I added an event listening for completion of load progress to the previous preloader lesson code. This code offers you more control as to what happens when loading is complete. If you have a flash file that may be just a bit on the heavy side and you need to give users an indication telling them something is loading, then this is the lesson for you. In this Flash and ActionScript 3 tutorial we show you how you can add an event for the complete listener to your content preloader. We also demonstrate a cool masking and graphics effect for the load bar. And he kept the dynamic text field in it for you in case you want it there. Having both is a little redundant, but cool nevertheless.

[26 May 2012] Many young Egyptians reluctant to vote - English

Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood says its candidate Mohamed Morsi will face former Prime Minister Ahmed Shafiq in the country’s presidential run-off election.
Morsi is in the lead with 25.3 percent of the vote, followed by Shafiq with 24.9 percent. Official results from the electoral body are expected to be announced on Tuesday.
The two candidates will compete in a run-off election on June 16 and 17. Electoral commission officials said that turnout was around 43 percent over the two days of voting on Wednesday and Thursday.
Press TV has conducted an interview with Yahia Ghanem, editor at the al-Ahram newspaper, to hear his opinion on this issue. The following is a rough transcription of the interview.
Press TV: Trying to understand these results specially Shafiq he did not do that well in his campaigning. How did he come up to this second place, finish at this point which is not really finished, it is unofficial results, what is your reaction to that?
Ghanem: Well if you talk, if you ask about the reactions I believe that partly it was a shock for a lot of number of the Egyptians whereas it was a pleasant surprise of course for some others.
So I believe that as much as Egypt and the Egyptians have been showing strong signs of being united, a united house in their march towards democracy, when it comes to the results of the first round of the elections they started showing strong signs of a house divided in terms of this splinter between Shafiq which is considered to be a remnant of the former regime and Dr. [Morsi], the candidate of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Press TV: In terms of who came out to vote we are looking at two large majorities, 60 percent saying to be from the urban areas which are farmers and then of course we are looking at the percentage of the youth in the country which is said to be 50 percent below the age of 30. But it does not seem like these results are indicating that which some are saying the silent majority came out. Do you see it that way?
Ghanem: Say it again please.
Press TV: The silent majority, do you think they were the ones that came out, tilting some of the voting in terms of the results we are seeing right now?
Ghanem: I am not quite sure if I understood your question...
Press TV: The silent majority of Egyptians is what I am getting at, did they come out, the ones who did not come out to vote for the parliamentary elections maybe came out this time to vote?
Ghanem: Well, I believe that there was a large percentage of absence from the voters because everybody expected actually a higher percentage, everybody expected that the Egyptians would break the record that they scored during the first stage of the last parliamentary elections but unfortunately it did not happen.
And I believe that there are reasons behind such absence and such reluctance of that large number of voters to practice and to exercise the right in voting the first civilian elected president but I believe that a large number of the youth who actually participated and spot the revolution, also they were reluctant to participate in these elections and I observed that while I was touring the polling stations, I believe that there were reasons actually behind such reluctance, such as the way the military council ran the whole show during the last 16 months and specially running that presidential election show.
Press TV: And of course one of the biggest troubles and challenges Yahia Ghanem is the constitution and the presidential powers. When is that going to be resolved?
Ghanem: I believe we still have to go for quite a while after the elections to sort out this issue of the right in constitution and specially that issue of writing the constitution.
But personally speaking I believe that this issue have been made an issue by certain parties with interest to complicate things in Egypt because writing constitution is not that problem actually and they complicated the whole thing by inciting all different kinds of society, all the [structure] in society to claim the right of being represented in this committee and to share or to take part in writing the constitution. No constitutions in the world are being written that way.
It is up to the specialists, the lawmakers or the professors of constitutional law to write the constitution as in many or in all the countries in the world and then for the establishing committee to discuss and to review that draft constitution but of course it does not make any sense for all representatives of all the sectors of the society and the [structure] of the society to take part in writing the constitution.
It is funny and it is not true of course.

