J&K: Status
of "Northern Areas"
A Shigri
Northern Areas
comprises of five districts namely Gilgit, Ghizer, Diamer,
Skardu and Ghanche. These were independent valleys ruled by the
local Rajas or Mirs.
During the nineteenth century, these areas were subjugated by the
Dogra rulers of Kashmir and were integrated in the State of Jammu
and Kashmir......
....The people of this area, however, have
continued to be treated unjustly.
Successive governments tried to address these issues but the
ministers of Kashmir Affairs and Foreign Affairs have insisted on
maintaining status quo. Their view is based on the fallacious
argument that the area is disputed, therefore, nothing can be done
to change their status as it is likely to adversely affect
Pakistan's stance on Kashmir issue. Since for the government in
Pakistan this issue was never a priority, therefore, no one looked
into the fundamental constitutional issues in its correct
perspective. No one is prepared to even take note of the apparent
conflicting arrangement for AJK, which in the context of Kashmir
dispute has the same status as the Northern Areas.
The real reasons are the petty, selfish and short-term gains that
accrue to the bureaucracy in Islamabad and the incompetence of the
Foreign Office that has failed to examine this vital issue in its
correct perceptive.
I am witness to this drama when the officers of Foreign Office tried
to dissuade the then President General Zia-ul-Haq from allowing the
representatives from the NA to sit in the assembly as observers. He
however over ruled them and issued instructions to allow a
representative from NA to sit as observes in the assembly. This
however did not last long.
The demand for fundamental rights by the people was either
suppressed or brushed aside as an irritant that did not call for any
attention. Some residents of Northern Areas and al Jihad Trust,
therefore, filed two constitutional petitions in the Supreme Court
seeking relief in the year 1994. A five-member bench of the Supreme
Court gave its landmark judgement in the case in CP 17/1994 on May
28. 1999. The relief sought by the petitioners was as follows.
"It is, therefore respectfully prayed that the Fundamental Rights
under the constitution of Pakistan Article 184(3) be enforced
keeping view the declaration of Human Rights, the constitutional
status of the people of Northern Areas be declared and being citizen
of Pakistan be given full participation in the Federation of
Pakistan. The litigant public is given the right to appeal, review
revision before the Supreme Court of Pakistan. The Provincial
Government status be given."
The petition was filed because the people of Northern Areas
considered themselves Pakistanis. Their only link to the State of
Jammu and Kashmir is the forceful subjugation of the area by the
Dogra ruler of Kashmir.
After liberation of the area and decision to join Pakistan of its
own free will, this link was severed forever. The government of
Pakistan contested the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court and also
opposed the grant of any rights to the people of this area. The
stand taken by the Federation makes interesting reading and also
brings out a typical bureaucratic point of view on this sensitive
issue. These bureaucrats barring a few honourable exceptions have no
vision and are not prepared to find any alternate solutions for a
"— The Pakistan exercise de jure administration in the Northern
Areas. Assuming though not conceding, this to be untenable, and then
the doctrine of de-facto administration applies here.
That Since Pakistan is sovereign in the Northern Area and expends
huge amounts for the betterment of the people and on lubricating
vast administrative machinery (judiciary and executive), it also has
the inalienable right to regulate such laws which may be deemed
appropriate to earn revenues.
That there is no Constitutional or Legal obligation to extend the
Northern Areas representation in Majlis-e-Shoora.
The institution of Northern Areas act as a de facto executive, a de
facto judiciary and a de facto legislature. Therefore, their acts
are valid.
The stance of the Federation reflects of total disdain for the
aspirations of the people of the area to be treated as equal
citizens of Pakistan that they had joined after throwing off the
Maharaja's yoke. This was an unfortunate and extremely irresponsible
stand before the highest judicial forum in the country. The Supreme
Court after detailed examination of all aspects of the case and
after hearing the Federation decided that it had the jurisdiction to
hear the case and issue directions to the Federation. The honourable
court did not accept the grant of the status of Pakistani
citizenship to the people of NA, but in view of the Constitutional
provisions and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to which
Pakistan is a signatory held that people of the NA be given the
right of self rule and an independent judiciary that should enforce
fundamental rights guaranteed in the Constitution. The Supreme Court
also held that the existing administrative arrangement did not meet
the minimum benchmark of being governed by a representative
executive and an independent judiciary.
