Sheet Pan Supper – Chicken and vegetables roasted all together on one pan for a super easy dinner with minimal cleanup. Meals like this are a lifesaver during hectic evenings when you need to get dinner on the table without a lot of effort.
Also known as "clean out the fridge dinners" around here. You know how it goes, you're running around trying to get everything done, making sure you have clean clothes, the dog is staring at you like "Um, hello… Could I get some food down here too?". You open the fridge to find some carrots, peppers and maybe a few other veggies. Onions, potatoes and tomatoes are always on hand, so you are halfway home. If you don't eat meat, or if it's a "meatless Monday", you're done. Otherwise, a couple of chicken breasts thrown on with the veggies and some seasoning makes this a slam dunk in record time. The most time consuming part of this is chopping the vegetables. If I know that I'm facing a busy week, I chop veggies ahead of time and store them in the fridge.
I really love meals like this because I always have bits of veggies in the fridge. Not enough to actually serve as a side by themselves, but if I put them all together- I'm in business. This is also the perfect way to use up those vegetables that are on the verge of being tossed out. No one wants to waste food, so a sheet pan supper is the way to salvage what you've already bought!
The best part of a sheet pan supper- only 1 pan to wash and if you line it with parchment paper, it's a snap. Use this as a basic jumping off point. If your family doesn't like certain veggies, change them out. This is a suggestion and it's what I had in my fridge. It changes quite literally every time I make this. One week, it could be broccoli and Brussels sprouts and the next I might only have a few root vegetables. The proteins change as well – try shrimp or a beautiful piece of salmon or cod in place of chicken, just remember to adjust cooking times.
A word about the Sheet Pan
If you have a jelly roll pan or a flat cookie sheet (no sides), those aren't sheet pans and they may warp. A heavy-duty commercial grade sheet pan is best. If you don't own one, you need to buy one (or 3) immediately. For less than $15, this workhorse of the kitchen will be a lifesaver. In restaurant kitchens, a sheet pan is probably the most used item. It will last you forever if you take care of it.
Used in this Recipe:
Sheet Pan
Parchment Paper
- 2 - 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 bell peppers, chopped
- 4 carrots, peeled, sliced in half and chopped into 2" pieces (I used rainbow carrots)
- 1 large sweet onion or 5 shallots, peeled and chopped
- 2 russet potatoes, washed and diced into 1" pieces
- 1 large sweet potato, washed and diced into 1" pieces
- 1 1/2 cups grape or cherry tomatoes
- a few sprigs of fresh thyme or rosemary
- kosher salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp. canola oil
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Toss carrots, sweet potatoes and russet potatoes with half of the oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
- Place on sheet pan and put in the oven. Roast until about halfway done, roughly 20 minutes. Toss remaining veggies with 1 tsp. oil, salt & pepper. Drizzle remaining oil over chicken breasts and season with salt & pepper.
- Remove tray from oven and add chicken and the rest of your veggies. Tuck sprigs of thyme or rosemary between vegetables and lay on top of chicken.
- Return tray to oven for 25 - 28 minutes, or until chicken is done. If your chicken breasts are on the smaller side, start checking them at 24-25 minutes. If they are large, you may need the full 28 minutes.
- We add ingredients to the sheet pan in stages because it doesn't all cook at the same time. Potatoes & carrots take a bit longer, so they need a head start.
- If you use seafood instead of chicken, remember to cut baking time by roughly half. Shrimp will cook in about 10-12 minutes (medium size) in a hot oven with convection. Portions of fish will need a few minutes longer.
- *All ovens are different! You may have to adjust a few minutes on either side of cooking times if your oven runs cool or hot.

ALEX Leapai has sent an injury scare through his camp, complaining of a sore shoulder just days away from his showdown with world heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko in Germany.
Leapai, who faces the formidable Ukrainian in Oberhausen on Sunday morning Australian time, alerted his handlers to the problem after a light open training session at a local shopping mall on Wednesday afternoon.
Immediately after bowing to the large crowd and climbing from the ring following four rounds of half-strength pad work with trainer Noel Thornberry, Leapai called to his conditioner Dan Tewson complaining of pain in his right shoulder.
Tewson applied pressure to relieve the pain and Thornberry was advised of the situation.
It is believed Leapai had been suffering a slight degree of pain for several days after training before alerting Tewson.
After consulting with Tewson, Thornberry decided to cut back work on Leapai's overhead right hand punch at the final training sessions leading up to the fight.
The overhead right, or "Bolo Punch", is Leapai's most brutal and effective weapon in his bid to become the first Australian to hold the heavyweight title.
It is a punch which has floored Klitschko in previous fights against men of Leapai's size and Thornberry believes no-one in boxing throws it better, or harder, than the Brisbane truck driver.
"He'll be fine," Thornberry said of Leapai's fitness. "We're watching it as a precaution, but when he gets into the ring he will be 100 per cent ready to go.
"That overhead right hand isn't one he throws all the time and it's not the only thing he's got going for him. If Klitschko thinks that, all the better.
"I want him to feel Alex's strength early on. Klitschko won't be able to push him around. Alex is an unpredictable fighter and that is a dangerous fighter.
"If Alex gets a chance to throw the overhead right he will, and it will be at full strength. I guarantee it."
Catch all the action from the big fight LIVE in HD Sunday, April 27 at 6am AEST

