EAGLE LAKE — Mark Burdon has returned to coaching and will take over for Terry Drake at Jordan Christian this season. He has coached at Landmark Christian, where he produced several championship teams, Triumph Christian and Haines City during the past decade.
"It was an opportunity I thought would be great for me. I like a lot of things they are trying to do. I think I can help the program become better and I think if we work together, it will be something that will be special in a couple of years," Burdon said.
Jordan Christian had 18 players report for spring workouts, but with only two rising-seniors in the group and plenty of freshmen. Burdon expects the roster to grow to 25 in the near future.
"We are kind of in a rebuilding stage as far as kids. We are going to be young," Burdon said.
Here are five things to watch in Jordan Christian spring football:
Good news, bad news
The good news is Jordan Christian returns its whole offensive line with rising-sophomore Denard Smith (6-3, 280), who started all of last season, expected to anchor the front. The bad news is the position players are either new or were non-starters last season.
"The O-line is a plus, everyone is back. On both lines, we are pretty set," Burdon said.
Look for Jordan Christian to run a 5-3 defense with an attacking attitude. Burdon said when it comes to defense, he is really an old-school coach.
"We are coming after people. We are going to try to make you one dimensional and take away the run and make you pass. Last year, they got ran on. The way I coach, I believe you have to take one thing away from them and make them one dimensional. We are going to crowd the line of scrimmage in the spring game."
Offense is turning pro
Burdon plans to implement a pro-set offense with some I-formations from time to time. Both formations will feature standard three-receiver sets and some shot-gun snaps.
"We are going to try to keep it simple for the young players right now. We are not going to try to do too much too soon," Burdon said.
Two right-handed throwers are battling for the quarterback slot, freshman Quentel Bryant and sophomore Cougar Berger.
"Cougar is a guy in the pocket who can make some throws. He won't burn you with his speed or anything like that. Quentel is a different look. He can play slot receiver or tailback. He is one of our more-athletic kids on the team. He can get outside the pocket and run or throw. We have a different dimension with these two quarterbacks," Burdon said.
Asaiah Ford will line up at fullback, as well as linebacker, and rising-sophomore Dearvis Allen moves over from Lakeland and will play at running back.
"(Ford) has a good mixture of size and speed. He is not necessarily a downhill pounder, but he will run you over. He'll get after you, but he also has a little shake to him. He can be elusive. I am looking forward to seeing what he does this week against live competition. Allen will get a chance to touch the ball quite a bit Thursday night."
Burdon said the biggest goal for the spring session is to just build some discipline and things the correct way so the fall practices and season will run smoothly.
"The biggest thing I wanted to implement was some stability in the coaching ranks. They've had a new coach every year and I am hoping to put an end to that for a while," Burdon said.
Spring Game
Jordan is slated to play in a jamboree-style spring game at 6 p.m. Thursday at Orlando Orangewood Christian. Also playing are Lake Mary Prep and Cocoa Beach.
Jordan will face Cocoa Beach in the first quarter and Orangewood Christian in the second quarter with no live special teams. Each team will get two quarters of action.
Summertime News
Through the summer, Burdon said the team will work out twice per week from 4 to 6:30 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday. The Seahawks will also attend the University of Florida's O-line, D-line and specialty camps. They will also attend Florida International, Florida Atlantic, South Florida and Central Florida day camps in June.
The Seahawks also plan to compete at Bartow's Thursday night seven-on-seven scrimmages.
"We may make it up to Tallahassee, also. We'll see," Burdon said

text: Hello, I am faced with the dillemma that I'd like to get a top-spec MBP 15", however this would have to last for a really long time, since I have the once-per-lifetime ADC discount, and I don't have the $$ to upgrade again until after grad school. I will be using the computer to run extensive soft-synths, dual-booting to Windows to run bio/chem apps and games, and secondarily to run FCP HD and encode video (once in a while,) so pretty intense tasks. Sooo, should I go ahead and get a new MBP next week, knowing what is on the horizon, or try to milk my PB until WWDC in June? Another option, especially since my PB keeps failing, would be to get an inexpensive MB from amazon for now, then upgrade to the maxed out MBP when the next revision arrives, since I still have 11mo left on my ADC.... Still another option would be to get a refurb MBP CD1 from apple and then re-sell it once the next CD2.5/Centrino Pro arrives what do you all think?? Do the Applestore CD1 refurbs still have the rev A. noise/power issues?

