More records broken in the league
Record crowd watches a Scottish Cup tie at Meadowside
Top 5 league finish
View season's statistics.
Since winning promotion from the Second Division in 1902 Partick Thistle had consistently been improving their league positions in the top league, from 8th in 1903, to 7th in 1904 and then 6th in 1905 (which had been their highest finish since the league began). Could more improvements be made in 1905-06?
It would be a difficult proposition. Resources were limited at Meadowside and new players couldn't be obtained as quickly as some clubs. Celtic and Rangers already had a huge advantage over other clubs with the big crowds they attracted, while in Edinburgh Hearts and Hibs also pulled big crowds. Closer to home Third Lanark were Glasgow's third team based on their performances over the past few years.
The Evening Times, however, saw potential alongside improvements at Meadowside and felt that this could be the season when Thistle became one of the top teams in Scotland.
The season previewed
"The Partick Thistle team will not differ very much from last season, and the executive are looking forward to again taking a prominent place in Scottish football. Last season the Thistle may be said to have entered a new era, and never in the history of the club has such distinction been achieved. After struggling for years as second-raters the Thistle has worthily earned a position among the half-dozen first-class clubs in Scotland, and it will not be the fault of the present management if this high standard is not maintained.
In addition to their successful cup tie career they had quite a phenomenal run of victories in the Scottish League, extending over two months, which exercised ambitious dreams in the Meadowside camp. But it was not to be. The team seemed to lose heart when defeat called, and their ultimate total of 26 points was not as good as their earlier form presaged.
In the Charity ties the team again recovered , and their decisive victory over the Rangers in the opening round will not readily be forgotten down Partick way. This they endorsed by their ultimate victory over Third Lanark, but the strain was too much, and they fell to the Celtic in the final, the same club having blighted the hopes of the Thistle in the Scottish and Glasgow Cup ties. All round had Partick's rise to power with satisfaction.
It is good for Glasgow that her clubs should be of as equal standard as possible, and the Thistle management are determined to make the old club a power in present-day football and worthy of the large constituency from which they derive their support. That the public will respond is evidenced by the sum drawn when the Hibernians opposed the Thistle in their undecided Scottish tie on 4th February last, the figures, which constitute a record for Meadowside being – Gate £379; stand £36.
Coming to the team, it may at once be said that there will not be many changes. All the desirable players of last season have been retained, and only two new men have been signed on during the close season, these being Swan, late of Tottenham Hotspur and St Mirren, and Brown, a junior from Newmilns. Towards the end of last season the want of a reserve back was severley felt, and, in addition to Harvey and Gilchrist, McKenzie has been signed. McKenzie hails from Bo'ness and on trial gave entire satisfaction. No change is made in the half-back division, which proved the backbone of the team last year. With regard to the forwards, it is here a little planning and fixing will have to be done. Swan, who comes with good credentials, has a local connection, having played as a junior in Partick. He is available for either inside positions or centre. The left wing forwards are in the majority, but such as R.Gray can easily adapt himself to another position, and, in addition, the club has one of those handy players in W.Gray, who can substitute a half-back or a forward, as was seen last season.
The following is the list of professionals signed on up to date:- Goal – Howden; backs – Harvey, Gilchrist and McKenzie (Bo'ness); half-backs – Gibson, Melville, Walker, Harry Wilson, and W.Gray; forwards – Sommen, Kennedy, R.Gray, Lawrie (Clydebank Juniors), McGregor (Crieff), Swan (Tottenham), and Brown (Newmilns). The Thistle will also have the assistance of W.W.Tennant, the popular amateur, who can adapt himself to any position in the front line, and Carrick Hamilton, late of Queen's Park, also an amateur, who will be early be seen at outside left. The departures from Meadowside are:- J.Wilkie, to Hibernians, and Massey, to Port Glasgow Athletic, while T.Wilkie, goalkeeper, and A.Wilson, back, have retired.
Training started on 25th ult., the players being again under the care of John Nutt. The ground is in beautiful order, the playing pitch having received special attention. Everything considered, the Thistle are well equipped for the work before them, and with such a popular chairman of directors as Mr W.Ward and capable manager as Mr Easton, assisted by an enthusiastic directorate, this season bids fair to eclipse the doings of last. The opening match is with St Mirren at Meadowside on the 15th, and on Saturday the 19th the Thistle commence their League matches by playing Aberdeen (away)."
New kit for 1905-06
No sooner had the Times printed their preview than it was out of date. William Tennent, who had played the previous season as an amateur, moved to Queen's Park. George Gilchrist was suspended for a month after he played in three Charity Cup matches at the end of the previous season without being a registered player, and his absence allowed Archie McKenzie, newly signed from Bo'ness after a few matches on trial the previous season, to begin developing a full back partnership with Tom Harvey. Early suggestions in the press suggested Thistle might be stronger than the previous season.
Bob Campbell, who had moved to Ibrox half-way through the previous season, had joined Millwall.
George Easton had been appointed as the club's first manager by President Wilton, but the position wasn't yet one that selected the team. Rather Easton managed the club on a day-to-day basis. One of his changes was a new strip. The black and gold stripes had been replaced by a claret-coloured jersey with pale blue sleeves and collar, similar to the one worn by Aston Villa.
The season begins
Aberdeen had been elected to the division, having been formed in 1903 as a result of the amalgamation of three clubs from the city, and for their first First Division match they welcomed Thistle to Pittodrie. Hopes were high and there was great excitement in Aberdeen for the game. 7000 spectators watched the game and were frustrated as Harvey and McKenzie frustrated every home attack. Sam Kennedy was in good form and he scored the only goal of the game with a powerful 30 yard shot.
Thistle were known for helping good causes, often playing benefit matches for individuals and charities, and early in the season they welcomed Port Glasgow Athletic to Meadowside for a fundraising match for the St Vincent (Sandyford) Masonic Lodge, and then Queen's Park to play a match to benefit local amateur team Rockbank.
The next league game was to begin a pattern in games that was to frustrate players and fans alike. Thistle dominated the first half against Third Lanark. The forwards, with a good close passing and dribbling game, simply walked around the 3rds defenders as if they weren't there. The Daily Record commented that "If Partick Thistle keep up that form very few teams will be able to beat them". However, Thistle couldn't take their chances and the visitors won the game 2-1. Carrick Hamilton was the outstanding forward on the field and he scored Thistle's goal.
After a 2-0 win in the first home match, against Falkirk, Thistle travelled to Dundee. Sam Kennedy was quoted before the game as saying "Dundee had a better team last year than they have this year, and we beat them with a team which is inferior to the eleven we have this year." Sam predicted a Thistle win but the game was perhaps more difficult than anticipated and the game ended 1-1 after James Sommen scored. Dundee were a bit unlucky, having a player sent off, unfairly suggested the newspaper reports, and a goal disallowed incorrectly for offside. Sam Kennedy believed the Dundee goal should have stood: "All the same, we threw away the game after having run them so hard in the opening stages of the game." The Thistle defence caught the eye, with backs and half backs working well together rather than as separate units.
In the Glasgow Cup Celtic had often been the obstacle Thistle couldn't get over, and with recent form there was hope that, this time, Thistle would beat their rivals and have a good Glasgow Cup run. "The Thistle might for once get a glimpse of the turn in the long lane in which they have been so hopelessly travelling during the past few years."
On the contrary, with the worst performance of the season so far, Thistle never came close to matching Celtic, and could do little right, losing 0-4. According to Willie Howden "it was the worst game we have ever played". President William Ward reckoned the score could have been double figures if it hadn't been for Howden's performance. "Our boys have gone a bit off colour just now but we'll come again, of that there is no doubt," reckoned Ward after the game.
Tinkering with the team
Ward and the directors' response was to make changes in the team, trying to find a consistent lineup. George Gilchrist replaced Archie McKenzie at left back, while Neil Gibson returned after injury, and a 1-0 win was recorded over Hibs, but changes were again made against Morton as the forwards' performances still weren't satisfactory. Adam McCall and David Walker had been playing well for the reserves (as had Gilchrist), and they were promoted to the first team. Andy Swan replaced Kennedy at centre forward. It was a rest for Sam (the most travelled player in the league). – he lived in Girvan and travelled 62 miles by train each way to get the Glasgow every week. Both Swan and McCall scored in a narrow 2-1 win. "We were lucky to win for in the second half the Morton played a really good game; in fact my fingers have not been kept so warm for some time," explained Willie Howden after the game. Howden had been in great form since the start of the season.
Further changes were made for the visit to Tynecastle to play the league leaders. Neil Gibson was moved to outside right, an unusual position for a player approaching the veteran stage. Sam Kennedy came back in at centre forward. Willie Howden gave his thoughts before the game. "If our forwards play as they did at the beginning of the season we can give the Hearts a good game. If we can beat [Charlie] Thomson, who, in my opinion, is the greatest half-back in Scotland, we will beat Hearts." It was a tough ask. Hearts were on a four game winning run, while Thistle had been (at best) inconsistent. It was no real surprise that Hearts won 2-0.
The Daily Record was concerned about the form of the team. "This time last year Partick Thistle went on a good run. However, there's no sign of that happening this year. The backs are playing well and have lost just eight goals in eight games. Forward problems bulk largely down Meadowside way."
On the contrary, though, Thistle did post a series of better results between the Hearts game and the first game of 1906. 6 wins, 2 draws and a single defeat (to Celtic again). "The Thistle have seldom done well against Celtic in the League so that they take their annual whacking philosophically," reported Athletic News.

