After a period known as the “Moral Order”, the Opportunist (1879–98) or Radical Republic (1898–1914) set up a large number of reforms in all areas, which include among others: a law on primary education (1881–2); a law on freedom of the press (1881); the restoration of the law on divorce (1884); a law allowing Trades Unions (1884); and a law on the separation of Church and State (1905). 1870 France Travelling From 1870 onwards, as the peripheries around the big French cities like Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux and Marseille start growing, they develop into a real suburban belt around the city.

The border of the sawn cultivated land had been pushed westwards under the pressure of the nomadic tribes from the east. Several reasons are suggested for this decline, including maladministration and the taxation policies of the Ottoman Empire. Some of the regions south of Ajlun, including Amman area, and along the escarpment of the Jordan valley were almost completely abandoned. Recovery starts during the last quarter of the 19th century. 1860 Italy Cities And Urban Spaces The unification of Italy leads to urban expansion outside the old city walls, which have lost their defensive value.

URL: http://tiny.cc/AR813 Review by Molly Geidel, University of Manchester his is a fascinating and timely collection of articles on sport and diplomacy, focusing most closely on how athletics met Cold War maneuvering in the 1970s. Along with a brief introduction by editors T Hallvard Notaker, Giles Scott-Smith, and David J. Snyder, Anne Blaschke provides a nuanced account of how track athletes came to represent U.S. interests during the Cold War and began to resist their status as national symbols; Scott Laderman traces the convergences of surfing and international diplomacy in Japan and Indonesia; Joseph Eaton carefully considers how Asian leaders and diplomats leveraged their participation in the 1980 Olympic boycott to improve relations with the United States and otherwise achieve varying diplomatic goals; and John Soares convincingly argues that Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau’s administration used hockey diplomacy to demonstrate a degree of distance from the United States and closeness to the Soviet Union. The section also contains two fascinating commentaries. Mario Del Pero considers the range of relationships the articles suggest between athletic contests and international relations, while Shanon Fitzpatrick draws attention to important themes. She notes how these articles

Petre Filipovski developed his own recognisable style of wood carving depicting scenes from the Old and New Testaments in which biblical figures were rendered wearing traditional costumes of Macedonia. The iconostasis also depicts the artists who created it as their “signature”. 1834 Republic of Macedonia Music, Literature, Dance And Fashion (FYROM) The birth in Ohrid of Kuzman Shapkarev (1834–1909), eminent Macedonian folklorist, ethnographer, educator and author of textbooks. Owing to his collecting activities a great deal of Macedonian intangible heritage was spared from oblivion. He was a teacher in Ohrid, Bitola, Prilep and Kukush. Later he worked and lived in Sofia. Although his collections of oral folk literature were published as Bulgarian, most of his works originated from Macedonia. 1842 Republic of Macedonia Fine And Applied Arts (FYROM) The portrait of Gjurchin Kokale, founder of the Church of St George in Lazaropole, is painted inside the church by Dicho Krstevic Zograph. It is one of the earliest known portraits in Macedonia. In 1854 this prolific artist painted the icon of Archpriest Samoil from the Treskavec Monastery near Prilep. 1860 Republic of Macedonia Fine And Applied Arts (FYROM) The icon “Seven Holy Teachers” (Sedmochislenitzi) is painted by the most significant representative of Christian religious art in Macedonia, Dicho Krstevic Zograph, at the peak of his creativity.

  • Entering Our 25Th Year
    Magazine of the Men’s Senior and Men’s Adult Baseball Leagues 25th Anniversary Issue Entering Our 25th Year To: All MSBL/MABL League Members I have some very exciting news to share with you about the evolution of the Men’s Senior Base- ball League (MSBL) and the Men’s Adult Baseball League (MABL) in this, our 25th anniversary. To start our 25th year and build a foundation for the future of MSBL/MABL, we have decided to transition from hard print, HardBall Magazine to a new online Web Portal. HardBall Magazine, the offi cial magazine of the Men’s Senior Baseball League and the Men’s Adult Baseball League, has chronicled the amazing growth of the MSBL from its roots, with four teams on Long Island 27 years ago (1986), to over 3,400 teams nationwide today. Through stories on its players, growth of its leagues, calendars of events, tournament coverage, wonderful personal league stories and the many generous occasions where they support each other, HardBall helped create a strong sense of community from across the country. We need to overwhelmingly thank Jackie Piro and Jeff McGaw for their continued excellent work and contributions that will always be remembered. Many decisions in life are very diffi cult. With the onset of our 25th year anniversary (1988-2012), and with the changing time in technology, we are now making a very signifi cant investment in our new website. This decision was reached with input and consultation from over 40 league Presi- dents who unanimously felt the timing was right and will benefi t all members.
