Living in Poland?
Transportation and Education in Poland
Traveling by Train — The Most Popular Option
There are many different options when traveling around Poland, with trains one of the most popular modes of transportation. Ideal for long distance journeys, Polish trains are usually punctual, and tickets are reasonably priced.
In Poland just over 19,000 km of train track span the country, making for an extensive rail network. In the mountainous south, where the railways are not as well serviced, the trains are a little bit slower. The Polish State Railways (Polskie Koleje Państwowe — PKP) are divided between two main operators, PKP Intercity and Przewozy Regionalne, as well as between other smaller operators.
You can choose to travel on different types of trains, including intercity, express, and regional trains. As expected, the express and intercity trains are much more comfortable than the slower trains. The regional trains do, however, allow you to visit smaller Polish towns and villages, as these trains often stop at all the local stations.
There are of course also connections to major cities within and outside of Poland, such as Berlin, Prague, Vienna, or Budapest. Long-distance trains are often equipped with additional sleeping cars. You can plan your trip and learn more about ticket prices on the website of the Polish State Railways.
Taking the Bus — Good for Towns and Villages
Taking the bus is the ideal choice if you need or wish to travel to destinations which are not located on a main train line. Most towns and villages have a bus station, so you can reach even remote areas. Poland's inter-city bus network is operated by Państwowa Komunikacja Samochodowa (PKS), and a few other private operators. If you need to ask for directions to bus stations, try using the term "PKS" as well, it is now widely used as a word for buses in general. Some towns offer minibus services, where you can buy your ticket from the driver.
If you have the option of traveling via the usual bus lines or are making a long-distance journey, take a look at Dworzec Online, PKS Polonus, or the Europe-wide Flixbus services. Tickets come at a reasonable price and the buses are also comfortable. All three companies offer online ticket buying options, however, other companies may not, in which case you can purchase your ticket at the bus station or, as mentioned above, directly with the driver. Each bus station should have a timetable showing the times of departure (odjazdy) and destinations (kierunek).
Flying or Driving — A Convenient Choice
Despite the great bus and train connections, flying across the country is growing in popularity. LOT Polish Airlines, the country's official airline, has a big network of domestic flights with daily connections to Warsaw, Cracow, Wroclaw, and other cities. You can purchase tickets online on the LOT website, or at any LOT office or travel agency. Keep your eyes open for discounts and cheap stand-by fares.
Another popular mode of transportation is the car. Here are some things to keep in mind when driving in Poland:
- Different motorways (usually marked with an "A" on a blue board) connect bigger cities and offer convenient connections. National roads, on the other hand, are marked by white numbers in a red box — these roads are often subject to repairs.
- You will have to pay a toll charge to use some sections of the motorways (A1, A2, A4) in Poland. Toll charges vary depending on the distance of your journey and weight of your vehicle.
- Although recent statistics do show a decrease in car theft rates, vehicle theft remains a problem in Poland. Even if it is not your entire car which has gone missing, the contents of your car, if on open display, may quickly disappear. Make sure to get a good car insurance and do not park your vehicle outside of secured parking lots.
- There has been a significant increase in the number of cars on Polish roads in recent years, making driving in Poland more hazardous than in some other European countries. Be sure to remain vigilant when you're on the road.
The Education System
Following education reforms in 1999, schools in Poland are divided into six years of primary school, three years of gymnasium (secondary school), plus two to four years of post-gymnasium schooling. The latter consists of specialized lyceums, general lyceums, technical secondary schools, vocational schools, complementary lyceums, and complementary technical secondary schools.
All in all, Polish children attend 12 to 13 years of school, at the end of which they may take the standardized national secondary school achievement examination and receive a diploma. Education is compulsory for both Polish and foreign children until the age of 18, with both primary and secondary school attendance being obligatory. Expat children have the option of attending public schools in Poland.
International Schools
There are several different international schools for expat children in Poland. Here is a brief overview:
- American School of Warsaw
- British International School of Cracow
- British International School, Gdansk
- International School of Cracow
- British International School in Lodz
- British International School, Wroclaw
- Meridian International School
- Poznan British International School
- The British School, Warsaw
- Wroclaw International School
- International Highschool of Wroclaw

