Fuzzy Blue Mice with Cell Phones
The phrase "fuzzy blue mice with cell phones" was first written on a much-folded piece of paper. On each fold of the paper was written a different warning such as "Don't read it," "Don't say it," "Don't hear it," "Don't write it," "Don't eat it," etc. The person would unfold the paper, gradually seeing all the different warnings appear. At the end, one saw the phrase "fuzzy blue mice with cell phones" on the inside of the paper and of course disobeyed many of the commands by reading it, seeing it, often saying it (and therefore hearing it), etc. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

northvia
Northvia, an instrumental post rock band, formed in the fall of 2001 when Thomas Lloyd (Guitar) and Rob Colclasure (Drums) met in Tallahassee, Fl. Soon after Rick Arnow (Bass) and John Garner (Guitar) joined the group as when they first performed in February of 2002. After recording two EP in Hattiesburg, MS (S/T, Your Detached and Self Obsessed) in 2003 and 2004, Rick Arnow left the band and was replaced by Rob’s brother William Colclasure (Bass). Citing influences ranging from Radiohead to Samuel Barber, Northvia has developed their own niche in the post-rock genre. In 2005 they recorded their first full length album Sleeping in Ariports which has yet to have been released.

MehYaM
Founded in Norway, Kansas in early 2005, Mehyam founders Lord Fishsnach II (Bass), and Furonymus (Guitar) began looking for like-minded individuals to help create the Black Metal machine that is MehYaM. They found those individuals in Re-Undead (Vocals) and El-Hammer (Drums).

Since then, they have been dilligent in writing new material and making musical connections. In the last year they have gone through several lineup changes, before ultimately reuniting the original lineup to continue work on their yet untitled first album which was originally dated for late 2005. The album was never released. The band continues to work on it, and has given no indication as to the timeframe for it's release.

However, the band did release a very scarce EP called "The Bagpuss EP" in the fall of 2005. The number of copies released is believed to be less than 25, making it an instant collectable for any black metal fan who can get their hands on it. The band has composed nearly 30 songs, and is in the process of slimming that number down to determine the final track listing.

Ignaz Glaser
Ignaz Glaser (* May 5th 1853 in Bohemia; † August 11th 1916) was a businessman from Prague and the founder of one of the biggest sheet glass factories in the k.u.k. monarchy.

Biography
In 1881 in Bürmoss by Salzburg he used the legal estate of a former glassworks company that went bankruptcy four years before and he bought a giant moor area. He expanded the factory with four glass ovens, which worked with turf. He also founded a brickyard, which was very successful and which existed throughout the seventies of the 20th century. Bit by bit he then bought further moor areas in the neighboring Weidmoos and at Ibmer moor, where he also started to cultivate hop. In the middle of the Ibmer moor area, in Hackbuch, Upper Austria, he established another glass factory. The turf factory was very unstable because it depended on the weather a lot and the turf supplies draw to a close. Thus Ignaz Glaser bought a closed sugar factory in north bohemian Bruex und established a new glass factory. In that factory ovens were heated with coal from open pit, which made the company independent from weather conditions. After Ignaz Glaser’s death in 1916, his son Dr. Hermann Glaser, born on August 18th 1889, took over the glass factory, which experienced a short economical boom after World War 1. But then the company missed the update to mechanical flat glass fabrication and the Glaser Empire broke down in 1926. In Bürmoos flat glass was produced by the company named Stiassny until the end of 1929, which had then bought the holdings. At this point glass fabrication was shut down totally. 80% of the population there was unemployed.

Ignaz Glaser’s grave is at the jewisch cemetery in Salzburg – Aigen. His son Dr. Hermann Glaser survived the Holocaust in Shanghai and died on January 10th, 1956 in Vienna.

In 2006 the first Iganz-Glaser-Symposion with focus on integration took place.

Electronics Australia
$$Insert formula here$$

Electronics Australia was Australia's longest-running general electronics magazine.

