Return to the very American ideal of labor rights as human rights
Congressmen Keith Ellison and John Lewis have introduced a bill to establish the organization of trade unions as a civil right.
"Just as unions die, die, the middle-class jobs," said Ellison, a Democrat from Minnesota and vice chairman of the Progressive Caucus in Congress.
Therefore I proudly together with the civil rights icon John Lewis staff the Enabling Act before.
This groundbreaking law gives workers the same legal possibilities in cases of discrimination because of the organization of trade unions, as with other forms of discrimination - and so will stop anti-union set forces.
Supplementing the national labor law law to create an opportunity for discrimination exposed workers to organize a union representative to a civil court to sue for justice - and to obtain damages or fines - is a sensible and necessary initiative.
But it's certainly not a radical initiative - at least not by American standards.
In fact, the best way is to understand what suggest Ellison, Lewis and the other sponsors of their bill that would link back to a very American idea.
Despite the setbacks, which the unions have been exposed in recent years - in Wisconsin, Michigan and other states across the country - have Americans once countries around the world encouraged to recognize workers' rights to expand and to be observed.
There was a time, to the millions of Americans still remember when this country called democracy, freedom of speech, press freedom and the right to organize in the same breath.
When the United States occupied after World War II Japan, encouraged General Douglas MacArthur and his staff the country to adopt a constitution which should ensure that the militarized autocracy Hedki Tojo would be replaced by democracy.
In full awareness of the fact that the workers and their trade unions took a role in the creation of a new Japan, they used a language that explicitly recognized that "the rights of workers are guaranteed of association and collective bargaining and action."
When the United States occupied after World War II Germany, urged General Dwight Eisenhower David and his staff the Germans to write a constitution that would ensure that the fascism of Adolf Hitler would be replaced by a strong democracy.
In recognition of the fact that the workers would have to organize, and should raise their voice in the new nation, the Germans added a clause that explicitly testified: "The right to form associations to the working and economic conditions secure and will improve each individual and each profession or trade guaranteed.
Agreements that restrict this right or aim it is to reduce null and void; it targeted measures are unlawful.
As the former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt presided over the International Commission on Human Rights held, by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was designed, as it was taken over by the United Nations as a global agreement in 1948 added Roosevelt and the other author of a guarantee a that " everyone has the right to form trade unions for the protection of his interests or to join them. "
For generations, Americans accept the basic premise that labor rights are human rights.
As this country other countries to discuss how they could form civil and democratic societies, declared Americans, that the right to form a union - and that this union then could take part in collective bargaining as an equal partner with companies and government agencies - to be protected must.
Having these rights in America came under fire, it is actually very wise, to the American ideal to perform again in mind, according to which working people must have the right to unite and make their voices heard in a free and open society.
As Pastor Martin Luther King Jr., fifty years ago said:
History is a great teacher.
Now all know that the workers' movement, the strength of the nation is not restricted, but enlarged.
By raising living standards of millions of people working has created miraculously a market for industry and lifted the entire nation to unimaginable levels of production.
Those who attack the work forget these simple truths, but history preserves.
The history remembers, and we should do well.
The formal recognition of labor rights as human rights - and the enhancement of the protection of citizens' rights to protect against discrimination in the establishment of employee representation - is long overdue.
Keith Ellison and John Lewis to renew the ideals that have made America great in the past and the promise of democracy cashed.
Judge temporarily stops law that all abortion clinics in Louisiana could force the closure
A US federal judge on Sunday stopped provisionally the implementation of a law in Louisiana, said of the lawyers that it would probably have led to the closure of all five abortion clinics of the state.
This measure, which has been made into law by Bobby Jindal, the governor of Louisiana, in June and September 1, will come into force, would doctors who perform abortions, compel a patient enrollment right at a hospital within a radius of 30 miles to acquire their practice.
The decision of the judge, however, means that doctors can continue for the time being legally perform abortions, while they apply for such a right.
"The plaintiff may lawfully continue to work, as they strive to obtaining these rights," wrote federal judge John deGravelles in its judgment.
Within a month a hearing for the judge is set to bring about a more permanent decision for the law.
Abortion advocates welcomed the decision, the latest in a series of rulings against similar measures and said that doctors would gain more time in order to gain admission to hospital privileges.
"Today's decision means that the women in Louisiana missed a sneaky law that will take them their health and their rights," said Nancy Northup, president and chairman of the Center for Reproductive Rights, which sued on behalf of three of the five hospitals of the State had to stop the law.
It was not immediately clear whether the judgment extended also to the doctors of the two hospitals that had the action not connected and also requested briefing rights.
Louisiana is one of 11 states that have adopted similar laws, which courts have recently declared such measures in Alabama and Mississippi for not constitutional.
Key points of a law in Texas that most of the remaining hospitals in the state have been forced to shut down, stopped by a federal judge on Friday.
Abortion advocates and the American College of Gynecologists and Ostretricians and the American Medical Association agree in saying that briefing rights of doctors demand unnecessary restrictions.
Abortionists response to this is that the measures are designed to protect the health of women, although some also welcomed the effects of closure of hospitals.
Only a doctor who performs abortions in Louisiana has, over Patienteineinweiserechte, said the Center for Reproductive Rights.
If all the other doctors in the state to be forced to perform any more abortions, this doctor would no longer carry out of fear for his safety, the operation, the group said.
In their argument against the judgment said representatives of the State of Louisiana, that they would punish any doctors for performing abortions, while their applications were pending on patient referrers True.

For older women and those whose cancer was more advanced at diagnosis, the survival rate was lowest.
For those who lived in rural and remote regions of the state, the risk of death during the study was 20 percent higher than for those in urban areas.
Although the study did not examine why women living outside the city are more likely died of ovarian cancer, Dr. Jordan suspected a delayed diagnosis and the lack of access to the best treatment centers as possible factors for it.
"This disease is best treated by gynecologic oncologists, and these are mostly to be found in major cities," she said.
Despite the improvement of telemedicine services, to oppose the distances something she suggested as a possible remedy a gain of service flown in doctors before to give specialists the opportunity to provide women closer to their home, as well as treatment programs for people living outside their region.
Dr. Jordan said that the study regardless of geographic status a poor long-term survival rate in women of ovarian cancer revealed and underlined the need for better treatment and prevention strategies.
The funded by Rio Tinto Ride to Conquer Cancer study is published today in the Medical Journal of Australia.
In March 2013 told Elisha Neave, a young mother of 33 years from the Gold Coast, that she had an aggressive form of ovarian cancer.

Matthies says: It's time for big-linking
Given the galloping technological progress, which threatens to transform our cozy home in high-tech control centers, our columnist Bernd Matthies comfort with a very familiar electronic accessories.
While I write this, my eyes fall on the spiral cord connecting the handset to the phone, and I think: Wow, how retro is that?
But behind it is a consideration if the cable would not, all listeners would quickly abandoned flying around in the house, and that would be much more retro.
Anyway, yes applies to the ekeltronischen (ekeltronischen?
No, typo: electronic) sector, the rule that the world premiere of the electronic waste of tomorrow today is bought, - outdated.
And who, for example, still has a tube TV in the living room, so who says only that it rejects television principle.
Why these thoughts?
Because it takes us are pressing for the Ifa am Funkturm again this week our absolute incompetence in matters of electronics in mind.
The layman, the earlier washing machine and CD player blindly dominated, today does not understand even the purpose of the devices that are spread with incredible vain expert hands in front of him: "Connected Home, wearables, Healthcare and Urban Technologies" promises the press office.
Yes, it's even?
What should we talk to people who apparently volunteered to spread such a quark?
Basically, for about 20 years it's all particularly important that we should kindly connect our house.
Thus, the yogurt itself ordered so that tells us the fire alarm on holiday in the Maldives that it burns degree in the study.
And would not it be wonderful if we from the office air conditioning to our imminent arrival ...?
Yes, however, requires air conditioning.
But a dream is certainly true soon: We raise our watch, you say out loud "sucking" - And at home drives off the Staubsaugroboter.
Astray.
Everything runs on nothing less than a revolution addition: "The boundaries between white and brown goods blur", whispers an industry insider, you can connect the machine with a headset, the steamer will send the weather report and the data goggles indicates how long the pizza in oven still needs, but nothing good is because we are in a traffic jam.
From daily practice we also know: When a newfangled device is sometimes really needed urgently, the battery is guaranteed empty.
What is another reason that the spiral cable is on the phone survive the next radio shows.

