Development and history (More) ####Reuploaded#### DOWNLOAD LINK http://www.patricksaviation.com/in/6426?i=INx The Mirage 2000 is a French-built multirole fighter jet manufactured by Dassault Aviation. Development and history The Mirage 2000 was developed by Dassault-Breguet for the Armée de l'Air as an alternative to the swing-wing Avion de Combat Futur. After the latter was cancelled in 1975 due to its growing cost and complexity, Dassault offered the Mirage 2000 as an alternative. Development of this aircraft would also give the company a competitor to the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon, which had defeated the Dassault Mirage F1 in a contest for a new fighter for the air forces of Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands and Norway. The prototype made its first flight in March 10, 1978 with test pilot Jean Coreau at the controls. The first production example flew in November 20, 1982 and the aircraft went into operational service in 1984. Characteristics Using the concept of the delta wing interceptor seen on the Dassault Mirage III, Dassault built a new design but still using a delta wing. This configuration is not ideal with regard to maneuverability, low-altitude flight, and distance required for take-off and landing, but has advantages in high-speed flight characteristics, simplicity of construction, low radar signature and internal volume. Design features French Mirage 2000C fully armed. French Mirage 2000C fully armed. * Low-set thin delta wing with cambered section, 58 degrees leading-edge sweep and moderately blended root; area-ruled; capable of carrying four air-to-air missiles. * The aircraft's center of lift was moved in front of its center of gravity, giving the fighter a degree of instability that enhances maneuverability. * A runway arresting hook or fairing for a brake parachute can be fitted under the tail. The landing roll was reduced by robust carbon brakes. The backward-retracting, steerable nose gear features dual wheels, while the main gear features single wheels and retracts inward into the wings. * An airbrake is fitted on top of each wing in an arrangement very similar to that of the Mirage III. A noticeably taller tailfin allows the pilot to retain control at higher angles of attack, assisted by small strakes mounted along each air intake. * First fighter jet with negative static stability. Structure Multi-spar metal wing; elevons have carbon-fiber skins with AG5 light alloy honeycomb cores; carbon-fiber/light alloy honeycomb panel covers avionics bay; most of the tailfin and all of the rudder are skinned with boron/epoxy/carbon; the rudder has a light alloy honeycomb core. Dassault Mirage 2000C at Paris Air Show 2007 Dassault Mirage 2000C at Paris Air Show 2007 and easier handling. Landing gear The aircraft uses a retractable tricycle type landing gear by Messier-Bugatti, with twin nosewheels and a single wheel on each main gear. Hydraulic retraction, nosewheels rearward, main units inward. Oleo-pneumatic shock absorbers. Electrohydraulic nosewheel steering (+/-45 degrees). Manual disconnect permits nosewheel unit to caster through 360 degrees for ground towing]. Cockpit The fighter is available as a single-seat or two-seat multi-role fighter. The aircraft has hands-on-throttle-and-stick (HOTAS) control. The pilot sits on a SEMB Mark 10 zero-zero ejection seat, a license-built version of the British Martin-Baker Mark 10. The instrument panel is dominated by a Heads Up Display (HUD) with the VMC 180 radar screen located centrally below it. To the lower left is a stores management panel. Above the stores management panel are the navigation instruments and altimeter. The right half of the instrument panel houses the engine and systems displays. Located on the left side of the cockpit, just ahead of the throttle, are controls for the communications equipment, including the Have Quick secure radio. Avionics Standard avionics for the Mirage-2000B/C include: * Sagem ULISS 52 inertial navigation system (INS), TRT radio altimeter. * Sextant TMV-980 data display system (VE-130 head-up and VMC-180 head-down) (two head-down in 2000N/D). The combined head-up/head-level display is collimated at infinity, and presents data relating to flight control, navigation, target engagement and weapon firing. Sensor and system management data is presented on two colored lateral displays. * Dassault Electronique Type 2084 central digital computer, Digibus digital databus (2084 XR in 2000D) and Sextant Avionique Type 90 air data computer. * LMT NRAI-7A IFF transponder, IO-300-A marker beacon receiver, TRT ERA 7000 V/UHF com transceiver, TRT ERA 7200 UHF or EAS secure voice communications. Radar * Thomson-CSF RDM multi-mode radar or Dassault Electronique/Thomson-CSF RDI pulse-Doppler radar for Mirage 2000C/D, each with operating range of 54 nm (100 km / 62 miles). * Dassault/Thales Antilope 5 Radar with terrain avoidance capability for Mirage 2000N Nuclear Strike variant. * The Thales multimode RDY (Radar Doppler Multitarget) developed for Mirage 2000-5. Countermeasures * Thales Serval Radar warning receiver (RWR) with antennas on the wingtips and on the rear of the top of the tailfin. * Dassault Sabre RF jammer in a pod below the bottom of the tailfin, with an antenna in a fairing on the front of the tailfin. * Dassault Eclair dispenser system under the tail. This was eventually replaced by a pair of Matra Spirale dispensers, one fitted on an extension behind the rear of each wingroot, giving a total capacity of 224 cartridges. Engines Mirage 2000 taking off with full afterburner. Mirage 2000 taking off with full afterburner. The Mirage 2000 is equipped with a SNECMA M53-5 or