  1. Happy Independence Day, Eswatini 🇸🇿
    On 6 September, Eswatini’s history since independence has included constitutional change, the restoration of monarchical rule and continuing debates over political participation and civic freedoms.

    Independence remains a useful moment to reflect on sovereignty, democratic participation, human rights and the aspirations of the people of Eswatini. 🙏🏾

    On Ukraine's 35th #IndependenceDay, ground robotic complexes paraded down Kyiv's central street, interceptor drones and aircraft paraded Ukrainian skies and unmanned sea drones paraded Ukrainian waters!

    This looks beautiful but it's also an example of Ukraine's technology advances.

  5. "Ukraine declared its independence in 1991 and was promptly recognised by countries around the world.

    For more than a decade, Russia has tried to prove that independence can be reversed by force.

    Ukraine keeps proving otherwise 🇺🇦 "

  6. "For years, Kremlin officials have insisted Ukraine is an ‘artificial’ country, ‘controlled from abroad’, or ‘incapable of choosing its own future’.

    35 years after independence, Ukraine is still making that choice for itself.

    Perhaps that is precisely what makes its independence so difficult for the Kremlin to accept."

  8. Illia Ponomarenko: "What matters is that 35 years ago, on August 24, 1991, Ukraine did not simply declare its independence from the USSR and finally become a separate country.

    It restored its statehood and independence first proclaimed in 1917–1918 — and drowned in blood by Lenin’s Bolsheviks."

    Ukraine is not just a spot on the map. It is our home, our memory, our love, and our faith.
    Every stalk of wheat, every breath of wind, every native word — this is what gives us the strength to live and fight. May our blue sky become peaceful as soon as possible, and may peace and Victory reign in every home! 🌾💙💛

  12. My birthday was yesterday, hooray for India’s Independence Day and the peak summer holidays Feast of the Assumption in France and Italy.

    I have been in Sydney to see The Drover’s Wife at Sydney Opera House with a talk before the show by Leah Purcell. Big recommend, important story told well in a beautiful format. Even better when you get to see a good show with a great friend.

    Also got to catch buses, regional trains, suburban trains, and ferries.

    The harbour view was from my apartment window.

  13. My dear Students of India,

    I write to you on this Independence Day. My message is simple and direct.

    This is our 80th anniversary of India’s freedom [1]. Seventy nine years ago, on this day, our country stepped out of colonial rule. Those who came before us paid a heavy price for that freedom. Their struggle gives this day its weight. It also places a clear duty on every generation that follows.

    I pass on more than a date of freedom. I pass on the duty to turn formal freedom into something people live every day.

    Sacrifice and refusal once brought freedom. The work that remains needs effort from you. Choose truth instead of stories that make things easy. Choose real skill instead of empty show. Choose the lasting good of most people instead of short benefits for a few.

    History keeps every mark we leave. Every policy leaves a mark. Every silence leaves a mark. Every act of courage leaves a mark. Every act of convenience leaves a mark. These marks become the ground you will walk on.

    Independence is not only about celebration. It shows when you face your own record honestly. It shows when you change direction quietly, without making a show of it. It shows when you build institutions that last longer than any single government or generation.

    You have the power to shape what comes next. The work continues. The baton now rests in your hands.

    From one who belongs to the generation that came before.

  21. In honor of U.S. Independence Day, I decided to re-read the Declaration of Independence. This is well worth a read - these are powerful words that are as important and relevant now as when they were written 250 years ago. Here’s just a section of it; you can read the entire text at archives.gov/founding-docs/dec (and be sure to vote this Fall!).

  23. A BetTER Day

    Independence has its day,
    when o’er the skies fireworks display,
    and dependence, too, is good,
    as every tender spirit should

    learn the grace of being held,
    when pride is hushed, and fear is quelled.
    But methinks we need another name,
    a deeper word, a wider frame.

    It happens after we let one IN,
    past the surface, past the skin,
    past the guarded gates we keep,
    past the places where hurt runs deep.

    In the space before DEPEND,
    we see the other as vital friend,
    all as branches from one tree,
    as the grains of sand receive the sea.

    Then add three letters, soft but true,
    TER arrives and makes it new.
    Not just me and not just thee,
    but something born between the three.

    In-TER-dependence names the art
    of hand in hand and heart to heart,
    while I am I, and you are you,
    something sacred binds us too.

    Independence stands alone,
    dependence leans on flesh and bone,
    but interdependence humbly sings:
    we rise by sharing roots and wings.

  24. Retro Gaming Ads Blast – Part 43

    Welcome back readers, fellow geeks and electronic gaming fans!

    In this edition of the Retro Gaming Ads Blast (RGAB) series, we will take a look at another batch of retro gaming print ads from the 1980s to the 1990s.

    For the newcomers reading this, Retro Gaming Ads Blast (RGAB) looks back at the many print ads of games (console, arcade, computer and handheld) that were published in comic books, magazines, flyers, posters and newspapers long before smartphones, social media, the worldwide web and streaming became popular. To put things in perspective, people back in the 1980s to the 1990s were more trusting of print media for information and images about electronic games and related products.

