10-05-1992, Glace Bay, NS. Drafted round 3 #76 overall by Florida Panthers 2011. Logan Shaw is a Canadian professional ice hockey forward currently under contract to the AHL Toronto Marlies. Shaw played midget hockey within his native Nova Scotia with the Cape Breton Tradesmen before joining the major junior ranks with the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, after he was selected 12th overall in the 2008 QMJHL Entry Draft. After his selection by the Florida Panthers in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, Shaw remained in the QMJHL with the Screaming Eagles before he was traded during the 2011–12 season to the Quebec Remparts on January 7, 2012. On April 22, 2013, Shaw was signed by the Florida Panthers to a three-year entry-level contract. Shaw was assigned to begin his professional career with AHL affiliate, the San Antonio Rampage, in the 2013–14 season. In the 2015–16 season, after five games with new minor league affiliate, the Portland Pirates, Shaw received his first NHL recall to the Panthers on October 29, 2015. He later made his NHL debut with the Panthers in a 3–1 defeat to the Boston Bruins on October 30, 2015. Shaw completed his first NHL season with the Panthers, contributing with 5 goals in 53 games before featuring in 3 post-season games in a first-round defeat. In the 2016–17 season, Shaw was unable to retain his role with the Panthers and was reassigned to inaugural AHL affiliate, the Springfield Thunderbirds. He scored 4 goals in 13 games with the Thunderbirds before he was traded by the Panthers to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for Michael Sgarbossa on November 16, 2016. During the 2017–18 season, after the Ducks picked up J.T. Brown off waivers from the Tampa Bay Lightning, Shaw was placed on waivers having appeared in 42 games for 8 points, and was then claimed by the Montreal Canadiens on January 15, 2018. Shaw was inserted into the Canadiens lineup and played out the remainder of the season, appearing in 30 games for 2 goals and 6 points. As an impending restricted free agent, Shaw was not tendered a qualifying offer from the Canadiens and was released to free agency on June 25, 2018. Un-signed over the summer, Shaw accepted an invitation and attended the Calgary Flames 2018 training camp. Following his release from the Flames AHL affiliate, the Stockton Heat training camp, Shaw returned within the Ducks organization, signing a professional try-out contract with the San Diego Gulls on October 3, 2018. He secured a standard playing contract to remain with the Gulls for the season a week later on October 10, 2018. On November 11, 2018, Shaw left the Gulls to sign a one-year, two-way contract with the Winnipeg Jets.[10] He did not appear in a game with the Jets, but rather spent the remainder of the season with the Manitoba Moose. In 63 games, Shaw led the Moose with 27 goals and finished second in scoring with 46 points. On May 31, 2019, the Jets re-signed Shaw to a one-year, two-way contract extension. On October 9, 2020, Shaw signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Ottawa Senators. He was named the team captain of the Belleville Senators in the American Hockey League on March 1, 2021. Logan Shaw spent the 2021/22 with the Belleville Senators (55 games) and the Ottawa Senators (17 games). In July 2022, Logan Shaw left the Ottawa Senators to join the Toronto Marlies.

I seem to have started a week late, but that's OK. I read the introduction and BASIC TOOLS which is really important. The two tools are the daily morning writings, and the weekly artist's date.
The first is writing 3 pages first thing in te morning (probably after a trip to the toilet for me, but before walking the dogs). That's it - you just write 3 pages, every morning. No restrictions, but don't read it again for a while. Doesn't have to be greate prose or infact make sense at all. But write it every morning.The second is to do something just for my inner child at least once a week, like a film, or trip to an art gallery or some such. But nothing that I "ought" to do, but what I want to do!
And this photo is a contract the author wanted me to sign (my scanner's not working so I took a photo instead). I have.

