entire valleys are a considerable hazard in mountainous regions, in particular when they form highly unstable dams on rivers; the breach of such a dam on the Dadu River in China in 1786 caused a flood that killed 100,000 people. On the other hand, such landslides can generate spectacular landscapes, such as the glaciated terrain around Oeschinen Lake in Switzerland which has drawn tourists since 150 years and is now part of the Jungfrau-Aletsch protected area. Climate variations can cause slope instabilities and with global warming scientific interest in large collapses of mountains has risen. Giant landslides in the Alps are commonly related to the destabilizing effects of ice retreat at the end of the ice ages, but the landslides often occur millennia after the retreat of ice, suggesting that additional triggers such as climate variations and earthquake activity - perhaps in turn caused by deglaciation - are necessary to actually cause collapses. Oeschinensee is situated in the Bernese Alps, within a long side valley of the Kandertal, and lies at about elevation. It receives inflow from glaciers and springs, while its waters eventually seep through landslide debris although in the past (before a small dam was built) the lake periodically overflowed. The mountains are largely formed by various formations of Mesozoic rocks, which are mostly limestones with marls and sandstones; their layered structure and the weakness of the marl layers facilitates the development of landslides. The seismically active Rawil depression is only about southeast of the Kander area. Collapses Multiple landslides and collapses have occurred in the Oeschinen area, including the Kandertal and Oeschinensee collapses; both landslides left debris at the outlet of the Oeschinensee. Apart from the two large landslides, avalanches, rockfalls and debris flows have left smaller deposits. A pre-Kandertal landslide has been identified in drill cores. Kandertal The landslide ran over a length of to just north of Reckenthal. It dammed the Kander River, generating a lake in the area of present-day Kandersteg which broke 200–300 years after the landslide and generated an outburst flood and debris flow, redepositing landslide debris as far as Frutigen. A more recent interpretation in 2020 is that no lake was formed. It is possible that winds generated by the landslide blew down forests, and sparks from moving rocks ignited wildfires. With a surface area of and a volume of is one of the largest landslides in the Alps. and detached from the north-northwestern flanks of the Fisistock mountain, with an additional collapse from Bire Mountain north of Fisistock. Computer simulations indicate that the collapse occurred over a timespan of about two minutes, and the debris first descended into the Kander valley and then proceeded northwards. The emplacement would have taken about ten minutes. During its later stages, the northern part of the landslide incorporated wet sediments from the Kander valley and began to collapse, forming extensional features such as the ridges at Blausee. The Fisistock collapse area forms a box-shaped depression, whose western headwall reaches height while the eastern one is less conspicuous. At Kandersteg, the landslide debris forms the Uf der Höh hill, which is cut by secondary scarps, and which formed when the landslide hit the opposite valley flanks. The debris deposit is formed by large blocks up to several metres wide, with spaces often filled in by later soils. The terrain features hummocks and ridges perpendicular to the slide direction. Some groundwater-fed lakes such as Blausee lie within the debris deposit. Undulating terrain at the end of the landslide deposit suggest that it behaved like
groundwater-fed lakes such as Blausee lie within the debris deposit. Undulating terrain at the end of the landslide deposit suggest that it behaved like a fluid there. The Kandertal landslide was originally interpreted to have occurred 9,600 years ago, at a time where numerous giant landslides happened in the Austrian and Swiss Alps and a possibly earthquake-related group of landslides south of Kandersteg. More recent research in 2020 however implies that it actually occurred 3,210±220 years ago, at a time where a change on climate and an expansion of glaciers in the area of the landslide was taking place. Lake sediments indicate the occurrence of a large earthquake about 3,300 years ago, which, while not necessarily directly causing the landslide, may have destabilized the slopes that later failed. Oeschinensee While the Oeschinensee collapse was once considered to have been contemporaneous with the Kandertal avalanche, research published in 2018 indicates that it actually occurred only 2,300±1,200 years ago. The landslide took place just before historical times in Switzerland, but sediments in lakes have shown evidence of earthquakes during that time that could have caused the collapse. While glacial erosion that undercuts valley slopes is necessary to cause landslides, often additional triggers such as earthquakes are necessary to actually trigger the collapse. It detached from the northwestern flank of the Doldenhorn mountain, reached the valley floor after about 20 seconds with a speed of about , where it was deflected by an earlier landslide deposit (probably from the Kandertal event). The slide crossed the Oeschinen valley and ran up the opposite slope and down the valley. After about one minute the collapse was complete. The landslide left a conspicuous slide surface bordered by high cliffs. These cliffs reach heights of ; the highest point lies at elevation. Debris from the landslide covers an area of at the outlet of Oeschinensee and may extend below the lake surface. The deposits feature large boulders and hummocky topography. How the landscape looked like before the collapse is unclear but a volume of has been estimated on the basis of plausible reconstructions both of the source area and the landslide deposit.