The Supreme Court, therefore, directed the Federation to take
appropriate steps to:
"Ensure that the people of Northern Areas enjoy their above
fundamental rights, namely, to be governed through their chosen
representatives and to have access to justice through an independent
judiciary inter alia for enforcement of their Fundamental Rights
guaranteed under the Constitution."
Six months were given to execute these directives but these are yet
to be implemented. However to appear to be doing something in
pursuance of this historical decision the Federal Government made
some peripheral amendments in Northern Areas Council. Legal Frame
Work Order, 1994 and issued a Northern Areas Court of Appeals
(Establishment) Order, 1999. These amendments and orders fall far
short of the clear and specific direction of the honourable Supreme
Court. There is an elected council and a leader of the house but the
Chief Executive is the Minister for Kashmir Affairs and Northern
Areas. He neither belongs to the Northern Areas nor have the people
of this area elected him.
The people of the NA, therefore, after the fateful day of 1st
November, 1947 when they joined Pakistan continue to be deprived of
their fundamental rights and even the judicial verdict has failed to
move the government and the ministry continue to side step the issue
and their stranglehold continues on the area.
Every one including all the government servants even for petty cases
have to pay homage to the all-powerful ministry for routine
decisions. While the NRB harps on devolution of authority to local
government, it has no time for the NA and has not even considered
this issue in the light of the judgement of the Supreme Court. I
will not be surprised if NRB is not even aware of this decision.
This antipathy has resulted in disillusionment and frustration and a
small segment of population has started demanding for drastic
changes in the existing arrangement. Overwhelming majority of the
people of this area continue to be fiercely patriotic Pakistanis but
continued denial of their rights can result in demand that may not
be in their interest as well as of the country.

Poll on Using Typography in Home Decorating?
Are You a Wordy Decorator?
As you know, I'm a big fan of trendy typography. From bookshelves to letterpress posters, there are plenty of wonderful designs to choose from.
In this house tour from Hus & Hem magazine, homeowners Robert and Sofie added word-accented bedding and wall art to their bedroom. I love the utilitarian look of these elements — the duvet cover actually reads "duvet cover." It reminds me, in a good way, of the generic food packaging on Repo Man.
Do you decorate with words in your home?

Simple Home Staging to Get Your Home Off of the Market Quicker
The Basics of Home Staging
Home staging is an important part of the home selling process. Staging your home helps make your home more appealing by giving potential buyers a great first impression of your home. Effective home staging is one of the key factors to attracting bids for your home and getting your home off of the market quicker.

What is Home Staging
In the real estate world home staging is the practice of strategically decorating your home to make it more appealing to potential buyers. The purpose of home staging isn't to pour a lot of money into a home that you're just going to sell anyway. Your goal is to put enough equity back into your home to justify the asking price and to create a universally aesthetically pleasing environment for potential buyers.
First Things First
Before beginning the home staging process you should do a little planning. The most important factor in preparing your home staging strategy is to set a budget. Your budget will help determine what changes and upgrades you can make while staging your home for resale. Sellers with larger budgets can make allowances for major appliance upgrades while sellers with smaller budgets must rely on inexpensive fixes to make their home more appealing to buyers. One of the most important principles in this process is to get great results without spending a lot of money. At the very least every budget should include a couple buckets of neutral color paint.Credit: zzpza (on Flickr)
Replace and Repair
A general rule of thumb is to start with the biggest, most labor intensive tasks first. Any interior painting that needs to be done should be done at this time. Obviously floor work, or things that require some sort of installation process should be taken care of first. Next you should take care of smaller repairs that need to be done, such as replacing outdated light fixtures, repairing cracks or holes in the walls, and mending rickety furniture. Any needed electrical repairs should also be taken care of at this time.
Clean and Declutter
The cleaning and declutter phase, is perhaps the most tedious. To start the cleaning process you should start at your home's main entrance and go from room to room, cleaning from top to bottom, leaving no area untouched. Pay special attention to areas that often go neglected. Keep in mind that many over looked items in your home are beacons for dust such ceiling fan blades, high hanging wall art, and electrical equipment. Pay attention to every nook and cranny; potential home buyers tend to notice is even minute details.
