This interesting book, Niger Dawn, is an autobiographical account of the personal experiences of the author, during a period at the turn of the twentieth century when she was a missionary in Nigeria.
It was published in the 1950s by Arthur H. Stockwell, an English publisher based in Ilfracombe, Devon, which is still active today. However, no specific publication date is given. The author's introduction is dated 1948 and a subsequent extract from The Times, being an obituary for Bishop Onyeabo, a Nigerian church leader, is dated 19th February 1954. A handwritten inscription on the front free endpaper is dated 1956.
This book isn't just an important account of missionary work in West Africa: It also gives an insight into the lives and customs of the Ibo people (also known as "Igbo", the largest ethnic group in Africa) who live either side of the River Niger. As the author noted in her introduction:
- The foundations of the remarkable growth and advance of the Christian Church on the Niger were laid in those pioneer days.
Niger Dawn is a good read for those interested in the history of church pioneering, and those interested in the social and cultural history of this small part of Africa.
Frances M. Hensley (nee Dennis) was a missionary with the British based Church Missionary Society (CMS). Little is known of Frances, though her faith is clearly shown through her words. She spent a period of twelve years from 1897 to 1909 helping to establish the Christian Church in the Ibo Country on the River Niger (Eastern Nigeria). A dedicated evangelist, she worked at Idumuje Ugboko on the Asaba side, west of the River Niger and also at Ebu on the eastern side of the river.
Her first autobiographical book of her experiences was published by the CMS in 1913. Titled A Fight For Life, it was well received, but I don't have a copy for reference.
In Niger Dawn we hear that Mrs Hensley was one of eight siblings. Two brothers, Thomas and Edward, and a sister, Nellie, worked with her among the pioneers "who helped to evangelise the Ibo Country at a time when there were no good roads or motor transport in the country; when inter-tribal wars and destruction of twins were the order of the day."
Thomas Dennis was the eldest sibling and arrived in Nigeria before his other siblings. He subsequently became the Archdeacon of Onitsha in 1905. He is best known for his translation of the bible into the Igbo language. This was first published in full in 1913.

“For there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
— The Apostle Peter
The first step in connecting with God is salvation. Perhaps you’re wondering, “Why is that even necessary? Aren’t we all connected to God?” Great question!
The Bible begins with a problem. Not immediately, but within the first few pages it is revealed that humanity is now separated from God by sin. Although we try by religious effort to reconnect with the divine, all such endeavor is vain. As the Apostle Peter pointed out, there is no other name, given among men, whereby we must be saved.
In the New Testament Book of Ephesians, the Apostle Paul clarifies the dilemma.
You… were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
The human condition is serious. We are all dead by sin and appointing a day of justice and wrath. But the bad news leads to the greatest news… the Gospel.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Salvation is a gift of God’s grace, made possible by the sacrifice of Christ on the cross. We at Cross Connection want you to know and grow in that grace by connecting with God through salvation.
If you’d like more information about how you can connect with God through salvation, please contact us.

A Marine who was convicted in the 2005 killings of unarmed Iraqi has returned home to Connecticut for a golf tournament organized by local veterans for his benefit.
The Marine Corps has discharged the lone Marine convicted in the 2005 killings of unarmed Iraqi civilians in the town of Haditha, a spokesman said Tuesday.
The lawyer who represented Meriden marine Frank Wuterich in his trial on an attack on civilians in Haditha, Iraq, is among the targets of the latest internet assault.
A government spokesman says Iraq will take legal action to ensure justice for the families of 24 unarmed Iraqi civilians killed in a U.S. raid in Haditha seven years ago, a reflection of anger after Meriden Marine Frank Wuterich escaped jail time at his trial.
Meriden Marine Frank Wuterich will spend no time in the military brig in his plea deal in his military trial in the death of civilians in Haditha, Iraq, and his pay will not be docked, but the military judge recommended he be reduced in rank to private.

