WILSON, James Reed (J. R.) Sun Oct 17, 1999
James Reed (J.R.) Wilson, the only son of Jeremiah Wilson and Martha REED, was born March 3, 1817, probably in Montgomery County, Kentucky (see Volume I). J.R. was remembered by his granddaughter, Mattie Cabler BARNETT, who took care of his appearance during the last eight years of his life, as "a tall man, rather thin but not poor. He was always kind to those who did as he thought right. He always wanted to be right, or always thought he was." Mattie went on to say, " I can see since I got older that he was very self willed, or headstrong, but he was loved and respected by everyone who knew him. He was a cow man in his younger years in Texas and came to Kansas in 1881. [He] bought cattle and horses. He had lots of hired help, families and extra men."
"[J.R.] liked to ride horseback and did as long as he could get on a horse without help. He did not want to be helped and waited on. He was always doing something. He made (a) garden and let the girls (granddaughters) work with him in the garden. He did lots of reading, also whittled a lot. [He] swatted flies with a fly swatter he made of a boot top and a cherry twig. He never had screen doors."
"[J.R.] was a good looking man, very stately, and dressed the same every day: boots, dark pants, a wool shirt and long underwear in winter, and drawers in summer [with] a dark cotton shirt. [He wore] a wide rim hat all the time. Very good looking to me. His eyes were blue and his hair was dark, but always white when I knew him. He had a long white beard and he wore his white hair long. I don't remember who kept his hair and beard cut to suit him." The photo of J.R. looking like a Presbyterian patriarch was taken about 1889.
In April 1834 James Reed Wilson joined the White River Presbyterian congregation with Ezra Wilson (c.1785-), perhaps his uncle, George W. Cosby, Ezra's wife, Nancy (a daughter of Abner HAMILTON?, and Ezra's children, Eliza Ann and Abner. The group was inducted at the Cane Hill Campground by Rev. J.M. Blair, James Buchanan and William Reed, elders. Ezra was a resident of Crawford County until the 1840's and last served as an elder in the White River congregation in Washington County in 1835.
In May 1839 J. R. Wilson and George A. Pettigrew were on a jury which acquitted Willis Wallace of killing a Cherokee named Orr on the Trail of Tears as it passed through Fayetteville, Arkansas.
On November 12, 1839, James Reed Wilson married Elizabeth (Betty) PETTIGREW (1820-1854) in Prairie Grove, Arkansas. Elizabeth was born in Gallatin County, Illinois. Her parents, Charles and Nancy Pettigrew, were Cumberland Presbyterians. According to the first congregation minutes, they joined the Cane Hill Congregation on August 30, 1828. The Pettigrews transferred to the Prairie Congregation in 1831. Several of the Pettigrews were active in journalism and politics. Elizabeth bore James seven children, All but William (Billy) in Washington County, Arkansas. In later life Billy was vague about his birthplace, giving various places where his father had resided, including Missouri and Kentucky, but Billy was also probably born in Washington County, Arkansas.
Elizabeth Pettigrew Wilson's first child, Charles L. Wilson, was born in 1840. Charles married Mary Jane KIRBY about 1875.
On November 3, 1840, J. R. Wilson and Elizabeth Pettigrew Wilson sold 80 acres in Washington Co., Arkansas, to Nimrod Stevenson for $300.00. 40 acres were in section 9, township 15N, range 31W, and 40 acres were in section 9, township 15N, range 31W.
Elizabeth's second child, William J. (Billy) Wilson, was born April 7, 1843. Billy's right arm was lost but nevertheless he excelled in every aspect of frontier life. Stories about his arm differ. John Francis (1908-1984) thought the arm had been bitten off by a mean horse before Billy was five years old. Others thought the loss was congenital. A non-family member once wrote that it had been ripped off by a hay bailer, which seems anachronistic, since we know the arm was lost before the 1860's. Billy married Emma .SHEEK about 1873.
Elizabeth's third child, Nancy Alvira Wilson, was born February 7, 1846. Nancy married Albert J. ANDERSON on October 18, 1865.
Elizabeth's fourth child, Lafayette Abraham Wilson, was born February 25, 1848. Fayette married Charity HENSLEY on December 2, 1880.
Elizabeth's fifth child, James P. Wilson, was born in 1849. His wife was named Josephine, but always called Jennie.
In 1849 J.R. joined the gold rush to California. He recalled crossing one gorge on a plank. His mule refused to try the plank. But once J. R. crossed and proved the plank safe the mule followed by itself. J.R.'s partner died in California. By the time J.R. returned to Prairie Grove, via Cape Horn, in 1851 there was nothing left for the partner's widow, or for J.R..
Elizabeth's sixth and seventh children were twins: George and Martha Emma Wilson were born March 17, 1852 (?). Martha married John Henry Anderson on June 8, 1867. George headed for the Arizona frontier when he was about 22 and he was often out of touch with the family.
Elizabeth Pettigrew Wilson died November 10, 1854. She was buried in row 22 of the Prairie Grove Cemetery.
On August 22, 1857, J.R. Wilson married his second wife, Nancy Jane HUGHES (1838-1870). J. R.'s second marriage was performed by Reverend William Reed (1819 KY-1866 AR), probably his cousin, of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
Nancy was born at Cane Hill in Washington Co. Arkansas. She was a daughter of Nancy Jane Kirby and Aaron Hughes. The Kirby family had migrated from south side Virginia through Wilkes Co., North Carolina, and Greene Co., Tennessee. The Hughes family had migrated from Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania, through Augusta Co., Virginia, and Greene Co., Tennessee.
J.R. was 40 years old and had five-year-old twins to care for when he remarried. Nancy Jane was a widow at age 19 and only two years older than J.R.'s oldest son, Charles. Nancy Jane had a year-old daughter, Artemesia HYSAW, from her first marriage to James Hysaw/Highsaw (1834 GA-1856 AR). It must have been difficult for Nancy to discipline her step children. Billy, proud and self-sufficient despite his handicap, was fourteen, five years younger than his stepmother.
On February 9, 1859, J. R. Wilson and Nancy Hughes Wilson sold three parcels of land in Washington Co., Arkansas, containing 120 acres to John H. Goodman and S. Lefevere for $1350.00. The parcels were in section 16, township 15N, range 31W. Nancy Jane's first surviving child, Sarah C. Wilson was born about May, 1859, in Arkansas. Sarah married Alfred Sappington POLK about 1876.
Later in 1859 James Reed Wilson moved his family to Texas. The Wilsons settled on the Keechi Creek in Palo Pinto County, Texas, near present-day Grayford. Most of the settlers ran cattle on the open range. A man was then considered prosperous if he had an estate valued at over $5000.00. The area was precinct 5 in the 1860 census. The Wilson's new neighbors were recorded in the 1860 census: W.W. Cochrane, a prosperous farmer from Georgia; Thomas & William Stevens, cattlemen from Kentucky; John Ballard, a farmer from Tennessee; Ben & William Harris, cattlemen from Missouri; Stephen Brannon, a cattleman from Alabama; Miles Edwards, a farmer from North Carolina; A.M. Hunter, a cattleman from Missouri; John Clayton, a prosperous cattleman from South Carolina; James Brown, a prosperous cattleman from Alabama; W.D. Conatser, a cattleman from Alabama; Morgan Mullins, a cattleman from Virginia; David Cleveland, a surveyor from Alabama; William Mullins, a cattleman !
from Tennessee; Edmund Whatley, a prosperous farmer from South Carolina; Reuben Vaughn, a cattleman from Alabama; William Speaks, a prosperous cattleman born in Texas; David and John McClure, cattlemen from North Carolina; G.E. Peavler, a prosperous farmer from Missouri; Simpson Crawford, a prosperous cattleman born in 1826 in Kentucky (q.v.); Luther Brawner, a prosperous farmer from Maryland; John White, a salt maker from Kentucky; George Beavers, a cattleman from Tennessee who lived nearby.
In the other direction from J.R. Wilson were Alfred Lane (q.v.), a prosperous cattleman who lived nearby; James McLaren, a farmer from Georgia; James Williams, a cattleman from Tennessee; A.C. Bingham, a cattleman from Kentucky; Wesley Sheek, a cattleman born in 1833 in Tennessee (q.v.); Charles Goodnight, a cattleman born in 1837 in Illinois (q.v.); Andrew Peters, a farmer from Tennessee; Adam Sheek, a "mechanic" born in 1802 in North Carolina (q.v.); Solon Loving, a farmer from Alabama; William Shook, a farmer from Tennessee; George Evans, a farmer from Georgia; Mary Bunch, a widow from Tennessee; Jesse Harding, a farmer from New York; A. Price, a farmer from Alabama; Michael Badey, a stone cutter from Ireland; Samuel Fruitt, a cattleman from Kentucky; T.R. Harris, a blacksmith from Arkansas; John Goldston, a saddler from Tennessee; John Browe, a blacksmith from Kentucky; William Crowe, a farmer from Missouri; William Blassinger; Frank Yelke, a cattleman!
n from Germany; Wayne Wilson, a cattleman from Alabama, and his mother Sarah; John Carter, a cattleman from Virginia; Oliver Loving, a trader born in 1812 in Kentucky (q.v.); R.D. Miller, a farmer from Kentucky; Elizabeth Willett, a widow from Kentucky; James Loving a merchant born in 1837 in Kentucky; David Ford, a Mississippian; William Loving, a cattleman from Kentucky; S. Harrington, a blacksmith from Virginia; R.C. Betty, a farmer from Tennessee; and Sebom Ikard, a farmer from Tennessee.
Prior to 1861 J.R. had at least three children, by which wife we are not sure, who died in childhood: Marion, Tom, and an unnamed infant.
Nancy Jane's second surviving child, Mary Belle Wilson, was born July 20, 1861. Nancy married Thomas Franklin CABLER on December 1, 1880.
During the Civil War, from 1863 to 1865, J.R. served in the Texas Home Guard. He then raised horses and cattle on the open range of Texas, Colorado, and Oklahoma for 20 years. He lost two entire herds of cattle to hoof and mouth disease.
Like most cattlemen, J.R. respected nature. His life depended on the survival of his cattle and horses. Nature could be dangerous. Cougers and wolves preyed on cattle, and blizzards often left thousands dead. J.R. met nature half way. According to Martin Lane, whose grandfather lived near J.R. in Palo Pinto County in the 1860's, J.R. kept a bear chained to a tree near his log cabin. In the 1930's Martin Lane showed Lucille Garner, Buck (Leonard Edward) Wilson, and Ikey (John Francis) Wilson J.R.'s log cabin, then covered by siding but still inhabited, near Grayford, Texas. J.R. later kept deer at his ranch near Hewins, Kansas, in the 1880's.
Nancy Jane's third surviving child, Henry Edwin Wilson, was born May 5, 1866. Henry married Polly CLARK in 1897.
Nancy Jane's fourth surviving child, John Ambrose Wilson, was born April 7, 1869. John married Minea Elizabeth TURNER on July 4, 1894.
During the Comanche uprising of 1869 when settlers of the cross timbers region of North Central Texas gathered for protection in "Citizen's forts". J.R. took his family to a citizen's fort called Fort Davis. The fort lay about ten miles north of the present city of Breckenridge, in Stephens County, on the Clear Fork of the Brazos River. Nancy Jane was shot during their flight and died before they got to the fort, early in 1870. Her grave has since eroded into a ravine. The exact circumstances of Nancy Jane's death are unknown, but her daughter from her first marriage, Aremesia Hysaw, blamed J.R. for failing to save her. Artemesia refused to accompany the Wilsons when they moved to Colorado, and even after J.R. settled in Elgin, Kansas, Artemesia wrote long bitter letters of recrimination. Eventually J.R. consigned Artemesia's letters to the fire, unopened, to preserve his peace of mind.
It fell to Nancy (Later Anderson) to care for J.R.'s children by Nancy Jane Hughes. Life was hard for frontier women and Nancy undoubtedly missed her step-mother's help, but she cared for John Ambrose, Henry Edwin, Sarah, Mary Belle, and later Mary Belle's daughter Ada, as they were her own children. Nancy Wilson Anderson was lovingly remembered by Ada. Ada would later tell Lucille Garner what a wonderful woman Nancy was, and how when Ada needed a spanking, her aunt Nancy could not bear to punish her because, "the poor little thing hasn't got a mother". In the 1870's J.R. raised horses in the Arkansas River country in Colorado, near where La Junta was subsequently Located. J.R. accumulated a good herd of cattle and horses. and by 1875 J.R. had recovered from the crash of 1873.
J.R. moved to Adobe Wells, in the Texas panhandle in 1875. A great granddaughter, Lucille Garner, described Adobe Walls as the most peaceful place she ever saw. In 1880 J.R. lost his third sizable herd, probably to the tick-born Texas Fever, and sold his holdings in the Texas panhandle. It was Doctor Theobald Smith, of Cornell University, who discovered that southern cows got mild cases of the fever as calves and thus became immune to the disease.
In 1881 J.R. moved to a one-room log cabin near the big rock on the Caney River, five miles east of Hewins, Kansas, where he occupied the remaining seventeen years of his life with general farming and a modest attempt at stock raising. This cabin was often visited by his sons, who ran cattle on the diminishing open range in five states: Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado. Several grandchildren also stayed for over a year, but Mattie Barnett said the only relative from Arkansas who had visited J.R. after he moved to Kansas was his older sister, Malinda Wilson Ritter.
When J.R.'s Cabler granddaughters came to live with him, after their father's death, he added a two story house about six inches from the old log cabin. The house had two rooms upstairs and two rooms downstairs. Buck Wilson recalls that a double barreled shotgun was hidden inside the stairway wall for the girls' safety.
Even in the 1890's in Kansas, when the scale of his ranching was greatly reduced, Mattie Cabler Barnett recalled that "he had lots of hired help, families and extra men. [J.R.] "saw to it that most every one else around him went to Sunday school and church when there was services at Pleasant Valley School House. I never heard him pray but I know he did every night after he went to bed because he would hold up his right hand and he sat for a while. Then he would say good night and want Sissy and me to kiss him each night, which we always did. Oh, we loved him." Lewis Barnett, who worked for J. R. before he married Mattie Cabler, and lived to be 90, never saw his like. Lewis told Lucille Young Garner, "Oh, Lucille, you don't know what you missed by not knowing Grandpap."
J.R. was described in a Jack County history as "unassuming, without ambition beyond success in his business ventures, [a man who] aided Democracy in politics and served in the Home guard during the Secession War."
James Reed Wilson died February 3, 1898. His obituary in the February 20, 1898, issue of the Cedarvale Commercial describes J. R. as "a devoted Christian, admired by all his friends and respected by all who knew him. Before his death J. R. was confined to his bed for weeks, but was always patient and agreeable to those who attended him... His remains were buried in the cemetery on his farm, by the Pleasant Valley school house."
Reverend Kidd preached J.R.'s funeral sermon from Hebrews 11:14, "These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and embraced them, and confessed they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth, declaring plainly that they seek a better country."

