Early life and education[edit]
Robert Doyle Marshall Jr. was born in Madison, Wisconsin.[2] His father Robert Doyle Marshall was a Ph.D. student at the University of Wisconsin–Madison,[3][4] and his mother Anne was a teacher.[5] Like him, his younger sister Kathleen became a choreographer and director.[6]
In 1964, Robert Marshall joined the English department at the University of Pittsburgh,[7] and the Marshall family relocated to Pittsburgh.[5] Anne would later work for Pittsburgh Public Schools and the University of Pittsburgh School of Education, and Robert would become associate professor of English and dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the same university.[5]
Rob Marshall graduated from the Falk School,[8] and then in 1978 from Taylor Allderdice High School, into whose alumni hall of fame he later was inducted.[9] Graduating from Carnegie Mellon University in 1982,[1][10] Marshall worked in the Pittsburgh theatre scene, performing with such companies as Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera.[11]
Marshall went on to perform as a dancer in various Broadway shows, but suffered a herniated disc while performing in Cats and after recovering, transitioned into choreography and then directing.[12]
He debuted in the film industry with the TV adaptation of the musical Annie by Charles Strouse and Martin Charnin. He went on to direct the 2002 adaptation of the Kander and Ebb musical Chicago, for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director. His next feature film was the drama Memoirs of a Geisha based on the best-selling book of the same name by Arthur Golden starring Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li, Michelle Yeoh and Ken Watanabe. The film went on to win three Academy Awards and gross $162,242,962 at the worldwide box office.[13]
In 2009, Marshall directed Nine, an adaptation of the Broadway production with the same name starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, Sophia Loren and Penélope Cruz, who was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. Marshall then went on to direct Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, the fourth chapter of Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean film series starring Johnny Depp, Ian McShane, Penélope Cruz and Geoffrey Rush,[14] which opened on May 20, 2011.[15]
Marshall directed Disney's film adaptation of Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods (2014), and produced the film under his Lucamar Productions banner.[16][17] His next film was the sequel to the 1964 film Mary Poppins, titled Mary Poppins Returns, reuniting two Into the Woods actresses: Emily Blunt as the title character and Meryl Streep in a supporting role.[18]
By December 2017, Disney was considering Marshall to direct the live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid,[19] in which he was officially confirmed to direct on December 2018.[20][21]
As of at least 2007, Marshall lives in New York City with his partner, producer John DeLuca.[22] In 2004, they bought a $4.2 million summer home in Sagaponack, New York, part of The Hamptons.[23]

True to form, my tribute to the city of Chicago and the food that got me through graduate school is taking longer to complete than promised...much like the graduate school experience itself. October 2014 was a crazy month with some rather tough stuff in it, but here we are in November and I'm hungry to continue celebrating some of my favorite Chicago eateries.
The Bongo Room. Photos simply do not do justice to the decadence that is brunch at The Bongo Room. Very few photos exist of my many trips to this fine establishment, mostly because I could not wait another moment to take in the fluffiest pancakes coated in crushed pretzels and drizzled with chocolate and bananas, or perhaps an aromatic vanilla crème anglaise and ribbons of salted caramel, or maybe a dusting of graham cracker and webs of chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla sauces with fresh strawberries dancing in a Neapolitan wonderland. If you play your cards right, you might happen upon said pancakes topped with crushed candied praline and buttery hazelnut cream. I could go on and on. And on.
I suggest going with a friend and ordering one sweet, one savory, and splitting them amongst yourselves. My favorite savory has always been their baby spinach, roasted red pepper, and feta Benedict, shown photobombing the chocolate tower French toast above. That Benedict is such a ham.
The Bongo Room has three Chicago locations: 1470 N Milwaukee in Wicker Park (check out the ceiling fans!), 5022 N Clark in Andersonville (perhaps the most seating of the three), and the original South Loop location at 1152 S Wabash.


Studied jazz dance under Frank Hatchett (N.Y.) from 1983 and was given degree of instructor of Vop style advance by Frank Hatchett.
1980-82 Three successive titles in All Japan Students Championships for rhythmic gymnastics.
1989 4th National Cultural Festival Jazz Dance Japan Cup Championships.
1993 Nagoya Citizen Art Festival Prize from Mayor of Nagoya City, Japan.
2001 lnvited to Jazz Dance World Congress as representative of Japan (Monterrey, Mexico).

Die Dr.-Johanna-Decker-Schulen (kurz: DJDS) sind ein privates, staatlich anerkanntes Gymnasium und eine Realschule in Amberg (Bayern). Die Schule wurde 1839 von den Armen Schulschwestern von Unserer Lieben Frau in dem ehemaligen Kloster Sankt Augustinus der Salesianerinnen gegründet. Es handelt sich um die erste höhere Mädchenschule in der Oberpfalz.

Die beiden Schulen sind auch heute noch reine Mädchenschulen (Monoedukation) und werden von rund 745 Schülerinnen besucht (Stand: 2022). Die Schulen arbeiten unter einer gemeinsamen Schulleitung zusammen, was den Übergang zwischen den Schulen für die Schülerinnen erleichtert.

