Ten minutes into the boat ride and Gordon knew he was done for. He'd sipped water, held his breath, closed his eyes, but nothing worked and Clara was beginning to notice.
Somehow, in all their time together, the fact that he was prone to getting sick on such rides had never come up. Now here they were, on their honeymoon and Clara had been so enthusiastic to take the tour boat, so he'd kept quiet and hoped for the best.
Clara yanked him near the rail. Gordon gasped, held on for dear life as he felt the dizziness shoot into his ears and emptied the entire contents of his morning breakfast overboard.
A few embarrassing moment later, they were back on dry land.
"But why didn't you tell me?" Clara patted Gordon gently on his arm.
"You were so excited, I didn't want to ruin it for you," said Gordon, sheepishly.
Clara smiled, she knew she'd married the right guy.

Haha this made me laugh. The things we do to keep loved ones happy and impress them! Nice one.
Poor guy! At least he got to prove to her just how much he loves her! LOL! Cute story S!
What a lovely story, well looks like they did not know each other so well then. But they will have time to find out. Like the sweetness of the tale and he is so sweet to not want to ruin her plans.
The first thing that came into my head when I read this was the song, 'The things we do for love…' but I see that a couple of other commenters have said the same thing! It really is lovely to think that Gordon put himself through the torture of seasickness in order not to spoil Clara's day – and that Clara loved him all the more for it.
That is so sweet! She's made the right choice in marrying him. 🙂 Lovely story.

Rudy Gay suffers a right heel injury in the second half and heads to the locker room.
Rudy Gay will be out at least two weeks with a right heel injury, the team announced.
"Spurs forward Rudy Gay underwent an MRI examination this morning in San Antonio. The exam revealed that Gay has right retrocalcaneal bursitis. He has started a rest and rehabilitation program and will be re-evaluated in two weeks."
The 12-year veteran suffered the injury when coming down from a contested shot near the basket. He finished with six points and seven rebounds in the Spurs' 119-107 win.
Gay missed the second half of last season with Sacramento after tearing his left Achilles tendon in January. He joined San Antonio in the offseason and has averaged 11.6 points and 5.1 rebounds in 33 games.

The test route that Terri took, encircled the area that Terri lives in, only then to enter a car park for a forward park Manoeuvre and to be told off bu a pensioner that they shouldn't be there so Terri's examiner just advised that they would leave and they headed off to a garden centre to perform the manoeuvre which Andy said was executed perfectly! Everyone at Relax Driving School would like to wish her all the very best in the future with her driving! WELL DONE!


FAC 51 The Haçienda architect Ben Kelly, the design team of Ben Cox and Bill Holding at Morph have collaborated with the full approval and support of original owner Peter Hook to produce two separate, limited edition art prints of the original FAC 51 The Haçienda which are to be launched at Buy Art Fair at Urbis, Manchester from the 24th to 27th September 2009.
The prints will subsequently be exhibited at the Zoo Art Fair in London from 16th to 19th October. At both exhibitions, they are exclusive to the Paul Stolper stand.
As FAC 51 The Haçienda has been beset by a number of unofficial and bootleg artworks which consistently fail to match the design standards set by the club, it was decided in early 2009 to produce this set of two art prints marking both East and West views of the original venue. This is the first and only time to date that FAC 51 The Haçienda has published any fine art prints of the club and marks an opportunity for art collectors to purchase exclusive and limited edition screen prints, officially endorsed by FAC 51 The Haçienda.
The project initially came about when Ben Cox and Bill Holding from Morph approached Ben Kelly in February 2007 about rebuilding The Haçienda as a digital model, requiring the original specifications from Ben who was happy to oblige.
It was then decided to produce two fine art prints from the digital installation, namely an east-side and a west-side view of the club across the dance-floor, showing the heroic scale and cathedral-like quality of FAC 51's interior which has served to make the club so legendary and longstanding in the memories of those who were lucky enough to attend.
The prints have been named "The Hacienda Interior West" and "The Hacienda Interior East".
These high quality silkscreen prints have been produced to the highest specifications by Coriander Studio, Fine Art Print-makers and Publishers, one of the world's leading art print manufacturers whose client roster also includes Damien Hirst and Sir Peter Blake.
Each print is part of a limited run of only 150, making a full run of 300 across both prints and is printed on 410 gsm Somerset Tub paper. The image sizes are 615mm x 765mm on a paper size of 742 x 905 mm.
All prints will be signed by Ben Kelly and Morph whilst an additional signed provenance on the artwork will come from Peter Hook.
The prints are to be represented exclusively by the Paul Stolper Gallery and can be viewed online at his website, www.paulstolper.com with all contacts contained therein.
The prints are to be initially launched by the Buy Art Fair at Urbis, Manchester, 24 – 27th September 2009. The first night preview is on Thursday 24th September from 5pm to 9pm and Ben Kelly, Morph and Peter Hook will be in attendance on the night.
The prints will also be exhibited at the Zoo Art Fair in London from the 16th to 19th October which takes place the same week as the Frieze Art Fair.

Rachel mentioned to me recently that she is approaching a landmark: the longest period of time she has not been pregnant since we were married. So goes the transition to midlife for both of us. We have no clue what (or rather, where) the coming year holds for us, but one thing is certain—this will be our last Christmas in Washington. Eventually the Army will get around to telling us where we'll be next year, and we'll let you know as soon as we find out. We're looking forward to the adventure.

Hell on Earth (Mobb Deep album)
Hell on Earth is the third studio album by East Coast hip hop duo Mobb Deep, which was first released on November 19, 1996, on Loud and RCA Records. The album is largely a continuation of Mobb Deep's previous album, the critically acclaimed The Infamous. The album is produced by Mobb Deep and also features guest appearances by emcees Nas, Raekwon, Method Man, and frequent collaborator Big Noyd. The album stands out for its acclaimed singles "G.O.D. Pt. III" and "Hell on Earth (Front Lines)," as well as "Drop a Gem on 'Em," a response to 2Pac's diss track "Hit 'Em Up." A promotional single, "Still Shinin'", was released earlier that year and later added to the album. The album, one of the earliest enhanced CDs, also contains an additional track ("In the Long Run") that at the time, had to be unlocked with the use of a computer.

Since most of the album was recorded during the height of the East Coast-West Coast rivalry, many fans considered the darker songs to be subliminal disses toward 2Pac and other West Coast emcees, but Prodigy sends shout-outs to a list of west coasts artists such as Snoop Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound, and Xzibit in the liner notes.

