George Stini Jr.
18.01.2021.
African-American George Stini Jr. is the youngest person sentenced to death in the 20th century in the United States. He was only 14 when he was executed in an electric chair. During the trial, until the day of the execution, he always carried the Bible in his hands, claiming his innocence.
He was accused of killing two white girls, Betty, 11, and Mary, 7, whose bodies were found in 1944 near the house where the teenager was staying with his parents. At that time, all jurors were white. The trial lasted only 2 hours, and the sentence was handed down 10 minutes later. ⠀
His parents were threatened and then expelled from the city. Prior to the execution, George spent 81 days without being able to see his parents. He was detained in solitary confinement, 80 km from his hometown. He was questioned alone without the presence of his parents and lawyer, in violation of guaranteed constitutional rights. He was burned with a current of 5,380 volts, which was passed through his body.
Seventy years later, his innocence was finally proved by a judge in South Carolina. The metal bar that killed the two girls weighs more than 19 kilograms, so it was impossible for Stini to lift it, let alone be able to swing hard enough to kill the two girls.
Stini was innocently charged and sentenced to death just because he was black. Inspired by this case, Stephen King wrote the novel "Green Mile", which was transformed into the famous 1999 film.

Yorkshire Terrier
18.01.2021.
In February 1944, in the jungles of New Guinea, American soldiers found an adult Yorkshire terrier in a trench. At first, they thought that the dog belonged to the Japanese, but it turned out that the puppy did not understand the orders in either Japanese or English.
Smoki ended up in the hands of soldier William Bill Wine as collateral for a poker game debt that some soldier could not pay. With the new owner, Smokey took part in the battles in the Pacific, slept in his tent and ate his food. Since she was not an official military dog, she was not allowed to go to the vet or to have a special diet. Despite that, Smokey never got sick.
With her owner, she was rewarded for participating in eight battles, 12 combat missions, survivors of a typhoon and 150 air attacks. Once she was even lowered by a small parachute made just for her, from a height of 9 meters. When Bill fell ill with a fever, she was in the hospital next to him for five days, and she also saved him on one occasion, by barking to warn that the enemy was close.
One of her greatest achievements is helping build an air base in Lingaine Bay. Smokey moved in the drain pipes under the base and pulled the communication wires. When she was not participating in the war or helping, Smoki entertained injured soldiers in hospitals from Australia to Korea with tricks. She gladly performed her most famous trick of walking on a rope blindfolded. She was also a therapy dog. She survived the war and lived to a very old age. Today, there are two monuments, one dedicated to all the dogs that died during the war, and the other was personally erected by Bill and his wife. He was still alive for 99 years and often walked with his terriers to the monument to the dog that allowed him such a long life.

Bone music
12.01.2021.
Probably the most unusual record hides the story of the human spirit
In Russia after World War II, Stalin banned the possession of any Western music. All records allowed in the country had to be by Russian composers. But there were a lot of people hungry for Western popular music - everything from jazz and blues to rock and roll. Vinyl smuggling was dangerous, and obtaining materials to make copies of those records that somehow entered the country was expensive and very risky.
An ingenious solution to this problem began to appear in the form of "Bone Music", or sometimes called "Bone and Ribs" music, or simply Ribs.
A young 19-year-old sound engineer, Ruslan Bogoslovski from Leningrad, changed the rules of the game by making a device for copying Western albums so that he could then distribute them throughout Russia. The problem was that he could not find the material to copy to, vinyl was hard to come by like all petroleum products after the war. Then one day he came across a pile of discarded X-rays. It was successful. At the time, Russian law required that all X-rays be destroyed after one year of storage because they were flammable, so he dug up trash cans and paid cleaners for X-rays, and over 20 years he manually made about 1,000,000 copies on X-rays. There was everything from classics to Beach Boys. He eventually spent five years in prison in Siberia for this rebellion.
For over 20 years, "Bone Music" was the only way Russian music lovers could get to Western music, which they played at "music parties and coffee parties" in their homes, away from the ears and eyes of the KGB.
The picture shows a vinyl copy of the Indian song "Avaara" by Raja Kapor, made on a chest X-ray. It was probably built around 1951. Each plate was handmade and unique.
Bone Music. A confirmation of the courage to undermine authority, rebellion and love of music. The spirit of rock and roll.

Water war
Hello read.cash readers did you know that twenty years ago the authorities in Bolivia decided to privatize water, the people stood up and stopped the destruction of their country. It was an epic chapter in the history of the country, where the united people expelled a powerful transnational corporation that privatized their water.
In September 1999, the government handed over the city's water supply, without any public consultation, to a consortium led by California engineering giant Bechtel Corporation. Shortly afterwards, Bechtel raised the price of water enormously, and in addition, the entire southern part of the city was left without access to water. This circumstance was used by many private entrepreneurs who started selling water from cisterns, and it was of very poor quality. People were also forbidden to collect rainwater. The privatization of basic human resources led to a popular uprising and an eruption of protest that reached a hotbed in just a few days.
