As they progress to the All-Ireland series both Donegal and USFC 2016 winners Tyrone will be keen to learn from their performance in this year's Ulster Senior Football Championship Final.
Magherafelt Cúchulainns, made up from pupils from Rainey Endowed School, and St Marys Grammar; travelled to London to represent Ulster GAA at the All Britain Competitions.
Tyrone Seniors and Donegal Minors were not the only winners to come away from the Clones sunshine on Ulster Football Championships Finals Day last Sunday.
Patrons at the 2016 Ulster Final got the opportunity to pay tribute to Ulster Final Champions from yesteryear at a sun-soaked St Tiernach's Park on Sunday 17 July.
Tyrone staged an unlikely comeback with three spectacular injury-time points to capture a 14th Ulster SFC title amidst dramatic scenes at Clones.
Supporters travelling to Clones for the Ulster Final are asked to take note of the following important information…
Antrim hurlers finished off a bad year on a positive note with a 15th Ulster successive senior hurling title after a provincial final that was more competitive than had been expected.
Full coverage of the 2016 Ulster Senior Hurling Championship Final between Armagh and Antrim is now available to view on the Ulster GAA Youtube channel.

What You Need To Know About DOTA 2
A DOTA fan reflects on the original's importance in gaming, and on DOTA 2's beta.
The map (or mod, or game, or however you want to classify it) was passed along to different unpaid developers, and has been curated by the long-time anonymous developer "IceFrog" for the last seven years. I have been an active player since 2004, and was hooked with my first game. Playing DOTA with my friends regularly is easily the geekiest thing I've ever done. If someone walks in and you are playing Battlefield or Call of Duty, he or she can understand right away what's going on in the game. But when a friend walks in on me playing DOTA, it's not simple. They hear me shouting at my four friends on Ventrilo things like, "Where's our courier and why didn't anyone call missing on Pudge!? He just came bot with QoP and ganked the s--- out of me!"
I'd say it's a niche game, but it is a very big niche that spreads across the world. At its peak, DOTA was estimated to have over 15 million active players. The appeal is easy for me to see: DOTA includes RPG, competitive, cooperative, strategy, and action elements all within one online multiplayer game that feels different every time you play it. It's also well supported with new content updates released often; these include new heroes, items, and balance changes.
A match features a 5v5 showdown of teamwork, timing, skill, and luck. Each player chooses one of 108 heroes who harbor different strengths, weaknesses, and abilities. All five players/heroes work together to destroy the opposing team's Ancient (essentially, their main base). This is where DOTA really shines, as there's a hero for every play style and always something new and different to try; you can get up close and deal damage with the Faceless Void, but if you'd rather stay back and support your team with spells and auras, you can try the Crystal Maiden.
But DOTA has been in an awkward place these last few years. The Warcraft III engine definitely shows its age, and other developers, having realized the potential of this genre dubbed either ARTS (Action Real Time Strategy) or MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena), have attempted to give the genre some proper treatment. A slew of DOTA clones began to surface: Demigod, Rise of Immortals, Heroes of Newerth, and the one you hear everyone talking about these days: League of Legends (or LOL) from Riot Games.
One of the original contributors to DOTA, Steve "Guinsoo" Feak, actually works with Riot on the League of Legends design team. LOL mimics DotA's formula and attempts some improvements: it eliminates some of the more complicated features, simplifies the types of abilities a hero can have, and doesn't impose such a large penalty for player mistakes. LOL has done a great job making the MOBA/ARTS genre more accessible to everyone, and the numbers prove it: Riot claims to have 11.5 million monthly players. Even an old bitter DOTA veteran like me will recommend LOL to anyone who has never heard of this genre before. But while I've been dabbling with DOTA clones, I also have been waiting for a true sequel.

