Yassin Bono: The goalkeeper who has become a Moroccan hero

 

In the ongoing FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar, the Moroccan team has won a special place and honor. The Moroccan team has reached the semi-finals after defeating Portugal.

The most prominent star player in Morocco's success is Moroccan goalkeeper Yassine Bono, fondly known as 'Bono'.Ever since the team made it to the semi-finals, fans have been raving about them. He is being hailed as a great national hero.Morocco have played five matches in the World Cup so far and this team has been invincible.Morocco's first match in the World Cup was against Croatia. Neither team could score a goal and the match ended in a tie.Morocco then defeated Belgium by two goals to nil, Canada by two goals to one, and Spain by three goals to nil in a penalty shootout.In the quarter-finals, Morocco defeated Portugal by one goal to zero.The goal he scored against Morocco in the match against Canada was against himself. Regardless, no team has failed to score a goal against Morocco in this World Cup so far, even if it's a penalty.This is the reason why Morocco's success is being attributed to goalkeeper Bono.We came here to change our mentality and get rid of the feeling of inferiority," 31-year-old goalkeeper Yassine Bono said after the victory over Portugal. Morocco is ready to face any team in the world, even in the semi-finals. Even in later comparisons.


Bono's performance

 Bono's standout performance came against Spain when he did not concede a single goal in the penalty shootout. Earlier, during the 130-minute match, none of Spain's attacks were allowed to succeed. After this match, the Spanish team was out of the World Cup and this match went down in Moroccan football history.We have changed that (defeat) mentality and the next generation of players will know that Moroccan players can do great things," Bono said.Goalkeeper Bono has spent a significant part of his career in Spain and has been the goalkeeper of Sevilla football.Bono was awarded France's prestigious Yassin Trophy in 2022. This award is given to the best goalkeeper in the world. The award is given in the name of Russian goalkeeper Lev Yasin. After receiving this honor, he was also named the ninth best goalkeeper in the world.Bono was also awarded Spain's prestigious Zamora Trophy. In Spain, the award is given to the goalkeeper who concedes the fewest goals in a year.


Bono's Journey

Yassin Bono was born in Montreal, Canada, far away from his country of Morocco. He returned to Morocco at the age of seven.He was interested in football since his childhood but his father was against his passion for this sport. Bono started playing for Vidal Casablanca and focused on becoming a professional footballer.

Argentina team fans

He left Morocco when Spanish football club AtlĂ©tico de Madrid signed him. But his experience with this club was not very good and he left the club.He then stayed with Zamora for two seasons (2014–16) and then was part of Girona Football Club from 2016–2019. After that they reached Siva.Although Bono has been associated with football clubs in Spain, it is known that he is a huge fan of Argentine football.The first T-shirt my father gave me was from Argentina," Bono said a few years ago.Bono's language is also influenced by the Argentinian dialect. Explaining why, he once said, 'I'm more Moroccan than anything, when I got to Spain I was playing with Argentine players, and my language was influenced by their dialect.'Bono's favorite player is Argentina's Ariel Ortega, also known as 'El Burrito Ortega'. Bono once said that he fondly calls his dog Ariel.In the Football World Cup, the eyes of the world are now on Morocco, which will compete against France in the semi-finals.The other semi-final is between Croatia and Argentina. Now to see if Bono has any chance to play against Argentina?

Debate on giving religious colors to Deepika's clothes in 'Be Sharam Rang': 'Is saffron color someone's personal property?'

 

Thus, Shah Rukh Khan's new film 'Pathan' has been a victim of controversy from the beginning and the slogan of 'Boycott Pathan' has also been heard against it, but yesterday Shah Rukh Khan sang a song of his film 'Bay'. When he tweeted while sharing the video of Sharm Rang, people took him by the hand.

But with the release of the song, 'Be Sharm Rang' and Deepika started trending along with the boycott of the film.While many were enthralled by the pairing of Shah Rukh Khan and actress Deepika Padukone, some users gave the song a religious tinge and objected that the song's colors were not 'shameless' at all. 