SNECMA M53-P2 turbofan engine according to the different Mirage 2000 versions, which provides 64 kN of thrust dry and 98 kN in afterburner. The air intakes are fitted with an adjustable half-cone-shaped centerbody, which provides an inclined shock of air pressure for highly efficient air intake. Total internal fuel capacity is 3978 liters in Mirage 2000C and E, and 3904 liters in Mirage 2000B, N, D and S. There are also provisions for a jettisonable 1300-liter centerline fuselage fuel tank and for a 1700-litre drop tank under each wing. Armament and payload The Mirage 2000 can carry up to 6.3 tons (13,900 lb) of stores on nine pylons, with two pylons on each wing and five under the fuselage. A fixed removable refuelling probe can be attached in front of the cockpit, offset slightly to the right of center. Primary armament of the Mirage 2000 includes: * Matra Super 530 medium-range semi-active radar-guided air-to-air missile on the inboard wing pylons. * Matra Magic short-range infrared-seeking AAM on the outboard wing pylons. * The Mirage 2000C can carry air-to-ground stores such as the Matra 68 mm rocket pods, iron bombs, and cluster bombs. Built-in armament consisted of twin DEFA 554 (now GIAT 30-550 F4) 30 mm revolver-type cannons with 125 rounds each. The cannons have selectable fire rates of 1,200 or 1,800 rounds per minute. Variants Mirage 2000C French Mirage 2000C French Mirage 2000C The first Mirage 2000 to go into service was the single-seat Mirage 2000C interceptor. There were four single-seat prototypes, including the initial Mirage 2000 prototype. The first production Mirage 2000C flew in November 1982. Deliveries began in 1983. The first operational squadron was formed in 1984, the 50th anniversary of the French Air Force. A total of 124 Mirage-2000Cs were obtained by the AdA. The first 37 Mirage 2000Cs delivered were fitted with the Thomson-CSF RDM (Radar Doppler Multifunction) and were powered by the SNECMA M53-5 turbofan engine. The 38th Mirage 2000C had an upgraded SNECMA M53-5 P2 turbofan engine. The Radar Doppler Impulse (RDI) built by Thales did not enter service until 1987. Latest upgrades include: * Non-Cooperative Target Recognition (NTCR) mode in RDI Radar allows identification of airborne targets not responding on IFF. * Integration with the new Matra MICA (Missile d'Interception, de Combat et d'Autodefense) IR heat-seeking missile. The radar-guided version of the MICA will not be able to support earlier versions of the Mirage 2000. Mirage 2000B Mirage 2000B nose close up. Mirage 2000B nose close up. The Mirage 2000B is two-seat operational conversion trainer variant which performed its initial flight on October 11, 1980. The AdA acquired 30 Mirage 2000Bs, with all three of the AdA fighter wings obtaining a few each for conversion training. Mirage 2000N and 2000D Main article: Dassault Mirage 2000N/2000D The Mirage 2000N is the nuclear strike variant which was intended to carry the Aerospatiale Air-Sol Moyenne Portee (ASMP) nuclear stand-off missile. Initial flight tests of two prototypes began on February 3, 1983, and the Mirage 2000N entered operational service in 1988. A total of 75 were built. The Mirage 2000D is a dedicated conventional attack variant developed from the Mirage 2000N. Initial flight of the Mirage 2000D prototype, a modified Mirage 2000N prototype, was on February 19, 1991. The first flight of a production aircraft occurred March 31, 1993, and service introduction followed in April 1995. A total of 86 were built. Mirage 2000-5 By the late 1980s, the Mirage 2000 was beginning to age compared with the latest models of U.S. F-16 fighters, so Thomson-CSF began work on a privately funded update of the Mirage 2000C which was to be named the Mirage 2000-5. A two-seat Mirage 2000B prototype was extensively modified as the first Mirage 2000-5 prototype, and it first flew on October 24, 1990. A Mirage 2000C prototype was then reworked to a similar standard, making its initial flight on April 27, 1991. Features: * The Thales multimode RDY (Radar Doppler Multitarget). The RDY radar is the heart of the upgrade, providing true multitarget tracking. It can simultaneously detect up to 24 targets and track the eight highest-priority threats while guiding four MICA EMs to different targets simultaneously. * The updated ICMS 2 countermeasures suite and the Samir DDM missile warning system. ICMS 2 incorporates a receiver and associated signal processing system in the nose for detection of hostile missile command data links. The aircraft's self-protection equipment can be interfaced to a new programmable mission-planning and post-mission analysis ground system. * A new glass cockpit layout borrowed from the Rafale program with three-color MFDs, a dual-linked wide-angle HUD / head-level display, and HOTAS controls. The cockpit is NVG-compatible. * Targeting systems included the Thales TV/CT CLDP laser designation pod which provides the capability to fire laser-guided weapons by day and night. * A two-seater version was developed as well. The back-seater has the HUD but not the associated head-level display, and as with first-generation two-seaters, there are no built-in cannon (although cannon pods can be carried). * The Mirage 2000-5 can also carry the oversized drop tanks developed for the Mirage 2000N, greatly extending its range. In 1993, the AdA decided to upgrade 37 of their existing Mirage 2000s to the 2000-5 specification as a stopgap before the arrival of the Rafale in AdA service. The upgraded aircraft were redesignated Mirage 2000-5F, and became operational in 2000. They retained the old countermeasures system with the Serval/Sabre/Spirale units and did not receive the ICMS 2 system. The