I never thought the time would come.
On Sunday, I took off my jersey and untied my skates for the last time. Sure, there will be beer leagues and drop-ins, but it will never be the same.
Throughout the last 20 years of my life, I dedicated my life to hockey. Some of my first memories growing up are roller blading around my garage at my old house in Traverse City, Michigan, making up situations in my head. We all did it. It’s the championship game in overtime, and the puck is on your stick.
I remember sitting on my Dad’s lap and watching Pittsburgh Penguins games with him. He would occasionally have a rum and Pepsi with him in a big glass, and when he’d jokingly offer me a sip, I always forgot there was booze in it and would take a drink anyway, only to spit it out in disgust.
I met my first friends through hockey, many of whom I still keep in contact with to this day. There’s something about the game that creates untouchable bonds between a group of people. Bonds that distance doesn’t break, which is something so rare.
Looking back, I was pretty lucky with all the things I got to experience. I got to be a captain in high school, juniors and college; I broke scoring records; I was first-team all-state twice; I got to play competitively until I was 23 years old.
However, there is no accomplishment that begins with the letter “I” that will ever come close to what I will miss most about playing hockey. One thing you learn early in hockey, is how much more important “we” is than “I.” The things I will miss most aren’t scoring goals, big hits and back-door feeds. I’m going to miss the locker room, the road trips, the stories, the chirps, the parties, the heads that turn when everyone walks into the bar together, and just the overall atmosphere that is created when a team is clicking on all cylinders.
“I did it for the story” lives deep inside many of us.
There is something to be said about hockey players. We’re a breed unlike any other, and it may be cliché, but the only way to understand it is if you have been a part of it. It’s never just a team, it’s a family. You will fight with your family, but when it comes down to it there isn’t a thing in the world you wouldn’t do to look after them.
On the ice, as in life, the person who is rewarded is the person who scratches and claws the farthest.
While the amount of turmoil I went through growing up pales in comparison to many others, the ice was always my therapy. You can’t ever skate away from your problems, but you can at least avoid them for the hour or two you are at the rink. When you step on the ice, life is perfect and all your problems have been resolved for the time being.
There’s a reason why it’s much easier to go to the rink at 5 a.m. than it is for work or school.
When life gave me adversity, hockey was my counseling. Watching my Mom go through breast cancer treatment when I was in high school wasn’t easy. Most of the time, I didn’t know how to act or what to say. I was a stubborn kid who refused to accept what was happening. But when I was on the ice playing in front of her, I always knew where she was. After games, she was always the first to greet me. Win or lose, she didn’t care. She knew I was happy.
During those moments at the rink, nothing was wrong.
While we all chased the dream growing up, there’s a reason why so many of our relationships fail. We’ve already fallen in love with the game because we know it’s something that will never leave us.
Hockey never cheats on you; Hockey never gets divorced; Hockey never dies. There is always a fresh sheet of ice somewhere. There is always a net to be sniped, and that first deep breath of cold air when stepping onto the ice is a feeling that can’t be topped.
Without hockey, my life would mean little. Without the people I’ve met through hockey, my life would mean nothing.
So after 20 years, it kills me to say goodbye. Thank you for everything you’ve given me, I will always be grateful. You’ve taught me more about myself and about life than I could have ever imagined.
To those still in action, keep chasing your dream. Keep bettering yourself. But most importantly, enjoy the ride and don’t miss a moment.
My career may be over, but the memories will last forever.

Under Florida law, stalking is communicating or physically following someone for no legitimate reason, in a way that causes emotional distress. Stalking includes harassment in person, over the Internet, over the telephone or anywhere else where a person can be reached.
In fact, cyberstalking is explicitly prohibited under Florida law. What formerly was considered by many to be merely bothersome, rude or a normal reaction to a relationship ending has become criminalized under Florida’s Stalking laws and can subject an individual to severe penalties.
Stalking laws can be vague about the difference between mere persistence and genuine harassment and stalking behavior; it may ultimately be up to the subjective judgment of law enforcement officers in deciding whether to make an arrest. The Law Firm of Steven W. Bowden can assist you by providing a Pensacola stalking defense attorney from the Firm to represent you in working towards clearing up and challenging cases that may be simple misunderstandings, overheated temporary disputes that occurred in a relationship, an exaggerated complaint for behavior which is bothersome, but not stalking, or a "he said, she said" situation where there is a clear dispute about the allegations made against our client. Often times one accused of stalking finds that they are charged with an offense or subject to a restraining order, even though the alleged victim initiated the initial contact or that the contact was initially viewed as mutually acceptable.
