This happened in the night of Sunday 7 July / Monday 8 July 2013.
It is named "The Light Assassination" An unknown artist beamed this message and the picture of "Dotcom" below on the wall of the embassy building of the U.S.A. in Berlin. [Versteckter Link - Registrierung notwendig] Only the writening of "stasi" is wrong, the correct is "staasi", the hated secret service of the former GDR(east part of divided Germany). When you, like me, grew up in this state you'll remember very well and draw the comparison to the current spy affair of the N.S.A. It's always funny when the Yanks try to explain how democracy and a free open society work to the rest of the world.  Best Regards |

Belgian King Philippe Sworn In
[Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Crown Prince Philippe has been sworn in as the new Belgian king after the emotional abdication of his father Albert II. Philippe, the Oxford- and Stanford-educated prince, thus became the country's seventh king. To warm applause, King Philippe, 53, promised to uphold the constitution. Belgium has a constitutional monarchy in which the king plays a largely ceremonial role. Earlier in the day Belgium's King Albert II formally abdicated on grounds of ill health. In his final address as king on Sunday, the 79-year-old monarch said his country must remain a "source of inspiration" to Europe. "Give the future King Philippe and the future Queen Mathilde your active participation and your support," King Albert said in his address on Saturday. They make a great couple serving our country and they enjoy my full confidence," said the monarch, who resigned on Belgium's national day - after nearly 20 years on the throne. The monarch, 79, also stressed that his wish was that Belgium - split between the Flemish-speaking north and the French south - remained united. Kind Regards Shaky |

This happend yesterday here in Belgium
:9-year old girl from Balen ( Belgium ) died of E. coli Bacteria The nine year old girl from Balen that became infected after a barbecue last week with the E-Coli Bacteria is deceased yesterday at UZ Leuven ( UZ = University Hospital ) . This confirms a friend of the family. Aisha is Saturday deceased. In the course of the afternoon, the machines shut down. In the evening, around 21:45 is her official death established. Her parents are very pressed, "says Annemarie Kota. Initially it was reported that the girl became infected after eating a badly cooked piece of meat, but that's not certain. "There is a lot to do around the barbecue, but it is not one hundred percent sure she has eaten from that barbecue . According to the doctors, the cause may lie with eggs or beef that was not cooked properly. Fact is that its resistance was anyway lower than other people. therefore she was more susceptible to this infection and everything went faster. " The girl was suddenly very ill last week, after a barbecue at her parents' home in the Kempen Olmen (Balen). The child became infected with E. Coli bacteria and was first abdominal pain and diarrhea. Then her kidneys stopped working. Last Thursday she had a cardiac arrest. Since then, she was in very critical condition at the University Hospital Gasthuisberg in Leuven . Jan Verhaegen, bacteriologist of the UZ Leuven, warns now for poorly cooked meat. "It is the main breeding ground for the bacteria E. Coli," he. Warns For those who like to BBQ , let this be a warning !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My condolence goes ou to the family & friends !!! Regards Shaky |

I found this news very touching:
On Monday, the Texas State House voted overwhelmingly to pass a draconian proposal that would ban all abortions after 20 weeks, as well as adding stringent new restrictions on how clinics get licensed. The intent was clear: Supporters of the bill, known as SB 5, openly acknowledged that the law would have closed 37 of the state's 42 clinics, leaving hundreds of thousands of women in Texas and neighboring states like Oklahoma with no way to access abortion care. With a conservative majority in the State Senate and the support of Governor Rick Perry, the measure seemed certain to become law. But on Tuesday, Democratic State Senator Wendy Davis, backed by an army of feminist supporters, launched an epic 13-hour filibuster and shut the whole thing down. Davis began her filibuster just after 11 A.M. yesterday, reading aloud testimony from doctors and women who would be impacted by the restrictions. For the filibuster to work, Davis had to speak until midnight – the deadline for the end of a 30-day special session called by Gov. Perry to address left-over GOP priorities like closing nearly all the abortion clinics in the state and redistricting. This wasn't the kind of symbolic filibuster in name only seen in the U.S. Senate: Under Texas' parliamentary rules, Davis was required to speak continuously and only on the topic of the bill the entire time. She couldn't take breaks to eat, take a sip of water or go to the bathroom. She could not lean against anything for support. If Davis broke any of these rules, the filibuster would die and SB 5 would become law. Just before the midnight deadline, Texas Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst sustained a third and final challenge to Davis' filibuster – this one on the germaneness of discussing the 2011 law that forces Texas women to undergo invasive ultrasounds – and called for a vote. Hundreds of protesters who had gathered in the senate gallery erupted in outrage. With the clock still running, Davis' colleagues stepped up. State Senator Leticia Van De Putte, who arrived at the Capitol in the afternoon after spending the morning at her father's funeral, challenged Republican leaders at the podium who did not recognize one of her attempts to speak: "At what point does a female senator need to raise her voice to be heard over the male colleagues in the room?" Van De Putte's procedural mic drop prompted even louder, sustained cheering from the crowd; Republicans pounced on the chaos, trying to force through a vote. Confusion ruled as police began streaming through the Capitol to arrest protesters and clear the crowd. The Texas Senate website released a statement announcing that SB5 had passed – even as the Texas Tribune's Becca Aaronson reported that an official Senate timestamp showed the final vote approving SB5 was taken at 12:02 A.M., two full minutes past the deadline. As the dust settled, evidence emerged that Republicans had resorted to changing the timestamp in an attempt to fake the bill's passage. But with a gallery still packed with Democratic lawmakers and supporters – and upwards of 180,000 people around the country watching a livestream of events online – Republicans could sustain the fiction only so long. After three hours of continued protests, disputes and meetings inside Senate offices, state senators finally confirmed to the Texas Tribune the vote was invalid. The bill was dead.
