In July 1901 during the height of the guerrilla war in the Magaliesberg Mountains, a young Boer woman enrolled as a nurse at the British Army Field Hospital in the town of Rustenburg. Both British and Boer wounded were brought in from the field to the temporary hospital set up in the new Dutch Reformed Church and the Boer nurse, Aletta van der Merwe, nursed the wounded from both sides with equal care and compassion.
One day a dapper young officer serving in the Scottish Horse, Lieutenant Frank Irving, brought in an ambulance, and it was love at first sight between him and Aletta. As often as he could he visited Aletta on her farm Rietvlei, just east of Magatos Nek. Her mother was against their romance and reminded Aletta that her father and two brothers were fighting on Commando against the British. However, she protested that Frank was an upstanding and well brought up young man from a good Scottish family. "I am very much in love with him", she said, "and want to marry him". "I do not only nurse Boer wounded, but also wounded British. I give all my love, peace and nursing to friend as well as foe. I receive a reasonable salary, and this will help to keep our farm on the go. I have been assured by the British commanding officer that no British soldier will be allowed to damage our farmhouse and orchards".
Three months later, at first light on Monday 30th September 1901, the Boers attacked Colonel Kekewich's temporary campsite at Moedwil, 25 kilometres west of Rustenburg. Firing from the top of the steep western banks of the Selons River, the Boers fired relentlessly into the camp. Their targets were silhouetted by the rising sun and one of the bullets struck Frank in the chest. After the battle, he was rushed to the hospital in Rustenburg, together with many other wounded soldiers.
Aletta waited anxiously as he underwent an emergency operation to remove the .303 bullet from his chest. After the operation, Aletta pressed out some oranges and helped Frank to drink the juice. She nursed her lover throughout the night as he was suffering from severe blood loss and dehydration. Early the next day he tried to whisper a few last words to her, but he was too weak and died in her arms. He was buried the same day – 1st October 1901 – in the Rustenburg cemetery.
Aletta planted twelve orange pips near his grave and every day for a few weeks she placed fresh flowers on his grave and watered the orange pips with her tears. When the plants came up, she selected the best and planted it next to his grave.
In the early 1970's Steve Vercuil saw Aletta's orange tree, which had somehow survived unattended for nearly 70 years, whilst helping the local MOTHS on a cemetery clean-up. Sadly, today all the cast iron grave markers of the second Anglo-Boer War British dead have been stolen and sold for scrap. The Genealogical Society of South Africa through their National Cemetery Recording Project recorded all the grave markers in the old Rustenburg cemetery and there is a photo of Lieut. F.J. Irving's cast iron cross taken by Penny Shaddock on 3rd April 2012. http://www.eggsa.org/library/main.php?g2_itemId=2078111
If you look carefully you will see the stem of an orange tree sapling behind the cross to the left. The original tree must have died and been removed, but someone replaced it. Sadly, the sapling was removed recently, but we will replace it with another sapling from an original surviving orange tree on President Kruger's old farm Boekenhoutfontein – now Kedar Heritage Lodge.

Ann Edith Florence Tyler one of our older local residents reached 100 years of age on July 21st.
Ann & Len on their Wedding Day
My abiding memory of the house in Markhams Chase was the back garden. My uncle Len planted a weeping willow tree at the end of the back garden when they first moved in. Over the years it grew into a fine specimen and stood proud until they changed the road layout when houses were built in Ballards Walk. The gardens of the council houses were foreshortened at this time leaving the willow stranded in grassland around the new properties. After complaints some years later by the 'New' neighbours it was felled by the council. The family were distraught as it was their tree, it was missed by many locals who had known it for so many years.
My father, mother, Ann and her husband Len all used to go out together which kept their close family bond. After Len and my mother died the two of them together with other family members still used to go out for drives all around Essex to visit family and to keep in touch with our large number of relatives.
Living locally I have visited her on a regular basis over the years and we nearly always land up talking family and local history and having a great laugh even when life has taken us on difficult and sad parallel journeys. Until very recently her memory was extremely good and would recount her life over the years and help me with filling in the gaps in our family tree. She was well known in Laindon and loved to walk to the shops in the High Road and chatting to the locals and often met my mother to catch up on family news. She was furious when 'Our little Village' as she always referred to Laindon was demolished and swore that was when the community spirit was lost.
The family congregated at Ghyllgrove to celebrated her landmark birthday where we had a great time all together, she proudly showed us her Telegram from the Palace congratulating her on reaching her Hundredth Birthday.

