Lawrence Rowe ‘He was a hero here’ IT’S EASY to feel anonymous in the Fort Lauderdale sprawl. Shopping malls, car yards and hotels dominate the eyeline for miles. The vast concrete expanses have the effect of dissipating the city’s intensity, of stripping out emotion. The Gallery One Hilton Fort Lauderdale is a four-star monolith minutes from the Atlantic Ocean. Lawrence Rowe, a five-star batsman in his prime, is seated in the hotel lounge area. He has been trading off the anonymity of southern Florida for the past 35 years, an exile from Kingston, Jamaica, the highly charged city that could no longer tolerate its stylish, contrary hero. Florida is a haven for Jamaican expats; it’s a short 105-minute flight across the Caribbean Sea. Some of them work at the hotel. Bartender Alyssa, a 20-something from downtown Kingston, is too young to know that the neatly groomed septuagenarian she’s serving a glass of Coke was once her country’s most storied sportsman.

  • Norm to the International Community's Response to the Humanitarian
    Application of the ‘Responsibility to Protect’ norm to the International Community’s Response to the Humanitarian Crises in Zimbabwe and Darfur. by Patrick Dzimiri Student Number: 28457600 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree: Doctor Philosophiae (DPhil) International Relations in the Department of Political Sciences at the UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA FACULTY OF HUMANITIES SUPERVISOR: DR YK. SPIES February 2016 DECLARATION I hereby declare that the dissertation submitted for Doctor Philosophiae (DPhil) International Relations at the University of Pretoria, apart from the help of the recognised, is my own work and has not been formerly submitted to another university for a degree. Patrick Dzimiri February 2016. Signature………………………. Date……………………… i ABSTRACT The Responsibility to Protect (RtoP) is an interdisciplinary normative framework that reconceptualises state sovereignty as a responsibility rather than a right. It obliges states to protect their people from humanitarian catastrophe, and in the event of state failure or unwillingness to heed this responsibility, requires of the broader international community to assume the residual duty to protect. When the principles of RtoP were endorsed by world leaders at the United Nations’ 2005 World Summit, it seemed as though the normative regime was gaining currency in international relations. However, the operationalization of RtoP continued to be dogged by controversy and conceptual ambiguity. This prompted UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon in January 2009 to appeal to the international community to strengthen the “doctrinal, policy and institutional life” of the norm. This study responds to Ban’s call and seeks to complement efforts of scholars across the world to refine the conceptual parameters of RtoP.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • Unified Team Golf Croquet Tournament Rules Special Olympics of CT and RI Unified Team; Athlete and Teammate And, If Applicable, Non-Playing Coach
    Unified Team Golf Croquet Tournament Rules Special Olympics of CT and RI Unified Team; Athlete and Teammate and, if applicable, non-playing Coach. The Court and Equipment. SOCT uses a 50' x 40' court (Figure 1) or approximately a USCA full court divided in half. The four corner wickets are measured in 10' from each boundary. The two center wickets are measured 10' from the center stake. The interior width of each wicket should be no more than 3 3/a inches. There are six wickets, one stake, four corner posts or flags, and four balls. Each player needs a mallet; mallets can be shared. Tt is possible to play on an ordinary lawn with an inexpensive croquet set. The typical USCA competition game is played with higher-quality equipment on the flattest lawn with the shortest grass available (resembling a grass carpet, golf putting green or lawn bowling green). Look for a croquet set that has sturdy rectangular wickets, mallets sized for adults (about three feet high), and heavy, solid balls. A 9-wicket croquet set can be modified for 6-wicket games. ~►n Outline of the Game. Unified Golf Croquet is played between teams: blue and black balls versus red and yellow balls. In Unified team competition, Athletes will always begin the game first. One Athlete will play the blue ball, with Teammate playing the black ball, and one Athlete will play the red ball, with Teammate Figure 1: Court Setup playing the yellow ball. Each player plays the same color ball throughout the game. Teams may have anon-playing Coach.

  • Justice Qayyum's Report
    PART I BACKGROUND TO INQUIRY 1. Cricket has always put itself forth as a gentleman’s game. However, this aspect of the game has come under strain time and again, sadly with increasing regularity. From BodyLine to Trevor Chappel bowling under-arm, from sledging to ball tampering, instances of gamesmanship have been on the rise. Instances of sportsmanship like Courtney Walsh refusing to run out a Pakistani batsman for backing up too soon in a crucial match of the 1987 World Cup; Imran Khan, as Captain calling back his counterpart Kris Srikanth to bat again after the latter was annoyed with the decision of the umpire; batsmen like Majid Khan walking if they knew they were out; are becoming rarer yet. Now, with the massive influx of money and sheer increase in number of matches played, cricket has become big business. Now like other sports before it (Baseball (the Chicago ‘Black-Sox’ against the Cincinnati Reds in the 1919 World Series), Football (allegations against Bruce Grobelar; lights going out at the Valley, home of Charlton Football club)) Cricket Inquiry Report Page 1 Cricket faces the threat of match-fixing, the most serious threat the game has faced in its life. 2. Match-fixing is an international threat. It is quite possibly an international reality too. Donald Topley, a former county cricketer, wrote in the Sunday Mirror in 1994 that in a county match between Essex and Lancashire in 1991 Season, both the teams were heavily paid to fix the match. Time and again, former and present cricketers (e.g. Manoj Prabhakar going into pre-mature retirement and alleging match-fixing against the Indian team; the Indian Team refusing to play against Pakistan at Sharjah after their loss in the Wills Trophy 1991 claiming matches there were fixed) accused different teams of match-fixing.

    T.N.E.B.ENGINEERS’ SANGAM SALUTES THE CRICKETING GENIOUS SACHIN TENDULKAR FOR HIS FABULOUS CONTRIBUTION TO THE GAME OF CRICKET. WE PRAY FOR THE GOOD HEALTH AND HAPPINESS TO THE GENIOUS AND HIS FAMILY. CONGRATULATIONS FOR MANY MORE SUCCESS AND RECORDS. A life in brief Born: 24 April 1973, Mumbai, India. Family: Married Anjali in 1995, paediatrician and daughter of a Gujarati industrialist. They have two children, Sara and Arjun. Education: Attended Sharadashram Vidyamandir High School in Mumbai. Has been a professional cricketer from the age of 15. Career: Scored a century on his first-class debut for Bombay – at 15 the youngest Indian ever to do so. At 16, in 1989, he made his Test debut against Pakistan, the third- youngest player to play Test cricket. More than 20 years on the statistics abound. Tendulkar's 166 Test matches put him second on the all-time list, two behind Australia's Steve Waugh. Last month he became the first batsman to pass 13,000 Test runs. His 47 Test centuries are a record. (Australia's Ricky Ponting his next on the list with 39.) In one-day internationals he has scored more runs than anybody – 17,598. At 37, there is no talk of retirement and he plans to play in next year's World Cup. Sachin Tendulkar Records, Sachin Tendulkar World Records, Sachins ODI And Test Records. Test Cricket Game Appearances: On his Test debut, Sachin Tendulkar was the third youngest debutant (16y 205d).