WORLDS FASTEST AWD / 4G63 DATSUN / 20B RX7 IN TESTING
Willowbank Raceway held the 1st of the 2012 Top Sportman Series on the
weekend. Reece McGregor and the Heat Treatments Skyline thought it would be
a good chance to have some test runs in their worlds fastest RB26 powered
4wd skyline. The team worked hard all day and were rewarded with a final
pass or 7.64, not far off their 7.56 record, although something tells me
theres plenty more to come from this car again.
Another car using the test lane was Rob Novak in his Jett Racing 4G63
powered Datsun 1200. The team made adjustments through the day and saw a PB
7.35 @ 187mph on the second last pass of the night, the final wild pass on
video then saw a transmission failure but a happy team none the less.
Final team testing was the Direct Clutch/Promodz Rx7, the car is 3/4
chassis and a running 3rotor 20BT tweaked by Mazfix. The team recently made
adjustments in the rear and also in transmission and are starting to see
results, it ran a 7.99 @ 171mph through the day, then later in the night
suffered a leaking Boost pipe.
Owners Jerry and Dan tell me they havent even started to push the motor
yet, so another car with plenty more to come, and im sure that pb 7.80 will
soon be slashed.
These cars should all be running at the up and coming Sydney Jamboree at
WSID and by the looks of things have some unfinished business they want to
take care of :)