Die Schule trägt heute den Namen ihrer ehemaligen Schülerin Johanna Decker (1918–1977), die als Missionsärztin in Rhodesien, heute Simbabwe, arbeitete und dort ermordet wurde.

Am 1. Januar 2005 hat die Schulstiftung der Diözese Regensburg die Trägerschaft der Schulen übernommen. Es wird ein monatliches Schulgeld erhoben.

Gründung der Schule
Mutter Maria Theresia von Jesu Gerhardinger (1797–1879) hat die Kongregation der Armen Schulschwestern 1833 gegründet. Der Orden wuchs innerhalb von zehn Jahren sehr stark an und es wurden mehrere Filialen gegründet. 1843 wurde im Angerkloster in München das Mutterhaus der Kongregation eingerichtet. Von dort aus verbreitete sich der Orden weltweit. Mutter Maria Theresia eröffnete zur Ausbildung ihrer ordenseigenen Lehrerinnen das erste Lehrerinnenseminar in Bayern. 1985 wurde Maria Theresia Gerhardinger seliggesprochen. 1998 wurde ihre Büste in die Walhalla aufgenommen.

Im Jahr 1839, sechs Jahre nach der Ordensgründung, eröffnete Mutter Maria Theresia in Amberg eine höhere Mädchenschule. Dabei hatte sie mit dem Widerstand vieler Bürger zu kämpfen. Mit der Leitung wurde die erst 24-jährige M. Margarita von Cortona Wiedemann beauftragt. Die Schule erwarb sich schnell einen ausgezeichneten Ruf.

Fächer und besondere Aktivitäten
Das Gymnasium führt innerhalb von acht Jahren zum Abitur (→ verkürzter Bildungsgang – G8).

Die Schülerinnen können am Gymnasium zwischen einem sprachlichen, einem wirtschafts- und sozialwissenschaftlichen und einem naturwissenschaftlich-technologischen Schwerpunkt wählen. An der Realschule gibt es einen wirtschaftskundlichen, einen sprachlichen und einen hauswirtschaftlichen Zweig.

Seit 1994 besteht eine Partnerschaft mit dem Lycée Technique Privé Sainte Anne in Ettelbruck (Luxemburg), einer katholischen Mädchenschule; seit 2014 gibt es eine Partnerschaft mit der Northampton High School, einer britischen privaten Mädchenschule im Girls' Day School Trust.

Berühmte Schülerinnen
 Johanna Decker (1918–1977), Missionsärztin
 Mildred Scheel (1931–1985), Ärztin, Gründerin der Deutschen Krebshilfe
 Herta Flor (* 1954), Neuropsychologin
 Gabrielle Scharnitzky (* 1956), Schauspielerin
 Barbara Meier (* 1986), Fotomodell und Mannequin, Gewinnerin bei Germany's Next Topmodel

Home Kobe Bryant Q&A: On Revenge Next Year, Mamba Mentality, Kobe 9 Elite
Kobe Bryant Q&A: On Revenge Next Year, Mamba Mentality, Kobe 9 Elite
Lakers Players Tweets Of The Week: February 23 – March 2
Serena Winters
Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant was out at Westfield Culver City Mall on Saturday where thousands of Lakers and Kobe fans gathered to listen to the five-time NBA champion talk about the inspiration behind his new Nike Kobe 9 Elite shoe, and specifically, The Masterpiece.
What inspired Bryant to create a high top shoe? What does the Mamba mentality mean to Kobe? Which Mamba mentality moment means the most to him? What can fans expect from Kobe as the end of his career draws near? Bryant's question and answer session with Jeff G., aka The Sports Dude On Power 106, is below.
Jeff G.: You just signed a two-year deal…talk about that means to you and what the fans can expect the last two years from Kobe.
Kobe: "This year, we all know it's been a real tough year for us right? So what I'd like everybody to do is to really just sit back and just absorb this year. Take it all in. Sit back and watch and listen and hear all the hate that's being thrown at us and remember every person that's kicking you when you're down because next year it ain't gunna be this way."
Appreciate it now. Let it sit in now, because revenge is sweet and it's quick."
JG: There's a lot of people that have had a lack of faith in the team and your recovery and all those things, but that's all motivation [for you]?
Kobe: "You've got to appreciate that and enjoy that and use that as fuel as motivation to basically just shut everybody the hell up. It's that challenge, that challenge that drives us all, I think, and definitely keeps me going."
JG: How does it feel to have your 9th signature shoe?
Kobe: "It's a huge honor I'm very fortunate to partner with a great company like Nike that really allows me to push innovation and kind of tell my story through the product."
JG: Nick (Young) thinks he's the swaggiest of the swaggiest. Who's got more swag, you or swaggy?
Kobe: "It really doesn't matter to me. He can wear the 9s and we'll say Kobe night, designed by Swaggy P. I'm cool with that. He can have all the swag he wants to, man. As long as he plays defense makes shots, I don't give a damn."
JG: Clothes are swaggy but rings are swagger…
Kobe: "Hey man listen, it doesn't get more swaggier than that."
JG: How about the decision to go with the high cut silhouette?
Kobe: "Honestly, I got that from watching a good friend of mine, Manny Pacquiao spar. I went to one of his sparring sessions and he was wearing his Nike Pacquiao boots and I'm just sitting there watching him move and watching how it's kind of keeping his foot locked in but he still had good range of movement, and I said you know what, I wonder if I can do that with a basketball shoe and then that's when that idea first started kicking in."
JG: What is the Black Mamba mentality?
Kobe: "It's really about no matter what happens come hell or high water you're going to figure it out. No matter what. No matter what. So whatever obstacle you meet whatever form of resistance you meet or negativity or injury or whatever the case may be you have this inner belief and inner confidence that you are going to figure out a way to get this done and I think that's what this mamba mentality represents the most is this never die attitude."
JG: Are there any moments in your career that are really a true reflection of that mamba mentality?
Kobe: "The 81-point game would seem like that would be it but honestly last year at the All-Star break… that was it. Because it was like you know what I've got take this All-Star break, refocus, get in better shape and come back the second half of the season with no mercy and get this team to the playoffs, but that was tough. You're five games back in the Western Conference, you're pretty much a nail in a coffin."

