With the increase in the automobile market, motorcycle manufacturing businesses in India have been attempting to meet the rising demand from the budget-conscious population. In recent times, the need for commuter bikes has increased.
It is demonstrated by the fact that the top-selling motorcycles of all time in India fall into the inexpensive bike category.
The price factor is equally significant despite the preference for motorcycles with greater mileage and power. Therefore, notable motorcycle manufacturers such as Bajaj are producing bikes that are neither too pricey nor inexpensive. The great majority of individuals purchase bikes priced between 50,000 – 70,000. Here are the best bikes under 70000.
Bajaj Platina 110
Talking about the best bikes under 70000, we would be doing an injustice, if we don't talk about Bajaj Platina 110. The Platina 110 comes with an Anti-Slip Braking System, which is one of the most important upgrades. The Anti-Skid Braking System works like the Combined Braking System in that when the rider presses only the rear brake pedal, both brakes are applied at the same time.
It is more comfortable due to its spring-on-spring suspension that easily absorbs even the strongest of jerks smoothly. The motorcycle also comes standard with tubeless tires. The new Bajaj Platina 110 is driven by a 115.5cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine that produces 8.4 PS of power at 7000 RPM whereas 9.81 Nm of peak torque at 5000 RPM. The torque value is the greatest in its category. Also, the engine is paired with a 4-speed manual transmission.
Image source- Bajaj
Mileage: The mileage of the Bajaj Platina 110 is 72 kilometers per liter. It has a semi-digital instrument cluster that shows the odometer, trip meter, and when to shift gears. The Platina employs normal headlight and tail lamp bulbs for its electrical components. Regarding safety, it comes equipped with a combined brake system (CBS).
Handling: In Platina 110, the suspension is taken care of by 135 mm telescopic front forks and 110 mm spring-on-spring. 130 mm drums handle braking up front and 110 mm drums in the rear, both of which are fitted with an Anti-Skid Braking System that provides an equal braking force on both wheels.
Platina 100
It is a reliable option among commuting best bikes under 70000. The Platina 100 has a single-cylinder, air-cooled, fuel-injected, 102cc engine that can be started with a simple kick. The black finish on the rearview mirrors makes them look very nice and gives them a great field of view.
Image source- Bajaj
Mileage: The Platina 100 is a motorcycle with exceptional fuel economy. In the city, one might anticipate speeds of between 65 and 70 km/l. On the highway, you might anticipate between 70 and 75 km/l. The 11-litre feul tank provides a total range of 700-750 kilometres.
Handling: The Platina 100 is responsive and agile in its handling. The front telescopic forks and rear comfort suspension help make the ride smooth, comfortable, and stable. In addition, this motorcycle's tube cradle frame excellently disperses the kerb weight of 116–119 kg over its body.
Bajaj CT 110X
The Bajaj CT110 X is a motorcycle worthy of your consideration for the best bikes under 70000 category. Its original and one-of-a-kind parts make it one of the strongest and most stylish bikes on the market. With a 110cc engine, it is suitable for city travel as well as highway travel.
Image source- Bajaj
Mileage: The Bajaj CT110's fuel efficiency is 104 km/h. When the throttle is depressed, the maximum speed of the motorcycle is 85 km/h.
Handling: On paved surfaces, the Bajaj CT110 performs brilliantly. The telescopic fork suspension up front and the SNS suspension in the back make it easy for the bike to ride over rough roads. A tubular semi-double-cradle frame chassis supports it. Front and rear 130mm drum brakes offer to stop force. The CT110 is fitted with both ends with 80/100-17 tyres.

The EBC process
So why rely on East Bench Composites to fix your bike?
With our ultrasound capabilities we can tell if your bike will need a repair with accuracy.
-We're professional and thorough
There is a right way to professionally repair a carbon fiber bicycle, so that it is safe, trustworthy, and reliable. At East Bench Composites, we pride ourselves on our process that we have dialed in specifically for the repair in question. We start with an A-Scan pulse-echo ultrasound combined with a tap test to ensure all the damaged material is removed from the bike.
-We match the original design of the frame to get the ride feel correct
Our skilled technicians read the carbon laminate layer by layer so that each replacement ply of carbon fiber is properly oriented to match the original layup of the bicycle thereby matching the original strength and stiffness. We design our repair patch unique to each bicycle we repair, using the aerospace standard 20:1 Scarf ratio to ensure proper load transfer from the patch to the parent material.
-We use the right stuff and double check our work
We use only the correct prepreg carbon fiber with optimized fiber/resin ratio in order to eliminate voids, volatiles, and uncured resin. We cure our patches using a heat controller that is constantly self adjusting to ensure the specified cure cycle is completed. Lastly, we inspect our work with the same A-scan pulse echo ultrasound that we started with to ensure that no damage remains.
-Your bike deserves it, don't skip on a quality repair
There are 'DIY carbon repair kits' out there that we strongly caution against. These kits use two part resin systems which lead to matrix variability, cheap tape wrap leading to uneven compaction, and a carbon fabric that is NOT the material that your bike was intended to use. At East Bench Composites we promise that we will never skimp on costs by using these methods, and neither should you.

Nenagh Castle
The castle is Nenagh's oldest building, and its construction in the 13th Century laid the foundation for the development of the town. Theobald FitzWalter, whose successors would become Earls and Dukes of Ormond, built the castle and upon its completion c.1220 it served as the main seat of the Butler family. The keep, the 100ft high tower house that is today known as Nenagh Castle, was at one time surrounded by walls, along which were placed a gate house and two defensive towers. The keep is in a good state of repair; however only remains of the gatehouse and one small tower currently remain.

Defensive Features
Leask described Nenagh Castle as "the most remarkable structure of its kind in Ireland", and it was built specifically with defence in mind. The walls at the base of the castle are "splayed", which protected the base from canon fire, and the subsequent curvature of the walls allowed missiles dropped from above to ricochet outwards upon the assailants. Also to be seen on the wall is a "machicolation". This is a stone platform that projects from the third floor, resulting in an overhang on top of attackers. The platform had a central opening, through which defenders dropped an array of missiles down directly on the heads of those below.

From Nenagh to Boston
It was at Nenagh Castle, in 1336, that a peace treaty was signed between James, the 1st Earl of Ormond, and a representative of the O'Kennedy family. The treaty included terms of peace and grants of lands for the Gaelic clan, but the agreement is more noteworthy because of what became of it over 600 years later. The treaty was presented as a gift to John F. Kennedy during his state visit to Ireland in 1963, and it is now housed in the J.F.K Library in Massachusetts. As for the O'Kennedy's adherence to the treaty, they would go on to break its terms in spectacular fashion in 1347-8, when they unsuccessfully attacked the Castle and burnt the town. In this endeavour they were assisted by the O'Briens and O'Carrolls.
Attempts at Capture and Destruction
The Castle led a charmed life during the turbulent 17th Century. During the course of the Confederate and Cromwellian Wars it was seized on three separate occasions, until it was finally granted to Col. Daniel Abbot, along with extensive lands, in lieu of pay from Cromwell. The Butlers regained it after the Restoration in 1660. During the Jacobite War Anthony O'Carroll took the Castle from James, the 2nd Duke, who supported William, but it was retaken in August 1690, by Ginkel. Two years later William ordered its demolition so that it would be "rendered indefensible in ill hands". The keep, however was only partly damaged. Further destruction was wrought in 1750, when a farmer called Newsome attempted to demolish the Castle, as the sparrows it housed were destroying his barley crop nearby.
The battlements on top of the keep were rebuilt in 1861, and further conservation was undertaken in 1929. In 1985 the field around the Castle was developed as a small town park. The Office of Public works currently maintains the building.

