AN Essex return beckons Hungerford on Tuesday night after a nerve-tingling Third Qualifying Round tie pitched both sides into Monday’s Emirates FA Cup draw.
Hungerford held a first half lead thanks to Stefan Brown’s penalty, but Billericay’s second half pressure brought an equaliser from substitute Ricky Modeste and a wave of raids.
But at the end, Hungerford could have snatched it, and a Fourth Qualifying Round spot rather than a midweek trek.
“It was a hell a game,” said Hungerford co-manager Jon Boardman. “They are a very good side but I thought our lads came out of it with a lot of credit.
“I think with a couple of tweaks here and there, they are beatable, but make no mistake, this is going to be one hell of a difficult game on Tuesday night.
Billericay had only four of their allowed seven substitutes and had a good team’s worth of injured and suspended players in the stands. But they had talent enough on the park with Sam Deering constantly probing, and his early flick led to Jake Robinson half-volleying a chance off the mark and the visitors nearly opened the scoring when Jermaine Pennant’s free kick spun up off goalkeeper Marcus Beauchamp and Ian Herring had to complete the clearance off the line.
Deering went close before Hungerford got a sniff when full back Matt pained levered a weak back-pass that Nicholas Bignall was on to before having his shirt tugged.
But Louie Theophanous might have done better than find the woodwork with his head and the same player was twice more denied by Beauchamp, once with a regulation stop and then by the goalkeeper’s legs as Hungerford were hanging on for a spell.
But they emerged from that to take the lead 10 minutes before the break when skipper Rhys Tyler drove in a cross that Paul Konchesky blocked with an arm and Stefan Brown tucked home the penalty.
Beauchamp kept the lead intact at the break when he took off to tip over a Pennant free kick, but the pressure grew after the re-star with Modeste and Billy Bricknell thrown into the massed ranks of Billericay attackers and within a minute Beauchamp was saving from Modeste and Joe Ellul, and the young ‘keeper was soon at it again to deny Robbie Evans while Scott Rees was on hand to clear off the line from Modeste.
A rare Hungerford break saw Brown cross deep, but Louis Soares could not make proper head contact at the back post, and soon the visitors were back on terms when they finally found a way past Beauchamp.
Ellul fopund Theophanous, who drove the ball in for Bricknell to meet and although Beauchamp pulled off a fine reaction stop, Modeste was following up to sweep home the rebound.
Modest got the rough and deserved ending to two penalty shouts, one a solid take by Herring but the other a take by Beauchamp when he had to come out wide to meet the striker’s run and clipped his heel, referee David Spain instead booing the forward for a simulation.
Herring produced a vital block from Deering and Beauchamp again from Brickell as Hungerford were looking like settling for the second bite. But they very nearly snatched the purse and a clear run into the next round at the finish when Allan Julian saved from Harvey Read and then substitute Jamal Lawrence got in behind only for Julian to pull off a superb save to leave both teams having to go for it again.
Hungerford Town: Beauchamp; Tyler, Read, Herring, John (Stonehouse 81); Clark, Willmoth (Simpson 56), Rees, Soares; Brown, Bignall (Lawrence 87). Subs: Rusby, Boardman, Hopper, Partridge.
Billericay Town: Julian; Paine (Modeste 46), Chambers (Lynch 74), Ellul, Konchesky; Deering, Waldren, Evans, Pennant; Thephanous, Robinson (Bricknell 46). Sub: Whymark.
Referee: David Spain (Sussex). Attendance: 507.

Taxable Accounts—Can yield earnings taxed as income, long-term capital gains or dividends.
Many people save consistently into the tax deferred “bucket” through their company 401(k) during their careers only to find that during retirement, their withdrawals from their IRA are taxed at their prevailing income tax rate.
Instead of putting all of your nest eggs in one basket, you can consider strategically distributing between the three categories. This could allow you to utilize the benefits of a graduated tax system for income and the benefits of lower tax rates for capital gains and dividends combined with the potential for tax-free income. The result can help you address your effective tax rate in retirement and provide the opportunity to “Build Your Own Paycheck”.

For me, it’s more luxurious to stay somewhere where the essence of the location shines through. The Old Wailkuku Inn at Ulupono is one such place. Located principally in a restored 1924 plantation-style house in the historic administrative centre of Wailuku on Maui, there are many touches at the B&B that speak of the melting pot of Hawaiian culture. The colourful, traditional Hawaiian quilts on the beds. The carved Chinese Jade and Soapstone screen that functions as a bed-head in my room. The antique furniture and lamps.
My favourite room is the common living room in the main house. Spending the late afternoon or evening relaxing on the rustic bamboo-framed lounge chairs, gathered around the piano with music set on its stand, flower arrangements scattered around, doors opening out onto a large verandah then a grassed lawn and tropical gardens. It feels like it’s from another, older era, before the age of highways and high-rises.
Not that the modern world is far away (especially if you’re using the free wi-fi while relaxing). The Inn is a convenient 20 minute drive from Kahalui Airport (the main airport on Maui). Plus it’s central location on the island makes it an ideal base for day trips, whether driving the road to Hana, visiting historic Lahaina and the western beaches or setting off before dawn to ascend Haleakala. It’s also just a short walk from Bailey House Museum and the cafes located on Market Street.
At the end of the day it’s a joy to retreat to the modern ensuite bathrooms to freshen up. Some of the showers featuring not only an overhead rain shower head and hand-held shower spray, but also wall jets. And all rooms have quality Aveda toiletries.
The ten unique rooms at the B&B, all named after flowers from the garden, are split between the original plantation house and the newer cottage addition, known as the Vagabond’s House, after a famous Hawaiian poem. My room, the Miulana Room, is situated on the top floor of the Vagabond’s House. It has its own private balcony, looking out towards the country to the south. It’s easy and seamless to check-in, with envelopes left at the main house, making it feel like it’s our own, secluded apartment.
But there’s also a sense of family. The next morning nearly everyone joins together to feast on breakfast, in the bright and airy dining room next to the living room, sharing stories of our island experiences and home towns. Each day of the week a different cooked breakfast is served, following a fresh fruit course. On our first day we enjoy delicious french toast, served with the owner Janice’s homemade cheese and mint sauce, alongside crispy bacon. There’s also no shortage of teas to choose from, for those like myself who aren’t coffee drinkers.
Chatting to Tom Fairbanks, Janice’s partner and fellow owner, after breakfast one morning about the restoration process required for the old house, it’s clear that it’s been a labour of love. Riddled with termite nests and old-fashioned wiring, the restoration required was extensive and thorough. It has been recognised with multiple awards and a listing on the Hawaii State Register of Historic Places. It’s also clear that they love their home of Hawaii and want to share it with their guests. And what better way to complement your Hawaiian holiday than by staying somewhere that truly feels like a historic Hawaiian home?

Mo' Food! Mo' Drinks! It's Momolicious!
It's always a joy going to the new Eastwood Mall. With its growing list of interesting food establishments, I normally would suggest meeting up here for a quick get-together or a cozy lunch out with friends.
Such was the case one Saturday afternoon when my balikbayan friend Ei and I agreed to meet up for lunch. Since she lives up north and I, somewhere along the center of the metro, Eastwood City turned out to be our middle ground.
I have a growing list of must-try restaurants in this new mall and this includes Momo Cafe. After enjoying our lunch at Chelsea Market and Cafe and loving the drinks over at M Cafe, I was very excited to try out this particular restaurant by the same operating group.
We arrived just a little past 12:30 and the restaurant was jam-packed! It's a good thing that service was quick and turn-over was pretty fast too. In no time, the front desk officer was able to lead us to our table. I love the bright, colorful interiors. With yellow being the main theme of the restaurant, it somehow gave us a sun-shiny feeling the moment we walked into the restaurant.
Ei and I quickly scanned its menu and it's funny that we were both eyeing on the same things! Taking a peek at the table beside us, we noticed that the serving was pretty big. Thus we agreed to just get one appetizer and a main course to share. I even told Ei to save some space for dessert after seeing that they have my favorite Cookie Dough Cheesecake from Chelsea.
We immediately placed our order as we had a lot of catching up to do.
While waiting for our orders to arrive, we happily munch on their complimentary garlic bread with this really yummy spread that I feel has a mix of pimiento, garlic and lots of cheese. We liked it so much that we tried asking the server what's it made off but looks like this remains to be Momo's top secret that she just gave us a big smile and told us to enjoy it.
Shortly after, our appetizer was served. We got the "Melted" Crab & Spinach 3 Cheese Dip (Php. 225). This was definitely a good choice as Ei and I enjoyed the crunchy chips, the juicy veggie sticks and of course, the delicious dip. In fact, this is probably one good dish to get the young ones to eat their veggies. I'm not really that fond of raw carrot sticks but with this one, I couldn't help but munch on one stick after the other as I carefully coated my carrots with the cheesy dip.
While enjoying our appetizer, our Sweet and Smokey Hickory BBQ Rib-lets (Php. 350) has arrived. Imagine a huge dish filled with perfectly grilled hickory bbq rib-lets placed sandwiched in between yellow party rice, a couple of buttered veggies and crunchy onion rings. Ei loved this dish and she kept on saying how tender the ribs were. I tried them myself and noted that the meat was literally fork-tender as the menu has promised. No need to struggle and lose your poise here. This is definitely perfect for families to enjoy.
While we only had two dishes that day, Ei and I were unbelievably stuffed that we just had to say no to dessert. Maybe on your next visit, I told my friend.
MoMo after a couple of research, I found out, stands for More Food, More Drinks. Guess they can also add there More Happiness as this was surely what we felt after our delicious meal. I will definitely be back as I would love to their their pizza, pasta and that cute cupcake that they have with a gummy bear on top.
rowena: actually every dish in momo is good for sharing! the ribs is actually good for 2-3 pax! yups its unbelievably reasonable!
I'm gonna try that Sweet and Smokey Hickory BBQ Rib-lets tonight. I hope it's as good as you've described it.

