The main character Thomas in Eternal life is a successful American businessman, also a confidant of author Nguyen Phong. In part 1, Thomas has lived through mystical lives, from the mighty Atlantis civilization to the ancient Egyptian kingdom of powerful Pharaohs to modern-day America. In part 2, Thomas continues his human journey through three lives Assyrian, Greek and modern times with a mysterious colleague from past lives, Kris. The incredible interlacing stories of the two easily explain the Buddhist lessons – from attachment to cause and effect, reincarnation… Attachment remains after death The story goes that, one day Thomas was visiting the old house of an old friend, this businessman suddenly saw a strange old man, turned out to be a spirit that passed away decades ago. This accountant’s soul implored Thomas to fulfill one wish: Destroy the papers recording the wrong payments of the former owner, because of sudden death the accountant was unable to do so. . “It’s been more than 80 years, I still have that in my heart and have never dared to leave this house. I have to stay here to keep the notebook, to avoid it falling into the hands of others,” the old man said. That is, just because of an unfinished task that his spirit could not escape forever. Thomas’s strange encounter with the old accountant’s ghost can help us figure out where we are in the river of destiny. Meeting is destiny, working with the boss is life; spending in the dark is the cause, and the notebook is the effect. The old accountant’s attachment is that the boss’s secrets should not be kept, secrets that can affect the reputation of the person he has served. It has become a stored part of the store consciousness of this life. “When a person dies, a person leaves the physical body and exists in another form called the bardo or spirit body. This is the intermediate state between death and the next rebirth. The only thing that really exists is the store consciousness, which is the basis of existence, the foundation of all consciousness. Every thought, word, and action in a lifetime, whether good or bad, creates a cause, or a seed, which is stored in the store-consciousness, never to be lost,” the book explains. Eternal life, part 1, 2 – Author: Nguyen Phong Sow cause and reap fruit Human life is like a dream, it’s too short for us to stop and reflect on what causes cause and effect, and then steps into the spirit world and the rest is just attachment. Meetings in Eternal life Part 2 is sometimes too mundane, like what we have been going through. But reading until the end, we realize, it turns out that every daily action can cause cause and effect, which no one can control. Thomas and Don C (the new owner of the accountant’s ghost house) make friends from a co-worker relationship that is also a result of cause and effect for both of them. Thomas meeting the spirit is a part of life, releasing the responsibility for the spirit to return peace to the Don C family is a part of picking the fruit. But it is also possible that Thomas is spreading past cause and effect, or new cause in the future. Still follow Eternal life In part 2, when cause and effect will bear fruit depends on many other factors such as inspiration, subsequent behavior and merit of each person. Causality interdependence manifests: “If this exists, the other is formed. When this arises, the other arises. If one does not exist, the other does not exist. When this is destroyed, the other is destroyed.” That is also the fate, the predestined birth. Our small actions every day can make a huge connection over time. The Mission of Reincarnation We humans are inherently sentient and as in theory Dependent origination of Buddhism, one can become entangled in the cycle of samsara. A continuous cycle of cause and effect can then be transmigrated to the six paths of reincarnation: heaven, human, Atula, animal, hungry ghosts, and hell. Thomas’s colorful journey back to his past life, through “the Mesopotamian deserts of Assyria to ancient Greece, Persia, and India through the conquests of Alexander the Great” has explained us better about this. the reincarnation of a human being. Thomas and his mysterious friend Kris have cultivated together for many lifetimes, although the path is not the same, but the predestined connection has caused them to meet again to complete their previous promises and missions. Or Thomas reunited with friends from past lives to relearn lessons to be learned. If there is a cause, there must be a result, so two people keep borrowing and repaying each other, lasting for many lifetimes without end. Such is the complexity of cause and effect in samsara. And each person’s task is to live a life that opens their hearts to everyone, develops love, and learns the lessons they need to learn, “instead of just worrying about beautifying the body, which is now dead and floating. life after life in the endless stream of samsara”, as Thomas explained.

Considering that there was not much fresh water and food left on the Faust, the people on the shore had no hope of saving the poor sailors on this ship. The rescue team has changed the search and rescue objective to finding the wreckage of the ship – because given the current situation, there is a high probability that the ship has sunk. Three days after the disappearance, the situation suddenly changed. It was also what happened that day that made the mystery surrounding Faust even more difficult to explain. At midnight on July 25, Spanish maritime authorities received an urgent radio message that a British ship Duquesa had just returned from South America found a small fishing boat in the middle of the ocean. sea. Sailors on board were waving flashlights and begging for help. The sailors on board the Duquesa determined that at that time the ship that sent out the help signal was located at 28º15´ North latitude, 19 kinh45 West longitude, 190km west of La Palma’s position. Duquesa. The rescue team immediately contacted Duquesa via radio and confirmed that the four people they rescued were Ramón, Eliberto Hernández, Miguel and Julio aboard the Faust. According to the captain of the Duquesa, when the Faust was discovered, the people on board were dehydrated, hungry, red in the face and full of anxiety. After drinking soft drinks, food and cigars provided by the Duquesa, the crew almost regained their energy and strength. The captain of Duquesa offered to tow them back to La Palma, but the crew refused. They said that their ship is in good working order, there are no mechanical failures, power problems, as long as they provide enough fuel, food and water, they can continue to return. The place where Faust was found after the first disappearance, about 190 km from the original destination. Hearing what the crew of the Faust said, the captain of the Duquesa felt a little strange, but he did not investigate carefully, because the four crew members in front of him no longer seemed to have any health problems. healthy and they are very alert. After discussing with the crew of his ship, the captain of Duquesa agreed to the request of the other party. They had been in similar distress before and in their experience, with sufficient water and food supplies, these experienced sailors were often able to save themselves and return. Faust was then refueled for the 18-hour voyage, as well as enough food and fresh water for their return journey. Crew members on board the Duquesa observed them heading east and were expected to arrive at La Palma at 19 o’clock that evening. At this time, the people on the island felt very happy because of that, so they rushed to celebrate, preparing a grand banquet for the returning crew members, the wives and children of four members on the ship. is no exception. Crowds wait at the pier. But when the clock reached 19 o’clock, the people on the island still did not see any trace of the ship, but they still encouraged and comforted each other, believing that the Faust ship would soon return to port in this time. Until midnight, many people were still standing on the pier to wait, all that night, the family members of the members on the ship did not sleep but still tried to wait, intense anxiety and fear began to take over. everyone’s heart. The Faust was saved, but never returned, so where did they go? The name Faust is also a very popular story in Europe. The story goes that Faust was a scholar, an astronomer, a doctor, and an alchemist. He was so hungry for knowledge, that he began to study magic to satisfy his curiosity about all things. Realizing this, one day, Mephistopheles – the demon of hell – appeared before Faust and made a deal: Mephistopheles would serve Faust on earth for a while, doing everything Faust asked. Until Faust comes to a moment where he wants to live forever in that moment, he will die, and Faust’s soul will have to serve Mephistopheles in hell. Mephistopheles’ first job with Faust was to impress Gretchen, the neighbor Faust loved. With the help of Mephistopheles, Faust used his treasures and possessions to win the hearts of the whole Gretchen family. Later, Mephistopheles also caused the deaths of members of Gretchen’s family, to bring Gretchen closer to Faust. Eventually Gretchen became pregnant with Faust. Gretchen’s brother knew about it, and challenged Faust to a duel. With Mephisto’s aid, Faust kills Gretchen’s brother. Knowing this, Gretchen threw the infant into the river. She was later sent to prison for murder. When Faust arrives at the prison and uses Mephisto’s powers to save Gretchen, she refuses. When Faust left the prison, a voice came down from heaven, that the girl’s soul would be saved. Faust continued to use Mephisto’s service to travel the world, possessing all the riches, knowledge, and power of the world. However, the ending of the story is very unclear. There are several versions, Faust is saved by God, the soul goes to Heaven. There are also places where it is said that Faust must obey the agreement and go to hell to serve Mephistopheles

UEFA sponsorship Azerbaijan relies on a new strategy

Status: 12.06.2021 12:17 p.m. Azerbaijan’s capital Baku is a venue for the European Football Championship. State-owned oil company SOCAR has been a UEFA sponsor since 2013, but recently it dropped out. It’s part of a new strategy. From Silvia Stöber, tagesschau.de Azerbaijan’s capital, Baku, shows itself from its brilliant side: three group matches and the quarter-finals of the European Football Championship will be played in the national stadium, which was opened in 2015. The state-owned energy company SOCAR signed on as a sponsor eight years ago for 90 million euros. However, its logo has recently been missing from the UEFA website. When asked by German media such as “11Freunde”, the European Football Association only confirmed the departure of SOCAR. There are several reasons to part with the oil company: The involvement in sport should distract from the human rights violations of the leadership in Baku, which has critics of the authoritarian and corrupt government persecuted and imprisoned – is one charge, another: Propaganda against the enemy neighbor during the war in autumn, with SOCAR mainly sharing tweets from the Azerbaijani leadership.

New business strategy

However, according to news on Azerbaijani websites, the initiative to break up did not come from UEFA. Accordingly, SOCAR decided to end the sponsorship. At the end of May, the financial news portal fins.az quoted the deputy head of the public relations and event organization department of SOCAR, Ibrahin Ahmedov, saying that the company had changed its business strategy. For those projects that no longer fit, the expenses would be reduced. This also includes the extension of the partnership with UEFA. The press organ “iki sahil” explained that SOCAR decided in 2019 to rethink its old business strategy. With the management consultancy McKinsey, a new one has been developed for the period up to 2035, which takes into account the transformation of the global economy, the fourth industrial revolution and the energy transition.

Questions about the political benefit

In fact, the question arises how profitable the costly sponsorship as well as the Hosting sports and cultural events for Azerbaijan were. The country has become better known around the world since it hosted the “Eurovision Song Contest” in 2012 and sports events such as Formula 1 in Baku every year since 2016. But sports and cultural events were always associated with reports on authoritarian governance, corruption and the human rights situation. This was ensured by national and international actors from civil society, the media and politics.

