Top 10 Maya Angelou Poems
On this list, readers can find ten of the best Maya Angelou poems. They are beautiful, thoughtful and evoke her contemporary moment.
Maya Angelou was born in January of 1928 in St. Louis, Missouri. Her full birth name was Marguerite Anne Johnson but she came to use, "Maya" because of her little brother, Bailey Jr. It is a slurred combination of "my-a" and "sister." Throughout Angelou's life, she published seven autobiographies as well as several books of poetry. Her essays were compiled in three books and she is credited in a number of plays and television shows throughout her long career.
Maya Angelou's first autobiography, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, which became one of her most popular works, was published in 1969. It was the piece that brought her the recognition she had been searching for.
In the last decades of her life, Angelou accepted the lifetime Reynolds Professorship of American Studies. She was one of the only full-time African American professors on staff at the university. The late 1990s and early 2000s saw Angelou's campaigning with democratic candidates such as Hilary Clinton, and directing her first film, Down in the Delta. Maya Angelou died in May of 2014 after a period of bad health.
1 Still I Rise
2 Awaking in New York
3 When Great Trees Fall
4 Life Doesn't Frighten Me
6 Caged Bird
7 Equality
8 Woman Work
9 Phenomenal Woman
10 On Aging
At its most basic level, 'Still I Rise' is a poem about confidence and empowerment. The speaker stands up to prejudice and preconceived notions of who she should be. She determines that she is valuable and deserving of respect. The refrain, "I rise" is used throughout, gaining intensity as the poem progresses. Towards the end, the speaker proudly states that she is leaving behind her own history and the "nights of terror and fear". She is headed into the light, bringing with her the "gifts that [her] ancestors gave".
Awaking in New York
One of Angelou's shorter poems, 'Awaking in New York' uses imagery as its primary technique. The concise lines of this piece depict what it is like for one speaker to wake up in the city. They also briefly allude to the day to day mundanity of city life, using personification. Angelou juxtaposes these images of exhaustion and solitude with those of the dreams of children and how they are shared with "seraphim," or multi-winged angels.
When Great Trees Fall
'When Great Trees Fall' is dedicated to loss and misery as integral parts of the human experience. Through the metaphor of a falling tree, the speaker talks about important losses that shake one's life. In this case, the impact of the tree on the ground is felt throughout the forest. All the creatures shake and shudder. The lions "hunker down" and try to ride out the aftershocks.
Maya Angelou's speaker makes sure to address the fact that it doesn't matter how large one is, physically or mentally, everyone is impacted by loss. The poem ends optimistically as the speaker refers to the passing of the worst of these emotions and the possibility of peace blooming in one's body. It might come slowly, but it brings comfort.
Life Doesn't Frighten Me
This poem was published in 1993 and is about addressing one's fears head-on, understanding them, and then keeping them at a distance so that they do not control one's life. The poem is written from the perspective of a child, contains a lot of figurative language and a simple rhyme scheme.
'Africa' by Maya Angelou describes the plight of the African continent through the extended metaphor of a beautiful woman. By utilizing the metaphor of a woman Angelou creates a greater sympathy for the deep and long-lasting plight of the African people. Readers are better able to sympathize and empathize with a fellow human being. The suffering is more tangible, and more outrageous when a specific human face is the source of it.
This poem was published in 1983 in Shaker, Why Don't You Sing? and speaks as a number of Maya Angelou's poems do, on resilience. She was specifically interested in looking back on African American history through the metaphor of a bird. At the beginning of the poem, the speaker talks about a free bird. He goes wherever he wants and claims all areas of the sky. The second stanza is darker, as Angelou discusses a caged bird. The bird is imprisoned by "bars of rage" that make him hard to see. He can't function because of the overwhelming anger he has towards those who are keeping him captive. The only thing he's able to do is sing, longing for freedom.
A striking contrast is developed between the free and captive bird. The free bird does not understand its own privilege, seen through its claimed ownership over the sky. All while the caged bird is tired, tied down and far away from his dreams.
In this piece the speaker address themes of equality and discrimination. Through the use of metaphors and the striking refrain, "equality and I will be free" Maya Angelou emphasizes a universal longing for equality. The speaker asks the listener to stop covering their ears and their eyes and see clearly that the speaker, and all those like her, have been crying, asking for change. Eventually, the repetition of the refrain takes on the rhythm of a heartbeat or drumbeat. It is pounding over and over again, driving the speaker forward as she seeks out equal freedoms.
Woman Work
In this poem, a normal housewife goes through the motions of the everyday routine. She has to take care of her children, clean the house, mend clothes and go shopping for groceries. As the poem goes on it is her job to weed the garden and make sure that the whole house appears beautiful. All of her tasks pile up one after another, they are presented in a long list in the text. This emphasizes their number and the pressure they put on the speaker. They are not tasks or routines she wants to do or that she enjoys, but she is able to take some comfort from nature. She evokes the sun, the moon and the mountains as well as the "curving sky" to take her away from the drudgery of her existence and into a new, more stimulating world.
This piece, like others on this list, is about empowering oneself. The speaker wants young women to go out into the world and "kick ass," no matter who they are or what they look like. The speaker addresses the fact that she is "not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size" but society's norms do not matter when addressing one's worth. She can carry herself confidently, walking into a room "as cool as you please" and stand up to a man. In fact, she adds, they "swarm" around her like bees. No matter what anyone else says to her, she knows that she's a "woman / Phenomenally".
On Aging
This is a short poem that is addressed to those who might feel pity for an aging speaker. She asks them not to chatter at her, as she's listening to herself She doesn't want their sympathy, or for people to think that she is less than who she was in the past. In fact, she tells the listener directly that she is "the same person [she] was back then, a little less hair, a little less chin". But, she knows very well that she is "lucky" that she can still "breathe in".

Anya Wylde's second novel Penelope does not disappoint! I finished reading this delightful book today. Actually, due to recent events I haven't been able to read much of anything - however, last weekend I was able to read the 1st half of this wonderful book and today I finished it!
What surprised me most about this book was that it was nothing like Wicked Wager. I'm not disappointed, don't mistake me, I'm ecstatic but normally as a reader you fall in love with a book and an author and you read everything they write! I find they write in the same style, it feels the same throughout each book like the author has a specific outline they follow each time just to produce novels and they create new characters to fit the mold. It's what we readers have to accept if we want to read! I can be picky but if an author writes in a style I enjoy then I can ignore the fact that each of his or her novels can be predictable! Take Sabrina Jeffries or Amanda Quick - they are perfect examples of predictability and trust me, I love their books. You can tell when the hero and heroine will kiss for the 1st time or make love or when the heroine will run away from the man she loves before accepting that she can't live without him (Jeffries) and Quick, well sometimes I wonder if she just changes the characters names for her latest novels. Her earlier novels weren't like this.
I digress, Penelope felt different to me then Wicked Wager. I loved it! It was refreshing, lively, witty, adventurous, a true riot and a romance with a fairy tale happily ever after ending, the epilogue exactly what I needed! I can't forget the characters including a poetic highway man, loveable supporting characters, a maddening duke who you can't help but fall in love with and Lady Bathsheba, Penelope's pet G-O-A-T (you will understand once you read the book). Penelope is just plain fun! Wylde is amazing and she has found herself a loyal reader in me. Both of her novels are going in my stack of books that I will read again and again! They are definite keepers!
Genre - "Mad Cap Regency Romance"
Be sure to check out Wicked Wager if you haven't read it yet - delightful!!!

