British couple in their 70s arrested by Taliban. A British elderly couple, Peter Reynolds (79) and his wife Barbie (75) who dedicated 18 years of their lives to social and educational services in Afghanistan have been detained by the Taliban. The couple was arrested on February 1 while returning to their home in Bamiyan. Since then their children and family have received no clear updates about their condition causing immense concern among their loved ones. Peter and Barbie had been running various educational projects in Afghanistan since 2009 including five schools in Kabul and a training program for mothers and children in Bamiyan. Even after the Taliban's return to power in 2021 when most foreigners and NGO employees left the country the couple chose to stay. Their reason was simple they could not abandon Afghanistan in its time of need.

Idiots of Chaos
This take-apart 2025 administration is using Project 2025 to bust America. So many warnings came ahead of the election, but it didn't matter. Elon had the money to get the felon-tyrant elected; that and the Electoral College. Elon has well-known racist views and now thinks he is running the American government. He "preaches" about democracy and doesn't know what it is, but the tyrant gives him a pulpit. Being SOUTH AFRICAN, he can't run for president, but the convicted felon has figured that out, too. Bring him on as an advisor, and let him run amuck. Elon has unleashed twenty-year-old hackers to crack all the government systems. The tyrant is fine with this, and so are Republicans in Congress.

Women's Work Hidden by Patriarchy and Capitalism: Honoring Historical Craftsmanship Contributions
We exist in a time when the gender pay gap is expanding. Recent studies indicate that women earn less than men, and the pandemic has exacerbated the pay gap in various nations. This disparity continues because there are fewer women in high-paying leadership roles and because women predominantly work in lower-paying industries. Yet, there are even more subtle and harsh reasons contributing to the gender pay gap. Historically, women’s work has been undervalued, resulting in unequal pay for comparable jobs between genders. Although this practice is gradually decreasing, it still exists.
