Welcome to the new Mizzima Weekly !
Mizzima Media Group is pleased to announce the relaunch of Mizzima Weekly. Mizzima is dedicated to helping our readers and viewers keep up to date on the latest developments in Myanmar and related to Myanmar by offering analysis and insight into the subjects that matter. Our websites and our social media channels provide readers and viewers with up-to-the-minute and up-to-date news, which we don’t necessarily need to replicate in our Mizzima Weekly magazine. But where we see a gap is in providing more analysis, insight and in-depth coverage of Myanmar, that is of particular interest to a range of readers.
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

role of women and girls in various terror groupssadiakorobi2
Women have three distinct types of involvement: direct involvement in terrorist acts; enabling of others to commit such acts; and facilitating the disengagement of others from violent or extremist groups.
4. On April 15 the United States commemorates the 150th anniversary of
President Abraham Lincoln’s assassination
Former U.S. Rep. Abraham Lincoln defeated four candidates in 1861 to
claim the presidency. In 1862, in the midst of the Civil War, the embattled
president issued a preliminary decree stating that unless the rebellious
states returned to the Union by Jan. 1, freedom would be granted to slaves
in those states.
No Confederate states took the offer. On Jan. 1, 1863, Lincoln presented
the Emancipation Proclamation, which did not free all slaves but rather
declared free those slaves living in states that had seceded from the Union.
Lincoln was re-elected president Nov. 8, 1864, but less than six months
later he was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth.
5. Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, in a head-and-shoulders portrait taken by photographer Alexander Gardner on February 5, 1865.
Traditionally called "last photograph of Lincoln from life", this final photo in Lincoln's last photo session was long thought to have been made on April 10, 1865, but
more recent research has indicated the earlier date in February. The crack comes from the original negative, which was broken and discarded back in 1865. The
entirety of the American Civil War took place while Lincoln was in office, starting a month after he was elected, and ending just days before his assassination in
April of 1865.

portrait on the US five-dollar bill, according to the Library of Congress. (Anthony Berger/Library of Congress via Reuters)
7. Another view shows Lincoln with McClellan and his officers at the Antietam battlefield in Maryland. The 1862 battle has been called "the bloodiest single day in
American history;" 23,000 men were killed or injured. After the battle, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which was quickly dubbed the "Miscegenation
Proclamation" by his pro-slavery foes.

11. President Lincoln stands with Gen. George McClellan (facing Lincoln) at the Antietam battlefield in Maryland in 1862, during the Civil War. The anonymous authors

An artist's rendering of President Abraham Lincoln, his wife,
Mary Todd, and his two sons, Robert and Tad, was found in a
family album belonging to Mrs. James Gaines of Philadelphia.

rare. Its owner is a descendant of William Wallace, who was
married to one of Mary Todd's sisters.

This March 6, 1865, photo, provided by the Keya Morgan collection/Lincoln Images and carrying the seal of photographer Henry F. Warren, shows the White House

House, and the first photo ever to have been taken of a president in front of the White House.
16. Father and son. Associated Press
President Abraham Lincoln poses with his youngest son Thomas, nicknamed Tad, in this undated photo, which was found in a family album belonging to Mrs.
James Gaines of Philadelphia. The boy was known for being a sensitive youngster. On Christmas 1864, Tad, then 10, took the spirit of the season to heart and
invited some street urchins into the White House for a meal. The cooks refused to feed the children until Tad took up the issue with the president, who ordered that
the children be fed.

the earlier surrender of Robert E. Lee. After he shot Lincoln at Ford's Theater, in Washington, District of Columbia, on April 14, 1865, he fled to a farm in rural
northern Virginia, but was tracked down 12 days later, and killed by a Union soldier

1865.
42. Suspicion rose quickly that Booth had acted as part of a conspiracy
of Southern sympathizers. The manhunt lasted nearly two weeks
while the nation mourned its fallen president. Booth believed he
would be lauded as a hero in the South for the act, but a reading of
newspapers smuggled to him while he hid in southern Maryland
destroyed that assumption. He wrote in his journal, "After being
hunted like a dog through swamps, woods, and last night being
chased by gunboats till I was forced to return wet, cold, and
starving ... I am here in despair."

70. When we think of Abraham Lincoln, we most likely picture him wearing one of his trademark stovepipe top hats. This one he wore to Ford's Theatre that night had a
mourning band for son Willie, who died in February 1862 at age 11, probably of typhoid fever.
71. Booth used this single-shot .44-caliber derringer, which could be slipped inside a pocket, from close range. The weapon is in the Ford's Theatre exhibit "Silent
Witnesses: Artifacts of the Lincoln Assassination." Tracey Avant, curator of the exhibit (through May 25), said the items are from many people who were at the play,
and the focus is not on Booth and his conspirators. Still, "we felt we couldn't do this without the derringer." Booth famously uttered "Sic semper tyrannis" ("Thus
always to tyrants") after he leaped to the stage, breaking his leg.
73. President Abraham Lincoln's statue at the Lincoln Memorial is seen in Washington on March 27. The 170 ton, 19 foot high statue, formed from 28 blocks of Georgia marble, was
