Dark golden-hay in color, this white was fermented mostly in 900-gallon French oak foudres, with the remainder fermented in smaller French oak barrels. Nutty lime and gooseberry provide intrigue and saltiness against bright acidity, making for a complex and compelling impression on the palate.

Relying on naturally-occurring yeasts, we fermented 80% of the grapes in 900-gallon French oak casks, called foudres, with the remainder in previously used small French oak barrels. We then aged the wine six months on its lees (the spent yeast) in neutral barrels. The combination of the right clones and cool growing region produced juicy tropical fruit and lemongrass flavors with a touch of minerality at the end of a long finish that are perfect with a wide range of food, including grilled seafood, chicken, oysters, creamy pastas dishes and summer salads.

Japanese American National Museum to Celebrate 25th Anniversary
The Japanese American National Museum, the largest private nonprofit national institution dedicated to the preservation and sharing of the Japanese American experience, will mark the occasion of its 25th Anniversary since its incorporation with a year-long series of events highlighted by its 2010 Annual Gala Dinner, "25 Years & Beyond: Celebrating the Spirit of Our Community", set for the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel on Saturday, April 10, 2010.
The institution was actually born before its incorporation when two community groups merged their individual efforts to create a museum in the early 1980s. A World War II veterans' group led by Col. Young Oak Kim joined forces with several Little Tokyo businessmen led by Bruce Kaji to create an organization whose mission is to permanently preserve and share the story of Japanese Americans as an integral part of U.S. history. Incorporated in 1985, the National Museum began as an almost all-volunteer organization composed of 13 different committees and only one full-time staff member with no permanent site and no endowment.
From those humble beginnings, the National Museum was able to raise the funds to renovate a former Buddhist temple building in Little Tokyo and open it to the public in 1992. It staged a successful Phase II campaign that resulted in the construction of its modern 85,000-square-foot Pavilion that opened in 1999 and then reconfigured its historic building to include its National Center for the Preservation of Democracy and expanded the space for its Tateuchi Democracy Forum.
All along the way, the National Museum reached out to diverse communities in Hawai`i, the West Coast, Colorado, Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, Chicago, Cleveland, and the East Coast. It developed landmark exhibitions and traveled shows to Hawai`i, Washington, D.C., New York City, Brazil, and Japan. The Museum organized several national conferences and one-of-a-kind special events while partnering with educators from around the country to develop local curriculum that included the Japanese American experience. Its Watase Media Arts Center created award-winning documentaries and its Hirasaki National Resource Center has aided thousands of students, families, and researchers in discovering more about Japanese American history.
"This is a gratifying story," observed Akemi Kikumura Yano, President and CEO of the National Museum. "Most of our Japanese American community organizations were formed in a similar manner to our Museum. Every church, every temple, every community center has begun with a group of people joining together to reach a lofty goal. No one person could do it alone, but by working together, what seems impossible is attainable.
"Twenty-five years ago, the Museum founders knew that the Japanese American story was not well known within our own community, let alone by other Americans," Kikumura Yano explained. "Today, thanks to the support of our members, donors, supporters and community partners from across the country, the National Museum has helped to make our story, especially the World War II experience, part of curricula in states like Arkansas, Colorado, Texas, Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico, as well as throughout the West Coast and Hawai`i.
"Documentary producer Ken Burns included our stories in his epic presentations by using material from the Museum's collections. Even prime time television shows like 'Cold Case' include the mass incarceration in their shows. What seemed impossible in 1985 is a reality today, but only because so many people believed in the National Museum and have continued to support it over the years."
The National Museum's annual gala dinners have become unique events since their inauguration in 1985. Among those recognized at the dinners have been U.S. Senator Daniel K. Inouye, former Governor George Ariyoshi, Sony Corp. co-founder Akio Morita, NBC's "Today" Show host Ann Curry, Medal of Honor recipient Hershey Miyamura, musician Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park and Giant Robot founder Eric Nakamura. The dinners spotlighted the strawberry and floriculture industries where Japanese Americans were key contributors. It organized the largest dinner ever for its "National Salute to Japanese American Veterans" and recognized a group of former teachers from the World War II concentration camps and dozens of Nikkei three-generation (or more) family businesses. It highlighted the contributions of those who made Japanese American redress possible with the passage of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988.
The 2010 Annual Gala Dinner, "25 Years & Beyond: Celebrating the Spirit of Our Community", will be organized as a broader tribute to the Japanese American community's willingness to work together, which enabled the formation of the National Museum. Founding President Bruce Kaji will be among those receiving special recognition. Senator Inouye and former Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta are the Honorary Dinner Co-Chairs. Dr. Paul I. and Hisako Terasaki are the Dinner's Signature Sponsors. The Dinner Committee Co-Chairs are Tracey Doi, Chief Financial Officer, Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., and George Tanaka, Senior Vice President, Union Bank.
"The occasion of the Japanese American National Museum's 25th anniversary is an appropriate time to look back at how a community's grassroots effort created what would become a national and international educational institution," observed Tracey Doi. "But, it is also the correct moment to look forward and envision how the National Museum can continue to connect to each new generation while fulfilling its mission over the next 25 years."
Sponsorships for the 2010 Annual Gala Dinner are available at these levels: Signature ($100,000), Presenting ($50,000), Diamond ($25,000), Platinum ($10,000), Gold ($5,000), Silver ($3,500), Bronze ($2,500) and Community ($1,750, for non-profit organizations and must be for full table). There are also Sponsorships available for the VIP Reception set for Friday, April 9, at the National Museum, at the Host ($15,000) and Sponsor ($5,000) level; and Gala Dinner Reception Host ($15,000) and Gala Dinner Reception Sponsor ($5,000).
