Lucas Radebe
Lucas Valeriu Ntuba Radebe OIS (born 12 April 1969) is a South African former professional footballer. He began playing in South Africa with Kaizer Chiefs, before transferring to Leeds United, where he played 256 matches for the Yorkshire side. During his spells at these clubs, he picked up the nicknames "Rhoo" and "The Chief". He became captain of Leeds United and also of the South African national team, most notably at World Cup 2002. Nelson Mandela said of Radebe: "This is my hero." He also captained Kaizer Chiefs during his time at Chiefs. He played as a centre back. Thebe Mabanga, a Mail & Guardian journalist, wrote that South African fans remember Radebe in his Kaizer Chiefs days as "a lanky, flamboyant central midfielder who switched to central defence with ease, snuffing out any opposition threat with exquisite, acrobatic scissor kicks and diving headers, and man-marking the most lethal strikers into silence". Considered as one of the best South Africa's centre-backs of all time.
Rantasalmi
Rantasalmi is a municipality in Southern Savonia, Finland. As of January 2014, almost 3,900 people lived there. Neighbouring municipalities are Joroinen, Juva, Savonlinna, Sulkava and Varkaus.
Lucas Radebe
Club career
In 1989 Lucas Radebe signed a contract with Kaizer Chiefs. Instead of the goalkeeper position, he came here to play as a midfielder. He would later be dragged back one line, taking on the role of central defender. He would continue to do this for the rest of his career. He soon became a permanent fixture at the club.
Rantasalmi
Rantasalmi was established in 1578.
Lucas Radebe
Club career
Lucas Radebe achieved many successes with Kaizer Chiefs. For example, because of his good game, he was called up for the first time in 1992 to be part of the national selection of South Africa and also made his debut that year. He also became champion of South Africa twice with Kaizer Chiefs, in 1991 and 1992. He also won the BP Top 8 three times., now called MTN 8. This is a kind of supercup, in which the eight best performing teams of the past season participate.
In his own words, it was because of his good game that he was shot in 1991. He claims that the perpetrator was the fact that Lucas Radebe could not switch clubs. Despite not being seriously injured, he was out for a while. Partly because of the shooting incident, Lucas Radebe decided to leave South Africa in 1994 and sign a contract with a European club. In total, he played 113 games for Kaizer Chiefs. In it he was able to score five times.
In 1994 Lucas Radebe signed a contract with the English sub-topper Leeds United . The club paid a transfer fee of £250,000 to Kaizer Chiefs to bring Radebe to England. That season, fellow countryman of Radebe, Phil Masinga, was also bought by Leeds. However, he did not come from Kaizer Chiefs, but from Mamelodi Sundowns. The South African duo's first season with the club was an immediate success with a fifth place, which gave the right to European football. However, Radebe only played twelve games that season. It took until the 1996–97 season before Radebe actually got a permanent base place.
In the end, Lucas Radebe was named captain of the club. He was also nicknamed "The Chief", partly because of his previous club and partly because of his leadership qualities. Five years in a row, from 1998 to 2002, Radebe finished in the top five of the Premier League with Leeds United. In the 2001–02 season, it even took first place in the English league for the first half of the season. These good performances allowed Leeds to participate in both the UEFA Cup and even the Champions League. In the latter continental cup tournament, Lucas Radebe reached the semi-finals with Leeds United in 2001. In it was lost to Valencia CF. The previous year had already reached the UEFA Cup semi-final, in which Leeds United lost to eventual winners Galatasaray SK .
From the season Lucas Radebe experienced the decline of Leeds United. That season started well and Leeds was third for a long time. In November, however, the club dropped to sixteenth place. Ultimately, Leeds United finished 15th that season, narrowly avoiding relegation. The poor performances were partly due to the departures of top players Olivier Dacourt, Rio Ferdinand, Robbie Fowler, Robbie Keane and Jonathan Woodgate. The fact that these players had to leave the club was due to a financial crisis that Leeds United had to contend with. However, the following season, 2003/2004, was disastrous. Then Lucas Radebe relegated along with Leeds to the Football League Championship by finishing 19th in the Premier League.
In his last season with the club, 2004–05, Lucas Radebe failed to bring Leeds United an immediate promotion back to the Premier League. The club finished in a disappointing fourteenth place in the second highest league in England. Due to his advanced age and poor performance with Leeds, Radebe decided to end his career that season. Leeds United played a total of 200 league matches. However, he never managed to score.
International career
On July 7, 1992, Lucas Radebe was allowed to play his first international match for South Africa. This was in a match against Cameroon. He won the 1996 African Cup of Nations with South Africa. It was the first time that South Africa won this cup. In the final, played in Johannesburg, Tunisia was beaten 2-0 by two goals from eventual top scorer of the tournament Mark Williams.
Personal life
After Radebe decided to retire from football, he played a farewell game on 2 May 2005 at Leeds United's home stadium, Elland Road. Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Mario Melchiot, Clyde Wijnhard, Erik Bakke and Phil Masinga played in this match. In addition, he also played a farewell match in Durban, South Africa. The proceeds of both games plus extra money raised went to charity.
Originally, Radebe was going to help South Africa with the 2010 World Cup, which will be held in that country. In 2006, however, he withdrew because he was not offered a job and no longer expected it. He also no longer accepted a ceremonial position.
Graeme Friedman wrote a book about Radebe and his compatriot and football player Mark Fish. The book is titled "Madiba's Boys The Stories of Lucas Radebe and Mark Fish". The foreword was written by the former President of South Africa, Nelson Mandela. Radebe and Mandela have a friendly relationship anyway. When Mandela once visited Leeds, he called Radebe his hero.
The British band Kaiser Chiefs says they named themselves after Lucas Radebe's old football club, Kaizer Chiefs. All members of the group are fans of Leeds United and have been able to enjoy Lucas Radebe's game there for eleven seasons. According to the members, Radebe had a great influence on them during their childhood.
In 2004 he was awarded 54th place on the list of the Greatest South African of all time. This was not only because of his good football, but also because of his commitment to charities. He is an ambassador for SOS Children's Villages.

