About Steve Hill — Steve Hill Construction Consulting, Inc.
Steve Hill, founder and president of Steve Hill Construction Consulting, Inc., has four decades of experience in all phases of construction. Below is a brief overview of his construction experience. You can also request a copy of his most recent curriculum vitae (CV) via the contact form.
As the owner of a residential construction company in a small town, I learned early that quality and customer service are the key to longevity. I started as a concrete and framing contractor, working for other contractors. Using my skills as a selftaught draftsman, I started designing and building complete from the ground up custom homes. Things do occasionally go wrong in any kind of project including construction. The key to customer satisfaction, however is fixing problems before they become major issues. Without good customer service in a small town, you never get the referrals necessary to sustain your business. My business survived well on word-of-mouth advertising for sixteen years. The hands-on experience I gained included plan design and drafting, all sub-trades of construction, and contract negotiation. I built a working relationship with two local engineers (structural and geotechnical). Together we restored foundations on homes that fell victim to soils subsidence, earthquake damage and flood damage. Projects included new home construction, custom home remodeling, and foundation remediation. The problem solving skills I developed enabled me to work for major construction companies in Los Angeles, Orange County, and eventually a forensic architectural firm.
I was hired as a site inspector performing inspections on condominiums. The skills required include the ability to assess the maintenance requirements for all building components. The purpose is computation of site conditions for maintenance reserve funding.
I was hired as a Project Estimator for sales involving residential and light commercial rehabilitation projects. I developed the ability assess residential damage and develop a scope of necessary repairs. It was then essential to translate it into a unit pricing format recognized for government financed rehabilitation projects. In order to bridge the gap between insurance adjusters and contractors, it was crucial to understand the requirements of both disciplines. Claims settlement for earthquake, flood and fire losses became a specialty of mine. Later during my term of employment with Ruiz Brothers, I was responsible for development, marketing, sales, and project management for a new foundation repair division, utilizing helical pier anchors for foundation stabilization.
As the Senior Project Manager I was responsible for estimating and project supervision for residential, commercial reconstruction, and structural remediation. I became knowledgeable in destructive testing supervision, forensic investigation and report writing. I also developed a marketing and sales program for five counties in Southern California.
During my term at CBI, I was started as Destructive Testing Operations Manager responsible for marketing, sales, contract negotiations, project management, billing, accounting, and project closure. The division had 35 employees and achieved gross sales exceeding $2,100,000 in 1998. I then worked my way into the consulting division of the company. I was responsible for field inspections, defect list preparation and cost estimating for investigations relating to construction defect litigation.
As a Project Manager I was responsible for field forensic work including photograph documentation, visual inspections, destructive testing and field research. In the office I was responsible for client-attorney interaction, file preparation for trial, code violation research, report writing and cost estimating.
I founded my consulting firm to offer practical solutions to building performance issues. After over a decade of serving a diverse base of clients on hundreds of projects, I'm still convinced that this is the best job I have ever had. Every day is different, and every engagement brings new challenges to the table. Over the years, I have been fortunate to develop a number of long-term relationships and more often than not, my clients are collaborators and partners. My consulting practice began primarily as an expert witness service for construction defect lawsuits, but has broadened and evolved. Rather than simply reacting to construction defects, I am working to actively prevent not just defects, but the inevitable conflicts that result.
I have told people that "I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up." I do know that I thoroughly enjoy what I am doing now, and the people I work with.

Set in the grounds of Windsor Castle, The Royal Windsor Horse Show and Windsor Castle Royal Tattoo is a quintessentially British event on a truly international scale. It is the UK's largest outdoor show and features international competitions in four different equestrian disciplines. It also encompasses military displays involving The King's Troop and The Household Cavalry, as well as various other regiments from the British Army, Navy and Air Force. Visiting troupes have also participated, including the legendary French Foreign Legion.
The Queen alternates her more formal duties in the Royal Box of the temporary arena with informal visits to members of the regiments, as well as inspections. She is also to be seen walking between the many different events that are spread throughout the grounds of the castle - her'backyard.
Anderson & Low look behind the scenes during this very special week of events, to reveal the remarkably informal and intimate relationship between participants, horse-breeders, support staff and the general public. The resultant images present a superb kaleidoscope of portraits - intimate, truthful character studies of the participants, and of the uniquely magical setting in which this annual pageant unfolds.
The limited edition book of The Queen's Backyard, published by Dewi Lewis Publishing was released June 2015.

