# Aboyne dress

'Aboyne dress' is the name given to the prescribed attire for female dancers in the Scottish national dances, such as the Flora MacDonald's fancy, the Scottish lilt, and others. Male dancers wear the kilt for these dances, the kilt being a predominantly male garment. There are two versions of Aboyne Dress in use. Some consider the Aboyne as quite suited to the graceful movements of the national dances.
The Aboyne Highland Games, established in 1867, have stipulated this style of attire for female dancers since 1952 for both National and Highland dances.

## Description

A typical Aboyne dress consists of a dark bodice or elaborate waistcoat, decorative blouse, full tartan skirt and sometimes a petticoat and apron. Some have a tartan sash (usually draped over the shoulder and coming down towards the hem of the skirt in the back) rather than an apron. While appearing to be simple and plain, a properly made, modern Aboyne dress might and can be quite expensive.
In one version, a tartan pattern skirt is worn with an over-the-shoulder plaid, a white blouse and petticoat, and a velvet bodice. The alternative is a white dress over a petticoat, together with a tartan pattern sash.

## History

The name derives from the Aboyne Highland Games in Scotland where, in the early 1950s the dance committee under games patron Lieutenant Colonel John Wilmot Nicol DSO of Ballogie, dissatisfied with the state of affairs of female Highland dance attire, prescribed new rules governing acceptable and better-looking attire for the female dancers. The problem, as they saw it, was that many felt that the female and male dancers should not be wearing the same outfits and that a separate style for women should be developed.
About 1949, the committee banned female dancers from wearing the kilt, sporran or medals. By 1952, they introduced an alternative attire of white blouse, tartan skirt and long black stockings, then for the September 1954 games, a new attire was introduced for all female dancers (previously it did not apply to girls between six and eleven). Approved by the Lord Lyon King of Arms, it was a skirt of light-weight tartan worn over a white petticoat, with a plaid of the same tartan material and a tight fitting sleeveless velvet corsage (the upper part of a woman's dress) over a white blouse. It was designed from the traditional Scottish woman's dress that was banned after the introduction of the Act of Proscription 1746 (England).
The men would continue to dance in traditionally male kilt and jacket, wearing bonnets and sporrans.
The original decision of the Aboyne committee applied to both the Highland dances and the national dances. The Royal Scottish Official Board of Highland Dancing a few years later modified the dress code so the Aboyne dress would be used by women for just the national dances, and a kilt-based outfit (without bonnet or sporran) for the Highland dances. To this day, however, at the Aboyne Highland Games, the wearing of the Aboyne dress by women is strongly "preferred", except for the sailor's hornpipe and Irish jig.

# Arnon Soffer

Arnon Soffer (Hebrew: ארנון סופר; born 24 December 1935) is an Israeli geographer and a professor of Geography and environmental sciences, specialising in water issues and demography. Soffer is one of the founders of the University of Haifa. He is known for his research into demographic, water, environmental, political, and strategy issues of the state of Israel.
Soffer has been vocal about geographical processes that endanger the existence of the State of Israel, and was one of the first to describe the increase in population of Palestinians as a "demographic threat" to the State of Israel. He is known as one of the architects behind the Israeli Disengagement from Gaza in 2005.

## Biography

Soffer was born in Tel Aviv to parents Jacob and Chasia Soffer, both immigrants from Belarus. Soffer grew up in Rishon LeZion, which was originally a moshava and became a city when he turned 15 (in 1950). He and his classmates from the Gymnasia Realit formed the first handball team of the city, which operated under the auspices of "Maccabi". In the 1950s Soffer played in Israel's handball national team. During his military service in the IDF, he served in the Nahal Brigade.
Soffer has three academic degrees from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In 1965, he was granted a position as a lecturer at the University of Haifa. Soffer served in a variety of roles in the academic faculty at the University of Haifa, including the Department for Geography, chairman of the Jewish-Arab Center and the Institute for the Study of the Middle East, Dean of the Faculty for Social Sciences and Vice Chairman of the Center for National security research. Since 1970, he has taught, mentored and is involved in the IDF Command and Staff College; In 1978 he became a professor at the National Defense College and was appointed head of the College Research Center in 2007.
Soffer is now retired, and teaches only the security officials studying at the University of Haifa, including students from the National Defense College, Tactical Command College, the Havatzalot Program of the Intelligence Corps, and the Trainee Course of the Israel police. He is married with four children and eight grandchildren.

## Criticism

His obsession with the demographic threat posed by the increase of the Arab population led to some of his colleagues at the University of Haifa nicknaming him "Arnon the Arab-counter", a joking reference to the fact that the Hebrew surname Soffer literally means "one who counts". As such he has been credited with working to implement the "separation policy" of Israel. Soffer received pushback for his claim that the gather of secular Israelis in Tel Aviv "emboldened" Arab citizens of Israel and endangered the state. He had proposed a complete ban on construction and internal migration to the city.
He also is opposed to the immigration of African migrants seeking asylum to Israel, claiming that the "infiltrators" will pose a demographic threat to Israel.