Construction The AlpspiX consists of two 24 meter long steel frames that swing freely about 13 meters above the rock in the Höllental, whereby the floor is transparent through the grating; at the end there is a slanted pane of glass at the end of the path, to allow a panoramic view when it is not dirty. The total weight of the construction is around 30 tons. The individual components, which weighed up to 1.4 tons, were transported up the mountain in 60 helicopter flights. According to a spokesman, the costs were in the low six-digit euro range. The name is a word-formation from the components “Alpspitze” and “X” because the crossed arms running over each other create an X-like construction. Controversy At the opening, the head of government of Upper Bavaria, Christoph Hillenbrand, asserted that the new platform would do much to increase the attractiveness of the Wetterstein Mountains and offer prospects. The spokesman for the Bavarian Zugspitzbahn Bergbahn (as the operating company of the Alpspitzbahn) made a similar statement and combined this with

The construction is about 20 meters above the mountain station of the Alpspitzbahn and has been open to the public and free of charge since July 4, 2010.

the former behaving "as cold as an icicle". Acklom continued her flirtations, this time with Henry, Lord Glentworth, the heir of Edmund, Lord Limerick. Despite these difficulties, the Calverts were still on good terms with Acklom by 1809, mostly due to their strong relationship with Acklom's father. Acklom continued to grace social circles, and by the middle of 1811 was still receiving marriage proposals, with Frances resigned that Acklom was "a very good girl, only with some faults in manner". Opinions on Acklom were not all negative however; she was occasionally chaperoned by John Spencer Stanhope's mother, and was close with the Spencer-Stanhope family. Their biographer, A. M. W. Stirling, takes a more positive approach to Acklom, saying that "she was invariably agreeable, despite the fact that her speech was apt to be too frank and her determination too unswerving to render her universally popular". By 30 June Acklom had keenly agreed to marry a different suitor, Thomas Knox, who was a travelling companion of Spencer Stanhope and elder brother of Edmund Knox, but her father was in declining health and he refused to complete the marriage settlements. By November the marriage was all but cancelled because of these difficulties. Frances, still highly involved in Acklom's social life, bitterly commented that "never was there anything equal to the conduct of the Acklom crew, Miss at the head". After this Acklom met Christopher Tilson, a British Army officer, while at Exmouth. The pair became quickly engaged and the marriage was to take place, but Acklom reneged on the agreement just beforehand; Tilson returned to serve in the Peninsular War soon afterwards. In August 1812 Acklom agreed to marry a J. Madocks, but on 31 December her father finally died, leaving her his fortune and compelling her to break her engagement with Madocks. Now worth more than £10,000 a year, Acklom used her newfound wealth to pay Madocks back all the money he had spent on her during their engagement, and he, like Tilson, chose to escape the situation by going off to war. Marriage Soon after this Acklom met and was courted by John, Viscount Althorp; he had not intended to marry and was only courting her because his parents wished him to marry, but Acklom made it so clear to him that she wished to marry him that he proposed to her despite this. Acklom was likely drawn to Althorp because of his title, and at first the couple had little to like about each other (it had taken Althorp a two-hour walk before he could bring himself to propose) but this changed as the engagement went on. Before the wedding could take place Althorp's grandmother Georgina, Lady Spencer died, leaving them both in mourning and unable to go ahead with the wedding. She retired to Bath, during which time Tilson returned to England, having been promoted to lieutenant-general. It was thought that Acklom would go back on her engagement with Althorp now that Tilson had returned with higher honours, but this was not to be so. Being lauded for her "intelligence and wit" as well as her wealth, Acklom married Althorp at Upper Brook Street, London, on 13 April 1814, in front of an audience of over 2,000 people. Some were unimpressed with the marriage, with Althorp's sister Lady Sarah Spencer deriding Acklom as "a vulgar person and a spoilt child", arguing that Althorp only married her in order to settle his debts with her dowry, but still admitting that the marriage itself was a happy one, with the

Althorp's mother Lavinia, Lady Spencer, similarly disliked the "portly, homely" Acklom, who biographer John Pearson noted as the antithesis of what Lavinia wanted for her son in a wife. After the marriage Acklom was taken to Althorp on a favourable visit to her new family and their estates, but the couple chose to live together at Wiseton, Acklom's inherited country home that included over of land. They went about rebuilding Wiseton in a more modern fashion, at a cost of £10,000, with Althorp focusing his time on farming. Aware that an heir was necessary for the aristocratic Spencer family, Acklom was eager to have a child. She fell pregnant towards the end of 1817, and the couple moved from their town house on noisy Pall Mall to William, Lord Fitzwilliam's quieter house in Halkin Street. On 8 June 1818 the baby, a boy, was stillborn there. Acklom stayed abed, and on 11 June her health deteriorated rapidly and she too died, despite the efforts of Althorp and her doctor to revive her. Her death left her husband heavily in grief. Acklom was buried alongside her son in the family vault at Great Brington on 18 June. Althorp, who had been master of the Pytchley Hunt, refused

in 1723. It was constructed on the site of two earlier buildings, one known by the same name and one known as the Pere Rull. The Rulls were farmers who grew cereals and legumes and raised sheep. Although the family name of the occupants changed over the years the house was still known as the Casa Rull. The building consists of three storeys plus an attic. The house and family was one of the foremost in La Massana by 1757 when Tomàs Perich married into the family. Perich was a wealthy merchant from Andorra la Vella who had made his fortune trading mules and sheep with Catalonia, taking advantage of differences in national tax regimes. Under the Perichs Casa Rull rose in status and the occupants came to be considered "pagesos grassos" (literally: "fat peasants"), a petite bourgeoisie class of landowning farmers. While the Rull occupants had been second-class councillors in the Consell de la Terra the Perichs became first-class councillors and, from the late 19th century, some members became syndic (president).