In Azerbaijan, hoped for political support for the forcible recapture of areas under the control of enemy neighbors Armenia was limited to a few countries such as its close ally Turkey. Whose President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will not only use the European Football Championship to play in the group game between Turkey and Wales in Baku. He will also be in that during the war in autumn conquered city of Shusha travel.

Heralded the post-oil era

Apart from that, SOCAR’s withdrawal from sponsorship shows the adaptability of the leadership around President Ilham Aliyev, who succeeded his father Gaidar in office in 2003. The often underestimated president succeeded in asserting himself against competitors and old power structures. To this end, he appointed his wife Mehriban Aliyeva as his deputy in 2017. She comes from a business family from Baku that has a corporate empire with Pasha Holding, but is considered more modern than the conventional oligarchs.

March 13, 2021

Modernization was the Aliyev’s response to severe crises that befell the country from 2014 onwards. At that time, oil prices fell massively for the first time. Azerbaijan experienced the first recession since 1995, the central bank had to devalue the national currency sharply. Despite the repression, the population’s displeasure over falling incomes was expressed in protests. In previous years, experts had warned of the dry up of energy sources on land. Extracting oil and gas from the Caspian Sea is more complex and expensive. At the World Economic Forum in Davos in 2018, Aliyev said: “When we saw a significant drop in oil prices, I said the post-oil era had already begun for us in Azerbaijan. We should forget about oil and gas.” He made the diversification of the economy the main objective. The main sources of income should be innovative technologies, entrepreneurship and agriculture.

Digital and green technologies

In fact, Aliyev filled senior posts with young technocrats. you de-bureaucratised and digitized the administration – to the delight of the citizens, who can now receive services from the state without bribery. Foreign companies should be able to invest more easily in special economic zones.

04/11/2018

Aliyev drew up ambitious plans for the areas recaptured during the war with the use and development of digital and green technologies. The British company Chapman Taylor received the contract for the town planning from Schuscha, who had previously carried out construction projects for Pasha Holding. Turkish companies, some with ties to Erdogan, take on infrastructure and mining projects.

Elite corruption remains

Experts and journalists point out that these contracts were awarded without tenders and transparency. This gives rise to the assumption that the fight against corruption is intended to spare the elite sector who want to develop sources of income apart from oil and gas with new branches of the economy. The fact that Azerbaijan is undergoing modernization, but not democratization, is also supported by the result of the parliamentary elections in 2020. To the disappointment of many of the younger generation, mostly old cadre members remained. Many new candidates from the ruling party were also not considered. The leadership used the strict restrictions at times during the corona pandemic to crack down on government critics. It remains to be seen whether the Azerbaijani leadership will withdraw from sponsorship entirely and whether other states with a similar background will also reconsider their commitment. For associations like UEFA, the question would then arise of how expensive events can be financed in the future.

For many countries, the price of fruits in Japan is unbelievably expensive, and not too diverse in terms of quantity. However, foreign guests are impressed by the freshness and quality of vegetables here. One of the most typical examples is the case when Vietnamese lychees are exported here, sold at a rather high price of 500,000 VND/kg, a box of 7 lychees is bought and placed in a very luxurious box. . 2. Japanese people are so easily embarrassed that even if they speak English, they won’t speak! The Japanese have long been known to be shy and timid, but to the extent that they dare not speak English to foreigners is strange. This makes communication quite difficult. “I find it a pity that so few Japanese people speak English to foreigners. I know a lot of people know English, but they don’t speak at all.” One visitor shared. 3. Men don’t pay the entire bill Even in the age of gender equality, it is quite common for men to actively pay for meals. Especially in Latin countries like Mexico, boys often take the initiative to pay, even women will try to convince him to pay anyway. But in Japan, it’s pretty fair when it comes to money. Some even consider being paid by their boyfriends as an insult to their economic situation. 4. Bathing with strangers? Small problem! One of the traditional Japanese customs is bathing in hot springs, and bathing in public baths. For many tourists, bathing with many people at the same time while wearing nothing is quite a sensitive issue. “I can’t get used to bathing with many people at the same time. There is no such culture in my country,” said an Indonesian female tourist.

Apple hires former BMW CEO for electric car project. The iPhone maker’s car-making efforts, known as Project Titan, have progressed unsatisfactorily since 2014. At this point, Apple began designing its own vehicles for the first time. In December 2020, Reuters reports that Apple is working on self-driving car technology and aims to produce a passenger vehicle, including breakthrough PIN technology, by 2024. Previously, in 2018, the tech giant Apple hired former Tesla design chief Andrew Kim, sparking speculation that Apple was once again trying to develop its own car. The timing of Apple’s hire of Andrew Kim seems to coincide with Doug Field’s return to Apple as well. Looking at the profile of Andrew Kim, this designer has contributed to Tesla’s hit models Model 3, Model S, Model X, Model Y as well as Roadster V2 and Semi. Before taking on a major role at Tesla, Kim spent three and a half years at Microsoft, where he developed user interfaces and Windows 10 products such as HoloLens and Xbox One S.

Mars hides the secret of life, always urging people to explore. Photo: NASA Today’s Earthlings are perhaps the most curious generation about the possibility of alien life on Mars, and are always wondering how humans might one day colonize there. From theories about Martian canals to alien radio messages, over the past three centuries, mankind has been constantly thinking about life on Mars. approach to his Martian “brothers”. Mars often appears in ancient texts as a “fire star,” or represents the god of War. In the 17th century, new early telescopes allowed scientists to get a glimpse of the Red Planet. Skilled “channel engineers”? Scientists need more powerful telescopes to be able to see up close, thereby trying to better clarify the hypothesis of life on Mars. In 1877, Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli noticed crisscrossing lines covering the “Red Planet”. He called these lines “canali”, which means “canal”. Schiaparelli himself does not believe that this is an alien product, but some others are sure of it. Giovanni Schiaparelli’s map of the “canal” system on Mars. Image: Wikimedia Commons As information spread, the word “canali” was translated into English as “canal”, meaning “canal”. And if there were canals, wouldn’t that suggest that aliens would have to dig them? With that argument, many people believe that the interlaced lines on the surface of Mars are a beautiful system of waterways spreading across the planet.. Such a system not only shows that Martians exist, but that they are also amazing engineers. On Earth, it took man 10 years to complete the Suez Canal in 1869. The achievements of the Martians therefore seem to be far superior to those achieved by man. Astronomer Percival Lowell certainly thought so. In 1894, this American scientist-businessman began to expand the concept of a “canal” on Mars. Lowell used his family’s large textile fortune to open the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA. Professor Percival Lowell works with a telescope invested by his family. Image: Wikimedia Commons Percival Lowell mapped the “canals” on Mars with the help of the 24-inch Alvan Clark & ​​Sons refracting telescope he set up at the Lowell Observatory. He made meticulous maps of what was observed on the surface of Mars, wrote many books and regularly gave lectures on his shocking theory that Martians existed and that they were trying to irrigate the planet. their dying elf. Percival Lowell offers logical explanations to answer the question of how and why life exists on Mars. He used the example of life on Earth to illustrate his arguments: “As long as it was proved with certainty that no life could exist on the seabed, dredgers deep sea beds were invented, and before long, they ‘frustrated’ us. Behold, they see full of life. Fish, crustaceans, molluscs and echinoderms. In short, the life of all common floating fish, from protozoa to marine ‘monsters’ – have been found living in the depths of the seabed. What is impossible, turns out to be possible.” But mapping Mars is one thing, and soon scientists are looking for ways to make contact with any life that might exist on the planet. “Message” from the Red Planet In 1899, Lowell’s theory of life on Mars received a “kick” from a prominent scientist: Nikola Tesla. Tesla, then a successful electrical engineer, claimed that he had detected an “inexplicable, faint” signal originating from Mars. Portrait of Nikola Tesla circa 1890. Photo: Wikimedia Commons While conducting experiments with his magnifier at high latitudes atop Pike Peak, Colorado Springs, Tesla claimed that he received “a message from another world, unknown and far away. “. What does that message say? According to Nikola Tesla, it is simply: “ONE – TWO – THREE”. A few years later, on a February 1901 day, in an interview with Collier’s Weekly, inventor Tesla announced that he could communicate with Martians by sending wireless messages to any point. on the “Red Planet”. This is a strange statement, because the successful transmission of radio messages on Earth has only become a reality since December of that year. Tesla doesn’t know what the aliens might look like, but he believes they have adapted to living conditions on Mars. Like Lowell, he suggested that “it is possible that in a frozen planet, such as the presumed conditions on our Moon, intelligent beings could still reside, within it, if not within it. on the surface”. To many people, when humans can receive messages from Mars, we can also send messages, that seems reasonable. In 1909, there were attempts to find a contact with life on Mars. Harvard professor William Henry Pickering proposed sending planetary light signals through a series of reflections produced by a network of 50 giant mirrors. The flashes would continue to flash for several years, allowing the Martians time to develop the necessary means to respond. Professor Pickering’s giant mirror illustration for sending signals to Mars. Photo: Library of Congress “In the hope of receiving such signals again, we must of course assume that Martians, if they exist, have telescopes, eyes, etc., just like humans have on this Earth.” Mr. Pickering said. But the Harvard professor’s plan cost $10 million, and no one wanted to fund it.

At work, Ms. Tam is always highly appreciated by department heads for her enthusiasm and responsibility at work. Sharing with reporters, Ms. Tam said that while working at the company, she always successfully completed the tasks assigned by her superiors.

