Blonde women are arguably the most sexually objectified and stereotyped women, but could this equate to more #metoo scenarios for blondes? Women often report experiencing increased attention and harassment from strangers as a given when going blonde. With an increased level of sexual attention and harassment, do women with blonde hair (from the bottle or not) have a greater risk of sexual assault than brunettes?  

My First Day as a First-Time Blonde…

Yesterday I was a brunette. Using the magical powers of bleach I am now a first-time “blonde” (#silverhairtrend). It’s only hair…right? I immediately learned my error the moment I exited the hairdressers!

The streets feel different: there is definitely more regular catcalling, definitely more leering, I’m definitely approached more, and the creep/stalker factor definitely went up a very hefty notch. I mean, being a woman (#metoo), unwanted sexual attention is certainly not unusual, but at this frequency (#nonstop) and extra level of invasiveness…really?

I had no idea that blonde women have it this bad.

Why? Is it just me? Or do all blondes get harassed more on the street…and beyond? Should I be brushing up on my Krav Maga? Is it time to invest in my first pepper spray? If in doubt, research!

What Research Says… Question 1: Are Blondes Stereotyped as Sex Objects? Sources say YES!

There are no statistics released regarding hair color and rates of harassment or sexual assault. One thing research has made clear is that blonde women are more sexually objectified than brunettes, i.e., reduced to a sexual object, rather than being seen as a full person. Similarly, research strongly demonstrates that the greater the sexual objectification the less deserving of respect a woman is considered to be.

In the brain, women that are more sexually objectified are considered less human and are more likely to be processed by the male brain like a toaster or a sheep than a human! (The reverse relationship hasn’t been found in women’s brains, the tendency demonstrated thus far is to process sexually objectified men as human beings, not objects or animals).

As reported in both qualitative research and popular media, women who have been on both sides of the peroxide bottle before commonly report more encounters with strangers where they feel to be treated more like an object, are presumed to be dumber, receive less respect, are taken less seriously, and receive aggression more readily than when they are brunettes. You can feel it, it’s palpable.

Tired of being a sexual object in the workplace, accomplished CEO Eileen Carey says that she made the decision to dye her blonde hair darker to fend off unwanted sexual attention, to be taken more seriously, allowing her to be perceived as the strong business leader that she is.

She is not alone. This ‘going brunette to escape the blonde stereotype’ trend is echoed in a qualitative study of the challenges facing female undergraduate engineering students. One student refused to return to blonde hair from fear of negative treatment from her male peers:

I don’t want to go back to being a blonde because I feel like I’m getting enough grief as it is as a woman. I feel like honestly, a woman with blonde hair, they just take you like a stereotypical Barbie. I feel like the brunette gives me a little more power. They [male peers] seem to take me more serious.

Question 2: Are Blondes harassed more by strangers? Initial sources say YES!

Empirical research exists on what makes blondes more attractive. For example, one study has shown that men (on average) judge women with blonde hair to be ‘significantly’ younger- and healthier-looking. Findings from other studies include blonde women being perceived as more popular and less intelligent (especially platinum blondes) than brunettes (i.e., the dumb blonde stereotype). But research asking if or why blonde women are sexually harassed, abused, or assaulted more is nearly nonexistent. At least for peer-reviewed research.

Although certainly not highly controlled experiments, some modern-day superwomen have come to science’s rescue with their own blonde Vs brunette experiments.

One such woman is Devin Lytle, a lifetime-long brunette, she dyed her hair platinum blonde to conduct her own set of social experiments. As generally echoed in more hardcore science, she was seen as more attractive, got more tinder swipes, and was viewed as sweeter and less uptight than her native brunette alter ego. Importantly, this seemed to come hand in hand with getting more catcalls on the street (three as a blonde and zero as a brunette, despite wearing the exact same outfit).

Hayley Quinn, another natural brunette, did three social experiments using a blonde wig (a chivalry test, a tinder test, and a street attractiveness test). She couldn’t even get started with street experiments without being approached as a blonde. Although there was no “catcalling experiment” per se, her personal experience was that:

I love being a brunette, it’s easier and nicer. But if you want to go blonde we can definitely say that blondes might not have more fun, but they definitely get noticed more, definitely get approached more, and definitely get judged more.

Some very early research from the 1980s supports our DIY scientists, concluding that objectified women—and by extension, blondes in particular—are subject to more sexual harassment, sexual coercion, and unwanted sexual attention in public spaces by strangers. Today, in research settings, the tendency towards female harassment has been shown to intensify simply by showing men videos that objectify women—which is not rare for blondes in popular media.

Question 3: Does the objectification and dehumanization of blondes increase risk of sexual assault? It does for objectified women generally, why not blondes!?

