Here's What Members Of Malta's LGBT+ Community Had To Say About Religion On The Island
We know what the Church's position is when it comes to same-sex marriages. We've heard it all time and time again. But what about the other side? Do we know what the LGBTQ+ Community has to say about the Church in Malta?
Lovin Malta's online survey on religion in Malta shed some light on the topic. We're very aware that the answers we got are a very narrow representation of what most think, and that not everyone holds the same views. Of these respondents, nearly all stated that they were Christian, while 71% saying that they attend Mass only on special occasions. 17.6% of respondents said that they never go to Mass, while 11.4% said that they attend once a week.
But here, nonetheless, is what they had to say.
Homosexuals on growing up in Malta
Maltese society was a highly close-knit, closed and largely traditional community during most of contemporary times (we're thinking post-WWII). So anyone with even one toe out of the line was largely shunned.
And that's bound to leave its mark on a person. As this person said, "Growing up in Malta the Church had quite the impact – I remember that you could not watch a Xarabank show about gay people without a priest there. Ridiculous."
Those of a non-heterosexual sexual orientation felt embarrassed and guilty to be who they were. Social pressure on them was real and intense. But what does this say about their own private religious beliefs?
So, has Malta changed and do those in the LGBTQ+ community feel more accepted by the Church?
Our survey results are inconclusive about this. But it does shed light on a variety of views. This respondent explained it clearly; "I am in a gay relationship – so sometimes I do wonder about certain things."
One respondent said that "being gay hasn't changed a thing in my beliefs as I am a normal Catholic person who tries to live a normal and good life." But a younger respondent said, "Well being gay and not being accepted by the church is rough."
But it isn't the same for everyone. One person showed this by saying, "I am openly gay but still attend mass regularly. Sometimes I don't feel accepted in my religion but I believe that God made all of us." There are those who feel accepted, no matter their sexual orientation. Like this woman, who asserted that "I'm lesbian and I still pray and believe that if Jesus had to come on this Earth today he'd still love me."
Others feel that the Church looks at them with disgust, like this person who said that "I'm bisexual, so it's hindered me from being completely myself, especially with the older generation/avid churchgoers that still think me and whomever I love are unnatural."
How willing are the respondents from the LGBTQ+ Community to let the Church have a say on their relationships?
The general remark that we got here is that because they are gay, then they won't be able to get married in Church. We also got the response of no, the Church doesn't have a say on their relationships.
"Well as a lesbian, the church doesn't have much say in our relationship. She was raised atheist anyway."
Most agreed that there's no need to attend Mass to be a Christian, as a large proportion of our 1,000 survey respondents said – regardless of their sexual orientation or age.
So long as anyone is able to live good lives with good morals, be humble, and love well, then these respondents don't see why they should feel anything other than positive about who they are and how they choose to live.

Save the last minute toiletries and my carry-on bags we are packed. The minibus will retrieve us at 6 am. Right now it just seems surreal. This evening Wang Xiu Li (of cooking lesson fame) came by to drop off some off my favorite 姜高 and 紅豆高 to eat during the flight. She was also kind enough to take a lot of overstock off our hands, children's art supplies, surplus stuffed animals, etc. Now the kids, who were over stimulated and found it impossible to sleep with all the comings and goings over the last 2 hours, have just fallen asleep.
Jie-jie and Mei-mei are always amazing us with their flexibility and willingness to go along with our travels. They are doing such a great job parting with many of the possessions they have accumulated here. Jie-jie has become so grown-up here in China. She has recently become much better at sharing. While she has always wanted to be helpful with her sister and around the house, lately she actually IS helpful – certainly a welcome change from the long-standing situation in which I need to think creatively about how she could be successful in her desire to be helpful. Jie-jie expresses enthusiasm for her Vermont homecoming but she also likes to ask when she will be going back to her kindergarten here in Guangzhou. This evening she told Wang Xiu Li that we would be coming back to China next week. We will endeavor to get her back here but next week is a bit too early for me.
Mei-mei was only just beyond baby when we arrived here. She was a minimal talker, still in the stroller and had little confidence to leave her mother's side. She is now a big girl who walks everywhere, speaks her mind and seeks out independent interaction with others. Mei-mei clearly has little memory of Vermont and I think she confuses it with Thailand because she keeps asking if we can go to the beach when we get back. Fortunately, Mei-mei does speak quite fondly of the little girl who lives next door and will be attending preschool with her in the fall. She has suggested that, when we get back, her Guangzhou pal Wang Fei-fei and her neighborhood pal will both be coming over for her birthday party. Mei-mei has clearly decided that she needs to celebrate her 3rd birthday again once we get home.
So much of my experience of China has centered around my children – their health, their schooling, their language acquisition, the challenges of parenting interculturally, etc. I find that at this juncture my desire to return to China intermittently is motivated to a large extent by the goal of helping them maintain the language abilities and the relationships they have here. However, my desire to return home is also oriented toward my caring for them. I want them to know home and belonging in a way outside of the realm of possibility here in Guangzhou. Let me explain.
Yesterday we went with our friends to the park. In the park there is a "bounce house." We bought admission for the kids. Mei-mei was a bit uneasy and mostly hung onto the sides near where we were standing. Jie-jie and her friend had a blast running and climbing and bouncing. In a short time they had joined up with 4 or 5 other children their age and the lot of them created a fantasy world that they were acting out. Jie-jie learned Chinese to communicate with her friends and in that setting she is most fluent and comfortable in the language (she and Mei-mei tend to play almost exclusively in Chinese as well). That is also the setting in which her language ability draws the least attention. So, she and Mei-mei were in the bounce house and, as usual, they were drawing a lot of attention in the form of people yelling "Hello!" waving and taking pictures. Once the adults began to catch on that Jie-jie could speak Chinese, however, she went from being a cute zoo attraction to a circus act. Every time she approached the wall some adult would speak to her while taking a video. She was getting distressed. I told the people around me she was shy but they paid me no mind. Finally, Jie-jie responded to a woman who pushed a camera right in her face. "我不要!" (I don't want). The woman ignored her protest and continued to film. "不要! 不要! 不要! 不要!" She yelled defiantly. The woman backed down.
No matter how long my kids spent in China they will always be a circus act. Today we were sitting in a restaurant at lunch and a grandmother caught sight of us. She pulled her 2 year old grandson out of his baby chair and led him over to Jie-jie. "See the white foreigner little friend? Say hello, big sister!" Then she walked around the table to Mei-mei, "Say hello to the other big sister!" None of us even cast a glance their way. We are tired of carrying the torch for the West, the US and/or white folks and we are ready to go home.