The French President last year pledged to repatriate African pieces in his country’s public museums. What repercussions could this policy have?
The issue of restitution, which increasingly dogs western museums, has become an even hotter topic since President Emmanuel Macron of France pledged to repatriate African artefacts. His declaration in Burkina Faso last November that “African heritage can’t just be in European private collections and museums” reignited the debate around colonial artefacts.
Macron has since asked two independent experts, the French art historian Bénédicte Savoy and the Senegalese economist Felwine Sarr, to draw up a set of recommendations for repatriation; their report is due in November. But a question mark hangs over how the policy will be implemented.
The French culture ministry is typically hostile to any changes on matters of restitution. “In 2010, the French parliament voted to set up a scientific commission to study proposals for repatriation, but the ministry failed to act,” the journalist Vincent Noce reported earlier this year, explaining that curators at French museums fiercely defend the principle of inalienability.
Yves-Bernard Debie, a Brussels-based lawyer specialising in cultural property and trade, believes that Macron’s proposal — considered by some as a masterstroke of cultural diplomacy — is ill-founded. “By anchoring the question of sharing world cultural property in the context of ‘restitution’, President Macron has sparked a fire that he will have a great deal of trouble extinguishing,” he says.
The Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac museum has a collection of more than 70,000 artefacts from sub-Saharan Africa. Some of the works are caught up in restitution claims. In July 2016, the Benin government called for the return of Guezo, Glele and Behanzin treasures in the collection; the disputed items were seized by the French army in 1892 from the royal palaces of Abomey located in the present-day Republic of Benin in west Africa. The claim was rejected in late 2016; the culture ministry declined to comment on the case.
Recent developments also have implications for the art trade, says Mathias Ary Jan, president of the Syndicat National des Antiquaires (the association of antique dealers in France), which oversees Paris Biennale. “Among collectors and dealers at La Biennale Paris there are very important museum donors, so the SNA is watching the [government’s position] regarding restitution,” Ary Jan says. Tribal art dealers are, for the time being, keeping schtum on the subject of cultural repatriation.
Nicholas Thomas, director of the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of Cambridge, has described the French president’s comments as “enormously encouraging”. In his current role as co-curator of the forthcoming Oceania show at London’s Royal Academy, Thomas has been verifying the provenance of almost 200 historic works from the south Pacific. All the exhibition’s historic loans are from public collections. “We have avoided including works known to have been illegitimately appropriated, with one exception: a Solomon Islands feast trough,” he says.
Thomas is also a leading voice in the Benin Dialogue Group, which comprises representatives from numerous European museums, the Royal Court of Benin and the Nigerian government. They are working towards the return of some Benin objects to Nigeria on long-term loan.
The Benin Dialogue Group met last year in Cambridge to formulate a plan for “the establishment of a permanent display in Benin City” in Nigeria, and is due to reconvene at Leiden’s Museum Volkenkunde in October. Their plans have been boosted by proposals put forward by the Nigerian government centred on a new museum for Benin art located in Benin City. “Plans are still ongoing to set up the museum in the royal palace of Benin . . . This would be the safest place in Edo state as it is culturally sacred,” says a Nigerian government spokesman.
The British Museum holds some 700 objects from Benin. Berlin State Museums also has an extensive collection of Benin treasures, part of which is due to go on display in the new Humboldt Forum culture complex, which opens next year in the German capital. Both institutions form part of the Benin Dialogue Group; the crucial question is whether they will lend their Benin works to the planned museum in Benin City.
At the British Museum, the wheels are turning. A governmental delegation from Nigeria attended a meeting in March with members of the museum’s Africa section and representatives of other European museums that have Benin collections. “At that meeting, a declaration was proposed that outlined an intention to work towards a permanent, but rotating, exhibition [in Nigeria] of loaned objects from the Kingdom of Benin,” a museum spokeswoman says.
In Germany the debate around repatriating non-European artefacts is heating up. The German Lost Art Foundation says it will provide funding in 2019 for research projects investigating the provenance of objects from “colonial contexts in German public institutions”. In May, the German culture minister Monika Grütters presented a code of conduct for museums handling such artefacts. Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz (the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation), which oversees Berlin State Museums, says it supports displaying Benin objects in Benin City.
Back at Paris Biennale, the participating tribal art dealer Anthony Meyer, strikes a note of caution. “We have inherited a situation caused by history and politicians. It is a subject which needs a steady approach, and not a knee-jerk reaction to President Macron’s statement,” he says.

Quilting Adventures: Side of the Road .... homage to an unknown quilter!
Side of the Road .... homage to an unknown quilter!
What I do want to share with you is this beautiful quilt that a customer of Fibre Junction, Claire, graciously let be borrow to study the design and re-create the pattern. The story of this quilt is quite sad, but luckily it has a happy ending.
Claire found this stunning quilt on the side of the road, in a trash bin, some 20 odd years ago. It was filthy .... Yes, this is a rescued quilt!
The quilt is made using feedsacks dating from 1930 to late 1940's, hand quilted and the batting is cotton. Unfortunately, there is no label on the quilt, so the quilter is unknown.
Here you get a better view of the hand quilting. Where there is some shifting of the batting, the stitches are intact, so I'm puzzled as to why the batting shifted so much.
You can actually see the maker's pencil markings and how the cotton batting shifted to one area.
The fabrics are absolutely gorgeous, the colours retained most of their vibrancy despite the bleaching the quilt had to undergo in order to remove the filth.
Check out this indigo blue.
I do like how the maker made the backing work for the size of the quilt by adding pieces here and there.
And .... I even found a make do! Is that cool or what?
I must admit, I enjoyed studying this quilt, looking for unique finds. For one thing, one of the sides of the sawtooth border has one extra half square triangle than the other. Yes, it is lopsided, but you wouldn't see that when the quilt is opened. Unlike today, math was not a pre-occupation for our ancestral quilters, nor was perfection, which is really what makes their quilts so beautiful.
It is a shame, yet a blessing that this quilt was discarded as rubbish. Claire enjoys this quilt and has allowed myself and many of the Prairie Women Sewing Circle club members to admire it's beauty. Thank you Claire for your willingness to share your treasure.
I have since worked out the instructions and plan on making the pattern available soon. I have named this quilt Side of the Road - it is my way of paying homage to the maker of this quilt.
Thank you for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed the entry! Cheers!
I love this pattern too!
Please save a pattern for me!
It is so wonderful that she found it before it was lost to the dump, what a beautiful quilt and fabrics.
Please let us know when the pattern is available, Carole. I'd love to make one.
What an absolutely beautiful quilt. All the colors are awesome, good luck with the pattern.
What a great story and a happy ending for this gorgeous quilt! It was meant to be!
Wow -- What a treasure -- it's gorgeous. That would be a super fun quilt to re-create!
I'm originally from Montréal, Québec. Creativity and curiosity is a part of my life. I have a Master of Arts in the History and Philosophy of Religion! I recently closed my quilt shoppe Fibre Junction. It was eight wonderful years of indulging in my passion for quilting and education. It is now time to start a new adventure. Will you join me?

