Elana Meyers Taylor
Olympic Silver Medalist, World Champion, Bobsled
"Shoot for the moon. If you miss, you'll land among the stars. "
When Elana Meyers got a new BMW sled for this season, she turned to the Classroom Champions community for help in naming it! She sent out a call for help to all the students in the program to send in their ideas for a name. Finally, on the first day of the 1st World Cup race of the season, she announced the name - Bobslayer - suggested by Martina McQuire's class in Maitland, Florida.
Elana Meyers knows that it's not all about her. In fact, she's been a team player most of her life and credits a large part of her success to those around her. Softball was her passion early own and played professionally for one year, but didn't make it on the women's Olympic softball team. But that wasn't enough to stop Elana from her dream of competing in the Olympics.
So, she headed for the ice, and like some other bobsledders we know (ahem, Steve Mesler) started a second athletic career as a brakeman. A brakeman is the one who pushes the sled. After winning a bronze medal at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver, Elana decided she wanted to be in the driver's seat. A driver, she says, is like the quarterback in football. They plan the strategy and lead the team on the field. Plus, she admits, "I do like to be in control."
Elana also knows a thing or two about education. She calls herself a bit of geek for loving calculus and chemistry in school, and is now studying for her second master's degree. We look forward to the lessons from Elana, also known as "Ms. Meyers" the substitute teacher in the off-season!
This is Elana's second year as an Athlete Mentor.
Fun Fact: Elana's favorite game growing up was freeze tag.

Gear Review

Great pack that needs a little work
I have had this pack for the past year and enjoyed it. While it does lack useful pockets for organization, it is good in terms of comfort, quality and space. I love the trekking pole holders and the removable lid (that turns into a fanny pack). The outer stuff pocket becomes pretty useless if you fill the main compartment, and the J-zipper access was never really that useful to me due to its odd J design (does not open up all the way. My last complaint is that the padding on the back of the hip belt is rough and has caused me pain right on my lower back area after multiple days of heavy backpacking. Osprey decided to make that bit of padding that has direct contact with your lower lumbar region bumpy and slightly abrasive, hence causing discomfort after long periods. Overall I would give this pack a 4.5/5 stars if I could, the rough lumbar padding being my only real gripe. My last comment is not directly about the pack, but just a helpful hint about sizing. I am 5'10" and 150 lb's. I have always assumed I was a medium in pretty much everything because of my height. But it turns out that my torso length was exactly between a medium and a small. I originally went with a medium. This caused the shoulder straps to just barely not correctly hold the pack tightly against my back, causing my lower back pain after several hours of backpacking with a heavy load. The small size backpack fit much better and eliminated the problem. So if you are barely a medium or in between sizes, consider going down a size in this pack.

