In cooperation with the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, American University restores its historic palace on the Tahrir Square campus.

The American University in Cairo (AUC), along with Egypt’s Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, is repairing the exterior of its old building situated at Tahrir square campus. The palace that is being retouched happens to be a historical place built over 150 years ago and is the oldest structure within the campus.

According to Dr. Khaled Tarabieh, the campus architect – and an associate professor of sustainable design, the palace is quite important because it has been an important factor in the development of the university since it was established in 1919. Restoration works are pursing the objective of repairing the obviously worn-out facade which has changed dramatically since its inception in terms of both its appearance and paint colors. Furthermore, this would mean restoration of the palace's external walls, windows and other parts which have been damaged, with the help of specialized experts and contractors assigned by the tourism in egypt and Antiquities of Egypt.

Although it was initially built in the middle of the 19th century as a private residence of Khairy Pasha, the structure basing on its history was previously the office for the Ministry of Knowledge built during the time of Khedive Ismail’s reconstruction and has been included in the Egyptian Heritage Buildings Registry from the year 2007 and included in the egypt tours that you will find on Cairo Top Tours website. Due to the extravagant decoration of the building’s surfaces and pompous furnishing, the architecture represents a mix of European and local features usually found in the mansions of the well-off class built in the 19th century.

First, the undertaking will concentrate on restoring the street-facing exterior of the building, after which the focus will shift to the remaining facades. According to Dr. Tarabieh, the facade is in a distressed state with empty spaces and holes that must be blocked in, in addition to loss of its original colors and materials, including mosaics frame ornamentation that has comingled with paint. Also, intricate damaged parts will be returned to their original state.

To achieve this, the team will perform paint and stone pattern analyses using historical pictures and computer-based features of the building as well. According to Dr. Dalila El Kordani, the project consulting engineer who lectures at the American University in Cairo and Cairo University, the Khairy Pasha Palace has entailed historical and symbolic importance. As she elaborated, it has been significant to the educational landscape in Egypt because it used to be at various times, the Ministry of Knowledge, a tobacco making facility, and later on, even served as teaching space in the very first university in Egypt which is now called Cairo University.

Specifically, Dr. Elkordany noted the close connection between the palace and higher education in Egypt as a social movement that remains in its social context, especially in relation to the American University in Cairo, which continues to represent education and thought in Egypt, praising the university's place in the hierarchy of institutions with education at its core. You can go to Egypt to enjoy the best activities in cairo such as seeing the Cairo Tower

The restoration not only aims to preserve the architectural value of this palace but also serves the cause of tourism within the country—targeting tourists interested during the busiest periods, such as easter in egypt, when tourists come from all over the world.

In this way, such developments become important for generating resources for the state, which focuses not only on recreational activities but also on educational and historical sites such as the AUC Palace.

Highlighting such projects is medical tourism in egypt project, which could attract leisure and wellness tourism to Egypt, enriching the experiences available to travelers exploring the best activities in Cairo and beyond.

