Goodwill in the Land of Smiles
BANGKOK, Thailand (UNHCR) Braving monsoon showers, UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie visited the Tham Hin refugee camp in Thailand on May 19. This day-long visit marked her first visit to a refugee camp in Southeast Asia.
Accompanied by the UN refugee agency’s Regional Representative, Jahanshah Assadi, she toured the camp and was briefed by the Thai authorities in the camp as well as the refugee committee and refugee elders. She visited the clinic, spoke with medics and health workers and met many refugees.
At the camp school, Jolie was welcomed by a traditional Karen dance performed by refugee children. Later, at a simple ceremony in the school, she donated a television set, video player and generator for educational and vocational training purposes, along with sports equipment. She also donated a sarong to every refugee woman in the camp.
In return, the refugee community presented Jolie with an embroidered traditional ethnic Karen dress, which she wore, much to the delight of the group. Sitting on floor mats, she distributed soccer balls to the throngs of excited children.
Tham Hin camp, established in 1997, is situated near the Thai-Myanmar border and has a population of some 9,000 predominantly ethnic Karen refugees from Myanmar.
When asked for her impressions of the camp, Jolie said the refugees were “really taking care of, and taking responsibility for, themselves … This camp is a real example of a working camp”.
The Goodwill Ambassador expressed her appreciation to the Royal Thai Government for its humanitarian policy towards refugees, and paid a special tribute to the Thai people and host communities for their compassion and generosity to refugees over the years.
“Everybody would like to go home,” she said, expressing hope that the refugees will be able to return home voluntarily in the near future under safe and dignified conditions. “To prepare them for what they are going to be, training will help,” she added, emphasising the need for proper education and vocational training for refugees in order for them to lead productive lives once they return home.
At the end of her visit to the camp, Jolie pledged US$100,000 towards vocational and educational training activities benefiting the refugee population and host community.
Prior to the Tham Hin camp, Jolie had visited camps in Pakistan, Cambodia, Sierra Leone and Tanzania. She was most recently in Osire camp in Namibia, where she donated food, tents, sports equipment, and made a private contribution towards education materials and support for the Women’s Centre.

“INSANE”
The goalkeeper’s main job is to stop any penetration of the ball into the goal.
The goalkeeper is the only player who may use his or her hands and arms to play the ball, and may do so only within the penalty area. Goalkeepers are required to wear a distinctive color jersey, separate from either team’s regular jersey color, so the referee can easily identify them. There are no other specific requirements, but goalkeepers are usually allowed to wear additional protective gear such as a padded jersey or pants. Most goalkeepers also wear gloves to protect their hands and enhance grip of the ball, and like every player on the pitch, they are required to wear shin guards.
The goalkeeper is allowed to catch the ball, and also to punch or deflect the ball away from the goal. The goalkeeper generally has a significant advantage on a ball high in the air, as he can raise his arms and play the ball before an attacker can attempt a header. When the keeper picks up the ball, he is allowed to kick it or throw it, or to place it on the ground and play it with his feet. Once the ball is picked up, it must be put back into play within a few seconds(normally 6), and the goalkeeper may not take more than 4 steps without touching the ball back to the ground; however, referees often use their discretion as long as the keeper is not obviously attempting to waste time. Once the keeper establishes possession of the ball, opposing players are not allowed to attempt to play the ball and must give the goalkeeper room to attempt a kick.
One key rule is that the goalkeeper is not allowed to pick up a ball which is kicked directly to him by one of his teammates (the keeper is still allowed to play the ball with his feet). This is known as the “back-pass” rule in Law 12 of the Laws of the Game and an infringement results in an indirect kick to the other team. The referee has some discretion in making this call; for example, a ball which is merely deflected by a teammate may still be picked up by the goalkeeper. Also, the rule applies only to a ball which is actually kicked. A ball which is headed or otherwise not kicked may be picked up by the goalkeeper without penalty. The back-pass rule has been followed in international soccer and in most professional and amateur leagues since the early 1990′s, but leagues for younger players may choose not to enforce the rule.
As the goalkeeper is usually the team’s only player who can see the entire field, they often act as an organizer of the team when it is defending, such as on a free kick or a corner kick.
In many team sports, a goalkeeper (termed goaltender, netminder, goalie, or keeper in some sports) is a designated player that is charged with directly preventing the opposite team from scoring by defending the goal. Such positions exist in hurling, association football, Gaelic football, International Rules Football, handball, ice hockey, field hockey, netball, water polo, bandy, lacrosse, floorball and a number of other sports.
Usually special rules apply to the goalkeeper that do not apply to the other players. These rules are often instituted to protect the goalkeeper, being an obvious target for dangerous or even violent actions. In certain sports, such as ice hockey and lacrosse, goalkeepers are required to wear special equipment like heavy pads and a face mask to protect their bodies from the impact of the playing object (e.g. a puck).
In some sports, goalkeepers are considered almost the same as the other players in terms of rules; in soccer, for example, the keeper is allowed to play the ball with his feet just as any other player. In other sports, goalkeepers may be limited in the actions they are allowed to take, or limited to playing within a certain area of the field; in the NHL, for example, goalkeepers may not play the puck in the restricted areas behind the net.
Der Torwart (Torhüter, Torwächter, Torsteher, Tormann oder Torfrau und Torspieler, auch Schlussmann; Schweiz: Goalie) ist ein Mitspieler einer Mannschaftssportart. Er ist der defensivste Spieler seiner Mannschaft, und seine Hauptaufgabe besteht darin, zu verhindern, dass das Spielgerät (z. B. ein Ball) ins Tor der eigenen Mannschaft gelangt. Daher wird er auch Torhüter genannt.
Torwarte haben in den meisten Sportarten Sonderrechte gegenüber anderen Spielern. Beim Fußball z. B. darf der Torwart im Strafraum die Hand benutzen. Außerdem trägt der Torwart in der Regel eine spezielle Kleidung und Ausrüstung, die ihn optisch von den anderen Spielern unterscheidet, bestimmte Schutzfunktionen erfüllt (etwa die Torwartmaske und die Torwartschienen beim Eishockey) und ihn in seiner speziellen Aufgabe unterstützt (z. B. erhöhte Fangsicherheit und Aufpralldämpfung durch spezielle Torwarthandschuhe im Eishockey).

The Giorgi Family needs a handicapped accessible house in Bennington, Vermont. Their 10 year old son, Lucas, requires complete care, a wheel chair and hospital bed. The Giorgis purchased their single story two bedroom ranch when Lucas was an infant, before his medical condition manifested fully, now the hallway, bathroom and Lucas’ room are too small to accommodate him or his medical equipment. In-home nurses are no longer permitted to work with Lucas in the Giorgi house because it is not accessible. We submitted a video to ABC’s Extreme Makeover, only to find out that Vermont is not within their “market.” The Giorgi’s modest house is for sale, but existing, affordable, and accessible housing is not available in Bennington, Vermont..