In response to this tweet of the king of Bollywood, someone has talked about the excitement of this song, while someone has talked about the fitness of Shah Rukh Khan. Many also praised Deepika's 'matchless beauty'.However, there is a group with him who named Bollywood as 'Urdu Wood' and wrote that 'Urdu Wood will never improve.'Many people have tried to give a religious color to this song by taking a screenshot of a tweet by a user named 'James of Bollywood'.The tweet read, "Afghanistan's Pathans are sexually abusing Deepika dressed in saffron (while there are many non-religious half-naked women around). In another scene, the Pathan is wearing green. Endless fiction writing of Urdu wood and its owners.In response to this, a user named Amit Hindu wrote 'Urduwood = soft porn' with a shameless hashtag.James of Bollywood has hundreds of thousands of followers and has done many such tweets from this handleA Twitter handle named Saffron Seena wrote with the hashtag 'Boycott Pathan' that 'the actress is wearing a saffron colored bikini'.In response, a user named Muni wrote with the Pathan hashtag: 'Anything, any color is someone's personal property? These people put the stamp of Dharma and Dharma even in colors 

.

In this regard, Vaishno Devi Temple, a well-known place of Hindus, is also trending because Shahrukh Khan visited and had darshan there yesterday. It is said that he did this for the success of the film Pathan.In this regard, a user Shyam Meera Singh wrote that "Even if he doesn't go to the temple, I have heard him a thousand times and Shah Rukh has always talked about all religions." Salman and Aamir also talked about the common culture of the country.But Bollywood was systematically defamed. New heroes were created to spread false propaganda against Muslims.It should be remembered that even before this there has been noise on social media regarding the boycott of films of Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, while Deepika Padukone's film 'Padmaavat' was a subject of controversy for a while.

The mystery of the 'dead water' that traps ships in the middle of the ocean

 

 In 1893, Norwegian explorer Fritjof Nansen launched an expedition to the North Pole, after which he became world-famous for breaking the northern latitude record. He was the first to observe a strange phenomenon during the voyage that puzzled scientists for more than a century. While sailing through the Arctic waters of northern Siberia, Nansen noticed that his ship, the Frame, suddenly stopped even though its engines were running at full speed. Fredjoff described the situation as a 'mysterious force' that had seized his ship, causing it to barely move. We tried to get out of this trap, sometimes we pushed around, we tried all kinds of strategies to avoid it but with little success," he later said. Nansen became the first person to observe this strange phenomenon and named this water trap 'dead water'. 

Salt layer of water

                

Eleven years later in 1904, the Swedish physicist and marine scientist Wigan-Walfred Ekman was able to identify this phenomenon and find the reason behind it. Ekman demonstrated in the laboratory the observation that in this part of the Arctic Ocean, waves are created between the layers of salt and fresh water below the surface that have different densities. They attributed this to the melting of glaciers, which creates a layer of fresh water above the ocean. This water is more salty and thick. However, during laboratory experiments, Ekman observed that these waves caused oscillations in the ship's speed. This differs from the observations of Nansen whose ship stalled at a constant and unusually low speed. Until now, no one has been able to explain these differences or fully understand how 'dead water' affects them. But an interdisciplinary team from France's National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and the University of Poitiers believe they have discovered the secret to both mysteries. To understand this phenomenon, a team of physicists, fluid mechanics, and French mathematicians used mathematical classification of various underwater waves and experimental image analysis at the 'sub-pixel scale'. In a paper published in the scientific journal PNAS in early July, he concluded that the wave speeds Ekman described were due to different types of waves acting on a sort of 'vibrating conveyor belt'. Works as
Due to this 'tape', the boats are moving back and forth.
Scientists also succeeded in combining Ekman's observations with Nansen's and claimed that this double effect was only temporary.
 He also published in his paper that in the end 'the ship manages to escape from this situation and reach the constant speed described by Nansen.'
Experts believe that this phenomenon occurs not only in places with glaciers but also in all seas and oceans where water of different densities meets.
This also happens in cold mountain lakes during the summer because the temperature is stable there and therefore the swimmers are less likely to drown," study co-author Jermaine Roussoc said in a statement to Spain's ABC newspaper. The danger remains.'
This trend is also seen at the headwaters of rivers such as the Orinoco in South America, due to salty seawater and river runoff, Rusiuk added.
Cleopatra                                  

