The Transition Report 2016-17 casts a spotlight on inequality and inclusion, explaining how a failure to deliver a fair distribution of the fruits of progress may lead to setbacks in political and economic development. It also explores the causes of inequality of opportunity and looks at how to strengthen financial inclusion.
Tracking the successes that have been achieved in post-communist societies, the report concludes that the “happiness gap” has finally closed with people on similar incomes in non-transition countries, but warns that not everyone has shared in this economic prosperity.
This latest annual analysis draws on a wide-ranging survey of people who have experienced transition first-hand.

Following the Moscow launch of the report on Chechen governor Ramzan Kadyrov analysing his involvement in political murders in Russia, Ilya Yashin, Deputy Chairman of the People's Freedom Party (PARNAS), is coming to Brussels to present the report to the EU public. The event is hosted by Guy Verhofstadt, ALDE President.
Petras Austrevicius, ALDE Vice President, will open the event. Andrew Rettman, Foreign Editor at the EU Observer, will offer his comments on the report and its implications for EU-Russia relations.
Nancy Bishop, senior research/lab technician, checks rain and other weather gauges at the Horticulture and Agroforestry Research Center in New Franklin. Each day Nancy uploads the recorded data to weather reporting sites and the CoCoRaHS precipiation monitoring network. "It only takes a couple of minutes and simple to do," said Nancy. "But this is extremely important data to have for our researchers and farmers across the country." In this instrument, Nancy checks an evaporation table to see how much water is evaporating.

Based on reports of the German invasion of France in 1940, the US Army realized its tank force was obsolete. The then-current M2 light tank design was upgraded to M3 standard, which added more armor and improved the suspension for a smoother ride. It retained the older 37mm gun, though the Army was aware the 37mm was inadequate for tank combat; the M3 would be used to supplement the more heavily-armed M4 Sherman then entering production. Moreover, US Army doctrine held that tanks were not supposed to engage other tanks, but rather exploit breakthroughs and tear up enemy rear areas. For this, the high speed of the M3 would be ideal. As another function of tanks, according to the Army, was infantry support, the Stuart was well-equipped with no less than five .30 caliber machine guns.
Production began in late 1941, shortly before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The British Army would be the first to use the M3 in combat, which they dubbed "Stuart," for the Confederate cavalry general J.E.B. Stuart (the name that stuck), or "Honey" for its reliability. Though the British found the 37mm to be nearly useless, too short-ranged, and the crew compartment to be very cramped, they liked the Stuart's reliability--it almost never broke down, even in the extreme conditions of the North African desert--and its speed. If Stuarts could not take on German tanks, they could certainly do a great deal of damage to soft-skinned vehicles and infantry.
The US would soon be using the Stuart in combat as well: the first tank-to-tank combat in American history would come between M3s of the US Army in the Philippines and Japanese Type 97s. The Stuarts came off second-best, but generally speaking the two tanks were comparable. American crews fighting in North Africa in 1942 recognized the same problems as the British, but also found the same values. Occasionally, even the Stuart could score notable successes: in 1943 in Tunisia, Lieutenant Colonel John Waters' task force of over a hundred Stuarts engaged a small force of German Tiger Is and succeeded in knocking them out with close range fire to the engine.
Though the US Army did recognize the Stuart's armament to be completely obsolete by 1943, it was still the best light tank in the inventory. A few improvements in armor and crew comfort were made in the M5 design, and though supplemented by the M24 Chaffee in 1944, Stuarts would form the bulk of Army light units until the end of the war. Others would fight in postwar campaigns in China, Pakistan and Angola, and were in Paraguayan service as late as 2002.
One of the lessons learned during the Tarawa campaign of late 1943 was that Japanese static defenses were very hard to crack. One weapon that was highly effective was the flamethrower, but getting a manpack flamethrower close enough to a bunker was a risky proposition for whoever was wearing it. The solution was to mount a flamethrower on a tank. The Canadians had adopted the British Ronson flamethrower on their Universal Carriers in Italy, and the Marines learned about it. 24 M3A1 Stuarts, withdrawn from service in favor of the M4 Sherman, were obtained by the USMC, and had their 37mm main guns replaced by Ronsons. Nicknamed "Satan" by their crews and the Marines that saw them in action, these modified Stuarts would first see action on Saipan in June 1944. As the Stuart was considered obsolete and vulnerable to light Japanese antitank weapons, the Satan didn't remain in service long, before being replaced by modified Shermans.
This Satan shows the modified turret and the barrel of the Ronson flamethrower; it is part of the Pacific display at the National Museum of Military Vehicles in Dubois, Wyoming.

03/28/2014 - 03/30/2014 She is an awake-walking daydreamer, a blurry contrast of multiple styles, an illusionist of the vivid pastel sound, a contemporary traditionalist, and a reflection of the modern crossover cultures. Grooving and atmospheric electronica where east meets west in a quirky way: it´s SIENNÁ.
Currently living in Norway but raised in Japan, SIENNÁ’s 'no rules' approach to creating intelligent groovy music is a beautiful reflection of the crossover cultures we see in the modern world.
Just as Björk, Yellow Magic Orchestra and Ryuichi Sakamoto - these out there visionaries create ambient and warm sonic contrasts, mixing Electronica, House, Jazz and Trad Japanese to become truely unique. It´s the definition of groove-phenomena, audio-sex to the weird and wonderful.
The avantgarde-trio consists of SIENNÀ on keyboards, vocals, DJ and programming. Hallvard Gaardløs on bass and guitarist Fredrik Karwowski.
The Murphy Report is the brief name of the report of an investigation conducted by government of Ireland into the Sexual abuse scandal in the Catholic archdiocese of Dublin. It was released in 2009, a few months after the report of the Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse (Ryan Report) chaired by Seán Ryan, a similar inquiry which dealt with abuses in industrial schools controlled by Roman Catholic religious institutes.
In October 2002, the television programme Prime Time broadcast a special report entitled Cardinal Secrets containing accounts of children abused by Catholic priests serving in the Archdiocese of Dublin, where complaints had been made at higher levels and effectively ignored, both by the church and by the national police force, the Garda Síochána (colloquially referred to as the "Garda" or the "gardaí", the latter word meaning "policemen"). This publicity led to the passage of the "Commission of Investigation Act 2004" mandating the establishment of a "Commission of Investigation, Dublin Archdiocese" to examine the manner in which allegations of sexual abuse of children by priests over the period 1975 to 2004 were dealt with by Church and State authorities. This act was implemented in March 2006. The Commission of Investigation has been headed by Judge Yvonne Murphy, a Circuit Court judge. The original brief was to report in 18 months, but such was the volume of evidence and allegations concerning the abusive behaviour of a sample batch of just 46 priests that time extensions had to be allowed.
Dan Rather was a soft-spoken Texan who eventually became a powerful figure within the CBS news department. He covered Vietnam, Watergate, presidential conventions and elections. in the late '70s Rather inherited the most important job in American television: he was Walter Cronkite's replacement for "The CBS Evening News." Rather's career would take an unfortunate nosedive when he reported on his news program material regarding President George W. Bush's enlistment with the Alabama Air National Guard. The controversy was so great and the large number of conservative groups, both political and in the media, had closed ranks against him, putting him under great scrutiny and pressure, thus forcing him to resign his position.
Update - August 29, 2019:
However, while gone from CBS and regular TV, Dan Rather can be found on the Internet, with the help of Facebook and Twitter, to name two sources. Rather is now an elder statesman of journalism, using his skills as a writer and experience as a journalist to keep the public informed of important matters, including his editorials about Donald Trump.
