His obsession with painting, combined with mental illness, propels him through an unhappy life full of failures and unrewarding relationships. He fails at being a preacher to coal miners. He fails in his relationships with women. He earns some respect among his fellow painters, especially Paul Gauguin, but he does not get along with them. He only manages to sell one painting in his lifetime. The one constant good in his life is his brother Theo, who is unwavering in his moral and financial support.

(Denmark) – See all my reviews When I hear the name Vincente Minnelli certain scenes pop up on my inner screeningroom: A tracking shot at the fair (Some came running), the low tracking zoom towards Douglas and Turner at the pool (Bad and the Beautiful), snowmen (Meet me in St Louis) and the agony in Douglas's face in "Lust for life"; in fact as soon as his redbearded agonized face pops up, all the other movies fade away and "Lust for life" takes over my inner screening room. But apart from being my favorite Minnelli movie, its a movie that more than any other shows his genius in use of colors; every scene is composed in breathtaking technicolor with the deepest respect for Van Gogh's own use of color, and Douglas's acting is filled with the same agony and passion as the strokes of Van Gogh's brush. As the other great movies who uses color to its fullest (Wizard of Oz, Black Narcissus, Ten Commandments), the simularities between the director and the painter is obvious. Hence, Minnelli's struggle for "painting" the scenes with the richness of technicolor becomes an echo of Van Gogh. It also reads as a textbook in composition from Steinberg's Dead Space to Eisenstein's juxtapositions. In all, Minnelli is of great skill and uses it to the fullest. The story, which focuses on the struggle for a new way of expression, is tame at times and the acting (apart from Douglas) seems static most of the times, but the tortured face and body of Douglas and the use of color makes this one of the greatest achievements in MGM's history and one of the best movies Minnelli ever made. 27 of 34 people found this review helpful.

Which German author, most famous for his anti-war novel 'All Quiet On The Western Front', was born on June 22nd. 1898?	All Quiet on the Western Front: Biography: Erich Maria Remarque \| Novelguide All Quiet on the Western Front: Biography: Erich Maria Remarque Total Votes: 3617 Biography Erich Maria Remarque was born on June 22, 1898, in Osnabruck, Germany. His father was a bookbinder. While attending the University of Munster, Remarque was drafted into the German army at the age of eighteen. He fought on the Western Front in World War I and was wounded five times. After the war he worked at a variety of jobs: teacher, stonecutter at a cemetery, racing-car driver and as a sportswriter. In his spare time he was working on All Quiet on the Western Front, his novel of World War I. The novel was published in 1929 and was an immediate worldwide success, selling almost 1,500,000 copies in the first year. It was made into a film in 1930, which became one of the most famous anti-war films of all time. Remarque wrote nine more novels, some of which were also made into films. The novels were The Road Back (1931), Three Comrades (1936), Flotsam (1941), Arch of Triumph (1945), Spark of Life (1952), A Time to Love and a Time to Die (1954), The Black Obelisk (1956), Heaven has no Favorites (1961) and Night in Lisbon (1962). None of these novels achieved the runaway success of his first one. Remarque left Germany for Switzerland in 1932. His books and films were banned by the Nazis in 1933, and in 1938 he was deprived of his German citizenship. In 1939, he visited the United States for the first time, and in 1947 he became a United States citizen. Shortly after this he settled in Porto Ronco, Switzerland, on Lake Maggiore, where he lived with his second wife, the American movie star Paulette Goddard, until his death on September 25, 1970.

Who is the BBC Radio 2 commentator for the Eurovision Song Contest?	Erich Maria Remarque \| Article about Erich Maria Remarque by The Free Dictionary Erich Maria Remarque \| Article about Erich Maria Remarque by The Free Dictionary http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/Erich+Maria+Remarque Also found in: Dictionary , Wikipedia . Remarque, Erich Maria Born June 22, 1898, in Osnabrück; died Sept. 25, 1970, in Locarno, Switzerland. German writer. Remarque fought in World War I. After the war he worked as a teacher, commercial agent, reporter, and editor. His novel All Quiet on the Western Front (1929; Russian translation, 1929) gained world renown. Beginning in 1932 he lived abroad; subsequently, the fascist government deprived him of German citizenship. In All Quiet on the Western Front, a representative work of the “lost generation,” Remarque depicted the dull, everyday routine at the front, which retained only elementary forms of the solidarity that united the soldiers in the face of death. In the novel The Road Back (1931; Russian translation, 1936) he showed that, with the war over, social inequality destroyed the illusory harmony that existed in the brotherhood of the front. The tragic idea that friendship between men and love are the last refuge against hostile forces was at the base of the novel Three Comrades (1938; Russian translation, 1958). In the novel Arch of Triumph (1946; Russian translation, 1959) the antifascist theme received a striking treatment. After the novel Spark of Life (1952), which is set in a Nazi concentration camp, Remarque wrote the novel A Time to Live and a Time to Die (1954; Russian translation, 1956; published in the United States as A Time to Love and a Time to Die), a collective portrait of the lost generation during World War II. In the novel The Black Obelisk (1956; Russian translation, 1961) the writer sought to warn, in light of the tragic experience of the past, against a resurgence of the militaristic spirit in the Federal Republic of Germany. His late works—the novels Gebortes Leben (1959; Russian translation, 1960) and The Night in Lisbon (1963; Russian translation, 1965)—are marred by literary clichés. Individualistic pacifism and the lack of a distinct positive program constitute the weak side of Remarque’s work. Remarque’s success with readers is based on the social criticism contained in his best works and the humanity and moral fascination of the books’ heroes. REFERENCES	i don't know
Which BBC journalist was awarded the Golden Nymph Award at the Monte Carlo Festival in 1984 for his reports from Ethiopia?	Michael Buerk Booking Agent - Contact NMP Live Agency Awards Hosting & Presenting About Books & DVDs Award-winning journalist Michael Buerk began his career with the Bromsgrove Weekly Messenger in 1967 and joined the BBC in 1970. His subsequent 20 years as a foreign correspondent took him to over 53 countries and included a four-year posting to South Africa at the height of apartheid, until he was asked to leave the country by the then government because of his uncompromising reporting. However, Michael Buerk is probably most famous for his reporting of the Ethiopian famine in October 1984 which inspired the Band Aid charity record, and for which he was awarded the Golden Nymph award at the Monte Carlo festival for his reports on the famine from Korem in Ethiopia. Michael later said that the broadcast was one of "the most influential pieces of television ever broadcast prompting a surge of generosity across the world for Ethiopia that raised more than $130 million". In 1991 he was airlifted out of Addis Ababa after a munitions dump exploded, killing his Kenyan sound recordist, John Mathai, and injuring Mohammed Amin, the cameraman who had accompanied him to Ethiopia in 1984. By this time, he was turning his hand to presenting, and had become one of the main anchors for the BBC Nine O'Clock News. He also began presenting non-news programmes such as BBC1's 999, and on BBC Radio 4, the ethical debating programme, The Moral Maze, and interview series The Choice. Michael Buerk has won numerous awards including Radio Broadcaster of the Year, the Royal Television Society's Journalist of the Year and the BAFTA News Award.

Who wrote the children's book 'Green Eggs And Ham', published in 1960?	'Green Eggs and Ham' is Published \| World History Project 1960 'Green Eggs and Ham' is Published Sam-I-Am is a relentless crusader who simply wants people to enjoy green eggs and ham and is willing to go to any lengths to get the unbelievers to at least give them a try. The original master of rhyme, Sam-I-Am asks everyone to consider the possibilities of eating green eggs and ham “in a house” or “with a mouse.” Sam-I-Am opens the readers mind to endless imagination that is only possible when someone is willing to try. Source: seussdude.com Added by: Colin Harris Green Eggs and Ham is one of Seuss's "Beginner Books", written in a very simple vocabulary for beginning readers. The vocabulary of the text consists of just fifty different words, of which 49 are monosyllabic (the one exception being "anywhere"). It averages 5.7 words per sentence and 1.02 syllables per word, giving it an exceptionally low Flesch-Kincaid grade level of -1.3. Bennett Cerf, Dr. Seuss's publisher, wagered $50 that Seuss could not write a book using only fifty different words. The bet came after Seuss completed The Cat in the Hat, which used 225 words. The fifty words used are: a, am, and, anywhere, are, be, boat, box, car, could, dark, do, eat, eggs, fox, goat, good, green, ham, here, house, I, if, in, let, like, may, me, mouse, not, on, or, rain, Sam, say, see, so, thank, that, the, them, there, they, train, tree, try, will, with, would, you Forty-six of the 50 words (all but car, Sam, train, and try) are of Germanic origin. The tale is in the form of a cumulative tale, with a list of circumstances which gradually increases as the story progresses. Thus, one of Sam's friend's refusals goes: I could not, would not, in a house. I would not, could not, with a mouse. I would not eat them with a fox. I would not eat them in a box. I would not eat them here or there. I would not eat them anywhere. I would not eat green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam-I-am. The meter of Green Eggs and Ham is a combination of trochaic and iambic tetrameter; for details, see Dr. Seuss's meters.	Dr. Seuss
By what name do the Italians know the city of Florence?	Plot Analysis of Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss \| Web Publishing on Joomla CMS \| Chicagoland IL USA \| Ed Eusebio Blogfolio Plot Analysis of Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss Plot Analysis of Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss Written by Ed Eusebio I know this is what you writers have been waiting for! A brief plot analysis of Dr. Seuss's fabulous kids book Green Eggs and Ham. I wrote it up for a writers group I belong to, for fun. (Yes, this is one of those odd things I do for fun.) A seemingly simple children's story, Seuss's book actually has perfect plotting and exposition. It illustrates (pun intended) a lot about what a good writer can do with limited space and words— write a book that lives on for generations! Exposition Setting: Unnamed public areas in and around possibly Whoville. This book is essentially a Road Story, taking place walking, in a car, train and boat. Note: Book first published in 1960 (during Civil Rights, Cold War, Vietnam conflicts). This book reflects the conservative establishment vs. liberal youth conflict at the time, as well as the Establishment / Hippie generation gap. Protagonist: Unnamed man, older, book reading, stuffed shirt (hereafter referred to as SS), tends to be angry, negative and alone. Antagonist: Hyperactive, challenging, younger, exhibitionist Sam, tends to be happy and positive, enjoying the tacit support of characters around him, who good-naturedly go along with his schemes. Conflict: Stuffed Shirt (SS) sees Sam cavorting around in the “park” and states loudly that he doesn't like him. Sam counters by inquiring about SS's like for Green Eggs and Ham, which he presents to SS. Note that this green dish is likely a metaphor for Sam's strange liberal ideas, which seem so unnatural and wrong to the establishment figure SS. Climax SS is pushed to the edge (literally underwater, after their boat is destroyed and sinks after another confrontation). Surrounded by all that he has rejected, SS agrees to try Green Eggs and Ham, after Sam changes his tactic to “Try them.” SS finds that he likes them. Epiphany moment for SS. Dénouement SS goes on to declare that he will eat Green Eggs and Ham with all the previously rejected settings and characters. Resolution With his arm around Sam's shoulder, SS declares his like of Green Eggs and Ham than thanks Sam for his efforts. The empty plate in his hand, a symbol of his acceptance (consumption) of new, youthful and strange ideas.	i don't know
In Basketball, what is the term for the offence of carrying the ball for too many steps without dribbling?	How to Dribble a Basketball: 15 Steps (with Pictures) - wikiHow http://pad1.whstatic.com/images/thumb/e/e6/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-1-Version-3.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-1-Version-3.jpg /7/7c/Dribble a Basketball Step 1 Version 2.360p.mp4 Not only will your fingertips give you more control than your palms - you'll also be able to dribble faster. Indiana Pacers player Paul George strongly recommends against palm-to-ball contact, as it "slows down the whole dribbling process." [1] 2 Get in a low stance. When dribbling, it's not smart to keep an erect, up-and-down posture. In this stance, the ball will have to travel all the way from your upper body to the ground and back again as it bounces, leaving it wide open for a defender to steal. Before you start to dribble, get in a low, defensive stance. Spread your feet shoulder-width apart. Bend your knees and drop your hips back slightly (as if you were sitting in a chair). Get your head up and your upper body mostly erect. This is a good, balanced foundation - it protects the ball while giving you plenty of mobility. Don't bend at the waist (as if you were bending over to pick something up). Besides being bad for your back, this stance is fairly unbalanced, meaning it's easier to accidentally stumble forward, which, depending on the in-game situation, can be a big mistake. 3 Bounce the ball off of the ground. This is it! Handling the ball with your fingertips, take it in your dominant hand and bounce it off the ground. Bounce it firmly, but not so hard that you have to use serious arm strength or you have trouble controlling it. Your dribble should be quick, yet steady and controlled. Each time the ball returns to your hand, without grabbing it or catching it in any way, make contact with your fingertips and push it back down with a controlled motion of the wrist and forearm - again, you shouldn't be tiring your arm out from dribbling. The ball should hit the floor at a spot slightly to the side and ahead of the foot that's on the same side of your body as your dribbling hand. http://pad3.whstatic.com/images/thumb/4/4e/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-3-Version-3.jpg http://pad3.whstatic.com/images/thumb/4/4e/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-3-Version-3.jpg /8/8c/Dribble a Basketball Step 3 Version 2.360p.mp4 When you're practicing dribbling for the very first time, it's O.K. to keep your eyes on the ball as you dribble until you get the hang of things. However, you should switch to dribbling without looking at the ball as soon as you can. It's expected that you'll be able to do this at nearly all levels of play. 4 Keep your hand on top of the ball. When you dribble, it's important to keep the motion of the ball under control. You never want the ball to get away from you, as this can give the other team possession of the ball for free. Try to keep the palm of your hand directly over the ball as you move so that the ball, on its "up" bounce, will bounce right into your fingertips. This will give you more control over the ball as you move around the court. http://pad1.whstatic.com/images/thumb/a/a8/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-4-Version-3.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-4-Version-3.jpg http://pad1.whstatic.com/images/thumb/a/a8/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-4-Version-3.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-4-Version-3.jpg /4/44/Dribble a Basketball Step 4 Version 2.360p.mp4 Another reason to focus on keeping your hand over the ball at all times while dribbling is that momentarily "catching" the ball on its underside at any point results in a penalty called a carrying violation. To avoid this, keep your palm over the ball and facing the floor as you dribble. 5 Keep the ball low. The shorter and quicker the ball's bounces, the harder it is for your opponent to steal. One sure-fire way to make your ball's bounces shorter is simply to bounce it closer to the ground. Since you're already in your low stance (with your knees bent and your hips dropped back), it shouldn't feel very unnatural to move the apex of the ball's bounce to somewhere between your knee and hip. Keeping your knees bent, drop your dominant hand down to the side of your leg and dribble with low, quick motions. http://pad2.whstatic.com/images/thumb/2/22/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-5-Version-3.jpg http://pad3.whstatic.com/images/thumb/6/63/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-6-Version-3.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-6-Version-3.jpg /a/a1/Dribble a Basketball Step 6 Version 2.360p.mp4 Serious practice is the only way to get truly confident in your dribbling ability. When you play basketball, you can't waste time focusing on the minutiae of your dribbling technique. Dribbling has to be second nature - you need to be able to "trust" that the ball will return to your hand without watching it. 2 Be aware of where you dribble the ball. When you're dribbling during a game, the way you dribble the ball should change based on the positions of other players and conditions around you. If you are in open court (such as if you're moving the ball up the court after the opposing team has scored a point), you can dribble ball in front of you, which will let you run as fast as possible. However, when you're near defenders (especially if one's guarding you), bounce the ball at your side (just outside and ahead of your shoe) while assuming a low, defensive stance. This way, the defender will have to reach across your body to get at the ball, having a much harder time reaching it and possibly drawing a foul. http://pad2.whstatic.com/images/thumb/d/da/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-7-Version-3.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-7-Version-3.jpg http://pad3.whstatic.com/images/thumb/a/ab/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-8-Version-3.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-8-Version-3.jpg /7/7c/Dribble a Basketball Step 8 Version 2.360p.mp4 You can use the hand that isn't dribbling as an arm bar. Raise your non-dribbling arm and make a fist, presenting the side of your forearm to your opponent. Be careful when using arm bars. Don't push the defender, strike the defender with your fist, or drive through the defender using your arm bar as a wedge. Instead, use an arm bar defensively (like you might hold a shield) [2] to keep space between yourself and the defensive player. 4 Don't stop. In basketball, offensive players are allowed to start and stop their dribbles only once each time they have the ball. When you're dribbling in a game, don't pick up your dribble unless you know what you're going to do with the basketball. Once you stop, you can't dribble again, and, if s/he is smart, your defender will capitalize on your inability to move. http://pad2.whstatic.com/images/thumb/f/f9/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-9-Version-3.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-9-Version-3.jpg http://pad3.whstatic.com/images/thumb/f/f9/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-9-Version-3.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-9-Version-3.jpg /6/6c/Dribble a Basketball Step 9 Version 2.360p.mp4 If you stop dribbling, your options are to pass the ball, to shoot the ball, or to have the ball stolen from you. If you're planning to do one of the first two, stop dribbling and then do that thing immediately - otherwise, the defense will react and you may have the third option happen whether you like it or not! 5 Know when to pass the ball. Dribbling isn't always the smartest way to move the ball around the court. Often, it's better to pass. A good passing game is one of the cornerstones of an effective offense. Passing the ball is faster than moving while dribbling, can be used to misdirect the opposing team, and can be used to get the ball to a teammate through a section of the court occupied by defenders. Don't be a ball hog - if dribbling to the hoop means going through multiple defenders, it's usually a good idea to pass the ball to a teammate who has a better chance of making a shot. http://pad2.whstatic.com/images/thumb/0/02/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-10-Version-2.jpg http://pad2.whstatic.com/images/thumb/5/5f/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-12-Version-2.jpg /4/4a/Dribble a Basketball Step 12 Version 2.360p.mp4 The triple threat keeps the ball close to the body with the strong hand grasping it on top and the weak hand grasping it on the bottom. The player assumes a low stance and keeps his or her elbows back, bent at ninety degree angles. S/he leans forward over the ball slightly. From this stance, it's very difficult for a defender to steal the ball. 2 Practice the "crossover" technique. A "crossover" is a dribbling technique used to destabilize and misdirect a defender. The player dribbles the ball in front of his or her body, transferring it between hands in a "V" shape. By "selling" his or her movements, the player can get the defender to move toward the ball while it's in one hand, then quickly cross the ball over to the other hand, allowing the player to quickly dribble around the defender or pass the ball while s/he's off-balance. http://pad2.whstatic.com/images/thumb/4/49/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-13-Version-2.jpg http://pad3.whstatic.com/images/thumb/4/49/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/300px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-13-Version-2.jpg /2/26/Dribble a Basketball Step 13 Version 2.360p.mp4 One useful related dribbling technique is the "In & Out Dribble." Essentially, the player pretends that s/he is going to crossover, but keeps the ball in the same hand. 3 Practice dribbling behind your back. When you're covered by a defender that you just can't shake, you may need to bust out some seriously fancy dribbles. One classic move for "juking" a defender is to dribble behind your back. This move requires serious practice, but it's worth it - when done well, a behind the back move can leave a defender's head spinning. http://pad1.whstatic.com/images/thumb/f/f7/Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-14-Version-2.jpg/550px-Dribble-a-Basketball-Step-14-Version-2.jpg Set up an obstacle course. You can use cones or trash cans or even a shoe. Use your off-hand! If you just started playing,start off with the easy moves like a cross over and then get in to harder moves. Practice with a friend. When you get really good at dribbling don't use all your cool moves in a game,only the ones that you have mastered.So then you won't lose the ball while showing off your moves. Know your basketball. A standard men's basketball is 29.5 (inches in circumference), whereas a standard women's basketball is 28.5. This difference in size matters, especially while dribbling and shooting. Also, some basketballs are designed for indoor or outdoor use; bearing this in mind will prevent premature wear on your ball. Start slow. Begin with stationary drills and work your way up to full court running drills. As you build confidence, you can make the obstacle courses more challenging or get a friend to defend you. Squeeze a stress ball or tennis ball when you aren't on the court. It will improve the strength in your hands and give you greater control while dribbling and shooting. Dribble with TWO basketballs. Here are some good ball handling drills Practice with a tennis ball. Practice taking big steps into a layup.	Travel
Who was the leader of the Liberal Party in Britain from 1967 to 1976?	Basketball Violations Return to Content Basketball Violations In basketball, players are constantly moving, cutting, dribbling and handling the ball. Basketball violations do occur frequently as players move and handle the ball and are constantly in contact with the basketball. It is a natural part of the game. A violation is an infraction of the results that does not result in a free throw. However, the ball is turned over to the opposing team for a throw-in. Basically, there are two categories of violations- Ball handling violations and Time violations. Ball handling violations These types of basketball violations take place when the basketball is in their possession. Double dribble – There are two situations where this violation can take place. In the first case, when a player dribbles the ball with two hands at the same time. Secondly, when the player stops dribbling, holds the ball, and starts dribbling again. Over-and-back – This violation occurs when a player crosses over the midcourt line to the frontcourt and then crosses back into the backcourt. Traveling – Again, there are two situations. When you stop dribbling and then move or change your pivot foot. Secondly, when you take more than one and a half steps without dribbling while you have the ball. Time violations It is important to strictly adhere to the specific timings. Basketball violations take place whenever the time restrictions are broken. Ten-seconds-in-the-backcourt – The offensive team takes ten seconds or more to move the basketball across the midcourt line into the front court. Lane violation – A lane violation takes place when you enter the lane too soon during a free throw situation. This result in either a turnover or the other team gets another free throw attempt. Five-second possession violation – This violation occur when a ballhandler is being defended within six feet in the frontcourt, and keeps the basketball for five or more seconds. Five-second inbound violation – This happens when, while passing the ball inbounds, the player does not pass the ball to a teammate within five seconds after gaining possession. Three-second rule – This violation occurs whenever an offensive player is in the free throw lane for longer than 3 seconds. Basketball violations – Offense and Defense Violations committed by offense. These include: Walk or traveling violation – This case usually occurs when after rebounding, after receiving the ball from the pass, and when making a move to drive towards the basket, the ball handler takes too many steps without dribbling the ball. Over-and-back or Backcourt violation – This can happen in two situations. The player from the front court passes the ball to his teammate in the backcourt. Secondly, when the player holding the ball crosses over the mid court line and then returns at the back court. Double dribble – In basketball violations, this involves the ball handler. The player either dribbles with both hands, or if the player dribbles, holds the ball, and starts dribbling again. Offensive foul – The ball handler attacks to the basket and knowingly hits the defending player. Offensive goal tending – The player tries to intercept the ball while it is on the rim or on the way down to the basket. Five-second inbound violation – This violation occurs if there are more than 5 seconds delay in the inbounder passing the ball to his teammate. Three-second violation – This happens when the offensive player stays inside the paint for 3 seconds Ten-second backcourt violation – This occurs if there is more than 10 second delays by the offensive team in crossing the ball to the mid-court. Basketball violations committed by the defense Foul – Many instances result in a foul call. For example, if a defensive player makes an illegal contact with the ball handler, blocking, holding, pushing, charging and tripping. Goaltending – This is same as offensive goaltending by the defending player Three-second defensive violation- This is used to keep the defensive team from using the zone defense.	i don't know

This is a rare appearance of Al Read on another show, Variety Bandbox, in December 1951. Al Read (3 March 1909 -- 9 September 1987) was a British radio comedian active throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Read was born in Broughton, Salford, Lancashire and was a sausage maker in his father's business. He became known as a popular after-dinner speaker with wry and well-observed humour in clubs. In 1950 Read made his radio début on the BBC. His comedy was based around the monologue form, but he also became known for dialogues in which he played both voices. His humour was observational and was about northern English working class people, often in a domestic situation. The Al Read Show was one of the most popular radio comedy shows in the UK in the 1950s and 1960s. Up to 35 million people listened to it each week. His catchphrases "Right Monkey" and "You'll be lucky, I say you'll be lucky!" were well known. In 1963 he headed a variety format for ITV called Life and Al Read which was apparently unscripted and was broadcast live. In 1966 another ITV series called Al Read Says What a Life! was broadcast. He also worked extensively on the variety stage. It was generally considered that sound radio was his best medium. In 1954 he appeared high on the bill at the Royal Variety Performance at the London Palladium. In 1959 he appeared with comedian Jimmy Clitheroe in the Royal Northern Variety Performance, in the presence of the Queen Mother, at the Palace Theatre, Manchester. The introduction to his radio show was usually "Al Read: introducing us to ourselves"; and he himself described his work as "pictures of life". His monologues were perceptive about the human condition, and many monologue recordings are still available from the BBC. Variety Bandbox was a British radio variety show transmitted by BBC Radio on the Light Programme. Featuring a mixture of comic performances and music, the show helped to launch the careers of a number of leading British performers. Variety Bandbox was first broadcast in 1941 and, presented by Philip Slessor, became a feature of Sunday evenings until the early 1950s. Hosting duties would later be taken over by Derek Roy. Amongst those who launched their careers on the show was Frankie Howerd, who first appeared on Variety Bandbox in 1947 following a provincial tour. Howerd was to become a fixture of the show and honed his catch phrase-driven comedic style in these appearances. Tony Hancock also featured on the show early in his career. March 1950 saw the debut of a fortnightly series within the show called Blessem Hall which featured several characters vocied by a young Peter Sellers in one of his earliest performances, alongside Miriam Karlin. Arthur English, who debuted on the show in 1949, also gained fame through his broadcasts and was for a time 'resident comedian' on the show, despite his tendency to upset the producers by also including visual gags in his act. The show also provided Bill Kerr with his first break in the UK whilst Max Wall was a regular performer on the show. Although not a performer on Variety Bandbox, Eric Sykes cut his comedy teeth as a scriptwriter on the show. As well as comedy Variety Bandbox also featured big band music with the likes of Ted Heath, Geraldo, Ambrose, Woolf Phillips and Joe Loss all leading their orchestras. Category	Al Read
What was the nickname of Ethiopian athlete Miruts Yifter?	al read in '50s Radio Forum My Recent Posts Al Read was at a Manchester hotel giving a little after-dinner chat to his clients at his annual do and was overheard by BBC producer Bowker Andrews who popped in each night for a drink after work. He stepped into the room to hear Al and was entranced by his tales of he and his wife and of a painter his wife had invited to paint a back bedroom. Bowker approached him and asked about his work as a comedian and Al replied that he wasn't a comedian but a pie and sausage maker and this was his annual freebie dinner and booze up for his clients. The bottom line is that Bowker asked him to come to the BBC studio the following day and that meeting resulted in Al's first BBC radio series. Prior to that Al had not been on radio, tv or the stage and he was then in his 40s.	i don't know

Published on May 29, 2013 Pulp Fiction is a 1994 American crime film directed by Quentin Tarantino, who co-wrote its screenplay with Roger Avary. The film is known for its eclectic dialogue, ironic mix of humor and violence, nonlinear storyline, and a host of cinematic allusions and pop culture references. The film was nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture; Tarantino and Avary won for Best Original Screenplay. It was also awarded the Palme d'Or at the 1994 Cannes Film Festival. A major critical and commercial success, it revitalized the career of its leading man, John Travolta, who received an Academy Award nomination, as did costars Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman. Directed in a highly stylized manner, Pulp Fiction connects the intersecting storylines of Los Angeles mobsters, fringe players, small-time criminals, and a mysterious briefcase. Considerable screen time is devoted to conversations and monologues that reveal the characters' senses of humor and perspectives on life. The film's title refers to the pulp magazines and hardboiled crime novels popular during the mid-20th century, known for their graphic violence and punchy dialogue. Pulp Fiction is self-referential from its opening moments, beginning with a title card that gives two dictionary definitions of "pulp." The plot, as in many of Tarantino's other works, is presented out of chronological sequence. The picture's self-reflexivity, unconventional structure, and extensive use of homage and pastiche have led critics to describe it as a prime example of postmodern film. Considered by some critics a black comedy, the film is also frequently labeled a "neo-noir." Critic Geoffrey O'Brien argues otherwise: "The old-time noir passions, the brooding melancholy and operatic death scenes, would be altogether out of place in the crisp and brightly lit wonderland that Tarantino conjures up. [It is] neither neo-noir nor a parody of noir." Similarly, Nicholas Christopher calls it "more gangland camp than neo-noir," and Foster Hirsch suggests that its "trippy fantasy landscape" characterizes it more definitively than any genre label. Pulp Fiction is viewed as the inspiration for many later movies that adopted various elements of its style. The nature of its development, marketing, and distribution and its consequent profitability had a sweeping effect on the field of independent cinema. Considered a cultural watershed, Pulp Fiction's influence has been felt in several other media, and it is widely regarded as one of the greatest films of all time.	Quentin Tarantino
Which town is the administrative centre of Derbyshire?	Pulp Fiction - Review - The Satirist Pulp Fiction See also reviews of Kill Bill and Kill Bill 2 and also Tarantino satires: Harder and Scent of a Banknote . Directed by Quentin Tarantino Written by Quentin Tarantino & Roger Avary Cast Amanda Plummer.... Honey Bunny (Yolanda) Laura Lovelace.... Waitress Samuel L. Jackson.... Jules Winnfield Phil LaMarr.... Marvin Uma Thurman.... Mia Wallace Spoiler Alert: This review assumes you have seen Pulp Fiction. Love it or hate it, and most people love it, Pulp Fiction was probably the most influential movie made in the 1990�s. And its influence persists. It opened up a lot of new territory, especially in putting comedy-of-manners dialogue in the mouths of killers and other moral degenerates. Pulp Fiction was so hip and cool when it came out in 1994, it inspired countless imitators, and influenced other great movie-makers. This essay discusses: the use of violence; the comic dialogue, and the structure of Pulp Fiction. Violence in Broad Daylight Perhaps a secret to the impact of Pulp Fiction is that most of the violence takes place in broad daylight. Most of the violent scenes take place during the day: Pumpkin and Honey Bunny�s restaurant hold-up; Jules and Vincent�s killing of the young drug-dealers in the apartment; Vincent�s shooting of Marvin in the back seat of the car and subsequent clean-up at Jimmy and Bonnie�s house; Butch�s killing of Vincent; Butch�s scenes with Marsellus and Zed. As we watch hit-men and mobsters and stick-up artists move through their familiar LA suburban world without fear of police�or of anything�our own terror is heightened. Suburban America suddenly seems vulnerable to the violent acts of smooth-talking, pop-savvy contract killers. There are really not that many deaths in Pulp Fiction, but the aura of violence is ever-present. The violence is handled effectively. For example, Vincent is killed, having been caught off-guard, while engaged in the very human act of taking a shit. But of course, it�s a plot device, because bad things happen every time Vincent goes to the bathroom. The most disturbing scene is when Vincent must stab Mia in the heart with a hypodermic needle to resuscitate her after an overdose. I literally winced and turned away confronted with seeing such an act, despite having watched slasher movies since the age of nine�when a character is alive on the screen we care. Reputedly, this scene was shot in reverse; Travolta pulled the needle away from Thurman and the shot was reversed. Another way the aura of violence is created is that the characters talk about acts of violence that we don�t see. For example, Vincent speaks with both Jules and later with Mia about the Samoan guy being pushed out a window for giving Mia a foot massage. Or we hear about Butch killing a man in the ring, which we don�t see. Or again: the fact that Wolf writes down everyone�s names when he hears of Jules and Vincent�s problems suggests the possibility of him just killing them all to solve the problem. All this daytime violence has a surreal impact. Pumpkin and Honey Bunny hold up a coffee shop, a place where suburbanites normally feel safe. Jules and Vincent calmly dispatch four or five college students at 7:30 in the morning. Then they casually talk about whether or not it was a miracle that they were not shot. �Shortly after, Vincent shoots Marvin in the car, and they drive around in broad daylight with blood all over their windshield. They drive to Jimmy�s, where they stand outside covered in blood while Winston the Wolf hoses all the blood off their bodies. Later, Butch shoots Vincent in his own bathroom in the morning, and then tries to run down Marsellus in broad daylight. As they stagger around the suburban intersection covered with blood, Marsellus thinks nothing of drawing his gun and firing on Butch, but hits an innocent woman to the horror of on-lookers. Butch and Marsellus end up in a pawn shop, where the owner takes them prisoner to sexually abuse them and perhaps kill them after. This violence punctuates our sense of suburban safety. Most crime-genre movies take place in urban, nocturnal settings; Pulp Fiction takes place largely in suburban daylight. The few night scenes are romantic interludes: Vincent�s date with Mia Wallace (which though not violent is still disturbing) and Butch�s dialogues with the lady cab driver and with his girlfriend, after his boxing match. All three segments suggest imminent or possible violence. The first titled sequence �Vincent Vega and Marsellus Wallace's Wife� (after the two violent scenes preceding the titled sequences) fills us with the fear that Vincent will sleep with Mia and thus be caught and executed by Marsellus. The fact that other events occur which themselves are shocking is a plus, because the unexpected happens. The audience knows that the characters will make the wrong decision, so there is a sense of impending doom, followed by a surreally horrible nightmare come true. When Vincent tells himself in the bathroom that he will just have one drink and go home, we fear that he won�t do that, and the fact that he tells himself this makes it very effective. When he says �Home� it sounds so peaceful and uneventful that we know we won�t see him get there; meanwhile Mia undresses herself (just for comfort, not necessarily to seduce him but we don�t know that). �Instead, she vomits up the $5 milkshake. (Of course it�s ironic that Vincent thinks it�s so expensive when previously we saw him with a massive wad of cash, and willing to pay $1500 for heroin). While Vincent drives Mia to Lance�s we fear she will die and Marsellus will kill Vincent. When they�re there we feel the dealer�s frenzy that he will be caught with a dead body. He�s trying to keep quiet and Vincent simply crashes the car into the front yard in the middle of the night. Again, the threat of violence is there even in quieter moments. Vincent and Butch see each other early in the movie, at Marsellus� club, and Butch�s lingering stare at Vincent for insulting him makes us think that Butch is a stupid boxer who will later be killed by the more violent hit man. Instead, the opposite happens The audience experiences an even greater feeling of impending doom in the second sequence, �The Gold Watch�. The most surprising thing about �The Gold Watch� is that we the taste of fatality about each bad decision. We fear that Butch will be killed for such misjudgment. As soon as he wins the fight he was paid to fix for Marsellus he is on the run. They might simply shoot him. Or the cab driver might give him away. Or his brother�s bookies won�t pay out. The next morning, he is afraid when waking up to the violent movie his girl has on early in the morning. The fact that she forgot to pack the gold watch, makes us feel the perhaps fatal consequences of minor mistakes (in this cinematic world).� I can hardly believe he went back to get it. We know from previous movie-going that there must be a hit man at the apartment waiting for him. But Butch proves to be a survivor, taking a circuitous route to his apartment (a great tracking shot through a seemingly serene suburban neighborhood). �Butch is unbelievably lucky that Vincent is in the bathroom when he enters, but still I was shocked that he first stuck around to make himself a toaster treat�I would have beat it out of there. I guess it�s the ultimate product placement for Pop Tarts that Butch would eat one even with his life in danger. Of course, another preposterous coincidence is that he sees Marsellus on the street. And it�s something more of a coincidence that the store he happens to duck into is run by a shotgun bearing pervert with that absurd black clad creature locked inside. But again, we feel suspense again that Butch will make a mistake, like going back to free Marsellus whom we believe may simply kill him once free. But black comedy that it is, Butch, after all he�s been through, asks his �Fabienne how her pancakes were, like it�s the most important thing. In the �Bonnie Situation,� after Vincent shoots Marvin. We experience the suspense that Vincent and Jules will be caught by the police driving around in a bloody car; and later that Bonnie will come home to the fear of impending violence as soon as we know that the robbers will inevitably confront the hit men. And on intra-scene level, the suspense that Vincent might come out of the bathroom blasting away. Comic Dialog Pulp Fiction�s greatest strength is its comic dialog. It�s a 2 1/2 hour talkathon, punctuated by 10 or so violent acts and an ever-present threat of violence. But the violence does pause and we are spared the spooky music that normally turns the screws on its viewers for the duration. Instead, we hear mainly mellow 70s music between and during the violent interlude. The retro music and culturally-savvy dialog makes Pulp Fiction a comedy of manners as much as anything else, punctuated with cartoon violence to rivet your attention. Much of the clever dialog shows obsession with cultural minutiae, including brand name products. For example, Vincent famously tells Jules that in Paris you can�t buy a McDonald�s Quarter Pounder with Cheese; it�s called a Royale with Cheese. Or Lance, the heroin dealer (Eric Stoltz), states he�s willing to �take the Pepsi challenge,� i.e., a taste test, to show he can taste the difference between his $500 heroin and his $300 heroin. Vincent and Jules also discuss social mores, such as whether massaging a woman�s feet is really sexual or not. Vincent tells Lance that he finds it �against all the rules� that a man would key his car. Butch shows a sense of honor, both by risking his life to return for his father�s gold watch, but also to save Marsellus from his captors, even though Marsellus wants to kill him. We are shown criminal elements of society: hit men, a drug dealer, a boxer who fixes fights, and their women. They all come across so real because of their idiosyncratic and surprisingly intelligent speech. Jules, the hit man, reaches levels of profundity and is so chillingly calm under pressure. We don�t usually think of hit men as wanting to quit it all and �walk the earth� as does Jules (Samuel L. Jackson). Vincent, the Travolta character, shows some flashes of intelligence, as does Mia, Marsellus� wife (Uma Thurman). Much of the humor is dependent upon uncannily intelligent dialogue under strange circumstances. Again, Jules gets great laughs from his way of dealing with people he�s about the kill, or in the final scene, the way he handles the robbers in the restaurant. �Point the gun at me,� he helpfully tells the woman who has aimed her gun at Vincent. He quotes the Bible again, as he says he always does before killing someone. We also hear the �distant� irony of characters contradicting themselves. In the first segment Vincent says he never watches television while in the third segment he vividly describes a show he�s seen. Jules makes much ado to the young men he kills in the first scene that Marsellus is not to be fucked by anyone but his wife, but later he is raped by the hillbillies who tie up him and Butch. It�s also interesting that two of the scenes show Vincent bringing an ugly situation into the world of more law-abiding people: bringing the OD�d Mia to Lance (who at least isn�t a killer), and bringing Marvin�s body to Jimmie�s). Even in the first scene we are given comedy of manners: consider the casual attitudes of Vincent and Jules as they calmly take the elevator en route to a multiple hit, debating whether a foot massage is a sexual act worthy of the Marsellus� wrath. Their casualness is a source of humor later on, when they don�t seem to mind hanging around the scene of a hit to discuss whether or not it was a miracle they weren�t hit by bullets (you would think they would immediately leave the crime scene). Perhaps Jules� belief in miracles is the reason he ultimately survives while Vincent, a skeptic dies. Pulp Fiction�s Structure The structure of the three stories is also handled effectively. For the final scene we return to the original diner setting with a different perspective, knowing the diner will be robbed and that Jules and Vincent will be in the scene; this gives us a certain satisfaction. We like seeing Jules give Pumpkin and Honey Bunny a surprise, since they were the ones who violated another unwritten rule by robbing a diner. But the structure also works nicely because we get to see the rest of Jules and Vincent�s morning. Because Vincent dies in segment two, we get to see him alive again and get that cinematic feeling about the preciousness of life, or the eeriness of knowing he�ll die�without having to resort to prequels or a final Butch Cassidy freeze-frame, or highlights of the person�s life being flashed at us during the closing credits, as in other movies. We are glad to see Vincent alive again. Another reason the violence is so well handled and so effective is because we see the character living for a while (and talking) before he dies, rather than just being a callous stickman who dies as in so many movies. Or again, a virtue of the structure�that Vincent is killed at the end of segment two rather than later�is that as moviegoers we know that characters we like (even bad guy characters, like Butch Cassidy and Sundance) die at the end of the movie, so we are somewhat shocked by Vincent�s death. If he died at the end of the movie it wouldn�t have the same effect. Although we are shown interesting characters in extreme scenes (struggling for life, etc.) the characters remain superficial. Maybe this criticism is preempted by titling the movie �Pulp Fiction�; it�s not supposed to be deep. But we don�t know how these characters got this way (resorting to being hit men, or drug-users, fight-fixers, etc.). We are only given an all-pervasive cynicism. Perhaps these gaps are filled in by our imaginations: we�ve seen their stories in other films about similar characters, and those movies would have taken an unwanted moral theme about their decline in immorality and the sadness of it all. But even if it doesn�t detract from the film, in that this movie is not a psychological study, but ultimately�what is it? �A black comedy, with touches of the surreal, such as The Gimp, the odd black-clad creature unleashed for the homosexual rape; or Jody�s (Roseanne Arquette) fascination with the needle in the heart�and her tattoos and rings all over her body. It�s amazing how completely free from a moral tone this movie is. Everything is just treated in blas� manner where consequences are strictly legal ones or death. No one seems to fear the police at all. When Mia OD�s, there is not even a doctor figure (such as in Wilder�s The Apartment (1960)) to come in lamenting about physical self-destruction. The accidental shooting of Marvin in the car is gratuitous even for the characters; it is simply another problem they have to deal with, such as changing their clothes. They even call in Wolf to deal with it instead. It is funny that The Wolf, this �expert problem solver,� who is after all so cool, just does the obvious things which the hit men should have figured out for themselves: clean off the car and themselves. There are only a few touches of an outside, non-superficial presence in the characters� lives. Butch�s girl laments that what is pleasing to the eye and pleasing to the touch do not agree (but again: Butch has no lament at all for killing what turns out to be several people in his segment; he is even asked about this (how he feels about killing a man) point blank by the taxi driver and says no, it doesn�t bother him). Jules shows signs of spiritual concern but this is probably only introduced for its ironic effect; there is little hint that Tarantino is offering Jules� sentiments as a moral for his film. A virtue of sticking with the immediate present of the scenes, and the circular structure is that the movie suggests a much larger fictional world than it actually covers. We want to see more of Mia, Marsellus, Jules, and even Lance and Jody. Perhaps a prequel could be used to bring back the Vincent character; why did he spend three years in Amsterdam? But Tarantino may have a resistance to prequels and sequels. # All the little touches mentioned (and others) show that this is a thoughtful well-made film. But it has no moral. It is entertainment and a commentary about characters we�ve seen in other movies. The movie depends on its �effects��the violence and threat of violence, the articulateness of its underworld characters, and its structure. Also, that there is such a good cast in small roles. It�s fun to see Keitel, Stoltz, Arquette, Willis, Travolta, Tarantino, and Samuel T. Jackson, and others. On a critical, aesthetic level I don�t know what to say about this film in the end. It is effective, entertaining, funny, powerful in scenes (though not cumulatively). But it teaches us nothing. Pulp Fiction gives us violence in broad daylight, hip dialogue and circular structure.	i don't know
In which city are the headquarters of the Fiat car company?	Fiat History \| Italy Fiat History Submitted by admin on Tue, 03/10/2015 - 00:00 The logo of FIAT, one of Italy's best known companies Fiat has held a leading role in the automotive industry since its inception in 1899, at the dawn of Italian industrialization. From the moment they first appeared on the market, Fiat products, today ranging well beyond automobiles, have been extensively developed and recognized worldwide. Its logo has become a great status symbol due to a history of superior cars, prestige, history and tradition. Fiat 1899 to 1911 The charter of Società Anonima Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino or Fiat, was signed on July 11, 1899. Giovanni Agnelli was on the Board of Directors, but quickly distinguished himself as the Company's innovator. He was determined Fiat would be highly successful and had great strategic vision. Because of these qualities, he became Managing Director of Fiat in 1902. Fiat's First Factories and Races In 1900, the first Fiat factory opened in corso Dante, in Turin, with a workforce of 150 people. Fiat saw 24 cars roll off the assembly line that first year, including the company's first model, the 3 ½ CV. By 1904, a Fiat logo had been designed as an oval with a blue background. When Italy hosted the first Car Tour of the country, nine Fiats crossed the finish line. By 1902, driver Vincenzo Lancia won the Sassi-Superga uphill race, in the famous Fiat 24 hp model. Giovanni Agnelli, President of Fiat, represented the company on the racetrack, driving an 8 hp Fiat in the second Italian Car Tour and set a record in that race. In 1908, Fiat opened the Fiat Automobile Company in the US. The Company grew in leaps and bounds: at that time, a Fiat was a luxury item in America, costing thousands more than the average domestic car of the period. Fiat continued to grow at a swift rate and it wasn't long before the company expanded its product line with trucks, trams, marine engines and commercial vehicles. Towards the end of Fiat's early production period, the company was to undergo some changes, and overhaul its production. Fiat began fitting its cars with electrical accumulators, and also patented the cardan transmission. The Lingotto is a cornerstone of Fiat's history (by Alessadro at flickr.com) Under the new leadership of Giacomo Malle Trucco, construction of the famous Lingotto factory began in 1916. It was to be the largest factory in Europe, with a unique five floors assembly line that finished with a futuristic test track constructed on the building's roof. The factory was completed in 1922 and became the symbol of the automotive industry in Italy for decades to come. During WWI Fiat devoted itself to supplying the Allied Forces with weapons, aircraft and vehicles. New Sectors Fiat began to explore new sectors before and after WWI, becoming active in electricity, public transportation lines, railways and the steel industry. A subsidiary was established in Russia and Fiat Lubrificanti was founded. Crisis and Recovery When the war ended, a time of crisis hit Fiat and the company's factories were briefly held by workers of the Italian Socialist Party in 1921. Fortunately recovery came quickly and, by 1923, Fiat was already showing signs of growth, due in part to some very effective cost-cutting policies. At this time, Giovanni Agnelli was promoted to the position of CEO of Fiat. Several new car models were released, including the four-seat 509. Fiat set a goal to create industrial mass production in order to decrease the cost of their cars. A holding company was established to enable purchasers to pay for Fiats through installments. As the company grew worldwide, Fiat also grew internally between 1912 and 1925. They were quick to recognize their employees' needs and established a health care plan, sports clubs and specialized schools. Fiat Topolino: a piece of Fiat History (by argentum nitricum at flickr.com) When Mussolini's come to power in Italy, Fiat had to abandon many of its plans for an international presence. Fiat would now concentrate on producing the needed equipment for the domestic market. The company responded with new technology and designs in commercial vehicles, trucks, as well as railways and aircrafts. Two new Fiat cars were introduced between 1934 and 1936. The Topolino was the smallest utilitarian car in the world, and continued to be produced until 1955. The Tariffa Minima, better known as the Balilla, was very popular because of excellent gas mileage. Fiat Balilla: still beautiful, almost 100 years later (by Werner Wittersheim at flickr.com) The Mirafiori Plant The Mirafiori Plant was a brand new factory that introduced advanced principals for industrial organization in 1937. The factory's focus was directed toward mass production and greatly increased Fiat's output capacity. Fiat 1939 to 1964 When WWII broke out, the production of cars nearly ceased, as Fiat manufactured commercial and military vehicles, aircraft, weapons and machinery for the war effort. By the end of the war, Giovanni Agnelli, the President of Fiat, died in 1945. Vittorio Valletta was to lead the company in post-war Italy. During WWII, many of Fiat's factories were destroyed, but by 1948 reconstruction had begun. Fiat's profits increased considerably and more employees were hired to fulfill the company's commitment to innovation and research after the war. b(255, 255, 255);"> Fiat 500, one of the most popular models in Fiat history (by eek the cat at flickr.com) Two new cars, the 500 and 1400 were introduced and mass production included the installation of heating and ventilation systems for the first time. Fiat continued its research on aircraft and marine engines and in 1951, the G830 jet aircraft was born: the first for Italy. The 1400 diesel was introduced in 1953. By 1958, Fiat had grown in the production of both cars and farm machinery and established plants abroad while doubling the Mirafiori complex. Italy was in the middle of an economic boom and its automobile sector was the driving force behind it, fueled by Fiat innovation. New Fiat Models The Fiat 600 was introduced in 1955 and was a big utilitarian automobile with the engine mounted in the rear. The New 500 was released in 1957 and by 1960, the Giardinetta version was produced - a precursor of the Station Wagon. This was also the time when well-known models like the Fiat 1300, 1500 and 1800 were released. A Fiat 127 commercial from 1976 (by John Lloyd, at flickr.com) Fiat continued to experience growth of production into the mid 1960s, in both exports and domestic sales. Car ownership in Italy changed from one car for every 96 Italians to one in 28. Fiat was poised to take advantage of the increase and established several factories in southern Italy. However, this was also the beginning of the infamous trade union conflicts and so, by 1969, millions of man hours were lost to strikes all over Italy. Changing Fiat Presidency and New Models The grandson of founder Giovanni Agnelli, Gianni Agnelli, became President of Fiat in 1966. Like his grandfather, he ensured the company followed a trend of innovation with increased automation in the production process. The first new Fiat to be released during these years was the 850 , followed in 1971 by the 127 , which was a great success. The 127 was the first Fiat to have front wheel drive and was named Car of the Year 1971. Fiat 1978 to 1990 To keep Fiat on the path to automation of production, Robogate, a flexible robotic system for assembling bodywork was introduced to factories in 1978. Fiat was also becoming an economic, as well as industrial powerhouse, as it began to acquire other well-known Italian brands such as Lancia, Ferrari, Alfa Romeo and Maserati: Fiat became Fiat Auto S.p.A. Between 1978 and 1990 Fiat also setup numerous operations as independent companies. These included Fiat Avio, Fiat Engineering, Comau, Fiat Ferraviaria, Magneti Marelli and Teksid. New Models The no-frills, affordable Fiat Panda hatchback was styled by Giugiaro for the company in 1980, which was followed up with the Uno, in 1982. The Uno replaced the 127 and became the emblem of Fiat Auto's renewal and featured radical changes in its electronics and choice of the material used to build it. Fiat's 1000 Fire engine was also introduced at this time. In 1989, the Tipo was released as a small family hatchback. It had cutting edge technical solutions and marked a conquest for Fiat technology. It was very popular on the international market and was named 1989 Car of the Year. Fiat Tipo, 1990 (by Niels de Wit, at flickr.com) Fiat 1991 to 2003 In 1990, the Fiat Tempra made its debut into the family car market. One year later, the latest version of the 500 or Cinquecento was released. The Fiat Punto and the Fiat Coupé rolled off the assembly line during this time, with the supermini Punto being named Car of the Year in 1995. Fiat made its debut into SUVs in 1994, with the introduction of the Fiat Ulysse. In 1995, the Bravo , Brava and the Barchetta were released with the Bravo/Brava bringing Fiat yet another European Car of the Year award for 1996. Administration Changes 1996 saw changes at the top of Fiat as Cesare Romiti took over as CEO, making Gianni Agnelli Honorary President of Fiat Group. By 1997, Fiat had outgrown its old corporate headquarters on Turin's Corso Marconi and moved to the Palazzina Fiat at the Lingotto. By this time, The Palazzina Fiat of Lingotto had been transformed from the famous factory into Europe's largest convention and trade show complex. Crisis During the 1990s, Fiat was once again facing a crisis in the form of market competition. In order to cope, the company expanded further into the international market, making Fiat one of the most recognized worldwide producers of affordable vehicles. It has since successfully achieved this global presence with more than 60% of sales outside of Italy. To commemorate the 100 Year Anniversary of Fiat, the company logo was revised from the oval to a round version. In 1998, Fiat released the Seicento as a replacement for the 500. The car became known as a great compact car, perfect for city driving. The innovative design of the Multipla was once featured in a modern art exhibit at New York City's MOMA. This compact MPV was introduced the same year as the Seicento. A New Century of Fiat In 2000, Fiat Doblò was introduced at the Paris Motor Show as both an informal car and a commercial vehicle. It was named 2006 International Van of the Year. The Fiat Stilo was released in 2001 to replace the Bravo/Brava. The Stilo had numerous options and highly sophisticated technology, as well as a new design. 2002 saw the New Fiat Ulysse, the Fiat Multipla and the Fiat Stilo MW restyled. Although 2003 saw the death of Gianni Agnelli after nearly 50 years of service, the year also saw the new Punto launched with an innovative 1.3 Multijet 16v. Later that fall, the new Panda was released and was almost immediately named Car of the Year for 2004. Fiat 2004 to Today In January 2004, the Fiat Idea made its debut: it was the first full-sized MPV built by Fiat and the design was truly unique. The Idea was made taller to improve visibility and its interior was enhanced for flexibility, including sliding rear seats. 2007 saw the Fiat 500 have stiffer suspension, wider fenders and a 150 hp turbo 4-cylinder engine that runs from zero to 60 in eight seconds. The Fiat Sedici is a smart looking mini SUV at home in the city or country introduced in 2006. Fiat Idea (by RL GNZLZ at flickr.com) Fiat continues on the path of innovation and superior technology into the 21st century with a line of new engines and new models. Men of the reform have been Sergio Marchionne and Luca Cordero di Montezemolo , who have also lead Fiat into the acquisition of Chrysler in 2009. Thanks to the acquisition and Marchionne's will, Fiat enters again the north American market, after 10 years of absence. In spite of the crisis, Fiat introduced new models: the Alfa 159, the Fiat Nuova 500 and La Grande Punto, which was the most popular car in Italy in 2006. In 2010, John Ellkan is nominated president of Fiat and a 5 year plan for the development of the company is created: between 2010 and 2014, Fiat has restructered its sectors' organization through the creation of Fiat Industrial, where all activities related to the production of industrial machineries have converged. Fiat Industrial passed under the presidence of Marchionne, whereas Fiat S.p.a. (which regulates the production of cars, parts, systems production) and the editorial sector have remained under the presidency of Elkann. Marchionne remains Fiat S.p.a's CEO.	The Turin

With which heavy metal pop group is Angus Young associated?	Though Unbankable In Top 40, Ac/dc Still Cashes In With The Heavy Metal Set - tribunedigital-chicagotribune Though Unbankable In Top 40, Ac/dc Still Cashes In With The Heavy Metal Set August 17, 1986\|By Lynn Van Matre, Pop music critic. Rock band AC/DC, a group whose members have always considered themselves to be ``at the other end of the Earth from the world of movies and movie stars,`` as guitarist Angus Young puts it, recently took the soundtrack plunge --that`s them wailing away throughout ``Maximum Overdrive,`` horrormeister Stephen King`s latest effort. The film, a technology-gone-berserk thriller in which machines run amok, hasn`t exactly thrilled critics, though Young notes that doing the soundtrack was a nice break for the veteran Australian hard rock/heavy metal band. Still, AC/DC fans shouldn`t hold their collective breath waiting for the headbanger quintet`s next foray into film. ``I don`t think you`ll see us doing too many of those in the future,`` says Young, taking time out recently from a brief vacation in Holland to talk about the film and the band`s current tour, which brings them to Alpine Valley on Aug. 30 and Poplar Creek on Sept. 4. ``As far as we`re concerned, this soundtrack was probably a one-off (a one-shot deal). ``Why? Because somebody`s really got to like your music before they ask you to do one. With `Maximum Overdrive,` Stephen King had been a fan of ours for a long time. Whenever we would play shows in Massachusetts--he lives somewhere around there, I think--he would come and see us, and he really wanted us. ``He even wanted us after we told him that we weren`t exactly the most commercial band in the world,`` adds Young with a laugh. ``Yeah, we`ve sold a lot of albums, but Hollywood is looking for what they call `bankable` groups, and we`ve never been a hit singles-oriented band.`` They may not be ``bankable`` by Hollywood`s Top 40 standards, but in hard rock/heavy metal circles, AC/DC has been a bankable band in the record album bins and concert hall box offices for more than a decade. Formed in Sydney in 1974 by Scottish-born brothers Malcolm and Angus Young, the group soon built a reputation for powerful, high-decibel rock and a high-intensity stage show built around the youthful Angus` lead guitar work and ``deranged schoolboy`` persona. Even the 1980 alcohol-related death of the band`s lead singer, Bon Scott, failed to stop the group. After signing up a new lead singer, Brian Johnson, the band returned to the scene with a new album, ``Back in Black,`` which sold more than 8 million copies worldwide; the follow-up album, ``For Those About to Rock We Salute You,`` spent three weeks in the No. 1 spot on Billboard`s best-selling album chart and also sold in the millions. While AC/DC has yet to repeat its ``For Those About to Rock`` success (``Who Made Who,`` featuring the music from ``Maximum Overdrive,`` is currently No. 37 and rising on Billboard`s album chart), they have remained a steadily selling band and a popular concert draw--though Young isn`t exactly sure why. ``What do people like about us?`` he repeats, when asked to comment on the band`s enduring appeal. ``Hmmmm. Gee, I don`t know. . . . Well, it`s probably the way that we come out there on stage and try to be with the audience. We don`t try to outshine them and outdress them and look pretty and steal their girlfriends. We`re not threatening to an audience. They see us as a powerful rock band, and we`ll always try to live up to their expectations. I think that`s what kids see in us.`` Young, now 27, was just a kid himself when he dropped out of school at age 15 to hit the road with AC/DC. ``At the time, I didn`t think that I wanted to go any further with school,`` he says. ``I never liked it, anyway.`` But he decided to keep one vestige of his schoolboy days--his school uniform--and incorporate it into the show. To this day, Young invariably performs in a white shirt, conservative-looking tie, jacket and short pants (which he has been known to drop on stage, to the delight of the band`s largely teenage following). ``My sister came up with the idea for the outfit,`` he says. ``I used to come home from school, wearing my little school uniform with the jacket and short pants, and pick up my guitar and start playing. Pretty soon, it would be time for dinner, and I still wouldn`t have gotten around to changing clothes. Later, when my older brother, Malcolm, decided to put together a band and wanted me to be in it, my sister said, `Why not keep him in his school uniform? It would be a good gimmick.` So that`s how it came about.`` As for the band`s name, ``We wanted something that was easy to remember and had a lot of energy and excitement about it,`` says Young. ``So what could be better than naming ourself after something associated with a power outlet? People always asked us if our name meant that we were bisexual, but we actually took it off the back of an appliance.``	ac dc

Young, founder members of Australian heavy metal band AC/DC, flank Jose Luis Perez, mayor of the Madrid district of Leganes, following the inauguration of a new street with the group's name in this 2000 photo. AC/DC guitarist Malcolm Young will take a leave from the Australian hard rock group he founded because of ill health, the band said in a statement on Wednesday. Reuters/File View Caption of NEW YORK — Malcolm Young is taking a break from AC/DC to focus on his health, the band said. The announcement saying the 61-year-old guitarist is in "ill health" was posted on the band's Facebook. No details were provided. "Malcolm would like to thank the group's die-hard legions of fans worldwide for their never-ending love and support," the statement said. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers said in the statement they "will continue to make music." AC/DC's last studio album was 2008's "Black Ice." They released a live disc in 2012. Young co-founded the Australian classic rock band. He has performed with AC/DC for 40 years. Mark Gable, a friend and musical contemporary of Young, said he doubted the guitarist would ever record again. "It's not just that he is unwell, it's that it is quite serious," Gable, frontman of the Australian band The Choirboys, told Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio. "He will probably not be able to record," Gable added. Sydney-based music company Alberts, which launched AC/DC's international career and manages the band's music catalogue, did not respond to a request for comment.

What is the popular name for the plant Convallaria majalis?	Convallaria majalis - Plant Finder Plant Finder Tried and Trouble-free Recommended by 8 Professionals Common Name: lily of the valley Type: Herbaceous perennial Native Range: Northern temperate regions Zone: 3 to 8 Height: 0.50 to 1.00 feet Spread: 0.75 to 1.00 feet Bloom Time: April Sun: Part shade to full shade Water: Medium Suggested Use: Ground Cover, Naturalize Flower: Showy, Fragrant, Good Cut Tolerate: Rabbit, Deer, Heavy Shade, Erosion, Clay Soil Garden locations Culture Easily grown in moist, fertile, organically rich, well-drained soils in part shade to full shade. Performs well in sun-dappled shade. In optimum growing conditions, it will spread rapidly by rhizomes, almost to the point of being weedy, to form dense colonies in the landscape. This is a long-lived plant which naturalizes easily in woodland areas and may be left undisturbed for many years. Flowering may decrease over time, however, at which point dividing the plants may become appropriate. This is a cool weather perennial which is not recommended for growing in hot and humid summer climates south of USDA Zone 7a where it will perform poorly. May easily be propagated in spring or fall by root division. Noteworthy Characteristics Convallaria majalis, commonly known as lily-of-the-valley, is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial that that typically forms an indefinitely-spreading ground cover to 8-12” tall. It is native to Europe, but has escaped cultivation and naturalized over time throughout much of temperate eastern and central North America plus parts of the Northwestern U.S. Foliage and flowers make this an attractive and beloved shade garden wildflower. Each plant has 2 to 3 parallel-veined lanceolate-ovate to elliptic green leaves (to 5-10” long and to 1-3” wide). In spring, an erect to slightly arching flowering stem rises from the center of each leaf clump bearing a one-sided raceme (to 4-9” long) of nodding, bell-shaped, sweetly fragrant, white flowers (corollas to 1/3” long) which bloom in early to mid-spring. Each raceme typically contains 5-10 flowers. Globoid orange-red berries may appear in fall, each berry containing 1-6 seeds. All parts of this plant are very poisonous because they contain cardiac glycosides. Genus name comes from the Latin word convallis meaning a valley. Specific epithet means of or belonging to May in reference to the month of flowering. Problems No serious insect or disease problems. Watch for aphids and spider mites. Stem rot, leaf spot, leaf blotch and anthracnose may appear but usually are not significant deterrents to growing this plant. Foliage decline will occur in hot summers. Garden Uses Best as a ground cover for shady areas where aggressive spread is desired. May be too rambunctious for shady areas of rock gardens or borders. Popular cut flower. Performs well under the shade of trees and shrubs.	The Lily of the Valley
What is the capital of the Southern African country of Botswana?	Convallaria majalis – Ballyrobert Gardens Height: 10 - 25 cm (0.3 - 0.8 ft) Spread: 30 - 60 cm (1 - 2 ft) Time to full growth: 2 to 5 years Plant type: Herbaceous Perennial Colour: White, green Goes well with: Epimedium, Ferns (Athyrium), Hosta, Tricyrtis or Vinca. Also think about others with similar habits like Omphalodes and Anemones. I've even heard of Ophiopogon as a partner. We put ours in the woodland because it can take over when it is in our borders. About this genus: Convallaria is a genus of one, two or three species. It depends if keiskei and transcaucasica are recognized as separate species by taxonomists. Don't even get them started on what family it is supposed to be in..... This means that for all intents and purposes we are referring to Convallaria majalis when we say Convalaria. Common names include Lily of the valley, May lily, Our Lady's tears, Lady's tears ,Conval lily, Liriconfancy, May bells, Mayflower, Mugget, or Word lily. So all those common names makes us commoners look much less organised than the taxonomists I just poked fun at. Not only is it associated with a variety of names, Convallaria is also associated with a variety of legends. Depending on who you ask it signifies sweetness, trustworthiness, the return of happiness, optimism, etc etc etc. If you ever get married to a prince, Convallaria also has its uses; it was in the wedding bouquet of the Duchess of Cambridge (the one married to Prince William whose sister is always in the newspapers for looking pretty). Whilst we are talking popular culture, wikipedia tells me that in the popular show 'Breaking Bad' the criminal drug-lord kingpin, Walter White, uses Convallaria to poison a child, Brock, in order to blame the poisoning on Gus Fring and to make it look like he was poisoned with ricin. I'd recommend using Convallaria in a wedding bouquet before I'd recommend using it to poison and kill a child. But before you think about those uses, think about its use in the garden! In the garden Convalaria is a beautiful, sweetly scented, highly poisonous woodland-type flowering plant that is native throughout the cool temperate Northern Hemisphere in Asia, and Europe. They are well-known for producing a cluster of small, white, bell-shaped, fragrant flowers in spring. Cultivated varieties may have pink flowers, double flowers, extra large flowers or variegated leaves. Books tell you Convallaria prefers cool, shady, moist conditions and is adaptable to most garden soils. In Ireland we rarely have 'full-sun' so that means we can grow it almost anywhere. It spreads via rhizomes to form extensive colonies when it is happy - like in Ballyrobert. It can be so prolific that in some gardens it may even be considered a weed - if that is what you are after. But we know in some gardens locally it is miserable! Why is anyone's guess.... How to use it? Try it with Epimedium, Ferns (Athyrium), Hosta, Tricyrtis or Vinca. Also think about others with similar habits like Omphalodes and Anemones. I've even heard of Ophiopogon as a partner. We put ours in the woodland because it can take over when it is in our borders. Side note: Despite being born and bred with plants in a plant nursery environment I (Paul) always always always always always confuse Convallaria with Polygonatum. Quick Links	i don't know

Learn about the memorable moments in the evolution of Harold Macmillan. CHILDHOOD 1894 Birth Born in 1894. 1897 3 Years Old Macmillan claimed to remember Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, which occurred in 1897, but his memory seems to his biographer suspiciously similar to Philip Guedalla's account. … Read More He remembered Queen Victoriaâs funeral, the Relief of Mafeking and the victory of the âgallant little Japsâ against the Russians at Tsushima.<br /><br /> Macmillan received an intensive early education, closely guided by his American mother. He learned French at home every morning from a succession of nursery maids, and exercised daily at Mr Macpherson's Gymnasium and Dancing Academy, around the corner from the family home. From the age of six or seven he received introductory lessons in classical Latin and Greek at Mr Gladstone's day school, close by in Sloane Square.<br /><br /> Macmillan attended Summer Fields School, Oxford (1903â06). He was Third Scholar at Eton College, but his time there (1906â10) was blighted by recurrent illness, starting with a near-fatal attack of pneumonia in his first half; he missed his final year after being invalided out, and was taught at home by private tutors (1910â11), notably Ronald Knox, who did much to instil his High church Anglicanism. He won an exhibition to Balliol, but was less of a scholar than his older brother Dan. Read Less TEENAGE 1905 11 Years Old As a child, teenager and later young man, he was an admirer of the policies and leadership of a succession of Liberal Prime Ministers, starting with Henry Campbell-Bannerman, who came to power near the end of 1905 when Macmillan was only 11 years old, and then H. H. Asquith, whom he later described as having "intellectual sincerity and moral nobility", and particularly of Asquith's successor, David Lloyd George, whom he regarded as a "man of action", likely to accomplish his goals. … Read More He went up to Balliol College, Oxford (1912â14), where he joined many political societies. His political opinions at this stage were an eclectic mix of moderate Conservatism, moderate Liberalism and Fabian Socialism. Read Less 1913 19 Years Old He read avidly about Disraeli, but was also particularly impressed by a speech by Lloyd George at the Oxford Union Society in 1913, where he had become a member and debater. … Read More He was a protÃ©gÃ© of the then President Walter Monckton, later a Cabinet colleague, and became Secretary then Junior Treasurer (elected unopposed in March 1914, then an unusual occurrence) of the Union and would, in his biographers' view, "almost certainly" have been President had the war not intervened. Read Less TWENTIES Show Less He obtained a First in Honours Moderations, informally known as Mods (consisting of Latin and Greek, the first half of the four-year Oxford Literae Humaniores course, informally known as Greats), in Hilary Term 1914. … Read More With his final exams over two years away, he enjoyed an idyllic Trinity (summer) term at Oxford, just before the outbreak of the First World War.<br /><br /> In his memoirs Macmillan later told of how he was at a ball in London on the night of Sunday 28 June, at which "Mr Cassiniâs band" played, and had emerged to hear newspaper vendors proclaiming the âMurder of the Archdukeâ. No such ball has been traced, and the Archdukeâs murder was not announced in the British Press until 2 July. However, it has recently been suggested that Macmillan may have confused a similar ball which took place on the night of Monday 3 August, when speculation was rife about a German invasion of Belgium and British entry into the war. Read Less Volunteering immediately for active service in the Great War, Macmillan joined the British Army and was commissioned as a temporary second lieutenant in the King's Royal Rifle Corps on 19 November 1914. Show Less Promoted to lieutenant on 30 January 1915, he soon transferred to the Grenadier Guards. … Read More He fought on the front lines in France, where the casualty rate was known to be high, as was the probability of an "early and violent death". He served with distinction as a captain and was wounded on three occasions. Read Less Shot in the right hand and receiving a glancing bullet wound to the head in the Battle of Loos in September 1915, Macmillan was sent to Lennox Gardens in Chelsea for hospital treatment, then joined a reserve battalion at Chelsea Barracks from January to March 1916, until his hand had healed. … Read More He then returned to the front lines in France. Read Less 1916 22 Years Old Leading an advance platoon in the Battle of FlersâCourcelette (part of the Battle of the Somme) in September 1916, he was severely wounded, and lay for ten hours in a slit trench, sometimes feigning death when Germans passed, and reading the classical playwright Aeschylus in the original Greek. … Read More The then-Prime Minister Asquith's own son, Raymond Asquith, was a brother officer in Macmillan's regiment, and was killed that month. Read Less Show Less Macmillan spent the final two years of the war in hospital undergoing a long series of operations. He was still on crutches on Armistice Day, 11 November 1918. … Read More His hip wound took four years to heal completely, and he was left with a slight shuffle to his walk and a limp grip in his right hand from his previous wound, which affected his handwriting.<br /><br /> Macmillan saw himself as both a âgownsmanâ and a âswordsmanâ and would later display open contempt for other politicians (e.g. Rab Butler, Hugh Gaitskell, Harold Wilson) who, often through no fault of their own, had not seen military service in either World War.<br /><br /> Of the 28 students who started at Balliol with Macmillan, only he and one other survived the war. As a result, he refused to return to Oxford to complete his degree, saying the university would never be the same; in later years he joked that he had been "sent down by the Kaiser". Read Less Owing to the impending contraction of the Army after the war, a regular commission in the Grenadiers was out of the question. However, at the end of 1918 Macmillan joined the Guards Reserve Battalion at Chelsea Barracks for "light duties". … Read More On one occasion he had to command reliable troops in a nearby park as a unit of Guardsmen was briefly refusing to reembark for France, although the incident was resolved peacefully. The incident prompted an inquiry from the War Office as to whether the Guards Reserve Battalion âcould be relied onâ. Read Less 1919 25 Years Old Macmillan then served in Ottawa, Canada, in 1919 as ADC to Victor Cavendish, 9th Duke of Devonshire, then Governor General of Canada, and his future father-in-law. The engagement of Captain Macmillan to the Duke's daughter Lady Dorothy was announced on 7 January 1920. He relinquished his commission on 1 April 1920. On his return to London in 1920 he joined the family publishing firm Macmillan Publishers as a junior partner, remaining with the company until his appointment to ministerial office in 1940. … Read More He resumed with the firm from 1945 to 1951 when the party was in opposition. Read Less Macmillan married Lady Dorothy Cavendish, the daughter of the 9th Duke of Devonshire, on 21 April 1920. … Read More Her great-uncle was Spencer Cavendish, 8th Duke of Devonshire, who was leader of the Liberal Party in the 1870s, and a close colleague of William Ewart Gladstone, Joseph Chamberlain and Lord Salisbury. Lady Dorothy was also descended from William Cavendish, 4th Duke of Devonshire, who served as Prime Minister from 1756 to 1757 in communion with Newcastle and Pitt the Elder. Her nephew William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington married Kathleen, a sister of John F. Kennedy. Read Less Show Less As was common for contemporary former officers, he continued to be known as 'Captain Macmillan' until the early 1930s and was listed as such in every General Election between 1923 and 1931. … Read More As late as his North African posting of 1942-3 he reminded Churchill that he held the rank of captain in the Guards reserve. Read Less Macmillan contested the depressed northern industrial constituency of Stockton-on-Tees in 1923. … Read More The campaign cost him about Â£200-Â£300 out of his own pocket. The collapse in the Liberal vote let him win in 1924. Read Less THIRTIES 1927 - 1928 2 More Events 1927 33 Years Old In 1927 four MPs, including Boothby and Macmillan, published a short book advocating radical measures. 1928 34 Years Old In 1928 Macmillan was described by his political hero, and now Parliamentary colleague, David Lloyd George, as a "born rebel". Show Less In 1929 Lady Dorothy began a lifelong affair with the Conservative politician Robert Boothby, an arrangement that scandalised high society but remained unknown to the general public. … Read More Philip Frere, a partner in Frere Cholmely solicitors, urged Macmillan not to divorce his wife, which at that time would have been fatal to a public career even for the "innocent party". Macmillan and Lady Dorothy lived largely separate lives in private thereafter. The stress caused by this may have contributed to Macmillan's nervous breakdown in 1931. He was often treated with condescension by his aristocratic in-laws and was observed to be a sad and isolated figure at Chatsworth in the 1930s. Campbell suggests that Macmillan's humiliation was first a major cause of his odd and rebellious behaviour in the 1930s then, in subsequent decades, made him a harder and more ruthless politician than his rivals Eden and Butler.<br /><br /> The Macmillans had four children: <br /><br /> Lady Dorothy died on 21 May 1966, aged 65, after 46 years of marriage.<br /><br /> Macmillan was in close friendship in old age with Ava Anderson, Viscountess Waverley, nÃ©e Bodley (1896â1973), the widow of John Anderson, 1st Viscount Waverley. Eileen O'Casey, nÃ©e Reynolds (1900â95), the actress wife of Irish dramatist SeÃ¡n O'Casey, was another female friend, Macmillan publishing her husband's plays. Although she is said to have replaced Lady Dorothy in Macmillan's affections, there is disagreement over how intimate they became after the death of their respective spouses, and whether he proposed. Read Less Macmillan lost his seat in 1929 in the face of high regional unemployment. Show Less He almost became Conservative candidate for the safe seat of Hitchin in 1931 but the sitting MP, Guy Molesworth Kindersley cancelled his retirement plans, in part because of his own association with the anti-Baldwin rebels and his suspicion of Macmillan's sympathy for Oswald Mosley's promises of radical measures to reduce unemployment. Instead, the fortunate resignation of the new candidate at Stockton allowed Macmillan to be re-selected there, and he returned to the House of Commons for his old seat in 1931. … Read More Macmillan spent the 1930s on the backbenches. Read Less In March 1932 he published âThe State and Industryâ (not to be confused with his earlier pamphlet âIndustry and the Stateâ). In September 1932 he made his first visit to the USSR. … Read More Macmillan also published âThe Next Stepâ. He advocated cheap money and state direction of investment. Read Less FORTIES Show Less In 1935 he was one of 15 MPs to write âPlanning for Employmentâ. His next publication, âThe Next Five Yearsâ, was overshadowed by Lloyd Georgeâs proposed "New Deal" in 1935. … Read More Macmillan Press also published the work of the economist John Maynard Keynes.<br /><br /> Macmillan resigned the Conservative whip in protest at the lifting of sanctions on Italy after her conquest of Abyssinia. "Chips" Channon described him as the âunprepossessing, bookish, eccentric member for Stockton-on-Teesâ and recorded (8 July 1936) that he had been sent a âfrigid noteâ by Conservative Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin. Baldwin later mentioned that he had survived by steering a middle course between Harold Macmillan and (the extreme right-winger) John Gretton. Read Less 1937 43 Years Old The Next Five Years Group, to which Macmillan had belonged, was wound up in November 1937. 1938 44 Years Old His book âThe Middle Wayâ appeared in June 1938, advocating a broadly centrist political philosophy both domestically and internationally. … Read More Macmillan took control of the magazine âNew Outlookâ and made sure it published political tracts rather than purely theoretical work.<br /><br /> Macmillan supported Chamberlainâs first flight for talks with Hitler at Berchtesgaden, but not his subsequent flights to Bad Godesberg and Munich. After Munich he was looking for a â1931 in reverseâ, i.e. a Labour-dominated coalition in which some Conservatives would serve, the reverse of the Conservative-dominated coalition which had governed Britain since 1931. He supported the independent candidate, Lindsay, at the Oxford by-election. He wrote a pamphlet âThe Price of Peaceâ calling for alliance between Britain, France and the USSR, but expecting Poland to make territorial âaccommodationâ to Germany (i.e. give up the Danzig corridor). Read Less 1939 45 Years Old In âEconomic Aspects of Defenceâ, early in 1939, he called for a Ministry of Supply. Show Less Macmillan visited Finland in February 1940, then the subject of great sympathy in Britain as she was being attacked by the USSR, then loosely allied to Nazi Germany. … Read More He wore a white fur hat, later to be seen on a trip to the USSR in the late 1950s. His last speech from the backbenches was to attack the government for not doing enough to help Finland. Britain was saved from a potentially embarrassing commitment when the Winter War ended in March 1940 (Finland would later fight on the German side against the USSR).<br /><br /> Macmillan voted against the Government in the Norway Debate, helping to bring down Neville Chamberlain as Prime Minister, and tried to join in with Colonel Josiah Wedgwood singing âRule Britanniaâ in the House of Commons Chamber. Read Less Macmillan at last attained office by serving in the wartime coalition government as the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Supply from 1940. … Read More Channon commented (29 May 1940) that there was âsome amusement over Harold Macmillanâs so obvious enjoyment of his new positionâ.<br /><br /> Macmillan's job was to provide armaments and other equipment to the British Army and Royal Air Force. He travelled up and down the country to co-ordinate production, working with some success under Lord Beaverbrook to increase the supply and quality of armoured vehicles. Read Less Show Less Macmillan was appointed Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies in 1942, in his own words "leaving a madhouse to enter a mausoleum". … Read More Though a junior minister he was a member of the Privy Council, and he spoke in the House of Commons for Colonial Secretaries Lord Moyne and Lord Cranborne. Read Less Macmillan was given responsibility for increasing colonial production and trade, and signalled the future policy direction when in June 1942 he declared: … Read More Macmillan predicted that the Conservatives faced landslide defeat after the war, causing Channon to write (6 Sep 1944) of âthe foolish prophecy of that nice ass Harold Macmillanâ. Read Less In October 1942 Harold Nicolson recorded Macmillan as predicting âextreme socialismâ after the war. Macmillan nearly resigned when Oliver Stanley was appointed Secretary of State in November 1942, as he would no longer be the spokesman in the Commons as he had been under Cranborne. … Read More Brendan Bracken advised him not to quit. Read Less After Harry Crookshank had refused the job, Macmillan attained real power and Cabinet rank late in 1942 as British Minister Resident at Algiers in the Mediterranean, recently liberated in Operation Torch. … Read More He reported directly to the Prime Minister instead of to the Foreign Secretary, Anthony Eden. Oliver Lyttelton had a similar job at Cairo, whilst Robert Murphy was Macmillan's US counterpart. Macmillan built a rapport with US General Dwight D. Eisenhower, then Supreme Allied Commander in the Mediterranean (SACMED), which proved helpful in his career, and Richard Crossman later recalled that Macmillanâs âGreeks in the Roman Empireâ metaphor dated from this time (i.e. that as the USA replaced Britain as the world's leading power, British politicians and diplomats should aim to guide her in the same way that Greek slaves and freedmen had advised powerful Romans). At the Casablanca Conference Macmillan helped to secure US acceptance, if not recognition, of the Free French leader Charles de Gaulle.<br /><br /> Macmillan was badly burned in a plane crash, trying to climb back into the plane to rescue a Frenchman. He had to have a plaster cast put on his face. In his delirium he imagined himself back in a Somme casualty clearing station and asked for a message to be passed to his mother, now dead. Read Less Show Less Together with Gladwyn Jebb he helped to negotiate the Italian armistice in August 1943, between the fall of Sicily and the Salerno Landings. … Read More This caused friction with Eden and the Foreign Office. He was based at Caserta for the rest of the war. Read Less He was appointed UK High Commissioner for the Advisory Council for Italy late in 1943. He visited London in October 1943 and again clashed with Eden. … Read More Eden appointed Duff Cooper as Ambassador to France (still under German occupation) and Noel Charles as Ambassador to Italy to reduce Macmillanâs influence. Read Less FIFTIES Show Less In May 1944 Macmillan infuriated Eden by demanding an early peace treaty with Italy (at that time a pro-Allied regime under Badoglio held some power in the southern, liberated, part of Italy), a move which Churchill favoured. In June 1944 he argued for a British-led thrust up the Ljubljana Gap into Central Europe (Operation âArmpitâ) instead of the planned diversion of US and Free French forces to the South of France (Operation Dragoon). … Read More This proposal impressed Churchill and General Alexander, but did not meet with American approval. Eden sent out Robert Dixon to abolish the job of Resident Minister, there being then no job for Macmillan back in the UK, but he managed to prevent his job being abolished. Churchill visited Italy in August 1944. Read Less On 14 September 1944 Macmillan was appointed Chief Commissioner of the Allied Central Commission for Italy (in succession to General Macfarlane). … Read More He continued to be British Minister Resident at Allied Headquarters and British Political adviser to "Jumbo" Wilson, now Supreme Commander, Mediterranean. Read Less On 10 November 1944 he was appointed Acting President of the Allied Commission (the Supreme Commander being President). Macmillan visited Greece on 11 December 1944. … Read More As the Germans had withdrawn, British troops under General Scobie had deployed to Athens, but there were concerns that the largely pro-communist Greek resistance, EAM and its military wing ELAS, would take power (see Greek Civil War) or come into conflict with British troops. Macmillan rode in a tank and was under sniper fire at the British Embassy. Despite the hostility of large sections of British and American opinion, who were sympathetic to the guerillas and hostile to what was seen as imperialist behaviour, he persuaded a reluctant Churchill, who visited Athens later in the month, to accept Archbishop Damaskinos as Regent on behalf of the exiled King George. A truce was negotiated in January 1945, enabling a pro-British regime to remain in power, as Churchill had demanded in the Percentages agreement the previous autumn. Read Less Show Less Macmillan was also the minister advising General Keightley of V Corps, the senior Allied commander in Austria responsible for Operation Keelhaul, which included the forced repatriation of up to 70,000 prisoners of war to the Soviet Union and Josip Broz Tito's Yugoslavia in 1945. … Read More The deportations and Macmillan's involvement later became a source of controversy because of the harsh treatment meted out to Nazi collaborators and anti-partisans by the receiving countries, and because in the confusion V Corps went beyond the terms agreed at Yalta and Allied Forces Headquarters directives by repatriating 4000 White Russian troops and 11,000 civilian family members, who could not properly be regarded as Soviet citizens. Read Less Macmillan toyed with an offer to succeed Duff Cooper as MP for the safe Conservative seat of Westminster St George's. Criticised locally for his long absence, he suggested that Lady Dorothy stand for Stockton in 1945, as she had been nursing the seat for five years. … Read More She was apparently willing. However, it was thought better for him to be seen to defend his seat, and Lord Beaverbrook had already spoken to Churchill to arrange that Macmillan be given another seat in the event of defeat.<br /><br /> Macmillan returned to England after the European war, feeling himself 'almost a stranger at home'. He was Secretary of State for Air for two months in Churchill's caretaker government, 'much of which was taken up in electioneering', there being 'nothing much to be done in the way of forward planning'. Read Less Macmillan indeed lost Stockton in the landslide Labour victory of 1945, but returned to Parliament in the November 1945 by-election in Bromley. … Read More In his diary Harold Nicolson noted the feelings of the Tory backbenchers: "They feel that Winston is too old and Anthony (Eden) too weak. They want Harold Macmillan to lead them."<br /><br /> Although Macmillan played an important role in drafting the âIndustrial Charterâ (âCrossbencherâ in the âSunday Expressâ called it the second edition of âThe Middle Wayâ) he now, as MP for a safe seat, adopted a somewhat more right-wing public persona, defending private enterprise and fiercely opposing the Labour government in the House of Commons. Read Less 1951 - 1952 2 More Events 1951 57 Years Old With the Conservative victory in 1951 Macmillan became Minister of Housing under Churchill, who entrusted him with fulfilling the pledge to build 300,000 houses per year (up from the previous target of 200,000 a year), made in response to a speech from the floor at the 1950 Party Conference. … Read More Macmillan thought at first that Housing, which ranked 13 out of 16 in the Cabinet list, was a poisoned chalice, writing in his diary (28 October 1951) that it was ânot my cup of tea at all â¦ I really havenât a clue how to set about the jobâ. It meant obtaining scarce steel, cement and timber when the Treasury were trying to maximise exports and minimise imports. 'It is a gambleâit will make or mar your political career,' Churchill said, 'but every humble home will bless your name if you succeed.' Read Less 1952 58 Years Old By July 1952 Macmillan was already criticising Butler (then Chancellor of the Exchequer) in his diary, accusing him of âdislik(ing) and fear(ing) himâ; in fact there is no evidence that Butler regarded Macmillan as a rival at this stage. Show Less In April 1953 Beaverbrook encouraged Macmillan to think that in a future leadership contest he might emerge in a dead heat between Eden and Butler, as the young Beaverbrook (Max Aitken as he had been at the time) had helped Bonar Law to do in 1911. In July 1953 Macmillan considered postponing his gall bladder operation in case Churchill, who had just suffered a serious stroke whilst Eden was also in hospital, had to step down. Macmillan achieved his housing target by the end of 1953, a year ahead of schedule. LATE ADULTHOOD 1954 - 1955 3 More Events 1954 60 Years Old Macmillan was Minister of Defence from October 1954, but found his authority restricted by Churchill's personal involvement. … Read More In the opinion of The Economist: 'He gave the impression that his own undoubted capacity for imaginative running of his own show melted way when an august superior was breathing down his neck.'<br /><br /> A major theme of his tenure at Defence was the ministry's growing reliance on the nuclear deterrent, in the view of some critics, to the detriment of conventional forces. The Defence White Paper of February 1955, announcing the decision to produce the hydrogen bomb, received bipartisan support.<br /><br /> âIt breaks my heart to see the lion-hearted Churchill begin to sink into a sort of Petainâ, Macmillan wrote in his diary as the Prime Ministerâs mental and physical powers visibly decayed. Macmillan was one of the few ministers brave enough to tell Churchill to his face that it was time for him to retire.<br /><br /> During the Second World War Macmillan's toothy grin, baggy trousers and rimless glasses had given him, as his biographer puts it, "an air of an early Bolshevik leader". By the 1950s he had had his teeth capped, grew his hair in a more shapely style, wore Savile Row suits and walked with the ramrod bearing of a former Guards officer, acquiring the distinguished appearance of his later career. Campbell writes âthere has been no more startling personal reinvention in British politicsâ. He very often wore either an Old Etonian or a Brigade of Guards tie. Read Less Show Less Macmillan was Foreign Secretary in AprilâDecember 1955 in the government of Anthony Eden, who had taken over as prime minister from the retiring Churchill. … Read More Returning from the Geneva Summit of that year he made headlines by declaring: 'There ain't gonna be no war.' Of the role of Foreign Secretary Macmillan observed: Read Less Macmillan was appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer in December 1955. … Read More He had enjoyed his eight months as Foreign Secretary and did not wish to move. He insisted on being âundisputed head of the home frontâ and that Eden's de facto deputy Rab Butler, whom he was replacing as Chancellor, not have the title "Deputy Prime Minister" and not be treated as senior to him. He even tried (in vain) to demand that Salisbury, not Butler, should preside over the Cabinet in Edenâs absence. Macmillan later claimed in his memoirs that he had still expected Butler, his junior by eight years, to succeed Eden, but correspondence with Lord Woolton at the time makes clear that Macmillan was very much thinking of the succession. Read Less Show Less As early as January 1956 he told Edenâs press secretary William Clark that it would be âinteresting to see how long Anthony can stay in the saddleâ. Macmillan planned to reverse the 6d cut in income tax which Butler had made a year previously, but backed off after a âfrank talkâ with Butler, who threatened resignation, on 28 March 1956. … Read More He settled for spending cuts instead, and himself threatened resignation until he was allowed to cut bread and milk subsidies, something the Cabinet had not permitted Butler to do. Read Less One of his innovations at the Treasury was the introduction of premium bonds, announced in his budget of 17 April 1956. Although the Labour Opposition initially decried them as a 'squalid raffle', they proved an immediate hit with the public, with Â£1,000 won in the first prize draw in June 1957. In November 1956 Britain invaded Egypt in collusion with France and Israel in the Suez Crisis. … Read More According to Labour Shadow Chancellor Harold Wilson, Macmillan was 'first in, first out': first very supportive of the invasion, then a prime mover in Britain's humiliating withdrawal in the wake of the financial crisis caused by pressure from the US government. Since the Egyptian Revolution of 1952, relations between Britain and Egypt had deteriorated. The Egyptian government, which came to be dominated by Gamal Abdel Nasser, was opposed to the British military presence in the Arab World. The Egyptian nationalisation of the Suez Canal by Nasser on 26 July 1956 prompted the British government and the French government of Guy Mollet to commence plans for invading Egypt, regaining the canal, and toppling Nasser. Macmillan wrote in his diary: "If Nasser 'gets away with it', we are done for. The whole Arab world will despise us... Nuri British-backed Prime Minister of Iraq and our friends will fall. It may well be the end of British influence and strength forever. So, in the last resort, we must use force and defy opinion, here and overseas". Read Less … Macmillan threatened to resign if force was not used against Nasser. He was heavily involved in the secret planning of the invasion with France and Israel. It was he who first suggested collusion with Israel. Read Less On 5 August 1956 Macmillan met Churchill at Chartwell, and told him that the government's plan for simply regaining control of the canal was not enough and suggested involving Israel, recording in his diary for that day: "Surely, if we landed we must seek out the Egyptian forces; destroy them; and bring down Nasser's government. … Read More Churchill seemed to agree with all this." Macmillan knew President Eisenhower well, but misjudged his strong opposition to a military solution. Read Less Macmillan met Eisenhower privately on 25 September 1956 and convinced himself that the US would not oppose the invasion, despite the misgivings of the British Ambassador, Sir Roger Makins, who was also present. … Read More Macmillan failed to heed a warning from Secretary of State John Foster Dulles that whatever the British government did should wait until after the US presidential election on 6 November, and failed to report Dulles' remarks to Eden.<br /><br /> The treasury was his portfolio, but he did not recognise the financial disaster that could result from US government actions. Sterling was draining out of the Bank of England at an alarming rate, and it was getting worse. The canal was blocked by the Egyptians, and most oil shipments were delayed as tankers had to go around Africa. The US government refused any financial help until Britain withdrew its forces from Egypt. When he did realise this, he changed his mind and called for withdrawal on US terms, while exaggerating the financial crisis. On 6 November Macmillan informed the Cabinet that Britain had lost $370m in the first few days of November alone. Faced with Macmillan's prediction of doom, the cabinet had no choice but to accept these terms and withdraw. The Canal remained in Egyptian hands, and Nasser's government continued its support of Arab and African national resistance movements opposed to the British and French presence in the region and on the continent. Read Less During his time as prime minister, average living standards steadily rose while numerous social reforms were carried out. The 1956 Clean Air Act was passed during his time as Chancellor; his premiership saw the 1957 Housing Act, the 1960 Offices Act, the 1960 Noise Abatement Act, the Factories Act 1961, the introduction of a graduated pension scheme to provide an additional income to retirers, the establishment of a Child's Special Allowance for the orphaned children of divorced parents, and a reduction in the standard work week from 48 to 42 hours. Show Less … Maurice Harold Macmillan, 1st Earl of Stockton, (10 February 1894 â 29 December 1986) was a British Conservative politician and statesman who served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 10 January 1957 to 19 October 1963. Nicknamed "Supermac," he was known for his pragmatism, wit and unflappability. <br /><br />Macmillan served in the Grenadier Guards during the First World War. He was wounded three times, most severely in September 1916 during the Battle of the Somme. He spent the rest of the war in a military hospital unable to walk, and suffered pain and partial immobility for the rest of his life. After the war Macmillan joined his family business, then entered Parliament in the 1924 General Election, for the northern industrial constituency of Stockton-on-Tees. After losing his seat in 1929, he regained it in 1931, soon after which he spoke out against the high rate of unemployment in Stockton-On-Tees, and against appeasement. <br /><br />Rising to high office during the Second World War as a protÃ©gÃ© of wartime Prime Minister Winston Churchill, Macmillan then served as Foreign Secretary and Chancellor of the Exchequer under Churchill's successor Sir Anthony Eden. Read Less When Eden resigned in 1957 after the Suez Crisis, Macmillan succeeded him as Prime Minister. … Read More As a One Nation Tory of the Disraelian tradition, haunted by memories of the Great Depression, he believed in the post-war settlement and the necessity of a mixed economy, championing a Keynesian strategy of public investment to maintain demand and pursuing corporatist policies to develop the domestic market as the engine of growth. Benefiting from favourable international conditions, he presided over an age of affluence, marked by low unemployment and high if uneven growth. In his Bedford speech in July 1957 he told the nation they had 'never had it so good', but warned of the dangers of inflation, summing up the fragile prosperity of the 1950s. Read Less His political standing destroyed, Eden resigned on grounds of ill health on 9 January 1957. … Read More At that time the Conservative Party had no formal mechanism for selecting a new leader, and the Queen appointed Macmillan Prime Minister after taking advice from Churchill and the Marquess of Salisbury, who had asked the Cabinet individually for their opinions, all but two or three opting for Macmillan. This surprised some observers who had expected that Eden's deputy Rab Butler would be chosen. The political situation after Suez was so desperate that on taking office on 10 January he told the Queen he could not guarantee his government would last "six weeks" â though ultimately he would be in charge of the government for more than six years.<br /><br /> From the start of his premiership, Macmillan set out to portray an image of calm and style, in contrast to his excitable predecessor. On his first evening as Prime Minister he took the Chief Whip Edward Heath for oysters at the Turf Club. He silenced the klaxon on the Prime Ministerial car, which Eden had used frequently, and advertised his love of reading Anthony Trollope and Jane Austen. On the door of the Private Secretariesâ room at Number Ten he hung a quote from The Gondoliers: âQuiet, calm deliberation disentangles every knotâ. Read Less Macmillan took close control of foreign policy. He worked to narrow the post-Suez Crisis (1956) rift with the United States, where his wartime friendship with Eisenhower was key; the two had a productive conference in Bermuda as early as March 1957. … Read More In February 1959 Macmillan visited the Soviet Union. Talks with Nikita Khrushchev eased tensions in East-West relations over West Berlin and led to an agreement in principle to stop nuclear tests and to hold a further summit meeting of Allied and Soviet heads of government.<br /><br /> In the Middle East, faced by the 1958 collapse of the Baghdad Pact and the spread of Soviet influence, Macmillan acted decisively to restore the confidence of Persian Gulf allies, using the Royal Air Force and special forces to defeat a revolt backed by Saudi Arabia and Egypt against the Sultan of Oman, Said bin Taimur, in July 1957; deploying airborne battalions to defend Jordan against Syrian subversion in July 1958,; and deterring a threatened Iraqi invasion of Kuwait by landing a brigade group in July 1960.<br /><br /> Macmillan was a major proponent and architect of decolonisation. The Gold Coast was granted independence as Ghana, and the Federation of Malaya achieved independence within the Commonwealth of Nations in 1957. Read Less In April 1957 Macmillan reaffirmed his strong support for the British nuclear weapons programme. … Read More A succession of prime ministers since the Second World War had been determined to persuade the United States to revive wartime co-operation in the area of nuclear weapons research. Read Less Macmillan believed that one way to encourage such co-operation would be for the United Kingdom to speed up the development of its own hydrogen bomb, which was successfully tested on 8 November 1957. … Read More Macmillan's decision led to increased demands on the Windscale and (subsequently) Calder Hall nuclear plants to produce plutonium for military purposes. As a result, safety margins for radioactive materials inside the Windscale reactor were eroded. This contributed to the Windscale fire on the night of 10 October 1957, which broke out in the plutonium plant of Pile No. 1, and nuclear contaminants travelled up a chimney where the filters blocked some, but not all, of the contaminated material. The radioactive cloud spread to south-east England and fallout reached mainland Europe. Although scientists had warned of the dangers of such an accident for some time, the government blamed the workers who had put out the fire for 'an error of judgement', rather than the political pressure for fast-tracking the megaton bomb.<br /><br /> Concerned that public confidence in the nuclear programme might be shaken and that technical information might be misused by opponents of defence co-operation in the US Congress, Macmillan withheld all but the summary of a report into the fire prepared for the Atomic Energy Authority by Sir William Penney, director of the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment. While subsequently released files show that 'Macmillan's cuts were few and covered up few technical details', and that even the full report found no danger to public health, but later official estimates acknowledged that the release of polonium-210 may have led directly to 25 to 50 deaths, and anti-nuclear groups linked it to 1,000 fatal cancers. Read Less On 25 March 1957 Macmillan acceded to Eisenhower's request to base 60 Thor IRBMs in England under joint control to replace the nuclear bombers of the Strategic Air Command, which had been stationed under joint control since 1948 and were approaching obsolescence. … Read More Partly as a consequence of this favour, in late October 1957 the US McMahon Act was eased to facilitate nuclear co-operation between the two governments, initially with a view to producing cleaner weapons and reducing the need for duplicate testing. The Mutual Defence Agreement followed on 3 July 1958, speeding up British ballistic missile development, notwithstanding unease expressed at the time about the impetus co-operation might give to atomic proliferation by arousing the jealousy of France and other allies. Read Less For a full list of Ministerial office-holders, see Conservative Government 1957â64. … Read More Change Note: In a radical reshuffle dubbed "The Night of the Long Knives", Macmillan sacked a third of his Cabinet and instituted many other changes.<br /><br /> During his premiership in the early 1960s Macmillan was savagely satirised for his alleged decrepitude by the comedian Peter Cook in the stage review Beyond the Fringe. 'Even when insulted to his face attending the show,' a biographer notes, 'Macmillan felt it was better to be mocked than ignored.' One of the sketches was revived by Cook for television.<br /><br /> Richard Vernon stars as Macmillan, with Michael Gough as Eden, in a three-hour-and-ten-minute BBC television play by Ian Curteis.<br /><br /> Macmillan appears as a supporting character, played by Ian Collier, in the 1981 miniseries Winston Churchill: The Wilderness Years produced by Southern Television for ITV. Read Less Show Less The Conservatives were re-elected in 1959 with an increased majority on an electioneering budget. … Read More In international affairs, Macmillan rebuilt the special relationship with the United States from the wreckage of the Suez Crisis (of which he had been one of the architects), and redrew the world map by decolonising sub-Saharan Africa. Reconfiguring the nation's defences to meet the realities of the nuclear age, he ended National Service, strengthened the nuclear forces by acquiring Polaris, and pioneered the Nuclear Test Ban with the United States and the Soviet Union. Belatedly recognising the dangers of strategic dependence, he sought a new role for Britain in Europe, but his unwillingness to disclose United States nuclear secrets to France contributed to a French veto of the United Kingdom's entry into the European Economic Community.<br /><br /> Near the end of his premiership, his government was rocked by the Vassall and Profumo scandals, which seemed to symbolise for the rebellious youth of the 1960s the moral decay of the British establishment. After his resignation, Macmillan lived out a long retirement as an elder statesman. He was as trenchant a critic of his successors in his old age as he had been of his predecessors in his youth. Read Less Macmillan led the Conservatives to victory in the 1959 general election, increasing his party's majority from 67 to 107 seats. … Read More The campaign was based on the economic improvements achieved; the slogan "Life's Better Under the Conservatives" was matched by Macmillan's own remark, '"indeed let us be frank about it â most of our people have never had it so good," usually paraphrased as "You've never had it so good." Such rhetoric reflected a new reality of working-class affluence; it has been argued that "the key factor in the Conservative victory was that average real pay for industrial workers had risen since Churchill's 1951 victory by over 20 per cent".<br /><br /> The Daily Mirror, despite being a staunch supporter of the Labour Party, wished Macmillan "good luck" on its front page after his win.<br /><br /> Britain's balance of payments problems led Chancellor Selwyn Lloyd to impose a seven-month wage freeze in 1961 and, amongst other factors, this caused the government to lose popularity and a series of by-elections in March 1962, of which the most famous was Orpington on 14 March. Butler leaked to the âDaily Mailâ on 11 July 1962 that a major reshuffle was imminent. Macmillan feared for his own position and later (1 August) claimed to Lloyd that Butler, who sat for a rural East Anglian seat likely to suffer from EEC agricultural protectionism, had been planning to split the party over EEC entry (there is no evidence that this was so). Read Less Show Less Macleod greatly accelerated decolonisation and by the time he was moved to Conservative Party chairman and Leader of the Commons in 1961 he had made the decision to give independence to Nigeria, Tanganyika, Kenya, Nyasaland (as Malawi) and Northern Rhodesia (as Zambia). … Read More Nigeria, the Southern Cameroons and British Somaliland were granted independence in 1960, Sierra Leone and Tanganyika in 1961, Trinidad and Tobago and Uganda in 1962, and Kenya in 1963. Zanzibar merged with Tanganyika to form Tanzania in 1963. All remained within the Commonwealth but British Somaliland, which merged with Italian Somaliland to form Somalia. Read Less Macmillan's policy overrode the hostility of white minorities and the Conservative Monday Club. South Africa left the multiracial Commonwealth in 1961 and Macmillan acquiesced to the dissolution of the Central African Federation by the end of 1963. … Read More In Southeast Asia, Malaya, Sabah (British North Borneo), Sarawak and Singapore became independent as Malaysia in 1963.<br /><br /> The speedy transfer of power maintained the goodwill of the new nations but critics contended it was premature. In justification Macmillan quoted Lord Macaulay in 1851: Read Less Show Less … In the reshuffle known as the 'Night of the Long Knives' Macmillan sacked eight Ministers, including Selwyn Lloyd. The Cabinet changes were widely seen as a sign of panic, and the young Liberal MP Jeremy Thorpe said of Macmillan's dismissals 'greater love hath no man than this, than to lay down his friends for his life'. Macmillan was openly criticised by his predecessor Lord Avon, an almost unprecedented act. <br /><br />Macmillan supported the creation of the National Incomes Commission (NIC) to institute controls on income as part of his growth-without-inflation policy. The NIC was founded in October 1962. However, largely due to employers and the Trades Union Congress (TUC) boycotting it, the NIC proved to be ineffectual. Instead, the National Economic Development Council (NEDC) was created. A further series of subtle indicators and controls was introduced during his premiership. <br /><br />In the age of jet aircraft Macmillan travelled more than any previous Prime Minister, apart from Lloyd George who made many trips to conferences in 1919â22. <br /><br />The special relationship with the United States continued after the election of President John F. Kennedy, whose sister Kathleen Cavendish, Marchioness of Hartington had married William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington, the nephew of Macmillan's wife. Read Less He was supportive throughout the Cuban missile crisis of 1962 and Kennedy consulted him by telephone every day. … Read More The British Ambassador David Ormsby-Gore was a close family friend of the President and actively involved in White House discussions on how to resolve the crisis. Read Less When Skybolt was unilaterally cancelled by US Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, Macmillan negotiated with President Kennedy the purchase of Polaris missiles under the Nassau agreement in December 1962. … Read More Macmillan worked with states outside the European Economic Community (EEC) to form the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), which from 3 May 1960 established a free-trade area. Read Less Show Less Macmillan also saw the value of rapprochement with the EEC, to which his government sought belated entry, but Britain's application was vetoed by French president Charles de Gaulle on 29 January 1963. … Read More De Gaulle was always strongly opposed to British entry for many reasons. He sensed the British were inevitably closely linked to the Americans. He saw the EEC as a continental arrangement primarily between France and Germany, and if Britain joined France's role would diminish.<br /><br /> Macmillan's previous attempt to create an agreement at the May 1960 summit in Paris had collapsed due to the 1960 U-2 incident. Read Less He was a force in the negotiations leading to the signing of the 1963 Partial Test Ban Treaty by the United Kingdom, the United States and the Soviet Union. … Read More He sent Lord Hailsham to negotiate the Test Ban Treaty, a sign that he was grooming him as a potential successor. Read Less President Kennedy visited Macmillan's country home, Birch Grove, on 29â30 June 1963, for talks about the planned Multilateral Force. … Read More They never met again, and this was to be Kennedyâs last visit to the UK. He was assassinated in November, shortly after the end of Macmillan's premiership. Read Less D.R. Thorpe writes that from January 1963 âMacmillanâs strategy lay in ruinsâ leaving him looking for a âgraceful exitâ. … Read More The Vassall Affair turned the press against him. Read Less The Profumo affair of 1963 permanently damaged the credibility of Macmillan's government. … Read More In the ensuing Parliamentary debate he was seen as a pathetic figure, while Nigel Birch declared, in the words of Browning on Wordsworth, that it would âNever (be) Glad Confident Morning Againâ. Read Less On 17 June 1963 he survived a Parliamentary vote with a majority of 69, one fewer than had been thought necessary for his survival, and was afterwards joined in the smoking-room only by his son and son-in-law, not by any Cabinet minister. … Read More However, Butler and Maudling (who was very popular with backbench MPs at that time) declined to push for his resignation, especially after a tide of support from Conservative activists around the country. Read Less By the summer of 1963 Conservative Party Chairman Lord Poole was urging Macmillan to retire. The full Denning report into the Profumo Scandal was published on 26 September 1963. … Read More Macmillan had a meeting with Butler on 11 September and was careful to keep his options open (retire now, retire in the New Year, or fight the next election). He talked the matter over with his son Maurice and other senior ministers. Over lunch with Lord Swinton on 30 September he favoured stepping down, but only if Hailsham could be shoehorned in as his successor. He saw Butler on the morning of 7 October and told him he planned to stay on lead the Conservatives into the next General Election, then was struck down by prostate trouble on the night of 7â8 October, on the eve of the Conservative Party conference.<br /><br /> Macmillan was operated on at 11.30am on Thursday 10 October. Although it is sometimes stated that he believed himself to have inoperable prostate cancer, he in fact knew it was benign before the operation. Macmillan was almost ready to leave hospital within ten days of the diagnosis and could easily have carried on, in the opinion of his doctor Sir John Richardson. His illness gave him a way out. Read Less He finally resigned, receiving the Queen from his hospital bed, on 18 October 1963. … Read More He felt privately that he was being hounded from office by a backbench minority: <br /><br /> C. P. Snow wrote to Macmillan that his reputation would endure as, like Churchill, he was âpsychologically interestingâ.<br /><br /> An early biographer George Hutchinson called him âThe Last Edwardian at Number Tenâ (1980), mistakenly in the view of Nigel Fisher. Fisher described him as âcomplex, almost chameleonâ. At times he portrayed himself as the descendant of a Scottish crofter, as a businessman, aristocrat, intellectual and soldier. Labour leader Harold Wilson wrote that his ârole as a poseur was itself a poseâ. Wilson also argued that behind the public nonchalance lay a real professional. Fisher also wrote that he âhad a talent for pursuing progressive policies but presenting them tactfully in a Conservative tone of voiceâ.<br /><br /> Historian John Vincent explores the image Macmillan crafted of himself for his colleagues and constituents: Read Less Set in 1963 during the Profumo scandal, Hugh Whitemore's play A Letter of Resignation, first staged at the Comedy Theatre in October 1997, dramatises the occasion when Macmillan, staying with friends in Scotland, received a political bombshell, the letter of resignation from Profumo, his war minister. … Read More Edward Fox portrayed Macmillan with uncanny accuracy, but the play also explores the involvement of MI5 and the troubled relationship between Macmillan and his wife (Clare Higgins) who had made no secret of her adultery with the wayward Tory MP, Robert Boothby. The play was directed by Christopher Morahan.<br /><br /> Macmillan was played by Kevin Quarmby in Gemma Fairlie's production of James Graham's play Eden's Empire at the Finborough Theatre, London, in 2006.<br /><br /> Never So Good is a four-act play by Howard Brenton, a portrait of Macmillan against a back-drop of fading Empire, two world wars, the Suez crisis, adultery and Tory politics at the Ritz.<br /><br /> Brenton paints the portrait of a brilliant, witty but complex man, tragically out of kilter with his times, an Old Etonian who eventually loses his way in a world of shifting values.<br /><br /> The play premiered at the National Theatre in March 2008, directed by Howard Davies with Jeremy Irons as Macmillan.