The Japanese American National Museum will kick-off its 25th Anniversary year with its annual Oshogatsu Family Festival set for Sunday, January 3, 2010, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.

A barnacle on the dinghy of life
Commission a games design studio called Bizarre Developments to cobble together a licensed cartoon character tie-in title and it should surprise no-one when they devise something less than orthodox.
Popeye 3: WrestleCrazy is just one pertinent example in the Sheffield developer's quirky portfolio. One that includes a digitised interpretation of the mechanical funfair favourite, Kentucky Racing, Double Dare; a trivia game that attempts to recreate the TV quiz show hosted by Marc Summers, Huxley Pig, Bangers & Mash and Fireman Sam, all based on the eponymous kid's animated TV shows.
Shockingly enough Popeye 3 is a sequel to Popeye 2. You know, what with it featuring an integer one digit higher than the prequel. I believe that's how that works. The subtitleless second game in the series is also part of Bizarre's line-up, albeit a totally unrelated one. It's a traditional platformer in which you're tasked with collecting hamburgers and rescuing your first, your last, your everything, Olive Oyl, whilst kicking into touch your everlasting arch-nemesis, Bluto, later known as Brutus for misguided licensing reasons.
What in turn this is a sequel to I suppose is debatable as seven earlier Popeye games preceded it, none of which publisher, Alternative Software, or Bizarre Developments were involved with. Complicating matters further there exists another Popeye 2 title also released in 1991 by Activision for the Game Boy. More than likely though, Alternative's Popeye 2 is a loose follow-up to Don Priestley's 1985 humongously-sprited, heart-collecting platformer simply entitled Popeye, published by DK'Tronics.
Adding weight to the theory, Alternative Software went on to publish it solely for the Spectrum as part of 'The Popeye Collection'; a trio of games modelled on cartoonist Elzie Crisler Segar's machismo-impelled character inaugurally featured in his comic book strip 'Thimble Theatre' in 1929, before being re-branded 'Popeye' to reflect the shift in focus to its most popular character.
Segar died just nine years later at the tender age of 43 due to liver disease (or leukaemia depending on who you believe). Nevertheless, the public's appetite for his artistic offspring continued to gain momentum and Popeye remains a family favourite to this day. Every year after labour day his hometown, Chester, Illinois, plays host to 'The Popeye Picnic', a carnival and parade oriented towards celebrating the life and times of the notorious pre-superhero superhero.
Just the tip of the merchandising iceberg of course (lettuce joke pending), it should also be noted that you can still buy canned 'Allens Popeye Spinach' and bags of fresh 'Popeye Superfood Spinach', two sailor-approved sources of the vitamin A and C, iron and calcium-packed vegetable. So grateful is the spinach industry for Popeye's positive influence on the consumption of the nutrient-dense leafy green that four statues have been erected in his honour.
Popeye based video game spin-offs too have a longstanding history across all platforms and genres. Donkey Kong released on 9th July 1981 designed by Mario's daddy, Shigeru Miyamoto, was set to be the first, only his plans had to be scrapped when he was unable to negotiate a deal with the publisher, King Features Syndicate. A carpenter named Jump-Man (who went on to become Mario), a gorilla and damsel in distress, Pauline, were substituted for the Olive-Bluto-Popeye love triangle, and the scaffold-bounding platformer was a runaway success, earning Nintendo $280m by 1982, without the comic book license.
"In those days, Mr. Miyamoto's job was package design. I called him over one day and told him "Let's make a Popeye game for Game and Watch!", and so we began ironing out the concepts. But due to the aforementioned circumstances we instead decided to put it out on the remaining circuit boards as quickly as possible. Pretty early on we had decided that Popeye would go on the bottom of the screen and Bluto would be on the top, thus establishing the framework for the game, but we would later discover that we wouldn't be able to get the rights to use the characters after all. With no other options, we decided to keep the content of the game as it was and just change the characters. And so it was that those characters became Mario, Donkey Kong, and Princess Peach.
There was an episode in the cartoon show for Popeye in which Olive was sleepwalking and wandered around a construction site. Whenever she was about to lose her footing, miraculously enough another platform would come out of nowhere and support her, and this left quite an impression on me. So we figured by using a construction site as the setting, there would be all kinds of things we could do, and thus chose that as the setting for our Popeye game."
"Once we had established that the game would be set at a construction site, Mr. Miyamoto suggested, "Let's make it a game where there are barrels falling from above, and the player has to dodge them." At that time, he had a simple gameplay idea which was that whenever a barrel fell the player could get on ladder and avoid it. Once the barrel had passed, the player would get off the ladder and then back on the platform to continue climbing.
But if we went with that idea it would obviously get frustrating after a while, and so I told him to make it so that the player could jump over the barrels when they rolled towards him. This led to the idea of creating a 'jump' button. At first we had doubts as to whether the idea of jumping over barrels using a button would really work, but once we actually tried it we discovered that it was pretty effective, and decided to implement it.
As for where the idea for barrels came from, Mr. Miyamoto had suggested, "if we need an object that rolls, how about barrels?" This led to the discussion of why on earth there would be barrels at a construction site, and so it was suggested that we use oil drums instead. But we went with barrels anyways, I guess the reason probably being that their "rolling" animation was easier to draw.
