1997 saw Wigan battle many off the field problems with debts building up and the board proposing to sell Central Park. They wanted to build a new stadium in Wigan and whilst doing so move the club temporarily out of town to Bolton's Reebok Stadium in Horwich. The proposed move proved very unpopular with fans (scroll down the page for more on this).
1997 also saw the end of season Premiership Trophy being contested for the last time and the World Club Challenge was restructured to include 22 clubs from the Australasian and European Super League competitions. European sides won just 8 of 60 group stage matches, Wigan winning two of them. The whole tournament was a huge flop with it reportedly losing over $5,000,000.

At the end of the year, after relegation, Oldham Bears folded. Then the RFL decided not to readmit Paris St Germain. Carlisle Border Raiders and Barrow Braves merged. Blackpool Gladiators (non-league) and Prescott Panthers folded.
Oldham Bears folded and Paris St Germain were ejected.
Hull and Huddersfield Giants were promoted to take their place.
Hull and Huddersfield Giants were promoted to the Super League.
Widnes Vikings and Workington Town were demoted to the second division.
Hunslet Hawks, Rochdale Hornets, and Leigh Centurions were promoted to take their places.
Wigan's former invincibility was dented in 1996 having lost both the title and Challenge Cup. They entered the 1997 Super League II season hoping to reclaim it, but in truth the invincibility was ground to dust as off the field problems were to beset the club. This is a long story.
Wigan's finances had plummeted and with debts of £3 million it was decided Central Park was to be sold. Local Businessman Dave Whelan, owner of Wigan Athletic Football Club, wanted to buy Central Park and have Latics share the ground with the Warriors. He offered £4.5m for the ground and pledged to spend a further £12.5m to turn it into a 20,000 all seater stadium for both clubs. Shareholders had voted for the idea but the Wigan board had another offer to consider from the Tesco Supermarket chain, which was rumoured to be closer to £10 million. If the Tesco offer was accepted, Wigan would be homeless. The idea was that Wigan would share with Bolton Wanderers new Reebok Stadium, which at the time was being built. The suggestion angered Wigan fans as the Reebok was located four miles away from Wigan town centre.
Whilst this was going on Wigan entered the new season with Graeme West still coach. The Challenge Cup draw was unkind as they were drawn away to St Helens. Hope was high that they could avenge the loss of the league championship to them in 1996, but they crashed out of the competition with a 26-12 defeat. The fall out from the defeat was massive, Graeme West was sacked and a couple of days later Va'aiga Tuigamala was sold for £1 million. Wigan simply could not refuse the offer due to the massive debts they had. Wigan replaced West with Eric Hughes who was promoted from his job as Academy coach. Hughes was not a popular choice as he had previously been coach at St Helens. In fact he was sacked at Saints following the 1995 Regal Trophy Final defeat to Wigan. Jack Robinson however claimed the Saints current successes was down to the foundations Hughes had laid there.
In mid February Rugby League sources continued to tout Wigan Warriors as future lodgers of the new Reebok Stadium as Dave Whelan's offer to buy Central Park had been vetoed by the board. The board was made up of four people. Jack Robinson, Arthur Thomas, Tom Rathbone and John Martin. They had a vote over Whelan's offer and Martin, who ran the Riverside Club at Central Park, was the only member of the board who voted for it. The other three voted against as they were holding out for an increased offer from Tesco and thus seeing us move out of the town to Bolton.. Following the vote Martin resigned has he had become frustrated by the board's apparent lack of urgency to agree the Whelan plan despite shareholders voting in favour of the move.
In late February news emerged that Wigan were holding talks with Bolton about a ground share. Dave Whelan responded to the news by offering to virtually wipe out the club's debts within 48 hours. In early March Tesco increased their offer to buy Central Park to £12.5 million news broke that the ground sale was to "go-ahead". Fans held a protest outside Central Park ahead of a pre season friendly against Castleford whilst other fans chose to boycott the game. Some fans even travelled down to Tesco Headquarters and protested there! The Wigan fans simply did not want the club to move to Bolton, even if it was for a temporary period. They could not believe the board could sell the ground without a permanent new home being in place.
As the month wore on over 200 disgruntled shareholders met to discuss the controversial decision to sell Central Park to Tesco. They also backed a petition calling for the removal of chairman Jack Robinson and Mick Rathbone from the board immediately.
Meanwhile the league season got underway on March 16th. Wigan began with two victories over Halifax and Castleford before a shock announcement was made on March 27th. One of our favourite sons, the legend Shaun Edwards was to leave the club. He asked to leave so he could be near his London-based girlfriend and new-born son. Wigan agreed to let him go to London Broncos and immediately signed Tony Smith for £150,000 from Castleford as his replacement.
The off field wranglings began to affect the team on the field as they lost both Easter Fixtures with St Helens and Warrington. They then beat Leeds by a point but that was followed by further defeats to Bradford and Salford.
Into May and shareholders had decided they wanted to oust Jack Robinson as chairman. A shareholders action group claimed the board sold Central Park to Tesco without consultation after previously agreeing to accept a rescue package from millionaire Dave Whelan. Former player Phil Clarke was offered to the shareholders as the man to lead the ousting bid. The group's next move will be a circular to the club's 1500 shareholders seeking support for their attempt to remove Mr Robinson and his vice-chairman Tom Rathbone at an Emergency General Meeting on May 20. On the field Wigan restored a bit of pride with a good 38-10 win over London.