Although context is always king, it’s safe to say that the blonde woman stereotype is THE most sexually objectifying and therefore most dehumanizing of all the hair color stereotypes. But is this dehumanization a prelude to violence and increased risk of sexual assault?

Research undoubtedly shows that dehumanization as a consequence of sexual objectification has dire consequences. This is pretty evident in research on rape perceptions, where sexual objectification increases victim blaming and diminishes rapist blame in cases of stranger rape. Just like a torturous death of an animal can be seen as less torturous if the animal is considered to be for food, the sexual assault of a woman is seen as less of an assault if the woman is considered to be for sex—like blondes—making them more vulnerable to violence.

Research holds that men with hostile or aggressive views toward women are more likely to objectify. In reverse, if a man tends to view women more like animals or objects they are more likely to be sexually aggressive towards women. The latest study showed that sexual objectification increases physical aggression toward women without provocation (i.e., even if there is no negative behaviour that could provoke aggression, if you’re seen as a sex object, aggression towards you is generally higher). It doesn’t look good for blondes.

Although currently there is no direct research exploring causal relationships between women’s hair color, associated stereotypes, and rates of harassment or assault, connecting the dots between the early evidence makes it clear we would be “very blonde” not to do so.

What I say…

For me, I LOVE my new hair, I do look younger and more healthy—when you are dealing with health problems this is priceless! Although I am understandably annoyed by this extra unwanted attention, perhaps naively, having always consider myself a tough woman that has fought off men, saving both myself and others from assault, I am not (and refuse to be) more scared because of my change in hair color. Naive or not, I cannot help but worry for women who may not have the devictimizing confidence I carry like a weapon or that fear they can’t defend themselves. Women having to dye their hair darker to feel safer around strangers is not ok.

I truly didn’t expect that going blonde would instil a strong desire to break a potentially dangerous stereotype. Although the interplay between the media misrepresentation of blondes and evolutionary engrained perceptions of fertility and youth likely drive the painting of all blonde haired women with the same sexually objectifying and dehumanizing dye brush, we as women still have the means to take some of that power back. And I plan to do just that.

When Is It Reasonable to Kill?

Again in 2015 (keep in mind when there was a time earlier than world pandemics?), a washed out {photograph} of a costume ignited a viral firestorm.

Unique picture of the costume

Supply: Wikipedia

Some noticed a white and gold costume, whereas others noticed black and blue. Greater than 10 million Tweets referenced the costume as debates over its true colours raged inside social circles. Admittedly, even my very own spouse and I noticed the costume in a different way. I noticed white and gold, however she noticed black and blue. I used to be incredulous at listening to that she perceived the costume in such a method. I had simply assumed that the “black and blue” crowd was comprised of deranged Web folks. However my very own spouse?! To me, the costume was so clearly white and gold. I couldn’t see anything.

And but, as per common, my spouse was in the end appropriate. The true colours of the costume had been finally revealed in a subsequent picture (with much less ambiguous lighting). A lot to my chagrin, it actually was black and blue.

“The costume” thus presents a stark reminder that two human beings can view the very same stimuli with two very totally different views. One tried-and-true technique for influencing human notion is the realm of psychological priming. Briefly, priming is a way through which the introduction of 1 stimulus influences how folks reply to a subsequent stimulus. Priming works by activating an affiliation or illustration in memory prior to a different stimulus being launched. This phenomenon can happen absent acutely aware consciousness, and but it could possibly have a unprecedented impact on our notion.

For instance, in a single seminal 2004 study, members had been subconsciously primed with sure visuals previous to viewing an picture of gun that originally appeared very degraded, however regularly turned extra clear. Members primed with photographs of African American faces had been capable of extra rapidly determine the picture of a gun in comparison with people primed with different visuals.

At present, america exists in a state of hyper-polarization. Whether or not fueled by a visceral hatred for the present Presidential administration, or fairly a deep-seated fear that progressive insurance policies are corrupting the nation, a big contingent of our society is already primed to view stimuli in a method that accords with their preconceived notions. The phenomenon of confirmation bias additionally influences people to view sure stimuli in methods that match inside their present worldview. 

Just lately, video captured 17 year-old Kyle Rittenhouse as he shot and killed two people in Kenosha, Wisconsin throughout a protest (or riot relying in your notion!). The general public response to the video footage fell into two polar reverse camps. On the one hand, some people vilified Rittenhouse as a murderous terrorist. Certainly, he has now been charged with first diploma homicide for each people he killed. However however, many championed him as a hero, justifiably defending himself from a violent mob. In actual fact, almost $400,000.00 has been donated to Rittenhouse’s authorized protection fund on the time of this writing.

