The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

There are 40+ species of ladybird in the UK - they help maintain healthy ecosystems in gardens and green spaces. Ladybirds need safe places to shelter and hibernate over winter, so avoid cutting back hollow stems and seed heads like teasels & sedums.

Women Work Fewer Hours Than Men

Panel 1 In the foreground, a middle-aged man types on his laptop. Behind him, a yelling child is calling to the man, while the child’s mother, holding an infant, shushes him. A caption shows us what the man is typing. JUNIOR: Dad! Dad! DAD! MOTHER: Junior, let your father work. CAPTION: “The ‘wage gap’…” Panel 2 Same scene. The boy has calmed down, and the mother is bringing him along by the shoulder as she exits. The mother looks exhausted, and the baby is pulling on her hair. MOTHER: I’m going out – I have to meet with Junior’s teacher and do groceries and pick up your dry cleaning and… CAPTION: “…mostly disappears….” Panel 3 The mom has departed, but the man, still typing, turns his head to call out after her. MAN: Oh, the nursing home left a message about my mother… Would you take care of that? CAPTION: “…when you control for the fact…” Panel 4 The man turns back to typing. MAN (thought balloon): Hope she makes stew for dinner tonight. CAPTION: “…that women work far fewer hours than men.”

Successive Indonesian governments made vague promises that they failed to keep. Bedjo Untung of the 1965 Murder Victims Research Foundation said, “Not a single 1965 survivor or family could get a court decision to document what they had suffered” www.hrw.org/news/2025/09...
Indonesia’s Mass Killings 60 Years on Still Demand Justice
The 1965-66 massacres were among the darkest days in Indonesian history. Marxism and communism remain banned in the country and continue to be applied to target critics of the government.

Most frameworks to assess #pharmaceutical #systems focus on national level, but many key functions, eg medicine distribution and use, are managed locally. We present a method to assess #local pharmaceutical systems & identify ways to improve their #performance.

The Center for Southeast Asian Studies (CSEAS) at the University of Michigan announced today that all of its federal funding has been cancelled.

The announcement drips with disbelief and sadness, as you might imagine. The notion that the Center "doesn't advance American interests" is beyond inane.
I am sad and frankly, ashamed, to have to tell you that on Wednesday evening I received word from the US Department of Education that all the federal funding to the Center had been cancelled. Every other area studies center at U. Michigan and all of the SE Asian Studies National Resource Centers in the US received the same cancellation letter at the same time. In their own words, the administration decided that our programs, “‘are inconsistent with Administration priorities and do not advance American interests or values.’ As such, the Department has determined that continuation of the following programs is not in the best interest of the Federal Government.” Perhaps there is one amongst you who agrees with this statement. I have not met that person. I have met many of you who have had your lives changed by the opportunity to learn Southeast Asian languages with the support of FLAS fellowships. Who were able to spend semesters in Ann Arbor on leave from your institutions in SE Asia, working with our fabulous library resources. Who conducted Master’s and PhD thesis research with support from the Center and from the Fulbright-Hays Grants. Who have enjoyed the Gamelan and Rondalla performances that cap our SE Asian music courses. The funds for these undertakings are now terminated.
