Africa's failure to vote for Gianni Infantino has hit back
16/03/2016 by Madoda Ntuli	No Comments

Africa's failure to vote for Gianni Infantino has hit back. When the FIFA scandal broke last year minister of Sports Fikile Mbalula denied paying nay bribe to host FIFA 201 0 South Africa
"The money in question was above board and intended to support football in the African diaspora in the Caribbean" said Mbalula last year at the press conference at SAFA House.
Documents by the US attorney-general names 14 people, seven of whom have already been arrested. It also refers to another 25 co-conspirators.
Of the 14 people indicted by the US on charges of racketeering and money laundering, seven were senior Fifa officials, including two vice-presidents. The seven were arrested in Switzerland as they awaited the Fifa congress that re-elected Mr Blatter and are currently awaiting extradition to the US.
The US justice department alleges the 14 accepted bribes and kickbacks estimated at more than $150m (£97m) over a 24-year period.
There is no further indication of who the two South Africans might be, but co-conspirator number 15 is accused of having handed over thousands of dollars as far back as 2004, for deals with the Carribbean Football Union. Co-conspirator number 16 is accused of agreeing to pay then CONCACAF president Jack Warner $10-million to secure three votes for 2010.
The government eventually said it could not pay, and the money was paid out of a FIFA account.
Warner is accused of then diverting some of the bribe for his own use, rather than handing it over to two co-conspirators, one of whom has been identified as American Chuck Blazer.

American pro astrologer and author of "Essence and Applications: A View From Chiron." He has written many articles and at one time published a magazine.
Zane grew up in a row home in Philadelphia with his parents and one older sister (born in 1942, who moved away from home when he was seven.) Most of his childhood, the boy wanted to be a botanist. He went to a special high school for students who were interested in the life sciences, horticulture or agriculture, then to Pennsylvania State University in the Autumn of 1968, still with that goal in mind.
Zane discovered astrology in the early Spring 1969, and has been self-taught ever since. He changed school majors more than once after getting involved in the hard work of college science courses, then became ill and had to drop out in January 1970. Eventually, years later, he returned to college to complete his degree.
He married on 5/28/1971 and daughter Elizabeth was born 28 February 1972. His second daughter, Nathalia, was born 23 June 1980. In autumn 1984, his wife notified him that she was filing for divorce. It was final on 27 February 1986.
Zane was the victim of a mugging on 5 June 1974 in the evening, Philadelphia. Hit over the head from behind with a lead pipe, the next thing he knew he was on his way home from the hospital. He felt lucky to have damage no more serious than two teeth chipped when his face hit the ground. On 7 May 1987, late at night in Ambler, Pennsylvania, he was the victim of another mugging and this time, the perpetrator broke his nose with a rock.
Zane connected with Chiron from November 1977, when he excitedly read a story in the New York Times telling of the discovery of a "tenth Planet." Immediately, he wrote to Dr. Brian Marsden at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, who was kind enough to send an ephemeris for the new body covering several months. He contacted Al H. Morrison, who had an associate of his translate the positions into zodiacal ones, and they began to study the transits of this newly discovered body.
In 1978, Zane organized the Association for Studying Chiron (ASC) which began collecting data and information about Chiron research from astrologers the world over. This information was then printed in a newsletter, The Key (first issue 31 March 1979).
Zane made his first trip overseas on 8/26/1985, flying to England, Ireland and Scotland to give a lecture tour on Chiron, including at the AA Conference in Loughborough, England. He took a hiatus from astrology in 1986 to devote his time to his inner needs.
On 22 January 1994, he and his then-fiancé had a child stillborn due to a chromosomal defect called Triploidy.
On 3 August 1997, he began a cross-country drive to relocate to California, his first long relocation. On 29 September 1998, he returned to Ohio, and on 29 January 2000, back to the state of his birth, Pennsylvania.
His father died 26 June 1974 from a heart attack; his second major one, ten years after the first. On 30 August 1999, his mother died of cancer.
On 24 August 2011, he moved from the USA to Australia, and now live in Spearwood, Western Australia. With Lynette Malone and he started a school, Chariklo School of Archetypal Astrology, where he teaches.

Husker Softball Run-Rules SDSU
Peter Terpstra
Story Courtesy: Nebraska Athletics
Cathedral City, Calif. – The Nebraska softball team snapped a five-game losing streak in emphatic fashion, scoring in every inning during a 10-0 five-inning victory over San Diego State on Friday at the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic.
Nebraska produced 10 hits and drew 10 walks in posting its fourth run-rule victory of the season. The Huskers (5-6) saw all nine players in their batting order reach base. Junior Alicia Armstrong went 3-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and three runs scored, while senior Steph Pasquale produced a multi-hit game with a 2-for-4 effort. Sophomore MJ Knighten produced a game-high three RBIs with a three-run triple, while senior Kylee Muir and sophomore Cassie McClure each drove in a pair of runs.
Not to be overshadowed was the performance of junior right-hander Emily Lockman, who became the first pitcher this season to shut out San Diego State. In a complete-game effort, Lockman (2-3) fired a four-hitter with four strikeouts.
Nebraska jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Seven consecutive hitters reached bases, started by four straight singles from Armstrong, Pasquale, McClure and Muir. McClure's single drove in Armstrong with the game's first run, while Muir's base hit loaded the bases with one out. Knighten, a California native, then cleared the bases with a three-run triple to right field to give the Huskers a 4-0 lead. Freshman Laura Barrow followed with a walk before junior Mattie Fowler capped the five-run inning with an RBI single, Nebraska's sixth hit of the frame.
The Huskers added three more runs in the bottom of the second. Junior Kiki Stokes began the frame with a walk before Armstrong singled. A Pasquale singled loaded the bases before McClure and Muir drew back-to-back walks to give Nebraska a 7-0 advantage. With the bases loaded and one out, Barrow delivered an RBI single to stretch the lead to 8-0.
Nebraska had a chance to add more with the bases still loaded, but the Huskers grounded into an inning-ending double play for the second straight inning.
San Diego State stranded two in the top of the third before the Huskers plated a run in the bottom of the inning without recording a hit. Nebraska drew four walks in the inning, including Muir's second bases-loaded walk of the game that made the score 9-0.
Nebraska added another run in the bottom of the fourth. Barrow drew a leadoff walk and came around to score on a two-out, RBI single from Armstrong.
Lockman then worked around a one-out single to wrap up her first shutout of the season.
Eric Romero (6-5), the reigning Mountain West Pitcher of the Week, took the loss, allowing eight runs on eight hits in 1.0-plus innings for San Diego State (7-5).
The Huskers return to action on Saturday with a pair of games against top-15 opponents from the SEC. Nebraska takes on No. 14 LSU at Noon (Central) before racing No. 10 Tennessee at 2:30 p.m. (Central).