A Man Who Stood in the Gap to Close It
Evangelist Sunday Sandy Etukeren was a man who well understood the power of the gospel in his day. He effectively used gospel light to dispel the darkness of idol worship and plural marriage and with inspiration, fired people to aspire above limiting folkways.
He also used gospel incentives to foster unity, peace and goodwill among a people riven by mutual tribal distrust and conflict. Driven by strong convictions that all men are brothers, he saw with clarity through the tribal fog and drew the sword of the gospel against the tyranny of communal divisions and hatred.
In his time, as indeed now, everything in Nigeria was filtered through ancient and inflexible clannish lens. This malignant behavior robs Africans of so much capacity-building. The blight caused bloodletting in South Africa and stood in the way of halting apartheid in its tracks much earlier.
In Kenya and Zimbabwe, the story was just as grim. Rwanda and Sudan outdid all others in tribal fury, brutality and savagery. In Nigeria, the insanity wasted more than two million lives. Even now, since incoherence is steep deep in the country, homicidal tribal bigots run wild, turning large swaths of the country's northeast into an abhorrent killing field.
In colleges and universities I taught in Nigeria, certain positions were reserved for people from certain tribes, a shocking and offensive travesty known in Nigerian-speak as "son of the soil" syndrome. This was so even when such persons clearly lacked the required distinctions. Hence the mediocrity of these institutions, because policies are based on tribal ethos that fail to represent the standards and values of quality education.
The Annang and Ibibio people, for example, probably share a common origin. Unlike Americans and the British who are separated by an ocean, their boundary is contiguous. There's hardly a word an Annang speaks that an Ibibio does not understand.
With minimal differences, they share similar conventions, deities, foods, and worldview.
They also intermarry, yet the enmity between them is sometimes grim. And despite shared institutions, both claim they are different tribes.
Their unprincipled politicians manipulate tribal fault-lines and deceive the people so as to make personal gains. An opportunistic Ibibio chief for example, using the Nigerian civil war as cover, attacked and murdered prominent Annang intellectuals and politicians. Then taking advantage of the resulting vacuum, he promptly declared himself the paramount ruler of both tribes.
Before this, Annang politicians, seeking for breathing space from their more numerous Ibibio cousins, had aligned with Ibos (another of their neighbors) to run a party that ruled eastern Nigeria. The Ibibios who felt spited threw in their lot with a party in western Nigeria.
When the war broke out a Nigerian military officer from the western region who had unconcealed sympathies for the party of his tribe commanded the Nigerian troops. The Ibibio chief saw this as an opportunity to eliminate Annang leaders in retribution for perceived past antagonism. The ensuing slaughter, though on a small level, eerily anticipated the horrendous Tutsi-Hutu massacre.
Such reeling and dastardly betrayals breed animosity and tear asunder relationships woven over time and history.
Evangelist Etukeren saw in these bitter mangling of relationships a gap he could work to restore wholeness.
Evangelist Etukeren graduated from Bible College, Ukpom Abak in 1959. His father, who founded the Baptist and Apostolic churches in his village at Ekom Iman, had expected the son to take over from him. The young evangelist, being something of a rebel, instead opted to work for the Church of Christ Mission.
The Mission posted him to a remote Uruk Ata Nsidung village west of the Quo Ibom River where he served from 1960-1972.
Unlike present-day Nigeria, where prosperity theology supplants the truth, early Christian ministers saw their calling as service to the people rather than their pockets.
Upon arrival, the 22-year-old minister went to work with zeal. A versatile minister, he was a charismatic singer, a prolific songwriter, and an arresting preacher. With his gifts he soon won over the people. He secured a plot of land at the center of the village and put up a chapel.
Because he engaged in activities that spoke to the needs of the community, he was able to enlist the help of members and non-members in raising his church building. With them he dug sand from a nearby river to mold cement blocks and bricks for the construction work.
Seeing his devotion, a local philanthropist, Asukwo Akpan Obot, came to the aid of the toil-worn preacher and donated a piece of land for him to build a house to live in.
The Nigerian Civil War cut short his mission, and he returned home to take care of his family. The war had barely ended when he went back to his church and found that the he work he started had come to a standstill.
He contacted the village head and with a token fee secured several iroko trees for use in the building. He hired lumbermen and other craftsmen to saw the trees for use in roofing the building. Working like a man possessed, he soon completed the project.
It was a mark of his strength of character and faith that he lived harmoniously with a people equally dedicated to folk beliefs, fetish and idolatry. Many of those he affected are currently successful men and women in various professions.
He easily won the hearts of those he served because they saw his sincerity. While he served on his mission, his wife stayed home to farm and raise animals to support his work and his family. This freed him from temporal concerns and focused his energies on taking the gospel to other places like Etim Ekpo, Nkek, Ukanafun and Ikot Ekpene.
His heart was so much with the Annang tribe he labored in that when he tried to set up a church among his own home folks, he was poorly received. He took heart believing his mission lay with the Annangs whom he loved until he suddenly passed in 1990.
Today the people he spent his time uplifting in the gospel and education fondly cherish his memory. The sage who wrote the proverbs had it going for souls like Evangelist Etukeren when he wrote that, "the liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered himself."
Currently Etukeren's son sits as a sales executive in an auto company in the U.S. His grandchildren are attorneys and pharmacists, thus continuing in the family heritage of advocacy for the voiceless and healing for the afflicted.
Evangelist Sunday Sandy Etukeren consecrated his time, energy and resources to a higher calling because he knew what Rodney Johnson meant when he said, "Standing in the gap is our duty, our calling as Christians. God is looking for those who are willing to stand for those who cannot stand for themselves — are you willing? ... We are not here just to live our lives, we are here to influence. Influence our families, friends, community, city, state, nation, and world."

A clean, utterly modern, and super-stylish take on the flower crown, our orchid headpiece is an absolute showstopper. 3D printed from smooth matte nylon, it's a refreshingly organic take on a high-tech process. Three orchids and a spray of buds arch elegantly over the head- this can be styled a variety of ways, but we love it as a Frida-Kahlo-esque headband.
Loops have been added to the end of the crown so that a ribbon or chain can be added easily. Alternately, the loops can be used to insert bobby pins for a seamless look.

