Experience: I steal from museums I don’t consider myself a thief but an activist. I believe these objects should be given back to the African people they were taken from. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2020/nov/20/experience-i-steal-from-museums

We hear 6 speakers of standard English from different areas: Smithfield Virginia, Green Bay Wisconsin, Brooklyn New York, North Andover Massachussets, and Dallas Texas. I've never heard of some of the dialect features demonstrated in this film, and think they must have been lost by the current day. It's too bad the speakers here are only asked to repeat single words and simple phrases, it would be interesting to hear longer dialogues. It also looks like it was live and unrehearsed, and sometimes the guests don't give the answer the host expects! Presented by linguist Henry Lee Smith Jr.

Three decades ago, when the Chinese central government announced it would help Shanghai develop parts of the city east of the Huangpu River, known as Pudong, the area could barely be called urban. That feels like a long time ago now. Today, Pudong is an icon of Chinese modernity, a center of world finance and trade, a tech hub, and home to an instantly recognizable skyline dominated by the Oriental Pearl Tower and the Shanghai Tower. It even has a Disney theme park. http://www.sixthtone.com/news/1005495/pudong-pointilism-snapshots-from-a-district-transformed

Unmanned vaccination booths are already being used in the central Henan province, and the system’s creators hope they will ultimately be put into use across the country. Produced by French pharmaceutical giant Sanofi, the cabins resemble a higher-tech version of a photo booth. After entering the cabin, users receive a temperature check, fill out a health questionnaire, and then place their arms in a robotic stirrup that administers the injection. The entire process takes around 10 minutes. http://www.sixthtone.com/news/1006412/robot-inoculators-accelerate-chinas-vaccine-rollout

Umro je Robert Fisk. Iako je poslednjih decenija bio pristrasan prema Asadu, ipak je bio vrhunski novinar, i jedan od ljudi koji su obeležili - i donekle objasnili - 20. vek.

Odlična vizualizacija širenja koronavirusa u različitim scenarijima: At present, health authorities recognize three vehicles of coronavirus transmission: the small droplets from speaking or coughing, which can end up in the eyes, mouth or nose of people standing nearby; contaminated surfaces (fomites), although the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicates that this is the least likely way to catch the virus, a conclusion backed by the European Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (ECDC) observation that not a single case of fomite-caused Covid-19 has been obser

How the U.S. betrayed the Marshall Islands, kindling the next nuclear disaster Five thousand miles west of Los Angeles and 500 miles north of the equator, on a far-flung spit of white coral sand in the central Pacific, a massive, aging and weathered concrete dome bobs up and down with the tide. Here in the Marshall Islands, Runit Dome holds more than 3.1 million cubic feet — or 35 Olympic-sized swimming pools — of U.S.-produced radioactive soil and debris, including lethal amounts of plutonium. https://www.latimes.com/projects/marshall-islands-nuclear-testing-sea-level-rise/

Davno sam tuda išao, pa ne znam kako je sada. Nekada se moralo presedati u Ankari. Veoma detaljna mapa turskih železnica postoji na zvaničnom sajtu, ali potrebno je nešto truda i vremena da bi se dešifrovala Evo je:

Early British settlement of the American colonies came in four distinct waves, from different places. Puritans, Cavaliers, Quakers, and Borderers had their own ideas of what America should be. Some of the cultural fault lines in today's America can be traced back to those differences. https://bigthink.com/strange-maps/four-folkways

Možemo li da ne zatrpamo i ovu temu raspravom o tome treba li emigrirati na zapad ili na istok? Napisano je dosta korisnih i relevantnih informacija o prijavi boravka u inostranstvu, šteta da se to sad zagubi u večito istoj diskusiji. Diskutujte u onoj temi koju smo napravili specijalno za to. Hvala.

Hvala ti. Već sam se zabrinuo da je neka velika cifra