Tanzania is one of the fastest growing mobile money markets in the world. Currently transacting US$27.1 billion yearly, half of Tanzanian's GDP. A 2016 study on the state of the mobile money market in Tanzania conducted by GSMA and research data of Bank of Tanzania (BOT) shows that there are over 49.1 million registered mobile money accounts, 19 million accounts are actively used. When compared to the 50 million population of the country as of 2016, you can see how influential mobile money is in this economy.
Further research by BOT shows that there are between 1-1.5 million bank accounts in Tanzania with only 500.000 active bank accounts. The banking sector in East Africa is different compared to other markets. Looking at these statistics, it is clear to see that the number of active bank account holders in Tanzania is much smaller in comparison to the number of mobile money accounts. The huge disparity between bank account and mobile money accounts can be attributed to a less developed banking system in East Africa. The banking system was not easily accessible to the general public and lacked reliable banking services thus alienating a large part of the population leaving them with no access to the financial systems.
This void gave telecom operators such as Tigo, Vodacom and Airtel the opportunity to provide financial services through mobile money systems. This all started with M-Pesa in Kenya in 2007 and spread quickly to the rest of East-Africa. These mobile money systems give phone subscribers the ability to open a wallet attached to their phone number which acts as a mobile money account. With this mobile money account users are able to transact money with each other (peer to peer / P2P payments), purchases services, pay tax and purchase electricity tokens. The number of mobile money accounts surpassed bank accounts in Tanzania in 2013.
Banks followed suit and introduced a similar service. In addition to using debit and credit cards, banks introduced Sim Banking. Sim Banking gives banking customers the option to attach a bank account to a mobile phone number which has similar functionalities as a mobile money account. The number of Sim Banking accounts remains still small compare to mobile money accounts as a consumer needs to have bank account to use Sim Banking.
The number of customer bank transactions exist mainly out of ATM transactions, a small part accounts for merchants payments in stores.
Majority of the mobile money transactions are P2P, which cumulatively account for 70% of the mobile money transactions. People are using their mobile money account for savings, but the amounts stored are low, the majority of funds are still withdrawn from the ecosystem once they are received. The rest of the transactions circulate in the mobile money ecosystem and are used for a subset of payment purposes; small airtime top-ups (buying phone credit), infrequent bill payments and merchant payments.
Merchants payments are made from a mobile money account / bank account via a mobile money platform / banking platform to a retail or online merchant in exchange for goods or services. As shown in the table above the part that actual accounts for merchant payments is small for both bank and mobile money payments. There has been seen a slightly increase over the last six years. Based on several research studies and surveys (ClickPesa is currently doing an educational program for informal merchants: ClickPesa's Electronic Payment Facilitation Program), there is need for offering merchant payments acceptance but only when providing real value to their business. More importantly, merchants payments should serve needs such as speed of settlement, little disruption of cash flow, security and safety. In addition merchants, especially smaller merchants, are looking for electronic payment solutions that can adopt or even enhance their business processes through business records collection.
The last couple of years MNOs and banks have taken the initiative to unlock this value and increase the number of merchants payments. MNOs and banks launched smartphone applications that can be attached to a mobile money or Sim Banking account. Several marketing campaigns have been launched by MNOs over the last couple of years to stimulate merchant mobile money payments acceptance. Banks increased the number of payment terminals, also MNOs started with driving their own payment terminals: Airtel Tap Tap. Recently banks started working with initiatives such as mVisa and MasterPass, both launched in Kenya and expected to launch in Tanzania Q4 2017.
All MNOs offer a merchant account connected to a unique (6 digit) teller number. While there is interoperability between MNOs for P2P payments, there is no interoperability for merchant payments. Each MNO has its own system around this teller number. A customer can only make a payment to this teller number if it has a wallet registered under the same MNO as the merchant. To offer payment acceptance for all MNO to customers, merchants end up with three different merchant accounts. This is confusing and causes in many cases reconciliation issues for merchants.
USSD (calling into your phone) requires a 9 step process, meaning it will take at least one minute to make a mobile money or Sim Banking payment. This process is successful for P2P payments but doesn't fit into a store setting as it is time consuming. The recent launch of Vodacom's M-Pesa app is slowly changing this. There are still steps to make as the two other MNOs only allow customers to make merchant payments through USSD.
Most payment terminals in the market are bank terminals. Bank terminal only accepts bank cards such as Visa / Mastercard / UnionPay / Umoja (local card scheme). Paying with a mobile money account on these devices is not an option as the terminals only accept card payments. Customers with a mobile money account can't make a payment. A large group of merchant doesn't have a payment terminal which makes them unable to offer Visa / Mastercard to their customers having a bank card. This creates a mismatch in payment acceptances which causes frustration for both merchant and customer.
There is a large potential for merchant payments in Tanzania, merchants do have the need to accept electronic payments but struggle with offering their customers electronic payment acceptance. To fully utilize the potential of electronic payments, the payment experience should be made seamless and easy.

