Volgende week mag ik naar de opleiding #ICNG. Direct na de opleiding kan ik dan worden ingedeeld voor speciale diensten waarbij we (met een kleine selectie machinisten) al het nieuw geleverde materieel zullen inrijden.

Een draadje ⬇️⬇️⬇️

#NS #treinleven #machinist

Komend voorjaar is het dan eindelijk zover. #ICNG zal zijn intrede maken voor de reizigers! 💛💙

Door corona liep dit zo'n 1,5 jaar vertraging op. Tijdens corona zijn onderdelen (van over de hele wereld) slecht leverbaar geweest door de coronamaatregelen die tot recent golden.

NS heeft geleerd van het eerdere debacle op de HSL. Daarom zal het materieel eerst uitvoerig worden ingereden als leeg materieel. Op dit moment wordt door #Alstom de hand gelegd aan de laatste nodige software voor een vlekkeloos product.

Stiftg. Gedenkstätten Buchenwald u. Mittelbau-Dora

@Buchenwald_Dora

Wir sind entsetzt: Nachdem im Sommer etliche Gedenkbäume für Opfer des KZ #Buchenwald in Weimar geschändet wurden, brachten Unbekannte gestern Abend großflächig Hakenkreuz- und andere #NS-Schmierereien an Tafeln und Schildern in der Gedenkstätte an. Die Polizei ermittelt.

Diese Schmierereien sind ein abscheulicher Angriff auf die Würde der NS-Opfer und auf unsere Arbeit. Wir lassen uns dadurch aber nicht einschüchtern. Solche Taten beweisen, wie wichtig unsere Arbeit ist und dass wir dafür gesellschaftliche und politische Unterstützung brauchen.

Das Kürzel THS soll offenbar auf den "Thüringer Heimatschutz" verweisen. Ende der 1990er-Jahre war das eine Art Dachverband der "freien Kameradschaften" in #Thüringen, u. a. organisiert von Patrick Wieschke, Ralf Wohlleben und dem späteren #NSU.

@Lv10noob @NavyLookout If there was a high chance it was RU navy, and some evidence seems to exists already, they would get a full blockade through DK straight for sabotage/ecological impact and #NS would get immediately revoked its permits.

A NATO member most likely did it, outside NATO structures.

@Lv10noob @NavyLookout And only a nuclear power could fit the suspect profile. So US, FRA and UK.

The USA has been warning Germans in early September about possible sabotage.

Public has no direct evidence but circumstantial evidence hints to UK.

Unless proven innocent the UK is suspect.

@Lv10noob @NavyLookout Denmark has physical evidence: On Brnonholm there are hydro-acoustic station.

DK PM flew 3d after to UK and looked very very upset.

SWE has sonar data from their ships which caught a submarine before the sabotage.

US has data from P8 from several encounters with the sub.

@bidetmarxman @KitKlarenberg About the missing clear motive for blowing NS pipeline and low effect attack on Crimean bridge.

Both sabotages have similar fingerprints.

Both sabotages have low real impact on the event.

Both have HUGE policies change implications (!)

Explanation follows...

@bidetmarxman @KitKlarenberg The Prime suspect in both is UK.

- UK very anti Russian
- US hesitant to escalate
- EU compromising

The #NS - signal to allies: "We can not trade with Russia, pay them to wage war, we must Unite against them! Pipes sanctioned, unused anyway, cost small compared to our case"

@bidetmarxman @KitKlarenberg Note how Stoltenberg met with Ursula just hours before the blow happened. Next day new round of sanctioned happened.

0The RESPONSE to the Crimean bridge was expected to be brutal retaliation. Public is kept in anti Russian mood.

Summarize:

Both mission objectives succeeded.

@visitor_day @oyryeng The final decision is on consumers - do they want the gas or not?

I believe they do. That was the rational behind those pipeline in the first place.

It's simple RF has gas - EI needs gas. Build pipe and profit. Politicians handle state finances, board members handle profit.

@visitor_day @oyryeng So what is happening now is those politicians and EU energy companies calling in other frantically in a chaotic dance to coordinate the final commitment to the future deliveries.

This is a MAJOR strategic f*ckup of those who done the deed. This is why US has not approved the ...

@visitor_day @oyryeng strike in the first place and warned Germany actually in advance.

The US wants EU under its leadership and is not hesitating to weaken it yet it does not want it to fail nor does it want it have good relationship with Russia which MAY actually happen as a result of the strike.