I'm sure DoTA 2 will have some sort of microtransaction type stuff with skins and w/e else. It's one-upping League of Legends in this matter since you can still at least play everything and not only what is on "rotation" until you buy it with actual money or the "IP" (which generally takes a long time to get 6k+).
Once they release different modes of play (all-random, single-draft, item-drop, etc etc) is where the real fun starts! All-pick is fairly littered with try hards and you'll see a ton of the same team makeups, even in PuG'd games. Other mode types don't feel nearly as serious on the player, and it makes it much more fun. I personally love allrandom because it pressures players to have some sort of knowledge and experience with EVERY hero (over 100!), and that can make for some fun games.
-swap was also something I hope they put in the game. Because even for a seasoned AR player, there are still a couple of heroes that will NEVER gel. If I random Invoker, everyone might as well afk in the fountain because I'll be more then useless lmao.
Beta is great so far, minus the community raging about anything and everything during BETA, and I look forward to it's actual release with the full hero list and hopefully a bunch of new ones. GGGGGG
DotA2Posted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by ZyloWolfBane
Im a Casual MOBA fan, first one I ever played was made by a korean developer called "Darkness and Light" or something to that effect.
Then many years down the line I discovered League of legends,DotA, and HoN which I still play on and off, though I really hate thedecisions LoL makes on nerfing/buffing champions because it tends to make competitive characters suddenly suck just because a section of the fanbase whined enough to get them nerfed.
And by some stroke of luck I myself got a DotA2 beta invite, and as Im playing it I'm immediately drawn in because having also playing the original DotA and Heroes of newerth I already know who most of the clones are and how to play them.
Its also a very great LOOKING game, the shop system functions alot better than other games in the genre and it doesnt go out of its way to be too complicated.
I think its a great entry in the genre, and being on steam it'll be hard for anyone to ignore its presence.
The Genre is Called Aeon of Strife (AoS)Posted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by SovietSpy
As that is the original WCIII Map of that type. If anyone has played WC3 for an extensive amount of time and played more than just the same custom game over and over, then they know that DOTA was the overhyped plague of Battle.net. There were so many better AoS out there, Tides of Blood, Advent of the Zenith, Ninjas in Pyjamas, etc... Dota was popular because kids liked to whore items by farming gold and spam clicking spells based off Storm Bolt, versus requiring any shred of skill.
You jornalists peeking through the outside window need to realize that Dota was the mass media equivelent of Justin Beiber or Call of Duty. It was overly popular and of mediocre quality. It's funny how some random d-bag gets to make his own game, whilist not even creating the original; while the truly deserving & talented mod makers go unoticed. Shame on you Valve. The only company that seemingly hires talented mod makers is Media Molecule.
whoawPosted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by GetNerdeD1
You know that the former developers of DotA gave up and abandoned the project or didn't want to do it anymore for reasons like playing wow instead.
Icefrog made DotA into an e-sport game and made it to what it is today. He should have just as much credit as the original creators if not more. What you are taking about was the start of DotA, DotA is really nothing like what it used to be in the beginning.
Oh Please.Posted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by SovietSpy
Dota sucked back then and it still sure as hell sucked when I played it 1 year ago. Why bother with advanced triggers and JASS to create complex push back spells when you can just change the animation and random variables of Storm Bolt?
Dota is the most overhyped AoS game on Battle.net. Hell even Naruto wars was better and that AoS is shit. Icefrog didn't make it into an e-sport game, the community did. The original creators copied an already existing concept. Neither of them created the concept.
There were far better AoS out there at the time that the typical dota palyer had no idea existed because all they did is click on dota on the Custom Games refresh list. A lot of people played them too until SC2 came out.
heahehaPosted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by GetNerdeD1
I hate the phrase but I have to say it: Haters gonna hate...
DotA is the most successfull custom map ever created, MILLIONS plays it and have played it. Is that only because it's overhyped? No. People enjoy the game, if people didn't enjoy the game at all it wouldn't be a success. What's the point to argue about other games being better.. That _EVERYONE_ clicked on DotA because it was DotA seems retarded to think. You can't make such a statement when you don't know why millions of people played/play DotA.
DotA's huge success can't come from only being overhyped, you must be retarded to think that.
How does DotA suck? please explain. Because you don't like one thing doesn't mean it sucks. Millions would disagree wiith you.
Btw the the genre is ARTS/MOBA/DOTA/AOS etc... There is different names for the same thing. Which one fits the best, I don't really care and the war between them is stupid. But the original AoS is far from what DotA is today, and is not like it at all, so imo it would be wrong to call it an AoS when it only got maybe a very few things in common.
Some things succeeds while others fail. There is probably MILLIONS of ideas/games/cars/mp3 players and so on that never made it and didn't succeed. And so what? why would you discuss and argue about this when it's kind of irrelevant and nothing comes out of it.
I'm loving itPosted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by mr_luga
I'm loving Dota2, it's awesome, and thanks to it's depth it's alot more fun then LoL as well.
Ironcily, Riot's persuit for making it "fun" for everbody is rather shoddy balancing, and a boring experience since everything feels so bland since nothing can really be powerful, since it woudnt be "fun" for the opposing side
PricingPosted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by Bleatmop
It is the pricing that is going to make or break LoL's stranglehold on this genre. If they make it a $60 purchase and successive microtransactions, you can bet this game will be a in the niche market along with HoN and all the other pretenders. If they make it free to play with microtransactions, I'm certain many of the current LoL players will migrate back over to see if it's as good as/better than LoL. Then it will be a battle of what game is actually better to see if they win the day.
The only other thing that will contribute to DOTA2's success is how they support the competative gaming. I understand they put up $1million for their first season in prize money, but Riot quickly eclipsed that number. If Valve can lure some of the more popular teams/players and have them streaming on a regular basis, it should help them win the marketshare war.
DOTA 2Posted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by Vitamin_D
I've been playing DOTA 2 beta for some time now, and before that HoN. HoN is far superior to DOTA 2 in its current condition. DOTA 2 is buggy (although it is in closed beta) and the movement of the characters feels lagged. I love having the original characters back, but it is not as quick or as serious as HoN. I was not fond of LoL. I have high hopes for DOTA 2, but in it's current condition it is not on par with HoN.
hmmPosted: Feb 03, 2012 12:00AM PST by GetNerdeD1
What's buggy about Dota2? I've played over 400 mm games and not found a single bug.. Hon and Dota2 are diffrent games, developed by diffrent companies/developers. Please don't expect it to be like hon, it's not trying to and will not be like hon.
Did you know that there is no other e-sport game in the world that has had as many tournaments in a beta-phase as Dota2? Did hon have any? How many active competitive hon teams is left? I'm 98% sure that there is more active competitive teams in Dota2 atm IN BETA.
I can respect that you prefer hon but your reasoning seems off and weird.
yea...Posted: Feb 05, 2012 12:00AM PST by xWhackoJacko
HoN is trash. Been trash for a while now. You must be one of the what, 20k left that still play it? Good for you if you like it but literally none of that stuff is true about DoTA 2. Shit runs great.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Ashford Picks Up Chicago Sofitel for $153M
Thursday February 27th, 2014 - 9:47AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
CHICAGO—Ashford Hospitality Prime acquired the Sofitel Chicago Water Tower for $153 million, the first luxury-hotel transaction in the Windy City in several years.
Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels & Hospitality Group arranged the sale on behalf of The Blackstone Group.
JLL also secured $80 million of acquisition financing on behalf of the property's new owners.
The sale, at approximately $369,000 per key, represents the largest single-asset hotel transaction in Chicago since 2012, according to JLL.
Managing Director Adam McGaughy and SVP John Nugent led the JLL team on the transaction. EVPs Bill Grice and Keith Largay led the financing effort.
McGaughy stated, "This transaction is reflective of the strong interest from institutional groups seeking high-quality hotel investments in downtown Chicago."
The 32-floor, 415-key hotel is located at 20 East Chestnut St. in the Gold Coast neighborhood. It is one block west of the Magnificent Mile and proximate the city's corporate, convention and leisure markets. Designed by French architect Jean-Paul Viguier, the prism-shaped building features floor-to-ceiling windows and offers views of the skyline and Lake Michigan.