The Rittenhouse case is actually not the primary time that video footage has elicited extensively discordant perceptions. For instance, the video of Ahmaud Arbury’s killing that acquired nationwide attention was really launched by a prison protection lawyer that had consulted with the shooters. Satirically, this lawyer launched the video as a result of he believed it clearly exonerated the shooters. Because it turned out, many within the public view issues effectively… fairly in a different way.

How Discordant Perceptions Have an effect on Claims of Self-Protection

Discordant perceptions in response to the identical stimuli current an fascinating authorized dilemma. Within the authorized world, there’s a “affordable particular person” normal upon which numerous legal guidelines rely. The affordable particular person is a hypothetical particular person in society who workout routines common care, ability, and judgment in conduct and who serves as a comparative normal for figuring out legal responsibility.

Gavel and authorized texts

Supply: succo/Pixabay

Claims of self-defense hinge on the affordable particular person normal. Usually talking, self-defense is simply permitted if the consumer of pressure has a affordable perception that pressure was mandatory to stop hurt. In the case of lethal defensive pressure, the consumer of pressure should have a affordable perception that there’s an imminent risk of nice bodily hurt or loss of life.

Many may discover the affordable particular person normal regarding given its inherent subjectivity. However the truth is that the legislation usually exists in shades of “gray.” In actual fact, this avoidance of black-and-white regulation is usually by design. Seldom do human actions fall neatly inside inflexible and formulaic parameters. Provided that we’re not robots, human conduct is finest interpreted via nuance and context. In principle, the jury exists is to overview the totality of details in a trial and act as the ultimate assessor of “reasonableness.” In any case, a jury is meant to be a cross-section of the neighborhood chosen at random. Who higher to determine what is cheap than a gaggle of supposedly affordable folks?

Whereas the aim of the jury could be sound, in observe the system can result in nice controversy. For instance, via a course of known as voir dire, attorneys on each side are capable of choose the precise jury from the pool of potential jurors. These potential jurors are put in entrance of the attorneys and requested about their backgrounds, potential biases, and any earlier information in regards to the details of the case. The questions attorneys can ask are restricted in scope, however a tactful lawyer will use their inquiries to uncover traits or experiences to recommend that the possible juror may favor their facet of the case. Attorneys can dismiss jurors they don’t like both “for trigger” (for instance, a potential juror is biased as a result of they’re a police officer in a case about police brutality) or by way of a “peremptory problem.” Utilizing a peremptory problem, the lawyer can dismiss a potential juror for actually no purpose in any respect. What number of peremptory challenges a lawyer can use relies on every state’s legal guidelines.  

Whereas voir dire applies to each side of the case, and thus makes an attempt to strike a stability, the truth is that juries usually find yourself specifically chosen to favor one occasion over the opposite. Generally, tactful attorneys are capable of change all the location (or “venue”) of a trial, such that all the pool of potential jurors is extra favorable to their consumer. Such was the case within the Rodney King trial, which was moved to Simi Valley – a notoriously conservative and pro-law enforcement suburb outdoors of Los Angeles (which, oddly sufficient, additionally occurs to be my hometown.) Regardless of the egregious video footage of Mr. King’s beating by the hands of police, the Simi Valley jury acquitted the officers. 

As our nation grows increasingly divisive, and the general public grows more and more primed to understand stimuli in ways in which reinforce one’s worldview, the idea of the “affordable particular person” begins to lose which means. What does “affordable” actually imply if it relies on the already-biased eye of the perceiver?  Put extra clearly: if Rittenhouse is ready to be judged by a jury of conservatives, odds are good that he will probably be acquitted of homicide. On the contrary, ought to a panel of progressives determine his destiny, he would extra possible be discovered responsible and face life imprisonment.

Does such a disparate end result actually comport with the notion of equal justice?

ASTRAEA. we are dust and shadows

Sendo portadora de um arco e tendo preferência pelo uso dos poderes como defesa, Alina optou por uma espada curta como arma recebida. Forjada em ferro estígio, a lâmina de aproximadamente 50 centímetros possui um brilho próprio, lembrando o próprio céu estrelado, provenientes da pedra estrela e granada negra misturadas em sua forja. Seu cabo possui cerca de treze centímetros e possui diversas figuras atrelas a simbologia da Deusa da Noite. Devido a sua relutância em emprestar suas coisas, o cabo foi moldado para encaixar-se perfeitamente apenas em suas mãos, trazendo dificuldade para qualquer outra pessoa que tente manusea-la. Diferentemente da lâmina, a parte do cabo recebeu um tratamento diferente, o tornando um pouco mais claro do que a lâmina. Durante os combates, Alina preza por sua rapidez e precisão ao invés da força bruta, por isso a espada, ainda que seja rígida, não é pesada, o que facilita até mesmo seu lançamento caso seja necessário. Quando não está ativada, Astraea se torna um anel fino, sustentado por duas pequenas luas em suas laterais e três pontos luminosos em cima e em baixo da jóia central. Assim que recebida, Astrae ocupou um lugar de destaque entre os anéis favoritos de Alina.

sims OTP ask game: 5, 12, 13, 16 and maybe 24 if you want to. Jakob and Finn (but you can do more couples also).

