Reflective Journal #FourthWeek

It's already four weeks I've written this blog. There are still two weeks more before the midterm examination. It means I still have to write another twelve posting. I can't say I'm tired with this, if I say it, I will get exhausted for real. Still, I'm very grateful to people who have commented on my blog for the previous four weeks.

This fourth week I use "Human Conflict" as the theme. I think every news always contains about human conflict inside. But after I thought about it some more, human conflict is quite rare topic in the news. I don't really like to write about political issue, it's too complicated. I used human trafficking, demo and other topics that related to human conflict. I'm not so sure if the articles I wrote are about human conflict, but I wish those will be still useful for all of you.

Sean Creighton who idolised Adolf Hitler has been jailed after pleading guilty to hate crime offences. He admitted to posting racist, Islamophobic, homophobic and anti-Semitoc material on social media. Also including possessing a terrorist manual. Creight possessed an electronic document entitle "White Resistance Manual 2.4" which is said to contain details of improvised weapons and explosives. Mr Sandiford described it is a "complete guide on how to prepare for and conduct a terrorist campaign". Police was told by Creight that he was "a bit of a hater who hated for the people". He told the police that he was enthralled by Nazism and Adolf Hitler was his God. That's why Sean Creighton has prisoned by the police.

Helen Bailey, a famous author who wrote about teenager books, was found dead in a cesspit at her home. The culprit is her own fiance, Ian Stewart. He had denied murdering Helen Bailey at their home in Royston, Hertfordshire, in order to get his hands on her near-£4m fortune.  He was convicted at St Albans Crown Court following a seven-week trial. Wanting to inherit Ms Bailey's fortune, he had been secretly giving the author of the Electra Brown series of books sleeping drug zopiclone for weeks before he eventually smothered her with a pillow. On the day of the murder, April 11th last year, Stewart tried to change a standing order from Ms Bailey's account to the couple's joint account from £600 to £4,000 a month. He later tried to use power if attorney in order to sell a flat she had in Gateshead. He even reported Ms Bailey missing on April 15th. After three months later her body was found, having been pulled out of a "hard crust" of excrement inside the cesspit underneath the garage of their house. Steward was found guilty of preventing a lawful burial, fraud and three counts of perverting the course of justice. He will be sentenced soon.

NEET

A NEET is a young person who is not employed, not engaged in housework, not enrolled in school or job-related training, and not seeking work. The acronym NEET, Not in Education, Employment, or Training, was first used in the United Kingdom but its use has spread to other countries and regions including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the United States. Before the word NEET was spread in 1999, the phrase "status zero", which had an identical meaning, was used. The use of the term NEET became popular partly because of the negative connotations of having "no status" in economic activity on the part of young people. In the United Kingdom, the classification comprises people aged between 16 and 24 and In Japan between 15 and 34. A NEET can be counted as a patient of psychological illness, because human's definition is a spirit that caught in a body and has passions. If the passions is bigger than the spirit, it will cause psychological chaos to the NEET's personality. It's not a good thing to hear. NEET should stop themselves to be lazy and get themselves jobs, to get the better future.

"Today I am a Muslim, too"

Thousands of demonstrators gathered at one of the world's most famous public places, Times Square, New York, to denounce what they see as threats and pressure aimed at Muslim communities. Donald Trump, the President of the United State of America, has made numerous disparaging remarks about Muslims and an appeals court recently put a halt to his executive order that temporarily barred all refugees and travelers from seven predominantly Muslim countries from entering the country. This policy has raised American's anger. On the last Sunday, February 19th, about 7,000 to 10,000 people attended the rally whose the speakers were from rabbis, imams, a Sikh, a Buddhist,, Episcopalian and Presbyterian reverends, a Mennonite, a Seventh Day Adventist minister, a Hindu, a Baptist pastor, local politicians and civil rights advocates. Representing myriad backgrounds and faiths, many of demonstrators hoisting placards featuring a woman in an American flag hijab with the caption "we the people are greater than fear", heeding a music mogul's calls to let Muslims know their fellow Americans stood by them. With this action, Muslims hope "Today I am a Muslim, too" could be a sense of togetherness and keep the resistance towards Trump's policy which harms Muslims and others.

TraffickCam Fights Againts Human Trafficking

A new application has been found, in order to help people fight human trafficking. TraffickCam, a phone application provides pictures from more than 150,000 hotels could help police locate hotel rooms used for sex trafficking. Investigators often have troubles in searching location of the places that the sex traffickers used to sell the victims. With TraffickCam, investigators could use snapshots of hotel rooms to locate victims and prosecute sex traffickers. Why hotels? The US National Human Trafficking Hotline found hotels and motels to be a common venue for sex trafficking, with nearly 10 percent of known trafficking cases reported to them in 2016 taking place in a hotel or motel, believes the real figure is much higher. The idea of TraffickCam is that law enforcement agencies can then check adverts featuring suspected trafficking victims in hotel rooms against TraffickCam's database of photos. But even if the database identifies the location of a hotel, it's "luck of the draw" whether the victim is still there, because traffickers often post photographs from one location to advertise services in another. This app will only be able to narrow in on the exact location if enough photos are added to the database. That's why people are expected to participate to take action in fight human trafficking with this application.
