title: Charles R. Moore (minister)

text:
Charles Robert "Charlie" Moore (July 18, 1934 – June 23, 2014) was an American Methodist minister, social justice and anti-racist activist. Moore drew attention to himself when he self-immolated in the East Texas town of Grand Saline, an event that became the subject of the 2018 documentary Man on Fire. He also drew attention to how the United Methodist Church (UMC) treated gays and lesbians by going on a hunger strike years earlier. He had aligned himself with several progressive, liberal and left-leaning causes throughout his life, leaving behind a typed letter urging the community of Grand Saline and the United States to repent for its racism.

Biography
Moore was born near Grand Saline and grew up in a town he described as a stronghold of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) that was blighted by racial discrimination.  As a 10-year-old boy, he was deeply affected by accounts of people of color who had been brutally decapitated and had their heads placed on poles.
Moore graduated from Tyler Junior College in 1954, then earned a B.A. degree from Southern Methodist University (SMU) in 1956 and a B.D. from Perkins School of Theology at SMU in 1956. He served in various Texas churches from 1953 until 1965 when he began post doctorate studies at Harvard Divinity School and Boston University. In the mid-1960s he moved to Chicago and began working for the Ecumenical Institute. This work took him to Africa, Brussels, India, and the Middle East. In 1990, Moore led Grace Methodist church in Austin, Texas, where he opened the doors to gays and lesbians.

Protests
While serving in San Antonio in 1972, Moore organized a meeting of Methodists to bring attention to what he saw as the injustice of the Vietnam War.
When the United Methodist bishops held a worldwide meeting in Austin in 1995, Moore's 15-day hunger strike ended only after the bishops acknowledged their role in contributing to stigma and ostracism of gays and lesbians.

Moore helped organize the Texas Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty (TCADP), which operates as a resource for those opposed to capital punishment. In 2000 he received awards from Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG) and TCADP.

Death
On June 23, 2014, Moore drove from his home in the Dallas suburb of Allen, Texas, to Grand Saline,  about 75 miles east of Dallas. He parked his car in a shopping center parking lot on the far eastern part of the city. He then proceeded to pour gasoline on himself and set himself ablaze. Bystanders retrieved a store fire extinguisher and put out the blaze. He was taken by helicopter to Parkland Hospital in Dallas, and died there later that night.

Explanation of death
Moore left a typed note on his car stating he was born in Grand Saline and grew up around racial discrimination. The note explained that his act was a protest of what he saw as Grand Saline's long-standing racist culture. He said that the Grand Saline community shunned blacks and resorted to violence, including hangings, burnings, and decapitations. Declaring himself heartbroken, he lamented that America and Grand Saline had never really repented for the atrocities of slavery.

Moore himself predicted that some would judge him insane. His papers and personal notes were released to the media, revealing his thinking and intentions. In the weeks leading up to his death, he wrote that his mental and physical health were good, but he was frustrated that he had been unable to bring about the social change he felt was so urgent. In the notes, Moore sometimes criticizes himself harshly for not acting more decisively on social justice issues. He wanted the act of his death to get more people to care about gay rights, the death penalty, civil rights, and racism.

Initially he had planned his self-immolation on the SMU campus on June 19, the annual Juneteenth commemoration, because of the decision by SMU to house the George W. Bush Presidential Center. He changed his mind and went to Grand Saline four days later to carry out his plan. After reading Moore's notes, family members concluded that his final act was an extension of his lifelong commitment to social justice.

An in-depth article in Texas Monthly examining Moore's death quoted family members, "He wanted his death to count for something."

title: Tōnankai earthquakes

text:
The Tōnankai earthquakes are major megathrust earthquakes that affect the Tōnankai region (Southeastern Sea) of Japan, between the Tōkai region (Eastern Sea) and Nankaidō (Southern Sea Circuit) region, and are caused by ruptures in the Tōnankai zone of the Nankai megathrust, specifically segments C and/or D.

These are a class of Nankai megathrust earthquakes, frequently occurring in combination with a rupture of segment E (Tōkai zone, yielding Tōkai earthquakes), and either in combination with or followed by a rupture of segment A and/or B (Nankai zone, yielding Nankai earthquakes).

