The last thing a footballer might expect to be berated for on international duty is the colour of his hair, but that’s exactly the fate that’s befallen Manchester City’s Riyad Mahrez and West Ham United’s Said Benrahma.

The pair turned up to play in Algeria’s matches, only to be brought back down to earth by manager, Djamel Belmadi, according to Dzair Daily cited by the Daily Star.

It’s said that Belmadi wanted both to “sport a respectable style without frills” and “a look that reflects the traditions and customs of Algerian society,” after they arrived with bleached blond locks

Frankly, the whole scenario is a bit of a nonsense and reminiscent of the time Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted that he didn’t sign a player simply because he had a mohican haircut.

Clearly, there needs to be respect between manager and players, however, making a player dye their hair isn’t going to make them play any better.

? “I once went to see a player and as he walked out of the dressing room, he had a Mohican (hairstyle). I said to my scout ‘nah let’s go home’, not interested. That was a very short scouting trip.”

Moreover, it could drive an unnecessary wedge in the relationship which, internationally speaking, could have a detrimental effect.

On this occasion both Mahrez and Benrahma acceded to their manager’s wishes in any event.

HISTORY

The Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD) owns Pleasant Hill Lake. The lake was constructed in 1938 by damming the Clear Fork Branch of the Mohican River. The lake was originally constructed primarily for flood control in the Muskingum River watershed.

Today, recreation is one of the biggest public benefits. The ODNR Division of Wildlife manages the lake under agreement to provide public fishing and hunting.

The Clear Fork River empties into the western end of the lake. This western end of the lake is shallow with most of the area under less than 10 feet of water. The middle section of the lake gradually slopes to a depth of 20 feet. At that point…

LOUDONVILLE – Flxible Owners International, a group that supports Flexible bus enthusiasts around the world, had a Flxible Bus Rally in Loudonville that included a bus rally on Saturday, part of a five-day event.  

Saturday’s bus parade included a disc jockey and announcer, public voting for bus awards, 50/50 raffle and a two-hour viewing of the Flxible buses in downtown Loudonville. The buses were parked in the middle of Main Street while the street was blocked off during this time.

Flxible was founded by Hugo Young in Loudonville in 1912 as a manufacturer of motorcycle side cars, and closed in 1996. Bus manufacture started there in the 1920s. After the Flxible closure, the plant was used as a bus parts manufacturer and rehabilitation center by MCI Inc. until 2015.

Since 1990, the Flxible Bus Rally in Loudonville has usually taken place every two years. And since 1992, it was taken place at Mohican Adventures Campground.

The rally and parade were open to all Flxible bus conversions, RVs and campers. Owners weren’t required to allow the public to enter their buses during the time in downtown Loudonville on Saturday but were encouraged to let folks take a step inside their vehicles. And an announcer gave narratives of each bus in the parade.

A number of events besides the bus parade were scheduled for Flexible Owners International members during the six days of the event that started Wednesday and wrapped up Sunday, including a swap meet, panel discussion and live musical entertainment.

GIANFRANCO CALLIGARICH’S Last Summer in the City is a slim masterpiece about a young man who moves to Rome, fails at journalism, fails at love, and ultimately fails at life. Leo Gazzara counts among literature’s great losers, an unforgettable forgettable, and Last Summer is one of those delicious minor works, enmeshed in a particular place and a particular time, that only rarely escape the confines of a national literature and onto the commercial lists of varsity American publishers. FSG’s new edition, beautifully translated by Howard Curtis, is just one of a number of new translations of Calligarich currently in the works. This new rediscovery, bigger than any before, marks the writer’s definitive entrance onto the stage of world literature.

Despite its initial success upon publication (at Natalia Ginzburg’s insistence) in 1973, Calligarich’s novel has long traveled under the radar as a cult classic, and it’s easy to see why. It’s the opposite of a winner — in fact, the book is about a total loser, a near-perfect example of that Italian type, the sfigato. Leo, in that uncomfortable territory around his 30th year, moves from his native Milan down to Rome. There he works for a “medical-literary” paper until its aristocratic patron goes bankrupt, and Leo’s meetings with the old count lose their remaining veneer of professionalism and become roving conversations about the frivolous things — horses and romance and social hijinks — that still delight the titled gentry. Leo is himself a self-styled aristocrat, though born into the wrong class: when asked where he would like to have been born, he replies, “In Vienna before the end of the empire.” He turns down a new job writing copy for a pharmaceutical trade paper because it sounds like too much work. He decides to wait for something else, “[l]ike an aristocrat…

The canoe draws the eye at the center of the room, a long tapering organic shape ribbed like a whale, with the warm patina of old wood. Above it, the shape of a wave crosses a banner in a web of blue lines — like a three-dimensional digital model, or a weaving.

Past and future come together in Mu-he-con-ne-ok, the Mohican people, people of the waters that are never still, at the Berkshire Museum. Come in and stand quietly, and you will hear their stories in their own voices.

From the Stockbridge-Munsee Nation, Eunice Stick and Sheila Powless, Dorothy and Bruce Davids, Betty Putnam Scheil and Clarence Chicks talk about their experiences over the generations. They talk about young people leaving to work in the city, the cost of education and the resources it can bring — the challenges of learning forestry and preserving birch trees or running for office within the Tribal Council.

PERRYSVILLE — The Mohican Fire Tower is 80-feet tall and was constructed in 1934.

At the time it was built, the Mohican Fire Tower had an average visibility of 10 miles in all directions. This allowed the towerman to keep an eye on approximately 200,000 acres of land.

Fire towers were once crucial to spotting forest fires.

Ohio Department of Natural Resources

Beginning in the 1920s and 1930s, fire wardens and foresters used wildfire lookout towers to spot blazes on Ohio lands. Ohio’s fire towers were staffed by lookouts and equipped with binoculars, maps, a radio, telephone, and an alidade – a device used to pinpoint a wildfire location.

Aerial surveillance of wildfires by aircraft began in the 1940s, and Ohio’s fire towers were slowly phased out. The last tower was closed in 1978.

While monitoring from fire towers is a thing of the past, they remain a proud symbol of forest conservation and a monument to the people who worked to preserve our natural resources.

When weather conditions allow, visitors can climb the stairs of the tower at their own risk. From the top of the tower, the Mohican Fire Tower provides a magnificent 360-degree view of the surrounding forests and hills.