The style of the university was not this, it reads the statement.
So the family Medau had already been "in mid-June verbally informed about the suggestion of the university.

It goes to the current state of 5.50 meters, which is one meter wider than before, "explains Pötzl.
The argument of Medau operators that their free and the school's parking areas are then used in the future only by students of the University, refuses to accept Pötzl.

Think of the residents

Rather, he points out, "that this is not just about the nursery, but also to the residents at the confluence of the Friedrich-Streib Street and the 800 pupils of the neighboring secondary school.
It is about much more than the particular interests gentlemen Medau "said Pötzl.

In early October 2020 will Pötzl inform together with the State Building Authority Bamberg city councils on the structural development of the university "and to address the importance of the new development in this regard".
Peer Medau had last week the parents of the nursery on the plans of the university informed.

Not chronological, but more thought scraps for scraps of thoughts, born on June 1, 1947 in Munich wrote down his memoirs, each chapter begin with a matching lyrics.
He is brutally honest: from masturbation as a schoolboy to shoplifting and drug use, he does not leave human weakness from.
Also, to show how he has learned tolerance in dealing with his fellow man himself.
Considerable space take abstract, but all the more important terms a: love, soul, ego, being in the now, spirituality - all this he tries to get to the bottom, very philosophical, but also a very personal way.
He also introduced his pacifism, his social criticism, his political activism - and also, as it has not only influenced the music (the opera lovers became the soul and rock musicians), but also his prison stay.
The latter has the bon vivant Konstantin Wecker closer brought the ascetic monk who created "by subtraction", as he says, "by omitting anything that is unnecessary".

Even as it is brutally honest.
Lenny Henry: My father never took me in his arms.
Never said "I love you"
Henry was one of seven children of a family of Jamaican immigrants in Dudley in the Midlands in the year 1958th
His father, who died when Henry was 19, worked in a factory and their relationship was limited.
Henry is rehearsing for a comedy, Rudy's Rare Records, partly based on an imaginary conversation with his father and from the series was on Radio 4.
The soundtrack is a mix of reggae and rap, with lively melodies.
But Henry had to work through some difficult childhood moments.
He visited "many" therapies after his mother's death, and Henry is thoughtful about his relationship with his father.
It was hard to know him.
You never saw his face, only heard his voice: "Listen to the noise on.
Let your sister in peace.
Move!
I want to watch cricket.
My older brothers Seymour and Hilton - who were already grown up when I was a child - went with him to the pub and talked about things like the shape of the beer glass, or the beauty of a cricket stroke.
I never had such a conversation with him.
A large part of my life it was this serious guy in the corner who was reading the newspaper.
Recently Henry opened a foundry in Dudley, and although the conditions are better than in the days of his father, he nevertheless won an insight into how life must have been for him.
It is now a little brighter, but they are dark, smoky, deep Stygian labyrinth with flame shock and smoke and lots of soot.
My father lay formerly simply into the tub and then you could hear him slowly as he began to sing, because he could wash the foundry itself.
When I walked around there, I realized that he had done for years, to bring the food to the table, and my respect for him grew.
Nevertheless, Henry grew up as a child without his parents' expressions of love.
My father never hugged me, he never said "I love you".
Only when there towards the end of her life suffered by my mother, we began to "I love you, I love you, I love you" to say.
By his own daughter Billie, with Dawn French, he was able to share the love that he had missed as a child.
Could you even with the "I love you" stop?
Stop it but to embrace me!
Dad, I'm 22!
with Dawn French.
Why should not we be friends?
She is a great mother.
It's still friends with French, with whom he was married for 25 years.
Dawn is a good person.
Why should not we be friends?
She is a great mother.
Henry's mother was diabetic.
That contributed to her death.
So when I very was very overweight and showed symptoms of diabetes, my doctor said, "You must be radical.
So I moved through this fitness thing and also had to make a drastic diet to reverse the symptoms.
It's very hard.
And it's exhausting.
No one likes to eat carrots.
Henry's career change is perhaps in its elegant, close-cropped beard.
Since he has been praised by critics for his Othello, he is paid to the theater.
This was followed by The Comedy of Errors, and then Fences by August Wilson.
That's a different experience than the sitcoms and comedies that have filled his busy working life.
He started only 16 years ago when he worked in a factory.
A DJ spotted him on the stage, as he imitated people and wrote to New Faces of him.
His television career began in the mid-seventies. "I was the only black impersonator / comedian on television for quite a long time."
He learned on the job.
I had to grow up not only before the public eye, but also learn from 1975 to 1985, as I was able to be an efficient jokes-narrative machine, while I was a star on television, and it was really difficult.
Lenny 1975 New Faces
As his manager the stage right at the Black and White Minstrel Show possessed a light entertainment program, in which the people "black anmalten", Henry led his comedy there over five years.
In my family it was very uncomfortable.
I wish somehow that it never happened, but I do not regret that I did it.
It was a weird, uncomfortable position for me, but I was working on big projects, and learned how to deal with a large audience.
But these "years of award-winning lightweight pillar of British television" was also a "grotesque parody of black people."
The introduction of characters that the British black culture both mocked as celebrated, Henry worked in the eighties to an alternative comedy circuit.
The first row of the Lenny Henry show went on the air in 1984, and in the nineties he has worked as the chef Gareth Blacklock in the comedy series Head! known.
Advertising, documentaries, TV series and movie roles marked his next decade, but after his BBC series LennyHenry.tv 2008, he thought to himself: "What are you doing next, Len, because it all feels like when you bring only the time rum or will walk a little on the spot. "
Thereafter, a documentary series for Radio 4 was titled What's So Great About ...?
The first episode turned to Shakespeare.
In Shakespeare I was downright allergic.
I had never learned in school right about him and held him for a domain predominantly middle-class whites in tights and a cabbage in front it.
So I was very afraid.
Everyone we interviewed for the show, Peter Hall, Trevor Nunn, Adrian Lester, Judi Dench said, "You should try it.
Do not make it bad if you do not know what you're talking.
Take a couple of words in his mouth, and then you'll understand why we all love Shakespeare so.
Henry led to 20 lines from Othello's last speech on the documentary and he was thrilled.
I had the feeling that I could do it.
It was almost as if someone had finally put my head right.
"That's what, it's a serious matter, take them seriously, learning your lines, researching a bit.
The samples were brutal, and I read this piece for months before we did.
And it was a success.
They seemed to expect a car accident and that just did not happen.
And soon he appeared in the comedy of errors.
Suddenly I was in the National Theatre and I could not believe it.
There was a moment when I thought, "Oh, you've changed." "
There was a technical error and Henry felt instinctively that he had to entertain the audience.
"A little voice told me," You have now bridged 10 minutes while they repair the computer. ""
Instead, the stage manager announced that the show would go on, once the problem had been solved.
I walked off the stage and something inside me said, "Oh, thank God."
I am not responsible for it.
I can leave someone else.
"You play in a play, so stay in your role."
Henry in Fences at the Duchess Theatre
To learn the text for Fences was demanding.
Panic is very good, which strengthens the tendons.
Also was well received, so it is like a big sign of the gods who tell me "This is your destiny." "
He says this, of course, with a thundering voice.
So I stick to it.
I really love that.
I love to be in a rehearsal room.
But Henry still has the head of a comedian - our conversation is permeated by humorous outbursts, while he imitates persons repeatedly.
I have decided not to make stand-up comedy, because I think that this kind of instant gratification of a room full of strangers is somehow dangerous.
If you are looking for the all the time, you go with it before a wall.
I step sometimes live at the Apollo when I feel like it, but overall it does not give me as much as before.
I ask him if he will ever again make a stand-up comedy tour.
The fun I had in a room with a director who helps to shape a beginning, middle and end of a journey - I do not think I want to give up ever again.
Is this so its new incarnation?
I think so.
I like being an actor.
It's fun.
One always tells a story, and that's great.
I love stories.
People love stories.
Houthi rebels in Yemen's capital block roads
In the conflict between Shiite Houthi rebels and the Yemeni government, the Houthis have called for civil disobedience in the capital Sanaa.

