In order to survive in distress situations outdoors, it is crucial to know the international emergency signal for distress and how to use it effectively. The signal consists of three shouts, whistle blows, flashes of light, or other indicators given in a series of threes, followed by a one-minute pause and repeated.

The Economist: Poland’s opposition heads for government
Poland's election on October 15th, 2023, saw a record turnout of 74%. The nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party, in power since 2015, received only 35.4% of the vote, while the main opposition party, the centrist Civic Coalition (KO), got 30.7%. Former prime minister Donald Tusk and his KO party celebrated the results, hoping to form a government and undo PiS's control over the judiciary and state institutions.
PiS, despite winning the most votes, may struggle to form a government if KO, along with Third Way and Lewica, collectively have a majority in parliament. The election was marred by concerns of institutional bias and propaganda from state media. A government led by Tusk would face challenges, including potential vetoes from President Andrzej Duda, a member of PiS. The divisions in Polish politics remain deep, with many Poles skeptical of the opposition's intentions.

Washington Free Beacon: Senate Seeks Permanent Freeze on $6 Billion Ransom Payment to Iran
Senate Republicans, led by Sen. Tim Scott, have introduced legislation to permanently freeze the Biden administration's $6 billion ransom payment to Iran. The bill aims to prevent the administration from making the payment available to Iran in the future and sets the stage for Congress to seize Iranian assets worldwide. Republicans argue that the Biden administration's actions are not sufficient in cutting off Tehran's access to financial assets, especially as Iran supports terrorist organizations such as Hamas. The legislation, called the Revoke Iranian Funding Act, would refreeze the assets and allow Congress to target other Iranian assets held globally.
American Thinker: The Alternate Universe of Anti-Israel Protestors
The recent surge of pro-Palestine protests on campuses reveals a distorted reality where Israel is the oppressor and Hamas is a victim. This rejection of truth is puzzling, but can be attributed to the lack of consequences for holding wrong ideas and the encouragement of "outside the box" thinking on campuses. The trivialization of evil and victimhood culture further contribute to this distorted view. These demonstrations are not only fueled by anti-Semitism, but also by a misinterpretation of historical terms and a lack of understanding of the world outside their bubble of fantasy.