She first graduated in history and then earned a master's degree in political science. In 2012, while studying history, she began to contribute to Twitter together with other young women interested in Afro-feminism. Encouraged by her mother, two years later she launched her blog, Les Bavardages de Kiyémis dealing with her personal writings, how black women fared at work and the lack of mixing between Blacks and Whites. While some expected her to write an essay on Afro-feminism, she responded by writing poetry. The small publishing house Métagraphes was so impressed with the verses she sent in that they encouraged her to publish a short collection. It appeared in March 2018 as A nos humanités révoltées, expressing her ideas on oppression and all the related struggles. It was republished by Premiers Matins in late 2020 with a preface by the Cameroonian writer Gerty Dambury. It received positive reviews.

Everything was supplied with energy from the company's own power plant, at Casa do Eletricista and Casa das Caldeiras, the only remaining buildings of the entire industrial complex to this day. During the 1930s, Indústrias Reunidas Francesco Matarazzo had colossal revenues and reach. The products of the industrial complex were present in the daily lives of almost all Brazilians. IRFM's revenue was smaller only than that of the Federal Government, the National Coffee Department and the State of São Paulo. In 1937, the installation of the industrial complex in the municipality of Marília began. The unit processed cotton and rice, employing around 400 workers at its peak. The IRFM had great importance in the development of the then young municipality, which came to be known as the "capital of Alta Paulista". The complex even had private access to the railway line for the loading and unloading of its products. In 1975, the IRFM was completely deactivated, and part of the set was listed by CONDEPHAAT as protected heritage in 1992. Francesco Matarazzo died in 1937, being the owner of the fifth largest fortune in the world at the time, with an estimated net worth of 20 billion dollars in current values. New age Francesco Matarazzo Júnior, son of Francesco Matarazzo, took over the industrial complex. He led the company for 40 years, further expanding its branches of production and inaugurating a new age. He built factories in the chemical, food and alcohol industries. Among the new products were cellulose, cellophane, cookies, margarine, carbon sulfide, castor oil and insecticides. In the 60s, new factories were opened, such as perlon, synthetic fibers, plastic laminates and soluble coffee fiber. However, the Matarazzo Industries began to feel the first signs of decline. Decline In 1969, pressure from multinational companies, which had advanced management and advertising techniques, began to affect IRFM's sales, which caused the first negative balance in the company's history. Concerned with the recent shocks, Francesco Matarazzo Júnior hired the international consultancy Deloitte in order to improve the business, but the action did not work. Júnior died in 1977, being replaced by Maria Pia Esmeralda Matarazzo, which was 32 years old. Indústrias Reunidas Fábricas Matarazzo was still the largest business conglomerate in Brazil, and Maria decided to concentrate production on the most successful sectors: paper, chemicals and alcohol. She carried out an administrative reform and started the deactivation of old units that were in deficit. In 1981, the entire textile sector of IRFM was sold to the company Cianê. Between 1981 and 1983, the situation worsened. Maria faced a power struggle with her brothers and the company's revenue dropped even more, caused by repeated shocks in the economy.

of using wet-plate collodion photography. Early life Jackson was born on 25 September 1831 to Thomas Jackson and Helen Miller, one of their six children (three sons and three daughters). Thomas Jackson was a picture-frame maker, looking glass manufacturer, a restorer of oil paintings and a print seller. His business was at 70 George Street. The family home was at 3 Bridge Lane, at the rear of the business. His eldest son, James, took over the business in the late 1840s. Magnus, in turn, inherited the business from his brother. He continued to run the carving and gilding business alongside his career as a photographer up until his death. In the early 1850s, took lessons in wet-plate collodion photography in London. After three years in the capital, he returned to Perth, where he established his own photography business in a wooden studio in Marshall Place, on the site of today's St Leonard's-in-the-Fields Church, overlooking the city's South Inch. Career By 1884, his success was at its peak, allowing him the funds to construct new premises at 62 Princes Street, a few yards to the north, adjacent to Greyfriars Burial Ground. The same year, he was awarded a medal at the International Foresty Exhibition in Edinburgh. In 1886, he was awarded the bronze medal and diploma of merit at the International Exhibition of Industry, Science and Art in Edinburgh for his photographs of ferns and foxgloves. When his
firstly in December 1870, to 30 James Street, then to 59 Scott Street. The couple had three children: sons Thomas (1861) and Magnus (1865) and, between them, daughter Catherine Stewart (1863). Each of them received photography training from their father. In 1897, Thomas emigrated to South Africa, where he continued to be a photographer. He married Adelaide Sarah Grove, a Londoner. He died in Colesberg, South Africa, in 1940, aged 78. In 1877, Jackson was elected a member of the Perthshire Society of Natural Science (PSNS), a decade after its formation. The following year, he was elected to Perth's town council. In 1879, he was part of a committee charged with building the Perthshire Society of Natural Science Museum at today's 62–72 Tay Street. He was elected to the council of PSNS the following year, elevating to vice-president between 1882 and 1884. In the middle of this tenure, he exhibited his work A piece of larch from a tree which had been struck by lightning. He was appointed Police Commissioner for Perth in 1885, under the General Police and Improvement (Scotland) Act, 1862. His role was to oversee the police department, street lighting and fire services. By the last decade of his life, Jackson was on the council of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. A supporter of the Literary and Antiquarian Society of Perth, he bequeathed a brass candlestick to their collection.