As the government did not fulfill this request, the inhabitants of the city and surrounding places organized a referendum on their own, to which over 50,000 citizens responded. In a referendum, a majority of citizens (95 percent) voted against privatization. However, as the government continued to refuse to negotiate, the protests became radicalized and they are appearing in other parts as well. Numerous roads were blocked, there was a general strike in Cochabamba, and activists rotated in shifts in order to maintain the blockade. All this time, the community has been making sure that activists are supplied with food and drink. After police arrested several activists, protests further intensified, and large mobilizations of people took place in the villages to maintain the blockade. ready for an open confrontation with the police. At one point, police opened fire on protesters, and teenager Viktor Hugo Daza (17) was killed in the clash. He became a hero in the fight against privatization, and his dead body was carried by activists to the square. As activists continued the blockade, the government was forced to agree to the repeal of the law on the privatization of water supply and water sources, and Bechtel was forced to leave the country.
The water supply system in Cochabamba has again become a public good. This movement has inspired other movements around the world that defend water as a common good, and not as a product from which one can profit. After the water war, Bolivia experienced a wave of popular resistance against neoliberal politics.
I hope things like this don’t happen again.

Diego Milito removes the curse
9.12.2020.
Good day friends. For a while I could not publish stories because of the obligations I have, but I think that in the coming period I will be able to take enough time to dedicate to the platform. Here is an interesting story about Diego. This is why football is loved! Enjoy
Like every Argentine, Diego Milito is in love with a club from his homeland. In your Racing. After Inter, he could choose where to continue his career. From the English Premier League, through Paris Saint-Germain to rich Chinese and American clubs. There was no dilemma. He decided to end his career at Racing. What he promised to the fans when he left at the age of 24, he finally fulfilled. He returned and won the title with the popular Academy. That is how the love for the club is proven, everything else is empty words…
By World War II, Racing had won nine titles, and city rival Inependijente only four. The post-war years were also marked by racing, until the beginning of the sixties. From 1963 to 1978, Independiente won six South American titles, six Argentine titles and the first world title.
It was in the sixties of the last century that a detail happened that will change everything. Legend, superstition or curse. Understand as you wish, but since then nothing has been the same.
After the grand final of Racing and Celtic in 1967, Independiente fans sneaked into the Cylinder under the cover of night and killed and buried seven black cats on the field. Why seven is never figured out. Until that moment, the academy was far ahead of the Red Devils in terms of trophies. Then Racing goes to hell! He has been waiting for the trophy for an incredible 34 years! He tried everything. He called priests, shamans, prophets, resorted to black magic… In vain. There was no way out of the maze of horrors. Racing sank, Independiente grew. The world turned upside down with blue and white. Everyone in Aveland believed that the curse was real. And they felt it every day. It is amazing in what ways Racing lost matches and trophy races. In one of the matches for the title, they hit the goal frame 14 times!
And then Milito enters the scene!
Clausuri In 2001, Racing fought for his bare life and some fans went to church to pray before the crucial match for survival. A certain Pablo Delpierro was also in the group of fans. He bought a rosary and waited in front of the locker room the next day to give it to one of the players. The youngsters Diego Milito and another football player came out first. Delpierro asked Milito to take the rosary as a gift that would bring him happiness. With the reminder that the curse has been lifted and that the Lord is with Racing.
In the survival match, the coach left Milita on the bench to bring him into the game in the second half. Diego scored a goal that kept Racing in first league status. Already in the next Apertura Championship of the same year, Racing directed a miracle and became the champion of Argentina! The blue and white part of Aveljaneda was burning, the curse was finally lifted!
In the next championship, the champion of Argentina was Independiente. With Defense Commander Gabriel Milito. The Milito brothers are a special spice in the history of the Aveljaneda derby. They played against each other and fought as if they were the biggest enemies. It exploded when they got to the duels. The rivalry in Aveljaneda rose again to the heavens.
But since 2002, the title has bypassed the smallest football metropolis on the planet.
And then Diego Milito came back. The idol of Inter fans turned down many offers to return to Racing. While Milito was scouring Europe, that Delpierro fan got a job at Racing to maintain the field. A few days after Milito's return to Racing, they met at the exit of the stadium. Delpierro looked at him shyly, not thinking that the great Principe would remember the 2001 meeting.
"What is it? You're not going to ask for my rosary back, are you? ”Milito asked the startled Delpierre.
"Wait a minute," Diego continued and started digging in his sports bag, from which he took out a 13-year-old rosary.
