News Headlines (535) 15 May - 31 May 2015




ONLINE TODAY

16 May 2015 : You have a romantic plan in mind that includes someone you love, but he or she might not be all that cooperative when it comes to manifesting your dream. Although you're tempted to use the art of persuasion, there's no need to push your agenda today. The first step is to observe your changing emotions without feeling like you must act on every whim. Nevertheless, just because others aren't willing to join you now, you still have a good chance of finding satisfaction on your own if you choose your goals with great care.

17 May 2015 : Luckily, you can effortlessly balance your social life with your current obligations as long as you pare back your expectations. Rather than aimlessly wandering through your day, create a viable plan to finish the most important chores still left undone. Managing your time efficiently frees you up to spontaneously accept an invitation to a fun event. Your key to happiness today is minimizing the distractions and only doing what makes your heart content.

18 May 2015 : Building your nest egg is at the top of your list as the solid Taurus New Moon highlights your 2nd House of Resources. The cosmic emphasis is on your personal finances for the month ahead, so take stock of your assets and put your accounts in order. However, the judgments you make about yourself impact your earning power more than you think. You can add value to your life by considering what you have to offer to others and how they perceive you. But a one-time fix isn't the answer today; revisit your progress regularly in the days ahead to generate the prosperity you seek.

19 May 2015 : Your mind is racing at a million miles a minute; the thoughts go flying by so fast that you can't hold onto any one of them. Unbeknownst to you, more is going on than you realize. It's not time to turn a dream into reality now. Mercury's retrograde in your 3rd House of Information gives you a chance to let your thoughts and ideas come and go at their own pace without any need to make major decisions or initiate action just yet. Explore all your alternatives and take comfort in the fact that you don't have to choose one today.

20 May 2015 : Contrary to popular belief, you Rams can also behave like lambs; your gentle way of caring for those you love is obvious while the watery Cancer Moon softens your harder edges today. But nurturing others requires that you tend to your own needs, too. Instead of adding to your current stress by attempting to be everything to everyone now, slow down and be good to yourself. The seed of love is first planted at home.

21 May 2015 : You may struggle with an inner conflict today between your desire to hang out with friends and a need to stay true to yourself. You crave the casual camaraderie that comes from socializing with your peers, yet you aren't willing to risk your emotional security by spending extra time away from your home and family. Rationalizing your behavior doesn't change the circumstances. However, you can get the most out of the present moment if you simply decide to stop fighting with yourself. It's all in your mind; life is what you make it.

22 May 2015 : You don't necessarily excel at following rules, but you must pay attention to them now or suffer the consequences. The lines are printed in a coloring book for a reason, even if you rebel against the idea of staying within them. Self-control counts far more than anything else these days, so establish clear guidelines and stick to them. Keep in mind that reaching your long-term goals is more rewarding than the temporary satisfaction of immediate gratification.

23 May 2015 : You may not catch up with your chores as quickly as you wish today, for you are preoccupied with pleasure rather than production. Thankfully, you might have the right idea about getting the distractions out of your system sooner than later. If you have a lot to do now, you won't be able to procrastinate forever. Nevertheless, returning to your unfulfilled obligations with a happy heart enables you to accomplish more in the long run.

24 May 2015 : Restraining your impulses is exhausting work, reminding you of your ongoing struggle with impetuous behavior. However, it's more difficult to withhold your desires now since your charm seems to be working wonders on those around you. Your effervescence can lead to trouble because your passion might be overpowering to your audience. Enjoy the show you are putting on today, but don't overdo it. Sharing the spotlight is a simple way to empower others to express themselves, too. A little bit of give and take makes the day more memorable for everyone involved.

25 May 2015 : You may easily upset others today if you are completely honest with them about what you want. You might even justify your position with the facts, but speaking with authority doesn't make your words true, especially while aggressive Mars squares deceptive Neptune. Insisting that you are right isn't a viable strategy because you sound foolish if you pretend that you are an expert on something you're not. Rather than bending reality in your favor, downplay your needs by saying less and listening more.

