Author Bio
H.A. Rey
Hans Augusto Reyersbach, later shortened to Rey, fought with the German army during World War I, after which he moved to Brazil. There he met and married Margaret Waldstein, an author and artist. The couple moved to Paris in 1936, but the Nazi invasion forced them to flee for the United States. Rey's first book, CECILY G. AND THE NINE MONKEYS, marked the first, very casual, appearance of his most famous character--Curious George. That character took the spotlight in the book CURIOUS GEORGE, which was published in 1941. In addition to his four books about Curious George, Rey also created such memorable characters as the extraordinarily long dachshund in PRETZEL and the resourceful kangaroo in KATY NO POCKETS. Since H. A. Rey died, his wife Margaret Rey and an illustrator working in H. A. Rey's style have created several more books featuring Curious George.

If A, Then B: How the World Discovered Logic is an engaging but somewhat controversial social history of logic. Written by two current master teachers in New York University's Liberal Studies [Great Books] Program, this work places the rise and development of key logical systems and ideas in their varied social, cultural, and intellectual contexts. It assumes very little prior acquaintance with logic or deductive argument, but those (becoming) familiar with the fundamentals of both are its most likely audience. The focus of the book, as the subtitle indicates, is primarily historical, though philosophical issues (proper foundations of valid argumentation, Wittgenstein's linguistic turn, Kuhn's paradigmatic view of scientific progress, the relation of logic and religious faith) occasionally take their turn on center stage. It is not intended as a textbook in logic, nor does it aim to supplant standard histories of logic such as those by Kneale and Kneale or Bochenski. Its approach is rather to present logic as a human creation motivated by socio-economic and political trends and whose larger purposes go beyond technical innovations and refinements. Without denying the importance of individual ingenuity, the authors offer further levels of explanation connected to the central concerns and tendencies of the cultures in which the systems of logic are embedded. This gives the book a rather unique position among works exploring the origins and historical development of logic.
Deductive logic can be traced back to Aristotle, who first analyzed the validity of arguments in terms of logical form. It is generally recognized that his system of syllogistic logic was prompted by both negative and positive developments in Greek thought. Like his teacher Plato before him, Aristotle was highly critical of the questionable practices of the Sophists; testing arguments for validity provides one with an incontestable analytic tool for rejecting counterfeit reasoning. But Aristotle was also positively impressed by the progress and axiomatic organization of mathematics, which made use of deductive argumentation from its first principles of axioms and definitions. His epistemology and its supporting system of logic were designed to promote that sort of pursuit in all fields of scientific thought. Euclid's Elements, written a generation or so later, became the showcase for this sort of approach, though its reasoning was not strictly syllogistic.
Shenefelt and White expand the typical historical matrix of motivating causes for logic by giving primary attention to a variety of natural (the unique geography of Greece) and socio-political (the democratic follies of the Athenian Assembly, armed by Sophist teaching) factors behind the development and acceptance of Aristotle's logic. Philosophical and intellectual factors are also taken into account, but the authors make no real attempt to integrate Aristotle's logic into his epistemology or his overall philosophy. As a consequence, they fail to note some significant ideological differences between syllogistic logic and later systems of logic.
Stoic logic, which focused on disjunctive and conditional arguments, is presented in If A, then B as moving away from static philosophical classification (Aristotle) toward personal and ethical decision-making (Chrysippus), where choices must be made between various alternatives and their consequences drawn out. While later scholars became familiar with the logical forms the Stoics identified, such as Disjunctive Syllogism, Modus Ponens, and Hypothetical Syllogism, they tended to view these as minor additions to Aristotle's system, which already had a certain completeness to it. Consequently, philosophers as late as Kant still thought that Aristotle had said nearly the last word on logic.
Although 17th- and 18th-century thinkers reacted negatively to Aristotelian logic with its emphasis on syllogistic reasoning about terms, proposing experimentation and inductive procedures instead as the right way to advance natural science, no new system of logic was developed during this time period. The first genuine alternatives to Aristotle's logic appeared during the last half of the 19th century with the work of Boole, De Morgan, Peirce, Frege, Peano, and others. If A, then B discusses these new developments mainly under the general rubric of formalized symbolic logic, though it notes that the distinctly different systems of Sentential Logic (using combinatorial truth-functional connectives) and Predicate Logic (introducing relations and quantifiers) both arose during this time period.
In keeping with their emphasis on social history, the authors assert that symbolic logic is "a consequence of an age of machinery" (205), brought on by the Industrial Revolution in Great Britain, Germany, and Italy. Witnessing the "immense power of mechanical operations" (214), logicians were themselves encouraged to adopt a mechanical approach, advocating reasoning by manipulating symbols in a formal way according to fixed rules. This big-picture approach glosses over some significant perspectival differences among logicians and it fails to adequately credit intellectual influences, but it provides a way to link what is happening in logic to what is going on in society. The authors realize that the existence of parallel features in society and logic is no proof of causality and that connecting developments in logic to trends in society is necessarily conjectural (223–224), but they do want to maintain that large-scale mechanization of industry is at least one of the causes that spurred on the new developments in logic (215, 224). They acknowledge personal and intellectual factors behind the innovations as well (the formal analytic trend in British mathematics, Frege's desire to ground the certainty of arithmetic upon rigorous logical foundations), but they insist on giving significant weight to social movements.
Given the synoptic scope of this book, one can easily challenge aspects of the various theses put forward by Shenefelt and White, and there is certainly room for adding more nuance and complexity to their explanations, but the authors have at least provoked their readers into considering elementary logic within a fuller real-life context than is usually the case in historical treatments of the topic. Students may need to be cautioned to think critically about their claims, but If A, then B provides a fascinating springboard for discussing how and why logic developed in various cultures.
The book as a whole is probably most suitable as supplementary reading for an introductory logic course offered in a philosophy department, but it could also provide the basis for some interesting contextual discussions or essay writing by students studying elementary mathematical logic or learning how to do proofs in a transition course. And, of course, the book provides a new resource for those interested in studying aspects of the history of mathematics and logic. The book only takes the story of logic up to about 1900, however, so readers wanting to learn how logic became even more completely intertwined with foundations of mathematics in the 20th century will have to look elsewhere.