SAN DIEGO and MUNICH – August 12, 2015 – Synteract has recently passed a re-audit required by the BVMA, the Federal Association of Contract Research Organizations in Germany, to renew its certification to remain on the list of approved BVMA vendors in Germany.
BVMA was founded in July 1991 to represent CROs based in Germany or German-speaking countries. To become a member, CROs must meet certain criteria and successfully participate in and complete a quality assurance audit. Additional criteria includes conducting commercial activity as a contract research organization in Germany for a minimum of two years and providing at least two letters of reference from other member companies. In addition, the applicant must agree to meet the organization’s strict code of ethics.
In order to ensure that each member continues to satisfy the high quality demands, all members voluntarily undergo re-auditing every three years. The General Assembly appoints an external organization to carry out this task and determines the focus of attention for each re-audit. This self-imposed measure ensures that all member companies maintain the high quality standard and allows them to gain credibility in the marketplace that sets them apart from non-member competitors.
The member companies of the BVMA maintain a lively exchange of information on all topics of importance to the CRO industry, including questions of liability and insurance, education and training, and trends in the pharmaceutical and clinical research industry. Other associations, institutions and the press consider the BVMA as the authoritative body representing the interests of German CROs. All member companies are represented by the Executive Board of the BVMA for actions affecting the industry.

One. Earlier this week I was feeling crafty, so I went to a thrift store down the street for some inspiration. They were having a 50% off sale of all of their frames and prints, so I picked up an ugly dated print in a gold frame for $5.00. A few strips of painters tape and some chalkboard spray paint later we now have chalkboard for our kitchen! I just taped around the edges and spray painted over the glass. It was super simple, and it looks great on our wall.
Two. Greenville had a new restaurant to open this week, Yard House. It's a national chain, and they just opened up their first South Carolina restaurant in Greenville this week. T and I stopped by on Wednesday night. We tried samples of several of their menu items, and had a couple of beers. We were both very impressed with the quality of food they offered, it's not your typical bar food. They also offer over 100 beers on tap and change them out daily. T was like a kid in a candy store. Finally, a sports bar with good beer and good food.
Three. These boots, mind=blown. They're sold out on MYHABIT, but I've been added to the wait list for three different sizes. Fingers crossed someone returns a pair. How awesome are they? I could definitely justify buying a pair of boots if they can be worn as booties too, right?
Four. It's not too late to enter the giveaway for a pair of Ja-vie flats! My sister April of A. Liz Adventures and I are hosting a giveaway for a free pair of Ja-vies. These shoes are awesome, I'm wearing mine today to keep my feet dry on this rainy Friday in Greenville. Read more about the giveaway here.
Five. My mom and dad are coming into town this weekend to stay with us. It's the first time in over six months that they'll be visiting our house, and I'm so excited! We've got big plans. Dinner and drinks out tonight followed by the Clemson vs. N.C. State game tomorrow. Dad is a NCSU grad, so we've got a little friendly rivalry going on. Go Tigers!
Yard House looks like a place that I would enjoy! You cannot beat a sports bar that has great food and drinks. Have fun in Clemson tomorrow!
That chalkboard frame is awesome, Laura!
Love that chalkboard you whipped up for your kitchen - so fun! Hope you enjoy the time with your fam this weekend.
My fingers are totally crossed for that giveaway! I'd love those shoes! And how about those Tigers yesterday? I was so proud! Can't wait to try out Yard House when I visit!

Billy Wright was a fine right-halfback and later a superb central defender. While not the most talented player of his day, he was disciplined, dedicated, reliable, consistent, courageous, resourceful, intelligent and versatile, a wonderful sportsman on the pitch--never sent off or even cautioned--and unfailingly courteous and modest off it. Because of these qualities, he emerged after the Second War--an era desperately needing the escape sport and its heroes provided--as the most widely loved footballer in England. No player before or since has held such a universal grip on the English public's admiration. His unparalleled popularity lasted his entire Football League career, from the post-war resumption of league play in 1946 until his retirement in 1959. He became the symbol of and ambassador for the England team and English football in general.
Essayist Jon Horne has written that Wright was "the sort of man who can only be spoken of in clichés." Indeed, Wright almost did it all.
He captained Wolverhampton Wanderers to the F.A. Cup in 1949 and to three Football League championships in 1954, 1958 and 1959. The Football Writers' Association voted him Footballer of the Year in 1952, and in 1957 he finished second to Real Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stefano in the voting for France Football's European Footballer of the Year.
He played for the national team throughout his entire career, from the first post-war match in 1946 to the last match of the 1958-59 season, and became the first player in the world to earn 100 caps, finishing with 105. Although players had to be one of the starting 11 to earn a cap because no substitutions were permitted and although the Football Association's international selectors often changed lineups on a whim, he missed only three of the 108 matches England played over his 13 seasons, two of them because of injury and all of them in the 1950-51 season. He captained the national team 90 times, a still-standing world record equalled only by Bobby Moore and apparently now unsurpassable. He led his national side at three World Cups, still another world record. And, finally, he played in 70 consecutive national team matches, all as captain, world records no one will ever equal, captain or not.
Norman Giller's "official biography" faithfully traces Wright's achievement-laden career. It is as much autobiography as biography. Wright originally asked Giller, the noted football journalist, author and historian who had ghost-written Wright's weekly newspaper column during the 1960's, to collaborate on an autobiography. But Wright died of cancer at 70 in 1994, before the book could be written. Fortunately, Wright's widow Joy, one of the singing Beverley Sisters, agreed with Giller that the project ought not to be shelved and gave him access to Wright's extensive private collection of papers and mementos. Even more fortunately, Giller already had conducted lengthy interviews of Wright for the aborted autobiography.
These fascinating interviews form the heart of the book. Giller takes us match by match through Wright's entire England career and, for the sake of completeness, even includes the three matches Wright missed in 1950-51. Each match is accompanied by the England lineup, Giller's account of the match highlights and then Wright's memories of the match and surrounding events. Along the way, Wright also gives his views on milestones in his club career. Giller puts it all in context through season-by-season summaries, which paint a vivid picture of football as it was half a century ago in a vibrant age of magnificent players and personalities.
What emerges is an invaluable history of the England team of 1946 to 1959 from the perspective of its captain. The great events of the time--the fantastic victories of the great post-war side over Portugal and Italy, the first World Cup venture to Brazil in 1950, the first matches against Argentina, the watershed losses to Hungary, the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, the resounding victories against World Cup holders Germany and heirs-in-waiting Brazil, the devastation the 1958 Munich air crash wrought on the national team, the World Cup in Sweden a few months later, the annually-renewed rivalry with Scotland and many others--are recounted from Wright's point of view.
The book will bring back distant memories for those who witnessed a truly golden era of English football as Wright tells us about a dazzling array of unforgettable stars, among them Stanley Matthews, Frank Swift, Tommy Lawton, Raich Carter, Wilf Mannion, Tom Finney, Stan Mortensen, Jackie Milburn, Len Shackleton, Roy Bentley, Johnny Hancocks, Jimmy Mullen, Neil Franklin, Alf Ramsey, Nat Lofthouse, Tommy Taylor, Duncan Edwards, Roger Byrne, Jimmy Dickinson, Ron Flowers, Johnny Haynes, Bobby Robson, Bobby Charlton, Jimmy Greaves and Don Howe.
More important, this book is a must-read for younger fans who have any ambition to know the English game's history. For their benefit, Giller explains that Billy and Joy were the David Beckham and Posh Spice of their time. But to those old enough to have seen Billy grace the world's football grounds and hear the lovely Beverley Sisters sing when they were chart-toppers, Becks and Posh are the Billy and Joy of their time, albeit they still have a long way to go to match Billy and Joy's accomplishments.
Giller intended to write a tribute to Wright, and he has achieved that admirably. The book was plainly prepared with a great deal of affection by one who not only knew the game of the 1940's and 1950's but also was a friend of his subject. After a moving account of Wright's memorial service in Wolverhampton, which was followed by the private scattering of his ashes at the Wolves' Molineux Ground, Giller closes the book with three collections of reminiscences, from media figures who saw Wright play, from the fans and from his family and friends. Those who witnessed Wright's era are getting older now, and we are grateful that Giller has given us this finely-crafted piece of football history before memories of it are lost for ever.
That is not to say that Giller ignores some saddening events in Wright's later life, his sacking as manager of Arsenal in 1966, his bout with alcoholism while he was a sports television executive and his life-ending illness. A teetotaller throughout his playing career, Wright began to drink heavily when his television job took him away from his beloved wife Joy and two daughters. He gradually descended into alcoholism, but with the help of friends, including Jimmy Greaves, himself a recovering alcoholic, he found Alcoholics Anonymous and sobriety, which he and Joy always regarded as his "greatest victory." "I could fill this book with stories of his drinking escapades," some of which were "horrendous, others hilarious," Giller writes, "[b]ut I refuse to rain on my hero" and "scar his portrait." Giller is surely right that it is enough to know Wright had an alcohol problem and that he beat it; further details are pointless. For once a football writer has the judgment to know where to draw the line and the forbearance to do so despite the temptation to boost book sales and gain sensational tabloid serialisation.
We thoroughly enjoyed this book. It left us sorry we had finished it and wishing we still had to begin it all over again--the highest praise possible for any book. What we liked most is that it is almost exclusively about football--the game itself--and has very little in it about off-the-pitch peccadilloes. That, of course, is largely because of who its subject is--Billy Wright, indeed a hero for all seasons.
Billy Wright: A Hero for All Seasons is available at most booksellers and may also be purchased through a website Giller has set up to honour Wright and promote the book. Fans may also contribute their tributes for publication on the website.

