University (album)

University is the 1995 album by the American alternative rock band Throwing Muses, released on Sire Records and Reprise Records in the USA, and on 4AD elsewhere. It features the single "Bright Yellow Gun", the band's first national hit. The album's radio exposure led to feature articles in Rolling Stone and other major music magazines.

The album was recorded in the fall of 1993, right before lead Muse Kristin Hersh recorded her first solo album, Hips and Makers. 4AD founder and president Ivo Watts-Russell convinced Hersh to release the solo album first, in early 1994. This led to this album being delayed until 1995.

Despite all the positive notices and exposure for the album, sales were disappointingly low, and the band was dropped from Sire's roster, ending the Muses' major label years. The band has continued sporadically ever since, releasing two more albums on the independent 4AD, one in 1996 and one in 2003, before releasing 2013's Purgatory/Paradise on their own label.

Sydney Uni Rugby League Club

Sydney Uni Rugby League Club is a rugby league team currently playing in the NSW Tertiary Student Rugby League competition. There used to be a team representing the University of Sydney who played in the New South Wales Rugby Football League premiership from 1920–1937, then in the NSWRL Second Division and Metropolitan League competitions from 1963 to 1976.

History

The movement at the University of Sydney to be involved in the new game of rugby league began in 1919 with a number of players (including seven University Blues from the 1918 season) viewing a game of the new code and deciding to switch codes. As put by Herbert Vere Evatt (a final year law student and later a famous politician, jurist and President of the UN General Assembly) at the time the reasons were:

Anti-rugby league prejudice

From the very beginning, the Students (or 'Varsity' as they were also known) struggled to gain acceptance by the University Sports Association who displayed great prejudice toward those who had left the rugby union side to play rugby league.

Sri (actor)

Sri is an Indian film actor who has appeared in Tamil language films. He made his debut in Balaji Sakthivel's critically acclaimed Vazhakku Enn 18/9 (2012), before going on to appear in Mysskin's Onaayum Aattukkuttiyum (2013) and Suseenthiran's nerukku ner(2015 film) (2015).

Career

While pursuing a degree in Visual Communications, Sri appeared in the television serial Kana Kaanum Kaalangal on Vijay TV and auditioned for the lead role in Kalloori (2007), without success. Sri subsequently made his feature film debut in Balaji Sakthivel's drama thriller Vazhakku Enn 18/9 (2012) featuring newcomers, and it went on to open to unanimously positive reviews. To prepare for the role, he went to roadside eateries in Ramapuram and familiarised himself in the lifestyle of settlers. It subsequently went on to win the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Tamil, as well as Best Film at both the Vijay Awards and the Filmfare Awards, while a reviewer from The Hindu praised his performance, adding "he has large eyes that reveal the right amount of innocence." The success of the film saw him gain further offers, but was reluctant to only opt for promising scripts and turned down an opportunity to work on Nalan Kumarasamy's Soodhu Kavvum (2013) during the period. His second film, Mysskin's Onaayum Aattukkuttiyum (2013) also fetched critical acclaim, with a critic from Sify.com noting Sri delivers "a riveting performance and is an actor of substance in the making."
