Hey guys, here comes the second installment of our weekly news summary. Loads of things happened in the world again, and we created what we though are the most important ones from those, and of course we couldn’t miss out our program recommendations either. So three, two, one…
News from the world
Local
United Kingdom
Even though this picture has been uploaded to the HOPE not hate Facebook page, on the 2nd June, 2016. We didn’t find it before our weekly closure previously, so even though it is a bit late, but we would still like to share this with you. As we have found it quite interesting. At London Euston Station, volunteers have put the pictured transparent, with a bucket full of flowers (and it has been confirmed, that the bucket has been refilled several times). And as far my opinion goes, I don’t think I have to say any other things. The picture speaks for itself.

The next Iron Lady is coming?
According to Capital Wirral News, there are only two candidates left for the position of Prime Minister. Theresa May, and Andrea Leadsom. Just as a reminder, since 28th November, 1990. The United Kingdom haven’t had a female prime minister. And it seems like this could very well happen now.

10 days of war in Eastern Europe
25 years ago, (on the 7th July, 1991) a ten day conflict has came to an end, in the Republic of Yugoslavia. As we know Yugoslavia has been formed from six sovereign republics, five nations, four languages, three religions, and two alphabets, and it was only controlled by one centralized government, and when after 1989 everything started to go a bit south, and after a while the situation escalated to a higher level.
And that should be it, as we wouldn’t wish to say more about this, just wanted to remind everyone, and remember for the losses of everyone in a few lines.
For our heroes
During the afternoon, on the 1st July, 2016 tragic has happened on the Hortobágy. Soldiers of the Hungarian Defence Force’s, Warship and Mine Disposal Regiment, have been clearing an area from explosive devices. When at around two o’clock in the afternoon, Hungarian Local Time, a 250 kg, II. World War Russian bomb has exploded. The cause of the explosion is still unknown. But the fact is, that Master Sergeant Juhász Atilla, Master Sergeant Rózsa János Nándor, Sergeant Balázs Ádám, and Corporal Kozár Gábor have lost their lives in the line of duty. And Master Sergeant Tóth Péter has been seriously injured, but has been stabilized since. After the events, Hungarian Minister of Defense, Simicskó István, has announced that the soldiers have received a posthumous rank of Lieutenant. And commended them “For the Homeland” award, which is the highest possible commendation.
After the events of this tragic day, there were many speculations, on how, and why these events have happened, and the investigation is still on-going. The only thing we know for sure, is that their lives are a major loss, for the families, the armed forces, and for the country as well.
So hereby I’d like to take the opportunity, to say our condolences on behalf of the groups of editors, and on behalf of our followers to the families. And also we would like to wish a speedy recovery for Master Sergeant Tóth Péter.
Please honor them, with one-minute of silence!
Technology
Have you ever checked if someone your details have got stolen? No?! Well, we have good news!
As on the website Have I been Pwned you’d be able to search for details, from a previously hacked site. It is absolutely simple to use the portal, just type in your email address to the built in search engine, and in about one or two seconds you’ll get the answer, on how safe your details are!
The usage of the website is completely free! https://haveibeenpwned.com/
Make a breathalyzer from your phone.
On the other day I have found this video on the YouTube channel called Unbox Therapy, and to be completely honest I have found it a great idea, which Lou showcased. Technically it is nothing else, than a USB OTB stick, what is containing a few sensors, which are capable (just as well as the ones issued to the police) to analyse the air blown into it, and give back a blood-alcohol level.
More details in the video!
Auto – motor
A beautifully handled near miss, and a crashed Toyota Yaris.
United Kingdom, England, Lancashire, near Lancaster.
Aviation
Swiss has received their first Bombardier CS100.
The type of the aircraft might not be familiar for most, as we are sp
eaking of a relatively new plane. And as the HB-JBA tail-numbered aircraft is the first, what any airline in the world would use for commercial purposes. And even though some of you might have seen this bird in March, at that point in the factory livery of Bombardier. Soon this could be an everyday sight on most of the airports in Europe.
As Swiss has placed an order of 30 for the smaller variant of the CSeries, which will replace the aging Fokker 100s, and Avro RJ100 Avroliners.
App of the week
iOS
Tandem
All of us could possibly remember the application called Duolingo, many of you guys might still use it, or maybe just download it automatically, when you switch to a new phone, and even though this could be considered quite a good option for improving language skills. It couldn’t replace one thing, and that would be a native teacher, who is available anytime we wish. And that is how we got to Tandem. Similarly to last weeks’ app, I haven’t met for the first time with this application now. I think I have used it, ever since I’ve moved to Newcastle, as I wanted to get back to my German skills, and maybe pick up one more language.
Which went well, more or less, but probably I have helped more to those Russian users, who wanted to improve their English, than they helped me improve my Russian!
And good news, the languages you can learn, or practice, and the amount of people you can do this with is almost infinite, and also if you want to have a qualified teacher, now you have the opportunity for that as well. Soon we’ll be returning with a complete article about Tandem, until than if you want to have lessons, than just download the app.
Film and media
Top Gear
On the 4th July, 2016. Chris Evans, has announced on his twitter feed, that he had resigned from his post in Top Gear, and he also wished good luck, to his colleagues. And being completely honest, we’ve been expecting this for a long time, as the number of viewers of the BBC Show, has produced yet another negative record, on last Sunday.

Do you like coffee, and Swiss chocolate?
Well in this case we have good news, although I’m afraid only for our male readers, as according to our sources, at the end of this year a new café is going to be opened in Geneva, where the guests would be able to enjoy, more than just a cup of coffee. 😉
As at the place called Fellatio Café, next to the standard coffee house products, there will be an extra service available. Which shows quite well, that the customer is in the focus of this business.

The prime minister of the United Kingdom, David Cameron, has announced in one of his speeches in 2013, that if he were to win on the general elections in 2015, than he would definitely start a voting campaign about the EU membership. As you might be aware of the situation, in the last year David Cameron, and the Conservative Party have won on the general elections in 2015. And on 15th April, 2016 the BRExit campaign started, which would want to give the opportunity for the citizens of the United Kingdom, to express their opinions for the first time since 1975 about the United Kingdom’s position in the European Union.
Well for Google Maps I tended not to believe anything, and unfortunately at this point it was also clear, that I shouldn’t have listened to it. Except of the planned one and a half hours, I have arrived to the airport in about 40 minutes. But at least I had the chance to make a few pictures, and to have a look around before I’d check-in for my flight.
I really am waiting only for one thing now, which would be the boarding, and than after two and a half hours of comfort, and I’ll be arriving to Budapest. I never have expected that after all of the inconveniences today finally this plane would just push me a bit back to life.
row of seats for myself. I’m not saying that all of this is British Airways privilege, as that wouldn’t be true. But one thing is for sure, after the whole day of travelling. And being in confined and airless places, like the megabus, or the Victoria and Picadilly line tube trains, this is definitely a dream.
But lets just start with a history lesson. The town started life as an Anglo-saxon settlement, with the name of Dearthington, and has played a major role in trading. St Cuthberth’s Curch, and the marketplace are still part of the landscape, and it is quite an achievement, as these were built in 1183 A.D. Though the oldest building in town is St. Andrew’s Church, which has been built somewhere around 1125 A.D. and could be found in Haughton. Which is just on the outskirts of town.
