Camille Auer wanted to change her gender, was diagnosed with a mental illness and is now making art on the theme – "People should have the right to their own body"

Camille Auer halusi korjata sukupuolensa, diagnosoitiin mielisairaaksi ja nyt hän tekee taidetta aiheesta - "Ihmisellä pitäisi olla oikeus omaan kehoonsa"


Dozens of patient reports are hanging from the ceiling of the Project Room gallery of the Academy of Fine Arts.

Kuvataideakatemian Project room -gallerian katosta roikkuu kymmeniä potilaskertomuksia.


The name of Camille Auer is written on every one of them.

Jokaisessa niissä lukee Camille Auerin nimi.


The reports tell a long story of what kind of an interpretation other people have written of Auer and her identity –

Paperit kertovat monivuotisen tarinan siitä, kuinka ulkopuoliset ihmiset ovat kirjoittaneet ylös tulkintansa Auerista ja tämän identiteetistä.


Päättäneet hänen puolestaan kuka hän on.


"I wanted to disclose my personal medical history to highlight the violence of the whole process", Auer says.

"Halusin kertoa henkilökohtaisen hoitohistoriani, jotta prosessin väkivaltaisuus tulisi näkyväksi", Auer kertoo.


Here, "process" refers to her sex reassignment procedure.

Prosessilla hän viittaa sukupuolenkorjausprosessiin.


It is a many-year examination period, including meetings with psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses and physicians.

Se on usein vuosia kestävä tutkimusjakso johon kuuluu tapaamisia psykologien, psykiatrien, hoitajien ja lääkäreiden kanssa.


The process starts with a referral to diagnose a gender identity disorder. These diagnoses are performed in Tampere and Helsinki.

Prosessi käynnistyy lähetteellä "sukupuoli-identiteetin häiriön" diagnosointitutkimuksiin, joita suoritetaan Tampereella ja Helsingissä.


Auerin kohdalla prosessi käynnistyi neljä vuotta sitten.


Before this, she had already been using oestrogen ordered from the internet and was also otherwise far in her own reassignment procedure.

Jo ennen tätä hän oli käyttänyt internetin kautta tilaamaansa estrogeeniä ja oli muutenkin hyvin pitkällä omassa korjausprosessissaan.


Even though she felt like a woman, Finnish legislation states that an individual must undergo a reassignment procedure before the gender can also be altered legally.

Hän koki olevansa nainen, mutta Suomen lain mukaan henkilön täytyy käydä läpi korjausprosessi, jotta sukupuoli voidaan korjata myös juridisesti.


The Act on the Legal Recognition of the Gender of Transsexuals (563/2002), or the trans act, obligates transgender people to a compulsory sterilisation so that their correct gender can be registered, for example, in the Population Register Centre and their passport.

Translaki, eli laki transseksuaalin sukupuolen vahvistamisesta (563/2002) velvoittaa transsukupuoliset ihmiset pakkosterilisaatioon, jotta oikea sukupuoli saadaan esimerkiksi väestönrekisterikeskukseen ja passiin.


Currently, each person about to change their gender is required to have a psychiatric diagnosis and a certificate of their inability to reproduce.

Tällä hetkellä jokaiselta sukupuoltaan korjaavalta vaaditaan psykiatrista diagnoosia ja todistusta lisääntymiskyvyttömyydestä.


People should have the right to decide on their own body.

Ihmiselle kuuluu oikeus päättää omasta kehostaan.


"This situation is intolerable and in violation of human rights", Auer says.

"Tämä tilanne on sietämätön ja loukkaa ihmisoikeuksia", sanoo Auer.


Amendments to the Finnish trans act have been on the table for long.

Translain uudistamisesta on puhuttu Suomessa jo pitkään.


The UN Human Rights Council has issued eight concerns regarding the act, and the European Court of Human Rights has a precedent that obligates parties to the European Convention of Human Rights to adhere to the right of self-determination.

YK:n ihmisoikeusneuvosto on antanut laista kahdeksan huomautusta ja Euroopan ihmisoikeustuomioistuimessa on ennakkopäätös, joka velvoittaa Euroopan ihmisoikeussopimuksen osapuolet noudattamaan itsemääräämisoikeutta.


The former Government of Finland prepared the amendments to the act under Susanne Huovinen, the then Minister of Social Affairs and Health.

Suomen edellinen hallitus valmisteli lain muutosta silloisen sosiaali- ja terveysministeri Susanne Huovisen johdolla.


After the following elections, the Finns Party received seats in the Government.

Tuli vaalit ja Perussuomalaiset nousivat hallitukseen.


Now, the amendments are again at a standstill


due to internal disagreements that are not even related to this particular act.

Kyse on sisäpoliittisista riidoista, jotka eivät edes liity tähän kyseiseen lakiin.


"The Government is not willing to handle the act, as there are disagreements over the amendments within the Government", says Frank Johansson, director of Amnesty Finland.

"Hallitus ei halua nostaa sitä pöydälle, koska hallituksen sisällä on erimielisyyksiä lain muuttamisesta", kertoo Amnestyn Suomen osaston toiminnanjohtaja Frank Johansson.


The front of the exhibition area is dominated by two large installations.

Näyttelytilan etuosaa hallitsevat kaksi suurta installaatiota.


One of these is made of the packages and instructions of medicinal products used by Auer.

Toinen niistä muodostuu Auerin käyttämien lääkkeiden pakkauksista ja käyttöohjeista.


Any visitor to the patient record installation can read, for example, the interpretation a psychologist working in the transgender department of Tampere University Hospital has made of Auer.

Potilaskertomus-installaatiossa kuka tahansa kävijä voi lukea esimerkiksi Tampereen yliopistollisen sairaalan transpolin psykologin tulkinnan Auerista.


The psychologist met Camille Auer two times and, on the basis of these meetings, wrote a report that would define Auer's rights to receive treatment and assistance.

Psykologi tapasi Camille Auerin kaksi kertaa ja kirjoitti näiden perusteella kertomuksen, joka tulisi määrittelemään Auerin oikeuden hoidon sekä avun saamiseen.


The patient's sense of reality is reported to be close to shaking.

Tutkittavan todellisuudentaju näyttäytyy alttiina horjumiselle.


The patient's conception of herself seems to be disorganised as a borderline case and the unstable features of her personality are emphasised.

Tutkittavan käsitys itsestä näyttäytyy rajatilatasoisella tavalla hajanaisena ja persoonallisuuteen liittyvät epävakaat piirteet korostuvat.


Auer does not recognise herself from these reports.

Auer ei tunnistanut itseään näistä kuvauksista.


"It was shocking to hear that I was diagnosed as mentally ill", Auer says.

"Oli järkytys kuulla, että minut diagnosoitiin mielisairaaksi", Auer sanoo.


What was even more shocking was that Auer was not given access to gender reassignment surgery.

Vielä suurempi järkytys oli, kun Auerille ei myönnetty sukupuolenkorjaushoitoa.


According to the nursing staff, she did not have sufficient resources to start the process.

Hoitohenkilökunnan mukaan hänen voimavaransa eivät olleet riittävät prosessin aloittamiseen.


Häneltä kiellettiin oma identiteettinsä.


On that day on 11 February 2015, Auer walked out of the meeting and smashed a TV in the waiting room of the transgender department.

Silloin 11. helmikuuta 2015 Auer käveli ulos tapaamisesta ja potkaisi transpolin odotusaulan television hajalle.


Later, that TV evolved into a Monument for the Excluded, a work of art through which Auer reflects on her experiences in power and how it is exercised.