Harold Macmillan Camera Press/Globe Photos The son of an American-born mother and the grandson of a founder of the London publishing house of Macmillan & Co. , he was educated at Balliol College, Oxford . He distinguished himself in combat during World War I and entered politics after the war. He sat in the House of Commons from 1924 to 1929 and from 1931 to 1964. When Winston Churchill formed his World War II coalition government (May 1940), Macmillan, who had bitterly condemned British “appeasement” of Nazi Germany in the late 1930s, was appointed parliamentary secretary to the Ministry of Supply. After 10 months as colonial under secretary, he was sent (Dec. 30, 1942) to northwest Africa as British minister resident at Allied Forces Headquarters, Mediterranean Command. There his efforts to secure good relations with Dwight D. Eisenhower , Charles de Gaulle , and other high Allied officers improved his skills as a politician. Harold Macmillan discussing Britain’s position relative to the European Common Market, 1956. Stock footage courtesy The WPA Film Library At the end of the war in Europe, Macmillan was secretary of state for air in Churchill’s “caretaker” government (May–July 1945). After the Conservatives regained power in 1951, he was successively appointed minister of housing and local government (October 1951) and minister of defense (October 1954) by Churchill and then served as foreign secretary (April–December 1955) and chancellor of the exchequer (1955–57) under Sir Anthony Eden . He was appointed prime minister on Jan. 10, 1957, following the resignation of Eden in the wake of the Suez crisis, and was elected leader of the Conservative Party 12 days later. Macmillan immediately had to deal with a national shortage of money, and his chancellor of the exchequer, Peter Thorneycroft, resigned (January 1958) in protest against government spending. Macmillan worked to improve British-U.S. relations, which had been strained by the Suez crisis, and his old partnership with General, now President, Eisenhower was helpful in this regard. Macmillan himself supervised the conduct of foreign policy as prime minister. He had several conferences with presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy , and he visited Nikita S. Khrushchev in Moscow (February 1959). At home, Macmillan gave firm support to Britain’s array of postwar social programs. He led the Conservative Party to a resounding victory in the 1959 general election by effectively contrasting Britain’s prewar unemployment with its postwar full employment under the slogan “You’ve never had it so good.” Britannica Stories Ringling Bros. Folds Its Tent The Nassau agreement (December 1962) between Macmillan and Kennedy, that the United States should furnish nuclear missiles for British submarines, enraged Charles de Gaulle, who then was head of the French state and who insisted on a Europe uncontrolled by the United States. The subsequent French veto (Jan. 29, 1963) of Great Britain’s entry into the European Economic Community was a severe blow to Macmillan. For most of his term Macmillan had been held in high esteem by his party. But Britain’s adverse balance of payments led the government to impose a wage freeze and other deflationary measures from 1961 on, and this caused Macmillan’s government to lose popularity. Another setback was an apparent Soviet espionage attempt involving John Profumo , the secretary of state for war, which ended in the latter’s resignation (June 1963). Macmillan’s reputation was partly rehabilitated by the successful negotiations (July 1963) among Great Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union for the Nuclear Test-Ban Treaty , but demands continued within his own party for a new and younger leader, and, after undergoing surgery, he resigned his office on Oct. 18, 1963.	i don't know

Don't get me wrong, this is at the very least a good movie and is quite a terrific movie 2/3 the way through. What the movie does though in the last 1/3 is make the fatal mistake of turning into a Hollywood or maybe in this case a Bollywood movie. It takes away from that genuine and satisfying feeling. The acting all around was very good particularly from Dev Patel and the small kids. There performance are probably the only thing that is overlooked in this film. Without much of these very good performances the movie would not have been at the level it was at.The directing of Danny Boyle was his best yet. The look of the film was amazing and many screen shots of India were breathtaking. The musical score was very fitting to the style of the movie. It was one of the best scores of 2008. Where this film fell apart was at the writing. Towards the end its withdrew into a standard romance. It was no longer the great and amazing adventure we had witnessed for most of the movie. The complex relations seemed to be over simplified and it does the safe thing to do in the approach of tone but if taken into a drastically different direction could have lead it to be a real classic. Yet instead of ever peaking or sky rocketing to greatness it had plateaued and didn't deliver the way I had hoped it would, this largely in part by the failure of the screenplay. Many people have compared this film to City of God because the film are actually similar in many ways. Yet City of God has something Slumdog Millionaire does not have which is depth and character motivations. These things are vital to these kind of movies being successful. City of God seemed to have a more plausible story because the story was more linear. Events took place as a result of other events. This did not happen in Slumdog Millionaire, the story was more chopped up and too many of the events just seemed to pop up out of no where. Slumdog Millionaire did take a very ambitious approach in the way it was made which is commendable. Is this a 1st rate movie though? The answer to that is no. 309 of 544 people found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes	Danny Boyle

In Egyptian mythology who was the 'Earth God'?	Lessons In Electric Circuits -- Volume I (DC) - Chapter 4 Lessons In Electric Circuits -- Volume I Chapter 4 Scientific notation In many disciplines of science and engineering, very large and very small numerical quantities must be managed. Some of these quantities are mind-boggling in their size, either extremely small or extremely large. Take for example the mass of a proton, one of the constituent particles of an atom's nucleus: Proton mass = 0.00000000000000000000000167 grams Or, consider the number of electrons passing by a point in a circuit every second with a steady electric current of 1 amp: 1 amp = 6,250,000,000,000,000,000 electrons per second A lot of zeros, isn't it? Obviously, it can get quite confusing to have to handle so many zero digits in numbers such as this, even with the help of calculators and computers. Take note of those two numbers and of the relative sparsity of non-zero digits in them. For the mass of the proton, all we have is a "167" preceded by 23 zeros before the decimal point. For the number of electrons per second in 1 amp, we have "625" followed by 16 zeros. We call the span of non-zero digits (from first to last), plus any zero digits not merely used for placeholding, the "significant digits" of any number. The significant digits in a real-world measurement are typically reflective of the accuracy of that measurement. For example, if we were to say that a car weighs 3,000 pounds, we probably don't mean that the car in question weighs exactly 3,000 pounds, but that we've rounded its weight to a value more convenient to say and remember. That rounded figure of 3,000 has only one significant digit: the "3" in front -- the zeros merely serve as placeholders. However, if we were to say that the car weighed 3,005 pounds, the fact that the weight is not rounded to the nearest thousand pounds tells us that the two zeros in the middle aren't just placeholders, but that all four digits of the number "3,005" are significant to its representative accuracy. Thus, the number "3,005" is said to have four significant figures. In like manner, numbers with many zero digits are not necessarily representative of a real-world quantity all the way to the decimal point. When this is known to be the case, such a number can be written in a kind of mathematical "shorthand" to make it easier to deal with. This "shorthand" is called scientific notation. With scientific notation, a number is written by representing its significant digits as a quantity between 1 and 10 (or -1 and -10, for negative numbers), and the "placeholder" zeros are accounted for by a power-of-ten multiplier. For example: 1 amp = 6,250,000,000,000,000,000 electrons per second . . . can be expressed as . . . 1 amp = 6.25 x 1018 electrons per second 10 to the 18th power (1018) means 10 multiplied by itself 18 times, or a "1" followed by 18 zeros. Multiplied by 6.25, it looks like "625" followed by 16 zeros (take 6.25 and skip the decimal point 18 places to the right). The advantages of scientific notation are obvious: the number isn't as unwieldy when written on paper, and the significant digits are plain to identify. But what about very small numbers, like the mass of the proton in grams? We can still use scientific notation, except with a negative power-of-ten instead of a positive one, to shift the decimal point to the left instead of to the right: Proton mass = 0.00000000000000000000000167 grams . . . can be expressed as . . . Proton mass = 1.67 x 10-24 grams 10 to the -24th power (10-24) means the inverse (1/x) of 10 multiplied by itself 24 times, or a "1" preceded by a decimal point and 23 zeros. Multiplied by 1.67, it looks like "167" preceded by a decimal point and 23 zeros. Just as in the case with the very large number, it is a lot easier for a human being to deal with this "shorthand" notation. As with the prior case, the significant digits in this quantity are clearly expressed. Because the significant digits are represented "on their own," away from the power-of-ten multiplier, it is easy to show a level of precision even when the number looks round. Taking our 3,000 pound car example, we could express the rounded number of 3,000 in scientific notation as such: car weight = 3 x 103 pounds If the car actually weighed 3,005 pounds (accurate to the nearest pound) and we wanted to be able to express that full accuracy of measurement, the scientific notation figure could be written like this: car weight = 3.005 x 103 pounds However, what if the car actually did weigh 3,000 pounds, exactly (to the nearest pound)? If we were to write its weight in "normal" form (3,000 lbs), it wouldn't necessarily be clear that this number was indeed accurate to the nearest pound and not just rounded to the nearest thousand pounds, or to the nearest hundred pounds, or to the nearest ten pounds. Scientific notation, on the other hand, allows us to show that all four digits are significant with no misunderstanding: car weight = 3.000 x 103 pounds Since there would be no point in adding extra zeros to the right of the decimal point (placeholding zeros being unnecessary with scientific notation), we know those zeros must be significant to the precision of the figure. Arithmetic with scientific notation The benefits of scientific notation do not end with ease of writing and expression of accuracy. Such notation also lends itself well to mathematical problems of multiplication and division. Let's say we wanted to know how many electrons would flow past a point in a circuit carrying 1 amp of electric current in 25 seconds. If we know the number of electrons per second in the circuit (which we do), then all we need to do is multiply that quantity by the number of seconds (25) to arrive at an answer of total electrons: (6,250,000,000,000,000,000 electrons per second) x (25 seconds) = 156,250,000,000,000,000,000 electrons passing by in 25 seconds Using scientific notation, we can write the problem like this: (6.25 x 1018 electrons per second) x (25 seconds) If we take the "6.25" and multiply it by 25, we get 156.25. So, the answer could be written as: 156.25 x 1018 electrons However, if we want to hold to standard convention for scientific notation, we must represent the significant digits as a number between 1 and 10. In this case, we'd say "1.5625" multiplied by some power-of-ten. To obtain 1.5625 from 156.25, we have to skip the decimal point two places to the left. To compensate for this without changing the value of the number, we have to raise our power by two notches (10 to the 20th power instead of 10 to the 18th): 1.5625 x 1020 electrons What if we wanted to see how many electrons would pass by in 3,600 seconds (1 hour)? To make our job easier, we could put the time in scientific notation as well: (6.25 x 1018 electrons per second) x (3.6 x 103 seconds) To multiply, we must take the two significant sets of digits (6.25 and 3.6) and multiply them together; and we need to take the two powers-of-ten and multiply them together. Taking 6.25 times 3.6, we get 22.5. Taking 1018 times 103, we get 1021 (exponents with common base numbers add). So, the answer is: 22.5 x 1021 electrons . . . or more properly . . . 2.25 x 1022 electrons To illustrate how division works with scientific notation, we could figure that last problem "backwards" to find out how long it would take for that many electrons to pass by at a current of 1 amp: (2.25 x 1022 electrons) / (6.25 x 1018 electrons per second) Just as in multiplication, we can handle the significant digits and powers-of-ten in separate steps (remember that you subtract the exponents of divided powers-of-ten): (2.25 / 6.25) x (1022 / 1018) And the answer is: 0.36 x 104, or 3.6 x 103, seconds. You can see that we arrived at the same quantity of time (3600 seconds). Now, you may be wondering what the point of all this is when we have electronic calculators that can handle the math automatically. Well, back in the days of scientists and engineers using "slide rule" analog computers, these techniques were indispensable. The "hard" arithmetic (dealing with the significant digit figures) would be performed with the slide rule while the powers-of-ten could be figured without any help at all, being nothing more than simple addition and subtraction. REVIEW: Significant digits are representative of the real-world accuracy of a number. Scientific notation is a "shorthand" method to represent very large and very small numbers in easily-handled form. When multiplying two numbers in scientific notation, you can multiply the two significant digit figures and arrive at a power-of-ten by adding exponents. When dividing two numbers in scientific notation, you can divide the two significant digit figures and arrive at a power-of-ten by subtracting exponents. Metric notation The metric system, besides being a collection of measurement units for all sorts of physical quantities, is structured around the concept of scientific notation. The primary difference is that the powers-of-ten are represented with alphabetical prefixes instead of by literal powers-of-ten. The following number line shows some of the more common prefixes and their respective powers-of-ten: Looking at this scale, we can see that 2.5 Gigabytes would mean 2.5 x 109 bytes, or 2.5 billion bytes. Likewise, 3.21 picoamps would mean 3.21 x 10-12 amps, or 3.21 1/trillionths of an amp. Other metric prefixes exist to symbolize powers of ten for extremely small and extremely large multipliers. On the extremely small end of the spectrum, femto (f) = 10-15, atto (a) = 10-18, zepto (z) = 10-21, and yocto (y) = 10-24. On the extremely large end of the spectrum, Peta (P) = 1015, Exa (E) = 1018, Zetta (Z) = 1021, and Yotta (Y) = 1024. Because the major prefixes in the metric system refer to powers of 10 that are multiples of 3 (from "kilo" on up, and from "milli" on down), metric notation differs from regular scientific notation in that the mantissa can be anywhere between 1 and 999, depending on which prefix is chosen. For example, if a laboratory sample weighs 0.000267 grams, scientific notation and metric notation would express it differently: 2.67 x 10-4 grams (scientific notation) 267 µgrams (metric notation) The same figure may also be expressed as 0.267 milligrams (0.267 mg), although it is usually more common to see the significant digits represented as a figure greater than 1. In recent years a new style of metric notation for electric quantities has emerged which seeks to avoid the use of the decimal point. Since decimal points (".") are easily misread and/or "lost" due to poor print quality, quantities such as 4.7 k may be mistaken for 47 k. The new notation replaces the decimal point with the metric prefix character, so that "4.7 k" is printed instead as "4k7". Our last figure from the prior example, "0.267 m", would be expressed in the new notation as "0m267". REVIEW: The metric system of notation uses alphabetical prefixes to represent certain powers-of-ten instead of the lengthier scientific notation. Metric prefix conversions To express a quantity in a different metric prefix that what it was originally given, all we need to do is skip the decimal point to the right or to the left as needed. Notice that the metric prefix "number line" in the previous section was laid out from larger to smaller, left to right. This layout was purposely chosen to make it easier to remember which direction you need to skip the decimal point for any given conversion. Example problem: express 0.000023 amps in terms of microamps. 0.000023 amps (has no prefix, just plain unit of amps) From UNITS to micro on the number line is 6 places (powers of ten) to the right, so we need to skip the decimal point 6 places to the right: 0.000023 amps = 23. , or 23 microamps (µA) Example problem: express 304,212 volts in terms of kilovolts. 304,212 volts (has no prefix, just plain unit of volts) From the (none) place to kilo place on the number line is 3 places (powers of ten) to the left, so we need to skip the decimal point 3 places to the left: 304,212. = 304.212 kilovolts (kV) Example problem: express 50.3 Mega-ohms in terms of milli-ohms. 50.3 M ohms (mega = 106) From mega to milli is 9 places (powers of ten) to the right (from 10 to the 6th power to 10 to the -3rd power), so we need to skip the decimal point 9 places to the right: 50.3 M ohms = 50,300,000,000 milli-ohms (mΩ) REVIEW: Follow the metric prefix number line to know which direction you skip the decimal point for conversion purposes. A number with no decimal point shown has an implicit decimal point to the immediate right of the furthest right digit (i.e. for the number 436 the decimal point is to the right of the 6, as such: 436.) Hand calculator use To enter numbers in scientific notation into a hand calculator, there is usually a button marked "E" or "EE" used to enter the correct power of ten. For example, to enter the mass of a proton in grams (1.67 x 10-24 grams) into a hand calculator, I would enter the following keystrokes: [1] [.] [6] [7] [EE] [2] [4] [+/-] The [+/-] keystroke changes the sign of the power (24) into a -24. Some calculators allow the use of the subtraction key [-] to do this, but I prefer the "change sign" [+/-] key because its more consistent with the use of that key in other contexts. If I wanted to enter a negative number in scientific notation into a hand calculator, I would have to be careful how I used the [+/-] key, lest I change the sign of the power and not the significant digit value. Pay attention to this example: Number to be entered: -3.221 x 10-15: [3] [.] [2] [2] [1] [+/-] [EE] [1] [5] [+/-] The first [+/-] keystroke changes the entry from 3.221 to -3.221; the second [+/-] keystroke changes the power from 15 to -15. Displaying metric and scientific notation on a hand calculator is a different matter. It involves changing the display option from the normal "fixed" decimal point mode to the "scientific" or "engineering" mode. Your calculator manual will tell you how to set each display mode. These display modes tell the calculator how to represent any number on the numerical readout. The actual value of the number is not affected in any way by the choice of display modes -- only how the number appears to the calculator user. Likewise, the procedure for entering numbers into the calculator does not change with different display modes either. Powers of ten are usually represented by a pair of digits in the upper-right hand corner of the display, and are visible only in the "scientific" and "engineering" modes. The difference between "scientific" and "engineering" display modes is the difference between scientific and metric notation. In "scientific" mode, the power-of-ten display is set so that the main number on the display is always a value between 1 and 10 (or -1 and -10 for negative numbers). In "engineering" mode, the powers-of-ten are set to display in multiples of 3, to represent the major metric prefixes. All the user has to do is memorize a few prefix/power combinations, and his or her calculator will be "speaking" metric! POWER METRIC PREFIX ----- ------------- 12 ......... Tera (T) 9 .......... Giga (G) 6 .......... Mega (M) 3 .......... Kilo (k) 0 .......... UNITS (plain) -3 ......... milli (m) -6 ......... micro (u) -9 ......... nano (n) -12 ........ pico (p) REVIEW: Use the [EE] key to enter powers of ten. Use "scientific" or "engineering" to display powers of ten, in scientific or metric notation, respectively. Scientific notation in SPICE The SPICE circuit simulation computer program uses scientific notation to display its output information, and can interpret both scientific notation and metric prefixes in the circuit description files. If you are going to be able to successfully interpret the SPICE analyses throughout this book, you must be able to understand the notation used to express variables of voltage, current, etc. in the program. Let's start with a very simple circuit composed of one voltage source (a battery) and one resistor: To simulate this circuit using SPICE, we first have to designate node numbers for all the distinct points in the circuit, then list the components along with their respective node numbers so the computer knows which component is connected to which, and how. For a circuit of this simplicity, the use of SPICE seems like overkill, but it serves the purpose of demonstrating practical use of scientific notation: Typing out a circuit description file, or netlist, for this circuit, we get this: simple circuit v1 1 0 dc 24 r1 1 0 5 .end The line "v1 1 0 dc 24" describes the battery, positioned between nodes 1 and 0, with a DC voltage of 24 volts. The line "r1 1 0 5" describes the 5 Ω resistor placed between nodes 1 and 0. Using a computer to run a SPICE analysis on this circuit description file, we get the following results: node voltage ( 1) 24.0000 voltage source currents name current v1 -4.800E+00 total power dissipation 1.15E+02 watts SPICE tells us that the voltage "at" node number 1 (actually, this means the voltage between nodes 1 and 0, node 0 being the default reference point for all voltage measurements) is equal to 24 volts. The current through battery "v1" is displayed as -4.800E+00 amps. This is SPICE's method of denoting scientific notation. What its really saying is "-4.800 x 100 amps," or simply -4.800 amps. The negative value for current here is due to a quirk in SPICE and does not indicate anything significant about the circuit itself. The "total power dissipation" is given to us as 1.15E+02 watts, which means "1.15 x 102 watts," or 115 watts. Let's modify our example circuit so that it has a 5 kΩ (5 kilo-ohm, or 5,000 ohm) resistor instead of a 5 Ω resistor and see what happens. Once again is our circuit description file, or "netlist:" simple circuit v1 1 0 dc 24 r1 1 0 5k .end The letter "k" following the number 5 on the resistor's line tells SPICE that it is a figure of 5 kΩ, not 5 Ω. Let's see what result we get when we run this through the computer: node voltage ( 1) 24.0000 voltage source currents name current v1 -4.800E-03 total power dissipation 1.15E-01 watts The battery voltage, of course, hasn't changed since the first simulation: its still at 24 volts. The circuit current, on the other hand, is much less this time because we've made the resistor a larger value, making it more difficult for electrons to flow. SPICE tells us that the current this time is equal to -4.800E-03 amps, or -4.800 x 10-3 amps. This is equivalent to taking the number -4.8 and skipping the decimal point three places to the left. Of course, if we recognize that 10-3 is the same as the metric prefix "milli," we could write the figure as -4.8 milliamps, or -4.8 mA. Looking at the "total power dissipation" given to us by SPICE on this second simulation, we see that it is 1.15E-01 watts, or 1.15 x 10-1 watts. The power of -1 corresponds to the metric prefix "deci," but generally we limit our use of metric prefixes in electronics to those associated with powers of ten that are multiples of three (ten to the power of . . . -12, -9, -6, -3, 3, 6, 9, 12, etc.). So, if we want to follow this convention, we must express this power dissipation figure as 0.115 watts or 115 milliwatts (115 mW) rather than 1.15 deciwatts (1.15 dW). Perhaps the easiest way to convert a figure from scientific notation to common metric prefixes is with a scientific calculator set to the "engineering" or "metric" display mode. Just set the calculator for that display mode, type any scientific notation figure into it using the proper keystrokes (see your owner's manual), press the "equals" or "enter" key, and it should display the same figure in engineering/metric notation. Again, I'll be using SPICE as a method of demonstrating circuit concepts throughout this book. Consequently, it is in your best interest to understand scientific notation so you can easily comprehend its output data format.

Which town was the birthplace of the actor David Garrick?	David Garrick – Inspira Wiki Associated Dates: February 19, 1717 – Born David Garrick is one of the eminent spirits who appeared to President Wilford Woodruff in the St. George Temple on August 21, 1877. This interesting story is detailed in the Eminent Spirits Appear to Wilford Woodruff wiki. “David Garrick has gone down in history as perhaps the greatest English actor of his age. And excellent playwright his acting talents lay equally in tragedy and comedy. His performances of Shakespeare helped to revive the influence of this great master. In 1769, Garrick organized the first Shakespearean festival of Stratford-on-Avon. Born in a time in which acting and actors were at the lowest point of social acceptability since the 1400s, Garrick lifted the progression to a new respectability.” 1 “Let others hail the rising sun, I bow to that whose race is ruin.” – David Garrick 1.8 Death Life Sketch from The Other Eminent Men of Wilford Woodruff Copyright © Taken from the book: The Other Eminent Men of Wilford Woodruff . Special thanks to Vicki Jo Anderson. Please do not copy. English Actor and Director 1717-1779 Early Life David Garrick was born in the rural town of Lichfield, England, the birthplace of Samuel Johnson , who was at one time his schoolmaster. Although these men were both born in poverty and obscurity, they were to become the most commanding personalities of the eighteenth century in the world of literature and drama. Garrick’s reputation was not limited to England. Garrick toured France just before his retirement, where he created an admiration for Shakespeare’s works that burst into the greatest awakening of the French to an appreciation for Shakespeare. Garrick’s fame still echoes in the literature of France. It was perhaps in the creation of this bond between England and France that Garrick performed the work for which he was born. He is considered as one of those who did the most to dispel the clouds of prejudice which kept France and England separated. Ancestry Considering Garrick’s role in bringing France and England together, and it will perhaps seem no coincidence that the nationality of Garrick’s grandparents was French and the nationality of his birth was English. Garrick’s paternal grandparents were French Huguenots, who were driven to seek shelter in England after the repeal of the Edict of Nantes. The Edict of Nantes had granted religious freedom to Protestants in France in 1598, but it was revoked in 1685. Thousands fled France. The Garrick family (whose name at this time was De La Garrique) escaped to England from Bordeaux separately and with great difficulty. Eventually the family, including a brother and a sister was reunited. A fragment of a journal kept by his grandfather, also named David Garrick, lists the births and deaths of the family recognizing the hand of the Lord in all things. David Garrick To this first David Garrick was born Peter Garrick. In 1707, Peter married Arabella Clough who was of Irish descent. This couple had ten children, seven of whom lived. David Garrick was their third child. Peter Garrick became a captain in the king’s army. His wife was greatly devoted to her husband. Personality Clever and bright, with an engaging personality, David was an observer of people. He often entertained his friends with his imitations. He did not find school much to his liking for he had a restless spirit. When Garrick was about ten years old, he watched a company of strolling players and decided to put on a play. The play he chose was ‘’The Recruiting Officer’’. The cast consisted of his friends and a little sister. It was not long after this that he received an invitation from his Uncle David, his namesake, to come and live with him in Portugal. Uncle David was a prosperous wine merchant and was willing to train young Garrick in the business. Garrick’s stay in Portugal seems to have been more a success in the social aspect of his life than in the comerical aspect. He entertained the English community at their evening events with his imitations and his ability to give from memory long speeches and other acting tidbits. Samuel Johnson was to say to Fanny Burney that “off as well as on the Stage, [Garrick] is always an Actor.” This “education” of life abroad gave him in early glimpse of the world, and his interaction with people there was of invaluable training. However, his work with the ledgers did not prosper. Garrick was sent back home. Family “Father” Garrick’s father was unable to support his large family on his captain’s “half-pay,” so he volunteered for overseas duty. He was gone for five years. Because the eldest brother had also left for service, the responsibility of helping the family fell upon young David Garrick. He was fifteen years old. His mother’s health was poor and Garrick did all in his power to relieve the trials of his mother. When Garrick’s father returned home, his health, too, was so broken that he lived only a short time. When Garrick’s uncle David died, leaving him £1,000, a family council was held and Garrick and his elder brother Peter decided to use Garrick’s inheritance to go into the wine business, of which Garrick had some knowledge. Garrick was to warehouse the products in London and Peter would retail them in Litchfield. Drury Lane When Garrick left for London he carried with him a letter of introduction from Gilbert Walmesley, the Registrar of Diocese, who had a keen interest in the bright young lad. He wrote of Garrick: “as ingenious and promising a young man as ever I knew in my life,” who “has been much with me, ever since he was a child, almost every day; and I have taken great pleasure often in instructing him, and have a great affection and esteem for him.” (However, because of the death of his father, Garrick’s educational experience had lasted less than a year.) Garrick’s place of business was close to Convent Gardens theater. He attended all the plays that he could and became a friend with actors, stagehands, and directors. One of the leading actors who became a friend of Garrick’s said: “The stage possessed him wholly; he could talk or think of nothing but the theater.” Garrick submitted to the theater of Drury Lane a farce he had written and it was accepted. An Actor One night at Goodman’s Field the leading man suddenly took ill, and Garrick offered to fill in for him. He did so well that the audience did not notice the substitution. However, Garrick found the acting of the time very stifled, rigid. It seemed more a place for speech thriving and straightforward declarations than a place of acting. This troubled Garrick, for he felt that the stage should hold a mirror up to nature, showing its complexities. He felt it was his calling to effect a revolution. Garrick continued to act with some of the players from Goodman’s Field and his confidence grew. He began to immerse himself in his parts, acting with emotion and feeling. His voice was strong and melodious, his body light and agile, and he had a commanding set of eyes. He soon became known as the new wonder. When Garrick acted the theater was always full; when he did not, it was half empty. Through jealousies of the rival theaters Goodman’s Field was closed down by government decree and only two remained registered thaters were Convent Garden and Drury Lane. Garrick signed a contract with Dury Lane, which gained him a salary that far exceeded any previously granted to an actor. Eva Marie Viegel Nobles and titled people flocked to the theater to see this new wonder. Alexander Pope observed Garrick’s fresh and forceful style and commented, “That young man never had his equal as an actor, and he will never have a rival.” Mrs. Porter, a great actress of the time, prophetically stated after watching Garrick, “All hail, hereafter. He is born an actor, and does more at his first appearance than ever anybody did with twenty years’ practice…. What will he be in time!” Garrick eventually became the manager and owner of Drury Lane. He was an excellent money manager and began to be one of England. He established charities for which he would often give benefit performances, and cared for his brothers and sisters. Marriage Garrick married Eva Marie Viegel, one of the finest and most advanced dancers in the world. Their marriage was an everlasting courtship. She soon retired from the stage to support her husband in his management of Drury Lane. Garrick did not make decisions without consulting Mrs. Garrick. Retiring The Farmer’s Return, the farmer played by David Garrick During Garrick’s twenty-nine years as manager, he produced seventy-five plays and revised twenty-four of Shakespeare’s dramas. At last he announced his retirement and or three months gave farewell performances to packed houses. Then he and his wife left for his famous tour of France. Their tour coincided with the important translation of Shakespeare by Letourneur. The combination of these two events cemented Shakespeare’s reputation in that country. Because of the great admiration France developed for Garrick, new conciliation grew between England and France. Death Upon his death, all of England mourned. Johnson wrote: “I am disappointed by that stroke of death which has eclipsed the gaiety of nations and impoverished the public.” Garrick’s social gifts, his quiet integrity, and his private virtues combined with his great talents to give the dramatic arts the dignity it had previously lacked. His body was taken to Westminster Abbey by members of the highest nobility and placed in the Poets’ Corner at the very foot of Shakespeare’s monument. Samuel Johnson was observed “standing by his grace, at the foot of Shakespeare’s monument, and bather in tears.” Goldsmith eulogised him by writing: “Here lies David Garrick, describe me, who can, an abridgement of all that was pleasant in a man.” Copyright © Taken from the book: The Other Eminent Men of Wilford Woodruff.

History of Stained Glass \| Stained Glass Association of America Stained Glass Association of America Introduction There are many good reasons for the student to study the history of stained glass; first, to truly excel, the student should be aware of the romance of the medium. Henry Willet would talk extensively of the “lust and the lure and the love of stained glass.” While this cliché is admittedly melodramatic, it nevertheless gives an accurate feel for the attitude of someone who was passionate about the craft. Second, an appreciation of the history of stained glass will foster a dispassionate, critical approach in the student when appraising stained glass. The student of stained glass is urged to approach the medium with an informed, non-prejudiced understanding of the various styles to be encountered.jone Informed observation will free the student’s imagination for design, not to copy but rather to inspire. There are many excellent resources available for the study of stained glass and the student is urged to acquire a library of reference books that illustrate and describe specific installations in detail. However, there is no substitute for actually viewing stained glass in situ; that is, in its architectural surroundings. A comprehensive bibliography follows this chapter. Because this volume is intended as a reference of techniques for the stained glass artist and not as a history of the craft, this chapter should serve only as a starting point for the student who wishes to develop a deeper appreciation of the history of craft. It should also be noted that there are many periods that are imperfectly documented. For instance, 60 stained glass businesses were listed in Philadelphia’s city directories before 1900. None of those studios exist today, and little is known about them. The Obscure Beginnings of Stained Glass Many histories of stained glass begin with Pliny’s tale of the accidental discovery of glass by Phoenician sailors. The legend recounts shipwrecked sailors who set their cooking pots on blocks of natron (soda) from their cargo then built a fire under it on the beach. In the morning, the fire’s heat had melted the sand and soda mixture. The resultant mass had cooled and hardened into glass. Today, though, it is thought that Pliny — though energetic in collecting material — was not very scientifically reliable. It is more likely that Egyptian or Mesopotamian potters accidentally discovered glass when firing their vessels. The earliest known manmade glass is in the form of Egyptian beads from between 2750 and 2625 BC. Artisans made these beads by winding a thin string of molten glass around a removable clay core. This glass is opaque and very precious. Jean Lafond’s gripping story tells how, in the desert west of Palmyra in 1937, David Schlumberger, director of excavations, showed Lafond a cache of 115 colored glass fragments that Lafond described as “Greenish white, bluish white, moss green, two tobacco yellows (one more gold than the other), burnt sienna, smokey, three purples (one near wine, one more brown), a garnet of great beauty and two violet purples. A varied thickness adds to their nuances.” The greens had been blown in a roundel which he could surmise because of the presence of part of the outer rim. Several pieces showed a right angle and traces of a grozer on the edge. Schlumberger explained that these glasses had decorated claires-voies (literally “clear ways”) of stucco designed in elegant interlaced arabesques (Jean Lafond, Le Vitrail, P.20). In the first century AD, the Romans glazed glass into windows. They cast glass slabs and employed blowing techniques to spin discs and made cylinder glass. The glass was irregular and not very transparent. One of the oldest known examples of multiple pieces of colored glass used in a window were unearthed at St. Paul’s Monastery in Jarrow, England, founded in 686 AD. The oldest complete European windows found in situ are thought to be five relatively sophisticated figures in Augsburg Cathedral. (These five windows are no longer in their original setting. They have recently been moved into a museum and replaced with copies.) These five windows show fired glass painting which utilizes line and tonal shading and they are made of bright, varied colors of glass. The authors of Stained Glass say, “they are the work of skilled, experienced stained glass artists. Where are the children who are father to these men? Where are the earlier windows?” (Lawrence Lee, Seddon and Stephens. Stained Glass. P. 67) Authorities believe that Arabian glass windows appeared in the second half of the thirteenth century. Lewis F. Day suggests that Byzantine, Moorish or Arabian glass could have appeared by the tenth century AD. Pieces of glass were either inserted into intricate pierced marble or stone, or glazed in plaster before the plaster had set hard. Ribs of iron were often used to strengthen the plaster. Arabian filigree windows moved into Europe when the Moors entered Spain. As the fashion moved farther north into areas of more inclement weather, covering became more necessary. This covering usually came in the form of slices of alabaster. In Europe, plates of pierced lead replaced the plaster grillwork. The first of these had no glass in the decorative openings, but later small pieces of glass were attached using strings of lead. Arabian glass windows’ development was slowed because Islam allows no subject other than geometric or vegetal ornament. Traces of cold paint on glass have been found in the mid-east indicating that windows probably stood up better than those windows in damper climates. In 1930 at Saint Vitale in Ravenna, Italy, the archaeologist Cecchelli dug up three glass fragments showing Christ with a cruciform nimbus standing between an alpha and omega painted with grisaille. (The word grisaille applies equally to vitrifiable glass paint, as well as a style of lightly toned window that has been painted and stained in a decorative pattern.) It is assumed these fragments date from approximately 540 AD, the time of the construction of the building. In 1878 at a dig in a cemetery abandoned about 1000 AD at Sery les Mezieres, Aisne, France, Jules Pilloy found about 30 pieces of glass which had suffered from an apparent fire, a lead strip with two channels and a small slab of bone among some charred wood. The bone (which might have been a holy relic) pre-dated Charlemagne. Edmond Socard arranged the glass into a small, simple window. A cross patee, from which hung an alpha and omega, were painted and fired on it. This symbol was very popular from the sixth to ninth centuries. Unfortunately, this treasure was destroyed in 1918 during World War I. Fragments of a very early head of Christ were excavated in 1932 at Lorsch Abbey in Germany. This is similar to the better known and more complete head of Christ from the Abbey Church of Saint Peter, Wissembourg, Alsace (c.1060). The latter has more advanced glass painting with both trace line and wash. Because of their size and their aspect — that is, with the heads forward like the icon called the Panto crater, as well as the lack of any fragments showing bodies — Catherine Brisac thinks these heads were displayed as icons in the middle of windows in which they would have been the only painted elements. Christian iconography developed from pagan illustrations found in the catacombs. The beardless pagan god of the underworld, Orphaeus, was transformed into a youthful Christ the Good Shepherd. From the fourth century forward, He had a beard. The pagan phoenix and peacock were used for resurrection symbols. Wall paintings gave way to mosaics of ceramic tiles, stones and glass bits. Moving from the catacombs, the earliest Christians worshiped in their homes; then, when they became politically secure enough, the Christians built churches. The first churches housed the relics of saints. Architecturally, they were based on the basilica, the Roman law court. The cruciform floor plan developed from the Byzantine square floor plan with a dome added. European kings and bishops sent to Jerusalem and the east for holy relics. Their emissaries brought back small works of art such as cloisonne , damascene and carved ivory set with jewels and precious glass. Oriental and African craftsmen and glassmakers found their way to Europe as early as the third century. We can no longer agree with Hugh Arnold when he writes, “The making of stained glass windows is one of the arts that belong wholly to the Christian Era. Its traditions do not extend back beyond the great times of Gothic architecture.” (Hugh Arnold, Stained Glass of the Middle Ages in England and France. p.3) We can no longer say that stained glass is a purely Christian art form, either at its beginning or in its current usage. Romanesque Stained Glass Romanesque architecture is more uniform than the stained glass that adorns it. The walls are thick and the window openings small with rounded tops. Because the glass was set in small openings, it had to let in considerable light. Today Romanesque windows seem darker because of corrosion. Some figures in Romanesque stained glass stand or sit staring straight ahead. Some are involved in action as witnessed by their billowing garments. Some windows are made up of a series of events enclosed in medallions. The earlier windows of this style are more simple, primitive and rare. They depict well-known saints or stories from the Bible. Reverence for the Virgin Mary is prevalent at this time and she is often depicted as a queen. The windows use stylized vegetal ornament and decorative beading around the scenes and figures. The predominant colors are red and blue. This style of stained glass seems to have developed from cloisonne enamels and miniature paintings. Few Romanesque windows remain. Those that do remain are frequently found as illustrations in books; thus, they often seem familiar. Some examples of the Romanesque style are the Augsburg figures mentioned previously, c. 1120; parts of an Ascension scene from Le Mans Cathedral, c. 1140; the Great Crucifixion from Poitiers Cathedral, c. 1165-70; the facade windows and La Belle Verriere from Chartres Cathedral, c. 1150; and, at the end of the era, the great figures in the choir clerestories of Canterbury Cathedral, c. 1200. Gothic Stained Glass The medieval Church was the most important patron of the arts. Having made that statement, the name of the single person who most personifies this concept must immediately follow: Abbot Suger of Saint Denis, the royal abbey located just outside Paris. Suger was a fellow student and friend to King Louis VI, minister of Louis VII, and regent during the second crusade. His writings show him to have been a shrewd businessman, a politician with a genius for detail, and a devoted servant to his king. Suger reformed and rebuilt the abbey and augmented its wealth. As its treasures increased, many pilgrims told stories of it and its influence spread. Suger was guided by a philosophy including the mysticism of light; this philosophy compelled him to enlarge the windows and beautify them with colored glass. Window subject treatment grew during the Gothic period, expanding from simple figures to a complex iconography fully understood by only a few experts today. This iconography made use of symbolism based on bestiaries which can be called “unnatural history” and on complicated typology (Old Testament stories that symbolize New Testament events). Today, scholars study these windows to learn about the daily life of the time. Guilds of workmen donated windows that included likenesses of themselves engaged in their businesses. The appearance of heraldry in the windows demonstrates the increasing importance of secular families. This time saw the formation of new religious orders that needed new buildings. Many cathedrals and churches were built. The relationship between Saint Denis and Chartres is well established through a similarity of style and iconography. Stained glass historians today re-trace the work of traveling studios. Suger wrote, “Moreover we caused to be painted by the exquisite hands of many masters from different regions, a splendid variety of new windows both below and above: from that first one which begins with the Tree of Jesse in the chevet of the church to that which is installed above the principal door of the church’s entrance.” The latter was a petalled rose window, the first of its kind. A Jesse Tree window was soon after installed in Chartres. As the studios traveled from job site to job site, they took sketches and models along with their tools. The windows in Laon Cathedral show the influence of the Ingebourg Psalter. Le Mans Cathedral, Amiens Cathedral, Beauvais and some Canterbury stained glass is stylistically similar to the Paris-Chartres school. Although the cathedral is a contemporary of Chartres, the windows of Bourges are more archaic. Although Chartres’ stained glass depends chiefly upon reds and blues, in Bourges, pure whites, yellows and greens are prominent. The Gothic style was also developing outside France. The stained glass in the cathedral of Lausanne, Switzerland shows a marked French influence. Stained glass craftsmen from France are known to have worked at Canterbury in England, as did the French architect, William of Sens. French influence can be seen in Spanish stained glass of this time, especially in Aragon, Toledo and Castille. The windows in Leon Cathedral are significant although greatly restored. In Germany, the Romanesque style endured longer than in other areas. Notable windows are in Cologne and Strasbourg Cathedrals and the Franciscan Monastery of Konigsfelden. The international Gothic style came late to Vienna and Prague. The earliest remaining glass in Italy, in Assisi, is the work of German glaziers. The oculus in the Cathedral of Siena is called the “first modern window” because the subjects are treated as separate scenes. The window is a circle with a metal grid structure, rather than stone mullions, dividing it into petals. By the end of the medieval period, (the second quarter of the fourteenth century), perspective and volume were becoming evident. Subject was more pictorial and not subservient to the architecture Renaissance Stained Glass Renaissance stained glass is very different from that of the previous period. The themes are still principally biblical. Because subjects in renaissance stained glass are shown dressed in period clothing, a knowledge of the history of costume helps date windows. Allegorical themes are even more elaborate than medieval iconography. Figures represent abstract ideas. There are secular scenes in church windows. Stained glass was used in secular buildings during the renaissance period. Historic scenes or heraldry were placed in town halls and small panels (usually silver stain and paint on white glass) were incorporated into clear glass windows in homes. The labors of the seasons are a favorite theme during this period. In large church windows, the scenes extended over the whole, ignoring the mullions. Buildings portrayed in the windows are solid, in classical style, shown with correct perspective. Some action takes place far back from the picture plane with vistas in the distance. Faces have individuality and show emotion. The way stained glass craftsmen worked also changed. Artists drew cartoons on paper and were able to carry those cartoons to different clients. Sample books of patterns were also transported. Workshops stayed in one place through several generations, often attached to a cathedral that constituted their major employer. Finished windows were shipped to secondary customers at a distance. Studios joined together in corporations or guilds. Silver stain, flashed glass (abraded rather than acid etched,) and colored enamels were widely used. The diamond cutter was used, making possible larger, more complicated pieces of glass. Leads became thinner and less important to the design. In the fifteenth century, the city of Bruges, Belgium had 80 stained glass operations. The glass painting style of this area shows the influence of woodcuts. Although Gothic stained glass came late to Italy, the Renaissance style flourished early. It was championed by well-known artists such as Filippino Lippi, Lorenzo Ghiberti, Simone Martini, Taddeo Gaddi, Pietro Perugino, Donatello, Paolo Ucello, Domenico Ghirlandaio, Pacino di Buonaguida, Andrea da Firenze, Giotto, Giovanni Cimabue, Cortona Arezzo and the Gesuati brothers. Flemish stained glass designs in the Renaissance are akin to the oil paintings of the Van Eycks; that is, they often show energetic forms and contrasting colors. A characteristic crisp fold in garments is evident in this period. Lierre makes use of much white glass in The Coronation of the Virgin in Saint Gommaire’s Church. The drapery used on all of the figures is white, set against colored backgrounds. Large windows by Bernard van Orley in the Brussels Cathedral show the Coronation of Charles V. Dirck. Wouter Crabeth did windows in Gouda and then went to England to work. Henry VII of England brought Dirck Vellert from Antwerp and Barnard Flower and Galyon Hone from Holland to work on the windows in Kings College, Cambridge. The English glaziers who had a long tradition did not welcome them, but the Flemish had the King’s patronage, so the native craftsmen could only protest without redress. The cities of York and Norwich were very prosperous and have many parish churches with fine traditions of Renaissance stained glass. They were famous for their glaziers’ workshops. Spain had no early tradition of stained glass because Moorish occupation limited Christian church building. The Renaissance is its golden age. Italian, Flemish and French glaziers established the craft after the Moors left. Two brothers, Arnao de Vergara and Arnao de Flandres who worked on the Seville Cathedral, are particularly noteworthy. The Low Ebb Experts agree that stained glass reached a low ebb sometime between the late medieval age and the nineteenth century. Why did stained glass fall from favor? The reasons were religious, political and aesthetic. The Church had been the principal patron of the arts. The new Protestants were hostile to elaborate art and decoration. Even in the Roman Catholic countries, the Counter-Reformation called for simpler religious buildings. During the Thirty Years War, Cardinal Richelieu ordered all castles and palaces in Lorraine razed. Their destruction saw an end to the glass workshops that centered in the area. By 1640 colored glass was very scarce. This necessitated painting on white glass with enamels. The little decorative glass that was produced was mostly small heraldic panels for city halls and private homes. Stained glass that had been so popular just a few years before was no longer in demand. The glass craftsmen were in great misery, pushing their barrows from place to place in search of work. The English Parliament ordered all images of the Virgin Mary and the Trinity removed from churches. The Puritan principles of the Commonwealth inspired English adherents to smash stained glass windows with vigor. (Some fragments of early glass remain in traceries, as they were too high to easily reach.) The cost of replacing stained glass with clear glass finally stopped the destruction. Sometimes shattered pieces, left behind by the vandals, were reassembled into windows with no regard for subject. In Brittany, a congregation covered a window with dung and mud and whitewashed over to avoid spending money to replace it. In England, church buildings remained churches. This was not always the case in France, where, as a result of the French Revolution, they were often turned to secular uses. For example, Strasbourg Cathedral became a Temple of Reason. Some became museums, but many became stables, arsenals or storerooms. Several factors turned fashion toward the classic style. Even before the French Revolution, the baroque style was associated with vapid royalty. Ancient Rome became a symbol for a republican, rather than a monarchical government. Europeans became excited by antiquities. During this period, some windows were made in Oxford. Abraham and Bernard van Linge painted in enamels. William Peckett of York provided figures in enamels for the south transept of the York cathedral. Sir Joshua Reynold’s design in New College, Oxford was executed by an Irish craftsman, Thomas Jervais. The American artist, Benjamin West, provided cartoons for Salisbury Cathedral. An anonymous writer in The Ornamental Glass Bulletin, September 1923, praises Francis Egington’s painted glass. The clerestory windows of Saint George’s Windsor were then being reinstalled in new frames, and at that time, Egington’s fired enamel colors stood firm. Jean-Adolph Dannecker, a gingerbread baker in Strasbourg, wrote to the Superintendent of the King’s Buildings, Charles Nicholas Cochin in 1764, petitioning him to reestablish the stained glass craft. Cochin replied, “In truth use is no longer made of it because in neither apartments nor even churches do people want anything that might diminish the light. Thus in the event of it being proved that it (the art) had been lost and that it had been rediscovered, people would not know what use to make of it.” This is perhaps the origin of the term “Lost Art.” The Early Beginnings of Stained Glass in America Glass making was the first industry set up in America in Jamestown, settled in 1607. The English were running out of wood to fuel their furnaces. The endless forests and sand in the New World dictated the choice. To reassure his English investors, Captain John Smith wrote that the glass-making venture was a success, but the operation was very short lived. Bottles and window glass were the primary glass products of this venture. In 1637 or 1638, Evert Duyckingh came from Borken, a Dutch-German border town, to New Amsterdam (now New York). He was a painter, glazier and “burner of glass”. The sort of small house windows he made can be seen in Dutch paintings: a small round, square or oval panel set in a background of clear glass quarries. The subjects, often a family coat of arms, were applied with enamels and silver stain. Several examples of this type of glass are preserved at the New York Historical Society and the Metropolitan Museum of Art; while they are contemporary with Duyckingh’s work, it is not certain that they are actually his work. In 1648, Duyckingh took on Cornelius Jansen as an apprentice. In 1656 he requested payment for glass he put in a church, 2 1/2 beavers for each. Duyckingh also made a window for the City Hall showing the coat of arms of New Amsterdam. He wrote complaining he had not been paid. Labadist missionaries arrived on a ship in 1679 on which Evert Duyckingh Jr. was mate. Their new church window was made by Evert Sr. and another son, Gerrit. In 1674, the Duyckingh operation passed on to Jacob Melyer. In 1654, Jan Smeedes set up glass works in lower Manhattan to make roundels. Blowing spun roundels may be seen in old prints such as those in Diderot’s Encyclopedia. At first, the outer part of the roundel was in greater demand for glazing windows. The center with the punty mark was cheaper. Later windows of multiple “bullseyes” glazed in quarry patterns were quite popular. Churches in early America were simple meeting houses of wood or brick and white woodwork. Stained glass was out of fashion or economically impractical. Old Swedes Church in Philadelphia, when it opened, had no glass in the windows, only shutters. Small shutters inside the larger outside ones were used in cold weather. In the nineteenth century, William Gibson began the earliest known glass business in America around 1834 in New York City. This venture did not last, but he tried again several decades later and would promote himself as the “father of glass painting” in the United States. Robert Bolton, elder of one of the most interesting families in American stained glass history, came from England when he inherited property in Savannah, Georgia. The family moved for a time to New York State, then returned to England where William Jay and John were born. After a time, the family returned to New York and built a home in Pelham. William was a talented artist and studied with Samuel F.B. Morse. They made some small stained glass windows for their home and followed them in 1843 with the first-known American-made figural window, the Nativity for Christ Church at Pelham, New York. These were followed in 1844 by the tour de force of the fenestration of Holy Trinity Church in Brooklyn, (today Saint Ann’s and Holy Trinity). The elder Otto Heinigke wrote of them: “Let me tell you that there is nothing being done today the world over, that can compare with the vigor, the freedom and the fire of these remarkable windows.” Otto Weir Heinigke wrote: “I believe that group of windows to be the finest in this country in nobility of conception as an architectural decoration and as a comprehensive exposition of the history of God’s people from the Creation to Christ’s glorification in the Apocalyptic vision.” After this job, William Bolton returned to England and opened a stained glass studio in Cambridge where he worked restoring the windows of Kings College. Another window by him was recently rediscovered at West Lynne in Norfolk, England. When he went to Cambridge, William attended classes that were not available in America. While a student, he married, but his wife soon fell ill and died. This so upset him that he studied for holy orders and became an ordained clergyman. He married a second time and had several children. Meanwhile, his brother John continued to make stained glass in America long enough to do windows for the Church of the Holy Apostles in Manhattan. He, too, became a clergyman, and after one or two other charges, went to Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in West Chester, Pennsylvania. While there, he made the decorative aisle windows. The chancel window in that church is by La Farge and is a memorial to members of the Bolton family. Many years later, a visitor from Holy Trinity Church in Brooklyn sought out an aged daughter of William’s who was supposed to be on her deathbed. She had never heard of her father’s earlier career in stained glass. The story so excited her she arose from her bed and traveled from England to the United States to see the windows. The year 1844 saw the commencement of a set of figurative altar windows for the architect Richard Upjohn’s Trinity Episcopal Church. Upjohn contributed to the design that was probably produced by Thomas F. Hoppin. They were fabricated by Abner Stephenson. In the 1850s several important studios were established that would survive and promote the industry. Henry Sharp, Henry Belcher, Joseph and Richard Lamb of Lamb Studios and William Gibson (who had reentered the field) founded these studios. Despite these advances, the industry was still delicately balanced; it was growing slowly, which was a reflection of individual dedication and struggle. The quality of materials was limited compared to what it would be only a few decades later; further, the window artistry was largely derivative of foreign trends in the trade and decorative furnishings industry. By the 1870s, the economic prospects for the industry were improving. Scotsman Daniel Cottier and Englishman Charles Booth set up firms in New York and New Jersey respectively to capitalize on the expanded American markets. The Gothic Revival in the United Kingdom The English admiration for the medieval period is embodied in literature such Sir Walter Scott’s Ivanhoe, Goethe’s Faust, Tennyson’s The Idylls of the King, and as Victor Hugo’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame. The wealthy built castles for themselves modeled on those described in the Gothic novels. As early as the 1740s, Horace Walpole collected medieval stained glass and employed one of the few stained glass craftsmen left in England, William Price, to restore it and install it in his fashionable Gothic mansion, Strawberry Hill. Many windows were sent to England from the continent. A few enthusiasts kept their interest in medieval stained glass and assiduously collected pieces being discarded that would otherwise have been lost. Some of these panels are in museums today, in better shape than if they had remained in situ. In 1802, an exhibition held in London consisted of glass that was saved from the French Revolution. Since colored glass had gone out of fashion, little was made and the quality was generally poor. When the British studios became interested in restoring antique glass and providing new stained glass for Neo-Gothic churches, there was almost no appropriate glass. The person who is most credited with rectifying this situation was not a stained glass man at all, but a lawyer, Charles Winston. Stained glass was his hobby. He wrote a book containing his faithful drawings of medieval stained glass. His book included a translation of the monk Theophilus’ description of the process of creating stained glass. In 1849, he had fragments of beautiful old glass chemically analyzed and encouraged James Powell and Sons, Whitefriars Glassworks, to produce excellent colored glass. William Edward Chance also began experimenting with colored glass at that time, and in 1863, succeeded in producing an excellent red. Although Winston’s book was about medieval stained glass, he also appreciated the pictorial style windows such as were being made in Germany in his own day. He was opposed in this opinion by Pugin and his followers. Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin, was the architect who, almost single-handedly, established the Gothic style as the only viable ecclesiastical architecture. He started to build his first church in 1837. He then wrote Contrasts in which he stated that the classic style was pagan and unsuitable for the buildings of a Christian nation. He thought the Gothic style to be both more desirable aesthetically and more moral. Pugin also designed stained glass windows. Various studios fabricated his windows, most often John Hardman of Birmingham . At the time, the revival Oxford Movement (within the Church of England) aimed at restoring high church ideals. This was evidenced by increased elaboration of both worship services and the church buildings in which the liturgy was conducted. Demand for stained glass quickly increased. The Cambridge Camden Society published a magazine, The Ecclesiologist, which circulated Gothic architectural principles. Well before Pugin’s early death in 1852, other architects were taking up Gothic revival styles. Stained glass again contained flat decorative designs and lead lines that outlined and separated colors. Important studios and craftsmen were Thomas Willement, J.H. Miller, Betton and Evans of Shrewsbury, John Hardman, and William Wailes. Twenty-five English firms showed stained glass at the great Crystal Palace Exhibition in 1851. It is sometimes difficult to trace the studios that made the windows of this period. Parish records tell the donors more readily than the makers. Other notable studios begun in this period include Burlington and Grylls, 1868; Clayton and Bell, 1855; Gibbs, founded 1813, stained glass production started 1848; H eaton, Butler and Bayne, 1855 ; Lavers, Barraud and Westlake, 1855; Shrigley and Hunt, 1875; James Powell and Sons, makers of glass since the 17th century, began production of stained glass 1844; Ward and Nixon, later Ward and Hughes, 1836. William Warrington started a stained glass business in 1833, but went out of business in 1875. The others continued well into the 20th century. Many of these English studios still in business during World War II lost their archives either as a result of bombing or because they gave them up for pulp to make new paper. English magazines record that some firms had employed over 100 men. They may have done other decorating work in addition to stained glass. Their work is still treasured today. Some of its characteristics are flat treatment even in scenic windows, greenish white flesh, delicate painting, quarried backgrounds with a decorative silver stained motif in each pane, graceful architectural framing (canopy) or borders and liberal use of silver stain. A change in the philosophical climate was taking place in England and the world. In 1854, F.D. Maurice founded the Workingmen’s College in London’s East End. John Ruskin taught an evening course in drawing and design, and encouraged others to teach there also. When he was young, Ruskin often visited a friend, Charles Milnes Gaskell, who lived in a medieval priory. This probably awakened his admiration for medieval art and architecture. Ruskin so loved the priory that he supposed the workmen who created it had been happy. He widely promulgated Pugin’s view about the morality of Gothic style. He wrote Fors Clavigera (Fortune the Nail Bearer), A Series of Letters to the Workmen and Laborers of Great Britain. It was never read much by those for whom it was written, but it influenced British socialism to a Christian rather than an atheistic basis like Marx’s. William Morris’ philosophy was also socialistic. William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones went to Oxford in 1853 intending to become clergymen, but as the impetus of the Oxford Movement was then diminishing, they took up art. Ruskin and Morris would influence arts and crafts movements world wide In 1857 William Morris, then a young man of 23, took part in the painting of the Oxford Union frescoes which depict King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Characteristically, he felt he could not portray knights in armor unless he had experienced the feeling of wearing armor; he had a helmet and a suit of mail made to his own design by a surprised Oxford blacksmith. To the delight of his friends he insisted on wearing the suit to a dinner party and succeeded in getting his head stuck in the helmet. Morris soon realized his talent was not as a fine arts painter. The firm of Morris, Marshall and Faulkner was founded in 1861 because Morris could not find appropriate furnishings for the new home just built for him by Philip Webb. While the firm was a decorating company, stained glass was prominent from the first. Burne-Jones and Ford Madox Brown had some previous experience designing for stained glass, but at first, the group knew little about fabricating. Their first designs were produced as a joint effort. Burne-Jones was a master of line and composition. Morris, a less expert draughtsman, was unmatched at selecting color, so they complemented each other’s skills. The glaziers put the lead lines in the cartoons. Ultimately, they employed over a dozen craftsmen who also did decorating work. Their wives and sisters were pressed into helping, especially painting tiles and executing embroidery. In 1857, the original firm dissolved and the company was completely under Morris’ control. Burne-Jones and Webb stayed on. As Morris’ share of the actual work diminished, Burne-Jones was deluged with work. He accomplished a number of paintings as well as his work for the company. Evidence in their account books derived from payments made to photographers indicates that they began to use photographic enlargements of small sketches and repeated the same designs over and over. Morris died in 1896 and Burne-Jones in 1898. The company continued under John Henry Dearle , who had worked with Burne-Jones for many years as chief designer. Morris and Burne-Jones were so opposed to copying medieval styles that they would not accept any commissions supplying windows for old churches. Although most of their stained glass was done for churches, they also did secular installations since they provided complete decorating schemes. Favorite secular subjects were illustrations of medieval romances and ladies personifying virtues, the seasons and the arts, especially music. Ford Madox Brown designed a series of accurate historical portrait figures for Peterhouse, Cambridge University. While Brown and Morris were interested in medieval subjects, their style was uniquely their own, noble figures in classically inspired drapery on Morris’ leafy backgrounds or energetic flatly painted illustrations Many stained glass artists were influenced by William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones, including Henry Holiday , at first exclusively a designer, he set up his own studio in 1891; Charles Eamer Kempe , who set up a studio in 1869; and Christopher W. Whall, who founded a studio in 1897. Scotland also occupies a conspicuous role in the Gothic revival. Its style was different from the English. It was centered in Glasgow, which retains a greater proportion of its nineteenth century church and domestic glass than any other city in the British Isles. The People’s Palace, a museum, has a large, permanent collection. Ballantine and Allen founded their firm in 1837. Ballantine learned the trade in England. Francis Wilson Oliphant designed for Wailes and fabricated for Pugin. He published a small volume on stained glass in 1854, earlier than Winston’s. Other studios were William Cairney and Sons, 1828; Hugh Boyle and Company, 1850; David Kier and Sons, 1847. Kier was master glazier to the Glasgow Cathedral when it ordered windows from Munich on Winston’s recommendation and caused an uproar. Kier copied the Munich style. Daniel Cottier was born in Glasgow and apprenticed to Kier in the 1850s. He went to London and enrolled in F.D. Maurice’s Workingmen’s College where he heard lectures by Ruskin, Rossetti and Ford Madox Brown. He returned to Scotland as a designer for Field and Allan of Leith. He set up his own studio for decorating in 1865. In 1867, Cottier moved from Edinburgh to Glasgow. In 1869, he moved to London to open a branch, leaving his assistant, Andrew Wells in Scotland. Cottier’s style was greatly influenced by Morris. He founded Australian and American branches in 1873 and imported and dealt in French and Dutch art and furniture. J. and W. Guthrie founded a decorating studio in 1860 which grew to prominence after Wells moved to Australia for Cottier, leaving them its work. John Guthrie moved to London to operate a branch studio while William Guthrie stayed in Scotland. They employed C.W. Whall in 1890 and Charles Rennie Mackintosh about 1893 to produce decorative schemes and what are now Mackintosh’s earliest identifiable designs for stained glass. The Glasgow School of Art became an important factor in the cultural life of the city. When Fra Newberry became its director in 1885, he introduced decorative arts to supplement the conventional easel painting. Mackintosh attended the school from 1885. He was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites and the Japanese, but is not thought to have been very dependent on any outside influences. George Walton got the first commission for Miss Cranston’s Tea Rooms, which he designed with Mackintosh. James Herbert MacNair and Mackintosh married the two MacDonald sisters, also artists. Mackintosh was an architect, but made himself responsible for the decoration of his buildings. His windows were in abstract patterns. His designs were published, and influenced the Vienna Secession school of art nouveau. Charles E. Stewart, son of a stained glass craftsman, invented a “cameo process.” Instead of glass painting, heads and hands were cut and etched. In 1903 this was supplanted by the invention of acid etching, developed from the chemical isolation of fluoride in 1886. An Irish stained glass craftsman, Michael O’Connor won a gold medal in the Exhibition International in Kensington, London, 1862. He was a heraldic painter from Dublin who moved to London in 1823 to study with Willement. He returned to set up his own studio in Dublin and moved in 1842 to Bristol, then in 1845, to London. Near the end of the nineteenth century, Edward Martyn ordered a stained glass window from Christopher Whall for his family’s church at Ardrahan, Ireland. Martyn, who had founded the Palestrina Choir and the Abbey Theatre of Dublin, was interested in starting an Irish school of stained glass. He wrote, “If we are determined to have bad work, it is better to have it bad Irish than foreign.” He arranged for three windows in the new Cathedral of Loughrea to be executed by Whall in Ireland using Irish craftsmen. Whall was not able to stay continuously supervising the work in Ireland, so in 1901, he sent his chief assistant A.E.Child and two glaziers. Child and Sarah Purser, a portrait painter who had become interested in the project, then set up a stained glass department in the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art. The students helped in the execution of the Loughrea windows. In 1903, Sarah Purser and Edward Martyn organized An Tur Gloine (The Tower of Glass), a cooperative workshop for stained glass, mosaics and other related crafts. Purser ran the business until her death at the age of 94 in 1943, at which time, Catherine O’Brien took over the ownership. Harry Clarke was the only Irish stained glass artist of the time not associated with An Tur Gloine. When Clarke was young, Irish stained glass was poor and usually ordered from pattern books. When A.E. Child began to teach at the Metropolitan School of Art, Clarke became one of his students at night while working by day in his father’s decorating business. He won a traveling scholarship and visited French cathedrals. A series of windows depicting Irish saints for Cork University’s Honan Hostel Chapel established his reputation. He is also well known for his book illustrations. At his father’s death, he and his brother continued the business. Clarke’s designs are mystical, otherworldly and opulently detailed. There is nothing else like them. Considering that Clarke died of tuberculosis at the age of 42, he accomplished a large body of work, mostly based on themes from Irish literature. The Gothic Revival in France, Germany and Italy The art of stained glass died out more completely in France and Germany than in England. It was first revived in France in 1800 at the Royal Porcelain Manufactory at Sevres under a Mr. Dihl, who came from England. Guillaume Brice researched early methods. The chemist, Alexandre Brogniart, director of manufacture at Sevres, conducted much research to discover medieval techniques. He wrote in 1802, “the art of painting on glass is not lost: we have all the means to exercise it.” Nevertheless, it took him 20 years after that to find the formulas. (Catherine Brisac, A Thousand Years of Stained Glass, p. 145) From 1828 to 1854 Brogniart, with the patronage of King Louis Philippe, produced windows for the royal chapel at Dreux. They are painted with enamels on sheets of glass so large that firing them must certainly have been difficult. Artists Ingres and Delacroix, supplied the designs for the figures, and the surroundings were by Viollet-le-Duc. A giant in the French Neo-Gothic movement is the architect and artist, Eugene Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc. Viollet-le-Duc worked all his life to restore historic buildings such as the Chateau de Pierrefonds, the walled city of Carcassonne, and the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris. He was interested in all periods, but the medieval was scorned at the time, and he felt he had to save it. He thought of it as the French national style. Though his restoration methods are considered inapporpriate today, had he not acted many treasures would have been lost. Unlike other architects of his day, Viollet-le-Duc had practical skills as well as theoretical knowledge. He wrote the immense Dictionnaire Raisonne de l’Architecture Francais which contains a section about medieval stained glass. In spite of the interest of the king, the methods used at Dreux did not survive the increasing knowledge of medieval techniques; that is, glass colored in the pot, painted with metallic oxide, fired and joined with lead. In 1843, Count Charles de l’Escalopier translated Theophilus’ Diversarium Artium Schedula, Theophili Presbyteri et Monachi into French. This signaled great restoration activity in Europe by methods that are condemned today. However, they were undertaken after much study. Full sized tracings were made of the windows before they were removed. During the work, architects, master glass painters and archaeologists made inspections in the studio. Restoration taught glass craftsmen the old techniques, but they did not have today’s scientific methods. They treated corroded and blackened glass with hydrofluoric acid and scraped with metal blades. This was the best they knew, and they did not hesitate to replace panels they considered beyond repair. In 1844, Adolphe Didron Sr. started the magazine Les Annales Archaelogique, which featured religious articles aimed at both artists and clergy. In 1839, the first modern “archaeological” window was installed in Saint Germaine l’Auxerrois in Paris; Didron produced the iconography, Louis Steinheil designed and executed the cartoon and Reboulleau, a chemist, made the glass. Ancient windows influenced the style of the new. In 1845, Thevenot adapted the iconography and style of several windows in Bourges Cathedral to make windows for the Romanesque Church of Notre Dame du Port in Clermont-Ferrand. There was a wide use of medieval motifs during this time. Parallel with restoration and imitation of the medieval style of stained glass, the “picture window” derived from the Renaissance continued to interest some practitioners. This style consisted of a single composition extending over several lancets designed in a more realistic, less decorative style. In 1809, in a way that is typical of students, a group of young artists in Vienna defied their academic teachers and founded an art cooperative they called “The Brotherhood of Saint Luke.” Within a year, they were living in a commune in an abandoned monastery in Rome. They thought of themselves as following Albrecht Durer, who had traveled to Rome to study, and as being influenced by Raphael and Perugino. They were called The Nazarenes, first in mockery, but later with grudging admiration. They influenced the English Pre-Raphaelites, led austere lives and produced art with religious subjects, not all of it too facile. Best known of the group are J.F. Overbeck and Schnorr von Carolsfeld. Reproductions of their works were circulated throughout Europe. The art of the Nazarenes was readily adaptable to stained glass because they used flat colors and bold outlines. They influenced stained glass even though they did not work in the medium. Further German influences include Michael Sigismund Frank, who did his first glass painting in 1804, became the first manager of the Royal Bavarian Glass Painting Studio in 1827; and Max Ainmiller of Munich supplied some windows for Peterhouse in Cambridge University in 1855. Many consider Ainmiller’s most important work to be windows for the Cologne Cathedral in 1848. Franz Mayer founded a studio in Munich, which at first, produced sculpture and marble altars. In 1860, the studio began making stained glass. The studio restored medieval windows and executed new windows all over the world. It is impossible to estimate the quantity and quality of the windows they sent into the United States. Their branch offices in London and New York functioned until World War I. They are famous for heroic sized picture windows, extremely representational, with all the saints unmistakably German, that is, fair skinned, robust and hearty figures. Still in business, they now fabricate for free-lance designers. Francis Xavier Zettler ran the Royal Bavarian studio from 1870. Zettler was a recognized master who is held in high regard today, yet little has been written in English of him. The Oidtmann studios for glass and mosaic were founded in 1857 by a medical doctor and student of chemistry, Dr. H. Oidtmann. Working with glass slides inspired him to study stained glass. He founded a small studio as a sideline, but it soon grew into a major enterprise with 100 employees. At his death, his son Heinrich II, also a medical doctor and stained glass scholar, took over the stained glass studio. He wrote the book: Rhenish Stained Glass from the 12th to the 16th Centuries. He, too, died in his 50s, leaving the completion of his second volume to his son, Heinrich Oidtmann III. When Heinrich III died at the age of 40, his wife continued the studio. After the devastation wrought by World War II, Heinrich’s two sons rebuilt the studio, which is well known in Germany today for executing the work of many prominent designers. Art Nouveau The Worlds’ Fair was originally a forum in which visitors from all over the world were able to evaluate and imitate each other’s products. The first Worlds’ Fair was the Crystal Palace Exhibition in London in 1851. It was organized under the patronage of Prince Albert to show off the products of the Industrial Revolution. The increasing wealth of the middle class and their increasing mobility, due to railroads, induced the crowds to come. The poor artistic quality of the machine-made goods displayed inspired the Arts and Crafts Movement and its desire to restore handcrafted quality and good design. In 1862 in London, Japan participated for the first time in a World Exhibition. The western world first saw the Japanese art and handcrafts, which were to become extremely popular by 1867. In 1894, Tiffany glass was first seen in Paris when S. (Siegfried) Bing first exhibited oriental arts and ceramics. Bing was a key figure in the history of decorative arts. His Salon de l’Art Nouveau in Paris gave name to the movement. Bing commissioned Tiffany to fabricate ten panels designed by top fine arts painters: Bonnard, Grasset, Ibels, Ranson, Roussel, Serusier, Toulouse-Lautrec, Vallotton and Vuillard. Most of this group belonged to the Nabis (prophets) whose credo was to use flat areas of bold color heavily outlined in reaction to impressionism. The principal characteristic of the Art Nouveau style is its sinuous line. The principal subject is nature, whether stylized or realistic. The style varies somewhat from country to country. For example, the English did not use much opalescent glass and backgrounds are often light quarries with a silver stained motif in each; their domestic windows are similar to romantic book illustrations. German windows, on the other hand, show more heraldry, landscapes with castles, hunting and tavern scenes. The sinuosity is prevalent in the Belgian and French decorative windows. The work of the Spaniard Joachim Mir is hard to tell from Tiffany’s stained glass. Windows illustrating national legends by Hungarians Sandor Nagy and Miksa Roth seem to be inspired by Morris. Virtually every country produced “lady” windows like Eugene Grasset’s often-copied Spring. Executed by Felix Gaudin in 1884, it resembled the ladies on magazine covers and posters. Toward the end of the period some “Dignity of Labor” windows were popular. This is also the era of the large dome and skylight made possible by engineering developments. Artists of most countries used some opalescent glass, although drapery glass and plating several layers were generally carried farthest in America. Enamel painting was generally used, not always successfully. German windows of the period show an artistic use of many mechanical glasses. The windows contain many molded and cut jewels and can be considered a precursor of faceted glass. The term “Art Deco” developed during the Paris Exposition des Arts Decoratifs in 1925. Synthetic materials such as neon, Plexiglas, polyester, resin and plastics began to appear. It was at the 1937 World’s Fair that the world first saw what we now call faceted glass. American Opalescent Glass John La Farge is known as the inventor of the opalescent stained glass window and is the father of the American mural movement in the late nineteenth century. He was regarded as the premier American muralist of his time and an eloquent art critic. La Farge studied painting in France and with William Hunt of Newport, Rhode Island. La Farge became fascinated with the suggestion of highlights and shadows in irregularly made opalescent glass and how the glass muted bright light and created complimentary tones to adjacent colors. He was intrigued by the potential to render realistic subjects relying on the effects within the glass rather than by painting on glass. La Farge’s earliest opalescent glass experiments were conducted at Francis Thill’s glass house in Brooklyn; glass discs made by James Baker, a Manhattan window artist, also inspired La Farge. La Farge and Tiffany independently financed the experimental production of opalescent window glass conducted at Louis Heiht’s glass house, also in Brooklyn. Tiffany quickly began the production of pressed glass tiles. La Farge and Tiffany’s friendship came to a bitter end over the rights to use opalescent glass in windows, which La Farge patented in 1880. Tiffany filed a similar patent in 1881. Their glass experiments resulted in opalescent glass with multiple colors mixed in the same sheet. Under their direction, confetti glass; streamer; ridged; drapery; and thick, faceted glass nuggets and chunks were made at Heidt’s shop. Several glass houses also made great varieties of pressed glass jewels. In 1887, Kokomo Opalescent Glass Company began production; in 1889, they won a gold medal at the Paris World Exposition for their multi-colored window glass. La Farge also experimented with molding opalescent glass to depict distinct subjects. An excellent example is the molded glass flowers in Peonies Blown in the Wind, made for the Henry Marquand house in Newport, Rhode Island. He also experimented with what he called “cloisonne” glass, which consisted of small bits of colored glass contained by wires and fused in a kiln. The Old Philosopher for Crane Memorial Library in Quincy, Massachusetts was the first example of this rare technique. Several of Tiffany’s early windows exhibited the evocative potential in the new glass. A non-representational window for his apartment and the Eggplant window for the George Kemp residence in New York City used the irregularities in the material to suggest organic subjects, anticipating naturalistic approaches to Art Nouveau design. In the early 1880s, there was a small group of artists who worked with La Farge and Tiffany who were also attracted to the medium of opalescent glass windows. The most important of these early artists were Maitland Armstrong , Francis Lathrop, Mary Tillinghast, Thomas Wright, John Calvin, Frank Millet and Joseph Lauber. Armstrong, Tillinghast, Wright and Calvin continued careers as full-time glass artists. The realistic potential of the new materials to depict figures within natural settings was quickly realized by La Farge in his Infant Bacchus, done for the Washington Thomas House in Beverly, Massachusetts and by Armstrong in his Annunciation, crated for New York City’s Church of the Ascension. Early in her career, Tillinghast created Jacob’s Dream in New York’s Grace Church. Her window was a fantastic vision of angels ascending a ladder within billowing clouds of multi-colored opalescent glass. Thomas Wright assisted La Farge in creating several Symbolist Style works. Dawn at the Edge of Night and Autumn are works of stunning richness of color and detailed craftsmanship. Armstrong created an Aesthetic style tour-de-force in his windows at St. Columbia’s Chapel in Middletown, Rhode Island. These windows are a joyful kaleidoscope of styles and opalescent materials available in the mid-1880s. Lauber depicted figures of lyrical Renaissance grace in the Congregational Church in Montclair, New Jersey. Two spectacular engineering accomplishments were the stained glass dome in the Library of Congress by Herman Schladermundt and the Appellate Court Building in Manhattan, by Maitland Armstrong. Persons of skill and taste designed opalescent windows in many areas of the country, including Donald McDonald and Frederick Crowinshield in Boston and J. Horace Rudy of Philadelphia. The oldest existing studio in the country, the J. & R. Lamb Studio, created a beautiful series of American historic scenes for the Plymouth Church, Brooklyn. The largest studio from those times is still the best known today: the Tiffany Glass Company, which employed hundreds of people and produced thousands of windows. The company relied on a department of artists to design the windows. Artists Edward Sperry, J.A. Holzerm Agnes Northrop and Frederick Wilson were longtime employees of the studio. Wilson was the most prominent, designing strong, majestic figures such as in the Ivanhoe window. Wilson moved to Los Angeles in the early 1920s and designed painted Gothic windows. Northrop stayed with the firm for almost its entire existence, specializing in richly detailed landscape windows. Clara Driscoll designed many of the most popular lampshades, including the Dragonfly. American Neo-Gothic Stained Glass Makers of neo-Gothic windows referred to stained glass as, “the handmaid of the architecture.” The initial impetus to develop stained glass in the United States in the early nineteenth century was the early Gothic Revival among Anglican and Episcopalian congregations. The architecture called for decorative leaded windows to compliment the churches. The major American Revival architects, Richard Upjohn and Minard Lafever, designed the landmark Trinity Church and St. Anne and the Holy Trinity, that were discussed earlier. Gothic was the preferred church style in America from the late 1840s until the War Between the States; the stained glass trade gained a foothold during those years. Like the Classical, the Gothic style never disappears, but reemerges in popularity from time to time. The early twentieth century was a very rich period for American Gothic stained glass. William Willet laid the foundation for a new twentieth century revival when he founded his studio in Philadelphia in 1898. He designed windows of painted, richly colored antique glass with his figures reflecting a full-figured Renaissance influence that was the taste of the times. His wife, Anne Lee Willet, who ran the studio for a time after his death, assisted him in his work. His son, Henry Willet, was also a Gothic revivalist, but his preference was for small, jewel-like, early French windows. The most prominent spokesman for the Gothic Revival was Charles J. Connick . He lectured widely and wrote Adventures in Light and Color, the most respected and eloquent publication on the art form in the twentieth century. Connick expressed the opinion that stained glass’s first job was to serve the architectural effect; this opinion was in sharp contrast to the painterly effect that had dominated during the Opalescent era. Connick founded his Boston-based studio in 1913. Ralph Adams Cram, a Boston architect, was the most prominent spokesman for Gothic-style churches; many of Connick’s windows went into his buildings. Joseph G. Reynolds worked with Connick before founding Reynolds, Francis and Rohnstock in 1923. Wilbur H. Burnham began work in 1904 and had his own studio by 1922. All these Boston studios designed windows to serve the architecture. Henry Wynd Young and J. Gordon Guthrie were New York artists whose windows feature elongated, graceful figures who exhibited more painterly character. Studios all over the country were attracted to Gothic designs. Several of the more notable were Emil Frei in St. Louis, R. Tolan Wright in Cleveland and Nicola D’Ascenzo in Philadephia. Otto Heinigke was typical of these. A first generation American, unable to make a living at fine art painting, he went to work for John Riordan whose studio was successfully competing with Munich painted windows. Then, in 1890, he founded a studio with Owen J. Bowen. Bowen had formerly worked for both Tiffany and La Farge. A visit to the cathedrals of Europe inspired Heinigke with a love for medieval stained glass. Heinigke’s Statue of Liberty window on the cover of Stained Glass, Summer 1986, is opalescent. Cram’s favorite stained glass studio was that of Charles Connick. Connick had apprenticed in the studio of the Rudy Brothers in Pittsburgh where he worked on opalescent glass. He later apologized for once admiring it. He moved to Boston to found his own studio and met Cram. Cram called him an American craftsman, “who can do a window as it should be done, with the spirit and technique that must have impelled the masters at Chartres and Paris.” (John Gilber Lloyd, Stained Glass in America, p. 67) Connick said he used Viollet-le-Duc’s chapter on stained glass in the Dictionnaire Raisonne as the foundation of his work. Connick wrote a very popular book, Adventures in Light and Color, which he dedicated to Cram. He remained president of the Stained Glass Association of America for nine consecutive years during which time he ran it like a dictator. His second in command, Orin Skinner, was editor of Stained Glass for 15 years. Since Connick was closely associated with the architect who was the accepted authority, everyone adopted his principles without question. The stained glass craftspeople working in the neo-Gothic style understood very little about medieval iconography, which no one (other than a few scholars) had cared about for centuries. They imitated the color palette of Chartres, principally red and blue, with touches of secondary colors. They imitated the forms, medallion windows for the aisles and large figures for the clerestories. They imitated medieval figure drawing, once called “stained glass attitudes.” Since the ideal in the church was a “dim religious light” they imitated the patina of the ages with thin washes of glass paint and picked out highlights. Frank Lloyd Wright’s Stained Glass and the Machine Age Wright studied engineering at the University of Wisconsin where he read Ruskin and adopted Pugin’s philosophy as his guiding principle. He embraced the integrity of materials; stone should look like stone, wood like wood, glass like glass. Wright’s designs integrated buildings with landscape and furnishings. He introduced a new direction towards open interiors, a perfect setting for clear glass doors and windows. “Nothing is more annoying to me than any tendency towards realism of form in window glass to get mixed up with the view outside,” Wright wrote in an article in Architectural Record in 1928. His designs featured straight parallel lines and small squares in repeated patterns. The glass from the Coonley house has colorful circles like children’s balloons. The Martin house in Buffalo has over 100 leaded windows and a gallery between the house and a greenhouse. Unity Temple has a skylight of amber squares “to get a sense of a happy cloudless day…no matter what the weather.” (Erne R. and Florenc Frueh, Chicago Stained Glass, p. 64) One of America’s greatest architects was Chicago-based Louis Sullivan; he also designed geometric stained glass and frequently used opalescent glass. Like Wright, Sullivan designed the glass as an integral component of the architecture. C. R. Ashbee, an English craftsman, visited Frank Lloyd Wright in Chicago. Theirs was a lifelong friendship and Ashbee, in 1901, in his journal quoted Wright, “My god is machinery, and the art of the future will be the expression of the individual artist through the thousand powers of the machine… the machine doing all those things that the individual workman cannot do. The creative artist is the man who controls all this and understands it.” This emphasizes one of the most interesting aspects of the age, the preoccupation with machinery as evidenced in art. Tommaso Marinetti in his Manifesto on Futurism, 1909, wrote, “A roaring motorcar which runs like a machine gun is more beautiful than the winged Victory of Samothrace.” (William Fleming, Arts & Ideas, p.433) George Antheil composed Ballet Mechanique, a musical piece scored for planes, percussion and an airplane propeller. His piano pieces include Airplane Sonata and Mechanisms. Arthur Honegger composed Pacific 231, glorifying a locomotive. Parade — a ballet by Jean Cocteau with music by Eric Satie — was staged in 1917 by the Diaghilev Ballet. The dancers wore costumes suggesting skyscrapers. The score included typewriter noises. A ballet called L’Homme et la Machine with a stage set of machinery was performed at the Casino de Paris in 1934. Stained glass also glorified the machine. A 1927 French exhibition catalogue including work by Jeannin shows a series of stained glass windows in a newspaper office depicting transportation of news by auto and boat. Paule and Max Ingrand, in the Paris Exposition of 1937, showed stained glass panels of an airplane, an ocean liner and a jazz band. In the same exhibit J. Largillier had a panel of a train. The great movie palaces of the 20s and 30s with exotic decors featuring artificially lighted panels and giant skylights and opalescent glass light fixtures are a true expression of art deco. Twentieth Century Stained Glass in Switzerland and France In Switzerland, the first symptoms of a renewal are found in 1895, thanks to the competition opened for new windows in the Cathedral of Saint Nicholas, Fribourg. A Polish artist, Joseph Mehoffer, won the contest. The setting of those windows is a decisive date in the history of modern stained glass because they announced a renaissance on all sides. They were installed between 1906 and 1935. The French artist Maurice Denis discovering the work of Mehoffer in 1916 wrote in his journal, “This is a kind of stained glass all made new. It is newer and more beautiful than we make in France.” Some interpret this as an indication that modern French stained glass was really born in Switzerland and inspired by a Pole. Mehoffer’s windows are responsible for turning more than one painter to stained glass. Under their spell, Alexandre Cingria changed from a painter in oils to decorative art. Producing windows whose brilliance dispersed the shadows cast by trite religious rubbish, he and his brother, Charles Albert, began to write criticism of the current ecclesiastical art. Even more effective were the results of Cingria’s work, windows of color so splendid that he was called “the Tintoretto of stained glass.” In 1916, Cingria, Maurice Denis and Marcel Poncet collaborated on the decoration of Saint Paul’s Church in Geneva. Cingria became the leader of a group of young artists who called themselves the Society of Saint Luke. In Protestant Swiss Romond, they engineered a rebirth of Catholic arts. Thanks to Cingria, this was the most fruitful of all similar European movements. Worthy of much acclaim are Swiss artists Augusto Giacometti who is a brilliant colorist and Louis Rivier whose work is reminiscent of art nouveau style. Hans Stocker and Otto Staiger shared the same goals — to revitalize sacred art. In German Switzerland, they started a group they called Rot-Blau (red-blue) which flourished from 1926 to 1932. They did the windows in Saint Anthony’s church in Basel. The ideas of these two Swiss groups influenced the Dominican Fathers Couturier and Regamy who took over the review, Art Sacre, founded by the Society of Saint Luke. They received so much publicity on the church at Assy that they quite overshadowed the earlier groups who had first voiced the same goals. Louis Barillet and Jacques Le Chevallier founded a similar group called L’Arch et les Artisans de l’Autel, (The Arc and the Artisans of the Altar). Regardless of whether Maurice Denis took the new ideas from Switzerland to France, he collaborated with Marguerite Hure on windows in a landmark church, Notre Dame du Raincy, 1922-23, a concrete church with walls constructed of colored glass. Since 1870, the city of Nancy had been a center of arts and crafts. Jacques Gruber worked there with Daum Freres Glassworks. A process of casing colored glass over white glass was first developed for decoration on vases. In 1893, Gruber adapted this cameo process to stained glass by etching with hydrofluoric acid, the same process touted as original, when introduced by Charles Marq as a way to fabricate Marc Chagall’s designs. Father Alain Couturier, an artist, spent the years of World War II in New York, where he met many ex-patriot artists. After the war, he returned to France and began work on the important church Notre Dame de Tout Grace at Assy. Windows by Marguerite Hure had already been installed in the crypt and one window designed by Rouault had been contracted to be fabricated by Jean Hebert-Stevens. The earliest windows designed by Chagall and executed in 1957 by Paul Bony are in the baptistry at Assy, as is his ceramic mural of the Israelites crossing the Red Sea. Because the community housed a large tuberculosis sanitarium, the aisle windows contain saints associated with healing by Maurice Brianchon, Father Couturier, Paul Bony, Adaline Hebert-Stevens and Paul Bereot. The church at Assy is an exciting one artistically, although its failure may be from a lack of homogeneity. It was the center of heated controversy. Critics not only attacked it for daring to contain “modern art” but for having art by other than Roman Catholic artists. Because it stood firm, other churches had the courage to employ important artists who worked in contemporary idioms. Alfred Manessier designed the first abstract windows for the small country church at Les Bre[accent]seux and created a rare jewel there. Twentieth Century German Stained Glass H. H. Arnasson says that late 19th century German painting was “enmeshed in sentimental, naturalistic idealism.” (History of Modern Art, p. 154) This was also true of German stained glass. Think of the products of Mayer and Zettler. Revolutionary art movements proliferated in Germany and Austria about the end of the nineteenth century. They joined, broke up and rejoined like amoeba. Nearly all groups published manifestoes, most of which were muddy in concept. Werkbund and Werkstatte continued arts and crafts traditions. There was a little interest in stained glass in these groups, but not as much as in their English counterparts. Theo van Doesburg was associated with de Stijl in Holland. In 1920, he met Walter Gropius in Berlin who invited him to come to Weimar to give two courses at the Bauhaus. This fine school united all disciplines of art and craft, its influence spreading more widely when it was closed by the Nazis and its staff fled from the country, many to the United States. Josef Albers was doing stained glass at the Bauhaus. In 1922 to 1924, he made windows for a few villas in Berlin, now destroyed. Van Doesburg worked with Jean Arp and Sophie Tauber Arp in 1926 to produce a series of stained glass windows, their geometric compositions depending for interest upon thick lead lines. The real progenitor of contemporary German stained glass was Johann Thorn-Prikker (1868-1932) . He was a restrained expressionist and he produced fabric design, murals, mosaics, posters, and illustrations, in addition to a completely new style of stained glass. His first commission was for the fenestration of The Three Kings Church in Neuss, which he produced in 1911-1912. These windows were an important critical success but the conservative church authorities refused to allow them to be set until 1919. He worked in subject, symbol and non-objective styles. Heinrich Campendonk was one of Thorn-Prikker’s first pupils. He produced a monumental Crucifixion window for a cloister in Marienthal near Wesil in 1926. His windows for Bonn Cathedral, 1929-1931, are notable for lyrical color and cubist influence. Anton Wendling (1891-1965), was also a pupil of Thorn-Prikker’s. Wendling is best known for monumental windows in the choir of Aachen Cathedral. They blend some figures with geometric ornament. Erhard Klonk is another stained glass designer who worked in several media. He began his artistic life as a theatrical designer and a fine arts’ painter. He designed mosaic, laminated, fused glass and an interesting shallow carved wall technique called sgraffito. His stained glass designs are figurative, playful and naive. Some consider Georg Meistermann (1911-1990) the most versatile German stained glass designer. In 1938, he produced his first stained glass, but this was destroyed in World War II. He was especially busy after the war providing stained glass for old churches that had lost their windows, such as Saint Marien in Koln-Kalk, (Cologne) fabricated by Oidtmann. He is well known for a giant abstract window in a Cologne radio station. Ludwig Schaffrath has been called the most monumental stained glass designer. After Technical School he became the assistant and collaborator of Wendling, who somewhat influenced him. He renounced all pictorial art in favor of decorative lines. His first stained glass installation was the colorless glass windows in the cloister of Aachen cathedral. He also designs large mosaics of stone, glass and other materials. In his maturity, he had the courage to travel in new directions and has achieved new heights in his window wall in a railroad station in Omiya, Japan, which was fabricated by Oidtmann. This project is still abstract, but in the true sense of the word, inspired by light and water. It is right for the location in scale and color, which is bright, not monochromatic like his earlier work. He has great influence on young artists through his traveling and teaching workshops. His work always attracts publicity. Johannes Schreiter’s first designs after school showed the influence of abstract painting. He developed a new style using light filtered through glass with prominent geometric lead lines. His later work was of a style that he calls “brand collage” and was inspired by burned paper. Jochem Poensgen, born 1931, leaned heavily on colorless industrial glass. He used sandblasting, tempering and incorporating plaques of cement. Carefully controlled light penetrates between repeated shapes. Wilhelm Bushulte, born 1923, turns to figurative abstract art. He developed his ideas in relation to architecture, as did his contemporaries, but his shapes and colors were more exciting than the usual German monochrome. He uses saturated color balanced against white opal glass. The period after World War II was devoted to restoration, rebuilding and replacing destroyed buildings and stained glass. A new generation of stained glass artists reached adulthood after World War II, some copying their masters, and some developing along new lines. Twentieth Century Stained Glass in England and Other Countries From William Morris forward, the English produced a lively amount of work, but in more or less the same style, by more or less the same studios. Replacing glass destroyed during World War II resulted in some new work, just as it did in France and Germany. Most significant of all was the new Coventry Cathedral built in 1962. A whole new building was constructed at right angles to the ruins of the old. The two are separated from each other by John Hutton’s great sand carved window wall which allows a view of the ruins from the nave and of the whole nave from the grassy ruins through layers of wheel-engraved saints and angels. This is the masterpiece among masterpieces in this giant edifice. The small stained glass department at the Royal College of Art began from the Morris tradition. A highly successful college exhibition in 1950 under the directorship of Lawrence Lee and an article published in the college journal brought the department to the attention of the architect Basil Spence. He approached the college about stained glass for Coventry and the students were invited to submit sketches. Scholars were to be paid like professionals to quiet any accusation of unfair competition. Geoffrey Clarke, Keith New and Lawrence Lee won the commission to do the aisle windows as a team. These are on an angle, are seen from the chancel, and throw light on the altar. Spence chose the colors and themes; youth: green, the first flush of adulthood: red; midlife: multi-colored; old age: deep purple with flecks of gold; after-life: golden. The designs are semi-abstract. Each of the three artists designed two windows in their color preference. Margaret Traherne was chosen to design windows in dalle de verre for the Chapel of Unity. The Baptistry bank of windows was designed by John Piper and fabricated by Patrick Reyntiens. Piper worked in many media before he turned to stained glass as his career matured. The collaboration of these two artists on windows for the Oundle School Chapel led to the commission to do the baptistry at Coventry. They produced the most lively, interesting work in England. Patrick Reyntiens’ name is probably even better known for writing the first how-to-do-it book of recent vintage. The Technique of Stained Glass is very complete, geared to a professional approach and is considered by many to be the best of its kind. Hungary Erwin Bossanyi was one of the greatest stained glass craftsmen in our era. He was born in Hungary and studied at the Budapest Academy of Arts and Crafts; he was exiled during World War I and interned in France. He worked for 15 years in Germany and, in 1934, fled to England, accounting for his inclusion with the English craftspeople. His work is in the Tate Gallery in London, Canterbury Cathedral and the Washington Cathedral. In Bossanyi’s obituary, John Bayless wrote, “He poured his life and soul into his plea to mankind to turn the world into a community of love and mutual understanding.” (Stained Glass, Summer 1975, p. 86) After so much suffering and exile, his colors remained joyous. His themes are both naive and sophisticated. He alone did the design and fabrication of his work so his output was limited. Canada The earliest continuing studio in North America, founded in 1850, in Toronto, Canada, is Robert McCausland Ltd. The first McCausland was trained in Ireland. This studio does traditional windows, and has done two-thirds of all the stained glass in Canada. Yvonne Williams, a native Canadian, after apprenticing with Connick and working briefly in the United States, opened her studio in Toronto in 1934. She trained many craftspeople such as Ellen Simon. There is also a group of Canadians doing abstract architectural stained glass heavily influenced by the modern Germans. Australia and New Zealand As Australians and New Zealanders became wealthy enough in the late 19th century, they imported stained glass from England. An unusual feature of it was the use of native flora and fauna as decorative elements. The depression of the 1930s put the few native studios out of business. In the 1950s and 1960s, Australia experienced a cultural awakening. The arts produced, though based on European models, had an Australian emphasis. In the 1970s, a group of young artists began making autonomous panels. New Zealand has a lively tradition of decorative domestic windows. New Zealand students returned home after studying in the United States with news of the German influence. They also trace some influence to Japanese visitors. In 1981, Ludwig Schaffrath lectured and gave workshops in Australia. An exhibition of contemporary German glass accompanied him to Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne and Adelaide. He also lectured at Langer, New Zealand. Africa Paul Blomkamp wrote a letter that was printed in Stained Glass in the Fall issue of 1983 in which he described his work in stained glass in South Africa. Because lead came was impossible to find, he began to use resin bonding but using thin glass, not dalles. Later, he bought a lead milling machine from Germany. Leon Theron is producing faceted glass in South Africa. An American, Reed Harvey is teaching stained glass in Liberia. He and his pupils have created church windows that have a primitive naivete in Monrovia. Mexico In 1875, an Italian-Swiss craftsman, Claudio Pellandi, made the first window glass in Mexico. In 1900, he established a studio for leaded glass, etching, beveling and silvering mirrors. In 1898, two North Americans, MacDaniel and Wineburgh advertised “Artistic Windows.” When MacDaniel died, Wineburgh merged his studio with Pellandi’s. Juan Navarrete was their designer. He taught Francisco Lugo, whom in turn taught Enrique Villasenor. In 1920, Villasen[accent]or set up a stained glass department in the Architectural School of the National University of Mexico. In 1929, Diego Rivera produced designs for stained glass windows in the Palace of Health. The windows were executed by Villasen[accent]or. Mexican stained glass consistently won medals at International Expositions. In 1982, Rufino Tamayo designed a laminated glass mural that was executed by Glasindustrie Van Tetterode in Amsterdam. At 25′ by 25′, it is the largest laminated work of art in the world and it is installed in a museum in Mexico City. The Netherlands Sometimes a stained glass artist is associated with more than one country, or at least, his principal work was not done in his native land. Arnold Maas was Dutch, worked for a time at the Rambusch Studio in New York, but is associated principally with Puerto Rico where his most distinctive work is found. He worked in leaded and faceted glass, mosaic and a process of his own he called “opalino” which seems to be similar to a process called “opus sectile”, which uses flat opaque glass, cut to shape, painted, fired, then used like a mosaic on a background and grouted. While in New York, Maas worked with another better-known Dutch artist, Joep Nicholas. Nicholas’ grandfather started a studio in Roermond, Holland. When Joep was young he studied law, and painted for a hobby. When he began to win prizes for art, he slipped into the family business. He is responsible for impressive windows in New Church, Delft and New Church, Amsterdam. In 1940, he left Holland for New York. His daughter is carrying on the family tradition of working in stained glass. Belgium and Holland have a grand tradition of Renaissance stained glass. Since World War II, a large group of artists including Eugene Yoors, J. Hendricx, Michel Martens and F. Colpaert have worked there in the contemporary style. Italy In 1902, an exposition that spurred artists and decorators to explore art nouveau designs was held in Turin. Giovanni Beltrami from Milan produced decorative windows for Casino Pellegrino in Vichy, France between 1905 and 1907. These are not very original. Scipione Ballardini, born 1889, was responsible for the revival of stained glass in Verona in the twentieth century. He learned from a French master and was engaged in restoring damage after World War II. After his death, his studio continued under Ghidoli. Other prominent Italian artists include Salvatore Cavallini, Albano Poli, Giuseppe Nenci, Lino Boschetto, Lindo and Allesandro Grassi and Feodoro Wolf-Ferrari. Poland The windows in Fribourg by Jozef Mehoffer (1869-1946) were mentioned in relation to Switzerland. The artist studied in Paris where he was associated with the Nabis and exhibited paintings with the Vienna Secessionists. Some of his windows exist in Wawel Cathedral as well as in Switzerland. Stanislaw Wyspianski created stained glass windows in a Franciscan Church in Krakow, Poland. In 1958, the Stained Glass Association of America was represented at the World Trade Fair in Poznan, Poland. Panels by six member studios and some apprentices were displayed along with many photographs. Henry Lee Willet was the official representative. He and a Polish stained glass craftswoman Maria Powalsz demonstrated the process for six weeks. At that time, he reported six stained glass studios in all of Poland. One had just been put out of business for stockpiling materials. When Willet returned, he brought with him a short film of the Dobrzanski stained glass studio in Krakow. The craftsmen are shown working on a set of saints for an orthodox monastery which are very beautiful and resemble Byzantine icons. Scandinavia Emmanuel Vigelund, a Norwegian master craftsman, was born in 1875 and attended the School of Arts and Crafts in Christianna from 1898 to 1902. He then traveled and worked in Kroyer, Copenhagen and Paris. Vigelund won the Henricksen prize to study stained glass in France. His work has the quality of a book illustration, somewhat reminiscent of Harry Clarke’s. Einar Forseth designed five windows for the new Coventry Cathedral in England, a gift from the churches of Sweden. Nina Tryggvadottir, an Icelandic artist, has work fabricated by Oidtmann in Germany. She designs with paper collage. Other prominent Scandinavian names include Bo Viktor Beskow, Sweden; Leifur Breidfjord, Iceland; Lennart Rhoda, Sweden; and Sven Erixson, Sweden. Russia & the Baltic Countries There is no tradition of stained glass in the Orthodox churches in Russia. When USSR invaded Lithuania and Latvia after World War II, Russia adopted their traditions. Stained glass has been made in Lithuania for at least four centuries. The earliest stained glass artist to work in the Riga Cathedral was Anton Dietrich, who trained at Mayer’s in Munich and at Bruno Urban’s in Dresden. Alfred Kahlert, Franz Weber and Ernst Tod made additional windows for the cathedral in Riga. They are typical of turn of the century German work. Latvian stained glass craftsmen include such men as Karlis Brencens, who set up a course in an art school in 1920 and Janis Rozentals (1866-1917) who created patriotic themes. Stasys Usinskas (1905-1974) is the father of Lithuanian stained glass. He studied in Paris and his work is very representational. Algimentas Stoskus, born 1925, produced innovative dalle de verre using very thick slabs. His work is non-representational. His pupils include Kazimieras Morkunas, whose dalles look to be molded to shape; Antanas Garbuskas, who uses both dalles and leaded glass to make allegorical figures and conventional ornament; Anorte Mackelaite; Filomena Usinskaite; Kostantinus Satunas and Bronius Bruzas. Israel Marc Chagall’s designs for stained glass in the chapel of the Hadassah hospital in Jerusalem aroused everyone’s interest. Simon Studios in Reims, France fabricated these in 1962; the panels were displayed in New York city before they were installed. Their theme is the Twelve Tribes of Israel. Japan Katsutoshi Kuno, a member of the Stained Glass Association of America, reported that there were 1,000 stained glass artists in Japan in 1980.Unozawa is the father of Japanese stained glass. He studied in Germany and, in 1899, started a small studio in Japan. Matsumoto joined him in 1930. Sanchi Ogawa, (1867-1928), studied art in Tokyo and at the Art Institute of Chicago. Between 1904 and 1911 he worked in several U. S. stained glass studios. He returned to Japan in 1911 and founded his own active studio, which continued until his death in 1930. The craft became immensely popular after World War II. A beautiful Japanese stained glass magazine is published, unfortunately, however, not in English. The Japanese also have imported stained glass: Gabriel Loire has a tower of faceted glass at Hakone Open Air Museum; facade windows in Saint Anselm’s Roman Catholic Church in Tokyo are by Willet Studios; the stained glass in the Kyoto Cathedral is by Hans Stocker and Schaffrath’s window wall seen in the railroad station in Omiya. The History of Dalle de Verre The most successful and most widely accepted new technique in the world of stained glass today is dalle de verre, better known as faceted glass, which is set into epoxy or other material. Its process of production results in a mosaic-like approach of pure color effects that can be utilized in window openings or entire walls. As John Gilbert Lloyd notes: “It returns to the primary function of stained glass to transform a wall from a solid unyielding object to a cascading, fluid mural of shimmering beauty. While the medieval craftsman, joining small pieces of glass with lead to make intricate designs, achieved the same effect for Gothic cathedrals, the earlier Byzantines transferred their mosaic patterns into colorful window designs. Present day development of the technique stems directly from this beginning. “Thick colored glass was first used in a decorative way by Byzantine artists, instead of embedding the glass in stone, pierced the walls clear through and set it in as window lights. Arabic type examples can be found in Spain, apparently finding their way from North Africa with the Moslem Invasion. Although the actual glass is no longer in place, the feathery stonework grills that remain definitely indicate they must have been filled with colored glass. “Both Persians and Saracens in the Eastern Mediterranean area, where the glass industry was born, set crude glass into wood, stucco and stone frames. With these examples the Gothic tribes moving west used similar applications in stone mullions in France during the fifth and sixth centuries. Viollet-le-Duc says in Vitrail, “In the East, things change but little and window screens of stucco and marble enclosing pieces of vari-colored glass which we find in monuments of the XIII or XIV centuries in Asia and even Egypt, must be the expression of a very ancient tradition whose cradle seems to have been Persia.” (Stained Glass in America, pp 87-88) The Islamic law of prohibiting the use of human likenesses being depicted within the mosque, and simultaneously, the Christian practice of encouraging the use of figure likenesses of Christ — the Apostles, angels and saints — in all the decorative media of the church may have implemented the change to the thinner leaded glass medium. The Middle Eastern antecedents of dalle de verre seem to have vanished for several hundreds of years, until the 1920s, when French glass artists, experimenting with various new architectural directions, revitalized the ancient techniques. Early pioneers in the modern development of dalle de verre include Auguste Labouret and his collaborator Pierre Chaudiere. A prolific artist, Labouret studied at L’Ecole de Beaux Arts under J. P. Laurens and created many windows for cathedrals, railroad terminals, department stores hotels and ships’ dining rooms. Labouret was born in St. Quentin, France and developed the dalle de verre technique in the early 30s while working on glass in historic monuments. The artist sought a combination of modern strength and durability with a depth of color found in old glass. The thickness, broken surface and cut edge gives dalle de verre its characteristically rich translucence. The negative matrix area that frames each pane of glass is visually much heavier than the lead in ordinary windows. This characteristic, as with the earlier Islamic pierced windows, enriches the color by creating a great contrasting brilliance. This juxtaposition of brilliant color and dark surrounds can be painstakingly achieved in flat leaded glass by elaborately painting or by a combination of etching and painting of flashed glass. Dalle de verre lends itself best to direct and vigorous design. It is a broad medium that, generally, does not encourage copious detail. In the St. Christopher window that Labouret exhibited in the Pavilion du Vitrail in the Paris Exhibition of 1937, he demonstrated that it was not incompatible with figure work, delicate detail and even lettering. A variety of forms could be seen at this 1937 Paris Exposition with the Egyptian Pavilion showing a typical Arabic style of glass pierced plaster encased windows in traditional patterns. This was supposed to be the real origin of faceted glass. Variously called beton glass (beton glas), concrete glass or mosaic glass, the renewal started and by 1939 had crossed the Atlantic when a beton glass window was installed in the Chapel at the Shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre, Quebec, Canada. This was designed and fabricated by Auguste Labouret and is believed to be the first such panel in North America. In the same year, the French pavilion at the New York World’s Fair featured the same “Magi” panel that had been completed in 1936. “One of the Magi” is one of Labouret”s later works (1936), showing a good example of size and contrast of the glass. Note particularly the individual blades of glass set together in undulating rows. This cutting effect could only be achieved by using a hammer. Notice the ornamenting on the garment itself, the flowers, sky and stars, and the glass rods used. Contrasting in size are the larger pieces in the garment and jewel box (note the treatment on the edging of the jewel box). The flesh seems to have been traced and a matted texture effects the shading somewhat differently from the effect in St. Hubert”s work. The English precis for the French article describing the window, “One Of The Magi”, is “This stained glass window, exhibited in L’Illustration, illustrates a revolution which has taken place in the art of fashioning stained glass. It is the work of Labouret, who has evolved a daring new technique in the manipulation of translucent materials. His windows, indeed, carry us far from the traditional method of setting flat pieces of glass in leads in the manner that has been followed for centuries. By the use of thick slabs of glass which he sculptures, M. Labouret obtains a multiplicity of facets about which the lights play with a colour and an intensity which suggest the fire of precious stones. It is impossible to deny the remarkable effects he achieves by means of this new method, and it is easy to imagine the wealth of decoration, which it may, in the future, confer on our churches and cathedrals. The several slabs of glass, it may, perhaps, be added, are held together with cement.” [Labouret’s earliest work appeared in print in 1930 illustrating the steps of execution of the center section of the St. Hubert window. The complete window appeared in the Christmas, 1936 issue of L’Illustration.] (Stained Glass in America, p. 88) Also, in the 1937 Egyptian Catalogue from the Paris Exhibition, there is a window, “L’apprenti Sorcier” (Sorcerer’s Apprentice) which stands the test of time very well. Figure 10.4. This is by Jean Gaudin and contains 16 panels with vignettes of the story running bottom to top. While there are indications of pate de verre influences, it is a stunning window by any standard. (Pate de verre is a cast sculptured window; all the surface details are sculpted in a mold then the hot glass is poured into it. All the cast pieces are then assembled using cement as a matrix. It is possible that dalle de verre and pate de verre developed simultaneously as they have similar surface treatments.) It was not until the end of World War II that faceted glass use became more accepted, and even then, it was an evolutionary process. The pent-up demands for new buildings in the United States and Europe after the war proved a fertile ground for the material, which was relatively easy to fabricate, comparatively inexpensive yet produced windows of brilliant color. But, as Lloyd states, “Not until the completion of Sacred Heart Chapel in Audincourt, France (1951_1955) did the full appreciation of the form strike home. This large installation has been billed as the finest in France with the windows completely dominating the atmosphere. It is a concert in color, rhythm and visual harmony.” (Stained Glass in America, p. 89) By 1950, additional windows had been fabricated and installed by Labouret for the St. Anne de Beaupre in Quebec, Canada. The complete job called for over 200 windows of which he had completed and installed 30. The work, St. Luke, from the circle window from the Basilica of St. Anne de Beaupre, Quebec, Canada, shows advancement of the dalle de verre concept. The cutting is sharper, giving a crisper look to the window; there is ample use of negative space. The stars in the background seem to have become Labouret’s trademark. The small amount of trace-like material used to delineate the nose, mouth, and ear of St. Luke, as represented by a winged ox, are surface treatments which are no longer used in this medium. As news of these windows spread, it wasn’t very long before Henry Lee Willet of Philadelphia, who with several contemporaries, visited St. Anne to view them first hand. Willet remarked: “I was fascinated by the windows being installed; Labouret has developed an entirely new technique. He uses pieces of glass four to six inches thick which are held together by cement instead of lead. I thought the windows were the work of a young artist and commented to a priest at the shrine that it took youth to think of a new approach. When the priest told me that Labouret was 78 years old I realized the windows were even more amazing. Here is a man developing new techniques at an age when most men have retired.” Willet was impressed both by the man and the work, so he immediately contacted Labouret and arranged for an exhibition of his work at the Philadelphia Art Alliance for the fall of 1950, which was reported in the December, 1950 Alliance Bulletin. The exhibition included colored renderings, full size cartoons and finished pieces of dalle de verre. It expressed first-hand the media and all its potential to the American stained glass profession. Lloyd points out that, “American studios cautiously entered the field with a few minor commissions forthcoming. Then came the revolutionary First Presbyterian Church, Stamford, Connecticut. Constructed in a form that resembled a gigantic fish, (although the architect claims this was not done consciously but rather for acoustical effects), it is said to be one of the most powerful modern churches in the world. Great walls of faceted glass designed and executed by Gabriel Loire of France literally saturated the interior with overpowering color. Controversy raged, as might be expected, but it led the way to new concepts and thinking in church design,” The First Presbyterian Church, Stamford, CT provided the springboard for American studios to abandon traditional taboos and energetically make up for lost time. The first American studio to design, fabricate, and install dalle de verre was that of Harold W. Cummings of San Francisco, California. The year was 1954 and the location was Belvedere, California for the St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church. The media described as Vitrolith by Mr. Cummings was cast in concrete. The installation consisted of 12 nave windows approximately 17 by 144 inches in a vertical design with 72 smaller rectangular openings scattered in a starry-like clerestory. Roger Darricarrere, a former pupil of Labouret joined Cummings on this project as a specialist familiar with the process. The design throughout is of an abstract nature consisting of soft tints of color accented by powerful bands of rich color. The glass was hammercut as practiced by Labouret with the design boldly approached. Among early prominent dalle de verre projects is architect Edo Belli”s Moreau Seminary Chapel and Library designed by Father Anthony Lauck of the Notre Dame University Art Department and fabricated by Conrad Schmitt Studios. The monumental window walls admit a virtual lacework of colored light. The deeply recessed glass set in cement resembles a sculptured bas-relief of sparkling jewels. Father Lauck describes the dalle de verre concept by saying: “Some materials have a more marked character about them than others. Among these is dalle de verre. Not only is it deeply translucent, but it transmits light in clear brilliant colors. The thickness gives more depth and intensity to its color. The unusual means of shaping it by chiseling adds to its character. Hammer cutting fractures the glass in uneven sizes with notched and somewhat jagged edges. Faceting the edges breaks up the surfaces with shell-like ripples and facets, which brings out forcefully the crystalline angular structure of the glass. Each broken facet transmits its own hue, catches a different angle of the sun’s rays or the sky’s brightness and brings a varied pattern of sparkling light into the window. It is precisely this unique and individual charm of slab glass that appeals to artists, connoisseurs and patrons alike — and many priests and religions may be ranked among these.” The material used to glaze early dalle de verre was a portland type cement. In order to use this material properly, it was necessary to pour to a thickness of one to two inches on moderate sized panels and to a thicker size on large panels. The pieces of glass used to make a panel ranged from two to six inches in thickness; it called for a thick pour of cement to produce a panel properly. In addition, the weight per panel was considerable. Cement also requires that a wire armature be incorporated into the panel for reinforcement against breaking while the thickness of the pour required that the cement be adequately cured before moving. Curing panels (the process of letting the cement settle and harden properly), required additional wetting of the panels lest the cement dry out too quickly and crack. Finally, considerable clean up was involved once the cement was dry. Moving a 500-pound panel up six frames of scaffolding for installation required a hearty crew of men and a crane. Proper placement and adhesion was needed to allow the panel to expand and contract within the installation frame to prevent breaking. A proper sash was also essential to receive the panel and the thickness and weight of the panel necessitated that it be a substantial one. It became apparent that portland cement did not have adequate adhesion to the glass and it was not uncommon for the cement and the glass to separate. Water could seep through and around the panel. When the cement was cast several times thicker than the glass, various internal stresses could cause the glass to suffer fractures. There were problems, shortcomings and limitations in using cement. Since it had been used from the beginning, many windows were cast from it, but now some began to seek a better matrix. The search for a better matrix took some interesting turns. Some studios experimented with additives to various types of portland cement. About then, Sauereisen Acid resistant cement #54 surfaced. Apparently this material was formulated as a coating for surfaces that were exposed to various types of acids. Its use as a dalle de verre matrix was interesting. The cost was relatively low and it was a lot easier to use than the regular portland cement. It cured in 24 hours and was lighter than regular cement. However, it did not have much strength and required a wire armature and larger panels. The recommended thickness of a pour on a moderate sized panel was one inch. It was only available in white and its use with dalle de verre was limited. Then, Robert R. Benes of St. Louis, Missouri, had a better idea. Epoxy resin was initially formulated to serve as a lining for the oil pipeline divisions of Mobil Oil Company. By coating the inside surface of the pipe with epoxy, any fuels passing through the line received less friction and incurred less heat buildup. This required less force from a pump to move the material. Epoxy was being tried experimentally on many applications. Bob Benes, working with the Jacoby and Frei Studios in St. Louis, formulated a special blend of the material for trial in replacing cement in dalle de verre windows. Several panels were poured of various sizes and thicknesses as directed by Benes. These were subjected to tests for tensile strength, expansion, contraction, warpage, longevity and the like. The subsequent evaluations showed that epoxy was by far superior in all ways to cement. It required less time for preparation, mixing, pouring and cleanup. It required no type of armature. It had a similar rate of expansion and contraction as the glass. When poured to a three-quarter inch thickness, a panel of 12 square feet could be handled by two men with little fear of breaking. It could be seeded with all kinds of aggregate for surface treatment; it cured for handling in twenty-four hours and cured completely in five days. It came in many colors. It was a very durable, strong and waterproof product, with great adhesion to glass. Epoxy was magic stuff and though the cost per gallon was relatively high, it was just what the craft had been looking for. Epoxy and dalle de verre were joined from that day on. Benes applied for a patent and began formulating and selling this material to American studios. He traveled extensively to demonstrate the proper methods of mixing and using the material. Special formulations were made for special situations and special colors were mixed. If a studio had a problem using cement or another’s formulation, Benes always complied when called on for help. Robert Benes traveled abroad and pioneered the use of dalle de verre set in epoxy to the masters of Europe who had always used cement. There were other formulators who soon began offering their product in competition. Some were terrible, some mediocre, but few were as good as Bob Benes’ Benesco. American Stained Glass After World War II The depression of the 1930s and 1940s diminished the amount of building and new stained glass in the United States. Because of the shortage of craftspeople and supplies, little activity took place during World War II. These two relatively unproductive periods closely followed each other and resulted in a renewed demand for stained glass when the war was over. Also contributing to this new demand was an influx of books and magazines into the country showing the contemporary European churches. Architects organized tours abroad to visit the European churches. More Americans than ever before were traveling and taking slides to show the folks back home. It was not difficult to convince Americans that European styles were more up-to-date. Architects offered clients new designs with stained glass. “Liturgical Renewal” churches adopted a floor plan supposedly derived from the house-church of the early Christians. No rood screen blocked the congregation’s view of the chancel. The pulpit, the font and the communion table were equally prominent and accessible. Sometimes the pulpit and lectern were combined into an “ambo.” Churches-in-the-round became popular. Considering stained glass as the handmaid of architecture was bound to result in new forms and techniques. Also, the influential cathedrals with traditional architecture such as Grace Cathedral in San Francisco and the Washington National Cathedral began requesting contemporary designs. Stained glass, like the other arts, was welcomed in the church in new forms. There was an increase of Christian symbols as subjects. These recalled early Christians hiding in the catacombs. Congregations were supposed to be informed enough to interpret these symbols. It was a short step to non-representational designs. In 1953, the Stained Glass Association of America sponsored the “New Work in Stained Glass” show. Prominent American artists were invited to submit designs that were to be executed by member studios. The success of this project was due to Harold Rambusch who was, first of all, close to the art scene in New York but also believed in the venture more than many of the more conservative members. These controversial panels were shown in several cities and got a fair amount of publicity. American studios began to make windows in new techniques: etched, sandblasted, laminated, gemmaux, fused, plastic, gold leaf overlay, beveled and the immediately popular dalle de verre. Dalle de verre windows were first seen on this continent in 1939. They were made in France and installed in Sainte Anne de Beaupre in Canada. Soon after the war, the First Presbyterian Church in Stamford, Connecticut, a church in the shape of a fish, with window walls by Gabriel Loire, was making headlines. American studios began to experiment and were soon in production with faceted glass. The social changes of the 1960s slowed the church building boom. Christian money was slated for social action rather than new church buildings or for maintaining the traditional ones. The statement “God is dead” was heard. It was time for stained glass to find a home in the secular world again. After the pessimistic “beatniks” came the optimistic “hippies” spreading eastward from San Francisco where they were rehabbing the old houses, painting them bright colors and, of course, repairing the stained glass. Before this time, the only way to learn to make stained glass was to serve a conventional apprenticeship with an established studio. There were few of these positions available and they were only open for young people who wanted to make stained glass a career within the establishment. To supply the new demand, people who had recently mastered the technique began to teach others and stained glass became a popular hobby. Beginners made “suncatchers” from pattern books. Some progressed to designing and making simple windows and door lights. There was an increase in literature about stained glass, especially glass appreciation. Interest also developed in repair and restoration. This interest developed not just for medieval windows but also for stained glass from the turn of the century. As the international style of architecture faded into post-modernism, stained glass again became popular, not only in churches, but also in private homes and public buildings. A revival of Tiffany’s glass waited until the population as a whole became interested in nostalgia. This appreciation for the past manifested itself in neo-art nouveau. Art deco, while it experienced a flurry, never came back with such an impact, despite the fact that straight lead lines are easier to make than sinuous lines. Leaded skylights in hotels and railroad stations that had been covered with paint were cleaned and repaired. Larger repairs and installations were still handled by traditional studios that had better resources and engineering skills. They were increasingly pushed into the new styles and techniques by the competition from smaller studios that had evolved from the hobbyists in stained glass art and craft. Starting in the 1960s the impetus towards new aspects of stained glass was going on over the whole country, if not the world. Students in colleges and art schools were experimenting with blowing glass in the wake of Dominic Labino and Harvey Littleton, who had developed a new small furnace enabling hot glass to become a medium for individual craftspeople. Interest also awakened in fusing and laminating and that spilled over into stained glass. As colleges and art schools put “hot glass” into their curricula, they also began to teach “flat glass.” Sometimes the two disciplines combined. At this point we saw the entrance of “autonomous panels”. Autonomous panels are moderate sized panels designed and made as a statement by a single artist, meant to be treated as fine art and not decorative art, and with no relation to any architectural setting. Principal sources of inspiration are turn of the century stained glass and the work of German artists who traveled to the United States, Canada, Australia and even Japan to teach design workshops. Stained glass became collectible again. It was also recognized as a prestigious field of scholarship. It had always had its few experts, but a new generation of art history students began to choose it as a major field for research. An organization called the Corpus Vitrearum Medievii was founded in 1952 under the auspices of the Comite International de l’Histoire de l’Art with the plan of researching, documenting and publishing all existing stained glass up through the renaissance — a gigantic undertaking. With added support from UNESCO and the Union Academique Internationale, beautifully illustrated volumes on single buildings or geographical areas are appearing. This study makes it easier to learn about medieval windows which have been dispersed to different parts of the world than it is to learn about stained glass much closer to our own time and place. An equally ambitious project is the Census of Stained Glass in America, an attempt to chart every interesting installation in the United States and keep the resulting data in a computer bank. These two efforts are evidence that stained glass is a serious field of study. It is ironic that interest in medieval windows should build at the height of new styles rather than during the neo-Gothic phase. Posted by Richard at 2:52 pm	i don't know

