Section 5.7.6
Considerations for Meetings outside the USA
A. Considerations Before Organizing the European Event
1. Setting the Date:
- Bear in mind the busy periods such as school vacations, national holidays and/or bank holidays, and religious festivals. Organizing a conference during those periods might create a shortage of transport and accommodation.
- Check whether similar conferences or trade shows are taking place at the same time which then could either benefit or disadvantage yours.
2. Selection of the adequate meeting site:
- Easily accessible location:How many times does one have to change flights? How far is the meeting site from the airport?
NOTE: European hotels do not often offer shuttle buses from the airport and back.
- Political Stability/Security: Political Stability may be an issue in some countries. Is the site located in a country with terrorist activity?
- Inviting and affordable site: Remember that a meeting in Europe will have to offer the participants something that will encourage them to come even though it might cost more.
- Dates of vacations and Off-days
3. Selection of a venue and negotiations:
American-owned hotels located in Europe usually offer fairly similar accommodations to their counterparts in the US. However, take into consideration:
- Is the hotel experienced in holding conferences?
- Size of sleeping rooms: Rooms in European hotels are usually small. NOTE: In smaller hotels the bathroom might be located on the same floor and will have to be shared with others.
- Hotel and Room services: Many European hotels do not offer additional services such as 24 hour room service or health club.
- Meeting rooms: Older or more traditional hotels do not have professional in-house meeting rooms. More modern or American-owned hotels usually offer meeting rooms. For bigger meetings Congress Centers might be an attractive option.
- Location of meeting rooms: Do the meeting rooms meet your membership's standards, such as adequate accessories, flexible spacing and Air Conditioning? Are they located on the same floor or do the participants have to constantly use the elevators.
- Is there plenty of parking? (Is it free of charge and is it close to the hotel?) For example, many hotels in the center of Paris do not have parking at all or have parking that is far away from the hotel.
- Are there places of interest nearby, or does the hotel offer recreational facilities for the participants or anyone accompanying them.
- Does the hotel have a hair salon and is there a shoe-cleaning and clothes-pressing service?
- Negotiations: Usually European hotels charge for the meeting rooms. It will be up to the person incharge of organizing the conference to negotiate free meeting rooms, free rooms for staff and reduced room rates. Also negotiate on the deposit that is required. Make it clear, to both participants and the hotel, who is paying for what and how the bills are going to be settled.
- How early do the reservations need to be made and what is the cancellation policy?
B. Things to consider once you selected your venue site
1. Transportation:
Meeting participants should be able to access the designated meeting site with ease. Carefully evaluate the transportation facilities to and from the meeting site:
- Transportation by air
- Ground transportation:
- Will the hotel provide a shuttle bus for the meeting participants? If not, are taxis readily available and what is the cost? What are the other transportation modes, such as public transport? Is it easily understood and accessible? Consider working with an outside organization to provide buses from the airport.
- Trains are more important in Europe than in America. They are fast and efficient. See Eurail for more information.
- Cars
2. Planning the program for the meeting:
- The program must contain all the information the participants require to make the most of the conference. A well produced program will often be kept as a souvenir and shown to colleagues back home. NOTE: the program reflects the image of those who organized and took part in the conference. Several items should be taken into account when you set up your agenda for the conference:
- "Jet Lag": allow sufficient time for your US and Asian participants to recuperate from their travel. Do not schedule the most important meeting the first day or two. Provide adequate free time for attendees.
- Depending on the country the lunch and dinner times may vary. In most southern European countries people have dinner around 8.00 PM. In some countries even later, for example in Spain and Portugal (dinner usually does not start before 9.00 PM). Many Europeans also take more time to have lunch. In most European countries lunch or dinner is a social event. Consider this when you plan the program. People need to know when they will be fed, where the meals are to be taken and at what times. It is also important to make clear who is required to pay for what and whether alcoholic beverages are included in the price.
- Another important fact to consider is that your participants are in a country they might not visit again in the near future. Allow sufficient time in your program for sight-seeing. A night-out could be a welcomed event.
- European meetings tend to be much more formal in both personal communication and dress codes. Always remember to address people by their proper names and titles. Familiarize yourself with the business language and the meeting terminology.
- On-site translators: Simultaneous translation: usually requires at least two translators per language. The cost of a simultaneous translator for one day (approx. 6 hours) is around US $ 500. Consider translating your hand outs and audio-visual materials into the main EU languages which are French, German and English. Copies of the speeches should be made available to the participants.
C. Money
1. Charges and Costs:
- VAT: What percentage fee is charged as the VAT?
Europe is slowly but surely moving toward a single system of VAT in the European Union. A common legal framework is needed for VAT because in a true internal market, there can be no room for different VAT treatment of identical transactions. VAT rates may vary between 15-20%. The EU has introduced a minimum rate of 15% but exceptions remain in some countries.
- VAT recovery: Usually national governments require that organizers register for VAT above a certain threshold (turnover). An Example of reclaiming VAT in Britain:
Who qualifies for a Refund?
The company or individual:
- Needs to be registered for business purposes in their own country must not be eligible for VAT registration in the U.K.
- Must not have their bills paid by an independent or subsidiary company based in the U.K.
- The minimum amount which can be claimed is 130 (US $ 230) per quarter, (except inthe final quarter where the amount may be as low as 16 (US $30)), but no more than four claims may be made in any one year. Also, the claim must cover a period of at least three months and no more than the full prescribed year.
- What expenses can be claimed? Hotel accommodations, meals, secretarial services, conference facilities and car hire are usually refundable. Most entertainment expenses do not qualify.
NOTE: the scheme does not apply to spouses, accompanying persons or guests of the claimant.
- Payment terms of conference centers Consider timely hiring a local tax expert to assist and review the impact of VAT and taxes on the meeting budget.
2. Currency Handling:
- Currency allowances in and out of country can be determined by working with your staff link.
- Credit Cards have become more accepted in Europe. NOTE: They still do not hold the same place in Europe as in the US. It is only recently that credit cards have become a more accepted mode of payment. We encourage you to accept types of credit cards. (American Express is now less accepted than VISA or Mastercard/Eurocard)
- Traveller's Cheques can only be exchanged in banks and are often not accepted in hotels or local stores and restaurants.