Although Zero is now a real-deal
e-bike company with investors, a dedicated factory filled with employees,
and some real racing success, it wasn't
always that way. It all had to start
somewhere. Neal Saiki was a NASA
engineer who earned his master's
degree in aeronautical engineering while
doing aerodynamic research at NASA.
His work on a high-altitude research airplane set a world record for altitude by
a propeller-driven aircraft.
While at school, he worked on a
state-funded program that looked at
the transportation system for the state
of California. This began his fascination
with electric propulsion systems for
individual transportation. After NASA,
Neal worked in the mountain biking
industry for companies like Haro and
Santa Cruz Bicycles designing full-suspension mountain bike chassis systems.
The combined knowledge fromthese industries led to him foundingZero Motorcycles (originally calledElectricross) in Scotts Valley (near SantaCruz), California, in 2005. He mated apowerful 23-horsepower brushed motorto a battery essentially made fromcordless drill batteries and what couldbe described as a hybrid of motorcycleand mountain bike technology for thebike itself. The original Zero X could run40 miles or up to two hours off-road,weighed about 140 pounds, and had3-inch-wide motocross-style knobbytires. In Easy mode, it smoothly accel-erated to about 30 mph. In Sport mode,it accelerated instantly, hitting over 30mph in two seconds and topping out atalmost 60 mph. It could toss you ontoyour butt in short order, but it was ablast to ride! The 3-inch tire width felt abit anemic at that speed.
It was back in 2008 when they werejust starting to ramp up production andlooking for investors and sales that Nealwanted to create an image that playedup the environmentally friendly aspectof the bikes. His idea was to find alocation that said "nature," along witha model who looked the part of MotherNature herself. Legendary professionalskateboarder Judi Oyama was a friendof mine, as well as Zero's creativedirector, and one day she called on meto help them realize the epic version ofthis vision.We found model Suzanne Lyonsfrom San Diego via an agency, Judifound us a location in Temecula (south-east of Los Angeles), California, andbooked a ticket to fly down to SouthernCalifornia for the shoot. I loaded up mytruck and picked her up at the airport,and we drove out to Temecula. It was acool location surrounded with mustardflowers, a dirt floor to shoot on and ahill overlooking the town below.Since a barefoot Mother Nature ina flowing dress would be ill-advised toactually wheelie across the dirt, I set upthe bike on several of my equipmentcases to have it sit up in a wheelieso she could look like she was ridingone, and I could concentrate on light-ing her and the bike and getting goodexpressions out of her. At the very end,I said to throw up her hands like shewas riding a bucking bronco, and thatlast frame was the one. I shot some

Being a good mother is quite hard. We all want the best for our children and grow daily with our tasks. For our children, we are the safe anchor, we are the roots and give them wings. This requires responsibility, stress resistance, assertiveness and so much more. At the end, it is not a balancing act that we should forget. If you only have a child and a family to manage is already a lot to do, then if a job comes in the game, it becomes almost a tightrope.
I would like to introduce you to the Femibion campaign, which supports mothers with their careers. Because for many, the decision to get a child is not so simple. Frequently, the fear is that the career is over or having a child brings disadvantages to a job. Unfortunately, fears are not unfounded. Femibion wants to show that maternity is not a drawback in the professional life, but a plus. No other job requires as much dedication and knowledge as motherhood from the first day, and mothers are able to take responsibility, make decisions, and develop new skills. The whole thing even with not much sleep. Why should mothers then be worse off than colleagues without children? Of course, children are sometimes sick and mothers will remain with the sick child, but if mothers do a good job, this should be easily acceptable.
Many women do not mention their maternity leave, and only around 8% mention the skills they have acquired during maternity. Why? Many women think that it could adversely affect their career. But this is not always the case! There are employers who appreciate the skills of their employees who have experienced as a mother. Time management, prioritizing, organizing and rapid decision-making are always an advantage at work.
When I got pregnant, I was in the last train of my studies and got my diploma with a small miracle in my stomach. Unplanned and always desired. A pretty good time as I find, because now as a mom, I can start to work and I am quite optimistic that this is working well. I am fortunate to be able to earn my money with my blog, so I was able to sit back and relax in the first months. However, something has changed, because sometimes I had to attend events to talk about them and there was now a little baby. At the beginning, I was unsure how to combine motherhood and my work. At the end, it was easy. Little N. was a sugar-sweet baby, 90% happy and always smiling. I could easily take him to jobs and he liked it. But when Little N. became more mobile and wanted to experience more, he was no longer quite as enthusiastic about the events and my mother or other relatives had to take care of him. Since these events are not happening too often, this has never been a problem.
But when Little N. is going to the daycare by the end of the year, I would like to look for a job in the marketing area as I studied for it. Of course, I am afraid of this step. I spent 20 months with my son at home, took care of him every day and he was the center of my daily life. But we must grow, grow in our tasks and learn to let go. I would like to offer my child something, I want to make a career and still be the best mother that my son can wish for. I think we can do this, I have already completed internships during my studies and was a student. I have great work and lots of passion. Not only the passion of a mother but the passion of a woman who wants to achieve something. I think mothers have much more bite and know exactly what we want. We do it not only for us, but for our children, and when we are successful and happy, our children too.
In friendly cooperation with Femibion

