Magical Moments: Park Ji-sung vs Portugal (2002 FIFA World Cup)
Kuala Lumpur: When Korea Republic's Park Ji-sung arrived at the 2002 FIFA World Cup Finals he was already a well-established and highly regarded member of the Taeguk Warriors squad.
Indeed, with the Koreans sharing the tournament's hosting duties alongside regional rivals Japan, much was expected of both Park and the rest of Guus Hiddink's squad ahead of their campaign against the world's elite. Neither were to disappoint.

Stardom was Park Ji-sung's destiny, says former coach Engels
Kuala Lumpur: Park Ji-sung's place in the pantheon of Asian football is unquestioned but, while the midfielder made his name at the FIFA World Cup and winning titles in Europe, it was with Kyoto Purple Sanga that he took his first steps as a professional.
German coach Gert Engels handed Park his debut with the J.League club and tells the-AFC.com about the formative years of one of Asia's greatest ever players.
When Gert Engels talks about Park Ji-sung, the same characteristic is mentioned time and again: stability. From the moment he first set eyes on footage of Park playing for Myongji University, it was the youngster's unerring approach that stood out for the former Yokohama Flugels and Kyoto Purple Sanga coach.
Expert's View: Asia's Greatest Players in Spanish Football
Kuala Lumpur: Over 120,000 votes have already been cast on Asia's greatest exports to England, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands. This week we turned to Spain's La Liga to review the candidates for the Continent's best representative.
Unlike the Premier League, Serie A, Bundesliga and Eredivisie, the success stories of Asian footballers in Spain belongs to a more exclusive cast, often due to the challenging nature of the country's footballing landscape.
To help us study this select group of players, we have enlisted the go-to-guy for all things Spanish football, Sid Lowe.
Asia's Greatest Players in Spanish Football
Kuala Lumpur: It's home to some of the game's biggest clubs and many of the greatest players, not to mention one of world football's most compelling rivalries.
La Liga, the top division of Spanish football, holds a place in the consciousness of fans throughout the globe, and it is also a nation which has played host to some standout players from the world's largest continent.
In increasing numbers, Asian players are flocking to Spain, with some of the continent's brightest prospects now making it their first port of call in European football.
With La Liga resuming this week, we invite you to decide which Asian player has made the biggest impact in Spanish football.
Here are our nominees:
Asian Classics: England's Lineker recalls that night against Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur
London: Ask Gary Lineker, or any of the England players for that matter, what they remember about the night on June 12, 1991 when England played Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur and they will say one word: "Humidity".
Coming straight from the wind-blast of winter in Wellington (where it snowed the day later) into Kuala L was a shock for most players and the England captain Lineker - although more 'acclimatised' than most - was equally shocked.
"I got a few that night," he remembers modestly of his four-goal haul, but it was the backstory to the game that was to play out for the next 12 months.
Markaz Balatah secure first Palestine league title
Al Ram: Markaz Balatah claimed their first ever Palestine league title after defeating last year's champions Hilal Alquds 4-1 on Friday to secure the championship with two rounds remaining.
The win took Markaz Balatah to 45 points, giving them an unassailable seven-point lead over second-placed Markaz Shabab Al-Am'ari, who defeated Al-Ahli Qalqilya 6-1.
Vote for your best Asian team at the FIFA World Cup: Goalkeeper
Kuala Lumpur: With international football on hiatus until later in 2020, the-AFC.com looks back at some of Asia's greatest performers at the FIFA World Cup and asks you, the fans, to vote for the Best XI.
To select the candidates for each position, we have reflected on match data from FIFA World Cups dating all the way back to 1966 and presented a statistics-based approach to highlight the players who have shone brightest on the biggest stage of all.
We start our series of articles with the three candidates in contention for the all-important number one jersey. With a combined 11 FIFA World Cup editions between them, the trio boast a wealth of experience at the global showpiece. So, review the nominees and then choose your favourite goalkeeper to helm the rearguard for this all-star XI in the poll below.

