narcissism نرجسية

Narcissistic traits . It is not a discovery of course to say, that narcissists are not people who like themselves. Too focused on them. On their egos . Their own benefits and it is only them that they see. We confuse them with selfish characteristics which is of course inclusive. But I tend to also realize that there is a trait whereas, the narcissist actually focus on what the others think about him and how they see him. This makes him appear in a more likable level.

Knowing too many narcissists made me an expert

AMERICA/CHILE – Indigenous people, poor people, young people and migrants: “the new faces of the excluded”

Santiago – The “Justice and Peace” Commission of the Social Pastoral Caritas in Chile, a body of the Episcopal Conference, presented the document “Equity and development in Chile: the new faces of the excluded”, which aims to promote dialogue on integral development with maggior equity. The Chilean Catholic Church explains in the document that “excessive economic and social differences among family members or people are scandalous and are opposed to social justice, equity, the dignity of the human person and social and international peace”.
The 33-page document is divided into three parts: it reports the details of the situation of inequality in Chile, then cites “the elements that contribute to ethical values” and finally, “calls to focus on proposals to help address the challenge of a more just and equitable society”. The text, as demonstrated by the note sent to Fides, is an invitation to reflect and, above all, to talk once again about the issue of equity which seriously undermines the foundations of the social system.

Israel outraged by Palestinians donating to rebuild demolished homes

PNN/ Bethlehem/
Israeli media on Thursday morning reported an Israeli outrage by the Palestinians donating money to rebuild the demolished homes of those who have been killed by IOF.

According to Walla Israeli website, the Israeli army said that these donations are ruining the Israeli “deterrence policies” against Palestinian resistance.

Walla added that Israel accuses the Palestinian Authority of supporting these donations, in midst of PA calling on IOF not to continue collective punishments and demolitions, as they “increase tensions.”

Palestinians in West Bank have started a donation campaign to rebuild the home of 19-year-old Muhannad Al-Halabi near Ramallah, after it was destro

yed by IOF last Saturday.

Al-Halabi was shot dead by IOF on 3 October 2015, after allegedly stabbing, killing two settlers and injuring another.

Spokesman of the campaign Abdul Karim Abu Arqoub said that the donations reached $38,000 on the first day. Middle East Monitor said.

 

Last month, Palestinians also bought and furnished a new home for the family of Ibrahim Al-Akkari in Shu’afat refugee camp, East Jerusalem.

Israel is still going strong with demolition policy, destroying homes under different pretexts, which include security reasons, a lack of building licences, being built near the settlements or across the settlement roads, being built on state lands or being built on green areas, Days of Palestine said.

According to a PLO affiliated study, IOF have destroyed some 478 Palestinian facilities, including homes, clinics and historical sites during 2015.

An Atlantic Hurricane…in January : Image of the Day

Hurricanes have arrived early this year in the northern hemisphere. Just days after hurricane Pali became the earliest Central Pacific hurricane on record, the Atlantic basin spun up its own unusual storm. On January 14, 2016, a tropical depression in the eastern Atlantic evolved into hurricane Alex; it became the earliest hurricane in the basin since 1938 and just the fourth January hurricane in 150 years of records.At 11:00 a.m. Azores time (13:00 Universal Time) on January 14, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this view of hurricane Alex. Two hours after the image was acquired, the storm was reported to have sustained winds of 75 knots (85 miles or 140 kilometers per hour) and a central pressure of 981 millibars.
