'Selfie' try celebration a one-off: Ennis
Martin Gabor
Sun 26 Jun 2016, 07:06 AM
Michael Ennis has brought back memories of some of the great post-try celebrations with his version of the 'Selfie' during the first half of Cronulla's gripping 19-18 golden-point win over the Warriors on Saturday night.
Trailing 10-0, Ennis dummied to his support on the right before doing a 360 to spin his way past the over-eager defence to score next to the posts.
Instead of high-fiving his teammates in the huddle, Ennis picked up the Steeden, ran over to the fans and took an imaginary photograph using the ball as the camera.
The popular Sharks hooker said he and his daughter Koby-Fox had been planning something funny for his next try and thought Saturday night's match would be the perfect time to put it on show.
"I don't get too many so I've got to enjoy them," Ennis told NRL.com after the game on Saturday night.
"I normally get the fall over tries from one or two metres out and everyone piles on. I said if I ever get a clean run to the line, I'll come up with something. It was a bit average, but it was enjoyable."
Ennis credited former Dragons, Eels and Roosters hooker Mark Riddell for inspiration after the charismatic dummy-half celebrated a try for the Red V in 2002 by leaping over a fence at WIN Stadium and enjoying his effort with a few hearty souls in the crowd.
Post-try celebrations were hugely popular in the 1990s and early 2000s but have been scant in recent years; possibly after Bryan Fletcher's infamous grenade in State of Origin 16 years ago.
Nathan Blacklock had his flips, Jarryd Hayne the 'Plane' and Greg Inglis the 'Goanna', but don't expect the 'Selfie' to become a regular thing.
"I always enjoyed seeing other guys doing it when they were more popular many years ago," Ennis continued.
"I remember Mark Riddell doing something similar many years ago and I enjoyed it, so I thought I'd come up with something original.
"That's me done, though. I think I've had my fun."
Sharks captain Paul Gallen could barely keep a straight face when talking about the incident in the post-match media conference, confirming he wouldn't be taking any post-try celebration advice from Ennis in the near future.
"I couldn't believe he did that because he's the most reserved bloke I've ever met in my life," Gallen said.
"He's flat out swearing and he did that when we were down so I couldn't believe it."
Despite his captain's jibe, Ennis said he has no regrets for what he did, especially because it brought a smile to thousands of faces at Southern Cross Group Stadium.
"The game's too serious sometimes so you need to have a bit of fun when you can," he said.
"When you get close to 14,000 people here in six degree weather, why not have a bit of fun with them? They've been awesome to me since I've come here."

Ahh, November. Welcome ye in.
It's a funny old month, a betwixt of sorts. Caught between the gorgeous autumnalness (it's a word!) of October and the glittery crazy of December.
Depending which calendar * you follow, we are only at the half way point in the season. The cold, arse-end of Autumn is only just starting and has not yet bit, despite the many proclamations of "Winter's here" as soon as the mercury fell into single digits after sundown.
Samhain has come and gone, bringing with it the New Year of the old Celtic/Pagan Wheel of the Year and the reign of the Cailleach; the Queen of Winter.
This half of the season is all about bedding down and coorying in. The trees have almost completely shed their leaves, and in following nature's cycle, November is about turning inwards and settling in, getting our Hygge on. This month is hygge embodied. It's the full embrace of Autumn and the knowing that winter is coming and we take to lighting the fire, if we are so lucky as to have one…radiators aren't quite the same…I dream of the day I have a fire and hearth again…any way I digress…home and hearth is where it's at. And candles! Lots and lots of candles.
For the majority of the month we are also in the Celtic Tree month of Reed (Ngetal). The importance of Reed was in its uses be that as fuel for the fire or as used in materials for the home – rush mats on the floor or thatching for the roof or as musical instruments. It creates a very haunting sound as a wind instrument – very spooky at this time.
The chill in the air increases as the darkness deepens and the days shorten. A perfect time to let go of what does not serve you any longer, and a time of awakening to what does, as well as taking this time for introspection and finding order. This month focus on loving your home and those you welcome in here.
November is full of feminine energy, which tied in beautifully with the first Circle Of The Wild Sister Rising sacred women's circle I hosted on the 1st November. Our theme was healing the sisterhood wound which was perfectly timed for November as Topaz is the jewel/ birth stone of the month whose corresponding meaning is the stone of true friendship . How timely. I love synchronicity.
Hestia – Greek Goddess, ruler of hearth and home who sacrificed her place as an Olympian to guard the fire and maintain a happy home.
Cailleach – the Celtic Old Hag or Crone, essentially the Winter Goddess who comes out to play and preside over Winter until she dies at Imbolc when the maiden aspect of the triple goddess takes over.
So, as I mentioned at the top of the post, November is a betwixt month, but that doesn't mean it's bland or boring. Once both Samhain and our wedding anniversary (2nd Nov) have passed, it's fair game round ours for Yule & Christmas preparations; getting the lists made and starting the planning of the next 6 or 7 weeks. My Christmas Cake is baked and sitting all wrapped in the cupboard awaiting its next brandy injection before it gets its marzipan and icing coat.
C/out op : That you all organised for Christmas then?
C/out op : Ah, you like me and leaving it all to the last minute?
And with that in mind, I'm going to enjoy the rest of the month, winding down, embrace the chilled air (especially if there is also a fire), and coory in before the festive season kicks in and covers everything in glitter. How about you?

Q: Should I use present or past tense? Should I use 'was' or 'is' in the following paragraph?

"My sister saw a blue dress at the mall yesterday. She loved it very much. But the dress was too expensive for her. It was one hundred dollars. She didn't have enough money for it."

A: You should use past tense in your given context.
In your text, you are recounting an experience which occurred in the past, so you should use the past tense.
On the other hand, if you are having a casual conversation at the mall with your friend, you can say "This dress is very expensive, it is over 100 dollars". In this context, present tense would be the preferred tense.