text: Hi All, I made a fairly significant change to the backend of the website overnight my time (Early morning for you guys, in fact about 6am for you guys) The change had to do with the software that runs the server and that the site scripts leverage. Now that change should have come with an increase in the site response times and speeds as it reduced server loads and increased round trip speeds to the database. Anyway with that geek stuff aside. I wanted to see if anyone had noticed anecdotally the increase in the sites speed today. From anecdotal stories and basic testing it appears to actually be faster, but then again connection speeds here are faster than in Oz. There is a further tweak I can do but its a bit bleeding edge so will only do it if needs be. CHeers Dan

You will not find a better photo to illustrate the idea that Davey Johnson is leaving baseball for the golf course than this one, taken before Sunday's season finale in Arizona.
This image will join Davey's dugout push-ups in April as a closing book-end to his 2013 season.
Also, Johnson has now mentioned possibly managing in Australia at least twice in recent days. Here's from Kilgore's Sunday wrap-up:
"The day's emotion pulled on everyone, but Johnson tried not to allow it to drag on him. He talked about managing in the Florida Collegiate Summer League next summer and a trip to Bora Bora and coaching baseball in Australia. Johnson does not see the end. He sees what will come next. "It's not like I'm dying tomorrow," Johnson said. "Good lord. There'll be something I can do."
As for that previous Australia thing, "I already have a job opportunity," Johnson told Ray Knight on MASN last week. "The Florida Collegiate Summer League said they'd like me to come back and manage."
"Is there any scenario that you would manage again?" Knight asked.
"It's a possibility," Johnson said. "I mean, I never say never to anything. This is my last year here in Washington. But you know, when I got fired in L.A., I was burned out. And I went home. Somebody called me up and they wanted me to manage in the Netherlands. I went over there and managed. If something comes up, somebody gets sick somewhere and they need me….I'm kind of promoting Australia. I haven't been to Australia."
Do it, Australia.

So I have a crush on this guy and he always texts me, teases me, and told my friend he used to like me but doesn't anymore and that he likes this other girl but I don't know if he's lying or not, cause he always texts me first everyday and sits with my friends and I at lunch. Plus he got my number from a friend instead of me so I don't know if he does have a crush on me or if I'm still in the "Friend zone"? Opinions please!
Most Helpful Guy
He is unlikely to be lying. Guys never really truly completely forget about their past loved ones. Even if guys got over the girl, he will still do his best to maintain the platonic friendship with the girl.
Does he like you? Unlikely. Are you in the friend zone? Not necessarily.11|00|0
So I'm just kinda in between things then... Right?
Yes, you are kinda in between things.
Most Helpful Girl
Yes, I think he likes you. Why? Because he teases you all the time, he texts you and he got your number from a friend. As for him, not liking you anymore, it's probably due to the fact that you never showed him interested before. However, I am certain that he is still into you.11|00|0

Wonder Girls' Sunmi posed for '@star1' for the September issue!
Looking sexy and elegant with natural makeup and hair down in luscious waves, Sunmi proves again and again that she's matured into a beautiful lady. In the interview, she talked about movie 'Train to Busan,' which stars former member Sohee!
She said, "As soon as I saw the trailer, I predicted 10 million viewers. I was even more sure when I personally went to see the movie. Sohee watched the movie right net to me, and as it neared the ending, she was teary. She thought back to when she was filming the movie in a different way."
SEE ALSO: Sohee shows off her artistic visuals in 'Dazed'
She was complimented on her looks, and she said modestly, "I think it's because they happen to take good pictures of me on my way to the music show. Also, I greatly changed my makeup methods. These days, I go for makeup with a lot of eyeshadow rather than eyeliner. Also, my hair color is dark, which goes well with my light skin, so I look very different."
Regarding her physique, she said, "This could come off as thoughtless, but I'm not the type to gain weight easily. Even if I eat a lot, I consume that energy quickly. I think it's cause of my family genes. My whole family is thin." Lucky girl!