In the countryside, it always comes back to bloody fighting with the Yemeni army.
Kenya registered officials to curb "ghost employees"
Kenya has begun to all state officials to register biometrically to remove "ghost workers" from the payroll of the Government.
Employees who do not register in the next two weeks would no longer be paid, was a government announcement.
The government suspects that thousands of people still receive salaries even after their departure from public service.
President Uhuru Kenyatta promised when he took office in 2013, to combat corruption in the civil service.
When tested at the beginning of this year, it was found that at least $ 1 million (£ 700,000) per month were lost in payments for "ghost employees" and other abusive financial practices.
The government suspects that salaries will continue to be paid to accounts after a person has died or is leaving the Public Service, Wanyama Chebusiri reported for the BBC from the capital Nairobi.
All officials have to appear in the next two weeks at identification centers to ensure that their data is recorded on the biometric registration, was informed in a government message.
All that would not this would do without a plausible excuse be removed from the payroll, was the message on.
"This procedure is significantly contributed to the rationalization of the civil service by the actual number of civil servants is determined and also the payroll is adjusted on both levels of government - so are the" ghost employees "eliminated," said Anne Waiguru, the Cabinet Secretary in the Ministry of Decentralization and planning.

Children need roots and wings
44 years he was in the teaching profession, including 23 as a head teacher.
From that time Manfred Richter knows many seasoned Peter Hausener and Kollbacher from their time as students.
His methods were sometimes unconventional, but always supported by his quest to see the students humans.
Sněžka is the most famous mountain of the Giant Mountains.
Manfred Richter loves the painting with the motive of his home.
Richter was born in 1930 in Trutnov / North Bohemia, today Trutnov.
Already with 14 he became interested in after four years of high school for the teaching profession.
One year later, the Sudeten Germans were expropriated.
Within half an hour, the family had to leave their house.
After a few months in a camp it was in 1946 after Bayern - in the boxcar.
So was staggered judge the Upper Franconian village sinks.
The teacher training was held in Bamberg.
These Manfred Richter had six ten kilometers walk to the next station a week, take the train to Bamberg, there walk three kilometers through the city to school and back in the evening.
After two months, Manfred Richter was in a Red Cross home in Bamberg a sleeping: with up to 15 fellow students in a dormitory.
In 1951 he made the first and in 1954 after three years of teacher trainees the second state examination.
Since Upper Franconia for him had no vacant teaching position, he applied to Upper Bavaria and came on November 1, 1954, the school in Kollbach.
The "Miss-room" was his first "official residence" in the schoolhouse.
In 1958 he moved into the newly built house next to the school teacher a three-room service apartment.
This house was bought by Manfred Richter in 1980, after the school had been dissolved in 1968 Kollbach.
Until then there were in Kollbach in Schulverband Petershausen-Kollbach three classes and in Petershausen five.
From the school year 1968/69 these were summarized in Petershausen in today's town hall.
As the Schulverband Indersdorf was founded, only the primary school remained in place.
In order to avoid a downgrade in the now smaller school, joined the then Rector Georg Sigl to Karlsfeld - and Manfred Richter became his successor.
But Petershausen grew, and so the children and their teachers could relate to today's construction, from September 1982, which was extended by Judge retirement in 1997.
Manfred Richter praises the simple generosity of Mayor Ludwig Götz, who had also rely on community charges a workroom and a broader 1997 basements, although that was not eligible under the guidelines for school buildings.
"Mayor Götz was very friendly school," says Richter remembered gratefully.
In his whole career Manfred Richter has never forgotten the speech of a government representative who had responded to a presentation of a School Board on Law and Justice: "We must never forget the love." Manfred Richter sat around, what he had heard as a young teacher.
"You have to give to the children two things: roots and wings," says the now 84-year-old.
And he had to learn: "This does not always succeed". Whether he as only his students or just his own six children said, is not entirely clear.
In any case, the judge was doing sometimes unconventional.
When students started fighting, they received from him not as a detention and have not been sentenced to detention.
At the expense of the community had two pairs of judges can purchase boxing gloves and let the two rivals compete against each other, even if the baby you should have a violet.
For the benefit of the school used as a judge Rector a good relationship with the then Mayor Ludwig Götz (CSU).
This moved the non-party judges after retirement to 1996 to stand at least the last on the CSU list for the local council.
But Richter was selected in sixth place and joined the CSU.
180 kilometers in three days
HR4-BIKE RIDE 700 cyclists insert in the spa park of Bad Salzhausen and Scots stopovers
If cyclists make their tour in Bad Salzhausen or Scots snap, that's nothing special about it.
On Friday, however, made only the quantity of catch impression: The 700 participants of the bike ride hr4 including accompanying entourage enjoyed a break in the lower spa gardens in Bad Salzhausen and later a party under the open sky in Schottener Alteburg Park.
Under the motto "Biking and celebrate newfound paths between Nidda and Kinzig", the participants had met on Thursday in Bad Vilbel and there witnessed a concert by Van Baker & Band.
On Friday it became serious: The cyclists took the first stage, 60 kilometers above Florstadt to Bad Salzhausen and on to Scots in attack.
In Bad Salzhausen athletes from Mayor Hans-Peter Seum, who had started as well in Bad Vilbel by bicycle, and the director of the Own Plant Operation Bad Salzhausen, Petra swing Döring were welcomed.
For refreshment of body and mind had been prepared all sorts of good things: The countrywomen from Ranstadt and low-Mockstadt had 85 plates Apple, Zwetschen-, sprinkles and cheesecake baked that mundeten the capable cyclists wonderful.
"Such cakes can only rural women bake" praised one participant from Aulendiebach while he ordered another piece.
At the concession stand of Turnvereins Geiss-Nidda cold refreshments could be purchased.
The "Duo Bravo" entertained the visitors with familiar melodies from operettas and musicals and earned enthusiastic applause.
The beautiful surroundings of the park looked relaxing.
A gentleman also enjoyed a head massage from his partner: "he deserves, after all, he has already secured chipped bicycle chains again today."
Meanwhile had the mayor and the Betriebsleiterin still working: they were interviewed by the fountain in front of the Kurhaus of drinking reporter Rainer Janke and took the opportunity to advertise on the radio for Bad Salzhausen.
Also Promotion Chef Tobias Hagen, since the first hr4 bike ride in 2004 as tour leader here, could catch only briefly, he had plenty to do with the equipment on site.
His pickup truck in which he communicated via three telephones and a radio with its employees and the 15-member motorcycle squad of police Hesse, wrote Facebook messages and reports made, also needed a check.
"The majority of the participants comes from the Rhein-Main area," he said, "but also from casting or Fulda, Lauterbach or the Taunus and even from many cities in Westphalia cyclists arrived.
The number of participants depends a bit on the available accommodation capacities.
In Category I, the participants will be accommodated in hotels, in category II in collective centers.
From the resort of the cyclists had a good impression when they left again after one and a half hours: "Bye!"
"It was nice in Bad Salzhausen!" waved her goodbye.
Upon arrival in the Scottish group could take a short breather.
But in the evening the cyclists were required in the idyllic Old Castle Park.
Under the direction of Schottener Society for Tourism and City Marketing (GTS), the park had received a great party atmosphere and of course they had treats about Tarte with well chilled Federweißer prepared.
Mayor Susanne Schaab, GTS CEO Markus Hoßfeld and MSC Chairman Wolfgang Wagner-Sachs in his capacity as board member of the ADAC Hessen-Thüringen welcomed the visitors.
The three were visibly pleased with the "many operating in Scots".
DJ Tobias Hagen then released the dance stage.
The opportunity for sweeping move in the open air was used frequently despite the sporting activities on the bike.
Among the guests mingled increasingly citizens who were impressed by the good mood as well as the large group of cyclists.
On the second day were for cyclists stations Birstein, Wächtersbach and Bad Orb - including a concert with the Trenkwaldern - on the agenda.
Yesterday, after 180 kilometers pedaling, the athletes met again in Bad Vilbel.
Turkish police arrested dozens of "conspiring" against the government
A total of 33 police officers were arrested in Turkey on suspicion of "conspiracy against the government", report local media agencies.
The police authorities submitted no immediate comment.
Among those arrested are 14 high-ranking police officers, reports Hurriyet Daily News.
Some of them were involved in the corruption investigation against government employees, including four government ministers last December.
In July a series was arrested by Turkish police for allegedly founded an organized criminal group and tapped telephone numbers.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan (the then Prime Minister was) described their actions as part of the activities that are led by the Islamist clerics Fethulla Güllen against him and other persons in positions of power.
Not all children in the Ukraine will return to school
Schools almost everywhere in Ukraine opened on Monday (September 1st) after the summer holidays.
This day is traditionally an important day for families, and like thousands of other Ukrainian parents brought Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk his daughter to school.
There he told waiting journalists that not all schools had reopened, but that he was determined to defend the land for future generations:
The September celebrations were not held in each school.
The sky is not peaceful all over Ukraine.
We must fight for a peaceful sky.
