Ideologically, it is founded on a claim to norms and a code of ethics, but in the past, news media also held material control over mass communication through broadcast and print which were largely inaccessible to most citizens. The Internet and social media has created a news environment where professional journalists and their work exist side-by-side with non-journalists. In this space, acts of journalism also can be and are carried out by non-journalists.

  • Hong Kong Govt Ivory Sales Ban NGO Signon Letter 14
    To: Hong Kong Chief Executive, Leung Chun-ying via Hong Kong Post & e-mail 14 May 2014 URGENT: Hong Kong Government Please Legislate a Permanent Ivory Sales Ban We are writing to you on behalf of a global coalition of international and local wildlife conservation and animal welfare groups, with regards to the continued sales of ivory and ivory products within the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. We are calling on the Hong Kong government to enact an urgent, comprehensive and permanent ban on ivory sales. We applaud the government for taking a brave step in January 2014 to commit to the destruction by incineration of 29.6 tonnes of confiscated elephant ivory seized in Hong Kong since 1976. However, we believe that this does not go far enough, and that more needs to be done to curb demand for ivory and effectively diminish illegal trade and elephant poaching. Hong Kong plays a key role in the global ivory trade. The city has been recognized as a major market and transit point for smuggled ivory by CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora), which considers Hong Kong one of nine countries / regions of priority concern. (1) The current catastrophic poaching crisis, the worst since the 1980s, is causing the killing of tens of thousands of elephants every year for the illegal ivory trade. Much of this ivory passes through Hong Kong illegally on the way to mainland China, where demand is surging. This demand is driven in large part by a new class of wealthy individuals, many of whom travel to Hong Kong as tourists to buy tax free luxury goods – including ivory and ivory products.

South Africa noted its support for the proposed decisions contained in Annex 1 to document CoP18 Doc. 18.1 (Rev. 1) revised by the Secretariat to reflect recommendations found in documents CoP18 Doc. 17.2, 17.3, 18.2, and 18.3. Bangladesh and Eswatini supported additional engagement of local communities in CITES processes. China supported the creation of an in-session working group to discuss further amendments to both documents. New Zealand and Indonesia did not support the amendments suggested in either document CoP18 Doc. 17.2 or CoP18 Doc. 18.3. Though they recognised the importance of consulting rural communities, they echoed earlier comments by Burkina Faso, Colombia, Gabon, Israel, Kenya, Mauritania, Niger and Nigeria that socioeconomic impacts of proposed listings should best be determined at the national level. New Zealand and Indonesia instead supported the suggestion by the United States of America to create guidance to support the engagement processes outlined in Resolution Conf.

  • The Data Journalism Handbook
    THE DATA JOURNALISM HANDBOOK Towards a Critical Data Practice Edited by Liliana Bounegru and Jonathan Gray 1 Bounegru & Gray (eds.) The Data Journalism Handbook “This is a stellar collection that spans applied and scholarly perspectives on practices of data journalism, rich with insights into the work of making data tell stories.” − Kate Crawford, New York University + Microsoft Research New York; author of Atlas of AI “Researchers sometimes suffer from what I call journalist-envy. Journalists, after all, write well, meet deadlines, and don’t take decades to complete their research. But the journalistic landscape has changed in ways that scholars should heed. A new, dynamic field—data journalism—is flourishing, one that makes the boundaries between our fields less rigid and more interesting. This exciting new volume interrogates this important shift, offering journalists and researchers alike an engaging, critical introduction to this field. Spanning the globe, with an impressive variety of data and purposes, the essays demonstrate the promise and limits of this form of journalism, one that yields new investigative strategies, one that warrants analysis. Perhaps new forms of collaboration will also emerge, and envy can give way to more creative relations.” − Wendy Espeland, Northwestern University; co-author of Engines of Anxiety: Academic Rankings, Reputation, and Accountability “It is now established that data is entangled with politics and embedded in history and society.