- Bank transfers: very popular as payment within a European country, but international transfers are slow and costly, usually the cost is very high because both the sender and the receiver are charged by the bank. Ask advise before hand.
- Eurocheque: typical European way to provide payment, but the use is currently reduced due to charge for writing Eurocheques over a certain amount per year.
- Post Giro (Postal Cheque): they can be cashed in other countries but it involves a lot of bureaucracy and is not recommended.
- Bank Cheques: the cost for cashing and writing them depends on the currency and/or your bank. If you draw a cheque in a different European currency it is more difficult to assess.
3. Customs:
- The shipping of documents from the US is not as easy as it might seem. The meeting planner will have to understand customs laws and regulations:
- National Customs regulations: each country has its own, once inside the EU you can freely circulate from country to country that are part of the EU.
- What assistance can the Convention and Visitors Bureau provide?
- Customs Broker
- Will on-site printing of the meeting materials be quicker and less expensive. NOTE: the paper size is different in Europe, two hole punch.
- Required shipping time: Surface mail might be the cheapest way to send your materials but you might not have them in time. Airmail can take up to two weeks. Safest would be by overnight courier: options, guaranteed arrival.
4. Insurance/ Taxes/ Legal issues:
Will be developed by SIG Staff Liasion for each conference. Please ask for assistance.
D. Details to consider to make your meeting a success
1. Equipment:
- Electrical Compatibility:
American-made equipment is made to run on 110 Volts. European equipment uses 220 - 240 Volts. Europe has different plugs than America. NOTE: the plugs vary depending on countries within Europe.
- Equipment Compatibility:
Not all equipment is interchangeable, two examples are Video cassettes. The type formats can vary from PAL, Secam and VHS.
- Measurements:
In most European countries everything is measured in the decimal system except in Ireland and the UK.
2. Security and Medical Considerations:
- Availability of prescriptions
- Doctors and Hospitals
- Medical Assistance to travellers
- Insurance per participant is recommended
- Medical Considerations- Eastern Europe
- Medical Considerations- Western Europe
3. Marketing the meeting:
- A publicity program needs to be activated as soon as the conference is confirmed. Potential sponsors, participants and delegates have to be informed of the event and encouraged to participate. Corporate and University supporters as well as co-sponsors want to see the conference well-publicised. In return for their financial support they expect their name to be prominently displayed on conference literature.
- Have you prepared the appropriate mailing lists? Specialist lists can be purchased, but you need to make sure that they are exactly what you want and that they have been updated recently and list full and correct addresses.
- Participants may need different types of information about the meeting and your meeting site. You need to take into account that mailings take longer, air mail can take up to 10 to 14 days and surface mail up to one month or longer, as do the responses. Additional time must be planned for the marketing and the processing of responses or information materials.
- If people have to send back responses it might be helpful to consider a local address. This will make the processing faster and your response rate higher.
- Modify your envelope to have a larger address window. European addresses tend to be much longer. If people can not read the contact person's name or the country your mailing will get lost or arrive too late.
- What language are you going to send your materials in? Most Europeans speak English but not all of them, consider translating your materials into German and French as well.
- Do not just translate the words, be sure you are getting the same message across.
- Go to straight forward text, and make the sentences short and concise.
- Use simple every day words and do not use American-clever oriented marketing angles, Europeans might not understand the phrase: "Catch 22"
- Do not use slang, sometimes it cannot be translated or does not mean the same thing after the translation.
- Avoid abbreviations such as "don't" or "I'll"
- Spelling, make a choice of American or English and stay with that way of spelling.
- Start early, advertising overseas needs more planning and needs to begin up to 6 months earlier.
4. Advising the participants:
- Clothing: Europeans tend to be more formal than Americans. Specify what to wear for which event .
NOTE: terminology can be different. Sportcoat and business casual will not be understood by many Europeans. Be very specific.
- Weather: The climates may vary depending on which part of Europe you plan the conference. Advise American participants on what the climate and weather conditions are like.
- Visas (if required): You can obtain this information from the American Embassy.
- Currency exchange and tipping Exchange Rates
- Role of Concierge is much more important!
E. Wrapping up afterwards
Checklist of things that need to be considered after the meeting:
- Often it will be necessary for the conference organizer to stay one or two days post conference to supervise the practical aspects of clearing up and returning hired equipment.
- When is hired equipment to be collected?
- Can any signs be reused? Make a list and make sure they are all collected.
- How are the payments to be settled? And by when?
- Compile reports very soon after the conference.
- Write thank you letters to suppliers, service personnel and speakers.
- Your final task will be to evaluate your conference and provide a final report including suggested changes for the future.

Awarded Super Classic Status.
A mild spring was followed by a sunny summer and a lingering dry autumn. It was a perfect growing season with enough warmth to produce optimal ripeness but it was not too hot to destroy varietal purity or freshness.
We have about a dozen different clones of pinot noir and often these grow intermingled throughout our various blocks. The vines, many of which are nearly 30 years old and on their own roots, grow on a series of north facing, gradually descending terraces. While the site is warm during the day it is cool at night. This allows the fruit to ripen fully but slowly and to retain good acid levels of natural acidity. The drainage is helped by stones intermingled with the soil.
We use traditional Burgundian winemaking methods. We picked the various blocks at different stages during late April and early May, depending on their maturity. Most of the grapes were destemed and put into small fermenting vats, retaining as many whole berries as possible. Ten percent of whole bunches were also added to these vats. They were kept cool over the next few days to help extract the soft, silky tannins from the pinot noir skins. After this time the grapes warmed enough to start fermenting. During fermentation the floating cap of grape skins was twice daily gently pushed back under the wine by hand to keep it moist and healthy. When the fermentation finished the vats were sealed and the grape remnants were left to steep in the wine for up to a week to help extract a different range of tannins that add structure and depth. The duration of this period was determined by daily tasting. Subsequently the wine was gently pressed off and put into oak barriques (30% new) from selected artisan Burgundian coopers. In the summer after harvest, when the weather warmed, the wine underwent malo-lactic (secondary) fermentation. Both this and the original fermentation phase were completely natural and without added micro-organisms. After maturing for 18 months in these barriques the batches made from the many different plots of pinot were carefully blended in varying portions to produce this wine.