Roger Stone indicted: Trump adviser arrested in Mueller investigation.
Roger Stone was indicted as part of the special counsel investigation.
Looks like it's Roger Stone's time in the barrel. The president's old friend and longtime political adviser was indicted in the special counsel probe late Thursday on seven counts, including one count of obstruction of an official proceeding, five counts of false statements, and one count of witness tampering, according to the special counsel's office. He was arrested Friday morning.
The longtime political provocateur and self-named "dirty trickster," who cut his teeth working for Richard Nixon and served as a political adviser to Donald Trump, has long been of interest to the special counsel regarding his connection to the Russian hack of Hillary Clinton's campaign in 2016, and the publication by WikiLeaks of tens of thousands of stolen documents.
Throughout that summer, Stone engaged in a sort of social media performance art, wherein he bragged on Twitter about knowing in advance that damaging information from the campaign was coming and that he had perhaps played a role as conduit. He claimed at the time that he was in contact with the group's founder, Julian Assange. He changed his story multiple times, as investigators questioned those around him, saying he spoke to them through an intermediary. Last year, it emerged he'd been in contact with Guccifer 2.0, an account operated by Russian military officers who coordinated the hack. Stone started to claim in recent months that he would be indicted as part of a witch hunt, and also that he would never turn on the president.
The indictment alleges that the 12 Russians engaged in a sustained effort to hack Democrats and aides to Clinton during the 2016 presidential campaign. It also alleges that "during the summer of 2016, STONE spoke to senior Trump Campaign officials about Wikileaks and information it might have had that would be damaging to the Clinton Campaign. STONE was contacted by senior Trump Campaign officials to inquire about future releases by Wikileaks."* The indictment also claims that Stone made multiple false statements about his interactions regarding WikiLeaks, falsely denied possessing records that contained evidence of these interactions, and attempted to persuade a witness to provide false testimony to and withhold pertinent information from the investigations.
Mueller and his team of prosecutors have now indicted 33 individuals and three Russian businesses on charges ranging from computer hacking to false statements to conspiracy and financial crimes. It is believed the investigation is entering its final stages.
The special counsel's office said Stone will make an initial appearance at 11 a.m. before U.S. Magistrate Judge Lurana S. Snow at the federal courthouse in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. An attorney for Stone told Politico that he expected his client would be released after the appearance and return the next week to plead not guilty.
Update, Jan. 25, 2019 at 9:10 a.m.: This post has been updated with information from Stone's lawyer and statements by Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
Correction, Jan. 25, 2019: This post originally misquoted the special counsel indictment as making the claim that Roger Stone spoke to Trump campaign officials about Wikipedia and information it may have had about the Hillary Clinton campaign. The indictment actually states he spoke to Trump campaign officials about WikiLeaks.

What We Learned from London Fashion Week Men's
From summer suede to botanical prints, here's what you can take away.
By Shane C. Kurup
Fashion, by its very nature, is a cyclical beast. And twice a year, the international menswear literati flit between the world's style capitals to sit in glaringly bright rooms reverberating with unnervingly loud music to watch square-jawed models saunter down the runway. This is, of course, all in the name of Fashion Week. London kicks off this biannual style fiesta with a four-day showcase, which seems quite appropriate, seeing as the British capital is often cited as the world's oldest menswear hub.
At Esquire, we know you're just as keen as we are to find out what's in store for our future wardrobes, so here are our key takeaways and trends from the SS18 London shows—although don't blame us if this article considerably lengthens your sartorial wish list.
Timeless Style Lives on in London
Founded in 1893, Dunhill is one of the most quintessentially British brands and proved that London is the home to an aesthetic that transcends seasonal shifts in taste, with its stellar offering of plush city tailoring, relaxed yet refined casual separates and luxurious summer suedes. "London has a sartorial heritage steeped in tradition – it displays a refined elegance which the British are famed for the world over", says Dunhill's newly appointed Creative Director, Mark Weston - and we would be inclined to agree.
In business since 1865, New & Lingwood also proved its worth at the St. James's runway show, with a beautifully cut olive safari jacket and a louche English silk paisley dressing gown—a must for any aspiring rake. "Much of what we see in collections around the world has its origins in the craft of fine British tailoring, shirt making, and shoemaking," says Simon Maloney, the brand's Product and Marketing Director.
With such emphasis on heritage, London could risk being stuck in its ways, but contemporary tailor Richard James turns this notion on its head. The SS18 offering, entitled "Atlantic," took its cues from the bold work of U.S. artist Ellsworth Kelly and highlights the brand's inventive use of fresh, summery hues and premium cloths.
"We're a tailoring business, but we've always had a very modern attitude. We respect the heritage and traditions of Savile Row, but we have a more contemporary vision with our use of fabric and color," says the brand's Creative Director, Toby Lamb. Our favorite piece? We think this pistachio-green double-breasted jacket is right on the money.
Kent & Curwen, which has style icon David Beckham on board as a creative partner, put on a display of team spirit for its SS18 collection. Creative Director Daniel Kearns took inspiration from a range of archive sporting attire, including 1920s cricket apparel, Olympic uniforms from the 1948 austerity games, and the vintage college blazers of Oxford and Cambridge athletic teams. The resulting collection was a preppy, sporty, hybrid mix of English panache and casual elegance, which proved to be a winning formula.
Individualism—With a Very British Twist
Air travel today is an obstacle course of endless security checks and harassment that makes you wish you'd stayed at home. Luckily, for SS18, Harrys of London has devised a way to make the experience slightly less agonizing by developing a line of footwear that won't trigger scanners at the airport—the idea being that you won't have the inconvenience of removing your shoes.
"We make really beautiful designs, but at the bottom of everything is our innovation and unique technology. We aim to be one step ahead all of the time," says Harrys of London CEO Steven Newey. The "Made to Fly" collection features an extensive range of Italian-made loafers, sleek monk straps, and eye-catching printed sneakers, alongside a slick range of leather luggage.
Rising menswear star Nicholas Daley's latest line, "Madras," is a testament to the melting pot of London's cosmopolitan society and draws on the designer's fascination with multiculturalism. "Britain has had such a broad cultural exchange, which is why it's always been a bit more forward thinking, due to this dialogue of different communities–that's what I love referencing in my work," says Daley.
An amalgam of Indian and Scottish elements, the collection was inspired by extensive research sessions spent poring over 150-year-old Madras cloths at a world-famous fashion archive in London. The resulting line of bold tartans, hand-made crochet accessories, and jodhpur trousers offers something with a distinctly exotic air.
Fashion Gets Political
They say that fashion is a barometer for the political climate, and there was a raft of shows that drew on the current feeling of looming uncertainty, including Liam Hodges, E. Tautz, and most notably, BODYBOUND. Entitled "We Shall Not Wilt," the collection focused on the flower as a symbol of rebellion in a strong statement against war and strife. References to junta violence and civil unrest were juxtaposed against a delicate daisy-chain barbed-wire motif, intricate floral embroidery, and peace signs, which on the centenary of the First World War had a strong resonance.
The original enfant terrible of fashion, Dame Vivienne Westwood is, at 71, still taking her distinctly alternative approach to design in an industry that can be rather too serious at times. Her latest collection, entitled "We Are Motherfucker," is a two-fingered salute to greed, propaganda, war, and the oppression of the establishment.
Set against a backdrop of performing acrobats, the show featured the veteran designer's trademark idiosyncratic cuts and complex fabric treatments. A suit featuring an overblown Madras check caught our eye, along with Dame Vivienne herself, who rode down the catwalk on the shoulders of a male acrobat.
It's no longer geeky to be an anorak-clad rambler, says Martine Rose. Or maybe it is—but now it's also cool. Either way, we're pretty taken with the designer's collection that referenced sporty, outdoorsy types, which appropriately was shown in a climbing center in north London.
Also referencing the spirit of the great outdoors was Christopher Raeburn, who remains the undisputed master of military cool. His assortment of oversized parkas, field jackets, and ultra-modern sportswear was inspired by The Long Walk, which details the experiences of Slavomir Rawicz; a Polish Army lieutenant who trekked 4,000 miles from Siberia to British India during World War II after escaping from a Russian internment camp. Incarceration and conflict aside, what man doesn't need a bit of camo in his life?
Loosen Up
After years of squeezing into skinny jeans, designers have been trying to push us toward a more capacious cut down below, and for SS18, wide-leg trousers and shorts appeared in nearly every London collection; this is sure to be welcome news if you don't have the twiggy legs of a pre-pubescent youth. Just remember that balancing the volume is key to a well-executed look–you don't want to like you're wearing your older brother's hand-me-downs. Take your style cues from E.Tautz, Alex Mullins, John Lawrence Sullivan, and Lou Dalton.
Suede for Summer
It might seem rather questionable to suggest wearing suede at the time of year when the weather is supposed to get warmer, but if you inhabit the western hemisphere, there's no guarantee that spring is going to be a sizzler. And designers have cottoned on to this–a myriad of buttery soft suede jackets were shown in summer-appropriate dusty hues, with Dunhill, Oliver Spencer, and Richard James showcasing some of the strongest styles.
Botanical prints featuring foliage, florals, and an array of creatures from the natural world were a running theme across many collections, including Katie Eary, Astrid Anderson, Alex Mullins, Christopher Raeburn, Edward Crutchley, Alex Mullins, and BODYBOUND—all of which showed that men can in fact pull off flora and fauna prints with aplomb.