It can claim to trace its history to 1922 when the 'Wireless Weekly' magazine was formed. This comprised a mix of general and technical articles on the new topic of radio.

In 1939 the magazine became monthly and was renamed Radio and Hobbies. As its name suggests it was a more technical publication for hobbyists, but it also featured articles on television, optics, music and aviation. It's base was however radio and many constructional projects were published. The magazine's foundation editor was John Moyle.

With the advent of television, 'television' was added to its title in the 1950s. The magazine then was known as Radio Television & Hobbies, or RTV&H. During these years numerous constructional articles on high fidelity audio, amateur radio and even electronic organs and television sets were published.

The growing fields of scientific, medical, computing and other applications of electronics necessitated a name change to 'Electronics Australia' in 1965.

Although many competitors came and went (eg Electronics Today International and Australian Electronics Monthly) during the 1970s and 80s, Electronics Australia survived into the 2000s.

For a couple of years more consumer electronics items were introduced, and technical material occupied the rear pages. Many Electronics Australia staff moved to its main rival Silicon Chip.

A change of name to Electronics Australia Today spelt the death knell. All technical content was removed and EAT changed focus to become a purely consumer publication. Original readers and advertisers deserted in droves and the magazine failed to pick up new readers (there were already many established magazines covering consumer electronics).

The rights to Electronics Australia ar now owned by Silicon Chip who have now some made back issues available on CD.

David Goesling
David Goesling is the blackwood Football Club's newest asset. He is known simply known as "gozza" or the "romancer of lanky". 2006 is gozza first year of senior football and has blossemed into a star of the future. His Bucket hands, likend to stuart Lowe or Jonothan Brown are known among his opponents and respect for this new player has spread like lanky's anus when he is in the company of gourdie. Many people like to relate "Goz" to ryan o keefe in which david can pull down coutless marks from a centre half forward postion or sweep the backlines and propell his team into attack. Recently David was put in the backlines to stem the flow from the best team in the league and gathered an amazing 20 kicks in only his second outing for the year.

In his first pre season hitout he recieved best on groud hounours whilst only playing a half against the mighty ironbank. Playing in the midfeild his work ethic and smooth skills set his team up with a chance but unfortunatley they couldnt prevail. Goz seems to be a star in the making but unfortuantly he recieved AIDS from an anoymous lanky figure.

UNITE
UNITE is Australia’s newest union. It is a fighting union for fast food and retail workers in Victoria. The union grew out of the UNITE campaign for casual workers rights. The campaign first started in Melbourne in 2003 as an organisation fighting for low paid and casual workers. Its most notable campaigns were the ‘name and shame’ campaign on Brunswick Street in Fitzroy and the campaign to unionise Boarders Books on Lygon Street in Carlton.

Whilst the campaigning of UNITE did lead to improvements in the wages and conditions for some workers in Melbourne’s inner suburbs, it became clear that much more than a lobby group was required to take on the massive issues faced by workers in the fast food and retails sectors.

That is why in May 2006 UNITE decided to turn the campaign into a trade union covering fast food and retail workers. The fast food and retail industries are a source of employment for thousands of young people. The life of a worker in these industries usually means casual hours, low pay, workplace bullying, and unsafe work practices.

UNITE has been set up with task of making trade unionism relevant to young people. It is an organisation that educates young people about their rights in the workplace, that takes up the issues that young people face in the wider community and organises them to fight back and win the decent wages and conditions that they deserve.

Whilst UNITE is technically not be a ‘registered’ union it is able legally represent groups of workers in negotiations with employers.

Adyashanti
Adyashanti is a spiritual teacher in the Bay area. He was born Steven Gray in 1962. He studied Zen under Arvis Joen Justin, a student of Maezumi Roshi, and Kwong Roshi, a student of Suzuki Roshi. He dares all seekers of peace and freedom to take the possibility of liberation in this life seriously. He began teaching in 1996, at the request of his Zen teacher with whom he had been studying for 14 years. Since then many spiritual seekers have awakened to their true nature while spending time with Adyashanti.

