# Union Démocratique Mauricienne

The Union Démocratique Mauricienne (UDM) was a political party in Mauritius.

## History

In 1969 the Union Démocratique Mauricienne (UDM) was founded by barrister and politician Guy Ollivry and other members of the Legislative Assembly following their resignation from the Parti Mauricien Social Démocrate (PMSD). Other prominent figures who left the PMSD to join the newly-formed UDM were Raymond Rivet and Maurice Lesage. They refused to support PMSD's leader Gaëtan Duval's decision to move, without elections, from Opposition to the ailing government led by Seewoosagur Ramgoolam who had lost the support of Sookdeo Bissoondoyal's IFB.

## Innovations

Before the dissolution of Ollivry's party in 1995 it campaigned for electoral reform, proportional representation, as well as share ownership of workers in each enterprise.

## Electoral success

Union Démocratique Mauricienne presented a large number of candidates at the 1976 Legislative Assembly elections, collecting 1.03% of votes but no UDM candidate was elected. At the 1982 General Elections the UDM's candidates collected 0.11% of votes but none of them was elected.

## Controversies

In 2005 during investigations by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) on the embezzlement of nearly Rs 1 Billion from Mauritius Commercial Bank (MCB) to the detriment of the National Pensions Fund (NPF) by masterminds Teeren Appasamy, Robert Lesage, Dev Manraj, Renu Manraj, Thierry Sauzier and others, donations made to UDM came to light. Teeren Appasamy's associate Donald Ha Yeung revealed to ICAC that Rs 1 Million was used in an attempt to revive Guy Ollivry's defunct party UDM. In addition they also financed the Labour Party's congresses, a short-lived propagandist newspaper L'Indépendant, commemoration of Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam's birthday (Rs 0.9 Million), as well as air tickets for Navin Ramgoolam's travels. Appasamy's contact within the Labour Party was Navin Ramgoolam's Finance Minister Vasant Bunwaree.
# Portal Peak

Portal Peak is a 2,926-metre (9,600-foot) mountain summit located four kilometers west of Bow Lake in Banff National Park, in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada. Its nearest higher peak is Mount Thompson, 1.0 km (0.62 mi) to the northwest. Portal Peak is situated east of the Wapta Icefield, and is a member of the Waputik Mountains. Portal Peak can be seen from the Icefields Parkway at Bow Lake.

## History

Portal Peak was named in 1916 by Charles Sproull Thompson (1869-1921), who participated in numerous first ascents in the Canadian Rockies. In August 1897, Charles Thompson, Hugh Stutfield, and J. Norman Collie camped on the shores of Bow Lake; then proceeded to climb the Bow Glacier, which at that time descended farther down into the valley; then crossed the Wapta Icefield to attain the summit of Mount Gordon. Portal Peak flanks one side of Bow Glacier, which in 1897 was considered the portal to the Wapta Icefield.
The mountain's name was officially adopted in 1924 by the Geographical Names Board of Canada.
The first ascent of Portal Peak was made in 1926 by D. Duncan and L. Hudson.

## Geology

Portal Peak is an overthrust peak situated between the Bow Glacier and Peyto Glacier. Like other mountains in Banff Park, Portal Peak is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Precambrian to Jurassic periods. Formed in shallow seas, this sedimentary rock was pushed east and over the top of younger rock during the Laramide orogeny.

## Climate

Based on the Köppen climate classification, Portal Peak is located in a subarctic climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and mild summers. Winter temperatures can drop below -20 °C with wind chill factors below -30 °C. Precipitation runoff from Portal Peak drains into the Bow River which is a tributary of the Saskatchewan River.

# Battle of Trancoso (1140)

The Battle of Trancoso in 1140 was an episode of the Reconquista, in which Afonso I of Portugal defeated a contingent of Muslim troops near Trancoso that was invading Portuguese territory.

## History

In 1135, Afonso I founded the castle of Leiria, between Coimbra and Santarém. Not only did it have the purpose of guarding the road that connected the two cities, but it was his first act of aggression directed at Muslims, as the garrison was also obliged to attack the territory of Santarém.
In the Battle of Ourique, the Portuguese defeated the Almoravid troops commanded by a certain "Esmar", in 1139. The following year, Afonso renewed hostilities against the king of Leon Afonso VII, his cousin, and invaded Galicia. Esmar knowing that the king of Portugal was in Galicia and was suffering setbacks, he regrouped his troops and attacked the castle of Leiria, which he conquered, razed and massacred its garrison, taking prisoners of those who were captured alive. He then advanced through Portuguese territory until reaching Trancoso, which he also sacked.
Upon learning of what had happened, Afonso I of Portugal signed a truce with his cousin and traveled from Galicia to Trancoso to fight the Muslims, whom he destroyed in two encounters. In the aftermath of the battle, he founded the monastery of Tarouca in the presence of his troops.