The upfront aromas and flavours suggest raspberry, pomegranate, black cherry, purple plum, chocolate and spice. These overlie savoury hints of barbecued meats, grilled mushrooms and black olive tapenade. It is richly textured and mouth filling with powerful but velvety tannins that flow evenly through the palate, helping to draw out the lingering aftertaste. While ready to drink on release it can be expected to cellar well and evolve gracefully for many years.
Awarded Super Classic Status.
"The flight of Pegasus Bay Pinot Noirs continued to illustrate their burgundy influence, the reds often reminiscent of Morey-saint-Denis".
"Felton Road, along with Pegasus Bay has been my favourite pinot producer in New Zealand for years."
"The oak control is phenomenal, showing more elegance and sophistication than hundreds of Burgundies"
Pegasus Bay is the flagship winery of Waipara, yet the wines remain realistically priced. Plum, cola and cherry notes are accompanied by strongly umami sensations akin to mushroom and roasted beef, giving this wine ample complexity. While the wine is concentrated, it has an airy, graceful feel to it. Drink 2016–2024.
A sense of real depth, soothing dark cherry notes, some forest floor and deeply knitted oak. The palate has noble tannins and the sort of structural complexity and completeness that is the envy of most other NZ Pinot Noir makers" .
Full-flavoured Pinot Noir with plum, spice, glazed cherry, floral/violet and a hint of savoury and mineral character. Mouth-filling wine with obvious power and a lengthy finish. A consistently top wine.
"Fine, fresh, vivid and interesting with an assertive cherry fruit nose. Lovely supple, elegant palate shows nice precision. Lovely sweet fruit combined with spicy structure".
Lifted spicy cherry fruit on the nose with higher tones of raspberry coulis and cranberry…. Lively and driven on the palate, the red fruits show supporting characters of Asian spice and a waft of forest floor. Roast game, red licorice, milk chocolate and spicy oak complete the picture. Great line, lively acidity and a balanced, lingering finish".

Get the best life insurance for your needs from the best broker in America!
Don't delay. Call today: 1.800.939.0710
We help families like yours across the US find the best insurance coverage!
We all know the importance of life insurance. It is essential to cover yourself and protect your family with a replacement source of income in case of your death. And now, it is easier than ever to find the coverage that fits your needs and fits your budget.
Life insurance is the ideal way to guarantee replacement of your income when you die. Coverage is critical for anyone with dependents: children or, for example, a spouse who has limited earning potential or who is unable to work due to lack of training, disability, or other reasons.
Consider the countless ways your family depends on your income: for example, to pay the mortgage on your family home…make monthly payments on one or more cars…and simply cover the day-to-day cost of living. Your income is also likely the source of your children's college education funds. (And, of course, their future earning potential depends on their education.)
In addition, we must all plan for our own medical and funeral expenses. When you die, the responsibility to pay for your hospital or homecare services, plus the cost of your funeral and your cremation or burial, falls to your family. The payout from your life insurance policy can help your beneficiaries cover those expenses with no worries.
Coverage for all kinds of people.Your needs, budget, age, and health status determine how many insurance choices you will have.
For example, if you are younger and in good health, you will likely have your choice of many insurance plans from among the two main types of coverage: term (which lasts for a specific period of time) or permanent (which is also called whole life insurance and pays a benefit when you die and also accrues savings you can borrow or take as the policy's "cash value"). We can help you get the best coverage for your needs at the best possible rates.
If you are older, don't worry. Some insurance carriers simply don't offer coverage to older people. But we can help you find those that do.
Even if you have medical complications that have made getting life insurance difficult in the past, we may be able to help you finally get coverage.
Or if you need insurance coverage right away—like starting today—we may be able to help.
Other people want insurance without the need for a medical examination. For personal or religious reasons, they must avoid physical exams, needles, blood tests, urine tests, and other procedures. Most insurance companies require a medical exam: an appointment with a doctor, lab tests, blood pressure tests, and more. However, not all insurance carriers have these requirements. If needed, we'll help you find insurance with no medical examination needed.
Still other people are unable or unwilling—or simply don't want—to fill out insurance company questionnaires. Here again, LifeInsuranceBroker.us can help. We'll find alternatives that don't require extensive paperwork…in fact, don't require paperwork at all, just a few simple questions you can answer online or on the phone with a licensed agent.
And some people may have a terminal illness and are planning ahead by designating the death benefit from their insurance policy specifically to pay for their hospital or homecare charges and funeral expenses. We can help.
Whatever your needs, whatever your situation, we can help you find the right type of policy to protect your family and give you peace of mind.
Outstanding options for all budgets
At LifeInsuranceBroker.us, we are committed to helping all people—regardless of their situation, regardless of their budget—find insurance coverage that meets their unique needs.
Looking for insurance that has a substantial premium and pays top dollar upon your death? We can help.
Looking for more than one policy, perhaps both permanent and term, to protect your family and assets? We can help.
Or looking for something more modest? A policy that costs less than a cup of coffee per day but still pays a substantial benefit? At LifeInsuranceBroker.us, we can help.
From the most extensive—and the most expensive—to the most cost-effective, we can help you find the best coverage that fits your finances.
Getting a quote is free and easy.We provide quotes free of charge. And with fast, friendly service online, on the phone, or in person, if needed.

A short fantasy tale in verse for young children, with a few tunes about the story performed by T. Moody. Andy and his dog Shadow like to go wandering. Usually, they find someone who needs help and Andy is always willing to do what he can. Sometimes that works out and sometimes it does not. In this tale, they find themselves in a beautiful orchard owned by a very large giant. When Andy agrees to watch the orchard while the giant goes to visit his sister, he has no idea how much trouble this would be. But as in all the tales, there is a common sense lesson to be learned.

mill site. A part of the mill foundation wall was there twenty five years ago, and some old scrap metal was there. This mill ceased to operate about 1875. The old mill house stood until about 1898.