Myöhemmin tuosta televisiosta syntyi taideteos nimeltään Monument for the Excluded, jossa Auer reflektoi kokemustaan vallasta ja sen käyttämisestä.


"It's crazy that anyone defined as a woman at birth can have their breasts enlarged. But, to have breasts removed altogether, a diagnosis is needed", Auer says.

"On hullua, että kuka tahansa syntymässä naiseksi määritelty ihminen voi suurennuttaa rintansa, mutta rintojen poistamiseen tarvitsee diagnoosin", Auer kertoo.


You do not own your body if you feel that your gender is not the one defined at birth.

Kehosi ei ole sinun omasi, jos koet olevasi muuta kuin syntymässä määritelty sukupuolesi määrää.


Unfortunately, Auer's experience is not unique.

Auerin kokemus ei valitettavasti ole ainoa laatuaan.


For many, a gender reassignment process is tougher mentally than physically as a result of medical operations.

Sukupuolenkorjausprosessi on monelle rankempi henkisistä syistä kuin puhtaasti lääketieteellisten operaatioiden takia.


Anyone who undergoes the process meets dozens of people to whom they must explain their existence and right to a gender identity.

Sen läpikäyvät tapaavat kymmeniä ihmisiä, joille pitää perustella omaa olemassaoloaan ja oikeuttaan omaan sukupuolikokemukseen.


"It's crazy that treatment is denied from people who need help and support by saying that they don't have sufficient resources", Auer says.

"On hullua, että ihmisiltä jotka ovat tuen ja avun tarpeessa evätään hoito vedoten siihen, etteivät heidän voimavaransa riitä", Auer sanoo.


Many applying for the process have suffered from mental disorders: depression, anxiety and possibly bullying.

Monella prosessiin hakeutuneilla on takana psyykkistä oireilua: masennusta, ahdistusta, mahdollisia kiusaamiskokemuksia.


By appealing to these, the nursing staff can decide that the process cannot be started.

Näihin vedoten hoitohenkilökunta voi määrätä, ettei hoitoa voida aloittaa.


"If people are not given access to treatment and assistance, their situation may even become worse than it was before the process", says Auer.

"Hoidon ja avun saamisen estäminen voi syöstä ihmisen vielä pahempaan tilanteeseen, kuin mitä se oli ennen prosessin aloittamista", Auer sanoo.


Auer's personal exhibit also deals with anxiety and thoughts of suicide.

Auerin omakohtainen näyttely käsittelee myös ahdistusta ja ajatuksia itsemurhasta.


In the exhibition brochure, Auer writes: "I've had suicidal thoughts throughout my adult life, and this is something people find hard to accept."

Näyttelyjulkaisun tekstissä Auer kirjoittaa: "Minulla on ollut itsetuhoisia ajatuksia koko aikuisikäni ajan ja se on asia, mitä ihmisten on yleensä vaikea sulattaa".


Auer has received medicine for her depression. When she started to take hormones, she also started to feel better.

Masennusta on hoidettu lääkkeillä ja kun Auer aloitti hormonien käyttämisen, olo helpottui.


She was finally able to put into words the feelings she had had since her childhood and teenage –

Hän oli pystynyt vihdoin sanoittamaan tuntemukset, jotka olivat olleet olemassa jo lapsuudessa ja teini-iässä.


why her wide chin did not seem to be quite right for her body and why her pectoral muscles were round instead of flat.

Sen miksi leveä leuka ei tuntunut sopivan omaan kehoon ja miksi rintalihasten tuli olla pyöreät tasaisen rintakehän sijaan.


Auer has always found it important that she has people who can truly see her close to her.

Tärkeintä Auerille on ollut se, että hänen lähellään on ihmisiä, jotka näkevät hänet.


"I need to explain my existence through my words, clothes, voice and motions", she says.

"Itseään joutuu perustelemaan niin paljon puhumalla, pukeutumalla, äänen käytöllä ja liikkeillä", hän kertoo.


Currently, Auer feels that she is seen, and exists as a woman.

Nykyään Auer kokee jo tulevansa nähdyksi, hän on olemassa naisena.


However, in the first phases of the process, random comments by people close to her hurt.

Prosessin alkuvaiheessa läheisten sattumanvaraiset kommentit saattoivat kuitenkin satuttaa paljon.


What hurts me the most is when people close to me define my gender incorrectly.

Eniten satuttaa se, kun läheiset väärinsukupuolittavat.


"They should know who I am, and they do know it, but they refuse to accept it or can't accept it", she continues.

"Heidän tulisi tietää ja he tietävät kuka olen, mutta eivät suostu tai pysty sisäistämään sitä", hän jatkaa.


However, not all transgender people want physical alterations.

Kaikki transihmiset eivät kuitenkaan kaipaa fyysisiä muutoksia.


They do not suffer from the body dysmorphic disorder, whereby their body or its parts can cause anxiety or even physical pain.

He eivät kärsi kehodysforiasta eli kehoristiriitaisuudesta, jossa keho tai sen osat voivat aiheuttaa ahdistusta ja jopa fyysistä kipua.


Without the use of hormones or a lengthy examination process, it is not possible to have an official status for one's own gender.

Ilman hormonien käyttämistä ja pitkää tutkimusprosessia ei voi kuitenkaan saada virallista vahvistusta omalle sukupuolelleen.


"There is no medical basis for these examinations", Auer says.

"Näillä tutkimuksille ei ole olemassa minkäänlaista lääketieteellistä perustetta", Auer sanoo.


For example, in Denmark, Parliament approved a new procedure for identifying the legal gender in June 2014.

Esimerkiksi Tanskassa parlamentti hyväksyi kesäkuussa 2014 uuden menettelyn juridisen sukupuolen tunnustamiseen.


The new legislation is based on the right of self-determination when it comes to the legal gender.

Uusi lainsäädäntö perustuu itsemääräämisoikeuteen juridisen sukupuolen suhteen.


An adult applicant needs to file a written application for a new personal identity code, indicating that they feel like they represent the other gender.

Täysi-ikäinen hakija tekee kirjallisen hakemuksen uudesta henkilötunnuksesta kertoen siinä kokevansa olevansa toista sukupuolta.


After a reconsideration period of six months, the applicant needs to confirm their application in writing, after which the ministry will provide the applicant with a new personal identity code.

Puolen vuoden harkinta-ajan jälkeen hakija vahvistaa hakemuksensa kirjallisesti ja ministeriö antaa hakijalle uuden henkilötunnuksen.


A similar right of self-determination is also demanded in Finland, and this is also what characterises Auer's exhibition.

Tätä itsemääräämisoikeutta vaaditaan myös Suomeen ja tähän vaatimukseen kiteytyy myös Auerin näyttely.


The exhibition has not been any therapeutic experience for the artist; it is a political and artistic collection.

Se ei ole ollut taiteilijalle terapiakokemus, vaan näyttely on poliittinen ja taiteellinen teoskokoelma.


"I want to believe that art still matters and it helps to achieve political changes, during a time when politicians have forgotten about human rights."

Haluan uskoa, että taiteella on yhä painoarvoa ja että sen avulla voidaan saada aikaan poliittisia muutoksia, aikana jolloin poliitikot ovat unohtaneet ihmisoikeudet.

Civil rights group issues travel warning for Missouri

Kansalaisoikeusjärjestö antoi matkustusvaroituksen Missouriin


The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has put out an alert for people of color traveling to Missouri because of the state's discriminatory policies and racist attacks.