Front row: James Sommen, Harry Wilson, Sam Kennedy, Tom Harvey, David Walker, Robert Gray.
The performances, however, were unremarkable. While the defence had lost the fewest goals in the league so far (apart from leaders Celtic and Hearts) they had also scored the fewest (apart from Hibs). What was missing was a centre forward "capable of uniting the forwards and seizing opportunities at goal" according to the Daily Record.
Although disappointed with the players' form, Thistle had been comfortably in the top half of the table since the start of the season.
Despite the league position, crowds were suffering. The game against Celtic was the first big pay-day for the club, after the Rangers home game had been postponed in September. The attendance at the home game against Motherwell was affected by a high-profile wrestling match at Ibrox between Hackenschmidt of Estonia and Scottish champion Alexander Munro which was co-promoted by Rangers, who were playing away at Falkirk. Thistle were unhappy and proposed a new SFA rule which prohibited other clubs from promoting or supporting events which affected other club's home attendances.
At Easter Road Tom Harvey was badly injured early in the game which forced Thistle to play the defensive one-back game, content with stopping Hibs from scoring to the detriment of any creative play. Harry Rennie of Hibs commented after the game "We had a regular old-fashioned game against Partick. There was plenty of good, long, high, and accurate kicking; in fact, the game at one period was a regular pitched battle between the backs." The game ended 1-1 with Bobby Gray grabbing a goal for Thistle.
The following week against Airdrie Harvey was replaced by John Lyon, who had been playing well for the reserves. It was another disappointing performance by the forwards but a Willie Gray goal and a great performance from Willie Howden won both points for Thistle. Post-match, Howden was delighted: "I will not say that we deserved to win on Saturday, but we won. In the first half Partick Thistle easily held the upper hand, and during that period Bobby Gray was the outstanding man. His placing was a treat. He fed the inside men like a book. I think a lot of Lyon, but Gilchrist is the steadiest of the lot. Airdrie, to my mind, were shooting from too great a distance. I had always plenty of time to get to the shots. If the Airdrie forwards had come a little nearer they might have scored. "
The reserve team had been earning lots of credit for their performances in the first part of the season, and several players had been promoted to fill in for first team injuries and losses of form. Towards the end of the year they had reached the Scottish Second XI Cup Final, having beaten Third Lanark, Rangers and Clyde earlier in the competition. Hearts were the opposition in the final and they won the ballot for home advantage. At Tynecastle Thistle lined up Duncan, Lyon, Mackenzie, W.Wilson, Walley, Allan, Lawrie, W.Gray, McAllister, Brown, McGregor, and despite not having conceded a goal in the earlier rounds, collapsed to a 0-4 defeat.
A few weeks later the reserves travelled to play Berwick Rangers at Union Park in Tweedmouth. The train they were on didn't stop at Berwick station which meant to get of people had to gather in the last carriage which was decoupled from the main train and guided into the station on its own. Four of the Thistle players were on the wrong carriage and so were unable to get off the train. Four local players were brought in and the Thistle team won 3-1.
The good run ends
The first team's good run hit an obstacle with a visit to Ibrox in early January. Thistle's defence coped well with the Rangers forwards for most of the game, and Thistle looked more likely to score as the game went on, but Rangers scored with a goal in the last minute. The Daily Record's summary was one that had been heard numerous times in the previous months:
"Partick Thistle, although losing, are a very fine team behind, but an improvement is badly needed forward if goals are to be got. Of the lot, Kennedy and R.Gray were best, but Sommen, while he did remarkably well in the outfield, lost many opportunities by frittering on the run instead of swinging the ball across."
At Parkhead Thistle conceded three goals in the first ten minutes. Things were even for the remainder of the game, but it was a lost cause.