These drugs are quite expensive, there are pills worth nearly 200,000 VND, but in order to reduce the disease, you can only rely on supportive drugs. During the epidemic, medicine was not available at the pharmacies at the hospital and outside, there were days when I had to wait for a long time at Bach Mai Hospital to be able to buy the medicine “- Ms. Tam shared. She is sick herself, but Tam always tries to cultivate and take care of her family’s happiness. Due to her husband’s unstable job, not fixed time, she also often has to work shifts, so she had to send her children to her grandparents to take care of. Knowing that grandparents at home work hard to take care of their grandchildren, so she and her husband also try to work hard to have money to send back to grandparents and save money for future life. Understanding the sacrifices and hardships of Tam’s wife and husband, Nguyen Van Thao, besides working outside, also takes advantage of his free time to help his wife in daily life. Perhaps seeing his wife sick often, thin and sick, he always competes for work, never letting his wife work hard. “He always spends time helping out with housework with his wife, doesn’t mind daily tasks such as cooking, cleaning the house… Although his job is not stable, he still overcomes difficulties to rise up, always encouraging his great wife. trying to cure diseases and earn money to send back to my hometown to my grandparents to raise their children,” Tam confided. Although they have to be far away from the loving arms of their parents, the two children of Tam and her husband always maintain good academic records so that their parents can rest assured in their work. Currently, the eldest son of Ms. Tam and her husband is in 5th grade, and the younger daughter is in 2nd grade. Every day, after dinner, the two brothers tell each other to study together, not letting grandparents remind , worry. For 4 consecutive years, her eldest son has won the title of excellent student. The young daughter also won the title of good student in 2019-2020. “Because of circumstances, my wife and I have to be away from our children. I just hope that the children will understand, study hard and listen to their grandparents so that the couple can work with peace of mind “- Mrs. Tam said sadly. Knowing that parents on both sides of the country will have a harder time without their children, so Tam and her husband often take advantage of the holiday time to encourage everyone. Every time she goes back to her hometown, seeing her family together, healthy parents on both sides, her children studying hard and doing well, Tam completely forgets about fatigue and illness. For Ms. Tam, happiness is simply after a day of work, returning to the motel room and seeing her well-behaved children, healthy family on both sides. Despite many difficulties, Ms. Hoang Thi Tam always overcomes all circumstances to fulfill all the tasks assigned by her superiors and is a good woman of the family. In particular, in the locality and temporary residence, Ms. Tam’s family always has a healthy, simple, friendly lifestyle, and is loved by neighbors, so Hoang Thi Tam’s family has been established by the Labor Union. Hanoi City is honored as the typical family of workers, officials and workers nationwide in the period 2016-2020, honored and rewarded by the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor.

The mystery of the Faust ship in 1968 – Part 2: Disappearing for the second time despite being seen by the ship and providing food for the Faust to find its way back. The mystery of the Faust ship in 1968 – Part 3: the sailor lay down on the deck and the voyage was not intact. As the only ship in the world to disappear three times in a row, the story of Faust can be described as eerie and terrifying. Countless experts and scholars have delved into this case, but no one has been able to come up with convincing hypotheses. As an ordinary person, after reading the whole process of the case, there are probably a few questions in everyone’s mind as follows: Why would a seasoned sailor go astray on his first voyage in calm waters? When they were first rescued, why did all four turn down an invitation to escort them from the British ship? After getting enough items, why did the ship and its crew disappear for the second time? Whose body was found on the ship? Where did the other three go, are they alive or dead? What does the missing 28 pages of the diary contain? What does the so-called “God-ordained destiny” in Julio’s last words mean? Why did this ship that has been floating at sea for more than two months suddenly sank while being towed back to port, leaving the secret of Faust never solved? Are the statements of the two ocean-going ships that contacted Faust true and reliable? Before attempting to answer these questions, we should consider the existing explanations and the possibilities involved: 1. Illegal Migration Spain remained under the Franco dictatorship in 1968. Franco won the Spanish Civil War and took power in 1939. Because of his ideological closeness to the Axis Empire, Spain provided a great deal of private assistance to Nazi Germany during the Second World War, and it was because of these acts that Spain was subsequently isolated from the European countries. Therefore, the development of Spain in the 1940s and 1950s lagged behind, the economy declined, the people lived in extreme poverty. Along with Franco’s rule with an “iron fist” in the country and the strong suppression of all opposition, many Spaniards felt despair and had to leave their homeland, emigrating abroad. Especially for islands like the Canary Islands, the economic situation is worse. At that time, South America was in a period of relatively rapid development because it had not been affected too much by the Second World War. With the same language, it became the first choice of many immigrants. Spain. Julio, a member of the ship, has a brother who has moved to Venezuela – was the only variable on this voyage, was he the culprit instigating the crew to attempt the transatlantic? The answer is definitely not. First of all, the Spanish economy was on the rise since the 1960s. This was an emerging economy in the world at that time and was second only to Japan in speed. Tourism in the Canary Islands was very prosperous at that time. The family economy of the four members on board, in general, is not so bad, at least there is no reason for them to flee their homeland in this extreme way. Second, even if they had a reason to leave, it would be completely stupid to cross the vast Atlantic with a few dozen kilograms of fruit and a few liters of soft drink because they would die of starvation before reaching their destination . Even after they were first rescued, the British ship had provided them with sufficient supplies, it was completely impossible to support their boat to South America. However, there are still strong advocates of illegal migration – none other than the victims’ families, who would rather believe that their loved ones met another ship and were saved in the process. and went to South America, living in anonymity rather than thinking that these crews perished at sea. 2. Pirates This conjecture is very bold. That is when the British ship encountered the Faust for the first time, the four people on board were not the original crew, but pirates disguised as them. The crew members were actually captured or killed by them. This conjecture may explain why the crew were reluctant to decline the large ship’s offer after being rescued for the first time, insisting instead on resupply to return on their own. Not long after setting sail for the first time, Faust encountered a pirate ship, which easily robbed the fishing boat in a short period of time, but when the pirates found there was no cargo or treasure. On board the ship, the crew was dragged out to sea to be executed and the ship set out to sea to create false evidence of a shipwreck. When the British ship appeared, to cover up their crimes, the pirates chose to pose as the crew for help, and continued to carry out their evil plan after receiving the help. After all, the British ship only contacted Spanish authorities by radio, no one could determine if the rescued person was the real crew. And this also explains the mystery of Julio’s diary. When Julio was held captive by the pirates, he knew he didn’t have much time left, so he wrote in a note. The pirates kept his suicide note, but tore up the rest of the content. This conjecture also has many contradictions, first of all, there were no pirates in the waters of West Africa at the time, as there were no merchant ships worth plundering, the mainland was essentially desert and land. barren. The Spanish islands, with the exception of fishing, have essentially no other wealth from small crates of agricultural produce. And considering the size of the ship, it was unlikely that pirates would target such a small fishing boat as a target for robbery. As noted by Luciano Ascione, who discovered the Faust for the second time, there was no visible damage or traces of fighting on board the Faust – this indirectly negates the pirates’ plunder. And if the pirates hijacked ships and were discovered by the British ship, what about their original pirate ship? It is worth mentioning that the captain and crew of the British ship were questioned by the Spanish army in Rotterdam, and by the Dutch army after the second disappearance of the Faust, and they also released photos. of the victims to investigate whether they lied about Faust’s rescue. Facts have proven that the testimony of the captain and crew is completely reliable, and their rescue activities on board the Faust are also worthy of recognition. 3. Illegal transportation This argument stems from the fact that the income of seafarers at that time was very meager. But life for the crew of the Faust at that time was also not very rich. Therefore, some people suspect that when transporting goods and fishing, they also transport some illegal exhibits such as guns, drugs or other prohibited goods. When their crime was discovered by Julio, they sailed out to sea to kill him, but as a result, they lost their way back, and eventually died of thirst at sea. To prove this statement, the crew of the ship Anna Di Maio discovered the Faust for the second time, officer Luciano Ascione discovered the goods and belongings on board when they boarded the ship for the first time, and at the same time they discovered the truth recorded in Julio’s notes. In order to embezzle the goods, they purposely sank the Faust, falsely claimed that it had accidentally sunk during towing, and deleted the contents of the smuggling log. Except for Julio, the bodies of others were also thrown into the sea. Compared to encountering pirates, this conjecture was even more impossible. Not to mention these sailors are smuggling drugs and guns, who will they sell to, because the island where they live is a rather poor island, if their trip that day is really for a some illegal activities, why would they let strangers like Julio board the train? Doesn’t this greatly increase their chances of being exposed? And how many valuable smuggled items hidden on a small fishing boat could cause all the crew on a large merchant ship like Anna Di Maio to take risks and make up such stories. ? 4. Nazi Germany The 1960s were the height of the Mossad’s revenge campaign – Israel against the remnants of Nazi Germany, and the remaining Nazis in Europe sought refuge in South America via Spain. . It is said that a Nazi officer on the island of Hierro was discovered by the famous Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal. To avoid being hunted, he quietly hid in the Faust while it was docked and threatened the crew with his gun to head for the Atlantic. Regarding this conjecture, perhaps the people of the island are really imaginative, this plot if true, would probably be made into a blockbuster crime movie, after all, only in the movie can it be. That possibility can happen, because the average person cannot rely on a small fishing boat and meager amounts of water and food to cross thousands of kilometers of ocean. 5. Cold War Mossad and Nazis alone were not enough, another conspiracy theory even suggested that at that time American and Soviet submarines were fighting in the Atlantic Ocean, in order to avoid disaster, the Faust was forced to deviate and in the end they were still killed. And the question is why did these brave sailors not clarify the situation after they were first saved, and did not want to go home on the British ship? 6. Poisoning It is speculated that they were poisoned by gas leaks, food poisons or other things that disturbed the minds of these crew members, making it impossible for them to find their way home. But in fact, the toxin that can manipulate the mind to make people unable to find their way back but still awake in front of others has not been found on Earth.