'Air strike' on Ukraine city is crime by Kiev against its own people, says Russia
MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Russian Foreign Ministry said on Monday that a reported air strike on a government building in the eastern Ukrainian city of Luhansk that left at least two people dead was a crime by Kiev against its people.
"The authorities in Kiev have committed another crime against their own people," a statement on the ministry's website said. "Everything that has taken place (there) indicates the downright unwillingness of the Kiev authorities to move towards seeking ways for national accord in the country."
At least two people were killed and several injured on Monday in the explosion in Luhansk, which separatists controlling the eastern Ukrainian city said was the result of an air strike by the Ukrainian military.
This was denied by the Kiev side, which said it was caused by separatists who had launched a heat-seeking rocket at a Ukrainian plane but the missile had zeroed in instead on the rebel-occupied regional administration building.

Francesco, the owner, is just superb. Very welcoming, very gentle, very caring. I was so lucky he even made it to come for me to the airport. I stayed there for 5 days and it felt like home there. Room was GREAT: big, comfy, clean, well-equipped... and kitchen is a plus. Since it is out of the "muri", it is located in a peacefully quiet place, from where you can walk anywhere. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Francesco, the owner, was very welcoming and incredibly helpful in telling us where to go/ what not to miss. He even allowed us to keep the keys for an extra day without charge so that we could leave our bags and pick them up at our leisure. The rooms were huge and perfectly clean. I cannot recommend Delfo enough, we will definitely be returning!

I travelled in May which meant the Hostel was pretty empty...which was great as everywhere was immaculately clean and tidy. This is a great place for budget travellers. The kitchen adds the option of cooking your own food, and there is a massive supermarket near by. It is a little walk from the more central parts of town, but the area is safe and quite nice anyway. Staff are great and very helpful with ideas for seeing Pisa. Although the rooms are a bit dated, old beds a bit creeky and doors noisy, I would definitely recommend this place and I would stay here again.

I just can't really appreciate this. I'm a strong believer that intelligence comes from how hard you try, which means studying and working hard to get good grades, especially on exams. I've always thought that you get out of something what you put into it. This quote kind of allows people to justify not trying their hardest to get the best marks, which is a bad idea. Really, we should post things that boost confidence, things that tell young students that if you truly try, and put your best effort in, you will get what you want out of it. Inspirational, motivational quotes that give a boost of determination is what is needed; not self-justifying words that encourage the idea that failing is something that is redeemable. It doesn't instill a good and competitive attitude to give someone who has failed a winner's ribbon. Yes, a self-esteem boost feels good, but it dulls your character, at least i.m.o.
which reminds me, i should really go study. ****

i never and i mean NEVER touched a book in high school to study for a test and i aced them all the time. i think that you have a point with working hard to study and intelligence but at the same time there's ALWAYS going to be exceptions. Like people that really do try their hardest to study and spend hours doing it and still barely pass and the other end of the spectrum like me.