For Thanksgiving at Tim’s Dad’s house this year, we were in charge of bringing a couple desserts and the green bean casserole. No one let me stray from the traditional green bean casserole with a different type of green bean dish, so instead I was [sort of] given freedom with dessert. Tim’s Dad told me his favorite pies and said pumpkin was always a good choice with Thanksgiving. Well, I don’t care for pumpkin anything. Both the texture and the taste does not sit well with me. Every year I give it another chance and try the smallest bite, but I never care for it. You’d think I would learn….
So when it came to deciding about dessert, I decided to make a pumpkin trifle instead of pumpkin pie. Since I don’t care for pumpkin, I just went with what I thought it should taste like. This means I had to force myself to try pumpkin once again. When it was all said and done, everyone who tried it said that they like it, so that’s a good sign!
Gingerbread Pumpkin Trifle
Original recipe and image from Paula Deen
One 15-ounce carton Cool Whip
½ cup packed brown sugar
¾ teaspoon ground cardamom or cinnamon (I used cinnamon. The recipe only calls for 1/3, but I found myself adding more)
One 30-ounce can pumpkin pie filling
One 5.1-ounce package cook-and-serve vanilla pudding mix
Two 14-ounce packages gingerbread mix
½ cup gingersnaps (optional topping)
1. Bake the gingerbread mix according to the package directions; cool completely.
2. Prepare the pudding and set aside to cool completely. I placed in the refrigerator to help speed this up
3. Stir the pumpkin pie filling, sugar, and cardamom or cinnamon into the pudding.
4. Spread and crumble one batch of gingerbread into the bottom of a large serving bowl or dish. I found it helpful to cut the baked gingerbread into cubes before removing from the pan.
5. Pour half of the pudding mixture over the gingerbread, then add a layer of whipped cream.
6. Repeat with the remaining gingerbread, pudding, and whipped cream. Sprinkle of the top with crushed gingersnaps or cinnamon if desired. Refrigerate overnight.

- Product Description
The interaction between news production and reception realised by written hard news texts is generally characterised as implicit. However, under the pressure of marketisation, news companies, by using multimodal resources and the internet, produce various types of semiotic effects to make their news texts more interactive and entertaining while maintaining the traditional informative and authorial stances. In this research, I will examine crime news texts as a discourse type and investigate how news companies in Japan and the UK establish an interpersonal relationship with their readers through news reports, juxtaposing images in page-based multimodal news provided online.

This crisis is not about Dominic Cummings. It’s not about how far he drove, whether he tried to conceal it, his level of influence over the Prime Minister or his apparently eugenicist views.
It’s not about Boris Johnson either. It’s not about his bizarre attachment to Cummings, his hypocrisy or his shocking, overwhelming, mindnumbing arrogance.
Of course I am exaggerating. To some extent it is about all those things.
But primarily it is about class. It is about how members of the ruling class – or the elite, or the rich and powerful, or the 1%, or whatever term you wish to use – are able to get away with behaving in ways that are denied to the rest of us.
To be sure, most of them are most subtle about it than Johnson and Cummings. If this had happened when Cameron or May were Prime Minister, it would be possible to imagine them pushing the adviser in question to offer profuse apologies, and saying he had done the wrong thing in difficult circumstances, before telling us to move on. Johnson and Cummings cannot even be bothered with insincere apologies. They are arrogant enough just to assume they can get away with it, and more or less tell us that they don’t have to follow their own rules.
But it’s the level of arrogance that varies, not the basic structures. This issue at its heart is about the divide between those who control most of the wealth and power in society on the one hand and the vast majority of the population on the other. Unlike some savvier members of the elite, Johnson has never put much effort into denying whose interests he is serving.
It is easier for Johnson when he can wrap himself in the Union Flag and talk up his faux patriotism. Then he can claim to be representing the “national interest”, a phrase which in pretty much every country means the interests of those who hold the power in that country.
Of course, there are many variations of wealth and power in society. This too affects how the lockdown is implemented. For example, the lockdown was introduced with almost no thought given by the authorities to the support of people with mental health problems. Further, it was no surprise to see that black, Asian and minority ethnic people are 54% more likely than white people to be fined for breaking lockdown rules.
This does not mean that the lockdown is wrong. It means that the basic structures of society are wrong. They need changing, lockdown or no lockdown. The promotion of inequality during the pandemic is simply an intensification of the inequality that grips British society all the time. The majority or near-majority of people in virtually every top profession is made up of people who went to fee-paying schools – who form 7% of the UK population.
It is important that opposition parties and critical commentators don’t fall into the liberal trap of talking as if this issue were all about individuals rather than structures.
This is about power and wealth in a vastly unequal society. The many forms of inequality in the UK cause varying levels of harm to almost everyone in it. And the most important form of inequality is between the ruling class and the rest. Now is a good time to say so.