Impeachment! - Clearly at the top of the Democratic list of talking points. Why? The trade war with China has rocked the stock market. Before you blame Trump, how bad would it be if we lose? And, the IMF chairwoman says riots and violence are not the answer in France. But what options did her people have when the government refused to listen to its citizens?

Alimony and Child Support
Federal law excepts child support and alimony from the anti-garnishment provision. If the divorce court awarded your ex-spouse support, she can garnish your disability payments to collect the amounts due every month. A divorce court issues an order directing the Social Security Administration to withhold a certain amount of your disability check and to pay it to your former spouse.
Division of Property in Divorce
States that regard all income earned and assets acquired during a marriage as the equal property of both spouses are termed community property states. Generally, these states do not consider Social Security disability income as community property if it has not been mingled with other income; it is the sole property of the disabled spouse, meaning the income is generally not affected by the divorce. However, in states that seek to divide marital property equitably, disability payments are considered by the court in making a division of property.

Health Professional Training in Kenya and Tanzania
Tenwek Hospital of Kenya has a program called Helping Babies Breathe.
Helping Babies Breathe is a curriculum for neonatal resuscitation designed to train health providers in low-resource settings. It has provided training for 4 sites of Kenya and Tanzania with 180 neonatal care providers.
Six master trainers have been trained at 2 different sites to continue to teach Helping Babies Breathe and sustain education programs.
RESULTS- the team saw a dramatic drop in birth asphyxia. The Principal Investigator, Dr. Rule, an American doctor, hopes to continue to work with the obstetric team in designing further endeavors and expand this model to other low-resource settings to save newborns and mothers. In the meantime, she is writing the final manuscript for education and quality improvement projects. She says:
"The project has been presented at multiple meetings at Cincinnati Children's hospital and both papers have been submitted for presentation at Pediatric Academic Societies in Spring 2016."

You Can't Have A Dog Wedding Without A Bachelor Party With Strippers (Video)
If it seems like every single sketch from this season of "Inside Amy Schumer" has gone viral, that's because it has.
Schumer and her team of writers have finally cracked the code, and apparently, it involves absurdly progressive comedy in every single interpretation of the phrase.
Normally, she mixes her comedic talents with some genuine social issue or at least some kind of "truth" (like how women love getting signs from the universe) but here, she gives us one thing and one thing only: dog strippers.
Now, that's not dogs that strip. No, that's too obvious. These are women, human women, forced to strip for dogs.
Not sure there's much more I have to say about that. Although, maybe I should note I once read that dogs have penises that can lock into dog vaginas. Basically, they have penis anchors.
I just thought you guys should know.

Chemistry Vocabulary
Atom = The smallest unit of matter; The basic unit of a chemical element. For example, Water (H2O) is made up of three atoms.
Colloid = Milk, Jell-O, glue and fog are colloids. The particles in a colloid are larger than ones found in solutions but smaller than ones found in suspensions. A Colloid is a homogeneous solution with intermediate particle size between a solution and a suspension. The colloid looks homogeneous to the naked eye. Colloids frequently appear "murky" or "opaque". The particles are large enough to scatter light. Fog is a colloid and you have experience with the way fog interacts with the light from car headlights. Colloids generally do not separate on standing. They are not separated by filtration. Many familiar substances, including butter, milk, cream, aerosols (fog, smog, and smoke), asphalt, inks, paints, glues, and sea foam are colloids.
Compound = a chemical substance that is formed from two or more elements, that bond in a fixed ratio. For example, water (H2O) is a compound that is composed of two hydrogen atoms for every oxygen atom. NH3, HCl, H2O2, SiO2, CH4, C2H2, and C2H4, are compounds. In contrast, O2 is not a compound because it is only made of one element. A compound is a pure substance.
Covalent Bonding is where 2 or more atoms bond by sharing their outer electrons. Generally, covalent bonds are made between nonmetal atoms. The result of this bond is a molecule. Covalent means, "sharing outer electrons". The nucleus of an atom is never changed or altered after bonding. Covalent bonding allows atoms to complete their outer shells.
Oxygen gas = O2
1 element, 2 atoms
Water = H2O
2 elements, 3atoms
Rubbing Alcohol = CH3 CH2 CH2 OH
3 elements, 12 atoms
Electrons are stable subatomic particles that have a negative charge. They can be found in the shells of atoms outside the nucleus. A pair of electrons form a covalent bond between atoms.
An element is composed of one kind of atom. An element is a pure substance. An element cannot be broken down by physical or chemical means. 90 elements occur naturally on Earth. The other 19 or so are made in the lab. This means that in the universe, there are only 90 different types of atoms that make everything. C, H, O, N and P are the primary elements that make up living organisms.
Heterogeneous Mixture – is made up of visibly different substances or phases. Sand is a heterogeneous mixture. Heterogeneous mixtures are not uniform. There are pockets of one substance surrounded by pockets of different substances. A mixture of soil in water to make "mud" is heterogeneous. Likewise, a mixture of oil and water in salad dressing is heterogeneous. Beach sand is heterogeneous since you can see different colored particles.
Homogeneous Mixture – appears uniform and consistent throughout. Solutions and colloids are homogeneous mixtures. A lemonade drink is a homogeneous mixture, known as a solution. So is air. Both brass and glass are homogeneous mixtures/solutions.
Ion: a charged particle formed when an atom (or molecule) gains or loses one or more electrons.
Ionic Bonding: is a type of bonding in which ions are held together by the strong attraction of their opposite charges. The nucleus of an atom is never changed or altered after bonding.
Isotope: An isotope is an atom that has a different number of neutrons in its nucleus. Thus, an isotope has a different mass when compared to other atoms of the same element.
The octet rule states that after bonding...
1) 8 electrons surround all atoms in columns 4-7. (After bonding)
2) Hydrogen's outer ring is completed with 2 electrons. (After bonding)
3) All atoms have a complete outer ring. All electrons are paired up. (After bonding)
4) All atoms have a complete outer ring like noble gasses. (After bonding)
In summary: Atoms share or transfer their electrons with other atoms to complete their outer ring and be like the noble gasses.
Mixture = a physical combination of 2 or more substances. Each substance maintains its own properties. The substances can be physically separated.
A molecule consists of two or more atoms that bond by sharing their outer electrons.
Hydrogen gas (H2) and water (H20) are examples of molecules.
A Precipitate is solid that comes out from a solution during a chemical reaction.
Precipitation is the separation of a solid from a solution during a chemical reaction.
Protons are stable subatomic particles that are found in the nucleus of all atoms. Protons have a positive charge and counteract the charge of electrons. The number of protons in the nucleus determines what the element is. For instance, atoms with one proton are the element hydrogen. Atoms with 8 protons are the element of Oxygen.
Neutrons are a subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen.
Noble gasses are elements found in column 8 of the periodic table. Each element in this family (Helium, Neon, Argon, etc…) has a complete outer ring of electrons. All of their electrons are paired up. This is why noble gasses do not interact with other atoms.
An organic compound is any member of a large class of chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon and hydrogen
Reactions: The nucleus of is never changed or altered after a chemical reaction. For instance, 2H2O can be broken back down to 2H2 and O2.
Solute – this is the substance that gets dissolved. For example, lemonade drink mix is the solute that gets added to the water (solvent).
Solvent – the substance the does the dissolving. For example, water is the solvent when you mix in lemonade drink mix.
Solution: a substance consisting of two or more substances mixed together and uniformly dispersed, most commonly the result of dissolving a solid, fluid, or gas in a liquid. A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances. Hydrogen Peroxide when mixed with water is a solution. Air is a solution. An example of a liquid solution is aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCl in water). A solution may exist in any phase. An example of a solid solution is brass. Glass is another solid solution.
Subatomic Particles = particles smaller than an atom. Protons, neutrons and electrons are subatomic particles. In other words, they are particles that are smaller than the atom.
A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture of larger visible particles that will settle out over time. Muddy water is a suspension.
Symbol: Elements have been given a symbol. The symbol consists of one, two or three letters. If there is more than one letter for the symbol, only the first letter is capitalized. The symbols for some elements have been known since ancient times and are derived from their Latin names. Ex: Potassium (K) is Kalium in Latin. Sodium (Na) is Natrium in Latin.
Valence electrons are electrons outside filled rings or shells. They are the outer electrons.