Sink over time Go Boi, a famous harbor, a bustling fishing village more than 400 years ago. This is the place where in the novel series “Con River in the flood season”, writer Nguyen Mong Giac describes it as an important saltwater harbor, an important focal point of communication with Dang Trong – Dang Ngoai, a place to receive migrations. From the North to the South, it was the place (along with the Thi Nai estuary) of the Tay Son Dynasty that sent naval troops to conquer the South to defeat the North. A tributary of the Con River flows at the foot of Banh It tower The side of Duong Long tower. Photo: TRUNG PHUONG Late in the afternoon, standing on Go Boi bridge watching the water of the Con River billowing, feeling strangely buoyant, seeing historical lines flowing layer by layer across the bridge. Remember the folk song that your mother used to lull you: “One day, no one will leave anyone / Only embroidery should be sharpened to make needles”, the lullaby voice sounds like a sad, sad Nam song. How much water has passed from the Con River over Go Boi Bridge, over the years has buried this historic saltwater harbour. And maybe it’s not economical so people don’t need to dredge it, just let it sink over time. But the image of the gourd sailing across the country, from the Central to the North, to the South, even through Nam Vang (Cambodia)… will never fade in the memories of the people in my hometown. Going to Go Boi, one must remember poets Xuan Dieu and Han Mac Tu. Xuan Dieu was born here, used to write love poems about Go Boi and Tuy Phuoc: “Sleeping in Tuy Phuoc is to not sleep at night The crickets stay awake with me all year round Wake up the stars, wake up the branches At night, the homeland loves the scent of the land.” Xuan Dieu could not sleep because simply: “Can’t sleep because the strong wind blowing from the sea keeps reminding / When my mother was born / I breathed the fish sauce of thousands of Go Boi…”. According to Hoai Thanh – Hoai Chan in “Vietnamese poets”, poets living in Binh Dinh are often haunted by the moonlight. The moon in Binh Dinh was strangely beautiful, mysterious or strange, inspired by Che Lan Vien, Quach Tan, Han Mac Tu, Yen Lan… Even later, Van Cao went to Quy Nhon to play and discovered Quy Nhon beach. like a half moon: “Half moon/Night/Lying on the sea sand…”. Most of the talented Vietnamese poets and artists who have met in Quy Nhon, all love the mysterious moon, meditate in Binh Dinh, hanging loosely on the lonely Cham towers. Even Trinh Cong Son is still haunted by the ancient towers, “hearing the autumn leaves and the rain rustling the little heels…” (Old Diem). Watching the magical moon Han Mac Tu also lived in Go Boi, because here is still the grave of the poet Han’s mother. It is said that at that time, the mother and son of the Han poets went to Go Boi to cure leprosy for Korea but in the end failed, the mother was lying eternally in Go Boi, the child was lying down watching the fanciful Binh Dinh moon in Ghenh Rang… read documents that know Han poet has known Xuan Dieu since then, when Han Mac Tu wrote to Xuan Dieu: “I sent you my collection of poems, because reading your poems, I find my pain is greatly relieved”. The land of Go Boi also once harbored the famous poet Han Mac Tu. And his best and most painful poems were written in this land. Go to Go Boi, look back up the Banh It tower, up to Do Ban citadel, remember the poets Yen Lan, Che Lan Vien – the names that make up the famous “Ban Thanh four friends”. Yen Lan is not only famous for “Ben My Lang”, he also has many other important contributions in the process of modern Vietnamese poetry. In the memoir “Yen Lan – remember you forever” (Van Hoc Publishing House – 2001) by Mrs. Nguyen Thi Lan – the wife of the poet Yen Lan – has quoted Che Lan Vien’s opinion: “Yen Lan is talented, talented. special and very soon”. It is not because of friendship that Che Lan Vien appreciates Yen Lan so highly. Before 1935, when New Poetry was still a toddler, Yen Lan had unique creations: “Mourning triangle sails about her resting quietly The rhythm of delaying harmonizes to pat the island far away”. Or describe the afternoon sun of Sam Son: “Empty far away The roof is dumbfounded, poetic and touching Afternoon pigeon wings incubated all over the manor.” “Sorrow triangle”, “tempo of delaying harmony”, “poetry of stone carving”, “afternoon of pigeons” – language structures, shimmering images interwoven magically, as if Yen Lan just wrote yesterday or today. Che Lan Vien is from Quang Tri but studied and grew up in Do Ban, Quy Nhon. In 1937, Che Lan Vien published a collection of poems “Dieu Ruan” that shocked the piano. In an article, Yen Lan once mentioned this collection of poems: “In the afternoon, Che Lan Vien and I often go upstairs to the East Thanh gate of Binh Dinh to admire the scenery and discuss poetry. Cham and Cham towers should discuss and write something together. Then Che Lan Vien published the volume “Diem Ruan” and me with the collection “The Well of Chaos” consisting of 28 poems written about the Chiem nuns…”. Han Mac Tu once read this book of poetry and asked Yen Lan why it was not a “well” (abandoned well), but “chaos”? Yen Lan asserts that it is a “well of chaos” (understood in the sense of chaos…). After reading the draft of this poem, Han Mac Tu was inspired to write the song “Moon commits suicide”: “Cold wells! Cold wells Why is no one good I heard that autumn hides here… Chaos, chaos, oh well chaos I’m panicking, I’m panicking Jump into the well to pick up the moon.” The song “Moon commits suicide”, Yen Lan planned to print in his book “The Chaos Well” as a preface, but unfortunately the poetry book was lost and Yen Lan’s poetic face seemed to be defective. In the last years of her life, Yen Lan also squeezed herself to make the quartet genre more attractive and more modern. With more than 400 quartet songs, Yen Lan is evaluated: Among the few great masters of modern Vietnamese quartet poetry, Yen Lan belongs to the “godfather” category (Truc Thong). Looking back at me Also, poet Nguyen Xuan Sanh was born in Da Lat but from a young age he studied at Quy Nhon National School (old), then moved to Hanoi. At the age of 15 (younger than Che Lan Vien when he was 16 years old when he published “Dieu Ruan”), Xuan Sanh released his epic “Lost Species”, with innovative poems of the type now commonly known as “postmodernism”. modern day”, breaking the standards of traditional poetry, with strange and “fragrant” sentences: “The white wind will smell the willow-shaped season / Far away from the pale green sad blue path…”. Now go to Go Boi to enjoy the coolness of the East Sea breeze, to look back into the past. Suddenly looking upstream, remember the castles and citadels of the Cham people, of the heroic Tay Son dynasty; looking down to the sea, remembering the rowboats that were horizontal and vertical for a while; remember the ships of the Portuguese and Spanish docked at Nuoc Man sea, now there is Xuan Phuong church, Lonely Song Village… And looking back at me, my age is already “sixteen years old”… Down there, how much water of the Con River is still flowing through Go Boi Bridge… Tuy Phuoc, February 2021

An employee scans and checks products in a Tiki warehouse in Ho Chi Minh City. (Photo: Bloomberg) Crossing the crowded streets of Ho Chi Minh City in a Honda, Ho Duc Quang carries toys, books and other packages to deliver to Tiki.vn customers. Quang, 25, needs to be quick, as Tiki promises to deliver in 2 hours. He uses AirPods to notify customers of his arrival, but there is one thing that slows down this shipper: Quang has to wait for customers to open the package, confirm the correct goods before departing for the next trip. It is a mandatory operation for those who do not trust online sellers. Quang’s speedy deliveries between the city of 9 million people are just part of a campaign to win over customers, many of whom shop online for the first time due to the pandemic. Winning isn’t easy where only about a third of adults have a bank account and less than 5% have a credit card. Most shopping at convenience stores, traditional markets. Although Euromonitor International estimates that e-commerce will only account for 3% of Vietnam’s retail market in 2020, the lowest in Southeast Asia, the potential of the market is extremely attractive. According to a report by Google, Temasek, Bain & Co, Vietnam’s digital economy is predicted to reach US$52 billion by 2025, an increase of 29% compared to 2020. Competition for customers Startups backed by Warburg Pincus, Goldman Sachs, JD.com or Shopee, Amazon are all targeting the Vietnamese middle class. From 2016 to the first half of 2020, investors poured $1.9 billion into the domestic online sector. Mr. Ralf Matthaes, Managing Director of Infocus Mekong Research, assessed that Vietnam is in the early stages of becoming a digital society with a young and technology-loving population. Therefore, these companies have to compete with each other to provide services. The government has set a target of online shopping to account for 10% of Vietnam’s retail sales by 2025. The regulator wants to reduce cash payments to create a more transparent, modern economy through increased non-payment of transactions. cash for public services and improve the regulatory framework for electronic payments. The consortium led by Alibaba and Baring Private Equity Asia will invest $400 million in exchange for a 5.5% stake in CrownX of Masan retail group. Under the agreement, Masan will cooperate with Lazada – Alibaba’s e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia. Kenny Ho, Southeast Asia Investment Director of Alibaba, affirmed that the combination of Alibaba’s online retail expertise, Lazada’s Vietnam platform, and Masan’s offline network will be a powerful catalyst for the company’s success. modernization of Vietnam’s retail market. In January, M-Service, the startup behind the Momo e-wallet, raised more than $100 million from an investment group, including Warburg Pincus. For the first time in their shopping life, Vietnamese people are “encircled” by the form of customer-first retailing that is common in developed economies. Trust of customers Online retailers are trying to woo shoppers wary of scam stores that don’t offer return policies. According to economist Nguyen Tri Hieu, “Vietnamese people don’t trust what they can’t see. Usually, they need to know what they’re buying. They have to smell it and touch it.” So e-commerce sites raced to launch marketing campaigns, offering discounts on everything from AirPods to Samsung washing machines. E-wallet startup that offers coupons. Tiki applies a refund policy of up to 30 days. Nguyen Thi Kim Chi, 31, who works for an entertainment website, said that 70% off and customer-oriented items attract her. Buyers are empowered to evaluate products and services online. If normal, they often have to go to the store complaining about the low quality of the product and there may be quarrels but nothing is corrected. According to Mr. Matthase, the epidemic will boost digital retail as 30% more Vietnamese will shop for everything from food to electronics online in 2020. Retail shifting According to Jeffrey Perlman, managing director of Warburg Pincus in Singapore, Vietnam’s retail market changes faster than other markets. Tiki is currently the largest domestic e-commerce platform in the country. Software engineer Tran Ngoc Thai Son built Tiki in 2010 from $5,000. Mr. Son writes code, buys 100 English books from Amazon, and delivers it by himself by motorbike. Currently, Tiki has 3,100 employees and a state-of-the-art logistics operations system overseen by Henry Low, former head of Amazon and Coupang. Along with the company’s growth is the effort to attract customers. Mr. Son deployed a system to filter counterfeit goods and sided with customers. For example, if there is a defect in a newly purchased phone, the customer wants to return it, they will support 100%. If the seller is not okay with this decision, Tiki will shut down their account. From diapers to beer According to Crunchbase, investors like Sumitomo, JD.com have invested $192.5 million in Tiki. Mr. Son anticipates more rounds of funding and prepares for an IPO. According to Mr. Low, Tiki handles less than 2 million orders per month. Employees busy arranging everything from diapers and diapers to Corona beer in the 10,000-square-foot fulfillment center. Tiki applies artificial intelligence and robots capable of transporting 800kg products to speed things up. Thanks to the logistics system, Mr. Son aims to transport 500,000 products in 2 hours, up from 200,000 currently, helping Tiki achieve its profit target. Du Lam (According to Bloomberg)

