Radford Cave
Radford Cave, in Hexton Wood, near Hooe, Plymouth, Devon is a small phreatic cave of some ecological interest. It has been known to spelologists and others for many years and a plan was published in 1953.
It is a popular place for adventure-seekers and those new caving, since it provides an easy round trip and is it difficult to get lost. However there are occasional incidents when the inept, over-enthusiastic or inexperienced become stuck. There was, for example, a small drama reported on the front page of the Western Morning Herald as well as in the Daily Telegraph where a Coldstream Guards instructor became wedged by his hips, face down, and had to be chipped free.
The cave is locked to protect the bats.
The cave is situated in an old quarry in Devonian limestone. Its total passage length is around 600m. Cave temperature is 12-13 Celsius. Air moves into the cave during daylight hours and out during the hours of darkness. The maximum passage height is about 9m with humidity varying within the cave from 83 to 98%, but it is usually at the top of the range. Local building may have had an effect on the ecology of the cave. The pools of water within the cave are at a pH of 7.7. Organic matter comprises less than 6% of the cave clay so this is a poor food for invertebrates.

Radford Semele
Coordinates: 52°16′37″N 1°29′46″W / 52.277000°N 1.496000°W / 52.277000; -1.496000
Radford Semele is a village and civil parish in Warwickshire, England, close to the town of Leamington Spa. According to the 2001 UK census, Radford Semele parish had a population of 2,034. It lies to the east of Leamington, on the A425 road between Leamington and Southam. It has a 16th century pub with a priest hole. The local school is the Radford Semele Church of England School. This is a primary school and most senior pupils go to school in either Southam, Leamington Spa or Warwick which are close by. As well as the parish church of St Nicholas, which burnt down in March 2008, the village also has a second church built in 1874, the Radford Semele Baptist Church.
A poorly preserved Roman Villa was excavated in 1974 at NGR SP 342624 near Pounce Hill Farm, approximately 1.5 km south of the village. See [1] and [2].
The village is named after a family from Saint-Pierre-de-Semilly in Normandy - they were lords of the manor in around 1120.

Radford University
Radford University, located in Radford in the U.S. state of Virginia, is one of the state's eight doctoral-degree granting public universities. Originally founded in 1910, Radford offers comprehensive curricula for undergraduates in more than 100 fields, and graduate programs including the M.F.A., M.B.A. and specialized doctoral programs in health-related professions.
Radford's undergraduate programs emphasize the liberal arts, business, and teacher education. The graduate and undergraduate programs in business administration offered by the College of Business and Economics at Radford University are accredited by the AACSB International — The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. Radford is among the 9 percent of the world's (top 10% in the United States) business schools that have achieved business and/or accounting accreditation from AACSB.
The university has a student/faculty ratio of 19:1 with an average class size of 30 to 40. Graduate students teach less than 5% of classes, so undergraduates work more closely with senior faculty than they might at a larger research university.