Global Health 50/50 welcomes Katja Iversen and Sharmila Mhatre to its Advisory Council
Global Health 50/50 is honoured and delighted to welcome two new members to its Advisory Council: Katja Iversen, President and CEO of Women Deliver, and Sharmila Mhatre, Deputy Director of the Public Health Program at Open Society Foundations.
Katja Iversen is the President/CEO of Women Deliver – a leading global advocacy organization that champions gender equality and the health and rights of girls and women with a specific focus on maternal, sexual and reproductive health and rights. An internationally recognised expert on development, advocacy and communications, Katja has over 20 years of experience working in NGOs, United Nations agencies and corporations. She is a member of French President Macron’s G7 Gender Equality Advisory Council, the Unilever Sustainability Advisory Council, and the MIT Women & Technology Solve Leadership Group. Her unwavering commitment to the principles of equality, justice and human rights was celebrated in 2018 when she was named Dane of the Year.
“I am thrilled to join the Advisory Council of Global Health 50/50 alongside fellow changemakers and feminist troublemakers to strategise and deliver health, well-being, and dignity for all” said Katja Iversen.
Iversen’s enduring commitment to drawing attention to the power, privileges and priorities of global health will be integral to GH5050’s mission to inform, inspire, and incite positive change. As Iversen continued, “We know that a gender equal world is healthier, wealthier, more prosperous, and more peaceful—and it starts with all of us using our individual and institutional power to catalyse action and accountability.”
Global Health 50/50 is also delighted to welcome Sharmila Mhatre to the council. Sharmila Mhatre joined Open Society Foundations in 2016. Her expertise in health systems and policy research in low- and middle-income countries is founded on over 20 years of experience leading, designing and managing multi-sectoral health programmes with government, donor, and civil society collaborators in sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Latin America.
Prior to joining Open Society, Mhatre worked at Canada’s International Development Research Centre for over a decade where she headed the Governance for Equity in Health Systems program. She is a board member of the British Medical Journal Global Health and holds a PhD in health services research from the University of Toronto.
“The COVID-19 era calls on us to use a gender analysis to unpack systems of power and reimagine and restructure systems of care: from health, to economics, to education. Joining the Council was an offer to contribute that I could not refuse” said Sharmila Mhatre.
Sharmila’s vast experience of health systems and policies in low and middle-income countries will be invaluable as GH5050 continues to advocate for a fairer and more representative global health landscape and better health outcomes for all.
In these extraordinary times, where sex-disaggregated data highlights the gendered nature of burdens of disease and organisational inequity, we are grateful to have Iversen and Mhatre join the Advisory Council. Global Health 50/50 looks forward to collaborating with these two leaders in our collective push for gender equality in the global health system.
About the Advisory Council
The Global Health 50/50 Advisory Council is an informal group whose members serve as advocates and ambassadors for Global Health 50/50 in their personal capacities. Council members provide invaluable thought leadership and advice on good practice on global health and gender, as well as in supporting the development of the Global Health 50/50 initiative.

'Shameless' Star Jeremy Allen White Welcomes First Child With Longtime Girlfriend Addison Timlin
By Alex Ungerman
It's a big day for Lip Gallagher!
Shameless star Jeremy Allen White became a first-time father over the weekend, welcoming daughter Ezer Billie White with longtime girlfriend Addison Timlin on Saturday, who revealed the news on Instagram Sunday evening.
"Ezer Billie White 10.20.2018 Welcome to the world baby girl, it just got so much brighter," Timlin captioned the sweet post, which included snaps of both parents with their newborn daughter.
The news comes nearly four months after 27-year-old White revealed that he and Timlin were expecting in a sweet post for her 27th birthday, writing, "Happy birthday sweetheart. You’re gonna be the best momma, I love you."
White is saying hello to his new addition just as key members of his longtime TV family are saying goodbye. In addition to Cameron Monaghan's heartbreakingly beautiful exit from the beloved Showtime series last week, Gallagher family big sister and de facto matriarch Emmy Rossum also recently announced that she'd be leaving the show after nine seasons.
Watch the video below for what star William H. Macy told ET about the waterworks he let out at Rossum's last table read.

What’s the aim?
To build the skills of your leaders to:
- Act with inclusion front and centre in their decision-making, team and customer interactions
- Identify microaggressions and unconscious biases that inhibit diversity and inclusion
How do we approach it?
We use a conversational format to identify inclusive behaviours and subtle acts of exclusion.
Three areas of focus
- What do we mean by diversity and inclusion (includes a focus on different thinking approaches)
- What gets in the way: unconscious biases and microaggressions (subtle acts of exclusion)
- Actions I can take to be a more inclusive colleague during everyday moments (team meetings, decision-making, communicating with each other and clients).
By the end of the workshop, your team members will have:
- A consistent understanding of why a diverse and inclusive workplace matters, including how it fosters innovation and growth
- Have a greater understanding of unconscious biases and microaggressions that inhibit diversity (of thinking and demographic background) and inclusion
- An understanding of ways to be an ‘upstander’ when they notice biases, stereotypes, and other subtle acts of exclusion
- Identified practical actions they can take to demonstrate intentionally inclusive actions with colleagues and customers

Yokohama Rubber has announced its flagship Advan tyre has been selected as OE for the Nissan 370Z in various world markets. The Advan Sport in size 225/50R18 95W for the front and 245/45R18 96W for the rear will be fitted; vehicles equipped with the tyres were released in Japan on December 1, 2008, and will be gradually introduced into the global market. For the North American market, however, the car will be supplied with Bridgestone Potenza RE50A tyres, Bridgestone announced in November.
The Advan Sport was selected as OE for the Nissan 370Z for its proven stability and comfort at high speeds, says Yokohama, as well as for its breaking performance. The announcement of fitment to the new “Z” car adds to an already impressive OE list – the Advan has been chosen as original equipment for the Bentley Continental series, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4, the Audi S8, and three models in Mercedes Benz’s top class AMG series.