Once a promising prospect in the Yankees' organization, Tyler Clippard has returned to the Bronx with a newfound maturity to get the job done.
Fans remember Tyler Clippard from all the hype surrounding him in his 2007 stint in New York. Then he seemed to fall off the face of the Earth. And just when the New York Yankees need it most, he has returned to the Bronx and filled in the gap for a struggling bullpen down the playoff stretch.
Perfect timing for a player who was destined to be a top starter at the beginning of his career.
Clippard's career in the Yankees farm system showed promise for what he could do up in the Bronx. Impressing with his blazing four-seam fastball and talent for striking out the majority of hitters he faced, he seemed like the perfect addition to the starting rotation.
Starting at 18 years old, Clippard finally broke into the Major Leagues at 22 for what was deemed a disappointing season. Despite a 3-1 record, his ERA steadily rose to 6.33 and, even worse, he only recorded 18 strikeouts while giving up 17 walks in 27.1 innings pitched.
RELATED: Why Is Bernie Williams Often Left Out?
After his short stint for the Yankees, Clippard was traded away to the Washington Nationals, and that was the last the Yankees saw and heard from Clippard. That is, until he reemerged as a name during the trade deadline as the Yankees were desperate to jump back into the hunt for October.
As someone who seemed like such a promising option for New York back in the early 2000s, Clippard was just another player that the Yankees forced into a starting role when his pitching style better suited the bullpen. Think Joba Chamberlain and even, more recently, Luis Severino. Clippard was nothing spectacular to the Nationals, the Oakland A's or the New York Mets, but he got the job done.
The Yankees had one of the strongest trios in the back end of the bullpen with Dellin Betances, Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman. That was, until the Yankees shipped off two of the three dominant relievers in pursuit of building their now nasty farm. While Clippard is no Chapman or Miller, he was brought in with a shot for a second chance, a clean slate.
And simply put: he's delivered.
Since arriving at the trade deadline, Clippard has become an anchor in the bullpen and has far exceeded expectations. In 13 games, Clippard has recorded 11 strikeouts in 12.1 innings pitched. Currently sporting a 0.73 ERA, Clippard has played several roles in the bullpen and excelled each time he's received that call from the dugout.
A former two-time All-Star with the Nationals, Clippard has brought his goggles and his strikeouts back to the Bronx. While his past performances in New York were less than ideal, the second coming of Clippard has proven his growth and maturity in the game of baseball since 2007.
We're not going to insist that Clippard is the perfect replacement for Miller and Betances. We're not even going to go as far as to say Clippard is the best reliever on the squad. But it can be said that Clippard is exactly what the Yankees need at exactly the right time. And that could not be more accurate.
In the 13 games he has pitched in since his return to the Yankees, the team is 12-1. In each of his outings, he's thrown an average of 16.2 pitches. He is getting outs, securing holds and doing it all efficiently.
It seems to be the story for the Yankees this season, especially since the beginning of August. Players are being brought to the squad and exceeding expectations to help create a perfect equation for New York to make a run to October.
Clippard was once a household name that caused disappointment in New York. Now? He is getting a second chance and the Yankees are reaping the benefits of his return to the Bronx.