Ann Edith Florence Lidstone was born on 21st July 1912. Ann who we affectionately know as Annie or Nan was often left in the care of her grandmother whilst her mother worked for the RAC in London. When aged 14 years Nanna left school and obtained a position as Dressmaker Apprentice to Liberty's located in London. She often took a short cut through Horse Guards Parade on her way to and from work.
On 6th June 1931 Nanna married Leonard James Tyler (born 16th September 1906) at Little Burstead Church. He was the sixth child of Jane & Herbert Tyler. Len worked as a market gardener for the gentry in Billericay, cycling to and from work in all weathers. They lived in a small bungalow called "Rostrevor" in Salisbury Avenue on the south side of the Railway.
Nanna had two children Eileen in 1932 and Raymond in 1942. Leonard being a market gardener was an avid grower of fresh fruit and vegetables which the family found very beneficial during the dark war years of 1939 to 45. This production was particularly useful when making exchanges of goods to make life run a little smoother and to supplement the meagre rations in those austerity years.
The family moved to No 9 Markham's Chase soon after they were built and they lived there very happily for many years.Their lifelong friends Mr & Mrs Hymas of No 8 supported their application for the their tenancy. Mr Hymas was a taxi driver and consequently owned the only telephone in the street. Nan in later years helped Mrs Hymas with her requirement for daily injections for the treatment of diabetes. In fact this action of Nan was typical of her selfless attitude towards helping others throughout her life, putting others first.
During the war years Nan had lots of close shaves with the Luftwaffe and RAF fighter planes, being on the receiving end of shrapnel as she braved the run home from school, across the fields, with Eileen. They witnessed dog fights between Messerschmitt 109s and British Spitfires, with Doodlebugs and V2s dropping from the sky. On one particular occasion a Doodlebug came down in Pound Lane nearby to the family home and was close enough to blow the front door off, and rock the cot that baby Raymond was sleeping in. The families in the road would share their individual air shelters with other residents in the road and this attitude was part of the general camaraderie within the community. Grandad worked hard gardening by day in Billericay and came home and did it all over again the garden at home to provide fresh food for his family!
Nan enjoys reading books especially on history and is a Royalist and very much a supporter of all things Royal. She is an expert on plant identification especially knowing all the names of wild flowers. She enjoys nothing more than listening to the birds in the garden and knows the song of each one. She fed them with her own bird food recipe right up to leaving her house to live here at this rest home.
Nanna and Grandad loved cats, but after losing one too many they turned to Budgies. Their first was a big boy called Joey, when on 17th November 1954 Nanna found him flying about in the back garden, obviously lost. Grandad made a box for him and soon he was tame enough to come into the house. They would often have Joey out of his cage and subsequent budgies talked and were hand fed. There is a photograph of Grandad in his Home Guard uniform, the wooden frame of which has been pecked by various budgies.
Five Generations of Ann's Family
She has always been a wonderful knitter and crochet worker producing intricate designs for the dressing table. A small number are here which members of the family have brought with them. As children our dolls were provided with the top most fashion items and she would assist Eileen in turning out cardigans and jumpers for her grandchildren for school or best. Nanna enjoyed baking. I remember visiting her as a graduate living in Barking. We would go to the pub for lunch and when it was time to go home Nanna would always have a tin of fairy cakes or biscuits for me, my flat mates eagerly awaiting my return. She has a marvellous sense of humour which combined with her other human attributes has proved why she is so popular and loved by so many.