The organiser of Southampton International Boat Show, British Marine, has pledged to make the 2021 exhibition the most sustainable in its 52-year history.
There are new rules for the hundreds of exhibitors, including a ban on single use plastic bottles on their stands and a commitment to only offering sustainable and recyclable promotional material.
Each exhibitor must also nominate a 'Sustainability Champion' who will oversee the management of waste and recycling on their stand.
These policies are all part of the boat show's five year sustainability pledge. During the 2019 show over 7.5 tons of waste was diverted from landfill through the actions of exhibitors.
It's not just the exhibitors who are being asked to make changes. Those attending are being encouraged to use e-tickets instead of printing their admissions and use public transport to reach the marina.
Visitors can also pick up environmentally friendly products and services at the Green Blue Stand. This hosts a wide selection of sailing products that take into consideration the environmental impact of the sport.
To add to this, some of the boats on display are environmentally conscious too. The Pulse 63 by RS Electric Boats claims to have zero emissions, no unpleasant fumes and no risk of oil spills.
British Marine's CEO Lesley Robinson stated: "From rope manufacturer Marlow, which makes its Blue Ocean Dockline using 100% recycled waste plastic bottles, and Henri-Lloyd's new MAV Mid Hoody made from 17 recycled 1.5L PET bottles, to Halyard's Wave filters which prevent oil or other pollutants being inadvertently pumped overboard, and Micfil Ultra Fine filters, which ensure cleaner fuel and oil, reducing emissions, and even the natural hand and surface sanitisers from Ecoworks that help keep people safe from COVID and are healthier for the environment too, this show is packed with products and services which are sustainable and help protect the environment which we love".

James Scott-Anderson, British Marine's lead on the environment, says "by clearly defining categories, we can help everyone attending or visiting the show to be aware of small or large changes that can be made by the organisers, the exhibitors and the visitors."
The Southampton International Boat Show will run until September 19, with tickets still available to buy from the website.

- From: Subu Ayyagari <subu.ayyagari [at] gmail.com>
- To: nss-pam-ldapd-users [at] lists.arthurdejong.org
- Subject: nss-pam-ldapd authorization only on rhel6
- Date: Sun, 24 Jul 2011 01:16:57 -0400
Looking for a solution that will allow host access based on filter ( pam_authz_search ),
but still be able to resolve passwd map for users not allowed to login.
1) Do not want to use PAM as there might be access methods that are not pam-enabled
Tried below config to force /bin/false on user not having access to the host, but did not work
# Host Access
base passwd ou=passwd,dc=example,dc=com
filter passwd (objetclass=posixaccount)(accessattrib=1234)
# Other user passwd map records are visible but /bin/false
base passwd ou=passwd,dc=example,dc=com
map passwd loginshell "/bin/false"
2) If PAM is the only solution for this use-case, does anyone have a sample config
for RHEL6 to provide PAM Based Authorization Only ?
We use kerberos for authentication.

There is a huge difference between the timing and level of disclosure of the four Government-controlled NZX-listed companies – Air New Zealand, Genesis Energy, Meridian Energy and Mighty River Power – and other Crown entities.
The four listed companies have released detailed results for the June 2015 financial year but a number of the other Crown entities have yet to report and there has been a relatively low level of disclosure by those that have reported.
Air New Zealand and Meridian Energy have published their full annual reports but it will be late October – or even November – before some of the non-listed Crown entities release their full financial statements.
Even the Treasury's Commercial Operations Group, which monitors Government investment in companies and entities, seems to have lost interest in its non-listed organisations.
The Commercial Operations Group website contains a large amount of information on these Crown companies and entities, including annual reports, but it stopped providing most of these reports after the June 2013 year.
The website provides links to a number of media releases covering the June 2015 year results but most of these commentaries are brief.
The quality and timing of the profit announcements of the four NZX-listed Government companies clearly indicate that taxpayers have much more transparency in relation to these companies compared with non-listed Crown entities.
The accompanying table outlines the net profit after tax of 12 high-profile, non-financial Crown organisations.
Housing New Zealand Corporation, New Zealand Lotteries Commission and Radio New Zealand have yet to report while Solid Energy is in voluntary administration.
The most profitable non-listed, non-financial Crown entities are Housing New Zealand, New Zealand Lotteries, New Zealand Post – through its 100 per cent owned subsidiary Kiwibank – and Transpower.
Housing New Zealand owns or manages 68,000 houses with a total value in excess of $18 billion.
The company has a target to provide 2000 new homes in the 18 months ended December 2015. It has two major development projects in Auckland – Hobsonville Point and a major regeneration project in Tamaki in partnership with the Tamaki Regeneration Company.
Although Housing NZ provides accommodation for more than 193,000 individuals it could have been more proactive in addressing the country's housing shortage. It has more than $18 billion of assets but only $1.3 billion of debt while it paid income tax of $87 million and a $90 million dividend to the Crown in the June 2014 year.
Housing NZ has had balance sheet capacity to help alleviate Auckland's housing problems but a conservative financial approach and large dividend payment to the Crown have reduced its capabilities in this area.
New Zealand Lotteries Commission is an incredibly profitable organisation that generated a pre-tax profit of $226.2 million for the June 2014 year (the commission doesn't pay any tax). The average punter receives only 49c in prizes for every $1 spent on games whereas the average sports better receives 87c back for every $1 spent at the TAB.
However, the Lotteries Commission's positive point is that its full pre-tax profit of $226.2 million was distributed to the NZ Lottery Grants Board, which allocates these funds to thousands of community groups, the arts and sporting organisations around New Zealand.
The Lotteries Commission's publicity machine is highly successful in promoting the occasional $1 million-plus winner but, in reality, Lotto's prize money is relatively meagre.
New Zealand Post reported an underlying net profit after tax of $128 million for the June 2015 year and chief executive Brian Roach was reported as saying: "Kiwibank performed well and contributed the vast majority of profits, off the back of net interest margin growth. The bank's strongest result yet rewarded years of investment by its parent company, the New Zealand Post Group, with its first ever dividend."
Kiwibank reported a net profit of $127 million for the June year and paid an inaugural dividend of $22 million. It generated an after-tax return of 0.73 per cent on total average assets whereas Heartland Bank, a fully-owned subsidiary of the NZX-listed Heartland New Zealand, produced a 1.58 per cent return on average total assets for the same period.
This suggests that Kiwibank has further scope to increase its profitability and pay a higher dividend to New Zealand Post.
Transpower, which owns and operates the national grid, is the Crown's second most important source of dividends after NZX-listed Meridian Energy. The company reported a net operating profit after tax of $194.6 million for the June 2014 year compared with $183.9 million for the previous year.
It paid a $188 million dividend to the Crown for the June 2015 year compared with $151 million in 2013/14.
Chairman Mark Verbiest was quoted as saying that the "reliability on the grid was the best performance achieved in the last 10 years and the grid managed well through a number of extreme weather events throughout the year".
However, he went on to warn that a regulatory reset, which started on April 1, 2015, is "likely to result in our financial performance in 2015/16 being lower than 2014/15".
This statement highlights the huge conflicts faced by the Crown as it effectively regulates Transpower while also receiving a huge dividend from the national grid operator.
TVNZ reported a net profit after tax of $28.1 million for the June 2015 year compared with $18.1 million in 2013/14, although the latter was adversely impacted by impairment charges in relation to two investments – Igloo and Hybrid Television Services.
TVNZ has declared a dividend of $8.3 million for the June 2015 year while no dividend was paid for the 2013/14 year because of costs associated with the refurbishment of its 100 Victoria St West headquarters.
The Crown's two basket cases are KiwiRail and Solid Energy.
KiwiRail reported a net loss of $166.5 million for the June 2015 year compared with a loss of $248 million for the previous year. According to the company's brief press release, the net loss "reflects the impairment of KiwiRail's rail assets. As the rail network does not generate sufficient cash flows to cover the level of required investment, a large proportion of the accounting value must be written off each year".
The company's freight revenue declined from $462 million to $433.7 million in the latest year because of the downturn in commodity markets, particularly milk, timber and coal.
KiwiRail's performance has been extremely disappointing, particularly as the railway sector is experiencing a renaissance in many developed countries.
It would be great to see a political party put a strong emphasis on developing a viable strategy for the country's rail operator.
Solid Energy was placed in voluntary administration early last month and a meeting of creditors on Thursday will determine its future.
The administrators have recommended a Deed of Company Arrangement whereby trade creditors and employees will receive 100c in the dollar and the banks and bondholders are expected to receive 35c to 40c in the dollar.
This is a better-than-anticipated outcome and creditors are expected to vote in favour of the wind-up of Solid Energy at next week's meeting. This will confirm that the Crown's equity holding in the coal company is worth nothing.

