Ireland boss Mick McCarthy feels Reid, who scored in Millwall's 4-0 win over Norwich last weekend, deserves his chance for the senior team after impressing for the Under-21s.
"Steven Reid deserves this chance," said McCarthy. "The lad has the ability to make an immediate impression although it is a huge step from the First Division to international level."
Crystal Palace striker Clinton Morrison will have to wait for his chance as he not been named in the starting line-up as was widely expected, but he should get his opportunity to make his debut from the bench.
Aston Villa defender Steve Staunton will win a record 90th cap and he will partner Richard Dunne in the centre of the Irish defence as McCarthy builds for the crucial World Cup qualifier against Holland next month.
Ireland captain Roy Keane is joined in midfield by Lee Carsley in the absence of Mark Kinsella, and Matt Holland.
In-form Leeds United striker Robbie Keane will lead the attack with Blackburn Rovers ace Damien Duff expected to support him in attack.
Full Republic of Ireland team:
Given (Newcastle United); G Kelly (Leeds United), Dunne (Manchester City), Staunton (Aston Villa), Harte (Leeds United); Reid (Millwall), Roy Keane (Manchester United), Carsley (Coventry), Kennedy (Wolves); Duff (Blackburn), Robbie Keane (Leeds United).

On 1 February 2017, ESPI hosted an event on the topic "India in Space: The Forward Look to International Cooperation" at the margins of the third day of the 54th session of the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee of UNCOPUOS. As ESPI prepares to publish a book with a focus on the Indian space programme and the potential for stronger future space cooperation between India and Europe in the space sector, this event highlighted those areas of cooperation that can prove mutually beneficial in the future on the basis of already existing collaborations between the world's largest democracies. Other key topics such as finding and building on common ground as well as overcoming hurdles that may inhibit a fruitful partnership were also discussed.
The following distinguished speakers, representing the Indian-, European-, French-, Italian- and German Space Agencies, contributed their valuable insights following the welcome address and introductory speech by ESPI Director Jean-Jacques Tortora:
Imtiaz Ali Khan, Space Counsellor and ISRO Liaison Officer in Europe gave an overview of India's space programme and the existing Indo-European joint projects while emphasizing the various commonalities between Europe and India which pave the way for stronger collaboration in the future.
Jean-Charles Bigot, ESA Administrator of the International Relations Department highlighted the word "partnership" as a fundamental principle of ESA and expressed a wish for cooperation on the basis that while it is not always easy due to various factors, "it's even more difficult to succeed alone".
Celine Bouhey-Klapisz, International Relations Advisor at CNES outlined the long standing cooperation between ISRO and CNES which is based on mutual trust and commitment with a primary focus on joint missions concerning climate change.
Sveva Iacovoni, Head of Multilateral Relations Office at ASI discussed India's ties with Italy in regards to space activity and stressed the importance of fortifying the relationship with ISRO whilst also alluding to the Open Universe Initiative in endorsing scientific- and astronomical data accessibility to all.
Marc Jochemich, Regional Manager at the International Cooperation Unit of DLR as the final speaker presented Germany's existing collaborations with India and underlined the significance of scientific exchange as well as the great benefits to be reaped by society as a whole in consequence of space-related cooperation.
Following the presentations, this well-attended event involved an enthusiastic discussion with the audience moderated by ESPI Director Jean-Jacques Tortora.

Section A - Prose
(Reading skill, Grammar, Note-making and Summary)
Q.1 (A) Read the following extract and answer the questions given below: (11M)
Growing up in Houston, Texas, Michael and his two brothers were imbued by their parents, Alexander and Lorraine – he an orthodontist, she s stockbroker – with the desire to learn and the drive to work hard. Even so, stories about the middle boy began to be told early. Like the time a saleswoman came asking to speak to "Mr. Michael Dell" about his getting a high school equivalency diploma. Moments later, eight-year-old Michael was explaining that he thought it might be a good idea to get high school out of the way. A few years later Michael had another good idea, to trade stamps by advertising in stamp magazines.
With the $2000 he made, he bought his first personal computer. Then he took it apart to figure out how it worked. In high school Michael had a job selling newspaper subscriptions. Newlyweds, he figured, were the best prospects, so he hired friends to copy the names and addresses of recent recipients of marriage licenses. These he entered into his computer, then sent a personalized letter offering each couple a free
two-week subscription. This time Dell made $ 18,000 and bought an expensive BMW car. The car salesman was flabbergasted
was the 17-year-old paid cash.
(1) What was Michael's father by profession ?
(2) How did Dell succeed in earning $ 2000 ?
(3) Who was flabbergasted ?Why>
(4) What do you think you can learn from Dell's story ?
(5) Rewrite the following sentences in the ways instructed:
(i) He bought his first personal computer.(Add a auestion tag)
(ii) If you think you have a god idea, try it. (Use 'Unless)
(iii) This time Dell made $ 18,000 and bought an expensive BMW car. (Rewrite it as simple sentence.)
(6) Find out the word from the extract which mean:
(i) Filled with a quality (ii) understand
(B) Grammar (Do as directed):
(i) My friend is..... able translator and.......impartial editor as well.(Rewrite it using appropriate article)
(ii) I was..........my regular walk through the forest ..........9 a.m. (Fill in the blanks with proper prepositions.)
(iii) I whispered to him hesitantly, "Could you stay here for a day?" Gandhiji said, "It is very difficult." (Change it into indirect speech.)
Q.2 (A) Read the following extract and answer the question given blow: (15M)
When I left India in 1975 to go the US for graduate studies, we had perhaps 600 million residents in the country and just two million land-line telephones. Having a telephone was a rare privilege; if you weren't an important government official, or a doctor, or a journalist, you might languish in a long waiting list and never receive a phone. Telephones were such a rarity (after all, 90% of the population had no access to a telephone line) that elected members of Parliament had amongst their privileges the right to allocate 15 telephone connections to whomever they deemed worthy. And if you did have a phone, it wasn't necessarily a blessing. I spent my high school years in Calcutta, and I remember that if you picked up your phone, you had no guarantee you would reach the number you had dialed. Sometimes you were connected to someone else's ongoing conversation, and they had no idea you were able to hear them; there was even a technical term for it, the 'cross-connection'
(appropriately, since these were connections that made us very cross. If you wanted to call another city, say Delhi, you had to book a 'trunk call' in the morning and then sit by the telephone all day waiting for it to come through; or you could pay eight times the going rate for a 'lighting call'- but even lighting struck slowly in India in those days, so it only took half an hour instead of the usual three or four or
more to be connected.
(1) What did the narrator leave India in 1975 for ?
(2) What special rights did elected members of parliament use to have ?
(3) How did the author differentiate between a 'trunk call' and a 'lighting call' ?
(4) Do you think the cell phone has made us global? How ?
(5) Rewrite the following sentences in the ways instructed:
(i) You could pay eight times the going rate for a 'lighting call'. (Rewrite it using model auxiliary showing compulsion.)
(ii) I spent my high school years in Calcutta. (Rewrite it using Past perfect Tense)
(iii) Telephones were a rarity. (Make it a rhetorical question.)
(6) Match the words in column A with their meanings in column B:
|Column 'A'
|Column 'B'
|(i) Privilege
|(a) means to reach or get
|(ii) Access
|(b) remedy
|(c) special right
Read the following extract carefully and make the notes with the help of the clues given below:
Naturally occurring platinum and platinum-rich alloys have been known for a long time. The Spaniards named the metal 'platina' or little silver, when they first encountered it in Colombia. The platinum group metals are rhodium, ruthenium, palladium, osmium, iridium and platinum. Of these, platinum is the most important. These metals are very similar in many ways and are extremely rare. On an average, there is only a gramme of ruthenium in each tone of rock and barely a gramme of rhodium in over a 1000 tonnes of rocks! Platinum's wear and tarnish resistance characteristics are well suited for making fine jewelry. Other distinctive properties include-resistance to chemical attack,
excellent high temperature characteristic and stable electrical properties. These metals are uniquely durable and can be used extremely efficiently- meaning that a very little goes a very long way. When recycled, over 96 percent can be recovered. The platinum group metals- or PGMS – plays an important role in our everyday life, for they are used in so many things from foundation pens to aircraft turbine. In facts, one in four of the goods manufactured today either contain one or the other of these metals. The catalytic converter – a pollution control device – is the largest application of platinum group metals.