Another public consultation event has been planned in our community forMonday, September 19 at the North York Civic Centre from 7 to 9 PM. Information on the previous recommendations along with new updates are available on the website www.drawthelines.ca. You can also send in your thoughts through an online survey on the site.
John has been circulating a petition to ensure that Council takes definitive action on one of these options before the end of the year to ensure that changes can be made ensure a more equal playing field in time for the 2018 municipal election. For more information on the process or this petition, please contact our office.
The first report from the Ward Boundary Review panel was released in August and proposes significant changes to our ward as part of an effort to more equitably balance population across the city by the next municipal election in 2018. The report included five options for consideration by stakeholders and the public. See the report here.
Interested residents can also complete their survey online.
Once public consultations are completed, the panel will be preparing a single option as a proposal to Executive Committee and eventually, City Council. A final decision is expected in the spring of 2016.
Did you know that with a population of over 88,000 at the time of the 2011 census that Ward 23 has a population more than 50% greater than the city's average ward? Our ward is close to double the size of some and continues to grow.
To address issue of fair representation at Council, the City of Toronto has launched its review of ward boundaries. The Review will look at the number of people living in each ward, as well as other factors such as geographic communities of interest and neighbourhoods, major physical and natural boundaries and population trends, to re-draw the lines among Toronto's wards. Changes would come into effect for the 2018 election.
For information about the review, visit the Review website.
You can have your say on the matter at a local public consultation meeting at Edithvale Community Centre on Saturday, January 17, 2015 from 9 AM – 12 PM. You will also find a complete listing of meetings across the city here or, you can complete an online survey.
John would also welcome your thoughts on this process. Feel free to e-mail us.

February Appeal 2017
My Dear Friends:
Happy New Year! I wish you and your family peace and prosperity in 2017.
Sharing health information with a group of adolescent sisters.
I have the same wishes for the hundreds of families we support in Central America and Mexico, as I know you do too.
It is thanks to your support and commitment that Horizons and its partners were able to accomplish so much in 2016.
In 2017, we will continue to work together to maximize human development, and bring peace and dignity to communities throughout the region.
One project, in particular, is really taking off in 2017. That is the Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Project in Guatemala. This four-year project, launched in Spring 2016, is bringing new hope and a better life to thousand of Indigenous women and children in Totonicapán, Guatemala.
A sign written in K'iche helps a health promoter discuss better hygiene practices with a family.
To date, more than 5,200 women have participated in 78 women's discussion groups focusing on maternal health and best health practices. Indigenous women were eager to have a safe space to discuss health and wellness issues, and to learn and put into practice what they had learned. Discussions focused on the promotion of breastfeeding, improved nutrition, full vaccination, and early detection of danger signs in high-risk pregnancies.
This training – which you support with your dollars – means the difference between life and death for Indigenous women and newborns.
I recently visited Guatemala, and saw the project - which is spearheaded by our dedicated partner PIES de Occidente - in action. One day, in just over four hours, PIES health educators visited four households for follow-up visits, checked on three families, and helped a group of adolescent sisters (one of whom had a six-month old baby boy). A remarkable achievement, given the poor road conditions and great distances they had to travel.
PIES de Occidente health promoters walk long distances in the rural area of Totonicapán in order to reach women and children at risk.
Our project is the first to bring significant health services to Totonicapán's most remote villages. One resident, a mom of four and six months pregnant with her fifth child, heard about the project through its Household Visit Campaign. She told me how happy she was to have her very first prenatal visit with a midwife, who spoke her native language of K'iche. She had had difficulty with her last pregnancy, and was committed to following the midwife's instructions and staying alert for the danger signs explained to her.
The support of the male head of the house is a crucial element of the project. During this mom's visit, a PIES health educator took advantage of her husband's presence to discuss an emergency birth plan. The family home is located in a gorge, making access in and out during an obstetric emergency a challenge. Emergency birth planning with the communities and families is extremely important in order to saves lives in rural Totonicapán communities.
Horizons' Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Project in Guatemala offers a big breath of hope to the Indigenous people of Totonicapán.
It has, and will continue to, save the lives of pregnant women and infants. And now, at last, those infants are likely to survive, to grow healthy and strong because they have an essential resource: health care. Parents are discovering how to care for their children, and entire families are benefiting as a result.
There is a tremendous sense of happiness in my heart when I see the enthusiasm and hope in the Indigenous people of Totonicapán. In 2017, the project will continue to roll out, and I look forward to telling you about those exciting developments in our Spring newsletter.
Throughout 2017, we will be there, walking side by side with all the people and communities we support in Central America and Mexico. With your help, we can change dire realities into possibilities.
Won't you contribute $50, or $100 today to help us to continue to support our friends in Guatemala and the rest of Central America and Mexico?
The investment you make does make a difference! I've seen it with my own eyes.