I'm feeling worse this morning than I did at the end of yesterday's bike ride. I'm hoping that it's just the reaction from being slumped over handlebars for over eight hours this weekend combined with not sleeping well last night. I don't how people do week-long rides like BRAG or RAGBRAI, but I may have to find out soon because of my plans to do RAGBRAI in July, as well as a week-long ride in Vermont in August, come to fruition. Of course with my history something will occur and I won't be able to participate on either ride.
I'm not too concerned with the ride in Germany given that I shouldn't be in the saddle for a long time nor exerting myself greatly.
Saturday: Jackson Brevet
I arose very early on Saturday morning and drove the bicycle for an hour to Braselton for Jackson Brevet for a 7:30 wheels-down start. The weather forecasted was better than it was the day before, though it turned out to be a hotter day in the saddle than I had anticipated.
My ride was to be, and thankfully was, 64 miles long. I started with a coworker who, even with some mechanical setbacks rode 100 miles; I cheerfully peeled off from him at the split. The ride was well-organized and to my astonishment well-attended by female riders.
I didn't feel as if I were having my best day in the saddle, but managed to finish in what I would consider to be a reasonable amount of time for a ride of that length. Not that the heat would've allowed me to, but I didn't want to push myself too much because I assumed I'd be riding another 50+ mile day on Sunday.
Hot and tired, with absolutely no hunger for the post-ride meal offered, I hopped back into the M6 after the ride and returned home. There I took a good shower and nap, before heading out for an early dinner and some shopping at Performance Bikes and REI.
Sunday: Hello BRAG
Arising early again on Sunday morning I kept an eye on the weather radar and clock all morning, calculating at what time I should leave the ITP Estate in order to meet the BRAG riders near Candler Park; that time was 8:00am.
From East Atlanta I rode to Freedom Parkway where I encountered the first group of license-plate-clad cycles and made a u-turn in order to ride with them. From what I see on the map I joined in somewhere around mile 12 of their 68-mile day which started in Brookhaven. When you add in the distance from the ITP Estate to where I met them, my total riding for the day was 59 miles.
For me yesterday's ride was self-supported, eschewing the three BRAG rest stops along my route (I hadn't paid, so I wasn't entitled to use their supplies). On me from the start I had some snacks that I had squirreled away during Jackson Brevet, as well as two bottles filled with Poweraid on the bike. Just before the third BRAG rest stop I pulled into a convenience store and bought a Slim-Jim, miraculously their last banana, a bottle of Poweraid in order to refill mine, and a bottle of water that I shoved into a jersey pocket for later consumption.
After passing by the rest stop before Stone Mountain I bye-and-large rode solo. Every once in awhile I would encounter a pack ahead of me, or get passed by superior riders, but I covered many miles blissfully alone. Physically I felt much better in the saddle than I did on Saturday, though inexplicably it appears that I rode the 59 miles slower than I did the 64 miles the day before.
The only "mishaps" of my day were getting stuck for a few minutes behind some cars that were stopped while a dog owner retrieved his dog, and being told that I was #1 by a passing SUV who felt it was cool to honk at me while I was riding no-handed as I tried to consume a power bar that I had stuffed in a rear pocket.
At the end of the ride ITP-Reader Barb and Allan set up their BRAG Cafe and served up many hamburgers and hot dogs to people, who unlike me, were planning on getting up and doing it all again today. I envy them more knowing how shitty I feel this morning even after sleeping (however poorly) in my own bed for the past two nights.
Barb and Allan kindly shuttled me back to East Atlanta, where I proceeded to shower and fall asleep very early. I even managed to sleep through the phone ringing at some point in the night (9:45pm according to my mother's voice message), that's how tired I was. Of course at some point in the wee hours of the morning I woke up and then had fitful sleep from then until I had to get up for work.
Recovery Ride Tonight?
That's a big "maybe" right now. I'll be doing a rain dance all day in hopes that I do not have to make a decision based solely on my health.
If I am so fortunate to see rain tonight I will be returning to Performance Bikes to return the shorts I bought there on Saturday because my fat ass doesn't fit into them. This is too bad for me because they were going to be the pairs of shorts that I wore on my bike ride in Germany. Perhaps they will have a larger size… Ugh.
Hope that you had a fantastic weekend.

Hey, everyone! My name is Sara. I am a senior at Virginia Tech, and I am double majoring in international studies and Spanish. I may be slightly obsessed with fashion and have been ever since I yelled at my mom for not letting me pick out my own clothes at the age of four years old. I'm extremely excited to start my last semester at Virginia Tech writing for CollegeFashionista and have an outlet to showcase some awesome peeps.
My favorite part about fashion is the ability to make it completely your own. It's truly a way to express yourself when you really don't have the words to do so. I love being able to combine pieces or looks that I find and switch it up a bit to fit my wardrobe. I think the idea of the endless possibilities is what excites me about fashion. The idea that nothing is set in stone and your style is completely your own.
I'm the type of person that finds random pieces from online shops or little boutiques and tries to make something work from it. I love knowing that something I have is unique and may stand out. For this look, I am wearing my ultimate favorite jean jacket that I found in Charleston, South Carolina at this boutique called Shailow (I swear it was fate). The details on the back are my favorite part. I paired it with a simple black T-shirt and black AG skinny jeans. I finished the look with a double black belt from Urban Outfitters and black booties.
Glad I got to show you one of my looks!

Unlike Turku and London, the city of Brussels has kept its trams running continuously since 1869. However, the future of one particular line, number 55, has become uncertain.
Route 55 on the Brussels tramway is scheduled for replacement by a new metro line (M3) which will connect the north and south of the city. M3 is intended to complement four existing metro lines and create efficient transport links. With costs estimated at 2.3 billion euros, the construction of the M3 is arguably one of the biggest transport projects in Brussels.
Since the 1960s, route 55 has connected working class neighborhoods and it is daily used by diverse groups of people. Many of those people are critical of the new metro, whereas others do not mind putting rails under the ground. Filmmaker Sonia Ringoot walked along the tramline and talked about its uses. Finding out that people did not know the details of the M3 project, Sonia organized a public meeting where people could discuss the points at stake. Which is better: to travel by tram or by metro?