Dear Jean, Thank you for your comments. My Aunt & Uncle Annie & Leonard Tyler were married in 1931 & rented a room in "Rostrevor" then moved to Markhams Chase into one of the council houses when they were newly built in the early 1930' s. My own parents Frederick & Mary Tyler were married in June 1937 & they also rented a room in "Rostrevor" for about a year of their new life together. They then moved into a small bungalow "Toby" in Northumberland Avenue that ran parallel with Salisbury Ave. but on the north side of the Railway.
I was born in "Toby" in 1945 so I expect our paths may have crossed when we were growing up in Laindon. The name of Colbear is known to me, it took me back to my childhood. I remember some of your relatives were friends with our family but don't know which generation of yours that would be. It seemed every body knew each other in that locality. Also living in Northumberland Avenue were my Grandparents Herbert & Jane Tyler together with my fathers sister & husband Jack & Florence Rose.
Another bit of information for you, my Aunt Nan died Dec. last year aged 101. Hope this information helps you to clarify your own history. If you happen have any pictures of " Rostrevor" I would be grateful if you would share them with me, it would fill a gap in my album of my family. Kind regards Patsy.
Hello Patsy - I was reading the accounts above and was interested to read the section in Jane's account "On 6th June 1931 Nanna married Leonard James Tyler (born 16th September 1906) at Little Burstead Church. He was the sixth child of Jane & Herbert Tyler. Len worked as a market gardener for the gentry in Billericay, cycling to and from work in all weathers. They lived in a small bungalow called "Rostrevor" in Salisbury Avenue on the south side of the Railway."
I was born in 1948 and bought home from Orsett hospital and grew up in 'Rostrevor' as a child, with my father Thomas Colbear Jr. and my grandparents, Thomas Snr. and Nellie Colbear. I have always believed that they had lived there since way before I was born, but maybe that was not the case. Do you have any idea when Annie left there and moved to Markham's Chase? Thanks
Really enjoyed this story Patsy and wasn't she the most beautiful bride! See where you get your talents from! Congratulations to a lovely 100 year old lady.

What strikes me about this passage is the last part of the verse, "…perhaps the Lord will work for us, for the Lord is not restrained to save by many or by few." In this statement Jonathan places himself in sharp contrast with his father, Saul.
Jonathan was willing to risk his life and the life of his armor bearer on his faith in the Lord's ability to act. Saul did not think this way. Later in the chapter, 1 Samuel 16:37, Saul inquires of the Lord, but the Lord does not answer him. Already, the relationship between Saul and the Lord is blocked.
Jonathan's action is based on his belief in the omnipotence of God. There is no force that the Lord cannot defeat. Numbers are not the issue. The issue in whom Jonathan trusts.
I wonder what application, if any, that has for our missions.
On the surface Jonathan's action may seem presumptuous, reckless. But his action is evidence of one who has placed himself completely in the Lord's hands and is sold out to doing whatever the Lord wants.
If I had to choose I would follow Jonathan's example rather than Saul's.

[Plugin: TinyMCE Advanced] Multiple Editor Versions
A possible added functionality for TinyMCE advanced would be the ability to create multiple editor versions.
For example, an admin could use one editor arrangement (and name it Admin Editor), and a simplified version could be used by a client when they're logged in (and call it Client Editor).
Also, depending on the section of the website, one editor arrangement would better fit the type of content required. This would work great with custom fields.
Still a great plugin!

Nephropathic cystinosis (NC) is a rare autosomal recessive storage disease characterized by the lysosomal accumulation of cystine crystals throughout the body, particularly in blood cells, the cornea, skin, kidneys, the central nervous system, and the muscles. The skin and the cornea are the most accessible sites to explore, and in vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (IVCM) helps identify crystals in both but does not provide any information to help define their composition. Raman spectroscopy (RS) allows cystine to be easily recognized thanks to its characteristic signature with a band at 499 cm -1. Two dermatology confocal microscopes were used to visualize crystals in both the skin and the ocular surface of a cystinosis patient, and an ex vivo Raman examination of a skin biopsy and of the cornea was performed and removed during a corneal graft to confirm the cystine composition of the crystals. Recently, RS has been performed in vivo and coupled with IVCM. In the future, it is suggested that crystals in NC and other deposits in storage diseases could be identified with this noninvasive in vivo technique that combines IVCM to recognize the deposits and RS to confirm their chemical nature. © 2013 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers.