Well, it's halfway through 2016, and not much has changed since the beginning of the year. Despite the terrorism acts in Orlando, FL and Turkey, and the Brexit referendum, little has happened to affect the travel industry. Overall, things might have slowed a bit, but a majority of the fundamentals are holding steady, including occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. I've been asked why this cycle has lasted longer than those preceding it. As far as I am concerned, it's due to a single phrase: Never Again.

For most ladies and a couple of men, a hand bag a great everyday must! We use them to carry our books, our work, our makeup and our electronics and currency.

Dude, they didn't "apply these to something new". They have used the very same test without any modifications and used for the very same reason: to measure / challenge non-verbal creativity. This is a typical example of no-brain stealing. A math homework on an ad is perfect for a high school too, just not creative, not even a bit, that's all.

New Program to Help Veteran's Families Obtain BenefitsState health and Veterans' Affairs officials are teaming up in a new program aimed at helping veterans' families obtain benefits.

Supporting Our Military On CampusUnder the GI Bill, veterans are provided with financial support for education, making college a viable dream.
Coming Home: A Community Gives A Wounded Warrior A New StartCorporal Brian Aft and Buckshot, his bomb-sniffing dog, were in line to jump an irrigation ditch near Kajaki, Afghanistan, an area known for being littered with roadside bombs.