The author of Emptiness Dancing, The Impact of Awakening, and My Secret is Silence, Adyashanti offers spontaneous and direct nondual teachings that have been compared to those of the early Zen masters and Advaita Vedanta sages. However, Adya says, "If you filter my words through any tradition or '-ism', you will miss altogether what I am saying. The liberating truth is not static; it is alive. It cannot be put into concepts and be understood by the mind. The truth lies beyond all forms of conceptual fundamentalism. What you are is the beyond—awake and present, here and now already. I am simply helping you to realize that."

A native of Northern California, Adyashanti lives with his wife, Annie, and teaches extensively in the San Francisco Bay Area offering satsangs, weekend intensives, and silent retreats. He also travels to teach in other areas of the United States and Canada.

"Adyashanti" means primordial peace.

"Golden Touch" NOT Razorlight original?
How can the song "Golden Touch" be a Razorlight original? It is performed on a Woodstock 1969 film although not on the stage but somewhere in the campsite.

Phi Rho Alpha
Phi Rho Alpha is a local sorority whose Alpha Chapter was established at the University of Michigan in 2005. Its founders, Nicole DiPaolo and Sarah Daniel, desired to create a n organization that would be more accomodating of its sisters' busy schedules; at the same time, it would avoid common stereotypes and prejudices ascribed to many other sororities.

Phi Rho Alpha's letters correspond to the Greek translation of the sorority's motto, "Friendship Rooted in Individuality." This motto was formulated by Nicole DiPaolo and is considered the foundation of the sorority's ideaology.

Phi Rho Alpha's mission statement, written by Sarah Daniel and published on the Phi Rho Alpha website, is as follows: "The purpose of PHI RHO ALPHA shall be to establish a lasting bond of friendship and sisterhood between its members, to promote strength and character among its sisters, and to instill in its members the values of respect, individuality, and leadership."

Phi Rho Alpha's symbols are the climbing ivy and the pyramid. Its colors are sunset pink and aquamarine, both of which are represented by its jewel, alexandrite. The mascot of Phi Rho Alpha is the white wolf, and its flower is the pink magnolia. The significance of these symbols is revealed to new sisters during the intake process (known as "pledging").

The rush process for Phi Rho Alpha differs greatly from the more commonly known "Fall Formal Rush" utilized by most national sororities. Phi Rho Alpha hosts various "rush events" every semester (as opposed to only once a year) that give prospective members the option of meeting Phi Rho Alpha sisters and pledges in an informal setting. Interested women then submit an application form, downloadable from the website, and are scheduled for a brief interview. Once they are extended a bid from Phi Rho Alpha, they may begin the pledge process. Initiation generally takes place towards the end of the semester during which new members accepted their bids.

Phi Rho Alpha takes part in many philanthropic events during the semester, most notably the University-wide Relay for Life, a fundraiser for cancer research. Our members have also participated in events such as K-Grams, Dance Marathon, and Goodness Day. As of the 2006-2007 school year, Phi Rho Alpha will embark on its official philanthropy, the Reach Out and Read program.

More information on Phi Rho Alpha may be found at the sorority's official website, http://www.phirhoalpha.org.

Minitel
Minitel, established in 1987, is as a leading value added, multi-platform distributor of IT software and hardware products in Portugal, with indirect sales through a 1200-strong reseller network and all major Portuguese retail chains.

Minitel main distribution brands include Adobe, Macromedia, Symantec, McAfee, Quark, Scansoft, Iris, Wacom, LaCie, Belkin, Microtek, Umax, Seiko Precision, Seiko Instruments, Hauppauge, Archos, Formac, Sonnet, Crumpler, Saitek, Topcom and Skullcandy.