Thinking about it now though, it seems that the imagery of the barrels we had used for the game left a strong impression. In the recently released "Donkey Kong Country", for example, the barrel itself is actually kind of a motif, and spawned the appearance of pirate ships and other such things in the game."
Virtual Boy, Game & Watch and original Game Boy creator, the untimely late Gunpei Yokoi ('I Am Error' by Nathan Alice).
"Even after the Popeye license fell through, I was still thinking about the relationship between Popeye, Bluto, and Olive Oyl. Their relationship is somewhat friendly. They're not enemies, they're friendly rivals. Donkey Kong was the first game project in which the design process began with a story. But I needed different characters. The main character, the big, strong guy, and the beautiful woman well, uh, Olive really isn't a beautiful woman. I figured I'd make mine beautiful instead (laughs). What's kind of a mystery is, why did I title the game Donkey Kong? The main character, the player, was Mario. That much was decided. But Donkey Kong, his personality was the most fleshed-out of all of them. I think it's best to name the game after the strongest character."
Shigeru Miyamoto ('Power-Up: How Japanese Video Games Gave the World an Extra Life' by Chris Kohler)
Ironically, in spite of their initial knock-back, Nintendo also developed the first official Popeye games, a Game and Watch handheld title released on 5th August 1981 and an arcade game in 1982, which was subsequently ported to all the popular home computer formats of the era. As the story goes, King Features were so impressed with the critical reception of Donkey Kong that they acquiesced, granting Nintendo the license after all. Less than a month later Nintendo's LCD toy was on the shelves. Something doesn't add up.
But we're not here to discuss Nintendo or Donkey Kong… despite all the Nintendo and Donkey Kong discussion.
Pointless number appendaging aside, WrestleCrazy is a fairly typical WWF style one or two-player brawler (even spoofing the font used for its emblem), except that you play the titular one-eyed, muscle-bound sailor who is implausibly pitted against a succession of freaky aliens. These vary between the different versions of the game – Spectrum, Amstrad, Commodore 64 and Amiga – though your reason for wanting to smush their misshapen noses into the canvas remains the same. In two-player mode the second player takes the role of your first opponent, Torquos, and is unable to mirror your special moves. It's game over as soon as one of the players accomplishes a three-second pin.
An alien race known as the 'Kraggs' are plotting to colonise the universe, seizing control of the weakest planets first. To establish which inhabitants will be a pushover they stage the Seventh Intergalactic Olympiad, a series of enslaved wrestling bouts set in outer space.
As earth's representative, Popeye must face a motley crew of extra-terrestrials and defeat them to save the world from invasion. Pin your opponent (using the fire button when they're on the canvas) for three seconds in four out of five of the skirmishes and the planet is safe, while you'll need to triumph in all five to bring peace to the entire universe. Logically your opponent's ability to wriggle free from a pin depends on their current energy level so it makes sense to tire them out before closing in for the cover.
Should you be pinned yourself for three seconds it's instantly game over. There are no second chances – as Celine Dion says, "this is getting seeeeerious". I don't think she was specifically referring to Popeye's WrestleCrazy, but the sentiment is the same. I must remember to ask her about that.
Primary attack manoeuvres available to you include a basic punch (in the Miggy version) or a kick (more of an ankle jerk really, and one that only applies in the 8-bit game), as well as a hoist-your-opponent-overhead-and-chuck-'em option. It's also possible to scale the corner post to stage a flying attack. Really though, success or failure is determined by your waggling prowess… as in all the best wrestling games. Hoho.
To attempt a grapple you must sidle up to your opponent and waggle furiously as if your life depended on it, appropriately. Once fixed in a hold more joystick abuse is required to fill your power metre – the first player to reach the top pulls off a vitality-draining headlock. Alternatively, you can unleash a brain-mashing pile-driver by hitting the fire button.
Munching on spinach and hamburgers tossed into the ring by Wimpey and your fickle girlfriend, Olive Oyl, will help you to build your strength faster, edging you closer to executing your killer signature move, though only if your opponents don't snag them first. Quite a novelty having to share your power-ups with the baddies, no?
Whenever you scoop up a can of spinach the momentous occasion is acknowledged by the appearance of an icon near your avatar. Consequently, your attacks temporarily become more powerful and the next time you win a grapple you'll automatically launch into turbo typhoon mode, which entails scrapping like cat and mouse in a dust cloud, thereby inflicting lots of bone-crunching pain in a short space of time. So I'm told by a now disabled three-eyed hob-goblin-y critter who asked to remain anonymous while the court case compo claim is still pending.
Embodying the pipe-tooting ironman we can assume "I'm strong to the finich 'cos I eats me spinach!" yet Popeye originally gained his superior muscle power by stroking the head of Bernice the Whiffle Hen. Don't look at me like that, it's true. Nonetheless, as that idea was dropped way back in 1932 sadly it won't help you here, even if there was one to be found fluttering about in the outer rim of the galaxy riding on an asteroid. Always going to be a long shot that one.
Not so conducive to your well-being is Popeye's pesky love rival villain, Bluto, who hurls cartoon style fuse-lit bombs into the ring. These sabotage your health as you'd expect, though can also be exploited for your benefit by manoeuvring assailants into their deadly path.