Sneinton : definition of Sneinton and synonyms of Sneinton (English) 10 External links Description Sneinton Dale is the main connecting road through the district. The area is famous for the windmill which stands on Sneinton Hill, and harbours Green's Windmill and the Science Centre. [1] Near the windmill there used to stand the now-demolished Nottinghamshire County Lunatic Asylum , later a boarding school named King Edwards, and now the location of King Edward Park. King Edwards boarding school was run by famous head master Alfred Tanner and his wife Mary. Many of Sneinton's children were killed in industrial accidents at King Edwards, which stood for 117 years. King Edwards School also employed Sneinton resident Arnold Booth, the infamous murderer who was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1977 for the murder of Renee Howard, and rumoured to have murdered Lucy Tinslop, the victim of the infamous 'Birthday girl' murder on the Bath Street rest garden, which took place in 1969. History The original district of Sneinton was built around the brickworks, founded in the nineteenth century, at the eastern end of Sneinton Dale and most of the existing terraced houses date from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The brickworks themselves, however, have long since been demolished to make way for modern housing. Green's Windmill in Sneinton In 1801 the population of Sneinton stood at just 588. Sneinton was then no more than a village about a mile outside of Nottingham town centre, standing on a high ridge overlooking the valley of the River Trent . Within just 50 years, however, the population had grown to 8,440 (1851 estimate). With the population continuing to rise, Sneinton was officially incorporated into the borough of Nottingham in 1877. By 1901, the population stood at 23,093. During World War II , Sneinton was targeted in air raids. The industrial units on Meadow Lane suffered direct hits. There is a street named 'Notintone' street, which may be the origin of the name Sneinton. Nottingham first being called SnottingHAM, and the area away from the city inhabited by the local Saxons being called SnottingTON by the Normans. From the mid-20th Century onwards Sneinton absorbed a large influx of immigrants , mainly from the West Indies , India and Pakistan , Bangladesh , Poland and Africa . Sneinton is home to a large Pakistani population, Sneinton Dale (road) and surrounding streets are home to many Pakistanis. The area still retains its multi-cultural flavour, and has a diverse range of restaurants and stores. St. Stephen's Church, Sneinton the medieval parish church of Sneinton Sneinton has recently enjoyed a renaissance, with many of the old Victorian properties being bought and developed by young professionals. Crime remains a problem in the area with an amount of drug-related crime , car and home burglary. Although a few in Nottingham consider Sneinton to be one of the more dangerous and crime-ridden areas in Nottingham, house prices in the area have enjoyed a healthy rise in recent years. Housing is still slightly cheaper in Sneinton than in Nottingham city centre and some other suburbs of the city, although this might change when the planned urban renewal projects around Sneinton start. [2] [3] [4] [5] Sneinton was the birthplace of the mathematician (And Miller) George Green (born 1793) who lived in a house close to one of the village windmills ; One of which he owned and worked in. also of William Booth , founder of The Salvation Army , and who was born in 1829 in the house which is now The William Booth Birthplace Museum, located on 12 Notintone Place. Another famous son of Sneinton was the bare knuckle boxing champion, Bendigo . A public house in the area still proudly bears a statue of the figure above its door, though is now named "The Hermitage". A more recent Sneinton celebrity is the film director Shane Meadows who lived in Sneinton for many years and filmed some of his early works partly in Sneinton, including Small Town. Sneinton Market Sneinton Market is an open air market in the British tradition; [6] it is situated at the western end of Sneinton, where the district meets the city proper and next to the Nottingham Arena . There are plans to regenerate the market, as a part of the Eastside regeneration project. [7] Already,[ when? ] new businesses have opened up around the market. A European style food market in the area closed in September 2009. Colwick Woods Colwick Woods to the East of Sneinton, is a 50 hectare grassland and ancient woodland site that is a Local Nature Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest . The woodland contains ancient woodland indicator species such as dogs mercury and ramsons . The site is rich in mammal species including both species of pipistrelle and noctule bat . There are many well-maintained a nd waymarked public rights of way spanning the site, with numerous desire paths running through the woods. The woods and meadows are very popular with local people for outdoor activities including walking, mountain biking, and other activities and are a fine example of woodland so close to a city centre. Wheelchair access is only from Greenwood Road to the open grassland at the north end as steep hills are a characteristic feature of most of the site. Greenwood Dale High School shares a boundary with the reserve and educational events have been held in partnership with the school including photographic scavenger hunts and sapling collection. Open days are held in the summer allowing the public to be actively involved with the reserve. Colwick Woods has an active Friends Group who meet regularly to discuss the condition of the site and carry out practical nature conservation in the woods. Sneinton Festival Sneinton Festival is an event taking place every year in the end of July. The first festival was organised in 1995, and each festival is organised around three individual elements: workshops, a festival week and a carnival day. Workshops are scheduled to take place several weeks before the actual event together with young people, most often in local schools and youth groups. The workshops are based around the years theme, creating artwork, decorations and costumes for the Carnival Parade as well as dance and performance workshops. Apart from the paints, adhesives and tools the artwork is made from scrap material - either from the scrapstores , members donations, or found items. The Festival Group also organises school competitions to produce the years festival logos, publicity, themed stories or other similar material used for, or displayed during, the Festival week. Every year the Festival is organised around a different theme, which is used when producing artwork, costumes, performances and also surrounds many of the events themselves. Within these themes the group also tries to focus on community issues such as recycling, differing cultures, use and access to the media, or science and technology. 1995 People and Places (World culture) 1996 Old and New (Recycling) 1997 Sneinton-on-Sea (Inner city Seaside) 1998 Planet Sneinton (Sci-Fi & Technology) 1999 One upon a time in Sneinton (World folklore). 2000 Sneinton Millennium (1000 years of people in Sneinton) 2001 Technicolor Sneinton (Colour, patterns and psychedelia) 2002 Magic Sneinton (Magic, conjuring and mystical stories) 2003 Channel Sneinton (TV, Video, film and media) 2004 Sneintopoly (Board games and play from around the world). 2005 (no particular theme) 2007 Earth, Wind, Fire, Water (Green Energy) 2009 'Sneinton's Got Talent' based on well known reality TV show, Britain's Got Talent . The Festival Week starts on the Saturday prior to the Carnival Day with seven days of events held in and around the area. They included exhibitions, displays, open days, performance, entertainers, socials, food tastings and multi-cultural events run and developed by local groups and organisations under the co-ordination of the festival committee. The events are free and open to everyone and endeavour to reflect the diversity of the local community and represent cultures, age and gender. The Carnival Parade on the Carnival Day includes a variety of floats, fancy dress, costumes, event performers, samba bands, jazz bands, youth bands, dancers, jugglers and clowns. The festival then continues in the Hermitage Square when the carnival parade arrives, and features an afternoon of free and diverse entertainment, including music performers, dance groups, circus performers, fire eaters, jugglers, magicians, puppet shows, poetry readings, story tellers, as well as karate, gymnastic, aerobics and sport displays. There are also lots of refreshment available including Asian, Bosnian, West African, French, Italian and Afro Caribbean food, French Crépes and a traditional cake stall. The festival is organised by the independent festival committee, a volunteer group made up of local residents, representatives of local organisations, community groups, schools, church, youth and play groups, artists, musicians, performers and local project workers. Since 2002 the group has been supported and co-ordinated by the two workers of the Sneinton Community Project. Sneinton Dragon Sneinton Dragon A statue of a dragon by sculptor Robert Stubley is located by the roadside on Sneinton Hermitage. It was commissioned by Nottingham City Council and was unveiled on November 21, 2006. The dragon stands 7 feet tall, has a wingspan of 15 feet and took 3 months to finish. It is made out of stainless steel. During the Christmas period, somebody puts a Santa hat on the dragon. Unfortunately, the hat always disappears a few days later.	i don't know
In which constellation is the star Betelgeuse?	Betelgeuse - Alpha Orionis \| Constellation Guide Constellation Guide Constellations: A Guide to the Night Sky Betelgeuse by admin Betelgeuse, Alpha Orionis, is the second brightest star in Orion constellation and the ninth brightest star in the sky. It is a supergiant star, distinctly red in colour, located at an approximate distance of 643 light years from Earth. It is an evolved star, one expected to explode as a supernova in a relatively near future. Betelgeuse is a large, bright, massive star easily found in the sky in the winter months because it is part of a familiar pattern formed by the celestial Hunter. The red supergiant marks one of Orion ‘s shoulders, while the hot, bright giant Bellatrix, Gamma Orionis, marks the other. Betelgeuse is a variable star and, as its brightness changes, the star has been known to outshine the constellation’s brightest star, the blue supergiant Rigel, Beta Orionis. Alpha Orionis’ traditional name, Betelgeuse, originated in the Arabic phrase Yad al-Jauzā’, meaning “the shoulder of the central one” or “the hand of Orion,” referring to the star’s position in the constellation. The phrase al-Jauzā’ is the traditional Arabic name for Orion constellation . It can be loosely translated as “the central one,” referring to a mysterious woman. The modern Arabic name for the constellation is al-Jabbār, meaning “the giant.” With the phrase Yad al-Jauzā’, Medieval translators misread the Arabic character for Y as B, which resulted in a mistranslation into “armpit of the giant.” The name Betelgeuse can be pronounced /ˈbiːtəldʒuːs/, /ˈbiːtəldʒuːz/, or /ˈbɛtəldʒuːz/. The original pronunciation is uncertain. Position of Betelgeuse in the constellation of Orion. Image: Akira Fujii Betelgeuse and Bellatrix mark the two shoulders of Orion, the Hunter . Betelgeuse, marking the right shoulder, lies in the upper left corner of the constellation from our point view. It is one of the largest and most luminous stars known. Placed at the centre of our solar system, Alpha Orionis would extend beyond the asteroid belt, all the way to the orbit of Jupiter and possibly beyond. Betelgeuse belongs to the spectral class M2Iab. The M refers to the star’s colour, red, and the ‘Iab’ suffix indicates that the star is an intermediate luminosity supergiant. It has an absolute magnitude of roughly -6.02. The star’s mass is uncertain, but estimates range from 7.7 to 20 times that of the Sun. As a result of its high mass, Betelgeuse has evolved quickly and, even though it is less than than 10 million years old, it is nearing the end of its life cycle. The star is believed to have an average luminosity about 120,000 times that of the Sun. Betelgeuse is classified as a semi-regular variable star. Its apparent magnitude varies from 0.2 to 1.2 over a period of about 400 days, which is the widest magnitude range for a first magnitude star. Because it varies in magnitude, Betelgeuse occasionally surpasses Procyon in Canis Minor in brightness and becomes the seventh brightest star in the sky. When at its brightest, Betelgeuse outshines Rigel, the brightest star in Orion , and becomes the sixth brightest star in the sky. At its faintest, it drops below Deneb , the brightest star in Cygnus , and shares the position of the 20th brightest star with Mimosa, Beta Crucis, located in Crux constellation and one of the stars that form the Southern Cross . Betelgeuse is a pulsating red supergiant showing low-amplitude variations and periods of stable brightness. The star’s pulsations result in its absolute magnitude varying from -5.27 to -6.27. As its outer layers expand and contract, the surface increases and decreases, and the temperatures rises and falls. Betelgeuse pulsates because it has an unstable stellar atmosphere. When it contracts, it absorbs more of the energy that passes through it. As a result, its atmosphere heats up and expands. When the star expands, the atmosphere becomes less dense and cools down, which leads to another period of contraction. This collage shows the Orion constellation in the sky (Betelgeuse is identified by the marker), a zoom towards Betelgeuse, and the sharpest ever image of this supergiant star, which was obtained with NACO on ESO’s Very Large Telescope. Image: ESO, P.Kervella, Digitized Sky Survey 2 and A. Fujii There are several cycles to the star’s pulsations, with short-term variations of roughly 150 to 300 days, and longer, cyclic variations over a period of about 5.7 years. As a result of the star’s variability, limb darkening, angular diameter that tends to vary with wavelength, and the star’s tendency to occasionally change shape, many of Betelgeuse’s properties are still uncertain. Because the star is rapidly losing mass, its surface is obscured by a large envelope of ejected material, approximately 250 times larger than the star itself, which makes measurements even more difficult. In 1985, two close companions were discovered in orbit around Betelgeuse, but have not been confirmed by research in the years since. Betelgeuse is easy to find in the sky because it is part of a prominent winter constellation, Orion the Hunter . From mid-September to mid-March, the star is visible from almost any location on the globe, with the exception of those south of 82°S. For observers in the northern hemisphere, Betelgeuse rises in the east just after sunset in January. In March, it is due south early in the evening. By May, the star only briefly shows up on the western horizon after sunset. In the early summer, it travels behind the Sun and can’t be seen. A few months later, it can be seen appearing on the eastern horizon just before dawn. In June and July, Betelgeuse can’t be seen at night at all, only using a telescope in daylight. Supernova Betelgeuse has reached a late stage of evolution and is expected to end its life in a supernova explosion at some point within the next million years. The red supergiant will most likely explode as a Type II supernova. The supernova may brighten to a visual magnitude of -12 over a couple of weeks, which would make it outshine the Moon, cast shadows in the night, and be visible in daylight. The supernova would stay at that intensity for two to three months before dimming. The last bright supernova, SN 1987A, was visible to the naked eye even though the progenitor star wasn’t even in our galaxy, but in the nearby Large Magellanic Cloud in Dorado constellation , roughly 168,000 light years away from the solar system. While Betelgeuse is far too distant to do any damage to Earth, when it explodes, it will certainly give us a very bright spectacle in the sky. Earth will most likely not be affected by the explosion because Betelgeuse’s rotational axis is not pointed toward our planet and the gamma ray burst sent by the supernova will most likely not cause any damage to our ecosystems. Neutrinos and other forms of radiation will not reach us until 600 years after the explosion and will not affect terrestrial life. Supernovae generally must be within 25 light years to cause any significant damage to Earth. At 643 light years, Betelgeuse is more than 25 times that distance. Betelgeuse has evolved off the main sequence and has expanded and cooled to become a red supergiant. Even though it is a relatively young star, it has likely used up the hydrogen at its core, which is causing the star to contract, its temperature to rise, and its density to increase. Consequently, Betelgeuse has started fusing helium into carbon and oxygen. At some point, the star will collapse and explode. Most likely, it will leave behind a neutron star roughly 20 kilometres in diameter. Mass is a key factor when predicting how a star will end its life. The exact mass of Betelgeuse is uncertain, but most astronomers who have investigated the star agree that it has more than 10 solar masses. If its mass and rotation speed are sufficient, Alpha Orionis may even evolve into a yellow hypergiant or a luminous blue variable before the supernova event. FACTS Betelgeuse is part of two familiar winter asterisms. It marks the upper right vertex of the Winter Triangle . The stars of the Winter Triangle and the Winter Hexagon The other two stars that form the Winter Triangle are Procyon in Canis Minor and Sirius in Canis Major . Betelgeuse also lies at the centre of the Winter Hexagon , formed by Sirius , Procyon, Pollux in Gemini , Capella in Auriga , Aldebaran in Taurus , and Rigel in Orion constellation . In 2013, scientists said that Betelgeuse would likely crash into a “cosmic wall” of interstellar dust in several thousand years. The star’s solar wind is expected to reach the wall in about 5,000 years and the star itself is expected to crash into the bar roughly 12,500 years after that. The bar is thought to be either a linear filament linked to the Milky Way’s magnetic field or the edge of an interstellar cloud lit by Betelgeuse. Alpha Orionis originated in the Orion OB1 Association, a group of stars whose members include the stars of Orion’s Belt , which share the same proper motion and velocity through space. The red supergiant is believed to have changed its course and motion through space at some point because its projected pathway does not seem to intersect with any star forming region. The most likely scenario is that it is a runaway member of the Orion OB1 Association, formed some 10-12 million years ago in a molecular cloud in Orion . This picture of the dramatic nebula around the bright red supergiant star Betelgeuse was created from images taken with the VISIR infrared camera on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT). This structure, resembling flames emanating from the star, forms because the behemoth is shedding its material into space. The earlier NACO observations of the plumes are reproduced in the central disc. The small red circle in the middle has a diameter about four and half times that of the Earth’s orbit and represents the location of Betelgeuse’s visible surface. The black disc corresponds to a very bright part of the image that was masked to allow the fainter nebula to be seen. Image: ESO, VLT, P. Kervella Betelgeuse moves through space at a speed of 30 km/s. As a result, its stellar wind has created a bow shock more than 4 light years wide. The wind is ejecting vast amounts of gas into space at a rate of 17 km/s, heating up the material around the star. Consequently, it is visible in infrared wavelengths. The bow shock was first imaged in 1997. Its cometary structure is believed to be at least one parsec wide if the star’s estimated distance of 643 light years from the solar system is accurate. The bow shock is estimated to be less than 30,000 years old. Alpha Orionis is the brightest near-infrared source in the sky. It has a J band magnitude of -2.99. Only 13 percent of the star’s energy is emitted in visible light. The star’s variability was first noted by John Herschel in 1836. He published his notes in Outlines of Astronomy. Over the next four years, Herschel noticed that Betelgeuse was showing considerable changes in magnitude. In October 1837, it outshone Rigel, the brightest star in Orion , and did it again in November 1839. The variations in brightness may have been the reason why Johann Bayer gave Betelgeuse the designation Alpha in his Uranometria, published in 1603, even though it is usually not as bright as Rigel, designated Beta Orionis. Betelgeuse was the first star other than the Sun to have its disk imaged in optical and infrared wavelengths, by John E. Baldwin and his colleagues at the Cavendish Astrophysics Group. Alpha Orionis is believed to have started its life as a hot, blue class O star some 10 million years ago. The star had an initial mass about 18-19 times that of the Sun. The spelling of the name Betelgeuse did not become universal until the early 20th century. Before that, the star’s name was spelled Betelgeux or Betelgeuze. Photo taken by Rogelio Bernal Andreo in October 2010 of the Orion constellation showing the surrounding nebulas of the Orion Molecular Cloud complex. Also captured is the red supergiant Betelgeuse (top left) and the famous belt of Orion composed of the OB stars Altitak, Alnilam and Mintaka. To the bottom right can be found the star Rigel. The red crescent shape is Barnard’s Loop. The photograph appeared as the Astronomy Picture of the Day on October 23, 2010. Image: Rogelio Bernal Andreo Betelgeuse has had many different names across the cultures, including the Sanskrit Bahu, reflecting the Hindu view of the Orion constellation as a running stag or antelope, the Persian Bašn (“the Arm”), and Coptic Klaria (“an Armlet”). The Chinese knew the star as Shēnxiùsì, the Fourth Star of the constellation of Three Stars, referring to the stars forming Orion ‘s girdle. The constellation was later expanded to include ten stars. In Japan, Alpha Orionis was known as Heike-boshi, referring to the Heike clan, which adopted the star and its red colour as its symbol. Tahitian observers considered Betelgeuse to be one of the pillars holding the sky. They knew the star as Anâ-varu. In Hawaii, the star was known as Kaulua-koko, which means “brilliant red star.” In cultures across the Americas, the star is often seen as a severed limb. The Taulipang of Brazil called the constellation Zililkawai, and it represented a hero whose leg was severed by his wife. The star’s blinking light represented the severing of the leg. The Lakota people saw it as a chief with a severed arm. In northern Australia, the Wardaman people called Betelgeuse Ya-jungin, meaning “Owl Eyes Flicking.” In South Africa, the star represented a lion stalking three zebras, marked by Alnilam, Alnitak, and Mintaka, the stars of Orion’s Belt . In Macedonian legend, Betelgeuse was associated with Orach, “the ploughman,” while the rest of Orion constellation represented a plough with oxen. Image of the supergiant star Betelgeuse obtained with the NACO adaptive optics instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope. The use of NACO combined with a so-called “lucky imaging” technique, allowed the astronomers to obtain the sharpest ever image of Betelgeuse, even with Earth’s turbulent, image-distorting atmosphere in the way. The resolution is as fine as 37 milliarcseconds, which is roughly the size of a tennis ball on the International Space Station (ISS), as seen from the ground. The image is based on data obtained in the near-infrared, through different filters. The field of view is about half an arcsecond wide, North is up, East is left. Image: ESO/P. Kervella Betelgeuse has also been mentioned in numerous films, television shows, novels, and other works of fiction. In Tim Burton’s 1988 feature Beetlejuice, an undead bio-exorcist played by Michael Keaton shares the star’s name. In The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Betelgeuse was the home system of Zaphod Beeblebrox, the Galactic President. In The Cthulhu Mythos, the star is the home of the Elder Gods. Betelgeuse has also been notably mentioned in Jean Louis De Esque’s poetic work Betelguese, a trip through hell (1908), Muhammad Barker’s Tékumel novels and games, Philip K. Dick’s short stories “Tony and the Beetles” (1953) and “Shell Game” (1954), Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.’s novel The Sirens of Titan (1959), Pierre Boulle’s novel Planet of the Apes (1963), Gérard Klein’s Le Gambit des Etoiles (1958), Frank Herbert’s Dune series (as Bela Tegeuse), Isaac Asimov’s The Robots of Dawn (1983), Robert J. Sawyer’s Calculating God (2000), and Jeffrey Carver’s From a Changeling Star (1989). Betelgeuse is also mentioned in the games BattleTech, Star Control II, Frontier: Elite II, and Frontier: First Encounters. Size The size of Betelgeuse is difficult to determine, but its diameter is believed to change from 550 to 920 times the Sun’s diameter. The star is large enough that it reveals a disk when seen in the best telescopes. This artist’s impression shows the supergiant star Betelgeuse as it was revealed thanks to different state-of-the-art techniques on ESO’s Very Large Telescope, which allowed two independent teams of astronomers to obtain the sharpest ever views of the supergiant star Betelgeuse. They show that the star has a vast plume of gas almost as large as our Solar System and a gigantic bubble boiling on its surface. These discoveries provide important clues to help explain how these mammoths shed material at such a tremendous rate. The scale in units of the radius of Betelgeuse as well as a comparison with the Solar System is also provided. Image: ESO/L. Calçada The star’s diameter was measured in 2000 using the Infrared Spatial Interferometer (ISI) and the calculations yielded a radius of 3.6 astronomical units. In June 2009, Charles Townes, Nobel Laureate and inventor of the laser, announced his discovery that Betelgeuse had shrunk by 15 percent since 1993, without losing brightness. The contraction was likely a result of shell activity in Betelgeuse’s extended atmosphere. Astronomers have pinpointed at least six shells around the star. Betelgeuse was observed ejecting a vast amount of gas in July 2009, with distances roughly equalling 30 astronomical units. Alpha Orionis was the second star after the Sun to have the angular size of its photosphere measured. It was measured on December 13, 1920 by Albert Michelson and Francis Pease at Mount Wilson Observatory. They measured the star’s angular diameter at 0.047”, which translated into a diameter of 2.58 astronomical units. However, these numbers are uncertain because of limb darkenining and measurement errors. Estimates over the years have ranged from 0.042 to 0.069 arcseconds and a projected radius of the stellar disk between 1.2 and 8.9 astronomical units. The star’s diameter is difficult to determine for several reasons. First, because Alpha Orionis is a pulsating variable, which means that its diameter changes over time. Second, because it is difficult to determine a definable ‘edge’ of the star because limb darkening causes its optical emissions to vary in colour. Third, because it is also hard to define the star’s photosphere because it is surrounded by a a thick gaseous envelope made up of material ejected by the star which absorbs and emits light. As a result, the measured diameter changes depending on the wavelength used to measure it. Comparison of size of Betelgeuse (largest dull-red sphere inside Jupiter’s orbit) and R Doradus (red sphere shown inside Earth’s orbit) together with the orbits of Mars, Venus and Mercury and the stars Rigel and Aldebaran from Image:1e10m comparison Rigel, Aldebaran, and smaller – antialiased no transparency.png, to scale. The faint yellow sphere centred on the Sun has a radius of one light-minute. The yellow ellipses represent the orbits of each planet. Image: Paul Stansifer and 84user at wikipedia.org Betelgeuse was once thought to have the largest angular diameter of any star. However, after a team of astronomers measured the diameter of R Doradus at 57.0 mas. in 1997, the star lost this distinction. It is now considered to be in third place even though R Doradus, a Mira variable located in Dorado constellation and much closer to Earth at less than 200 light years, has a diameter only about a third that of Alpha Orionis. Betelgeuse’s estimated radius is about 5.5 astronomical units, which makes the star around 1,180 times larger than the Sun. With the observed contraction, the star’s radius has shortened to 4.6 astronomical units. Distance Betelgeuse lies at a distance of 643 light years or 197 parsecs from Earth. Earlier estimates of the star’s distance were 430 light years (131 parsecs) in 1997, and 520 light years (152 parsecs) in 2007. The star’s exact distance is uncertain because direct parallax measurement results in a distance of about 495 light years, while the parallax using the natural radio emission yields about 640 light years. Sometimes the middle distance – 570 light years – is cited. In 2008, Graham Harper and colleagues used the Very Large Array (VLA) and came up with radio data that yielded a distance of 643 light years. Colour Alpha Orionis has a colour index (B–V) of 1.85, which makes it a very red star. This image is a colour composite made from exposures from the Digitized Sky Survey 2 (DSS 2). The field of view is approximately 2.0 x 1.5 degrees. Image: ESO/Digitized Sky Survey 2 The star’s photosphere has an extended atmosphere. As a result of being surrounded by a thick envelope of gas, the star’s extended atmosphere exhibits strong lines of emission rather than absorption. It has been known to move away and toward the star as a result of radial velocity fluctuations in the photosphere. The star’s red colour has been documented since antiquity. The Greek astronomer Ptolemy described it as ruddy (ὑπόκιρρος – hypókirros) in the 2nd century. Three centuries before Ptolemy’s observations, Chinese astronomers noted that the star had a yellow coloration. This indicates that Betelgeuse may have been a yellow supergiant just before the beginning of the common era. Temperature The temperature of the star’s surface is estimated to be between 3,140 and 3,641 K. The estimated temperature of the star’s atmosphere is around 3,450 K. The gas around the star gradually cools as it expands away from the star.

From which Disney animated picture does the song 'Circle Of Life' come?	Betelgeuse Betelgeuse Betelgeuse is the brightest star in Orion and marks the western shoulder of the constellation. Betelgeuse is one of the largest known stars and is probably at least the size of the orbits of Mars or Jupiter around the sun. That's a diameter about 700 times the size of the Sun or 600 million miles. For a star it has a rather low surface temperature (6000 F compared to the Sun's 10,000 F). The low temperature means that the star will appear orange-red in color. Betelgeuse emits almost 7,500 times as much energy as the Sun. The combination of size and temperature tells astronomers that the star is a kind of star called a red super giant. Red super giants are stars that are close to the end of their life. Probably within the next ten to hundred thousand years Betelgeuse might end its life in a supernova explosion. The name Betelgeuse comes from the Arabic and is basically a corruption of the phrase "Armpit of the Giant". The star's distance implies that it is not at the same distance as many of the other stars in Orion. Fact Table	i don't know

What is the theatre equivalent of the US film industry's 'Oscar'?	Film History of the 1920s Film History of the 1920s 1970s \| 1980s \| 1990s \| 2000s \| 2010s Foundations of the Prolific Film Industry: Films really blossomed in the 1920s, expanding upon the foundations of film from earlier years. Most US film production at the start of the decade occurred in or near Hollywood on the West Coast, although some films were still being made in New Jersey and in Astoria on Long Island (Paramount). By the mid-20s, movies were big business (with a capital investment totaling over $2 billion) with some theatres offering double features. By the end of the decade, there were 20 Hollywood studios, and the demand for films was greater than ever. Most people are unaware that the greatest output of feature films in the US occurred in the 1920s and 1930s (averaging about 800 film releases in a year) - nowadays, it is remarkable when production exceeds 500 films in a year. Throughout most of the decade, silent films were the predominant product of the film industry, having evolved from vaudevillian roots. But the films were becoming bigger (or longer), costlier, and more polished. They were being manufactured, assembly-line style, in Hollywood's 'entertainment factories,' in which production was broken down and organized into its various components (writing, costuming, makeup, directing, etc.). Even the earliest films were organized into genres or types, with instantly-recognizable storylines, settings, costumes, and characters. The major genre emphasis was on swashbucklers, historical extravaganzas, and melodramas, although all kinds of films were being produced throughout the decade. Films varied from sexy melodramas and biblical epics by Cecil B. DeMille, to westerns (such as Cruze's The Covered Wagon (1923)), horror films, gangster/crime films, war films, the first feature documentary or non-fictional narrative film (Robert Flaherty's Nanook of the North (1922)), romances, mysteries, and comedies (from the silent comic masters Chaplin, Keaton, and Lloyd). The Major Film Studios: The Big Five 1920-1930 was the decade between the end of the Great War and the Depression following the Stock Market Crash. Film theaters and studios were not initially affected in this decade by the Crash in late 1929. The basic patterns and foundations of the film industry (and its economic organization) were established in the 1920s. The studio system was essentially born with long-term contracts for stars, lavish production values, and increasingly rigid control of directors and stars by the studio's production chief and in-house publicity departments. After World War I and into the early 1920s, America was the leading producer of films in the world - using Thomas Ince's "factory system" of production, although the system did limit the creativity of many directors. Production was in the hands of the major studios (that really flourished after 1927 for almost 20 years), and the star system was burgeoning. Originally, in the earliest years of the motion picture industry, production, distribution, and exhibition were separately controlled. When the industry rapidly grew, these functions became integrated under one directorship to maximize profits, something called vertical integration. There were eight major (and minor) studios (see below) that dominated the industry. They were the ones that had most successfully consolidated and integrated all aspects of a film's development. By 1929, the film-making firms that were to rule and monopolize Hollywood for the next half-century were the giants or the majors, sometimes dubbed The Big Five. They produced more than 90 percent of the fiction films in America and distributed their films both nationally and internationally. Each studio somewhat differentiated its products from other studios. See History of Film Studio Logos . Warner Bros. Pictures was incorporated in 1923 by Polish brothers (Jack, Harry, Albert, and Sam). In 1925, Warner Brothers merged with First National, forming Warner Bros.-First National Pictures. The studio's first principal asset was Rin Tin Tin. It became prominent by 1927 due to its introduction of talkies ( The Jazz Singer (1927) ) and early 30s gangster films . It was known as the "Depression studio." In the 40s, it specialized in Bugs Bunny animations and other cartoons. 1923-1925 1929-1935 2. Adolph Zukor's Famous Players (1912) and Jesse Lasky's Feature Play - merged in 1916 to form Famous Players-Lasky Corporation. It spent $1 million on United Studios' property (on Marathon Street) in 1926. The Famous Players-Lasky Corporation became Paramount studios in 1927, and was officially named Paramount Pictures in 1935. Its greatest silent era stars were Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, and Rudolph Valentino; Golden Age stars included Mae West, W.C. Fields, Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, and director Cecil B. DeMille. 3. RKO (Radio-Keith-Orpheum) Pictures, evolved from the Mutual Film Corporation (1912), was established in 1928 as a subsidiary of RCA. It was formed by RCA, Keith-Orpheum Theaters, and the FBO Company (Film Booker's Organization) - which was owned by Joseph P. Kennedy (who had already purchased what remained of Mutual). This was the smallest studio of the majors. It kept financially afloat with top-grossing Astaire-Rogers musicals in the 30s, King Kong (1933) , and Citizen Kane (1941) . At one time, RKO was acquired by eccentric millionaire Howard Hughes. 1929-1955 4. Marcus Loew of Loew's, Inc., was the parent firm of what eventually became Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Metro Pictures Corporation was a production company founded in 1916 by Richard A. Rowland and Louis B. Mayer. In 1918, Mayer left this partnership to start up his own production company in 1918, called Louis B. Mayer Pictures. In 1920, Metro Pictures Corporation (with its already-acquired Goldwyn Pictures Corporation) was purchased by early theater exhibitor Marcus Loew of Loew's Inc. In another acquisition, Loew merged his Metro-Goldwyn production company with Louis B. Mayer Pictures. So, in summary, MGM, first named Metro-Goldwyn Pictures, was ultimately formed in 1924 from the merger of three US film production companies: Metro Pictures Corporation (1916) Goldwyn Pictures Corporation (1917) Louis B. Mayer Pictures Company (1918) The famous MGM lion roar in the studio's opening logo was first recorded and viewed in a film in 1928. Irving Thalberg (nicknamed the 'boy wonder') was head of production at MGM from 1924 until his death in 1936. Its greatest early successes were The Big Parade (1925) , Broadway Melody (1929), Grand Hotel (1932) , Mutiny on the Bounty (1935) , A Night at the Opera (1935) , The Good Earth (1937), Gone With the Wind (1939) , The Wizard of Oz (1939) , as well as Tarzan films, Tom and Jerry cartoons, and stars such as Clark Gable, Greta Garbo, and Spencer Tracy. 1916-1924 1928-1956 5. Fox Film Corporation/Foundation, was founded in 1912 by NY nickelodeon owner William Fox (originally a garment industry worker). Its first film was Life's Shop Window (1914). In 1935, it became 20th-Century Fox, formed from the merger of two companies: 20th Century Pictures Company (founded in 1933 by Darryl F. Zanuck, the head of production at Warners and Joseph Schenck, brother of Nicholas Schenk, president of Loew's, the parent company of MGM) Fox Film It became most known for Fox Movietone news and then B-westerns; it was also famous for Shirley Temple films in the mid-30s and Betty Grable musicals in the 40s. Pre-1930 1933 1935 The Big-Five studios had vast studios with elaborate sets for film production. They owned their own film-exhibiting theatres (about 50% of the seating capacity in the US in mostly first-run houses in major cities), as well as production and distribution facilities. They distributed their films to this network of studio-owned, first-run theaters (or movie palaces), mostly in urban areas, which charged high ticket prices and drew huge audiences. They required blind or block bookings of films, whereby theatre owners were required to rent a block of films (often cheaply-made, less-desirable B-pictures) in order for the studio to agree to distribute the one prestige A-level picture that the theatre owner wanted to exhibit. This technique set the terms for a film's release and patterns of exhibition and guaranteed success for the studio's productions. [Monopolistic studio control lasted twenty years until the late 1940s, when a federal decree (in U.S. vs. Paramount) ordered the studios to divest their theatres, similar to the rulings against the MPPC - the Edison Trust.] The Minor Film Studios: The Little Three Three smaller, minor studios were dubbed The Little Three, because each of them lacked one of the three elements required in vertical integration - owning their own theaters: 1936-1942 "Poverty Row" Studios and Other Independents: Other studios or independents also existed in a shabby area in Hollywood dubbed "Poverty Row" (Sunset Blvd. and Gower Street) where cheap, independent pictures were made with low budgets, stock footage, and second-tier actors. It was the site of Harry and Jack Cohn's new business, the C.B.C. Film Sales Company (later becoming Columbia Pictures). Many of the films of the independents were either horror films, westerns, science-fiction, or thrillers: Disney Studios - specializing in animation; Walt and Roy Disney originally opened their first studio in 1923 in Los Angeles in the back of the Holly-Vermont Realty office, and called it Disney Bros. Studio; in a few years, they opened a new facility in downtown LA; in the late 30s, they relocated to a 51-acre lot in Burbank, and changed their name to Walt Disney Productions the Monogram Picture Corporation - Rayart Pictures, which had taken over the old Selig Studio in Echo Park in 1924, became Monogram Pictures in 1930; it was founded by W. Ray Johnston to make mostly inexpensive Westerns and series (Charlie Chan, the Bowery Boys, etc.) Selznick International Pictures / David O. Selznick - it was formed in 1935 and headed up by David O. Selznick (previously the head of production at RKO), the son of independent film producer Lewis J. Selznick, the founder of Selznick Pictures Samuel Goldwyn Pictures - headed up by independent film producer Samuel L. Goldwyn Republic Pictures - founded in 1935 by the merger of smaller 'poverty row' studios: Consolidated Film Industries, Mascot, Monogram and Liberty, and headed by Herbert Yates of Consolidated Extravagant Movie Palaces: The major film studios built luxurious 'picture palaces' that were designed for orchestras to play music to accompany projected films. The 3,300-seat Strand Theater opened in 1914 in New York City, marking the end of the nickelodeon era and the beginning of an age of the luxurious movie palaces. By 1920, there were more than 20,000 movie houses operating in the US. The largest theatre in the world (with over 6,000 seats), the Roxy Theater (dubbed "The Cathedral of the Motion Picture"), opened in New York City in 1927, with a 6,200 seat capacity. It was opened by impresario Samuel Lionel "Roxy" Rothafel at a cost of $10 million. The first feature film shown at the Roxy Theater was UA's The Love(s) of Sunya (1927) starring Gloria Swanson (she claimed that it was her personal favorite film) and John Boles. [The Roxy was finally closed in 1960.] The Roxy was unchallenged as a showplace until Radio City Music Hall opened five years later. Grauman's Theatres: Impresario Sid Grauman built a number of movie palaces in the Los Angeles area in this time period: the Million Dollar Theater (on S. Broadway in downtown Los Angeles), the first movie palace in Los Angeles, opened in February, 1918 with 2,345 seats, and premiered the William S. Hart western film The Silent Man (1917) the Egyptian Theatre (on Hollywood Boulevard) opened in 1922 with 1,760 seats; it was the first major movie palace outside of downtown Los Angeles, and noted as having Hollywood's first movie premiere; its opening film was Robin Hood (1922) that starred Douglas Fairbanks; the theatre's creation was inspired by the discovery of King Tut's tomb that same year the now-famous Chinese Theater, with 2,258 seats, opened in Hollywood (on Hollywood Boulevard) in May, 1927 with the premiere of Cecil B. De Mille's King of Kings (1927). Star Imprints at Grauman's: Grauman, dubbed as "Hollywood's Master Showman," established the tradition of having Hollywood stars place their prints in cement in front of the theater to create an instant tourist attraction ever since. (Legend has it that during the theatre's construction, silent screen actress Norma Talmadge accidentally stepped into wet cement and inspired the tradition. Grauman immortalized his own footprints, and invited Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks to do the same.) Listed below are the first 10 stars, beginning in the spring of 1927, to imprint themselves (with handprints, footprints, or signatures) in the concrete of the Chinese Theatre's forecourt: Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, Apr. 30, 1927 Norma Talmadge, May 18, 1927 Norma Shearer, Aug. 1, 1927 Harold Lloyd, Nov. 21, 1927 William S. Hart, Nov. 28, 1927 Tom Mix and Tony (his horse), Dec. 12, 1927 Colleen Moore, Dec 19, 1927 Gloria Swanson, 1927 (specific date unknown) Constance Talmadge, 1927 (specific date unknown) Charlie Chaplin, Jan, 1928 Pickford and Fairbanks: Two of the biggest silent movie stars of the era were Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford. America flocked to the movies to see the Queen of Hollywood, dubbed "America's Sweetheart" and the most popular star of the generation - "Our Mary" Mary Pickford. She had been a child star, and had worked at Biograph as a bit actress in 1909, and only ten years later was one of the most influential figures in Hollywood at Paramount. In 1916, she was the first star to become a millionaire. She was married to another great star, Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. Their wedding in late March, 1920 was a major cultural event, although it was highly controversial since both of them had to divorce their spouses so they could marry each other. She was presented with a wedding gift - "Pickfair" [the first syllables of their last names], a twenty-two room palatial mansion (former hunting lodge) in the agricultural area of Beverly Hills - marking the start of the movement of stars to lavish homes in the suburbs of W. Hollywood and the making of Hollywood royalty. [The couple remained married from 1920-1935.] Strangely, Mary Pickford's downfall began after she bobbed her long curly hair, one of moviedom's first fashion trends, in 1928. Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. also became an American legend after switching from light comedies and starring in a series of exciting, costumed swashbuckler and adventure/fantasy films, starting with The Mark of Zorro (1920), soon followed with his expensively-financed, lavish adventure film Robin Hood (1922) with gigantic sets (famous for the scene in which he eluded death from sword-wielding attackers by jumping off a castle balcony and sliding down a 50 ft. curtain), and the first of four versions of the classic Arabian nights tale by director Raoul Walsh, The Thief of Bagdad (1924). This magical film used state of the art, revolutionary visual effects (for its smoke-belching dragon and underwater spider, the flying horse, the famed flying carpet, and magic armies arising from the dust) and displayed legendary production design. Another first occurred in 1926 - a Hollywood film premiere double-featured two films together: Fairbanks' The Black Pirate (1926) with early two-color Technicolor (and the superstar's most famous stunt of riding down a ship's sail on the point of a knife) and Mary Pickford's melodramatic film Sparrows (1926). Fairbanks scored again at the close of the decade with The Iron Mask (1929). The first and only film that co-featured both stars was a talkie version of The Taming of the Shrew (1929). Pickford's Coquette (1929), her first all-talking film, won her an Academy Award, but she retired prematurely four years later. Other 1920s Box-Office Stars: The top box-office stars in the 1920s included Harold Lloyd, Gloria Swanson, Tom Mix, Norma Talmadge, Rudolph Valentino, Douglas Fairbanks Sr., Colleen Moore, Norma Shearer, John Barrymore, Greta Garbo, Lon Chaney, Sr., Clara Bow, and "Little Mary" Pickford. Hauntingly mysterious and divine, Greta Garbo's first American film was The Torrent (1926), followed quickly by The Temptress (1926). Her first major starring vehicle was as a sultry temptress in torrid, prone love scenes with off-screen lover John Gilbert in Flesh and the Devil (1926). MGM renamed Broadway actress Lucille Le Sueur and christened her "Joan Crawford" in 1925. And Louise Brooks made her debut film in mid-decade with Street of Forgotten Men (1925). Glamorous MGM star Norma Shearer insured her future success as "The First Lady of the Screen" by marrying genius MGM production supervisor Irving Thalberg in 1927. Clara Bow, a red-haired, lower-class Brooklyn girl was subjected to a major publicity campaign by B. P. Schulberg (of Preferred Pictures (1920-1926) and then Paramount's head of production in the late 20s and early 30s). He promoted his up-and-coming, vivacious future star as his own personal star, after grooming and molding her for her star-making hit film The Plastic Age (1925) as a flirtatious flapper - the "hottest Jazz Baby in Film." Bow was also exceptional in Dancing Mothers (1926) and in her smash hit Mantrap (1926), and was further promoted with teaser campaigns for It (1927). She soon became known as "The It (sex appeal) Girl" (in the high-living age of flappers) after its February 1927 release. She was boosted to Paramount Studios' super-stardom in the late 1920s by more publicity campaigns, fan magazine glamorization, and rumor-spreading. Bow also starred in the epic WWI film Wings (1927), and in 1928 became the highest paid movie star (at $35,000/week). But by 1933, after years of victimizing exploitation, she had gone into serious decline and retired due to hard-drinking, exhaustion, gambling, emotional problems, a poor choice of roles, the revelation of a heavy working-class Brooklyn accent in the talkies, and a burgeoning weight problem. Lon Chaney, Sr., the "man of a thousand faces," starred in the earliest version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923), and then poignantly portrayed the title character of the Paris Opera House in The Phantom of the Opera (1925) in his signature role. The unveiling of the phantom's face, when Christine (Mary Philbin) rips off his mask - was (and still is) a startling sequence. Young screen actress, platinum blonde starlet Jean Harlow was also 'discovered' and soon contracted with aviation millionaire/movie mogul Howard Hughes to replace the female lead in his soon-to-be-released, re-made sound version of Hell's Angels (1930) , another exciting WWI film about British flying aces. Janet Gaynor: Another famous screen couple, dubbed "America's Lovebirds" or "America's Sweethearts" were romantic film stars Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell who were eventually paired together in twelve films. [The fact that Farrell was homosexual was kept from the public.] Their first film was Seventh Heaven (1927), a classic romantic melodrama. For their work in Seventh Heaven, Janet Gaynor received the first "Best Actress" Academy Award and director Frank Borzage received the first "Best Director" Academy Award. Janet Gaynor was also honored in the same year with an Academy Award for her exquisite acting in German director F. W. Murnau's first American film - the beautiful Fox-produced Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927) , often considered the finest silent film ever made by a Hollywood studio. Murnau's succeeding films were The Four Devils (1928) and Our Daily Bread (1930), with his last film the sensual semi-travelogue documentary Tabu: A Story of the South Seas (1931) shot with documentarist Robert Flaherty. (A week before Tabu's premiere in early March 1931, Murnau died in a car accident.) Film History of the 1920s	T.O.N.Y.

Phan-tastic! The Best Musical with the longest Broadway run to date is the 1988 winner, The Phantom of the Opera, which opened on January 26, 1988 and is still going strong. Mr. Versatility Michael Blakemore is the only director to win Tony Awards as Best Director of a Play and Best Director of a Musical in the same year. He won for Copenhagen (play) and Kiss Me, Kate (musical) in 2000. Triple Crown Bob Fosse was the only director to win a Tony, an Oscar, and an Emmy in the same year (1973). He won two Tonys (direction and choreography) for Pippin, an Oscar for Cabaret and an Emmy for "Liza with a Z."

The first Tony ceremony began with supper at 9:00 p.m. at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. Entertainment and dancing continued until midnight, at which time the awards were announced live over the radio. Way Back When During the first two years of the Tonys (1947 and 1948), there was no official Tony Award. The winners were presented with a scroll and, in addition, a money clip, a cigarette lighter (for the men) or a compact (for the women).	i don't know
What year was called 'The Year of Victories'?	French and Indian War - Facts & Summary - HISTORY.com French and Indian War A+E Networks Introduction Also known as the Seven Years’ War, this New World conflict marked another chapter in the long imperial struggle between Britain and France. When France’s expansion into the Ohio River valley brought repeated conflict with the claims of the British colonies, a series of battles led to the official British declaration of war in 1756. Boosted by the financing of future Prime Minister William Pitt, the British turned the tide with victories at Louisbourg, Fort Frontenac and the French-Canadian stronghold of Quebec. At the 1763 peace conference, the British received the territories of Canada from France and Florida from Spain, opening the Mississippi Valley to westward expansion. Google The Seven Years’ War (called the French and Indian War in the colonies) lasted from 1756 to 1763, forming a chapter in the imperial struggle between Britain and France called the Second Hundred Years’ War. In the early 1750s, France’s expansion into the Ohio River valley repeatedly brought it into conflict with the claims of the British colonies, especially Virginia . During 1754 and 1755, the French defeated in quick succession the young George Washington , Gen. Edward Braddock, and Braddock’s successor, Governor William Shirley of Massachusetts . In 1755, Governor Shirley, fearing that the French settlers in Nova Scotia (Acadia) would side with France in any military confrontation, expelled hundreds of them to other British colonies; many of the exiles suffered cruelly. Throughout this period, the British military effort was hampered by lack of interest at home, rivalries among the American colonies, and France’s greater success in winning the support of the Indians. In 1756 the British formally declared war (marking the official beginning of the Seven Years’ War), but their new commander in America, Lord Loudoun, faced the same problems as his predecessors and met with little success against the French and their Indian allies. The tide turned in 1757 because William Pitt, the new British leader, saw the colonial conflicts as the key to building a vast British empire. Borrowing heavily to finance the war, he paid Prussia to fight in Europe and reimbursed the colonies for raising troops in North America. In July 1758, the British won their first great victory at Louisbourg, near the mouth of the St. Lawrence River. A month later, they took Fort Frontenac at the western end of the river. Then they closed in on Quebec, where Gen. James Wolfe won a spectacular victory on the Plains of Abraham, September 1759 (though both he and the French commander, the Marquis de Montcalm, were fatally wounded). With the fall of Montreal in September 1760, the French lost their last foothold in Canada. Soon, Spain joined France against England, and for the rest of the war Britain concentrated on seizing French and Spanish territories in other parts of the world. At the peace conference in 1763, the British received Canada from France and Florida from Spain, but permitted France to keep its West Indian sugar islands and gave Louisiana to Spain. The treaty strengthened the American colonies significantly by removing their European rivals to the north and south and opening the Mississippi Valley to westward expansion.

Which 'A-road' connects London to Holyhead?	Milestones: 1750–1775 - Office of the Historian Milestones: 1750–1775 French and Indian War/Seven Years’ War, 1754–63 The French and Indian War was the North American conflict in a larger imperial war between Great Britain and France known as the Seven Years’ War. The French and Indian War began in 1754 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The war provided Great Britain enormous territorial gains in North America, but disputes over subsequent frontier policy and paying the war’s expenses led to colonial discontent, and ultimately to the American Revolution. Map from the French and Indian War The French and Indian War resulted from ongoing frontier tensions in North America as both French and British imperial officials and colonists sought to extend each country’s sphere of influence in frontier regions. In North America, the war pitted France, French colonists, and their Native allies against Great Britain, the Anglo-American colonists, and the Iroquois Confederacy, which controlled most of upstate New York and parts of northern Pennsylvania. In 1753, prior to the outbreak of hostilities, Great Britain controlled the 13 colonies up to the Appalachian Mountains, but beyond lay New France, a very large, sparsely settled colony that stretched from Louisiana through the Mississippi Valley and Great Lakes to Canada. (See Incidents Leading up to the French and Indian War and Albany Plan ) The border between French and British possessions was not well defined, and one disputed territory was the upper Ohio River valley. The French had constructed a number of forts in this region in an attempt to strengthen their claim on the territory. British colonial forces, led by Lieutenant Colonel George Washington, attempted to expel the French in 1754, but were outnumbered and defeated by the French. When news of Washington’s failure reached British Prime Minister Thomas Pelham-Holles, Duke of Newcastle, he called for a quick undeclared retaliatory strike. However, his adversaries in the Cabinet outmaneuvered him by making the plans public, thus alerting the French Government and escalating a distant frontier skirmish into a full-scale war. General Edward Braddock The war did not begin well for the British. The British Government sent General Edward Braddock to the colonies as commander in chief of British North American forces, but he alienated potential Indian allies and colonial leaders failed to cooperate with him. On July 13, 1755, Braddock died after being mortally wounded in an ambush on a failed expedition to capture Fort Duquesne in present-day Pittsburgh. The war in North America settled into a stalemate for the next several years, while in Europe the French scored an important naval victory and captured the British possession of Minorca in the Mediterranean in 1756. However, after 1757 the war began to turn in favor of Great Britain. British forces defeated French forces in India, and in 1759 British armies invaded and conquered Canada. Facing defeat in North America and a tenuous position in Europe, the French Government attempted to engage the British in peace negotiations, but British Minister William Pitt (the elder), Secretary for Southern Affairs, sought not only the French cession of Canada but also commercial concessions that the French Government found unacceptable. After these negotiations failed, Spanish King Charles III offered to come to the aid of his cousin, French King Louis XV, and their representatives signed an alliance known as the Family Compact on August 15, 1761. The terms of the agreement stated that Spain would declare war on Great Britain if the war did not end before May 1, 1762. Originally intended to pressure the British into a peace agreement, the Family Compact ultimately reinvigorated the French will to continue the war, and caused the British Government to declare war on Spain on January 4, 1762, after bitter infighting among King George III’s ministers. Despite facing such a formidable alliance, British naval strength and Spanish ineffectiveness led to British success. British forces seized French Caribbean islands, Spanish Cuba, and the Philippines. Fighting in Europe ended after a failed Spanish invasion of British ally Portugal. By 1763, French and Spanish diplomats began to seek peace. In the resulting Treaty of Paris (1763), Great Britain secured significant territorial gains in North America, including all French territory east of the Mississippi river, as well as Spanish Florida, although the treaty returned Cuba to Spain. Unfortunately for the British, the fruits of victory brought seeds of trouble with Great Britain’s American colonies. The war had been enormously expensive, and the British government’s attempts to impose taxes on colonists to help cover these expenses resulted in increasing colonial resentment of British attempts to expand imperial authority in the colonies. British attempts to limit western expansion by colonists and inadvertent provocation of a major Indian war further angered the British subjects living in the American colonies. These disputes ultimately spurred colonial rebellion, which eventually developed into a full-scale war for independence.	i don't know
Which motor car manufacturer introduced the 'Aero 8' model in 1998?	Morgan Owners Group - The Vintage Racing League The Vintage Racing League View Groups Information Morgan Motor Company was founded in 1909 by H.F.S. Morgan. Morgan is based in Malvern Link, an area of Malvern, Worcestershire. Tweet Facebook Morgan History The Morgan Motor Company is a British motor car manufacturer. The company was founded in 1909 by H.F.S. Morgan and was run by him until 1959. Peter Morgan, son of H.F.S., ran the company until a few years before his death in 2003. Morgan is based in Malvern Link, an area of Malvern, Worcestershire and employs 163 people. All the cars are assembled by hand. The waiting list for a car is approximately one to two years, although it has been as high as 10 years in the past. Morgan produced 640 cars in 2007. Early cars - three-wheelers and 4-4s The early cars were two seat or four seat three-wheelers, and are therefore considered to be cyclecars. Three-wheeled vehicles avoided the British tax on cars by being classified as motorcycles. Competition from small cars like the Austin 7 and the original Morris Minor, with comparable economy and price and better comfort, made cyclecars less attractive. V-Twin three-wheelers (1911-1939) Morgan Aero 2-Seater Sports 1926H.F.S. Morgan's first car design was a single-seat three-wheeled runabout which was fabricated for his personal use in 1909. Interest in his runabout led him to patent his design and begin production. While he initially showed single-cylinder and twin-cylinder versions of his runabout at the 1911 Olympia Motor Exhibition, he was convinced at the exhibition that there would be greater demand for a two-seat model. Morgan built his cars' reputation by entering them in competitions. One of his racing cars won the 1913 Cyclecar Grand Prix at Amiens in France. This became the basis for the Grand Prix model of 1913 to 1926, from which evolved the Aero, Super Sports, and Sports models. These models used air-cooled or liquid-cooled variations of motorcycle engines. The engine was placed ahead of the axis of the front wheels in a chassis made of steel tubes brazed into cast lugs. The V-Twin models were not returned to production after World War II. F-Series three-wheelers (1932-1952) 1936 Morgan F4 Open TourerBeginning in 1932, a new series of Morgan three-wheelers began with the F-4. The F-4, and its later siblings the F-2 and the F-Super, used a pressed-steel chassis and the four-cylinder Ford Sidevalve engine that was used in the Model Y. Production of the Ford-engined three-wheelers would continue until 1952. 4-4 Morgan's first four-wheeler was the 4-4, for four-cylinder engine and four wheels. The first production 4 wheeled Morgan was released to the public in 1936 and is known as the Morgan 4-4 Series 1. Three-wheeler production continued alongside the 4-4 until 1952. Postwar four-wheel cars 1952 "flat radiator" Morgan +4 1963 Morgan +4Main article: Morgan +4 The Morgan +4 was introduced in 1950 as a larger engined ("plus") car than the 4-4. The +4 used the 2088 cc Standard Vanguard engine, while the 4-4 used a Standard Special 1267 cc engine (1950-58). Later +4s used Triumph TR2 - TR4 engines (1954-1969). +4 production was suspended in 1969 but brought back in 1985 with a Fiat engine (1985-1988) and then a 4 cylinder Rover engine (1988-2000). Production was again suspended and the Plus 4 returned once more in 2004 with a 155 bhp (116 kW/157 PS) Ford 4 cylinder. +4+ Main article: Morgan +4+ A version of the +4, designated the +4+, was made from 1964 to 1967 with a contemporary fiberglass coupe body. The light weight and reduced drag characteristics improved the performance of the +4+ over the regular +4 in every aspect. However, the traditional Morgan enthusiasts did not embrace this departure from Morgan custom, and mainstream enthusiasts did not embrace the seemingly archaic +4 chassis. Only 26 +4+ cars were built. Morgan 4/4 1974 Morgan 4/4Main article: Morgan 4/4 The 4-4 was replaced by the 4/4 in 1955. The 4/4 now uses the +8 chassis and a Ford engine. Morgan +8 1986 Morgan Plus 8Main article: Morgan Plus 8 Faced with the decreasing availability of large four-cylinder engines for use in their +4 models, Morgan began to install the recently-available Rover V8 engine in their cars in 1968, giving these cars the model designation +8. The engine displacement jumped from the 2.3 L of the Triumph TR4 engine to 3.5 L, then 3.9L (1990), 4.0 (1998-2004) with an optional 4.6L (1996-2000) all based on the same Land Rover block. However, the V-8 was no longer than the Triumph. These features made the +8 accelerate much more quickly than the early +4 and also improved its road-holding capability. Horsepower (143-204 bhp), weight and performance varied with emission and structural laws through its history. In its final form, the GEMS Land Rover V8 produced 190 hp (140 kW). Thus powered, the car could accelerate from 0-60 mph in 5.6 seconds. Many enthusiasts work on the engine, exhaust, carburettors or EFI systems and improve this figure. Roadster In 2004, Morgan came out with a trad model to replace the departing Plus 8. The new model, named the "Roadster" is powered by a Ford UK Mondeo V6 producing 212 bhp (158 kW/215 PS). In 2007, the Mondeo engine was replaced by a US version of the same engine in the Roadster II. Availability to the United States For part of the 1950s and 1960s, the USA provided the company with its largest market worldwide, taking up to 85% of all production. This ended with the first wave of US safety and emission regulations in 1971. For many years (1974 to 1992), all Morgans imported into the United States were converted to run on propane as fuel to pass the U.S. emissions regulations. However, this conversion, along with bringing the cars into compliance with US vehicle safety leglislation, was carried out by the dealership, and not by the factory, making the cars grey market vehicles. However, when the Rover Group re-certified their V-8 engine for use in the Range Rover SUV sold in the U.S., Morgan was able to use the same engine for a fully US compliant stock Morgan from 1992 to 1996,[citation needed] and again from 1998 to 2004.[citation needed]In 2005, the engine was replaced with the US version of another traditionally-shaped model (with a V6) called the Roadster. In 2002, Morgan centralized its international compliancy development and regulatory interaction in-house. In 2005, its right to import its classic models ceased when supplies of its necessary airbag were exhausted and no replacement was developed. In 2006, a request for an airbag exemption to the NHTSA was refused, and the importation of classic Morgans ceased. In 2005, the new Morgan Aero 8 model (vers. 2 and 3) received a 3 year exemption from rear impact non-compliance, along with a separate exemption for compliance with "advanced airbag requirements. "The rear-impact exemption lapsed in May 2008 without further application. Morgan has indicated to its US dealers that it plans to re-apply for US certification for some model at as yet an undetermined date in the future." Morgan Aero 8 A Modern Morgan Aero 8 at the Scarsdale ConcoursMain article: Morgan Aero 8 In 2000, the Morgan Aero 8 was introduced and, as always, the wooden body substructure was ash. (Contrary to popular myth, however, the chassis is metal; aluminium for the Aero 8). The Aero 8, with a BMW V8 engine in a car half the weight of the BMW, is even faster than the Plus 8, delivering what Autoweek magazine termed supercar performance. The newest Aero 8 (Ser. IV) puts out 367HP @6100 rpm giving it a top speed of over 170 mph. Due to the Aero 8's light weight it can do 0-62 in 4.5 seconds. Morgan AeroMax The Morgan Aeromax is a coupe variation of the Aero 8. Production was limited to 100 cars, each costing £110,000. Customers have included Richard Hammond, Rowan Atkinson and Paul O'Grady. General characteristics Traditional Morgan sliding kingpin suspensionIn spite of their traditional design, Morgans have always had sporting or 'sports car' performance, due to their extremely low weight. Among their enthusiasts, Morgans are affectionately known as "Moggies". H.F.S. Morgan's 1909 Runabout used an independent front suspension system with each front wheel mounted on a kingpin mounted to slide along a fixed pillar and located by a spring. Morgan used developments of this suspension system throughout its existence and it is still used on Morgan's "classic" line, although not on the Aero 8 or its derivatives. Morgan LIFEcar Main article: Morgan LIFEcar Morgan LIFEcarIn October 2006 Morgan announced it would produce a fuel cell based sports car called the LIFEcar and based on the Aero 8 as an experiment. It is being built in collaboration with the UK Department for Trade and Industry (DTI), fuel cell maker QinetiQ, BOC, and OScar, and educational institutions. Morgan will present the car in 2-3 years time. This car has been designed and styled by a new Morgan designer, Matthew Humpheries, and has excited much interest. The Company confirmed in June 2008 that it has no immediate plans to advance the LIFEcar to a production prototype. Models	Morgan
Which artist painted the picture, 'The Resurrection In Cookham Churchyard'?	Morgan Morgan Headquarters and factory: Malvern Link, Worcestershire Sales figures 2005 production: 584 cars Introduction No other car makers follow traditions like Morgan. After 100 years, it is still located at the original site and remains a family business. It might look old-fashioned from its cars or its red-brick factory, but it did find a niche in the market, as there are always some rich customers want classic cars and the heritage associated with them. Morgan produces real living history, unlike the fake classic cars from rivals like Wiesmann and Mitsuoka. Since he took over the family business in 2006, Charles Morgan modernized the technology of its cars (thanks to BMW components) but kept their traditional looks and hand-crafted production method mostly unchanged. While other British sports car specialists went burst one by one, Morgan enjoys increasing sales and the longest waiting list (in terms of delivery time) in the auto industry. Brief History Morgan was founded in 1909 by H.F.S. Morgan at Malvern Link of Worcestershire. Throughout the years it remained at that place and managed by the family - H.F.S. himself, then his son Peter Morgan and his grandson Charles Morgan. The first Morgan car was Runabout, a 3-wheeler powered by a Peugeot V-twin engine. In the first 3 decades, Morgan remained a manufacturer of 3-wheelers only. As 3-wheelers became decreasingly popular over time, Morgan finally introduced its first 4-wheel car in 1936. It was called 4/4, which meant 4 wheels and 4 cylinders. The lightweight Morgan sports car offered good performance for its time. It chassis was made of ash wood frames sandwiched with thin aluminum skins, a lightweight feature still being used by its cars today. In 1950, the 4/4 was succeeded by Plus 4, whose name implied an enlarged 4-cylinder engine, but it kept the classical pre-war sports car style. Morgan never built its own engines. Instead, it sourced engines from Standard, Conventry Climax, Triumph, Rover and Ford. Morgan Plus 8 1968 came the Rover V8-powered Plus 8. This engine, initially displaced 3.5 liters and later on 3.9 and 4.0 liters, provided sparkling performance to the lightweight Morgan. It served the car until as late as 2004 when Rover ceased its production. Without any ambitious business plans, Morgan has always been satisified to produce cars by hands and in small volume. However, its Plus 4 and Plus 8 became increasingly outdated in chassis technology as the basics had not been changed since 1950. Entering the new millenium, the third-generation owner, Charles Morgan, started making changes. Not only the production facilities were modernized, he introduced an all-new model called Aero 8. This car employed an advanced aluminum tub chassis while preserving traditional ash wood frames in non-stressed area to please its customers. Its proportion and style also resembled the classic Morgan as far as possible, although aerodynamic was enhanced. BMW offered its V8 engines, transmissions and modern electronics, which helped it pass type approval tests in EU and USA. With Aero 8, Morgan was one of the few British sports car specialists improving its business in the first decade of new millenium. Copyright© 1997-2013 by Mark Wan	i don't know

What is the state capital of North Carolina, sharing its name with the surname of a famous historical figure?	History Of Raleigh \| raleighnc.gov History Of Raleigh Last updated Aug. 17, 2016 - 3:35 pm Raleigh's history is bountiful. In 1792, Raleigh was created to be North Carolina's seat of government. To fully appreciate this uniquely blessed city, one must contemplate the history and delightfully complex composition of the state that created Raleigh. Home to the Native American Iroquoian, Siouan and Algonquian tribes, it is also the birthplace of Virginia Dare, the first child born of English parents in the new world during the first attempt by the English to settle the western hemisphere. One of the original 13 colonies, North Carolina was the first to officially call for independence with the Halifax Resolves in 1776. A state of yeoman farmers and among the South's first industrial areas, North Carolina was no home place to the gentry, but rather a state of working men and women who valued education and established the nation's first state university. North Carolina's appreciation of education also created a notable public school system and the nation's best community college system. Though firmly in the grip of the hard times of the 1920s, North Carolina invested in a statewide network of paved thoroughfares and became known as "the good roads state," recognizing that the lifeline of economic growth was a statewide transportation network. That diverse composition of people, that love of freedom, that gritty work ethic, that esteem for education and that common sense approach to economic development combined to create the robust environment in which North Carolina's capital city today thrives. Listed below are key dates and events in the history of this great city. Prior to 1800 1587: Under direction of Sir Walter Raleigh, John White founds the "Cittie of Raleigh." The only known site is in the vicinity of the settlement built in 1585 by the Ralph Lane Colony on the north end of Roanoke Island, about 190 miles from present-day Raleigh. John White returns to England. 1590: John White returns, but the colony has disappeared. Today, it is popularly referred to as The Lost Colony.