Ealdorman
An ealdorman (from Old English ealdorman, lit. "elder man"; plural: "ealdormen") is a term used for a high-ranking royal official who was in charge of one or more shires. The title dates from the sixth century and was in use up to the time of King Canute. Their position was a combination of administrator, judge and military commander. Ealdormen were the predecessors of the later English earls.
Office
The king appointed an ealdorman to govern one or more shires or territories. The ealdorman was also responsible for leading his local fyrd (part-time army) in battle. But these armies owed their first allegiance to their ealdorman. Very often the support of one or more ealdormen could help a royal candidate to become king. In many cases ealdormen succeeded underkings yet kept the same rights. Several had been underkings and were members of the royal family. In early Anglo-Saxon documents ealdormen are also termed dux, princeps, or comitis in documents of the time.
History
The term first appears in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle under the year 568. But it was probably used long before then. As early as the seventh century ealdormen were seen as judges. But the development of the shire may have come later. As ealdormanries began to become hereditary (passed down from father to son) the families who held them became more and more powerful. Several rose in power second only to the king. They were described in documents by the term patricius. In the eighth century these occurred in Northumbria, Mercia and Kent. The term patricius was roughly the same as the office of mayor of the palace in the Merovingian dynasty of Frankish kings. This could be dangerous for a king to have someone so powerful exercising power in his name. In the eighth and ninth centuries the most dangerous ealdormen were those who claimed royal descent. They could and in some cases did rise up against a king and took the throne themselves. In the very basic royal administrations of the time a king needed to depend on his ealdormen. A king could create ealdormen from his own family. But he could only fill only a portion of the ealdormanries in that way. As the families of ealdormen banded together in ties of mutual support it became more difficult to remove an ealdorman.
Earl
The term ealdorman was replaced by the term earl during the eleventh century. In the laws of King Canute both ealdormen and earls are mentioned. But there was no distinction made between them. After the Norman conquest of England in 1066, the title Earl was no longer interchangeable with dux or princeps. They were written at times as comes (count). King William replaced most Anglo-Saxon earls with his own appointees. He then limited the power of most earls giving them control of counties, castles or other territories. A few were given more power. These were titled Earl palatine.

UNIX
UNIX is a computer operating system. It was first developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, Douglas McIlroy, and others created it. They used assembly language to write it. In 1972, the Unix code was rewritten with the new C programming language. The Unix operating system is a multiuser and multiprocessing system. This means it can run several application programs at the same time, for more than one user at the same time. It also is able to operate well in a network of computers. Computer security is also important in Unix, because many people can have access to it, both by using a computer directly or over a network.
Many ideas in Unix were new. Other operating systems copied them. Today, there are many operating systems that have some of the ideas of Unix in them. For this reason, some people talk about a "Unix philosophy" of doing things. Linux is one of these systems with many of the Unix ideas in it. Linux does not use code from UNIX. Linux only shares some of the ideas and the names of commands. So, Linux is not a UNIX operating system. Instead it is called "Unix-like".
There can be many different users in a Unix and Unix-like operating system. Most of them have a personal area where they can put things. This is called a user account.
One way of using a Unix system is with the command line interface. Users run commands and programs by typing text characters. This takes time to learn, but it is a very powerful and flexible way of working. It is still used by most Unix administrators. These commands are run in a shell, which can change slightly between one system and another.
A graphical user interface (GUI) is the other method. The X Window System is a very common GUI for Unix systems. The X Window System is only a shell of a graphical interface. It has many protocols. The X Window System itself does not let the user to move and resize windows. Users need a window manager or desktop manager to do that.
Some of the popular desktop and window managers are:
Like most other graphical user interfaces, they use windows, dialog boxes, support the use of a computer mouse, and are designed to be easy to use.
There are many thousands of programs available for the X Window System. Programs like word processors and spreadsheets are available including free and open-source software.
Two types of Unix
Today, there are two kinds of operating systems that are like UNIX.
The first group is all those that share some kernel code with the original from Bell Labs at AT&T. This includes the commercial UNIX types: Solaris or AIX.
The second group includes free operating systems that usually have BSD in their name, like FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD. These are based on free BSD. Mac OS X is also based on BSD.
There are also free systems based on the Linux kernel. These do not share any code with the original UNIX. BSD systems share very little code with the original Unix because much of the code has been rewritten over many years. Many people use the terms Unix and Unix-like systems to be clear.
Most applications can run on any modern Unix or Unix-like system. KDE and GNOME were developed for Linux and later changed to run on commercial types of Unix.

Rifling
Rifling consists of spiral grooves cut into the inside of a barrel of a gun. It causes the bullet or projectile to spin as it flies through the air. This greatly improves the accuracy of the bullet over longer distances. The first muskets to use this technology were called rifles. Barrels are rifled using a left or right twist. The number of turns per inch is called the "twist rate". These are expressed as a ratio. For example, a 1:7 twist means the bullet will turn once for each seven inches of barrel length. As a general rule, the heavier the bullet, the higher the twist rate.