The home plugs are very simple but effective, but obviously there is a cost involved. They are easily available on Amazon and many other outlets. The one thing I would say if you choose that route is that they come in varying speeds, 85Mbps, 200Mbps and I think 500Mbps. I have some I bought from Ebuyer and they are only the 85Mbps ones but they worked perfectly well with Xbox live. I personally have never played online, but I set my son's Xbox up with the home plug connection to my router and he never had any issue with connection or performance speed, so I'm not entirely sure there is any great need to go for the higher speed and slightly higher cost, but obviously, if budget is fine then I would think it's no harm to go for the fastest ones to suit your budget, but not essential.
If you just want to play games yourself, then I would strongly advise using a TV rather than your laptop. The games are much better on the big screen, especially if you have an HD TV, and I think all these game consoles are primarily aimed at TV play. It's a matter of a minute or so connecting it up to the TV.

"If you just want to play games yourself"
Sorry, what I meant there was if you want to play offline just using the console locally and NOT online.

"Songs of the Unsung—It's about time! Horace Tapscott was one of the first guys doing it in the community. His life has been a big influence on me. He made sure younger and older people played music. He is one of the true giants of this music in the way he played it, wrote it, and lived it."—Billy Higgins
"During those days the greatest thing happened to me. I got something I needed when I was on the radio . . . . While I was being interviewed, the telephone rang. It was a woman calling from almost her deathbed in the hospital to tell me that my music had helped to heal her, someone with a real soft voice, sobbing as she spoke, like she had been under some kind of dark cloth, saying that finally some light came in because of the sounds.
'Thank you so very much for playing and please don't stop.' I never knew her name, never met her. I don't know if she's still alive or not. But what she said to me justified everything that I believed in. There wasn't anything happening moneywise and sometimes you're down in the dumps, but you have to pull your head up. When things like that happen, those little small things, well, that was the idea of the sounds in the first place."—from Chapter Twelve
"This is a splendid book, a wonderfully accessible first person narrative by an important and unusual figure in the history of jazz and the history of Black Los Angeles. Tapscott has an important story to tell and he conveys his experiences, opinions, and philosophy clearly through an engaging and conversational style filled with rich descriptions and witty observations."—George Lipsitz, author of Dangerous Crossroads: Popular Music, Postmodernism, and the Poetics of Place

Energy price hikes to be felt in tourism sectorCNA April 24, 2012, 12:33 am TWN TAIPEI -- The travel industry complained yesterday that the government's recent decision to raise fuel prices and electricity rates will have a negative impact on the industry due to increased operational costs.
Yao Ta-kuang, chairman of the Taiwan Travel Agent Association, said the price hikes will be especially felt by tour bus and hotel businesses because they rely heavily on energy. "We expect the tourism industry to react to the situation quickly," Yao said, adding that significant surges in the cost of travel deals are likely in the next quarter. For instance, he said, the daily rental fee for a tour bus could increase by as much as NT$1,000 (US$34), while an average rise of NT$1,000 is expected in hotel room rates. Meanwhile, fees for inbound travel groups could go up by 5 percent, Yao predicted. Yao's point of view was shared by a member of the Hotel Association of the R.O.C., who complained that the government's decision will put the nation's tourism development at risk.
3 Comments April 24, 2012 Carl.cklin@ Energy price also hikes every sector in business and people's life. Employees in a private company or organization are facing the income shortage which still stayed on the standard of salary 20 years ago. People have to find another way for higher living cost from now. Life is getting harder and harder! April 25, 2012 elumpen@ An NT$50 increase in hotel room energy charges causes a NT$1000 price hike? Can anyone say "profiteering"?In any case, energy prices have nothing at all to do with the government. Governments that subsidize wasteful and lazy behaviour are just storing up pain for the future, as people are now starting to find out. April 25, 2012 gandalf2000@ @elumpen: You are totally right. Governments should not anymore subsidize Taiwan people's waste of resources and energy. I'm afraid the energy hikes are still not enough. It is still chilly inside most shopping malls so that people need to wear jackets, and cars trucks and buses are still idling on the road side with engines running. |