Purpose: Multimodal imaging of processionary caterpillar hair-induced keratitis with anterior segment optical coherence tomography and in vivo confocal microscopy. Methods: Case report. Results: A 25-year-old woman presented with acute keratitis induced by multiple tiny processionary caterpillar hairs. She initially experienced severe pain and moderate vision loss, which gradually improved within a few weeks. Diagnosis was confirmed by in vivo confocal microscopy showing a pathognomonic image strictly comparable with ex vivo microscopy photography. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of corneal in vivo confocal imaging of a caterpillar hair with confirmation by ex vivo microscopy.

Daniel & Nicole! Talk about a connection! The laughing, kissing, playing, talking…that was all them! As much as I want to take full credit for these romantic photos, I can't! These two just love each other soooo much. Every last pose came completely natural! We had such a blast shooting all over the place. Is that the lake or the ocean? You'll never know! We might have caught a jet to the coast! Ending this session, by toasting marshmallows over a campfire, made for a dreamy evening that these two will remember for years. Precious people, precious couple, precious photos, happy me! Now for their wedding! Just 8 months away! I can't wait! So fun making friends. Funny how that works in this industry!

Jack Twyman's tale deserves to be told once more
Jack Twyman died Wednesday at age 78.
Unless you're a hard-core basketball fan, you probably never have heard of Twyman, who graduated from Cincinnati in 1955 as the school's leading career scorer (1,598 points) and rebounder (1,242). He now is ninth in points and second in rebounds.
Twyman averaged 24.6 points and 16.5 rebounds as a senior, when he was named an All-American. Twyman played 11 seasons in the NBA with the Royals' franchise, first in Rochester, N.Y., then in Cincinnati. Twyman was a six-time All-Star and retired in 1966 with career averages of 19.2 points and 6.6 rebounds. He worked as an ABC broadcaster in the 1970s and was inducted into the basketball Hall of Fame in 1983.
But Twyman's true lasting legacy is the incredible compassion he showed for NBA teammate Maurice Stokes.
Stokes played just three seasons in the NBA, but they were glorious. He was a first-round pick, No. 2 overall, out of little St. Francis (Pa.) in 1955, and he was an All-Star in each of his three seasons with the Royals.
Stokes was incredibly strong yet also athletic, and he was a rebounding machine. He averaged 16.7 rebounds per game over his three-year career, to go along with 15.8 points and 5.1 assists.
"Maurice Stokes was Magic Johnson before there was a Magic Johnson," Boston Celtics legend Red Auerbach once said. And former Celtics guard Bob Cousy once told reporters that Stokes was "the first great, athletic power forward. He was Karl Malone with more finesse."
Stokes' career was cut short because of a freak accident during a 1958 regular-season game. Three days after he hit his head on the floor and suffered a concussion, Stokes, then 24, collapsed and was left bedridden with a brain injury. Twyman became Stokes' legal guardian – after Stokes was injured, his contract eventually was voided and he had no insurance – and helped care for Stokes until he died in 1970.
Twyman lobbied heavily for Stokes' induction into the Hall of Fame, and his efforts paid off in 2004. Twyman accepted the honor on Stokes' behalf, saying, "Whatever I've done for Maurice, I've gained tenfold."
Hoop talk
• So we now know Anthony Davis will be playing his pro ball in New Orleans. He is going to be the second Kentucky player taken first overall in the NBA draft in the past three years; John Wall went No. 1 in 2010. Sort of surprising: No other UK player ever has gone No. 1 overall.
• We missed this, unfortunately, when it first came out. The soon-to-be Brooklyn Nets and Houston Rockets teamed up in mid-May to hold a group workout with 44 prospects. The idea was to invite players who could go late in the first round or in the second round. Stanford F Josh Owens, who is 6-feet-8 and averaged 11.8 points for the NIT champion-Cardinal this past season, led the way with a 41-inch vertical leap, incredible for a guy his height. From the "Gee, who woulda thunk it?" department: The heaviest player was Mississippi State F Renardo Sidney, who tipped the scales at 304 pounds and couldn't finish his workout.
• Former Virginia Tech F J.T. Thompson, who has missed each of the past two seasons with torn ACLs, will finish up his college career at Charlotte. Thompson missed the 2010-11 season with an injured left knee, then missed the 2011-12 season with an injured right knee. He has one season of eligibility remaining. Truthfully, Thompson is nothing more than a role player, but you have to give the guy credit for his perseverance.
• OK, which school is the outlier in this group: Baylor, Maryland, Kentucky, Villanova and SMU. SMU? Those five schools, as well as many others, are in the running for 2013 recruits Aaron and Andrew Harrison, twins from Fort Bend, Texas, near Houston. Both are considered top-five recruits nationally in the 2013 class, and while they're unlikely to choose SMU, their consideration of the Mustangs is because of new coach Larry Brown.
• One top-50 player in the 2013 class made his decision Wednesday, with PG Nigel Williams-Goss of powerhouse Henderson (Nev.) Findlay Prep choosing Washington. One of the other finalists was Harvard, which has signed a national top-150 player in each of the past two recruiting cycles. In addition, F Zena Edosomwan, who is transferring from North Hollywood (Calif.) Harvard-Westlake to Northfield (Mass.) Mount Hermon for a post-grad season, already is a 2013 commitment. He was a top-150 player in the class of 2012 before reclassifying to 2013.
• Illinois is looking for a new assistant after Isaac Chew left after less than two months on the job to take a similar position at Marquette. One of the names that has cropped up as a potential replacement for Chew: Deon Thomas, the coach at Lewis and Clark College (Ill.) who reportedly met with new coach John Groce earlier this spring. Hmmm – Bruce Pearl is without a job, so maybe there's room for him and Thomas on the Illini staff. Chew, by the way, is on his fourth job in a little more than a year. He was an assistant at Murray State until he was hired by new Mizzou coach Frank Haith last spring. He spent last season with the Tigers, moved to Illinois when Groce was hired and now is at Marquette.

