Title: Fur flies over fickle love of Ozzy the catREWORD IT

you understand them.

Should cats be allowed to choose their owners? A bitter row has erupted in public over a majestic Maine

Coon cat that started spending most of its time enjoying the high life away from home.

On a brisk morning in West London, Ozzy the cat slinks his way down the street. He is heading home. But

which home will he go to today?

Ozzy has a clear choice. He can go to his official residence and his legal “parents” John Hall and his wife

Jackie, a children’s art therapist. Very decent people. Perfectly nice ironing to lie on. Regular meals.

Or he can go to the rather comfy hotel he has discovered just 10 doors down the street.

In August 2018, the Halls realised that Ozzy’s forays were emphatically more than occasional when they

noticed his collar had gone. In its place was a new one bearing Nicola Lesbirel’s phone number.

This declaration of war triggered a complex and bitter neighbourhood row, culminating in a £20,000

court settlement.

And Ozzy? On the advice of a vet, he is confined to barracks for several months to re-adjust before he is

let outside again – and then only with a GPS collar fitted.

The drama has sharply divided cat lovers.

“Poor Ozzy. I think he’s entitled to choose where he wishes to be, and it’s sad that humans have to be so

controlling,” said one.

“I don’t agree,” retorted another angrily. “This seems a clear case of cat grooming.”

Beneath it all lies one of the big questions of existence: should cats be allowed to choose their owners?

Paws for thought

No, say those who believe that law is the ultimate authority. Legally, a cat is a possession like a car or a

pair of earrings. If you own a cat, there are laws that forbid anyone else claiming it is theirs – for

example, by removing a collar and replacing it with their own.

Yes, say those who believe that truth is more important than the law. The truth is that a cat – unlike a

dog – still has a wild soul. No human has the right to “own” this wildness. We cannot own the waves or

the wind.

Title: Esports industry set to break $1bn barrierREWORD IT

Read the title and source and highlight any words you are unsure of. Use powerthesaurus.org to help

you understand them.

An addictive waste of time or a serious competitive sport? After a US teenager won $3m in the first-ever

Fortnight World Cup on Sunday, the debate over the future of esports has exploded.

Kyle Giersdorf steps up onto the winner’s podium. He holds the trophy above his head. At 16 years old, he

triumphantly announces that “the grind has paid off”.

On the giant screens above, 20,000 cheering fans and thousands more watching live broadcasts see his

family embrace him. As of this moment, he is $3m richer. “Ladies and gentlemen,” the announcer

bellows, “Your Fortnite World Champion!”

This week, the esports industry — which is small but growing rapidly — is expected to break the $1bn

barrier by the end of this year, and grow its global audience to 545 million.

Yet it has struggled to be seen as a mainstream sport — when over 40 million players across the world had

competed in the online qualifying rounds.

To these players, gaming is not just a hobby. Many teenagers train for over eight hours a day, managing

social media accounts, and earning millions by competing in global tournaments.

But in 2018, at the height of the Fortnite craze, the World Health Organisation officially classed gaming

addiction as a mental illness.

Last month, British MPs asked if game developers did enough to prove the age of players or encourage

them to take breaks.

Are they a serious sport or a waste of time?

Absolutely serious, say some. Players compete in regional and international competitions, streamed live

around the world. The biggest teams live together, training for hours a day to improve their skills. Top

players can perform up to 500 “actions” a minute. It is old-fashioned to say that esports are not “real”

sports.

How ridiculous, argue others. Fornite may have millions of players around the world, but for how long? If

your only skill is moving your thumbs quickly, you’re not athlete. Great sports require greatest of mind,

body and soul. To compare an esports champion to Lionel Messi is a joke.

Extract:I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells. And some of you have come from areas where your quest -- quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

Title – Quirky design house lets the customers also be designers By Lauren Izso JANUARY 6, 2020, 8:00 AM

What is the Jumbo and why is it better than other existing products?

What is the Egguins and why has It been described as ‘the best thing since sliced

Year 8 DT ”Thinking Harder” Week 6: 11 – 15 May

Quirky Israeli brand Peleg Design offers customers a chance to send ideas online. But that’s only one source of Shahar Peleg’s inspiration.

From optical illusion flower vases to playful elephant-shaped cutlery drainers, Shahar Peleg wants his products to bring his customers joy, but first and foremost to fulfill a need. How does he figure out what those needs are? “In many ways,” the designer and founder of the brand tells ISRAEL21c.

ConclusionsHow are Peleg different to other design companies?

Egguins, one of Peleg Design’s cute and functional creations.

Bag Bunny was inspired by a customer’s suggestion.

Peleg Design’s Magnetic Vase is a best seller.