It had been seven years Thistle were drawn at home in the first round of the Scottish Cup (Irvine in 1899) so it was no surprise when the draw required Thistle to travel again.
Thistle were paired with Leith FC, and the home team quickly expanded the terracing capacity of their Logie Green ground to accommodate the expected big crowd – upto 3000 Thistle fans were rumoured to be ready to travel through. The pitch, however, was much smaller than Thistle were used to. Leith were at the top of the Second Division and were current holders of the Qualifying Cup, and Thistle found the tie difficult. Indeed Leith might have deserved a draw but Thistle were just the better team, and won 1-0. The Edinburgh Evening News were disappointed in some of the pragmatic tactics adopted by the visitors of keeping the ball away from their goal by kicking it off the pitch: "Partick Thistle just about strained the patience of the referee in kicking out, but unfortunately the trick is too well known and indulged in, so that however objectionable was this feature of the visitors' play, the possibility if the positions were reversed the same order of things would have prevailed."
The second round saw another away draw – it had been five years since Thistle had been first out of the draw in any round of the cup. This time it was another journey to the capital, to play Hibs.
First, though, was a home league game against Hearts. The visitors were second in the league, the only team who could realistically catch Celtic at the top of the division. Carrick Hamilton returned to the side for his first game in a month, wearing a bandage to protect the wrist he broke against Motherwell on New Year's Day. Thistle adapted the poor pitch conditions by playing a running and long passing game rather than using short passes, and won the game comfortably 4-1. The Scottish Weekly Record reported that Sam Kennedy had scored twice and restored himself as a favourite, having been in danger of being dropped. This seems unfair on Sam who had also scored in the last four games.
That result brought some doubt to the Edinburgh Evening News who had been ready to dismiss Thistle's chances of beating Hibs.
"Partick Thistle are little better than second raters. For weeks together at the beginning of the year their best performance was to scrape through at home to Kilmarnock, yet there is dubiety at Easter Road as to the prospect of the Hibernians with home advantage pulling through, and all because of a Heart of Midlothian "rout" at Partick last Saturday. Partick Thistle possess a good and oft-times lucky defence, their goalkeeper combining pluck with ability. Otherwise they do not possess many claims to the first-class. Their best qualification is ability to go ahead and upset better teams by bustling tactics. It remains to be seen whether a better playing team in the Hibernians will allow themselves to beaten by these tactics."
There was clearly an element of parochiality in play from the Edinburgh paper, as Thistle were four places and nine points ahead of Hibs in the League at the time. The previous year the two teams had met in the Cup, and Thistle eventually won through after a replay.
This year's game also ended in a draw, Sam Kennedy scoring in a 1-1 draw, although both teams had plenty of chances to score more. Willie Howden and George Gilchrist were the pick of the Thistle players as the Evening News again accused Thistle of time wasting.
The same 22 players played the replay at Meadowside the following week. Harry Rennie of Hibs was the busier goalie but Thistle could only manage a single goal again, from James Sommen, who was Thistle's best forward, contributing tricky runs and accurate crosses as well as his goal. It was a bit of a rough game, and some players were lucky to escape punishment. Thistle should have won, but Hibs equalised with just five minutes left to take the game to a second replay.
It had been a bumper crowd at Meadowside, and at Easter Road in the first game. In fact, the 20,000 crowd was the biggest attendance recorded at Meadowside, and also established a new record for gate takings – £483: previously it had been £415 v Hibs in the cup game the previous year.
The draws had been lucrative for the clubs' bank managers. £731 had been shared over the first two games and it seemed likely that figure would rise to £1000 after the second replay. Hibs had offered Thistle half of the gate to play the game at Easter Road but Thistle refused. Hibs then offered half of the gate if the game could be played at Tynecastle, but Thistle didn't want to play in Edinburgh again. Eventually the clubs agreed to play the replay at Ibrox and share the gate, hoping for a big Glasgow crowd. However, the game was up against the top League game of the day – Celtic v Hearts.
Bobby Gray
It was a game of penalties. Hibs scored one while Thistle missed two. Bobby Gray scored one goal but Hibs scored two, and Thistle were out of the Scottish Cup. The crowd was a disappointing 10,000 compared to 50,000 at Celtic Park.
Cup hopes were ended but there was still plenty to play for in the league. With seven games to play Thistle already had won more points than ever before. Games had been postponed for the Cup, allowing others to pull ahead, but Thistle still had aspirations to finish second in the league, behind Celtic who were well ahead of everybody else. It was a tough objective, and perhaps unrealistic. Hearts were in second and twelve points ahead with three games to play. Thistle still had seven games to play (six at home) so would need to win every game and hope that Hearts didn't pick up wins.
The first game as won 1-0, an unremarkable win over Dundee. Thistle centre half David Melville and Dundee centre forward David Cowie had both been cautioned in the first half, and Melville was ordered off the pitch to receive treatment. In the second half Melville was sent off after an incident when Cowie's nose was broken. Melville was suspended for a month – virtually all of the remaining league games.
The dream of second place ended abruptly the following week when Aberdeen won 2-1 at Meadowside. Aberdeen were in good form, having beaten Celtic the week before, but nonetheless were below Thistle in the table. Aberdeen goalie McFarlane performed heroics to keep his team in the game in one of the best matches seen at Meadowside all season.
Willie Howden
There were still five league games to play, and the target of finishing in the highest league position to date was still realistic. Wins over Morton and Port Glasgow, and draws with Rangers and St Mirren lifted them to 5th position before last game of season. The draw with Rangers was the first point Thistle had taken from their neighbours in the League since the first game in 1897 (and the goals scored leaned heavily towards Rangers too – 11 for Thistle to 60). Willie Howden was injured against St Mirren but struggled on to play in the remaining league games.
A win in the last game, at Love Street, would have lifted the club to 3rd place, and Andy Swan gave Thistle an early lead. However St Mirren came back and won 2-1 after Willie Gray was forced to see out the second half injured.
Thistle ended the league season in 5th place and with the highest points total recorded by a Thistle team too. Willie Howden must have had a call to be the player of the year, having been responsible for the team taking points in several matches, although young John Lyon, who replaced the injured Tom Harvey in December and didn't miss a game after that, would have run him close. The young full back was firmly a favourite with the Meadowside fans.

The Glasgow League organisers had decided to experiment with midweek games rather than relying on finding free Saturday's which had proved problematic in previous seasons, as the tournament was low on clubs' priorities. The number of games had been reduced too, to just one game against each team, rather than one game at home and one away. Unfortunately, the first Thistle match (against Celtic in March) was postponed due to a frosty pitch, while the second (home to Clyde) was abandoned after it started late in front of a poor crowd. The midweek football experiment, as witnessed by other clubs too, wasn't immediately successful.
Crowds were unimpressive – takings from the Thistle v Clyde game amounted to just £13. Unsurprisingly the competition didn't take place the following season. Performances, too, were poor as trialists were given the opportunity to impress and earn contracts for the following season. Anderson Tennent, who had been playing as an amateur for Queen's Park, guested for Thistle against Third Lanark and scored, earning him a place in the Thistle team for the next few seasons.