There was Warroad senior Brock Nelson, stickhandling at top speed, juking past one defenseman and sliding a laser-targeted pass through the crease, just out of reach of the other.
At the receiving end was none other than Nelson's longtime linemate Brett Hebel, who deposited the puck into the upper reaches of the net, all of it looking as routine and ruthless as a butcher chopping meat.
It was as much a masterpiece as it was a goal, a scene Nelson and Hebel have painted countless times on rinks throughout northern Minnesota and beyond. It was also a highlight reel Roseau players have seen replayed too many times, starting when they were no older than pee wees.
On this particular Sunday morning, however, Roseau players Kevin Erickson and Shane Omdahl were among those leading the cheers after the Warroad duo connected for yet another goal in a six-year partnership that has accounted for thousands of them.
Hebel's goal with 2 minutes, 36 seconds left in the third period helped Team Great Plains rally for a 4-4 tie with Team North in an Upper Midwest High School Elite League game at New Hope Arena.
Warroad's Hebel, Nelson and Carson Gray have forged an unlikely partnership with Erickson, Omdahl and Roseau senior Adam Knochenmus on the Great Lakes squad that, through Oct. 11, ranked second in the league with an 8-4-3 record and 19 points. Nelson, Hebel, Knochenmus, Omdahl and Erickson ranked one through five, respectively, in team scoring.
"They've done that throughout their whole life," Knochenmus said about the Nelson-to-Hebel connection, which amassed 66 goals and 139 points last season.
Knochenmus, who has played on a line with Nelson and Hebel for much of the fall, has developed an acute appreciation for Warroad players who, from November through March, are the fiercest of foes.
The Roseau-Warroad rivalry is as well-documented as it is intense. The New York Times is among the numerous publications to have made the trek to north central Minnesota in an attempt to develop an understanding as to why two towns so similar in size (Roseau has a population of 2,700; Warroad's population is 1,700) and location (they sit 19 miles apart on Highway 11) and most everything else battle each other with such unbridled passion each winter.
Indeed, there's no better rivalry in a state filled with high-octane boys hockey feuds (Hill-Murray vs. White Bear Lake, Edina vs. Minnetonka, Hibbing vs. Virginia, to name three).
As teammates this fall, that competitiveness has turned to selflessness.
"There are other teams in this league that probably have more talent," said Team Great Plains coach Scott Oliver, who guided Roseau to a Class AA state title in 2007 and will coach the Rams' junior varsity this season. "But other than maybe (Shattuck-St. Mary's) nobody has the kind of chemistry we have.
While Knochenmus admitted that Roseau games against Warroad have a tendency to get a bit chippy, Oliver said he has been surprised by some of the sportsmanship he has seen.
"The rivalry is always going to be intense," Oliver said. "In the end Roseau is trying to win a state championship in Class AA and Warroad is trying to win a state title in Class A.
Last season, Warroad beat Roseau by scores of 5-2 and 3-2. As for who has the better team this season, Knochenmus knows enough about the rivalry to not even bother trying to handicap it.
"I couldn't really tell you who is going to be better," he said. "We have both great players. It doesn't really matter on paper who has the better team.


Unusual ribbon-like hard X-ray sources were found with the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) observation of the 2B/M8.0 flare on 2005 May 13. We use this unique observation to investigate the spatial distribution of the hard X-ray intensity along the ribbons and compare it with the local magnetic energy release rate predicted by the standard magnetic reconnection model for two ribbon flares. In the early phase of the flare, the hard X-ray sources appear to be concentrated in strong field sections within the Hα ribbons, which is explicable by the model. On and after the flare maximum phase, the hard X-ray sources become spatially extended to resemble Hα ribbons in morphology, during which the spatial distribution of hard X-ray intensity lacks a correlation with that of the local magnetic energy release rate predicted by the model. We discuss the latter result as a limitation of the standard 2D model in application to a realistic 3D reconnection. More specifically we argue that the magnetic reconnection during this event may involve the magnetic field rearrangement along the magnetic arcade axis which is inevitably overlooked by the 2D model.