I recently read an informative and endearing blog post by Jacqueline Van Dyk about early childhood reading initiatives. Her post, although all about reading works very well to make my points about connected learning. Like early childhood and the experiences that seed the reading child, powerful appropriate integration of technology to assist all learning demands engagement and connection- choice and content – that builds meaning. It's not about the skills or devices initially. It's about the stories and the person. We edtech specialist teachers need to always stay on point- meaning and engagement for the student is central not the technology.
"…And that, after all, is the point, right? To draw the child into reading. To engage and support the child in the learning. To help them be successful in learning to read. And ultimately, to foster a joy of reading that will last a lifetime.
And that's what got me thinking about Harry the dog and his trip to the seaside. I don't recall what attracted me to the book, but I know the experience made a lasting impression. Simply selecting that first book gave me the desire and confidence to begin to learn to read, and a degree of comfort around books and libraries.
As Faye says, pushing the skills before the learning does not create engaged readers! The skills are not more important than understanding the content. Connection and engagement trump readability levels and skill acquisition. So it doesn't really matter whether the child selects an appropriate book every time at the library; what matters is that the choice is up to them. And the librarian supports that choice with a view to opening doors to the world for the child. Engagement leads to learning…"(Open Book, Van Dyk, 01-21-13)
Jacqueline's own childhood memories of borrowing a book and recalling its impact proves clearly that making connections and providing engagement is the key to learning (and reading) not just pure skills and the testing of them. That's just business school theory manifesting itself in the wrong discipline. Education should be about personalized learning and that starts with the realization that we are connected. The bond starts with engagement and validation. Too many kids fail at skills, understand their weakness and then equate that poor reading or numeracy to personal flaws of birthright. "I suck at reading" or "I can't do math" are blunt instruments against self-worth perpetrated by bad strategy. Like Jacqueline eloquently narrates, it about opening doors early on. I think finding meaning in the world through connecting words and pictures -from stories- is the key to the doors. What kid doesn't love to hear stories or look at picture books. They get engaged with stories – connected – long before the skills. Librarians understand this truth so deeply many dedicate a career toward it. Ms. Van Dyk was one.