The entire Ukraine, a huge joint Ukrainian People's Front has to fight for a peaceful sky.
Aleksan Pastukhow, headmaster of the school in Slavyansk who visited Jazenjuks daughter, spoke in Russian.
We hope that here at last at peace, and that the children receive an education that will be useful to them in later life.
The first day of school the new school year is traditionally celebrated, the children wear embroidered shirts, holding balloons in their hands and give their teachers flowers.
With Rona Fairhead, the BBC may have found the great director, she needs.
She arrives with a proud fame train of the banking world, the media management and the inner circle of the Tory party.
And it has its own combat experience.
Her career began with the global management consulting firm Bain and Co., after which she moved to Morgan Stanley, Bombardier, ICI and the media world of Pearson.
She was seven years Chief Executive of the Financial Times and stepped back as the top item of the parent company Pearson went to a younger male counterparts.
Your severance was allegedly almost £ 1 million.
Her political ranking is solid.
It was recommended by David Cameron, Lord Browne, the former head of BP, as this was looking for more private-sector expertise in Whitehall: it became a consultant of the Cabinet.
Her husband is a former Tory councilor.
As early as May, I described the task of the Chairman of a poisoned chalice.
Not only is the BBC as a huge and complex unity at the heart of public life, but there is also an internal paradox in its structure.
The Trust works in two directions: inwards towards the first guard of the own management hierarchy in the BBC, but also to the outside as the voice of public concern and unrest, when things go wrong.
This ensures an almost untenable duopoly, which requires a complete comprehensive reform.
But what new incoming chairman would risk to begin to embark on anything and dismantle an institution that is as complex as a Chinese dynasty, while this itself might bring about his job.
It is a difficult task.
And as if not enough, are also still many interested in the BBC reduced to see - obsolete power, money and status.
While the competition is getting closer and new technologies threaten old, comfortable collateral, the upcoming negotiation of royalties for the BBC is associated with special risks.
For the modest sum of £ 145.50 a year, the British public will buy into the certainly largest media companies in the world.
The BBC tells a good story: it says that it reaches 96 percent of all households and each of them only 40 pence per day costs.
And apparently increases the BBC on the popularity scale up again: 53 percent support today, compared to 31 percent 10 years ago.
The viewing and usage habits for the BBC have changed: nowadays I get news headlines on my phone and see missed programs later on my iPlayer.
But it remains a very beloved and respectable institution.
She needs a considerable chairman - I hope they found him.
Perry from Texas says that derogatory Tweet was not authorized
A tweet from the official account of the Republican Governor of Texas, Rick Perry, on Sunday contained a disparaging remark about the democratic district prosecutor who is the focus of a criminal charge against him for abuse of authority.
The tweet was later deleted and replaced by another of Perry's account, which denied the previous ones.
Just a Tweet from my account has been shipped, which was not authorized by me.
"I do not approve of the tweet and have cleared him," it said in the message later.
Employees of Perry did not respond immediately to requests for comments.
Although the tweets from Perrys official account went out, it was not clear who actually operated the feed.
In the previous Tweet an unfavorable image of the District Attorney of Travis County, Rosemary Lehmberg was drawn, who was sentenced in April 2013 for drunk driving.
Perry put a vetoed a funding her office, when she refused to resign, resulting in charges against Perry - led before a grand jury this month in Austin - could possibly be 2016 presidential candidate.
The text of the tweet reads: "I'm not always drunk with three times the permissible alcohol level ... but if I do, I accuse Governor Perry when he divulge it."
I am the drunkest Democrat in Texas.
Clay mound Office was not entrusted with the management of the investigation of the grand jury against Perry.
This was led by Michael McCrum, a special prosecutor from San Antonio, which was chosen by a Republican judge.
Perry pleaded not guilty and called the accusation a political trick.
Its high-class team of lawyers requested that the judge entrusted with the case, dismissed the charges, arguing that the law, will proceed with the against the senior governor in the history of Texas, is non Amended in accordance with diffuse.
Perry stopped $ 7.5 million of state funds to the Public Integrity Unit of the state - which is a resident in Travis County and in cases of public corruption in Texas determined - as Lehmberg refused to withdraw.
This veto caused a public complaint from a left-wing watchdog group.
Perry's official account is updated frequently - and sometimes famous.
After graduating at the caucuses in Iowa during his presidential candidacy in 2012 in fifth place, Perry spoke about speculation that he'll stop by posted a tweet a photo of himself while jogging near a lake, with the words "South Carolina , here we come! "
Berkeley declared housing market back to "normal"
One of the most prominent builders of London pointed out that the housing market in the south east of England was again "returned" to normal levels.
Homes in the capital were highly coveted and the subject of enormous price increases, which the Bank of England due to the widespread fear moved in front of a credit bubble to put ceilings on mortgage loans in June.
Tony Pidgley, founder and chairman of the high-class construction company Berkeley said on Monday: "Since the beginning of the current financial year, the market has returned to normal transaction levels since the peak in 2013", adding that it provided a "stable task environment".
The real estate market in London was well placed during the downturn, as foreign buyers thronged to the capital.
According to information from the land registry, the prices have risen in the metropolitan area alone last year jumped by 18.5 percent, far more than the average increase in England and Wales as a whole.
Average selling prices for Berkeley's private, inexpensive and student services rose by about one-fifth last year and were the end of April to £ 423,000.
A stronger pound has however made less attractive to foreign buyers in recent months real estate property in London - some of them have been put off by the introduction of new property taxes and political rhetoric about a possible "Villas control" before the general election next May.
The London Estate Agents Foxtons warned last week that the mortgage market report for April, were presented in the stricter lending rules, would in the second half also lead to lower market growth in terms of real estate sales as in prices.
New data from the Bank of England released on Monday showed a decline in the mortgage approval in July, which also suggests that the housing market cools.
Hamptions International, another real estate agency, downgraded its prediction for the rise in house prices in London in 2015 down to 3 percent, based on an already weakening house price consciousness.
The transaction volume in the most expensive areas of London as Chelsea, Mayfair and Kensington is now every year declined by a quarter, so the broker WA Ellis.
Nevertheless, the desire for a home in the capital for Berkeley is a blessing, because the amounts due for forward sales amount to more than 2.2 billion pounds.
Mr. Pidgley added: "The demand for the right, well-planned product at the best locations remained stable and as a result, the forward sales have remained stable."
In June, the company reported that it had sold 3,742 new homes in the year to the end of April - nearly a third more than at the peak in 2007 before the crisis.
The annual pre-tax profit rose by 40 percent annually to 280 million pounds, while sales rose 18 percent to 1.6 billion pounds.
In an announcement on Monday before the annual meeting of the company Mr. Pidgley said that revenue for Berkeley would probably meet the current market expectations for the current year.
Analysts estimate consistently the annual pre-tax profit to 450 million pounds.
Berkeley shares were fixed in the afternoon London trade at 23.96 pounds.
Published nude photos of Jennifer Lawrence by hackers on the Internet
Jennifer Lawrence appearance at the 85th Academy Awards.
Nude Photos of Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence were published online by a hacker who claimed to have a "master list" of images further 100 Starlets.
A representative of the stars of "The Hunger Games" confirmed that the photos were genuine and Lawrence accused the hackers because of "blatant violation of privacy" on.
The authorities have been notified and will pursue all those who continue to post the stolen photos by Jennifer Lawrence.
The photos that were originally posted on the photo-sharing site 4chan were allegedly obtained through a gap in the online storage system iCloud from Apple. The alleged "master list" of hacking victims including the names of dozens of female celebrities, including Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Mary-Kate Olsen, BuzzFeed reported.
It is not certain how many of the images are real, although Winstead, star of "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" on Twitter also condemned the hack.
"To those of you who look at photos that my husband and I have taken up in the private environment of our house years ago - I hope you're really happy with you," Winstead wrote on Twitter.
Victoria Justice from the Nickolodeonserien "iCarly" and "Victorious" denied, however, that it was in the photos to pictures of her and tweeted "These so-called nude pictures of me are fake, people.
Weirs Let's be like the early days. * Pun intended *.
BuzzFeed reported late Sunday that a spokesman for the pop star Ariana Grande denied the authenticity of the alleged photos of her.
Exclusive extract from Howard Jacobson's acclaimed new novel about love and the letter "J".
They melted away, so you could best describe it, they broke up slowly like a box that you have in the rain leave.
Occasionally told him a woman that he was too serious, demanding, intense, distant and perhaps a little crabby.
And then shook his hand.
Crabby he knew.
He was prickly as hedgehogs in, yes.
The last victim of this Stacheligkeit was just incipient affair that had been promising for relieving lonely boredom of his life as usual, and might even have brought him a certain satisfaction.
