2014 Annual Literacy Leaders Award Winners
The Annual Literacy Leaders Awards will be presented by the USC School of Library and Information Science (SLIS) tonight to individuals and/or groups that have had a statewide impact on literacy in South Carolina. Their contributions include:
- Developing and implementing innovative and creative approaches to literacy education
- Establishing models of best practices in literacy education
- Providing service to underserved groups and communities
- Providing funding and support for these kinds of programs
- Making other statewide contributions deemed appropriate by the Committee
Call Me MISTER
Call Me MISTER (Mentors Instructing Students toward Effective Role Models) is an organization that has developed and implemented innovative approaches to literacy education, established best practices in literacy education, provided services to underserved groups and communities, and provided funding and support of these kids of programs.
The Call Me MISTER program at Clemson University began in 2000 with the goal of placing more male African American elementary teachers from diverse cultures and backgrounds in the classroom. The program has graduated 150 MISTERs who are teaching in SC schools.
This program focuses on love of reading and learning with an emphasis on math and literacy skills and reading recovery. The core classroom philosophy is that every child has qualities to be developed. In addition to the classroom, MISTERs work with after school programs, volunteer in the community, and work with academic coaches each week.
The program has expanded to include 17 other universities and technical colleges in SC and programs in 7 additional states.
Dr. Dianne Johnson
Dr. Johnson, a member of the USC English Language and Literature Department, has spent the last 20 plus years teaching, reading to children, and writing books to encourage reading and literacy—not just for children, but for everyone. Her love for words and telling stories through books has inspired hundreds of children in elementary schools throughout the state.
Dr. Johnson's pen name is Dinah Johnson. Her book that celebrates the color black and its magic and fun—Black Magic—teaches us all about the positive aspects of the color black. Her book that celebrates the beauty of African American hair—Hair Dance—inspires children to love their hair. All Around Town: The Photographs of Richard Samuel Roberts is a picture book of the African American community of Columbia in the 1920s and 1930s while Quinnie Blue and Sunday Week celebrates family relationships. Sitting Pretty: A Celebration of Black Dolls is a collection of poetry for each doll in Dr. Johnson's personal collection. Each doll is named for people in her life and the poems highlight their personalities. The Best of the Brownies' Book is Dr. Johnson's anthology that includes pictures of what life was like for young African Americans in the early 20th century. Her writing teaches history and explores current issues that encourage young people and their families to read and learn.
Literacy Volunteers of the Lowcountry
For some forty years, Literacy Volunteers of the Lowcountry (LVL) has been at the forefront of the effort to provide the citizens of greater Beaufort County with reading, writing, and speaking skills essential for success in the family, the workplace, and the community. The organization has dedicated itself to creating awareness of the enormity of the literacy challenge in the area; to providing leadership in its service area and with other organizations offering literacy programs elsewhere; and to offering substantial instruction and other programs to the community.
Beaufort County, one of the wealthiest and best educated county populations in the state, has 11% of its population who lack basic prose literacy skills (National Center for Education Statistics, 2009); neighboring Jasper County has 27% of its population similarly challenged. Nearly 20% of Beaufort County's school population is Latino.
From its beginnings in 1973, LVL has aggressively confronted the need for improving the literacy skills of the community. There are now programs that are designed to serve a number of particular segments of the community including basic education programs for adults, preparation for US citizenship, education for English for speakers of other languages and workplace literacy programs.
The Inaugural Peggy Parish Prize
The Peggy Parish Prize honors individuals who have made a personal impact that increases child literacy in South Carolina. Two Prizes of $500 each will be awarded tonight.
Successful recipients will demonstrate their impact through activities such as:
- Implementing or expanding innovative programs or approaches to increase literacy in children
- Encouraging a child's love of reading through the involvement of a parent or caregiver
- Establishing or expanding programs for under-served community groups to increase child literacy
- Creating programs that successfully use Peggy Parish's notion of an "open window" timeframe to encourage reading in children
This prize is being offered in Peggy Parish's memory, to honor those who demonstrate the imagination, creativity and energy to help the children of South Carolina become life-long readers.
Peggy Parish Prize Winners
Ida Thompson
Throughout her professional career as a school library media specialist, consultant, and district director, Ida Thompson has displayed a compassion for the role of libraries and books in the lives of students. For over twenty-five years, she has coordinated the Richland School District One Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) Program, one of the largest multi-site programs in the country serving over 12,000 students and distributing over 40,000 new books annually. The RIF Program has received many national honors under her leadership and continues to enhance the district's literacy focus.
Engaging students requires effort, creativity and persistence. Ida has combined these qualities into a special event called Reading Rocks, which has become the district's annual literacy celebration. Under her leadership, the program has won numerous honors including a special commendation by the American Association of School Librarians (AASL). Reading Rocks provides free books to students, features nationally renowned authors and illustrators, local authors, vendors, and an array of interactive games, displays and community groups.
She is a staunch advocate for her district's school library media programs, securing additional funding to upgrade and maintain quality print and electronic book collections, ensuring that students have access to high quality reading materials at all levels.
She gives countless volunteer hours supporting a wide range of literacy events, including helping to coordinate the Statewide READ-IN, serving on the planning committee for the Annual S. C. Book Festival and Augusta Baker Celebration of Stories. She serves on the Richland Library Board of Trustees (where she serves as Treasurer) and is a two-time president of the South Carolina Association of School Librarians. She is a member of the American Library Association and AASL, and often assists with logistics for the Coretta Scott King Book Award Breakfast. She was recently elected Vice-President of the Columbia Writers Alliance and seizes every opportunity to promote reading and literacy events in her district and the community.
Ida believes that literacy is the great equalizer, opening doors for students to explore and grow. She embodies and displays the tenacity to keep a focus on reading, understanding that readers become leaders who can change the world.
Leslie Tetreault
Leslie Tetreault has been Manager of the Children's Room at Richland Library since 1986 and is known for her passion and fierceness when it comes to pursuing her mission to improve the lives of children through her work as a librarian. She strives to achieve this by giving children the best books; the best service and letting them know they are valued.
Under Leslie's leadership many innovative programs have been implemented. One of the most outstanding examples is All Around Town: All Around the State, a literacy initiative that gives at-risk third grade students a book and builds on that book to give them experiences that broadens their world in so many ways. This initiative began with the City of Columbia's program Together We Can Read that Leslie saw as an opportunity to really engage children in literacy. Through passion and persistence, she convinced the city and Richland School District One to expand this program. 2,000 children took buses to the Columbia Museum of Art where they met the author of All Around Town: The Photographs of Richard Samuel Roberts, Dinah Johnson, heard her present, toured the galleries and made art inspired by the photographs of Richard Samuel Roberts. The event was a huge success and it impacted the children greatly, giving them an autographed copy of a book, a chance to meet the author and an experience they will never forget. It also stoked Leslie's fire. To date, this program has continued to grow with more than 1,500 children from counties like Richland, Orangeburg, Newberry, Fairfield, Calhoun and Kershaw participating. These children have shared the impact of this program: "This experience makes me want to explore the world and the library" and most telling, "This is my first real book."
This program is innovative, encouraging and definitely connects with underserved communities.

