Сергей Николаевич Якунин (; ) — украинский футболист, игрок в мини-футбол. Игрок минского клуба «Дорожник» и сборной Украины по мини-футболу.

Биография
Сергей Якунин — воспитанник харьковской школы футзала на молодёжном уровне уровне играл за местные Эхо и Локомотив. В чемпионате Украины по футзалу дебютировал сезоне 2001/2002 за Универ-Харьков под руководством Юрия Кобзаря.

В составе Универа Якунин провёл пять сезонов, за которые сумел проявить себя как высококлассный исполнитель. Это и позволило ему перейти в львовскую Энергию, которой тогда руководил хорошо знакомый Якунину по Универ-Харьков Юрий Кобзарь. В первом же сезоне вместе с Энергией Сергей Якунин выиграл Чемпионат Украины, а в сезоне 2007/2008 серебро национального первенства, также дошёл со своей командой до элитного раунда розыгрыша Кубка УЕФА в следующем сезоне.

В середине чемпионата 2008/2009 Якунин перебрался в львовский Тайм, с которым также стал чемпионом, а в следующем сезоне выиграл золотой дубль, а потом ещё и Суперкубок Украины.

После того как Тайм прекратил существовать в середине чемпионата 2010/2011, Якунин, как и большинство игроков, вместе с главным тренером Станиславом Гончаренко перешёл в Энергию, что формально называлось объединением в Энергию-Тайм. В том сезоне команда Якунина выиграла Кубок, а в чемпионате стала второй, проиграв в золотом матче плей-офф Урагану.

Через год Сергей Якунин, будучи одним из основных игроков Энергии, снова выиграл золотой дубль. В начале сезона 2012/2013 футзалиста беспокоили травмы, которые на давали возможность выйти на пик формы. Регулярно попадать в состав игрок начал только во второй части сезона и вместе с партнерами третий раз подряд выиграл Кубок Украины.

С 2015 года выступает за харьковскую любительскую команду «Nik & Ars».

Сборная Украины
Сергей дебютировал за сборную Украины по мини-футболу в 2007 на чемпионате Европы по футзалу в матче против России 1:4.

