The second annual Deadly Cup Carnival delivered on its promise of being bigger and deadlier when the Indigenous initiative took place in Darwin last Sunday.
NRL NT supported the Cup, which staged seven rugby league matches in various male and female age groups and attracted about 2500 spectators to Territory Rugby League Stadium.
The brainchild of Deadly Enterprises director Shaun Tatipata, the Deadly Cup was organised to celebrate NAIDOC Week while promoting positive health and wellbeing in the community.
The weekend s success followed the inaugural Cup last November. We came up with the concept [because] we were looking to raise awareness and support for an Indigenous eye clinic that we were trying to set up, said Tatipata, a proud Wuthathi and Ngarrindjeri man with more than 20 years experience as an Aboriginal Health Worker.
Abstract
This essay gives a brief overview of the events of 26-27 August 1883, when the volcanic island of Krakatoa in Indonesia exploded; it generated tsunamis which killed over 36,000 people, was heard 3,000 miles away, and produced measurable changes in sea level and air pressure across the world. The essay then discusses the findings of the Royal Society’s Report on Krakatoa, and the reports in the periodical press of lurid sunsets resulting from Krakatoa’s dust moving through the atmosphere. It closes by examining literature inspired by Krakatoa, including a letter by Gerard Manley Hopkins, a poem by Alfred Tennyson, and novels by R. M. Ballantyne and M. P. Shiel.

It means the implications of Brexit are already hitting Irish people s homes, through their TV.
Sky Ireland told the Irish Sun: There are some channels (not very significant ones) which have been removed from the Irish EPG (‘electronic programming guide’ which is basically your TV guide). This is down to the fact that these stations did not wish to obtain an Irish/EU licence post-Brexit and instead chose to be removed.