Commentary: Recession and retail don't mix well
At the stores, it looks like any holiday shopping season.
Halls in Crown Center is decked out in wreaths and ribbon, and its dress racks send the message that, somewhere out there, people are partying in style. Costco is lit up with oversized decorations. Wal-Mart offers a way to "deck the halls for less," starting with artificial Christmas trees as low as $25.
But this isn't just any holiday shopping season, and no amount of faux cheer can make it so. This is a recession Christmas, and we're all going to have to figure out how to deal with it.
Every Christmas comes wreathed in irony, for those inclined to consider how a holiday celebrating a birth in a manger morphed into a shopping free-for-all. But this year the paradoxes are especially plentiful.
Just for starters:
Deals are rampant, but many shoppers aren't impressed. A Gallup Poll found that consumers planned to spend an average of $616 on gifts this year, down more than $200 from last year and the lowest projected holiday spending in the 10 years Gallup has posed the question. Another survey, by the American Research Group, puts planned spending on holiday gifts at $431.
Retailers are desperate for business so they're … cutting back on service. Because of layoffs, more people are available for seasonal work than in years past. But partly because of layoffs, merchants fear sluggish sales, so they're hiring fewer workers.
Prices are eye-poppingly low — think $499.99 for a 32-inch high-def TV at Costco; think winter gloves and scarves for $1 at some of the Old Navy stores — but we're told that may be a bad thing. Unnaturally low prices could spell deflation, which discourages business growth and puts people out of work.
Such are the contradictions wrapped up in a recession Christmas.
But we've been living in a contradictory world. Has it ever made sense that the health of the economy depended on people spending themselves into a sick situation?

