Plot[edit]
In 1939, the Germans move Polish Jews into the Kraków Ghetto as World War
II begins. Oskar Schindler, an ethnic German, arrives in the city hoping
to make his fortune. A member of the Nazi Party, Schindler lavishes
bribes on Wehrmacht (German armed forces) and SS officials and acquires a
factory to produce enamelware. To help him run the business, Schindler
enlists the aid of Itzhak Stern, a local Jewish official who has contacts
with black marketeers and the Jewish business community. Stern helps
Schindler arrange loans to finance the factory. Schindler maintains
friendly relations with the Nazis and enjoys wealth and status as "Herr
Direktor", and Stern handles administration. Schindler hires Jewish
workers because they cost less, while Stern ensures that as many people
as possible are deemed essential to the German war effort, which saves
them from being transported to concentration camps or killed.
SS-Untersturmführer (second lieutenant) Amon Goeth arrives in Kraków to
oversee construction of Płaszów concentration camp. When the camp is
completed, he orders the ghetto liquidated. Many people are shot and
killed in the process of emptying the ghetto. Schindler witnesses the
massacre and is profoundly affected. He particularly notices a tiny girl
in a red coat – one of the few splashes of color in the black-and-white
film – as she hides from the Nazis. When he later sees the red coat on a
wagon loaded with bodies being taken away to be burned, he knows the girl
is dead. Schindler is careful to maintain his friendship with Goeth and,
through bribery and lavish gifts, continues to enjoy SS support. Goeth
brutally mistreats his maid and randomly shoots people from the balcony
of his villa, and the prisoners are in constant daily fear for their
lives. As time passes, Schindler's focus shifts from making money to
trying to save as many lives as possible. He bribes Goeth into allowing
him to build a sub-camp for his workers so that he can better protect
them.
As the Germans begin to lose the war, Goeth is ordered to ship the
remaining Jews at Płaszów to Auschwitz concentration camp. Schindler asks
Goeth to allow him to move his workers to a new munitions factory he
plans to build in his home town of Zwittau-Brinnlitz. Goeth agrees, but
charges a huge bribe. Schindler and Stern create "Schindler's List" – a
list of people to be transferred to Brinnlitz and thus saved from
transport to Auschwitz.
As Schindler's workers begin to arrive at the new site, the train
carrying the women is accidentally redirected to Auschwitz. Schindler
bribes the commandant of Auschwitz with a bag of diamonds to win their
release. At the new factory, Schindler forbids the SS guards to enter the
production areas and encourages the Jews to observe the Sabbath. To keep
his workers alive, he spends much of his fortune bribing Nazi officials
and buying shell casings from other companies; his factory does not
produce any usable armaments during its seven months of operation.
Schindler runs out of money just as Germany surrenders, ending the war in
Europe.
As a Nazi Party member and war profiteer, Schindler must flee the
advancing Red Army to avoid capture. The SS guards have been ordered to
kill the Jews, but Schindler persuades them to return to their families
as men, not murderers. He bids farewell to his workers and prepares to
head west, hoping to surrender to the Americans. The workers give
Schindler a signed statement attesting to his role saving Jewish lives,
together with a ring engraved with a Talmudic quotation: "Whoever saves
one life saves the world entire." Schindler is touched but is also deeply
ashamed, as he feels he should have done even more. As the Schindlerjuden
(Schindler Jews) awaken the next morning, a Soviet soldier announces that
they have been liberated. The Jews leave the factory and walk to a nearby
town.
After some scenes depicting Goeth's execution and a summary of
Schindler's later life, the black-and-white frame changes to a color shot
of actual Schindlerjuden at Schindler's grave in Jerusalem. Accompanied
by the actors who portrayed them, the Schindlerjuden place stones on the
grave. In the final scene, Neeson places a pair of roses on the grave.
Cast[edit]
Liam Neeson (seen here in 2002) was cast as Oskar Schindler in the film.

This Grade II listed building was built as a lodge at one of the entrances to Wortley Hall.
Wortley Hall is a stately home in the small South Yorkshire village of Wortley, located south west of Barnsley.
The Hall stands in 26 acres of formal grounds and woodland surrounded by 242 hectares of park land. The hall was the formal home of the Wortley family for hundreds of years.
It is believed that the original manor house of the Wortley family was situated on Wharncliffe Chase.
The present Hall was built in the 18th century and was the seat of the Wharncliffe family until the Second World War. During the war the hall was used by the army, but after 1945 its structural condition deteriorated.
In 1950, a group of local trade unionists identified the hall as a possible educational and holiday centre, and established a co-operative which succeeded in purchasing the hall for those purposes. It was opened in 1951.
Grade II* listed building.

The A List! has settled into a nice niche of wonderful people, clubs, djs, musicians, sim owners, event planners, artists and creators.
But, the best part is that now both Xavi and I have our own resource for the best of the best in Second Life. I just wait to see that orange A List logo pop up and I know it's either going to be an outrageous party, an elegant ballroom affair, live music or a peaceful exploratory evening on a beautiful sim.