Popeye's theme tune is recreated faithfully in all the 8-bit versions, while the Amiga port takes the simple composition and jazzes it up inventively without losing the core recognisability or hum-alongable-ness. Which is a genuine Scrabble-conquering word on Planet Cobblers. I triple-checked with the High Council of Elder Statesdroids to ensure 100% correctitude.
All versions favour spartan in-game sound effects over music, title screens aside. These are passable on the less capable systems, yet pathetically feeble on the mighty Amiga.
Each bout – optionally played at normal or slow speed – takes place in a different location depending on the opponent faced, and that in turns determines the gravitational influence. This being a spectator sport a throng of onlookers harangue you with heckles, I imagine to distract you into losing to save their own slimy race from invasion and inevitable slavery.
In the Amiga version these comprise the aliens you tackle throughout the game as well as as an intergalactic zoo of novel ones. Impressively for the 8-bit incarnations, the audience are all convincingly animated in the facial expression department, outclassing their shoddy 16-bit counterpart in which the crowd barely twitch an eyelid. It would seem that they'd rather be painting their nails and watching them dry. Comically gracing us with its blobtastic presence in the Speccy version is a Jabba the Hutt lookalike who takes centre stage in the audience without being overly concerned with the action. No doubt he's preoccupied with dreaming about chomping down some tasty Klatooine paddy frogs, and has failed to notice that the apocalypse has landed on his doorstep.
Analogously C64 and Speccy gamers get to joust with Torqos, a Xenomorph clone from the Alien franchise (said to hail from the volcanic planet of Czykel in the Speccy edition and Trama in the C64 version), Robot B-9 as seen in the Lost in Space movie all the way from "a distant corner of the galaxy" and known as Andrek 5 in the Speccy version and just Andrek in the C64 game, and Flug Durch from the Zarkab Valley. The latter being a reference to a location found in the 8-bit game Trap by Alligata Software, a company Dave Palmer worked for before departing to set up Alternative Software with Roger Hulley in 1987. Richard Stevenson coded the Spectrum and Amstrad versions of Popeye 2 and 3 as well as the Spectrum version of Trap so he'd know all about the 'flight through' (or Flug Durch in German) Zarkab Valley.
Over on the Amiga the baddies are largely more generic, the highlights being Vantarg the dragon from the planet Syzygy, and the teleporting Plasmatic Shadow Man from Pirexiss, who would be invisible save for his contour-hugging outline. Both characters also make appearances in the Speccy and C64 versions I should add.
The remainder include…
Gungoid from the planet Slyme, and the Battering-ram-shaped Sprogo from Zapta
Human-hedgehog hybrid, Spike, from Sharpt
Short Circuit-esque, Tractoid, from Combyne
Serpent-like, Repti, from Bog
Weighing in at 158 pounds, the two-legged spinach machine from earth, the one and only, Popeye. Oh wait, that's us.
Crew-cut caveman, Sethin, from Wullpak (is that an Emmerdale joke?)
Cyborg, Plugg, from Electro9 (also a Street Sounds hip-hop album released in 1985)
Jet-propelled hover-bot, Foggit, from Intra, and finally, the stunted cyclops, Cyril, from Cyclo.
None of which makes an iota of difference to the way the different species fight because they're all fairly interchangeable, lacking any true nuance to their personality or style. As such Popeye needn't concern himself with wrapping his tongue around that funny 'strategy' word since adapting your approach to account for changes in the environment would be a pointless exercise in self-kidology to justify that whopping £3.99 investment.
If you can beat the entire roster of heels into submission without being pinned yourself you're rewarded with the text message, "Popeye has defeated all the aliens and saved the world", and a static finale screen, albeit a very nicely drawn one… in the C64 version anyway. King Features would have insisted on that – they're sticklers for only associating themselves with true representations of their intellectual property, as Don Priestley would confirm given the stipulations he was expected to adhere to.
Forgetting for a moment that the hideous – potentially fan-made – Amiga conversion exists, all things considered, Popeye 3 is a quirky, amusing diversion that delivers just enough content to warrant its bargain-basement price tag, especially for Popeye fans.
Several 8-bit critics reviewed WrestleCrazy at the time of release (late 1992), arriving at polar opposite final scores. Amiga reviews, however, are rarer than rocking dodos …with hen's teeth, suggesting that this unofficial entry in the series wasn't even on their PD radar.
"Popeye 3 is an out and out wrestling game and in a way the Popeye character is only coincidental to the main plot. However, the spinach flinging antics, some nasty aliens and an excellent Popeye sprite make Popeye 3 worth a look. It's not WWF but it was never intended to be."
"Popeye finally has a license that has had some thought put into it. Colourful, quick and with real cartoon-style graphics, the only problem is a horrendously long loading system."
"Super colourful cartoon graphics with an excellent license gives Popeye 3 a solid lead over its two predecessors. It's a pure wrestling game, and a difficult one at that. Remember as well, if you have the October issue of SU you should be able to load in an extra level with Big Al' on it. God help us!"
84% – Sinclair User (November 1992)
"Popeye isn't earth-shattering, but it's great fun and really gets you involved. You'll knacker your hands waggling for all you're worth. It's a lively, humorous game too. If you don't laugh at Popeye beating up Alien, you're too miserable. Lighten up."