SmartMumbaikar To Launch Ridesharing On Missed Call
NT Balanarayan
By NT Balanarayan	balu@medianama.com October 24, 2013
SmartMumbaikar is revamping its website to let users in Mumbai share cars, auto, bikes or any other ride if they are headed in the same direction. To find a ride, all one has to do is give a missed call to a number, following which, all details regarding co-passengers will be sent as an SMS to the user.
The service is targeting those who commute to work and back. Due to this approach, those interested will need to fill in their home and office locations while signing up. SmartMumbaikar founder Raxit Sheth says that the service will go live only after Diwali, by when they are hoping to get enough people to register. They don't have any plans to launch a mobile app as of now and are focused on missed call triggered service.
This is interesting because most vehicle sharing startups in India currently focus only on carpooling until now, but this new approach gives those who commute by auto or taxi also, an option to share rides and save money. Sheth says that they started working on the concept after the auto fares in Mumbai were hiked recently.
Monetization: Unlike the earlier version which was free, users will now have to pay a monthly fee of Rs 400 to use the service, which according to Sheth, is small compared to the amount people will save by sharing rides. What's worth noting here is that all payments between users happen offline and the site does not get any share of it.
Sheth said when they launched SmartMumbaikar launched last year, their main goal was to reduce anonymity and increase trust among those sharing ride. To this end, the company had used Facebook Connect to show relevant details like common friends between those sharing a ride, to increase their trust. With the new version however, they are going with an email-based verification system.
Users will not be able to sign up for the service without an official email id, i.e. one cannot register with a Gmail or Yahoo email address. If the user signs up with an email address that's associated with a personal domain, SmartMumbaikar will verify the domain before allowing the user to start using the service.
While a good feature, we feel this user restriction will drastically reduces the number of users who can use the service. Not many common people have an official id and many of those who do rarely use it. So, on one hand SmartMumbaikar is trying to make it easy to get a ride, but manages to alienate a lot of potential customers with email verification.
We feel the company also probably re-introduce the Facebook login mechanism for users who are interested in using the service but don't have an official address. Alternatively, they could also roll out an invite system, which allows existing users to invite their friends who don't have an official address but are interested to use the service.

Irish actor Barry Ward stars alongside Suranne Jones in new Sky drama
Irish actor Barry Ward has been in the lives of Irish people for more than 20 years after playing John Paul in Roddy Doyle's BBC series Family.
Now all grown up, the former child star is expected to get a lot more recognition as he will soon star opposite Suranne Jones in a new Sky drama.
The 38-year-old Dubliner plays her self-made music promoter husband in Save Me, from the makers of Line of Duty and also written by Lennie James.

The star of the RTE TV series Rebellion and the critically acclaimed feature Maze plays Suranne Jones' on-screen husband, Barry Sawyer, a music promoter and devoted father-of-two.
All is going well until Nelly, the former partner of Claire (Jones) shows up accusing Barry of being responsible for his 13-year-old daughter's disappearance.
As a police investigation gets underway, Claire finds herself questioning everything around her.

Jones will be familiar to aufiences for her gripping roles in Scott & Bailey and Doctor Foster.
In the first episode, Barry is seen walking into the bedroom where Claire is lying on the bed.
The series follows the story of Nelly, played by Lennie James, living on a London council estate.
Her daughter has gone missing and she asks Barry 'is this you?' The scene ends with Claire hitting herself and Barry hugging and restraining her saying 'stop, stop, stop'.

