Emlyn Hughes, cheat
1977/78 FA Cup 3rd Rd, Chelsea 4 Liverpool 2
Liverpool's Emlyn Hughes feigns injury in a pathetic attempt to get Bill Garner of Chelsea sent off. Luckily back in those days the referees had common sense, and in this case the ref told Hughes to get on with the game.
Just goes to show that cheating is nothing new in football, Liverpool were clearly doing it over 30 years ago.
And let's face it, if Big Bill Garner had really whacked Hughes, squeaky Emlyn probably wouldn't have got up again.
Hare-y Kane installed at The New Lawn
Hare-y Kane has made his first appearance in an FGR shirt, after being installed at The New Lawn.
The 5ft sculpture is a part of the Cotswolds AONB Hare Trail and will be positioned outside the League Two side’s stadium throughout the event, which runs until September 9th 2018.
We tried dermaplaning, a £150 treatment where your face is scraped with a scalpel
Dermaplaning is a beauty treatment that uses a scalpel to scrape dead skin and peach fuzz off your face. It uses a very sharp blade which is the same used in surgeries to cut the skin, so it needs to be used only by a certified doctor.
We went to Dr. David Jack’s practice in London to try it. He said: It helps with things like fine wrinkles if it’s done over a long period of time. Also in the short term, it helps with luminosity of the skin.
The treatment starts with an alcohol and antiseptic wash and an acid gel cleanser. Dr. Jack then starts scraping. At the end of the treatment, a vitamin C serum is applied, together with hyaluronic acid serum and a vitamin A (retinol) cream.
Critics say it’s unnatural to remove the skin as it protects against bacteria and UV rays. Others are worried their facial hair will grow thicker.
You are shaving the top of the hairs off. You’re not doing anything to the follicle. You’re not changing the growth of the hair. There’s no risk of that whatsoever, said the doctor.

Randall Korman: Facade: Missing in Action
Architecture Spring 2018 Lecture Series - January 30, 2018 in Slocum Hall.
Professor Korman joined the Syracuse Architecture faculty in 1977, and, over the next forty years, he became one of the school’s most important and influential administrators and faculty members. Perhaps his greatest contribution, however, is the role he played and continues to play in shaping the educational experience of the several hundred architecture students fortunate enough to have been and to be in his studio courses and his thesis advisees.
“Historically, the rhetoric of architecture has centered largely on the phenomenon of the façade. As the principal surface of mediation, contextualization and representation, the facade carries the lion’s share of responsibility for containing the internal environment and confronting the outer world, often doing this across a very thin layer. As a result, the contemporary envelope can be one of the most complex and multidisciplinary of all components of a building.
The façade is the first surface one encounters when approaching a building and the last when departing. It provides the representative image for all architecture and is how we typically recall a structure. It has the unique capacity to embody the idea of the building as a whole and is the principal instrument by which the architect shapes the observer’s impression of it. Very simply, when we think of a building we usually first think of its façade.
And yet, the architectural façade also has been the most neglected building component within the various discourses of the discipline. With the dramatic development of sophisticated systems of enclosure, significant advances in materials technology, and the impact of parametric design, there has been a corresponding increase in the number of books and articles that deal with the technological and performative aspects of the building envelope. But, curiously, very few discuss the façade as an instrument of the culture and principal engine of the building’s rhetoric. This component of contemporary architectural discourse seems to be largely missing, begging the question: How is it that the most conspicuous part of any building is conspicuously absent from our considered reflection?
For the past 25 years I have been addressing these matters through my research, teaching, writing and lecturing. My lead-off presentation will speak to some of the issues attending to the production of the modern façade. Entitled ‘Façade: Missing in Action,’ the principal thesis of my talk is that the profession’s current preoccupation with parametricism, blob architecture and minimalism has resulted in a shift away from the historic traditions of creating ‘face’ and the defining urban space in place of creating iconic structures and exotic ‘skins.’ The result has been the privileging of the individual building’s identity over the collective responsibility to create public space, begging the question: ‘What is the future of urban space?’