AVILLAFAN XI – Gareth Barry and Jack Grealish
Nick Sanders
AVILLAFAN XI (1990-Present) – Centre Midfielders
As with our centre backs, we found it hard to decide as to how to best divide the central midfielders up, so we again decided to let the Aston Villa faithful choose their perfect partnership. From the off, we have said we would go with a traditional 442 which makes the challenge even harder if you want to pack in midfielders!
By not separating midfielders that have played well through the middle either defensively or attacking, it means, you were in complete control of picking your dream duo.
Special mentions to Stiliyan Petrov, Paul Merson, Andy Townsend who were mentioned several times amongst others who were also popular amongst the Villa faithful.
Ultimately the two standout names that clearly came up most were Gareth Barry and Jack Grealish.
*Again we are fully aware they have played in other positions too!
Gareth Barry
D.O.B.: 23rd February 1981
Aston Villa career statistics
Played: 1998-2009
Appearances – 428 (Competitive)
Goals – 50 Assists – 27
Gareth Barry joined Aston Villa from Brighton and Hove Albion in 1997. At the time he was a trainee and the move was controversial, as transfer demands from Brighton totalled £2.5 million for the signing of both Barry and Michael Standing.
Barry would make his first-team debut for Aston Villa on 2nd May 1998, coming on as a substitute in a 3–1 win away against Sheffield Wednesday. He made a good impression and had been receiving rave reviews since signing as part of the academy sides.
His first goal would come in April 1999, when he replaced Dion Dublin and went on to finish Steve Stone's cross to seal a 2–0 home win over Nottingham Forest.
This was seen as a well-deserved reward for his hard work in becoming a regular within the first team in what was a breakthrough season.
Barry made 37 appearances across all competitions including three UEFA Cup games as Villa went out in the second round to Celta Vigo (Spain).
The following season was a big season for Barry and the entire squad. The side would finish 6th in the Premier League after a flying start which saw them in December.
In the cup competitions, John Gregory's men would reach the semi-finals of the League Cup, losing to eventual winners Leicester City.
But the main headline of this season was reaching the F.A. Cup Final which would be the last at the original Wembley Stadium and Villa's first since 1957.
Barry scored his penalty in the semi-final shootout against Bolton Wanderers but would go on to suffer heartbreak in the final as Villa would lose 1–0 to Chelsea.
On a positive note, the successful season would give him his first cap for England as he was called up and would subsequently come on to feature in a 2-0 win over Ukraine in May 2000.
The following season would see Barry help Villa to qualify for the UEFA Cup through defeating FC Basel 5–2 on aggregate in the final of the Intertoto Cup. But that would be as good as it got as Villa would have a largely average season.
From 2002-2007 Villa would go through a series of most forgettable seasons and would be close to relegation at times.
The following season would be the second full season under Martin O'Neill and under the ownership of Randy Lerner, the club would look to drive on in the Premier League on the 11th placed finish in the previous season.
In November 2007, several reports stated that Aston Villa would look to award Barry with a testimonial, which was seen as a surprise as at the time he was just 26. The idea was to recognise his 10 years at the club.
He would also become the youngest player to appear in 300 Premier League games. Beating the previous record held by Frank Lampard.
Later in the season, Barry helped to secure a 4–0 victory over Bolton Wanderers, scoring two goals and providing two assists.
With his consistent performances, many would say if Barry had a bad game, Villa had a bad game as he seemed to be at the heart of so much.
Perhaps inevitably, around May 2008, Barry would be linked to a move away from Villa Park and Liverpool made a series of bids which were rejected by Aston Villa.
There would be a huge talking point as Barry publicly criticised his manager, Martin O'Neill, for making no attempt to keep him at the club, and cited Champions League football as the primary reason for his wish to move to Anfield.
Barry would be officially disciplined for his interview before a further bid from Liverpool of around £15 million was rejected.
Barry would then be stripped of the captaincy and fined whilst being made to train away from the first team.
Despite this, he didn't lessen his efforts as a player and he would remain an Aston Villa player, scoring early in the season against FH Hafnarfjordur (Iceland) in a 4–1 win to help towards UEFA Cup qualification
On 18 September 2008, he made his 400th appearance away to Litex Lovech (Bulgaria), scoring a penalty as Villa won the match 3–1.
In the group stages, Barry scored again as Villa beat Ajax 2–1 in a memorable night at Villa Park.
Newly-made captain Martin Laursen would suffer a bad injury later on in the season and the captaincy was restored to Barry in January 2009. Another testament to his hard work and profession focus.
On 2nd June 2009, Barry signed a five-year contract with Manchester City, much to the dismay of Aston Villa fans who criticised him for this move considering his alleged desire to play in the UEFA Champions League.
Barry responded to this positively and wrote a letter to thank the Villa fans for their support while he was there.
He would become a favourite at Manchester City and would go on to win the FA Cup in 2010 and the Premier League in 2011-2012.
Barry has since played for Everton, where he was voted Player on the Season in 2015-2016 and West Bromwich Albion where he became the all-time leader for Premier League appearances.
Gareth Barry would also make 53 appearances for England and was a part of the 2010 World Cup squad that went to South Africa.

Jack Grealish
D.O.B. – 10th September 1995
Nationality – England
Aston Villa Statistics
Played: 2012-Present
Jack Grealish is a product of the Aston Villa Youth system after joining the club when he was six years old, back in 2001. Grealish, a life long Aston Villa supporter, was part of the clubs u-19 team that won the 2012-13 Next-Gen Series.
Notts County & Soccer Sevens
Notts County signed Grealish on loan in September 2013 on a youth loan deal until January 2014. After a successful spell, the loan deal was extended until the end of the season. The Solihull born midfielder went on to make 37 appearances for County.
At the end of that season, he made his professional debut for Villa when he came off the substitute bench for Ryan Bertrand in a 4-0 away defeat to Manchester City.
That summer he travelled with the Youth side to The Hong Kong Soccer Sevens competition. He finished the tournament as top scorer with six goals as Villa won the shield.
Grealish signed a new four-year deal in October 2014 and this was the season that he began to make a name for himself. After many substitute appearances, he began his first match for Villa in a 3-3 home draw against Queens Park Rangers, in a performance that saw him highly praised.
It was Wembley where he really made people stand up and take note. Grealish played a part in both goals, including an assist for Fabian Delph's winner in a 2-1 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Semi-Final. He played the entire 2015 FA Cup Final but Villa lost 4-0 to Arsenal.
The 2015-16 season was one to forget for both Grealish and Villa. The club was relegated from the Premier League for the first time in their history. Jack played in 16 games that season, all defeats, creating a new record for the most amount of defeats in a row for a single player.
20018-Present
Grealish had started to reach the potential many had believed he would. As you would expect, he was massively loved by Villa fans and therefore hated by those across the city.
On March 10, 2019, English football witnessed something they had not seen since the dark days of football. Grealish was assaulted by a Birmingham City supporters, who ran onto the pitch, during a derby match at St Andrew's. The assault didn't appear to hurt Grealish, as he laughed off the attack as the offender was dragged out of the ground.
It was Jack who would have the last laugh though when he scored the only goal of the game in the second half to give Villa the second-city bragging rights.
Grealish was named captain following an injury to James Chester in March, during a period that saw the club record a club-record 10 league wins in a row. This helped Villa into the playoff positions. Villa went on to beat Midlands rivals West Bromwich Albion and Derby County which gained them promotion back to the Premier League following a three-year-absence.

Rocking Chair Theologian
toward a more integrated faith
Cape of Courage
On "The Quilted Duck"
We Are All Witnesses
Vuelo del Alma
Copyright 2010 Julie Ann Benison
The banner for Rocking Chair Theologian, Phases, hangs in Ramoth House, the domestic violence shelter operated by Safe Haven Ministries. It was made as one of a pair (the other seen here) in honor of Safe Haven's 20th anniversary in 2010. When displayed together, these two quilts represent the commitment in Grand Rapids, Michigan, to end domestic abuse as Christ's love demands. Here is evidence that our community longs for the wholeness and integrity of our families. We are 20 years closer to having it.
Phases is an aid to meditation for women in shelter inspired by the cycles of grief and joy that mark a journey to wholeness. The struggle through darkness is not the end of the story, but a temporary reality. Where are you today? May you endure the struggle. May you be infused with the light of hope.

Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Quotes To Turn Yourself Into A Leader
Ahanaf Sakil January 29, 2020
Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was a Bangladeshi politician and one of the great leaders in the world, Also he is as known called the father of the nation. He was the first President of Bangladesh. Sheikh Mujib was born on 17 March 1920 Tungipara, Gopalganj, Bangladesh. His father's name was to Sheikh Lutfur Rahman and his mother' s name was Sayera Khatun. He was the third child in the family. He is popular with the title of Bangabandhu (Friend of Bengal) by the people of Bangladesh. Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman became a main leading figure in and eventually the leader of the Awami League, founded in 1949 as an East Pakistan (Bangladesh) based political party in Pakistan. Sheikh Mujib is credited as a significant figure in efforts to increase political autonomy for East Pakistan (Bangladesh) and later as the focal figure behind the Bangladesh Liberation Movement and the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. His daughter Sheikh Hasina is the current Prime Minister of Bangladesh and leader of the Awami League Party.
At the increasing of sectional tensions, he plots a 6-point autonomy plan and was imprisoned by the system of Field Marshal Ayub Khan for treachery. Sheikh Mujibur Rahman drove the Awami League to win the main majority rule appointment of Pakistan in 1970. Regardless of increasing a dominant part, the League was not welcomed by the decision military junta to shape an administration. As common defiance emitted across East Pakistan (Bangladesh), Sheikh Mujibur announced freedom of Bangladesh during a milestone speech on 7 March 1971. On 26 March 1971, the Pakistan Army reacted to the mass fights with Operation Searchlight, where Prime Minister-choose Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was captured and flow to isolation confinement in West Pakistan (nowadays Pakistan), while Bengali civilians, politicians, students, intellectuals, and military defectors were killed as a feature of the 1971 Bangladesh genocide. During Sheikh Mujibur's absence, numerous Bengalis joined the Mukti Bahini and, aided by the Indian Armed Forces, vanquished the Pakistan Armed Forces during the Bangladesh Liberation War.
After Bangladesh's freedom, Mujib was discharged from Pakistani custody because of international pressure and in January 1972, he came back to Dhaka. In a 2004 BBC survey, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was cast a voted the Greatest Bengali ever. 15 August 1975 Mujib was killed by rebel army officials during a coup. Check out the following Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman quotes.
1. This time the struggle for freedom, this time the struggle for our liberation. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
2. People cannot be bamboozled by slogans in the name of Islam and Muslims. Religious Bengali Muslims love their religion, but they will not allow political achievement by betraying religion. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
3. I am happy with my Bangladesh. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
4. When you play with a gentleman, you play like a gentleman. But when you play with bastards, make sure you play like a bigger bastard. Otherwise, you will lose. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Quotes
5. Whoever has communalism in his mind... is the equivalent of wildlife. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
6. No respect for the beggar nation. The country cannot be formed by begging from abroad. You have to make money within the country. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
7. People love when people love them. If you accept a little sacrifice, then the public can give your life. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
8. The people of East Pakistan will owe it to the million who have died in the cyclone to make the supreme sacrifice of another million lives, if need be, so that we can live as a free people. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
9. There are two aspects to our Bengalis. One is 'We are Muslims, and one is Bengali.' malicious and betrayal are in our blood. It is not possible to find this word in any language of the world, 'malicious (Bengali-Parasikatara)'. The next other wealth sees that melancholy is called 'malicious(Bengali-Parasikatara)'. Jealousy, hatred will be found in all languages, there is something in all the nations, but there is also 'malicious(Bengali-Parasikatara)' to the Bengalis. Brother, brother is not happy to see improvement. This is why all the qualities of the Bengali nation have to endure the oppression of others throughout their life. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
UNESCO recognised Bongobondhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's 7th March Speech as part of the world's documentary heritage, on 30 October 2017.
10. For the welfare of my countrymen is worth the life of a person like me or how much? I do not think that there is anything more that can be done to save the people of the oppressed nation. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
11. I have given you independence, now go and preserve it. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
12. Unqualified leadership, unscrupulous leaders and cowardly politicians never get together in the country for any work. In this, the country and its people are more devastated than service. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Quotes
13. Yes, but there is a difference. You see, I am a very poor sheikh. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
14. No prisons could ever stop me, but the love of people made me embarrassed. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
15. My country is an independent country. No one in India, America, Russia, Great Britain has the power to interfere with the internal affairs of my country as long as I live. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
16. You know, they can't keep me here for more than six months. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
17. My greatest strength is the love for my people, my greatest weakness is that I love them too much. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
18. Who is ready to die... No one can kill him. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Quotes
19. If anyone says fair things, we are more in number, even if he is one, we will accept his words. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
20. The movement is not the fruit of the tree. Movement cannot be done by word of mouth. For the movement, public opinion has to be created. Ideal for movement. The movement has to be a selfless activist. You have to be a sacrifice. And above all, people need to have organized and united support. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
21. Create human beings, not bureaucrats. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Quotes
22. I had a problem. In my habit, cut my beard itself. Probably I didn't pay any money barber brothers to cut my beards. The blade was all I had finished. When I went to buy a blade, I could not find the blade. Blades are not allowed to be brought from abroad. I didn't even try picking. I thought that must be found in Tian Shing. Such a large industrial area and marine port. In one store I found many old blades, but they could not cut beard anymore. And nobody buys them. People will not use things that are not made in China. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
24. Without cultural freedom, political and economic freedom is meaningless. Therefore, by focusing on the soil and the people, happiness and peace of the people and dreams and aspirations will develop in Bengal's own literary culture. - Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was one of the great leaders of the Bengali nation and Bangladesh. Without good leadership, don't achieve any success.

On Saturday October 18, the Finissage of the "Beauty In Hell" Project and the Vernissage of the 3 months Exhibition were held at the Ghisla Fodazione Ghisla Art Collection, Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art.
It was an honour to conclude the First Year of the "Beauty In Hell" Project and launch the most important Exhibition to date in such a high profile venue, spread between the works of great artists such as: Picasso, Mirò,Basquiat, Castellani, Fontana, Lichtenstein, Magritte, Mathieu, Christo, ecc: http://www.ghisla-art.ch/artists/.
I am glad to say that the Event was a great success with all 18 photos exhibited in the main rooms in the ground floor. Two photos, in their unique copy, became part of the Ghisla Collection and will be in permanent exhibition between its walls. The other 16 photos will stay on display until the end of the year, so if you have not seen the Beauty In Hell exhibition yet, you will find it here for the next 2-3 months.
– Tiziana Orrù & Graziano Bugin for the great photos of the Event!
– All the guests present that helped make it a great evening!
The nonprofit Fondazione Ghisla Art Collection was founded in April 2014, with the aim of making an artistic holding of international value available to the public, to be shared with all those who recognise art to be an indelible asset.
The collection has been created by the Ghislas, a husband-and-wife team impelled by a growing and eclectic passion for artistic expressiveness. The collection occupies a futuristic building that has just been built as a project by the Moro & Moro architectural studio of Locarno; it is located in the centre of the town just a few metres from the marina.
The works in the Fondazione Ghisla are laid out in eight rooms over three floors. Their layout is not determined by chronological rigour or by a division by the movements and trends that have characterised the art from the late 20th century up to today. Anyone entering these spaces immerses himself in the taste of Pierino and Martine Ghisla, who over the past thirty years have gathered perfect masterpieces from the Pop Art, Arte Informale, Conceptual Art, Abstract Art and New Dada movements… together with emerging artists who are perhaps less well-known to the general public. Their approach has been as though they were welcoming guests into their own home. Thus in the first room, one sees a Frank Stella in close dialogue with a Christo, while in the third room, Pierre Alechinsky and Karel Appel convey their "cobra" style to the candid geometric rigour of a large canvas by François Morellet, which in turn hangs next to two "organic" compositions by Jan Fabre. And so on. A way to draw the visitor actively into a reading and into the history of these works and their juxtapositions.