It's very upsetting to me that there seems to be little acknowledgement that there is a Lyme epidemic going on in the US.
Instead, in 2016, we hear about the few cases of Zika virus [update… Zika causes an autoimmune disease! http://scientificamerican.com/article/scientists-find-zika-increases-risk-of-rare-neurological-illness/%5D. And yes, this can and will continue to get worse too, but meanwhile there are millions of cases of Lyme each year. Many will get caught soon enough (typically within a month) to treat successfully with a single 20-or-so day round of antibiotics. But many won't. Here in Massachusetts, I personally know probably 10 people who have had Lyme and treated OK, and another 3 who are having ongoing long-term effects and still under treatment.
Some other comments:
1. The IDSA (from 2006!) guidelines probably need updating.
2. It's been my experience that most people who have gotten to the bottom of their Lyme has been a result of SELF DIAGNOSIS. Doctors for the most part are misdiagnosing Lyme, which is shameful.
3. I am assuming it's a combination of 1) healthcare professionals (doctors, dentists) not knowing 2) concern for antibiotic overuse 3) insurance companies concerned about costly treatments for people with chronic lyme (or "post-lyme disease syndrome")
4. There is also a huge explosion in autoimmune diseases in the last 20+ years. Many of these are difficult to diagnose vs Lyme. In many cases, a differential diagnosis is VERY difficult to make and you can find Pubmed articles discussing the fact that many cases of Lupus, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, etc. are actually Lyme.
5. At some level, it doesn't really matter — both Lyme AND autoimmune diseases are 1) not well understood, 2) no easy treatment, 3) underdiagnosed.
"1,500,000 fresh infected Borrelia patients each year in Germany."
CDC increased the number of annual diagnoses by ten fold, from 30-thousand to 300-thousand. (and this is probably very low as well)
New front in the Lyme wars
"The American Autoimmune Related Diseases Association (AARDA) estimates that as many as fifty million Americans suffer from autoimmunity, which makes it one of the most prevalent categories of disease, ahead of cancer. It is a leading cause of illness in young women. (Three-quarters of autoimmune patients are women.) "

Did you know?
Not an unusual event, now just a regular occurrence:
"The city of Miami Beach floods on such a predictable basis that if, out of curiosity or sheer perversity, a person wants to she can plan a visit to coincide with an inundation…. Knowing the tides would be high around the time of the "super blood moon," in late September, I arranged to meet up with Hal Wanless, the chairman of the University of Miami's geological-sciences department. …Water gushed down the road and into an underground garage. We stopped in front of a four-story apartment building, which was surrounded by a groomed lawn. Water seemed to be bubbling out of the turf."
and generally…
"Seas Are Rising at Fastest Rate in Last 28 Centuries"
Good luck to us!