I will answer for Jake and Finn :)

5) Who screams and who kills the spider?

I'd be lying if I said anything other than Finn screaming and Jakob taking care of the spider.

12) Who says party rockers and who says party rock is?

I bet you anything this is a real fight they had, with Finn on the side of "party rock is" and Jakob just adding fuel to the fire because it's hilarious.

13) What's their age and height difference?

By the time Jakob moved to Windenburg, he was 24 and Finn was 22. Jakob is 177cm and Finn is 167cm which might seem weird bc some poses I've used for him made him look taller. but I know different.

24) What's their song?

funny to ask this because I never really pick thematic songs for my couples BUT, At My Worst by Pink Sweat$ came on while I was shooting their wedding and it fit really well! also I cried but ya know that's neither here nor there

23 mei

23 Mei is het zover. Dan kunnen we de Nederlandse leden van het Europese Parlement kiezen. Deze verkiezingen bestaan rechtstreeks sinds 1979 toen de opkomst nog  58,1% was. Na een dieptepunt in 1999 met een opkomst van 30% was de opkomst in 2014 37,3%. En nu?

Verreweg de meeste mensen gaan niet stemmen. De gemiddelde opkomst in alle 28 EUlanden was 42,6%. De Belgen gaan massaal stemmen:89,6%. In Belgie bestaat opkomst- en kiesplicht. In totaal kunnen circa 375 miljoen Europeanen gaan stemmen, méér dan in Amerika. Dat doen circa 160 miljoen mensen.

Er is wat te kiezen. Komt er méér verbinding tussen de EUlanden of minder. Hoe gaat het met migratie? Wat gaat de EU aan het klimaatvraagstuk doen? Wat worden de gevolgen van een Brexit of komt het daar op het nippertje toch niet van? Een stem kan druk uitoefenen op de nieuwe Europese Commissie die uiteindelijk door de regeringsleiders wordt benoemd. In Groot-Brittannië verloren links en rechts sterk bij de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen en kwamen kleinere nieuwere partijen op. Zal dat in de EU ook gebeuren?

Nederland heeft een sterke positie in de EU. Ondanks de kritiek van PVV, FVD en SP is de sympathie voor de EU hier groot. Een nieuw rapport van Eurobarometer toont dat 86% van de Nederlanders bij een referendum vóór blijven in de EU zou stemmen. Maar FVD en PVV, harde Nexit-partijen, hebben volgens Peilingwijzer wel 24% van het Nederlandse electoraat. Veel Nederlanders maken zich niet druk over Europese verkiezingen. Zes van de tien weten niet wie in hun partij de kar trekt voor de Europese verkiezingen. Frans Timmermans is voor de PvdA wel een opvallende kandidaat geworden.

We hebben in ieder geval een redelijk vitale democratie opgebouwd in Europa, ook al mankeert er nog heel veel aan. Dat was 79 jaar geleden toen WOII uitbrak wel anders. Wetenschappelijk onderzoek lijkt aan te tonen dat democratie goed is voor de economie.  De Turks-Amerikaanse econoom Daron Acemoglu (MIT) argumenteerde in zijn boek Why NNations Fall al dat democratie op lange termijn leidt tot 20% meer groei. Maar econoom Markus Eberhardt van de Universiteit van Nottingham snoept daar de helft van af. Hij analyseert een positief langetermijneffect van 10%.

Een centraal thema in de EU is hoe die democratische welvaartsgroei te verdelen. Ofwel hoe democratisch tot een transferunie te komen. De Hanzegroep binnen de EU (Nederland, Denemarken, Finland, Ierland, Letland, Litouwen en Zweden) denkt daar anders over dan de Frans-Duitse as. Minister Wopke Hoekstra leek aanvankelijk de extra eurozone belastingen die de Franse president Macron voorstelt om de eurozone sneller te integreren niet te steunen, maar recent toonde hij zich constructiever.

Van de zomer, als de nieuwe Commissie er is, wordt een nieuwe meerjarenbegroting in elkaar getimmerd en daar kan een fonds uitgroeien van wel €50 miljard om zwakke landen zo nodig te ondersteunen. Zo komt de EU toch weer een stapje verder, ook al willen Baudet en Wilders dat niet.