Time of your life
Can you make it count without a sound?
There's no one that makes you feel like a someone
With your naked lies and your frozen eyes
'Cause it's too late to say you're sorry
It's too late to understand
All of the times you make me worry
When the night feels like it's loaded
Well the wasted day and the trace of decay
And you're somewhere, it sometimes feels like you're nowhere
Deaf on a cold freeway, is that your only way?
'Cause it's too late to say you're sorry
It's too late to understand
All of the times you made me worry
All of the times that I tried to fake a smile
Have you ever needed someone else?
And the feeling never fades
Have you ever had it pulled away from you
Till there was nothing left to take?
It's too late to say you're sorry
It's too late to understand
All of the times you made me worry
All of the times that I tried to fake a smile
guess i'm talking too loud
i hope you know just what it's like
and if i'm feeling too proud
i just want to watch you when you go
i guess i'm trying too hard
for my feelings not to show
i'm at my lowest by far
i still want to watch you when you go
cause i know the things you say to me
don't mean the same to me
i'm trying to let go
so where do you go when you sleep?
and where do you go when you need to get by?
where do you go when you dream?
and where do you go when you're just hanging on...
too tight?
i guess i'm waiting for you
i guess we all know how it feels
why are you being so cruel
to make me watch you when you go
so where do you go when you sleep?
and where do you go when you need to get by?
where do you go when you dream?
and where do you go when you're just hanging on...
too tight?
too tight?
too tight?
too tight?
so where do you go when you sleep?
and where do you go when you need to get by?
where do you go when you dream?
and where do you go when you're just hanging on...
too tight?
too tight?
too tight?
Catch me if you can, is nothing ever what it seems?
Medicate my world and everything in between
So much for the time that we spent in my head
So much for the life that you told me to get
'Cause I don't need you to tell me who I am
I don't need you to pick at every strand
I don't need you to open any doors
I just need you to catch me if I fall
Break me if you can but promise me you'll never tell
As soon as I can stand I'm kicking off your private spell
So much for the time that we spent in my head
So much for the life that you told me to get
'Cause I don't need you to tell me who I am
I don't need you to pick at every strand
I don't need you to open any doors
I just need you to catch me if I fall
Help me save myself
And promise me you won't let go
So much for the time that we spent in my head
So much for the life that you told me to get
'Cause I don't need you to tell me who I am
I don't need you to pick at every strand
I don't need you to open any doors
I don't need you
'Cause I don't need you to tell me who I am
I don't need you to pick at every strand
I don't need you to open any doors
I just need you to catch me if I fall
It's been such a long year
And theres so much we've done
The days getting longer
We're chasing the sun
The feelings it brings back our lives
Are wrapped intertwined
The times that will make us..
The times that will make us..... yeaaaa
(Chorus)
'Cause its a sweet summer, sweet summer day
And no we can't let it... can't let it goto waste
'Cause its a sweet summer day
Now we will make our mistakes
Like children will play
Out in the fields where...
Our memories are made..... yeaaaa
(Chorus)
Ohhh Yeaa.....
There are moments that cannot return
They live on deep down inside of you
The times thta will break us
The times that will make us..... yeaaaa
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
It's a sweet summer day...
It's a sweet summer day...
It's a sweet summer day...
It's a sweet summer day...
I'm on a rocket ship, to a mother ship
I'm flying solo
but I don't know if I can stop
don't ask me why, don't make me lie
just sit back, just get back and enjoy the ride
cause I'm a spaceman
and I'm living in a world, that sucks me in
but can't spit me out
stay with me, stay with me tonight
stay with me, stay with me
tomorrow is just another day
and I don't know if I can make it
all the way home
I need correction, I need direction again
and my windows are too dirty to see through
don't ask me why, don't make me lie
just get back, just sit back
and enjoy the ride
cause I'm a spaceman
and I'm living in a world, that sucks me in
but can't spit me out
stay with me, stay with me tonight
stay with me, stay with me
tomorrow is just another day
if you smack me, you'll crack me
reduce me to tears
if you thrill me, you'll kill me
you'll bury me alive
stay with me, stay with me tonight
stay with me, stay with me
tomorrow is just another day
stay with me, stay with me tonight
stay with me, stay with me
tomorrow is just another day
I don't think that I'm coming down
and I don't think that I can make it
all the way home
I just want to get it
just want to take it all home
I just want to get it
i'm no fool
cause i'm not your bitch
it's a different day
with the same old shit
and if i could stand on the moon
i would wave to my friends
i would tell them to rot by themselves
i want more
i want more
so why am i falling way down
if i want more
i can't see
cause i'm going blind
i'm dying today and i don't seem to mind
if i could stand on the moon
i would wave to my friends
i would tell them to rot by themselves
i want more
i want more
so why am i falling way down
if i want more
someone said
that i don't even know my own name
but that's just a game
someone said
that i don't even know my own name
but that's just a game...it's only, it's only a game
if i could stand on the moon i would tell them to stop
i want more
i want more
so why am i falling way down
if i want more
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
don't know
If I turn around would you be standing there in
disrepair
Your never hearing what I say
Cause if you did you'd see that life begins with
yesterday
And I hope you stay away
I hope you stay away
I hope you stay away
But you'll keep on buzzing like a fly
Cause there’s someone somewhere falling for you