The biggest crowd ever witnessed in Scotland, 102,741, was recorded at Hampden in April, for the Scotland v England international. With no game, the Thistle players attended the game as spectators, and watched Scotland win 2-1. Liverpool's Alex Raisbeck was man of the match, regarded as the best in Britain. Little would Willie Howden, Archie McKenzie and Sam Kennedy have realised that the big centre half would be their team mate at Thistle in a few years' time.

Earlier in the season Thistle had been in demand to take part in benefit matches, and at the tail end it was the same. Thistle and Queen's Park were approached to play a benefit match for West of Scotland Cricket Club, while George Gilchrist and Sam Kennedy played for a First Division team against a Second Division one in a benefit match for W.McMillan, the goalkeeper of Arthurlie, who died after an accident playing for Arthurlie v Leith in April.
David Melville was chosen to represent Glasgow against Sheffield in the annual fixture, played this year at Meadowside. The team comprised four Celtic players, three Third Lanark, and one each from Clyde, Queen's Park, Rangers and Thistle. Glasgow won 1-0.
Despite the criticism of the pitch (it was often muddy and unplayable) and it's location on the banks of the river Clyde (games were affected by sea fog) Thistle PT renewed the annual lease for Meadowside with the River Clyde Trustees for another year.

Foxconn ex-manager jailed for stealing 2,000 iPhones
Fri, Sep 28, 2018 - 8:45 PM
Foxconn, also known as Hon Hai, is the world's largest contract electronics maker and assembles products for international brands such as Apple and Sony.
[TAIPEI] A former manager at Taiwan's technology giant Foxconn has been jailed for stealing and selling 2,000 iPhones to pocket around Tw$8.46 million (S$378,953), a court said Friday.
It employs about one million workers at its factories across China.
Tsai Yi-wei, who worked in the company's testing department, had instructed eight employees at Foxconn's factory in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen to smuggle out iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s test models between July 2013 and December 2014, the high court said.
Tsai and his accomplices then sold the phones, which were supposed to be scrapped, to stores in Shenzhen.
He was sentenced to two years and four months in prison on Thursday and can appeal the ruling.
"The defendant was the head of a department but violated the company's trust," the court said in a statement.
Foxconn reported the case to Taiwanese authorities following an internal audit and Tsai was indicted in late 2016.
The firm has been hit by a number of scandals in recent years, from employee misconduct to labour disputes.
In 2016, five former Foxconn employees were given up to 10 years and six months in prison for soliciting Tw$160 million in kickbacks from suppliers in exchange for clearing quality checks and buying their equipment.
The company had also come under the spotlight over labour unrest, from employee suicides to the use of underage interns at its Chinese plants several years ago.

Celebrities' beauty budgets aren't exactly on our level. This summer, Kylie Jenner was reported to have dropped $1200 on a casual trip to Sephora. This spring, Gwyneth Paltrow's daily skincare bill was found to cost to $737. We'll give you a second to process.
Understandably, we get pretty excited when we find out that a celebrity's favorite products are actually affordable. Recently, we discovered that Selena Gomez in particular has more budget-friendly essentials than the average celebrity—in fact, a substantial percentage of her favorite skincare, makeup, and hair products can be found at Ulta for $30 or less.
If all it takes to reach Gomez's goddess level is a $30 trip to Ulta, we knew we had to alert the public. So, we rounded up the following list of products that Gomez not only recommends but personally uses on the reg. Keep scrolling to find nine amazing products Selena Gomez would snag at Ulta!
Gomez is an Olay fanatic, a trait she inherited from her glowy-skinned mother and grandmother. As she explained to Into the Gloss, "My nanna is … in her late 50s now, [and] she's taken care of her skin for as long as I can remember." Gomez recalls her nanna washing her face with Oil of Olay and moisturizing every night before bed. "When my mom hit about 21, my nanna started giving her old Olay products, sort of like hand-me-downs," Gomez said. "Even when my mom tries new things, she always goes back to Olay.
And it must work because my mom has the most incredible, beautiful skin."
Most drugstore shaving creams are packed with harsh chemicals and offer formulas that neither protect your skin from razor burn nor allow you to get the closest shave. Selena's go-to shave product is still affordable, but its natural formula and silky texture make it a standout.
"I'll shave with the Eos Moisturizing Shave Cream, which is nice because it isn't too thick," she told Into the Gloss. This cream is infused with natural conditioning oils. It's also non-foaming, so you can shave wet or dry, and comes in dreamy scents like vanilla and lavender-jasmine.
Banish stress the Selena Gomez way with this $20 spa in a bottle. "In my room, I always have fresh flowers and essential oils—I'll have lavender or lemongrass, it just depends on what we feel for that day," she told InStyle. "But I love to keep everything calm." Try this lavender massage oil to unwind after a long, stressful day.
These tried-and-true pore strips are another of Gomez's affordable skincare essentials. "[These] make me feel really accomplished when I do them... plus they work!" she told Yahoo Beauty.
Gomez's Revival Tour makeup artist, Melissa Murdick, shared a mini-tutorial on Instagram, demonstrating how to achieve the singer's '60s-inspired eye makeup look. A shimmery, copper lid is key. "Use a medium copper eye shadow on the lid and into the crease of the eye in an elongated shape," Murdick says. "To add more definition, use a slightly deeper shadow on the outer corner and in the crease."
According to Allure, Burt's Bees is Gomez's favorite drugstore brand. At the 2016 Oscars, her makeup artist Hung Vanngo used the brand's BB cream and lipstick in Tulip Tide ($9) to achieve a glowy, feminine look.
Selena Gomez's lashes are less like the eyelashes of mortal humans and more like the dark, voluminous fringe of a superior species. Even if you aren't so blessed (hi, us!), you can get pretty close by layering this Gomez-approved mascara. "It's absolutely amazing," she told Seventeen Magazine. "It doesn't run, at all. And it's waterproof and it stays on. I love it."
You'll have to step into a brick-and-mortar Ulta to get your hands on Gomez's ride-or-die hairspray (which is no longer available online). But it'll be worth the trip. On tour, Gomez relies on Pantene's Airspray Hairspray ($5)—also available at Target.com—to lock her curls in place.
"I would say we go through about a quarter of a bottle [every show] because I'm spraying it before, after, and throughout," Gomez told InStyle.
To achieve her long-lasting curls, Selena preps the hair by spraying this stuff all over. Then, she applies the product to each section of hair as she curls. When the style is complete, she hits it with one last coat for the ultimate hold.
Want a visual? Head over to Byrdie's Facebook to see Gomez's on-tour hair stylist recreate her exact waves in a live video tutorial.
Gomez owes her thick, glossy hair to masks like this one from AG, which she applies to her ends and leaves on overnight. "[My hair] goes through a lot every day, but I try to keep it healthy," she said in a Vogue interview. "I have to admit, it can get a little dead on the ends. I like to leave conditioner on overnight sometimes—I'll wrap it up and let it sit." This AG mask is packed with shea butter, keratin amino acids, and silk proteins to soften and heal damaged strands.