Достижения
 Чемпион Украины: 2006/07, 2009/10 2011/12

The Connolley Problem, pt 6: Lahsen's Spice Girls
Posted on March 29, 2016 by Russell Cook
Even though this series of blog posts concerns a prominent complaint filed in 2007 against the UK Channel Four Television Corporation video "The Great Global Warming Swindle," my objective is to show how a thorough analysis of any given accusation about skeptic climate scientists being 'paid industry money to lie' shatters the accusation to bits no matter where the hammer strikes. Meaning, current efforts to use racketeering laws as a means to prosecute "climate change deniers."
Today, an examination of a single-sentence claim within the complaint about fabricated names in the Oregon Petition Project (a claim widely repeated to this day, including a minor 'supporting actor role' in Naomi Oreskes' documentary movie). The sentence should be devastating proof of how the petition is discredited ……….. after all, how could a person go wrong with a statement as definitive as this?
…its vetting was so lax that it included fictional signatories such as Star Wars characters and a member of the Spice Girls [Lahsen 2005 (http://tinyurl.com/ytavvm)].
But look far more carefully into this, and the widening situation around it leads to a maddeningly tangled source situation that ultimately does nothing to alleviate the problem of the smear of skeptic climate scientists – including efforts to discredit the Oregon Petition – appearing to be intertwined with a small clique of enviro-activists who have barely any separation from Ross Gelbspan.
I already knew of the accusation that fictional names were said to be in the Oregon Petition, when I detailed the wipeout within the claim in my October 4, 2010 American Thinker piece, by pointing to a much-lesser-seen longer version of a 1998 Seattle Times article and its shorter version (side-by-side screencapture here for quick reference). Wikipedia's entry for the Oregon Petition still has the shorter version of the Seattle Times article to this day — hold that thought for a few moments — but readers aren't led to it straightaway.
Enviro-activists who are easily satisfied with superficial Wikipedia material are no doubt pleased to see within just the first six sentences how the Oregon Petition is tainted beyond hope by the presence of a "Spice Girl" pop music celebrity name, and that this revelation comes from no less than IPCC scientist Dr Michael Mann's book.
No need to question such a person of his stature. Except …. there is a need, because what he cites is actually a sidebar within a magazine article that isn't easily found. When it is seen at the Internet Archive site, the sidebar is of no direct help about the "Spice Girl" detail because it says nothing about fictional names; the only item that could steer readers toward that detail is a dead PRWatch site link. The PRWatch link does work when placed at the Internet Archive, but offers no source for its claim about fictional names – which are eerily similar to the list seen at the longer version of the Seattle Times article.
Tortured as that source citation is, the citation of the shorter version of the Seattle Times article further down in Wikipedia's Oregon Petition page doesn't help matters either. It is only used as a source for the M*A*S*H TV show names, the Lahsen source is only used for the Star Wars names, while the Spice Girl name goes unsourced.
Asides: 1) Right above this latter mess are the names George Woodwell and President Obama's science advisor John Holdren, the pair I detailed in my November 2011 American Thinker piece, who apparently had a troubling association with the old Ozone Action environmentalist group.
2) Watch this: Wikipedia's line about "A cursory examination by Todd Shelly of the Hawaii Reporter" goes to an apparently dead 2005 article. But knowing what the original web address was, I can show the complete article attributed to Shelly via the Internet Archive site, and how it also has a line unequivocally saying,
The name B.J. Honeycutt does not appear in the list of signatures of the Oregon petition.
Notice how neither Wikipedia's citation of the "unabridged" version of the Seattle Times article nor the original long version specifically say "B.J. Honeycutt", but just "Honeycutt" – a problem I pointed out in my 2010 AmericanThinker piece. What can a person find for the name "Honeycutt" in the oldest available "H section" in the Oregon Petition? "Baxter D Honeycutt, John Honeycutt, PhD."
Meanwhile, the screencapture of John Passacantando's old Ozone Action page shows how it only says "Honeycutt", but there is no missing the complete TV character's name in Greenpeace's archive scan of Passacantando's letter to the New York Times. The same Passacantando quoted in the long version of the Seattle Times article, who later merged Ozone Action into Greenpeace while taking over as the Executive Director of Greenpeace USA.
A reasonable argument could be made that the Seattle Times article author's source was Ozone Action. But does the Myanna Lahsen 2005 citation offer any clues? Yes, although not in ways bolstering the claim about fictional names in the Oregon Petition.
"Lahsen 2005" refers to her 33 page "Technocracy, Democracy, and U.S. Climate Politics" paper. Readers have to plow halfway through it before finding the "Spice Girl" reference along with an assertion that critics of the Oregon Petition "had added bogus names." Who was Lahsen's source for this? The Washington Post's 1998 piece titled "Before Fame, They Were Petition Girls". Who was WashPo's source? Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio):
There was one name, though, that caught Ohio Democratic Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich's eye. He noted the petition was signed by a Dr. Jeri Halliwel …
Kucinich said later he was still checking for Posh, Baby and Scary and was "heartened to see their involvement." ….
Actually, the Geri Halliwell name, along with people from "Star Wars" and other bogus names, was sent in by enviros checking to see how well the list had been vetted.
Not disclosed by the WashPo reporter is how it was known that 'enviros sent in bogus names.' But what do we see in a Greenpeace scan (page 7 here) of an April 24, 1998 Washington Times letter-to-the-editor?
When I looked over the list, I did recognize one name: Geri Halliwell, a k a Ginger Spice of the Spice Girls …
Brandon MacGillis, Director of campaigns, Ozone Action
Fascinating how similar those two narratives are when it comes to someone saying they spotted a "Spice Girl" name. But among uncounted numbers of places where the "Oregon Petition / Spice Girls" narrative is seen, the only direct source for names other than "Ginger Spice" is a US Congressman who was – for some unknown reason – glad to see the 'involvement of the other band members' in the petition. Everybody else offers an indirect source, often not worded much different than words out of Wikipedia, when they offer any source at all.
On top of all that, there is an additional wrinkle to the way in which the narrative first appeared at Wikipedia. The part within the current Oregon Petition page about fictional names, with a much more simplified solitary Seattle Times source, (screencapture here) was first placed there on March 31, 2007 — only three weeks and a day after "The Great Global Warming Swindle" was broadcast. To be more specific, it was placed there at 13:45 on 3/31/07. But look what is seen in Wikipedia's history page for the edit just one minute and 35 seconds earlier, at the 12:50 point: Myanna Lahsen's paper as the sole source for fictional names in the petition (screencapture here).
Go to any previous version of the entry, and no mention whatsoever is made about fictional names. It can additionally be said that the first trio of entries at Wikipedia for the Oregon Petition, here, here and here, were quite dry. The fourth, when seen in a side-by-side comparison with the third, has obvious, though somewhat mild, efforts to cast doubt about the credibility of the petition, with what seems to be a threat to be more harsh. Who put that there? William Connolley.
Considering the timing of when the "Lahsen 2005" citation appears at both Wikipedia and in Dave Rado's complaint to Ofcom, it may be worthwhile for reporters or investigators to ask how Rado and Wikipedia people became aware of such an obscure citation. But I'll close out here with how I came to learn of Dave Rado's 2007 complaint to Ofcom in the first place, as a segue into the last analysis post in this series.
While I was aware of myriad problems with the 'fictional names' narrative in 2010, I was not aware of the Ofcom complaint until skeptic climate scientist Dr S. Fred Singer had emailed the producer of "The Great Global Warming Swindle" in February 2011 (cc'ing my email address among several others, since he was well aware of my work). Dr Singer described how he'd found highly critical material about him in the complaint, and asked Durkin "To whom do I complain? And how?" Within mere minutes of looking through the complaint, I spotted connections to what I would term the origins of the "Ross Gelbspan / Ozone Action" smear of skeptic climate scientists, and later, I recognized Rado's accusation about fictional names in the Oregon Petition. But the "Lahsen 2005" source name was new to me.
Long story very short, I dug into who Ms Lahsen was, and ended up with a section in my notes file that's now around 3000 words long. Turns out she had a direct connection to Ross Gelbspan among other appearance problems.