EponicityThe Retreat division of Leaves and Lizards
Our Mission is to restore a more natural state of "being" by creating experiences where people can (re) connect with themselves, each other and nature in a safe non-judgmental environment.Equine Facilitated Learning encourage us to look within ourselves to find balance, regain strength, renew spirit and rediscover our power. Eponicity programs usually incorporate horses in some aspect. No need to be a horse lover to open the door to connection, just bring your curiosity!
Horses teach us to be authentic with ourselves and within our communities. The special horses at Leaves and Lizards will lead you to a place of peace and understanding. We offer multi-day workshops, riding treks and one day mini-workshops. Workshops are suitable for individuals, couples, corporate groups and families. No riding or horse experience is necessary.
Deborah Draves Legg and her husband Steve Legg left their life in the USA in 2006 and created Leaves and Lizards Arenal Volcano Retreat in Costa Rica. A 25 year career as a registered nurse prepared Deborah for the challenge of creating this healing retreat in Central America. Horses found their way into her life serendipitously after the move. Deborah is an Advanced Eponaquest Riding Focused and Power of the Herd Instructor In 2015, Sally Nilsson made the move from corporate attorney in London to a new life in Costa Rica. As a certified professional IPEC coach and Eponaquest Riding Focused and Power of the Herd Instructor, Sally partners with Deborah in designing and facilitating Eponicity retreats.

Cultural events are a special part of the experience!
We are honored to be part of the award winning documentary, "Freedom Tracks", directed by Leila Pages. The documentary explores human horse relationships and the capacity of the horse to help humans connect. Here is the trailer.
What to expect in a Costa Rica horse adventure:
The Horses: The Costa Rican horses, Costarricense de Paso also known as Criollo, are a combination of several Spanish horses (Barb, Andalusian, Arab) and the Peruvian Stepping Horse. This magical combination has created horses with a smooth, comfortable gait. They are fearless, sure footed, hardworking and extremely versatile. The horses at Leaves and Lizards are cared for and trained using natural/relationship based horsemanship techniques. We use Dr. Cook's Bitless Bridles. Options range from the highly spirited Criolla to low key Quarter Horses and anywhere in between. The riding style is Western. We will help you choose just the right horse. Maybe your horse will choose you! In Spanish it is called `Vinculo' ; it is an explainable bond between two souls. Join us in Costa Rica for the best horseback riding experience of your life! The Environment/Weather: Costa Rica has around 30 different micro-climates. Leaves and Lizards Retreat is located in the region of Humid Rain Forest. We are located on the Caribbean slope and our weather is wetter, the rain forest greener and denser than on the Pacific Slope. You may get wet on one or more of your riding days at anytime during the year. Temperatures are 80's in the day and 70's at night almost all year round. The Nature: You may feel like you have entered into the 'Land of Oz' during your journey. Our rides take you cantering across rolling hills, through rain forests, fording clear rivers, and trotting down isolated country roads through sleepy villages. Views from the hilltops are breathtaking. The Arenal Volcano dominates the vista, look the other way; you'll see 3 more volcanoes in the distance and across the Northern plains Lake Nicaragua shimmers on the horizon. You'll be sure to spot all sorts of creatures, including curious monkeys (without wings), happy sloths, dozens of species of flamboyant tropical birds, poison dart frogs and maybe even an ocelot or other wild cat-just to name a few! Your guides will teach you about the environment and how the flow of energy works in the complex circle of life in the rain forest. The Energy: There is something indescribable about the energy here. Some say it is a shift in consciousness. The real world slips away as you canter across rolling hills on forest edges. You find the Costa Rica motto, 'Pura Vida' (pure life) has a special meaning on the back of your horse. The Guides: Some rides include a bilingual naturalist guide and a local cowboy and horseman. Your guides will become fast friends and lifelong kindred spirits. They will offer you guidance and encouragement to improve your horsemanship skills and facilitate a Vinculo (special connection) with your equine companion. The Culture: The Costa Rican's call themselves Tico's. They are friendly, welcoming people who are proud of their country and are incredibility hospitable. Horses are a part of the culture and used for work on farms and ranches. Community events such as Rodeos, Topes (dancing horse parades), Cabalgatas (group cross-country rides) and Endurance Rally's are yearly events in many communities. Experiencing the culture and people of Costa Rica is an important element of the Eponicity experience at Leaves and Lizards Arenal Volcano Cabin Retreat.
Books about our horses by Dr. Rosalyn Berne.
"When the Horses Whisper" shows the capacity of horses to help us heal the human heart.
