Troy (Ancient Greek: Τροία, Troia and Ἴλιον, Ilion, or Ἴλιος, Ilios; Latin: Trōia and Īlium;Hittite: Wilusa or Truwisa;Turkish: Truva) was a city situated in what is known from Classical sources as Asia Minor, now northwest Anatolia in modern Turkey, located south of the southwest end of the Dardanelles/Hellespont and northwest of Mount Ida at Hisarlık. It is the setting of the Trojan War described in the Greek Epic Cycle and especially in the Iliad, one of the two epic poems attributed to Homer. Metrical evidence from the Iliad and the Odyssey seems to show that the name Ἴλιον (Ilion) formerly began with a digamma: Ϝίλιον (Wilion). This was later supported by the Hittite form Wilusa.
A new capital called Ilium was founded on the site in the reign of the Roman Emperor Augustus. It flourished until the establishment of Constantinople and declined gradually during the Byzantine era.
In 1865, English archaeologist Frank Calvert excavated trial trenches in a field he had bought from a local farmer at Hisarlık, and in 1868, Heinrich Schliemann, a wealthy German businessman and archaeologist, also began excavating in the area after a chance meeting with Calvert in Çanakkale. These excavations revealed several cities built in succession. Schliemann was at first skeptical about the identification of Hisarlik with Troy, but was persuaded by Calvert and took over Calvert's excavations on the eastern half of the Hisarlik site, which was on Calvert's property. Troy VII has been identified with the Hittite city Wilusa, the probable origin of the Greek Ἴλιον, and is generally (but not conclusively) identified with Homeric Troy.
Troy Weston Waters (born 23 April 1965 in London, England) is a retired light middleweight boxer and member of the Australian National Boxing Hall of Fame. Waters fought for the world title three times during his career, losing to Gianfranco Rosi, Terry Norris and Simon Brown.
Waters turned pro in 1984 and won his first five professional fights including a win over future IBF super middleweight champ Chul Baek for the OPBF light middleweight title. Waters won a twelve round decision.
He won the Commonwealth title knocking out Lloyd Hibbert in the fourth round. In his 16th fight and on a nine fight win streak he fought Gianfranco Rosi in Italy for the IBF light middleweight title.
His second attempt at a world title came six wins later in 1993 when he lost to WBC light middleweight champ Terry Norris in three rounds. The second round of his fight with Norris was named The Ring's round of the year for 1993. Waters knocked down Norris in the second round, but lost by TKO in the third round.

We traveled to Albufeira to meet up with José Rosado & Ivo Duarte from the Algarve Paragliding Association. Rodrigo got in touch with them and surprised Troy, his aim was to set him up to face his fear of heights.

Don Lane's shortlived go at Late Night television from the TEN Network. This is a full episode, ads removed due to being uploaded seperately. This episode features surfer Tom Carroll and Boxer Troy Waters.
The last album Stan recorded in his lifetime, and it sounds as fresh and wonderful today as it did when first released. It's a marvel of truly exceptional song-writing, stunning vocals, and fantastic musicianship from his band. Exceptionally well produced and remastered too. Enjoy this jewel. It's my favourite Stan Rogers album. A N D : please buy the Stan Rogers cd albums - they are available (including this one) on Amazon, from Borealis Records and other major online retailers.

Vrazdeni, nasili, brutalita kolem nas
Nikdo to nezmeni, nikdo na to nema cas
Vstavej a uc se nepratele zabijet
Silnejsi prezije, takovy je proste svet
Mel jsi dobre srdce, v dusi misto pro jine
Pomohl jsi v nouzi - rikal sis : "A proc ne?"
Ceho ses vsak dockal - zivot ti pres hubu dal
Ted to ale zkonci - na druhou cestu ses dal
Ref: Tak vstavej a uc se, strasne malo casu mas
Tak vstavej a uc se, vsechno je to davno v nas
Tak vstavej a uc se, silu v sobe objevis
Tak vstavej a uc se, snad se smrti nebojis
Jsi obet, tak kouke co zivot s tebou udelal
Byls dobrej, uz nejsi, radeji ses toho vzdal
Tva duse - ted cerna - zavrhla svedomi
Tve srdce uz krasu davno vnimat neumi