There’s someone somewhere crying for you
But I can't be that someones somewhere for you
Your mistaking me with someone who cares
If I run away would you pursue
Doesn’t matter that I don't really want you too
I’m not this monster you portray
And people won't believe every little thing you say
And I hope you stay away
I hope you stay away
I hope you stay away
But you'll keep on buzzing like a fly
Cause there’s someone somewhere falling for you
There’s someone somewhere crying for you
But I can't be that someones somewhere for you
Your mistaking me with someone who cares
I can I can't make it right [4x]
We hope you stay away [3x]
You’ll stop buzzing like a fly
Cause there’s someone somewhere falling for you
There’s someone somewhere crying for you
But I can't be that someones somewhere for you
Your mistaking me with someone who says goodbye
Someone who says goodbye
i know
you've got dependencies
and i know
you're not giving me the things i need
cause you know i'm on system overload
and you know
what everybody doesn't know
i see
that i'm just wasting time
and i see
that hanging on would be unkind
cause you see
that my self-destructiveness
will make you see
all of my helplessness
cause i'm feeling like i'm overflowing
and i'm breathing but never knowing
that you kill me but still i'm growing
til everything's gone wrong
we know
that we don't learn from our mistakes
but we know
that something broken never breaks
and we see
there's nothing left to say
i guess we see...
that i'm feeling like i'm overflowing
and i'm breathing but never knowing
that you kill me but still i'm growing
til everything's gone wrong
everything's gone wrong
everything's gone wrong
everything's gone wrong
you're always pushing me around
and i'm feeling like i'm overflowing
and i'm breathing but still i'm growing
that you kill me but still i'm growing
til everything's gone wrong
i'm feeling like i'm overflowing
and i'm breathing but never knowing
that you kill me but still i'm growing
i can leave this all behind
feeling like i'm losing my mind
but i can't stand to look at you
if being cruel is all you can do
is it all you can do?
cause now that i see you
i don't feel so bad
and now i don't need to
i feel like it's you that is trying to hold on
but i'm over you
i'm over you
i can turn my back on you
for all the xxxx that you've put me through again
dig myself from this hole
the feeling that i've lost control
i've lost control
cause now that i see you
i don't feel so bad
and now i don't need to
i feel like it's you that is trying to hold on
but i'm over you
i'm over you
cause nothing ever changes
but nothing stays the same
nothing ever changes but nothing stays the same
and nothing fades away...only you
i'm over you
i'm over you
cause i'm over you
i'm over you
i'm over you
I see a last time attack
From a sad song, I need you to come back
If the world gets sick from its spin
Peel back the walls, close me in
When the last hope couldn't be known
When the last chance was being alone
When the lights burns out
And you pull me out of the dark
And you pull me out of the dark
I hear a last time attempt
From a hopeful song that one's dreamt
But maybe if the world starts spinning again
I will be closed in, feeling the strain
When the last hope couldn't be known
When the last chance was being alone
When the lights burn down
And you pull me out of the dark
And you pull me out of the dark
Oh, God, how can you see?
Oh, God, how can you see?
When the last hope couldn't be known
When the last chance was being alone
When the lights burned out
And you pull me out of the dark
And you pull me out of the dark
And you pull me out of the dark
Then you pull me out of the dark
Then you pull me out of the dark
Out of the dark
Shame, shame, floating, floating
Shame, shame, floating, floating
Shame, shame, floating, floating
Shame, shame, floating, floating
Shame, shame, floating, floating
Shame, shame, floating, floating
Shame, shame, floating, floating
Just another day my dear, choking in the atmosphere
And if I just breathe in maybe I'll black out
And there's someone else you need to get you steppin' over me
And if I just breathe in maybe I'll black out
'Cause you know, yeah you know
You know, I can always see right through you
Oh no everything has changed
You may never be the same
I know disappoint my rage for you and me
It's a long way down
Just another day my dear, another lie to overhear
And if I just explode, would anybody notice me?
I've been inside my shell, I just came out to wish you well
And if I just explode, would anybody notice me?
'Cause you know, yeah you know
You know, I can always see right through you
Oh no everything has changed
You may never be the same
I know disappoint my rage for you and me
It's a long way down
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Oh no everything has changed
You may never be the same
I know disappoint my rage for you and me
Oh no everything has changed
You may never be the same
I know disappoint my rage for you and me
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
The feelings i need
they don't matter
you're just a breath away from me
the scene that we play
doesn't change things
it's still a crime scene we've made
i've got angels crashing over my head
they're crying for the things that you said
so how does it feel? to feel?
so how does it feel? to feel?
the city we breathe isn't changing
you're just a step away from home
and the life that we lead doesn't matter
if you don't find yourself leading your own
i've got angels crashing over my head
they're crying for the things that you said
so how does it feel? to feel?
so how does it feel? to feel?
cause i don't want to come down
i know it's almost too late to fade
don't you want to give in
this time it's okay
to feel
to feel
i've got angels crashing over my head
they're crying for the things that you said
for so long, you've gone on
trying to see an end to it all
and i know, your grip is getting loose
you think, if you leave
the pain will go away
but you don't know
you need it to get through
cause i can tell by the thing you say
that your feelings will never change
you'll keep coming back to what you know is true
it's okay to want to be free
