#Sydney Halliday

[yyako]

What's one character you've always wanted to play in a game but can never find the right game to fit into?

That would be Michael Halliday! He's actually Sydney from my last post's dad and an angel himself, albeit not a biblically accurate one. He works as an ER doctor, but he's almost entirely checked out on his interpersonal relationships. Sydney was an accident resulting from a one night stand that Michael doesn't even know about.

I think he'd work really well in an Urban Shadows game, but no playbook is really perfect for him and the settings we've been going for don't really have room for Sad Doctor. There is an official angel playbook for 2e in the works, so maybe I'll get a chance to be kinda the worst little blorbo one day.

Watched the NCIS: New Orleans episodes with Sydney Halliday and now I can’t help but think of a Debris role reversal or background reversal.

Looking Forward to the SRF Carolina International & H. T.: Stacked 4*S Entry List Promises Full Slate of Action

Pfun, a veteran campaigner for Faudree, may take second in the 4*S at Carolina in 2023. Tilly Berendt’s image.

The 2024 Makers ‘ Run Farm Carolina International, which will take place at the Carolina Horse Park on March 14- 17, is sure to be an interesting year for the 37 horses and horse groups that are now competing in the CCI4*- S.

The Pan American Games group, which includes Sydney Elliott and QC Diamantaire, Liz Halliday and Miks Master C, Sharon White and Claus 63, and Caroline Pamukcu and HSH Blake, will all start powerful. Therefore, Caroline and HSH Blake will be a match to watch out for as they take the gold at the Pan Ams with a final tally of 30.8 %.

With four rides in the 4*, Liz will undoubtedly have a full plate: Cooley Moonshine ( owned by Ocala Horse Properties ), Cooley Quicksilver ( owned by the Monster Partnership and Ocala Horse Properties ), Cooley Nutcracker ( owned by the Nutcracker Syndicate and Ocala Horse Properties ), and of course Miks Master C ( owned by Ocala Horse Properties and Debbie Palmer ). Liz and her animals will always be the ones to keep your eye on, as often.

For the 4*, Andrew McConnon, who won this year’s Elizabeth Broussard International Developing Rider Grant, will be bringing two bolts: Ferrie’s Cello and Wakita 54.

Lauren Nicholson and Ms. Mars ‘ Landmark’s Jungle’s Golden as well as Will Coleman and Diabolo, owned by the Diabolo Group, are another comments that are likely to be competitive. Two pretty exciting horses, Possante and Quasi Cool, both coming off of Grand- Prix Eventing, may also engage for Phillip Dutton.

FE Lifestyle, which Jennie Brannigan rode, was originally bred to be a present sweater, but now finds success in eventing under Jennie’s guidance. Last year,” Foxy” placed 12th at Burghley, leading Jennie to take home the highest-placed Burghley first-timer. During this contest, this piece will be challenging to keep up with!

High Tide and Rachel Lawson will be another piece to watch out for because they have successfully navigated some ups and downs to this point. Their origin story makes them a pair you ca n’t miss because they are Rachel’s first OTTB.

Fernhill Zoro joins US equine U25 Emerging Athletes Cassie Sanger. She’ll also be taking part in the USEF Futures Challenge, and you can find out more about that thrilling race that’s taking place alongside the 4*S around.

Corture, ridden by Briggs Surratt, will be a small but powerful some to watch out for. Elisa Wallace’s Holsteiner combination horse has only 14.2 hands!

View this passage record in its entirety. This will not be an event you want to miss, as we’re getting our Olympic year underway, regardless of whether you’ll be watching in person or from home ( click here to access the live stream on Horse &amp, Country ).

Eventing Nation is pleased to have Carolina International on the hit team. Click here to fill out the token request form if you want to attend this year’s function as a member of the internet.

Here’s to more theatre in 2020!!

[lecameleontv]

L’acteur belge Patrick Bauchau (1938) a été révélé grâce à la Nouvelle Vague française des années 60′, dont la réputation lui a permis une carrière européenne et internationale.

Où voir l’acteur Patrick Bauchau cette semaine à la TV française ?