    With those details laid down, here is the newest batch of retro gaming print ads for you to see and enjoy…

    1. Taito’s 4-in-1 Print Ad

    I remember seeing this ad in some comic books I read back in the 1980s.

    There is nothing like taking the clever approach of promoting multiple video games using only one single print ad in the size of a single page. Taito did exactly that in the 1980s when it promoted Elevator Action, The Legend of Kage, Arkanoid and Renegade for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) promising excitement as the mentioned games were making the jump from arcade to console. What is very notable in Taito’s single-page print ad was that it did not show any screenshots of the games. Instead, they used hand-drawn artwork to emphasize each game’s theme or setting, and leave it up to the viewers’ imagination as to how those games would look like on NES. This old ad is intriguing and amusing at the same time.  

    2. Chase H.Q. II: Special Criminal Investigation Print Ad

    Cars and high-speed action emphasized in this ad.

    Following the huge success of the original Chase H.Q. on both arcade and consoles in the late-1980s, the sequel Special Crime Investigation was released in the arcades in 1989 and ported to game consoles and computers in the early 1990s under the title Chase H.Q. II: Special Criminal Investigation. To promote Chase H.Q. II: Special Criminal Investigation for home computers, game publisher Ocean came up with a colorful print ad showcasing a few cars, a city background and elements of gun-related action presented in nice art. The ad has an image of the original arcade machine to remind gamers that they are playing the sequel to Chase H.Q.

    3. Dancing Eyes Japanese Arcade Flyer

    The front. The rear.

    Released by Namco in Japan in 1996, Dancing Eyes is a puzzle arcade game that became notorious due to its overtly sexual nature. With the way it was designed, players control a small monkey called Urusu-San and crawl along a 3D grid mapped over characters (mostly ladies) or various objects. If the 3D grid is mapped over a young lady, any tile of the grid destroyed by the player exposes the lady’s underwear or skin. Such sexuality is reflected in the arcade flyer of Dancing Eyes which has a suggestive hand-drawn art on the front while the game’s mechanics are explained in the rear. Even the rear of the flyer shows sexual nature of the game with screenshots. While the game was officially released only in Japan, Dancing Eyes actually was made available for gamers to play at the arcade of X-Site amusement center inside Festival Mall in Alabang during the early 2000s and it attracted a lot of guys. I bet Namco did not know about that.

    4. Sega Saturn North American Print Ad

    This print ad always caught people’s attention.

    When the Sega launched the Saturn console in America roughly four months ahead of schedule in 1995, the company suffered as the sales were disappointing, ties with business partners were strained and the available Saturn games were very few. By the fourth quarter of that year, more games became available for the Saturn and this gave Sega the opportunity to aggressively market the console as the one that gamers should get for their enjoyment. To promote the Saturn, Sega came up with a two-page print ad that had a dominant image of a naked woman whose private parts were cleverly covered by screenshots of the available games. Since most gamers were predominantly male from teenagers to adults, it made sense for Sega to come up with an eye-catching sexy ad to promote their console and the video games (including those from other companies). This old ad is considered by the woke and rabid feminists as very offensive today.

    5. Blockbuster Video Print Ad

    If you won the grand prize and wanted a lot of entertainment, you would not want to leave your home.

    Back in the late 20th century, Blockbuster Video was the dominant retailer that offered customers movies in home video format for sale and for rent. Along the way, the company offered video game rentals and attracted millions of gamers around the nation. Given the tremendous growth of video gaming in America in the 1990s, Blockbuster got itself more involved by launching the Games of Summer Sweepstakes in 1996. Utilizing print ads, the sweepstakes offered the Ultimate Game Rooms – composed of a 41-inch big-screen TV, Surround Sound speakers, hi-fi VCR, NBA Jame Extreme arcade game, the Sega Saturn, the PlayStation, a gaming chair, Acclaim games for Saturn and PlayStation, and a 1-year free Blockbuster Video game rentals privilege – as the grand prizes. Do you know anyone who won in Blockbuster’s sweepstakes?

    6. Independence Day (ID4) Print Ad

    A nice looking ad for a game that was actually mediocre.

    Remember how big a blockbuster Independence Day (ID4) was in cinemas in 1996? The film grossed over $800 million worldwide and it revived the disaster movie genre using modern filmmaking techniques and the latest technologies of the decade. Given the massive success of the movie, it was not surprising that an official video game adaptation was released in 1997. To promote the game, Fox Interactive (the video game company of the movie studio behind the film) came up with a 2-page print ad using official artwork from the movie showcasing the alien spaceship being attacked by a military fighter plane. The ad showed only 3 screenshots and the descriptive text was written to make gamers feel like they have the role to lead Earth’s fight against the aliens. While the art looks good, it can only go so far to hide the mediocrity of the game itself.

    7. GoldenEye 007 Print Ad

    Bond, James Bond.