Minitel expanding IT activities led to the creation of group companiesMultiple Zones Portugal SA (1993) and Multiple Zones Spain (1995), both catalogue companies operating in Portugal and Spain under the trademarks PCZone and MacZone, Webzone (2005), a computer store chain with the exclusivity of the Apple Store Centers in Lisbon and Oporto, and Netcetera (2004), a service company specializing in computer security.

In 2005 Minitel began distribution activities into the Spanish market, operating from its own offices in central Madrid.

Business Philosophy

Minitel distributes its product lines exclusively through indirect sales channels.

These channels, initially centered on computer VARS and computer resellers, have evolved over the years to embrace also large national superstores, retail chains and supermarkets, such as FNAC, Vobis/Worten (Sonae), Staples (Office Centre), Carrefour, El Corte Inglès and MediaMarkt.

This consumer channel allows Minitel to move in volume its fast moving product lines like antivirus software, computer peripherals and software, as an extension its dealer network, carrying often the same product lines but further providing installation, training and after-sales support. High-end lines like Quark and Adobe software, high-end digital image scanners and complex antivirus systems are addressed through computer VARs and specialized dealers.

The need to offer support for its high-end product lines, given the complexities of the imaging, security and networking markets, has driven Minitel to build and grow over the years a strong technical team, aimed to provide Minitel resellers and VARS with fast response pre and after sales support and training.

Minitel offers first line diagnosis and repair services for all its distribution lines; additionally, Minitel provides its resellers with special funding and back to back financing programs, aimed at a variety of purposes ranging from extra credit terms for demo equipment to renting and lease funding to the resellers clients.

Drawing upon Minitel market experience and background distributing US computer products in Portugal, and to address emerging market opportunities for a catalogue direct business, Minitel launched in 1993 a direct marketing company, Multiple Zones Portugal SA, publisher of Macintosh and PC catalogues under the trademarks MAC ZONE PORTUGAL and PC ZONE PORTUGAL, and focusing through its catalogues on advertising and marketing PC and Macintosh products to small and medium-sized companies, Government agencies and public companies, home businesses and end-users.

The quick success of Multiple Zones Portugal led Minitel to start Multiple Zones España SA in 1995, exploring similar business opportunities in the Spanish market; headquartered in Madrid, Spain, Multiple Zones España publishes PC and Mac catalogues under the trademarks MAC ZONE SPAIN and PC ZONE SPAIN.

Through an agreement with Apple Europe, Multiple Zones Portugal opened the first New Deal Apple Centers in Portugal , on the flagship Amoreiras Shopping Center complex in Lisbon (October 2005 ) and at Oporto Av. Da Boavista, one of the city most prestigious business and shopping areas ( February 2006 ).

Minitel skills and in-depth knowledge in anti-virus and security technologies (Minitel is the main partner of Symantec in Portugal and one of its oldest distributors worldwide) were behind Minitel decision to start Netcetera, a service company which supports Minitel reseller community in the deployment of anti-virus, Internet and communication systems.

All 4 companies, although part of the same group, are totally differentiated from Minitel, through their own corporate identity, staff and independent management teams, allowing them market flexibility needed to quickly address and exploit emerging market opportunities and niches in the IT sector.

Financial background Minitel and its affiliates employ 65 people; revenues and gross margins have grown steadily over the past 5 years, with consolidated sales in excess of €14,4 million in 2005. One of Minitel founding partners, Mr. João Pereira Coutinho, is also the Chairman and main shareholder of SAG SGPS, with activities centered on automobile and finance. SAG is the exclusive distributor for Portugal for Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, Bentley and Lamborghini. SAG 2005 revenues were in excess of € 718 Million. SAG is listed at the Lisbon Stock Exchange (www.sagsgps.com).

Hottest point of the day
The hottest point of the day is generally the time from 12:00 noon to 3:00. From 3:00 to 4:00 the temperature decreases about 1 to 3 degrees, and usually stays around this temperature until sundown where it decreases much more. Although in Hawaii the temperature is much more dependable, and from about 4:00p.m. to 4:30p.m. the temperature is higher than any other time of the day. This is because the temperature builds up throughout the day and at about 4:00p.m. the temperature peaks. The temperature in michigan definately does not peak around 4:00p.m.

