  • April 14, 2018 - Munich, Bavaria, Germany - Supporters of George Soros' Central European University in Budapest were in attendance.  The embattled university is in the direct line of Viktor Orban's alleged assaults on democracy. On April 14, 2018, Munich held its second March for Science event, with the event beginning at Koenigsplatz and ending at the famed Marienplatz.  The March for Science originally began as a subreddit thread that was a response to the Trump Administration removing the Climate Change page from government sites.  Eventually, a global, pro-science movement was grounded, with 230 cities worldwide participating this year.  The Munich organization team is composed primarily of American expatriates and not only focuses on science and knowledge, but fact-based politics.  Several hundred were in attendance.

  • He's nailed it. String artist Ben Koracevic creates these incredible works of art - using just cord and nails. The London-based creative winds thousands of metres of string around tens of thousands of nails to create what he calls 'stringometry'. Among his works are a huge portrait of Hollywood star Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Keanu Reeves as his John Wick action hero character. He has also created a likeness of Batman baddie The Joker - as played by Joaquin Phoenix in 2019 movie, Joker, as well as animals including a lion and monkeys and guitarist Slash from Guns N' Roses. He only started doing 'string art' nine months ago after watching a video of someone else showing off their skills. "I was completed fascinated with the rare art form," he said. "Developing my skill and ability to replicate what I witnessed became an obsession and I soon found every spare hour being invested into practising." The self-taught artist - who holds a science degree - has since quit his job and cashed in his life savings to follow his dream. He added: "I am quite particular on the pieces I choose. "It is just an instinct where I know the image will look good in string. "It is a very time consuming process which is a quality I enjoy. I love the mental endurance and patience needed to complete a piece to high quality. "Art is a universal language where the work does all the talking!" Ben uses a grid system overlapping a photo or sketch. He then upscales that on to a wooden canvas, before "meticulously referencing" nails to mark a foundation and an outline for the string. He winds the string between the nails to create a likeness, using more string to create darker shadows and more detail. He has used between 6,000 and 30,000 nails on individual pieces - and some contain more than 3,000 metres of string. And he can spend as much as 500 hours alone creating one piece. His works are available to buy at stringometry.com and he is available for private commissions. Please credit Courtesy of

He only started doing 'string art' nine months ago after watching a video of someone else showing off their skills. "I was completed fascinated with the rare art form," he said. "Developing my skill and ability to replicate what I witnessed became an obsession and I soon found every spare hour being invested into practising." The self-taught artist - who holds a science degree - has since quit his job and cashed in his life savings to follow his dream. He added: "I am quite particular on the pieces I choose. "It is just an instinct where I know the image will look good in string. "It is a very time consuming process which is a quality I enjoy. I love the mental endurance and patience needed to complete a piece to high quality. "Art is a universal language where the work does all the talking!" Ben uses a grid system overlapping a photo or sketch. He then upscales that on to a wooden canvas, before "meticulously referencing" nails to mark a foundation and an outline for the string. He winds the string between the nails to create a likeness, using more string to create darker shadows and more detail. He has used between 6,000 and 30,000 nails on individual pieces - and some contain more than 3,000 metres of string. And he can spend as much as 500 hours alone creating one piece.

  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sherbien Dacalanio in Philippines A Filipino family is desperately trying to raise funds required for separation of their conjoined twins attached at the forehead despite the risk of them dying in the operation. Chiara and Charina, 7, from Roxas in Palawan, were born with craniopagus. The conjoined wins’ struggle starts with waking up and till the time they go to sleep. In between of everything, whatever daily chores everyone does is excruciating painful and difficult for them. From bathing, to eating, while going to school, they need to manage their heads that is stuck to each other sharing an artery. Sonia Nortega, 37, the mother of twins, says: “We conducted a series of medical procedure on the twins, such as MRI and CT Scan. Much to our dislike, the reports suggest that it will be a risky affair to separate Chiara and Charina. In the arterial studies there is clear arterial crossover and sharing between the twins. In addition the venous studies show a very robust outflow circulation in the larger venous vessels. There is also very poor central deep drainage in the veins.’ “But we have decided to go ahead with the process anyway. I am well aware that during the process we might end up losing one of the twins. If one of them gets cured and starts leading a normal life, I would know the other sister’s sacrifice was worth. I am positive and believe in the miracles of science. I wishes to send my daughters to better surgeons, who can handle the risk of this case and cure her daughters. My heart says that they both would survive the operation and would be able to lead a normal life,” the said 37-year-old mother of five. The Nortegas have three other children that were born normal without any complication and lead normal life. After the doctors told the family that the separation of the twins possible is but involves a risky operation, a local charity withdraw its earlier financial support. Now, the Nortegas are finding it difficult to raise f

Sonia Nortega, 37, the mother of twins, says: “We conducted a series of medical procedure on the twins, such as MRI and CT Scan. Much to our dislike, the reports suggest that it will be a risky affair to separate Chiara and Charina. In the arterial studies there is clear arterial crossover and sharing between the twins. In addition the venous studies show a very robust outflow circulation in the larger venous vessels. There is also very poor central deep drainage in the veins.’ “But we have decided to go ahead with the process anyway. I am well aware that during the process we might end up losing one of the twins. If one of them gets cured and starts leading a normal life, I would know the other sister’s sacrifice was worth. I am positive and believe in the miracles of science. I wishes to send my daughters to better surgeons, who can handle the risk of this case and cure her daughters. My heart says that they both would survive the operation and would be able to lead a normal life,” the said 37-year-old mother of five. The Nortegas have three other children that were born normal without any complication and lead normal life.

  • He's nailed it. String artist Ben Koracevic creates these incredible works of art - using just cord and nails. The London-based creative winds thousands of metres of string around tens of thousands of nails to create what he calls 'stringometry'. Among his works are a huge portrait of Hollywood star Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Keanu Reeves as his John Wick action hero character. He has also created a likeness of Batman baddie The Joker - as played by Joaquin Phoenix in 2019 movie, Joker, as well as animals including a lion and monkeys and guitarist Slash from Guns N' Roses. He only started doing 'string art' nine months ago after watching a video of someone else showing off their skills. "I was completed fascinated with the rare art form," he said. "Developing my skill and ability to replicate what I witnessed became an obsession and I soon found every spare hour being invested into practising." The self-taught artist - who holds a science degree - has since quit his job and cashed in his life savings to follow his dream. He added: "I am quite particular on the pieces I choose. "It is just an instinct where I know the image will look good in string. "It is a very time consuming process which is a quality I enjoy. I love the mental endurance and patience needed to complete a piece to high quality. "Art is a universal language where the work does all the talking!" Ben uses a grid system overlapping a photo or sketch. He then upscales that on to a wooden canvas, before "meticulously referencing" nails to mark a foundation and an outline for the string. He winds the string between the nails to create a likeness, using more string to create darker shadows and more detail. He has used between 6,000 and 30,000 nails on individual pieces - and some contain more than 3,000 metres of string. And he can spend as much as 500 hours alone creating one piece. His works are available to buy at stringometry.com and he is available for private commissions. Please credit Courtesy of
