China: Flesh Embraces Steel in New Age of Prosthetics Aesthetics! (17.9.2025)
This is because the disabled suffer the greatest extent of discrimination – and many sympathetic able-bodied know that if they step out of line with their able-bodied colleagues – then doors are shut. Indeed, one comment was left at the foot of my article stating that “It is the fault of the disabled. All their extra needs are a burden to the average worker. Why should the average worker make any extra allowances for disabled individuals when they contribute nothing to the system, and are a drain on society? As the disabled produce little (or no) material gain and/or surplus profit through their labour – why should (the workers) share what little they have with them?” And this comment derived not from the right – but from the left! Today, I see comments like this on virtually ALL right-wing and far-right forums – with the left remaining quiet on the subject – whilst simultaneously doing nothing about it! This is the debilitating world of stifled intellectualism we live in in the West. Compare this with the giant strides being made in Socialist China!
When the Left & Right Adopt One-Another’s Ideals! (30.8.2025)
The history is perhaps not so clear-cut as above – as when the UK controlled Palestine between 1917-1947 – British troops were called upon to keep the warring Muslims and Zionists apart. This meant that both sides viewed the UK as an enemy – and a friend – depending upon what was happening. Zionists, for instance, carried-out some the most hideous terrorist attacks upon British citizens and military – as did the various Arab factions. Indeed, even today, some of the Palestinian factions fighting in and around Gaza – still celebrate an ambush (and massacre) of British soldiers which occurred in 1936 – and which is believed to have been encouraged by Adolf Hitler (a man who had very good relations with the Mufti of Palestine). Not only did certain German Jews (Zionists) in Palestine develop very a good Hitlerite relationship – but they did this in parallel (and in distinction to) the good relations the Arabs already possessed! Hitler, at least in the years prior to WWII, held all the cards in Gaza, and was the puppet-master pulling all the anti-British strings.
China: Scientists Trace Earth’s 2-Billion-Year Oxygen Rise! (28.8.2025)
The study, led by China’s Chengdu University of Technology in collaboration with the UWA and published in Nature, showed that following the Neoproterozoic oxygen rise, Earth’s largely oxygen-poor oceans experienced periodic oxidation pulses.
The events resulted in synchronized carbon, sulphur and oxygen isotope shifts over hundreds of millions of years, which suggests that increasing atmospheric oxygen repeatedly triggered transient ocean oxidation.
“The findings provide an environmental framework for understanding the origin and evolution of life on Earth, as well as the formation of mineral deposits and petroleum resources,” Dodd said.
Tiverton: WWI Naval Gun [Lime Kiln Road] – Playing in the 1970s Was Very Different! (5.7.2025)
I was born in Oxford – but my parents moved to Tiverton (in East Devon) in 1970. I started school (Wilcombe) in 1972 (when 5-years old) – but changed to a school in Exeter in 1977. However, I have a memory of joining (after school) a group of classmates who “played” on a WWI Naval Gun situated on a public street (situated in Lime Kiln Road)! I have lived in Sutton (South-West Greater London) for over three-decades today – but recently – whilst picking-up my children from school in Cheam, I saw youths dressed in the uniforms of what is today termed the “Combined Cadet Force”, and the thought of myself once playing on a military gun (around 1977) bubbled-up in my mind (although publicly accessible – the gun in question was placed outside the Tiverton Sea Cadets Training Hall). In fact, after having experienced many interest things in my life (including four wonderful years based in Hereford during the 1980s), and having travelled around the world, I surprised myself with this memory and was not even sure it was real!
Italy: The Life-Story of Nadia Lauricella [“Iron-Nadia”]! (12.6.2025)
I believe that everyone must play an active role in their own reality: only in this way can institutions be brought closer to the real needs of citizens, especially in terms of disability. For a disabled person sometimes a step is a problem, a road with potholes, the lack of traffic lights with acoustic signals… Therefore, it is the duty of every citizen to commit ourselves to achieving a truly inclusive society, where everyone’s needs are taken into consideration by those involved in urban planning, architecture and social policies.
