The former Lutherville resident was 84. Born in Baltimore and raised in Guilford on Suffolk Road, he was the son of Dr. Albert R. Wilkerson Sr., an internist, and Eleanor Moss, a homemaker. Charles E. Geyer, superintendent of buildings for the B & O Railroad, dies » He attended the Calvert School and was a 1956 graduate of the Gilman School. He spent summers at Camp Wallula in New London, New Hampshire, as a camper and later as a counselor and archery coach. He earned a degree at Colgate University and was awarded an honorable mention as a lacrosse midfielder in the 1950 All American honors. He received a master’s degree in education from what is now Towson University and was a graduate of the University of Baltimore School of Law. As a young man, he was a probation officer. He served in the Army National Guard and was a marksman. “He was renowned for his peeled potatoes and accolades for his mashed potatoes as a cook,” said his son, Russell Wilkerson. “He would proudly tell his children, ‘An army marches on it stomach.’ ” As a student at Colgate, he met his future wife, Kathryn Hope. “They were introduced through a blind date set up by a friend.

He always came through with good advice. He made classes fun. You wanted to go to his classes.” His daughter, Hope Pezzulla of Mays Chapel, said, “My dad was a special teacher and coach. As a teacher, he could be strict, but he always made the extra time for his students. He never came home early from school.” She also said, “He was a pioneer in the understanding of middle school boys. Even when it was not diagnosed, he identified what we now call attention deficit disorder and dyslexia. He had a deep innate understanding of these conditions and identified with his students.” She said if his students were growing restless, he would take his class outside for an unscheduled quick recreation. “He used it get that angst out,” she said. Celia V. Carr, first Black department head at Western High School, dies » After he retired from St. Paul’s, he and his wife opened a catalog business called Lefties Unlimited.

Mr. Wilkerson was a member of the Orton Society and helped children with dyslexia, which he experienced throughout his life. He was an American Red Cross blood donor. “He was a universal donor, and he maxed out in giving every year,” his son said. “It was a way for him to help people.” At Thanksgiving, he used ceramic crocks to make an applejack-based beverage he called Uncle Doty’s.

Even on larger 20-inch alloy wheels, over most road surfaces other than severe bumps, the 530e is fairly fluid for a PHEV. Often the extra weight of the battery means the suspension has to work harder to control the body and it can affect the wheels’ reactions to imperfections, too, but the BMW manages to (mostly) shrug this off. The A6 is a little smoother on its smaller wheels, but the 530e comfortably has the measure of the S90. You don’t need a stopwatch to tell that it’s slower than its rivals, though. But if you do use one you’ll find that, despite a lower kerbweight, the lack of power means that the 530e takes 5.9 seconds to sprint from 0-62mph; that’s 0.4 seconds slower than the A6 and 0.8 seconds behind the Volvo. However, hybrids like these deliver a strong and quick hit of torque from their electric motors when you tap the throttle, so the BMW still feels more than quick enough. It’s very quiet in EV mode, and when the petrol engine kicks in, it only sounds coarse at higher revs. It’s also much less droney than the Volvo, even if it isn’t as quiet as the Audi. Practicality The battery has to go somewhere. In the 5 Series it’s underneath the back seats and the boot, and this compromises luggage space. So the boot capacity drops from 530 litres in a 520i to 410 litres in this 530e. This is still more than on offer in the A6 TFSI e, however. Inside the 530e there’s masses of space, though, with no compromise compared with ICE versions. It’s the roomiest of the three models, with excellent head and legroom. The A6 runs it very close, while the Volvo feels just a little smaller. Visibility in the BMW is good, and with all-round parking sensors plus a standard reversing camera in M Sport trim, there’s a bit of help to manoeuvre this near-five-metre-long car if you need it. Ownership Features like the sensors and camera help the BMW’s ownership proposition, but it does lack a little safety kit. Advertisement Autonomous braking is included, but if you want more tech you’ll have to go for the pricey £4,995 Technology Plus Pack, which also includes the Driving Assistance Professional kit. This brings adaptive cruise with active lane guidance, front and rear cross-traffic alert, collision warning, lane- departure warning with lane-keep assist, AEB for when you’re reversing, and evasive steering assist. Like all three cars in this test, the 5 Series inherits the five-star Euro NCAP safety rating its predecessor was given back in 2017. Yet owners didn’t rate the German brand’s cars all that highly in our Driver Power 2020 owner satisfaction survey, with BMW finishing 27th out of 30 manufacturers. Running costs It may be partly due to its lower power output and partly down to its lower weight, but the BMW achieved the highest fuel economy, at 33.7mpg. As we’ve mentioned, this is without a full battery charge, which will cost around £1.96 on a home electricity tariff. Of course, if you do lots of short journeys and plug in frequently, you might not use any petrol for months. However, these cars are aimed at business users, so company car tax might be more important. The BMW is the cheapest (all three fall into the same 10 per cent Benefit-in-Kind tax band), so it’ll be a cost-effective company car. The 530e will cost a higher-rate taxpayer £2,139 a year, with the Audi coming in at £2,109 and the Volvo £2,210 a year. Although cheaper, a petrol-powered exec saloon will cost more than £5,300 a year by comparison, showing how much you could save if you’re a business user. Testers’ notes “As part of the facelift, BMW has added another plug-in powertrain to the 5 Series range, the six-cylinder 45e xDrive unit from the X5 SUV and 7 Series saloon. It’s smoother and more powerful, but pricier, too.”

