The ADO16 (Amalgamated Drawing Office project number 16) was designed by Alec Issigonis following his success with the Mini, Issigonis set out to design a larger and more sophisticated car which incorporated more advanced features and innovations. In common with the Mini, the ADO16 was designed around the BMC A-Series engine, mounted transversely and driving the front wheels. As well as single piston swinging caliper disc brakes at the front, which were not common on mass-produced cars in the early 1960s, the ADO16 featured a Hydrolastic interconnected fluid suspension system designed by Alex Moulton. BMC engineer Charles Griffin took over development work from Issigonis at the end of the 1950s while Issigonis completed work on the Mini. Griffin ensured the 1100 had high levels of refinement, comfort and presentation.
The Mark 1 was launched in 1962 initially as a 1100 (1098cc) four door Austin and Morris and was joined in Novemver 1965 by the Morris 1100 Traveller or the Austin 1100 Countryman. as the range expanded in accordance with the BMC badge engineering policy of the time MG Wolseley and Pricess badged models became available.
The Pricess came about by a happy accident, a ADO16 was luxuriously trimmed out and exhibited at the British Motorshow to showcase the skills of Vanden Plas craftsmen at Kingsbury. The showcar created so much interest that BMC decided to put it into production.
The Vanden Plas version continued beyond the Mark 1, but was later powered by a 1275cc version of the BMC A Series engine as the Vanden Plas 1300. All Vanden Plas cars were four door

This is a photograph from the East of Ireland Marathon Series Marathon which was held in Longwood Village, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday 25th January 2014 at 09:00. There were 75 participants in the marathon which completed 8 loops of a 5KM route (and a additional 2KM) with Longwood GAA club acting as Race Headquarters, Start, Finish, and refreshments area. The weather turned particularly nasty for about an hour and the participants were lashed with gale-force winds, severe hailstones, and then rain. However this didn't stop everyone enjoying the day. Thanks to the folks at Longwood GAA who provided excellent hospitality and facilities for all participants. There was a great atmosphere at the race and everyone enjoyed another trip to the countryside for an EOIM.
Despite the weather there were a few PBs and fast inidividual times. The course is a nice fast flat 5KM loop. It is used every year as the Longwood GAA 5KM Road Race (see links below). The marathon loop followed the reverse of the race route for safety reasons as the roads were fully opened for the EOIM event. There is a total elevation gain of 20ft and an elevation loss of 23ft. The sources of elevation gain are only very small rises on the road and aren't really noticeable. Part of the route includes a kilometer on a boreen which is nicely sheltered and with good road surface. The road surface is excellent for the entire route. There were some puddles and mud on the boreen section of the route due to agricultural traffic.
Thanks must be extended to the Longwood GAA club and committee for the use of their fine facilities which allowed participants to have some refreshments afterwards and hot showers and changing rooms were also available.
This is the second East of Ireland Marathon Series race which has been held outside Dublin. The previous race which was held outside Dublin was held in Stapelstown, Co. Kildare in September 2013. (See links to pictures on Flickr from that race). Whilst Longwood is a rural venue it is easily accessible from all parts of Ireland due to it's close proximity to the N4 and the M4 Motorways.
We have an extensive set of photographs from today's event on the following Flickr Photoset Page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157640099311556/

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

There were 75 participants in the marathon which completed 8 loops of a 5KM route (and a additional 2KM) with Longwood GAA club acting as Race Headquarters, Start, Finish, and refreshments area. The weather turned particularly nasty for about an hour and the participants were lashed with gale-force winds, severe hailstones, and then rain. However this didn't stop everyone enjoying the day. Thanks to the folks at Longwood GAA who provided excellent hospitality and facilities for all participants. There was a great atmosphere at the race and everyone enjoyed another trip to the countryside for an EOIM.
Despite the weather there were a few PBs and fast inidividual times. The course is a nice fast flat 5KM loop. It is used every year as the Longwood GAA 5KM Road Race (see links below). The marathon loop followed the reverse of the race route for safety reasons as the roads were fully opened for the EOIM event. There is a total elevation gain of 20ft and an elevation loss of 23ft. The sources of elevation gain are only very small rises on the road and aren't really noticeable. Part of the route includes a kilometer on a boreen which is nicely sheltered and with good road surface. The road surface is excellent for the entire route. There were some puddles and mud on the boreen section of the route due to agricultural traffic.
Thanks must be extended to the Longwood GAA club and committee for the use of their fine facilities which allowed participants to have some refreshments afterwards and hot showers and changing rooms were also available.
This is the second East of Ireland Marathon Series race which has been held outside Dublin. The previous race which was held outside Dublin was held in Stapelstown, Co. Kildare in September 2013. (See links to pictures on Flickr from that race). Whilst Longwood is a rural venue it is easily accessible from all parts of Ireland due to it's close proximity to the N4 and the M4 Motorways.