The PGA Championship is poised to tee off, and if you want to play a golf course designed by a winner of the major championship that sports the game's strongest field, Myrtle Beach is the place for your next trip.
The Grand Strand is home to eight courses designed by PGA Championship winners and here is your list by architect/champion:
Raymond Floyd, who won the PGA in 1969 and 1982, co-designed Arrowhead Country Club, a 27-hole facility that features several holes that play along the Intracoastal Waterway. While those waterway views attract all the attention, Arrowhead, located less than 10 miles from the airport, is best known for the consistent quality of its conditions.
Davis Love III's playing career was headlined by his 1997 PGA triumph, and his most acclaimed design effort is his namesake course at Barefoot Resort. The Love Course is ranked among the nation's top 100 public layouts by Golf Magazine, and it's one of Myrtle Beach's most popular courses, led by holes four through six, which play through the faux ruins of an old plantation home.
Golf's greatest champion and four-time PGA champion, Jack Nicklaus, designed a pair of popular Myrtle Beach courses – Pawleys Plantation and Long Bay Club. Pawleys is on the short list of the area's prettiest layouts, highlighted by six holes on the back nine playing along a stunning saltwater marsh, including the unforgettable par 3 13th. Long Bay is one of the area's most underrated courses and it includes three holes – 10, 13 and 18 – that have been ranked among Myrtle Beach's top 100. Any golf trip that includes this duo is a good one.
Two-time PGA Championship winner Larry Nelson helped design one of Myrtle Beach's hidden gems, the Avocet Course at Wild Wing Plantation. Avocet is home to the drivable par 4 14th hole (265 yards from the white tees) and provides an enjoyable test throughout the round. When its sister courses closed, Avocet's notoriety declined but the four-star layout is better than ever. (top photo)
Among Gary Player's nine major championships are PGA triumphs in 1962 and 1972. The Black Knight's lone Myrtle Beach design, Blackmoor Golf Club, continues to be one of the area's most value-centric layouts, providing players a varied challenge and, arguably, the Grand Strand's most unforgettable risk-reward decision. The par 4 eighth hole was designed to play as a dogleg right, but Player cut a 30-yard wide chute through the trees, allowing the daring to play it as a dangerous but drivable hole. (Blackmoor 18th Hole pictured right)
TPC Myrtle Beach, one of the area's premier layouts, was designed by 1977 PGA Championship winner Lanny Wadkins. TPC was created with the idea of hosting high level competitive events and it has fulfilled that mission. The course has hosted a Senior Tour Championship, the NCAA men's golf tournament, and the annual Dustin Johnson World Junior Golf Championship, living up to and even exceeding the lofty expectations golfers have for a TPC brand layout.

They say the definition of madness is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result – yet many of us do this unconsciously in our relationships.
We keep having the same old arguments, repeating the same old patterns that deprive us from the closeness, support and respect we deserve in our relationship.
When we're stuck responding to our partner in the same old unhelpful ways we don't resolve our issues, we just grow further and further apart over time. We criticise, shut down, we get defensive, we become controlling or we quietly seethe and do nothing.
All you want is to be heard, to be understood and to feel like a priority to your partner. Well, the truth is that that's what your partner wants too!
Seeing a Counsellor or a Life Coach can help you understand how you get caught up in destructive relationship patterns with your partner and you can learn effective tools and new ways of relating to each other and being with each other that bring you closer. It's practical, it's effective and if you can relate to any of the above patterns of communication, it's one of the most worthwhile investments you can make in your relationship and your own personal growth