GENERAL INFORMATION The aim of the U3A Walking Group is to enable those members who are fit and able, to get out and enjoy the Somerset Countryside. DISTANCES: Unless stated all walks average 5 to 8 miles over a variety of terrain. Leaders have discretion to vary the route. TIMES: The Walking Programme gives a meeting time at the start point of the walk. Most people go directly to the start point of the walk. If you need to clarify the route to the start of the walk please contact the walk leader. WALK CANCELLATION PROCEDURE : If the walk leader of the day decides that a walk has to be cancelled, for whatever reason, he/she should contact the Walking Group Leader by phone or by e-mail by 8:00 a.m. on the morning of the walk. The Walking Group Leader will then e-mail that information out to those on e-mail and also telephone a few key people who will, in turn, get the message out to others who do not have e-mail by 8:30 a.m. on the morning of the walk. Walkers who are planning to do the walk are strongly urged to check their e-mail after 8:30 a.m. on the morning of a walk, particularly if the weather looks doubtful. It is the responsibility of each individual walker to check that a walk is going to take place. TRANSPORT: When car sharing, passengers will be asked to contribute towards the fuel costs. Where a car park fee is required the group in the car agree the costs between them. REFRESHMENTS: All requirements should be carried, especially sufficient liquids. On some walks lunch or tea may be available and this will be indicated on the walks programme. It is advisable to carry spare food and drink. CLOTHING: Most walks cover rough country, so it is essential to wear stout footwear even in summer and to carry windproof and waterproof clothing. COSTS: In addition to the normal U3A membership fee there may be a small yearly fee that becomes due at the Walking Group Annual Meeting that is usually held in September or October of each year. FOOTPATHS: Please notify the Footpath Officer of any footpath obstructions giving a grid reference. HEALTH: Members are responsible for managing their own health problems. It is advisable to inform the Walk Leader of any issues that may arise. INSURANCE: The U3A does not provide PERSONAL ACCIDENT INSURANCE this is the responsibility of individual members. The Third Age Trust takes out Public and Products Liability Insurance on behalf of PAID-UP MEMBERS. The indemnity is extended to Group Leaders in the exercise of their role. INDISPOSITION: If a Leader is unable to lead a walk contact the Walking Group Leader or Programme Organiser asap. We hope to avoid changes or cancellations by seeking to have a joint leadership approach. TIMING AND SAFETY: In the interests of safety IT WOULD BE APPRECIATED IF ALL WALKERS STAY BEHIND THE WALK LEADER AT ALL TIMES. The Leader sets a suitable pace for the party. DO NOT try to force a faster pace. Before setting off the Leader will ask for one of the Group to act as back marker. DOGS: We regret that we cannot allow dogs on our walks. OWN RISK: All sporting and leisure activities have their inherent hazards. WALKING AND RAMBLING ARE NO EXCEPTION. Although the safety of members is always of paramount concern, accidents will occasionally occur. It is important, therefore, that when entering into the activity, each member appreciates that he or she has a responsibility to identify the hazards associated with the activity and take all reasonable steps to eliminate or minimise the potential for an accident to arise.
Note: In all cases before joining a group for the first time please telephone the group leader.