Black & Blooms Turns 1/
It's bonkers to me that yesterday was the one year anniversary of when I set Black & Blooms live. What started as just a lil creative outlet and simply a way to get my photos off my computer and out into the world, has turned into this amazing community where I've met some of the most talented individuals, many of whom are now good friends. The past year has had its ups and downs as I've navigated this blogging world that I really had zero clue about starting out - mostly ups though, and it's all thanks to people like you, who take time out of your day to follow along and read my posts or follow my journey on Instagram, always leaving me the sweetest messages and making me feel so supported - I'm very thankful to you for that! I wanted to share a few things I've learned this past year, and tips for anyone who's been thinking of starting their own blog.
1. Figure out who you are & what you're about, then stay true to it. Let's be honest, there are a ton of bloggers out there, and the number is rising every day. And you know what? That's awesome. But it also means that now more then ever, we need to know exactly who we are and be un-apologetically that. What lights you up? What do you have to say? Why do you want to say it? For me, it started with my blog's name. It took me a while to figure out what I wanted to call this site - I knew it had to give a hint as to what sort of content I create. When it finally popped in my head I thought, duh - that's it. I love wearing black and plants/flowers are my jam. Black & Blooms!
2. Know your worth, then add tax. Starting out as a blogger can be very exciting. All of a sudden, brands start reaching out to you to give you free products. And who doesn't like free goodies? But they may also have certain asks of you in regards to posting about that product - that's the trade off, as brands usually will want something in return for free gifts. I've thought of a good chunk of the past year as an internship in the blogging world. I did work for free in exchange for the experience and connections I made with brands while I grew my following. I found it very valuable, and looking back wouldn't change a thing. But there comes a point when you can't keep working for free, and when you reach that point, don't be afraid to tell brands that you charge for posts! You're worth it, believe me. And if they tell you they don't have a budget for paid posts or try and low-ball your rate, it is 100% ok to politely turn down the gig. Shooting sponsored posts on Instagram can take hours - finding the location, setting up and styling the scene, taking photos from different angles, setting up a different scene when the first one doesn't work out how you planned, uploading all the photos to your computer, editing through them and picking the best shots, downloading them on your phone, planning what day/time you're going to post, doing any last photo edits on your phone, researching the best hashtags for your post, and thinking up a caption. Sure, it's all fun and I enjoy all of it - but it is work, and people deserve to get compensated for the work they do!
3. People are going to steal your work - and you have to learn to live with that. This was an extra hard learning experience for me, and I'm actually still struggling with it. I don't want this to be the norm, but unfortunately it's the reality of the situation. As amazing as the Instagram community is, there is a really serious problem of people taking the work of others and posting it on their own feed with no credit. And let's be clear, crediting "Pinterest" or any other site/account that is not the direct creator/photographer of that image, is NOT ok and not accurate crediting. Same goes for reposting a photo and tagging the creator in the photo itself, but not the caption of the photo. Or burying the creator's handle after 30 hashtags and bunch of spaces, where no one will even see it. I can't tell you how upsetting it is to see a photo you worked so hard to create end up floating around online without accurate crediting, or even worse, someone else taking credit for the image. It amazes me how many brands and really big accounts with 100k+ followers do this! I do think a lot of it is ignorance, and people not really empathizing with others in this regard. They see a pretty picture that they like and want to share it with others - I get that. But I think everyone has to understand that there is a person behind that image who worked hard to create it, and they deserve to be recognized for their work. Unfortunately, you can't police the whole world and people are going to do what they want, so you do have to learn to live with this - but I think if we each did our part to call out people who steal others images, it would create a lot of awareness and they may be less likely to do it again in the future.
4. It's called "social media" for a reason - be social! Before I started blogging and taking my Instagram seriously, I was definitely NOT social on social media. I interacted with my close friends and family, but that was about it. It would have been crazy to me to ever comment on a stranger's photo, or "like" a pic from someone I didn't actually follow or know. But once I broke out of my shell and started communicating with other people on the platform, that's when it really started coming alive for me. That's the beauty of the Insta community - we may live in different cities or even on different continents, but we're connected through our imagery and words - so get to know each other! Let people know when you love their photo, it's always appreciated and could blossom into an actual friendship - I know from experience. I've made such wonderful connections through this platform, and it can start with just a simple pic comment to spark conversation.
5. Don't compare yourself to others, and have FUN! I know this is a super obvi thing to say, but believe it or not it's the most important thing to remember. It's easy to get stressed out or discouraged about your growth and following, or compare yourself to others - but all that crap is just not worth it. The competitiveness that can come out in the social media world is not only unhelpful, it's unhealthy. Wouldn't it be so much easier to celebrate each others achievements, rather than compare ourselves to other people? Wondering, "Well, why didn't I get that opportunity she did??" or "How did she grow her account so much faster than me??" or "How did she get that many likes on her photo??" does nobody any good. We're all on a different path, using social media in different ways and working at different speeds. Focus on you and doing your best work, creating photos and content that you love and are proud of is key - I have to remind myself about this often! At the end of the day, you should be having fun and enjoy the process.
This is probs the most word-heavy post I've ever done! I think fitting for B&B's 1 year anniversary - haha! I'd love to hear your thoughts on anything I've talked about here - feel free to also email me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any questions or just want to say hi. I love chatting with all of you! Thanks for being here, and happy Friday :)

Scientists at the University of Santa Barbara California have developed a method to safely administer drugs to the placenta without crossing over to the fetus, according to a published study in Science Advances journal.
With roughly 10 percent of pregnant women experiencing complications due to placenta malfunction, this new method could help prevent pre-term inductions and allow fetuses to develop in the womb while healing the placenta.
The technique involves using peptides, which have been used in research to target cancerous tumors without damaging other healthy cells, to target the placenta instead. In the study, growth hormones were sent to the placentas of mice using nanoparticles coated with these peptides. Remarkably, there were no changes in size to normal fetuses but the hormones did cause smaller fetuses to grow and there was no residue of the drug left in the mother or any trace of the drug in the fetuses.
According to Lynda Harris, the lead author of the study from University of Manchester in England, currently only one drug is considered safe for pregnant women, and that hasn't changed in 20 years. Science News Journal reports that this new method could allow for the safe use of many life-saving drugs and holds the possibility of one day avoiding premature births while treating complications that occur in early pregnancy.