“A Fisher athlete come up to me and tell me hey Mr. Diskin, did you hear sports are back? And I said what,” Fisher Athletic Director Cody Diskin said. That was a reaction a lot of people had today. State officials announced sports are once again allowed to play and compete in central Illinois. Athletes, coaches, parents, and athletic directors were shocked and excited about the news, but some questions still have to be answered before they move forward. The Champaign School District still hasn’t officially made a call on what its teams will do. Athletes in that district are waiting, while trying not to get their hopes up too high. Meanwhile, other schools are jumping on the opportunity. Henry Hamelberg is a basketball player and senior at Central High School in Champaign. “Its just kind of hard to know what to believe, but that’d be awesome if we could have a season,” Hamelberg said. That’s what the state “okay-ed” today. Public health officials and the governor announced sports can return in regions that are in phase four. That includes regions three and six, which are both in central Illinois. Hamelberg still hasn’t heard exactly what his district is going to do with the news, but he’s still excited about the news. One parent in Mahomet feels the same. “It’s been such an up and down roller coaster. We’ve had almost announcements. We’ve had disappointments. We’ve had really low points and so we’re trying not to get our hopes up too high,” Nikki Gallier said. Nikki Gallier’s kids are thrilled. “I think today provided that light at the end of the tunnel that all these Illinois kids have needed so desperately,” Gallier said. Other schools like Fisher are excited to have sports back as well. Athletic Director Cody Diskin says they have to wait until the IHSA meets before they can make any schedules. “The only news we found out is that sports is back,” Diskin said. Currently that meeting is scheduled to take place next Wednesday, January 27, but Diskin can’t wait to get the ball rolling. “We’re excited to be able to have our athletes be able to compete in every single sport and just ecstatic for our seniors to make those memories with teammates,” Diskin said. Seniors like Hamelberg are hoping for that chance, too. “I mean I’m just hopeful that we have a season, that’d be nice. Even if we don’t get to play that many games, it’d just be nice. Play with the guys on my team and have one last season together,” Hamelberg said. Guidelines for sports in Indiana are different. Hamelberg says he and other athletes from Central High have been driving to Indiana to play. Illinois is the last state in Midwest to green light sports. Other states surrounding Illinois have already allowed basketball and football. Copyright 2021 Nexstar Inc. All rights reserved.

