Raymond van Barneveld (born April 20, 1967 in The Hague, Netherlands), nickname Barney and The Man, is a professional darts player. He is a five time World Darts Champion, two time UK Open Champion and the Las Vegas Desert Classic Champion. From January to June 2008, he was the PDC world number one ranked player.

His victory in the 2007 final, added to his four previous BDO Championships brought him level with Eric Bristow as a five-time world champion. He is the most successful Dutch darts player ever, and has a significant effect in putting the game of darts on the map in The Netherlands.

BDO career

Barneveld’s first World Championship appearance came in 1991 playing in the Embassy World Championship at the Lakeside Country Club, but his first round match ended in a 0-3 defeat to Australian Keith Sullivan.

He started to make some progress on the British Darts Organisation circuit, reaching the quarter-finals of the Belgian Open in September 1990 and the German Open in March 1991. His first semi-final came at the Swiss Open in June 1991.

He failed to qualify for the World Championship in 1992, but made it back to Lakeside in 1993, which would be the last time that a unified World Championship would be staged. Barneveld lost in a close match 2-3 to John Lowe, who would go on to win the championship. Shortly after the 1993 World Final, the top players in the game at the time formed the World Darts Council (WDC, now the PDC) and left the BDO.

Barneveld continued to make progress in the BDO Open events in 1994 after the split, reaching the quarter-finals at the Dutch Open and Berlin Open, the semi-final at the Belgium Open and his first final, at the Finnish Open where he lost to Andy Fordham.

He continued his good run of form into the 1995 World Championship by putting out Les Wallace, Dave Askew, Colin Monk and Martin Adams to reach his first World Final. But it ended in defeat 3-6 to Welshman Richie Burnett.

After second round defeats in 1996 and 1997, the former postman took his first world title in 1998 by beating Richie Burnett in a repeat of the 1995 final. This match however is often listed amongst the greatest of all-time having reached 5-5 in sets before Barneveld took the deciding set 4-2 in legs.

He successfully defended the trophy one year later by the same winning margin, this time against Ronnie Baxter of England. He is only the second player in the tournament’s history to have launched a successful defence of his title; the other being Eric Bristow.

His run of success ended in the first round in 2000, crashing out to Chris Mason, who averaged 100 and ended Barneveld’s hopes of a hat-trick of titles.

Barneveld lost in the quarter-finals in 2001 (4-5 to Ted Hankey) and 2002 (3-5 to Mervyn King) before returning to the final in 2003. He clinched his third world title by beating Richie Davies of Wales 6-3.

His 2004 campaign ended in the semi-finals, when Andy Fordham beat him 5-4 in another memorable match.

A fourth title followed in 2005. He never dropped a set in the first three rounds as he beat Gary Anderson, Mike Veitch and Vincent van der Voort. A 5-3 semi-final win over Darryl Fitton and 6-2 triumph over Martin Adams of England) in the final brought him that fourth title.

Barneveld reached his sixth final in 2006, and was aiming to equal Eric Bristow’s record of five BDO world titles. On this occasion however, his hopes were ended by 21 year-old fellow countryman Jelle Klaasen who prevailed 7-5.

He has also won the prestigious Winmau World Masters title twice: once in 2001 when he recorded a win in the final over Jarkko Komula of Finland and again in 2005 when he beat Goran Klemme in the final. Other major darts tournaments that he has won at least twice include The World Darts Trophy and The International Darts League.

PDC career

Main article: Taylor-Barneveld rivalry

After playing in the BDO for fifteen years, winning four World Championships, van Barneveld announced his move from the BDO to the PDC on 15 February 2006. He cited his reasons as wanting a greater challenge, and regularly playing against players like Phil Taylor. He had an incredible first year in the PDC, having started from scratch in the rankings. Within twelve months he had reached World number two and became World Champion.

His PDC debut came in the 2006 Premier League competition. He won his first match convincingly 8-1 against Ronnie Baxter. On March 23 he hit his first televised nine dart finish and faced Phil Taylor later in the same night, fighting back for a 7-7 draw. The re-match came on Barneveld’s 39th birthday, but this time Taylor won the deciding leg for an 8-6 victory. Van Barneveld suffered a surprise 11-3 semi-final defeat in the Premier League to fellow Dutchman Roland Scholten.