74% – Commodore Format (November 1992)
"What a pity the programmers didn't eat their spinach. I'd rather be thrown overboard in the Arctic Ocean than play this game a moment longer. It's trying desperately to be the next WWF, and failing miserably. Popeye's kick is a waste of time, so the only thing left to do is get into a clinch and waggle the joystick like mad. Not only is this tiring on the arm (you end up with a bicep like an anvil), it's even more numbing for the brain. A good combat game requires at least some variety of moves to make it interesting. Lacking this essential ingredient, even Popeye 3's two-player mode can't provide any fun."
"With all the re-releases on the market at the moment, I rather hoped Alternative could come up with something more original. Sadly, Popeye 3 falls to the canvas in the first round."
24% – Commodore Force (January 1993)
Since the Popeye IP has already passed into the public domain everywhere in the world except America you'd expect post-2009 there to have been a raft of new Popeye games produced. Strangely not – the last entry in the franchise is Namco Hometek's side-scrolling race-platformer 'Popeye: Rush for Spinach' published in 2005 for the Game Boy Advance.
Maybe when the 1st of January 2025 rolls around and the US too are free to jump on the bandwagon someone will finally create a game that allows us to deploy Popeye's secret weapon to its full extent. I know I'll certainly be marking the date in my diary and powering up my Xbox 17 to scour the Chester, Illinois landscape for jet engine, blow torch, periscope and propeller pipe power-ups.

Mounds of Mystery
Where the Kings of Judah Were Lamented
At the beginning of the 20th century, when Jerusalem, still centered around its ancient core, was surrounded by agricultural land and orchards, 20 mysterious earth-and-stone mounds rose above the city's western horizon, clearly visible from afar. Today several of them have disappeared, flattened by excavation or by the development of new neighborhoods. But these enigmatic man-made mounds have mystified archaeologists since they were first noticed in the 1870s. Were they burial mounds with tombs inside? Were they places for some kind of cultic observances? Why were they clustered on one side of Jerusalem and nowhere else in the country?
The new interpretation offered here links Biblical texts and archaeological evidence. I propose a startling explanation: Each of these tumuli—artificial, truncated, cone-shaped mounds—marks the place where crowds of ancient Judahites gathered to commemorate the death of one of the kings of Judah in the tenth to seventh centuries B.C.E., and each of them served as a memorial mound.

Today OTSnews was invited under a Nevill Street business to see what is believed to be a bricks width away from discovering what Sefton Council never want us to see.

No entry to the underground Street of mystery under Southport Pier
Photo: No access under Southport Pier
Today OTSnews was invited under Southport Pier to silence the rumors of an entry point to an underground Street under existing Nevill street.
A Silcock leisure spokesperson said:
"Nevill Street was filled in when the subway shops were demolished in 1903".
However, A number of Nevill Street shop owner's we have spoken to this week know a someone who has 'apparently' been down and will assure us access in the near future.
To be continued….
Streets and mystery under Southport
Letter to the editor
Probably a lot of you already know about the street underneath Nevill Street. I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on it?
When was the Old Nevill Street built over?
Why exactly did they build over (heard it was something to do with the sea), Why do they not open it up as a tourist attraction (it must be safe down there because if it wasn't, then above Neville Street would be crumbling).
Also, Are there any other streets under Southport that are not as commonly known as Nevill Street and why are there no records of the rebuilding?
I'm just curious to how strange and bizarre Southport history has been and why would the council refuse an opportunity to add a very historical and worth while attraction to Southport by renovating and reopening the underground street(s)?
Thanks for reading!
Below are a few photographs that I have found.

Daily Mirror
Every Type of Athlete Training in Sportsman's Battalion.
The Sportsman's Battalion of the Royal Fusiliers is surely the most cosmopolitan regiment in the British Army. In its composition are many nationalities and all sorts and conditions of men, and all sportsmen.
The active side of sport is represented by expert cricketers, footballers, boxers, golfers, swimmers, tennis and lawn tennis players, and wrestlers, drawn from both the amateur and professional ranks. And, best of all perhaps, sport is represented in its ranks by the country gentleman.
As a camp, Grey Towers, the lovely old park and house at Hornchurch, where the sportsmen are training, is easily the best in England for any single battalion.
I was shown around, first of all, by the busiest man in the regiment, Lieutenant and Quartermaster H. Enderby.
"Grey Towers" is the officers' quarters, and the men are encamped in huts in the eighty acres of park. These huts are the latest thing in Army constructional work.
They are raised a foot to eighteen inches above the turf, lined with match-boarding, lighted with many windows, warmed by a big stove, and have boarded floors.
The beds are wooden boxes with stout canvas stretched across them, and each man has three blankets. As most of these dwellings are decorated with flowers and flags they present a gay appearance.
There is a big institute and reading room, a supper room, wet and dry canteens, a fully-equipped hospital, a rifle range, forty-eight bathrooms, and also kitchens and wash-houses.
Five meals a day are served, starting with coffee and biscuits at 6:30 a.m., and finishing with soup at 7:30 p.m.
Varied every day, breakfast dishes are porridge, bacon, corned beef, sausages, stewed mutton, chops, tomatoes, kippers, bread and butter, tea and coffee.
Dinner during a week is varied between roast and stewed mutton and beef, beef steak pie, Irish stew, hot pot, curried stew, tomato stew, potatoes, haricot beans, cabbage, suet roll and syrup, currant puddings, dumplings, and sultana pudding.

At the offices of John D. Halepaska, we're here to provide motorcycle accident injury attorney services for those who have been injured while riding a motorcycle. There are thousands of deaths and injuries in the United States every year to motorcyclists, and we want to help those who are due compensation from at-fault parties to get what they deserve.
