Designed and outfitted with the latest equipment and features based on a design by RKJ, Inc. subcontractor construction team. Wrightson, Johnson, Haddon and Williams Theater Consultants, the same company that designed the Majestic Theatre in San Antonio, contributed design concepts as well. Husband-and-wife theatre veterans Steve Smith and Nicole Coppinger brought their thespian background and insight to the project. The team proposed the theatre as the new home of the Army Soldier, and it will also play host to Operation Rising Star, USA Express, and concerts from touring music and entertainment stars.
Smith, technical director for the Army Soldier Show, has 20 years' experience in professional theatre and got his start working in Army Entertainment at Ft. Gordon. Coppinger, set designer for the Soldier Show, received her bachelor's degree in fine arts and has worked on Broadway in New York City. They worked with RKJ Construction, Inc., IMCOM Force Management Division and the Army Corps of Engineers to ensure that the new theatre would meet the standards necessary for a comprehensive training venue for budding artists and a Broadway-caliber theatre.
At the same time, all parties took great care to ensure that the front part of the original theatre, which contains the stage, main lobby, ticket box, original entrance and facade and VIP seating were restored to their authentic 1927 look. The carpet, paint, furniture, wood etching and silk banners hanging from the ceiling will all be restored or replicated as closely to the original as possible.
The project, which cost $18 million, started in early 2009 and will be completed in September 2011.

Castle Park
Cēsis Castle Park`s hills and ravines, cultural and historical monuments located in one small place made this the most favourable location for the successful creation of the park landscape more than 170 years ago. When forming landscape parks in Europe and Vidzeme other nobles also ordered artificial ruins to be built. Within Count`s Carl Gustav von Sievers territory, there already existed, Cēsis Castle stone ruins which were built during the reign of the Livonian Order, 14th – 16th century, naturally formed part of the park’s landscape created during 1832 – 1833. In addition to the ruins ancient Riekstu hill’ s silhouette (10th – 13th century), Cēsis manor buildings (18th – 19th century), 19th century brewery – predecessor of modern “Cēsis Beer” (Cēsu Alus), and Transfiguration of Christ Orthodox Church (consecrated in 1845) where Castle Park founder`s and his family cemetery is located, also became an integral part of the park’s scenery .From the western edge of the park, overlooking the city’s modern skyline there are hospital buildings, terraced houses and apartment blocks.
5 _pils parksAccording to the period and fashion, the Castle Park was designed by the castle-owner K.G. von Sievers (1772-1856) as a family recreation area with promenades. Riekstu hill was also included in the park, but the adjacent castle ruins and the mirror reflection of the pond created the necessary romantic mood. The description of Cēsis in the book “The Baltic provinces” (1841) J. Kols pointed to it as a favourite destination, “Students of Tartu, whose promised Land is Cēsis, frequently make trips on foot during summertime. Like Goethe followers to Harz, Heidelberg people to Odenwald and Breslaw people to Carpathians.”
14._Pils parksIn the mid 19th century the northern part of the park was included in the castle-landlords family walking route which also overlooked fields and a recreational area. The Park’s redevelopment plan, showed benches, gazebos and a patio. The Castle Park creators gave specific place names for the castle park objects. Carl Hill near the pond was named in honour of the castle park creator Count Carl Gustav von Sievers. In 1908 his son Emanuel Sievers placed a bronze bust podium of Count Carl Gustaf von Sievers inscribed with his gallantry during the Napoleonic War (1812-1814) and Castle Manor development. Other places Carl Gustav devoted to his closest family members: Charlotte Island – in honour of his sister, Anna gates – sister; Alexander Hill – son, Minadora Hill with benches, and later with an arbour – daughter; Emanuel hill with terrace – son, resting places with benches he devoted to his daughter Sophie, her husband Gudim-Levkovich and granddaughter Sophie. He also created a viewing platform and benches on Rieksu hill devoting them to Minadora’s husband Muhanov, father`s cousin Elizabeth Ikskil. The park was a pleasant family garden haven, safe from townspeople’s curiosity – protected with a fence around the park. However, the park could be visited by travellers. In May 1874 Anton Birzgalis saw “that pond and that water, which also has two swans.” K. Bedeker’s guide “Russland” (1904) noted that for visiting the park and ruins, travellers have to pay 20 kopeck. It is thought that in the evening the park gates were closed and locked.
13._Pils parksParks became freely available to visitors and residents of Cēsis after Russian Tsar’s resignation from the throne in February 1917. From the 1920s until now, song festivals, theatre performances, concerts and balls have taken place. In the 1930s there were demonstrations of figure skating and ice skating for local people. Children enjoyed feeding the ducks and swans and sledging on steep slopes of the park.
19._Pils parksFrom 1935 the City Council took over the maintenance and improvement of the park. Steps were built as a safe passage to the pond (J. Rozenberg’s project). They are complemented by sculptor’s R. Āboltiņs travertine sculptures – figures of children at the step’s edges. At one end of the steps sculptor K. Jansons’ sculptures were installed. During the tourism campaign “Travel native land!” in 1936 a souvenir kiosk was built, which has remained unchanged in appearance until now. A small stage was built in 1938, it was extended in the 1960s. Also, the upper part of the steps were built in the 1960s. Also, in 1960s A. Jansons’ sculpture “Man with a catfish” was installed.
Pils_parksThe park is still a favourite relaxation place for local people and visitors. The Latvian National Opera performances, Imants Kalniņš music concerts and Art festival are an indispensable event of the park and have become part of the Cēsis culture brand.

