Kadir, 16 Jahre: Deutscher, Türke, Hamburger, begnadeter Fußballer, IS-Kämpfer... Kadir steht vor dem Hamburger Fußballstadion auf St. Pauli. Die Sporttasche zu seinen Füßen, reckt er die Hand mit dem Handy in die Höhe und ruft: »Allahu Akbar!« Gott ist groß! Wird er sich und Hunderte Unschuldige gleich in die Luft sprengen? Mark, Kadirs bester Freund und Fußballkumpel, erzählt uns, was zuvor geschah. Von Kadirs Radikalisierung durch die »Brüder« vom Kulturverein bis hin zu seinem plötzlichen Verschwinden aus Hamburg. Erst später erfährt auch Mark die ganze Wahrheit. Kadir hielt sich in Syrien auf. Wir erleben ihn an der Seite von IS-Kämpfern. Sehen seinen Alltag in Syrien zwischen Langeweile, Schockzustand und Gewalt. Doch dann kehrt Kadir zurück nach Hamburg – mit der fatalen Entscheidung, doch noch als Märtyrer zu sterben. "Ein komplexes Thema fesselnd, leidenschaftlich und mit Gespür für die menschlichen Untiefen der Charaktere erzählt." Ahmad Mansour, Diplompsychologe und Autor von "Generation Allah" „Eine eindrückliche Erzählung, die ihre jugendlichen Protagonisten und ihr Thema - die Radikalisierung unter Heranwachsenden - ernst nimmt. Ein spannender, dramatischer Roman, der weder beschönigt noch blind verteufelt, sondern hyperrealistisch erzählt, wohin das führen kann." Yassin Musharbash, Terrorismusexperte und Autor von „Radikal“ "Ein kenntnisreicher Blick in die Welt der Dschihadisten. Spannend bis zur letzten Zeile." Martin Schäuble, Politikwissenschaftler und Autor von „Black Box Dschihad“ „Ein berührender – mit Witz geschriebener – aber erschreckend realer Roman über Freundschaft und die vergebliche Suche eines türkischen Jungen nach seinem Platz in der modernen Welt."

Copyright 2019 - The Energy Show, Barry Cinnamon People talk about solar panels and batteries a lot (at least the people I talk to). The reasons are that solar panels are conspicuous on rooftops -- and batteries are what keep the lights on during increasingly frequent blackouts. But the real brains of a solar and battery storage system is the inverter. With increased global production, solar panels and battery cells have become commodities -- differentiated mainly by price and efficiency. For a variety of reasons, inverters are still quite specialized. Initially, inverters simply converted DC current to household AC current. Modern inverters also provide a variety of safety features (rapid shutdown and arc fault protection), monitoring, and grid support services. The next generation of inverters extends beyond solar, providing backup power, EV charging and home energy management capabilities. Through a combination of great technology, disciplined execution and industry vision, SolarEdge has become the leading inverter company. Based on my experience in the field (and roof), they have the best combination of efficiency, safety, installation ease and overall value. Most importantly, SolarEdge continues to push the technology envelope as they expand into backup power and distributed grid services. Our guest on this week's Energy Show is Peter Mathews, General Manager of North America for SolarEdge. He has done a terrific job growing SolarEdge to over a 60% market share in the U.S. Please listen to this week's Energy Show as Peter shares insights around SolarEdge's business, how SolarEdge is addressing the power crisis in California, their new commercial products, and the company's ongoing product vision for a distributed grid.
We're talking about the financialisation of housing, LGBT+ and housing, and housing as a site of emotions and relationship building.

We return to the land of the Maya, to visit their most stunning artistic achievement. The stelae of Copán, many constructed to honor Waxaklajuun Ubaad Kawiil, 13th king of the city, are remarkably intricate, humanist yet fantastic. His reign marked the highest point and also the lowest, as within decades of his untimely death, Copán and the other Classic Mayan cities would be abandoned. Or were they? Listener Richard Dennis describes his impressions of visiting Copán and traditional Honduran cuisine: beans and tortillas, culminating in the baleada. And we can't talk about Honduras without discussing the Football War.