Trolleylijn 2 van Hermes (Breng) is een Arnhemse trolleybuslijn in de regio Arnhem Nijmegen, in de Nederlandse provincie Gelderland. Deze trolleybuslijn rijdt binnen Arnhem van het centraal station naar De Laar West.

Geschiedenis
Op 1 april 1950 werd een trolleylijn geopend tussen Hoogkamp (Schelmseweg), Willemsplein en Geitentenkamp (Schuttersbergplein). Het traject Willemsplein-Geitenkamp werd overgenomen van lijn 4 die maar 3 maanden als trolleylijn heeft bestaan. Op 7 oktober 1951 werd de lijn verlegd langs het station en op 11 januari 1953 van het Schuttersbergplein verlengd naar Monnikenhuizen (Wielewaalstraat). Op 3 juni 1956 werd de tak naar Hoogkamp overgenomen door lijn 5. Sinds 4 december 1960 werd vanaf het Willemsplein in de richting Velperplein via Gele Rijdersplein en Looierlaan gereden in plaats van via de Jansbinnensingel. Op 1 januari 1969 herkreeg de lijn de tak naar Hoogkamp van lijn 5.

Op 6 juni 1984 werd de tak naar Geitenkamp overgenomen door lijn 9 en de lijn weer beperkt tot Hoogkamp-Station. Op 21 januari 1987 werd de lijn van het Station verlengd naar Elsweide (Beverweerdlaan) via Willemsplein en Laan van Presikhaaf. Op 27 mei 1990 werd dit traject in de avonduren overgenomen door lijn 5 en vanaf 23 mei 1993 op alle tijden.

Op 2 juni 1996 werd de tak naar Vredenburg overgenomen van lijn 5 en werden de trolleybussen op de meeste uren vervangen door dieselbussen. Op 29 november 1997 werd de hele trolleybusexploitatie beëindigd. Een deel van de ritten liep verder in noordelijke richting via Bakenberg tot in Schaarsbergen. Plannen om op lijn 2 een duobus in te zetten, die vanaf Schaarsbergen als dieselbus en vanaf de Hoogkamp verder als trolley zou rijden, vonden geen doorgang.

Op 29 augustus 2010 werd de trolleybusexploitatie echter weer hervat op het traject Station-Hoogkamp (Schelmseweg). Wegens langdurige  wegwerkzaamheden was dit maar voor korte tijd maar na afloop daarvan kwamen de trolleybussen weer terug. Speciaal hiervoor werden een tweetal 12 meter trolley's uit 1990 aangehouden omdat het vervoer na de sluiting van het Diaconessenziekenhuis was gedaald. In 2012 werden deze veteranen echter vervangen door gelede trolley's die naar Hoogkamp echter overcapaciteit gaven.

Op 15 december 2014 werd de lijn verlengd van het Station naar De Laar Oost en De Laar West (Bredasingel) en daar exploitatief gekoppeld aan lijn 5. Op 10 december 2017 werd de trolleybusexploitatie op het gedeelte Hoogkamp-Station, zeven jaar na de herinvoering, beëindigd omdat het reizigersaanbod te gering was voor de 18 meter lange trolleybussen en het bedrijf niet meer over 12 meter trolleybussen beschikt. Door deze route over te dragen aan buslijn 9 werd de gelegenheid benut de rit van Schaarsbergen naar Arnhem te versnellen. Tegelijk werd de frequentie op de resterende route van lijn 2 tussen Arnhem Centraal en De Laar West verdubbeld waarbij de investering in de aangelegde bovenleiding meer tot zijn recht kwam.

Route
De lijn verbindt het Centraal Station/Stationsplein, het Velperplein, het Airborneplein, de John Frostbrug, Malburgen en winkelcentrum Kronenburg met De Laar-Oost en -West in Arnhem-Zuid. Aan het eindpunt De Laar West gaan de bussen over van trolleylijn 2 op trolleylijn 1 en andersom.

The Evolution of Humanity
Sun, 31 May 2009 04:49 UTC
Imagine that you are standing in a large room full of people. You are not part of the assembled crowd but are merely observing the activities and the people.
A large and grandiose party is in full swing. People continue to arrive all the time, swelling the already voluminous mass of humanity. A band plays in the corner, some of the people are talking and drinking while others dance to the music. As you wander around you notice that the people gathered in the room seem to have organised themselves into groups. As you listen in on the conversations that are taking place you learn that these groups seem to be organised by social status, racial type or simply those with a similar world view. Very clear however is the fact that there are those that are well dressed and seem to be well fed and there are those that appear to be rather more disheveled and materially poor.

Big Brother Digest: May 2017 - Technology Predictions Made in 2009 - Were They Right?
Richard Sawyer
Fri, 15 May 2009 11:11 UTC
© unknown
Eight years ago, in May 2009 MSNBC published a series of articles predicting what the world would look like in 2017. Their subheading was "Rapid pace of technology will mean wrenching changes in just a decade". 'Wrenching' changes have indeed occurred but the reality now is that the major changes our world has witnessed have been less due to technological change than to the Wars over diminishing food and water resources, the virus pandemic, cosmic bombardment and the global centralisation of economic conditions to solve the greater Depression.
In 2009 what seemed like relatively insignificant political and technological developments turned out to be the green shoots of today's Biological Environmental and Technological Convergence (BETC) Revolution. The development of Quantum nanotechnology storage systems enabled Governments to store massive amount of data on every type of communication between individuals. Every VMS (Voice Message System), call, video link, search, browse, in fact every single data transfer is stored, mined, assigned, matched and under the BETC Government control.
This author is one of many who managed to continue writing as the blogosphere removed the anonymity that citizens (now referred to as dissidents, militants, insurgents and terrorists) used to spread their warnings on the negative potential of the new revolution. Through biometric advances, having a unique CP (Citizen Protocol) address assigned to every individual regardless of the device they are interacting with, took time to get used to. I myself am one warning away from having my editing rights removed completely. Rather like the French 3 strikes law that saw the formation of initially a "new State agency [and later Global agency] that sent illegal file-sharers a warning e-mail, then a letter, and finally cut off their connection for a year if they were caught a third time."
How did we let it happen?
Connecting the Dots: A Pandemic Distracts as the World Government Picks a Fight
Sott Editors
© Notimex
Soldiers on the street and panic in the air. Are you familiar with it yet?
Batten down the hatches, grab your flimsy face mask!
Just as Sott.net editors were putting the finishing touches to the April's edition of 'Connecting the Dots' (a fairly standard month as months go here on the BBM), within the last five days the world has been brought to the brink (of what we are not quite sure) by something called "Swine Flu". At least, that's the impression you get when reading recent headlines. But as Sott.net readers know, there is always more to these episodes of mass hysteria than meets the eye!
Look further back into the month and you will see enough clues to figure out the nature of what we may safely call a World Government. Pay attention to details in the United States, the United Kingdom and elsewhere, and you may distinguish manufactured social and political conflicts. Consider it all within the context of Mother Nature's mysteries. Indeed, there is much to comment about this month. But, in the spirit of traditional journalism, let's start with the major headlines...
SOTT Special Report: The Flu Threat
Tue, 28 Apr 2009 06:55 UTC
Comment: Back in 2003 SOTT began collecting data on the alleged Flu Threat and produced the following report. We think that now is a good time to remind our readers of the history of the use of the Flu Threat as a means of control. We have added our updates since this initial report listing the reported outbreaks, the associated propaganda and fear-mongering, the main benefactors and the key scientific research that provide an objective antidote to the current hysteria.