I'm really friggin tired. Like, REALLY tired. Like fall on your face, fall asleep at the wheel, drift off while sitting on the toilet tired. And all I seem to do is complain about it. "How are you?" people often ask me these days. "I'm doing really well. But I'm tired." Everyone assures me it's to be expected and I'm sure it is. But wow. I have not experienced this in my life...at least not for long periods of time.
But, I am actually doing really well! I'm excited and happy and a little in shock too. I still forget sometimes that there will actually be a baby in our lives in the next couple of months or so. And not just a baby...but a baby that will grow up!! It's all so very exciting. I have so many hopes and dreams and well wishes for this little one. I want him or her to have every possible chance at reaching their highest potential. In everything they do. It's a strange feeling to know that we will be completely responsible for this little human. I feel so honoured and so deeply, deeply grateful to have this opportunity.

The Final Stretch
I'm officially into the third trimester! Time is flying by even more now. It's very hard to believe that a baby will be part of our lives in about 3 months! We have most of what we need. We are waiting to pick up the car seat even though we already know what one we want. I think that's about all we are missing at this point. Oh, and we need to pick up the home birth supplies in the next couple of months - no huge rush on that.
The renos have been going on for a week now. The major work is done so the next week should be finishing up smaller jobs and getting the painting done. Yay!

40 TV Shows That Were Canceled Too Soon. We love new shows as much as the next person, but to get those shows, we have to see some cancelations. Some shows, we think it's about time that they get the ax. They've been on TV for years and years. Take a look at The Simpsons, just as an example. Sure, it uses current life events, but the storylines have run their course. Instead, we could have a refreshed show that features new characters, new situations, and something a little more…new.
That being said, we think networks made some pretty horrible decisions sometimes. TV shows that should have done well, or would have done well, got the ax after a single season or two. Usually, the reason is that the show didn't get high enough ratings or not enough people tuned in, but here's the thing: it can take time for a TV show to grow. Not every show will start out a major hit. We can't all be Breaking Bad, okay? Heck, even Breaking Bad had a hard time getting on TV, and now, it's one of the best out there!
Before we go off on a tangent, lets circle back. Despite low viewership, some series had the potential to be great, and we've compiled a list of the ones that fit that bill. These are shows that should have been given plenty of seasons but got axed after one or two. Maybe some good-hearted streaming service should think about bringing these series back?

So we don't just like stripy things, we are also partial to the simplicity of a single line. And we like things lining up. And when it comes to socks, where do we even start... The amount of indvidual socks that we spend hours trying to match to other individual socks... Just the thought of having some form of knowing straight away we found a pair was too good to miss. And how stylish would our feet look around those friends houses who insist on 'shoes off'!
Anyway, the sock idea was a no-brainer as soon as we had it. And it got us thinking what other things could show their togetherness by means of a single line...
Socks and pillow cases are available in our shop.