    When GoldenEye achieved both critical and financial success in movies, it revived the James Bond movie franchise big-time and Pierce Brosnan was easily accepted by the public as the newest Agent 007. Several months before the movie was even released, an official video game adaptation started development. After much revisions and hard adjustments, the project evolved into a first-person shooting game for the Nintendo 64 console titled GoldenEye 007. To promote the game, Nintendo came up with a 2-page print ad that cleverly showed Brosnan as James Bond on the left and displayed the screenshots and other details on the right. This ad was easily eye-catching and it made lots of gamers excited. As history showed, GoldenEye 007 got released in 1997 and became a huge critical and commercial success while also proving that first-person shooters on game consoles can be a lot of fun.

    8. North American Sega Saturn Games Promo Print Ad

    There definitely was something fun offered to gamers. Who could go wrong with titles like Tomb Raider, Nights into Dreams, Virtual On and Virtua Cop 2?

    As mentioned earlier, the Sega Saturn had a bad launch in America in 1995 which caused a lot of problems for the company. In 1996, Sega of America went on the offensive to really capture gamers’ attention by launching their Saturn games promo. The message of this 2-page print ad was very clear…Sega offered one free first-party game (limited to four specific games including Nights into Dreams) to those who bought two games (from a lineup of twelve specific titles). It should be noted that the Christmas season of 1996 was the most successful sales period of the Sega Saturn in America as gamers really responded to the promo. Even though some called this promo an act of desperation, nothing changes the fact that Sega succeeded during the most critical sales season of 1996.

  25. A 249-year-old indictment looks unfortunately current today

    The Declaration of Independence is worth reading on any Fourth of July for its preamble alone, which sets out a concise mission statement for the United States and any just government: to secure “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness” and other “inalienable Rights” for everyone.

    But on this July 4, the Declaration’s third segment–its list of 27 offenses charged against King George III–seems relevant in ways that I wish it were not. At least nine of them appear applicable to the actions of the vainglorious man in the White House who does not want to be bothered with opposition and likes being compared to a king.

    He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.

    Is there another way to describe Trump’s repeated flouting of the law imposing a commercial ban on TikTok? That statute may not be wholesome or necessary, but its provisions are clear and have been upheld by the Supreme Court. Trump and Elon Musk’s DOGE minions have also ignored the law to try to dismantle agencies and offices created by Congress, such as the U.S. Agency for International Development and the U.S. Institute of Peace.

    He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.

    Trump imposing yet another travel ban that mainly targets Muslim and brown people was one of the least surprising developments of the first 100 days of his second term. His attempts to deport legal permanent residents–who often happen to be Muslim or brown–solely because of their speech have been only a little less surprising.

    He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

    How else would you describe ICE raids across American cities, which should only escalate now that the budget-busting reconcilation bill will vastly increase that agency’s power?

    He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

    Trump illegally took command of the California National Guard and deployed it in Los Angeles without the consent of California’s government, Judge Charles Breyer found in a ruling since stayed on appeal. During a June hearing, Breyer commented that this limit of presidential authority represented “the difference between a constitutional government and King George.”

    He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

    If we may consider ICE a militarized agency–which seems fair enough, given how often its personnel have been showing up in uniforms and with weapons as if an L.A. swap meet were Fallujah–then you can consider Trump guilty of this charge. ICE’s leadership, in turn, keeps acting and speaking as if their mission is far too important to be held up by the usual legal niceties.

    For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

    Tariffs are taxes, even if American customers don’t pay them directly to the government, and the U.S. Court for International Trade found in May that the 1977 law that Trump has cited did not give him authority to impose them.

    For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:

    The Trump administration has repeatedly argued that unauthorized immigrants–a status that it alone gets to determine–are not entitled to the due-process rights guaranteed by the Constitution.

    For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

    This administration sees fit to deport those alleged unauthorized immigrants to foreign hellholes like El Salvador’s CECOT.

    For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

    Trump’s attempt to vacate the Fourteenth Amendment’s guarantee of birthright citizenship with an executive order is a grotesque attack on a fundamental part of our republic–one that the Supreme Court has yet to throw out as the unconstitutional trash that it is.

    President Trump has not, however, “dissolved Representative Houses” or “refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected.” And the time is coming near for Americans once again to vote for their representatives–which, in two of the original 13 colonies named on the Declaration, my home state of New Jersey and my adopted state of Virginia, happens not next November but this fall in statewide elections. Protest and organize now, but do not neglect your opportunity then to instruct this government that it does not have the consent of you, the governed.

    I'm on the phone w/ the #Agency
    Since I left the apartment 25 mins ago, right? #onHold of course. Yep yep. So, finally, just as I'm completing a separate financial transaction where i'm required to count change; put a card away, the lady answers. She hung up on me.

    Then there's a guy standing very near the busiest intersection in #StateCollege . Shoutin through a #megaphone . I'm pretty sure I heard something about sinners. Man I nearly got into an accident.

    It's just not safe to go around anymore. Oh yeah.
    And it's the #IndependenceDay
    The #octogenarians are out today!

    Get on out-there, people! It's 90° and your AC is going to break while you're at the stoplight. Just so you know.

    Some float participants threw beads or candy, others stuffed animals, and one float fired pickleballs into the crowd. Return fire came in the way of super soakers, which for some came as a relief.
