Virginia Valli (1895–1968)[ was an American stage and film actress whose motion picture career started in the silent film era and lasted until the beginning of the sound film era of the 1930s.

 

Valli, originally Virginia McSweeney, was born in Chicago, Illinois, and started acting in Milwaukee at a theater stock company. From 1916, she also acted in some 18 films at the Essanay Studios in Chicago, debuting in a minor part in the serial The Strange Case of Mary Page (1916), and quickly having all the female leads.. After that, she acted at the studios of World Film, Fort Lee, New Jersey. However, when features came along, Valli was reduced to supporting parts. By 1920, Valli had moved to California to act in films by Fox, Vitagraph and others. By that time she had already adopted the name of Virginia Valli. A major part she had in the Metro Pictures film The Man Who (Maxwell Karger, 1921) with Bert Lytell and Lucy Cotton, and scripted by June Mathis. On the film's success, Karger then directed Lytell and Valli in a string of fllms for Metro.

 

In 1922-24 Valli did several films for Universal. A major part Valli had in John Ford's The Village Blacksmith (1922), based on Wadsworth Longfellow, in the northwoods melodrama The Storm (Reginald Barker 1922) with House Peters, and in The Shock (Lambert Hillyer, 1923), in which Lon Chaney falls in love with the daughter of his victim, combined with the San Francisco earthquake. Other memorable titles were The Signal Tower (Clarence Brown, 1924), Wild Oranges (King Vidor, 1924), The Confidence Man (Victor Heerman, 1924), Up the Ladder (Edward Sloman, 1925), and the British film The Pleasure Garden (1925) by Alfred Hitchcock.

 

Location shooting for The Pleasure Garden was done in Italy and Germany. The film revolves around Patsy Brand (Valli), a woman who works as a dancer in a theater called "Pleasure Garden". She helps Jill (Carmelita Geraghty) to get a job in he theater. Via Jill's fiancee Hugh (John Stuart) she meets Levet (Miles Mander) and eventually marries him. They sail for Italy on a honeymoon. Levett and Hugh then go on a trip to one of the British colonies. Jill, meanwhile, has dropped Hugh for a rich prince who spoils her and she has become distant to Patsy. When Patsy receives notice that her husband is ill, she travels after him, but discovers he has an affair with a native woman. Patsy, instead, takes care of a really ill Hugh, which Levet doesn't like... The film was produced by Michael Balcon and Erich Pommer; it was Balcon who hired Valli as star of the film, being one of the first to do so. Also Carmelita Geraghty was American.

 

Valli continued appearing in films throughout the decade. She had no longlasting contracts with majors, so she played at all major and minor studios in the 1920s. In 1925 Valli acted in The Man Who Found Himself with Thomas Meighan. The production was carried out in the studio of Long Island, New York. Among her films were also the highlights Stage Madness (Victor Schertzinger, 1927) with Tullio Carminati, Paid To Love (Howard Hawks, 1927), with William Powell, and Evening Clothes (Luther Reed, 1927), with Adolphe Menjou. Her first sound movie was The Isle of Lost Ships in 1929, but her film career would not last much longer as her fame declined. After scarce adventures in sound cinema, she quitted acting in 1931.

 

Valli was married to George Lamson and, in second marriage in 1931, to the actor Charles Farrell, a marriage that lasted until her death. They moved to Palm Springs, where she had an intense social life for years. She suffered a stroke in 1966, and died two years later, at the age of 73, in Palm Springs, California. She was buried in Welwood Murray Cemetery in that city. Valli did not have children.

# อยากจะเก็บฤดูหนาวไว้ในขวดโหล

เอาไว้ใช้ในยามที่ลุงร้อน

 

อาการมันฟ้อง ว่าฤดูหนาวกำลังจะจากลุงไป

อากาศดีๆแบบนี้ ช่วยอยู่นานๆอีกนิดได้ไหม ...