Many successful companies begin as hobbies or recreational pursuits. Sports lovers, in particular, can discover ample ways to turn their passions into lucrative business ventures.
1. Sports apparel: Odds are, your neighbourhood is filled with sports clubs, from pre-professional leagues, schools, and children’s sports clubs. Each one these teams want uniforms, along with the participants’ friends and family will probably wish to buy fan gear and personalised items to demonstrate their support. So why not set up a business who supplies custom basketball uniforms to local teams as well as a basketball jersey design service to help teams stand out and be unique. You could specialise in any sport, such as swimming suits, gymnastics leotards, and tracksuits or even soccer uniforms.
2. Team sports photography and memorabilia: today anyone can take a decent photo on their phone, but there is nothing like a quality team photograph before a big game, a great action shot to keep for years to come. Build a company based around team photography, especially if you already have some experience in the photography field.
3. Golf gear cleaning and repairs: Golf is a costly hobby, and lots of gamers are prepared to spend huge dollars to obtain a competitive advantage. If your home is close to a golf course or in a golf community, think about beginning a gear cleaning and maintenance company. Rich golf enthusiasts are not going to clean their own clubs and will be looking for a professional with great attention to detail to do it for them.
4. Fitness boot camp: Extreme sports are a fast-paced market. Fitness boot camps and intense programs are always in demand from those looking for a fast fitness fix. You could hold camps outdoors or partner with local gyms. Find a niche in the industry such as fat blasting boot camp or fitness camps for recent mothers looking to slim down.
5. Boxing gym: Together with intense sports, combat sports like mixed martial arts and kickboxing have exploded in popularity because the Ultimate Fighting Championship has gained recognition. Open a boxing gym to capitalise on this tendency. You can offer a range of martial arts style depending on your expertise and connections, there is high demand for wrestling training due to its intensity and effectiveness as well as an increase in youth pro wrestling for young enthusiasts.
6. Walking tours: Blend scenery and fitness. If you reside in a tourist destination relegated to walking, look at offering excursions on foot. Supplying active travellers having an experience that suits their lifestyle can be valuable. For more adventurous and rugged customers, you may think about overnight trekking tours, also.
7. Indoor parks and playgrounds: Parents are always looking for entertainment options for kids, especially on the holidays and weekends. This is where indoor playgrounds and facilities come in. Trampoline parks are popular as well as indoor mazes and play equipment. You can combine you indoor playground with a small cafe or food outlet as parents are hanging out for hours and children will surely be hungry after all the running and playing.
8. Canoeing teacher: or any sports instructor for this matter. In case you’ve got a talent and enthusiasm for some game, then introducing it to novices could be rewarding in a variety of ways. Becoming an instructor for beginners and children is an easy way to turn your hobbies and expertise into a business. Start recruiting clients at schools and other community clubs as well as advertising at local parks and playgrounds.
9. Fantasy sports: Who is on your dream team? The dream sports trend has exploded in size, and organisations are finding success serving this particular demographic. There are now businesses that provide insurance for players as well as other services such as technical analysis and professional tips. As this area continues to expand there may be other opportunities for business.
10. Driving range: Whether you purchase a current place or begin from scratch, a driving range can help keep you near a game you love and supply income for substantially less than the expense of a golf program. Keep it fundamental and basic, or include meals, arcade games, and activities for children, based on your budget and interests.
11. Paintball/laser tag: Both these sports have loyal followers and prove to be popular as recreational activities and birthday parties. If you have a passion for fun and innovation then these sports are for you. Paintball can be exhilarating and fun for people of all ages and will always be popular. Laser tag has seen several technological innovations in recent years including 3D imaging and high-tech lasers. Plus you can make additional revenue by having a bar or casual dining at your venue.

Synchronisation by the United States Embassy in Barbados and the Regional Security System would allow for effective short- and long-term planning for security assistance and cooperation within the Eastern Caribbean.
US Ambassador to Barbados, Dr. Larry Palmer, gave this assurance earlier today while delivering the closing remarks at the Eastern Caribbean Security Seminar at the Crane Hotel, St. Philip.
“This security conference has allowed us to come together to plan our work for the coming months and years. We have synchronised our foreign military finance efforts to make sure the right equipment is acquired to help support and execute your missions,” Palmer said.
The diplomat added that through its expanding relationship via the State Partnership Programme, the US had also been able to increase the number of exchange events with the region’s defence forces, police special service units, and the coast guard/maritime police agencies.
He noted that the state of Florida and the United States Virgin Islands were the state partners for the Eastern Caribbean. Palmer added that one highlight from this year was the enhancement of maritime security within the RSS through the Secure Seas Programme, a part of the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative.
The ambassador recalled that the partnership was launched by President Obama and Caribbean leaders in 2009, pointing out that interceptor boats and the installed communications systems provided the RSS with an improved capacity to interdict suspected illicit traffickers.
“Not only are these high-tech vessels useful for their ability to interdict illicit traffickers, they are also ideal platforms to engage in other traditional public safety maritime operations such as search and rescue. This was highlighted just recently in Antigua, as their coast guard’s new interceptor vessels were called into action to help lead an intensive 19 hour search for four people, including two boys aged four and seven,” Palmer said.

The kids are due home from school in about an hour and I thought I would surprise them with fresh baked gingersnaps. Who doesn’t get excited when they walk into a house filled with a sweet and spicy aroma? It’s been a long time since I’ve made gingersnaps and decades (OMG! DECADES!) since I’ve learned how to make them. Gingersnaps were the first cookie I ever learned how to make. You’d think it would have been something classic like oatmeal raisin or chocolate chip but there weren’t always raisins or chocolate chips in Grandma’s pantry. She showed me how to make the first batch and together we came up with something remarkably edible.
The next time I was over for a baking session happened to be during hunting season. Grandpa had a lot of land and many friends who came by every year during this time. They often stayed the weekend which created a huge workload for Grandma. She was up before dawn to make them a hearty breakfast and pack them a lunch (which most likely consisted of some kind of homemade sausage or headcheese with homemade bread or some pickled eggs) After they were gone, there was no rest stop for my Grandma. She would then head out to the garden to finish harvesting the last of the garden veggies or be putting up preserves, most likely tomatoes or making sauerkraut. If the garden was all in and the canning was finished she would be busy sewing. She made all of my Grandpa’s clothes, and still does to this day.
Since the men would be ‘starving’ when they returned later that day, it fell upon eight year old me to make some cookies. I followed the recipe ‘to plan’ just as she had showed me but when I got to the 1/4 tsp. of cloves, all I could find was whole cloves and since the recipe didn’t specify I just chucked them in. Hours later, the first hunter to bite into one of my ‘special’ home made cookies got quite the surprise. His face went beet red and he coughed a bit before he took a swig of his coffee. He made sure to compliment me on my delicious cookies and I was so proud that I had helped! It wasn’t until years later that Grandma actually reminded me of those cookies and told me that the hunter always asked if I had made the cookies before he took a bite.
I guess I eventually figured out that I needed to use ground cloves on my own. The cookies always seem to disappear rapidly from my kitchen these days with no complaints.
Form dough into small balls and roll them in a little white sugar.
Place on cookie sheets and bake at 350 F for 12 to 15 minutes depending on if you like them soft and chewy or hard.
These are incredible, my hubs loves gingersnaps. Plus we just love the word Ginger, it’s the name of our horse. Lol. Love the crackle, these are perfectly made. I must try them.
Growing up I had a corgi named Ginger.