Seattle, WA – Ski and snowboard gear maker K2 Sports is currently in the middle of a multi-year investment plan, and industry veteran Tim Petrick has returned to the company as President of K2 Sports Global Sales and Marketing, effective immediately. Petrick, who recently resigned from his position as president of Rossignol North America, will report to Anthony De Rocco, President and CEO of K2 Sports, in the newly-created role.
“We are very proud to welcome Tim back to the family of K2 Sports,” said De Rocco. “Tim has worked side-by-side with our global teams and our retail partners for almost 20 years. He knows our DNA intimately and the market climate very well and our retail partners know and trust him. Tim will be a strong leader to further the momentum to our next era of growth and success during K2 Sports’ most pivotal time of opportunity on the domestic and global level.”
The strategic move brings Petrick full circle with K2 Sports, a company with which he’s invested nearly two decades of his career. Petrick first worked with K2 Sports as VP and General Manager of the ski division from 1989-1997 before going to Booth Creek Ski Holdings as Executive VP of Product Development. He returned to K2 Sports in 2000 as VP of Global Sales and remained there until 2009 when he left to head Rossignol North America.
“Returning to K2 Sports is an incredible opportunity,” said Petrick. “The company has market leading iconic brands across many outdoor active lifestyle categories. These leading brands give K2 Sports the unparalleled opportunity to build on the company’s reputation for product innovation, retail sales results, and ultimately, satisfied consumers in the years ahead.”
The scope of K2 Sports’ investment venture will see resources allocated toward global sales expansion, manufacturing and technology platform enhancements, new category launches including ski boots, and accelerated brand growth. Petrick will help orchestrate product line decisions, trade policies, distribution solutions, and marketing communications across the K2 Sports portfolio of brands.
“We have exciting growth opportunities with product line launches in winter sports, our Zoot brand of triathlon gear, and our new Spring ’13 collection – which is leading to great counter seasonal growth,” said Petrick. “Couple these with our targeted growth initiatives developed with our parent-company Jarden, and these are truly exciting times at K2 Sports.”

Trying to redress mistaken approaches to Ulysses, this article still gets it wrong:
The big question Birmingham’s book raises without precisely answering is whether Ulysses remains dangerous, now that the sexual mores and political anxieties of the 20s and 30s have vanished. When I put the question to him directly, he suggested that the novel is still dangerous—but only to those who take the time to read it. Birmingham compared reading Ulysses to taking a slow-acting drug that gradually reshapes our understanding of ourselves, working its way into our consciousness as we read it, unsettling who we are.
Birmingham is Kevin, author of The Most Dangerous Book: The Battle for James Joyce’s Ulysses. James S. Murphy’s assumption that Ulysses — art — must have this transformative effect is akin to elementary and high school teachers stressing the nutritive virtues of Shakespeare and nineteenth century British poetry: you can’t leave the table until you eat two more bites of Coleridge!
By placing Ulysses on a pedestal, we lose sight of both its vulgar origins and its power to tell us deep truths about our world and ourselves precisely by keeping the earthy and obscene aspects of ourselves in view
A tautological argument. Books that tell us deep truths about our world are the ones kept on the pedestals Murphy wants to knock down.
When I read Ulysses at seventeen its ambition awed me, alas. Keeping Stuart Gilbert’s guide and a set of rather good Cliff Notes close, I rewarded myself for passing through the fire, as it were. Without knowing a thing about New Criticism I observed one of its central tenets: a novel or poem wasn’t any good if it wasn’t difficult. Readers wary of grabbing a novel laden with a century’s worth of cultural capital should consider the piecemeal approach. The first two chapters will surprise no one familiar with A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man or realist fiction since Flaubert. Learn which chapters appeal most to your sensibilities. Skip the rest. Try other stuff later if so inclined.