    DECEMBER 2015 Scarpia Piers Paul Read Based on one of the central figures from Tosca, Puccini's classic opera, Scarpia is a powerful story of love, lust and political intrigue set in Rome after the French Revolution Description Man is a delicate mechanism. he can easily be set off course. It is the late 18th century and nobleman Vitellio Scarpia finds himself, penniless and in disgrace, on the streets of Rome. After leaving his home, on a quest for a successful military career, his fiery passion has seen him expelled from the Spanish royal guard and left to seek his fortune in Italy; a fortune inseparably bound to the Pope, whose regency has been in question since the French Revolution. Intent on furthering his position in Rome, Scarpia supplements his income as a guard by accompanying a seductive countess, delighted at the prospect of having an ex-soldier on her arm. With her as his guide, Scarpia is able to attend the many decadent parties and festivals open to the upper echelons of the city. That is, provided he does his duty. But, traversing a society swirling with questions of political and sexual morality, the provincial soldier feels himself harden. And, as his own path converges with that of the gifted, beautiful Floria Tosca, he discovers that the fate that led him to power will be the same one that tears him from it. Steeped in factual detail and exploring the fictional figure whose actions define Puccini's famous opera, Tosca, novelist Piers Paul Read here tells the powerful tale of Vitellio Scarpia, a story that shines a light into the dusty corridors of history and the dark corners of the human soul.

Recent studies show that the destruction of the rain forests wipes out 17.000 plant and animal species each year. That's ahout 48 extinctions per day, two per hour. These are plants and animals that will simply cease to exist, gone forever from the planet. And the toll mounts every day. Even though they occupy less than 2% of the earth's surface, rain forests are home to over half the world's plant and animal species. When we destroy the rain forest we are endangering our planet's % future. The chain of life depends on a variety of plants and animals that are being Bf destroyed by the day... from the smallest f tree frog to the largest tropical tree.

  • Affecting Factors in Information Security Policy Compliance: Combine Organisational Factors and User Habits
    Affecting Factors in Information Security Policy Compliance: Combine Organisational Factors and User Habits Angraini1,4, Rose Alinda Alias2 and Okfalisa3 1School of Computing, Faculty Engineering, University Technology Malaysia, 81310 Johor, Malaysia 2Department of Information System, Azman Hashim International Business School, University Technology Malaysia,81310 Johor Malaysia 3Department of Informatics Engineering, Faculty Science and Technology, Universitas Islam Negeri Sultan Syarif Kasim, Pekanbaru, Riau 4Department of Information System, Faculty Science and Technology, Universitas Islam Negeri Sultan Syarif Kasim, Pekanbaru, Riau [email protected] Abstract. Information security policy compliance is one concern of organisations to improve information security, including universities. Previous research has shown that factors that influence user compliance can come from user behaviour and from within the organisation. This study aims to explore the factors of organisation and user habits that affect user compliance with information security policies. The research model proposed used organisational commitment, organisational culture, reward, and habit variables—this research conducted with a case study of public universities in Indonesia by using an online survey. The results indicated that the factors derived from organisational commitment established a positive influence on the user’s respectful behaviour. The insignificant organisational culture and reward affected information security policies. User habits also influenced user behaviour in maintaining information security. Keywords: compliance, information security policy, organisation commitment, organisation culture, habit. 1 Introduction There has been a growth in research to devote more attention to information security due to a significant increase in threats and attacks on information security. Cybersecurity Ventures estimates that a business will fall victim to ransomware attacks every 14 seconds in 2019 and every 11 seconds in 2021 [1].

The article featured the now famous Operation Greenup and its chief operator Frederick “Fred” Mayer. Operation Greenup was one of some thirty intelligence operations conducted by the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) division for Germany and Austria from Bari, Italy, with the target region of the southern parts of Germany, Slovakia, Hungary and Slovenia. The OSS launched a series of other operations into the German Reich from Switzerland, France, Scandinavia and the Netherlands, but none achieved the success of Operation Greenup. Altogether, the American and British forces carried out more than 21,000 airborne and parachute operations in Europe, nearly half of which supported the partisan movement in Yugoslavia.