Kurt and Rachel had breakfast at Tiffany's then broke into the Gershwin theater so they could sing on the Wicked stage, prompting question number three: This was allowed? The security guard just let these kids wander in and sing? Apparently, and thank goodness for it. This was one of my favorite moments of the night. "For Good" was stunning and a touching friendship moment between Rachel and Kurt. This moment, of course, made Rachel realize her true love was performing. It took the kiss she shared with Finn after New Directions's penultimate cheeseball, group number or, as I like to call it, "The Kiss Heard Round Nationals", to make her realize she could love Finn and singing simultaneously. Oh, so pretty much the same crap she's been exploring since day one? Thanks for letting this character develop, writers.


Lakewood Congressman urges U.S. Secretary of State to help locate Aaron Soffer, who went missing in Israel's Jerusalem Forest; Rachel Fraenkel, the mother of kidnapped and murdered teen, reportedly meets Soffer family.
Why don't Israelis know that Aaron Soffer is missing?
The family of a yeshiva student from New Jersey who went missing in the Jerusalem Forest has offered a $28,000 reward for his return.
Aaron Soffer, 23, of Lakewood, was last seen at noon Friday when he and a friend began climbing down a steep incline on a hiking trail. The friend called police several hours later and reported Soffer missing.
Soffer's parents, Chulda and Moshe, on Tuesday released a video on social media begging for information leading to his return and offering the reward of 100,000 shekels, or about $28,000.
"I want to thank everyone for all the help, but I ask you, please, please, please I beg of you, beg you, please, if anyone sees any whereabouts of Aaron, please call the police immediately," Chulda Soffer says, sobbing, on the video.
"The police are working tirelessly on all fronts, and all options are being strongly investigated. We would like to thank the American Consulate, the office of the Consul General, the FBI and the Israeli police and ZAKA for all their efforts in trying to find our dear son Aaron," Moshe Soffer said.
Prayer vigils have been held in Lakewood since the disappearance.
On Tuesday evening, Rachel Fraenkel, mother of Naftali Fraenkel, one of three Israeli teens kidnapped and murdered in June, met with the Soffer family, Kikar Shabbat reported.
Smith, a member of the House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee, sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry Monday urging that the State Department take every action to help in the effort to locate Soffer.

