Frederick "Curly" Neal was born (On today 81 years ago, May 19, 1942) he was one of the most memorable basketball players who played with the Harlem Globetrotters. Following in the footsteps of Marques Haynes, Neal became the Trotters' featured ballhandler, a key role in the team's exhibition act.
Born in Greensboro, North Carolina, Neal attended James B. Dudley High School and Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte, North Carolina from 1959 to 1963. At Smith, he averaged 23.1 points a game and was named All-Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) guard.
Neal played for 22 seasons (from 1963 to 1985) with the Globetrotters, appearing in more than 6,000 games in 97 countries. His shaved head earned him his nickname, a reference to the Three Stooges' Curly Howard. In the 1970s, an animated version of Neal starred with various other Globetrotters in the Hanna-Barbera animated cartoon Harlem Globetrotters as well as its spinoff, The Super Globetrotters, The New Scooby-Doo Movies and Gilligan's Island. On March 26, 2020, Neal died at his home outside Houston at the age of 77.

if the prev west end alts (zara, cherelle, hana) ~and grace, vicki, courtney ig- followed the current alt cos system with the primaries for first covers and either pink, teal, or orange for 2nd and 3rds, what costumes do you think they’d have
I am actually very curious about that. Because alt colors are now assigned following what fits better for the combination of second and third covers. But the alt costumes were designed for the original (and second gen) WE alts and their first covers. So them having principal costumes for their first covers from the start would have in theory created completely different alt costumes.
And then you get the original alts covers. Alt colors would have been asigned and costumes made right at opening which means that would have happened before Courtney and Grace switched Aragon and Seymour as first covers. In that case Courtney would have had a principal Aragon and Grace a principal Seymour costume plus an alt each before the switch. So what would have happened? No switch or them having their final covers from the start? Also pink and silver didn't exist back then so they would have had in theory only black, teal and orange at that point. Also Vicki might have gotten her principal Howard early if her temporarily taking over was the plan since Shekinah joined because at that point she became alt B/H. So I have a few scenarios.
Original WE cast. Only three original alt colors exist. Grace and Courtney start with their original covers: (I dont love this one but it is the best way it works with their covers)
Grace: Principal Seymour and Howard, black alt (A/B/C/P). If the switch happens she gets principal Aragon later.
Courtney: Principal Aragon and Parr, teal alt (B/S/C/H). Post switch she adds principal Seymour.
Vicki: Principal Boleyn and Cleves, orange alt (A/S/H/P).
Only three alt colors, Grace and Courtney start with their final covers. (again not ideal)
Grace: Principal Aragon and Howard, orange alt (B/S/C/P).
Courtney: Principal Seymour and Parr, black alt (A/B/C/H).
Vicki: Principal Boleyn and Cleves, teal alt (A/S/H/P).
All five alt colors, Grace and Courtney start with their original covers:
Grace: Principal Seymour and Howard, orange alt (A/B/C/P).
Courtney: Principal Aragon and Parr, teal alt (B/S/C/H).
Vicki: Principal Boleyn and Cleves, pink alt (A/S/H/P).
All five colors, Grace and Courtney start with their final covers:
Grace: Principal Aragon and Howard, orange alt (B/S/C/P).
Courtney: Principal Seymour and Parr, teal alt (A/B/C/H).
Vicki: Principal Boleyn and Cleves, pink alt (A/S/H/P).
2019 WE cast (silver didn't exist by this point):
Collette: still black because this is when it became a swing design.
Cherelle: Principal Boleyn and Cleves, pink alt (A/S/H/P).
Hanna: Principal Seymour and Parr, teal alt (A/B/C/H).
Zara: Principal Aragon and Howard, orange alt (B/S/C/P).
Shekinah:Principal Aragon and Cleves, emergency shorts if she ever played any other queen.

Find A Song about the coming of spring
The Duke of Norfolk - Golden Light & Thistle
About two years ago my sister, Young Adult Fantasy Author Hanna C. Howard, called me, said she was writing a new book, and asked if I would be interested in writing the song which would play a central part in resolution of the story. I said I would absolutely love to try but, as I was in the midst of a long bout of writers block, I wasn’t at all sure that I would be able to pull it off. The book is set in a fictional Scotland and the song needed to stir some sense of home and belonging. So just after Christmas last year, I holed myself up and, after reading a slew of Burns and Scott and Keats and all manner of other Scots and Romantic poetry, set myself to the task of writing a song about the coming of spring. I then took the resulting song, Golden Light & Thistle, to Hanna and asked if it would work for the book. She said that it was a perfect fit (whooosh!) and then wove it beautifully through the story.