Afroamerikkalaisten kansalaisoikeuksia ajava kansallinen NAACP-järjestö on antanut Missouria koskevan matkustusvaroituksen. Syynä ovat osavaltion syrjivät käytännöt ja siellä tapahtuneet rasistiset hyökkäykset.


"The NAACP Travel Advisory for the state of Missouri, effective through August 28th, 2017, calls for African American travelers, visitors and Missourians to pay special attention and exercise extreme caution when traveling throughout the state given the series of questionable, race-based incidents occurring statewide recently, and noted therein," the group's statement reads.

”NAACP:n Missouria koskeva matkustustiedote tulee voimaan 28.8.2017, ja siinä kehotetaan afroamerikkalaisia matkailijoita, vierailijoita ja paikallisia kiinnittämään erityistä huomiota ja noudattamaan äärimmäistä varovaisuutta matkustaessaan osavaltiossa, jossa on viime aikoina sattunut lukuisia kyseenalaisia rotuun perustuvia tapahtumia”, järjestön tiedotteessa todetaan.


A recent Missouri law making it harder for people to win discrimination lawsuits, as well as the state's law enforcement disproportionately targeting minorities prompted the group to issue the travel alert, the NAACP said.

Missourissa hiljattain voimaan tullut laki vaikeuttaa syrjintätapausten vientiä oikeuteen. Lisäksi osavaltion lakien täytäntöönpano kohdistuu suhteettomasti vähemmistöihin. NAACP:n mukaan nämä seikat johtivat matkustusvaroituksen antamiseen.


"You have violations of civil rights that are happening to people.


They're being pulled over because of their skin color, they're being beaten up or killed," the president of the Missouri NAACP, Rod Chapel, told The Kansas City Star.

Heidät pysäytetään ihonvärin perusteella ja pahoinpidellään tai tapetaan”, NAACP:n Missourin puheenjohtaja Rod Chapel totesi Kansas City Star -lehdelle.


"We are hearing complaints at a rate we haven't heard before."

”Emme ole aiemmin kuulleet yhtä monesta tapauksesta yhtä lyhyessä ajassa.”


It is the first such warning that the organization has issued for a state in the US.

Missouria koskeva matkustustiedote on järjestön ensimmäinen Yhdysvaltojen osavaltiota koskeva varoitus.


The group cited incidents such as racial slurs against black students at the University of Missouri and the death of Tory Sanders, 28, a black man from Tennessee.

Järjestö mainitsi esimerkkeinä afroamerikkalaisia opiskelijoita vastaan esitetyt rasistiset kommentit Missourin yliopistossa sekä Tennesseestä kotoisin olleen 28-vuotiaan mustaihoisen Tory Sandersin kuoleman.


Sanders died under questionable circumstances earlier this year after he ran out of gas while traveling through the state, and was taken into custody by Missouri police without being accused of a crime.

Sanders kuoli kyseenalaisissa olosuhteissa aiemmin tänä vuonna. Hän oli ajamassa osavaltion läpi, kun hänen autostaan loppui polttoaine. Missourin poliisi pidätti hänet, vaikka häntä ei syytetty rikoksesta.


The advisory also points to a recent report by the Missouri Attorney General's Office showing that black drivers in the state were 75 percent more likely to be pulled over than whites.

Matkustustiedotteessa viitattiin myös Missourin oikeusministerin selvitykseen, jonka mukaan poliisi pysäyttää mustaihoisen kuljettajan 75 prosenttia todennäköisemmin kuin valkoisen.


"The advisory is for people to be aware, and warn their families and friends and co-workers of what could happen in Missouri," Chapel said.

”Matkustustiedotteen tarkoituksena on kehottaa ihmisiä olemaan varuillaan ja varoittamaan perheitään, ystäviään ja työtovereitaan siitä, mitä Missourissa voi tapahtua”, Chapel sanoo.


"People need to be ready, whether it's bringing bail money with them, or letting relatives know they are traveling through the state."

”Ihmisten on valmistauduttava esimerkiksi ottamalla mukaan rahaa takuiden maksamista varten tai kertomalla sukulaisille, että aikovat matkustaa osavaltion läpi.”


Missouri recorded 100 hate crimes in 2015, according to the latest figures from the FBI's hate crime reporting program, ranking the state at 16th in the country in terms of the number of such violations.

FBI:n mukaan Missourissa kirjattiin vuonna 2015 sata viharikosta eli kuudenneksitoista eniten Yhdysvaltojen osavaltioista.


The travel warning is also a response to a new Missouri law that would make it more difficult to sue a business for housing or employment discrimination.

Matkustusvaroitus on myös vastaus Missourin uuteen lakiin, joka vaikeuttaa yritysten haastamista oikeuteen asumisessa ja työsuhteissa ilmenneestä syrjinnästä.


Previously, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) had issued travel advisories for Texas and Arizona after the states passed immigration enforcement laws requiring local law enforcement to detain people on immigration violations which the ACLU said would increase racial profiling.

Perustuslain takaamia kansalaisoikeuksia puolustava ACLU-järjestö antoi äskettäin matkustusvaroitukset Texasiin ja Arizonaan sen jälkeen, kun ne olivat hyväksyneet maahanmuuttolait, jotka velvoittavat poliisia pidättämään ihmisiä maahanmuuttorikkomuksista. Järjestön mukaan tämä lisää rotuun perustuvaa profilointia.


Travel warnings are usually issued by the State Department for other countries, but lately, advocacy groups have resorted to the measure in response to certain laws and trends inside the US.

Yleensä matkustusvaroituksia julkaisee ulkoministeriö, ja ne koskevat muita valtioita. Viime aikoina kansalaisjärjestöt ovat kuitenkin julkaisseet niitä vastauksena tiettyihin lakeihin ja kehityssuuntiin Yhdysvalloissa.

Yle: Lintilä asked Finnair to clarify the CEO's additional pension

Yle: Lintilä pyytänyt Finnairilta selvityksen toimitusjohtajan lisäeläkkeestä


Yle reports that Mika Lintilä (Centre Party), Minister of Economic Affairs in charge of Government ownership steering, has asked Finnair to clarify the additional pension paid to CEO Pekka Vauramo.

Valtion omistajaohjauksesta vastaava elinkeinoministeri Mika Lintilä (kesk.) on pyytänyt Finnairilta selvityksen lentoyhtiön toimitusjohtajan Pekka Vauramon saamasta lisäeläkemaksusta, Yle kertoo.


According to Lintilä, this is in conflict with the Government's definitions.

Se on ministerin mukaan ristiriidassa valtion tahdonilmauksen kanssa.


Vauramo's additional pension of EUR 130,000 hit the news this week when Helsingin Sanomat reported on the development on incentives paid to directors of listed companies.

Vauramon saama 130 000 euron lisäeläke nousi esiin tällä viikolla, kun Helsingin Sanomat uutisoi pörssiyhtiöiden johtajien palkitsemiskehityksestä.


Suomen Kuvalehti reported on Vauramo's additional pension in February.

Suomen Kuvalehti uutisoi Vauramon lisäeläkkeestä helmikuussa.

The Government has defined that no additional pensions should be used as incentives.

The state holds more than half of Finnair.


According to the company, this decision is in line with last year's decision-in-principle on ownership steering.

Yhtiön mukaan päätös on linjassa viime vuoden omistajanohjausta koskevan periaatepäätöksen kanssa.


Sanctions immediately resulted in heated talks


Some time ago, it still seemed that US-Russia relations were turning from cold to hot.

Vielä jokin aika sitten näytti siltä, että Yhdysvaltain ja Venäjän väliset suhteet ovat matkalla kylmästä lämpimään.