Throwback Thursday's with Davros Zuek!
Welcome to Throwback Thursday's with Davros Zuek! Incase you had No idea that this site was all about The Walking Dead and the groups fabulous adventures, you have come to the right place my friend! Never watched The Walking Dead? Don't worry I have got you covered. So it is time! Drum roll please!
Glenn (Steven Yeun), at the urging of Dale (Jeffrey DeMunn), finally tells the group that the Greene family's barn is full of walkers. The group inspects the barn, and Shane (Jon Bernthal) believes they should clear the barn, but Rick (Andrew Lincoln) believes they need to get Hershel (Scott Wilson)'s blessing since they are still guests on his property. Shane criticizes Rick for continuing the seemingly pointless search for Carol (Melissa McBride)'s daughter Sophia, infuriating Daryl (Norman Reedus). Later, Maggie Greene (Lauren Cohan) confronts Glenn about revealing the barn's secret to the group, but Glenn says his personal well-being is more important than her affections. Carol tries to stop Daryl from searching for Sophia alone, but he later comes back to show her another Cherokee rose blooming, helping to restore Carol's faith they will find Sophia. Elsewhere, Rick confronts Shane about his defiant attitude. The two argue until Rick exclaims that Lori (Sarah Wayne Callies) is pregnant. As Rick leaves, Shane congratulates him, but is shocked and scared by this revelation. Rick approaches Hershel about the walkers in the barn, but Hershel refuses to allow them to harm the walkers. He, Maggie, and Jimmy (James Allen McCune) bring Rick to a forest swamp where two walkers are stuck. Hershel insists that if Rick's group is to stay on his farm, they must treat the walkers as people, and shows Rick how to snare and lead the walkers back.Meanwhile, Shane confronts Lori about her pregnancy, believing himself to be the father. Lori denies this, and Shane storms off, but Carl (Chandler Riggs) stops him, insisting that they stay and search for Sophia. Dale (Jeffrey DeMunn), witnessing this, warns Andrea (Laurie Holden) about Shane's erratic behavior, and then distracts the others long enough to take the weapons from the camp and to hide them in the swamp. Shane discovers the missing weapons and tracks down Dale, demanding he return them. Dale gives in to Shane, but warns him about losing his humanity. Shane replies that they are "pretty much dead already". Shane arms the rest of the group and they converge on the barn just as Hershel, Rick, and the others return with the snared walkers. Shane screams that walkers are not people and shoots one of the captive walkers before breaking the locks off the barn doors. Walkers start to file out, and Shane, Andrea, T-Dog (IronE Singleton), Daryl, and Glenn execute the zombies while the others watch. At the last moment, Sophia (Madison Lintz) emerges from the barn, dead and zombified. The group is paralyzed with shock and sadness, unable to act as Sophia walks towards them. Only Rick is able to step forward and shoot her.
With all the walkers subdued from Hershel Greene (Scott Wilson)'s barn, Hershel demands Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and his group leave the farm. Rick confronts Shane (Jon Bernthal) regarding his actions leading to this, but Shane considers Rick as delusional as Hershel. The group decides to bury the walker bodies of Hershel's wife and stepson as well as Carol (Melissa McBride)'s daughter Sophia, while burning the rest of the walkers. They hold a makeshift memorial service for Sophia, but Carol refuses to attend. She falls into a deep depression, going off into the woods to pull up flowers, including a Cherokee Rose that has been a sign of hope for her. Shane finds her and helps return her to the camp, apologizing to her that he had no idea Sophia was in the barn. Hershel throws out his wife's belongings and then disappears. His absence is not noted until his younger daughter Beth (Emily Kinney) collapses and goes into a catatonic state. Hershel's family believes he may have started drinking again. As the others tend to Beth, Rick and Glenn (Steven Yeun) travel to a nearby town to look for Hershel. Dale (Jeffrey DeMunn) talks to the others to try to get a sense of Shane's actions. He later speaks to Lori (Sarah Wayne Callies) about Shane's erratic behavior, his suspicion that Shane had killed Otis to escape a walker horde, and his fear Shane may kill someone else soon. As Beth's condition worsen, Lori asks Daryl (Norman Reedus) to drive into town to check on Rick, but Daryl refuses, saying his days of searching for someone are over. Lori opts to go alone, but en route, her car hits a walker and is overturned.In the town, Rick and Glenn find Hershel alone in a tavern, drinking and lamenting the loss of his family members. Rick eventually convinces Hershel to return, but as they are about to leave, two men from Philadelphia enter the bar—Dave (Michael Raymond-James) and Tony (Aaron Munoz). They reveal that Rick's goal of Fort Benning may be overridden and try to goad where the group's farm is, looking for safe haven. Rick refuses to disclose the farm's location, and shoots them both before they fire back on him. The episode ends with the remaining group burning the rest of the walkers.
Lori Grimes (Sarah Wayne Callies), having gotten into a car accident while trying to find Rick (Andrew Lincoln), fends off two walkers and makes her way towards town. Back on the Hershel farm, the rest of the group discover Lori's absence. Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride) attempts to ask Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) go find Lori, but learns he was the one who let her go alone to find Rick, and no longer wishes to be anyone's "errand boy". Daryl berates Carol for not minding her own business. Carol leaves to find Shane Walsh (Jon Bernthal) and explains Lori's absence. Shane is able to find her, and lies to her that Rick has returned to the farm to get her to come back with him. When they return to the farm and Rick is not yet there, Shane admits to Lori he was more worried about her unborn child, inadvertently revealing her pregnancy to the rest of the group. Meanwhile, Andrea (Laurie Holden) consoles Hershel's daughter Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and tells her to be strong for her sister, Beth (Emily Kinney), who is still in a comatose state. In town, Rick, Hershel Greene (Scott Wilson), and Glenn (Steven Yeun) prepare to leave after shooting down Dave (Michael Raymond-James) and Tony (Aaron Munoz), when a three-man search party arrives outside the tavern looking for Dave and Tony. Rick tries to profess self-defense, but the search party refuses to accept this, leading to a standoff. Rick's group escape out the back of the tavern, leading to gunfire between the groups that attract a nearby horde of walkers. The attackers cease fire and attempt to escape, but one, Randall (Michael Zegen), ends up impaling his leg on a fence. Rick's group decides to save Randall by yanking him off the fence. They blindfold Randall and return to the farm. Hershel immediately operates to save Randall's leg, but he states he sustained nerve damage and will not be able to walk for a week. Rick's decision to return with Randall is met by skepticism from Shane who believes this to be a risky decision. Rick says that once Randall is well enough, they will release him far enough away from the farm to keep its location unknown; Hershel backs this plan up, telling Shane that Rick's group will have to leave the farm should they do otherwise. Glenn attempts to distance himself from Maggie, telling her that their relationship caused him to lose his focus during the shootout in town. Dale Horvath (Jeffrey DeMunn) continues to ask the others about Shane, and is shocked that Andrea seems to side with Shane that Rick has refused to accept the reality of the situation. Lori speaks to Rick about what Dale has told her regarding Shane, including the threats he made towards Dale and his involvement in Otis' death. She also tells Rick that Shane believes her child is Shane's, and that their affair was not a mistake. Lori warns Rick that Shane is dangerous.

Staff absences cost council millions

Barnsley face Exeter tonight
Footbridge costs spiralling
THE cost of the new footbridge which will be built over Jumble Lane crossing has gone up by £600,000.
It was initially thought the Market Gate Bridge would cost £5m, with Network Rail contributing £2m towards that cost.
But council papers show the cost has gone up to £5.6m - an increase of 12 per cent.
An engineering problem with the angle of the bridge has meant the cost of the project has increased.
Council leader Sir Steve Houghton said: "The costs have gone up because the bridge has had to be realigned across the junction in a different way to what we first anticipated.
"It's still going to be the same bridge, but we've had to change the angle of it and the points at which it crosses the crossing, the space it leaves for trains, etc."
The new bridge will act as a 'gateway' into the town centre, taking people from the Market Gate car park into the heart of the new town centre scheme, meaning the level crossing will be closed to vehicles and pedestrians for good.

The structural sensitivity of NMR chemical shifts as computed by quantum chemical methods is compared to a variety of empirical approaches for the example of a prototypical peptide, the 38-residue kaliotoxin KTX comprising 573 atoms. Despite the simplicity of empirical chemical shift prediction programs, the agreement with experimental results is rather good, underlining their usefulness. However, we show in our present work that they are highly insensitive to structural changes, which renders their use for validating predicted structures questionable. In contrast, quantum chemical methods show the expected high sensitivity to structural and electronic changes. This appears to be independent of the quantum chemical approach or the inclusion of solvent effects. For the latter, explicit solvent simulations with increasing number of snapshots were performed for two conformers of an eight amino acid sequence. In conclusion, the empirical approaches neither provide the expected magnitude nor the patterns of NMR chemical shifts determined by the clearly more costly ab initio methods upon structural changes. This restricts the use of empirical prediction programs in studies where peptide and protein structures are utilized for the NMR chemical shift evaluation such as in NMR refinement processes, structural model verifications, or calculations of NMR nuclear spin relaxation rates.