Semiotics Speech Language Race Gender Literary Theory Modernism Identity Dialog Jean Rhys
Dialogic Conflict and Speech Identity in Jean Rhys' Let Them Call it Jazz
By Grace E. Afsari-Mamagani
Early in the story, Selina informs Mr. Sims, "'I don't think so much of money. It don't like me and what do I care?'"20 Though her comment is lighthearted, Selina places herself outside the modern language of consumer capitalism. Sims chastises her for naïveté, insisting that she will end up a "caricature" of herself. In a new modern order that permits social mobility, Selina's conceptualization of wealth and money constitute an unconventional voice.
Though she holds firmly to her patois through the story, Selina does recognize the value of hybridization, itself a modernist trope. After her release from prison, she addresses a woman at the train station with the formality of a well-educated Englishwoman: "'Yes, I am quite well. But I can't stand the heat.' She says she can't stand it either, and we talk about the weather till the train come in… I know what to say and everything go like a clock works."21 She overcomes the desire to express herself genuinely, engaging instead in "small talk" about the weather. The dialogized interrelation of languages occurs for her at the personal level as old and new identities come into conflict.
She has decoded the narrative system of her new community, familiar enough with "what to say" that she can operate within two distinct speech genres. As she begins to assimilate further into society, "I lie and tell them I work in very expensive New York shop. I speak bold and smooth faced, and they never check up on me."22 Her narration remains in the same dialect, but she begins to adopt the lies that were previously reserved for those with "quiet voices." The confidence that has always characterized the prosody of her words is geared now at deception; the "abominable language" she uses early in the story gives way to nicety and the concession that she must sometimes be "sans honte" (without honor). She is, like jazz, a fusion.23
As an author, Jean Rhys assumes the same duality. The daughter of a Welsh father and white Creole mother, she could not insert herself into the black community in Dominica, resulting in a "mental condition of double alienation."24 Like Selina and her other heroines, Rhys embodies the notion of the divided self, with multiple parts in dialogue with one another and that together define a totality or ideologeme (Kristeva).
Occupying the space between languages, Rhys is able to utilize and comment upon two sets of verbal processes, creating the "dialogization" through which language norms because "relativized, deprivileged, aware of competing definitions for the same thing."25 The result is a communalist literature that itself acts as a modernist stew of identities and produces a black-white hybridization of narrative voice.26
Additionally, her voice is distinctly feminine, separate from an essentially masculine semiotic code. Her gendered "otherness" becomes important, too, for her characters: Selina describes herself first in relation to her father, "a white man," disclosing her identity via negation. "I have his name," she tells the reader, reminding us of the masculinity of signification (surnames are paternal), only to immediately sabotage this construction by labeling her father a liar ("So perhaps I have not even his real name").27 Rhys takes on the role of the prose artist in a modernist condition, "elevat[ing] the social heteroglossia surrounding objects into an image … shot through with dialogized overtones."28
She writes representations of both Creole patois and standard English mindsets, which interact within and without herself. As a result, language codes become less absolute and more fluid; where Selina and her neighbors fail to understand one another, Rhys succeeds, entrenched in both systems of understanding but equipped also with critical perspective. It is from her worldview that the interplay of dialects in the story extends, and from her characters' collective utterances that the totality becomes a "historical and social text."29
Ultimately, Selina's hypothesis that "I don't think it's at all like those books tell you" serves also as a warning for the reader. Rhys draws our attention to the indeterminacy of linguistic systems, unearthing conflict between different speech genres and between "word" and "utterance." The authority of the "symbolic" buckles under the weight of intonation and cultural relevancy. Selina's distinct narrative vernacular – characterized by lapses in grammar and the unwillingness "to translate Creole words like 'fout' and 'doudou'" – emphasizes her "otherness" within her new system, as well as our "otherness" in relation to her.30
The story places not only characters in dialogue with one another (and themselves), but itself in dialogue with its society and the author in dialogue with the reader. In the modern context of narrative self-consciousness and linguistic complexity, "the very notion of identity is bound up with … the stories we tell ourselves and the stories others tell of us or tell us into," resulting in a series of signifying systems that, though sometimes taxonomical, offer insight into the entire spectrum of human idiosyncrasies.31

2.) According to Bakhtin, speech genres mark spheres in which language constructions develop stable types, creating communities with a collective (but idiosyncratic) understanding of signifier-signified sets.
3.) Utterance suggests a complete unit of speech, both words/signifiers being utilized and mannerism; words become utterance when they are spoken, or acted, and this sense cannot be distilled into writing, but only represented.

23.) This modern cultural hybridization is manifested in modern literature in the multiplicity of possible interpretations, and in the complexity of broad concepts. As Graham Allen states, "If a novelist, for example, uses the words 'natural' or 'artificial' or 'God' or 'justice' they cannot help but incorporate into their novel society's conflict over the meaning of these words" (36). The lies or exaggerations told by the characters in Let Them Call It Jazz function as proxies for greater hegemonic lies upon which systems of race and class relations are constructed.