When meeting at the G20 summit in Hamburg, Donald Trump, the President of the USA, and Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, seemed to get along nicely.

Hampurissa järjestetyn teollisuusmaiden G20-kokouksen yhteydessä tavanneet Yhdysvaltain presidentti Donald Trump ja Venäjän presidentti Vladimir Putin näyttivät tulevan toimeen keskenään mainiosti.


Later on, the relationship has become notably colder.

Sittemmin tunnelma on jäähtynyt huomattavasti.


Russia showed a bitter response to the new economic sanctions approved last week by the US Congress and signed by Trump on Wednesday.

Yhdysvaltain kongressin viime viikolla hyväksymiin ja Trumpin keskiviikkona allekirjoittamiin uusiin talouspakotteisiin reagoitiin Venäjällä kitkerästi.


So far, the most stunning response has been heard from Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev who said that the sanctions bill signed by Trump will result in a "full-scale trade war."

Tyrmäävin vastaus on toistaiseksi kuultu pääministeri Dmitri Medvedeviltä, jonka mukaan Trumpin allekirjoittama pakotelaki merkitsee "täysimittaista kauppasotaa".


Even if the Russian responses were shrugged off merely as exaggerations and aggravations belonging to political rhetoric, the increased tension between the USA and Russia is a fact, following the short honeymoon after Trump's election.

Vaikka venäläisreaktiot kuittaisi vain poliittiseen retoriikkaan kuuluvina kärjistyksinä ja ylilyönteinä, on Yhdysvaltain ja Venäjän välien kiristyminen tosiasia lyhyen Trumpin valinnan jälkeisen kuherruskuukauden jälkeen.


In the USA, passing the sanctions act concerning Russia, Iran and North Korea was no simple process.

Yhdysvalloissa Venäjää, Irania ja Pohjois-Koreaa koskevan pakotelain läpimeno ei ollut yksinkertaista.


Then again, the US Congress was remarkably unanimous in passing the bill. However, it was told that accepting the bill was much more difficult for the president.

Kongressi tosin hyväksyi lain huomattavan yksimielisenä, mutta presidentille lain hyväksyminen oli kerrotun mukaan huomattavasti hankalampaa.


Soon after signing the bill, Trump criticised it as being "significantly incomplete."

Trump kritisoikin tuoreeltaan allekirjoittamaansa lakia "merkittävän puutteelliseksi".


The sulkiness of President Trump was probably caused by Russia, even though it must have also felt disagreeable to sign a bill that limits the president's own power.

Presidentti Trumpin nyrpeyteen lienee ollut syynä erityisesti Venäjä, vaikka myös omia valtaoikeuksia rajoittavan lain hyväksymisen on täytynyt olla vastenmielistä.


As is widely known, the USA is investigating Russia's possible involvement in the presidential election and any links between Trump's campaign and Russia.

Kuten hyvin on tunnettua, käydään Yhdysvalloissa tutkintaa niin Venäjän mahdollisesta sekaantumisesta presidentinvaaleihin kuin Trumpin kampanjan Venäjä-yhteyksistä.


After a short honeymoon, the relationship between the USA and Russia has turned decidedly colder.

Yhdysvaltain ja Venäjän välien kiristyminen on tosiasia lyhyen kuherruskuukauden jälkeen.


As the turnover of White House staff has been high and different scandalous twists and turns have been revealed nearly every day, it seems to be more apparent that US foreign policy is not run by the president, but regardless of the president.

Kun Valkoisen talon henkilökunta on vaihtunut tiuhaan ja erilaisia skandaalinkäryisiä käänteitä on paljastunut miltei päivittää, näyttää yhä selvemmin siltä, ettei ulkopolitiikkaa tehdä Yhdysvalloissa presidentin johdolla vaan presidentistä huolimatta.


Such a situation is in no sense a preferable one.

Tällainen tilanne ei missään nimessä ole toivottava.


If the Russian relations are a tricky business in the USA, the same goes with the European Union.

Jos Venäjä-suhde on kimurantti Yhdysvalloissa, pätee sama myös Euroopan unioniin.


In addition to economic sanctions, the intensified security situation in the Baltic Sea region tightens the relationship.

Talouspakotteiden lisäksi myös jännittynyt turvallisuustilanne unionin ydinalueella Itämerellä kiristää suhteita.


The EU has visibly highlighted the situation in Ukraine in its relationship with Russia and demanded the execution of the Minsk Protocol.

EU on näkyvästi pitänyt esillä Ukrainan tilannetta Venäjä-suhteissaan ja vaatinut Minskin sopimuksen toimeenpanoa.


Even though the EU has remained unified, at least visibly, in its Russian policy, its member states have fairly differing interests.

Vaikka unioni on toistaiseksi pysynyt Venäjä-politiikassaan ainakin päällisin puolin yhtenäisenä, ovat jäsenmaiden intressit varsin erilaiset.


For a member state such as Finland that trades frequently with Russia, economic sanctions are a constant nuisance.

Suomen kaltaiselle Venäjän kanssa paljon kauppaa tekevälle jäsenmaalle, talouspakotteet ovat olleet todellinen riesa.


The impact of the new US sanctions act remains unclear.

Yhdysvaltojen tuoreen pakotelain vaikutukset ovat vielä epäselvät.


The EU has feared that sanctions will make the life of many European companies difficult.

EU:ssa on pelätty, että pakotteet tulevat vaikeuttamaan monen eurooppalaisen yrityksen toimintaa.


In Finland, the act may have an impact, for example, on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline project and the Fennovoima nuclear power plant project.

Suomessa vaikutukset voivat tuntua esimerkiksi Nord Stream 2 -kaasuputkihankkeessa sekä mahdollisesti Fennovoiman ydinvoimalahankkeessa.


Another cause of sourness in Europe is that liquefied natural gas, which is important for US finances, has been excluded from the sanctions.

Happamuutta Euroopassa on aiheuttanut se, että pakotteiden ulkopuolelle on jätetty esimerkiksi Yhdysvaltojen taloudelle tärkeä nestemäinen maakaasu lng.


Trade sanctions are a global way of showing disapproval.

Kauppapakotteet ovat keino maailmanpolitiikassa keino osoittaa paheksuntaa.


However, economic sanctions must be well-considered and accurate,

Talouspakotteiden pitää kuitenkin olla hyvin harkittuja ja tarkka-alaisia.

Now Trump's White House is targeting the Statue of Liberty

Trumpin Valkoisella talolla on nyt tähtäimessään Vapaudenpatsas


The surest mark of regime change is when they start attacking the statues.

Patsaisiin puuttuminen on varmin merkki vallanvaihdoksesta.


Americans appreciate this as well as anyone - hence the carefully stage-manged toppling of Saddam Hussein in Firdos square in Baghdad in 2003.

Amerikkalaiset tietävät sen yhtä hyvin kuin muutkin: irakilaiset kaatoivat yhdessä amerikkalaisten sotilaiden kanssa Saddam Husseinin patsaan Firdosin aukiolla vuonna 2003.


Stephen Miller, one of the key ideologues of the Trump regime, surely knew what he was doing when he took a symbolic axe to the Statue of Liberty in a heated argument with CNN's Jim Acosta over the president's proposals to drastically limit legal immigration.

Stephen Miller, yksi Trumpin hallinnon pääideologeista, tiesi hyvin, mitä oli tekemässä kiivaassa väittelyssä CNN-kanavan Jim Acostan kanssa. Vapaudenpatsas joutui Millerin hyökkäyksen kohteeksi sanaharkassa, joka koski presidentin ehdotusta vähentää laillista maahanmuuttoa huomattavasti.


