I saw a couple sea gulls today having a lively politcal debate!
[I don't want to know who you're voting for...I just posted this for fun and to reflect the intense atmosphere this week].
مَــوطِــنِــي مَــوطِــنِــي ,هـــــلْ أراكْ سـالِماً مُـنَـعَّـماً وَ غانِـمَاً مُـكَرَّمَاً ,هـــــلْ أراكْ فـي عُـــلاكْ تبـلُـغُ السِّـمَـاكْ ,مَــوطِــنِــي مَــوطِــنِــي

I usually don't share stuff like this...but whenever I watch tv I usually draw the subject (I have hundreds of drawings of Nicolas Cage for example). This was what I was drawing during the debates last night.
P.S. everyone should read David Byrne's new book, "How Music Works". Great representation of the creative process.
Do you want the opportunity to have your say in suggesting priorities in European space programmes?
Well, now you have the chance, because on 10 September 2016, over 2000 citizens from 22 European countries will participate in the first ever Citizens’ Debate on Space for Europe. Never before has the future of space activities been addressed in such an event held across so many countries.
In the course of the day, if you’re lucky enough to be selected, you’ll have the opportunity to learn, debate and participate in suggesting priorities on all aspects of current and future European space programmes.
This consultation on an unprecedented scale will take place simultaneously in all 22 ESA Member States, with around 100 people from each country gathered at various locations. The results of the consultation will be collated – as early as 48 hours after the debate takes place – and communicated to ESA.
ESA Director General Jan Woerner emphasised his commitment to ESA further engaging in a dialogue with European citizens and said, “Spaceflight, space science, exploration, Earth observation, telecommunication, satellite navigation, space technology and innovation can all help respond to societal challenges and be a source of inspiration to future generations. European citizens can help us better assess our priorities.”
You have until 4 September to sign up, so check our website and join the debate!

Don't know who originated this (anyone have details? I would prefer to give credit) but have seen it in emails and blogs. Had to snag a copy for my Flickr group March from Monkey to Man. Thanks to MR for the suggestion. Based on a strange moment after the third debate.

"Debates are punctuated with vigorous gestures which enliven the ambience of the occasion. Each gesture has a meaning. The debater presents his case with subtlety, robed in a formal monk’s attire. Some of the gestures (said to have symbolic value), made during the debates, generally subtle dramatic gestures are: clapping after each question; holding right hand and stretching left hand forward and striking the left palm with the right palm; clapping hands loudly to stress the power and decisiveness of the defender’s arguments denoting his self-assurance; in case of wrong answer presented by the defender, the opponent gestures three circles with his hand around the defenders head followed by loud screaming to unnerve the defender; opponent's mistake is demonstrated by wrapping his upper robe around his waist; loud clapping and intense verbal exchange is common; and the approach is to trap the defender into a wrong line of argument. Each time a new question is asked, the teacher strikes his outstretched left palm with his right palm. When a question is answered correctly, it is acknowledged by the teacher bringing the back of his right hand to his left palm. When the defender wins the debate he makes an allegorical dig at the questioner by questioning his basic wisdom as a Buddhist."

Betelnut girls (Binlang Xi Shi/檳榔西施) are a unique part of Taiwan culture. They sit in brightly-decorated glass booths wearing skimpy outfits, and sell cigarettes, drinks and betelnut to passing drivers. It’s a controversial trade but not actually illegal. The question of whether the girls are exploited is open to debate – certainly their own perception is mostly that they are doing a job like any other, and the less they choose to wear, the more they sell. For more info, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betel_nut_beauty and follow the links to the video and pictures.