AdA is now considering upgrades for the type, including the MIDS datalink, MICA IR support, and the Thales Topsight helmet-mounted display / sighting system. Mirage 2000-5 Mark 2 Dassault extended the improvements of the Mirage 2000-5 a bit further with the Mirage 2000-5 Mark 2, which is an enhanced, fully multirole version of the Mirage 2000-5. It is currently the most advanced version of the Mirage 2000. Features: * Thales RDY-2 radar. The RDY-2 radar is similar in configuration to the original RDY, but features two new air-to-ground modes, including a high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging mode with a moving target indicator (MTI) capability to provide an all-weather, day/night targeting capability. The radar features low-probability-of-intercept (LPI) operation, with the output pattern varying in a seemingly random pattern that prevents an adversary RWR from recognizing that it has been targeted. * The high-power Modular Data Processing Unit (MDPU) designed for the Rafale. * A new Thales Totem 3000 INS with ring-laser gyros and GPS capability, providing much greater accuracy, higher reliability, and shorter alignment time replaces the older ULISS 52 system. It works in conjunction with a terrain-following system. * An improved, classified ICMS 3 digital countermeasures suite. * An on-board oxygen generation system (OBOGS). * The cockpit was updated as well, retaining the same general layout but with larger color displays and other modernizations. The Thales Topsight helmet-mounted display / sighting system is offered as an option. * The Mirage 2000-5 Mark 2 includes a datalink for the targeting of MICA ER missiles and can carry the Damocles targeting pod. * Future Upgrades: Thales AIDA visual identification pod; technology used in the Rafale will be also integrated into the Mirage 2000, including infrared and optical sensors for IFF and targeting. It will be used by AdA Mirage 2000-5Fs. Further development of the second-generation type is expected to include a GPS receiver, MIDS datalink, and unspecified long-range sensors. Topsight E helmet-mounted sight Topsight E displays critical information, protects the pilot, and provides communications. In the display of critical information, Topsight E has three main functions: * Visual target designation by transmitting the target's line of sight to the nav/attack system. Used with modern missiles, Topsight allows pilots to perform wide off-boresight target designation. * Visual target acquisition using reverse cueing mode where the display symbology guides the pilot's eyes to the target tracked by the aircraft sensors. The nav/attack system provides spatial data. * Situational awareness based on concise display of vital information (tactical, navigation, safety, etc.). Topsight E has four integrated operational modes: * Navigation is based on ring laser gyro INS with embedded GPS receiver. * Air-to-air weapon delivery includes guns, rockets and high- and low-drag bombs, using continuous computation of impact point (CCIP) and continuous computation of release point (CCRP). * Training includes failure simulations, as well as target and threat simulations. * The Topflight avionics suite features a full glass cockpit and HOTAS control, plus a range of avionics, linked to a 1553 multiplex bus. Mirage 2000E "Mirage 2000E" was a blanket designation for a series of export variants of the Mirage 2000. These aircraft were fitted the M53-P2 engine and an enhanced "RDM+" radar, and all can carry the day-only ATLIS II laser targeting pod. Mirage 2000M (Egypt) Egypt was the first foreign buyer, ordering 16 single-seat Mirage 2000M and four Mirage 2000BM trainers in late 1981, with deliveries beginning in 1986. The Egyptians also purchased ATLIS II pods and a wide range of appropriate munitions, including Magic and Super 530 AAMs, AS-30L laser-guided ASMs, and Armat anti-radiation missiles. Mirage 2000H (India) Indian Air Force Mirage 2000H. Indian Air Force Mirage 2000H. India is a major user of the Mirage 2000, having acquired a total of 49 examples, including 42 single-seaters and 7 Mirage two-seaters. The IAF named the Mirage Vajra (Thunderbolt). India also purchased appropriate stores along with the fighters, including ATLIS II pods and laser-guided weapons. * Since India wanted the fighter quickly, the first part of an initial batch of 26 single-seaters and 4 two-seaters was shipped to the Indian Air Force (IAF) beginning in 1985 with the older M53-5 engines. These aircraft were given the designations of Mirage 2000H5 and Mirage 2000TH5. * The second part of this initial batch consisted of 10 more single-seaters with the M53-P2 engine, with these aircraft designated Mirage 2000H. All the first batch was reengined with the M53-P2, with the single-seaters re-designated "Mirage 2000H" and the two-seaters re-designated Mirage 2000TH. * A second batch of six Mirage 2000H single-seaters and three Mirage 2000TH two-seaters was shipped in 1987-1988. Recent orders: * In 2004, the Indian government approved purchase of ten more Mirage 2000Hs, with these machines featuring improved avionics, particularly an upgraded RDM-7 radar. * The Mirage 2000-5 was the front-runner for a planned Indian Air Force 124+ fighter procurement in which it was competing with the Mikoyan MiG-35, F-16 Falcon and JAS 39 Gripen. However, Dassault announced that Mirage 2000 will be replaced by the Rafale as the contender for the deal since the Mirage 2000 production line is to be closed. * India has announced a $1.9 billion program to arm 52 of its Mirage 2000 aircraft with the MBDA ASRAAM dogfighting missile beginning in 2007. Installation will require new radar, electronic warfare