"Why school subjects ever came to be standardized I cannot guess. Why history and not botany? Geography and not geology? Maths and not civics? I think the lesson may lie in the words of the old public-school headmaster: 'It doesn't matter what you teach a boy so long as he dislikes it.' — A.S. Neill from p104 of Summerhill School: A New View of Childhood
"All that any child needs is the three Rs; the rest should be tools and clay and sports and theatre and paint and freedom. … I am not decrying learning. But learning should only come after play. And learning should not be deliberately seasoned with play to make it palatable." p102
"Creators learn what they want to learn in order to have the tools that their originality and genius demand. We do not know how much creation is killed in the classroom with its emphasis on learning." p108
Summerhill School: A New View of Childhood by A. S. Neill
SEE ALSO: Guest Post by Jess
"…I'd just like to point out that the subjects that are chosen are, well, chosen…why biology and not botany, why algebra and not agriculture…"
"Woohoo! Yeah!" (yelled at the top of his lungs)
This is my (newly) 8-year-old son's reaction to his realization that tomorrow is Monday and there is school (Sudbury Valley School).
What joy this joy brings to his dad's heart!
Not that he is always this totally pumped for school… he's a home-body kinda kid, so "transition-time" can be difficult for him even, but he's never particularly fussed once he gets in the mood and gathers his gear and projects he's working on. And there's never really been "Sunday-night-blues" (in anticipation of the coming week) to speak of with either of our kids.
But turning 8 means a few new "big kid" privileges and responsibilities at school, and he is excited and ready for them!
"I am not interested in blaming students, or parents, or teachers, or anyone else. I am interested in understanding what is happening, and why, and what we as individuals and as a society can do to improve the situation."
Peter Gray
Our family loves SVS, but I am not sure I buy the argument that there are (FOR SURE) a higher percentage of graduates who are entrepreneurs than there are at other schools.
At least not BECAUSE OF Sudbury Valley. Well, maybe. But… here's what I think:
1. Many students who attend SVS or other Sudbury schools probably are correlated with types of people who go on to be entrepreneurs. So it's not SVS… it's the people.
2. Also, many of the parents who choose to have their young kids attend SVS even before they have an inkling of their personalities, but rather based on the ideals of the school only (like my wife and I who knew we wanted SVS for our kids even before it existed) are probably also skewed toward entrepreneurial dispositions, so their kids inherit some of that.
I say "probably" in 1 and 2 above, but who knows. Switch that with "maybe" if you wish. Point is, we don't know.
If you look at Table 14.7 on page 241 of "Legacy of Trust: Life After The Sudbury Valley School Experience", 7 of 27 of the "SVS ONLY" category are classified as "Entrepreneurial Occupations (Any Category)". That's 26%. That's probably still high (no way are 26% of the population entrepreneurs**…), but is it high among kids whose parents who are similarly entrepreneurial and able to afford private school but attend other schools? (SVS is very inexpensive as private schools go… ~$8,000, but not free).
Anyway, I guess my point is that this is an unknown as far as I am concerned, but this doesn't concern me. What I *do* care is that my kids ARE FREE. AND HAPPY. RIGHT NOW. At ages 4-18. Not waiting for age 18.
So for me, SVS has some huge "every day, right now" positives, which will also certainly pay benefits for my kids in later happiness as well. And sure, it might have some "some day in the future, maybe" negatives. But for me the positives FAR outweigh any potential negatives, especially because they are completely uncertain.
– Hal Sadofsky — Sudbury vs traditional school — the risky choice
**NOTE: I am also not sure what the definition anyone is using of entrepreneur. To me it's not simply being self-employed. It has to (for me) include a business venture where one is taking on more risk with most of the work being delegated to employees and such.) See discussion: LINK

The polls lately have been terrible at predicting actual election results and last Saturday was the perfect example.
In Louisiana, Trump was supposed to dominate the state by winning over 15 points. Instead, he won by less than four (click to enlarge):
There was only one poll for Kentucky, but it also suggested that Trump would dominate there as well. He won by just over 4 points (click to enlarge):
And lastly, Trump was expected to win Kansas by at least 6 points, maybe more. But it was a bloodbath with Cruz winning by almost 25 points (click to enlarge):
There was no current polling on Maine but conventional wisdom probably saw Trump or Kasich winning the state. Cruz dominated there as well with at least a 13 point victory.
So when you see one poll saying Trump is winning Idaho by 11 points or another poll saying Trump will win Mississippi by over 20 points, don't fret. The winds appear to be shifting towards Cruz as we saw last Saturday and if this shift is for real, we'll know it tonight.