Arras
Arras is the capital of the Pas-de-Calais department, which is half of Nord-Pas-de-Calais, France’s fourth most populous region. It is located in Northern France on the Scarpe river. The Arras plain lies on a large chalk plateau bordered on the north by the Marqueffles fault, on the southwest by the Artois and Ternois hills, and on the south by the slopes of Beaufort-Blavincourt. On the east it is connected to the Scarpe valley.
Established during the Iron Age by the Gauls, the town of Arras was first known as Nemetocenna, which is believed to have originated from the Celtic word nemeton, meaning 'sacred space'. The first mention of the name Arras appeared in the 12th century. Some hypothesize it is a contraction of Atrebates, a Belgic tribe of Gaul and Britain that used to inhabit the area. The name Atrebates could have successively evolved to become Atrades, Atradis, Aras and finally Arras. Others believe it comes from the Celtic word Ar, meaning 'running water', as the Scarpe river flows through Arras.

SUMMARY
=======
International Men's Day (IMD) is an annual international event celebrated every year on 19 November. Inaugurated in 1992 on February 7th by Thomas Oaster, the project of International Men's Day was conceived one year earlier on 8 February 1991. The project was re-initialised in 1999 in Trinidad and Tobago. The longest running celebration of International Men's Day is Malta, where events have occurred since 7 February 1994.Jerome Teelucksingh, who revived the event, chose 19 November to honour his father's birthday and also to celebrate how on that date in 1989 Trinidad and Tobago's football team had united the country with their endeavours to qualify for the World Cup. Teelucksingh has promoted International Men's Day as not just a gendered day but a day where all issues affecting men and boys can be addressed. He has said of IMD and its grass roots activists, They are striving for gender equality and patiently attempt to remove the negative images and the stigma associated with men in our societyThe objectives of celebrating an International Men's Day, set out in The Six Pillars of International Men's Day, include focusing on men's and boys' health, improving gender relations, promoting gender equality, and highlighting male role models. It is an occasion to highlight discrimination against men and boys and to celebrate their achievements and contributions, in particular for their contributions to community, family, marriage, and child care. The broader and ultimate aim of the event is to promote basic humanitarian values.International Men's Day is celebrated in over 80 countries, on 19 November, and global support for the celebration is broad. International Men's Day is followed by Universal Children's Day on 20 November, forming a 48-hour celebration of men and children, respectively. Additionally, the month of November is also occasionally recognized as International Men's Month. International Men's Day is supported by a variety of organisations including UNESCO. Speaking on behalf of UNESCO, Director of Women and Culture of Peace Ingeborg Breines said of IMD, This is an excellent idea and would give some gender balance. She added that UNESCO was looking forward to cooperating with the organizers ...

SUMMARY
=======
England is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. It shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west. The Irish Sea lies northwest of England and the Celtic Sea lies to the southwest. England is separated from continental Europe by the North Sea to the east and the English Channel to the south. The country covers five-eighths of the island of Great Britain, which lies in the North Atlantic, and includes over 100 smaller islands, such as the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight.
The area now called England was first inhabited by modern humans during the Upper Palaeolithic period, but takes its name from the Angles, a Germanic tribe deriving its name from the Anglia peninsula, who settled during the 5th and 6th centuries. England became a unified state in the 10th century, and since the Age of Discovery, which began during the 15th century, has had a significant cultural and legal impact on the wider world. The English language, the Anglican Church, and English law – the basis for the common law legal systems of many other countries around the world – developed in England, and the country's parliamentary system of government has been widely adopted by other nations. The Industrial Revolution began in 18th-century England, transforming its society into the world's first industrialised nation.England's terrain is chiefly low hills and plains, especially in central and southern England. However, there is upland and mountainous terrain in the north (for example, the Lake District and Pennines) and in the west (for example, Dartmoor and the Shropshire Hills). The capital is London, which has the largest metropolitan area in both the United Kingdom and the European Union. England's population of over 55 million comprises 84% of the population of the United Kingdom, largely concentrated around London, the South East, and conurbations in the Midlands, the North West, the North East, and Yorkshire, which each developed as major industrial regions during the 19th century.The Kingdom of England – which after 1535 included Wales – ceased being a separate sovereign state on 1 May 1707, when the Acts of Union put into effect the terms agreed in the Treaty of Union the previous year, resulting in a political union with the Kingdom of Scotland to create the Kingdom of Great Britain. In 1801, Great Britain was united with the Kingdom of Ireland (through another Act of Union) to become the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. In 1922 the Irish Free State seceded from the United Kingdom, leading to the latter being renamed the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