Ailinn Solomons was a trembling delicate beauty with untamed hair and a fluttering heart of a village in the North Island, which was even more remote and harsher than Port Reuben.
She had come with a previous accompaniment to the south, held the Kevern for her aunt, and had inherited in a damp but paradisiacal valley with the aptly named Paradise Valley a lot.
For several years no one had lived in the house.
The pipes were leaking, were in the bathrooms even spiders, slugs had left their mark on all the windows and thought they owned it all, and the garden was overgrown with weeds that looked like giant cabbages.
It was like the house of a children's story, both menacing as tempting a garden full of secrets.
Portrait of the author: Howard Jacobson, whose novel "J" stands on the longlist for the Man Booker Prize in 2014.
The shortlist will be announced in the coming week.
Kevern had sat holding hands with Ailinn on the broken sunbeds in the tall grass and enjoyed an unusually warm spring afternoon. Both had absentmindedly snapped into the service console with soothing music and calming messages supplied the land, as the sight of her crossed brown legs reminded him of an old song of a long-forgotten black entertainers, which his father loved listening with closed shutters in the house ,
Your feet are too big.
Because of their innate aggressiveness songs of this kind were not played on the console.
Not prohibited - Nothing was really banned - just not played.
It has been successfully obsolesziert so obsoleszieren like the word.
The general taste managed what decrees and regulations have never managed and how people choose books at the From the rags-to-riches memoir, cookbooks and romances, so they chose the ballad with the music.
In the euphoria of the day Kevern began playing an imaginary piano and to sing big feet in a rough-comic Serenade Ailinns.
Ailinn did not understand.
"This was a well-known song of a jazz pianist named Fats Waller," he told her and automatically put two fingers to his lips.
That his father had always done to stop the letter J, before he came out of his mouth.
It had started out as a game between him and his father when he was young.
His father had played it with his own father, as he had told.
When you begin a word with a J, without laying two fingers on your lips, it will cost you a penny.
It was already at that time was not a very fun game and it was now not very funny.
He knew that this was expected of him, that was all.
It had to explain what was jazz.
Ailinn had never heard what.
Jazz was, even though he was not directly prohibited, not played.
The improvising was no longer modern.
There was only room for one "if" in life.
People wanted at the beginning of a tune to be quite sure where they would end up.
Likewise, the mind.
His unpredictability made people nervous.
And Jazz was musically expressed understanding.
Although he had become 10 years old without having heard from Sammy Davis Junior, knew Kevern about Jazz from the semi-secret collection of old CDs of his father.
But at least he did not have to explain Ailinn that Fats Waller was black.
At her age, she probably could not remember a time, in the pop singer were not black.
Again was, no laws or constraints.
A conforming society meant that every element of this society gratefully agreed to the principle of group talent - grateful as the spared by fate.
People with African-Caribbean origin were eligible by temperament and body type for entertainment and sports, so they sang and ran.
People who originally came from the Indian subcontinent, were blessed by nature with such electronic talent and were cared for with the task of ensuring that no family remained without a functioning telephone service.
What was left of the Polish community, taking care of the sewage system; what was left of the Greeks, smashed plates.
Those whose grandparents had not left the country quickly from the Gulf states and the Levant as WAS DONE WAS WHEN IT DONE WAS to be geschah- lest charged fire inciting, for fear even that the flames would consume the next - had Labneh- and shisha pipes restaurants opened, talked and were considering depressed with the inaction.
Each according to his abilities.
Since she had only heard ballads, it fell Ailinn hard to understand how the offensive words that had just sung her Kevern, were each set to music.
Music was an expression of love.
"They're not really offensive," said Kevern.
Except perhaps for people whose feet are too big.
My father never insulted anyone, but he loved this song.
He talked too much, but the neglected garden gave him the false sense of security.
Nothing could overcome the sound of giant cabbage-like leaves.
Ailinn still did not understand.
Why would your father something should love?
He wanted to say that it was a joke, but hesitated to put in her presence again two fingers to his lips.
She thought already that it was a little weird.
"It seemed to him funny," he said instead.
She shook her head in disbelief, blocking Keverns view.
It was all over the world to see nothing more than her unkempt black hair.
There was nothing he would not otherwise want to see.
"If you say so," they mean without conviction.
But that does not explain why you sing to me.
She seemed worried honest.
Are my feet too big?
He looked again.
Your feet so not right.
Maybe your knuckles, a little bit ...
And you say you hate me, because my ankles are too thick?
Hate you?
Of course I do not hate you.
It's just that stupid song.
He could have said "I love you", but it was still too early.
"Your thick ankles are exactly the reason why I like you," he tried instead.
I'm a bit perverse.
That did not sound right.
It was supposed to be funny.
If he was trying to be funny, he brought himself often in trouble because he does not like his father had the soothing charm, the one needed to tame the inherent cruelty in jokes.
Perhaps his father wanted to be cruel.
Maybe he wanted, Kevern, be.
Despite his friendly eyes.
Ailinn Solomons blushed and rose from her deck chair, threw to the console and spilled the wine they had drunk.
Elderflower wine, so was drunkenness is no excuse for him.
In her excitement she seemed to tremble, like palm fronds in the storm.
"And your thick head is exactly the reason why I'm attracted to you pervert," she said ...
Except that I'm not.
He felt sorry for, both because of the unnecessary rudeness of his words as well as the fear that showed in her eyes when she rebelled against him.
She thought that he would beat them?
She had not told him about the life on the cold northern archipelago, where she had grown up, but he had no doubt that it is essentially so was like here.
Here, the same huge and icy ocean broke down as there on the shore.
The same confused men, with even thicker skin and morose after what had happened as it had been their ancestors as a smuggler and beach robbers moved from pub to pub, always ready to raise his hand against a woman who refused to join them or ridiculed ,
Dick head?
They would have shown her a thick fist when she was not looking!
They snog only - smooching was the most commonly used word for an erotic attraction between men and women, an antidote to the bland love ballads from the console - they smooch first and then beat.
After Keverns view that was an unnecessary refinement since the smooching itself already constituted an act of violence.
Ailinn Solomons gave him through her a sign to go.
He rose from the deck chair like an old man.
She felt too leaden, but the force of his sadness surprised her.
That was not the end of the world.
They knew each other hardly.
She watched him as he walked away - like from a room upstairs while her companion was watching him - man, weighed down with something that he himself had conjured up.
Adam leaves the garden, she thought.
She felt a sudden pain for him and men in general, although some had their hands raised against them.
A man turned away from her, bent his back, ashamed, defeated without fighting spirit - why that was a sight she seemed to know well if you still could not remember a single time, in which they anything like this before had seen the day before?
When she was alone again, Ailinn Solomons looked down at her feet.
Several years ago the just told incidents worked Esme Nussbaum, an intelligent and enthusiastic 32-year-old researcher on behalf of Ofnow, the non-legislative monitoring body for the public mood, on a short presentation about the continued violence in low- and middle-level in exactly those areas, where the reduction, if not elimination have been, most likely to occur, given the money and energy that had been invested in the eradication of this violence.
"It has already done a lot, and a lot remains to be done," she wrote, "to appease the innate aggressiveness of a people led thousands of wars and most of them won, especially in the remote areas and valleys of the country, in where the sweet breath of human kindness has been historically despite the towering steeples between the hedges rarely felt.
But some characteristics turn out to be ineradicable.
The higher the steeple, it seems, the lower the passion he still wakes.
The population is crying while listening to sentimental ballads, drunk with stories about Overcoming difficulties and asserts firmly believe in the virtues of marriage and family life, but not only keeps the former rudeness rural communities as well as our urban fabric firmly in hand, but there is also evidence for the emergence of a new and sneaky contentiousness at home, at work, on the streets and even on the playing fields.
"You have an unfortunate tendency to exaggerate," said her mentor, when he had read the whole report.
I suggest that you read less fiction.
Esme Nussbaum lowered her head.
I also have to ask: are you an atheist?
"I think that I need not say," replied Esme walnut.
Are you a lesbian?
Again Esme invoked their right to privacy and denial of testimony.
Feminist?
More silence.
"I do not ask that," Luther Rabinowitz said finally, "because I was against atheism, lesbianism or feminism.
This is a prejudice-free workplace.
We serve an unprejudiced society.
But certain types of hypersensitivity, which is absolutely acceptable and laudable in itself, can occasionally results as you imagined it, distort.
They themselves have obviously prejudices against the Church, and those things that you describe as "sneaky" and "raw" could of course strength and vitality are interpreted by others as well as an expression of.
If you continue on the harping, what will happen is when it happened is as if it, if it had happened would have happened yesterday, means the country to take its essential vitality.
Esme walnut looked around while Rabinowitz said.
Behind his head a repeated LED lettering in Flamingo Pink the advice that Ofnow had left the country in the last quarter of a century or longer.