La Paz, the de facto capital of Bolivia, is a city I've always wanted to visit. Surrounded by mountains, between 3000 and 4,000 meters above sea level, populated mostly by colourful indigenous peoples and framed by a crazy cityscape that tumbles into a valley of skyscrapers, La Paz has always held a certain mystique.
For a few days, we got to explore. We checked out a tooth festival, rode the cable cars, visited a massive market, I got attacked by a woman with a stick, and we nearly got struck down by some Ninja.
As we are to find out, In La Paz anything can happen. It is a little bit scary, but also one of our favourite places in South America.
Below are some highlights of things you should do, and below are a few of the more interesting videos you can watch to find out more about La Paz. You can also watch the video of our trip below.
We decided the best introduction to the city was to take a walk towards the Plaza Murillo, which is located in the old town and near many of the historic government buildings.
Along the way we passed by the infamous San Pedro prison, apparently a small city within a city - where between 1500-3000 prisoners are squeezed into a facility built for 600. Families live there, and apparently, the prison has its own rules, laws and infrastructure. There was some commotion near the gates. I raised my camera to take a photograph the guards started yelling at me. It didn't seem like a good place to hang around. That said, you can apparently tour the prison, and it is subject of some books and documentaries - more info over at the BBC.
After a pretty good coffee in The Writer's Coffee - which had a kind of hipster librarian vibe (and was also a bookstore) - we ambled up to our destination of Plaza Murillo. Here kids feed the hundreds of pigeons, old people doze on park benches, and nearby there are various flamboyantly uniformed guards protecting the official buildings. The place had a lot of character and was seemingly mostly overlooked by tourists.
In the southwest corner of Plaza Murillo is the Museo Nacional de Arte, housed in an attractive old pink building. We paid the entrance fee, and just as we were settling into enjoying some of the beautiful artworks, we were told it was closing for siesta. It might have been good, had they stayed open.
We wandered down the city mall and walked over a bridge the central cultural centre - which was a labyrinth of market stalls and a good place for some fresh fruit juice. Outside there seemed to be some tooth festival, where high school students were celebrating the benefits of brushing and dentistry.
At the heart of La Paz is the Church of San Francisco, where there appeared to be an important event going on - most likely a wedding. People were dressed up, there was a band, and it seemed like everybody was there just checking it out. Due to the scrum at the door, we weren't able to get inside the church.
The next day we hopped onto the modern new cable car system, which is the longest and highest in the world. We were headed up towards the city of El Alto, stopping first at the massive central cemetery along the way.
If you do only one thing in La Paz, taking the cable car is probably it. You glide effortlessly above the orange brick jumble of the city, climbing (or descending) the steep valley walls, while surrounded by the snowy peaks surrounding the city.
The Yellow Line cable car line probably has the best views and the steepest gradient, although the Red Line is more accessible from the city, and also stops at the cemetery.
We took the Red Line up to the cemetery, disembarked, then got back on and travelled up to El Alto. After exploring the market there, we took a taxi to the Yellow Line as they are not connected.
La Paz cemetery is spread over 3km and is the largest in Bolivia. It mostly a maze of high walls which a filled with decoratively furnished tombs - photos, flowers, candles make for thousands of diorama-like crypts.
Overhead the red line cable cars glide, making for a slightly surreal and contrasting atmosphere.
There isn't a tremendous amount to see here, but it is peaceful and a beautiful place to wander around.
El Alto is one of the fastest growing cities in Latin America. Perched at the top of the valley overlooking La Paz it averages over 4000 meters above sea level. It is a sprawling new city, which is usually only visited by outsiders because the airport is here. It is poor, dusty, chaotic and congested.
But El Alto has a lot of character and an incredible market which seemed to stretch for miles in every direction. Walking around for several hours we didn't see a single other foreigner or tourist. The place had an air of adventure, mystery and danger - an area with witchcraft shops, magic and other secret goings-on.
At one stage I a fabric stallholder attacked me with a stick because she thought I was taking a photo. At the time I didn't even have my camera out, although I did have a GoPro attached to my bag. I was standing there minding my own business when she started poking a long thick wooden stick through the clothes at me, jabbing and lunging at me. At first, I didn't register, but once I did, we decided to move on from that shopping experience. An unusual sort of customer service, but a result of a belief that having your photo taken might steal your soul.
Generally, in El Alto and up at this market, it didn't seem appropriate to be flashing around expensive equipment, so the DSLR camera stayed in the backpack.
Later we wandered into one of the famous architect Freddy Mamani's garish and colourful "New Andean" buildings. We were interested in them as they looked a bit like psychedelic space-age gingerbread houses. Apparently, he was trying to break out of the more traditional brick buildings of El Alto, and they were kind of incongruous in the otherwise dowdy city surroundings.
However, once we got inside what seemed like an empty shopping mall, we were followed by a someone dressed like some scary looking Ninja, armed with a weapon, a pistol and covered head to toe in black, including a motorcycle helmet. I guess it was security. As we were the only people in the building, they were keeping a close eye.
Finally, after getting lost in the market, we took a taxi to the Lellow line" cable car. On the descent, to La Paz, we enjoyed the best views we had had so far of the city.
A good informative video is Getting a Taste of Bolivia - One Day in La Paz, Highest Capital in the World by Kathrin Hilde's Project Made . This video elaborates on some of the superstitions of the people here, why the women dress as they do, the national flag and the cable car system.
A somewhat bouncy video that covers similar terrain is La Paz, Bolivia Travel Guide: Things to see & do! By CupofTJ. This self-described quirky vlog also breezes through Cholita wrestling, which seems to be a bit of a tourist attraction and the Witches market. A good summary.