In fairness, Miller did not attack the statue itself.

Miller ei varsinaisesti arvostellut itse patsasta.


A horde of boat-trip owners and Liberty impersonators would have lynched him if he did.

Jos hän olisi tehnyt niin, hän olisi saanut kimppuunsa valtavat laumat risteilyjen järjestäjiä ja Vapaudenpatsasta imitoivia hahmoja.


But he did attack its meaning, and in particular the meaning ascribed to it when Emma Lazarus's famous poem was added to its base in 1903, 17 years after the monument itself was completed.

Hänen hyökkäyksensä kohteena oli patsaan merkitys ja etenkin se, että vuonna 1903 patsaan jalustaan lisättiin Emma Lazaruksen runo – 17 vuotta patsaan valmistumisen jälkeen.


As Miller scolded Acosta: "I don't want to get off into a whole thing about history here, but the Statue of Liberty is ... a symbol of American liberty lighting the world.

Näin Miller sätti Acostaa: ”En halua nyt mennä sen tarkemmin historiaan, mutta Vapaudenpatsas on... koko maailmaa valaisevan amerikkalaisen vapauden symboli.


The poem that you're referring to, that was added later and is not part of the original Statue of Liberty."

Runo lisättiin myöhemmin, eikä se kuulu alkuperäiseen Vapaudenpatsaaseen.”


Miller is factually correct, but as he put it himself, this is not really about history.

Miller ei sinänsä ollut väärässä, mutta kyse ei ole vain historiasta, kuten hän itsekin sanoi.


It is about the contemporary resonance of Lazarus's startling words, the only ones in which a state has appeared to invite not just any old immigrants, but the poorest of the poor: "Your tired, your poor, / Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, / The wretched refuse of your teeming shore."

Olennaista ovat Lazaruksen koskettavat sanat, ainoat laatuaan, joissa valtio ei kutsu vain maahanmuuttajia vaan ”köyhistä köyhimpiä”: ”Your tired, your poor, / Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, / The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.”


There has never been a time when the "wretched refuse" has been more visible on our screens.

Runo on nyt ajankohtaisempi kuin koskaan.


Miller was not engaging in literary criticism - he was making it clear that these people are not welcome in Trump's USA.

Miller ei suinkaan harjoittanut kirjallisuuskritiikkiä. Hän teki selväksi, että ”köyhistä köyhimmät” eivät ole tervetulleita Trumpin Yhdysvaltoihin.


This conflict about the meaning of a statue is part of a wider political and cultural war: it is really a conflict about the meaning of America.

Kiista Vapaudenpatsaan merkityksestä on osa laajempaa poliittista ja kulttuurista kiistaa Yhdysvaltojen merkityksestä.


Lazarus - and her friends who campaigned to place her words at the base after her death - knew very well that they were engaging in a highly political act.

Lazaruksen ystävät kampanjoivat hänen kuolemansa jälkeen sen puolesta, että runo kiinnitettäisiin patsaan jalustaan. He tiesivät hyvin, että teko oli vahvasti poliittinen.


The sculpture was intended to mark the connections between French and American republicanism by representing in a well-worn classical trope, the female embodiment of Liberty.

Patsaan tarkoituksena oli ilmentää ranskalaisen ja amerikkalaisen tasavaltalaisuuden yhteyksiä klassisella vertauskuvalla, vapauden naisellisella ruumiillistumalla.


Lazarus changed that meaning: in her poem the female figure is no longer abstract - she has a voice.

Lazarus muutti sen merkitystä: hänen runossaan naishahmo ei ole enää abstrakti, vaan sillä on ääni.


And she gives herself a very different name: Mother of Exiles.

Ja se antaa itselleen uuden nimen: karkotettujen äiti.


The marrying of the poem to the image is a brilliant feminist coup and a devastating attack on American nativism.

Runon liittäminen mielikuvaan oli nerokas feministinen vallankaappaus ja tuhoisa hyökkäys amerikkalaista kansallisuusaatetta vastaan.


And just as Lazarus changed the meaning of the statue, rightwingers have long wanted to change it back.

Lazarus muutti patsaan merkityksen, ja oikeisto on jo kauan halunnut muuttaa sen takaisin alkuperäiseksi.


The great loudmouth Rush Limbaugh, a kind of John the Baptist for the coming of Trump, argued in 2010 that Liberty is not inviting anyone in, but is rather an early neocon, taking the American flame out to the benighted world: "Lady Liberty is stepping forward.

Rush Limbaugh – suunsoittaja, jota voidaan nyt pitää jonkinlaisena ennusmerkkinä Trumpista – väitti vuonna 2010, että Vapaudenpatsas ei esitä kenellekään kutsua, vaan se on uuskonservatiivien varhainen edelläkävijä, joka vie Yhdysvaltojen soihtua pimeyden peittämään maailmaan: ”Lady Liberty astuu esiin.


She is meant to be carrying the torch of liberty from the United States to the rest of the world.

Hän vie vapauden soihtua Yhdysvalloista muualle maailmaan.


The torch is not to light the way to the United States."


Rather unusually, Limbaugh actually hit on something.

Harvinaista kyllä, Limbaugh oli osittain oikeassa.


The meaning of the statue is entirely a matter of the angle of perception.

Vapaudenpatsaan merkitys riippuu täysin näkökulmasta.


Lazarus's great imaginative act was to see it as it would be seen by exhausted, wretched but hopeful people on the decks of ships after long and often dreadful journeys.

Lazarus näki sen niin kuin köyhät ja uupuneet mutta toiveikkaat maahanmuuttajat laivan kannelta pitkän ja koettelevan matkan jälkeen.


It is literally about seeing the world from the perspective of people seeking refuge and a chance to better their lives.

Hän näki sen suojaa ja parempaa elämää etsivien ihmisten näkökulmasta.


Her statue speaks back to them the words of hope and welcome they need to hear.

Hänen Vapaudenpatsaansa lohduttaa antamalla toivoa ja toivottamalla tervetulleeksi.


And of course, this is not the perspective Miller and Trump want ever to recognise.

Ja sitä Miller ja Trump eivät missään tapauksessa halua.


Their torch is meant not to light the way, but to inflame the hatreds that are their only source of power.

World Championships 2017: Neil Black praises Scottish members of Team GB

Yleisurheilun MM-kilpailut 2017: Neil Black ylistää Ison-Britannian maajoukkueen skotlantilaisia jäseniä


Eilidh Doyle recalls a time when only two Scots made the GB team

Eilidh Doyle muistaa ajan, jolloin vain kaksi skottia pääsi Ison-Britannian maajoukkueeseen


UK Athletics' performance director Neil Black says the 16-strong Scottish contingent in the World Championships squad will make "a massive contribution to the team."

Ison-Britannian yleisurheiluliiton tulosjohtaja Neil Black sanoo, että maailmanmestaruuskilpailuihin osallistuvan maajoukkueen 16 skottijäsentä ovat ”merkittävä vahvistus”.


A record number of Scottish athletes have been selected for London 2017, which starts on Friday.

Perjantaina Lontoossa alkaviin yleisurheilun MM-kilpailuihin on valittu ennätysmäärä skotlantilaisia urheilijoita.


Black believes "there's something special evolving" in Scotland and UK athletics must learn from that.

Blackin mukaan Skotlannissa ”on tapahtumassa jotain erityistä”, josta Ison-Britannian yleisurheilun on otettava oppia.


