# South African Press Association

The South African Press Association (SAPA) was the national news agency of South Africa from 1938 until its closure on 31 March 2015.

## History

The agency was established on 1 July 1938 by major South African newspapers to facilitate the sharing of news. Reuters had dominated the internal supply of news in South Africa until 1938. When SAPA was founded, Reuters retained the exclusive right to supply it with world news. Reuters ended this partnership in 1995, when it began expanding its own Southern African activities in competition with SAPA. In February 1938, the constitution for the new agency was framed, and by April that year, it became a co-operative news agency under the control of every British and Afrikaans newspaper that wished to join.
During the apartheid era, the agency was criticised by the ruling National Party for inadequate reporting of the government's viewpoint and Afrikaner culture.
From 1964 to 1981, SAPA owned a subsidiary in the Inter-Africa News Agency (IANA) in neighbouring Rhodesia (later Zimbabwe), which was later taken over by the Zimbabwe Mass Media Trust.
The non-governmental agency continued to function under the ownership of South African newspapers.$^{:257}$ SAPA was the major news supplier of foreign and domestic news to South Africa, providing all forms of media – newspapers, television, radio and web-based – with news, videos and photographs. Its newswire provided a constant feed of news to newsrooms in South Africa. The agency also maintained a picture and news video service and press release service called link2media. Traditionally, SAPA relied on its regional newspaper members for regional South African news, in addition to reporting by its own staff.$^{:155}$
Its head office was in Johannesburg, and it had bureaus in Cape Town, Durban, Bloemfontein and Pretoria. Its primary area of distribution was in South Africa, although it did have clients abroad as well as exchange agreements with other major news agencies.

## Closure

SAPA ceased operations on March 31, 2015 after its assets were liquidated. Its assets comprised one oversized boardroom table which was thrust into staffers' recreation room after the boardroom lease was surrendered during the agency's steady decline. Under the stewardship of Naspers employee Minette Ferreira, who acted as Sapa chairperson at the time, no copies of board minutes chronicling Sapa's demise were released to sacked employees or any media archive for future use by historians. Three companies – Gallo Images, KMM Review Publishers, and Sekunjalo Investments Holdings – expressed an interest in setting up an operation on similar lines as the agency, which is a special category of non-profit that may not be sold.

# Stirling Health and Care Village

Stirling Health and Care Village is a health and care facility at Livilands Gate in Stirling, Scotland. It is managed by NHS Forth Valley as well as Stirling and Clackmannanshire's HSCP. It was formerly known as Stirling Community Hospital.

## History

The facility had its origins in a public dispensary established in 1830. It moved to the former Commercial Bank building in Spittal Street as the Stirling Royal Infirmary in June 1874. A children's ward and a staff accommodation block were added in 1913.
A new purpose-built facility at Livilands Gate designed by James Miller (1860–1947) was built and officially opened by the Duke and Duchess of York in August 1928. Emergency medical scheme huts were built on the site during the Second World War. It joined the National Health Service in 1948 and subsequent additions included a chest unit and pharmacy in 1955 and a new maternity hospital in 1969.
After many of the services transferred to the Forth Valley Royal Hospital in 2010, the Stirling Royal Infirmary was downgraded to the status of a community hospital. The site has since been redeveloped as the Stirling Health and Care Village.
# Mosque of Omar (Jerusalem)

The Ayyubid Mosque of Omar (Arabic: مسجد عمر بن الخطاب) is an Islamic place of worship inside the Old City of Jerusalem. It is located opposite the southern courtyard of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, in the Muristan area of the Christian Quarter. The mosque is not open to tourists, and can be accessed only for praying.

## History

According to local tradition, after the Siege of Jerusalem in 637 by the Rashidun army under the command of Abu Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah, Patriarch Sophronius refused to surrender except to the Caliph Omar (579-644) himself. Omar travelled to Jerusalem and accepted the surrender. He then approached the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and Patriarch Sophronius invited the Caliph to pray inside the church, but Omar declined so as not to set a precedent and thereby endanger the church's status as a Christian site. Instead he prayed outside, on the steps east of the church. The Mosque of Omar was later built at that site, as evidenced by a stone plate with a Kufic inscription found in 1897 in the area of the eastern or outer atrium of the Constantinian (4th-century) Church of the Holy Sepulchre, defining this area as a mosque.
The current structure was built in its current shape by the Ayyubid Sultan Al-Afdal ibn Salah ad-Din in 1193 to commemorate the prayer of the caliph Omar.

## Architecture

The current structure was built in its current shape by the Ayyubid Sultan Al-Afdal ibn Salah ad-Din in 1193 to commemorate the prayer of the caliph Omar. The entrance to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre had by then moved from the east to the south of the church, as a result of repeated destructive events that affected the Holy Sepulchre and Muslim mosques during the 11th and 12th centuries.
The current building of the mosque has a 15 metres (49 ft) high minaret that was built sometime before 1465 during the Mamluk period, maybe after the 1458 earthquake, and was renovated by Ottoman sultan Abdulmecid I (r. 1839–1860).
The Al-Khanqah al-Salahiyya Mosque, located on the other (northern) side of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, has an almost identical minaret, erected in 1418.

# Dieter Speer

Dieter Speer (born 24 February 1942) is a former East German biathlete.
He was the first German to hold the title when he became world champion in biathlon in 1971, beating the outstanding Alexander Tikhonov over 20 kilometres. Tikhonov could be said to be partly responsible for Speer's success, since the rifle was a gift from Tikhonov.
Speer was able to return the favour a year later at the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo, lending Tikhonov his ski when the latter fell during the relay and broke a ski. In that event, the Russians won, and the East German team only got a bronze medal.