I've finally taken that first running step!
Well I finally did my first ever couch to 5k session. I've made every excuse in the book up until now, but mainly used "I hate running!" as a reason not to do it. I thought I'd never do the 8 runs (I ran only for 30 seconds on two of them), however I surprised myself. It was not a breeze, it was hard going. However, I am carrying at least 20lbs more than I'd like, so it was never going to be easy...
One thing to note for my next run - make up a decent playlist!
I WILL DO THIS (though got to sort out the overeating issue now!)

Younger Women Seeking Older Men: What More to Know?
Dates seem to be going along just great. Hopes are high about what the future might hold. However, there is still much more to learn about these younger women who seek older acquaintances especially if one hopes to land a partner one day. Therefore, what more should a mature gentleman find out about his younger companion?
1. What brings her back to the dating scene?
Assuming that she has left for a time, why? Is it because she plans to catch a man and keep him, was she lonely or depressed? Whatever her reason you can infer from it that she might expect to have a relationship one day.
2. What does she find attractive about dating older?
Is it the maturity, financial security, the way you look, where you live, or the power behind your name? By asking her this question in a general way, you will find out some information as to why she is dating you.
3. Why is she not dating men her own age or younger?
Is there something about the young woman that even young men stay far away from. Notice her mannerisms, how she expresses herself, and other things about her behavior and her explanation. You will learn a lot about whether this woman might one day be a potential headache. Follow up with questions about her experiences dating men her own age and what she liked and didn't like about them and probe about any disputes she may have had with them. What did one of her dates say he didn't like about her? This will help you determine what things might be like in the future if you should continue to date her especially if she still has feelings for an ex-boyfriend.
4. How does she like her dating experience so far with you?
Does she appear bored, disinterested, or unhappy when you ask this question? If so, cut your losses early.
5. How are things coming along at work?
By asking this question, you get a glimpse of how she relates to co-workers, what she likes or doesn't like about working, and whether or not she expects to quit her job one day in the hopes that you will take care of her.
6. What is her relationship like with parents and siblings?
If she has an active relationship with relatives, then she may be easy to get along with and a blessing to her family. However, if she talks about how they don't get along, distant, and she resents them, she may or may not be to blame for the lack of relationship, but be cautious. This information will help you see where you may or may not fit in her life and what might a personal relationship with her might look like in the future. Family relations are powerful, they can make or break a friendship depending on how close one is or isn't to his or her family.
7. Does she hope to one day marry, have children, relocate, etc.
Know that a woman who envisions a future with a husband and children isn't going to quit dreaming, no matter how much her partner says, "I don't know if I'm ready for this " If the idea of being a husband or father is a sure turn-off for you then don't waste the young woman's time, move on.
Keep in mind, when you think about in-depth questions to ask the young
woman, you get a good idea where you stand in the relationship and you
can almost forecast what the future might look like being with her. Best

We report the development of a codominant sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker linked to bacterial wilt resistance in tomato line Hawaii 7996. Bulked segregant analysis was employed for rapid identification of RAPD markers linked to resistance genes. Genomic DNA from six resistant F9 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) and six susceptible F9 RILs, which derived from a cross between S. lycopersicum Hawaii 7996 (resistant parent) and S. pimpinellifolium WVa 700 (susceptible parent) were pooled in to an R-pool and an S-pool, respectively. A total of 800 RAPD primers were screened and only six primers (UBC#176, 205, 287, 317, 350, and 676) showed polymorphism between R- and S- pools. Of these, only two markers UBC#176 and 317 revealed a 100% linkage in the individual plants comprising the contrasting bulks. Of these, the marker UBC#176 was converted into a codominant SCAR marker and designated as SCU176-534. The marker SCU176-534 was confirmed by genotyping the individual of the R- and S- pools and gave the same result as UBC#176. When the marker SCU176-534 was further validated for association with resistance and its potential for maker-assisted selection (MAS) in 92 tomato lines and cultivars, the results showed that none of these carries the resistance gene. Thus, SCAR marker SCU176-534 can be used in early selection of resistant lines when Hawaii 7996 is used as a parent in a breeding program. © 2015, Korean Society for Horticultural Science and Springer-Verlag GmbH.