it's okay to spread your wings
if you know how to fly
so for now, you go on
crawling along for a while
but you're dragging me down
you're holding me back
you're making it end
cause i can tell by the thing you say
that you feelings will never change
you'll keep coming back to what you know is true
it's okay to want to be free
it's okay to spread your wings
if you know how to fly
you can fly
you can fly
you can fly
you can fly
it's okay to want to be free
it's okay to spread your wings
if you know how to fly
it's okay to close your eyes
it's okay to fade away
if you don't want to stay
cause you can fly
you can fly
I'm down
on my floor
staring at myself
and I know
I'll throw it all away
I'm down on my luck
with no way to turn it around
cause I know
I can't say it all again
and if I seem too weak
If I seem to fall apart too soon
If it's all we read and all that we believe
I'll figure it out somehow
I'm down
for a week
I don't have the strength to get up
cause I know
I'll say it all again
If i seem too weak
If i seem to fall apart too soon
If it's all we read and all that we believe
and I'll figure it out somehow
oh, shame on me
I'm coming over again
I know you feel the same
until I fall at your feet
your feet(4x)
If I seem too weak
If I seem to fall apart too soon
If it's all we read and all that we believe
and I'll figure it out somehow
and If I seem too weak
If I seem to fall apart too soon
If it's all we read and all that we believe
What's your point fighting me
You should save your energy
'Cause when your cracks begin to show I’ll creep in
You'll never know
What if you counted all the times
You turned me down
Would you understand?
It could be so much easier
If you want me, if you need me
It could be so much easier
If you want me, if you need me
This time
In all this confusion I can see
Your skin is crawling next to me
The more you push
The more I pull
Trying to keep you invisible
What if you counted all the times
You turned me down
Would you understand?
It could be so much easier
If you want me, if you need me
It could be so much easier
If you want me, if you need me
We could beat all this loneliness
If you want me, if you need me
It could be so much easier
If you want me, if you need me
This time
This time
'Cause I can feel you under me
And you can't move until you sleep
It could be easier
If you want me, if you need me
It could be easier
If you want me, if you need me
We could beat all this loneliness
If you want me, if you need me
It could be so much easier
Do you want me?
Do you need me?
This is the place
That I'm coming from
This is the sadness I've felt all along
Is this the push that I must give myself to get feeling
Cause suddenly I'm feeling like you wanted something
more than this
If you don't stop giving in,
You won't know how it feels
But don't stop sleeping in cause you don't know how I
feel
God knows that I let you down
This is the wall that you try to shake
And this is my focus that you try to break
Is this the fall that I have to take to know that you
care
Cause suddenly I'm feeling like you wanted something
more than this
If you don't stop giving in
You won't know how it feels
But don't stop sleeping in cause you don't know how I
feel
God knows that I let you down
Cause suddenly I'm feeling like you wanted something
more than this
I swear you will, I swear you will
If you don't stop giving in
You won't know how it feels
But don't stop sleeping in cause you don't know how it
feels
If you don't stop giving in
You won't know how it feels
But don't stop sleeping in cause you don't know how it
feels
Cause I let you down
I let you down
God only knows
God only knows that I
God only knows
God only knows that I
God only knows
God only knows that I
God only knows
From the back seat of a stolen car to the back door of a sleazy bar
Your a victim of circumstance
You must see what it feels like, you must see what it feels like
What it looks like
You know you know, you got a dead heart
I always said it's gonna tear us apart
When the devil comes he'll wear your face
You know you know, you got a dead heart
From the front room of a pent house to the bedroom of a whore house
You evicted and know where to go, know where to go
You must see what it feels like, you must see what it feels like
What it looks like
You know you know, you got a dead heart
I always said it's gonna tear us apart
When the devil comes he'll wear your face
You know you know, you got a dead heart
They must see what it looks like, they must see what it looks like
They must see what it feels like
You know you know, you got a dead heart
I always said it's gonna tear us apart
And when the devil comes he'll wear your face
You know you know, you got a dead heart
You know, you got a dead heart
You know, you got a dead heart
You know, you got a dead heart
If I could find a way to believe
And you could rescue me then I?d leave
I?d pick myself up off the floor
And maybe we could run through it all
But you?re pulling me till I give
The way that you touch me, the way that I feel
The way that you own me, the soul that I need
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway 'cause you're a dick to me
I?m outta control
And everybody said that they knew
That my collapse was way overdue
But I could show the world one day
That you could blow my world away
But you're pulling me till I give
The way that you touch me , the way that I feel
The way that you own me the soul that I need
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway 'cause you're a dick to me
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
The way that you touch me, the way that I feel
The way that you own me the soul that I need
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway, someway
The way that you touch me, the way that you own me
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway 'cause you're a dick to me
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
you feel like you're losing it, you're feeling so low
you live on the ceiling but you don't let it show
i don't know why you say that you hate me
cause we are the same
so come on, leave it alone
you don't have to stay
and all i need is someone who cares
like a friend
cause you know i change every day