The same blue one that Pablo Delpierro gave him. Milito told his fan that his rosary was his waist, that he did not separate from it and that he never forgot it… A few months later, Diego Milito scored two goals in the penultimate round against Rosario and scheduled a match for the title in Aveljaneda in the last round . River led for most of the championship, but the Academy overtook him and played for the title against Godoy at Cylinder. The tension in the air could be cut with a knife. Only a victory guaranteed Racing the title. And Godoy is one of those clubs that likes to make life miserable. Milito's assist to Senturion decided. Racing has become the champion of Argentina again!

Admiral Geprat
@Feniks25
24.11.2020.
Today, the fact that more than 60,000 Serbs stayed in camps and hospitals in North Africa during the First World War sounds almost unbelievable. More than 3,000 never returned from there, and there would have been many more casualties if Admiral Emile Geprat, the commander of the French army in Tunisia and the mayor of Tunisia, had not come to the aid of Serbian soldiers.
Admiral Geprat deserves credit for saving a Serbian soldier because, contrary to the views of the Supreme Command of the French Army, he decided not to place Serbian soldiers, who were plagued by death and death, deep in the desert sands of the Sahara, but in the town of Bizerte, which saved thousands from death.
After making sure of the condition of the soldiers on the ship who first sailed into the port of Bizerte and interrogated the doctors, the Admiral inquired where these people would be accommodated. The obvious idea was to place the soldiers under tents, in the hot sun and sand ...
"It's impossible, they have to get under the roof at least for the first time." Said Admiral Geprat.
Seeing that the Serbian soldiers were tired and weak, Admiral Geprat approved for the Serbian soldier to receive increased food intake and to be given a loaf of bread of one kilogram instead of 600 grams, as was the regulation for the French soldier.
However, the Serbian soldier most appreciated the fact that he treated them, exhausted and poor Serbian soldiers, who as human beings had touched only the bottom of life and dignity, as knights and chosen people. Encouraging them in such a state, he restored to them the confidence they had long since lost.
At the first meeting with the Serbian soldiers who sailed into Bizerte, he gave a magnificent speech in which he said, among other things:
"I greet in you the officers who led the army that the whole world admires. I greet in you the soldiers who were able with so much courage, enthusiasm and sacrifice to fight like a lion against a ten times stronger enemy, I greet the people in you ..."
Many testimonies of his human, paternal and chivalrous treatment of Serbs from the first meeting with them remain today.
Almost every day, Admiral Geprat visited the Lazouz camp and the hospitals where Serbian soldiers were accommodated, and he always made sure that every Serbian soldier received all the needs and complete care with the command, and especially with the medical staff.
If, sometimes driving his car through Bizerte, he saw a Serbian soldier, the admiral would stop the car and talk to that soldier at least briefly.
It is interesting that he always addressed Serbian soldiers in Serbian with the words:
"God help me, Serb brothers!" Do you need anything? ”
How much attention he paid to the condition of Serbian soldiers is best confirmed by the insult from those days, which, as a synonym of his personality and as a kind of criticism and jealousy of his superiors, followed him:
"Admiral Geprat and his Serbs!"
The event that happened during the unloading of one of the transports of Serbian soldiers in Bizerte will be remembered forever. Among the Serbian soldiers was a woman who was raped by enemy soldiers. Somehow ashamed of that, the Serbian soldiers tried to cover it with their bodies, to hide it. A crowd formed. It was dirty, lice-infested and torn, so the fragrant ladies of Bizerte recoiled at such a sight. Admiral Geprat approached to see what was happening and addressed the officer who commanded the machine:
"Why are you hiding this woman?"
The officer replied discreetly:
"... She is now carrying in her womb the child of an enemy soldier."
At these words, the admiral parted the soldiers, approached her gallantly and stood calmly in front of the woman. Then he bowed deeply, unbuckled his parade sword and laid it at the woman's feet, kissed her hand and said:
"Welcome, ma'am."
That is how this noble man paid tribute to the tragedy of one woman and one nation from when she originated.
For everything he did, Serbian soldiers poured all their love on the admiral, calling him "Serbian mother". And they expressed that love symbolically and with a magnificent parade that they organized as part of his departure from Bizerte.
As an expression of gratitude, Admiral Geprat was awarded the Order of the White Eagle with swords of the first order, the greatest Serbian decoration after Karadjordj's star.
The army and the people expressed their gratitude to Admiral Geprat in the best way during his visit to Belgrade on February 25, 1931, with a thunderous ovation "Long live France!" they carried it on their shoulders from the Main Railway Station to Slavija, where the main ceremony was planned.
Testament of Admiral Geprat
At the end of February 1931, a great Serbian friend from the war days, the famous French Admiral Emile Geprat, visited Belgrade for the first time. The French military leader was so popular in the Serbian army that they called him "Serbian mother".