When they announce discovery of a new breed of bird or fish or whatever, are they always meaning "Never before discovered" or does it sometimes mean a new crossbread from previous breeds/types?

It depends on the type of animal (wild v. domestic) but the majority of the time they mean never before discovered. But discovered can mean different things, maybe it a species that we've never seen before or maybe it's an animal that we misclassified. An example of this is the platypus, after genetic testing it is though that there are two subspecies not one species as originally thought.
With the way you phrased your question, the answer is; yes.
Often when talking about newly discovered species it's either a newly discovered specimen classified as it's own species or a known one that turns out to have been falsely counted towards one species but it actually a new (or sometimes a known) different species.
A new 'breed' of domesticated animal is often the result of selective breeding or cross breeding.
Edit: what /u/Science_is_punny said (I wonder why it said 0 comments.. That comment is 4 hours old)
Edit 2: /u/exotics and /u/FancyScientist made excellent points; breeds and species are used in different contexts.
The meta to this is that our definition of "species" is outdated and predates modern genetics. Your question has a messy answer because the system itself is messy. At some point it needs to be updated based on genetic similarities, not external cues like morphology (shape).
Speciation is a process, a slow divergence from an arbitrary set of ancestors. In that sense, everything is a bunch of crossbreeds. We'll never be able to describe all life because life keeps evolving faster than we can keep up with. It's just an arbitrary definition of when an individual has mutated enough to become a new species.
There are like 30-something officially proposed species definitions, ranging from ones based on the ability of organisms to reproduce to ones based solely on genetic variation. In modern times, often when a new species is discovered it is a 'cryptic' species. Cryptic species are groups of animals that are morphologically and ecologically similar, differing mainly in behavior. When the behavioral barriers to gene flow are strong enough, it can cause the genomes of two populations to diverge enough so that despite looking the same and having the same environment and even having the ability to produce totally fertile and healthy offspring, they don't because of the behavioral differences. These cryptic species are usually only revealed after sampling individuals from the wild and comparing genomic variation. Edit: grammar
I've heard conflicting opinions about what the word *species* actually means. My current understanding is something like "A group of animals that cannot have fertile offspring with members of other groups". I still find it kind of arbitrary, because one species branching into two doesn't happen overnight. So there must be a grey zone where some individuals are able to interbreed, while others can't. Or am I misunderstanding the term completely?
It's a big planet with lots of stuff in it. We have yet to catalog it all. Even if someone has been living next door to a common local bug/fish/bird/mammal that does not mean that it has been identified and cataloged by taxonomists. So, if a biologist trips over something new in their neighbors backyard, it does not necessarily mean it is new and undiscovered but instead it may mean that it just has not been categorized all official like.
As a rule of thumb, a "new breed" is a new species. A species is a taxonomic "unit" for an organism indicating it is unique in genetics, distribution, behaviour, or other characteristics that make it mostly incompatible with other "species" (exceptions occur, and the real grounds for deciding whether two organisms are separate species or not is debated at times).
So a new breed is a completely new organism. For instance, we have tigers, cheetahs, and leopards, and we've just discovered something that is pink, with yellow stripes and spots, which is completely unlike anything ever seen. Or it can be a new insect or plant, where the differences between the new species and one we know could be minute (several beetle families contain 1000s of identical brown species, distinguished only by genetics and genitalia).
Sometimes though the clickbait news sources call a "new discovery" for species that have been reclassified. For instance, a bird may be determined to represent two or more additional species, that we thought were the same. Those additional bird species are then given a separate name. This is hardly a new discovery because often we always knew they were around, albeit just considered them under an old "umbrella" species name.
So now on to your topic of crossbreeds. Many species in history are thought to result from the pairing of two different species, for instance the clymene dolphin. That hybrid is fertile and then continues to become isolated and eventually, over thousands and thousands of years, become so isolated in genetic and behaviour traits that it is recognizable as its own species. This takes many, many thousands of years though. If two species hybridized in the modern day and the hybrid offspring were produced, that itself is not grounds for a new species. Often hybrids are temporary, don't live to continue progeny, or are sterile and can't produce offspring. Permanent hybrid populations, which are consistent enough to eventually (beyond our lifetime) create new species, are uncommon.
**TL;DR**, a new breed either means a new species entirely, or a reclassification of an old species into separate names (which may or may not be discovered already).
Crossbreeding (hybridization) is not grounds for a new breed, unless that new breed has consistently formed over thousands of years and shows traits of being its own species.
New species being discovered are not crossbreeds or hybrids. A species is [defined by its ability to bear fertile offspring](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species). If two animals can have fertile offspring together than they are the same species.
[Hybrids](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_(biology)) are mostly sterile. e.g. zonkeys or ligers. Wolves and dogs are the same species [Canis Lupis](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_wolf)