Save Me is the story of an unlikely hero who embarks on a rocky road to redemption.
Lennie James (The Walking Dead, Snatch) stars as Nelly, a charmer, a chancer, a fighter, a liar and, at his age, a man who should know better.
But his life on a London council estate is about to take on a dramatic new purpose, and now the only thing that matters is finding the missing teenager.
This is how Barry Ward looked in Britannia, when he auditoned for the Save Me role. Pic: Sky
Ward came to national attention when he was just 13, 'street cast' by the BBC for the role of John Paul Spencer in the screen version of Family by Roddy Doyle .
The actor landed his role as a salt farmer called Sawyer in Britannia while filming The Fall alongside Jamie Dornan.
The actor, who starred in RTE's Rebellion and The Maze alongside Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, expects comparisons to Game of Thrones, which has become the most successful television series in the world.

Ward, had been playing a wild looking Celtic warrior in Roman epic Britannia when he was called to audition to be a music promoter in Sky's thrilling new kidnap drama Save Me.
His casting led him to star as Suranne's husband after she had just finished filming Dr Foster — one of the biggest shows of 2017.
Barry told the Irish Sun at the time that he loved working with he actor, saying: 'She really is at the top of her game, and so super-prepared for everything. I found her a joy to work with.'

Q: C++ linear linked list information. I'm very lost as to what is wrong EDIT: I figured it out, thanks for the help from those who answered.
Could anybody help me with a bit of my code? I'm new to C++, and I can't get my program to work. It just runs the switch statement without actually executing any of the functions I have written.  I'm sure it's something fairly obvious, but I'd appreciate some help greatly.
My goal is to be able to make a linked list that I can add items to and display them, and ultimately move an item to the end of the list if the user wants to. I really appreciate your reading this. Here is my code:
class places  // class to hold all of the places to be inserted into the list
{

public:
    places();  // constructor
    void destroy(); // deconstructor
    void addToList(int placement); //adds items to list
    void displayAll(); // displays all items
    void displayFirst(); // displays first item and moves the first to the end       of the LLL

private:
    places * head;
    places * current;
    places * last;
    places * temp;

    char name[100];
    places * next;
};

places::places()
{
head = NULL;
last = NULL;
current = NULL;
temp = NULL;
int placement = 0;
}

void places::destroy()
{
delete[]head;
delete[]last;
delete[]current;
}

void places::addToList(int placement)
{

if (!head)
{
    current = new places;
    cout << "What is the name of the location you'd like to enter?" << endl;
    cin.get (name, 100, '\n');
    cin.ignore (200, '\n');
    current -> name;
    current -> next = NULL;
    last -> name; // attachs it to the last node
}
else
{
    head = new places;
    cout << "What is the name of the location you'd like to enter?" << endl;
    cin.get (name, 100, '\n');
    cin.ignore(200, '\n');
    head -> name;
    head -> next = NULL;
    last = head;
}
}
void places::displayAll()
{
if(!head)
{
    cout << "There are no items to display!" << endl;
    return;
}

temp = head;
cout << "Your favorite locations are: " << endl;

while(temp)
{
    cout << temp -> name << endl; // prints the current node
    //below sets the node to be printed to the next one
    if(temp -> next)
    {
        temp = temp -> next;
    }

    else
    {
        cout << "That's all there is!" << endl;
    }
}
}

void places::displayFirst()
{
if(head)
{
    cout << head -> name << endl;
    while(temp!=NULL)
    {
        temp = temp -> next;
    }
    temp = head;
    delete[]head -> name;
}
 }

bool again()
{
char answer;

cout << "Do you want to enter another place? (Y/N)" << endl;
cin >> answer;

if(toupper(answer) == 'N')
{
    return false;
}

return true;
}
int main()
{
int i = 0;
places favPlaces;
int option;
do
{
    cout << "These are your options! PICK ONE!!!" << endl;
    cout << "\t1. Add to beginning of list\n";
        cout << "\t2. Add to end of list\n";
        cout << "\t3. Display the list\n";
        cout << "\t4. Display first item\n";
        cout << "\t5. DESTROY THE LIST!\n";

        cout << "Enter a choice : ";
        cin >> option;

    switch(option)
    {

        case 1:
            favPlaces.addToList();
            break;

        case 2:
            favPlaces.addToList();
            break;

        case 3:
            favPlaces.displayAll();
            break;

        case 4:
            favPlaces.displayFirst();
            break;

        case 5:
            favPlaces.destroy();
            break;