Belgrade did not remember such a welcome. Tens of thousands of people shouted "Long live France!", At one point they lifted Admiral Geprat on their shoulders and carried him from the Main Railway Station all the way to Slavija, where the main ceremony was planned.
Along the entire street, which today bears his name, a "red carpet" was placed in honor of this great man.
At one point, Admiral Geprat was approached by a weeping woman, the mother of a soldier killed in the First World War, who left his bones far from his country, in Bizerte. She brought Admiral Geprat two fresh carnations, some Serbian soil and one request:
- - Bring this country. Save two cloves, even when they are dried. And when you are in Bizerte, visit my son's grave and lay this holy land instead of the unfortunate mother's carnation.
"I will go to the grave of your son, the hero," replied Admiral Geprat. - I will lay dried flowers and this Serbian land for which he died. I will kneel by the grave and devoutly pray to God for the soul of your child.
That unfortunate mother was Mrs. Zivka Nusic, whose son Miodrag fought in the ranks of the Serbian army for his country and died far from his homeland. More than two years have passed since the stay of Admiral Geprat and his wife in Belgrade. The poor mother knew nothing of the promise the French admiral was to fulfill to her son.
She waited, believed and hoped. One day, a letter arrived in the house from Bizerte, written by the hand of the French Admiral Geprat.
Geprat wrote to her:
"Ma'am,
You believed that I had forgotten my holy mission, by which you obliged me during my stay in Belgrade, in your beautiful homeland that we love so much. I'm not. Here I am in Bizerte, and at this moment I am returning from the Serbian cemetery. I could once, after the promise I gave you, put dried flowers and earth from your homeland on your son's grave. I laid two carnations and earth deep so that the wind would not blow them away. I inform you that I pray with all my heart in your name and mine for your dear child, for every Serbian hero who died for his homeland. Be, madam, confident in all my sympathies and in great affection for you and your beautiful homeland. Admiral Geprat. "
Grateful, Ms. Zivka Nusic responded to Admiral Geprat, emphasizing that she could never have thought that the celebrated hero of France could forget the promise made.
"Now that I am convinced that there is a grave of my son and that flowers were laid on it, picked by my hand, as well as that it is covered by a lump of Serbian land, his homeland, it is much easier for me."
And indeed, there are many Frenchmen that Serbs sincerely loved, but there was only one they adored - Admiral Geprat
Thank you for reading this article. I would be grateful if you would leave your opinion about the Admiral and this text in the comments. Regards to all.
A dog can foresee 5 evil states and 3 amazing things
Believe it or not, it has been proven that dogs can smell lung cancer from their owner's breath!
In addition to being able to train to find missing people and hidden drugs, explosives and other objects, dogs, thanks to their strong sense of smell, can detect diseases in their owners. In doing so, we are talking about the average pet, not about specially trained animals!
"A dog's sense of smell can smell units in a trillion molecules, so something that can be compared to a drop of water in an Olympic pool, that's the size of a molecule a dog can detect. They have 40 times more receptors than humans and I think it's inconceivable that let's experience, "explains Dr. Vet. Mario Babić for 24satahr. He points out that thanks to that ability, dogs can smell just about every change in our body.
"Everything that changes our smell, even at the molecular level, is comprehensible to the dog and he will smell it. The problem is that we have yet to learn what are the conditions or diseases that change us to the extent that it becomes available to dogs, so that we can teach them to react and thus save our lives in the role of helpers, but we should know that a dog is not a machine, so that what it smells carries a high probability, not a 100% solution. the probability is very high and ranges up to 80%, but there is still the possibility that it is only a probability, not a fact ", says Dr. Babić.
He also pointed out that British scientists are currently developing a robot to help diagnose breast cancer, which would analyze dog-like odor molecules and predict the degree of cancer malignancy, but that is still far from being realized.
These 9 unexpected conditions a dog can discover about its owner thanks only to its sense of smell:
**1. Parkinson's disease and migraines**
This idea was encouraged by a woman from Scotland who otherwise has a super sense of smell, and even six years before the appearance of Parkinson's disease, she noticed that her husband had a different smell. After that, they started working in Manchester on training dogs that would be able to detect the onset of this disease. In addition, they found that a dog can smell when a person will start having migraines ", explained Dr. Babić.
**2. Changes in blood sugar levels**
Scientific studies have confirmed that dogs can detect a drop in blood glucose levels. By the smell of our sweat, they can determine exactly what condition we are in, which helps people who suffer from diabetes. Specially trained dogs can help them detect the problem before dangerous symptoms arrive, so they can take medication or seek help in time. In such situations, the dog will show signs of stress and try to attract the owner's attention.