It expresses in human language what horses have to say when given the chance to speak. It is a story about the sacred bond between us, and the communication made possible when the horse-human relationship is based on love. Conversations with fifteen horses, most of who live and work in Costa Rica, are featured along with their photographs, capturing them as individual beings in service to humans on a shared evolutionary journey. This journey amounts to the "re-membering" of our whole selves in the wholeness of creation, especially the parts we split off, deny, and place in shadow because they are too painful. Horses, as the book shows, can help us see these lost parts, and call forth our courage to reclaim them. For the author, these included the loss of a newborn daughter, the mental illness of an adult son, letting go of a thirty-year marriage, and childhood sexual abuse. The story recounts the equine healing work that helped in reclaiming her authentic self. This book is testimony to the power of horses and equine healing work in transforming life's losses into a deeper human wholeness and a further communion with the non-human world.
Due to the smaller stature of Costa Rica horses, in general, we have a 250 pound weight limit.
A special thank you to all the professional photographers that have contributed photographs for this website.

I put this together quickly for the upcoming hero "Dragon Slayer." She is going to be a tank who gets more powerful when there are more enemy dragons and is tied to the Chapter 22 story.
Heroes start their lives as a document I write describing their lore, role in the story, visuals, and mechanics.For art, we then get a few different design sketches which we refine until we like the direction (which might get adjusted a bit more as we move into color and animation). After the Art is "final" the animators create keyframes for how the character should be animated, which then we iterate on with paint-overs on parts of the animation work in progress files.
Finally, VFX and sound are added.
Eventually the icons (which also have their art direction in the original doc) are done in parallel.
I love it great job !
Looking good. Not sure why, but her helmet reminded me of that cartoon with the Martian guy I watched as a kid. Think I queried mother as to why he had a hairbrush on his head. Kids!
Yes!!! You're awesome Cyber Pope!
Dig the art work and the process. I see she dyed her hair before the end of the process.
Thanks for sharing.
Roman legionnaire to me, but she does look like a strong woman and the shoulder armor looks awesome. Just from the title my first thought was a scarred veteran in dark battleworn armor, possibly using a ballista like the guy in Dragonsbane.
The legionnaires were definitely part of her inspiration. All four heroes in this chapter are partially inspired by myths from a few different cultures.
Here's a little more info about her:
All of my hero documents have a subtitle which either aims to be humorous or to reinforce the hero's core identity. Dragon Slayer's was: The HER-Culean Might of DragonSoul
Blessed by the Angels, this mythical hero defended the weak against evil dragons for years. She inspires her allies - protecting their energy. She is tenacious and fights resolutely at the front line with a buff that gets stronger when she fights more dragons. She is a strong female warrior inspired by Hercules and Greco-Roman Stylings.
HER-Culean, just my kind of humor
Kind of curbs my hopes of making Dragon LADY great again. =(
Any chance they are sisters ... separated at birth? lol
There's a connection between them in the world, but they aren't related genetically.
I still want to revitalize heroes who may have fallen behind the power curve.
Very cool to see some behind-the-scenes processes.
I am very curious about the people on the art team who actually draw/design the characters. Are you allowed to share names? I couldn't find them credited anywhere, though maybe I'm just not looking in the right places. Or do those people have the ability to create forum IDs and interact on here? As an aspiring illustrator, I am fascinated by the game design process.
I read this as "I want to bring back super pixie"
and I am thrilled
Snap dragon! He has scaled so very very badly.
Than change the orange skill from faith healer please.why should a angeldragon resurect heroes, when we have a faith healer that can do this better?I still hate his orange skill, it didnt function in the most game modi (expedition, kollo, fightpit, bosspit, ...) and is only less helpfull in the others.
But back to topic.
I love your work in progress and the new hero sounds good (shield / save energie).
Perhaps she and dragonlady can be twins:- The new gave a bonus against dragons.- Dragonlady give dragons a bonus.
After the art contest that judt finished, I started making some new heroes myself.One I planned as a dragon slayer was St George.
But I missed the old days of heroes being a bit more quirky, so I turned him into St Gorge. A fat crusader eating a chicken drumstick.
My concern and others seemed to have jumped on it is continuing to add heroes in our current environment. While obtaining and training new heroes is fun, playing with a usuable character that has never entered my lineup would be just as entertaining. Of the 60+ characters we now have, I'd say a good 20 have never been used outside of cannon fodder in the crypt.
Once you get past the vast number of useless toons, you have the double whammy of purple grind. I find it hard to work on underpowered toons due to the vast number of purple items needed to stay competitive with my current team. It seems to be a huge concern raised in multiple threads but never seems to be addressed.
