  7. #Blackwater Founder #ErikPrince Talks About Wagner, War, and More

    By Greg Chabot, July 24, 2022

    "After the success of this program [Blackwater], Prince was approached by officials in Russia asking for his help to start up a PMC. Prince turned down the generous offer that he says could have made him a billionaire. The #PMC nevertheless formed, he says, and is known as the #Wagner Group."

  10. 3/ The #NIH policy is all-green (#GreenOA). It requires deposit in an OA repository, PubMed Central (#PMC). It does not require publishing in an OA journal.

    If you're an NIH-funded author and a journal tells you that you must pay an #APC to comply with the policy, it's lying. Compliance with the policy is free of charge. If a journal asks you to pay an APC, it's only to publish in that particular journal. Consider taking your submission elsewhere.

  11. #SPARC has released its own new info on the new #NIH #OpenAccess policy.
    sparcopen.org/wp-content/uploa

    Excerpt:

    <blockquote>
    ● The Policy requires immediate public access to articles -- #embargoes are no longer allowed.
    ● NIH reiterates authors do not have to pay a fee to comply with the Policy.
    ● The Policy applies to manuscripts accepted for publication on or after July 1, 2025. This means the Policy will apply to existing grants if an article is accepted on or after that date.
    ● The Policy requires that final peer-reviewed manuscripts be submitted to #PubMedCentral (#PMC) upon acceptance to be made publicly available immediately upon publication.
    ● The Policy requires that grantees explicitly grant the NIH the right to make the manuscript available in PMC without an embargo.
    ● The Policy does not explicitly grant full reuse rights of the manuscript to the public.

  14. "The target of the administration’s campaign is a stratum of society that’s sometimes called the #ProfessionalManagerialClass, or the #PMC, although there’s not one universal moniker that #MAGA applies to the group it is now crushing. That group includes society’s knowledge workers, its cognitive elite, the winners of the tournament that is the American meritocracy. It covers not only #lawyers, university administrators, and #professors, but also #consultants, investment #bankers, #scientists, #journalists, and other white-collar workers who have prospered in the information age.

    Back in the 1990s, as the group began to emerge in its current form, the liberal economics commentator Robert Reich hailed its members as “symbolic analysts”—people who identify and solve problems by thinking through ideas rather than via physical labor. A decade later, the urbanist Richard Florida put forth an even more triumphalist term: the “#creativeclass.” That is, its members had the academic training to master the complexities of a globalized economy, the intellectual skills to conquer the digital world."

  15. 🇷🇺 RUSSIA | 🇺🇦 UKRAINE
    🔴 El Pais: After Wagner, Kadyrov’s “Akhmat” Forces Rise

    🔸 Following Prigozhin’s death, many Wagner fighters joined Kadyrov’s elite “Akhmat” unit.
    🔸 Group maintains semi-autonomy and openly challenges the Russian General Staff.
    🔸 Fighters come from across Russia – and even Ecuador.
    🔸 Akhmat active in Kursk, Luhansk, Donetsk fronts; praised for loyalty over politics.

  16. So I didn't know, but Europe already has a backup of PubMed, the database of biomedical research publications. The US PubMed broke down over the weekend. And here is our alternative: europepmc.org/

  17. The main problem is that any scientist in the world who is starting research on an healthcare related topic starts by looking for reference literature via #Pubmed.
    Even if the paper is not hosted on #PMC you'll get the abstract, possibly some figures, citations and the authors.

  18. Ummmm... From #wikipedia:

    The #WagnerGroup (Russian: #ГруппаВагнера, romanized: Gruppa Vagnera), officially known as PMC Wagner (ЧВК «Вагнер»), is a #Russian state-funded private military company (#PMC) controlled until 2023 by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a former close ally of Russia's president Vladimir #Putin, and since then by Pavel Prigozhin. The Wagner Group has used infrastructure of the Russian Armed Forces. Evidence suggests that Wagner has been used as a proxy by the Russian government, allowing it to have plausible deniability for military operations abroad, and hiding the true casualties of Russia's foreign interventions.