The new htc broadcast the experience XL utilizing Music Mp3, all of us visit hands-on
You may well know the mug golf shot belonging to the a number of air leaks now we have revealed within the Runnymede codename, and yet that cell phone as well has a distinct resemblance of this not long ago reported The brand new htc Titan. It is really chiseled via a virtually similar 3.7-inch obstruct associated with produced metallic, comes with the exact same magnificent 8.9mm (7.39-inch) fullness, equivalent 800×480 Very Liquid crystal display as well as exactly the same 6 mega-pixel butt video camera component. And yet there are actually major variations as well: in the first place, this back packs HTC's Beats By Dr Dre vaunted Surpasses Stereo audio accredited out of Dr. Dre. Also, along with do most people mention this thing can be an Robot as opposed to a Home's windows Mobile? Those two details by yourself result in the XL another type of animal wholly, so read more for that report having entire requirements additionally this hands-on impressions.
Rather in comparison with assessing the following cellular phone towards Titan, lots of individuals will finally be turning over "hey, could not we find out about the Experience XE?Inch Without a doubt you does, and that contact even physical activities Mobile and Tones Audio tracks just like this kind of different XL. An alternative vital similarity might be that the XL sad to say isn't really arriving at Usa possibly — those of you for which usually part worldwide will have to be thanks for some corresponding or perhaps a lot better style in the near future. And yet all those things aside, HTC reckons thirdly cellphone included in the Experience family tree is made for Beats By Dre UK a somewhat different types of owner: a particular that has pleased to admit sure trade-offs to acquire that will extremely even larger monitor.
For a fabulous start up, all the XL's Qualcomm MSM8255 One particular.5GHz processer should be only single-core, although the impression XE is certainly dual-core subjected to testing by simply world wide web.cheapmulberrybags-uk.com. This will give the actual XL for getting away along with a slightly smaller power (1600mAh as opposed to 1730mAh) and it's likely connected to the undeniable fact that all the XL is usually A person.4mm more delicate when compared to the XE — a major element if you're positioning and even pocketing phones of the scale. Several other size is 132.5mm upright and even 85.7mm extensive.
Our original perception is that often lots of individuals encourage this specific trade-off: the huge screen seems fantastic, although it can be dpi is pretty small, in addition to thinness causes it to be beautifully sensible. Being single-core rarely developed any sort of difference to a several fun-based activities we were treated to time and energy to strive. A common decrease of this specific respect was in fact 1080p online video tracking, since the XL's model can simply deal with 720p — gasoline, we are able to deal with that.
Speaking within the digicam, we had the opportunity creep some check photographs, and also nevertheless most of us were not able to hold their hands on typically the pictures, we had an adequate amount of to get relatively believing that typically the f2.Two, 28mm camcorder with combined Driven expensive acts like this over the Titan — knowning that undoubtedly depends being an bonus because Titan's surveillance camera is definitely very easy, changes direct exposure effortlessly, stresses smartly and also can take terrific needles. Typically the front-facer offers a first rate 1.Various megapixels.
Conversely, a number of hardships are a lot easier harder to stay at by using: the particular 16 gb connected with onboard storage (beside 768MB involving Good old ram) is actually non-expandable due to there being virtually no microSD card video slot machine. In addition, merely all-around Twelve.6GB with storage devices remains 100 % free to your owner. Because mostly appearing marketed as being a music-focused gadget, you speak with an important omission. Virtually anyone who is music variety is bigger as compared to 12 jobs may instantly go apart.
That provides usa effectively upon this end findings, of which worry Tones Songs. We're going to have comprehensive low-down on that program (device and / or not any attention-grabber?) in the very near upcoming, and you will at the same time research each of our final thoughts involving Music Mp3 over the XE tested from online world.cheapmulberrybags-uk.net. Employing comparison to its this XL especially, Beats Stereo will mean two specific things: being able to power up your Dre-approved audio page, along with a list of really nice both equally Dre-approved earphones. These kinds of elements head out hand-in-hand, since the whole idea from the noise summary is that often it is actually intended to be specifically adapted in the headphones, to produce a top-notch aural Power Beats By Dre practical experience.
The XL includes The brand new htc YourBeats in-ears (aka iBeats) while common, what are the exact same 'phones we all tried while using XE. However there may even be a restricted format XL that will incorporate Tones Alone headphones, what are the vivid white over-ears in our images — coordinating any whiteness within the handset (you cannot find any african american plan, for those who were being wanting to know) examined through web.ecbuying.internet. Visually, typically the Solos will never be towards people's seems since they are more noticable as opposed to the fire-red YourBeats, though on the contrary some love that seem to be. As well, they do smart fantastic and are also cozy to utilize.
Search for this unique cellular phone to start starting to be you can buy from first Don't forget national — we definitely revealed will probably be visiting Vodafone within the uk.