Interestingly, the research was not conducted to unravel the mystery of what happened to Nansen more than a century ago, but to unravel a much older mystery.This work is part of a larger project investigating how, in ancient Greece, during the Battle of Aquarium of Actium (31 BC), Cleopatra's and Marco Antony's large ships, facing ships even weaker than Caesar's Octavius, disappeared. were done
Did Axio Bay, which has all the characteristics of a long dark chasm, sink the Egyptian queen's fleet in dead water?
This is the question French scientists asked themselves.

 'Now we have another hypothesis to explain this astonishing defeat, which was anciently attributed to a type of fish, the 'hooked baitfish.'

500 years ago, sailors made the first voyage around the world by eating rats and leather

was September 8, 1522, when a ship anchored in a very bad condition in the port of Seville.  It was brought up the Guadalquivir River by a ship called the SanlĂşcar de Barrameda, where it arrived two days ago. The 18 crew members on board the ship were hungry, thirsty, and delirious.
 The ship was named Nau Victoria and the crew was headed by a Spanish captain, Yoan Sebastián Alcano.  It was not his main purpose but he became a part of history by accident.  He was able to circumnavigate the world for the first time.
 One might imagine that the first thing these sailors would do upon doing so would be to celebrate the achievement.  Instead of bragging about it, however, he went barefoot to the churches of Nuestra Señora de la Victoria and the Cathedral of Seville.

 He wanted to fulfill the promise he had made during the worst part of his voyage.  Because during this voyage, they had gone through such difficult and miserable conditions that instead of celebration and pride, their survival was the best reward for them. 
He had just accomplished a feat that could hardly be imagined on a ship because it was something like being in prison for almost three years.
 Let's go back in time to three years to find out what happened on these ships.
Paying half a ducat (gold coin) for a mouse'
The voyage began on August 10, 1519, when five ships and a crew of 250 men, led by the Portuguese captain Ferdinand Magellan, set sail from Seville.
 These ships had enough food and water for two years at that time.
 Lola Higueras, technical director of the Madrid Naval Museum, told BBC Mundo: "They kept salted fish and meat, vegetables, fruit, cheese, butter, double bread, oil, vinegar and spices on the ships. There was also a fire on the ships, but it was used only by high-ranking officers.
 However, this varied food lasted only a few months as there were no means of preserving it at that time, so it began to spoil and rot.
The double bread had bugs very quickly and they ate more bugs than the double bread, it was horrible," says Higueras.
The effects of food shortages were beginning to show and the situation worsened as these ships reached the Atlantic. They had no idea of ​​the vastness of the ocean and as the days wore on many of the crew began to starve.
Others cast their eyes on the floor in hopelessness and despair in search of the living animal they could use as food, the rat.
Historian Pablo Amilo PĂ©rez Malena says that 'half a ducat (an ancient gold coin worth about nine shillings in many European countries) began to be paid for a mouse at that time.
 This undesirable food became a palatable food under these circumstances, and we shall see further how it became an element of salvation.
But the rats also disappeared and the voyage continued without exploring the islands, and then these sailors added another thing to their diet in the face of great hunger.
They even began to eat the skin that was attached to various parts of the ship, softened in sea water or sometimes cooked a little over the fire," says Higueras.
Stay thirsty in the 'jail' of water