Van Barneveld then started a very successful run with a 13-5 final victory over Colin Lloyd in the final of the International Darts League for his 11th BDO Grand Slam tournament. He won his first major PDC title in June by beating Barrie Bates in the final of the UK Open at the Reebok Stadium, Bolton. Earlier in the day, he beat Phil Taylor in the quarter-finals, accomplishing one of his dreams which he announced after switching to the PDC. Van Barneveld beat Taylor again just weeks later in the semi-finals of the 2006 Las Vegas Desert Classic. He lost 6-3 to Canadian John Part in the final the following day.

Soon after this Barneveld made alterations to his game, he changed darts and began using the “stacking” technique used by Phil Taylor. The darts used were a gram lighter than his old ones and cost the equivalent of £1 from a local store in Holland.

After losing in the first round of the 2006 Bavaria World Trophy to rising talent Michael van Gerwen, van Barneveld acknowledged that he needed to work on his finishing throws. Although he played well in the Sky Bet World Grand Prix, he lost to Phil Taylor in the second round.

Van Barneveld and Taylor met again in the 2007 PDC World Championship final, in a match which Taylor later described as the best final he had been involved in. Van Barneveld came back from 3 sets down to beat Taylor 7-6 in the sudden death leg in one of the greatest darts matches of all time to match Eric Bristow’s record of five world titles. In February 2007 Raymond won the 2007 Masters of Darts tournament by beating Peter Manley 7-0 in sets in the final with a 107 three dart average. His success has also continued away from the cameras.

In the 2007 Premier League Darts, he never fared as well as he did in 2006, losing to Phil Taylor twice, Dennis Priestley and Colin Lloyd in the group section. He did however manage to finish second but lost an exciting but error filled encounter 10-11 to Terry Jenkins in the semi-final.

Barneveld made amends for his disappointing Premier League campaign however by inflicting one of Taylor’s heaviest defeats (11-4) in the quarter-final of the 2007 UK Open and went on to successfully defend his title beating Colin Lloyd 11-4 in the semi-final and Vincent van der Voort in the final 16-8. In doing this, Barneveld became the first person to successfully defend the UK Open crown. A month later, he continued his surge of major titles by beating Terry Jenkins 13 legs to 6 in the final of the 2007 Las Vegas Desert Classic. Barneveld’s dream of winning the five major PDC tournament titles in 2007- the World Championship, UK Open, Las Vegas Desert Classic, World Matchplay and the World Grand Prix- ended on Thursday 26th July, when he was defeated by Adrian Lewis 16 legs to 14 in the quarter finals of the World Matchplay in Blackpool.

His haul of titles in the PDC has continued to grow since his switch. In addition to his four major titles (the World Championship, two UK Open Championships and the Vegas Desert Classic) - he has added eleven non-televised PDC Pro Tour titles (five UK Open Regionals and six Players Championships).

2008 is proving to be Barneveld’s most barren year thus far in the P.D.C. in terms of success. His defence of the World Championship crown was seriously thwarted by a bout of flu. He managed to win his first two matches quite comfortably, although nearly had to retire during his 2nd round match due to breathing problems. He was defeated by Kevin Painter in the 3rd round by 4 sets to 2. Following his disappointment, he reached the semi-finals of the 2008 Premier League Darts, but was defeated for the third consecutive year at this stage of the tournament, defeated by James Wade. He was also knocked out of the early stages of the U.S. Open, the Las Vegas Desert Classic by Alan Tabern and in the semi-finals of the U.K. Open by Gary Mawson, after having defeated rival Phil Taylor by 10 legs to 9 a round earlier. He was also defeated in the quarter finals of the World Matchplay by Wayne Mardle.

Barney Army

Barneveld now gets chants of ‘Barney Army’, which is a play on the England cricket team’s nickname ‘Barmy Army’ as a result of the Dutchman’s popularity since he joined the PDC in early 2006 and England’s disappointing performances in the 2006/07 Ashes.

Waltz in C# minor is the second work of Chopin’s opus 64 and the companion to the Minute Waltz (Opus 64 no. 1). It consists of three main themes:

• Theme A tempo giusto chordal with a walking pace feel;
• Theme B più mosso (faster) — theme stated in running eighth notes, with all harmony in the left hand.
• Theme C più lento (slower) — a sostenuto in the tonic major (D-flat major, enharmonic equivalent to C-sharp major). Besides the slower general pace, the melody is in quarter notes except for a few flourishes in eighth notes, giving this section the quality of an interlude before the dramatic restatement of Theme B

The overall layout of the piece is A B C B A B. The piece ends with a fade-out rather than the strident chords of his first Grande Valse Brillante (Op 18).