Privilege Undermines Disney's 'Gargoyles' Attempts to Explore Oppression
Yet 'Gargoyles' is also a fantastic showcase of what can happen when creators possessing privilege write stories about the oppressed without their input. … 'Gargoyles,' with its "protecting a world that hates and fears them and has been fairly successful in enacting their global genocide" premise, seeks to be about marginalized peoples. At the same time, it consistently centers and prioritizes the lives of the privileged over those of the oppressed, and places the burden of obtaining justice on the latter.
'Lilo & Stitch,' 'Moana,' and Disney's Representation of Indigenous Peoples
Looking at 'Lilo & Stitch' can provide a valuable lens in which to analyze the upcoming 'Moana,' as well as other mainstream films attempting to represent Indigenous cultures. … Regardless of its individual merits, 'Lilo & Stitch' is a moneymaking endeavor to benefit the Disney Company, which has not always had the best relationship (to say the least) with representing Indigenous cultures or respecting Indigenous peoples.
The Problems with Disney's 'Pocahontas'
In 'Pocahontas,' Disney missed an important opportunity to represent Indigenous women in a relatable, empowering way, and instead focused on commodifying their culture for mass-market appeal. … Pocahontas' life only became a story worth telling when a white man became involved. She only became a princess when a white man recognized her as royalty. She only became the center of a Disney movie because white men realized they could profit off of her myth.
Violence Against Indigenous Women: Fun, Sexy, and No Big Deal on the Big Screen
Over and over, violence against Indigenous women is made to titillate, built into narratives along with action, suspense, swashbuckling, and romance. Indigenous women become exotic props, and when we are identified with these dehumanized caricatures, it becomes easier to treat us inhumanely.
6 Gender-Swapped Films We'd Love To See: Male to Female Casts
From the gender-neutral, Alien-fighting Ellen Ripley, to the deadpan Vulcan Mr. Spock, to whiny Jedi Master Luke Skywalker (yes, that Luke), the genders of some of our best-loved characters have actually been swapping around for decades behind the scenes. The difference with 'Ghostbusters' is that – as a remake – the swap was public knowledge, thus inviting the barrage of misogynistic grumbling that flooded the internet.
How Feminist Is 'Beauty and the Beast'?
Belle saves the Beast – not just physically by breaking the spell, but emotionally and psychologically by changing his behavior and smoothing his sharp edges. … Both of them begin as loners and societal misfits, but they end as the perfect fit in each other's lives. However, this nice, mushy message comes at a cost: Belle's agency as a character. …When we are introduced to Belle she has no more growing left to do in this film other than learn to be less judgmental and find a suitable husband.
Disney's 'The Lion King': Why We Are the Hyenas
By softening hyena matriarchy, however, Disney accurately represents the aspirations of human feminists: Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed joke around and work together in casual solidarity. Shenzi is confident in her opinions and never belittled for this, nor is her acceptance conditional on romantic availability.
Pixar's 'Inside Out' Provides Long-Term Joy
As for 'Inside Out,' it gives us not one female protagonist, but three – Riley, Joy, and Sadness – and NONE of them are princesses! And, minor criticisms aside, the film is a true joy to watch – and, like deeply felt joy – it has its moments of hilarity, of reflection, of nostalgia, and, yes, of sadness too.
Call For Writers: Bad Mothers
Few human beings are quite so stigmatized as bad mothers. Despite the fact that motherhood is demanded of women as an intrinsic part of the female experience, women who struggle with motherhood are seen and depicted as the worst kind of scum. No failure, it seems, is as great as that of a woman who is bad at being a mom…or, worse yet, who decides after having children that she no longer wants to be a mother.
Esmeralda in Disney's 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame'
Esmeralda is a multi-faceted female character who deserves more attention, especially as she has been denied Disney Princess status. There has been little news about it since 2013, and like the stage musical, it seems to have been shelved, or at least is still being worked, and reworked, upon. Certainly, before they can premiere or re-premiere, these pieces need work in regard to racial sensitivity. As someone who has followed the progress of Disney's stage musical, I know that small steps have been taken, such as the inclusion of the word "Roma," in the stage musical, though the word "Gypsy" is still offensively used much more frequently.
Disney's 'Oliver & Company': Rita's Voice in Dodger's Song
Though the villain of 'Oliver & Company' is a loan shark, the film mainly portrays poverty as something that just happens through strokes of bad luck, and which doesn't have institutionalized causes via intersectional oppression from a capitalist society.

text: Life is a series of trade-offs. Take volumizing mascaras, for example: For the privilege of having thicker lashes, you must often contend with the pitfall of clumps. This new mascara is designed to nix that problem with an almond-shaped plastic brush that has dense, finely-tapered bristles. The long bristles coat the lashes, while the short ones get in between them to wipe away clumps as you're brushing through. Think of it as a lash comb and a mascara in one—in other words, it's a win-win. Buy it»