**3. Cancer**
Due to cancer, cells function differently than in a healthy person, they divide rapidly so that the tumor can grow. Damaged cells produce a specific protein that dogs can smell. It has been proven that dogs can smell lung cancer from their owner's breath, or prostate and kidney cancer from the smell of urine. There are also indications that dogs can even smell changes in skin cells and detect melanoma, as well as colon cancer. In some world clinics, they even use specially trained dogs that can smell breast cancer at an early stage.
**4. Identity**
Most people recognize others by the way they look, but not dogs. They rely on their snout for recognition. For dogs, each individual has a unique scent like a fingerprint. Experts also claim that dogs can smell familiar people or places even if that smell is mixed with perfume or its presence is obscured by someone else. Additionally, dogs distinguish identical twins only by smell. This ability is used by the police and other services when they need to search for lost people or in other emergencies.
**5. Epileptic seizure**
Dogs can detect that an epileptic seizure is being prepared for the owner 45 minutes before it occurs. Although the exact mechanism of detection is not known, it is assumed that the dog smells a special smell that a person emits before the attack. In that case, the dog may behave strangely, bark or bark. Also, during the attack, dogs usually stay with their owners, guarding them.
**6. He knows you touched another dog**
Dogs send messages to each other using pheromones, a chemical compound secreted in the urine, through skin, fur and fecal matter. If you have visited a friend who has a dog, your pet will know it. He'll sniff you when you get home to find out who you're hanging out with. The information that the dog will receive tells him what kind it is, how big the dog is and whether it is healthy. If he is a more jealous type, you could experience offended behavior and refusal of contact.
**7. Pregnancy**
Every, even the smallest change in our body odor, the dog will immediately smell. If you are pregnant, the body goes through hormonal changes that your pet simply cannot ignore. Experts say that a dog can detect the owner's pregnancy very early only by the smell and the way your body moves. Because you have become a new person for them, they could change their behavior towards you.
**8. Storm and hurricane**
Dogs are closer to nature than humans. By sniffing the air, they can predict even the smallest changes in weather conditions. In addition, they have a sharpened sense of geomagnetic field and vibrations, so their prediction of weather changes can be really reliable.
**9. Addison's disease**
An adrenal gland disease that can endanger a patient's life - they often faint and need resuscitation. The dog feels it and starts behaving strangely.

Who is Vera Blagojevic?
Did you know that there was such a brave girl who was beaten, mutilated, sick, got up and said: "Shoot, victory is ours. We are defiantly dying for freedom."
Young Vera Blagojević had an impressive appearance - blonde hair, slender stature and tall stature, mischievous, prudent, a fighter for rights. She was also a fearless girl who lost her life at the age of 22 for the freedom of her people.
She was also loved because she shared everyday little things with her poorer friends and visited them almost every day in the "Queen Mary" dormitory, not knowing how to spend time in the dormitory that would bear her name years later. She was posthumously proclaimed a national hero by the decree of Josip Broz Tito. This is the story of Vera's short life.
The Blagojevic family and the fighting Vera
Vera Blagojević was born on May 16, 1920 in Belgrade. Originally from a very respectable family, from the father of the lawyer Jovan Blagojević and the mother of Ana, a housewife who dedicated herself to the family. When Vera was three years old, the Blagojević family made the decision to move from Belgrade to Šabac, where Vera spent her childhood. She finished elementary school and high school in Sabac, and even then, although withdrawn at first glance, she showed incredible fighting spirit, and with her intellect she excelled in school and society. Very hardworking and with a lot of interest, Vera regularly visited the French Home in Šabac and learned French so well.
Her resistance to injustice was evident even at the end of primary school when she organized a strike due to the bad behavior of certain professors towards the students in the school she attended.
Her school always "went well", so she was an excellent student and the best student of Sabac High School, and her graduation thesis, which was declared the best in her generation, was inspired by Njegoš's verse "Flowers will grow on the grave for a generation to come". These verses seemed to foretell her fate.
"It's a thorny path where roses don't bloom, but it's the only path I want to take."
In parallel with graduating from high school, Vera began to show great interest in politics. Those who remember her, emphasized her friendliness and gentle nature, and even then she gathered a group of friends around her with whom she talked about the situation in society.
Together with his best friends at the time, he became a member of the Sabac Library "Sabac Public Library and Reading Room". She loved and often read the works of Dostoevsky, Victor Hugo and Tolstoy, her favorite writers.
Soon, Vera began to move in the circles of "leftists", and her political affiliation was strongly influenced by a close friend from the school, Stojanka, who also lived in Vera's father's house for a while. Among the significant influences on her political affiliation was Vera's teacher Zika Popovic, a communist and manager of the Sabac library.
Thus, in the spring of 1937, at the age of 17, Vera became a proud member of the League of Communist Youth of Yugoslavia - SKOJ. She ran home to tell T-shirt Ana the good news, but she was not happy about it, because her mother was worried, knowing what bad things could bring her doing politics. She said that dangers were lurking on all sides, especially for free-minded people like Vera. She was fully aware of that, but she made it clear what she wanted: "It's a thorny path where roses don't bloom, but it's the only path I want to take."