Volunteers wear masks to protect themselves during the 1918 flu pandemic.
Influenza - "a human respiratory infection of undetermined cause" according to Webster's dictionary. Most people have at some stage in their lives felt its effects, and while the normal human virus is not lethal to humans there exists the possibility that lethal "mutated" strains can develop.
Each winter the flu virus makes its expected appearance, commonly known as the "Flu season". The standard government response is to commission the large pharmaceutical companies to manufacture vast amounts of a vaccine.
The vaccine is essentially a dose containing several, either dead, or alive but weakened, flu virus strains (among other things as we shall see). When introduced into the body these supposedly immunise us against those particular strains. However the vaccine does not cover all the possible Flu virus strains and if the predominant flu virus in any given season is not contained in the vaccine then naturally no protection will be afforded by the vaccine. Interestingly, this was the case this 2003/4 season, yet it did not stop the government from urging the public to "get immunised!"
While initially being recommended for the elderly and young, now it is advised that everyone who wants to avoid the flu should receive the shot. The question is, how much do you trust your government, and how much of that trust is warranted. As we shall see, there is cause to be highly suspicious of government advice. In regards to this years flu virus the Government Center for Disease Control has said:
Yahweh's A Member Of The GOP

Yahweh's 'fiery chariot'
Think about it, he has to be. Anger, Jealousy, covetousness, vengeance, extreme bias towards his 'chosen people' in the Israel-Palestine conflict and against literally everyone else in creation; all these are hallmarks of the politics of a die hard Republican. Well, we should probably say were hallmarks of a die-hard Republican. Nowadays they are also the hallmarks of die-hard Democrats, the two-party system having long since given way to the unifying power of "Christo-Judaism" and the influence of their representatives on earth - the Washington Neocons and their Zionist friends.

The ever stylish Mr PG arrives in Cyprus
My name is Guinn. Penn Guinn. Upon leaving my familiar environment of ice-cold Antarctica, I was determined to travel around the Earth in search of clues of the miraculous: that, as yet unidentifiable but eternally present spirit of the creative universe that resides above and below, within and without, permeates and penetrates all, but alas! is invisible to the untrained eye. But such a task is not difficult for one of Aptenodytes Forsteri genus such as I, who in the aforementioned inhospitable surroundings learned to distinguish, from an early age, the thousand different shades of white.
And so my seeking has led me to awareness enhancing journeys through the coastal Tel Aviv, the Italian Apennines, the French Riviera and Hendaye, the English Countryside. It was while spending some time with elderly British folks in my last travels that I heard about the island of Cyprus: a small troubled place shrouded in mystery, intimately connected with the birth of the Greek Goddess of Love and the birth of the Christian Orthodox church. Following some preliminary research, it dawned on me that both Aphrodite and graceful Mary would need to be dressed à la mode in order to fit in in modern day Cyprus. Not that I care too much for appearances you see. But wishing to blend in with the crowds, I spent the winter at my chilly home awaiting the unappealing molting of my pelage to take its course before setting off for the sunny island. Come springtime, all dapper in my new velvety plumage, I was ready for my next adventure!

Celestial Esoteric Stuff and The Socio-Political Nitty Gritty
A recent article on Sott.net about Alex Jones' possible negative influence on a man who shot three policemen in the US last week has generated some interesting commentary from readers and brought into sharp focus a question that goes right to the heart of the problems facing humanity today.
The article in question by Max Blumenthal of Alternet states that the 22-year-old gunman Richard Poplawski "was a neo-Nazi wannabe who railed against blacks, Jews, Zionists and gun control" and also seemed to find common ideological ground with Alex Jones. Poplawski appears to have been particularly incensed by Jones' reports that Obama was planning to institute a socialist dictatorship wherein all guns would be outlawed. While grouping Jones with White Supremacist Neo-Nazis may be doing the thing too brown, it is true that Jones has repeatedly stated that "the first step in establishing a dictatorship is to disarm the citizens."

The last week in March started with the coordinated call from Russia and China for a new non-national reserve currency, an idea that was greeted as one would expect with some derision until US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said he supported such an idea. We can only speculate that he forgot his role in this Act 2 of the international stage tragedy "Global Financial Crisis" and used his lines from Act 4 which has of course yet to come. In this Act the role of the US is to resist such calls.
The week ended with the G20 summit and more importantly with the G20 final communique which promises a dark future; for wrapped in the cloth of "free trade", a trillion dollars for the IMF and "trade finance" and the regulation of banker's pay is the formation of a global overseer, the Financial Stability Board and the announcement that "the era of banking secrecy (which means privacy) is over."
There is a great deal in the G20 final communique and what with the general goings on this coming week with the NATO summit following the G20 and US President Obama's visit to Ankara that we will be providing an analysis of the G20 summit and its context during the course of next week.
This week we take a closer look at who really benefited from the AIG bailout and the true size of the US governments financial commitments to the "Global Financial Crisis". With apologies to Winston Churchill and the fighter pilots of the Battle of Britain:-

Worlds clash in 'Once on This Island'
Office of Education Theater Company performs Broadway adaptation of Little Mermaid fairy tale April 11-13
@TheSunGazette
TULARE COUNTY – This month, Tulare County theatergoers have the opportunity to visit the Caribbean through a touching story of love and loss as told in the musical "Once on This Island JR." The production is an original adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's popular fairy tale, The Little Mermaid.
Through almost nonstop song and dance, this full-hearted musical tells the story of Ti Moune, a peasant girl who rescues and falls in love with Daniel, a wealthy boy from the other side of her island. When Daniel (played by Ali Pullom, Eleanor Roosevelt Community Learning Center) is returned to his people, the fantastical gods who rule the island guide Ti Moune (played by Allison Hart, Redwood High School)on a quest that will test the strength of her love against the powerful forces of prejudice, hatred, and even death.
In the opening number, the peasants describe their world – a world that is ruled by powerful gods and an island ruled by the wealthy "grand hommes." They explain that the peasants and the grand hommes belong to "two different worlds, never meant to meet."
Last year, Once on This Island enjoyed a revival on Broadway, winning eight Tony awards. The musical was created by the legendary Broadway writing team of Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty.
Other cast members include: Mama Euralie – Morgan LaLanne, El Diamante High School; Ton Ton – Job Whetstone, Mt. Whitney High School; Little Ti Moune – Elle Pinheiro, St. Aloysius School; Asaka – Allison Martin, El Diamante High School; Agwe – Parker Chalabian, Redwood High School; Erzulie – Emilie Walker, Redwood High School; Pape Ge – John Piper, El Diamante High School; and Andrea – Jessica Peters, Redwood High School.
The play will be shown at 7 p.m. on April 11, 12, and 13 with a matinee at 2 p.m. on April 13. All showtimes will be at the Rotary Theater, 330 S. Dollner St. in Visalia.