Introduction
Jwhwlao Daimalu is considered as a hero of the ancient golden period of the Bodos.Today,he is remembered as the cause of Bodo people's tragedy because it is believed the he had cursed the Bodos for the deeds of some people who betrayed him.A statue of Jwhwlao Daimalu carrying his bow and arrows can be seen pointing his hand to the sky near the national highway of India in the Kharigao village of Kokrajhar District

History
Jwhwlao Daimalu was a senior official during the reign of King Iragdao.It is said that brave Daimalu along with his troops had defeated the King of Burma and had brought white elephants as a token of victory.

The Curse
It is believed that Lord Shiva had appeared in Daimalu's dream.Lord shiva had asked Jwhwlao for his needs for super natural powers.Given any of five fingers of the Lord to choose from Jwhwlao grabbed all of the fingers of Lord Shiva.The consequence of this is that jwhwlao got all the powers in the five fingers but then Lord Shiva cursed him that he was so greedy to be betrayed by his own blood. Daimalu had become very powerful as time passed by and by.The collegues of Daimalu were then becoming jealous of the bravery and power of daimalu;he could defeat two elephants at a moment.So the collegues somehow made the king to go against daimalu and thus Jwhwlao was put to prison.But no one could kill him because of the blessings of Lord Shiva.Then the officials brought Daimalu's step mother to meet Daimalu and they somehow managed to bring the step mother to their side.The step mother was able to find out that Daimalu can be killed only if they pour liquid metal into his ear.Thus the officials were able to kill Daimalu.But Daimalu,just before his death cursed that bodos will never prosper.

Sumiton Christian School
Sumiton Christian School is a private, Christian school affiliated with Sumiton Church of God located in Sumiton, Alabama. Sumiton Christian features K-12 grades. Their mascot is the Eagles.

History
In 1976, a group of dedicated people with a dedicated pastor, James Hockensmith, began a school inside the newly built addition to the Sumiton Church of God. Classes for K-4 and K-5 were held in Sunday School rooms. The name of the new school was KIDDIE COLLEGE; the first teachers included Diane Cheatham in K-4 with Janice Greer and Mary Barton sharing the duties in K-5. In 1983, the highly successful KIDDIE COLLEGE expanded to include grades K-3 through seventh grade. The school continued to hold classes in the Sunday School department of the church. The name was changed to PATHWAY CHRISTIAN SCHOOL. The enrollment more than tripled. The name of the school was changed again when Pathway Christian School became known as Sumiton Christian School in 1986. At the same time, another giant step was taken. A new building was built and the school moved to their new home in the autumn of 1986.

S.C.S. had an administrative change as Rebecca Potts became head administrator and principal in 1989. Under the leadership of Potts, Sumiton Christian outgrew the main building. The school board and pastors council voted to build and in the fall of 1992 elementary and junior high entered Building Two, equipped with a library, computer lab, and cafeteria-style lunchroom. The enrollment had climbed to 325. Finally, in 1995, Sumiton Christian graduated it's first class.

Athletics
The Eagles of Sumiton Christian made the jump in competetive sports from the AISA to the AHSAA where they would compete against mostly public schools. The Eagles have 2 state championships. The first was a state basketball championship won in 1996 when Sumiton Christian was a member of the AISA. The second is the 2A state baseball championship won in 2004 after the Eagles moved to the AHSAA.

Asynchronous Thread Messaging
Asynchronous Thread Messaging is when messages are sent but are asynchonous to the running of the program - i.e. the thread doesn't have to wait for the message to continue. Examples of this are found in CONIC and POSIX. There are many drawbacks with this model, however. Firstly potentially infinite buffers are needed to store message that have not yet been read. This is further compounded by the fact that the receiver may have been terminated. As asynchronous communication between threads is always out of date then many sending threads expect anacknowledgement in the form of a synchronous communication; ths can lead to the sender being deadlocked by the non-response of the receiver. The thread model must be more complex to cope with this; more communications are associated with use of asynchronous communication (as detailed above) and therefore more stringent fault checking, and graceful degradation of deadlocked senders must be implemented. Finally the correctness of the competed system is mre difficult to prove using traditional modelling tools, as the asynchronous nature of the messages makes their timing difficult to predict.