Author Bio
Vince Flynn
Each one of Vince Flynn's political thrillers has landed on the bestseller list, and he counts among his millions of readers many Washington insiders--including former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. Flynn, the fifth of seven children, was born in St. Paul Minnesota, and although he suffered from severe dyslexia, in 1988 he earned a degree in economics from the University of St. Thomas. "I came of age in the 1980s," he once told an interviewer, explaining his staunch political conservatism. "That's when Ronald Reagan gets shot, the Pope gets shot. We've just finished the hostage deal over in Iran. There's the Beirut Embassy bombing and then Pan Am Lockerbie. Then the Berlin Wall falls. So that's my decade." Flynn began his career as a marketing specialist with Kraft Foods, but within a few years he decided to join the U.S. Marines. The week before he was due to start officers' training, he has told reporters, he was disqualified due to a childhood seizure disorder. Demoralized, he found another office job, but in the evenings he began penning a novel, TERM LIMITS, which he self-published in 1997. The book quickly caught the notice of a major publishing company, which reissued it the following year. In 1999 Flynn published TRANSFER OF POWER, the first of his novels to feature renegade counter-terrorism agent Mitch Rapp. The character has proven to be a favorite of intelligence professionals and members of the military, and Flynn has been widely praised for both his research and prescience. His books are, on occasion, so accurate-MEMORIAL DAY (2004), for example, described a raid very much like the one that ultimately killed Osama bin Laden in 2011--that they have been vetted by the Pentagon before their release, and they are sometimes read by the Secret Service to identify possible security lapses.

The collaboration between George Strait and Alan Jackson on the song "Murder On Music Row" for Strait's "Latest Greatest Straitest Hits" album was a rousing success. Fans of both country superstars couldn't get enough of the tune. Now fans will have another chance to hear the country crooners combine their talents again on a new Alan Jackson song.
At a press conference held July 12, Jackson revealed that he and Strait will be working together again on a new song he's written.
"I can't say it's totally right yet, [because] I haven't played it for him. But he's committed to do a song with me," said Jackson.
Alan also spoke about rumors that he'll be releasing a bluegrass album soon.
"We were planning on doing it, but now we're going to do this regular album. I don't think we'll get to them both. Maybe we'll throw a couple of bluegrass tunes on there."

This is one recipe which I wanted to share with my readers long back and I got the opportunity when we made this yesterday, as this is a very popular sweet made especially during diwali. I have seen many recipes for rava ladoo. This recipe was given to me by a Maharashtrian friend. I have tried this recipe before and the ladoos does turn out perfect and delicious!!
Ingredients-(makes around medium sized 25 ladoos)
Ingredients-(makes around medium sized 25 ladoos)
Rava/semolina- 2 cups
Sugar- 2 cups
Water- 1 cup
Cardamom powder- 1tsp
Cashew nuts- A handful broken to small bits
Ghee/clarified butter- 2tbsp
Warm Milk- Few drops Only if required
Melt the ghee in a pan. Add the cashewnuts and roast them till they are golden brown. Remove them and keep them aside. In the same pan, add the semolina and roast it till you get a nice aroma and the colour changes slightly. You may need to roast the rava for around 15 minutes. Remove and place the roasted semolina on a big plate.
Combine the water and sugar and heat on medium flame. Keep stirring till you get a one thread consistency.
Add the cardamom powder and roasted cashews to the roasted rava. Now pour the sugar syrup on it. Mix this with a spatula. When the heat is bearable, use your palms to combine everything together and wait for around 15 minutes, so that the sugar syrup is absorbed properly. It should be a little moist so that you can gather the mixture into a firm ball (ladoo). If you find it too dry, add a few drops of milk (this is done only if necessary).In case you find it too moist, wait for somemore time for the syrup to be absorbed completely. Press the semolina mixture using your fingers and palm and make small balls with it.