Patrick Vaughan (born 1965) is an American historian and scholar, currently teaching in Institute for American Studies and Polish Diaspora at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland. He specializes in the history of the Cold War and America’s use of “soft power” to achieve its foreign policy aims in the 1970s which helped turn the tide of the Soviet-American conflict.

Career

In 1999 Vaughan published an article in the Polish Review examining Zbigniew Brzezinski’s role in helping the Carter Administration deter a potential Soviet invasion of Poland in late 1980. This work won the Southern Historical Association’s John Snell Memorial Award and quickly opened a number of doors for the scholar.

Brzezinski wrote Vaughan a personal letter offering him exclusive access to his personal archives should he wish to expand the article into a Ph.D. dissertation. Vaughan came to Poland on a Fulbright grant and has studied in Brzezinski’s archives at the Library of Congress courtesy of multiple grants from the George Kennan Center and Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.

In 2003 Vaughan’s work won the Kazimierz Dziewanowski Award sponsored by the Polish Institute of Arts & Sciences of America (PIASA) and the Polish Embassy in Washington D.C. to honor America’s best dissertation pertaining to Poland. Polish Ambassador Przemsylaw Grudzinski presented Vaughan with this award during a banquet held in conjunction with PIASA’s 62nd Annual Meeting at Northeastern University, Boston, MA. Dr. Thaddeus V. Gromada, Executive Director of PIASA, stated in the press release “Vaughan’s work will make a major contribution to the historiography of the Cold War by redefining Brzezinski’s place in it and in the public and controversial debates over the direction of U.S. foreign policy from the 1950s to the present.”

Vaughan is preparing to publish first-ever full biography of Zbigniew Brzezinski in early 2008.

His usual position is on the wing and with his big size he can also play as a second rower.

Tupou started playing in the National Rugby League competition for the Brisbane Broncos in 2004. His size and speed led many to hope he could help fill the huge gap left in the Broncos’ wings since Wendell Sailor and Lote Tuqiri left the club to play for the Wallabies. In the 2006 season, the year the Broncos won the premiership, Tupou (together with captain Darren Lockyer) was the Broncos’ top try-scorer. He scored more than once in several matches, earning him the nickname “two-tries Tupou”. However he didn’t play for Brisbane in 2007, instead playing in their Queensland Cup side, the Aspley Broncos, and in round 7 was released from his contract with the club.

England

Tame signed for Bradford Bulls in April 2007. Tupou agrees to Bradford switch as a direct replacement for Lesley Vainikolo who joined Gloucester RFC in May 2007. Tame made his debut debut against Huddersfield Giants in the Quarter Finals of the 2007 Challenge Cup on the 6th June,Tupou’s debut double in Bulls landslide}} when he came on as a sub and scored two tries.

Chicken War by Henryk Rodakowski

Chicken War (Polish: Wojna kokosza) is the colloquial name for a 1537 anti-royalist and anti-absolutist rokosz (rebellion) by the Polish nobility. The derisive name was coined by the magnates, who for the most part supported the King and claimed that the “war’s” only effect was the near-extinction of the local chickens by the nobles gathered for the rokosz at Lwów, in Ma?opolska. (The magnates’ choice of “kokosz” — it actually means “laying hen” — may have been inspired by a play on words between “kokosz” and the similar-sounding “rokosz.”)

At the start of his reign, King Zygmunt I the Old inherited a Kingdom of Poland with a century-long tradition of liberties of the nobility, confirmed in numerous privileges. Zygmunt faced the challenge of consolidating internal power in order to face external threats to the country. During the rule of his predecessor, Alexander I, the statute of “Nihil novi” had been instituted, effectively forbidding kings of Poland to promulgate laws without the consent of the Parliament. This proved crippling to Zygmunt’s dealings with his nobles and magnates, as well as a serious threat to the country’s stability. In order to strengthen his power, Zygmunt initiated a set of reforms, establishing a permanent conscription army in 1527 and extending the bureaucratic apparatus necessary to govern the state and finance the army. Supported by his Italian consort, Bona Sforza, he began buying up land in order to enlarge the royal treasury. He also initiated a process of restitution of royal properties, previously pawned or rented to the nobles.