Cēsis (German: Wenden, Livonian: Venden, Estonian: Võnnu, Polish: Kieś) is a town in Latvia located in the northern part of the Central Vidzeme Upland. Cēsis is on the Gauja River valley, and is built on a series of ridges above the river overlooking the woods below. Cēsis was one of the candidate cities for the title of European Capital of Culture 2014.

The planning of the town of Cēsis was done in the second half of the 13th century. The market place with a church was in the centre of the town. The centre of housing was the stone castle of the Livonian Order with its three fortified towers. The town was also encircled by a dolomite stone wall with eight towers and five gates. Buildings from the Middle Ages include St. John's Church (built 1281–1284), the ruins of the Order's castle, Cēsis Castle and fortification walls, fragments of which can still be seen at Vaļņu iela and Palasta iela. In addition, ancient road networks and building plots have survived from medieval times, although many of the buildings themselves have been ruined (the last destroyed in 1748). 18th century buildings can be seen at 16 and 25 Rīgas iela, while houses built in the first part of the 19th century are at 15 and 47 Rīgas iela, 6 Gaujas iela, and other streets.
Cēsis was occupied by the Swedish king Gustavus Adolphus in 1621 during the Polish–Swedish War.
In the second half of the 19th century, the construction of the Rīga-Pskov highway (1868) and the Rīga-Valka railway line (1889) accelerated the development of the town. Raunas iela, leading from the railway station to the Old Town, was developed as a wide, presentable street with the Latvian Society House at 10 Raunas iela (architect Augusts Malvess), the Building of the Regional Court at 14 Raunas iela (architect P. Mengelis), and other important buildings.
The Battle of Cēsis in June 1919, when Estonian and Latvian forces defeated the Germans, was one of the decisive battles in the Latvian War of Independence.
Cēsis was also developed as a health resort. Upmarket summer houses and health centres were built in the vicinity of the Gauja. 'Cīrulīši' near the Svētavots (Holy Spring) Cave is the most remarkable of them, with a spring believed to possess healing powers.