Of course, our preference would be that no such motorcycle accidents ever take place to begin with. Unfortunately, a great number of these are caused by car drivers who share the road incorrectly or don't know how to drive near a motorcycle. If this is the case for you, you're risking both an accident and damage liability every time you drive in public. With that in mind, let's go over three common areas where vehicle drivers often err while driving near motorcyclists, to ensure you aren't the cause of an accident.
Lane Concerns
Perhaps the most common mistake car drivers make when dealing with motorcyclists is assuming that just because they drive a much thinner vehicle, they don't require – or don't have the right to – a full lane on the road. This is simply untrue in all situations. Motorcycles are afforded their own lane in traffic and should be treated in the exact same manner as a sedan or SUV when it comes to the way you operate in lanes.
This means that if you're changing lanes to pass a motorcyclist, you have to get fully in the passing lane. Even if it looks like there's room for you to squeeze by in the same lane, there likely isn't – and if an accident takes place, you'll be the one at fault.
Checking Blind Spots
It should be obvious and avoidable, but the number one listed reason for accidents involving motor vehicles of all types is people not checking their blind spots. If you aren't aware, the blind spot refers to the area on both sides of any vehicle that will be invisible to your line of view using rear-view mirrors – when switching lanes, for instance, we should always be checking our blind spot to make sure there isn't a car approaching the area we're turning into.
This theme extends to car drivers sharing the road with motorcyclists, as well – but with added emphasis. Motorcycles are smaller than standard passenger cars, so they can be a bit tougher to pick out. Particularly when the weather is nice and motorcyclists are more common on the road, be very careful about checking blind spots.
Turn Signal Cancellation
Most of us are used to vehicles that have self-cancelling turn signals – that is, when you've completed most of your turn, the car automatically snaps the turn signal off for you. But many motorcycles don't have these same self-cancelling signals, so you may see them driving with a turn signal on for a long period of time. If this happens, just keep your distance back in case they attempt to turn without realizing they've left their signal on.
For more on staying safe while sharing the road with motorcyclists, or to learn about any of our motorcycle injury or personal injury lawyer services, speak to the staff at the offices of John D. Halepaska today.

Multi-country Client case studies
Internationally recognized cloud and IT services giant removes conflict of interests with professional nominee resident directors
- Our Client is a large privately-owned UK company dealing with software design and development in the field of cloud technology, telecommunications and equipment for other enterprises, formed by previous IBM employees. The director of the company seeks to use Healy Consultants Group PLC large network of professional nominee directors to diversify risks on the ground, including conflict of interest in several countries. After analysis of several jurisdictions and exchange of proposals, our Client decided to proceed and engage Healy Consultants Group for professional nominee director appointments in 4 countries, one after another.
Engagement planning
- Healy Consultants Group PLC prepared and emailed our Client an engagement advancement proposal including a formal invoice per country, payable for the directorship services per annum, and engagement letter. Thereafter, Healy Consultants Group PLC prepared a detailed engagement project plan mapping out a step by step plan to engagement completion as well as began collecting director's due diligence to share with our Client's own compliance reviews.
Global nominee directorship agreement
- To optimize the engagement process in multiple countries, both Healy Consultants Group PLC Legal and Compliance Department and our Client agreed on a wording for a nominee directorship agreement that provides a framework of the director's obligations, minimizes risks and ensures all best business practices during the engagement are held by both parties. The agreement covers relevant local and international AML and bribery laws to be followed by both parties.
Professional resident director in New Zealand
- Appointing a New Zealand professional director proved straight forward due to the country's efficient Business Registry requirements. Following exchange of consent and application forms, the new professional resident director was appointed promptly for our Client's subsidiary.
Professional resident director in Mexico
- Appointing a Mexican professional director required a preparation of a detailed power of attorney, bilingual in both English and Mexican languages. The power of attorney draft needed to be approved by our Client's compliance department and notarized in the parent company's home country. This process took 3 weeks on average and following courier receipt in Mexico, the professional director was formally appointed on Board of Directors of the Mexican subsidiary.
Professional resident director in Thailand
- The process of appointing a new local director took 4 weeks because of courier and notarization obligations in our Client's home country. Our Thailand affiliate office drafted consent forms and director appointment forms in Thai language, and supplied sworn translations for our Client's understanding. This set of forms was signed off abroad together with a Board resolution, appointing the new resident nominee director. Together with a certified passport copy of the foreign beneficial owner, the set of documents was submitted to the Thai Commercial Registry for processing, The formal confirmation from the registry of the appointment took 2 business weeks.
Professional resident director in Indonesia
- The most time-consuming appointment proved to the one in Indonesia. The paperwork involved more than 5 different consent and application forms, both notarized and couriered in original to our Indonesian affiliate office. Furthermore, each Indonesian nominee director requires to oversee the company's monthly accounting information for monitoring of transaction activities to minimize various financial and reputation risks for the appointee.
Engagement completion
- Upon completion of the professional appointments, Healy Consultants prepared a company kit for this engagement, inclusive of confirmations for each directorship appointment and supplied to our Client together with Client Satisfaction Study.
Canadian client requires research on optimum crypto-friendly jurisdiction

Google Drive – Tips and Tricks You Wish You Knew Before
Setting up Google Accounts for Businesses is what we at Boost2Business always recommend to our customers. Backing up and storing data on an external drive (or cloud) is the safest way of preventing any data loss and sharing data easily with your coworkers and external collaborators.