As you begin to declutter your space keep in mind that the purpose of each particular room. Survey the furniture and odds and ends in each room and evaluate each item. Decide if an item has a clearly defined purpose in the room that it is in. The items in a room should help define the room's purpose. Determine which things are essential and which things are unnecessary; remove the unnecessary items.
Set the Stage
As you begin staging remember that each room in your home should have a clearly defined purpose. Spare bedrooms that once served multiple purposes should be converted to a single purpose room (i.e. a bedroom or an office, not both.) Highlight each room's best features. Go for the minimal amount of furniture required to make a room functional. Make sure that furniture placement doesn't obstruct key features of a room such as a window. If a fireplace is a feature of a room arrange the furniture so that it becomes the focal point.
Don't Neglect the Exterior
Lastly don't neglect your home's exterior. Curb appeal is perhaps one of the biggest factors in luring potential buyers to your home. Chipping paint is a turn off to home buyers so a fresh coat of paint is essential. the yard should be freshly cut and neatly manicured. The outside of your home should feature seasonal plants. A house that looks good on the outside will certainly attract would be buyers.
Staging your home for resale is sure-fire way to make the best impression on potential buyers. Utilizing one of the many resources available will help you get your home off of the market in no time!

Porting VHBL to your game exploit
This guide is the second major revision of a guide I wrote a year and a half ago. In this guide I will explain how to port Half Byte Loader to your game exploit, and in particular to make it work on the PS Vita. I just updated the main file needed to create the exploit, so the timing is right.
This guide assumes that you found a user mode exploit in a game, and that you were able to write a binary loader.
So now what's next? Well, as you probably know if you've gone that far, the PSP scene doesn't really like "hello worlds". A hello world is nice, but it accomplishes nothing, it just draws Sony's attention to your exploit, and you know the vulnerability will be patched soon, while nobody really used the exploit.
Well, the next step is, ideally, a HEN or a custom firmware. Of course, this requires a kernel exploit, and we know how these are difficult to find. A much more doable task, that will make lots of people happy, is to port HBL to your exploit. HBL opens the door to lots of legal contents on the PSP and the Vita, and we designed it so that porting it to your game exploit can be done fairly easily.
This tutorial is valid at the time of its writing, for all games, and up to firmware 6.60 (Vita firmware 1.61). In theory, HBL will work on future firmwares, but of course new kinds of security might be introduced in new firmwares. Additionally, depending on your game (and its function imports), the compatibility and speed of homebrews might vary.
0. Easy as pie
HBL was designed to be easily ported to new game exploits. Most Game-specific files (except one) go in a subfolder that I will describe below. To complete this tutorial, you need basic shell skills, a working pspsdk, a working game exploit and the associated binary loader / hello world, a ruby interpreter, and basic ruby skills (usually, if you know any other scripting language, you'll figure it out easily, there are not so many changes required).
1. Get the HBL sources and compile them
The first step is to get the HBL sources, compile them, and if you're motivated, test them on an existing game exploit, to make sure the copy you have works correctly. (As I write this, it is recommended to test compilation with either the Mototrstorm or the Everybody's tennis exploits, as we might have broken backwards compatibility with older exploits)
The sources of HBL can be downloaded here (SVN client required)
In order to compile it, you need the PSPSDK (which you probably already have if you wrote a binary loader). Compilation is fairly easy, but in order to compile the HBL for a specific exploit, you have to specify the folder of the exploit. for example, make FOLDER=lifeup will compile HBL for the Motorstorm (EU) exploit.
2. Create your own exploit's folder
As you guessed, you will create a folder dedicated to your own exploit. Let's imagine you game is called wololo, then you can create a subfolder "wololo" in the eLoader folder. Basically, we want to reproduce the files that are in this folder for another exploit, and adapt them to our exploit. Let's have a look at the lifeeu folder:
The folder contains 6 files and 1 folder (which contains 1 file) that you will want to adapt to your exploit. I will describe each of them separately. Most of these files are automatically generated by a script, so this should be fairly simple.
3. Create your exploit's files
This is the linker file for h.bin. If you created a binary loader and a hello world, you already have this file from your hello world, and most likely you named it "linker.x". Copy linker.x from your hello world to linker_loader.x. Done!