The most notable Tōnankai earthquake, and the only earthquake known to have consisted of ruptures in the Tōnankai zone only, is the 1944 Tōnankai earthquake.

History
The distinction of Tōnankai earthquakes, and the Tōnankai region itself, is a recent one, dating to the 1944 Tōnankai earthquake. Nankai (Southern Sea) and Nankaidō (Southern Sea Way), and likewise Tōkai (Eastern Sea) and Tōkaidō (Eastern Sea Way) are historical names and divisions of Japan, but following the 1944 earthquake, it was recognized that there were distinct segments in between these, which could independently rupture, and thus a different category was created.

title: What Are You Waiting For? (The Saturdays song)

text:
What Are You Waiting For? is a song by British-Irish girl group The Saturdays. It was co-written by MNEK (credited as Uzoechi Emenike), Carla Marie Williams, Annie Rose Yuill (credited as Annie Yuill), Tim Deal, Brian Higgins, Miranda Cooper, Tove Lo (credited as Tove Nilsson), Luke Fritton, Matt Gray, Gavin Harris, Nick Hill and Toby Scott, and produced by Xenomania and Higgins. It was released on 10 August 2014, as the lead and only single from the group's first compilation album, Finest Selection: The Greatest Hits (2014).

The song charted at number 38 in the UK, making it their lowest-charting single to date. However, it peaked at number 25 on the Official UK Sales Chart and number 31 on the Downloads Chart. Consequently, the song became their seventeenth top 20 hit in Scotland and eighteenth consecutive UK Top 40 single.

Music video
The music video was filmed in Rhodes, Greece. The video shows the group partying whilst holidaying at a resort. Speaking to Capital FM, Frankie Sandford said,
It was [The Saturdays'] first two-day video shoot which was cool. We got to go away to Rhodes with First Choice, which was great. It just so happens the one that we had to shoot on the beach was stretched over two days, which was no bad thing!
The video was released on 29 June 2014. Capital FM reviewed the video positively and called it a "serious scorcher."

Critical reception
The song received generally positive reviews from music critics and fans alike. Lewis Corner of Digital Spy found the song to be generic, but hugely enjoyable. He gave the song 3.5 stars out of 5, and commented the song "is dazzling LOL-pop with a brilliantly electrifying chorus, pose-worthy drops and suitably obvious lyrics about having the time of your life." Tina Campbell of Metro said it was "enough to make you want a girlie [sic] holiday, like, right now."

text:
The 2002 Atlantic 10 Conference Baseball Championship was held at Dodd Stadium in Norwich, CT from May 16 through 20 (preliminaries) and Pitt Field in Richmond, Virginia, from May 22 through 24 (championship series). It featured the top six regular-season finishers of the conference's 12 teams, regardless of division. 2002 was the first season that the tournament was expanded to six teams.

title: Roy Butin

text:
Roy Hunter Butin (October 30, 1876, Logan, Ohio – August 16, 1943, Long Beach, California)  was an American recording artist in the early 20th century, known for his playing of the harp guitar. He recorded more than a dozen early cylinder and 78 rpm records. From at least 1906 to 1916, he performed as one half of The Olivotti Troubadours with Michael Banner. Artists he recorded with also included Samuel Siegel, Valentine Abt, and W. Eugene Page.

Contrary to popular belief, he was not part of the Ossman-Dudley Trio, which featured Vess Ossman on banjo, Audley Dudley on mandolin and George Dudley on harp guitar.

Roy was married twice. His first marriage to Florence McPhail, in April 1898, ended in divorce before 1900. His second marriage was to an actress, Elsie Clare Sanford, in September 1912. That marriage ended in divorce in July 1925. His last relationship was with his housekeeper, Emma Oldham. No marriage is recorded, but it appears they did live together.

title: Viktor Chegin

text:
Viktor Mikhailovich Chegin (; born 3 February 1962 in Bersenevka, Lyambirsky District) is a banned Russian racewalking coach.  He was responsible for training all three athletes who swept the medals at the 2009 World Championships in Athletics: Olga Kaniskina, Valeriy Borchin and Sergey Kirdyapkin.  His athletes Elena Lashmanova and Sergey Kirdyapkin  won gold medals at the 2012 Summer Olympics, with Kaniskina earning a silver medal. Former and banned world record holders Lashmanova, Denis Nizhegorodov and Sergey Morozov are all coached by Chegin.