Een mooie Bevrijdingsdag gewenst vandaag, en goede zaken volgende week, dankzij ons democratische dividend.

Roger Bushell - "The Big X" - Histórias da Segunda Guerra Mundial 

Roger Bushell – The Big X

O Líder de Esquadrão Roger Joyce Bushell RAF (30 de agosto de 1910 - 29 de março de 1944) foi um aviador militar britânico nascido na África do Sul. Ele é mais conhecido como o mentor do "Great Escape" de Stalag Luft III em 1944, mas foi um dos homens recapturados e posteriormente assassinados pela Gestapo.

Nascimento e Início da Vida Bushell nasceu em Springs, Transvaal, África do Sul, em 30 de agosto de 1910, filho de pais ingleses, Benjamin Daniel e Dorothy Wingate Bushell. Seu pai, um engenheiro de minas, havia emigrado para o país da Grã-Bretanha e usou sua riqueza para garantir que Roger recebesse uma educação de primeira classe. Ele estudou primeiro em Joanesburgo, em seguida, com 14 anos foi para o Wellington College, em Berkshire, Inglaterra. Em 1929, Bushell foi então para Pembroke College, Cambridge, para estudar Direito. Preocupado em buscar interesses não acadêmicos desde cedo, Bushell se destacou no rugby e cricket e esquiou em Cambridge em corridas entre 1930 e 1932, capitaneando a equipe em 1931. Em cartas particulares, sua mãe o descreve como corajoso e "líder". Estas foram duas qualidades que se destacaram desde tenra idade. Esquiar Uma das paixões e talentos de Bushell era o esqui: no início da década de 1930, ele foi declarado o britânico mais rápido na categoria masculina de descida. Após a primeira guerra, ele participou de uma corrida em homenagem a ele em St. Moritz, na Suíça, em memória de seus esforços para organizar as reuniões de esqui suíço inglesa. Ele também venceu o evento slalom da corrida anual de esqui Oxford-Cambridge em 1931. Em um evento de esqui no Canadá, Bushell sofreu um acidente e por pouco não perdeu seu olho esquerdo, deixando-o com um corte no canto do mesmo. Embora ele tenha se recuperado desse acidente, ele ainda tinha uma parte escura no olho esquerdo, como resultado da cicatrização de seus pontos. Bushell tornou-se fluente em francês e alemão, com um bom sotaque, que se tornou extremamente útil durante seu tempo como prisioneiro de guerra.

Carreira RAF e Jurídica Apesar de suas perspectivas esportivas, um dos principais desejos de Bushell era voar. Em 1932, ele se juntou à Força Aérea Auxiliar do Esquadrão 601 (AAF), que era frequentemente chamada de "A milícia dos milionários" por causa do número de jovens ricos que pagavam apenas para aprender a voar durante os dias de treinamento (muitas vezes nos fins de semana). Ele foi comissionado em 10 de agosto de 1932 e promovido a oficial voador em 10 de fevereiro de 1934 e tenente de voo em 20 de julho de 1936. Embora Bushell estivesse buscando uma carreira na RAF, ele não foi prejudicado em suas tentativas de se tornar um advogado da Lincolns Inn, em Londres. Desde o início de sua carreira jurídica, muitos comentaram sua habilidade como advogado, particularmente na defesa criminal. Depois de um tempo, Bushell foi nomeado para casos militares no processo de pessoal da RAF acusado de várias ofensas. Em outubro de 1939, atuando como assistente de Sir Patrick Hastings, ele defendeu com sucesso dois pilotos da RAF, John Freeborn e Paddy Byrne, no tribunal marcial após o incidente de fogo amigo conhecido como a Batalha de Barking Creek. Byrne mais tarde seria encarcerado com Bushell em Stalag Luft III.  

Carreira Militar Regular Bushell recebeu o comando do Esquadrão 92 em outubro de 1939. Sua promoção ao líder do esquadrão foi confirmada em 1º de janeiro de 1940. Durante o primeiro compromisso do esquadrão com aeronaves inimigas em 23 de maio de 1940, enquanto em uma patrulha perto de Calais, para ajudar com a evacuação de Dunquerque, à ele foram creditados danos a dois caças Messerschmitt Bf 110 de ZG 26 antes de ser derrubado, provavelmente pelo futuro Ás Alemão Oberleutnant Günther Specht. Ele acertou seu Spitfire no campo ocupado pelos alemães e foi capturado antes que ele tivesse a chance de se esconder.

Tornou-se prisioneiro de guerra e foi enviado para o campo de trânsito de Dulag, perto de Frankfurt, junto com todas as outras tripulações capturadas.