Howard M. Hanna Jr. House
11505 Lakeshore Boulevard
Bratenahl, OH
Built in 1910 for Howard Hanna Jr. and his wife, the nationally registered and historic iconic Howard M. Hanna Jr. House on Lake Erie is 25,000 square feet sprawled over four floors. Howard Hanna Jr. was one of the partners of M. A. Hanna & Company, a director and officer in a dozen or more of the big coal, transportation, and other corporations of Cleveland and elsewhere. He was one of the younger representatives of a family that has been exceedingly prominent in business and politics in Ohio and the nation for more than half a century.  Howard Melville Hanna, Jr., was born on December 14, 1877, to Howard Melville and Kate Smith Hanna. Howard Sr. was the nephew of Mark Hanna, the president maker of the McKinley era. Howard’s two sisters lived in the next two houses east of the Hanna home.
     Howard Jr. was educated in public schools and graduated from University School in 1897. He spent three years in the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University.  In 1901, Howard began his business career at the C & P Ore Dock in Cleveland, taking his place in the ranks. In 1902, he was assistant to the manager of the Pennsylvania Ore Docks, with offices in the Pery-Payne Building. For two years, Howard was secretary of the Boomer Coal & Coke Company of West Virginia. He then entered the coal sales department of the M. A. Hanna Company. In 1906, he organized the Iron Ore Mining Department of the M. A. Hanna & Company, was its active manager.
     Howard married his cousin, Jean Claire Hanna, in 1907. Jean was born on December 31, 1882, to Leonard and Fanny Hanna.   In 1912, Hanna became a partner in M. A. Hanna Company. The other active partners were Leonard C. Hanna, Leonard C. Hanna Jr., Matthew Andrews, F. B. Richards, William Collins, Richard F. Grant, and James D. Ireland Sr.  The partnership discontinued, and the M. A. Hanna Company was incorporated in 1922 with Howard Hanna Jr. as the first president. He became chairman of the board in 1929.  Hanna organized the Standard Investment Company and the National Steel Company in 1929.  In March 1945, Howard attendedthe funeral of his sister, Gertrude Hanna Haskell. Then, he took his chauffeur's place to drive the car to the Cleveland Union Terminal. As Mr. Hanna put his foot on the starter, he suddenly fell forward over the wheel and died instantly. His chauffeur took him to Charity Hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead on March 17, 1945. The doctors attribute his death to coronary thrombosis. However, associates said that he had not previously shown any signs of heart trouble.  Jean died on April 13, 1973, and was buried alongside Howard in Lake View Cemetery.   The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 24, 1974.

Review | The Crowns of Croswald by D.E. Night
Tumblr media
Author: D.E. Night
Title: The Crowns of Croswald
Genres: Fantasy, Middle Grade, YA Fantasy
Series: The Crowns of Croswald
Page Count: 249
Published: 07/21/2017
YA Fiction and Fantasy are almost always some version of a coming of age tale and The Crowns of Croswald by D.E. Night is no different. Take the familiar coming of age story, add in some unique magic and mix it all up in an interesting new world and you have some decent story potential on your hands. But how will The Crowns of Croswald by D.E. Night fare?
Before we get to the review let’s hit all the particulars. The Crowns of Croswald is written by author D.E. Night and is published by Stories Untold Press. The book was first published back in 2017 and full disclosure, I was approached by Stories Untold Press to see if I was interested in taking a look at this first book in the series. Being that I’ve reviewed some YA Fantasy titles in the past, (see my reviews/interviews for Ignite the Sun by Hanna C Howard, Twin Daggers by MarcyKate Connolly, and A Curse of Gold by Annie Sullivan) I said “Sure! Let’s take a look!”.
The ONLY requirement asked of me was that I read it within a month(CHECK) and that I leave an HONEST review on both Amazon and Goodreads(CHECK and CHECK). I like to let you guys know of these things so you know the review is NOT bought and paid for, rather it’s my full honesty as I think about what I just read.
Ok, lets get to it.
The book opens with a slightly familiar premise of an orphan girl living a life of relative obscurity and poverty, yet having some mysterious friends, a talent for drawing, and dreams that are vividly real.
In those dreams she sees a castle and in that castle is a man. A man she can never quite see fully, and a man that never talks to her.
Almost immediately we’re thrust into the story proper as Ivy(our main character and said orphan girl) is whisked away to a mysterious magic school after a “less than ideal” exit from the castle she grew up a servant in.
Once at the magic school, Ivy is thrust into a world of various magics, mystery, curious beasts, and of course… eventually the threat of… THE DARK QUEEN. But I won’t go too far down that road so as not to spoil anything for you.
Along the way, and largely BEFORE we reach the halfway point of this first book, we meet a whole bunch of quirky and interesting people. From magic teachers in the school to eccentric shop owners, even mysterious ghosts and people long thought dead.
And it doesn’t take long for the threat of danger and the hero’s quest/coming of age tale to get underway in earnest for young Ivy.
There are a few key elements in every fantasy story that can absolutely make or break the tale. The first being the magic system, the second being the creatures and world building.
The magic system in The Crowns of Croswald is interesting. There seems to be two parts to it, and I enjoyed the evolution of the split or division between the two types of magic. There are the those that need magic stones in their crowns to provide them a semblance of magic and there are those with the innate ability.
The division between the two feels at times like a slightly ham-fisted approach of “needing to work together” or “understand that our differences should be celebrated not looked down upon”. There is absolutely a feeling of one group looking down hard on the other, it reminds me of High School Musical in many ways.
I know, I know! Where the heck is this coming from?!
In those movies there are the rich kids that have all the opportunities and “talent” while the kids deemed lower class, aka poor kids, aren’t supposed to have much talent. But of course, once push comes to shove and they are forced to work together, some of the biggest talents come from those less fortunate.
I enjoyed how the different types of magic were presented, even if we don’t get too much of a look at HOW it works. I can only assume that in the next books in the series we’ll be treated to more.
The tough part about this genre is that these days, everything runs the risk of being compared to the legendary Harry Potter. While there certainly were more than a few Harry Potter vibes in terms of general themes, I feel like the magic system and story elements were unique in their own right, making this feel like a familiar yet unique story.
The Bottom Line
Overall, as a YA Fantasy title I think the book was pretty decent. While I’m certainly not the exact target audience, I can see how this would be a highly enjoyable world for a younger audience to get sucked into.
For me, it felt a little bland (though I enjoy the concept of the Scrivenest and the magic in the quills) and a LOT predictable. I think from the earliest chapters, anyone that has enjoyed modern YA fantasy is going to find it’s very predictable, yet still enjoyable, to read.
That’s not always a bad thing however, sometimes it’s nice to be able to get lost in a story without feeling like you have to “figure it out” so you can understand what’s going on.
I give The Crowns of Croswald by D.E. Night 3 out of 5 stars.
The people, creatures, and magical world of Croswald is worthy of your exploration… assuming you want to zone out with a fun and easy read containing very few surprises that you won’t see coming.

