These ‘glass straw’ optical fibres could speed up the Internet

A cable design that sends light through air, rather than solid glass, could cut signal loss and make long-distance transmissions cheaper.

Hitchcock's timeless horror might not be his very best but it remains a genuinely disturbing watch, perhaps even more than 'Psycho'. Ornithophobes need not apply. As ever, thanks for the support and I'd appreciate the odd #boost if you feel like it. 👍

Should I Watch..? 'The Birds' (1963)

It might not Hitch's best film but it has proved to be hugely influential in the years since its release, not to mention scaring generations of viewers. Benjamin Cox can't help but admire it.

Today in Labor History September 4, 1970: Socialist Salvador Allende was elected President of Chile. As president, he tried to nationalize major industries, expand education and improve conditions for the working class. On September 11, 1973 (the other 9/11), he was ousted in a coup by Augusto Pinochet, leading to a dictatorship that lasted until 1990. Thousands of workers, socialists, union members and activists were killed, including folk singer Victor Jara, who continued to sing, as his torturers beat him up, mashed his fingers in front of thousands of other prisoners in the Estadio Chile. He sang “Venceremos” (We Shall Win) through split lips. Before being riddled with 40 bullets, he managed to compose the song “Estadio Chile” and get it smuggled out; "How hard it is to sing when I must sing of horror. / Horror which I am living, horror which I am dying." The coup and dictatorship were supported by the CIA, and by President Nixon, and by the Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger, who later won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Here's is an interview & rare live footage of Jara singing his classic: El Derecho de Vivir en Paz.

We are getting dumber as a society

Italian dockers'unions have launched a clear warning to #IOF forces that so far have illegally assaulted in international waters all humanitarian flotillas heading to Gaza to deliver food and medical supply to the starving civilian hostages..

The #SUMUD, the largest flotilla so far sent to save Gazans from slow starvation will soon leave Barcelona with her 12 ships and is due to reach international waters 20 miles away from #Gaza mid-September.

The movement of dockers and theirs unions here vow that if they stay 20 minutes with no news from the flotilla, if for 20 mn contact is lost for whatever reason, they will immediately cease the work in Genova and in other Italian harbors.

Genova, it is every year 14.000 containers with Israelian ports for destination.

"20 minutes without direct radio contact with our comrades from the Sumud and Italian dockers will cease the work immediately.
I wrote it down so I wouldn't forget, 20 minutes without contact and not a nail , not a single box will reach Israel, nothing !"

.
Our Western governments have been following the orders of their USA puppet-master for way too long

It is high time the people show them where the real power stands : power stands in our own hands and ability to unite.

United we stand, divided we fall.