We often hear this statement that' many of our young people more time before their TV sets, than they do in their classrooms or with their textbooks. : A bit exaggerated though it may sound, it is nearly true and our teenagers are being considerably influenced by the electronic media, particularly the TV the television has become the single most powerful influence in the lives of many of our youngsters today. Too often this happens to us much before we realize it ourselves. I am in no way trying to deny the many advantages of TV, or minimize its manifold contributions to our world. On the other hand, I consider, TV as one of the greatest scientific achievements of our times,
bringing people closer than ever before. Television's use of the modern satellite technology brings today even the remotest regions of the
world to us in seconds, making the world a small (global) village. As we know, television also provides us with a fuller and more impressive coverage of current events than any other media. The TV does serve, in addition, as a medium of education as well as entertainment. Besides helping us to learn subjects taught in school, college in greater depth, it enables us (National Geographic, Discovery channel etc.) to see and appreciate from close quarters (without having to go there, which is very expensive or even impossible for most of us) the wonders of God's creation in any part of the world.
(1) What does the passage tell us about?
(2) Write at least two advantages of TV from the passage.
(3) What other purpose does the TV serve in addition to education and entertainment ?
(4) Do you agree with the statement that many of our young people spend more time with their TV
set? Justify your answer.
(5) Rewrite the following sentence in the ways instructed:
(i) Our young people spend more time before their TV set than in their classrooms.
(Rewrite it using positive degree)
(ii) The TV does serve as a medium of education as well as an entertainment.
(Rewrite it using 'not only……but also')
(iii) I consider TV as one of the greatest scientific achievements of our times.
(Rewrite it using the noun from of the underlined world.)
(6) Find out the synonyms of the following words from the extract:
(i) refuse (ii) an activity designed to give pleasure
(B) Summary:
Write a brief summary of the above extract with the help of the given clues and suggest a suitable
title. Clues: TV – misunderstanding – influence on youngsters – advantages – other benefits.
SECTION– B (Poetry)
Q.4 (A) Read the following extract and answer the questions given below: (8M)
All drawn pass
leaving them in the dark.
They do not fear death,
they died long ago.
Old women once
were continents.
They had deep woods in them,
lakes, mountains, volcanoes ,
even raging gulfs.
When the earth was in heat
they melted, shrank,
leaving only their maps.
You can fold them
and keep them handy:
who knows, they might help you find
your way home.
(1) What do 'maps' symbolize?
(2) Do you feel that you should look after your grandparents? Why?
(3) "All dawns pass leaving them in dark." Identify The figure of speech.
(4) What examples of geographical imagery are mentioned in the poem?
(B) Read the following extract and answer the questions given below:
Is it the sword ? Ask the red dust
Of empires passed away;
The blood has turned their stones to rust,
Their glory to decay.
And is it pride? Ah, that bright crown
Has seemed to nations sweet;
But God has struck its luster down
In ashes at his feet.
(1) What is ultimate result of pride?
(2) Do you think war victories really turn 'glory to decay'? Why?
(3) Pick out the rhyming pairs of words in the second stanza.
(4) What message does the above extract convey?
SECTION – C (Rapid Reading and Composition)
Q.5 (A) Read the following extract carefully: (4M)
I was walking around the camp, around the barracks, near the barbed wire fence where the guards could not easily see. I was alone.
On the other side of the fence, I spotted someone: a little girl with light, almost luminous curls. She was half- hidden behind a birch tree. I glanced around to make sure no saw me. I called to her softly in German, "Do you have something to eat?" She didn't understand. I inched closer to the fence and repeated the question in Polish. She stepped forward. I was thin and gaunt, with rags wrapped around my feet, but the girl looked unafraid. In her eyes I saw life. She pulled an apple from her woolen jacket and threw it over fence. I grabbed the fruit and, as I started to run away, I heard her say faintly, "I'll see you tomorrow." I returned to the same spot by the fence at the same time every day. She was always there with something for me to eat – a hunk of bread or better yet, an apple. We didn't dare speak or linger. To be caught would mean death for us, both. I didn't know anything about her. Just a kind farm girl, except that she understand Polish.
What was her name? Why was she risking her life for me?
Imagine that you are the author brother Sam and rewrite it.
You may begin with:"Hello, I am Sam. My brother was walking around the camp…."
(B) Read the following extract carefully: (4M)
George : (contemptuously) I wasn't afraid of the bulldog.
Tom : No, may be you weren't; but I'm not sure that the savage beast hasn't torn
off a bit of young Alfie's suit, and if he has there won't half be a row!
(Alfie fidgets nervously at the mention of his damaged suit)
Tom : (down R.C.) How much money have we collected?
Ginger : (crossing C. to George) let's have a look under the light.
(after counting coppers, with the aid of George's torch) Eight pence half penny.
Tom : (in a tone of disgust) only eight pence half penny – between four of us – after yelling
our heads off all the evening! Crikey! Money's a bit tight round these parts, isn't it?
George : I told you it was too early for carol-singing. It's too soon after Guy Fawke's day.
(Faint distant scream off R.)
Tom : (startled) What was that?
George : What was what?
Tom : That noise – it sounded like a scream.
George : Nonsense.
Alfie : (L) Let's go home.
George : You chaps do get scared easily. It wouldn't do for you to be in the club that Bert
Williams and I are running. We go out looking for adventures like this.
Ginger : Club? I thought it was a gang.
George : Gangs are getting too common. We have tuned ours into a club – "The Do and Dare Club" we call it and no one in it must ever show a sign of fear.
Tom : I shouldn't think you'd have many members. Why, everybody's afraid of something – if
it's not one thing, it's bounded to be another.
George : (in a very superior tone) Ours isn't a club for kids; it's for daring young fellows keen on
Convert the extract into a short continuous write-up in about 120 words.
You may begin with:"George wasn't afraid of the bull-dog…."
(B) Read the following extract carefully:
How happy that daisy was! No one had the least idea. The bird kissed it with its beak, sang to it and then
rose again up to the blue sky. It was certainly more than a quarter of an hour before the daisy recovered
its sense. Half-ashamed, yet glad at heart, it looked over to the other flowers in the garden, surely that
had witnessed its pleasure and the honour that had been done to it; they understood its joy. But the
tulips stood more stiffly than ever, their faces were pointed and red, because they were vexed. The
peonies were sulky; it was well that they could not speak; otherwise they would have given the daisy a
good lecture. The little flower could very well see that they were ill at ease and pitied them sincerely.
Extend the extract by adding in imaginary paragraph of your own in about 120 words.