IGNITE THE SUN
by Hanna C Howard

Add to Goodreads
Purchase from Indiebound
Sixteen year-old Siria Nightingale has never seen the sun. The light is dangerous, according to Queen Iyzabel, an evil witch who has shrouded the kingdom in shadow. Siria has always hated the darkness and revels in the stories of the light-filled old days that she hears from her best friend and his grandfather. Besides them, nobody else understands her fascination with the sun, especially not her strict and demanding parents. Siria's need to please them is greater even than her fear of the dark. So she heads to the royal city--the very center of the darkness--for a chance at a place in Queen Iyzabel's court. But what Siria discovers at the Choosing Ball sends her on a quest toward the last vestiges of the sun with a ragtag group of rebels who could help her bring back the Light ... or doom the kingdom to shadow forever.

“Real life tomb raider Joan Howard pictured with a mummy mask she found at Sakkara, the necropolis for the ancient Egyptian capital Memphis.”
Perth woman Joan Howard has been accused by a group of concerned Egyptian archaeologists of looting artefacts from Egypt, Jordan and Palestine. Earlier this month Howard gave an interview to The West Australian in which she proudly detailed her adventures during the 1960s and early 1970s while her husband, Keith, travelled widely in the Middle East. "It was all good fun. Dirty work, of course. But as it turned out, very, very rewarding," she told the newspaper. The antiquities are said to be worth around $1 million.
Howard used the diplomatic freedom afforded by her husband's job with the United Nations to travel between Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine and Israel, where she volunteered on archeological digs with British and American archaeologists. Laws subsequently changed to make it illegal to dig for and remove antiquities.
The story says she now has Neolithic axe heads, pottery and weapons from the Phoenicians and the Romans, coins and seals and jewellery from the time of the pharaohs, and a precious funerary mask from Egypt.
Howard told the newspaper she felt "absolute wonder and astonishment" when she looked at these artifacts. Asked why she had kept quiet about her haul until now, she said: "You don't go round saying 'I've been in a tomb'."
However, Monica Hanna, a prominent archaeologist who works closely with the Egyptian government, has accused Howard of outright cultural theft. "I was really appalled by her attitude because she broke the law", Hanna told Fairfax Media. "This is not something nice or fashionable to do to come and pretend to be Indiana Jones".
Shaaban Abdel Gawad, the director-general of the Retrieved Antiquities Department at Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities said, "We want to investigate how these pieces made it out of Egypt illegally."
Egypt's foreign ministry has contacted Australian authorities to open an investigation, Gawad said, and Neil Hawkins, Australia's ambassador to Egypt, was aware of the case.
Hanna said Howard's digs were not authorised by any educational institution, nor given permission from Egyptian or other Arab authorities."I would like the objects to be repatriated to Egypt, Palestine and the other countries" Hanna added.
"Australia implements its obligations under the UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property (1970) … this includes the return of foreign cultural property which has been illegally exported from its country of origin and imported into Australia," the spokesman said.
Egypt and the wider Middle East have been vulnerable sites for rampant illicit trade of important cultural artefacts by transnational criminal networks.
Australia and Egypt are both signatories of the Convention which stipulates that artefacts musts be properly returned to their countries of origin but the enforcement of such international treaties are haphazard and weak.
In May this year, the Egyptian government amended a law raising the maximum sentence for illegal trade of antiquities to life in prison.
"The theft of antiquities and its subsequent sale is not a new phenomenon and we are interested in retrieving those that belong to our country wherever they may be," Abdel Gawad said.