Greenville in Greenville County, South Carolina — The American South (South Atlantic)
Max Heller Legacy Plaza
It was 1919 and Greenville, South Carolina had emerged from World War I with a surge of patriotism and community spirit. Main Street was a center of activity and a building boom brought the Woodside Building, the Chamber of Commerce Building and the Poinsett Hotel to the downtown. The textile mills that circled the city were operating at full speed. It was an exciting time.
[Middle Panel]:
In Vienna, Austria, on May 28, 1919, Max Heller was born to Israel and Leah Heller. In the photo, Max's sister Paula is on the left, his mother Leah in the center and Max on the right. Max grew up with a firm family foundation and a strong work ethic which carried him forward with vision and insight.
[Bottom Panel]:
After graduating from high school, he went to work in the wholesale business and was soon promoted to foreman and then buyer. This determination and strength of character would lead him to become, in later life, one of the driving forces in the revitalization of Greenville, South Carolina.
In 1938 Wehrmacht troops entered Austria to enforce the Anschluss of annexation of Austria and Nazi Germany. The stories of persecution, imprisonment and murder became very real for the Jewish community. Jewish stores were plundered, businesses confiscated and Jews in Vienna began to fear for their lives. Israel Heller lost his business and Max lost his job.
[Top Panel 2]:
"We couldn't accept the stories that people were being persecuted and killed just because they were Jews." -- Max Heller
[Bottom Panel 1]:
A year earlier, Max had gone out dancing and met Mary Mills and her four young friends from Greenville, South Carolina who were on a European tour. Mary gave Max her address in Greenville.
[Bottom Panel 2]:
Events overseas and the threat of American involvement in a second world war were having an effect on everyone in Greenville. Increasing efforts were made to support the allies in Europe and aggressive preparations began for the defense of American soil.
Tensions mounted in Austria. Swastikas adorned every building, every uniform, and every flag. Grocery stores were plundered; Jewish-owned buildings were burned. Park benches core signs saying "No Jews Allowed". It was time for Max Heller and his family to leave the country.
[Top Panel 2]:
Max wrote to his friend Mary Mills asking her if she could arrange for a sponsor in Greenville. She contacted Shepard Saltzman, owner of Piedmont Shirt Factory, who agreed to sponsor Max and his sister Paula.
[Bottom Panel 1]:
Soon Max and Paula were on their way to Paris and then to America on the Ile de France. After a short visit in Newark with his mother's sister, Max headed to Greenville.
[Bottom Panel 2]:
Greenville was continuing to gear up for support of the war in Europe. Orders flooded into local textile mills and soon they were operating eighty hours a week. Relief packages and money were collected by the local Red Cross and sent to the allies in Britain and France. Volunteers were enlisted to make bandages and garments to be sent overseas.
When Max's train arrived in Greenville, he was met at the train station by Shepard Saltzman, Mary Mills and several of her companions from the Vienna trip and Rabbi Mazure. Max only had $1.60 in his pocket.
[Bottom Panel 1]:
Mr. Saltzman invited Max to lunch but Max insisted on paying...five cents for a cup of soup. Before the day was out Max was at work at Piedmont Shirt Factory and a new career had begun.
[Bottom Panel 2]:
A greater step toward involvement in World War II for Greenville County residents came when Congress passed the first peacetime draft in American history on September 16, 1940. Not waiting for the draft, hundreds volunteered for the Army, Navy and Marine Corps. The War Department selected Greenville, SC as the site for a new Army airfield to support the buildup for the War. In June 1942 the Greenville Army Base was officially activated as a twin-engine bomber training base for replacement aircrews, being assigned to the III Bomber Command of Third Air Force.
When Max Heller was 18, he met a young girl named Trude Schonthal at a summer resort and fell in live with her. He told her that summer that someday they would be married.
When Austria fell to Nazi Germany, Trude's family tried to get visas to the United States but no more were available. Her father escaped to Belgium and after hiding in the woods for five weeks, Trude and her mother finally crossed into Belgium. Trude and her mother eventually sailed to New York and later were joined by her father. In the summer of 1941 Max went to New York to visit Trude for the first time since they parted in Vienna.
[Bottom Panel]:
Mr. Saltzman, Max's employer, later brought Max's family over to the United States and Trude's family moved down to Greenville. The two families were united and Max and Trude were married in August of 1942. Mr. Saltzman gave both fathers jobs in his shirt factory.
During World War II rationing and air raid drills became a way of life in Greenville. Community drives for relied, the purchase of war bonds and the collection of scrap metal became routine in wartime Greenville. textile mills, local utilities and the municipal airport employed extra security guards to prevent sabotage. The Nineteenth Army Air Force Glider Pilot Training Detachment was headquartered at Furman University and received flight training at the municipal airport.
Max Heller began working in the Piedmont Shirt Factory sweeping floors and carrying shirt boxes. He worked 70 to 80 hours a week and there was no overtime pay. His first paycheck was for $10 with a dime taken out for Social Security.
[Bottom Two Panels]:
One day a co-worker told him to report to the front office because a judge wanted to see him. Max was terrified because he thought they were going to send him back to Austria. The man who greeted him was Judge John Plyler, the new president of Furman University, and he offered to help Max improve his English.
When the foreman of the shipping department left the company, Max asked for the job and got it. Soon he was made internal sales manager, and by the time he was 26 he was General Manager of the company.
By 1945 Max had become vice president of Piedmont Shirt Company. The company had offices in the Empire State Building in New york and opened a new plant in Walterboro, SC to make Wing shirts.
[Middle Panel]:
Max had promised Shepard Saltzman that he would never leave his employ unless he established his own company. However, in 1945, not content to work in someone else's business forever, he started the Williamston Shirt Company with two partners. The partnership was short-lived and in 1948 he sold his share and opened the Maxon Shirt Company in Greenville with sixteen employees. The business prospered under his energetic leadership and by 1962, the company had 700 employees.
[Bottom Panel]:
By this time the Hellers had three children -- Francie, Susan and Steven. They were active members of Congregation Beth Israel, where Max served as president of the synagogue. At the end of the War, Max and Trudie searched for displaced members of their families in Europe but located only two cousins. All of the others had died at the hands of the Nazis.
Greenville emerged from World War II as a prosperous, growing community. The textile industry was flourishing. The Memorial Auditorium was built downtown in 1959 and a new Textile Hall opened on the newly completed US 29 Bypass in 1964.
[Middle and Bottom Two Panels]:
The opening of the Greenville-Spartanburg Airport and Greenville Technical College in 1962 added valuable resources to the area.
"I was never interested in being the richest man in the cemetery." -- Max Heller
Max decided that he wanted to devote his time to community service, so he sold his business in 1962 but by contract remained with the company for five more years, retiring officially in 1968. One of the community projects of which Max is so proud involves a citizens' group concerned about youthful offenders. Their work resulted in a law being passed in the legislature establishing a youthful offender's camp in Greenville County. Max has always been proud of this accomplishment.
Max Heller was elected to the Greenville City Council in 1968, where he focused his attention on improving substandard housing and making housing affordable for all.
In 1971, he was elected mayor of Greenville. From the beginning his vision was to bring people together and to create a city government for everyone. He desegregated all departments and commissions in city government and, working with the Police chief Harold Jennings, made [sure] certain police department practices were color-blind. The people of Greenville embraced Max's vision and the city was integrated in a peaceful fashion.
[Middle Panel]:
Greenville's first African American to serve on City Council was elected in 1977. The photo on the left shows the Council from 1977 to 1979. Back row, from left to right, Thomas C. Gower, Rev. Rayfield Medcalf, Harry B. Luthi, Jesse L. Helms; front row, James H. Simkins, Max M. Heller, and Patricia C. Haskell.
[Bottom Panel]:
The key to Mayor Heller's success was his love for people. Very little happened in City Hall that didn't involve citizen input. He became a driving force for environmental protection, beautification, slum clearance, economic rejuvenation, downtown revitalization and public-private partnerships.
Max Heller continued to be concerned for youthful and first-time offenders. In an attempt to control youth violence in Greenville, Max formed a Youth Advisory Committee and appointed as chair a young man who was president of his high school student body -- Knox White who in 1995 became mayor of Greenville. The committee consulted with the city and police officers to bring the youth perspective to government especially relating to recreation and youth violence.
[Middle Panel 1]:
When Duke Power Company informed the city that it could no longer operate the municipal bus system, Max worked to create the Greenville Transit Authority. He asked Thomas Barton, president of Greenville Technical college to train bus drivers and local churches volunteered the use of buses to cover the transition.
[Middle Panel 2]:
"We must cherish our samenesses because we have many more samenesses than we do differences...and our main sameness is they we are all God's children." -- Max Heller
[Bottom Panel]:
In 1975, in a further attempt to bring people together and foster a more cohesive city, Max created the Mayor's Prayer Breakfast, open to all denominations. Even though there was some opposition, most religious leaders supported the breakfast.
The late 1950s and early 1960s saw the decline of downtown Greenville as large outlaying shopping centers were built. Store closed and were boarded up. streets became deserted. At the first meeting of the new Downtown Greenville Association, Charles Daniel told the members that the city was "unclean and neither attractive nor competitive with comparable progressive cities."
In an effort to renew downtown, Charles Daniel broke ground for his new headquarters on North Main Street in 1964. When completed in 1967, it was the tallest building in South Carolina. At the same time the Greenville News-Piedmont announced plans to build its new headquarters on South Main Street.
[Bottom Panel 1]:
Under Max Heller's leadership, the revitalization of downtown became a priority in the 1970s. With the help of leaders like Buck Mickel, C. Thomas Wyche, and Alester G. Furman, Jr., a Total Development Plan was initiated by the Chamber of Commerce in 1976. The site of the Woman's College was renamed Heritage Green and there a new county library, the Charles E. Daniel Theatre, and the Greenville County Museum of Art were built.
[Bottom Panel 2]:
Max Heller's vision of an attractive, inviting, prosperous downtown would eventually become a reality through continued efforts by Mayors William D. Workman, Jr. and Knox White. Today, Greenville's downtown is a showplace and a national model for downtown redevelopment.
Max Heller's vision really began to take shape in late 1978 when the City of Greenville received a federal Urban Development Action Grant for $7.4 million, one of the first in the nation. With these funds the city began to acquire land on North Main Street and through the active involvement of Buck Mickel and C. Thomas Wyche, a new hotel and convention center was planned.
[Middle Panel]:
The Hyatt hotel chain agreed to build the 330-room Regency Hotel, and the city agreed to build a convention center, an atrium and five-story office building. The convention center was named for Max Heller. This public-private partnership began a new era in the life of Greenville's downtown, bringing new business and commerce to Main Street.
[Bottom Panel]:
The success of the Hyatt Regency was the impetus for the construction of two large office buildings across Church Street by U.S. Shelter. Revenue sharing funds paid for sidewalks and landscaping. The Coffee street Mall, now Piazza Bergamo, was constructed, and the old Meyers-Arnold Building was transformed into a center for the sale of arts and crafts.
Economic change came swiftly to Greenville in the 1970s and 1980s as the textile industry faced new challenges -- environmental controls, worldwide inflation, and foreign imports. Local mills merged into larger companies and closures began.
Max Heller's second term as mayor ended in 1979 and he decided to run for Congress from the Fourth District. He won the Democratic primary but was defeated in the general election.
[Bottom Two Panels]:
Max was asked by Governor Richard W. Riley to serve as chair of the South Carolina State Development Board and for the next five years he worked with state and local officials to improve the state's economic climate. Max was convinced that diversification was essential and during his term more than 65,000 jobs were created. He created the South Carolina Research Authority and working closely with Governor Riley a number of major industries were recruited to the state, including Michelin North America, Union Camp and Digital Computer. For the first time, annual industrial recruitment reached the $1 billion mark.
In the spring of 1987, a blue ribbon task force was formed by the Greater Greenville Chamber of Commerce and led by Max Heller, to address the question, "What do we want to be in the year 2005?" The result of their deliberations was a document called "Vision 2005: Greenville, the Journey Forward." This vision called for ambitious goals, including a new performing arts center, a year-round governor's school for the arts, a research park, an Upstate coliseum, and a University for Greenville, among others.
Max Heller has always been a man of the people. His ability to inspire and foster collaboration among community leaders as well as residents is the foundation of his success. Max's visionary leadership and his lifetime of service to the community led to numerous awards and honors.
He received the Man of the Year Award from the National Council of Jewish Women in 1970. He also received the Distinguished Service Award from the Greater Greenville Ministerial Alliance, the Human Relations Award from the Greenville Human Relations Commission and the Whitney Young Humanitarian Award from the Greenville Urban League. The Greenville Chamber of Commerce named its prestigious neighborhood improvement award after Max.
[Bottom Panel]:
In 1975, Furman University awarded him an honorary Doctor of Laws degree and in 1998 he received the Bell Tower Award for his exceptional achievements and service to the school. The University also named its award-winning student services program the Max and Trudie Heller Service Corps.
Max Heller...a true visionary and inspired leader. During his lifetime of service he met and worked with many regional, national and international leaders but his true passion always focused on the people and finding ways to bring them together. Max Heller survived the torments of war and religious persecution to become a successful businessman who decided that, rather than retire and enjoy the "fruits of his labors", he would devote himself to serving mankind through every means available to him.