Josh McRoberts went behind his back, nearly lost the ball before retrieving it and heaving it rattling through the rim.
The awkward 19-footer counted before the first-quarter buzzer, and the Lakers enjoyed a convenient occasion Tuesday night to rest Andrew Bynum's sprained left ankle.
McRoberts started in Bynum's place against New Jersey and its NBA-worst field-goal defense. The Lakers shot 65.8 percent in the first half, hardly dipping from their 75 percent shooting in the first quarter. Supporting Pau Gasol's 4-for-4 shooting, McRoberts made both his shots and Troy Murphy made his only attempt.
Lakers coach Mike Brown said he "jumped back and forth" before the game between starting McRoberts and Murphy, who played more Sunday night after Bynum got hurt against Golden State. He settled on McRoberts because of "feel," and the Lakers never trailed.
The Lakers' previous best half on offense was shooting 71.9 percent against the Knicks on Dec. 29, the fourth game of the season. This was the 54th.
The Lakers were still without extra big man Jordan Hill, who is missing a rare chance for playing time because of a sprained MCL in his right knee. Hill was acquired in the trade that sent Derek Fisher to Houston at the trade deadline, but the key element in Hill's acquisition was that his contract expires at season's end.

As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. Consult with an academic advisor, to ensure that your chosen classes constitute a full-time course load, and fulfills major requirements. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Plymouth State University Theatre Studies information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Plymouth State University.
Not all people working as actors in film, television, or theater are professionally trained. For example, Bob Hoskins didn't have any formal training before taking up acting. Universities may offer drama programs derived from the system of Constantine Stanislavski, which was popularized in America by Lee Strasberg and Stella Adler. Regardless of a school's approach, students should study human emotions, character interpretation, voice and dance.
While most modern theatre companies rehearse only one new piece of theatre at a time, and then perform that piece for a set run, retire the piece, repertory companies often rehearse multiple shows at once. Repertory theatre involves a group of accomplished actors, and relies more on the reputation of the group, rather than on an individual star performer. Further, actors who have worked together in several productions can respond to each other's nonverbal cues without relying as much on external direction or adherence to theatrical conventions. Beyond consideration for Plymouth State University drama major, you may think about Salt Lake Community College courses offered for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Whenever phoning to Bermuda, you are expected to drop the 1st digit of the phone number. This is mainly because, telephone numbering plans in Bermuda implement a so called Telephone Trunk Code (Trung Prefix).

Having said that, this specific digit have to be left out anytime you are dialling an international destination.
Certainly, there are instances when an overseas telephone call may not go through. Some of the reasons are explained down below:
Telephone area codes in Bermuda are commonly known as Numbering Plan Areas (NPAs). It had been previously referred to as STD codes in Bermuda.
These telephone area codes are crucial only if dialling from outside the telephone code area. However it's important when making a phone calls from the cell phones.
Phone area codes or city codes in Bermuda commonly indicate regional areas within Bermuda that happen to be covered by 100s of phone exchanges.
The phone area code number in Bermuda is generally preceded in the dial string by the Bermuda country code or the international access code for Bermuda.
Telephone Area codes in Bermuda will often be quoted along with the country access code for Bermuda.
To make an overseas call from Bermuda, first of all dial the IDD code which is "11″, then the country code.

with Gratitude to the late Dr. Manfred von Ardenne of Dresden, author of Oxygen Multistep Therapy(Excerpt from a letter to a colleague, approx. February, 2009) …
What have I seen? Too many to mention, and remember, first of all "cure" belongs to the AMA and they're testy about others using it, and secondly, that the bodymind is more than just take this stuff and be all better. That's THEIR way, and in my opinion isn't at all valid or viable. There are so many variables.
For example, does the person want to get well, at core? Of course everyone will say, "Certainly I want to get well, you idiot. Why would I come to you if I didn't?" But some, like my late husband, really don't. Too, I've seen those who truly want to and don't think they can. They have bought the medical trance, from which as you know it is so hard to awaken. The defeatist attitude with which they try everything tells you it's over before they start. Others who want to and think they can have no support from anyone around them.
In the spring of 1998, Arthur was carried into my house in Florida by his son and daughter, unable to stand or walk on his own, speak, or even sit up straight. He would not make eye contact. He was 80, had had a stroke. I asked him if he wanted to live or die. He glanced up at me and shrugged. The kids (well, they were in their 40's) were horrified that I would talk that way. They looked at each other, murmuring. I said, "Look. I may have only one opportunity to exchange the truth with your dad in conversation." They shut up. I worked with Arthur for one hour with oxygen and exercise. At the end of that time he was laughing and making jokes with me, and walked out of my house under his own power. Shaking off the kids' offered helping hands.
When John, the son, made the appointment, I had told him I would want to see Arthur every day for ten days in a row, and after that, if we had good results, he was to set up a system at home for his father, and we would talk about supplements. He agreed to everything and I cleared my schedule for that hour for the ten days, including the weekend.At the end of the first appointment, I walked them to the car. I said, "Well, we're off to a good start. I will see you tomorrow." John said, "Um, ah, well, er, we have to go to the doctor tomorrow, we might be able to make it next week." Like he was doing ME a favor!! Can't you just see the smoke coming out of my ears?They came the next week. Of course, Arthur had lost everything he gained in the first session, refused to cooperate any further. I was sad for him because he had no real support. And I was furious with his dope of a son who was more spooked by Arthur suddenly functioning again than he had been by the fear his father would die. His affect shifted from, "God, what if he dies?" to "God, what if he lives?" I was disgusted, and clearly, so was Arthur.John called me a few weeks later, a couple of times, begging me for help for his father who was by then dying.