A conviction for stalking can carry punishments ranging from probation up to fifteen years in state prison, depending on the circumstances and the type of stalking charged.
A defendant may be charged with aggravated stalking if he or she makes a credible threat of violence, violates a restraining order or other court order, repeats the offense or stalks a minor under 16. If you are accused of any type of stalking or harassment, you could face not only possible incarceration, but other sanctions as well. A Pensacola criminal defense stalking lawyer from our Firm can represent you in Escambia County, Santa Rosa County and Okaloosa County and provide you the advice, counsel and help you need as you face these challenging charges.
An allegation of Stalking can have a devastating effect on your reputation, your livelihood and overall well being.
It is crucial that a Stalking case is handled with extreme care and caution by an experienced Stalking Defense Lawyer. Each Stalking case needs to be examined to determine if it can be dismissed and removed from your record. If this is a first offense, the courts in Escambia County all have programs designed for first time youthful offenders which will may ultimately result in a reduction of your Stalking charges. You may also be eligible to seal or expunge your Stalking case.
Florida Statutes section 784.048 - Stalking.
(a) "Harass" means to engage in a course of conduct directed at a specific person that causes substantial emotional distress in such person and serves no legitimate purpose.
(b) "Course of conduct" means a pattern of conduct composed of a series of acts over a period of time, however short, evidencing a continuity of purpose. Constitutionally protected activity is not included within the meaning of "course of conduct." Such constitutionally protected activity includes picketing or other organized protests.
(c) "Credible threat" means a threat made with the intent to cause the person who is the target of the threat to reasonably fear for his or her safety. The threat must be against the life of, or a threat to cause bodily injury to, a person.
(d) "Cyberstalk" means to engage in a course of conduct to communicate, or to cause to be communicated, words, images, or language by or through the use of electronic mail or electronic communication, directed at a specific person, causing substantial emotional distress to that person and serving no legitimate purpose.
(2) Any person who willfully, maliciously, and repeatedly follows, harasses, or cyberstalks another person commits the offense of stalking, a misdemeanor of the first degree.
(3) Any person who willfully, maliciously, and repeatedly follows, harasses, or cyberstalks another person, and makes a credible threat with the intent to place that person in reasonable fear of death or bodily injury of the person, or the person's child, sibling, spouse, parent, or dependent, commits the offense of aggravated stalking, a felony of the third degree.
(4) Any person who, after an injunction for protection against repeat violence, sexual violence, or dating violence pursuant to s. 784.046, or an injunction for protection against domestic violence pursuant to s. 741.30, or after any other court-imposed prohibition of conduct toward the subject person or that person's property, knowingly, willfully, maliciously, and repeatedly follows, harasses, or cyberstalks another person commits the offense of aggravated stalking, a felony of the third degree.
(5) Any person who willfully, maliciously, and repeatedly follows, harasses, or cyberstalks a minor under 16 years of age commits the offense of aggravated stalking, a felony of the third degree.

And so the show was done.
Alarmingly it is almost six weeks ago now but in the interim we have been gathering together our objects and memories for the exhibition at the Peter Scott Gallery at Lancaster University. This is now installed and only waiting for one last piece of work before the preview at 6.30pm on Thursday 17th October.
It is an altogether quieter and more reflective thing, assembling the exhibition (the archive), following the high drama of the show; the last minutes of making it and the tension and release of its presentation. We haven’t written about it, perhaps out of tiredness, or not quite knowing what to say, or maybe because so many other people have written such lovely things about it and we’re a little overwhelmed.
In time we shall. It feels as though there might be a book and perhaps there will be a reprise of the show itself… Watch this space! (Or perhaps some other forum that is slightly more regularly updated! LiveatLICA would be a good bet…) For now, thank you to everyone who came, and for all the extraordinary responses we have received. And do come and see the exhibition.

Seacoast Defences of South Carolina and Georgia.
By General A. L. Long, Chief of Artillery.
