The 2011 Rugby Football League Championship is known as Co-operative Championship due to sponsorship by The Co-operative Group.

The 2011 Co-operative Championship is a semi-professional rugby league football competition played in the UK and France one tier below the first tier Super League. The two worst performing teams during the season, with the exception of Toulouse Olympique, will be relegated to Championship 1.

There is no automatic promotion from this league to Super League, which uses a licensing system renewed every three years. Qualifying for the Grand Final or winning the Northern Rail Cup is a prerequisite for Championship clubs to be able to apply for a licence in the next round of applications for the 2012–14 period.

All of the teams in the 2011 Co-operative Championship will also compete in the 2011 Challenge Cup where they will enter in the third round. All of the teams will also compete in the 2011 National League Cup which starts before the Co-operative Championship with the finals held mid season.

Teams

This competition features mostly the same teams as it did in 2010. The Hunslet Hawks and York City Knights were promoted from the 2010 Championship 1 while the Keighley Cougars and Whitehaven were relegated.

Tranceport is a trance music DJ mix album series. The series debuted in November 1998 with Paul Oakenfold's Tranceport, released on Kinetic Records. The album featured many trance songs that were receiving a lot of dance club play at the time, including Three Drives on a Vinyl's Greece 2000 and the Paul van Dyk remix of Binary Finary's popular 1998.  Tranceport is widely regarded among electronic music listeners as one of the best trance albums ever released.

The later releases in the series were based on this template. DJs featured in this series included Dave Ralph and Quivver (Tranceport 2 and Transport 5, respectively). After Vol. 3, the series changed its name to Transport to better reflect the evolving popular club sounds and the incorporation of genres other than trance. There were 6 albums in the series, spanning 4 years. In 2003, the most popular trance started changing its sound from the tech-trance featured in the series to a much more epic sound being pushed by DJs like Armin van Buuren, thus lessening the series' popularity; it ended for good after Kinetic's demise in early 2004.

Cynosura or Kynosoura () was a settlement that existed before the Dorian conquest. It was united with three other such settlements (Pitane, Limnae, and Mesoa) by a common sacrifice to Artemis, and eventually coalesced into ancient Sparta. It is probable that Cynosura was in the southwest part of the city.

Its site is unlocated.

John Longenecker (born 1947) is an American film producer, Directors Guild of America member, screenwriter and cinematographer who produced the Academy Award-winning live-action short film The Resurrection of Broncho Billy (1970).

Biography
John Longenecker grew up in Southern California. His mother, MGM film actress Ruth Hussey (1911–2005), was Oscar-nominated for her portrayal of Liz Imbrie, the cynical magazine photographer in The Philadelphia Story (1940). His father, C. Robert Bob Longenecker (1909–2002) worked as a producer at CBS Radio Network in Los Angeles and later established a motion picture and television talent agency.

Academy Award – Live Action Short Film
In 1967 Longenecker attended the UCLA Film School. In 1968 he enrolled in film production classes at the University of Southern California – USC Cinema Department. He produced The Resurrection of Broncho Billy (1970) at USC Cinema. For his film crew Longnecker invited now-noted film directors Nick Castle and John Carpenter to work with him on the senior year project. The unusual spelling "Broncho" in the short's title was an homage to Broncho Billy Anderson, considered filmdom's first cowboy star.

Castle was the cinematographer for the short, Carpenter was the film editor and composed the music for the picture, and James Rokos directed the short film. All four of the filmmakers along with Trace Johnston made creative contributions to the story for the film. Produced on a $700 budget ($5,000 in 2013 dollars), The Resurrection of Broncho Billy received the 1970 Academy Award for best live action short film. At 23, Longenecker was the youngest producer in history to have a film win an Oscar.

Johnny Crawford and Kristin Nelson played the lead roles in the movie short, a 20-minute film about a young guy who lives in a big city in the present-day but fantasizes about living in the old west. Universal Studios theatrically released the film for two years in the United States and Canada.

In 1971 Longenecker produced and hosted an hour-long program, Student Film Festival: Take One, which was broadcast on KTLA and featured screenings of ten short films chosen from Universal Studios' Student Film Library, including a portion of The Resurrection of Broncho Billy.

Director/Cinematographer Work
John Longenecker has often worked as a cinematographer for music video director/recording artist Dwight Yoakam, and as a second unit cinematographer on television commercials for director Errol Morris. Longenecker encourages young filmmakers to shoot videos through his Picture America project started-up in 2008.

Eduardo Brito National Theater () is part of the Plaza de la Cultura (Culture Plaza) complex, located in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The theatre opened on August 16, 1973 and is the centerpiece of the complex. It is surrounded by several museums and cultural institutions. The complex is located on the Avenida Máximo Gomez, a central artery of the city of Santo Domingo. In 1977, it hosted the Miss Universe pageant. In 2006, the theatre was named after Eduardo Brito, a famous Dominican opera singer, by presidential decree.

The theatre was designed by Dominican architect Teófilo Carbonell and it was opened on August 16, 1973. The theatre's main hall, Sala Carlos Piantini, is named after the Dominican violinist and conductor who was the theatre's first musical director. The hall seats 1,600 spectators. The 24 by 25 meters stage can easily accommodate 250 people, while the orchestra can seat 120 musicians. Another hall, Sala Ravelo, is named after a Dominican musician and can seat 189 spectators. This secondary hall is dedicated exclusively to theatrical productions.

The theatre's facade is articulated by classic arches made of travertine marble. The building has four levels that, in addition to the two main halls, house the administrative offices, a reception hall, the Sala de la Cultura (Culture Hall) and a bar. The Sala de la Cultura, with a capacity of 220 spectators, was created for piano concerts, chamber concerts, symposia, seminars, and cultural events of similar scale.

Other institutions located within the building are the Biblioteca del Teatro (Theatre's Library), which was funded by Cuban artist Teresita Jimenez and the French embassy, and the Centro de Recuperación, Conservación y Difusión de la Música Dominicana (Center for Recovery, Preservation and Dissemination of Dominican Music), which stores historical information related to Dominican music.

Muhammad "Abu Maher" Ghneim (, b. 1937) is a Palestinian politician and a senior Fatah official, being a member of the organization's central committee.

Biography
Ghneim was born in Jerusalem in 1937 and was involved in trade union activism in his youth. Along with thousands of other Palestinians, he was expelled from the city during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. Ghneim became involved in Palestinian politics, becoming a founding member of Fatah in 1957. He also participated in the founding of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) in 1964. For much of this period, he fought against Israel alongside Yasser Arafat in Lebanon. Receiving military training from the People's Republic of China, Ghneim became a commander of Fatah's official armed wing al-Assifa ("the Storm"). Following the PLO's departure from Lebanon in the early 1980s, Ghneim moved to Tunisia with much of the Palestinian leadership.

Ghneim opposed the 1993 Oslo Peace Accords signed by Arafat, and refused to return to the Palestine until all of its territory was "liberated," i.e. including modern-day Israel. He had remained in exile in Tunisia, but returned to the West Bank on July 29, 2009 to attend the Fatah General Conference in Bethlehem. Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas reportedly convinced Israeli authorities to allow Ghneim to enter the Palestinian territories and permanently live there. He was greeted by Abbas and hundreds of Fatah activists in Ramallah. His return signified a change in Fatah politics, with Ghneim bolstering Abbas's position against rival Fatah leader Farouk Qaddoumi who remains in exile. After his return, he acquired a role as one of Abbas' deputies.