Second Opinion Newsletter sells a book about this, promoting what they call EWOT (Exercise With Oxygen Therapy). This book, originally written by William Campbell Douglass, Jr., and now reattributed to Robert Rowen, is based on the work of Dr. Manfred von Ardenne, who wrote a medical textbook (see top of page) about his findings from 25 years of research in Germany. For the real story on EWOT, I recommend going to the source. Oxygen and Exercise is about much, much more than just feeling more energetic and slowing the aging process.Another good resource is Ed McCabe's book, Flood Your Body With Oxygen. I have a few copies, $15. ppd.Comments? write me.
I use high-flow cannula for EWOT, which I also sell here.

Setting up our hot cocoa station has been the first activity on our Advent calendar two years in a row now (which means it won't be much of a surprise if I do it again next year). The glass jars are Anchor Hocking from Target that I picked up last year. This year I made the (too big! oops!) tags for them out of cardstock with vintage Santas from The Graphics Fairy. I made a little red and white pom-pom garland, because that's just what I do this year. I make pom-poms. I framed some of my vintage wrapping paper stash a couple of years ago, so this year I grabbed one of those and leaned it up against the wall behind the pom-poms. We make our own cocoa mix: the regular is this recipe from Martha Stewart, and the sugar free recipe is here.
And then I made over this wooden tray from the thrift store to hold all of our Christmas mugs. I seem not have a true before picture of the tray, sadly. You can see the design still visible in the picture below, after I spray painted the rest of it bright red. It's original color was a lot like Marsala, Pantone's 2015 Color of the Year. The speed with which I painted right over it should give you some indication of my opinion on the color of the year. I vote Fire Engine Red for color of the year! Or, you know, some nice shade of blue. What's wrong with blue, Pantone?! Ahem.
Anyway, so I have this box of vintage wrapping paper that I won't stop talking about, right? Most of the paper has repeating patterns on it, but there was also this sheet that was green with just one big ol' Santa head on it, the perfect size to go in my new tray.
Longtime readers will perhaps recall what happened the last time I tried to affix paper to wood with Mod Podge, immortalized in the classic post, "DIY Fail: Wrinkly Map of Boston." To sum up, it did not go well. There were many wrinkles.
So I approached this project with some trepidation. And….this one's wrinkly, too! But it doesn't bother me much. I think it's not AS wrinkly, and it's supposed to have mugs on it instead of hanging on a wall for everyone to look at, and I think maybe my love for vintage Santa is strong enough to conquer the wrinkles. So I'm going to tell you how I made this, but I cannot, sadly, tell you how to make something like this without wrinkles, because I still don't know how. I tried to smooth out the wrinkles as much as I could while the Mod Podge was wet, but it's just thin paper, so I felt like it would tear if I went at them too hard. At this point, I've pretty much told you how I made the tray before even starting my official tutorial. But I'll write it anyway.
Here's what you need: (affiliate links)
*Ugly Marsala tray from the thrift store
*Spray paint (I used Krylon Banner Red)
*vintage wrapping paper (or any decorative paper)
First I spray painted the tray's sides and bottom (you know the drill: keep moving, light, even coats). Then I measured the inside of the tray and cut a square from the wrapping paper to fit. I brushed a bunch of the Mod Podge on the tray and carefully put the paper on it, making attempts to smooth out the wrinkles as I went (incidentally, I used spray adhesive for this step with the wrinkly map fail. I had been hoping that this was where it all went wrong and Mod Podge would work better to keep the wrinkles away. Alas, no). Then I let it dry for few minutes and put a another coat of Mod Podge over the top. This took a very long time to dry, but dry (clear) it finally did:
You can see the wrinkles pretty clearly in this picture:
And then I finished it off with several coats of the spray sealant. So far it's holding up very well to having cups put on it (it's been a few weeks now. I'm behind on blogging!)
This tray was is remarkably difficult to get good pictures of. I have no idea why. Anyway, here's what I got!