    "The group emerged during the war in #Donbas, where it helped Russian separatist forces in #Ukraine from 2014 to 2015. Wagner played a significant role in the later full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, for which it recruited Russian prison #inmates for frontline combat. By the end of 2022, its strength in Ukraine had grown from 1,000 to between 20,000 and 50,000. It was reportedly Russia's main assault force in the Battle of Bakhmut. Wagner has also supported regimes friendly with Russia, including in the civil wars in #Syria, #Libya, the #CentralAfricanRepublic, and #Mali. In Africa, it has offered regimes security in exchange for the transfer of diamond and gold mining contracts to Russian companies. Wagner operatives have been accused of #WarCrimes including #murder, #torture, #rape and #robbery of #civilians, as well as #torturing and killing accused #Deserters.

    [...]

    "Early in 2020, #ErikPrince, founder of the #Blackwater private military company, sought to provide military services to the Wagner Group in its operations in Libya and #Mozambique, according to The Intercept. By March 2021, Wagner PMCs were reportedly also deployed in #Zimbabwe, #Angola, #Guinea, #GuineaBissau, and possibly the #DemocraticRepublicOfCongo."

  19. 🇺🇦 #Ukraine: Fighters of the #Russian #neoNazi #paramilitary unit “#Rusich” have posted footage of them executing #Ukrainian #prisoners of #war. Per capita, Rusich is the largest paramilitary unit currently fighting for #Russia in east Ukraine. They’re backed by the #Kremlin and have also been seen fighting in #Africa and #Syria, previously with close links to the neo-Nazi mercenary unit #PMC #Wagner.

  20. Another major development in Gaza today is that an American mercenary outfit is now operating in Gaza in areas that the IOF wishes to continue controlling. This group is likely staffed by Americans.

    The US based mercenaries were seen driving white trucks and being guided by IOF soldiers to where they will be stationed.

  21. “With nearly 70% of its teaching staff on precarious contracts, Oxford is one of the worst offenders, but this is an issue that extends across UK higher education.”

    Not just the UK either. I know people who have been on similar gig contracts at NZ universities, and I've read worse stories about the US. Another product of the PMC (Professional-Managerial Class)

  22. Hamadine Driss Ag Mohamed, son of #Abeibara’s village chief, told AP that Malian soldiers and fighters from the Russian mercenary group #Wagner had killed 46 civilians.

    “The Malian and Wagner soldiers executed old men and shepherds and stole everything they found in the camps such as money and valuable jewelry”.

  23. '#Redut is a defence ministry operated #PMC . It is said to operate out of regular military bases, and its servicemen sign contracts directly with the ministry. The so called #Russian Expeditionary Corps is now being set up as part of Redut. (Rumoured to be set up to take over #Wagner ’s #Africa ops) Recently, according to grey zone they grew from 2500 fighters to a staggering manpower of about 20,000 men, with plans to recruit 20 thousand more.'

  24. Das Humanitäre Völkerrecht unterscheidet zwischen Söldnern und "private military contractors" (PMCs). Anhand der im Ukraine-Krieg aktiven Wagner-Gruppe zeigt Sarah Katharina Stein in "Geschichte der Gegenwart" die Unterschiede auf.

  26. #Introduction Hi everyone, I'm a #collector. I enjoying collecting & learning about #coins, #exonumia (#tokens, #medallions, etc), & #banknotes. I've also got into #PNC & #PMC collecting lately (Postal Numismatic Covers & Postal Medallic Covers, like a first day cover stamp release envelope, but with a coin or medallion as well). I try to post photos & information about interesting pieces regularly, especially #MedalMonday, #TokenTuesday & #SaturdayNightCoinShow, but not only. I'm in #Australia