26 May 2015 : Rushing around just doesn't work today because you may have to go back and do things over again. If you have specific tasks that must be completed, you're probably overeager to finish them as quickly as possible. However, you could get mired down in red tape unless you take each step in the proper order. As boring as it sounds, it's more efficient to follow accepted procedures from the beginning than to bolt ahead without regard for the rules. Haste makes waste.

27 May 2015 : You may solve a problem at work through sheer willpower, enabling you to turn a sticky situation to your advantage. However, you also realize your small victory is part of a larger issue for which there's no fast and easy fix. Meanwhile, criticism about your productivity shifts from logistical concerns, opening the door to an ideological power struggle. Your wisest strategy now is non-engagement because once a conflict is underway, you lose even if you win. Make peace, not war.

28 May 2015 : If a recent disagreement with a friend or lover created feelings of distrust, you have an opportunity to heal the rift today. Unfortunately, if you take a chance and talk about it you could be accused of being negative because you want to address an uncomfortable subject. Thankfully, there's no need for complete resolution now; speak your mind and then move on. Your calm and rational approach demonstrates your willingness to compromise.

29 May 2015 : You're on the edge of your seat, eager for your next adventure but people require your attention as the Libra Moon focuses you on your relationships. Whether your interactions with others are difficult or comforting today, you're motivated to reconnect with people from your past and return to familiar conversations. Luckily, you just might uncover a long lost memory that will help you in the long-run if you keep an open mind about what you learn now. Your attitude makes all the difference in the world.

30 May 2015 : Your plans begin to fall in place today as you gather more information about your partner's vision of the future. However, you need more time to find common ground since you still have important details to work out. Unfortunately, you can' apply everything you discover now, so store what you learn for later when you can use it. Don't act prematurely; listen, observe, and deepen your perspective as much as possible while reevaluating the relationship dynamics. No hurry; no worry.

31 May 2015 : You might think you know exactly what you want only to change your mind several times today. Alternating overconfidence and self-doubt can lead you in circles unless you consciously step back from your involvement. Disengaging from an exhausting cycle brings a fresh perspective along with better choices. Just remember that you still have another couple of weeks until your path begins to clear. In the meantime, freely explore your dreams without feeling any undue pressure to make them real.



"Respect was invented to cover the empty place where love should be. But if you don't love me, it would be better and more honest to say so." Anna Karenina

"All the diversity, all the charm, and all the beauty of life are made up of light and shade."Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

" Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely." - Auguste Rodin

SALON 23 May 2015 : Mike Huckabee is beyond gross: The sick hypocrisy of a man who slimes Obama's parenting, but defends Josh Duggar, admitted sexual molester
Janet and I want to affirm our support for the Duggar family. Josh’s actions when he was an underage teen are as he described them himself, 'inexcusable,'but that doesn't mean 'unforgivable'. He and his family dealt with it and were honest and open about it with the victims and the authorities. No purpose whatsoever is served by those who are now trying to discredit Josh or his family by sensationalizing the story. Good people make mistakes and do regrettable and even disgusting things. The reason that the law protects disclosure of many actions on the part of a minor is that the society has traditionally understood something that today's blood-thirsty media does not understand—that being a minor means that one's judgement is not mature. No one needs to defend Josh's actions as a teenager, but the fact that he confessed his sins to those he harmed, sought help, and has gone forward to live a responsible and circumspect life as an adult is testament to his family's authenticity and humility. Those who have enjoyed revealing this long ago sins in order to discredit the Duggar family have actually revealed their own insensitive bloodthirst, for there was no consideration of the fact that the victims wanted this to be left in the past and ultimately a judge had the information on file destroyed—not to protect Josh, but the innocent victims. Janet and I love Jim Bob and Michelle and their entire family. They are no more perfect a family than any family, but their Christian witness is not marred in our eyes because following Christ is not a declaration of our perfection, but of HIS perfection. It is precisely because we are all sinners that we need His grace and His forgiveness. We have been blessed to receive God's love and we would do no less than to extend our love and support for our friends. In fact, it is such times as this, when real friends show up and stand up. Today, Janet and I want to show up and stand up for our friends. Let others run from them. We will run to them with our support. - Mike Huckabee