President Barack Obama says he is making his historic visit to Myanmar to ''extend the hand of friendship'' to a nation that is moving from persecution to peace.
But he says the country's democratic transition has just begun and must not be allowed to slide.
Obama was on his way from Thailand to Myanmar, also known as Burma, on Monday morning local time.
The White House released excerpts of a speech he was giving later in the day to university students. Obama is the first US president to visit the country.
He says that in the last year and a half, Myanmar has loosened the grip of dictatorship, freed hundreds of political prisoners and ushered in a civilian government.
Obama said such ''flickers of progress'' must not be extinguished.
Southeast Asian leaders will put pressure on Myanmar to resolve violence between Buddhists and minority Muslims, a senior regional official said on Sunday, after unrest left scores dead and as many as 100,000 people displaced since June.
Southeast Asian leaders will put pressure on Myanmar to resolve violence between Buddhists and minority Muslims, a senior regional official said on Sunday, after unrest left scores dead and as many as 100,000 people displaced since June.
Myanmar President Thein Sein has blamed nationalist and religious extremists for unrest in June and October that killed at least 167 people, but has faced criticism for failing to address underlying tensions in Rakhine State, where an estimated 800,000 Rohingya Muslims are not recognised as citizens.
"Eight hundred thousand people are now under tremendous pressure," Surin Pitsuwan, secretary-general of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), told reporters on the sidelines of a regional summit in the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh.
"If that issue is not handled well and effectively, there is a risk of radicalisation, there is a risk of extremism," he said.
Surin said he expected ASEAN leaders to raise the issue with Myanmar, which is a member of the bloc, during bilateral talks. The leaders were committed to reducing internal conflicts as the group moves towards economic integration by 2015, he said.
After a week of violence in June killed at least 80 people in two townships, unrest in late October spread across much of the state. Witnesses said mobs of ethnic Rakhine Buddhists attacked Muslim villages with petrol bombs, swords and guns.
Nearly 4700 homes were destroyed in 42 villages, according to government data compiled by UN agencies.
A Reuters investigation painted a troubling picture of organised attacks led by Rakhine nationalists tied to a powerful political party in the state, incited by Buddhist monks and, some witnesses said, abetted by local security forces.
More than 97 per cent of the 36,394 people who fled the latest violence are Muslims, according to official statistics. Many now live in camps, joining 75,000 mostly Rohingya displaced in June. Others have set sail for Bangladesh, Thailand and Malaysia on rickety boats, two of which are reported to have gone down with as many as 150 people on board.
US President Barack Obama is expected to raise the issue of ethnic tensions on Monday, when he travels to Myanmar and meets Thein Sein. Obama will be the first sitting U.S. president to visit Myanmar, also known as Burma.
Obama arrived in neighbouring Thailand on Sunday.
"In addition to the democratic reforms, we've been concerned about the continued ethnic conflicts in Burma," Ben Rhodes, deputy national security adviser, told reporters accompanying Obama aboard Air Force One.
"I think the president will be underscoring that national reconciliation is also going to be a part of Burma's democratic transition," he said.
The United Nations said on Friday Thein Sein had sent a letter to Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon promising action to tackle the problems.
In a statement, Ban's office said Thein Sein had promised that "once emotions subside on all sides", his government was prepared to "address contentious political dimensions, ranging from resettlement of displaced populations to granting of citizenship".
It would also look at "issues of birth registration, work permits and permits for movement across the country for all, in line with a uniform national practice across the country ensuring that they are in keeping with accepted international norms". Many Rohingyas are subject to travel and work restrictions.
Rohingyas have lived for generations in Rakhine State, but Rakhines and other Burmese view them as illegal immigrants from neighbouring Bangladesh who deserve neither rights nor sympathy.
Rakhines reject the term "Rohingya" as a modern invention, referring to them instead as "Bengali" or "kalar", a pejorative word for people of South Asian descent.
Many arrived as labourers from Bangladesh under British rule in the 19th century - grounds the government now uses to deny them citizenship. Rohingya were effectively rendered stateless under a 1982 Citizenship Law, which excluded them from a list of indigenous ethnic groups.
Asean groups Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

Zelda Williams Remembers Dad Robin Williams On His 65th Birthday
Zelda paid tribute to her late father, Robin Williams, with a touching post on Instagram.
Zelda paid tribute to her late father, Robin Williams, with a touching post on Instagram.
You really have no idea how loved a movie is until a studio announces plans to reboot it — such is the case with Jumanji, the 1995 film starring Robin Williams, which performed pretty well at the box office but didn't leave a big impression on critics and (adult) audiences. But reactions to Dwayne Johnson's new Jumanji movie offer a valuable lesson in the power of nostalgia, as fans have been quick to cry foul on the reboot. Johnson has heard you, and not only is he committed to making the best reboot possible, but he's also found a "cool" way to honor the memory of Robin Williams.
Adventurers beware: A 'Jumanji' remake is in the works...
It was 1982. Comedian Robin Williams was at the Paramount Theatre for a performance. Someone from the crowd asked Williams how he liked Cedar Rapids...
Hollywood continues to insist on remaking classic movies that don't need remakes.
On the one-year anniversary of his death, we're celebrating Robin Williams' life and career by revisiting his 10 best movie scenes.
'Boulevard' sees the late Williams playing a man struggling with a deep secret.
The world lost a comedy legend last year when Robin Williams died. One man, though, is doing his part to keep the Oscar winner's legacy going strong.
For the first time since Robin Williams' tragic death, his daughter Zelda is opening up about the loss -- and life -- of her father in a powerful interview.
For many viewers, the Oscars are are chance to snark and make fun of everything that happens on stage (and can you blame 'em?). But then the "In Memoriam" segment comes around and reduces even the most cynical person to puddle of bubbling tears. The 2015 Oscars "In Memoriam" is no different, offering a whirlwind tour through a year's worth of beloved people who passed away. Get ready ... it's about to get a little dusty in here.