Of The International Community In It. Essay, Research Paper
The civil war in Angola which has raged for over three decades has been labelled as the "longest and most miserable in Africa." (Goldman, 1999 : 1) The involvement and consequences for the international community have and continue to be vast . This essay will concern itself with the history of the civil war which has ravaged the potentially, richest country in Africa. Following this a critical synopsis of the current situation, investigating the standpoints of both internal belligerents, as well as the views of international actors is delivered. In conclusion a prediction of the fate of Angola in the coming six months is offered.
The civil war in Angola began in 1961. Despite extensive through more than thirty years, it remains one of the most misunderstood of the post-colonial conflicts in Africa. The war has been labelled anti-imperial, revolutionary, a proxy cold war, and a war between elites over natural resources. however the true roots of this climacteric lie in ethnic tensions steeped in history. (Goldman, 1999 :1) In 1956 the Movimento libertacao de Angola /Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA) was founded as a liberation movement to end three centuries of Portuguese colonialism, and in 1961 the armed struggle began. In 1962 a United States backed Frente Nacional para leibertacao de Angola /National Front for the Liberation of Angola (FNLA) was founded with similar objectives and the anti-colonial war proceeded.
Then in 1966 the charismatic Jonas Savimbi emerged on the stage of the liberation war. He criticised the MPLA for being dominated by the "mixed race intellectuals from the coastal cities" (Goldman, 1999 :2) and FNLA by Northerners. In response he launched the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA) to take up arms against the Portuguese as well as the two established liberation movements – the anti-colonial war had become a civil war. Savimbi hailed UNITA as the " real Africans', sons of the soil, living in the bush, fighting against a wealthy cosmopolitan, better -educated, urban elite" (Goldman, 1999 : 2). UNITA draws its support base from the Ovimbundu people. The Ovimbundu were recognised by the Portuguese as hard workers and were used as coffee pickers in the colonial era. They bear a deep-seeded resentment of the 'mesticos' (light skinned people) who make up the majority of the urban coastal population. It is this fixation with tensions based on class, racial and ethnic differences which ahs characterised the war. Ovimbundu UNITA supporters, mostly living in the central highlands are pitted against the mixed-race people from the coast and the Kimbundu peoples of the North. The military logic used in the war has perpetuated the situation, in that UNITA's guerrillas are active in the countryside while the better-armed MPLA holds to the cities located on the coast. The location of diamonds in the north-east and crude oil in offshore waters provides both a device to prolong a war for the respective minority elites, as well as creating further class based cleavages within the populace.
As independence approached in 1975, each side employed the support of Cold War participants. Cuba helped MPLA to take Luanda, South Africa sided with UNITA, and the USA supported the increasingly negligible FNLA efforts in the North, Widespread criticism of external involvement arose, but Goldman purports that:
" in reality it was more a case of the puppets pulling the strings of the puppet masters in a ruthless bid to seize the initiative." (Goldman, 1999 :2)
A 1974 peace agreement was reached and in 1975 independence was gained. The supposed goal of the liberation movement is attained, however, in 1977 and alleged coup fails and the embroilment recommences. From this point on the war follows a horribly predictive cycle. In 1989 the Gbadolite peace accords, brokered by the Zairean President Mobutu Sese Seko are signed, but collapse soon after. In 1991 Portugal intervenes and brokers the Bicesse peace accords . The very next year UNITA rejects the results of the multi-party elections won by MPLA and once again the war ensues. In 1994 the UN brokers the Lusaka peace accords. But in 1998 the cease-fire collapses and Angola is once again at civil war. Nearly four decades after the inception of this war Angola lies crippled, the current generation know nothing but poverty, strife and conflict.
Let us more closely analyse the current situation in Angola. First within the context of the issues involved and the opposing parties viewpoints. And secondly, within the framework of the international situation. To begin a critical discourse on the current situation a useful point of departure is the breakdown, in 1998, of the cease-fire agreed upon at the 1994 Lusaka peace accords. UNITA failed to adhere to its commitments under the peace plan. Its army was not demobilised nor were its weapons turned in. Fighting once again commenced with attacks on "villages, aid agency compounds, government facilities and the UN". (Herbert, 1998 : 11) "There are no angels in Angola" (Herbert, 1998 : 11) however, and the government responded to UNITA's initial recapture of sixty towns with attacks by armed bands and police on UNITA held villages. Soon fully fledged civil war once again raged in Angola. UNITA seeks to control the critical "diamond rich Lunde Norte and Lunde Sul regions" (Herbert, 1998 : 11) in the North East, which through diamond sales fund UNITA's struggle. This also further reiterates UNITA's presupposition to remove the wealth from the hands of a minority elite and to have it controlled by the true 'sons of the soil'. Influence by the UN is negated, in that the neutrality of the organisation is compromised through open association with MPLA and thereby the compromising of its credibility with UNITA.