Return to Belgrade to study medicine
After graduating from high school, Vera returns to her native Belgrade. Against the will of her parents, who thought that it was too much for her health, which was fragile, in 1938 she enrolled at the Medical Faculty in Belgrade. Her engagement in politics does not abate either, so after the beginning of her studies, she enrolls in the "Advanced Student Movement".
Unlike other students, Vera came from a wealthy family, which enabled her to live independently in a rented apartment. However, her pleasant life was not an obstacle to sympathizing with less happy friends whom she always tried to help in every way. Since her best friends lived in the "Queen Mary" women's dormitory, she spent most of her free time there with them. Students who were communists, like Vera, had a rule that they often, especially during the holidays, when packages arrived from families with food, distributed to friends who were poorer and whose families could not afford to send packages.
The first female member of the party and again the city of Sabac
Vera's political activity continued during her studies. Her biggest engagement was in the SKOJ organization at the University of Belgrade. In the winter of 1940, she was officially accepted into the membership of the CPY - Communist Party of Yugoslavia.
After the beginning of the war in April 1941, Vera returned on foot from Belgrade to Sabac. Upon his return, one of the party's first engagements was to assist in the work and organization of SKOJ. Due to her great efforts and efforts, the results were seen very quickly, so the work of the Local Committee of SKOJ for the city of Sabac was renewed.
Her enthusiasm and energy were unstoppable. She constantly worked on educating the youth and women of Šabac about the importance of politics for their society, and her main aspiration was to include them in the political struggle and the struggle for the right to vote, which she considered the most important. Also in the same year, the District Committee of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia was formed for the district of Podrinje, of which Vera became the only female member, and at the same time the secretary of the youth branch of the committee.
In addition to political engagement, a thin girl, blonde hair and poor health, she participated in the fights without a shred of fear. She did not give up even when her best friend from the faculty was killed in the battles for Sabac in 1941.
Because of her entire commitment and prominence in society, the fight for women's rights and membership in the banned party, she bothered the occupiers. The police of the City of Belgrade Administration have been collecting information about Vera's movements for a long time. Although she withdrew illegally, she did not calm down, despite the danger that her opponents would discover her. On one occasion, while she was carrying leaflets and all party material to Loznica on her own responsibility, she was intercepted and arrested. However, as she never surrendered, she managed, with the help of her men, members of the Macva-Partisan detachment who organized her escape, to eventually escape.
At the end of 1941, what her parents were most afraid of happened, and Vera became seriously ill. During the withdrawal of the Macva-Partisan detachment, the sick and wounded were left in the village of Tekeriš, near Loznica. Vera was among them. During the action of "cleaning" the Macva region, in March 1942, they also found Vera, and after a long and severe torture, she was handed over to the Gestapo service in Šabac.
"Shoot the victory is ours. We are defiantly dying for slo .."
The Gestapo had no regard for Vera's serious health condition. She was forced and blackmailed to confess and betray all those who worked for the People's Liberation Movement in exchange for freedom. And Vera, already distorted by the blows she received, just kept silent, holding on bravely and proudly, never wanting to betray anyone. As they could not extract any information or knowledge from her, after a long torture, they ruthlessly sentenced her to death.
Vera Blagojević was shot on March 18, 1942, at the age of twenty-two. She gave her life for the freedom of her people, remaining consistent with her beliefs.
While she was waiting for her turn, she raised her hand and said: "Shoot, victory is ours. We are defiantly dying for the word ...", but it was interrupted by the sound of machine guns.
The fatal event took place in the Shicara forest near the village of Klenak, and about 70 other people were shot with it. The news that their daughter was shot by Vera's parents was received by detainees in the Banjica camp.
People's hero Vera Blagojević
Because of all the merits and because she bravely gave her life for freedom and the fatherland, the then President of the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia, Josip Broz Tito, posthumously proclaimed Vera Blagojević a national hero with her decree on July 7, 1953.
In memory of Vera, the Women's Student Dormitory "Kraljice Marija", where she spent her student days, was renamed the Dormitory "Vera Blagojević".
Also, due to the reduction in the number of students of the Islamic religion who came to Belgrade to study, the former Home for Muslims in Belgrade "Osman Đikić" changed its purpose and was placed under the management of the already existing home "Vera Blagojević".
This second building, located in the immediate vicinity, in Dalmatinska Street, is today called "Vera Blagojević II".

Preparing for the position of junior programmer, you have certainly read a lot of tips on which programming language to choose to start with, how to position yourself, what applications to make, but rarely anyone will tell you how to actually do the job.