I am reading Turansky and Millers’ Say Goodbye to Whining, Complaining, and Bad Attitudes in You and Your Kids right now for a reading group for homeschool moms that I joined, and I am really loving it so far.
I have heard them speak before, and I loved the points that they made about honor vs. respect, so I want to chat about them!
Wow, how many times have I seen that? Families focus on respect, and they end up with behaviors that, at least for a time, look respectful, but then they turn sour as the true heart is revealed in time.
The Greek word that is often translated “honor” in the New Testament comes from timae which means “worth” or “value.” It’s one thing to respect (fear) God because of his tremendous power and greatness and another thing to honor (value) him because of those qualities.
They mention that both honor and respect have their place, but we need to remember that we are told in Romans 12:10 to “Honor one another above yourselves.” This means “treating people as special, doing more than what’s expected, and having a good attitude (definition also from Turansky and Miller).” If we are teaching our children to honor rather than just respect, then it will go to a deeper level than mere behavior modification. Instead we are teaching their hearts.
The goal of discipline is to help children not only act correctly, but also to think correctly and to become the people God made them to be. Honor addresses what’s going on below the surface and considers a child’s heart. When you teach children to change their hearts, you will see them make attitude adjustments, not just behavioral changes. You’ll get to the root of disobedience or immaturity, and you’ll help your children make lifelong changes.
I can’t wait to move on to the next chapter!
For today I am going to try to focus on honoring my husband and my children, and being a good model of honor. I can already tell that this is an area that will need a significant amount of work in my life… I’m looking forward to the journey.

A rare treat! I met some of my old college buddies on Saturday night for a meal in Covent Garden in London. It is turning into an annual reunion, which is lovely. Only five of us could make it this time. The bad selfie above is what we look like now and the one below is what some of us used to look like. Where has the time gone? It only seems like yesterday that we were 18 and now we have all hit 50! Can you spot me?
The city was heaving as it was Black Friday weekend and the last part of my underground journey was horrible – everybody squeezed on top of each other. I deeply dislike both crowds and the tube so I was glad to get there. It was worth it. We had a lovely evening and the journey home was a bit better.
Mr S dragged me out for a walk on Sunday – he fancied kicking a few leaves about! It was what I needed – a bit of fresh air and exercise.
I managed to almost finish my Christmas shopping this weekend. I found a few Black Friday bargains. I was buying anyway – I tend not to get dragged into the hype usually. All bought online -I wasn’t going to brace the crowds twice in one weekend!!
« Are you in a JAM?
I was in town on Black Friday too, having completely forgotten the day!
Luckily Marble Arch station was clear so the journey home was ok! I even got a seat after 2 stops!!
SevdayvI hope to experience London at Christmas time. I’m a proper tourist so the crowds would be just more for me to be awed by. I love a catchup with friends. I’m a blink we’re 18 again.

Committing to a year-long project can be incredibly daunting.
Over the last year, I’ve been working on a personal project to read 52 books in 52 weeks. I recently did a podcast with my good friend (and king of the 365), Will, in which we discussed each of our current projects, and how others can make the most of theirs.
The following are tips I've either learned throughout my project, or that I wish someone would have mentioned to me before I started.
Whatever you choose, you're going to be doing it between 50 and 365 times. So even if it only costs a few bucks to do, or if you spend a couple dollars at the local coffee shop while you work on it, that money adds up quickly.
I’m sure some of you have the discretionary funds for it, but why spend more than you need? Maybe you need to buy equipment before you start, which is perfectly reasonable, but keep daily spending to a minimum.
2. Sleep well and exercise often.
Unless you’ve been given a rare gift, you’re going to be doing this year-long project on your free time, outside of your 9 to 5.
Accordingly, you’re going to need to be in great (or better) shape, so you have the energy and mental fortitude to keep your project going strong.
3. Get up half an hour earlier.
What works for me is getting up half an hour earlier than I would otherwise. If getting up a little earlier to work on your project is simply not an option, I’d encourage you to prove yourself wrong.
If during your lunch break or before going to bed is best for you, make time for your project then.
4. Work on it daily, even if it’s not a daily goal.
For many year-long projects, one goal is to become an expert on that topic, or to at least get a lot better at it.
Any musician, athlete or entrepreneur will tell you, you have to work daily to reach your goals. Sure, it’s fine to spend more or less time on your project as life events allow, but don't miss a day.
5. Make sure you have short-term checkpoints along the way.
A year of ambiguity can be miserable.
It’s also easy to procrastinate if your only checkpoint is the end of that year. Maybe you’re writing or doing photography, which gives way for daily accomplishments.
Maybe you need to accomplish X within a week or within a few months. Whatever you think is best for your particular project, give yourself checkpoints.
I strongly encourage checkpoints at the one week, one month, three month and six month marks, if not more frequently.
6. Tell everyone what you’re doing.
Once you verbalize something, and especially once you put it in writing, that commitment becomes much more tangible.
Now you have something to hold yourself to that isn’t just a made up thought, sitting alone inside your head. I wish I had told more people early on what I was doing, and hadn’t worried about it seeming weird to people.
As I’ve spent more and more time on my project, and as it’s naturally come up in more conversations, I’ve been much more diligent. The support I’ve gotten from family and friends has often encouraged me to keep going when I've felt burnt out, and for many, this support can be all the difference.
7. Do something you actually enjoy, not just what you feel obligated to do.
If you’re anything like the average 365-er, you’re going to spend about 10 hours or more on this project every single week.
Do you really want to make that kind of year-long commitment to something you don’t enjoy? If you hate reading, don’t make yourself read a book a week.
If you’re not a tech enthusiast, don’t make yourself learn code. Build upon your strengths. You’ll see more growth, and enjoy the process far more.
8. Have a plan or end goal for what you’ll do with your project.
Have an idea for what will come of your project at day 366. For instance, I wish I had set out to do a brief review of every book I read.
I will, however, do a full write-up on my project, along with tips on how others can do something similar. Whatever you choose to do, have an idea for finishing it.
If you want to write every day, for example, what is that going to turn into? Are you writing a book? Are you working toward becoming a freelancer?
9. Define what you want to accomplish through it.
In line with the above point, know what you actually want to accomplish through your project.
For instance, do you want to be able to quit your current job and work for yourself? Do you want this project to get you a better job? Do you want to become an expert on this topic?
I wish I had better defined what I wanted to accomplish through my project. All I knew when I started was I loved reading, and I wanted to make it a priority.
But had I created more tangible goals, such as to create a blog of book reviews, I could have done a much better job along the way of furthering myself and my literacy skills.
10. Surround yourself with your goal’s environment.
If your goal is centered around photography or art, spend time in museums and galleries. If your goal is to get better at writing, spend time in open work spaces, like coffee shops or libraries.
Every Sunday, for example, I go to the local Barnes & Noble to read with a cup of coffee. It’s really enjoyable, smells like freshly printed bestsellers and encourages me to fulfill the very point of the location: reading.
Completing a year-long project is not easy, no matter how rewarding it may be. I hope you'll find these tips valuable along your journey, and you're able to make the most of your 365.

Wills are a critical tool for outlining one’s wishes for the distribution of assets, guardianship of minor children, and the designation of an Executor who takes care of administering the estate. Despite this, a November 2010 survey found that only 51% of B.C. adults have a Will in place. Without a Will, the Court will determine who will be the Executor, and the law will decide who is entitled to the estate.
A Power of Attorney allows a capable adult to appoint a person or persons to handle their financial and legal matters in the event they are unable to do so themselves or need assistance. The document also specifies whether these individuals are allowed to act separately or required to act together. Because of the financial authority conveyed, it is critical that the Adult fully understands what powers they are granting with this document and have complete trust in the person they are appointing. It also allows the Adult to compensate their designated attorney for performing actions on their behalf.
A Deed of Gift documents a significant gift to another person during one’s lifetime. When prepared and notarized by a Notary, it proves the donor’s intention for the gift which can be required to counter undue influence or arguments after the donor’s death. This can also be useful in circumstances where a person near death wants to transfer their assets or home into joint tenancy or wants to give a significant sum of money or gift to another person during their lifetime.
Advance Directives document instructions to doctors, nurses and other healthcare providers for an individual’s future healthcare. This ensures their wishes will be carried out by healthcare providers if they are unable to express them in the future.
We can help determine the appropriate scope for specific representative(s).