Bill Collins' Golden Years Of Hollywood
1 9 6 6 – 1 9 9 5 (Australia)
Bill Collins has been described as "Mr Movies of Australia". He presented films on television and on video from 1963 and came to be a trusted and enthusiastic guarantor of whatever film he happened to be presenting.
As a high school English teacher, long interested in the cinema and its possible role in the classroom, he completed a Master's degree in Education on the role of film in education and took up a position as a lecturer in English at the Sydney Teachers' College.
In 1963 he made his first appearance on television, producing and presenting a series of filmed segments on film appreciation.
That same year also saw him compiling a weekly column for Australia's television guide, TV Times, entitled "The Golden Years of Hollywood".
The column consisted of a series of reviews of upcoming Hollywood films to be screened on Australia's three commercial networks as well as the public broadcaster, the ABC.
Collins' reviews were invariably to the point and reliable in their production credits at a time when this kind of information was not so easily available as it is nowadays.
To write these reviews, Collins was having to preview many of the films. It seemed quite logical, then, when TCN Channel 9 (owned by Consolidated Press who co-published TV Times with the ABC) decided to have Collins host a Saturday night movie, with the generic name of The Golden Years of Hollywood.
Collins continued to host the Saturday night movie on Channel 9 in Sydney until 1975 when he moved to the Seven Network. Channel 9 disputed that Collins had the legal right to call his Saturday night movie programme The Golden Years of Hollywood and so the Seven programme became Bill Collins' Golden Years of Hollywood.
The change suited Collins because his career as a movie host was now taking off. His Saturday night movie was now increasingly seen nationally and as his earnings increased Collins quit his teaching job to concentrate full time on his television work.
At Seven, Collins began to host a Sunday daytime film, Bill Collins' Picture Time and also a more general programme featuring film clips and promotion for new releases, Bill Collins' Show Business.
Collins moved yet again in 1980 in a move that made him even busier. Rupert Murdoch had recently acquired the third commercial network which he re-named Network Ten. The latter had always lagged in the ratings and Murdoch was determined to change this situation even if it meant spending a lot of money to hire Collins away.
Collins now became a national figure to the point that other movie hosts on regional stations ceased to have any importance and little recognition. By this time he seemed to be everywhere.
Not only did he host a double feature on a Saturday night under the old title of The Golden Years of Hollywood, a double feature on Sunday lunchtime and afternoon, the midday movie during the week on a capital city by capital city basis but also an afternoon book review and promotion programme.
Thanks both to the size of his programme budgets as well as his commercial standing, Collins was able to do live interviews with major Hollywood actors including his very favourite, Clint Eastwood. He also published two books, lavishly illustrated, on his favourite films.
In addition, Collins also had his own series of Hollywood feature films on video which he hosted – Bill Collins' Movie Collection. Collins also made professional visits to fans across the country, these taking the form of breakfasts and lunches. To carry out these massive commitments Collins now had a staff of researchers and his own press and publicity agents.
In 1987 because of the introduction of new cross-ownership rules in Australia media, Murdoch sold off Network Ten. Collins continued there until 1994. The network suffered from financial problems, so there was a curtailment of his programmes.
However, in 1995 he, in effect, rejoined the Murdoch camp when he began presenting films on Australia's first cable network, Foxtel, owned and operated by Murdoch's News Corporation and Telstra Corporation.
There is no gainsaying the achievement of Bill Collins. He appeared on Australian television at a time when Hollywood films, not only of the 1930s and 1940s but also of the 1950s were becoming available for television programming. He has helped to make Hollywood films popular with generations who were born after the Hollywood studio era.
His introductions to particular films were invariably interesting, enthusiastic and well researched. He would often display a still or a poster, brandish the book on which a film was based (he had an extensive collection of these, often extremely rare books) or play some of a film's theme music.
Altogether Bill Collins was one of the most durable and valuable figures in the history of Australian television.
Collins died in June 2019.

Home Education Recruitment Agencies Teaching Recruitment Agencies
Teaching Recruitment Agencies
Displaying 47 of 397 Agencies that recruit for Teaching jobs in the Education industry.
A career in teaching can provide candidates with a challenging but rewarding route into the education sector. There are over 450,000 teachers across the UK and recruitment agencies will work to place professionals into primary, secondary or tertiary education jobs.
What does a teaching career involve?
Teachers are responsible for teaching pupils or students in line with a curriculum. Although primary school teachers will be expected to deliver lessons across multiple topics, those in a secondary school or further education (FE), may specialise in a particular subject area.
While the majority of vacancies are found in primary and secondary schools, a recruitment agency may also list educational establishments such as nurseries, colleges and universities amongst it's clients. Part time and temp teaching jobs are also common and offer flexibility to candidates.
Salaries and entry requirements
Teaching salaries can fluctuate according to experience and location, however the starting salary for a newly qualified teacher (NQT) is around £22K. Earnings for NQTs are dictated by a pay scale which can rise as high as £32K. This can be slightly higher within London based institutions and the average overall salary is £37K. Performance and promotions can eventually see candidates command a headteacher job and salaries in this position can exceed £100K. Free schools and academies set their own pay scales and are under no obligation to mirror state schools.
The profession has strict entry requirements and recruiters will need to assess candidates to ensure that they comply. Basic qualifications include GCSEs in English and Maths (C or above) and an undergraduate degree. Candidates wanting to work in a primary school will need a further GCSE in Science. Initial Teaching Education or Training (ITET) must be completed before trainee teachers can attempt professional skills tests. These must be passed in order to gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
Challenges for recruitment agencies
With the rise in pupil numbers, the supply of teachers is struggling to keep up with the demand. Teaching recruitment agencies in the UK are tasked with tackling the shortage of quality teachers, as well as the high level of staff leaving the sector. This is done by both specialist and multi-sector recruiters. As a result of this however, prospects for employment are positive and candidates can expect an increase in the quantity of job opportunities available.