Early evidence suggests the variant of coronavirus that emerged in the UK may be more deadly, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said. However, there remains huge uncertainty around the numbers - and vaccines are still expected to work. The data comes from mathematicians comparing death rates in people infected with either the new or the old versions of the virus. The new more infectious variant has already spread widely across the UK. Mr Johnson told a Downing Street briefing: "In addition to spreading more quickly, it also now appears that there is some evidence that the new variant - the variant that was first identified in London and the south east - may be associated with a higher degree of mortality. "It's largely the impact of this new variant that means the NHS is under such intense pressure." UK R number 'between 0.8 and 1' Public Health England, Imperial College London, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and the University of Exeter have each been trying to assess how deadly the new variant is. Their evidence has been assessed by scientists on the New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group (Nervtag). The group concluded there was a "realistic possibility" that the virus had become more deadly, but this is far from certain. Sir Patrick Vallance, the government's chief scientific adviser, described the data so far as "not yet strong". He said: "I want to stress that there's a lot of uncertainty around these numbers and we need more work to get a precise handle on it, but it obviously is a concern that this has an increase in mortality as well as an increase in transmissibility." Previous work suggests the new variant spreads between 30% and 70% faster than others, and there are hints it is about 30% more deadly. For example, with 1,000 60-year-olds infected with the old variant, 10 of them might be expected to die. But this rises to about 13 with the new variant. This difference is found when looking at everyone testing positive for Covid, but analysing only hospital data has found no increase in the death rate. Hospital care has improved over the course of the pandemic as doctors get better at treating the disease.

John Stones of Manchester City wins a header under pressure from Percy Tau of Brighton & Hove Albion during the Premier League match between Man City and Brighton at the Etihad Stadium on January 13 2021 in Manchester, England. Image: Laurence Griffiths/Getty Images Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane has said that Percy Tau did not make it to Brighton & Hove Albion in the English Premier League (EPL) by talent alone‚ but by additional hard work and having the correct mentality too. Tau has been recalled by Brighton from his third loan spell‚ at Anderlecht‚ since signing for the EPL club in 2018 from Mamelodi Sundowns‚ where the attacker won the 2016 Caf Champions League under Mosimane. Mosimane said he does not regret at the time of Tau opting to sign for Brighton‚ pressing to try to keep the Bafana Bafana star at the Brazilians for another year‚ as he believes South Africans are at a disadvantage moving to Europe in terms of their development they receive from youth level. He said such a disadvantage makes Tau’s success in reaching Brighton via three loans in Belgium – where he adjusted to European football and developed his game – more impressive.

I remember the meeting we had with the president of Sundowns [Patrice Motsepe] and Percy – it was one of the most emotional meetings‚ and I don’t want to go there. “All I’m saying is that Percy did not play in the Premier League today because he’s Percy Tau‚ because he’s a good player.

You’ve got to do a bit of extraordinary things to get to where you want to go. “To go to the Premier League – ask [ex-Everton star Steven] Pienaar‚ it’s the toughest league in the world. If you can play in the EPL‚ for me‚ it’s the best players [who do].” Mosimane added: “It’s important that at this point in time the Tau family can know that they are secure. Nobody in that family can say they did not have funds to go to university.” Tau has had three appearances since Brighton announced his recall on January 8‚ as a substitute in Albion's FA Cup win against Newport on penalties‚ starting in a 1-0 EPL defeat away to Manchester City‚ and coming on in their 1-0 away league win against Leeds United on Saturday. Mosimane was speaking before his team’s departure to the Fifa Club World Cup in Qatar‚ where Ahly meet host club Al-Duhail in the second round on February 4. READ MORE Want to win friends in SA?

La categoría de sedanes y hatchbacks demostró lo que es una tendencia en el mundo entero y fueron escasos los lanzamientos de nuevos modelos durante 2020, privilegiando las marcas premium el segmento de SUV. De esta manera, con solo tres marcas peleando por el premio, el BMW Serie 2 Gran Coupé se impuso con claridad al promediar en la categoría un puntaje de 8.16, superando así a los Bentley Flying Spur (7.94) y Continental GTC (7.91). Más atrás quedaron los Audi A6 (7.67) y A1 Sportback (7.55). La gran fortaleza del estilizado vehículo derivado del Serie 1, que toma el relevo del Volvo S60 como Mejor Auto Premium y que se convirtió en el sedán de entrada de la marca, estuvo en el ítem Seguridad, donde sumó un total de 8.44 puntos. Le siguió en orden de puntaje decreciente la evaluación en Producto, Tecnología y Valor. Entre las características que le permitieron quedarse con las preferencias de los periodistas y comunicadores, están la estirada silueta con puertas sin marco, la reinterpretación de los icónicos faros delanteros led y una gran parrilla de riñón conectada. A nivel motriz, arribó con tres opciones. La versión de entrada era el 218i, con un bloque 1.5 turbo de tres cilindros y 140 Hp, asociado a una caja manual de seis velocidades o una automática de siete velocidades y doble embrague; luego venía el 220d, con un bloque diésel 2.0 turbo de 190 Hp, con caja automática de ocho velocidades y cerraba como tope de línea la variante más radical y más deportiva, el M235i con un cuatro cilindros de 306 Hp, asociado a una transmisión automática de ocho marchas y tracción total inteligente. Para la firma bávara, un reconocimiento a su labor y al trabajo que realiza en distintas categorías, sumando así su segundo premio en Mejor Auto Premium desde que el BMW M4 se alzó con el galardón en 2015.