A week before the shareholders EGM, Wigan unveil details of a proposed new super stadium. But critics of the board fear that if the team moves out of town to Bolton Wanderers' new stadium at Horwich they will never return to Wigan. Robinson had met the shareholders' action group that week but their spokeman Ernie Benbow said at the time that "he was unable to give any categorical assurances about a site in Wigan."
At the same time Dave Whelan unveiled plans to build a new 25,000 seater stadium for Wigan Athletic at Robin Park but he refused to open ground share negotiations with the Wigan board after the collapse of his Central Park rescue package earlier this year.
On 20th May Wigan shareholders held the EGM and Jack Robinson survived, for now. Robinson won a vote of confidence 484 to 400 while fellow board member, Rathbone held on by 489 to 407. So Robinson was still chairman but Wigan were still homeless. The wrangling was far from over.
Back on the field Wigan met St Helens at Knowsley Road. This was Eric Hughes' return there following his sacking in 1995. He took sweet revenge as Wigan somehow produced a thumping 65-12 win. That was a sweet, sweet win in their own backyard! They followed this up with a victory over Paris at home.
June saw Wigan travel to Australia for 3 matches as part of an expanded World Club Challenge which saw all ten Australian Super League clubs competing against all twelve European clubs. The whole tournament turned out to be a bit of a joke as the Aussie sides outclassed the Brits, winning 75 of the 83 matches. Wigan beat Canterbury Bulldogs 22-18 in there first match but then were nilled by Brisbane and suffered a then record 56-22 defeat to Canberra. A month later Wigan would met the same three sides again at Central Park.
The month long trip down under had quietened the Jack Robinson saga but as they returned he faced a new vote of confidence from the shareholders. A newspaper reported that an associate gathered proxy votes for the original EGM in May by fraudulent methods. The paper claimed someone was instructed to fill in forms for shareholders who were believed to have died so they could be used as votes in favour of the two Wigan directors. Robinson reacted by saying "(The claims) are totally untruthful. This is just part of a smear campaign which has been going on by a certain group of people who want me out of the club."
The wrangling was really beginning to affect the side on the field as they suffered an heavy defeat away at London and then an embarrassing defeat away to Paris.
Then the Australians visited for the return leg of the World Club Challenge. Wigan lost to Brisbane 30-4 before managed to beat a Canterbury side which had been reduced to 11 men 31-24. Canberra then repeated the hammering they had given us over there with a 50-10 victory. Despite losing four of their six matches, Wigan still qualified for the Quarter Finals which would be played at the end of the league season.
The off field saga continued and so did Wigan's poor league form. More defeats to Sheffield and Salford left Wigan with no chance of winning the league title. Coach Eric Hughes vowed to "get on with it" despite the problems.
On Tuesday August 19th Jack Robinson and Tom Rathbone resigned from the Wigan board. Coach Eric Hughes revealed that they had their homes damaged and their lives threatened. Following the resignations the Rugby Football League's financial were called in by the club to investigate its cash flow position. Arthur Thomas was the only remaining board member left so it was he who became temporary chairman. With Robinson gone John Martin, who earlier had resigned from the board, offered to ease the club's financial problems with a 750,000 interest free loan. But the offer was conditional on the Warriors staying in Wigan and rejecting a temporary move to Bolton. He made the offer to bide the club time to negotiate a deal to move to proposed Robin Park stadium with Wigan Athletic on a permanent basis."
Wigan's next match was an away to bottom of the table Oldham and Wigan just managed to scrape a 32-26 win, which put them fourth in the table. That was followed with a much better performance in the final match of the season as they hammered Leeds 38-4. Wigan finished the season in 4th position and ended the difficult domestic season by winning the last ever end of season Premiership trophy with a 33-20 victory over St Helens at Old Trafford. The kept up Wigan record of winning a trophy in every season since 1984-85.
The season didn't finish, as it normally would have done, with the Premiership final as the World Club Challenge tournament was still to be decided. Wigan, aiming to win it for a fourth time, met Hunter Mariners in the Quarter Finals at Central Park. Wigan took a 14-4 lead in the match but let it slip in controversial fashion. The match hinged on a suspiciously-looking forward pass that put the Mariners over for the try which gave them crucial 18-14 lead with 15 minutes to go. "One wrong decision cost us the game," claimed coach Eric Hughes. "To me, it was a long, long way forward, and it was crucial. It was the major turning point. Hunter hung on and Wigan's season was over.
The complete the story of the off field situation. It was announced on October 29th that Wigan would not be moving to the Reebok Stadium. Mike Nolan, who owned finance and car leasing businesses in Wigan, took over as chairman of the club from Arthur Thomas. He was joined on the board by John Martin who returned after his row with the old regime. Tesco agreed to let the Warriors stay on at Central Park until the end of 1999, when they would then join up with Wigan Athletic at there new stadium which was about to be built Robin Park. In November the new board sacked Eric Hughes and began making sweeping behind the scenes chances ahead of a new dawn in 1998.