Giancarlo showed up after breakfast wearing his American Patriotic red white and blue suspenders. There was much discussion, and hand waving as we discussed our route. Giovanni's wife Rossana made a point with her hands while Giancarlo checked Google on his iPhone.
Then we stepped out- "Like my suspenders?"
I liked his bike a BMW 650 Dakar.
Giovanni and Rossana rode their BMW R1200RT while my wife and I rode our rented R1200ST. First stop, of course was for coffee -espresso for the hard core and cappuccino for the weaker riders...and a big cream doughnut for me because it looked too delicious to waste on some stranger other than me.
We pulled up in the middle of a wedding reception, our first marital faux pas of this particular Saturday. "Quick! Get a picture of their behinds!" Giancarlo told the photographer in the group, nothing if not obliging.
Hmm, we don't need no stinking GPS.
We got there and we knew we were there when we found a parking lot filled with tents selling the inevitable...
...MacDonald's? Hell no, but...
...dust catchers of course!
Line up for the bus and off we went crowded like sheep to the biggest most spectacular caves no one has heard of.
Photos were not permitted of corse but iPhone users, not my wide or Giovanni of course, clicked away at the back of the line. I got my pictures from the posters at the entrance. My wife took an English audio tour that failed to start so I was left to do a running translation from my mother tongue to her mother tongue.
It was a 90 minute two mile walk through a series of vast spectacular chambers, the largest 750 feet tall, larger than most basilicas in the world. There is a lot of moisture in these mountains in the Marche region and that combined with the caves gives rise to astonishing stalactite and stalagmite formations. The largest of those is said to be 70 feet long hanging from the ceiling. It was absolutely fantastic. But no photos, damn them and damn me for being a rule follower.
After our 68 degree hike we were debating the all important lunch.Then this dude interrupts our endless discussion and says simply follow me. So we did, with Rossana venting her ridiculous bourgeois fears that we were all going to get ripped off in these lonely mountains.
He led us up the canyon to his family home where we sat and ate,
...and ate well.
Pasta followed by sausage and lamb kebabs and potatoes and white wine and...
... panna cotta, custard as delicious as it was pretty.
Eating lunch is serious business in Italy.
Then it was onward and upward to our next riding appointment.
The mysterious Vespa museum of Pollenza, as unknown as the caves of Frasassi, and just as fascinating.

The Castle of Cagliostro/
Everything they used to say about summer TV remains true, maybe even truer. I don't know why, (tiny crowds? strange time zones? getting old?) but I haven't recaptured the enthusiasm with which I watched the Olympics four years ago, so that really doesn't leave very much on the telly that I want to watch.
Which is great, since it lets me work my way through an my back catalogue of films on DVD. In the past week that's included Boyhood, Bringing Up Baby and City of Hope. No common thread there. Last night it was The Castle of Cagliostro, a studio Ghibli comic romantic thriller which is sumptuous - clever, witty, beautifully drawn. It's like an old style adventure, with fights, clambering up castle walls, extreme goodies and baddies - but it also has subtle political touches, gorgeous jokes and a spectrum of lively, convincing characters. in short, none of the crude slushiness we think of as 'cartoony' - this is high quality entertainment for grown-ups. I'll be coming back to this one.

Sim Lian's full-year profit falls 71%
CONSTRUCTION and property development firm Sim Lian Group recorded a 71 per cent drop in net profit from a year ago to S$68.8 million for the full year ended June 30, 2016, it announced in a Singapore Exchange filing on Thursday.
Revenue for the fiscal year was down 52 per cent to S$570.9 million compared with FY2015.
The contribution of Sim Lian's property development division to the group's FY2016 revenue was 91 per cent lower at S$86.6 million, due to reduced contribution from its development property which was completed in February 2015.
Its construction division contributed S$430.0 million to revenue for the fiscal year, an 88 per cent jump from S$229.0 million in 2015, on the back of an increase in percentage of work done in FY2016 compared with the previous year.
Contract costs incurred fell 52 per cent to S$434.0 million, in tandem with the decrease in revenue.
Sim Lian also recorded foreign exchange loss of S$8.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, due to the revaluation of inter-company balances which are not denominated in the functional currency of the respective subsidiaries, the company said.
The group expects the operating environment for the property market to continue to be challenging for the upcoming year, with property cooling and loan restriction measures still in effect and expected global slow growth.
The company has proposed a first and final dividend of 1.5 Singapore cents, down from the 7.28 Singapore cents declared in the previous year.
The counter last traded at S$1.065 on Thursday.

The plumber was here late last night doing some final plumbing thing with the tub drain. I was out all day, but Jay and Keith finished almost all of the tiling — there is one last row of tile to put up in the toilet enclosure. I'm guessing they ran out of pieces. They say they'll be back tomorrow to finish tiling and grouting. Which I hope also means hooking up the toilet and installing the sink. And as soon as they are done, I will begin cleaning with a vengeance — and I just hope to God that they are done at a reasonable hour, because their early and my early are not the same concept. Maybe I'll just go to the St. Patrick's Day parade if they're not done soon enough for me to clean.

