882058 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human%20rights%20in%20the%20Caucasus%20Emirate | Human rights in the Caucasus Emirate | Human Rights Watch has been documenting human rights abuses in Russia’s turbulent North Caucasus region for close to two decades. In recent years, our work in the region has been largely focused on the situations in Chechnya and Dagestan.
In conclusion, please allow me to suggest a few steps that the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe could carry out with regard to the deeply problematic human rights situation in the North Caucasus region.
The Parliamentary Assembly should put the human rights crisis in Dagestan and Chechnya on its agenda with a view to adopting a resolution that:
Acknowledges the deteriorating situation
Reiterates the recommendations it made to the Russian Federation in Resolution 1738 (2010).
Calls on Russia to ensure that human rights defenders, lawyers, and journalists can carry out their work unhindered in the North Caucasus, and to bring to justice those responsible for attacks on and killings of human rights defenders, lawyers, and journalists in the North Caucasus who were targeted in retaliation for their work.
Calls on Russia to ensure that the laws and constitution of the Russian Federation are fully upheld in the North Caucasus, particularly in Chechnya, and particularly in relation to the rights of women and girls
Encourages the Human Rights Commissioner to keep the situation of the North Caucasus high among his priorities.
The Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights should continue its important work monitoring closely developments in the North Caucasus and should continue to request access; the situation in the North Caucasus should remain a priority for the Monitoring Committee’s assessment of Russia.

882062 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean%20Pierson | Jean Pierson | Jean Pierson (17 November 1940 – 3 November 2021) was a Tunisian-born French engineer. He was known for working in the Concorde program and the creation of Airbus.
Biography
Pierson was born on 17 November 1940 in Bizerte in the French protectorate of Tunisia. He studied at the Prytanée national militaire and the military academy in La Flèche, France, and graduated from the Institut supérieur de l'aéronautique et de l'espace in 1963. His started his career in 1963 at Sud Aviation, the predecessor of Airbus Industrie, where he worked as a production engineer. He joined French aerospace manufacturer Aérospatiale in 1972, going on to head their commercial aircraft business. From 1972 to 1976, Pierson served as director of SOCATA, the light aircraft division of Aérospatiale, and then as director of the Toulouse office of Aérospatiale from 1976 to 1983.
Pierson succeeded Bernard Lathière as managing director of Airbus in March 1985. Lathière had lost his job due to a conflict between the German and French shareholders of the company. At the time, Airbus was not a significant competitor to the then market leader, Boeing, which held a more than seventy percent market share in the commercial jetliner market. Airbus was often dismissed by market leader Boeing as a "minor nuisance" whose primary charter was to drive European jobs. Pierson's actions as leader included broadening the company's range of commercial jets and establishing a brand that could compete on quality. In a move to break into the U.S. commercial aviation market, Pierson recruited native-English talent and had a former US Transportation Secretary, Alan S. Boyd, take position as the North American leader. He also set up a pilot training centre in Florida as a finishing school for pilots of Airbus jets. In one of Airbus's first big wins, Northwest Airlines, which would later merge with Delta Air Lines, ordered 100 Airbus A320 jets. In another big win, US Airways, which later merged with American Airlines, placed an order for 400 jets in 1997. Pierson is famously known to have unbuckled his belt and dropped his trousers when at the last minute, a discount was demanded by the airline's CEO Stephen Wolf. Wolf is said to have ended the negotiation at that point, and signed the contract for 400 jets.
Pierson died on 3 November 2021, two weeks before his 81st birthday.

The Bosnian constitution prohibits ethnic minorities such as the Jewish people and the Roma people, which are the two largest minority groups in the country, from running for presidency.
LGBT rights
Same-sexual activity is legal in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Same sex marriage and relationships are not legally recognised under Bosnian law. Transgender persons are allowed to change their legal gender. In the United Nations Human Rights Council's 2019 report on Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Human Rights Committee and the Committee Against Torture expressed concern at the lack of investigation by authorities of hate crimes committed towards lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. Homophobia and violence and hate crimes against members of the LGBT community is widespread in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In September 2008, seven civilians and a police officer were injured by anti-LGBT protestors at the Queer Festival Sarajevo. The organisers of the festival received anonymous death threats leading up to the festival. Six people were hospitalised with head injuries and one of the attackers was detained by police. In September 2019 Bosnia's first LGBT pride parade was held in Sarajevo, the country's capital city. One thousand police officers were present to protect the protestors from violence and hate crimes. Counter-protests were held in Sarajevo by anti-LGBT groups at the same time as the Pride parade.

