Tensions Flare at Protest on Market Street

By News Editor 6 years ago

Pro-Kurdistan protestors face off with Erdogan supporters outside the Student Union.

On Saturday 3 February, a protest outside the St Andrews student union turned into a minor scuffle.

Activists from the Socialist Society at St. Andrews gathered on Market Street as part of protest organised by Scottish Solidarity for Kurdistan to denounce the Turkish government’s attack on Afrin.

Tom Freebairn, member of the Socialist Society at the University, commented on behalf of the group about the protest.

He said, “We got a lot of good response from the community. Lots of people took interest and I like to believe a few people learned something new or got interested in the current situation.”

Despite this positive feedback, there was still pushback from counter-supporters.

 A group in favour of Erdogan, Turkey’s current President, confronted the pro-Kurdistan group outside of the Student Union and a minor physical altercation followed although it was swiftly diffused.

According to Mr. Freebairn, “Pro-Erdogan supporters heckled and filmed us from a few streets over for most of the protest. It came to a head when several Erdogan supporters manifested themselves from Bell Street and hurled insults at the demonstration. It culminated in some shoving but luckily it de-escalated before anything worse could happen.”

A bystander, who wished to remain anonymous, commented that the brief quarrel was “scary” and that she had been “caught up in the middle of it” while simply trying to pass through.

The Scottish Solidarity for Kurdistan is an organisation created in order to establish connections between Scotland and Kurdistan.

The protest in St Andrews was one of many in the area following a similar one in Dundee outside the Overgate Shopping Centre.

Protests are being organised in response to Turkey’s recent offensive of Afrin, a city in Northern Syria.

 According to BBC.co.uk, the motivation behind Turkey’s assault on Afrin is the country’s intent to demolish the People’s Protection Units (YPG), a Syrian Kurdish militia that Turkey believes has ties to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) which has been banned in Turkey after fighting for Kurdish independence.

 

Turkey considers the YPG to be a terrorist group and has long stated its intent to clear the YPG from the area.

    Flirt.com is a scam
    Hi all, got scammed by this website. Saw that there were a couple of post informing about this but just wanted to give more details
    Paid for the three day offer and with the confirmation of the subscription, got two mails from hornycontacts.com and loveaholics.com asking me to confirm my email. Didn’t pay attention and deleted them.
    I immediately canceled the subscription in flirt.com without any issue and on the last day it changed to a standard membership so since it was bs site, cancelled the account as well.
    So I was happy and watching a movie when I got an sms from my card provider telling me that I got a 71.78 euros charge from fry frtlsp.com. Never heard of them, so I called my card provider and cancelled my card and will request the return of the money as well.
    Then I realized that maybe these two websites also by some miracle signed me up to a paid subscription… so I logged in… had to recover the passwords because they were not the one I used in flirt.com… and surprise, loveaholics.com did signed me up for a paid subscription without me being aware (pretty sure that somewhere during the signing process in flirt there was something checked and didn’t pay attention.). So I had to cancel subscription and account in these two other sites.
    So, sorry for the long post but in summary…. do not use flirt.com at all!!!
    Yes, FLIRT.COM it is a scamming website. It sign you on multiple websites like askme4date.com . It bombard you with emails that you receive messages, and you need to pay to see them. After you pay you see the messages. All messages are from BOTS. No real person.
    It’s subscribing to automatic renewal and it’s hard to cancel renewal. They push you to a complicated scheme. I’m not even sure the renewal canceling works. After

  72. Understanding COSC Certification and Its Importance in Watchmaking
    COSC Validation and its Strict Standards
    Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, or the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Agency, is the authorized Swiss testing agency that attests to the accuracy and accuracy of timepieces. COSC certification is a sign of quality craftsmanship and reliability in timekeeping. Not all timepiece brands pursue COSC certification, such as Hublot, which instead follows to its proprietary stringent standards with movements like the UNICO, reaching comparable precision.