The Packers have activated running back Aaron Jones from the suspended list and waived cornerback Deante Burton, the club announced today.
Jones, 23, was handed a two-game ban for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy after an October 2017 arrest. A fifth-round pick in last year's draft, Jones was excellent during his rookie campaign, averaging 5.5 yards per carry on 88 attempts. Among running backs with fewer than 100 carries, Jones finished first in DYAR (a representation of his value over a replacement level player) and second in DVOA (meaning he was effective on a per-play basis), per Football Outsiders.
Jones isn't coming back to Green Bay as a starter despite his production a season ago. After Jones missed the tail end of the 2017 campaign with an MCL injury, fellow rookie Jamaal Williams took over as the Packers' workhorse. In total, Williams handled 153 carries an averaged 3.6 yard per carry last year, and has shouldered the load through Green Bay's first two games this season. With Ty Montgomery also in tow, Jones will be eased back into the club's offensive gameplan.
Burton played receiver at Kansas State but converted to cornerback upon being signed as a Falcons undrafted free agent in 2017. He played in one game for Atlanta this year before being cut.


In memory of the Six Million defiled by the Nazis, this sacred Torah (MST#278) was rescued from the rubble of a small synagogue in an unknown town of Czechoslovakia. It is displayed at Temple Sholom with reverence, as a memorial to the Six Million, and as a remembrance of the thousands of Torahs, holy books and religious objects which were destroyed.
Significantly, this Torah is opened to the Book of Exodus, the passage of the Ten Commandments.
We are grateful to Linda and Edmund Baulsir for retrieving this Torah from the Westminster Synagogue in London. It is on Permanent Loan from the Memorial Scrolls Trust, through which these scrolls take a message of hope, continuity and resilience to every corner of the globe.

7 Trans Memoirs That Inspire, Impress, and Encourage
These coming-of-acceptance stories need to be at the top of your list.
By DeAnna Janes | Updated Jul 8, 2020 | Published Oct 7, 2015
Be it the big screen, television, or the pages of a memoir, the transgender community is taking center stage. And their stories are worthy of a standing ovation. On the cusp of back-to-back banner years, the arts are providing the trans population with a platform on which to share their experiences. And though no two are alike, all of these memoirs are inspiring, impressive, and encouraging.

Some Assembly Required: The Not-So-Secret Life of a Transgender Teen
By Arin Andrews
Growing up is hard to do. It's even harder when you're trapped in the wrong body. No one knows that better than Arin Andrews, a teen who undergoes gender reassignment as a high school junior. Here, he candidly dishes on his decision to make the switch, and the hope, humility, and heartbreak that follows. At once humorous and painful, his coming-of-age story is one for the books.


The negative impact of the gender gap on health is widely acknowledged, but now it is confirmed that gender inequality can be deadly, literally! As a woman, the thought that during a heart attack, my chances of survival might be influenced by the gender of my treating doctor is a scary one indeed. The good news, though, is that small changes can result in improvements, and gender mainstreaming is apparently not only good for women, it benefits everyone.
In other news, I was happy to see the spotlight being put on nurses and midwives this week, because even though globally, we account for almost 50% of the health workforce, we are often left out of global health discussions. As someone who is acutely aware of the important role of this cadre of professionals within health systems, it was gratifying to see them being recognized as a key resource for the achievement and implementation of Alma Ata.
And finally, the heatwave has abated, at least here in Belgium, hurrah! Yet we are not out of the woods, as scientists warned this week that current efforts to mitigate climate change are not enough – they say that unless we take much better care of our planet, we risk finding ourselves in a "Hothouse Earth" state. This of course is not new information, however, the timing of the publication to coincide with the end of what has been a few weeks of unbearably hot weather should hopefully yield some results. I know I am perhaps being overly optimistic, but I have to be, because honestly the idea of living on a hothouse earth does not sound appealing to me at all. With a bit of luck the two things will convince the powers that be (as well as individuals!) to finally take climate change seriously.
On a happier note, this is the third and final edition of what I like to term my "IHP summer takeover", it really has been fun stepping into Kristof's shoes and trying to keep up the standard at the IHP headquarters.

The store is APC's third standalone space in London.
APC'S LONDON LATEST: APC has opened its third store in London, in the city's Notting Hill area.
The 700-square-foot space, which had a soft opening last month, stands at 34 Ledbury Road, nearby Diane von Furstenberg, Zadig & Voltaire and Matchesfashion.com on the street.
Laurent Deroo architects — APC's longtime collaborator — designed the store together with the Paris-based label's founder Jean Touitou.
The store's interiors make a feature of narrow, glazed gray ceramic bricks, designed to evoke London's Victorian pub tiles, which are set in pale oak frames to form walls and partitions in the store. There are also brass light-fittings and pale wood floors.
The space carries APC's men's and women's collections, alongside accessories, quilts and candles. It adds to APC's existing London stores on east London's Redchurch Street and on Lexington Street in Soho.

Niall MacGinnis (* 29. März 1913 in Dublin, Irland; † 6. Januar 1977 in Haverfordwest, Wales) war ein irischer Film- und Theaterschauspieler.

Leben
MacGinnis wuchs in der britischen Grafschaft Lancashire auf, wo er das dortige von den Jesuiten geleitete, römisch-katholische College absolvierte. Später schrieb er sich an der University of Dublin ein, an der er Medizin studierte. Abgeschlossen wurde das Studium mit dem Erlangen des Doktorgrades, was ihm im Zweiten Weltkrieg ermöglichte, in der Royal Navy zu dienen, aber gleichzeitig als Hausarzt tätig zu sein.