I am just about sure that the stones from this mill were moved to Perrins Mill near Paineville about 1902. The road from Paineville to Jetersville passes close to this mill site. I feel sure that the mill was there first and roads were built to the mill which later became this public road.
A great many people convicted of petty offenses in England were transported to the American colonies and to Australia and were held in bondage and worked just as we work convicts on roads and other places now. I read of one who was transported for stealing a pie from a baker's cart on the street in England. I have been informed that some of these convicted people from Great Britain were brought to that frontier county of Amelia and compelled to work building the dam for Jeters Mill, and probably worked on the mill also. What an undertaking it must have been to build a mill away {sic} out in the wilderness when many of the parts had to be made from wood. With very little iron and steel and only a few poorly equipped blacksmith shops a long way off.
Although this mill was not built by Jeters it was operated by them for many years. This mill was called Grove Mill and the home of Tilmon Jeter, who owned and operated the mill. Mill Grove was operated as a tavern for many years. This house is now the home of Mr. Reps Jeter. The last member of that well known and pioneer family of Jeters in Amelia County to operate this mill was Dr. Jim Jeter who was an old man in 1900. He learned denistry {sic s/b dentistry} before the Civil War. (He probably went to college in Baltimore). It seems that he practiced denistry {sic s/b dentistry}.
It was in these trying times of poverty and in many cases of want and hardship that this old mill on Flatt Creek was allowed to go down. The dam is there and the canal that leads to the mill site is there to remind future generations that this is the place where many thousands of bushels of wheat and corn were ground long before the War of the Revolution, and long after.
Neals Branch Mill. A mill was located on Neals Branch, about two miles southeast of Paineville. This was probably as old as Woods Mill. I have never been able to find out who built it or operated it. It was probably a small corn mill that did not operate after 1800. I am not sure of this.
Both ends of the dam are there and a canal leads from the south end of the high dam along a steep side of a hill and comes to an abrupt end. No trace of a mill is to be seen. This mill site is about two miles west of the place where Neals Branch flows into Flatt Creek.
Mr. Josephus Walthall lived on the farm that this mill was located on
up to about 1905, and his family lived there for many years before his
birth, but I have never heard that this was Walthall's Mill. I
have heard that an almost grown boy named Chappell was drowned in this
mill pond while tending fish traps.
Clementown Mill. A town was chertered {sic s/b chartered} to be built here in 1794. The mill was probably built before 1794. Marriage records show that Edward Booker married Mary Clement in 1783, and she was a daughter of Isham Clement, and Thomas Whitworth was surety. No doubt this mill was built by this family of Clements. It was on the Appomattox River and was a corn and four {sic s/b flour} mill, which was an important mill for many years. I am of the opinion that it did not operate continuously up to the time it burned about 1930. Clementown Mill was located about five or six miles northest of Paineville. I never heard that a town was built there. For many years it was operated by the Brezeal family.
Stoney Point Mill. This was a corn and flour mill and was on the Appomattox River about seven or eight miles northeast {sic s/b north east} of Paineville, and about a mile and a half below the mouth of Sandy Creek. I am of the opinion that a mill was built here in colonial times. After the Civil War it seems that the mill was rebuilt by Dr. Richard Wood, who lived on a large farm in Amelia about two miles or less east of this mill. I have been told that Dr. Wood was intelligent enough to foresee the coming of the Civil War and its after effects and that he sold most of his slaves, was paid for them in gold, and deposited his money in the Bank of England. When the War was over he had money. His neighbors (one of them my grandfather) had experience. I have been told that a cigar factory operated at Stony Point before the Civil War. No doubt this was true. No other information about it.
I am writing of this mill at Stony Point although it was not in Amelia County but on the Cumberland side of the River. This mill was not as large as Clementown Mill. Stony Point Mill was destroyed by fire about 1931. These two pioneer mills have very probably gone forever. Not much chance of either of them being rebuilt. Thad Davis was the last owner of Stony Point Mill.
Wileys Mill Wileys Mill was a water operated corn mill located on Mill Creek about two miles northwest of Paineville. I have heard that it was built by Tilmon Jeter and have heard it was built by John Wiley. I am not sure which report was right. For a long time it was operated by the Wiley family. The older people called it Wiley's Mill long about {sic} 1900.
Henry Thompson owned and operated it about 1880, when it was burned. The report was that a negro woman got angry with Thompson and burned his mill. It was rebuilt and a little later was bought by Mr. Sam Perrin, of Amelia, who was then a prosperous cotton farmer of Mississippi. Later it became the property of Mr. Eddie Perrin, who operated it many years as a corn mill.
About 1902 this mill was enlarged and became a flour mill also. A
steam engine was installed for motive power, which also ran a sawmill
alongside the mill. It was not much of a success as a flour mill,
although it operated up to about 1910. A newcomer to Amelia named
Dennison then owned it, and it was operated as a corn mill to about
1917 by a colored man, Thomas Waddell. About this time the large
(about 17 foot diameter) wooden overshot water wheel fell to pieces,
and this was the end.
As stated before, the mill stones from Jeters mill on Flatt Creek were installed in Perrins mill about 1{8}02. This mill is now (1942) just an old wreck, decayed and abandoned and overgrown with bushes. This was not as old as some of the other mills, was probably built about 1800. The exact date is not known by me.
It seems that these mills of Amelia could not survive in competition in a fast moving world. Much that is interesting to the student of history was connected with these picturesque old mills, such as this one that served so long and so well and passed on. The dam of this mill backed water for almost a mile, and what a wonderful mill pond it was. We boys had such a grand time bathing in it and fishing in it. We used to haul ice from it that was as much as five and a half inches thick. White people and negroes used it to baptise {sic s/b baptize} in, and two boats floated on it.
A man named Sumner bought this mill farm and while there he cut the dam about the middle in order to farm the land that was under water. I have been told that a great roaring flood of water went down the creek into Stocks Creek and into Appomattox River. The forebay or patcock was at the east end of this dam. A spillway was at the west end.
I am informed that this mill could grind about 20 bushels or more of corn in a ten hour day. Mill toll was one-eighth.
Chaffins Mill This mill was on the same creek that Wileys Mill was on, and was not more than a mile down the creek. I have seen this mill site only once. A part of the dam is there and the canal that runs along the western slope of the creek, for a considerable ways, below the dam.
