Syria. W 1999 roku wraz z @bedur wykonaliśmy dobrego tripa. Wsiedliśmy w pociąg na stacji Kłodzko Miasto. Jaraliśmy się Indiana Jonesem i Kapuścińskim wtedy pewnie przeokrutnie, a także Bobem Marleyem. Wnioskuję tak z zapisków, które miałem schowane na serwerze, zatytułowanych "Wyprawa do Syrii". Pojechaliśmy pociągiem przez Czechy, Słowację, Węgry do Rumunii. W Bukareszcie wsiedliśmy w pociąg do Stambułu. "Granica turecka. Wpadł Bułgar i na widok naszych syryjskich wiz w paszportach zamarł i rzekł, że w krajach arabskich może być źle, bo wczoraj umarł król Jordanii Hussain. Ciekawe co dalej? Chwilunie później wparował Turek z torbą przerzuconą przez ramię. Okazało się , że zawartość torby żyje, a nawet szczeka. Po prostu przemyt żywego towaru. Znerwicowany Turek wpadł jeszcze raz i zabrał torbę z psem (psami?). 10 minut później pojawił się po raz kolejny i umieścił torbę za siedzeniem. Oblał nas bułgarskimi perfumami i rzekł "Yo problem" uśmiechnął się złotozębnie i się ulotnił." Tam zapiski się urywają i wiem, że potem kupiliśmy miejscówki w autobusie do Damaszku i jechaliśmy z 24 godziny. A granica wyglądała tak samo jak w serialu "Kalifat". W 1999 w Syrii były "wybory" kiedy znów "wybrano" starego Assada - okulista Baszszar już wtedy był w Syrii, ściągnięty w 1994 po śmierci jego brata, który miał być następcą Hafiza. Do Jordanii wjechać się nie dało więc postanowiliśmy spędzić czas w Syrii. Ludzie byli przewspaniali, zapraszali do domów, częstowali zajebistym jedzeniem. Zobaczyliśmy zamki krzyżowców, poszwendaliśmy się po Damaszku, siedzieliśmy na pustyni w Palmirze. Byliśmy w Allepo i w Maalouli. Pojechaliśmy nawet do Deir ez-Zor niedaleko granicy z Irakiem. To był fantastyczny wyjazd. Zabrałem wtedy w podróż swój drugi "prawdziwy" aparat - prezent od rodziców (dziękuję!) canon Eos 50. I dziś wygrzebałem parę skanów z tego aparatu. Powrót z Syrii był równie przygodowy co sama Syria. Niestety skończyły mi się negatywy i nie mam żadnych zdjęć. Pojechaliśmy autobusem do Istambułu, tam z rumuńskimi handlarzami 40 godzin do Bukuresztu. Potem pociągami do Budapesztu i autostopem do Kłodzka. Chyba tak to właśnie było - co nie @bedur ? #syria #damascus https://www.instagram.com/p/B_korBnnNO5/?igshid=1f87d7cfp4h9s

Creating impeccable barbecue involves more than culinary intuition— it requires rigorous science and precise engineering, according to @desoracooks, a startup founded by #HarvardSEAS alumni. Launched in 2016 by engineering sciences concentrators Michel Maalouly, S.B. ’16, Yinka Ogunbiyi, S.B. ’16, and Kit Parker, Tarr Family Professor of Bioengineering and Applied Physics, Desora creates innovative grilling products designed to perfect the taste and texture of food, while simplifying the cooking process. In partnership with @kamadojoe, they developed three barbecue grills with the SlōRoller, a grill insert to replicate the cooking process of a hyperbolic-shaped smoker, and also built a smart barbecue grill controller and smartphone app that precisely controls the cooking temperature. The company also recently expanded into the indoor grilling market by acquiring Cinder, a smart counter-top grill that uses advanced temperature sensing algorithms and patented technology to cook food with one-degree precision. “We’ve approached barbecue with heavy scientific rigor,” said Maalouly. “I think this is the first time anyone has designed a barbecue using computer simulations to make sure you have even heat and increased smoke exposure. It is that exact ethos that we took from our education at Harvard, and then applied it to this company.”⠀ #Harvard #Alumni #HarvardAlumni #startup #entrepreneurship #engineering #barbecue #BBQ #cooking https://www.instagram.com/p/BxM8FI2Hnhk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1m9tbx6xxxeao

Middle Eastern protests: A tug of war over who has the longer breath

By James M. Dorsey

A podcast version of this story is available on Soundcloud, Itunes, Spotify, Stitcher, TuneIn, Spreaker, Pocket Casts, Tumblr, Podbean, Audecibel, Patreon and Castbox.