Book Review: Ignite the Sun by Hanna C. Howard
This book held such an amazing premise when I started reading it: an evil queen, the never-ending darkness, a quest to bring back the Light, and save the kingdom. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the premise.
Howard's debut book Ignite the Sun is a fantasy young adult novel about a common 16-year-old girl with a fear of darkness in a kingdom where darkness always prevails. Overnight, she is thrust into an entirely new world, discovering she is not who she thought she was and learning about her duty to the kingdom and her people. On the quest, she tries to find herself through love, friendship and magic.
Going into the book, I didn't have necessarily high expectations, but the plot was something I would read in a moment if offered - just the thing that is right up my alley. But even after the first few chapters, I started noticing things that don't usually bother me if done well, but they really weren't: cliches. And deeper I went into it, more of them there were - and I wouldn't have minded, but they were badly incorporated at inappropriate times, but I would have handled that if they were done and gone through properly, but they really weren't. I think the sentence 'One bed.', is all I have to add here.
Siria, the main character, was a person I started off liking a lot, but that just stopped after we got around to the quest portion of the book. Her backstory somehow didn't match a lot to what she was going through at that time - as a rebelling child, although she was supposed to be coddled and cherished, I didn't expect to spend a good 1/4 of the book with her muttering and holding grudges and being angry at everyone for not telling her something they possibly couldn't. But again, I could have handled the growth of her character if it was done properly.
Especially looking at the world and how it is right now, I think we need more strong female characters that find strength, bravery, and magic in themselves, without a prince charming always standing around. And that might have been a bit of a problem here. Although in the beginning, I really liked the slow-building romance in this book, from childhood friends to starstruck lovers, as we might say, I think it would have been better if they stayed best friends as the book and their romance started dragging on.
Another thing that bothered me a bit was the ending: we get this pretty slow-paced story at the start, them travelling to the North on foot, and then suddenly we're 80% into the book and everything, and I mean everything, goes down. The pace could have been a lot more thought out, and the ending shouldn't have been rushed as much as it was.
Saying all of this, I can't deny the fact that at times, I still enjoyed the book and its premise, thinking of it as more of a light, fun, romance-filled read with some feeble characters, but with some who I loved seeing grow: Yarrow, Elegy and Merrall. Although this was a 3 star read for me, I think some of you who are into light and fun novels with a twist of magic could still enjoy it a lot.
Disclaimer: I received the eARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
Expected publication: August 18th 2020 by Blink Read: June 20th 2020 Rating: 3 stars | ★★★☆☆ Review cross-posted to Goodreads.

This episode I’m joined by talented Author Hanna C Howard to talk about her fantastic new book “Ignite the Sun”.
Of course we also cover a lot of ground about her start in writing, her creative process and much, much more!
Ignite the Sun, from the Amazon description:“Once upon a time, there was something called the sun … In a kingdom ruled by a witch, the sun is just part of a legend about Light-filled days of old. But now Siria Nightingale is headed to the heart of the darkness to try and restore the Light—or lose everything trying.
Sixteen-year-old Siria Nightingale has never seen the sun. That’s because Queen Iyzabel shrouded the kingdom in shadow upon her ascent to the throne, with claims it would protect her subjects from the dangerous Light.
The Darkness has always left Siria uneasy, and part of her still longs for the stories of the Light-filled days she once listened to alongside her best friend Linden, told in secret by Linden’s grandfather. But Siria’s need to please her strict and demanding parents means embracing the dark and heading to the royal city—the very center of Queen Izybel’s power—for a chance at a coveted placement at court. And what Siria discovers at the Choosing Ball sends her on a quest toward the last vestiges of Light, alongside a ragtag group of rebels who could help her restore the sun … or doom the kingdom to shadow forever.
Ignite the Sun is:
A YA fantasy adventure that is exciting and unique, right down to its metallic book cover
An allegorical exploration of the struggle with anxiety and depression
Perfect for readers 13 and up”