(Feb. 14, 2016) — "The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people." Martin Luther King, Jr.
When rational environmentalism became radical environmentalism in the 1970's, the aggression AGAINST the rural landowner has grown to an all-out war ON the rural landowner, enforced by ever-growing, ever-expanding federal agencies that have morphed into a Nazi-like, heavily-armed police force. A way of life on the range that grew out of the American West and raised the protein that Americans consume has been determined by the environmentalists and the government to be an anachronism and passé, in favor of the creatures and the plants. Legal grazing and water right allotments, with the force of law, have been unilaterally overturned by federal agencies, irrespective of the law of allotments, protected by U.S. Supreme Court decisions. Allotment fees have been raised by several factors and grazing and water permits have been reduced or eliminated. Private lands have been saddled with massive buffers and conservation easements, or outright confiscation. Due process is a mirage as many landowners have found out the hard way.
The government, at the behest of the radical environmentalists, has decided to turn the American West into a private reserve for flora and fauna where no human can go. Much of America has become off-limits to any human activity. Ranches and farms are being seized and raided by government, or are being forced out of business by government actions. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Endangered Species Act (ESA) are the tools that government, the environmentalists and lawyers use to do their dirty work. The individual landowner is helpless when the all-powerful government sets its sights on a rancher or farmer.
That's right. The environmentalist's stated goal is to move "man" out of the rural areas and into big cities with mass transportation, where they can walk or ride their bicycle to work. No cars. Cars are bad. National and international environmentalists have seduced the U. S. Government to pass legislation to further that goal and they are well on their way to achieving it.
Those that live in big cities and are dependent on government for just about everything are all for shoving "man" off the land to join them in their dependent cities. Thanks to endless government and environmental propaganda on the airways, in newspapers, in our public schools and our liberal colleges, the general, uninformed public thinks it's a great idea.
People always say that times change and they do, but not so when you are raising America's food and protein. It takes a lot of rangeland and water to raise cattle and sheep. It takes a lot of flat land to raise crops. If we give the land all away to the plants and animals and drive the ranchers and farmers out of business, what will Americans eat?
In the West, range wars were fought over water and grazing rights and fencing off the open range. Many people died in those wars. Then, it was private landowner at war with other private landowners or settlers who were fencing off the land for farming. Now the war is private landowners against the government.
But what the GOVERNMENT giveth, the GOVERNMENT can taketh away.
From the middle of the 1800's to 1934, the government allowed virtually unrestricted cattle and sheep grazing on unreserved public lands. These grazing "rights" were called allotments. Then in 1934, it was determined that the government should better manage unreserved public lands and passed the Taylor Grazing Act of 1934 that provided for the regulation of grazing and water rights. Currently, there are some 182,000,000 acres of public land under grazing allotments. 182,000,000 acres is larger than the State of Texas.
As we said, it takes a lot of land to raise cattle and sheep. The government allotments allowed ranchers to expand their herds on other than private land holdings. Those allotments came with water rights because you can't raise cattle and sheep without water. Under the Taylor Grazing Act, the allotments were actual contracts with ranchers and were good for ten years, but renewable. The ranchers had to pay grazing fees during the life of the allotment contract. Grazing cattle and sheep on public lands became a necessary and vital component of feeding a growing and hungry nation.
Along came environmentalism in the 1970's and grazing cattle and sheep on the "public's" land just wouldn't do. Environmental laws were passed that mandated the government to take back the grazing and water rights on public land from the ranchers in the interest of "protecting" the environment and the protection of endangered or threatened species. The environmentalists were intent, with government's help, to re-wild America and they didn't care that it was eliminating one of the vital components of feeding this hungry nation, land and water. To facilitate their goal, the government started dramatically raising allotment fees, or canceling allotment contracts at the end of the ten-year term. Unreserved public land for grazing and water rights was evaporating right under the ranchers' noses.
Over the last several decades, small, local skirmishes, sometimes violent, started erupting in different parts of the West in response to the government and environmental land grab, which led to the Sagebrush Rebellion in the 1970's. The skirmishes started to grow in size which culminated in the Bundy Ranch standoff in 2014 between 200 heavily-armed BLM agents and a couple of hundred private citizens carrying guns. A shooting war where private citizens would start dying in the desert for all to see at the hands of federal agents wouldn't play well with public opinion. The event was widely covered by the news media and the government wisely stood down.
Emboldened by the success of the Bundy Ranch standoff, Ammon Bundy, son of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, with the help of a bunch of rag-tag armed militia, took over the Malheur Wildlife Preserve in Southeastern Oregon. They came there in defense of Oregon ranchers Dwight and Steven Hammond, who ended up in jail on a trumped-up arson charge at the hands of the BLM. The Hammonds had continuous run-ins with the BLM over grazing, water rights and back-burn wildfires. The arson charged appeared to be a way for the BLM to get even.
By now, most of the public knows the Oregon armed standoff has ended. One man was shot dead by law enforcement and the rest have been arrested. Those arrested will probably spend some considerable time in jail. The federal court in which they will be tried will not be sympathetic, nor will any jury of their peers. It was a lose-lose proposition unless their martyrdom triggers more rural Americans to stand up and be counted. We have described the Oregon standoff on the NARLO website on a dedicated web page HERE.
The battle in Oregon may be over, but the land war is just getting started.
But this isn't the end of the story in the West. The government may have won this battle in Oregon, but they have only incited greater anger in Western landowners. Where that goes is anyone's guess, but from our perspective and the reading of the tea leaves, it does not appear to end peacefully.
If the literal translation of Clause 17 is true, then Ammon Bnndy, Wayne Hage and all other Western ranchers are right in their demand for the federal government to cede the public land back to the states and cease and desist government's attack on the ranchers and farmers.
The issue is far from settled and this is what has given rise to the current conflict. When the government was reasonable in managing the unreserved federal lands, everything went fairly smoothly. But when government started clamping down on the ranchers' legal contract rights to government allotments in the name of environmentalism, the smooth-running relationship between rancher and government evaporated and a land war has ensued.
When in a war, and we are in a war with the government, there are going to be all kinds of twists and turns and skirmishes in that war. The Oregon standoff was just one of the twists and turns. There will be many more to come as the wall between government and the citizens gets higher and higher. It has to come to a head eventually. We can only hope the outcome will be in favor of freedom and the Republic, but it is not a sure thing.
There are millions of Americans that still believe in individual, unalienable rights and want the government to stay the heck out of their lives. Unfortunately, the government has shoved its ugly head in every "tent" and some of the people are beginning to balk, a totally predictable reaction to rising government oppression. The Oregon armed standoff was a symptom of the people's resistance to that oppression, not a cause.

Q: Is this function periodic ? $f:[-30\pi,30\pi] \to [-1,1]$ $f(x)=\sin x$?
Is this function periodic ? $f:[-30\pi,30\pi] \to [-1,1]$ , where
$f(x)=\sin x$

Now , obviously $\sin x$ is a periodic function , I am asking this question just because according my to definition of periodic function :
A function $f$ is said to be periodic if for some constant P , it is the case that
$$f(x+P)=f(x)$$ fo all values $x$ in the domain.
Now if I take $x=29\pi$ (which is in the domain of the function) , then I must have $$f(29\pi + 2\pi) = f(29\pi)$$ or , $$f(31\pi)=f(29\pi)$$ But this is not the case as $f(31\pi)$ is not defined .
So, I concluded that the given function is not periodic.
Could someone please let me know whether I am right or not , and if not , where did I go wrong ?
Thanks !