Risk Adjusted Return
Investments in a market have different returns and level of risk. The most important point is not to compare the returns of different investments if they have a different level of risks involved. To do so the investor should have standardized way known as risk adjustment where an invester can compare 2 inventments with different level of risks.

In this way if the investor over exceeds the market other invested funds in the market then it is called outperformed the market or beat the market.

There are 3 techniques to calculat the risk adjusted return namely.

lyricsfly.com
Lyricsfly is a large collection of song lyrics indexed by suggesting search results in real time as fast as you type in the search box. The ads on this page are minimal and layout is very similar to the known Google search engine. The system is based on Google suggest ajax script which is used on four different types of searches.

artist - which is the default front page option, the system will suggest artists from its entire library

song - which rather quickly blasts through over 300,000 titles as you type

album - an option incase you know the album and want to see just the songs on it

lyrics - which actually searches the text inside the lyrics. A very useful function if you know the lyrics but can't figure out who the artist is or what the song title is.

The lyrics search does not however suggest every possible lyrics text as this would probably mean millions if not billions of phrases would have to be stored and called up in real time. Instead, the system uses previously recorded user input for suggestions and actually suggests what you might be looking for. If you manage to come up with a unique phrase and you don't hit the limit of songs found, your search phrase will be recorded instantly and will be added to the suggestion library for next user who types that exact phrase. Also, in the view page while actually viewing the lyrics the search phrase will be highlighted.

Lyricsfly has also a very slick correction/addition/deletion ajax based system. There are no signups required and all changes can be made very quickly and approvals are usually committed within few days. You can continue to correct a given title while other users might re-correct your correction. The delete option will let you "mark" a title as duplicate. You can also e-mail a link to each title as well as print from an optional print view which strips all ads and pictures as well as gives you an option to resize the font on the fly.

Pictures on lyricsfly are very minimal with album cover for most tiles. Clicking on the album cover will give you a larger view as well as an option to print it.

Ads are very minimal, currently limited to Google ads only. The site has a very tight policy about popups which simply put, will not ever be used as an advertising form.

Legal side of the site is also interesting as the creators do not represent the service as just another large database offering copyrighted material for free. Instead, it is recognized as a search engine which crawls and caches lyrics just like others do web pages.

Overall, the site looks very promising, striking a very strong controversy against the widely popular lyrics sites. Most of which offer very little and trash their pages with popups and flash ads. While already very useful, the site will continue to grow and some day may be the most accurate and the cleanest place to get lyrics to your favorite song titles.

Declined. I'm sorry, but your article appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. If you still feel that this subject is appropriate for Wikipedia, please rewrite your proposed article in the form of an encyclopedia entry. Encyclopedia entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of published, verifiable sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the item being discussed.

Ons Gelderland
Ons Gelderland is the anthem of the province of Gelderland in the Netherlands.

There are two versions of the song. The first, 'Ons Gelderland' is sung the most, but the second, 'het Geldersch Volkslied', is considered by many to be the official anthem. Since Gelderland is a province, and not a country, the officiality of either one remains undecided. Nowadays, the provincial government of Gelderland displays 'Ons Gelderland' on their website. In the past they have stated 'het Geldersch Volkslied' to be the official anthem.

A remarkable detail to note is that each version can be sung to the same tune. Since the texts have already been put to different tunes, this is a surprisingly convienient coincidence for many songwriters in Gelderland.

Ons Gelderland
Text and music by C.J.C. Geerlings.