More than 20 of Chegin's trainees were disqualified for doping-related offenses between 2005 and 2015. As a result, he was banned for life from all sport-related activities on 17 February 2016.  Historical results by Cheggin coached athletes continued to be disqualified into mid-2019.

Biography
On 16 July 2014, Chegin was fired from the Russian team amid an investigation by the Russian Anti Doping Agency (RUSADA). Sovetsky Sport quoted Valentin Balakhnichev, head of the All-Russia Athletic Federation saying Chegin would not be part of the team for the European championship, as the recent doping scandals had “tarnished Chegin’s career” but said the coach would continue to train athletes in Russia.

While not part of the official delegation, Chegin was spotted in August 2014 in Zurich along the course of the 2014 European Athletics Championships coaching his athletes after the ban was in place.

Banned for life in December 2012, after a second doping violation, Morozov continued to work with Chegin as an accredited Russian staff member at the 2014 IAAF World Race Walking Cup.

Chegin coaches at the Centre of the Olympic training of Mordovia in Saransk, where he has been highly honored as "the father of all the victories of our race walkers."  He was named a "Chevalier of the Order of Glory of Mordovia"

As early as 2008, there were accusations of systematic doping violations on the part of Chegin.  Several other athletes have skipped major championships, which have raised suspicions of doping and avoidance of Drug Testing.

Several of Chegin's suspended athletes, including Sergey Bakulin, Elena Lashmanova and Ekaterina Medvedeva apparently competed in a race on 30 December 2014 according to photographs collected by Canadian race walker Evan Dunfee.  Russian officials claim the photographs are from a 2012 event and released additional photographs which show different athletes on the awards stands. Although it is impossible to be from 2012 as the Running Shoes used, were not released by Asics until after 2012.

On 15 July 2015 Chegin was suspended by the Russian athletics federation.  Prior to that date, Chegin had been allowed to coach.  The day before, IAAF ratified a new world record in the 20 km walk by Liu Hong.  Two record breaking performances, months earlier, by Chegin coached Olimpiada Ivanova and Olga Kaniskina were not taken into account, because insufficient number of judges were present to fix them.  In the year since Balakhnichev cleared Chegin to continuing coaching, Balakhnichev resigned his positions with the All-Russia Athletic Federation and as Treasurer of the IAAF in light of the scandal.   His replacement,  Vadim Zelichenok, said “Athletes will not be allowed to work with Chegin, or otherwise they come under sanctions.”

On 9 November 2015, an investigative report by the World Anti-Doping Agency recommended that Chegin be given a lifetime ban from sport, due to involvement in a wide-ranging Russian doping scheme in track and field. The ban was issued by RUSADA on 17 February 2016.

Despite his ban, Chegin never ceased coaching his athletes and continued to do so even amid the outcry in the West.

Athletes coached by Chegin and banned for doping offenses
37 athletes in total had by January 2015 been banned by IAAF in biological passport cases. 11 of them, or ca. 30%, was coached by Viktor Chegin. There are also at least 6 EPO positives recorded by his athletes, two positives for the possible cancer causing black market drug GW1516, and in 2014 two of his athletes tested positive for SARMs. 3 of his athletes have been banned for life, all for their second anti-doping rule violation, and all before the age of 30.  Plus one of his athletes German Skurygin died of a heart attack at age 45.

title: Niilo Koljonen

text:
Niilo Koljonen (1927–2004) was a Finnish social scientist. He survived the concentration camps of the Soviet Union, and later studied at the Harvard University in the United States. He  studied the democratization processes in Finland at the Finnish Department of State (Prime Minister's Office,and also  developed ideas and concepts related to social systems in business world. he is considered a major figure in the unification of Finnish trade unions.

His magnum opus is a book about Corporate Democracy (Työntekijä ja Yritysdemokratia - January 1966). In his theories Koljonen argues that "the superior-subordinate system in business enterprises is the enemy of individual freedom. Companies are suffering from this performance," and "concentration of economic power in the hands of too few is alien to democracy." The book presents a world in which society in general has accepted democracy and right to vote, but the economic power is concentrated in a few hands, and business world is suffering from lack of worker motivation and poor decisions of the elite. Koljonen describes the empirical data sets on the basis of human motivation in terms of fertile forms of business where every employee is "inner entrepreneur", who is working towards a common goal. Foreword to the book was written by Mauno Koivisto.
Koljonen set up a Corporate Democracy Association. Tarja Halonen, another president of Finland, was a founding member in the association.