Jumbo, a cutlery holder that drains into the sink.

One of those ways is from his customers. “Some of the ideas came to us while daydreaming, some in the shower, some we woke up with and some just came to us by email,” reads Peleg Design website’s “Suggest an Idea” section. People from all over the world reach out, he says. “Once in a while we get a great idea, and we pay royalties to the designers or inventors. It’s really amazing because a lot of people have a lot of ideas,” Peleg says. For example, the Bag Bunny, a magnetic bunny-shaped tool for easily opening plastic packaging, was inspired by a customer suggestion.

Founded in 2005 and based in Tel Aviv, Peleg Design’s online store offers around 100 unique products that stem from everyday needs, each with quirks, twists or optical illusions that Peleg describes as “magical.” Nothing, he says, is really what it seems. The product that kicked off the company’s success was a vase Peleg designed for his own wedding in 2005. These “floating” vases are anchored by magnetic bases hidden underneath the tablecloth.

To this day, the Magnetic Vase set is one of Peleg Design’s best sellers. “It was a huge hit,” he says. “That’s what really began to generate business.” Another universal problem Peleg wanted to solve was grime building up at the bottom of a cutlery drainer. His answer was Jumbo, an elephant-shaped cutlery holder that drains water out of its trunk, directly into the sink.

Peleg says function is key, and design is secondary to usefulness. But still, he hopes his customers will fall in love with his “cute” designs. His newest item, the Egguins, is a great example of that. The penguin-shaped eggholder makes it easy to remove hot hard-boiled eggs from boiling water and store them in the fridge — and also makes the eggs much cuter. One comment on Peleg Design’s Instagram page calls the item “the best thing since sliced bread.”

Many of Peleg’s products are made from plastic but they are meant to last. Sensitive to environmental issues, he explains that he wants his customers to develop an emotional connection to the items and use them for as long as possible before throwing them away.

Passion and professionGrowing up, Peleg dreamed of being an astronaut, but he would eventually find his passion in a different form of exploration: design. “It started off as a one man show,” he says. Peleg studied interior design at the Holon Institute of Design. A class project made him realize he had an eye for creating quirky but useful knick-knacks. He had made a wine-bottle holder that seemed to defy gravity. He was able to sell a few even before graduating. “It started from selling one product in two or three stores in Tel Aviv,” Peleg tells ISRAEL21C. “It’s now become both my passion and my profession.”

EXTRACT – Cinco de mayo

Cinco de Mayo, or the fifth of May, is a holiday that celebrates the date

of the Mexican army’s May 5, 1862 victory over France at the Battle of

Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War. The day is also known as Battle of

Puebla Day. Cinco de Mayo is not Mexican Independence Day, a popular

misconception. Instead, it commemorates a single battle. Cinco de Mayo

is not observed throughout the whole of Mexico. It is primarily celebrated

only in Puebla de Los Ángeles, with smaller celebrations in other parts as

well.

While it is a relatively minor holiday in Mexico, in the United

States, Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration of Mexican

culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-American

populations.

Cinco de Mayo was first celebrated in the United States in 1863 in

Southern California. The celebration was in support of solidarity with

Mexico against French rule. By the 1930s the holiday became an

opportunity to celebrate Mexican identity, promote ethnic consciousness

and build community solidarity. In the 1950s and 60s, the holiday

transformed as a way to honour Mexican-American pride. The holiday

began to take on corporate sponsors and become commercialized.

Overall argument -

Extract –The British industrial revolution stands out as a pivotal moment in human history. But when we think about the men, women and children who, with their strong backs and nimble fingers, did the most to power it, we tend to feel that there is less to celebrate.Historians have painted those industrial times in a very dark hue: they highlighted the introduction of new working patterns that forced men to work at the relentless pace of the machines; children forced into factories and down mines at ever-younger ages; families squeezed into dark, disease-ridden cities; and no future but the workhouse for those who slipped through the net.Historians have turned their attention to the devastating impact of the industrial revolution on the working poor.On the other hand, the industrial revolution increased the amount of work available – for the skilled and the unskilled, for the young and the old. As manufacturing expanded, young men and women poured into cities from the countryside to work in the new factories.The most obvious consequence of increased work opportunities was higher family incomes; for those living close to the breadline this was a very welcome development.The industrial revolution ushered in revolutionary social change, and working people certainly shared in the benefits.

Joe is technically not a PE teacher but he has a whole host of other qualifications to be proud of and he has done plenty of work with people of all ages. Wicks is a fitness coach and he calls himself "a man on a mission to rescue people from the awful dieting industry", not wanting to see people go hungry on poorly-planned diets. He has been a personal trainer for five years and has a 1st degree in sports science, so he definitely knows what he is talking about.