    }

i++;
}while(i < 4);

}

A: The main thing I see with the code is failure to distinguish between information about the list (the places type) and information belonging to each node.
Here's a short tutorial on linked lists that I wrote in response to another such beginner's question.
I think that's the best help I can give here, that delving into the current code would not be fruitful. So, take a look at it. Perhaps try to work through the examples. :-)

"A randomized controlled trial of a correspondence-based intervention f" by Frank Deane, Sarah Marshall et al.
Deane, F. P., Marshall, S., Crowe, T., White, A. & Kavanagh, D. J. (2015). A randomized controlled trial of a correspondence-based intervention for carers of relatives with psychosis. Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy: an international journal of theory and practice, 22 (2), 142-152.
Background: Family members play a crucial role in supporting the recovery of loved ones with psychosis. The journey of recovery is not only traversed by the person experiencing the mental illness but also by their family. Interventions to support these families have traditionally either focused on psychoeducation or addressed problematic interactions or expressed emotion. Family programmes have far less frequently emphasized supporting family members' adjustment to the challenges posed by their relative's disorder or their recovery from associated distress. The study compared a control condition that received only a psychoeducational booklet (Information) and a condition also receiving a correspondence-based interactive recovery-oriented intervention (Connections). The Connections group was expected to show greater improvements in recovery knowledge, well-being, experiences of caregiving, hopefulness and distress. Method: A randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of two correspondence-based family interventions delivered to 81 carers of relatives with psychosis. Results: Intent-to-treat analyses showed no differential outcomes between conditions, but an analysis of participants who substantially completed their allocated treatment showed that carers receiving Connections had significantly more improvements in well-being, positive experiences of caregiving and distress. Conclusions: Correspondence interventions that support carer's recovery may result in more positive mental health for those who complete key elements of the programme compared with information alone. However, many carers do not complete a correspondence programme and this may limit its impact.

Q: How to add a date and time to a PostgreSQL database with EF? I have a data model, with the help of EF migration I created a data table based on this model.
public class Event
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Theme { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    public string Description { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    public string Place { get; set; } = string.Empty;
}

After that, I remembered that I forgot to add the date and time field. I added this field and created a new migration, after which I applied the update database command.
public class Event
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Theme { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    public string Description { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    public DateTime EventTime { get; set; }
    public string Place { get; set; } = string.Empty;
}

When executing my request to update the date and time via the Web Api, I get the following error:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbUpdateException: An error occurred while saving the entity changes. See the inner exception for details. ---> System.InvalidCastException: Cannot write DateTime with Kind=Unspecified to PostgreSQL type 'timestamp with time zone', only UTC is supported. Note that it's not possible to mix DateTimes with different Kinds in an array/range. See the Npgsql.EnableLegacyTimestampBehavior AppContext switch to enable legacy behavior.

When executing my request to update the date and time via the Web Api, I get the following error. Before adding the date and time field, everything worked fine, with MSSQL everything also works fine and the date is added well.

A:
Cannot write DateTime with Kind=Unspecified to PostgreSQL type 'timestamp with time zone', only UTC is supported

That means you need to convert your EventTime to UTC


9 different Matt(e)s...more than one for every day of the week- boy do i feel spoilt for choice!
I purchased this palette after christmas whilst stalking Hudabeauty's youtube...it was a long christmas break in single-town..ok?!!
I was mainly interested in one colour and that was Matt Abdul as it looked unique from many greys that i own- it has a mauve tinge to it which i think really suits brunettes such as myself.
The pigmentation of this palette is unreal- just goes to show how helpful reviews and vidoes are..as to be honest if id seen this palette in a shop i'd most probably walk past it. It doesnt have the wow factor for me looks wise. That's not to say the packaging isn't eye catching- i just tend to be drawn to more shimmery eye shadows....magpie!!
The colours are far more exciting and impressive when swatched and as my first product by The Balm company- i have to say I'm impressed and will keep my eye out for more goodies from them.
My three favourites...L to R- Singh, Abdul and Hung.
Have you tried any products from The Balm that you can recommend?
This palette looks lovely! I don't have many matte palettes so this would be a perfect addition to my make up collection!

