A brutal assault on the whole street suffered by a woman

A brutal assault on the whole street suffered by a woman, accused of having slept with a married man, in this city.



The victim of the attack, Lin Yao Li, aged 38, was beaten and undressed. She was then thrown to the pavement at the look of many people who did not intervene arguing that "she deserved it for sleeping with another woman's husband.

This incident is the last of several who have registered in China, where women have been attacked for messing with married men, a punishment that society seems to pass.

Li was attacked by four women as he walked to his house after shopping in Puyang city in Henan province and after that, the woman was taken to the hospital to be treated with wounds and blows

Greece officially entered the Great War rather belatedly in June 1917, despite informal involvement since 1914.  On July 2nd, 1917, several weeks after King Constantine I abdicates his throne in Athens under pressure from the Allies, Greece declares war on the Central Powers, ending three years of neutrality by entering World War I alongside Britain, France, Russia and Italy. Constantine, educated in Germany and married to a sister of Kaiser Wilhelm II, was naturally sympathetic to the Germans when World War I broke out in the summer of 1914, refusing to honor Greece’s obligation to support Serbia, its ally during the two Balkan Wars in 1912 - 1913. Despite pressure from his own pro-Allied government, including Prime Minister Eleutherios Venizelos, and British and French promises of territorial gains in Turkey, Constantine maintained Greece’s neutrality for the first three years of the war, although he did allow British and French forces to disembark at Salonika in late 1914 in a p...

Communicating With Your Partner On Deployment

Communicating With Your Partner On Deployment Hopefully, you and your service member had a discussion during pre-deployment about how often you'll communicate while he's gone. If you didn't do this before he left, it's not too late to try to establish these expectations now. However, even with a tentative calling or emailing schedule, both you and your service member may struggle to maintain the routine. As much as service members would like to establish a schedule for reaching their loved ones, their missions in a combat zone or operational activities may interfere. As a result, many spouses and partners carry cell phones with them at all times to avoid missing their service member's call. tone can be mistaken, causing confusion and conflict. Whenever possible, both you and your service member should give one another the benefit of the doubt when something that is expressed in writing just "doesn't seem right." This can save both of you a great deal o...

king-leopold

king-leopold Most people have no idea of who is pictured above, but you should. The sight of this man should cause a similar revulsion to that of seeing Mussolini, Mao, Stalin or Hitler, as he committed an African genocide that resulted in the killing of over 10 million people in the Congo. His name is King Leopold II of Belgium. Most of people never learned about him in school, and have also most likely never heard about him in the media either. This is because he’s not included in the popular narrative of oppression (which includes things like U.S. slavery and the Holocaust). King Leopold II is part of an ongoing history of colonialism, imperialism, slavery, and genocide in Africa that would clash with the popular social narratives taught in our school system today. It doesn’t fit neatly into school curriculums where, paradoxically, it is looked down upon to make overtly racist statements. However, it’s quite fine not to talk about a genocide perpetrated by European capitalist monarc...

A 1969 timeline: Turbulent year signaled major societal change

A 1969 timeline: Turbulent year signaled major societal change The news in 1969 may not have been as big or as bad as in 1968, which had the Kennedy and King assassinations.  But there was more of it in 1969, and whatever happened in any category was usually stranger than what had come before it in a decade that had already been strange to the extreme The most astonishing events could be easily reduced to a handful: Woodstock, People’s Park, Charlie Manson, the Zodiac, the moon landing, the Alcatraz occupation, the Miracle Mets, Broadway Joe, the Weathermen, Chappaquiddick and “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice.” Fifty years later, you can mention any of these to someone who remembers, and you will be headed deep into tumult and trivia. It’s why we decided to task our Chronicle writers and critics to take a deep dive into that year’s cultural moments; the landmark bits of music, film and television that helped shape 1969, and the years — decades — that followed. You can read th...

Free from Slavery: African Americans in the Civil War

Free from Slavery: African Americans in the Civil War In his January 1, 1863, Emancipation Proclamation, Lincoln permanently freed all slaves in all areas then in rebellion against the United States. Often overlooked is an additional provision in that proclamation by which Lincoln specifically authorized the use of freed slaves in Union military service: “And I further declare and make known, that such persons [declared to be free] of suitable condition, will be received into the armed service of the United States to garrison forts, positions, stations, and other places, and to man vessels of all sorts in said service.” Thus, the way was formally cleared for the blacks’ direct participation in the war, the African Americans in the Civil War. A step in that direction was taken with the March 25, 1863, War Department issuance of orders to Brigadier General Lorenzo Thomas, the Army’s adjutant general, to proceed to Grant’s theater and confer with him about maximum use of the black fugitiv...