Campbell's 190th Year
Established in 1830, Campbell's Bakery is an independent family run craft bakery, however we are by no means stuck in our ways!
In addition to traditional Scottish favourites such as scotch pies, oatcakes and shortbread, we also make a wide variety of breads and cakes inspired by different areas around the world.
When our founder Donald Campbell opened his small bakery in the picturesque town of Callander in 1830 he probably never thought the bakery would still be going strong almost 190 years later!
Our bakery in Crieff was started in 1929 by Donald's great grandson Bob Campbell and his wife Cathy. The newlyweds worked hard selling everything from morning rolls to wedding cakes. Bob was one of the first people in Crieff to have a motorised vehicle which he used on his "roll round" – a twice a day delivery service to people who couldn't make it into the shop. In the morning he went round the houses and farms with morning rolls and bread and in the afternoon he delivered fresh tea bread and scones.
Bob and Cathy's son Jim joined his parents in the business in 1950. After Bob's death in 1971 Jim and his mum became business partners. In 1980, Jim's wife Alice joined the bakery and became Jim's business partner when Cathy died in 1981.
Iain, Jim and Alice's son, joined the family business in 1993. Iain is the seventh generation to run the family business. Today Iain, his wife Ailsa and all the team work hard to maintain the high quality the bakery is known for. All the breads, biscuits, cakes and pies are made in small batches by hand by Iain and his team of talented bakers on the premises using the highest quality ingredients Iain can source.

Steveoreno's is a cozy place with great food and great coffee. My partner Matt Baram fell in love with their coffee while he was there shooting SEED in Halifax so now whenever I go I grab a bag of coffee beans for him. They say the way to a mans heart is through his veins right?
Where's your favourite place in Nova Scotia to grab a pint?
Love Maxwell Plum - we go there a lot...probably cause it's closest for us and not ALL the way down the hill - but also the staff are really lovely.
I'm a big fan of Biscuit - always something cool and original there - love their jewelry!
We stay at the Cambridge Suites - so when I work out in the morning I can see the hill and the water...it's a pretty great way to start the day.
1. Eat lobster in the market.
2. Walk up citadel hill or along the ocean with someone you like.
3. Go listen to Jerry MacPhee's band "Bent" when they play at the Pogue Fado or Durty Nelly's - -always a good time!
This sounds like a cliche ...but the people. We have the best crew on Mr.D - so when the cameras aren't rolling there are still jokes on set.
We're thrilled round these parts - Naomi's hilarious show Mr.D has been renewed and will be back for 3rd Season. The cast and crew will be back in "action" here in Halifax, Nova Scotia very soon.
and from June 3-9 The Script Tease Project at Soulpepper - they asked 8 playwrights to write two pages of a script, they read it cold in front of the audience and then improvise the rest of the play! Awesome!!!

Roma, CSKA Moscow Both Have Better Odds Than Man City
Published on November 8th, 2014 5:03 pm EST
When the Champions League Group Stage draws were announced, many people thought that Group E would be a two horse battle between Bayern Munich and Man City.
Bayern Munich has certainly held up their end of the bargain so far, compiling a 4-0-0 record over their first four games of Group Stage play for a total of 12 points. The notoriously stingy Bayern Munich defense has allowed just one goal so far in Group Stage play and look practically invincible.
The other three teams in the group are left to fight for the remaining spot. Here are the current standings as of this moment:
Bayern Munich, 12 points
AS Roma, 4 points
CSKA Moscow, 4 points
Man City, 2 points
Man City, one of the world's most powerful clubs, has compiled a miserly two points over its first four games of Group Stage play. Things hit rock bottom for the club this week when they dropped a crucial match to CSKA Moscow.
There is still hope for Man City, though the odds are certainly against them. Here are the current odds to qualify from Group E (excluding Bayern Munich):
Roma, 1.53
CSKA Moscow, 4.00
Man City, 5.50
According to these odds, Man City has just a 18.18% chance of securing the second spot in Group E. Roma is in the driver's seat right now, as they have a 65.36% chance of making it through to the next stage.
Man City's journey does not get any easier as they are next set to take on Bayern Munich at home in late November.
It's safe to say that Man City needs a strong result in that game or else their Champions League hopes will be dashed.

