Front page of Stars and Stripes, 22 May 1945

By PFC. WILLIAMS LAND | STARS AND STRIPES May 22, 1945

Stars and Stripes presents these archive reports as they were written by the reporters in the field. The graphic and politically incorrect language used may be offensive to some readers.

Editor’s Note: A fortnight ago Bill Land, one of our battlefront reporters, learned that he was a father. Back to us by radio came this story of Oki’s orphans. Unable to go home to see his own daughter in Baton Rouge, La., Bill let himself go on Oki’s orphans – being left to die by the Sons of Heaven. But the GIs wouldn’t let the kids die…

OKINAWA – Here’s a story you could call “The Children’s Hour.” Ever since I got that radio about my new baby daughter I’ve had in mind writing a…

من أجل الشهرة والمال

Develop yourself and show your knowledge and talents to people through useful and meaningful content, and you will reach fame through effort and struggle, but beware that fame is your goal and your only message in life.

حلم الدرويش

أتاحت شبكة الإنترنت الفرصة أمام الناس لسهولة تداول المعلومات والتواصل بسهولة وسرعة مهما كانت المسافات بينهم , لكن انتشار مواقع التواصل الإجتماعى أظهر لنا بعض السلوكيات الخاطئة يمارسها عدد كبير من رواد هذه المواقع , وعندما تدقق هذه الممارسات وتحاول تحليلها تتوصل فى النهاية إلى أنها نابعة من هوس هؤلاء الأشخاص بالشهرة ومحاولة جلب عدد متابعين أكبر ومعجبين بما يقدم من محتوى يتوافق مع التفاهة والابتذال فى معظم الأوقات .

فى الماضى كانت الشهرة فى جانبها الإيجابى من نصيب كل فرد متميز فى مجاله العلمى أو الثقافى أو الفنى أو الإدارى وكل جوانب الحياة , أما فى عصر شبكات التواصل الإجتماعية ظهر مشاهير جدد يعرفون بمشاهير السوشيال ميديا , نجحوا فى جذب عدد كبير من المتابعين وفرض أفكارهم وسلوكياتهم على المجتمعات حتى لوكانت غريبة وشاذة ويساعدهم فى ذلك بعض المتابعين المهوسين بما يقدم من محتوى قد لا يهم شخص عاقل مثل الحياة اليومية بتفاصيلها لبعض الأشخاص وأماكن النوم والطعام ويتطور…

Violência Psicológica e Moral

The woman who lives in a situation of violence today, most have already suffered this violence on the part of her father, brother, stepfather. In other words, many have already grown up in a hostile environment. And then, there is the reason for the abuser to act naturally. Of course, this is not always the rule, but machismo, for example, is something that is passed on from generation to generation.

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

A Violência Psicológica, ela começa de um jeito sutil, mas, eu diria que ela tira o abusador sempre do anonimato. Por que digo isso? Porque todo manipulador emocional ele é cavalheiro, sedutor no início, mas no fim, torna-se insuportável.

É importante ressaltar que a violência psicológica é algo que atinge homens e mulheres. Porém, como estamos falando de violência doméstica nos últimos dias, falo de um comportamento que muitas vezes é encorajado desde a infância, muitas vezes pela mãe que não educa uma criança corretamente, e com isso, acaba ensinando o filho a ser homem que não tem a mínima preocupação em respeitar uma mulher na fase adulta.

A maior parte dos abusos, referem-se aos limites que a mãe, ou o pai não deram a seu filho no momento oportuno. Então, esse menino que um dia se tornará homem, vai achar que a violência é algo natural. E mais do…

VEM comigo!

“In the world, there are captivating lies and distorted truths that, when mixed with exaggerations born out of our mental disorganization, turn into monsters. How to beat them? Learning to negotiate with ourselves. “

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

“No mundo há mentiras cativantes e verdades distorcidas que ao serem misturadas a exageros nascidos apartir de nossa desorganização mental, se transformam em monstros. Como vencê-los? Aprendendo a negociar com nós mesmos. “

A magic to get perfect vision

themacbit

This is my story to achieve a perfect vision. From -7.5 myopia to the best possible eye sight.

Now, this already looks like a sci-fi article. A futuristic machine coming over you, throwing laser into the eyes. The doctor sliding his forceps over the cornea and bam!!!! everything is clearly visible. The process is called LASIK(They did some variant of LASIK on me, to be precise contoura-vision)

Here is a short description of my experience:-
However cool it might sound, the process is not so “lite”. You could see everything happening in front of your eyes(literally). Over that, you are totally conscious while the doctor does his surgery. Scary? Yes, it is. 
After the surgery, you realize that your vision is still blurry. Here comes the magical sleep- The sleep after surgery. When you wake up from this sleep, things are 80% normal. It takes nearly 1 week to completely…