Everyone longs for a “paradise” free from disease, war, and oppression, although this paradise may not exist, but with the development of science, technology and society, we are getting closer. to heaven in the eyes of the ancients. We will also be curious about the future of human society. There are countless works trying to construct an impossibly beautiful perspective for exploring such issues, most of which of course have pessimistic results. In 1798, the British demographer and economist – Malthus showed in his thesis “Principle of Population” that the population increased exponentially but food production increased linearly. If things continued like this, it would reach a point where the population could no longer grow. The hidden content of this theory is that population growth does not necessarily bring prosperity, but can cause socioeconomic stagnation, hence the so-called “Malthusian trap”. After the end of World War II, the world gradually returned to prosperity, the United States ushered in a period of population explosion with a series of babies after the war, and with it, pessimistic views began to emerge. . Some people think that “overpopulation” can lead to a crisis, which in the short term will deplete resources for survival. This mentality of the majority of the population was immediately drawn to Malthus’ ideals. However, the success of the Green Revolution made Malthus’s model no longer valid, as food production spiked. However, the fear surrounding population explosion and its consequences still lingers here and there. Accordingly, a series of experiments demonstrating the effects of population explosion emerged. But a series of animal experiments seem to have yielded surprising results. Human estimates of resources for survival may still be too optimistic, but the real crisis coming from the population itself will seem obvious. The most prominent of which is the experiment of John B. Calhoun, an American expert specializing in the study of ethology and human behavior. John B. Calhoun and the Norwegian Rats. Calhoun was particularly interested in studying birds during his early years, and one of his studies was published in the journals of the Tennessee Bird Society at the age of 15. After that, Calhoun studied from bachelor’s degree to doctorate, and his research direction also gradually turned to animal behavior. Since his doctoral thesis was to study the 24-hour rhythm of the Norwegian rat, Calhoun’s work after graduation was also closely related to this rat. In 1947, Calhoun, then working at Johns Hopkins University, asked a neighbor to buy a piece of land less than 1,000 square meters to use as a laboratory. Then he decided to build an “artificial rat paradise” so that his rodents could live carefree. In the end, Calhoun named the place “Rat City”. With this amount of land, the area of ​​​​the mouse city is not small, it is estimated that it can accommodate 5,000 rats, Calhoun also provides adequate food and water for his mouse subjects, while minimizing the maximum. the impact of disease and predators. Rats are only allowed to operate within the “city”. However, the development of the mouse city was not as smooth as imagined, even a bit bizarre. Calhoun initially included five pregnant female mice, but the reproductive rates of mice in this range were not as high as he had imagined. The number of rats in the study area never exceeded 200, and it stabilized at about 150, much smaller than the number of rats this “artificial paradise” could accommodate. Live rats cluster together in groups, and feed only at specific spots. This may have been the first experiment that brought Calhoun’s attention to population density. Five years after the failure of the rat city project, Calhoun joined the US National Department of Mental Health (NIMH) and was in a better position to design experiments on mice. At that time, Calhoun had a small team working with him, they improved the experimental environment on the mice as well as specially designed the breeding area so that the “artificial paradise” could work better. . The farming area is now only about 4.5 m long, 3 m wide, divided into 4 areas separated by electric fences, each area is equipped with unlimited food and water sources, there is also a multi-storey “apartment” that rats can enter in a spiral. The 4 areas separated by the grid are actually not completely isolated from each other, they are connected in pairs by 3 small bridges. Specifically, these four regions can be considered as four quadrants in the Cartesian coordinate system, where only a direct bridge exists that causes the path to move between the beginning – area 1 and the end – area 4 creating into a U shape. Calhoun designed a special feeding system, where solid food is kept behind nets and the collection process is not easy. In the first litter, but the residents here are reasonably arranged with a total of 32 mice, the number of males and females is equal and they are all adult rats that have reached reproductive age. According to the plan, the mice in the habitat would breed quickly, and the number would exceed the 40 limit for a short time, but Calhoun wouldn’t stop the experiment immediately. He would let the rats spawn to 80 and watch them. At first, the female rats were evenly distributed in the four regions, but when the fights between the males ended, the stronger males took over more females. Due to the design of four areas and three connecting bridges, a large number of low-status male rats will be concentrated in areas two and three, while the first and fourth areas become “swarms” of mice Males have higher status. At the bridge, the rats built their own barriers that prevented individuals from walking freely. Weak mice went to cages 2 and 3 to feed and could not return, only a small number of male rats remained in cages 1 and 4. At this point, the strange thing happened, the low-status male rat living in areas 1 and 4 – despite living among the females – had no desire to mate with the opposite sex. Instead they approached higher-status male rats, but the high-status males didn’t deny it either. The number of mice in the barn for 2-3 days is dense due to the continuous appearance of new litters of mice that “go and do not return”. At the same time, the rats’ eating behavior changed as they became accustomed to Calhoun’s feeding device. They refuse to eat alone, and only engage in net scavenging activities when and only in the presence of their own. The pressure from the population, from feeding (despite the abundance of food) creates a pattern that Calhoun calls a “behavioural sink”, roughly translated as “behavior alienation”; Rats begin to develop harmful behaviors. Under the influence of behavioral alienation, female rats have increased social interaction and decreased ability to care for offspring – and because young rats rely heavily on their mothers, herd numbers are at risk of decline. Whenever female mice move their nests, they often leave behind a large number of young mice. And yet, at the time of estrus, because female rats live in closed cages, they cannot escape from the males, and the brutal mating behavior in the cage affects the young even more. At one point, the mortality rate in the rat cage reached 96%. In dominant males, behavioral corruption causes them to become hysterical, frequently attacking their cagemates and even their young. In the vulnerable group of mice, Calhoun found traits that could separate mice into three distinct groups: The first type is called “pansexual”, they do not participate in competitions for social status, but will try to mate with any rat possible regardless of gender. or age. Not many individuals refuse this behavior. The latter, which Calhoun calls a “somnambulist”, is slow-moving, barely interacts with other rats, does not participate in social activities, and very few other individuals interact with them. ., but they are extremely fond of taking care of their appearance and are never violent. The third category, the group that most surprised Calhoun was named the “probes”. These are hyperactive individuals, constantly looking for opportunities to mate with rats of both sexes. Even if they were attacked by higher-status male rats, they would still frantically pursue females in heat. Once they reached the slums and found the young left behind, the fugitives found another source of nourishment. Continue: The end of the gruesome experiment, and the premise of the next one.

Customers visit a Huawei store in Shenzhen. (Photo: Reuters) Using its own mobile operating system means Huawei is no longer dependent on Google Android. The US has banned Google from providing technical support for new Huawei phone models and blocked access to the Google Mobile Services developer suite. It is not clear if the Chinese company will introduce a new smartphone at the same time as Harmony, or if Harmony will be updated on models sold on the market. Harmony OS can only partially mitigate the impact of US sanctions on Huawei’s mobile division. The US ban in 2019 also barred Huawei from accessing important US-origin technology, hindering its ability to design its own chips and buy components from outside manufacturers. Once the largest smartphone manufacturer in the world, Huawei currently ranked 6th globally with a market share of 4% in the first quarter. The administration of former US President Donald Trump accused the Chinese telecommunications giant of threatening national security. This week, Huawei founder Nham Chinh Phi urged employees to “dare to lead the world in software”, moving into an area where the US cannot influence. The company needs to attract more software experts from abroad for this effort. Du Lam (According to Reuters)

Julie Dang’s journey to make coffee a part of who she is. Julie was initially unimpressed with coffee – a dark, bitter drink sold on the streets of Saigon. Until her freshman year of college, a foreign friend offered her a machine-made espresso. “I have never had a coffee that is both fatty and fragrant in such a pleasant way and gives such strong energy.” Thinking that a person who does not like strong coffee like me can drink it, maybe many people also like it. So the college freshman decided to start a business with a self-designed coffee truck. In 2007 – 2008, Julie’s “peddler” coffee machine is still a very new and rare model in Saigon. This business “mission” costs hundreds of millions of dong, but the revenue increases very quickly. However, Julie at that time had many other things to care about, including studying, so the coffee truck also closed after a year. Julie Dang is a judge in a competition about Sense of taste. Intoxicated with coffee, Julie plunges into exploring it. She confided that she is only happy when studying, researching and teaching about coffee. She has poured a lot of money into courses around the world, with leading experts in the field. The more she studied and studied, the more fascinated she became. In Julie’s concept, coffee is not just a drink but a combination of all fields related to human cultural life. When the world changes, people’s lives change, so does coffee culture. After many years of wandering, Julie finally “pocketed” a good amount of knowledge and wanted to share it with people with the same passion. Therefore, Julie said that she loves teaching at Vietnam Barista School more than doing business. “I am happy to see students learn many new things about coffee. From their feedback, I see myself again on the journey to coffee, it is a feeling of joy and emotion every time I open a new door, sometimes overwhelmed because it is so wonderful.” . Julie Dang teaches coffee roasting techniques. Julie transmits her knowledge and passion to her students and vice versa, their eagerness to learn and progress stimulates her to want to replicate her sharing model even more. Julie remembers a time when she lost her voice because she was “drunk” to communicate, like the time she trained on “Coffee take away” for more than 10,000 students for 3 months. “But in return, I feel like I have a lot of new energy,” she smiled. Going to many places, drinking a lot of coffee in different countries, Julie appreciates the coffee beans of her homeland. She is also proud that Vietnam produces one of the best quality coffees in the world. However, when working with foreign partners, Julie always feels like her country’s coffee beans are not respected in international politics. Once she was a judge in an Asian coffee contest, she felt more deeply about the world’s view of her country. “I don’t feel proud when people think I’m a judge from Japan, Korea or a country other than Vietnam. I feel proud when they look down on both the contestants and the Vietnamese coffee makers. From that moment on, I set a goal for myself to become the best in international coffee competitions, as a contestant as well as a judge. More than that, I have to become a coffee teacher in other countries, not just in my homeland,” Julie confided. Since 2017, Julie has become the youngest technical judge and chief judge at world championships in sensory subjects in Korea, Latte Art in Singapore, Myanmar, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines… She also became the President of the International Association of Coffee Training Schools, a member of the World Specialty Coffee Association, the European Coffee Association, a lecturer of the Korea Coffee Research and Development Institute, etc. In big competitions, Julie wants to introduce Vietnamese coffee culture through the most beautiful coffee products with the natural scent of her homeland. But when she returned to her daily work, Julie was not too picky about enjoying coffee. For her, a good cup of coffee is about achieving a balance between cultural, culinary and spiritual factors. So, she can enjoy espresso made with the best machine and also be happy to drink a cup of natural flavor filter coffee. Even a cup of coffee brewed with a racket did not reach any technical indicators, but Julie still found it extremely delicious to enjoy with a hot banana cake at a resident’s house in Bali, in the midst of vast nature. big on a beautiful day. Coffee in each place is delicious in its own way, because it is associated with the people and culture of each land. Coffee beans have become a bridge connecting freely in the culture of enjoyment, independence and difference of peoples around the world. And people will feel happy when they understand their own feelings.