This is the sdk for h.bin. If you created a binary loader and a hello world, you probably already have this file, and named it sdk.S. Copy sdk.s to sdk_loader.S. If you don't have this sdk, you can create it either by running prxtool on the EBOOT.BIN of the game, or by using the moskitool (a ruby version of the moskitool can be found in the eLoader/tools folder of the HBL). Most likely, if you created a hello world, you already have this file so I won't give more details for now. Done!
config folder, exploit_config.h, sdk_hbl.S, loader.h,
The contents of the config folder, as well as sdk_hbl.S, loader.h, and most of exploit_config.h (details below for exploit_config.h) are automatically generated by a ruby script that you can find in eLoader/tools/gen_exploit_config.rb.
The gen_exploit_config.rb has 2 "modes", but I will only describe the first one, which is required the first time you adapt your exploit. You need to have a usermem dump named memdump.bin (that you acquired from psplink with the command savemem 0x08800000 0x01800000 memdump.bin). Important note: For Vita compatibility, that dump must be done on a PSP running firmware 6.60. In addition to memdump.bin, you need a list of UIDs from the same psplink session, that you will name uidlist.txt. You can get that file by typing uidlist > uidlist.txt in psplink. That file needs to be in unix format, so be sure to convert it if you are running windows. Finally, you need a file named sdk.S, which is nothing else than the sdk.S you created for your game exploit, the one we just named sdk_loader.S above.
Put these 3 files (memdump.bin and uidlist.txt obtained from the same psplink session, as well as sdk.S from your exploit) in the tools folder, and run gen_exploit_config.rb
This should display a list of addresses (you will want to copy these addresses inside the stubs array of gen_exploit_config.rb so that other people who want to improve your exploit won't need a memory dump/uidlist anymore, although they will still need the sdk.S file), and generate a series of files in the tools/output subfolder.
The files generated by gen_exploit_config.rb in the output folder can be copied "as is" into your game's folder.
Final edits to exploit_config.h
You're almost done, but the file exploit_config.h need to be edited in two places, that you will find because they say "TODO" in big letters.
HBL_LOAD_ADDRESS This is where you will load HBL in RAM. You want a value that is outside of the boundaries of the game, and basically, a place where the PSP will accept to alloc roughly 200kB. you can get such an address in psplink while the game is running by typing malloc 2 test l 204800
HBL_ROOT is the name of the folder where your exploited savedata is. That folder name looks like ms0:/PSP/SAVEDATA/UCUS12345000. Important note: my tutorial on how to create a binary loader assumes you will load a file named ms0:/h.bin. On the PS Vita, this is not possible anymore, so you will have to adapt your binary loader in order to load the exploit from ms0:/PSP/SAVEDATA/XXXXXXX/h.bin (where XXXX is the folder of your savedata). In the Vita version of HBL, all HBL files for in that folder, and there is no subfolder.
copy linker_loader.x into linker_hbl.x, and replace the address value with the value of HBL_LOAD_ADDRESS that you figured out earlier while creating exploit_config.h. Done.
4. Compile
- run make FOLDER=yourfolder (alternate ways: make distrib FOLDER=yourfolder to remove debug messaging, make nonids FOLDER=yourfolder to remove NIDs-related heavy debug messaging)
- You're done, grab the h.bin and hbl.bin in the root, the config folder from your exploit's folder, and the libs_… folders from the root. You now have the meat of your HBL port ready.
5. Last but not least
HBL is licensed under the GPL. If you plan to distribute your compiled binaries, it is required that you provide your source code as well. Don't make us ask for it 😉
This tutorial is voluntarily vague. Porting HBL is fairly easy, but we assume that if you made it that far, you probably are skilled enough to do some research on your own. Nevertheless, don't hesitate to ask questions if you are running into problems 🙂
You are allowed to reproduce this article on other websites and/or translate it on condition that you put a clear link to this page in your copy.