The Ed Mills Years
by Lynne Belluschio
In 1930, Donald Woodward, the youngest son of Jell-O magnate, Orator Woodward, announced that he was going to build Le Roy's first public nine-hole golf course. It was to be located on the North side of East Main Road, opposite his huge stock barn on the corner of Asbury Road. He had already been bitten by the golf craze and had erected lights at his airport for a driving range. The Gazette ran an article that mentioned that at first there were not enough lights to see the golf balls but improvements had been made and that there was a "great fascination seeing the balls soar through the rays of the lights."
Woodward had noticed that a lot of people were playing miniature golf and he noted that they really wanted to play regulation golf but couldn't afford it. He told a friend, "It seems a pity that all those people cannot enjoy the real pleasures of real golf on a real golf course." His plans for a regulation 9-hole course were soon on the drawing board. Eventually, the golf course, the airport, a gun club and target range, a baseball diamond and a "way-side inn" were all part of his holdings.
Woodward created the plans for his golf course based on his "observations and experience of what constitutes a good golf course." He said that he did not intend to make the course as difficult as possible but there would be hazards and difficulties. It was noted that the land was ideally suited for a golf course with a rolling landscape and a creek. In the meantime, Don was converting his stock barn into a miniature golf course. The construction of the water hazard (pond) cost $4,000.

The Isis Branch Railway Line was a narrow gauge railway line in Queensland, Australia. It was approved for construction by the Parliament of Queensland in September, 1885. The North Coast line north from Brisbane, reached Maryborough in August 1881, Howard in March 1883 and Goodwood, to the south of Bundaberg, in August 1887.

The first section branched in a westerly direction from the North Coast line south of Goodwood at Isis Junction.  Opened on 31 October 1887, Childers formed at the terminus and stops were established en route at Bootharh, Horton and Doolbi. The Childers station site is now part of the Isis District State High School grounds. The line enabled development of sugarcane production in the region and a short extension northwest via Huxley, Lynwood and Kowbi to Cordalba opened on 1 June 1896.  Kowbi was originally named Hapsburg, but following a large upswell of Anti-German sentiment in Australia after World War I it was changed to the local Aboriginal name for "sugar" .  The line serviced early sugar mills at Knockroe (near Kowbi), Huxley and Doolbi until they were taken over by the Isis Central Mill.

Another fifty kilometre extension southwest to Dallarnil was approved in December 1909 and opened on 6 May 1913.   En route stops were built at Thynne, Marule, Junien, Booyal, Munderbong, Tawah, Stanton and Kukar.  The Dallarnil extension should never have been built.  Much of the country was infertile and the prospect of agricultural development was overestimated.  Small quantities of sugarcane, railway sleepers, cream, lime and cattle were carried but only in spasmodic fashion.

Two trains a week were enough to meet the low volume of traffic and the service beyond Cordalba ceased on 1 July 1955.  The Isis Central Mill purchased the Cordalba Dallarnil section for intended conversion to 2 feet tramway but road transport was preferred.  The rest of the line closed on 1 July 1964 in response to transport of bulk sugar by road and sugarcane by mill owned tramways.

Why Buddy Murphy Might Be The Next WWE Star
By Eric Meisfjord/June 26, 2020 9:52 am EST
He comes from the land down under, does Buddy Murphy. The Australian native, born Matthew Adams, originally wrestled in his home country under the name Matt Silva. He did well enough there to join the WWE in 2013, first in the NXT brand, as reported by Fox Sports Australia. That led to a very big deal indeed: Murphy and his partner, Wesley Blake, took the NXT tag team championship in 2015. A terrific accomplishment, further burnished by the fact that Murphy was the first Ozzie to reach that achievement. "Being the first Australian to ever actually hold a WWE promoted championship — it is a huge honour," he told Fox. "Words can't describe it."
He started his sports journey as a teenager, wrestling in the Melbourne area. He's apparently attracted to higher-risk activity — WWE reports that he's enjoyed rock climbing, bungee jumping, and swimming with whales. He nevertheless found time to work and save enough for a plane ticket to WWE tryouts in Tampa, Florida.
He's now known only as Murphy
ESPN tells us that Murphy made his WWE main roster debut on February 20, 2018. Since then, Murphy has become a fan favorite, taking on bigger-named opponents. Tag team success aside, Bleacher Report suggests he's poised for stardom on his own, merely lacking "the right opportunity to catapult" himself into higher professional ranks.
Maybe a name change will help, because that's exactly what the former Matthew Adams has done — again. He's now wrestling as simply Murphy, says Pro Wrestling Sheet, perhaps because the simplicity of it is more befitting his new stature as a member of the Seth Rollins "Authors of Pain" cohort.
Paul Heyman, executive director of the Raw wrestling franchise, has put a stamp of approval on Murphy as well. Murphy told Digital Spy, "Paul decided I would be a good fit for his brand, the next face of Raw. ... (T)o be working side by side with him is awesome."