The 2009 swine flu pandemic may have killed as many as 575,000 people, according to research.
Lancet Infectious Diseases journal claims that the real death toll of the H1N1 flu outbreak could be as much as 30 times higher than that of the 18,500 laboratory-confirmed deaths reported worldwide between April 2009 and August 2010 if the top estimate is taken.
The study was put together by a global team of researchers, who explain that laboratory-confirmed death tolls are always significantly lower than the real figure.
The team developed a model using influenza-specific data from 12 low, middle and high-income countries, which hypothesises that the risk of flu death was higher in certain countries than in others that were more developed, before using data provided by the World Health Organisation on lower respiratory tract mortality to account for the differences.
The authors were only able to acquire data from countries that kept data on the numbers of people who developed flu symptoms and flu deaths during the pandemic, but low and middle-income countries were notably low on data. Because of the shortage of precise data the authors suggest an estimated death toll of 15 times higher than previous estimates.
Despite the lack of certainty about the figures, the study reveals the shocking reality behind the 2009 outbreak, as well as reigniting fears over the potential human cost of another pandemic. Newly released mortality data from Mexico suggests that the toll in that country even exceeded the study's estimates.
Lead author Dr Fatimah Dawood said: "The study underscores the significant human toll of an influenza pandemic. We hope that this work can be used not only to improve influenza disease burdens modelling globally, but to improve the public health response during future pandemics in parts of the world that suffer more deaths, and to increase the public's awareness of the importance of influenza prevention."
The study concludes: "Continued efforts to strengthen influenza surveillance worldwide, particularly for influenza-associated mortality, are needed both to guide seasonal influenza prevention strategies and to build influenza surveillance systems to provide better and more timely and globally representative data for influenza-assciated mortality during future pandemics."
The first known victim of the swine flu pandemic was infected in central Mexico in March 2009. It took the disease just one month to cross the border to the US and reach California.
Before long, it had spread to 74 countries and was officially declared a pandemic. According to the study findings, the majority of the victims died in Africa, with children most likely to be infected.
Because so many of the sufferers were children, swine flu cost more than three times as many years of life, 9.7 million, than seasonal flu outbreaks, which would typically cost 2.8 million years.

He gets that from my husband's side of the family; those Carters can sleep! Me? I wake up when the wind blows a stray leaf against my window pane. For years when my husband was away filming on location, I slept with the lights on and a baseball bat by my side.
Since Jurassic World is opening in a few days—June 10th through 12th most everywhere in the world, except Japan, where they have to wait until August—today's Saturday Matinee is the original Jurassic Park movie based on Michael Crichton's bestseller. What's cool is you can watch it this afternoon plus it's on TV this week and next on a load of channels. Check out the schedule, see what fits yours. But no worry, you can always catch it on Google-Play, Amazon, iTunes and M-Go, whatever that is.
At this point I've lost count of how many times I've seen the film, mostly with my boys. The Oscar winning film (sound, sound f/x editing and visual f/x) has achieved classic status for me because after all these years, and however many viewings, it still holds up. But it wasn't just the special effects that made this movie special; it was the characters.
Sam Neil's paleontologist Dr. Grant and the potential love interest with Laura Dern's Ellie. Jeff Goldblum's frenetic chaos theory flirt. Park owner Richard Attenborough's delusional wishful thinking and dawning realization that his little dinosaur park was a big mess and that he'd put his own grandkids in danger. Those kids, that big sister and her little brother, and how they banded together, and conquered their fear. Wayne Knight, who we know better as Newman, as the double-dealing bad guy who really gets his comeuppance. We had whole relationships with all the characters which made the dinosaur attack all the more powerful. Whether we whooped and giggled guiltily when the T-Rex tears the outhouse, and the annoying, smarmy lawyer inside it, to pieces or bit our nails worrying about those kids trapped in the kitchen, we were invested. Hopefully the newest iteration, Jurassic World starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard will keep that in mind.
Here are both trailers, just for the 'fun' of it! Happy Saturday.

Indie horror hero Adam Green will bring his new, secret HATCHET (film) sequel, VICTOR CROWLEY, to Nightmares Film Festival as their NFF17 Opening Night Film.
Set a decade after the events of the series’ first three films, Victor Crowley reunites Hatchet mainstays Kane Hodder (Friday the 13th 7 – X’s Jason Voorhees) and Parry Shen (Better Luck Tomorrow) for an all-new, horrifying journey into the haunted, blood-drenched bayou.
“In 2007, forty-nine people were brutally torn to pieces in Louisiana’s Honey Island Swamp. Over the past decade, lone survivor Andrew Yong’s claims that local legend Victor Crowley was responsible for the horrific massacre have been met with great controversy, but when a twist of fate puts him back at the scene of the tragedy, Crowley is mistakenly resurrected and Yong must face the bloodthirsty ghost from his past.”
See it and meet director Adam Green Thursday night, Oct. 19 at Nightmares Film Festival. Nightmares Film Festival is horror’s top-rated film festival on FilmFreeway.com and is the place to see all of the newest horror flicks circulating the festivals this season. If you’re in the Columbus, Ohio area the weekend of October 19-22 I highly recommend you stop by! You may even run into us World of Deathers while you’re there, wink wink.

A dramatic sketch of waves breaking on the shore at Le Croisic, Brittany, using colour to create the effect. The waves break in a horizontal band across the foreground, and, using short brush strokes, Everett has painted them as thick patches of colour, varying between deep purple and bright green. He has captured the effect of the sun low in the middle of the picture towards the horizon. The sky is loosely painted with purple and blue clouds contrasting with the lighter cream clouds and the vivid slash of yellow. The shallows in the foreground are shown as small slashes of colour, picking up the brilliance of the sun in the reflections.

