The Japanese Paradise-flycatcher (Terpsiphone atrocaudata), also called the Black Paradise-flycatcher, is mainly migratory and breeds in shady mature deciduous or evergreen broadleaf forest of Japan (southern Honshū, Shikoku, Kyushu and the Nansei Shoto islands), South Korea, Taiwan (including Lanyu island) and the far north Philippines. It is a non-breeding visitor to mainland China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, and Sumatra, Indonesia.
There are three subspecies, the nominate T. a. atrocaudata which breeds through most of Japanese/Korean range, T. a. illex which is resident in the Ryukyu Islands, and T. a. periophthalmica restricted to Lanyu Island off southeast Taiwan.
John Dering acquired the Pluckley Manor of Surrenden through his marriage to Christian Haut.
They had two sons, and he died in 1425. Christian died about 1473 having remarried Reynold Dryland. The eldest son Richard married twice, his second marriage to Agnes Eyton produced four sons and two daughters. He died in 1481.
The eldest son John then married Julian Darrell. They had two daughters and two sons, the eldest Nicholas married Alice Bettenham and died in 1517. The other son Richard, was Lieutenant of Dover Castle, and the five ports under five Lord wardens, and died in 1556. Nicholas had four daughters and one son John, who married Margaret Brent. They had nine children including Richard Dering who died in 1612 aged 82. He married Margaret Twysden, they had five sons, Anthony, Thomas, Twysden, George, and Edward.
Anthony the eldest son, married twice, firstly Mary Goring, they had a daughter Jane who died in 1607. Anthony secondly married Frances Bell and they had six sons and two daughters, the eldest son was Edward. Anthony died in 1636 aged 78.
Many of the Dering Brasses were forgeries, or certainly "alterations" by Sir Edward Dering in the 17th C. in an effort to enhance his lineage.
The Summerhouse at Eyton-on-Severn is the survivor of a pair of banqueting towers built in the garden of Eyton Hall at the turn of the seventeenth century for Sir Francis Newport. It consists of two joined octagons in stone and brick, the smaller containing a spiral staircase. Originally the ground floor with its arches would have been an open loggia; the room above would have been used during banquets and entertainments, perhaps for guests to admire and eat fanciful sweetmeats.
Eyton Hall was destroyed by fire in the eighteenth century. The other tower was included in a georgian house and was lost when that too burned (the house was rebuilt but not the tower).
The eastern tower survived in an increasing state of decay until restored in the 1980s by the Vivat Trust, a small charity that preserves historic buildings by letting them as self-catering holiday accommodation.
I spent a very pleasurable week in the Summerhouse.
The diminutive church of All Saints at Eyton lies a couple of miles to the northwest of Leominster and is one of Herefordshire's more humble churches.
The building is a simple nave and chancel with no structural division and only a small bellcote piercing roof level. The real surprise is to be found within, a remarkable 15th century rood screen complete with an enormous coving that would have supported the rood loft.
The church is generally kept open and welcoming to visitors.

This is the fourth in a series of Brussels events on various aspects of energy R&D policy organized by Science|Business with the support of BP.
The academic policy symposium was hosted by the Norwegian mission to the EU in Brussels, on 27 April 2012.

The European Union is betting big on carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies as part of its strategic energy roadmap to 2020. Ten to 12 demonstration projects are envisioned under the EU’s Strategic Energy Technologies (SET Plan), requiring an investment of up to €16 billion. But lack of funds and a comprehensive planning framework have stalled the projects. Europe now risks missing its target of making these technologies commercially viable by 2020.
What policy measures would give industry the confidence to invest in these costly demonstration projects and help Europe regain its lost momentum? What lessons can be drawn from the innovation policy approach to CCS in the US and China, which are outpacing Europe in this crucial field? And what kind of research results will help assure a skeptical European public that carbon capture and storage is a safe enough bet?
This high-level roundtable discussion will focus on the research needed to tackle a range of technology issues, particularly around CO2 storage offshore and safety monitoring, as well as the path to developing an overarching commercial framework for CCS to encourage private investment.
This is the fourth in a series of Brussels events on various aspects of energy R&D policy organized by Science|Business with the support of BP. A report of the conclusions will be published, as a contribution to the policy debate in Europe over this vital set of technologies for a sustainable energy future.

Kathyn Williams was a very popular actress of the early silent films. She starred in the the first cliffhanger serial, The Adventures of Kathlyn. Her second husband was New Zealander Charles Eyton, general manager of Paramount.
Kathlyn's only child, a son from a previous marriage, died from influenza the year before this passport photo was taken. She and Charles were escaping from Hollywood on a tour of the Far East.
In 1949, Kathlyn Williams lost her leg in a car accident that also took the life of a good friend. She died in 1960.
Ellen wife of Rev Hugh Matthie, rector, 1836 aged 28 . She was the second daughter of George Edward Dale esq of Liverpool. Also Rev Hugh Matthie 1843 aged 39 - Their 5 month son Hugh Dale Lymburner who died in 1833 has a memorial here www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/7509345724/
Hugh became rector in 1831 and soon after pulled down and rebuilt the rectory at his own expense costing £1700 . An excellent preacher ; although he was addicted to thumping the cushion, and on one occasion he knocked over one of the brass candle-holders, on which he said, in a very audible aside, " There goes the candlestick," and then quietly continued. As long as he was in health he
much liked in the parish for his kindness and attention to the poor. Dying in 1843 he was
succeeded by the Rev. Charles Wynne Eyton