Ambulance Collection Complete!
With 4 final additions, my SAS/Emergency Healthcare collection is complete and has representation from 1990-present day. (I’m not bothered about modelling Special Operations “SORT”).
1. Vauxhall Astra represents SAS Paramedic Response Units during the 2000’s. This rounds off my PRU fleet with representations of the 90’s, 00’s, 2010’s up to present day.
2. Privately owned BMW X5, as BASICS Scotland/Sandpiper Responder. Although difficult to see, there are BASICS sticker on the front and rear windows and has green warning lights. BASICS stands for British Association for Immediate Care. I’ve also painted a figure to a BASICS flight suit and hi-vis jacket. Red epaulettes or hi-vis typically identifies Doctors, however now seems to denote any Senior Clinician on scene. - www.sandpipertrust.org/#what-we-do - basicsscotland.org.uk/about-us/
3. SAS affiliated Community First Responder Volvo XC90. With half Battenburg ambulance style markings, but no emergency lighting or siren system, similarly to the Doctor on Green lights, they have no exemptions to Road Traffic laws and neither can exceed speed limits or go through red traffic lights.
4. Blood Transfusion Service emergency vehicle. This model is intended to represent both Transfusion services and “Blood Bike” charity groups.
Jack Copland established Scotland’s first blood transfusion service in 1930 with his teenage son taking calls and driving donors to hospital. SNBTS have a small fleet of blue light equipped vehicles, their drivers trained by the Scottish Ambulance Service, in fact we had 2 SNBTS staff on my blue light training course.
In addition to great overall wear with marks and holes, the seams have ripped out under one arm leaving a big hole. I got this jersey from Rauman Lukko with a L.O.A in Finnish. Thanks to Janne Sarno for acquiring it and shipping it to me.
In addition to lomolizing your iPhone, I found that using Diana+ wide angle viewfinder as an iPhone add-on lens not only improves close-up quality, it even allows me to create double exposure effect as well as kaleidoscope effect.
If you look at the Diana+ viewfinder in detail, you'll see a top window collecting light for the cross hair seen through the viewfinder. By prying open the top window, you will be able to remove the cross hair film and replace it with anything you like, such as your negative/positive film, a painted transparent film etc, thereby creating an overlay or double exposure effect when the viewfinder is used to take shots.
In the above example, I used negative films cut into pieces and put them inside the top window compartment to create a kaleidoscope effect. This create unique imagery for every shot you take, simply shake the viewfinder before you take a shot.
The fun thing about this effect is that you can control the amount of light entering from the viewfinder's top window by using just your finger to make shade. So you get to control how much the kaleidoscope effect is showing in your image, the more light you allow from viewfinder's top, the more dominant the kaleidoscope effect is. If you completely cover the viewfinder's top, you will get a clear image of what your iPhone camera is pointing at. Isn't it amazing? WYSIWYG!
Another way to play with the viewfinder is to replace the cross hair film by a transparent film painted with colors. I found it interesting to dab black pigment ink on one side of the film and then colors from markers on the other side. This method gives you enough dim light (because the black pigment blocks light from viewfinder's top) to show your target image, yet allowing enough colored light to get through. Again, placing your finger on viewfinder's top allows you to control the image blend, compare the image above the two below to see the extremes.
Finally, instead of using iPhone's built-in camera software, I'd suggest you to try Snapture, which allows you to create sapphire/negative effects and has a timer feature so that you can save one finger in order to hold your iPhone + viewfinder more securely :)

Although articles in the Liverpool Catholic Herald confirm its acquisition by the Church before June 1903, and that the first children would arrive within “a week or two” of 21 August 1903, the purchase of Greenfield House and its opening as a home for deprived Catholic children seem to have been accomplished without any great fanfare. For the particulars I am forced to rely mainly on a photocopied extract at Garswood Library from an unidentified Catholic directory of about 1920:
“On January 9th,1903, through the medium of Dean Powell*, it was agreed to purchase Greenfield House and 16 acres of land for a Poor-Law school. The price for the house was £1650 and for the land £675; total £2325. On April 6 the purchase was concluded. Extensive alterations and additions were then entrusted to Mr Walker, contractor, of Preston. The care of the institution was committed to the Sisters of Charity [of Our Lady, Mother or Mercy]. The Sisters entered into occupation on August 12, and on September 3 the first detachment of children, 23 in number, arrived. The children attend Birchley School. On the 24th of April [1907] the Sisters of Charity of St Paul undertook the management of the institution...”
From other sources we learn that Greenfield House was certified to receive pauper children from 10 August 1903, 51 being then transferred from Kirkdale Industrial Schools during September-October 1903.
The above drawings of “proposed additions” to Greenfield House were submitted to Billinge and Winstanley UDC on behalf of the School Trustees in or about 1902. The document is preserved at St Helens Local History & Archives Library, ref. BWC/6157.
*“Dean Powell” was Austin Powell, VF JP, priest-in-charge at St Mary's, Birchley, from 1872 until his death there in 1910.

The west facing end of the house was getting very hot in the afternoons through to evening, and would flood during rains, so we had a canopy built and we installed an outside kitchen for outside dining.
Soak your feet in vinegar for 15 minutes. In addition to helping us relax our feet and minimize cracks and corns, baths with apple cider vinegar are a great remedy to stop fungal infections The vinegar is an element that we can find in all the pantries. In addition to its normal applications in the kitchen, we use it to clean and deodorize our home and also, because of its medicinal properties, we use it as an ingredient in effective home remedies. It is also an excellent alternative to treat some foot problems. Its properties range from relieving tired feet or eliminating cracks in the heels to treating some ailments and types of fungus. Benefits of soaking your feet in vinegar The most used and effective in foot baths is white vinegar, although apple cider is also very useful in alleviating some problems. This bath should be done daily for about ten days. It will promptly relieve the itching and peeling caused by the athlete's foot. #Does It Work?

Standing on its nose, clipped to a pencil holder. I've put Envirotex Light into the instrument panel. The bezels are nice recesses, good for this sort of thing (but not for adding decals, unfortunately. Envirotex Light takes 24 hours to fully cure, but will be solid yet still tacky by 24 hours. Try to keep it away from dust at this point.
