(T)He Government Obviously Brushed A pig is any of the animals in the genus Sus, within the Suidae family of even-toed ungulates. Pigs include the domestic pig and its ancestor, the common Eurasian wild boar (Sus scrofa), along with other species; related creatures outside the genus include the babirusa and the warthog. Pigs, like all suids, are native to the Eurasian [1] and African continents. Juvenile pigs are known as piglets. Pigs are omnivores and are highly social and intelligent animals. The domestic pig (Sus scrofa domesticus) is usually given the scientific name Sus scrofa, although some authors call it S. domesticus, reserving S. scrofa for the wild boar. It was domesticated approximately 5,000 to 7,000 years ago. Their coats are coarse and bristly. They are born brownish coloured and tend to turn more grayish coloured with age. The upper canines form sharp distinctive tusks that curve outward and upward. Compared to other artiodactyles, their head is relatively long, pointed, and free of warts. Their head and body length ranges from 0.9 to 1.8 m (35 to 71 in) and they can weigh between 50 and 350 kg (110 and 770 lb). Ascaris is a genus of parasitic nematode worms known as the "Small intestinal roundworms". One species, A. suum, typically infects pigs, while another, A. lumbricoides, affects humans, typically people living in sub-tropical and tropical areas with poor sanitation. Their eggs are deposited in feces and soil. Plants with the eggs on them [1] will infect any organism that consumes them. A. lumbricoides is the largest intestinal roundworm and is the most common helminth infection of humans worldwide, a disease known as ascariasis. Swine influenza, also called pig influenza, swine flu, hog flu and pig flu, is an infection caused by any one of several types of swine influenza viruses.Swine influenza virus (SIV) or swine-origin influenza virus (S-OIV) is [2] any strain of the influenza family of viruses that is endemic in pigs. As of 2009, the known SIV strains include influenza C and the subtypes of influenza A known as H1N1, H1N2, H2N1, H3N1, H3N2, and H2N3. Influenza A (H1N1) virus is the subtype of influenza A virus that was the most common cause of human influenza (flu) in 2009. The City of Zamboanga (Chavacano: Ciudad de Zamboanga, Tagalog: Lungsod ng Zamboanga) is a highly urbanized city located in Mindanao,Philippines. It has a population of more than 807,129 according to the 2010 census.[1] Zamboanga is the 6th most populous and 3rd largest city by land area in the Philippines.[2][3] It is the commercial and industrial center of the Zamboanga Peninsula.[4] Zamboanga was the capital of the former Moro Province, now Mindanao, from 1903 to 1913. On September 15, 1911, the Municipalidad de Zamboanga was converted into a city by the legislative order Act. No.272.[5] Known for Hispanic influences in its culture, it bears the nickname "Asia's Latin City. The Subanen people's name for Zamboanga, 'Sung Lupa', means 'Pointed Land'. Speculation that the name of Zamboanga comes from the word 'Jambangan', meaning the 'Land of Flowers', Nur Misuari (Bahasa Sūg: Nūr Miswāri, born Nurallaj Misuari, 1942 in Jolo, Sulu, Philippines) is a Moro politician, founder and leader of the Moro National Liberation Front. The Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) is a rebel group that was founded by Nur Misuari in 1969.[1] The MNLF struggled against the Philippine Government (GPH) to achieve independence [2] of the Bangsamoro Land (or Bangsamoro Nation, or Mindanao Nation). TheMNLF-GPH Peace Process is ongoing since the 1976 and both parties are working together to negotiate the terms and conditions of the legal framework and implementation of genuine autonomy as a peaceful path towards independence.[3] As defined by the MNLF, the territory of Bangsamoro Land covers Sulu, Mindanao, Palawan, and Sabah. MNLF is internationally recognized by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation The term Bangsamoro refers to a people who are natives of the Sulu archipelago, parts of Mindanao, and parts of Palawan in the Philippines, and parts of Sabah in neighboring Malaysia at the time of conquest or [1] colonization. It comes from the Malay word bangsa, meaning nation or people, and the Spanish word moro, from the Spanish word for Moor, the Reconquista-period term used for Muslims. The peace advocacy group, In Peace Mindanao led by Bishop Felixberto Calang IFI, said “(T)he government obviously brushed off the MNLF’s independence declaration on August 12 this year in Sulu, little knowing that it posed a serious armed warning from a legitimate revolutionary movement that has obviously felt left out