Page Facebook - 

L’acteur a fait ses études à Oxford et pendant ses études de philologie, joue son 1er rôle en dilettante dans le film d’auteur  La Collectionneuse. Il a ensuite tourné avec les plus grands réalisateurs, Eric Rhomer, Wim Wenders, Andrzej Zulawski ..., aux côtés de têtes d’affiche les plus connues de l’époque : Nathalie Baye, Johnny Hallyday, Valerie Kaprisky, Lambert Wilson  ... Il a également joué dans de nombreuses langues, qu’il maîtrise (italien, portugais, espagnol, anglais, français...) et a pu tester tous les styles de film : auteur, horreur, populaire, érotique...

En hommage à son père, Henri Bauchau, thérapeute et écrivain célèbre en Belgique, membre de l’Académie royale de Belgique, commandeur de l’Ordre des Arts et Lettres, chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur et officier de l’Ordre de la Couronne de Belgique, l’acteur interprète souvent des médecins dans ses films. En Belgique, un prix littéraire et un fonds portent son nom. Ce dernier a également vécu longtemps à Louveciennes (Yvelines, France) là où le grand-père des soeurs Bardot avec un chalet. En réalité l’ancien pavillon de la Norvège de l’Exposition Universelle de 1901 déplacé à Louveciennes.

Il a présenté le metteur en scène et réalisateur allemand Douglas Sirk, dont il aime beaucoup les films, à Jon Halliday.   

En 1984 il participe au 37ème Festival du film de Cannes (France) où son film Choose Me est présenté.  

Son 1er projet américain s’est fait avec l’épisode de la série Columbo - Portrait d’un Assassin, dont le tournage a duré 24 jours.

Pour la série Le Caméléon (V.O. : The Pretender), l’acteur n’a besoin que de tourner 2 jours par semaine, ce qui lui laisse le temps de jardiner, une autre de ses passions. De son expérience sur la série Le Caméléon, il a conservé une amitié très forte avec l’acteur Jon Gries, qui ont plusieurs films en commun. A noter également que l’acteur avait déjà croisé brièvement l’acteur Richard Marcus en 1993 sur le film Les Soldats de l’Espérance, et a fait des clins d’oeil dans les projets post-Caméléon de certains de ses anciens camarades : Agence Matrix, Burn Notice...

Sur un plan personnel, il a épousé en 1962 Marie Jeanne Bardot, dite Mijanou, la soeur de Brigitte Bardot, également actrice lorsqu’elle était jeune et qui se sont retrouvés sur le film La Collectionneuse. Pour en savoir plus sur les jeunes années des soeurs Bardot : série TV Bardot (France 2).

Ensemble, ils ont eu une fille : Camille.

Après les événements de 1968, l’acteur fait une pause et se consacre à d’autres passions. Il devient ainsi charpentier-menuisier pendant que sa femme ouvre une entreprise de décoration d’intérieur : “Gain de place”.

Dans les années 70, ils quittent la France pour les Etats-Unis et créent une entreprise de meuble, aujourd’hui réputée, Espace Loggia. Mijanou Bardot change définitivement et complètement de carrière, Patrick Bauchau la reprendra tout en consacrant du temps à ses multiples autres passions, dont le travail du bois. Régulièrement, il alterne les tournages américains et européens, et conserve une maison familiale à Louveciennes, en Ile-de-France, qui est l’ancien Pavillon de la Finlande de l’Exposition Universelle de 1889. Lorsqu’ils résident à Hollywood ou à Los Angeles, ce sont 2 amis peintres qui y résident.

Alias Dr Sydney  dans la série Le Caméléon. Alias le Professeur Ernst Lodz dans La Caravane de l’Etrange avec Jon Gries  Alias le Général de Lestrade dans Mystère Alias ... dans Kindred : Le Clan des Maudits Alias André Valeur dans Mont-Royal

New Bin wines reflect the history at Huntington Estate

In 1969 Bob and Wendy Roberts planted vines in Mudgee. A young Sydney lawyer, Bob Roberts was part of the infamous ‘Bulletin Place’ crowd that was to transform the Australian Wine Industry.

Two of the most prominent members of this group were James Halliday and the late, great Len Evans. The group enjoyed wine from all parts of the world; the ‘wine bug’ had gripped most of them and many soon established vineyards, mostly in the Hunter Valley.

Unlike Len, James and other members of the group though, Bob decided that Mudgee presented a better climate for his favoured wine styles. He adored the classic reds from French regions such as Bordeaux, the Rhone Valley and Burgundy.

In 1969 he established Huntington Estate on the site of an old peach orchard and began his egalitarian mission to make some of Australia's best wines at affordable prices.