Dublin Beyond the Pub

There's a lot more to Dublin beyond the traditional pub. If you're willing to take a break from the Guinness trail and discover some of its lesser-known bars and pubs, you'll discover a city full of local charm and character. Neary's is among the oldest pubs in Dublin. The bar's wooden structure is lined with drawers full of ephemera. It was also an ideal drinking place for writers like WB Yeats. 1. Johnnie Fox's In the event that you're not a complete teetotaler, it would be a challenge (and nearly impossible) to spend a full day in Dublin without stopping at a bar. However, Dublin has lots more to offer other than only pints of Guinness and pub food. Johnnie Fox's is an iconic Dublin popular spot that is famous for live music and its rich historical. The pub was the home base for Michael Collins' infamous Cairo Squad during the Irish War of Independence and is a renowned drinking spot today. The small bar is reminiscent of many traditional Irish bars throughout the world and features snugs--walled-off sections for gatherings where regulars come together to share good times and banter. The bar also serves hearty food such as ham, tomato toasties, and cheese if you're seeking a break from the alcohol. 2. The Winding Stair This cozy pub is one or two steps away from Temple Bar's bustling crowds. It's got a huge variety of craft beers. It's difficult to find a seat here and the wait can be worth it. This charming pub was popular with poets WB Yeats and Samuel Beckett, who would weave Celtic folk tales into the night. It's now a place to have a good time with your closest friends. The Camden Street pub is stuffed with cozy, private spaces. The patrons love the beers and pub grub, however take note that it's expensive. Tourists love stopping by to enjoy a tea at the end of the day. For those who prefer to stay away from the crowds should take advantage of the 70-to 80-minute bus tour which makes stops at P.Macs. 3. The Dubliner The most popular attractions aren't the Blarney stone or the Cliffs of Moher that are Ireland's top attractions, but a pint of Irish stout. The Guinness Storehouse attracts 1.6 million visitors a year which is just the top of the iceberg. The Dubliner, despite its secluded location within the Temple Bar district, is an active bar serving Guinness as well as Irish whisky. The inside is traditional Dublin with wooden benches, mirrors, drawers and cosy interior. While you're here, try some craft beers on tap--the bar rotates different beer breweries' draught offerings. It's one of the only bars in town that offer a variety of locally-brewed beers. Local musicians also play traditional Irish music and create a lively environment that is filled with foot tapping and thigh-slapping.

4. The Oarsman Dublin might be an official Guinness city, but the city is more than simply pubs that have been in existence for many centuries. MVP is a contemporary take on beer and whiskey with cocktails and Irish craft brews. This 3- to 3.5 hour tour is ideal for those who love food. The tours offer a great opportunity to discover the culture and history of the city, while eating tasty meals. The area is situated between two large campus of the university, the previously overlooked Phibsborough neighborhood is coming to prominence with an increasing vibrant dining and bar scene. Its landmarks include the historical Glasnevin Cemetery, as well as a growing nightlife scene. It is also possible to sample local whiskeys. The menu also has toasties that include ham, tomatoes, and cheese. It's a great way to keep you warm on a cold Dublin morning. 5. The Back Page The casual wine bar is exactly like the way you imagine an authentic Irish pub would look like: bright wood fixtures, snugs big enough to accommodate five people comfortably, and photos of regulars on the walls. The Fox Sports show Back Page has recently celebrated its 25th anniversary. Locals are fond of this bar and it's not uncommon for the bartender to recognize most patrons by name. The food is excellent and there's an extensive assortment of craft beer options on the tap which includes Guinness. Try a ham, cheese toastie with tomato to serve with your pint. They're as comforting and warming as the name implies. A new trend is emerging in pubs, as drinkers search for healthier options. Dublin's pub culture has changed to the shifts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZNrAcQeY7Q

Mashrou' Leila: the Lebanese indie band championing Arab gay rights | Music | The Guardian

Mashrou’ Leila are giants in Lebanon. Walking through Beirut with the band on a warm afternoon, it feels like everyone is staring. We squeeze into a retro diner in the city’s bustling Hamra neighbourhood, and have hardly started talking before two women interrupt for a selfie.

As they celebrate their 10th anniversary, the four-piece are already the Arab world’s biggest indie group. They’re also probably the most successful Arabic-language band internationally, with a European tour lined up and a new compilation featuring collaborations with Róisín Murphy and Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard.

They met in 2008 at the nearby American University of Beirut, a leafy hillside campus tumbling down towards the glittering Mediterranean. They first came to this spot – where today they’re picking over greasy burgers and congealed coleslaw – to drink and calm their nerves before early gigs.

Facebook Twitter Pinterest

“We didn’t have expectations,” says drummer Carl Gerges in French-accented English. “The band wasn’t meant to last forever.” This was reflected in their name, which means “overnight project”. Yet their early songs, such as Shim El Yasmine (Smell the Jasmine), a tender ballad about abandoning a gay lover for a prescribed marriage, and the Balkan jazz-style hoedown of Raksit Leila, shot them to unexpected stardom.