Welcome To All That Shreds Magazine!
Dedicated to Hard Rock and Heavy Metal Guitar And Music!
Former Judas Priest Members K.K. Downing, Les Binks & Tim 'Ripper' Owens To Perform Bands Classic Songs At One-Off Concert
All That Shreds Magazine September 17, 2019 No Comments Dave Ellefsonjudas priestKK downingtim ripper owens
Former JUDAS PRIEST members K.K. Downing (guitar), Les Binks (drums) and Tim "Ripper" Owens (vocals) will join forces to perform "a full-length set of PRIEST classics" with MEGADETH bassist David Ellefson on November 3 in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom.
The one-off show at K.K.'s Steel Mill will feature a full band set from Ellefson's "Sleeping Giants" band, followed by the PRIEST set with Downing, Binks and Owens. Former IRON MAIDEN vocalist Blaze Bayley will be the evening's opening support act. Additionally, the Steel Mill will also host a special pre-show VIP event whereby attendees will be treated to a "More Life With Deth" book-signing event and one-on-one question-and-answer session with Ellefson, Downing and Ellefson's "More Life With Deth" co-author Thom Hazaert, moderated by Mark Eglinton, who co-authored Downing's recent memoir "Heavy Duty Days And Nights In Judas Priest".
Says Downing: "I am very pleased to have been asked to perform a unique and special concert with MEGADETH's David Ellefson to celebrate the release of his new book, 'More Life With Deth'. The concert will also bring about the opportunity to play again with some very dear and talented metal legends from the past. The combination of these icons will for sure enable us to deliver up one of the most exciting concerts this year, so much so that it would not be out of place to call this the ultimate ass-kicking 'MegaPriest' fest, and is one that is not to be missed."
Adds Ellefson: "I speak very candidly in my new book 'More Life with Deth' about the significance JUDAS PRIEST played in my early musical trajectory, specifically the 'Unleashed In The East' live album with its picture-perfect image of what heavy metal should look and sound like. To me, that album, along with its powerful cover image, captured the excitement I felt for a new era of music, one that would transition me from my roots in American hard rock over to that of British heavy metal.
"Over the years, K.K. and I became fast friends while we toured together with PRIEST and MEGADETH, and I'm beyond thrilled to perform together onstage with him and his former PRIEST bandmates, as we light up the Steel Mill together for a night of molten metal classics!"
He continues: "Thom and I have been touring all summer across the USA supporting the new book and our 'Sleeping Giants' release. Plus Ripper and I have shared stages all around the world in the last decade or so, and now to add Les Binks in the mix, who to my generation was the ultimate metal double-bass drummer, this has become the ultimate 'metal' family reunion!"
In other news, Ellefson has announced a European solo tour, featuring a full band playing songs from his recent solo release, "Sleeping Giants", and other metal classics. Performing with Ellefson will be Hazaert on vocals, plus guitarist Andy Martongelli, who toured with Ellefson and Frank Bello's ALTITUDES AND ATTITUDE and appears on the "Sleeping Giants" track "Hammer (Comes Down)".
Ellefson published his new memoir, "More Life With Deth", in July via Jawbone Press, along with a companion solo release, "Sleeping Giants".
Binks played drums on PRIEST's "Stained Class", "Hell Bent For Leather" (released as "Killing Machine" in the United Kingdom) and "Unleashed In The East" albums.
Downing reconnected with Binks in 2017 for the first time in nearly four decades. Downing later described the experience of meeting his former bandmate as "great" and called Les "one of the greatest drummers in the world and a good friend and a great guy."
Owens joined PRIEST in 1996 and recorded two studio albums with the band — 1997's "Jugulator" and 2001's "Demolition" — before PRIEST reunited with Rob Halford in 2003.

Catalogs and Surveys Group

GSC-II
GSPC-I
GSPC-II
Sky Surveys
HST Support
The Catalogs and Surveys Branch of the Space Telescope Science Institute constructed the Guide Star Catalog I (GSC-I) to support the pointing and target acquisition for the Hubble Space Telescope. For the last decade the GSC-I has been used for numerous other purposes, for example, the observation planning for fiber optic spectrographs, the preparation of finding charts, and the operation of ground-based telescopes.
The GSC-I catalog is an all-sky catalog of positions and magnitudes for approximately 19 million stars and other objects in the sixth to fifteenth magnitude range. The GSC is primarily based on an all-sky, single-epoch collection of Schmidt plates. For centers at +6° and north, a 1982 epoch "Quick V" survey was obtained from the Palomar Observatory, while for southern fields, materials from the UK SERC J survey (epoch = 1975) and its equatorial extension (epoch = 1982) were used. See "Sky Surveys" for more information on the plates.
All the plates were digitized at the Space Telescope Science Institute into 14000 X 14000 rasters at a 25 micron sampling interval using two modified PDS micro-densitometers.
IMPORTANT - HST observers should now use GSC 2 for observation planning
GSC 1.0
The original version of this catalog was created to support the identification and use of Guide Stars for the pointing of the HST. It is based on the Palomar Quick-V survey in the northern hemisphere and the SERC-J survey in the south. This catalog contains objects in the magnitude range 7-16 and the classification was biased to prevent the use of a non-stellar object as a guide star. The photometry is based on a photoelectric sequence (9-15th mag) near the center of each Schmidt plate. Only stellar photometry was performed so magnitudes of galaxies in this catalog are systematically in error. Astrometry was determined using the AGK3, SAOC or CPC stars depending on plate declination. Although the relative astrometry (required for HST) is about 0.3 arcsec, there are known systematic errors near the plate edges of about 1-2 arcsec.
A revised version of the GSC was created with the cooperation of the HIPPARCOS/TYCHO consortia. As part of the preparation for this mission, an input catalog containing the best available data for all stars to at least 11th magnitude was created. By merging these data with the GSC, we were able to add the missing bright star data to provide a complete all-sky catalogue down to the GSC limiting magnitude. In addition, many of the false objects due to artifacts around the halos and diffraction spikes of the bright stars were identified and corrected as well as a number of reported errors. A number of astrographic plates centered on southern hemisphere bright stars (m<3) were also processed and added to the catalog.
This is the version used by HST operations prior to cycle 15 and is published to the community.
In collaboration with the Astronomisches Rechen-Institut in Heidelberg, a new astrometric reduction of the GSC has been completed. This new version, GSC 1.2 has dramatically reduced the plate-based position-dependant and magnitude-dependant systematics present in GSC 1.1
The PPM and AC reference catalogues were used and absolute position errors have been reduced to about 0.3-0.4 arcsec.