Ethiopia is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. From the dramatic Simien Mountains to Lake Tana, the source of the Blue Nile, it constantly challenges your preconceptions of it. It also offers one of the richest material cultures on the continent, from ancient stelae and the Ark of the Covenant to rock-hewn churches and medieval castles. It is a unique and fascinating destination.
You'll find a short guide to Ethiopia's main attractions below, along with some sample journeys and guide prices. Please do ask us for advice and a quote if you are interested in visiting Ethiopia.
This private guided tour covers all the main historic highlights of Ethiopia, a fascinating destination.
Believed by the Ethiopian Church to be the final resting place of the Ark of the Covenant, it was the capital of the Aksumite Empire from 400BC to 1000AD and is famous for its stelae or obelisks which are 1,700 years old.
The Bale Mountain National Park is a beautiful rugged area perfect for walking and can be added to a classic Northern Circuit tour of Ethiopia.
Known as the Camelot of Africa it was once the capital of Ethiopia and an important centre during the 16th century. It is home to a series of impressive medieval castles, royal palaces and ancient artefacts.
The islands of this beautiful lake are home to small monasteries which can be visited by boat. Lake Tana is also the source of the Blue Nile, which officially starts as the waters leave the lake over the Blue Nile Falls.
Home to ancient monolithic churches hewn out of solid rock and then decorated elaborately. Set down within the rock itself, often below ground level, the mind boggles as to just how these unique places of worship were actually created in the 13th century.
The Simien Mountains are the most rugged and dramatic mountains in Africa. Offering some of the finest scenery in the world their high plateaus, dramatic cliffs, jagged pinnacle peaks and deep gorges will take your breath away.
Ethiopia has a warm but wet climate year round with some variation due to the topography. With much of the country at 2,000 metres above sea level the highlands are pleasant for most of the year. The short rainy season arrives in early spring followed by a heavier rainy season June – September.
The dry winter months are sunny and warm. Average day time temperatures are around 20-25 degrees although it is cooler at night.
Our holidays in Ethiopia use private 4x4 vehicles and guides, allowing us to plan your trips according to your specific interests and requirements. This is particularly important as there is such a variety of options, from boat rides and trekking to cultural tours. We also include short internal flights for certain journeys as the terrain in the north of the country is rough and the roads can be bumpy. This saves a lot of time.
The Simien Mountains National Park is home to some beautiful mountains which offer some of the finest scenery in Africa. With their dramatic cliffs and epic peaks all around the views will truly take your breath away. The peaks form the northern part of the Great Rift Valley range that runs all the way down the eastern side of Africa.. It is so beautiful and of such natural significance that it has been given protected status with an UNESCO World Heritage award. It is also home to the incredibly rare Ethiopian Wolf.
Lalibela is one of the most famous places to visit in Ethiopia. It is home to ancient monolithic churches hewn out of solid rock and decorated elaborately. Set down within the rock itself, often below ground level, the mind boggles as to just how these unique places of worship were actually created in the 13th century. Like Aksum it is one of Ethiopia most holy cities and is said to have been created to mirror Jerusalem.
Aksum/Axu is the believed by the Ethiopian Christian Church to be the final resting place of the Ark of the Covenant. It is also another of Ethiopia's UNESCO World Heritage Sites due to the importance of its historical sites. It was the capital of the region from 400BC to 1000AD and is famous for its stelae or obelisks which are 1700 years old. The Tississat Falls are the source of the Blue Nile.
Gondar was once the former capital of Ethiopia and is an important historical centre. It is home to a series of truly amazing medieval castles and ancient artefacts with a great historical museum where you can learn in depth about Ethiopia's fascinating history. Omo Valley is home to various Ethiopian tribes, some living the same hunter-gatherer and pastoralist lifestyles as they have for millennium. Its possible to visit these trips, although visits should be restricted so as not to impinge on their lives.
Our director Robert led the first group tour to Ethiopia after the end of the Ethiopia-Eritrea war in the early 1990's. Even then, despite the raw scars, it was a country he fell in love with and is still one of his favourite countries in the World. Its people, its landscapes, its amazing attractions make it unique.
We ate eggs and potato for two weeks, all the churches were infested with fleas and the roads so badly damaged we had to fly everywhere is a small 18 seater plane. We landed on mud strips, in a field once and when landing on the tarmac strips had to dodge bomb craters. Despite it all, the people were so lovely, the sites so breath-taking and the scenery so spectacular, we all had an unforgettable trip."
Ethiopia is still a poor country but tourism is an essential part of the economy that is beginning to improve slowly and steadily. As a tourist destination Ethiopia is famous for its ancient temples, castles and ruined churches as well as the beautiful landscapes of the Ethiopian Highlands. There is an abundance of wildlife for safaris as well as trekking and adventure holidays. The landscape varies massively across Ethiopia. Although many of us remember pictures of the desert from the terrible droughts that have afflicted this country, surprisingly most of the country is actually green and lush hill country at over 2000 metres above sea level and well watered by the rivers coming down from the volcanic highlands.
The lack of tourists and the stunning landscapes make this a perfect destination for a safari with a difference. There are over 200 species of mammals and over 800 species of birds making this a nature lovers paradise. The landscape is incredibly diverse with the high mountain ranges, lush forests, typical African savannahs, enormous lakes, rivers and deserts and this means there is a huge variety of wildlife on offer. The rare Ethiopian Wolf is one of the animals that most visitors are keen to see but be warned – they are rare and elusive!

Harry Frankfurt on The Daily Show
by Brian on February 21, 2005
Karen Bennett (Philosophy, Princeton) reports that Harry Frankfurt is scheduled to be on _The Daily Show_, presumably promoting his book "On Bullshit":http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0691122946/ref=nosim/caoineorg-20. The date is now set to be March 14, though that doesn't seem to be absolutely certain. Non-philosophers should feel free to be less overjoyed with excitement at a philosopher getting this much attention, but I think it's rather fun, and that episode won't end up being one of the _Daily Shows_ that I miss – or fastforward through the interview.
UPDATE: Scott McLemee has a nice review of "On Bullshit":http://insidehighered.com/index.php/mla/views/intellectual_affairs__4, together with a discussion of Gerry Cohen's reply, at Inside Higher Ed.
Atkins and Pollard

Chris Brooke provides some anecdotal evidence that the Atkins diet may not be all it is cracked up to be. Pollard is not much thinner than before the diet and looks… well, considerably less cheerful. Or maybe, as Chris hints in a comment, this testimony followed his incredibly disappointing evening at a local restaraunt.
Kelo v New London
by Belle Waring on February 21, 2005
The Supreme Court will soon hear a case which could decide the limits of the power of eminent domain. The question in the case is whether the government of New London, CT can seize homeowners' property and give it to private developers in a bid to "revitalize" the town. (Link to AP story).
Fort Trumbull is not besieged by blight, poverty or crime and New London is not building a highway or government building, and the residents' appeal asks if "public use" allows governments to seize unblighted taxpayer property solely to encourage private development.
…New London officials say the taxes generated by redeveloping Fort Trumbull ultimately will benefit the public, and the state Supreme Court ruled that was enough to justify the condemnation.
That line of reasoning seems incredibly weak, and the potential for abuse, enormous. The Connecticut Supremes also relied on a rather dubious (and notorious) precedent:
The state Supreme Court majority in Kelo relied heavily on a 1981 Michigan Supreme Court ruling – Poletown Neighborhood Council vs. City of Detroit – which it cited as a "landmark" eminent domain case. But several months after the Connecticut Supreme Court issued its ruling in Kelo, the Michigan Supreme Court reversed its Poletown ruling. (Link to Hartford Courant article)
The Reason Foundation is assisting the plaintiffs. I think it's obvious the Supreme Court should reverse the state Supreme Court, but I'm curious to see how the justices decide. Am I rooting for Scalia on this? Does anyone know how the justices are predicted to vote? (I seem to remember Eugene Volokh had a betting pool for Supreme Court decisions…)

Can you "fail" a (transfer) medical test?