from the Framework Agreement of the Bangsamoro (FAB),” Calang said. Former Cotabato City Mayor Muslimin Sema, who heads one faction of the MNLF in Cotabato reportedly said that MNLF chair Nur Misuari might have believed that the government is moving to terminate the Tripartite Implementation Review of the 1996 Final Peace Agreement with the MNLF. Reports said that Misuari is in Indanan, Sulu, while MNLF Sulu commander Habier Malik has arrived in Barangay Sta. Barbara. The Bangsamoro region will cover Isabela City in Basilan, Cotabato City, six towns in Lanao del Norte, and some areas in North Cotabato, in addition to the existing ARMM provinces. The expanded ARMM currently consists of Basilan, Maguindanao, Lanao del Sur, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi. But let us point out what should be obvious. Misuari ran for governor of ARMM again, last May. He lost badly, winning only 10 percent of the vote (about a fifth of the total received by the winning candidate, Mujiv Hataman). Then he declared ―independence‖ on Aug. 12. Mujiv Sabbihi Hataman is a Filipino politician and current party-list representative of Anak Mindanao (AMIN) in the House of Representatives (2001–present). He is serving as the Regional Governor of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao after being appointed by President Benigno Aquino III. He started as a protégé of slain leader Wahab Akbar, A hashtag is a word or a phrase prefixed with the symbol #.[1][2] It is a form of metadata tag. Short messages on microblogging and social networking services such as Twitter, Tout, identi.ca,Tumblr, Instagram, Flickr, Google+ or Facebook may be tagged by putting "#" before important words, as in: #Wikipedia is an #encyclopedia that anyone can edit.. Peachy Rallonza-Bretaña became a central figure in the first massive protest under the Aquino administration. Bretaña insisted she was not a leader of the Aug. 26 march to Luneta—just the person who suggested the time and the place for the march. Currently, the Moro National Liberation Front is the Ruling Party of the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARMM). The "Wrecking Ball" video is directed by the ever-controversial fashion photographer Terry Richardson, best known for boundary pushing editorials in glossy magazines. The track is the latest single off of Cyrus' upcoming album, "BANGERZ." Due out on Oct. 4, "BANGERZ" is led by Cyrus' hit single, "We Can't Stop." "We Can't Stop" has offered its fair share of controversy for the 20-year-old singer. Cyrus made waves with the lyrics of the song, as the party track alluded to drug usage, as well as the accompanying visuals, as the music video showed a scantily clad Cyrus doing the twerking dance moves she is now famous for. Miley Cyrus’ new song “Wrecking Ball,” even though the official music video is not my cup of tea. However, The Gregory Brothers have managed to outdo her with their cover of it. The Gregory Brothers are the guys behind the famous Autotune the News and “The Bed Intruder Song” but, as it turns out, they’re also gifted musicians. Hannah Montana is an American television series that originally aired on the Disney Channel from March 24, 2006 until January 16, 2011. It aired ninety-eight episodes across four seasons. The series focused on Miley Stewart (portrayed by Miley Cyrus), a girl who lives a double life as an average teenager by day and a famous pop singer Hannah Montana by night. She conceals her identity from the public, other than her close friends and family. The series has been nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children's Program from 2007 through 2010.[1][2] Hannah Montana: The Movie was released in theaters on April 10, 2009. The third season of the series premiered on November 2, 2008 and ended on March 14, 2010. The show was renewed for the fourth and final[3] season, which started production on January 18, 2010, and ended production on May 14, 2010.[4] The final season premiered on July 11, 2010,[5][6] and became the last Disney Channel sitcom to transition from standard definition to high definition in the process. The fourth season of Hannah Montana was promoted as Hannah Montana Forever. The original idea for this show was based on the That's So Raven episode "Goin' Hollywood", which served as the backdoor pilot for a sitcom tentatively called Better Days to star Alyson Stoner, in which a child star of a popular TV show of the same name was to try her hand at going to a normal school. The theme song for Hannah Montana is "The Best of Both Worlds" written by Matthew Gerrard and Robbie Nevil, produced by Gerrard and performed by Miley Cyrus (as Hannah Montana).