1. Short Biography and Max and Trudie Heller
On March 11, 1938 Max M. Heller left work and witnessed the Nazi take-over of Austria. Jewish synagogues and Jewish property were being vandalized and burned.
After Max lost his job and his family were forced to sell their silverware and jewelry to survive, Max and other family members were sponsored to come to the U.S. by Shepherd Saltzman, a Jewish man who owned Piedmont Shirt company in Greenville, SC.
Leaving his Nazi-occupied homeland in 1938, Max came to Greenville to work as a stock boy at Piedmont Shirt Co. Trude and her family members fled to Belgium, then Holland, and family on to England, and them Greenville, SC.
Max founded Maxon Shirt Company in 1948 and retired in 1969, devoting his time to public service. In 1971, after two years on the Greenville City Council, he was elected and served two consecutive terms as mayor of Greenville. He was a candidate for the United States House of Representatives in 1978.
A former chair of the State Development Board, he has played a leadership role in civic and community organizations. Furman awarded him an honorary Doctor of Laws degree in 1975.
Max and his wife, Trude, who received an honorary degree from Furman in 1999, have 3 children, 10 grand-children, and 5 great-grandchildren. (Source: www.columbiaholocausteducation.org/.)

2. Agents of Change: Max Heller
Max Heller Former mayor of Greenville, 1971–1979
Field of Impact Downtown Greenville
In his words: "I could not go into some parks because I was Jewish. I could not get certain jobs because I was Jewish. If I was sick, I had to see a Jewish doctor. I saw people beaten because they were Jewish. And then here I come to the land of the free. I'm accepted with open arms. How could I not be grateful?"
Ninety years old and suffering bouts of debilitating back pain, Max Heller still speaks his mind with vigor and conviction: "Take nothing for granted," he says. An Upstate legend credited with initiating downtown Greenville's revitalization thirty years ago, Heller is anything but complacent. And he has a message for those who want to see the city continue to thrive in the future—and shine even more brightly.
"Take care of the trees, plant the flowers," he says. "Take nothing for granted."
If Greenville's appealing downtown continues to make a strong impression on both visitor and long-time resident alike, it's because an Austrian Jew fled Nazi genocide in 1938, arrived in Greenville, worked as a stockboy at Piedmont Shirt Company, founded his own business in 1948 (Maxon Shirt Company), served two years on Greenville City Council, and in 1971 won election to the first of two terms as mayor of Greenville.
If Greenville sparkles, it's because Max Heller made his home among us. "He pointed the way," says current Greenville mayor Knox White.
Heller became mayor at a time when Greenville's Main Street was "pretty well shuttered-up, really devastated," says White. Cars drove through downtown, quickly, not stopping. Heller had an idea that was "unusual for the time," says White. He would invite an urban planner to redesign downtown. He would narrow the lanes to slow traffic, ask restaurants to put tables on the sidewalk, plant trees and flowers.
He would make Greenville's center a pedestrian-friendly, European-style downtown. "Where I grew up, there were flowers and trees everywhere," says Heller. "There was always natural beauty. I told the architect for downtown, 'Give me that, give me a people place.'"
It was easier said than done. Many resisted change, as people do, says Heller. "There was a petition against us." But he persevered.
An early success for Heller was garnering the Hyatt Hotel downtown, spurring other positive developments. Over thirty years there were advances and retreats, but the long arc of the years bent toward progress.
Three decades later: "I look at downtown with joy," he says, giving credit to business leaders of the time, including Buck Mickel, Tommy Wyche, and Allester G. Furman. He also credits Mayor White and other city leaders, past and present, with maintaining the momentum, extending downtown revitalization to encompass the West End.
Heller left Austria in 1938, as Jewish synagogues and property were being burned and vandalized. Memories of Nazi oppression gave Heller his strong sense of social justice. Asked what he's most proud of, it's not downtown, it's the social progress that has been made, with people of all races and faiths growing more tolerant of each other.
It was with immense pride that Heller saw the unveiling of a statue of himself downtown on his ninetieth birthday last May. The statue and the North Main Street plaza that houses it -— appropriately named Legacy Park -— draws parallels between Heller's life and downtown's growth, says Ken Betsch, managing principal of Betsch Associates, whose firm designed the square. And the larger-than-life Heller, his head inclined and right arm extended, seems to be making a point: perhaps something about carrying on the legacy of the city's forward-looking leaders. —Paul Hyde (Source: G: The Magazine of Greenville, January 2010.)

3. Greenville Honors Contributions of Former Mayor Max Heller with Statue on Main Street
GSA Business
by James T. Hammond
May 29, 2009
The City of Greenville marked with a statue on Main Street the life and leadership of Max Heller, an Austrian Jewish refugee who fled Nazi genocide in 1938 to become an Upstate icon of economic renewal.
Unveiled on his 90th birthday Thursday, the bronze, larger-than-life casting depicts a middle-age Heller, his feet appearing to stride forward, and his right arm extended, his finger pointing. At right, Heller's great grandson, Charlie Moses, poses with the new monument.
The sculptor is Thomas J. Durham, a graduate of the College of Charleston and resident of Philadelphia. The monument was funded by "Friends of Max on Main," comprising about 140 private and corporate donors.
Heller's public life started with his election to city council in 1968. He focused on improving substandard housing and expanding affordable housing. He was elected mayor of Greenville in 1971. A major thrust of his work as mayor was to desegregate all departments and commissions of city government, and to erase differences in treatment between the races by police.
He also emphasized improvements in the treatment of youthful and first-time offenders. He formed a Youth Advisory Committee and appointed Knox White – the current mayor of Greenville – to chair the panel.
In 1975, he started the Mayor's Prayer Breakfast, open to people of all faiths. Despite some opposition, most religious leaders support the outreach.
Heller's major endeavor as mayor was to reverse the decay of Greenville's core. Most retail stores had abandoned Main Street for the suburbs. His European heritage told him a city without a heart would rot from within. With the backing of leaders including Buck Mickel, Tommy Wyche and Allester G. Furman Jr., he set out to attract a major anchor to start the redevelopment of Main Street.
In 1978, the city received a federal Urban Development Action Grant for $7.4 million, which was used to buy land on North Main Street. On that site at College and Main, a new hotel and convention center was built. Today, it is a Hyatt Hotel, and remains a strong centerpiece of North Main Street's redevelopment.
When Richard W. Riley was elected governor in 1978, he asked his friend Max Heller to serve as chairman of the State Development Board, then the state's chief instrument of economic development. Heller served for five years, and with Riley brought new businesses to South Carolina that ultimately created 65,000 jobs. He created the South Carolina Research Authority, and helped recruit Michelin North America, Union Camp and Digital Computer. During Heller's tenure as the state's chief industrial recruiter, annual new investment reached $1 billion for the first time.
At the unveiling of Heller's statue, Riley described his appointment of Heller to the Development Board as "the most important appointment I made as governor."
Heller performed the service to South Carolina with no salary, Riley said.
Minor Mickel Shaw, whose father, the late Buck Mickel, worked on many projects with Heller, said they took on tough projects in the face of great obstacles.
"They had a dream," Shaw said. "Many communities would have given up. But not Max and his SWAT team – Buck, Tommy and others."
Their approach, she said, was "to dream higher and work harder and always have the next big project on the drawing board."
Mayor Knox White said Legacy Park, the name of the Main Street location for the Heller statue, is appropriate description of Heller's life.
"It reminds us of the legacy he has passed along, a legacy of Greenville as an open and welcoming community," White said. "Little did he know how important that would be as we became an international city."

