State (religious life)

In Christianity, the word state may be taken to signify a profession or calling in life. St. Paul says, in I Corinthians 7:20: "Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called". States are classified in the Catholic Church as the clerical state, the religious state, and the secular state; and among religious states, again, we have those of the contemplative, the active, and the mixed orders.

Prison Break (season 3)

The third season of Prison Break, an American serial drama television series, commenced airing in the United States on September 17, 2007. Prison Break is produced by Adelstein-Parouse Productions, in association with Rat Television, Original Television Movie and 20th Century Fox Television. The season contains 13 episodes, and concluded on February 18, 2008. The season was shorter than the previous two because of the Writer's Guild strike.

Prison Break revolves around two brothers: one who has been sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit and his younger sibling, a genius who devises an elaborate plan to help him escape prison. The two brothers escape prison in the first season, but are hunted down during the second season and ultimately Michael is recaptured and sent to a Panamanian jail, Penitenciaría Federal de Sona, at the end of the second season. The third season revolves around Michael's breakout from Sona with several other inmates.

For the season, three characters are removed, and four new characters are added as series regulars. Filming continued to take place in Dallas, Texas.

Interference (band)

Interference is an Irish band that formed in 1984. They are noteworthy for their live shows and for their powerful songwriting. Fergus O'Farrel's song 'Gold' was a feature in the Irish film 'Once' which won an Oscar for best song ( Falling Slowly, by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová ) and it is one of the major songs in the Broadway show of the same name, which cast performed the song during the 2012 Tony Awards where it won 8 awards.

History

Fergus O’Farrell (vocals, piano & guitar) and James O’Leary (guitars) formed Interference during their time in Clongowes Wood College from 1983 to 1986. While in Clongowes they auditioned various friends and referrals to fill out the remaining positions in the band. Maurice Culligan from Ennis joined on Piano and Keyboards, Kevin Murphy from Cork took up the Bass Guitar and Cello and Cal MacCarthy also from Cork became the band's first drummer. Malcolm MacClancy became Fergus’ song-writing partner and the journey began.

In 1986 on leaving college the band moved to Dublin and took up residence in the old Winstanley shoe factory (presently Mother Redcaps Tavern & Market) alongside two other promising new outfits, The Hothouse Flowers and The Black Velvet Band. During this time based on the promise of a ‘demo’ they were selected to perform on the debut edition of ‘Borderline’ RTE’s (Ireland's National TV station) first youth friendly magazine show. On the strength of that performance, Fergus and the lads were commissioned by RTÉ to make an original video to be directed by non other than Gerry Stembridge, one of Irelands leading filmmakers. The resultant video of ‘The Doll’ was selected as one of the finest Irish made pop videos of the decade.

Travel

Travel is the movement of people between relatively distant geographical locations, and can involve travel by foot, bicycle, automobile, train, boat, airplane, or other means, with or without luggage, and can be one way or round trip. Travel can also include relatively short stays between successive movements.

Etymology

The origin of the word "travel" is most likely lost to history. The term "travel" may originate from the Old French word travail. According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, the first known use of the word travel was in the 14th century. It also states that the word comes from Middle English travailen, travelen (which means to torment, labor, strive, journey) and earlier from Old French travailler (which means to work strenuously, toil). In English we still occasionally use the words travail and travails, which mean struggle. According to Simon Winchester in his book The Best Travelers' Tales (2004), the words travel and travail both share an even more ancient root: a Roman instrument of torture called the tripalium (in Latin it means "three stakes", as in to impale). This link reflects the extreme difficulty of travel in ancient times. Also note the torturous connotation of the word "travailler." Today, travel may or may not be much easier depending upon the destination you choose (i.e., Mt. Everest, the Amazon rainforest), how you plan to get there (tour bus, cruise ship, or oxcart), and whether or not you decide to "rough it (see extreme tourism and adventure travel). "There's a big difference between simply being a tourist and being a true world traveler," notes travel writer Michael Kasum. This is, however, a contested distinction as academic work on the cultures and sociology of travel has noted.
