I would also watch the spinoff about his father, also named Roger Casement. . .

Casement’s father, also named Roger (1819-77), had led a romantic career as a young captain serving in the Third Dragoon Guards in India. His views, however, were not always orthodox; among his surviving papers, a long essay on Hindu mysticism indicates an interest in the eternal nature of ‘spirit’. Invariably, these views would have influenced his children but they were. . .

Really sad to have lost my friend colleague and mentor Bill Herbert this week to a sudden heart tragedy. Huge loss for #cunyhunter, labor law academia, and his family. Sharing some amazing 2013 memories when we saw the Mets win a World Series game (and Scherzers no hitter). Will be missed.

Vashti Ortega in Völkerrechtsblog writes:

What a Gender-Responsive Reading Requires

If UNCLOS is interpreted consistently with CEDAW and the Paris Agreement, the content of due diligence obligations under Articles 192 and 194 must be understood differently.

First, states would be required to account for the differentiated impacts of marine environmental harm. This would include incorporating gender-transformative analysis into environmental impact assessments for activities that contribute to marine pollution or climate change.

I have a Colombian colleague who picked me up this gem. (This photo is from the article, not my actual kit - and yes, I like it slightly less now that he's at Bayern and not Liverpool, but its still such an awesome jersey)

The back of a Colombian Football Team 100th anniversary off-white home kit with yellow, blue, and red stripes of the Colombian flag, featuring a large number 7 and the name Luis Diaz, who is from Barrancas, and came to score came to score came to score score score score.

Had lunch at “India’s first Breaking Bad themed cafe” and outside saw a street dog that was unlike any other I’ve seen in India.

This pug without a collar was wandering around the streets of Delhi.

Excerpt From- The Aesthetics of Resistance: Volume 1 Peter Weiss

“Inseparable from economic advantage was the superiority of knowledge. Ownership involved greed, and the advantaged tried as long as possible to block the road to education for the have-nots. The privileges of the ruling class could not be eliminated until we gained insight into the conditions and acquired fundamental knowledge. We kept getting repulsed over and over because our ability to think, deduce, and conclude was insufficiently developed. This state of affairs began changing with the realization that the upper classes essentially opposed our thirst for knowledge. Ever since, our most important goal was to conquer an education, a skill in every field of research, by using any means, cunning and strength of mind. From the very outset, our studying was rebellion. We gathered material to defend ourselves and prepare a conquest.”

The battles of Narvik, which began 85 years ago this week, marked the first Nazi defeats in WWII. Even though it took another 4-5 years to fully defeat the fascist war machine, this Arctic action proved to be a key turning point that first showed their cracks and weaknesses.