My concern is that we might find there again without warning us, as we repeat the mistakes that led only to what HAPPENED WHEN IT HAPPENED ever.

Lesotho military member says no coup was planned; Prime Minister remains in South Africa
Official representatives of the military in Lesotho denied having planned a coup to overthrow the government and said that they took action against the police officers, which the arming of political fanatics accused.
Prime Minister Thomas Thabane fled the country and said that the country's army had surrounded his official residence and occupied government buildings in the capital Maseru.
The Premier expressed his family in the adjoining South Africa after he had reported assassination threats.
Military spokesman Major Ntlele Ntoi said that there is no de facto coup, but that the military on the threat of "political fanatics" reacting whose armament was imminent by the police.
"Was what happened this morning, that the staff of the defense forces of Lesotho acted after he had received several intelligence reports that within the police operate some elements who wanted to actually arming some of the political, partisan young fanatics who were on the verge havoc wreak, "he told Voice of America.
The South African government spokesman Clayson Monyela said that military action had made the impression of a coup.
"Although no one has claimed to have the government usurped by force, all the reports are to agree that the activities of the defense forces of Lesotho far show signs of a coup d'etat," he said.
Spokesman of the military from Lesotho told on Sunday that the soldiers withdrew to their barracks and the situation in the capital is calm.
Meanwhile, Deputy Prime Minister Metsing Mothetjoya assumes the governance during Thabanes absence.
Thabane said that he thinks he's become a target because of his attempt to fight corruption in the country.
In Lesotho there was great tension in June after Thabane parliamentary sessions exposed in his unity government because of disputes.
He said his actions had not undermined the government, otherwise accusations notwithstanding.
Production in the euro zone on a 13-month low
The increase in production in the euro zone slowed in August to the lowest point of the past 13 months, a closely watched study.
The final Markit purchasing managers' index in the manufacturing sector (PMI) fell in August to 50.7 in, after a reading of 51.8 in July.
An indication over 50 indicates an expansion.
New orders declined and factories experienced burglaries in a time of rising tensions between the EU and Russia via Ukraine.
Making the numbers before the meeting of the European Central Bank (ECB) on Thursday a.
The markets expect the Bank a clear plan for dealing with a faltering recovery in the euro zone as well as the threat of deflation in an inflation rate of only 0.3%.
There is speculation to the fact that the head of the ECB, Mario Draghi, could provide further information during the course of this week, if he draws a quantitative relief for the euro area into consideration, according to those that were made by Britain and the United States during the financial crisis.
"Although a small growth is better than no growth, the braking effect of the growing economic and geopolitical uncertainty for manufacturers have become more apparent," said Rob Dobson, senior economist at Markit.
The factory PMI for Germany, the largest trading partner of Russia in the EU, fell to its lowest level in 11 months at 51.4.
In the meantime, fell in the second largest economy of the block, France, the PMI to 46.9.
France remains a problem child, as well as the descent in Italy of a solid expansion to stagnation.
Evidence that incentives for growth in key industrial mechanism Germany, Spain and the Netherlands are no longer effective are also not reassuring, "said Mr Dobson.
The decline in industry probably stoking the fire of analysts expect further monetary or fiskale incentives.
Positive news came from the Republic of Ireland, where the PMI rose to 57.3, its highest level since the end of 1999th
Howard Archer, chief economist at IHS Global Insight, said: "The best thing you can say for the purchasing managers' index in the manufacturing sector in the euro area in August is that after the sector continues to grow."
He added: "Producers in the euro zone find life at present obviously quite difficult as the current increased geopolitical tensions - particularly with regard to Russia and Ukraine - uncertainties in the continued difficult conditions in many countries enlarge.
This increased uncertainty have clearly affected the economy - in particular, and consumer confidence, and presumably results that some jobs may be delayed or even canceled, especially large orders.
He said that it was "increasingly likely" will, that the ECB must finally initiate a sort of QE, "though we suspect that this will be limited."
The hell decade of the survivors of Beslan: Ten years have passed since the terrible siege of the school, such as the fact entangled children suffer today.
Ten years ago, more than 1,000 people by Chechen militias in a school in Beslan in southern Russia were taken hostage.
More than 330 people, more than half of them children, were in the three-day ordeal that shocked the world, killed.
We returned to Beslan, to find some of the victims who had escaped death in the atrocity in the classroom.
Exactly a decade after the terrible siege of the school in Beslan, in which 334 people died, including 186 children, warned the heroic survivors last night in front of a new apocalypse in Ukraine.
Took as a fanatical Islamist terrorists children and parents on 1 September 2004, the beginning of a new school year, captured and killed, seemed like the most evil of evil.
The tragedy united West and East in disgust, and then turned, surprisingly, in action and hope for the future in the middle of the worst misery.
Ten years later, we returned to Beslan, to find some of the victims who had escaped death in the atrocity in the classroom.
We found surprising young people who have overcome resistance, though the memory of that terrorist hell they will pursue forever.
Your greatest hope?
That the war, which Ukraine now haunts - and in the children as they die - now comes to an end.
The girl, who was photographed in an attempt climb back into the battered Schulsporthalle
She was photographed by the famous Russian photographer Dimitri Beliakow and famous when she tried only in their underwear, climb back into the battered school gymnasium after a mine had exploded.
Totally confused Aida looked after her mother Larissa, now 40 years old.
Both were believed to be dead, but she survived.
"A woman told me that I should run for my life, but I could not," said Aida time.
My legs were covered in blood.
I got up and climbed back inside to look for my mother.
A soldier brought them to safety.
After a series of operations they thought he was completely cured, however, said yesterday: "Three months ago, the pain returned.
I am afraid that I have to have surgery again.
Some shrapnel still in my knee.
Your goal now is to be dentist to help people like her were helped by doctors.
"This tragedy changed my life, but it has not broken me," she says belligerently.
"That's happened to me, and can not be changed.
Once a year I always go to the gym, to remind me of those who have stayed there.
My friends and I try on other days not to talk about it.
The pain is too great.
My best friend and future classmate Dzera Gapoeva was killed there.
We played together when we were little, and dreamed of going to school together.
"I do not want to get married until I finish my studies and my career start.
On a family I think later.
She says that the siege will always remain a part of it, although the memory of each year is somewhat weak.
I am happy that many people around the world still remember our horror and we are so grateful for the help we received from people all over the UK and.
If I line the photo of me see how I climb back into the school, I think a lot of people see it for the first time, understand our disaster and help ensure that it does not happen again.
The boy, who fled through the hail of bullets, in the opinion, was his mother dead
It was his first day of school (Russians go with 7 years in the school) and survived the three-day siege in the arms of his mother Tamara.
The age of seven, he said, "Mom told me to lie down if there was an explosion, and hold her hand."
After an explosion, he thought she was going to die.
They said to him, "Run."
Fearful that she might be dead, he fled and saw on the way a crying infant, took her by the hand and fled through a hail of bullets.
His father Vladimir, who joined his son outside in the arms, said: "Damir told me that his mother had died.
He said: "I could not save them."
In reality, Tamara had stumbled outside and with leg injuries in the hospital, turn on the assumption that her son had died.
After their reunion, she said: "I cried for joy.
I could not believe it.
He ran in and hugged me.
Damir was later flown to London (from the now defunct News of the World) to obtain by the then Prime Minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie the title of Barnardo's Children's Champion.
"This horror haunting you every day, but I wish I could quit remember," he said yesterday.
But I can say it is paler in my memory.
I remember that I immediately afterwards threw all my toy guns.
But now I can computer games with shot scenes and that's no problem for me.
"I'm not afraid to go back to the gym, but I do not think about myself after.
I remember these children with whom I played in the yard, and did not make it out.
We never say that they were killed or are dead.
We say that they have remained in the gymnasium.
I remember very well on my trip to London, especially at the toy store, where I could pick me everything I wanted, and the ride in an open-topped car.
But now he's afraid to place such as Ukraine, where wars cause the kind of misfortune that he and his friends suffered.