Joe has also taught for three years as an online nutrition coach, saying he can transform someone's body in just 90 days. Fans have fallen in love with his online PE sessions, during which he dresses up and creates fun moves especially for children.

Joe has a number of plans to cater for different groups including a veggie 90-day plan and a graduate plan for people to build on existing progress. The Telegraph reported Wicks wanted to be "the Jamie Oliver of kids' fitness" as he has big plans to get the country's children moving. He was due to take part in a tour around schools, inspiring youngsters to stay active and eat healthily, but his plans were put on hold as schools closed following the coronavirus lockdown.

Instead he set up PE with Joe, a revolutionary online PE class for children and their families to take part in during isolation. The fitness classes, which start from 9am every morning and are half an hour long, have gone down a storm with families across the world.Joe is aware people of all ages and abilities have been taking part in his online PE sessions and he has catered for everyone. The classes are not just aimed at children, as parents have been joining in too, as well as people with limited mobility.

But Joe has been getting creative with his exercises and has introduced some fun and quirky moves especially for children. Fan-favourites so far have been the "Spider-Man" lunge and the "bunny bounces", during which Joe uses his hands to create bunny ears. He has plenty of charm and is great when it comes to interacting with children and their families. Joe has been pausing every now and then to read out messages from fans and do shout-outs to those who are taking part across the globe.

French Reference - https://frenchmoments.eu/may-day-in-france-la-fete-du-travail

EXTRACT – La fête du travail en France (1st May)

May Day in France is symbolised by lilies of the valley, commonly known as ‘muguet’ inFrench. It is a woodland plant found in the cool temperate parts of France. Theflowering stems are easily recognisable with its two leaves. The sweetly scented whiteflowers are bell-shaped and grow in late spring, around the end of April and beginningof May in shady locations.

Tradition has it that the flower came into being from Eve’s tears when she was forcedto leave the Garden of Eden. Another tradition confers the existence of the flower tothe Virgin Mary as a result of the tears she cried at the Crucifixion. Traditionally, lilyof the valley is sold everwhere on streets across France on the first of May and is oneof the symbols of springtime and of good luck. May Day in France is also known inFrance as the Fête du Travail (Labour Day). It is a bank holiday; hence most shops andconvenience stores are closed. It is the perfect time of the year for demonstrators tocampaign for and celebrate workers’ rights.

The tradition of offering lilies of the valley dates back to 1st May 1561, when KingCharles IX of France received a lily of the valley as a lucky charm. He created thetradition when he decided to offer a lily of the valley each year to the ladies of hiscourt. At the beginning of the 20th century, it became custom on the 1st of May, togive a bunch of lily of the valley to relative, friends or work colleagues. The flowersare a more general token of appreciation between people. A school pupil might offer abunch of lilies to his/her favourite teacher.

The French State tolerates individuals and workers’ organisations to sell them free oftaxation. When driving around the country, it is not rare to see roadside stands orpeople selling wild lilies previously picked fresh in the forests. For families living nearthe countryside and forests, it is a rather good afternoon outing on Sunday (or LabourDay) gathering a beautifully fragranced bunch of lily of the valley. Back home, thebunch is put in a vase to decorate and perfume the whole room.

Year 8 RE ”Thinking Harder” Week 6: 11-15 May

Extract about ‘Our Lady of Fatima’ (Britannica.com)

May 13 marks the anniversary of the first of six apparitions of the Virgin Mary to three shepherd children of Fátima, Portugal. Lucia dos Santos (aged 9) and her cousins Francisco and Jacinta Marto (aged 8 and 6, respectively) were tending sheep in central Portugal in 1917 when they had a vision of a woman surrounded by light who identified herself as the Lady of the Rosary. She exhorted them to pray the rosary for world peace and, over the course of her six apparitions, gave the children three "secrets." She promised a miracle in October, and on the 13th of that month a crowd of perhaps 70,000 people witnessed a "miraculous solar phenomenon," in which the Sun appeared to fall toward Earth. After initially questioning the authenticity of the children's visions, the Vatican accepted them as appearances of the Virgin Mary (Our Lady of the Holy Rosary of Fátima), and Fátima became the location of one of the greatest Marian shrines in the world, visited by thousands of pilgrims each year.

Although Lucia dos Santos would later become a Carmelite nun and live to the age of 97, Francisco and Jacinta Marto died as children as a result of the influenza pandemic of 1918–19. The pious siblings were beatified in 2000 by Pope John Paul II, making them the youngest non-martyred children to be beatified in the history of the Roman Catholic Church. They were canonized as saints by Pope Francis in 2017 to coincide with the 100th anniversary of their visions.
