was going to eventually try to destroy it. The Anti-Comintern pact had been signed six years before. Destroying communism was one of Nazi Germany’s primary goals, which is why first they came for the Communists. The USSR agreed to the Pact in order to buy itself time to built up its military for the inevitable invasion attempt by Germany.

On March 17 [1939] the British Government suddenly remembered the existence of the Soviet Union and inquired what its attitude would be toward the Hitler threat in Eastern Europe. Moscow replied promptly and proposed an immediate conference between Britain, France, the U.S.S.R., Poland, Rumania and Turkey to consider how to resist German aggression. This was exactly and obviously what was urgently needed. Nothing less than a drawing together of all the threatened states could be of any avail. Rumania was under intense pressure to turn over her economy to Germany and the quickest action was needed.
However, the Chamberlain clique could not make the shift. Knowing that they wanted to solve the Nazi menace on the plains of Russia, they ascribed to Russia the very same design of which they were guilty, as devious men so often do. They had a “deep seated conviction,” shared also by the French Rightists, that Russia wished to destroy the capitalist system in Europe by provoking a war from which she would remain aloof.5 The entire diplomatic record of the past five years belied this self-justifying suspicion. It showed that Russia was desperately anxious to avoid war, but also that on every occasion, without exception, she had sought to avoid war for herself by combining with others to prevent aggression or nip it in the bud. It was Russia which had incessantly pleaded that “peace is indivisible,” warning that if war came all would be engulfed in it.
All this had meant nothing to conservative men bent on making terms with fascism and preserving it. Now, therefore, Chamberlain hesitated a week until Rumania capitulated and on March 18 notified Russia that her conference proposal was “premature.” This was the same rebuff given to Russia when she had proposed a conference a year earlier, at the time of Hitler’s conquest of Austria. Again there was no hurry, but this time Chamberlain did propose a substitute plan whereby Britain, France, Russia and Poland would consult if any further acts of aggression were believed to be imminent, but even this proposal was abortive, since it was at once learned, says Chamberlain’s biographer, that “Poland would refuse contact with the Soviet, which alone was enough to prevent us from taking up the Russian proposal for a six-power conference.” Chamberlain did not blame the Polish Government. He confided to his diary, on March 26: “I must confess to the most profound distrust of Russia,”6

He literally did try to warn about the fascist threat repeatedly and was constantly rebuked by the west due to anti-communism and "appeasement" politics.
They also weren't in a position to go on an offensive against Germany all alone if that's what you're gonna suggest next.
Their only option was a deal along these lines to buy time for themselves to build up productive forces.

In her closing speech, #FrancescaAlbanese, #UN special rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied #Palestinian territory, said: "These aren't just measures but are lifelines for a people who are under relentless assault and a world that has been paralysed for too long.""These 12 states have taken a momentous step forward," #Albanese added. "The clock is now ticking for states, from Europe to the Arab world and beyond, to join them."

To kickstart that process, the group said that 12 states from across the world - Bolivia; Colombia; Cuba; Indonesia; Iraq; Libya; Malaysia; Namibia; Nicaragua; Oman; Saint Vincent and the Grenadines; and South Africa - have committed to implementing the six measures immediately through their domestic legal and administrative systems.The six measures are as follows:
- Prevent the provision or transfer of arms, munitions, military fuel, related military equipment, and dual-use items to Israel.
- Prevent the transit, docking, and servicing of vessels at any port…. in all cases where there is a clear risk of the vessel being used to carry arms, munitions, military fuel, related military equipment, and dual-use items to Israel.
- Prevent the carriage of arms, munitions, military fuel, related military equipment, and dual-use items to Israel on vessels bearing our flag… and ensure full accountability, including de-flagging, for non-compliance with this prohibition.
- Commence an urgent review of all public contracts, to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation of the Palestinian Territory and entrenching its unlawful presence.
- Comply with obligations to ensure accountability for the most serious crimes under international law, through robust, impartial and independent investigations and prosecutions at national or international levels, to ensure justice for all victims and the prevention of future crimes.
- Support universal jurisdiction mandates, as and where applicable in national legal frameworks and judiciaries, to ensure justice for victims of international crimes committed in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
Hmm no China in this list. Disappointing. But this is real progress.

How to turn off Gemini on Android — and why you should
Google is quietly rolling out its Gemini AI tool as the default assistant on Android, even on devices where users never explicitly enabled it. In many cases, Gemini replaces Google Assistant by default, making it increasingly challenging to disable fully.
This deep integration means Gemini can still be active in the background, accessing your apps, system features, and personal info.
Here's what Gemini can access:
Gmail
Google Calendar
Google Drive & Docs
Maps, Keep, Tasks
Messages, Phone, and even WhatsAppEven more concerning:
Your data is used to train Google’s AI.
Human reviewers may see your chats.
Data can be shared with 3rd parties.
As of July 2025, Gemini stays connected to apps even when activity tracking is turned off.🛑 You can’t fully disable Gemini, but you can limit it:
How to limit Gemini on Android:
Turn off activity tracking
Revoke permissions
Uninstall it (if possible)Further options, if you’re privacy-conscious:
Reduce your reliance on Google services or fully de-Google
Consider a privacy-first OS like GrapheneOS or CalyxOS⚠️ Google is making Gemini the default assistant for all Android devices by the end of 2025.
Choose privacy over AI surveillance.
If you want tools that respect your data, ensure you use encrypted email, a private calendar, and a secure cloud, with no AI training or human review.

The problem I have with disabling or turning off permissions is that it assumes that Google respects you enough to honour your requests and actually disable them.

Unfortunately, it's very hard to trust any such list. If he had any sense, he would have also added a few extra names over the years of people who he just didn't like, or those he wanted to manipulate. Scumbags be scumbaggy, whether rich or poor.
That said, all implications and accusations should be thoroughly investigated, and if corroborated by victims and/or witnesses, and then be brought to public trial or just made public if the reasonably accused is dead.