Bella Vida has disco night each month. They redecorate the place to reflect the times. It's always fun to pop in on that one.
Dance 4 Life is one of the newer clubs in Second Life. High above the NYC skyline on the rooftop, you can dance your night away in a beautiful, urban setting.
The other night I stopped off at TrueHouse. True to it's name, the house was sweet and fine. I stayed for quite a while... only taking one picture, 'cause the music was so good... I was so chilled.
DJ Benny Klang was at Haad Rin the other night. From Germany, Benny mixed some great tunes for the beach crowd there that night.
Daemon! We always shout when we hit the floor at Derailed on Sub Zero. Along with dj's Ware & Blabbermouth, DJ Daemon Chadeau is one of our favorite noize makers. We always have a great time there.
DJ Tasty was spinning late one night over at Electro Violence. So I hit the tp for a brief break from building. Always a great way to refocus on the build!
WET Builder Robertson sent a tp with a plea that he needed to take a break. Blackhearts club is a favorite for the 80's music lovers. DJ Thalie was spinning and I always love her sets.
Speaking of dj's, I just love DJ Space Grelling. He and Harriet greet everyone with a friendly smile and shout. And his sets are just so fun. I swear I could hang out at alt7 all day long! LOL!
Check out Bay Vista Live Music scene where you might catch Maxmillion Kleene singing his sweet songs with that mesmerizing voice. I stopped off one day, sitting at the table listening.
And finally, for those who need a romantic evening locked in each other's arms, head towards the legendary, Avilion Ballroom.
Please don't feel the need for invites, I'm just keeping this site reasonably up to date, by uploading sporadically, in the hope that Flickr will solve some of it's usability issues. I've always wanted to shoot a humming bird, photographically speaking of course, but until now have been spectacularly unsuccessful. However, we saw a few at the park today, so I jumped in the car, went home and grabbed my telephoto lens, and finally got a couple of half decent shots of these beautiful, elusive and fragile creatures.
Just added two pairs of fuzzy boot to my Etsy shop. Eeee theyre so cute! :3

The Grade II Listed Charlesworth Monument, The Lawn, Union Road, Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
A life-size marble figure of Dr Edward Parker Charlesworth, by Thomas Milnes of London, and erected a year after Charlesworths. Charlesworth was physician and life governor of the Lawn Hospital from 1820 until his death in 1853. Unveiled 12 July 1854 by John Conolly.
The Lawn, is an early 19th century Greek revival building which began its life as a lunatic asylum designed by Richard Ingleman off Union Road, in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. It comprises a number of notable buildings, a hotel, rose garden and children's play area, set within a large lawn. The Sir Joseph Banks Conservatory is an attraction for visitors, a hothouse containing exhibits categorised by Banks on his voyages with Captain James Cook.
After initial fundraising, the site was bought in 1809; and Richard Ingleman, architect of Nottingham Asylum, was brought in. After delay caused by indecision on the management of the asylum, independent of the county magistrates, the subscribers went ahead in 1817, and the building opened as a hospital in April 1820. The Lawn continued to provide psychiatric inpatient facilities until closed by the NHS in 1985.
The City of Lincoln Council purchased the Lawn Hospital including the grounds on 13 March 1986 from The Secretary of State for Social Services for £425,000.00 and, following extensive refurbishment, the Lawn complex was officially opened on 20 November 1990. It operated as a catering and event venue under council control for some years until, in October 2011, a decision was made to sell it.
In late 2014 RW Stokes and Sons Ltd, the owners of Stokes Coffee and High Bridge Cafe in Lincoln, were annouced as the preferred bidder. The company will make The Lawn an operational outlet for Stokes Tea and Coffee, with a roastery, café, barista training and wholesale sales. Additionally, they will create a high quality restaurant with new car parking spaces on the upper part of the west lawn.
Previously the complex housed military regimental museums and a museum about the Roman colony Lindum Colonia, from which Lincoln takes its name. The main building is now run as a conference centre. The previous accommodation building for nurses and doctors is now a boutique hotel with an orangery and events area.
This is a Scamp, a 7¼" gauge petrol electric loco finished to look similar to a Lister Auto Truck.
A petrol engine drives an 800W motor acting as a dynamo which feeds an identical motor to power both axles. With an engine throttle and an electronic speed controller it is huge fun to drive, very controllable and quite nippy.
Seen here in a friend's garden being driven by another friend, the editor of a well known UK narrow gauge railway magazine.
Ancora nelle liste della Coalizione Nazionale c'è Tsega Kiflie. Viene dall'Etiopia.
Il suo volantino non ha probabilmente gli standard dei suoi colleghi: la carta mi sembra quella delle normali fotocopie e la grafica si avvicina a quella di un documento di testo. A differenza di tutti gli altri, tuttavia, i contenuti sono sia in finlandese, sia in inglese.
Mi sono sorpreso di vedere un etiope come candidato, ma Tsega mi ha spiegato che in Finlandia gli stranieri residenti da almeno 2 anni hanno il diritto di elettorato attivo e passivo alle elezioni comunali.