Lexington educator wins S.C. First Novel Prize
The South Carolina Arts Commission and Hub City Press of Spartanburg announce James Edwin McTeer II of Lexington as the winner of the 2014 South Carolina First Novel Competition. McTeer's novel Grave Dust from the Islands Far will be published by Hub City Press and debut at the South Carolina Book Festival in May 2015.
McTeer will receive a $1,000 book advance from Hub City Press.
"Grave Dust from the Islands Far is a gorgeous fever-dream of a novel," said competition judge Ben Fountain. "McTeer's story of a young boy's quest achieves a narrative drive and depth that are rare in any novel, much less a debut effort. Grave Dust picked me up by the scruff of the neck and carried me along as powerfully as a novel by Pat Conroy or Toni Morrison. Yeah, McTeer is that good. I look forward to many more novels by this excellent young writer."
Born and raised in Beaufort, McTeer is the grandson of the late J. E. McTeer, whose 37 years as High Sheriff of the Lowcountry (and local witch doctor) served as inspiration for the winning novel. McTeer, 30, has worked for five years as a school media specialist and is currently the librarian at Polo Road Elementary School in Columbia. He lives in Lexington with his wife, but travels to Beaufort monthly "to soak in the marsh, the mud, and the salty air."
"As a native of South Carolina and a child of the Lowcountry, being selected as the winner of the South Carolina First Novel Competition is the highest honor I could receive as a writer," McTeer said. "My dream has always been to put a story on the page that would excite and entertain, and winning with a South Carolina tale makes the moment even more special."
Set in a fictional Beaufort County in the late 19th century, McTeer's novel "is a LowcountryHeart of Darkness, evoking the work of Karen Russell," said Betsy Teter, editor of Hub City Press. "We are thrilled to publish the enigmatic story of Minnow, who ventures deep into the voodoo world of the South Carolina Sea Islands in search of a cure for his father's mysterious illness."
"The First Novel Prize is South Carolina's premiere competition to discover new novelists in our state and launch their literary careers," said Sara June Goldstein, literary arts director at the South Carolina Arts Commission. "It is the only first novel competition sponsored by a state arts commission, and it presents a unique way to appreciate the depth and breadth of the work of our remarkable writers, and then get the best of that fine writing into the hands of readers."
The competition judge, Ben Fountain, won the 2012 National Book Critics Circle Award for his debut novel Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk. A native of North Carolina now living in Dallas, Fountain also is a recipient of a Pen/Hemingway award for a story collection, Brief Encounters with Che Guevera.
Other finalists in this year's competition were Matthew Boedy of Columbia, Mary Fancher of Greer, Scott Gould of Greenville, and David A. Wright of Travelers Rest.

