Paul wasn't one of Jesus' friends - in fact he really didn't like

A Scrap in the Blessings Jar, a volume of new and selected poems by
David Bottoms, captures the evolution of the poet's spiritual quest
over the past fifty years. A native and longtime resident of
Georgia, Bottoms draws inspiration from the American South, and his
work examines themes related to family dynamics, the woods,
animals, fishing, and music in an effort to, as he once told an
interviewer, "reveal something about the hidden things of the
world, the vague or shadowy relationships and connections that
exist just below the surface of our daily lives." This book charts
his progression from tightly wrought naturalistic narratives to
works that reflect his shifting conception of the interplay between
memory, the present, and the metaphysical. At heart, Bottoms
remains a storyteller who employs figurative language to discover
the extraordinary in the seemingly mundane, and whose poetry
explores the depths of our existential condition and common
humanity.

'EIGHT YEARS WITH RANGERS, MORE THAN 300 GAMES, INCREDIBLE HIGHS,
PAINFUL LOWS - AND IT ALL CAME DOWN TO ONE NIGHT IN THE NOU CAMP'
24 May 1972. The biggest night in the history of Rangers. Having
overcome the might of Italian giants Torino and Beckenbauer's
Bayern Munich en route to the final of the European Cup Winners'
Cup, Dynamo Moscow stood between the Light Blues and the trophy.
The stage was set in Barcelona for an unsung hero: Dave Smith.
Creator of two of the goals on the night and arguably man of the
match. In a rollercoaster career, Smith joined the Ibrox club from
Aberdeen in 1966 for a record fee. He tasted defeat in the 1967
European Cup Winners' Cup final and had his career blighted by two
horrific leg breaks during a period in which he also experienced
the tragedy of the Ibrox disaster. But by 1972 Smith was a lynchpin
of Willie Waddell's team. Playing as sweeper, he dicated the tempo
of games with his vision and pinpoint passing. The star of the Nou
Camp victory was voted Player of the Year in Scotland to cap the
most memorable of seasons. He departed Rangers in 1974, making a
shock switch to Arbroath after a fallout with new Ibrox manager
Jock Wallace, before going on to star overseas in South Africa and
then alongside George Best for the LA Aztecs in America. Rejecting
the chance to join Paris Saint-Germain, Smith chose to end his
career in Scotland's lower leagues as player-manager at Berwick
Rangers where he would find success and happiness playing the game
the way it was meant to be played.
Ford and Mercury sold well over 2.5 million of their fantastic
'Fox-body' Mustang and Capri sports coupes, hatches and
convertibles over a 15-year lifespan, but with the youngest among
them currently approaching their 30th birthday, the years will have
taken their toll. With Foxes now taking their place among their
predecessors in the classic Mustang pantheon, and prices on the
rise, this is the time to buy. They've passed through their 'cheap
clunker' phase, and this book looks at the Fox Mustang/Capri for
the 21st century. Whether you're searching for a daily driver or a
cosseted investment; a 'survivor' or a highly-modified custom; a
cruiser or a drag-strip warrior, this book looks at the common
issues and rust spots, the most desirable years, specifications and
options, and how to find, buy, maintain and enjoy the right Fox for
you. Author Dave Smith is a motoring journalist and Fox owner,
builder and enthusiast, and with help from other enthusiasts and
experts, has put together a pocket guide that will be indispensable
for the prospective Fox buyer!