Simon Holdorf has been working as a programmer for a long time and passes on his knowledge to young people to help them cope more easily with the new job they have chosen. He shared some tips for juniors who are just starting out, and we pass them on to those who chose this invitation as their own.
Appreciate yourself
Remember that companies need you, not you. In western countries, developers charge a lot for their services, which often leads foreign clients to turn to the eastern market, including Serbia.
In the case of programming, this does not mean that you will have to lower the price of your work in the local market, but that you will continue to earn more than others, and you will be charged less than foreigners.
Never lower your price due to customer needs. Thus, in the beginning, you will lose not only your credibility, but also your reputation and enthusiasm to finish the job well.
Invest wisely in your education
Dedicate yourself to your education and do not try to learn as much as possible in a short time. Consider all the options and choose one that offers you knowledge that is structured and grouped so that you acquire all the necessary skills and that allows you to learn to think like a programmer.
Not every educational program will allow you to do that, but the best ones will certainly offer everything you need - work on real projects with the help of modern equipment under the guidance of a mentor. It’s just up to you to make the most of it.
In your free time, read, practice and work independently. Do not wait for a job to have the opportunity to work, but create a project for yourself to improve your knowledge.
Don't stay in bad places
Never think that your current job is the best and the only option you have. Keep in mind that all IT companies appreciate quality developers and that the need for such staff is always current.
If the current company does not suit you for some reason, you feel like you are under pressure, the team is not good, there is no good energy, then change it - without waiting.
You always work "from the side"
Independent projects that you will do outside of work and to which you will dedicate time are the best way to improve. At first, these projects will not bring you too much money, but the experience you will gain is invaluable.
So don’t turn down opportunities that come your way outside of work. You never know when a project may turn into a serious business.
Fix your profile on LinkedIn
Reputation building is an indispensable part of every developer's job. Someone can only know that you are a great programmer if they meet you or come to your CV in some way.
That is why promotion on LinkedIn is a great solution. A huge number of job offers reach developers this way. So take the time to edit and update your profile regularly.
Don't be ashamed to ask a question
Always ask when you don't know something. Be curious, even when you become an experienced programmer.
At the beginning of your career, it is especially important to forget about vanity. Dedicate yourself to developing your knowledge, not competing with others.
When you have a senior "at hand", bury him with questions that bother you and try to find answers to them as you know and can.
Learn how
First of all, you have to take a zero step. Choose the right educational program that will feed you with all the information you need. By now you have realized that these are not short courses of several months. Commitment to learning, improvement and the will to become better are necessary. So to begin with, dedicate at least a year during which you will study, work and ask everything you want from experienced mentors who have been in this business for years.
I hope these secrets will help you. Thank you for reading this article. Regards to all. Don't forget to subscribe by liking and commenting on this article. Thanks :)
Learn from your mistakes and don’t be afraid to brush up: Tips for beginners in programming
Although in theory everything sounds simple, it takes one year to get the title of a programming expert and learn all the necessary techniques needed for a successful career.
To make your journey from beginner to experienced programmer easier, here are some tips to help you progress as you learn and eventually achieve your goal of finding a well-paid job in the IT industry.
1. **Seek help whenever you have a problem**
If you encounter an obstacle during your studies or later in your career that you cannot overcome on your own, the Internet is a great place where you will always be able to find help. The developed digital community will provide you with answers to all possible questions and open new vistas for you, with which you will become a better programmer.
Many beginners are hesitant to ask a question due to uncertainty, which is a big mistake. Developers love to help each other.
Where to seek help? While more experienced developers answer the problems that plague them on platforms like Reddit and StackOverflow, beginners are recommended WebmasterWorld and Google Groups.
While online presence is very important, remember that it is equally important to make friends with as many fellow developers as possible. Information technology (IT) jobs generally require teamwork, so great relationships and teamwork are characteristics that will make you more professional.
**2. Learn to accept criticism**
Just as you need to have the courage to ask when something is not clear to you, you also need to be self-critical. In order to succeed as a programmer, you need to learn to accept advice and well-meaning criticism.
During your professional career, the program codes you create will encounter frequent criticism from different people. It is up to you to accept them in the right way. It is true that not every criticism will always be in place, but that does not matter. If you take criticism seriously, you will be able to progress.
Also, it is very important to understand that the program code does not always have to be perfect. In most cases, developers make an effort to meet deadlines for certain projects, while the perfection of the code is in the background.
**3. Learn from your mistakes**While writing the code, try to spend as much time as possible reading and analyzing messages that notify you of bugs. This way, you will reduce the percentage of possible errors each time you create the code. In addition, this approach to programming can reveal more effective angles for perceiving problems when you do not expect it.
I hope that these tips will help at least some of you and serve in further improvement.

Hi read.cash society, today I published an article related to creating applications for iOS, Andriod and Windows, and now I want to introduce you to the programming language HTML and CSS.