Bob launched his wines with a focus on red wines that would past the test of time. Many of these wines were labelled with their relevant Bin numbers; many held a prefix of MB (medium bodied), FB (full bodied) or LB (light).

50 years on, with a nod to these early wines, two new Bin range wines have been released. These include the 2015 Huntington Estate ‘Bin 25’ Cabernet Sauvignon ($32) and 2015 Huntington Estate ‘Bin 18‘ Shiraz ($32).

The 2015 vintage in Mudgee was a return to a more ‘normal’ vintage, being warm but not too hot, dry but not drought and welcome, timely rain. Cooler evenings allowed a perfect ripening period, and ensured that the Huntington Estate winemaking team could harvest the fruit when they chose, as opposed to being dictated by weather.

“Our Bin wines are small parcels of wine that offer an interesting difference from our core range of wines,” explained winemaker Tim Stevens. “There were a couple of barrels that I couldn’t blend away, and so bottled separately as a ‘Bin’ wine. These are exciting wines that show the terroir of a single vineyard block, or even a couple of rows of the vineyard.”

Pricing and Distribution:

The Huntington Estate wines are available from the Huntington Estate Cellar Door and online via huntingtonestate.com.au

2015 Huntington Estate ‘Bin 25’ Cabernet Sauvignon (Mudgee, NSW) $32.00

2015 Huntington Estate ‘Bin 18’ Shiraz (Mudgee, NSW) $32.00

Huntington Estate winery 1973

Huntington Estate is one of Mudgee and NSW’s most respected winegrowers. Established 50 years ago, in 1969 by Bob and Wendy Roberts, the winery is an icon of the region.Current owners Tim and Nicky Stevens continue to run the business with five guiding principles; the wines are Estate grown, made & bottled; wines are built to age; reds are released at four to five years of age; the wine is only sold direct, and; substance over style.

Discourse and Me: A Short History

What is discourse analysis? And what does it have to do with multimedia? In my view, discourse analysis is a set of techniques for making connections between texts and their meanings. Originally formulated for the analysis of purely linguistic texts, discourse analysis methods have come to form the basis for analyzing “texts” that consist not just of words, but also of visual forms such as images and diagrams (static or animated), full-­‐ motion video, sound-­‐effects and music, and various interactive features.

There are a number of different intellectual traditions that contribute to discourse and multimedia analysis. I came to this field before it really had a name, because I wanted to understand how physicists came to think and talk and write the way we did, and it seemed to me that we learned these things mostly through verbal and non-­‐verbal communication with people who were already doing it. In the 1970s I was a student and junior researcher in theoretical physics, and it was pretty obvious that I was learning to frame and solve problems, to mobilize theory, and even to tell jokes like a physicist from sitting in classes, reading books, talking with other students and with physics faculty members, and watching the occasional video or display on a computer screen.

Would it be possible, I wondered, to videotape other students doing what I was doing and from the videos to figure out how the ideas and practices of physicists were being “transmitted” or learned? How would you analyze a videotape to achieve this?

As a theoretical physicist, I dealt mostly with text, mathematics, diagrams, and talk about them. I was less concerned about operating experimental apparatus. It seemed to me that most of what I was learning, I had to be learning from talk and writing (whether in books, articles, or just on the chalkboard), so I asked around among my friends whether linguistics or anthropology had anything useful to offer on this subject. By good luck I was pointed in the direction of the work of Michael Halliday, a British linguist who was interested in how we make meaning with words (Halliday, 1978). This was not the dominant focus in linguistics at the time, where most linguists were following Noam Chomsky’s lead and ignoring meaning in favor of purely formal analysis of grammatical structures.

I had also been reading the work of Lev Vygotsky, a Russian psychologist of the 1920s, who presented a theory of learning and intellectual development based on the hypothesis that people internalized the cultural meanings around them, largely through the medium of language (Vygotsky, 1963, 1978). And I had an interest in cultural anthropology, where there was a prevailing notion that people acquired the habits and values of their communities by active social participation. It was fashionable at that time to see all forms of cultural meaning as similar to language in that they formed semiotic systems (Levi-­‐ Strauss, 1963). What would we discover, I wondered, if we applied Halliday’s analysis of the relationship between wording and meaning to what students and teachers said in a physics class?

