More About Pluto

Submitted by ub on

The Planet Pluto orbits from billions of miles away. It is much smaller than any of the official planets and now classified as a "dwarf planet".

Pluto is smaller than seven of the solar system's moons the Moon, Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, Titan and Triton.

Now, images from the closest approach of the New Horizons spacecraft, offer the highest resolution images we’ll see of the icy surface.

Journalisten and Research

Submitted by ub on

Unless an individual engages an interview without notice, there is a need for research with good background and knowledge.

Learning what you can about the person, or topics will help to put you on the correct footing.

What style do they like to adopt in interviews? And what has been said on these subjects before?

We need factual information when we are trying to hold someone in authority to account and to challenge them on their assertions, to get them to explain clearly what they are talking about and to support any case they want to put to forth.

Global Refugee Crisis

Submitted by ub on

Although refugees have long been a constant and for years accepted as part of human migration, the development of the nation-state and fixed borders in the 19th century has forced some countries to shun refugees and turn them into international pariahs.

Today, a global human tragedy of refugees now appears to be spreading everywhere. What in the world must we do to react? The plight of desperate people who are trying to flee their homes by land or sea is a humanitarian crisis that needs to be addressed.

Two titans from the non religious side of Christmas will be illuminated today: Rockefeller Center in New York City and the one at The U.S. Capitol in Washington.

The New York tree is a massive 10-ton, 78-foot Norway spruce from the Hudson Valley. It was hoisted into place last month. The annual tree-lighting ceremony attracts tens of thousands of spectators and is watched by millions more live on television.
