  • Baseball Game Fun Patch Program
    Baseball Game Fun! Did you know that the game of baseball can be traced back to the American Revolution (1775-1783)? According to History.com, a game that resembled baseball is said to have been developed from two English games, both which involved the use of a bat and a ball: 1. Rounders (a children’s game brought to New England by the colonists); and 2. another popular game—Cricket. During the American Revolution, there were different versions of these games played in schoolyards and college campuses all over the country. In 1845, more than 170 years ago, the New York Knickerbocker Baseball Club was founded. One of its members, Alexander Joy Cartwright, created a set of rules that were the foundation for the baseball played today! He decided upon a diamond-shaped infield, foul lines, and the three-strike rule. In addition, Cartwright got rid of the dangerous practice of tagging runners by throwing baseballs at them (Ouch!). By 1846, the Knickerbockers played their first official game, and baseball became an official sport, unique to America. And then, in 1943, the All-American Girls Baseball League (AAGBL) was created, and in nine years, more than 600 women played in the league. Within the first five years, the number of spectators in attendance at games was over 900,000! One of the most noteworthy teams in the AAGBL was the Rockford Peaches of Illinois. They were one of two teams to play in every AAGBL season, and they won the league championship in 1945, 1948, 1949 and 1950. Throughout this time, Dorothy Kamenshek, Lois Florreich, Dorothy Harrell, Carolyn Morris, Alice Pollitt, Ruth Richard, Rose Gacioch, Eleanor Callow, and Joan Berger were all named to All-Star teams.

  • J Sainsbury Plc Preliminary Results Announcement 2020-21 Wednesday, 28 April 2021 - 9:30 Am
    J Sainsbury plc Preliminary Results Announcement 2020-21 Wednesday, 28 April 2021 - 9:30 am Simon Roberts Chief Executive Officer Good morning. Welcome to our 2020/2021 results presentation. Thank you everyone for joining us today. It’s been an exceptional year for the business, for our people and in everything we've delivered for our customers. First and foremost, I want to recognise the outstanding contribution of my colleagues, of our entire team. They have risen to the huge challenges and have been heroic in how they have looked after our customers, and each other, every day. I’m really proud of the business and the part we played within the wider industry response, as food supply chains really stepped up to feed the nation. My thanks also to our suppliers for all their support and partnership. They have done a fantastic job throughout the last 12 months. Every day in every part of what we do, we cared about what mattered most for our customers, our colleagues and the communities we serve. Safety first, prioritising the elderly, disabled and vulnerable from day one, protecting availability, supporting shielding colleagues, supporting communities with food donation. Our values really came to the fore. And it’s been a time of extraordinary change, learning and agility for the business too. We have responded and adapted well throughout the pandemic. We have delivered at pace, every step of the way and as a result, we’re stronger & fitter for the future. I set out a clear plan and strategy in November to transform our busines over the next three years.

Grant by her daughter in loving memory and thanksgiving for her being a loving, Christian Mother. BUT ONLY ONE MOTHER -- Most of all the other beautiful things in life come by twos and threes, by dozens and hundreds. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers, sisters, aunts and cousins, but only one Mother in the whole world. <!&ur ~rrftagr The Methodist Church The Methodist Church is a church of Christ in which "the pure Word of God is preached, and the Sacraments duly administered. " This church is a great Protestant body, though it did not come di- rectly out of the Reformation but had its origin within the Church of England. Its founder was John Wesley, a clergyman of that church, as was his father before him. His mother, Susanna Wesley, was a woman of zeal, devotion, and strength of character who was perhaps the greatest single human influence in Wesley's life. Nurtured in this devout home, educated at Oxford University, the young John Wesley, like a second Paul, sought in vain for re- ligious satisfaction by the strict observance of the rules of re- ligion and the ordinances of the church. The turning point in his life came when, at a prayer meeting in Aldersgate Street, London, on May 24, 1738, he learned what Paul had discovered, that it is not by rules and laws, nor by our own efforts at self-perfection, but by faith in God's mercy as it comes to us in Christ, that man may enter upon life and peace.

  • A Historical Look at the Shops – Past and Present in the Colchester Town Centre Area
    A HISTORICAL LOOK AT THE SHOPS – PAST AND PRESENT IN THE COLCHESTER TOWN CENTRE AREA 1 INTRODUCTION Having written about walking around our town and others over Christmas and the month of January, looking at churches in Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk, the weekend of 1st and 2nd February 2014, saw me writing and photographing the main shops in our town of Colchester and trying to find out the National History of the businesses. So here is my story again …… 99p STORE (84-86 Culver Street East) 99p Stores Ltd. is a family run business founded in January 2001 by entrepreneur Nadir Lalani, who opened the first store in the chain in Holloway, London, with a further three stores opening later that year. In 2002, Lalani decided to expand the business throughout the UK and has rapidly developed 99p Stores, operating a total of 129 stores as of March 2010 and serving around 1.5 million customers each week, undercutting their main rival Poundland by a penny. As of mid-2009 the company offered more than 3,500 different product lines throughout its stores. Most of their stores are based in the south of the UK, although there are stores as far north as Liverpool and Hartlepool. The chain saw accelerated store expansion upon the collapse of Woolworths Group, where they took the opportunity to acquire 15 of these former stores, increasing their estate to 79 at that time. Landlords are now regarding 99p Stores as an anchor tenant due to the significant number of customers one of their stores can bring to a location.