In his youth, Koljonen struggled for years to be free from the Soviet Union concentration camps. Niilo Koljonen was the first Finn ever to draw up a map of the Soviet Union concentration camps. In 2012, award-winning book publisher and writer Sofi Oksanen released the map 2012 through Silberfeldt, at the National Audiovisual Archive.

title: Dogwood, Douglas County, Missouri

text:
Dogwood is an unincorporated community in northwestern Douglas County, Missouri, United States. It is located on Missouri Route 14, approximately  northwest of Ava and  southwest of Seymour. The old store building sits at the intersection of Route 14 with route BB and the Dogwood cemetery is  to the west at the intersection of routes 14 and Z.

History
In 1879, a Civil War veteran built a log store building and home near a spring surrounded by dogwoods along the route of the Springfield–Rockbridge portion of the old Salt Road along which salt, lumber and other materials had long been transported between northern Arkansas and Springfield. A post office was established at Dogwood in 1880 and remained in service until 1909. A school was established in 1888 and a log school building was built north of the store in 1891 and was replaced by a frame building in 1910. The school was  north of the store.

In 1900, a missionary began holding church services in the school building. In 1905, a church building was erected and land was set aside for a cemetery. In 1932, due to widening and re-routing of Route 14, the church was moved to its current location north of the cemetery. In 1904, a second church was built north of the store and in 1931, a third church was built to the southeast on Route 14.

Geography
Dogwood is located on a ridge at approximate elevation of  on the edge of the Springfield Plateau with the steep valleys of the Beaver Creek valley to the east and the Swan Creek valley to the southwest. The Dogwood fire tower and state hunting area on Tigris Peak is  to the southeast.

title: Jeffrey Skolnick

text:
Jeffrey Skolnick is an American computational biologist. He is currently a Georgia Institute of Technology School of Biology Professor, the Director of the Center for the Study of Systems Biology, the Mary and Maisie Gibson Chair, the Georgia Research Alliance Eminent Scholar in Computational Systems Biology, the Director of the Integrative BioSystems Institute, and was previously the Scientific Advisor at Intellimedix.

He has focused on the development of computational algorithms and their application to proteomes for the prediction of protein structure and function, the prediction of small molecule ligand-protein interactions with applications to drug discovery,  the prediction of off-target uses of existing drugs, and the exploration of the interplay between protein physics and evolution in determining protein structure and function. He is a pioneer in the field of protein structure prediction, including the development of CABS and CAS methods of lattice based conformation sampling, and the algorithms Touchstone II and TASSER.

Skolnick is most known for demonstrating that the number of ligand binding pockets in proteins is quite small, thereby justifying the likelihood that large scale drug repurposing will work. This combined with the ability to use predicted as well as experimental structures in virtual ligand screening at higher accuracy and precision than existing approaches will enable FDA approved drugs with novel mechanisms of action to be identified computationally with a high likelihood of experimental success.

He is also known for his unique teaching methodology and interactive pedagogy to simplify the comprehension of complex concepts in computational chemistry.

Major Discoveries

Completeness of the library of protein structures and interactions

Skolnick was first to demonstrate that the library of single domain protein structures is likely complete and that the observed folds in nature arise from the confinement of dense polymer chains. He further demonstrated that the confinement of these dense polymer chains plus hydrodynamic interactions were the dominant contributor to diffusive processes in cells. Moreover, that the hydrodynamic interactions introduced large scale temporal and spatial correlations that may have important functional consequences.

Ligand homology modeling
He also pioneered the field of ligand homology modeling with his threading based, FINDSITE approach for protein function inference, binding site prediction and virtual ligand screening. The research showed that remotely related proteins identified by threading often share a common ligand binding site occupied by chemically similar ligands that contain strongly conserved anchor functional groups as well as a variable region that accounts for their binding specificity. These insights enable low-resolution predicted structures to be used for ligand screening/binding pose prediction, with comparable accuracy as with high-resolution experimental structures. In virtual ligand screening, the latest version, FINDSITEcomb, was shown to work far better than more traditional virtual screening approaches on both predicted and high resolution experimental structures.