It can’t be absurd to the western imagination that many liberal Arabs are inclined towards gender and sexual diversity

Their surprise was partly down to the fact that few independent Lebanese musicians had made it big before. There was no national infrastructure to support them. Everything in Mashrou’ Leila’s early years was improvised: they won the opportunity to record their debut album in a radio competition and promoted concerts by spraying graffiti in the alleyways of Beirut. When they were invited to be the first Lebanese band to headline the local Byblos festival, they had to hastily write six new songs to fill their set.

Mashrou' Leila: the Lebanese band changing the tune of Arab politics

Their appeal is particularly obvious live. Lead singer Hamed Sinno is a flamboyant performer with an electric stage presence, his formidable voice as comfortable soaring as it is flirting with Haig Papazian’s keening violin. As their sound matured into superbly sleek electropop on 2015’s Ibn El Leil, their international profile steadily grew. Yet because of their outspoken support for LGBTQ rights (Sinno is a rare out gay figure in Arab media) they have received more press for their politics than their music.

Sinno finds himself saddled with being a voice for Arabs, Muslims and the Middle Eastern LGBTQ community. What bothers him most is when western media treat the band’s progressive politics as exceptional. “It can’t be that absurd to the western imagination that there are many liberal Arabs inclined towards gender and sexual diversity,” he says hotly. “To write them off because of the oppression of free speech in their countries does everyone an extreme injustice.”

Facebook Twitter Pinterest

The band’s politics saw them banned – twice – from playing in Jordan. “They said the band is immoral, that we incite a revolutionary feeling in people,” says instrumentalist and composer Firas Abou Fakher. At their biggest concert ever, to 35,000 people in Cairo, the appearance of two rainbow flags in the crowd scandalised the Egyptian press. Rumours spread that the gig had actually been a giant orgy and that the band were in prison. The Egyptian government arrested 75 people that they suspected of being gay in the ensuing crackdown.

The band watched this happen from abroad, powerless. “Our inboxes were constantly littered with death threats and the most hateful remarks possible,” says Sinno, his eyes widening. He becomes uncharacteristically quiet. “It was fucking traumatising.” They also incurred the financial loss of being blocked from performing for their two biggest fanbases. Now looking to a western audience, they have started writing lyrics in English, but Sinno rejects the idea that this makes him less authentic. “There’s something to be said for a band from the Arab world to make it, regardless of language,” he says.

Still, the band won’t abandon their Arabic hits. At gigs abroad they see fans who don’t speak Arabic attempt to sing along with eyes closed and no idea what they’re saying. “In the current political climate, the fact that people could relate Arabic not to Islamic fundamentalism and terror, but to learning phonetics and going to a concert, it’s a kind of political victory,” says Sinno, smiling. “And it’s moving.”

Young Oon Kim decided to follow Father in 1955 – but it ended in flames and tears

“It is believed Young Oon Kim burned much of her papers at the end of her time on Earth. Some of her letters were recently discovered in HK House, not much to build an archive. It is hoped those whom she touched during her life will share their memories and material to build her own archive.”

http://www.tparents.org/Library/Unification/Talks/Dkim/dKim-121012.htm

Young Oon Kim was born in 1914 on Hwang-Hae Island in Korea.

Michael Mickler: “Young Oon Kim was a pioneer missionary, theologian and spiritual leader. She was the first Unification missionary to the United States, arriving in 1959. She incorporated the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity (HSA-UWC) in 1961 and built the church during the 1960s, sending pioneers throughout the United States and Western Europe. She published eight editions of the Principle from 1960-72 and played a major role in the purchase of Belvedere International Training Center.

“Prior to joining the Unification movement, Miss Kim was a professor of New Testament, Church History and Comparative Religion at Ewha Woman’s University [in Seoul]. She was a graduate of the Methodist seminary at Kwansei Gakuin University, Japan and a noted woman intellectual in Korean society. She did postgraduate work at Emmanuel College at the University of Toronto on a scholarship from the United Church of Canada from 1948-51 and was a sponsored observer at international Christian conferences in Germany and Switzerland. Along with four other faculty members (and fourteen students who were expelled), Miss Kim resigned from Ewha University in 1955 in protest over demands to disaffiliate from the Unification Church.”