Megan looks extra summerY with this shade on her lips! But orange lips are tricky. Like super tricky. Lol. I had to cover my natural lip color in order to make it work.
Orange gives you a bold pop without any of the harshness of a red. It's a great way to soften a makeup look without having to compromise the intensity of your lipstick.
Everything you need to recreate this is listed below. And if you have naturally dark lips, apply a concealer to them first! Aside from that, just have fun with it!

•Maybelline Dream Wonder Powder ( in a few shades darker than I normally get for contouring/bronzing)

SOUTH BEND – The assistance Chris Bailey received paying rent and utilities after dropping out of college helped the former foster child adjust to life on his own. Having someone available to talk with and to provide advice was even more valuable.
We would just hang out and talk about life. He helped me set goals, both short term and long term, said Bailey, 21, of his case manager. It really just helped me in growing up.
The help Bailey received came through Indiana's Collaborative Care program, which was started two years ago to help fill the gaps when youths turn 18 and age out of traditional foster care. The program arose from the Fostering Connections Act passed by Congress in 2008 to encourage states to extend foster youths' benefits to age 21.
Alishea Hawkins, assistant deputy director of services and outcomes for the Indiana Department of Child Services, said the program is designed to provide financial and emotional support to help participants become self-supporting adults. Its services include helping older teenagers live on their own and providing opportunities to become more independent through programs that teach household skills, including cooking and budgeting, and life skills, such as how to apply for and keep a job.
Many of our young people grow up in foster care where they are told what to do, when to do it and how to do it, she said. So many of these young people get to late adolescence, and they really don't have the skills and abilities to make those decisions.
The program, she said, is intended as a replacement for that family, that social network.
The program gives older youths in foster care more options than the state offered previously, including the chance to live on their own in apartments. They also can work with service providers to receive training they need to become independent.
Those opportunities are critical to help foster youths overcome challenges such as abuse and being moved from home to home, which can make it hard to make friends, attain academic stability and feel a sense of control, experts say.
To be eligible, youths must be in school or be working at least 80 hours a month or enrolled in a program that will help them get a job by providing money for housing and life-skills training.
Participants can live in a host home – sometimes with a relative – or in a group home, a college dorm or in an apartment with or without roommates. Case workers will walk those who want to move into an apartment through the process.
They'll help them with all of those pieces it takes, moving from dependency into an independent living arrangement, Hawkins said.
David Reed, senior director of client services at The Villages of Indiana Inc., an Indianapolis-based agency that works with aged-out foster children, said the program is critical to helping those youths develop basic life skills.
They are not prepared at age 18 to be able to go maintain an apartment and have food in their refrigerators and their pantries, Reed said. They need support from the state to provide those very basic things to help keep them alive.
Hawkins said each former foster child needs different skills, so it's up to service providers such as The Villages to develop individual plans.
The primary goal, she said, is to provide a safety net and connections so that youths have some folks around their table, on their team, in their social network that they can rely on lifelong.
Bailey understands those needs. At 12, he was removed from a home where he was abused and neglected and placed into state care. Starting at age 14, he was moved into nine foster or group homes during a two-year stretch. He saw his younger brother get adopted along the way.
At 16, he moved into a group home where the people who operated it became his foster parents. He now considers them his parents.
Collaborative Care wasn't available when Bailey graduated from Ben Davis High School in Indianapolis three years ago. He heard about the program after he dropped out of Indiana State University.
The support he's received has helped him save enough money to move back to central Indiana and get a good job, he said.