Fatty acid binding protein-2 (FABP2; also I- or intestinal FABP) is a member of a large superfamily of lipid binding proteins that are expressed in a tissue specific manner (1‑3). FABP2 is one of nine cytoplasmic FABPs that are 14‑15 kDa in size and range from 126‑134 amino acids (aa) in length (2). Although all are highly conserved in their tertiary structure, there is only modest aa identity between any two members. Nevertheless, based on aa sequence, the nine FABP family members have been shown to form three subgroups, with FABP2/I-FABP linked with liver/L-FABP and heart/H-FABP (2). The designation of a tissue type, such as intestinal, does not suggest the binding protein is universally expressed in all cell types that make up the organ or tissue. Human I-FABP, the product of the FABP-2 gene, is a 132 aa cytosolic protein that shows a flattened beta -barrel structure (called a beta -clam) generated by a series of antiparallel beta -strands and two alpha -helices (1, 2, 4). Preferred ligands for FABP2 include sixteen to twenty carbon long chain fatty acids (4). It is suggested that ligands first bind to the outside of the molecule, and this binding subsequently induces a conformational change in the binding protein, resulting in “internalization” of the ligand.(1) An Ala-to-Thr polymorphism at position # 54 has been reported to potentially impact FABP2 function (2). This polymorphism has been suggested to be associated with an increased risk of type II diabetes. To date, the evidence appears to be equivocal (1, 2). This polymorphism may, however, have unusual metabolic effects depending upon the type of diet involved (1, 5). Human FABP-2 is 78%, 82% and 86% aa identical to mouse, rat and canine FABP2, respectively. It also shows 33% and 24% aa identity to human H-FABP and L‑FABP, respectively. FABP2 is proposed to transport fatty acids (FA) into cells, increase FA availability to enzymes, protect cell structures from FA attack, and target FA to transcription factors in the nuclear lumen (3).

The free-to-watch programming aims to generate buzz around the upcoming announcement of the secret screening on Jan. 23 at 6 p.m., leaving horror fans 24 hours to stream the pic. Tickets for the virtual fest will be available on a first come, first served basis via ticketing links on darkstarpics.com.
“Taking advantage of virtual platforms now available to us, we thought we’d have a little fun and give you a taste of the future and our exciting new collaboration with Bloody Disgusting. We’re beyond stoked for you to not just hear, but see our latest surprise acquisition!” Dark Star creative director Josh Goldbloom said in a statement.
The feature films that already screened at Sundance, Fantasia, Nightstream and Cinepocalypse will be streamed as part of the free virtual festival to be hosted on the Eventive platform.
The first release from the Dark Star and Bloody Disgusting label is the backwoods horror film Honeydew that stars Sawyer Spielberg, the actor and Steven Spielberg’s son in his feature performance debut.
The slasher pic written and directed by Devereux Milburn is set to be released in theaters in March 2021, with a VOD/digital and DVD release to follow in April.
Honeydew was originally supposed to premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival, but those plans got upended by COVID-19. It has found its audience via the Nightstream festival, as well as stops at the Rome International Film Festival and FrightFest UK.

Playing up the history of contemporary brands with a past is all the rage. It started with the Zaha Hadid-designed Chanel Mobile Art tour, which boasted a hugely oversized quilted 2.55 bag among its many works of art. The look to the past continued with Louis Vuitton’s Core Values ad campaign, which featured, among others, Annie Leibovitz, Keith Richards, and Francis Ford Coppola with daughter Sofia.
The series of LV ads were meant to evoke the heritage of the brand’s classic monogram leather goods. Richards was chosen because seeing his image conjures up memories for the "20-year-old who’s into rock ‘n’ rol,l and the 65-year-olds who went to a Rolling Stones concert when they were 20," according to Antoine Arnault, head of communication at Louis Vuitton. Don’t forget the slew of heritage-inspired fragrances, including Ferragamo’s latest, Incanto Bloom. Now Sonia Rykiel, Gucci, and Chanel (once again) are getting into the fashion history mix.
Just a few days ago, Gucci’s artisan tour came stateside when the brand had some of their master leather workers stop in major cities, including San Francisco and New York. They’ve been touring the world for the past three months to show off their skills through a free demonstration and customized Gucci bag options. As for Chanel, from May 8th to May 16th, Chanel’s 57th Street flagship store in New York City will be hosting an exhibit highlighting the history of their signature quilted bag. The exhibition is being called "The Secrets of the Chanel Handbag", and covers everything from the construction to its evolution over the years. The most exciting part is that, in addition to a slew of Karl Lagerfeld-designed bags, there will be bags from the house’s archives that will be specially brought in.
Not to be outdone, Parisian designer Sonia Rykiel has dug up some of her drawing – 200 sketches and notebooks – which will be on display and for sale in the Galerie Catherine Houard in Paris’ Saint-Germain-des-Présm, from June 4th through July 24th.