equipment, and updates to the cockpit and data bus. Pilot helmets will require addition of a helmet-mounted sight. These will be the first Mirage aircraft to carry the British missile and Dassault, Thales, and MBDA are to participate in the effort Mirage 2000P (Peru) Peru placed an order for 10 single-seat Mirage 2000Ps and 2 Mirage 2000DP trainers. The Peruvians ordered a set of munitions similar to that ordered by Egypt, along with ATLIS II targeting pods. Mirage 2000-5EI (Taiwan) ASTAC pod ASTAC pod In 1992, the Republic of China Air Force ordered 48 single-seat Mirage 2000-5EI interceptors and 12 Mirage 2000-5DI trainers, with introduction of the first squadron in 1997 and the last fighters delivered in 1999. The Taiwanese ordered a set of ASTAC electronic intelligence (ELINT) pods for their Mirages. * France announced in 1992 that it would offer Dassault Mirage 2000-5 fighters to Taiwan. The number of aircraft considered had been rumored to be 120, but the deal was finalized as 60 aircraft (48 single-seat 2000-5EIs and 12 two-seat 2000-5DIs) on November 17 of the same year. This marks the first ROCAF purchase of French fighters since the arrival of 24 Dewoitine D.510C piston-engine monoplanes in 1937. The program was given the codename "Fei Lung" (Flying Dragon). * The ROCAF also obtained 960 MICA medium-range and 480 Magic II short-range air-to-air missiles from Matra. The former provides the Mirage with the BVR capability needed for its role as front-line interceptor. A number of centerline twin gun pods with DEFA 554 cannons were also acquired and fitted on the two-seaters, as they do not have an internal gun armament. Other support equipment, such as auxiliary fuel tanks, helmets, and G-suits, have also been procured. * The first batch of ROCAF Mirage 2000-5s, consisting of five aircraft, arrived at Hualien Harbor on the east coast of Taiwan by sea on 1997-05-06. After being unloaded, they were towed to Hualien AB, where they were unpacked and checked, and then flown to Hsinchu AB. Subsequent deliveries also followed the same procedure. The last ROCAF Mirage 2000-5 was delivered in an official ceremony on 1998-11-26. All Mirage 2000-5s are operated by the 499th TFW at Hsinchu. The first unit to convert to the type, the 41st TFS, was commissioned on 1997-12-01. Subsequently the 42nd TFS was commissioned on 1998-11-26. The 499th TFW achieved the IOC (Initial Operational Capability) status on 2001-05-10, and the 48th TFS was commissioned on the same day. On 2004-11-01, the 41st and 42nd TFSs were upgraded to the TFG status, while the 48th TFS became the 48th Training Group, in the largest restructure undertaken by the ROCAF since 1999. At the same time, the original 11th TFG went into history. Each of the new TFG/TG is commanded by a Colonel, but the number of aircraft assigned is not much different from that for a Squadron. Although their official English designation is Tactical Fighter Group, the Chinese designation literally means Operations Group. Weapon Testing & Exercises * On 1998-05-08, a two-seat DI fired one MICA missile and successfully hit a target drone 67 km away. It was the first launch of the said missile outside France. The second MICA live-firing exercise took place off the east coast of Taiwan on 2000-03-29, in which 2051 (right side image) fired a single MICA missile from its left inner pylon. * On 2004-07-21, two Mirage 2000-5s from the 2nd TFW landed on the wartime reserve runway located at the Jenteh section of Highway No. 1 as part of the annual Han Kuang No. 20 Exercise. Mirage 2000-5DI 2051, piloted by Maj. Wei-Kuang Chang and Lt. Col. Juei-Chi Duan, and 2054, piloted by Lt. Col. Bin-Fu Wu and Capt. Jien-Liang Chen, took off from their home base Hsinchu Air Base at 0540 hrs. 2051 landed on the highway at 0620 hrs, followed by 2054 at 0622 hrs. The two jets then taxied to the other end of the reserve runway to be refueled and re-armed with two Magic air-to-air missiles, respectively. At 0712 hrs, 2051 took off again and 2054 followed one minute later. Both landed at Hsinchu at 0736 hrs. Mirage 2000-5EDA (Qatar) In 1994, Qatar ordered nine single-seat Mirage 2000-5EDAs and three Mirage 2000-5DDA trainers, with initial deliveries starting in 1997. Mirage 2000EAD/RAD (UAE) In 1983, the UAE purchased 22 single-seat Mirage 2000EADs, 8 unique single-seat Mirage 2000RAD reconnaissance variants, and 6 Mirage 2000DAD trainers, for a total order of 36 machines. The order specified an Italian-made defensive avionics suite that delayed delivery of the first of these aircraft until 1989. * The Mirage 2000RAD reconnaissance variant does not have any built-in cameras or sensors, and the aircraft can still be operated in air combat or strike roles. The reconnaissance systems are implemented in pods, including the Thales "SLAR 2000" radar pod, Dassault "COR2" multi-camera pod with visible and infrared imaging capability, and the Dassault "AA-3-38 HAROLD" telescopic long-range optical camera pod. The UAE is the only nation operating such a specialized reconnaissance variant of the Mirage 2000 at this time. Mirage 2000-9 Mirage 2000-9 is the export variant of Mirage 2000-5 Mk.2. * The UAE was the launch customer, ordering 32 new-build aircraft, comprising 20 Mirage 2000-9 single-seaters and 12 Mirage 2000-9D two-seaters. Initial deliveries of the UAE Mirages began in the spring of 2003. A further 30 of Abu Dhabi's older Mirage 2000s will also be upgraded to Mirage 2000-9 standard. * The UAE's Mirage 2000-9s are well-equipped for the strike mission, since they are being provided with the Shehab laser targeting pod (a variant of the Damocles) and the Nahar navigation pod, complementing the air-to-ground modes of