What a great sea of mischief in which you have marooned yourself as you seek answers and directions for what you have set out to navigate. Like all mariners, you have two lives, the life at sea, which is the life of writing, reading, and teaching; and the life on land, where you are governed by commonplace traditions and cultures.
Navigating the life on land, you have committed yourself to doing your best to represent things as you see them, indexing such things against the voices and received wisdom of your culture. To the extent it is possible for you to do so, you seek to be a reliable narrator, holding yourself to accounts in which you index your responses and behavior against those of men and women you have met in person or through things they have written and from distillations of things written about them.
You never, for example, met Rachel Carson, although after reading her work, Silent Sprint, you recognized her as someone you considered a reliable and conscientious narrator, one you could (and do) hope to emulate in accuracy and methodology.
You never met Anita Hill except to see her performing under the most extraordinary and emotion-laden attacks possible, which she endured as long as it was possible for her to do so in her hopes of serving the kind of elective mindset and agenda you felt some sympathy toward. She, too, represented to you not only reliability of life-on-land reliability, she also spoke to you of dignity and forbearance.
You never met Joan Didion in person, but because you've read so much of her published work, you feel an indelible respect and esteem. She appears to you to do things with sentences and paragraphs that transcend reliability; she breathes close personal observation with a yearning to understand phenomena both on land and at sea.
You've never met Mark Twain in person, but you have trod some of the streets where he walked, sat at some of the places where he sat, observing, drinking with the boys, and worked for the same paper for whom he was a contributor. You've read much if not all his voluminous output, argued with yourself and him about much of it, and come to conclude that as you set forth to find your own narrative voice, you were going to keep his in mind because he had the kind of effect you wished, neither reliable nor unreliable, neither identifiably outraged nor suitably humble.
Every minute of the day, the Mississippi River comes crashing down past New Orleans, transporting silt,sand, and unarticulated flotsam, changing the shoreline by measurable degree. Over the years, you've thought long and hard about the similarity of the effects the Mississippi has on the shoreline to the effects of Twain's voice on the shorelines of our language, our culture, and our behavior.
When you navigate the life on this sea of mischief and storytelling, your approach differs from your land-lubber life. You invent, distort, argue ad hominem, and do your best to assign plausible roles to the large ensemble cast of persona lurking about within your psyche.
You espouse causes you do not believe in on shore, look askance at persons of your actual politics, cause individuals who espouse similar causes as you to do unreliable, irrational things in service of their goals and their psychological impairments. You bend and distort facts, waterboard characters, and say hateful things to individuals you might on land address to their exact opposite numbers.
On land, you more often than not describe. When you are on sea, you lie your way into a tangible, believable reality of your own invention. When you are on land, you render judgments about some persons, places, and things. When you are a sea, you cause individuals you've created to believe in the opposite vectors of your landlubber visions.
There are times when your emotional sensors warn you of depression moving in, much like the marine layers that sometimes land on the brightness and sharp, flattering light that defines much of the life in this amazing Central Coast city where you live. At length, you realize the cause of this depression--you are spending too much time with characters who are not at all like you but who are, nevertheless, characters for whom you must supply dignity, empathy, and self-esteem.
When you are faced with the chore you have set yourself--bringing dimension and esteem to characters whose presence may at times offend you--the fog of depression becomes a temporary luxury you cannot afford. There have been and undoubtedly still are aspects of you who are not by any means your favorites.
But in a bigger sense, every writing day is the equivalent of Thanksgiving. These persona are invited to the table. They pass the cranberry sauce and the yams and the turkey. You send along the gravy boat and the greens and whatever other dishes they may request. Live with it.

His parents Ludwika and Seweryn Malewicz were ethnic Poles who had fled to Ukraine in the aftermath of the January Uprising of 1863 and he was baptised in the Roman Catholic Church. Malevich responded that art can advance and develop for art's sake alone saying that "art does not need us and it never did".
He was a pioneer of geometric abstract art and the originator of the avant-garde Suprematist movement.