I have heard it said by several members of this site that you cannot "fail" a medical.
I'm never quite sure whether this is just a linguistic thing, or a substantive matter.
Anyhow, it obviously has relevance to the Benrahama/WHU saga, but Said isn't the only Bee who's had to face this during his career.
Wolves' Ivan Toney deal failed on a medical
Wolves pulled out of a £500,000 deal to sign Northampton Town striker Ivan Toney because he failed a medical.
[The club] confirmed the Toney transfer fell through, after an undisclosed problem showed up with the 18-year-old striker.
Wolves declined to go into details on the exact nature of the problem but confirmed everything was agreed on the deal.
Head coach Kenny Jackett said: "There's a number of things, but it didn't come off. The exact nature of it has to stay confidential, but the interest isn't there now.
"We wish the player all the best and we move on. I wouldn't say the door is completely closed but he won't be coming in this time."
Incidentally, had Ivan signed, on time, he would have been available to play for Wolves in their next game. Against Brentford.
Meanwhile, here is a photograph of Ivan aged 18, in Northampton colours:

When you buy a car, you look it over, you check it's service history, MOT history. All of this informs your purchasing decision.
If you spot something wrong that is absolutely critical, then you might choose to walk away or adjust the terms on which you are willing to negotiate. This could be deemed a 'failure' but in reality, there are no set criteria aside from your own.
Its the same with player transfers. Some players get signed without medicals. Some clubs walk away at the last minute or adjust deals due to irregularities with medicals.

Is it some insurance requirement? I mean there's nothing to say you can't sign a player with a 'failed' medical, or even without one at all. You wouldn't be able to get him insured though, I guess.
Andy Feeley comes to mind. Signed after a trial, and lasted a couple of seasons. Even Wiki states he was never fully fit with us...

You cannot fail one. The medical team highlights any discrepancies in any party of the player that could cause issues now or later on. It's then up to the buying Club to discuss the issues and new terms or pull out of the deal.

BFC1997 said:
... there are no set criteria aside from your own.
But surely it's a basic criterion that a player should be fit, strong and healthy enough to play 30+ games a season?
Whether there be a specific issue which may prevent it, or more generally the player not possessing the overall robustness and injury record to go the distance.
In the end, WHU wanted to sign Said B, but didn't following an issue with his medical. Everyone expects it will be cleared up, so it can be made permanent, but how else do you explain it being converted to a loan etc, had he not "failed" WHU's medical test?
If nothing else, he certainly can't be said to have passed it.
In the shed.
It's a test. Can you fail a test ? Probably not these days as it would be upset the candidate. You have to say unfortunately you don't meet our criteria.

Not necessarily, I don't believe anyone bought wood gate expecting that, they probably got him on the cheap hoping they might get 15-20 if they were lucky.
The easiest way to get your head round this if you are struggling is.
Ask yourself what would constitute a pass and who decides what that criteria is. Does the govt issue a set of standards like they do with a car MOT?
Player must have 20/20 eyesight, must have two perfect knees, feet must be the same size, resting heart rate must be under 48 etc etc.
If the player passes you can buy him, if he doesn't then I suppose he has to retire.
What actually happens is the car has 4 good tyres, a good engine but the break discs are 50% gone. Can you take the risk or do you say to the seller, I want it but its a bit knackered and will cost us some money soon so we offer you 70% of your asking price. Alternatively it's a piece of sh*t that won't last 2 days we don't want it so we are pulling out.

The important thing is, @Ealing Bee, that it's not a standardised yes/no pass/fail thing, but it's more like a 0-100 scale, and you set the line where you want.
If you see a Brentford moment that you want to make into a GIF, let me know!
Very, very seldomly incorrect
It's called a "Medical", not a "Medical Test". If it was a test then there might be a pass/fail, but it's not you see. There's no word "test". So a medical is not a test. It's a medical.
I hope that explains it.

Bloke we employed failed the drug and test before he started so yes you can fail medical testing. Admittedly I thought the new regimes decision to drug and alcohol test all new employees seems rather over the top when most current employees would fail a drug and alcohol test

Radamael Falcao was recalled by Monaco whilst on loan at Chelsea and failed the medical at his parent club. He also failed one at Atletico Madrid too.
The one I remember was Asa Hartford.
About to join Leeds from WBA ,in 1971,and during his medical the doctors discovered a hole in the heart.
Transfer was off as Leeds ran a mile from him.
A medical will also ascertain wether a bad injury could recur or not.
I can imagine that Scott Hogan's medical would concentrate around his knees and wether or not he can survive the contract or not.
The fact that Benrahma failed his medical at a club that passed Jack Wilshire and Andy Carroll means lack of funds or they have properly tightened up and some.
Can they fail the medical?
Many have.
Many will.
All part of the gamble of the transfer market.

Q: How to change context path of where beans are found I'm receiving this error when starting my app :

java.io.FileNotFoundException: Could not open ServletContext resource
  [/WEB-INF/spring/servlet/servlet-context.xml]

I don't know why Spring is searching for servlet-context.xml . All of my contexts are configured in web-inf/context/portlet
Is there a setting I can add to web.xml so tomcat can resolve the contexts from a different dir to /WEB-INF/spring/servlet/servlet-context.xml ? Or is another way of fixing this issue ?