The Maya return as we visit Tikal, nestled in the jungles of northern Guatemala, and pick up the story of Nuun Ujol Chaak, after he left Palenque. Nuun Ujol Chaak was a rebel, facing unfathomable odds against an evil empire. And even if he might fall in the end, his son Jasaw Chan Kawi'il would take up the mantle and restore Tikal to greatness. It's his pyramids that tower above the treeline, representing the greatest architectural achievement of the Classic Maya. Nitin Sil from the Flash Point History podcast, appears to talk about his travels to Tikal, from climbing pyramids to avoiding monkeys. Guatemala is much more than Tikal, and its history as a "Banana Republic" gets a closer look. Its food, with its roots in centuries of Maya culture, merits a taste as well, especially pipian, a pumpkin-seed based sauce that works splendidly with chicken. Sources: Brown, Chip.

Back to Mesoamerica, only this time, we introduce the Maya. At the edge of the highlands of Chiapas, Mexico, sits the city of Lakam Ha, today called Palenque. Among its magnificent ruins is the Temple of the Inscriptions, the tomb of king Pakal. His rule was one of the longest in human history; yet how much of his success came from the strong women around him? We talk about the Mayan calendar, 2012, Pakal's magnificent tomb, and his sarcophagus which was NOT made by aliens. There's more to see in Chiapas as well, like colonial San Cristóbal, indigenous villages, waterfalls, and Mayan ruins Bonmapak and Yaxchilán. But for food, we head to next door Oaxaca to talk mole and mezcal margaritas. Sources: Deane, Zain.

ISACS17: Resonant Worlds: Sound, Art & Science | Konferenz Friday 09/29/17, Vortragssaal ISACS17 (re)investigates the intersections of sound, art and science from the perspective of artistic / creative curation. The participants are asked to showcase, and reflect on, their own practices from the perspective of how and why choices are made in order to make things »work« – in the sense that it resonates in/with other people, contexts, culture, society, history, and »the world«. These are perhaps issues of (and effects from) embodied experiences, of language games, of existence. /// Freitag 29.9.17, Vortragssaal Auf der »ISACS17« werden die Schnittstellen von Sound, Kunst und Wissenschaft aus Perspektive des künstlerischen / kreativen Kuratierens (neu) untersucht. Die TeilnehmerInnen wurden gebeten, ihre Arbeiten aus dem Blickwinkel zu präsentieren und zu hinterfragen wie und warum Entscheidungen getroffen wurden, mit denen die Funktionalität von Dingen erreicht werden soll – in dem Sinne, dass diese Entscheidungen in anderen Menschen, Kontexten, Kulturen, Gesellschaften, der Geschichte und »der Welt« nachhallen. Dies können Problemstellungen (und Effekte) von verkörperten Erfahrungen, Sprachspielen oder der Existenz sein.

On the Project Censored show Peter Phillips with California Green Party activist Laura Wells as co-host interview professor Peter Mathews regarding his book “Dollar Democracy: with Liberty and Justice for Some,” regarding key issues including the decline of the middle class, inequality in education, health care, the collapse of the environment, and what needs to be done. The conversation addresses issues from GMO labeling to California's Proposition 13 to the runaway Pentagon budget; Matthews' underlying theme is that most contemporary political problems can be traced to the super-rich controlling the electoral process through campaign contributions. The post Project Censored – August 7, 2015 appeared first on KPFA.
Peter Mathews appears for the first time. Chris Powell, Daniel McAdams and David Jensen return. In “Dollar Democracy: with Liberty & Justice for Some” Mathews explains how the election game is played and identifies many of the corporations that own both political parties and dictate policies. But at the heart of our corrupt political system is a fraudulent monetary system. As Alan Greenspan understood, in order to perpetuate our counterfeit monetary system that is used to buy the government, you have to keep citizens disinterested in using gold as money. Chris Powell of GATA appears to provide the latest evidence of gold market manipulation and the constant cover up of that crime by the establishment. As usual, McAdams will join me to update us on the latest revelations on the Ron Paul Institute website. And Jensen will relate how geopolitics intersects with ongoing fraud in the precious metals markets. Your host will mention some top gold stock picks time permitting.