From Keighley News, July 19th, 2018
Written by David Knights
BOSSES of Sainsbury's and Asda insist they plan to keep both stores open in Keighley following the companies' planned merger. But in a top-level discussion with Keighley MP John Grogan they admitted they might be forced to close one of the stores to avoid breaching competition rules. Mr Grogan quizzed Roger Burnley and Mike Coupe, the chief executives of Asda and Sainsbury's, during a recent session of the Parliamentary Select Committee on the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. He sought reassurances about the future of the two local stores – which lie on either side of the railway track in central Keighley – and terms and conditions for staff across the country.

School Frolics
Designed for students in 1st grade through 5th grade, School Frolics provide five educational and fun-filled hours of learning about Colonial America and historic Native American culture through living history demonstrations and hands-on activities.
Frolics educate the whole student by providing a multi-faceted educational experience around the 1719 Hans Herr House and the life and culture of the Swiss-German Mennonites that settled here. This learning opportunity takes place along "The Great Conestoga Road" at the very birth-place of Lancaster County.
Students lean about the life and culture of eastern woodland Native Americans at the Longhouse, a full-sized furnished replica of the type of dwelling used by Native Americans in this part of Pennsylvania. Learn about the food they ate, the tools they used and and the impact the Europeans had on their culture and very existence.
At the Frolic students walk around the Herr House and Longhouse grounds stopping at stations where interpreters demonstrate cooking and crafts, explain Colonial and Native American lifestyles, and highlight notable features of the 1719 House, the Longhouse and surrounding gardens and orchards.
- Hands on
Frolic participants receive the unique chance to see, hear, smell, and taste the elements of Colonial & Native American life. Students get to play Colonial and Native games and participate in demonstrations like basket making, quilting, butter churning, scherenschnitte and fraktur. When they are done, they can wash up with authentic home-made soap.
- Authentic
Frolics reveal the authentic details of 1750 clothing, Germanic architecture, blacksmithing, a four-square German garden, wool spinning, and fabric dyeing, in addition to authentic Native American architecture, hide tanning, food preparation and basket making.
- Flavorful
Students will enjoy tastes of Colonial & Native American life including freshly made butter, three sisters soup, smoked sausage, ginger bread, and pound cake. Frolics are enhanced by the smells of a blacksmith's fire, smoke-house smoke, woodshop shavings, and a wood fire on the hearth.
School Frolics at the 1719 Herr House are a great culminating activity to any social studies or history curriculum.

Jacob could feel the blood rushing though his veins. His heart was pounding abnormally. He recalled with dread what these symptoms meant. He rushed out into the woods with the usual things. When he reached the specific place, he chained himself to the big oak tree.
Jacob slowly took apart his clothes and waited with patience while looking earnestly at the full moon that had already steered clear of the soft white clouds. He felt his heart pounding faster than ever, and the blood rushed to his head. A terrible pain similar to when bones cracking engulfed his burly body. He screamed with horror and despair. It had started.
His spine had protruded from the middle and took an arched shape. Slowly but surely, auburn hair grew out from all parts of his suffering body. His limbs and hands had transformed from mere human ones to the hideous claws of a wolf. Jacob waited with patience till the end of the painstaking process. As soon as it was over, and he had completely transformed, the wolf looked sympathetically at the bright shining moon embedded on the clear star ridden sky, and howled.
Werewolves are mythological creatures that have the ability to shapeshift into wolves. They are forced to do this when under a curse. The process is initiated when the person under the curse sleeps outside on a summer night with the full moon shining directly on his or her face.
Werewolves are said to be vulnerable to silver and highly resistant to any form of injuries.

From the ferry boat take the main road to the left, direction Tarrafal.
After about 1.5 km, turn to the left (one road there is a sign "Praia de Topo" and "Morabeza Tours") so follow the signs towards the beach.