This was an old mill, probably much older than Wiley's. I do not know when it was built or when it ceased to operate. I feel sure it was just a corn mill and went down along about 1800. I am not sure of the date. Records show that Chaffins lived in Amelia in 1794, and in 1811 Joshua Chaffins name was on Jeters Shop ledger.
I have been told that there was a mill on this same creek below Chaffins mill. I never was able to find out about it. I have never seen the place it was. An old mill was located somewhere near Paineville, Munfords (Mumvords) Mill, but I am not sure where the exact location was. I don't know when it was built or when it ceased to operate. Three mill sites on the same creek in a distance of not more than two miles is unusual. Probably, as one went down, another was built.
Farmers Mill This corn mill was on a creek that flowed into Flat Creek about three miles or more west of Jetersville, Virginia. I know very little of this mill. I have never been there. I think it was an old mill. To the best of my information it ceased to operate in 1907.
Morrisette's Mill. I have the history of this old mill from Mr.
Morrisette written in December 1941. It was built in 1766 by a
man named Motley. Then it was owned by Gills. The it was owned by
Gills and Hillsman. Then it was owned by R. H. Walton. Mr.
Morrisette bought it in 1913. This is a flour and
corn mill and is still in operation now. (1942) It is on a creek, I think it is Sailor Creek. An engine is installed here to be used when the water is too low to be used.
Chapman's Mill This was a small corn mill, built probably about 1890, by William Chapman. It was on a fork of Sandy Creek near Deatonville. It seems that it ceased to operate about 1903. The farm on which this mill was built was before that time, the farm of John Johnson, who was the father of my grandmother. All of his children were born and raised there.
About the time the Civil War started the second and third largest flour mills in the country were in Richmond. These were the Gallego Mills and the Haxall Mills. One of these could grind one hundred and ninety thousand barrels of flour a year, and the other one hundred and sixty thousand barrels. The flour from these mills was world famous, especially suited to tropical countries.
Link Lockettes Mill I have been informed by Mr. Billy Farley of Amelia who is now 82 years of age, that this mill was on Little Sailors Creek. It was patronized by my great grandfather, John Johnson, who lived not far from it on Sandy Creek. Mr. Farley says it ceased to operate about 1885. The dam remained a long time after this and was washed away in a flood about 1900. The Lockett families and the Johnson family were neighbors and friendly. The owner of the mill was probably named Lincoln Lockett. (John Johnson's father was Richard Johnson, who wrote his will in December 1817. This will was witnessed and signed by Herndon Green, John Lockett and James Lockett.)
I think this was a flour and corn mill, but I am not sure of this. It could have been only a corn mill. I have heard Uncle Jack Johnson say he was taken to this mill by his father and it was the first mill he ever saw.
Bridgeforths Mill This is a very old mill, and is in operation now (1942). It is located on Beaver Pond Creek in the eastern part of Amelia. For many years it was operated by the Bridgeforth family and for many years by the Archer family. It was a flour and corn mill. My wife's father, Robert C. Elliot, operated this mill from 1909 to about 1919.
A member of our Johnson family named Joel and a Miss Bridgeforth were drowned in this mill pond while skating on it about 1901. This was a very sad accident. These young people were not grown. Joel was a son of Leonidas (called "Bose") Johnson. {SSS Note -- Bessie Mottley compiled a record of the descendants of Benjamin Bailey. In this record, she states that on 28 Feb 1918, Joel Allen Johnson (b. 23 Jan 1881) drowned while trying to rescue his sister, Mary Michael Johnson Boisseau (b. 10 Nov 1882 - d. 28 Feb 1918), wife of Robert Bridgforth Boisseau. Joel and Mary had a brother named Leonidas Parker Johnson (b. 27 Jun 1885), and other siblings. They were the children of Thomas Edward Johnson (20 Jul 1846 - 6 Jun 1919) and Elizabeth Spencer Rowlett (12 Sep 1851 - 6 Jun 1926). } (Note: Roller mills were first put in operation in Virginia bout {sic} 1870. Up tot hat time stones were used to grind grain, both wheat and corn).
Cotton Factory A cotton factory was located about two miles east
by southeast of Paineville on a small creek that runs east. I am
not sure when it was built. (Probably about 1850. It must
have been only a small factory. It was on a small creek that did
not furnish much waterpower. Parts of a dam are there now.
I have been told that this factory was owned and operated by a man
named Ford. Mr. Howell Davis, who was born at this place about
1860, told me that when a boy he helped to take down this old factory
building. I am of the opinion that it ceased to operate before
Except during the Civil War and during or right after World War I, cotton has never been raised in any quantity about Paineville, so far as I have any knowledge of. It was out of the cotton growing section, which was probably one reason it was not a success and did not operate long. I wish I could give more details o{f} this factory.
I was informed by Mr. Howell Davis that a silk mill was built here by a man named Simmons, and operated by him. It is certain that silk worms were raised here.
Where were these mills? It is very difficult, if not impossibly, to be sure where these old mills were located. This old Amelia County order book only informs us that they were on such a creek and on the lands or name of owner is given, and the name of the person or persons whose lands will be covered by the mill pond.
The early Colonial Church in Virginia
When Amelia was formed in 1734 there was only one parish and this was Raleigh Parish. After the population of this parish and county had increased greatly or in 1748 Nottoway Parish was cut off from Raleigh Parish. The year after this division of Raleigh Parish into Nottoway and Raleigh Parishes the "Church of England" or the established church which was the Episcopal Church, commenced to build a large church at a place now called Paineville. The writer of this was born and raised in Paineville, but is unable to say which was built first, the church or the village. (A full History of the Paineville Church will follow later.)
A parish was a church subdivision division {sic} of a county and contained one or more churches and ministers. It will be shown in this history that the church then had many powers and privileges and responsibilities which it does not have now.
In these early days a person had to contribute to the church whether or not he wanted to. He did not pay in money but in tobacco. He was assessed so many pounds of tobacco a year. This amount of tobacco varied from year to year. The ministers were paid in tobacco also, and furnished a place to live which was called a "Glebe." Many details of these payments in tobacco will be given later. There were no poorhouses then. The parishes and the church had to look after the poor and the indigent orphans and widows and sometimes the sick. The church operated ferries, and buried some of the dead. It did many other things. Here is an interesting example of what the church was called to do.