Taking a look at how the Non-Public 4 football brackets could be seeded.
So now that we have gone through and taken a look at the possible scenarios for the public school football playoffs, let's dive in to the non-public Group 4 playoff projections.
Instead of using a complicated formula of power points and the Born Power Index to seed the non-public playoffs, the NJSIAA decided to use something even more sinister.
Sorry, I used that line before, but I really like it and will die on the hill.
Non-Public 3 and Non-Public 4 will be seeded by a committee chaired by NJSIAA Executive Committee member Greg Bailey. Please, when you see Greg, ask him why Georgia tried a fake FG against LSU in the first quarter. He loves that question.
Non-Public 2 will be seeded by the same formula as the public schools.
There will be 5 coaches on the committee. The committee is basically left to their own devices, but they are supposed to use the power point ratings as somewhat of a guide (read: a tiebreaker if they can't agree).
The five-person committee will be Bergen Catholic athletic director Jack McGovern, St. Peter's Prep athletic director and coach Rich Hansen, St. John Vianney athletic director Richard Lamberson, Red Bank Catholic coach Frank Edgerly and St. Augustine coach Pete Lancetta.
We can debate if those are the right people for the committee, but I think it's a good start. Hey, Bergen and Peters were in the Non-Public 4 final last year, and maybe going forward that's a method that you use to select the committee members.
So let's do this. Let's talk about how I would seed the brackets if I was on the committee.
There are still games to be played….big games this weekend. St. Peter's Prep at St. Joe's is obviously huge (and may be played in a monsoon, apparently). Bergen Catholic/DePaul matters, and so does Don Bosco and Paramus Catholic, but to a lesser degree.
A few notes to start….
First, we have totally glossed over the fact that St. Peter's Prep has already clinched a share of the Super Football Conference United Red Division, and can win it outright with a win over St. Joes. That's some serious accomplishment. I had written that no one since the 2011 Bosco team had gone through the division unbeaten, and then Bergen did it last year, and now Peters has a chance to do it.
Like, really, a secret. Lean in close.
The regular season doesn't matter that much anymore.
I can tell this story now, but last year I remember talking to Dan Sabella at Paramus Catholic. They had some problems last year, but I remember saying to Dan, listen, all you have to do is win your semifinal playoff game and you've had a good year. Just get to the final and take your chances. (They lost to St. Peter's Prep in the semis).
This year, Bergen Catholic beat Don Bosco 14-13 in the regular season, but if in the playoffs, Don Bosco happens to beat Bergen….will anyone really care about that 14-13 game? Same for St. Peter's beating Bergen, if Bergen thumps Peters in the playoffs, well….
Why I say this is because when it comes to seeding this bracket, what matters the most is the semifinal round. What the coaches in Non-Public 4 want (but will never say publicly) is an easy first round game, then a home game in the semifinals.
They all want to be the 1 or 2 seed.
They can find a way to maneuver it so that they get an easier opponent for the semifinal round. Now that St. Joe's is in Group 4, well, there are 4 SuperPowers in Non-Public 4, but Paramus Catholic is still dangerous … yes, really. The Paladins are going to be someone's problem in the quarterfinals. And I'm most interested to see just where they fall in the bracket. Because there are probably teams they could beat here.
Also, keep this in mind. This is all about match-ups. Among these Five Superpowers (remember DePaul is in Group 3), there are just still some bad match-ups for some teams.
If I'm St. Peter's, I want to play Bergen Catholic again, maybe not Don Bosco.
If I'm Bosco, I want to play Bergen or Peter's, but not Joe's, and maybe not Paramus Catholic.
If I'm Joe's, man, I want Bosco, but maybe not Bergen. We will have to see about Peter's.
If I'm Bergen, I don't think I want to play Bosco again, but I would take Joe's.
If I'm Paramus Catholic, I just want to get to the semifinals and take a shot.
Because here's another little secret. In high school football, rematches usually go the same way as the first meeting. Bergen beat Peter's in the regular season last year. Then it beat them in the playoffs. Peter's beat Bosco in the regular season and again in the playoffs. Joe's beat Pope John in the regular season … and again in the playoffs.
It does happen, but it's rare.
One more thing. There will only be 10 teams in the bracket. Paul VI has opted out of the playoffs. They are 0-7.
St. Peter's is 6-2. They lost to St. Joe's Prep of Philly after having a big lead, and they lost to DePaul by three points. A loss, unfortunately, that is starting to look worse. They beat Bosco in OT, and don't give me well the game was close … St. Peter's won. Close doesn't count. It destroyed Paramus Catholic, and it clobbered Bergen Catholic 34-7. That win over Bergen Catholic is the Marauders trump card and if they beat St. Joe's, they are clearly the one seed. No question.
Bergen Catholic is 7-1. The loss to Peter's looks bad, just because it was so one-sided. The season opening win over Grayson of Georgia is nice, but Grayson is 6-2, and not a Top 10 national team this year. They beat Bosco by one, and St. Joe's by 4. They struggled against Pope John and won 14-6. They have been ravaged by injuries, but are still the defending champs.
St. Joe's is 6-2. The Green Knights loss to American Heritage doesn't look so great now either. They are 6-2 and Maxpreps has them as the No. 10 team in Florida. They lost to Bergen, and well, Bergen just has their number right now. They can say that Peters and Bergen each struggled with Bosco, and Joes licked them 31-10. They also waxed Paramus Catholic and Seton Hall Prep, and edged a healthy DePaul team by 7. But it can beat Peters and really mess everything up.
St. Augustine is 6-2. They play in the West Jersey Football League. It has losses to St. Joe's of Hammonton and State College Area out in Pennsylvania. It still has six public school teams on its schedule, and it hasn't lost to any. I'll just point out that North Jersey non-public teams don't play a lot of public schools.
Don Bosco is 4-4. The Ironmen are hard to figure. They beat Byrnes which is/was a good win at the time. Byrnes is 7-2 and MaxPreps says they are seventh in South Carolina. They beat West Orange and Pope John and now DePaul, badly. It can say, well, we beat DePaul and Peter's didn't. And maybe even Bergen if Bergen loses to DePaul Friday. It still has to beat Paramus Catholic though … something they haven't done in a while.
St. Joe's Metuchen is 6-2. It has eight public school teams on its schedule. They have losses to North Brunswick (who is 7-1) and Summit (who is 6-1). But again … North Jersey non-publics don't play a lot of public schools, because the talent disparity is so great.
Delbarton is 5-3. The Green Wave has won four in a row, and lost to DePaul in OT. Hey, Peter's lost to DePaul too. It also lost to Somerville, who is 8-0 and St. Anthony's of New York. The Wave has a good win over Morris Knolls and Seton Hall Prep. They play Clifton Saturday in a sneaky good game.
Notre Dame is 6-1. The Fighting Irish play in the West Jersey Football League and its only loss is to Allentown, who is 4-3. It's schedule is entirely public school teams.
Paramus Catholic is 2-6. They have lost 5 straight, and I honestly think the loss to Seton Hall Prep threw them totally off kilter. The last 3 games have not been close. Well, the last 4 games have not been close. They haven't scored a point in the last 2 games, and have been outscored 192-20 in the last four games. I've already written plenty about Paramus Catholic in the past and whether or not this is a conscious decision by the school to scale back its football presence.
Seton Hall Prep is 4-4 and really looked like one of the biggest surprises in the state after beating Paramus Catholic and Montclair. But the loss to Delbarton hurts and getting beat by St. Joe's. They have a big game against Pope John Saturday.
OK, so if I was going to seed the teams as of today, I would go this way.
St. Peter's Prep is the 1 seed. They beat Bergen. That's the trump card. But … if a loss to St. Joe's makes things real interesting, because then Bergen/Joe's/Peter's are all 1-1 against each other, and when that happens, you usually go by "recent result" which could drop Peters all the way to 3. But wait … the 3 seed may be more desirable.
Bergen Catholic is 2. I do think they beat DePaul, but if I'm them, I am rooting for Joe's to beat Peter's to get a shot at the one seed. It becomes a real messy argument if Joe's beats St. Peter's.
St. Joe's, as of now, is the 3. Again though, if they beat Peters they can move all the way up to 1. But here's the thing … you may not want to be the 1. Read on.
I make Bosco 4. I think they beat Paramus Catholic and finish 5-4. But I think you can make the case that Bosco could be anywhere from 4-6.
I think I make Delbarton 5. The win over Seton Hall Prep and close loss to DePaul sells me on the Green Wave. They deserve this. They may even deserve to be 4 and have Bosco come to them.
I put St. Augustine 6. But see what I mean? You might want to be the 3 seed, because, on paper (and I mean no disrespect) St. Augustine is an easier match-up for someone. And also though, St. Augustine should be rewarded with a first-round bye. Also (whisper voice) St. Augustine is on the committee.
I make St. Joes of Metuchen the 7. You'll see why in a minute.
I make Seton Hall Prep the 8. They have to be higher than Paramus Catholic, because they beat them head-to-head.
I make Paramus Catholic the 9. I do this for a couple of reasons. Honestly, they will probably be 2-7. Even though the committee wouldn't voice this, it would like to mitigate big travel times if at all possible. And I really like the idea of letting these 2 teams go at it in a rematch.
So then I make Notre Dame the 10. It's an hour ride from Notre Dame to St. Joe's of Metuchen, but trust me, it's even farther from Notre Dame to Seton Hall Prep.
So my first round would be….
Now, obviously, we have a long way to go. The games this weekend are enormous. Reporters always root for chaos, and St. Joe's beating St. Peter's would be chaos. If it does, I think I would make Bergen 1, Joe's 2 and Peter's 3. But we will have to see. We will have to do this again on Saturday.
And if I had to pick a winner out of my bracket? Well, let's wait until Saturday for that.