Vanessa Skye has always had a love of words and spent her school years writing poetry, speeches, and fictional essays.
After completing a Bachelor of Arts in print journalism and studying psychology at Charles Sturt University, Vanessa got a job at Australia's largest publisher of regional and agricultural news and information, Rural Press, where she worked as a journalist in the central west of New South Wales for four years.
Thousands of stories later, Vanessa decided to move back to Sydney and try her hand at public relations while studying for a master's degree in communication.
Skip forward a few years and Vanessa was once again joyfully studying various psychology subjects while managing a Sydney public relations firm. Enthralled with examining the motivations behind people's actions, Vanessa realized what she really wanted to do in life was combine her love of words with her fascination for human behavior. So Vanessa quit public relations to begin the significantly more impoverished life of a professional writer.
Inspired by a recurring dream, Vanessa wrote her crime fiction debut, The Enemy Inside, which challenges the concept of justice, asks if the need for vengeance sometimes justifies murder, and explores whether you can ever heal from childhood abuse. Broken is her second book in this series. In her spare time, Vanessa wrote a short story, The Piece, which was published in February 2012, by Dark Prints Press as a part of the 'One That Got Away' dark fiction anthology.
Vanessa now works as a freelance writer, lives in Sydney's northern beaches, and tries to immerse herself in salt water at least once a day.
Book 3 of Edge of Darkness Series
by Vanessa Skye
Released: January 18 , 2015
Published by The Writers Coffee Shop
Genre: FICTION / Suspense / Dark
ISBN e-book: 978-1-61213-366-9
Available from: Amazon, Kobo, Barnes and Noble, iTunes and TWCS PH
Following the acclaimed debut of The Enemy Inside and its sequel, Broken, comes the stunning conclusion to the 'Edge of Darkness' series by investigative journalist Vanessa Skye, Blood Lines.
Detective Alicia "Berg" Raymond is lying. She's lying to the Chicago Police Department, to her boyfriend, Captain Jay O'Loughlin, but most of all, she's lying to herself—about her past, her future, and her ongoing addiction.
As Berg investigates a series of brutal rapes and sinks under an ever-increasing caseload, she finds herself juggling every aspect of her life—finding justice for victims of crime, keeping her own sordid past buried from her colleagues, struggling with blackmail that threatens to push her over the edge, and protecting her lover from the details of all of it.
Wrapping her damaged head around living in a state of domestic bliss she's certain she doesn't deserve, Berg is driven by the need for justice and a determination to stop a rapist before any more innocent lives are ravaged.
But when enemies from the past threaten her present, she is once again vulnerable to the demons that have plagued her every day of her life.
It's only a matter of time before her lies unravel and the fairy tale she's finally started believing implodes . . . but the biggest threat of all, as it turns out, is her very own bloodline.
Can she save herself, and the casualties of crime, from the lurking darkness waiting to strike, or will her own mistakes drag her under—this time for good?
Review by Ramona
Bloodlines exceeded my expectations, Vanessa Skye! I had read the first book, The Enemy Inside, but somehow missed the second, Broken. Yet, I was able to understand and get into the final installment with minimal problems in the beginning. By mid-story, I was reacquainted with the original characters and also on good terms with the new ones. Not often a crime/suspense series is written with such brilliant continuity.
Alicia Berg seems to be a better version of herself - on the outside. Inside, there is still that struggle to keep herself from getting the punishment she feels she deserves. Yes, she is a masochist but for all the wrong reasons. Or not? Maybe all those rumors about her "helping hands" are true?
The Jay I knew and loved in the beginning seems to be all but gone. What happens screams of a desperate man, not the confident, positive, good cop he started out as. Yes, he loves Berg, but have her actions pushed him too far? I could only hope he was strong enough to redeem himself as well as Berg.
There is no way I could have predicted what was to come next. To say I was as confused and clueless as the characters themselves would be an understatement. Those twists kept coming and didn't stop! Since it doesn't happen that often to me, by the time I reached the third or fourth red herring, I finally gave up and went along with Ms Skye's ride. No more guessing, and I had tons of fun.
Well, as much fun as could be had with a gritty, bloody, violent story of a drug lord that stops at absolutely nothing to establish his place in the city. There's no censorship here, everything is described down to its last detail almost as if you're watching an R-18 action movie. I was looking for signs of bruising and stray droplets of blood by the time I was done.
Alexander, though, seemed a tad too much. While I admire his brain and how it worked, he was a little much immortal and omniscient for me. I would think that even if he had that many tendrils of information he would slip up somewhere. Sure, Berg surprised him but considering how he got things done, he should have just been finished with her at the outset. He was over the top slippery for me. His character worked, don't get me wrong, but I was looking for flaws and only found one. Thankfully for Berg, it was enough, but still. He was just that short of unbelievable.
The others, especially Arena, were the best supporting characters you could ask for. That Arena could have a series of his own, in my opinion, and I'd be in line to read it!
I wish Vanessa Skye didn't need to end the Edge of Darkness series with Bloodlines. I wish there was more, but I'm willing to settle for any more books that she decides to churn out. And I hope that time comes very soon.
Be sure to look for Book One-The Enemy Inside and Book Two-Broken well!
Praise for Bloodlines
"So good! As with the previous two books in this series, I absolutely loved it. The pacing was great, there was nice dry humour to lighten the very dark tone, and all the characters completed a satisfying arc from books one and two. Berg in particular is fantastic – I loved that she didn't completely go back to her old ways when she was at her lowest, and the ending leaves us with hope for her future. " - Andrea

For the past days, gospel musician Brother Sammy has been in the news for faking his accident, an allegation made by FIPAG PRO, Michael Kwaku Ola.
This allegation by Ola angered the gospel musician. Sammy on Nhyira FM Monday afternoon cursed the producer.
Ola after the musician went haywire has spoken again. In an interview with Zionfelix.com Monday evening, minutes after he was cursed, the movie producer stated that he is not troubled by the curse. According to him, Sammy should have behaved like a Christian instead of getting angry.
He further disclosed that manager of the artiste contacted him after his allegation to retract his comments but he refused.
According to Ola, he did not withdraw his statement because manager of the artiste refused to pay an amount he quoted.
When Zionfelix.com contacted manager of Brother Sammy, Kofi Nkosuo, he confirmed contacting Ola to tell the world what he said was false but Ola did not ask him to pay an amount before doing so.
The audio below has Brother Sammy's curse on Nhyira FM, Michael Kwaku Ola's reply, Kofi Nkosuo's comment on the saga, how Brother Sammy narrated his accident and police report of Brother Sammy's accident.

 The beach and harbour were 5 mins walk away. Only 15 mins from airport. 12 euros in taxi. But plane noise was no trouble

 Whole family really enjoyed the whole 10 days we were in Caleta de Fuste.