My Two Cents for July 15, 2013
New Sharks Take to Summer Ice- When July 11th or any date in July roles around most people are thinking about the the summer season. Many people are either on summer vacations, or about to leave for summer vacations. Sun, fun, surf, barbecues, family gatherings, baseball, all the things that bring about the best in a season that's planned for all year around. The farthest thing from anyone's mind is hockey especially a month after the Stanley Cup finals have concluded. However, if you are in the Stanley Cup business, there are three seasons that encompass the entire year. The Regular Season (October to April); The Post Season (April to June), and the Off Season (July-September). The San Jose Sharks are using this summer to take a good luck at the players they have drafted and other and other minor leaguers in their organization. Team Teal held their first annual Sharks Prospects Scrimmage this past Thursday night as Sharks Ice in San Jose. Many fans got their first looks at players such as Tomas Hertl, Mirco Mueller who were the Sharks top choices in the last two re-entry drafts. Fans also go their first look at Konrad Abeltshauser as well. In addition, players who have been with the Sharks organization since 2011, Matthew Nieto, Dylan Demelo and Sean Kuraly also participated.
The event is not only so fans can see for themselves the players the Sharks are introducing to the organization, but also to showcase how these players are being developed and what the potential Sharks teams of the future may look like. It's also a chance for the coaches to work with the players in a less stressed environment to help them see how they can develop them to get them up to speed and NHL caliber. Much of the harder work will come soon enough when the Sharks open their pre-season camp in September. The ones who impressed the most this past Thursday will get a much closer look when the September camp rolls around. It wont be too long before some of these players will make their way to San Jose for more than just the summer scrimmage and at that time the Sharks will need to have these players assume some larger rolls. How the Sharks go about the development of these prospects will determine a lot of their fortunes as a franchise down the road.
Stalock is Re-signed- This past Wednesday (7/10) the San Jose Sharks and goalie Alex Stalock agreed to a one year contract. Stalock, who played 38 games last season for the Sharks AHL affiliate in Worcester, Mass. is expected to be the odds on favorite to become Antti Niemi's backup in the 2013-14 season. Stalock would replace Thomas Greiss, who was let go by the Sharks and allowed to pursue free agency. Greiss has since signed with the Phoenix Coyotes. Stalock was viewed to be one of the Sharks top goalie prospects until a sever leg injury in the 2011-12 season caused a major set back. Stalock, 25, has appeared in over 140 games for the Worcester Sharks and was the team's MVP during the 2009-10 campaign. Stalock became the all-time leader in Worcester Sharks goalie wins when he secured his 75th victory on Apr. 9, 2013 at Bridgeport, where he made 32 saves in a 3-0 shutout victory. Along with being the franchise leader in wins in finishing the year with 76 career, Stalock was named the Worcester Sharks 3 Stars Award winner as well.
If Stalock is able to remain healthy he will certainly be a reliable asset for the Sharks who are in need of a strong backup goalie. After an injury that could alter or even end the career of most goalies (and most other players in general), Stalock has fought back to become one of the most reliable net minders in Worcester's history. Obvious success in Worcester is not a guarantee of success in San Jose. With a career mark of 76-54-11 in the AHL, Stalock has certainly seen more than ample ice time and should be the quality back up the Sharks will need going forward. If he has a decent campaign for team teal in 2013-14, Sharks General Manager Doug Wilson should certainly look to extend Stalock beyond this coming season.
San Francisco Bulls News- The Sharks ECHL affiliate, the San Francisco Bulls, have announced the signings of three players who made names for themselves in the Bulls inaugural season last year. The Bulls this week agreed to terms with defensemen Scott Langdon and Dylan King, and forward Kris Belan. These are the first three players to agree to terms for the 2013-14 season. Langdon was he Bulls team Captain for the 2012-13 season and was one of the team's top defensive players. King meanwhile was named the Bulls most improved player for last season and will be entering his third season of professional hockey. As for Belan, he was one who was not afraid to drop the gloves and take up for his teammates as his 141 penalty minutes tied him for second on the team. Belan last season has eight goals and 13 assist for the Bulls.
The Bulls will start their 2013-14 season on October 18th against the team that bounced them from the post season this past April. The Alaska Aces will play the Bulls twice on the 18th and 19th of October in Anchorage. The Bulls first home date at the Cow Palace will be on November 8th as they take on the Bakersfield Condors. The Bulls will meet the ECHL's Western Conference Champion Stockton Thunder in Stockton November 11th and 20th. The Thunder's first visit to the Cow Palace is December 14th.
Kovalchuk Decides NHL is Not For Him Anymore- In what is probably and easily the biggest shocker of the NHL's off season, the New Jersey Devils announced that RW Ilya Kovalchuck was not returning to the team. This was not because the Devils wanted to buy him out or trade him. The was because Kovalchuk, 30, had decided to "Retire from the NHL." It is reported by the St Louis Post Dispatch that Kovalchuk has decided to return to his roots and play the second half of his career in the KHL**. Kovalchuk signed a 15-year, $100 million contract with the Devils in 2010. With his "retirement", Kovalchuk walks away leaving $77 million on the table.
In 11 NHL seasons with the (now defunct) Atlanta Thrashers and New Jersey Devils, Kovalchuk scored 417 goals and 399 assists for 816 points with 516 penalty minutes in 816 games. In addition Kovalchuk added 11 goals and 16 assists in 32 career playoff games as well. It is expected that Kovalchuk not only will return to the team he played for during this past seasons' NHL lockout, SKA St Petersburg, he is also expected to be named the captain of the Russian Olympic team during next years Winter Olympics in Sochi. It is believed that Kovalchuk's decision resume his career in the KHL may have been influenced by the lockout as well.**
If someday Kovalchuk changes his mind after a few seasons and attempts to return to the NHL, he will not be able to do so as a free agent. The Devils will continue to hold Kovalchuk's NHL rights through 2018-19, and would be wise to do so just to make sure he doesn't decided to sign with a rival team.
