Bert is a Java Champion, a leader of the Dutch Java User Group, and the CTO and co-founder of OpenValue that he started in 2017. The conversation spans all of Bert's experiences as a software developer, including hacking and gaming as a six-year old, contributing to the computer lab fire in school, blowing out the family's phone bill with his first modem, getting an advanced CS education at university, engaging the Java community globally, and building his own software company. Bert also offers some interesting advice for how people can continue learning and growing and contributing to the community at Java events. He also details why Java is special and why developers embrace the technology: "Java is one of the only languages I know of that has been active and current for so long. And one of the keys is the marvel of engineering in the Java Virtual Machine." Bert: https://twitter.com/bjschrijver Jim: https://twitter.com/jimgris Full Article

ert Impact of corruption prevention measures at national and sectoral levels in focus at OSCE-supported expert meeting in Kyrgyzstan By feeds.osce.org Published On :: Thu, 26 May 2016 14:41:16 +0000 ISSYK-KUL, Kyrgyzstan, 26 May 2016 – A two-day regional expert seminar which started today gathers some 60 anti-corruption practitioners, experts and policy-makers from 12 countries in Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus and Central Asia to discuss effective preventive measures to combat corruption in the extractive industries and education sectors and to exchange best practices. Participants discussed how to improve government accountability and transparency in managing natural resources and assessed how to mitigate negative effects of the so-called “resource curse”. They also focused on corruption in the education sector, and how to enhance the quantity, quality, efficiency of, and access to education systems. “The OSCE Centre in Bishkek is strongly committed to supporting the Kyrgyz Government in countering corruption and developing projects and initiatives aimed at strengthening good governance, economic growth and public integrity for the benefit of the Kyrgyz people,” said Yulia Minaeva, Senior Economic and Environmental Officer at the OSCE Centre in Bishkek. Ermelinda Meksi, Deputy Head of the Office of the Co-ordinator of OSCE Economic and Environmental Activities, said: “Corruption, weak governance, and lack of transparency and rule of law undermine economic growth and impede trust in public persons and government institutions. Bribery and embezzlement of state resources deter domestic and foreign investments and deprive citizens of important public services. If unchecked, corruption can provoke social strife, fuel insecurity and even lead to conflicts.” The practice-oriented and interactive seminar combined expert presentations, roundtable discussions and group work. It benefited from the participation of representatives of the UN Development Programme, the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, and the Open Society Initiative. Olga Savran, manager of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Anti-Corruption Network for Eastern Europe and Central Asia (ACN), said: “This seminar helps public officials responsible for preventing corruption at national and sectoral levels learn about effective practical measures that do work, that improve the lives of citizens, and prevent the waste of public money.” The seminar is co-organized by the OSCE Centre in Bishkek, the Office of the Co-ordinator of OSCE Economic and Environmental Activities (OCEEA) and the OECD ACN. It is hosted by the Kyrgyz Government and held as part of the OSCE Centre in Bishkek’s Economic and Environmental Dimension activities.Related StoriesTo mark World Day against Trafficking in Persons OSCE Centre in Bishkek supports public awareness raising campaignOSCE Centre in Bishkek supports summer school on topical issues of police reformOSCE Centre in Bishkek trains defence lawyers and prosecutors on right to liberty and freedom from arbitrary arrest or detention Full Article OSCE Centre in Bishkek Secretariat Economic activities Good governance Central Asia Press release
ert OSCE Centre in Bishkek trains defence lawyers and prosecutors on right to liberty and freedom from arbitrary arrest or detention By feeds.osce.org Published On :: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 07:39:26 +0000 BISHKEK, 28 July 2016 – A two-day training conducted by the OSCE Centre in Bishkek for 14 defence lawyers and 12 officers from the Prosecutor’s office on the right to liberty and freedom from arbitrary arrest or detention, ended today in the Kyrgyz capital. The workshop focused on the international framework for measures of restraint, as well as the internationally recognized constitutional right to institute proceedings in cases of violations. The detention of minors, persons with disabilities, women with children, or defendants in need of continued medical treatment and hospitalization were among the topics discussed, and participants learned more about their specific concerns to ensure that the restraint measures taken comply with human rights standards. “The right to liberty is a basic fundamental right, protected by international human rights law and enshrined in the Kyrgyz Constitution,” said Anete Erdmane, acting Senior Human Dimension Officer at the OSCE Centre. “To ensure that restrictions on liberty are applied in compliance with the law and that other human rights are not violated as a result of the deprivation of liberty, it is important that prosecutors and lawyers are aware of the relevant standards and obligations. In line with its mandate, the OSCE Centre works to improve the administration of justice and strengthen the rule of law in Kyrgyzstan.” The course was delivered by Ulugbek Azimov, a well-known national expert in the field, while Sergey Poduzov, an international human rights law expert from Russia, also led a training session. The training course is part of the OSCE Centre’s project on promoting a comprehensive approach to the rule of law, administration of justice, prevention of torture, and capacity building.