The Spanish Civil Guard launched a raid in Barcelona early Wednesday morning in search of voting material for the independence referendum that Catalan authorities plan to hold on October 1, despite its suspension by the courts on the grounds that it is unconstitutional.
Under the orders of a judge, officers entered nine government premises, including the Palau de la Generalitat – the seat of government – and the foreign affairs, economy and labor departments, according to the EFE news agency. A total of 41 searches were carried out.
Fourteen people have been arrested, according to police sources. One of them is a top Catalan official, Economy Secretary General Josep María Jové, who answers directly to the deputy regional premier, Oriol Junqueras. Among the other detainees are the regional Tax Agency secretary, Josep Maria Salvadó, and the services director from the vice-premier's office, Natalia Garriga.
As well as public officials, three citizens were also among the 14 detainees. Pau Furriol is a lawyer and was the head of the guarantee commission for Catalan nationalist party Republican Left of Catalonia. Mercedes Martínez Martos, meanwhile, is the representative of an advertising company called Fox Box Publi Alternativa. The firm owns an industrial premises in Bigues i Riells (Barcelona) where voting slips and other material related to the October 1 referendum were located. Also placed under arrest, in this case in Madrid, was Rosa María Rodríguez Curto, the general services manager of IT consultancy and services company T-Systems.
At 9am, protesters spilled out onto the bustling La Rambla pedestrian mall yelling "we will vote" and "independence," Europa Press reported.
"They are attacking this country's institutions and thus attacking its citizens. We will not allow it," said deputy premier Oriol Junqueras, following his aide's arrest.
The Catalan premier, Carles Puigdemont, called an emergency meeting of his Cabinet in response.
Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said in Congress that "this was done on the decision of a judge to ensure compliance with the law." Catalan deputies in the chamber walked out.
These events represent a major escalation in the ongoing confrontation between Madrid and Barcelona over the illegal October 1 referendum.
Until now, moves to stop the ballot from taking place had been more low-key, as had been the efforts to make it happen.
Law enforcement forces in Catalonia – the Mossos d'Esquadra regional police, the National Police and the Civil Guard – were instructed on September 12 to confiscate all voting material, from campaign posters to ballot boxes.
But Spain's public prosecutor is unhappy about the way the Mossos have been acting – or failing to act – to stop these preparations.
In July of this year, the Mossos chief resigned and regional authorities appointed a replacement with a public history of supporting secession.
Instead, the Civil Guard has been taking the lead in anti-referendum operations.
Regional premier Carles Puigdemont has promised that the planned ballot will be binding, no matter what the turnout and despite its lack of legal backing.
In order to provide the vote with some kind of legal framework, the Catalan parliament recently passed two controversial pieces of legislation using an unprecedented fast-track method that dispensed with regular procedural safeguards and triggered a mass walkout by non-separatist forces in the chamber. The laws were immediately suspended by Spain's Constitutional Court.
Puigdemont and his separatist coalition, which holds a slim majority in the Catalan parliament thanks to support from a fringe party called CUP, have been intensifying their challenge to national laws by holding rallies in support of the vote, asking mayors to lend municipal premises on October 1 and notifying 55,000 citizens of their duty to go man the voting stations that day.
Catalonia's bid for independence: how did we get here?

Cork man undertook a 33,000km trip around the world, by bike!
Adventurer John Devoy tells CHRIS DUNNE about how his two-year travels have become a book
John Devoy at a book signing in Kerr's book shop in Clonakilty for 'Quondam: Travels In A Once World'.
Chris Dunne
THIRTY years ago, very few Irish people in permanent, full-time, pensionable jobs thought about taking a gap year.
But John Devoy took two years off to cycle from North Cape in Norway to Cape Town, South Africa.
His mode of transport? A bicycle!
John, who is now 63, from Whitegate but living in Rosscarbery, has written a book about his exploits.
Called Quondam: Travels In A Once World, John says: "It is a tale of search and adventure, intimacy and renewal, landscapes and imagination long before the tech-umbilical."
'Quondam' is an old English word meaning 'at one time' or 'formerly'.
John, who is married to Sara and has three grown-up children, says: "It took me 30 years to begin to write Quondam. The journey I did without Sat Nav, GPS or technology would be impossible today."