Deendayal's mantra of moving on with times is still relevant : Narendra Modi
Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi released 'The Complete Works of Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya' at a ceremony organized at Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi on 09 October 2016, and urged the people to walk on the path shown by the great thinker while discussing Pandit ji's principles, ideals and different aspects of his life at length. He said that the thought has strength of its own and Pandit ji's thoughts have been delivered to us in a capsule, for which he thanked everybody heartily. Greeting the people in advance for Vijayadashami and wishing them well, he said that this was a special occasion for the country.
The Prime Minister said that it was not difficult to pen the life, thoughts and achievements of a public figure because information about the personality are available in the public domain, but to do so for a personality who was publicity-shy even as he worked tirelessly for society is rendering yeoman service to the people, for which Shri Modi ji congratulated the team of Shri Mahesh ji and Shri Prabhat ji that put in place The Complete Works. Shri Modi said that these 15 volumes were a confluence of the trinity of his journeys of life, ideology and resolve and this moment of this day was to relish the offering of the trinity.
Shri Modi said that Pt Upadhyaya was an epitome of simplicity who, in a short span and brief political life, traversed the journey of establishing a political party, an ideology and a political system, which helped the BJP transform from being a party in the opposition to one that gave the people an alternative government. This is no mean feat, Shri Modi said, adding that this journey was made possible by the strong organizational foundation laid by Pandit ji.
Shri Modi said that Pt Deendayal Upadhyay had set an example by establishing a party that was organization-based. The journey from the Jana Sangh to the Bharatiya Janata Party is a unique chapter in Indian history, the credit for which goes to Pandit ji, Shri Modi said. The Prime Minister recalled that Shri Shyama Prasad Mukherjee would say that if he had two Deendayals, he could change the face of Indian politics.
The Prime Minister said that the 1960s saw the nation mull over who — rather than what — would succeed Nehru. It was a time, Shri Modi reminisced, when one party dominated the scene from the panchayats to Parliament, and there was no alternative. He said that studying the period between 1962 and '67 was crucial to understanding Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya. Even Dr Ram Manohar Lohia had recognized, Shri Modi said, that it was only because of the wide scope of Deendayal ji's vision that parties of various ideologies could come together to offer to the nation an alternative. Pandit ji had another virtue; he insisted on building a cadre base; he built a new type of political worker that did not come from a particular political breed, Shri Modi said. He said that Pandit ji created a cadre base where the worker had independent thoughts, was inspired by nationalism and dedicated to society. Pt Upadhyaya envisaged an army of political workers, Shri Modi said, to pave one's way to entry into politics. Therefore, Pandit ji strived to build and expand an organization based on ideology and character building of its workers, Shri Modi said.
Shri Modi said that Pandit ji built a cadre where the worker was committed to the organization and the nation was at the centre of his thoughts. Anybody may comparatively analyse the space where we are working together; indeed, analysts must assess the period corresponding to any ruling party, Shri Modi said. The party that Pt Deendayal ji toiled hard to build and the ideology he gave to the nation are the result of a penance that is ready to face any test even today; I say this with all my conviction, the Prime Minister said.
The Prime Minister said that Pandit ji would say, 'We would accept anything that enhances ourselves in prestige, science and culture. We are neither averse to modernity, nor are we beholden to orthodoxy and archaic traditions.' He said this was at the root of our thoughts, adding that the BJP comprised people who mould themselves according to the needs of the nation and society; this is why it could traverse the journey between being in opposition to being an alternative for governance enjoying the confidence of 125 crore Indians. He said that Pandit ji presented the views of a gamut from the Vedas to Vivekananda, from Lord Krishna to Mahatma Gandhi, in a modern perspective. Only that economics, politics and sociology can change the fortune of India that is tied to the roots of the nation, Shri Modi said, adding that no country had been able to progress while being detached from its roots.
Shri Modi said that Pandit ji emphasized capacity-building; he used to say that our defence forces must be competent and only then the nation can be powerful. Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya believed, he said, that every entity from the individual citizen to the country must build its competence. He said that the whole world was interdependent today, and it was imperative at this juncture that we built the nation strong on the basis of its essential philosophies; the people of the country must, he said, strive together to achieve this.
The Prime Minister said that the poor were at the centre of Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya's thought process. Pandit ji believed that the economic model of the nation must be bottom-up, not top-down.
He said that the BJP had decided to observe 2016 as the Year of Welfare for the Poor to realise Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya's dream.
Therefore, he said, no department of the government can forget that all its decisions, thoughts and programmes must be aimed at improving the lot of the poor. To ensure this, the Prime Minister said, the BJP is observing the centennial year of Pandit ji's birth anniversary as the Year of Welfare for the Poor.
Shri Modi said that society must develop all kinds of competencies. So that India attains the pinnacle of glory, he said, Pandit ji advocated seven ideals — harmony, diligence, equality, prosperity, knowledge, happiness and peace.
Paying tributes to the great thinker, the Prime Minister said that one should leave no stone unturned to see through the implementation of Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya's vision and resolved to dedicate one's life to Mother India.
Deendayalji presented an example of establishing a strong political party based on ideals, organizational strength and nationalism : Amit Shah
Addressing on the occasion BJP National President Shri
Amit Shah expressed his gratitude towards Shri Mahesh
Chandra Sharma ji, Shri Achyutanand Mishra ji, Shri Jawaharlal ji and their team for making The Complete Works.
The BJP president said that the year-long celebrations to commemorate the 100th birth anniversary of Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya were recently inaugurated in Kozhikode (earlier known as Calicut). He said that the BJP decided to observe the whole year as Pt Upadhyaya's centennial birth anniversary year, adding that the year will also be observed as the Year of Welfare for the Poor. He said that Shri Prabhat ji and his team have done an important job of presenting to the nation the 15-volume Complete Works… He said that it took 15 volumes to compile Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya's essays, speeches, statements, proposals and opinions on contemporary issues. The Complete Works…will benefit not only BJP workers, but also every public figure working for the nation, in enhancing their personalities, Shri Shah said.
Shri Shah said that the issues that Pt Upadhyaya had highlighted in his era have assumed diabolical proportions in the present times. Stressing the interdependence of human beings and nature, Pandit Ji had seen no conflict between developmental works and conservation of nature; rather, he insisted, a balance could be maintained between the two, Shri Shah reminded the people. He said that global warming, for example, is a problem that confronts us today because Pandit ji's ideas were not implemented in his time. If the philosophy of Integral Humanism had been pursued in developmental approach of the previous governments, a whole lot of problems that we are confronting today would not have arisen in the first place, Shri Shah said.
He said that Pt Upadhyaya has always been seen as a thinker, philosopher and organization builder, but the world should know that he was a successful politician, too. Shri Shah said that in the 1960s and 1970s, when the Congress was at the peak of its popularity, the Bharatiya Jana Sangh grew continuously, and when Pandit ji became its president in 1967, it was already bigger than several other political parties; not only that, it was also part of coalition governments in several states. Shri Shah said that Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji and Shri Bhaiyyaji Joshi had dedicated The Complete Works of Pt Deendayal Upadhyaya to the nation today, for which the entire team that made the compilation must be congratulated.