Date 1720, Bristol Parish, which is now Amelia or Nottoway
County. It is ordered and Mr. Luis Green, church warden, is
hereby empowered by this vestry to attach and "Seese" so much of the
estate of John E. Ellis, Jr. to the value of three thousand pounds of
tobacco and cost and make returns to the vestry.
Note: John Ellis, Jr. refused to pay a doctors bill for attending his son who had a broken leg. The church employed a Dr. Jos. Irby and paid him two thousand pounds of tobacco for attending to this son of John Ellis, Jr. The son's name was also John Ellis. This is the only record of which the writer is aware in which the church levied on the seized private property.
History of Old Paineville Church
When I was a boy at Paineville people used to wonder when the old church was built, but none of them knew. Years later I read in Bishop Mead's {sic s/b Meade's} book "Old Virginia Churches and Homes" that it was built in 1749 or 1750 at a place since called Paineville.
There was a grave yard just south of the church, but tobacco and other crops grew where the cemetery used to be, and I never saw any sign of a grave or a grave stone there. A very large oak tree stood about 150 feet south of the west end of the church up to about 1893, when it was sawed down. This was probably in the cemetery.
I have heard my grandmother say a three day debate was held in this old church between Dr. Thomas and Alexander Campbell. I have heard from another source that Dr. Thomas was completely crushed in the debate. Later {on} he published his denominational paper in Paineville. At the time of this debate the Campbellite Church split off from the Thomsite Church. Campbellite Church since has been called Christian Church.
Some thought that a corner stone of the church should contain some relics of interest. Nothing of this nature was ever found so far as I ever heard, anyone say. Not all churches have cornerstones. It seems this one did not.
Immediately after the Civil War the old church was used as a school house. Miss Bessie Tuttle was the first public school teacher there. Her brother, Ben Tuttle also taught school there.
A brilliant young medical doctor, Moses Fort Thomas Evans, commenced to practice medicine at Paineville about 1843. He was from South Carolina, was educated for a doctor in Philadelphia. His first wife, who was from Philadelphia, was a Miss Tuttle or Stockton.
The old church was used as a place of worship a part of the time and from time to time up to about 1885, Bishop Meade says that about the last one to conduct a Sunday School and Church there was Bishop Chevers. He gave it up after about two years. I have been informed that Reverend Wilkins preached here about 1880 during a revival.
For many years this church was used as a wheel wright {sic s/b wheelwright} and coffin shop by Mr. Charles Selden Seay. Exact dates not know. Probably from about 1884 to 1912.
It was a frame building, weatherboarded {sic s/b weather
boarded}. It had a shingle roof, that leaked. Mr. Seay's
sons, Ernest and Hugh, singled the eastern half of the
north side of the roof about 1899. At this time it contained no benches or pulpit and a few window glasses. Most of the windows were planked up. It was supported on a brick wall, but parts of the wall had been removed, or had been built with open spaces in it. Average height of floor from ground was about two feet or a little more.
The side walls were lathed and plastered, but most of the plaster had come off. Shop forged nails fastened the lathes on. East end of ceiling was lath, the west end was boards. A broad double door was in the west end, a door was in the south side and a narrow door was in the north side, and probably twelve windows.
The girders (that supported the ceiling) were about two feet apart, but the outside cornice as {sic s/b was} so constructed as to cause one to think that these girders were not over about fifteen inches apart or less. Apparently the girders ends projected and were neatly boxed in under the eaves.
I will estimate the size of this church as 62 feet long, east to west; 28 feet wide, north to south; 15 feet high or more, the ceiling.
In November 1900, two men in a top buggy (one horse) came to Paineville with a phonograph or talking machine and a crowd of probably sixty or more people paid ten cents each to hear this machine talk and sing. Mr. Charles Seay fixed benches of boards in the south western corner of the old church and the talking machine was placed near the middle of the church not far from the south wall. The audience faced west. We heard our first talking machine then. One piece played was "Turkey scratching in the straw". Another was "Get out of the way of the girls, boys, and give them room or they will crack you on the head with the butt end of a broom". The owners of the machine were good business men. They started a voting contest at five cents a vote for the prettiest girl and a contest for the most popular girl. Some young men spent all they had to vote as mant {sic s/b many} times as he could get the money to pay. Some of the girls voted for were: Miss Mollie Orange, Miss Clara Wingo, and Miss Estelle Perrin. This was the only audience of any size that the author ever knew to assemble in this old church. A part of the money taken in was given to the local (Union) Sunday School. The old church was lighted by kerosene oil lamps furnished by people who lived near. The room was too large and open, and people less than twenty feet away could scarcely hear the machine, which had a large horn shaped much like a morning glory bloom. This machine used "cylinder" records.
A middle aged man named LeTellier, who had lived on a farm near Paineville came by there about 1900 doing photographic work. He took a picture of this, old church with Mr. Seay standing in a door. This picture was given to Mr. and Mrs. Seay. Mr. C. S. Seay died suddenly in 1914. The picture was given to Mrs. James P. Wingo. It is now in the home of her son, Clifton C. Wingo. I believe this is the only picture in existence of the old church. I am not sure of this.
This church as {sic s/b was} also called Chincopin {sic s/b Chincapin}
or Chinquepin {sic s/b Chinquapin} church. A chincopin {sic s/b
Chincapin} is a nut very much like a chesnut {sic s/b chestnut}, but
smaller. Many of them grow on bushes about Paineville.

CHILDREN said 'bienvenido, benvenuto, willkommen and witam' as they hosted young foreign visitors.
The hand of friendship was extended to 30 children and 20 teachers from Spain, Italy, Germany and Poland who visited Weymouth as part of a school cultural exchange.
They were guests of St Augustine's Primary School which hosted the trip as part of the British Council-supported Comenius programme.
The project sees pupils discovering and promoting their own abilities while sharing their cultural heritage and learning about new technologies.