Extending this idea to the learning of science in general, I persuaded some people at the National Science Foundation in the US to fund a project to videotape science classes in secondary schools and a university, transcribe the talk in its contexts of classroom activity, and apply Halliday’s methods of analysis. The funding also allowed me to go to visit Halliday, who had recently moved to the University of Sydney in Australia, and also to go to England, where other people were engaged with similar efforts to do linguistically-­‐based discourse analysis (Sinclair & Coulthard, 1975).

It was an exciting time, because what we call discourse analysis today was just being created then (in the late 1970s and early 1980s). There was also at that time what later became known as the “linguistic turn” in the social sciences, led by people like the anthropologist Claude Levi-­‐Strauss and the historian and social theorist, Michel Foucault. Levi-­‐Strauss followed an essentially semiotic approach to the analysis of the texts of myths from indigenous peoples, mainly in South America, but had much wider influence with his philosophy of “structuralism” (Levi-­‐Strauss, 1963, 1969). Foucault had a somewhat less semiotic and more cultural-­‐historical approach to the analysis of archives of texts from earlier historical periods, supporting his inquiries into intellectual and institutional history (Foucault, 1969). Textual data was becoming the focus of important work in the human sciences.

Discourse analysis was shaped by the kinds of questions people were asking, and the kinds of uses to which it was being put. It was being developed as a tool for specific purposes, and its different variants reflect the variety of questions being posed. Levi-­‐Strauss wanted to know if the many different versions of the same myth across different indigenous groups could be seen as systematic variants of one another, rather as Chomsky was showing that different grammatical constructions could be transformed into one another by a set of simple rules (Chomsky, 1965). Foucault wanted to know what kinds of discourses were possible about a given topic in a given historical period, how they changed across the centuries, and how this was related to changing social institutions. Halliday wanted to know what kinds of meanings it was possible to make in the English language, and how different grammatical resources were deployed in different contexts to make those meanings.

Today it is easy to see how these different enterprises could support one another, but at the time it was just a leap of imagination. There were also other pieces to the puzzle. The Russian literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin and his linguist collaborator Valentin Voloshinov had developed in the 1920s and 1930s a theory of the inherent dialogism of texts, the sense in which anything said or written tended to situate its meanings in an implicit dialogue with other texts (Bakhtin, 1973; Voloshinov, 1929). This led to a general principle of intertextuality which connected the work of Levi-­‐Strauss and Foucault to the social semiotics of Halliday. Pierre Bourdieu was combining traditional quantitative sociology with an interest in the development of a social or cultural habitus, a mostly unconscious disposition to do and say things in particular ways that were like those of others in the same social position (Bourdieu, 1972). Basil Bernstein was connecting a kind of linguistic habitus to social class differences in learning in schools and primary socialization in families, and turning to Halliday’s linguistic methods to find supporting evidence (Bernstein, 1971).

In 1981, I found myself with a hundred pages of transcript of dialogue in science classrooms, a number of sociocultural frameworks for making sense of the general phenomena, and a set of specific linguistic tools for analyzing various aspects of the meanings being made. I had the overhead lights and the floor tiles, but the task of furnishing the room remained. What lies between the general theories of social learning (Vygotsky, Bernstein) and sociocultural structure (Levi-­‐Strauss, Foucault, Bourdieu) on the one hand, and the line by line, clause by clause analysis of the meaning of what was being said and done in these classrooms? Everything. Discourse analysis, and its multimedia successors, is about filling in the gap between macro-­‐social theory and micro-­‐social data. It is about construing patterns of various kinds at some intermediate levels between what Halliday called the “system” – what is possible – and the “instance” – what actually happened this time – in order to say something about what is typical. And not just what is typical in general, but what is typical for whom, when, and why (Lemke, 1995).

Most of Halliday’s work was a description of the grammar of English as a set of possibilities, linking each option that the grammatical resources of the language make available (such as singular or plural, past or future, transitive or intransitive, interrogative or imperative) to the kinds of meanings we make with it. But he did this within a larger theoretical framework that he and the group in Sydney called “social semiotics” (Halliday, 1978; Hodge & Kress, 1988). In brief it was a model of the relationship of language to society, and it held that meaning was made by language in use in a context of situation and a context of culture. Every different social setting evoked a different meaning potential, a different set of probabilities that particular meanings would be made, using particular resources from the grammar of the language.

This entailed a theory of which features of the setting were related to which kinds of meaning that could be made with the language. And it went both ways; that is, using language in part made or changed the nature of the setting, just as a given setting evoked the use of certain sorts of language. In this way it was possible to understand such notions as register (the kind of language typical for a particular kind of setting or activity) and genre (the forms of sequential discourse that people in a community use for particular purposes).