The WIAA Executive Board approved on Tuesday night the remainder of its 2021 high school sports calendar, moving traditional spring sports up to the second season, followed by winter sports to end the school year. Baseball, softball, golf, boys soccer, tennis and track and field seasons are set to begin March 15 and go until May 2. Basketball, bowling, cheerleading, dance/drill, gymnastics, wrestling and boys swim and dive are now scheduled to start April 26 and end June 13. “Based on the risk levels assigned to traditional winter activities compared to traditional spring activities, the Executive Board made the decision that those spring activities will have the opportunity to play much earlier than winter activities,” said WIAA Executive Director Mick Hoffman said in a press release. “The Board will continue to monitor the status of activities over the coming months to ensure that those traditional spring sports receive a chance to participate.” The move comes two weeks after the board moved traditional fall sports to a Feb. 1 start and designated it the first of three seven-week seasons in the wake of a new statewide reopening plan. Spring sports lost their 2020 seasons statewide due to the coronavirus outbreak. The WIAA gave leagues across the state the choice to form locally-specific schedules. Many leagues any have already done so, causing some leagues to move schools around based on proximity. Some leagues, like the Greater Spokane League, held off on deciding on a structure for the second and third season until the WIAA decided how it would align the second and third seasons. The longer into February regions go without reaching Phase 2, the higher likelihood the calendar will be condensed into two seasons with sports overlapping — a scenario that the WIAA and many leagues hope to avoid (though the Metro League has already announced a two-season schedule). Most sports will be allowed to hold competitions in regions that reach Phase 2 of Governor Jay Inslee’s Healthy Washington reopening plan. Low-risk outdoor sports like cross country, golf and tennis can begin right away in Phase 1. Regions must show a 10 percent decrease trend in COVID-19 case rates, a 10 percent decrease in COVID-19-related hospitalizations, a lower than 10 percent positivity rate and an ICU occupancy rate lower than 90 percent in order to move to Phase 2. As of Jan. 15, no counties reached Phase 2. Metrics are reassessed by state health officials every Friday. While high school sports have returned in some form in most states across the country, they have been sidelined in Washington since the outset of the pandemic last March. Here is the risk level for each sport, as determined by the state department of health:

Life for many during the pandemic has been quite an ordeal. Those of us lucky enough to have a roof over our head can only wonder how tough life must be for the many people who, for a variety of reasons, find themselves homeless and on the streets at this time.

Last Saturday, Pakistan’s Hazaras finally ended a protest and agreed to bury the bodies of 11 coal miners from the community killed by the Islamic State on January 3. The stir came to an end only after Prime Minister Imran Khan visited the mourners in Quetta and promised compensation for the dead. However, persecution of the Shiite Hazaras is nothing new in Pakistan or neighbouring Afghanistan. They have been frequently targeted by Taliban and Islamic State militants and other Sunni Muslim militant groups in both countries. James B. Minahan, in his book Ethnic Groups of North, East, and Central Asia: An Encyclopedia (2014), says this targeting might have started around the 18th century. Around 1773, the mountainous region of Hazarajat in modern-day central Afghanistan was annexed and made a part of the territories of Afghan Empire under Pashtun ruler Ahmad Shah Durrani. The Sunni Muslim majority under the Pashtun ruler resulted in further marginilisation of the Shiite Hazara community, to the extent that in the 18th and 19th century, they were forced to leave fertile lowlands in central Afghanistan and make the dry, arid mountainous landscape their new home. Research indicates that their unique identity, ethnicity and religion always made the Hazaras stand out among the other communities. Hazaras speak Hazaragi, which is close to Dari Persian, the official language of modern-day Afghanistan. The community also shares physical similarities with the Mongols and their speech, specific terms and phrases, reflect strong Central Asian Turkic influences, setting them apart from their neighbours in Pakistan and other communities within Afghanistan. According to Minahan’s research, in the 19th century, the Hazara community constituted approximately 67 per cent of Afghanistan’s total po[CENSORED]tion. Since then, primarily due to violence, oppression and targeted massacres, that number has come down to a little as 10 to 20 per cent of the po[CENSORED]tion now. But Minahan explains that these figures are only estimates due to a lack of census statisticsThe attacks reached a crescendo in 2013, when three separate bombings killed more than 200 people in Hazara neighbourhoods of Quetta. In the aftermath of this incident, the Shia community in Pakistan had erupted in anger over the Pakistani government’s lack of protection of the city and had refused to bury the dead till the government made steps to improve security.