We have an extensive set of photographs from today's event on the following Flickr Photoset Page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157640099311556/
Tell me more about the East of Ireland Marathon Series
This race event was part of the East of Ireland Marathon Series. The East Of Ireland Marathon Series aims to make marathons affordable and convienient for the runners of Ireland. The series organisers aim to promote marathon running and to make the process as stress free and enjoyable as possible. All courses are measured to full AAI standards and have a minimum of 10 Entrants. The marathons are self sufficent to a degree although there are limited supplies of water available on the day of the race. There will be no extra frills like chip timing and finish gantrys. However all finishing times are accurately and officially recorded and each marathon counts as an official marathon. Overall, this approach to marathon organisation helps to keep the price down and allows these races to be run in as an economically affordable manner as possible. The East of Ireland Marathon series is all inclusive and welcomes runners who are new to marathon running as well as experienced veterans. So if you are thinking of your 1st marathon, your 10th marathon, or your 100th the East of Ireland Marathon Series will provide a very friendly and low-cost environment for to become part of Ireland's marathon running community.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
Officially opened to the public on July 28, 1985, the entire park includes a farm, a large forest and a mansion now called the Patterson House which was first constructed in 1857 by the farm's original owner, George Washington Patterson.
Patterson called his estate "Ardenwood", after the forested area in England mentioned in Shakespeare's play, As You Like It. There were two subsequent additions to the house. The largest was in 1889 when Patterson and his wife Clara added the Queen Anne Victorian section to the House. The second addition came in 1915 when Patterson's son Henry and his wife remodeled the old farm house section, and added rooms including the kitchen, a large bedroom above the kitchen, the sun porch, nursery, and a bathroom with indoor plumbing.[1]
A feature of the park is the Railroad Museum at Ardenwood which operates a horse-drawn railway, a recreation of a historic local branch of the South Pacific Coast Railroad. The museum has a collection of narrow gauge railroad cars and other artifacts of 19th. century railroading.
The park hosts many events, a Celtic festival,[2] an Independence Day celebration, the Washington Township Railroad Fair on Labor Day, a Renaissance Faire in September,[3] The Harvest Festival in October, a Zydeco concert, and many Halloween celebrations, complete with a haunted railroad. Among other crops, in the fall the farm harvests a large pumpkin patch.
ca. 1911
Includes the Rev. and Mrs. D. Gunson, Mrs. Tweedale, Mrs. P. C. Higgins, Mrs. Collins, Mr. S. Wilson, Mr. Frank Apted, Mrs. Roebuck, Miss Lily Wright, Mrs. Mercer, Misses Gwladys and Gwen Apted, Jessie Gunson, K. Higgins. The four boy are Harold Wright, David Gunson, Jack Gunson and Alec Gunson. The two small girls are Mable Gunson and (probably) Florence Wright.

As always NEoN celebrates its festival with a late night party. Acts include Plastique Fantastique, Verity Brit & Musician U, Fallope & The Tubes and Resident DJ RHL. With a pop up bar and performances amongst our large group exhibition the vast factory space West Ward Works, this night promises to be a visual audible delight.
Plastique Fantastique (UK)
A performance fiction envisaged as a group of human and non-human avatars delivering communiqués from the past and the future. The communiqués are channelled through installations, writing, comics and sound and moving image work and performances, addressing technology, popular and mass media and sacred cultures and also human-machine animals and non-human entities and agents. Over several years, numerous people have produced Plastique Fantastique but there is also a core group producing the performance fiction. Plastique Fantastique was first presented by David Burrows and Simon O’Sullivan and developed with long-term collaborators Alex Marzeta and Vanessa Page, and more recently with Mark Jackson. For NE0N 2017, this group will call forth and trap a bit-coin-fairy-spirit to ask it seems questions. The performance – Plastique Fantastique Protocols for the Society for Cutting Up Mun-knee-snakers (S.C.U.M.): I-Valerie-Solaris-AKA-@32ACP-Amazon.co.uk-recommends-‘Pacific-Rim’ may/may-not shoot b1t-c0in-f@iry-sp1r1t) – uses drone-folk-songs, moving image projection, reliquaries and ritual to manifest the block-chain-spirit.
David Burrows, Alex Marzeta, Vanessa Page and Mark Jackson will be performing.