I mean, why wouldn't she? How else is Genghis Khan the Chow Chow supposed to ready himself for a trying day at the Westminster Dog Show? Come on.
And clearly, this fancy dog's fancy meal paid off, since he went on to win Best in Breed, though a Pekingese beat him out for the coveted Best in Show prize. Also, this isn't even as insane and extravagant as it looks — Genghis may have been sitting at a table in the Plaza hotel, but Stewart says he was only eating his own food, nothing off the restaurant's menu. "We don't serve him table food," she said, after telling Vanity Fair all about his elaborate daily diet:
"He eats either white or brown rice that's steamed with peas, carrots, string beans, and broccoli all chopped up in it. Boiled fish — I buy blue fish by the tens of pounds — and I boil the bluefish with the skin and bones until it's falling off the bones, then I take it all off the bones then I freeze it in the liquid, then it's sort of gelatinous."
Delicious, undoubtedly. Stewart went on to gush about Khan's "regal bearing," which befits his stately heritage:
"Remember, there were 2,500 pairs of these dogs chained to those stone pillars in the imperial courtyard in Beijing in front of the imperial palace. And each pair of dogs had its own servant dressed in blue silk, which fed it and cleaned up after it, and they were out in the courtyard all the time. Their job was to guard the palace, to guard the emperor."
Projecting much, Empress Martha? Well go right ahead, because this is quickly becoming my favorite news story of 2012. Fingers crossed that Genghis and Martha stay on the dog-show circuit for many weird, happy years to come.

Controversial winner of the prestigious French Prix Goncourt (1987), Tahar Ben Jelloun is a Moroccan writer who has not found much favor at home, despite his growing popularity abroad. According to some North African critics, Ben Jelloun intentionally sets out to please foreign readers. The critics contend that his writing reinforces European stereotypes by pandering to western tastes for quaint folklore and traditions, and exotic scenery. Moroccan critics have accused Ben Jelloun of creating artificial, fabricated stories that fail to convey a true picture of Morocco. They have also been offended by his criticism of Morocco, and the fact that he reveals sides of Moroccan life that are usually kept hidden. Ben Jelloun's story of a girl dressed as a boy, L'Enfant du Sable (The Sand Child) (1985), was scandalous in their eyes. After Ben Jelloun won the Prix Goncourt, a number of critics changed their minds and have begun to praise his work.