you feel like you're safe
i don't know why you say that you hate me
cause we are the same
so come on, leave me alone
stay out of my way
cause all i need is someone who cares like a friend
cause you know i change every day
so come on
if you keep breathing it in
then you know how i feel
when you always say i need more time
so come on
if you need to get by
then you know how it feels
when you say

come on, come on, come, you come on
cause all i need is someone who cares like a friend
cause you know i change every day
so come on

so come on
if you need to get by
then you know how it feels
when you say
i'm coming on like a storm
come on, come on, come, you come on
all i need is someone who cares
Hope, the hope is killing me
Hope it waits for me, will it wait for me
This is something I can't take
Something I can't take
Following me
Inside my head
I'm closer to myself than I ever felt
Closer to myself than I ever felt
Blood is trickling away
Won't slow down for me
Won't slow down for me
This is something I don't need
Something I can't take
Following me
Inside my head
I'm closer to myself than I ever felt
Closer to myself than I ever felt
I've wasted, wasted, wasted my whole life
I'm closer to myself than I felt.
Always left behind
It's something I don't mind
If I focus on the road (repeat)
I'm closer to myself than I ever felt
Closer to myself than I ever felt
I've wasted, wasted, wasted my whole life
I'm closer to myself than I felt
And I can't believe in you.
And I can't believe in you.
And I can't believe in you.
Make me close my eyes
I can't take the strain
And I can barely breathe
So do it again
Pre-Chorus:
'Cause just when you thought
I couldn't get much worse
I will not hesitate
Chorus:
'Cause everything is beautiful
Look through my eyes
You can see what I mean
Everything is wonderful
Look through my eyes
You can see what I mean
Help me get to sleep
Stop the machines
I can feel a peace come over me
Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus
Make me close my eyes
I can't take the strain
And I can barely breathe
So do it again
Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus
Repeat Chorus
You can see what I mean
I could say that I'm sorry
And that I was to blame
It would stop us from fighting
But it won't numb the pain
You say that we're broken
And that's all that you can see
But if I picked up the pieces
Where would you be?
I will walk
While you
You will run
I'm tired
I will go on
'Cause I would do anything
To just make it right
The letters you wrote me
Swallowed my pride
So why are you keeping secrets?
When I'm opened wide
And you must know what it looks like
'Cause you're ready to fly
You're craving your freedom
So why shouldn't I?
'Cause I will walk
While you
You will run
I'm tired
But I will go on
'Cause I would do anything
To just make it right
To just make it right
'Cause I will walk
While you
You will run
I'm tired
But I will go on
'Cause I would do anything
'Cause I would do anything
Anything
I would do anything
To just make it right