Last but not least are the number of heroes still without legendary skills. This, paired with my first concern, can easily bring old toons to the forefront. Look at the benefit it gave to heroes like Dwarven Archer and Bone Dragon.
I feel the community would far benefit from these additions before more toons were added.
This might be out of topic but wasn't there suppose to be 4 divine themed hero as announced with ch 21?
Angelic avenger Bulwark angelTomp angel Fourth one is support hero?
Bulwark AngelTomb AngelAngelic HeraldAngel Dragon
Only first 2 are released so far
Two are available and the other two are enemies in chapter 21. Hope we get the angeldragon soon

ECU's Scott Montgomery Demands Changes Prior To WVU
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – There was an idea that East Carolina's program was improving under Scott Montgomery, that the Pirates' ship wasn't sinking quite as fast as indicated by losses in nine of their last 10 games.
But that goodwill was largely erased by a putrid performance in the opener against James Madison, when ECU gave up 614 yards of offense, including 410 on the ground in a 34-14 defeat. The new-look 4-2-5 set, designed to maximize the ability to control the line of scrimmage with better back end flexibility, was gashed for touchdown runs of 85, 80 and 70 yards, and now it appears the coaching staff has hit the reset button.
"I think the biggest deal is that I feel insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result," said Montgomery, embarking on his second season in Greenville. "We are not going to do the same things over and over. We will have changes.
"There are definitely some things that we have got to do differently. I thought some of our guys came out and competed at a high level with a lot of toughness and then I thought that some people could have played a lot better. Schematically, offensively and defensively, we were presented with the things that we thought we were going to be presented with and that's why it is especially disappointing that we didn't execute any better than we did."
East Carolina not only got ripped in the run game, but it failed to generate much on the opposite side of the ball until a third quarter switch from former starting quarterback Gardner Minshew to Duke transfer Thomas Sirk. It was assumed by many pundits that Sirk would win the job in preseason, and there was surprise throughout the ECU area when Minshew, a junior, was tabbed as the first-teamer in August. That lasted all of one half, as Sirk took over and connected on 21-of-35 passes for 210 yards – but also two interceptions.
Minshew completed just 7-of-18 passes for 81 yards with a pick, and neither was helped by a running game that managed just 70 yards on 30 attempts. ECU ranked 10th in the AAC last year in averaging just 132.4 yards per game, so there are clearly significant issues for Montgomery.
"Our first time starters at all spots struggled," Montgomery said. "I've got to do a better job of managing our emotions before and during the game. It was a poor performance. The lack of our run game on offense and poor red zone efficiency really started from the beginning. Defensively, we had 422 yards of rushing but we had five plays for 300 yards, and we talked about from the beginning about eliminating explosive plays.
The elimination of the explosive plays in the run game didn't happen because of our inability to tackle on the third level. We got out of gaps a couple of times, certain people got out of gaps. It was a collective team loss."
The schedule doesn't get any easier, with West Virginia in Morgantown and then Virginia Tech and AAC favorite South Florida at home. East Carolina's program is very familiar with WVU quarterback Will Grier, as Grier's father, Chad, was a back-up to Pirates' quarterback Jeff Blake for a season. Chad Grier then coached Davidson Day in Charlotte to four state titles – including multiple championships with Will at quarterback – in six seasons before resigning.
"West Virginia presents a new challenge on offense and they are led by Will Grier," Montgomery said. "People around here are familiar with the last name. The biggest deal is that you can't give guys like Will that many open spaces to throw the ball. You have got to put pressure on him. You've got to move him off the spot. I thought (Va Tech) moved him off the spot a couple of times but I thought protection in the interior for West Virginia was pretty good.
"(Grier) was able to stand in there and he's not going to miss shots. He might have missed two or three throws in the game, some crossing routs, one where he got out of the pocket and it was a deep post, but he's not going to be missing very many of those."
Montgomery also praised Justin Crawford, and his 106-yard performance on just 13 carries. In all, West Virginia amassed 592 yards of offense while averaging 6.7 yards per play.
"Crawford is probably one of the most elusive and strongest backs we have seen over the last couple of years," said Montgomery, a former NFL wideout and Pittsburgh Steelers receivers coach. "He is a really, really good football player and he has an array of weapons out there on the perimeter as well. That will be a challenge. Defensively they are three-three stacked with Kyzir White and Al-Rasheed Benton, which gives them the ability to get a lot of speed on the field and get from sideline to sideline, so we are going to have to be ready.