# Acaxee

The Acaxee or Acaxees were a tribe or group of tribes in the Sierra Madre Occidental in eastern Sinaloa and NW Durango. They spoke a Taracahitic language in the Southern Uto-Aztecan language family. Their culture was based on horticulture and the exploitation of wild animal and plant life. They no longer exist as an identifiable ethnic group.

## History

Before Spanish Colonization, the population of the Acaxee was roughly 20,000 organized into many smaller independent chiefdoms. They lived in very low-density farms with homes separated by up to half a kilometer. Early accounts by Jesuit missionaries allege continual warfare and cannibalism among the Acaxee, Tepehuan, and Xixime who inhabited Nueva Vizcaya.
The Spanish conquered Sinaloa from 1529 to 1531 which included conquering the Acaxee. They were devastated by Spanish introduced diseases and the encomienda system. In December 1601, the Acaxees, under the direction of an elder named Perico, began an uprising against Spanish rule. This revolt was called the Acaxee Rebellion. And eventually ended in a defeat of the Acaxee.
They are said to have been converted to the Catholic faith by the society of Jesuits in 1602. Over the centuries of Spanish rule, the Acaxee were gradually assimilated into Mexican society, and while no longer a separate ethnic group, many in Sinaloa are descendants of the Acaxee.

## Culture

Ethnographer Ralph Beals reported in the early 1930s that the Acaxee played a ball game called "vatey [or] batey" on "a small plaza, very flat, with walls at the sides".

## Subdivisions

* Acaxee (proper)

# Sorbus californica

Sorbus californica, the California mountain ash, is an aggregate species of rowans. It forms a tree or bush with compound leaves (many leaflets) that are toothed almost from base to apex. It produces orange-red fruit. It is often confused with the western North American species S. sitchensis, which has leaflets with few teeth and pinkish fruit.
The species is native to western North America. It is found in the mountains of California as the name suggests, but is not an ash. It is sometimes cultivated.
* S. californica fruits (left) are apple-shaped while those of S. aucuparia (right) are conical at the stem end.
* The individual leaflets are toothed almost from base to apex.
# Bob Chambers (athlete)

Robert David "Bob" Chambers (November 16, 1926, in Santa Clara County, California – November 6, 2010, in San Pedro, California) was an American track and field athlete known for running the half mile and 800 meters. Representing the US, Chambers finished sixth at the 1948 Olympics.
While running for Los Gatos High School, Chambers ran the second fastest 880 in history (to that point in time) 1:54.4. He was unable to run in the CIF California State Meet because it was cancelled during World War II. Following his stint in the U.S. Navy for the war, he entered the University of Southern California in 1946. As a sophomore in 1948, he finished second in the 800 meters at the 1948 NCAA Track and Field Championships. A few weeks later he also finished third at the 1948 Olympic Trials. In the Olympic final, his two American teammates again finished ahead of him, led by gold medalist Mal Whitfield, who had also beaten him at the NCAA and Olympic Trials.
After the Olympics Chambers, returned to USC leading the team to back to back NCAA Championships in 1949 and 1950, as team captain his senior year.
He went on to be the track coach at Los Angeles Pierce College. While at Pierce, Chambers invented a lane seeding formula for the Southern California Championships. It was adopted into the rules in 1970. The NCAA adopted the scheme a year later and by 1972 it became the standard by which the Olympics and other global competitions use for lane seeding.
In 1954 he joined the Los Angeles County Lifeguards and remained a lifeguard for 34 years until 1988.
He is a member of the Los Gatos High School Hall of Fame.

# 2006 Bulgarian presidential election

Presidential elections were held in Bulgaria on 22 October 2006, as decided on 27 July 2006 by the Bulgarian Parliament. The runoff took place on 29 October 2006, while the electoral campaign spanned 19 September – 20 October. At the election, Georgi Parvanov won his second and final term as President of Bulgaria.
Some of the right-wing parties were disunited at the time but still chose to support a common candidate, Nedelcho Beronov. Prime minister and head of the Socialist Party Sergey Stanishev expressed his strong support for the current president, Georgi Parvanov, in July 2006, and Parvanov officially stated his desire to run for a second term on 25 August 2006. He was also backed by the other two members of the then ruling Triple coalition – NDSV and DPS.
In the first round, incumbent Georgi Parvanov received 64% of the vote, ahead of nationalist leader Volen Siderov who came second with 21.5%. However, Parvanov was forced into a runoff with Siderov, as Bulgarian law requires a turnout of 50% for a president to be elected in the first round. Turnout for the first round was 44%. The defeated right-wing forces called for abstention, while some far-left formations expressed their support for Siderov.
The second round saw Parvanov win a decisive victory with 75.9% as opposed to Siderov's 24.1%, meaning that Parvanov became the first person to be democratically re-elected as President of Bulgaria. Second round turnout was 43%.