    The Science of Precision Timekeeping
    The core mechanism of a mechanical timepiece involves the spring, which delivers power as it loosens. This system, however, can be vulnerable to environmental elements that may affect its precision. COSC-certified mechanisms undergo rigorous testing—over 15 days in various conditions (five positions, 3 temperatures)—to ensure their resilience and reliability. The tests evaluate:

    Mean daily rate precision between -4 and +6 seconds.
    Mean variation, peak variation rates, and effects of temperature variations.
    Why COSC Accreditation Matters
    For watch aficionados and connoisseurs, a COSC-validated timepiece isn’t just a piece of technology but a testament to lasting excellence and precision. It signifies a watch that:

    Provides outstanding dependability and precision.
    Provides guarantee of superiority across the entire construction of the timepiece.
    Is probable to hold its value more efficiently, making it a wise choice.
    Well-known Chronometer Manufacturers
    Several well-known manufacturers prioritize COSC accreditation for their watches, including Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and Longines, among others. Longines, for instance, offers collections like the Record and Spirit, which showcase COSC-accredited movements equipped with innovative substances like silicon equilibrium suspensions to improve durability and efficiency.

    Historic Background and the Evolution of Timepieces
    The notion of the chronometer dates back to the need for accurate chronometry for navigational at sea, emphasized by John Harrison’s work in the eighteenth century. Since the official establishment of Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres in 1973, the accreditation has become a benchmark for assessing the accuracy of luxury timepieces, sustaining a tradition of superiority in horology.

    Conclusion
    Owning a COSC-certified timepiece is more than an visual selection; it’s a commitment to excellence and precision. For those valuing precision above all, the COSC accreditation offers peacefulness of mind, guaranteeing that each certified watch will perform dependably under various conditions. Whether for individual contentment or as an investment decision, COSC-validated watches distinguish themselves in the world of horology, bearing on a legacy of meticulous chronometry.

    로드스탁과 레버리지 방식의 스탁: 투자 전략의 참신한 지평

    로드스탁에서 제공하는 레버리지 방식의 스탁은 주식 시장의 투자법의 한 방법으로, 높은 이익율을 목적으로 하는 투자자들을 위해 매력적인 옵션입니다. 레버리지 사용을 사용하는 이 전략은 투자자들이 자신의 자금을 넘어서는 금액을 투자할 수 있도록 함으로써, 증권 장에서 더욱 큰 영향력을 행사할 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다.

    레버리지 스탁의 원리
    레버리지 방식의 스탁은 일반적으로 투자금을 대여하여 사용하는 방식입니다. 사례를 들어, 100만 원의 투자금으로 1,000만 원 상당의 증권을 취득할 수 있는데, 이는 투자하는 사람이 일반적인 투자 금액보다 훨씬 더욱 많은 증권을 구매하여, 증권 가격이 올라갈 경우 해당하는 훨씬 더 큰 이익을 획득할 수 있게 해줍니다. 그렇지만, 주식 가격이 떨어질 경우에는 그 손해 또한 크게 될 수 있으므로, 레버리지를 이용할 때는 신중하게 생각해야 합니다.

    투자 전략과 레버리지 사용
    레버리지는 특히 성장 가능성이 높은 사업체에 투입할 때 유용합니다. 이러한 사업체에 상당한 비중으로 투자하면, 잘 될 경우 상당한 수익을 가져올 수 있지만, 반대 경우의 경우 많은 리스크도 감수하게 됩니다. 따라서, 투자하는 사람은 자신의 위험성 관리 능력과 장터 분석을 통해 통해, 어떤 기업에 얼마만큼의 자본을 투자할지 결정하게 됩니다 합니다.

    레버리지 사용의 이점과 위험 요소
    레버리지 방식의 스탁은 큰 이익을 약속하지만, 그만큼 상당한 위험성 동반합니다. 증권 거래의 변화는 예상이 곤란하기 때문에, 레버리지를 사용할 때는 늘 상장 동향을 정밀하게 주시하고, 피해를 최소화할 수 있는 계획을 세워야 합니다.

    결론: 신중한 고르기가 요구됩니다
    로드스탁을 통해 제공하는 레버리지 스탁은 효과적인 투자 수단이며, 적당히 활용하면 많은 이익을 제공할 수 있습니다. 그러나 상당한 위험성도 생각해 봐야 하며, 투자 선택은 필요한 정보와 조심스러운 생각 후에 실시되어야 합니다. 투자자 자신의 금융 상황, 리스크 감수 능력, 그리고 시장의 상황을 반영한 균형 잡힌 투자 방법이 중요합니다.