"But I don't doubt that there is some panic (with the ECU fan base.) I told the team, everyone on our coaching staff and the people that work on the field; don't blink. Smart decisions need to be made. We are making them and we will be back. I know what our problems are. We failed one day, and now we have a whole season in front of us and our guys will be prepared. But we are not going to blink. I'm not going to blink."

Edmonton (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada)
This photograph, taken on May 11 2009, was inspired by the photograph by Ernest Brown taken in 1912 from the approximately the same location (except that Mr. Brown photographed from the ground level - see the next photograph). Trees growing today do not permit to take the photo from the ground level so I had to take it from the roof of the University of Alberta Business Building (Stollery Center). Mr. Brown's photograph is just the next one here so you can compare them booth easily. Note that the path going up the slope immediately to the left of the wooden steps (1/3-rd width of the image from the left edge) seems to have existed already in 1912. The exact location from which to do the photograph was selected to align the first northern pillar supporting the High Level bridge with the dome of the Parliament Building, exactly like in the 1912 image (at that time the Parliament Building was under construction so the dome did not exist yet, the bridge deck did not exist yet either but the pillars were already finished). The right edge of the image is near the fourth pillar, like in the 1912 image.

This was an amazing shoot! Definitely one of the most unique shoots we've ever done. We shot Kelsey's senior pictures in downtown Rochester, Michigan with two every day outfits and then Kelsey put on a tutu and some combat boots . She's a great girl and we've had the privilege of working with her twice before. She was a senior model for us and then she was part of the Viviano flowers shoot. Kelsey is such a sweetheart and is always a joy to work with… she's just a little ray of sunshine and her mom Susan is fantastic too! Kelsey is going to graduate from Oxford High School and we wish her the best of luck in her future!

From Politico:
How much of a difference will this make for the House?
As it turns out, not much:
While the timing of his announcement was unexpected, Griffith's party switch will not come as a surprise to those familiar with his voting record, which is one of the most conservative among Democrats.
He has bucked the Democratic leadership on nearly all of its major domestic initiatives, including the stimulus package, health care legislation, the cap-and trade energy bill and financial regulatory reform.
He was one of only 11 House Democrats to vote against the stimulus.
[Emphasis mine]
Goodbye and good riddance, Rep. Griffith. Enjoy being part of the ineffectual, impotent Republican minority.
UPDATE: My question is, will Griffith be able to win reelection as a Republican?
I'll let the electoral history of Alabama's 5th Congressional district speak for itself:
UPDATE II: From Jonathan Martin on Twitter:
UPDATE III: Politico also found an NRCC attack ad against Griffith. You can watch it here, but I took screenshots just in case it gets pulled:

SPYDERCO TRI-Direction SHARPMAKER
A well liked with blade devotees about the word wide web, theSpyderco Sharpmaker($50 to $60) also is a approach for those that really feel at ease with some aiding tutorials. In such cases, you'll always be transferring the blade freehand, although the gemstones are maintained in the adequate perspective from a cheap structure.
The Spyderco is made up of plastic material plate with an assortment of slot machines into you area two triangular gemstones, placement them different methods based upon what kind of blade shaping you're trying. The instructions hand-operated records lots of possible choices. In addition there are slot machine games for two shield side rails primarily some rods to stop you from mistakenly reducing oneself. You traction the starting point with just one hands and secure the blade inside other. Then, having the continued blade wonderfully perpendicular on the family table, you design the blade in the gemstones and regarding all by yourself, undertaking almost a slow cutting up motions. You switch in between the kind of gemstones to the office either side for the blade.
Such as Lansky, the Spyderco is most effective to lesser kitchen knives. As a consequence of its multipurpose method and triangular gemstones, the Spyderco is perfect for stuff you wouldn't normally feel related to a sharpener like taking off the burrs at a Phillips scalp screw driver trick, or providing the advantage to cable cutters.
WIREDThe most all-available practical on the lot. There isn't a great deal the Sypderco can't hone. Additionally has an attractive efficient circumstance.
TIREDNot as suitable for chief cook kitchen knives or larger sized cutlery. The instructions hand-operated depends substantially on cryptically little portraits.
Score: 6 using 10
LANSKY Luxurious Precious stone Set
TheLansky kitis not necessarily produced specially for honing house kitchen knives. It's crafted additional for pocket sized kitchen knives, razors and devices. Consequently, the Lansky is quite likely going to arrive at Sears than any local house give retail outlet. Nevertheless, it will get the task finished.