                                     Young Oon Kim in about 1963

Farley Jones: “She was a teacher her whole life. As a teenager, she had this profound experience with God, after which she joined a Methodist church. She had profound personal experiences with Jesus after that, and while she was working in a bank, she heard a voice that said, don’t work with dead numbers, work with people. Thereafter she changed her occupation and began to teach.”

This profound experience she had as a teenager was with Rev. Yong-do Lee, who was later branded as a heretic by the mainstream denominations in Korea. Father also joined his church – but he never met Rev. Lee who died in October 1933.

Young Oon Kim arrived in Oregon on January 4, 1959 to pioneer the US. She witnessed and worked hard to publish an English edition of the Divine Principle. Her first edition was published in 1960. The 1963 edition had a blue cover. Here is the title page from that edition:

Apparently Father was very angry with her for putting her name on the cover.

Here is her 1972 edition:

Thomas Selover: “When our Unification Theological Seminary first opened in 1975, Dr. Kim became professor of Systematic Theology and World Religions, the only Unification Church member on the teaching faculty at that time. As textbooks, we used her book Unification Theology and Christian Thought and later her series on world religions; but we were most fascinated by her “off the record” insights on Divine Principle and her stories of Father in the early days of our movement. She encouraged us not to be bound by the letter of texts, but to develop our own inner spiritual life through prayer, meditation and reflection.”

Therese Stewart: “For fifteen years, Dr. Kim served as Professor of Theology at UTS in Barrytown. She taught courses in systematic theology and lectured on the world’s religions. She authored books on world religions, on modern theology, and Unification theology. She often took her meals in the faculty dining room. There she loved to answer professors’ questions about Father, his movement and the Divine Principle. She gave inspiring sermons at worship services in the seminary chapel. There, as well as in the classroom, she called all of us to the highest standard spiritually as well as academically. … Dr. Kim had a great sense of the value of time so she was always constructively occupied. Yet she always tended those who needed words of comfort, encouragement or counsel. … At the seminary, we were accustomed to meeting her on her daily walks about the campus. She loved the outdoors and always admonished us to care for and conserve the things of creation – not to waste water, electricity, food or time. She was an example of healthful living with a simple diet, daily exercise, a positive mental attitude, useful work and service to others.”

Nora Spurgin: “Dr. Kim taught us that learning to master human relationships is an essential key in a person’s religious life and spiritual growth.”

Why did Miss Kim burn her papers? One person to have asked would have been Glenda Moody. Miss Kim was very close to her.

Richard Barlow: “Unfortunately Glenda Moody took her own life some years ago, in Oregon, by means of an overdose. She had been cleaned out financially by the African brother to whom she was blessed by True Father. It is surprising how few people seem to know what happened to her. Before she died she wrote a sad letter to one of the few people she still felt cared about her, explaining why she couldn’t go on with her life. Glenda was indeed close to Miss Kim: close enough that Miss Kim confided to her some of the details of her past relationship with True Father, which Glenda passed on before her death.”

[Miss Kim was married to Mr. Ahn M.D. PhD in Korea on November 4, 1964. Apparently he was not a member. The marriage seems not to have lasted long.]

Richard: “When she was at the Unification Theological Seminary she was shocked to see the behaviour of the True Children. They were not being trained; they did not understand the Divine Principle; they did not respect the members. Hyo Jin would ride around Tarrytown on a horse or a motorbike and annoy people. She thought there would be no future for the movement if the members were not respected, but were abused.”

Hyo Jin Moon in 1975. Father is admonishing him for repeatedly riding past the group.

Richard: “David Kim had sidelined her at UTS, and she was seen as being too outspoken in her criticisms of the way things were being done at the top. David Kim had organised the installation of a system at UTS whereby the lecturers’ microphones were connected to a recording device. According to one of her students who went on to become a leading professor there, on one occasion she put her hand over the mic and confided to the class, “You don’t really believe this stuff, do you?” (She was teaching the standard DP contents of the Fall at the time.)

“Another time she remarked to a group of students that she thought True Father should go back to school (in that he was unaware of the limits of his knowledge base, and had stated more than once that he could not take advice from anyone except God).”