The Lady Vols (8-1) picked up their first two wins of conference play last week including a narrow victory against LSU (4-6) decided by one point, 64-63. Kellie Harper’s team had upset No. 13 Arkansas (10-4) to open Southeastern Conference play, 88-73, on Jan. 7 in Knoxville. Meanwhile, the No. 9 men’s basketball team improved to 9-1 on the season following a 79-74 win against Arkansas at home and a 68-54 victory against Texas A&M on the road. Sophomore guard Santiago Vescovi led the way for the Vols (9-1) in the latter matchup, sinking six 3-pointers on his way to 23 total points, a career high. As basketball seasons heat up this winter, Rocky Top Insider takes a look back at moments this week in UT sports history: Advertisement - Continue Reading Below Rick Barnes and the Vols will face Vanderbilt tomorrow night to continue SEC play in search of their 10th win. In 2004, Tennessee beat the in-state rivals from Nashville on a January night in Knoxville. The Vols entered the matchup with a 9-2 record, 1-1 in conference play. By game’s end, their record stood a 10-2 with a second conference win, 76-66, against the Commodores. Five-point margins decided both the first and second halves. Tennessee led 31-26 at halftime before adding 45 more points to clinch the win, as Vanderbilt only picked up 40. The Vols got off to a hot start with two offensive rebounds in the first minute. They crashed the boards, outrebounding Vandy 44-30. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below Forward Brandon Crump accounted for 20 of Tennessee’s points, as did guard Scooter McFadgon. Crump had earned Edamerica Athlete of the Month honors just three days prior following a breakout run in December. He averaged 18.8 points and 7.2 rebounds per game while leading the orange and white to a 5-1 record in the last month of 2003. The lone loss to Nebraska remained memorable for the junior, however, as he picked up a career-high 25 points in the game. Tennessee struggled in the latter half of the 2003-04 season. Alabama dominated the men in orange and white in the first round of the SEC Tournament, 84-49, before the Vols faced elimination in the first round of the NIT. They fell to George Mason by three points, 58-55, to end the season. After starting 10-2, the Vols finished 17-14 with an abysmal road record of 1-10. They continued to struggle the following season with a losing 16-17 record, though they did improve to 3-11 on the road. The 2020 -21 team faces the Commodores tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. as a result of COVID-19 scheduling adjustments following positive tests, contact tracing and quarantines in the South Carolina and Missouri programs. The broadcast will air on ESPN 2. The Vols will face the same Vanderbilt team again this Saturday in Knoxville at 6:00 p.m. That game will air on SEC Network. Long before the Vols beat the Dores, 93 years before to be exact, Tennessee’s men’s basketball program picked up a regional win against Maryville. The first win of the 1911 season came 110 years ago this week as the Vols outscored the team from just along the road, 36-28. Program play began around 1909 with a 2-5 season from Jan. 22 to Feb. 4 of that year. The Vols earned a 7-8 record during the 1909-10 season, losing to perennial powerhouse Kentucky, 20-5, in an early matchup. They didn’t fare much better in the 1910-11 season with a record of 7-9. That season, Tennessee faced both Duke and North Carolina. The Vols lost to Duke, 48-25, before a loss to North Carolina the next day, 40-21, as they visited the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill triangle area. The Vols improved the following season with a 5-5 season before their first winning season in 1912-13. The 1912-13 team won nine of 14 games, though they lost to eventual conference rival Georgia twice, 52-22 and 38-13 on Jan. 17 and Feb. 6, respectively. The 1913-14 season, however, gave the program one of its best winning percentages with a 15-2 overall record (0.882). Tennessee remained perfect at home and lost two games on the road, both losses to Kentucky (20-14 and 20-18). The Vols currently hold a 0.900 win percentage for the 2020-21 season. They will hope to avoid the same fate as the 1914 team: consecutive losses to the same opponent in one week to spoil the record. Jan. 14, 1989 A 67-59 loss to Auburn on Jan. 6, 1989, stung for Pat Summitt and her Lady Vol team. The game marked their first loss of the season after staring 11-0. Following a 30+ point win against Stetson, the Lady Vols set out to prove their prowess against the SEC West once again, this time facing Ole Miss at home. A seven-point decision ended in Tennessee’s favor as the Lady Vols downed Ole Miss, 68-61. Two days later, they would defeat the other Mississippi team –Mississippi State – by a final score of 79-54. The win against Ole Miss seemed to reignite some passion for the Lady Vols as they realized close games remained a possibility on their slate if they failed to give their all for Tennessee. Just one week later, they beat Kentucky by 44 points, hanging 101 on the border state team. They continued down the conference slate with an 80-60 win against Vanderbilt and 78-64 win against Georgia to close out the first month of 1989. However, only one SEC team mattered: Auburn. Summitt’s team avenged their first loss in two key games: the SEC Tournament Championship and the NCAA title game. The Lady Vols beat the Tigers, 66-51, to win the conference tournament title before the national title victory. Tennessee won by a final score of 76-60 to clinch its second of eight program national championships on April 2, 1989. The Lady Vols held a 35-2 record during the 1988-89 season with the second loss coming against Texas on Jan. 31. Traveling to Austin for the game, Tennessee fell by only two points, 69-67. Both season losses came on the road. However, following the second defeat, the Lady Vols rode a 17-game win streak. The 2020-21 Lady Vols face Georgia this Jan. 14 (Thursday) at 6:30 p.m. in Knoxville. The game will be televised on SEC Network.