Schon früh zeigte sich MacGinnis' Liebe für die Schauspielerei, als er am Old Vic Theatre in London mit dem bekannten Schauspieler John Gielgud arbeitete. Turn of the Tide, 1935 produziert, bildete MacGinnis' Debüt als Filmschauspieler. MacGinnis' Theaterarbeit konzentrierte sich dabei überwiegend auf das britische Theater. Obwohl er zu Beginn der 1950er Jahre versuchte, auch in zwei Theaterstücken am Broadway, in den Vereinigten Staaten bekannt zu werden, gelang ihm dies nur mäßig.

MacGinnis' Repertoire als Filmschauspieler blieb meist auf starke Nebenrollen beschränkt. Sein erster bekannter Film war der Historienfilm Christopher Columbus aus dem Jahr 1949. 1953 stand er in Martin Luther als Reformator Martin Luther vor der Kamera – eine seiner wenigen Hauptrollen. Auch stellte der Historienfilm Jason und die Argonauten von 1963 einen Höhepunkt in der Karriere von MacGinnis dar, da er als griechischer Göttervater Zeus zu sehen war.

Niall MacGinnis stand noch bis kurz vor seinem Tod vor der Kamera. Einer seiner letzten Filme war der 1973 produzierte, und unter Regie von John Huston inszenierte Thriller The MacKintosh Man.

Als sicher gilt, dass er im Januar 1977, im Alter von 63 Jahren, an Krebs starb.

Billy Connolly: 'Don't surrender to old age'
The comedian has Parkinson's disease, but his brain is anything but 'dulled', no matter what Michael Parkinson said, and he's no longer dogged by his past, he tells Andrew Billen

Billy Connolly in Florida in his Ultimate World TourITV
It is never great when an interviewer's initial pleasantry — how are you? — constitutes the question that everybody wants answered. This is where we are, however, with Billy Connolly, who five years ago was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
Were circumstances slightly different I could easily be in the Castle Fine Art gallery in Glasgow this rainy November afternoon talking about the comedian's recently discovered talent for mysteriously funny pen-and-ink drawings. I rate them highly and they surely deserve a psychological probe (those mummified figures beside angels, kites, balloons and butterflies, as if their only aspiration is to fly away and escape).
As it is, however, I have been invited to talk to him by ITV, which will be showing Billy Connolly's Ultimate World Tour…

A tram operator and a theme park here have gotten the point.
After seeing the spreading popularity and exploitation of the "Touken Ranbu Online" game, Keifuku Electric Railroad Co. and Toei Kyoto Studio Park started a joint campaign featuring sword-based characters to bring tourists to Kyoto during the relatively quiet winter season.
"Touken Ranbu" is a browser-based online video game where players must defeat enemies using legendary swords portrayed as good-looking men. The game has become hugely popular among women, and many fans make pilgrimages across Japan to locations associated with the blades.
Keifuku Electric Railroad, which operates two tram lines collectively known as Randen, and the history movie theme park are holding a stamp-print collecting event covering four locations along the tram lines. Those who collect all four stamps can win commemorative gifts.
Keifuku Electric is also operating a tram car decorated with characters from the game, while the Toei park features special sets that recreate game scenes.
"There are many places in Kyoto that are associated with a wide variety of swords, but now that I'm here, I'd like to visit as many places as possible," said a 19-year-old vocational school student from Hamamatsu, who was visiting Arashiyama Station.
Even before the campaign started on Jan. 23, more than 4,500 sets of a ticket for one-day unlimited rides on Randen and an admission ticket to the Toei park were sold, according to the companies.
Sold for 3,500 yen ($30), including tax, the ticket set is valid until the campaign ends on March 13.

From the flat expanse of public walls, street artist Doktor Karayom ventures into the multidimentional possibilities of the gallery in Santong Pikon and fleshes out an allegorical narrative of contemporary religious experience by rendering in shape the banality of saints.
As the artist's passionate penitence, red is singularly used all throughout, its minimalistic simplicity on white evoking not only the physiological throng of bloodflow but also the horrific streak of slasher tales.
Here, the artist embalms an apparition of the present into an artifactual museum of a collective spirituality. His "Santong Pikon" assumes a corrupted shape and its halo melts into a ragged blanket over its body splayed on a display cushion. A plastic water bottle protects a thirsting bust as if it is under a glass vitrine in "Uhaw sa Biyaya." Enshrined on the wall is "Tupang Pula," in which man clings to the sacrificial lamb as its scapegoat.
Finally, in "Solo Show Gallery 3," the artist paints a premonition of this spiritual gathering in a mural-size canvas, effectively functioning as a static hall of mirrors: a metacommentary on the premeditated nature of the altar he built.
A moralist in the Millenial Age, Doktor Karayom takes the stylistic qualities of punk art into a spiritually bankrupt present and bears the reminder that man fallibly created God in his hollowed image.

How Did Hayley Mills Lose Her Fortune?
Post category:Estate Planning / News
Hayley Mills was just a teen when she starred in perhaps her biggest role— a dual part in which she played rival identical twins Susan and Sharon in the 1961 classic The Parent Trap.
The Wealth Advisor's recent article entitled "How Former Child Star Hayley Mills Lost Her $17 Million Disney Movie Fortune" said that Mills worked so hard as a child by the time she was 21, she'd starred in over a dozen films, including Tiger Bay (1959), Whistle Down the Wind (1961), In Search of the Castaways (1962), Summer Magic (1963), The Trouble With Angels (1966) and The Moon-Spinners (1964).
However, now, in her new book, Forever Young, Hayley Mills reveals that a trust was set up for her to access at age 21 — and what happened to leave her destitute. She says that when she went to claim her Disney fortune, she was shocked to find that it had been taxed by the British government at a rate of 91%.
She wrote that her lawyer Stanley Passmore broke the unpleasant news. "Well, my dear, basically, the Revenue have attacked your trust company," he explained. "They're going to tax you at the full rate: 91 percent of the entire trust."
She remembers the feeling of dread that followed. "I felt the blood drain from my face," she wrote in Forever Young. "Nothing you can do, really," Passmore told her. "You could contest it but if I were you, I'd leave the country!"
Mills claims that Passmore told her she should have "repudiated" the trust before turning 21 and said it was too late to do anything about it. Rather than sue her father or her lawyer over the bad advice on her paychecks, she filed repeated tax appeals. In 1972, she briefly won a ruling stating that she'd already paid taxes on her money.
"My tax case went up before the Master of the Rolls, Lord Denning," Mills wrote. "Pointing out that I'd already paid tax on my earnings and shouldn't have to pay a surtax, he ruled that the money belonged to me."
Nonetheless, she wasn't able to hold onto her $17 million in earnings. The House of Lords appealed the ruling two years later. "The state had plundered my trust like a horde of pirates," wrote the star. "The Disney money was all gone."
She did manage to act after Disney, starring in The Family Way (1966), Pretty Polly (1967) and others, leading up to several Parent Trap sequels in the 1980s.
In a September 2021 interview with the Los Angeles Times, she compared the loss of her Disney fortune to a dream. "I never saw it," she told the newspaper. "I knew it was there, and one day I would have it, but it was just sort of a dream, and then one day the dream was gone."

