Stop Torture

The Harvard Anti-Torture Coalition

Urge Accountability

SAMPLE LETTER TO YOUR CONGRESS MEMBERS:

Dear Representative _______ and Senators ________ and ________:

I call upon you, my elected representatives, to appoint a special prosecutor to conduct a thorough, independent, and public investigation into the role of high-ranking U.S. officials in the abuse and torture of detainees in Guantánamo, Iraq, Afghanistan, and in secret detention facilities throughout the world.

I am deeply disturbed by evidence of the systematic use of torture and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment against detained persons in the name of the United States, including the outsourcing of torture to other countries. This pattern of abuse “resulted from decisions made by the Bush administration to bend, ignore and cast rules aside.” [1]

Involvement in war crimes must not remain unpunished, no matter what the perpetrator’s rank. Current and former top U.S. officials such as Donald Rumsfeld (former Sec. of Defense), Alberto Gonzalez (former U.S. Attorney General), George Tenet (former Director of the CIA), Porter Goss (former Director of the CIA), Michael Hayden (current Director of the CIA), and Steven Bradbury (acting head of the Office of Legal Counsel, Dep. of Justice), have remained unaccountable for their roles in these crimes. I demand accountability for all public officials, not only for those who actively participate in torture, but also for those who condone, instigate, order, or acquiesce to abuses of detainees.

    انواع تيغه در ماشين اصلاح صورت و سر استفاده از ماشين‌هاي اصلاح که جزو لوازم اصلاح صورت مردانه است امروزه طرفداران بسياري پيدا کرده و بسياري از مردان به دنبال خريد اين دستگاه هستند. اما پيشنهاد مي‌کنيم قبل از اينکه براي خريد اقدام کنيد سعي کنيد اطلاعات خود را در مورد ماشين اصلاح بالا ببريد. بالا بردن اطلاعات به شما کمک مي‌کند تا گزينه بهتري را نسبت به سليقه و نياز خود انتخاب کنيد. اولين چيزي که مي‌خواهيم درباره اين ماشين‌ها برايتان توضيح دهيم انواع تيغه در ماشين اصلاح است. به طور کلي ماشين‌هاي ريش تراش دو نوع تيغه دارند: ماشين ريش تراش با تيغه چرخشي ماشين ريش تراش با تيغه فويلي ماشين ريش تراش با تيغه چرخشي اگر مي‌خواهيد يک اصلاح خيلي تميز و فوق العاده داشته باشيد، ريش تراش با تيغه چرخشي بهترين گزينه براي شماست. تيغه‌هاي اين مدل بيضي شکل بوده و استفاده از آن بسيار راحت است. اين مدل ريش تراش صداي کمي دارند و موهاي خيلي بلند را هم مي‌تواند به خوبي اصلاح کند. تيغه‌هاي چرخشي معمولا دسترسي راحت‌تري به همه نواحي صورت دارند.ماشين اصلاح فويلي تيغه‌هاي ريش تراش فويلي زير يک فويل محافظ قرار گرفته و به جاي اينکه چرخش داشته باشند، خط زن جیمی ۸۳۰ داراي حرکت رفت و برگشتي هستند. در ريش تراش‌هاي فويلي چند تيغه وجود دارد. به طور مثال ريش تراش‌هاي با چهار تيغ، سريع تر از سه تيغه‌ها صورت را اصلاح مي‌کنند. دقت کنيد زماني که با ريش تراش فويلي کار مي‌کنيد، دست شما بايد حرکت رفت و برگشتي داشته باشد نه حرکت چرخشي.تفاوت تيغه سراميک و فولادي همه ماشين‌هاي اصلاح تيغه ثابت (تيغه زيري) دارند که جنس آن از فولاد است. برخي ماشين‌ها تيغه متحرک هم دارند که از جنس سراميک است. اين دو جنس تيغه تفاوت‌هايي با هم دارند که مي‌توان گفت تيغه سراميکي تيزتر از فولادي بوده و کند نخواهد شد. اما در در کنار اين نکته مثبت، تيغه سراميکي در صورت ضربه خوردن امکان شکستگي دارد. پس تيغه‌هاي سراميکي نسبت به فولادي تيزتر و شکننده‌تر هستند. اين انتخاب بستگي به توقع شما از ماشين اصلاح سر و صورت دارد.

    Satta matka is a popular game played in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. It was invented during the medieval period in India, when there were no banking facilities or cheques to keep track of money transactions. This made it difficult for people to trust each other with their money which was out on loan at various places. To solve this problem, they decided to play a game where they could bet on who would win a particular amount of money at their disposal that day or week.