Lost Treasure Ships of the British Isles.
British Naval Power
As Britain has been a sea power for over 500 years and an important trading centre for even longer, tons of cargo has been transported around the British Isles. For all the ships that have attempted to trade, invade or visit the British isles, a few unlucky ships have been lost in the sometimes treacherous coastal waters.
Local legends tell of unimaginable treasures lying on the seabed waiting to be found by adventurous and intrepid treasure hunters. Throughout the British Isles there are stories of missing French gold intended for Scottish rebels, and thousands of Spanish coins in the hull of sunken ships of the Spanish Armada fleet.
Before Admiral Nelson's flagship was built, there was another ship christened the HMS Victory. This vessel had a different and more tragic history to its more famous successor. In 1744 Admiral Sir John Balchin, whose flag was flying on board the Victory, was returning from a voyage from Gibraltar.The vessel having reached the Channel on the 3rd of October, was overtaken by a quick and devastating storm. HMS Victory was a very steady and robust ship by the standards of the eighteenth century, and it was the largest ship in the world at the time of its construction at Portsmouth in 1737. HMS Victory represented a peak in ship construction for the British Royal Navy. On the 4th of October, the Victory was separated from the rest of the returning British fleet, and was never heard of again. The ship had on board close to 1,000 sailors, plus a complement of marines, and guests of high standing in British high society.
It is speculated that she struck upon a ridge of rocks off the Caskets and eventually sunk into the channel. This is pieced together from the testimony of the inhabitants of the island of Alderney, the weather was too dangerous to allow boats to go out to the assistance of the Victory. With the ship consigned to the depths of the sea so perished the finest ship of the British Navy. With the sinking of the Victory 100-110 bronze cannons and £400,000 in gold coins taken on in Lisbon were lost to the British treasury along with the personal effects and miscellaneous cargo of the ship.
British treasure wrecks
Sunken Treasure Ships
Possibly the greatest hoard of sunken treasure still waiting to be found on the seabed around Great Britain is that which went down in the Merchant Royal, off Dartmouth, on 23 September, 1641 AD. Returning to Britain with a definite King's ransom in Spanish treasure, her sinking in bad weather was a great loss to the British treasury. The sinking witnessed by another vessel in its company reported the location of its demise as 21 miles off the coast of Lands End.
The vessel was carrying thirty-six bronze cannon, in her cargo hold was £300,000 in silver, £100,000 in gold, and as much again in jewel.It is also estimated that wooden chests held perhaps more than half a million Spanish silver pesos, 500 heavy bars of gold and thick ingots of silver. In some reports the hold also held vast amounts of rubies, emeralds, diamonds and pearls. The loss of so much treasure was a shock to most of Europe, as they had personal effects and jewellery on the ship.
Wrecks are everywhere
If you were to check in any coastal town along the British coast there is so much folklore and legend with regard to lost bounty underneath the waves. Due to the difficulty in pinpointing wrecks from a century or two ago, it would be expensive to track down the treasure.
To fully investigate a shipwreck site and acquire the salvageable items is a legal minefield as some foreign governments still have claim on the lost ships. The North Sea and English channel are violent seas and have been the undoing of many, the wrecks on the ocean floor is ample proof of that.

Interesting Hub on sunken ships and lost treasure. I wonder how much of it still survives and is salvageable today?
Sunken treasure is one of those magical images that we grow up hearing about. There's a mystical quality to it. Sadly, there aren't any sunken ship here in Brooklyn, NY.
Fascinating stuff...As a scuba enthusiast, I have dove on wrecks in the Sea of Cortez and off the California coast...Found lots of fish in these man-made reefs but nary a peso or pound...
Thank you for this brief and interesting history of a couple of ships that have gone down to the sea and rest now in Davy Jones locker, without the key...Larry

Online Extra: Signs, vigil mark anniversary of Paterno's death
By GENARO C. ARMAS
Associated Press
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Flowers and mementos left by supporters adorned Joe Paterno's gravesite Tuesday, a year after the longtime Penn State coach's death, while at the spot where a bronze statue of him used to stand, a makeshift sign of cardboard flapped in a cold wind.
"Joseph Paterno. Always remembered. Always a legend," read the sign outside Beaver Stadium and attached to a tree with white wire.
The Hall of Fame coach died of lung cancer Jan. 22, 2012, at age 85. Besides the bouquets and signs, supporters also planned to mark the anniversary of his death with a candlelight vigil at a downtown State College mural that includes a depiction of Paterno.
He died more than two months after being fired in the frantic days following the arrest of former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky on child molestation charges in November 2011. His legacy remains a sensitive topic for groups of alumni, former players and local residents.
A family spokesman has said the Paternos would not take part in public gatherings Tuesday.
A year ago, the campus was flooded with mourners. Commemorations were much smaller on a frigid Tuesday with temperatures in the teens.
Supporters like Dan Hamm, a freshman from Williamsport, have said Paterno's 46-year career as a whole should be taken into consideration, including the longtime coach's focus on academics.
"We wanted to pay our respects. We wanted to celebrate who he was as a person," Hamm said after visiting Paterno's grave at a State College cemetery on a blustery afternoon.
Then, nodding his head in the direction of Paterno's adorned gravesite, Hamm said, "You can see here that Joe Paterno was Penn State, and Penn State will always be Joe Paterno."
Former FBI director Louis Freeh released findings July 12 in the school's internal investigation of the scandal. Paterno's reputation was tarnished after Freeh accused the coach and three former school administrators of covering up allegations against Sandusky.
The retired defensive coordinator has been sentenced to at least 30 years in prison after being convicted of 45 criminal counts. Prosecutors said allegations occurred off and on campus, including the football facility.
On July 22, Penn State removed Paterno's statue, which had been a gathering point for mourners last January. The next day, the NCAA reacted with uncharacteristic swiftness in levying strict sanctions including a four-year bowl ban, strict scholarship cuts and a $60 million fine.
Paterno was also stripped of 111 victories, meaning he no longer held the major college record of 409 career wins.
Paterno's family and the three administrators have vehemently denied Freeh's allegations, along with denying suspicions they took part in a cover-up. Also, Paterno's family has been planning what a spokesman has called a comprehensive response to Freeh's findings.
But on Tuesday, the family was expected to remain in privacy. A delivery man dropped off flowers at the Paternos' modest ranch home in the afternoon, walking past a sign staked to the snow-covered lawn.
The sign read in part, "Thank you Joe! Thank you Sue!", referring to Paterno's widow. "RIP JoePa … 409 forever." Another sign posted near Paterno's grave read "Joe Paterno. Penn State's Spirit in the Sky."
Hamm's friend, fellow freshman Nick Bucci, said he felt his school handled the scandal well overall, given the extent of the fallout, with some exceptions.
At some point, Bucci said, the school should honor Paterno. He referred to one suggestion that dated back years before Paterno's death, of naming the field at the stadium after the coach.
But Bucci advocated for perspective.
"A day like today, those emotions might be high," said Bucci, of Dayton, Md. "I don't think now is the time to do it. I think you have to wait."

text: Caterpillar Inc. has acquired Sabre Engines Ltd., a family-owned company in the U.K. specializing in high-performance marine diesel engines. "Caterpillar is proud to announce this acquisition and welcomes Sabre into the Caterpillar family," said Douglas R. Oberhelman, Caterpillar vice-president with responsibility for the company's Engine Products Division. "Sabre is a well-managed company with dedicated people, state-of-the-art design and technology, and a solid customer base. And they have significant growth potential - in markets, technology and products." Sabre has had an established Cooperation Agreement with Perkins Engines Company Ltd. since 1991, whereby Perkins sells core engines to Sabre for marinization. Oberhelman noted the Sabre/Perkins relationship has worked extremely well for both companies and it is from this relationship Caterpillar is confident even further benefits can be achieved. Caterpillar already offers 27 different engine models and sells more marine diesel engines over 250 bhp (185 bkW) than any other manufacturer in the world. The addition of Sabre Engines Ltd. will complement Caterpillar's global offering of marine power systems below 300 bhp (224 bkW). "The benefit to our customers and the marine industry is boat builders will be able to one-stop-shop a wider horsepower range for Caterpillar marine power systems," said Oberhelman. Paul Freeman, commercial director of Sabre Engines said, "Sabre has proven expertise in designing world class, marine propulsion and marine genset engines from core bases. As a part of Caterpillar, Sabre gains access to the financial, technical, marketing and logistical strengths and resources it needs to continue growing and improving. This will not only be good for the customers we serve, but for our employees as well."