FILM & ANIMATIONS: LET THE FIRE BURN - official US trailer. In the astonishingly gripping LET THE FIRE BURN, director Jason Osder has crafted that rarest of cinematic objects: a found-footage film that unfurls with the tension of a great thriller. On May 13, 1985, a longtime feud between the city of Philadelphia and controversial radical urban group MOVE came to a deadly climax. By order of local authorities, police dropped military-grade explosives onto a MOVE-occupied rowhouse. TV cameras captured the conflagration that quickly escalated—and resulted in the tragic deaths of eleven people (including five children) and the destruction of 61 homes. It was only later discovered that authorities decided to "...let the fire burn." Using only archival news coverage and interviews, first-time filmmaker Osder has brought to life one of the most tumultuous and largely forgotten clashes between government and citizens in modern American history. LET THE FIRE BURN will open in New York on October 2, and Los Angeles on October 18 before playing around the country. Published on Sep 10, 2013 by ZeitgeistFilms

TRAVEL & EVENT : Glass skywalk in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in the Tianmen Mountain, China. China from a Vantage Point: Glass Skywalk in the Tianmen Mountain. The glass skywalk in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in the Tianmen Mountain, China, seems especially built for the fearless. But walking on this incredible pathway, suspended 1,430 meters high up in the air (about 4 691.6 feet) is also 6,35 centimeters thick (2.5 inches), making it safe for the avalanche of tourists. The skywalk is situated 4,700ft above sea level on the side of the Tianmen Mountain in Zhangjiajie, China. The 200ft long bridge joins the west cliff at the Yunmeng Fairy Summit, the summit of Tianmen Mountain and Zhang Jiajie. And it would appear to be too scary for the cleaners - tourists are asked to put on shoe covers before passing to help keep the path clean. The pathway, built earlier in the summer echoes the glass-bottomed walkway at the Grand Canyon in the U.S. The 70ft bridge is 4,000ft above the natural wonder and allows tourists to look through 2.5in of crystal-clear glass to the Canyon floor below. The Tianmen mountain, literally translated as Heavenly Gate Mountain is so called because of a huge natural cave that occurs halfway up to the summit.

EDUCATION : A Brilliant Madness is the story of a mathematical genius whose career was cut short by a descent into madness. At the age of 30, John Nash, a stunningly original and famously eccentric MIT mathematician, suddenly began claiming that aliens were communicating with him and that he was a special messenger.

Diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, Nash spent the next three decades in and out of mental hospitals, all but forgotten. During that time, a proof he had written at the age of 20 became a foundation of modern economic theory. In 1994, as Nash began to show signs of emerging from his delusions, he was awarded a Nobel Prize in Economics. The program features interviews with John Nash, his wife Alicia, his friends and colleagues, and experts in game theory and mental illness.

Go beyond the Oscar-winning drama "A Beautiful Mind" and learn more about the life of troubled mathematician and Nobel Prize-winner John Nash and his struggle with mental illness in this PBS "American Experience" documentary. Exclusive interviews with Nash and wife Alicia are included. Published on Feb 27, 2013 by SubscriptionFreeTV

Russian permanent mission to NATO said the alliance was continually distort facts about the relationship with Russia. This was done so that NATO could expand their influence in Western countries. NATO tried to persuade the West by bringing up the fact that they were the only party that could maintain the security in Europe. The trick was to obscure the facts, both about their relationship with Russia, also by covering their missions in Middle East region. The mission also said that there was no constructive proposals ever made by NATO regarding what steps should be done to assist in overcoming the dangerous tendency in the development of political and military situation in Europe, even NATO continued to ignore Russia's proposal on how to strengthen the security in Euro-Atlantic region.

