Louisiana trio imprisoned for 28 years freed after judge tosses murder convictions | Louisiana | The Guardian

Bernell Juluke, one of three men freed from the Angola prison on Wednesday. ‘You deserve the utmost apology,’ Judge Tracey Flemigs-Davillier said.

At an emotionally charged post-conviction hearing on Wednesday, prosecutors for the Orleans parish district attorney’s civil rights division presented evidence in court that linked the 1994 murder to disgraced former police officers Len Davis and Sammie Williams. Records revealed the pair were the first officers present at the scene of the shooting.

Prosecutors also unveiled additional evidence of innocence, involving the testimony and credibility of the lone eyewitness to the shooting, which had been withheld from the defense at trial.

Davis, who is currently on federal death row after being convicted on multiple civil rights charges, became a key target in an FBI undercover operation in the mid-90s as it emerged the patrolman was a lead enforcer in a protection racket for city drug dealers operated by corrupt police officers. During the investigation, Davis was recorded on a wiretap commissioning a hit on a woman named Kim Groves, who had filed a brutality complaint against his partner Williams. Groves was murdered less than two months after the Santinac killing.

DeSantis Is Slamming Covid Vaccines. Here’s Why. – Mother Jones – (Me: Pure politics and playing to a blinded biased GOP base)

Both Desantis’ and Ladapo’s claims are misleading: Public health officials did not “lie to us” about the Covid vaccines; rather, they were far more effective at preventing transmission of the original strain of the virus and continue to be extremely effective at preventing hospitalization and death. And, as the Washington Post reported, experts have pointed out a few problems with the logic underpinning Lapado’s new guidance: it drew from potentially inaccurate death certificates instead of medical records; it excludes anyone with Covid from the analysis; and it extrapolates from just 20 deaths that occurred—in some cases, as long as a month after vaccination.

Romanian environmentalists battle to save rare million-year-old species of fish | Euronews

In a race against time to save the rarest fish in Europe, a team of environmentalists and experts are developing a sanctuary for the asprete, a rare species of fish also called the living fossil.

As old as the dinosaurs, it is only found in one river in Romania and it’s on the brink of extinction.

While the authorities thought there were only 15 fish left in the river, a team of experts found 57 specimens in just one day of exploration.

Un artista de las letras, un escritor

Eres artista de las letras cuando, en el sendero de tu vida, ya no te concibes sin escribir y sabes que se trata de tu encomienda, tu motivo, tu delirio, tu locura, tu pasión, tu destino. Cuando las letras y las palabras son tu inspiración y las conviertes en poemas, cuentos, novelas y relatos, en una producción creativa genuina, sin copias de obras ajenas ni plagios a otros autores, eres, en verdad, un escritor. Un día aprendes que ser artista no consiste en apariencias ni en poses, quizá porque el escritor no es maniquí que espera aplausos, luces y proyectores, ni tampoco vendedor de baratijas ni mercenario de obras, y menos bufón o político en busca de seguidores; es, ante todo, un creador, un ser que trae consigo la fórmula de la inmortalidad, una criatura que expresa, sin duda…

The Life-Saving Touch

Siva jyothi

A man was asked to paint a boat. He brought his paint and brushes and began to paint the boat a bright red, as the owner asked him.

While painting, he noticed a small hole in the hull, and quietly repaired it.

When he finished painting, he received his money and left.

The next day, the owner of the boat came to the painter and presented him with a nice check, much higher than the payment for painting.

The painter was surprised and said “You’ve already paid me for painting the boat Sir!”

“But this is not for the paint job. It’s for repairing the hole in the boat.”

“Ah! But it was such a small service… certainly it’s not worth paying me such a high amount for something so insignificant.”

“My dear friend, you do not understand. Let me tell you what happened:

“When I asked you to paint…

MULHER Do ostracismo à luta pelos direitos nos dias atuais

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Eu, Marii tenho que compartilhar algo muito especial com todos vocês. Ontem, recebi da Editora Viseu o meu livro: MULHER Do ostracismo à luta pelos direitos nos dias atuais.

O livro é fruto de uma construção que vem desde muito tempo. Na verdade, esse livro foi nascendo em mim há anos. Mas, foi no dia a dia, e no passar natural das coisas, que ele foi sendo tecido através de ideias. Eu nunca gostei de injustiças como desdenhar de quem é diferente de nós, seja pela cor, sexo, raça e outros. Mas, não era só isso, a dor da injustiça – como vemos nos dias atuais, é para refletirmos a respeito, porque a injustiça que se causa a um, muitas vezes atinge a todos. Quando criança, algumas coisas já me traziam um certo incômodo como por exemplo, a questão da violência doméstica. A filha que presencia determinadas cenas no lar…