A former UTS student commented about Miss Kim: “She was critical of Father especially because he did not know much about Christian theology or other religions. Miss Kim was the brains behind Moon.”

Allen Tate Wood (a member from 1969-1973): “It was Miss Kim who first told me about Mr. Moon’s journeys in the spirit world. It was in the summer of 1970 shortly before I was to head off to Vietnam, Cambodia, Japan and finally Korea. I drove her down to Monticello from Washington. … I asked Miss Kim about his (Moon’s) grasp of the spirit world. She said “Well he may have been very open in the early days, but not so much now”. She went on to say that while she was accompanying him on one of his world tours (1965 I think) she had remarked his surprise, while they were in India, to discover that Buddha was not Chinese but Indian. I immediately thought, ‘well if he is talking to Jesus and Buddha and Mohammed and God all the time, why did he think that Buddha was Chinese? Was Buddha lying to Mr. Moon in the spirit world?’” LINK

Allen: “Miss Kim had always been a critical follower of the Reverend Moon. Once she had told me that she believed he had some years ago lost his ability to read minds and travel in the astral world. That was why he had to employ the three mediums now. Once she had hinted that Moon was not the messiah, but only in the line of the messiah. He was an Abraham figure, and his son or his grandson would be the true messiah. This was utter heresy, of course, and this was in the back of my mind as Miss Kim spoke.” Moonstruck, page 135

Allen: “One of the sad things that happened for us knew and loved Miss Kim – and particularly for me, since I was under her protection – was that Moon deposed her, abruptly, impatiently, bitterly, though privately. He was angry; he told her she had failed. We heard that he told her she must assume in regard to him the role of a child. She must learn everything all over again.”  Moonstruck, page 138.

In 1965 Miss Kim wrote about Father’s World Tour: “In both Athens and Cairo we saw the great civilizations which existed before Christ. The ancient Egyptians believed in the resurrection of the dead and built great tombs. Some tombs and statues were built 8,000 years ago, and many statues were erected 5,000 to 6,000 years ago. Our Leader was greatly astonished to see the huge pillars used in the Greek temples in Athens, and the ancient architecture of the pyramids and mosques built so many centuries ago. He stood by the River Nile and seemed to pray for a few minutes. The Egyptians call the river the Mother of Egypt because, in the huge desert of Sahara, the river makes part of the desert green and brings abundant food and water for the Egyptians to live.” New Age Frontiers – September 1965

It seems that Father thought the earth was 6,000 years old until that day in Egypt. A review of his pre-1965 sermons confirms this.

Richard: “Later at UTS David Kim told Miss Kim that “Father did not want to see her.” So she did not go to see him. Then Father asked where she was… so she went.

“Late in her life, Miss Kim reportedly said that she deeply regretted that she had not spoken out about where she felt things had gone wrong.

“Nora Spurgin and Betsy Jones visited her and found her collapsed in her room at UTS. She had no food. David Kim was in charge at Barrytown but he did not treat her well.”

She was asked by Father to leave the US and return to Korea.

Richard: “I think it is true to say that Young Oon Kim left America reluctantly and with sadness.”

A cake with the words ‘In remembrance of all you have done �� January 4, 1959, through February 29, 1988’ was brought out in her honor, and she also received a monetary gift donated by brothers and sisters in the United States.

Richard: “There was a collection for her as she was leaving, which was given to her in a brown envelope. When she opened it she commented that it was not very much.”

When she first arrived in Oregon in 1959 George Norton was one of the first people to support her. He stayed with her and brought her food. As she left the US for the last time it was George who drove her to the airport on the west coast. She cried as she left.

                                        Young Oon Kim in 1988

Miss Kim was already not well when she left. She went to Isshin Hospital in Tokyo where she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

David Hose: “Over the years I’ve had numerous opportunities to meet with Dr. Kim, most recently at the Seminary, where she lived in an apartment on one of the lower floors during her many years of teaching there. I’ve come to know her as a person of incredible depth and heart. She doesn’t always express it outwardly. I think Americans are more accustomed to people who just bring it all out in the open…”

Farley: … Miss Kim said, “‘If you passionately love people, God comes so close.’ I think that this was her most frequently made point over the past five years of her life. She would say things like, ‘Position is not important, your identity, or what you have accomplished. What is important is love for other people.’ And this point she iterated and reiterated, because, I think, it was the conclusion that she came to reflecting on her own life.