I just completed a month-long Personal Yoga retreat so I thought I’d share a few insights while they’re fresh in my mind. I still had my day-to-day responsibilities to attend to but I managed to raise the bar of my practice. I also did a social media fast (well, except for Pinterest – does that count as social media?)
Taking a month to withdraw gave me a much needed break. And it helped to raise my awareness of the challenges of being a modern day sadhaka. A sadhaka is a Sanskrit term for someone who follows a particular sadhana (a spiritual practice or way of life).
According to B.K.S. Iyengar, one of the most famous yoga teachers of all time, a sadhaka uses yoga to gain knowledge, light and liberation. It also helps to purify the body and soul. – Yogapedia
Challenge #1: Practicing at Home
Some of the obstacles of maintaining a home practice are a result of, well… being at home. Home isn’t the gym, or the studio, or any other designated place for exercise. So we have to consciously make it into one, which takes work. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve started my practice only to have a “to-do” flash through my mind.
“Oh I forgot to change the laundry over, put the leftovers away, etc.”
“Darn it, I meant to turn off my cell phone.”
“Oh man, I really need to shave my legs.”
It can be tricky to navigate the transition from housework or home office work to doing our home practice. My best advice is to stay on your mat. You’ll be able to take care of all of these things afterwards.
Challenge #2: Shared living spaces.
If you have housemates or family members around you may have to work at communicating your boundaries.
“I’m going to be practicing from now until such-and-such a time. Do you need anything before I get started?”
“I’d like to practice for the next hour. Could you please use headphones if you want to watch TV or listen to the radio?”
Challenge #3: This path can be lonely at times.
We may or may not have a community (sangha) of practitioners to support us in our journeys. It’s okay though – you’ll feel far more connected, centered and whole after you practice.
Challenge #4: Interruptions
It’s very important to choose a practice time when you won’t be interrupted. The people you live with may or may not realize what you’re doing. I’ve had people walk in and start talking to me when I was in a extraordinarily expansive meditation. It’s incredibly jarring to the nervous system to be disrupted when you’re in that state.
According to the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, “Useless Talk” is one of the 6 Destroyers of Yoga Practice.
Hopefully you’ll remember to turn your cell phone off. You can also minimize unexpected guests or workmen by telling people you work from home and can’t be disturbed.
If you’re thinking about doing a personal retreat or just want to start a home practice, my very best advice is (to echo the words of the master himself) – practice, practice, practice alone. Try to practice when you won’t be disturbed. You can avoid many of these obstacles simply by making good use of your alone time.
As someone who used to dread the idea of being alone, I can tell you that practicing alone is one of the greatest things you can do for yourself. And when you do your sadhana (translation – good for you) you’ll have more than enough energy to extend to others.

5 things to know about Justin Bieber’s new album Justice
Justin Bieber dropped his sixth studio album, Justice, on March 19 with the intentions of emphasizing “the conversation of what justice looks like so we can continue to heal."
Justice, which features collabs from artists like Chance The Rapper, Benny Blanco and Khalid, is already topping the charts, by impressively owning the entire Top 7 on Spotify.
So whether you've been blasting the Biebs since elementary school, or you're just now becoming a fan, here are five things to know about Justin Bieber's new album, Justice.
Bieber is using Justice to support global movements for justice
When Bieber announced the release of Justice, he included a list of organizations he is supporting in honor of the album. Bieber included a resource link in the album release tweet with a list of ways his fans can get involved and "embody what justice looks like in action."
Justice begins with an audio track of Martin Luther King Jr. saying, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." This introductory clip is later followed by a track titled "MLK Interlude," which is a nearly two-minute-long excerpt from one of Dr. King's sermons from 1967 titled “But If Not.”
While some listeners have criticized Bieber's decision to incorporate Dr. King in an album that predominantly focuses on his mental health and love life, others have lauded the singer for speaking up for an important cause. Bernice King, Dr. King's daughter, even shouted out Bieber's new album in a Tweet.
Each of us, including artists and entertainers, can do something.— Be A King (@BerniceKing) March 18, 2021
Thank you, @justinbieber, for your support, in honor of #Justice, of @TheKingCenter’s work and of our #BeLove campaign, which is a part of our global movement for justice. #MLK #EndRacism https://t.co/nTkR1XdcvW
Bieber features *all* of your fave artists in songs on Justice
Obsessed with Chance the Rapper and Khalid? Then you're in luck, because they are just two of the phenomenal artists featured on Bieber's latest album. Want a list of all the incredible features on Justice? Look no further.
As I Am (feat. Khalid)
Holy (feat. Chance the Rapper)
Unstable (feat. The Kid LAROI)
Die For You (feat. Dominic Fike)
Peaches (feat. Daniel Caesar & GIVĒON)
Love You Different (feat. Beam)
Loved By You (feat. Burna Boy)
Justice was written while Bieber was in quarantine
The majority of the songs on Justice were written while Bieber was in lockdown during the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic. In the album notes, the editor wrote that during quarantine, Bieber "embraced the relative quiet: He got rid of his cell phone, dedicated himself to therapy, and cut off work at 6 pm each night to hang out with his wife Hailey." Bieber's experiences in lockdown provoked transformative, philosophical thoughts that ultimately led to the creation of Justice.
His wife was the inspiration behind many songs
The time that Bieber spent with Hailey during lockdown must have been influential on his songwriting, as most of Justice is about his marriage. With heartfelt lyrics like "Through everything, you've been my rock/I think you're the only thing I didn't get wrong," and "I still relive the second I met my biggest blessing," it's safe to say that Bieber is still smitten with his new wife.
It took a while to capture the perfect album cover
In January, Bieber's photographer took roughly 3,500 photos at three different locations across Los Angeles. The photo that Bieber ultimately selected was one of the last photos taken. The image was captured at the third shoot, in Downtown L.A.’s 2nd Street Tunnel. Bieber's photographer said that, upon seeing the image for the first time, Bieber ran around the room shouting, “This is it! This is the cover!”

Surgeon who saved Oak Creek officer's life shares story with WISN 12 News
Lt. Brian Murphy shot 12 times
The doctor who helped save Oak Creek police Lt. Brian Murphy's life sat down for his first television interview with WISN 12 News reporter Marianne Lyles.
Dr. Travis Webb explained what it took to save the officer who was so close to death.
"So I received a page," Webb said.
Aug. 5 was an event Webb only experienced in training.
"The adrenaline starts to pump a little bit," Webb said.
There was a mass shooting at the Oak Creek Sikh Temple.
A gunman opened fire, killing six and then himself. Four people were injured.
"The first patient was Lt. Murphy," Webb said.
Police said Wade Michael Page shot Lt. Brian Murphy 12 times.
"When he arrived, he was obviously severely injured with multiple gunshot injuries," Webb said. "When he arrived, he was extremely calm. He was obviously in distress."
The Oak Creek officer's condition was very serious. He could barely breathe.
"The bullet had passed through his voice box then on through his trachea as well as his through his esophagus, the feeding tube," Webb said.
But with 10 years of experience at Froedtert and the Medical College of Wisconsin, Webb and his team of dozens got Murphy into surgery.
The operating and multiple surgeries took 12 hours, but Webb would learn more about the patient and the shooting later.
Webb is no stranger to treating police officers. He also led the way on the Elm Grove officer hit by a train in May 2009.
"Our police officers are on the front line," Webb said.
Webb said he loves bringing patients back to life, but for Murphy's surgery he was most impressed by work that wasn't his.
"During the operating I did, I called in one of our ear, nose and throat specialists to come in and he did an incredible job reconstructing the voice box," Webb said. "Now to see him (Murphy) and to hear him especially, I am amazed."
Webb said there's one thing surgery can't heal.
"My biggest concern for him now isn't necessarily the physical aspect, it's more the social and psychological toll," Webb said.
Webb said Murphy still has bullets in his body that doctors couldn't remove. He still returns for checkups, but Webb said he's seeing less of the lieutenant, which means he's improving greatly.