I opened the heavy door and looked into the rich countryside. Everything that I wanted was within view, yet I was reluctant to go forward. This wasn’t a new feeling: I had spent months and years glancing up from mundane tasks, peering enviously out through cracks and holes in the walls, only to finding another task to restrict my own vision. I came to resent my own stammering hesitation – I had stepped out and away from the high bleak walls many times only to later reconsider and slowly retreat, under a pretense of my own imagination, to the comfort of the known.
This irked me because on all previous forays I had never seen or heard anything to give me cause for fear. Indeed not even the unseen noises in the dark ever caused me fright. Admittedly the sounds of raucous laughter and passionate debate that drifted from nearby camp fires had sometimes caused my mind to turn inwards, seeking and always finding vulnerabilities. But to blame the revelers would be unfair: each and every time I summoned courage to approach the smiling faces I was received with warmth, praise and encouragement. No, the malignity was within. And the predator could cut through the knots of oppressive logic which I had weaved from fears, justifications and intricate excuses.
Taking a step forward I left those thoughts to one side and looked again into the distance. I breathed the fresh air, letting it swell my chest. It seemed to taste of deep greens and bright blues, all those technicolored possibilities beyond the cold stone. I wondered what lay beyond the forest clearing, or what it would be like to stretch out and look up at the swaying branches. For a brief moment my eyes rested on an area at the horizon where fields and stretching trees seemed to brush through the passing clouds. Then I wondered what it would be like to stand up there and look back to where I now stood and reflect on the distance I had traveled. So many possibilities. Possibilities that had never and would never be found within the old confines. The destination wouldn’t define this journey, just the possibilities.
I stepped out, as I had done before and promised never to go back.

I wanted to reach out to you to thank you for sending me your book. My family law practice just celebrated its first anniversary and your books on practice management and forms have been so helpful; this one is helping me re-shape how I see the future of how I would like to represent clients.
If you ever make it to Kansas City look me up- I'd love to meet you in person.
Again, thank you for your gift, and sharing your work and talent with us all.
I wanted to thank you for the insight you offer in How to Build and Manage a Family Law Practice. I picked up your book a few months ago and reading it has given me the confidence to begin building a unique family law practice in St. Louis, Missouri. I have a vision for my clients that I hope to implement over time.
Thank you, again, for the inspiration!
Your book is fantastic. I’m only on chapter 12 and I’ve already made several large changes to my practice (conflicts check system, an ABCD client list, and informational form letters). Thank you.
And I hope you’ll consider writing another. Speaking as a young lawyer, there needs to be more books like this out there.
First let me compliment you on your excellent books. I am an attorney in Phoenix, Arizona opening my solo practice. My practice focuses on child custody and adoption cases in which the family is facing challenges related to child abuse, neglect, abandonment or disability. I am asking every person I hire to read your book on family law practice.
We purchased your book “Forms, Checklist, and Procedures for the Family Lawyer” and enjoyed it very much.
Mark A. Chinn, an accomplished and successful family lawyer, has written a guidebook on managing a family law practice. The book, HOW TO BUILD AND MANAGE A FAMILY LAW PRACTICE (American Bar Association, 2006), is an indispensible resource for setting office policy regarding client management as well as all other aspects of running a family law practice.
I’ve become a big fan of yours over the last couple of years through my use of your form books. They have become a great assett and I’ve recommended everyone I talk to to pick them up. Thanks for what you do.
I have it too – very practical advice. Thanks Mark – you should Value Price it!
I have Mark Chin’s e-book, Dumping the Billable Hour, and it is a great resource.
Thanks for accepting my friendship request. Your family law blog is going to be a tremendous resource for me. I occasionally handle family law cases, and I can certainly understand how one could develop a passion for this area of the law. Almost every family law matter in which I have been involved evoked an intensity and focus that other types of cases usually just do not. So I admire your chosen field of practice and the exceptional contribution that you make to our profession by educating many of us, and more significantly, by setting such a high bar of hard work and professionalism.
Your book, The Constructive Divorce, is a particular favorite of mine. I strongly believe that your methods of handling family law issues in a way that “leaves a family left standing, even if there is no marriage” should be mandatory law school material. It is unfortunate that family law is taught, for the most part, without any ethical underpinning. Your practical approach to affording dignity and respect to the family as an institution, and to the children who are forever changed, should be the foundation of every practice.
On a separate note, your website is absolutely amazing! I need to have one developed — what company did yours?
I am writing today primarily to thank you for taking time to write such excellent publications through the ABA. I’ve read each of them, and now follow your website actively.
How to Build and Manage a Family Law Practice inspired me to consider reentering the practice of law in a small firm environment and help people. And I continue to view you and your practice as a model of an attorney I could become.
Read your book about building a family law practice cover to cover on a plane from Fargo ND to Phoenix AZ the other day and just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful resource you have given me. As a fairly new attorney(5 years in practice, 4.5 years into my solo family law practice) this book will sit on my desk from now on and I plan to use it as a gift to some friends and colleagues. It will help me to serve my clients much better.
Mark’s third book, Forms, Checklists and Procedures for the Family Lawyer, published by the American Bar Association has received a stunning review from the Michigan Family Law Society. You may read it here.
I recently finished reading your book for the third or fourth time. I wish I had read it a while back.
I read your book and loved it! It is now my guide for my family law practice. I am in a small town in upstate South Carolina. I saw your name as one of Melissa Brown’s contacts and wanted to introduce myself to you. I met Melissa at an Atticus seminar in Asheville and her enthusiasm with Atticus swayed me to hire them as my attorney coach as well. If I can ever be of service, please do not hesitate to call.
Thanks for sending me a copy of your book, ans thanks especially for mentioning me. That is a real honor. I have started reading the book and love it. It is full of sounds advice and solid wisdom, not only for starting a family law practice, but also for living. I wish I had it 30 years ago.
It is good to hear from you. Last August, I closed my practice after accepting a position as Professor of Law at Barkley School of Law in Paducah, KY. By the way, I have been recommending your book to students, especially those who are interested in Family Law or in Opening their own firms. At least two of the students have read the book and found it illuminating. Please let me know if you have any other books or articles forthcoming.
Yours was the first book I purchased when I went out on my own, and it is a tremendous resource.
Thanks very much for your book, How to Build and Manage a Family Law Practice. I’ve been practicing divorce law for many years, so I especially admire your emphais on maintaining balance, which, sadly, is an uncommon trait among so many of my colleagues.
If you’re ever up this way, give me a call and I’ll buy you a nice lunch.
I just finished your Family Law Office Management Guide book. I made many, many note for myself and gained valuable information from your experience. I truly appreciate your passion for family law and the critical responsibilities that come with it. Thanks for the interesting and productive read.
Your book is wonderful. Congratulations to you — it is a real accomplishment, and will be incredibly helpful. One of my students has been raving about it. She’s reading it simply becasue she’s intersted in Family Law practice and wants to learn what the real practice is like.
Here’s my nerdy admission….I read your entire book last night. It sounded just like you, so apprently the rumor about a ghost writer must be false.
I’m having each memebr of my team read it since it will be a wonderful confirmation of our very similar practice philosophy and actions.
I absolutely loved your book How to Build and Manage a Family Law Practice. It was exactly what I was looking for as a brand new lawyer.
I have just finished reading your book How to Build and Manage a Family Law Practice and I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed it. I am a family law attorney in Georgia, and I started my own firm 2 years ago, and I wish I had had this book starting out. Although I did manage to do some things right, your book has given me invaluable and practical advice on how to improve my firm from the ground up. My goal is to build a practice based on client care, legal expertise, respectful interaction with opposing counsel, and an objective to achieve the most amicable solution in my clients’ cases , and your firm is certainly a successful model of what I would like to achieve.
Thanks again for such a thoughtful and well-written book, and best wishes for continued success with your practice.
I am in the process of building a family law practice. I recently purchases a copy of your book, How to Build and Manage a Family Law Practice. Your advice and the forms included on the CD with th book have been invaluable. Thank you for your outstanding work.
I just wanted to take a moment and tell you how much I enjoyed your new book. (I had to violate a few of your rules, but I finished the text yesterday.) It was excellent.
Even though I gave up family law and have no plans to return to that field, I still got a lot of good ideas that could (and should) be used in my practice.
The latest column you wrote and published in the Madison County Herald was wonderful. I could relate to this column because my father, whom I dearly love and admire because of his tenderness and toughness, was away much of the time while I was growing up in the footboard of the Delta. He was doing his best to make us a living and we always had more than we actually needed; even though we were considered poor. In fact, I used to steal the Jimmy Durante line from television every night I would go to bed. Durante used to say… Good night Mrs. Calabash wherever you are; I’d say… Good night Daddy wherever you are.
I made a decision in 1990 (not soon enough) not to miss any of my children’s activities; even if business suffered but it didn’t. I wish I had made this decision six or seven years earlier.
Mark thanks for sharing with everyone.
Don Little is a long-time friend of mine and he forwarded this article to me. I want to tell you how great it is to hear a story like this. Thank you for taking time to recognize the kindness of the South. We have begun to see “the wave” dwindle in some areas. I reside in Holly Springs, MS, and work in Olive Branch, a 20-mile commute one-way. My daily commute is all backroads, and the wave is still going strong, but mostly among the older and middle-age generation. The younger generation? Let’s just say they ain’t gotta clue. I can relate to your conversation with your daughter. Take care and thanks again for the article.
I enjoyed your article on Mississippi traditions in the Sun Herald paper. It’s true. Your sister needs to visit more often!
A co-worker just brought me the article you wrote about Dads spending time with their children. I think I have to say this is your best work….from the heart! I cannot believe little Conley is 9….man how time flies! I am happy to see that everything is going great and life is going well for you. I’ll have to drop by some time very soon to say hello and deliver some hugs. It’s been too long!!!
Should I leave the house?