Rites of the Zeitgeber, Verity Brit & Musician ‘U’ (UK)
9 channel video installation, live score performed by musician ‘U’
The Zeitgeber (‘time giver’ or ‘synchroniser’) is honoured by a triadic henge of stacked CRT monitors in which past durations collide with future vacuums. Strange extra-terrestrial topographies are traversed across geological time and the internet. Curious substances are unearthed and lost languages resurrected. Fragments from Mina Loy, J. G. Ballard and Henri Bergson emerge amongst an archaeology of media from Super 8, VHS, to HD. Time bends from matter, history is up-set and the clock is obsolete.
Verity Birt an artist based in London. She studied an MA in Moving Image at the Royal College of Art (2013–2015) and BA in Art Practice at Goldsmiths University of London (2008–2011). She is involved with collaborative research groups; The Future is a Collective Project, Reconfiguring Ruins and a founding member of women artists collective Altai. This summer, Verity was artist in residence at BALTIC and The Newbridge Project in Newcastle. Previous exhibitions include: Our House of Common Weeds; Res. Gallery, London (2017); Relics from the De-crypt | Gossamer Fog Gallery London (2017), Altai in Residence, Experiments in Collective Practice, Dyson Gallery, London (2017); Chemhex Extract, Peacock Visual Arts, Aberdeen (2016); Feeling Safer, IMT Gallery, London and Gallery North, New York (2016); Come to Dust, Generator Projects, Dundee (2016)
Fallopé & The Tubes (UK)
A weirdo-punk performance band. Each live show features live humans! film and visuals! costumes! sculpture! visual props! and music/a sequence of sounds!
Fallopé and The Tubes is a fluctuating live musical and performative event with contributions from Sarah Messenger, Ruby Pester, Nadia Rossi, Rachel Walker, Catherine Weir, Emma McIntyre and Skye Renee Foley. The group are made up of Scottish based artists and musicians that are also filmmakers, festival organisers, librarians, boatbuilders and more who work collaboratively to devise live performances. Drawing influence from a wide range of fringe and mainstream musical genres, exploring sexuality, elements of social satire, self promotion and leftist political ideologies.
The group was established in January 2014 at Insriach Bothy, Aviemore and have developed their practice during numerous residency experiences across Scotland. By living and working together ‘off grid’ the group have developed experimental techniques to create a collective energy. Fallopé & The Tubes draw influence from a wide range of fringe and mainstream musical genres, as well as sexuality, elements of social satire and self promotion and leftist political ideologies. Soakin Records
DJ RHL (UK)
Resident NEoN DJ has been entertaining us since 2010. Djing for about 25 years, he predominately plays Techno but you often find him playing anything dance music related. Spinning old school vinyl sets containing an eclectic mix of old and new stuff. RHL just likes making people dance. Check here for past performances.
Accompanying DJ RHL is ‘The Wanderer‘ aka Naomi Lamb. Naomi works layers of diverse video loops into an ever evolving collage colours textures and shape and intuitively mixies visuals live. She improvises, freestyles and channels the room, customising the ephemeral moving collage in response to the tone of the happening.
For the past 20 years Naomi has been a prolific live video art performer utilising techniques and process that is often associated with the ever growing subculture of VJing and presents under the name of ‘The Wander’. Naomi has an intimate knowledge of not only the process of live video performance but also an wide reaching connections within the VJ community and has performed at many of the leading outdoor music and art festivals in New Zealand with a debut at two English Festivals this summer and she is super please for her first time mixing it up in Scotland to be at NEoN. “

Anna Bowness , Writer
Taking an evening strolling in Cabbagetown at Parliament and Carleton.
What is your most favourite place in the city? 1. Riverdale Farm 2. Parliament Street
What is it that you like about this location? 1. It's funny and confusing that there are cows and chickens so close to the DVP. 2. It's the most demographically confusing street in town.
Where is the best place to eat in the city? I'm pregnant, so everywhere.
What do you like about living in Toronto? It's optimistic and awkward at the same time, like a teenager. It feels like it wants everybody to help it grow up.
What do you hate about living in Toronto? It's almost impossible to get out -- the traffic is like a Berlin Wall.
Where would I find you on a lazy Sunday afternoon in the city? In Riverdale Park West -- this last Sunday there was a bulldog convention there, so I watched Cabbagetown's prize bulldogs drool on and try to mate with each other.
Who is your favourite Local Celebrity? Friends of mine, and the mayor.
Car, Bike or Transit? Normally: bike. Pregnant: transit.
I went to the island, one Sunday, with two boys I know. I think we were all hung over. We went to Hanlan's Point and swam in the cold lake and skipped stones and tried not to critique people's genetalia, and on our way back we ran into an enormous Hare Krishna recruitment picnic. They gave us free vegetarian food and kool-aid in paper cups (!) and we helped them dismantle a multi-mannequin display representing Hare Krishnas throughout the ages.