 Starvation was not the only difficulty on these small ships. These brave sailors also faced severe thirst.
 Lola Hagoras further explains that 'after a few months even the drinking water on the ships began to deteriorate, and the only way to obtain drinking water was to collect rainwater through the sails of the ships. But it didn't always rain and they couldn't collect enough water for all the crew members.'
 Historian Carlos MartĂ­nez explains that 'so when some sailors could not bear their thirst, they would quench their thirst with salt water by filling their buckets with the sea. But they would cause severe pain in his stomach Being thirsty and trapped on a ship surrounded by water, but unable to drink the water because it would make them sick, was a mental torture that was repeated daily for several periods of the voyage.
Apart from water, the only thing they used to keep themselves hydrated was wine, which, although it was kept on board in large numbers, was also beginning to deteriorate.
Vitamin C deficiency and tooth decay.
 Along with hunger and thirst, a disease also overtook them. Especially those who know about the voyages of sailors who suffered from scurvy (a disease caused by vitamin C deficiency).
It is a disease that occurs in humans without reaching a land island for a very long time.
This disease is spread among sailors due to a lack of consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables which leads to significant vitamin C deficiency.
 Horas explains that 'their teeth began to break, their gums became inflamed and their bodies became so weak that they began to die. There was another serious problem with this. The movement of the ship depended on the sails and for that one had to climb on them and unfurl them, turn them, but when it was time to change the direction of the ship, the weak and emaciated sailors could not climb on the sails and change it and the ship would capsize. Unable to change direction. '
 Few people were immune to the disease and lay in wait to catch the rats that roamed the ship.
'They helped him get rid of the disease because rats have a certain amount of vitamins B

 

and C,' says Hegros. unsung hero'
 But along with the three years of physical torture, it had also become psychological torture. The ships, which were barely 80 or 90 tons, became 'prisons' for the crew members who faced these hardships and wretched conditions.
 They had small rooms on board where they could rest as well as store spare parts and some leftover raw rations.
 So the 'deck' of the ship was the place for the crew to spend the day and night where they faced all kinds of cold and hot weather during this period. They did not have the means to protect themselves from the harshness of the weather.
 Fires built on hearths made of sand and bricks were not used to keep the sailors warm, but only for cooking when possible.
Many times they couldn't light the stoves on the ship because any storm could cause a fire to spread and burn the ship,' explains Lola Negras. The rules were very strict, candles could not be lit near certain areas of the ship, they could not even use lanterns to avoid a fire, and smoking was strictly prohibited on board.'
 During these three years, hurricanes were frequent and these small ships were at the mercy of the sea waves. Death hovered over their heads every moment, but these sailors emerged as unsung heroes.
 This is what Lola Higoras calls a diver. Skilled sailors who, without supplemental oxygen and in the darkness of deep water, carry out complex and difficult tasks such as sealing valuable cargo, weapon parts and, above all, sealing a hole or leak under the ship.'
The heroes who risked their lives to save the ships and their fellow sailors suffered from many ailments, including damaged eardrums.
These sailors have the honor of circumambulating the world for the first time despite hunger, thirst, disease, fear of death, and countless difficulties.

 But the struggle to survive in this journey was the greatest achievement. Lola Hegoras says that 'this voyage was a wonderful and exemplary voyage under very unusual circumstances.' 

A country where rats are not only a favorite food but also given as dowry to the bride

 

Before going to bed, they usually make sure that no food or scraps are left on the floor or table, otherwise they might invite some unwanted guests like mice. For some people, the mere sight of a rat is disgusting. New York, for example, has recently made new efforts to address the city's 'rat crisis', but such visitors are not universally despised. In fact, in some places around the world, rats are considered a delicious and desirable food. Every year on March 7, the Adi tribe in a remote village in the hills of Northeast India celebrates a festival called 'Yuning Aran'. It is an unusual festival in which rats are included in their best food dishes. One of Adi's favorite dishes is a stew called bole block oing, which is made by boiling rat stomach, intestine, liver, testicles, tail and legs with salt, pepper and ginger. All types of mice are welcome in this community, whether they are house mice seen around the house or their wild counterparts living in the wild. Rat tails and feet are particularly prized in terms of flavor, says Viktor Bennomeyer Rocho of the University of Oulu in Finland.He has spoken to many people of the Adi tribe during his recent research. Their research is based on the use of rats as a food source 


