This is why the UK-jailed Palestine solidarity activists are warning of hunger strikes as reported by Saeed Pourreza in London. The idea is to shame the UK Labour government into breaking its financial and military support for Israel and unbanning Palestine Action! Of course, the mainstream UK government is ignoring this protest and we have to rely on foreign news broadcasters to find what is going on just down the streets we live in!
Researchers from the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences conducted a study on the Shibantan Biota, a treasure trove of ancient fossils in Hubei. This fossil biota dates back approximately 550 to 543 million years. They identified several types of burrows made by worm-like animals, indicating that complex animal behaviours were already shaping the seafloor environment nearly 10 million years earlier than previously thought.
Generally speaking, the Hangman will leave the body hanging for one-hour before the back of the neck is “measured” to prove the bones are separated. Immediately after the Execution is complete – all involved head to the Prison Canteen where they eat a special slap-up breakfast – a celebration that the Will of the State has been successfully carried-out. The Hangman then must return and take-down the body – which is stripped naked and washed before being re-dressed in burial clothing. The deceased body is then placed in a cheap wooden coffin and buried somewhere in the prison grounds in an unmarked grave – whilst the Chaplain carries-out all the relevant duties and procedures. The “Prison Number” of the inmate is inscribed on a secret map recording the location of the grave – kept only in the Governor’s Office. In the UK Judical System – the body of a convicted and executed felon belongs permanently to the State – and can never be given back to his or her family.
According to reports, on Sept. 29, 2014, a 2.6-metric-ton conglomerate rock from Mount Rigi was installed at the Golden Summit of Mount Emei. In return, on July 31, 2015, an 8-metric-ton basalt rock from Mount Emei was set up at Rigi’s summit, Rigi Kulm.
According to the Leshan municipal government website, Emei and Rigi officially became sister mountains in 2009. The two sides agreed to exchange rocks to be placed at both summits as symbols of friendship.
The Mount Emei stone is a basalt rock formed around 260 million years ago. It is 2.6 meters tall, 1.5 metres wide, 1.5 metres thick at its deepest point, and weighs about 8.05 metric tons. (Gong Weiwei)
The decision was made in accordance with the Constitution, aiming to safeguard the outcomes of the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War and the post-war international order, to demonstrate the firm will to uphold the one-China principle and defend national sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity, and to strengthen the shared national memory of compatriots on both sides, it said.
When explaining the draft decision to the NPC Standing Committee, Shen Chunyao, director of the NPC Standing Committee’s Legislative Affairs Commission, noted that on Oct. 25, 1945, the ceremony to accept Japan’s surrender in the Taiwan Province of the China war theatre of the Allied powers was held in Taipei. From that point on, Taiwan and the Penghu Islands returned to China’s sovereign jurisdiction.
The world’s first solar magnetic-field telescope operating in the mid-infrared wavelength range has officially become operational after gaining government approval, marking a major breakthrough in solar magnetic field research.
The telescope, known as the Accurate Infrared Magnetic Field Measurements of the Sun, or AIMS, is located in Lenghu township, Qinghai province, at an average altitude of about 4,000 meters. AIMS’ development addresses a long-standing bottleneck in the century-old history of solar magnetic field measurements by achieving a leap from indirect to direct measurement, scientists said.
“The sun, being the only star we can observe with high precision, has a magnetic field that acts as the energy switch driving intense solar activities such as flares and coronal mass ejections. Yet, more than half the sun’s overall magnetic field manifestations are relatively weak, with strengths of only a few dozen gauss,” said Deng Yuanyong, a researcher at the National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who led the telescope’s construction.