Hockey Hot Stove- The Boston Bruins this week re-signed forward Patrice Bergeron to a new deal with $52 Million over the next eight seasons. Bergeron was one of many Bruins players who had a major role in Boston making their second Stanley Cup Finals series appearance in the last three seasons. The new deal goes into effect after the 2013-14 season ends. Bergeron's current three year, $15 Million deal runs out next June 30th. In the lockout shortened season, Bergeron had 10 goals and 22 assist. In the Stanley Cup playoffs, Bergeron scored nine goals while adding six assist. In addition, the Bruins also locked up goalie Tuukka Rask by re-signing him to an eight year deal worth $56 Million. Rask assumed the role as the Bruins number one net minder with the sudden departure of Tim Thomas before the 2011-12 season. Rask certainly has had some tough games in his career, however he has also turned in some huge performances in the net when the Bruins were in need the most. Despite the loss in the Stanley Cup finals, Rask in Game's Two and Three held the Blackhawks to just one goal combined. Any salary cap issues the Bruins needed to address before signing Rask were taken care of when Boston shipped controversial center Tyler Seguin to Dallas.
The Los Angeles Kings rewarded rookie defenseman Jake Muzzin with a two-year contract worth $2 Million. Muzzin was the NHL's Rookie of the Month this past March and had a prominent role in helping the former Champion Kings get back to the Western Conference Finals. Muzzin scored three power play goals and had 70 hits earning his spot on the post season roster.
The Chicago Blackhawks inked forward Marcus Kruger to a two year deal. Kruger netted three goals for the Stanley Cup Champions during the post season, and has played in 125 regular season games for Chicago. Kruger was drafted by the Blackhawks in 2009 in the fifth round and has turned out to be a true diamond in the rough.
Meanwhile the St Louis Blues have signed veteran forward Derek Roy to a one year contract. Roy, 30, will be entering his 10th NHL season. Roy spent his first eight seasons in the NHL with the Buffalo Sabres before being dealt to the Dallas Stars during the off season a year ago. Roy was later traded from the Stars to the Vancouver Canucks in a trade deadline deal in early April after things did not work out in Dallas. The one year deal for Roy with the Blues is worth $4 Million.
The Phoenix Coyotes have been a little busy themselves. Phoenix re-signed Lauri Korpikoski to a four year contract. The Coyotes did not release any financial terms regarding the deal. Korpikoski, 26, who has spent time with the New York Rangers and Coyotes, has played in 336 NHL games. Korpikoski has 53 career goals and 60 assists. In addition to Korpikoski's new deal, the Coyotes also signed first-round draft pick Max Domi to a three-year, entry-level contract. The Coyotes selected Domi with 12th overall pick in this summer's draft. The Toronto native scored 39 goals and 87 points in 64 games last season for the Ontario Hockey league's London Knights. As many already know, Domi is the son of former Toronto Maple Leaf Tie Domi who was legendary for the many fights he was involved in during his career. However, the younger Domi is a markedly different type of player who is frankly more interested in scoring than fighting. Domi netted 39 goals, as well as an impressive 48 assists in 64 games last season for the Ontario Hockey league's London Knights. The Coyotes also inked former Shark Tim Kennedy to a one year contract after Kennedy was not offered a contact with San Jose (this is Tim Kennedy, NOT to be confused with Tyler Kennedy). Kennedy joins Thomas Greiss as the second former Shark to sign with Phoenix during this off season.
In Buffalo, the Sabres currently are not entertaining any trade offers for either goalie Ryan Miller or forward Thomas Vanek. Both players will be entering the final year of their respective contracts with the team, and if not signed could very likely leave as free agents on July 1st of next off season. Vanek's contract is currently a $7 Million cap hit for the Sabres while Miller's cap hit is worth $6.2 Million for this coming season. Both players have spent their entire NHL careers with the Sabres. Vanek since the 2005-06 season has had a very nice career with 250 goals and 238 assists. Miller in his time as a Buffalo Sabre has started exactly 500 regular season games. Miller has 269 career wins since 2002-03.
Canucks, Senators to Take it Outside- The Vancouver Canucks and Ottawa Senators announced this week they will be participating in the 2014 Heritage Classic. The game is set for March 2nd, shortly after the NHL resumes from it's Olympic Break. The game will take place at at Vancouver's BC Place, which is the home of the CFL's BC Lions and the MLS' Vancouver Whitecaps. BC Place is a stadium which does have a retractable roof, which could come in handy should the weather become a factor in the quality of the ice. The Previous Heritage Classic was played in Calgary in February 2011, when the host Calgary Flames defeated the Montreal Canadians 4-0. This is the latest of NHL games to take matters outside. Dodger Stadium is to be used for a future game between the Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks. Yankee Stadium is also being considered for a possibly two games involving a combination of the New York Rangers, New York Islanders, and New Jersey Devils. A fourth team could even become involved here as well.
A Good Comeback- ESPN in their infinite wisdom recently tweeted the San Jose Sharks regarding some farce of a movie on the Sci-Fi Channel called "Sharknado." ESPN tweet to the Sharks:
Hey @SanJoseSharks, thoughts on changing your name to the San Jose #Sharknados?
The Sharks reply:
Hey @espn, thoughts on showing more hockey highlights?
ESPN never responded to the Sharks tweet. Ofcourse they didn't respond. That's so ESPN of them too. I guess they had no comeback. It just had to be humbling too.
Non-Hockey Item: Tim Lincecum's No-Hitter- Saturday Night at Petco Park in San Diego the San Francisco Giants' Tim Lincecum made history in pitching his first career no-hitter as the Giants defeated the San Diego Padres 9-0. Lincecum threw 148 pitches which is an extremely high pitch count by today's standards. In the 27 outs Lincecum recorded, 13 of them were strikeouts, six of which came in a row during a sequence in the game. Lincecum did allow five base runners, four of which came on walks with the other being a hit batsmen. Hunter Pence made a diving catch of Alexi Amarista's bid to break up the no-hitter with two outs in the bottom of the eight inning. At 43-51, the Giants have been a large disappointment this season and appears unlikely they will make the post season to defend their 2012 title. However Lincecum on Saturday night reminded the Giants faithful and all of major league baseball that there is a reason he has two Cy Young awards and two World Series rings. Tim Lincecum is also a noted team teal fan who had the honor of dropping a ceremonial first puck before a Sharks game shortly after the Giants won their first of two World Series titles in 2010.