This horror haunting you every day, but I wish I could stop myself to remember.
"I'm so sorry to all those who suffer from the horrors," said Damir, the last week as a volunteer working in a monastery.
I want so much to help.
I will one day go to the police and hope they take me next year at the Training Academy.
His mother Tamara, 48, said: "37 children from our neighborhood were killed, can you imagine that?
I remember the terrible silence after the siege, there was simply no children who could call and walk around, and this silence lasted for many months.
She vividly remembers her trip to London with Damir.
People in London were crying when I told our story.
I understood then, as people can understand on the other side of the world, our feelings, and show their support.
She was Cherie Blair and her foundation grateful for the price and the possibility to travel to London in autumn 2004.
I wish I could call Cherie and just tell her yourself, that 10 years have passed, but I still remember the meeting me her and her husband in London, and as the Damir and has helped me.
I still remember how Damir wanted something to eat borscht and they called all the local Russian restaurants.
I remember how he played with waiters in a restaurant. Damir shot with his water pistol at them and they ran away and played with him.
And that was only one month after the horror.
I was surprised that the British so willingly shared our pain and supported us.
She said: "I always think that this world has not improved in these 10 years.
In Ukraine, the war is now on, and every day people are dying, and I believe that many children have been killed and are still killing.
These are precisely those children like ours.
I think that for many of the war is a part of the messages that they hear when they are bored or busy with something else.
I know just what these people feel the whole horror.
And I can not stop doing it, to feel it.
Nothing has changed, the people want to still kill each other and that's so sad.
Damir was tall and is a very gentle and quiet boy, he is not aggressive or angry.
He is not looking for revenge, for example, he is not overwhelmed by the recent atrocities.
I know that he does not remember it, but he has six close friends from the class and they occasionally go to the gym and there ignite candles.
When he was small, he suffered - I remember how he sometimes lay down on the bed, her face turned away from us, for hours.
Not asleep, his eyes were open.
I also remember how he threw away all his weapons and other military toys. Damir is now 17, taller than me, handsome, intelligent and healthy.
I can hardly believe that I had a few hours so sure that he was dead and I would never see him again.
When I recovered after the blast and got to my feet, I looked around, and saw around hell to me, with all lying about body parts.
I was absolutely sure that my little boy could have survived impossible in this hell.
"I remember that I called to him," Damir, run, run away ", but I was so sure he had not heard me.
But he has heard it and he ran away.
And so life goes on, unlike many others, for us.
Georgy Ilyin, 17
The boy, whose terrible picture after the siege became a symbol of the horrors of Beslan was
Trost: The Beslan survivors Georgy Lyin with his mother Fatima after the siege in 2004, right a picture of George today
His blood-streaked face was lined with fear as he ran for his life, while Chechen terrorists gunned down his classmates.
His image was one of the most shocking symbols for the barbarity of Beslan.
His mother Fatima, 54, a doctor, had dropped him off for his first day of school before they rushed off to bring her elder son Vladimir to the university.
"I left the farm about two minutes before the terrorists stormed it, and so my little boy stayed there for three terrible days alone," she recalls.
Not quite alone, there was a whole family of relatives from us, but they were all killed.
Only my George managed to survive.
The closer this date gets, the harder it is to remember and talk about it is.
There is no single day on which we do not remind us of this tragedy.
We do not think that it's a long time ago, I think it would have happened yesterday, some scenes from these days haunt me all the time.
No one will ever forget, I promise you.
Insistently: The image of George (left) was one of the most shocking of the attack and was a statue (right) immortalized.
I remember that George on this day so much wanted to go to school. He said he wanted to hug his teachers.
I knew only that he was alive when I saw him on TV.
And now there is even the statue of the weeping Georgy in San Marino.
George sees the image does not like, and it is hidden in our home on the bookshelf.
I understand that, but I also think that the people around the world thanks to this image feel our pain.
Georgy says today: "It is important for that to happen it never again.
"I doubt that we will ever know the truth.
The people investigating such tragedies again and never learn the truth.
And now they are investigating the crash of the Boeing in Ukraine.
Will we ever find out what caused it?
This world will be something terrible.
"I can not understand how that's possible, because if you ask the people, nobody wants a war, so how does this happen?
Ten years is nothing in such pain.
We need dozens of years to forget it a little bit.
It has attacked my health and I feel it still.
About three or four years I have had a few nightmares because of the siege, but then it got better.
I went later in 2004, back to school and had every day anxiety.
I thought of my friends and classmates who had been killed.
That is why I always go to the gym when September 1st is approaching.
I want to express my my old childhood friends tribute.
It's hard for me to go to the gym, but I have to do it.
I do not feel as victims, this story is now a part of my past.
I will not forget it, but I do not pity me.
My life goes on.
I have finished school this year and visit a medical college in Vladikavkaz.
I'm going to be a heart surgeon.
My first choice was a training in the army.
I wanted to be a soldier, but my health did not allow that.
I wanted to fight for my country, but that will not happen.
Georgy Fanijew, 20
The boy who survived, though he was caught at the feet of a murderous terrorists
A miracle: Georgy Fanijew was captured during the siege at the feet of a murderous terrorist, but he managed to survive.
During the siege, he was trapped in the sports hall and sat next to the bomb that was attached to the foot of a murderous terrorist.
It really is a miracle that he was not killed.
"We feel it as if it were yesterday," says George, who wanted to go as an intelligence officer for the FSB, but could not do because of health damage caused by the siege.
It's still with me, there is nothing that I have left behind me.
I'm older now and people say that children can easily deal with bad experiences - I have to say that's not true.
"In 2006 I worked with psychologists and felt after actually a little better, but I can not forget it.
And I'd like to forget.
2005 - the year after that - was the first and only time that I went to the gym again.
I lost consciousness.
I'll never go back there and do not ask me to show you where I've been sitting in this famous image.
Survivor: Georgy Fanijew today, with a photo of himself in the hospital after the siege on the laptop
My pain is enormous, and I wear it every day with me.
My friends know that I do not like thinking about it or talk about it and they never asked me after school.
Physically I'm fine.
I should be careful with my injured knee, but now I can run well.
But because of my health, I could not study at the Secret Service Academy of the FSB in St. Petersburg, as I wanted.
I have my documents, also sent medical and they answered that it was not possible.
My second passion was the animals, so I went to the veterinary institute.
I have been there already two years behind me.
He learns the treatment of all animals "of cats to cows".
He said: "I knew that I would never tell my children about my experiences.
In addition, children should not know anything and they should not suffer it, of course.
His mother Marina, 42, said: "This pain never leaves me.
He is in my soul, worse if the anniversary is approaching.
I'll go to the celebrations commemorating.
I know that George will not go there.
It still needs to be much more violent for him because he was there and I did not.
I waited for him at home and could not help.
I am so thankful to God that he has been returned to me. Here in Beslan are all drawn from it.
It remains in us.
George is now an adult, but this horror is still in him.
It's hard to accept that, if a bit so happens Unfair.
He is a boy, he likes sports, but he is unable to attend due to his knee.
He was operated on several times, he can run, but do not exercise.
I would say that he has overcome the horror to 50%, but you can never completely overcome and forget.
This terrible experience will always haunt us.
Many friends and neighbors were killed in the siege, and the only strengthened my pain.
I've lost a lot of people I knew well and who were dear to me.
My son is with me, and that is the greatest gift that God could give me, but my heart weeps for those killed.
I know of families in which new children were born, but also of widows, who never remarried.
It's hard to accept that life goes on, even if you do not want that.
I'll never forget how my heart leaped within me as I saw him in the hospital.
And now I see what's going on in the world - wars in other regions.
What fight these people?
Why did they kill each other?
The war is now very close to our country and I can not believe almost.
We were used to be a friendly country, how can it be that we are now struggling?
People and children suffer, I am sure that for many children have been killed in Ukraine, and many are killed.
If we could just all grab and throw these Rebels - as far away as possible.