Can New York's Gay Hotel/Nightclub Get Any Respect?
Dec 28, 2011
The website for New York's incipient queer nightclub/hotel complex Out NYC was updated today and Gawker's Brian Moylan took its owners to task.
That's the thing about this Out NYC hotel. It's like your gay friend from Pittsburgh coming to visit and he wants to go to Splash and shop on Eight Avenue and have brunch at Cafeteria and, god, it's just so damn cheesey.
The gay hotel in New York is an utter embarrassment to those of us that live here. I mean, it's called "The Out NYC." What, are they going to have rainbow flag room keys? Also, have you ever heard anyone who lives in New York refer to it as "NYC?" There's a reason.
Just look at this place! The website. It's all slick and modern in that CB2 way that the blandest homosexuals are supposed enjoy… The facade looks like a giant TV set and the cruising grounds courtyard inside is of course filled with dapper men, because lesbians aren't really welcome at a gay hotel, are they?
True, the venue's evolution hasn't been the smoothest: The initial plan—which called for a five-story hotel, XL nightclub, retail shops and a 24-hour diner—has been scaled back dramatically. The opening date has been changed more times than Monroe and Moroccan's diapers. Funding has come and gone.
And there's that name.
All that aside, though, we're hoping it surpasses expectations. The Axel chain of hotels have done a great job bringing gay-centric accommodations to global metropolises, and there's no reason why the Big Apple shouldn't have it's own. Plus, as New Yorkers know, there are tragically few places to get your gay dance on—especially north of 23rd Street.
We pass by the building on Tenth Avenue and 42nd Street often. Right now it looks, shall we say, unfinished. (See photo at left.) But far enough along that a late-January opening for XL seems plausible.
Don't hold us to that, though.

Exploring Oscillators and Indicators: Conclusion
By Chad Langager and Casey Murphy, senior analyst of ChartAdvisor.com
The goal of every short-term trader is to determine the direction of a given asset's momentum and to attempt to profit from it. There have been hundreds of technical indicators and oscillators developed for this specific purpose and this tutorial has just covered the tip of the iceberg.
Here is a brief summary of what we've covered:
- Technical indicators are calculations based on the past price and volume of a security in an attempt to measure factors such as money flow, trends, volatility and momentum.
- Indicators can be separated into two main types - leading and lagging.
- Leading indicators are those created to proceed the price movements of a security giving predictive qualities.
- A lagging indicator is one that follows price movements and is often used to confirm a predicted move.
- Transaction signals can be generated in several different ways, but the two most popular methods are by using crossovers or divergence.
- A crossover occurs when the indicator moves through an important level or a moving average of the indicator. It is used to signal a shifting trend or momentum.
- Divergence occurs when the direction of the price and the indicator are moving in opposite direction. Generally, the price of an asset will revert back so that it trades in the same direction as the indicator.
- Volume can often be used to predict future price movements. One of the most popular indicators for this purpose is known as on-balance volume (OBV).
- Trending indicators, such as the Aroon indicator and the average directional index, are favorites amongst traders who wish to determine the strength of a given trend and the likelihood that it will continue.
- The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator is one of the most popular indicators and can signal the trend and momentum behind a given security.
- The relative strength index (RSI) is the most popular indicator used to determine overbought and oversold conditions.
- The idea behind the stochastic oscillator is that the closing prices should predominantly close in the same direction as the prevailing trend.
- Market indicators, such as the volatility indexes (VIX), advance-decline line, Arms index and McClellan oscillator are popular tools used by traders who wish to gauge the direction of the entire market to ensure that market forces are working in their favor.