College coaches are more interested in players who already know about their team and college, so do your research before visiting a college campus in person. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Missouri State University Baseball information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Missouri State University.
As a student athlete, you can play college sports competitively at an intercollegiate level, or just for fun via intramurals. Please keep in mind that few students will qualify for athletic scholarships, and that college coaches sward available sports scholarship money judiciously.
Approximately 126,000 student athletes go to college on either a partial or full athletic scholarship, but the vast majority of college athletic teams have open tryouts, and walk-ons may land a position on the team if they are talented enough. If you've been recruited or made it past a walk-on tryout, that's when the real challenge starts. You still have to make it through daily practices, and several rounds of cuts in order to make the team. Mott Community College athletic dept may encourage student-athletes to apply via early decision. Students who are considering applying via early decision should be aware of the rules and obligations that this commitment entails.

Gary was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia almost a year ago. ALL occurs when cancer cells accumulate in the bone marrow and spread to other organs including the liver, spleen, lymph nodes, central nervous system, and kidneys. Since his diagnosis, Gary has undergone rigorous chemotherapy treatments, which have seriously impaired his immune system and left him feeling frequently weak and nauseous. At this time, he is enduring chemotherapy treatments every week and will continue them until May 2008.

Manchester United reportedly remain hopeful of luring Paris Saint-Germain star Marquinhos to the club this summer, with manager Jose Mourinho said to be keen to strengthen his defensive options.
According to Samuel Luckhurst of the Manchester Evening News, the Red Devils "have touched base to gauge how interested he would be in a Premier League transfer," with PSG said to be looking at extending his current contract, which expires in the summer of 2019.
"At this juncture, United's interest is tentative, and they are insistent Marquinhos will have to put pressure on PSG to let him leave," continued Luckhurst. "The indication is United will not bend over backwards like they did with Paul Pogba last summer, waiting like a lovestruck date for the pampered prom queen, and have set a price on Marquinhos' possible fee and wages."
Another central defender is set to be on Mourinho's summer shopping list, with the United boss struggling to find a regular partner for Eric Bailly. Here is what Marquinhos would potentially add:
As noted in the report, Barcelona have been linked with a move for the €42.2m-rated Brazil international in the past, although the sale of David Luiz ahead of the current campaign has seen Marquinhos promoted to a more regular first-team role alongside compatriot Thiago Silva at the back.
In the main, the 22-year-old has impressed. He may not be the most physical defender, but he's intelligent and sharp. As a result, journalist Jonathan Johnson doesn't see PSG cashing in on him:
I think Marquinhos wants a new PSG contract. In any case, no, I do not think PSG will agree to sell him.
— Jonathan Johnson (@Jon_LeGossip) May 9, 2017
In theory at least, Marquinhos would be an ideal partner for a front-foot operator like Bailly and given the age of both, there'd be potential for a prosperous long-term linkup.
However, if United were going to snap up the centre-back, you sense they'd need to break the bank, something Luckhurst hinted they'd be unwilling to do. As aforementioned, Marquinhos has become a crucial component in the PSG XI and the French giants will not want to lose one of the most exciting young defenders in world football.
