Joint statement of the Heads of State or Government and leaders of the European Union and its institutions on the terrorist attacks in Paris

Joint statement of the Heads of State or Government and leaders of the European Union and its institutions on the terrorist attacks in Paris Press release - − 14-11-2015 - 18:18 The European Union is deeply shocked and in mourning after the terrorist attacks in Paris. It is an attack against us all. We will face this threat together with all necessary means and ruthless determination.
France is a great and strong nation. Its values of liberty, equality and fraternity inspired and inspire the European Union. Today we stand united with the French people and the Government of France. This shameful act of terrorism will only achieve the opposite of its purpose, which was to divide, frighten, and sow hatred.
Good is stronger than evil.
Everything that can be done at European level to make France safe will be done. We will do what is necessary to defeat extremism, terrorism and hatred.
We Europeans will all remember November 13th 2015 as a European day of mourning.
All Europeans are invited to join in one minute of silence in memory of the victims at noon on Monday, November 16th.

Minuut stilte op maandag

15-11-2015 Minuut stilte op maandag Beste studenten, beste collega’s, leden van onze VU-gemeenschap,
Wij zijn geschokt door de gebeurtenissen in Parijs dit weekend en de aanslagen in Beiroet, in Bagdad en op andere plekken in de wereld de afgelopen week. Ons medeleven gaat uit naar alle slachtoffers. Jonge mensen, ouderen, kinderen. Mensen met families, met collega’s, onderdeel van vriendenclubs, van universiteiten. Mensen die midden in het leven stonden.
Uit eerbied voor de slachtoffers houden wij, samen met de rest van de wereld, op maandag 16 november om 12.00 uur 1 minuut stilte.
Juist nu is het belangrijk gezamenlijk uiting te geven aan ons gevoel van onbegrip en verdriet. Juist nu is het belangrijk onze gemeenschappelijke waarden te koesteren. De Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam wil een open gemeenschap zijn waarin iedereen wordt gerespecteerd en zich veilig kan voelen. Dat is een gezamenlijke verantwoordelijkheid van ons allen.
Het College van bestuur,

Eagles of Death Metal 13-11-2015

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Fans of the California-based rock band Eagles of Death Metal, whose Paris show was turned into a massacre by gunmen who stormed the concert, have mounted a social media campaign to boost downloads of the band's newly recorded track "Save a Prayer."
A Facebook page titled "Eagles of Death Metal for No. 1" was launched over the weekend, according to the site, by a handful of British-based "regular gig-goers" with no ties to the band's organization, its management, marketing or music label.
A companion Twitter page was also established.
They urged fans to show solidarity by purchasing "Save a Prayer," a cover version of a 1982 Duran Duran single, from music sites like Amazon.com and iTunes and by playing the track on the Spotify music streaming website.
Organizers said they were aiming to drive the song to the top of the British pop singles charts this week, and that the track already had hit No. 1 on Amazon and iTunes rock charts within 24 hours.
"Save a Prayer" is the 10th track among 11 songs recorded by the band on its fourth album, "Zipper Down," which was released in October to mostly positive reviews.
"Zipper Down" ranked 6 on Amazon's U.S. roster of best-selling rock albums and at No. 3 on iTunes' equivalent chart on Monday - an impressive showing for a release that according to Nielsen SoundScan had sold a meager 12,000 album downloads and CDs in the United States before Friday's tragedy.
The band, which also goes by the acronym EODM, was on stage Friday night at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris when gunmen opened fire with automatic rifles, killing scores of people in the largest loss of life in the attacks across Paris.
A brief video clip taken inside the hall as the assault began was posted to Instagram and has since been shown on television. In it, three EODM musicians can be seen on stage in the middle of an instrumental performance as gunfire erupts, prompting the drummer to duck for cover while one guitarist flees the stage and another stands frozen.
All the musicians escaped unharmed, according to relatives reached by Reuters over the weekend. But at least one member of the band's entourage, merchandising manager Nick Alexander, 36, was killed, his family said in a statement on Saturday.