Q: hstore: cannot concatenate two hstore values New to Postgres, using v9.3, want to leverage hstore.
When I try to concatenate two hstore values I get a weird error:
SELECT p.properties->'name' || p.properties->'age' FROM people p where p.id=1;

The error is:
ERROR:  operator does not exist: text -> unknown
LINE 1: select n.properties->'name' || n.properties->'age' from n...
                                                   ^
HINT:  No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You might need to add explicit type casts.

I tried this too, and it didn't matter:
SELECT p.properties->'name'::text || p.properties->'age'::text FROM people p where p.id=1;

However, I can do
SELECT p.properties->'name' FROM people p where p.id=1;

SELECT p.properties->'age' FROM people p where p.id=1;

Is it not possible to concatenate two hstore values out of the same hstore?
Any pointers appreciated!

A: You can do with the CAST function as is :
SELECT CAST(p.properties->'name' AS text) || CAST(p.properties->'age' AS text) FROM people p where p.id=1;

Suzu: Soon the bells will be ringing, Innocia.
Innocia: Christmas is still a month and twenty-five, Suz.
Suzu: Yes, little Christmas girl. But the Church rings them twelve a year, and tomorrow the eleventh.
Innocia: I don't think that many people go around marking the occasion if it's so often each year, you know. Is it that important?
Suzu: What makes you think it's important? It is merely a mark of the beginning again, isn't it? To one such as you. Something so trivial that people regard it as a mere amusement every first.
Innocia: A mere thought indeed. But I suppose the renewal of months is at least of certain significance.
Suzu: Why a bell, Innocia? Have you ever wondered?
Innocia: ...not really. Is it not its clarity and loudness that rings like the cawing birds? Why the question?
Suzu: Because you don't really think about it. Listen carefully to what the bells sound like. A cry of loneliness from high above, unable to ever be alongside people. A wish for those so far below to ascend from the depths they have sunken to. A mourning for the world which has been abandoned by mankind. Listen to it, Innocia, and reflect. Its call is crisp but sad, and strong but frail. Each cry is a tick closer to the end, and each chime is a mourning for them all.
Innocia: Why do you take such a negative view, Suzu? Can't you see it the other way round?
Suzu: I'm afraid I'm not sure what you mean.
Innocia: It is because it is a new month, Suzu. A chance to renew oneself; a time to start again; a way to make up for the mistakes of the past. For this chance nothing rings louder than the bells of the church, hanging high atop, their resonating chimes a relief and a call for one to firm up. And moreso, a call for worshippers to enter and give praise for this chance to redeem themselves, to worship. Each call is beautiful yet firm, joyful yet stern, and soft yet powerful. Give thanks, Suzu, for you can still hear the bells for time to come. There are those who are deaf to its ringing, and there are those for whom the bell no longer chimes for. Each sound is a month for you to relish, and each day of its silence is one you should never take for granted.
Suzu: ...I suppose it is like you to see things that way.
Innocia: What do you think it feels like to stare down at everyone the way they do? It isn't always a sad feeling, y'know. I'm sure they chime for hope and not for mourning. How about this? I'll treat you to a drink tomorrow, a toast to November. Albert'll pay. And we'll walk around, and then you can see it. I'm sure.
Innocia: That whoever it is, whenever it is, and wherever it is, the bells will not bring a message of sadness to them. Promise?
Suzu: I guess I have to.

Egypt: Between a rock and a hard place
Choosing between the military and the Islamists is no easy decision for Egyptians in their presidential election.
By KHALED DIAB