LGBT rights
Studies on religion in the Western Balkans show that Homosexuality is perceived to be a unifying enemy promoted by Western values. The more that sexual diversity is defended by the West, the more resistance may emerge against LGBTI people's human rights. There are no faith-based groups providing support to LGBTI people.

Some human rights organizations have documented a variety of abuses and atrocities carried out by the Sudanese government over the past several years under the rule of Omar al-Bashir.
LGBT rights
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) persons in Sudan face legal challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents. Both male and female same-sex sexual activity has been illegal in Sudan, with sentences including but not limited to capital punishment. However, in July 2020, the sodomy law that previously punished gay men with up to 100 lashes for the first offence, five years in jail for the second and the death penalty the third time around was abolished, with new legislation reducing the penalty to prison terms ranging from five years to life. Sudanese LGBT+ activists hailed the reform as a 'great first step', but said it was not enough yet, and the end goal should be the decriminalisation of gay sexual activity altogether.

Still, there are several considerable problems.
LGBT rights in Armenia
Homosexuality has been legal in Armenia since 2003. However, even though it has been decriminalized, the situation of local lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) citizens has not changed substantially. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) rights in Armenia have yet to be claimed and acquired. Homosexuality remains a taboo topic in parts of Armenian society as the nation trails other European nations in promoting LGBT rights. There is, moreover, no legal protection for LGBT persons whose human rights are violated regularly.

Description
Sometimes the work is conceived from the beginning as a multiple-film work – for example, the Three Colours series – but in most cases the success of the original film inspires further films to be made. Individual sequels are relatively common, but are not always successful enough to spawn further installments.
The 25 films (as of 2021) of the Marvel Cinematic Universe form the highest grossing film series even when adjusted for inflation, surpassing J. K. Rowling's Wizarding World (10 films) Star Wars (11 films), Ian Fleming's James Bond (25 films), and J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth (6 films) series.

It was released on October 26, 2021. The story follows Greg Heffley as he reluctantly signs up for basketball.
Development
Big Shot was first teased by Jeff in April of 2020 through Twitter. In a response to a fan letter, he confirmed that he was writing both a 15th and 16th book. The title and cover were later revealed on May 27, 2021.
The cover of Big Shot depicts Greg with mismatched equipment from multiple different sports. According to Kinney, this was a design choice to communicate that the story was about sports in general, rather than only basketball.
Plot
Greg decides that he isn't all that talented at sports and "retires". However, Field Day approaches and he decides to prepare. He then is "traded" from his class to another. His team ("class") placed 5th, with the cafeteria lunch ladies going on to win Field Day. His mom decides to convince Greg to give sports another chance. After much conversation, Greg reluctantly signs up for the basketball try-outs. After a horrible try-out session, he is picked for the worst team in the league. His team places last and are relegated to the "Second Chance Tournament", where Greg is traded out (once again) to the opposition in the finals; where he wins the game for the opposition after chucking a 3-pointer.

Van den Eynde was member of the CVP. Van den Eynde was councilor. In 1980 he became mayor of Aartselaar. He succeeded his party colleague Frans De Groof after internal disagreements within the party. He was re-elected in subsequent elections and was mayor for eight years until 1988. During his period as mayor, he had to deal with the allotment rage that was a main issue in the municipality before his appointment. Also during his period the municipal council bought the Solhof castle domain with the intention of housing municipal services. That ultimately did not happen and the buildings were later sold back. But the domain was transformed into a municipal park. Van den Eynde was succeeded by Camille Paulus.
Van den Eynde died in retirement home "Zonnetij" in Aartselaar on 2 November 2021.