By Katie Wheeler, Canton Resident
The world knows Chick-fil-A by the employees’ pleasant demeanor and “my pleasure” slogan. It makes sense that you might associate Chick-fil-A with kindness. Kevin Williams, though, a local franchise owner and entrepreneur, has taken Chick-fil-A’s infamous kindness to an irrational new level.
Kevin Williams is one of a few Chick-fil-A triple franchisees, and all three restaurants are in Cherokee County. Early on, Kevin was inspired to work hard, treat people with respect, and let his dreams develop along the way. He attributes much of his success to the strong foundation laid through his faith and his family. In 1985 Kevin was a teenager in Tucker, Georgia, with high hopes for his neighborhood landscaping business when Truett Cathy, founder of Chick-fil-A, visited Kevin’s church to speak about entrepreneurship. Truett’s irrational and people-centered approach to business sparked a fire in Kevin. The fire grew slowly through Kevin’s various businesses and career paths, and eventually it spread throughout Cherokee County.Kevin has authored Irrational Kindness: The Crazy Pursuit of an Extraordinary Life, branded as part employee handbook, part operating manual for life. Each chapter contains one of Kevin’s stories related to one of his guiding principles for life. The anecdotes are followed by a “Kindness Pause” between chapters that encourage a moment of reflection on the life lesson just explained. The feel-good book includes a foreword by Bob Goff, New York Times bestselling author of Love Does and Everybody, Always.
Irrational Kindness is a perspective changer and a passionate project for Kevin, never straying from mentioning the roots of the Irrational Kindness movement right here in Canton, Georgia.
Kevin got his start with Chick-fil-A after working at various locations and being persistent in getting his foot in the door as a franchisee. Truett Cathy was one of the first businessmen to design a franchise model that allowed investors with few assets to own their own business with very little upfront cost. Kevin began his pursuit of owning his own restaurant with Chick-fil-A in 1991. After a two-year chase, in 1993 he received his first assignment—to turn around an unprofitable store in Midtown Atlanta. “It was a challenging store, and I had never been in the restaurant business, but I knew the business was all about people,” Kevin explains. In his book he recalls, “I worked as hard as I ever had to build relationships with every team member. I saw that building these relationships would be the driving force behind managing quality and cost.” Kevin’s people-first frame of mind carried on past his first Chick-fil-A and allowed him to move forward to opening the Canton Riverstone location in 1996. By 2009 Kevin was able to open his second location at the Canton Marketplace, and ten years after that, he opened a third in Hickory Flat.
Long before Kevin wrote Irrational Kindness, he made it a passion and priority to put kindness at the forefront of his business model. He says, “Kindness over Everything has always been the motto at our Canton stores.” This slogan was internally referred to as “irrational kindness,” hence the name of his book. The staff also wears sweatshirts encouraging, “Be Canton. Be Kind.”
Irrational Kindness stemmed initially from Kevin’s over-the-top commitment to “Coffee with Kevin,” a twenty-five-year tradition wherein he invites all newly hired team members to sit with him one-on-one. Kevin says, “I share principles that are important to me in life: the beauty of failure, persistence, how God created you original, and how wonderful you are the way He created you.” His goal with all new team members is to learn about their dreams and goals and help them reach those goals, even beyond their time with Chick-fil-A.
What exactly does “irrational kindness” mean? In his book Kevin writes, “To us, irrational kindness is much more active. . . . It reminds us to stay kind, respectful, and courteous, even when we hear something we don’t agree with or understand, and the courage to stay, even when we don’t see progress.” He goes on to say, “It’s important to note this level of kindness does not mean selling out, giving in, or getting run over—it simply means being kind, even when it seems irrational.” Irrational kindness, he says, is more than random acts of kindness. The difference is in being kind despite fear of being wrong and despite the scales not balancing in your favor. This brand of kindness is not one we see often, but it is one we can find in Jesus’s teachings—something Kevin looks to constantly. Our world can seem overwhelmed with negativity, but it brings hope and joy to know there are people like Kevin and the Chick-fil-A team spreading irrational kindness through our community. Imagine if we all picked up a dose of irrational kindness to give to others!
Kevin puts into play a tangible aspect of irrational kindness through his project called The Farm. It is a fifteen-acre lot in Cherokee County that Kevin envisioned as his team’s meeting spot. Kevin’s mind, though, teems with ideas for how The Farm can be used to benefit all members of our community and beyond. In his book Kevin calls it “a spot for community connection; a farm where relationships can grow.” He has hopes for the space to be used for anything and everything related to the community. The land could be a meeting place for events, ministry programs, counseling services, support groups, or creative retreats. Without designated programs to be held there, The Farm is to be used as the community needs it. It may seem irrational, but that’s Kevin’s style.Kevin and our local Chick-fil-A teams are passionate about spreading irrational kindness through Cherokee County and the world. Kevin urges our community to continue the conversation around kindness and how to transform our lives to center around kindness as a lifestyle. He explains the goodness that can result if we change our thoughts toward living a more intentional, irrationally kinder life. Kevin’s goal for the book is to make an impact through practicing irrational kindness. He does so by donating all book proceeds to benefit foster children, adopted children, and families in crisis. Kevin has made his career at Chick-fil-A about much more than chicken. His perspective is a great model for us all. We can all make our jobs and careers about something more. It’s an irrational way of thinking, and it can change the world. Kindness can domino around the globe. It seems irrational, but we can do it.