Will Egyptians side with the anti-revolutionary military old guard or the counter-revolutionary Islamist vanguard when choosing their next president?
The counter-revolution is gathering pace in Egypt. After initial elation at the spectacle of millions of Egyptians queuing patiently (in a country where queue-jumping is a national pastime) to cast their ballot for one of more than a dozen candidates in unprecedented presidential elections in which the winner was not known in advance, a by-now familiar feeling of disillusionment set in when the results of the first round were announced.
In a turn of events that proved surprising to just about everyone, the last two candidates left standing were Mohamed Mursi of the Muslim Brotherhood's conservative wing and "Mubarak's man" Ahmed Shafiq, one-time air force commander, ex-aviation minister and Mubarak's unpopular first choice for prime minister when the revolution broke out early last year.
Neither Mursi nor Shafiq were the pundits' favorite. In fact, both men were hovering low in most polls prior to the elections. The early favorites were the reform-minded, pluralist and relatively liberal former Muslim Brother Abdel-Moneim Aboul Fotouh, and Amr Moussa, the popular one-time foreign minister.
Moussa emerged from the revolution relatively unscathed due to his personal incorruptibility and the fact that he had distanced himself from some of the Mubarak regime's most notorious and abusive years during his decade-long tenure as secretary-general of the Arab League.
Though I, in common with most young revolutionaries, opposed Moussa's candidacy because of his close association with the former regime, some long-time dissidents have expressed their support for him. One example is Hisham Kassem, the veteran independent publisher and human rights activist.
"I want a strong president," he told me prior to the elections while seated at a dusty desk amid the bare concrete at the Cairo offices of his soon-to-be-launched newspaper, which he has optimistically named al-Gumhoriya al-Gadida (New Republic) to reflect Egypt's changing reality. "I don't want Egypt to enter a Latin American scenario of political collapse and a new president every six months."
While Moussa had the support of "stability-seeking" reformers like Kassem, Aboul Fotouh had the vote of many in the anti-establishment but pragmatic middle ground, who sought a consensus candidate.
"Aboul Fotouh genuinely believes in equality," the prominent human rights activist Hossam Bahgat, who founded the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights, reflected as a number of shishas, or waterpipes, bubbled thoughtfully around us.
However, these two men confounded expectations, with Aboul Fotouh ending up fourth and Moussa fifth, with third place going to the late-starting favourite for the secular, revolutionary vote, Hamdeen Sabahi, a reform-minded leftist and die-hard Nasserist.
With the race for the presidency now reduced to a contest between a counter-revolutionary, neo-liberal Islamist and an anti-revolutionary, neo-liberal general, revolutionaries and pro-revolution Egyptians have been left with an extremely bitter pill to swallow and a stark choice to make at the ballot box: vote for "felloul" (remnants of the old regime) or conservative Islamism.
A heated debate is taking place between secular revolutionaries about which of the two candidates to vote for in order to best preserve the aims of the revolution, or whether it would be more principled to boycott the second-round vote altogether to show that neither man enjoys a sufficient mandate.
But what brought about this "nightmare scenario," as it has come to be described in revolutionary circles?
Well, both men appear to have been helped by the fragmentation and disarray of the revolutionaries and the low turnout of just over 40 percent, which is tiny considering that this election was Egypt's first truly free presidential race and some had hoped it would mark the birth of the "second republic."
This low turnout was reflective of the paucity of good candidates, the disillusionment felt by pro-revolutionaries that their revolution had been "stolen" or "hijacked," and disappointment at the revolution's failure to deliver concrete socio-economic results following high initial expectations.
Ahmed Shafiq, who has the tacit backing of the army and the police, managed to steal votes from the Moussa "stability" camp but also capitalized on the "fear" vote, drawing support from those who harbored Mubarak sympathies and those who are terrified by the prospect of an Islamist takeover in Egypt, including the country's vulnerable Christian minority. For his part, Mohamed Mursi seems to have walked away with the conservative Islamic vote, particularly in the more traditional rural areas in the south of the country.
Does the victory of these two contenders who have questionable democratic credentials mean that Egyptians do not prize freedom?
There are certainly some Egyptians who seem enamored of authoritarianism, as reflected by the surprising number of people I met in Cairo who voiced support for Omar Suleiman, Mubarak's shadowy and dangerous intelligence chief, as Egypt's next president, who was later disqualified from the race.
That said, pro-revolutionary candidates occupied third and fourth place, with close to 40% of the vote. Furthermore, quite a lot of those who voted for the top two candidates did so not out of some anti-freedom platform but because they have other, more immediate fears and priorities for the transitional phase.
But if Egyptians vote for Mursi to oppose Shafiq as the symbol of the old regime that would mean that the Islamists will win the double whammy of the parliament and presidency. What would be the consequences of such an outcome of the future of Egypt?
As someone who believes wholeheartedly in a new Egypt of full freedom, equality and economic and social justice, I fear what impact this conservative current will have on society. But in order to understand its possible consequences, we need to delve into its causes.
Fundamentalist Islam, like fundamentalist Judaism and Christianity, is partly a response to the onslaught of modernity and the insecurity it has engendered. In Egypt, it is also a backlash against the corruption, nepotism, oppression and failure of the country's secular regimes, as well as the unequal global order, to deliver prosperity, equality and dignity to ordinary people. Also, in situations of grinding poverty, poor education and stark inequality, people often fall back on the safety cushion of religion.
Moreover, part of the appeal Islamists enjoy is due to the fact that they have always been in opposition, and the few months they have been at the wheel of parliament have already corroded their popularity and turned many former supporters against them, who accuse them of being a religious version of Mubarak's now-defunct National Democratic Party.
If Islamists fail to deliver visible improvements on crucial bread-and-butter issues, such as employment, health and education, then the electorate is likely to conclude that Islam, or at least Islamism, is not the solution to their woes, and may turn to the secular revolutionaries as an alternative.
But what if these elections turn out to be "one person, one vote, one time," as Western critics of Islamism claim?
"Don't panic," is Hisham Kassem's attitude. "I don't think the Islamists are powerful enough to change the identity of the state."
Many Egyptians also believe that the Islamist-secularist fault line is exaggerated and even a distraction. While it certainly does exist, it is not a black-and-white division, with a significant proportion of secularists supporting traditional values and religious intolerance, while many Islamists, particularly younger ones, believing in democracy, religious freedom and individual rights.
Also, the ranks of the right wing and left wing, the revolutionary and counter-revolutionary, the progressive and reactionary are to be found on both sides of the Islamist-secularist border.
"It's much more comfortable for the two sides to engage in a culture war," observes Hossam Bahgat. "But the real issue is building a democratic system, and striving for social justice and economic justice. The battle over identity is just polemics."
Khaled Diab is an Egyptian journalist currently based in Jerusalem.

