"What are the best European Heritage day outings in Northern Ireland'
From Foreign Perspectives, Today, Read 0 times. Similar articles
With only two days of heritage days and a massive booklet listing what must be hundreds of places, you really need to take some time to identify what will be the best places to see (assuming that there’s decent weather, of course).
Be careful of the small print as some places are only free on one of the days or have, say, the gardens open both days but tours only free on one of those days. Slightly misleading is that many of the places listed as free (getting on for 90%) are always free...

If You Ignore Him, He'll Go Away
From sparrow chat, Today, Read 0 times. Similar articles
If there’s one thing I despise about America, it’s the ability of a small minority here to whip up a national fervor. The Dove World Outreach Center in Florida has a congregation of only fifty members, yet its pastor’s decision to burn copies of the Koran on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks has induced a reaction that’s been skilfully spread throughout the world.
Pastor Terry Jones is a sad, sad, man. He says he’s prayed long...

From Radio Free Mike, Today, Read 0 times. Similar articles
An excerpt from the Cuba chapter of Sweetness and Blood is up on the front page of World Hum, accompanied by an interview with the author. We Are Pleased. The photo shows Eduárdo Valdés at work on a surfboard in Havana. Surfboards are not easy to make in Cuba, since the island’s planned economy doesn’t provide much in the way of surf equipment or material. The story of how Cubans manage to surf against these unusual odds is fairly wonderful.

Japan gets 10 institutions in the QS World University Rankings Results for 2010
This year it is the 'THES-less' QS rankings. THES is pursuing a different methdology with a different partner.
The results for Japan are about the same as last year with a bit of 'slippage' down in the rankings for most all the institutions. Japan does not rate any in the top ten or top twenty. Todai and Kyodai are neck-and-neck in the top 30 now. Waseda is the only private university to make the top 200.