Hollywood Legend Tony Curtis Dead at 85
LAS VEGAS -- Tony Curtis, the Bronx tailor's son who became a 1950s movie heartthrob and then a respected actor with such films as "Sweet Smell of Success," "The Defiant Ones" and "Some Like It Hot," has died. He was 85.
The actor died at 9:25 p.m. MDT Wednesday at his Las Vegas area home of a cardiac arrest, Clark County Coroner Mike Murphy said Thursday.
After a series of frivolous movies that exploited his handsome physique and appealing personality, Curtis moved to more substantial roles, starting in 1957 in the harrowing show business tale "Sweet Smell of Success."
In 1958, "The Defiant Ones" brought him an Academy Award nomination as best actor for his portrayal of a white racist escaped convict handcuffed to a black escapee, Sidney Poitier. The following year, he donned women's clothing and sparred with Marilyn Monroe in one of the most acclaimed film comedies ever, Billy Wilder's "Some Like It Hot."
His first wife was actress Janet Leigh of "Psycho" fame; actress Jamie Leigh Curtis is their daughter.
In later years, he returned to film and television as a character actor after battling drug and alcohol abuse. His brash optimism returned, and he allowed his once-shiny black hair to turn silver. He also became a painter whose canvasses sold for as much as $20,000.
"I'm not ready to settle down like an elderly Jewish gentleman, sitting on a bench and leaning on a cane," he said at 60. "I've got a helluva lot of living to do."
Curtis perfected his craft in forgettable films such as "Francis," "I Was a Shoplifter," "No Room for the Groom" and "Son of Ali Baba."
He first attracted critical notice as Sidney Falco, the press agent seeking favor with a sadistic columnist, played by Burt Lancaster, in the 1957 classic "Sweet Smell of Success."
In her book "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang," Pauline Kael wrote that in the film, "Curtis grew up into an actor and gave the best performance of his career."
Other prestigious films followed: Stanley Kubrick's "Spartacus," "Captain Newman, M.D.," "The Vikings," "Kings Go Forth," "Operation Petticoat" and "Some Like It Hot." He also found time to do a voice acting gig as his prehistoric lookalike, Stony Curtis, in an episode of "The Flintstones."
"The Defiant Ones" remained his only Oscar-nominated role.
"I think it has nothing to do with good performances or bad performances," he told The Washington Post in 2002. "After the number of movies I made where I thought there should be some acknowledgment, there was nothing from the Academy."
"My happiness and privilege is that my audience around the world is supportive of me, so I don't need the Academy."
In 2000, an American Film Institute survey of the funniest films in history ranked "Some Like It Hot" at No. 1. Curtis -- famously imitating Cary Grant's accent -- and Jack Lemmon play jazz musicians who dress up as women to escape retribution after witnessing a gangland massacre.
Monroe was their co-star, and he and Lemmon were repeatedly kept waiting as Monroe lingered in her dressing room out of fear and insecurity. Curtis fumed over her unprofessionalism. When someone remarked that it must be thrilling to kiss Monroe in the film's love scenes, the actor snapped, "It's like kissing Hitler." In later years, his opinion of Monroe softened, and in interviews he praised her unique talent.
In 2002, Curtis toured in "Some Like It Hot" -- a revised and retitled version of the 1972 Broadway musical "Sugar," which was based on the film. In the touring show, the actor graduated to the role of Osgood Fielding III, the part played in the movie by Joe E. Brown.
After his star faded in the late 1960s, Curtis shifted to lesser roles. With jobs harder to find, he fell into drug and alcohol addiction.
"From 22 to about 37, I was lucky," Curtis told Interview magazine in the 1980s, "but by the middle '60s, I wasn't getting the kind of parts I wanted, and it kind of soured me. ... But I had to go through the drug inundation before I was able to come to grips with it and realize that it had nothing to do with me, that people weren't picking on me."
He recovered in the early '80s after a 30-day treatment at the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage.
"Mine was a textbook case," he said in a 1985 interview. "My life had become unmanageable because of booze and dope. Work became a strain and a struggle. Because I didn't want to face the challenge, I simply made myself unavailable."
One role during that era of struggle did bring him an Emmy nomination: his portrayal of David O. Selznick in the TV movie "The Scarlett O'Hara War," in 1980.
His health remained vigorous, though he did get heart bypass surgery in 1994.
Curtis took a fatherly pride in daughter Jamie Leigh's success. They were estranged for a long period, then reconciled. "I understand him better now," she said, "perhaps not as a father but as a man."
He also had five other children. Daughters Kelly, also with Leigh, and Allegra, with second wife Christine Kaufmann, also became actresses. His other wives were Leslie Allen, Lisa Deutsch and Jill VandenBerg, whom he married in 1998.
He had married Janet Leigh in 1951, when they were both rising young stars; they divorced in 1963.
"Tony and I had a wonderful time together; it was an exciting, glamorous period in Hollywood," Leigh, who died in 2004, once said. "A lot of great things happened, most of all, two beautiful children."
Curtis was born Bernard Schwartz in the Bronx in 1925, the son of Hungarian Jews who had emigrated to the United States after World War I. His father, Manny Schwartz, had yearned to be an actor, but work was hard to find with his heavy accent. He settled for tailoring jobs, moving the family repeatedly as he sought work.
"I was always the new kid on the block, so I got beat up by the other kids," Curtis recalled in 1959. "I had to figure a way to avoid getting my nose broken. So I became the crazy new kid on the block."
His sidewalk histrionics helped avoid beatings and led to acting in plays at a settlement house. He also grew to love movies. "My whole culture as a boy was movies," he said. "For 11 cents, you could sit in the front row of a theater for 10 hours, which I did constantly."
After serving in the Pacific during World War II and being wounded at Guam, he returned to New York and studied acting under the G.I. Bill. He appeared in summer stock theater and on the Borscht Circuit in the Catskills. Then an agent lined up an audition with a Universal-International talent scout. In 1948, at 23, he signed a seven-year contract with the studio, starting at $100 a week.
Bernie Schwartz sounded too Jewish for a movie actor, so the studio gave him a new name: Anthony Curtis, taken from his favorite novel, "Anthony Adverse," and the Anglicized name of a favorite uncle. After his eighth film, he became Tony Curtis.
The studio helped smooth the rough edges off the ambitious young actor. The last to go was his street-tinged Bronx accent. His diction became a Hollywood joke, as when he uttered to Piper Laurie in a medieval potboiler "The Prince Who Was a Thief": "Yonder lies the castle of my fodder."
Curtis pursued another career as an artist, creating Matisse-like still lifes with astonishing speed. "I'm a recovering alcoholic," he said in 1990 as he concluded a painting in 40 minutes in the garden of the Bel-Air Hotel. "Painting has given me such a great pleasure in life, helped me to recover."
He also turned to writing, producing a 1977 novel, "Kid Cody and Julie Sparrow." In 1993, he wrote "Tony Curtis: The Autobiography."


Seajacks UK has presented a safety case in accordance with the Safety Case Regulations 2005 to the UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE) Energy Devision for its new self propelled jack up vessel Seajacks Hydra.
The principles and precautions explained within the case have been formally accepted by the HSE allowing Seajacks Hydra to engage in UKCS oil and gas operations.
Authorised operations explained within the case include well services activities allowing gas to be introduced onto the main deck of the vessel via a well test package.
This is a significant achievement as it means all Seajacks vessels are able to compete for either oil and gas operations or offshore renewables.

Some of the cost-cutting suggested in the Trump administration budget released on Thursday includes the elimination of federal subsidies for small airline flights from Billings to five rural communities in Eastern Montana. The cuts would target the 39-year-old Essential Air Service, which subsidizes Cape Air flights from Billings to Glasgow, Glendive, Havre, Wolf Point and Sidney.
Without the federally-subsidized program, Cape Air would probably not be able to afford to continue operating the service, which peaked during the Bakken boom. The program has bipartisan support from Montana U.S. Senator Steve Daines and Senator Jon Tester. In 2016, over 37,000 passengers boarded subsidized Cape Air flights in Montana, down 15 percent from the previous year, according to the Montana Department of Transportation. The cost of the flights is about $100 round trip, and would likely be more than $500 without the subsidy.