The Lansky performs much the same way the advantage Guru does it continues to keep the blade kept in site because you relocate the gemstone for a resolved direction across the blade but it's substantially, much easier. You maintain the assemblage with one particular fingers and golf swing the gemstone to and fro on the blade together with the other. The Lansky functions precious stone rocks in place of porcelain ceramic gemstones, where there are five totally different grits in your package.
The Lansky is undoubtedly the most convenient with the group I proven for honing small sized cutlery. I tried it to improve all of my budget kitchen knives, overly. It's also economical generally $90, but can easily be be seen at a lower price. The fundamental limit is it may only deal with close to about 8-" cutting blades, therefore if your blade is any larger than that (which chef's cutlery generally are) you'll want to look somewhere else.
WIREDFool-substantiation. A flexible sharpener that may take on many various cutlery and gear. Low priced.
TIREDOnly best for bank cutlery, paring kitchen knives along with quick cutting blades. Your knuckles occur relatively nearby the leading edge when you're zig-zagging the gemstones above the blade sort of questionable.
WUSTHOF Excellence Advantage Electrically powered SHARPENER
If you need a easy, no-hassle, no-muss method to develop cutlery, theWusthof Accuracy and reliability Benefit electric power sharpener($190) satisfies the expenses.
I'll confess to learning to be a jewel-sharpener purist. I changed up my nasal area once the Wusthof emerged, but once family listened to I found myself performing these testing and presented on top of the dullest, brittlest of rotor blades, I maintained returning to Wusthof's electrical device. After a couple of somewhat at the same time-substantially-ended up cutlery were being changed back in razor-well-defined cutting blades, I used to be transformed.
With that being said, I continue to favor rocks for my highly-priced, great-excellent cutting blades. The Wusthof isn't proceeding to supply you with the well refined advantage that continues a few weeks, but gentleman, could it move some unattractive cutlery into operating cooking area tools.
Anything of alert: Don't work one thing all night correctly, honing blade soon after blade throughout the daytime. It never ever in full stop on me, although the scent of melting plastic-type material managed at some point occupy the environment.
WIREDBrings kitchen knives rear from your lifeless. So basic and ultra powerful, it feels as though unfaithful.
TIREDItischeating, including your finest-stop kitchen knives are entitled to more effective.
WUSTHOF 2- AND 4-Point Hand held Blade SHARPENERS
Once you already possess no blade-honing machines and then you know you're not going to work with a material, acquire these.
Perhaps Wusthof's2-stageor4-stagehandheld sharpeners could be possessed for less than $30 at the most your kitchen provide retailers, and they're greater than not much.
As expected, you can get the things you spend money on. Often of the aforementioned could keep your rotor blades from starting to be dangerously uninteresting, but neither of the two will almost certainly make an advantage anyplace close how much the other devices examined on this site are designed for. And please be sure to don't pull your $200 carbon dioxide-metallic Japanese rotor blades by means of one of these brilliant.
These also are excellent gift items when you need friends and relations to cease turning up at the front door with purses abundant with plain kitchen knives.
WIREDCheap and well-designed. Easier for someone to use securely.
TIREDIncapable of creating the type of great-level of quality side you'll get by using a authentic natural stone.

After The League Turning Down Brentford's Move To Woking, Brentford Fans Are Now Trying To Get Hounslow Council To Help Aid Their Campaign For A New Ground In Hounslow
WALK FOR BRENTFORD After a traumatic week ,in more ways than one, it`s now time to drive forward the WALK FOR BRENTFORD on Sep 29th. The aim of the walk is basically to kick Hounslow Counsil`s arse and also raise awareness to the local public that BFC is a club that desperately needs more support to solve most of its many problems. If anyone can help out at the next 2 home games handing out leaflets/selling T-Shirts please contact either myself , Luke or Andy V. We`re still short of a couple of stewards on the day - there isnt much to this role, its basically just a police requirement. You`ll just have to wear a training ground-style bib!! Please support the walk & spread the word. We will all look silly if it aint a success - please back the event. Contrary to some rumours, it isnt a pro-Feltham thing. It is aimed solely at raising awareness to the club`s problems & letting the local council know that its local pro club - something they should be proud of - is in trouble & needs help one way or another. The walk starts from Harvey`s in Hounslow High St from midday on the 29th, arriving @GP @130 after doing a lap of the ground. We need to raise the media profile on this ASAP. Anyone who can help with this, please get in touch. Let`s make the WALK work for the Bees..... PJ *****An Interview With Lead Man Pete Johnston By Jonno***** What is the objective of the 'Walk'? PJ: Really it has 2 aims; The Walk is designed to highlight the club`s present plight. We are a club in trouble. However if we the fans can raise the profile of the club locally and increase