Myanmar is a multi-religious country with 60 million people. Statistics show that 89% of the population are Buddhists, 4% are Christians, 4% are Muslims, and 3% follow other religions, including Hinduism and the Bahá'í Faith.

The name "Rohingya" is derived from "Rohang," believed to be the ancient name of the Rakhine (Arakan) state of Myanmar. The recent violence in Rakhine state has led many Rohingyas to flee Myanmar and attempt to cross the 200-kilometre porous border with Bangladesh. Around 40% of the population of the Rakhine state is estimated to be Muslim.

Bangladesh shares borders with two Myanmar states -- Rakhine (Arakan) and Chin. Most people of Chin state practice Christianity and no refugees came from Chin state to Bangladesh.

Besides Rakhine Muslims, there are Muslims living in other parts of Myanmar. They came from Gujarat (India) and China, and live peacefully with other ethnic groups in various parts of the country, including Yangon.

Rohingyas look similar to Bangladesh people living in the southeast and speak in a dialect which is close to that of Bangladesh people on the border. They can easily mingle with the local people.

It is reported that the recent unrest began on June 3 after the police in Rakhine detained three Muslim men (Rohingyas) in relation to the rape and killing of a Buddhist woman late last month. That was followed by a wanton attack by Buddhists on a bus in early June in which 10 Muslims were killed. 13 Buddhist Rakhines and 16 Rohingyas have been killed, Myanmar officials told AP last week.

The question is, given the unrest in the Rakine state can Rohingyas be considered as "refugees" under the UN 1951 Convention on Refugees or its 1967 Protocol?

To be eligible as a refugee, there must be "well-founded fear of persecution" by the state. The present unrest emanated from an allegedly criminal act on a Buddhist female by some Rohingyas and did not arise from persecution by the authorities. It is considered as a law and order issue for Myanmar.

Bangladesh is not a party to the UN Convention of the Refugees and there is no legal obligation to accept them. There could be, however, a moral or humanitarian obligation in a war-like situation, but given the sectarian clash between minority and majority groups in the Rakhine state, Rohingyas cannot arguably come within the definition of "refugees."

On June 13, Bangladeshi Foreign Minister Dr. Dipu Moni said Bangladesh was not willing to give shelter to Rohingyas despite international calls for opening the border. "We're already burdened with thousands of Rohingya refugees staying in Bangladesh and we don't want any more," she reportedly said.

In my view, the stance of the government is correct. Some reasons are given below:

First, Bangladesh is an overpopulated country compared to its territorial size (about 160 million people squeezed in an area of 147, 570 square kilometres). Bangladeshi officials estimate that there are 300,000 Rohingyas already in the country, with about a tenth of them in two official refugee camps in the southern district of Cox's Bazaar.

Second, Rohingya refugees are a heavy burden on Bangladesh's economy and scant resources. It is reported that many local people do not want to accept Rohingya refugees, some of whom are allegedly involved in undesirable activities either within the local area or on the border, posing a threat to peace and security of local people.

Third, Rohingya refugees have reportedly created a bad image of Bangladesh in the Middle East. It is alleged that most of the "Bangladeshis" who committed crimes in Saudi Arabia were Rohingyas with fake or forged Bangladesh passports.

Fourth, many believe that, having being deprived of amenities as citizens since 1962 when General Ne Win seized power, some Rohingyas reportedly constituted guerilla outfits including the Arakan Rohingya National Organisation and Arakan Rohingya Islamic Front fighting for a Rohingya land in Rakhine state. In 1978, when Bangladesh in agreement with Myanmar repatriated Rohingya refugees, these entities reportedly resisted their repatriation until the land was "secure" from their point of view.