10 Reasons Everything Is Better with Patrick Stewart
His new Starz show, "Blunt Talk," can't possibly suck, because he's in it.
By Brenden Gallagher
Blunt Talk, Patrick Stewart's new Starz comedy, starts off with a stumble in its season premiere (August 22, 9 p.m. ET). Crude humor and simple plotting combine to create a show that believes it is edgier than it actually is. But even in a deeply uneven vehicle, the right star can still shine. Though Blunt Talk suffers from executive producer Seth MacFarlane at his most crass and creator/writer Jonathan Ames at his most ponderous, Stewart is, as always, magnetic. We'll give the subpar Blunt Talk a little bit more rope to hang itself with because of the man at the center of the proceeding.
As you gear up to watch Blunt Talk, let's talk about all the things that make Sir P.Stew great. Here are 10 reasons everything is better with Patrick Stewart.
He oozes class.
The first scene of the Blunt Talk premiere features Stewart waxing historical with his favorite bartender. While many older men sitting alone sipping whiskey would come across as somewhere on a continuum between pathetic and degenerate, P.Stew brings an aura of dignity to even the least dignified moments. The way he holds a tumbler of whiskey is enough to make you understand how the brown stuff became a symbol of classy masculinity. If anyone can make drinking alone look good, it's him.
He always knows what he's talking about.
Early on in the Blunt Talk pilot, Stewart gives his bartender a lesson on the House of Windsor's twentieth century history. As he rolls through historical chestnuts like, "One time in New York, Jimmy was shaving the sex organs of a soldier and by mistake he lopped off his balls," you get the sense that the man has done his research. Whether Stewart comes by his aura of authority through actual research or carefully practiced patterns of speech, we'll never know, but one thing is for sure: When P.Stew says something, you believe it.
When in doubt, he can add a Shakespearean monologue.
One nice thing about having Patrick Stewart in your show is that when you need to make a scene pop, you can just drop in a piece of the Bard, and the rest takes care of itself. When Stewart's character Walter Blunt is arrested for soliciting a prostitute and drunk driving (as one does), he launches into a Hamlet soliloquy on top of his very expensive Jaguar (as one does). What could have been a hacky Hugh Grant reference turned into decent dramatic moment thanks to Stewart's unique relationship with old Billy Shakes.
He knows how to handle a butler.
Jonathan Ames, Seth McFarlane, and company have made their fair share of missteps early on in the process of Blunt Talk. But one smart choice they made was to give Patrick Stewart a butler, played by Adrian Scarborough. The comic butler is a deep-seated tradition in English arts and literature that includes P.G. Wodehouse's Jeeves, Oscar Wilde's plays, and any number of things you were forced to read in college. Experienced British stage actors know how to milk these characters for every ounce of comedy. Predictably, the scenes between Blunt and his "man" Henry are some of the best in Blunt Talk so far.
He can manage terrible dialogue.
Dialogue is definitely a weakness of Blunt Talk. The script relies on a load of brashness without a lot of craft. Luckily, Stewart knows how to make awful dialogue hit as hard as it possibly can. As a classically trained actor, P.Stew is a master of rhythm. He can deploy creative punctuation and emphasis across even the worst lines, and sometimes manage to wring laughs out where we thought they wouldn't exist. If you're going to put lipstick on a pig, you should find someone who can choose the right shade.
10 Celebrities You Didn't Know Got Their Start on Reality TV
The man can move.
Along his journey from Shakespeare to Starfleet to the Internet's favorite octogenarian meme, Stewart has picked up some dance moves. The man comes from an old school of acting where men were expected to dance, and in Blunt Talk, he shows off his moves. Though he doesn't quite pull off Magic Mike moves, he's still got a few shuffle steps up his sleeve.
He's up for whatever you throw at him.
Not every revered actor would be up for putting himself in compromising positions. The British acting tradition is a bit less ego driven than what we have in the States, and as a result, actors from across the pond tend to take more risks. If you turn on the BBC, you'll find leads from your favorite shows picking up bit parts on other series. The reparatory tradition of the British stage has bled onto the screen, and created a breed of actor hungry for risk.
He elevates the actors around him.
The weaknesses of Blunt Talk are most evident in the few minutes when P.Stew isn't onscreen. The precision of his emotions, running the gamut from rakish snark to impotent rage, helps the other actors make sense of weak dialogue and a fractured story. Even when the script doesn't make sense, Walter Blunt does. Perhaps the greatest testament to his skills is what happens when he isn't in the scene. Without Stewart's magnetic presence, scenes quickly fall apart.
He can bring the fire.
Stewart clearly treasures the moments when he's allowed to rage blindly against…whatever it is that Walter Blunt is raging against. In the second episode, when the hurricane he's covering gets downgraded to non-newsworthy status, Blunt, decked out in his finest yellow raincoat, goes off. Stewart delivers a monologue in grand style, full of bluster and bravado. If you weren't listening to the words, you'd think it was something out of King Lear. Though when he launches into these long speeches, you feel like he's imagining himself working with better material, it still a pleasure to watch him bring the flame emojis.
He carries the weight of his experiences to the screen.
It isn't just his Shakespeare that you can see peeking through as Stewart stalks the screen. Just as with other seasoned actors like Ian McKellen and Michael Caine, you can often see P.Stew's past roles in his current work. Even in playing a man as hopelessly impotent at Walter Blunt, you see the bearing of the man who once commanded Star Fleet. In his attempts at reckoning with his fading mortality, you remember his work in roles like Captain Ahab. With almost 150 film and TV credits and innumerable stage roles under his belt, when you watch an actor like Stewart, you can almost see him scrolling through his own resume, allowing the tools he's gathered over the decades to inform his work.

Gadarich (Gadareiks) war ein legendarischer König der Goten, der etwa im 2. Jahrhundert gelebt haben soll.