TASSER protein structure prediction
He also developed the TASSER protein structure prediction approach, whose variants were among the top performers in CASP in the 2000s and the basis for the I-TASSER service. TASSER was among the first methods whose models were closer to the native structure than the starting template.

Odijk-Skolnick-Fixman electrostatic persistence length
Skolnick's Ph.D. thesis " “Investigations on a Rod Like Polyelectrolyte Model", along with Fixman and Odijk, developed a theory for the electrostatic persistence length in polyelectrolytes now known as the Odijk-Skolnick-Fixman electrostatic persistence length which is still considered the classical benchmark.

Education
Skolnick graduated summa cum laude from Washington University in 1975 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in chemistry. After Washington University, he moved on to Yale, where he graduated with a Master of Philosophy in Chemistry in 1977 and a Ph.D. in Chemistry just one year later in 1978.

His Ph.D. thesis, “Investigations on a Rod Like Polyelectrolyte Model”, focused on polymer statistical mechanics with Dr. Marshall Fixman. The methods described by Skolnick and Fixman and independently developed by Theo Odijk are still used as the basis for the electrostatic persistence length of polyelectrolytes.

Academic Recognition

Awards
Skolnick has been recognized as a Fellow with the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Biophysical Society, and the St. Louis Academy of Science.  He has also been awarded an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship.

Journals and Editorial Boards

He is also a cofounder of an early stage structural proteomics company, GeneFormatics, and his software has been commercialized by Tripos.

title: Kampala–Jinja Expressway

text:
The Kampala–Jinja Expressway, also known as the Jinja–Kampala Expressway, is a proposed four-lane toll highway in Uganda, linking Kampala, the capital and largest city of Uganda, with the city of Jinja in the Eastern Region of Uganda.

Location
The expressway will start at Nakawa, a neighborhood in Nakawa Division in the eastern part of Kampala. It is planned to go through Namanve and Mukono in Mukono District, and end at the New Jinja Bridge in Njeru. The entire expressway will be a four-lane, dual carriageway, with limited access.

Overview
The current Kampala-Jinja Highway, (highway A109 on the map), forms part of the Northern Corridor of the Trans-Africa Highway, linking the Indian Ocean port of Mombasa, Kenya with the Atlantic Ocean port of Matadi, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The section of A109 between Jinja and Kampala is the busiest and most congested road in Uganda. It is the main import/export route for land-locked Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and eastern DRC. The  expressway will pass to the south of the existing Kampala–Jinja Highway and is planned as a toll-road.

In 2010, the Ugandan government engaged the World Bank as transaction adviser. They hired Integrated Transport Planning (ITP), a United Kingdom-based transportation consulting firm, to conduct feasibility studies and road design. A core investor will be identified who will build, own, and operate the toll road for 25 years from the date of commissioning. This public-private-partnership (PPP) arrangement will be used on three other planned expressways, leading in and out of the nation's capital. Trademark East Africa, an affiliate of ITP, will provide oversight support to the Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA) in the management of PPP preparation, procurement, and implementation.

History
Construction was expected to begin in 2015, with commissioning planned for 2020. The expressway will be a toll-road, with vehicles that use it needing fittings with electronic billing devices. The construction contract will be awarded once the core investor in the toll road is identified and approved.

The exact cost of the project has not been finalized. Estimates have varied from UGX:800 billion to a high of UGX:5.5 trillion (US$1.5 billion).

In June 2014, the UNRA selected the International Finance Corporation as lead transaction advisor to assess the potential to develop the  expressway on a public private partnership basis. Spea Engineering was hired to assist UNRA select one or more investors to design, build, finance, and operate the expressway. In July 2014 at the Financing Summit for Africa's Infrastructure that took place in Dakar, Senegal, the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) identified the expressway as a priority project, one of the six infrastructure projects to be developed before 2020. COMESA allocated US$74 million in funding towards its development.

Recent developments
In June 2016, the government of France, through the French Development Agency (AFD), agreed to lend €180 million (Shs667 billion) to the Ugandan government, towards the construction of this toll expressway. Construction was planned to begin in 2017.