Tolkien Appreciation Day, but when he invites Tolkien up to speak, Tolkien declares he has never shared his father's love with the writer, hates Tolkien's work, and the fact that he was named after him. Later at Stan's house, Stan confesses to Tolkien his error regarding Tolkien's name. Tolkien says his parents bought the cannabis farm across the road, which Steve has named Credigree Weed. Randy incensed by this, and by the fact that Steve is using Randy's idea of exploiting Black culture for profit, and speaking in African-American Vernacular English to establish "street cred" with customers. Randy kicks Tolkien out of his house, promising to go to war with Steve. The episode ends with a gag public service announcement by the doctor, directed to those who thought Tolkien's name was really Token. Reception Dan Caffrey with The A. V. Club gave the episode an "A" rating, praising the Tolkien theme of the episode, and stating, "Of all the outstanding Tolkien episodes throughout South Park's history, I'd be hard-pressed to find one as funny and insightful as tonight's 'The Big Fix,' in which fantasy mythology and weed-farming come together to take on the hefty task of satirizing performative allyship." John Schwarz with Bubbleblabber rated the episode an 8 out of 10, commenting on South Park's history of racial discussion, stating "'With Apologies to Jesse Jackson' kind of introduced Matt Stone and Trey Parker's misconceived notions from white people as it pertains to black culture, 'The Big Fix' focuses on them just a bit more. It's an interesting conversation, however, it's interesting that we really didn't get a firm grasp on what the 'apology tour' should be, and perhaps, maybe even Matt and Trey are wrestling with this as well."

When Randy gives him some of the profits resulting from the new ad campaign, Steve initially entertains the idea, but when he realizes he is being commodified, and that Randy is not interested in any of his ideas, he leaves the business. Stan goes to a doctor, and says he fears he is racist, having thought Tolkien's first name was a reference to tokenism. The doctor harshly criticizes Stan for having assumed such a thing, and breaks the fourth wall to question whether "anyone else" believed the same thing. He suggests Stan do some reading from the perspective of a black person, but Stan instead reads books by J.R.R. Tolkien. In class, Stan shares what he learned from Tolkien's work, which he suggests be made required reading. He later addresses a school assembly declaring it to be J.R.R.

Association of Ghana (UTAG) to settle the matter out of court. Speaking to the media after the closed-door meeting on Friday, Education Minister Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum assured the Vice-Chancellors Ghana of resolving the impasse as soon as possible. “Professors, Vice-Chancellors, I am truly appreciative of your commitments to the course. The engagements you’ve been having with your various UTAG members and professors are much appreciated. I will not let you down and I will do everything possible to ensure that we come to an amicable conclusion that will bring joy to the faces of our students who are waiting eagerly to go back to the lecture halls to begin their academic endeavours,” he said. Effects of the strike Should the strike continue for 21 days, all public universities are likely to be shut down. Pro-Vice-Chancellor of Academic and Students’ Affairs at the University of Ghana (Pro VC ASA), Prof. Gordon Awandare, says the law does prescribe universities in the country to shut down 21 days after no academic work. According to him, such a decision is economically driven as careful consideration is taken on the institution's cost for the university's smooth running. In a related development, Education think tank, Africa Education Watch, has called on Vice Chancellors to shut
the National Labour Commission (NLC) and the government in a bid to resolve its ongoing strike. The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) is expected to convene a crunch meeting on Friday, February 4, 2022, over its industrial action. This consideration comes after the Labour Court 1 directed it to consider settling its dispute with the National Labour Commission (NLC) out of court. Both parties were in court on Thursday, February 3, 2022, for the hearing of an application for the enforcement of a directive by the NLC. After a separate meeting with the parties in his Chamber, the judge presiding over the case, Justice Frank Rockson Aboadwe, entreated UTAG to take steps to consult its members on the possible suspension of the strike while NLC withdraws the legal case from court. The Lead Counsel for UTAG, Kwesi Keli-Delataa, while accepting the offer, indicated that the national officers and NEC could not take the decision without consulting its members. He, however, reminded the Judge that anytime UTAG showed good faith, the employer reneged on its commitment. Reasons for strike According to UTAG, the strike action is in response to “the worsening Conditions of Service (CoS) of the University Teacher and the failure of the Employer in addressing the plight of UTAG members within the agreed timelines.

the 2021 Annecy International Animation Film Festival, where it competed in the Short Films section and won the Festival Connexion Award. Production Bestia is the third animated short film directed by Hugo Covarrubias, after El almohadón de pluma (2007) and La noche boca arriba (2012). The idea arose with the intention of addressing part of the history of Chile "with lesser-known characters, less official and darker". Although the original objective was to produce an animated series, Covarrubias decided to focus on one of those stories to make a unitary short film. The main character is inspired by Íngrid Olderöck, a police major and DINA agent during the Chilean military dictatorship, responsible for human rights violations in that period. According to Covarrubias, the objective of the film is not a biography of Olderöck but «a visit to her secret life, her relationship with her dog, her fears and frustrations, which are ultimately the x-ray of a country that is fractured, a country that it is full of wounds that are not even close to healing yet». The technique used was stop motion animation, which was done by Covarrubias