The seacoast defences occupied the attention of the Confederate Government as soon as it became apparent that the war was inevitable. The line of coast extending from the entrance of the Chesapeake bay to the mouth of the Rio Grande presented innumerable bays, inlets and harbors, into which vessels could run either for predatory excursions or with the intention of actual invasion. The Federals having the command of the sea, it was certain that they would take advantage of this open condition of the coast to employ their naval force as soon as it could be collected, not only to enforce the blockade which had been declared, but also for making inroads along our unprotected coast.
That the system of defence adopted may be understood, I will describe a little in detail the topography of the coast. On the coast of North Carolina are Albemarle and Pamlico sounds, penetrating far into the interior; then the Cape Fear river, connecting with the ocean by two channels, the southwest channel being defended by a small inclosed fort and a water battery. On the coast of South Carolina are Georgetown and Charleston harbors. A succession of islands extend along the coast of South Carolina and Georgia, separated from the main land by a channel, which is navigable for vessels of moderate draft from Charleston to Fernandina, Florida. There are fewer assailable points on the Gulf than on the Atlantic. Pensacola, Mobile, and the mouth of the Mississippi were defended by works that had hitherto been regarded as sufficiently strong to repulse any naval attack that might be made upon them. Immediately after the bombardment and capture of Fort Sumter, the work of sea coast defence was begun and carried forward as rapidly as the limited means of the Confederacy would permit. Roanoke Island and other points on Albemarle and Pamlico sounds were fortified. Batteries were established on the southeast entrance of Cape Fear river, and the works on the southwest entrance of that river were strengthened. Defences were constructed at Georgetown, and at all assailable points on the northeast coast of South Carolina. The works of Charleston harbor were greatly strengthened by earthworks and floating batteries. The defences from Charleston down the coast of South Carolina and Georgia were confined chiefly to the islands and salient points bearing upon the channels leading inland. Defensive works were erected at all important points along the coast. Many of the defences, being injudiciously located and hastily erected, offered but little resistance to the enemy when attacked. These defects were not surprising, when we take into consideration the inexperience of the engineers, and the long line of seacoast to be defended. As soon as a sufficient naval force had been collected, an expedition under the command of General Butler was sent to the coast of North Carolina, and captured several important points. A second expedition, under Admiral Dupont and General Sherman, was sent to make a descent on the coast of South Carolina. On the 27th of November, Dupont attacked the batteries that were designed to defend Port Royal harbor, and almost without resistance carried them and gained possession of Port Royal. This is the best harbor in South Carolina, and is the strategic key to all the south Atlantic coast. Later, Burnside captured Roanoke Island, and established himself in eastern North Carolina without resistance. The rapid fall of Roanoke Island and Port Royal harbor struck consternation into the hearts of the inhabitants along the entire coast. The capture of Port Royal gave the Federals the entire possession of Beaufort island, which afforded a secure place of rest for the army, while the harbor gave a safe anchorage for the fleet. Beaufort island almost fills a deep indenture in the main shore, being separated the greater part of its extent by a narrow channel, which is navigable its entire circuit. Its northern extremity extends to within a few miles of the Charleston and Savannah Railroad. The main road from Port Royal to Pocotaligo crosses the channel at this point. The evacuation of Hilton Head, on the southwestern extremity of Beaufort island, followed the capture of Port Royal. This exposed Savannah, only about twenty-five miles distant, to an attack from that direction. At the same time, the Federals having command of Helena bay, Charleston was liable to be assailed from north Edisto or Stono inlet, and the railroad could have been reached without opposition by the road from Port Royal to Pocotaligo.
Such was the state of affairs when General Lee reached Charleston, about the first of December, 1861, to assume the command of the departments of North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. His vigorous mind at once comprehended the situation, and with his accustomed energy he met the difficulties that presented themselves. Directing fortifications to be constructed on the Stono and the Edisto and the Combahee, he fixed his headquarters at Coosawhatchie, the point most threatened, and directed defences to be erected opposite Hilton Head, and on the Broad and Saltcatchie, to cover Savannah. These were the points requiring immediate attention. He superintended in person the works overlooking the approach to the railroad from Port Royal, and soon infused into his troops a part of his own energy. The works he had planned rose with magical rapidity. A few days after his arrival at Coosawhatchie, Dupont and Sherman sent their first reconnoissance in that direction, which was met and repulsed by shot from the newly erected batteries, and now, whether the Federals advanced towards the railroad or turned in the direction of Charleston or Savannah, they were arrested by the Confederate batteries. The people, seeing the Federals repulsed at every point, regained their confidence, and with it their energy.