Hi read.cash society, today I published an article related to creating applications for iOS, Andriod and Windows, and now I want to introduce you to the programming language HTML and CSS.
Whatever your profession, knowing HTML and CSS can bring you career advancement. Just as knowledge of foreign languages has been a guarantee for finding a job for years, so today programming languages have become a shortcut to a well-paid job.
Although there are many languages that can increase your price in the job market, HTML and CSS are considered the basic languages needed for web programming. That is why below we present all the advantages of learning these languages.
HTML and CSS - what are they and what are they for?
HTML is the basic language for creating web pages. It is used to write codes, which will allow your site to function. CSS, on the other hand, is used to style and give a visual identity to elements you previously created in HTML.
What does this mean in practice? In CSS, you will specify colors, fonts, text format and everything else that visitors can see on the site. Writing codes in HTML allows all these elements to be active, that is, to click on one of them to perform the action you wanted.
The easiest and most practical languages for website design
Why is it worth learning these two languages? If you master the basics of HTML and CSS, you will understand how the web works. You will be able to create sites, which is a skill that will always be very useful. But they are also used in other sub-areas of information technology. These languages will benefit you, whether you want to do design, marketing or online programming.
Perhaps their biggest advantage is that the mentioned languages are among the easiest to learn. Even if you have no prior knowledge, you can reach the level of knowledge about HTML and CSS that you need to find a job thanks to these languages after a year of schooling. By learning from special programs in such a short time, you will acquire all the skills you need to start a career on the web.
HTML and CSS will open the door to the world of information technology
These two languages will allow you to learn how languages work and gain a foundation that you will be able to upgrade very easily later. Learning any other language will be much easier for you if you have previously mastered HTML and CSS.
Although HTML and CSS skills alone are enough to find a job that will make you a great living, learning PHP, Java, JavaScript or another language will give you the opportunity to do a variety of jobs in the field of information technology. .
Why are HTML and CSS the ideal choice for everyone?
The answer to this question is very simple: there is no better and easier way to step into one of the professions in the field of information technology than learning these languages. You won't need too much effort and time to master HTML and CSS, and you will get a great foundation for building a successful career, which will provide you with security. With focused learning, you can become competitive in the job market in less than a year. If you have been looking for a job for a long time, and writing web codes seems interesting to you, gaining knowledge about the application of these two languages is the ideal choice for you.

Everything you need to know about creating apps for iOS, Android and Windows
**Feniks25**
**17.11.2020**.
Hello read.cash society. I am new here and I will try to write you a lot of interesting and useful content related to programming and IT. If there are any flaws in the current writing, don’t mind, this is my first article.
The great popularity of smartphones has changed the way the internet is accessed. The best proof of this change is Instagram, one of the most powerful social networks, which was founded primarily for mobile devices, while its website is a secondary platform.
The proliferation of mobile applications has made the experts involved in their creation some of the best paid workers in the information technology market, and their skills have become the most sought after. Given the great need for developers of this type, programming applications for Google Play, the iOS App Store, and even the less popular Windows Store (formerly the Windows Phone Store) can become a lucrative business for anyone who acquires the necessary skills.
Learn more about programming for each of these three platforms below.
**iOS**
Although the Android platform is by far the most represented worldwide, creating applications for iPhones has its advantages. Namely, applications for the iOS operating system offer the opportunity to make the most money, because in practice it has been proven that users of Apple devices are willing to spend the most money to buy applications.
Before you decide on an education that will allow you to create apps for iOS, you should also know that Apple maintains far stricter criteria for placing apps on the market than is the case for the Google Play Store and Windows Store. To encode applications for iOS, you will need knowledge of the Objective-C language, or knowledge of working in Swift, which represents the future of programming for this platform.
**Android**
To program applications for Android, you will need to master the Java programming language, which can be an advantage in the long run. Once you master this language, you will be ready for a variety of projects in the field of information technology. You can acquire the skills needed to create applications for Android after only one year of studying in a specialized program at an educational institution that deals with the training of IT staff.
Programming for the Android platform is considered easier compared to programming for iOS and Windows. In addition, when installing the application on the Google Play Store, the rules are not as rigorous as for the other two mentioned platforms.
**Windows Phone**
The Windows platform is by far the least represented, and since Microsoft stopped updating its latest operating system it has been almost non-existent. However, if Microsoft succeeds in its attempt to standardize desktop, tablet, and mobile software, opting for this operating system may be a good choice. Although the Windows Phone Store has been merged with the Windows PC app store, Windows plans to launch a reduced mobile phone operating system that will run on Android, so it is possible that the Windows app market will revive.
For those interested in this world, Windows applications are created in C # or JavaScript programming languages.
****Why is it good to be an application developer?****
In addition to a pretty good income, the ability to work from home and find a job whenever you want, creating mobile applications has other advantages.