UNIT CYP CORE 3.3 LEARNING OUTCOME 1 (1.2) SAFEGUARDING CHILDRENS WELL BEING
The term safeguarding means ’ promoting children’s welfare and putting measures in place it improve children’s safety and prevent abuse.’ According to Tassoni (2010) (pg 112) “ safeguarding is about much more than just protection children from direct abuse.” Safeguarding is used to protect children from a wide range of dangers such as accidents, substance abuse and even unprotected consenting sex.
Any person or outside services working with children and young people has a duty to protect them from neglect and abuse. In 2007 the government carried out major consultations with parents, children, practitioners and the general public about their concerns regarding children’s safety. This resulted in the forming up of the Stay Safe Action Plan, which shows what and how the government plan to do to make improvements in children and young peoples safety. Some of the key areas in the wider view of safeguarding are below * crime and bullying
* forced marriages
* missing children
* keep children safe from accidents (by carrying out risk assessments in the setting and also in places in which the setting wish to visit and considering children’s health and safety within my setting by having a qualified staff member who can carry out first aid, having fire extinguishers and storing dangerous chemicals correctly) * actively promote their welfare in a healthy and safe environment. (by encouraging children to take part in physical exercise and promote healthy eating at snack times)
In conclusion it is plan to see that safeguarding is much more than we think and that it has a much wider span in child protection.

The number of patients infected with fungal meningitis from a contaminated steroid treatment grew to 119 Tuesday, including 11 deaths, federal health officials said. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention added a tenth state—New Jersey—to those with confirmed cases.
The CDC said hospitals and doctors should contact patients who received injections for low back pain from three lots of preservative-free methylprednisolone acetate (80mg/ml) made by New England Compounding Center in Framingham, recalled on September 26.
The agency moved back the time frame that caregivers began giving the potentially contaminated injections to May 21, 2012. The CDC previously said the injections began in July.

Everything was going smoothly until Southwest Airlines Flight 1380 reached about 32,000 feet. Then there was chaos.
A deafening bang. A puff of gray smoke. Oxygen masks dropped. At first, the plane vibrated violently side to side. Then it lunged to the left. In the cockpit, alarms and warnings rang out — so loud that the pilots had to scream to talk to each other.
“And that all kind of happened all at once,” Darren Ellisor, the flight’s first officer, told ABC News’s “20/20” in an interview that will be broadcast Friday night.
The article goes on to state the following:
Captain Tammie Jo Shults, who was next to him in the cockpit during the April 17 flight, was not initially supposed to be in that seat. Her husband, Dean Shults, a fellow Southwest pilot, had asked her to swap flights so he could attend their son’s track meet.