Raleigh passed the $16 Million Housing Bond Referendum to support quality affordable housing. Raleigh passed the $40 Million Transportation Bond Referendum to fund bike lanes, greenways, new sidewalks, sidewalk repair and general street resurfacing. The City formally opened the Falls of Neuse Road bridge, completing the first phase of a major project that provides motorists and pedestrians a new route to subdivisions and other locations in far north Raleigh. The City Council approved a design for the planned Horseshoe Farm Park, 146 acres of land on the Neuse River in northeastern Wake County. The first phase of the park construction will include widening the access road to the park site, dam improvements, parking, signage, connecting to the Neuse River Greenway Trail, developing soft surface walking trails, natural resource management, stabilization of the existing farm house structure and building restrooms and a picnic shelter. Mayor Charles Meeker joined with the North Central Citizens Advisory Council and the residents around the New Bern Avenue and Edenton Street community in a walking tour of the landmarks in the neighborhood. The tour is part of the City’s New Bern Avenue Corridor Study. The study of Raleigh’s historic eastern gateway focuses on the area from Swain Street to Wake Medical Center. The preliminary goals of the study are to identify ways to improve the appearance of the corridor; support pedestrian, bicycle and transit uses along the corridor; and stimulate economic development initiatives and revitalization in the area. A new fall tradition was launched in Downtown with ARTSober. Performances by the Carolina Ballet, Hot Summer Nights at the Kennedy, the North Carolina Symphony, North Carolina Theatre, North Carolina Opera and PineCone rang out throughout the day of Oct. 15, emanating from the Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts and Lichtin Plaza. The arts festival was designed to recruit wider audiences to the performing arts center. The City conducted an open house on the Peace Street Corridor Visioning Study. The study is focusing on Peace Street from West to Person streets. The goal is to identify and propose improvements to enhance the corridor’s capacity for pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular traffic and support private redevelopment efforts. JDavis Architect worked with the City to develop the Peace Corridor Visioning Study as a pro bono project. NOVEMBER The City Council received an update of the draft Unified Development Ordinance. The Council approved a seven week public review period starting Jan. 3, with a public hearing set for Feb. 21. The City Council approved a resolution requesting the State of North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources designate the first eight miles of the Neuse River Greenway Trail as a Mountain to Sea Trail segment. The City Council unanimously approved the authorization of the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization entering into a contract for Phase II of a transportation planning study of the U.S. 1 North Corridor in Franklin County. The City hosted its second and final open house to gather public input on a comprehensive pedestrian plan. The City, in partnership with the North Carolina Department of Transportation, is developing a plan which will implement a convenient network of sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian signals, trails and other pedestrian facilities throughout Raleigh. Raleigh residents gained a new park to enjoy when the City opened Strickland Road Neighborhood Park. The 37-acre park’s phase I development included new playground equipment, walking trails, driveway, a 35-space parking lot and cost $628,884. Plans for the park include a neighborhood center, basketball half-courts and picnic areas. The eight-mile Upper Neuse River Greenway Trail was opened to the public. This is the first section of the planned Neuse River Greenway Trail to be completed. The Neuse River Greenway Trail was envisioned as a segment of the State of North Carolina Mountains-to-Sea Trail, which will run 1000 miles across North Carolina from Clingmans Dome in the Great Smoky Mountains to Jockey’s Ridge State Park on the Outer Banks. Newly released figures from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis revealed that some metro areas are beginning to distance themselves from the pack in their economic recovery from the recession, according to the Urban Land Institute magazine. Raleigh took fifth place among metropolitan areas posting the highest total economic growth. The article’s author, Jeffrey Spivak wrote: “In just 10 percent of the nation’s 50 largest metropolitan areas, total economic growth exceeded 10 percent since 2007.” The financial services company USAA and the veterans’ membership organization Military.com placed Raleigh on their list of the 10 best metropolitan areas for military retirees to launch new careers. The City was awarded most gracious access of more than four rolling and wooded acres that sustain one of the Piedmont’s most expansive variety of flowers, shrubberies, plants, grasses, groundcovers and trees. The benefactors Mary Coker Joslin and the late William Joslin, made their home at the site at 2431 West Lake Drive for more than 60 years. The Joslin family and the City of Raleigh have founded a tax-exempt entity, the City of Oaks Foundation, which will be the owners of the property and the recipient of the Joslin Gardens Endowment Fund for the maintenance of the property. The City Council requested an extension from the North Carolina Department of Transportation of the temporary bicycle lane markings along Hillsborough Street between Gardner and Enterprise streets. The long awaited reopening of the popular amusement center at Pullen Park took place on a glorious Nov. 19 afternoon. The 124-year-old park’s amusement center, the fifth oldest operating amusement park in the United States and the 16 oldest in the world, had been closed since December 2009 for much needed renovations. The renovations to the southern end of Pullen Park included a new carousel house, welcome center, train station, concessions building and restroom. The carousel’s animals received a significant makeover. Other site improvements included a new entrance, event spaces, playground, underground utilities and picnic shelters. Additionally, Lake Howell was drained and dredged and a new boat dock was installed along with a new apron and geothermal energy system for the lake. The City Council voted unanimously to support policy recommendations by the American Water Works Association for the upcoming federal farm bill. The recommendations would significantly reduce nutrient loading in drinking water reservoirs from agricultural operations. The City Council approved a request to negotiate a contract with Skeo Solutions of Charlottesville, Va., to serve as a consultant for the collaborative discussion with the Chavis community on the future of Chavis Park. In 2009, the Council approved the relocation of the historic Chavis Park carousel within the park. The Council also agreed to survey the Chavis community to learn the residents’ wishes and concerns for the future and the park. In addition to the historic carousel the 34-acre park which was dedicated in 1937, features greenway trails, athletic facilities, a neighborhood pool and community center. Raleigh enjoys the quality of life that puts it on the top of the “best of” lists. To stay at such a dizzying height takes insight, foresight, innovations and a unified strategy. Making that happen is the objective of the Raleigh Innovation Summit that Mayor Charles Meeker announced Nov. 21 in conjunction with Dr. Terri Lomax, vice chancellor or Research, Innovation and Economic Development at North Carolina State University. The summit will be held Jan. 18 in the Raleigh Convention Center. DECEMBER The people of Raleigh gave outgoing Mayor Charles Meeker a big thank you Dec. 3, after he threw the switch on the city’s holiday tree. Immediately after lighting the tree on Fayetteville Streets’ City Plaza, Mayor-Elect Nancy McFarlane joined Mayor Meeker on the stage and read a proclamation from the residents of Raleigh proclaiming December “Mayor Charles Meeker Month” as a means of expressing their gratitude for his service and leadership. After reading the proclamation, the City fired up a glowing tribute to the Mayor that read: “Thank You Charles.” The Fayetteville Street setting for the tribute was most appropriate. Mayor Meeker listed the return of Fayetteville Street to vehicular traffic and the revitalization of Downtown as his paramount priorities. Traffic returned to “North Carolina’s Main Street” July 29, 2006. A swearing-in ceremony for the newly elected Mayor and City Council was held the evening of Dec. 5 in the Cabarrus Street lobby of the Raleigh Convention Center. The installation marked Nancy MacFarlane’s first term as Mayor of Raleigh and the 34th Raleigh City Council under the council/manager form of government. This is the 20th City Council under the district system, with direct election of the Mayor. The ceremony marked the close of Charles Meeker’s decade of service as Mayor.

Mayor Nancy McFarlane reacted to the Dec. 8 U.S. Postal Service’s announcement that, “discontinuance of Century Station will not be pursued at this time,” to thank those who made efforts to keep the Fayetteville Street National Register Property operating, especially former Mayor Charles Meeker. Raleigh’s population of 403,892 makes it the nation’s 43rd most populous city, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The rise is a combination of Raleigh’s consistent growth while other cities’ populations are shrinking or growing at a slower pace. Raleigh’s population rose more than 46.2 percent since the last U.S. Census was conducted. The 2000 population was 276,093. The Capital City’s population has more than doubled since 1988 when 201,111 persons called Raleigh home. Raleigh’s population is between Miami’s at 399,457 and Omaha, Neb., at 408,958. The City of Raleigh and Progress Energy Carolinas announced the start of a two-year research and development partnership to evaluate solar-powered electric vehicle charging stations.

The City’s share of the projected $75 million project cost will be approximately $7 million. On March 7, the City of Raleigh refunded $33.4 million in Series 2004 water/sewer utility bonds. This resulted in net present value savings of $2.9 million or 8.84 percent of the amount of the refunded bonds. The City Council approved the joint purchase of 113 acres of conservation easement in Orange County. The City is participating with the Eno River Association, the Orange County Natural Resources Conservation Service, Orange County and the Town of Hillsborough in the purchase. The land features approximately 8,000 linear feet along Seven Mile Creek. The City’s participation in the $746,000 purchase is $69,000. Council Members voted in favor of the City issuing up to $9 million in two-thirds general obligation bonds. The proposal consists of $7.5 million for parks and recreational facilities bonds and $1.5 million for land acquisition bonds. The City proposed to use the bonds for the following projects: second-phase development of the Annie Louise Wilkerson, M.D., Nature Preserver Park; a new tennis complex next to Barwell Road Community Center; upgrades to the City’s Dix soccer fields off of Western Boulevard to the WRAL Soccer Center on Perry Creek Road; and, an urban agricultural center just south of Downtown off of Garner Road. According to a March 12 report from the technology jobs website DICE.com , the Triangle is the hottest spot for technology jobs in the United States. The report found that employers within a 30-mile radius of Raleigh are posting 1,120 jobs daily with an average salary of $79,000. That jobs number is up 50 percent from a year ago and nearly triple from the depths of the recession in March 2009.

The City Council unanimously approved the appropriation of up to $6,600 for the replacement of two video encoders to enable viewing the streamed feed of live coverage of meetings of the City Council and City boards, commissions and committees on mobile devices. On March 23, it may have seemed to some that Sir Walter Raleigh was a bit overdressed, but the residents of his eponymous city thought he looked swell. That’s because the statue in front of the Raleigh Convention Center was decked out with a Shaw University Bears flag and a North Carolina State University Wolfpack basketball jersey. That evening, the Lady Bears won the NCAA Women’s Division II national championship. Alas, the NCSU men’s basketball squad fell short in its bid for a victory in the NCAA Division I Midwest regional semifinal. First-phase construction of the Chavis Park carousel house project began the last week in March. The park and Chavis Community Center will remain open to the public throughout construction of the carousel house project. The City of Raleigh’s commitment to building an even more robust, sustainable economy became tangible with the opening of the Economic Development Office. The mission of the new units is to develop a strategic plan for implementing the economic development policies that were established in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and to manage the relationship of City-funded economic development agencies. APRIL April brought 10-digit dialing to the Triangle. The addition of the area code to local dialing accommodates the expanding number of telephone numbers in the area served by the 919 area code. Unforeseen was the tremendous burden careless dialing would placed on the Raleigh-Wake Emergency Communications Center. Misdials and hang-up calls related to 10-didti dialing slowed 911 dispatchers’ response time and overtaxed operators receiving calls. Residents are reminded that if they dial 911 instead of the intended 919 stay on the line and talk to the 911 dispatcher. Misdials and hang-up calls divert resources away from actual emergencies since dispatchers must dial back on hang-ups to assure than an emergency is not taking place. If no response is receive3d from the call-back, dispatchers send a police officer to the source of the call to make certain that no assistance is needed. To date in 2012 the Emergency Communications Center has responded to 597,555 911 calls, an increase of 17.4 percent over 2011. Michael Baker Engineering Inc. of Cary was selected to conduct an environmental study of the proposed West Street extension project.

The ordinance requires that electric vehicles parked in the designated spaces must be attached to a charging station. Otherwise, the owner would be found in violation of the ordinance and face a $50 fine. The City Council unanimously approved the issuance of two sets of authorized bonds. The proposal consists of the issuance of up to $138.6 million in general obligation bonds and up to $9 million in two-thirds general obligation bonds. The $138.6 million in general obligation bonds were approved by Raleigh voters in past referendums to finance various public improvements. They include: $30 million in street improvement bonds approved in 2005; $88.6 million in parks and recreation facilities bonds approved in 2007; and, $20 million in transportation bonds approved in 2011. The $9 million in two-thirds general obligation bonds consist of $7.5 million for parks and recreational facility and $1.5 million for land acquisition bonds. The Local Government Commission of North Carolina awarded the bonds to J.P Morgan Securities LLC at a true interest cost of 2.78 percent. This is the lowest interest rate received by the City for its new money general obligation bonds in at least the last 20 years.

The buy-back obligation was triggered by Charter Square’s inability to meet the Sept. 20 deadline for starting construction of a planned 11-story, mixed-use building on the property. The original construction deadline of Sept. 19, 2012 was extended by the Council. The City will pay no more than $20.275 million to reacquire the site.

In January, the council approved a 99-year lease for the property with Vann Joines/Landmark Group. The developers sought to rezone and redevelop the City-owned block to allow for a 49-unit apartment complex geared toward artists and entrepreneurs with lower than area median incomes. The project subsequently failed to win the $4.1 million in low–income housing tax credits, prompting the City to solicit the proposals. The Council approved a grant of $5,000 to Innovate Raleigh, a partnership between the City and North Carolina State University, Wake County Economic Develop, the Downtown Raleigh Alliance, Wake Technical Community College, the Wake County Public School System and the Council for Entrepreneurial Development.

The final approval was $11,000 for the planning and stewardship elements of six healthy working forest easements, totaling 668 acres located in the Falls Lake watershed. Purchase of the easement was funded by grants received from the United States Endowment for Forestry and Communities Healthy Forests for Healthy Watersheds. The City Council unanimously approved a new bicycle ordinance on November 5. The new ordinance clarifies differences between a bicycle and motor vehicles, and defines the streets and facilities that may be used by bicyclists.

The foundation presented a $25,000 award to the City of Raleigh Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department. The award is to be used to sponsor need-based scholarships for children to participate in City-conducted summer camps and nature programs.

The $2.50 million project will upgrade the capacity of the dam and spillway to meet the State of North Carolina standards. The cost for the design of improvements to three pedestrian bridges providing access across Interstate 40 was approved by the City Council. The three bridges were selected based on pedestrian demand and funds available under a previously approved Federal Surface Transportation Program-Direct Apportionment/Planning grant. The three pedestrian bridges are: Buck Jones Road South of I-40 to Farm Gate Road; Avent Ferry Road south of Mistiflower Drive to 400 feet north of I-40; and, Rock Quarry Road south of I-40 to north of I-40. The design of improvements will total more than $1.94 million. The City Council established the Downtown Plan Advisory Committee comprised of 22 members and five alternates. The committee will serve as advisors in support of the new Downtown Plan. A kick-off event will be held during the first three months of 2014, at which the members will be instructed in their roles in developing a strategy for further sustained improvements to Downtown Raleigh. A contract was approved for the construction of the second phase of renovation planned for the Annie Louise Wilkerson, M.D., Nature Preserve Park. The contract for approximately $2 million was awarded to Daniels and Daniels Construction Co., Inc. The second phase includes the renovation of Dr. Wilkerson’s former home into an education center. Dr. Wilkerson gave the 157 acres in the extreme northern section of Raleigh upon her death in 2004 with the stipulation that it be maintained as a “nature preserve park” used for the primary purpose of nature and wildlife education. Raleigh residents looking to make small improvement to their community gained a new funding option with the City’s two pilot projects using a “crowd funding” model of financing. The pilot launched December 9 with the goal of raising funds for two projects solely through small donations from residents. The City partnered with the City of Oaks Foundation on both projects, with donations being requested through December 31. The first project is the purchase, installation and maintenance of decorative bicycle racks.

From Slavery to Freedom (originally published in 1947, now in its seventh edition) -a definitive history of African Americans from their origins in Africa, through years of slavery in the New World, to the struggle for freedom and its aftermath in the West Indies, Latin America and the U.S. Author-John Hope Franklin (Jan 2, 1915-March 2009)-noted scholar on African-American history and James B. Duke Professor Emeritus of History at Duke University. History of African Americans in North Carolina Chronicles the history of North Carolina's African-American community from pre-colonial days to the 20th century. Authors-Dr.James J. Crow, Paul D. Escot, & Flora J. Hatley originally published 1992, by the North Carolina Office of Archives and History. How do I know I can trust this information? As the library of North Carolina state government, our purpose is to present factual information about North Carolina's history, culture, government, and natural resources. We do our best to provide correct and up-to-date information. Introduction February is Black History Month. The State Library would like to take this time to honor North Carolina's rich and diverse African-American heritage. Since the first Africans arrived on the shores of North Carolina in the 16th century, African Americans have been making their mark on the fabric of North Carolina's history. Throughout the centuries, the black community has endured and evolved since the early days of enslavement through the upheaval of the Civil War to the promise of Emancipation and beyond. This state has had a prominent presence in the prosperity and progress of African Americans. For instance, the first black member of the U.S. Congress, Hiram Rhoades Revels, was a North Carolina native; the first Historically Black College and University (HBCU) in the South, Shaw University, was founded here; and the state is also home to one of the nation's oldest black-owned businesses, NC Mutual Insurance Company. However, progress has not come without struggle. Many years after gaining their freedom, African Americans were still fighting for equal treatment under the law. The struggle for civil rights and equality gave rise to the Civil Rights Movement and North Carolina was at the forefront of the movement. The Greensboro sit-ins, in which four college students sat down at a lunch counter in Woolworth's to protest racial discrimination, has been hailed by many as a catalyst for the Civil Rights movement because it sparked a wave of non-violent protests across the South. From slavery to freedom, African Americans have been making an impact on the state's as well as the nation's politics, educational institutions, businesses, armed forces, religious practices, arts and sports. As recently as 2008, North Carolina proved to be a pivotal state in the election of the country's first African-American president. Please join the State Library as we celebrate the heritage of North Carolina's African-American community.

E B Oh, where have you been, my darling young one? A E I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains A E I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways A E I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests A E I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans A E I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard E B E A And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard E B E A E And it's a hard rain's a gonna fall Oh, what did you see, my blue eyed son? Oh, what did you see, my darling young one? I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin' I saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin' I saw a white ladder all covered with water I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard And it's a hard rain's a gonna fall And what did you hear, my blue eyed son? And what did you hear, my darling young one? I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin' Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazin' Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin' Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin' Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard And it's a hard rain's a gonna fall Oh, who did you meet, my blue eyed son? Who did you meet, my darling young one? I met a young child beside a dead pony I met a white man who walked a black dog I met a young woman whose body was burning I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow I met one man who was wounded in love I met another man who was wounded with hatred And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard rain's a gonna fall Oh, what'll you do now, my blue eyed son? Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one? I'm a goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a fallin' I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest Where the people are many and their hands are all empty Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison Where the executioner's face is always well hidden Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten Where black is the color, where none is the number And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin' But I'll know my song well before I start singin' And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard rain's a gonna fall (from The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, 1963) (sent by Harlan at [email protected]) From: [email protected] Received: by pesto.MIT.EDU (5.57/4.7) id AA13580; Mon, 10 Jun 96 18:51:56 -0400 Date: Mon, 10 Jun 1996 18:51:55 EDT (forwarded message) I have downloaded the song of Bob Dylan A hard rain's gonna fall, and I think it has a problem I send you the (I think so) good one.

Here's a corrected version. Abandoned Love by Bob Dylan (from Biograph collection) Intro: My heart is telling me, I love you still Verses: I can see the turning of the key C D I've been deceived by the clown inside of me Bm C I thought that he was righteous but he's vain G D G Something's telling me, I wear the ball and chain (same chords throughout) My patron saint is a-fighting with a ghost He's always off somewhere when I need him most The Spanish moon is rising on the hill But something's telling me, I love you still I come back to the town from the flaming ruins But when I see you in the street I begin to swoon I love to see you dress before the mirror Won't you let me in your room one time, before I finally disappear Everybody's wearing a disguise To hide what they've got left behind their eyes But me I can't cover what I am Wherever their children go, I'll follow them I'm marching the parade of liberty But as long as I love you I'm not free How long must I suffer such abuse Won't you let me see you smile, before I turn you loose I've given up the game I've got to leave The pot of gold is only make believe The treasure can't be found by men who search Who's gods are dead and whose queens are in the church We sat in an empty theater and we kissed I asked you please to cross me off your list My head tells me it's time to make a change But my heart is telling me, I love you but you're strange (Harmonica solo, same chords as verse) So one more time at midnight near the wall Take off your heavy makeup and your shawl Won't you descend from the throne from whence you sit And let me feel your love one more time, before I finally abandon it -ern. #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.

Could someone please substitute the Hendrix chords instead? Personally, that's my favourite version. Title: ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER (Bob Dylan) Am G F G Am (play it forever) There must be some kind of way out of here Said the joker to the thief There's too much confusion I can't get no relief Buisness men they drink my wine Plowmen dig my earth No reason to get excited The thief he kindly spoke There are many here among us Who feel that life is but a joke But you and I we've been through that And this is not our place So let us stop talking falsely now The hour's getting late While all the women came and went Barefoot servants too Outside in the cold distance A wildcat did growl And the wind began to howl All along the watchtower ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER - Bob Dylan ('John Wesley Harding' album) There must be some way out of here, Bm/A G A Bm said the joker to the thief, etc etc baby_ain.crd #----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE---------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.

For those of you scoring at home, this is piece number 5, not including a newer version of Rock Salt And Nails, which should supplant the previous version. Question marks indicate lyrics that I'm unsure of. Any help on that front would be greatly appreciated. (I'm also still missing pieces of "One Single River" and "I Don't Hurt Anymore", if there are any good samaritans out there.)

Fm I stepped forth from the shadows, to the marketplace, Db Eb Fm Merchants and thieves, hungry for power, my last deal gone down. Ab Eb Fm She's smelling sweet like the meadows where she was born, Db Eb Ab On midsummer's eve, near the tower. (Interlude) The captain waits above the celebration Fm Db Eb Sending his thoughts to a beloved maid Fm Ab Eb Whose ebony face is beyond communication. Fm Db Eb Ab The captain is down but still believing that his love will be repaid. Fm She was torn between Jupiter and Apollo. Fm Db Eb A messenger arrived with a black nightingale. Fm Ab Eb I seen her on the stairs and I couldn't help but follow, Fm Db Eb Ab Follow her down past the fountain where they lifted her veil. (Interlude) I stumbled to my feet. Ab Eb I rode past destruction in the ditches Fm Db Eb With the stitches still mending 'neath a heart-shaped tattoo. Fm Ab Eb Renegade priests and treacherous young witches Fm Db Eb Ab Were handing out the flowers that I'd given to you. Fm Where dog soldiers are reflected, Fm Db Eb The endless road and the wailing of chimes, Fm Ab Eb The empty rooms where her memory is protected, Fm Db Eb Ab Where the angels' voices whisper to the souls of previous times. (Interlude) Forty-eight hours later, the sun is breaking Fm Db Eb Near broken chains, mountain laurel and rolling rocks. Fm Ab Eb She's begging to know what measures he now will be taking Fm Db Eb Ab He's pulling her down and she's clutching on to his long golden locks. Fm I don't need your organization, I've shined your shoes, Db Eb I've moved your mountains and marked your cards Fm Ab Eb But Eden is burning, either get brave for elimination Fm Db Eb Ab Or else your hearts must have the courage for the changing of the guards. (Interlude) With tranquility and splendor on the wheels of fire Db Eb Fm But will offer no reward when her false idols fall Ab Eb Fm And cruel death surrenders with its pale ghost retreating Db Eb Ab Between the King and the Queen of Swords. Fm Ab Eb The "Interlude" (that the sax plays) is: Ab Eb Db Ab E -6-8-9-8-8~----6-6~----4-4~--(repeat 3 times)---\|\|-6p4-4---4~--\|\| B ------------------------------------------------\|\|-------6-----\|\| A ------------------------------------------------\|\|-------------\|\| E ------------------------------------------------\|\|-------------\|\| One word of note: It is much easier to play this song with a capo on the first fret (i.e. play Em G D Em C D... while the 1st fret is fretted).

This version is from Roger McGuinn's latest (5/23/95) live shows, per my recollection. The 12-string guitar is tuned down 1/2 step. The variations between Dylan and The Byrds are shown in brackets -- square for Dylan's lyrics that The Byrds/McGuinn left out and pointy for those they added.

G D They're painting the passports brown. A7 The beauty parlour's filled with sailors. G D The circus is in town. Here comes the blind commissoner. G D They've got him in a trance. A7 One hand's tied to the tightrope walker. G D The other is in his pants. G And the riot squad they're restless D They need some where to go. D A7 As lady and I look out tonight G D Cinderella she seem so easy. It takes on to know one she smiles. Then puts her hand in her back pocket, Betty davis style. Then in comes Romeo he's moaning. You Belong to me I believe. And someone says your in the wrong place my friend You better leave. And the only sound that's left After the ambulances go. Now the moon is almost hidden The stars are beginning to hide The fortune telling lady Has already taken all her things inside. All except for Cane and Able And the Hunch Back of Notre Dame Everyone is making love And the good samaritan he's dressing He's gettin ready for the show. He's going to the carinval Tonight on Desolation Row. Now Ophelia she's 'neath the window. For her I feel so afraid. On her twenty-second birthday She already is an old maid. To her death is quite romantic. She wears an iron vest. Her profession's her religion, Her sin is her lifelessness. And though her eyes are fixed upon Noah's great rainbow She spends her time peeking Into Desolation Row. Einstien disguised as Robin Hood With his memories in a trunk Passed this way an hour ago With his friend a jealous monk. He looked so frightful As he bummed a cigarette Then went off sniffing drain pipes And reciting the alphabet. No you would not think to look at him That he was famous long ago For playing electric violin Doctor filth he keeps his word Inside a leather cup But all his sexless patients Are trying to blow it up. Now his nurse a local looser She's in charge of the cyanaide hole And she also keeps the cards that read Have mercy on his soul. They all play on penny whistles You can hear them blow If you lean your head out far enough >From Desolation Row Across the street they've nailed the curtains They're gettin ready for the feast The phantom of the opera A perfect image of a priest They're spoon feedin Casonova To get him to feel more assured Then they'll killed him with self confidence After poisoning him with words And the phantom shouting to skinning girls Get outta her don't you know Casanova is just being punished For going to Desolation Row. Now at midnight all the agents And the superhuman crews That knows more than they do. Then they bring them to the factory Where the heart attack machines Is strapped across their shoulders And then the kerosene Is brought down from the castles By insurance men that go Check to see that nobody is escaping To Desolation Row Praise be to Nero's Neptune The Titanic sails at dawn And everybody shouting Which side are you on And Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot Fighting in the captains tower While calypso signers laugh at them And fishermen hold flowers Between the windows of the sea Where lovely mermaids flow And nobody has to think too much About Desolation Row Yes I received your letter yesterday About the time the door knob broke. When you asked me how I was Was that some kind of joke. All those people that you mention Yes I know them they're quite lame. I had to rearrange their faces And give them all another name. Right now I can't read too good Don't send me no more letters no. Not unless you mail them from Desolation Row. He said that's alright babe, I love you too. But we were Tangled Up In Blue. - Bob Dylan Subject: CRD: Dylan, Desolation Row D They're selling postcards of the hanging D G D They're painting the passports brown D A The beauty parlour's filled with sailors G D The circus is in town D Here comes the blind commissioner D G D They got him in a trance D A One hand is tied to the tightrope walker G D The other is in his pants D G And the riot squad they're restless D G They need somewhere to go D A As lady and I look out tonight A G D #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.

Yes, here the story of the Hurricane The man the authorities came to blame for something that he never done put in a prison cell but one time he could've been the champion of the world Four months later the ghetto's in flame Rubin's in South America fightin for his name while Arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game and the cops are puttin the screw to him looking for somebody to blame "Remember that murder that happened in a bar?" "Remember you said you saw the getaway car?" "You think you'd like to play ball with the law?" "Think it might have been that fighter that you saw running that night?" "Don't forget that you are white" Arthur Dexter Bradley said "I'm really not sure" Cops said "A poor boy like you could really use a break We got you for the motel job and were talking to your friend Bello Now you don't want to ave to go back to jail, be a nice fellow You'll be doin' society a favor That son of a bitch is brave and getting braver We want to put his ass in the stir We want to pin this trip murder on him He ain't ne Gentleman Jim" Rubin could take a man out with just one punch he never did like to talk about it all that much It's my work he'd say, I do it for pay and when it's over I'd just as soon go on my way up to some paradise where the trout streams flow and the air is nice and ride a horse along a trail but then they took him to the jail house where they try to make a man into a mouse All of Rubin's card were marked in advance The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance the judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the slums to the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum but to the black folks he was a crazy nigger no one doubted that he pulled the trigger and though they could not produce the gun the D.A. said he was the one who did the deed And the all-white jury agreed Rubin Carter was falsely tried the crime was murder "one", guess who testified? Bello and Bradley and the both badly lied and the newspapers all went along for the ride how can the life of such a man be in the palm of some fool's hand? to see him obviously framed couldn't help but be ashamed to live in a land where justice is a game Now all the criminal in their coats and their ties are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise while Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten foot cell and innocent man in a living hell that's the story of the Hurricane but it won't be over till they clear him name and give him back the time he's done put in a prison cell but one time he could've been the champion of the world %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Steve Vetter % I'm not the same % % [email protected] % As I was long ago % % Elon College % I've learned some new things % % Love School of Business % And I hope that it shows... % % Alpha Kappa Psi % - Neil Young % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% To some righteous king who wrote love songs, Am C,G Am G D Am C G I and I, in Creation where one's nature neither honors nor forgives, Am G D Am I and I, One said to the other, no mans sees my face and lives.

I said "I ain't got no money",He said "That ain't necessary". We set out that night for the cold in the North. I gave him my blanket, he gave me his word I said, "Where are we goin'?" He said we'd be back by the fourth. I said "That's the best news I ever heard." I was thinking about turquiose I was thinking about gold. I was thhinking about diamonds and the worlds biggest necklace. As we rode through the canyons, through the devilish cold, I was thinking about Isis, how sh thought I was so reckless. How she told me that one day we'd meet up again, And thing would be different the next time we wed. If I only hang on and just be her friend. I still can't remember all the best things she said. We came to the pyramids all embedde in ice. He said "There's a body I'm trying to find, If I carry it out it'll fetch a good price." Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind. The wind it was howling and the snow was outrageous. We chopped throught he night and we chopped throught he dawn. When he died I was hopong that it wasn't contagious, But I made up my mind that I had to go on. I broke into the tomb but the casket was empty There were no jewels no nothing, I felt I'd been had. When I saw that my partner was just being friendly, When I took up his offer I must-a been mad I picked up his body and I dragged it inside, Threw down into the hole and I put back the cover. I said a quick prayer and I felt satified Then I rode back to Isis just to tell her I love her. She was there in the meadow where the creek used to rise. Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed. I came in from the East with the sun in my eyes. I cursed one time then rode on ahead. She said "Where ya been?" I said "No place special." She said "You look different." I said "Well I guess." She said "You been gone." I said "That's only natural." She said "You gonna stay." I said "Well if you want me to yes." Isis oh Isis you're a mystical child What drives me to you is what drives me insane I still can remember the way that you smiled On the fifth day of May in the drizziling rain. it_aint_.crd #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.

I figured this out a few years back when I bought the video "Don't Look Back". You see Dylan detune and some fingerings when he plays "Baby Blue" for Donovan in the hotel. (By the way, in "Don't Look Back" Dylan capos 2, but Donovan's guitar is tuned 1/2 tone below concert, so capo 1 to play along with the video.) Subteranean Homesick Blues version Capo 4, top E tuned down to C Note-> CADGBe ++++++ C: 032010 Csus4: 033010 (add the little finger on the 4th string) G: 220000 (actually an Em7, but this is what he plays for G) F: 003211 Dm: 200231 (use the thumb to fret the 6th string) E: x22100 (or maybe E7: x22130) (Be sure to strum the 6th string to keep the distinctive droning C note going.) Intro: C and Csus4 (hammering onto the 4th string at the 2nd fret) G F C You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last G F C But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast Dm F C Yonder stands your orphan with his gun Dm F C Crying like a fire in the sun E(7) F G Look out the saints are coming through Dm F C And it's all over now, Baby Blue. The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense. Take what you have gathered from coincidence. The empty-handed painter from your streets Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets. This sky, too, is folding under you And it's all over now, Baby Blue. All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home. Your empty handed armies, they're all going home. The lover who just walked out your door Has taken all his blankets from the floor. The carpet, too, is moving under you And it's all over now, Baby Blue. Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you. Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.

Bb BbM7 Distant ships sailin' into the mist, Cm/Bb F/Bb You were born with a snake in both of your fists, Bb While a hurricane was blowing. Cm7 F Bb Freedom, just around the corner for you. Cm7 F Bb Eb But with truth so far off, what good would it do? Chorus Jokerman dance to the nightingale's tune. Bb F/A Eb/G Eb Bird fly high by the light of the moon. Bb/D Eb6 F Bb So swiftly the sun sets in the sky, You rise up and say goodbye to no one. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread, Both of their futures so full of dread, You don't show one. Shedding off one more layer of skin. Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within. Chorus You're a man of the mountains, you can walk on the clouds, Manipulator of crowds, You go to Sodom and Gomorrah, but what do you care? Ain't nobody there would want to marry your sister. A friend to the martyr, a friend to the woman of shame. You look into the fiery furnace - see the rich man without any name. Chorus Well the book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy, The law of the jungle and the sea, Are your only teachers. In the smoke of the twilight --- on a milk-white steed, Michelangelo indeed could have carved out your features. Resting in the fields far from the turbulent space. Half asleep neath the stars with a small dog licking your face. Chorus Well the (mafia?) man stalkin' the sick and the lame, Preacher man seeks the same, Who'll get there first is uncertain. Matchsticks and water cannons --- teargas, padlocks, Molotav cocktails and rocks, False-hearted judges dyin' in the webs that they spin. Only a matter of time til night comes steppin' in. Chorus It's a shadowy world - skies are slippery grey, A woman just gave birth to a prince today, And dressed him in scarlet. He'll put the priest in his pocket - put the blade to the heat, Take the motherless children off the street, And place them at the feet of a harlot. Oh Jokerman you know what he wants. Oh Jokerman you don't show any response. Chorus #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.

A slow melodic solo in Em pentatonic can really get the crowd into it. We also use it for guest vocalists, if we can't find any other song to do together. The problem has been that the tune is too short...with only two lyrics. So I've added two more lyrics to finish it off a little better. The tune was originally from a movie and is sung while the sheriff lay dying. So picture the good guy with his white hat on the dusty ground in his final moments of life...reflecting on the life he knew. The two extra verses are phrased exactly like the previous two. Forget about other versions of the tune you've heard...make it your own version...with your own style and flare.

Weiss" <[email protected]> This is my approximation of how this song is played: Masters of War -- Bob Dylan Am Am7 Am Am Am Am7 Am Come you masters of war Am Am Am7 Am You that build the big guns Am Am Am7 Am You that build the death planes Am Am Am7 Am You that build all the bombs Am Am Am7 Am You that hide behind walls Am Am Am7 Am You that hide behind desks Am C G F Am Am7 Am I just want you to know I can see through your masks And the song just continues in that vein for the rest of the verses: You that never have done nothin' but build to destroy You play with my world like it's your little toy You put a gun in my hand then you hide from my eyes Then you turn and run farther when the fast bullets fly Like Judas of old you lie and deceive A world war can't be won, and you want me to believe But I see through your eyes and I see through your brain Like I see through the water that runs down my drain You that fasten all the triggers for the others to fire Then you sit back and watch while the death count gets higher You hide in your mansions while the young people's blood Flows out of their bodies and gets buried in the mud You've thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled Fear to bring children into the world For threatening my baby, unborn and unnamed You ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins How much do I know to talk out of turn You might say that I'm young, you might say I'm unlearned But there's one thing I know, though I'm younger than you Even Jesus would never forgive what you do Let me ask you one question: is your money that good? Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could? I think you will find when your death takes its toll All the money you made won't ever buy back your soul And I hope that you die and your death will come soon I'll follow your casket through the pale afternoon And I'll watch while you're lowered into your death bed Then I'll stand over your grave till I'm sure that you're dead Corrections to lyrics or chords would be most welcome. -- "Do you ever get the feeling that the story's too damn real and in the present tense?

F G C F Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, C F G C In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you. F G C F Though I know that evenings empire has returned into sand, C F Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping. F G C F My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet, C F I have no one to meet, C F G And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship. My senses have been stripped, May hands can't feel to grip, My toes too numb to step, Wait only for my bootheels to be wandering. I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade, Into my own parade. Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it. Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun, It's not aimed at anyone, It's just escaping on the run, And but for the sky there are no fences facing. And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme, To your tambourine in time. It's just a ragged clown behind, I wouldn't pay it any mind, It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing. Take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind. Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, The haunted frightened trees, Out to the windy bench, Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. Yes to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, Silhouetted by the sea, Circled deep beneath the waves, Let me forget about today until tomorrow. ************************************************************************ * "Here's a song that I like to play. * * Print it out, play it and pass it around. * * If you like it, send me one of your favourites." * * * * Calgary, Alberta, Canada FidoNet: 1:134/160 * ********************************************************************** From: Harlan L Thompson <[email protected]> MR.

Oh what's the charge of how this came to be, Turn, turn, turn again, Manslaughter in the highest of degree. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. I sat down and wrote the best words I could write, Turn, turn, turn again, Explaining to the judge I'd be there on Wednesday night. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. Without a reply I left by the moon, Turn, turn, turn again, And was in his chambers by the next afternoon. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. Could ya tell me the facts? I said without fear, Turn, turn, turn again, That a friend of mine would get ninety-nine years. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. A crash on the highway flew the car to a field, Turn, turn, turn again, There was four persons killed and he was at the wheel. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. But I knew him as good as I'm knowin' myself, Turn, turn, turn again, And he wouldn't harm a life that belonged to someone else. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. The judge spoke out of the side of his mouth, Turn, turn, turn again, Sayin' the witness who saw he left little doubt. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. That may be true he's got a sentence to serve, Turn, turn, turn again, But ninety-nine years he just don't deserve. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. Too late, too late for his case it is sealed Turn, turn, turn again, His sentence is passed and it cannot be repealed. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. But he ain't no criminal and his crime it is none, Turn, turn, turn again, What happened to him could happen to anyone. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. And at that the judge jerked forward and his face it did freeze, Turn, turn, turn again, Sayin' "Could you kindly leave my office now, please." Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. Well his eyes looked funny and I stood up so slow, Turn, turn, turn again, With no other choice except but for to go. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind. I walked down the hallway and I heard his door slam, Turn, turn, turn again, I walked down the courthouse stairs and I could not understand. Turn, turn to the rain and the wind.

This makes the F#* into G* and so on for the rest of the progression. The line "But I would not feel so all alone" is also slightly off. The progression for that is moved up to a C* to start it. This means that the first chord is C* (10,11,10,x,x,x) the second chord is (11,10,11,10,x,x), the third chord is (10,8,10,9,x,x) and the fourth is (8,8,9,10,10). rainy_da.crd #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.

(verse with harp) Well Willie had a heart of gold and this I know is true He supported all his children and all their mothers too He wore no wings and fancy things that other gamblers wore He spread his money far and wide to help the sick and poor When you played your cards with Willie you never really knew Whether he was bluffin or whether he was true He won a fortune from a man who folded in his chair The man he left a diamond flush Willie didn�t even have a pair It was late one evening during a poker game A man lost all his money said Willie was to blame He shot poor Willie through the head which was a tragic fate Willie�s cards fell on the floor they were aces backed with eights So all you ramblin gamblers where ever you might be The moral of the story is very plain to see Make your money while you can before you have to stop Cause when you pull that dead man�s hand your gamblin days are up.

I happen to love the song (and some of the album, itself) to death. Anyway, what one should remember about this is that there are a lot of bass walk- downs in this song, and they are slow, as is the song. What I mean, for example, is that, say the song moves from C to Am, the bass goes C, B, A (like with what any normal bassist would do). I know you may be thinking, what does this have to do with chord progression that he is about to transcribe. Well, sometimes there is a feeling in the song that more than one chord is being played and that is normally the bass walking down. I may seem silly stating this but trust me... Or you could just ignore this whole paragraph (as would what I would do if I were reading it). Another thing about this transcription is that I had a very hard time understanding Mr. Dylan~s lyrics especially in the bridges. So the lyrics are not exactly what they appear to be. For a more better interpretation of the lyrics, one should buy or take out of the library the Bob Dylan lyric book (which was featured in that awful movie, you know what I~m talking about). Anyway: Am I can see the painted wagon Am Smell the tail of a dragon G F Can~t stand the suspense anymore Dm Am Can you tell me who to contact here, Senor? Instrumental: all of the verse chords with the cool mandolin C Em Well the last thing I remember before they stripped and kneeled F Am* Was a train load of fools born down in a Maganatic(?) field C Em The gypsy, where he broke a pike and a flashing ring F Am* He say, -Son this ain~t a dream no more, it~s the real thing- Am This place don~t make sense to me no more Dm Am Can you tell me what we~re waiting for, Senor? The song fades out and ends on the verse chords and that is about it. The Am* chords are played by striking the Am chord, then you release all your fingers so that you strike all open strings (except for the low E and A strings), then you strike back on the Am chord. It may not be accurate but that is how I make sense out of that part of the song). Feel free to email me and we can discuss why Bob Dylan rushes his lyrics while playing in concert, making his songs lose all of their bite. (Or maybe it's just me). Oh yeah, I must not disrespect the Spanish language by not nothing that there is a tilda over the "n" in Senor.

Oh Mama Can this really be th end To be stuck inside of Mobile With the Memphis blus again. Mona tried to tell me To stay far away from the train line. She said that all the railroad men Drink your blood like wine.

Grandpa died last week And now he's buried in the rock But everybody talk about How badly they were shocked. But me I expected it to happen I knew he'd lost control When he built a fire on main street And shot it full of holes.

Now the preacher looked so baffled When I asked him why he dressed With twenty pounds of headlines Stapled to his chest But he cursed when I proved to him Then I whispered not even you can hide. You see you're just like me I hope your satisfied Can this really be th end To be stuck inside of Mobile With the Memphis blus again.

Now the bricks lay on Grand Street Where the neon madmen climb They all fall there so perfectly. It all seems so well timed.

You better duck down the alleyway, lookin' for a new friend. E The man in the 'coonskin cap in a pigpen A Wants 11 dollar bills, you only got 10. Maggie calls fleetfoot (??) face full 'o black soot, Talking at the heat, put (??) plants in the bed, but (??) The phones tapped anyway, Maggie says the man he say, They must bust in early May, orders from the DA. Look out kid, don't matter what ch' ya did, Walk on your tiptoes, don't tie no bows Better stay away from those 'ho carry 'round a fire hose. Keep a clean nose, 'n wash of plain clothes, You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows.

Look out kid, your gonna get hit, by Losers, cheaters, six time users, hangin' round the theaters, Girl by the whrilpool's lookin' for a new fool, Don't follow leaders or watch the parkin' meters.

William Zantzinger, who at twenty-four years Owns a tobacco farm of six hundred acres With rich wealthy parents who provide and protect him And high office relations in the politics of Maryland, Reacted to his deed with a shrug of his shoulders And swear words and sneering, and his tongue it was snarling, In a matter of minutes on bail was out walking. But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears, Take the rag away from your face. Now ain't the time for your tears. Hattie Carroll was a maid of the kitchen. She was fifty-one years old and gave birth to ten children Who carried the dishes and took out the garbage And never sat once at the head of the table And didn't even talk to the people at the table Who just cleaned up all the food from the table And emptied the ashtrays on a whole other level, Got killed by a blow, lay slain by a cane That sailed through the air and came down through the room, Doomed and determined to destroy all the gentle. And she never done nothing to William Zantzinger. But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears, Take the rag away from your face. Now ain't the time for your tears. In the courtroom of honor, the judge pounded his gavel To show that all's equal and that the courts are on the level And that the strings in the books ain't pulled and persuaded And that even the nobles get properly handled Once that the cops have chased after and caught 'em And that the ladder of law has no top and no bottom, Stared at the person who killed for no reason Who just happened to be feelin' that way without warnin'. And he spoke through his cloak, most deep and distinguished, And handed out strongly, for penalty and repentance, William Zantzinger with a six-month sentence. Oh, but you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears, Bury the rag deep in your face. For now's the time for your tears. the_man_.crd #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.

D E7 A We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it E A And Louise holds a handful of rain, temptin' you to defy it D A Lights flicker from the opposite loft D A In this room the heat pipes just cough D The country music station plays soft A E7 But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off A D E7 A Just Louise and her lover so entwined D A E7 A D A And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind. A D E7 A In the empty lot where the ladies play blind man's bluff with the key chain D E7 A And the allnight girls, they whisper of escapades out on the "D" train E We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight A Ask himself if it's him or them that's realy insane D A Louise, she's allright, she's just near D A She's delicate and seems like the mirror D But she just makes it all too concice and too clear A E7 The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face D A E7 A D A Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place. A D E7 A Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously D E7 A He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously E A And when bringing her name up He speaks of a farewell kiss to me D A He's sure got a lotta gall D A to be so useless and all D Muttering small talk at the wall A E7 while I'm in the hall A D E7 A How can I explain? Oh, it's so hard to get on D A E7 A D A And these visions of Johanna, they kept me up past the dawn. A D E7 A Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial D E7 A Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while E A But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues You can tell by the way she smiles D A See the primitive wallflower freeze D A When the jellyfaced women all sneeze D A E7 Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze, I can't find my knees" A D E7 A Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule D A E7 A D A But these visions of Johanna they make it all seem so cruel. A D E7 A The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him Sayin' "Name me someone that's not a parasite D E7 A and I'll go out and say a prayer for him." But like Louise E always says, "Ya can't look at much, can ya man?" As she, herself, pre A And Madonna, she still has not showed D D We see this empty cage now corrode D A Where her cape of the stage once had flowed D A The fiddler, he now steps to the road D A He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed D A E7 On the back of the fish truck that loads While my conscience explodes A D E A The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain D A E7 A And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain.

What has been changed since the previous posting of the FAQ (7 July 1995)? A new system for identifying changes is being tested for this outing of the FAQ. Any line which is different has as its first character "#". (This particular section is exempt :-) Part 1: - added details of a mail address tester to "3. Are you certain your e-mail address works?" Part 2: - Added the new Wanted Man contact address to "1. Where can I buy Bob Dylan collectors' items?" - Added URL of Library of Congress library system to "2. What books about Dylan's life and music are available?" Many thanks to Ron Lamers for a significant number of corrections and additions. 1. Who is Bob Dylan? ==================== Bob Dylan is a singer, a guitar player, a song writer and a recording artist. Born Robert Allen Zimmerman in Hibbing Minnesota in 1941, his earliest circulating recordings date from 1958! His earliest recordings on an unofficial bootleg LP date from 1960, his first commercial release dates from 1962. He continues to write, record and perform to this day. 2. What is rec.music.dylan? =========================== Welcome! This Usenet newsgroup is devoted to the discussion of Bob Dylan, his music, and things Dylan-related. We welcome your constructive comments on nearly any issue, even if it's only tangentially associated with Bob Dylan. There is no official Dylan fan club, so small packs of Dylan fans band together to stay informed and carry on general discussion. This particular Usenet newsgroup was founded mid-1989 by Tom Buckley. Sometimes it seems that all we're interested in are upcoming tour dates and clarification of fact regarding old recordings, but there is often very interesting discussion of Dylan's lyrics themselves, a reason that no doubt many of you read this newsgroup. If you don't see the sort of discussion you want, you're encouraged to bring it up yourself! Many people criticise the content and tenor of postings on rec.music.dylan but few praise those they like. If you see a posting which is just what you like to see why not e-mail the poster privately and say so. Many good posters stop posting because they say they do not know if anyone is reading or liking what they do. The way to shape rec.music.dylan to what you want is to encourage what you like to see, and to contribute good postings yourself too! 3. Are you certain your e-mail address works? ============================================= 98% of new posters who comment that nobody has answered a query they made on rec.music.dylan turn out to have displayed an e-mail address that does not function. This is so common that it is very unlikely a correspondent answering your query will do anything once they see that mail to you bounces. One of the # best ways to test your address is to send mail to the "robot" at # [email protected] You should be sent two replies. If this # does not work then contact the postmaster at your site. 4. Is there a rec.music.dylan etiquette? ======================================== You should already be familiar with Usenet etiquette. If not, the newsgroups to read are news.newusers.questions and news.announce.newusers. A particularly useful document is "Emily Postnews Answers Your Questions on Netiquette" by Mark Moraes <[email protected]>, stored at rtfm.mit.edu in a document called "part1" in the directory /pub/usenet/news.answers/usenet/emily-postnews/ As with all newsgroups, the best recommendation is for you to sit back and read for a while before you make your first posting. That way you can get a proper feel for the newsgroup. Then you will see which postings you think are valuable and which are wasting space or preventing good discussion. rec.music.dylan is not moderated, so within reason anything goes. However, certain types of postings are generally frowned upon. These include: o Tirades against other readers of the newsgroup for their opinions. o Failure to edit subject heading when replying via the digestified mailing list [HWY61-L, see later]. Please ensure you edit the subject line when posting a followup. Anyone seeing a posting headed: SUBJECT: Re: HWY61-L Digest - 5 Mar 1995 may well choose to ignore it altogether. o Lists of favourite songs/albums, including Top Tens. This is a discussion that reappears gradually more frequently as more and more people discover rec.music.dylan. It is hard to imagine a posting with less value and information content than: My top 20 favourite Bob Dylan albums, in order of preference, are: 3. The Times They Are A-Changin' . 20. The Basement Tapes Tell me what yours are! If you are interested in lists of favourite song or album titles then please do NOT post them to rec.music.dylan. You are instead directed to the ALLMUSIC GUIDE [see later for details] for the views of past and present readers on this issue. Polls on favourite albums and songs are already available for hundreds of artists, including Bob Dylan. And should you wish to add your vote to those already cast then you are free to do so. [A Web page has been set up for this very task! - see later]. This is NOT to say constructive discussions about WHY you place certain songs in such high regard are not of interest. Far from it - what are we all here for if not to discuss the songs? o Using rec.music.dylan as a easy substitute for personal research. There are many resources available at your local library and over the Internet (via FTP, GOPHER, the World Wide Web and Telnet). The numerous Dylan-related areas are detailed later on in this FAQ. You are strongly encouraged to consult this extensive material before asking on the newsgroup. For example, instead of asking hundreds of people for the setlist for 12 November 1981, you could simply look it up yourself in Olof Bjorner's 1981 yearly summary (via FTP, GOPHER or the WEB) or the three or four books available at your library. If the research material proves inadequate then of course you should post your question to the newsgroup stating this is so. In such cases you are much more likely to get a response! [See later for instructions on how to access this information via the Internet]. o Bootlegs. From time to time someone posts a request for contact details of bootleg dealers. Answers to these questions should be sent by private e-mail only. To post full details to the very public forum of rec.music.dylan is to put the dealers at risk. This may be an hysterical over-reaction to the real situation, but is it not best to avoid Bob Dylan's work being the most likely target when those greedy copyright lawyers finally hit the Internet in force? We all know Bob Dylan always says yes when his lawyers ask him if they should proceed, be it a computer company, a transit authority, or a ... The objection to the posting of full trade listings is more along the lines of bandwidth wastage. If you wish to set up a trade you are best advised to send a polite e-mail message [see later]. o Lists of names of other artists in which you are also interested. This thread began a very long time ago and still odd postings appear on the subject. For those who may be interested Steven Zawid [email protected] conducted a major poll on favourite other artists and he would be interested to hear from you in e-mail as he builds up his statistics. Steven asks that you include one choice as to who your favourite non-Dylan artist is. 5. How do I access rec.music.dylan? =================================== If you have no access to Usenet News but you do have Internet access then you could join a FreeNet in order to make use of free Usenet News access. For example: telnet yfn2.ysu.edu username: visitor follow the instructions for becoming a registered user and then read rec.music.dylan whenever you please. The majority of readers access this group through a newsreader (such as rn, trn, tin or the like on Unix systems), but there is also a digestified format that is sent to many others via email. If you'd rather read in that format (a long email sent to you once or twice daily) this information will be of use to you: -- "HWY61-L Digest". The mailing list is owned and maintained by Maureen LeBlanc. (If you experience any problems with the list or have any questions then e-mail Maureen at [email protected]) To post an article to rec.music.dylan you need to use this address: [email protected] This is the ONLY address via which your messages will appear on rec.music.dylan and the mirroring Digest. There is a third address of which users of the Mailing list need to be aware. [email protected] It is via this address that users communicate with the automated LISTSERV to subscribe, unsubscribe and alter options. ALL commands should be sent to THIS address. Leave the 'subject' blank and on the first line of the body of the message type your command. (If you experience problems try omitting your ".sig" because the Listserv may be trying to interpret it as commands.) Here are the various commands you can send (all to the above address): (a) To receive a help file on how to work with the listserv: HELP (b) To subscribe to the mailing list: SUBSCRIBE HWY61-L firstname lastname (c) To unsubscribe from the mailing list: SIGNOFF HWY61-L (d) The default setting is to send out the list in digestified format. If you would prefer to be sent rec.music.dylan as-it-happens, ie. each posting is sent to you as an individual message, then issue this command: SET HWY61-L MAIL To return to digestified format, issue: SET HWY61-L DIGEST (e) If you wish to suspend receipt of messages from the list for any period of time you do not need to unsubscribe. Simply set your selected option to 'no mail' by issuing: SET HWY61-L NOMAIL To resume delivery again, issue: SET HWY61-L DIGEST -- If you lack Usenet news access and want to post (without having to subscribe to the mailing list), simply e-mail your posting to: [email protected] ^ ^ N.B. - NOT . or _ / hyphens not full stops or underscores! 6. Glossary of terms and acronyms common to this newsgroup. =========================================================== All areas of knowledge develop jargon and acronyms which inevitably serve to keep outsiders out and to confuse newcomers. Medical doctors complicate the simplest things with needlessly difficult terms and abbreviations, computer experts often make the easy inaccessible to newcomers with obscure terms and abbreviations by trying to 'simplify' communications, management consultants... Well, you get the picture. People with a serious and debilitating Dylan habit can also develop these tendencies. Watch for the following obscure terms... #Dylan = The name of the Dylan channel on irc. BoB = Blonde on Blonde [1966] [not a typo for "Bob"!] BotT = Blood on the Tracks [1974] BIABH = Bringing It All Back Home [1965] boot = bootleg bootleg = circulating copy of officially unreleased material in any form. The term is probably derived from 'bootleg' liquor, which was sometimes smuggled in bottles strapped to one's leg during Prohibition in the United States, 1918-1933. Bootleg Series = The Bootleg Series 1961-1991, Rare and Unreleased, Volumes 1-3 [1991] - not to be confused with 'bootleg' above, this is an official release that reveals many songs and performances from throughout Dylan's career that were previously available only on bootleg media. The liner notes of this boxed set mention that further volumes would be released, but no reliable source has been able to determine if and when this might actually happen... BTW = By the way... EDLIS = Exchange of Dylan Lyrics - Internet Service [see question 8, below, for more information on EDLIS] GAIBTY = Good As I Been To You [1992] H61R = Highway 61 Revisited [1965] Hurricane = The lead-off single from Desire [1976], which tells Dylan's rather loose interpretation of the murder trial of boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter; Carter is today a free man in Canada after having endured a convoluted series of mistrials and legal wrangling. IMO = In my opinion... IMHO = In my humble opinion... irc = Internet Relay Chat, an international live real-time conferencing system with a channel called #Dylan. [see question #9, below] JWH = John Wesley Harding [1967] This album (and its title track) were mis-named after outlaw John Wesley Hardin. Dylan's song has very little to do with the story of the real Hardin; instead, it's basically just a spin-off of Woody Guthrie's "Pretty Boy Floyd." Some Dylan fans note the religious bent of this album and claim that the initials 'JWH' really refer to the Judeo-Christian deity... Krogsgaard = Krogsgaard's 1991 reference book, Positively Bob Dylan [listed below in question 10c]. A Krogsgaard number would be in a form such as [7/201]. This refers to item seven in the Krogsgaard listing for event 201. Badly addicted rec.music.dylan readers can be told such a number and then immediately sing the relevant item without reference to the Krogsgaard book itself! pirate = Illegal copy of officially released material. Also known as a "counterfeit". smiley = An unusual punctuation device, presumably employed only by computer-users, which looks like a sideways smiley-face: :-) A smiley usually means that a comment or article has been written in jest, and should be read accordingly. A common variant is ;-) with the 'winking' eye. There are many, many variants on the smiley, and most are used to represent the flairs of spoken language that are often hard to perceive in text. :-( tape tree = A 'pyramid' method of distributing tapes organized by someone with a good or unusual tape that begs to be circulated. That person posts an announcement to the newsgroup, asking people to send email to him to sign up. He collects the names of those interested, and creates a 'tree' such that no one has to make an excessive number of copies, and people with better tape decks make copies for those without, etc. The original tape is the 'seed'. Those who receive copies from the seed and make further copies are 'branches', and those who receive copies from branches but don't copy for anyone else are the 'leaves'. Sometimes a person who makes copies is called a 'parent' and one who receives copies is a 'child'. Each person who receives tapes is expected to send tapes of other events in return to their branch. If blanks are sent in lieu of recorded tapes, the person sending blanks is expected to send double the number of blank tapes to recorded tapes. A less common method is that the person sendng blanks is expected to pay postage for both the tapes that sent and the ones received. If trading with a DAT collector who is supplying you with an analogue cassette, one blank DAT is adequate double compensation should they not want any blank analogue cassettes from you. T-999 = Numbers like these are Townsend numbers. Townsend number = A three figure number identifying a specific bootleg CD as cited by Phill Townsend in his Strangers And Prophets [listed above], or as cited in Isis [listed above]. UTRS = Under The Red Sky [1990] WGW = World Gone Wrong [1993] WWW = World-Wide-Web [see question 5, below] ZZ = someone used to the vi editor in Unix posting from a different and unfamiliar editor trying to end their posting... 7. Is there a Bob Dylan discography available online, or some way to order Dylan CDs via Internet? ==================================================================== It is beyond the scope of this document to give a true discography for Bob Dylan, but here is a list of the standard U.S. release full- length Bob Dylan albums: Title Released CD Order # ===== ======== ========== Bob Dylan March 1962 CK 8579 The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan May 1963 CK 8786 The Times They Are A-Changin' January 1964 CK 8905 Another Side of Bob Dylan August 1964 CK 8993 Bringing it All Back Home March 1965 CK 9128 Highway 61 Revisited August 1965 CK 9189 Blonde on Blonde May 1966 CK 841 Greatest Hits March 1967# CK 9463 John Wesley Harding December 1967 CK 9604 Nashville Skyline April 1969 CK 9825 Self-Portrait June 1970 C2K 30050 New Morning October 1970 CK 30290 Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 November 1971# C2K 31120 Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid July 1973 CK 32460 Dylan November 1973^ CK 32747 Planet Waves January 1974 CK 37637 Before the Flood June 1974' C2K 37661 Blood on the Tracks January 1975 CK 33235 The Basement Tapes June 1975* C2K 33682 Desire January 1976 CK 33893 Hard Rain September 1976 CK 34349 Street Legal June 1978 CK 35453 At Budokan July 1978'~ C2K 36067 Slow Train Coming August 1979 CK 36120 Saved June 1980 CK 36553 Shot of Love August 1981 CK 37496 Infidels November 1983 CK 38819 Real Live December 1984' CK 39944 Empire Burlesque June 1985 CK 40110 Biograph October 1985# C3K 38830 Knocked Out Loaded August 1986 CK 40439 Down in the Groove May 1988 CK 40957 Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1 October 1988 Warner Bros. 9 25796-1 Dylan and the Dead February 1989' CK 45056 Oh Mercy September 1989 CK 45281 Under the Red Sky September 1990 CK 46794 Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3 October 1990 Warner Bros. 9 26324-1 Bootleg Series Vols. 1-3 March 1991@ C3T 47382 Good As I Been to You October 1992 CK 53200 World Gone Wrong October 1993 CK 57590 Greatest Hits III Unplugged April 1995 478374 2 (European) This is NOT intended to be a complete discography by any means. Check the discography file at ftp.cs.pdx.edu for more details on Bob Dylan releases available on compact disc. [see question 5 for help]. Notes: ' Live album # 'Greatest Hits' collection - most songs previously released ^ Recorded in 1970, outtakes from Self-Portrait * Recorded in 1967! ~ This is the Japanese release date - U.S. release was December 1978 @ Collection of previously unreleased material spanning 1961-1991... Also of interest are the 30th Anniversary Tribute Concert double-CD set; and Masterpieces, a triple-CD import collection that contains a few songs not available elsewhere on CD. To actually order CDs online, you can try the Compact Disc Connection, a California-based mail-order company. telnet cdconnection.com No password is necessary. Once you're logged in, the menus are fairly self-explanatory, and you can make purchases with your credit card. If you have a Web browser such as Netscape, Mosaic or Lynx and wish to look at CD shops on the Internet, use these URLs: ftp://netcom11.netcom.com/pub/howells/dylan.html http://cdnow.com There have been several 'best album' polls done on the music newsgroups - the most comprehensive were the 'Usenet Artist Polls' and are available by anonymous FTP from ftp.uwp.edu in /pub/music/uap (many polls done on individual artists, not just Dylan). The Dylan albums most frequently recommended by readers of r.m.d are _Highway 61 Revisited_, _Blonde on Blonde_, _Blood on the Tracks_, and _The Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3_, although you'll find staunch fans of nearly every album... The Dylan you might like depends more on you than on the opinions of others. You could describe in reasonable detail your musical, political, religious and sexual tastes, post that on rec.music.dylan, and ask for advice... Additional material may be found at the various FTP archives [see question 5, below]. 8. Where can I find lyrics, tablature and other Bob Dylan information via Internet? ===================================================================== There are three archive sites from which information regarding Bob Dylan may be obtained by FTP [If the term "ftp" is meaningless to you then ask a local computer guru to show you what to do...]: ftp.cs.pdx.edu (Portland State University) ftp.uwp.edu (University of Wisconsin, Parkside) ftp.nevada.edu (University of Nevada) Olof's yearly summaries of Bob Dylan concerts and recordings, plus a number of transcribed interviews, concert/tape reviews, and similar documents are available by anonymous FTP from ftp.cs.pdx.edu, in the directory /pub/dylan, and are maintained by Trent Fisher. This site originated as a replacement to Anthony Kapolka's archives from the early days of rec.music.dylan, but now includes all of Olof's archives and other recent files. Lyrics to a limited number of Bob Dylan songs, plus some guitar tabs and other information by be found by anonymous FTP from ftp.uwp.edu, in pub/music/artists/d/dylan.bob. Guitar tablature to many of Dylan's songs is available by anonymous FTP from the alt.guitar.tab archives at ftp.nevada.edu, in /pub/guitar/d/Dylan.Bob, and also /pub/guitar/d/Bob.Dylan (the separate directories are probably due to an oversight or change). An anonymous FTP session begins like this - at your prompt, type: ftp ftp.uwp.edu [or whatever site you'll be getting files from] Enter 'anonymous' (without the quotes) when prompted for a login name, give your E-mail address as the password. Use either 'ls' or 'dir' and 'cd' to find your way to the proper directory. There are also a number of Dylan-related World Wide Web (WWW) pages. If you do not know what WWW is then you are best advised to ask a friend or computer technician at your site. You will need appropriate software (known as Web Browsers). Some examples: Netscape, Mosaic and Lynx (a text only version). WWW PAGES DEDICATED TO BOB DYLAN http://reality.sgi.com/employees/howells/dylan.html - "Bringing It All Back Home Page" (John Howells) - Contains tour dates, setlists and concert reviews, yearly chronicles from 1960 through 1993 (updated yearly), Frequently Asked Questions about Dylan and the internet, EDLIS Dylan Covers listing, etc. http://bob.nbr.no - "Expecting Rain" (Karl Erik Anderson) - The Bob Dylan Who's Who, The Dylan Atlas, Jokerman, 1995 setlists and concert reports, pictures, some sound clips, this FAQ, list of EDLIS agents, etc. http://www.ncl.ac.uk/~n246543/ - "Ragged Clown" (Ben Taylor) - Contains interviews, old postings to the newsgroup rec.music.dylan, EDLIS Civil Rights articles on "Hattie Carroll" etc., links to all Dylan areas on the Web, etc. http://www.music.sony.com/Music/ArtistInfo/BobDylan.html - Sony's Bob Dylan page. Sparse but worth checking every now and then. http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~gv/project_home.html - "Broken Words" (Giuseppe Valetto) - A textual analysis of Bob Dylan's lyrics http://www.cen.uiuc.edu/~bdonalds/bob.html - "Bob Dylan's 15th Dream" (Bryan Donaldson) - You can vote for your favourite albums and songs here, etc. http://www-bprc.mps.ohio-state.edu/cgi-bin/hpp?bobby.html - "Bobby Page" (Tim Dixon) - Currently under construction.. ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/mi/michel/Dylan/Dylan.html - Graphics etc. (Steve Michel) http://www.well.com/www/yudel/Dylan.html - Bob Dylan: Tangled up in Jews (Larry Yudelson) DYLAN-RELATED PAGES: ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/brooklyn/WWW/People/JackKerouac.html - Jack Kerouac home page (Marc Stein) http://pubweb.parc.xerox.com/digitrad - "Digital Tradition" - This is a searchable text database of folk lyrics. It is updated every few months and, as of April '94, contained over 4500 items. The latest edition is Oct '94. There are countless Dylan-related songs in this archive. - People can download their own copy of the entire archive for their Mac, PC, or a plain ASCII version: ftp.parc.xerox.com (California) or (PC version only) send three formatted HD disks (5-1/4 or 3-1/2 inch) and a STAMPED, SELF- ADDRESSED mailer to Dick Greenhaus at: The Digital Tradition E-Mail: [email protected] http://lcweb.loc.gov/homepage/lchp.html - Library of Congress. http://www.cm.cf.ac.uk/Movies/ - Internet Movie Database - Can look up films such as "Don't Look Back" and, as with many of these sources, you can add information to improve what they list based on your expertise or reference books... GOPHER SITE: gopher://allmusic.ferris.edu/00/pop/d/dy/dylan.b - All Music Guide. - This is the location of the Bob Dylan entry. It includes a mini- bio', list of albums and their tracks, reviews and ratings. If you cannot find transcribed music online, you should be able to find music to all the released albums from good music stores and suppliers. The most recommended book source is "Lyrics 1962-1985". The lyrics 'database' on "Highway 61 Interactive" CDROM, released 1995, covers virtually all of the lyrics from this book, plus all albums up to 1995. Many songbooks can also be purchased, for example the book for Good As I Been to You is available from Special Rider Music Sales, 8/9 Frith St., London W1V 5TZ, England. 9. Is there some way that I can get lists of Bob Dylan concert tapes and recordings from past years? ==================================================================== There is currently one electronic document that makes a good reference guide, plus one essential book: #1 - If you've got a little disk space to spare [approx. 1.5 megabytes], you can download Olof's year-by-year Bob Dylan archive - which lists Dylan's public appearances and recordings, gives handy reference tables of songs played on tour, and even lists recommended tapes by tour! The best part is that it's free for your own personal use. Don't try printing it out unless you've got the time & ribbons - the combined total of all the files would be on the order of 600 pages... How do you get it? ftp ftp.cs.pdx.edu, in the /pub/dylan directory, the 1960.Z through 1993.Z files (they are compressed). #2 - There is a book called "Positively Bob Dylan" by Michael Krogsgaard (this book is frequently referred to simply as 'Krogsgaard' on this newsgroup). This tome numbers Dylan's circulating performances and lists the songs performed at each and every known circulating Bob Dylan recording through early 1991. There are always gaps and changes as new tapes surface, but this book is essential to the serious collector! It provides a fast, easy reference for identifying tapes and so on. The main disadvantage of such a serious book is that it costs about US$55. See item 11c below for more information. There will shortly be a third option: #3 - If you have an IBM PC compatible "DylanBase" may be of interest. This is a DOS computer program designed by Keith Charles Marsh, with data collated by Chris Cooper. Its objective is the same as Krogsgaard's book, to detail all circulating (and uncirculating) recordings. Regular updates are planned to maintain the accuracy and completeness of the database. To find out more you can purchase a demo disk, the price of which is fully refundable against the final product. For this or other information write to: Keith Charles Marsh, 17 Stanley Road, Wellingborough, NN8 1DY, ENGLAND. At time of writing (4 July 1995) the release of "DylanBase" is "imminent". 10. When and where will Bob Dylan be performing next? ===================================================== Since official announcements from Dylan's publicity office regarding tour dates are rare, we have to rely on local people to look for advertisements or call ticket agencies and then to inform the rest of us. If you hear of an upcoming concert in your area, please tell us! Set-lists from shows that you have seen recently are also appreciated, even if you don't know the titles of all the songs that were played. Tour dates are usually posted piece-meal to the newsgroup, and sometimes these postings will contain conflicting or confusing information. If your local ticket agency has no knowledge of a concert date that you saw announced here, don't give up hope. Agencies such as TicketMaster frequently do not know about particular shows until a few days before they are authorized to sell tickets for that show. Some concert dates start out as rumors and never materialize, but many rumors do become fact. Be patient. There is no mail-order for Bob Dylan concert tickets. There are also Dylan hotlines you can ring on the telephone for the latest information on Bob Dylan events: USA: 303-243-8025 (The Rolling Tomes Hotline - the operator will ask you to enter the "hotline access number" located in the lower right corner of the back cover of the current Rolling Tomes catalogue. So you must either have seen the catalogue or have contact with someone who has... See question 10, below. A touch-tone telephone is required. The recording is updated at least weekly, more often when news warrants it.) UK: The Homer 'Warmline', maintained by Andrew Muir. Although this used to be subscription-only, it is now open to all, free of charge. The number is 0171 385 6119 (if dialling from the UK) or +44 171 385 6119 (if dialling from abroad). UK: Wanted Man offers a hotline service to Telegraph subscribers [see part two of the FAQ for subscription details]. The EDLIS Tours & Tickets agent compiles all the above info and posts updated tour schedules to rec.music.dylan. 11. What is EDLIS? ================== The Exchange Dylan Lyrics - Internet Service is an Internet wide conspiracy to make available Dylan lyrics for the purposes of research and/or private study. Lyrics available are restricted to a reasonable proportion. Any copying to evade purchase is wrong. EDLIS consists of a number of loosely affiliated individuals who have chosen to horde and distribute Bob Dylan information. This service includes, but is not limited to, information regarding: Bob Dylan song lyrics, versions of Bob Dylan songs performed by other artists, bootleg recordings, and tape trees. If you post a request for specific lyrics (or for detailed boot CD information) on rec.music.dylan you might find an EDLIS agent answers your needs magically in your e-mail box. In return, EDLIS is always in need of transcribed lyrics and information on compact discs, old and new. If you are able to type in or scan Dylan lyrics not presently available on the Internet, please do so - the only reason that EDLIS sends you anything is because others have contributed in the past! 12. What if I want to talk about Dylan on-line at all hours? ============================================================ If no one in the same room as you wants to chat about Dylan 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year you might think you have an insatiable desire. But there is relief! IRC! Internet Relay Chat. On Internet Relay Chat there is always an international live real-time Dylan conference - usually in English - waiting for you to join it. At your Unix prompt type: irc and once irc is up and running type: /join #Dylan and what you type after that will be seen by all the others on that channel. If all is quiet simply wait until the lull ends or learn how to invite others in (/invite), change the topic (/topic) and so on. Many arrange to meet at #dylan by prior arrangement through e-mail, setting a time to rendezvous. Bear in mind the time zones - discussion tends to ebb and flow with New Zealanders and Australians starting the day, as they begin to flag Europeans join, and Americans are last to come in, though some #dylan people keep very odd hours indeed. Treat #dylan like a Paris street cafe. If you want to be certain that stimulating, interesting people are there when you are there, bring them with you. If Bob Dylan is performing in a country you can try to see who is on from that country, such as Japan: /who .jp And then use /invite to invite in unsuspecting irc-ers and ask them about media coverage, whether they are going to the concerts or know anyone who is, will they be taking a DAT recorder with them, etc etc etc. As with all esoteric computer matters, if the command irc is not available on your computer, simply ask a local computer guru how to ftp and compile what you need. You could also logon by telnet to a limited version of irc: telnet sci.dixie.edu 6668 Here are some other public access telnet sites for IRC on the Undernet, which is NOT the main irc but will give you a feel for a limited irc network: telnet wildcat.ecn.uoknor.edu 6677 (end part 1 of 2) ****************************************************************** ***************************************************************** Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), part 2 of 2 for newsgroup rec.music.dylan Please email corrections and suggestions to: [email protected] ******************************************************************** Copyright 1994, 1995 Adam K.

Where can I buy Bob Dylan collectors' items? =============================================== Some of us have the good fortune to live in places that have an adequate supply of record stores, well informed collectors with the latest gab on your favorite artists, and record shows; if you aren't in such a location, you may feel out of touch. Don't fret! Even the most avid record hounds use mail-order as a reliable way to purchase books, posters, and memorabilia (not to mention information regarding new records, tours, etc...) Here are a few recommended sources: U.S.: Rolling Tomes - P.O. Box 1943, Grand Junction, Colorado 81502. Phone: 303-245-4315 Monday through Friday 10-6 Mountain time, 24 hr. fax: 303-243-8025. They accept Mastercard, Visa, checks, money orders, and international money orders drawn from a U.S. bank in U.S. funds. This is an essential source for Dylan fans in the United States and across the world - their inventory covers everything from back issues of fan magazines to books to records and videotapes. Rolling Tomes is also the distributor for several Dylan magazines, namely Homer, Isis, Look Back, On the Tracks, Rolling Thunder, and Telegraph [see question 12 for details and subscription rates]. U.S.: Goldmine Magazine - 700 E. State St., Iola, WI 54990-0001. This is a collectors forum with advertising from record dealers all over the world, published biweekly. They will send a free trial issue to you if you request one... Goldmine contains loads of mail-order information, so you'll need a few hours poring over an issue (often with a magnifying glass) to sort it all out. U.K.: My Back Pages - P.O. Box 117, Carlisle CA1 2UL. Accepts pounds sterling or US dollars by check, postal money order, or international money order. Another good source for books, and also distributes the magazine Isis. # U.K.: (New address!) Wanted Man: PO Box 307, Richmond, Surrey TW10 5AQ Distributes The Telegraph magazine. 2. What books about Dylan's life and music are available? ========================================================= The number of publications about Bob Dylan continues to grow rapidly: Here is a three-part overview of some of the better-known books, divided by subject material. This is only the tip of the iceberg - better to check a catalog or your local libraries and bookstores for greater detail. If you read the following list and think you might want to read many of these books but could never afford them, do not despair! Inform your local library of the vast, untapped multitude of popular music resources by recommending some of these titles to them. Do not be afraid; most librarians do not bite. After all, what good is a public library that does not take suggestions from its public? These books are, for the most part, well-written commentary on the life and music of one of the most significant popular songwriters of this century, and are a worthy addition to a library collection... Also, library catalogues will help you get an overview of published monographs related to Bob Dylan. A good first catalogue to check is found in California, and access is easy if you already have full Internet access. telnet melvyl.ucop.edu If this union catalogue proves inadequate investigate the "use" command by typing in "help use" from within melvyl. # Another source to check is the Library of Congress. There is a # good z39.50 www-gateway to locis (lcc) on: # http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/mums2.html If the hundreds of free online public access catalogues available on the Internet are not enough for you there are more sophisticated sources such as CURL, OCLC, First Search, RLIN, UTLAS, NACSIS and the like... But you will need a password and someone must pay the bill! -- 2(a). Bob Dylan biographies =========================== Bob Dylan has never been accused of over-publicizing his private life. Consequently, you will find that most of the biographies concerning him are rather spotty for large periods of time, and often contradict one another on important details. Most of the older biographies focus heavily on the years up to 1966, and are pretty thin from there onward. _Bob Dylan: An Intimate Biography_ by Anthony Scaduto, New York: New American Library, 1979 [originally published 1972]. 366 p.

Are there magazines about Dylan to which I could subscribe? ============================================================== There are several highly regarded periodicals devoted to Dylan's career - again, this is not a complete listing, but merely a guide: The Telegraph (UK - Wanted Man, P.O. Box 22, Romford, Essex RM1 2RF, 3 times a year, subscriptions currently $45/year via Rolling Tomes) is the oldest and perhaps best known Dylan fan magazine. Isis (UK - P.O. Box 132, Coventry, West Midlands CV3 5RE, bi-monthly, subscriptions currently $64.95/yr. via Rolling Tomes) is excellent for information regarding bootleg audio & video material plus a comprehensive guide to Dylan's constant touring. ICE (US, P.O. Box 3043, Santa Monica, CA 90408, monthly, subscribe directly for $30/yr in North America, $40/yr elsewhere) is a newsletter that provides information on new CDs, re-issued CDs, underground CDs, and planned releases, all from reliable sources. Again, not a Dylan magazine, but usually contains something regarding Dylan CDs... ICE can be reached by email for questions and comments regarding compact discs, as well as subscription information, at: [email protected] Goldmine (US, 700 E. State St, Iola, WI 54990, (715) 445-2214, FAX (715) 445-4087. Subscriptions $35/yr.) This is a record and CD collectors' publication, published twice a month, known for being a forum for bootleg buyers and sellers. Goldmine has phased out detailed advertisements from all but the largest dealers, including a crackdown on classified ads. This includes tapes and videos, but not CD's. Subscriptions are $35 for a year; you can call and order by Visa/MC, or mail them a check or money order. If you call them they will send you a free sample copy. On The Tracks: The Unauthorized Bob Dylan Magazine (US - published by Rolling Tomes [address above], quarterly, US subscriptions currently $24.95/yr, or $39.95/yr to also receive the monthly newsletter, Series of Dreams) Features interviews, columns by well-known Dylan commentators, such as Paul Williams, and importantly, includes the Rolling Tomes catalog within its pages. The companion newsletter covers the gritty details such as concert dates, setlists, news events and rumors. Who Threw the Glass (Australia - quarterly, AUS$12 for subscription, contact Shane Youl <[email protected]> for more information) contains analysis & discussion of Dylan's ongoing works... Taper's Quarterly (US - quarterly, $10/yr) published by the Live Audio Video Association (LAVA), 1726 Sacramento St., San Francisco, CA 94109-3643 (or contact: [email protected]) is a forum for those who record live music of all sorts, and contains information reagrding equipment, techniques, etc. The Famous Etiquette Book (UK, available from PO Box 2935, Solihull, West Midlands, B91 2LQ, UK. Subscription is 5 pounds sterling for 5 issues, payable to Phill Townsend) TFEQ is a news-sheet produced by Phill Townsend (Crazy Joe in ISIS) that gives updates on Dylan CD boots as they become available. This information later becomes available in ISIS and Series of Dreams, and eventually in Townsend's book(s). Why A Pig? (UK, subscriptions are for 4 issues, c/o PO Box 3239, London SW6, UK. Cheques/POs/IMO should be made payable to "Why A Pig?" UK subs: 10 pounds; Europe subs: 12 pounds; USA subs: $15 sea, $20 air) Devoted to covering the 'underground' CD market regarding many performers. Rolling Thunder (Italy - three times a year, issues $12 each through Rolling Tomes) Described in the Rolling Tomes catalog as "large format, nice layout and photos. Mostly Italian text." There are a number of discontinued magazines that are still in print or available as back orders, such as Homer the Slut (UK) and Look Back (US). For more information, contact Rolling Tomes. 4. I just read an article about Bob Dylan in my newspaper... ============================================================ Mark Carter provides a cutting service to which everyone should contribute. If you see something in a newspaper, magazine or journal of even the remotest relevance to Bob Dylan and his work then you should send it to him. If it is something you would throw away then send the original, otherwise send a photocopy. Include all relevant information of the date, publication, place, page numbers, etc. Send your contributions to: Norfolk NR3 7AP England Just because the article appeared in the New York Times doesn't mean that someone else has already sent it! Duplications are trivial, but omissions are glaring errors :-). Submissions from publications with limited circulation and non-English newspapers are especially encouraged, since the rest of the world will probably never know of these articles unless you clip them! 5. What are bootlegs, and how do I find them? ============================================= A bootleg is any recording, live or studio, which is not officially sanctioned by the artist's recording company for sale or distribution. In the U.S., it is legal to tape a radio show or television special for your own personal use, but it is illegal to sell or rebroadcast such a recording. It is also illegal to record concerts without the artist's consent, and anyone who makes or distributes bootleg recordings can be subject to prosecution. Dylan's 'Royal Albert Hall' concert is one of the most famous bootlegs of all time, dating from the 1966 tour of England (chances are that this recording is really from Manchester or elsewhere). Contains some truly amazing live performances; the 'electric' set was received very poorly by the audience at hand. Near the end of the show, an irritated audience member yells out "Judas!" Dylan responds by saying: "I don't believe you... You're a liar!" before launching into a truly overpowering version of "Like a Rolling Stone," obviously directed at that same audience member... This audio bootleg is one of many fragments of soundboard tapes circulating from the 1966 tour, and the origin of these tapes is a frequent topic of discussion among Dylan fans everywhere. A pirated recording, however, is an illegal copy of an official release by an artist. Anyone who tapes a legally available CD or record and then tries to sell you a copy is violating the copyright on that recording and is knowingly depriving the artist of royalties. The record industry does its best to search out pirates and prosecute them. Pirated recordings (often made in countries like Thailand or Indonesia, where authorities are easy to bribe or too busy to notice) do deprive the company and artist of money, and are thus far worse than bootlegs - the record industry claims that it loses hundreds of millions of dollars every year to record pirates. These are usually the cheapo tapes with blurry covers (or no jacket at all) that are sold in flea markets and the like. Avoid like the plague. On the other hand, counterfeit recordings are generally very professional in appearance (supposedly there are thousands of pirated copies of the Beatles' _Let It Be_ album in circulation that are nearly indistinguishable from the official Apple Records release). A counterfeit recording is an exact copy of a legitimate recording (often with a few distinguishing flaws) that is illegally distributed as the real thing. Nevertheless, there are literally thousands of bootleg recordings of Dylan performances and even studio sessions that are widely circulated among collectors, and certain countries (such as Italy) have lenient copyright laws which allow many of these recordings to be pressed on compact disc. These discs are usually distributed as expensive "live/rare" material and can only be found through record specialty stores (usually the same places that sell used records) and individual dealers, some of whom do mailorder business. It is not within proper Internet/Usenet etiquette to make the sources of such black-market operations available publicly, so the only way that you will find bootlegs is by finding a store that sells them or posting a request for information and waiting for someone to respond via email. That is one FAQ that can't be answered publicly. Many people obtain 'live/rare' material by trading DAT or cassette tapes. This is obviously a lot cheaper than searching for profit-seeking dealers of CD bootlegs (most of these are mastered from cassettes, anyway), and is far less condemnable, so long as there is no payment involved. Rec.music.gdead, the newsgroup for the Grateful Dead, is one place where live tapes are traded legally - this is because the Grateful Dead allow their concerts to be taped from a special section of the audience and distributed for non-profit listening. If you follow the newsgroup for a while, you will invariably see discussions of unreleased Bob Dylan material. A friendly email response will often help locate someone with whom you can trade live Dylan tapes... If you do come across a Dylan CD and want to tell the newsgroup about it, simply imitate the format of other listings you have seen, or ask for help. Of importance are the songs included and their length, the title and manufacturer of the disc, the matrix number (printed in tiny characters on the inner ring of the disc), and the supposed origin of the recording. In short, the easiest way to find a particular out-of-print or rare item is to latch onto a discussion of that item, or to bring up the topic yourself. Most Bob Dylan fans are quite willing to share their addiction with others... A few pointers for those just starting out in tape trading: Always use CrO2 (or better) cassettes - Maxell XLII is a good standard, since its availability and quality standards are known worldwide. TDK SA seems to have been accepted as an equal. (Digital Audio Tape recorders are best, but not everyone can afford DAT...) Be sure to indicate whether or not you want to use Dolby Noise Reduction - many tapers prefer no Dolby at all, but Dolby-C has developed a sizable following... Few novices record at the correct level on CrO2 cassettes - don't be frightened of the red, it takes massively high levels to distort with a good machine. Record too low and the tape hiss generation by generation in a tape tree becomes intolerable. Restart from the beginning any final track which is unfinished on the first side of a tape. Most trades are done on a one tape for one tape basis - if you discover that you can't fit all the items requested onto the number of tapes allotted, don't just send an incomplete recording! And do make sure you have actually taped the FULL recording. It is all too easy to accidentally clip the end of a song witout noticing. Stay in touch with your trading partner to avoid disappointment on both ends. Above all, don't be afraid to ask questions if you become confused! Agree with your trader if they want blank tape left blank, filler inserted, or the source restarted to fill the tape with repeated material. Also determine the prefered method of shipment and whether or not you will be mailing the tapes in their plastic boxes. If you are mailing overseas, be sure to indicate that the package is a 'gift' on the customs form; and use a low value when estimating the worth of the package contents. Many countries levy considerable customs fees for valuable packages, which the recipient will have to pay... THE BOB DYLAN BOOT DATA BASE (BDBDB) EDLIS now maintains a database of collectors who have registered ownership of particular Dylan boots. The purposes of this service are to disseminate information about boots (playlists, times, quality, etc.) and to promote networking between collectors. Periodically, a post to rec.music.dylan will be made under the subject "EDLIS - Who Has Which Boot..." describing how to access the service and how to contribute your collection list. Questions posted to the newsgroup at-large are also relayed to the agency. As with EDLIS' lyric service, the Who Has Which Boot database depends on the generosity of collectors who send in their listings and volunteer to provide information. No collection is too large or too small, and your participation is strongly encouraged! 6. Has Bob Dylan appeared in any movies or film documentaries? ============================================================== D.A. Pennebaker filmed "Don't Look Back," a documentary of Dylan's 1965 tour of England (it would be his last stand as a strictly 'folk' performer). "Don't Look Back" is available on videocassette and features footage of concerts, press-conferences and back-stage activity. This is Dylan at his most playful/caustic, getting his digs at the press, a hapless college student who wants to interview him and Donovan, among others... Essential for the Dylan enthusiast. The movie "Festival" covers several of the Newport Folk Festivals of the 1960's, and features Dylan infamous first 'electric' performance, with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. "Eat the Document" is a one-hour film shot by D.A. Pennebaker during the landmark 1966 'electric' tour of England and later edited by Howard Alk and Dylan himself. This rather bizarre anti-documentary film was shown at a few theaters in 1971, and has had a rare television airing or two since, but is not in print. A short tape of outtakes from the movie was assembled by Pennebaker and circulates on videotape. "The Concert for Bangladesh," available on both videocassette and compact disc, is George Harrison's fundraising benefit filmed at Madison Square Gardens in 1971. Dylan makes a rare early 1970's concert guest appearance and steals the show! "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" is a Sam Peckinpah western tale of the familiar outlaw. Bob Dylan wrote the soundtrack (includes "Knockin' on Heaven's Door") and appears as "Alias," a bit part with a few amusing scenes. The movie exists in the original release form, and a 'directors' cut'. Both include some soundtrack music that is not on the soundtrack album. "The Last Waltz" documents the 'farewell' concert by The Band in 1976, and features Dylan as well as a bevy of other performers in what has been hailed as one of the best rock-documentaries made. "Renaldo and Clara" - this four-hour movie by Bob Dylan (and a two-hour, edited version) was shown at a few theaters in 1978, received generally dismal reviews, and disappeared from sight. It will probably not be given official release on any format any time in the near future. It does, however, contain some great live footage from the 1975 Rolling Thunder tour, during which this movie was recorded. Circulating videotape copies probably originated from a mid-1980's late-night television broadcast of this movie in Britain. The Hard Rain television special - filmed in concert in Fort Collins, Colorado, May 1976, this footage was broadcast on NBC, but has not seen official release on videocassette. Some, but not all, of the performances from this set are on the live album _Hard Rain_... There is an 'alternate' version of the Hard Rain special, with a very different song selection, from Clearwater, Florida, April 1976 that was never broadcast but also circulates in the underground. Bob Dylan also appears in the movie "Hearts of Fire," filmed in 1985, playing the part of an aging rock star. The script of this movie is pretty hackneyed stuff, and received poor reviews. Still, Dylan fans will find some moments of interest. "Hard to Handle" is a concert videotape from the 1986 tour of Australia with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. "The Bob Dylan 30th Anniversary Tribute" videotapes document Columbia Records' massive Dylan tribute show at Madison Square Gardens in 1992. Dylan himself appears only briefly, but a host of other performers play songs here that Dylan rarely or never airs...