Each school from the participating countries hosts a group for a week under a different theme and this month it was youngsters from St Augustine's turn, working on a theme of 'happy healthy minds'.
Comenius Project Co-ordinator at St Augustine's Gary Ayles said: "Following a flag waving welcome assembly and a tour the pupils joined in classroom activities before taking part in a European 'bake-off' competition at Weymouth College with each country producing a cake recipe from their area.
"The theme of happy healthy minds highlighted the importance of healthy eating and exercise. To help with this the school enrolled in the British Nutrition Foundation Healthy Eating Week and the baking competition was to show pupils different ingredients and to consider how to make cakes healthier. The winning entry was a German apple cake."
Other events included healthy eating workshops with Bigfoot theatre company, a five-a-side football tournament, and a picnic to taste goodies made in the baking contest plus Fairtrade fruit donated by Sainsbury's. There was also a trip to Weymouth Pavilion where youngsters performed in front of an enthusiastic audience of more than 300. It included songs, dancing and even some gymnastics displays.
To round off the week while the visitors were on a sightseeing tour of Weymouth, St Augustine's pupils were visited by GB Olympic and Commonwealth Games 200m sprinter Christian Malcolm.

Nov. 14, 2003
Tallahassee, FL - The NCAA Tournament is just two games old and there have already been two upsets and one of the upsets involved national 10 seed Colorado. Don't think that didn't catch the attention of the sixth-ranked and 11th seeded Seminoles (13-7-1). Florida State opens NCAA Tournament play tonight at 7:00 p.m. against Ivy League champion Dartmouth (9-5-2) and they know better than to underestimate a team that has been to more Sweet 16's in the last five years than FSU has attended in program history.
"They (Dartmouth) are going to be very difficult because they are a great team," said Teresa Rivera. "Any team in the NCAA Tournament is of caliber but I think Dartmouth is as tough as it gets. We better be ready or we could be upset victim number three."
Both squads enter Friday night's match as hot as anyone in the nation as the two teams have combined to go 20-3-3 to finish the year. The strong finishes came after slow starts though as FSU and Dartmouth limped out of the gate to 1-4 and 1-5 starts respectively.
"After we played Kansas we dropped to 1-4," said head coach Patrick Baker. "Dartmouth is similar as they started off 1-5 and have since gone undefeated in their last 10. To remain undefeated through the rigors of the Ivy League schedule is not an easy thing. I see a lot of us in them in the way the seasons unfolded. Both sides are finding ways to win and be successful."
"Knowing the way we responded after a 1-4 start, I give them a lot of credit. It shows me that they fought just as hard as we did to get here," said Camie Bybee.
While Florida State isn't undefeated in their last ten heading into tonight's match, they did post a 12-3-1 record down the stretch with two losses combing by a goal to No. 1 North Carolina and the third by a goal at No. 10 Virginia. The Seminoles stretch run was so impressive that they are now ranked a program-high in all four national polls and they were tabbed an 11th seed by the NCAA. That doesn't mean there weren't some worried players after the slow start.
"I was a little worried. I had only been here for a month or so and I didn't know what this team was capable of," said freshman Julia Schnugg. "Being 1-4 scared me but I have learned to never doubt this team. This is an amazing group of people and I know now that they are able to accomplish anything."
Tonight, FSU will try to build on one of the most impressive showings in school history in the ACC Championships final. Despite losing to North Carolina 3-2, the game was the closest final in 15 years and the Tribe earned respect from all over the soccer world as they led Carolina for almost 30 minutes during the match and were leading or tied with the Tar Heels for 85 of the 90 minutes.
"Tonight I will be looking for a level of excitement from our group. This is what you work so hard for," said Baker. "We are one of just 64 teams in the country still playing and we all have the same goal and that is to be playing Sunday. One of the other things I will be looking for is if we are still playing at the same level we were in Cary (ACC Championships).
"I felt like playing Wake Forest, Maryland and North Carolina for a second time at the ACC Tournament we were better than we were in the first meeting. A lot of teams can't do that three games in a row. We got better and better and better every game and that is exciting for this time of the year. We are playing good soccer yet we keep improving. I will be looking to see if that is continuing tonight."
For the Tribe's success to continue, Schnugg and fellow ACC All-Freshman team member India Trotter and ACC All-Tournament team selection Kelly Rowland need to continue to play at a high level despite being freshman playing in their first NCAA Tournament. After playing UNC in front of 4,400 fans for the ACC Title this past Sunday, the freshmen are still excited for their first taste of the NCAA Tournament.
"I am really excited. This is probably the most excited I have ever been," said Schnugg. "We are at home in front of our crowd on Friday night where we have played well historically. This game can't get here soon enough for me."
As great as it was playing in the ACC final, will that game eventually come back to haunt the Seminoles especially since Dartmouth didn't play in a conference tournament and have stepped out just once in the last 13 days. In that same stretch FSU has played three games against three NCAA Tournament teams.
"There is an advantage to a certain degree to playing a conference tournament but I also think those games can hurt you if you go to the championship," said Baker. "For us we had an extra day of rest after the quarterfinals and that was essential for us to have legs against North Carolina in the final. In the Ivy, the emphasis is on the regular season and that makes them (Ivy League games) so important and there is a little more at stake. For us the ACC Tournament was a good thing this year but that isn't always the case."
One of the advantages of playing the ACC Tournament is that the Tribe has already had a taste of the 'one-and-done' mentality that comes a along with tournament play. Knowing you are 90 minutes away from your season being over requires that players brings a totally different mentality to the pitch.
"The mentality of the tournament is completely different," said Katie Beal. "Everyone knows that if you lose your season is done and they bring their best game. You won't have another chance to step out if you don't get it done."
"Every game is a must win in the NCAA Tournament but we have been in that mode ever since Kansas," said Baker.
The Seminoles have never lost in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in three trips and Baker has a 5-3-0 all-time NCAA Tournament record at Florida State. One of the reasons he believes the team has had success is that three of those five wins have come at the Seminole Soccer Complex.