Er wird nur zweimal in Jordanes Getica erwähnt. Gadarich sei der ungefähr vierte König nach Berig gewesen, der in Gothiscandza geherrscht habe. Sein Sohn Filimer soll die Goten nach Süden geführt haben. Die Historizität der gotischen Origo gentis, zu der die Erzählung gehört, ist allerdings sehr umstritten.

In the face of repeated crises with Iraq over U.N. access to potential weapons production sites, U.S. policy toward Iraq faces a number of conflicting cross-currents. Many in Congress believe the crisis demonstrates that the long-term threat from Iraq can be eased only by removing Saddam Hussein from power. The Administration wants that outcome, but believes that achieving it would be difficult, and the U.S. policy should focus primarily on containing any threat from Iraq.

Telangana to roll out grievance redressal system through social media
Aug 9, 2020 Telangana to roll out grievance redressal, through social media
Hyderabad: Writing a letter to officials or making a telephone call to the call centre for redressal of grievances will soon be a thing of the past. The people of the State can now simply post their grievances on social media platforms or send a message through WhatsApp and tag the officials concerned to get their problems resolved.
After introducing the e-Office system for transparent and speedy functioning of government departments, the IT Department is now making efforts to create a common platform and ensure that grievances in all forms and modes are addressed in an effective manner. Tenders have been already invited for the Centralised Citizen Call Centre and Grievance Redressal System which is likely to go live within the next two months.
Official sources said the dedicated, fully equipped and integrated call centre is being established to receive and answer calls from the public on various issues relating to services of various government departments of the State through a single uniform number. "The proposed citizen call centre will provide a grievance management system wherein grievances that are received through email, online, call centre, SMS and other means, are logged into the grievance redressal system. A separate application for grievance redressal system is also being developed which will be primarily mobile based and integrated with the call centre," a top official confirmed to Telangana Today.
Further, citizens can track the status of their complaints by contacting the call centre. The staff at the call centre will focus on complaint or grievance registration, information gathering on implementation of the schemes or redressal of the grievances, obtaining suggestions or feedback from the citizens for better functioning, and also pursue the issues with the officials concerned for timely action.
"The calls registered with the Citizen Helpline shall be routed to the official concerned who will have to resolve the issue within a stipulated time frame. The departmental heads and other top officials responsible will also be able to directly keep track of the redressal of various grievances, prompting swift action in a transparent manner," an official said.
Citizen call centre or helpline is aimed to provide a common platform to all departments imparting G2C (government to citizen) services, involving more than 100 departments. A standard software platform will be used for the Call Centre Application and Portal for online submission of grievances.

America: The Threat of Interfaith Dialogue
by Worldview News Team
Evangelical Christians in the U.S. are under attack by Islamists and Marxists, says Brannon Howse, founder of Worldview Weekend, because they are "the only real obstacles [to America] being completely overtaken" by those groups. When the Judeo-Christian ethic of America falters, "we are done as a constitutional republic," because it is Christian faith that promotes the defense of a constitutional republic based on a Judeo-Christian worldview.
Howse says the greatest threat to evangelicals, specifically, is interfaith dialogue. An egregious example of that, he says, came from the words of Islamist theoretician Sayyid Qutb, who stated that "interfaith dialogue is a one-way bridge to bring the non-Muslim to the side of the Muslim – not the other way around."
Islamists aren't the only ones who use that tactic, says Howse.
"Interfaith dialogue is [also] being promoted by Marxist groups like the Gamaliel Network," he tells OneNewsNow. The Gamaliel Network can be found in over 17 states and was "expanded greatly" in the 1980s by a former Jesuit priest by the name of Gregory Galluzzo. He notes that Galluzzo studied under Saul Alinsky and helped to bring Barack Obama to Chicago to become a community organizer.

The city of Denver unveiled a $1.46 billion budget proposal for the 2019 fiscal year on Thursday morning.
DENVER — The city of Denver unveiled a $1.46 billion budget proposal for the 2019 fiscal year on Thursday morning.
This budget — which focuses on affordable housing, mobility, safety, mental health and drug abuse — provides a record $50 million for affordable housing, thanks to a 2 percent increase in the marijuana tax from 3.5 to 5.5 percent.
There is one major change: For the first time, families will have the opportunity to take advantage of a property tax rebate program for homeowners. Previously, only singles, elderly or disabled people were able to participate in that program.
More than 31 percent, or about $10 million, of the Affordable Housing Fund will support homeless programs.
This 2019 budget also provides an additional $27 million for Denver's Mobility Action Plan, which includes improvements to bicycle and pedestrian networks.
A total of $7.1 million will be invested in bike network infrastructure to create 125 miles of new bike lanes over the next five years.
The budget places new emphasis on mental health and opioid addiction treatment, which includes providing funding for a mobile van for needle exchanges.
To address safety issues with Denver's growing population, the city will hire 31 new police officers, three new detectives to focus on domestic violence cases and 37 new firefighters.
Much of this budget follows Mayor Michael Hancock's promise, which was laid out in the 2018 State of the City, to increase equity in underserved neighborhoods. That included $1.2 million for Work Now, an employment program to train workers in construction industry jobs.
To protect Denver's older neighborhoods, the budget authorizes $9 million in capital projects through the Denveright comprehensive plan .
Read the full budget proposal here .