The epic journey of one man and his bicycle and the need to explore new horizons changed the direction of his life.
"I came to understand that once upon a time, that is what that person did. Then, I could tell the story as an older guy looking back reflecting on the consequences of travelling," says John.
"When I was approached by the Rosscarbery Historical Society to give a speech about my travels and how I came here with my wife to run an organic farm, I waded through slides, letters and post-cards stored in the attic. That lit the fuse to write the book."
The story of John's wanderlust and sense of adventure starts in Whitegate on the other side of the county.
"My Dad, Thomas, worked in the Whitegate Oil Refinery as a mechanic," says John. "When I was nine, he went to work for an oil company in Libya for two years. I was fascinated by the accounts of his travels that he sent home to us. It fed my wanderlust and it gave me the confidence to do what I wanted to do."
John Devoy on his travels.
In 1985, John gave up his job as a laboratory science technician in CUH. In April that year he set out on his great adventure, in which he covered more than 33,000 kilometres in two years, cycling first beyond the Arctic Circle in Norway, then south through Europe and the Middle East to Africa, where he continued to Cape Town.
Was he an enthusiastic, fit cyclist, like an Ironman?
John laughs.
"Not at all! The cycling was only incidental, going from A to B at my own pace, taking in my surroundings; the people. The journey breaks down into varying bite-sized bits and one part follows the next.
"I was living in the moment. Everything and anything could happen, and I let go a little more, letting go to be vulnerable, for that's when travel really begins."
There were hairy moments.
In the Sudan, he faced civil war and hundreds of kilometres of uncyclable sand, pushing his bike across unforgiving terrain to the amusement of locals. He experienced a hit and run incident in Egypt which damaged his bike and he contracted cerebral malaria in the Congo.
John Devoy and Maurice Sweeney, the editor at the IMMRAME travel writers festival
So he was travelling by the seat of his pants? "Literally!" says John, smiling.
"My dedicated pair of cycling shorts became frayed and torn with wear and tear. In the rain forest in the Congo, a talented tailor mended my shorts and sewed an impressive patch into the backside of them. They took me a long way!"
John says a journey is a mental game. Navigating through life is more of a minefield.
"People say to me, but you cycled across the globe! That is nothing in the big scheme of things, going through the journey of life."
What goes through your mind as you push a bike across the sand at night, towards an unsuspecting home?
"Not much really," says John. "Bar thoughts of what reception might be in store. Syria was the most incredible country for the sense of sheer hospitality and welcome."
The reception from the people John met was usually a good one.
"I recall one night coming off a mountain in the wrong place, going to a farmhouse to ask permission to pass through their yard, then being asked in for tea, and several hours later being driven to where I needed to be on a full stomach!"
When John returned home to Cork and his pensionable job, he couldn't stomach the humdrum of 9 to 5.
"I died a little inside, going back to work where my colleagues spoke of looking forward to the weekend pints or going shopping. I couldn't hack it anymore. You constantly change for two years, you have thousands of experiences, and you just don't fit into the box anymore."
But just like on his travels when he met people from all walks of life, John met a young neighbour who pointed him in the right direction for the next phase of his life.
"I borrowed his lawnmower and we got talking," says John. "He told me about an Organic and Horticultural course in Dromcolliher, bordering Cork and Limerick. The light came on.
"Sara and I had both talked about settling in West Cork to raise our children. That conversation with my neighbour was a pivotal point. It pushed a domino effect.
John Devoy at the Lismore Travel Writers Festival in June 2018.
"The energy from my travels kicked in and we looked to buy some land in West Cork, with a view to starting an organic farm."
It was another first for John. Embracing adventure and new beginnings, the couple bought a six acre piece of land in Rosscarbery and set about making it viable and sustainable.
"We both love the outdoors and the energy of nature," says John. "I had no experience of farming."
But the man who cycled 33,000km solo pushed the boat out.
"In 1999, we sold our house to take on the new challenge, an environmentally friendly approach to farming and to the planet was a whole new adventure from scratch. Getting our organic farm up and running, from installing water and electricity to planting 500 apple trees, we immersed ourselves into the community. It was a clean slate for us."
John had come full circle.
"I drew a ring around six acres of Rosscarbery and said, 'That's my world. I am going to take responsibility for that'. I poured my energy into planting trees, creating polytunnels, and providing food for the locality.
"I thought, if I can travel to South Africa on a bike; I can start a farm."
The home-grown organic produce from the farm soon became a staple in the local markets, shops and restaurants. "It became a way of life for us," says John.
What's next for the adventurer?
"Well, you know, getting the farm going, raising three children takes time and energy," says John with a smile. "For a lot of years, it was very busy."
But the sequel to Quondam won't take 30 years to write, will it?
"Definitely not!" says John. "I'm planning the next chapters as we speak."
And he's planning more travel.
"We took our children to the Congo and it was a wonderful experience for them," says John. "Opening their eyes to a different world was an education in itself.
"I'd like to travel to other countries that get bad press. Like Russia for instance."
John wonders about travel today for those that wish for something different.
"There is the commercial, the slick, the smooth and the costly, the 'dumbed-down' and safe; the symbiotic liaisons between sponsor and traveller" he says. "It's all there in any format you want it would seem."
For those who ventured out before the advent of the communications revolution, travel was very different.
John poses a question.
"Is it difficult to travel today, difficult to cut the technological umbilicus, to allow oneself to go solo, to be vulnerable and trusting?"
Who would want to do that?
"But that is what you have to do if you want a great and even a possibly seminal life experience for all the effort you are going to invest," says John.
"For those who want that, the bottom line is to do it alone, quietly, on the back roads, and yes, without technology."
That's exactly what John did.

Over the years I've had many different computers never had a problem setting the clock. Now I just bought a refurb dell laptop win 7 I7core and no matter how I set it ,the time is wrong. If I manually set it mt email times are all off. if I set it by time zone the clock is off.by hours i 've set to AZ time, set to MTN time, any ideas?
Other than move to a timezone that fits the computer time, no. Never seen that happen in my 30 years as a developer.
May want to check to see if there is something in the bios that can set the time. OR call Dell.
But doesn't Windows already do that?
Which brings up a question; what OS are you running?
Is your motherboard battery good.
Win 7, as in his OP.
Please clarify how "the time is wrong" so we can help you pinpoint the problem.
Do you set it to your correct time and then come back X later and find the time is incorrect?
Do you leave it turned on or do you shut it off?
Is it off by an exact amount of hours (such as a different time zone) or is it off by different minutes each time you check it?
I would go into the bios of the laptop and set the time there and see if it helps.

