Waynflete Flyers Winter Athletes of the Year
Captain
Saadé was everything a most valuable player and captain should be, coming through in the clutch and leading the Flyers to yet another successful season and it’s an understatement to say his impact will be greatly missed next winter.
Saadé, who grew up in Windham, started playing basketball at the age of five and came to Waynflete in the eighth grade. Saadé, who has also been a member of Waynflete’s juggernaut boys’ soccer team and rows in the spring, has many reasons that he’s a basketball aficienado.
“Apart from the team aspect and the camaraderie that is built between the players, I really love basketball because of how fluid the game is played,” Saadé said. “Unlike some sports, no moment is the same as another, anything can happen and the game is built upon the spontaneous and creative nature of its players.”
Nationalist dreams and nightmares
Mike Macnair reviews Workers and nationalism: Czech and German Social Democracy in Habsburg Austria, 1890-1918 by JS Beneš and The Fiume crisis: life in the wake of the Habsburg empire by DK Reill
Both these books are about nationalism and the break-up of a larger multinational state regime. Reviewing Jakub Beneš’s book, published in 2017, is perhaps rather belated, but it provides fundamental background to that of Dominique Kirchner Reill: Beneš’s book is about the growth of nationalism in the late 19th-early 20th century workers’ movement in Austria-Hungary; Reill’s is a microcosm-study of the disastrous consequences of the implementation of nationalist programmes.

Salvator Mundi, the world s most expensive work of art, was not painted by Leonardo da Vinci - he only “contributed” to it, according to senior French political sources cited by a documentary due for release this month.
The authenticity of the enigmatic and controversial painting has been a subject of heated debate ever since it was bought for an eye-popping $450 million (£330m) by the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman, also known as MBS, in 2017. Its previous owners had bought it a decade earlier for just over $1,000.