Welling Play-Off Semi-Final at 3pm on Sunday
Cardinal Sin
Having put an impressive second-half of the season together with a small squad of first teamers, the Wings finished in third place in National League South and face Chelmsford Town at Park View Road at 3pm on Sunday in their play-off semi-final. They beat Chelmsford comfortably enough in their league fixture at Park view Road a couple of weeks ago so will be confident of securing a place in the play-off final. If you have a spare afternoon why not get over there and support the Wings. They play good attacking football and have been scoring plenty of goals in the run-in (entrance £12).

Its a shame that Chelsmford have had a bye through to the Semi-Finals as Welling should have had the advantage of playing a game less
To be honest I dont even get why there are Ground issues to go from the National League North / South to the National League (like what Concord Rangers have suffered) - Surely its all under the one body so the ground rules should be across all three Leagues, surely it should change so your either not allowed to go up into the Football League or you just shouldnt be allowed into the National League Regional Level in the first place

The National Leauge South play off format has had to be amended. As playoff will not include Concord (finished 6th), who's ground does not allow them into the National Leauge as it does not have 500 covered seats,
Weds 1st May Bath v Wealdstone
Sunday 5th Woking v winner of the above
Sunday 5th Welling v Chelmsford
Sunday 12th May Final with winners from above.
Highest place team has home advantage in Final.

It's a nonsense really, especially as the rules then don't allow the next team down to go into the playoffs instead.

All a bit silly.
Can't get promoted as they don't have 500 covered seats.
Their average crowd this season...............404.
At the very least (if they did get promoted) they should be allowed a 1 year grace period. I've read that Concord even said they could get it sorted over this summer, but the league said no.

I'm a little surprised as thought this was the case... e.g. in 2016/17 (the last year of the the four team Play-Offs), there were teams who finished outside the placings in both North and South yet involved because teams above them didnt have the ground requirements
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016%E2%80%9317_National_League#League_table_2
In my opinion it made it a bit of a joke i.e. where do you draw the line in terms of entering the next team down (i.e. Hampton finished two places outside the Play-Offs that year but were allowed in)

a football league body not showing common sense there is a 1st - tossers
Why do the seats have to be covered in the first place... Or is the issue just seats in general?
stackitsteve
Exactly this. 1 year period is ideal but if they can get it done over the summer what's the issue?
doubt they are eager to pay for the work if they don't get promoted, what's wrong with waiting and seeing what happens in the playoffs.
stackitsteve said:
All clubs know the criteria that's required in order to gain promotion up the ladder.
I believe there is a time scale for work to be carried out during the season for the following season. Surely if a club has an ambition to progress and they are near the top then they should make sure that they can get the work done in time or be disappointed.

Still find it remarkable Brentford are allowed Terrace in the championship

This is one of the problems for many non-league clubs.
To meet requirements clubs have to build random covered terrace stands, no bigger than a bus shelter at times. This could cost 5K upwards, and these clubs are getting double figure gates.
CAFCTrev
Colchester were in the championship from 2006-08 at their old Layer Road ground.
MartinCAFC
Brentford are building a new ground so they've probably been excused from having to do up Griffin Park which needs a complete overhaul.
Most likely some fat guy in a suit made the figure up at a lunch meeting.
Beats me why a club who don't even get crowds of 500 have to have 500 covered seats or they can't go up.
Anyway, Concord's seating capacity aside, it would be great to see a few hundred Charlton fans supporting the Wings for the day. They really do play good football and it should be a cracking match with Chelmsford likely to bring several hundred as they did in the league fixture.

Gutted I'm away this weekend mate, would have been there.
Still, am free on the 12th when we're in the final.
See you there Russ - enjoy your weekend away.

