Most recents (11)

I did @BBCRadio4 's Prayer for the Day all of this week (bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/b…)
The six themes and links follow in this thread:
9th July: Hajj & Eid Al'Adha
"If acts of worship are like external manifestations of internal Grace, then the rituals of Hajj are saying: everyone comes to God equal, only the content of our hearts is relevant to The One." #EidAlAdha

11th July: Football and Finding Balance
"Islam calls for us to be balanced, centred, and to fully do that, we have to accept both good and bad, highs and lows... I don’t believe one can know one side without also knowing the other. " #Wembley

"Chi no xe omo resti sul pullman"
#Milanbenfica 22 maggio 1963.
Finale di #coppacampioni.
Il paron #Rocco disse questo alla squadra all arrivo a #wembley.
Scesero tutti i calciatori ma dopo qualche metro si voltarono,non c'era Rocco,rimasto sul pullman!
Il #paron era questo👇
Arrivò nell'estate 61 a #Milano ma non furono rose e fiori.
Voluto da gipo #Viani ma accolto con freddezza dal presidente #Rizzoli.
Voleva qualcuno con più stile alla guida del #Milan.
#Rocco applicava il catenaccio,un evoluzione del sistema svizzero denominato "#verrou"
Praticamente,un terzino marcatore in più.
Questo sistema fece la fortuna del #Padova dei "poareti" che lui rese grande.
Le frizioni iniziarono quasi subito.
Era appena arrivato anche #Rivera ma il #paron lo riteneva troppo gracilino e chiese di mandarlo a farsi le ossa.

1/ #PrimeMinister & #HealthSecretary,

I just want to clarify how I can keep myself & my family safe from the #COVID19 surge in cases in our area?

I live & work in Newcastle, where cases are now well > 800 per 100,000, a real #COVIDHotSpot!

@BorisJohnson @sajidjavid
2/ How do you suggest advice to “proceed with caution” & “remain vigilant” will stop my #NHS colleagues & I from succumbing to #COVID19 as frontline HCWs regularly exposed to #coronavirus, now that 😷s are OPTIONAL in many places & virtually all restrictions will end in 7/7?
3/ Which exact bit of your roadmap/unlocking is still “following the science”?

The science that quite clearly says the best way to protect both health AND the economy PLUS prevent new #covidvariants arising is to KEEP COMMUNITY TRANSMISSION & CASES LOW?

Reflections on last night: #eng #racism

We did an incredible job getting to the final, scenes not seen for a generation. A diverse team championing what England aspires to be, a progressive collective moving toward a shared goal. Each earning more than their keep.
I applaud each of them, but special mention must go to @BukayoSaka87 , @MarcusRashford, and @Sanchooo10 who have not only represented a community of people under duress from common people and elites alike, but shown that ascendence to greatness is individual.
Reading the words of @GarethSouthgate from earlier this year, it is clear that the @England team is very much forward-thinking in tackling #racism and he, himself, a great and empathetic leader, is forthright in tackling, against potential anger, this great cause.

#ItsComingHome. Piccola digressione calcistica. Non ci sono dubbi che il calcio sia nato nelle isole Britanniche nel XIX secolo, soprattutto nel Nord dell'Inghilterra ed in particolare tra membri della working class. 1/

L'influenza inglese d'altronde si è sentita anche nello sviluppo del calcio in Italia. Come scritto nel libro "Calcio" di @Footymac il primo club italiano fu il Genoa Cricket (!!) and Football Club, creato nel 1893 da personale consolare inglese e non aperto agli italiani. 2/
E fino al 1909 la FIGC era in realtà la Federazione Italiana Football. Nessuno discute dunque l'importanza dell'Inghilterra nella creazione e sviluppo del calcio. Basta per definirla "home"/casa? It's the place where you come from, but is it the place where you belong? 3/

In occasione del primo sabato sera a #Wembley della storia della Nazionale italiana, un thread che rende omaggio a chi l'aveva immaginato già 45 anni fa: Paolo Villaggio e Luciano Salce, in una delle sequenze più rappresentative dell'italiano medio.
Per colpa del "Secondo Tragico Fantozzi" (1976) una pietra miliare del cinema come "La Corazzata Potëmkin" (1926) di Sergej Ejzenstein ha ingiusta nomea di mattone infinito: in realtà dura appena 75 minuti (altro che "diciotto bobine!").
Ad ogni modo, per quel sabato sera Fantozzi aveva ben altri programmi. Notate anche la citazione esplicita della birra Peroni, molto più onesta delle tante pubblicità occulte disseminate spudoratamente nei film anni '70 e '80.

Τον τελικό του #Wembley τον είχα παρακολουθήσει ως παιδάκι στην ασπρόμαυρη τηλεόραση του Κολλεγίου Αθηνών, όπου ήμουν εσωτερικός υπότροφος και θυμάμαι την ατελείωτη περηφάνια μας. @NLinGreece @StellaRonner
Είναι μεγάλη μου χαρά που συναντώ πάλι τον Αριστείδη Καμάρα. Χωρίς αυτόν δεν θα είχαμε πάει ποτέ στο #Wembley. Με γκολ του στο Βελιγράδι είχαμε μειώσει στο 3-1 και με γκολ του φτάσαμε στο 3-0 στη Λ. Αλεξάνδρας για να προκριθούμε στον μεγάλο τελικό. @NLinGreece @StellaRonner
Ευχαριστούμε την Πρέσβη της Ολλανδίας @StellaRonner για αυτή την εκδήλωση, αλλά κυρίως για την παρουσία της στην Ελλάδα και τη συνεισφορά της στις ελληνο-ολλανδικές σχέσεις. @NLinGreece

#Hilo🧵Hoy se conmemora el #DiaMundialDelRock y la celebración fue instaurada en recuerdo al proyecto #LiveAid que el 13 de julio de 1985 recaudó millones de dólares para ayudar a los afectados por la hambruna en Etiopía y aquí recordamos los conciertos que hermanaron al mundo.👇 Image
🤘🎶 Bob Geldof, líder de los 'Boomtown Rats' y protagonista de la película ‘The Wall’, a finales de 1984 lanzó 'Band Aid', un grupo con la mayor parte de las estrellas del rock inglés, y en noviembre grabaron la canción 'Do they know it’s Christmas?'.
🗓️💵 Ante el éxito de la iniciativa, Geldof se propuso organizar un par de conciertos, uno en Londres y otro en Filadelfia, para recaudar más dinero y la fecha fue el 13 de julio de 1985. Image