The 'Bushwackers' are/were a gang of football hooligans who supported which London club?	7 Most Dangerous British Soccer 'Hooligan Firms' - PopCrunch 15 Movies That Would Make Terrible Video Games Aston Villa Hardcore The other notorious Birmingham based firm, the Aston Villa Hardcore are affiliated with the club otherwise known as The Villains. Although, like other firms, they have found themselves marginalized today, the Hardcore have a fierce reputation built on a foundation of causing major carnage. The “Battle of Rocky Lane” in 2002 witnessed some serious disorder in the Aston area after a match between Villa and Birmingham City which led to 15 arrests. Then in 2005, firm member, Steven Fowler, who had already been jailed for six months in the 2002 fight, was sent down for a further twelve for his part in organized bit of aggro between the Villa Hardcore and Chelsea’s Headhunters at London’s King’s Cross in 2004. Also in 2004, several Villa firms were involved in a running battle with QPR fans outside Villa Park in which a steward died. Dangerous to know; even more dangerous to cross. Inter City Firm A gang of hooligans mainly active from the 1970s to the 1990s, the feared Inter City Firm was tied to well known London club West Ham United. Named after the trains they traveled on for away matches, the Inter City Firm became identified by their habit of leaving a card on the prone bodies of those they attacked, reading: “Congratulations, you’ve just met the ICF.” Despite such practices, Cass Pennant, a black Londoner and former general of the Inter City Firm, maintains that, unlike many other groups of its kind, the ICF was neither racist nor neo-Nazi. Still, nice folks they most certainly were not. Numerous instances of their extreme violent behavior have been documented, often against rival London firms such as Millwall’s Bushwackers, with tear ups and attacks on pubs being the disorder of the day. Vicious thugs not to be crossed by anyone unless they happen to like hospitals. 6.57 Crew Linked with English Premier League team Portsmouth F.C., and named after the 6.57am train they would take to London’s Waterloo Station on a Saturday, the 6.57 Crew were one of the major firms during the 1980s, causing mayhem across the country. Spoiling for fights has remained high on the agenda for this squad of south coast louts. In 2001, they fought with Coventry City fans at an away game, ripping up seats and throwing missiles at their rivals. In 2004, 93 were arrested – including a 10-year-old boy who became the UK’s youngest-ever convicted football hooligan – for their part in mass riots before and after a match against rivals Southampton, where police were attacked and shops looted. Over one hundred Portsmouth hooligans were banned from traveling to the 2006 World Cup in Germany because of convictions for football-related crime. Firm but far from friendly. 10 Best Natural Hooters in Hollywood The Red Army Just as Manchester United is one of the biggest football clubs in the beautiful game, so their fanatical firm, the Red Army, is said to have had the largest numbers at the height of Britain’s hooligan problem. While the name the Red Army is also used to refer to Man U’s fans in general, in the mid-’70s the name became synonymous with some of the defining incidents in British hooliganism, notoriously in 1974-75 when United had been relegated from the top flight of English football for one season and hordes of thugs wreaked havoc at stadiums up and down the country, sometimes outnumbering the home support. Their activities led to the introduction of crowd segregation and fencing at football grounds in England. Mass tear ups with other firms are well documented, with the 1985 documentary ‘Hooligan’ showing the Red Army clashing with West Ham’s Inter City Firm around Manchester. Mob rules. Chelsea Headhunters With a name like the Headhunters you know this gang of thugs mean business. Linked to famous London club Chelsea, these mean geezers are notorious for their racism, with links to far right groups like the National Front and the paramilitary Combat 18. In 1999 the Headhunters were infiltrated by an undercover BBC reporter who posed as a wannabe member but got the wrong lion tattoo – a risky mistake that raised eyebrows among the hardcore. Former firm dieharder Kevin Whitton was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1985 after an attack seen as one of England’s worst incidents of football hooliganism. After Chelsea had lost, Whitton and others stormed a pub chanting: “War, war, war.” When they left minutes later the American bar manager lay close to death, with one of the hooligans shouting: “You bloody Americans. Coming here taking our jobs.” Nuff said.	Millwall
What is the state capital of North Dakota sharing its name with the surname of a famous historical figure?	Man is stabbed as West Ham and Millwall fans brawl outside stadium \| Daily Mail Online comments Hooligans behind violent clashes at a match between West Ham and Millwall today boasted about the rampage which ended in one fan being stabbed. Evidence has emerged showing thugs organised the riots at the Carling Cup match on internet chatrooms. One message said: 'Make sure you bring your bats and don't bring your kids.' Police are scouring CCTV footage of the brawls at West Ham's Upton Park stadium in east London in a bid to pinpoint the perpetrators. As they began their investigation, fans gloated about the fighting which saw one man stabbed in the chest and more than 20 others injured. One wrote on Millwall Online under the headline 'Someone stabbed': 'Let's just pray that whoever it is pulls through ok.. unless they're a West Ham ****, then let them die.' Bloody: A fan is removed from the pitch by police at the game between West Ham and Millwall Face-off: West Ham's Jack Collison encourages fans to leave after the pitch invasion Fury: Stewards and police stop Millwall fans spilling over into the West Ham area West Ham supporters also praised the violence. One said: 'Nights like last night make me want to go back to Upton Park more regularly... the passion and atmosphere.' Another fan who had clearly already been barred from the ground wrote: 'Broke my banning order restrictions... am confident of getting away with it.' RELATED ARTICLES Share this article Share Questions are being asked about the numbers of police at the fixture, which fans had predicted would attract hooligans from both sets of supporters. And it is feared the ugly fighting could harm the Football Association's bid to host the 2018 World Cup which will be decided next year. The fighting began shortly after 6pm as thousands of fans made their way to the ground and descended into running battles with up to 1,000 riot police. The violent scenes were still being played out six hours later, well after the match had been won by West Ham 3-1. Tensions completely boiled over when West Ham took the lead in extra time and around 60 fans raced on to the pitch as vicious chanting echoed around the stands. Supporters fought with police and stewards and play was suspended. Bricks and bottles were thrown at officials and police and at least 10 people were arrested. Chaos: Fans invaded the pitch during the match which had to be temporarily suspended in extra time Menace: Police officers in riot gear monitor fans outside the ground at Upton Park One Millwall fan said: 'It was like a war zone outside the stadium. I brought my kids with me and they've seen some violence that is indescribable.' The 44-year-old man was stabbed in the chest just yards from the ground and is today in a stable condition in hospital. Two other fans had to be taken to hospital for treatment to less serious injuries after what police called 'large-scale' violence. Millwall and West Ham have one of the longest-standing rivalries in English football but have rarely been in the same division and have not played each other since 2005. A West Ham fan said the violent scenes 'seemed to belong to another era'. Scotland Yard said they were 'pre-planned and organised'. John Whittingham, 35, a caretaker who lives near the ground, added: 'There were lots of scuffles and fights before the game. I saw a couple of people with bloody faces. 'People were throwing bricks but I haven't got a clue where they were finding them. Some people were trying to rip bollards off the pavement. There were also some fires lit.' Mayhem: Fans storm the pitch at the end of the Carling Cup match Running battles: Riot police try to control hundreds of fans outside a pub Pitch battle: A fan receives treatment after being hit by a bottle Among the spectators in the ground was actress Jaime Winstone, who is engaged to Lily Allen's brother Alfie. Miss Allen begged on social-networking website Twitter: 'Millwall-WestHam, stop fighting, my Jaime is there. If anything happens to her... I don't know, just stop it!' Police and stewards had battled to keep the two sets of fans apart during the game as they taunted one another as news of the fighting outside filtered through. But when the game ended, hundreds of fans invaded the pitch again and had to be forcibly removed. A 56-year-old man said: 'There were a lot of lunatics around. The thing is, between these two sets of fans, it's hatred. The teams haven't played each other for so long so I suppose it was always going to kick off.' VIDEO: Watch one fan's footage of INSIDE the ground The manager of a nearby kebab shop said: 'All hell broke loose, it was very frightening. It's not every day you see stuff like that. There were West Ham fans on one side and Millwall on the other. They were being kept apart by the police. 'There were West Ham fans for as far as you could see along the street. Bottles and bricks were being thrown from the back and some were hitting West Ham fans at the front. There were loads of people with blooded faces.' Another man, aged 19, who did not want to be named, said: 'People were chipping bricks off buildings and throwing them at police. I saw one officer getting kicked as he was on the ground.' A man receives treatment after clashes with rival supporter Enlarge West Ham fans run on to the pitch after their side equalised One West Ham fan said his tube train had stopped just before Upton Park at 7.20pm and did not move for around 15 minutes. 'Tempers flared on board as kick-off approached, people tried breaking open the doors,' he said. 'The atmosphere was tense in surrounding streets, the police helicopter was up and riot police were everywhere. It was only a matter of time before it all kicked off.' Home Secretary Alan Johnson described the riots as 'disgraceful' and insisted tough legislation would ensure there was no return to the old days of hooliganism. 'Anyone who thinks that thuggery has any place in modern-day football is living in the dark ages and will bring only shame upon themselves and the teams they support,' he said. Chairman of the Football Supporters Federation Malcolm Clarke was meeting with Football Association boss Ian Watmore today to discuss the riots. 'It's not a good start to the season and it's important a full investigation is done, and the FA are going to do this with all parties to see exactly what caused this. But I think at this stage we must keep it in perspective. 'Certainly over the last 20 years the amount of football violence has radically reduced. It's too early I think to start drawing too many long-term conclusions, but obviously this was a very serious incident,' he said. A spokesman for the FA said: 'We absolutely condemn all of the disorder that has occurred at Upton Park this evening both inside and outside of the ground. 'We will be working with all parties, including the police and clubs, to establish the facts surrounding tonight's events. We strongly expect all culprits to be banned from football for life. They have no place in our game.' Pent-up: Stewards try to keep angry fans at bay as they start to emerge from the stands Out of control: An injured steward with his arm in a sling is ushered away by riot police inside the ground West Ham boss Gianfranco Zola also spoke of his shock, saying: 'It's certainly not good for football. I was completely shocked. Totally. I knew it was a game that meant a lot for the two sets of supporters, but I didn't imagine it like this. 'What can I say? I'm a sport man. I love the game. I love to go on the pitch and try and make it exciting for the supporters and enjoyable for everybody to watch. This was beyond my powers.' Millwall boss Kenny Jackett added: 'There were no Millwall fans on the pitch. They stayed where they were supposed to. There were a lot of people on the pitch. The lads gathered together and came to the sides, as they should have. 'I wasn't aware of the stabbing outside the ground. I'm very sad to hear that. We've got a passionate game in this country, but when it oversteps the mark then things have to be done.' The clashes are the worst violence between the clubs for decades. Formed by rival dockers in London's East End in the late 19th century, the two have long been known for their rivalry. Millwall were formed in 1885 on the Isel of Dogs, and drew a lot of their support from the island and surrounding areas such as Poplar, Bow, Stepney, Wapping and also south of the river in Southwark. Meanwhile, East End shipbuilders and ironworkers got a factory team together which became Thames Ironworks FC. Millwall and Thames Ironworks often met in heated league and cup games, and a rivarly developed. Thames Ironworks eventually became West Ham and the rivalry was set. In the 1960s, it even crept into London's two most notorious gangs: The Krays, who hailed from the East End and supported West Ham; and the Richardsons, from south of the river and followed Millwall. Two clubs and a very bitter history West Ham and Millwall, both originating in London's East End, have one of the most bitter and longstanding rivalries in English football history. It started in the early years of the 20th century between rival dockers at two London shipyards on either side of the Thames. Millwall, formed in 1885 by dockers and shipbuilders on the Isle of Dogs gained support in the surrounding areas and were then the best team outside the FA, nicknamed the 'Lions of the South'. When a rival football team was formed by dockers at Thames Ironworks, the two became vicious enemies. They were rivals for the same contracts and the players lived in the same locality. Tensions reached their peak in the 1920s when Thames Ironworks moved to a new home and adopted the name West Ham United. As Millwall struggled, West Ham's star was rising. Fighting broke out during the 1926 general strike when the West Ham dockers were on strike while Millwall carried on working. Although troubles subsided for a time as the two teams didn't meet, the seventies and eighties brought a fresh wave of violence. The hostilities continued as 'firms' associated with the clubs began fighting. West Ham gained notoriety for its association with the Mile End Mob - a gang of football hooligans named after a particularly tough area of the East End of London. The club was also linked to the Inter City Firm whose members deliberately wore non-football clothing and travelled to games on 'Inter City' trains rather than tightly-policed 'football special' charter trains. The 2005 film Green Street (Hooligans) depicts an American student who becomes involved with a fictional firm associated with West Ham, with an emphasis on the rivalry with Millwall.	i don't know
In the animated television cartoons, who was the partner of the Moose 'Bullwinkle'?	Bullwinkle J. Moose \| Rocky and Bullwinkle Wiki \| Fandom powered by Wikia [ show ] Creation Ward and his business partner Alex Anderson created Bullwinkle for The Frostbite Falls Review, a storyboard idea which was never developed into a series. They gave him the name "Bullwinkle Jay Moose, Berry " after Clarence Bullwinkel, a car dealer, because they thought it was a funny name. Both Bullwinkle and Rocky were given the middle initial "J" in reference to Ward. From his debut along with Rocky, Bullwinkle's gloves were blue. Later in the second story arc and for the rest of the series, they become white. Also, in contemporary promotion art, Bullwinkle's antlers are a yellowish orange in contrast to the rest of his body; originally they were brown. Biography Bullwinkle, with Rocky. Bullwinkle shared a house with his best friend Rocky in the fictional small town of Frostbite Falls, Minnesota, a parody of the real-life American town of International Falls, Minnesota. Bullwinkle attended college at "Wossamotta U" on a football scholarship. He is a long-time supporter of the Bull Moose Party, and at one time was the part-owner, part-governor of the island of Moosylvania . In seasons 1 and 2, he makes reference to having an Uncle Dewlap, who bequeathed Bullwinkle vast amounts of wealth (in the form of a cereal boxtop collection, and an Upsidaisium mine). In the half-cartoon, half-live-action movie The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle, Bullwinkle receives an Honorary Mooster's Degree from Wossamotta U , due to the nefarious plans of Boris Badenov. Personality Bullwinkle was noted for being well-meaning, but also quite dim-witted, which made for a source of jokes during the show's run. Despite this, the so-called "moronic moose" often aided the brains of the "moose-and-squirrel" duo, Rocky, during their various adventures. Although on opposite ends of the I.Q. scale, he and the "plucky squirrel" had a shared sense of optimism, persistence and traditional ethics and moral standards. Although not as intelligent as Rocky, Bullwinkle often made references breaking the fourth wall, so he was not always as clueless as he appeared. Bullwinkle also hosted other segments of the program, including: "Mr. Know-It-All," where he tried to demonstrate his supposed (albeit nonexistent) expertise at a subject, such as disarming bombs or curing hiccups; "Bullwinkle's Corner," where the moose would attempt to read poetry, notably I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud (The Daffodils) of William Wordsworth; and various interstitial drop-ins. In one classic running gag, Bullwinkle would attempt to pull a rabbit out of a top hat (to Rocky's dismissal: "Again?!" or "But that trick never works!", and Bullwinkle's canonical rejoinder, "Nothing up my sleeve...Presto!" or "This time, for sure! Presto!"), only to pull out something unexpected instead (such as a bear), and occasionally even Rocky himself. After each failed attempt, Rocky would segue to a commercial by saying, "Now, here's something we hope you'll really like!" Powers and abilities Bullwinkle could remember everything he ever ate. While obscure, this ability came in handy in the "Banana Formula" caper. At times, Bullwinkle has exhibited near-superhuman strength, known as his "mighty moose muscle". He is also shown in one story arc to be able to predict the weather based on how his bunion reacts to hearing certain dates. However, this only seemed to work as long as he had the bunion. Voice Bill Scott , Ward's partner and head writer of the series, was the original voice of Bullwinkle. In the 2000 Universal Pictures film The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle, Bullwinkle was voiced by Ward fan Keith Scott (no relation to Bill), as Bill had died of a heart attack in 1985. At the time, he had finished the first season of voicing another Moose character, Moosel, for The Wuzzles. In some of the more recent commercials and projects, Frank Welker has voiced Bullwinkle. In the DreamWorks short, Bullwinkle was voiced by Tom Kenny of SpongeBob SquarePants fame.	Rocky
Which year was called 'The Year Of Revolutions'?	Alex Anderson, 90; cartoonist created Rocky and Bullwinkle - The Boston Globe Obituaries Alex Anderson, 90; cartoonist created Rocky and Bullwinkle Over time, Alex Anderson’s role in developing the cartoon characters Bullwinkle and Rocky was largely forgotten. (Abc Photo Archives) Washington Post / October 25, 2010 E-mail this article Add a personal message:(80 character limit) Your E-mail: Reprints \| Text size – + WASHINGTON — Alex Anderson, the artist who created the cartoon characters Rocky and Bullwinkle, the flying squirrel and hapless moose who were TV fixtures in the early 1960s, died Friday at a nursing facility in Carmel, Calif. His wife said he had Alzheimer’s disease. He was 90. Mr. Anderson, who grew up in a cartooning family in California, was also the creator of Crusader Rabbit, which became television’s first animated cartoon series in 1949. He spent much of his career in advertising, and his role in creating Rocky and Bullwinkle was overlooked with time. He fought a legal battle late in life to reclaim recognition as the cartoon characters’ artistic father. Rocket “Rocky’’ J. Squirrel and Bullwinkle J. Moose first landed on network TV in 1959. They lived in the town of Frostbite Falls and found themselves embroiled in all manner of absurd plots involving espionage and devious villains. The show contained outrageous puns and veiled Cold War commentary that sailed over the heads of the children who were its primary audience. The cartoons also featured another of Mr. Anderson’s popular creations, Dudley Do-Right, a strutting Canadian Mountie in constant pursuit of his nemesis, the mustache-twirling Snidely Whiplash. Mr. Anderson was not part of the production of the original series, which ran on ABC from 1959 to 1961 and NBC from 1961 to 1964. As the years passed, his role in developing the characters was largely forgotten. He received nothing when a lucrative video deal was struck for the Bullwinkle franchise. “I’m thrilled that something I did has become so popular,’’ he told the San Francisco Chronicle in 1991. “But I’m sorry that I don’t get any credit for it.’’ He decided to take legal action after seeing a documentary about Bullwinkle that didn’t mention his name. Instead, most of the credit went to his childhood friend and onetime business partner, Jay Ward. Animator and writer Bill Scott, who was the first TV voice of Bullwinkle, was also cited as a “creative force.’’ Mr. Anderson and Ward grew up together in Berkeley, Calif., and formed a business in the late 1940s to pitch cartoon ideas to television. Crusader Rabbit, Rocky, Bullwinkle, and Dudley Do-Right were among the characters they showed to studio executives before Crusader Rabbit was picked up. After Mr. Anderson’s other cartoon ideas failed to catch on, he joined a San Francisco advertising agency. Ward moved to Los Angeles, trying to sell TV studios on a Bullwinkle series. Mr. Anderson reportedly retained half-ownership of the characters and received regular payments until Ward died in 1989. In the early 1990s, Mr. Anderson filed suit against Ward’s heirs to reclaim full credit as the creator of Rocky and Bullwinkle. He received a lump-sum settlement in 1993, along with a court-mandated acknowledgment as “the creator of the first version of the characters of Rocky, Bullwinkle, and Dudley.’’ Mr. Anderson said the idea for Bullwinkle came to him when he dreamed that a goofy moose was sitting in on a poker game. “There’s something majestic about’’ moose, Mr. Anderson said in 1991. “They’re macho, but they have a comic aspect, with that schnozzola of theirs. There are few creatures just begging to be caricatured.’’ Near his Berkeley studio in those early days, there was a car dealer called Bullwinkel Motors. Mr. Anderson changed the spelling of the name and gave it to his moose, and an unforgettable cartoon character was born. © Copyright 2010 Globe Newspaper Company.	i don't know
What word is used to describe a sorcerer, especially one who conjures up the dead?	Saul and the Witch of Endor Volume 86, Issue 1 ________________________________Bible Prophecy Ministry Saul and the Witch of Endor Darrell G. Young including a Topical Study by: Spirit of the Witch at Endor Based on I Samuel chapter 28 Focus on Jerusalem Prophecy Ministry is pleased to present this article on Saul and the witch of Endor along with the attached topical study below that has been provided to FOJ by Charles Strong of the Bibleone Ministry website. FOJ had undertaken a study of the case of the spirit of the witch of Endor, and requested additional research from Charles Strong for his analysis of the rather curious situation as presented between Saul and the witch of Endor in I Samuel chapter 28. As a prelude to Charles topical study on the witch of Endor, FOJ also provides the following informational backdrop for this article. Endor was a city of the tribe of Manasseh, located about 9 miles southeast of the Sea of Galilee. Samuel was a faithful prophet of the Lord, and serves as a righteous judge for Israel before the times of the kings. The name of Samuel means �name of God.� Samuel was one of the earliest of the great Hebrew prophets and the last judge of Israel. Samuel led his people against their Philistine oppressors. When he was an old man, Samuel anointed Saul as the first king of Israel and later anointed David as Saul's successor. Samuel is recognized as one of the greatest leaders of Israel. In the early part of his ministry, Samuel served as a traveling judge of Israel. From his home in Ramah, he made a yearly circuit to the cities of Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah. Under Samuel, the judgeship of Israel developed into something more than a military leader called upon for dramatic leadership in times of national crises. He became a judge with a permanent leadership office, an office approaching the stature of a king in other nations. When the people clamored for a king like the surrounding nations (1 Samuel 8:5), Samuel was reluctant to grant their request. At first, Samuel though the people of Israel were disgruntled with him and he took this as a rejection of his long years of godly service on behalf of the people. He also was very aware of the evils that went along with the establishment of a royal house. But the Lord helped Samuel to see the real issue, namely that Israel aspired to be like the other nations of the world, and have a king. In their aspiration for a king, Israel was in essence turning their backs on Jehovah. The Lord God remarked to Samuel: "Heed the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them." (1 Samuel 8:7) � This serious subject matter of Kingship in Israel, and Israel�s blindness to the Divinely mandated right of God to appoint kings in Israel is part of the reason that Israel has become compromised with worldly whoredom, and missed out on the identity of her true Messiah King. � Israel has always wanted to be like the other nations of the world, and to be accepted by them, and to have a king comparable to other nations. (I Samuel 8:4-5 Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah, And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.) The person (Saul, whom the people esteemed because of his physical stature) whom Samuel anointed as the first king of Israel turned out to be a poor choice. Saul was handsome, likeable, tall, and an imposing physical specimen. Saul was Israel�s perception of the ideal prototypical king, one like the other nations had. But he had a tragic spiritual flaw that led ultimately to his own downfall. He capitulated to the will of the people and disobeyed God by taking war spoils in a battle rather than wiping out all living things, as God had advised and commanded. (1 Samuel 15:18-26) Saul's false pride and extreme jealousy toward David, who had slain Goliath, also led him into some serious errors of judgment and jealousy. Thus, when God finally rejected Saul as king, God once again used Samuel to announce the prophetic words of Saul�s impending judgment. (1 Samuel 15:10-11 Then came the word of the Lord unto Samuel, saying, It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the Lord all night.) Later, when Saul felt threatened by the warring Philistines, Saul decided to disguise his appearance, and approach the witch of Endor for consultations with her to act as a medium to Samuel, so he could receive some much needed advice from the deceased Samuel. Saul had previously developed a reputation for disposing the country of witches, because he had been advised of Samuel to not suffer any witches to remain in Israel. Now, without having access to the wisdom of Samuel, Saul needed to disguise himself before the witch of Endor, so as not to alarm her. When the witch conjured up Samuel, the apparition caused her to become affrighted, for then she realized that her client was none other than Saul, a close confidant of Samuel. I Samuel 28:11-16 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel. And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul. And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I saw gods ascending out of the earth. And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself. And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do. Then said Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy? A medium (such as the witch of Endor) was a person thought to have the power to communicate with the spirits of the dead. (Isaiah 8:19; 19:3; 29:4) Isaiah 8:19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? Isaiah reveals that spirits and powers of the dark world have the ability to peep into our affairs, and to observe the ongoings of things all around us, and therefore to know much about us that we would only expect someone personally close to us to know about. God says that by seeking after wizards and witches, one is demonstrating that they are placing more faith in the false gods of this world than in the one true God. In Luke 20:38, God further reveals that he is a God of the living, and not a god of the dead. According to the Law of Moses, anyone who professed to be a medium or a channel of communication to the spirit world was to be put to death by stoning, and this was the judgment prescribed by Samuel. A medium was considered a necromancer, or communicator of the dead. The practice of being a necromancer was the craft or practice for extracting information of guidance from a Pagan god. For this reason alone, the spirit of Samuel conjured up by the witch of Endor should be viewed with great skepticism. The Bible explicitly teaches against expecting any legitimate contact with the dead, for its participation can only serve the purposes of Satan. Deuteronomy 18:9-12 When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. The witch of Endor reveals that she saw gods (plural) ascending out of the earth. There is much debate as to whether or not the gods out of the earth were from Heaven or from Hell, and as to whether or not the apparition that was conjured up by the witch was the real Samuel. The witch described Samuel�s appearance to Saul as being an old man covered in a mantle. A mantle was a type of robe, or coat for the upper portion of the body. There was something about this mantle that convinced Saul that the apparition was indeed Samuel. It may be that Saul remembered that Samuel�s mantle had become torn in a prior meeting between himself and Samuel. Samuel informed Saul, that like the renting of his mantle, so had God rented the kingdom of Israel from Saul. Perhaps the torn mantle was a sign that deceived Saul into perceiving that the apparition was none other than the real Samuel. � You will notice that in verse 15 of chapter 28 of I Samuel that the apparition appearing as Samuel addresses Saul in this manner; �why has thou disquieted me, to bring me up?, and, why then dost thou ask of me, seeing the Lord is departed from thee, and is thine enemy?� One can almost hear the harsh anger intoned by these remarks directed towards Saul. It is as if the apparition is immediately and intentionally trying to intimidate Saul. By intoning this strong invective against Saul, the apparition has placed Saul on the defensive, and shown that he has super-knowledge about Saul�s dilemma. This insidious demonic game-mansip was never Samuel�s reaction and attitude towards Saul while Samuel was alive. Samuel was always respectful of Saul and demonstrated immense love for Saul, even after the Lord had withdrawn his favor from Saul. (1 Samuel 15:35 And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.) I Samuel 15:26-28 And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel. And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent. And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbor of thine, that is better than thou. It is often assumed that the apparition conjured up by the witch of Endor was the real Samuel, allowed by God to emerge on the scene when the witch called him up. Most scholars that follow this line of interpretation feel that the fact that the apparition correctly predicted Saul�s defeat and his son�s deaths verifies that the apparition was from God. But this theory seems to fly directly in the face of the Lord�s own instructions. Leviticus 19:31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 20:6 And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people. Also, the scriptures informs us that there is a great gulf fixed between heaven, hell, and the earth that inhibits human passage from one place to the other. The rich man begged the Lord to send Lazarus to forewarn his brothers of the torments of Hell, so that they could avoid that place. But the Lord informs the rich man that passage by Lazarus was impossible because of the gulf that was affixed between them. Furthermore, the Lord informs the rich man that people such as his brothers would not even be persuaded of the truth even if someone appeared unto them though they were returned from the dead. So, it seems highly unlikely that the apparition appearing as Samuel was anything other than a demonic trick. Luke 16:26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. How then was the apparition able to correctly predict the defeat of Israel at the hands of the Philistines, the deaths of Saul and his son�s just a mere day after the conjured visit of the apparition by the witch at Endor? It should be noted that the Lord had already announced his abandonment of Saul because of his utter disobedience in chapter 15, and before Samuel had died, and had announced that his kingdom would be taken away from him. The forces of Hell were aware of the judgment of the Lord upon Saul, and when God abandoned Saul, he was left completely open and vulnerable to the devices of Satan. Moreover, the Lord through Samuel flatly informed Saul that his rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and his stubbornness against the Lord was as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee (Saul) from being king. From that point onward, Satan could have taken Saul and his camp anytime that he wanted. It was simply through the instrument of the Philistine armies that Satan devoured Saul and Israel.	Necromancy
Which extinct volcano is the highest mountain in the world, outside of Asia?	Witchcraft and Sorcery - The Forbidden Arts Witchcraft and Sorcery Witchcraft & Sorcery The Forbidden Arts I feel compelled in the Lord to write this article because we have had many requests lately for information about ouija boards and communicating with the dead. (Ouija is pronounced We-Gee). These are subjects that seem to strike fear in the hearts of Christians everywhere. But many Christians do not believe that they should be spoken about from the pulpit and so they are discussed in the dark corners of churches by people who, for the most part, have no idea exactly what they are talking about. We need to drag these subjects out into the light of Christ where they can be examined and shown for what they really are - Tricks of the devil! This article will probably offend some people, so consider yourself warned. Some people seem to feel that we should leave well enough alone, that it is not right to talk about things like these openly. Well I am here to rock the boat! Hosea 4:6 says that God's people are "destroyed for a lack of knowledge" and 2 Corinthians 2:11 tells us not to be ignorant of the devices of the devil. So in obedience to the word of God it is time to stand up and be a true man of God or get out of the boat. There are too many preachers in the world that refuse to preach the severity of God. They seem to be afraid that they will offend someone. Jesus and His apostles offended almost everyone, especially the established church of that time! If we are to be called true men of God then we must preach the whole truth of serving a jealous God, not just the good bits. Many of the requests for information we receive are from people that have a loved one that is involved in these forbidden practices. In order to answer these questions I found that a deeper study was needed. It is useless to try to attack a fortress by knocking the top off one of the towers. It is better to undermine the foundation and then all the walls will collapse. Before we go any further I should clarify a few things. This article will cover more than these two subjects because the Bible does not use occult, ouija, necromancy or similar words. These are modern words used to describe variations of sorcery and witchcraft. However the Bible does use the words sorcery, sorcerer and witchcraft. Everyone knows that sorcery has to do with magic and spells but let us see what more the Bible has to say. We are told in Revelation 21:8 that sorcerers shall have their part in the "lake which burneth with fire and brimstone. "The original Greek word for sorcerer is pharmakeus which means "an enchanter with drugs." This, in turn, comes from the word pharmakeia from which we get our modern English word pharmacy. The word in its original Greek means the occult, sorcery, witchcraft, illicit pharmaceuticals, trance, and magical incantation with drugs. Why does God condemn those that practice these forbidden arts? To find the answer to this question we must return to the Word of God. 1 Samuel 15:23 says that rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. Why does God equate the sin of witchcraft with the sin of rebellion? After all it is not murder or rape. To learn why, we must look at what witchcraft entails. It does not matter what you call it, witchcraft, sorcery, necromancy, tarot reading, horoscopes, ouija boards or any one of a hundred other names, witchcraft is rebellion and therefore is a sin against God. The purpose of any one of these forbidden practices is to seek knowledge over and above that which is allowed by God, whether it be to foretell the future, to have power over others or to control things that belong to God. In short to be as God Himself. Our God is a jealous God (Exodus 34:14). In Deuteronomy 6:15-16 it says; 15 (For the Lord thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the Lord thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth. 16 Ye shall not tempt the Lord your God, as ye tempted Him in Massah. In Exodus 17:7 we are told that at Massah the Israelites rebelled against the Lord God saying "Is the Lord among us or not." God created us for His pleasure. What right do we have to rebel against Him and put our trust in things other than what He allows? We do not have the right to do this. As 1 Corinthians 6:20 tells us: 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. (Emphasis added) God is telling us right there in His word that we are to put our trust in Him alone and to have faith that He will supply all of our needs, as He has promised. Hebrews 11:1 tells us that faith is the "substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen." We are to have enough faith that God, the creator of the entire universe, knows what is best for us, even if at times it does not seem like it to us. If we do not have enough faith to believe that God can supply our needs then how dare we call ourselves children of God? Jesus said that if we have the faith of a mustard seed then we can tell a mountain to move and it will (Matthew 17:20). How much faith then does it require to trust that God can look after our needs? Our lack of faith and trust in Him is why God condemns the sin of witchcraft so strongly. In fact God condemns it so much that the Old Testament punishment for witchcraft was death. Exodus 22:18: 18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. The sin of witchcraft is not a new sin; in fact it is almost as old as creation itself. It began in the Garden of Eden with Eve. Genesis 3:6 says: 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her: and he did eat. (Emphasis added) Eve desired to be as wise as God and the spirit of rebellion and witchcraft entered the world. This spirit has been with us ever since and is growing stronger and stronger. These spirits are overtaking us. Eve initiated this sin and this is one of the reasons why those that practice the sin of witchcraft are predominantly women. There are a number of Christians out there that do not understand the dangers of witchcraft and rebellion. They even go so far as to believe that things like horoscopes are fun to read even though they know that they are not real, but they are involved in the sin of rebellion and are in a very real danger of hell! I know that some of you reading this will think that I am being too harsh or too rigid. These are not my rules people! These are directly from the mouth of God Himself. It is all in His Word. If we open ourselves up to the devil just once he will take advantage of it. The devil is evil - not stupid. It might just be reading the horoscopes today and then, out of idle curiosity, you get a personalized horoscope done. Then you get a tarot reading. The next step after that is ouija boards and consulting mediums to communicate with the dead. This is direct rebellion against the Word of God, and it does not have to be anything as overt as this. Remember God calls rebellion as the sin of witchcraft. Any time you are not obeying God, you are being rebellious and you are opening yourself up to the spirits of witchcraft and all that comes with them. Witchcraft normally begins with the sin of curiosity, which in turn is born out of pride (this was the sin of Eve). This comes about because pride tells us that we have a right to know something when the Bible tells us that we are to place our trust in God and lean not to our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5). Remember, we have already established that we were bought with a price. So if we are no longer our own but belong to God, what right do we have to try to find out about the forbidden knowledge? How dare we put ourselves in the place of God! Where is our trust? This is very important so let me repeat it. What right do we have to do our own thing when we belong to God? None. We have no rights, we are slaves to Christ, and we are to do His will. I know that I have already said this, but this point is so important that it bears repeating. Now there are probably still some people reading this complaining that this is too rigid, that a loving God would not do this. It is because He is a loving God that He has set down rules. We set rules for our children because we love them and do not want to see then get hurt. God disciplines us for the same reason, as He shows us in Hebrews 12:5-11: 5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: 6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. 9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? 10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. 11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. This spells it out very clearly that God sets rules for our benefit and if we break those rules then God loves us enough to tell us that we must get right or go to hell. Verse 11 tells us that if we endure the correction then it produces "the peaceable fruit of righteousness". God has set down rules for us to follow, (as is His right to do,) but because of His love for us, He does not leave us without warning signs. That is what Hebrews 12:5-11 tells us. The things forbidden by God include more than has been mentioned. It also includes astral travel, mantras and chanting, astrology, shamanism, Wicca, white, black or gray magic, belief in and communicating with fairies, imps and spirits, divining, aura reading, animal and human sacrifice, self mutilation, psychics, role playing games, card, board and Internet role playing games, and many more too numerous to list. All of these practices and more come under the broad heading of witchcraft. They are the ways that people use to try to take the place of God and gain unnatural control over their own lives and the lives of others. I will expound on these subjects in future articles. These are subjects that need to be exposed and not feared because we are to have only a holy fear of God, not of man, not of the devil, not of the things of this world. (2 Corinthians 7:1) 1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. If you are unsure if you are involved in any area of witchcraft then you need to pray, read the word of God and ask for His guidance, because if you sincerely seek Him, you will find Him.

"Whose epitaph opens with: ""Hereabouts died a very gallant gentleman""?"	Read Image_of_the_English_Gentleman_in_Twentieth_Century_Literature_Ch1.pdf Chapter 1 The gentleman an elusive Term Women and Children First Gentleman a word simultaneously conjuring up diverse images, yet one so difficult to define. When we hear the term, we might think of Englishness; of class; of masculinity; of elegant fashions; of manners and morals. But we might also think of hypocrisy; of repression; of outdated behaviour befitting the characters of a Victorian novel, but which no longer holds any value in today's society. These conflicting images make it difficult to pinpoint the term `gentleman' in a definition. But where words seem inadequate, deeds can speak more clearly. When, on 15 April 1912, the Titanic sank, many of her male passengers acted out what it meant for them to be gentlemen, by refusing seats in the few lifeboats. Dan marvin was overheard calling to his new wife: `"It's all right, little girl ... you go and I'll stay a while"'; `"Be brave; no matter what happens, be brave", Dr. W.T. Minahan entreated Mrs Minahan as he stepped back ...'; Isidor Strauss declared that `"I will not go before the other men"'; the steel-heir Washington Augustus Roebling was last seen `leaning against the rail, light[ing] a cigarette and wav[ing] goodbye' after helping several ladies into the boats; and the writer and editor william T. Stead `retired to the first-class smoking room with a book'.1 Particularly powerful are the following examples: Benjamin guggenheim and his secretary gave away their lifebelts and `now stood resplendent in evening clothes. "We've dressed in our best ... and are prepared to go down like gentlemen"', eyewitnesses report them explaining. and mr. walter D. Douglas answered his wife's pleas to join her in a life-boat with only `"No ... I must be a gentleman"', a sentence which summarized all his values.2 These men lived and, more poignantly, died according to the rules of an ideal which had been in existence in Britain for centuries. It had changed and been modified over the ages, but it was still going strong by the time the Titanic went down, and held values which were understood, followed and admired albeit sometimes ridiculed as well all over the world. This book sets out to investigate the term `gentleman', and in particular its manifestations in the literature of the twentieth century. 1 All quotations from Walter Lord, A Night to Remember (london, 1978), pp. 83; 85; 86; 103. 2 Both quotations from Lord, A Night to Remember, pp. 104; 83. 4 The Image of the English Gentleman in Twentieth-Century Literature How to define the `Undefinable'? Before discussing presentations of the gentleman in literature, an attempt has to be made, if not to define, at least to illustrate the ideal. shirley robin letwin writes that `the "gentleman" conjures up images of frock coats, ancient vicarages, and well rolled lawns, of order and serenity'.3 The term gentleman is highly ambiguous and amorphous, and consequently almost impossible to pinpoint. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Hazlitt wrote that `what it is that constitutes the look of a gentleman is more easily felt than described. We all know it when we see it; but we do not know how to account for it'.4 In 1856, a contributor to Chamber's Journal pondered on `what a gentleman is supposed by different classes of people to be and not to be; how almost everybody has a particular and private account of him to give'.5 Philip Mason echoed this in 1982: `what was meant by this word [gentleman] is not at all easy to explain. It had different meanings in different mouths and the same person would use it in different senses.'6 Daniel Johnston wrote in 1901 for the Gentleman's Magazine that `the title of gentleman covers interpretations of a thousand shades, and is ... conveniently vague ...'.7 In 1925, Karel Capek noted that `what an English gentleman is cannot be stated concisely', and as late as 1965, Nikos Kazantzakis queried: "How can we define the gentleman?" I once asked one of the most perfect gentlemen of contemporary England, Sir Sidney Waterloo. "The gentleman," he answered me, "is he who feels himself at ease in the presence of everyone and everything, and who makes everyone and everything feel at ease in his presence." A correct definition, but how could it possibly include the whole indescribable atmosphere the invisible, quivering tilting of the scale between ego-worship and nobility, between sensitivity and psychological control, between passion and discipline of which the gentleman is molded. We catch an inkling of him from uncalculated, apparently insignificant details: a movement of the hand, a tone of voice, a kind of gait, a style of dressing, eating, amusement ... the cold invincible intensity with which he loves the countryside, sports, women, horses, The Times.8 even the Encyclopædia Britannica in 1929 concluded that: the word "gentleman," used in the wide sense with which birth and circumstances have nothing to do, is necessarily incapable of strict definition. For "to behave like a gentleman" may mean little or much, according to the person by whom the phrase is used; "to spend money like a gentleman" may even be no great praise; but "to conduct a Shirley Robin Letwin, `Tradition II: The Morality of the Gentleman', Cambridge Review (7 may 1976): 142. 4 william hazlitt, The Complete Works of William Hazlitt, Vol. 12: The Plain Speaker: Opinions on Books, Men and Things, ed. P.P. howe (london, 1912), p. 209. 5 Anonymous, `What is a Gentleman', Chamber's Journal 5 (1856): 399. 6 Philip mason, The English Gentleman: The Rise and Fall of an Ideal (london, 1993), p. 9. 7 Daniel Johnston, `The Evolution of the Modern Gentleman', Gentleman's Magazine 291 (July to December 1901): 189. 8 Karel Capek, Letters from England (London, 1944), p. 172; Nikos Kazantzakis, England (oxford, 1965), p. 174. The Gentleman An Elusive Term 5 business like a gentleman" implies a standard at least as high as that involved in the phrase noblesse oblige. In this sense of a person of culture, character and good manners the word "gentleman" has supplied a gap in more than one foreign language.9 In 1991 Hugh David elegantly circumvented even the attempt of defining the undefinable, by cunningly claiming that `to have done so would have been unnecessarily reductive'.10 This is an evasive but simultaneously important statement. The idea of the gentleman comprises so many values from behaviour and morals to education, social background, the correct attire and table manners that it would indeed be restrictive to limit it to just one brief, defining sentence. The beauty of the idea of the gentleman lies in the fact that it can be given an individual flavour to make it into a liveable ideal. The presentation of the gentleman in twentieth-century literature shows that it is up to the individual to take an abstract idea and turn it into an everyday reality. Attempts at a definition are complicated by the fact that not only has the ideal changed considerably throughout the ages, but it is also always tinged with subjective impressions, which points to the problem of representation. as such, the term `gentleman' shows similarities to that of other, related ambiguous terms: culture, Englishness, and class, of which David Cannadine writes that `a Briton's place in this class hierarchy is also determined by ... ancestry, accent, education, deportment, mode of dress, patterns of recreation, type of housing and style of life. all these signs and signals help determine how any one individual regards him- (or her-) self, and how he (or she) is regarded and categorized by others'.11 similarly, if one asked ten passers-by on the street for definitions of the gentleman, it is likely that one would end up with ten different explanations as Chamber's Journal's anonymous contributor had already pointed out in 1856. The same writer also, with considerable irony, elaborates that `when, therefore, we hear ourselves or others proclaimed to be "gentlemen" or "no gentlemen," we should consider, before being flattered or annoyed, who says it and what he or she is likely to mean'.12 according to this mocking author, the `term "gentleman" is mostly applied by the lower classes to those of their superiors who are most lavish and extravagant'.13 This notion of mere flattery for personal gain is interesting, and certainly had historical precedent. nowadays, many people react with discomfort when confronted with the term gentleman: it seems uncomfortably linked to class, images of feudal landlords or snobbish `toffs', while simultaneously raising issues of education, style, manners, or simply inner values ideas which seem, for many, incompatible. 9 Encyclopædia Britannica 14th edition (london, 1929), p. 123. 10 hugh David, Heroes, Mavericks and Bounders: The English Gentleman from Lord Curzon to James Bond (london, 1991), p. xii. 11 David Cannadine, Class in Britain (new haven, CT, 1998), p. 22. 12 Anonymous, `What is a Gentleman': 99. 13 Anonymous, `What is a Gentleman': 99. 6 The Image of the English Gentleman in Twentieth-Century Literature Commenting Characteristics Characteristics of the gentleman can be commenting as well as defining ones. While defining characteristics should be sought, not only are the commenting ones more entertaining, but they often shed more light on the ideal's idiosyncrasies. Inevitably, there is a lot of overlap, since many commenting characteristics also include defining ones. The distinction here is between personal and official opinions: commenting characteristics have subjective touches, whereas the defining ones are primarily dedicated to dictionary and lexical entries. among the plethora of commenting characteristics, surtees's claim that if you `call for Burgundy with your cheese ... they will know you are a gentleman' and Capek's declaration that `only the English lawn and the English gentleman are shaved every day' must be among the most amusing, while mason's cryptic comment that `a gentleman is always a man in a mask' is the most enigmatic.14 In the eighteenth century, Johnson still thundered that `any other derivation of this difficult word than that which causes it to signify "a man of ancestry" is whimsical', but attitudes had already begun to change.15 As early as 1714, Steele commented that `the appellation of Gentleman is never to be affixed to a man's circumstances, but to his Behaviour in them'.16 This attitude is most often echoed in literature, for example in Charles Dickens's Great Expectations, or Italo Calvino's classic The Baron in the Trees, in which the hero, Cosimo, reprimands his father by claiming that `a gentleman, my Lord Father, is such whether he is on earth or on the treetops ... if he behaves with decency'.17 Early in the nineteenth century Hazlitt commented that `a gentleman is one who understands and eschews every mark of deference to the claims of self-love in others, and exacts it in return from them'.18 John Stuart Mill wrote in 1851 that the term had gradually changed to include `conduct, character, habits, and outward appearance ...'.19 In 1862, James Fitzjames Stephen described the gentleman as `[n]either a good man, [n]or a wise man, but a man socially pleasant ...', and elaborated that `it is ungentlemanlike to swear; that no man deserves to be called 14 Surtees, quoted in Mason, The English Gentleman, p. 104; Capek, Letters from England, p. 171; mason, The English Gentleman, p. 8. surtees's combination of gentlemanliness and food is a recurrent one. most famous is lord Curzon's statement at a dinner at Balliol College that `No gentleman has soup at luncheon' (See Evelyn Waugh, `An Open Letter to the Honble Mrs Peter Rodd [Nancy Mitford] on a Very Serious Subject', in Nancy Mitford [et al.], Noblesse Oblige: An Enquiry into the Identifiable Characteristics of the English Aristocracy [London, 1956], p. 7).

The Gentleman An Elusive Term 7 a gentleman who would be guilty of the selfishness and treachery of seduction'.20 D.A.L. Morgan quotes from the proceedings of an English court of law which stated that `a gentleman is "a man who has no occupation"', an explanation which might lead to some confusion if applied today. 21 Cardinal newman, in 1865, concluded that `it is almost a definition of a gentleman to say he is one who never inflicts pain' and that `he has too much good sense to be affronted at insults, ... [is] too well employed to remember injuries, and too indolent to bear malice', a far remove from the swaggering, duelling gentleman of a century earlier.22 w.r. Browne stated in 1886 that `a gentleman is one to whom discourtesy is a sin and falsehood a crime', and `one who, whether in great things or small, whether in things inward or things outward, tries to act up to the old precept, "Do unto others as you would they should do unto you"'.23 H. Drummond affirms this: `the word "gentleman" ... means a gentle man a man who does things gently, with love. ... The gentle man cannot in the nature of things do an ungentle, an ungentlemanly thing.'24 or, as oscar Wilde ironically put it, `a gentleman never offends unintentionally'.25 Harold Laski stated that `the gentleman is, rather than does'; Odette Keun surmised that `he is a creature who does not hurt your feelings unnecessarily'; Letwin claims that `the gentleman is a revolutionary character who understands the value of tradition'; and Kazantzakis eventually reaches the verdict that `you don't need great education or wealth or lineage in order to be a gentleman; a certain loftiness of character is all that is demanded, along with a relatively comfortable interval of time. and these the Englishman frequently finds accessible to him. Finds them, or did find them in the past?'26 Kazantzakis's comments foreshadow the main question the twentieth century poses in regard to the gentleman: is the ideal dead, has the gentleman become superfluous, or does it (and he) still exist in today's society? And if so, in what form? In The British Aristocracy, Mark Bence-Jones and Hugh MontgomeryMassingberd claim that `the most illustrious noble of the realm values the name of gentleman above all his other titles'.27 They proceed to list several clichés about 20 James Fitzjames Stephen, `Gentlemen', Cornhill Magazine 5 (1862): 331, 330. 21 D.A.L.

The best-known supporter of this opinion is the oft-quoted King James I, whose reply to his old nurse's request to make her son a gentleman was `I'll mak' your son a baronet gin ye like, Luckie, but the de'il himself coudna' mak' him a gentleman'.29 nevertheless, being or becoming a gentleman through personal effort is something that every man should aspire to. Bence-Jones and Montgomery-Massingberd point out that, rather than following a set of rules, `behaving like a gentleman has always been more a matter of following the example of actual people than of conforming to an abstract code. ... Starting with the sixteenth-century hero Sir Philip Sidney, the British have always had their prototypes of the perfect gentleman'.30 literature has, over the centuries, been a perfect vehicle to shape and perpetuate such prototypes. Defining Characteristics The defining characteristics of the term gentleman are almost as manifold and as contradictory as the commenting ones. The etymology of the term has been traced thoroughly. according to the Encyclopædia Britannica: the word is formed of the french gentilhomme; or rather of gentil, "fine, fashionable, or becoming;" and the Saxon man, q.d. honestus, or honesto loco natus The same signification has the Italian gentilhuomo, and the spanish hidalgo, or hijo dalgo, that is, the son of somebody, or a person of note. If we go farther back, we shall find gentleman originally derived from the latin gentiles homo; which was used among the romans for a race of noble persons.31 however, it is not the history of the word as such which causes the problem, it is an exact definition of it. A look into a thesaurus shows that there are no synonyms for the term itself, while, for its adjective, `civil, civilized, courteous, cultivated, gallant, genteel, gentlemanlike, honourable, mannerly, noble, obliging, polished, polite, refined, reputable, suave, urbane, well-bred, well-mannered' are suggested.32 28 Bence-Jones and Montgomery-Massingberd, The British Aristocracy, p. 2. 29 Letwin, `The Idea of a Gentleman': 10. Bence-Jones and Montgomery-Massingberd emphasize this statement with a quote from Dion Boucicault's play London Assurance in which the character Sir Harcourt Courtly rebukes another character with: `the title of gentleman is the only one out of any monarch's gift, yet within the reach of every peasant. It should be engrossed by Truth - stamped with Honour - sealed with good-feeling - signed Man - and enrolled in every true young english heart'. The British Aristocracy, p. 2. 30 Bence-Jones and Montgomery-Massingberd, The British Aristocracy, p. 19. 31 Encyclopædia Britannica 4th edition (edinburgh, 1810), p. 498. here, it is interesting to note how the publishers advertised themselves and their work: `Encyclopædia Britannica; or a Dictionary of Arts and Sciences ... By a society of Gentlemen in Scotland [emphasis mine]'. See title-page of the Encyclopædia and entry in the British Library Catalogue. Learning, in the early nineteenth century, was still the prerogative of gentlemen. 32 The Collins Paperback Thesaurus in A-to-Z Form (glasgow, 1984), p. 218. The Gentleman An Elusive Term 9 none of those terms on their own can replace gentlemanly: it is only when they are combined that they fully illustrate the term. The 1929 edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica describes the gentleman as `in its original and strict signification, a term denoting a man of good family'.33 But the Encyclopædia falters when it comes to a clear-cut definition; instead it attempts to explain changes in the term over the centuries. whereas in the sixteenth century it was essential for a gentleman to have a coat of arms, the emphasis shifted in the eighteenth century to attitude and manners. The Encyclopædia states: `The word "gentleman" as an index of rank had already become of doubtful value before the great political and social changes of the 19th century gave to it a wider and essentially higher significance.'34 It then proceeds to list changes in definitions between earlier issues: In the fifth edition (1815) "a gentleman is one, who without any title, bears a coat of arms, or whose ancestors have been freemen." In the 7th edition (1845) it still implies a definite social status: "All above the rank of yeomen." In the 8th edition (1856) this is still its "most extended sense"; "in a more limited sense" it is defined in the same words as those quoted above from the 5th edition; but the writer adds, "By courtesy this title is generally accorded to all persons above the rank of common tradesmen when their manners are indicative of a certain amount of refinement and intelligence."35 `Refinement' and `intelligence' are keywords here, as more men become eligible for the appellation. The Encyclopædia concludes that ... the Reform Bill of 182 has done its work; the "middle classes" have come into their own; and the word "gentleman" has come in common use to signify not a distinction of blood but a distinction of position, education and manners. The test is no longer good birth, or the right to bear arms, but the capacity to mingle on equal terms in good society. In its best use, moreover, "gentleman" involves a certain superior standard of conduct, due ... to "that self-respect and intellectual refinement which manifest themselves in unrestrained yet delicate manners."36 This crucial quote highlights the increasing middle-class appropriation and adaptation of the term following the 1832 reform act. 33 Encyclopædia Britannica, 14th edition (1929), p. 123. 34 Encyclopædia Britannica, 14th edition (1929), p. 124. 35 Encyclopædia Britannica, 14th edition (1929), p. 124. 36 Encyclopædia Britannica, 14th Edition (1929), pp. 1245. Interestingly, a keyword search for gentleman in the online version of the latest Encyclopædia Britannica does not come up with any definition of the term. In fact, it has no listing under gentleman at all. Instead, it lists related terms such as `Gentleman Jim (American boxer)', `Gentleman's Magazine', `Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod', `Two Gentlemen of Verona', `Gentleman's Agreement', `A Gentleman Friend', `Gentleman's Relish', `Gentleman Film International' etc. see http://www.britannica.com. This could be interpreted as showing that the term gentleman on its own seems no longer to be regarded as important in contemporary society. as for the Encyclopædia, it is no longer in the hands of `a Society of Gentlemen in Scotland', but of an american publisher. 10 The Image of the English Gentleman in Twentieth-Century Literature finally, The Oxford Paperback Dictionary gives four different definitions: `1. a man of honourable and kindly behaviour. 2. a man of good social position. . (in polite use) a man. 4. the Gentlemen's, a man's public lavatory.'37 The emphasis lies with the first definition, and thereby on behaviour. In fact, the dictionary no longer considers ancestry relevant. This but especially so the appropriation of the term to denote a public convenience shows how much it has now been assimilated into everyday usage far removed from its original meaning. `Every Man for Himself' Let us briefly return to the fateful night of 15 April 1912. The men on board the Titanic had no need nor, if one wanted to be sarcastic, did they have the time to define the term gentleman. Their deeds spoke more than words: although or possibly because? their lives were at stake, they did the honourable thing. It was only after he had ensured that everything possible had been done for the women and children aboard that Captain smith gave the signal to his men to abandon ship: `"You've done your duty, boys. Now, every man for himself."'38 Duty here is my emphasis, and points at one of the keywords for every (prospective) gentleman: duty before personal interest, the good of the group (read: society) before that of the individual. however, the gentlemen of the Titanic highlight one problem which needs to be addressed: the reliability of eye-witness accounts and the related problem of myth creation. It is tempting, and one could almost say comforting, to believe that the men aboard the Titanic really did behave like gentlemen. But one has to be cautious. The sinking of the `unsinkable' Titanic achieved mythical status almost immediately, and the reports about the male passengers' alleged gentlemanliness point to the problem of reliability of representation. By the early twentieth century, traditional gentlemanly ideals were considered to be in decline: commerce was outweighing culture, business acumen more important than polished manners. The Titanic eyewitness accounts might consequently be an over-elaboration, possibly aimed at boosting a fading ideal. They might also have been the result of wishful thinking surely it would be a comfort to know that men behaved in such an heroic manner in a time of crisis?39 These possibilities have to be borne in mind. after all, it is a well37 The Oxford Paperback Dictionary, 2nd edition (oxford, 1983), p. 269. 38 lord, A Night to Remember, p. 109. 39 a similar myth was created with the death of scott of antarctica and his fellow explorers, in particular Captain oates whose epitaph on the cairn erected for him in the Antarctic reads `Hereabouts died a very gallant gentleman, Captain L.E.G. Oates of the Inniskilling Dragoons. In March 1912, returning from the Pole, he walked willingly to his death in a blizzard, to try and save his comrades, beset by hardships' (see the Concise Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, Second Edition [Oxford, 1981], p. 10). It is worth noting that a popular and critically acclaimed novelist like Beryl Bainbridge has dedicated two of her novels to those popular myths surrounding the figure of the gentleman: Scott and Captain oates, and the men of the Titanic. see The Birthday Boys (london, 1993) and Every Man for Himself (london, 1997). The Gentleman An Elusive Term 11 known fact that there were men on board who literally threw their values overboard in their scramble for the life-boats. The most prominent example was Bruce Ismay, managing Director of the white star line, commonly held responsible for dictating the Titanic's fatal speed. Ismay managed to get into Boat C. according to lord's book, public opinion immediately swung against him, and Ismay himself was aware of his `ungentlemanly' behaviour, retiring to Ireland where he lived in seclusion until his death in 1937.40 When reading Lord's account of the sinking of the Titanic, one consequently has to be aware that the eyewitness-accounts ought not to be trusted implicitly. But one also has to recognize that the men aboard the Titanic would have known what society expected of them: to sacrifice their lives for those of the more vulnerable passengers. This did not necessarily have to do with being a gentleman, but quite simply a man: men were traditionally expected by society to fight and protect the weaker members of society. In going against the expectations of society, the men aboard the Titanic knew that they risked their position in it. Since 1912 Captain Smith's `every man for himself' has taken on a different meaning: it now appears to come before doing one's duty. David ponders that the gentleman's traditional attributes, of `style ... honour, manners and the possession of the famous stiff upper lip ... are seemingly in equally short supply in today's aggressively "go-getting," nominally egalitarian, meritocratic, post-monetarist society'.41 similarly, Clive aslett laments that I was brought up to believe that tradition to some extent governed behaviour. ... One was encouraged to behave like a gentleman. It was thought a good thing that children should give up their seats on buses and trains. There seemed to be less emphasis on winning a match or a game than on avoiding conceit when having done so. ... It was always encouraged that a boy would put other people's interest over his own, and that the individual would give precedence to the group. Chivalry had not entirely perished. ... The code of honour of a nineteenth-century gentleman was not regarded as wholly laughable. we had modernism in architecture, modernism in the freedom of sexual relations, but modernism in ethical values had yet to arrive. now it has.42 Scopes and Aims The scope of this book does not allow for a detailed historical and sociological analysis of whether or not the gentleman, or, more precisely, gentlemanly behaviour has indeed declined so much. What it aims to do instead is to take a closer look at four representative creative writers of the twentieth century, and to show how they deal with the problems posed by literary presentations of the gentleman. The starting point for the discussion is Robin Gilmour's 1981 comment that `the gentleman has faded from the literary landscape because he has been absorbed by 40 see lord, A Night to Remember, pp. 131, 172. 41 David, Heroes, Mavericks and Bounders, p. xi. 42 Clive aslett, Anyone for England: A Search for British Identity (london, 1997), pp. 1567. 12 The Image of the English Gentleman in Twentieth-Century Literature democracy without being resurrected, as the aristocrat has been, into myth'.43 It is the main aim of this book to contradict this statement and to show that the gentleman is still alive and well as a literary trope. although gilmour and many of his colleagues argue that the gentleman has more or less disappeared from literature and public interest since the great war, I will argue that he has continued to be a prominent trope in twentieth-century writing, albeit in ever-changing manner. The following chapter will first provide a brief history of the development of the gentleman, before delineating the keywords of the ensuing discussion: Englishness and nostalgia. The term `gentleman' is not only generally used in conjunction with the adjective English, but gentleman has come to be appropriated as a symbol for quintessential Englishness. Because of its revered status, references to the gentleman are often made in a nostalgic manner, praising something which appears to be lost; something which existed in a past whose values were better than those of contemporary society. Because of this trend, there is the danger of closing one's eyes to the potential pitfalls of a revered ideal. Chapter will briefly outline the history of the gentleman in literature, paying special attention to nineteenth- and twentieth-century developments. The second section of the chapter will then highlight the theoretical approaches which will be used in the literary discussion which follows in Part Two of the book. In order to understand the individual authors' viewpoints, sociological, cultural and historical perspectives will have to be considered. In the process, foucault's discourses on power, deconstruction and aspects of gender studies will be taken into consideration. The four authors whose work will be examined in detail Siegfried Sassoon, anthony Powell, evelyn waugh and Kazuo Ishiguro are all concerned with interpretations of gentlemanly values. Depictions of the gentleman in literature often follow a similar pattern and are frequently concerned with similar values honesty, dignity, loyalty, a sense of duty, good manners. as such, they adhere to a narratological pattern which builds upon universally shared and understood values and ideas, but uses them for different means. The ensuing gentlemanly discourse of the individual novels, and consequently `his' literary function, have changed over the years. While certain authors deploy the figure of the gentleman in order to depict their social nostalgia for a time gone by, others use him to deconstruct the myths surrounding him, or to reflect changes in society. The fact that some authors use the trope of the gentleman to regress into nostalgia, while others react to it in order to make it more acceptable to contemporary readerships, highlights the importance of looking at individual novels not in isolation, but within their social, cultural and historical frameworks. This is of particular importance in the twentieth century, with its radically changing literary and critical trends. There were various factors which led to the choice of these particular four authors. sassoon is an important representative of the generation of the great war. Because sassoon was himself one of those young men whose ideals were allegedly ruined by the trench experience, his Memoirs of George Sherston are not only evocative war-memoirs, but are also concerned with how a typical young english gentleman 43 gilmour, robin, The Idea of the Gentleman in the Victorian Novel (london, 1981), p. 184. The Gentleman An Elusive Term 13 of his time dealt with the horrors of war and their effects on his gentlemanly outlook on life. Furthermore, it is interesting to explore how Sassoon's work is typical of, or contrasts with, that of his modernist contemporaries. The authors anthony Powell and evelyn waugh were both chosen because they published prodigiously during the twentieth century, and their writing careers spanned well over half of the century. Both authors had the reputation of being reactionary and snobbish, and of dealing with only a very small elitist social circle. while it is tempting to investigate (and possibly to contradict) these accusations, it will be more important to find out whether their outlook on society changed during their long careers. Powell in particular is a fascinating author in that respect, since his main work, the epic twelve-volume A Dance to the Music of Time, not only spans three decades, but also took as long to complete. attention will have to be paid to the competing literary trends of the time, in particular the `Angry Young Men' movement, which painted a bleaker picture of contemporary society than Powell's or Waugh's evocation of society's `Bright Young Things'. The chapters will have to query what the authors wanted to achieve with their particular pictures of society. finally, Kazuo Ishiguro is an author who brings not one, but three different perspectives to the topic: as a contemporary author, he is dealing with different issues in his depiction of the gentleman; as a Japaneseborn writer, he brings a fresh attitude to the British class system, and to that so very english institution of the gentleman. and lastly, having a servant as his protagonist, he contributes yet another perspective, from below, that of the servant quarters, rather than of the social insider. Ishiguro's novel is also written with historical hindsight. The book will then conclude with a brief look at three more contemporary texts, and at the different gentlemanly discourses they apply: John Fowles's The French Lieutenant's Woman, with its three different endings, brings a postmodern aspect to the topic of the gentleman; alan hollinghurst's The Swimming-Pool Library combines the discourse of the gentleman with the history of homoerotic writing; and william Boyd's Any Human Heart elegantly recreates a world not only echoing that of waugh and Powell, but introducing a protagonist who even claims their acquaintance. In summary, this book will outline how twentieth-century authors turn the ideal of the gentleman from the universal truth it was considered to be in the nineteenth century to a more personal one, each of them approaching it according to their own preferences.

What is the largest land-locked country in Africa?	Shakespeare's Plays Shakespeare's Plays Before the publication of the First Folio in 1623, nineteen of the thirty-seven plays in Shakespeare's canon had appeared in quarto format. With the exception of Othello (1622), all of the quartos were published prior to the date of Shakespeare's retirement from the theatre in about 1611. It is unlikely that Shakespeare was involved directly with the printing of any of his plays, although it should be noted that two of his poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece were almost certainly printed under his direct supervision. Here you will find the complete text of Shakespeare's plays, based primarily on the First Folio, and a variety of helpful resources, including extensive explanatory notes, character analysis, source information, and articles and book excerpts on a wide range of topics unique to each drama. Tragedies The story of Mark Antony, Roman military leader and triumvir, who is madly in love with Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Coriolanus (1607-1608) The last of Shakespeare's great political tragedies, chronicling the life of the mighty warrior Caius Marcius Coriolanus. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Hamlet (1600-1601) Since its first recorded production, Hamlet has engrossed playgoers, thrilled readers, and challenged actors more so than any other play in the Western canon. No other single work of fiction has produced more commonly used expressions . Earliest known text: Quarto (1603). Although there were earlier Elizabethan plays on the subject of Julius Caesar and his turbulent rule, Shakespeare's penetrating study of political life in ancient Rome is the only version to recount the demise of Brutus and the other conspirators. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). The story of King Lear, an aging monarch who decides to divide his kingdom amongst his three daughters, according to which one recites the best declaration of love. Earliest known text: Quarto (1608). Macbeth (1605-1606) Macbeth is one of Shakespeare's most stimulating and popular dramas. Renaissance records of Shakespeare's plays in performance are scarce, but a detailed account of an original production of Macbeth has survived, thanks to Dr. Simon Forman . Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Othello (1604-1605) Othello, a valiant Moorish general in the service of Venice, falls prey to the devious schemes of his false friend, Iago. Earliest known text: Quarto (1622). Celebrated for the radiance of its lyric poetry, Romeo and Juliet was tremendously popular from its first performance. The sweet whispers shared by young Tudor lovers throughout the realm were often referred to as "naught but pure Romeo and Juliet." Earliest known text: Quarto (1597). Written late in Shakespeare's career, Timon of Athens is criticized as an underdeveloped tragedy, likely co-written by George Wilkins or Cyril Tourneur. Read the play and see if you agree. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Titus Andronicus (1593-1594) A sordid tale of revenge and political turmoil, overflowing with bloodshed and unthinkable brutality. The play was not printed with Shakespeare credited as author during his lifetime, and critics are divided between whether it is the product of another dramatist or simply Shakespeare's first attempt at the genre. Earliest known text: Quarto (1594). Histories One of Shakespeare's most popular plays, featuring the opportunistic miscreant, Sir John Falstaff. Earliest known text: Quarto (1598). This is the third play in the second tetralogy of history plays, along with Richard II, Henry IV, Part 1, and Henry V. Earliest known text: Quarto (1600). Henry V is the last in the second tetralogy sequence. King Henry is considered Shakespeare's ideal monarch. Earliest known text: Quarto (1600). The first in Shakespeare's trilogy about the War of the Roses between the houses of Lancaster and York. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Part two of Shakespeare's chronicle play. Based on Hall's work, the play contains some historical inaccuracies. Earliest known text: Quarto (1594). Part three begins in medias res, with the duke of Suffolk dead and the duke of York being named Henry VI's heir. Earliest known text: Quarto (1595). Many believe Henry VIII to be Shakespeare's last play, but others firmly believe that he had little, if anything, to do with its creation. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). In the shadow of Shakespeare�s second tetralogy of history plays lies the neglected masterpiece, King John. Although seldom read or performed today, King John was once one of Shakespeare's most popular histories, praised for its poetic brilliance. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). More so than Shakespeare's earlier history plays, Richard II is notable for its well-rounded characters. Earliest known text: Quarto (1597). The devious machinations of the deformed villain, Richard, duke of Gloucester, made this play an Elizabethan favorite. Earliest known text: Quarto (1597). Comedies All's Well That Ends Well (1602-1603) In 1767, a scholar named Richard Farmer concluded that this play is really the revision of Shakespeare's missing Love's Labour's Won, which was likely written around 1592. It is considered a problem play, due primarily to the character Helena and her ambiguous nature. Is she a virtuous lady or a crafty temptress? Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). As You Like It is considered by many to be one of Shakespeare's greatest comedies, and the heroine, Rosalind, is praised as one of his most inspiring characters. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). This is Shakespeare's shortest play, which he based on Menaechmi by Plautus. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Cymbeline (1609-1610) This play, modeled after Boccaccio's Decameron, is often classified as a romance. It features the beautiful Imogen, considered by many to be Shakespeare's most admirable female character. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Love's Labour's Lost is a play of witty banter and little plot, written during the early part of Shakespeare's literary career, when his focus was on fancy conceits and the playful nature of love. Earliest known text: Quarto (1598). Considered a "dark" comedy, Measure for Measure was inspired by Cinthio's Epitia and Whetstone's Promos and Cassandra. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). The character of Shylock has raised a debate over whether the play should be condemned as anti-Semitic, and this controversy has overshadowed many other aspects of the play. Earliest known text: Quarto (1600). The Merry Wives is unique amongst Shakespeare's plays because it is set in Shakespeare's England. It features the Bard's beloved character, Falstaff. Earliest known text: Quarto (1602). A magical exploration of the mysteries of love, and one of Shakespeare's best-known comedies. Earliest known text: Quarto (1600). The story of two very different sets of lovers, Beatrice and Benedick and Claudio and Hero. The witty banter between Beatrice and Benedick is the highlight of the play. Earliest known text: Quarto (1600). Pericles, Prince of Tyre (1608-1609) Portions of Pericles are ripe with imagery and symbolism but the first three acts and scenes v and vi (the notorious brothel scenes) of Act IV are considered inadequate and likely the work of two other dramatists. The play was not included in the First Folio of 1623. In Shakespeare's sources, Pericles is named Apollonius. Earliest known text: Quarto (1609). The Taming of the Shrew revolves around the troubled relationship between Katharina and her suitor, Petruchio, who is determined to mold Katharina into a suitable wife. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Hailed as a stunning climax to the career of England�s favorite dramatist, The Tempest is a play praising the glories of reconciliation and forgiveness. Some believe that Prospero�s final speeches signify Shakespeare�s personal adieu from the stage. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Troilus and Cressida is difficult to categorize because it lacks elements vital to both comedies and tragedies. But, for now, it is classified as a comedy. Earliest known text: Quarto (1609). Shakespeare loved to use the device of mistaken identity, and nowhere does he use this convention more skillfully than in Twelfth Night. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). The tale of two friends who travel to Milan and learn about the chaotic world of courting. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). The Winter's Tale is considered a romantic comedy, but tragic elements are woven throughout the play. We have a first-hand account of a production of the play at the Globe in 1611. It is one of Shakespeare's final plays. Earliest known text: First Folio (1623). Today's Guess the Play	i don't know
"Can you identify the play by William Shakespeare i which the quote; ""Cowards die many times before their deaths"" comes from?"	Cowards die many times before their deaths - eNotes Shakespeare Quotes Cowards die many times before their deaths Caesar: "Cowards die many times before their deaths, The valiant never taste of death but once." Read on Owl Eyes This eText is now on Owl Eyes. Clicking this link will open a new window. Caesar's wife, Calpurnia, has had dreams in which her husband was murdered. At Caesar's request, the priests have sacrificed an animal which, upon being cut open, was discovered to have no heart. And so they sent word to Caesar that he should stay home on this fateful day, the ides of March, which the Soothsayer had already warned him about earlier in the play. Caesar muses, ""What can be avoided /Whose end is purposed by the mighty gods?" In other words, if the gods are predicting that he is going to die, then how will he get around it? He goes on to encourage his wife with the now-famous lines, finding it strange that men fear death so much, when death is inevitable in every man's life. He has been a strong and brave man, and has not wasted precious hours of his life anticipating tragedy.	Julius Caesar
Aston Merrigold first entered the pop charts as a member of which boy band?	What are some of William Shakespeare's greatest quotes? - Quora Quora My favorite has always been William Shakespeare's view of 'opportunity' Vs 'regret' from the play Julius Caesar", Act 4 scene 3 "There is a tide in the affairs of men Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries". Others that I think are great include: "Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them" - Twelfth Night "Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once". - Julius Caesar "This above all: to thine own self be true" - Hamlet Many may not know but there are plenty of everyday saying and quotes that were originally penned by William Shakespeare: "Good night, good night! parting is such sweet sorrow" - Romeo and Juliet "What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet" - Romeo and Juliet "This is the short and the long of it" - The Merry Wives of Windsor "A plague o' both your houses!" - Romeo and Juliet "I cannot tell what the dickens his name is." - The Merry Wives of Windsor "We have seen better days".Timon of Athens "The better part of valor is discretion" King Henry "Now is the winter of our discontent" - Richard III "Every why hath a wherefore." - The Comedy of Errors "But love is blind and lovers cannot see" - The Merchant of Venice "The world's mine oyster" - The Merry Wives of Windsor "Can one desire too much of a good thing?" - As You Like It "It is too full o' the milk of human kindness" - Macbeth, "I must be cruel, only to be kind" - Hamlet "What's done cannot be undone." - Macbeth "Neither a borrower nor a lender be" - Hamlet "The lady doth protest too much, methinks" - Hamlet "Et tu, Brute!" - Julius Caesar "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears" - Julius Caesar "Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more" - King Henry V "Although the last, not least" - King Lear "Nothing will come of nothing." - King Lear "A horse! a horse! my kingdom for a horse!" - King Richard III "I will wear my heart upon my sleeve" - Othello Absence from those we love is self from self - a deadly banishment. Expectation is the root of all heartache. No legacy is so rich as honesty. The evil that men do lives on after them, the good is oft interred with their bones. Love to faults is always blind, always to joy is inclined, lawless winged and unconfined, and breaks all chains from every mind. Love sught is good, but given unsought is better. The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool. [Edit]Last one was added on a reminder through the comments. 410 Views	i don't know
What is the largest land-locked country in the world?	Landlocked Countries: 44 Countries Have No Ocean Access By Matt Rosenberg Updated November 15, 2016. Approximately one-fifth of the world's countries are landlocked, meaning they have no access to the oceans. There are 44 landlocked countries that do not have direct access to an ocean or ocean-accessible sea (such as the Mediterranean Sea). Why Is Being Landlocked an Issue? While a country such as Switzerland has thrived despite its lack of access to the world's oceans, being landlocked has many disadvantages. Some landlocked countries rank among the poorest in the world. Some of the issues of being landlocked include: Lack of access to fishing and oceanic food sources High transportation and transit costs because of a lack of access to ports and world shipping operations Geopolitical vulnerabilities from dependence on neighboring countries for access to world markets and natural resources Military limitations because of the lack of naval options What Continents Have No Landlocked-Countries? North America has no landlocked countries, and Australia is rather obviously not landlocked. continue reading below our video What are the Seven Wonders of the World Within the United States, over half of the 50 states are landlocked with no direct access to the world's oceans. Many states, however, do have water access to the oceans via the Hudson Bay, Chesapeake Bay, or Mississippi River. Landlocked Countries in South America: South America has just two landlocked countries: Bolivia and Paraguay. Landlocked Countries in Europe: Europe has 14 landlocked countries: Andorra, Austria, Belarus, Czech Republic, Hungary, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Moldova, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Switzerland, and Vatican City. Landlocked Countries in Africa: Africa has 16 landlocked countries: Botswana, Burundi, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Chad, Ethiopia, Lesotho, Malawi, Mali, Niger, Rwanda, South Sudan, Swaziland, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Lesotho is unusual in that it is landlocked by just one country (South Africa). Landlocked Countries in Asia: Asia has 12 landlocked countries: Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bhutan, Laos, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Nepal, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Note that several of the countries in western Asia border the landlocked Caspian Sea, a feature that does open some transit and trade opportunities. Disputed Regions that Are Landlocked: Four regions that are not fully recognized as independent countries are landlocked: Kosovo, Nagorno-Karabakh, South Ossetia, and Transnistria. What Are the Two Doubly-Landlocked Countries? There are two, special, landlocked countries that are known as doubly-landlocked countries, completely surrounded by other landlocked countries. The two doubly-landlocked countries are Uzbekistan (surrounded by Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and, Turkmenistan) and Liechtenstein (surrounded by Austria and Switzerland). What Is the Largest Landlocked Country? Kazakhstan is the world's ninth largest country but is the world's largest landlocked country. It's 1.03 million square miles (2.67 million km2) and is bordered by Russia, China, the Kyrgyz Republic, Uzbekistan , Turkmenistan, and the landlocked Caspian Sea . What Are the Most Recently Added Landlocked Countries? The most recent addition to the list of landlocked countries is South Sudan which gained independence in 2011. Serbia is also a recent addition to the list of landlocked countries. The country formerly had access to the Adriatic Sea, but when Montenegro became an independent country in 2006, Serbia lost its ocean access.

In which year was the £1.00 coin introduced into circulation?	Which Countries are Landlocked? (with pictures) Hobbies Which Countries are Landlocked? Written By: L. S. Wynn Edited By: L. S. Wynn Last Modified Date: 09 January 2017 Copyright Protected: Top 10 facts about the world According to the CIA World Factbook, there are 44 countries and other areas that are landlocked. In simplest terms, this means that the country is devoid of coastline. This status is critical for many nations because it prevents unfettered access to the open ocean which, in turn, allows for trade with most of the countries in the world. Goods produced in a country without access to open water, for example, must always be transported through another country before traveling to their destination. The status of being landlocked does not appear to be just a superficial aspect of a country. For example, the average gross domestic product ( GDP ) per capita for the world is approximately $15,000 US Dollars (USD). Of the world's landlocked countries, only a few, such as Switzerland and Austria , have higher GDPs per capita than this average. The average of all landlocked countries is only about $13,000 USD, but this average is skewed by the inclusion of countries like Lichtenstein , which has a per capita GDP of $118,000 USD. Two countries in the world are double landlocked, which means that they are surrounded only by other landlocked countries: Lichtenstein and Uzbekistan . The largest landlocked country is Kazakhstan , which is the ninth largest country in the world, covering just over 1 million square miles (2.65 million square kilometers). Africa includes a total of 15 landlocked countries; Asia has 12; Europe has 15; and South America has 2. Here is a list of all of them, organized by continent: Africa anon996657 Post 30 Lesotho is landlocked and is surrounded entirely by only one other country - South Africa. Are there other such landlocked countries - that is countries whose entire border is with just one country? anon939268 Post 28 @anon939087: I saw your comment and looked on a map to make sure I knew what I was talking about. A landlocked country does not have a coastline. That means it does not have an ocean bordering it directly. You can eventually get to the ocean by traveling enough rivers, but there is no direct ocean access, like Italy has, for instance, or France. The Aral Sea is really a lake, so it doesn't count as coastline. Missouri in the U.S. is a landlocked state. Just because the Mississippi River borders it and the Mississippi eventually empties into the Gulf of Mexico doesn't mean Missouri isn't landlocked. So yes, according to the maps, Uzbekistan is landlocked. anon939087 Post 27 If Uzbekistan is bordered by the Aral sea, and the Aral sea is connected to the Black Sea, and the Black Sea is connected to the Mediterranean sea, then not only is Uzbekistan not double landlocked, it isn't even landlocked. So those who say it is landlocked are simply wrong. anon345307 South Sudan became a landlocked country in 2011. ZipLine Post 25 I think Central Asian landlocked countries are experiencing a lot of financial difficulty because of transit issues. That's why OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe) is running a project to make transit easier through Asia. Eventually, there is probably going to be a vast transit system from China, through Central Asia into Europe. Landlocked developing countries will be better off after that. discographer Post 24 @anamur-- I'm not sure, but that's a good question. As far as I know, every country imposes a tariff on goods that enter its borders. So a landlocked country that has goods imported through another country would have to pay some kind of tariff or fee to that country unless they have a non-tariff agreement. But I'm not sure if this makes trade more costly for landlocked countries than for countries that are not landlocked. That might be the case. Does anyone else have input on this? serenesurface Post 23 Does the fact that a landlocked country relies on neighboring countries to be able to import goods, make trade more expensive for them? anon189731 Post 22 why have you become so angry at the West Bank? Isn't it an individual territory that bears its own identity of thousands of years? Come on guys. Recognize us. anon163237 Post 21 it seems that if a country is bordered by an inland sea it can still be considered landlocked, as long as it does not have access to the major oceans or waterways. In that case, isn't the term "landlocked" a misnomer? Semantically, landlocked should strictly be defined as locked in on all sides by land. Could someone please explain to me why that is not the case? anon162972 Post 20 At most previous comments: You must accept the facts of geography and the rules instituted by geographers and the international society. Countries that do not have a coastline on an ocean or on major waterway which has the size of a waterway of a strait or larger (not a river) as a connection to an ocean are landlocked, Vatican City is a country, and Tibet is a part of China. Please consider what you are saying and research it before jumping to conclusions anon145157 Post 18 Comment 14 (ag47) - you're missing something. Notice the editor's reply to the other people who asked the same thing. anon145097 Post 17 Regrettable the list includes "West Bank," which is not a country. Even more regrettable that the list omits Tibet. anon144988 Regarding comment 5, which says in part: "1) Lichtenstein as the world's only double land locked country. 2) Mongolia is the world's only landlocked country. " If no. 2 is true, then there can't be any double land locked countries outside the borders of Mongolia. Lichtenstein is not inside Mongolia. ag47 Post 14 The word landlocked means (or at least ought to mean) "locked in on all sides by land". How are countries like Kazakhstan which are surrounded at least for some parts of their borders by lakes or seas (it is irrelevant really if the lakes or seas themselves are inland) considered landlocked? Or am I missing something here? anon85648 which continent has larger coastline? either europe or africa? how? anon67452 Post 11 What do you mean by double landlocked? Is that like the ones which border the country don't have coastlines either? anon65479 i'm thanking this website because it helped me in my project. anon23044 Post 7 Bolivia is not landlocked, it has a lake on the western border. Please change this it's inaccurate. Thank you. Moderator's reply: Actually, Bolivia is landlocked, because it doesn't have a coastline that gives it access to the open ocean. anon18102 How is Armenia considered a European country? Geographically speaking it's a bit overrated. anon5874 Post 5 The above says that Lichtenstein and Uzbekistan are the world's only double land locked countries and that Kazakhstan is the world's largest land locked country. Does the Caspian Sea not count as a sea? If so, then Kazakhstan is not land locked and Uzbekistan is not double land locked. This would leave 1) Lichtenstein as the world's only double land locked country. 2) Mongolia is the world's only landlocked country. Moderator's reply: That is a good question! A landlocked country is generally defined as a country that is entirely or nearly entirely surrounded by other countries. if it is bordered by a landlocked sea, such as the Caspian Sea, it is still considered landlocked, mostly because it is restricted from sea trade. one important thing to note is that the Caspian Sea is also often categorized as a lake, and countries bordering it thus still classed as landlocked. lamaestra Post 4 About the Western Bank: This list covers countries and areas. According to the World CIA Factbook, the source for this data, while the West Bank is not recognized as an independent country, it is generally referred to as an entity in some ways separate from Israel. The West Bank is therefore included in this list as a landlocked "area." This list now shows 44 landlocked countries and areas. 42 of the names refer to recognized countries, while two, the West Bank and Vatican City, fall into the "area" category. The World CIA Factbook includes "a wide variety of dependencies, areas of special sovereignty, uninhabited islands, and other entities in addition to the traditional countries or independent states" to create this list of landlocked countries or areas. anon4643 Post 3 OK, so the CIA Factobook says 43 countries and areas. What does "areas" mean? The list on this site is only 41 countries. What are the other 2 areas? anon3711	i don't know
Nick Carter first entered the pop charts as a member of which boy band?	Nick Carter Nick Carter (Singer - Backstreet Boys Actor - DEAD 7) Please check your city’s home page for guest appearance days! More Views Description Sparking his career at the tender age of 12 years old, Nick Carter became an international pop superstar as the youngest member of iconic boy band, Backstreet Boys. Known for his boyish good looks and heartthrob status, Carter’s 22-year entertainment career has spanned far beyond the stages of sold out arenas, with an array of projects in television and film, and as a philanthropist and author. Most recently Carter paired up with Jordan Knight, fellow boy band member from 90’s sensation New Kids on the Block, for a new collaborative album project, Nick & Knight. Nick also returned to television in 2014 for a new love story reality series on VH1, I Heart Nick Carter, which documented his journey to the alter with fiancé Lauren Kitt. As a standout member of the Backstreet Boys, Carter was named one of People Magazine’s “50 Most Beautiful People in the World,” dubbed the “most gorgeous celebrity on the planet” by E! Online, and named “The Biggest Teen Idol” by Teen People Magazine. To date, the Backstreet Boys are the best-selling boy band in history and are one of the world’s best-selling music artists of all time. The group also solidified one of the largest record deals ever, signing a $60 million deal with Jive Records in 1999. Since taking the world by storm in 1995, the band has sold over 130 million records worldwide and has earned five Grammy nominations and countless Billboard Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, American Music Awards, RIAA Awards, People’s Choice Awards, and, most recently, an honorary star on the iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame. To date, the Backstreet Boys have toured around the globe several times over, released eight studio albums and have broken several records, including the U.S. record for most albums sold in one year, selling over 11 millions copies of their third studio album, Millennium, in 1999. In 2002 Nick released his debut solo album through Jive Records, Now or Never, which debuted at #17 on the Billboard 200 chart and was certified Gold in the U.S., Japan and Canada. In 2004 Carter starred in his first horror film, The Hollow, which was a remake of the horror classic Sleepy Hollow. The film’s producer, Dan Levin, touted Carter as a natural, and cast him in the lead role alongside Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco. Nick also appeared in a number of other film roles, sharing the screen with the likes of Tom Arnold, and has made cameos on television series like the CW Network’s reprised 90210. In 2005 Carter and his Backstreet brothers returned with their fifth studio album, Never Gone, which was certified Gold in six countries, went Platinum in America and Canada, and 2x Platinum in Japan. The album featured the smash hit single, ‘Incomplete,’ and hit the Top 10 in 15 countries. In December of 2011, Nick appeared on The Dr. Phil Show’s Second Changes special to talk about his own personal struggle with drugs and alcohol and how he managed to successfully transform his life for the better. The inspiring segment lead to a book deal with Dr. Phil’s Bird Street Books publishing company. The self-help memoir, Facing The Music And Living To Talk About It, released in the spring of 2013 and delves into Carter’s life changing moments, which he hopes will serve as a valuable and inspirational resource for other people in similar situations. Nick released his second solo album, I’m Taking Off, in 2012 and supported the project with a tour across America. The album’s producers include some notable names that reinforce its diversity: Muckala (Backstreet Boys), Toby Gad (Beyonce), Brent Kutzle (One Republic), Noel Zancanella (Rashaan Ahmad), Carl Falk (Gavin DeGraw), Rami (Celine Dion), Matthew Gerrard (Jesse McCartney) and MIDI Mafia (50 Cent). In 2014, Carter recorded and released a collaborative album with Jordan Knight from News Kids On The Block and the duo announced their nation-wide tour on Good Morning America. Their album, Nick & Knight, debuted at #24 on the US Billboard 200 and #14 on the Canadian Albums Chart. From there the guys hit the road, playing over 30 sold out shows to screaming fans across the United States. Then, in the fall of 2014, Nick and longtime girlfriend, Lauren Kitt, made their reality TV debut as a couple in the VH1 reality series, I Heart Nick Carter. The show followed the newly engaged couple’s journey to the alter and gave viewers an inside look at how Nick and Lauren learn to balance demanding careers, outrageous families and planning a wedding. Being a couple while on the road can be rocky, but their love overcomes all obstacles as they shared their big day on national television. Nick Carter has finally found true love. Recently, Carter headlined the cast of season 21 of DANCING THE WITH STARS! At the 2015 San Diego Comic Con, Carter announced that he is partnering with the production company, The Asylum, to co-write, direct and star in a zombie Western movie titled Dead 7. The made-for-TV film is set to also star famous boyband members from O-Town, 98 Degrees, and some of Carter's bandmates from the Backstreet Boys. DEAD 7 premiered APRIL 1st on the SyFy channel to rave reviews!	Backstreet Boys
Which chain store founded by John Hargreaves opened its 200th outlet in Croydon in September 2006?	Backstreet Boys' 'In A World Like This' Brings The Boyband Back To The Billboard Charts \| The Huffington Post Backstreet Boys' 'In A World Like This' Brings The Boyband Back To The Billboard Charts 10/08/2013 09:06 am ET Getty Backstreet is back in a big way. The famed boy band entered the Billboard Adult Pop Songs chart this week for the first time since 2007. The band's latest single, "In a World Like This," bowed at No. 34, according to Billboard. "In a World Like This" earns the now-grown men of the Backstreet Boys their highest debut on the chart, beating out previous record-holder "I Want it That Way," which entered the chart at No. 35 in 1999. The single is the title-track off of BSB's eighth studio album, which hit No. 5 on the Billboard 200. "It's definitely a combination of vintage Backstreet with the signature harmonies and melodies, but also, you know, we definitely have our ears and our eyes open to what's out there right now in the music scene," Backstreet Boys' Howie Dorough told HuffPost Entertainment about the record earlier this year. "We're just always trying to evolve. We always try to set the bar and push the envelope a little bit and always try to change things up with each record."	i don't know

Public consultations Payments & Markets Find out how the ECB promotes safe and efficient payment and settlement systems, and helps to integrate the infrastructure for European markets. 10 cent Andorra Andorra signed a Monetary Agreement with the European Union on 30 June 2011. As a result, Andorra can use the euro as its official currency and issue its own euro coins. All the coins feature the 12 stars of the European flag. The 10, 20 and 50 cent coins show the Romanesque church of Santa Coloma. Andorra Austria Austria chose to produce a series of coins illustrating flowers, architecture and famous people from its history. The designs were chosen by a national panel and public opinion poll. Austrian artist Josef Kaiser created the designs. St. Stephen's Cathedral, one of the jewels of Viennese Gothic architecture and a popular tourist venue, is depicted on this coin. Austria Belgium Belgium's euro coins were designed by Jan Alfons Keustermans, Director of the Municipal Academy of Fine Arts of Turnhout. There are three series of coins in circulation. All are valid. The first series depicts King Albert II in the inner part of the coin, while the royal monogram - a capital "A" underneath a crown - among 12 stars, symbolising Europe, as well as the year of issuance appear in the outer part. In 2008, Belgium slightly modified the design in order to comply with the European Commission's guidelines. The coins of the second series also show King Albert II, but the royal monogram and the year of issuance now appear in the inner part of the coin, as do the mint marks and the country code for Belgium, "BE". In 2014, Belgium introduced the third series of euro coins, which show King Philippe, his royal monogram "FP" and the country code for Belgium, "BE". The mint marks appear on either side of the year of issuance. Belgium Cyprus Featured on the 10, 20 and 50-cent coins is the Kyrenia ship, a trading vessel which dates back to the fourth century BC and a symbol of Cyprus's seafaring history and its importance as a centre of trade. Cyprus Estonia The design for the national side of Estonia’s coins is the same for all denominations. It features a geographical image of Estonia and the word "Eesti", which means "Estonia". Estonia Finland Finland chose three designs based upon motifs similar to those used before on national coins. 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50-cent coins: these show the Finnish heraldic lion in a reproduction of a design by the sculptor Heikki Häiväoja. The heraldic lion in a variety of designs has been used on several Finnish coins over the years, for example on the 1 markka coins between 1964 and 2001. Finland France Over 1,200 designs were considered for the national side of the French coins. A panel chaired by the Minister for Economic Affairs and Finance chose three designs, each for certain specific denominations. The panel consisted of experts in numismatics, artists, a former Member of the European Commission (Christine Scrivener), Members of Parliament, the French Mint Director Emmanuel Constans, the General Engraver Pierre Rodier and the actress Irène Jacob, along with members of professional bodies. They selected the following designs: 10, 20 and 50-cent coins: the theme of the sower is a constant in the history of the French franc. Designed by Laurent Jorlo, "this modern, timeless graphic represents France, which stays true to itself, whilst integrating into Europe". France Germany German officials and experts in numismatics chose three different designs for their euro coins. 10, 20 and 50-cent coins: the Brandenburg Gate, a symbol of the division of Germany and its subsequent reunification, is the motif used on these coins. The perspective of the design, by Reinhard Heinsdorff, emphasises the opening of the gate, stressing the unification of Germany and Europe. Germany Greece The Minister for the National Economy and the Governor of the Bank of Greece chose the designs for their euro coins from a set of proposals presented by a national technical and artistic committee. The designer of the winning motifs was sculptor Georges Stamatopoulos, sponsored by the Bank of Greece. There is a separate design for each denomination. Rigas Fereos (Velestinlis) (1757-98) is featured on this coin. He was a forerunner and leading figure of the Greek enlightenment, as well as a visionary and herald of Balkan liberation from Ottoman rule. Greece Ireland The Government of Ireland decided on a single national design for all Irish coin denominations. They show the Celtic harp, a traditional symbol of Ireland, decorated with the year of issue and the inscription "Éire" − the Irish word for Ireland. The harp shown was designed by Jarlath Hayes. Ireland Italy In Italy, the euro coin designs were subject to scrutiny by a national technical and artistic committee before being presented to the nation on RAI UNO, Italy's largest national television station. A different design has been selected for each denomination, chosen from masterpieces by Italy's famous artists. This coin commemorates one of the greatest triumphs in Italian art. It shows one of the most famous works in the world, the "Birth of Venus" by Sandro Botticelli. Italy Latvia The 10 cent coin shows the large coat of arms of the Republic of Latvia. The designer is Laimonis Šēnbergs. Latvia Lithuania Lithuania’s euro coins show the coat of arms of the Republic of Lithuania, Vytis, the country of issuance "LIETUVA" and the year of issuance "2015". The coins also feature the 12 stars of the European flag. They were designed by the sculptor Antanas Žukauskas. Luxembourg Yvette Gastauer-Claire designed the coins by agreement with the Royal Household and the Luxembourg Government. All the Luxembourg coins bear the profile of His Royal Highness Grand Duke Henri. They also bear the year of issue and the word "Luxembourg" written in Luxembourgish ("Lëtzebuerg"). Luxembourg Malta The 10, 20 and 50-cent coins bear the Emblem of Malta, a shield displaying a heraldic representation of the Maltese national flag and supporting a mural crown that represents the fortifications of Malta and denotes a city state. The shield is bounded on the left by an olive branch and on the right by a palm branch, symbols of peace traditionally associated with Malta, forming a wreath tied at its base by a ribbon which carries the inscription "Repubblika ta' Malta" (Republic of Malta). Monaco There are two series of coins in circulation. The first series depicts, on the €2 coin, HSH Prince Rainier III. A double portrait of HSH Prince Rainier III and HSH Hereditary Prince Albert appears on the €1 coin. The 10, 20 and 50-cent coins depict the Prince’s seal. The coat of arms of the Sovereign Princes of Monaco is shown on the 1, 2 and 5-cent coins. The second series shows, on the €2 and €1 coins, a portrait of HSH Prince Albert II. HSH Prince Albert’s monogram is depicted on the 10, 20 and 50-cent coins. The coat of arms of the Sovereign Princes of Monaco is the main feature of the design on the 1, 2 and 5-cent coins. Monaco Netherlands The Netherlands chose two designs by Bruno Ninaber van Eyben, showing Queen Beatrix, for the first series. There are two series of coins in circulation. Both are valid. The second series, introduced in 2014, shows King Willem-Alexander and bears the inscription "Willem-Alexander Koning der Nederlanden" (King of the Netherlands). 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50-cent coins: First series: Queen Beatrix is shown encircled by the inscription "Beatrix Koningin der Nederlanden" (Queen of the Netherlands). Second series: Superimposed on an effigy of the King Willem-Alexander are the words "Willem-Alexander Koning der Nederlanden" (King of the Netherlands). The mint marks appear on either side of the name. Netherlands Portugal Three different euro designs were chosen from entries to a national competition. Designer Vítor Manuel Fernandes dos Santos, who drew his inspiration from historical symbols and the seals of the first King of Portugal, Dom Afonso Henriques, won the competition with the following motifs: 10, 20 and 50-cent coins: these depict the royal seal of 1142 as the centrepiece of the design.