A MUM-OF-EIGHT has been forced to leave her children at home after being rushed to hospital in an ambulance after falling ‘extremely ill’ with Covid-19. Marie Buchan, 39, from Birmingham, was admitted to hospital late on Saturday night as her condition deteriorated after falling ill five days ago. ⚠️ Read our coronavirus live blog for the latest news & updates Marie had previously been forced to self-isolate by locking herself in her bedroom while her eight kids, aged six to 18, fended for themselves. She lost her sense of taste and smell and developed a cough but has also been vomiting and suffering nose bleeds for the past week. On Saturday night Marie, 39, was rushed to hospital after her daughter raised the alarm via 111. Marie - nicknamed 'Octomum' - lives with Tia, 18, Leah, 17, Latoya, 15, Joshua, 14, Alisha, 12, Mikayla, 11, Amelia, eight, and seven-year-old Olivia. Her spokesman Barry Tomes said: "Marie has been really suffering with Covid-19. "She had locked herself in her bedroom to protect her kids who are in the house but on Saturday night she went down hill. "Her daughter was really worried so called an ambulance and paramedics wanted to take her to hospital but she refused because she didn't want to leave her kids. "Later on her condition got worse so an ambulance came and took her to hospital where she is now on a drip." The former lap-dancer reportedly receives £500 in benefits every week to run her four-bed household - about £26,000 a year. Before she was rushed to hospital, the single mum said she was going through "a complete nightmare". Speaking from her home, she said: "I feel absolutely awful. "I started getting a sore throat and was breathless last Saturday but I didn't think it was Covid at first. "As a precaution I rang my doctor who advised me to get a test which I did on the Monday and it came back positive. "Since then I've been isolating in my bedroom upstairs. Over the last few days I have gradually got worse and worse. "As well as the sore throat and breathlessness I've had awful coughing fits but also had several nosebleeds. "My eldest daughter Tia is 18 but she's also self-isolating after getting symptoms. "My children are downstairs and it's horrible because I can hear the youngest one crying for me but I just can't risk any of them catching it so I have to stay in my bedroom. "The older children have really stepped up and I'm so proud of them. "They've been helping with everything with the house and the younger ones. "They bring me food upstairs and leave it outside my door. "The doctors have told me to isolate for ten days but that could be another ten days if I still have symptoms. "I have been speaking to track and trace a lot about my situation and I've been racking my brain trying to remember everyone I've been in contact with." Marie hit the headlines when she appeared on TV on the Channel 5 show Benefits Britain: Life On The Dole in 2016. On the show she claimed to work 21-hour days looking after her kids and had to rely on benefits to stay afloat. But Marie has caused controversy by appearing to use her state handouts to fund her lifestyle. Last year she saved up for a boob job through car boot sales and part-time work to cover the boob op rather than dip into her benefits. Before Christmas, she came under fire again after she planned to jet off to Spain because she "needed a break".