 * Waar der beuken breede kronen
 * Ons heur koele schaduw biên;
 * Waar we groene dennebosschen,
 * Paarse heidevelden zien;
 * Waar de blonde roggeakker
 * En het beekje ons oog bekoort,
 * Daar is onze Vale ouwe,
 * Kost'lijk deel van Gelre's oord.
 * Kost'lijk deel van Gelre's oord.


 * Waar bij zomerzon de boomgaard
 * Kleurig ooft den wand'laar toont,
 * En de vruchtb're korenakker
 * Stagen arbeid rijk'lijk loont;
 * Waar het aorige rivierke
 * Rustig stroomt langs groenen boord,
 * Daar is onze rijke Betuw
 * Kost'lijk deel van Gelre's oord.
 * Kost'lijk deel van Gelre's oord.


 * Waar kasteelen statig prijzen
 * Rond door park en bosch omringd,
 * Waar het voog'lenkoor zijn lied'ren
 * In het dichte loover zingt;
 * Waar het lief'lijk schoon na 't landschap
 * 't Oog des schilders steeds bekoort,
 * Daar is onze "olde Graafschap",
 * Kost'lijk deel van Gelre's oord.
 * Kost'lijk deel van Gelre's oord.

Structure
Each couplet sings about one of the three part of Gelderland: first the Veluwe, then the Betuwe and lastly the Achterhoek or Graafschap (which litteraly means: County or Earldom).

The song is written in an ancient form of the Dutch language, with some remarkable Brabantic influences, probably because Zuid-Gelders is one of the many dialects spoken in Gelderland.

Geldersch Volkslied
Text by Jan van Riemsdijk, music by Rombout van Riemsdijk


 * Gelders dreven zijn de mooiste
 * In ons dierbaar Nederland.
 * Vette klei- en heidegronden,
 * Beken, bosch en heuvelrand.
 * Ginds de Waal, daar weer de IJssel,
 * Dan de Maas en ook de Rijn
 * Geeft ons recht om heel ons leven
 * Geeft ons recht om heel ons leven
 * Trotsch op Gelderland te zijn.
 * Trotsch op Gelderland te zijn.


 * Waar ons vaderland bebouwd werd
 * Door den Saksischen Germaan,
 * Daar werd onze stam geboren,
 * Daar is Gelderland ontstaan.
 * En het graan, dat thans geoogst wordt,
 * Waar het woest en wild eens was
 * Geeft ons recht om trotsch te wezen,
 * Geeft ons recht om trotsch te wezen,
 * Op ons echt Gelders ras.
 * Op ons echt Gelders ras.


 * In de dorpen en de steden
 * Tusschen Brabant en de Zee,
 * Tussen Utrecht en Westfalen
 * Heerscht de welvaart en de vreê!
 * Met je kerken en kasteelen,
 * Met je huisjes aan den dijk,
 * Gelderland, jij bent de Parel
 * Gelderland, jij bent de Parel
 * Van ons Hollandsch koninkrijk.
 * Van ons Hollandsch koninkrijk.

Structure
The first couplet sings about the geography of Gelderland. The second sings about the history and the third couplet is more of a hymn to Gelderland, praising it as the Pearl of the Netherlands.

This anthem is again written in an ancient form of Dutch, albeit somewhat more modern in language then 'Ons Gelderland'.

Hollands vs. Nederlands
The last lines are disputed, and often sung differently. They talk about a kingdom of Holland, which essentialy is nonexistent. Oftentimes, the phrase is sung "Van ons Neêrlands koninkrijk" which instead talks about the kingdom of the Netherlands, from which Gelderland is a province. Some people from the Netherlands living outside the provinces North Holland and South Holland strongly object against the use of Holland when denoting the entire Netherlands (see also: 'the Netherlands, naming conventions'). This is often also the case in Gelderland, hence the alterations.

Dr. Mostafa Kamal Tolba
Dr. Mostafa Kamal Tolba, world renowned scientist and for 17 years Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), has been an eloquent and tireless defender of the environment for most of his life.