Whether you are a regular Gmail User or you have an Enterprise Account, here are a few master tricks on how to utilize the Google Drive feature.
Browse Offline in Google Drive
Start your Google Drive settings by opening the front page of Drive.
In order to enable Google Drive to work offline, click on the Settings in the top right corner and on the General tab tick the box marked Sync Google Docs, Sheets, Slides & Drawings files to this computer so that you can edit offline. Google Drive begins caching recent Docs, Sheets, Slides and Drawings to your computer. On the plus side, if your Internet is down, you can finally get that report done without any distractions in the local café.
Search inside PDFs and Images Stored on the Google Drive
Google Drive will scan through the text in PDFs and images and find that brochure or flyer for you easily.
You can even extract text to a certain extent if you open up the image with Google Docs. Right-click on a PDF or image, then choose Open with and Google Docs.
Use Google Drive Advanced Search Features
Search by document types, specific keywords, dates, location, owners, etc…
Needless to say, Google knows a bit of something about fast searching, so we suggest you utilize this options.
Manage Files' Versions
Google Drive stores older versions of your files just in case you update something by mistake or someone overwrites your version. For a native Drive file (Google Docs,Google Sheets), open it and choose File then See revision history; for any other type of file, right-click on it in the document list and pick Manage versions. The pop-up menu to the side of each version lets you download, delete, and permanently keep files past the standard 30-day window.
Sort The Biggest Files In your Google Drive
Use this link to sort your files by file size, or click the link on the left that tells you how much space you're using, then click the small Drive entry. This is especially useful if you want to make some space on your Drive.
Sync to and from the Desktop
Install the Google Drive desktop client for Mac or Windows and you get access to all of your files on your local computer too (you can pick and choose which folders get synced). Not only does it make it super simple to upload folders and files (simply copy them into the Drive folder), it also gives you offline access to any of your files you might need on the go—and changes are automatically synced back to the cloud when you get back online.

Im still abit technologically inept so I hope what I am asking help for will be a no brainer. I am a very, very distant relitive of Gen Lewis Armistead, so I want the game to start with him already being a brigadier general… a truely excellent one.
Im also hoping to creat my own character as a Brig. Gen. made of fictional units from Virginia. Since I know so little about computers I was hoping someone could take some time… i hope not too much… out of their day and write a short of 'for dummies' version for me. If you feel it would be quicker to just do it and tell me where to cut and past I can do that too… though I would like to learn how to do this stuff.
Thank you very much,

|Product Performed to Expectations:
|Specifications were sufficient to design with:
|Demo Software was of good quality:
|Product was easy to use:
|Support materials were available:
|The price to performance ratio was good:
|57 / 60
The kit provides a useful extension to the Micro:Bit for working with year 4&5 children.
I used this primarily with a class that had experience of blockly and working with CodeBug so the initial learning curve was quite shallow. The Additional package that needs to be loaded was simple enough but some children would forget to load it at the start of a new project which led to a bit of unnecessary frustration for them. If there could be a direct url that I could like to a bookmark for them that brought up the Blockly editor and pre-loaded the additional package, that would be handy.
The kit itself is well made and sturdy enough for children of the age I was working with and the wires are easy to replace as they use standard connectors if you needed to make longer ones for example.
The additional package all made sense and the fact there was no documentation in the box was a real positive for me (I would have removed it anyway) as it lead to some fantastic experimentation from the learners (and me) to find out how each element worked. We have only begun to experiment with a few of the inputs/outputs but they have all been massively enthused by working with this product - I only wish I had more than one fo them!
If you were looking for an additional feature that would add to this product, the Micro:Bit has provision to run from a battery pack using 2 AAAs so if the Mi:Node had this funtionality too, it would enable some more inventive placements around the school. For example, my students wanted to use it to alert teachers to high noise levels and running from batteries would have made this simpler.

A Hobbit Here, A Hobbit There..
From: Balin of the Mines
A political page I occasionally visit quoted the very british "Guardian" in an editorial dealing with George Bush's political future. I would not draw your attention to it, except for its literary allusion in an early paragraph. Amazing where those pesky hobbits turn up, isn't it?

Shopping at Whole Foods is now much cheaper
Amazon may have just come up with a way to lure online shoppers back to physical stores: discounts.
The company is rolling out a 10 percent discount at Whole Foods Market for Prime members. The retailer is launching the new discount program in all stores across Florida and says it plans to expand the discount to all Whole Foods Market and Whole Foods Market 365 stores nationwide starting this summer.
A visit to the Whole Foods in South Tampa, Fla., on Wednesday revealed a Prime promotional blitz, with plentiful signage throughout the store (photos below) pointing to discounted items.
"With the announcement of new Prime member discounts at Whole Foods, Amazon continues to infiltrate the grocery space," said Sylvain Perrier, president and CEO, Mercatus. "Now with Amazon, and new entrants on the low-end like the Aldi's and Lidl's, along with Dollar General investing in grocery, the pressure for a share a shrinking middle-class pie will get much tougher. What options do traditional grocers have but to reinvent where they play and how they do business. Smart retailers will figure this out, but they don't have a lot of time."
Amazon is wise to launch this initiative in a market such as Florida.
The retailer needs to understand how the discount will impact sales and the capabilities of its supply chain. If demand for key sale items exceeds Whole Foods' ability to replenish, it will be left with out-of-stocks and will disappoint the Prime members it aims to delight with the new benefit.