Train Travel in Vietnam – Hue to Da Nang
Seeing Vietnam by train is one of the most magical and economical ways to experience the country’s beauty. Travelling from Hue to Da Nang is no exception. From mountain passes to coastal villages and rural rice paddies, you’re spoilt for scenery. Travelling by train often costs much less than taking a private car or flight.
If you’re looking to travel long distances on a budget and in relative comfort, taking a sleeper train from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City on Vietnam’s historic North-South Line can be a great option. Prefer a shorter trip? You’re in luck because you truly can’t find a more scenic train trip than the one from Hue to Da Nang. Winding through the stunning Hai Van Pass, the roughly three-hour trip offers passengers breathtaking views of curving shorelines, rural villages and farms, and lush mountains. Once you arrive in Da Nang, you’re also just a quick hop from the popular tourist hub of Hoi An.
We shared the key things you should know about travelling by train in Vietnam. In this guide, Hidden chose to cover the train trip from Hue to Da Nang in more depth as it offers such spectacular scenery—in such a short period. From what you can expect on board to the best travel times (and seats) for soaking in the beauty of Hai Van Pass, we’re here to help make sure your train trip is as easy and enjoyable as possible.
History of Vietnam Railways and the North-South Line
Vietnam’s most important train route, the North-South Railway Line, runs 1,726 km (1,072 miles) between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. It has a long and storied history in the country beginning in 1936 when it was completed under French rule.
In 1954, the railway line was cut when the country divided into North and South Vietnam. For the next two decades, wartime bombings inflicted massive damage on tracks, cars and stations along the route in both the North and South.
When the war ended in 1975, the Hanoi-based government began the colossal task of restoring the North-South line. By New Year’s Day of 1978, the Vietnamese government had fixed 1,334 bridges, 27 tunnels, and 158 stations—all in under two years. Heralded as a symbol of a nation unified once again, the North-South Line was dubbed Vietnam’s “Reunification Line.”
Some guidebooks still refer to the North-South line by this name, even though multiple trains (with names starting with “SE”) now run the route. While Vietnam has upgraded certain SE cars and tracks recently, the nation’s plans for a high-speed rail, which would cut the journey between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City from 30 hours to six, has yet to move full steam ahead.
What to expect when travelling by train from Hue to Da Nang
Boarding the train and getting situated
Boarding the train from Hue to Da Nang is an experience in itself. Unmarked platforms, jostling crowds, attendants in sharp blue uniforms and, in some cases, dogs and even chickens mulling about can make for quite a scene!
Hidden Hint: Try to get to the station at least 30 minutes ahead of your scheduled departure. Giving yourself time to get oriented, on board and situated when your train arrives.
Boarding announcements are often made entirely in Vietnamese (or over outdated audio systems). Platforms aren’t clearly marked either and can be chaotic, so your best bet is to watch the board or follow other passengers queuing up at the station door. Forget the orderly lines you may have experienced in Japan or Europe—in Vietnam, the goal is to get on board as fast as you can! If you are unsure just ask an attendant for help, with your train ticket handy as a visual reference.
Train cars all have a number. Double-check the number on your ticket to see which car you should head toward when boarding. Once you’re on board, you’ll find the number of your assigned seat on the back of the chair. If you’re in a sleeper car, you can find your berth number above the entryway.
There are four main types of seating options on Vietnam’s trains. For short journeys, soft seat and hard seat, which are fairly self-explanatory, are the most common options. They are split between trains with air-conditioning and those without. (All express or SE trains are air-conditioned, double-check when booking whether yours is as well).
In the soft-sleeper cars, you’ll have an individual berth in a four-berth compartment, which includes its own sheet, duvet, pillow and reading light. The compartment can be locked and you can store your luggage beneath the bottom bunks and in the space above the door. There are power sockets for charging your devices in each compartment, too.
If you’re travelling hard-sleeper, expect the same as with soft sleeper, except with six berths per compartment instead of four (and with a bit less padding for your night’s sleep, of course).
In the second class soft seat train cars, the luggage rack above the seats can fit most bags and suitcases. Be careful, though, as there is no guardrail. (Sometimes this means watching your head!)
Hidden Hint: If you’d like a table in the soft seat car, book your seat well in advance. There are only a few available seating options in each of these cars.
There are coat hangers next to each row of seats. They’re used for much more: holding water bottles or extra luggage, bunches of bananas etc… You’ll also find ports for charging your electronics above your seat. Unfortunately, there’s no Wi-Fi—at least not reliably. There are squat and seated toilets at either end of the sleeper cars as well as sinks and soap for washing up. Remember to bring your own toilet paper along.
Looking for a slightly more luxurious experience?
Two private tourist cars, Livitrans and Violette, run from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City with stops in Hue. They feature accommodations slightly nicer than the soft-sleeper berths on SE trains and more exclusive service.
During your ride
In Vietnam, the fastest, most modern trains are those labelled “SE,” and it’s likely that these are the ones you’ll book between most destinations.
If you’ve travelled in Japan or Europe by high-speed rail, these trains will feel bumpy and slow in comparison. However, Vietnam’s trains still offer many conveniences along your route to help make your journey pleasant. If you’re hungry, a snack cart makes the rounds every hour or so, with plenty of chips, cookies, and drinks (including beer) for sale. At meal times, staff come to each cart and serve hot, filling dishes of meat, rice and stewed vegetables for 35,000 VND (1.50 USD) per plate. The train staff also pass a bottle of water to each passenger upon departure. There is also a free water dispenser at the end of the sleeper car corridor. You can get cold or boiling water here, helpful for making instant coffee or powdered soup.
If you’re in the soft seats, you’ll be happy to know that they recline and permit you to stretch out a bit. Sometimes, passengers want extra legroom, so don’t be surprised to find someone’s foot up on the back of your seat! There are also shades you can pull down to get a break from the afternoon sun. But make sure you don’t miss the view!
Pros and Cons of Train Travel in Vietnam
You can access stunning scenery that you may otherwise miss – especially when travelling from Hue to Da Nang. On-board facilities are completely acceptable and reasonably comfortable.
It’s a great way to travel with locals and witness life outside backpacker and tourist corridors. Also, a relatively cheap and convenient way to travel to destinations that may lack an airport, such as Hue.
Particularly cheap if you’re travelling with children under four since they’ll ride for free in Vietnam. Children ages 5 to 9 travel at a 25% discount.
Don’t expect the same level of modern comfort or a sleek ride, as in Western Europe and Japan, in Vietnam. Trains lack reliable Wi-Fi and digital signage to tell you when you should expect to arrive, as well as your next stop and current location.
The trip is also a bit bumpy and loud, which can be a problem for light sleepers on overnight trains. Often, you can fly a budget airline for the same amount (or even less) than it would cost to take a train between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
Planning your journey
Distances and prices between main stops in Vietnam
The longest train trip on the North-South Line is between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. This trip takes 32 to 35 hours, depending on which train you choose. We advise taking an SE train as they are the fastest and most comfortable.
There are seven daily express trains and two slower trains departing Hanoi for Ho Chi Minh City, and vice versa. Trains labelled SE are the express options, and the earliest of these depart Hanoi at 6 am. If you choose this option, expect to arrive in Ho Chi Minh City the following day around 4 pm. If you leave from Ho Chi Minh City at 6 am, you’ll arrive in Hanoi by 3:30 pm the next day.
Prices vary slightly depending on train, berth, booking agency and even time of year. But generally, expect to pay around 1,185,000 VND (51 USD) for a berth in a soft-sleeper train between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City and 1,423,000 VND (61 USD) for a hard-sleeper berth.
Travelling from Hanoi to Hue, which is halfway to Saigon, takes about 14 and 1/2 hours. The trip costs 462,000VND (20 USD) for a soft seat, 707,000 VND (31 USD) for a hard sleeper berth, and 849,000 VND (37 USD) for a soft sleeper berth.
From Da Nang, which is an easy jumping-off point to reach Hoi An, you can get to Ho Chi Minh City by train in 19 and 1/2 hours. The trip costs roughly 552,000 VND (24 USD) for a soft seat, 757,000 VND (33 USD) for a hard sleeper berth, and 909,000 VND (39 USD) for a soft sleeper berth.
Costs and timetables for each journey are roughly the same in the reverse direction.
How to book train tickets
Most routes on Vietnam Railways open 30 to 60 days before departure. But if you’re travelling during Tet in Vietnam you may find tickets on sale several weeks earlier than usual. We strongly advise that you do purchase them well in advance, especially if your journey takes you through the Tet period. We’ve dedicated an article on Tet in Vietnam to help manage visitor’s expectations during this busy time.
Buying tickets online
You can purchase train tickets (including same-day tickets) online from 12Go.Asia or Baolau.com, which offer the option of choosing your travel class and train seat from a real-time graphic. Both sites also charge the official Vietnam Railways price for tickets plus a small service fee for booking.
Hidden Hint: Buy your ticket at least one day in advance to make sure you get the particular seat or sleeper that you want.
If you book on 12Go.Asia or Baolau, you’ll receive your tickets via e-mail. Either show the ticket QR code on your smartphone to the attendant or print it out and bring it with you. It may take a few hours to get your ticket via email.
Buying tickets at the station
It’s also simple to get tickets at Vietnam’s railway stations. Each has a ticket counter where you can book a train on the same day or in advance. At the counter, station staff can help you choose a departure time, train class, and seat that fit your travel needs and budget.
Hidden Hint: Make sure to bring enough Vietnamese dong with you (or stock up from the ATM outside) to purchase your ticket as Vietnamese train stations don’t accept credit cards.
If you want to offload the hassle of booking, you’ll find most travel agents and hotels will buy you a train ticket for a small commission.
The best stretch of train line in Vietnam: Hue to Da Nang
The train trip from Hue to Da Nang runs a coastal and mountainous stretch through Central Vietnam, taking roughly three hours. This short journey, rewards you with some of the most spectacular, diverse views of Vietnam. A panorama of rugged coast, rural villages, and lush green mountain passes.
Typically, eight trains depart Hue for Da Nang daily, including six express (SE) trains. The earliest of these leaves at 4:55 am, and three others depart before noon. For a soft seat in an air-conditioned car expect to pay around 130,000 VND (6 USD) per ticket. Hidden’s taken this trip, and we’ve included some of our highlights and key tips below.
Hidden Hint: Book the trains (from Hanoi/HCMC) ensuring you cross through the Hai Van Pass during daylight as you don’t want to miss the view!
Getting to Hue Railway Station and boarding the train
Hue’s railway station is conveniently located on Bui Thi Xuan Street. It’s close to most of the city’s main attractions and lodgings, so it’s easy to get there. We recommend arranging for a motorbike, taxi, or private car to take you to the station from your accommodation, either through your concierge or the Grab app.
We also had no problem navigating Hue’s railway station as it’s a relatively small, historic, pink building, constructed in French colonial style. If you’ve already got your ticket, head to the main station building and wait for your train to arrive. We recommend watching the screen (or fellow passengers!) to know when it’s time to board.
You can also pick up a snack or drink from just outside the station platform before boarding – there are many vendors doing business there! We were offered several treats, beverages, and even non la (Vietnam’s iconic conical hats) as we made our way to our train car. We also saw vendors selling goods through the car windows to passengers on board.
Making the most of the journey
We took a mid-morning train from Hue to Da Nang. We highly recommend doing the same to get the best view (and photo) opportunities.
Departing Hue Station en-route to Da Nang, we chose seats on the left side, and soon escaped the hustle of the city. We were treated to views of scenic mountain passes, lush with greenery and picturesque rural villages and rice paddies. It was a rare opportunity to witness life in Vietnam’s countryside—all without the stress of driving!
Hidden Hint: Choose seats on the left side of the train for more consistently stunning views, especially those of the coast.
About an hour into the ride, we found ourselves overlooking the fishing village of Lang Co. With its colourful fishing boats lining the shore. We snapped more than a few photos and then basked in the stunning scenery. This opened up to the breathtakingly rugged coastline as we made our way toward the Hai Van Pass.
The Hai Van Pass
About 10 minutes after leaving Lang Co, we reached the entrance to the Hai Van Pass tunnel. Because there’s a single track at the tunnel entrance, your train may stop like ours did to let another train through. Don’t be alarmed! After 15 minutes, we started up again and passed through the tunnel. We were then quickly back to gazing at the beauty of the coast and countryside.
Hugging the mountainside, our train made its way through the historical Hai Van Pass. Here we had some of the best views of tropical beaches and lush countryside of our entire trip. (It’s also well worth driving the pass by motorbike, where you’ll go over it on a different route.)
Winding our way down from the pass, we could see Da Nang’s skyline emerge along the curving, white coastline. We passed babbling streams and increasing rural villages as we got closer to Da Nang. In the last 30 minutes, increased traffic and denser towns let us know we were approaching our destination.
Hidden Hint: For the best photos, head to the gaps between the cars or to a sleeper car. The staff often roll down the windows, leaving you free to take clear shots, without having to contend with window glare.
Arriving at Da Nang Station and getting to Hoi An
There wasn’t much difference between Da Nang’s Railway Station and Hue’s. Meaning that it didn’t take us much time to disembark and head to our next destination.
Once we exited, we made our way to the main station building. It is clearly marked and located directly beside the first platform. If you need to pick up luggage or your motorbike, you can head to the luggage office to the right of the main station when you exit.
If you’re headed to Hoi An like we were, you’re in luck. There are plenty of options to help make the last leg of your journey as easy as possible. Refer to our Da Nang to Hoi An article for all the details.
Aside from riding a motorbike, taking the train in Vietnam is the best way to experience the country’s beauty. From massive mountains to brilliant blue waters, to rice fields and rural villages, train travel gives you glimpses of Vietnam you may otherwise miss. The trip from Hue to Da Nang is a perfect example of this.
The train is a low-cost and fairly comfortable option for travelling in Vietnam, as well as a way to experience a bit of local life as well.
For your money, there’s no better train trip in Vietnam than the one from Hue to Da Nang. In just under three hours, you’ll be treated to some of the best views the country has to offer. And once you arrive in Da Nang, you’re just a hop, skip and a jump from Hoi An, one of Vietnam’s most cherished, historic destinations.
If you’re looking for a luxurious, fast means of travel, Vietnam’s trains might not be for you; but if you’re craving some adventure, incredible photo opportunities, and a bit of local flavour, taking a train in Vietnam is an unbeatable experience.