The Dixie Ticklers
This six piece ensemble has put today's date on early jazz, placing it alongside groove-based shuffles and fresh modern treatments whilst constantly staying true to the polyphonic approach that shaped the music of the initial pioneers such as Louis Armstrong, King Oliver and Jelly Roll Morton.
The band manages to bring in a deep scholarly understanding of New Orleans and Dixieland jazz without letting it undermine their enthusiasm for performing, and they manage to bring a contemporary London edge to the music while being true to its origins.

Prince Harry's new girlfriend, actress Meghan Markle, is not expected to be invited to the royal family's private Christmas celebration this year, but she shouldn't take it personally.
Contrary to a recent report claiming that the queen denied a request from Harry to have Meghan join the family at their Sandringham House country estate, royal expert Katie Nicholl has a different account.
WATCH: Prince Harry's Girlfriend Meghan Markle Met Prince William and Kate Middleton During London Visit
"My sources tell me that is not the case," Nicholl tells ET from London. "[Harry] knows the rules of the royal family and he knows that until they get engaged, Meghan will not have a place around that Christmas dinner table."
Nicholl noted that the same was true for Kate, Duchess of Cambridge.
"If you think about all those years that Prince William was courting Kate Middleton, she had to wait 10 years until she was invited to Sandringham," Nicholl says. "Harry and Meghan have only been dating for a few months. So, no, the queen has not stolen Christmas, and, no, Meghan Markle won't be at the Christmas table at Sandringham this year."

And just what does a Christmas with the royal family look like?
"The royal family really wind down for Christmas," Nicholl explains. "The senior members traditionally spend the festive period at Sandringham. Sandringham is the queen's residence in Northfolk, and it has always been the place where the family gathered. So the queen, the Duke of Edinburgh, the Prince of Wales, Camilla, the whole family gather en masse. They enjoy a traditional Christmas turkey on Christmas Eve. They follow the German tradition and open presents on Christmas Eve and then on Christmas Day itself, the family goes to church in the morning and then they go back to Sandringham House for lunch and to watch, of course, the queen's speech in the afternoon. And then really the family are left to enjoy themselves — to play games, and on Boxing Day, there is that famous shoot that most of the senior members of the family take part in."
Harry and Markle haven't been in the same room together since Harry launched his 14-day tour of the Caribbean, but Markle was snapped departing from Los Angeles International Airport on Tuesday. While it's unclear where Markle might meet up with Harry next, Nicholl is confident that they will squeeze in some time together before Christmas.
PIC: Rihanna and Prince Harry Take HIV Tests Together on World AIDS Day
"My sources do tell me that they have plans to meet up as soon as Prince Harry has finished his tour, which will be this weekend," Nicholl says. "It's possible they might meet in London. There's a chance they might meet in L.A. That said, Prince Harry does have an engagement in London next week, so if I was putting money on it, I'd say if they're going to be meeting up, it's more likely to be over here than in the States."
Gearing up for the tail end of his Caribbean tour on Thursday, Prince Harry was joined by Rihanna in Barbados to take an HIV test in honour of World AIDS Day. Watch the video below to learn more about Harry's tropical trip.