Trans Florida Aviation F-51N Mustang
#33, 2 Squadron, Sudanese Air Force
Dongola, Sudan, 5 February 1965
Trans Florida Aviation (TFA) was formed in 1947 to acquire surplus F-51 Mustangs and convert them into civilian aircraft. TFA quickly developed several variants based on the P-51B/C and D/K models, including the lightweight Mustang Thoroughbred racer and two-seat Executive Mustang versions. When World War Three broke out in 1950, TFA’s civilian work on the Mustang put it in a good position to win government contracts to refurbish and sustain Mustangs operated by the USAF, ANG and Allied foreign users. TFA produced its first significantly modified combat version of the Mustang, the F-51N, in 1954. This mated the readily available and robust F-51D/K airframe (strengthened for higher maximum take-off weight and heavier ordnance load) with the taller vertical tail and more powerful Packard Merlin V-1750-9 engine of the F-51H. Depending on customer requirements, F-51Ns were built without or without wingtip fuel tanks. The company provided a range of sustainment services for military Mustangs into the 1970s, before resuming its civilian focus which continues to today. Although TFA flew several Turbo Mustang prototypes (including the Lycoming T55-powered F-51TL and the Orenda Astazou-powered F-51TO), these efforts failed to find customers.
When Sudan gained its independence from Egypt and the Royalist British Government in Exile in 1956, it inherited a squadron of ex-RAF F-51Ds. These aircraft were surplus RAAF P-51Ks, converted to F-51D standard by TFA in 1954 and issued to the RAF. Transferred to the Sudanese Air Corps (from 1962, the Sudanese Air Force) in 1956, the aircraft proved so valuable on COIN duties that an order was placed in 1959 for 18 F-51Ns with wingtip fuel tanks. Some of the F-51Ns were Sudanese F-51Ds converted on-site at Dongola, others being F-51Ds converted in America. This aircraft, #33, was the last Sudanese F-51D converted to F-51N at Dongola and was redelivered in December 1964.
TFA benefited considerably from a 1955 UN Resolution that required all member states to stand-up a specified minimum air defence capability by 1958. The Resolution’s Stage One Capability demanded aircraft with a minimum level speed of 400 mph, leading to a scramble for World War Two era piston-engined types, including Bearcats, Corsairs, Mustangs, Thunderbolts and Kaiser-built P-50 Spitfires. Stage Two Capability, to be reached by 1965, required jet powered types with a minimum speed of 500 mph. Stage Three, enforced from 1974, required supersonic performance. Nations unable to establish and maintain such a capability were required to contract other UN members to provide air defence. The overall result was the sale of large numbers of fighters to countries that didn't overwise need them. These demands saw Sudan's Mustangs officially replaced in the air defence role by second-hand Canadair Sabre FGA.6s in 1960, which in turn were replaced by the Mirage 5SU in 1972. For thoroughly entertaining discussions of this controversial program, see Roy Braybrook’s books BOOM! A Personal View of The Great UN Fighter Boondoggle and Dogfight! Confessions of a Travelling Fighter Salesman.
Although the Egyptian government had “encouraged” the decolonisation of Sudan, the country’s independence was concluded with mutual border areas still in dispute. Egypt and Sudan maintained conflicting claims over two areas extending north and south of the 1899 Treaty boundary along the 22nd Parallel. This arrangement saw Egypt occupying a small salient east of Wadi Halfa and Sudan "administrating" a larger patch of territory alongside the Red Sea. With the start of the UN bombing campaign against Red-backed revolutionary Egypt on 1 February 1965, Sudan launched an offensive to drive the Egyptians out of their zone of occupation south of the nominal 1899 Treaty border. Forward deployed to Wadi Halfa, the Embraer EMB.326GS of Sudan’s 4 Squadron launched attacks on Egyptian positions from 1 February. This action brought an Egyptian response in the disputed, Sudanese occupied area to the north of the 1899 border. With UN help, Sudan successfully pushed the Egyptians out of the disputed areas and retained control over them until 1980.
Supporting the Sudanese Army, the F-51Ns of 2 Squadron performed strike, CAS, FAC, Sandy CSAR fire support, convoy escort and armed reconnaissance missions throughout these operations. The loadout of four Mk.82 bombs on TERS and two LAU-3 rocket pods was common. Few details have been published and little is known about the individuals involved, but one Mustang was lost to ground fire, north of the Egyptian town of Al Shalateen. #33 is depicted here as photographed by a Time photojournalist at Dongola on 5 February, 1965.
Sudan retired its Mustangs in favour of another North American design, the OV-10A Bronco, in 1968. Aircraft #33 was sold back to TAF in 1969. Shipped back to the USA, it was sold on the civilian market in 1974 and is now on indoor display at The Defenders Air Museum, Chino, California.
Note that the Sudanese Air Force roundel seen here features the Arab Revolt colours of red, white and black with a green wedge at the top. This was one of several semi-official Sudanese Air Force roundels simultaneously used during the 1960s, the variations reflecting the states in which the aircraft were permanently based. For example, units based at Khartoum Air Base, in the Federally-administered Khartoum State, used the national colours of blue, yellow and green for their markings: in the mid-1960s, this applied to the Xavantes and transports based there. Those based at Dongola in the state of Northern Sudan, such as the Mustangs of 2 Squadron, used the Arab Revolt colours of green, red, black and white with a green wedge at the top of the roundel. By contrast, the Sabres of 5 Squadron at Port Sudan in the Red Sea state used the Arab Revolt colours, but with the green segment located to the left of the roundel. This latter style of roundel was standardised across the SAF from 1970, as it reflected the design of the new national flag adopted in May of that year.

Washington Post reporter, Jane Black(right), takes notes. Agriculture Marketing Service (AMS) purchases a variety of food products in support of the National School Lunch program and other Federal Feeding programs. These purchases help to stabilize prices in agricultural commodity markets by balancing supply and demand. Some of the foods purchased under these programs include fruits and vegetables, beef and pork, poultry and egg products, and fish.