Prisioneiro de Guerra Na chegada a Stalag Luft III ele foi feito parte da equipe permanente britânica sob o alto oficial britânico Wing Commander Harry Day. O dever da equipe permanente era ajudar a tripulação aliada recém capturada a se ajustar à vida como prisioneira de guerra.

Da esquerda Líder do esquadrão Roger Bushell, Leutnant Eberhardt (segurança alemã) e Paddy Byrne (companheiro prisioneiro de guerra)

A fuga, que era considerada um dever de todos os prisioneiros de guerra do posto de oficiais, nunca esteve longe de sua mente e, felizmente, ele estava em boa companhia com o piloto da Day and Fleet Air Arm, Jimmy Buckley. Day colocou Buckley encarregado das operações de fuga, com Bushell como seu vice. Os três formaram o comitê de fuga responsável por todas as tentativas de fuga. Primeira Fuga A equipe permanente do campo iniciou vários túneis de fuga, um dos quais foi concluído em maio de 1941. Bushell recebeu um lugar no túnel, mas optou por fugir no mesmo dia cortando o arame que cercava um pequeno parque nos terrenos do acampamento. Sua decisão de não usar o túnel permitiu que ele se afastasse mais cedo e pegasse um determinado trem. A data exata da fuga não é conhecida, mas acredita-se que tenha ocorrido em junho de 1941. Bushell se escondeu em um abrigo de cabras nos terrenos do acampamento e, logo que ficou escuro o suficiente, ele se arrastou até o arame e conseguiu escapar. Ele foi recapturado na fronteira suíça, a apenas algumas centenas de metros da liberdade, por um guarda de fronteira alemão. Ele foi bem tratado e voltou para Dulag Luft antes de ser transferido para Stalag Luft I com todos os 17 outros que haviam escapado pelo túnel (incluindo Day e Buckley). Ele ficou em Stalag Luft I por apenas um curto período antes de ser transferido para o Oflag X-C em Lübeck. Neste campo ele participou da construção de outro túnel, mas este foi abandonado inacabado quando o acampamento foi evacuado.