|Different with Chryst and
Different with Chryst and Hoke is that Chryst was a OC at Wiscy when they were successful and made that run with Bert.
He does know the program but also was a huge part of making Wiscy what it is today.
This year I'd say Chryst and Riley probably have more wins simply because they are in the crappy west.

|I'll never compared
I'll never compared Jordan/Lebron for the simple fact that the era's are different and the power is now in the west. Lebron has been smart staying in the east where when the Bulls are your main team in the way then getting to the finals is a breeze no matter who you have with you.
To go through the west where the #8 seed constantly has 50 wins is a success in itself. When teams with barely 40 wins are your first round opponents then life becomes easy. Congrats to the Hawks for their season but dear lord they weren't a great team and would have gotten eatin alive in the west.
The officiating in this era is horrible as well...we talk about Jordan getting all the calls just imagine in this day and age what kind of alls MJ would get. Guy would shoot 20 FT's a game in this era.
LBJ is a type 5 player in history and so is MJ, but truth be told I would have loved to see wht LBJ would do when he got put on his ass every single time he stepped into the lane.

Woodley sometimes came up to Center Courts up here in Saginaw during our winter hoops league when his team was eliminated from the playoffs.
Real stand up guy and personable, wouldn't even know he played in NFL. Green is the same type of guy as well, used to come to the Y and hoop in his younger days.
Love that both guys haven't forgot where they came from and are putting a lot of effort into making Saginaw better.
Two real good guys a lot of the youth in our city can look up to.

Vital Statistics at Time of Disappearance
Details of Disappearance
Amber Hoopes was last seen by family members in their residence in Idaho Falls, Idaho, at approximately 10:30 p.m. on September 14, 2001. At approximately 1:00 a.m., a family member found the television and lights were on in Amber's bedroom, but she was no longer inside. Her personal belongings were still in the room.
Keith Glenn Hescock has been investigated for possible involvement in Hoopes's case, and also the 1993 disappearance of Stephanie Lyn Crane. Hescock kidnapped a fourteen-year-old girl in June 2002. She escaped from him and he later committed suicide. Hescock had worked for the Hoopes family, and his neighbor says he was in Challis, Idaho the weekend Crane disappeared from that location. He also owned a yellow pickup truck similar to the one that may be connected to Crane's case. Authorities have not been able to link him to either disappearance, however.