the RDY-2 radar. They are also equipped with a classified countermeasures system designated "IMEWS", which is comparable to the ICMS 3. The UAE is also obtaining the "Black Shahin" cruise missile, which is basically a variant of the MBDA Apache cruise missile similar to Storm Shadow. Mirage 2000EG (Greece) Greek Mirage 2000EG climbing. Greek Mirage 2000EG climbing. Beginning in March 1985, the Greeks ordered 36 single-seat Mirage 2000EGs and 4 Mirage 2000BG two-seat trainers. * They feature an ICMS 1 defensive countermeasures suite, which is an updated version of the standard Mirage 2000C countermeasures suite and is characterized by two small antennas near the top of the tailfin. These Mirage 2000s were later modified in the field to carry the Aerospatiale AM39 Exocet anti-ship missile. * In 2000, Greece ordered a batch of 25 Mirage 2000-5 Mk.2 fighters, which feature the SATURN secure radio. The order included 15 new-build aircraft and 10 upgrades of existing Greek Mirage 2000EGs. Apparently the Greek order does not include any upgrades of two-seaters. Mirage 2000BR (Brazil) Dassault competed for a Brazilian deal with the Mirage 2000BR, another variant of the Mirage 2000-9. Due to Brazilian budget problems, the competition has dragged on for years until it was suspended in February 2005. * In July 2005, however, Brazil agreed to purchase 12 ex-AdA Mirage 2000C aircraft. * First two Mirage 2000C and Mirage 2000B delivered to Brazilian Air Force(FAB) on September 4th 2006 . Aircraft were delivered to 1º GDA in Anápolis, Goiás to replace Mirage IIIEBR/DBR. Aircraft will be named F-2000 in FAB service. Info from wiki (Less)

Description: English club Arsenal, undeterred by a rebuff during the January 2004 transfer window, made a move for the striker at the end of the 2003-04 season. Van Persie also emerged as a target for Dutch club (More) English club Arsenal, undeterred by a rebuff during the January 2004 transfer window, made a move for the striker at the end of the 2003-04 season. Van Persie also emerged as a target for Dutch club PSV Eindhoven, Bundesliga outfit Werder Bremen, and Spanish side Sevilla. However Arsenal fended off other club interest and signed van Persie, despite already having signed Spanish striker José Antonio Reyes from Sevilla. Van Persie completed his move for a fee believed to be in the range of £3 million to the Premiership on May 17, 2004. Praised by Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger for the strength of his talent and touted as a long-term replacement of Dennis Bergkamp, the young Dutchman made his debut for the team in the 3-1 FA Community Shield victory over Manchester United on August 8, 2004. Early on, he played as a left winger, but subsequently featured as a striker. He spent most of his time on the bench during earlier parts of the season and looked to have earned himself a permanent place there with his sending off against Southampton which cost Arsenal two points, and caused Wenger to display uncharacteristic anger in public with a player. To his credit, Van Persie redoubled his efforts in training during his suspension and was reintroduced in to the team when injuries to Thierry Henry forced Wenger's hand. His return to the first team has been marked with numerous goals, the pinnacle of his achievements (at that time) coming in the FA Cup semi-final against Blackburn Rovers where he scored two goals to secure victory for Arsenal. He also scored the vital breakthrough goal against West Bromwich Albion to help Arsenal secure second place in the Premiership after the Albion defence had proved difficult to break down. As a result of his good play he won the The Barclay's Premiership Player of the Month. Van Persie scored in the first game of the 2005-06 season and he continued to show good form, winning the prestigious Player of the Month award in November after scoring six goals in just four starts. He signed a contract extension keeping him at the North London club until 2011. In the early part of the 2006-07 season, against Charlton Athletic, he scored what turned out to be BBC's Goal of the Month, an airborne volley from the edge of the 18-yard box. Arsène Wenger described it as "technically perfect". Another notable contribution was made during a 2-1 loss to Fulham FC. As Arsenal's inconsistent form continued with Fulham taking a shock lead, Robin gave the Gunners a glimmer of hope with a blistering free kick from the better part of 30 yards. These and his international performances for his country earned him the title Rotterdam Sportsman of the year 2006. Shortly after being named Rotterdam sportsman of the year, five goals in four games against Blackburn Rovers, Watford F.C. and Charlton illustrated his importance to Arsenal. Van Persie's season was soon ended by injury however. In a match against Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium on 21 January 2007, Van Persie came on as a substitute and scored the equaliser in the 84th minute. In doing so, Van Persie fractured his fifth metartarsal in his right foot while celebrating, an injury that kept him out till the end of the season, where he managed to remain as the top scorer for the season with Arsenal.[1] Following the departure of Arsenal star striker Thierry Henry prior to the 2007-08 season, Van Persie was expected to assume the role as the main striker of the club. He showed good form in the pre-season Emirates Cup, scoring the winning goal in Arsenal's 2-1 victory over Internazionale, a goal described by one journalist as "of sublime execution".[2] (Less)