Who Picks the TIME Person of the Year and When Is It Announced?
By Danielle Letenyei
Dec. 13 2021, Published 11:17 a.m. ET
Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla, SpaceX, and several other companies, is the TIME Person of the Year for 2021. Who picks the TIME Person of the Year?
Each year, the editors at TIME pick an individual or group who was most influential throughout the year. The selectee appears on the cover of the magazine in December.
A "Person of the Year" has been selected since 1927.
TIME started identifying a newsmaker of the year in 1927. At first, the profiles were called the "Man of the Year" or "Woman of the Year," but the moniker changed to "Person of the Year" in 1999.
The Person of the Year's influence on the world can be for better or worse. For example, German dictator Adolf Hitler, Russian dictator Joseph Stalin, and Iranian religious leader Ayatollah Khomeini have all been selected.
Almost every U.S. president has been a Person of the Year selectee at least once, except for Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, and Gerald Ford. In 2020, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris shared the honor.
On some occasions, TIME editors decide to profile a class of people or inanimate objects for the Person of the Year recognition. For example, the honor went to Middle Americans in 1969, American Women in 1975, and The Endangered Earth in 1988.
No one is more influential than Elon Musk, TIME says.
"Person of the Year is a marker of influence, and few individuals have had more influence than Musk on life on Earth, and potentially life off Earth too," writes TIME editor-in-chief Edward Felsenthal. "In 2021, Musk emerged not just as the world's richest person but also as perhaps the richest example of a massive shift in our society."
TIME credited Musk for "disrupting multiple industries across two decades." Besides electric car company Tesla and space exploration company SpaceX, Musk has started a number of other companies including neurotechnology company Neuralink and internet company Starlink.
In the Person of the Year announcement posted on YouTube, TIME national political correspondent Molly Ball said that Musk has become ever-present across many different sectors.
"It's really hard to escape Elon Musk's dominance over so many things in American life right now," Ball said. "With a single tweet, he can control the stock market or the value of various different cryptocurrencies."
Literally almost anyone else would have made a better Person of the Year for TIME magazine than Elon Musk, but imma just pretend that it was Stacey Abrams. pic.twitter.com/2TstFrA0UG
— BrooklynDad_Defiant! (@mmpadellan) December 13, 2021
The TIME Person of the Year reader poll nominee is separate.
The TIME Person of the Year isn't to be confused with the TIME Person of the Year Reader Poll recipient. In 1998, the news publication started to poll its readers on who they would choose to be the Person of the Year. The poll's outcome doesn't have an impact on the editors' selection for Person of the Year.
Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro won the 2021 reader poll for TIME Person of the Year. Bolsonaro faces increased disapproval over how he handled the economy and for downplaying the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, TIME reports.
Of the 9 million votes cast in the TIME reader poll, Bolsonaro received 24 percent of the vote. Former U.S. President Donald Trump came in second with 9 percent of the vote, and frontline healthcare workers were third with just over 6 percent.

Gore High School Foundation
Gore High School celebrated its Centennial in 2008, 100 years of providing learning to the wider community of Eastern Southland. The school was initially established by the river, with a new school on the current site in Coutts Road in 1954.
The school has produced many outstanding graduates but moreover has equipped all its students with the knowledge, confidence, and skills to build successful lives and sound careers in a broad range of areas. The educational challenge of this modern information age requires new thinking, much initiative and imagination, as well as resourcing.
In 1998, the Gore High School Foundation was formed as a Charitable Trust by the Board of Trustees. The Foundation members include former pupils, the Rector, a representative from the PTA, the Board of Trustees, and a staff representative.
The 'Future Foundation Fund' was established to provide opportunities for students of today and tomorrow.
The purpose of the fund is not to provide money to supplement Ministry of Education funding, but to fund the school's own projects, with the aim of students becoming 'Connected Learners for Life'.
The Foundation provides scholarships at each year level for students who reflect some aspect of the school motto 'No reward without effort'.
The Foundation Scholarships have been very well received by the students since their inception in 2005. They are prestigious awards that sit at the very heart of the school. They do not necessarily belong to the most academic students as many awards do, but rather award the outstanding effort of individuals, independent of academic ability. With your support, the Foundation plan to extend these scholarships.

Kamil Václav Zvelebil (November 17, 1927 – January 17, 2009) was a Czech scholar in Indian literature and linguistics, notably Tamil, Sanskrit, Dravidian linguistics and literature and philology.

Life and career
Zvelebil studied at the Charles University in Prague from 1946 to 1952 where he majored in Indology, English, literature and philosophy. After obtaining his PhD in 1952 and until 1970 he was a senior research fellow in Tamil and Dravidian linguistics and literature at the Oriental Institute of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. He held the role of associate professor of Tamil and Dravidian at Charles University in Prague until 1968, when he and his family (including his son, the later archaeologist, Marek Zvelebil) were forced to flee after the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia. They fled to the United States at first, but later settled in the Netherlands.

During the late 1960s, he made many field trips including those to South India. From 1965 to 1966, he was a temporary professor in Dravidian studies at the University of Chicago in the United States and was a visiting professor at Heidelberg University between 1967 and 1968. Furthermore, he is very well known among the scholars in Tamil Nadu and has earned a permanent place in the educational syllabus of the Dravidian states.

In 1970, after more time at the University of Chicago, he was a visiting professor at the Collège de France in Paris. After more travel through European universities he became the professor of Dravidian linguistics and South Indian literature and culture at Utrecht University until his retirement in 1992.

Zvelebil also made the only known translation of the Tirukkuṛaḷ into Czech. It included some selections that appeared in Novy Orient, a Czech journal, during 1952–54.

He has authored numerous books and articles on Dravidian linguistics and literature.