Segunda Fuga Todos os prisioneiros de guerra britânicos e da Commonwealth foram retirados do campo em 8 de outubro de 1941 e transferidos para Oflag VI-B em Warburg. Durante a noite de 8/9 de outubro de 1941, o trem parou brevemente em Hannover, onde Bushell e o oficial-piloto tchecoslovaco Jaroslav Zafouk saltaram do trem e escaparam, despercebidos na época pelos guardas alemães. Mais cedo na jornada, seis outros oficiais haviam escapado pulando do trem enquanto ele se movia lentamente; um foi imediatamente recapturado e um oficial foi morto quando caiu sob as rodas. Bushell e Zafouk chegaram a Praga na Checoslováquia ocupada. Usando os contatos de Zafouk, eles fizeram contato com o movimento de resistência clandestino. Eles ficaram em “casas seguras”, enquanto os preparativos para a jornada de partida estavam sendo feitos. No entanto, a sorte não estava com eles, e após o assassinato de Reinhard Heydrich em maio de 1942, os alemães lançaram uma caçada massiva pelos assassinos; durante essa caçada, Bushell e Zafouk foram presos. Ambos foram interrogados pela Gestapo e tratados com muita grosseria. Bushell foi finalmente enviado para Stalag Luft III em Sagan, chegando lá em outubro de 1942. Zafouk foi enviado para Oflag IV-C em Colditz. Ele assumiu o controle da organização de fuga de Jimmy Buckley, que estava sendo transferido para outro campo. Ele ficou conhecido como "Big X" (Grande Chefe do Comitê de Fuga do Acampamento) e foi o cérebro por trás das fugas em massa que ocorreram no campo. Durante sua permanência na Gestapo, ele havia testemunhado o terror e o sofrimento de muitos oficiais nas mãos dos nazistas e desenvolveu um intenso ódio por eles. Seu plano era atacar os alemães da melhor maneira possível organizando massacres em massa dos campos de prisioneiros em que ele estava. Um deles ficou conhecido como "Great Escape" (Grande Fuga) que planejava permitir que 200 homens escapassem única noite. A Grande Fuga Na primavera de 1943, Bushell planejou uma trama para uma grande fuga do campo. Estando no complexo ao norte, onde pilotos britânicos estavam alojados, Bushell, como comandante do comitê de fuga, canalizou o esforço para investigar as fraquezas e procurar oportunidades. Convocou uma reunião do comitê de fuga no campo e não apenas chocou os presentes com seu escopo, mas injetou em cada homem uma determinação apaixonada de colocar todas as energias na fuga. Ele declarou: "Todos aqui nesta sala estão vivendo em tempo emprestado. Por direito, todos nós deveríamos estar mortos! A única razão pela qual Deus nos permitiu essa ração extra de vida é para que possamos tornar a vida um inferno para os hunos” Em North Compound nós estamos concentrando nossos esforços em completar e escapar através de um túnel mestre. Não são permitidos túneis para grupos particulares. Três túneis sangrentos e profundos serão cavados - Tom, Dick e Harry. Um terá sucesso! A escavação simultânea desses túneis se tornaria uma vantagem pois se qualquer um deles fosse descoberto pelos alemães, os guardas dificilmente imaginariam que outros dois pudessem estar bem adiantados. O aspecto mais radical do plano não era apenas a escala da construção, mas também o grande número de homens que Bushell pretendia passar por esses túneis. Tentativas anteriores envolveram a fuga de cerca de uma dúzia ou vinte homens, mas Bushell estava propondo superar os 200, todos vestindo roupas civis e possuindo uma gama completa de papéis forjados e equipamento de fuga. Foi um empreendimento sem precedentes e exigiria uma organização inigualável. Como mentor da Grande Fuga, Bushell herdou o codinome de "Big X". O túnel "Tom" começou em um canto escuro de um corredor em um dos edifícios. A entrada de "Harry" estava escondida debaixo de um fogão. A entrada para "Dick" tinha uma entrada escondida em um poço de drenagem. Mais de 600 prisioneiros estavam envolvidos em sua construção. “Tom” foi descoberto em agosto de 1943, quando estava em fase de conclusão. Bushell também organizou outra fuga em massa, que ocorreu em 12 de junho de 1943. Isso ficou conhecido como a Quebra de Desapontamento, quando 26 oficiais escaparam deixando o acampamento sob escolta com dois guardas falsos (prisioneiros de guerra disfarçados de guardas) supostamente para ir aos chuveiros no composto vizinho. Todos, exceto dois, foram recapturados e devolvidos ao campo, com os dois policiais restantes sendo enviados para o Oflag IV-C em Colditz por tentarem roubar uma aeronave. Após a descoberta de “Tom”, a construção de “Harry” foi interrompida. mas recomeçou em janeiro de 1944. Na noite de 24 de março, depois de meses de preparação, 200 oficiais se prepararam para fugir. Mas as coisas não correram como planejado, com apenas 76 prisioneiros conseguindo se livrar do campo. Roger e seu parceiro Bernard Scheidhauer, foram os primeiros a deixar o túnel, embarcaram com sucesso em um trem na estação ferroviária de Sagan. Eles foram pegos no dia seguinte na estação ferroviária de Saarbrücken, esperando por um trem para a Alsácia, que havia sido anexado da França pela Alemanha em 1871, mas que havia sido devolvido à França após a Primeira Guerra Mundial. Bushell e Scheidhauer foram assassinados três dias depois por membros da Gestapo, incluindo Emil Schulz, ajudado por outros. Isso foi uma violação da Convenção de Genebra e, portanto, constituindo-se num crime de guerra. Os perpetradores foram posteriormente julgados e executados pelos Aliados. Cinquenta dos 76 fugitivos foram mortos nos assassinatos de Stalag Luft III sob as ordens pessoais de Adolf Hitler. Roger Bushell é enterrado no Cemitério da Antiga Guarnição de Poznan (Coll. Grave 9. A.) em Poznań, Polônia.

Lápide de R.J.Bushell em Poznań, Polônia Bushell foi postumamente mencionado em despachos em 8 de junho de 1944 por seus serviços como prisioneiro de guerra. Este prêmio foi gravado na London Gazette de 13 de junho de 1946.

Memoriais Bushell Green, em Bushey, é nomeado em sua homenagem, uma das ruas da área que leva o nome dos pilotos da Batalha da Grã-Bretanha. O nome de Bushell também aparece no memorial de guerra em Hermanus, na África do Sul, onde seus pais passaram seus últimos anos e onde foram enterrados. Em 2017, um memorial foi erguido perto do local de seu assassinato, onde hoje é a Base Aérea de Ramstein.

Legado Bushell foi a base para a personagem "Roger Bartlett" no filme “The Great Escape (1963)” interpretado pelo ator Richard Attenborough.

Bushell também foi interpretado por Ian McShane no filme para TV “The Great Escape II: The Untold Story (1988)” -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- Fonte: - Wikipedia - https://www.military-history.org/articles/great-escapes-roger-bushell.htm - Anotações e Pesquisas do Autor do Blog No próximo post: The Great Escape no Cinema (1963)

So what do we know about season 5 so far?