Everyone remembers an old boss who may have resembled a drill sergeant, or an office that felt like a boot camp.
While the thought of shaping your team using military techniques may sound old world or daunting, research suggests that innovative tactics used by specialized military units may also help mould other groups into high-performing, world class teams.
The military focuses on developing perseverance and strength in each soldier, and training them to make the most out of their resources in whatever situation they may find themselves in – what if your team could do the same?

The 15th annual International Bullying Prevention Conference, November 5-7 in San Diego brings together professionals working with youth across the globe on bullying prevention.
SAN DIEGO, CA, February 28, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ — Keynote presenters at the bullying prevention conference include social activist Monica Lewinsky, whose story is powerful and relatable to all of us simply because we live and work within a culture where shame and humiliation are used to divide, tear down, and otherwise destroy others emotionally and reputationally. Ms. Lewinsky is an International public speaker and Contributing Editor to Vanity Fair. She is an ambassador to the Diana Award’s Anti-Bullying Program and a founding member of the Childhood Resilience Foundation.
Through an interactive, challenging and energetic closing keynote, Dr. Eddie Moore will contextualize our current situation while examining and exploring the major issues of diversity, privilege, oppression and power which affect our perspectives and choices. Furthermore, he boldly challenges participants to examine their own biases, behaviors and belief systems.
Participants include school counselors, administrators, social workers, mental health coordinators, school nurses, law enforcement, community agency staff and student service coordinators. The conference will feature three days of workshops and sessions that focus on practical, hands-on solutions and theoretical, research-based presentations for individuals who work closely with youth as well as an extensive exhibit hall providing resources.
Conference registration is currently open. Individuals who register before Sept. 15 will receive early-bird pricing and save $100. Those interested in registering should visit www.ibpaworld.org/events.
For more information on IBPA and the annual conference, visit ibpaworld.org or contact [email protected].
The International Bullying Prevention Association, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is the premier global membership organization dedicated to advancing bullying-prevention best practices by convening research-based forums, advocating best practices, promoting positive school climate, and collaborating across disciplines, sectors and fields. The organization is structured around four guiding principles, which include ethical training practices, ethical conduct toward practices and performance, ethical conduct toward professional colleagues, and ethical conduct toward the community.

What are the main points of purchasing a high-speed mixer?
1. For materials with finer grain size, special attention should be paid to the sealing of production equipment, and the residual amount should be carefully considered. For example, when mixing flour with a two-axis paddle-free gravity mixer, a 90° full-length large-opening door, a spray self-cleaning system, a slanting discharge door and a shaft end gas seal structure are simultaneously selected to better ensure the seal and Reducing the residue, and replacing the return air duct with the upper bag air exhaust to prevent the fine flour from being sprayed from the return air pipe too much during mixing.
Second, for materials with different specific gravity, high-speed mixer equipment, in addition to structural strength and power, its production parameters such as discharge gate, rotor, body and other structural forms and even rotational speed are often quite different, can not simply look at it For local enhancement or power scaling. For example, a ribbon blender hops generally adopts a double-headed double-belt wide ribbon, while a mixed iron-red powder is usually a single-layer staggered spiral ribbon, and the remaining structures of the two are also significantly different, and the rotational speed difference is also large.
Third, multi-faceted consideration of the impact of other special physical properties on the selection of equipment. For materials with poor fluidity or liquid addition, the coulter, flying knife, crushing roller and other mechanisms with strong shear mixing effect can be reasonably selected according to the specific conditions; the mechanism with faster wear should be wear-resistant or designed. It can be adjusted and replaced; the equipment that needs to be cleaned frequently due to material bonding should be provided with self-cleaning device and convenient and quick cleaning door; if the shape or particle state is not allowed to destroy the material, it is suitable to use the container rotary mixer. Mainly rely on convection mixing and diffusion mixing and mixing process softer equipment and so on.
4. For the high-speed mixer of materials that require heating or accompanying chemical reactions, in addition to selecting the appropriate material and temperature control structure, it is also necessary to pay attention to the influence of temperature changes on the equipment mechanism itself. If the discharge door adopts a small opening door structure, if it is necessary to use a large opening door structure, it is necessary to adopt a discharge structure such as a slanting type discharge door with automatic compensation capability, so as to avoid the reliability of the sealing due to the heat deformation of the discharge part. At the same time, the equipment such as the main shaft and the rotor should be designed to take the necessary line expansion compensation measures.

Nov. 10 at Rogers Arena: Canucks 6, Sharks 1 — One of several San Jose low points in the first half of the season as Sharks are totally outplayed and Mikael Samuelsson leads Vancouver offense with two goals.
Jan. 3 at HP Pavilion: Canucks 4, Sharks 3 — Alexandre Burrows’ goal midway through third period earns Vancouver its first win on San Jose ice since April 7, 2007.
Jan. 20 at Rogers Arena: Sharks 2, Canucks 1 in shootout — San Jose beginning to turn season around as Antti Niemi stops Mason Raymond, Daniel Sedin and Ryan Kesler in shootout while Joe Pavelski bags one for Sharks.
March 10 at HP Pavilion: Canucks 5, Sharks 4 in shootout — Ryane Clowe goal with 21 seconds left helps Sharks pull even only to lose when Burrows beats Niemi in shootout.
So what’s more impressive — the 2010 Olympic gold medal that Vancouver’s Roberto Luongo helped Team Canada win or the 2010 Stanley Cup ring that San Jose’s Antti Niemi helped the Chicago Blackhawks earn four months later? Suffice it to say that both goalies have shown they can win the big game under pressure. In this postseason so far, Luongo has the better save percentage (.917 to .906) and better goals against average (2.21 to 3.01) with Niemi’s stats reflecting two bad games against Los Angeles in the first round. Luongo gets the big edge on experience but can’t match Niemi’s 6-0 record in NHL playoff series in which he has been the starter.
Each team is expected to have one face in the Game 1 lineup who played for the opposition — but neither says he has extra motivation because of that. “I don’t want to beat them any more than I would have wanted to beat Detroit,” Canucks defenseman Christian Ehrhoff told the Vancouver Sun. Ehrhoff played 341 games for the Sharks over five seasons before being traded in August 2009 to clear salary space for the acquisition of Dany Heatley. Forward Kyle Wellwood played in 149 games for Vancouver from 2008-2010 before becoming a Shark in January. As for the Canucks decision not to bring him back this season, “I’ve never had hard feelings,” Wellwood said.
Raffi Torres, then with the Edmonton Oilers, made a devastating blind-side hit to the head of Sharks forward Milan Michalek in Game 2 of a second-round playoff series in 2006. No Shark challenged Torres, Michalek saw limited action in the rest of the series, and Edmonton eliminated San Jose in six games after losing the first two. Now with the Canucks, Torres earned a four-game suspension late in the regular season for an elbow to the head of Oilers rookie Jordan Eberle but avoided secondary discipline for another damaging blow to the head of Chicago defenseman Brent Seabrook in Game 3 of the first-round series.
Vancouver and San Jose led NHL in the regular season on the power play, the Canucks ranked No. 1 with a 24.3 percent success rate and San Jose second at 23.5 percent. But Vancouver’s penalty kill (85.6 percent success rate, tied for 3rd in NHL) was much better than the Sharks’ (79.6 percent, 24th in NHL). In the postseason’s first two rounds, the Canucks also have the edge in both areas: 22.2 percent to 13.7 percent on the power play and 86 percent to 82.7 percent on the penalty kill.