Taegukgi / Brotherhood Of War - (English) TYPE3
Film Date : February 6, 2004
Genre : War Family
Tell me a friends : Reporting the video problem?
Share Video :
Taegukgi Hwinallimyo (Hangul: 태극기 휘날리며) is a 2004 South Korean war film directed by Kang Je-gyu. It tells the story about the effect of the Korean War on two brothers. The film's title is the name of the pre-war Flag of Korea as well as the postwar Korea. It was released in the United Kingdom asBrotherhood: Taegukgi and the United States as Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War.
Kang Je-gyu made a name for himself directing Shiri and was able to attract top talent and capital to his new project, eventually spending US $12.8 million on production. The film became one of the biggest successes in Korean film history up to that time, attracting 11.74 million people to the theatre, beating the previous record holder Silmido.
While digging up remains at a Korean War battlefield to set up a memorial site, the South Korean Army excavation team notifies an elderly man that they identified some remains as his own. He believes that they may be those of his brother and drives over to the site with his granddaughter.
The story then shifts to Seoul in June 1950, where the Lee family lives. Jin-tae Lee (Jang Dong-gun) owns a shoeshine stand to pay for his younger brother Jin-seok's (Won Bin) education with the help of a boy named Yong-seok who Jin-seok teaches. Jin-tae's fiancée Young-shin (Lee Eun-ju) works with the Lee's noodle shop. On June 25, North Korea invades the country, and chaos erupts across the nation. Jin-seok is conscripted into the army and when his brother tries to get him off the train, he is conscripted as well. The two brothers are sent to a battlefield. They survive their first artillery strike though Jin-seok nearly dies of a heart attack in shock. Jin-tae is told by his commanding officer that if he can earn the highest award for a South Korean soldier which is the Taeguk Cordon of the Order of Military Merit, his brother can be sent home. Jin-tae willingly volunteers for many dangerous suicidal missions. He is promoted to the rank of Chungsa (Sergeant), but Jin-seok says to his brother that he is concerned Jin-tae is risking his life for the glory of being appreciated and having attention. Soon American led U.N. forces invade South Korea from Incheon and push the North Koreans close to the Chinese border. The battle of Pyongyang soon follows, and many die on both sides. During the battle, Jin-tae captures an important North Korean captain(Choi Min-sik) and is finally awarded with the medal; however, a close friend named Yong-man died in the process, frustrating Jin-seok.
China enters the war on the communist side, invading North Korea en masse and pushing South Korean and U.N. forces in a desperate retreat south. The unit sees the aftermath of a few massacres, and in turn massacres some North Korean units. Jin-seouk witnesses the carnage and is sickened. Yong-seouk speaks with Jin-seouk, telling him about events at home, and tells him how the family is doing now that they are living under the communists. Jin-tae murders Yong-seok when some prisoners make a stand with a hostage-the prisoners had been forced to fight for the entertainment of South Korean troops, and whoever lost would be starved. On their way home Jin-tae gets his medal and Young-shin is captured and taken by the anti-Communists Federation before Jin-seok's eyes when it is later discovered she signed up for the Communist Workers' Party of Korea to get food for the family while saying that the South Korean government gave them nothing in the country's time of need. After Jin-seok escapes from a guard and Jin-tae tries to hold the anti-Communists back from killing Young-shin, who is furthermore accused of being "with every North Korean officer", a chaotic attempt by prisoners is made to escape. During the struggle, Young-shin is shot and killed by an anti-Communist, and the brothers are arrested for trying to rescue her. Jin-seok cries out as Young-shin's body thrown into the trench along with the other previously executed prisoners. In the jail, Jin-seok quietly mocks Jin-tae for Young-shin's death. Jin-tae is later brought in for questioning by a security commander. His request to release his brother is refused, and a Chinese artillery strike takes place. The security commander then orders the prison to be set on fire where Jin-seok is being held. Trying to rescue his brother, Jin-tae loses his consciousness in the artillery strike and wakes up to mistakenly believe his brother died in the fire. He brutally kills the security commander by bludgeoning him to death just before he is restrained by Chinese soldiers.
In truth, Jin-seok had been transferred to a military hospital, after barely escaping the burning cell, and being saved by a soldier nicknamed Uncle Yang. However, Jin-seok was shot in the escape. Uncle Yang also brings a letter that Jin-tae wrote, and says that Jin-tae was never found but he doubts Jin-tae deserted. When Uncle Yang hands Jin-seok the letter, Jin-seok is apathetic towards both the letter and his brother's uncertain fate. However, the next day, he learns from two South Korean military officers that his brother had defected to the North Koreans. Afterwards, he reads Jin-tae's letter to their mother and is brought to tears. He immediately rejoins the army to fight at the 38th parallel, but is denied permission to fight. Jin-seok escapes his camp and runs to the North Korean site, surrendering to them and claiming that he is Jin-tae's brother; Jin-tae is now the leader of an elite North Korean unit. They send him with an escort to validate his claim, but the North Koreans are attacked by South Korean forces and U.S. warplanes, and Jin-seok's escorts are killed by a U.S. bomber. Jin-seok fights his way through the soldiers before the feared North Korean Infantry Unit known as "Flag Unit", commanded by Jin-tae, arrives to reinforce the North Korean lines. The appearance of Flag Unit turns the tables and forces the South Koreans to retreat.
After killing a few South Korean soldiers and not recognizing his own brother, Jin-tae tries to kill Jin-seok in anger. The two fight while Jin-seok begs his brother to recognize him. When Jin-tae is about to shoot him, he is wounded by a bayonet strike. Jin-seok tries to carry him off the battlefield, but is wounded himself as well. Jin-tae finally recognizes his brother. Jin-seok refuses to retreat without Jin-tae, but he convinces him to leave, promising that he will meet him back at home. Jin-tae presents a silver pen, promising to give it to Jin-seok as well as finish the shoes he made when they meet again. The wounded Jin-seok retreats while Jin-tae holds off the North Korean infantry with a machine gun, killing many of them. The North Koreans finally manage to hit Jin-tae in a barrage of bullets. Jin-tae gives one last look at his brother before dying on the battlefield.
The film returns to the modern day, and the now aged Jin-seok is shown at the dig site begging his brother's remains to speak to him, as his granddaughter looks on with sympathy. The film then returns to the past, ending in the aftermath of the Korean War, where Jin-seok returns to his mother, and sees the shoes his brother actually finished, and then heads off with the Young-shin younger siblings in a peaceful Seoul. He reassures them that he will return to school, thereby fulfilling the promise he made to Jin-tae.

LeBron James React as NCAA Star Recreates His Epic Game Winner
Dec 28, 2021; Houston, Texas, USA; Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (6) reacts after scoring a basket during the fourth quarter against the Houston Rockets at Toyota Center. Mandatory Credit: Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports
By Anuj Talwalkar
Despite turning 37, LeBron James has been the best player in the Los Angeles Lakers. He is winning hearts on the court with his dominating outings. However, even off the court, the King is always doing his best to promote the right things. Notably, he has done his part in promoting the WNBA on multiple occasions. Recently, he gave props to a NCAA player for emulating one of his shots.
LeBron has been a great ambassador for the sport of basketball. Not only does he have a clean image off the court, but he is constantly promoting the sport in the best way possible. Even with women's basketball, the Akron Hammer is always one to step up. He has even attended multiple WNBA games to show his support.

So, when he saw a player recreate one of his iconic game winners, he had to give her credit.

LeBron James gives credit to Maleaha Bell for recreating his game winner
Bell is a player for the Florida A&M Rattlers women's team. LeBron's brand sponsors gear for the Rattler's team. In their recent game against the Bethune Cookman Wildcats, the game was all tied up with time for one last play. The ball came right into Maleaha's hands, who turned around and hit the bank shot to win the game.
LeBron later posted a story on his Instagram showing support for the team and giving Bell her props as well. The game winner was reminiscent of LeBron's shot against the Minnesota Timberwolves in 2018. With arguments of the King not being clutch, he silenced all his doubters with game winning plays on both ends of the floor.
The sequence started with the game tied up at 138 a piece. Jimmy Butler took the ball for the Wolves. he himself had a night with 35 points to his name. Having the hot hand, Butler drove right to the rim and got to his spot. As he put up the shot, LeBron swatted it away and J. R. Smith called for the timeout.
Next possession, the ball came inbound to LeBron, who turned and called game with a fadeaway over Jimmy Butler. He finished the game with a 37 point triple double to guide the Cavaliers to a much needed win. It is great to see James promote young stars and give them credit for their moment. This isn't the first time he has done it and there is no doubt that it isn't the last.

LeBron is always looking to promote athletes and give them the recognition they deserve. He continues to hold basketball as his number one priority by doing his duties on and off the court. What do you think of James' actions? Let us know in the comments below.