Q: How to capture content within using block while View is rendering I am using ASP.NET MVC 3.0, with the ASPX View Engine.
I currently have a method that uses a regex to match certain words within text and highlights them accordingly. So far I am using this to process large amounts of text that are being read from flat files. The end goal I am trying to achieve in this post is to be able to capture content sections of a View, and process them using the same method.
Here is a basic example of how I'm currently trying to achieve this:

This is a Test

Line before capture

<% using (Html.CaptureContent())
   { %>

this line should be in capitals

 <%} %>

Line after capture

Html.CaptureContent:
public static ContentCapture CaptureContent(this HtmlHelper html)
{
    return new ContentCapture(html.ViewContext.HttpContext);
}

ContentCapture:
public class ContentCapture : IDisposable
{
    private HttpContextBase Context { get; set; }
    private TextWriter OriginalOutput { get; set; }
    private StringWriter CaptureOutput { get; set; }

    public ContentCapture(HttpContextBase context)
    {

        CaptureOutput = new StringWriter();

        //save the default writer in private property
        OriginalOutput = context.Response.Output;
        Context = context;

        Context.Response.Output = CaptureOutput;
    }

    public void Dispose()
    {
        string processedContent = CaptureOutput.ToString().ToUpper();

        Context.Response.Output = OriginalOutput;
        Context.Response.Output.Write(processedContent);
    }
}

When I run this the output is exactly as the tags are in the View, with no processing applied to the
 tag within the using block. I have tried a couple of variations but with no success. I'm guessing I've made an incorrect assumption of how the View would be rendered as putting a breakpoint in the dispose method has shown me that nothing has been written to the StringWriter object.
Does anyone know of a way I can achieve the desired affect? I'd prefer not to resort to having all the content sections in hard-coded strings being returned by a helper.

A: You need to write to the ViewContext like this:
htmlHelper.ViewContext.Writer.Write("some content");

So you will have to do some refactoring to use that instead of the HttpContext that you are currently passing through.

Who Plans against Ethiopia and Sudan?
Prof. Dr Muhammad Shamsaddin wrote thousands of articles. His articles mainly concentrated on the ancient history with today politics.
Many of his articles are informative, but they all have misguidance and misdirected to uneducated people, especially those who have no enough knowledge of ancient history.
His articles have an ability to cry with those had once been victims and he may cry with them a crocodile tears.
Dr Muhammad origin is Armenia has been living in different countries and he studied in deferent universities. He may well understand the countries in the Middle East one by one.
However, Dr Shamsaddin seems still did not become satisfied with the political development. There is something upset him, there is some inferiority complex in his mind.
Since 2004 until today, he wrote many articles online in many websites concerning the Horn of Africa. All his messages are anti-Ethiopian and the Ethiopian ancient history.
Dr Muhammad Shamsaddin beside his study regarding Abyssinian subjects, which is inerasable Abyssinia history 'Abrahamic heritage', he tried to hide it.
He calls each tribe in Ethiopia to make war against the other tribe. He falsely stands against the government on power so called TPLF and his mission is to destruct the history of Ethiopian and to erase the name of Ethiopia like his Armenia from the face of the world map.
The mission of Dr Muhammad Shamsaddin he conducts through his anti-Ethiopian movement has a background. Egypt continues cultivating anti-Ethiopian and Sudanese policy for several decades. Many of the Sudanese ancient history has already forged by Egyptians.
Egypt does not need unity and development for both Sudan and Ethiopia, but once both nations understand it, Egypt loses many things.