Wir & insbesondere unsere Vorsitzende @anetta2552 als zentrales Feindbild sind zur Zeit massivsten Anfeindungen ausgesetzt. In welchen Formen der Hass & der #Antisemitismus auftritt, erklären wir heute anhand der Strategie der NS-Relativierung & Beispielen im Bild. 1/6

Die Relativierung des Nationalsozialismus und der #Shoah ist ein beliebtes Mittel von Antisemit*innen verschiedener Couleur. Durch die Gleichsetzung werden die tatsächlichen Opfer des Antisemitismus verhöhnt und die Shoah verharmlost. 2/6

Unsere Vorsitzende Anetta Kahane wird regelmäßig mit #NS-Verbrechern wir Hitler, Himmler und Eichmann verglichen. Eine perfide Strategie, mit der eine Jüdin, die seit Jahrzehnten gegen #Rechtsextremismus kämpft, in die Nähe des #Nationalsozialismus gerückt wird. 3/6

Five new cases of COVID-19 for #NS That includes the two school-based cases announced late yesterday. The other three are close contacts of previously recorded cases. Briefing with @StephenMcNeil and @StrangRobert should start soon.

https://twitter.com/nsgov/status/1328776732858519554

Briefing now underway. Premier McNeil starts by going over process to work with schools that now have positive COVID cases - Auburn HS and Graham Creighton JH. Calls this a "wakeup call". Says the virus is creeping into neighbourhoods.

Dr. Strang says there have been 15 new cases of COVID since Friday. Now 24 active cases. So far in November, we've had 42 cases, and "it's a trajectory we can't continue to follow." (Compare that to three in September.)

Update now with @StephenMcNeil and @StrangRobert One new case of COVID-19 in #NS now. McNeil says he's concerned about how quickly cases are creeping up. Says people are quarantining at households. That ends today. Must now quarantine for 14 days alone

If you can't isolate alone, the entire household must isolate. No exceptions.

Mobile testing unit being deployed to Clayton Park to identify virus and prevent further spread. Cluster of cases in that area.

Was die wichtigste deutsche #NS-Hardcore-Band „#Brainwash“, insbesondere deren #Nazi-Sänger René Weiße alias „Major Williams“ mit dem Thüringer #NSU-UA zu tun hat, warum es die Band wohl so nicht mehr geben wird & warum #Nazi-Gossip glücklich macht, erfahrt ihr im #thread.

Im September begannen sich #Neonazis in einem Telegram-Chat über ihre bevorzugten #Nazi-Bands auszutauschen. Eine Person schwärmte regelrecht von „#Brainwash“, erfuhr jedoch schnell Widerspruch. „Von Brainwash wird nichts mehr kommen“ „Jedenfalls nicht mehr mit dem Sänger“

Sie deuteten an, dass da was enthüllt wurde und wurden teils konkreter (mein Lieblingszitat aus dem Chat): „Singen kann er schon, das stimmt. Leider aber nicht nur am Mikro.“ (😂)

One of #NovaScotia's oldest mines was the Sibley Mountain Slate Quarry in #ColchesterCounty. From the 1770s to 1860s it provided shingles and flagstones for buildings in #Halifax and England.
Here's the story...
#nspoli #nshistory @LarryHarrisonPC @ZannLenore @MunColchester

Only the early Acadian mines at Joggins, which provided coal for Fort Beausejour and Port Royal, and the French mine at Port Morien, which provided coal for Louisbourg, are known to be older.
#nspoli #nshistory @LarryHarrisonPC @ZannLenore

The Sibley Mountain quarry was built on land owned by John Olemixon and was commissioned by his close friend, John Wentworth, who became Lieutenant Government of #NovaScotia in 1792.

Mining built #NovaScotia!
Government House – the residence and workplace of Nova Scotia’s Lieutenant Governor – features stone quarried from across #NS.
Here's the story of that beautiful building!

#nspoli #cbpoli #capebreton #Halifax @LtGovNS
@CPMcCreery @HistoricNS @TourismNS

When he arrived in #Halifax in 1792, Sir John Wentworth (1737-1820) objected to the dank, less-than-luxurious Governor’s residence. In letters he wrote back to England, he described it as being of “green wood and rotten timbers” and “in danger of falling into the cellar.”
#nspoli

So he set about arranging to build a proper country manor for the lieutenant governor’s residence. The site he chose, just off what is now the corner of Spring Garden Road and Barrington St. in #Halifax, had actually been purchased by the government to be...