Jillie's age, In the TVM, Jillie was approximately 14-17 years old.
2gether performed Whoa's song "Rub One Out."
Jerry: We will be the hottest couple at the prom. (light flashes)
The light flash is probably a reference to Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window also starring James Stewart. In the end James Stewart flashes his camera at a murder which resulted in red flash.
Jerry (looking at Lita): [Lita lifts her hair up, looking like Erin]
This is probably a reference to Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo. In which James Stewart falls in love with a women (Kim Novak) who 'dies'. He then meets a girl who looks like her and tries to make her look like the deceased women.

Are you ready for positive energy, to experience laughter and happiness... I am!
I like hanging out with family/friends, play/watch sports, work out, chill out, dining out, like to cook (all types of foods) and go to the beach. Diverse in my thoughts, i.e. culturally. With that said, what a man and woman can do together in a relationship is limitless. I'm looking for a woman who is strong in her beliefs, open minded, travel oriented, taking part in outdoor activities, and doesn't mind occasionally going to my son's activities (i.e. Little League Baseball/Basketball/Football/Soccer games). I volunteer my time coaching Little League Baseball. A woman's looks internally and externally are definitely a step in the right direction. I'm not on Match or for that matter anywhere else to have one night stands and not a big fan of drama. I am looking forward to having a great relationship with a classy, energetic, and balanced woman. May our lives today and beyond be positive, healthy, and happy!

Christmas Trees
Profile America — Friday, December 17th. Many U.S. families will go out this weekend to buy and put up their Christmas tree. While the use of evergreen trees to celebrate the winter season occurred even before the birth of Jesus, the first printed reference to a decorated tree was in Germany in 1531. Across the country, just over a fifth of households still put up and decorate a real tree, and almost half now use an artificial tree. The remaining one-third of households do not include a tree in their holiday observances. Christmas trees are grown in all 50 states, and each year's crop is worth more than $400 million. Oregon is the leading producer, while China leads in the production of artificial trees. You can find these and more facts about America from the U.S. Census Bureau online at <www.census.gov>.

Espanyol (1923–1997) |
Estadi de Sarrià (Catalan pronunciation: [əsˈtaði ðə səriˈa]) was a football stadium in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The stadium was the home of RCD Espanyol from 1923 to 1997. The stadium was located in the Barcelona district of Sarrià and has become a legendary place for the Catalan club.
Beginning of a legendary stadium[edit]
The stadium was named after the road in which it was constructed, which linked the ancient cities Barcelona and Sarria. Construction began on December 31, 1922 under the supervision of architect Matías Colmenares, and the cost was 170,000 pesetas. The initial forecast capacity was for 40,000 spectators, but due to the bankruptcy of the construction company the initial capacity was only for 10,000 spectators.
The opening game was played on February 18, 1923 with RCD Espanyol beating UE Sants 4-1, the first goal scored by Vicenç Tonijuan. In 1929 the club won its first Cup in Spain. On 10 February, at the Sarria stadium, 'Pitus' Prats scored the first goal of the first Spanish league title. The team currently stood above everyone "The Divine", Ricardo Zamora.[clarification needed] However, although the club won several Catalan Championships they had to wait until 1940 before winning their second cup in Spain.
Successive enlargements[edit]
In 1948, Espanyol under club president Paco Saenz, repurchased the stadium, which until then belonged to Riva family, for 5 million pesetas.
In 1951 terracing behind the south goal was demolished, and a new grandstand was built which was overlaid in 1956. In 1960 floodlights were installed.
During the sixties, several outstanding players such as Cayetano Re, Martial, Rodilla, Jose Maria and Peck played at the Sarria Stadium, but especially noteworthy were Ladislao Kubala (1963–1964) and Alfredo Di Stefano (1964–1967) who finished his career at the Sarria stadium.
After being relegated twice during the 1960s, the club recovered in the early 1970s with players like Daniel Solsona and Chilean Carlos Caszely.
Manuel Meler, the president at the time, completed the southern tier raised above the new gallery, installed the lower side and reconstructed the north stand, all in twelve years.
The 1980s and 1990s[edit]
1982 World Cup[edit]
The most memorable moments in the history of the Sarria stadium were when it hosted the 1982 FIFA World Cup. The stadium held the three matches of Group C in the second round, with three of the favourites for the cup playing in this group: Argentina (Diego Maradona, Mario Kempes, Daniel Passarella), Brazil (Zico, Socrates, Falcao, Eder) and eventual champions Italy (Dino Zoff, Claudio Gentile, Marco Tardelli, Paolo Rossi, Giancarlo Antognoni). The key game was the third in which Italy defeated Brazil 3-2, in a match widely regarded as one of the best ever played at a World Cup.
Other Events[edit]
The stadium held the first leg of the 1988 UEFA Cup Final, where Espanyol played Bayer Leverkusen.
Pink Floyd performed at the stadium during their A Momentary Lapse of Reason Tour on July 20, 1988 and three days later George Michael performed at the stadium with his Faith World Tour.
Sting performed at the stadium during The Soul Cages Tour on June 12, 1991.
The venue hosted some football matches at the 1992 Summer Olympics.[1]
1982 FIFA World Cup[edit]
The stadium was one of the venues of the 1982 FIFA World Cup, and held the following matches:
Date | Team #1 | Res. | Team #2 | Round |
1982-06-29 | Italy | 2–1 | Argentina | Group C (Second Round) |
1982-07-02 | Argentina | 1–3 | Brazil | Group C (Second Round) |
1982-07-05 | Italy | 3–2 | Brazil | Group C (Second Round) |
Demolition and sale[edit]
Unfortunately, the club's financial problems forced the company to sell the stadium to property developers. The last game played in Sarrià was against Valencia on June 21, 1997. Espanyol won 3-2 and the last goal was scored by then Valencia defender Ivan Campo. The club then played at the Montjuic Olympic Stadium until 2009, when it moved to the Estadi Cornellà-El Prat.