You are here: Home SPECIAL REPORTS Dog & Cat Antiparasitics in Latin America
Dog and Cat Antiparasitics in Latin America (2015). A market survey
The author has carried out a survey on the veterinary antiparasitics marketed in Latin America by the end of 2015. A total of 2602 antiparasitic products (ectoparasiticides, anthelmintics and endectocides) for livestock (including horses), dogs and cats have been reviewed, marketed by 173 animal health companies. The survey covers more than 90% of all the products available in the region. This article offers a summary of the results for dogs and cats obtained in this survey.
Animal Health Companies active in Latin America included in the survey
Six global multinational companies are included in the review: Bayer, Elanco, Merial, MSD Animal Health, Virbac, and Zoetis. These companies have been traditionally involved in the discovery and development of new endectocidal, ectoparasiticidal and/or anthelmintic active ingredients (excepting Virbac; Elanco only after acquiring Novartis AH).
The remaining 167 companies reviewed are mainly domestic companies and a few European ones that have established affiliates or subsidiaries in Latin America, e.g. Calier, Ceva, Bimeda, Fatro, Vetoquinol, etc. Antiparasitic products marketed by these companies in Latin America (not those marketed in Europe or elsewhere) have been included in this survey. Only companies with at least three antiparasitic products have been considered for this survey. Table 1 shows the number of companies in each of the major countries included in this survey, whereby many companies are active in numerous Latin American countries.
Table 1: Number of Animal Health companies active in Latin America reviewed
Country Companies Products Average
Argentina 41 648 16
Brazil 30 389 13
Colombia 29 330 11
Mexico 35 337 10
Peru 8 145 18
Uruguay 5 189 38
Rest 19 337 18
Multinationals 6 227 38
Total 173 2'602 15
Out of the recorded 2'602 antiparasitics, 1'906 are approved for use on livestock and 795 for use on pets, whereby numerous livestock products are approved for use on dogs and cats as well, particularly topical products (dips, sprays, dressings, etc.) as well as anthelmintic additives and drenches. The antiparasitics for use on livestock are analyzed in another article in this site (link).
From the 795 pet antiparasitic products recorded in this survey, only four contain an a.i. that is still patent-protected (afoxolaner, fluralaner, indoxacarb and pyriprole). This means that 99.95% all antiparasitics for use on pets in Latin America are basically generics.
Delivery forms of dog and cat antiparasitics by target species
Low-cost topicals (aerosols, baths, powders, shampoos, soaps, sprays, etc.) lead the number of pet antiparasitics in Latin America. This may reflect the fact that many people in Latin America just cannot afford the expensive once-a-month spot-ons, but also the fact that development of such low-cost topicals is also quite cheap for manufacturers. Second most numerous product category are oral solids (tablets, capsules, chewables, etc.) followed by oral liquids (suspensions, gels, etc.). The popularity of pet wormers in the form of oral liquids is one of the many differences between Latin America and other pet markets (e.g. USA, EU), where such products are rather unusual.

Spot-ons 100 81 45
Total 795 758 383
* Same product often approved for both dogs and cats; ** Most products approved also for use on livestock.
Chemical classes of dog and cat antiparasitics by target species
In pets, isoquinolines (praziquantel) are the most used chemical class of antiparasitics in Latin America. This reflects the fact that most pet wormers include praziquantel to ensure adequate tapeworm control. Second most used chemical class are the synthetic pyrethroids (SPs), which are use a lot in low-cost topicals and dressings. Third most used chemical class are the tetrahydropyrimidines (mainly pyrantel pamoate) abundantly used in pet wormers, both solids (tablets, chewables, etc.) and liquids (suspensions, gels, drops, etc.).
Table 3 summarizes the number of products for each chemical class and target species.

Macrocyclic lactones (ML) used in dog and cat antiparasitics
Ivermectin is the most used ML a.i. in pets in Latin America. Interestingly, besides the oral delivery practiced everywhere in the world, up to 15 injectables and 3 spot-ons with ivermectin are approved for use on pets in Latin America. Interestingly too, domestic companies have not yet introduced generic versions of milbemycin oxime, moxidectin or selamectin for use on pets.
Tables 4 and 5 show the number of products with MLs marketed in Latin America for pets found in this survey, Table 4 by target species, Table 5 by delivery form.

Anthelmintic active ingredients used for dogs and cats in Latin America
Praziquantel is the most used pet anthelmintic in Latin America. The reason is that almost all pet wormers that ensure tapeworm control contain praziquantel, excepting a few ones with broad-spectrum benzimidazoles (albendazole, fenbendazole, etc.). Second most used anthelmintic a.i. is pyrantel (mostly pamoate), followed by fenbendazole. Interestingly, levamisole use in pets is quite frequent too in Latin America, in contrast with the USA and the EU, where levamisole is hardly used in pets.
Tables 6 shows the number of products with the most frequent anthelmintics marketed in Latin America.

* Same product often approved for more than one target species; many products with more than one active ingredient.
Ectoparasiticidal active ingredients used for dogs and cats in Latin America
Permethrin is the most frequently used a.i. in pet ectoparasiticides in Latin America, followed by cypermethrin. Both compounds are used in dozens of low-cost topicals (aerosols, baths, powders, shampoos, soaps, etc.) and dressings. Imidacloprid and fipronil are the next two a.i. most used in pet antiparasitics. They are used mainly in once-a-month spot-ons, but also in numerous low-cost topicals. The very abundant imidacloprid spot-ons with generic imidacloprid is also a rather particular feature of the Latin American market: such imidacloprid generics are very unusual in other major markets (Europe, USA, Australia, etc.).
The fact that numerous products containing SPs are approved for use on cats is rather surprising, since it is known that cats do not tolerate SPs.

It's a steamy 80 degrees in West Hollywood, but Gwen Stefani rolls into the Soho House rocking a pink leather jacket and looking fresh as a flower as she sails up the baby-grand staircase with a familiar ease. Her family enjoys the occasional bite here—there's a playroom adjacent to the dining room, and Stefani's two boys, Hollywood's most famous junior hipsters Kingston and Zuma, run riot there in between bites. Closer up, she's a bit wobbly in her Jimmy Choos (all these years later and Stefani still struggles with stilettos) as she makes her way over to a sofa by a window overlooking the Sunset Strip, where, even as the 20-something front woman of No Doubt, she was "never allowed to come" by her overprotective parents.
There's no hint of complaining here. For Stefani, it's a simple litany of what she sees as obligations she wouldn't even consider dispatching to assistants. If anything, her words echo the chorus of so many working parents of young children: There aren't enough hours in the day.
For years Stefani says she yearned to be a mother. Now she's got the challenge of rearing two high-energy boys just a few years apart in age. "From the moment they wake up", she says dryly, "they start beating on each other. I never knew they would be so physical. They're just starting to play real well together, but with a lot of fighting. They do look out for each other – especially the little one, he really loves his older brother.