Just make it right
To just make it right
To just make it right
'Cause I have done everything
To make it all right

Radford students gathering to celebrate their country. It began around 11 o'clock and lasted till around 3 or 4am....all of which was on a Sunday night, the night before finals. After tearing through campus, waking up the "diligent" students, we took it to the streets: Down East Main, back up through light side and started about 4 fires, including 2 sofas and 2 dumper fires! And what greater way to end the celebration than at 7/11 for a taquito!

Daniel Radford sur France 2 - Vivement dimanche avec Sheila L'homme aux Livres www.amazon.fr Presses du Châtelet, 3 oct. 2012 - 260 pages Ouvrier en usine, vendeur en librairie... Daniel Radford, natif de Guadeloupe, a multiplié les petits boulots avant d'apprendre auprès de Robert Laffont le métier d'éditeur. Au fil de ses lectures, il se plonge dans l'Ancien Testament. D'abord choqué par la découverte de ce Dieu vengeur et jaloux, il entreprend une quête spirituelle qui le mène tout d'abord chez un libraire de la rue des Rosiers - et se rappelle que « Papa Roro », son grand-père, était d'origine juive... Au bout de ce chemin de quinze ans, qui passe par l'étude des textes, la traduction du Talmud, intervient sa conversion au judaïsme, au côté de deux « guides » : Sylvain Kaufmann, rescapé des camps d'extermination, et le rabbin Daniel Gottlieb (1940-2010), secrétaire particulier du grand rabbin Sirat... L'Homme au Livre est l'histoire de ce cheminement, qui conduira Daniel Radford jusqu'au rabbinat. Cet homme aux passions multiples raconte la rue Nozière du Pointe-à-Pitre de son enfance, bruyante et joyeuse, à laquelle ressemble tant la rue des Rosiers. Une vie tout entière dédiée aux livres... et au Livre, dans le compagnonnage des grands convertis de l'Histoire. books.google.co.il

USS Radford; Wreck to reef project
- Order: Reorder

- Updated: 21 Aug 2012
Early this summer (2010) the American Marine Group (AMG) was awarded a contract to their largest and most challenging project to date. A US Navy destroyer "USS Arthur W. Radford" which is destined to become the largest ship ever to be sunk along the US Atlantic coast, as an artificial reef. These ships provide the perfect structure to promote marine growth creating ecosystems where none existed before. AMG has been sensitive to both the ecology and the economics of seeing these projects to fruition and have placed more artificial reef material on the ocean floor than any other marine contractor. I've been documenting this process since they took possession. This is an on going project that will follow this and other vessels from shipyard to sand bar and beyond.

Ronnie Radford (born 12 July 1943 in South Elmsall, Yorkshire) is a former English footballer who notably scored a memorable goal in the 1971-72 FA Cup for Hereford United during their famous 2-1 giant-killing of Newcastle United.

Career[link]
Radford started his footballing career at Sheffield Wednesday and later Leeds United, but did not make a first team appearance for either club. He joined Cheltenham Town where he was an ever-present in the 1963-64 season, even though he was only a part-time footballer; working during the week as a joiner. He spent one season at Rugby Town before returning to Whaddon Road in 1966. Newport County then paid £1,500 for him in 1969,[1] and in his first season he was voted Player of the Year by the supporters. While at Newport Radford scored a volley from the edge of the box against Bradford Park Avenue, which flew into the top corner. Years later Radford said in an interview that he believed that goal was equally as good a goal as his most famous effort.
Eventually the financial and physical strain of travelling to and from Newport led to Radford moving to a club closer to home. That club was Hereford United. Radford was a regular in the Hereford midfield and was part of the team that went on an incredible cup run, from the Fourth Qualifying Round to the Fourth Round Proper. In the Third Round Hereford met Newcastle United at St James' Park, and the team of part-timers came away with a 2-2 draw, after going 1-0 up in the first minute.
The Newcastle replay[link]
Main article: Hereford United v Newcastle United 1972
The much-postponed replay at Edgar Street was played on a quagmire of a pitch in front of a capacity crowd. The match was being covered by the BBC with a young John Motson commentating. It was originally scheduled for a small slot on Match of the Day later that evening. Newcastle went 1-0 ahead in the last ten minutes, and with the tie seemingly settled, Radford won a tackle in the Newcastle half and played a one-two with Brian Owen (who had scored the first goal at Newcastle). The return pass bobbled on the muddy surface but sat up nicely for Radford, and he unleased a 30-yard strike into the top corner that beat Willie McFaul to equalise. The goal sparked a pitch invasion, and the images of the muddy pitch, Radford celebrating with arms aloft and the crowd invading the pitch, have since become immortalised in FA Cup history.
Radford's goal is sometimes incorrectly attributed as the winning goal; indeed the match actually went to extra time. It was substitute Ricky George who got the winner and wrote his name in the history books alongside Radford, as Hereford held out for an incredible 2-1 victory which is generally considered the greatest FA Cup shock of all time. The BBC quickly switched the match to the feature slot on Match of the Day, and Radford's goal was replayed countless times and was eventually voted Goal of the Season. It was the first goal from the FA Cup to win the Goal of the Season competition.[2] For many years the footage of Radford's wonder goal, coupled with the commentary of John Motson, was part of the Match of the Day opening titles and it arguably launched Motson's career.
Later career[link]
After bowing out of the cup to West Ham United, Hereford eventually finished runners-up and were elected to the Football League. Radford stayed at Hereford until July 1974 when he became player-manager at nearby Worcester City. He later played for Bath City and Forest Green Rovers but an Achilles tendon injury ended his playing career. He moved back to Yorkshire to continue his work as a carpenter and joiner, having been a part-time footballer for much of his career.
In 2002 his goal against Newcastle was voted 97th in the 100 Greatest Sporting Moments.