The resort was lovely very quiet and plenty of loungers round the pool side the beaches were quiet too. I would like to have been nearer the beach however the reception staff were always happy to book a taxi (approx 3 Euro one way) or the little dotto train went to the beach area every half an hour (2 Euro's one way).

 It's worth looking round the harbour area. The electric scooters were good fun too (15 Euro's an hour or 25 Euro's for 2 hours). Next time I would hire a car and look to the north of the Island. There is a local bus service that's an option.

 The market is worth a visit it's on a Tuesday and Saturday 8am to 3pm the goods are cheaper than the shops.

 Overall I would return back to the resort but would like to be nearer to the beach area.

Please note: the comments above are the subjective opinions of customers and not of sunshine.co.uk Ltd
Caleta de Fuste is set in a wide, horseshoe shaped bay of golden sand backed by a promenade and with sheltered waters, ideal for families. There are loungers and shades for hire and volleyball nets on the beach.
On the southern stretch of the resort the lagoon beaches are also backed by a wide promenade and tend to be quieter.
Things to Do
The harbour in Caleta de Fuste is the centre point for water-sports and boat trips. From here you can take whale-watching cruises, boat-trips with under-water viewing or go deep sea fishing. The Deep Blue Dive Centre offers everything from introductions to scuba diving through to PADI Open Water Courses.
The southern end of the resort is dominated by two championship 18 hole golf courses. The Golf Club Salinas de Antigua (par 70) and the Fuerteventura Golf Club (par 72), both have a Golf School, a Pro Golf Shop and, of course, a Club House. There is a further 18 hole golf course at Las Playitas (35km).
Next to the harbour you will see the Torre de San Buenaventura, an 18th century fortress with stone round walls and a small drawbridge. It is similar in design to the Toston Tower on the outskirts of El Cotillo and both towers house an information centre.
Out and About
There are plenty of shops, bars, pavement cafes and restaurants in the resort located on the main strip and at a number of commercial centres spread throughout the resort. Where ever you stay in Caleta de Fuste you will never be too far from the resort amenities.
Opposite the golf courses, the Atlantico Shopping Centre hosts regular cultural events in its outdoor amphitheatre which bridges the area between the indoor shopping centre and the beach front promenade. The Saturday street market is held at the Montecastillo Shopping Centre.
Nearby Attractions
From the Atlantico, follow the road for approx 2km south of the resort to visit the working salt pans and the Museum of Salt. For family days you can visit the Oasis Park in La Lajita and the Baku Water Park in Corralejo, which are both approx 45km away (albeit in opposite directions). The capital of Puerto del Rosario is approx 13km and the inland towns of Antigua and Betancuria are 20-30km.