Photo: Tech Radar 1. Asus VivoBook 15 L510MA-DB02 Price: 256 USD Photo: Laptop Under Budget Asus VivoBook laptops all give users a tough, luxurious, and very attractive design. The back of this device is made of plastic, which makes this laptop model a good weight, easy to hold and carry. The overall design of the laptop is very harmonious with the curved edges and rounded corners that look soft and close to the user. Despite being in the cheap segment, Asus VivoBook 15 L510MA-DB02 still gives users a 15.6-inch screen with Full HD 1920×1080 resolution. Perhaps this is the most valuable point on this device. The ability to reproduce good colors along with the large screen provides a very good movie watching and working experience compared to other laptops in the same segment. This device is equipped with Intel Celeron N4020 processor with integrated Intel UHD graphics, making the laptop powerful enough to play games like Asphalt 9 and meet other everyday tasks well. The internal memory of this laptop is not too high, only 64GB. However, perhaps because of the large screen, the battery life of Asus VivoBook 15 is quite low, only 6 hours. It can be said that this is one of the best laptops worth buying in this price range. Photo: Laptop Under Budget 2. Acer Chromebook 314 Price: 278.99 USD Photo: Laptop Under Budget Acer Chromebook 314 was released with default configuration including Intel Cleron N4000 1.1Ghz chip, 4GB RAM and 14 inch HD LED screen with 1366 x 768 pixel resolution, 64GB eMMC drive. In general, with the low price, users cannot ask for a higher configuration. Acer Chromebook 314 still completely meets the common needs of basic users. This device possesses a simple design with the body wrapped in a metal frame creating certainty and elegance. The body also has a fairly large palm rest area to help users have a comfortable typing experience without hand fatigue. Although the machine size is quite large in the Chromebook line, the weight of this device is only about 1.7 kg. The Acer Chromebook 314 has an impressive battery life of up to 13 hours while surfing the web. More specifically, this device also possesses the ability to fast charge from 0-100% in less than 2 hours. Acer Chromebook 314 uses Chrome OS operating system with a huge application store on the Play Store. This device is equipped with a 14-inch screen that offers a much larger screen area than other Chromebooks. The image quality is probably only at the shoulder level, but the colors are reproduced very flattering, suitable for watching movies, editing photos.

Coach Zidane currently has one year left on his contract with Real. According to ABC news, until now BLD Real does not know if coach Zindae will continue to lead “White Vultures” next season because they have not had a clear discussion with the captain of the team. However, BLD Real’s view is that they still want Zidane to continue his current job. They even see coach Zidane as a strategic factor to realize the goal of luring French striker Kylian Mbappe of PSG to the Bernabeu. It should be known that Zidane and Mbappe have had a very close relationship for many years. As a kid, Mbappe even stayed at coach Zidane’s house when he visited Madrid for the first time. Earlier, it was reported that Zidane is having his last season working for Real. He plans to move and the Real Board of Directors has planned to find a replacement. According to the Spanish media, president Florentino Perez is considering appointing former striker Raul Gonzalez (currently leading Real Castilla’s youth team) to lead the first team. If the above scenario happens, then Raul is on the right path and the path Zidane has taken in the past. In this season, coach Zidane’s reputation has been reduced because Real has been eliminated from the King’s Cup and Champions League. Particularly in the La Liga arena, Real is still competing with Atletico and Barca in the race to the championship, but the opportunity for the white team is not much. After 36 rounds, Real is currently ranked 2nd on the La Liga table with 2 points less than Atletico (78 compared to 80). This is not a big gap, but it is very difficult to fill in the context that the season only has 2 rounds left to finish.

At its 5,000-worker factory located in Shiga prefecture, Pansonic manufactures high-tech air conditioners with new features. It produces microscopic water droplets that fight against corona viruses and other viruses, bacteria and pollutants in the air. The technology that produces hydroxyl radicals, or atmospheric cleaners, is being used in cars, elevators, buses, and trains in Japan. Panasonic’s Ziaino air purifier sales tripled to more than $ 100 million during the Covid-19 period. The company sets a target of nearly $ 500 million in sales over the next five years. Ziaino has a high ability to disinfect and deodorize by creating hypochlorous acid. In an interview with Nikkei Asia, Mr. Shinada said that the company wants to leave the image of a disgraced television maker behind to focus on health-related products. The increase in sales is a sign of a happy revival for Panasonic’s 103-year-old home division. He does not hide his ambitions to become No. 1 globally or regionally in some areas. “We may not be as big as LG, but we can compete on profit margins. We want the rest of the world to know that Panasonic has been reborn, ”he told Nikkei Asia. This is the message Panasonic hopes investors will listen to. From April 1, Mr. Yuki Kusumi will replace Kazuhiro Tsuga as the company’s CEO after 9 years in office. During his tenure, Mr. Tsuga had to “clean up” the aftermath of the costly 2009 acquisition of Sanyo Electric, withdrew from the semiconductor industry, LCD panels, solar panels, and turned to components car, aviation. Panasonic wants to begin a new journey under the new CEO after he led a restructuring of the company’s auto division. Optimism is gradually spreading. Shares have risen more than 35% since the announcement of a leadership change in November 2020. On February 2, Panasonic raised its annual profit forecast for fiscal year 2020. The electric vehicle battery joint venture with Tesla is expected to be profitable for the first time since it opened in 2017. At the annual shareholder meeting in June 2020, Mr. Kusumi pointed out that many parts of Panasonic have low revenue. From the founder’s point of view, it means that Panasonic is not contributing as much to the community as it used to be. Konosuke Matsushita was the founder of Panasonic in 1918 without formal training. Mr. Matsushita once said that profit is the reward of giving to society, the mission of a manufacturer is to make products “cheap and plentiful like tap water”. Panasonic is the resurgent symbol of Japan in the post-war era. They manufacture and export household products like many other country companies. Although initially considered a second-class product, Panasonic has gradually gained international recognition for its quality. In the 1990s, Panasonic was a rival of Sony and Phillips in the global television market. In the mobile phone market, Panasonic also balances Motorola, Nokia and Ericsson. During the 12 months ending March 1991, they were the second most profitable company in Japan, behind only Toyota Motor and Asia’s leading consumer brand. But this giant did not adapt to the times and turned from a hero to the representative of Japan’s troubled industry. Over time, Panasonic lost its lead to Korean and Chinese rivals such as Samsung, LG, and TCL. The past two decades have been a battle that has turned the firm’s destiny. During most of that period, Panasonic’s operating profit margin remained below 5%. As of the end of December 2020, the rate was 4%, lower than 11% for Sony, 6.3% for Hitachi, and 5.1% for LG, according to data from Quick FactSet. Market value is only half of its 2006 peak and a quarter of Sony. Panasonic did not have a product that had great success on the world stage. While some are quite powerful, such as DVDs and video players with 17% market share, they are too small to support businesses that feed 250,000 people. In 2020, in Japan, Panasonic accounts for nearly 30% market share of household appliances, but globally only 2.5%, down from 2.8% in 2015. The company ranks 7, after Midea, Phillips, Haier, according to research firm Euromonitor. Even the market share of air conditioners, a strong product of Panasonic, in the past 5 years, only 4.1%, ranked 5th in the world, still according to Euromonitor data. Atul Goyal, director of research management at investment bank Jefferies, rated Panasonic “too diversified” and “too many products.” “I wish they focused first and reduced to a smaller scale, winning in 3 or 4 fields and developing them without looking anywhere else.” Other experts argue that the problem is more with marketing than with technology. In the global marketplace, marketing is important. Others commented that Panasonic in particular and Japanese electronics in general paid too much attention to technology without paying attention to convenience, ease of use, electronic features, and cost efficiency of the product. Panasonic is not alone in the transformation. Hitachi abandoned home appliances to focus on transportation and infrastructure. Sony re-formed an entertainment, image sensor and game consortium. Sharp sells itself to Taiwan’s Foxconn. New media reported that Panasonic is looking to acquire Blue Yonder, an AI company that monitors real-time supply chains and predicts demand, allowing for the optimization of inventory and logistics operations. Acquisition ambitions show that business services still play an important role in Panasonic’s bottom line, but once again questioned whether they are “overwhelmed”. After the news was released in March, the company’s shares fell 6%. Even Panasonic’s strategic partnership with Tesla hasn’t been smooth. Back in 2010, when Panasonic decided to invest $ 30 million in a startup, the electric car market was small and uncertain. In 2014, the company agreed to participate in the development of Tesla’s electric vehicle “big factory”. However, Panasonic hesitated at the idea of ​​expanding in 2018. It was not until August 2020 that they decided to step forward. The hesitation angered investors as Tesla turned the offer to other suppliers such as CATL in China, LG Chem in Korea and began to develop batteries on its own. According to analyst Goyal, Panasonic cannot even focus on a “good food” business. They should have invested more heavily, took risks, and actively expanded. In the context of a change in leadership, Panasonic adjusted and put the household division at the center. The department head believes they are regaining their “fighting spirit”. He admits that Panasonic needs to focus on areas of strength. “Working for people is this company’s original mission. That is what we want to focus on. Mr. Shinada emphasized that Panasonic must cut costs to make their prices more affordable to many foreign users. The decision to move the global home appliances division to China is an example. In China, Panasonic QR code-operated smart lockers are available at convenience stores and cafes in major cities, including the HeyTea tea chain, to serve customers without need. contact. These cabinets were installed at 98 HeyTea stores last year and are expected to grow to more than 500 this year, according to Tetsuro Homma, CEO of Panasonic China and Northeast Asia. Panasonic accounts for 30% of the Chinese frozen food display market with sales of around $ 500 million. Mr. Homma believes that the scale can be tripled, equivalent to the US market, which Panasonic is serving through the Hussmann branch. However, Panasonic’s business in China has never been easy. Its sales still stand at $ 7 billion, equivalent to 2% market share in the home appliance market, even though it was the first Japanese company to enter the country in 1987. According to Mr. Shinada, Southeast Asia is where Panasonic has a larger market share and a more solid foothold. He pledged to spend a lot of effort revitalizing the home appliances business in Southeast Asia like China. Panasonic still has to improve many things. Some analysts say that the recent rally in stock prices was purely due to the overall economy going up, not on the efforts of the company itself. CEO Tsuga admitted that when he revealed his retirement plan in November 2020. “It is very difficult to achieve growth with profits.” He places his hopes on Kusumi’s successor because “he can make harsh decisions even when others are reluctant to accept it”.