"We embrace it and we're trying to understand it and we'll push on that until we work it out," Black said.

”Tämä on tervetullutta, ja jatkamme sen tutkimista niin kauan, että ymmärrämme, mistä on kysymys”, Black sanoo.


"I speak to people in the Scottish Institute of Sport and they think it's something to do with what they've done.

”Keskustelin Skotlannin urheiluinstituutin edustajien kanssa, ja he arvelivat, että se liittyy instituutin toimintaan.


Scottish Athletics think it's something to do with what they've done.

Skotlannin yleisurheiluliitto taas uskoo, että se liittyy liiton toimintaan,


British athletics: it's something to do with what they've done.

ja Ison-Britannian yleisurheiluliitto uskoo, että sen taustalla on heidän toimintansa.


Ja tavallinen kaduntallaaja arvelee, että hänellä täytyy olla jotain tekemistä asian kanssa.


Whatever the combination of circumstances, it's absolutely brilliant."

Kyseessä on kuitenkin jotakin aivan mahtavaa, mistä se sitten johtuukaan.”


Several of the Scottish athletes are medal contenders, including Laura Muir and Andrew Butchart - who will race against Sir Mo Farah in the 5,000m, while Eilidh Doyle was voted by the squad to be team captain.

Moni skottiurheilija kilpailee Lontoossa tosissaan mitaleista, muiden muassa Laura Muir sekä Andrew Butchart, joka kilpailee Sir Mo Farahin kanssa 5 000 metrin juoksussa. Eilidh Doyle puolestaan valittiin maajoukkueen kapteeniksi.


Her captain's speech was incredible," says Black.

Hänen kapteenin puheensa oli uskomattoman upea”, Black sanoo.


"A number of athletes, whether they were Scottish or wherever they live or train, walked out of that room feeling hugely proud and really motivated.

”Urheilijat poistuivat tilaisuudesta ylpeinä saavutuksistaan ja vahvasti motivoituneina riippumatta siitä, missä sattuvat asumaan ja harjoittelemaan.


The passion and real feeling that Eilidh naturally put into it were great."

Eilidhin sanoissa oli aitoa tunnetta ja intohimoa urheiluun.”


The Commonwealth silver medallist, who will compete in the 400m hurdles at her fifth World Championships, says it's "incredible" 16 Scots are in the British team.

Eilidh Doyle on Kansainyhteisön mestaruuskilpailujen hopeamitalisti 400 metrin aitajuoksussa, ja nämä ovat hänen viidennet maailmanmestaruuskilpailunsa. Hänen mielestään on ”uskomatonta”, että maajoukkueessa on 16 skottia.


Scotland's previous best total of athletes at the worlds was seven, achieved in 1983 and 2015.

Aiempi ennätys oli seitsemän vuosilta 1983 ja 2015.


Middle-distance runner Muir is leading the way, having set five British and two European records in the past year.

Keskimatkojen juoksija Laura Muir on juossut vuoden aikana viisi Ison-Britannian ja kaksi Euroopan ennätystä.


She will go in the 1500m and the 5,000m.

Hän kilpailee Lontoossa 1 500 metrillä ja 5 000 metrillä.


Chris O'Hare, who runs in the 1500m, is another Scot to watch, following a great season that included victory at the British Team trials and the Anniversary Games.

Chris O’Hare juoksee Lontoossa 1 500 metriä. Myös häntä kannattaa pitää silmällä: miehellä on takanaan erinomainen kausi, johon kuuluvat voitot Ison-Britannian MM-karsinnoissa ja Anniversary Games -kilpailuissa.


Doyle remembers her first world championships, when the only other Scot in the team was Lee McConnell.

Doyle muistaa ensimmäiset maailmanmestaruuskilpailunsa, jolloin maajoukkueen ainoa skotti hänen lisäkseen oli Lee McConnell.


The team captain says she's "hugely proud" of the fact so many of her compatriots have not only made the team, but, in some cases, will be challenging for medals and competing to make finals.

Maajoukkueen kapteeni sanoo olevansa ”valtavan ylpeä” siitä, että mukana on niin monta skottia, joista osa kilpailee tosissaan finaalipaikoista ja mitaleista.


"The special thing about being team captain is that it was voted for by the other members of the team, so that it was such a huge honour anyway but to know that your teammates have voted for you and chosen you made it extra-special for me," she added.

”Kapteeniksi pääsy on muutenkin suuri kunnia, mutta vielä erityisempää se on siksi, että maajoukkueen jäsenet äänestivät kapteenin”, Doyle sanoo.


"Obviously, I'm very proud of all the Scots who've made the team.

”Olen tietenkin erittäin ylpeä kaikista skoteista, jotka pääsivät maajoukkueeseen.


Se osoittaa, kuinka pitkälle olemme päässeet.


And they're here as well-established athletes, athletes that are going to be looking to get on podiums.

He ovat mukana ansioituneina urheilijoina, jotka kilpailevat palkintosijoista.


I just drew on the fact that we're very lucky in this situation in that we've got a home World Championships.

Keskityin siihen, kuinka onnekkaita olemme, kun meillä on kotikisat.


So it's really just the importance of drawing on that home support and thriving on the fact that we're back at the Olympic Stadium.

On tärkeää nauttia kotiyleisön tuesta ja siitä, että olemme taas olympiastadionilla.


I'm getting a second chance to go out there and compete and it's just going to be such an amazing atmosphere out there."

Saan toisen mahdollisuuden kilpailla siellä ja tiedän, että ilmapiiristä tulee mielettömän upea.”


Blocking critics from Facebook: Don't run for public office, if you can't take heat from voters

Arvostelijoiden estäminen Facebookissa: Älä asetu ehdolle julkiseen virkaan, jos et kestä kritiikkiä


The father of our country knew something about bad press.

Maamme isä tiesi, mitä on huono julkisuus.


Americans loved George Washington, but it didn't take long for newspapers to start slamming him on everything from domestic policy to his political principles.

Amerikkalaiset rakastivat George Washingtonia, mutta sanomalehdet alkoivat pian arvostella häntä kaikesta mahdollisesta kotimaan politiikasta aina hänen poliittisiin periaatteisiinsa.


mutta hän ei hiljentänyt arvostelijoitaan.


Because back in 1783, Washington said, "the freedom of Speech may be taken away - and, dumb & silent we may be led, like sheep, to the Slaughter."

”Jos puheen vapaus poistetaan, meitä saatetaan johtaa tyhminä ja hiljaisina kuin lampaita teurastettaviksi”, Washington sanoi vuonna 1783.


That brings me to Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, who needs to work on being more like Washington.

Siitä pääsemmekin Marylandin kuvernööriin Larry Hoganiin, jonka pitäisi ottaa oppia Washingtonista.


Hogan's staff has blocked and deleted the posts of at least 450 people who voiced their opinions on his official Facebook page.

Hoganin henkilökunta on poistanut hänen viralliselta Facebook-sivultaan ainakin 450 kommenttia ja estänyt niiden esittäjät.


And the American Civil Liberties Union sued him for that earlier this week.

Yhdysvaltain kansalaisoikeuksien liitto haastoi Hoganin oikeuteen aiemmin tällä viikolla.


The governor's staff dismissed the lawsuit as frivolous, and the online commentary was rich with a "who cares?" backlash.

Hänen henkilökuntansa pitää haastetta perusteettomana, ja suhtautuminen oli vähättelevää myös verkossa.


"It's only Facebook," plenty of folks said.

”Mitä väliä? Tämähän on vain Facebook”, moni kommentoi.