Gambling Around the World
Whether its playing baccarat at a glitzy casino, having a game of poker with your friends, spinning online slots, taking a punt on football, or betting on financial markets, the world loves the thrill of gambling! So, which countries love gambling the most?
Despite gambling only being legalised in Spain in 1977 (and slot machines not until 1981) the Spanish have caught the betting bug with enthusiasm, and these days they are passionate about betting on everything from the lottery to football cards. In fact, it is estimated that four out of five eligible Spaniards purchase tickets for the Christmas "El Gordo" lottery draw!
The Greeks have a particular penchant for lotteries, and the country is home to several large gambling companies. Perhaps it should come as no surprise that Greece was also home to one of the world's most famous gamblers, "Nick the Greek" Dandolos, who won an estimated $500 million in today's terms (though, a word of caution: he did die almost penniless at the age of 83!).
In 2008, a government survey found that 88% percent of Norwegians considered themselves to be lifetime gamblers! So, how do our Scandinavian friends prefer to bet? Lotteries, scratch cards, slot machines and football, apparently.
Inside the former British colony of Hong Kong, which is now a Special Administrative Region of China, horse racing, football betting and lotteries are the only legal types of gambling. But, Macau, the former Portuguese colony (now also a Special Administrative Region of China), is the world's premier casino city, and its only a short ferry ride across the sea. No wonder then, that over half-a-million Hong Kongers visit Macau each year!
Today, Italians simply love slots! But their gaming history goes back a long way – not only was baccarat invented in Italy, but the world's first government approved casino, called "The Ridotto", was opened in Venice way back in 1638. Unfortunately, The Ridotto is no longer with us, having closed in 1774 to protect the city's "piety, sound discipline and moderate behaviour" – a pity, because how cool would gambling in a 400-year-old casino be?
The Finns are serious gamers, with a 2007 study showing 41% of them gamble each week. Its probably something to do with the long, cold, dark winters – but interestingly, Finland is also consistently ranked extremely highly in global education league tables, so maybe the smart Finns just love numbers and probabilities?
Canadians are notoriously fond of several things, including maple syrup, ice hockey, Tim Horton's, and gambling! Yep, that's right, around three-quarters of Canadian adults are thought to gamble at least once each year, with the biggest spenders coming from the province of Saskatchewan (one of our favourite ever words… try saying it).
"It's a long way to Tipperary", but not as far as it is to Las Vegas, so the prospect of a Vegas-style casino strip in that sleepy part of rural Ireland is exciting to say the least! Yes, despite not exactly being known for casinos, the Irish have plans to build a Las Vegas style casino, complete with a 500-room 5-star hotel, eighteen-hole golf course, all-weather racecourse and greyhound tracks, an equestrian centre, and even a replica of the White House (erm… OK)! But then the Irish have always been fond of a bet or two, in fact, the song "It's a Long Way to Tipperary" was itself allegedly written for a 5-shilling bet on 30 January 1912!
Another tiny former British city state in Asia, Singapore was late to the gambling game, not opening its first casino resort, The Marina Bay Sands, until 2010. Since land is in such short supply in Singapore, its no shock that it was the world's most expensive standalone casino property at the time, coming in at $8 billion! Straddling the top of the three towers is the world's largest cantilever platform, holding a 340m long SkyPark that includes a 150m infinity pool. Needless to say, Singaporeans have embraced gambling in style, despite having to pay a punitive S$100 fee to the government, just to enter casinos.
Everyone loves the Aussies, and the Aussies love… pokies. No, we're not talking Jennifer Aniston in her Friends years – 'pokies' is Australian slag for slot machines. Our Antipodean friends will bet on just about anything, and an estimated 80% of adults are thought to gamble, making them among the most enthusiastic gamblers on the planet! Of course, living in a country where so many critters can kill you, means you need to take your mind off things.

Microimage
Founded in the mid 90's by a group of high school students, Microimage is one of the most memorable high school start-up story in Sri Lanka to date. Initially a hobbyists' club, the success of the company was further seen at the launch of their initial local language software product. Based in Colombo as a simple desktop language software provider, today Microimage has transformed into a group of companies with business interests in Human Capital Management, Broadcast, Media, Mobile & Digital Convergence.
The company recently opened up an R&D center in Jaffna with the intention of extending their presence to the northern peninsula. As such, this would enable existing Microimage engineers hailing from Jaffna to work from their home front and also to attract new business ventures.
Their latest product, the HCM Cloud is considered one of the top pure play cloud digital HR solutions available in the global market today. In addition, they also have a broadcast product release titled mStudio 3. This enables broadcasters & media entertainment personalities to deliver a complete digital audio/video experience combining effective social sharing capabilities with mobile apps extending the reach of engagement.
The opening ceremony was graced by senior faculty members of Department of Computer Science at the University of Jaffna and Vavuniya Campus. In a speech, Dr. Thabotharan Kathiravelu, representing Faculty of Computer Science, University of Jaffna praised Microimage for their timing in opening an R&D center in Jaffna as it is the ideal opportunity for the students at the University to obtain a 6 month internships to learn the ropes in the industry. This also marks the second reputed software company to be in Jaffna, the first being WSO2 (though technically it's a Middleware provider).

The team of engineers will engage in R&D for a variety of technologies such as cloud computing, mobile, analytics, machine learning to other emerging digital technologies.
The new work space is expected to bring together top engineers from Jaffna under one roof & also engineers working in other offices to collaboratively work on new technologies to excel Microimage's products to greater heights. The office located in Palali road close to city centre can house around 25 engineers currently. It also has accommodation facility up to 4 engineers travelling from Colombo to work on R&D activities collaboratively with their Jaffna counterparts.

The opening of the centre would also pave the way to establish strong relationships with academic institutions in northern peninsula towards knowledge sharing on a range of modern technologies and to provide internship opportunities for top young talent"
Duxion Murugesu, Head of Broadcast Solutions at Microimage expressed his delight at establishing an R&D centre on his home soil. During the initial stages of his career, Duxion had to move to Colombo to find an opportunity due the situation in the north. But today, engineers from Jaffna peninsula can contribute towards building cutting edge products & solutions while working from their home soil.
Micro image's purpose is to "Continuously innovate in its chosen domains to build products and services which positively impacts the world". The company is poised to pursue this by empowering and fostering a unique team of minds to develop best in class Enterprise Software solutions, leveraging futuristic technology.