The Scripps Institution of Oceanography says there's a 50% chance that within the next decade the 2,080-megawatt Hoover Dam could receive too little water to produce power.
Growing demand for water in the West, combined with reduced runoff due to climate change, is causing a net deficit of nearly 1 million acre-feet of water per year throughout the Colorado River system, which feeds the dam.
Researchers at the institution say water levels in Lake Mead could fall too low for power production by 2017 and run completely dry by 2021.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Hi ordered the green color of these invitations and I love them! They are so simple yet classy. I going the double matte paper, which is very thick! Very happy with this product and love my invitations."
"Paper quality of the whole suite is fantastic, colors are beautiful and they look even better than they did online. Delivered way earlier than the date on my order notification. Highly recommend!!"
"For this product, I selected a more natural color scheme. The overall card was a beige color and the leaves were a light green. I love the shape of the cars, square, more than the traditional full length card. The texture of the card itself was nice. Very appealing to me. I like simple and natural beauty."
"I was really impressed with how simple this whole process was. Designing my invitations was a fun process and your designers contacted me really quickly with advice when I needed it. I love the design and colours I was able to put together and the whole package arrived beautifully boxed. Thank you so much!"
"The invitation is beautiful and the turn around time and delivery service were accurate and speedy. I had one custom change (the name of the ceremony site wouldn't fit initially) and that was taken care of, no problem. However, I wish some additional text/customization was possible. My ceremony and reception are at two different locations and it was somewhat problematic to convey that on the invitation itself. I ordered separate reception cards but anticipating half of them being lost or forgotten :)"

Party Cooper
Ohio guard thwarts Buffalo's senior night
Senior guard Tony Watson (above) finished with a rare double double, scoring 11 points and grabbing 11 boards, but it was not enough to outlast MAC conference foe Ohio at Alumni Arena on Tuesday night. Nick Fischetti /// The Spectrum
The men's basketball team has faced the toughest competition the Mid-American Conference has to offer in its past two games.
Three days removed from one of the biggest wins in the program's history against nationally ranked Akron, the Bulls (12-18, 7-8 MAC) couldn't carry their momentum over against Ohio (22-8, 13-2 MAC), losing 72-69.
The Bulls let a 69-63 lead with 3:51 remaining slip away when Ohio guard D.J. Cooper (24 points) hit one of his five 3-pointers with just over a minute remaining to reclaim the lead. With 30 seconds remaining, the Bulls had the ball and trailed by just one but they missed their final two field goal attempts.
"This one came down to turnovers versus rebounds," said head coach Reggie Witherspoon. "We did a great job on the boards and we didn't do a great job of taking care of the basketball. We turned it over in spurts and it helped them get the outcome they wanted."
The Bulls went on an 18-3 run with nine minutes left to give them a six-point lead in the last few minutes. They then turned the ball over on back-to-back possessions, which sparked the Bobcats' run to close the game.
"[It was a] humongous swing in the game," Witherspoon said. "It just comes down to experience."
Buffalo finished the night with 19 turnovers - compared to Ohio's meager seven - and the Bobcats were able to convert 27 points off the Bulls' mistakes.
While the turnover battle favored Ohio, Buffalo dominated the glass throughout the contest, outrebounding the Bobcats 43-22.
"It's an emphasis in our program to be dominant on the glass," said sophomore forward Will Regan. "As a team, the mindset was to take care of the ball and get rebounds, so those were things we focused on. Tonight, we were able to do the rebounding part."
Regan finished with a team-high 20 points (12 of which came in the second half) and hauled in eight rebounds. His counterpart down low, junior forward Javon McCrea, finished with 19 points.
Though the Bulls weren't able to complete the comeback and come away with a victory, Witherspoon still thinks the team is getting better.
"To be in that situation and to be able to fight all the way back, it just shows that we're getting better," Witherspoon said. "These last two teams are the upper part of the conference and we're not too far away."
Senior guard Tony Watson and senior guard Richie Sebuharara celebrated senior night before the game began. Watson finished with a rare double-double, scoring 11 points and grabbing 11 boards.
In addition to the late-game three Cooper hit that proved to be a dagger to the Bulls, the senior guard made his marks in Ohio's and the NCAA's record books. He is now currently the program's all-time leader in 3-pointers made and became the first player in NCAA history to record 2,000 points, 500 rebounds, 900 assists and 300 steals in a career.
"D.J. hit a tremendous shot with the game on the line," said Ohio head coach Jim Christian. "That's the kind of kid he is: he wants the ball in big spots. The minute he walks out the door, you're not going to see another one like him for a long, long time."
The Bulls wrap up their regular season on the road, as they take on Bowling Green (12-18, 6-9 MAC) on Friday for a 6 p.m. tip.