1) Elizabeth?
[1] According to an ' Essay on the Dewhirst Family ' written by a Dewhirst relative Muriel Langdon Parsons (eldest child of John Langdon Parsons and his wife Marianne nee Dewhirst): "Charles was the youngest of 13 children and born in the area of Wakefield, Yorkshire. No parents or siblings names mentioned. (No references or verification of any kind. ) He was delicate and his mother nursed him for a long time. His father was killed by lightening whilst driving in a four wheeled gig with his wife. They took shelter under a tree. His wife would never afterwards drive in a conveyance of any kind. When quite a young man, an old wool merchant and cloth spinner Simon Cumberland had a great affection for him. They were like father and son. Simon Cumberland was an old bachelor and when he died he left £90,000 but Charles only benefited to the extent of £1,000 and a valuable library." Family connections pointed to the area of Wakefield, Horbury, Dewsbury, Osset, Gomersal and Halifax where Richard Dewhirst, Schoolmaster lived. It has been proved (2007) Richard and Charles were brothers; sons of Luke Dewhirst of Brantom Farm, Sowerby, W. Yorkshire. They may also be grandsons of George Dewhirst from Osset who married an Elizabeth Mitchell - no dates given and/or George Dewhirst who married Frances (who d. April 1758). The record comes from the Register of the Chapel of Horbury in the Parish of Wakefield 1598 - 1812 and this could be one man who had two wives.
"In reading The Harwoods of Suffolk written by Alfred Harwood 1831- Will of Simon Cumberland proved at £147.000. Residue of his property to 6 cousins. Cannot find will but does prove validity of part of the essay: ' The Dewhirsts of the little village of Dewhurst of Osset, Wakefield, their crests and arms are identical, also the name Dewhirst now more generally spelt Dewhurst. ' "
Charles was educated at the Hoxton Academy in London, in 1797 and was listed as a member of the Church of Christ at Osset, after training at Hoxton. His letter of application was written from Gomersall, near Leeds in Yorkshire in Jun 1797. Charles was ordained at Whiting St. Church in Bury (currently United Reformed Church) on the 25 May 1801, by imposition of hands, after obtaining honourable dismission from the Church of Christ at Ossett from the Rev. Taylor. A John Taylor was documented as curate of Horbury when he married Richard Dewhirst at all of his 3 weddings 1782, 1785 and 1789, further suggesting a close tie between Charles and Richard. During his lifetime Charles' work was published, including in 1808, a set of Essays on the Nature, Order, Priviledges, and Duties of the Christian Church. His particular interests were in social reform and the abolition of slavery.
Seven years after his wife, Sophia's, death Charles married Letitia Bromley, daughter of Nathaniel Warner Bromley, of Badmonsfield Hall. This family were non-conformist landowners in Suffolk. Sadly Letitia died the following year. Charles died in 1845 of carcinoma of the stomach. He had been the longest serving minister at the Whiting St Church, Bury St Edmunds and a memorial was placed on his tomb.
[2] Charles married Sophia Mary Last in May 1808. Sophia (b. 1789) was a daughter of Simon and Mary Last of Southwell Park, Suffolk. Sophia may have been pregnant when she married as an unnamed child was buried at Whiting St Church and Charles recorded his daughter's death in the registers. Sophia had seven children at 2 yearly intervals.
There is reference in notes that Sylvia has obtained from one of Edward's descendants in Australia that a knighthood was granted on Charles by Louis XVIII of France. This was never claimed and is thought to have been lost through Emma's daughter's fiancée taking the documents on a pretence to finding out whether they could be claimed. Sophia died 1Mar 1823, probably with child.
[3] Charles became a pupil at Bury Free Grammer School in 1820. In 1826, Charles left school to be articled to a surgeon, in which proffession, he later qualified. On the 5 Oct 1810 Sarah Ann Reeve was baptized by the father of Charles, at Whiting St. Independent Church. Sarah Ann Reeve, eldest daughter of Mr John Reeve, a music seller in Abbeygate Rd. Bury became Charles' wife. Charles was now a chemist and druggist in the High St. at Clare in Suffolk. His sister Emma was a witness at the wedding and could have been a friend of Sarah Anne. Children of Charles and Sarah Anne: Charles Roger (b. 1 Mar 1841, Clare, Suffolk), John Reeve (b.22 Apr 1841, Clare, Suffolk).
[4] According to family papers Alfred died of yellow fever on the West Coast of Africa, perhaps some time arround the 1830's.
[5] Edward is documented as having been a pupil at the King Edward the VI Grammer School, at Bury St. Edmund, under the headmastership of the celebrated classisist Donaldson. He attended from 1825 to 1831, from 10 yrs of age to 16 yrs. of age. He was articled to a surgeon from the age of 17 yrs., studied for the medical proffession for 4 yrs. and had 6 mths. assistancy experience.
Edward abandoned his career as a surgeon aged about 22 yrs. of age, and in the spring of 1835 sailed for Jamaica. He states in his application to Homerton College 18 Apr 1838: " I was puersuaded to proceed from this country to Jamaica, as a surgeon to some emigrants, who were going thither, which the law will allow, that I had never qualified to practice by anything else than an aprenticeship to the medical proffession, and a half years assistancy afterward. This undertaking was regarded by me in the light, which I hope it should have been, I felt the uncertainty of my ever seeing my native shores again, and my friends and fond father.
On arriving at Jamaica, which I did in safety, and with all my charges, I was offered and accepted a situation as clerk, and to make use of my surgical knowledge, on an estate at a distance from those emigrants, which I was in some degree at that time, and afterward sorry for, as in visiting that place 18 months afterwards, I found that 13 of 16 had fallen victims of the climate and their intemperance, had I been there, I think, from the attatchment manifested towards me on board ship, I might have been the means of saving them from so awful, and untimely, and I fear everlasting a destruction. I had been but 15 months in that country, when God saw it wise to inflict apon me a heavy and severe chastisement, not more than I deserved, but far less, in the yellow fever. And Oh! how great his mercy in sparing me, etc.etc. - The difficulty of attending a place of worship, weighed heavily apon me, the nature of my occupation disgusted me, a desire to benefit the souls of the poor creatures arround me was awakened and secretly I taught some to read, some to repeat, and disributed all my little books of Christian instruction among them. Some of the people had become endeared to me, yet I longed to return home, and thus I should have been much delighted in giving up my occupation and enrolling myself as advocate of my Saviours cause, yet feeling that the circumstances of my having been employed in a situation of authority over apprentices, would have created in the minds of the missionaries a degree of suspicion, I silently and secretly pursued my mode of instructions only being deterred from retirning home, by a false sense of pride, lest I might be accised of a want of stability, but God whose ways are above our ways, and whose thoughts are above our thoughts, again laid his hand upon me."
On the island he became aquainted with the late Rev. Hodge, then a minster at that island.
Although the trafficing of slaves was abolished in England arround 1801, the abolishment of slavery wasn't. England had vast investments in the sugar cane estates of Jamaica which Parliament protected against lobbying from prominent figures from the Abolisment of Slavery campaigns. So Edward must have seen at first hand the living and working conditions of slaves and their punative treatment. He may indeed have had to treat them medically after floggings, which were common place. The whip ruled the lives of the slaves. Although Independent Ministers were settled in Jamaica they could do little to improve the conditions of slavery. The powerful estate owners and managers could be life threateningly intimidating and the long arm of English Law appeared impotent. There are incidents that suggest that a few ministers were as punative as the estate owners and managers.
He arrived back in London in May 1837. He stayed and assisted his father in Bury St. Edmunds for 1 yr. Edward successfully applied to Homerton College in June 1838, where he studied under Dr Pye Smith until 1841. He then became minister at Billericay. Edward left Billericay church in 1846.
On the 17 Feb. 1847, Edward wrote a letter stating his conversion from dissent, and this was printed in the Bury and Norwich Morning Post. He had been for some time a preacher at the Independent Church of Billericay, in Essex and renounced the principles of dissent and had conformed to the Church of England. He intimated his intention to seek admission into holy orders at the hands of the Lord Bishop of Rochester, and was in the process of preparation for the ministry in the Church of England.
In 1853, Edward Dewhirst emigrated to Australia on the S.S. Caroline. On the 4 June 1857 his wife and 3 children set sail for Australia in the barque Libertas. Also with her were her 2 sisters Esther and Harriet Jarvis. There appeas to be other Jarvis family members besides. For a time Edward occupied the pulpit of the old chapel in Ebenezer place and taught classics at the Adelaide Educational Institution. Afterwards for 2 yrs. he was on the Literary staff of The Register, and contributed to The Farm and Garden. Edward died in Adelaide in 1904, aged 89 yrs. of chronic arteriosclerosis. At Nairne, Kensington. According to research undertaken in Australia, he did not leave a will.
Children of Edward and Mary Ann are: Edward Nicole (b. 1850, St. Heleirs, Jersey), Marianna (b. 1851, St. Heleirs, Jersey), Evangaline (b. 1853, St. Heleirs, Jersey), Thomas Youngman (b. 1859, Kent Town, South Australia), Charles Hay (b. 1860, North Adelaide, Australia).
[6] According to Mary Sophie's marriage certificate, her brother Edward, a minister officiated at the ceremony. Children of Mary Sophie Dewhirst and Alfred Gore are: Alice (b. 1845, Billericay, Essex), Emily (b. 1846, Billericay, Essex), Alfred O. (b. 1847, Oxford, Oxfordshire), William B. (b. 1849, Oxford, Oxfordshire), Charles E. (b. 1850, Hungerford, Bedfordshire), Howard (b. 1852, Hungerford, Bedfordshire), Ann Y. (b. 1854, Islington, Middlesex), Tom Y. (b. 1857, Lea Bridge, Essex), and Emma (b. 18 Oct 1819, St. James Parish Bury, St. Edmunds).
[7] Captain John Weeks was born in Southampton abt. 1812 and was 9 yrs. older than Emma. He was a Commander on the P and O Line, Steam and Navigation Co. Children of Emma Dewhirst and John weeks are: Charles (b. 1846, Southampton), John (b. 1847, Southampton), Emma (b. 1849, Southampton), and Edith Anna (b. 1850, South Stoneham, Hampshire), Alice Sophia (b. 1853, Bitterne, Hampshire). Captain John Weeks d. 18 Sep 1884, 24 Belsize Road, Hampstead, Middlesex. He had done very well for himself as a Master Mariner. Captains had their own place in the hold, for their own imports.