Description: 'Stop the bleeding" are the words in blue on Katherine Hollien's black T-shirt. Katherine, 14, has no scars on her arms, but the words on her shirt represent the pain of those who do -- (More) 'Stop the bleeding" are the words in blue on Katherine Hollien's black T-shirt. Katherine, 14, has no scars on her arms, but the words on her shirt represent the pain of those who do -- those whose scars are self-inflicted. Katherine, of Hanover, is one of thousands of teens responding to a group called To Write Love on Her Arms. It's a nonprofit organization originally formed in 2006 to help Renee, a teenager from Florida who sought help to stop cutting herself. Writer and founder Jamie Tworkowski wrote about her recovery in an online essay and thousands worldwide got behind the effort and bought T-shirts like Katherine's in support. Tworkowski's essay described five days spent with Renee after a treatment center rejected her, deeming her too risky. She was 19, high on cocaine, had been drinking, and was depressed, suicidal and carving obscenities into her forearm. Tworkowski wrote: "We became her hospital and the possibility of healing fills our living room with life. It is unspoken, and there are only a few of us, but we will be her church, the body of Christ coming alive to meet her needs, to write love on her arms." Grassroots effort He hand-sold a few dozen T-shirts to pay for Renee's treatment. One sale led to another and soon rock 'n' roll groups, like Paramore, wore them while performing and teens like Katherine and her friends became interested. Katherine said she and her friend Emily Abi-Kheirs are huge Paramore fans and first saw the band wear T-shirts with the To Write Love on Her Arms logo. Then, "we were at the Wrentham outlets and we saw a girl with the shirt on," said Katherine, who like Emily will be entering ninth grade at Hanover High School this fall. "So we went home and Googled it. We found the Web site and we thought it was wicked cool." The organization's official MySpace page lists more than 115,000 friends, hundreds of whom have posted their own messages of support and tales of struggle. Users of the social networking site Facebook.com have created 16 groups dedicated to the movement that together list more than 18,000 members. A search for the phrase on Google brings up almost 4.5 million references. And all without any coverage in the mainstream press. Songs of praise Music gave the group a huge boost in May 2006 at Cornerstone Florida, an annual Christian rock festival. Hayley Williams, the 19-year-old singer of the fast-rising rock band Paramore, told the crowd to check out To Write Love, which had a booth on the grounds. It was during this show Tworkowski said he realized To Write Love had staying power. "After the set, it seemed the entire crowd walked straight to our booth," Tworkowski said in an e-mail. "It was clear that something was happening." Hanover teens Katherine and Emily are lobbying for their favorite Boston group to join the cause. "It'd be really cool if Boys Like Girls got into it," Emily said. To Write Love will also have a tent at each stop on the Vans Warped Tour, a two-month nationwide music tour featuring more than 50 bands. Attended largely by teens and people in their early 20s, the tour is an ideal vehicle for spreading the movement's message, Tworkowski said. Strong message The strength of the coolness factor notwithstanding, the movement's story and message are what compel teens like Emily, Katherine and their friend Jessica Stacy to buy To Write Love shirts and spread news of its existence. For Jessica, who stumbled upon the Web site through links on friends' MySpace pages, the tales of fellow teens' struggles had a personal resonance. "To Write Love on Her Arms helped because I was going through that," she said. The Web site and blogs were "a place that was safe and secure. It's not an adult saying, 'This is wrong.'" That feeling of safety and security is important for the treatment and recovery of a self-injurer, said psychologist Wendy Lader -- but it's not enough. "There's still a feeling of alienation because the other person doesn't understand the depth of experience" of the teen struggling with depression, suicide, drug abuse or self-injury, said Lader, who co-founded the treatment program S.A.F.E. (Self Abuse Finally Ends), in 1986. S.A.F.E. is one of seven organizations selected earlier this year by To Write Love to be regular recipients of money raised through donations and sales of merchandise. "We want our audience to know where these needs are being met," Tworkowski wrote in the e-mail. Inspiration Emily, Jessica and Katherine have all been inspired by the movement to help others. "I want to be into activism when I grow up," Jessica said. Emily wants to "do something with music." She has already composed a few pieces. Or she would like to become a psychiatrist. Tworkowski's way with words has struck the strongest chord with Katherine, who would like to earn her living as a writer. After describing their goals, the girls muse upon the possibility of pooling their specialties to really make a difference among those in need. At 14 years old, they realize it will be a while before they fulfill their dreams, but that doesn't dull their enthusiasm. It's enthusiasm like this that Tworkowski hopes will help to open the door to conversation about a reality that's bigger than people think -- or maybe want to know. "More than half our audience struggles with depression and self-injury," Tworkowski wrote in the e-mail. "That suggests this is much more than a T-shirt phenomenon. These are people living in dark places. "A friend of mine told me there's no such thing as suicide prevention. This is an attempt to prove him wrong, to say that love can change a life," Tworkowski wrote. Jane Mackay may be reached at jmackay@ledger.com. (Less)