Welling won 3-2 in their playoff semi-final and go on to play Woking (at Woking) in the final. Congratulations and good luck to our favourite local non-league team. Shame the Charlton faithful can't get there due to a certain important match taking place in Doncaster the same day!
Is John Bartley still banging them in at PVR?
meldrew66 said:
Some of the Charlton faithful will be at Woking.....The goal-scorers at Welling these days are the whole team but spear-headed by big Danny Mills and little Bradley Goldberg. Cracking match yesterday with a good atmosphere and a dramatic finish which sent the home fans away happy.
Good turn out yesterday crowd was 1912 congratulations to Welling.
Probably 600 Chelmsford there...
Robbo on the wing
Going to watch the away game to Doncaster in the sports pub in the corner of Waterloo Station, then jump on a train to Woking (20 mins).

40 Years Ago: Triumph Release Their Debut Album
Eduardo Rivadavia Published: October 13, 2016
If you were to ask most Triumph fans -- even self-professed die-hards -- living in the pre-internet era to name the Canadian power trio's debut album, they'd probably tell you it was 1978's Rock & Roll Machine. They'd be wrong ...
An obscure, self-titled LP had been released solely in Triumph's homeland back in 1976, through the local Attic Records; and it was only after import copies started trickling across the border -- soon followed by the original version of the band's second album, Rock & Roll Machine -- that Triumph landed an international deal with RCA in the States.
The label combined four songs each from the two Canadian pressings into the Rock & Roll Machine that was more readily available to fans around the world. It was even repackaged with cover art depicting stylized Flying Vs instead of the computerized rendering of singer and guitarist Rik Emmett, bassist and keyboardist Mike Levine and singer and drummer Gil Moore seen on the domestic version.
But what about that modest, overlooked first album in its original form? When Triumph's discography was reissued on CD, the album was given a new title, In the Beginning, and new cover art depicting a Spinal Tap-like Stonehenge-sized monolith that looked just as cheap as the original's unflattering portrait of the band.
In any case, the music was rather astutely summarized by writer Martin Popoff in the first volume of The Collector's Guide to Heavy Metal -- The Seventies as getting "lost in the headlights between party metal and epic metal."
This was certainly illustrated by the album's first number, "24 Hours a Day" (the party), and its last, "Blinding Light Show / Moonchild" (the epic), both of which were familiar to fans who owned the international pressing.
So was the two-part "Street Fighter" suite (the first part was speed metal-fast; the second was deliberate and dreamy), but not the rest, including the muscular blues-rock of "Be My Lover" and "Don't Take My Life," the BTO-esque "What's Another Day of Rock 'n Roll," the meandering "Easy Life" and the white-knuckled rocker "Let Me Get Next to You."
These songs set the fundamental blueprint, even if crudely, for most of Triumph's future albums. You can even argue that the band applied new layers of polish and finesse to these raw essentials until the hits and platinum sales started coming its way.
But loyal Triumph fans know otherwise, appreciating the gradual evolution of their sound as they successfully navigated the seismic changes -- in consumer tastes, industry processes, etc. -- that rocked the '70s' transition into the '80s, and survived longer and stronger than countless groups of the era.
Their efforts to build upon that modest and often forgotten first album taught them quite a bit about persistence and belief in themselves for the challenges, and eventual triumphs, that lay ahead.

Lost In Space's New Trailer Has Robot Feels And Spaceship Ships
Whether it's a sea of stars or a sea of water, a ship's a ship, right? (Image: Netflix)
And yes, there's still danger—although it's not just Will Robinson that needs warning about it.
Netflix just dropped the full trailer for Lost in Space's sophomore season, and while the Robinsons are just about still standing after the wild events of season one, it seems like they're in for a bunch of new problems. Mainly problems like "Where the hell is our robot?" and, more immediately worrisome, "Can we turn our space-ship into a ship-ship before it plummets off of the edge of a waterfall?"
They might succeed in the latter, judging by this trailer, but as for the former, it seems like the hunt for Robot after it got separated from Will and the gang last season will be a major drive for season two, as the Robinsons and the rest of the remaining colonists attempt to get back to their fellow humans on the Resolute and continue their mission.
Too bad it seems like said mission is going to be impeded by some decidedly less-pleasant robots than, well, Robot! Poor guys can't catch a break. At least Parker Posey still seems like she's having a great old time on this show.
Lost in Space returns for round two on Netflix December 24.
We asked the Lost in Space cast who would be most likely to stage a mutiny in real life and well, @TobyStephensInV ???? pic.twitter.com/e14gOrbtYZ