"When I was at NC Wesleyan I think I was 0-3 in NCAA opening round games," said Baker. "The first game involves a lot of different things. There are nerves. You may be seeing an opponent for the first time ever, which is our case tonight. You don't know what to expect those first few minutes and you just hope you don't give anything away. One of the reasons we have had success is that two of the three opening round games for us have been at home. That means a great deal. We have had success at home, we've had wonderful crowds and we've found ways to win."
Since Baker came to FSU, the Seminoles are 15-1-2 at home on Friday nights and the bigger the crowd, the better they play. Baker's teams have never lost at home on a Friday night when there are more than 1,000 fans in the stands. That has happened four times this season already versus Duke (3-0), Miami (7-1), Maryland (2-1) and NC State (1-0).
"I love playing here on Friday nights," said Rivera. "The lights are on and the fans come out in big numbers. The support we get is great and it makes Friday nights at home very special."
This is the fourth straight trip to the NCAA Tournament for FSU and the first time ever that every player on the roster has been to an NCAA Tournament. Despite playing in two Sweet 16's in the last three years, it is a special time of the year and that doesn't change whether this is your first trip or third and whether you have had success or not.
"It is more exciting every year because you realize that you have one less year to experience NCAA play," said Beal. "For me it gets better and better."
"We are really excited to get back into the tournament and just like the other 64 teams, we want to go as far as we can," said Rivera. "We appreciate getting to the Sweet 16 last year but that is in the past now. It doesn't guarantee us anything this year. We have high expectations of what we are capable of but so does Dartmouth and they have proven that year in and year out."
The NCAA Tournament in Tallahassee begins today at 4:30 p.m. when Big 12 Champion Oklahoma State faces off with Auburn. Tickets are $7.00 and $5.00 for seniors (50+) and students (8-13). There are a limited number of free tickets for Florida State students but they must show their ID at the gate. The ticket is good for both games of Friday's session.
A live stats broadcast of both games will be available at www.seminoles.com, the official athletic website for Florida State University. Check out the NCAA Tournament website on-line.

Mayer is also making real hires, and here again she seems to be looking for names, hiring Alex Stamos this week as chief information security officer.
Stamos is best-known to reporters as co-organizer and host of TrustyCon, a security conference meant to counter the industry's RSA Conference, which critics thought was getting too cozy with government. In response to the TrustyCon threat to its headlines, RSA brought in Stephen Colbert as a speaker to make jokes at the NSA's expense.
Stamos' job will be to make Yahoo itself more trustworthy. He has his work cut out for him, as my daughter learned last week when her email credentials were hacked and her Yahoo! Mail account suddenly started sending spam to her friends.
My daughter's response was to close her Yahoo! account in favor of a Google (GOOG) Gmail account. Yahoo!'s response, so far, has been to stop taking Facebook (FB) and Google sign-ins.
This sums up Yahoo!'s problem under Mayer. There has been a lot of change happening on the surface, a lot of flash, but underneath it's the same old Yahoo! with the same old problems, and the same fading reputation among the young people whose loyalty it needs in order to grow.
That needs to change, soon, or as soon as Alibaba's value is known, the reason to own Yahoo! stock will be gone. Analysts may then start talking about a divorce from the stock, and from Mayer.
At the time of publication, the author owned shares of YHOO and GOOG.

A hybrid watermark that consists of a robust part and a fragile part can be used to serve multiple purposes. The robust part can protect copyright information, the fragile part can detect tampering, and their combination enables identification of attacks encountered. This paper analyses an overlap and a non-overlap implementation of the robust and fragile parts in a hybrid system. The difference between the two implementation methods lies in the robust and fragile watermarks embedding positions. Embedding capacity, computational costs, watermark robustness, and tamper detection localization of the two implementations are analyzed. In addition, optimization issues of block size in the hybrid system are discussed.

The one-circuit hydraulic system for MERCEDES-BENZ trucks functions when the vehicle is stationary as well as in motion. A motor-dependent auxiliary drive must in any case be available.
The gear pump in the basic version delivers 20 l/min. at the nominal speed of the motor.
The one-circuit hydraulic system is sufficient, for instance, to operate a snow plough or reflector post washer reliably with all their functions.
NB: when ordering the vehicle, the basic MERCEDES-BENZ model must be equipped with the corresponding accessories code for the auxiliary drive for the motor.

Apple has asked a U.S. court to award it monetary damages for continuing infringement of three of its patents by Samsung Electronics, following the court's refusal to ban sales of the infringing products.
Last week Apple saw its request for an injunction on U.S. sales of infringing Samsung products, including the Galaxy S III smartphone, denied by Judge Lucy Koh in the San Jose division of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
[ Simon Phipps tells it like it is: Why software patents are evil. | Read Bill Snyder's Tech's Bottom Line blog for what the key business trends mean to you. | Cut to the key news for technology development and IT management with the InfoWorld Daily newsletter, our summary of the top tech happenings. ]
The company failed to convince the court that people were buying Samsung products because of the infringing features, she said.
Apple has already said it will appeal that ruling, and late Wednesday it filed the request for monetary compensation for ongoing infringement of the three patents.
In May a jury awarded Apple $119.6 million in damages for Samsung's pre-trial infringement of the patents, much less than the $2 billion Apple had asked for.
The three patents cover the "slide to unlock," "auto correct" and "quick links" features. The last one detects if typed text is an email address or a date, for example, and can add it to the address book or calendar.
Apple said in Wednesday's motion it will continue to be irreparably harmed by Samsung's infringement. While the harm cannot be fully compensated with money damages, it said, "Nonetheless, Apple is entitled to receive at least an ongoing royalty to partially compensate for Samsung's ongoing infringement of Apple's patents through sales of the infringing products and products that are not more than colorably different from the infringing products."
For infringing the three patents, Apple demanded a total of at least $6.46 per infringing Samsung product. The amount is based on the implied per-product amounts awarded by the jury for Samsung's past infringement of these patents, Apple said.
After the May ruling, Apple and Samsung agreed to settle their legal disputes outside of the U.S., ending lawsuits in nine countries, leaving the U.S. as their only remaining patent battle ground.
This is the second major patent victory for Apple over Samsung in California. In the first, Apple was awarded $1.05 billion in damages for Samsung's violation of its patents, although that was reduced to about $930 million in a retrial.
