The first cases of rabies in Bali were reported in 2008. FAO established a technical assistance project with the Government of Indonesia with the aim of supporting national efforts to control the disease on Bali. This was to be achieved by establishing an effective programme to coordinate and facilitate rabies control with government agencies and partner organizations. As a result of the programme, human rabies cases were reduced from eleven per month in 2010 to just one per month the following year. Following a mass vaccination of dogs, there was another major reduction in 2012 and 2013, bringing the number of reported cases down to only one human case in all of 2013. The model developed in Bali is now being modified as appropriate and used in other affected parts of Indonesia to progressively control and eliminate the virus from the entire country.

The Australian federal court recently ruled that the federal government has a duty of care to protect future generations from climate harm, and the federal government is seeking to appeal this ruling.
Extinction Rebellion staged an action at the front of Federal Treasurer Josh Frydenberg's electoral office to demand that the government take its commitment to protecting future generations seriously. Two activists scaled the roof and remained in place for close to six hours as police were reportedly reluctant to make any arrests. Several activists also glued on the front door entrance to the office.

A windmill to produce electricity might become a good option in Iceland. This windmill is located on a farm named Belgsholt in Melasveit, about 15-20 minutes from Akranes.
Windmills should be quite useful in Iceland since we often have plenty of wind :-)

The famous Secret Room (Gabinetto Segreto / Secret Cabinet) houses the erotica collection of the Visit the National Museum of Archaeology in Naples. For long, these erotica objects from Roman antiquity could only be seen with the personal permission of the king of Naples. It has only been open permanently to the general public for the last two decades or so – children may still only enter together with adults.
Many of the objects came from Pompeii where phallic symbols were quite prominently displayed both in public and private households. Priapus was a popular subject. An erect phallus was seen in Pompeii as a symbol of fertility, good luck, and wealth, and not necessarily as sexual.
Some of the erotica is of very high artistic quality while others are not much more than schoolboy smut that managed to survive for nearly two millennia. The Garden of Delights Room in the Altes Museum in Berlin also has a remarkable collection of erotica from antiquity on permanent display.
→ See also Visit the National Museum of Archaeology in Naples for more on one of the finest collections of antiquities in the world, including the marvelous Farnese sculptures (including Hercules at Rest and the Farnese Toro) and the best artworks, mosaics, as well as frescoes from the excavations of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
The Historic Grand Army of the Republic Hall in Litchfield is the only one of its kind remaining in the state of Minnesota and one of only three in the United States. The Grand Army of the Republic was an organization of men who were veterans of the Union army who fought in the War Between the States, 1861-1865.
Today the old hall still stands much as it did well over a century ago. It is now used as a museum to preserve relics and records of America's tragic and unnecessary conflict, often misnamed the Civil War.
Being a history buff, and a descendent of several Confederate veterans, I have long had a special interest in the War Between the States, so I enjoyed visiting this historic old hall and exploring many of the exhibits.