[1] William led a different live to that of his brothers, enlisting in the 94th. Regiment of Foot, at Bury St. Edmunds on the 7 Sep 1843. Documented as aged 20 yrs. and 5/12, he served in the 43rd regiment of the foot for 4 years and the 94th regiment for 10 months. He was in the East Suffolk Militia for 10 years. He was court marshalled when he returned home for his father's funeral. He was documented as a seaman in 1851 and branded with the letter "d" for deserter. He went on to work as a chimney sweep. Evidence suggests he never actually married his common law wife, Eleanor Gould but they had 10 children. In the 1861 census William, aged 38 yrs, lived with his wife, Eleanor and 4 children, at Long Yard, Cold Dunghills, in the parish of St. Margarets. They lived in the poorest area of Ipswich and was caught twice for poaching. William was documented as being a merchant seaman on Edwards birth certificate. He died in 1875 at 52 years of age.
[2] Eleanor was b. 1819. William had been living with a wife called Elizabeth in Ipswich in the 1851 census. No evidence can the found of this marriage but we do not think it was the same woman, Eleanor Eliza Gould, whom William was later linked with, and by whom he fathered many children. Eleanor Eliza Gould used the name Allman, her first marriage and Dewhirst. Eleanor Eliza Allman was documented in the 1851 Census at 9 Gipping St. Ipswich.She lived on her own and was married and worked as dressmaker. The first child of William and Eleanor, Emma, was born in the workhouse in Ipswich under the Allman name. Twin sons were born in 1857. In 1881 Eleanor Gould is living with 3 children in Kent's Yard off Church St. After her husbands death, Eleanor continued to live in St. Clements Parish and in 1881, and aged 53 yrs. worked as a charwoman and lived at Kents Yard off Church St. 3 of her children lived with her. Eleanor died aged 57 yrs. at 2 Kents Yard, in the parish of St. Clements on the 31 Jan 1885.