F12. Background of the proposed guidelines for genetic counselling and testing in Japan
Ichiro Matsuda.
Kumamoto University School of Medicine, Kumamoto
In 1948, three years after the end of the Second World War, the Eugenic Protection Law was promulgated in Japan. The law is deeply coloured by pre-war eugenic thinking and it even perimitted the compulsion of eugenic surgery on specific individuals on request by a doctor (However, this has not been carried out since 1990 from a doctor�fs request). Under this law, legal abortion is permitted only if a family member has one of approximately 30 listed disorders, in which genetic diseases are not included. Fetal inborn error in itself was not legal grounds for an abortion: Most abortions done after prenatal diagnosis has been performed for socio-economical reasons.
In recent years people have felt eugenic ideas to be dangerous, and in particular the clause in the Eugenic Protection Law, �gThis law, from the standpoint of euegnics will prevent the birth of inferior progreny�h, and called for its revision. In 1996, the law was revised to become the Maternal Protection Law, and all eugenics was excluded. However, scientific progress, such as genetic test, gene analysis, prenatal diagnosis, in vitro fertilization and so on were given no attention, and genetic reasons for abortion are not touched on at all. Abortion is still done only for socio-economical reasons. In 1997, the Ministry of Health and Welfare established a Committee for Advances in Medical Technology Assessment in the section of Health Science Council where biomedical ethics, including that of reproductive medicine, is to be discussed. Guidelines for genetic counselling and prenatal diagnosis (1994) and guidelines for genetic testing, using DNA analysis (1995) were set up by the Japan Society of Human Genetics. The context of the guideline is similar to that proposed by WHO (1996), as introduced by Dr. D. Wertz et al. There are three main approaches; (1) prenatal diagnosis will be made on a voluntary basis only, (2) disclosure of genetic information, when necessary to avoid serious injury to other family members, must follow the judgment of the ethics committee of each institute, not that of the individual attending physician, (3) abortion in the 3rd trimester, for genetic disorders is illegal in Japan. The response to genetic testing at present among the general Japanese population is most important and the issues in question should be discussed openly and in detail.
I would also like to present the results of a survey I have conducted, which shows how the Japanese people view genetic tests. We have had replied from one thousand people between 20-50 years old, and still continue. Recently we opened a home page and more people can access it. 47% of replies were from medical practitioners (medical students, doctors and nurses, etc.) and 53% from the general public. 95% of the medical workers were aware of prenatal diagnosis and 74% of the public. This was the only question for which there was a significant difference between the groups, so for the rest of the questions I combine the results.
89% replied that genetic counseling during pregnancy was necessary. 93% would want to have a genetic test if there was a danger that the fetus had a genetic disease. 93% would want to give birth if that disease was light and treatable. If the disease was serious and there was little hope of treatment, 17% thought that they would give birth, 39% said they would want an abortion and 49% were undecided. Concerning abortion, 14% were absolutely against it, 44% thought it was up to the mother to decide, and 42% did not know whether to leave it to the mother. Concerning carrying out abortions, 25% thought that there should be provisions concerning the fetus, 69% thought that more debate was needed before altering the law, and 6% thought that there was no need for change.
In summary, genetic counseling is necessary and among the choices should be the offer of prenatal diagnosis. Concerning abortion a number of choices should be provided, with the decision left to the family, and ultimately the woman involved. About 15% raised objections to abortion. Even so people seem to feel that there has not been sufficient discussion of these issues within Japan. 94% thought that written informed consent was necessary when receiving a genetic test, and 84% wanted some kind of documentary information.
We asked about disclosure of genetic information within the family in the cases where either the person in question had undergone genetic testing, or where someone else in the family had. 50% replied that the family should be told in the case that the subject themselves had had the test, but 74% said that family information should be passed onto them. People did not want information about themselves passed on, but they did want to know that of other family members. In other words the instinct of self-protection works strongly in the case of disclosure of information, and hence rational examination of the issues is necessary, with specific rules on disclosure being set up for cases in which non-disclosure might lead to risk for someone in the family. On this point I believe that the thinking of WHO is correct.
Concerning the preservation of used genetic samples, 69% replied that they thought that samples should be preserved and 93% of these wanted some explanation concerning this preservation. In reply to the question on the use for other purposes, for example testing for other disease, 18% replied that samples should not be used for other than the original purpose, 12% replied that this use was OK, and 71% replied that use was OK if prior explanation was given. Thus, sufficient explanation and respect for the individual�fs opinion are important. Even so, 82% are not against their use in testing. Concerning the workplace, only 6.6% replied that an employer should know genetic information, with 15% saying life insurance companies should know.
Comparing our results with the WHO and the Japanese Society for Human Genetics guidelines we can see that these latter are supported by the majority of people.

Q: Android (Kotlin): FileProvider to share mp3 file I am coding an app that shows some mp3 files in a card view and I am trying to set a "Share" button to send the files to other apps, one by one. I am using FileProvider. I managed to share a text, but I can't do it with my files. I am accessing all the mp3 files in my external storage with a constructor, they are not mp3 stored in a "raw" folder in Android Studio.
inner class MySongAdapter : BaseAdapter {
    private val authorities = "com.example.loadmedia_sdcard_demo.fileprovider"
    private lateinit var mainAudio: File
    var myListSong = ArrayList<SongInfo>()
    constructor(myListSong: ArrayList<SongInfo>) : super() {
        this.myListSong = myListSong
    }

    override fun getView(position: Int, p1: View?, p2: ViewGroup?): View {
        var myview = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.mylayout, null)
        var song : SongInfo = myListSong[position]
        myview.textView1.text = song.Title
        myview.textView2.text = song.Author

        myview.share_button.setOnClickListener {
            val path = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this@MainActivity, authorities, mainAudio)

            val shareIntent = Intent()
            shareIntent.action = Intent.ACTION_SEND
            shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, path)
            shareIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION)
            shareIntent.type = "audio/*"
            startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share..."))
        }

The problem is inside val path, it is requesting a file.
val path = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this@MainActivity, authorities, mainAudio) // here is the problem

Any idea of how to do it? Thank you very much.

You declared mainAudio as:
private lateinit var mainAudio: File

However, you never assigned a value to it, before you tried using it here:
val path = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this@MainActivity, authorities, mainAudio)

You need to assign a value to a lateinit var before you try using it, otherwise you will get this exception.

Posted on May 16, 2014, 9:09 pm, by Moira, under Exhibitions I'm involved in.
On Saturday May 17, all five artists turn up for a discussion of our work. What makes an artist tick? A peek inside another creative person's process can often be enlightening.
Talks kick off at 2pm, Sat May 17.
Gallery Red is at 131- 145 Glebe Point Road Glebe. This is 500 metres up from Broadway.
Posted on May 3, 2014, 5:11 am, by Moira, under Exhibitions I'm involved in.
Last night I attended the opening night of my latest show Fruits of Uncertainty at Gallery Red, Glebe. The show also features my besties Martin Ison, Susan Dalziel, Tom Gillan and Tracy Johnston.
Installation shot of my pieces.
I"ve been doing this for 14 years, which I guess is adding up, but I still freak out before a show. I know I'm not alone there, although I certainly feel like I am at the time. Terrors about no-one showing up, and then those that do finding my work to be total crap, are the general visions crowding my head. Sigh. Of course that's not what happened. People were positive and there were many kind comments. The curation of the show, courtesy of Liz McCrystal of Gallery Red, was thoughtful and lyrical.
Next thing will be the Artists' Talk event, on Saturday May 17 @ 2pm. We'll all be cool as cucumbers, pretending we can talk eloquently about our process. Haha! We'll see about that.