Gold has many uses, including in all electronics and in medicine (i.e. treating cancer, pacemakers, surgical equipment...).
But how did #NovaScotia's #gold deposits form?
#nspoli #cbpoli #capebreton @ChenderMLA @AllanMacMaster @HomeMattersCB @TimHoustonNS @LarryHarrisonPC

All #gold on Earth formed billions of years ago in stars that over-heated and blew up. Gold formed in the heat of the explosions and then floated around space. As rock, dust and other materials came together to form Earth, gold was distributed around the planet.
#nspoli #cbpoli

400 million years ago North Africa and North America started colliding. Sub-sea sediments were squished between the tectonic plates, upthrusted and folded as they turned into rock.

There are over 5500 known minerals, including a few that were discovered in #NovaScotia!
Check out this thread for details!
#nspoli #cbpoli #capebreton @NS_Museum @ns_moi @HistoricNS @TourismNS

Henry How was responsible for two mineral discoveries in #NovaScotia. How was born in London, England in 1828 and moved to #NS in 1854 to work at King’s College in #Windsor as a professor of natural history and chemistry. He became the university’s vice-president in 1877.
#nspoli

How discovered the mineral mordenite, named for Morden (Kings County) where he discovered it in 1864. Mordenite is used to clean up chemical spills, in animal feed and for water treatment.

Am 20. Juli wird #Stauffenberg in Deutschland gefeiert.
Er hat gehandelt, als viele Andere tatenlos zusahen und wurde dadurch zum Opfer. Er war vorher 11 Jahre lang #Taeter im #Nationalsozialismus.
Er eignet sich deshalb _nicht_ als Identifikationsfigur für Zivilcourage (Thread)

Neben #Stauffenberg gab es weitere Widerstandskämpfer:innen gegen das unmenschlichste Regime in der Geschichte, das in #Deutschland Fuß fassen und 12 Jahre lang innenpolitisch relativ ungestört #Krieg, #Vernichtung und vor allem #Holocaust betreiben konnte.
(2/x)

Es gab aber auch Widerstand gegen den NS. Beispiele sind:
Georg #Elser verübte am 8.11.39 ein Attentat auf Hitler, das leider fehlschlug. Er wurde am 9.4.45 im #KZ #Dachau ermordet - 20 Tage vor der Befreiung des Lagers durch die #USArmy.
Es gab die #WeisseRose... (3/x)

Wenn am #20Juli an #Stauffenberg erinnert und gleichzeitig der offizielle Gedenktag an den Widerstand gegen den #Nationalsozialismus begangen wird, entsteht schnell der Eindruck, ein Großteil der deutschen Bevölkerung hätte sich der Entrechtung ihrer Mitmenschen widersetzt. (1/5)

Bis heute glauben viele an eine Widerstandsbiografie ihrer Verwandten. Laut der repräsentativen Memo-Studie von @unibielefeld & @evzfoundation behaupten 28,7% der Befragten, dass ihre Vorfahren "während der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus potentiellen Opfern geholfen haben" (2/5)

35,9 % sehen ihre Vorfahren gar "unter den Opfern während der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus”. 69,8 % gehen davon aus, dass ihre Vorfahren nicht unter den Tätern waren. (3/5) stiftung-evz.de/fileadmin/user…

The #Cunard name is a famous one in #NovaScotia thanks to shipping magnate Samuel Cunard who established the Cunard Line.
Read this thread to learn about his involvement in #NS' mining industry!
#nspoli #cbpoli #CapeBreton @cunardline @NS_Museum @ns_mma

Samuel Cunard, born in #Halifax in 1787, established the Cunard Line, which operated the first regular Atlantic steamship service that carried mail between England and North America.
#nspoli #cbpoli #CapeBreton @cunardline @NS_Museum @ns_mma

His shipping empire eventually included famous ships such as the Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth and still operates today as a cruise line.
But Cunard had other business interests, including mining.

#Gypsum was discovered on #CapeBreton’s #IsleMadame in the 1800s. The most significant deposit is on the north side of the island, in the Lennox area.
Here's the history of the Lennox gypsum quarry!
#nspoli #cbpoli #novascotia
@TourismCB @TourismNS @mikekelloway @alanapaon

The Lennox #gypsum quarry opened around 1865. Prior to 1873, about 1500 tons were exported yearly but there was little production during the rest of the 1870s.
#nspoli #cbpoli #novascotia #capebreton

A major hurricane in August 1873 destroyed the nearby wharf and building and the structures were not replaced in the 1870s. In fact, the August Gale, as it was called, destroyed 900 buildings and 1,200 boats in #NovaScotia, and killed as many as 600 people, according to reports.
