In honor of that occasion, I have asked some of my staff -- along with some of Milton’s prominent citizens -- to talk about their favorite teacher. For many of us, even decades after leaving school, the memory of a cherished teacher will never leave us. Please take a moment to thank your child’s teacher with an email or a handwritten note. I know they will be grateful. Here are some memories of “favorite teachers” from the past. – Mary C. Gormley Tucker Principal Marcia Uretsky: “My favorite teacher was Mrs. Hahn who taught ninth grade Algebra and tenth grade Geometry. Math was always one of my more difficult subjects and I always shied away from it. Mrs. Hahn taught math in a way that I could understand it and not just memorize it. I became an A student under Mrs. Hahn's instruction. I also learned how an excellent and passionate teacher can affect a student's growth in a content area and of their perception of themselves as a student.

  • The Norman J. Hubner Athletic Hall of Fame
    THE NORMAN J. HUBNER ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME Ron “Doc” Reed was one of the finest three-sport athletes ever produced at LaPorte High School. Standing 6-6, he made a great target as a football end, was an excellent scorer and rebounder in basketball and a power pitcher in baseball. After graduating from LPHS in 1961, he attended the University of Notre Dame to play basketball and baseball and had a particularly outstanding career on the hardwood. In 1965 Reed signed a contract with the Milwaukee Braves - who later moved to Atlanta, Ga. - as a free agent and had a brief minor league career. From 1965-67 he also filled the key sixth-man role for the Detroit Pistons and could have had a successful NBA career had he not chosen to concentrate on baseball. He made his debut for the Braves on Sept. 26, 1966. In 1968 he made the National League All-Star team and in 1969 he had his best-ever record (18-10), helping Atlanta win its first division title. On April 8, 1974 he was the winning pitcher as Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruth’s record with his 715th career home run. He spent part of 1975 with the St. Louis Cardinals. He then had eight very successful years as a relief pitcher with the Philadelphia Phillies. A fierce competitor, he had 17 saves and a brilliant 2.23 ERA in 1978. One year later he led the majors with 13 wins in relief. He was a key member of the Phillies’ 1980 World Series champions and the 1983 World Series runner-up.

  • The Newsletter of the Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club February 2019
    The Newsletter of the Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club ________________________________________________________________________________ February 2019 By Dave Badertscher; photos by Linda Lovejoy The Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club held its annual Gameboree banquet and fundraiser on Saturday, January 19, 2019, at the Atlanta Marriott Northwest at Galleria. This year’s theme was “All-Stars, Gold Gloves and National League Honors.” More than 180 Braves fans, honored guests, and Braves officials turned out for the Fan Club’s largest event of the year. Emcee Paul Byrd (pictured below) was a big hit. The reception and silent auction opened at 5:00 with a fine selection of Braves and other baseball memorabilia. Thanks go to Silent Auction and Raffle Coordinator Nate Morgan and his crew, as well as to Fan Club members who generously donated items. As usual, all proceeds go to the Phil Niekro Scholarship Fund. This year guests in the Auction Room were entertained by Braves organist Matthew Kaminski. Quite a nice treat! Once everyone was seated for dinner in the Cobb Ballroom, Fan Club President Howard Evans introduced the guests and award winners at the head table. Atlanta’s favorite tenor, Timothy Miller, sang “The Lord’s Prayer.” During dinner folks enjoyed a slide presentation highlighting the Fan Club’s many fun and worthwhile activities over the past year. Following dinner, Howard thanked Club members who were involved in planning, organizing, and setting up this year’s event, especially Gameboree Program Coordinator Wayne Coleman and Logistics Coordinator Judy Messer. Howard talked about upcoming Club activities in 2019, including six monthly social gatherings in the SunTrust Cabanas, our Major League trip to Washington, DC, on June 21-23, and minor league trips to see the Rome Braves and the Gwinnett Stripers this summer.

  • Patronage, Performance, and Reputation in the Eighteenth-Century Church
    PATRONAGE, PERFORMANCE, AND REPUTATION IN THE EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY CHURCH DANIEL REED OXFORD BROOKES UNIVERSITY Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the award of Doctor of Philosophy in History SEPTEMBER 2019 1 Lancelot Blackburne, Archbishop of York. After unknown artist. Mezzotint, sold by Thomas Bakewell. 1724 or after. Private collection of Daniel Reed. 2 For Freya 3 Abstract The perceived success of the revisionist programme in dissipating the ‘longest shadow in modern historiography’ calls into question the ongoing relevance of ‘optimistic’ versus ‘pessimistic’ interpretations of the Church of England in the long eighteenth century. And yet, the case of Lancelot Blackburne, Archbishop of York (1724-1743), has not benefitted from the ‘revisionist turn’ and represents an unparalleled problem in accounts of the Georgian episcopate. Whilst Benjamin Hoadly has been the most maligned bishop of the period for his theology, Blackburne is the most derided for his personal imperfections and supposed negligence of his episcopal duties. These references are often pernicious and euphemistic, manifesting in several quasi-apocryphal tales. The most regularly occurring being accounts of Blackburne’s lasciviousness, speculation over the paternity of his chaplain Thomas Hayter, and the Archbishop’s association with piracy. As long as these bastions of resistance to revisionism remain, negative assumptions will linger on in contemporary studies of the Church, regardless of whether they are reframed by current trends. As such, this thesis utilises under-explored archival sources to reorient Blackburne’s case to its historical context. This is achieved through an exploration of the inter-connected themes of patronage, performance, and reputation.

    Minnesota Twins Daily Clips Wednesday, January 13, 2016 Milone part of group of arb-eligible Twins. MLB.com (Bollinger) p. 1 Arbitration expected to be more costly for Twins. Star Tribune (Miller) p. 1 Milone, five other Twins file for arbitration. Fox Sports (Garro) p. 2 All-time great bullpens: 1970s. ESPN (Schoenfield) p. 2 Minnesota Twins Top 10 Prospects. Baseball America (Berardino) p. 4 Milone part of group of arb-eligible Twins Rhett Bollinger | MLB.com | January 12, 2016 The Twins had six players file for arbitration on Tuesday, with the deadline to exchange salary figures coming Friday. Left-hander Tommy Milone, relievers Kevin Jepsen and Casey Fien, and infielders Trevor Plouffe, Eduardo Nunez and Eduardo Escobar all filed for salary arbitration after being tendered contracts on Dec. 3. If recent history is any indication, the Twins are likely to agree to contracts with most or all of their arbitration-eligible players on or before Friday. Minnesota had six players eligible for arbitration last year, and the club agreed to terms with Milone, Fien, Plouffe and Nunez on the same day they exchanged contract figures. Escobar is arbitration-eligible for the first time this year, while Jepsen was acquired by the Twins in a trade with the Rays before the non-waiver Trade Deadline. Clubs such as the Blue Jays, Braves, Brewers, Dodgers, Indians, Marlins, Pirates, Rays and White Sox employ a file-and-trial policy that treats Friday as a firm deadline before going to a hearing, but the Twins don't employ such a policy. For example, the Twins couldn't reach agreements with Brian Duensing and Jordan Schafer on the same day they exchanged figures last year, but the club signed both of them a week later to avoid an arbitration hearing.