AC women's football is a Greek team, part of the major Athens-based multi-sport club Panathinaikos A.O.. It was first founded in 1980 and operated until 1982. In its short presence, it produced the athletes who starred in the following years, who were decisive factors for the development of women's football in Greece. On June 30, 2021, the reactivation of the department was officially announced. History The women's football department of Panathinaikos was one of the first to be established in Greece. It was founded in 1980 under the responsibility of Panathinaikos F.C.. The original roster
matches with other women's teams but also with men's. The most talented athletes of Panathinaikos were the striker Georgia Tzani, whom coach Gómez de Faria used to call "white Pelé", and the stopper Fotini Karadima, who was also called "Novoselac". The leader of the team was Anna Kotsopoulou. The absence of a domestic championship, which started in 1987, or other competitive events was condemnatory for the section, although it consisted of athletes with remarkable potential. In 1982 the division ceased to exist, but Panathinaikos players continued to compete together as they immediately founded "Doxa Athens" (later renamed to "Doxa Piraeus"), with which they won

location of Ni state or Xiao Zhu. The territory of Xiao Zhu was roughly the entire Shangting District. History After the fall of Shang Dynasty, King Wu of Zhou had appointed his younger brothers to secure the newly conquered Shang lands. Duke of Zhou successfully suppressed the Rebellion of the Three Guards. Cao Xia (descendant of Yan An) was given the small regional state of Zou. Three Kingdoms of Zhu Gongzi You was enthroned at Ni state or Xiao Zhu when Yifu Yan was still alive. Yifu Yan also known as Viscount Yan of Zou, was the seventh monarch of Zou. The state had grown from a small one to a strong one, closely following Qi and Lu. At that time Qi, promoted hegemony, Yifu Yan responded positively and ran to and fro Teng, Xue and other countries, causing dissatisfaction in Lu. Yifu Yan was reported to King You of Zhou, the last king of Western Zhou. Yifu Yan was framed and later executed. Some said that, Cao Yan was executed because he helped the Boyu to usurp the throne during the reign of Duke Yi of Lu. Later Yifu Yan's younger brother, Shushu, was ordered to
he was given the title Viscount Wu of Zou. Viscount Wu of Zou had two sons, Viscount Xia of Zou and Gongzi You. After the unjust case was clear, Shushu returned the king position to the eldest son and went to establish the state of Lan. Li Lai of Ni In 653, Li Lai was ordered by the king to be promoted to Viscount. Since it had the same title as Zou, Ni state was renamed to Xiao Zhu, to show that the states were different from each other because they were from the same clan. Viscount Mu of Xiao Zhu In 525, Viscount Mu hosted a banquet for Duke Zhao of Lu. During the banquet, Ji Pingzi wrote the poem, "Caishu", while Duke Mu wrote "Jing Jing Zhe E" to harmonize. During this period, Xiao Zhu culture spread far and wide to the world. Duke Mu reigned for 41 years, the longest reigning monarch in Xiao Zhu. Defeat During the reign of King Xuan of Chu (369–340 BC), Zou and Xiao Zhu were destroyed. Descendant Yan Hui was the 18th generation descendant of Yan You.

Football) in which it currently plays. History Early beginnings (1984–1999) In the 1990s, the club established itself as the flagship club of Val-d'Oise, which led to its presence in National 1 (then Division 3). As the Val-d'Oise champions of the then Division d'Honneur (now Regional 1), the club was promoted to Division 4 in 1984. The 1984–85 season was very satisfactory for FC Saint-Leu, as they finished in 5th place in their group with 28 points, just 5 points from FC Saint-Lô , who was first in the group. In the next campaign, in 1985-86, the team did even better as they finished the season in third place with 34 points in Group B. This time falling just 2 points behind Évreux AC. During the 1986-87 season, FC Saint-Leu continued to position itself in the race for promotion but did not manage to finish in the top 2, finishing 4th in their group with 33 points. They finished the league behind three clubs from the Ile-de-France region; AS Poissy, USM Senlis, and ES Viry-Châtillon. Indeed, during the 1987-88 campaign, FC Saint-Leu, still in the race for promotion, managed to finish second with 38 points. They were tied with the first placed, Évry FC who were ahead of the Val-d'Oisiens on goal difference. This second place being synonymous with a rise, FC Saint-Leu will therefore play in Division 3 the following year. In 1988-89 for its first season in Division 3 (Championnat National), Saint-Leu kept its spot in the league. At the end of the season, the club finished 4th with 35 points, however well ahead of the promoted Red Star with 13 more points. In the following season, the club was placed more in the middle of the table. They were ranked 9th in the North group with 30 points. The 1990-91 season was a success for the club which finds the race for the rise in Division 2. Battling for first place, Saint-Leu was overtaken at the end of the championship and finished second in the North group with 40 points (just 3 points behind the winners, Amiens SC). The 1991–92 season was similar, with the club once again finishing second with 43 points, tied with winners US Créteil. The 1992-93 season was a good season for the club. Saint-Leu dominated the North group, finishing 1st with 39 points. The club was therefore promoted to National 1 which was called Division 3 then, following the restructuring of the national amateur divisions by the FFF and for example, the creation of the N3, N2, and N1. FC Saint-Leu's first season in National 1 which was the 1993-94 season was satisfactory, as the club finished 6th in group A with 35 points. The following season, 1994-95, the club remained in the National 1 as they finished 13th in the same group with 32 points. In the 1995-96 season, the Val-d'Oisiens were back to the top half of the table as they were in the 5th place at end of the season with 45 points in a group A dominated by ES Troyes AC and Stade Briochin. Saint-Denis Saint-Leu FC The club merged in 1996 with Saint-Denis FC to form Saint-Denis Saint-Leu FC, whose ambition under the chairmanship of former French international Dominique Rocheteau, was to create a Parisian suburban club with a vocation that can occupy the brand new Stade de France full-time. For its inaugural season in 1996-97 Saint-Denis Saint-Leu FC, led by Joël Tiéhi (top scorer in Group A with 22 goals) achieved neither promotion nor demotion by finishing 7th in the National with 57 points. The following season, 1997-98, was more difficult for the club. They struggled in the league and managed to finish 13th with 38 points. Things even got worse for Saint-Denis Saint-Leu who despite their sporting maintenance were demoted to CFA during the off-season for financial reasons. At the end of the 1998-99 CFA season, the club failed to move up to National 1, finishing 8th with 84 points. Saint-Denis Saint-Leu FC was again