The brake pad is a part that needs to be replaced periodically Ask: I am using a 2010 Volkswagen Scirocco. Lately when I step on the brake pedal, the pedal is deeper than when I first bought it. Is it a sign of brake wear and must be replaced? Le Huyen Chi (Thanh Xuan, Hanoi) Reply: Based on the conditions described initially, it is possible to predict that the brake pads of the vehicle are worn out and it is time to replace them to ensure safety. For vehicles, brake pads are a very important part of reducing vehicle speed, ensuring safety. If the brake pads are worn deeply, it will directly affect the slowdown or stop the vehicle. How fast or slow the brake pads wear depends on the way each person runs. However, the brake pads will wear out faster when used by a car in crowded cities, where the brakes are always pressed, constantly checking due to traffic congestion. Conversely, if the road is open, wide, less using the brake, the brake pads will wear longer. Some signs of discernible brake pads wear such as: Brake pedal often hits the floor, when the brake has phenomenon of vehicle or steering wheel shaking, hissing noise or metal sounds colliding due to worn brake pads … Then, it can be found through the brake warning lights that light up on the dashboard. It is recommended that the brake pads need to be replaced periodically, usually for 2 years or 50,000km, whichever comes first. If you regularly check the brake or move continuously in crowded road conditions, the time to replace this part will be sooner. However, because the safety system is very important, when there are strange signs related to the brake system, it is best to immediately take the car to a warranty center, genuine maintenance or a reputable garage for inspection. and soonest remedy.

However, the umbilical cord is also a place that contains a lot of dirt and bacteria, can contain up to 1,400 bacteria. However, this does not mean regular umbilical hygiene is good, especially for pregnant mothers.

Illustration.

During pregnancy, the breast area is the place where the most changes appear on the mother’s body. The “double mountain” will increase in size drastically and the color will also become darker. Pregnant mothers should not do nipples stimulating behaviors, because it will cause many dangerous consequences for the fetus.

In 2008, the movie Changeling by Clint Eastwood recalls one of the most bizarre and tragic stories of the 1920s. Single mother Christine Collins says her 9-year-old son, Walter Collins, went missing in March 1928 at home. exclusively in Los Angeles City – USA.

Five months later, the police brought “Walter” back to Mrs. Christine but it was not Walter but another boy. Although the woman knew this was not her son, the Los Angeles City police dispelled Christine’s concerns, even accused her of failing to fulfill the mother’s responsibility and forced her to go to a mental hospital.

Walter Collins is never actually found. Some time later, authorities believed the boy was one of the victims of the convicted child murderer Gordon Stewart Northcott. Meanwhile, Northcott’s mother confessed to the murder of Walter.

So far, the boy’s body has not been found and no one knows what happened. It is also unclear why the police wanted to cover up the boy’s disappearance that they brought another child to Christine and tried to convince the woman and the public that it was Walter. .

11. Female students go to another planet?

Paula Jean Welden, 18 years old, is a second year student at Bennington College (USA). On December 1, 1946, Welden informed his roommate, Elizabeth Parker, that she had taken a hike but was unable to return.

Authorities immediately launched a search on the 435-kilometer Long Trail that cuts through Vermont to the Canadian border, where some local witnesses reported seeing the girl.

However, they did not find any clues. Police then received information from a Massachusetts waitress who had served an excited girl, matching Paula’s identity.

Upon learning of this information, Paula’s father disappeared for 36 hours, supposedly to “follow the trail of his daughter”, but it was the strange move that made him the No. 1 suspect in the Paula disappearance.

Next, stories about Paula’s home life began to spread, almost as unusual as her parents told the police. Apparently, Paula had not returned home on Thanksgiving the week before, seeming to feel anxious about her dissonance with her father. Paula’s father, on the other hand, theorized that his daughter was “distraught by liking a guy so he must be a suspect”.

A decade later, a local man in the town of Bennington, Vermont, twice told his friends that he knew where Paula’s body was buried. However, he couldn’t bring the police in ?! With no evidence of crime, no body and no forensic clue, the incident has become increasingly mysterious, including those related to the paranormal hypothesis.

12. Three people guarding the lighthouse

Photo: SHUTTERSTOCK

In 1900, the three lighthouses guarding the Flannan Islands, off the west coast of Scotland, suddenly disappeared in confusion. The lighthouse is overseen by a group of four including Thomas Marshall, James Ducat, Donald MacArthur and one person alternating from the shore.

On December 26, 1900, the fourth person took turns to the lighthouse but could not see the other 3 people. This person saw an overturned chair near the kitchen table. No body was found. It is believed that 3 people drowned, kidnapped by foreign agents, a ghost ship or giant sea monster. Until now, the secret is still buried.

13. The dog’s death bridge

The Overtoun Bridge, near Dumbarton – Scotland, seems to have the force of calling for dogs to plunge into death. Since the early 1960s, about 50 dogs have perished under this bridge and hundreds more have jumped down but survived. Below the Overtoun Bridge at an altitude of 15 m are jagged rocks.

The Scottish Association against Cruelty of Animals sent people to investigate, but to no avail. Scientifically, it can be said that dogs have the ability to “form suicidal intentions”. However, something was enticing them to jump off the bridge, often from the same spot and always on sunny days.

Many theories have come up, including the haunted bridge (which is popular after a local man threw his young son down the bridge and killed him in 1994), a weasel mark the area with a scent that attracts dogs or an unusual sound at the bridge that only dogs can hear.

14. “Monsters” are gray

The Big Gray Man is a mysterious creature believed to haunt the second highest peak in Scotland, Ben Macdui. In the native Scottish language, this creature is called Am Fear Liath Mòr.

Like the Yeti (snowman) of the Himalayas and the Big Foot (big-legged monster) in the Pacific Northwest, the Big Gray Man is confirmed to have been seen by several witnesses.

Photo: SHUTTERSTOCK

The appearance of this creature is not like a bear. Those who have seen the Big Gray Man describe it as tall (over 3 meters) and human-like with short hair, wide shoulders, and long arms. Nearly all of Big Gray Man’s appearances have been accompanied by the sound of gravel beneath its footsteps.

Scientists have yet to come up with an explanation for the Big Gray Man sightings and accompanying sound. Meanwhile, psychologists argue that those who are supposed to see and hear the Big Gray Man are in a state of physical and mental distress due to exhaustion or feeling alone.

15. The occult colony of Roanoke

In 1587, John White led a group of people from England to colonize on Roanoke Island, located in a chain of islands today known as the Outer Banks, North Carolina – USA.

White then leaves to find more supplies. But when he returned three years later, he found the colony abandoned, in which all houses and structures were carefully dismantled.

Photo: SHUTTERSTOCK

Before leaving Roanoke Island, White instructed the group from England that if they were captured by force, they had to carve a cross into a nearby tree but there was no cross. The only clue is from “Croatoan”, the name of an indigenous tribe allied with Britain. White understood this to mean that the group had moved to Croatoan Island (now known as the Hatteras).

Investigations conclude that the group was “slaughtered by the Powhatan tribe” but there is no archaeological evidence for this. Conducting a recent review of official sources, it was discovered that an earlier group of people might have been slaughtered rather than White’s.

Some hypotheses suggest that they and the Croatoans or local tribes have merged, but so far no evidence of DNA has been found to help identify their descendants. Scientists are still unable to explain this ocean mystery.

16. Circleville letter writer

In 1976, residents of Circleville City, Ohio – USA, received anonymous letters. They were postmarked from the city of Columbus in the same state, filled with harsh words.

The text of the letter reminds one of the alleged relationship between the school bus driver Mary Gillespie and the superintendent. A letter was sent to Mr. Ron, Mary’s husband, threatening his life if he does not end his love for his wife.

By 1977, Mr. Ron was killed in a suspicious car crash, including shooting. However, the local police chief said that Mr. Ron’s death was just an accident. After that, Circleville City residents began receiving letters accusing the sheriff of covering up the incident.

Letters continued throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, even after Ron’s sister’s husband, Paul Freshour, was found guilty of “writing letters and trying to kill Mary with a single gun. pistol”.