Robert Baer —autor de Soldado de la CIA, que sirvió de base a la película Syriana— y Dayna eran dos agentes de la CIA cuyo trabajo cotidiano consistía en actuar en secreto en los más diversos escenarios del mundo, de Bosnia a Tajikistán, pasando por Beirut o Bagdad, con el fin de participar en conspiraciones, atentados, guerras civiles y asesinatos, en una extraordinaria secuencia de episodios que comienza en Damasco en 1990 y concluye en Lahore en 2008. Dayna y Bob nos hablan con naturalidad y sencillez de estas experiencias, que eran para ellos las habituales de su trabajo, y nos cuentan cómo los riesgos y las emociones compartidos acabaron uniéndoles como pareja. David lgnatius ha dicho que ésta es «la mejor historia real de espionaje que haya leído jamás: combina el riesgo y los peligros del espionaje real, con la estupidez de la burocracia que lo dirige y la dislocación emocional que produce la vida en la clandestinidad».

Parets del Vallès (Barcelona) - 1984 Información de contracubierta:En la selva del Amazonas, cada paso puede conducirlos a una trampa mortal...Todos los peligros de la selva y todas las riquezas que esconde una de las últimas regiones vírgenes de la tierra aguardan a la expedición que se interna en el corazón del Mato Grosso en busca de una legendaria Ciudad Perdida y de un tesoro nazi. Le llevó treinta años a Spaatz, un antiguo SS que ahora se llama Smith, encontrar la pista del camarada que le traicionó cuando la guerra terminaba y huyó con el oro del Tercer Reich. Y Spaatz está decidido, cueste lo que cueste, a vengar esa traición. Pero los hombres que le acompañan en la expedición no son lo que parecen, y tienen sus propios y secretos motivos para estar allí. Y en medio de la selva amazónica, en una tierra donde sólo rige la ley del más fuerte o del más astuto, las batallas son sin cuartel... MI COMENTARIO:Más una novela de aventuras que de espías, es al final de la misma que uno se entera que varios de los personajes son agentes secretos de distintas organizaciones.Ambientada en el Mato Groso brasileño, tiene los condimentos típicos de una novela de aventuras: escenario tropical, peligros provenientes de tribus de indígenas muy primitivos, una ciudad perdida que contiene tesoros antiquísimos, una travesía jalonada por imprevistos, etc. La mejor parte de la novela es la que justamente transcurre durante el viaje de los protagonistas a la ciudad perdida. Un antiguo militar nazi, con su identidad cambiada, busca a un camarada que lo traicionó durante los últimos días de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, al llevarse importantes cuotas de los tesoros saqueados por el Tercer Reich. Acompañado por personajes de distinto origen, llega a la ciudad perdida donde se encuentra con su destino.El final es despachado por MacLean en pocas páginas, casi a las apuradas, presentando la resolución a multitud de interrogantes. Pareciera que el autor se hubiera cansado de su propia novela y la quisiera clausurar de un tirón. Me parece que el argumento, que había ido ganando en interés (MacLean describe con gran oficio el recorrido por la selva), termina implosionando en un final decepcionante. ADAPTACIÓN CINEMATOGRÁFICA:En 1989 se realizó una película basada en el libro: River of Death, dirigida por Steve Carver y protagonizada por Michael Dudikoff (John Hamilton), Robert Vaughn (Dr. Wolfgang Manteuffel), Donald Pleasence (Heinrich Spaatz), Herbert Lom (Cor. Ricardo Diaz), L.Q. Jones (Eddie Hiller), Sarah Maur Thorp (Anna Blakesley), Cynthia Erland (Maria) y Foziah Davidson (Dalia). En el ámbito hispanohablante, el film fue titulado El río de muerte, aunque también fue conocido como Río sangriento.

En la novela hay un elemento de suspense que se debe disfrutar hasta el final.Sin embargo, queremos advertir que los dramáticos sucesos relatados transcurrieron real y secretamente a fines del siglo pasado en Alemania, Jamaica, Chicago, Nueva York, Madrid, La Habana y París. (Algunas consecuencias de aquellos hechos todavía perduran.)Pero hay más: Trama es también una novela de amor. Sólo que de amor entre tres —dos hombres y una mujer— lo que complica morbosamente el relato.Y es una novela policíaca, porque contiene todos los elementos básicos del género: el crimen, los criminales, las pistas y el infatigable detective.Y es una novela de aventuras, en la que cada capítulo depara un suceso sorprendente, aumenta un grado la ansiedad del lector y lo precipita hacia el siguiente.Y es una novela sicológica, porque los personajes principales comparecen con personalidades bien definidas y características diferentes.Pero —además— es una gran novela a secas. Un libro escrito con una prosa ceñida, transparente, siempre al servicio de la carpintería interior de la obra, lo que explica que, una vez leída, no sea fácil olvidarse de la historia ni de sus protagonistas principales.