Pumpkin Recipes for lowfodmap, diabetic, vegan, lactose and gluten intolerant diets.
Pumpkins are jam-packed full of essential vitamins and minerals, just one cup of cooked pumpkin contains over 200 percent of our recommended daily vitamin A requirements. It is low in cholesterol, high in fiber, rich in potassium, vitamins C, E, Riboflavin and Folate.
The flesh, seeds and flowers of the pumpkin can all be eaten, they can be dried, baked, and even made into cloth. The traditional peoples of the Americas used pumpkin in many different ways, for food and to weave into mats before the European people arrived on their shores. At times pumpkin was considered to be animal fodder and is often grown or sold for animal feed.
I like to start by cutting my pumpkin in half then scoop out the seeds. I then bake the two halves in a large baking tray at 180 C for 1.5 hours. When the pumpkin is cooked I scoop all of the flesh away from the skin and store in an airtight contain in the fridge util I am ready to use it. This is a good base for many dishes.
Taking half of the cooked pumpkin run it through a vita-miser with half a cup of roasted ground peanuts and half a bunch of fresh cilantro, add salt and pepper to taste. This can be used as a dip on its own or as part of an entree. It's great with fresh vegetables straight from the garden and some warmed olives.
Two cups of the Pumpkin Peanut and Cilantro dip makes a delicious soup with a few small additions.
Place 2 cups of the dip into a heavy based saucepan add 2 cups of lactose free milk and one cup of coconut milk and stir through whilst warming over a low heat. Finely chop a few tops of the green tops of spring onions and serve with a spoonful of yogurt.
As part of my 'use all of my pumpkin' and make as many different dishes as possible I came up with this Pumpkin Dahl.
Sauté a few of the green tops of spring onions, bell pepper, chilli and cumin seeds in Coconut Oil.
Add a couple of chopped tomatoes, garam masala and some curry powder or paste and salt to taste, cook until soft.
Stir through 2 cups cooked pumpkin and a can of brown lentils.
Heat through and serve with rice and a yoghurt raita.