AFCON 2019 qualifying preview – Round 2
Posted on September 7, 2018 by Salim Masoud Said in Africa Cup of Nations 2019 // 0 Comments
No blockbuster ties but don't look away
This is a weekend which won't see any blockbuster ties. Perhaps the biggest match of the weekend is Uganda v Tanzania, the East African derby. That isn't a match because of the standing of the two sides – it's the verbal sparring in the lead up to the match that has fuelled some adrenaline.
That said, there are some banana skin ties with some giants on the road in unfamiliar territory which will enviably throw up atrocious pitches and a local climate favouring the team.
Algeria are away to Gambia under new coach Djamel Belmadi; Ghana are in Kenya; DR Congo in Liberia; Senegal in Madagascar; Cameroon in Comoros; Tunisia in Swaziland; Nigeria in Seychelles; and Mali in South Sudan. If anything, this weekend will give us some insight about how some of the minnows in the continent are developing.
Has Emmanuel Amunike shot himself in the foot?
New Tanzania coach Emmanuel Amunike wielded the axe on seven players after they arrived late to the national team camp. Simba's John Bocco, Jonas Mkude, Shiza Kichuya, Shomari Kapombe, the red-hot attacking midfielder Hassan 'HD' Dilunga and Erasto Nyoni, as well as Yanga's talented midfielder Feisal 'Toto' Salum, miss out and were replaced by seven others.
It was a brave move by Amenike, where a slap on the risk may have been a better option, and he hasn't had a U-turn despite the public outcry and negotiations with the Simba hierarchy. Captain Mbwana Samatta sidestepped the question during Thursday's press conference, stating he's in charge of leading the team rather than selecting it. Despite his reluctance the answer the question directly it dominated the press conference.
Tanzania's abysmal record on the road means the fixture has been made harder by the omissions. With three of the seven likely starters, and all seven likely to be Tanzania national team squad regulars, Amunike's call could come to define him as Tanzania coach.
Seedorf and Kluivert start their Cameroon reign
While the Cameroon job has seemingly been a constant rebuilding one in the last few years, the Seedorf and Kluivert come into a good, challenging situation. Their challenge is simply to steer a unremarkable side to defend the Africa Cup of Nations crown next year when they host it.
They have not arrived quietly. They have shown their authority early on by announcing they will be ignoring any players that play their football in China, triggering a mixed reaction. In doing so Benjamin Moukandjo and Christian Bassogog have missed out for the Comoros game. The former has been one of Cameroon's best players in recent years and the latter was the player of the tournament when Cameroon won AFCON last year.
There is a suspicion that Seedorf has shown a lack of understanding about the African game, about the African kid on the street that yearns to play football abroad, primarily for the betterment of himself and his family, by stating that "good young players don't compete in China or Asia". Seedorf has been described in the past as talking like a cabinet minister, and on this issue, he may just have shown how out of touch he is.
New dawn for Egypt
New Egypt coach Javier Aguirre has brought in his own backroom staff, and he will also look to bring a more entertaining style of football with him when Egypt face Niger. Former Spain and Real Madrid full-back Michel Salgado is part of the coaching staff and if he is as good at coaching as he is at punditry then Egypt will do very well indeed.
The relationship between Aguirre's predecessor Hector Cuper and the Egypt public had a spectacular high – World Cup qualification for the first time in a while – but it had always been uneasy, with the brand of football never truly convincing the fans. In the end, the ends didn't quite justify the means and a poor World Cup saw an impasse.
Will Aguirre release the shackles and are Egypt well-equipped to play without them? Cuper had a set template which he stubbornly stuck to, but Aguirre's task will be to trust a more talented crop of Egypt players to push the limits.

People Like Us, a folk album by Elder Sister Plum
In News on July 10, 2013 at 4:47 pm
Elder Sister Plum presents her first full-length studio album, 'People Like Us'.
Listen and buy it here:
CD / Digital Download
Composed of all original songs written over the past seven years, Tanya Semple considers this record to be her musical autobiography. You will hear wistful melancholy ballads followed by groovy toe-tapping tunes, moving into somber and hair-raising stories of sailors lost at sea.
Starting out as solo acoustic folk songs, her music began to take on a life of its own as she explored new instruments in the studio, collaborating with long time friend and musical companion, The Sun Harmonic (Kaleb Hikele).
The two Canadian musicians worked together on the performance and creation of an album that ranges in sound and emotion. Plum was thrilled to have Gary Simkins come by the studio to add some sweetness to four of the songs with his cello, bringing even richer textures to the folky craft.
Recorded in the spring of 2013 at The Townhouse Recording Facility & Sound Studio in Toronto, 'People Like Us' will enchant and excite listeners, being both a relatable and escapist experience. Elder Sister Plum would like to thank you for listening to her stories.
Moon Melody is a suitcase record shop & arts community. A garden of original homegrown music in the 21st century. Independent Canadian artists, rooted in the city of Toronto.