"Ekklesia: The Background of Caesarea Philippi"
The site at which Jesus commissioned His ekklesia, announced the dismantling of the doors of death, and empowered His called out with the authority to manage His kingdom was Caesarea Philippi. In choosing that particular location, Jesus selected a spot that visually spoke and reinforced His words. Against the backdrop of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus' proclamation carried both historical references and prophetic promises.
Caesarea Philippi was located 120 miles from Jerusalem and about 20 miles from the Sea of Galilee. Built at the base of Mount Hermon, the area was replete with significance buildings and natural marvels. Although it was the northernmost boarder or the end to which Jesus traveled during His ministry, it was the upper source or the beginning for the Jordan River. Waters that bubbled up from a deep cavern overflowed and began their journey down to the Sea of Galilee provided a source of life and commerce for the entire region.
The city itself had borne several names throughout history. Although not all historians agree, Baal-Hermon (Jud.3:31; I Chron.5:23) appears to be the same location and an early name of the city that was so called because of the Canaanite sanctuary for the god Baal. Later the area was renamed Panium or Paneas by the Greeks of the Macedonian Kingdom in referenced to the sanctuary or grotto dedicated to the Greek god Pan. During the days of the Roman occupation, Herod built a temple dedicated to Augustus Caesar, which was later enlarged and aggrandized by Herod Philip for Tiberius Caesar. The name of Caesarea Philippi was used to acknowledge both Tiberius and Philip. Today the area is known by the name Banias and is a famous tourist attraction.
The area was well known for its religious significance. Although the history of the territory probably was a site for Baal worship, at the time Jesus stood at that location, two other worship systems were being practiced. One was the worship of the Caesars. The idea of men becoming gods did not originate in Rome. Pharaohs afforded themselves god-status. Greek mythology turned men into gods. Many ancient cultures practiced some form of human deification. The grand temples that adorned the rock cliff at the base of Mt. Hermon invited worshippers to come and worship men who claimed to have transformed into gods.
Even before the Caesar temples were constructed, the Greeks dedicated the area to Pan worship. Pan, whose name comes from the Greek paein meaning to pasture or to eat, was depicted as a man with hindquarters, legs, and horns of a goat and is often seen with a reed pipe called a Syrinx. He was not worshipped in temples but rather in caves or grottos and was accredited with providing fruitfulness to the fields, groves and woods. He was also associated sexual promiscuity, non-monogamous relationships with nymphs, and the sexual arousal of his worshippers. Caesarea Philippi was infamous for the worship of Pan.
Visitors to the area today will find the following signs identifying the temple and altar of Pan: The Grotto of the god Pan, The court of Pan and the Nymphs, The Temple of Pan and the Dancing Goats. One sign carries the following message: "The cave is a nucleus beside which the sacred sanctuary was build. This abode of the shepherd god pagan cult began as early as the 3rd century BCE. Ritual sacrifices were cast into a natural abyss reaching underground waters at the back of the cave. If victims disappeared in the water, this was a sign that the god had accepted the offering. If, however, signs of blood appeared in the nearby springs, the sacrifice had been rejected." The area was dedicated to the worship of other gods and to blood sacrifice. It testified of pagan religion and pagan practices.
This historic and cultural backdrop provided the stage upon which Jesus told His story and communicated His narrative. He started by inquiring, "who do men say that I the son of man am?" Peter's answer revealed that Jesus was the Christ or the anointed promised Messiah and that He was the son of God. Certainly, that declaration can stand on its own and flows out of the promises given throughout the pages of their Old Testament Cannon. However, given the backdrop, the revelation of Jesus set him apart from all others who were being offered worship at Caesarea Philippi. He was not a man who turned into a god. He was and is the eternal God. He was, and is, and always shall be. He was not claiming a position that was not true. He wasn't the figment of men's imagination like Pan nor the pride of men's heart like Caesars. He is the only true and living God. Peter's statement was released as a stark contrast to the testimony of the temples of Caesarea Philippi.
More on Caesarea Philippi will follow in next week's article.

When I start an accordion book piece I usually gather several pieces of paper with drawings or collages that I have lying around in the studio and start gluing them together, letting chance dictate how the story develops.
After the pages are glued and the long strip is laid out I start looking for associations and intuitively begin filling in the gaps with more drawings, collage and color.
Many of the techniques from other classes will come into play here, drawing, collage, draw-through monotype and painting as well as poetry or word pieces.
Think of it as a puzzle with no wrong solution.
Bring 10 to 15 more or less random pieces of art on paper (drawing, painting, collage), begin assembling the pages or mark their sequence, and work on a unifying subtext by adding color, drawings, collage, photo transfer or monotype draw-through. This will begin to set a tone for your book.
Other materials: bring extra paper, ephemera or imagery useful for collage work, paint, brushes, ink, pens, glue, scissors etc.
Beginning in October we ask for a $5 contribution towards the heating cost.
Please contact us HERE to sign up or if you have questions.
Larry, this class looks perfectly marvelous! Your work has so much depth and speaks to many different parts of me, most especially my instinctual, wild self. I am so enamored with what pours out of you.