19th C. African American-Irish Village Under NYC’s Central Park
Just a few months ago, anthropologists and historians finally received permission from the city of New York to begin digging in an area of Central Park (near 85th Street and Central Park West): a critical step in a decades-long quest to reveal the history of an African-American community destroyed in the 1850s by the creation of Central Park .From a New York Times article (published a couple weeks ago):
While the borings of the past produced just a few artifacts, the dig [ which ended on July 29, 2011—XJ ], generated 250 bags of material that should keep the scholars busy for months, if not years. The work on Wednesday alone yielded a toothbrush handle fashioned of bone and the lid of a stoneware jar.
About two-thirds of the residents of Seneca Village were African-American, while the rest were of European descent, mostly Irish. The community was settled in the 1820s, a few years before slavery was abolished in New York. Despite old news reports that the village was a squatter camp, it was, in fact, made up of working- and middle-class property owners.
More in the NYT, and here is the website for the Seneca Village Project. They have more images and panoramas from the excavation.
From a statement by project co-directors Nan Rothschild (Barnard College, Columbia University) and Diana Wall (City College of New York, CUNY), about the more than 250 bags of artifacts that will now be washed and analyzed in labs:

This is a printer-friendly version of an article from Zip06.com.11/24/2019 11:00 PM
The Guilford field hockey team put an exclamation point on a perfect season by earning a 3-2 victory versus Hand in the championship game of the Class M State Tournament at Wethersfield High School on Nov. 23. The top-seeded Indians scored the first three goals of the contest and held off a spirited rally by the Tigers to claim their second-straight state title, while finishing the year with a record of 23-0. Guilford, which also won the SCC Tournament for the second-straight campaign, has now won its last 31 games in a row dating back to last season.
Junior Hannah Tillier, sophomore Maddie Epke, and senior Amy Bucci each scored a goal within the first 21 minutes of the game to give the Indians a 3-0 lead over 7th-seeded Hand in the state championship. The Tigers got on board when junior Grace Hartmann scored a goal to make it 3-1 at halftime.
Hand cut the deficit to 3-2 on a goal by senior Amy Woods with just 43 seconds left in the game, but Guilford’s defense held strong to solidify the Indians’ second outright state crown and their fourth overall. Guilford wound up outscoring its opponents by a 126-14 margin this year.
“This one is the sweetest,” said Kitty Palmer, who finished her 38th season as Guilford’s head coach. “It was stressful both for me and the team, because we didn’t lose a game. The pressure was building every time we took the field. It’s a wonderful feeling, doing this again not only for me, but more importantly, for every kid on this team.”
The state final marked the third time that Guilford and Hand played each other this year. The Indians earned a 4-2 win versus Hand during the regular season and then defeated the Tigers by a 2-1 score in the SCC semifinals.
Guilford had reached the Class M championship game by posting a 6-1 victory against Branford in the semifinal round. Hand, which finished its year with an overall record of 14-8, claimed a 1-0 overtime win versus Bethel in its state semifinal game.
Tillier gave Guilford a 1-0 advantage when she scored off an assist from Epke 7:20 into the game. About eight minutes later, Epke was awarded a penalty stroke when Hand was called for an infraction in the circle. Epke lined up and drove her shot home to increase the lead to 2-0 with 15:05 to play in the first half. With 10:28 remaining in the half, Bucci tipped in a pass from Epke to give Guilford a 3-0 lead.
“Before every game, we’ve talked it over in the locker room about getting that first goal early and keeping the pressure on,” Epke said. “Our theory is we need to run hard right from the start, to have good passing, to constantly be looking up, to get off shots, and to always look to be tipping balls.”
Although they were outshot by an 8-4 margin during the opening half, the Tigers started to get their offense in gear and broke through when Hartmann scored from senior Maeve Connors with 4:46 to go until halftime.
Hand continued to create more chances during the second half. Fifteen minutes in, Connors appeared to have scored a goal, but it was waved off, because the shot was too high.
The Tigers weren’t done, though. With 43 seconds remaining, Woods scored on an assist by junior Shealyn Docker to get Hand within a goal at 3-2. While the Tigers had some momentum, they didn’t have much time, and Guilford was able to keep Hand out of the net the rest of the way to walk off the field with its second-consecutive state championship.
“They were pushing in the second half. They still had lots of energy,” senior defender Cat Larrow said of Hand. “We saw it, and we needed to match it as best we could.”
Both teams had 14 shots on goal in the game. Sophomore Julia McDonald made seven saves for Guilford. Sophomore Megan Hart had 10 saves for Hand.
Coach Palmer was relieved that Guilford staved off a late charge from a formidable Tigers’ team that always gives her club a tough time.
“They managed to score a goal against us in the last five minutes of all three games,” said Palmer “They’ve been our toughest foe all season long.”
Larrow said she feels thrilled to have helped the Indians capture state championships in each of the past two campaigns.
“It means the world to me,” Larrow said. “We had all set our minds on this early. We wanted to go undefeated and win another state title and do it for Coach Palmer and the other coaches, because they’ve all done so much for us.”
Guilford advanced to the Class M state final with a 6-1 win versus No. 5 seed Branford in a semifinal game at Cheshire High School on Nov. 19. The Indians were up 5-0 at halftime and scored the first six goals of the game on their way to beating Branford. Senior captain Ella Stanley scored three goals to go with an assist in the victory. Tillier, Bucci, and Epke also scored goals for the Indians. Epke had two assists, while Larrow added an assist. McDonald made five saves in net.
From the Sidelines
The Guilford field hockey team's roster features senior captains Ella Stanley and Jaime Neleber, seniors Sarah Minuit, Sadie Smith, Mia Suchy, Lily Mackey, Nicole Auger, Ava Bucci, Lexi Hitchcock, Cat Larrow, Bridget Tower, Caitlyn Cunneen, and Megan Fernandes; juniors Madden Cunningham, Ella Kagan, Kathryn Amatruda, Janna Ellman, Hannah Tillier, Kelly Calistro, and Eve Young; and sophomores Maddie Epke, Daniella Vickerman, Olivia McDonald, Jadeyn Violette, Allie Petonito, and Julia McDonald.
Guilford posted a record of 16-0 during the regular season. The Indians claimed victories against Stonington (5-0), Lyman Hall (10-0), Hamden (2-0), Lauralton Hall (6-1), Branford (8-0), Hand (4-2), Glastonbury (4-2), North Haven (9-0), Sheehan (5-0), Amity (6-1), Mercy (6-0), Enfield (8-0), Sacred Heart Academy (6-1), Cheshire (6-1), Shelton (9-0), and Haddam-Killingworth (forfeit) on their way to going undefeated for regular-season play.
Following the regular season. the Indians defended their conference title by winning the SCC Tournament for the second year in a row. Top-seeded Guilford recorded wins against No. 8 Hamden (7-1) in the quarterfinals, No. 4 Hand (2-1) in the semifinals, and No. 2 Amity (1-0) in the final to claim the SCC championship.
In the Class M State Tournament, No. 1 seed Guilford earned a 9-1 win over Avon in the first round, a 4-0 victory against No. 8 South Windsor in the quarterfinals, and a 6-1 win versus No. 5 Branford in the semis to make the final, where the Indians notched a 3-2 victory over No. 7 Hand to defend their state title and finish the season with an overall mark of 23-0.
This marks Guilford's fourth state title and the 11th time that the Indians have played in a state final. Guilford won the Class M state title in 2018 with a 3-1 win versus Sacred Heart Academy, shared the Class L title with Simsbury following a 1-1 tie in 1997, and was declared co-champions with Cheshire in 1991 following a 1-1 tie in the final. Guilford lost to New Canaan (3-1) in the 2016 Class M final, Wilton (3-0) in the 2012 Class M final, Pomperaug (1-0) in the 2003 Class L final, Cheshire (2-1 in OT) in the 2001 Class L final, Greenwich (2-1) in the 1994 Class L final, Farmington (1-0) in the 1979 Class M final, and Granby (2-1) in the 1973 state final.