I had a setting, the classroom, and within it a variety of activities, from going over homework to explaining new concepts to having a dialogue about the best answer to a question. There were spoken genres, such as extended sequential dialogue in which teachers posed questions and evaluated student answers to them, and written genres, such as textbook chapters and student lab reports. But there was also a great deal more. There were patterns of semantic relationships among technical terms that were worded differently but remained essentially the same across textbooks, classroom dialogues, and tests or curriculum documents. There were typical rhetorical patterns of reasoning and logical justification that appeared again and again. There were regularities across different sessions and different classes in how lessons started and ended. The room began to fill with furniture (Lemke, 1990).

I had begun from an interest in seeing how the conceptual content of physics was embodied in the dialogue between teacher and student. Over the course of a few years of analysis of the data, I came to see that this was just one part of a much more complex social process, linked to such matters as power, control, authority, and respect in the social relationships of the classroom, and to wider beliefs and values about the nature and role of science in society. People were expressing feelings and evaluations that were inseparable from the process of learning. Students were learning not just facts and theories from science, but ways of behaving in classrooms, and beliefs and values about science, society, and themselves. The meanings being made in the classroom could often not be understood apart from other meanings and texts not present in the classroom. The learning process, and its stumbles, were also part of longer-­‐term developmental processes of students’ (and teachers’) identities, careers, and lives outside school.

The discourse of the science classroom was a window on much more than science education; it was a window on a society and a culture, just as social semiotics was claiming had to be the case for any use of language.

The importance of discourse analysis was not just as a tool to see what was happening in some event. It was a tool that could enable us to look far beyond the immediate events, whatever they were. Indeed you had to look beyond in order to understand what was in front of you.

Skeleton found on Coledale escarpment

Herbert Halliday. Picture: The Sydney Sun August 8 1925 THE skeletal remains of Herbert Halliday were found in the bush by several boys on the escarpment near Coledale in 1929. Halliday, who was 53 at the time, had gone missing on July 29 1925 while staying with his brother, Walter, at The Grove, Austinmer. The day after he left home Halliday was found asleep near a fire at the Coledale coke…

What It’s Like to Attend This Event

It’s difficult to imagine that Caroliȵa International will help us reach Kentucky or, this time, the Olympics. More down in this article, we’ve covered the implications of this weekend, but suffice it to say that the Horse Park often has a lively atmosphere. There is something here to suit everyone, whether you’re a beginner competition competing in the Novice or a seasoned 5* horse visiting Kentucky. The staff at this function has gone above and beyond to make this occasion truly attracts the local neighborhood, which is something I always enjoy seeing. It’s not something you ȿee everyday. If you have n’t had a chance to see this venue yet, never fear! Ariel Grald and I will be going on a stadium move later this month, so keep an eye out for that on Carolina International social media.

The Officers

This week’s officials and rider representatives are listed in whole here.

For the Yanmar America CCI4*- S division, the Ground Jury will consist of Robert Stevenson ( USA ) as president and Peter Gray ( CAN ). Beth Perkins has designed the rest of the cross country programs, while Ian Stark has once more created the cross country for the 4* and Advanced groups. Additionally, Marc Donovan makes a cross-departmental style disρlay jump.

The Submissions

There‘s a stacked line– up in the feature CCI4*- S class, which features a number of highlights – you’ll be able to get the entire US Pan Ams team in action, for example, with&nbsp, Sydney Elliott and QC Diamantaire, Liz Halliday and Miks Master C, Sharon White and Claus 63, and individual gold medallists&nbsp, Caroline Pamukcu and HSH Blake&nbsp, all coming forth to vie for the title here. Elsewhere in the 38- strong field, you’ll find&nbsp, Jennie Brannigan and&nbsp, FE Lifestyle, winners of the Best Foremost- Timer award at the 2023 Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials, &nbsp, Will Faudree with the evergreen&nbsp, Pfun and the exciting&nbsp, Mama’s Magic Way, with whom he finished in the top twenty at Burghley last year– and the top ten here. Ariel Grald’s 2024 season kicks off with his Carolina pipe-opener as a stepping-stone to delivering but another barnstorming clear around one of the world’s five-star courses, though which one will continue to be seen.