Home / Blog / Carbon Challenge Continues
On Monday the Government published the long-awaited Energy White Paper – hot on the heels of the Sixth Carbon Budget, which the Climate Change Committee published last week. For those of us in the energy sector, it was the latest in a series of announcements setting out the Government's and other bodies views on how the UK is going to heat and power communities in the future.
Over the last few years many of us in the energy sector have been urging for more clarity from Government about its views on decarbonisation and finally with the recent Ten Point Plan, the Sixth Carbon Budget, the Energy White Paper and a number of new heat strategies due early in the New Year – we've got that in spades!
We welcome the Government's and the Climate Change Committee's direction on the end of fossil fuel boilers. At Wales & West Utilities, this is a policy change we've been discussing with Government for some time. Hydrogen ready boilers are almost at market and are already competitively priced.
Were Government to mandate it, from 2025, all new and replacement boilers fitted could be hydrogen ready. In large cities like Cardiff, and areas around heavy industry, like Swansea Bay, hydrogen is the solution to decarbonise not only home heating, but also industrial heat demand too.
But it is also clear that hydrogen may not reach everywhere. In smaller towns and cities like much of Wales and south west England, it may simply take too long, or not be cost effective to convert to hydrogen. An alternative is needed.
Over the last few weeks there's been a lot of talk about heat pumps as that alternative. In the Prime Minister's Ten Point Plan, the aspiration was for 600,000 installations a year by 2028. The principle of heat pumps is quite simple. Powered by electricity, they absorb heat from outside air and convert it into heat for buildings. In some homes, heat pumps could replace gas boilers and electrify heat. But they have significant drawbacks too – especially for retrofitting to homes (and 80% of the homes in the UK in 2050 are here already). Challenges include the disruption of fitting a new heating system – radiators included, the need for outside space and of course an increase in demand for the generation and transport of green electricity in the winter.
But as the independent Pathways Report showed, there is another way. Smart Hybrid Heating Systems take the best of air source heat pumps, their efficiency, and unite them with the best of a gas boiler – delivering winter warmth when renewables are in short supply. Controlled by built-in smart technology they automatically switch the heating system between gas and electricity; using the lowest cost and carbon energy source available. They use electricity when it comes from renewable energy and is available which in turn reduces gas demand throughout the year, allowing areas of the country where hydrogen is not viable to meet this lower gas demand through biomethane – a renewable gas.
Using smart hybrid systems and green gases to meet peak heat demand also addresses one of the things that has long been the elephant in the room on electrifying heat – how does the electricity network cope with the dramatic increase in demand that would result from full electrification of heat (to put that in some perspective – we'd need four times more electricity to be generated, transported and stored if electricity was to replace gas as the primary heating fuel in the UK), alongside increasing demand from electric vehicles? Smart Hybrid Heating Systems avoid the need for expensive and disruptive reinforcement of the electricity network, with the green gas boiler doing heavy lifting in the coldest part of the winter. They also avoid the disruption in homes too; and can plug into existing heating system and appliances, avoiding the need for customers to spend money on replacing them.
We've long been working on hybrids at Wales & West Utilities, and UKCCC have recognised their importance in previous reports. Working with partners our Freedom Project in Bridgend, south Wales, helped develop the evidence base informing decisions on smart hybrids, as well as customers views on the installation. Customers liked it but did have views on the size and scale of the air source heat pump component of the installation when it was installed outside of their home. Their feedback has led to our HyCompact project with UK Power Networks (UKPN), working with boiler manufacturers who have added the heat pump into the green gas boiler itself – an innovative new hybrid offering that addresses customers views on size while addressing the skills challenge – a smart hybrid system can be easily plumbed in by a Gas Safe Registered Engineer.
What Government announcements and the UKCCC make clear, is that 2021 is the year for action to address the carbon challenge.
For our part, in 2021 we'll continue to work on smart hybrid systems whilst also pushing forward with a series of hydrogen projects. In Wales we're committed to supporting the decarbonisation of industry via the South Wales Industrial Cluster and we've launched a new project in the South West of England - the "Hydrogen Riviera" investigating the opportunities for hydrogen to the more remote parts of our network in Devon and Cornwall.
While the technology is interesting, what makes a mosaic approach to decarbonising heat even more welcome is the impact on customers – or more accurately, the lack of.
If you're in an area which will be converting to hydrogen, once you get hydrogen ready appliances, after Switch over day, you'd use them as you use them today, they'd just have a different fuel. This is a task that the gas industry delivered when it first switched from town gas to natural gas in the 1960s. With that success, and the ongoing delivery of the nationwide gas mains replacement programme since 2002, we're confident that our industry can deliver a change of the scale necessary to the timeline required.
And if your home was to receive a smart hybrid heating system, then things would be just as simple as well. Unlike a heat pump alone, you wouldn't need a new central heating system, and once equipment was fitted; all in one unit, then you too would continue to operate your appliances as usual
2021 is going to be a year of challenges for many: not least recovering from Coronavirus and adapting to the UK's new place in the world. Responding to the climate emergency and decarbonising heat is a significant challenge too.
There's lots of work to do, and it's important that Government policy keeps all options for decarbonisation open and focuses on what energy customers want and need: reliable, affordable and green energy with as little disruption to homes and communities as possible.

If you've been watching tennis lately, no doubt you've been enthralled by the spectacle of strength and skill on display in London. Nothing quite compares to the world's greatest tennis players vying for one of the sport's most coveted championships at its most prestigious court.
But you've also been watching another athlete perform at the top of its game without even noticing. It plays hundreds of matches, receives every shot and never fails. This athlete is the court itself, and the level of expertise and dedication required to maintain pristine playing conditions during a two-week tournament is no small feat. In fact, this preparation is similar to what athletes undergo to win a major event.
For the second season, the Cub Cadet® Infinicut turf mower is being used to manicure the world's most prestigious grass tennis courts. We asked our resident experts: what do the world's premier athletes and finest tennis courts have in common?
Every professional athlete relies on trainers to help them stay in top shape. This team provides an exercise regimen and diet for the athlete to follow — and professional courts have their own teams of groundskeepers to match. Just like the human body, you get out of a tennis court what you put into it.
The grass gets routine fitness checks, ensuring it has optimum levels of nitrogen, moisture and other nutrients needed to stay healthy. In addition to being pampered with fertilizer and water, the grass even gets massaged with a roller, except this roller helps achieve a precise firmness so that the ball bounces to the correct height. Athletes also rely on state-of-the-art equipment to get in shape for game day. Likewise, the Infinicut turf mower is customized to complement each court's distinct requirements to ensure the courts are always in top condition.
This is a superstar's best attribute. Every great athlete has their defining moments, but the legends are revered for their ability to perform consistently. The same goes for tennis courts.
Maintaining consistent levels of performance from the playing field is one of a groundskeeper's greatest challenges. Particularly during international tournaments, players need every surface — from practice courts to center court — to respond similarly to serves and spins. Starting a couple weeks before the tournament starts, every court's hardness is measured daily with a soil impact hammer. Courts that are too hard are softened by watering. Those that are too soft are rolled. A court that offers the level of ball bounce and firmness players expect allows them to focus on the match, not the grass.
The world's greatest athletes are driven by an intense desire to compete at the highest level. They don't expect to contend for a major without having spent months practicing — they know no offseason. Similarly, the process of preparing professional tennis courts for next year begins almost as soon as the championship trophy is hoisted by the victor.
By the time a winner is crowned, the court has seen its fair share of wear and tear. Preparation for the next tournament actually begins by shaving the court down to bare ground, removing all the weak and weedy grasses. The ground is then re-levelled with new soil to repair even the smallest dips and divots in the surface. Then comes approximately 25kg (more than 55 lbs.), of new grass seed for each court, typically a mix of specially bred perennial ryegrass. Through winter, the turf is carefully nurtured and cut to a height of about 13 millimeters. Ahead of tournament play, grass length is gradually reduced until it reaches the perfect playing length of eight millimeters. Finally, the grass is mowed every morning of the tournament.
When the world's greatest tennis players compete for a major title, the court needs to match the quality of play. It takes incredible effort and dedication to cultivate a tennis court that can withstand hundreds of matches while still maintaining an appearance worthy of international envy.
Cub Cadet is also trusted to maintain turf at soccer's highest levels. Check out our blog post detailing what goes into building and maintaining a premier soccer pitch and be sure to explore our lineup of residential mowers, professional mowers and utility vehicles.