In April 2000 the military situation teetered in a precarious balance.
"Reports indicate[d] that despite military clashes in several regions of the country, government forces have continued to be effective in further reducing the conventional war capability of UNITA and forcing it to resort to guerrilla attacks." (Annan, 2000 :1)
Yet UNITA has replied with devastating guerrilla attacks on "the provinces of Uige, Kwanza-Norte, Kwanza-Sul, Malage, Huambo, Bie and Huila" (Annan, 2000 :1) and indirectly through the loss of life arising from:
" the continuous influx of internally displaced persons who are fleeing the countryside where fighting, road ambushes and mine accidents are common occurrences" (Annan, 2000 :1)
Indeed no resolution of the conflict is imminent. UNITA reports that:
" the massive re-armament of MPLA by Russia Portugal and Brazil; the supply of mercenaries from Israel, Russia, Ukraine, Portugal and Brazil, and the exchange of military information with some NATO countries [along with the use of] lethal land and aerial war materials [including] napalm, phosphorous, cluster chemicals and air-fuel explosives [has resulted] in the massacre of thousands of the civilian population and the destruction of infrastructure and agricultural fields [as well as] .the withdrawal of [UNITA] forces from strategic positions [with] the immediate objective of preserving [their] forces." (UNITA External Mission 1991 :1)
Nonetheless UNITA reassure their supporters that they "have lost neither men nor materials" (UNITA External Mission 1991 :1) and that while they may be witness to the:
"premeditated genocide perpetuated by Eduardo dos Santos [their] will and determination are undiminished [and they have] begun a new phase in [their] struggle." (UNITA External Mission 1991 :1)
It is evident that UNITA feel themselves to be representative of the 'sons of the soil'. For them the war is fought primarily according to ethnic, racial and class differences. They speak of "genocide" and later in the same statement assert that they will "not be drawn into a war situation which only serves to please the oil interests of some NATO countries." UNITA feel that the land is theirs by birthright and they should be in control of it. Simply becoming a normal political party is not enough, they must rule in order to bring about the return of Angola to its true 'sons'. Angola's wealth in the hands of others is, for them, an unbearable thought. Because the diamond and oil regions geographically fall into Kimbundu and 'mesticos' (and hence mainly MPLA) areas respectively, the war for UNITA has become one drawn on the cleavages of ethnicity and class. In which they, the simple, children of the earth, defend their birthright from the hands of impostors to the throne. The lines across which the UNITA battle is drawn are clear. What then of the MPLA government?
President dos Santos in his address on Angolan Independence day in 1999 proffered that "military victories over UNITA rebels in conjunction with the newly established socio-economic measures have revived hope for the future." (Angolan Mission Observer, 1999 :1) dos Santos, in the same address, argues that peace negotiations with Savimbi have failed in the past and thus he defends a military campaign to ensure peace. He also offers a reconciliatory appeal to UNITA to lay down their weapons. "All those who [decide] to lay down their arms will be well received, rehabilitated into society, and should they wish it , will be able to resume party political activity." (Angolan Mission Observer, 1999 :1) Indeed, he appeals to Angolans to support the government in its efforts for a lasting peace. Further on dos Santos announces government plans to revise electoral issues, security and social assistance. He also mentions his strategy for economic reform including assistance from the international community. (Angolan Mission Observer, 1999 :1) It is clear that MPLA consider their legitimacy enshrined through the electoral process. While UNITA alienates the international community, the government seems to be trying to integrate the country into the global arena. MPLA has defined reconciliation and rebuilding plans in place. It would seem that for tem the war is moving away from merely ethnically defined issues. Military defeat of Savimbi is their only logical course for a lasting peace. For MPLA the fight is necessary only to attain the longer term goal of peace and reconciliation. But as already discussed such a kind of democratic rule will not be tolerated by UNITA. It appears that the belligerents are in irreconcilable opposition.
What are the consequences of the civil war in Angola for the international community? International reaction to the Angolan crises seems to revolve around three main issues, namely, the consequences for Africa, the UN's failure in the situation, and the problem of refugees. Each of these will be dealt with critically. The repercussions for the African continent are powerful indeed. It seems the entire central African region is in upheaval. The Angolan issue along with the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda questions create a notoriously bleak perception of the entire continent as a violent and unstable area. The perpetuation of this image can only lead to crisis throughout the continent. (Argus, 1998 :9) Indeed business aspirations within the continent and from abroad are continually frustrated. Not least of these, the trade in the powerful commodities of diamonds and oil which are manipulated by UNITA and MPLA respectively. Such skulduggery further prevents Africa from reaching its potential. (Carter, 1999 :19) It is evident that the war " in Angola [has] disrupted the journey of Africa out of a period of despair." (The Star, 1999 :8)