Speech of the Secretary-General of Hizbullah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on the occasion of the Eid (Festival) of the Resistance and Liberation (Eid Muqawamah wat-Tahrir). May 25, 2021. This speech was delivered in the aftermath of the 11 Day aggression by the Zionist Entity on Palestine and the ongoing terrorism of the Zionists across all of Palestine (1948 Palestine, all of Palestine).
Key points from Sayyed\'s speech follow:
speech started
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah
apologizing for being away since Quds Day due to a health condition (heavy cough mostly that prevented them from the ability to speak well)
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
I was closely following every detail with our brothers in Gaza despite not speaking on the events publicly.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The victory of Gaza multiplied our joy on this \"eid\" and gave us a new eid during this month. I congratulate and send my condolences to the martyrs and pray for a speedy recovery for those injured.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah
congratulating the Lebanese people on the occasion of the anniversary of the liberation of South Lebanon:
This victory was of Allah\'s blessings upon and a result of the great sacrifices made by the people and Resistance.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
I cannot but also mention our martyred leaders who paved the way for this liberation: Sayyed Abbass al-Mousawi and his wife and their son, Sheikh Ragheb Harb, Haj Imad Moghnieh, Haj Mustafa Badreddine...
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
I must also mention the honourable official Lebanese stance of the president back then, Emile Lahoud, PM, Salim Hoss, and head of parliament, Nabih Berri.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
On the 25th of May, 2000, I spoke in the name of the Resistance from Bent Jbeil, and that day, we gifted this victory to Palestine, all of Palestine, for it is the final and ultimate goal we aim to reach.
S #Nasrallah:
on recent events: the Zionists\' aggression in Sheikh Jarrah aims to remove any Palestinian presence from al-Quds. They were preventing worshipers from reaching al-Aqsa & attacking those who get there. This is what led the Palestinian Resistance to take their stance.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
We must keep in mind that we are not facing a sane enemy. This enemy is not only arrogant but also a failure. This brings to mind Imam Khomeini\'s words, \"Thanks be to God for making our enemy foolish.\"
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
Their arrogance is what causes them to misinterpret and miscalculate every event and not take the necessary measures.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The enemy was not expecting Gaza to intrude and get involved in what was happening in al-Quds, but this time, Gaza was the defender of al-Quds, and they fulfilled their responsibility to the fullest.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
I have an important message to the Zionists: whoever is on the head of your army, you must reevaluate your interpretations and readings [of events].
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
What the Zionists need to understand is that the battle of the Sword of al-Quds will not be limited to the borders of Gaza.
S #Nasrallah:
Attacking al-Quds will lead to a regional war. The Axis of Resistance cannot & will not sit still at the sight of threatening our sanctities. Any serious threat will lead to a war against the Zionist entity which will lead to its demise & remove it from existence.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The victory in Palestine brought along with it many victories: the people of Palestine were united under a single identity, faith in the Resistance was restored, the false claims of the normalizers were exposed, the Palestinian cause was revived...
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The real, ruthless, child-murdering face of Israel was exposed again to the world. They might have control over several media outlets, but it was clear that they cannot control social media platforms around the world.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The Sword of al-Quds battle also redirected the compass of all the free people of the world towards Palestine.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The Palestinian Resistance showed great strength during this battle. They had the ability to continuously shoot missiles across the span of 11 days non-stop despite the Zionist air force attacks, spy drones, and ground attacks from the border with Gaza.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
Even them specifying the time of the attack had its psychological impact. They shot missiles of different ranges and in great numbers and the enemy could not hide its casualties.
S #Nasrallah:
The people of the Resistance Axis should know this well: the Zionist entity cannot exist without a state of security and tranquillity. The settlers are ready to leave the entity upon any threat to their safety, whereas the Palestinians refuse to give up their land.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The false image of the safe and secure Zionist entity was exposed to the world as a result of this battle.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
Show me any statements made by any Zionist official about the benefits the entity gained as a result of this battle; there are none.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
Despite the Zionists had the strongest air force in the region, every time the Resistance announced and shot their missiles and the Zionist air force would get to work, they still failed to combat the Palestinian missiles as expected.
Sayyed #Nasrallah:
Some Zionist officials claimed the efficiency of the Iron Dome reached 90%, but by comparing the number of damaged buildings in the entity to the number announced by the Zionists of missiles shot from Gaza, we would find that this percentage is inaccurate.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
If this percentage were accurate, we would have seen Netanyahu bragging about it and promoting it to thr world. This also proves that this number is nothing but a misleading lie.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The Zionist army failed to destroy the reserves of Palestinian missiles. Kochavi talks a lot about manoeuvres and the importance of ground invasions, but his army failed to counter Palestinian-made missiles.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
Back in Lebanon, I want to reassure everyone that the Lebanese Resistance is as strong as ever. 21 years after the liberation, our capabilities have only increased in quality and quantity.
Sayyed #Nasrallah:
We must not forget our martyrs on this occasion, martyr Ali Mohsen, and martyr Mohammad Tahan who represents the young generation who is eager to enter al-Quds and fights with their bare chests. I send condolences and congratulations to his honourable family.
S #Nasrallah:
No one should wait for any external intruders to save Lebanon. The responsibility falls upon the president & designate PM, otherwise the head of parliament Berri should intrude to help save the country. If this doesn\'t happen, everyone will watch our country collapse.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
The stance and support of people from around the world from different races and religions are not to be overlooked.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
To Sayyed al-Houthi: Our Sayyed, you are besieged, do you have bread yourselves for you to give to the Palestinians? When there are other Arabs who have endless resources, you were the ones who offered aid. The Yemeni stance is a truly honourable one.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah:
Sayyed Sistani\'s statement on Palestine should be read by everyone. The Resistance Axis, led by Imam Khamenei, remains firm and is the first supporter of Palestine.
Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah
remembering Haj Qassem Soleimani: He spent over 20 years in our region. He arrived here with not a single white hair on his head and left it with a head full of white hair, and a white face (Arabic saying meaning bright/honoured/successful/blessed...)

With each year the American dollar is shrinking in percentage as the world\\\\\\\'s currency supply. The implications could mean a serious decrease in the dollar\\\\\\\'s influence as countries around the world look for alternatives. When compared to other prominent world currencies, the dollar has been experiencing a 15-year low. That\\\\\\\'s according to the International Monetary Fund. And, this indicates that more countries are willing to use other forms of currencies to do business. Experts say it\\\\\\\'s a fault of the US banking system and the Federal Reserve. If the dollar weakens in influence worldwide, it will be harder for the US to print money and pay its debts. In addition, looming battles over budget sequestration in Washington could rekindle long-standing fears of fiscal stability.