Nigel Benn (born 22 January 1964), known as "The Dark Destroyer", is a British former boxer who held world titles in the middleweight and super middleweight divisions.
Benn was also in the British Army, where he served in Northern Ireland for 18 months. He attended Loxford School of Science and Technology, Ilford, Greater London. Now he lives in Mallorca, Spain with his family.
Contents |
Background[link]
Barbadian British,[1] Benn comes from a sporting family that includes a famous cousin in the football world, Paul Ince, who would often accompany Benn to the ring for his British fights. Benn had a record of 41 wins and 1 loss as an amateur boxer, with the loss being against Rod Douglas, whom Benn later defeated.
Professional boxing career[link]
Benn turned professional in 1987 and began a streak of consecutive knockout wins. During this time, Benn won the vacant Commonwealth middleweight title with a second round win over Abdul Umaru.
At 22-0 (22 KOs), Benn defended his Commonwealth title against Michael Watson in a heavily hyped bout in May 1989 at Finsbury Park, London. Throwing nothing but hooks, Benn repeatedly failed to get through Watson's tight guard, and gradually tired whilst being stunned numerous times himself.
In the sixth round, Watson knocked Benn down with a jab and Benn was counted out as he rose to his feet, albeit by a somewhat hasty referee's count.
His next fight, against Jorge Amparo in Atlantic City, U.S., was his first fight abroad and also the first to last the full distance, with Benn winning a 10 round decision.
WBO middleweight champion[link]
After two more wins, against Sanderline Williams and Jose Quinones, Benn fought WBO middleweight title holder Doug DeWitt of the USA in Atlantic City. Benn was knocked down in round two, but came back to knock DeWitt down in round three, then score three knockdowns in round eight to win the title.
His first defence came in August 1990 against former WBC champion Iran Barkley, whom he floored three times and stopped on the three-knockdown rule at the end of the first round. Benn returned to the UK and met British rival Chris Eubank. They fought in Birmingham on the 18th of November 1990. Benn lost his title to Eubank when the referee stopped the fight in the ninth round.

WBC super middleweight champion[link]
Benn then went on a winning streak of six fights leading up to another world title challenge. In 1991, he beat Marvin Hagler's half brother, Robbie Sims, by a knockout in round seven, followed by a close, disputed decision win against Thulani Malinga, and a one-punch KO victory against Dan Sherry.
On 10 October 1992, Benn challenged Mauro Galvano for the WBC super middleweight title in Palaghiaccio de Marino, Marino, Lazio, Italy. After a controversial dispute at ringside over the official result, as a result og Galvano's inability to continue of being cut, Benn was declared the winner and won the title by a fourth-round TKO.
He defended it against fellow Britons Nicky Piper and Lou Gent, and a rematch victory over Mauro Galvano, before meeting rival Chris Eubank (who was now the WBO super middleweight champion) again on the 9th of October 1993. This time they fought to a disputed draw, both fighters retaining their respective titles. Benn successfully defended his title twice more in 1994 with unanimous decisions against fellow Briton Henry Wharton, and Juan Carlos Giminez
Benn vs McClellan[link]
In February 1995, Benn defended his 168lbs title against WBC middleweight champion Gerald McClellan in a highly anticipated bout billed as "Sudden Impact". Most American experts gave Benn little chance. In an exciting fight Benn was knocked through the ropes in the first round and was knocked down again in the eighth round, however Benn managed to twice work his way back into the fight and was able to stop McClellan in the tenth round. At the time of the stoppage, two judges had McClellan ahead and one had the fight even.
Unfortunately, however, McClellan was severely injured as a result of the fight. After collapsing in his corner after the fight had finished, McClellan was rushed to hospital where it was discovered he had developed a blood clot on the brain. To this day McClellan is almost completely blind, partially deaf, and uses a wheelchair, although he has regained some movement and can walk with a cane. In 2007, McClellan, his wife and children attended a benefit dinner organized and hosted by Benn to help McClellan with his ongoing medical expenses.
Two more defences followed against future WBC title-holder Vincenzo Nardiello and American Danny Perez, before Benn lost his title with an uncharacteristically lacklustre performance to old rival Malinga in 1996.
Benn twice attempted to take the WBO super middleweight title from Steve Collins but failed in both attempts: losing by TKO in four in the first fight after sustaining an ankle injury. He retired following the second loss to Collins in 1996, retiring on his stool at the end of the sixth-round.
Retirement[link]
Nigel Benn retired from the sport of boxing and became a DJ, He later appeared in the first series of the ITV reality TV show I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!.
Benn has since developed a strong faith and now lives with his family on the Spanish island of Mallorca, where he is a born again Christian. He also became an ordained minister.
Benn's autobiography, published in 2001, is called Dark Destroyer.
Benn is also featured in the documentary film "Fallen Soldier", directed by Bobby Razak, which examines his bout with McClellan.[2]
Nigel Benn is also a Patron of The Shannon Bradshaw Trust, a UK Children's Charity based in the North West, helping children and their families with life threatening conditions. www.shannonstrust.org.uk