Ex-Steeler tight end Cunningham dies
Steelers notes
CLEVELAND — Bennie Cunningham, a versatile tight end who starred at Clemson and won two Super Bowls with the Pittsburgh Steelers, has died. He was 63.
The university says Cunningham died of cancer Monday at the Cleveland Clinic.
Cunningham played 10 seasons and caught more than 200 passes with the Steelers. He was named to their all-time team in 2007 in conjunction with the franchise's 75th anniversary.
Cunningham was an All-American in the mid-1970s. His seven scoring catches in 1974 set a school record for a tight end that stood for 37 years. Current Clemson coach Dabo Swinney called Cunningham one of the program's greatest players.
The Steelers drafted him with the 28th pick in 1976. He caught a touchdown pass in Pittsburgh's victory over Houston in the 1979 AFC title game and had two more receptions in a Super Bowl victory over the Los Angeles Rams two weeks later when the Steelers captured their fourth championship in six years.
He retired after the 1985 season and returned to Clemson, where he earned a master's degree in secondary education and served as a guidance counselor in Westminster, South Carolina.
Dupree option picked up
PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers have exercised the fifth-year option on outside linebacker Bud Dupree.
The Steelers made the announcement on Monday, three days before the start of the draft. The move will keep the 24-year-old Dupree under contract for the 2019 season.
Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert says, "We're excited about where Bud can be in these next two years and we had no hesitation in making that move when we did it."
Pittsburgh selected Dupree with the 22nd overall pick in the 2015 draft. Dupree has increased his sack total in each of his three seasons, going from 4 in 2015 to 4.5 in 2016 to 6 in 2017 as part of a defense that set a franchise record and led the NFL with 56 sacks last season.
The decision to pick up Dupree's option will likely have a minimal impact on Pittsburgh's draft plans. The Steelers need help at inside linebacker, with Pro Bowler Ryan Shazier ruled out for the 2018 season while recovering from spinal stabilization surgery.

Ohio State responded to NCAA allegations of major violations by their football program by vacating all of its 2010 victories, including the Big Ten and Sugar Bowl championships.
However, their self-imposed punishment does not include a loss of scholarships or a ban on appearing in post-season games.
There's a problem with this though: Vacating wins is not a punishment. You can change the 'official" record books, but you can't rewrite history. Banners and trophies may go away, but everyone knows what really happened.
The teams that they beat don't get to turn those losses in victories. Changing the line on piece of paper hurts (and benefits) no one.
There's only two ways to punish an athletic department in any meaningful way. One is to take away scholarships and the other is to take away money. A bowl or TV ban hurts the pocketbooks. Scholarship hurt recruiting (which also eventually hurts the pocketbook.) To a big time athletic program, nothing else matters.
Now Ohio State thinks it can escape the biggest scandal in its history without suffering either of those fates? Good luck.
Yes, it's true that coach Jim Tressel, the man most responsible for the Buckeyes' current predicament, is gone and that hurts the program too. But he quit, he wasn't fired. He tried to cover up the violations committed by his players and even after it became obvious that something was amiss, the school tried to protect him.
(They've also agreed to pay his NCAA fine, which is an odd way to deal with the man who they are now blaming.)
The NCAA will see through this, of course, but it only underscores the ridiculousness of letting schools suggest their own punishments. (Which the NCAA can either accept or amend.)
They broke the rules, tried to cover it up, and basically took no action to make things right. So what's the harm in trying to get away with the most lenient punishment possible? The enforcement system is broken, but can anyone fix it?

North Korea seems to be opening up to the outside world under the rule of Choi Kim. However, his son, Choi Song, a top commander of the North Korean army, leads a coup that has the leaders of North and South Korea be killed. North Korea descends into isolation, and it is revealed that it has exported nuclear material to outside terrorist groups. In retaliation, North Korea is overrun by outside forces and Song goes into hiding, but the threat is not yet over; Song has access to nuclear missiles and threatens to use them on the outside world. Each faction in the country has its own agenda: China seeks to annex North Korea, and South Korea has the same goal in mind. The Allied Nations (a parody of the United Nations) seeks to restore peace, while the Russian Mafia seeks to profit from the instability. All four factions are fighting the North Korean military. The player must work with each faction in order to find Song. Written by Sam