_reality | Planet TV (Slovenia)
complete production
(from set design & construction to post-production)
Anno (Bilo je nekoč), originally produced by Strix Norway, is a competitive reality show which takes its competitors on an epic social experiment back in time to relive a challenging period in history, to learn the skills of the period, and to live like their forefathers have. A combination of scripted characters, historical settings, costumes, and classic competitive reality show, it is a whole new kind of a TV format.
Temma-X has been the first to produce it after Strix, taking what was originally a weekly reality show and turning it into a daily one - pushing the envelope even further than the original production.
The Slovenian version of the show is set in 1810 - the time of the Illyrian Provinces, a turbulent time of important social changes in Slovenia as well as the dawn of Slovenian national consciousness. In accordance with the historical background, Temma-X creatively produced the show, picked the set location, built the set, and took care of all the other aspects of production and post-production (from shooting, directing, to final editing), thus creating an unforgettable experience for the viewers of the show as well as the competitors.

US-led 'Peace to Prosperity' workshop kicks off in Bahrain
Staff writer, Al Arabiya English Tuesday, 25 June 2019
White House senior adviser Jared Kushner said that prosperity for the Palestinians is not possible without a fair political solution but that agreement on an economic pathway forward was a necessary precondition for Israeli-Palestinian peace.
Kushner was speaking at the opening of a workshop in Bahrain to showcase the economic portion of Washington's long-awaited Arab-Israeli peace plan, a $50 billion development blueprint unveiled this week.
Kushner said the political component of the plan would not be discussed at the event.
The conference aims to address the $50 billion Middle East economic plan, which hopes to set up a global investment fund to "lift the Palestinian and Arab state economies" and construct a $5 billion transportation corridor that would connect the West Bank with Gaza.
The workshop began with an opening speech from Kushner, who is the son-in-law and senior advisor of US President Donald Trump.
The panel after his speech will be on building a coalition for Middle East prosperity, according to the workshop's official program.
White House Adviser Jared Kushner: Some people have mockingly called this effort the "Deal of the Century" but at its core, it is not just about making a deal. In fact, this effort is better referred to as the "Opportunity of the Century".https://t.co/ZWRFNebzys pic.twitter.com/kQplbdsdt5
Top business people from around the world are set to attend workshop, including Founder and Chairman of UAE based Emaar Properties Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman, CEO, and Co-Founder of US-based Blackstone Steven Schwarzman, Chairman of Nigerian Heirs Holding Tony Elumelu, President of Turkish Summa Selim Bora, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund Christine Lagarde, CEO of Russian Direct Investment Fund Kirill Dmitriev, and Michael Wilkinson, a General Manager in the British Company, Bechtel.
The panel after Kushner's opening speech included Founder and Chairman of UAE based Emaar Properties Mohamed Alabbar and Chairman, CEO, and Co-Founder of US-based Blackstone Steven Schwarzman.
Other panels taking place in the two-day workshop are titled "Unleashing Economic Potential", "Empowering the People", "Strengthening the Workforce through Women's Empowerment", and "New Foundations for Growth".
The workshop will also include conversation sessions discussing sectors for growth, the power of sport and entertainment, future healthcare systems, developing a thriving local business environment, and economic transformation.
The workshop is part of US President Donald Trump's coming Middle East peace plan, according to the White House.
It is also expected to include proposals for resolving thorny political issues at the heart of the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Trump has touted the coming plan as the "deal of the century," but Palestinian officials have rebuked the US effort, which they believe will be heavily biased in favor of Israel.
Trump's Middle East team, led by Kushner and regional envoy Jason Greenblatt, appears intent on focusing initially on the potential economic benefits, despite deep skepticism among experts that they can succeed where decades of US-backed efforts have failed.

The island of Olèron is a beautiful patch of land just off the southwestern French coast. The place has been a holiday destination for thousands of tourists that come here annually ever since the 19th century.
Being only 3km away from the mainland, Ile de Olèron is connected with the continent by a road bridge that was once considered the longest construction in France when it was inaugurated in 1966. If you are vacationing in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, or just enjoying the sunny beaches of Fouras, you should not miss the opportunity to visit Olèron on a short afternoon trip.
The island of Olèron is the perfect holiday destination for history buffs. It is the second largest islet governed by France, after Corsica and it boasts a rich cultural heritage that dates back to the Roman age. Some of the most outstanding accounts regarding Olèron date back to the 7th century when the island was part of the Vacetian Islands, which were under the influence of the nearby Basque population.
During the Second World War, the island of Olèron played a significant part in the defensive line of the German occupation. The French army finally took back the islet in 1945 following a massive artillery attack on the Nazi troops.
The best thing about Olèron is that you can visit it all year long. Due to the Gulf Stream current and the temperate climate of Western Europe, the island enjoys a pleasant weather regardless of the changing seasons.
A trip around Olèron can take you from the sandy beaches in the west to the center of the island where small hills of green grass offer a breathtaking imagery. Further venturing across the beautiful French island can reveal large oyster beds at low tide and majestic sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean.
The inhabitants of Olèron have been thoroughly rewarded by the island's natural richness over the centuries. Besides the large fishing areas located on its shores, Olèron also benefits from a fertile land that produces abundant crops every year.
Like in many other French regions, the vineyard is the primary culture on the island of Olèron. The local wine is a delicious, tasty version of the Bordeaux liqueur and it is one of the many reasons of local pride for the residents. A visit to Olèron should also include a circuit of the local distilleries where they produce one of the best assortments of cognac in the world.
The island of Olèron has little over 22,000 inhabitants. However, that number triples in size during the high season when tourists from all over the world come to relax on its shores. If you are traveling around western France, you should not miss a short trip to this lovely island, even if it's just for a few hours.
Long-term leisure holidays in Olèron are a great way of exploring the Nouvelle-Aquitaine area. Daily trips to nearby Fouras, La Rochelle, and the Fort Boyard can offer a delightful escape from your usual daily routine.

Ask Fr. Francis: Which Gospel Should I Start With?
You are right in saying that, in introducing the bible to a non-Christian, the Gospel is a good place to start, since it is the life and words of Jesus Himself.