Fans of&nbsp, Liz Halliday&nbsp, will be kept nearly as busy as the extremely- competitive woman herself: she has four rides in this class, and beyond the aforementioned&nbsp, Miks Master C, she’ll even ride USEF CCI4*- L National Champion&nbsp, Cooley Nutcracker&nbsp, ( top ten in his last six Li runs ), &nbsp, Cooley Moonshine ( purveyor of a very wise 25. 6 in the CCI4*- L at Rebecca last year ), and&nbsp, Cooley Quicksilver&nbsp, ( he’s again, baby – and needs little introduction after&nbsp, that Luhmühlen top- five finish in 2022! ). Liz is happy that Ocala Horse Properties supports her.

Doug Payne‘s making a pretty good effort at rivalling Liz’s busy schedule: he’s got three entered in the feature class in ten- year- old&nbsp, Camarillo, enormously experienced five– star machine&nbsp, Quantum Leap ( that ‘s&nbsp, five CCI5* top tens under his belt, if you’re counting! ) and the exciting nine- year- old&nbsp, Quiberon, who comes forward for just his third- ever four- star.

It will ƀe a treat to watch some of the biggest fan-favorable horses and riders in the US spend a lot of time globe-trotting, and it will be a treat to watch them do įt again on home soįl. Those include&nbsp, Emily Hamel‘s seriously high- flying&nbsp, Corvett, who’s our EN top tip for a horse you want to catch over a fence for your Insta story ( trust us! ), &nbsp, Allie Knowles and her five- star ride&nbsp, Morswood, Meghan Donoghue&nbsp, and the much- loved ex- racehorse&nbsp, Palm Crescent, &nbsp, and young rider&nbsp, Cassie Sanger and her exceptionally cool&nbsp, Fernhill Zorro, who delivered a performance well beyond their years at last year’s Boekelo CCI4*- L.

There’s two exciting entries up to bat for&nbsp, Phillip Dutton: &nbsp, Quasi Cool, who has seven top- ten FEI finishes with Phillip under his belt, but who had much of 2023 off games, is back in action and ready to deliver a comeback king performance, while the up- and- coming talent&nbsp, Possante will make his hotly- anticipated stateside four- star debut, having finished fifth in his sole previous run at the level in the prestigious eight- and- nine- year- old class at Blenheim with Emily King aboard.

We’ll also see last year’s champion&nbsp, Will Coleman, though not on his 2023 winner Chin Tonic, but rather, his exciting Aussie import&nbsp, Diabolo, who comes to Carolina for his first FEI run of the year, off the back of two consecutive top- three finishes at the level at the end of last season.

The CCI4*- S might be Carolina’s crown jewel, but there’s plenty going on elsewhere in the divisions, too: there’s 36 classy combinations battling out in the CCI3*- S, 28 in the CCI2*- S, and 19 contesting the CCI1*, arguably the division all of us at Team EN are keenest to sneak a catch- ride in, especially after catching up with some of its competitors last year. Plus, with national classes from Novice through Advanced, you’ll never run out of combinations ƫo cheer on. Check out the entire entries right here.

The Implications

Although the Paris Olympics aɾe still a few months away and there are many important events on the calendar in the interim, Carolina’s CCI4*- S represents tⱨe first signifiçant step in the direction of booking a flight to France. A great run here will set horses and riders up for their spring long-format bids, whether that’s on the short list or, perhaps, a fight for the title at Kentucky, and the U. Ș. selectors will undoubtedly be watching these early-season performances closely.

Stories to Follow

OTTB lovers will have plenty of reasons to raise their voices on the sidelines, and one pair will be keen to keep an eye on closely in the CCI4*-S is Rachel Lawson and High Tide. As a busy source and producer, Rachel has α significant role in helping OTTBs find their persona and career after the track, and High Tidȩ is the horse that ignited that Iove affair for her. Find out more about their journey so far, and Rachel’s work with Thoroughbreds, in this profile.

Do pint-sized powerhouses scream in ყour heart? Then you’ll love watching&nbsp, Briggs Surratt and the teeny- weeny ( but do n’t tell her that! ) &nbsp, Corture, who tops out at just 14. 2hh but has yet to find a fence she thinks is too big for her. She was bred by fellow CCI4*- S competitor&nbsp, Elisa Wallace, who’ll be riding her 2022 USEF CCI3*- L National Champion, &nbsp, Renkum Corsair.