No matter how well-behaved your pet may be, there's always a chance that they could run away and get lost. Even in our technology-based society, the only tried-and-true way to help your pet home is by attaching an ID tag to their collar or harness.
This way, any passerby that finds your beloved animal can contact you and bring your pet home.
We've heard countless stories of pets being reunited with their families because of their ID tag and that's why we feel so strongly about outfitting your pet with a durable, easy to read tag.
We offer pet tags in three main styles: hanging tag, slide-on tag and rivet-on nameplate .
Hanging ID Tags
These are probably what you'd consider the most traditional form of dog tag. This tag attaches to a ring on your pet's collar with a split ring or s-hook and dangles below their neck.
We offer hanging tags in all kinds of colors, designs and shapes - from traditional metal round and bone tags to designer animal print.
Slide-On Tags
If your dog already has a collar, a slide-on tag is an alternative to the traditional hanging tag.
These nameplates are built to slide onto the open end of any collar in the traditional style (like a belt). If you hate the jingle of your pet's tags or are concerned the hanging tags may fall off with too much activity, this is a great option. If you don't have an open-ended collar but like the slide-on style, we also sell personalized collars with a built in slide-on tag.
Another plus with this tag is that it sits right on your pet's neck scruff. That way it's far easier to read should someone find your lost companion.
We offer these nameplates in brass or stainless steel in three collar width options.
Rivet-On Nameplates
Similar to the slide-on tags, the rivet-on collar nameplates are a great alternative to hanging tags if you hate the noise and are concerned about lost tags.
These tags come with installation instructions and rivets for you to install onto your pet's favorite leather, waterproof or nylon collar. Choose from standard stainless steel or brass plates or our sporting line of designs.
In addition to our tag options, we also have a wide selection of collars that have a nametag built directly into the collars. This means you don't have to worry about a hang tag falling off our loudly jingling. Plus, you can get a new collar that will look good for years to come! Our collar options are as follow:
Our ScruffTag collars are fashioned so that they sit comfortably on the "scruff" of your pet's neck. The tag is extremely easy to read, should your pet ever wander off. Our patented ScruffTag collars are available in traditional nylon, leather, biothane, reflective band, and waterproof Soft Grip.
As the name suggests, these collars are available with a plate riveted to the outer band of the collar. One of these rivet-on collars, Italian Leather, is our best-seller for cats and small dogs because it is chic, durable, and lightweight. You can also choose from a variety of rivet-on styles, such as signature leather, bison leather, Italian leather, waterproof SoftGrip, and biothane. Whether your pet is big or small, we've got a collar that fits.
Believe it or not, dogs aren't the only pets that can be outfitted with ID tags. We have made ID tags for all kinds of pets like cats, goats, cows and sheep.
Sometimes they also use collars on these pets or use the tags on their pens, blankets, and saddles. No matter the size of your pet, proper identification is always a good idea.