“Her passing on September 30 [1989] was not an occasion to grieve. I went to Korea beforehand to visit her and to say good-bye. She was in pain and worn down by her illness.”

Richard: Another colleague from UTS “spoke to her on the phone two weeks before she died. It seems clear that she no longer regarded herself as a member, and that she had lost her faith in True Father. There is no record of a seunghwa. I based my conclusions on what was said during that call.”

Today’s World December 1989 page 17: In Korea a “remembrance ceremony” was held on October 2. It was attended by Dr. Edwin Ang.

There is no mention or record of a seunghwa for Young Oon Kim in the Today’s World’s five page feature on her. There are no photographs of a seunghwa anywhere to be found. It seems Father said nothing and did not attend any events in her honor.

There is a mention of a seunghwa held in Korea in the UTS publication, The Cornerstone. Since the date is given as October 2, it seems The Cornerstone is being deceptive in describing the same event as a “seunghwa” when it was a “remembrance ceremony”.

Her grave is simple; there is no UC symbol.

Moon and Young-oon Kim both followed Yong-do Lee

He was known as ‘Mun Yesu – Jesus Moon’ and the ‘physical Jesus’ in the 1950s.

Young-Oon Kim: “Our Leader might be coming…”

Young Oon Kim: “After graduating from high school, I took a job as a bank teller in a small town. One day I noticed a large sign in front of a large Korean Methodist church. It said there would be a revival meeting there with a Rev. Young Do Lee, which was to be conducted throughout the week.

That evening, out of curiosity, I decided to see what this meeting was all about. Although I arrived on time, I had to squeeze in, because hundreds of people were already there. Rev. Lee was a young Methodist minister who was a religious genius and also very rich in heart. He had studied in a liberal Methodist seminary in Seoul. As he preached, I could feel the Holy Spirit through his fiery words. Yes, there was judgment in the preaching, as he called everyone to repent, but it was supported by an ardent love of God that was most evident in his prayers. The hearts of everyone present were melted. Ministers, elders, deacons, doctors, lawyers, businessmen, teachers–men and women alike–cried in repentance and in deep humility.

Actually, Rev. Lee was a humble, meek, and reticent man, but once he stood up in the pulpit, he was a most eloquent, logical, and yet dynamic preacher. But there was nothing fanatic in him. After the meeting was over, he would kneel down on the floor and continue to pray. Many also remained with him and prayed. Maybe 15 or 20 would stay all night to pray. I was one of them. Perhaps around midnight, someone would stand up and speak in tongues, someone would prophesy, or someone would go into a trance. I had never seen such things before. Rev. Lee generated an awesome, powerful atmosphere. He was also a man of deep compassion for others. If he saw a beggar, he would search his pockets and give everything he had to him, and then, having no bus-fare, he would have to walk all the way home.

After Rev. Lee left at the end of the week, the congregation, which had tasted so deeply of the Holy Spirit, craved more. But there was no other minister who could bring such a high spiritual atmosphere, so naturally the members longed for him. The other ministers in town became jealous of Rev. Lee and started denouncing him. Soon, ministers of Methodist and Presbyterian churches all over Korea came to charge him with causing division within their churches. Eventually he was condemned as a heretic, stoned and beaten, and forbidden to preach. He died a year later, at the age of 33, of tuberculosis.

Today, ironically, more than 50 years after his death, Rev. Lee is held in high regard throughout Korea as an authentic messenger of God. Rev. Lee left with me a lasting image of a true disciple and messenger of Christ. I have cherished my brief experience with him to the present day.” LINK

Among Christians in Korea there is still considerable debate about Rev. Yong-do Lee. Some see him as a precursor to many Korean cults, including the Unification Church.