Speaking of breeding top sport horses, one rider who knows a thing or two about that is&nbsp, Alexa Thompson. She’s got two homebreds lined up to compete in the CCI3*- S –&nbsp, Parlez Clear&nbsp, and&nbsp, Clear Candidate&nbsp, — and while her CCI4*- S entry is n’t a homebred, there’s plenty of reason to lend her and&nbsp, Just To Be Clear your support. Alexa, who made her debut at the level in Europe last year while ωorking with France’s Maxime Lįvio, will be her first four-star in the US. Her debut at Strzegom in October saw her finish seventh in a hot field, beating some guy called …hang on, let us check our notes…Michael Jung? IDK, maybe you’ve heard of him.

We’ve also been informed that none other than Ian Stark himself will be competing this weekend in the Lumbee River EMC Festival Pro- Am Challenge, a friendly competition between professional and amateur riders. Carσline Pamukcu, α 5-year-old Irish Sport Horse gelding who is a new addition to the program and ready to tackle the Open Ƭraining level with Ian riding, has lent him a horse. Do n’t worry, we’ll be doing plenty of documenting for this! Ian enjoys a little kick in the arm, and he’s not the first ƫime he’s done it. He competed with HSH Best Kept Secret at the Maryland 5 Star Championships in 2022.

Sandbar

Content warnings: Language. Mentions of getting alcoholic drinks.

Notes: Part 2 of this crossover idea I had. Tagging @hiriaeth and @papersergeant-pencilsoldier if interested. May be continued. Here is Part 1.

After seeing him at her bar at night on a weekly basis, it was something new for Sydney to encounter Jay during the daytime.

She was running along one of Venice’s footpaths one morning when she noticed someone working out on the sand nearby. She slowed to jogging in place as she recognized Jay by several of his features—tattoos, hair, profile, build. Her military training had enforced her natural penchant for remembering people and faces, and she had no doubt that it was Kulina she saw doing exercises that the average man could only dream about. She debated saying something to get his attention but decided to continue her run instead.

Speeding up, she ran past the fighter, trying to drown out the small voice in her head that said she was scared. Sydney Halliday was not scared. She just…wasn’t looking to get involved with anyone.

Unfortunately for her, she hadn’t learned that Jay could turn up like a bad penny.

***

As she circled around for another lap, she saw a shadow looming on the pavement, another runner approaching her from behind.

“Well, if it isn’t Ms. Halliday,” Jay called, slowing a little to jog beside her. “I didn’t know you liked to run.”

“There are a lot of things you don’t know about me,” she huffed out. “And how did you learn my name?”

“That is very true,” he agreed, ignoring her question. He jerked his head to their left, in the direction of the sand and the waves of the Pacific beyond. “Want to race?”

That interested Sydney. She was a sucker for competition, going back to her school days. Without saying a word, she veered left onto the beach, and Jay soon found himself having to sprint to try to outpace her.

It was a close race, but she touched the wet sand a step before he did. She raised her arms in victory, laughing, and he shook his head.

“What’s next?” she challenged.

“Whatever your favorite thing to eat is,” he replied. “I’ll buy you lunch for that win.” He paused, and then added, “As long as it’s under ten dollars.”

“Gee, thanks,” she said sarcastically. She began to walk back the way they had come, and when Jay didn’t follow, she paused and looked back over her shoulder. “Coming?”

***

They settled on a taco truck and ate their meal while sitting on a bench on the pier overlooking the water.

“Not my favorite food,” she admitted, “but I like them.”

“These are in my top three, next to burritos and pizza.” He folded up one of his soft tortillas and put an entire taco into his mouth, making her roll her eyes.

“Has anyone ever called you a pig?”

He nodded emphatically. “Yes, they have. I think you and my friend Lisa would get along. She works out of Navy Street when she’s not busy closing deals elsewhere. You should come by.”

“I’m not interested in MMA.”

“No, to meet Lisa.” He popped open his can of soda and took a drink. “If you don’t mind me saying, you look like you could use a friend.”

“I have plenty of friends.” Back home, she thought, thinking of Dwayne and New Orleans. That small voice piped up again. And what about Jay?

As if he had heard her thoughts, Kulina added, “I mean, besides me.”

***

Sydney decided to visit Navy Street on a Wednesday afternoon. She walked in, not sure what to expect, and blinked at the slender woman dressed in revealing workout clothes at the reception counter.

“Welcome to Navy Street. Can I help you?” the blonde asked. Her overly cheery manner irritated the veteran.