The UN has been internationally criticised for 'failing' Angola. The UN's slow response to the call for a mandate to disarm UNITA as far back as the early '90s, has been blamed for the extension of the conflict. Sanctions were not employed until they were effectively useless and the U.S. has interfered on several occasions when a decisive victory over Savimbi seemed imminent. It is the mammoth power held by the U.S.A. which is most ardently criticised. Allegations of an hidden USA. agenda in Africa abound. Nonetheless the UN is most misguided in its assumption that a quick and easy peaceful solution in Angola may be reached. (Gordon, 1999 :10) Indeed Kofi Annan's (UN Secretary General) recommendation to the UN to end operations in Angola arose from the very initial misadministration of the conflict. Due to UN mistakes more starvation, refugee issues and repatriation problems must be endured. (Landsberg, 1999 :8) In its defence the UN cites threats to its personnel, in particular the downing of UN planes, and the incapacitation of the peace process at the hands of UNITA as ample cause for its retreat. (McGreal, 1999 :1) That an organisation such the UN may be affected and even harmed by the civil war in Angola serves as confirmation of the intensity of he conflict, which, in turn, heralds great ramifications within the global arena.
Lastly the issue of refugees is of great concern within the international community. Hundreds upon hundreds of refugees from Angola stream into Zambia and Namibia literally daily. Over 20000 refugees fled into Zambia between October 1999 and January this year, while as many as 2 million are reported to be internally displaced. This in a population of but 11 million! (Grieves, 2000 :1 and Suleseki, 2000 :1) The resulting 'domino effect' has repercussions as far south as South Africa. (Phahlane, 1998 :2) The question of refugees is most pertinent within the international system. Displaced persons have had their basic human rights violated. And they infringe upon the economic, social and political abilities of other sovereign states. The embroilment in Angola resultantly has widespread consequences throughout Africa and hence the international system.
In conclusion, what is the prognosis for Angola in the coming six months? UNITA and MPLA are at loggerheads and the wall which divides them seems insurmountable. The Southern African Development Community (SADC) purports that the OAU should officiate resolution of the problem. (Herbert, 1998 :1) But, as we have already explored, the UN was unable to effectively resolve the issue. How then will the OAU with its unimpressive track record hope to contain such a mammoth embroilment? Perhaps a path to peace lies within Angola itself. By moving away from the concrete definition of the conflict according to the belligerents' interests in oil and diamonds or ethnic issues; and toward a compromise between the two which enshrines the needs of each. A solution similar to that which worked within the South African context. (Singh, 1999 :45) This solution, too, seems unlikely; when one considers that UNITA believe that the wealth of the country is theirs by right. Therefore for them leadership and ownership of Angola is a foremost need if they are to lay down their weapons. Similarly MPLA while reconciliatory, will not want their democratically won legitimacy undermined. It must be deduced then that, for at least the next six months, Angola will continue to find itself in the grip of a miserable civil war. Thousands will die in fighting, and through hunger and landmines. Many will flee to foreign countries and survive there, in the most basic of conditions. The international community will view Africa as an evermore unstable and dangerous continent, and hence economic development will suffer throughout. The UN will complete its withdrawal while a country with immense potential continues to be torn apart. Angola, a nation on its knees, will surely continue its sad decline, while the cause of liberation and freedom is sullied by belligerents who turn a populace against itself.

Four men held as police target dissident republican activity
Four men have been arrested as part of a major police operation targeting dissident republican activity in Northern Ireland.
Three suspects in their 20s were detained in Lurgan, Co Armagh, while a 46-year-old was arrested in Coalisland, also in Co Armagh.
They have been taken to Belfast for questioning.
Police swooped on a number of properties in Lurgan early on Wednesday and forensic search teams have spent several hours carrying out detailed examinations.
A number of other properties in the Woodville Avenue area of the town were evacuated as part of the operation, police said.
DUP MLA Carla Lockhart said: "The PSNI are sending out a very clear message - terrorist activity, no matter what level, will simply not be tolerated.
"Nobody wants to see terrorist activity here and this operation in north Lurgan has once again thwarted the aims of those groups who want to drag Northern Ireland back into the past.
"Dissident activity has no place in this community."
The MP for the area, David Simpson, said: "News that dissident activity is continuing to happen in the area is worrying. These individuals have no regard for life and intend to disrupt normal life here."