At the end of the 1998-99 CFA season, the club failed to move up to National 1, finishing 8th with 84 points. Saint-Denis Saint-Leu FC was again demoted administratively for further financial problems. Following many more financial troubles and many demotions, the club separated from Saint-Denis and became FC Saint-Leu again in 1999 and started from scratch at the regional level. Reconstruction (2000–present) In 2002, the club merged again with Le Plessis-Bouchard (Val d'Oise) to form FC Saint-Leu PB 95. In 2008, the U17s of FC Saint-Leu PB 95 reached the national championship (1st division) and managed to avoid relegation for 2 seasons, before being relegated into the regional leagues. In 2016, the club separated from Plessis-Bouchard and took the name FC Saint-Leu 95. During the 2016-2017 season, FC Saint-Leu 95 reached the DSR (i.e. the 7th division ) by finishing second in its honorary division pool (DHR). The Seniors in Regional 2 (new name of the DHR) chain promotions and then access the Regional 1 (the 6th national division) during the 2017-2018 season. In the 2018-19 Regional 1 season, FC St Leu 95 was a candidate for the rise to National 3 (5th national level) just like their local rival, Saint-Denis FC or their neighbors AS Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône. At the end of the championship, FC Saint-Leu were second in their group, behind the second reserve of PSG who cannot go up to National 3. The club was eventually promoted to National 3, and its return to national competitions since 2000. For the next season, 2019/20, the team played its first National 3 match against Torcy on August 17, 2019. The Saint-Loupiens lost 3 goals to 1. On August 31, 2019, the Val-d'oisiens played their first home match against FC Noisy-le-Grand. It was also their first victory as they won 2-0. Despite this result and some flashes such as 2 wins against FC Versailles, the scarecrow of the group, Saint-Leu does not manage to take off and quickly sinks into the relegation zone.

Work The organization requires each member to accumulate many volunteer hours. The organization raises funds for a variety of charities and causes such as the United Negro College Fund and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. The national core focuses include education, health, youth services, the arts, domestic legislation, and international welfare. Chapters typically also hold multiple social events for a city's Black elites, such as debutante cotillions, fashion shows, gala fundraisers, balls, luncheons, and formal parties. Importance According to Graham, The Links is the "most elite organization" for upper-class American Black women and both the largest and the most influential. Membership in the organization, he writes, signals to other upper class Blacks that "your social background, lifestyle, physical appearance, and family's academic and professional accomplishments passed muster".

