David (/ˈdeɪvɪd/; Hebrew: דָּוִד, Modern David, Tiberian Dāwîḏ;ISO 259-3 Dawid; Arabic: داوُد Dāwūd; Syriac: ܕܘܝܕ Dawid; Ancient Greek: Δαυίδ; Latin: Davidus, David; Strong's: Daveed) was, according to the Books of Samuel, the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel, and according to the New Testament, an ancestor of Jesus. His life is conventionally dated to c. 1040 – 970 BCE, his reign over Judah c. 1010–970 BCE.
The Books of Samuel, 1 Kings, and 1 Chronicles are the only Old Testament sources of information on David, although the Tel Dan Stele (dated c. 850–835 BCE) contains the phrase בית דוד (bytdwd), read as "House of David", which many scholars confirm to be a likely plausible match to the existence in the mid-9th century BCE of a Judean royal dynasty called the House of David.
Depicted as a valorous warrior of great renown, and a poet and musician credited for composing much of the psalms contained in the Book of Psalms, King David is widely viewed as a righteous and effective king in battle and civil justice. He is described as a man after God's own heart in 1 Samuel 13:14 and Acts 13:22.

Global governance is failing when we need it most. The paradox of our times is that, as global problems become more complex and threatening, our global institutions lose their force as organizing frameworks for inter-state cooperation. Starting from the Lorenzetti’s painting “The Allegory of the Good and the Bad Government”, David Held, Master of University College, Durham and Professor of Politics and International Relations at Durham University, explains what are the reasons for such gridlocks. David Held is Master of University College, Durham and Professor of Politics and International Relations at Durham University. Among his most recent publications are Gridlock: Why Global Cooperation is Failing (2013), Cosmopolitanism: Ideals and Realities (2010), Globalisation/Anti-Globalisation ...
Professor David Held describes the major challenges of our time, stability in global finance, the environment and resource use, equitable world trade, and nuclear proliferation. However, a paradox lies in the increasing level of global issues in a world where politics and identity remain rooted in local and territorial divisions. It remains to be seen how global governance structures will evolve to address these issues.

No matter where I go,
I think about you
Your heart is in my soul;
Can't live without you.
And when I see you again,
There's no face that I'd rather see;
And when you're here in my arms,
There's no place that I'd rather be.
No matter where I go,
I think about you...
I think about you...
No matter where you go,
My heart is with you.
And, baby, don't you know
I'll always miss you.
And when I see you again,
There's no face that I'd rather see.
And when I'm kissing your lips,
My fantasy has finally come true.
No matter where you go,
I think about you...
I think about you...
Ooh, ooh I think about you.
Say - Is it all in my mind ?
Am I just wasting my time ?
Baby, please let me know
That you are feeling the same
You're not just playing a game
Baby, please let it show
Show me you care - oh, oh
No matter where you go,
I think about you...
I think about you...
Ooh, ooh I think about you.
I think about you.