My Toronto includes cows, chickens, glowing, bright-white optimistic architecture, fetid Spadina bustle, sad, crashing ice-waves on the Spit in winter, the Neville Park loop, Hogg's Hollow, tragic wall murals in Flemingdon Park, the bright shock of city when the subway crosses the Don, tacky drinks at the Mendoza, wet Regent Park children under the brutalist water feature, BCE Place, ferry lineups, trees, ravines at night, hills, straight lines, irate psychopaths, Dundas Square, Parliament Street, squirrels, the blue sky of my parents' 1970s Crombie-era city when the CN Tower was still a shaft without a bulb and hippies lived in Yorkville.
This heritage walk in old Delhi includes sampling some of the street food. We started our walking tour at one of the biggest and most popular mosques in Asia, Jama Masjid. It was built in mid-seventeenth century by the Mughal Emperor Shahjahan. It is built on a hillock, high above rest of the ground & gives an excellent view of the surrounding busy market streets. The trail follows the main street of Chawri Bazaar. The first food stop on this walking tour is Jain Coffee House in Raghuganj grain market. This shop sells fruit sandwiches: of pineapple topped with pomegranate seeds; of cheeku with butter, mango with thinly sliced grapes & many more. The sandwiches not only taste great but are a treat for the eyes too. The differently coloured fruits make a tempting sight to look at. And the sandwiches go best with cold coffee or a fruit shake. A personal favourite is the samosa sandwich. Samosa is fried patty filled with boiled potatoes, peas & spices. We negotiated our way out of Raghuganj through a extremely narrow lane, back on to Chawri Bazaar. The next stop was a century old chaat shop- Hira Lal Chaat Bhandar. Delicious aalu chat and mind blowing kulle are the specialty here. Kulle are almost like cup cakes: the base is made of different fruits or vegetables like sweet potato, watermelon, orange, potato, cucumber & even banana, apple & mango. They are then topped with gram, pomegranate & a dash of lemon & spices. From here we visited gem of a monument, which few people would know of. There is hardly any information on Ruknuddaulah mosque. It was built during the time of Akbar Shah, the Mughal Emperor & is one of the prettiest mosques in Delhi. Further on, stands the Hauz Qazi mosque or Haji Qazi mosque. It is in bad shape today, its narrow entrance hidden behind shops in the busy old Delhi market. Hauz is a tank and Qazi is Muslim law giver. It is an active mosque built almost 300 years. Our next food stop was Daulat ki Chaat, a stark contrast to earlier spicy experience. This is a particular delicacy found prominently in this part of Old Delhi. The right proportion of milk, cream and butter with saffron flavoring makes it so soft and fluffy that it melts in mouth. At this point we left Chawri Bazaar to walk into Sita Ram Bazaar and then entered Kucha Pati Ram. Then was the halt at Kuremal Kulfi Wala which surprises its guests with mind boggling variety of fruit kulfis (ice creams). Name a fruit and they are ready to serve its kulfi for you! The final stop on our walking tour was a 19th century haveli which has been recently restored.

Then was the halt at Kuremal Kulfi Wala which surprises its guests with mind boggling variety of fruit kulfis (ice creams). Name a fruit and they are ready to serve its kulfi for you! The final stop on our walking tour was a 19th century haveli which has been recently restored.

Wet racing action during the Sussex Trophy, Goodwood Revival. Brave boys, as the race features the most powerful cars on the programme.
The original idea behind the "Streets Of Dublin Project" ( www.streetsofdublin.com ) was to document the changes taking place in the City Of Dublin but the scope of the project has been expanded to include other cities, towns and villages throughout Europe. Recently I had the opportunity to visit the city of Belfast. Next week I visit Cork and towards the end of May I hope to visit Limerick.
Belfast is currently experiencing a tourist boom, being one of the most visited cities in the UK, and the second most visited on the island of Ireland. In 2008, 7.1 million tourists visited the city. There are numerous popular tour bus companies and boat tours running throughout the year. To further enhance the tourist industry in Northern Ireland, the Belfast City Council is currently investing into the complete redevelopment of the Titanic Quarter, which is planned to consist of apartments, hotels, a riverside entertainment district, and a major Titanic-themed attraction. They also hope to invest in a new modern transport system for Belfast, with a cost of £250 million.
Belfast expanded very rapidly from being a market town to becoming an industrial city during the course of the 19th century. Because of this, it is less an agglomeration of villages and towns which have expanded into each other, than other comparable cities. The city expanded to the natural barrier of the hills that surround it, overwhelming other settlements. Consequently, the arterial roads along which this expansion took place (such as the Falls Road or the Newtownards Road) are more significant in defining the districts of the city than nucleated settlements. Belfast remains segregated by walls, commonly known as "peace lines", erected by the British Army after August 1969, and which still divide 14 districts in the inner city.