Vice President Joe Biden Speaks at OutGiving 2015Mon May 11, 2015
On Saturday, May 2, Vice President Joe Biden delivered remarks at the biennial OutGiving conference in Dallas. OutGiving brings together major donors and institutional funders – both LGBT and allies – in a private setting to connect, learn, and exchange ideas on ways to advance equality through strategic and intentional philanthropy.
The Vice President delivered the following remarks to a crowd of 150:
One of the great things about being in the business I'm in, and I really mean it, is as you travel around the country, as you engage in the issues of the day, you actually make friends, friends for a lifetime, friends you know that even though you don't see each other that much, you know if you picked up the phone and you called for help, they wouldn't ask. They'd be there. That's how I feel about Scott and Tim. That's how I feel about you, and I don't even know you guys that well. No, I really mean it. I really mean it. You can tell. You can taste it. You can feel it. You can smell it. It's just — as my mother would say, it's that sixth sense.
I came for a simple reason. I came to say thank you. And I really mean that. Not only for what you've done for the LGBT community, but for what you've done for every straight man and woman in America. You so underestimate the consequence of the courage you've shown from the time you were kids. You've freed decent, ordinary Americans, the vast majority of whom are not homophobic, the vast majority of whom are just unsure, ignorant, not knowing, not exposed.
You allowed them to feel comfortable — comfortable in their skin in supporting basic human rights for all people. And I really mean it. It's because so many of you, men and women in this room of character and consequence, were willing to step forward early, risking your positions, risking in some cases, your physical security. You stepped up and you spoke out.
As I said in the video, and I've said time and time again, Harvey was right and I got a chance to get to know Harvey a little bit: "Hope will never be silent." But you're the ones. You're the ones that gave so many people hope because you weren't silent.
Imagine what it would if you stayed silent. I mean it sincerely you so underestimate the power of what you've done.
So many Americans even 10 years ago knew it was wrong to discriminate, but they didn't think it was socially acceptable to stand up and take issue. They weren't bad. They didn't know. But you made them comfortable. You made them realize it's their brothers, their sisters, the neighbor, their roommate in school that they didn't know at the time. You changed it all. You're the ones that have changed the culture. And that's what's required, a fundamental cultural change. And it's happening. It's happening with real rapidity.
I've been asked by many of you in this room — and my wife, as I speak, is down in Atlanta, talking to the Human Rights Commission down there. She is — my whole family, everybody — I'm always asked, why did I speak out, why did I have — it was real simple, real simple. It's the way I was raised. I was raised by a decent, gentle man — a true gentleman, definition of which is never inflicting harm on anyone else, without a prejudiced bone in his body.
He really did believe — my dad — he really did believe all God's children are entitled to be treated with dignity. The word I heard him use more than anything else about everything was about dignity. Everyone is entitled to be treated with dignity and respect. I remember when I was a teenager — I told Scott this story before, and I think I did Tim because I was asked why — what was it about how I was raised. And I remember my dad, who ran an automobile agency, I was — I worked in a suburban not country club, a swimming club, and I was a lifeguard. And it was a great job. But I had an opportunity to work in the projects in the city of Wilmington. I was really — got very early on engaged in the Civil Rights Movement. So I was going down to the city hall in Wilmington, Delaware to get an application to work in the city park systems where the six big swimming pools. And because it was hard to get a parking spot, my dad was driving me in, going to drop me off, go around the block while I got the application, fill it in, and then drive me back — we weren't very far from there — and go to work.
And I'll never forget there were two guys by Rodney Square. And we stopped at a red light, and two guys on the corner, and they turned and kissed — embraced one another, and kissed. And each walked a different direction. And I looked at my dad quizzically — because I had not seen that before — and he just looked at me, he said, Joe, they're in love.
That was the totality of the explanation, just self-evident: Joe, they're in love. Simple as that.
So quite frankly, it's been extremely simple for me ever since. There's nothing complicated about this. Because I learned early on there is never, never, never a cultural justification for denying someone their basic human rights, or stripping away their dignity in any circumstance. Culture cannot be used as an excuse to denigrate, to persecute, to take advantage of another human being on any basis. Because whether it's about violence against women, or it's about LGBT community, or it's cultural differences — these really are — not a joke — they're our brothers, they're our sisters, they're our classmates, they're our neighbors, they're our friends. So thank you for everything you've done and continue to do.
Mary, I was talking about you — we got to talk a little bit earlier. Mary Bonuato is here tonight who has argued so brilliantly and well before the Supreme Court on the subject of marriage equality this past week.
If the Court decides, as — and it's always a jinx as a former trial lawyer to predict what a court is going to do — so I'm not predicting, Mary. But let me put it this way, if the Court does the right thing, this is going to be as consequential — and Mary is going to be as remembered — as Brown versus School Board and Thurgood Marshall. It's that fundamental.
Like I said I got started in the Civil Rights Movement. The first case in separate but equal challenge that went to the Supreme Court was Gebhart v. Belton. It was a Delaware case. There were three cases — Delaware, Kansas. And the first African American made a member of the Delaware bar — I had the great honor of, as a young public defender, after leaving a white-shoe law firm because my city was in flames after Dr. King was killed — Louis L. Redding. And I got to know him. He was one of the lawyers in that case. And he helped change my life, just knowing him. Mary, there are going to be young lawyers who are going to say the same thing about you. And it is such — it will be such a well-deserved place in history you'll have.
And Robbie Kaplan. You took Edie Windsor's case for dignity and justice all the way to the Supreme Court, and you won.
And Jon Stryker, whose Arcus Foundation extends hope and support for organizations fighting for social justice in every part of the world. I was recently in Africa. And you may remember I got — I didn't get in trouble because the President supported me, I made it clear that the policies Uganda has, the policy that exists in Africa, it's just absolutely unacceptable if they want our help.
And as I'm proud to say, as my former intern Evan Wolfson, the architect of the Freedom to Marry campaign. He was a kid when he worked for me. I don't know where you're sitting, old buddy, but thanks for the public education. I appreciate it.
And because of you, all of you, I am extraordinarily optimistic. When I spoke in that clip you just saw on "Meet the Press" back on May 6, 2012, as Scott said, there were six states with marriage equality. Now there are 37; 224 million Americans now live where same-sex marriage is legal.
It didn't happen because of me, it happened because of you, and your unrelenting determination to uphold the basic human rights of all Americans. This is a human rights issue. Because of all of you, we're changing things in the boardrooms, in the chambers of commerce, civic associations, schools, and government at every level.
We're changing the conversation in this country — literally changing the conversation in this country. Eleven years ago, discrimination against same-sex couples was considered really good politics. Think about it, just 11 years ago, 11 states passed marriage bans on the same ballot that re-elected George W. Bush. I'm not blaming him. I don't mean that. No, I really don't. But in that election — in that election — affirmatively passing bans because it was good politics.
Even some of our friends on the other side of the aisle they don't find it so appropriate these days. No, think about it. Think about how it's changed because they're not at all reluctant to — some occasionally — demagogue these issues. But think of the silence that's going on among some of our — the candidates running for President. I never thought I'd say silence is an improvement, but that's a great improvement from that team.
So you've changed the basic politics of this nation because of all of what you've done. Now, many of you — and by the way, the thing that's unusual about this group — if you'll speak in the Human Rights Campaign. I've had the great honor of speaking to the Human Rights Campaign in Los Angeles, and in Washington, and thousands upon thousands of people, but you're a different group — all extremely important. And I've said this to you before, my friend Mel from Philadelphia — you're all very exceptionally successful people. You're powerful people. And you've changed an aspect of this debate that didn't exist before and public pressure alone would not change it. You've actually changed the way boardrooms respond. Many in the business community have been leading the charge against discriminatory laws. You brought business off the sidelines, into the statehouses, advocating for the rights of their employers and customers. You've made it good business. Think about it. You've made it good business. You could not have done with all your leadership and power — the men and women in this room — have done that 10 years ago. I know you tried in Philly. No, I'm not joking. But it's changed. You changed it.
You have the power to influence and reach a different audience than the grassroots community, which is essential. You have the reach to impact on attitudes, the statements and practices of major businesses.
Here in Texas, the way the business community came together to make a difference in Plano was amazing. Amazing. Really.
But we've got to do more. I know you know it. This is preaching to the choir, as they say. You have to awaken the American people to the realities in their midst. They're not bad folks. They're decent, basically good people. Because they're with us.
When I got banged around for, as the President, "getting out over my skis" — I'm a better skier than the rest of them. I can ski. I'm a good skier. And by the way, he embraced it when I saw him Monday after "Meet the Press." I walked into the Oval, and he just started laughing. He said, you told me. You told me you weren't going to change your brand or wear funny hats. I love you for it. He really did. I mean he just totally embraced it. Not everybody was as happy I might add.
But, for example, think about this right now — and by the way, I made a bet then. I made a bet inside the White House that by the end of the week, the polls would show the American people were with me. I believed it. I never doubted it, and they were — even then it was 53, 54 percent right off the bat.
But right now, think about this — we're trying to fight for ENDA — it's been an ongoing struggle — but right now the polls show nine out of 10 Americans think that it's illegal anywhere in America to fire someone just for being a lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. Nine out of 10 Americans think that is already illegal. They think that. But in many places in this country, as you all well know, it is not illegal at all.
It shocks the conscience, that at this moment in American history, in 28 states including right here, by the way, where 7 percent of the LGBT population resides — in Texas, over 600,000 people — Americans are denied the basic dignity of work because of who they are or who they love. We've got to pass federal non-discrimination legislation.
And there's a lot more we need to do. But first of all we have to do, and you're able to do it — and I keep talking about it, but you're more important — and I mean that sincerely — we got to let American people know what the law is. Nine out of 10 think, in effect, that ENDA is already law. They don't know ENDA from SENDA. Nor should they. They're busting their neck just to put meat and potatoes on a plate, send their kids to school, and live in a safe neighborhood.
So there's still a lot of people who need our protection. I know you know this. We live in a country where 15,000 LGBT youth are homeless, largely because their families wouldn't accept who they were.
Nearly one in five transgender people have been homeless at some point in their lives –- kicked out or refused housing because of their identity. And in our schools, the LGBT students are twice as likely to be pushed or kicked, or mocked, laughed at, seen as different. I know this new generation, the younger generation my kids don't think anything of marriage, et cetera. They're with us. But these kids are still banged around by a minority in the schools.
And by the way, when the President and I separately — we didn't talk to each other — both came out, against the unconscionable practice of conversion therapy, you know how many emails I got within 24 hours — how many responses? Seven hundred and ninety thousand. Folks, the American people are with us. The momentum is with us. This is no time to let up. I know you're not. I meant what I said in the video and I'll say it again: As long as I have a breath in me, I will not be satisfied till every lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender community, is afforded the dignity, and the freedom, and the equality that my father spoke of so clearly.
And I'm going to keep on saying that until every one of them are really — it sounds corny afforded the life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness — the most basic, fundamental need is to not be legally, practically or politically rejected. Happiness in that sense is within the reach of every American, regardless of what state they live in, who they are or who they love.
I need you. My children and grandchildren need you. We need you. So keep it up. My Grandpop Ambrose Finnegan used to have an expression. Every time I'd walk out of his house, he'd yell, Joey, keep the faith. And my Grandmom would yell — this is the God's truth, up in Scranton, my Grandma would yell, no, Joey, spread. Spread it, folks. Keep spreading it.
Thank you for all you do for all of us. I love you. Thank you very, very, very, very much. God bless you and may God protect our troops.