Special Blog Series: We Herts Folklorists
This is the first post of a special weekly blog series we’ll be running over the next few weeks, showcasing some of the wonderful talent of people who have recently completed the MA in Folklore Studies at the University of Hertfordshire. Throughout this series you will see some great folklore-inspired work, ranging from blogs to art.
First up is Jenny O’Sullivan!
My first degree was in History of Art, which I graduated from in 1997, and since then I have worked in a variety of fields, only returning to university when I discovered the MA in Folklore Studies. It seemed to cover the things I find most fascinating in life, such as the stories we tell each other, the things we believe, and the material culture produced from this. Equally, the interdisciplinary nature of Folklore Studies really appealed to me. My MA dissertation focused on needlework practices and their links to women’s histories, uncovering the meaningfulness of stitching for those who sew. The fieldwork interviews I conducted opened up many avenues of further interest and I hope to expand this to PhD research at some point in the future. My folklore interests in general are very far-ranging, the first blog post I wrote as a university assignment, was on The Six Hills of Stevenage which involved a delve into local history archives, old newspapers and some social media research to discover more about the unloved ancient barrows. The second blog post used folklore to explore the lives of Irish women emigrants to the United States during the nineteenth century. The online Irish folklore archive was both fascinating and invaluable for this research and I spent many nights down a West of Ireland folklore rabbit hole. Finally, the last blog post investigated the folklore of my other great love – football. By looking at the rituals and popular beliefs of football fans and basing some of the research on my own fieldwork, it examines the behaviours and beliefs of football fans as being akin to vernacular religion.
Jenny’s blog is called Making of Magic.

Last year there were some plums and apples growing on a plot of land in Seattle that was slated for imminent development.
That might be one of the least surprising sentences you can write in Seattle. Such goings on are entirely inevitable in a city of constant construction that used to be an orchard. The fact that the fruit growing on those trees was nearly pest-free, however, was highly unusual.
Those beautiful fruits belonged to heritage varieties of apples and plums, trees that were likely planted in the late 1930s by Japantown immigrants. The trees are a living remnant of Nihonmachi, a neighborhood that thrived as the heart of Seattle’s Japanese American community until World War II. In the 1940’s, many members of the Nihonmachi community were forcibly removed and interned, leading to redevelopment, urban renewal, and the ultimate loss of much of the Nihonmachi legacy.
Seattle Green Spaces Coalition came across the apple and plum trees last fall and asked City Fruit to be involved in helping to preserve this thriving remnant of the Nihonmachi legacy. The collaboration quickly grew to include all sorts of Seattle community members, from arborists to professors, to scheme and dream up a preservation strategy.
Though there is no way to successfully transplant a nearly century-old tree, branches of apples and plums can be grafted onto new rootstock, preserving the genetic identity of the original tree. A particularly nimble local arborist climbed the gnarled trees to harvest scion wood from their supple new growths. The harvest resulted in 50 “baby” Nihonmachi tree grafts, crafted by City Fruit’s own Master Fruit Tree Stewards. These new little clones have since taken root in community spaces all around the city, focusing, of course, on parks in and around Japantown.
I’m always searching for ways to make food waste feel more real: stories that go beyond numbers and statistics to help me feel the weight of an apple being dropped into a compost bin; colors in the broader picture we paint as a city of what food waste is, what it means to us. For me, the Nihonmachi trees have provided an opportunity to reassess what it means to save Seattle’s apples.
City Fruit’s Save Seattle’s Apples campaign is an endeavor to prevent food waste in this city. We’ve looked at the food waste hierarchy, trying to plug in at every level: reducing food waste by preventing pests from making perfectly consumable fruits unsavory, feeding people by still turning those previously unappetizing, pest-y fruits into cider, feeding livestock by donating pressed apples to local chickens and goats. Lurking behind that pyramid though, is the question of how to get people (myself included) to use it, how to convince ourselves that the effort (because it often is a lot of work) is worth it. When faced with a blooming apple tree, why bother with the rigmarole of netting and bagging and pressing and finding a neighbor who’s jonesing for some chicken feed?
When that tree is a Nihonmachi apple, the reasons to prevent food waste—to eke every last drop out of those historic fruits—are suddenly so clear. Respecting and honoring the legacy of the Japantown immigrants who planted those original apples and plums makes jumping up on a ladder with an apron full of baggies and twist ties the most obvious thing in the world.