All the international guides report that the people are very friendly and the city is very safe compared to other cities so if you get a chance you must pay a visit.

Bark is the outermost layers of stems and roots of woody plants. Plants with bark include trees, woody vines, and shrubs. Bark refers to all the tissues outside of the vascular cambium and is a nontechnical term.[1] It overlays the wood and consists of the inner bark and the outer bark. The inner bark, which in older stems is living tissue, includes the innermost area of the periderm. The outer bark in older stems includes the dead tissue on the surface of the stems, along with parts of the innermost periderm and all the tissues on the outer side of the periderm. The outer bark on trees which lies external to the last formed periderm is also called the rhytidome.
Products used by people that are derived from bark include: bark shingle siding and wall coverings,[2] spices and other flavorings, tanbark for tannin, resin, latex, medicines, poisons, various hallucinogenic chemicals and cork. Bark has been used to make cloth, canoes, and ropes and used as a surface for paintings and map making.[3] A number of plants are also grown for their attractive or interesting bark colorations and surface textures or their bark is used as landscape mulch.
Holy Cross Church ( Bad Kreuznach)
Holy Cross Church
The Holy Cross Church is a Catholic church in Bad Kreuznach, Rhineland-Palatinate.
It is the headquarters of all the parishes in the area. This includes the parishes of St. Francis, St. Nicholas, St. Peter, St. Wolfgang and since January 2011 in a parish community Norheim, Exaltation, Bad Münster, Assumption and Hüffelsheim, Holy Guardian Angel.
Architectural History
Holy Cross was built in 1895-97 according to plans of the Mainz cathedral architect Ludwig Becker in the Gothic Revival style. Especially the color of the stones is striking that glow in a dark sandstone red. By 1921, the interior of the church was realized. This as well was oriented after the designs by the architect Ludwig Becker.
From 1921 to 1935, the equipment by further sculptures was supplemented. After the war the church which had suffered heavy damages between 1947-1949 was reconstructed. 1963, a vestry was added and the hospital chapel installed. Between 1969-72 the church was renovated from the outside. The interior most recently was renovated in 2006. On this occasion, damages on the tower balustrade were observed, which led in the years 2009-10 to further external refurbishments.
Architecture
The Holy Cross Church is a Gothic three-aisled hall church with a wide but short transept and narrow, three-bay aisles. The tall slender bell tower is set into the facade, two-storey oratorios flank the tower. The lively, foliated roofscape is made up of saddle and hipped roofs. A small roof turret marks the intersection of the nave and transept.
The nave merges into the wide chancel. The big crossing allows an unobstructed view to the altar. Columns and pointed arches of red sandstone support the reticulated vault.
The church has an organ loft.

The British, Canadian, South African, and ANZAC tradition includes either one or two minutes of silence at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month (11:00 a.m., 11 November), as that marks the time (in the United Kingdom) when the armistice became effective.
The Service of Remembrance in many Commonwealth countries generally includes the sounding of the "Last Post", followed by the period of silence, followed by the sounding of "The Rouse" (often mistakenly referred to as "Reveille"), and finished by a recitation of the "Ode of Remembrance". The "Flowers of the Forest", "O Valiant Hearts", "I Vow to Thee, My Country" and "Jerusalem" are often played during the service. Services also include wreaths laid to honour the fallen, a blessing, and national anthems.
The central ritual at cenotaphs throughout the Commonwealth is a stylized night vigil. The Last Post was the common bugle call at the close of the military day, and the Rouse was the first call of the morning. For military purposes, the traditional night vigil over the slain was not just to ensure they were indeed dead and not unconscious or in a coma, but also to guard them from being mutilated or despoiled by the enemy, or dragged off by scavengers. This makes the ritual more than just an act of remembrance but also a pledge to guard the honour of war dead. The act is enhanced by the use of dedicated cenotaphs (literally Greek for "empty tomb") and the laying of wreaths—the traditional means of signalling high honours in ancient Greece and Rome.
LIVERPOOL NOVEMBER 11th 2012
After high school she traveled to Japan and enrolled in the Kabuki acting school of the legendary Onoe Kikugoro VI. For four years she studied acting, dancing, shamisen, tea ceremony, flower arrangement, and narimono (percussion instruments). Since Kabuki includes dancing and acting, she was sent to the renowned Kabuki dancer and choreographer Fujima Kanjuro VI. Determined not to fail, she survived the rigors of training, overcoming obstacles including discrimination for being American born. Finally in 1938, she was bestowed the professional name of Fujima Kansuma and was granted permission by the legendary Kikugoro VI to dance his renowned Kagami Jishi (Mirror Lion Dance), an honor and privilege given only to exceptional students. She returned to the U.S. and just as she opened her first dance studio, her life and career were disrupted by World War II.