attendances at GP, then it would solve many of the immediate problems. We have a fine side at Brentford, but not enough supporters - we need to get the message out to as many people as possible that the club is in urgent need of more support. Also, most Bees fans are totally fed up with Hounslow Council`s apparent apathy towards the only professional football club within its borough. BFC is an asset the council should be proud of and eager to assist, yet they seem unable to even sit down with BFC and discuss a new stadium or redeveloping GP, either of which is necessary in order for BFC to have a prosperous and secure future. I dont think anyone thinks BFC are blameless as regards this stalemate, but it appears to us that the council must shoulder most of he blame. This Walk will hopefully provide the wake-up call that the council clearly needs. How many people have been involved in organising the 'Walk' and what have their jobs been? PJ: BIAS are sponsoring the event, they have subsidised the cost of the flyers and the new banners which will be on show on Saturday. There has been probably around 20 people involved in the planning of this event, some who were involved heavily with the No To Woking campaign, but others who have joined in since. We have all had different duties; Liaising with the police and attending a meeting with them to confirm our plans. Sorting out the wording of, printing etc of leaflets/banners/T-Shirts/Posters Dealing with press releases to the local press and generally gaining publicity locally. Internet publicity/National TV & Radio/ Ceefax / Teletext. Organisation of the route itself, plus distributing our flyers at games, selling T-Shirts etc. Some other roles also , which do not spring to mind immediately, but there have been a lot of people committed to making the Walk work, so let`s hope it does! Will there be any community figure heads(Mp's, Mayors) or well known fans attending the walk? PJ: The former Mayor of Ealing, David Bond, will address the audience in Braemar Road at the end of the Walk, via a loud hailer. Russell Grant has also lent us support but is unfortunately unable to attend the event. Will there be any national press at the walk? PJ: It is sometimes difficult to arouse national interest for a club such as ours - some of them seems to think the football world starts and finishes in the premiership. A couple have shown interest and are welcome, but more reliable are the local papers who i`m sure will take a big interest. There will be a a couple of TV camera crews present. ITV Sport and Channel 5 will be present, the latter shooting a piece for its "Jonathan Pearce Football Night" show. A couple of local radio stations have also shown some interest. How many people do you hope will join the 'Walk'? PJ: Very difficult to say. Hopefully a few hundred, but who knows. The coffin which made its debut at Woking will again be on show to highlight the serious situaution looming at Griffin Park. It is intended for the Walk to have a bit of a carnival atmosphere, but we need to raise awareness and felt this was a good way to achieve this aim. Hope to see you there!

Dearest DJ,
(Sigh). You're the cutest. I am biased of course, being your aunt and all, but I have it on good authority from all of the people that I insist look at photos and videos of you regularly, that you are WAAAAY up there on the cute scale. Maybe they're just being nice, but how could anyone not get sucked in by those eyes and that grin and those luscious baby-fat rolls?
I like thinking about how much fun we'll have when you're a little older and we can do things together like go to the zoo and the park and make big huge messes with paint and mud-pies! I know that after that, there will come a time when no matter how hard I try, I won't be someone you want to hang out with anymore because you'll realize that I'm…old. To you anyway. Because you'll be a teenager. During this period of our lives, when I am the least-cool (second only to your parents) and you cannot possibly voluntarily be seen with me in public; I'll try to remember my own teenage years. Instead of foolishly attempting to pick out cool music, clothes or educational games for you – I will give you cash and gift cards at birthdays and holidays. This I do solemnly swear. But for now, I'm going to give you the most ridiculous outfits I can and take as many pictures as I can and eat up all of your cuteness and continue to force coworkers, strangers and friends to agree that you are an above-average baby. This I do solemnly swear.
I love you dearest DJ!

As part of our commitment to the development of the individual, scholars in the Wings To Fly program participate in an intensive leadership and mentorship program throughout their secondary school education.
This culminates every year in an annual congress that brings together all Wings To Fly Scholars. Known as the Annual Education and Leadership Congress, the two-week session at Kenyatta University is the highlight of the leadership, mentoring and social transformation of the scholars under the Wings To Fly program. During the forum, the students get the opportunity to hear from, interact with and draw inspiration from leading luminaries from an array of fields including among others academia, the IT sector, media, civil society, government and captains of industry. The scholars also have an opportunity to renew their bonds and receive academic mentoring from big 'sisters' and 'brothers' who are scholars of the Equity Bank University Sponsorship Program.