They later operated the Butt and Oyster at Pinmill, Chelmondiston where they dealt in antiques and eventually built the Ferry Lodge..

When I first received my copy of Back to Basics, I knew that someday I would make the goat cheese tart. I mean, it has some of my favorite components: puff pastry, goat cheese, caramelized onions, parmesan, thyme…add a glass of wine, and life is perfect.
I originally made this recipe last year for the Barefoot Bloggers, which I was eventually a drop-out of. Someday, I might rejoin, but I've made so many of Ina's recipes already that I've had commitment issues.
If you haven't tried these yet, do so! With a glass of crisp white wine, they are the perfect weekend lunch.
Tomato & Goat Cheese Tarts
adapted from Barefoot Contessa: Back to Basics
1 sheet puff pastry, defrosted
Olive oil
2 c thinly sliced onions (mixture of red & yellow)
3 large garlic cloves, sliced
Sea salt & black pepper
Dry White Wine
2 tsp thyme leaves
2 oz herb goat cheese
6 grape tomatoes, sliced in half length-wise
3 large basil leaves, cut in a chiffonade
8 shavings of Parmesan cheese
1. Unfold the sheet of puff pastry and lightly flour each side. Roll the sheet into an 11×11 inch square. Using a 6 inch wide bowl, cut two circles from the pastry, reserving the rest for another use. Place the pastry on a sheet pan lined with parchment and refrigerate until ready to use.
2. Heat a drizzle of olive oil (about 1 tablespoon) in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and saute for about 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are limp and there is almost no moisture remaining in the skillet. Add the garlic and saute for about a minute or until fragrant. Add 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, and the thyme; stir to combine. Deglaze the pan with a splash of wine, scraping the bottom to loosen any brown bits.
3. Preheat oven to 425. Continue to cook the onions for another 10 minutes or until the onions are golden brown. Deglaze the pan one more time with a splash of wine to loosen any brown bits. Turn off the heat.
4. Using a sharp paring knife, score a 1/2 inch wide border around each pastry circle, but don't cut through the pastry. Dock the pastry inside the border with a fork.
5. Place half the onion mixture on each circle, being careful to keep the onions inside the border. Crumble 1 ounce of goat cheese on each tart. Arrange tomato halves into a circle on top of the onions. Brush the tomatoes and onions lightly with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with basil, salt, and pepper. Top with parmesan shavings.
6. Bake for twenty minutes. Serve hot or warm.
Cut into fourths and serve.

For SCI-Arc, There Is No Place Like Home
Wednesday, January 26, 2011
Sam Lubell.
After years of trying, it looks like SCI-Arc is finally going to own its building in Downtown LA's Arts District. According to the school the project should close escrow before this May. According to blogdowntown, the school will pay $23.1 million for the 100,000-square-foot building and its surrounding 4.75 acre lot. The deal had been held up because of property owner Meruelo Maddux's continuing bankruptcy, but the company just settled with its debtor, Legendary Investors Group, which has pledged to honor the deal. "We don't want to be renters anymore. SCI-Arc is absolutely committed to downtown," SCI-Arc director Eric Owen Moss told AN when recently discussing the project. Interesting facts about the building: The quarter-mile-long Santa Fe Train Depot was converted into the school's campus in 2000. Built in 1907, the depot was designed by Harrison Albright. At 1,250 feet long, if it were upended, it would be as tall as the Empire State Building.
One Response to "For SCI-Arc, There Is No Place Like Home"
This is great news about SCI-Arc and is the culmination of the end of a five year struggle. Some good things happen as a result of a bad economy. But this is the worst photograph I have seen in a design publication even if it is a blog. Does "blog" somehow mean bad photography? As an architectural photographer I am wondering how something like this could happen. Help me out.