Thint in the future. 2007–2009: Second indictment On 28 December 2007, just over a week after the ANC National Conference at which Zuma had been elected ANC president, acting NDPP Mokotedi Mpshe announced that the charges against Zuma and Thint had been reinstated, and Zuma was served with another indictment. He faced twelve fraud charges, two corruption charges, and one charge each of racketeering and money laundering. A conviction and sentence to a term of imprisonment of more than one year would have rendered Zuma ineligible for election to Parliament, and consequently he would not have been eligible to serve as president of South Africa following the 2009 elections, in which he was expected to stand as the ANC's candidate. September 2008: Charges declared unlawful Zuma revived the challenge against the legality of the 2005 raids, but the appeal was conclusively rejected by the Constitutional Court in July 2008. In the interim, however, Zuma had applied to have the charges against him, due to be heard in court from 4 August, declared invalid and unconstitutional. On 12 September 2008, Pietermaritzburg High Court judge Chris Nicholson ruled in his favour, setting the charges aside as unlawful on the grounds that the NPA had not given Zuma a chance to make representations before deciding to charge him. According to Nicholson, the audi alteram partem principle and Section 179(5)(d) of the Constitution required that such an opportunity be extended to Zuma. The state was directed to pay Zuma's legal costs. Nicholson stressed that Zuma's guilt or innocence was irrelevant to his ruling, which turned on a merely procedural point. However, Nicholson also commented on the impartiality of the NPA, saying that he believed that political interference had played a significant role in the decision to reinstate Zuma. Zuma's supporters – including prominent figures such as lawyer Paul Ngobeni – had previously alleged that the charges were the result of a political conspiracy by Zuma's political rival, President Mbeki. Nicholson appeared to concur, saying that he was "not convinced that the applicant was incorrect when he averred political meddling in his prosecution" and that the case seemed to be part of "some great political contest or game." In paragraphs 210 and 220, the judgement reads:The timing of the indictment by Mr Mpshe on 28 December 2007, after the President suffered a political defeat at Polokwane was most unfortunate. This factor, together with the suspension of Mr Pikoli, who was supposed to be independent and immune from executive interference, persuade me that the most plausible inference is that the baleful political influence was continuing. [...] There is a distressing pattern in the behaviour which I have set out above indicative of political interference, pressure or influence. It commences with the 'political leadership' given by [Justice] Minister [Penuell] Maduna to Mr Ngcuka, when he declined to prosecute the applicant, to his communications and meetings with Thint representatives and the other matters to which I have alluded. Given the rules of evidence the court is forced to accept the inference which is the least favourable to the party's cause who had peculiar knowledge of the true facts... It is a matter of grave concern that this process has taken place in the new South Africa given the ravages it caused under the Apartheid order. January 2009: Charges reinstated on appeal Both the NPA and Mbeki applied to appeal Nicholson's ruling. Mbeki, whom the ANC National Executive had asked to resign as a direct result of the ruling, said in an affidavit:It was improper for the court to make such far-reaching 'vexatious, scandalous and prejudicial' findings concerning me, to be judged and condemned on the basis of the findings in the Zuma matter. The interests of justice, in my respectful submission would demand that the matter be rectified. These adverse findings have led to my being recalled by my political party, the ANC – a request I have acceded to as a committed and loyal member of the ANC for the past 52 years. I fear that if not rectified, I might suffer further prejudice.The Supreme Court of Appeal heard the NPA's application from November 2008, and on 12 January 2009 Deputy Judge President Louis Harms ruled in the NPA's favour, overturning Nicholson's ruling. On the central question of whether the charges against Zuma had been unlawful, the court found that Nicholson had misapplied Section 179 of the Constitution: the NPA had not been obliged to invite representations from Zuma before reinstating the charges against him. On the further challenge to Nicholson's allegations of political interference, the court found that such allegations were not properly relevant to Nicholson's decision, had not been demonstrated in the evidence, and reflected the fact that the lower court had "overstepped the limits of its authority." Harms said that findings about political meddling by Mbeki and others appeared to have derived from Nicholson's "own conspiracy theory," and that:Political meddling was not an issue that had to be determined. Nevertheless a substantial part of [Nicholson's] judgement dealt with this question. He changed the rules of the game, he took his eyes off the ball.In a statement, the ANC responded to the ruling by reiterating its support for Zuma as its presidential candidate in the 2009 elections. April 2009: Charges withdrawn In subsequent months, although the Supreme Court of Appeal's judgement cleared the way for Zuma's trial to continue, new allegations of prosecutorial misconduct emerged. These allegations revolved around the so-called spy tapes: recordings of intercepted phone calls which Zuma's lawyers claimed showed that the head of the Scorpions, Leonard McCarthy, had conspired with Ngcuka, the former NDPP, over the timing of the charges laid against Zuma, in service of Mbeki's political advantage. On 6 April 2009, Mpshe, still the acting NDPP, announced that all charges against Zuma (and against Thint) would be dropped, prosecution being "neither possible nor desirable." He stressed that the decision was due to abuses which had "tainted" the legal process, and that it did not amount to a substantive acquittal. The charges against Zuma were formally withdrawn in the same week that he was inaugurated as national president. 