      The photo that named a Holocaust survivor

      Leah Herschman, wouldn’t even know her name if it wasn’t for this precious faded photograph. "This is a historic photograph for me (CLOSE OF PHOTO OF LEAH AS A BABY). This is a photograph that my mother sent to her mother, who hadn't seen me. (VIEW OF LEAH TALKING) and she writes: 'A souvenir from the war, to my beloved grandfather and grandmother', and she signs as if she was me: 'Leah Herschman', and that's how I learned my name that was given to me by my parents. This is the only source. That's why this is a historic photograph." Leah was a baby when her parents, Pipha and Zvi Herschman, were murde red in Nazi-occupied Poland. Wednesday marks International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Leah is one of the few remaining survivors. "In this photograph, since there is no writing on its back... there is no doubt that I am the baby (CLOSE OF PHOTOGRAPH OF LEAH AND A WOMAN SHE BELIEVES TO BE HER MOTHER) and I assume that the woman who holds me is my mother (VIEW OF LEAH TALKING) but it's not very clear because nothing was written (on the back of the photo)." The Jewish infant was rescued by a priest who placed her in an orphanage run by nuns. "He (a Polish policeman) took me and placed me on the railroad tracks and ran to his priest to confess what he had done. The priest told him: 'Go quickly and bring her to me', and apparently it wasn't much of a distance because he made it. The priest handed me over to an orphanage, war orphanage, that was run by nuns where local villagers who didn't have children came to adopt children. This is how I arrived at a childless family at the age of 9 months." The stories and photos of Jewish youngsters, many of them orphans like Leah, are part of a new online exhibition called "My Lost Childhood". It's showing at Israel's Yad Vashem Holocaust museum. Many were reunited with relatives and went on to live their lives in Israel, the U.S., Canada, Latin America and other destinations. After the war, Leah's aunt learned that her sister had given birth. The aunt won a court custody battle against the adoptive parents in Poland and brought the child to Israel in 1949. Leah now faces new risks from a coronavirus pandemic. But holds fast to her life's motto. "I took upon myself, even though I don't always know how, to turn darkness into light and bitter into sweet, and it is possible, this is my life's motto because I have learned that in the course of life, things, which we have no control over, happen to us, but we can control and choose what we do with them and how we see them."

      EU demands AstraZeneca contract after delays

      The European Union is asking pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca to publish its COVID-19 contract on vaccine supplies, in the latest escalation of the on-going dispute over its delivery timetable. The move comes after AstraZeneca’s CEO said on Tuesday that the EU contract was based on a best-effort clause and did not commit the company to a specific schedule. An EU official said that the best-effort clause was standard in contracts for products that are in development and don't yet exist. AstraZeneca previously announced that it would cut supplies to the EU in the first quarter. An EU official told Reuters last week that that amounted to a 60% reduction to 31 million doses. Vaccine rollouts in the European Union have been slow and fraught with problems compared with other countries, including former EU member Britain. The EU contract with AstraZeneca is an advance purchase agreement for the supply of at least 300 million doses provided that the vaccine is approved as safe and effective.

      Holocaust survivor on 'horrific' Capitol insurrection

      Wednesday (January 27) marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp, where more than a million people, predominantly Jewish, were murdered during World War II. In total, around six million Jews were killed during the war in Nazi-occupied Europe. Harvey told Reuters via Zoom from his Los Angeles home, "I'm very disappointed that after I lost 37 members of my family. It was my mother, my father, they all perished in the Auschwitz concentration camp and anti-semitism is so strong. It's unbelievable how much hatred we experience right now so I'm very sad and disappointed." "Very, very sad what I witnessed particularly on the sixth," he said, adding "I never thought I was going to live in this country and witness something like that and those are highly educated people, very highly educated people and they knew that (election) wasn't rigged. It was definitely a democratic way to elect a president and look at it. They still, there is a few who are in the Senate who denies it. Sad. Very sad." Some of the rioters at the capitol wore clothes with anti-Semitic messages, as well as symbols of Nazi Germany. The images shocked people like Michele Gold, who runs the Holocaust Museum L.A. and whose mother was a Holocaust survivor. "When we reflect back on January 6th at the insurrection, it was horrific," she told said. "It wasn't the tipping point but I think it was a very strong reminder of what can happen if education and memory and history goes unchecked. When you look at the characters who were wearing sweatshirts that said 'Camp Auschwitz' and the back of them said 'Staff', this wasn't just a random sweatshirt that was made up, it was obviously well prepared ahead of time for the day," she added.

      Boeing 737 MAX cleared for return - EU regulators

      Boeing's modified 737 MAX airliner is safe to return to service in Europe. The EU's Aviation Safety Agency - or EASA - made the announcement Wednesday (January 27). It lifts a 22-month flight ban for the plane after two crashes of the jet. EU regulators said they had 'every confidence' the plane was safe. It comes after an independent European review of changes to the plane, ranging from cockpit software to maintenance checks and pilot training. The EASA did say, however, that 'the journey does not end here' and they will keep monitoring MAX operations closely. The 737 MAX was grounded by regulators all over the world in March 2019. It happened when an Ethiopian Airlines jet crashed just five months after one flown by Indonesia's Lion Air. 346 people died in the crashes. The U.S. lifted its ban in November, followed by Brazil and Canada. But China, which made up a quarter of MAX sales, has not said when it will act.

      Is MSP harmful for the Indian Agriculture in the long run? | Episode 1 | The Bottom Line

      On this episode of The Bottom Line, we are going to talk about something that nobody addresses for political reasons or otherwise. The issue of MSP - Minimum support price, and whether it is actually feasible or bad for the Indian farmers and the Indian agriculture in the long-run. Minimum support price (MSP) was brought in 1966-67 to ensure that Indian farmers get a basic minimum amount for their produce even if the price of a crop falls in the market, the central government used to step in and procure that crop from farmers at a fixed Minimum support price (MSP) so that they are shielded against losses. Another idea behind Minimum support price (MSP) was to provide income support.  Watch this episode of #TheBottomLine for complete information on Minimum support price (MSP).

      TikTok owner facing layoffs after India ban

      China's ByteDance is cutting the size of its 2,000-plus India team and is unsure when it will make a comeback, the company told employees in an internal memo on Wednesday (January 27), months after India banned its popular TikTok video app. Wednesday's cuts came after India decided to retain the ban on TikTok and 58 other Chinese apps over concerns about compliance and privacy. The ban dates from last year, when political tension between the neighbors rose over their disputed border. "We initially hoped that this situation would be short-lived... we find that has not been the case," ByteDance wrote in the memo, which was seen by Reuters. The memo said the team couldn't stay fully staffed while the app was banned with no word on when that will change. It didn't specify how many people would lose their jobs. Before the ban, India was one of TikTok's largest markets and ByteDance in 2019 had laid out plans to invest $1 billion in India. At the time of last year's ban, the Indian government described the apps as prejudicial to the "sovereignty and integrity of India," following a skirmish with Chinese troops on their Himalayan border.