This is a design i came up with for a british airways world on sale campaign, i wanted to use mainly typography, but didn't know if this type worked too well.
British Airways Poster
Primary tabs
A few quick comments:
1) That uppercase bold sans speaks pretty dam loud, but then it takes a long time to read. Maybe consider a mixed-case setting?
2) The color scheme says France to me, not Italy. I'd change the blue to green. If you need the blue for CI reasons, I wouldn't use it on the word "Italy".
3) The colosseum in the corner, while I like its graphical treatment, looks a bit like an excuse to squoosh in an image after all. You might try making it more prominent and exploring ways the type can interact with the image.
4) On the detail level, there's some kerning to work out ("AIRW A YS").
It might work during the holidays...but red and green? Are you trying to offend the color-blind? :-) I'm not a fan of the color scheme. Try something a little less primary and a bit more sophisticated. And all-caps does suggest yelling, something that seems a bit off-message with the supposedly awesome and polite service British Airways offers.
Maybe choose a bit more of an airy color scheme? Something that suggests air-travel and freedom. Light blues. Maybe some dark blues, suggesting ocean. And if you pair it with a nice, clean sans-serif - upper and lower case as you want people to read it and not feel they were yelled at - you may be able to convince people that these flights are economical which may be a key selling point in these economic times. Maybe also throw in a flat, silhouette illustration of something unique and easily recognizable to the destination being served - but be careful that the illustration item is not too cliché (I'm specifically thinking of kangaroos).
I think before thinking about gradients and color, you should sort out your typography. I still agree with bemerx that "you want people to read it and not feel they were yelled at", which was also what I was trying to get at in my first reply to this.
That said, your most recent mixed-case variation yells less, but looks a bit like you haven't spent a lot of time playing with different typefaces, font sizes, arrangements, with the leading and the line lengths, and the placement of the illustration (which might also benefit from a more refined treatment).
You've got so many variables at your disposal – already in the "purely graphical" realm, i.e. before you reach color. Play with them! :-)
Read the sentence out loud. Pause where it makes sense to pause.
Do the line-breaks make sense to you?
Also, ask yourself where this should be on the classy vs. cheap axis. I know it's an ad for cheap flights, but it's still BA, not EasyJet… Defining this should help in the font selection process (and a lot of other decisions actually).
Well the last image is the best yet but Nina's suggestions are spot-on. Think about what you're communicating and think of the "tone" and "feeling" that you want to communicate. Play with your typefaces and find a family (or two) that help capture that. Then use 1 or 2 fonts from those families in such a way that you capture that feeling while balancing it with the layout.
Design is about problem solving with multiple variables all which need to be balanced successfully. It's challenging yet very fulfilling. Advertising is design but with a focus on wish fulfilling. What's the wish? How will BA fulfill it? And I think it's less about "cheap flights" and more about "good value and excellent service".
You might want to check out ads in say, National Geographic or in some traveling magazine, and see how other designers solve similar problems. Look at the type that they use and see if it helps invoke feelings appropriate to the message.
And finally, don't get frustrated. Stop and take a break by doing something completely unrelated to this project (or even design in general). Then come back to it later.
A propos of line breaks, I'd make huge discounts a separate line. That's the value proposition, so you want it to scan as a single coherent idea.
With our
huge discounts,
there has
never been a better time
to explore Italy
with British Airways.
That's not very comfortable at all. I would have to disagree, I think making "huge discounts" a separate line, it reads very choppy. Takes too much effort. You want someone to be able to read it quickly and with ease. I think the previous version does that more effectively. But it feels crammed - there isn't enough space around it. You want it the sentence to be comfortable in there. You wouldn't have to make too much room, it's just way too close to the edge as is.
Will this one be for the British Airways only?
I think its getting pretty solid now. But the t and h look strange in the first "with." Have you done any kerning?
Is your copy set in stone? Maybe it's a British thing, but the wording reads very awkwardly to me.
- Lex
As it stands:
1. Move the second "with" back down to the bottom line.
2. You don't need a comma at the end of a line.
Maybe call more attention to "EXPLORE AMERICA" or "EXPLORE ITALY" and have some of the wording above and below. It would read better "there has never been a better time to EXPLORE AMERICA with huge discounts from British Airways" or "With huge discounts from British Airways, there has never been a better time to EXPLORE AMERICA".
I like your previous left justified approach, unless this is going on a wine bottle.
Not sure the reflection is necessary unless the client ask you to "make it shiny" which is not an unheard of request. This design looks more minimal and clean, so you might stray from the shiny look.
Now that I look at it again, I'm not sure the "British Airways" is needed in the above text when you have the BA logo at the bottom.
My one and only comment is that nothing in that poster would look good italicized, as evidenced by one of the mockups you provided earlier.
Also, utilizing color schemes that are representative of the target Country's flag would be a nice touch.
I'd fix the spelling mistake in "Austrlia" before I handed this exercise in. Also, is it getting a wee bit plain?
Ok, I didn't comment after my last one cause I was getting confused..but this is what I ment ^^
I really liked the first one you posted for Italy, it would need some work, but I was thinking that each place would have a different poster...But if you are sticking with the same design for different places...a) it is getting quite plain. b) i would actually try something a little different for each..
I mean, Italy is a lot different then New York, you could give each poster a certain feel about it.
I sound confusing don't I?
Ok. I would probably use the first idea for Italy..using the Italian colors...which even the color blind people would understand, becuase it is the color of their flag. And for somewhere like America, I would use ... http://typophile.com/files/heroes_3505.jpg
Sorry if this makes little or no sense ... hahaha I feel like I am confusing myself now... but hopefully I said everything right.
I like where you started with the very first poster. While it's not perfect, it has more interest than the watered down versions.
While the all caps does look like yelling, perhaps de-emphasizing some of the less important words would make it more readable.
with our
there has never been a
better TIME TO
with BRITISH AIRWAYS
...or something like that. Needs work, but the idea is get the consumer to see a more direct message right away.
Also, I like the graphic of the colusseum and the opera house. It has a nice negative/positive space feel to it - it just needs to be worked into the design better.
hope that helps.
I think your typography has improved in the most recent post.
All the copy doesn't need to be, and probably shouldn't be, the same size.
You really need to make the colors you choose match the country on the poster (Italy-green/red, America-red/blue, etc.).
I think the Colosseum and the Sydney Opera house silhouettes looked good, they just needed to be incorporated better with the type and color schemes.
Try making "Explore Italy" the biggest type, add the Colosseum illo back in, put the supporting type in 1/2 or 1/3 the size of your "headline" and incorporate the green/white/red color scheme.

Perceptively observed characters from American small-town life populate the book in hilarious cameos and get in the way of Flip's well-meaning attempts to reform himself.

Review by Maydacat
If Murphy's Law could, by magic, be transformed into a human being, that person would be Flip Mellis. After years of a happy life with his family and a successful career, Flip loses his job and slowly but surely, his world crumbles around him. The more he tries, the less he can do, no matter what it is. A new job? Not happening. Helping out around the house? Too busy eating himself out of fitting into his clothes. Painting the home office? A Rube Goldberg disaster. But wait! Flip has a plan to free himself from all his troubles. You can probably guess how that is going to work out! Even while you are feeling sorry for Flip, you are wondering how manages to get himself in such a fix. You'll want to yell at him to just stop and think, but all the while you can't help laughing at him. Poor Flip! This highly entertaining satire is sure to delight you as Flip painfully navigates through life.