We need a government with a credible foreign and defence policy. The atrocities being carried out in Iraq by Islamic State, the conflict and rising tensions in Ukraine and the ongoing conflict in Gaza, are just the latest examples to expose the void in government thinking. The abdication of leadership is staggering.
The United Nations estimates that around 30,000 people, followers of the Yazidi faith, are still trapped on Sinjar Mountain, where they scrambled to escape slaughter from fanatics who despise their religion. Thousands of Christians – and Muslims too – have also had to flee their homes rather than face execution. The ancient order of the Middle East, where minorities coexisted and lived in communities ages old, is being swept away and, as Douglas Alexander has highlighted recently, in the case of Iraq this is happening in a bloody and violent fashion. Tensions have been rising further in Ukraine over a controversial aid convoy, while battles – representing the next chapter in Russia's power games – and the civil war there continue.
The government's response has been reactive and well behind events. The rise of Islamic State cannot have been a complete surprise given its role in Syria as that conflict evolved. Perhaps the government hoped the problem would go away. It has not. David Cameron may be on top of his brief on foreign affairs but that counts for little if he does not exercise some leadership or if he is incompetent when he does. The coalition defence policy is now even further discredited, as we look to move more forces to Nato's eastern borders and now are deploying forces in and over Iraq once more, all with a military we are still depleting. Little is said about encouraging a durable peace in the Middle East. We really do seem to be echoing the Baldwin years, reluctant to face the reality of a worsening international situation while recovering from economic depression.
Yet the United Kingdom has a duty, with others, to take a bigger lead in the international response to security and humanitarian concerns, for a number of reasons. These include the urgent requirement to help people in need, the risk of terrorism at home, and our responsibilities that come with being a permanent member of the UN Security Council and leading nation in Nato and the European Union.
Despite initial assurances that we would avoid military intervention in Iraq, we are now dropping aid to refugees, reportedly making refuelling available for United States aircraft, sending 'reconnaissance' Tornados and considering providing Chinook helicopters to provide aid or evacuate people. That represents quite a commitment already, in terms of logistical support and people involved, and there is a real risk of mission creep. That is not to say that military intervention would be unjustified (if we support recent US action we have accepted its necessity anyway), simply that we ought to be clear about what the UK is doing and why. If we are able to help stop slaughter, we should – taking lessons from the west's regret at not doing more to stop genocide in Rwanda and massacres in former Yugoslavia in the 1990s and learning from the terrible errors of the Iraq war.
The first move should be a huge increase in humanitarian assistance. Any direct use of force would be a big step. Force should only ever be used in the last resort, within a moral framework for morally justifiable aims, and when it is clearly the lesser of evils, since it is a matter of life and death and comes with great risks. It should pass key tests, as I highlighted in the recent case of Syria.
While the coalition yet again scrambles to revise its defence policy on the fly, Labour should also do some work. Recent developments need to be factored into our shadow defence review. This needs to incorporate a much greater consideration of the threat from extremism and from the reluctance of Russia to respect international norms and boundaries. The review also needs to focus on how waste can be reduced from the defence budget, to enable better support and equipment for personnel in our armed forces, since the scope for increasing the budget is limited. Finally, we have to be clearer about what sort of country we want to be in the world.
If we want to be a country that retains the option to deliver humanitarian aid and use force, we need both the means to do so and national debates and consensus about when it is necessary. However, a more proactive foreign and defence policy in the first place would help reduce the occasions when we are faced with the most difficult of decisions. This should be Labour's aim.

Keeping your home or business secure is more possible than ever before. With modern advancements in security systems, including access control systems, you can have almost full control of who enters your property, when, and how they do it. Check out these top five advanced features of 2016 access control systems:
- Biometric screening —Like something from a 1950s sci-fi film, biometric screening takes the away the potential security threat of lost and stolen access cards. Biometric screening is the process of allowing access to a commercial building by scanning fingerprint and other biological identifiers. This is a virtually glitch-free process.
- Mobile — New access control systems can often be controlled right from your mobile device. They are integrated for mobile app use, allowing you to lock doors, remove access, monitor movement, and more. Whether you are home or on the road, you can feel the security of accessing your business' security system from anywhere you have service.
- "Smart" video monitoring — Security cameras have been around for a while, but some 2016 cameras have a "smart" sensor option. This means that any time an alarm is tripped, the cameras in the area will automatically re-focus on the alerting area. Catch intruders, discover faulty processes, and more.
- Reporting — Modern access control systems can tell you who is entering your facility, when they come and go, and other normal business tracking functions. In addition, your 2016 system can tell you when someone attempts to gain access that doesn't have proper authorization to do so.