The Coyotes hung with rival South Dakota State throughout the game, but a missed opportunity to take the lead and a late interception would seal the game for the Jackrabbits. Despite the Coyotes' best efforts, they fell 21-28.
SDSU struck first with a three-yard rushing touchdown to put the Jackrabbits up 7-0 early in the first quarter. The Coyotes responded with a 65-yard drive capped off with a 16-yard touchdown pass from junior quarterback Chris Streveler to junior wide out Brandt Van Roekel. SDSU kicker Chase Vinatieri would miss a 43-yard and a 52-yard field goal in the second quarter, which helped keep the Coyotes within one score. The game would go into halftime tied at seven.
The game was back and forth throughout the second half, as SDSU would take the lead again on a 47-yard rush to put them up 14-7 in the third quarter. USD would equalize on an eight-yard touchdown pass from Streveler to freshman wide receiver Dakarai Allen. The Jackrabbits would enter the fourth quarter with a lead, as they scored late in the third on a 86-yard drive finished off with a 20-yard rush from quarterback Taryn Christion.
USD was on the board first in the fourth quarter, when they tied the game at 21 on a three-yard rush from Streveler. The Coyotes would get a chance to take the lead midway through the fourth after an interception from sophomore Alex Gray, but senior Miles Bergner was unable to convert on a 32-yard field goal attempt. On the ensuing drive, SDSU marched down the field and scored on a seven-yard rush from Christion to take the lead. USD would go three and out on the following drive, but managed to get the ball back with 56 seconds left to play. The Coyotes would go 28 yards before giving up possession with 11 seconds remaining on an interception from Streveler. The Jackrabbits would take a knee and escape with a 28-21 lead.
Streveler led both teams in passing with 217 yards and two touchdowns, along with an interception. He also was USD's leading rusher with 66-yards and a touchdown. While the two teams were nearly equal in passing yards, 217 to 215, the difference in the game was in rushing. The Jackrabbits totaled 415-yards on the ground to the Coyotes 136. USD struggled to stop the SDSU ground attack as two Jackrabbits would rush for over 100-yards. Brady Mengarelli and Isaac Wallace would go for 161 yards and 102 yards respectively, while Christion and Kyle Paris would run for 79 yards and 74 yards.
With the loss the Coyotes drop to 3-4 in Missouri Valley play and 4-6 on the season. They will finish up the regular season next Saturday when the North Dakota State Bison make a trip to the DakotaDome. Kickoff time is set for 2 p.m.

Texas is still doing "OK" percentage wise on the season for points. If they keep up the current pace, they'll make it to 97 points and make the playoffs. However, it certainly doesn't feel like a team that is going to finish with 97 points. The Stars need to jump on the second night of this back-to-back to get two points and get some swagger back. Lake Erie really pushed their advantage last night, going up 4-0 early and the Stars need to make sure that doesn't bleed over to tonight.
Val Nichushkin still in for Texas. It will likely be his last game, according to reports from Dallas.

Tebow declines Spurrier's overture to join Orlando's pro football team: report
By Stephen Ruiz
Jun 26, 2018 | 11:30 AM
Tim Tebow told Steve Spurrier recently that he plans to stick with baseball and not return to football to play for Orlando's Alliance of American Football franchise.
When Orlando's team begins in the inaugural season of the Alliance of American Football next February, we know Steve Spurrier will be on the sideline.
We now know Tim Tebow won't be on the field.
In an appearance on The Paul Finebaum Show on Friday, Spurrier said he texted Tebow to gauge his interest about a return to football, according to Sports Illustrated. Tebow, who is an outfielder-designated hitter with the New York Mets' Class AA affiliate in the Eastern League, declined.
Florida Gators legend Steve Spurrier named coach of Orlando's new pro football team
Apr 07, 2018 | 9:00 AM
"He said, 'Coach, I'm gonna keep swinging the bat and see what happens,'" Spurrier said. "I told him we'd have a No. 15 down in Orlando waiting for him."
Tebow, 30, has not played a football game since he was with the New York Jets in 2012. The former quarterback completed 47.9 percent (173 of 361) of his passes for 2,422 yards, 17 touchdowns and nine interceptions in 35 career NFL games.
His career highlight came when he led the Denver Broncos to a 29-23 overtime victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the playoffs after his rookie season in 2010.
Tebow was part of two national championship teams at the University of Florida and won the 2007 Heisman Trophy.
As a baseball player, Tebow appears to be improving. Entering Tuesday night, he is batting .256 with five home runs and 27 RBIs in 64 games with the Binghamton Rumble Ponies. He has struck out 83 times in 199 at-bats.
Founded by Charlie Ebersol and former NFL general manager Bill Polian, the AAF has placed franchises in eight cities. Besides Orlando, they are Atlanta, Birmingham, Memphis, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, San Antonio and San Diego. Spurrier, 73, will coach Orlando's team.

