The 9/11 terrorist attacks were a seminal moment for our nation, as one of the worst days in American history brought out the best of the American spirit.
Before the smoke had cleared, the American Red Cross in Greater New York met the challenge of the 9/11 attacks with immediate on-the-scene responses. As the embers smoldered and eventually burned out, Red Cross work continued.

It is loved and it is hated. It is a shining example of how good-value food can be brought to a mass market. It is a symbol of everything that is wrong with ‘industrialized’, capitalist, bland, high-calorie and environmentally unfriendly commercialism. It is the best-known and most loved fast food brand in the world with more than 36,000 restaurants in 117 countries, providing jobs for 1.7 million staff and feeding 69 million customers per day (yes, per day!). It is part of the homogenization of individual national cultures, filling the world with bland, identical, ‘cookie cutter’, Americanized and soulless operations that dehumanize its staff by forcing them to follow ridged and over-defined procedures. But whether you see it as friend, foe, or a bit of both, McDonald’s has revolutionized the food industry, affecting the lives of both the people who produce food and the people who eat it. It has also had its ups (mainly) and downs (occasionally) as markets, customers and economic circumstances change. Yet, even in the toughest times it has always displayed remarkable resilience. What follows is a brief (for such a large corporation) summary of its history.
Starting small:
Central to the development of McDonald’s is Ray Kroc, who by 1954 and at the age of 52 had been variously a piano player, a paper cup salesman and a multi-mixer salesman. He was surprised by a big order for eight multi-mixers from a restaurant in San Bernardino, California. When he visited the customer he found a small but successful restaurant run by two brothers Dick and Mac McDonald. They had opened their ‘Bar-B-Que’ restaurant 14 years earlier, and by the time Ray Kroc visited the brothers’ operation it had a self-service drive-in format with a limited menu of nine items. He was amazed by the effectiveness of their operation. Focusing on a limited menu including burgers, fries and beverages had allowed them to analyse every step of the process of producing and serving their food. Ray Kroc was so impressed that he persuaded the brothers to adopt his vision of creating McDonald’s restaurants all over the USA, the first of which opened in Des Plaines, Illinois, in June 1955. However, later, Kroc and the McDonald brothers quarrelled, and Kroc bought them out. Now with exclusive rights to the McDonald’s name, the restaurants spread, and in five years there were 200 restaurants through the USA. Yet ...

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.
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.