This week I discovered the new Motion Portrait app. Basically, it takes a 2D image (ideally a face) and renders it so it looks 3D and the eyes blink and mouth moves slightly. There have been some amazing posts by some of my favourite Instagram artists like @blairz and @unskilledworker.
I still don’t think I have it down perfectly but wanted to take it to another level and make a mini music video with the clips. I tried out two – the first was using my minimalist sketch of Nico.
It was doing this I learned that using the Ken Burns effect (pan and zoom) in iMovie might make it look even more “alive!” Next, I tried out my #pinkladies – they are a series of pretty, retro girls I sketch using Sharpie and pastel chalk ($1 at Target) on discarded Safeway grocery bags. Its a bit wabi-sabi as the bags are often wrinkled and have obvious lines of demarkation in them. I took some of my favourites (because I now have over 50) and used the Motion Portrait app to create short clips, which I then imported into iMovie and applied Ken Burns.
The whole look is quite mesmerizing and perhaps a bit creepy-cool. I am sure artists using this app and finally bringing their characters to life are having a total Dr. Frankenstein moment.
note bene: I have not yet figured out how to successfully do a voice recording with the app – mine gets funky.
I think this would be a great app (or adapt my movie process) to use in Art classes, of course, but I could really see young students (age 3-10) really digging it. If you can get the voice recording to work, they can narrate their characters. Alternatively, create a movie project in iMovie and add a voiceover (with a better mic).
I taught History for years, and this would be a fun way to sketch or appropriate photos or paintings and make them move and talk (again, if you do the voiceovers) – or perhaps make a music video. Students can even write parody songs first like my History for Music Lovers series. wait- now that I think of it, I have some videos needing production…perhaps I should resurrect Historyteachers?
Finally, Language students may use to illustrate a conversation in a second language OR poetry!
Just remember, like Dr. Frankenstein, the best thing to do with a new app or technology is EXPERIMENT.

Siding is an excellent way to add value and aesthetic appeal to your home. As an added bonus, siding also helps to minimize maintenance costs and is a great way to bring an older home back to life.
Siding is no longer simply a convenient alternative to more expensive building materials. These days, siding is one of the most preferred home-construction materials. At Straight Line Construction, we currently offer four options for engineered wood and composite siding. Each has its own appeal in terms of cost, appearance and durability.
If you’re looking for an economical option, consider the T1-11 siding. This material has been around for a long time and is still respected for its looks and durability. We carry two grades of T1-11 siding. The least expensive option is the oriented strand board (OSB) version, which is a type of engineered particle board. For better durability and more finishing options, choose the slightly more expensive T1-11 plywood siding.
The next step up is Duratemp siding from Roseburg. This plywood siding has a 1/8-inch outer layer of real douglas fir laminate. Douglas fir is extremely hard wood and resists damage extremely well. Its appearance is similar to cedar and offers a real-wood look. This makes it an excellent choice for homeowners desiring a natural look.
Homeowners looking for the top-of-the line, most-durable siding available, should consider siding from James Hardie. Hardie uses a patented method to create cement board products in a variety of styles. They’ve been an industry leader for decades and stand by their product with a 30-year warranty. We can provide you with traditional horizontal lap siding, vertical siding or shingle siding.
The last of our new siding options is LP SmartSide siding. Although this is an engineered wood product, it offers the look of real hardwood siding. Once installed, it can be stained or painted to your preference and offers excellent protection against water damage and termites.
If you have questions about any of our new siding options, we’re always happy to hear from you. We’ll walk you through the process of choosing the best type of siding to fit your needs, desires and budget.

For Innocent, that day arrived Monday when cops in the president’s security detail spotted him along the motorcade route to the National Palace dressed as one of them, in camouflage fatigues and an olive-green T-shirt.
It was the second drug-trafficking-related arrest in days, and the second major arrest of someone trying to impersonate a Haiti National Police officer. Last week, Haiti Police Chief Michel-Ange Gédéon personally arrested a government employee who had been passing himself off to journalists and others in the Haitian diaspora in interviews and text messages as the chief.
On Friday, Haiti’s anti-narcotics police arrested six individuals, including two Bahamians, an American and three Haitians, in Môle-Saint-Nicolas after an airplane landed in the coastal city along Haiti’s northwest. No drugs were found aboard the airplane, said Canéus, but they had received information that the group was engaged in drug-trafficking activities in the area and individuals had been waiting for days for the plane’s arrival. The investigation is ongoing and the six remain in police custody.
All the arrests have come despite days of violent anti-government protests in major cities across Haiti. Frustrated and angry Haitians are taking to the streets to demonstrate against corruption and economic mismanagement and to demand the resignation of Moïse.
Hundreds gathered in downtown Port-au-Prince on February 12 to demonstrate against economic mismanagement and corruption and to ask for President Jovenel Moise to step down.
Known as “Flex,” or “The Comandante,” Innocent was indicted along with three others by a Miami jury in 2006. He was charged with two counts of knowingly and intentionally conspiring to import and distribute 5 kilograms or more of cocaine into the United States. He faces life in prison under each count.
Canéus said he cannot say with certainty if Innocent had been hiding out in Haiti all of this time. During police questioning, Innocent said he had bought the uniform, as well as others found in his car along with several National Identification cards. He said he was in the area because he was getting a cellphone fixed nearby.
“We asked him a lot of questions, but it was clear he was someone who was hiding something,” Canéus said. “How is it that you are armed and you have a bunch of police uniforms in your possession? Why is it at the very moment that the president is passing that you’re along the route?
“This is a man who is very dangerous ... a real troublemaker,” he added.
Sources familiar with Innocent’s history say he was a member of former Haiti President Jean-Bertrand Aristide’s presidential security detail, who has been on the DEA’s radar since 2004, the same year he was implicated in the burning of a radio station in Port-au-Prince. But just as U.S. agents failed to arrest wanted trafficker and rebel leader Guy Philippe until his 2017 arrest, they also failed in attempts to capture Innocent. Accused of aiding a former Haiti National Police officer who coordinated drug loads into the U.S., Innocent is part of the era when Haiti flourished as a “narco-state,” and Colombian cocaine smugglers would routinely hire local cops to protect their loads flown in on planes that landed at night on dirt roads illuminated with the headlights of police cruisers.
A U.S. crackdown on cocaine smuggling through Haiti has yielded the convictions of more than a dozen drug traffickers, including Haitian senior police officers and a former Haitian senator. Among them: Beaudouin “Jacques” Ketant, a Haitian narco-trafficker who accused former Aristide of turning a blind eye to the cocaine. Ketant, initially sentenced to 27 years in a U.S. prison, was deported to Haiti in 2015 when his term was cut in half after assisting the feds in their investigation.
Jean Ednor Innocent, a former Haiti National Police officer who is wanted on drug conspiracy charges in the U.S. involving cocaine, prepares to board a flight for the U.S. out of Port-au-Prince. Innocent was indicted in 2006, and arrested Monday by Haitian police.

My son did the baseball thing, and we spent 4 grand one year, plus other expenses. Luckily he got moved to a team that was sponsored by the St Louis Police Department and it got a lot cheaper.
I get kids want to play against the top competition, and parents want to do best by their kids, but it can get crazy how much people spend.