Mental health problems range from the worries we all experience as part of everyday life to serious longterm conditions. Themajority of people who experience mental health problems can get over them or learn to live with them, especially if they get help early on.
Mental health problems are usually defined and classified to enable professionals to refer people for appropriate care and treatment. But some diagnoses are controversial and there is much concern in the mental health field that people are too often treated according to or described by their label. This can have a profound effect on their quality of life. Nevertheless, diagnoses remain the most usual way of dividing and classifying symptoms into groups.
Most Mental Health symptoms have traditionally been divided into groups called either ‘neurotic’ or ‘psychotic’ symptoms. ‘Neurotic’ covers those symptoms which can be regarded as severe forms of ‘normal’ emotional experiences such as depression, anxiety or panic. Conditions formerly referred to as ‘neuroses’ are now more frequently called ‘common mental health problems.’
Less common are ‘psychotic’ symptoms, which interfere with a person’s perception of reality, and may include hallucinations such as seeing, hearing, smelling or feeling things that no one else can. Mental health problems affect the way you think, feel and behave. They are problems that can be diagnosed by a doctor, not personal weaknesses.

Walsall's Emotional Health and Wellbeing toolkit
This guide is aimed at identifying interventions that will support the promotion of resilience and good behaviour in childhood and adolescence therefore reducing the behaviour that affects a young person’s ability to learn. While issues may become evident at school, the time of pregnancy and early years play a major part in laying the foundations for a resilient person who can cope in the world they are growing up in. There are therefore sections in this resource identifying how the foundations for the resilience and positive mental wellbeing of a child are laid in these periods.

Another day, another artistic director in Calgary resigns.
It all started back in June when Dennis Garnhum announced he was leaving Theatre Calgary after 11 seasons to take over the leadership of London’s Grand Theatre, a position he has held since September of 2016.
In January, Vanessa Porteous announced she was leaving the cash-strapped Alberta Theatre Projects for personal reasons and barely a month later, Mark Bellamy announced he was leaving Lunchbox Theatre to pursue other artistic endeavours such as acting and directing.
Now Downstage Theatre has announced that Simon Mallett who created and has led the company for 13 seasons is vacating his position.
The one big difference with this latest announcement is that it includes the name of Mallett’s replacement.
Ellen Close who joined Downstage in 2007 and has been its artistic producer since 2013 will step into Mallett’s chair.
As a member of the Downstage Creation Ensemble, Close partnered with Braden Griffiths to co-write and perform in the award-winning show My Family and Other Endangered Species.
In the company’s release, Close says “after 10 seasons with Downstage, I am thrilled to take on this new challenge of leading the company through this time of transition and growth.”
Downstage is currently co-producing the world premiere of David Rhymer and Kris Demeanor’s Crime Does Not Pay at the Engineered Air Theatre until March 11, which Mallett directed.
With Porteous’ departure, ATP will be under the guidance of associate director Vicki Stroich who has worked with the company for the past 18 years.
Porteous directed ATP’s current offering, Joan MacLeod’s powerful solo show Gracie, about a young girl raised in a breakaway Mormon sect, starring Lili Beaudoin.
Until a replacement for Bellamy is announced, Lunchbox Theatre will be in the hands of associate director Samantha MacDonald, who staged the company’s current hit version of Stewart Lemoine’s The Exquisite Hour.
Theatre Calgary is promising to reveal the name of its new artistic director later this month.
There is also an associate director position up for grabs at TC.
Mallett recently directed Vertigo Theatre’s chilling production of Wait Until Dark.
For the past three years, Mallett has been the associate director on TC’s A Christmas Carol and will direct the world premiere of Sharon’s Pollock’s Blow Wind, High Water, which will open TC’s 50th anniversary season in September.
Announcing his departure from Downstage, Mallett says he is stepping down to “pursue an exceptional opportunity to be announced in the coming months.”

Queens Park Rangers will be without Shaun Wright-Phillips for the rest of the season because of an ankle injury.
The 31-year-old winger had surgery earlier this week and will now play no further part in Rangers’ bid to avoid relegation to the Championship.
“Shaun has had an operation. It needed doing, we tried to keep him going,” said QPR manager Harry Redknapp.
“He’s played with the pain and not felt 100%. Hopefully Shaun will be back at the start of next season now.”
The former Manchester City and Chelsea player has scored two goals in 22 appearances for Redknapp’s side this season, but has only made 14 Premier League starts.
QPR have won only three times in the league since the turn of the year, leaving them 19th in the table and seven points from safety with seven games to play.
Redknapp has also welcomed QPR owner Tony Fernandes’ public backing after he was assured his job as QPR manager is safe even if the club are relegated.
“I love it here. I love the club and the people,” said Redknapp, who arrived at Loftus Road in November. “If Tony Fernandes wants me to stay, I’ll stay. He’s a fantastic man.
“The owners here are fantastic people. They’re great to work with. I want us to stay up more than anything for them. We need to win five games. It’s a tall order but not impossible. I believe we can still do it.”
QPR face fellow Premier League strugglers Wigan on Sunday.