Mark Alan Good investment. Yes the $1 coins were very large up to 1989, but in 1990 with the introduction of our smaller $1 and $2 coins, this size was merely changed to $5, the new lowest amount on a banknote. First commemorative $5 was one displaying Anzac 75th anniversary which was a joint issue with Australia. So since 1990 its been a $5 coin, but essentially it was the same size blank as the old $1. Silver versions of these coins were proofs, whereas the Cupro nickel ones were standard Uncirculated coins. I myself collect the latter as I am too poor to get the silver versions, which now retail at $129 or $139 each and sets are $169 or $189. BU ones on the other hand cost a measly $35. The Cook Islands dollar is pegged to the kiwi along with Tokelau and Niue, our colonies. But they use their own designed coins and they issue many commem coins of dubious provenance. They use Kiwi notes. The Cooks also had a triangular $2 and large gold coloured scalloped $5 coin, both have been shrunk now.

Three banks in Scotland are authorised to issue notes: Bank of Scotland, Clydesdale Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland. There are also four note-issuing banks in Northern Ireland: Bank of Ireland; AIB Group (which trades as First Trust Bank in Northern Ireland), Northern Bank and Ulster Bank. Banknotes issued by all seven are legal currency and can be accepted throughout the UK. But it doesn't necessarily mean they will be. The Association of Commercial Banknote Issuers states: "The term 'legal tender' has very little practical meaning as far as ordinary, everyday transactions are concerned, and it has no bearing on the acceptability of authorised banknotes as a means of payment …" Crucially, it adds: "The acceptability of any means of payment, including banknotes, is essentially a matter for agreement between the parties involved." English shopkeepers who are unfamiliar with them may refuse to accept Scottish or Northern Irish notes. This is usually because they cannot tell whether the note is genuine, rather than their feeling towards the Scots.

The present currency dates from 1850 and with a few minor exceptions, all the coins 10 cents to 2 Francs are the same size as they were in 1850. The currency is the Swiss Franc known as CHF (Confederation Helvetia Franc). This is in French, one of Switzerland's 4 languages, although the biggest language is German (74%) - Upper German, Swiss dialect, then French (21%) Italian (5%) and Romance (under 1%). The last is only recently appeared on the banknotes and is spoken by a few thousand people in south eastern Switzerland near the borders with Austria and Liechtenstein. This language is closer to Romanian and Moldovan than anything French or Italian. You have to cross borders into this country and this also includes Liechtenstein on the Austrian side. The small duchy also uses the Swiss Franc. This set I purchased in Vaduz, in order from lowest to highest. The currency is 100 Rappen = 1 Frank (German), 100 Centimes = 1 Franc (French), 100 Centesimi = 1 Franchi (Italian), not sure of Romanish translation. 1 Rappen/Centime, in copper minted until 2006, design of these coins dates from 1948 replacing earlier laureated designs like the 5 to 20 centimes. Not really used since 1980s. 2 Rappen, as 1 Rappen, but no longer minted after 1974, coin shown is dated 1967. 5 Rappen, - Cupronickel 1879 to 1979, Brass coloured aluminium bronze 1980 - now. Design showing Helvetia head and Laurel is from 1879, the Laurel also surrounded 1850 - 1878 coins which had a shield instead of value and Helvetia was seated on earlier coins. Helvetia wears a band with the word "Libertas" on these 3 coins (5,10,20 Rappen/Centimes) 10 Rappen, Cupro nickel since 1879, same designs as 5 Rappen. Coins minted between 1850 and 1879 made out of billion which was very slight traces of silver. There were minor metal changes in 1918/19 and 1932/39. Only the figure is shown as well due to the different languages of Switzerland. 20 Rappen, As above, except larger, again same size, composition and design since 1879. You can easily find 125 year old coins still in circulation (I found one from 1912 when I was in Switzerland last year!) ½ Franc, this coin was silver at .900 fine until 1967. It became cupronickel in 1968. The design of Helvetia also dates from 1879 along with other design elements. These coins are often confused with 10 Rappen/Centimes as they are similar size, given one was silvera nd one was not. The way to tell them apart, is the 10 Rappen like the 5, 10 and 20 has a smooth edge, the ½ Franc, 1, 2 Francs have milled edges. The franc coins are denominated Fr. as the word for it starts with Fr in all 4 languages and English. 1 and 2 Francs, like the above both show full length portraits of Helvetia and have the value surrounded by laurel. Earlier coins (1850 - 1878) had the shield and a seated Helvetia. Both were silver until 1967 and became Cupronickel in 1968. 5 Franc, the design on this coin is much later dating from 1921 or 1922, the coin was originally 25 grams, but shrunk to 13.2 grams in 1931, and the coin became cupronickel in 1968. Swiss coins are still held up by a 20% metal backing, but after 1931 were largely held up by face value alone (Why the 5 Franc was shrunk in size and weight). Gold coins were issued as well for bullion and use as coinage until 1931. These included 5 to 20 Francs and a specially large 100 Francs. Various 5 Franc coins were issued in Shooting festivals from the 1840s to 1940s. 5,10,20 and 50 Franc coins are issued as Bullion and non circulating commemoratives to this day. With Jura becoming a separate canton in 1979, all Swiss coins had 23 stars instead of 22 stars from 1983 onwards, each represents a separate canton in Confederation (Although 24 if you include Liechtenstein which is a separate dukedom. Banknotes are more straight forward, unlike the coins, the designs are updated every 15 years or so.

Most of the time, restricted quantities are released only for sets. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sammarinese_euro_coins The list shows that the 1 to 5 cent coins had one public minting only in 2004, and that 10 cent coins have only ever been minted for sets. So I am not too annoyed I paid well over face for this set, even if the 50 cent was a circulation piece. Each coin shows a different scene peculiar to San Marino, better images in the wikipedia article. 1 Cent = 3rd tower 2 cents = Statue of Libertas (Symbol of the oldest free republic in the world going back 1700 years to St. Marin who founded it) 5 cents = 1st tower 10 cents = National Basilica 20 cents = St. Marin holding model of San Marino in style of 15th century painter Guercino 50 cents = The three towers of San Marino 1 Euro = Coat of arms in elaborate shield 2 Euros = Town hall (Built in 1894). Of the set I know my 1 cent to 10 cent are set only coins and the 20/50 cent arer circulation ones, the Euro coins I am unsure of as the list only goes up to 2012 and they are 2013. When I bought them at one of the numerous shops there selling guns, stamps and coins, the vendor told me strict year sets cost more and a mixed set like this was perfect for the tourist. I think I paid like €20 for it and the year sets were like €80 or something absurd like that. He was friendly and gave me a mint €2 San Marino coin in my change. They had something for every pocket, sets of Euro coins going up to the 20 or 50 cents only for like €5 or so, and even boxes of loose coins you could buy at marked up prices, 50 cents for a 1 to 5 cent and up to like €11 for the 2 € , mainly as some people may have a few coins already and don't want to fork out for a whole set, yet there was a discount buying a set. Plus this loose coin thing would be great for those wanting all the years. San Marino has the collectable trade sewn up!

A 'Cran' is used to measure what?	cran cran In Great Britain, at least as early as the 18th century – 20th century, a unit of capacity for fresh herring before cleaning, since 1852 the quantity needed to fill 37½ imperial gallons (about 6.03 cubic feet, or 170.5 liters). From the Gaelic crann, a measure for herring. Sometimes spelled crane. Under the Herring Industry Board's rules, and Weights and Measures Regulations, any herring not sold by the cran must be sold by weight. A cran typically contains about 1200 fish, but can vary from 700 to 2500.¹ The cran originated in Scotland as a heaped measure. A standard but bottomless 30-gallon herring barrel was filled to overflowing with fish, and then the barrel was lifted off. Because the fish were heaped, the resulting pile contained more than 30 gallons of herring – observers estimated around 34 wine gallons² (others say 35 to 36). An Act of 18153 allowed the Commissioners of the Fishery Board to define the size of the cran, which they did in 1816, setting it at 42 wine gallons. In 1832 it was legally redefined as 45 wine gallons. The 1852 redefinition was simply a restatement of 45 wine gallons in imperial gallons.¹ In 1908 the cran was made a legal measure in England and Wales,4, having previously been legal only in Scotland. In the United States, the size of the cran was fixed “from and after the first day of June, 1816, the cran to be used for the purchase and sale of fresh herrings...shall be of the content or capacity of forty-two gallons English wine measure.”5 1.

Mark Anthony Mill. The Ancient Ordinances and Statute Laws of the Isle of Man, Carefully copied from, and compared with, the Authentic Records … Douglas: Printed at the Phoenix Press, 1821. Pages 465-469. 2 Before discussing the measure peculiar to the Scotch Fisheries, let us first see the necessity of authorising the same. Big catches of fish must be landed and dispatched to their destinations as quickly as possible, owing to their perishable nature. To weigh the fish or measure it in the ordinary way would not only take too long, but would be altogether unnecessary, because if a difference of two or three fish were made between two baskets, their value would be altogether infinitesimal, and the probabilities are that any snall shortage in one basket would be made up in another. Moreover, the ordinary wooden measures of capacity are altogether unsuitable for allowing the water and slime to drain off when filling. The Scotch Fishermen, therefore, used baskets known as quarter-crans. But in reality they were used as “measures,” and not merely as “containing vessels,” … and from their mode of construction could not be placed on the same footing as measures which were multiples of authorised units. The Herring Fishery (Scotland) Act, 1889, by section 4, therefore authorised the cran and quarter-cran measures, when duly branded, as the only legal measures of capacity in the herring industry of Scotland, but also permitted the sale of herrings “by weight, or number, or in bulk.” The capacity of the cran had previously been fixed in a Notice issued by the Fishery Board for Scotland, dated May 15, 1852, at Edinburgh, as being equal to 37½ Imperial gallons. The stamped wooden cran measure has always been reckoned the standard measure when any dispute arose between seller and buyer, but as it is too unhandy for fishermen to use, the quarter-cran basket measure is really the only measure now used in the herring fishery. Regulations have been issued since the passing of the 1889 Act, minutely describing the construction of the quarter-cran, and the internal measurements. If the contents of a basket with large intervening spaces between the uprights of the sides can be given in gallons, it may be said the quarter-cran contains 9 3/8 gallons, equal to 42.618 liters. The Quarter-Cran, showing the raised centre, the branded piece of hardwood beneath each cane handle, 1½ inches broad, &c.; pieces of hoopwood (6 in number), 1 inch broad, bark outermost and equi-distant with willows in between; also the binding, waling and cane fitching, according to precise instructions issued by the Fishery Board of Scotland, the Quarter-Cran being the only “legal” local measure in use in the United Kingdom.

Her Roman equivalent was Diana, but who was the Greek goddess who was the virgin goddess of hunting?	cran cran In Great Britain, at least as early as the 18th century – 20th century, a unit of capacity for fresh herring before cleaning, since 1852 the quantity needed to fill 37½ imperial gallons (about 6.03 cubic feet, or 170.5 liters). From the Gaelic crann, a measure for herring. Sometimes spelled crane. Under the Herring Industry Board's rules, and Weights and Measures Regulations, any herring not sold by the cran must be sold by weight. A cran typically contains about 1200 fish, but can vary from 700 to 2500.¹ The cran originated in Scotland as a heaped measure. A standard but bottomless 30-gallon herring barrel was filled to overflowing with fish, and then the barrel was lifted off. Because the fish were heaped, the resulting pile contained more than 30 gallons of herring – observers estimated around 34 wine gallons² (others say 35 to 36). An Act of 18153 allowed the Commissioners of the Fishery Board to define the size of the cran, which they did in 1816, setting it at 42 wine gallons. In 1832 it was legally redefined as 45 wine gallons. The 1852 redefinition was simply a restatement of 45 wine gallons in imperial gallons.¹ In 1908 the cran was made a legal measure in England and Wales,4, having previously been legal only in Scotland. In the United States, the size of the cran was fixed “from and after the first day of June, 1816, the cran to be used for the purchase and sale of fresh herrings...shall be of the content or capacity of forty-two gallons English wine measure.”5 1.

[section on tarred nets omitted] And whereas, in Consequence of the Frauds practised by the present Mode of buying and, selling Fresh Herrings in the Isle of Man and on the Coasts thereof, by Tale, it is become expedient that Rules aud Regulations should be established for the future Purchase and Sale of the said Fish by Measure commonly called a Cran: Be it therefore further enacted, that from and after the Expiration of one Calendar Month from the Promulgation of this Act, all Fresh Herrings which shall be bought and sold in the said Island, or on the Coasts thereof, (whereof the Quantity of such Purchase or Sale shall exceed a Half-cran) shall be by the Measure commonly called the Cran or Half-Cran ; and that the Cran to be used for the Purchase and Sale of Fresh Herrings as aforesaid, shall be of the Contents or Capacity of forty-two Gallons English Wine Measure, reckoning from the outermost Extremities of the Staves, and that it shall be made of Oak Staves completely seasoned; the Staves not to be under two Inches, nor to exceed four Inches in Breadth, and no Croze allowed ; and the Length of the Cran shall be thirty-one Inches of made work ; that the Bung Diameter, exclusive of the Thickness of the Staves, shall be twenty-one Inches, and that the Diameter of the Ends, taken correctly from Inside to Inside at the very Extremity thereof, shall be eighteen Inches, so that the main Diameter will be twenty Inches and one-tenth Part of an Inch, and the Contents forty-two Gallons and One-half; but Care to be taken at the Adjustment of the Measure, and before it is branded, to reduce the Cran to the exact Guage of forty-two Gallons, by paring a little from the Ends of the Staves. And be it further enacted, That the Contents or Capacity of the Half-Cran shall be twenty-one Gallons English Wine Measure; that the Staves shall be of the same Quality and Thickness required for the Cran, and from two to three Inches in Breadth; and the Length of the Half-Cran shall be twenty-one Inches of the made work ; and the Bung Diameter, exclusive of the Thickness of the Staves, eighteen Inches, and the inside Diameter of the Ends sixteen lnches; the main Diameter will thus be seventeen Inches; and the said Half-Cran, before it is branded, to be reduced to the exact Guage of twenty-one Gallons English Wine Measure, by paring the Staves as before directed with respect to the Cran. And be it further enacted; That no Cran, or Half-Cran or Measure shall be used, until it shall have been presented to and approved of by one of the High Bailiffs of this Isle; and that upon the said High Bailiff being satisfied that the Measure is in every respect conformable to the before mentioned Regulations, he shall cause the same to be branded in his Presence with an hot Iron bearing the Figure of a Crown thereon; and that the Iron or Stamp of the Crown shall be applied to the Outside of four different Staves, two at each End, care being had to place the Brand on the Joint at the one End which was not applied to on the other. And be it further enacted, That upon the approval and branding of every such Cran, or Half-Cran, or Measure, the said High Bailiff shall be entitled to have and receive the Sum of one Shilling British, from the Person or Persons presenting the said Cran, or Half-Cran, or Measure, to be branded as aforesaid. And be it further enacted, That if at any Time after the Promulgation of this Act, any Person or Persons shall Purchase or Sell any Fresh Herrings, (whereof the Quantity of such Purchase or Sale shall exceed a Half-Cran), otherwise than by the said Cran or Half-Cran, such Person or Persons shall be subject and liable to a Penalty or Forfeiture not exceeding ten Pounds British, nor less than three Pounds British, for every such Offence, at the Discretion of the Court herein after mentioned. And any Cran, or Half-Cran, or Measure, not so marked or branded as aforesaid, which shall be made use of in the buying, or receiving, or selling, or delivering of Fresh Herrings in the Isle of Man, or on the Coasts thereof, every Person or Persons so making Use thereof shall forfeit such Cran, or Half-Cran, or Measure; and also any Sum not exceeding ten Pounds British, nor less than three Pounds British, at the Discretion of the said Court. And any Person or Persons, not authorized by Virtue of this Act, branding any Cran, or Half-Cran, or Measure, with the Marks or Characters abovementioned, or with any Marks or Characters counterfeiting the same, shall forfeit the Sum of fifty Pounds British Money. And be it further enacted, That it shall and may be lawful for all Officers of His Majesty's Customs within or belonging to this Isle, to search for and seize any such Cran, or Half-Cran, or Measure, as shall not be marked or branded conformable to this Act, as well as such Tarred Net or Nets as aforesaid.

Pages 465-469. 2 Before discussing the measure peculiar to the Scotch Fisheries, let us first see the necessity of authorising the same. Big catches of fish must be landed and dispatched to their destinations as quickly as possible, owing to their perishable nature. To weigh the fish or measure it in the ordinary way would not only take too long, but would be altogether unnecessary, because if a difference of two or three fish were made between two baskets, their value would be altogether infinitesimal, and the probabilities are that any snall shortage in one basket would be made up in another. Moreover, the ordinary wooden measures of capacity are altogether unsuitable for allowing the water and slime to drain off when filling. The Scotch Fishermen, therefore, used baskets known as quarter-crans. But in reality they were used as “measures,” and not merely as “containing vessels,” … and from their mode of construction could not be placed on the same footing as measures which were multiples of authorised units. The Herring Fishery (Scotland) Act, 1889, by section 4, therefore authorised the cran and quarter-cran measures, when duly branded, as the only legal measures of capacity in the herring industry of Scotland, but also permitted the sale of herrings “by weight, or number, or in bulk.” The capacity of the cran had previously been fixed in a Notice issued by the Fishery Board for Scotland, dated May 15, 1852, at Edinburgh, as being equal to 37½ Imperial gallons. The stamped wooden cran measure has always been reckoned the standard measure when any dispute arose between seller and buyer, but as it is too unhandy for fishermen to use, the quarter-cran basket measure is really the only measure now used in the herring fishery. Regulations have been issued since the passing of the 1889 Act, minutely describing the construction of the quarter-cran, and the internal measurements. If the contents of a basket with large intervening spaces between the uprights of the sides can be given in gallons, it may be said the quarter-cran contains 9 3/8 gallons, equal to 42.618 liters. The Quarter-Cran, showing the raised centre, the branded piece of hardwood beneath each cane handle, 1½ inches broad, &c.; pieces of hoopwood (6 in number), 1 inch broad, bark outermost and equi-distant with willows in between; also the binding, waling and cane fitching, according to precise instructions issued by the Fishery Board of Scotland, the Quarter-Cran being the only “legal” local measure in use in the United Kingdom.

Which 'A-road' connects London and Portsmouth?	Surrey LondonA3 takes a trip down the A3 road from London, England, to Portsmouth. The road starts north of London Bridge and ends at Portsmouth Point. It is a road with dozens of interesting stopping points, a road that has been travelled by many fascinating characters. The route, about 75 miles long, connects two of the most important stretches of water in England: the Pool of London and Portsmouth Harbour. It has a key role in the history of London, London docks, commercial shipping and the Royal Navy. It is expected by 2012, to run between two iconic pieces of twenty-first century architecture, the Shard and the Spinnaker, via Hindhead Tunnel, the longest non-estuarial road tunnel in the United Kingdom. The route starts at Bank, runs down King William Street and over London Bridge to Borough High Street. It exits the city via Elephant & Castle, Wandsworth, Putney and Wimbledon, down beside Cobham, over the M25, then past Guildford and Godalming. It then travels west of Haslemere over, but soon to be under, Hindhead, and on past Liss, Liphook and Petersfield. It splits off as the A3(M) motorway north of Havant, while the old A3 takes traffic through Waterlooville, and the Portsmouth districts of Cosham, North End, Landport, Southsea, Old Portsmouth, ending at Portsmouth Point. The A3(M) meanwhile joins the A27 (the south coast road to Brighton) and the M275 to carry traffic into Old Portsmouth via Landport. Scores of interesting characters have travelled the route: Samuel Pepys, William Cobbett, Daniel Defoe, Lord Nelson, Jane Austen, HG Wells, Sir Josiah Child, heroes and villains, and both at once (Harry Redknapp). And many more. Just off the road, with varying degrees of just-offness, there are dozens of interesting places and sites, such as Winchester, Fareham, Alton, Chichester, Isle of Wight, Hayling Island, Ripley, Farnham, etc. This site will look at people and places entirely according to the whim, eccentricity, prejudice and leisure of the LondonA3 editor and anyone else who chooses to contribute, correct errors, or write in. (The editorï¿½s decision on publishing such matters will be as generous as possible, inevitably arbitrary, probably unfair, always undemocratic, and final.)	A3

In which year did actor Sid James die?	Advanced Placement U.S. Government and Politics Mr. Whitney, Room 4 Norclay Campus, NKCHS GLOSSARY OF POLITICAL TERMS - A - absentee ballot - A ballot marked by a registered voter and mailed to a board of elections before the date of an election, as by a person who will be out of town or working at the polling place on that day or by an ill or disabled person who cannot go to the polling place, and now also by senior citizens over a certain age. The advantages of absentee voting are convenience, speed, and economy. However, mail-in voting does present the problem of possible fraud: duplicate ballots could be cast, ineligible voters could cast ballots, or ballots could be "lost in the mail." One safeguard against fraud is the standard requirement that a voter must sign the envelope containing the ballot. Envelopes and ballots are separated at the board of elections before counting. appropriations - The last phase of the Congressional budget process for a fiscal year. The amounts authorized for spending on given programs, agencies, and government functions are approved for disbursement, or appropriation, from the U.S. Treasury. at large - Representing an entire state or other district rather than only one of its subdivisions. Vermont and six other states each elect their single U.S. Representative at large. authorizations - The early phase of the Congressional budget process for a fiscal year. The Presidentï¿½s budget recommendations for given programs, agencies, and government functions and those proposed within the Congress are discussed and debated. These actions result in the approval, or authorization, of specific spending limits. - B - baiting - The practice of attacking or harassing a candidate with insults, distortions, etc., to provoke an angry reaction.ï¿½ Also, the practice utilized by candidates for public office to attract voter support through the use of racially-charged rhetoric or ï¿½code wordsï¿½ (sometimes referred to as ï¿½race-baitingï¿½). balanced budget - A governmentï¿½s annual budget in which receipts are equal to outlays. Only the federal government has the authority to engage in long-term deficit spending. State laws mandate a balanced budget. While a balanced federal budget is to be preferred, there are some advantages in having an "unbalanced budget." Deficit spending can provide extra funds to stimulate the economy and create jobs during an economic downturn. This benefit must be weighed against the dangers of large deficits, such as devaluation of the currency and inflation in the cost of goods and services. ballot - A piece of paper, computer card, ticket, etc. by which a vote is cast. ballot box stuffing - Putting fraudulent ballots into a ballot box to affect the outcome of an election. The use of voting machines has helped to reduce this illegal practice. The jocular slogan "Vote early and vote often" is a reference to this activity. ballot proposition - A policy question that must be decided by the voters during a primary or general election: see referendum and initiative, the two basic kinds of ballot proposition. bandwagon effect - The tendency for a candidate or proposal that seems to be winning to gather additional support simply because of being ahead; momentum: also called the "snowball effect." beauty contest - A simple straw vote or other selection process that has no effect on the allocation of delegates to a party nominating convention. Beltway, the - The Beltway refers to Washington, D.C., especially when regarded as the center of U.S. government and politics. The name comes from the expressway around the District of Columbia and nearby areas. bicameral legislature - A legislature consisting of two separate chambers or houses: see unicameral legislature. bill - A draft of a law that has been formally introduced into a legislature for consideration. After a bill is passed and signed by the President or by the governor of a state, it becomes law. A bill is identified with the letters "HR" in the U.S. House of Representatives and "S" in the Senate, followed by an assigned number. Bill of Rights - The first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution. These amendments deal with basic individual liberties such as freedom of speech, assembly, religion, and the press; protection against self-incrimination in a legal proceeding, unreasonable search and seizure, and cruel and unusual punishment; and the right to a speedy and fair trial. bipartisanship - Cooperation on an issue or issues by two political parties, usually the two major parties controlling a government. Blue Dog Democrat - A member of the Democratic Party whose views are ideologically aligned most closely with those of moderate Republicans. After the Republican Party took control of the U.S. House in 1994, 21 conservative Democrats formed what they called the "Blue Dog Coalition." They hoped to temper some of the more extreme objectives of the majority party and work with the Republicans to achieve common goals, such as a balanced federal budget. boll weevil - A conservative Democratic politician from a state in the southern U.S.: a slang term. Buckley v. Valeo - Landmark 1976 Supreme Court decision on campaign finance law that upheld the Federal Election Campaign Actï¿½s disclosure requirements, contribution limits, and provisions for public funding of presidential election campaigns. The Court ruled that spending limits cannot be imposed by law, except for the limits accepted voluntarily by presidential candidates who receive public funds, because this would have the effect of restricting "free speech." Thus, the ruling allows for unlimited spending by Congressional candidates (they do not receive public funds), and by persons or groups that campaign for or against a candidate, but do not coordinate their activities with any candidate or campaign. The ruling also says that candidates who do not receive public money do not have to limit spending of their own personal funds on their campaigns. bully pulpit ï¿½ term used to describe the presidentï¿½s use of his office to communicate directly with the people of the U.S., especially when attempting to influence public opinion and gather public support. - C - Cabinet - The group of official advisors to the President. The Cabinet is composed of the heads of the executive departments of government, including the Secretaries of State, Defense, and the Treasury. Cabinet officials are chosen by the President and approved by the Senate. There is no requirement that the President either consult with the Cabinet or follow its advice. However, the policy of consulting regularly with advisors dates back to the administration of George Washington, and all subsequent Presidents have followed this policy to a greater or lesser degree. campaign spending limitations - Federal or state laws that put limits on the amount of money that candidates can spend to seek political office. For example, the Federal Election Campaign Act provided for the allocation of funds that amounted to about $62 million for each major partyï¿½s presidential candidate in 1996. If the candidate accepts this money, then no additional funds may be raised. canvassing - The process of attempting to win votes by contacting voters directly. The candidate or a campaign worker typically contacts voters either door-to-door or by telephone. Canvassing is conducted increasingly via email or the Internet. caucus - A meeting of party members for selecting delegates to a state or national nominating convention. In the 18th century, caucuses were local gatherings that became centers for political debate and political activity. Several of the early presidential candidates were selected at such caucuses until the 1830s, when national parties and national conventions came into prominence. Those who favor the caucus system cite the eligibility of the average citizen to participate and the benefits of face-to-face debate. Those who oppose the system cite the tendency of such meetings to be dominated by party leaders or to be sidetracked by individuals with strong political views that may not be representative of the party. centrist - A person with moderate political opinions and policies. city clerk - A municipal administrator whose duties vary greatlyï¿½from recording the minutes at city council meetings to carrying out functions similar to those of a city manager. city council - The legislative body of a municipal government. The powers and duties of city councils vary but generally include the passing of local laws, or ordinances, and control over municipal expenditures. city manager - The chief executive of a city operating under a council-manager form of government. The council-manager system is a form of municipal government in which an elected, usually nonpartisan, council sets policy, passes ordinances, and appoints the city manager, who administers the day-to-day operations of the municipality under the councilï¿½s supervision. Almost half of all U.S. cities operate under such a system. closed primary - A direct primary election in which the voters must declare party affiliation and may vote only for candidates of their party. coattails - The ability to increase the chances of electoral victory of oneï¿½s fellow party members on the strength of oneï¿½s own popularity or influence. The popular politician is often said to "have coattails." Other candidates hope to secure victory by "riding on the (popular politicianï¿½s) coattails." Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) - A nonprofit, nonpartisan corporation, established in 1987 to sponsor the presidential and vice-presidential debates and to undertake research and educational activities relating to the debates. The CPD sponsored all the debates in 1988, 1992, and 1996. It establishes criteria on a nonpartisan basis for participation in the debates. In addition to the eligibility requirements for office established by the Constitution, the CPD requires that candidates must have their names on the ballot in enough states so as to have a mathematical possibility of securing a majority vote in the Electoral College. In addition, candidates must demonstrate that they have the support of at least 15 percent of the electorate, as determined by five national polling organizations. The schedule for debates in the campaign 2000 cycle is: Presidential Debate on October 3 at the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston, MA; Vice Presidential Debate on October 5 at Centre College in Danville, KY; Presidential Debate on October 11 at Lake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC; Presidential Debate on October 17 at Washington University in St. Louis, MO. All the debates will be televised on a major network. Congress - The legislative branch of the U.S. government that makes the nationï¿½s laws. The U.S. Congress is composed of the House of Representatives and the Senate. The Constitution gives Congress "all legislative powers" of the federal government. At the heart of Congressï¿½s lawmaking powers is its "power of the purse," its control over government taxing and spending. The Constitution grants to the Congress a wide range of powers, including the authority to coin money, regulate trade, declare war, and raise and equip military forces. Congressional district (CD) - Any of the political subdivisions into which the nation is divided for electing members to the House of Representatives. There are 435 Congressional districts. Currently, each district contains approximately 570,000 people. However, seats in the House are reapportioned every ten years, after the decennial census. Although the number of seats and, consequently, the number of Congressional districts has been fixed at 435, individual states may gain or lose districts as a result of reapportionment. conservative - A conservative is a person to the right of center on the U.S. political spectrum. Of the two main political parties, the Republican Party is regarded as being the more conservative. Conservatives tend to uphold tradition and oppose major changes in laws and institutions. Change, when thought to be necessary, should be gradual and minimal. Conservatives generally oppose "big government," organized labor, social programs that benefit the lower socio-economic class, and civil rights and civil liberties legislation; they tend to support free-market economic policies, low taxes, increased defense spending, and those economic policies that tend to be attractive to the wealthy, owners of businesses, investors, etc.. constituency - All the people, especially the voters, who are served by a particular elected official, especially the constituents of a legislator. The people who live in a Congressional district are the constituents of a Representative. Constitution (U.S.) - The Constitution is the document containing the fundamental law of the United States. The original document, comprising seven articles, was ratified in 1789. The first ten amendments (the Bill of Rights) were adopted in 1791. The U.S. Constitution is the oldest written constitution continuously in force. The famous opening words, "We the people . . . .," assert that the government derives its power from the consent of the American people. The Constitution lays out the composition and structure of the federal government and enumerates the powers of its three branches. The powers that are not delegated to the federal government are, under the 10th Amendment, "reserved to the States, or to the people." The Constitution also describes the procedure for adopting amendments. There are now 27 amendments, the most recent ratified in 1992. convention - An official gathering of the delegates of one party to select candidates for office and formulate party policies (the partyï¿½s platform). National party conventions are held during the summer before November presidential elections. The presidential and vice-presidential candidates (the presidential ticket) are nominated by the delegates attending their partyï¿½s national convention. Delegates are from the each of the states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the various U.S. Territories. cosponsor - Any of the additional members of a legislature who show their support for a piece of legislation proposed by its sponsor by signing the bill before it is introduced. county - The basic unit for administrative management of state government typically governed by an elected board or commission. Each state determines for itself how many counties it will have. Connecticut and Rhode Island have no counties at all. The titles for elected county officials vary and include supervisors, judges, jurors, and commissioners. The county is largest administrative subdivision of most states in the U.S. The structure of the county system and the duties and powers of county officials are determined by each state and vary widely from state to state. In addition to various administrative functions, the county may function as an important subdivision in the structure of a stateï¿½s judicial system. county clerk - The secretary to a county board, whose job includes maintaining county records. This is an elected office in more than half the states. county commissioner - An elected member of the governing body of a county government. In some states, county commissioners are called supervisors. - D - dark horse - An almost unknown contestant regarded by few people as a likely winner. A person who gets or may get the nomination unexpectedly, often by a compromise. deficit - The amount by which budget expenditures exceed government revenues, or income, in a given fiscal year. delegate - A representative to a nominating convention, especially a national party convention. Also a member of the lower house of the legislature in Maryland, Virginia, or West Virginia. Also a nonvoting Member of Congress, representing the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, or the Virgin Islands of the United States. (The nonvoting Member of Congress from Puerto Rico is called the Resident Commissioner.) delegate, super - A new category of national convention delegate created by the Democratic Party in 1984 to ensure that public officials and party officials could attend and participate in conventions as delegates. Restoring the voice of the party leadership but traditionally remaining uncommitted to any candidate, superdelegates are chosen at caucuses and state conventions. The Republican Party does not have superdelegates but traditionally selects party leaders as delegates. democracy - Government in which the people hold the ruling power either directly or through elected representatives. The concept originated in ancient Greece but was in practice much different from what it is understood to be today. Democracy is used generally to denote political systems which operate with the participation and consent of the citizens, as through the practice of regular elections. democracy, direct - Any governing system in which decisions are made directly by the people rather than by elected representatives. Examples include processes such as the initiative and referendum, by which citizens vote directly to enact laws, and the New England-style town meeting. democracy, representative - A form of government in which citizens rule through elected representatives or proxies. Representatives are put up for reelection periodically in order to keep them accountable to the people whom they represent. The United States is an example of a representative democracy. Democratic Party - One of the two major political parties in the United States; the oldest of the two. It emerged in the late 1820s from a split in the Democratic-Republican Party, which had, in turn, developed from the Republican Party led by Thomas Jefferson. The party has adhered to various policies over its history. Today, it is generally characterized as the more liberal of the two major parties and as being more favorably disposed toward the working class and the poor, with a greater tendency to favor government expenditures for social welfare programs. In the last decade, however, the party has moved toward the center of the political spectrum. direct primary election - A preliminary election in which candidates for public office are chosen by direct vote of the people rather than by delegates at a convention. In a closed primary, voters must declare a party affiliation and may vote only for candidates of their party. divided government - A situation, in federal or state government, in which the President or governor is a member of one political party and at least one chamber of the legislature is controlled by the other party. Divided government occurs frequently in the U.S. political system. Historically, its impact has been to discourage radical change and to motivate the members of both parties to come to a compromise on proposed legislation. - E - Election Day - The Tuesday after the first Monday in November in an election year (election of federal candidates) election, midterm - An election for seats in the U.S Senate and House of Representatives that occurs in the middle of a Presidentï¿½s four-year term. For example, the Congressional election of 1998 was a midterm election. Midterm elections are also called "off-year elections." The results are sometimes interpreted as a popular expression of opinion regarding that presidentï¿½s performance for the first two years of the term. Midterm elections determine one third of the U.S. Senate and all members of the House of Representatives, as well as many state and local officials. elector - A person who elects others; qualified voter. A member of the Electoral College. Electoral College - The group of representatives that formally elects the President and the Vice President. The number of electors from each state is equal to the sum of the stateï¿½s Senators and Representatives in the Congress. The District of Columbia received the right to be represented by electors in 1961 with the ratification of the 23rd Amendment. Today, the Electoral College has 538 representatives. The Founding Fathers rejected the idea of direct elections. This was, of course, a time when communication and travel were difficult and there were no national parties. In the first presidential election, George Washington and John Adams were elected President and Vice President, respectively, by the Electoral College. There was no popular vote. The power to determine the method of choosing electors belongs to the states. Generally, the parties select the slate of electors, who are then chosen by popular vote. The electors will assemble in their respective state capitals on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December. According to the Constitution, the electors may exercise their own discretion in voting, but in practice all the votes in a given state go to the presidential candidate who has received the plurality of the popular vote. The candidate who becomes the President will require at least 270 electoral votes. Some have proposed replacing the Electoral College with a system of direct elections. Such proposals would require amending the Constitution. A system of direct elections would not only reduce the power of the two major political parties, but would also reduce the importance of the states in the electoral process. electronic voting - The use of electronic equipment and computerized systems to tabulate votes. There is no fully integrated electronic system for tabulating the votes in national elections at this time. Electronic voting is used in some municipal elections. An electronic voting system is used for certain roll call votes in the House of Representatives. entitlement - Any of the benefits to which one is entitled, or to which one is given a legal right, by meeting the eligibility requirements of some government program. Entitlement programs include Social Security, Medicare, and Veteransï¿½ pensions. executive branch - The branch of the government that administers the laws and affairs of the nation. According to Article II of the Constitution, "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States." The President is called the Chief Executive. The executive branch is the machinery by which the Chief Executive carries out the duties of the office. The executive branch is made up of the Executive Office, the executive departments, and a wide array of independent regulatory agencies. The Executive Office comprises various individuals and agencies that work directly with the President. It includes the White House office staff, the Presidentï¿½s physician, and various advisors and assistants, such as speechwriters. The Office also includes various agencies, such as the National Security Council and the Office of Management and Budget. The executive departments include the Departments of State, Defense, the Treasury, Justice, Interior, Commerce, Agriculture, Labor, Transportation, Energy, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Education, and Veterans Affairs. The heads of these departments make up the Presidentï¿½s Cabinet. The independent agencies administer a wide range of programs that touch upon every Americanï¿½s life daily. The agencies are empowered to establish rules and impose penalties. Among the 100-plus agencies are the Environmental Protection Agency, the Federal Communications Commission, the Federal Housing Administration, and the Federal Reserve System. exit poll - A poll taken of voters as they leave the place of voting. Such polls are often conducted and widely reported by the media. The pollster asks a small percentage of the voters whether they voted for or against particular candidates and issues. Presumably, such polls should be more accurate than polls taken weeks or months before an election, when many voters may not be committed to voting a certain way. - F - fat cat - A slang term for a wealthy, influential individual who contributes heavily to a political party or campaign. Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) - Act of Congress passed in 1971 that overhauled existing laws regulating contributions to and expenditures for political parties and candidates in federal elections. The Act was amended in 1974 (at which time the Federal Election Commission was created), in 1976 (after the Supreme Courtï¿½s decision in Buckley v. Valeo), and in 1979. The FECA sets limits on the source and amount of political contributions and has established public disclosure requirements for those who make contributions. Despite these reforms, there is great and ongoing concern over soft money contributions to the two major political parties. Federal Election Commission (FEC) - An independent regulatory agency created by Congress in 1974 for the purpose of enforcing the terms of the Federal Election Campaign Act. The Commission is made up of six members who serve six-year terms. Commissioners are chosen by the President and must be confirmed by the Senate. No more than three commissioners may be members of the same political party. Chairmanship of the Commission rotates on an annual basis. federal government - The central government of the United States, created by the union of the states under the Constitution. fiscal year (FY) - A 12-month period of financial activity, designated for budgetary purposes. The U.S. federal fiscal year runs from October 1 to September 30. FY 2001 begins on October 1, 2000. franchise - The constitutional right to vote. front-runner - The candidate who is leading the race for the partyï¿½s nomination or for the office itself. - G - gender gap - The apparent difference between men and women in values, attitudes, voting patterns, etc. This term is used especially by pollsters and the media. In recent elections, statistically, American women have tended to prefer Democrat to Republican candidates, leaning toward the more liberal side of the political spectrum. gerrymander - To divide (a voting area) so as to give one political party a majority in as many districts as possible or weaken the voting strength of an ethnic or racial group, an urban population, etc. A re-districting of voting areas to the advantage of one party or the disadvantage of a group, region, etc. Such a district is often odd-shaped and fails the test of geographic compactness. This term was coined to deride an 1812 redistricting of a county in Massachusetts: the name of Governor Elbridge Gerry was combined with the latter part of salamander, which the meandering district resembled on the map. G.O.P. - The acronym for "Grand Old Party," a nostalgic nickname for the Republican Party. governor - The elected chief executive of a state government. The governorï¿½s role in state government is similar in many respects to the Presidentï¿½s role in the federal government. For most states, the term of office is four years. However, in three statesï¿½New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermontï¿½the governor serves a two-year term. If the governor is unable to complete a term of office, the stateï¿½s lieutenant governor replaces the governor. governor, lieutenant - The elected official who replaces the governor if he or she is unable to complete a term of office. This position has similarities to that of Vice President of the U.S. However, in a number of states, the lieutenant governor is elected independently of the governor and thus may be of a different political party. grass roots - The common people, originally those of rural or nonurban areas, thought of as best representing the basic, direct political interests of the electorate. also, The basic or fundamental source of support of a movement, group, etc. Green Party - Officially, The Greens/Green Party USA, an alternative political party and social movement, was inspired by a party in Germany. It was initiated in 1984 and more formally structured by 1989. It prepares candidates to stand for election at many levels of government. As its name suggests, the Green Party is an outgrowth of the environmental movement. Other basic concerns include social justice, respect for diversity, and support for a democratically accountable community-based economy. The Greens espouse nonviolence as their method of promoting social change. To date, no Green Party candidates have won an election at the federal level. People who vote for Green Party candidates often point to the value of their protest vote. gross domestic product (GDP) - The total value of the annual output of goods and services produced within the nationï¿½s borders. The GDP excludes the foreign output of American firms but includes the domestic output of foreign firms. The GDP of the U.S. was over $8.5 trillion in 1998. gross national product (GNP) - The monetary value of all of the goods and services produced by a nation in a given yearï¿½one of the most important tools for measuring the health of a nationï¿½s economy. - H - hard money - Contributions made to political parties and candidates in federal elections that are legal under the Federal Election Campaign Act or that come under the regulatory oversight of the Federal Election Commission. House of Representatives - The lower house, or chamber, of the U.S. Congress. The name is also used for the lower house in most of the 49 states having bicameral (two-chamber) legislatures. A member of the U.S. House of Representatives is called a Representative, as in the Constitution, but is also called a Congressman or Congresswoman. Each Representative represents a Congressional district. There are 435 Representatives in the House. Although the number of Representatives has been fixed by law, the Congressional districts are reapportioned after each decennial census. Thus, a state may gain or lose seats in the House because of demographics. However, the Constitution requires that each have at least one Representative. A Representative must be at least 25 years old and have been an American citizen for at least seven years. Representatives must live in the state that they represent. They are not required to live in the Congressional district that they represent, but most of them do. Deliberating proposed legislation is the chief duty of the House. Most of this work is carried out by various committees and subcommittees, and routine legislation is passed by unanimous consent agreements that eliminate the need for a vote by the full House. Full debate on the floor of the House tends to occur when a bill is controversial. In addition to its legislative function, the House also has the responsibility for impeaching federal officials and, under certain circumstances, electing the President. American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, and the Virgin Islands have Delegates who serve two-year terms in the House. Puerto Rico has a Resident Commissioner who serves a four-year term. These Delegates and the Commissioner are permitted to debate and vote in committee but may not vote on the floor of the House. - I - inauguration - A ceremony at which an elected official is formally inducted into office. Inauguration Day, the day on which the President is inaugurated, is January 20th in the year following an election. The newly elected or reelected President takes an oath of office, as required by the Constitution. The oath reads: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of the President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." incumbent - The person holding a particular political office. Generally, an incumbent seeking reelection has a better chance of winning than those challenging the incumbent do. Independent - A person with no particular party affiliation; specifically, a voter who is not registered as either a Democrat or a Republican. Since most party members can be expected to vote for candidates of their own party, much campaign effort goes toward winning the votes of independents. About one-third of the electorate describes itself as independent. Independents are excluded from voting in primary elections that are restricted to registered party members. Many states hold open primaries that are open to all voters. independent expenditure - Money spent on political advertising in support of a particular candidate that comes from outside the candidateï¿½s own election organization. Generally, there is no limit on the amount of such independent expenditure. initiative - The right of citizens to introduce a matter for legislation to the legislature or directly to the voters. Also, the procedure by which such matters are introduced. The initiative allows citizens to attempt to get laws passed in cases where the legislature refuses to act. Generally, a petition signed by a specified percentage of the voters is required for placing an initiative on the ballot or on the legislative calendar. Initiative petitions are allowed by many local governments but by fewer than half the states. - J - judicial branch - The branch of government that administers justice and settles legal disputes. The judicial functions are carried out through the operation of the nationï¿½s court systems. The federal government and each of the states have a system of courts. The federal judicial branch comprises chiefly the U.S. District Courts, the U.S. Courts of Appeals (also called federal circuit courts), and the Supreme Court of the United States. There are also a number of federal courts having specialized functions. Cases having federal jurisdiction are typically heard in the district courts. The circuit courts and the Supreme Court are appellate courts, reviewing cases and ruling on points of law raised on appeal from district court decisions. - L - lame duck - An elected official whose term extends beyond the time of the election at which he or she was not reelected. This term covers incumbents who have been defeated, are not seeking reelection, or are barred by law (through term limits) from succeeding themselves. Such an officeholder is often seen as weak or ineffectual, especially by members of the opposing party, who are waiting for the successor to take over. left - A liberal or radical position, especially one varying from moderate socialism to communism, or a party or group advocating this: often preceded by the. The term has its origin in the position of the seats occupied by members in some European legislatures. See also right. leftist - A person whose political position is liberal or radical. left wing - The more liberal or radical section of a political party, organization, etc. legislative branch - One of the three branches of government, at federal and state levels, composed of elected representatives and having responsibility mainly for making laws and appropriating funds. The legislative branch of the federal government is composed of Representatives and Senators and their staffs and committee staffs. Related support agencies include the General Accounting Office, the Congressional Budget Office, and the Library of Congress. liberal - Favoring reform or progress, as in religion, education, or socioeconomic conditions; specifically, favoring political reforms tending toward democracy and personal freedom for the individual; progressive. Liberals tend to favor greater federal power to remedy social inequities, and to support freedom of personal choice and behavior. Liberals are described as being left of center on the political spectrum. Of the two major political parties, the Democratic Party is generally regarded as being more liberal. Libertarian Party - An alternative political party in the U.S. that prepares candidates to stand for election at many levels of government. Libertarians support individual rights and minimal government involvement in peopleï¿½s lives. The Partyï¿½s principles emphasize prohibiting the initiation of physical force against others and the rights to liberty of speech and action and to property. To date, no Libertarian Party candidates have won an election at the federal level. lieutenant governor - The elected official who replaces the governor if he or she is unable to complete a term of office. This position has similarities to that of Vice President of the U.S. However, in a number of states, the lieutenant governor is elected independently of the governor and thus may be of a different political party. line-item veto - Executive power to reject a section of a bill, especially one containing specific appropriations or tax breaks, without vetoing the whole bill. Governors of some states have this authority. Congress gave this power to the President in 1997. The U.S. Supreme Court struck down the law in 1998, declaring it unconstitutional. Some members of Congress said that they would try to pass another law although the Court had said a constitutional amendment would be required. Lobby - A group or organizationï¿½sometimes called a "pressure group"ï¿½that seeks to influence legislation, administrative action, and/or public opinion. Commercial and industrial interests, trade associations, labor unions, organizations representing ethnic and racial groups, professional networks, citizen organizations, and representatives of foreign concerns work to achieve their special interests. A lobbyï¿½s power to influence, however, often may be based not on the merits of its arguments, but on its size, its financial and membership resources, and the astuteness of its representatives. lobbyist - A person who represents a lobby and presents its views to members of a government body. - M - majority - The number by which the votes cast for the candidate, bill, etc. receiving more than half of the votes exceed the remaining votes. See plurality. majority leader - In the House of Representatives and the Senate, the leader of the majority party. Also called the "floor leader," the majority leader works to advance the majority partyï¿½s legislative program. majority party - In the House of Representatives and the Senate, the political party having the majority of seats. The majority party in each chamber of the Congress is able to advance its legislative program provided it can get its members to vote along party lines. The Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President Pro Tempore of the Senate are members of the majority party, as are the chairs of the various congressional committees. matching funds - Federal money given to presidential candidates that matches dollar-for-dollar the private contributions they have received from individuals. Eligible candidates in the presidential primaries receive up to $250 in matching funds for each individual contribution they receive, provided they agree to limit their campaign spending to $37 million. mayor- The elected or appointed head of a municipal government, usually the chief administrative official but sometimes a largely ceremonial figure having little executive authority. Medicaid - The federally aided, state-administered program that provides medical benefits to low-income people who are in need of health care. Medicare - Americaï¿½s national health insurance program for the elderly and disabled. Medicare covers certain medical and hospital expenses of people over the age of 65 as well as those people under the age of 65 who are disabled. The money comes chiefly from the Social Security fund. Member of Congress - A person who has been elected to either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives. A member of the Senate is usually referred to as Senator and a member of the House of Representatives as Congressman or Congresswoman. midterm election - An election for seats in the U.S Senate and House of Representatives that occurs in the middle of a Presidentï¿½s four-year term. For example, the Congressional election of 1998 was a midterm election. Midterm elections are also called "off-year elections." The results are sometimes interpreted as a popular expression of opinion regarding that presidentï¿½s performance for the first two years of the term. Midterm elections determine one third of the U.S. Senate and all members of the House of Representatives, as well as many state and local officials. minority leader - In the House of Representatives and the Senate, the leader of the minority party. Also called the "floor leader," the minority leader works to advance the minority partyï¿½s legislative program. minority party - In the House of Representatives and the Senate, the political party having the minority of seats. motor-voter law - A law that enables a citizen to register to vote when applying for, or renewing, a driverï¿½s license. The federal motor-voter law is the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, which became effective on January 1, 1995. mudslinging - The practice of making malicious verbal attacks against oneï¿½s opponent in a political race. Mudslinging is a tactic of "dirty politics" and the running of a "negative campaign." It is a tactic that most political candidates accuse their opponents of using. It has a long history in American politics. - N - national debt - The total debt incurred by the central government of a nation, specifically by the federal government of the United States. The U.S. national debt consists of yearly budget deficits, funds borrowed by one government agency from another (especially from trust funds), foreign and domestic loans, and interest. As of May 4, 2000, the national debt stood at approximately $5,771,678,017,000 (five and three-quarters trillion dollars), or an average of about $21,000 per person in the U.S. The government sells securities to finance its debt. national party (nominating) convention - The official gathering held, by each of the major political parties, during the summer before a presidential election, to nominate the partyï¿½s presidential and vice-presidential candidates and announce the partyï¿½s platform. The conventions bring together the delegates of each of the states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the various U.S. Territories. They have become large media events. negative ads - Political advertising designed to attack an opponent by calling into question character or past political record. Negative ads typically seek to give the impression that the opponent is dishonest or hypocritical in something said or done in the political sphere. Such ads may not only expose real personal foibles, crimes, and misdemeanors, but also may try to demonstrate, usually through distortions of fact, that the opponent is likely to be an unsuitable officeholder. nominee - A person who is nominated, or proposed by others as a candidate for public office. nonpartisan - Not involving or influenced by a particular political party. A nonpartisan election is one in which the candidates on the ballot are not identified according to their party affiliation.; - O - open primary - A primary election in which the voter does not need to declare party affiliationï¿½ (see primary, open below for important information) - P - partisan - A person who strongly supports a political party. Approximately two-thirds of Americans consider themselves as being partisans of either the Democratic Party or the Republican Party or independents with partisan leanings or high levels of party loyalty. platform - A political partyï¿½s formal written statement of its principles, policies, and goals, which is drafted, revised, and publicized during the presidential nomination process. The adoption of a platform is one of the main functions of a national party convention. The major challenge to the platform committee is to write a platform with which all or most party members can identify and which all party candidates will embrace and promote during their campaigns. plurality - The number of votes in an election that the leading candidate obtains over the next highest candidate. If candidate A gets 65 votes, B gets 40, and C gets 35, then A has a plurality of 25 and wins the election. Note that, in this case, no candidate has a majority of votes. pocket veto - The indirect veto by the President of the U.S. of a bill presented to him by Congress within ten days of its adjournment, by failing to sign and return the bill before Congress adjourns. political action committee (PAC) - An organization representing the interests of a corporation, labor union, trade association, etc., that solicits and collects political campaign contributions from individuals and distributes them to particular candidates. By law, a PAC may donate up to $5,000 per candidate per election. politician - A person engaged in politics, especially party politics, professionally or otherwise. Often, a person holding or seeking political office. This term is frequently used in a derogatory sense, with implications of seeking personal or partisan gain, scheming, opportunism, etc. poll - A canvassing, or surveying, of a selected or random group of people to collect information, or to attempt to discover public opinion. The information obtained depends on the makeup of the group selected for questioningï¿½the sampleï¿½as well as the choice of questions to be asked and the way the questions are worded. polls - A place where votes are cast and recorded. poll, straw - An unofficial vote or poll taken to determine the general opinion among a group on a given issue. pork barrel - Government appropriations for political patronage, as for local improvements to please legislatorsï¿½ constituents or to create jobs in the legislatorï¿½s district. precinct - A subdivision of a ward, as for voting. The smallest political unit in the American electoral system and the basic building block for political organization. A precinct has between 200 and 1,000 voters. Following the 1990 census, there were about 147,000 precincts in the U.S. Each party normally appoints a precinct captain as party leader in the neighborhood and as its representative on the larger city or county party committee. Precincts may also elect delegates to city or county party conventions. Today, the precinct captainï¿½s job mainly involves education and organization, promoting the benefits of party membership, and registering new voters. presidential elector - A member of the Electoral College. Each state chooses as many presidential electors as it has Senators and Representatives in Congress. The District of Columbia also chooses three presidential electors. President of the Senate - The Vice President of the U.S. in the role of presiding officer of the U.S. Senate. President of the United States - The chief executive officer of the federal government; head of the executive branch. The President must be at least 35 years of age and have been born in the United States. The Presidentï¿½s main powers and duties are to serve as commander-in-chief of the armed forces; to conduct foreign policy and make treaties; to appoint ambassadors, heads of Cabinet departments, and federal judges; to grant pardons and reprieves for federal crimes; to approve or veto legislation; and to report formally to Congress each year on the State of the Union. The Presidentï¿½s term of office is four years; no one may be elected to more than two terms. President Pro Tempore - The chief presiding officer of the U.S. Senate in the absence of the Vice Presidentï¿½usually the Senator of the majority party having the longest record of continuous service. primary election - An election to select a partyï¿½s candidates for public office, held some time before the general election. Primaries cover offices at all levels of government. primary, closed - A primary election in which voters must declare party affiliation and may vote only for candidates of their party. Most state primaries are closed. Between 37 and 42 states hold primaries each presidential election cycle. Republicans hold primaries in more states than Democrats. primary, open - A primary election in which the voter need not declare party affiliation. A voter registered with one party can vote for the candidates of another party. Independent voters who are not affiliated with a party can vote for the candidates of any particular party. This kind of primary is also called a "cross-over" primary.ï¿½ (Note:ï¿½ A U.S. Supreme Court ruling in the case California Democratic Party v. Jones (June 2, 2000) ruled that Californiaï¿½s ï¿½blanketï¿½ primary ï¿½ an open primary ï¿½ violated a political partyï¿½s First Amendment right of association ï¿½ therefore, this type of primary election may disappear from the U.S. political system.) progressive - Favoring, working for, or characterized by progress or improvement, as through political or social reform. Also, a person who advocates or favors policies promoting political or social reform. proportional representation - A system of voting that gives minority parties representation in a legislature in proportion to their share of the popular vote. Various methods of dividing the vote have been proposed. Some European nations have adopted these practices. The delegates to the Democratic national convention are selected through a form of proportional representation. Some statesï¿½ Republican convention delegates are chosen on a winner-take-all basis. Presidential elections also are structured on a winner-take-all basisï¿½the winner of a stateï¿½s popular vote receives all of the stateï¿½s electoral votes. protest vote - A vote for the candidate of an alternative party that is cast not to elect that candidate, but to indicate disapproval of the major political parties and their candidates. public funding - The financing, in part, of presidential election campaigns from a fund consisting entirely of voluntary contributions and maintained by the U.S. Treasury. U.S. taxpayers check off the appropriate box on their federal income tax return to authorize that a dollar or more be contributed to the presidential election campaign fund. Candidates who qualify for public money receive direct contributions and must agree to follow certain rules and restrictions. Advocates of complete public funding of elections and restriction of the use of soft money argue that such practices would make the election process less vulnerable to the influence of very large contributors to election campaigns. push polling - A public-opinion survey technique used to test campaign themes by asking specific questions about an issue or a candidate. Some campaign organizations have used this practice unscrupulously by injecting false, misleading, or otherwise negative information about opposing candidates into the questions they pose to voters. - R - Reagan Democrat - Any registered Democratic voter that broke ranks with the party and voted for the Republican Ronald Reagan in the 1980 and 1984 presidential elections. The Reagan Democrats constituted a significant voting bloc in those elections. The name continues to be used as subsequent Republican candidates have attempted, rather unsuccessfully, to retain these voters. The Reagan Democrats have been characterized generally as "blue-collar" and "working class," and include a strong ethnic and Catholic component. re-districting - The process of redrawing the geographic boundaries of Congressional districts. The majority party in the state legislature typically controls the process, using this power to redraw the boundaries so as to increase its chances of winning future congressional elections. referendum - The submission of a law or proposed law to a direct vote of the electorate. Referendums are used at the state and local levels. Some issues must be submitted to the electorate, such as amendments to a state constitution or increases in property taxes. Occasionally, legislatures will submit controversial issues to the voters. Issues raised by initiative petition are also commonly submitted to a popular vote. Reform Party - The political party formed by H. Ross Perot in 1995. Texas entrepreneur Perot had mounted a successful third-party campaign during the presidential election of 1992. Running a largely self-financed campaign under the banner of his "United We Stand, America" organization, Perot received nearly 19 percent of the vote. Perotï¿½s candidacy in 1996 under his newly formed Reform Party fared less well. He received about eight percent of the vote. Since 1996, the party has experienced considerable turmoil, with splits and defections. Representative, State - A member of the lower house of a state legislature. Representative, U.S.- A member of the lower house of Congress (the House of Representatives). Republican Party - One of the two major political parties in the United States. The party was formed out of the antislavery movement and its first presidential candidate, John Charles Fremont, ran and lost the 1856 election on an antislavery platform. With a broader range of issues and a moderate position on slavery, the Republican candidate in 1860, Abraham Lincoln, defeated the candidates of a sectionally divided Democratic Party. The Republican Party has pursued various policies over its history, but it has been characterized generally in recent times as the more conservative party and as the party that is more favorably disposed toward the interests of conservative WASPs (white, Anglo-Saxon Protestants), business and the wealthy. revenues - Receipts collected by the government from taxes, duties, user fees, and premiums from social insurance programs. right - A conservative or reactionary position, especially one varying from moderate capitalism to fascism, or a party or group advocating this: often found with ï¿½theï¿½ before ï¿½right.ï¿½ The term has its origin in the position of the seats occupied by members in some European legislatures. See also left. right wing - The more conservative or reactionary section of a political party, organization, etc. running mate - A candidate for the lesser of two closely associated offices in his or her relationship to the candidate for the greater office. The vice-presidential candidate is the running mate of the presidential candidate. - S - Secretary - An official in charge of an executive department of government. In the federal government, such officials include the Secretary of State, the Secretary of the Treasury, and the Secretary of Defense. In addition to heading their respective departments, these officials also serve as members of the Presidentï¿½s Cabinet. Senate - The upper house, or chamber, of the U.S. Congress. The name is also used for the upper house in most of the 49 states having bicameral (two-chamber) legislatures. There are 100 Senators, two from each state. Senators serve six-year terms. Originally, Senators were to be chosen by the legislature of each state, according to Article I of the Constitution. The ratification of the 17th Amendment in 1913 changed this practice, and Senators, like Representatives, are now chosen in general elections. Elections are staggered so that one-third of the Senate comes up for election every two years. A Senator must be 30 years old and have been an American citizen for at least nine years. Senators must be residents of the state that they represent. As in the House of Representatives, deliberating proposed legislation is the chief duty of the Senate. Bills of all sorts may be introduced and discussed in the Senate, with the exception of bills for raising revenue, which must originate in the House. The Senate, like the House, uses a system of committees and subcommittees, and most legislation is passed by unanimous consent agreements. The Senate is required to approve treaties and confirm the nomination of certain officials, such as Supreme Court justices. The Senate also has the responsibility for exercising judgment in cases of impeachment. Senator, State - A member of the upper house of a state legislature. Senator, U.S.- A member of the upper house of Congress (the Senate). separation of powers - The distinct jurisdiction, powers, and responsibilities of each of the three branches of government. Generally, the legislative branch makes the laws, the executive branch implements them, and the judicial branch enforces them. The Framers of the Constitution apportioned governmental power among the three branches so that no official or group of officials could establish a monopoly on power. In addition, they established a system of "checks and balances" so that each branch would possess the means of reigning in the exercise of power by the other two branches. Social Security - Americaï¿½s contributory social insurance program providing benefits to millions of people. Workers contribute financially to the system during their working years and earn entitlement to family benefits upon retirement, disability, or death. Currently, nearly 44 million Americans receive benefits under the Old-Age and Survivors and Disability Insurance (OASDI) programs that make up Social Security. soft money - Money contributed to a political party but not designated for a particular candidate. Soft-money contributions are outside the restrictions of the Federal Election Campaign Act. They have become controversial because they are regarded by many as a "loophole" in the regulation of campaign funding. Soft-money contributions were supposed to be used primarily for general party purposes, such as voter-registration drives, "get-out-the-vote" campaigns, and advertising that highlights the party platform but does not support particular candidates. However, the national committees of each party are allowed to distribute money to individual candidatesï¿½ campaigns. Whereas the federal election law sets strict limits on direct contributions to candidates, no such limits exist with respect to soft money. Thus, direct contributions that are not permitted under the federal law may nevertheless get to the candidates indirectly by means of the soft-money loophole. Although soft money has been a heated topic of political debate and reform legislation has been approved by the House of Representatives, the Senate has repeatedly blocked a vote on the issue. sound bite - A brief, quotable remark or excerpt, as from a speech made by a politician or candidate for office that is repeated on radio and TV news programs. Sound bites are regarded by some as being trite and superficial, and the term is often used dismissively. Speaker of the House - The presiding officer of the House of Representatives and the leader of its majority party. By managing the majority partyï¿½s members and regulating the legislative process in the House, the Speaker can wield considerable power. The Speaker ranks just behind the Vice President in the order of presidential succession. special interests - Individuals and organizations that attempt to influence the political process so as to advance their own particular interests. Special interests include corporations and labor unions, wealthy individuals, and any number of advocacy groups. They are usually regarded as having a self- interested agenda that is contrary to the interests of the American people. Politicians of one party will denounce the special interests associated with the other party while portraying the special interests associated with their own party in a favorable light. Special interests have nevertheless become a significant part of the American political process. They seek favorable legislation or other benefits from public officials by providing them with research information, voting endorsements, and financial contributions. There has been heated debate over the degree to which special interests have been able to influence public policy overall and on a variety of specific issues. spin - The particular interpretation or emphasis applied to information, so as to enhance the public image of, or to minimize political damage to, a politician. Spin can also be used as a weapon against a political opponent or the opposition party. Politicians routinely seek to take credit for good things, whether or not they were personally responsible for bringing them about, and to distance themselves from bad things, including their own mistakes. The considerable role of the mass media as the intermediary between the politician and the citizenry has made putting the "right slant" on information a matter of the utmost importance. Politicians and candidates, at least at the national level, now have consultants, spokespersons, etc.ï¿½spin doctors or spinmeistersï¿½who help devise and deliver the right spin to the public. split ticket - A ballot cast for candidates of more than one party. Although many voters affiliate themselves with one of the major parties and vote loyally along party lines, a sizable number of independents and swing voters vote for candidates and issues based upon their particular merits. state legislature - The legislative branch of a state government. Each of its members is a state legislator. State Representative - A member of the lower house of a state legislature. State Senator - A member of the upper house of a state legislature. statesï¿½ rights - All the rights and powers which the U.S. Constitution neither grants to the federal government nor denies to the state governments. Throughout American history, disputes over the exact division of authority between federal and state governments have arisen from time to time, focusing on a wide variety of issuesï¿½the Civil War was the outcome of such a dispute. The federal courts have the power to settle disputes over statesï¿½ rights. statute - A law passed by a legislature. straight ticket - A ballot cast for candidates of only one party. straw vote or straw poll - An unofficial vote or poll taken to determine the general opinion among a group on a given issue. stump speech- A speech delivered by a candidate for public office on the campaign trail. A "stump" is the particular place where such a speech is delivered. The term is a figurative usage that refers to earlier times when a candidate might deliver a campaign speech while standing on a tree stump. suffrage - The right to vote. The right is also called the franchise. Historically, the right to vote was restricted to white males and had the further requirement of property ownership. Over the course of U.S. history, the franchise has been expanded by various acts of Congress and, chiefly, by various amendments to the Constitution. Although the states may establish requirements for voting eligibility, they may not deny or abridge the right to vote because of race (15th Amendment, ratified 1870) or sex (19th Amendment, ratified 1920). In 1971, the voting age was lowered to 18 years by the ratification of the 26th Amendment. superdelegate - A new category of national convention delegate created by the Democratic Party in 1984 to ensure that public officials and party officials could attend and participate in conventions as delegates. Restoring the voice of the party leadership but traditionally remaining uncommitted to any candidate, superdelegates are chosen at caucuses and state conventions. The Republican Party does not have superdelegates but traditionally selects party leaders as delegates. Super Tuesday - A Tuesday in a presidential election year when many primary elections are held. The name Super Tuesday entered the political lexicon during the 1988 election campaign, when a group of Southern states decided to hold their primary elections on the same day, March 9th, early in the campaign. By voting early and as a bloc, these Southern states hoped to have a substantial influence upon the nominating process. In Election 2000, the term has been used generally of March 7th, the date on which at least ten states held primary elections. These contests were held in states from various regions of the country, including highly populated New York and California. Because of this "front-loading," the drama of the primary process has been effectively condensed into a few weeks, and the regional influence sought by the Southern states has been diminished. There were, in fact, more Southern states holding primaries on the following Tuesday, March 14. By mid-March, it was already apparent who the Democratic and Republican presidential candidates would be. Supreme Court - The highest federal court, consisting of nine judgesï¿½the Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices. Justices are nominated by the President. Their nomination must be confirmed by the Senate. Justices are appointed for life. The Supreme Court is the highest federal court. It is an appellate court; that is, it reviews decisions made by lower courts. Its decisions are final and take precedence over those of all other judicial bodies. Decisions require a simple majority. In recent years, many decisions have been issued with a 5-4 vote. For certain decisions, the court issues a formal statement, or "opinion," explaining in detail the legal reasoning underlying the decision. A Justice who agrees with the majorityï¿½s decision but not with the legal reasoning underlying it may write a "concurring opinion." A Justice who disagrees with the majorityï¿½s decision may issue a "dissenting opinion." surplus - The amount by which revenues, as from taxes, exceed outlays for government programs. swing voter - A voter who is not strictly loyal to a particular political party. A swing voter may be an independent, one who is not affiliated with either of the two major parties, or may be, like a Reagan Democrat, one who does not vote for a party candidate under some circumstances. These voters "swing" from one party to the other, and by doing so, they may "swing" the outcome of an election. Although a sizable percentage of the electorate votes along strict party lines, there are many voters who make their decisions based upon the particular merits of each candidate or issue. The successful candidate for political office must run a campaign that appeals not only to the party loyalists, but to a significant number of voters among the independents and the swing groups of both parties. - T - term limits - Limitations on the number of times that an individual may hold a particular political office. Term limits for members of Congress has been a topic of intermittent debate since the mid-1980s. The issue arose in the in the wake of several scandals that brought down a number of long-serving members of the House of Representatives. The issue arose again in the Congressional election campaign of 1994. Proponents of term limits argue that unlimited terms enable certain members of Congress to become "entrenched" in office. These "full-time politicians" acquire too much power, which, it is argued, they then have the potential to abuse. Since 1951, Presidents of the U.S. have been subject to term limits. Presidents may now be elected to only two terms. This requirement was put into effect with the ratification of the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution. Territory - A part of the United States that has its own legislature but does not have the status of a state and is under the administration of an appointed governor. Guam is a Territory of the U.S. third party - A political party organized to compete against the two major parties in a two-party system; currently in the U.S., any party other than the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. threshold - The minimum percentage of the popular vote that a presidential candidate of the Democratic Party must receive in order to qualify for the awarding of national party convention delegates in a primary under proportional representation. The Republican Party uses winner-take-all primaries, in which the plurality winner gains all of the stateï¿½s delegates. ticket - The list of candidates nominated by a political party in an election. ticket splitting - The practice of voting for candidates of different political parties in the same election as opposed to voting for all candidates of a given party (a straight ticket). Independents are most likely to split their tickets because they are not attached to any single party. - U - unicameral legislature - A legislature consisting of only one chamber, or house. Nebraska is the only state with such a legislature. U.S. Representative - A member of the lower house of Congress (the House of Representatives). U.S. Senator - A member of the upper house of Congress (the Senate). - V - veto - The power of the President to refuse to sign a bill passed by Congress, preventing it from becoming law unless both houses override the veto by passing it again (with a two-thirds majority). A similar power is held by the governors of states. When Congress is in session, the President has ten days (not counting Sundays) in which to veto a bill or it becomes law without the Presidentï¿½s signature. See also pocket veto. Vice President of the United States - The elected officer in the U.S. government who acts as President of the Senate and succeeds to the Presidency in the event of the Presidentï¿½s death, incapacity, or removal. voter turnout - The number or percentage of voters who cast a vote in a given election. Voter turnout in the U.S. has been low in many recent elections, perhaps from a common belief that one personï¿½s vote does not make a difference, although some elections are so close that a few votes one way or the other could change the outcome. "Voter apathy" has been given as another reason for low voter turnout. Such apathy may be due to disapproval of candidates, parties, or policies. Voting Rights Act of 1965 - Act of Congress passed in 1965 empowering the federal government to enforce the voting rights of black citizens. The 15th Amendment to the Constitution, ratified in 1870, states that the right to vote "shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." Still, the states have the power to establish requirements for voter eligibility, and in some states this power continued to be used in ways that made it difficult for blacks to vote. A dramatic march led by the Rev.Martin Luther King, Jr., from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama in March, 1965, brought national attention to the issue. Congress passed the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which banned the use of literacy tests and other tactics designed specifically to deny blacks their right to vote. The law also authorized the U.S. Attorney General to dispatch federal officials to oversee and verify the registration process. - W - war chest - A fund for running a political campaign. A candidateï¿½s war chest is made up chiefly of political contributions acquired by personal or direct-mail solicitations and through various fundraising events. Some claim that candidates with the largest war chests are able to "buy" election victories. On the other hand, a number of presidential hopefuls have spent large sums of money on unsuccessful campaigns. ward - A district or division of a city or town, for purposes of administration, representation, voting, etc. A ward is further divided into precincts. wedge issue - A political issue that can be used to divide or polarize a group of voters. whip - An officer of a political party, as in Congress, who maintains party discipline and enforces attendance. In each house of Congress, the majority whip assists the majority leader and the minority whip assists the minority leader by rounding up the partyï¿½s Representatives and Senators before a vote and "whipping into shape" errant party members, so as to consolidate support for the partyï¿½s agenda. winner-take-all - In the simplest kind of election, the candidate who receives the most votes wins, or "takes all." Most elections, whether of government officials or in the private sector, are decided on a winner-take-all basis. The winner is the person who receives a plurality of at least one vote. - Y - yellow dog Democrat - A loyal Democrat who votes along party lines without exception. The term derives from the saying, "Iï¿½d vote for a yellow dog if he ran on the Democratic ticket." In the 1928 presidential election campaign, yellow dog Democrats were Alabamans who remained loyal to the party even though they did not like the Democratic candidate, Al Smith. The expression came to be used of loyal Southern Democrats generally. Historically, the term has been a complimentary one. Given the deep divisions that existed between the Deep South and the Eastern establishment, even well into the twentieth century, one can begin to understand the virtue of remaining loyal to the party, no matter how distasteful a particular candidate might be. Many Democrats from all parts of the country still refer to themselves proudly as yellow dog Democrats. Adapted from http://www.pbs.org/democracy/glossary/print.html	i don't know
In which novel is 'Nick Carroway' the narrator?	IGEngGreatGatsby - Nick as Narrator Nick as Narrator Nick Carraway A Transparent Character or an Unreliable narrator? In his classic novel, The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald uses a powerful story-telling technique rarely seen elsewhere - he uses Nick Carraway, a character within the novel, to serve as its narrator from the inside! This remarkable motif allows readers to personally (as it were) witness the events of the plot as if they are actually inside story. Yet this same motif also raises some questions. Can Nick be trusted to report events as they actually happened? Is he biased by his own prejudices and emotional responses to the events he narrates? Overall, is Nick a good narrator? 1. Nick as a Character2. Reliable vs. Unreliable3. Arguments About Nick 1. Nick as a Character Carraway is a young man of about thirty, born and raised in the Middle West. Some time after returning from service in the first World War, he went out east to New York to seek his fortune in the bond selling business. While there he gets caught up in an extramarital affair between his second cousin Daisy Buchanan and his wealthy neighbour Jay Gatsby and even enters into a romantic relationship with Jordan Baker, a woman of questionable moral character. After experiencing all the depravity in the East Coast (orgies, adultery, and murder), he discovers that the lifestyle he really wanted to live was that of Minnesota with its traditional morality. Thus Nick plays not only the role of a narrator but of a character as well, as he intera Nick's internal conflict cts with other people in the text and even changes over the course of the story. In the beginning of The Great Gatsby Nick seems to be one of the main characters in the story, but as the novel progresses and the actual main characters enter on stage, Nick is seen as having more of a secondary role instead of the primary role with which he started. Nick is split between what he really likes and what he dislikes. He likes the fast-paced movement of New York and the East Coast but he finds the life style harsh and damaging to himself along with others. This conflict is symbolized by Nick's relationship with Jordan Baker. He is attracted to her sophistication, but her lack of honesty unsettles him. Nick enjoys New York for the most part until he sees first hand the unraveling of Jay Gatsby's dream, which leads to catastrophe and sudden death as a reward for the deceptive and adulterous sin by which he attained that dream. In the end, Nick realizes that the fast-paced life of New York is a facade for its lack of morality. 2. Nick as a Narrator: How reliable a narrator is Nick Carraway? Nick Carraway is not a reliable narrator because: 1. He cannot give an accurate account of what has happened between Gatsby and Daisy before he met them. To make up for his lack of information, he turns to other sources such as Jordan Baker and even Gatsby himself. At various points in the novel, Nick's conversations with other characters serve to inform the reader about events that took place before Nick's involvement in the story. In Chapter IV, Nick listens to Jordan Baker describe the history of the romance between Jay Gatsby and Daisy. There is a disadvantage to hearing this story through Jordan's voice: she is not a very honest character. As a matter of fact, she is “incurably dishonest” (p.58) according to Nick. Is Jordan a reliable source for this information? One can't be sure, as Nick merely states what has been told without knowing whether or not it is the truth. 2. His feelings towards Jay Gatsby change throughout the novel. He is first interested in his neighbor because of the mysterious atmosphere he receives. Then, he disapproves of Gatsby as Gatsby’s true character is revealed. By the end of the novel, Nick is fascinated with him. Nick's opinion of Gatsby may colour his narration and therefore disort the reader's view of him. Yet one cannot be sure whether this distorted view leads him or her to view Gatsby as better or as worse than he really is. 3. He is too deeply involved in events and relationships. Therefore he is biased; he is drawn to be more sympathetic towards Gatsby, and negative and sarcastic towards Tom Buchanan because of Tom’s oppressive attitude towards him. Nick’s positive attitude towards Gatsby is well illustrated by this quote: “They’re a rotten crowd...You’re worth the whole damn bunch put together.” (p.154). Here, Nick compliments Gatsby and places him over the normal crowd. On the other hand, he is not very approving or understanding of Tom Buchanan. He describes him of conveying an “impression of fractiousness” (p.7). Nick’s contrasting views towards two main characters may have influenced the way he describes the events. 4. He is not always rational and objective, since he is a human. Moreover, Nick loses his senses when he becomes drunk at Tom and Myrtle’s party. The account that he gives during this time, which is most of Chapter III, may be extremely inaccurate because of his drunkenness. 5. Nick himself is going through an internal conflict. How can he, then, give an accurate, unbiased account of what is going on in other people’s lives? We can see that he is struggling between two contrasting lifestyles—the pleasure-oriented,fast-paced life of New York and the conventional life of his home where morality is still valued—which is symbolized through his relationship with Jordan Baker. Although not expressed, it is possible that he is concerned with his own problems so that he cannot afford to think through the events and other people. 6. He does indeed judge people despite his statement that he is "inclined to reserve judgments" (p.1). Nick is a smug, self-righteous man who says “I am one of the few honest people that I have ever known” (p.59). Many of the descriptions he gives of people and events may be based on his prejudices and judgments. Nick Carraway is a Reliable Narrator because: 1. He is in the perfect position for narrating the novel. He is the next-door neighbor of Gatsby and a second cousin to Daisy. He also met Tom Buchanan at his college. Nick is the character who links everyone in place and can offer an eyewitness account of most of the events that happen to the three main characters. Therefore, he serves well as a reliable, objective narrator. 2. The unjudgemental nature he has obtained from his father is another factor that makes him an impartial narrator. Nick is tolerant and a good listener, so the description he gives of each event and character is highly analytical and less biased than other people may be. 3. He is not the only one talking. If he were the only one talking, some might suspect the events to be made up by Nick himself. However, there are other people who tell Nick about the past and their emotions—Jordan and Gatsby. Therefore, Nick’s comment about how Gatsby feels toward Daisy is not entirely his imagination. 4. He is usually the one who observes, not the one that takes the initiative. Nick is rather passive and follows the flow, rather than begin something. Because of this attitude, the story he tells is not self-centered and based on careful observation, without the attempt to justify himself for what he has done. 5. He tells the readers some rumors concerning Gatsby without expressing a strong opinion on them. Nick simply repeats what people say about the mysterious nouveau-riche neighbor now settled in West Egg. By doing so, he provides the readers with different views of Gatsby. He is being fairly objective. 6. This novel is a flashback from Nick's memory written at least two years after Gatsby’s death, as he clearly states at the beginning of Chapter IX. He has the privilege of hindsight at this point, and most of his emotions and bias about the characters may have died away with the time. Therefore, we can say he is writing this from a neutral viewpoint. "Structure and Narration in “The Great Gatsby”." SkyMinds. Web. 5 Dec. 2010. < http://www.skyminds.net/american-literature/structure-and-narration-in-the-great-gatsby/ >. 3. Arguments About Nick: What do critics see in Nick Carraway? Critics are divided in their opinion of Nick Carraway Building on what was mentioned above in the first section, what are the different views on Nick? The Great Gatsby Narration style View 1: Some critics have praised Fitzgerald for the cunning narrative, and many have looked at The Great Gatsby as third person limited using first person. This means that Fitzgerald uses Nick as a character in the book to describe the events while using a first person view. Nick cannot see everything, but obtains a third person limited view through other people’s witness. Some have commented that Fitzgerald's ambition for The Great Gatsby was to "write something new--something extraordinary and beautiful and simple, plus, intricately patterned." Many, such as H.L. Mencken, have been impressed with Fitzgerald for writing such a sophisticated novel. -- Critics purely enjoy the style Fitzgerald used through Nick. View 2: A small number of critics have said that the narrative style of The Great Gatsby is unnecessary. The third person limited in the first person is distracting to the readers and confusing. Instead of focusing on the "main" character, readers are directed to focus on Nick and his feelings. Also some have noted that many events in the novel are incoherent, disconnected, and plainly random. Although there are a few “good” symbols, most events are meaningless, one critic suggests.

The first two speakers in which Shakespeare play are Aegeon, a merchant of Syracuse, and Solinus, Duke of Ephesus?	SparkNotes: The Great Gatsby: Character List The Great Gatsby Plot Overview Analysis of Major Characters Nick Carraway - The novel’s narrator, Nick is a young man from Minnesota who, after being educated at Yale and fighting in World War I, goes to New York City to learn the bond business. Honest, tolerant, and inclined to reserve judgment, Nick often serves as a confidant for those with troubling secrets. After moving to West Egg, a fictional area of Long Island that is home to the newly rich, Nick quickly befriends his next-door neighbor, the mysterious Jay Gatsby. As Daisy Buchanan’s cousin, he facilitates the rekindling of the romance between her and Gatsby. The Great Gatsby is told entirely through Nick’s eyes; his thoughts and perceptions shape and color the story. Read an in-depth analysis of Nick Carraway. Jay Gatsby - The title character and protagonist of the novel, Gatsby is a fabulously wealthy young man living in a Gothic mansion in West Egg. He is famous for the lavish parties he throws every Saturday night, but no one knows where he comes from, what he does, or how he made his fortune. As the novel progresses, Nick learns that Gatsby was born James Gatz on a farm in North Dakota; working for a millionaire made him dedicate his life to the achievement of wealth. When he met Daisy while training to be an officer in Louisville, he fell in love with her. Nick also learns that Gatsby made his fortune through criminal activity, as he was willing to do anything to gain the social position he thought necessary to win Daisy. Nick views Gatsby as a deeply flawed man, dishonest and vulgar, whose extraordinary optimism and power to transform his dreams into reality make him “great” nonetheless. Read an in-depth analysis of Jay Gatsby. Daisy Buchanan - Nick’s cousin, and the woman Gatsby loves. As a young woman in Louisville before the war, Daisy was courted by a number of officers, including Gatsby. She fell in love with Gatsby and promised to wait for him. However, Daisy harbors a deep need to be loved, and when a wealthy, powerful young man named Tom Buchanan asked her to marry him, Daisy decided not to wait for Gatsby after all. Now a beautiful socialite, Daisy lives with Tom across from Gatsby in the fashionable East Egg district of Long Island. She is sardonic and somewhat cynical, and behaves superficially to mask her pain at her husband’s constant infidelity. Read an in-depth analysis of Daisy Buchanan. Tom Buchanan - Daisy’s immensely wealthy husband, once a member of Nick’s social club at Yale. Powerfully built and hailing from a socially solid old family, Tom is an arrogant, hypocritical bully. His social attitudes are laced with racism and sexism, and he never even considers trying to live up to the moral standard he demands from those around him. He has no moral qualms about his own extramarital affair with Myrtle, but when he begins to suspect Daisy and Gatsby of having an affair, he becomes outraged and forces a confrontation. Jordan Baker - Daisy’s friend, a woman with whom Nick becomes romantically involved during the course of the novel. A competitive golfer, Jordan represents one of the “new women” of the 1920s—cynical, boyish, and self-centered. Jordan is beautiful, but also dishonest: she cheated in order to win her first golf tournament and continually bends the truth. Myrtle Wilson - Tom’s lover, whose lifeless husband George owns a run-down garage in the valley of ashes. Myrtle herself possesses a fierce vitality and desperately looks for a way to improve her situation. Unfortunately for her, she chooses Tom, who treats her as a mere object of his desire. George Wilson - Myrtle’s husband, the lifeless, exhausted owner of a run-down auto shop at the edge of the valley of ashes. George loves and idealizes Myrtle, and is devastated by her affair with Tom. George is consumed with grief when Myrtle is killed. George is comparable to Gatsby in that both are dreamers and both are ruined by their unrequited love for women who love Tom. Owl Eyes - The eccentric, bespectacled drunk whom Nick meets at the first party he attends at Gatsby’s mansion. Nick finds Owl Eyes looking through Gatsby’s library, astonished that the books are real. Klipspringer - The shallow freeloader who seems almost to live at Gatsby’s mansion, taking advantage of his host’s money. As soon as Gatsby dies, Klipspringer disappears—he does not attend the funeral, but he does call Nick about a pair of tennis shoes that he left at Gatsby’s mansion. Meyer Wolfsheim - Gatsby’s friend, a prominent figure in organized crime. Before the events of the novel take place, Wolfsheim helped Gatsby to make his fortune bootlegging illegal liquor. His continued acquaintance with Gatsby suggests that Gatsby is still involved in illegal business.	i don't know
Who composed the orchestral work “Danse Macabre”?	Camille Saint-Saëns \| Biography & History \| AllMusic google+ Artist Biography by Robert Cummings Camille Saint-Saëns was something of an anomaly among French composers of the nineteenth century in that he wrote in virtually all genres, including opera, symphonies, concertos, songs, sacred and secular choral music, solo piano, and chamber music. He was generally not a pioneer, though he did help to revive some earlier and largely forgotten dance forms, like the bourée and gavotte. He was a conservative who wrote many popular scores scattered throughout the various genres: the Piano Concerto No. 2, Symphony No. 3 ("Organ"), the symphonic poem Danse macabre, the opera Samson et Dalila, and probably his most widely performed work, The Carnival of The Animals. While he remained a composer closely tied to tradition and traditional forms in his later years, he did develop a more arid style, less colorful and, in the end, less appealing. He was also a poet and playwright of some distinction. Saint-Saëns was born in Paris on October 9, 1835. He was one of the most precocious musicians ever, beginning piano lessons with his aunt at two-and-a-half and composing his first work at three. At age seven he studied composition with Pierre Maledin. When he was ten, he gave a concert that included Beethoven 's Third Piano Concerto, Mozart 's B flat Concerto, K. 460, along with works by Bach , Handel , and Hummel. In his academic studies, he displayed the same genius, learning languages and advanced mathematics with ease and celerity. He would also develop keen, lifelong interests in geology and astronomy. In 1848, he entered the Paris Conservatory and studied organ and composition, the latter with Halévy. By his early twenties, following the composition of two symphonies, he had won the admiration and support of Berlioz , Liszt , Gounod , Rossini , and other notable figures. From 1853 to 1876, he held church organist posts; he also taught at the École Niedermeyer (1861-1865). He composed much throughout his early years, turning out the 1853 Symphony in F ("Urbs Roma"), a Mass (1855) and several concertos, including the popular second, for piano (1868). In 1875, Saint-Saëns married the 19-year-old Marie Truffot, bringing on perhaps the saddest chapter in his life. The union produced two children who died within six weeks of each other, one from a four-story fall. The marriage ended in 1881. Oddly, this dark period in his life produced some of his most popular works, including Danse macabre (1875) and Samson et Dalila (1878). After the tragic events of his marriage, Saint-Saëns developed a fondness for Fauré and his family, acting as a second father to Fauré 's children. But he also remained very close to his mother, who had opposed his marriage. When she died in 1888, the composer fell into a deep depression, even contemplating suicide for a time. He did much travel in the years that followed and developed an interest in Algeria and Egypt, which eventually inspired him to write Africa (1891) and his Piano Concerto No. 5, the "Egyptian". He also turned out works unrelated to exotic places, such as his popular and most enduring serious composition, the Symphony No. 3. Curiously, after 1890, Saint-Saëns ' music was regarded with some condescension in his homeland, while in England and the United States he was hailed as France's greatest living composer well into the twentieth century. Saint-Saëns experienced an especially triumphant concert tour when he visited the U.S. in 1915. In the last two decades of his life, he remained attached to his dogs and was largely a loner. He died in Algeria on December 16, 1921.	Camille Saint-Saëns

Find out more about Saint-Saëns's Danse Macabre, theme to TV's Jonathan Creek. Watch and listen to different recordings and download your favourite. Death is up there on most composers’ radars as a worthy inspiration. Saint-Saëns happened on the subject in the early 1870s, originally setting to music a strange, art-house poem by Henri Cazalis, which has the first line ‘Zig, zig, zig, death in cadence’. Originally it was for voice and piano but, thankfully, Saint-Saëns reworked it a couple of years later, substituting a violin for the voice and adding the full orchestra. When it was premiered at one of the Parisian Châtelet concerts (these took place in the Théâtre du Châtelet) it was immediately encored in full. Since then, it has remained one of Saint-Saëns’s most popular pieces, with television providing endless opportunities to hear it again in theme tunes. There’s a whole narrative that unfolds in the piece, with the violin representing death himself and the story starting at midnight – hence the twelve chiming opening notes. So it was completely appropriate that the piece was chosen to open the Bafta-winning mystery crime series, from 1997 to 2013. It starred Alan Davies as the magician’s assistant who solves apparently supernatural mysteries using his knowledge of trickery. Recommended Recording	i don't know

Jug \| Search Results \| The Official Monster Raving Loony Party The Official Monster Raving Loony Party 27th May 12 Another election has reared it head so soon after the recent round on May 3rd. There is a vacant seat apparently for the Earith Ward of the Huntindon District Council,which is in Cambridgeshire on Thurs 21st June 2012. Who’s standing? none other than our Valiant Soldier, ‘Lord Toby Jug’ .

The party wish him, and his entourage all the best and we look forward to him gaining that seat or record,whichever ! ! ! Witney By-election roundup 21st October 16 This by-election was caused by mysterious disappearance of No. 10’s Cheshire Cat David Cameron. So who better to replace him than Alisdair De Voil from Oxford, ‘The Mad Hatter’, who shouted “this is my tea party”, checked his watch, and made a dash for the nomination. Our party leader Howling Laud arrived in Witney to support him a couple of days before the election, and was caught up in a film about ‘Political Party Leaders of Great Britain.’ ‘The Mad Hatter’, Howling and Mark Stokes, a party activist from Shrivenham, toured the constituency mostly talking in French when they couldn’t remember what they were meant to be saying in English and supping from bottles that said “drink me!”. They ended up in a very nice public house called The New Inn, where they did seven impossible things just before breakfast. Congratulations to The Mad Hatter for increasing his vote by 100% and coming 8th out of 14 candidates. We always knew it would be a tough Constituency, but it seems we are catching up fast with the Greens and Ukip who despite all their media attention, still only have one more M.P than us. The night of the Count saw the arrival of the party faithful, ‘Nick the Flying Brick’, RU Seerius, Lady Helenbak, Chinners, and local supporters, George, Tom & Jerry. As usual cameras were snapping. There was a great atmosphere at the Counting Hall with very friendly banter between candidates and all supporters. Back to our candidate, didn’t he do well, 129 votes, coming 8th out of fourteen, and a big round of applause for all his efforts was heard around the hall. We all agreed afterwards that it was a great success, and we’re quite looking forward to whenever and wherever the next one may be. Once again plaudits to ‘The Mad Hatter’ he did us proud, and thanks to Julian Bones the landlord of The Old Court Hotel for all his help and everybody else who voted for us.