4. Jewish Settlers in the Upstate
Between 1880 and 1930, at a time when the Carolina upcountry was wielding the political power it had wrested from the lowcountry, Jewish populations in Spartanburg, Greenville, and Anderson more than quadrupled, thanks to an influx of eastern Europeans. Orthodox but beardless, Greenville's new Jews first held services in rented halls, then built Synagogue Beth Israel on Towne Street. Charles Zaglin, from Wilmington, North Carolina, became the community's shohet. Harris Bloom acted as religious lay leader and his hon Julius as cantor. Most of the newcomers opened stores or worked as tradesmen, repairing shows and watches. One family ran a barber shop, another a cigar factory. With the growth of a managerial sector in the textile industry, Greenville acquired a salaried class.
I'm a born again Jew, you have to remember that. I was born again in Greenville. Greenville became my home. The only thing I miss about Vienna was the music. That's the only thing, when I hear it. Yes, and the outdoor cafes. One reason you see those outdoor cafes [when I became mayor] I said, "We have to have outdoor cafes in Greenville." -- Max Heller (b. 1919, Vienna, Austria)
An unanticipated in-migration of Jews fleeing Hitler added dramatically to the Jewish communities of the Piedmont. Between 1937 and 1947, Greenville's Jewish population increased by more than 40 percent, from 183 to 260, while Spartanburg's jumped by 90 percent from 98 to 170. Max Heller, who would go on to become major of Greenville from 1971 to 1979, was one of these refugees. Heller fled Austria in 1938 as the Nazis were closing in and came to Greenville to work in a shirt factory. The woman he would marry, Trude Schonthal, narrowly escaped from Vienna with her mother after the Nazis occupied Austria. It was nine months until they heard from Trude's father and nine months more until they saw him again.

5. 1978 Congressional Election
A more damaging issue evolved from [Carol] Campbell's successful campaign for Congress in 1978 against Greenville major Max Heller, who as an eighteen-year-old Jewish youth in Austria managed to escape the Nazi occupation by immigrating to the United States. He settled in Greenville after reaching out to someone he had met who had been touring Europe. Heller moved over time from a floor sweeper to owner of a small manufacturing plant, became active in civic affairs, and served two terms as a progressive and popular mayor before running as the Democratic candidate for Congress against Campbell. In 1978 Heller had spearheaded the beginning of upscale development in a badly deteriorated downtown Greenville, an effort reflected in today's vibrant Main Street shops and eateries and the outstanding twenty-first-century Upcountry History Museum.
Campbell's campaign polled voters, asking of they would vote "for a candidate who was a Jew," "for a foreign-born Jew," and, then, a reported third question, "for a foreign-born Jew who didn't believe in the Lord Jesus Christ." Late in the campaign and after a meeting with Campbell's campaign manager, garage owner Don Sprouse got on the ballot as a petition candidate. He asserted on television that Heller, who had been leading in the polls, should not be elected to Congress because he was not a Christian and did not "believe Jesus Christ has come yet." Sprouse received 1,700 of the roughly 100,000 votes. Campbell defeated Heller by almost 6,000 votes. (Source: The Palmetto State: The Making of Modern South Carolina by Jack Bass and W. Scott Poole (2009), pg. 153.)

6. Max Heller: Community Servant
Furman University's annual Founders Day convocation celebrates our heritage and recognizes those who have helped enhance the Furman Experience and the Greenville community.
Max Heller is one of these people. His rise to prominence in Greenville parallels Furman's own emergence from a small sectarian college to an independent, nationally prominent liberal arts institution.
Heller's remarkable story is worth repeating. It begins in 1937 in Vienna, when the eighteen-year-old Austrian met five charming young women from Greenville who were touring Europe. Seven months later, when Nazi troops were taking over his homeland and terrorizing the Jews, Max wrote to one of the Greenville girls, Mary Mills, and asked her to help him escape to the United States. She eagerly agreed to sponsor Heller and his sister and reported that she also had found him a job.
Penniless and knowing little English, Max arrived in Greenville in August 1938 and began work an hour later as a stock boy sweeping floors in the Piedmont Shirt Company. The next day a coworker told him to report to the front office because "a judge wants to see you." Heller feared the worst. "When I heard that a judge wanted to see me I was terrified," he recalled. "I thought that he was going to send me back to Austria."
At the front office, Heller was greeted by Judge John Plyler. He was a "stately, handsome man" who extended his hand and welcomed the young immigrant to Greenville. He "offered to help me learn to speak English and told me that he had just been named president of Furman University."
At that moment, Heller remembered, "I knew I had found a home in Greenville. It was then that I learned the great lesson that a simple act of kindness can mean so very much."
It wasn't long before the enterprising young man had become vice president of the shirt company. In the meantime, Max's parents had also escaped Nazi oppression and had come to America, as had the lovely young woman who was to be his bride.
Trude and Max married in 1942. They lost ninety members of their families during the Holocaust, but in Greenville they quickly established a new life together. By 1948 Max had started a company of his own, Maxon Shirt Company, which grew into a major textile enterprise.
Max also became actively involved in his adopted community, and twenty years after founding his company, he sold it to devote himself full time to serving Greenville, his state, and his synagogue. During the two distinguished terms as mayor, he led the way in revitalizing downtown Greenville. He also served as president of the chamber of commerce and as chair of the state development board.
Through the years, Max and Trude, who has been a community leader in her own right, have been very involved with Furman. Max has been a longtime member of our advisory council and a special friend of the Collegiate Educational Service Corps, an organization that enrolls more than fifteen hundred students who serve as volunteers in some seventy-five social service agencies in Greenville County. "The Service Corps is what is so wonderful about Furman," Heller explains. "It embraces the community. Furman reaches out to people. It is inclusive."
In 1975 Furman awarded Max an honorary doctor of laws degree, and in 1984 Trude received the Mary Mildred Sullivan Award for noble and humanitarian service. In recent years they have established several scholarships at Furman, one of which is named for Mary Mills Roberson, the woman who helped Max escape to America.
Max and Trude exude a love of life, of people, and of giving to their community that deserves recognition and emulation. They are an inspiration to those of us lucky enough to have lived in this country all of our lives -- and perhaps take our good fortune for granted. "My wife and I," Max says, "had a terrible experience [under the Nazis] and you can come out of that two ways: bitter or more appreciative of life."
For those who believe it is better to light a candle than curse the darkness, Max Heller provides a bright model of a life well lived. We can all benefit from his outstanding example. (Source: The Bell Tower and Beyond: Reflections on Learning and Living by David E. Shi (2002), pgs 122-123.)