This article needs additional citations for "verification. (October 2017) ("Learn how and when to remove this template message)
The examples and perspective in this article deal primarily with "the English-speaking world and do not represent a "worldwide view of the subject. (March 2012) ("Learn how and when to remove this template message)
In "sports broadcasting, a sports commentator (also known as sports announcer, sportscaster or play-by-play announcer) gives a running commentary of a game or event in "real time, usually during a "live broadcast, traditionally delivered in the "historical present tense. The comments are normally a "voiceover, with the sounds of the action and spectators also heard in the background. In the case of "television commentary, the commentators are on screen rarely if at all during the event (although they may appear on camera at the start or near the end of the broadcast).
This section does not "cite any "sources. (October 2017) ("Learn how and when to remove this template message)
The main commentator, also called the play-by-play announcer or commentator in North America, or lap-by-lap commentator in the case of motorsports coverage, is the primary speaker on the broadcast. They are valued for their articulateness and for their ability to describe each play or event of an often fast-moving sporting event. Because of their skills, some commentators like "Al Michaels in the U.S., "David Coleman in the UK and "Bruce McAvaney in Australia may have careers in which they call several different sports at one time or another. Other main commentators may, however, only call one sport.
The analyst or color commentator provides expert analysis and background information, such as statistics, strategy on the teams and athletes, and occasionally anecdotes or light humor. They are usually former athletes or coaches in their respective sports, although there are some exceptions.
The term "color" refers to levity and insight provided by analyst. The most common format for a sports broadcast is to have an analyst/color commentator work alongside the main/play-by-play announcer.[1][2][3] An example is "NBC Sunday Night Football in the United States, which is called by color commentator "Cris Collinsworth, a former "American football receiver, and play-by-play commentator "Al Michaels, a professional announcer. In the United Kingdom, however, there is a much less distinct division between play-by-play and color commentary, although two-man commentary teams usually feature an enthusiast with formal journalistic training but little or no competitive experience leading the commentary, and an expert former (or current) competitor following up with analysis or summary. There are however exceptions to this — most of the United Kingdom's leading "cricket and "snooker commentators are former professionals in their sports, while the former "Formula One racing commentator "Murray Walker had no formal journalistic training and only limited racing experience of his own.
Although the combination of a play-by-play announcer and a color commentator is standard as of 2014[update], in the past it was much more common for a broadcast to have no analysts and just have a single play-by-play announcer to work alone. "Vin Scully, longtime announcer for the "Brooklyn/"Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team, was one of the few examples of this practice lasting into the 21st century until he retired in 2016.
A sideline reporter assists a sports broadcasting crew with "sideline coverage of the "playing field or court. The sideline reporter typically makes live updates on "injuries and breaking news or conducts player interviews while players are on the field or court because the play-by-play broadcaster and color commentator must remain in their broadcast booth. Sideline reporters are often granted inside information about an important update, such as injury, because they have the credentials necessary to do so. In cases of big events, teams consisting of many sideline reporters are placed strategically so that the main commentator has many sources to turn to (for example some sideline reporters could be stationed in the dressing room area while others could be between the respective team benches).
In British sports broadcasting, the presenter of a sports broadcast is usually distinct from the commentator, and often based in a "remote broadcast "television studio away from the sports venue. In North America, the on-air personality based in the studio is called the studio host. During their shows, the presenter/studio host may be joined by additional analysts or pundits, especially when showing highlights of various other matches.
In "North American English, sportscaster is a general term for any type of commentator in a sports broadcast. It may also refer to a "sports talk show host or a "newscaster covering sports news.
While sports broadcasts took place from 1912, Florent Gibson of the Pittsburgh Star newspaper broadcast the first sports commentary in April 1921, covering the fight between Johnny Ray and Johnny "Hutch" Dundee at the "Motor Square Garden, "Pittsburgh.[4]
In 1975, the National Hockey League made headlines when two coaches from the N.H.L. All-Star Game in Montreal allowed "Robin Herman and Marcel St. Cyr. access into the men's locker room. Both were believed to have been the first women ever allowed to enter a professional men's locker room to conduct a post-game interview.[5] Sport organizations began to follow in the N.H.L.'s footsteps and allowed for other female sportswriters to be given the same access as men sportswriters.[6]
It was not until the year 1977 when "Melissa Ludtke, a sportswriter from "Sports Illustrated, was given the assignment to cover the Yankees playoff series but was denied entry into the men's locker room. Baseball commissioner "Bowie Kuhn and other officials chose to discriminate against her based on her sex. Knowing that this would put Sports Illustrated in a disadvantage from other publishers, "Time Inc. and Ludtke filed a lawsuit against Kuhn.[6]
The lawsuit was taken to the U.S. District Court in 1978 where Judge "Constance Baker Motley ruled the act as violating the 14th amendment of the U.S. Constitution. The court ruled that the Yankees organization devise a plan to protect the players of their privacy while female sportswriters conducted interviews, suggesting the use of towels.[7]
After the access of allowing women in was put into effect, the Yankees organization allowed reporters to spend 10 minutes interviewing players and was then asked to leave and wait. Male reporters were unhappy with this and blamed the women from keeping them out and not being able to do their job. For some men they finally understood what women reporters had been dealing with.[7]
In 1990, the issue made its way back into the headlines when "Lisa Olson made a public statement revealing that players from the New England Patriots had exposed themselves while interviews were being conducted. This prompted other female reporters who had been harassed to come forward. Accusations were made that women appeared as being "too friendly" while performing interviews or conversing too long with players as though they were flirting. Their credibility became undermined. Thus, the issue of sexism was still present, despite the equal access to men's locker rooms.[6]
This section does not "cite any "sources. (October 2017) ("Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Though not always the case, in "professional wrestling, the color commentator is usually a ""heel sympathizer" (or a supporter of the "bad guys") as opposed to the play-by-play announcer, who is more or less the "voice of the fans" as well as supporters of the "good guys" (or "babyfaces). Though both are supposed to show neutral stance while announcing, the color commentators (especially when they support heels) are usually more blatant about their stance than the play-by-play announcers. "Jesse "The Body" Ventura and "Bobby "The Brain" Heenan pioneered the "heel sympathizer" for color commentary in wrestling. "Jerry "The King" Lawler later made a successful transition into the role, though Lawler has since shown more sympathy for faces (partially due to being "over with fans after nearly forty years in wrestling). In some cases, commentators are also active "managers for wrestlers, usually following continuity as heels. Former "Extreme Championship Wrestling color commentator "Cyrus was known for having dual roles as a heel manager and a somewhat neutral commentator. It has also been used to keep injured wrestlers in the public eye while they recuperate. Special guest color commentators serve a twofold purpose, the primary is usually to place them in position to "interfere with the match they are calling, but also serves to tell the promotors if this performer can "talk" on his own in the ad lib driven commentary role.