The world held its breath in 2004, when the baby Alyona was carried in the arms of a Russian police officers from the siege of Beslan.
The terrorists let them go, but stopped in their cruelty their 30-year-old mother, the 10-year-old sister Kristina and her brother Makhar back in the school gymnasium.
Makhar, then three years old, escaped, but Aljonas mother and sister died in the murderous carnage.
Her father Ruslan married again since then and has with his new wife Svetlana, that he has called for his lost daughter Kristina a little girl.

4 tips for better underwater photos and videos
If you want to take pictures or videos underwater, there is a selection of devices.
The cheapest option is a waterproof point-and-shoot, like the Nikon Coolpix AW120 or an action cam like the GoPro Hero3 + Silver Edition, both of which can be had for about $ 300.
I took these photos on a family celebration with several cameras, all of which are available at a price of under $ 350.
Regardless of the equipment, there are some rules for the best results.
Control your equipment twice.
Even if you have a waterproof camera, make sure that the battery compartment and other compartments are sealed.
Make. Your camera also on the photos or videos, which you want to record
Some cameras and camcorders feature scene and shooting modes with which the exposure time for the dim underwater conditions is optimized.
And before you jump into it, check the depth to which your equipment is functional.
Some cameras are only allowed up to 5 feet, others to 50 or 60 feet.
Search through our Buying and reviews for digital cameras for conventional and waterproof models.
Make multiple recordings - because many will not fold.
Point-and-shoot cameras have an LCD, allowing you to compose images, Action Cams normally.
Even if you have an LCD, it is difficult to consider this under water, and the correct image adjustment is a matter of luck.
So you make a lot of shots.