 Mass anti-government protests in several Arab countries are turning into competitions to determine who has the longer breath, the protesters or the government.

 In Algeria, Lebanon and Iraq, countries in which the leader was either forced to resign or has agreed to step down, authorities appear to be dragging their feet on handovers of power or agreed transitional power sharing arrangements in the hope that protesters, determined to hold on to their street power until a political transition process is firmly in place, either lose their momentum or are racked by internal differences.

 So far, protesters are holding their ground, having learnt the lesson that their achievements are likely to be rolled back if they vacate the street before having cemented an agreement on the rules of the transitional game and process.

 Algerians remain on the streets, seven months after President Abdelaziz Bouteflika was forced to step down, in demand of a complete change of the political system.

 Scores of recent arrests on charges that include “harming national unity” and “undermining the morale of the army” have failed to deter Algerians who refuse to accept the military’s proposed December 12 date for elections.

 Lebanon enters its second months of protests with the government going through the motions but ultimately failing to respond to demands for a technocratic government, a new non-sectarian electoral law and early elections.

 An effort to replace prime minister Saad Hariri with another member of the elite, Mohammad Safadi, a billionaire businessman and former finance minister, was rejected by the protesters.

 "We are staying here. We don't know how long - maybe one or two months or one or two years. Maybe it will take 10 years to get the state we are dreaming of, but everything starts with a first step." said filmmaker Perla Joe Maalouli.

Weeks after agreeing to resign in response to popular pressure, Iraqi prime minister Adil Abdul Mehdi appears to be increasingly firm in his saddle.

Much like what prompted US President George H.W.. Bush to first call in 1991 for a popular revolt against Saddam Hussein and then give the Iraqi strongman the tools to crush the uprising, Mr. Mehdi is holding on to power in the absence of a credible candidate acceptable to the political elite to replace him.

Mr. Mehdi’s position is strengthened by the fact that neither the United States nor Iran wants a power vacuum to emerge in Baghdad.

Backtracking on Mr. Mehdi’s resignation and refraining from appointing a prime minister who credibly holds out the promise of real change is likely to harden the battle lines between the protesters and the government.

The tugs of war highlight the pitfalls protesters and governments need to manoeuvre in what amounts to a complex game with governments seeking to pacify demonstrators by seemingly entertaining their demands yet plotting to maintain fundamental political structures that anti-government activists want to uproot.

The risk of a tug of war is that protests turn violent as happened in Hong Kong or in Lebanon where cars of parliamentarians were attacked as they drove this week towards the assembly.

Meeting protesters’ demands and aspirations that drive the demonstrations and figure across the Middle East and North Africa, irrespective of whether grievances have spilled into streets, is what makes economic and social reform tricky business for the region’s autocrats.

Its where what is needed for sustainable reforms bounces up against ever more repressive security states intent on exercising increasingly tight control.

Sustainable reform requires capable and effective institutions rather than bloated, bureaucratic job banks and decentralisation with greater authorities granted to municipalities and regions.

Altering social contracts by introducing or increasing taxes, reducing subsidies for basic goods and narrowing opportunities for government employment will have to be buffered by greater transparency that provides the public insight into how the government ensures that it benefits from the still evolving new social contract.  

To many protesters, Sudan has validated protesters’ resolve to retain street power until transitional arrangements are put in place.

It took five months after the toppling of president Omar al-Bashir and a short-lived security force crackdown in which some 100 people were killed before the military, the protesters and political groups agreed and put in place a transitional power-sharing process.

The process involved the creation of a sovereign council made up of civilians and military officers that is governing the country and managing its democratic transition.

Even so, transitional experiences have yet to prove their mettle. Protesters may have learnt lessons from the 2011 popular Arab revolts that toppled the leaders of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Yemen.

Yet, this time round, protesters lack the broad-based international empathy that 2011 uprisings enjoyed and are up against more than domestic forces backed by conservative Gulf states.

Powers like Russia and China make no bones about their rejection of protest as an expression of popular political will.

So has Iran that has much at stake in Iraq and Lebanon, countries where anti-sectarian sentiment is strong among protesters, even if the Islamic republic was born in one of the 20th century’s epic popular revolts and is confronting protests of its own against fuel price hikes.