Having received orders to report to General Lee, I joined him in December, a few days after he had assumed command of the Department, and was assigned the duty of Chief of Artillery and Ordnance.
The most important points being now secured against immediate attack, the General proceeded to organize a system of seacoast defence different from that which had previously been adopted. He withdrew the troops and material from those works which had been established on the islands and salient points which he could not defend, to a strong interior line, where the effect of the Federal naval force would be neutralized. After a careful reconnoissance of the coast, he designated such points as he considered it necessary to fortify. The most important positions on this extensive line were Georgetown, Charleston, Pocotaligo, Coosawhatchie and Savannah. Coosawhatchie being central, could communicate with either Charleston or Savannah in two or three hours by railroad; so in case of an attack, they could support each other. The positions between Coosawhatchie and Savannah, and those between Charleston and Coosawhatchie, could be reinforced from the positions contiguous to them. There was thus a defensive relation throughout the entire line.
At this time there was a great want of guns suitable for seacoast defence. Those in use had been on the coast for more than thirty years, and were of too light a calibre to cope with the powerful ordnance that had been introduced into the Federal navy. It was, therefore, desirable to arm the batteries now constructed with heavy guns. The Ordnance Department being prepared to cast guns of the heaviest calibre, requisitions were made for eight and ten-inch columbiads for the batteries bearing on the channels that would be entered by gunboats. The heavy smooth bore guns were preferred to the rifle cannons for fixed batteries, as experiments had shown that the crushing effect of the solid round shot was more destructive than the small breach and deeper penetration of the rifle bolts. The difference of range was not important, as beyond a certain distance the aim could not be accurate. By the last of December many batteries had been completed, and other works were being rapidly constructed. When the new year of 1862 opened, there was a greater feeling of security among the people of South Carolina and Georgia than had been felt for several months.
The information received from every quarter led to the belief that the Federal Government was making preparations for a powerful attack upon either Charleston or Savannah. In anticipation of this attack, every effort was made to strengthen these places. General Ripley, who commanded at Charleston, and General Lawton, the commander at Savannah, ably seconded General Lee in the execution of his plans, while Generals Evans, Drayton and Mercer assisted him at other points. The Ordnance Department, under the direction of its energetic chief, Colonel Gorgas, filled with wonderful promptitude the various demands made upon it. This greatly facilitated the completion of the defences.
The Federal troops on Beaufort island were inactive during the months of December, January and February, and the fleet was in the offing, blockading Charleston and Savannah. About the first of March the Federal gunboats entered the Savannah river by way of the channel leading from Hilton Head. The small Confederate fleet was too weak to engage them, so they retained undisputed possession of the river. They then established batteries to intercept the communication between Fort Pulaski and the city of Savannah. This fort commands the entrance to the Savannah river, twelve miles below the city.
A few days after getting possession of the river the Federals landed a force, under General Gilmore, on the opposite side of the fort. General Gilmore, having completed his batteries, opened fire about the first of April. Having no hope of succor, Fort Pulaski, after striking a blow for honor, surrendered with about five hundred men.
General Lee received an order about the middle of March assigning him to duty in Richmond, in obedience to which he soon after repaired to that place. The works that he had so skilfully planned were now near completion. In three months he had established a line of defence from Wingaw bay, on the northeast coast of South Carolina, to the mouth of Saint Mary's river in Georgia―a distance of more than two hundred miles. This line not only served for a present defence, but offered an impenetrable barrier to the combined Federal forces operating on the coast, until they were carried by General Sherman in his unopposed march through Georgia and South Carolina, near the close of the war.
That the importance of these works may be properly understood, it will be necessary to know what they accomplished. In the first place, they protected the most important agricultural section of the Confederacy from the incursions of the enemy, and covered the most important line of communication between the Mississippi and the Potomac. Besides these material advantages, it produced great moral effect in giving the inhabitants of the Southern States a feeling of security and confidence.