With the bombing of Pearl Harbor, she and her parents were taken to an Arkansas internment camp to live. There, with only a kimono, fan and one recording of Japanese music, she brought light and joy to a dark and dismal situation. Later, camp authorities allowed Madame Kansuma to travel to other camps to perform and teach Japanese dance. To this day, many still recall her performances of Urashima and Tange Sazen.
After the war, Madame Kansuma returned to Los Angeles and resumed her dancing and teaching career and began doing more and more choreography for a westernized audience. She has taught countless girls how to dance, 46 became her Natori, where they are granted professional names.
Her work to educate and build bridges between two cultures and nations was recognized by both the Japanese and American governments. In 1985, Japan awarded Madame Kansuma the Order of the Precious Crown, Apricot in recognition for her work in enhancing the appreciation of Japanese culture in the United States. The National Endowment for the Arts deemed her a National Heritage Fellow for the Arts in 1987, honoring her as a master traditional artist and recognizing her lifetime achievements and contributions totraditional arts heritage. In 2004, she was given the Japanese American National Museum’s Cultural Ambassador Award for her devotion to Japanese Classical Dance.
At 96, she continues to teach and choreograph and her legacy lives on through her students. Her troupe performed at the 1984 Olympics, Rose Parade and Disney Concert Hall and Music Center. They were also involved as choreography consultants and appeared as dance students in the Oscar winning movie “Memoirs of a Geisha.”
Madame Fujima Kansuzu
Madame Fujima Kansuzu, daughter of Madame Kansuma, has studied Japanese classical dance under her mother since she was three years old. She made her debut performance as Fujima Kansuzu at the Dorthy Chandler Pavilion, performing Kagami Jishi, the same dance her mother performed 76 years ago.
A graduate of the University of Southern California, she has performed at the Grand Kabuki Theater in Japan, and National Endowment for the Arts Heritage Fellowship Program when her mother was a recipient.
Madame Kansuzu has lectured on Kabuki dance and make-up at Pepperdine University, and performed in movies, television, and commercials.
She has choreographed for the Emmy award-winning show, “Young and the Restless,” and was a consultant and associate choreographer and dancer for “Memoirs of A Geisha.” Ziyi Zhang and Olympians Maia and Alex Shibutani have worked with Madame Kansuzu. She recently completed work on the upcoming movie, “Masterless.” She is married to Noriyoshi Tachibana and has three children, Jonathan, Taizo, and Miwa.
The Fujima Kansuma Dance School is over 75 years old and Artistic Director Madam Fujima Kansuma has been teaching the art of nihon buyo to more than five generations of students. She has been part of this Nisei Week Grand Parade since 1950.
She and her daughter, Fujima Kansuzu, choreographed this years “Soran Bushi” and “Hinode Ondo”, trying to maintain the traditional while making it attractive to the new generation. They selected a J-Pop favorite from EXILE and a modernized classic minyo from Sakamoto Fuyumi.
The Fujima Kansuma Dance School has performed at such high profile venues as the Hollywood Bowl as well as community events such as the annual Gardena Pioneer Project. They recently performed at the 30th anniversary celebration of the Japanese Garden and completed work on an upcoming faith based feature film Masterless.
Their hope is that the Nisei Week celebration continues to bring people of all backgrounds together to appreciate the beauty of Japanese culture.

The Grand Parade is one of the many events that take place during the Nisei Week Japanese Festival. Visit the Festival's official website for more information about one of the nation's longest running cultural festivals.
As always NEoN celebrates its festival with a late night party. Acts include Plastique Fantastique, Verity Brit & Musician U, Fallope & The Tubes and Resident DJ RHL. With a pop up bar and performances amongst our large group exhibition the vast factory space West Ward Works, this night promises to be a visual audible delight.
Plastique Fantastique (UK)
A performance fiction envisaged as a group of human and non-human avatars delivering communiqués from the past and the future. The communiqués are channelled through installations, writing, comics and sound and moving image work and performances, addressing technology, popular and mass media and sacred cultures and also human-machine animals and non-human entities and agents. Over several years, numerous people have produced Plastique Fantastique but there is also a core group producing the performance fiction. Plastique Fantastique was first presented by David Burrows and Simon O’Sullivan and developed with long-term collaborators Alex Marzeta and Vanessa Page, and more recently with Mark Jackson. For NE0N 2017, this group will call forth and trap a bit-coin-fairy-spirit to ask it seems questions. The performance – Plastique Fantastique Protocols for the Society for Cutting Up Mun-knee-snakers (S.C.U.M.): I-Valerie-Solaris-AKA-@32ACP-Amazon.co.uk-recommends-‘Pacific-Rim’ may/may-not shoot b1t-c0in-f@iry-sp1r1t) – uses drone-folk-songs, moving image projection, reliquaries and ritual to manifest the block-chain-spirit.
