The entire north end of the Coliseum is filled with used items on sale for local chari- ties. “We keep expanding a little bit every year,” said church member Carol Gay. “We have darn good help here.” The sale includes all dona- tions since August of last year. Gay said they have toys, clothes for men, women and children, house wares, linens, glassware, books, tools and much more. “The idea is to move it and people can use it,” Gay said. St. James takes donations from the community and sorts, organizes and prices all the items.

The easiest thing would be to thank all the many people that have been contacted during the researching of this history. There has been nothing but cooperation from everyone, for which I am really thankful. However there are a few people who must be given special thanks for their help, patience and forbearance. The first of these must be my wife Katheleen who racked her brains remembering all she could about her family, while digging out all her old photographs and letters. She also listened patiently to my endless theories, hopes, successes and failures, besides searching records in Alberta, Ontario and Ireland Archives and tramping through numerous cemetaries in these same areas. Without her the task would have been considerably harder. The same can be said, in varying degrees, to her family from whom I continually requested information and pictures. Mabel M "Wright" Duncan who wrote "The Duncans of Bethel" must be commended for the work she put into the book, while her niece Margaret Elizabeth Duncan, of Edmonton is thanked for introducing me to it. While on the subject of books Patricia Harts "Pioneering in North York", is a must to anyone who is researching that area.

  • Tolliver Calls Game-Winning Rebound in Hawks Win Over Bucks
    Tolliver calls game-winning rebound in Hawks win over Bucks By Chris Vivlamore The Atlanta Journal-Constitution MILWAUKEE — Anthony Tolliver called it. Not a game-winning shot but a game-winning rebound. Tolliver’s rebound of a missed free throw by teammate Dahntay Jones with 22.4 seconds remaining preserved the Hawks’ 104-99 come-from-behind victory over the Bucks Sunday afternoon. With a one-point lead, 100-99 after Jones’ first free throw, Tolliver looked at Jeff Teague and told his teammate a missed shot would be all his. “Yeah, I told him right before it happened, ‘I am going to get this rebound,’” Tolliver said. “I just tried to analyze the situation. I knew he has missed a few free throws earlier so I just wanted to be aggressive toward the rebound. I saw an opportunity. They didn’t box me out and I jumped and it came to me.” Tolliver called timeout after gathering the loose ball forcing the Bucks to foul. Al Horford and Teague each made two free throws in the closing seconds for the final margin. The rebound may not have been the biggest play of the game by Tolliver. He set up Jones’ free throws with a steal seconds earlier. With the game tied at 99-99 after the Hawks erased a five- point deficit with 2:45 remaining and a Bradley Center crowd cheering wildly, Tolliver tipped a pass intended for J.J. Redick that Jones gathered before being fouled. “I was face guarding, being up, on J.J. Redick,” Tolliver said.

Creasy, President c/o Dr. Ralph Smiley, Advisor Bloomsburg State College Department of Communications Studies Bloomsburg, PA 17815 Dear Mr. Creasy: In response to your letter of April 16, 1983, I regret that the national activities of Delta Kappa Alpha are, for all intents and purposes, inactive at this time. We do have a chapter at U.S.C. but even here our students are so busy with their studies and production activities that they have little time for "organization" type efforts. A number of alumni who might be expected to become involved in this type of activity have chosen to put their energy into the U.S.C. Cinema-Television Alumni Association. The work of this group is much more related to the new facilities to house the School of Cinema-Television now under constr~ction. I believe there is still a need for Delta Kappa Alpha and in time I hope that leadership will surface to build upon the foundation and traditions that do exist. Thank you for your interest.

  • TWO MAJOR TRANSACTIONS SIGNIFICANTLY RESHAPE HAWKS FUTURE Atlanta Conveys to Brooklyn the Contract of Joe Johnson for Five Playe
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, July 11, 2012 CONTACT: Arthur Triche, Jon Steinberg or Jason Roose, Hawks Media Relations (404) 878-3800 TWO MAJOR TRANSACTIONS SIGNIFICANTLY RESHAPE HAWKS FUTURE Atlanta conveys to Brooklyn the contract of Joe Johnson for five players, draft picks and other considerations; also obtains Devin Harris from Utah for Marvin Williams ATLANTA, GA ----- Atlanta Hawks President of Basketball Operations/General Manager Danny Ferry today announced the team has traded Joe Johnson to the Brooklyn Nets for five players, a first- and second-round pick and other draft considerations, and also acquired Devin Harris from the Utah Jazz for Marvin Williams. In return for Johnson, the Hawks get guards Anthony Morrow, Jordan Farmar and DeShawn Stevenson, and forwards Johan Petro and Jordan Williams. The two picks are Houston’s 2013 first-round pick and the Nets’ second-round pick in 2017. “The Hawks want to thank Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams for their contributions on the court and in the community,” said Ferry. “We felt with the team that we had, we were probably going to maintain the status quo and not be able to reach a championship level. We now have the opportunity to work within the new CBA in a better way that will allow us to move forward and be opportunistic in the future as we work to build a sustainable championship level team.” Morrow returns to the Atlanta area after playing his collegiate ball at Georgia Tech. Undrafted in 2008, the 6-5 guard was signed as a free agent by the Golden State Warriors where he spent two seasons, before he was traded to the Nets for a future second-round pick in July 2010.

  • Seattle Times
    Seattle Times May 23, 2006 Experts: Friends, Relatives a Greater Risk of Child Sexual Abuse By Natalie Singer, Seattle Times Staff Reporter She walked into the courtroom last week in a ponytail and a puffy jacket and settled into the witness chair. Over the next hour, the roomful of strangers would come to know her well. The 9-year-old is a Girl Scout who loves chocolate cake and gym class. Her little brother always messes with her stuff. She hopes to dress up as a bride for Halloween. And when she was 7, she got chlamydia. The sexually transmitted disease happened, a prosecutor said, because a man who was a close friend of the family’s had raped her. It seems extraordinary. But nearly every month, sometimes every week, similar stories are repeated before King County judges and juries. The details differ, but most of the cases have one key thing in common: Despite the Hollywood scripts, public-awareness campaigns and a recent spate of new state laws that focus on Internet predators and stranger abductors, nine out of 10 sexually abused children are assaulted by family members or close acquaintances, say experts. Most often, it happens right in the children’s own homes. Those who counsel victims, and arrest and prosecute accused molesters say they worry about the attention given to Internet and stranger predators. What’s being lost, they say, are the crucial, and often much harder, discussions about when relatives or other close caregivers hurt a child. Changing the Message “Teaching our children about stranger danger sends them the wrong message if that’s the only message we give,” said Robert Schilling, lead detective in the Seattle Police Department’s Sex and Kidnapping Offender unit.