Rat meat is the best meat

In the course of research, he came across a different view of this pesky creature. Respondents stated that rat meat was 'the tastiest and best meat' they could imagine.'I was told that 'if there are no rats, then there is no party', there is no joyous occasion, honoring an important guest, visitor or relative, any special occasion; It can only happen when rats are on the menu.'They love rats so much that they are not the only part of their menu. They say that mice are given as gifts, which are dead. It is also an important item of dowry. When the bride's relatives happily send their daughter away from her old family with her husband, gifts include rats. On the first morning of the Yuning Aran festival called Aman Ro, children are given two dead mice as gifts, just like the toys you got as a child on Christmas morning. Little is known about when and how the aborigines became fascinated with rats, but Mayor Rocheau says it is a long-standing tradition that arose out of a lack of other sources of entertainment. Not a thing. Many animals such as deer, goats and buffaloes still roam the forests around the village but the tribal people prefer only the taste of rat. They say that there is no competition for a mouse. Even Mayor Rocheau, being a vegetarian, tasted the famous meat and found that it was similar to other meats except for the smell."It brings back memories of zoology students' first lab courses in which they dissect mice and study their anatomy," he says. It is not limited to this small corner of India that rat is on the menu. British TV host Stephen Gates has traveled the world and met people who have very unusual sources of food. Outside the city of YaoundĂ© in Cameroon, he found a small farm of rats, which he describes as 'little dogs, angry little devilish fellows'.

 Gates says these mice are special because they are more expensive than chicken or vegetables.


Their flesh is tender and flavorful

 And when asked about its taste, he said, "It was the tastiest meat I've ever had in my life." Gates recalls that the meat was cooked with tomatoes and he described it as 'like pork but very tender, like a slow-cooked pork shoulder'.'Extraordinarily soft, tender and delicious, the stew was very juicy, with a beautiful layer of fat that was beautifully rendered,' he says. In the northern Indian state of Bihar, Gates spent some time with Dalits (a backward Hindu caste). The people they meet tend to the crops of rich landowners of another caste and in return are allowed to eat the rats that wreak havoc on the farm. According to Gates, these small mice were very soft to eat and tasted like a small chicken or quail. The only unpleasant aspect was the smell of burning hair.They say that to save the skin or flesh of the young animal from being wasted, its hair is roasted whole, which creates a 'terrible smell' and 'a bitter smell on the outside of the skin. feeling' but inside all was good.The meat and skin inside the rat was absolutely delicious," he said.

Delicious mice from around the world

 Our taste for rodents goes back centuries. According to a scholarly review from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, rats were eaten in China during the Tang Dynasty (618-907) and were called 'domestic deer'. According to the authors, a special item eaten during the Tang Dynasty was newborn mice stuffed with honey.Until about 200 years ago, the currey, a closely related species of the common house rat, was eaten by many New ZealandersAccording to the Encyclopedia of New Zealand, currey was considered a delicacy served to pilgrims and was even used as currency, exchanged at events such as weddings. Grant Singleton of the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines says rats are regularly eaten in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, parts of the Philippines, and in Indonesia, Thailand, Ghana, China and Vietnam. 

mice and their tastes

Types of mice and their tastes

 Singleton says he has eaten rat meat at least six times in Vietnam's Mekong Delta. As for the taste, he says, "In the case of the rice field mouse, I consider it close to the taste of a rabbit."Singleton also recalled his experience of eating rats in the highlands of Laos and the lower delta of Myanmar. Farmers in Laos' northern highlands can identify at least five species of rat based on their taste, he says. Some communities in Africa have an ancient tradition of eating rats. In Nigeria, for example, the African giant rat is considered a favorite among all ethnic groups."It is considered a delicacy and is more expensive than beef or fish," says Mojesola Oyarikwa of Nigeria's University of Science and Technology, Afaki Ekiti. It is delicious and can be eaten roasted, dried or boiled.'So why do people eat rats? Is this what they desperately need? After tasting rats in different countries, Gates says that people do it by choice rather than forced by food shortages. Rats may not currently be on the menu at your favorite neighborhood restaurant, but as we become more adventurous with food globally, it's not unreasonable to think that rats may one day be on Western menus. Can be seen more often.