However, even when Mr. Freshour went to jail, letters still appeared. Mr. Freshour even received a letter from among them. In 1994, Mr. Freshour was released and died in 2012. The true identity of “Circleville Writer” remains in darkness. Some believe it is Mr. Freshour. Others suspect it is Mary, who used the letters to support her perfect murder of her husband.

17. The Tunguska Facts

Photo: SHUTTERSTOCK

On the morning of June 30, 1908, nearly 2,000 square kilometers of forest in Siberia – Russia was cut down by “an explosion”. There are no witnesses or evidence associated with this event. It was named “the Tunguska event”. Scientists classify it as a “collision event”, meaning that the collision can be recorded between two astronomical objects, such as an asteroid and the earth.

However, no craters were found in the “collision”. So scientists can only guess what happened, maybe an asteroid exploded on Earth, causing the aforementioned devastation in Siberia.

18. Flight MH370

On March 8, 2014, while flying from Malaysia to China, a Boeing 777 carrying 239 passengers and a crew member of the Malaysian Airlines airline suddenly disappeared.

One of the largest multinational search operations in aviation history found just 20 of the plane’s debris. Malaysia’s Prime Minister declined to comment beyond saying the plane had disappeared over the Indian Ocean.

Theories included, hijacked, captured by the US, crew committed suicide (there is information that the pilot is having a marriage problem), fire on a plane, plunging into the sea, natural Jelly attacks and even gets captured by aliens. But until now, this is still the biggest mystery in the history of modern world aviation.

Episode 12.

Just like in Greece, the process of birth, development and completion of the republic was associated with a long and fierce class struggle. Until the 3rd century BC, the state reached a complete level. The aristocratic Republic of Rome consisted of the following bodies:

1.Garitan Congress: The Congress of Military Units and also the Congress of the People, the highest authority of the Roman State, consists of 193 military units. The Franciscan congress is held twice a year, in Mac-fiber Square (Mars the god of war). This congress has the powers and duties of electing generals annually, electing high-ranking state officials, deciding domestic and foreign affairs of the country, issues of war and peace.

2. Consul: Is the head of state, is a high-ranking official in the ranks of Roman officials. In Rome there were usually two consuls. This position was elected by the Congress of Zion, selected from among the great nobles, for a one-year term. The two consuls had great military and civil power, the commander-in-chief of the army, and the power to convene the Senate Congress and the Scottish Congress.

3. Senate: Inherent from the monarchy, including powerful aristocrats. It was an office of the gentile clan, had between 300 and 600 people, and by the end of the republic had up to 900 people. It was a quasi-permanent organ of the Franciscan Congress, great power at times overwhelming that of the Xenturi Congress. The Senate has the power to approve the appointment of high-ranking officials of the Warsaw Congress, to pass congress resolutions, to administer state property, to interpret laws, to recommend building new rule. The Senate also has the power to formulate and direct domestic and foreign policy, the right to appoint a court, and order preliminary investigations of cases. The Senate also oversees the Roman religious affairs.

4. Consular Council: An executive body, elected annually by the Geneva Congress, consisting of high-ranking officials in the ranks of mandarins. This agency has the power to manage all state affairs, oversee law enforcement, has the power to fire subordinate bureaucrats, and to command the military.

5. Council of Judges: A council of seven people, elected by the annual Congress of Zion. This is the jury of the Roman court, specializing in criminal and civil cases. In addition, when the Consular Council is absent, the Council of Judges performs the duties of the Consular Council.

6. Supervisory Institute: Also known as the important people, is an important agency in the Roman state apparatus. This House has the right to suspend the implementation of all decisions of the Senate and of the Franciscan Congress if those decisions harm the interests of the people. The Institute also has the power to arrest public officials suspected of crimes.

In addition, there were many different high-ranking officials in Rome. All are responsible for their actions, if they commit crimes, they will be prosecuted before the law.

The clergy plays an important role in the political life and in the state apparatus. From the founding of the country until before 313 BC, Rome followed polytheism due to the religious influence of the Greeks. Accordingly, the god Jupiter (Jupiter) is considered the supreme god, creator and ruler of the universe. Juno) in charge of marriage, family, Venus (Venus), goddess of beauty and love, Mac-fiber (Mars): in charge of war, and so on.

But in 63 BC, Rome conquered the Palestinian region. So Judaism and later Christianity entered Rome. By AD 314, the Roman slave owner officially adopted Christianity as the state religion.

In short, the Roman State was a slave-headed aristocratic republic, in which the power of the gentile clan was still very strong. So in the class struggle, the popular posture and the industrial and commercial aristocracy were not capable of a complete victory over the gentile nobility, leading to in the 1st century BC, the generals, the gentlemen. the clan overthrew the republic again, established a dictatorship and monarchy.

In 82 BC, Xila established a dictatorship and declared dictatorship for life. In 46 BC, after defeating two political opponents, Crassals, Pom-pe (Pompey), Judi-ut Caesar (Julius Caesar) established a military dictatorship. But in 44 BC, Caesar was stabbed to death by an enemy while presiding over the Senate meeting. Shortly thereafter, all authority in Rome was in the hands of Ogre-via-buttons (Octavinus). In the year 27 B.C., Oc-ta-via-knot received the title Ogut, meaning the one of dignity, that is, Snail-ta-node, became Emperor. The republic collapsed and Rome entered a monarchy.

The change in Roman state institutions was also in the force correlation of the class struggle. At that time, due to the invasion, the Roman land expanded, the economic power of the land slave owner was strong, the Roman colony existed to popularize the form of large estate, a great estate to use. thousand of labor slaves. The strong economic power made the agricultural aristocrats to win the political struggle, to establish a dictatorship and monarchy.

Slaves in the 1st century BC together rose up to fight against the brutal exploitation of the slave master, such as the Nazi-cut revolt (Spartacus 73-71 BC). Although the rebellion was fiercely suppressed by the Roman slave owner, thousands of slaves were killed and their heads were piled on the great road from Rome to the periphery. However, slavery and the Roman state after that great uprising also collapsed. Besides the enslaved insurrection, there is also the struggle movement of peoples invaded and enslaved for self-liberation. To have the power to suppress slaves and the colonial people, Rome needed a strong government: dictatorship and monarchy.

Following Snail-node, Rome underwent emperors such as Ciligua – the insane king, Co-Diuu-fiber (Claudius) – the weak king, Nero– the greatest tyrant in the ancient history of the world. He slaughtered tens of thousands of Christians, killed wives and children, killed his brother, murdered the famous idealist and philosopher Sehemiah (Seneca) and eventually killed the Queen Queen. , the mother of y.

In 476, the Roman Empire perished. Europe ended slavery and entered a new socio-economic form: Feudalism was born during the dissolution and collapse of the giant Roman empire.

II.The Law

1. Roman law of the republic: The law of 12 pounds

Due to the struggle movement of the common people and the master of slaves and the mercenaries against the arbitrary manipulation of the judiciary in the judiciary, in 450 BC, a committee of 5 common people and 5 nobles was formed to write draft a written law. By 449 BC, this commission had finished drafting the law. The code is engraved on 12 bronze planks (the number 12 is the lucky number from the European point of view) and is placed in a public place for all to see, so the code is called the “Rule of 12”.

The 12-pound law clearly reflects the economic and social relations of early Rome in the republic. The main content of this law is to protect the property rights of wealthy slave owners. The law stipulates that anyone who trespasses on other people’s property such as theft, crop damage, home trespassing (burning a house) will be executed. If a thief enters a house, if he is killed, it is legal to kill the person.

The law sets out the cruel penalties for debtor. If the debtor fails to pay the debt on time, the court allows the creditor to arrest the debtor. During the 60 days of detention, the debtor was taken to the square three times on the day of the fair for the court to judge. After 60 days of detention, still unable to pay the debt, the creditor took the debtor out of the way. If you’re unlucky and still can’t pay the debt, the debtor can either be killed or sold overseas. Where the debtor owes many creditors and cannot repay, the creditors have the right to hash the debtor into pieces.

In terms of marriage and family, a man’s power is absolute. The husband manages the property. When a daughter gets married, it depends on her husband and father-in-law. The father has the right to sell his child as a slave. If sold for the third time, the son will be free from the bonds of the father. The law allows fathers to strip children of inheritance. The dying person is left with property for anyone. In order to protect the rights of an heir under the will, Zionariah has the authority to oversee the distribution of that property.

The 12-table law has a number of provisions on civil proceedings, but these provisions are cumbersome, cause difficulties and troubles in the process of adjudication and do not create favorable conditions for commodity economy. develope.

2. Late Roman republican law

The last period of the republic started from the 3rd century BC until the destruction of the republic (1st century BC). That was the peak period of the Roman empire. The territory covered from the West to the East, the commodity economy was thrived, the agriculture of a large estate was strong. All of them are the basis for the development of the law and vice versa, the economy and social relations themselves also need a comprehensive legal system to serve that infrastructure itself.

In the late republic, the sources of Roman law included:

– The decisions of the consuls. The consular documents were later codified by the famous jurists in the East Roman imperial advisory council and submitted to the emperors for application.

– Decisions of a powerful agency like the Senate.

– The court decisions: sometimes the judgment is just using customary law and it becomes the source of law.

– The decisions of the governor of the provinces.

– Legal practices: Ethnic customs in localities are raised into legal norm by the state.

– The works and works of Roman jurists while summarizing, summarizing and codifying the law.

On the basis of a rich source of law, Roman law includes the following contents:

– Institution on civil law

In Roman law, the civil institution was the most developed, the widest scope of regulation. These are the institutions of property rights, contractual relationships, and inheritance of property. The content of the institutions is rich and detailed.

+ About ownership: Roman law introduces the concept of ownership. It is the absolute right of use and disposition over that property. But the owner is still restricted by law, or by coercion by the state. For example the state wants to let a canal carry water through the land of the owner, who is forced to accept, etc.

+ Ownership: It is the ownership and the will to exercise that right over the property of others to serve its own benefit. The most common form of tenure at that time was land possession. The person entitled to possession may use the benefits brought about by the land and must pay the land rent to the owner. More specifically, possession means the right to rent the property of others for use (renting land, renting shops, etc.).