7. Max Heller has Never Stopped Giving
by Michelle and Michael Shain
May 24, 2009
Max on Main in Legacy Plaza will be dedicated at 4 p.m. Thursday, which happens to be Mayor Max Heller's 90th birthday. The physical address is 233 N. Main. It will represent our community's thank you to a man who has never stopped giving forward since he arrived in Greenville, South Carolina.
It started with a letter. She could have let the letter go unanswered but she didn't. That is not the Greenville way.
Mary Mills Roberson received a letter from young Max Heller, a man she met with four of her friends while they were in Vienna, Austria, on a European tour during the summer of 1937. Those other friends were Louise Jordan Earle, Elizabeth Lucas Marchant, Gee Gee Cogswell McCuen and Sallie Brown Clark Huguenin. They only met briefly and danced. In Max Heller's letter, he asked Mary Mills to help him escape to the United States of America in the wake of Hitler's terror in Austria.
Mary Mills found a way. She found a sponsor in Shep Saltzman, and Max Heller came to Greenville in August of 1938. His family and soon-to-be wife, Trude, soon followed. History will be forever changed with that one small act of kindness from a very young woman who felt called to help. The actions of Mary Mills embody the Greenville we all know and love, a place where people are willing to step up to serve others in need.
Max will tell you that many people helped him along the way, people like Judge John Plyler, president of Furman University, Buck Mickel and Tommy Wyche. No one does this work alone.
His leadership as mayor of Greenville was one of inclusion not exclusion. He walked the talk of diversity before it had a name. He had vision and was not afraid to stand up for it even in the face of public outcry. He has lived the American Dream.
Joe Webber of the city of Greenville has been standing watch over the statue of Max Heller since this past winter. Joe has worked for the city since before Max Heller was first mayor. He remembers Mayor Heller's dapper style of dressing and says that the artist, Tom Durham, got the statue right.
A volunteer steering committee has been working to help make this happen, too many to name. They have worked to create a public plaza that will be a gathering spot for everyone who wants to sit and watch the world go by. The plaza will include the history of the legacy of the honorable Mayor Max Heller.
This committee has worked in a public-private partnership with the city, private foundations, professionals, individuals, the county and with the help of the Community Foundation of Greenville. A special thank you goes yo Debbie Cooper of the Community Foundation of Greenville who has gone above and beyond to help us in our mission. As Max Heller will remind us, no one does this work alone.
As part of the Heller legacy, Max and Trude have taught their family what it means to give forward to the next generation. Heller's vision and determination have helped to create the magic that is our Main Street.
Other leaders have followed him and stood on his shoulders to continue that work. They too have stood watch over Main Street and helped make it stronger and more beautiful. It is now up to all of us to protect it and be good stewards of its future course.
It begs the question of what legacy will the next generation of leaders leave us? Who is the next Max Heller? It also illustrates that you do not have to be old to have wisdom and to change history. Who is the next Mary Mills?
Max Heller will now permanently stand watch over Main Street. Standing across from the Hyatt where the renaissance all began, the statue stands watch over a charming, two-lane, tree-lined, twinkle-light strung, people-filled Main Street that we all use to woo our families, friends and business associates.
We invite you to join us in this celebration. If you would like to make a donation to the Max on Main project you may make your checks payable to the Community Foundation of Greenville, Inc., 27 Cleveland St., Suite 101, Greenville, S.C. 29601.

DeSantis Scuffling
Happy Thursday! Remember Sam Bankman-Fried, wunderkind founder of the FTX cryptocurrency exchange who exploded last year into a plume of Ponzi scheme confetti?
A bunch of celebrities—Tom Brady, Larry David, Shaquille O'Neal—are now facing a class-action lawsuit alleging their FTX endorsements abetted fraud. But Taylor Swift reportedly dumped a $100 million deal after asking a pointed question about the legality of FTX's product: "Can you tell me that these are not unregistered securities?"
She knew SBF was trouble when he walked in.
Quick Hits: Today's Top Stories
- House Republicans on Wednesday released the "Limit, Save, Grow Act," which would raise the debt ceiling by $1.5 trillion or suspend it until March 2024—whichever comes first—cap discretionary spending for next year at fiscal year 2022 levels, and limit spending growth to no more than 1 percent per year. It would also claw back unspent COVID-19 relief, add work requirements for government benefits, and block student loan forgiveness. President Joe Biden has thus far spurned Republicans in debt ceiling negotiations, but McCarthy hopes passing this bill—far from a certainty—will put pressure on the White House to come to the table. Goldman Sachs economists now estimate, based on tax receipts, that the U.S. will hit the debt ceiling by early June, rather than August as previously projected.
- The Department of Defense announced a new $325 million security assistance package for Ukraine on Wednesday, tapping into previously approved congressional aid as Ukrainian troops prepare for an expected spring offensive. The package will include ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, artillery rounds, anti-tank mines, and other munitions and equipment.
- The Supreme Court on Wednesday extended its stay to Friday on a Texas judge's ruling that ordered the Food and Drug Administration to withdraw its approval of mifepristone, a drug used in pill abortions. The order, written by Justice Samuel Alito, doesn't offer judgment on the case's merits.
- Three people—including two teen brothers—have been arrested and charged as adults with reckless murder for a shooting at a sweet 16 party in a Dadeville, Alabama, dance studio this weekend that killed four people and injured 32 others. Prosecutors did not release details about the weapons used or motive.
- Outside actors have reportedly begun offering support to both parties in the ongoing conflict between Sudan's military and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group, risking regional escalation of the fighting—which has continued despite multiple ceasefire agreements. The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that Egypt has sent warplanes to back the military—led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan—while at least one plane from Libyan militia leader Khalifa Haftar has helped carry supplies for the RSF, led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo. The World Health Organization said at least 296 people—including three World Food Program workers—have been killed and more than 3,000 injured since fighting broke out Saturday.
- Iranian officials have reportedly sent thousands of texts to business owners warning they will be shut down if female employees don't wear head coverings—beginning implementation of a promised crackdown on violations of the country's religious dress code.
Is DeSantis Losing His Mojo?
He's down in the polls. He's losing donors and endorsements. He's in an extended spat with one of his state's largest private employers. This isn't exactly the runway from which Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis hoped to launch his much-anticipated presidential campaign. Just a few short months ago—after he won reelection by 19 points while Donald Trump was being blamed for the GOP's disappointing midterms—DeSantis seemed almost destined to supplant his former mentor as the Republican Party's standard bearer. Now, a rough few weeks has some commentators wondering if he's the second coming of Scott Walker.

Birthday: June 13, 1752 (Gemini)
Born In: King's Lynn, England
Frances Burney was an English novelist, diarist and playwright best known for her novel 'Evelina'. One of the most popular novelists of the late 18th century, she is credited to have played an instrumental role in the development of the novel of manners. All of her novels explore the lives of English aristocrats, based on her keen observations of how the society of her era operated. As one of the six children of the music historian, composer and musician, Dr. Charles Burney, she was considered the least promising among the siblings. Losing her mother at a young age was a blow that affected her emotionally throughout life. As a young girl she sought solace in reading and soon began to write as well. However, the English society of her era was not supportive of female writers and thus she published her first novel 'Evelina' anonymously. The book became very popular and it led to the revelation of her authorship. She wrote three other novels which also became very popular. Following her death, her meticulously written diaries were discovered and published posthumously to much critical acclaim. Her writings are still valued for her outlook on the social lives and struggles of women of her time and her candid portrayal of the 18th century English society.