'Yggdrasill' was the band's second demo (following 1991's feet-finding 'Nema'), showing a young band with great passion & creativity. The songs were understandably raw & contained some traits of the Norwegian wave of black metal sweeping the region at the time, along with their own individual touch. Although more focused on Viking/Norwegian lore than anything satanic, Enslaved's signature sound still captured the magic of the genre with long, hypnotic compositions losing the listener within their vast sonic landscapes.
Yggdrasill VINYL
Enslaved was formed in June 1991 by Ivar Bjørnson and Grutle Kjellson when they were 13 and 17 years old, respectively. The band name was inspired by an Immortal demo track, "Enslaved in Rot". After many line-up changes throughout their career, Bjørnson and Kjellson are the only remaining original members. By 2004 the line-up solidified with guitarist Arve "Ice Dale" Isdal, drummer Cato Bekkevold, and keyboardist/vocalist Herbrand Larsen.READ MORE

If My Flight Isn't Canceled…
I will have a lengthy post up first thing Friday morning about my experience on Good Morning America. Here's the link in case you slept in or were busy feeding cattle or eating waffles and/or Ding Dongs:
But before I can think about that, the tires of the aircraft in which I hope to travel home today must touch down safely on Oklahoma soil…er, pavement. If the aircraft could then stop somewhere on the runway, I would be greatly appreciative.
And if that goes according to plan…
This is what will be in my arms this evening:
(I was really torn about which order to place the following photos. Rather than try to explain my reasoning behind the current order, I'll just give the standard disclaimer "in no particular order" and let you enjoy the rest of your day in peace.)
(Trust me. You don't really want to know my thinking most of the time.)
Him. My baby. My youngest. My love.
Her. My girl. My oldest. My sweet.
Him. My heart. I wonder if his teeth grew back in the 48 hours I was gone?
I really hope they didn't.
Her. My soul. She's text messaged me 4,049 times since I've been gone, give or take.
She might need to step away from the cell phone for a week or two.
Or should I say 'it"?
It misses his mama. She's the only one who feeds it Li'l Smokies by the handful.
And him. The guy in the goatee.
And speaking of that guy in the goatee…
I just called him to tell him about the weather and the prospect of my flight getting canceled or delayed. As we were saying goodbye, I pulled a Last of the Mohicans on him and yelled, "Just STAY ALIVE no matter what occurs! I WILL find you!"
Then he said, "Okie dokie, then…see you tonight."
Then I yelled, "No matter how long it takes, not matter how far…I WILL find you!"
And he said, "Alrighty then" and hung up.
The End.

The "Alright then" is my husband's standard good-bye when he is at work. Although he has his own office and I am in a cub sitting amongst all my co-workers I say "Love you." And he replies "Alright then." I have to guess it means "love you too." in man speak.

Too funny on the "Last of the Mo…" lines, love that movie – we use those lines in "chatter" too – very funny. Safe travels. I don't make cinnamon rolls,but your clip ALMOSt encourages me to try!

Ree – i so enjoyed seeing you on GMA. I also enjoyed that on my cable the description of GMA that morning was "Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond" – you were the headliner according to Comcast.
you make me laugh constantly with you honest blogging. The part where you said "oh…hi George" above made me think about Dirty Dancing when Baby gets invited to the dancers party and she says "I carried a watermellon". Funny!

Read your site so much but just had to take the post plunge today, when I read your last comments to your husband from the airport. Daniel Day-Lewis is must see viewing with my adult daughters and me. But all these yrs. for some reason, we thought he was saying "Just SPIT no matter what occurs! I will find you!" It was one of our favorite family insider movie quotes, until one daughter's boyfriend gently said, "Uhhh Honey. . . I think he's saying 'Just STAY ALIVE' not 'Spit!'" Ruined it for us. But he still wears buckskin well.

Thank you! For a great hobby. For a wonderful distraction every day from a very stressful life. For giving me an alter ego life to dream about happening.
And thank you for the FOOD IDEAS! Bless you for them.

The South Carolina Chamber of Commerce, the state's unified voice of business, has released its 2013 Legislative Year In Review and Scorecard, with 30 legislators earning perfect scores.
Included on the list were Rep. Bill Crosby and Rep. Samuel Rivers.
Through the South Carolina Chamber of Commerce's direct advocacy efforts at the State House in 2013 and through strong business alliances with other industry trade associations, South Carolina will benefit from more than $1.4 billion in legislative changes designed to make businesses more competitive and profitable.
Each legislative session, the Chamber tracks key business roll call votes and tallies them to determine an overall score for each member of the General Assembly. In 2013, the Chamber tracked key votes on a variety of business issues, including: infrastructure funding, the Department of Employment and Workforce Integrity bill, expanding 4-year-old Kindergarten and funding for the Manufacturing Skills Standard Council, among other business priorities.
Sen. Sean Bennett of Dorchester County was also on the list, as were Sen. Chip Campsen and Reps. Bobby Harrell, Chip Limehouse and Mike Sottile of Charleston.