Fifth, a serious misunderstanding was created in the past between Bangladesh and Myanmar on the issue of Rohingya refugees and Bangladesh does not wish any more to be misunderstood on this issue with one of its closest neighbour, which is on a steady path to democratic reforms. The Bangladesh prime minister visited Myanmar last December and the Myanmar president is expected to visit in mid-July -- after a 26-year gap.

Pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi last month met thousands of Myanmar refugees now living in a Thai border camp. She promised to try as much as she could to help them return home, vowing not to forget them. It is disappointing to note she has been conspicuously silent on the current violence in Rakhine state and on Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh.

It is expected that while Suu Kyi is on a tour of Europe, the European leaders and Human Rights Organisations should urge her to address the current unrest and the root causes for Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh.

The Secretary General of the UN needs to play an active role in addressing the issues of religious minority community in the Rakhine state with Myanmar authorities.

Since Bangladesh is already sheltering more than 300,000 Rohingya refugees from Myanmar, there is a view that those countries and organisations which call upon Bangladesh to open the border to Rohingyas on humanitarian considerations may send their planes or passenger boats to Chittagong, and Bangladesh may open the border on the condition that those who come to Bangladesh from Myanmar will be sent to those countries.

Out of 15.4 million refugees in the world as of today, records show that developing countries in Asia and Africa host 80% of them, and not the Western countries which have turned their countries into "fortresses" and are very reluctant to accept refugees in their own countries.

Viewfinder - My Dancing Heart. When you reach that latter stage of life so many assumptions are made: you will retire, you will relax or slow down and definitely leave the fast lane of life behind. All with the idea that you will happily accept being something less.But this film looks at a small group of the senior set who get up on their feet every day and enthusiastically chase their next challenge, and in doing so challenge conventional thinking about the elderly.They dance in the traditional Mexican style, Danzon. They meet Saturday nights in the public plazas of Mexico City to explore the sensuality of dance, enjoy romance and seek out the possibility of love in this, their last chapter of life.As we follow their embrace of new passions, we witness the transformation of these ageing souls from the nameless and neglected to - if only for a small stage or a brief moment - become lithe, lively stars living to the fullest at the onset of twilight.

"Thank you for your perception! I like your romantic side, even if I do not always comment and I'm glad that you're in my circle of friends."
(Courtesies by: Wolfgang A. Gerhardt)

Wolfgang A.Gerhardt : May be you like this Sunday collage

Cisca Zarmansyah : Before today, there never was a person doing this to me. You create a simple matter to look special. This is a special thing for me.

Cisca Zarmansyah : Thank you. I love it. I love you, my friend.

CieL- FreYa Ceastle : Hmm, he's so nice...















"I am me.
In all the world,
there is no one else exactly like me.
Everything that comes out of me
is authentically mine,
because I alone chose it --
I own everything about me:
my body,
my feelings,
my mouth,
my voice,
all my actions,
whether they be to others or myself.
I own my fantasies,
my dreams,
my hopes,
my fears.
I own my triumphs and successes,
all my failures and mistakes.
Because I own all of me,
I can become intimately acquainted with me.
By so doing,
I can love me
and be friendly with all my parts.
I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me,
and other aspects that I do not know
-- but as long as I am friendly
and loving to myself,
I can courageously and hopefully
look for solutions
to the puzzles and ways
to find out more about me.
However I look and sound,
whatever I say and do,
and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time
is authentically me.
If later some parts of how I looked,
sounded,
thought,
and felt
turn out to be unfitting,
I can discard that which is unfitting,
keep the rest,
and invent something new
for that which I discarded.
I can see,
hear,
feel,
think,
say, and do.
I have the tools to survive,
to be close to others,
to be productive,
and to make sense
and order out of the world of people
and things outside of me.
I own me,
and therefore,
I can engineer me.
I am me,
and I am okay."