6. More details
Porting VHBL is simple in theory, but many games do not import some functions that are necessary for HBL to run properly. One goal of the script gen_exploit_config.h is to analyze the imports of your game (this is why the sdk.S is necessary), and define some workarounds in exploit_config.h in case your game does not have all the necessary exports. This should work in most cases, but that script is still experimental and might make mistakes. Below are a few details on some of the "define" sections it creates:
TH_ADDR_LIST, EV_ADDR_LIST, SEMA_ADDR_LIST, and GAME_FREEMEM_ADDR can be computed for you by the tool eLoader/tools/freemem.rb. For that you will need a memory dump and a file uidlist.txt which is the output of the uidlist command in psplink (uidlist > uidlist.txt ). It is important to note that the memory dump and the uidlist need to be from the same session, otherwise the addresses will be incorrect. If you're on windows, also make sure that the uidlist.txt file is in the unix format (use your favorite editor to convert it if needed). For those interested, here are some technical details about those variables, but basically the tool should do it for you
TH_ADDR_LIST, is the list of threads you want to kill. Threads are defined by a SceUID, but since this value changes all the time, what we actually want is the addresses where they are defined. in psplink, while your game (or your hello world) is running, you can get a list of these thread by typing thlist. Then look for each thread's uid in ram. The address (hopefully unique) where the thid is defined, is what you want to put in this list.
EV_ADDR_LIST is the list of events you want to kill. You get this list by typing evlist in psplink. The rest is similar to the construction of TH_ADDR_LIST
SEMA_ADDR_LIST is the list of semaphores you want to kill. You get this list by typing smlist in psplink. The rest is similar to the construction of TH_ADDR_LIST above
GAME_FREEMEM_ADDR this is the address in Ram where the game's memory was allocated. Most game have this but for those that don't have it (patapon2), this value can be commented out. To find this value, type uidlist" PSPLink and look under the SceSysMemMemoryBlock section. You're looking for blocks that have a 0xFF (user) attribute (not 0x00!), and are not "stack". In the golf exploit, this block was simply called "block" and was easy to find. Again, you're interested in the entry address, not the uid.
UNLOAD_ADDITIONAL_MODULES : define this variable if possible. Comment it out only if you run into issues at the "free memory" stage of HBL
Other variables: The variables above are the basics of the config file. With those, HBL should basically work, or at least take you to a step where you can start debugging. But with time, HBL has grown and has been updated by several people. In order to maintain backwards compatibility and increase game coverage, the exploit_config file was added several config values. DISABLE_P5_STUBS is useful if you run into a crash/freeze even before hbl is loaded (just after firmware detection). SYSCALL_* are used for perfect syscall estimation on firmwares where this is available (TODO: explain syscalls estimation), etc… at this point you will probably need to dig in previous exploit_config.h files in order to find more on each macro you can possibly define.

The University of Alaska Anchorage on Tuesday released its report on the findings of the prioritization process it has been undergoing for the last year and a half. It gives recommendations and lays out a basic plan of how to move forward, but many questions remain unanswered.
From, "enhancement in the form of a tenured or tenure-track position is necessary for success" to, "expensive program with limited student demand and few graduates. Recommend expedited review for revision or elimination." This report lays recommendations, setting the stage for the next step in prioritization. But, there's one thing you won't find in the report.
"You won't see money, funding reductions in here," Bill Spindle, the vice chancellor of administration at UAA, said. Though some budget cuts will be an end result, he says that's not the focus of this report. "We mainly did this exercise to better align all our programs and functions with our overall mission."
The recommendations are based on extensive research and analysis by two faculty task forces, which looked at every program and function at UAA.
Each item is placed into rank 1 – which means it's a priority for enhancement – through 5 – which calls for further review, and potentially elimination. But, Spindle says just because something is ranked category 5, doesn't mean it's necessarily doomed.
Others are, however.
Sam Gingerich, the interim provost at UAA, says some things – like a number of certificate programs – are potentially on the chopping block because their time has passed.
"While they were very effective a decade ago, there's no longer as much interest or as much demand by employers, so those will, for the most part, be eliminated," Gingerich said. "However, there are a few in there that actually do still have a market that they need to meet."
The majority of the academic programs were found to fit in with UAA's mission, or even deserving of more resources. But, a number of programs landed in category 4 – in need of transformation, like the Elementary Education or Human Services programs. Diane Hirshberg – who is a professor of education policy and the president of the faculty senate at UAA – says even though no decisions are final, staff and faculty remain uneasy as state funding continues to drop.