We perceive in this campaign of General Lee in Georgia and South Carolina results achieved by a single genius equal to those which could have been accomplished by an incalculable force.

The site dates back as far as the Iron Age with Walton Castle set upon a hill fort. Reference to it is also made in the Doomsday Book as belonging to “Gunni The Dane”. However the construction as we now see it took place, according to Pevsner Encyclopedia, between 1615 and 1620. It was designed as a Hunting Lodge for Lord John Poulett, a wealthy and renowned Somerset land owner and Member of Parliament.
The land surrounding Walton Castle had been acquired by marriage. The English Civil War marked a decline in such enormous and valuable holdings by absentee landlords and then by 1791, Walton Castle lay abandoned and derelict. The roof and floors then fell in and parts of the building became a convenient home for dairy cattle. Despite its exposed position,the structure remained meriting Pevsner`s description in 1957 as “remarkable as a piece of ornamental planning”. Restoration by the largest landowners in the area was abandoned and taken up by a city financier who returned Walton Castle to its former glory.

The August 2017 edition of the CIPD’s People Management magazine features a powerful article on resolving workplace disputes. It emphasises that our traditional formal processes are not necessarily the ideal solution, particularly in relationship conflicts.
So what do I see as the resolution options?
To start with we need to acknowledge that conflict is inevitable in any organisation, indeed positive conflict is essential as a force for change and innovation. Most of the time conflicts will be minor – a disagreement over how to address a problem, a misunderstanding on what was wanted, some feedback that is poorly communicated. In almost all these situations the people involved will sort things out themselves and that will be the end of it.
Where HR becomes involved is when it is not sorted. The people with the issue and their line manager have not been able to nip it in the bud and it lands on an HR manager’s desk as an employee relations issue to resolve.
Of course the HR manager can reach for the policies and procedures folder to pull out the company grievance policy. Though how many of those day-to-day relationship issues can really be sorted with the formal process?
Calling in a mediator is another option. Is it really necessary at this stage to bring someone else in to mediate? It’s a relatively low-level issue at the moment. After all, if you were rewiring your house you’d call in an electrician, but to change a lightbulb or replace a plug you’d do it yourself, wouldn’t you? But you would still need to know what you were doing. If you put the wrong wire in the wrong terminal you could end up with a serious situation.
The answer is to equip HR professionals to deal with low-level conflict themselves. That’s why I developed the 5 step AGREE model some years back. AGREE comprises five phases from initiating the intervention through to resolution. The five stages take place during two sets of meetings, together with preparation and follow up.
You decide an intervention is needed and set up confidential individual meetings with the people involved. You open the meeting explaining to them how the process will work.
In the individual meetings you invite them to explain what the situation is, clarifying how it has impacted them and checking how they would like the relationship to be.
In a joint meeting with both participants ask them each to explain to each other how the situation is for them and start to draw out what the issues are.
For each of the issues identified work through possible options and find mutually agreeable solutions.
End the meeting by agreeing commitment to the actions for each solution. Implement what is agreed and follow up.
AGREE now forms the process element of ‘DIY Mediation’, a simplified mediation style approach where you follow the AGREE process, apply the four key skills and utilise DIY Mediation tools and resources. If you’d like to add DIY Mediation to your toolkit, look at the options for learning here.

With a sharp knife or vegetable peeler, remove the yellow rind from the lemons, cutting into 3cm (1 inch) long strips about 3mm (1/8 inch) wide.
Remove the remaining white pith from the lemons.
In a large pan (NOT aluminium) add the sliced fruit, rind and water. Leave to stand in a cool place for 4 hours.
Put the pan on the stove and bring to the boil over a high heat, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat, cover the pan and leave it to simmer for about an hour, until the fruit is soft and tender.
Add the sugar, stirring constantly until it is all dissolved.
Whilst adding the sugar bring the mix back to the boil. It should be boiling well, but not trying to fling itself out of the pan.
Reduce to a gentle boil after 5 minutes and allow to cook, uncovered, until it reaches 220 °F . This will take about 40 minutes.