When asked about the general attitude to sex in Britain, many will argue that our society is too uptight, formal and inexpressive when it comes to sexuality. Our media thrives on the 'No Sex Please, We're British' vibe, such as is seen in Miranda Hart's BBC show.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0piIxVVYI8– Miranda Hart, 'sex'
So how is it, then, that the UK has been known to be the home of promiscuous citizens, and a place of extraordinarily high teenage pregnancies?
There appears to be an inverted and paradoxical relationship between attitudes to sex, and the actual act, as the more liberal our society is becoming, the 'better-behaved' we are being.Can I be so bold as to suggest that as relaxed attitudes to sex rise, the idea of sex as a 'taboo' subject is falling, therefore the desire to engage in the act flippantly has decreased?
The snub-nosed portion of the population who insist that students these days are simply horny teenagers whose sole purpose of a night out is to get laid, that 16-year-olds' ambition is to get pregnant and that homosexual relationships are wrong will have an overwhelming wealth of evidence against them!
Studies such as the Durex Sexual Wellbeing Global Survey and the British Sex Survey all show that the number of people having sex before their 16th birthday is falling rapidly, notably from 32% in 2002 to 20% in 2006. The number of virgins over the age of 20 is on the increase, too. Over 80% of people support the government's advice that all schools should teach pupils about sexual behaviour and relationships, not just the basic biology of reproduction. This could perhaps be off the back of knowledge we have of The Netherland's sex education, which ensures that children are taught about love and the importance of a steady relationship before jumping into bed with someone.
There have been interesting developments that have occurred in the form of internet 'dating' sites. Entrepreneur Tom Thurlow created the website 'shagatuni.com', a sexually fuelled website encouraging students to get it on with similar-minded individuals, which has been found to be dominated by young women at Oxford University. Since this site opened in October 2012, an enormous 722 Oxford girls have signed up! Blimey.
This carefree attitude to sex may be fun to some, however sexual psychotherapist Paula Hall claims that 'we are clearly not any happier', upon finding that 1/5 is dissatisfied with their sex life. Also, as our life expectancy is increasing, the idea of monogamy is not an attractive one, with just over 60% of the population believing that it is 'natural'. Naughty…
But who can forget the 50 shades trilogy, plastered over newspapers, seen in bookshop windows, and most obviously in the hands of people who may force you to double take. I think it is becoming clear that the 'No Sex Please, We're British' phrase is well and truly dying off for this generation and those to come.

In the great tradition of previous efforts, a new musical number ; Lyrics by myself and hopefully a video soon starring Frances Coppolla. To be sung a la Celine Dion
A song from Yanis
Every night in my dreams
Deficit, structural
and I know the debt it grows on
Built up by the PASOK
and also, by ND
The IMF now say it was wrong
Cuts, slash, whatever we try
It just seems that the well has run dry
Once more the Drachmas in store
Or the troikas cold heart
mean the beatings go on and on
Default can sort it one time
not last for a life time
but reforms are slow and not strong
Europe once we loved you
We lied, too, to get through
now the crisis always goes on
De-fault, with banking controls
or the run I believe will go on
Now, more than ever we hope
that in frankfurt collateral
will be still taken on
Bailout, a third time no doubt
but the cuts they require
well, the party'd expire!
so well just stuff the lenders
or else this goes on and on
Its real, default has no fear
for we know that this way can't go on
We say, to Europe no way
for contagion don't matter
our hearts they are shattered too long

Spring is here and it is time for the traditional spring cleaning. Don't neglect your high heels closet as it also needs some love and attention from you.
Spring cleaning usually means that you have to spend lots of time sorting through stuff and making decisions on what to keep. But it doesn't have to be so difficult. You can do a nice spring cleaning of your high heels with ease if you organize yourself.
First don't set specific goals, like for example getting rid of at least five pairs. This will simply make it harder to choose. Instead simply take a look at your high heels collection. Which pairs you haven't worn in ages? Maybe you don't really need them. Sure, you will have at least a few pairs you don't wear but have sentimental value. Keep them, but the ones you bought two years ago and wore twice need to go no matter how hot they are. Put them on eBay or something.
Then it is time to take inventory and see what you are left with. Examine the shoes. Look for scuffs, tears and other damages. Some can be tackled by you, like changing the tips. For others you will need a professional.
Naturally there will be shoes you will not be wearing during the spring and summer times. Boots too. Give them a very good cleaning before you store them. This will keep them in great condition and ready for the next time you will need them.
Before you return your high heels to the closet or cabinet, take your time to clean it too. A nice and maintained storage place is important for the long life of your heels, plus it will make it more pleasant for you when your pick up a pair to wear.
If you have some special shoes, keep them in their boxes and/or special bags they have come with. This will help you preserve them in great condition for longer.
Remember that spring cleaning should not always mean simply throwing out the stuff you don't want or need. It also means to properly clean the stuff you do want and need.