2018–present: Third indictment April 2016: Withdrawal of charges overturned Shortly before the NPA its decision in April 2009, at least two political parties had intimated that they would consider legal action of their own should the charges be dropped. The Democratic Alliance (DA) subsequently filed an application for a judicial review of the NPA's decision, with party leader Helen Zille claiming that Mpshe had "not taken a decision based in law, but [instead had] buckled to political pressure." The case was set to be heard on 9 June 2009. However, following initial delays by the NPA and legal challenges to the application by both Mpshe and Zuma, judgement was not laid down until April 2016, when Zuma was well into his second term as president. On 29 April 2016, the Pretoria High Court ruled that the NPA's decision in 2009 to drop the charges against Zuma had been irrational. Judge Aubrey Ledwaba said that Mpshe had acted "alone and impulsively" in deciding to drop the charges, when he should properly have followed legal processes and approached the courts in regard to the spy tapes allegations. The decision to withdraw the charges was therefore set aside, and the NPA, under the new NDPP Shaun Abrahams, had to decide anew whether it would reinstate the charges. Zuma and the NPA unsuccessfully challenged the high court's ruling in the Supreme Court of Appeal, which dismissed their application with costs on 13 October 2017. Zuma was given a 30 November deadline to present reasons to the NPA as to why his prosecution should not proceed. March 2018: Charges reinstated On 16 March 2018, just over a month after Zuma resigned from the presidency, Abrahams announced that Zuma would again face prosecution on 16 criminal charges – 12 charges of fraud, two of corruption, and one each of racketeering and money laundering, just as in the 2006 indictment. His first court appearance was on 6 April in the Durban Magistrates' Court. The trial began on 26 May 2021 in the Pietermaritzburg High Court, and he has pleaded not guilty. However, between 2018 and the present, Zuma has launched a series of pre-trial court applications which some have dubbed his Stalingrad defence. Application for stay of prosecution On 11 October 2019, the KwaZulu-Natal High Court dismissed Zuma's application for a permanent stay of prosecution, pointing out that it relied on several arguments that had already been rejected by other courts presiding over earlier applications in the case. Thales lost on a similar application, and, on 22 January 2020, also failed to have racketeering charges against it struck down. Both the high court and the appellate court denied Zuma leave to appeal the ruling on the stay of prosecution. Warrant of arrest A warrant was issued for Zuma's
central question of whether the charges against Zuma had been unlawful, the court found that Nicholson had misapplied Section 179 of the Constitution: the NPA had not been obliged to invite representations from Zuma before reinstating the charges against him. On the further challenge to Nicholson's allegations of political interference, the court found that such allegations were not properly relevant to Nicholson's decision, had not been demonstrated in the evidence, and reflected the fact that the lower court had "overstepped the limits of its authority." Harms said that findings about political meddling by Mbeki and others appeared to have derived from Nicholson's "own conspiracy theory," and that:Political meddling was not an issue that had to be determined. Nevertheless a substantial part of [Nicholson's] judgement dealt with this question. He changed the rules of the game, he took his eyes off the ball.In a statement, the ANC responded to the ruling by reiterating its support for Zuma as its presidential candidate in the 2009 elections. April 2009: Charges withdrawn In subsequent months, although the Supreme Court of Appeal's judgement cleared the way for Zuma's trial to continue, new allegations of prosecutorial misconduct emerged. These allegations revolved around the so-called spy tapes: recordings of intercepted phone calls which Zuma's lawyers claimed showed that the head of the Scorpions, Leonard McCarthy, had conspired with Ngcuka, the former NDPP, over the timing of the charges laid against Zuma, in service of Mbeki's political advantage. On 6 April 2009, Mpshe, still the acting NDPP, announced that all charges against Zuma (and against Thint) would be dropped, prosecution being "neither possible nor desirable." He stressed that the decision was due to abuses which had "tainted" the legal process, and that it did not amount to a substantive acquittal. The charges against Zuma were formally withdrawn in the same week that he was inaugurated as national president. 2018–present: Third indictment April 2016: Withdrawal of charges overturned Shortly before the NPA its decision in April 2009, at least two political parties had intimated that they would consider legal action of their own should the charges be dropped. The Democratic Alliance (DA) subsequently filed an application for a judicial review of the NPA's decision, with party leader Helen Zille claiming that Mpshe had "not taken a decision based in law, but [instead had] buckled to political pressure." The case was set to be heard on 9 June 2009. However, following initial delays by the NPA and legal challenges to the application by both Mpshe and Zuma, judgement was not laid down until April 2016, when Zuma was well into his second term as president. On 29 April 2016, the Pretoria High Court ruled that the NPA's decision in 2009 to drop the charges against Zuma had been irrational. Judge Aubrey Ledwaba said that Mpshe had acted "alone and impulsively" in deciding to drop the charges, when he should properly have followed legal processes and approached the courts in regard to the spy tapes allegations. The decision to withdraw the charges was therefore set aside, and the NPA, under the new NDPP Shaun Abrahams, had to decide anew whether it would reinstate the charges. Zuma and the NPA unsuccessfully challenged the high court's ruling in the Supreme Court of Appeal, which dismissed their application with costs on 13 October 2017. Zuma was given a 30 November deadline to present reasons to the NPA as to why his prosecution should not proceed. March 2018: Charges reinstated On 16 March 2018, just over a month after Zuma resigned from the presidency, Abrahams announced that Zuma would again face prosecution on 16 criminal charges – 12 charges of fraud, two of corruption, and one each of racketeering and money laundering, just as in the 2006 indictment. His first court appearance was on 6 April in the Durban Magistrates' Court. The trial began on 26 May 2021 in the Pietermaritzburg High Court, and he has pleaded not guilty. However, between 2018 and the present, Zuma has launched a series of pre-trial court applications which some have dubbed his Stalingrad defence. Application for stay of prosecution On 11 October 2019, the KwaZulu-Natal High Court dismissed Zuma's application for a permanent stay of prosecution, pointing out that it relied on several arguments that had already been rejected by other courts presiding over earlier applications in the case.

Both the high court and the appellate court denied Zuma leave to appeal the ruling on the stay of prosecution. Warrant of arrest A warrant was issued for Zuma's arrest after he failed to appear in court in February 2020. His legal team claimed that he was in Cuba receiving medical treatment. The warrant was suspended until May, at which point, due to COVID-19 lockdown restrictions, it was stayed until June, when it was cancelled because Zuma had produced a
