Ahram Online - Rediscovering Sheikh Youssef Al-Manyalawy (1847-1911)
Ahram Online - Rediscovering Sheikh Youssef Al-Manyalawy (1847-1911) http://english.ahram.org.eg/NewsContentPrint/32/0/24518/Folk/0/Redis... Amira Noshokaty, Wednesday 19 Oct 2011 Al-Manyalawy: Icon of Egyptian musical renaissance, master of the spiritual art of Inshad chants This week Egypt marks the centennial of Sheikh Youssef Al-Manyalawy’s (1847-1911) death with a three-day event that includes seminars, music workshops, a concert as well as CDs and books to commemorate this musical icon. The celebration is the brainchild of the Foundation for Arab Music Archiving and Research (AMAR) in collaboration with the National Centre for Theatre Music and Folk Arts, as well as the foreign relations bureau of the Egyptian Ministry of Culture. A key voice in the Egyptian musical renaissance, (Mohammed Ali’s reign - 1930), Sheikh Youssef Al-Manyalawy’s brilliant voice was among the few that chanted in the Khedival courts, the famous Azbakeya theatres, and called the dawn prayers at Al-Manyal mosques. According to AMAR’s book titled Youssef Al-Manyalawy, Singer of the Arabic Renaissance, His Artworks and Era (Dar Al-Saqi , 2011) by Frederic Lagrange, Mohsen Sowa and Mustapha Saeed, Al-Manyalawy is one of the great Arabic singers of the nineteenth century. He was a friend and competitor of music icon Abdou Al-Hamouly and was often referred to by record companies as the ‘Caruso of the Orient’ (Enrico Caruso (1873-1921) was a grand opera singer at the time). Born in Upper Egypt and raised in Cairo on Manyal El-Roda Island, he studied religion at Al-Azhar, and learnt the foundations of Inshad (religious chants) first hand from the masters of the spiritual art, such as Sheikh Khalil Moharam.

The CBD is located in downtown areas, where there are mixed-use buildings that were established long ago and partly accommodate shops and stores. The major sub-centers in the main agglomeration are Shobra, Abasia, Zamalek, Heliopolis, Nasr city, Maadi in Cairo governorate and Mohandeseen, Dokki, Giza in Giza governorate.

Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: EGY31877 Country: Egypt Date: 7 June 2007 Keywords: Egypt – Homosexuals This response was prepared by the Country Research Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Questions 1. Please give an update on the current situation for homosexuals in Egypt. RESPONSE 1. Please give an update on the current situation for homosexuals in Egypt. Cases of arrest, entrapment over the internet, and the torture of homosexuals by Egyptian security personal continued to be reported on into late 2006. These were not at the high levels that occurred during the intense crackdown between the late 1990s and 2004 and involved the highly public Queen Boat arrests and trails of 2001, events which prompted the March 2004 publication by Human Rights Watch (HRW) of In a Time of Torture: The Assault on Justice in Egypt’s Crackdown on Homosexual Conduct. The reduction in reported cases may be explained, according to a number of reports, by the intentional retreat of homosexuals from overt visibility within Egyptian society, as well as an easing in government action following the HRW publication (events during the period from 1999 to 2004 are covered in RRT Country Research 2005, Research Response EGY17595, 11 October – Attachment 1; and DIMIA Country Information and Protection Support Section 2005, Issues Brief: Homosexuals and Transsexuals in Egypt, September – Attachment 2; for the “underground retreat” of homosexuals after the crackdown, see reports in RRT Country Research 2005, Research Response EGY17595, 11 October – Attachment 1; and for the government’s response to the HRW 2004 report see references in the recent article (quoted below) by Azimi, N.

Heavy Metals in Drinking Water and Their Environmental Impact on Human Health
H. M. Salem et al. / ICEHM2000, Cairo University, Egypt, September, 2000, page 542- 556 HEAVY METALS IN DRINKING WATER AND THEIR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ON HUMAN HEALTH Hanaa, M., Salem*’** , Eweida, A., Eweida* and Azza Farag*** *Geology Department, Faculty of Sciences, Cairo University, Egypt **Center for Environmental Hazards Mitigation, Cairo University, Egypt *** Ain Shams University Hospital E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT There is a relationship between chronic diseases and geologic environment. Geochemical environment is indeed a significant factor in the serious health problems. In the last 20 years, many people have suffered from these diseases that led to serious studies to find out the relationship between drinking water and chronic diseases. The chemistry of drinking water commonly has been cited as an important factor in many diseases. A strong relationship between contaminated drinking water with heavy metals from some of the Great Cairo Cities, Egypt and chronic diseases such as renal failure, liver cirrhosis, hair loss, and chronic anemia has been identified in this study. These diseases are apparently related to contaminant drinking water with heavy metals such as Pb, Cd, Cu, Mo, Ni, and Cr. Renal failure is related to contaminat drinking water with lead and cadmium, liver cirrhosis to copper and molybdenum, hair loss to nickel and chromium, and chronic anemia to copper and cadmium. Studies of these diseases suggest that abnormal incidence in specific areas is related to industrial wastes and agriculture activities that have released hazardous and toxic materials in the groundwater and thereby led to the contamination of drinking water in these areas. INTRODUCTION The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the contaminant drinking water and its impact on human health in some of the Great Cairo Cities, Egypt.