Tom Brady has made a career out of doubling down his efforts for the best possible results. The New England Patriots quarterback, five-time Super Bowl champion, four-time Super Bowl MVP, and three-time NFL MVP remains winning to this day, despite being at the tender old age of forty. Not exactly ripe for retirement as with us regular folk, but put it into the terms of a pro athlete and it’s practically dog years. So how exactly has he done it? What makes the sixth round draft pick tick? What fires up old mate Brady’s engines?
The secret, much like all our mothers insisted when we were younger, is a rigorous bit of exercise and a healthy plate of something every single day. Healthy living down to the capital T.
Here’s everything Tom Brady eats and drinks on an average day to remain a champion player, and one of the most valuable quarterbacks in NFL history.
- “Immediate” twenty ounce hit of water with electrolytes when he wakes up at 6AM
- Hydration is extremely important to Brady, claiming to sink twelve to twenty-five glasses of water a day with TB12 electrolyte concentrate (“I add electrolytes to virtually everything I drink.”)
- Smoothies, typically containing blueberries, bananas, seeds, and nuts (“Nutrient dense, high in fat, high in protein, and high in calories.”)
- No coffee or Red Bulls here, obviously
- More water with more electrolytes during his morning workout
- Protein shakes made with one scoop of his self-branded protein powder, almond milk, and yes, more electrolytes after his morning workout
- $50 packs of his own TB12 snacks at 11AM before lunch with a lot of the same nutrients of what he has already consumed– got to put your money/brand where your mouth is
- “… A piece of fish, but always with lots of vegetables.”
- Unromantic, but beats the hell out of a fish and a rice cake…
- Brady follows some general principles when mixing and matching with food:
I. Never eat proteins with carbs eg. bread and potatoes,
II. Mixing proteins and carbs with vegetables is “ideal” for digestion (“I make sure most of what I eat is alkalising.)
- Brady’s “alkaline diet” supposedly minimises muscle inflammation with 80% of his diet being alkalising eg. dandelion greens, Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes
- Some vegetables he avoids for fear of inflammation includes mushrooms, eggplants, tomatoes, and peppers
- He tries to limit “acidifying” foods eg. white rice and bread, cold cuts, pineapples, yogurt, etc.
- Between 2PM to 5PM, he snack attacks again with more protein shakes, protein bars, or fruits likes apples, bananas, and grapes
- Brady’s other principle of food combination is to never eat fruit with other food, which he claims to be bad for digestion (“Eat fruits alone… They digest quickly. Other foods don’t.”)
- His principle regarding not drinking much water with meals stands because of a similar reasons (“Drinking water with your meals can interfere with good digestion… Drink water half an hour before a meal, and then wait an hour before you have your next glass.”)
- Other Brady approved snacks include chips and guac, hummus, raw vegetables, or another protein shake
- Dinner occurs at 6PM in the Brady household
- “… Nutrient-dense [meals]…” with lots of vegetables is the go
- Brady doesn’t really drink tea or grog, but a cup of bone broth never goes amiss
- There’s plenty of chicken, duck, grass-fed steak, and wild salmon at the centrepiece of an evening meal here
- Some other examples of a T-Bone dinner includes chicken or salmon burgers with a variety of salads with avocados and greens, the rare hit of carbs with creamy brown rice flour pasta, and the rare indulgence of avocado ice cream for dessert (even his desserts are healthy, unbelievable…)
- “It’s always about balance,” says the man himself
Well, it’s not the most exciting daily feeds, so surely Brady must get bored… right? Apparently not:
And there you have it.

Nick Fairley on Saturday met with reporters for the first time since being arrested twice in the span of a month.
The Detroit Lions defensive tackle was charged with possession of marijuana in April and, in May, driving under the influence and attempting to elude police. In June, Fairley stayed out of trouble.
On Saturday, he told the Detroit Free Press, at his first-annual charity kickball tournament for kids, that parents should have no concerns about his ability to mentor their children.
"Because I'm a great guy," Fairley said. "Simple as that."
Fairley is among a maze of Lions players arrested this offseason. Johnny Culbreath was arrested once and Mikel Leshoure twice for marijuana possession. Aaron Berry last month was booked for DUI and hit-and-run.
"I haven't turned my back on none of my friends," Fairley said. "I'm still friends with everybody that I've been friends with. Like I said, just surrounding myself with better persons, people that got my best interests at heart: people in the locker, players just picking me up."
At some stage, we're going to chat about something the Lions accomplish on the field. We promise you.