Ability Grouping, Once Spurned, is Gaining Popularity
When it comes to ability grouping in classroom instruction, what was old is now new again. At one point the practice of putting kids together in a classroom based on their achievement levels was considered standard practice. But this kind of grouping – also known as tracking – lost favor among education experts and administrators by the end of the 1980s. According to The New York Times, however, districts across the country are now giving it another look.
The hints that schools nationwide are adopting ability grouping again came from recently-released National Assessment of Education Progress data. According to the NAEP report, of the 4th grade teachers surveyed, 71% said that they've grouped their students by ability in reading classes in 2009, which represents a 28% increase over the previous decade.
Although grouping is less common in mathematics, more than 60% of instructors said that they've used ability and achievement to guide placement in 2011 for a 40% increase since 1996.
The resurgence of ability grouping comes as New York City grapples with the state of its gifted and talented programs — a form of tracking in some public schools in which certain students, selected through testing, take accelerated classes together.
These programs, which serve about 3 percent of the elementary school population, are dominated by white and Asian students.
Critics of grouping and tracking, a similar practice that assigns students to different classes based on ability, say that it brings about race- and income-segregated school environments. The mass abandonment of grouping in the late 80s and early 90s was driven by the worry that students would lose out by getting "stuck" in a particular group for the remainder of their academic careers.
"The kids who are thought of as the least able end up with the fewest opportunities and resources and positive learning environments," said Jeannie Oakes, author of "Keeping Track: How Schools Structure Inequality," a popular critique of grouping. "The potential benefit is so far outweighed by the very known and well-documented risks."
The NAEP isn't the first to note that the popularity of ability grouping is growing. Earlier this year, the Brookings Institution released its own report showing that teachers were using the approach more and more in their classroom despite criticism from education theorists.
Tom Loveless, who authored the Brown Center Report on American Education, believes that the practice has received an undeserved reputation and that its value to improving academic outcomes for all students will be proven with additional research.

By MICHAEL LETENDRE
The odds were certainly stacked against the Bristol Eastern volleyball squad come tournament time this past September.
Talk about competition, the Class L state tournament bracket was loaded from top to bottom and RHAM (23-2 overall) was the tournaments No. 1 seed while the likes of Fitch (No. 2, 18-1 regular season), Torrington (No. 3, 20-3 overall) and state contender Joel Barlow (No. 4, 16-2) all could have been worthy champions.
Then there was Farmington (No. 5, 18-4 overall) and Eastern (No. 6, 19-4) of course in that possible championship mix.
And then there was this sleeper school, Platt of Meriden, who was hanging around the tournament at the No. 7 slot – carrying a regular season ledger of 16-3, which included a 3-2 match loss to the Lancers – but was rolling to end the campaign
The Panthers won five of six matches to complete the regular season, the only loss coming to Farmington in a 3-1 defeat.
But from there, it was all Platt.
The Panthers won the Central Connecticut Conference Tournament, getting passed RHAM in the final, three sets to one, and then had to run the gauntlet to collect the state championship.
In all, Platt went 24-3 and was crowned Class L champions.
The Panther defeated East Lyme (3-0), No. 2 Fitch (3-2), Bristol Eastern (3-2) and finally, sank RHAM one more time in a 3-1 demolition to take the state title once again – the squad's fifth championship in the sport and the first since 1990.
The bout between Platt and Eastern in the semifinals went the distance, all five sets, and was another classic between the schools.
There was plenty of championship history between the Lancers and Panthers, stemming from when Eastern coach Stacy Rivoira – then Stacy Mills – was the crafty setter for the Bristol outfit.
The Lancers battled Platt in both 1987 and 1988 for the Class M titles.
Eastern swept Platt in 1987, 3-0, while a year later, it was the Panthers winning it three sets to one.
The bottom line in 2015 was the bracket in Class L was stacked and for Eastern, who had an amazing season, making yet a fifth consecutive semifinal appearance, the campaign was a success.
Sometimes, it's the luck of the draw and this time around, it was simply Platt's turn.
And when Platt finally was able to turn away Eastern (25-21, 25-19, 23-25, 17-25 and 15-11) on Nov. 19 from Sport Medicine and Sciences Academy from Hartford, seven outstanding seniors saw their scholastic career conclude for the Lancers.
At 19-4, Eastern was again a top Class L challenger and the squad proved it all season long.
Credit belonged to a three-pack of experienced captains: Megan Gettings, Angela Daley and Bailey Wyrebek.
Daley (277 kills, 59 aces, 151 digs) and Gettings (233 kills, 55 aces, 133 digs), the top duo on the squad in kills, were tough when collecting kills from the outside hitting position while Wyrebek (336 digs) was the defensive guru of the squad.
Wyrebek was the team's last link to the 2012 Class L championship as a freshman and she was able to get court time during the state tournament.
Against Fitch in a Class L semifinal event against RHAM, she was tasked to get into the match and did an incredible job in dropping serves over the net in a pressure packed situation.
Wyrebek made so many big plays from the back line
Lover her final three years as the squad's liberio and simply pulled out big dig after big dig for the squad.
But that trio of seniors didn't do it alone.
Fellow senior Chyna Barrett (133 kills) showed her grit and energy all season long as a middle hitter while Paisley Tucker (75 kills, 13 blocks) showed glimpses of her power game, making kills and blocking shots along the way.
Kamryn McLaughlin also gave the squad invaluable minutes from the middle position over the scholastic campaign while Brittany Solleck also contributed as well.
Over the past four seasons – just like the senior class did the year before – Eastern did not lose a single match in CCC South action.
From 2012-2015, Eastern went 50-0 in CCC South tilts and were once again the champs of its division for four straight seasons.
This past year, the Lancers were 8-0 in CCC South Blue Division action.
One match, the loss to Platt in the state tournament, cannot define Eastern's successful season but if you truly look ast who the Lancers lost to, those losses were to the cream of the CCC crop.
Eastern's senior core leaves a tradition of excellence and it's the hope that a strong junior class, consisting of setter Jessica Kenney (697 assists, 50 aces, 60 digs), middle hitter Mikayla Martin (69 kills, 50 aces), setter and defensive wiz Hannah Langlais (72 digs), along with Sam Bender, Allie Anulewicz and Liz Guilmette will pick up the ball and lead the Lancers back to the Class L tournament fray and, hopefully, complete a deep tournament run.