The biggest problem with these options is that they cost you more money, and the last one damages your credit score.
Your next option is to make an effective DIY (Do It Yourself) System.
This system does not cost you any money, but weather it is successful or not is entirely dependent on you.
The first thing you must do is stop using your credit cards. If you are trying to reduce your credit card debt then you don't want to be adding to that debt by making more purchases with your credit cards.
It is vital that you get a copy of your credit report and resolve any mistake immediately.
Now create a budget and stick to it. Make sure you allow enough money for rent/mortgage, utilities, food, car payment, phone, minimum credit card payments, and other bills.
After you have created your budget, start looking for ways to save money.
If you are spending money every month on things that you don't have to have to survive such as cable, then you may want to cancel it for now or at least cancel some of the extras like movie packages. The money that you save can be applied to your credit card bills.
You can also save money on food by using coupons and doing comparison shopping. I am a cashier. I have seen people's grocery bill cut in half using these methods.
You can save money on your utilities by turning lights off when no one is in the room. Also by taking shorter showers and turning the water off while you're brushing your teeth.
You can also save money by bargain hunting.
You can save a lot of money and get good stuff at yard sales, flea markets, and thrift stores. Many times you can get name brand clothes that are like new for $5 or less!
Now take all of the money that you have saved this month and put it with the money that you have set aside for the minimum payment on your credit card that has the lowest balance. Send all of this money to that one credit card and pay your minimum payments on your other credit cards.
Continue doing this until that credit card is paid off. Then take all of that money and pay off the next credit card that has the lowest balance.
This is called the "Snowball" effect. Keep using this method until all of your credit cards are paid off.
It may take some time, but by using this plan you will end up free from all that debt, and stop all those annoying phone calls and threatening g letters.


It's a tough and challenging market out there at the moment and no matter how persuasive, compelling or brilliant you may be, it's can be difficult to build strong and lasting relationships.
You can either let it grind you down or you can step up and stand out by developing presentation and communication skills that build strong relationships, lead motivated and inspiring teams and offer value at all levels of the business.
Depending on how you feel that day, emotions such as stress can come through and influence how you use your voice, your body language, your energy and the ways in which you connect to others.
Being aware of how these pressures can affect the way you present yourself and the techniques you need to turn this around will help you overcome even the most challenging situations.
Make sure you are always in the right state to lead, present, pitch or sell. This takes preparation.
First impressions count. Dress well and appropriately for your position.
Stay centred and grounded. This helps you stay in control and make appropriate responses to whatever arises.
Learn to take deep breaths.
Helps you to relax and be in control.
Adds warmth to the tone of your voice so you sound friendly and approachable.
Helps you think quickly and clearly.
Can completely change your body language so that you appear more relaxed and open.
Enthusiasm is infectious and if you are genuinely enthusiastic about your products and services you can make others excited as well.
If you force enthusiasm, you may appear stressed or inauthentic to others. If this happens you need to develop ways to quickly 'up' your energy.
Do something physical, such as walk briskly, jump up and down, and at the same time actively focus your attention on feeling positive.
Laugh (if circumstances allow). A good laugh changes things immediately.
Help other members of your team – a positive team is a successful team.
Visualise or try to remember personal positive experiences.
Breathe deeply and enjoy the sense of control it gives you.
It doesn't matter whether you are selling a product, running a meeting, or presenting because it is not about you; it's always about the client, the team or your colleague. Focus on their needs.
Know the features of your products and services and how they will benefit each client.
Choose language that they can connect to. Listen for key words to help them understand.
Use stories or case studies to create pictures with your words. Facts often get forgotten and may not get through to your audience.
Use gestures to describe how things operate, or give them a hands on experience.
Don't work to convince them, get them involved and excited about the benefits of your products.
This tough market is perfect for you to rise to the challenge. Use this time to develop your presentation and communication skills so you can be the one to step up and stand out.

Q: Proof of Power Rule for Limits using epsilon-delta The power rule for limits is,
$\lim\limits_{x \to a} \left[f(x)^n\right]=L^n$
It seems that the typical approach to proving this rule is by using induction in combination with the product law for limits. But is there a way to prove the power rule using the epsilon-delta style of proofing? I can't find a single resources online that discusses this.

A: If $\lim\limits_{x\to a}f(x)=L$, then there is a $\delta_1>0$ such that if $0<|x-a|<\delta_1$ then $|f(x)-L| <1$, and hence $|f(x)|<1+|L|$ (the point here is that if a function has a limit, then it is bounded in some small interval around that point).
Now, let $\epsilon>0$, and choose $\delta_2>0$ such that if $0<|x-a|<\delta_2$, then $|f(x)-L|<\epsilon$. Define $\delta:= \min(\delta_1,\delta_2)$; I claim this works. So, suppose $0<|x-a|<\delta$ now. Then,
\begin{align}
|f(x)^n-L^n|&=\left|[f(x)-L]\sum_{k=1}^{n} f(x)^{n-k}L^{k-1}\right|\\
&\leq |f(x)-l|\sum_{k=1}^n|f(x)|^{n-k}L^{k-1}\\
&\leq \epsilon \cdot \sum_{k=1}^n (1+|L|)^{n-k}L^{k-1}
\end{align}
Now, that big ugly summation term, let's call it $M$. Whatever it is, it doesn't matter; it is just some finite positive number depending only on $L$ (the key point is it doesn't depend on $\epsilon$).
Thus, what we have shown is that there exists an $M\geq 0$ (namely $M=\sum_{k=1}^n(1+|L|)^{n-k}L^{k-1}$) such that for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a $\delta>0$ such that if $0<|x-a|<\delta$ then $|f(x)^n-L^n|\leq M\epsilon$. This is entirely equivalent to proving $\lim\limits_{x\to a}f(x)^n=L^n$.
If you have the "desire" to finish off proofs with an $\epsilon$ in the end, then I invite you to reword this proof to make that happen.