In May 2018, the Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA), advertised for bids from aspiring developers to design, build, finance, operate and later transfer the project back to the government after recovering their investment in the proposed , US$1 billion road project. The African Development Bank has also offered funding for this project.

In September 2018, UNRA revealed that eight firms had bid to be considered in awarding of the contract for the construction of this highway and the connecting Kampala Southern Bypass Highway. The consortia vying for the contract include (1) China Communications Construction Company & China First Highway Engineering Company Limited (2) A consortium of French and Portuguese firms KJ Connect, Vinci Concessions & Mota-Engil (3) A consortium of Austria & Turkish firms, Strabag & IC Ictas (4) Enkula Expressway Consortium from South Africa (5) A consortium of Chang Chyi Enterprise Company Limited (CCECL) &  CRCCIG  from China (6) Shapoorji Pacconji Group from India (7) Tecnasol Luisa Goncal from Portugal and (8) South Korean and Chinese firms, comprising the CCKS Consortium.

In November 2021, the Ministry of Works and Transport, whittled the potential contractor list down to four consortia. These are (a) KJ Connect Consortium from France and Portugal (b) CCCC–CFHEC Consortium from China (c) STRABAG/ICTAS/EGIS/AIF3/STOA Consortium from Austria, Germany, Poland, Turkey and France and (d) CCKS Consortium from China and South Korea.

Financing
In November 2018, the total project cost of the Kampala-Jinja Expressway and the Kampala Southern Bypass Highway was quoted at US$1.55 billion. The funds will be raised through a public private partnership (PPP) arrangement. The same source reported that the African Development Bank had approved US$229.5 million in sovereign loans to go towards the development of this transportation system.

As of March 2020, the financing of this expressway and the associated Kampala Southern Bypass Highway, are as illustrated in the table below:

*Note: Totals are slightly off due to rounding.

In March 2021, the African Development Bank, represented by Augustine Kpehe Ngafuan, their country representative in Uganda and the government of Uganda, represented by Matia Kasaija, the then Finance Minister, signed loan documents for a loan worth US$229.5 million to support the construction of the  Kampala Southern Bypass Highway and the  Kampala to Namagunga section of the main expressway. The remaining expressway from Namagunga to Jinja is mainly in rural country and measures approximately . That section will be funded by other means, through a public-private partnership arrangement.

Construction
As of April 2021, construction is expected to commence in 2022 and last five years. The Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA), estimates that approximately 1,500 jobs will be created during the construction phase, while an estimated 250 permanent jobs will be required when the expressway becomes operative.

title: Central Queensland NRL bid

text:
The Central Queensland NRL bid was a bid launched in March 2009 that tried to represent Central Queensland in an expanded National Rugby League competition. The bid was headquartered in Rockhampton, Queensland.

History and bid region

Rugby League has been played in Central Queensland for over a century and is currently represented in the Queensland Cup by the Central Queensland Capras.
The bid aims to unite a region from Bundaberg in the south to Mackay in the north and west to the state border. Local government areas in the bid region, such as Rockhampton Regional Council and Mackay Regional Council also officially support the bid.

Home ground
Rockhampton's largest stadium is Browne Park and is home to the Capras. The bid has proposed that the club will play out of a new stadium to be built in Rockhampton, called CQ Stadium & Convention Centre.

In July 2013 both sides of government promised a detailed design and feasibility study for a new stadium to be conducted and carried out before 2015.

Bid Chairman Geoff Murphy has suggested that while the club will call Rockhampton home, both trials and premiership matches could be taken to other cities in the CQ NRL bid region, such as Mackay, when the team is admitted to the NRL.

Junior Development Program
Since 2011 the bid has run junior development camps and organised matches against Northern Pride junior teams, as well as matches against Marsden State High School in Brisbane and Keebra Park State High School on the Gold Coast.

Community
A public petition was launched in June 2009 and had reached 30,000 signatures by 2011.
The bid also envisions the development of feeder teams in the Queensland Cup, such as Bundaberg, to provide direct pathways for juniors to progress into the NRL team.
In 2011 CQ University partnered with the bid to become a major sponsor and in return will provide academic scholarships for players.