A: Usually you set the location of the context in your WEB-INF/web.xml file, see here:
 http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.1.x/spring-framework-reference/htmlsingle/spring-framework-reference.html#web-integration-common
So your WEB-INF/web.xml file should look something like, check carefully that the contextConfigLocation value points to your context configuration files:
<context-param>
  <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
  <param-value>/WEB-INF/context/portlet/*.xml</param-value>

Free one of the two suspects to kill the mutilated Lithuanian from Cartagena
Three days after discovering the body of the tortured man
You are here: Home / Items / Free one of the two suspects to kill the mutilated Lithuanian from Cartagena
We present some of the cases of lawyer Roberto Sánchez from official sources. Tell the judge who was driving the deceased's car because he was paid to take him to Lithuania | The other involved, imprisoned in France for drug trafficking, says that some unknown people went to steal marijuana.
The Court of Instruction Number 1 of Cartagena has agreed this week to release provisionally on bail of two thousand euros a neighbour of Torrevieja (Alicante) imprisoned at the beginning of March for his alleged involvement in the crime of a Lithuanian citizen whose body tortured and mutilated appeared on February 6 on the porch of a house in Los Castillejos, in Cartagena.
In addition to the man released this week (a man of the same nationality as the victim, who has been assisted by the Spanish lawyer Roberto Sánchez Martínez), in France remains imprisoned others allegedly involved in the macabre crime, a citizen of Lithuania who rented the house where the corpse appeared beaten and with several mutilated fingers of the hand.
The latter blames the crime on some unknown and has stated that they went to the home to steal marijuana. The Civil Guard continues investigating the homicide in search of more involved, but what they seem to be clear is that the death is related to an adjustment of account for drug trafficking. In the house in Cartagena where the body was found, the Civil Guard found an indoor 'marijuana plantation that had already been collected. The victim of the crime is a citizen of Lithuania with a criminal record in Romania for illegal possession of weapons.
Three days after discovering the body of the tortured man, the neighbour of Torrevieja was arrested on the border with France when he was travelling in a rental car at the Barajas airport for the victim of the crime. In another car inspected at the same time on the border, the person who had rented the house in Cartagena was travelling and in his vehicle, they located more than seven kilograms of marijuana.
The Civil Guard was notified of both arrests from the border post and while the neighbour of Torrevieja was released the other driver was imprisoned for drug trafficking. Subsequently, the Lithuanian resident in the municipality was arrested in the Vega Baja (Alicante) at the beginning of March and the judge of Cartagena agreed to his entry into prison for the crimes of homicide and drug trafficking.
Before being released, this researcher, who had no prior background to this case, testified in the court of Cartagena and explained that he has a workshop in Torrevieja and offered to take a car to Lithuania in exchange for 800 euros, as explained to This newspaper sources close to the investigation.
The car turned out to be of the murdered man, whom he claims not to know. He also indicated that on the day that the car was taken to Lithuania, another man appeared with a second vehicle that was the tenant of the house in Cartagena. They explained that they should travel together because the other person was carrying false documents and had to go as a shuttle to warn them of any police control. This researcher has not identified the person who claims that he took the deceased's car.
The released man denies any connection with the crime, while the tenant who is imprisoned in France has declared that he was only the guard of the marijuana plantation that was in the house of Cartagena and that the owner of the said crop is another Lithuanian citizen who is in prison in Lithuania since last December 31 for other events.
According to the version of the incarcerated in France, the victim of the crime would be a person sent from Lithuania by the owner of the plantation and was killed by several people who went to the house in Cartagena with the intention of stealing the marijuana and money.

2021-02-10T17:57:36+05:30 Allahabad HC Monitoring CBI Probe Of Hathras Rape Case: Centre
Published: 10 Feb 2021, Updated: 10 Feb 2021 6:45 pm
The central government on Wednesday informed Parliament that the Allahabad High Court is monitoring the CBI probe of the rape-and-murder of a Dalit teenager in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh as ordered by the Supreme Court.
In a written reply to a question in the upper house, Union Minister of State for Home G Kishan Reddy said the Supreme Court had observed that since the UP police were divested of the probe and the central agency is carrying out the investigation, there would be no room for apprehensions at this stage.
He said the investigation into the case has been transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on the recommendation of the state government through a gazette notification of October 10, 2020.
Hathras Victim Was Gang Raped, Murdered By Accused: CBI Chargesheet
Reddy said according to the available information, the Supreme Court, in its order on October 27, 2020, had observed that the petitioners had prayed that the Union of India and the authorities concerned be ordered to conduct a fair probe and if the need arises, by transferring the case to the CBI, or a special investigation team (SIT) be formed to investigate the matter and that it was also prayed that a sitting or retired Supreme Court or high court judge be appointed to look into the matter.
He added that the Supreme Court observed that it would be appropriate for the high court to proceed to monitor the probe in the manner in which it would desire and that the CBI shall report to the high court in the manner as would be directed by the high court through its orders from time to time.
"Further, they also expressed the view that it would be appropriate for the investigating agency to complete the investigation and in any event since the local police have been divested of the investigation and the CBI is carrying out the investigation, there would be no room for apprehensions at this stage," he said.
The 19-year-old woman was allegedly raped and seriously injured by four men at Hathras in September last year and she died at a Delhi hospital two weeks later.

The Galaxy Book 12 is Samsung's latest effort to create a tablet that can work as a full-fledged laptop. Yes, that's Surface's territory. The Windows 10 tablet packs a 12" Super AMOLED display, Intel's latest processors, and a detachable keyboard cover with stylus (that are part of the price). It starts at $1,130 for the Wi-Fi-only version. Reviewers are giving it positive scores for the hardware quality, but competitors do just as well, or as CNET put it so elegantly "a great Windows tablet that just scratches the Surface."