Quranic Reflection No. 359 Āyat 5:55 – The True Walī
إِنَّمَا وَلِيُّكُمُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا الَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَهُمْ رَاكِعُونَ
Innamā waliyyukumu-llāhu warasūluhu walladhīna āmanū-lladhīnā yuqīmūnas-salāta wayu'tunaz-zakāta wahum rāki'ūn
Your guardian is only Allah, His Apostle, and the faithful who maintain the prayer and give the zakāt while bowing down.
(Sūratul Mā'idah, No.5, Āyat 55)
In this verse Allah talks about the walī of the believers being Allah Himself, His Messenger – the Holy Prophet (s) – and then a specific people who believe, who keep up the prayer and give charity while in the state of rukū'. A walī is an authority, one who looks after the affairs of someone and has their best interests at heart. Obedience to the walī is obligatory and paves the way for success in all aspects of life.
This verse is one of the clearest proofs of the wilāyah of Amīrul Mu'minīn Imam Ali 'alayhis salām after the Holy Prophet sallallāhu 'alayhi wa-ālihi wa-sallam. Note the following;
1. The word innamā at the beginning of the verse restricts the wilāyah only to those mentioned in this verse. No one else is worthy of it.
2. The word walī can also be interpreted as a friend or helper. However the word innamā shows that this interpretation is highly unlikely in this verse. Believers are friends and helpers of each other regardless of whether zakāt is obligatory on them or not, and there cannot be a restriction imposed on that to only a specific group within them.
3. The word alladhīna is plural but a plural pronoun is often used for one person to show respect and status. That is a common norm in most languages.
4. The words 'wahum rāki'ūn' refers specifically to the physical state of bowing down while giving charity, not a general state of doing rukū' to Allah often in salāt. The quality of maintaining salāt has already been mentioned as the first quality and the word rāki'ūn is linked to the second quality.
5. Some commentators have claimed that rukū' here means a state of humility rather than the actual act of bowing down. This is not acceptable as nowhere else in the Quran has humility been referred to as rukū'. The words khāshi'ūn (Q 21:90, 23:2), tadharru' (Q 7:55, 7:205) have been used in many verses to signify a state of humility.
Commentators of the Quran, both Shī'ah and Sunni agree that this verse was revealed after the incident of Imam Ali (a) giving his ring to the beggar while in rukū'. He is the only one recorded in Islamic history to have done so. According to Hadith one day a poor man entered the mosque of the Prophet and asked for help. No one answered him. He raised his hands and said, "O Allah, bear witness that I asked for help in the mosque of Your Prophet (s) but no one helped me." Imam Ali (a) was praying at that time and was in rukū'. He signaled with his right hand and the poor man came and took the ring that was on his finger. This verse was revealed after that.
'Adud al-Din al-Iji, the famous Sunni theologian, affirms in his book al-Mawāqif that the commentators have consensus that this verse was revealed about Imam Ali (a). Al-Jurjānī in Sharh al-mawaqif, Sa'd al-Dīn al-Taftazanī in Sharh al-maqāsid, al-Qushchi in Sharh tajrīd al-I'tiqād also have confirmed the consensus. Great Sunni scholars of Hadith have narrated this Hadith in their books, like: 'Abdul Razzāq al-San'ani, 'Abd b. Hamīd, Razin b. Mu'āwiya, al-Nasā'ī, Muhammad b. Jarīr al-Tabarī, Ibn Abī Hatam, Ibn 'Asākir, Abu Bakr b. Murdawayh, Abu l-Qasim al-Tabrani, al-Khatīb al-Baghdādī, al-Haythami, Ibn al-Jawzi, Muhibb al-Tabarī, Jalāl al-Dīn al-Suyūtī, and al-Muttaqī al-Hindi. Al-Alusī says: most of the muhaddiths believe that the verse was revealed about Ali (a).
A lot has been written about this verse which is beyond the scope of this reflection. A more detailed analysis and a list of Sunni scholars who have interpreted this verse to refer to the wilāyah of Imam Ali (a) can be found athttps://www.seratonline.com/4549/exegesis-of-the-verse-of-wilayat-from-the-ahle-sunnah-perspective/.
As you celebrate the occasion of the blessed birth of mawlā Imam Ali (a), recite this verse to remind you of his position. The Quran explicitly talks about his authority as linked to the authority of Allah and His Messenger. It is an honor to be from among his Shī'ah. Memorize this verse as a gift for his birthday.

In today's Technical and Digital era the Smartphones are a necessity rather than need. A normal human being can survive without food for days but not without the cell phone. The greed of peoples towards the need of cell phones is harming the health of people. Lets see some phone radiation effects.
Many people's are addicted to the habit of checking mobile phone before going to bed or while curling up in bed each night. Because for them it might seem like the correct opportunity to check email, play games, looking up at your friends on social media, surfing the web for no reason. Most of the peoples have the habit of doing all of the days pending stuff at night.
Is the Excess use of Smartphones good for Our health?
Of course Not, If you have been doing this then you must stop this immediately, it is harmful to your health. Today we will be highlighting the major harmful effects of overusing the Smartphones. The main focus will be on how the mobile phones light not just affects our eyes but it gives rise to several other health problems too.
The blue light emitting from electronic devices like mobiles can directly damage your vision. Research declare that direct exposure to blue light can damage your retinas.
When there is dark and you have blue light directly hitting the eyes, causes eye strain and pain. If this continued for a long time, it can permanently damage the vision as well.
It is been recommended that you use the night mode at night to avoid more damage to the eyes.
This is also called REM sleep. REM sleep is a stage of sleep that is critical for restoration of your mind and body. REM sleep freezes memories and is available to your creative and problem-solving skills.
If you don't get sufficient of it, it can leave you feeling tired and having difficulty focused the next day.
The research found that students who were using an E-reader before bed took on average of 10 minutes longer to fall asleep as compared to those who were reading a normal print book. So try using a printed real book at night instead of doing anything on phone or watching TV, etc.
The blue light emitted by the mobile phones affects the production of melatonin. It is nothing but the hormones produced by brain's pineal gland that helps one to sleep and regulates the sleep cycle. As the body produces melatonin, the body's sleep rhythm kicks in. That's interrupted by the phones.
Regular use of the mobile phone at night before falling asleep can lead to sleep loss and other health issues like depression as well. In other words, messing around with your smartphone, predominantly when your body is preparing to be asleep, might donate to tiredness. If not kill you.
Younger people agonized more than older people, the study found. They devote more time on phones, yet.
When you wake up from a fidgety night's sleep, your efficiency suffers. Not getting enough sleep is known to creel your decision-making skills impairs both long-term and short-term memory and make you unfocused. This leads to unnecessary tension and unease.
Grudging the body of sleep, it needs weakens the immune system by not giving it enough time to build its forces. Not only does this surge the risk of dwindling ill it also slows down retrieval from illnesses.
The inner problems are not visible by outer eyes. Which internally harming your body due to sleep problems. Nobody can deny the fact that living without a cell phone today is enormously difficult but must we be so pasted to them.
It is harder to fall asleep.
Surges the danger of weight gain.
Creels the quality of your sleep.
It will make you feel tired.
When your sleep gets affected by too much of light emitted by mobile phone, that further affects one's brain as well as the memory power too. When a person is destitute of sleep it affects the body digestion and the blood flow in the brain gets affected.
According to the study of Harvard, reading a screen before sleeping will cause you to feel sleepier and groggier. You will feel more tired and less alert when you wake up.
The blue light emitted from the mobile phones distresses the manufacture of melatonin and thereby sleep. It is an important hormone also known for its anti-oxidant properties and helps the body to contest against cancer mainly those related to breast and prostate cancers. When your melatonin levels are suppressed, your risk for cancer and other ailments increases.
Keeping a mobile phone near head at night is dangerous for health it can cause various health problems.
The radio frequency coming from mobile phones are harmful to the body as well as brain during sleep. Shutting down your phone will make you asleep faster, or you can keep it away from the brain at night the greater the distance, the weaker the effects of electromagnetic radiation.
Above are some pretty serious issues. so, in solving the problem was not to simply ban adolescents/youngsters from using their devices but to find ways of encouraging better sleep habits to youths. It is strongly advised that reduce the use of Smartphones. According to the research, replacement is much simpler that reduction, so replaces the habit of excess use of smartphones.