By-election 2016: Witney The Co-ALE-ition story so far by Derrill Carr Derrill Carr at The Fox in North Waltham In late June 2013 Alan Hope and Derrill Carr (CAMRA member with good contacts at micro breweries) attended a Meet The Brewer event held at Alan’s local pub the Prince Arthur in Fleet where they met Gary Winslade who was in charge of Sales and Marketing at the Itchen Valley micro brewery in New Alresford (Hampshire). In what turned out to be a very long night drinking free samples of Itchen Valley ale they discussed with Gary the opportunity of the Itchen Valley brewery proving an ale to celebrate the 30 year anniversary of the first time an OMRLP candidate had stood at an election i.e. Lord David Sutch at Bermondsey in Feb 1983 soon followed by 12 candidates at the 1983 General Election. >>From the Guardian Archive<< Gary was initially very enthusiastic and asked us to provide a pump clip design so that he could take it to his designers and set the wheels in motion. Derrill and Alan quickly knocked together a pump clip design and also came up with a name for this new ale and sent it to Gary but due to a number of reasons completely outside our control this opportunity failed to materialise. Whilst Alan and Derrill felt a little disappointed with this outcome they both realised it was never going to be easy to convince a micro brewery to invest their own cash into a new product for the OMRLP unless the brewery could clearly see there was something in it for themselves. There was no OMRLP budget provided for the development of a OMRLP ale so the initial cost of both designing and producing the pump clips (£300 to £500) had to be absorbed by the microbrewery themselves. However less than a month later (in late July 2013) another opportunity presented itself, again at the Prince Arthur in Fleet, on the opening night of their Local Ale Festival. Derrill had invited Phil Robins (Longdog brewery) along to open the Festival and after his brewing talk to the gathered audience Phil then sat down on a table with Alan and Derrill where he introduced them both to the delights of Longdog’s Brindle Bitter which they all proceeded to drink all night. Phil Robins They all got on together very well and eventually the conversation turned to discussing the opportunity for the Longdog brewery to produce a special ale to celebrate the OMRLP’s 30 year anniversary. It became very clear in the conversations with Phil Robins that a completely new ale was not an option due to our very tight timescales and the high risk issue of pubs not ordering this new ale i.e. could the Loony Party be trusted to produce a good quality ale with a completely new recipe or were the Loonys’ going to have the last laugh by producing an ale that was undrinkable. Phil readily agreed that the Loony Party could rebrand one of his existing award winning ales and was delighted to have been asked but said he would need help with the pumpclip design and arriving at the name for the new ale. Alan and Derrill then visited the Longdog brewery in Basingstoke the very next day to sample and taste all of the Longdog ales that were on offer for rebranding and they decided whilst they were there that the Longdog Brindle Bitter they had been drinking the previous night with Phil was perfect for the OMRLP’s new ale which was later to be called Winning Co-ALE-ition. Alan and Derrill, then commenced work on what has since been recognised as the crucial stage of this business opportunity i.e. to come up with an attractive, eye catching pump clip design together with a unique name for this new OMRLP ale all of which had to be backed up with an interesting topical story. The masterstroke with hindsight was coming up with the centrepiece of the pump clip design which was a photo from May 2010 when Alan stood against David Cameron in his Witney (Oxfordshire) constituency at the May 2010 General Election. This photo depicts the exact moment when David Cameron stepped forward on the stage to be announced as the winner of the Witney election to the whole world. Howling, ever the opportunist, stepped forward out of the line of other candidates, to shake a shocked David Cameron by the hand whilst at the same time lifting his own hand in triumph. This picture went all round the world in news bulletins and newspapers/magazines and further highlighted to a world wide audience just what the OMRLP were all about. The next requirement was to come up with something topical, Alan and Derrill focused on the present Coalition Govt which was struggling to make progress and used this to come up with the name “ Winning Co-ALE-ition “ using the photo of Cameron and Hope to envisage a different type of Coalition Govt this time between the OMRLP and the Conservatives which would undoubtedly be a winner. The ALE in Co-ALE-ition stands for Another Loony Experience and the pump clip colours were to be the OMRLP official colours of yellow and black. All of this information was then passed to Phil Robins in early August. Phil in consultation with his pump clip designer came up with other ideas and went on to produce a final version of the Winning Co-ALE-ition pump clip that blew us all away. The next thoughts were launch events and getting the press involved. Two locals papers (Basingstoke Gazette and the Fleet News & Mail) were approached and they both published very good pre launch event stories and photos which helped to create a lot of early interest in this new ale. Pete Staples of the Troggs The launch events for Winning Co-ALE-ition took place in September. The first launch event was at the Longdog brewery in Basingstoke on 17th Sept which was attended by over 40 people, special VIP guest was Pete Staples, bass guitarist with the Troggs (late 60s pop group with lots of Top 10 hits)). Love was certainly all around that night as Alan entertained the audience with lots of OMRLP stories and taking them through some of the manifesto policies from the last 10 years. The following night (18th Sept) the main launch event was held at Alan’s local pub, the Prince Arthur in Fleet, with over 300 people in attendance including a good turn out from OMRLP members and supporters. John Wall, Howling, Lord Hannah, Steve Gorys, Sir Gerald Howarth Sir Gerald Howarth (local Conservative MP) came along as did over 30 other local councillors plus the Mayor of Rushmoor and the Leaders of Hart Council, Fleet Town Council and several local parish councils. It was a great night, Alan once again addressed the audience and several of the VIP guests also stood up to say a few words. Alan officially launched the new ale and then walked around the Prince Arthur with a tray offering everybody in there a free sample of Winning Co-ALE-ition. Christine, Colin Bex & Howling The night was not over as Colin Bex (Leader of the Wessex Regionalist Party stepped forward and presented Alan with a special cake specially inscribed for the 30 year anniversary. There were still over 100 people in the Prince Arthur at midnight on what many people still say was the biggest and best social event held in Fleet for many years. The News & Mail, Basingstoke Gazette and Wetherspoon’s quarterly magazine all provided excellent coverage of these two launch events. This photo was taken at the Whitchurch Silk Mill event in September just after we launched Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition. Phil Robins the head brewer was at his stall selling Co-ALE-ition. Sir George Young, Conservative MP for NW Hants and Chief Whip, was enjoying a swift half of Co-ALE-ition but got cold feet when he spotted the image of David Cameron and asked for the photographer to take him with a different Longdog pumpclip. This was a key Co-ALE-ition moment, Sir George Young was a member of the Coalition Govt and a close associate of David Cameron. Since then the pumpclip has been tried and tested in lots of places and with lots of different people and there have been no issues raised which is why we made the decision to stick with the Cameron and Hope image for the other 4 Co-ALE-ition ales, but at the time it was a real wobble especially for the Longdog brewery who I am not convinced have ever recovered from the experience. Alan and Derrill continued to proactively market Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition and visited/contacted many local pubs and the brand has continued to go from strength to strength. Winning Co-ALE-ition has already been sold in over 30 different pubs across six counties (Hampshire, Surrey, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, West Sussex and Somerset), many of these pubs are in the current CAMRA Good Beer Guide and several have been voted best real ale pubs in their own CAMRA branch area. Alan’s local pub, the Prince Arthur in Fleet, have made Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition the guest local ale that is always available and it has since become consistently the best selling ale at the Prince Arthur since the launch event in Sept. By now Alan and Derrill were receiving enquiries from pubs in other areas of the country but the Longdog brewery was only willing to deliver within a 20 mile radius of the brewery in Basingstoke. A pub in Somerset even drove through in late Nov and picked up Winning Co-ALE-ition themselves from the Longdog brewery, Derrill and Alan together with a few others visited this pub i.e. the Cross Keys in Lydford on Fosse. The very first night Winning Co-ALE-ition came on sale, it was served straight from the cask by gravity feed, another notable first for Co-ALE-ition. The Western Gazette in Somerset published a story about this Co-ALE-lition pub launch event. Several people asked Alan and Derrill why there was just one Co-ALE-ition ale and after giving this some initial thought and following discussions on the best the way forward with Phil and Lisa Robins at Longdog brewery it was agreed that a shortlist of four other award winning micro breweries based in different parts of the country would be drawn up. Derrill would then approach each of these four targeted micro breweries to see if they were willing for one of their ales to be rebranded as a Co-ALE-ition product. It was also decided that we would have maximum of 5 Co-ALE-ition ales which were all going to be different types of ale i.e. a best bitter, a stronger golden ale, an IPA, a dark stout and finally a porter and all of these Co-ALE-ition ales were to be under 5% abv so that they would be popular with customers both during the week as well as at weekends. It was also agreed that the additional 4 Co-ALE-ition ales must all be officially launched at the breweries before the end of Dec 2013 to coincide with the 30 year OMRLP anniversary year and also taking account of Alan being away in Malta for the whole month of January. The four targeted micro breweries were Langham’s brewery (West Sussex), Ascot Ales brewery (Surrey). Milk Street brewery (Wiltshire/Somerset border) and Cheddar Ales brewery (Somerset). Surprisingly the owners of all four of these targeted breweries readily agreed to the Co-ALE-ition proposal and wanted to be involved. They also allowed Derrill and Alan to rebrand whichever one of their ales they liked for the Monster Raving Loony Party. After lots of research and a series of dedicated tastings the following four ales were selected to become Co-ALE-ition products i.e. Langhams Arapaho which was a multi award winning hoppy (4.9% abv) Golden Ale. Ascot Ales multi award winning (4.6% abv) Single Hop IPA which uses a different single hop from around the world each month. Milk Street’s multi award winning (4.5% abv) Zig Zag Dark Stout. Cheddar Ales multi award winning (4.5% abv) Totty Pot Black Porter. Derrill and Alan were then given the challenge by each of the four micro breweries of coming up with the 4 pump clip designs and the names for these 4 new Co-ALE-ition ales. Derrill agreed the key principles with Alan and the brewery owners very quickly i.e. the word Co-ALE-ition was to be a part of every name, standard shape and general design of each brewery’s pump clip was to be maintained, Cameron and Hope photo to be used on every pump clip (now considered to be a key part of the Co-ALE-ition brand) and different background colours to be used so that each pump clip would stand out on its own when appearing alongside another Co-ALE-ition pump clip. With lead times of 2 to 3 weeks for the professionals to complete the design process and produce an initial stock of the pump clips, Derrill and Alan set themselves the challenge of producing the initial design and name of each ale within 48 hours. Langham brewery was the first one – the name they agreed for this new ale was Co-ALE-ition Gold reflecting that this was a Golden Ale and a Loony Party/Conservative coalition also presented a golden opportunity and would be a Gold moment in political history if it ever happened. GOLD also stands for George Osborne Lowers Duty in celebration of the 1p reduction in beer duty in the March 2013 budget which was the first ever beer duty reduction in over 50 years. The background colours on the pump clip were to be different shades of Gold. They added at the top of the pump clip “Official Monster Raving Loony Party Cask Ale” as the unique element and also included what the letters ALE in Co-ALE-ition really stood for i.e. Another Loony Experience. The pump clip was completed with a picture of the Langham brewery which is a 18th century grain barn set in the Sussex Downs surrounded by swallows taken on a late summers evening. This pump clip has since been voted by Co-ALE-ition customers as the most striking of all 5 of the Co-ALE-ition pump clips. Ascot Ales brewery was next on the list – the name they agreed for this new ale was Co-ALE-ition Hope & Glory (Single Hop IPA) reflecting that Howling Laud Hope was also celebrating the 30th year since he first stood for the OMRLP at an election (General Election back in June 1983 at Teignbridge in Devon) plus Howling was celebrating the 15 years he has been Leader of the OMRLP. The OMRLP’s famous strapline/slogan “vote insanity you know it makes sense“ was also utilised to create a unique element by converting IPA (India Pale Ale) to mean Insanity Prevents Austerity under a Conservative/OMRLP Coalition Govt. This OMRLP ale offers something completely different to all the other Co-ALE-ition ales because a different single hop, sourced from around the world, is used every month in this brew and hence this ale provides a different taste every month and has since gone on to become the OMRLP’s seasonal ale offering. Milk Street brewery ale was our next focus – the name they agreed for this ale was Co-ALE-ition Dark Side Stout which recognised this was our very first dark ale whilst at the same time was perhaps giving an early view of the potential of a Conservative and OMRLP Coalition Govt from the perspective of the other political parties. The meaning of the word ALE (Another Loony Experience) in Co-ALE-ition also features on this pump clip. There are two unique elements i.e. the Milk Street brewery’s famous emblem of the cow’s head also appears in the centre of Alan’s large rosette on the Cameron and Hope photo. The full size version of the Cameron and Hope photo was used for this one and only time but this decision later necessitated the introduction of two yellow triangular shapes on the pump clip towards the bottom as it became clear to everybody on the final version that Mr Hope was visibly very excited at meeting Mr Cameron and had definitely risen to the occasion!! Then finally it was onto the Cheddar Ales brewery ale and by now they were on a roll and could knock up a pump clip design and agree a name in a few hours – the name they agreed for this ale was Co-ALE-ition. In The Black Porter which recognised that this was a Black Porter but also that the OMRLP are the only political party currently with a positive bank balance (but nobody was to tell the Co-ALE-ition breweries!!). This pump clip has the wonderful Mendip Hills and Cheddar Gorge pictured on a wintry day in the background and also uses the Cheddar Ales strapline “Simply Gorgeous“ to describe the taste of this ale. These pump clip raw designs including the name of the ale and the rationale were passed to each of the designers employed by the 4 micro breweries. They all added extra value and in no time at all Alan and Derrill had agreed the final versions and the pump clips were on their way to printing. Official launch event dates, which all had to take place in the month of Dec at each of the four micro breweries, were then scheduled and had to allow sufficient time to produce the first batch of the new pump clips and to ensure samples of the ale would be available at the launch. The local press were also contacted and they all expressed interest in running a story in their newspapers. Howling with Fanny the Fermentor The Langham brewery official launch of Co-ALE-ition Gold took place at the Old Granary Barn brewery in Lodsworth (West Sussex) on Monday 2nd Dec at 7pm. There was a slight panic when we arrived and nobody from the brewery was there to meet us and everywhere was in complete darkness but Co-Owners — Lesley Foulkes and James Berrow plus assistant brewer Saulo Parreira all came along very soon afterwards. There was an official photographer at this launch event and he took some excellent photos which he forwarded to us the next day. Baron Von Thunderclap (OMRLP) joined us from his Sussex home for this official launch. The launch party were able to sample Co-ALE-ition Gold straight from the cask which everybody enjoyed and also were able to sample several other excellent Langham ales including the multi award winning Black Swallow which we initially selected as our preferred Langham’s Co-ALE-ition ale but after further discussion at 6% abv it was considered to be too strong. The four brewery fermenting vessels at Langham brewery were all named after women and unsurprisingly Howling made sure he was photographed alongside the one called “Fanny The Fermentor”!! The Langham brewery launch story, complete with a group photo taken by Clive Bennett the official photographer for Langhams brewery, appeared in the Midhurst and Petworth Observer in the following week’s edition. After the launch event on the way back home most of the launch party called in at the Mulberry Inn in Chiddingfold (Surrey) which is owned by Chris Evans (Radio 1 DJ). Chris was not there which is a good job as Howling was shocked to be charged £4 for a small glass of very ordinary house red wine. A couple from the Isle of Man having a meal there took pity on Howling and filled his glass up from a bottle of very expensive red wine, we later found out that the lady owned a micro brewery on the Isle Of Man which no doubt Howling will be visiting in the near future. The Ascot Ales brewery official launch of Co-ALE-ition Hope & Glory IPA took place at the brewery premises in Camberley (Surrey) on Tues Dec 10th at midday. The launch party were given a tour of the brewery by Chris Gill (Owner and Head brewer) and he also fully explained the brewing process. Chris also showed us his small very labour intensive bottling plant. The launch party then sampled the first batch of Co-ALE-ition Hope & Glory IPA which was only brewed the previous day using a Single Hop from Goldings. Everybody enjoyed this Single Hop IPA ale and photographs were taken for the News and Mail story that featured in all their editions in early January. Chris Gill gave us a polypin of Hope & Glory to take away with us and this was consumed over the following two weeks. On the way back home the launch party called in at Mr Bumble a pub in Blackwater which should be selling Co-ALE-ition ales very soon and then finally at the Waggon and Horses in Hartley Wintney which has already sold Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition and soon afterwards became the very first pub to order Ascot’s Co-ALE-ition Hope & Glory IPA. The OMRLP’s Lord Hannah of Pilcot came into the Waggon and Horses whilst we were there but alas did not stay very long. Rik Lyall of Milk Street The Milk Street brewery launch took place at Frome in Somerset on Friday 20th Dec at 1pm, the launch party had travelled through to Somerset that morning and stopped for brunch in a local café in Frome. Rik Lyall the Milk Street brewery Owner and Head brewer was there to meet us in the Griffin pub which adjoined the brewery in Milk Street. Peter Carr, the SW Co-ALE-ition agent, who is also the sales rep for Milk Street brewery was also there. We all had a sample of Co-ALE-ition Dark Side straight from a handpump on the Griffin pub bar and everybody enjoyed it and we also had samples of other Milk Street ales e.g. Funky Monkey. Lots of photos were taken inside the Griffin and also on the brief tour of the brewery area which many years ago had been a porn cinema. Just as we were leaving the Griffin a customer came in and said to Howling,” I know you “ the customer went on to say that he had appeared in two bands at Alan’s hotel in Ashburton (Devon) and had recently moved to Frome and the Griffin was now his local pub. The Griffin continued to sell Co-ALE-ition Dark Side to their customers that Friday evening but it had long gone by closing time. Both the Frome Times and the Frome Standard covered this launch event in their Xmas editions. Jem Ham The Cheddar Ales brewery launch took place at Cheddar in Somerset (only a stone’s throw from Cheddar Gorge) on Friday 20th Dec at 3pm. The launch party drove there from Frome with the help of Peter Carr (Cheddar Ales brewery sales rep from Jan 2014 onwards). Jem Ham, Cheddar Ales owner and Head Brewer, was there to meet us and we were all impressed by the size of this micro brewery. Jem rigged up a bar with a hand pump which he polished and the launch party all sampled Cheddar Ales Co-ALE-ition In The Black but on this occasion there was no cask ale option available so it was the bottled version we drank. The launch party had a quick tour of the brewery and marvelled at the fully automated bottling plant with a capability of filling 1200 bottles per hour. Lots of photos were taken and Jem kindly gave us some free samples (bottles) to take away with us. This launch event story together with a group photo was covered by the Cheddar Valley Gazette in their Xmas edition. The 1st pub to sell Co-ALE-ition In the Black from the cask was the Volunteer Riflemans’ Arms in Bath and this story was covered by the Bath Chronicle in their early Jan edition. After leaving Cheddar Ales brewery the launch party parted company with Peter Carr and drove to the Cross Keys Inn at Lydford on Fosse in Somerset where they met up once again with Dave Grindley (the owner) and Tom Wilton (the Manager). Cross Keys owner Dave Grindley The Cross Keys was the 1st pub in Somerset to sell Co-ALE-ition ale but they had to drive to the Longdog brewery in Basingstoke to pick up Winning Co-ALE-ition themselves. Dave Grindley confirmed he wanted all 5 Co-ALE-ition ales at the Cross Keys and we agreed that Peter Carr our Co-ALE-ition brewery rep would arrange this early in the New Year. Alan tapped up Dave to become a local OMRLP candidate in the 2015 General Election, Dave showed a lot of initial interest which Alan will no doubt be following up. Roger Bastable The launch party then made its way to the Haselbury Mill Hotel near Crewkerne in Somerset where Alan had fixed up with the owner (Roger Bastable his friend of 15 to 20 years) for us all to stay the Friday night (20 Dec). Roger was our host for the night and he served us drinks and arranged for us all to have Xmas dinner in the Tythe Barn with around 250 other guests who were enjoying the Xmas Party entertainment. Howling was soon on the dance floor strutting his stuff chasing after several young ladies who had taken a fancy to his hat but as the night wore on the 6% draft cider he had been drinking started to take effect and an early night beckoned. Again lots of photos were taken and the story of the OMRLP visit to Haselbury Mill Hotel should be in the Chard and Ilminster News next week. Roger Bastable confirmed he wanted all five of the Co-ALE-ition ales in his three bars and a meeting to facilitate this was to be arranged with Peter Carr in early Jan. Roger also showed some interest in becoming a local OMRLP candidate at the 2015 General Election. As we set off back home from Somerset on the morning of the 21 Dec we all agreed that Friday 20th Dec would live in our memories for a very long time. There have been six official Co-ALE-ition launch events in total, five were held at each of the Co-Ale-ition micro breweries and then there was the big event held at the Prince Arthur in Fleet. Alan, Derrill, Leon Slater and Steve Lawson attended all 6 events and Joy Lawson and Colin Bex (Leader of the Wessex Regionalist Party who lives in North London) attended 5 of these events. Alan, Derrill and Leon Slater also attended the Co-ALE-ition launch event at the Cross Keys Inn at Lydford on Fosse on Tuesday 3rd December to celebrate Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition being sold in Somerset for the first ever time and also the first time Co-ALE-ition was served straight from the cask by gravity feed. The Waggon and Horses Alan and Derrill between them have supported the launch of Co-ALE-ition at several other pubs e.g. The Fox at North Waltham, The Bat and Ball at Boundstone, The Waggon and Horses at Hartley Wintney, The Prince of Wales at Farnborough, The Tilly Shilling at Farnborough and The Claude Du Vall at Camberley. Alan was away in Malta for the whole month of January so this was one of the quietest periods for Co-ALE-ition. Whilst away, Alan pursued an opportunity with the Simonds, Farson and Cisk brewery in Malta with the objective of giving them an opportunity to produce the first international Co-ALE-ition cask ale. Unfortunately Alan was not able to arrange a meeting with the brewery whilst he was over there so this opportunity may be followed up by email later. Derrill produced a detailed schedule for the Milk Street and Cheddar Ales breweries containing all of the pub leads together with their contact details. We waited with considerable excitement and high expectations for Peter Carr, Co-ALE-ition brewery representative for Somerset and the SW, to come on board in late Jan and to start to make a really big impact. However at the last minute Peter, for his own personal reasons, decided not to join Cheddar Ales and despite everything he had said before he remained with Milk Street. This very late decision threw Cheddar Ales’ plans for Co-ALE-ition In The Black (Porter) completely up in the air according to Jem (Cheddar Ales owner/head brewer) and they were unable to take advantage of all the promotion and publicity we had carried out in Dec and Jan and lost momentum which so far they have never been able to recover from. Nick (Flying Brick) and Derrill worked hard together setting up the CO-ALE-ition section of the OMRLP website during January and had all of the content ready on there for Howling’s return from Malta. Since then this Co-ALE-ition section of the OMRLP website has proved to be invaluable as it provides a direct link to all of the CO-ALE-ition information which can now be easily provided to breweries, pubs, Ale Festivals, newpapers and magazines etc rather than sending them lengthy emails with lots of attachments most of which probably never get read. The regularly updated OMRLP website containing all of the Co-ALE-ition latest news has also helped to give the project more credibility and momentum, lots of positive feedback has been received and OMRLP website links all over the internet if you Google “Co-ALE-ition”. In January Ascot Ales made the decision to market and sell all of their Single Hop IPA cask ale as Co-ALE-ition Hope & Glory and requested permission to sell it as Hope & Glory well beyond the 2015 General Election in May 2015. This decision by Chris Gill at Ascot Ales opened the door for a huge boost in Co-ALE-ition sales and for the 1st time a Co-ALE-ition ale (Hope & Glory) was sold in London at the Duke of Wellington in Hackney (North London) and it proved to be very popular. Ascot Ales also arranged a brewery swap with the Milestone brewery in Newark near Nottingham and Hope & Glory was on sale at two pubs in the Nottingham area. However problems continued with the ongoing sales of Co-ALE-ition ales as a result of two breweries continually badging ales under their original names to Co-ALE-ition pub leads which had been provided by Alan and Derrill. This policy was not only having a detrimental effect on Co-ALE-ition sales but also on the number of pub leads that were being generated by Alan and Derrill for these two breweries. Co-ALE-ition ale orders were also being delivered to pubs by these same two breweries where they provided both pumpclips (Co-ALE-ition and the original) which was particularly confusing to Wetherspoon pubs who often ended up using the wrong pumpclip. Alan went off to the Bath Ball in early Feb and two Co-ALE-ition ales were put on at the Volunteer Rifleman’s Arms in Bath by Landlord Paul Alvis (OMRLP member and supporter) for Alan and his friends to enjoy whilst they were in Bath. Peter Carr came over from Somerset and collected these casks of Co-ALE-ition ales from Langhams (Co-ALE-ition Gold) and Ascot (Hope & Glory) breweries, took them to Bath himself, sorted out the payments for the breweries and brought back the empty casks. This was a lot of additional effort which is unlikely to be repeated as it was not a success as the ale was delivered late and served in less than perfect condition when it came on for Alan and his friends. Alan also met up with Brendan McCabe in Bath to discuss the opportunity for a Co-ALE-ition ale to go into the House of Commons. The meeting went very well and for a time it looked like Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition would be going into the House of Commons bars but it was not to be as we discovered from Peter Carr very soon afterwards. Alan and Derrill met up in mid Feb and made the decision to approach two more local micro breweries to expand the range of locally produced Co-ALE-ition ales. The two breweries approached were Wild Weather in Silchester (Hants) and The Two Cocks brewery in Enborne (Berks). Mike Tempest at the Wild Weather brewery was delighted to be asked and readily agreed that we could rebrand their award winning Black Night ale as HowlinGale. Black Night is a 3.9% dark old ale and very different to any other Co-ALE-ition ale. The Two Cocks brewery, what a pumpclip that would have been, can you imagine the name of that brewery sitting on top of the usual photo of Cameron and Hope? However Two Cocks declined the opportunity citing the reason as “we made the decision some time ago not to affiliate the brewery to any political party” Whilst that was a disappointment it was great to hear that the OMRLP are regarded as a serious political party in some circles. We then approached Mash brewery in East Stratton (Hants) and there lots of enthusiasm from the co-owners Graham and John. We went out to see them at the Mash brewery and sampled four of their ales and unanimously selected Mash Gold to become the next Co-ALE-ition ale. The name of this ale was a no brainer i.e. Monster Mash and it is a 4% hoppy golden/blonde ale which gives us another session ale for the summer. Alan and a few others attended a Co-ALE-ition night at the Pommelers Rest in Bermondsey at the end of February. Hope & Glory was on sale and Chris Gill from Ascot brewery was there for a Meet the Brewer talk. This event took place 31 years ago in exactly the same week as the count took place in Feb 1983 at the Bermondsey by-election (first election were an OMRLP candidate stood). Confirmation was received that five Co-ALE-ition ales would definitely feature at the Fleet Lions Ale Festival on August 9th and Howling was to be the VIP guest. Mytchett Ale Festival agreed to order three Co-ALE-ition ales and again Alan will be there to open this Ale Festival on 25th April. Mytchett was where Alan was born and brought up so this is a very special occasion for him. The Watercress steam railway has agreed to order three different Co-ALE-ition ales for their Real Ale Trains running in August and October. Milk Street brewery and Peter Carr the Co-ALE-ition SW representative were really struggling to sell Co-ALE-ition Dark Side (Stout) in Somerset and the SW and were never able to get sufficient orders to make a delivery viable to pubs in Hampshire, Berkshire and Surrey. It was therefore decided by Alan and Derrill in March to cease promoting Milk Street’s Co-ALE-ition Dark Side and to seek out another award winning stout this time it had to be produced by a local micro brewery in Hampshire/Surrey/Berkshire. We were absolutely delighted to be offered a stout that had won the Silver award in its category in CAMRA’s Champion Winter Beer of Britian event at Derby in Feb 2014, and this new Co-ALE-ition stout should be available from June. Conversations continued with the Cheddar Ales brewery regarding the disappointing sales of Co-ALE-ition In The Black (Porter), a meeting is to be arranged with Cheddar Ales local wholesale agent (Jim Hamblin) who is based in Andover to see if we can help Co-ALE-ition In The Black achieve some sales in Hampshire, Surrey and Berkshire. These two difficult Somerset brewery experiences have helped to convince us that all future Co-ALE-ition breweries need to be located within 25 miles of Fleet (where Alan and Derrill both live). Chinners and Nick (Flying Brick) did some great work designing a Keep Calm poster for Co-ALE-ition. Chinners also produced a series of metal badges, key rings and fridge magnets representing each Co-ALE-ition pumpclip and a very informative A4 leaflet containing details of each Co-ALE-ition ale together with the brewery contact details which should be very helpful to leave behind whenever we make pub visits. On April 3rd the latest Co-ALE-ition ale was officially launched. This was called HowlinGale or is it really Howling Ale and it is a rebranded version of Wild Weather’s Black Night which is a 3.9% dark old ale with a pleasant bitter finish. The launch event took place at the Wild Weather brewery in Silchester followed by a pub crawl in Reading town centre to three great real ale pubs (Alehouse, Greyfriars, Nags Head) all of whom had HowlinGale on sale that night plus Hope & Glory as well at The Nags Head. This Wild Weather Co-ALE-ition launch was arranged by Mike Tempest the brewery owner and his wife Karen. Wild Weather have now taken the bar much higher for all future Co-ALE-ition launches and expectations are at a completely new level now. Jon Coward (Landlord of the Northbrook Arms in East Stratton) has invited us to sell Co-ALE-ition ales at his three day East Stratton Ale Festival over May Bank Holiday weekend (3/4/5 May). Jon has also ordered a Co-ALE-ition ale for the pub i.e. HowlinGale for the first time and Alan and Derrill went along to celebrate with Jon. The latest Wetherspoon pub opened on 8th April, it was The Queen in Aldershot. Alan and Derrill were invited to the pre opening events the week before and Alan was a VIP guest at the official opening day and was on all of the press photographs. Longdog’s winning Co-ALE-ition was on sale on the official opening day and two more Co-ALE-ition ales (Hope & Glory and Gold) were waiting in the pub’s cellar. Two Co-ALE-ition ales were on sale at the Mytchett Ale Festival – HowlinGale and Winning Co-ALE-ition, with Hope & Glory on tap in the Menber’s Bar. Alan and Derrill went along on the Friday, Alan officially opened this Ale Festival and sang a couple of songs. 10,000 pints of Co-ALE-ition had been sold by the end of April (7 months since the 1st launch) and more than 80 pubs based in 8 different counties plus Central London had sold at least one Co-ALE-ition ale. Wild Weather’s HowlinGale sales were way beyond our initial expectations for the first month and every pub lead we passed over was converted by the Wild Weather sales team which is a remarkable achievement. Mash brewery launched Monster Mash on 1st May 2014, a rebranded version of their award winning Mash Gold (4% abv hoppy, golden, session ale). This pumpclip was completely different from anything we had done before i.e. featured Alan and the whole OMRLP cabinet (thanks to the excellent photo provided by The Flying Brick). This pumpclip was very well received by everybody. Dr Graham Turner (Co-owner/Head Brewer of Mash brewery) and his wife Sarah organised the launch and did an amazing job. Alan Hope and the whole of the OMRLP cabinet turned up plus two other Loony Party members travelling to Hampshire from Derbyshire, Sussex and different parts of London. Many of us got to meet Chinners, RU Seerius, The Flying Brick, Baron Von Thunderclap, Knigel Knapp, Lady Hell ‘n’ Back and Badger for the first time and their attendance made the whole event a huge success i.e. reunited the 6 people on the Monster Mash pumpclip. After a very successful launch at the Mash brewery attended by circa 20 people, Graham and Sarah arranged transport for us all into Winchester. We went to The Fulflood Arms at 8pm where they had three Co-ALE-ition ales on that night — Monster Mash, HowlinGale and Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition. Landlord Clive greeted us wearing a Loony Party rosette from the 90s signed on the back by Lord Sutch. Phil Robins (Longdog), the very 1st Co-ALE-ition brewer, was also there to greet us, by now the party numbers had swelled to 40+ and the pub was packed. The Loony Party members all danced to the Monster Mash record whenever it came on which added to the general atmosphere and fun. Just after 9pm we all left and walked the short distance to The Albion pub where we were greeted by Landlord Paul Soulsby. Two Co-ALE-ition ales were available – Monster Mash and HowlinGale plus the Monster Mash record was played every 15 mins or so. Again our group packed out the Albion, which was the OMRLP’s HQ for ten days back in Nov 1997 at the famous Winchester by-election when Screamimg Lord Sutch stood for the OMRLP and that was the final time he ever stood as a candidate at an election. Alan and Derrill visited the Fulflood Arms and the Albion in Winchester the next day (2nd May) to thank them for the previous night. The night was a success for them as well and they were both keen to have the Loony Party back and to sell some more Co-ALE-ition ales. The Loony Party Ale stall at the East Stratton Ale Festival over the first May Bank holiday weekend was unfortunately not a success and as a result there was no donation made to the Loony Party funds. The best day by far was the Saturday but unfortunately the Loony Party stall was not open that day. Howling attended on both days, Sunday was hosted by Mike of Wild Weather and Monday by Graham on Mash, three Co-ALE-ition ales were on sale on both day – HowlinGale, Monster Mash and Hope & Glory. Two of the largest local micro breweries based in the SE have approached us with offers to rebrand one of their ales for Co-ALE-ition. The offer from the larger of these two breweries involves the rebranding of the highest selling ale produced in the Hants/Surrey/Berkshire area plus one of their other ales as well. Alan and Derrill are working through the details but if this was to take off Co-ALE-ition would be on sale everywhere. HowlinGale became the 1st Co-ALE-ition ale to feature at the famous Reading Ale Festival and Hope & Glory was on sale at the Wokingham May Fayre both took place during the 1st May bank holiday. Alan and Derrill did a tour of Oxfordshire in May supporting Mike Tempest and Wild Weather’s HowlinGale which was on sale at three pubs on the same night. These pubs were the Grapes in Oxford, the New Inn at Witney and the Royal Oak at Wantage. BBC Oxford was at the Grapes to record the event and the New Inn is David Cameron’s constituency pub when he visits Witney so lots of fun with HowlinGale especially the pumpclip featuring Hope & Cameron. HowlinGale was voted the winning Mild in the Best Mild of the Month competition held at the Prince Arthur in Fleet in late May. Mike Tempest from Wild Weather came along and and did a Meet the Brewer talk to an invited audience of over 20 people many of whom were CAMRA members. This was the first time that a Co-ALE-ition ale has won an award. Hope & Glory becomes the chosen World Cup ale for England supporters at the Prince Arthur in Fleet – fortunately Hope & Glory lasted a lot longer than England did and went on to become the second most popular Co-ALE-ition ale sold at the Prince Arthur after Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition. By the end of May the Prince Arthur had sold over 5000 pints of Co-ALE-ition and was on track to become the 1st (and probably only pub) to sell 100 casks (7000 pints) of Co-ALE-ition ale. Preparations were well underway for the launch of the 8th OMRLP ale which is our new Co-ALE-ition multi award winning stout from Ascot Ales brewery which replaced the Milk Street brewery stout (Co-ALE-ition Dark Side) that we launched in Dec 2013. Only a handful of people ever got to taste Co-ALE-ition Dark Side as it unfortunately failed to attract any sales in pubs outside of Somerset due to delivery issues.] Howling appeared on the BBC Politics Show in June and won the competition (awarded by Charles Clarke) for the iconic BBC Politics Show special mug for his spontaneous one line caption “Is this the coxless fours” in response to a photo of David Cameron in a boat with three other European leaders. Howling also gave studio guest Charles Clarke a run for his money when he openly criticised the current role and impact of the OMRLP. The Co-ALE-ition brand of ales also got a good mention from former OMRLP sponsor – Graham Sharpe of William Hill who suggested that brewery sponsorship of the OMRLP was the likely way forward. Howling took the opportunity to show the Longdog Winning Co-ALE-ition pumpclip and inform the TV audience that this OMRLP ale would be on sale in The Strangers Bar at the Houses of Parliament later in June. Official launch of Winning Co-ALE-ition with Howling’s two local MPs from left to right — Sir Gerald Howarth, Howling and James Arbuthnot One of the undoubted main highlights of the first year of Co-ALE-ition was the appearance of Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition in The Strangers Bar at the Houses of Parliament. Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition was the first ever Co-ALE-ition ale and the pumpclip features a photo taken at the count of David Cameron holding up Howling’s arm in triumph at the Witney General Election in May 2010. Phil and Lisa Robins had organised this through Maria Miller, their local MP, and on 25th June Howling went along to the launch with Lisa Robins, Knigel Group photo from left to right — Howling, Lisa Robins (Longdog brewery), Maria Miller, James Arbuthnot, Sir Gerald Howarth and Simon Hughes. “Big Fibber” Knapp and three other Co-ALE-ition supporters – Steve and Joy Lawson and Leon Slater. It was wonderful summer’s day capped by the attendance of not one MP as is the norm but four MPs who all joined in and drank Winning Co-ALE-ition with Howling and his group. The four MPs were Maria Miller (MP for Basingstoke and the former Co-ALE-ition Govt Minister for Culture), Sir Gerald Howarth (MP for Aldershot), James Arbuthnot (MP for North East Hampshire which includes Fleet where Howling lives) and finally Simon Hughes (MP for Bermondsey and current Co-ALE-ition Govt Minister Justice). Simon Hughes won the Bermondsey by-election back in Feb 1983 when the OMRLP fielded an election candidate MPs Maria Miller and Simon Hughes. Howling who is an expert on claiming expenses with his hand on Maria Miller’s shoulder. (Screaming Lord David Sutch) for the first ever time. Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition was introduced in Sept 1983 to celebrate 30 years since the OMRLP first stood at an election and poignantly Simon Hughes has held this Bermondsey seat for 30 years as well which is why he was also invited to the special launch event in The Strangers Bar. Five casks (360 pints) of Winning Co-ALE-ition were delivered to The Strangers Bar and all five casks were drunk in less than a week making it one of the most popular guest ales ever to appear in the Houses of Parliament. on the terrace in the Houses of Parliament — Knigel Knapp, Howling, Leon Slater and Joy Lawson. We will never know which famous political names drank Winning Co-ALE-ition that week in late June but we do know the pumpclip was the talk of the Houses of Parliament bars and there was not one request to remove it. This was yet another OMRLP record (lost count of them now), when they became the first ever political party to have their own commercially produced ale on sale in the Houses of Parliament. After the momentous visit to The Strangers Bar and the Houses of Parliament, the group visited three pubs in London i.e. Knigel “Big Fibber” Knapp’s local i.e. the Rochester Castle in Stoke Newington, the Crosse Keys (Wetherspoon’s flagship pub) in Gracechurch Street and finally the Pommelers Rest in Bermondsey which was very near to where the Bermondsey by-election count took place back in Feb 1983. Chris Gill of the Ascot Ales brewery had ensured that two Co-ALE-ition ales i.e. Hope & Glory and Monsters In The Dark were both on sale in all three of these pubs. The Crosse Keys had an electronic tariff board displaying all the real ales on sale and it was great for the group to see two of our Co-ALE-ition ales listed on this electronic board. All the pubs gave us a fantastic welcome and their hospitality was superb. The group then finally made their way to an Indian restaurant on the aptly named Tolley Street specially selected, but not researched, by Howling. A few of the group were “ratted” by now but they somehow got through the experience and lived to tell the tail. Our 8th Co-ALE-ition ale appropriately called “Monsters In The Dark” was officially launched on 3rd July 2014. Monsters In The Dark is a 5% Stout brewed by Ascot Ales and is a rebranded version of their multi award winning Anastasias 5% Exile Stout which has been awarded the best stout in London and SE by CAMRA for the last two years (2013 & 2014) and came runner up (Silver award) in the CAMRA 2014 UK National Champion Winter Beer of Britain awards in Feb 2014, making it the second best stout across the whole of the UK. Chris Gill (Owner/Head Brewer of Ascot Ales) arranged a fantastic launch event which would take us into three different counties drinking “Monsters In The Dark” on the very same night. The Monsters In The Dark official launch began at the Ascot Ales brewery in Camberley (Surrey) attended by 15 people who all enjoyed this new Co-ALE-ition ale. The Baron and Norman got held up in traffic coming over from West Sussex but still arrived in time to sample the ale at the brewery. The launch party now moved onto the Rose and Crown pub in Sandhurst (Berkshire) where more people joined us. The Landlord Peter Cozens and his wife Michelle had Monsters In the Dark on handpump and it was served in superb condition in this Berkshire CAMRA 2014 pub of the year. It was beautiful summer’s night as we all sat in the pub’s garden drinking Monsters In The Dark. Howling as usual was very active with the locals and in no time he had most of the pub drinking Monsters In The Dark. We then moved onto the Golden Pot in Eversley (Hampshire) another CAMRA 2014 Good Beer Guide pub. By now the group had swelled to over 20 people. The new Landlord, Gary Pope, had done us proud and again Monsters In The Dark was on the handpump and was served in very good condition, several of the locals joined in and enjoyed this new Co-ALE-ition ale. Three Monsters In The Dark and it is not just the ale they are drlnking. The launch party then moved on to the Waggon and Horses pub in Hartley Wintney (Hampshire) where once again Monsters In The Dark was available but this time it was served by gravity feed straight from the cask in the 500 year old stone floor cellar at this CAMRA NE Hampshire 2013 pub of the year. Niall Scott, the Landlord, had gone to bed, so Howling was unable to present him with our special framed certificate for becoming the first pub to sell 5 different Co-ALE-ition ales. Howling, Baron and Norman relax after a very busy night At 10pm we made our way to the Hook Tandoori in Hook (Hampshire) across the road from The Raven Hotel in Hook which had previously hosted two OMRLP annual conferences. Chinners paid a nostalgic visit to The Raven before catching the train home and the remaining 10 of us sat down for a meal including the OMRLP’s very own Lord Pilcot of Dogmersfield. The Hook Tandoori is rated the best Indian restaurant in Hampashire and the surrounding area and by the end of the night everybody could see why. Some great photos were taken of Howling, Chinners and the Baron with the Hook Tandoori main chef and his team. Howling signed the best one and included a personal message and we put it in a frame and presented it to the Hook Tandoori the following week, this framed photo now has pride of place on the special VIP/celebrity wall inside the Hook Tandoori. Howling was the VIP guest at the Hartley Wintney Football Club Ale Festival and he offically opened the Festival on Friday 18th July. Unfortunately there were very few people present on the Friday night and this event was very disappointing for a number of reasons. Just one Co-ALE-ition ale was on sale – Ascot Ales Hope & Glory. Howling and his small group left at 10pm and then made their way to the Prince Arthur in Fleet. A very special edition of Monster Mash in a bottle was officially launched at the Mash brewery in East Stratton on 25th July. Howling “bottled” the launch so Derrill did the honours in his absence. Pre ordered sales had reached the required break even point of 45 cases (540 bottles) which was the Mash brewery requirement before the label costs and production of 1000 bottles were given the go ahead. Derrill had to personally guarantee and underwrite this £900 break even cost for this opportunity to go ahead. Decision was then made to sell Monster Mash in a bottle at cost price i.e. £19.95 for a case of 12 and include free delivery. The label on the front of the Monster Mash bottle depicts Howling with all five members of his OMRLP cabinet and once again another record can be claimed “first time a UK political party has had in its own ale in a bottle sold commercially”. Steve Lawson who has attended all of the Co-ALE-ition events including all 8 Co-ALE-ition ale launches, met up with George Osborne (Co-ALE-ition Chancellor of the Exchequer) on a summer’s day in July at Dorneywood his residence in Buckinghamshire. Steve, who is also a member of CAMRA, took the opportunity to bring George up to speed on the Co-ALE-ition achievements and latest developments plus other CAMRA issues. Steve also explained that the GOLD in Langham’s Co-ALE-ition Gold now stood for “George Osborne Lowers Duty” in celebration of the Chancellor’s recent announcement on beer duty in the last annual budget speech. Co-ALE-ition Hall of Fame presentations of a special signed and framed OMRLP certificate were made to all of the following in the month of July:- Waggon and Horses in Hartley Wintney – to Landlord Niall Scott for becoming the 1st pub to sell 5 or more different Co-ALE-ition ales in less than 12 months. Ascot Ales brewery – to Owner/Head Brewer Chris Gill for selling 100 casks (7000 pints) of Co-ALE-ition Hope & Glory in less than 8 months. Ascot Ales brewery – to Owner/Head Brewer Chris Gill for selling Co-ALE-ition ales to more than 50 different pubs in less than 8 months. Longdog brewery – to Owners/Head Brewer Phil and Lisa Robins for selling 100 casks (7000 pints) of Winning Co-ALE-ition in less than 10 months In addition the Head Chef and his team at the Hook Tandoori were presented with a special signed photo taken on our visit together with a personal message from Howling for providing us with a superb meal at the Monsters In The Dark launch event in July. For further Hall of Fame information and presentation photos please go to the Co-ALE-ition section of the OMRLP website and access “Hall of Fame” from the Co-ALE-ition sub menu. The Fleet Lions Ale Festival (Pieces of Eight) took place on Sat 9th August 2014, there were 38 different ales on sale of which 6 were Co-ALE-ition ales. This was the first time that all 6 Co-ALE-ition ales plus Monster Mash in a bottle had featured in one location at the very same time. Howling presented a signed/framed certificate to the three main Organisers to recognise this achievement (see Hall of Fame section for details). Howling and Dan Franklin (one of Fleet Lions’ Ale Festival organisers) with the Stomping Nomads in the background. The Fleet Lions had done a great job putting all 6 Co-ALE-ition ales alongside each other on a specially erected Monster Raving Loony Party/Co-ALE-ition stall. The Co-ALE-ition pumpclips were very eye catching and proved to be a constant attraction to the 850+ people who attended. Surprisingly none of the Co-ALE-ition breweries were represented at this Ale Festival and apart from Howling there was nobody from the OMRLP there either. Howling opened up both the afternoon and evening sessions and performed the role of MC throughout the whole day. Howling took the opportunity to promote the OMRLP in both his opening speeches and also as he went round talking to the guests. He was much in demand for photos and autographs and by people just wanting to have a chat. Howling donated two signed bottles of Monster Mash to the Lions charity raffle and both winners were delighted to receive the signed bottles. The 6 Co-ALE-ition ales were in excellent condition and sold very well. Monster Mash was the 1st Co-ALE-ition ale and the 3rd ale overall to completely sell out on the day, all of the Co-ALE-ition ales had completely sold out by 9pm and by 9.15pm there were no ales or ciders left – a complete sell out for the first ever time so the Festival had to close at the published time of 9.30pm which would have been extended by an hour to 10.30 if there had been any ale left. Mash brewery’s Amber Ale was voted the best Ale of the Festival for which they received a framed certificate. Howling also received a special achievement certificate for his efforts on the day and Derrill was also given a special achievement award for all the publicity and promotion, both pre and post the event, which he had organised in the local newspapers (7 different stories in total were published) and also on the local radio station (Eagle). Derrill and Alan between them sold 82 bottles of Monster Mash for people to take away as they left the Fleet Lions Ale Festival. Almost 500 pints of Co-ALE-ition were sold on the day, easily a 1 day record for the Co-ALE-ition brand. This Fleet Lions Ale Festival experienced the highest ever attendance and sold a record amount of ale and cider so it was no surprise that the £7000 donation to the nominated charity was 40% higher than the previous best. Howling, Derrill and Co-ALE-ition made a significant contribution to this outstanding achievement which was captured in the written testimonial we received from the main Fleet Lions Ale Festival Organiser. Howling was invited to open the Ale Festival at the Old Bell in Grazeley on Sat 23rd Augsut 2014 which featured a selection of Wild Weather ales including HowlinGale. Howling went along with Steve & Joy Lawson where he met up with Mike Tempest (Wild Weather brewery owner and head brewer). They had a good time but Howling showed his competitive side and it was win at all costs side when it came to his participation in the sideshow events. Steve Lawson (No 1 Co-ALE-ition supporter) who has attended all of the Co-ALE-ition events so far met up with George Osborne at Dorneywood, his country residence in Bucks. Steve, who is also a CAMRA member, took the opportunity to tell George all about the Co-ALE-ition ales and specifically the recent appearance of Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition in the Houses of Parliament (Strangers Bar). George was also suitably impressed when he heard that after the April budget the GOLD in Langham’s Co-ALE-ition Gold now stands for “George Osborne Lowers Duty”. The commencement of the Co-ALE-ition 1st Year anniversary celebrations began on 27th August 2014 at the Nags Head in Reading. Jody Oates (Landlord) a keen supporter of Co-ALE-ition ales and had made sure all 6 Co-ALE-ition ales were on sale that night plus we also had a small supply of Monster Mash in a bottle. We had a good turn out of over 20 people at this event which included Loony Party members from North London (Knigel Knapp), Blackpool (Tony Davies), Walsall (Mark Beech) and Oxford (Mad Hatter). Colin Bex (Leader of the Wessex Regionlist Party) also came from East London to attend his 7th Co-ALE-ition event. The local Reading branch of CAMRA was well represented. Two Co-ALE-ition breweries were in attendance i.e. Mash brewery (Dr Graham Turner) and Wild Weather (Mike Tempest). The Co-ALE-ition ales were served in excellent condition at this highly rated real ale pub – been Reading & Mid Berks Pub of the Year for the last 6 consecutive years. The 6 Co-ALE-ition ales all completely sold out in less than 3 days, the first to go was Ascot’s Hope & Glory followed closely by Langham’s Co-ALE-ition Gold. Howling presented a signed/framed certificate to Jody Oates commemorating The Nags Head becoming the 1st Pub to have all 6 Co-ALE-ition ales on sale at the very same time (see Hall of Fame section for details). Howling also presented a signed bottle of Monster Mash to Jody and also to Phil Gill from CAMRA. Tony Davies was the star of the night, he managed to drink a pint of each Co-ALE-ition ale and was still able to beat Mark Beech at darts. Some of the group had a very good curry in Reading earlier in the evening but the rest of the group were able to enjoy the excellent food provided free of charge by the Nags Head. Monster Mash in a bottle was a big success with all 1000 bottles of this special limited edition completely sold out before the end of August. Monster Mash has been delivered to the Baron in West Sussex and to customers in Chelmsford and Wantage, Further deliveries to the Midlands, NW of England, Mid Wales, Marlow, Oxford, Surbiton and North London will take place in Sept. Feedback received so far has been excellent and many people have re-ordered. Hall of Fame presentations of OMRLP signed/framed certifcates in August were as follows:- Nags Head in Reading (Jody Oates) and the Fleet Lions (Jim, Dan and Jonathan). Signed and framed photographs were also presented to the Hook Tandoori where they now sit proudly in their VIP section. Derrill delivered Monster Mash cases to 3 customers in North London including Loony Party member Knigel “Big Fibber” Knapp and also 3 cases to Chessington (SW London) for Chinners and Badger but there was major congestion on the motorways and this trip was no world of adventure!! In addition Derrill also made deliveries to 10 customers on his mid Sept visit to the NW including scheduled drops to Loony Party members — Mark Beech in Walsall and Tony Davies in Blackpool. Howling and the Baron took 20 cases of Monster Mash between them to the Ridgebourne Inn in Landrindod Wells (Mid Wales) for the OMRLP Annual Conference (30th consecutive year of OMRLP annual conferences). Baron also delivered Monster Mash cases to several Loony Party members in Wales i.e. Nick “Flying Brick” Delves, Peter Hinchliffe and Jeremy Greenwood. Derrill took a promotional photo with the Eric Morecambe statue holding a bottle of Monster Mash which has already appeared in one newspaper and two magazine articles. The challenge has now been set to come up with the most interesting/unusual photos taken with a bottle of Monster Mash and entries will soon be coming in from Thailand, Turkey, Malta, Mount Kilimanjaro (Africa), Sydney (Australia) and Singapore (Asia) over the next few months. A business review of the “Monster Mash in a bottle” total sales of 83 cases (1000 bottles) revealed that 20 cases (240 bottles) of Monster Mash were sold to 12 OMRLP members and a further 8 cases (96 bottles) were sold at the OMRLP Conference in Wales i.e. a total of 28 cases (336 bottles) were sold to the OMRLP. Derrill was then left with the considerable task of having to not only sell but also deliver the remaining 55 cases (664 bottles) to his friends, CAMRA contacts and business colleagues which he was able to successfully achieve on this one off occasion. The Co-ALE-ition 1st Year anniversary party took place on 18th Sept (also forever remembered as the UK referendum vote day in Scotland). Howling and the Baron represented the OMRLP and Phil Robins (Longdog) represented the Co-ALE-ition breweries. The Mad Hatter (Oxford Loony) and Colin Bex (Leader of the Wessex Regionalist Party) sent their apologies, they were both in Edinburgh all week supporting the Yes vote. The Co-ALE-ition 1st Year anniversary day began with a special lunch for 9 people at Derrill’s house, hosted by his wife Sue, featuring Steak and Monster Mash Ale hotpot with jacket potatoes and crusty bread, followed by home made apple crumble and custard all washed down with bottles of Monster Mash. It was decided to have the fish starter aptly named “Salmond and Sturgeon on toast” the next morning. After picking up 20 cases of Monster Mash in the late afternoon from the Mash brewery for the OMRLP Annual Conference it was onto an early evening start in the Prince Arthur in Fleet. This event was hosted and organised by Howling and four different Co-ALE-ition ales were available for the first ever occasion at the Prince Arthur i.e. Monsters In the Dark, Hope & Glory, Co-ALE-ition Gold and Winning Co-ALE-ition were all available on handpump. Local CAMRA members, invited by Derrill, helped swell the numbers to over 20 at this point but disappointingly this was nothing like the 300+ attendance at the very high profile Winning Co-ALE-ition launch event organised at the same venue exactly a year ago. The main party of 6 left the Prince Arthur just before 10pm and headed to the Hook Tandoori to continue their 1st year anniversary celebrations and were able to drink chilled bottles of Monster Mash, poured perfectly, with their Indian meals rather than the usual expensive Indian fizzy lagers. Several of the Hook Tandoori staff asked for a bottle of Monster Mash as the party left just after midnight and there was lots of interest from other customers as well. Howling left a signed empty bottle of Monster Mash with the Hook Tandoori owner who has since put it into his VIP cabinet alongside some special personal memorabilia donated by world renowned international local golfer and Major winner/Ryder Cup star Justin Rose. The party were able to drink Co-ALE-ition ales at all three of these events on this special 1st year Co-ALE-ition anniversary day. The UK referendum vote outcome in Scotland that same day came up many times in conversation. The OMRLP’s three questions ” In, Out, Shake it all about ” recommendation for the Scotand voting form proved to be spot on in the end. The OMRLP Conference in Wales featured a Co-ALE-ition ale for the first ever time, this was Monster Mash in a bottle which was sold by the Ridgebourne Inn in Landrindod Wells at £3.20 per bottle. Only 8 cases of Monster Mash were sold at these prices at the Conference in Wales so 12 cases were returned by the Baron to Derrill who then had the pleasure of selling them all in the next 24 hours to lots of people already on a waiting list. The Radnorshire branch of CAMRA also came to the Ridgebourne Inn especially to drink Monster Mash and Howling also hosted their website launch event on the Sunday whilst he was there for the Conference. Co-ALE-ition Hall of Fame certificate awards were presented to Dr Graham Turner of Mash brewery for producing 1000 bottles of Monster Mash. Dan Proctor, the Manager of the Prince Arthur in Fleet, received two awards from Howling and Kevin Travers (CAMRA) i.e. one for becoming the first pub to sell 100 casks (7000 pints) of Co-ALE-ition and another for becoming the 1st Wetherspoon’s pub to sell 5 different Co-ALE-ition ales. Special presentations were also made to Joy & Steve Lawson and Leon Slater for their outstanding support and commitment to Co-ALE-ition over the last 12 months. Derrill had arranged for a poster (4 copies) celebrating Winning Co-ALE-ition going into the Strangers Bar back in late June to be signed by all four of the MPs who attended that day and these four framed posters were then presented to Lisa Robins (Longdog brewery), Howling, Steve & Joy Lawson and Leon Slater. Special thanks for producing all of these Hall of Fame certificates and posters must go to Jason ” Chinners ” Chinnery and to Derrill for supplying the design, photos, frames and then printing the certifcate/poster off on special photographic card to ensure that the zero cost requirement of Co-ALE-ition in terms of OMRLP funding was maintained. Howling stood at the Clacton on Sea by-election in October and was there for a week and he took the opportunity to give drop off two bottles of Monster Mash for Nigel Farage at UKIP HQ in Clacton. Nigel’s wife Kirsten, who is also his Secretary, has promised to send us a photo with Nigel drinking Monster Mash. A new Co-ALE-ition ale was specially launched at the end of October to celebrate the 30th OMRLP annual conference which took place in Wales this year. This new Co-ALE-ition ale, our 9th ale to be launched, is a Dark Porter (4.5%) produced by Ascot Ales which is to be called Ebony & Ivory (a dark beer contrasting with Howling’s all white outfit). We now have both a locally brewed Co-ALE-ition Stout (Monsters In The Dark) and a Porter (Ebony & Ivory) to replace the Co-ALE-ition stout and porter brewed by the Somerset breweries (Milk Street and Cheddar Ales) which were launched in late Dec 2013 but struggled to sell. The pumpclip photo is new and very recent i.e. it was taken at the 2014 OMRLP annual conference in Wales at the end of Sept thanks to the Flying Brick. The people featured on this new pumpclip photo are as follows: Howling is right in the front and from left to right at the back are Arty Pole from Lincolnshire, Baron Von Thunderclap from West Sussex, Lady Helenbak from Derbyshire, Anna Mona Lisa (Welsh Loonys), Giles Greenwood (Rochdale Loonys). Giles has already been in touch after securing an order for Ebony & Ivory from his local pub in Shropshire. A photo of Howling has featured on all 9 Co-ALE-ition pumpclips so far, photos of the Baron have featured on 3 Co-ALE-ition pumpclips so far and a photo of the Flying Brick, RU Seerius, Knigel Knapp and Chinners has featured on 2 Co-ALE-ition pumpclips so far. Ebony & Ivory will be officially launched at the 4 day Halloween Ale Festival held at the Rose and Crown in Sandhurst (Berkshire) at 7pm on Thursday 30th October. Ebony & Ivory will be in very good company as three other Co-ALE-ition ales i.e. Monster Mash, Monsters In The Dark and HowlinGale will also be available at what is widely regarded as one of the best Halloween Ale Festivals in the South and SE. Ascot Ales’ Hope & Glory IPA is officially now the No 1 selling Co-ALE-ition ale having taken over this mantle from Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition during the month of October. Over 10,000 pints of Hope & Glory have now been drunk in more than 70 different pubs since the launch event took place in Dec 2013. 30,000 pints of Co-ALE-ition ale have now been drunk in over 150 different venues. Howling has been given the privilege of securing our 10th Co-ALE-ition ale. He has made good progress at a recent second meeting with his contact at the Hogs Back brewery nearby in Surrey. Hogs Back have offered to rebrand their most famous ale (TEA) which is a low abv bitter and if they do this Co-ALE-ition ale will enjoy very wide distribution in terms of the number of pubs it is available in as Hogs Back are by far the biggest micro brewery in our area. The planned launch date is late January 2015 and this Co-ALE-ition ale should then be around until after the 2015 General Election. The standard Hogs Back pumpclips always feature a giant hog so the challenge for the new Co-ALE-ition pumpclip is to get our Boss Hog sitting on top of their hog, now that is what I would call “hogging the bar”. There is also good news around the corner involving Wild Weather’s HowlinGale (aka Howling ale). Wetherspoon’s real ale wholesaler (East West Ltd) has recently agreed that HowlinGale can be included on Wetherspoon’s quarterly list of real ales in 2015 i.e. Jan to March quarter or April to June quarter. This would mean that a Co-ALE-ition ale i.e. HowlinGale would then become available for all 900+ Wetherspoon pubs around the UK to order for a period of 3 months. HowlinGale will also be the next Co-ALE-ition ale to go into The Strangers Bar at the Houses of Parliament sometime during the early part of 2015 and definitely before the May General Election. Photos of Howling together with good coverage in stories have featured three times this year in the Wetherspoon’s quarterly magazine which is read by millions of people across the whole country. On the back of all this Wetherspoons publicity, Howling is aiming to set up a meeting with Wetherspoons early in the New Year to take this partnership to the next level, so watch this space. The CAMRA Good Beer Guide (GBG) for 2015 came out in Sept 2014. The pub entry on pages 184/185 for the Prince Arthur in Fleet states the following:- “The house beer, Winning Co-ALE-ition, is Longdog Brindle Bitter, renamed in association with the Official Monster Raving Loony Party, whose leader lives locally and is a regular” The CAMRA GBG is the bible for CAMRA’s 170K members and is purchased and read by millions of people every year. In mid Oct, six guys popped into the Prince Arthur in Fleet asking for Howling and were disappointed to hear he was not in and also that Winning Co-ALE-ition was not available either. Several CAMRA branches have approached Derrill asking him to write a Co-ALE-ition story with a local flavour for their branch magazines. So far Derrill has produced 2 page stories and photos for Beer Lines (CAMRA North Hants branch mag) and Mine’s A Pint (CAMRA Reading and Mid Berks branch mag) in October. Co-ALE-ition sales continue to go from strength to strength with record monthly sales achieved in November mainly through the efforts and commitment of Chris Gill and at Ascot Ales brewery. Ascot Ales have now sold 250 casks (this represents over 17,000 pints sold) of Co-ALE-ition ale in the 1st year of production. Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition continues to sell very well at The Prince Arthur in Fleet but is rarely seen these days at other venues so the Prince Arthur is definitely the place to go if you want to drink our very 1st Co-ALE-ition ale. Total sales of Co-ALE-ition are edging ever closer to another milestone i.e. 500 casks (35,000 pints) and more than 10 new pubs are ordering a Co-ALE-ition ale every month now. Co-ALE-ition ales have been sold in 14 different counties of England plus Central London and Wales as well. Both Winning Co-ALE-ition and Hope & Glory have now sold more than 10,000 pints. Ascot Ales brewery’s Ebony & Ivory was successfully launched at the 4 day Halloween Ale Festival at the Rose & Crown in Sandhurst in late Oct/early Nov where all 4 Co-ALE-ition ales sold out very quickly. Unfortunately Howling arrived very late for the official opening event and missed the photo session with two local newspapers. Being Halloween, Howling came in a pumpkin style hat completely hiding his face and was dressed in all black so very few people recognised him. Over 1000 pints of Ebony & Ivory were sold in the first month of production and Giles Greenwood (guy with the hoody on the Ebony & Ivory pumpclip) has recently confirmed an order for Ebony & Ivory from his local village pub in Shropshire. There was an excellent three page article in CAMRA’s “Mine’s A Pint” about Co-ALE-ition and the Loony Party, this can be viewed at the Co-ALE-ition newspaper cuttings section on the OMRLP website. There will also be 2 page Co-ALE-ition/Loony Party articles appearing in two more CAMRA magazines – Beer Lines and News & Ale over the next couple of months. Wild Weather are currently in deep discussions with Wetherspoons regarding the opportunity of “HowlinGale” becoming available in their 900+ Wetherspoon pubs i.e. across the whole of the UK for a three month period in the run up to the 2015 General Election. A new HowlinGale pumpclip (see picture), which was deemed to be acceptable to Wetherspoons, has been specially designed by Wild Weather for this very purpose. If successful this Co-ALE-ition opportunity could further open the door for Howling to have further discussions with Wetherspoons about sponsoring the OMRLP’s 2015 General Election campaign. Howling is still in discussions with the Hogs Back local brewery in Surrey about producing a Co-ALE-ition rebranded bitter (HBB). Hogs Back are by far the largest micro brewery in our area and if it goes ahead this new Co-ALE-ition ale should have a very wide pub distribution in the run up to the 2015 General Election. Howling is confident that everything will be agreed with the Hogs Back brewery before he goes away on holiday in January ready for a launch event when he comes back to the UK in mid February. There are no pumpclip designs or even the name of the ale which I can share with you at the moment, but hopefully, as these discussions have been ongoing since April we are not far away from a successful conclusion. The Nags Head in Reading became the 1st pub to sell all 7 Co-ALE-ition ales, they took Ebony & Ivory in the month of November. On my recent visit to the Nags Head they also had a bottle of Monster Mash, signed by Howling, positioned alongside several other very rare bottles of ale, right above the bar. Derrill was away on holiday for three weeks in November, he went to Singapore for 3 days and then had 2 weeks in Sydney. Whilst he was away he maximised the opportunity to promote the Co-ALE-ition range of ales via a bottle of Monster Mash which also at the same time publicised the OMRLP. In Singapore Derrill visited the world famous Long Bar located in the Raffles Hotel. Susan, his wife, was drinking the legendary Singapore Sling cocktails at £15 a go and throwing empty peanut shells everywhere but Monster Mash still managed to make its mark in this exalted company. Draft Tiger Beer was on sale everywhere in Singapore and after that the choice was an imported bottle, Monster Mash would have made a killing if it had been on sale. Derrill managed to blag his way into the cocktail bar on the top floor (57th) of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel which is not only the most expensive hotel in the world but also the most expensive building in the world. Danny, the top cocktail shaker, who was from Las Vegas, personally made Susan’s Singapore Sling and as we sat at the bar the conversation turned to Monster Mash and the OMRLP. Danny took down details of the OMRLP website address and after his return from his break he asked Derrill to take some photos of him with Monster Mash which Derrill was more than willing to do. Danny told Derrill he was going to send these photos to all of his family and friends most of whom were in the USA. Nobody Derrill first spoke to in Sydney had even heard of the OMRLP, or indeed recognised Howling our esteemed Leader, which initially surprised Derrill but by the time he was leaving Australia everybody he had got to know over the two weeks not only knew about Howling the Aussie TV star but they wanted to know more about the Loony Party and their Co-ALE-ition ales as well. Monster Mash was taken to the very top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge by Derrill’s wife Susan, Derrill chickened out saying “it was a bridge too far” but he was photo’d with a bottle of Monster Mash half way up the Sydney Harbour Bridge with the iconic Sydney Opera House in the background. Both of these photos have been sent to the two main Sydney daily newspapers – The Herald and The Observer who heard about Derrill’s visit and asked him to submit a story which he sent to them in early Dec. A visit to The Royal Albert pub in Surry Hills proved to be very beneficial. There was an ale on sale (see photo) from the other Mash brewery, this one is based in Swan Valley, Western Australia. Derrill has since got in touch with the Mash brewery in Western Australia and they have agreed to rebrand their very popular 4.5% apple cider which they call “Crush” as Monster Mash, this rebranded craft cider will soon be available both on draft and also in a bottle. One of the highlights for Derrill was a visit to the Harts pub in The Rocks area of Sydney. The Harts pub, which is owned by the Rocks micro brewery, is Sydney’s premier real ale pub which always has at least one real ale available on handpump. Derrill was in the Hart pub with the locals on the Friday night immediately after the Rochester & Strood by-election result. He was amazed when the TVs in the pub were showing the Australian News and BBC World News and there on the TV screen was Howling over 12,000 miles away with his arms being raised by Nigel Farage at the UKIP celebration party. This News clip video (3 mins) can be viewed on the main OMRLP website, the bit Derrill saw in Australia kicks in around 2.25 mins. The discussion afterwards in the Australian TV studios, prompted by Nigel Farage’s throwaway comment, centred on whether Howling was going to become the next big name defector to UKIP. This News item was repeated every 30 mins that night and it did wonders for both the credibility of the OMRLP and our Co-ALE-ition ales. Since then The Rocks brewery have since agreed to rebrand their Convict Lager (5.1% abv) and the name we have selected is “Co-ALE-ition On The Rocks” The ALE stands for Australian Loony Experience and the present Australian Govt is also a Co-ALE-ition and is seen to be failing so a good link there as well The Rocks brewery and the OMRLP seem like a perfect fit e.g. The Rocks brewery slogan is “Brewers with Conviction” because the two owners are 5th and 6th generation decendents from British convicts and Howling is at his happiest when he can play his “get out of jail” card!! Derrill also had some early success at the Lord Nelson micro brewery and pub which was again in The Rocks area of Sydney. The Lord Nelson is the oldest pub brewery in Australia and is also the oldest licensed hotel in Sydney. When the Landlord saw the bottle of Monster Mash and heard about the Howling Laud he agreed that the bottle of Monster Mash could make an appearance in The Lord’s’ Tray which again stimulated lots of interest and conversation. Since Derrill’s return to the UK he has been in conversation with his contact at The Lord Nelson brewery about a Co-ALE-ition ale and further discussions have taken place about rebranding one of their two session ales – Three Sheets or Quayle Ale with the following name suggested – Laud Help Us! Howling always said he wanted to have a cider and a lager in the Co-ALE-ition portfolio and now two Australian micro breweries are going to deliver this wish in plenty of time before the 2015 UK General Election. The next step in the process will be to get some bottles exported from Australia to Fleet. The one guarantee is that Co-ALE-ition On The Rocks lager will defintely be a much bigger seller than Fosters Lager in Australia as Fosters has not been available in Australia since 1999 despite the UK adverts telling us that Fosters Lager is the No 1 selling lager in Australia! Derrill also visited Palm Beach which has Summer Bay at its Northern end. Summer Bay is where they film the Aussie soap “Home and Away”. Filming was taking place that day, Derrill and Susan were used as extras and were filmed eating a meal in the restaurant, Derrill took the opportunity whilst he was there to get Monster Mash some exposure on the Home and Away film set. Derrill did have a couple of failures, the first one involved the US actor Bruce Willis who was filming at Sentosa Island (Singapore), Bruce was not interested in Monster Mash and his entourage quickly moved him on when he stepped alongside Bruce. Monster Mash also went along to the Sydney Cricket Ground for the Australia v South Africa cricket match but unfortunately the glass bottled version of Monster Mash was not allowed inside the ground but photos were still taken outside which fitted the occasion to a T. By now competition was building up in the other Sydney pubs Derrill had visited e.g. Quarrymans, Local Taphouse, 4Pines and the YarmArm both at Manly as they all wanted a souvenir bottle of Monster Mash, Derrill had only taken three bottles with him so he ran a competition for the best photos taken with a bottle of Monster Mash and the three winners were judged to be as follows:- The 4Pines pub at Manly Co-ALE-ition had a very successful end to the year with almost 4000 pints drunk over the Xmas/New Year holiday period. Total sales are edging ever closer to 40,000 pints and almost 200 different pubs have now ordered and sold at least one of our Co-ALE-ition ales. The target was to exceed 50,000 pints of Co-ALE-ition sales before the 2015 General Election in early May. Ascot Ales’ Hope & Glory remains the most successful Co-ALE-ition ale with 12,000 pints sold in its very first year. This is a Single Hop IPA where IPA does not stand for India Pale Ale but reflects the No 1 objective of the Loony Party entering into a Co-ALE-ition with the Conservatives i.e. Insanity Prevents Austerity. Hope & Glory uses a different variety of Single Hop every month which means that over the course of the year there have been 12 different versions of our most popular Co-ALE-ition ale. In total, the Ascot Ales brewery with their three popular Co-ALE-ition ales,(Hope & Glory, Monsters In The Dark and Ebony & Ivory), have now sold 250 casks i.e. 17,500 pints. The Prince Arthur in Fleet is out on its own as the most successful Co-ALE-ition pub with over 10,000 pints of Co-ALE-ition sold so far. The multi CAMRA award winning Nags Head pub in Reading remain the only pub who have sold all 7 Co-ALE-ition ales including 6 at the very same time (Co-ALE-ition 1st year Anniversary Party in Aug 2014). The Royal Military Academy In Sandhurst (Berkshire) where Prince Andrew graduated ordered 4 casks of Co-ALE-ition from Ascot Ales brewery for their Xmas dinners, functions and events. Would love to have been there and seen the next generation of Army officers after a session on “Monsters In The Dark” or indeed “Ebony & Ivory”. Chris Gill, the Owner and Head Brewer of Ascot Ales said in a recent local CAMRA magazine article at the end of 2014 “Working with the OMRLP to rebrand three of our most popular ales as Co-ALE-ition has had a very positive impact on our sales. Derrill and Alan, through their many pub and CAMRA connections together with the extensive publicity and promotional campaigns they have organised have introduced Ascot Ales brewery to lots of new customers. As a direct result of our involvement with the OMRLP and Co-ALE-ition our sales and profits have grown considerably and I have now been able to take on an additional member of the sales team”. There was a big demand for bottles of Monster Mash over Xmas, Derrill had a few cases of his own which were quickly snapped up and he could easily have sold over 50 cases (600 bottles) from the middle of December if the stock had been available. We reached another milestone on Dec 2014 when our 100th different Co-ALE-ition story appeared in a newspaper. There are at least 5 more Co-ALE-ition stories in the pipeline which will appear in newspapers or magazines over the next 2 months. Still no further news to report on any of the three big projects for 2015 i.e. launch of Hogs Back brewery’s Co-ALE-ition bitter session ale, Wild Weather’s HowlinGale appearing on Wetherspoon’s quarterly list for all 900+ pubs to order from during April and May and also HowlinGale going into the Strangers Bar (Houses of Parliament) between Feb and early May. Monster Mash cider will be launched in a bottle in Australia over the Australia Day weekend (24th to 26th Jan), a case of 12 bottles is winging its way too me. Our Aussie lager “Co-ALE-ition On The Rocks” should be available on draft in several Sydney pubs from early Feb onwards. 10.Howling is hoping to arrange a meeting with Simonds brewery (used to be in Reading) to explore a European Co-ALE-ition opportunity whilst he is away in Malta from mid Jan to mid Feb but he still expects to have tied up the Hogs Back launch arrangements before he goes away. Some good publicity for the OMRLP and Co-ALE-ition in a New Statesman story as a result of an interview held with Howling in the Prince Arthur in Fleet. In the quest for 2015 General Election sponsorship there is some great coverage of Howling and the OMRLP in the next edition of Wetherspoon’s quarterly magazine (due out in early Feb 2015) which will be available in their 900+ pubs across the whole of the UK. Great to see Eric Morecambe back in situ on Morecambe Prom after somebody sawed through one of his legs in an attempt to steal him presumably for the value of the metal. After three months away for repairs Eric returned much wiser from the experience and was welcomed back by over 10,000 people on Morecambe seafront where local Loony Party sympathiser, Mike “Geordie” Carlin (he used to stay with Howling at the D&P in Yateley) ensured Eric was able to celebrate his return with a bottle of Monster Mash overlooking Morecambe Bay and the Lake District. Derrill Carr’s daughter, Melanie, climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro (Tanzania in Africa) in late Dec. The climb took a total of 6 days (40 miles) and she got to the very top (20,000 feet above sea level) on New Year’s Day. She raised over £4000 for her chosen charity (Lymphona and Leukaemia research) and also took a bottle of Monster Mash to the very top with her. Melanie’s first text back to her parents after 21 hours trekking that day said “I made it to the very top and so did Monster Mash”. Who said Howling and the Loony Party had peaked some years ago and then went on to say they will never reach such heights again? Melanie gave the bottle of Monster Mash to her African guide as a momento and he in return gave her a bottle of Kilimanjaro brewed Lager to bring back home for Derrill. The African guide has since come back to Melanie on an email wanting to know more about the OMRLP, their Co-ALE-ition ales and who the people are on the label of the bottle of Monster Mash, R U Seerius could Howling, Baron, Flying Brick, Chinners and Big Fibber now be more well known in parts of Africa than they are in parts of the UK? Monster Mash on its World Tour over the last 2 months has now appeared alongside the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House, Summer Bay (Home and Away film set), Sydney Cricket Ground, Bondi Beach, the famous Long Bar at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore, 57th floor of the most expensive hotel in the world i.e. the Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore and has now been to the very top of Mount Kilimanjaro. Monster Mash has visited three other continents in addition to other parts of Europe i.e. Asia, Australasia and Africa. It is fair to say that people in Sydney, Singapore and Kilimanjaro are now far more aware of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party than UKIP and the three main stream parties in the UK. John Wall, Howling, Lord Hannah, Steve Gorys, Sir Gerald Howarth OMRLP member and supporter, Martin Hannah (Lord Hannah of Pilcot) died in early January 2015. Martin was also a supporter of our Co-ALE-ition ales, he attended three Co-ALE-ition launch events including the Winning Co-ALE-ition launch event at the Prince Arthur in Fleet in Sept 2013. Here is a photo of Martin with Howling, Stephen Gorys (Chairman of Hart Council) and Sir Gerald Howarth (MP for Aldershot) at the Prince Arthur launch event. Martin also bought a case 12 bottles) of Monster Mash even though his drink of personal choice was brandy. Great story about the OMRLP in the New Statesman in Dec featuring Howling and quotes from several members of the OMRLP Caninet. The reporter met Howling in the Prince Arthur in Fleet and said “Everyone in the Prince Arthur greeted him warmly, there was a beer on tap called The Winning Co-ALE-ition and the pumpclip had a picture of David Cameron holding Hope’s arm aloft” Alan “Howling Laud” Hope was away in Malta for a month in Jan/Feb so Derrill took over the lead on the Hogs Back brewery negotiations at was the most critical time to try to ensure the delivery and availability of our 10th Co-ALE-ition ale, brewed especially for the 2015 General Election. Derrill struck up a very good working relationship with Jill Adams (Hogs Back brewery’s new Marketing Manager) and was able to make real progress in just a few weeks after initial discussions had taken place nine months previously and had then stalled for 6 months. The aim was to have this new Co-ALE-ition ale launched by mid March and for it to be on sale to lots of pubs from late March onwards. The pumpclip design and production went very smoothly and the Hogs Back designers created a brilliant caricature of Howling in his all white outfit but with a hog’s face and hands (see photo). There was a slight delay as the original name selected by Hogs Back brewery “Thirst Past the Post” had already been used by another brewery and the decision was taken by Hogs Back to come up with another name which Derrill duly did with Co-ALE-it10n “Hog In the Limelight” (refers to Howling “Hogging The Limelight” and centre stage at General Election time.) Derrill has now not only come up with the brand name “Co-ALE-ition” but he has also come up with the names of all ten of the Co-ALE-ition ales plus the new OMRLP interpretations of ALE (Another Loony Experience) contained in the name Co-ALE-ition, IPA (Insanity Prevents Austerity) and GOLD (George Osborne Lowers Duty) etc. Who said Accountants were only bean counters and could never be creative! Whilst Howling was in Malta he once again approached the Maltese brewery, Simonds Farsons Cisk (SFC), who had previous close connections/affiliations to Reading, to discuss the opportunity to brew the very first Co-ALE-ition international lager. However for the second year running Alan was unable to arrange a meeting with SFC and could not make any progress at all, so this opportunity is no longer being pursued. Negotiations continued with Wetherspoons regarding seeking their agreement for a Co-ALE-ition ale to go onto Wetherspoons quarterly list of real ales for the three month period starting in April and ending in June 2015. The specific aim was to have a Co-ALE-ition ale available throughout the whole of the UK in the run up to the 2015 General Election and for this ale to be available for all 930 Wetherspoon pubs to order. Derrill approached all of the Co-ALE-ition breweries about this opportunity but apart from Wild Weather they all declined. Derrill was fully supported in this quest by Mike Tempest (Owner and Head Brewer of Wild Weather). After 12 months of working on this major objective, agreement was finally obtained from East West/Wetherspoons at the end of January 2015. This agreement would never have happened without the tremendous support we received from David Aucott of East West Ales (Wetherspoon’s wholesale supplier of all their real ales). The original HowlinGale pumpclip, featuring David Cameron and Alan Hope, was replaced by a more modern style HowlinGale pumpclip which featured a relaxed/laid back Howling on his own. This version was quickly approved as it was considered to be less provocative and more acceptable to the Wetherspoon management and their customers. Since then over 1000 of these new HowlinGale pumpclips have been produced and pre-distributed to all 900+ Wetherspoon pubs in late March/early April. Alan Hope, had a previous beer sales connection with Dave Paterson when Howling was Landlord of the Dog and Partridge at Yatelely, Dave is the current Hogs Back brewery Sales Manager and Alan through his relationship with Dave was instrumental in getting, what remains by far the biggest micro brewery in our area, to produce our 10th Co-ALE-ition ale. The ale selected for rebranding was Hogs Back Bitter (HBB) which is a 4% abv session ale. Hogs Back brewery have more than 800 clients and an extended reach in terms of sales distribution so hopes were very high that Co-ALEit10N Hog In The Limelight would become our No 1 selling Co-ALE-ition ale in the two month run up to the General Election through to early May. Co-ALE-ition “Hog in the Limelight” brewed by Hogs Back brewery in Tongham (Surrey) was officially launched on 12th March 2015 at the Hogs Back brewery at an event hosted by David Paterson (Sales Manager) and Jill Adams (Marketing Manager). We then visited four local pubs i.e. Nelson Arms (Farnham), Shepherd & Flock (Farnham), The Queen (Aldershot) and the White Hart (Tongham). Hog in The Limelight was available on handpump in all four of these pubs, voted best pint of HITL on the night was the White Hart very closely followed by the Nelson Arms. Best Launch Party atmosphere and customer/staff involvement was at The Queen in Aldershot. Wild Weather’s HowlinGale was relaunched in late March 2015 to officially celebrate the three month Wetherspoons contract agreement, covering the months of April, May and June 2015 to supply up to 930 Wetherspoon pubs in the UK with HowlinGale. These launch events took place on 25/26 March at the Wild Weather brewery in Silchester (Hants/Berks border) and also in three pubs in Newbury — Cow and Cask served straight from the cask, Hatchet (Wetherspoons) and at the Wild Weather tap takeover held at the Catherine Wheel. We were joined by Tim Thomas and other CAMRA members from the local branch. Photos from these special launch events, together with a feature story, will appear in Wetherspoons next quarterly magazine which is due out in early June and in the Newbury CAMRA branch magazine called Ullage also due out in June. A decision was made in January to specially promote and publicise just five of our ten Co-ALE-ition ales in the run up to the 2015 General Election. The Famous Five as these Co-ALE-ition ales were referred to were selected based on three different criteria i.e. the most consistently successful selling Co-ALE-ition ales, co-operation, communication and commitment from the brewery and finally the reach in terms of their customer base and delivery range. The five Co-ALE-ition ales specially selected for our 2015 General Election promotion and publicity campaigns were: Hope & Glory (Ascot), Hog In The Limelight (Hogs Back), Monsters In The Dark (Ascot), HowlinGale (Wild Weather) and Ebony & Ivory (Ascot). A very good selection of ales were included in the Famous Five as there was a low strength session bitter, a stout, a porter, an IPA and a low strength dark old ale/mild which also supported CAMRA’s Mild Month of May campaign. Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition and Langham’s Co-ALE-ition Gold were expected to only be on sale at the Prince Arthur in Fleet during the period until after the General Election results were announced and a new Govt was formed in early May 2015. Ascot Ales offered a special promotion deal to pubs in the run up to the General Election. Any pub ordering all three of Ascot’s Co-ALE-ition ales at the very same time would receive an additional 10% discount and therefore pay less than £200 (excl VAT) for three (9 gallon) casks including delivery. Ascot’s Co-ALE-ition ales go from strength to strength. Hope & Glory featured at CAMRA’s National Winter Ale Festival in Derby in Feb and also appeared at both the Wigan Ale Festival and the Atherton Ale Festival. Monsters In the Dark was on sale at the Reading Ale Festival in April, Hogs Back, Longdog, Mash, Wild Weather and Mash were also there but their Co-ALE-ition ales were not invited. In addition Ascot Ales won three awards (1 Gold and 2 Bronze) at the London and SE Champion Beer of Britain awards in March. CAMRA 2014 Top 16 in the UK pub, the Five Bells at Wickham, sold a Co-ALE-ition ale for the very first time, it was Monsters In The Dark which they selected. Alan, Derrill and the Lawsons (Steve & Joy) attended the opening events in early March at the new Wetherpoon pub in Alton (Hampshire) called the Ivy House, there were no Co-ALE-ition ales on sale which was disappointing and Howling was not invited to attend the opening ceremony. I think they thought Howling would be “Hogging The Limelight” again just as he did at The Queen (Aldershot) opening event held about a year ago. There has been lots of recent coverage in local CAMRA branch Magazines about the Co-ALE-ition success story e.g. Surrey & Hants Borders branch ” News & Ale ” magazine (3 pages), Reading & Mid Berks branch “Mines a Pint” magazine (3 pages) and North Hants branch “Beer Lines” magazine (2 pages). Copies of all of these articles can be read in the Co-ALE-ition section of the OMRLP website in the Newspaper Cuttings subsection. There will also be a Co-ALE-ition story about our recent visit to Newbury to launch HowlinGale in the CAMRA West Berks branch magazine which is called “Ullage” in the edition due out in June. Alan “Howling Laud” Hope had a half page feature all on his own in Wetherspoon’s quarterly magazine – Spring edition (March 2015). Howling was described in this feature as a “Wetherspoon ambassador” and the story highlighted his strong passion for retaining old historic buildings in town centres and his special interest in visiting different Wetherspoon pubs as he tours the UK in his official capacity as Leader of the OMRLP – Alan has been to over 500 Wetherspoon pubs since he became OMRLP Leader in 1999. There are 57,000 copies of the Wetherspoon magazine issued every quarter (bigger circulation than OK magazine) and the magazine is read by millions of people in Wetherspoon pubs across the whole country. We hoped that this story would help to further highlight Howling’s role and high profile with Wetherspoon’s management and lead to some OMRLP sponsorship in time for the 2015 General Election. There will be another feature on Co-ALE-ition and Howling in the June (Summer) edition of Wetherspoon’s magazine at the Wetherspoon’s special launch of HowlingGale in late March at the Wild Weather brewery and in three pubs in Newbury. After Tim Martin (Owner and Founder of Wetherspoons), Howling is the next most regularly featured person in the Wetherspoon’s quarterly magazine i.e. 5 feature stories, all of them including photos, have appeared about Howling since Jan 2014. Further very exciting news is expected to follow in early May about some JDW sponsorship of the OMRLP. Nigel Knapp and the Big Fibbers recorded their version of Monster Mash. the legendary 60’s record, which celebrated Co-ALE-ition Monster Mash ale in a bottle as brewed by the Mash brewery from East Stratton (Hants). Monster Mash ale has a special place in the hearts of the OMRLP as this was the first and only Co-ALE-ition ale launch when Howling and the entire OMRLP cabinet, all six of whom featured on the actual pumpclip, attended together. We all had a great night after the brewery launch at two Winchester pubs and at the same time the OMRLP launched their European Election manifesto to the Press. The words of the original Monster Mash song were even changed to incorporate Mash brewery and East Stratton. This is yet another OMRLP first as there has never been a song recorded about about an ale before. A special video was produced which featured members of the OMRLP dancing along to Monster Mash. So far there have been over 2800 views of this Monster Mash video and it has been very well received and given lots of publicity and promotion. The next challenge is to get as many people downloading this Monster Mash record during w/c 4th May so that it can make the Top 40 in General Election week on 10th May. Mash brewery still hope to have Monster Mash available on handpump at some pubs in the run up to the General Election but have confirmed there will not be any more bottles of Monster Mash available. The Monster Mash record launch featuring a live performance by Nigel Knapp and the Big Fibbers took place at the Rhythm Factory in Whitechapel (London). About 80 people attended this event including Andy from Mash brewery who brought along some Monster Mash ale which went down very well with everybody on the night. Emily Ashton (Buzz Feed News) and James (photographer) captured everything and there was great coverage of this live event in the press a few days later. Dan Proctor, Manager of the Prince Arthur in Fleet for the last 4 years, left in March to go to another Wetherspoon’s pub (Quarterjack) in Wells, Somerset. Dan was a big friend and supporter of Co-ALE-ition right from the outset, and his Co-ALE-ition achievement will never be matched i.e. sold over 10,000 pints of Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition and allowed it to become the house ale and No 1 selling real ale at the Prince Arthur, sold 5 different Co-ALE-ition ales and over 12,000 pints of Co-ALE-ition ale in total, hosted the launch event for Winning Co-ALE-ition in Sept 2013 when 300 people attended the Prince Arthur and also the 1st year Co-ALE-ition anniversary event in Sept 2014. In both 2014 & 2015 the Prince Arthur in Fleet was included in CAMRA’s Good Beer Guide for the first time for seven years and the GBG contains a reference to the Leader of the OMRLP and the house Co-ALE-ition ale which has attracted visitors to the Prince Arthur from all around the UK. Bart Longier, the new Manager at the Prince Arthur and Ale Champion/top cellarman Bob Long have both confirmed their continued support for Co-ALE-ition ales. The Prince Arthur is putting 6 different Co-ALE-ition ales on at the Prince Arthur during the 10 days before the General Election in support of Mad Max (OMRLP candidate for North Hants) whose Campaign HQ and the OMRLP GE Victory Party, hosted by Howling and Mad Max will be held at the Prince Arthur on Frday 8th May. Marston’s brewery claimed in their Wychwood Press Release (Bottle Party) on 25th March 2015 that it was David Cameron who came up with the Co-ALE-ition name, this Press Release has since disappeared and is no longer available on line, fortunately Howling still has a printed copy. We all know it was a DC who first came up with the name “Co-ALE-ition” and it was not David Cameron but our very own Derrill Carr, who can now proudly introduce himself as an “Official Advisor to David Cameron”. Buzz Feed News (Emily Ashton) provided excellent coverage in two separate very detailed stories “Did Cameron get his CO-ALE-ition idea from the Monster Raving Loony Party”. Emily Ashton then did a follow up on Buzz Feed News, in a new story titled “OMRLP rule out future coalition with Tories after the arrogant theft of their Co-ALE-ition brand name by David Cameron” Both of these stories, which also contained lots of photos, went viral worldwide all over the internet and were still appearing on new websites in late April, The Daily Mirror also picked up on this story and ran an online Poll amongst its readers as to which Co-ALE-ition ale they preferred, not surprisingly the Loony Party Co-ALE-ition ale secured 96% of the total votes and Cameron’s version only received 4% of the votes so in 30 years of the OMRLP this is the first time thay have come out on top of the Conservative Party, If this swing was to be repeated in the 2015 General Election the Loony Party would be elected in May with a large majority and Howling would end up in No 10. Other stories on these same themes appeared in the Times and the Telegraph. Howling complained in writing to Wychwood brewery in Witney and was offered a free brewery tour for himself and a small group after the General Election by the Sales and Marketing Director! Wetherspoon’s website contained a Leader Board which reported the best real ale as voted for by their customers currently was Wild Weather’s Co-ALE-ition – HowlinGale (aka Howling Ale) which is way out in front with 52 votes received so far. In second place is our least favourite brewery, Wychwood from Witney, who produced those bottles of CO-ALE-ITION for David Cameron in March, with their Hobgoblin ale, which has received just 13 votes so far. Howling has now registered Co-ALE-ition as a trademark so very interesting times lie ahead, Howling has also registered Co-ALE-ition as a business name on the National Business Register so watch this space. Howling was invited onto the BBC Politics Show on 16th April, they sent a car for him and the Lawsons went along as well for moral support. Somehow Howling managed to sneak a couple of bottles of Monster Mash ale through the security checks and he gave them to the presenters Andrew Neil and Jo Coburn on the live show itself. Andrew Neil even read a section from the Monster Mash label and confirmed that the ALE in Co-ALE-ition stood for “Another Loony Experience”. Jo Coburn mentioned copyright as part of a discussion on another subject but Howling was quick to bring up the Cameron Co-ALE-ition issue and the OMRLP’s range of Co-ALE-ition ales to which Jo Coburn remarked “I think we covered that on a previous show” and Howling agreed. Howling went on to introduce the new OMRLP sponsor whose name he had emblazoned on his rosette and then had to explain to Andrew Neil and Jo Coburn that JDW stood for JD Wetherspoon. All in all in less than 5 minutes (see the video on YouTube) excellent free publicity and promotion for the OMRLP, Howling himself, Co-ALE-ition and especially for Monster Mash ale and the Mash brewery. Unfortunately not one cask of Monster Mash was sold by Mash brewery in Feb, March or April after all the publicity and promotion directly resulting from the launch of the Monster Mash record and video and also from the live coverage to millions of people on the BBC Poltics Show. Colin Bex, the Leader of the Wessex Regionalist Party will be standing in Witney again at the 2015 General Election. Colin is a great friend of Howling and the OMRLP and he has attended more Co-ALE-ition events than anybody else apart from Alan, Steve & Joy Lawson and Derrill Carr. The good news is that Colin has agreed to continue on our behalf the Co-ALE-ition battle with David Cameron and Wychwood brewery whilst he is campaigning in Witney. HowlinGale was on sale at the Alexander Bain pub in Wick from 17th April. This Wetherspoons pub is their most Northerly outlet in the whole of the UK and is almost 700 miles by road from the Wild Weather brewery in Silchester. The objective is to have a Co-ALE-ition ale selling in every UK constituency in England, Scotland and Wales. Our early focus and promotions have been on the constituency areas where the OMRLP are fielding candidates in the 2015 General Election or wjere Loony party members live nearby. So far Wetherspoon pubs in Uxbridge & Ruislip (Howling), Doncaster (Flying Brick), Oxford (Mad Hatter), Fleet (Mad Max), Swansea (Baron Barnes), Manchester (Johnny Disco & Lord Cameron), Canterbury (Hairy Knorm), Walsall (Mark Beech), Brighton (Dame Dixon and Adam Gzunder) and Witney (Colin Bex)have all sold or ordered HowlinGale. In addition Wetherspoon pubs in Burgess Hill (Baron Von Thunderclap) and Gloucester (George Ridgeon) will have HowlinGale on sale in early May as will Blackpool (Tony Davies), Matlock and hopefully Louth (Arty Pole) as well. Over 70,000 pints of Co-ALE-ition ale have now been sold and we still remain firmly on track to sell 100,000 pints of Co-ALE-ition in 1000 different pubs by the end of June 2015. This is double the ambitious target of 50,000 pints in 500 pubs which we optimistically set ourselves back in Sept 2013 when we officially launched our very first Co-ALE-ition ale. HowlinGale from Wild Weather brewery is already well out in front on its own as our No 1 selling Co-ALE-ition ale with 27,000 pints sold at the end of April but by the end of June 2015 we confidently expect over 50,000 pints of HowlinGale to have been consumed across the UK in around 700 different pubs. We also expect Wetherspoons to have sold a total of 1000 casks (70,000 pints) of Co-ALE-ition ales in their pubs by the end of June 2015. Both Ascot’s Hope & Glory and Longdog’s Winning Co-ALE-ition have sold 15,000 pints which is a remarkable achievement. However sales of Hog In The Limelight, our new Co-ALE-ition session Bitter from Hogs Back brewery, have been very disappointing so far. It is now 7 weeks after the official launch event and only 10 casks (700 pints) have been sold. Hog In the Limelight has not yet been made available in any pubs in Howling’s local area of Fleet, Farnborough and Aldershot despite there being lots of interest. On reflection we should have called this new ale “Lord Lucan’s Tipple” or “Shergar Special” as no buar around here has ever seen it, never mind tasted it. It is a real shame as the pumpclip is very special and unique and the ale is excellent as well. Latest news is that Hog In The Limelight is unlikely to be available anywhere in the final week of the General Election but we are still hopeful it will be on sale at the Prince Arthur in Fleet for the Loony Party Victory Party on Friday 8th May. At the end of April over 25,000 pints of Wild Weather’s HowlinGale had been sold in just one month (April) to around 300 Wetherspoon pubs across the whole of the UK. As we have taken HowlinGale across the whole of the UK it has been interesting to gauge how well known the OMRLP and especially Howling are in different parts of the country. In Manchester, immediately after HowlinGale appeared in a City Centre pub, there there was an online discussion on the Untappd website asking who was the person on the front of the HowlinGale pumpclip. We all know it was the Howling Laud himself captured in a relaxed, very thoughtful mood but the consensus in Manchester is that it was actually Fred Elliott of Coronation Street fame who immortalised the phase “I say Ashley” on that TV programme. A similar discussion took place in Southampton after HowlinGale appeared in a pub in the Town Centre – the consensus there was that it was Benny Hill which Howling has since said he has been mistaken for before. Perhaps we should now consider doing a video shoot of Howling (Benny Hill style) chasing some young ladies around the gardens of the nearby Elvetham Hotel (1 mile from Fleet) which was the very same venue about 40 to 50 years ago where the original Benny Hill video shoot was filmed. Chinners was a real star on Twitter keeping The Famous Five Co-ALE-ition ales, HowlinGale at Wetherspoons and Hog In The Limelight very well publicised and promoted. In addition Chinners arranged for Tee Shirts to be printed and made available with each of pumpclips of the Famous Five Co-ALE-ition ales printed on the front. As Howling makes his way to Uxbridge HQ, he has three Wetherspoon pubs to choose from in Uxbridge and Ruislip who are all fully committed to selling HowlinGale in the build up to the General Election. Howling is totally focused on a BJ but he will have a TJ to look out for now as well. Howling is ready to move the Co-ALE-ition discussion on with Wychwood brewery, he is going to propose that Wychwood brew Monster Mash ale in bottles and sell it all around the UK and internationally as well. The SNP are apparently interested as well but have said they are struggling to agree even this Co-ALE-ition with Ed Milliband but they expect him to have to agree in the next week or so. Howling will also ask for a change to be made to the Wychwood brewery label on the neck of the Co-ALE-ition bottle i.e. “Brewers of Character” to be replaced with “Brewers of Dodgy Character” Coming soon to your local supermarket – Co-ALE-ition Monster Mash ale in a bottle. Attached above is the Wychwood bottle complete with the Monster Mash label. Alan “Howling Laud” Hope arrived in Uxbridge on Sunday 4th May for his General Election battle with Boris “call me BJ” Johnson who now has a zero hours contract in place as Mayor of London. Howling immediately set up his HQ for the next 5 days at the Good Yarn (Wetherspoon pub) on Uxbridge High Street. Chloe, the Manager of the Good Yarn. had ensured that Howling Ale (aka Wild Weather’s HowlinGale) was available on tap all week to greet our Leader. Howling had his first pint in a Jug and was heard to say “You can call me eccentric if you like but I am still the only Party Leader with an ale named after me” Howling spent Monday on the campaign trail this was “Co-ALE-ition not General Election” visiting seven other Wetherspoon pubs in Western London extolling the virtues of Wild Weather’s HowlinGale. Eureka moment on 3rd May for both Derrill and Howling. Over 50 days after the official launch of our 10th Co-ALE-ition ale on 12th March, they have at last found Hogs Back brewery’s “Hog In The Limelight” on sale in a local pub. The pub was the Tilly Shilling (Wetherspoons) in Farnborough and congratulations to Ben for getting Hog In The Limelight on sale during the week of the General Election. We are still hopeful that Hog In The Limelight will make an appearance at the Prince Arthur in Fleet for the Loony Party Victory Party, to be jointly hosted by Howling and Mad Max on Friday 8th May, but it is touch and go at the moment whether Hog In The Limelight will be on sale even on that special night. Derrill went along to the 2015 Reading Ale Festival on the evening of Friday 1st May as he had been informed that 7 of the Co-ALE-ition breweries were represented at this Ale Festival i.e. Hogs Back, Ascot, Mash, Wild Weather, Longdog, Langham and Milk Street. Being the final week of the 2015 General Election, Derrill was expecting to see an array of Co-ALE-ition ales on sale from the Co-ALE-ition breweries as he thought if you cannot promote Co-ALE-ition ales in General Election week when would you promote them? Derrill was disappointed to discover when he got there that the only Co-ALE-ition ale on sale was “Monsters In The Dark”, not surprisingly from Ascot brewery. Also on sale at the 2015 Reading Ale Festival were Hogs Back HBB (aka Hog In The Limelight) and Ascot’s Single Hop (aka Hope & Glory). Wild Weather’s Howlin’Gale was also available as Black Night which was fine as last year Howlin’Gale was the only Co-ALE-ition ale to appear at the Reading Ale Festival. Alan “Howling Laud” Hope and Max Max Bobetsky are Monster Raving Loony Party 2015 General Election candidates in Uxbridge & Ruislip and North East Hants respectively plus both of them were also candidates in the Hart DC local elections. Mad Max loves the Co-ALE-ition ales and has promoted them in the brochure he produced for his General Election campaign. Mad Max at only 20 years of age, will not only be standing as a General Election candidate for the first time but he will also be voting for the first time as well. On Friday 8th May, he will have another Loony Party record as he will become the youngest person to have drunk 6 different Co-ALE-ition ales in a single session. A Victory Party in their honour is to be held on Friday 8th May at the Prince Arthur in Fleet. Howling and Mad Max will jointly host this event with Howling. Bob Long (Prince Arthur Ale Champion) has ensured that 7 different Co-ALE-ition ales will be on sale that night. Over 200 people have been invited including local MPs, local councillors, brewery owners and CAMRA members from three different branches. Our Leader & Harriet Harman in South Shields So soon after the ‘Eastleigh’ By-election in February, came another in ‘South Shields’ in May. Barely had time to put the white suit away, and it was out on the road again, for us valiant Loonies Nick ‘The Flying Brick’ was well and truly on form again, travelling from Derby up to the ‘North East’ to collect the ten names we need to stand, and did it almost in record time he says. With all the preliminarys taken care of, and a party HQ sorted at ‘The Douglas Vaults Hotel’ the main thrust of our invasion began on Wed 24th April, our leader ‘Howling Laud Hope’ was on hand to appear on TV, Radio and all other media factions, as and when they happened. Nine days of ‘Geordie’ hospitality, what a wonderful bunch of people, but then I should have known, my own parents were from up that way. So a bit rubs of on me I suppose. Nevertheless all the usual rigmarole, fun and games, went as planned, or unplanned, I suppose is a better way of putting it, you never know who your going to meet, or in most cases ‘what will happen next’. Lord Toby Jug and Lady Jezebel Luxury-Yacht arrived three days before the count and added fire to the campaign, although both Toby and I were also standing in our own constuencies for our respective County Councils on the same day. (catch up with that in other reports). We met up once again with one of our admirers ‘Nigel Farrage’ always good to see him,and always has a laugh and a joke, and goes out of his way to tell people of the things that we have achieved since our inauguration. We also had a ‘run in’ with Miss Harriet Ha Ha Harman, the Labour Party Deputy Leader, well running in the same High Street that is, we certainly made ouselves known, outshouting her entourage to the delight of some of the locals. She took it quite well, or tried to make out that she did with a smile on her face, but underneath you could hear her crying ‘Go away, Leave us alone’. Well we did, but not before she knew that we were there! Thurs 2nd May Polling Day, now arrives Mr R.U.Seerius and Lady Hell ‘n’ Back along with our intrepid ‘Flying Brick’ and also ‘Cardinal’ Maximus Bobetsky, all ready and up for the count. The count night always has an auspicious air about it, and this one was of no let down, we came, we saw, we went away with 194 votes. Maybe the loudest cheer when results were read out,and congratulations all round. Trouble was — Ukip stole all our votes, but we shall steal ’em back! Even so with their sudden upsurge we still managed a nice number of votes, more than some other By-elections. Who is losing them, ask yourselves! Still a very low turn-out, just over 25%, do you know, it’s quite obvious that the biggest Political Party isn’t any party that we have ever heard of, its the Non-Voting Party. If all of those voted for us, we would win, the amout of people who said “I dont vote cause I dont trust ’em” was incredible. We in the Loony Party have a new catch phrase If you dont usually vote, then vote unusually, VOTE LOONY** I would like to thank Stuart and his staff in ‘The Vaults’ for their hospitality, Paul Kelly of the South Shields Gazette for his friendliness and coverage, all the people who voted for us, and all those who didn’t, just for being there.