David Burrows, Alex Marzeta, Vanessa Page and Mark Jackson will be performing.
Rites of the Zeitgeber, Verity Brit & Musician ‘U’ (UK)
9 channel video installation, live score performed by musician ‘U’
The Zeitgeber (‘time giver’ or ‘synchroniser’) is honoured by a triadic henge of stacked CRT monitors in which past durations collide with future vacuums. Strange extra-terrestrial topographies are traversed across geological time and the internet. Curious substances are unearthed and lost languages resurrected. Fragments from Mina Loy, J. G. Ballard and Henri Bergson emerge amongst an archaeology of media from Super 8, VHS, to HD. Time bends from matter, history is up-set and the clock is obsolete.
Verity Birt an artist based in London. She studied an MA in Moving Image at the Royal College of Art (2013–2015) and BA in Art Practice at Goldsmiths University of London (2008–2011).

This guy had gone to great lengths with his outfit for the Goodwood Revival. I thought the message on the experi-mental plane was apt
Our itinerary today was designed to include many of the lesser known and visited temples of the Angkor archaeological park since we were due to visit the more major ones over the following days. All these sites would be major attractions in their own right anywhere else, but in Angkor there is simply too much for the regular visitor to take in, but since we're not regular visitors we aimed to try our best regardless!
Our fifth stop was Ta Som, one of Angkor's smaller temples which dates back to the 12th century.
The temple sits within an enclosure of laterite walls with striking 'face towers' over the main gates. The main shrine is much more compact than the other sites we visited and consists of a central group of towers and corridors. There is however much intricate figurative carving adorning the walls with many serene apsara figures smiling back at the viewer.
The temple ruins are quite picturesque owing to how close the surrounding jungle seems to get to it here. The site itself takes less time to explore than many of Angkor's sprawling temple sites but is a rewarding place to visit with much charm and beauty nonetheless.
A page from the programme for 'The Yeomen of the Guard'. The page includes an advert for T. Merrall (boots and shoes shop) of Low Street, Keighley.
The Keighley Amateur Lyric and Dramatic Society staged a production of W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan's 'The Yeomen of the Guard (or The Merryman and his Maid)' at the Hippodrome theatre in Keighley from 18th to 23rd October 1909.
The story is set in the sixteenth century and revolves around Colonel Fairfax, a condemned prisoner in the Tower of London, and his attempts to secure a wife before his execution for sorcery. He manages to escape the Tower disguised as a Yeoman and much confusion ensues before all is righted by the end.
It starred Arthur Greenwood as Colonel Fairfax, with E. G. Moulding, James Pearson, Willie Boyes, J. R. Hammond, H. Connelly, John Merrall, C. A. Greenwood, J. Greenwood, B. Hardacre, H. V. Wilkinson, Miranda Sugden, Ethel Bird, Miss Lambert and Mrs Heaton. The musical director was W. S. Wilkinson and the stage manager was W. G. Bedford. Scenery was hired from the Northern Theatres Co. Ltd. and was specially painted by F. G. Venimore.
The Keighley Amateur Lyric and Dramatic Society had only formed a year previous (in 1908) and the theatre had only been renamed the Hippodrome earlier that year (in 1909). Prior to that it was known as the Queen’s Theatre, although both names remained on the front of the building, and many programmes and adverts continued to refer to the ‘Hippodrome and Queen’s Theatre’.
In 1876, Abraham Kershaw, a piano player and tuner from Huddersfield, had bought 700 square yards of land in Queen Street. On it he had built a five-storey wooden theatre, designed by architect J. B. Bailey, that opened at Easter 1880. The theatre was not a financial success and the wooden theatre was pulled down. A new improved theatre, called the Queen’s Theatre was built instead and opened on 26th August 1889. But even this new theatre was deemed inadequate, and in its place was built the new Queen’s Theatre. This was designed by theatre architect Frank Matcham (1854-1920). It covered 7,000 square feet with a frontage of 86 feet to Queen Street and 48 feet to Adelaide Street. There was an iron veranda fitted with coloured glass that ran the whole length of the front. It could seat almost 2,000 people, the stage was 65 feet wide by 45 feet deep, and it boasted that every person in the house had an uninterrupted view of the whole stage. There were six private boxes, bars on all five floors, and ten dressing rooms. The new theatre opened on the 3rd February 1900.
Impresario Francis Laidler (1867-1955) took over the theatre in 1913 – he also ran the Prince’s Theatre and Alhambra Theatre in Bradford, and the Theatre Royal in Leeds. He was managing director up until his death when his widow, Gwladys, took over until the theatre closed in October 1956.