"The administration is being very cautious and trying to let people know that they're trying to, that they're gonna put into place a process for budget cutting that is not going to lop off essential limbs, but I think faculty are going to be very, very nervous until we see what this really looks like," Hirshberg said.
In a letter sent from UAA Chancellor Tom Case, he says revenue projections have fallen by as much as $30 million over the next 3 to 5 years, and the savings from prioritization won't make up that difference.
Spindle says the university expects to act on the recommendations in the report by the end of this school year.

Machu Picchu doesn't offer much in the way of memorable meals. In fact, there's only two restaurants near the ancient city, both in same hotel. The rest are down the slope in Aguas Calientes, the village at the foot of Machu Picchu's peak. Even there, much of the food is typical cheap traveler´s fare-think pizza. Still, it's not as if people flock to Machu Picchu for the great meals.

Our customer support representative is here to answer your question "Can you write my argumentative essay about cell phones?"
Writing an essay about cell phones is a great opportunity to demonstrate your ability for critical thinking and analysis as well as showing off your research skills. After all how many people now own and use cell phones? What health effects are cell phones having?
There are research studies that show that the radiation from cell phones is harmful and other studies that show that it is not. Which is the truth? There are also studies showing that cell phones are breeding grounds for disease and all sorts of problems.
Then of course, there are the social issues concerning using cell phones, can you ever be truly away from work or be able to have privacy? Should young children be able to have cell phones?
There are so many topics that you could select when it comes to the effect of cell phones on our society, go to a third world country and you will find people with no food who have cell phones.
So the first step in your essay will be in selecting a topic about which to write as cell phone essays without some form of narrowing down would be very broad indeed.
An example could be "Using cell phones can lead to disease" or "marriage breakdown has increased due to the introduction of the cell phone". An argumentative essay would then introduce supporting essay to "prove your statement.
Writing Your Essay about Cell Phones
Once you have selected your topic you need to do some research to find supporting evidence and other work that will support your assertions.
Your introduction should introduce your argument and show why it is an issue and how big an issue it is.
Your main body should be made up of paragraphs that each contains a single supporting argument. So one paragraph for a report on the number and variety of bacteria found on a cell phones mouthpiece and another for a physicians anecdotal report of cell phone related illnesses.
Your conclusion must then pull together these individual arguments and show how they fully support your initial assertion to get the reader to agree with your point of view.

First Officer, Second Fiddle
I was hired by Air Midwest in June, 1990, and went to SkyWest in February, 1994, having never come even close to Captain upgrade. Back then, three years was a long time to wait for a left seat at a regional airline. At first I had no interest whatsoever in that fourth stripe, because I knew I had no business wearing it with 900 hours in my lone logbook.
But after a couple of years of doing all the paperwork, briefing passengers, cleaning up the cabin, and watching, always watching, the Captain, I began to think maybe I was ready. After another year, I thought I was experiencing a burnout, so I went to SkyWest's far greener pasture.
I had to wait four more years before my number came up there, and please don't ask anyone from there how truly burned out I was by the end of that stint. You could have tried to stick a fork in me, but I was so "done", you just would've bent your fork. Fortunately, I was able to pick and choose my Captains to some degree, and "yanking gear" for pilots like Mike Berry was always something I thought I could do for the rest of my career and still consider myself lucky.
I wish I'd kept those eight San Diego Brasilia Captain bid packets I got. It was everything I knew it'd be, only shorter-lived.
Then I came to American. I knew upgrade would take a while. Really, I did. I figured I'd probably "arrive" sometime around the time my youngest stepson graduated high school, which was unfortunate, because he'd probably never get to enjoy the benefits of having me making that extra loot and always coming home in a great mood from having flown with my favorite Captain. But having never flown a big jet, I figured I still had a lot to learn, and I did.
Justin started college last week, and I'm still in that right seat. Most of the time it's ok, some of the time it's a blast (like on this trip, as I'm with another former commuter dog who also shares my alma mater, CMSU), but occasionally it's an absolute grind. I'm still learning, thank God, but I often find myself accurately predicting exactly what will happen in the next few minutes or hours, and I remember that feeling too well. It's time to move up and, thanks to the increase in the mandatory airline pilot retirement age, there's nowhere to go.