The idea of the proof is to use the familiar formula to factor $f(x)^n-L^n$ as a product of $f(x)-L$ and some function which is bounded. Since $|f(x)-L|$ can be made small, if you multiply by something bounded (i.e you have control over how big it is), the result is still "small" (in the grand scheme of things). Hence, $|f(x)^n-L^n|$ is also small. In other words, the crux of this proof is that
\begin{align}
\text{small}\cdot \text{bounded} =\text{small}.
\end{align}

EU Economic Governance in Action: Coordinating Employment and Social Policies in the Third European Semester
Tilburg Law School Research Paper No. 14/2014
22 Pages Posted: 21 May 2014

Date Written: May 20, 2014
New economic coordination has changed the landscape of EU governance (Amtenbrink, 2012). Its impact on the EU's social dimension is topic of political and scholarly debate. Some tend to argue that the EU has lost track of its social aspirations (e.g. Janssen, 2013; Watt, 2013; Clauwaert and Schömann, 2012), while others are more optimistic in their search for a new space for social Europe (e.g. Bekker and Klosse, 2013; Vanhercke, 2013). This paper adds to this discussion by analysing the interaction between four socio-economic coordination mechanisms joined within the European Semester 2013. Surveying the interaction between separate coordination mechanisms matches the notion that different governance modes are at least interrelated or even 'yoked together' (Armstrong, 2013; Trubek and Trubek, 2007). Using qualitative content analysis techniques, the paper addresses the interaction between the coordination mechanisms, both at the stages of target setting and of recommendation-giving to individual countries. The conclusion is that new economic governance is characterised by integrated socio-economic coordination, incorporating employment and social issues within economic coordination cycles, especially at the phase of giving recommendations. However, this does not necessarily mean that social-policy recommendations stemming from an economic coordination cycle always constrain the EU's social dimension.

TRIUMPHANT RETURN: Kisorio wins Ndakaini Half Marathon as Chesir rules the women's category
ERICK OCHIENG'
Former Philadelphia Half Marathon champion Mathew Kisorio and 2010 World Youth 30000m champion Gladys Chesir are the new winners of the 11th edition of UAP Ndakaini Half Marathon in Muranga County.
Kisorio, fresh from winning the Safaricom Bondo 15 kilometre Road Race last weekend, clocked 1:04.50 to lift the men's category title in his first attempt of Ndakaini yesterday.
Likewise, Chesir, who was participating in the Ndakaini Half Marathon for the first time clocked 1:05.37 to win the women's title. That was her first ever half marathon race.
"I am glad to have made a come back after after a two-year ban which was frustrating," said Kisorio, 25. "I used that absence to prepare well and I am happy it is paying off."
HILLY TERRAIN
The 2011 berlin winner added that he wants to now "run a few races in Kenya including the Masai Mara and the Standard Chartered Nairobi International marathons before I start looking for road races abroad."
Chesir beat other seasoned athletes like Peninah Arusei and Ines Chenonge to win the women's category under chilly, foggy Ndakaini weather.
She said the the hilly terrain made the race tough.
"I have been taking part in the 3000 metres and 5000 metres races for long but today I have embarked on half marathon to slowly introduce myself to full marathon races which I want to take part in soon," said Chesir who was third in the Iten 10-kilometre race last month.
Once she is back at her Global Training Camp base in Iten, Chesir said she will embark on preparations for the 2015 World Cross Country contest.
The UAP Insurance Managing Director, James Wambugu was happy at the turn out and said they registered 3,600 athletes for this year's race.

Sometimes there is a freight train stopped on the tracks. The tracks split the town, dividing it into one half and the other. On the one side, there is school. On the other, there is the little green park and your grandmother's house.
There are two ways to get around a stopped train. Over, and under.
You can go over by the bridge. The bridge is very far away, blocks away, and when you are nine you prefer not to walk that distance. Plus, the truth now, the bridge is high and gives you vertigo. The bridge is really made for cars but there is a walkway along one side with a railing that is steel but still looks flimsy. The railing triggers a temptation to jump, which you find disconcerting, a new sensation that still terrifies you, that will soon lose its novelty but will never completely desert you, even in thirty years when you press your sweaty face against the thick windows of the Sears Tower Skydeck and push, gently, with your palms.
The other way around the train is to crawl under. Who would crawl under a train? train could fire up and roll at any second. A train could also stand still for ten minutes, or twenty, or thirty. Ten minutes seem like thirty, or an hour, or a day, when you are nine years old and hungry and there is peanut butter on the other side. But the train could roll at any second.
When you are not alone, you will generally wait for the train to move on. There are ways to pass the time with company: talking, tic tac toe, hangman, talking. You can sit in the grass alongside the tracks and pull blades, knot them into rings, flick them at the other person.
You could wait for the train to move, but there is no telling how long it will sit there on the tracks. The engine is a dot on one horizon, the caboose not even visible on the other. The train is like a graffitied wall before you. You feel panic welling up. Recalling it thirty years later, you still feel the shortness of breath: get out, get out, get out. Weak daylight grays the shadows under the boxcars, making the space beneath not uninviting. But the train could roll. It could roll now. It could roll in five minutes. The longer you wait, indecisive, the greater the chances it will roll. And you can't wait. The wait is forever. You can't.
So you go under the train.
The muscles in your back and neck tighten and you don't breathe and it's so much farther to crawl than it looks. The shadows are black when you get under there and it smells of metal and oil and dust, and the tracks are greasy, the ties are dirty and splintery and there's gravel that sticks to your hands. Being under the train is like being underwater. Everything's slow and silent, the silence predicting the inevitable giant huffing of the engine fire, and once there were two trains stopped and you went under them both. And once you lost your tortoiseshell headband and went back for it because it was new, and your throat was closed while you did it as you thought stupid stupid, that you were going to die.
Nobody knew you went under. Nobody saw. It is your one secret you never told. You went under, and under, again, never able to wait, each time playing another chip of luck, and the train never smashed your head, the train never rolled, and in your dreams, now, you still go under.

Google Privacy Blocks Websites from Tracking You
This seems like a step in the right direction … Although it is a little bit weird that it has Google's name on it, yet isn't actually a Google product.
Privacy has moved into the public focus in recent years. Initiatives like Mozilla's Do Not Track Header try to improve user privacy on the Internet. Google Privacy is a Firefox add-on that tries to enforce do not track on popular websites. The name may suggest that the add-on has been created by Google but that is not the case. It is likely that it concentrated on Google in the beginning, and that support for other websites have been added later on in development.
Google Privacy currently supports Google, Bing, Yahoo, YouTube, Facebook and Ask. The basic idea behind the add-on is to modify links on those websites to remove tracking functionality from them. It should be noted at this point that the sites still have options to track users through other means, for instance with JavaScript running on the site or analysis of web traffic.
First thing you may want to do after installing the add-on and restarting the browser is to look at the options it provides.
General options are displayed on the left and site specific options on the right. The extension by default displays small icons next to each link that indicates whether the link is a tracking link or not. Green icons indicate links that respect the privacy, while red icons indicate those that do not.
Both the original link and its modified version can be displayed at the same time. It is alternatively possible to hide tracking links automatically so that only safe links are displayed on the supported sites.
The websites listing can be used to enable or disable tracking on links that point to the same website, and to block the tracking of every click on links on the web page instead. The latter could have an impact on the site's functionality though.
If you are concerned about your privacy online, you might want to take Google Privacy for Firefox for a test drive.
The add-ons concentration on six major companies limits its reach significantly. It is therefor recommended to install additional extensions to make up for that limitation. RequestPolicy is a good start, or the excellent NoScript add-on.