Hello, i'm Lychai; nice to meet you.
I've been a member of AO in the past, but I thought the site had died. Eh? Whatever.
I'm really had to re-joined. Please take god care of me.
About me.... Well first off my name is Michelle, but Lychai works fine. I love graphic design, so i'll be over in that section, competing in SOTW, and the gallery mostly.
I have to tell you that my spring semester is coming up. I cannot guarantee i'll be completely active, but I will post and TRY to be. I hate joining somewheres and not being active.
I'm not a big anime fan now although I love manga and manhwa. I watch dramas. English (American/British), Asian, German, and French dramas the most.
By the why... in the registration, do you know "what" is misspelled?
Anyways, hello AO. ^-^

Verizon's Current Bundle Offerings
Verizon bundles are special offers by Verizon, targeted at people who are interested in saving some money on their various phone, TV and Internet services. Verizon has several different bundles from which customers can choose, and it is a great idea to first get familiar with its current bundles instead of just picking any one of them at random.
Verizon features standard Verizon bundles that are dubbed either Double Play or the Verizon Triple Play. However, both Double Play and Triple Play Verizon bundles have different levels of services that are included.
For example, Verizon's current (As of Dec 5th 2011) Double Play bundle is actually 2 different bundles that pertain to customers' phone and Internet choices. The cheapest Double play bundle is $44.99, and it includes high-speed Internet with speeds ranging from 4 to 7 Mbps and Verizon Freedom Essentials, which relates to the phone service. This phone service features the opportunity to call at any time of the day and always pay the same rate. The next level of Verizon Double Play bundle costs $49.99, and it covers customers' phone and Internet needs, too. For an extra $5, customers will get high-speed Internet service that features speeds of 768 kbps to 1 Mbps.
Verizon's Freedom Value is the phone service that is attached to this bundle. This means that customers can expect crystal-clear voice quality, residential calling that is unlimited for regional, local and long-distance purposes, and a guarantee of 99.9 percent Verizon phone network dependability.
Verizon bundles also include Triple Play bundles. There are 3 different bundles from which to choose under this offer. For $74.99, customers can get high-speed Internet that features speeds ranging from 4 to 7 Mbps, DirecTV Choice Xtra and a DVR, and Verizon Freedom Essentials. For $79.99, customers can get the next-costliest Triple Play bundle. It includes high-speed Internet that's enhanced, DirecTV Choice Xtra plus a DVR, and Verizon Regional Essentials. For $89.99, customers are able to buy a Triple Play bundle that features high-speed Internet with speeds going from 4 to 7 Mbps, DirecTV Choice Ultimate with HD and a DVR, and Verizon Freedom Essentials.
Verizon also features Verizon FiOS bundles. These bundles refer to Verizon services that work over a fiber-optic communications system or network. Verizon has two FiOS Double Play bundles. The cheaper one for $69.99 features FiOS TV Prime HD and FiOS Internet 15/5. The FiOS Double Play bundle for $79.99 offers customers FiOS Internet 25/25 and unlimited calling on their phone service. Verizon also offers customers a FiOS Triple Play option. This provides customers with the opportunity to pay $89.99 and in return receive FiOS TV Prime HD, FiOS Internet 15/5 and unlimited calling on their phone service.
All told, Verizon bundles are good because they are an excellent value for their customers' hard-earned dollar. By bundling various components of essential services—such as TV, Internet and phone—Verizon is able to provide its customers with the latest in high-tech solutions for a lot cheaper than if these aforementioned services were purchased individually. As a result, Verizon customers are able to save a good amount of money with Verizon bundles and still get fast and high-tech Internet, TV and phone services. Customers must also note that if they don't act quickly on these offers, then any special promotions or offers could end at any time.

All offer details listed on this page are as of Dec 5th 2011 and are subject to change at anytime.

Good location with free parking. Reasonable value for money at £30 a head with breakfast however the breakfast was kiddy portion size. It's an old building but everything is grubby including the cutlery, crockery, bathrooms etc. could do with a good clean to transform it from shabby hostel to quaint olde inn.

United's MVP Valencia impresses again
Updated: April 2, 2012, 9:06 PM ETBy James Martin
If you had to create an all-European team, and you could only select one player per team, whom would you pick? It's a cherished conceit among football fans, and one in which I'll write about at some point during the Champions League run-in. In the meantime, though, watching Manchester United versus Blackburn at Ewood Park on Monday (you can watch the replay here), the topic was in the forefront of the mind again. If you had to select one star, and only one, from a team, there's only ...