We were so tired last night, but when a certain nine year old boy, walked into our room for the third time complaining about unidentifiable thumps and bumps after we had already taken some time to listen to his concerns, listen to the noises and explain the basic workings of the air conditioner compressor outside his window, I looked at him and noticed the dark marks of exhaustion circling his grey-green eyes, the eyelids that were red and droopy and thought I felt my mommy senses tingle.
He was jumpy, he was scared, he was obsessing about a non-issue when what was pressing on his heart was the real issue. He had tried to lock it away in that false-bottomless pit, but the springboard must have had a hair trigger so here he was, "wired" and wounded.
What do yo do when you look at your child and the mirror image you see makes you want to weep, roar, scream in rage at the cruelty of nature, or the unfairness of nurturing? What do you do when you can look into his weary eyes and see what is behind your own muddy brown reflected back at you? What do you do when he is confused and scared and you desperately want to kiss it away and banish those feelings and thoughts from his mind so that he knows peace again instead of worry, fear, panic, distress and obsession?
You breathe... deeply. You hold him on your lap even if most of his lanky frame spills over. You rock him and stroke his hair as his body trembles and quakes ever so slightly in an all too familiar erratic cadence. You remember how it felt not too long ago, when the tears were coursing down your own face and the obsessive thoughts were plaguing your brain. You knew there was something wrong and your mind was racing to find something to take the blame. Your heart was pounding and your brain was trying to keep pace. The knot in your stomach was obviously tied by an experienced sailor on a long leave and trying to catch your breath was like trying to catch a dandelion seed in a hurricane. You felt like the winds and rain were lashing about you and every last means of protection had been ripped away. No umbrella, no rain coat, not even a tree to hide behind. You felt exposed and helpless and frighteningly weak.
You remember standing there in that holy place with the people you loved most in the world next to you even though you were drained physically and emotionally and the last thing you wanted to do was be still. You fight the urge to bolt for the sake of these precious souls surrounding you. You look up to the altar and see the One who can cure all, make the blind see, the lame walk, the deaf hear and you beg Him to FIX IT!!!
And then you hear ever so softly, but very clearly, a familiar whisper in your heart... It is going to be alright. It will be... okay. You wish that the words were more eloquent, but they were what they were. Simple, soft, loving. There was no instant cure or release from the anxieties. That would take time and you are pretty sure it isn't going to be easy. The day might get darker and the tempest might surge higher before you can even hope to look for the blue skies again. You thank God for that life vest that keeps your head above water even though your body is too tired to tread any more. When every ounce of strength is gone, you remember the whisper and you keep slogging on.
Now it is your turn to offer those words to this worried, weary boy. You can say them with a certainty that you really believe. You don't have to force them. They are not just words of distracting dialogue. You talk about the real hurt, how it scared him, how he felt as though all of his "control" was taken away and something painful and terrifying was inflicted upon him even though it was for the benefit of his body. You see the mark it left on his soul. That wound must be cared for and he must learn to put up his umbrella now during these gentle sun showers. You must be the one to teach him.
I went to bed with a heavy heart but a quiet calm that knew it was going to be alright. I have always prayed that God would help me be the mother He needed me to be for them. Is it possible that my storms were an answer to that prayer? How else would this mother know so intimately the pangs of her son's heart? For that, I must be grateful. As hard as it is to say "thank you"... I do so. It was worth it if only for this moment, right here.
"I looked at him and noticed the dark marks of exhaustion circling his grey-green eyes, the eyelids that were red and droopy..."
Such are the signs we need to notice. Poor little fella! It takes real strength, Matilda, to overcome our annoyance and fatigue when we are wakened repeatedly. It is one thing to comfort a child when we "feel" like it; quite another to overcome ourselves to do so.
"He was obsessing about a non-issue when what was pressing on his heart was the real issue." That, too, is a gift for a mother to discern. Not every mother tries, you know. God bless you for working your way--nay, praying your way--through the stress of this moment with him.
Praying for your little professor!


TRUPOTAN SGL is a special acidic tanning agent which may be used in different process steps.
TRUPOTAN SGL can be used in the production of shrunken grain leather with an extremely fine and even grain pattern across the complete hide surface.
TRUPOTAN SGL improves the buffing properties which results in a fine and short nap.
TRUPOTAN SGL can support the fixation of fatliquors, re-tanning agents and dyestuffs.
TRUPOTAN SGL acts as a strong dispersing agent to vegetable tanning agents and can be therefore used in the pre-tan of a vegetable tanning.
TRUPOTAN SGL improves fullness, and if used in the right process step can also improve fineness and grain tightness.
TRUPOTAN SGL has bleaching properties and is suitable for the re-tanning of white and pastel dyed leathers.
TRUPOTAN SGL should be applied into a short float after bating or de-pickling the pelts.
The pH of the pelt should be adjusted to approx. 7.0 - 8.0 to obtain optimum effects.
The shrunken grain pattern to be achieved depends upon several factors: opening up, quantity to be applied, thickness of pelt and water content of pelt.
A good opening up results in a more even shrunken grain.
Generally 8 - 15 % TRUPOTAN SGL, based on pelt weight, should be offered. Higher quantities will lead to a more pronounced effect. Thin pelts will tend to produce a less pronounced shrinkage effect. Low water contents will lead to finer and more pronounced even grain patterns.
In a vegetable re-tanning process 2 – 5 % TRUPOTAN SGL is applied 30 minutes before adding the vegetable tanning agent to disperse better the vegetable tannins.
An addition of 2 – 5 % TRUPOTAN SGL will improve the fixation of fatliquors and dyestuffs. The quantity of formic acid can be reduced.
Depending on the raw material a finer and tighter grain with improved fullness can be produced when 4 - 8 % TRUPOTAN SGL is applied prior, or during the neutralisation process.
When handling TRUPOTAN SGL, normal safety precautions associated with the handling of chemicals should be observed. For more specific details please refer to our safety data sheets.
40 °C can be avoided. On prolonged storage or extremes of temperature TRUPOTAN SGL may exhibit some settlement which can be rectified by either warming and/or stirring the product thoroughly before use.