Вагнер Силва де Соуза, по-известен като Вагнер Лав е бразилски футболист, нападател. Най-резултатният чужденец в историята на ПФК ЦСКА (Москва) с над 100 попадения за "червено-сините". Лав е най-резултатният играч в Главното московско дерби с 10 гола. Има 20 мача и 4 гола за бразилския национален отбор по футбол.

Клубна кариера
Стартира професионалната си кариера в Палмейрас през 2002 г. През 2003 г. помага на тима да се завърне в Бразилската Серия А. Също така е повикан в младежкия национален отбор на Бразилия, с който участва на Панамериканските игри. През лятото на 2004 г. е закупен от ПФК ЦСКА (Москва) за сумата от 6,2 млн. евро. Дебютира в мач с Нефтчи Баку, влизайки като резерва на полувремето и отбелязвайки попадение. В първия си полусезон при "армейците", Вагнер отбелязва 9 гола в 12 срещи и измества от титулярното място Дмитрий Кириченко. Вагнер оформя нападателно дуо с Ивица Олич, а в отбора са и сънародниците му Даниел Карвальо, Дуду Сеаренсе и Жо. През 2005 г. Лав вкарва гол на финала на Купата на УЕФА и помага на ЦСКА да победи Спортинг Лисабон с 3:1 и да спечели европейския клубен турнир. Същата година, както и през сезон 2006, нападателят става и шампион на страната.

През сезон 2007 става голмайстор на ЦСКА, заедно с Жо. На 12 юли 2008 г. Вагнер вкарва хеттрик за едно полувреме на Спартак Москва, а ЦСКА побеждава вечния си враг с 5:1. През целия сезон бразилецът вкарва 20 гола, включително и 4 срещу ФК Москва на края на първенството. Така той става голмайстор на Руската Премиер Лига, както и голмайстор в турнира Купа на УЕФА. През 2009 г. формата му спада, а на негово място започва да бъде налаган младият Томаш Нецид. В средата на годината се завръща под наем в родния си клуб Палмейрас. Вкарва 5 гола в 12 мача, преди в началото на 2010 г. да се присъедини към Фламенго отново под наем. Вкарва 2 гола в дебюта си срещу Бангу. Във "Фла" Лав става голмайстор на първенството на щата Рио де Жанейро и вкарва общо 23 гола през сезона.

На 1 август 2010 г. прави повторния си дебют за ПФК ЦСКА (Москва) в дербито срещу ФК Спартак Москва. Лав вкарва и победния гол за своя тим. На 26 септември 2010 г. година бразилецът вкарва своя гол номер 100 за ПФК ЦСКА (Москва). Така той става първият чужденец, който е член на Клуб Григорий Федотов.
На 17 октомври 2010 г. Лав вкарва гол номер 900 за ПФК ЦСКА (Москва) в шампионата на Русия. Оформя тандем със Сейду Думбия, но ЦСКА не успява да се пребори за титлата и остава на второ място. През лятото на 2011 г. интерес към него има от Порто. През сезон 2011/12 Вагнер изразява желанието си да се върне в Бразилия и в началото на годината подписва с Фламенго. Там прекарва един сезон, като напуска поради финансовите проблеми на клуба.

На 12 януари 2013 г. ръководството на Фламенго потвърждава, че Лав ще се завърне в ЦСКА Москва. Престоят му при "армейците" не е дълъг, тъй като Вагнер напуска след половин сезон. Третият му период в ЦСКА е кратък, като през лятото на 2013 г. подписва с китайския Шандонг Луненг. През 2014 г. става носител на Купата на Китай.

През 2015 г. играе за Коринтианс като с 14 гола в 31 двубоя помага на тима на спечели титлата на Бразилия. На 14 януари 2016 година Вагнер Лав подписа с Монако. Периодът му във Франция обаче е неуспешен и още през лятото на 2016 г. Лав напуска в посока турския Аланияспор. Тимът се спасява от изпадане като завършва на 12-о място, а Вагнер става голмайстор на турската Суперлига с 23 гола в 28 двубоя. Следва трансфер в Бешикташ като за една година записва 18 мача и вкарва 6 попадения.

През 2019 г. нападателят отново облича екипа на Коринтианс, но е далеч от най-добрата си форма и се разписва само 5 пъти в 28 срещи. През юли 2020 г. преминава като свободен агент в казахстанския Кайрат и става шампион на страната.

Национален отбор
От 2004 до 02007 г. е част от националния отбор по футбол на Бразилия.

През 2007 г. печели Копа Америка, отбелязвайки 1 попадение в турнира. Последния си мач за Бразилия изиграва на 21 ноември 2007 г. срещу Уругвай.

Death toll reaches six and nearly 36 people are injured in the incident.
On March 14, a foot overbridge near the Times of India building at Mumbai's CSMT collapsed. The accident took place at around 7:30 pm and accordingly, rescue operations were undertaken. The bridge was a connection of CSMT's Platform Number One and the footpath near Times of India building.
As per the primary reports, six people have been reported to have died in the accident and over 36 people have suffered injuries. The injured have been moved to St George and GT hospital. At around 7:30 pm, the commuters were on their way back to the home when suddenly, a part of the bridge fell down. As per the local public, the bridge was crowded and mainly consisted of elderly people.
Maharashtra Cabinet Minister Vinod Tawde said that the bridge wasn't 100 per cent hazardous and the municipal corporation had made some recommendations to repair the bridge. He added that Railways along with the municipal corporation will conduct a joint-investigation regarding the accident.
Surprisingly, as per the locals, the bridge was not in bad condition and still a part of the foot over bridge collapsed. This certainly has once again raised the question of safety of the bridges across Mumbai. The bridge was constructed in 1984, about 35 years ago.
Meanwhile, Railway Ministry stated that the bridge 'was of BMC' and still have offered their help to the injured:
Foot over bridge connecting CST platform 1 north end with B T Lane near Times of India building has collapsed. Injured persons are being shifted to hospitals. Traffic affected. Commuters to use alternate routes. Senior officers are on spot.

The reports regarding casualties are yet to be confirmed. Police along with fire brigade have reached the spot and rescue work has begun. Reportedly, the bridge that remains will be demolished overnight. Avoid driving between CSMT & Crawford Market. Travel via P.Dmello Road or Kalbadevi Marg. Emergency services are on active in Rescue operations.