« Technological support for AMS (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer)
Line Topics Small Bodies of the Solar System »
Study cosmic rays to look for dark matter and antimatter
The mission is the liability of Roscosmos, the launch date was on June 15, 2006 and the mission ended in December 2009.
The space mission PAMELA, part of the RIM (Russian-English-Missions) is currently the most advanced observatory for the study of cosmic rays. The results of the mission are the liability of Roscosmos, the launch date was on June 15, 2006 and the mission ended in December 2009.
Source: ASI
PAMELA instrument was installed onboard the satellite RESURS DK1 of TsSKB-Progress (Russia) and entered June 15, 2006 on an orbit at a height between 350 and 600 km by a Soyuz launcher class. The PAMELA satellite-borne experiment was launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome and it is collecting data since July 2006. The instrumental apparatus PAMELA is composed of a permanent magnet, a tracking system consists of 6 floors silicon microstrip, a trigger system and measuring the time of flight plans consisting of three double and segmented scintillation counters, a calorimeter image consists of 22 planes of tungsten and 44 planes of silicon, a system of scintillation counters for anticoincidence, a neutron detector realized with 36 3He detectors placed on two levels, a scintillation counter for triggering particles high energy.
The primary scientific objective of the mission PAMELA is the search for evidence of exotic matter, that of non-baryonic matter, which is not expected in the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, and the search for antinuclei.
Other important scientific purposes are to study the dependence of the average life of cosmic rays in our Galaxy, the study of transport models and secondary production of cosmic radiation in the Galaxy, the monitoring of solar activity over a long period.
Are measured energy spectra of antiprotons, positrons, protons and electrons up to several hundred GeV and the nuclear and isotopic components of cosmic rays, especially with regard to the recognition of antinuclei.
Having provided the instrument PAMELA for installation on the satellite, the activities' main course are related to the control of the mission for the part about the experiment itself, receiving data from the satellite Pamela Resusr DK1, data analysis and communication and dissemination of results.
Some of the international agreements are presented in the following. It is the program agreement specifically between ASI and INFN, inserted within the Framework Convention. The experiment is conducted by an International Collaboration, led and composed by the INFN of Bari, Florence, Naples, Tor Vergata and Trieste, by the National Laboratories of Frascati, Institutes Russians MEPhI and FIAN Lebedev of Moscow and Ioffe of St. Petersburg, the University of Siegen in Germany and the Royal Technical Institute in Stockholm.
The mission is carried out in the framework of an agreement-contract between INFN and Roscosmos for the integration of the payload on the satellite Resurs DK1, the launch and the downlink of 10 Gigabytes of data per day.
There is also a collaboration agreement for Pamela between INFN and the RAS, which provides an international committee mixed INFN-RAS to follow the mission Pamela.

Kart Republic – We are republic, we are one.
We have never thought our new branded chassis as simple racing products. We saw it as a valuable integration for the ability of the racers.
We designed it as we desired. It will be a symbol for the new kart republic of future racers.
Kart Republic was born from a long process of technological implementation. One of our first priorities is to be able to ensure the highest innovation and modernity, for drivers safety and performances. The process leading to the creation of a Kart Republic chassis is divided into several stages; the study of proper scientific applications, the best most innovative software for technical and mechanical design, the quality control, the test on track and racing, all to ensure winning performance. This promise is maintained thanks to the skill of our engineers and thanks to the advanced equipment at their disposal.
Our evolution does not follow the market, but it is part of it, our target is to become a reference point for all the drivers.
KR-2017 is a revolution, an experience that shapes the steel into a complex and hi-tech idea. We don't create simple molds, with which we fill warehouses. Our aim is to draw on paper breathtaking lines, able to make the kart alive into the deepest of its structure.
We choose to design quality products, for the same reason why we use only quality materials: the freedom to take risks, our freedom to race, the freedom to choose, always, because we love, and always love to race.
Our design has a great wisdom, dictated by the study of the physical and mechanical dynamics, a deep use of modern technologies, and craft manship, where every piece is a work of art. For this reason, Kart Republic is not only a product, but the soul that creates a unique chassis.
Our main characteristic is to know the abilities and skills necessary to select and mold the materials, in the interest and respect of those who make Kart an incomparable passion. Kart Republic is an idea that conveys a sense of belonging, a constant that is perpetuated thanks to the tenacity and hard work of those who possess not only a decade of experience on the competitions, but also a peculiar and perfectionist mentality.
Kart Republic is a concept, an institution, a brand that perfectly combines incredible artisan skills and advanced manufacturing technologies. Karting is not just a sport, but a living world in which burning passion, heroism and perseverance dominate just like those who build the souls of our karts.
I still remember that morning at 7:30 am where we talked for the first time about this wonderful adventure. I remember the happy faces of everyone around me. We had very little doubts about this exciting new venture of what we were about to embark.
Today, after so many days, I cannot but help think back about all of the people and their commitment, to the thousands of miles we traveled in and out of the track, to the worn out shoes trying to chase solutions, the mistakes and the innovative strategies we came up with. We changed, overturned, redesigned everything we had available. We assembled and reassembled the same components hundreds of times until we found the perfect balance of forces to dominate the power and the speed. We kept our champions under pressure, we asked them to give their best by reminding them that there is no end to their skills and that together with their energy and our equipment they would be unstoppable.
Today, the day after, we can say that we've always had the right vision and we made sure we showed it at the most important race of our lives (CIK-FIA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP).
It wasn't only our extraordinary drivers, or the outstanding tires, or the magnificent engines, and we can also admit that it wasn't just the incomparable chassis that made us win: we won as Kart Republic, as a collective group and as a family.
Lorenzo, Victor, Dino, Nico and the Paddock guys, everyone gave their all, and today, which is the day after the party, we can say that we are here and that we are never going to give up, whatever the next challenge is, the next difficulty or the next obstacle may be.
We are here, ready to better ourselves and ready for the next challenge.
We are Republic, We are One.

(Reuters) - A U.S. national security review has raised concerns about a takeover by China's COSCO Shipping Holdings Co (601919.SS) of a large container terminal in Long Beach, California, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday.
The terminal is part of COSCO's planned $6.3 billion deal to buy shipping firm Orient Overseas International Ltd (OOIL) (0316.HK), the Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
COSCO executives met with officials at the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) this week and proposed to divest or carve out the Long Beach terminal to ease U.S. concerns about the deal, the report said.
A spokesperson for the Treasury Department, which oversees CFIUS reviews, did not immediately reply to Reuters' request for comment.
The planned acquisition of Orient Overseas Container Line, OOIL's main subsidiary, is on track to be completed by the end of June, COSCO Vice Chairman Huang Xiaowen said earlier this month.