  • Broadcasting the Bedroom: Intimate Musical Practices and Collapsing Contexts on Youtube
    Broadcasting the bedroom: Intimate musical practices and collapsing contexts on YouTube Maarten Michielse In an era of social media and online participation, uploading a personal video to a platform such as YouTube appears to be an easy and natural activity for large groups of users.i Various discourses on online narcissism and exhibitionism (Balance, 2012; Keen, 2007, 2012; Twenge and Campbell, 2010) give the impression that current generations have become extremely comfortable (perhaps even too comfortable) with the online possibilities of self-exposure and self-representation (Mallan, 2009). As I will argue in this chapter, however, this is largely a misrepresentation of the everyday struggles and experiences of online participants. For many, posting a video on YouTube is a rather ambivalent activity: joyful and fun at times, but also scary and accompanied by feelings of insecurity, especially when the content is relatively delicate. This shows itself perhaps most clearly in a particular genre of online videos: the ‘musical bedroom performance’. On YouTube, this genre has become a popular trope in the last couple of years. In these videos, a person sings and/or plays a musical instrument in front of the camera from the private sphere of the home. As Jean Burgess (2008) argues, the musical bedroom performance ‘draws on the long traditions of vernacular creativity articulated to ‘privatised’ media use’ (p. 107).ii Historically, the bedroom has functioned as a crucial site for cultural expression and experimentation. This is especially true for teenagers and young adults, for whom the bedroom is, as Sian Lincoln (2005) writes, a domain ‘in which they are able to exert some control, be creative and make that space their own’ (p.

    REVOLUTIONARY NETWORKS? AN ANALYSIS OF ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN IN TERRORIST GROUPS by Bradley J. McAllister (Under the Direction of Sherry Lowrance) ABSTRACT This dissertation is simultaneously an exercise in theory testing and theory generation. Firstly, it is an empirical test of the means-oriented netwar theory, which asserts that distributed networks represent superior organizational designs for violent activists than do classic hierarchies. Secondly, this piece uses the ends-oriented theory of revolutionary terror to generate an alternative means-oriented theory of terrorist organization, which emphasizes the need of terrorist groups to centralize their operations. By focusing on the ends of terrorism, this study is able to generate a series of metrics of organizational performance against which the competing theories of organizational design can be measured. The findings show that terrorist groups that decentralize their operations continually lose ground, not only to government counter-terror and counter-insurgent campaigns, but also to rival organizations that are better able to take advantage of their respective operational environments. However, evidence also suggests that groups facing decline due to decentralization can offset their inability to perform complex tasks by emphasizing the material benefits of radical activism.

II ABSTRACT ger Unter dem Deckmantel der Globalisierung stärken Projekte wie die ‚Belt and Road Initiative‘ transnationale Verbindungen und rücken dadurch Kontinente und Städte näher zusammen. Die Vernetzung zwischen Europa und China hat bereits vor 100 Jahren einen ersten Höhepunkt erreicht und ist jetzt, wenngleich eingebettet in unterschiedlichen Rahmenbedingungen und trotz zwischenzeitlicher Unterbrechung, intensiver als je zuvor. Der globale Trend der Urbanisierung betrifft sowohl Shanghai als auch Wien. Das städtische Wachstum bildet die Grundlage für Herausforderungen, die sowohl Umwelt als auch Menschen tangieren. Darauf aufbauend, entwickeln sich stetig und unter wechselseitigem Einfluss, soziokulturelle Dynamiken und in weiterer Folge Strategien, die nicht zuletzt Veränderungen der urbanen Struktur mit sich bringen und sich in sozialer und physischer Hinsicht manifestieren. Ein spezifischer Gebäudetyp, der in diesem Zusammenhang offensichtlich Städte weltweit erobert hat und dem außerdem das Potential hoher Effizienz zugesprochen wird, ist das Hochhaus.

  • Bearers of the Sword Radical Islam, Philippines Insurgency, and Regional Stability
    WARNING! The views expressed in FMSO publications and reports are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the official policy or position of the Department of the Army, Department of Defense, or the U.S. Government. Bearers of the Sword Radical Islam, Philippines Insurgency, and Regional Stability by Dr. Graham H. Turbiville, Jr. Introduction In the immediate aftermath of the 11 September 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, U.S. President George W. Bush and his national security leadership articulated objectives for a wide- ranging war against terrorism. Six months later, these objectives remain focused on destroying international terrorist centers, dismantling terrorist networks around the world, and punishing states that support terrorist activities. The Al-Qaeda terrorist organization--sponsors of the 11 September attacks and earlier terrorist assaults on U.S. people, property, and interests--remains a high priority. As Al-Qaeda's principal bases and leadership cadres in Afghanistan were destroyed and its Taliban supporters routed, U.S. planners shifted resources and focus to other Al-Qaeda cells and associates operating in dozens of countries around the world. The U.S. national leadership emphasized that these groupings--and other terrorist organizations as well-- constituted legitimate targets in the global war on terrorism. Among those targets receiving early attention from the U.S leadership was a small, violent Islamic group that-- despite origins in the 1979-1989 Soviet-Afghan War--operates in the jungles, hills, towns, and coastal waters of the southern Philippines.1 This group is Abu Sayyaf , meaning Bearer of the Sword in Arabic, that has become noted for its ambushes of government forces, kidnappings, piracy, and the not infrequent beheading of captives.