PAPA ROACH on CAPITAL CHAOS TV 1998

Description: PAPA ROACH "Thrown Away" @ The Press Club - Sacramento, CA 1998.....also on the bill were KAYA & FLAMBOOKEY http://paparoach.com Papa Roach is a four-piece alternative rock band with (More) PAPA ROACH "Thrown Away" @ The Press Club - Sacramento, CA 1998.....also on the bill were KAYA & FLAMBOOKEY http://paparoach.com Papa Roach is a four-piece alternative rock band with post-grunge, punkrock and hardcore punk influences from Vacaville, California. They broke through in to the mainstream with their three times platinum major-label debut album Infest (2000). The group's success continued with later releases lovehatetragedy (2002) and Getting Away With Murder (2004). The group's fourth major album, The Paramour Sessions was released on September 12, 2006. http://myspace.com/paparoach Papa Roach's early years The early formation of Papa Roach occurred in January of 1993, when Jacoby Shaddix (vocals) and Dave Buckner (drums) met on the Vacaville High School football field, where the two ended up talking about music. They were later joined by Will James (bass) and Alan Dan Pease (trombone), completing Papa Roach's first ever line-up. They decided to enter in the school's talent show, where they performed a cover version of Jimi Hendrix's famous song, Fire. However, the performance was most notable for the fact they played without a guitarist. They ultimately didn't win the contest. In March 1993, Ben Luther was replaced by Jerry Horton (guitar) from nearby Vanden High School. Jerry was introduced to the band through his girlfriend, who was a fan. At first, Jerry was apprehensive about joining because Jacoby, Dave and Will went to a different high school. By this point in time, Papa Roach were practicing everyday in Dave's garage and trying to secure local gigs. Papa Roach's first ever release, Potatoes for Christmas (1994) Papa Roach's first ever release, Potatoes for Christmas (1994) In 1994, Papa Roach recorded their first 7 track EP titled Potatoes For Christmas. David Buckner was temporarily replaced by Ryan Brown, as Buckner was spending the year in Seattle studying art. One year later, they recorded a 2 track promo at Sound Farm Studios titled Caca Bonita. By this time Dave Buckner was back. To keep progressing as a band, Will James, who had become heavily involved in a church summer camp, was replaced by Tobin Esperance, Because James' absence would limit the band from practicing and touring over the summer. As Esperance had been with the band as a roadie for a while, the transition was an easy one. In 1997, the band produced their first full-length album, entitled Old Friends from Young Years. Still touring heavily, they supported bands such as Incubus, Powerman 5000, (həd) pe, Snot, Far and Static-X. In 1998, they released a 5 track EP titled 5 Tracks Deep. It sold more than 1,000 copies in its first month of release.[citation needed] Its success caught the attention of Warner Brothers, who financed the production of a 5 track promo/demo CD. The disc included the songs "Last Resort", "Broken Home" and "She Loves Me Not" - the first two would later feature on their Infest album, and the third on lovehatetragedy. In the end, Warner Brothers elected not to sign them. One year later, they produced another EP, which would end up being their last, titled Let 'Em Know. This was seen to be Papa Roach's best independent effort as a band, highlighting their improved and matured sound.[citation needed] Soon after, Shaddix was contacted by Dreamworks Records offering the band a recording contract. Papa Roach made it into the mainstream on the back of their major label debut album, Infest, and the hit single, "Last Resort". The breakthrough and mainstream success Papa Roach's 3x Platinum album, Infest (2000) Papa Roach's 3x Platinum album, Infest (2000) After signing with Dreamworks Records in October of 1999, they immediately hit the studio to record their debut major label album titled Infest. The album included four old songs, which were re-recorded and re-mastered, and an additional seven newly written songs. Infest was released in the United States on April 25, 2000, and sold 30,000 copies in its first week of release. With their debut album released, and the music video for "Last Resort" recorded, they hit the Vans Warped Tour and numerous other large tours. In late 2000, they even toured the United Kingdom, highlighting how quickly their popularity had spread worldwide. In 2001, the band toured Ozzfest, where they performed on the prestigious main stage, on both the United States and United Kingdom tours. After enormous amounts of touring worldwide, most notably in the United States, United Kingdom and Japan, the band hit the studio again to record their sophomore effort titled lovehatetragedy. The album was released in the United States on June 18, 2002, and though it didn't outsell Infest, it managed to chart higher in both the United States and United Kingdom album charts. The album marked their first change in sound. Papa Roach's Scars" promo CD single picture, circa (2004) The image above is a candidate for speedy deletion. It will be deleted after 2007-06-10. Papa Roach's Scars" promo CD single picture, circa (2004) The image above is a candidate for speedy deletion. It will be deleted after 2007-06-10. In late 2003, Papa Roach hit the studio again to write and record their 3rd major album, which was tentatively titled Dancing In the Ashes. However the name was soon to be replaced by Getting Away With Murder. The band worked with well-recognized producer Howard Benson, writing such songs as "Take Me" and "Scars". After completion, the band filmed the video for the title track, "Getting Away With Murder", and went on a small summer club tour to warm-up for the new album and tours to follow. Some long time fans of the band criticized Getting Away With Murder for its softer sound, compared to their previous albums. Regardless of the perceived backlash, Getting Away With Murder outsold lovehatetragedy, mainly due to the enormous popularity of the album's second single, "Scars". Currently, the album has sold more than 1 million copies and has been certified platinum. In 2005, the band spent a large proportion of the year on tour. This included a full United States and European tour alongside bands such as Slipknot, Dead Poetic, Trust Company, Chronic Future, Skindred, 311 and Unwritten Law. The Paramour Sessions and the future On September 12, 2006 they released their 4th major-label album The Paramour Sessions. The band chose the title in respect to the recording location, the Paramour Mansion. The band were given the idea of doing an album in a mansion, while recording Getting Away With Murder, by Slipknot, who where recording their Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) album in the Houdini Mansion and told the band it was the "only way to make an album". "To Be Loved" was the first single from the album. That album marked a more Alternative Rock/Pop-Rock-based sound compared to earlier efforts but still contained the softer ballads akin to Getting Away With Murder. Although the album debuted at #16 on the Billboard 200 Charts, the total sales are considered disappointing by Papa Roach standards, with only 250,000 copies sold. The band started touring in August 2006, with an American tour followed by one in Europe. On October 2006, Papa Roach toured with bands such as Guns N' Roses, during the Chinese Democracy tour, and Deftones through-out the United States, having major success. They were also the special guest band during the Zippo Hot Tour. The band originally planned to release a compilation of acoustic recordings for their songs, such as "Forever," "Scars," and "Not Coming Home" (all 3 recorded in Scotland). "Not Coming Home" was recorded for KROQ's charity Christmas album, entitled Kevin and Bean's Super Christmas. The acoustic compilation has since been put on hold until the future. In an interview with billboard.com, Jacoby Shaddix, has stated that he doesn't think his fans are quite ready for the acoustic direction. [2] On April 25, 2007 it was announced that Dave Buckner would be sitting out the band's current tour. A statement issued by the group's record label said, "Buckner has taken time off from touring with the band due to personal matters." He is expected to rejoin the group at a later date. Jacoby Shaddix later confirmed in an interview with Launch Radio Networks that Dave had checked himself into rehab, stating "Dave, he went to rehab and went to go clean his act up 'cause he was out of his f***ing mind." Unwritten Law drummer, Tony Palermo filled in on drums for touring duties. "Forever" is the 2nd single from The Paramour Sessions and is currently in heavy rotation across America. On May 23, 2007, more than 4 months after Forever had impacted radio, the band shot the official video for "Forever" in the Los Angeles area, directed by Meiert Avis. Dave Buckner was in the video and is now known to be back for good. On June 15, 2007 the video made it's official debut on AOL. [3] Little did Papa Roach fan Ramon Boutviseth (from Huntersville, NC) know that when he entered the "Make Your Own 'Forever' Video" contest on YouTube for fun that he would end up as an official co-director. Even though a video for "Forever" was already completed, when the band saw Boutviseth's version, they liked his storyline so much that they handed control over to the fan to mix the original performance footage with his own editing and storyline. http://papa-roach.com Music style In their first two albums, Old Friends From Young Years (1997) and Infest (2000), Papa Roach tended to incorporate influences from nu metal and rapcore. Since lovehatetragedy (2002), they moved to rap-devoid sounds like alternative rock (except for the songs "Anxiety", played along with Black Eyed Peas, and "She Loves Me Not").Papa Roach has also influences from punkrock, pop punk, hardcore punk, post-hardcore, hard rock, pop rock and post-grunge. Frontman Jacoby Shaddix said the following in an interview with the Dallas Music Guide regarding the band no longer using rapping in their music: "...the rapping's gone! I don't feel like rapping. I'm just over that...I just want to be a rocker. It's what I wanted to be when I was a kid"[1]. To many fans' surprise, "...To Be Loved" of their most recent album The Paramour Sessions features glimpses of the old nu metal sound, with what many would consider rapping in the beginning and end verses. "Roses On My Grave" is the only song featuring orchestral instruments, giving it a different flavour compared to the rest of The Paramour Sessions. Band members Current * Jacoby Shaddix -- Lead vocals/Lyrics * Jerry Horton -- Guitar, backing vocals * Tobin Esperance -- Bass, guitar, backing vocals * Dave Buckner -- Drums, percussion, backing vocals Former * Ben Luther -- trombonist who was replaced by Jerry Horton in 1993, while the band was still in its initial formation process. * Will James -- bassist who featured on the band's first record Potatoes for Christmas. * Ryan Brown -- drummer who temporarily filled in for Dave Buckner on the Potatoes for Christmas recording, who was studying art in Seattle. * Mike Doherty - second guitarist during the lovehatetragedy tour in 2002. http://capitalchaos.net (Less)