One of the best safety prospects on the junior college level is Compton (Calif.) College three-star standout Ashlee Palmer (6-3, 215, 4.45). He has offers from everyone in the Pac 10 except UCLA and Stanford. Palmer had an in-house visit with Arizona and he's set up three visits.
"Coach Mike Tuiasosopo and Coach Mark Stoops were in my house on Sunday," Palmer said. "I really like Coach Tui, he recruited me out of Lynwood high school when he was at Utah."
"Coach Tui and Coach Stoops are real intense guys," Palmer said. "They told me that they're losing their top two safeties so I know if I go to Arizona, I'm going to contribute right away."
Article Continues Below
"I have already visited Ole Miss and I liked it a lot," Palmer said. "It is definitely different from California and I can see myself playing there."
"When Coach Tui and Coach Stoops were here, I set up a visit to Arizona(Dec. 9th)," Palmer said. "I'm also going to visit Washington this weekend (Dec. 2nd) and I'm going to set a visit to Nebraska."
"I don't have a leader at this time," Palmer said. "Arizona, Washington, Ole Miss and Nebraska are all even."
Whoever lands the talented Palmer will be getting a player with great vision and a knack for getting to the football.
Palmer set the Compton College single season record for interceptions with seven. His performance saw him be selected Conference Defensive Player of the Year for 2005.
Palmer signed with San Jose State out of high school, but didn't qualify. He will be a three to play three guy. He red shirted his true freshman season because he tore his meniscus and his MCL his freshman season forcing him to sit out.
Obviously, Palmer is all healed up and completely healthy.

By S. Osborn:
If you feel overwhelmed and suicidal, consider how taking your life would hurt people who love you. Instead, communicate with them.
Because my son was suicidal at one point when he was in high school, my heart goes out to other mothers who have experienced a suicidal teen. Fortunately my story has a happy ending, so I hope those who experience suicidal thoughts will read this story, see the effect that act would have on those left behind, and will reconsider.
I watched my eldest son race down the stairs, shoving his younger brother out of the way. He had a wild look in his eyes that scared me. I had never seen him behave like that before. As he brushed past me on the way to the front door, I saw a buck knife in his hand. By the time I reached the door, he had jumped in my car and was driving away.
My other son and I stared at each other for a moment, then he turned and walked slowly back up the stairs. Moments later, he cried, "Mom, you'd better come look at this."
I ran up the stairs and grabbed the paper he held out to me. It read, "I can't go on any longer. Please forgive me."
Sinking down on my eldest son's bed, I began to cry, with my other boy's arms around me.
"I had no idea he was depressed. Did you?"
"No, Mom. I know his girlfriend broke up with him, but that's happened before."
I added, "And you made the varsity water polo team, and he didn't. That had to be hard for him." He was the only one on varsity. His older brother was still playing on junior varsity.
We joined hands and prayed, "Lord, please bring him safely home to us." Throughout the next few hours, I prayed that prayer over and over. I felt so stressed I couldn't get beyond that one sentence.
My husband was on a business trip, so I called the hotel where he said he was staying. The clerk said no one was registered by that name. We were struggling in our marriage, so I wasn't surprised my husband wasn't where he said he would be. The tension in our home had been hard on the boys, too. I realized that, but didn't know what to do about it.
I sat at my dining room table, praying and staring off into space. Finally, about four in the morning, the front door opened, and in walked my firstborn, head down, knife at his side.
He put the knife on the table and said, "I couldn't do it, Mom. I couldn't take my own life. God wouldn't let me."
I stood up and wrapped my arms around him. I silently prayed, Thank you, Lord.
My husband and I divorced shortly thereafter. I never did figure out where he was that terrible night, but somehow my son had found out his father was cheating on me. So for over a year he carried around that burden, as well as the problems he had at school.
We talked for several hours that scary morning, and it helped us both to realize how important communication is in a family. After that, when my son was struggling with an issue, he would come to me and we would talk. Today, 28 years later, we still share that closeness.
My prayer is that if you are struggling with issues and feeling suicidal that you will find someone to talk to, perhaps a family member, a friend, a teacher, or a pastor. Or you can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), a free, 24-hour hotline available to anyone in suicidal crisis or emotional distress. Your call will be routed to the nearest crisis center to you.
You can also dial the following National Suicide Prevention Hotline numbers operated by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration of the Department of Health and Human Services:
1-877-SUICIDA (1-877-784-2432) (Spanish).

During a rally at Florida on Saturday, the current American first lady, Melania Trump opened the occasion with our Lord's Prayer and the internet went berserk with criticisms and hurtful comments.
The first time a thing like this happened was during the campaign days when she plagiarized some parts of the former first lady's speech.
However, the arguments and criticisms have largely been found to be baseless and unwarranted.
First, some Christian critics mocked the fact that she read the traditional Christian prayer from a paper. They argued that it was hypocritical since this is a prayer every Christian should know like the palm of their hands.
This criticism was debunked and countered by most American media platforms with more Americans rising to her defense.
Fox news presenters also noted that as much as Obama was a terrific orator, he still read his speeches from a paper; church ministers as well still read out well known prayers from a book.

She was in turn commended by the Christian folk for living true to her faith. Bearing in mind that she is a Slovenian immigrant, reading the English prayer off a piece of paper is not a big deal.
A second group accused her of violating the US church-state separation law. The law is supposed to ensure no church influence on governance.
Countering that too, it has been on record that past American presidents have publicly expressed their faith and did much more than reading Our Lord's Prayer off a sheet of paper.
According to Haaretz reports,
"U.S. presidents have often and openly offered Christian prayers while in office"
Obama was reported to have prayed everyday at the White House and also offered prayers in public. He also "quoted scripture and offered a prayer every year in office at the National Prayer Breakfast."
See Also: Buhari Sacks Aide For Plagiarizing Obama's Speech
Going further on, the report recalled that George Bush ran for office as a born again Christian. He also expressed his faith and devotion publicly.
"Bush framed much of his foreign policy in religious terminology,"
"Bush repeatedly used religious language in his speeches, offered prayers in public and declared national prayer days as a way to honor the 9/11 terror attacks."
Many consider it a shame that a country founded by Christians would not want an influence from the church; more so have a problem with the First lady for saying Our Lord's Prayer in public.
In her speech during the rally, Melania Trump promised to work for the good of all Americans and most importantly be true to herself regardless of her critic's opinion.
"I will act in the best interest of all of you. I am committed to creating and supporting initiatives dear to my heart, which will have an impact on women and children all around the world,"
"I will always stay true to myself and be truthful to you no matter what the opposition is saying about me."