In 1537, however, the King’s policies led to a major conflict. The nobility, gathered near Lwów to meet with a levée en masse, called for a military campaign against Moldavia. However, the lesser and middle strata of the nobility called a rokosz, or semi-legal rebellion by the peers, in order to force the King to abandon his reforms. The nobles presented him with 36 demands, most notably:

1. A cessation of further land acquisitions by Queen Bona Sforza;
2. Exemption of the nobility from the tithes;
3. A cleanup of the Treasury rather than its expansion;
4. Confirmation and extension of the privileges of the nobility;
5. Lifting of the toll or exemption of the nobility from it;
6. Adoption of a law concerning incompatibilitas — the incompatibility of certain offices that were not to be joined in the same hand (for instance, that of a Starosta and of a Palatine or Castellan);
7. The carrying out of a law requiring the appointment of only the local nobles to most important local offices; and
8. The creation of a body of permanent advisors to the king.

Finally, the protesters criticized the role of Queen Bona, whom they blamed for the “bad education” of young Prince Zygmunt August (the future King Zygmunt II August), as well as for seeking to increase her power and influence in the state.

It soon transpired, however, that the nobility’s leaders were divided and that achieving a compromise was almost impossible. Too weak to start a civil war against the King, the protesters finally agreed to what was thought a compromise. The King rejected most of their demands, while accepting the principle of incompatibilitas the following year and agreeing not to force the election of the future king vivente rege, that is, in the lifetime of the reigning king.

Thereupon the nobility returned to their homes, having achieved little.

Elin Maria Pernilla Nordegren Woods (born January 1, 1980, in Stockholm, Sweden) is a former Swedish model, and is married to the professional golfer Tiger Woods.

Early life

Nordegren’s mother, Barbro Holmberg, is a politician and former migration and asylum policy minister of Sweden, while her father, Thomas, is a radio journalist who has served as bureau chief in Washington, D.C. for the Swedish Broadcasting media. She has one older brother, Axel, and a twin sister, Josefin.

Relationship with Tiger Woods

Nordegren and her twin sister Josefin had been working as au pairs for Swedish golfer Jesper Parnevik when he introduced her to Woods during the 2001 British Open. In November 2003, Woods and Nordegren attended the Presidents Cup tournament in South Africa and became officially engaged when Woods proposed at the luxury Shamwari Game Reserve. On October 5, 2004, they were married by the 19th hole at the exclusive Sandy Lane resort in Barbados. The ceremony reportedly cost over $1.5 million. Privacy was achieved by buying out the island’s sole helicopter charter company and by booking the entire hotel - 200 rooms ranging in price from $700 to $8,000 per night.

On June 18, 2007, Woods announced the birth of their daughter, Sam Alexis Woods, early that morning, just a day after Woods finished second in the 2007 U.S. Open.

On September 2, 2008, Woods announced on his website they were expecting another child in late winter.

Nude photographs hoax

Shortly after Nordegren’s relationship with Woods became public, nude photographs of a woman resembling Nordegren began circulating on the internet, with text claiming it was, in fact, her. Nordegren, whose modeling work did include bikini photo shoots, vehemently denied that she has ever posed nude. The nude photographs claimed to be of Nordegren actually depict Playboy magazine model Kim Hiott, and most are derived from the 2000 edition of Playboy’s “Nudes” special edition. Despite this identification and repeated denials from Nordegren and Woods, in September 2006 (immediately prior to the 2006 Ryder Cup) Irish magazine The Dubliner published an article “Ryder Cup Filth for Ireland,” which displayed the nude photographs of Hiott and again claimed they were of Nordegren. Woods described the story as “unacceptable,” and his agent Mark Steinberg said, “Everyone knew it wasn’t her. It’s plain as day.” Steinberg also said the couple was considering legal recourse against the magazine. The Dubliner issued an apology for the story, saying that they had printed the photos as a “satire of tabloid publishing.”

Nordegren won the lawsuit and as part of the settlement accepted by a Dublin court, The Dubliner must publish its lengthy apology in a variety of venues, including in its next issue. If the magazine fails to meet the conditions the award will be increased to $366,500 and the publishers will have to pay Nordegren Woods’ legal costs.