"...And I grew up that way and I started going to school when I was about, oh, I think 6 years old. And we didn't have any rubbers to wear to school or any overshoes or rubber boots like you fellas have today. When I was a little feller I used to have to wear shanks - that was made out of the skin off of cattle's legs. I used to make them first when I was small out of deer's and then when we got big enough we made them out of small cattle that was a year old, and then as we got older they would be made out of two year old cattle's hind feet and we wore the shanks to school. And I lived about, oh, 700 yards from the schoolhouse and in the wintertime the weather was so bad - lots of big snowstorms - I used to have to crawl to school on my hands and knees over the drifts - the drifts was about, oh, 10 - 12 feet high in the road and you couldn't walk through them. So we'd have to take a lunch in our pocket and our books we'd tie them together and tie them on our back and then we'd crawl over these snowdrifts till we got down by the schoolhouse where it wasn't drifted any. At nighttimes why we go back and we'd have to crawl over them home.
Well, when we got home we all had chores to do, we each had our own chores. We'd start out by carrying the kindling wood and then we'd have to feed the chickens and feed the pigs and feed the calves - we always had a few calves around, we had cattle on the farm - and we'd feed these calves and give them their supper and then we'd go outdoors to play. And we used to have big snow drifts, oh around the house 12 feet high, and we'd take shovels and we'd dig big holes in these snow drifts and we'd have them for our camp where we live in. And then out along the fence where the snow wasn't blowing we'd cut big squares of snow out and lift them up and we'd make a great big fence. We'd called it a fort. Well then some would get on one side of the fort and some on the other and we'd make snowballs and throw them back at one another and whoever got hit why they was out of the game. The one that finished up and had the most men when we got through why we were the ones that won the game...."

Lahore, Pakistan: When Infinix Mobility inaugurated its line of products with the slogan “The future is now”, it truly meant it. Since 2013, the year the company was founded, it has not only stood up to its reputation but has frequently challenged the traditional norms of technology and aesthetics. It has not only imparted uniqueness of unlimited possibilities to its products but has created smartphones that speak for themselves.
For a few months, the social space has been abuzz about Infinix working on an exciting new dimension of mobile photography; something with the name of Double Amazing. As some unofficial reviews have spoken of it in a subtle manner, it might revolutionise the dependency of users on a single camera. If we are to believe what gurus are indicating, Infinix is going to launch Hot 6 Pro, which has a dual rear camera and a dual lock system. The prospective smartphone buyers are very curious though as to how the device would look and feel like.
Hot 6 Pro is going to break the barriers of screen resolution by pushing the limits of the traditional screen and pushing the envelope to an amazing 18:9 Infinity screen. This Infinity screen would not only catch the eyes of gamers and video lovers but also book aficionados, as it offers more screen real estate for work and for play. Once again Infinix is introducing an Eye Care feature to help protect eyes of users who spend a lot of time using their phones especially at night, which can cause strain and dryness of eyes.
Adding two cameras to snap a single shot is slowly becoming the talk of the town especially since the news of Infinix planning to launch Double Amazing hit the Social Media. According to the tech gurus, the Hot 6 Pro would house two rear-facing cameras of 13 MP and 2 MP capable of rendering images with extraordinary depth of field. It is amazing to see how mobile photography has become more powerful and user-friendly than conventional photography. Varied camera dynamics are not what Infinix is going to end its scope of imagination with and intends to go far beyond by introducing highly advanced image editing tools, including 9-grade beauty mode that makes the subject stand out in the photos. The front cam is no less than the rear ones. A 5MP 4-in-1 camera is all that it takes to have a perfect selfie.
The processing power of Hot 6 Pro looks to be as impressive as its cameras. It is expected that Infinix will equip Hot 6 Pro with a Qualcomm SnapDragon 425 processor that ensures smooth processing, even for heavy duty multi-tasking operations.
With the advent of tools that can penetrate into the private folders in smartphones, cell phone companies are finding it challenging to keep up with the pace of malware development to control its implications. Infinix seems to have a dual solution to that; a face lock plus finger lock. Both of these features ensure that the privacy of the users remains protected and safe. And to round off the specs, Hot 6 Pro would have a huge 4000nAh battery to sustain operations all day long, making Hot 6 Pro an ideal choice for everyone from selfie-lovers to students and business professionals.
At an unbelievable price of about Rs. 19,000, Hot 6 Pro seems like an unbeatable choice for a smartphone. The Hot 6 Pro promises to offer its users a world without boundaries; a life without limitations.
