First HalfThe game began at a slow pace with both sides comfortably passing the ball around and staying in possession without being put under pressure. The South African fans were soon cheering after great team work allowed Bafana to find an opener in the 5th minute thanks to Israel based striker Terror Fanteni. Great work from Pienaar and a fine through ball allowed firecracker Bernard Parker to pounce on the ball and take it away from keeper and defender leaving Fanteni to tap in the fine slide tackle-pass.

Trustee Jim Burrows of Kennebunkport told the online news source that the board took the vote to quell rumors that they were once again considering the contract with Poland Spring. Water District Superintendent Norm Labbe who did not support the vote declaring it was a case of "politics trumping science and common sense" said it does not preclude the board from considering other extraction talks in the future according to the paper.

Nazi ghetto survivors get pensions
Philadelphia Inquirer
4 2009 Nazi ghetto survivors get pensions Associated Press BERLIN – A German federal court ruled yesterday that two Jews who were forced by the Nazis to work in ghettos have a right to a pension for their labor setting the stage for thousands of others to receive payments. The Federal Social Affairs Court in Kassel ruled that the two qualified for pensions because although they were not financially compensated for their work they received food and other items – meaning the German government was responsible for them. The two plaintiffs did cleaning and washing in a ghetto in Poland. The court did not release their names. The ruling sets a precedent for about 70000 people who were forced by the Nazis to work in ghettos or their descendants to make claims. Most would be able to claim payments of 150 euros (about $212) per month backdated to July 1 1997. The payments could add up to more than 1 billion euros according to estimates and would come out of Germany’s federal pension program.