The theatre was demolished in 1961 and in its place now stands the Airedale Shopping Centre multi-storey car park. Keighley Local Studies Library holds various records relating to the theatre including a scrapbook belonging to Abraham Kershaw, a box office notebook, a theatrical postcard album covering 1906 to 1929, autograph books and various photographs, programmes, and posters.
This souvenir programme was a collaboration between photographer H. Charlton of Lawkholme Crescent, and the printers Wadsworth & Co. of The Rydal Press, Russell Street. It measures approximately 255mm by 190mm and is 36 pages long. The programme was donated to the Keighley and District Local History Society by Tim Neal in 2022. A second copy was received by the History Society from an anonymous donor later in 2022. Both copies are held in the History Society's physical archive.
Another pattern picture, this time as the Sun came through my bedroom shutters and bounced off a mirror
These themes from Jacob’s life find expression in each of our lives when unanticipated events in our lives compel us to stretch and grow. Fate can throw us into situations we would never consciously choose; yet when we meet these situations with faith and courage, they often provide us with fertile ground for our spiritual and emotional growth. Certain gifts of spirit only come to us as gifts of the unknown....
...In the hidden world, things often manifest initially as their opposite: what presents as adversity or as a huge mistake becomes a source of great blessing; seemingly impure deeds give rise to holiness; darkness reveals light; joy emerges out of sorrow.
But just as Jacob initially rejects Leah, we often fail to appreciate the people and challenges that enter our lives not of our own volition—especially those that bring unexpected complexity. Leah represents everything Jacob disavows and would like to avoid, including his own shadowy past. She reminds him of his own shortcomings—his cunning and deceit. But fate and destiny conspire to bring the two of them together from a place beyond conscious thought or intent. Though Jacob will eventually come to love Leah and appreciate her role in his life, he must first grow in his ability to trust and love the unknown forces that brought them together.

Flood waters continue to rise in Conway, S.C., impacting surrounding cities and neighborhoods to include Myrtle Beach, S.C., Sept. 25, 2018. South Carolina National Guard Engineers and Transportation Corps placed sandbags along Highway 501 to ensure roadways remain passable and communities are not cut-off on the main route to highly populated Myrtle Beach, S.C. They have laid nearly three miles of barrier protecting a mile and a half of road with sandbags and flood barriers to keep the road open from flooding. There are approximately 2,000 South Carolina Guards Soldiers and Airmen are currently on duty to support local authorities in response and recovery operations to the ongoing flooding in that followed Hurricane Florence's landfall.

As always NEoN celebrates its festival with a late night party. Acts include Plastique Fantastique, Verity Brit & Musician U, Fallope & The Tubes and Resident DJ RHL. With a pop up bar and performances amongst our large group exhibition the vast factory space West Ward Works, this night promises to be a visual audible delight.
Plastique Fantastique (UK)
A performance fiction envisaged as a group of human and non-human avatars delivering communiqués from the past and the future. The communiqués are channelled through installations, writing, comics and sound and moving image work and performances, addressing technology, popular and mass media and sacred cultures and also human-machine animals and non-human entities and agents. Over several years, numerous people have produced Plastique Fantastique but there is also a core group producing the performance fiction. Plastique Fantastique was first presented by David Burrows and Simon O’Sullivan and developed with long-term collaborators Alex Marzeta and Vanessa Page, and more recently with Mark Jackson. For NE0N 2017, this group will call forth and trap a bit-coin-fairy-spirit to ask it seems questions. The performance – Plastique Fantastique Protocols for the Society for Cutting Up Mun-knee-snakers (S.C.U.M.): I-Valerie-Solaris-AKA-@32ACP-Amazon.co.uk-recommends-‘Pacific-Rim’ may/may-not shoot b1t-c0in-f@iry-sp1r1t) – uses drone-folk-songs, moving image projection, reliquaries and ritual to manifest the block-chain-spirit.
David Burrows, Alex Marzeta, Vanessa Page and Mark Jackson will be performing.
Rites of the Zeitgeber, Verity Brit & Musician ‘U’ (UK)
9 channel video installation, live score performed by musician ‘U’
The Zeitgeber (‘time giver’ or ‘synchroniser’) is honoured by a triadic henge of stacked CRT monitors in which past durations collide with future vacuums. Strange extra-terrestrial topographies are traversed across geological time and the internet. Curious substances are unearthed and lost languages resurrected. Fragments from Mina Loy, J. G. Ballard and Henri Bergson emerge amongst an archaeology of media from Super 8, VHS, to HD. Time bends from matter, history is up-set and the clock is obsolete.