KAPALUA, Hawaii — Harris English once was considered a part of the future of American golf. He won a Nationwide Tour event while he was still at Georgia. He had two PGA Tour titles when he was 24. His demeanor was ideal for golf, never too bothered my much and steady with his emotions. That now seems like a long time, and it was. English had gone 192 starts on the PGA Tour over seven years since he last won, a drought that ended with a series of clutch shots that carried him to a playoff victory Sunday in the Sentry Tournament of Champions. - Advertisement - “It's awesome to get some validation,” English said. In some respects, it represents a restart to a career that could take him places he hasn't been. The victory took him to a career-best No. 17 in the world, and he doesn't want to stop there. “I'm still not satisfied with where I'm at in the game. There's still a lot more that I want to accomplish,” English said. “Hopefully, this is just the tip of the iceberg of me getting better and better, and hopefully having a chance to win a lot more tournaments.” This was not a victory out of nowhere at Kapalua. English began his turnaround after his lowest point in a two-year slump that cost him full status on the PGA Tour. His coach, Justin Parsons, told him he was on the right path and English proved it. Knowing he would have limited events, he did well enough in the fall of 2019 to build some momentum. During the three months the PGA Tour was shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic, he worked just as hard and played money games at Sea Island to keep sharp. “I felt like you could use the quarantine period where we didn't play golf, you could either hang out and relax or you could use that time to get better,” he said. "I love trying to get better because I know there’s guys out here that work just as hard or harder than I do at this game. And those are the guys that I want to compete with, those are the guys that I want to beat out here on tour. The confidence began to return. He kept getting into contention. And when the opportunity showed itself on Kapalua, he delivered. English hit 8-iron into a strong wind to 2 feet for birdie on the 13th, part of a stretch in which he made four birdies in five holes to catch up to Joaquin Niemann. Trailing by one shot on the par-5 18th, he drilled a 3-iron from 268 yards off a downhill lie to 10 feet. He missed the eagle putt for the win, and then made birdie on the 18th in a playoff to win. “It took a little while to kind of get rid of that scar tissue a little bit,” English said. “But I feel like I've been there for a while and I've been really close. Sunday is a day I look forward to, and I had a good feeling about today.” English piled up 10 finishes in the top 10 after losing his full card, including fourth place in the U.S. Open. Now he is at No. 2 in the FedEx Cup as the year is starting. English was playing at Bay Hill in 2014, fresh off his two-win year, when Graeme McDowell watched him from behind the 17th green. “This is a good one here,” McDowell said. “We're going to be seeing him in the Ryder Cup.” English didn't quite finish the year strongly and ended 16th in the standing. No praise is greater than from peers, especially in a Ryder Cup year. Now, he has a chance to think about it again. “My goal really this year is to play on the Ryder Cup team,” he said. "Obviously, winning was a goal, but I didn't want to force it. I know how hard it is to win out here on the PGA Tour and I knew that if I kept giving myself opportunities to pull it off that I could do it. “I love being in that situation coming down the last nine holes and knowing what you have to do," English said. “And it was a lot of fun today. The shot I hit into 18 was awesome. I can really feed off that for years to come, and being able to do stuff like that when you're under the gun is so much fun to do.” The key to his turnaround was to stop searching for perfect, and trying to be a player he wasn't. Instead of getting caught up in the skill set of Dustin Johnson or Rory McIlroy, he realized what he had was good enough. The next stop is a short flight to Oahu for the Sony Open, where English can join Ernie Els (2003) and Justin Thomas (2017) as the only players to sweep the Hawaii Swing.