The season is set over a course of three days, based on the riot (Confirmed)

Episode one is called ‘Riot FOMO’ (On the cast call sheet)

Someone shoots, more than once, whether that’s Daya or a correctional officer, someone shoots (Also on the cast call sheet for episode one ‘Piper and Alex hear gunshots’)

Laura Prepon is directing episode ten (Confirmed)

A young Red has been cast on IMDB (For episode nine)

There will be a Poussay memorial (Taryn Manning posted a photo with a poster behind her)

Brad William Henke gave hints that we’ll get Piscatella’s backstory late in the season (Rumor)

Episode twelve is called ‘Tattoo You’ (A photo of the front page of the script was posted by Taryn)

People have been cast to play doctors, nurses and SWAT team for episode thirteen (I haven’t checked on this one like on IMDB or anything, so I don’t know)

While the vast majority of the cast were wrapped for season 5, the next day Lauren Morelli posted a photo on Instagram quoting “Last shot of S5, no YOU’RE crying” 

An extra posted a status on Facebook regarding a drastic change of hairstyle quoting “especially after how the season 5 finalie went down”

Edit: more info from @wildebeesttheatre

Also includes a young Dmitri in episode 9. And two other Russian sounding names. Perhaps an old flame of Red’s.

Healy will be appearing in Season 5, Michael Harney confirmed it.

Laura Prepon is pregnant in real life, this might indicate that Alex will not be in the start of Season 6 (maternity leave?)

Edit: I also feel like I should talk about casting, last night I looked through all the episodes on IMDB, sometimes looking at the cast can give hinters/create more questions (little side note, Natasha nor Laura are listed for any of the episodes, but I’m not worried about that.) Also note that a lot of these are nitpicky, but I feel like it’s still interesting to point out new cast members, especially if they’re significant/known to characters.

Episode 1 - Nothing significant about the casting of this episode, apart from Ilyana Eberhardt as stunt double for Maritzia, Stefanie Flores as a stunt double for Flaca, Dejay Roestenberg as a stunt double for Brandy

Episode 2 - David Bodenschatz is cast as CO James Shulock, Martino Caputo is cast as a local cop (he was in The Animals in season 4 and will also be in episode 12, Tattoo You, of season 5), Skylar Dunn is cast as Susan, Hunter Emery is cast as CO Hopper (he is in it to episode 9), Elodie Flanagan as a girl scout and finally Danny Wolohan as Lloyd Berlin, 

Episode 3 - Dean Ciallella is cast as a pedestrian with a newspaper, Joanne Lamstein as a stunt double for Judy King (also stunts for episode 4) 

Episode 4 - Rebecca Benhayon as Ashley (also in episode 5), Michael Cuomo as Andres, Sara Harman as Corinne, Shirley Roeca as Vasquez, Stephanie Vovou as a stunt double for Maria

Episode 5 - Kat Harley as CERT member #4 (in it to episode 12, CERT stands for ‘computer emergency response team’, so that’s interesting…), Mary Kate Malat as a Prep School Student, Booch O'Connell as a Thurston Academy Student (Google states that it’s a Martial Arts school, but it could just be a fictional school), Anthony Caravana as Thurston Academy Headmaster, Blanchard Ryan as a reporter (also in episode 12), Tequilla Whitfield as Tanisa and Chantelle Antoinette as wobble dancer #8

Episode 6 - Thea McCartan as Susan Logan, Frank Ridley as a drunk guy and Morgan Wolk as Kristen Master

Episode 7 - Nothing significant apart from 7 stunt doubles, for which characters are unlisted 

Episode 8 - Danny Ramirez as Paolo (Paolo may be Nicky’s mum’s boyfriend, whom she mentioned in the pilot episode, although the actor does look to be in his 20s while Nicky’s mum is like 50+, so yeah, probably not that Paolo…), Chelsey Cary as a stunt double for Leanne, Stefanie Flores as a stunt double for Dwights and Alexa Marcigliano as a stunt double for Doggett (also in episode 13)

Episode 9 - Gabriel Furman cast as a young Dimitri, Zack Gafin as Max, Miguel Izaguirre as Diablo (looks like we’ll be seeing more of Blanca’s boyfriend/ex), Xenia Leblanc as young Red, Pavel Shatu as Kostya, Samantha Lee Johnson as someone’s family member,Chad Knorr as a stunt double for Piscatella (also in episode 10 and 11) andJoanne Lamstein as a stunt double for Red (also in episode 10 and 11)

Episode 10 - Allegra Edwards as Anchor and Stephanie Vovou as a stunt double for Linda (also in episode 12)

Episode 11 - Gregory O Nicolas as Miguel, Ian Paola asYadriel (looks like we’ll be seeing more of Maria’s ex), Jesse Ray Sheps as David andMyra ‘Dakota’ Bown as a stunt double for Norma