I just wrote a piece I hope to see published called "First Officer, Second Fiddle". It's about the frustration that comes from having seen just about every way possible to skin a cat, being perfectly capable of skinning it whichever way the Captain thinks is best, but, lacking the ability (and, yes, motivation) to telepathically guess which way that is, guessing wrong and then being under-appraised as simply ignorant, owing to my "inexperience."

Miami and No. 8 Florida meet Saturday (7 p.m. ET, ESPN) for the first time since 2013 to kick off the 150th season of college football.
Though it might be hard to remember, Miami vs. Florida used to be the biggest, and only, in-state rivalry. The teams played every year between 1944 and 1987, until Florida decided to stop playing the game annually -- a move that still irks Miami fans. As soon as their rivalry stopped, the Miami-Florida State and Florida State-Florida matchups filled the void and grew in intensity as all three programs rose to prominence and often played with championship stakes on the line.
When the rivalry was held annually, the two teams played for a trophy called the Seminole War Canoe, an actual canoe hand-carved out of a 200-year-old cypress tree. It currently resides at the University of Miami Sports Hall of Fame, and there are no plans for it to go anywhere. Miami says the trophy was intended to be awarded only to the annual rivalry game winner, and since this is no longer an annual rivalry game, the canoe stays in Miami. The Hurricanes won the final annual meeting with the Gators 31-4 in 1987.
With the renewal of their rivalry upon us, here is a look back at the five most memorable moments in the history of the Miami-Florida game.
1971: The Gator Flop, and a dip in the dolphin pool
Florida quarterback John Reaves needed 10 yards to break Jim Plunkett's NCAA career passing record of 7,544 yards. With the game winding down and the Gators leading 45-8, Miami had the ball and was driving down the field. Florida used its timeouts, and it was at this time Harvin Clark approached coach Doug Dickey and asked if they should let Miami score so Reaves could get the ball back. Finally, Dickey agreed -- but he had no idea what Harvin had in mind.
Harvin told ESPN in 2010, "So I went back in the huddle and said, 'Here's what we need to do. We have to get John back in the game. So when they hike the ball, I just want everyone to fall on the ground.' And I remember John Clifford, our free safety, saying, 'What? We have to play these guys next year.' And I said, 'Come on now, John. I'm the captain, and this is what we're gonna do.'"
So the Gator Flop came to be, as nearly every player on the Gators' defense fell onto the field, allowing Miami quarterback John Hornibrook to score an easy touchdown, giving the ball back to the Florida offense. Reaves set the record on a 15-yard pass to Carlos Alvarez as time expired. Miami coach Fran Curci was so incensed, he called it "the worst thing I have ever seen in football." He refused to shake Dickey's hand afterward. To celebrate, several Gators jumped into the dolphin pool in the east end zone of the Orange Bowl, home to the Miami Dolphins' actual mascot, Flipper. (Flipper was not in the pool at the time.)
1980 (and 2008!): Flying oranges and last-second field goals
That was not the last time these teams had issues running out the clock. In 1980, Florida fans started pelting Miami players with oranges after a late touchdown gave the Hurricanes a 28-7 lead. Then-Miami coach Howard Schnellenberger decided to do something about it. He called a last-minute timeout so he could add a field goal to the final score with 1 second remaining. Miami won 31-7. Schnellenberger said afterward, "I did that because I wanted the press to come and ask me why I kicked the field goal."
It took 28 years, but Urban Meyer returned the favor in 2008. Rather than take a knee with 25 seconds left in a blowout, Florida kicked a field goal to make it 26-3. Miami coach Randy Shannon briskly walked past Meyer and in his postgame comments said, "I'll just say this one statement. Sometimes when you do things, and people see what type of person you really are, you turn a lot of people off. Now, whatever you want to get out of that, I won't say it again. But it helped us. It helped us more than you'll ever know."