Lessons learned in Florida will improve demand forecasts for featured items and product allocation ahead of a nationwide rollout, especially since Amazon knows the address and purchase history of every Prime member.
Amazon says while Prime deals will be prominently featured in-store as shown above, customers can also go to the Whole Foods Market app to learn about many of the best offers each week.
"We're thrilled for Whole Foods Market to be part of the Prime experience," said John Mackey, Co-founder and CEO of Whole Foods Market. "By offering greater discounts on sale items, and exclusive deals like $10 off a pound for sustainably-sourced, wild-caught halibut, launching savings for Prime members is an amazing opportunity to bring our industry-leading quality standards and delicious food to more customers at a better price."
This is the latest benefit for Prime members shopping Whole Foods Market.
Earlier this year, the companies launched free two-hour delivery on Whole Foods Market groceries through Prime Now in 10 cities, with more to come in 2018. Eligible Prime members also receive 5% Back on Whole Foods Market purchases when using the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Card.
"This new Prime benefit at Whole Foods Market is a perfect pairing of healthy and delicious food at even more affordable prices," said Cem Sibay, Vice President, Amazon Prime. "Our vision is that every day Prime makes your life better, easier and more fun, and shopping at Whole Foods Market with exclusive deals and savings is all of this and more."
Amazon and Whole Foods Market have reduced prices on hundreds of grocery staples and fresh foods, including: responsibly-farmed salmon, raw shrimp and tilapia; organic baby kale and organic broccoli; animal welfare-rated lean ground beef; and organic and no-antibiotic, boneless skinless chicken breasts.
And shopping at Whole Foods Market is more convenient with Amazon Lockers, where customers can pick up and return eligible Amazon purchases at nearly 400 Whole Foods Market stores nationwide. Plus, customers can now shop for Amazon devices, such as Echo and Fire TV, while grabbing groceries at select stores.
To get the Prime discount, customers must download the Whole Foods Market app, sign in with their Amazon account and then scan the app's Prime Code at checkout. Or, customers can opt in to use their phone number to save at checkout.
Whole Foods Market has over 470 stores in the United States, Canada and United Kingdom.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Aaron Judge was rewarded for his record-breaking season Monday with the American League Rookie of the Year award.
The Yankees slugger was a unanimous choice for the honor, as was Dodgers outfielder Cody Bellinger in the National League voting. The awards are voted on by members of the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
Judge broke Mark McGwire's major league record for home runs by a rookie with 52, many of them jaw-dropping, tape-measure shots. He led the American League in homers, runs scored (128) and walks (127) while batting .284 for a Yankees team that fell one win short of the World Series.
The 25-year-old did battle through a lengthy slump following the All-Star break — in which he broke the major league record for consecutive games with a strikeout. But he bounced back with a strong September, hitting .311 with 15 homers and 32 RBIs during a playoff chase.
Judge becomes the ninth Yankee to win Rookie of the Year and the first since Derek Jeter received the honor in 1996. Other Yankees to win the award, which began in 1947, were Gil McDougald (1951), Bob Grim (1954), Tony Kubek (1957), Tom Tresh (1962), Stan Bahnsen (1968), Thurman Munson (1970) and Dave Righetti (1981).
MORE: Report: Yankees To Interview Boone, Meulens For Manager Job
Now the question is whether Judge can also take home the AL MVP, which will be announced Thursday. He and Astros second baseman Jose Altuve are widely considered the front-runners.
The Red Sox's Fred Lynn (1975) and the Mariners' Ichiro Suzuki (2001) are the only players who have won Rookie of the Year and MVP in the same season.
"Obviously it was an amazing, remarkable year that no one would have predicted," Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. "When you drop 52 — I think he really should have had 53, one that instant replay didn't protect. … It should be a higher number. It was just an incredible year."
The Yankees entered this season with marginal expectations by their standards, but the prodigious power of Judge and catcher Gary Sanchez transformed them almost overnight into an exciting young team with tremendous potential. They made the postseason as a wild card.
"It's exciting times right now to be wearing pinstripes," Judge said. "To come up through the minor leagues with a lot of these guys, watch them develop, and now to see what they're doing at the major league level is really impressive."
Like Judge, Bellinger set the rookie home run record in his own league, hitting 39 — a feat made more impressive by the fact that he was not called up to the majors until late April. The 22-year-old, who split time between first base and the outfield, batted .271 with 97 RBIs for the National League champions.
"The future is bright in L.A.," Bellinger said. "I know that I'm excited, as well as the other teammates. Obviously, we didn't have the end goal this year, but we're going to try and take it to the next level next year."
Bellinger made his big league debut in late April. By the time he turned 22 on July 13, he had 25 home runs. The 6-foot-4 first baseman is an appropriate counterpart to the powerful Judge. They even hit from opposite sides of the plate: Judge is a righty and Bellinger swings left-handed.
"He's not just a guy that went up there and hit home runs," Judge said. "He was a guy that played high-caliber first base for them. He could go out there and roam center field, left field, right field, wherever they needed him. To have that type of versatility and produce the numbers he did is something that you don't find too often."
It's the second year in a row a Dodger won Rookie of the Year. Last season, Corey Seager received the award.
The Red Sox's Andrew Benintendi finished second in the AL voting while the Orioles' Trey Mancini was third.
In the NL voting, Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong was second while the Pirates' Josh Bell finished third.