Arthur William Radford (February 27, 1896 – August 17, 1973) was a United States Navy Admiral, Commander-in-Chief of the United States Pacific Command and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Arthur Radford was born in Chicago, Illinois, in 1896. After graduating from the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, in 1916, Radford served on board the battleship USS South Carolina (BB-26).
In his career as a U.S. Navy officer, Radford served during World War I as a surface ship warfare officer. After the end of the war, Radford entered naval aviation, and he completed training as a pilot in 1921. After service aboard aircraft carriers, and periods of service ashore, Radford was appointed as the Chief of Aviation Training in 1941, months the entrance of the United States into World War II on December 7, 1941.
Contents |
Duty during World War II[link]
During World War II, Admiral Radford commanded Carrier Division Eleven in the Pacific during 1943 and Carrier Division Six in 1944. However, more importantly, Radford commanded aircraft carrier Task Group 38.4 and Task Group 58.4 during 1943 - 45 that were parts of the Fast Carrier Task Force of the U.S. Pacific Fleet (either as part of Task Force 38 or part of Task Force 58.)
Postwar duties with the U.S. Navy[link]
In 1948, Radford was appointed by President Harry S. Truman as the Vice Chief of Naval Operations. Then, in 1949, Truman appointed Radford as the High Commissioner of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands.
In 1949, President Truman appointed Radford to the position of Commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, and Radford served in this post from then until mid-1953: vital years for the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps because of their commitment to the Korean War - which began in 1950 and ended in 1953,
In 1953, as the Korean War was winding down - but the time was in the depths of the Cold War, President Dwight D. Eisenhower appointed Admiral Radford as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Radford served in this position for two, two-year terms during 1953 through 1957, when he retired from active duty in the Navy.
During his retirement, Admiral Radford continued to advise Presidents Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson whenever called upon to do so, and Radford was also selected as a member of the Draper Committee.
As the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Radford paid close attention to both the tense situation in Korea and to the activities of the French Army and the French Air Force in French Indochina, especially in Viet-Nam. The crucial turning point in the French struggle against a communist rebellion in Viet-Nam came during the siege of the French Army in North Vietnam during the Battle of Dien Bien Phu, where it had become completely concentrated and surrounded. At that time Radford urged the President, to send units of the U.S. Air Force to Viet-Nam to support the French Army. This support was granted in the form of just two B-26 Invader light bomber squadrons of the Air Force. These were sent in what turned out to be a vain attempt to aid the besieged French Army garrison at Dien Bien Phu. In any case, the North Vietnamese communist rebels were able to assault and rout the French Army there, caputuring many prisoners. After long negotiations between the French and the North Vietnamese in 1954, the French government decided to concede all of Vietnam north of the 17th Parallel to communist rule.
Admiral Radford and his staff had foreseen what would happen following a French defeat at Dien Bien Phu. It has been reported that Admiral Radford discussed with the French government the possibility of using nuclear weapons to defend the French garrison at Dien Bien Phu.(3) However, in any case, President Eisenhower declined to take such a drastic and dangerous step into nuclear warfare, and from 1946 on, none were ever used in warfare anywhere in the world.
During his second two-year term as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (1955–57), Admiral Radford was instrumental in establishing the Navy's program of Polaris missile nuclear submarines, which required the development of all of these: the ballistic missiles, the new ballistic missile submarines to carry 16 apiece of them, and the appropriate thermonuclear warheads for them. This took on elements of a crash program, and the first Polaris submarine, the USS George Washington (SSBN-598), was commissioned at the beginning of 1960, and she took to sea for submerged patrol as a nuclear deterrent. Between 1960 and 1967, 41 of these Polaris submarines entered service with the U.S. Navy.
Also, during his four years in this post, several of the large Forrestal class aircraft carriers entered the U.S. Navy's fleet to give it a large amount of conventional and nuclear striking power, especially in the Western Pacific Ocean and in the Mediterranean Sea. In addition, construction work was commenced on the two somewhat-improved supercarriers of the Kitty Hawk class aircraft carriers, and the design work was begun on the world's first two nuclear powered surface warships, the guided-missile cruiser USS Long Beach (CGN-9) and the supercarrier USS Enterprise (CVN-65), which entered service in 1960 - 61.
In 1957, at the end of his second term as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Radford retired from active service in the U.S. Navy, and he then assumed a relatively-quiet private life, except when the three Presidents mentioned above called up him for his advice.
Admiral Radford died at the age of 77 in 1973 at Bethesda Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. Radford was buried with the full honors accorded to a former four-star Admiral, and a former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Section 3 of the Arlington National Cemetery, in grave Section 3, in Arlington, Virginia.
Later on, the new anti-submarine warfare-specialized Spruance class destroyer USS Arthur W. Radford (DD-968) was named to honor Admiral Radford. Furthermore, Radford High School in Honolulu, Hawaii, was named in his honor. This school, opened in 1957, overlooks Pearl Harbor in Oahu.
Personal life[link]
Radford married, in 1939, Mariam J. Spencer (1895-1997), the former wife of Earl Winfield Spencer, Jr., Commander, USN; the former wife of A. Cressey Maze; and a daughter of Simon Caro. By this marriage he had one stepson, Robert C. Maze Sr., USMC, who was killed in action in 1945.[1][1]
Radford's obituary[link]
Obituary from an unknown and undated naval publication supplied by a niece of Admiral Radford to this writer:
ARTHUR WILLIAM RADFORD '16
Adm. Arthur W. Radford, USN (Ret.), Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Eisenhower administration, died on 18 August of cancer at the Bethesda Naval Hospital
Born in Chicago, young Radford entered the Naval Academy from Iowa in 1912 and graduated in 1916. His first assignments were to USS South Carolina and as Aide and Flag Lieutenant to Commander Battle Division One during World War I. Foreseeing the future importance of naval aviation, Radford requested flight training, from which he was designated a Naval Aviator in November 1920. Following a tour in BuAer [the Bureau of Aeronautics], he served with aviation units in the tender USS Aroostook and battleships USS Colorado and USS Pennsylvania.
From 1927 to 1929 Adm. Radford was attached to the Naval Air Station in San Diego, then headed the Alaskan Survey Detachment investigating forest and mineral resources in Alaska by airborne surveys. He then joined USS Saratoga, commanding Fighter Squadron One from July 1930 to May 1931 and then shifting to the staff of Commander Aircraft Battle Force. Another tour in BuAer was followed by duty as Navigator of the USS Wright, further assignment to the staff of ComAirBatFor, command of NAS Seattle from 1937 to May 1940, and a year as Executive Officer USS Yorktown.
Radford was then ordered to OpNav as Director of Aviation Training, to the Tenth Naval District to establish and commission NAS Trinidad, and returned to BuAer in December 1941.
In July 1943, Adm. Radford was appointed Commander of Carrier Division 11 and led it into action against the Japanese at Baker, Makin and Tarawa Islands. As a result of this campaign he was given the Distinguished Service Medal. The citation read in part:
"Through his courageous initiative and aggressive determination, the first carrier-borne Night Fighter teams were organized and trained at sea, later proving their value by effectively dispersing a hostile night torpedo attack."
The words, "courageous initiative and aggressive determination," could be applied to most of Adm. Radford's activities. His mind was a happy combination of the imagination necessary to conceive a plan and the ability to carry it out successfully.
For ten months in 1944 Adm. Radford served as Asst. DCNO (Air) in OpNav with additional duty on the Special Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee on Reorganization of the National Defense, then returned to the Pacific as ComCarDiv 6 for the remainder of the war. In December 1945 he became Deputy Chief of Naval Operations (Air) and, after a year in command of the Second Fleet, returned to the Navy Department as Vice Chief of Naval Operations. At the outbreak of the Korean War, he was serving as Commander in Chief, Pacific Fleet, and as High Commissioner of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. In addition he was given increased responsibilities concerning Military Assistance Programs in Southeast Asia.
In June 1953, Adm. Radford was appointed Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff by the President and on August 15, 1955 was reappointed for a second term. He retired from Naval service August 1, 1957.
Throughout his career, Adm. Radford was a staunch advocate of a firm U.S. stand against Communist gains. Toward this end he pressed for establishment of a Naval Air Station in the Far East. He strived at all levels to make this vital link in the defense posture of Southeast Asia a reality. The Korean War soon made the need all too obvious and it was finally decided to build it at Cubi Point. Construction companies, considering the feat to be impossible because of the tremendous amount of earth to be moved and the problems of maintaining a vast work force in jungle terrain, refused to bid. The Navy's SeaBees stepped in and completed the project in five years.
"Radford's folly" became a reality. In July 1956, as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he returned to Cubi Point to commission the new station. President Magsaysay of the Philippines joined the U.S. officials in dedicating the field "to the peace and security of the Free World." Almost twenty years later, on 21 December 1972, the Cubi Point Naval Air Station honored Adm. Radford in ceremonies changing the name of its airfield to Arthur W. Radford Field. Adm. Radford had the unusual honor of being able to make the dedication speech himself. The plaque reads:
"Dedicated in honor of Admiral Arthur W. Radford, whose foresight in founding U.S. Naval Air Station Cubi Point has enabled the United States Navy to provide invaluable support to the Seventh Fleet and to carry out its obligations under the Philippines-United States Mutual Defense Treaty."