And it especially matters when it's a guy like Hogan.


This is a Republican governor in an overwhelmingly Democratic state who is astonishingly popular.

Hogan on demokraattien hallitseman osavaltion hämmästyttävän suosittu republikaaninen kuvernööri.


He has the second-highest approval rating of the nation's 50 governors.

Hän on saanut toiminnastaan toiseksi parhaat arviot 50 kuvernöörin joukossa.


Hogan ei ole herkästi reagoiva kuumakalle.


He's shown a steady hand in leading his state and a stern adherence to principles.

Hän on johtanut osavaltiota vakaasti ja pitänyt tiukasti kiinni periaatteista.


He's also been pretty deft at using Facebook as a primary means to connect with his constituents, playfully debuting his hairless head after chemo treatments on his page.

Hän on myös käyttänyt osaavasti Facebookia pääasiallisena yhteydenpitokanavana äänestäjiinsä ja julkaissut siellä kuvan kemoterapiassa kaljuuntuneesta päästään.


So blocking people who come to the governor's page - which is a public forum, labeled as official and administered by staff members paid public tax dollars - is unnecessary and ultimately dangerous.

Siksi kuvernöörin Facebook-sivulle tulevien käyttäjien estäminen on tarpeetonta ja jopa vaarallista. Kuvernöörin sivu on julkinen ja virallinen foorumi, jota hänen henkilöstönsä ylläpitää verovaroilla.


In an interview with The Washington Post, Hogan spokeswoman Amelia Chasse defended the governor's actions, arguing that blocking the comments was nothing more than moderating them.

Hoganin tiedottaja Amelia Chasse puolusteli kuvernöörin toimia Washington Postille antamassaan haastattelussa. Hänen mukaansa oli kyse vain kommenttien moderoinnista.


But it's too easy to use the image of trolls or spammers or hateful folks lashing out online.

Kommentoijien leimaaminen trolleiksi, spämmääjiksi tai vihaajiksi on kuitenkin liian helppo ratkaisu.


The Post talked to some of the real people blocked by Hogan.

Washington Post haastatteli Hoganin Facebookissa estämiä käyttäjiä.


And they're just that - real people talking to their elected leaders: a teacher, a business owner and a pastor, not trolls.

He osoittautuivat tavallisiksi ihmisiksi, jotka halusivat keskustella valitsemiensa johtajien kanssa. He eivät olleet trolleja vaan esimerkiksi opettajia, yrittäjiä ja pastoreita.


They all said that their comments were respectful, thoughtful and not profane.

He kertoivat, että heidän kommenttinsa olivat kunnioittavia, huomaavaisia ja asiallisia.


The pastor quoted the Bible in his post, appealing to Hogan's Catholic faith.

Pastori lainasi kommentissaan raamattua; hän halusi vedota Hoganin katoliseen uskoon.


Attorney Lakshmi Sarma Ramani of Bowie, Md., wasn't hateful, but she asked about hate crimes.

Asianajaja Lakshmi Sarma Ramani Marylandin Bowiesta ei ollut vihamielinen vaan esitti kysymyksen viharikoksista.


"I politely commented that I was disappointed in his lack of response to hate crimes and other recent news items," she wrote in the comment section of The Post's news story.

”Kommentoin kohteliaasti olevani pettynyt siihen, ettei Hogan ollut ottanut kantaa viharikoksiin ja muihin viimeaikaisiin uutisiin”, hän kirjoitti Washington Postin uutisen kommenteissa.


"I also do not appreciate that idea that when a number of people comment on the same topic, they are immediately disregarded by some as a so-called collective effort, rather than recognized as a large group of concerned citizens."

”En myöskään voi hyväksyä sitä, että kun useampi ihminen kommentoi samaa asiaa, heitä pidetään heti jollakin tavalla järjestäytyneenä joukkona ja sivuutetaan suurena ryhmänä huolestuneita kansalaisia.”


What the governor's staff called a "concentrated spam attack" others would probably call "advocacy."

Kuvernöörin henkilökunta kutsui kommentteja ”keskitetyksi hyökkäykseksi”. Joku toinen voisi kutsua niitä tärkeinä pidettyjen asioiden edistämiseksi.


The Facebook era makes it easy to tailor a message by simply blocking a critic or deleting a negative comment.

Facebookin aikakaudella viestintää on helppo hallita estämällä arvostelija tai poistamalla kriittinen kommentti.


It's a lot cleaner than the old days, when doing the same would have required sending staff out to collect and burn newspapers with critical editorials or arresting and silencing protesters.

Ennen vanhaan olisi pitänyt lähettää henkilökuntaa keräämään ja polttamaan sanomalehtiä, joissa oli julkaistu kriittisiä pääkirjoituksia, tai pidättämään ja hiljentämään mielenosoittajia.


But that's exactly what's happening, only digitally.

Oikeasti on kyse kuitenkin samasta asiasta, nyt vain digitaalisesti.


Hogan isn't the first public official to be criticized for defanging Facebook and other social media.

Hogan ei ole ensimmäinen julkinen viranhaltija, jota on syytetty Facebookin ja muiden sosiaalisen median kanavien kahlitsemisesta.


President Trump is being sued by Twitter users who were blocked from his Twitter feed.

Presidentti Trumpin estämät Twitter-käyttäjät ovat haastaneet hänet oikeuteen.


One of the first landmark rulings on this issue came down last week in Virginia.

Aiheesta annettiin ensimmäinen merkittävä päätös viime viikolla Virginiassa.


The chair of the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors violated the First Amendment, according to U.S. District Judge James C. Cacheris in Alexandria, when she banned a constituent from her Facebook page.

Alexandrian käräjäoikeuden tuomarin James C. Cacheriksen mukaan Loudounin piirikunnan hallitus rikkoi Yhdysvaltain perustuslain ensimmäistä lisäystä estäessään äänestäjän Facebookissa.


And in Kentucky, Gov. Matt Bevin (R) also got a visit from the ACLU over his use of Facebook and Twitter.

Ja Yhdysvaltain kansalaisoikeuksien liitto kävi keskustelemassa Kentuckyn republikaanisen kuvernöörin Matt Bevinin kanssa Twitterin ja Facebookin käytöstä.


In Washington's time, the era of affordable postage had an impact much like the Internet.

Washingtonin aikaan edullisilla postimaksuilla oli samankaltainen vaikutus kuin nykyään internetillä.


The number of newspapers quadrupled between 1776 and 1800, and anonymous letter writers hammered his leadership.

Sanomalehtien määrä nelinkertaistui vuodesta 1776 vuoteen 1800, ja nimettömät kirjoittajat moukaroivat Washingtonia.


And even back then, Washington had anonymous trolls.


People using the pseudonyms "Juricola," "Valerius," "Belisarius," and "Portius" all wrote letters to newspapers trashing Washington's decisions.

Nimimerkit Juricola, Valerius, Belisarius ja Portius kirjoittivat sanomalehtiin kirjeitä, joissa he haukkuivat Washingtonin päätöksiä.


Petitions criticizing his stand on the Treaty of Amity, Commerce, and Navigation with Britain overwhelmed his office, according to the historical documents collected by the online Papers of George Washington Project.

Presidentin toimistoon tulvi vetoomuksia, joissa arvosteltiin Jayn sopimusta eli Yhdysvaltain ja Britannian välistä yhteistyö-, kauppa- ja merenkulkusopimusta. Tämä käy ilmi Papers of George Washington -verkkoprojektin keräämistä asiakirjoista.


Hän ei kuitenkaan hiljentänyt arvostelijoitaan.