1984: Kosar magic
The 1984 Florida-Miami game was one of the first televised on ESPN, and it ranks as one of the best games in the series. The teams met at the old Tampa Stadium in front of more than 72,000 fans. It appeared as if Florida might pull the upset on the defending national champions. The Gators led 20-19 with 41 seconds remaining, but then Bernie Kosar delivered one of the most memorable plays in Miami history. He led Miami 72 yards in only 29 seconds, capped off by a 12-yard touchdown pass to Eddie Brown in the corner of the end zone with 7 seconds left, to go up 26-20. Florida's last pass went for a pick-six and Miami won 32-20, giving the Hurricanes possession of the vaunted Seminole War Canoe. It was Miami's 13th consecutive victory, and first under new coach Jimmy Johnson, though the Hurricanes would lose the following week to Michigan. As for Florida, it was the Gators' only loss that season, but the year was marred by NCAA violations that forced the resignation of coach Charley Pell and led to Florida vacating its SEC championship.
2000: Bourbon Street brawl
Miami and Florida were set to meet in New Orleans for the 2001 Sugar Bowl. What could possibly go wrong? In the first game between the schools since their series ended in 1987, nostalgia was high -- but so were tensions. Days before the game, Miami and Florida players encountered each other on Bourbon Street just past 11 p.m. Predictably, it did not end well. Approximately 10-15 players from the two teams got into a verbal altercation. Who started the fight remains unclear to this day, since both sides gave differing accounts to their coaches and police. Soon, the fight spilled over to a nearby pizza restaurant, where one person involved in the fight fell through a window. The owner of the pizza place told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel at the time, "If somebody in here had been in the way, they would have been trampled. It was a bunch of guys, fighting each other, running around and chasing each other. There were so many of them."
Florida linebacker Alex Brown had a swollen left eye at media availability the following day. Brown said he didn't know who hit him, but said, "I wish I knew who did it. I'd kill him." Incredibly, no players were suspended as coaches Butch Davis and Steve Spurrier played it off as a "minor verbal confrontation." Miami beat Florida 37-20 in the actual game, setting the stage for its epic 2001 championship team. Years later, Miami tight end Jeremy Shockey said in the 30 for 30 documentary "The U Part 2" that Spurrier told him after the game, "You guys definitely deserved it. We got our ass beat off the field and on." Spurrier vehemently denied this, saying after the film came out, "They never called me and said, 'Did you say that?' But that's not the first time in life somebody put a quote on me that I didn't say. I did say most of them, but not that one."
2003: Brock Berlin's revenge
This one still makes Florida fans nauseous. Brock Berlin, one of the most highly touted quarterbacks coming out of high school in Louisiana, chose to sign with Spurrier and Florida. But after Spurrier left for the Redskins and Ron Zook became the head coach, Berlin decided to transfer to ... Miami, a personal affront to Gators fans everywhere. He earned a permanent place in the rivalry after his career-best day against the Gators.
"It was a very emotional week leading into that game," Berlin recalled in a recent phone interview with ESPN. "No. 1, it was my first start in the Orange Bowl, so there was a lot of emotion with that in itself, but to be able to play against my former teammates at Florida made it even better."
Florida took a 33-10 lead into the third quarter, but Berlin saw a spark in his teammates after he threw a 26-yard touchdown pass to Kevin Beard with four minutes left in the third quarter. Then just before the third quarter ended, Miami scored again. "We got into a rhythm. We gained momentum," Berlin said. "For me, it was one of those out-of-body experiences. You knew we're not walking out of here without a win."
Berlin battled cramps in the fourth quarter but refused to let it deter him, and Miami kept rolling -- scoring 28 unanswered points to win 38-33. To celebrate, he did the Gator chomp in front of the Florida section. "You can't dream up that scenario," Berlin said. "You can't dream up the way that game played out."

Cooking pot
collected 1966
Unknown Artist
According to anthropologist Virginia Watson, 'in addition to its manufacture by the Agarabi (Agarabe) in the Eastern Highlands of New Guinea, pottery is also made in at least one Kamano (Kafe) community, Lihona. Lihona is located in the Bismark Ranges overlooking the Ramu River valley ...'.
The Kamano at Lihona, as reported by Acting Assistant District Officer, William Brown, at Kainantu in 1955, were 'more closely connected with the Kaieuran people of the Ramu, than with the Kamano'. It is therefore also possible that this pot was traded up from the Ramu River area.
Lihona pots differ from those made by the Agarabe in that the walls are thinner than the Agarabe jars, and were found to be dark grey to black in colour.