Which golfer won the 2013 US Master after a playoff?	UKIP UKIP Author Topic: UKIP (Read 16327 times) 0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic. « Reply #30 on: April 27, 2013, 09: AM » Dear Friends and Supporters, The latest opinion poll on attitudes towards the EU shows that weï¿½re not the only ones who are angry at the European Union. According to the Eurobarometer poll, 69% of the Great British Public are dissatisfied with the EU and in Spain that number rises to 72%. Can you blame them? The Euro has been a disaster and unemployment is at a critical level. I am quoted in this morningï¿½s Daily Express saying that our In/Out referendum canï¿½t come soon enough. The contagion will soon reach the UK, especially as weï¿½re due to pay ï¿½6.2bn to get even more poor countries into the Euro! This week the government failed in its bid to deport Abu Qatada to Jordan. This is frankly disgraceful. The European Convention on Human Rights, of which the EU is now a member, binds the government. The simple fact is while weï¿½re in the EU and ECHR, Qatada stays. It shows where the governmentï¿½s priorities lie. The only way to deport Qatada ï¿½ and the slew of other foreign criminals and terrorists ï¿½ is to Get Britain Out of both the ECHR and the EU. As each day goes by, we are closer to being forced to open up our borders even more to jobless Bulgarians and Romanians. The BBC tried to skew the debate with a poll on Newsnight this week. Trying to belittle our concerns about the wave of immigration to come, they said only a few per cent would arrive. This translates into 50,000 a year, which could be an underestimate! Romania and Bulgaria could be the tip of the iceberg, however. Last week the EU formally proposed Serbia's accession to the EU. This is yet another poor Eastern European nation, of over 7 million people, who have masses to gain from EU membership and little to give and if we don't get out of the EU quickly, our contributions to EU coffers will increase and more jobs will be taken from the British people. Give it a few years and weï¿½ll be talking about the next wave. Even this afternoon news has broken that Brussels wants to make it easier for EU migrants to move to Britain. As the article discloses, "new Brussels proposals today defy British protests over benefit tourism and abuse of European free movement rules by making it easier for migrants to move to Britain including 'redress against any breach of rights'". The UK could sink under this tsunami! Of course, a fact we all know, the only way regain control of our borders is to Get Britain Out of the EU ï¿½ as soon as possible. Thank you all for your continued support, please do pass these emails onto your friends and family and encourage them to sign up to receive our bulletins. Best wishes, Tim Aker Campaign Director P.S. We have been overwhelmed with orders for our Immigration, Jobs and the EU leaflet and have had to get some more printed. If you would like some to pass on to as many people as possible, please reply to this email. You can download a version of our leaflet here. P.P.S. If you like our work and are able to contribute to our fighting fund, then please donate here. Every penny counts and itï¿½s a penny the EU canï¿½t get its hands on! Thank you. Logged Re: UKIP « Reply #31 on: April 30, 2013, 06: PM » You will no doubt have noticed that over the last few days, the UK Independence Party has been under considerable attack from the Conservatives (and others). It appears that they have spent time, money and resources to go through the entire list of UKIP candidates across the country and investigate them, including comments on Facebook and Twitter going back up to 5 years. This seems to be unprecedented, and indeed we strongly suspect that they are vetting our candidates far more strongly than they vetted their own! It may be that there are a small number of cases where the Party needs to take action, where a candidateï¿½s declaration form failed to inform us of aspects of their past. But for the most part, itï¿½s worth noting that after coming under intense scrutiny there have been problems with just 0.3% of our candidates. Itï¿½s possible to point out that Labour, Lib Dems and Conservatives have each had far greater problems recently with candidates. A Lib Dem councillor for instance has been remanded in custody accused of planting a home-made bomb under a car (a total of 14 cars having been attacked in the neighbourhood). Yet of course, it is UKIP that seems to have made front-page news! UKIP Deputy Leader Paul Nuttall MEP has pointed out that Council candidates are not like MPs or MEPs; they are hard-working people seeking to represent their local communities. UKIP Leader Nigel Farage MEP and Party Chairman Steve Crowther have also pointed out that the campaign against us shows that weï¿½re now ï¿½playing with the big boysï¿½ of politics, and can expect such tactics. Either way, we certainly have them rattled. With reference to the story in the Daily Mirror today, the Party Chairman has released the following statement: "We understand that Mr Wood contacted the police some days ago to report that his Facebook page had been hacked and taken over. We have suspended his candidacy pending the outcome of that investigation." With the County Council elections under 48 hours away, what impact has this onslaught had on the opinion polls? Is UKIP support suddenly slipping? Far from it ï¿½ YouGov today puts us on 14% of the vote (beating our previous record of 13% with YouGov). We must hold our nerve, and our candidates must of course remember for the next couple of days that they are in the public eye when making any comments on social media. Then, we can look forward to some fantastic results on Thursday night (and Friday). Reports from South Shields suggest another amazing result for UKIP is likely in the Parliamentary by-election. It has proved to be almost impossible to find any Conservative or Liberal Democrat voters in the constituency, which appears now to be a straight fight between Labour and UKIP. Labour has only been under 50% of the vote once in South Shields since 1935, so it would be a tough ask to gain our first MP. But we certainly anticipate making a few waves once again with a huge UKIP vote. Help with reporting results One of the big differences with the 2012 Council election results was that we were much more efficient in collecting and analysing the results of votes as they came in. We were able to state in public in real time how we were doing across the country, and this played a significant part in ensuring that the media coverage reflected the many successes that we had. This year, the task of tracking 1,800 candidates (the 1,727 widely reported plus 11 in Wales and 61 Council by-election candidates) is a huge one. Therefore, we are seeking volunteers to assist. Please let me (Jonathan Arnott) know if you are able to help by replying to this forum newsletter including your name, email address and telephone number. Volunteers will need to be able to: 1. Answer the phone to candidates and record them on a spreadsheet provided. 2. Use the internet (eg. Council websites, newspaper websites, Twitter) to find results where they have not been phoned in to you. 3. Be available EITHER from 11pm to 3am on Thursday night, OR from 11am to 5pm on Friday during the day. 4. Email an updated version of the spreadsheet every 30-45 minutes so that it can be compiled into the national results. Please state clearly whether youï¿½re able to help on Thursday night or Friday morning in your email. We do have some people already so if you offer to help and donï¿½t hear anything back, it will mean that we already have more than enough volunteers by that point. We need in total 5 volunteers for the Thursday night, and 12 for the Friday. UKIP councillor David Potts dies The sad news from South Tyneside is that UKIP councillor David Potts has died, at the age of just 30. He died with his family at his side at his home following a long battle with alcohol. David was a colourful character who made an impression on everyone he met, and will be remembered as a councillor who really cared about the people he represented. For more information please see this report in the local newspaper: http://www.journallive.co.uk/north-east-news/todays-news/2013/04/30/tributes-paid-after-south-tyneside-councillor-david-potts-dies-aged-30-61634-33257184/ . Report on April NEC meeting Present: Paul Nuttall MEP, Deputy Leader (PN) George Curtis (GC), Sebastian Fairweather (SF), Gerard Batten MEP (GB), Neil Hamilton (NH), Michael McGough (MM), David Coburn (DC), Chris Pain (CP), Piers Wauchope (PW), Steven Woolfe (SWo), Douglas Denny (DD), Stuart Agnew MEP (SA), Louise Bours (LB), Gerard Batten MEP (GB) (from 1.17pm). Also present: Pete Reeve, Nominating Officer (PR), Stuart Wheeler, Party Treasurer (SW), Will Gilpin, Chief Executive (WG) (from 1.14pm), Lisa Duffy, Party Director (LD), Jonathan Arnott, General Secretary (JA). Apologies for absence were received from Nigel Farage MEP, Party Leader (NF), Steve Crowther (SC), Alan Bown (AB), Hugh Williams (HW), Michael Greaves, Party Secretary (MG). In the absence of the Party Chairman and Party Leader, the NEC voted unanimously that PN should chair this meeting. The minutes of the previous meeting were approved, subject to one typographical amendment. There were no matters arising. The appointment for a political strategist for the 2014 European elections was discussed, and a candidate for the job was invited to present. No vote was taken regarding the appointment, a final decision being deferred. The Spring Conference made a profit and was a fantastic event. The billboard campaign is in full swing with billboards appearing all around the country. Some NEC members wondered how sites were chosen; we took those which were available at the time of booking. For elections in rural areas, the NEC was reminded of the usefulness of boards in farmers' fields. The 'Common Sense' tour is gaining huge press coverage and has been a success with huge audiences across the country. NF has been visiting paces all over the country meeting people from all walks of life. The NEC approved the principle of a 'Society of UKIP Lawyers', and this will be done through Steven Woolfe. The NEC approved the formation of branches in Sevenoaks, Preston, Fylde, Ealing, Hackney & Islington, Tower Hamlets, Southwark, Kensington & Chelsea and the splitting of Redbridge & Waltham Forest branch. The Treasurer's report naturally showed that the Party's finances have worsened since last month, due to the billboard campaign and Parliamentary by-election expenditure. Nevertheless, the position remains far better than previously, over the long term. The NEC provisionally approved the annual accounts of the Party, subject to minor amendments and audit. The NEC also allowed an additional few days for candidates to apply for Portsmouth South [since closed but already reported in a previous forum newsletter], owing to the by-election having not been called as expected. It was reported that that we will have roughly 1,700 Council election candidates and even the Telegraph is reporting us having an impact in the upcoming local elections. Next year, it is the aim to win hundreds of seats on the back of the Euro elections but this year the aim is to have a large number of second places, which is on-plan for this stage of the electoral cycle. We have 32 Parliamentary candidates adopted, with a further 164 approved. We are asking for anyone interested in standing for the European Parliament to ensure that they get onto the Approved List as soon as possible. The 'From Adoption to Assessmentï¿½ sheet has been sent out to branches to help assist members getting on the approved list. Stuart Agnew gave a presentation on a proposed policy on Bovine TB, which was accepted by the NEC but is not intended to form a major plank of the Party's campaigning. The meeting ended at 5.25pm. Best wishes, Re: UKIP « Reply #32 on: May 03, 2013, 08: AM » Iï¿½m writing this overnight, as the South Shields result has come in and the Council by-election results continue to come through. Some Councils are counting tonight, but most will count tomorrow. The figures that I give will be correct at the time of writing, but of course everything will change over the course of the next 12-18 hours as results are declared. There is no need for ï¿½spinï¿½: the facts simply speak for themselves. We are doing better than all the predictions, in terms of our national share of the vote. We are winning County Council seats in large numbers, and we are falling just short of winning many more. A huge ï¿½thank youï¿½ to everyone who has been working so hard on compiling the results. South Shields by-election result Before the by-election result was announced, UKIP Deputy Leader Paul Nuttall MEP was quoted as saying: ï¿½Anything over 20% will be an absolutely fantastic result considering we had no branch here and had a standing start. The message to the Coalition is you are losing the argument. If I was a Tory MP in a marginal constituency I would be worried. If I was a Labour MP in a marginal I would be worried too. We are not just taking votes from Conservatives. This is the fourth by-election on the trot in the North where Ukip has finished second.ï¿½ Well, UKIP certainly did take more than 20% of the vote, with UKIPï¿½s Richard Elvin claiming 24.5% - meanwhile, the Liberal Democrats lost their deposit, taking only just over 1% of the vote. The full result is as follows, on a 39.28% turnout: Labour - 12,493 Ahmed Khan, Independent candidate - 1,311 Phil Brown, Independent Socialist Party - 750 Lady Dorothy MacBeth Brookes, BNP - 711 Hugh Annand, Lib Dems ï¿½ 352 Howling Laud Hope, Monster Raving Loony Party - 197 Thomas Darwood, Independent candidate - 57 Facts and figures so far from the County Councils At the time of writing, UKIP has taken 43 seats already. Not even a quarter of all results have yet been declared (I have the results for just 373), yet we have already surpassed the prediction of political pundits that we would take 40 in total! UKIP has taken a staggering 16 seats on Lincolnshire County Council. With just a few seats left to declare, it is almost certain that we have denied the Conservatives an overall majority on that Council and we will no doubt become the ï¿½official oppositionï¿½. Elsewhere, Hampshire saw UKIP take 10 seats. In Essex, UKIP took 9 seats ï¿½ tied with the Lib Dems and Labour. Other wins included a District Council by-election, and seats in Surrey, Dorset and Gloucestershire. Where UKIP and Labour both stood, we have outpolled them ï¿½ taking 3 votes to every 2 that Labour take on average. Interestingly, that 3:2 ratio also holds where UKIP and the Liberal Democrats both stand. Where we are standing, we are taking an average of 26.2% of the vote. I can now predict with confidence that we will take more than 1 million votes ï¿½ more than we took at the entire General Election in 2010! Itï¿½s likely that we might even reach 1.5 million. Where we stood in 2009 and 2013, our vote has gone up by 14.5% on average so far. And in addition to the 43 seats that we have won, we have another 200 second-place finishes. It only remains for me to thank every hard-working activist from across the country who has made this result possible. Best wishes, Re: UKIP « Reply #35 on: May 15, 2013, 08: AM » UKIPï¿½s support continues to rise, both in terms of voters and membership. I am informed by Head Office that our membership is now at a record high, and continuing to rise at a phenomenal rate. But the real surprise was ICMï¿½s May poll for the Guardian newspaper, which has UKIP on a record 18% of the vote. Regular readers will recall that UKIP tends to get lower shares of the vote in telephone polls and with ICM in particular. For the UKIP vote share to rise with ICM from 9% to 18% in a single month is the biggest movement in public opinion to any party for a very long time. An article for website politics.co.uk points out that Labour, Conservatives and Liberal Democrats are all down sharply ï¿½ and that UKIPï¿½s surge in support appears to come as much from Labour as it does from the Conservatives. Another poll, in the Sun, suggests that some Conservative MPs stand to lose their seats to UKIP at the General Election. UKIP Leader Nigel Farage MEP commented: ï¿½Last weekï¿½s local elections proved we are capable of winning a large number of seats. This study shows we could be a force at every level.ï¿½ To see the full article please go to http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/politics/4924195/UKIP-to-win-8-Tory-seats-at-the-next-General-Election-in-2015.html .

Nomination packs must be requested by May 31. Four more councillors join UKIP since election Since the County Council elections less than a fortnight ago, UKIP have gained four council seats through defections ï¿½ one on Thanet District Council in Kent, one on Allerdale Borough Council in Cumbria, one on Stocksbridge Town Council in South Yorkshire (over the proposed closure of Stocksbridge Leisure Centre) and one on Ramsgate Town Council in Kent. I am told that the total number of UKIP councillors (above Parish/Town Council level) has now passed 200, and the total including Parish and Town Councils is well over 300. Welcome to all of the new UKIP councillors! Petition for UKIP to be included in televised debates I have already circulated this petition previously, which calls for UKIP to be included in the televised debates for the 2015 General Election. But as it seems to be ï¿½doing the roundsï¿½ again, and we have had hundreds of new forum members since I last plugged it, I thought it seemed reasonable to send it out again.

Please contact Liam directly at [email protected] . Nigel Farage reacts to Cameron ï¿½promiseï¿½ over referendum After David Cameron produced the draft Bill for a referendum on the European Union, planned for 2017, UKIP Leader Nigel Farage MEP has responded: "This promise does not have the weight of law because no parliament can bind its successor. The EU referendum bill is 490 words long with the Scottish Independence Referendum bill is over 62 thousand words. Itï¿½s evident, this bill was scrawled up on the back of an envelope in a few hours, and it is meaningless. Cameron has promised to campaign to stay in the EU come what may. He has also made un-kept promises before. No-one believes him now. This bill is the last desperate play on a man in a panic. Sadly for, he has now come onto UKIP turf, and on this issue, UKIP will surely win." South East Regional Conference The UKIP South East regional conference will take place on June 8th from 9am to 4pm. Nigel Farage will of course be amongst the list of speakers. The venue will be the Lakeside Country Club, Frimley Green. Tickets are available, priced at ï¿½20, from Ray Finch, The Old Grain Store, Church Lane, Lyminster, West Sussex, BN17 7QJ. Special deals have been arranged with the Lakeside hotel, contactable on 01252 838000 and discounted rates can be obtained by quoting the booking reference UKIP001. You can also buy tickets online from the UKIP website here. And finallyï¿½. Chris Huhne has been released just 8 weeks into an 8-month prison sentence for perverting the course of justice. Itï¿½s often said that ï¿½a week is a long time in politicsï¿½. In this case it appears that a week for politicians is the equivalent of exactly a month! Best wishes, Re: UKIP « Reply #36 on: May 17, 2013, 09: AM » A few years ago, the standard political slur against UKIP was to accuse us of somehow being ï¿½racistï¿½ or ï¿½BNP lightï¿½. Nothing could ever have been further from the truth but it appeared time after time in the press. When UKIP was mentioned in any other context, we were often considered by the media to be a Party of eccentrics. More recently, we have seen the idea that UKIP is ï¿½a party of ex-Conservativesï¿½ and a direct threat to the Conservative Party only. Tonight, we have once again proven that UKIP does not just take votes from the Conservatives. In many working-class areas, UKIP is becoming the alternative to the Labour Party and we do take Labour votes. In Rotherham, in a ward which we didnï¿½t even contest last time out in 2012, we have just taken a Council seat from Labour on 46.5% of the vote. Full details to follow later in this newsletter. The various slurs by our opponents prove only that they donï¿½t know how to deal with us ï¿½ and why should they? UKIPï¿½s greatest strength is that our members and activists get involved because we believe in the Party and what it stands for. The old parties may have centuries of tradition, but they lack the passion that is so evident in UKIP. We are not here to play political games, or to change our beliefs from week to week based upon what a focus group might say. At some point our opponents will run out of insults and they will have to engage in a debate which they will no doubt lose. The other big news of the day is what happened to Nigel Farage on his visit to Scotland. Again, Iï¿½ll take a look at the Scottish Parliament by-election later in this newsletter. Earlier, Nigel Farage was accosted by a group of protesters shouting such words as ï¿½Go home!ï¿½, ï¿½Leave Scotland, go back to Englandï¿½ and ï¿½You can stick your Union Jack up your ***ï¿½. This kind of racist behaviour is of course highly unpleasant, but the protestors bizarrely described themselves as ï¿½anti-racistsï¿½ in an ironic twist. Security officials sealed Nigel Farage in a pub, and he later left in a police riot van. Nigel Farage described the protest on LBC radio as follows: "If this is the face of Scottish Nationalism it's a pretty ugly picture. "This was dressed up as anti racism protest but it was a pure anti-English thing. I'm accused of being a racist, but it's ok to hate the English. If the police hadn't been there it could have turned very nasty." UKIP candidate selected for Scottish Parliament by-election The candidate for the Aberdeen Donside Scottish Parliamentary by-election has been announced as Otto Inglis. Regarding the incident with Nigel Farage, he said to the Journal online newspaper: "In UKIP we believe in freedom of speech and open debate. We don't believe in shouting people down unlike those mindless people who turned up this afternoon...we're happy to engage with them in debate, but shouting people down is against human rights." Otto Inglis is a barrister who owns his own business. He has stood for the Party previously at the General Election in the Dunfermline & West Fife constituency and for the Lothians constituency list in 2011. The UKIP National Executive Committee have voted to provide central assistance to the campaign, which promises to be the biggest that the Party has ever run in Scotland. UKIP gains Council by-election seat in Rawmarsh, Rotherham UKIPï¿½s Caven Vines has just been elected to Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council on an impressive 46.5% of the vote, narrowly beating the Labour Party. Conservatives, BNP, Trade Unionists and the Liberal Democrats all stood, but each got less than 5% of the vote ï¿½ proving that in many Northern areas, UKIP is now the only real alternative to Labour. The result in full: Caven Vines ï¿½ UKIP ï¿½ 1143 Labour - 1039 TUSC ï¿½ 60 Lib Dems ï¿½ 28 One interesting feature which those from outside the area might not immediately notice is that the Rawmarsh ward is not part of the Rotherham constituency where we put in such a huge effort at the Parliamentary by-election. It is in fact in the neighbouring constituency of Wentworth and Dearne. Our opponents therefore cannot claim that this incredible result was purely down to the massive effort that went into the Rotherham Parliamentary seat in November. In UKIP we often talk about the European elections in 2014, but in Rotherham the 2014 Council elections could see significant UKIP gains ï¿½ both in Rotherham and in Wentworth & Dearne. Meanwhile, Neil Boxall took 20.3% of the vote in a County Council election in Somerset tonight. The poll had been delayed by two weeks following the death of the original UKIP candidate. Nigel Farage most popular Party Leader Another opinion poll has shown that Nigel Farage is the Party Leader doing the best job. Nigel Farageï¿½s ratings have improved by 3% since last month, with 40% believing that he is doing a good job compared with just 29% who believe that he is doing a poor job. His net rating of +11% is far better than any other Party Leader. Ed Miliband is at -14%, David Cameron at -21% and Nick Clegg at -37%. The figures come from the latest IPSOS-Mori Leader ratings. On the standard voting intention question UKIP was on 13% of the vote (a very good result for a phone poll) whist the Conservatives are now just 3% behind Labour. It remains to be seen whether there is a sustained Conservative recovery, or whether this is a ï¿½rogue pollï¿½. Labourï¿½s lead has fallen back over the last couple of months, but no other poll has shown the gap closing quite so much. Nadine Dorries Conservative MP Nadine Dorries has stated that she would like to run as a joint Conservative/UKIP candidate at the next General Election. This is of course very different from the 2010 General Election, when UKIP dropped out of standing in various seats against both Conservatives and Labour where opponents had strong anti-EU credentials. This suggestion presents an interesting dilemma for UKIP. UKIP Leader Nigel Farage said: ï¿½If Nadine Dorriesï¿½ association come to me and say theyï¿½ve passed a resolution, and they want her to run as a joint candidate in 2015, I will go and ask my local association how they feel but my inclination would be, why not? What on earth is wrong with doing this? I would also say this could apply to other Tories too. It may even apply to one or two of the old Labour types as well. ï¿½This article [in The Spectator] about Nadine, possibly talking about a joint ticket, is something that several more MPs may choose. Then of course, that will present quite a big challenge to Downing Street and David Cameron. Will be he prepared to accept this or not?ï¿½ And finallyï¿½. Former Defence Secretary Dr. Liam Fox has suggested that UKIP could take the Lib Demsï¿½ place in the televised Party Leader debates at the next General Election. He apparently said to the ï¿½In Houseï¿½ Parliamentary magazine about the potential for UKIP inclusion "That's a decision that's got to be taken much closer... but they have no Members of Parliament, so what do you do? Do you have an ICM threshold? In which case, at the moment you would probably have Labour, Conservative and UKIP." This comment will not exactly endear him to his coalition partnersï¿½ Best wishes, Re: UKIP « Reply #37 on: May 25, 2013, 11: AM » One of UKIPï¿½s policies in local government has been to scrap the Cabinet system, which centralises power in the hands of Party elites and a small number of councillors. We have always operated on the basis that local government is about serving the community, not Party political gain. The real excitement of UKIPï¿½s breakthrough at the 2014 County Council elections is that, despite not having taken control of any Councils outright, we are now in a position to influence and to put our policies into practice. In Cambridgeshire and Norfolk, councils have been pushed to ï¿½no overall controlï¿½ for the first time in decades. Norfolk chose to depose the Conservative regime, whilst Cambridgeshire voted to sustain it. But the remarkable success lies in UKIP convincing both of those Councils to vote to abolish the Cabinet system and put power back in the hands of local councillors. The next step is of course for UKIP councillors to show that such power is used to stand up for the interests of the people who elected them. Meanwhile in Cornwall, UKIPï¿½s only councillor on Torbay District Council has just been elected as Chairman of the Council. Cllr. Julien Parrot said "I am delighted to have received this recognition by Torbay Council. The Mayor wanted the Bay to be inclusive and I always had an ambition to chair a full council meeting. The Ellacombe ward has been ahead of the curve since 2011 and it's marvellous for UKIP to have one of its candidates elected as chairman. You could describe me as a poacher turned gamekeeper. In the past I've been known to stretch boundaries in council meetings. But now I'm interested in speaking about and promoting all things good in Torbay as well as children's services." Most of what UKIP stands for can be summed up in three words: Freedom, Independence and Democracy. These key principles dictate our desire to withdraw from the European Union and govern ourselves once more, but they also give us a clear vision for what our local councillors should be doing: helping to bring power back to the people. These are exciting times for the Party, and Norfolk and Cambridgeshire representatives are certainly playing their part. Labour councillor defects to UKIP UKIP welcomes councillor Jane Bramley, who has joined UKIP from the Labour Party. She described the Labour whip as being ï¿½the final straw that broke the camelï¿½s backï¿½ over her dissatisfaction with the Labour Party. She was quoted as saying "You could have your own opinion but when push comes to shove you have to vote as dictated. I've had enough of that. I want to represent my constituents in their best interests and not just as laid down by the Whip. "I have not made this decision lightly but having studied UKIP's policies I know I am making the right choice." The move adds a third councillor to the UKIP group on North East Lincolnshire Council ï¿½ just one behind the Liberal Democrats. City firms to switch to UKIP? The Telegraph reports that a number of City donors who previously supported the Conservatives are now in talks with UKIP. This news certainly gives the lie to the claims often made by the pro-EU lobby that the City needs EU membership. With the spectre of the Financial Transaction Tax - which could decimate the City - looming, in fact the interests of those who wish London to remain a world-leading financial centre are best served by UKIP. UKIP Leader Nigel Farage MEP was quoted as saying ï¿½There is a growing feeling that we should be regulating our own country, with the view that we should be a global, not a European, financial centre. It has gone beyond disillusionment. People are wondering what the point of the Conservative party is, now they have handed over all their power to Brussels.ï¿½ If you would like to read the full article please go to http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/10079115/City-firms-switching-from-Tories-to-UKIP-says-Nigel-Farage.html . MEPs standing for re-election UKIP Chairman Steve Crowther asked the sitting MEPs to declare whether they were entering the selection process by this Wednesday, to help other members who might not want to stand against a sitting MEP to decide whether to enter. Those so declaring are Stuart Agnew, Gerard Batten, Godfrey Bloom, William Dartmouth, Nigel Farage, Roger Helmer, Mike Nattrass, Paul Nuttall. Steve expresses his thanks to all the MEPs for making their positions clear.

Corrections to recent newsletters The heading entitled ï¿½Woolwich Statement: UKIP Killingï¿½ should of course have read ï¿½Woolwich Killing: UKIP Statementï¿½. Rob Burberry will not now be speaking at the event advertised in the previous newsletter due to his commitments to the South East Regional Conference on 8th June. The candidate in the delayed poll in Coker, Somerset was Evelyn Boxall, not Neil Boxall. And finallyï¿½ The European Union has now backed down on their plan to ban refillable olive oil containers from restaurants. UKIP Leader Nigel Farage MEP described the plan on Twitter as ï¿½virgin on the ridiculousï¿½. Best wishes, Re: UKIP « Reply #38 on: June 10, 2013, 03: PM » In a previous forum newsletter, I informed UKIP members of Paul Nuttallï¿½s appearance on Channel 4ï¿½s Political Slot. This was aimed at driving Labour voters in working-class communities to UKIP, and can now be seen at . A few weeks ago, an opinion poll came out which claimed that when UKIP gets over 16% of the vote, new UKIP voters are more likely to come from Labour than the Conservatives. I would always caution against reading too much into a single opinion poll, but other research ï¿½ not to mention results at elections in areas such as Rotherham - does show at least the potential for UKIP to take substantial numbers of Labour votes. The big news over the last week is the defection of three independent (former Labour) councillors to UKIP in South Tyneside, leaving UKIP as the official opposition on that Council. This follows the defection of a Labour councillor in Northamptonshire a week ago. Councillor Beverley Mennell said ï¿½I have been unhappy with the situation within the Labour group for several months now and I know several of my former colleagues have also expressed similar concerns. UKIP now has more than 600 members in Northampton and that is growing all the time and the party performed well, taking three seats in the recent county council elections. I believe UKIP will stand up for local peopleï¿½s concerns in Northampton in two years and I am confident they will get behind UKIP and we will win more seats.ï¿½ More information on the three defections in South Tyneside will come later in this newsletter, but it is encouraging to see so many ex-Labour Councillors joining the Party. Internally, the final application forms for the MEP selection process are now coming in. All applicants had to send off for an application pack by 31st May, and had 10 days from the date of receipt of the pack to submit it. Therefore, the final applications will arrive no later than tomorrow (10th June) and the Party will then have a complete list of applicants. UKIP in Northern Ireland I attended the UKIP Northern Ireland AGM in Belfast on Thursday night. The Partyï¿½s support in Northern Ireland is increasing quickly. As well as myself, the speakers were David McNarry MLA and Paul Nuttall MEP with Cllr. Henry Reilly as the Chairman. The first surprise of the night was the sheer number of people who turned up: a venue with space for 70 members had been booked, and the start of the meeting had to be delayed so that a couple of dozen extra seats could be brought in. By the start of the meeting, almost 100 members were in attendance. David McNarryï¿½s intellect and deep understanding of politics was impressive. He inspired confidence in UKIPï¿½s potential in Northern Ireland, with the Party planning to field a candidate at the European elections in 2014 for the first time. Previously, UKIP has had Henry Reilly elected to the Newry & Mourne Council. Paul Nuttallï¿½s speech was easily the most impressive that I have ever heard him give: full of passion and commitment. He well deserved the standing ovation that he received at the end of his speech. UKIP now the official opposition on South Tyneside Council Three former Labour councillors on South Tyneside Council (the area covering South Shields, where UKIP finished a strong second in the recent Parliamentary by-election) have just joined UKIP, leaving the Party as the official opposition on that Council. UKIP Leader Nigel Farage MEP said ï¿½ï¿½I am delighted to welcome George, Steve and Linda to the party. ï¿½They have a wealth of experience gained while serving their community as independent councillors which can only add to the strength of UKIP.ï¿½ UKIP South East Conference a huge success The UKIP South East Conference on Saturday at the prestigious Lakeside venue was a huge success. The good news is that all of the speeches are available for you to watch again online, so there is no need for me to go into too much detail other than to praise the superb overall quality of the speeches. Links to all of the speeches can be found on the Party website at http://www.ukip.org/index.php/newsroom/news/670-se-conference-programme .

UKIP councillor Tony Baker dies The newly-elected UKIP councillor Tony Baker, who was elected to Worcestershire County Council in May, has died suddenly at the age of 69. UKIP Leader Nigel Farage MEP said ï¿½I offer my sincerest condolences to Tonyï¿½s family and friends. It was only a few short weeks ago when I saw him last and he was so very obviously looking forward to the job of representing the people of St Maryï¿½s. It is a great loss to the town and to UKIP.ï¿½ Leading the tributes locally was Parliamentary candidate Michael Wrench: "It is with great sadness members of the Wyre Forest UKIP branch try to come to terms with the sudden and unexpected death of our dear friend and colleague councillor Tony Baker. As one of the founder members, Tony was a staunch stalwart of the branch and a driving force behind the partyï¿½s recent electoral success. He embraced his role as a newly elected county councillor with enthusiasm and immense pride. He will be sadly missed and Kidderminster will be the poorer for his passing, our sympathy and thoughts are extended to his family and friends at this difficult time.ï¿½ And finallyï¿½ Thanks to Chris Adams for pointing out this interesting site, with a map of all the County Council election results 2013 ï¿½ you can see the results everywhere across the country: http://boundaryassistant.org/elections/local/localelections2013.htm . Best wishes, Re: UKIP « Reply #39 on: July 13, 2013, 06: PM » Iï¿½m writing this newsletter mainly to confirm to members that at around 2.30pm this afternoon, UKIPï¿½s membership reached 30,000 for the first time. At a time when other partiesï¿½ memberships are declining, ours has continued to rise. I look forward to further increase in the coming months ï¿½ although the pace of membership increase tends to be slower over the summer. But with Alan Bown having produced almost a million new recruitment leaflets for branches to deliver, hopefully we will see continued growth in the next few months. UKIP to oppose MP pay rise Nigel Farage has condemned the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority proposal to increase MPs' pay pointing out that their own poll revealed more than two thirds of MPs thought they were underpaid. ï¿½Given that Westminster has given 75% of law making to Brussels then surely MPs should be subject to a 75% cut. That would be my suggestion," Mr Farage said. ï¿½But also letï¿½s not buy into this concept that IPSA have plucked these figures from out of the blue. Their anonymous survey of MPs showed that they all wanted a big salary increase. ï¿½For the other Party leaders and their MPs to throw their hands up in horror and suggest they had nothing to do with this decision, is frankly ridiculous. Back in January YouGov conducted a survey on behalf of IPSA in which MPs suggested they deserved a 32% pay rise. Itï¿½s arrogance of the highest order, that while deciding on public sector freezes and cuts or minimal one per cent pay increases, 69% of MPs think that they, on the other hand, are underpaid and should be getting a ï¿½86,000 salary. A fifth of them think they deserve something approaching a six-figure salary, especially Conservative MPs. It just goes to show how conditioned they are to say one thing to the public while behind closed doors they are pushing for something completely different; in this case, trying to line their pockets.ï¿½ Paul Nuttall takes EU to task over Royal Mail privatisation The UK Government will be helpless to prevent huge job losses and a looming pensions disaster when the Royal Mail is privatised, due to EU regulation. Paul Nuttall MEP, UKIP Deputy Leader points out that Westminster will be hamstrung by the same EU regulations that forced it into privatisation. ï¿½It was of course three successive EU Postal Services Directives that created this mess, and under the same law the Government will be banned from giving the Royal Mail any state aid if it catastrophically fails. The Postal Services Directive made it clear that the market for mail delivery had to be opened up to competition. As a result, the more profitable services such as business mail were forced to compete with cheaper foreign competitors while Royal Mail was lumbered with the costly hand-delivery and sorting processes. On top of that, as life has moved progressively online we are sending fewer and fewer letters. The Royal Mail was doomed. ï¿½Now the final nail is in the coffin and the Royal Mail will become fully privatised, itï¿½s going to really struggle to compete in the market place. In order to survive there will have to be closures. There will have to be job losses. These employeesï¿½ shares that are being championed by the Prime Minister will be completely and utterly worthless. But under EU state aid rules the UK Government will be strictly forbidden from helping the Royal Mail with taxpayersï¿½ money. It will also be forbidden to help plug the ï¿½9 billion pension pot deficit. We will be left with a completely destroyed Royal Mail, once a proud British institution that did so much more than just deliver letters. We can thank the EU for that, and we can also thank the EU when Westminster finally wakes up and realises thereï¿½s a disaster in the post.ï¿½ Nigel Farage Belfast speech Nigel Farageï¿½s speech in Belfast earlier this week was recorded and is now available to view on UKIP. The full speech can be seen online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHvm4o2Kprg&feature=youtu.be . Head Office email addresses Rod Peers at Head Office has introduced a new system for emails to Head Office: ï¿½To enable us to focus the Head Office operation, and avoid the build-up of e-mails that happened earlier in the year, we have introduced two new e-mail addresses. I'm sure you are all aware that we had well over 1000 emails in the [email protected] inbox earlier in the year and lots of important UKIP business e-mails were delayed as a result of this. To avoid a recurrence we have implemented a new e-mail system. These are as follows: [email protected] is to be used for changes to members details, addresses, e-mails etc, and for new members joining at the Branch level. [email protected] is to be used purely for changes to branch officers and for information regarding new branches. Missing link In the last forum newsletter, a link to an IPPR report seems to have not gone through properly. The link is http://www.ippr.org/press-releases/111/11004/euroscepticism-in-england-is-english-not-british- - hopefully it will work this time. Council by-election results This weekï¿½s Council by-election results were mixed. Hanover ward in Brighton (a Green-held seat) was always going to be difficult for us as it looked so close. But the Party still managed to take 7%, with the results as follows: Lab 1396 Green 1358 Con 275 UKIP 250 (7%) TUSC 172 Lib Dem 56. A Council by-election in Lincolnshire for Sleaford Holdingham saw UKIP take 12.9% of the vote on a tiny turnout in a ward with a tradition of electing independent candidates: Sleaford Holdingham: Independent 140, Labour 79, Independent 57, UKIP 48 (12.9%), Conservatives 48. There was also a Town Council by-election to Andover Town Council. An independent candidate (supported by the Conservatives) took 560 votes whilst the UKIP candidate Maurice Cleary took 337 (37.6%). Best wishes, Re: UKIP « Reply #40 on: July 13, 2013, 07: PM » UKIP Deputy Leader Paul Nuttall MEP will be on Any Questions this Friday from Keswick ï¿½ please tune in to Radio 4 at 8pm if you want to listen to him. Over this week, the MEPs will be out in Strasbourg so you might want to look out for some good speeches online! In June, we narrowly missed out on reaching the ï¿½magicï¿½ 30,000 mark for membership. The Head Office system sees old memberships drop off on the first day of each month, but the ï¿½low pointï¿½ for July is still over 29,700. I am quite optimistic that we will hit 30,000 in July. Can I please, politely, request that readers donï¿½t claim that membership has passed 30,000 until it actually does? When it happens Iï¿½ll inform you as soon as I can. Nigel Farage mosque visit UKIP Leader Nigel Farage took part in the Ghousia Mosque open day in Armley, Leeds on Sunday. The open day was put on as part of an ecumenical service by local faith groups, and was used to promote peaceful co-existence between communities following the murder of Drummer Lee Rigby in Woolwich. Prominent at the event was a book about a Muslim legal proscription against terrorism. Mr Farage spoke about the importance of Commonwealth links and why it is beneficial to have a strict immigration policy. Imam Hafiz Mohd Zeeshan pointed out that those who engage in violence have no place in the community or in religion and he paid tribute to Private Rigby. The event was organised by local UKIP member Mujeeb Bhutto to highlight the continuing contribution made by Asian servicemen and women. Welsh Assembly by-election candidate selected Nathan Gill, a staunch local campaigner in Anglesey, has been selected as the UKIP candidate for the forthcoming Welsh Assembly by-election. Nathan has stood in the area many times and is a true local, hard-working candidate. The local branch fielded candidates across Anglesey at the Council elections in May, thanks in no small part to Nathanï¿½s hard work. This is the first Welsh Assembly by-election for seven years, and the local Labour Party has been hit by controversy over its selection process after the chairman of the Labour Party in the island did not even make the shortlist. Local by-elections round-up On Thursday, we saw another creditable round of by-election performances by UKIP candidates at Council level. The vote shares varied from 17.5% to 34.6% but, as expected, we were not able to hold on to the seat in Worcestershire. The Party continues to do well across the board in both Conservative and Labour seats. Thursdayï¿½s results in full are as follows: Basildon Borough Council, Billericay East Con 790 Terry Gandy - UKIP - 464 (30%) Labour 170 Lib Dem ï¿½ 128 National Front ï¿½ 3 Dartford Newtown Liberal Democrats 30 New recruitment leaflet available to branches A first batch of half a million of the new national leaflet We're Changing Politics (attached) is now available from Alan Bown's warehouse, along with a further stock of the previous leaflet on Romanian and Bulgarian immigration.

Consequently, we should no longer have the same problems with members not receiving the forum newsletters ï¿½ although Iï¿½ve not been able to verify this before sending. I would like to (hopefully) welcome back readers with BT Internet email addresses to the forum newsletter. If you are on BT Internet and donï¿½t receive this message, please let me knowï¿½ Re: UKIP « Reply #42 on: August 06, 2013, 09: AM » Last night saw a number of electoral results for UKIP, but the headline was of course the performance in Anglesey where the UKIP vote shot up in the Ynys Mon by-election to the Welsh Assembly. Whilst the media were wondering whether the UKIP vote could cost the Conservatives second place, UKIPï¿½s surge to take almost 15% of the vote meant that we finished ahead of both the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats. Whilst Plaid Cymru held the seat, Nathan Gill almost managed to beat the Labour candidate ï¿½ his 3,099 votes just a couple of hundred votes short of second place. Nathan Gill has made a tremendous candidate at this election, and has a achieved a well-deserved good result. This will be a massive boost for the Party, showing that we can do well in Assembly elections in Wales. Indeed, it is our best-ever Welsh Assembly result by a considerable margin and provides a stepping stone towards gaining Assembly representation at the next full elections, which include an element of proportional representation. Anglesey result in full Nathan Gill - UKIP - 3099 (14.3%) Conservative - 1843 Liberal Democrats 309 More councillors jump ship to UKIP Three Conservative councillors on Crawley Borough Council and one on Stevenage have joined UKIP. The new UKIP councillor in Stevenage, Cllr. Marilyn Yarnold-Forrester, said: ï¿½I strongly support UKIPï¿½s policy of withdrawal from EU membership as it has a huge effect on our authority in regard to issues such as housing, jobs and finance. UKIP is definitely the way forward in local government as we need new thinking and fresh ideas and I want to be a part of that. As a UKIP councillor, I am better able to represent the people of my ward.ï¿½ No new UKIP peers! Despite the Coalition Agreement, which pledged to make the House of Lords more proportional to the votes of the electorate, no new UKIP peers were created. Even if we ignore the UKIP surge since the General Election, UKIPï¿½s 3%+ of the vote in 2010 should leave the Party in a position to get over 20 new UKIP members of the House of Lords. Yet David Cameron has avoided creating any new UKIP peers (though one new Green Party peer was created). UKIP Leader Nigel Farage said it was an insult to democracy: "For them granting us peerages would be endorsing us as a bona fide political power, and they are simply unwilling to let anyone else into the club who would challenge the status quo. Instead they are giving appointments to people who pay hundreds of thousands into their party or who have actually been rejected by voters in recent elections. Quite frankly it's an insult to democracy in the UK, a country that prides itself on being open and fair and the mother of Parliaments. It puts Westminster on a par with a developing world country dictatorship. UKIP supporters up and down the country should be enraged. The message being sent out by the Prime Minister is 'we don't care how you think, we don't care how you feel and not only will we willfully ignore the way you vote we will actively block you from having any role in British politics'." UKIP concerns over gay marriage realised One of the key reasons for UKIPï¿½s opposition to the legislation on gay marriage was that the Party did not believe government assurances about exemptions for religious organisations, so that no religious group would be forced to conduct such a ceremony if it went against their beliefs. At the time our response to the government consultation included the following: We are quite sure that, whatever the Government's worthy declaration that it proposes no change to the duties of the Church in relation to the estate of marriage, there will ,very soon after the introduction of gay civil marriage, be a challenge in first the domestic courts of England and Wales and then in the European Court of Human Rights alleging that the exclusion of gay people from the right to have a religious ceremony of marriage is unlawful discrimination against them on the grounds of their sexual orientation. We believe that, given the current nature of the European Court of Human Rights' attitude to such matters, there is a very strong likelihood that the Court at Strasbourg will agree that it is an unlawful discrimination on those grounds and order the United Kingdom to introduce laws which will force Churches to marry gay people according to their rites, rituals and customs. This conviction is supported by the statement of the Justice Minister, Mr Blunt who is quoted in the Daily Mail of 13th June 2012 saying, "It would be hard to guarantee that clergy would not face court challenges if they refused to preside over same-sex unions.ï¿½ But an article in the Essex Chronicle shows, precisely as UKIP feared, that the new law ï¿½ which has only just received Royal Assent - is already going to be challenged in the courts. Barrie Drewett-Barlow intends to take legal action, and was quoted as saying ï¿½The only way forward for us now is to make a challenge in the courts against the church.ï¿½ The full article can be found at http://www.essexchronicle.co.uk/Gay-dads-set-sue-church-sex-marriage-opt/story-19597954-detail/story.html . Council by-elections update In Amber Valley, a UKIP candidate took 23.5% of the vote, finishing second in the Labour-held ward of Codnor and Waingroves. The result was Labour 557, UKIP 250, Conservatives 219, Liberal Democrats 39. Sadly, UKIP were not able to hold on to a seat which had been gained in May by just one vote ï¿½ despite the UKIP vote share going up from 35% to 38% in the meantime. The result, for Thetford West in Norfolk was Labour 1071, UKIP 900, Conservatives 282, Independent 78, Green 40. In St. Maryï¿½s division on Worcestershire County Council, the UKIP candidate also finished in second position with 23.8% of the vote. The results were Conservatives 504, UKIP 442, Labour 388, ICHC 331, Independent 195. Re: UKIP « Reply #43 on: August 11, 2013, 08: PM » August is often a quiet month for UKIP, but this one has proved to be anything but! There have been some interesting stories in the media, and of course the MEP selection process is also a focus of attention. In this newsletter, some stories which you might have missed over the last few days. Iï¿½ll begin with Gibraltar, where Paul Nuttall and William Dartmouth have been last week. UKIP moving forward in Gibraltar UKIP Deputy Leader Paul Nuttall MEP, who has suggested that Gibraltar should have a referendum on having representation at Westminster, went to visit the Rock earlier in the week leading a UKIP delegation. The discussions, according to a statement from the Defenders of Gibraltar, centred around how UKIP could help in highlighting Gibraltarï¿½s plight at an EU parliamentary level, with UKIP expressing their support of our cause as well as promising to do their best to support Gibraltar and its people. UKIP South West MEP William Dartmouth also visited, being quoted as saying there is ï¿½neither friendship nor free tradeï¿½ between Spain and Gibraltar. The Daily Express reports today that on Thursday an official visit to the frontier by Paul Nuttall MEP and a Gibraltarian delegation sparked mayhem when Spanish border guards began filming the visitors. In todayï¿½s Daily Express, Neil Hamiltonï¿½s column also featured Gibraltar with some interesting facts and figures about the local economy: http://www.express.co.uk/comment/expresscomment/421252/Why-is-Spain-so-childish . Candidate shortlist for the European Elections to be announced tomorrow The candidate list for the European elections 2014 will be announced at midday tomorrow (Monday 12th August) on the membersï¿½ forum www.ukip.org.uk . These candidates will then go forward to a ballot of Party members, to determine the final positions on the list. Candidates will also be subject to further checks and scrutiny. Local elections round-up The elections in 2014 provide a real opportunity for UKIP to make a breakthrough. The extra publicity which will be gained from the European elections is bound to have a positive impact on the UKIP vote at local elections. Likewise, having a strong team of local election candidates will have a positive effect on our European election success. For that reason, it will be vital to get a full slate of candidates for as many Councils as possible. Anyone interested in standing should (assuming there are local elections in your area next year) get in touch with their local branch as soon as possible. Another strong local elections showing next year would start to have other benefits. This yearï¿½s elections made a big difference to the Party. UKIP currently forms part of the Independent group on the Local Government Association. Thanks to this yearï¿½s results, Pete Reeve became the Deputy Leader of that Group. In by-elections UKIPï¿½s strongest result this week came in Redcar & Cleveland, where a UKIP candidate took 30% of the vote coming a strong second to Labour. The result in the Skelton ward was as follows: Labour 745 Re: UKIP « Reply #44 on: August 18, 2013, 09: AM » Todayï¿½s forum newsletter will feature the results of the assessment process for potential UKIP MEP candidates. Steve Crowther, the UKIP Chairman said: ï¿½After an exhaustive, multilayered assessment programme, the original 200 individuals who put themselves forward as prospective candidates have been whittled down to the current 78. We are now offering our approved list to the membership to make their choices. "We are of course delighted with the quality of the people we are putting forward, but it was no easy task. There are many who will be disappointed not to see their names on this list, but that sadly is the nature of a hotly contested selection process. The Assessment Panel have been astonished at the extremely high standard of the candidates we have met, all around the country. There are many talented, capable people who have not made it through this time. I can only thank them for all the hard work and commitment they have shown during the process. ï¿½Those who have not made it through this selection process are nonetheless already on our Approved List to be on our Westminster candidates and we look forward to them being selected for, fighting and winning Westminster seats in 2015ï¿½. Local elections round-up A UKIP candidate in the Shebbear and Langtree ward on Torridge and West Devon council has achieved one of the highest percentage vote shares ever for a UKIP candidate who wasnï¿½t elected. Despite taking 42.7% of the vote in a 4-way fight, Penny Mills finished just short of being elected. The votes were Conservative 240, UKIP 217, Green 41, No description 10. Penny Mills is the local chairman of the Campaign to Protect Rural England, and gained publicity through her opposition to wind farms. The candidate with no description was a Liberal Democrat, with a mix-up over nomination papers. In the North East, Labour held a ward in Hartlepool (Manor House), but UKIP went up from 3rd place to 2nd place and took 19.9% of the vote. The ï¿½Putting Hartlepool Firstï¿½ Party had taken (effectively) second place at an all-up election following boundary changes in 2012. The result was Labour 639, UKIP 226, Putting Hartlepool First 194, Conservatives 74. Congratulations to Tom Hind on an excellent result. In the Aldridge Central and South ward in Walsall, there was still another second place for UKIP. Whilst second places donï¿½t get councillors elected, the fact that UKIP is competing everywhere will certainly bode well for our chances under proportional representation at the next European elections. Liz Hazell was the UKIP candidate, taking 24.4% of the vote. The full result was Conservatives 1254, UKIP 615, Labour 470, Liberal Democrats 114, English Democrats 72. Thanks, once again, must go to all those who were prepared to put their names forward for election and all those who assisted with the campaigns.

Please send in your entries along with your membership number and the reasons as to why you feel the individual deserves the award, and the council will then pick the best entry and the award will be given out at the YI Conference.

Which English king was crowned king of France in 1431?	BBC - History - King Henry VI z Henry VI © King from 1422 to 1461 and from 1470 to 1471 and the last Lancastrian ruler of England, Henry's reign was dominated by the Wars of the Roses. Henry was born on 6 December 1421 at Windsor Castle. He was only nine months old when he succeeded his father, Henry V. He was crowned king of England in 1429 and, as result of his father's successes against the French, king of France in 1431. A regency council ran England until Henry was considered old enough to rule in 1437. In 1445, he married Margaret of Anjou. Henry was a pious man whose interest in government was sporadic, who picked the wrong advisors and who was unable to prevent the power struggles that began to develop at court. Meanwhile, the dual monarchy proved too difficult to maintain; the successes of the Dauphin and Joan of Arc began to weaken England's grip on its French possessions and Normandy was lost in 1450. This only contributed to the erosion of Henry's prestige and authority. In 1453, the king had a mental breakdown and Richard, Duke of York, was made protector. The king recovered in 1455, but civil war broke out between the Yorkist and Lancastrian factions. The ensuing struggle came to be known as the Wars of the Roses. While the Duke of York was the main figure on the Yorkist side, Margaret, Henry's queen, took charge of the Lancastrian cause. In 1460, York was killed at the Battle of Wakefield but his son took up the fight, defeating the Lancastrians at Towton in 1461 and crowning himself Edward IV. Henry fled into exile, but returned and was captured by Edward in 1465. The Earl of Warwick - previously an ally of Edward - now switched sides and restored Henry to the throne in 1470. Edward returned from exile and destroyed the Lancastrian forces at Tewkesbury in May 1471. Henry and Margaret's only son was among the Lancastrian dead. Henry VI, who had been imprisoned in the Tower of London, was murdered shortly afterwards.	Henry VI
Which Nobel Prize has been won by William Ramsay, Fritz Haber and Otto Hahn?	Joan of Arc martyred - May 30, 1431 - HISTORY.com Joan of Arc martyred Publisher A+E Networks At Rouen in English-controlled Normandy, Joan of Arc, the peasant girl who became the savior of France, is burned at the stake for heresy. Joan was born in 1412, the daughter of a tenant farmer at Domremy, on the borders of the duchies of Bar and Lorraine. In 1415, the Hundred Years War between England and France entered a crucial phase when the young King Henry V of England invaded France and won a series of decisive victories against the forces of King Charles VI. By the time of Henry’s death in August 1422, the English and their French-Burgundian allies controlled Aquitaine and most of northern France, including Paris. Charles VI, long incapacitated, died one month later, and his son, Charles, regent from 1418, prepared to take the throne. However, Reims, the traditional city of French coronation, was held by the Anglo-Burgundians, and the Dauphin (heir apparent to the French throne) remained uncrowned. Meanwhile, King Henry VI of England, the infant son of Henry V and Catherine of Valois, the daughter of Charles VI, was proclaimed king of France by the English. Joan’s village of Domremy lay on the frontier between the France of the Dauphin and that of the Anglo-Burgundians. In the midst of this unstable environment, Joan began hearing “voices” of three Christian saints—St. Michael, St. Catherine, and St. Margaret. When she was about 16, these voices exhorted her to aid the Dauphin in capturing Reims and therefore the French throne. In May 1428, she traveled to Vaucouleurs, a stronghold of the Dauphin, and told the captain of the garrison of her visions. Disbelieving the young peasant girl, he sent her home. In January 1429, she returned, and the captain, impressed by her piety and determination, agreed to allow her passage to the Dauphin at Chinon. Dressed in men’s clothes and accompanied by six soldiers, she reached the Dauphin’s castle at Chinon in February 1429 and was granted an audience. Charles hid himself among his courtiers, but Joan immediately picked him out and informed him of her divine mission. For several weeks, Charles had Joan questioned by theologians at Poitiers, who concluded that, given his desperate straits, the Dauphin would be well-advised to make use of this strange and charismatic girl. Charles furnished her with a small army, and on April 27, 1429, she set out for Orleans, besieged by the English since October 1428. On April 29, as a French sortie distracted the English troops on the west side of Orleans, Joan entered unopposed by its eastern gate. She brought greatly needed supplies and reinforcements and inspired the French to a passionate resistance. She personally led the charge in several battles and on May 7 was struck by an arrow. After quickly dressing her wound, she returned to the fight, and the French won the day. On May 8, the English retreated from Orleans. During the next five weeks, Joan and the French commanders led the French into a string of stunning victories over the English. On July 16, the royal army reached Reims, which opened its gates to Joan and the Dauphin. The next day, Charles VII was crowned king of France, with Joan standing nearby holding up her standard: an image of Christ in judgment. After the ceremony, she knelt before Charles, joyously calling him king for the first time. On September 8, the king and Joan attacked Paris. During the battle, Joan carried her standard up to the earthworks and called on the Parisians to surrender the city to the king of France. She was wounded but continued to rally the king’s troops until Charles ordered an end to the unsuccessful siege. That year, she led several more small campaigns, capturing the town of Saint-Pierre-le-Moitier. In December, Charles ennobled Joan, her parents, and her brothers. In May 1430, the Burgundians laid siege to Compiegne, and Joan stole into the town under the cover of darkness to aid in its defense. On May 23, while leading a sortie against the Burgundians, she was captured. The Burgundians sold her to the English, and in March 1431 she went on trial before ecclesiastical authorities in Rouen on charges of heresy. Her most serious crime, according to the tribunal, was her rejection of church authority in favor of direct inspiration from God. After refusing to submit to the church, her sentence was read on May 24: She was to be turned over to secular authorities and executed. Reacting with horror to the pronouncement, Joan agreed to recant and was condemned instead to perpetual imprisonment. Ordered to put on women’s clothes, she obeyed, but a few days later the judges went to her cell and found her dressed again in male attire. Questioned, she told them that St. Catherine and St. Margaret had reproached her for giving in to the church against their will. She was found to be a relapsed heretic and on May 29 ordered handed over to secular officials. On May 30, Joan, 19 years old, was burned at the stake at the Place du Vieux-Marche in Rouen. Before the pyre was lit, she instructed a priest to hold high a crucifix for her to see and to shout out prayers loud enough to be heard above the roar of the flames. As a source of military inspiration, Joan of Arc helped turn the Hundred Years War firmly in France’s favor. By 1453, Charles VII had reconquered all of France except for Calais, which the English relinquished in 1558. In 1920, Joan of Arc, one of the great heroes of French history, was recognized as a Christian saint by the Roman Catholic Church. Her feast day is May 30. Related Videos	i don't know
The badge of West Bromwich Albion FC contains a bird together with the fruit and leaves of which shrub or small tree?	AEN TV Guide by SW Digital Ads - issuu issuu Grant Gustin stars in “The Flash,” premiering Tuesday on The CW. October 3 - 9, 2014 ‘Flash’-back BY JACQUELINE CUTLER ‘The Flash’ zooms onto The CW Grant Gustin Barry Allen was always heroic but it took a freak accident to turn him into a superhero in The CW’s “The Flash” premiering Tuesday, Oct. 7. Barry (Grant Gustin, “Glee”) is an unlikely superhero: sweet, skinny and scientific. His altruism was evident even as a child when he stood up to bullies taunting others. When Barry was 11, a freak electric storm exploded in his living room, and killed his mom. His dad was convicted of her murder, but Barry always maintained his father’s innocence. The father of Barry’s best friend, Detective Joe West (Jesse L. Martin, “Law & Order”), took in the orphan, and remains his surrogate father. As an adult, Barry works for Central City Police Department in forensics. He continues to be a sweet guy, who loves science. Struck by lightning during a cataclysmic storm, he’s left comatose. When he comes to he’s delighted to discover he has six-pack abs. Later, he realizes the incredible speed. He is The Flash. The pilot devotes fun scenes to Barry discovering his speed. He crashes until he learns to harness his special power. Gustin had not read the comics growing up, though he’s since learned much about this world. He sees Barry as a very full character, who is “optimistic and full of hope,” Gustin says. “Barry has a dark past.” Barry grew up respecting Joe, and harboring a crush on his best friend, Joe’s daughter, Iris (Candice Patton). They continue to have a loving friendship. Tom Cavanagh (“Ed”) plays scientific genius Harrison Wells who has a particle accelerator and likely designs on world domination. For now, at least, he appears to be helping The Flash realize his powers. Being the fastest man alive takes some work. As a lifelong dancer, Gustin was in shape, but needed to train for the role. “I worked with a track and field trainer,” Gustin says. “He showed me how to be more efficient.” The Flash, he says, “is less equipped than most superheroes and less reluctant to become a hero. He’s always been invisible to people, even at work. All he wants to do is help people. He’s a police scientist in CSI and he will continue to be.” Central City needs all the help they can get. The Flash is not the only meta-human, as these genetically altered folks are known. A bank robber in the pilot causes cyclones, showcasing terrific special effects. Based on the DC comics, the pilot cleverly lays out alliances and gives viewers, even those who can’t cite the character’s history, a solid understanding of this world. 6 x 3” ad Echo News October 3 - 9, 2014 Sports AUTO RACING FRIDAY 11:00 a.m. (37) FS1 NASCAR Racing Nationwide Series: Kansas Lottery 300, Practice.

October 3 - 9, 2014 Echo News Tom Bergeron 6 p.m. on # ABC America’s Funniest Home VideosThe 25th season of the audience-fueled series begins, and it’s significant in another way: It also marks the start of host Tom Bergeron’s 15th season with the show — his final one as well, by his own decision. He expects that to be factored into the weekly fun, especially since viewers have been invited to submit audition videos to possibly succeed him. Then again, the Muppets also have submitted one, so who actually will get the job is anyone’s guess at this point. 8 p.m. on # ABC ResurrectionWho has taken up residence in Caleb Richards’ former dwelling? Caleb himself, perhaps? Bellamy and Fred (Omar Epps, Matt Craven) wonder if he’s become yet another of the returned in the new episode “Echoes.” Knowing that he has returned himself, Bellamy has personal crises, some linked to the marching orders his boss (guest star Donna Murphy) has given him. Janine (Lori Beth Sikes) tries to save her marriage to Pastor Tom (Mark Hildreth). 8 p.m. on . HBO Boardwalk EmpireIn the new episode “King of Norway,” Chalky (Michael Kenneth Williams) returns to Atlantic City with vengeance on his mind. Nucky (Steve Buscemi) arranges a meeting with Maranzano (Giampiero Judica) in New York. Eli’s (Shea Whigham) reunion with June (Nisi Sturgis) takes an unexpected turn after a dinner party hosted by Van Alden and Sigrid (Michael Shannon, Christiane Seidel). Capone (Stephen Graham) considers moving his operation out of Chicago. Kelly Macdonald also stars. 8 p.m. on R FOOD Halloween WarsThe hit autumn series returns for its fourth season, as five teams — composed of an ace pumpkin carver, a cake decorator and a sugar artist — battle to create mind-blowing Halloween themed displays that capture a terrifying haunted farm. Special guest judge Naomi Grossman (“American Horror Story: Asylum”) joins regular panelists Brian Kinney and Shinmin Li. 9:01 p.m. on # ABC RevengeVictoria (Madeleine Stowe) is at the heart of a lot of the trouble — a situation quite familiar to this show’s characters and followers — in the new episode “Disclosure.” In an effort to locate her, Emily (Emily VanCamp) is uncomfortably reunited with a number of people from her past, including one who’s an outright enemy. Josh Bowman, Nick Wechsler and Gabriel Mann also star. 9 Food truck foodies ‘Face Off’ on Food Network BY GEORGE DICKIE Jesse Palmer Viewers who tuned into last week’s premiere of Food Network’s Thursday competition series “Food Truck Face Off” were treated to an intense battle between teams of culinary entrepreneurs vying for what could be a career-changing prize, a customized food truck. Host Jesse Palmer, on the other hand, was treated to, well, dinner. “I ate very well this offseason doing the show,” says Palmer, a former pro quarterback whose day job is as a college football analyst for ESPN. “I actually wasn’t allowed to eat any of the food on camera, but off camera I was literally wolfing it and inhaling it down. ... A lot of the food was just delicious. It was great.” Each of the 13 first-season episodes of “Food Truck Face Off ” is a two-tiered competition that took place in various cities across the U.S. and Canada. In the first, four teams present their unique food-truck concepts to a panel of judges that includes TV personality Steak Shapiro, restaurateur Alpana Singh and rotating guest judges. From there, two teams are selected to go head-to-head in an intense two-day competition. The team that earns the most in that time span will win the use of a customized food truck for one year. Some competitors were professionals with culinary training, others home amateurs. And the fare, Palmer indicates, was all over the map, ranging from American and Mexican to Caribbean and Asian, pleasing vegan and meat lovers’ palates. “It would have been very hard to be a judge on a lot of these different episodes,” Palmer says. “It was probably a lot tougher than even the judges had anticipated. They did a phenomenal job casting the show and they found some unbelievable cooks with some real culinary skills from all around the United States and Canada to compete on this show. “So hosting it was the easy part, I can say that,” he says. “Being a judge would have been very, very difficult.” And among the competitors, winning the one-year lease on a customized truck was no small deal, Palmer explains. “There was a lot of emotion that came through on the show,” he says, “way more so than I had anticipated going in and doing it. There were some very heavy moments; there were some amazingly light-hearted moments. But I think getting to share that with these people – they were just very real. “Some of the challenges these teams had to go through were ... very mentally and emotionally strenuous and challenging as well. These teams, especially the ones that won, they really earned it and they put everything on the line. “And I think for me, that was probably the most rewarding thing just as a host sitting back and watching, because it was an incredible competition. It was very well thought out. It was very, very challenging, and I really felt like the teams that won, it’s just really something that’s really going to change their lives.” 2 x 2” ad 2 x 2” ad 2 x 2” ad tv crossword 38 Alan Cumming’s role on “The Good Wife” 39 Actress Barbara 42 “__ Race”; 2001 film for Whoopi 43 Role on “NCIS: Los Angeles” (2) Down The identity of the featured celebrity is found within the answers in the puzzle.

That’s Tom Bergeron’s sense, at least. As he hits the decade-and-a-half mark of hosting the weekly ABC mirth-fest “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” the show’s 25th season – beginning Sunday, Oct. 5 – also will be his last. He’ll continue in his Emmy-winning role on ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars,” but as for “Videos,” he’s comfortable with starting his victory lap. “It’s going to be bittersweet,” the genial, quick-witted Bergeron forecasts. “It’s my call for it to be my last season, but I really want to have fun with it. I think the first thing we do is celebrate the fact that it’s the 25th season of the show; that’s the main story. Then, as a subtext, we’ll have fun with the fact that it’s my last season.” Deciding to leave the show is as simple as “it just felt like time,” Bergeron insists. “I love the idea of making it was my call and not someone else’s, and of doing it in concert with the show’s 25th anniversary. “I’m a a fan of ‘Doctor Who,’ and they revitalize that show periodically by recasting the lead. I thought this was a perfect time, from almost a story-line standpoint, to pass it on to somebody else at the 25th anniversary to take it into the future.” Bob Saget (“Full House”) was the original host of “America’s Funniest Home Videos.” As for who will be next, Bergeron maintains he’s as curious as anyone. “Some of the auditions will be comedic, like the Muppets, and others will be legitimate. People are auditioning through videos they’re sending to the show now.” That’s appropriate for a program that has relied heavily on submissions from the public. Nothing guarantees an unknown will be Bergeron’s eventual successor, but he recognizes that option is a valid one. “The show is the videos,” he asserts. “I use a really old reference to describe how I’ve approached it: It’s like Martin and Lewis. I’m like a tone-deaf Dean Martin in setting up the videos, which are the Jerry Lewis. That’s really thanks to the writers, though. My sense of humor is much more on display on ‘Dancing With the Stars.’ ” Bergeron’s last SCOTT BAKULA OF ‘NCIS: NEW ORLEANS’ ON CBS Q: With “NCIS: New Orleans” carrying forward another TV brand, how do you assess your ride through the medium that also has yielded such shows as “Star Trek: Enterprise” and “Quantum Leap”? I’ve been really lucky. There are very few places on this planet that I can go without somebody recognizing me. It used to be the countries where “Quantum Leap” was playing, but when you added the “Star Trek” side to it, that pretty much rounded it out. Now, with this ... this is the No. 1 franchise in the world, and I’ve never been associated with anything of that magnitude. “Star Trek” was years of building, but I have relatives in England and Germany who say. “Oh, you have no idea how much ‘NCIS’ is loved over here. And everybody loves New Orleans, so there, you’ve got it.” Do you worry that three “NCIS” shows being on at once can overextend the brand? There’s the little voice in the back of my head that asks, “Is three one too many?” That’s not on me to worry about. I did the movie “Major League: Back to the Minors,” and that was the third one in that franchise. I’d been offered a few sequels and had always said “no,” but my agent told me to go meet the director of that one, and he was a really good guy. It didn’t do particularly well, but I didn’t regret the experience. At the end of the day, I can’t be trying to figure the odds in this business. Anyone who could do that would be a mega-mega-billionaire. ‘Funniest’ season BEST SITCOMS STARRING COMICS BY GEORGE DICKIE “The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show” (CBS, 1950-58) By the time this show hit the air in 1950, Burns and Allen were stars in their own right thanks to their 1920s vaudeville act and a 1930s-40s radio show. The catalyst for much of the comedy came from daffy Allen’s misadventures with neighbor Blanche (Bea Benaderet), which annoyed Blanche’s husband, Harry (played by several actors), but provided Burns with fodder to philosophize in asides to the camera. The show was still popular when it ended in 1958 thanks to Allen’s decision to retire. Jerry Seinfeld Bill Cosby George Burns 12 “The Cosby Show” (NBC, 1984-92) Bill Cosby’s riffs and theories on parenthood and child-rearing were at the center of this family sitcom that provided plenty of laughs for the adults in the audience. He starred as Dr. Cliff Huxtable, an obstetrician practicing out of his Manhattan brownstone, which he shared with wife Clair (Phylicia Rashad) and five children (Sabrina Le Beauf, Lisa Bonet, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Tempestt Bledsoe and Keshia Knight Pulliam). The show kicked off NBC’s “Must-See TV” Thursday nights that were a ratings juggernaut for the better part of two decades. “Seinfeld” (NBC, 1990-98) A no-brainer and undoubtedly the definitive sitcom of the 1990s. Jerry Seinfeld brought his stand-up act to television as a comedian named Jerry Seinfeld, who plied his trade in New York clubs while hanging out with a group of quirky friends (Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Michael Richards). If the show’s 10 Emmys and long life in syndication isn’t testament enough to the show’s greatness, the endurance of such catchphrases as “no soup for you,” “master of my domain” and “spongeworthy” is. “The Drew Carey Show” (ABC, 1995-2004) Crew-cutted comic Carey was co-creator and star of this sitcom set in his hometown of Cleveland, in which he played himself as a downtrodden department-store employee whose pastimes included drinking beer with friends (Deidrich Bader, Ryan Stiles, Christa Miller), fighting with a cartoonish coworker (Kathy Kinney) and striking out with the opposite sex. It also featured future talk-show host Craig Ferguson as Drew’s boss and, in earlier seasons, a memorable opening credits sequence set to the Vogues’ “Five O’Clock World.” Echo News # ABC < UNI & NBC TELE 0 PBS * CBS (307) WGN-A FOX .

October 3 - 9, 2014 tonight’s picks MONDAY Evening 6 PM TW DTV Network Channels 3 News at 6 # # ABC (N) (CC) La Gata $ < UNI Name 7 p.m. on * CBS The Big Bang TheoryEver wonder why someone simply doesn’t like you? Penny (Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting) does in the new episode “The Hook-Up Reverberation,” as she’s puzzled by the decidedly cool reactions she gets from Emily (guest star Laura Spencer), Raj’s (Kunal Nayyar) girlfriend. Stuart (Kevin Sussman) soon may have partners in operating his comic-book store ... namely, Sheldon (Jim Parsons), Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and company. Simon Helberg also stars. 7 p.m. on R FOOD RewrappedThree chefs try their hands at replicating Chef Boyardee’s Beef Ravioli in the new episode “Boy, Ar-Dees Good.” One chef’s pasta dough falls apart, and the two finalists both decide to make desserts out of the ravioli in their Innovate round. Judges are Marc Summers, Daniel Marple and Aaron Sanchez. 8 p.m. on * CBS ScorpionViewed skeptically by Cabe (Robert Patrick) after not making the grade in a military training assignment, Walter (Elyes Gabel) and his teammates get a chance to redeem themselves in the new episode “A Cyclone.” They put their special skills to work to stop a bomber who has an eye toward ridding the entire American Southwest of its Internet access. Glenn Plummer (“Speed”) guest stars. Katharine McPhee, Eddie Kaye Thomas and Jadyn Wong also star. 8 p.m. on R FOOD Mystery DinersIn the new episode “Partner in Crime,” Ondrea, the owner of Black Rose Tavern in Los Angeles, fears that someone is taking advantage of her after noticing multiple register mistakes. Sure enough, Mystery Diners Rob and Amanda discover someone is lining their pockets with her charity proceeds. 9 p.m. on & NBC The BlacklistWhat seems like something out of a horror movie — murder victims with their hearts cut out — becomes all too real for Liz and Ressler (Megan Boone, Diego Klattenhoff) in their latest case in the new episode “Dr. James Covington.” Said doctor (guest star Ron Cephas Jones) is involved in black-market dealings, thus his need for organs. In Indonesia, Red (James Spader) pursues new business and ends up in potential danger.

Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani and Pharrell Williams are seen making their decisions that lead to the so-called “battle rounds,” which start next week. Carson Daly is the host. 7 p.m. on 1 CW The FlashDC Comics is having a big TV-series run, thanks in part to this new reimagining of the saga of Barry Allen (played by Grant Gustin), whose DNA is altered by a “particle accelerator.” If you wonder how fast he can move, check the title again. In a neat bit of casting, John Wesley Shipp — who was the Flash in an earlier series — plays Barry’s father here. Tom Cavanagh, Jesse L. Martin and Danielle Panabaker also star in the premiere, “City of Heroes.” 8 p.m. on ) PBS Makers“Women in Hollywood” fuel the franchise’s second new episode, and not only females famous for being in front of cameras ... though they are represented here by Jane Fonda, Glenn Close and Zoe Saldana (“Star Trek”).

With Finch and Root (Michael Emerson, Amy Acker) absent, Reese (Jim Caviezel) has to play “by the book” more than he’d like to.

Odds are, if you mention the phrase “Khrushchev’s due at Idlewild” to anyone under the age of 40, they will have no clue what you are talking about. (And, yes, for my purposes, anyone under the age of 40 is a “young people.”) By now, they have long since forgotten the high school history class where they learned Nikita Khrushchev was the Russian president during the Cuban missile crisis back in the early ‘60s. I’ll bet my more “mature” readers instantly recognized the penultimate line from one of the best TV theme songs of all time, “Car 54 Where Are You?” (“There’s a holdup in 18 The Bronx, Brooklyn’s broken out in fights. There’s a traffic jam in Harlem that’s backed up to Jackson Heights. There’s a scout troop short a child ... .”) Theme songs from the ‘60s and ‘70s were so much more memorable than those of today. If anyone can think of any themes from this century that are half as catchy and popular as “Gilligan’s Island” or “The Beverly Hillbillies,” please let me know. And, forgive me in advance for getting this next one stuck in your head, but can you spy a boy and his dad walking down to the fishing hole without starting to whistle the theme from “The Andy Griffith Show”? Not as well-known, but my favorite theme song ever was “Best Friend” from “The Courtship of Eddie’s Father” starring the late (great) Bill Bixby. That song, by the hugely under-appreciated Harry Nilsson, fit perfectly with the charm of that show. (“People let me tell you ‘bout my best friend. He’s a warm-hearted person who’ll love me ‘til the end.”) Oh, in case it has been driving you crazy, Idlewild was the original name of Kennedy Airport in New York.

Who directed the 2012 film Les Miserables?	AEN TV Guide by SW Digital Ads - issuu issuu Grant Gustin stars in “The Flash,” premiering Tuesday on The CW. October 3 - 9, 2014 ‘Flash’-back BY JACQUELINE CUTLER ‘The Flash’ zooms onto The CW Grant Gustin Barry Allen was always heroic but it took a freak accident to turn him into a superhero in The CW’s “The Flash” premiering Tuesday, Oct. 7. Barry (Grant Gustin, “Glee”) is an unlikely superhero: sweet, skinny and scientific. His altruism was evident even as a child when he stood up to bullies taunting others. When Barry was 11, a freak electric storm exploded in his living room, and killed his mom. His dad was convicted of her murder, but Barry always maintained his father’s innocence. The father of Barry’s best friend, Detective Joe West (Jesse L. Martin, “Law & Order”), took in the orphan, and remains his surrogate father. As an adult, Barry works for Central City Police Department in forensics. He continues to be a sweet guy, who loves science. Struck by lightning during a cataclysmic storm, he’s left comatose. When he comes to he’s delighted to discover he has six-pack abs. Later, he realizes the incredible speed. He is The Flash. The pilot devotes fun scenes to Barry discovering his speed. He crashes until he learns to harness his special power. Gustin had not read the comics growing up, though he’s since learned much about this world. He sees Barry as a very full character, who is “optimistic and full of hope,” Gustin says. “Barry has a dark past.” Barry grew up respecting Joe, and harboring a crush on his best friend, Joe’s daughter, Iris (Candice Patton). They continue to have a loving friendship. Tom Cavanagh (“Ed”) plays scientific genius Harrison Wells who has a particle accelerator and likely designs on world domination. For now, at least, he appears to be helping The Flash realize his powers. Being the fastest man alive takes some work. As a lifelong dancer, Gustin was in shape, but needed to train for the role. “I worked with a track and field trainer,” Gustin says. “He showed me how to be more efficient.” The Flash, he says, “is less equipped than most superheroes and less reluctant to become a hero. He’s always been invisible to people, even at work. All he wants to do is help people. He’s a police scientist in CSI and he will continue to be.” Central City needs all the help they can get. The Flash is not the only meta-human, as these genetically altered folks are known. A bank robber in the pilot causes cyclones, showcasing terrific special effects. Based on the DC comics, the pilot cleverly lays out alliances and gives viewers, even those who can’t cite the character’s history, a solid understanding of this world. 6 x 3” ad Echo News October 3 - 9, 2014 Sports AUTO RACING FRIDAY 11:00 a.m. (37) FS1 NASCAR Racing Nationwide Series: Kansas Lottery 300, Practice.

October 3 - 9, 2014 Echo News Tom Bergeron 6 p.m. on # ABC America’s Funniest Home VideosThe 25th season of the audience-fueled series begins, and it’s significant in another way: It also marks the start of host Tom Bergeron’s 15th season with the show — his final one as well, by his own decision. He expects that to be factored into the weekly fun, especially since viewers have been invited to submit audition videos to possibly succeed him. Then again, the Muppets also have submitted one, so who actually will get the job is anyone’s guess at this point. 8 p.m. on # ABC ResurrectionWho has taken up residence in Caleb Richards’ former dwelling? Caleb himself, perhaps? Bellamy and Fred (Omar Epps, Matt Craven) wonder if he’s become yet another of the returned in the new episode “Echoes.” Knowing that he has returned himself, Bellamy has personal crises, some linked to the marching orders his boss (guest star Donna Murphy) has given him. Janine (Lori Beth Sikes) tries to save her marriage to Pastor Tom (Mark Hildreth). 8 p.m. on . HBO Boardwalk EmpireIn the new episode “King of Norway,” Chalky (Michael Kenneth Williams) returns to Atlantic City with vengeance on his mind. Nucky (Steve Buscemi) arranges a meeting with Maranzano (Giampiero Judica) in New York. Eli’s (Shea Whigham) reunion with June (Nisi Sturgis) takes an unexpected turn after a dinner party hosted by Van Alden and Sigrid (Michael Shannon, Christiane Seidel). Capone (Stephen Graham) considers moving his operation out of Chicago. Kelly Macdonald also stars. 8 p.m. on R FOOD Halloween WarsThe hit autumn series returns for its fourth season, as five teams — composed of an ace pumpkin carver, a cake decorator and a sugar artist — battle to create mind-blowing Halloween themed displays that capture a terrifying haunted farm. Special guest judge Naomi Grossman (“American Horror Story: Asylum”) joins regular panelists Brian Kinney and Shinmin Li. 9:01 p.m. on # ABC RevengeVictoria (Madeleine Stowe) is at the heart of a lot of the trouble — a situation quite familiar to this show’s characters and followers — in the new episode “Disclosure.” In an effort to locate her, Emily (Emily VanCamp) is uncomfortably reunited with a number of people from her past, including one who’s an outright enemy. Josh Bowman, Nick Wechsler and Gabriel Mann also star. 9 Food truck foodies ‘Face Off’ on Food Network BY GEORGE DICKIE Jesse Palmer Viewers who tuned into last week’s premiere of Food Network’s Thursday competition series “Food Truck Face Off” were treated to an intense battle between teams of culinary entrepreneurs vying for what could be a career-changing prize, a customized food truck. Host Jesse Palmer, on the other hand, was treated to, well, dinner. “I ate very well this offseason doing the show,” says Palmer, a former pro quarterback whose day job is as a college football analyst for ESPN. “I actually wasn’t allowed to eat any of the food on camera, but off camera I was literally wolfing it and inhaling it down. ... A lot of the food was just delicious. It was great.” Each of the 13 first-season episodes of “Food Truck Face Off ” is a two-tiered competition that took place in various cities across the U.S. and Canada. In the first, four teams present their unique food-truck concepts to a panel of judges that includes TV personality Steak Shapiro, restaurateur Alpana Singh and rotating guest judges. From there, two teams are selected to go head-to-head in an intense two-day competition. The team that earns the most in that time span will win the use of a customized food truck for one year. Some competitors were professionals with culinary training, others home amateurs. And the fare, Palmer indicates, was all over the map, ranging from American and Mexican to Caribbean and Asian, pleasing vegan and meat lovers’ palates. “It would have been very hard to be a judge on a lot of these different episodes,” Palmer says. “It was probably a lot tougher than even the judges had anticipated. They did a phenomenal job casting the show and they found some unbelievable cooks with some real culinary skills from all around the United States and Canada to compete on this show. “So hosting it was the easy part, I can say that,” he says. “Being a judge would have been very, very difficult.” And among the competitors, winning the one-year lease on a customized truck was no small deal, Palmer explains. “There was a lot of emotion that came through on the show,” he says, “way more so than I had anticipated going in and doing it. There were some very heavy moments; there were some amazingly light-hearted moments. But I think getting to share that with these people – they were just very real. “Some of the challenges these teams had to go through were ... very mentally and emotionally strenuous and challenging as well. These teams, especially the ones that won, they really earned it and they put everything on the line. “And I think for me, that was probably the most rewarding thing just as a host sitting back and watching, because it was an incredible competition. It was very well thought out. It was very, very challenging, and I really felt like the teams that won, it’s just really something that’s really going to change their lives.” 2 x 2” ad 2 x 2” ad 2 x 2” ad tv crossword 38 Alan Cumming’s role on “The Good Wife” 39 Actress Barbara 42 “__ Race”; 2001 film for Whoopi 43 Role on “NCIS: Los Angeles” (2) Down The identity of the featured celebrity is found within the answers in the puzzle.

That’s Tom Bergeron’s sense, at least. As he hits the decade-and-a-half mark of hosting the weekly ABC mirth-fest “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” the show’s 25th season – beginning Sunday, Oct. 5 – also will be his last. He’ll continue in his Emmy-winning role on ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars,” but as for “Videos,” he’s comfortable with starting his victory lap. “It’s going to be bittersweet,” the genial, quick-witted Bergeron forecasts. “It’s my call for it to be my last season, but I really want to have fun with it. I think the first thing we do is celebrate the fact that it’s the 25th season of the show; that’s the main story. Then, as a subtext, we’ll have fun with the fact that it’s my last season.” Deciding to leave the show is as simple as “it just felt like time,” Bergeron insists. “I love the idea of making it was my call and not someone else’s, and of doing it in concert with the show’s 25th anniversary. “I’m a a fan of ‘Doctor Who,’ and they revitalize that show periodically by recasting the lead. I thought this was a perfect time, from almost a story-line standpoint, to pass it on to somebody else at the 25th anniversary to take it into the future.” Bob Saget (“Full House”) was the original host of “America’s Funniest Home Videos.” As for who will be next, Bergeron maintains he’s as curious as anyone. “Some of the auditions will be comedic, like the Muppets, and others will be legitimate. People are auditioning through videos they’re sending to the show now.” That’s appropriate for a program that has relied heavily on submissions from the public. Nothing guarantees an unknown will be Bergeron’s eventual successor, but he recognizes that option is a valid one. “The show is the videos,” he asserts. “I use a really old reference to describe how I’ve approached it: It’s like Martin and Lewis. I’m like a tone-deaf Dean Martin in setting up the videos, which are the Jerry Lewis. That’s really thanks to the writers, though. My sense of humor is much more on display on ‘Dancing With the Stars.’ ” Bergeron’s last SCOTT BAKULA OF ‘NCIS: NEW ORLEANS’ ON CBS Q: With “NCIS: New Orleans” carrying forward another TV brand, how do you assess your ride through the medium that also has yielded such shows as “Star Trek: Enterprise” and “Quantum Leap”? I’ve been really lucky. There are very few places on this planet that I can go without somebody recognizing me. It used to be the countries where “Quantum Leap” was playing, but when you added the “Star Trek” side to it, that pretty much rounded it out. Now, with this ... this is the No. 1 franchise in the world, and I’ve never been associated with anything of that magnitude. “Star Trek” was years of building, but I have relatives in England and Germany who say. “Oh, you have no idea how much ‘NCIS’ is loved over here. And everybody loves New Orleans, so there, you’ve got it.” Do you worry that three “NCIS” shows being on at once can overextend the brand? There’s the little voice in the back of my head that asks, “Is three one too many?” That’s not on me to worry about. I did the movie “Major League: Back to the Minors,” and that was the third one in that franchise. I’d been offered a few sequels and had always said “no,” but my agent told me to go meet the director of that one, and he was a really good guy. It didn’t do particularly well, but I didn’t regret the experience. At the end of the day, I can’t be trying to figure the odds in this business. Anyone who could do that would be a mega-mega-billionaire. ‘Funniest’ season BEST SITCOMS STARRING COMICS BY GEORGE DICKIE “The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show” (CBS, 1950-58) By the time this show hit the air in 1950, Burns and Allen were stars in their own right thanks to their 1920s vaudeville act and a 1930s-40s radio show. The catalyst for much of the comedy came from daffy Allen’s misadventures with neighbor Blanche (Bea Benaderet), which annoyed Blanche’s husband, Harry (played by several actors), but provided Burns with fodder to philosophize in asides to the camera. The show was still popular when it ended in 1958 thanks to Allen’s decision to retire. Jerry Seinfeld Bill Cosby George Burns 12 “The Cosby Show” (NBC, 1984-92) Bill Cosby’s riffs and theories on parenthood and child-rearing were at the center of this family sitcom that provided plenty of laughs for the adults in the audience. He starred as Dr. Cliff Huxtable, an obstetrician practicing out of his Manhattan brownstone, which he shared with wife Clair (Phylicia Rashad) and five children (Sabrina Le Beauf, Lisa Bonet, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Tempestt Bledsoe and Keshia Knight Pulliam). The show kicked off NBC’s “Must-See TV” Thursday nights that were a ratings juggernaut for the better part of two decades. “Seinfeld” (NBC, 1990-98) A no-brainer and undoubtedly the definitive sitcom of the 1990s. Jerry Seinfeld brought his stand-up act to television as a comedian named Jerry Seinfeld, who plied his trade in New York clubs while hanging out with a group of quirky friends (Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Michael Richards). If the show’s 10 Emmys and long life in syndication isn’t testament enough to the show’s greatness, the endurance of such catchphrases as “no soup for you,” “master of my domain” and “spongeworthy” is. “The Drew Carey Show” (ABC, 1995-2004) Crew-cutted comic Carey was co-creator and star of this sitcom set in his hometown of Cleveland, in which he played himself as a downtrodden department-store employee whose pastimes included drinking beer with friends (Deidrich Bader, Ryan Stiles, Christa Miller), fighting with a cartoonish coworker (Kathy Kinney) and striking out with the opposite sex. It also featured future talk-show host Craig Ferguson as Drew’s boss and, in earlier seasons, a memorable opening credits sequence set to the Vogues’ “Five O’Clock World.” Echo News # ABC < UNI & NBC TELE 0 PBS * CBS (307) WGN-A FOX .

BY MIKE MARIN in TV theme songs Time to broach two of my favorite topics: television theme songs and uncultured young people. Odds are, if you mention the phrase “Khrushchev’s due at Idlewild” to anyone under the age of 40, they will have no clue what you are talking about. (And, yes, for my purposes, anyone under the age of 40 is a “young people.”) By now, they have long since forgotten the high school history class where they learned Nikita Khrushchev was the Russian president during the Cuban missile crisis back in the early ‘60s. I’ll bet my more “mature” readers instantly recognized the penultimate line from one of the best TV theme songs of all time, “Car 54 Where Are You?” (“There’s a holdup in 18 The Bronx, Brooklyn’s broken out in fights. There’s a traffic jam in Harlem that’s backed up to Jackson Heights. There’s a scout troop short a child ... .”) Theme songs from the ‘60s and ‘70s were so much more memorable than those of today. If anyone can think of any themes from this century that are half as catchy and popular as “Gilligan’s Island” or “The Beverly Hillbillies,” please let me know. And, forgive me in advance for getting this next one stuck in your head, but can you spy a boy and his dad walking down to the fishing hole without starting to whistle the theme from “The Andy Griffith Show”? Not as well-known, but my favorite theme song ever was “Best Friend” from “The Courtship of Eddie’s Father” starring the late (great) Bill Bixby. That song, by the hugely under-appreciated Harry Nilsson, fit perfectly with the charm of that show. (“People let me tell you ‘bout my best friend. He’s a warm-hearted person who’ll love me ‘til the end.”) Oh, in case it has been driving you crazy, Idlewild was the original name of Kennedy Airport in New York.