Born in Egypt, a country whose economy depends on the waters of a river that flows through other states, made him aware of the link between environment and politics. He has always believed that common environmental interests should override political differences, even conflicts between nations. Dr. Mostafa Tolba was born in the town of Zifta, north of Cairo in 1922. He graduated with first class honours from Cairo University in 1943, and obtained his Ph.D. from the Imperial College, in 1948. He returned to Cairo to eventually become Professor in the Faculty of Science, Cairo University, where he established his own school in microbiology and is currently Emeritus Professor. He was also Professor in Baghdad University, 1954-1959. After this distinguished academic career, Dr Tolba joined the Egyptian civil service as Undersecretary of State for Higher Education and Minister of Youth, and on the international scene, as an alternate member of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO's) Executive Board. He became the first president of the newly established Academy for Scientific Research and Technology in 1971. As early as the mid-1970s, he concentrated on the issue of stratospheric ozone layer depletion as meriting careful monitoring on the scientific front. In 1972, he led his country's delegation to the Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment which gave rise to UNEP. Immediately after Stockholm he was nominated as Deputy Executive Director of the newly established United Nations Environment Program (UNEP). Within 2 years, he became the Executive Director - a post he held until retiring at the end of 1992.

In Vienna (1985), Montreal (1987) and later in London (1990), he managed to formulate the prototype model for dealing with global environmental issues and the effective mechanisms for the transfer of technology and funds to developing countries, as and when necessary, through the Vienna Convention and the Montreal Protocol. It is to his leadership that much of the credit for directing the environment to the forefront of global thinking and action is due. He applied his belief that environmental decisions are inseparable from socio-political decisions in all his consultations with political leaders. His negotiating skills and scientific knowledge contributed to UNEP's most widely acclaimed success - the historic 1988 agreement to protect the ozone layer - the Montreal Protocol. The Protocol is recognized as setting a precedent for international preventive rather than corrective environmental action. At the Earth Summit in Brazil, he was at the helm of the negotiations when the Conventions on Climate Change and Biological Diversity were signed. He also successfully worked for treaties to protect the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. During the Iran-Iraq conflict he often had the warring parties at the same negotiating table discussing common environmental interests.

Under his leadership, UNEP became the small core organization within the UN family, acting as the catalyst spurring governments, businesses, academia, IGOs and NGOs, to meaningful action. UNEP, one of the smallest members in the UN family, could leverage on average four times its modest budget to carry out more than a thousand projects. Pursuing his position during Stockholm, he diligently promoted his philosophy of "Development without Destruction". It implications are clearly reflected in his speeches, books and in UNEP's programmes, in many fields, and at many levels.

Dr. Tolba has published over 95 papers on plant diseases, also more than 600 statements and articles on the environment. He has received many awards and prizes, both from academic institutions, governments and NGOs in many countries. These include honorary doctorates, awards, medals, and high decorations. He cherishes in particular the D.Sc. degrees from Moscow State University, and the University of Guadalajara; DLL, Williams College; fellowship of Imperial College, London; the Sasakawa Prize; the Only One Earth Award of the René Dubos Center; the Global Environmental Award (IAIA) in 2003; the Zayed International prize (2003); Global Environment Leadership Award (GEF) in 2003; the Distinguished International Service Award of the Regents of the University of Minnesota; high decorations from Hungary, Jordan, Morocco, Poland, Spain, USA, Yugoslavia, and the First Order Decoration of the Arab Republic of Egypt.

Back in Egypt, Dr. Tolba established in 1994 the International Center for Environment and Development (ICED), a non profit organization, financing environmental projects in less developed countries through an endowment fund administered by an independent board of trustees. He is the president of ECOPAST - Centre for Environment and Our Common Past, Washington, D.C.; dealing with the impact of the air pollution on cultural heritage. He is also chairman of the Egyptian Consultants for Environment and Development (ECED). He is also member of many academies, institutes, committees and other organizations.