BS in Conflict Analysis and Resolution
#1-ranked Conflict Program in the US
Meet an Alum
Regardless of where you live, the career you choose or the path you take in life, you will encounter the increasing interconnectedness of our local and global communities. Unfortunately, with this interconnectedness among diverse groups of people, we are also seeing more social challenges arise such as misunderstandings related to identity and to cultural, language, racial, historical, territorial and political differences. These misunderstandings, if left alone, increase the risk of tension, divisiveness and conflict. Therefore, there is a rapidly growing need for better educated and trained leaders who understand how to work across and among different cultures and with unique and diverse groups of people.
The Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution, formerly known as the School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (S-CAR), is the oldest and largest school in the world for peace, conflict resolution and leadership-oriented studies, and is ranked number one in the United States. The Carter School's Conflict Analysis and Resolution (CAR) program places an emphasis on mentoring the next generation of scholars by focusing on skills development and practical activities both on and off campus, locally and globally. This program fully prepares students to become future leaders and changemakers able to lead, manage, transform and resolve difficult issues at all levels of society and in all environments.
Likewise, the Conflict Analysis and Resolution Program at George Mason University's Korea campus is the first of its kind in East Asia. It provides quality peace, conflict and leadership-oriented education opportunities to a diverse and international group of students from both inside and outside Asia. To do this, the CAR Program combines the best of various academic disciplines and philosophies of both the East and West, with a global perspective uniquely available in Songdo, South Korea, a city expressly created as an international education and business hub within two hours of all the major cities in East Asia.
Further enabled through the opening of the Peace and Conflicts Studies Center Asia (PACSC Asia) in 2019, students and scholars studying in the CAR Program in Korea are now able to gain hands-on global experience working with leading academics, business leaders, NGOs, and public and private organizations around the world. This experience enables them to conduct the cutting-edge research and practice that will further improve their skills and provide experience leading to successful and rewarding employment.
By completing part of the CAR Program at Mason Korea and part at Mason's home campus in the United States near Washington D.C., students will be able to draw on the talents of many interdisciplinary professors who have decades of scholarly and world experience.
If you are interested in being ahead of your peers, learning ways to become a better leader, and finding rewarding careers in a variety of fields at unique places around the word, you have definitely come to the right place.
Those who select the CAR Program have two unique degree paths to choose from.
a. The Bachelor of Arts Degree leverages tools, theories and concepts from across the social science and humanities disciplines in order to provide theoretical knowledge and important interpersonal soft and qualitative skills. Students choosing this degree must demonstrate intermediate level proficiency in at least one foreign language before they graduate, which is necessary to help them understand and work with diverse populations. Graduates of this degree find rewarding careers in local, state and federal governments, academia, research institutions and foundations, social programs and private and public organizations dealing with peace and conflict issues.
b. The Bachelor of Science Degree also leverages diverse tools, theories and concepts from across the social science and humanities disciplines. This degree focuses more on quantitative research methodologies without the need for foreign language capabilities. Graduates of this degree find rewarding careers in a vast number of career fields such as technology, local and international business, research and data analysis, consultancy and education.
Regardless of the degree path chosen, skilled Conflict Resolution and Resolution professors who are both scholars and practitioners, not only teach and mentor students, but also take them into the field both locally and around the world, bringing their expertise to the most difficult issues facing our society.
Regardless of the path chosen, all students who graduate with a Conflict Analysis and Resolution degree will be academically and professionally ahead of their peers and achieve successful careers through two different but complimentary career tracks.
a. "Specialist:" Graduates normally work in a vast variety of fields related to peace, conflict and social issues. Positions in these areas can be found in local organizations up to government and international nongovernmental organizations such as the United Nations.
b. "Generalist:" Graduates work in an unlimited number of job fields around the world, as all jobs in business, science and industry are now looking for young professionals with the key conflict management, mediation, negotiation and resolution skills required to work as a team and lead companies.
The CAR Program is pivotal in preparing you for the high-impact future career you hope to enter, and clearly separates you from other job applicants.
Together, the Conflict Analysis and Resolution Program offered by the Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution at Mason Korea and at Mason Fairfax are acting as a bridge for students to understand an increasingly complex and interconnected world, and are working to successfully and peacefully resolve issues that plague our global community. Due to the dedication of faculty and scholars, there is increasing hope for a brighter and more prosperous future led by the young students and scholars who graduate from this unique, dynamic and sought-after undergraduate program.
All students studying in the CAR Program have unique opportunities to:
Conduct independent research for credit through the Peace and Conflict Studies Center Asia (PACSC Asia) and in conjunction with professors and outside scholars
Participate in field practice trips and courses at various locations around the world including Eastern Europe and in Asia
Learn about problem-solving workshops, mediation, negotiation and facilitation
Volunteer to work with and assist diverse stakeholders on issues important to the general public
Gain needed work experience through diverse internships with various businesses, government organizations, and NGOs such as the United Nations.


The best time of year to visit Patagonia is during their summer season, which for the southern hemisphere is November through March.
For this Christmas season, my family and I are traveling to Argentina and Chile to visit a number of the current Mirr Ranch Group listings and to enjoy the unencumbered beauty of the landscapes and rich culture of Patagonia.
The trip will originate in Denver, where we fly overnight arriving in Buenos Aires (BA) in the morning to Ezeiza International Airport. While we can immediately shuttle from Ezeiza International Airport to Jorge Newbery Domestic Airport and take another 2.5 flight to Esquel, Argentina I always prefer an initial day to unwind in BA. The following morning we will fly to the border town of Esquel. We also routinely fly into Bariloche, Argentina and San Martin de los Andes, however, for this trip we are going to focus on the Chubut area of Argentina and the Aysén and Los Lagos regions of Chile.
Patagonia Sur will have a shuttle waiting for us in Esquel, where they will then drive us to Valle California (3 hour drive). Upon arrival in Valle California, we will live in the luxury accommodations provided by Patagonia Sur. Valle California maintains six luxury yurts, a cabin, and clubhouse to accommodate all qualified visitors who come to the property. Our stay will last three days and includes all meals and recreational activities offered by Patagonia Sur. These activities include fly-fishing, hiking, kayaking, white water rafting and a trip to Queulat National Park, one of the most spectacular natural features in the Los Lagos Region.
After taking in all Valle California has to offer, we will drive to Fundo Los Leones by way of the Austral highway (Carratera Austral) (7 hour drive) followed by a ferry across the Palena River. The Carretera Austral provides access to the Aysén Region of Chile from the Los Lagos Region. The windy partially paved highway takes you through forests, glacial blue streams, islands, and snow-capped mountains unseen by most of the world.
Fundo Los Leones is one of those secluded and pristine areas of Chile. It is a one of a kind property on the protected shoreline of the Piti Palena Fjord. Fundo Los Leones has the six charming cottages with each meal prepared by the staff on the property. The Palena River borders the south side of the property and is home to world- class fly-fishing and rafting. The marine life is also spectacular on the coast.
From the Aysén Region, we will head back east to cross the Andes Mountains and journey back into Argentina where we will visit El Palenque, a property just south of Corcovado (7 hour drive). El Palenque is at the foot of the Andes and is intertwined with six-kilometers of a private stretch of the Corcovado River. We will fish for one full day on this stretch of the river which will be led by a local guide in the region.
This will be the last leg of our trip through Patagonia. We will then head back up to Buenos Aires to experience its colorful culture for a few days before our big trip back home to Denver.
One of the biggest difficulties planning this trip was the available choices in the region; there are too many! From the opportunities with Patagonia Sur, or The Lodge at Valle Chacabuco in the newly formed Patagonia National Forest (spearheaded by the late Doug Tompkins) to the Eleven Experience, Chile is a paradise for the adventurer in all of us.
Patagonia creates lasting impressions on those who visit. Although Ken Mirr frequents Patagonia, the last time the Mirrs had the chance to explore the area together was in 2004. We are sure this time will be just as memorable. Upon our arrival back home, we will be sure to follow up and let you know how it went.
Although it may seem daunting to travel to Patagonia, the opportunities of exploration are endless. Qualified buyers have the opportunity to book trips to multiple Patagonia Sur properties and/or Fundo Los Leones. This is a once in a life time chance to experience the feeling of solitude and discovery in some of the most spectacular landscapes in the world.


If you are a GP registrar interested in trying out academic research or building on existing research skills, you may be able to undertake an academic post during your training.
In an academic post, you have the opportunity to complete a research project, gain teaching experience and attend relevant courses and conferences under the supervision of an experienced and widely recognised and respected academic (usually an academic GP).
An academic term is a great way of experiencing research and teaching in a supported environment and it can help you decide if you are interested in research, provide you with useful contacts in the research and teaching world and offer a different perspective on your clinical work. If you already have a developed interest in a research topic it can be furthered during an academic post.
Most importantly you could contribute to the evidence base for general practice and primary care.
Academic post applications open annually, visit the GP Synergy website for more information about academic training posts, the universities in NSW and ACT where academic research opportunities may be available, and how to apply.
Prospective academic registrars can also contact Professor Parker Magin parker_magin@gpsynergy.com.au or 1300 477 963.