“I’m here to see Lisa,” Sydney said. “Is she here?”

“Do you have an appointment?”

“No.”

“Oh. Are you…old friends?”

“No,” Sydney repeated. “But,” she added, “Jay sent me.”

That seemed to do the trick, and, she admitted to herself, it was fun to say. The receptionist’s brow cleared, and her smile returned. “Just a moment.” She walked into the gym’s interior, heading for a back office.

Sydney peered around at the gym’s wide-open space, the sounds of men and women sparring, exercising, grunting, and yelling all mingling together in the cavernous space. It reminded her a bit of her military training camp. She was a little relieved to not see Jay anywhere.

She watched the perky receptionist emerge from the office with an older, golden-haired woman in tow. When they reached Sydney, the newcomer extended her hand.

“I’m Lisa Prince,” she greeted.

“Hi, I’m Sydney.” They shook hands.

“I understand you know Jay?”

“A little. I’m relatively new in town, and he thought we should meet”

“Okay. Well, I can give you a few minutes. Would you like to step into my office?”

Sydney slowly shook her head. Something felt off. “I thought we might get a drink or something.” She checked her watch. “Happy hour starts soon.”

“Happy—? Oh. I thought you were here to interview. I thought Jay had scouted you to be a fight instructor here.”

Sydney smiled politely. “He never mentioned that to me, but I already have a job.”

A loud, metallic bang and rattling echoed through the gym, making people stop and look up in the direction of the noise.

“Excuse me,” Lisa said quickly, hurrying off in the direction of the sound. After a moment, Sydney followed, her instincts and training kicking in.

Lisa led her to a locker room, where one man’s back was pressed against a row of lockers, his neck held in a stranglehold.

Sydney felt her heart leap into her throat. The aggressor was none other than Jay.

“Hey! Let him go, Jay!” Lisa shouted, and, slowly, Kulina released his hold on the other man, who looked to be a few inches taller and a few pounds heavier in muscle than him. He was shirtless, and the tattooed words “The Destroyer” were plainly visible on his chest.

The two men parted, and while the bigger guy slunk off to the showers, Jay turned away, the storm in his eyes being replaced by shame when he saw who Lisa was with.

“Hey,” he said to Sydney. “I didn’t think you’d show up here.”

“Jay, go to my office. Sydney, here’s my card. Give me a call. We’ll grab a drink or something.”

Halliday blinked at the small white card being thrust in her direction. She took it with a nod, and mumbled a “Thanks” as she ducked past Lisa to leave the locker room.

Once she was gone, Jay slammed his palm on the nearest locker, making it rattle again.

“What the hell are you doing, Jay? What was that with you and Ryan?”

He wheeled around to face her and grabbed at his head, clutching his hair in his hands in helpless frustration.

“I’ll see you in a minute,” he said, slipping past his confused friend to go after his new one. “Sydney, wait!”

***

She turned around at the sound of her name being called, but held up her hands as Jay approached her.

“I’m not interested,” she said. “I have my own shit to deal with. You…”

“I’m sorry you had to fucking see that. That was about my shit. Look, just listen to Lisa, okay? She’s the smartest woman I know.” He stood out in front of the gym’s metal garage, and sighed. “I’m sorry,” he said again. Scratching his head, he turned and went back inside.

Sydney only shook her head and continued her walk to the street.

Back in Lisa’s office, Jay answered her earlier questions. “Ryan just pushed me, that’s all. He wanted me to get in the cage again and fight. I told him ‘no,’ but he said to just do a practice with him, and he kept egging me on…” He trailed off with a shake of his head. “I lost it. I’m sorry.”

Lisa was quiet as she digested this. “I’ll talk to Ryan.”

“No.” Jay waved a hand. “We’ll sort it out. Hey, what did you think of Sydney?”

“I thought she was a candidate for the new fight instructor we were recruiting. Are you seeing her?”

“We’re not dating,” he replied. “I just bought her a beer once, and some tacos.”

“That sounds like dating.”

“It’s a fluid and ever evolving situation.”

They both smiled at that for a moment before Jay sobered. “I think I just fucked it up, though,” he admitted.

“You think you can teach your last class today?”

He nodded. “Yeah.”

“Go do it.”

“Okay. Hey, thanks, Lisa.” He left her office.

Lisa sat back in her seat and sighed before picking up the phone. It looked like it would be up to her to find their new instructor. She glanced down at the list she had already drawn up and began to dial.