Again in the lists of the National Coalition is Tsega Kiflie. He comes from Ethiopia.
Its flyer probably does not have the same standards of his colleagues: the paper seems to me that of the normal copy and graphics is similar to that of a text document. Unlike all the others, however, the contents are in both Finnish and English.
I am surprised to see an Ethiopian candidate, but Tsega told me that foreigners living in Finland for at least two years have the right to vote and stand in municipal elections.
Ah Frustration.
I thought I had the whole 30 days to live thing nailed down...but it may be that the series is going to change to "The Bucket List." Based on the movie that just came out about two men with not a lot of time to live.
I am a little lacking in inspiration so here are some tests. I need all of you design masters out there to give me some help/ideas/inspiration.
Thanks.
Listed Building Grade II
List Entry Number : 1072390
Date First Listed : 31 March 1978
The presbytery to the north of St Mary's was built in 1878, designed by Innocent and Brown of Sheffield. It is constructed of rock-faced stone with a pitched of slate. It has two storeys and a full-height canted bay with a hipped roof.
The Mark Hotel (formerly The Mark Mandarin Oriental Hotel)
25 East 77th Street (at Madison Avenue)
New York, NY
Lobby sitting area - The Mark Hotel - designed by Jacques Grange
--------------------
Originally built as a hotel, The Mark was designed in a neo-Italian Renaissance-style by architects, Schwartz and Gross. The fifteen-story structure is faced with red bricks and sits in the shadow of the Carlyle Hotel. Schwartz and Gross also designed The Fitzpatrick Manhattan Hotel and the Surrey Hotel at 20 East 76th St.
The hotel for many years was known as The Mark Mandarin Oriental Hotel.
According to a Mandarin Oriental press release dated January 2, 2006 it sold its 100% leasehold interest in The Mark, New York, for a gross consideration of US$150 million to Izak Senbahar and Simon Elias (Alexico Group). The hotel was originally acquired in 2000 as part of the US$142.5 million acquisition of The Rafael Group.
The hotel closed in 2007 and reopened in August 2009 as a hotel/co-op following a $250+ million makeover with 118 hotel rooms, and 42 co-op apartments. Prices for the co-ops range from $2 million to $60 million.
The hotels penthouse at 9,800 feet contains 5 bedrooms and 4 woodburning fireplaces and is listed for $60 million. Its living room is topped by a copper cupola, part of the original 1926 structure.
The Mark Hotel does not own the land it sits on - the annual land lease payment is $4 million.
Developer of the Mark Hotel, the Alexico Group, brought in chef Jean-George Vongerichten to run the 1st floor restaurant and designer Jacques Grange to reimagine the lobby and create 42 residences. The Alexico Group also developed the Alex Hotel at 205 East 45th Street.
The Alexico Group also operate The Laurel Hotel at 400 East 67th Street and recently bought the Flatotel Hotel on E. 51st St. with plans to turn it into another luxury property
The Real Deal reported in April 2010 that the Alexico Group has scaled back the co-op offerings from 42 units to 10 units due to a lack of demand.
Alexico had borrowed $255 million from Anglo Irish Bank for the project.
In March 2011 Dune Real Estate Partners acquired Anglo Irish Bank's $255 million mortgage loan on the Mark Hotel for $190 million. In june 2011 Dune Real Estate Partners filed to foreclose on loans granted to the Alexico Group's Mark Hotel.
The Irish Times reported the developers Simon Elias and Izak Senbahar of the Alexico Group are suing Anglo Irish Bank for $1 billion in a funding dispute over $500 million of loans that the bank gave to the men to redevelop three Manhattan hotels, the Mark, the Alex and the Flatotel.
The Grade II* Listed Grand Hotel on South Sands, Scarborough, North Yorkshire.
The hotel was designed by the Hull architect Cuthbert Brodrick, and when completed in 1867 was one of the largest hotels in the world, as well as one of the first giant purpose-built hotels in Europe. The hotel's distinctive yellow brickwork was made locally in Hunmanby.
The building is designed around the theme of time: four towers to represent the seasons, 12 floors for the months of the year, 52 chimneys symbolise the weeks, and originally there were 365 bedrooms, one for each day of the year. The hotel itself is in the shape of a 'V' in honour of Queen Victoria.
The hotel's heyday was arguably during Victorian times, when wealthy holidaymakers made up the establishment's clientele. As Scarborough was a famous spa town, the building's baths originally included an extra pair of taps, so guests could wash in seawater as well as fresh.
The hotel was badly damaged when the German Navy bombarded the town in 1914.
Nowadays, the hotel caters towards the budget end of the spectrum. The hotel was bought by Butlins, the company better-known for its holiday camps, in 1978, and run as an inexpensive choice of accommodation until it was sold to Britannia in 1998.
Three blue plaques outside mark where the novelist Anne Brontë died in 1849, the contribution of the RAF trainees stationed at the hotel during World War II, and the original opening of the building.
Once a water tower ,this has now been converted into a private residence.
The tower stands on the green, at the top of the road that runs through the little hamlet of Fritham