Freedom of speech, dissent and discourse lie at the very foundation of our nation.

Sananvapaus, mielipiteenvapaus ja keskustelunvapaus ovat kansakuntamme peruskiviä.


And true leadership means accepting that.

Todellinen johtajuus tarkoittaa tämän tosiasian hyväksymistä.


Summer bird feeding should be stopped at once

Lintujen kesäruokinta on syytä lopettaa heti


"We have received samples from roughly five locations and online reports from two to three places.

Näytteitä on tullut noin puolestakymmenestä paikasta, ja lisäksi netti-ilmoituksia parista, kolmesta.


Most of these are from southern and south-western Finland, but there are also individual reports from Haapavesi and Seinäjoki", says senior researcher Marja Isomursu from the Finnish Food Safety Authority (Evira).

Enin osa niistä on tullut Etelä- ja Varsinais-Suomesta, mutta sitten myös yksittäiset Haapavedeltä ja Seinäjoelta, erikoistutkija Marja Isomursu Evirasta kertoo.


European greenfinches have died of trichomoniasis, an infectious disease

Viherpeipot ovat kuolleet trikomonoosi-nimiseen loistautiin.


caused by a parasite called Trichomonas gallinae.

Sen aiheuttaa tietelliseltä nimeltään Trichomonas gallinae oleva alkueläin.


It has been known to infect doves, particularly pigeons.

Sen on aiemmin tiedetty iskevän kyyhkyihin, ja niistä etenkin puluun.


In the 2000s, the disease was also discovered in finches.

2000-luvulla tautia alettiin havaita kuitenkin myös peippolinnuista.


The most devastating news was heard in 2009


when trichomoniasis significantly reduced the number of European greenfinches in Finland, after which the species has slowly recovered.

Silloin trikomonoosi aiheutti Suomen viherpeippokannassa ison romahduksen, minkä jälkeen lajin kannat ovat olleet elpymään päin.


"We have seen evidence of diseased European greenfinches, but not on a large scale, at least not yet", says Juha Honkala, senior museum technician at the Finnish Museum of Natural History.

Sairaita viherpeippoja on nyt ollut, mutta ei ainakaan vielä isossa mittakaavassa, Helsingin yliopiston luonnontieteellisen keskusmuseon (Luomus) museomestari Juha Honkala kertoo.


"We fear that the previous epidemics will recur, unless we do something.

Pelättävissä on, että viherpeippojen edellinen epidemia uusiutuu jälleen, jollei jotain tehdä.


What we need to do is very simple: everyone must stop summer bird feeding at once."

Se, mitä pitää nyt tehdä, on hyvin yksinkertainen asia, jonka voi tehdä jokainen: lopettaa lintujen kesäruokinta välittömästi.


Ronan Rafferty hopes for home comforts at Renaissance Club

Ronan Rafferty toivoo hyötyvänsä kotikenttäedusta Renaissance Clubilla


Former European No 1 Ronan Rafferty will be hoping for home comforts over the next three days as the Renaissance Club in East Lothian hosts the 25th edition of the Scottish Senior Open.

Entinen Euroopan ykköspelaaja Ronan Rafferty toivoo hyötyvänsä kotikenttäedusta kolmen seuraavan päivän ajan, kun Renaissance Club Itä-Lothianissa järjestää 25. Skotlannin Senior Open -turnauksen.


The Northern Irishman, who led next door at Archerfield Links heading into the final round last year before losing out to Paul Eales, is attached to the new venue and is acting as tournament ambassador on behalf of the club's founder and CEO Jerry Sarvadi.

Pohjoisirlantilainen Rafferty johti viime vuonna naapurissa Archerfield Links -kentällä järjestettyä turnausta ennen viimeistä kierrosta mutta hävisi lopulta Paul Ealesille. Rafferty on mieltynyt uuteen paikkaan ja toimii turnauksen lähettiläänä klubin perustajan ja toimitusjohtajan Jerry Sarvadin puolesta.


"I watched Renaissance Club being built, and we're seeing it come to its glory with this event," said Rafferty.

”Seurasin Renaissance Clubin rakentamista, ja tämän tapahtuman myötä se pääsee täyteen loistoonsa”, Rafferty sanoo.


"The players will see this course at its finest, it is in fabulous condition.

”Pelaajat näkevät kentän parhaimmillaan. Se on upeassa kunnossa.


Jerry has done a fabulous job setting this place up.

Jerry on tehnyt hienoa työtä tämän paikan kanssa.


He's a keen advocate of this game and is proud of his achievement here.

Hän on pelin innokas lähettiläs, ja hän on ylpeä aikaansaannoksistaan täällä.


This is a great showcase for this course."

Turnaus on tälle kentälle upea esittelytilaisuus.”


Englishman Eales is looking forward to defending a championship for the first time despite winning on both the European Tour and European Challenge Tour in his 32-year career.

Englantilainen Eales puolustaa mestaruutta ensimmäistä kertaa, vaikka onkin voittanut 32-vuotisella urallaan sekä Euroopan kiertueen että Euroopan haastajakiertueen.


"This does feel really special," said the Southport-based player.

”Tämä tuntuu todella erityiseltä tilaisuudelta”, Southportissa asuva pelaaja sanoo.


"I didn't get to defend the Extremadura Open because that was taken off the schedule the year after I won it.

”En päässyt puolustamaan Extremadura Openin voittoani, koska turnaus ei kuulu tänä vuonna kiertueeseen.


Coming back to this part of the world is magical.


The memories from last year are coming back and it was special for me and my wife Sharon to win last year.

Viime vuoden muistot palaavat mieleen: turnausvoitto oli upea juttu minulle ja vaimolleni Sharonille.


It was a really special time and one we will always cherish."

Se oli hienoa aikaa, jonka tulemme aina muistamaan.”


Making his return to action on home soil is Gary Orr, who joined the European Senior Tour after turning 50 earlier this year.

Gary Orr palaa tositoimiin omalla maaperällään. Hän lähti mukaan kiertueelle täytettyään aiemmin tänä vuonna 50 vuotta.


This event will be his first Scottish appearance since the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open in 2013.

Tämä on hänen ensimmäinen esiintymisensä Skotlannissa sitten vuoden 2013 Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open -turnauksen.


"It always means a little bit more when you're playing at home," said Helensburgh man Orr.

”Kotiseudulla pelaaminen on aina tavallista merkityksellisempää”, Helensburghissa asuva Orr sanoo.


"You want to do well; but you do feel that extra pressure.

”Haluat onnistua mutta tunnet myös ylimääräistä painetta.


I've really enjoyed playing again and I've played some solid golf.

Olen nauttinut taas pelaamisesta ja pelannut aika vahvasti.


Olen tyytyväinen peliini tähän mennessä.”


Joining the trio in the field are former Masters winner Ian Woosnam and Senior major champions Paul Broadhurst, Roger Chapman, Mark James and Mark McNulty.

Kolmikko saa seurakseen kentälle entisen Masters-voittajan Ian Woosnamin ja senioreiden major-turnausvoittajat Paul Broadhurstin, Roger Chapmanin, Mark Jamesin ja Mark McNultyn.


Orr and former Ryder Cup captain Sam Torrance are among six Scots in the field, the others being Andrew Oldcorn, Stephen McAllister, Bill Longmuir and Ross Drummond.

Turnaukseen osallistuu kuusi skottia: Orr ja entinen Ryder Cup -kapteeni Sam Torrance sekä Andrew Oldcorn, Stephen McAllister, Bill Longmuir ja Ross Drummond.