... เมื่อลุงยังเยาว์วัย ลุงเลิฟฤดูร้อนมากๆเลยนะ

มันให้ความสดชื่น แจ่มใส รู้สึกมีพลัง

และลุงไม่ค่อยถูกจริตกับฤดูหนาวสักเท่าไหร่

เหตุเพราะเป็นเด็กที่ผอมบางไร้ไขมันห่อหุ่มร่างกาย

เป็นหอบหืด มีโรคประจำตัวมากมาย เจ็บง่ายป่วยบ่อย

แถมขาลาย ปากแตก ผิวลอกเป็นขุยไม่น่าพิสมัย

แต่เมื่อวันเวลาผันผ่าน เหตุจูงใจใหม่ที่ทำให้ลุงเริ่มพิศวาสอากาศหนาว

นั่นคือสภาวะอากาศโลกที่เพิ่มสูงขึ้นอย่างรวดเร็ว

ความสดใสชื่นบานของฤดูร้อนไม่ได้ชื่นมื่นเหมือนอย่างเคย

และด้วยเป็นคนที่เหงื่อออกง่ายมาก จะเดินจะเหินขยับร่างไปเพียงนิด

เหงื่อก็ซึมไหลเต็มกาย แถมบางคืนถึงขั้นต้องนอนแก้ผ้าอีกต่างหาก

ฤดูหนาวจึงเป็นตัวเลือกใหม่ในใจลุง

แม้ฤดูหนาวเมืองหลวงจะไม่ได้หนาวสะใจเหมือนเมืองอื่นเขา

แต่ก็เป็นอุณหภูมิที่เหมาะสมสำหรับลุงแล้ว

เพราะอุณหภูมิที่ทำให้ลุงเจริญเติบโตได้อยู่ระหว่าง 18 - 29 องศา

อุณหภูมิเฉลี่ย 32 - 40 องศาของเมืองไทย

จึงทำให้ลุงตัดใจบอกลารักฤดูร้อนไปได้อย่างไม่ยากเย็นนัก ... ลาก่อย

 

จริงๆอุณหภูมิที่ต่ำเกินไปนั้นก็ใช่ว่าจะดีในระยะยาวนะ

เพราะนั่นเป็นสัญญาณบอกเหตุว่าโลกเรากำลังแย่ลงทุกวี่วัน

ฤดูหนาวยิ่งหนาวมาก ฤดูร้อนก็ยิ่งร้อนจัดขึ้นเช่นกัน

เพราะนี่คือสภาวะโลกร้อน พวกเราทุกคนช่วยกันดูแลโลกของเราด้วยนะครับ

อย่ามักง่ายกันจนเคยชิน ปลูกต้นไม้ ปิดไฟ ประหยัดน้ำมัน อะไรง่ายๆนี่แหละ

เพื่อลูก เพื่อหลาน และเพื่อตัวของเราเองครับ

22 of us gathered at Morninglory Farm in Killaloe, ON, Canada this

evening, upstream from Canada's capital, for a potluck, local,

organic, low-carbon feast, lighting beeswax candles to the honouring

of our Mother Earth. We call for a real deal in Copenhagen, one which

truly cleans up the environment, is binding and longlasting, is fair

to all peoples and works in harmony with Nature. May our intentions

flow downriver and be heard by our country's leaders in Ottawa,

passed on to Copenhagen, and be acted upon!

 

Sincerely,

Christina, Robbie, Ben & Ethan Anderman and the Morninglory clan

 

P.S.: Dried organically grown pear slices from our farm spell out

350ppm, let's get our carbon levels down to that sustainable level

P.S.S.: Happy Hanukah all, our menorah is adding it's candles of hope

also

Abandoned benches , cutting trees, fallen leaves were forgotten & piled together somewhere sometimes on earth.

 

There are more and more natural disasters occured at all aspects from the climates down to earthquakes in recent years, which become the warn sign to people all over the world. Some of them are due to human bening's industries revolution & over consumption issue in life for the centuries, which brought us the pollution from the air till our mind in depth. The environment we lives in physical and we think in mind was polluted more or more. All kinds of words, sound, symbols related to the racial, the gender , the social status, and the country discrimination etc we created annoyed our soul & mind and caused more or more wars conflict from the people around the the world. All kinds of the air, water, food pollutions from all kinds of electronic & medical industries & instruments bring huge impact to our life & enfluence to our health.

 

Here I try to utilze & combine some different elements such as the leaves, the flowers, the sky, the mountain, the fog , rain & wind from the nature, and the railway station, the light, graffitti from the artifical world , and create the image which like the symbol or metaphor about what we breathe, we listen, we saw and we live together now in daily life .

 

With all these messy stuffs we got from the life and the world day by day , and it become the disturbance to our mind , and hard to seek the beauty of the clarity & the simplicity of the world we live and the mind we used to own. Let's try our best not only decrease the air pollution from the nature, but also simpify ourself from thoughts to mind if posssible from now on . And hope we can enjoy the happiness of simplicity & keep the longlasting of earth moving forwards.

Found on a meadow close to mountain needlewood, ca. 1300 m of altitude. Growing in clumps directly from the grass, no trees anywhere close on that meadow.

It seems there are different implication of Dragon at Eastern & Western legend , in Chinese culture, Dragon is the symbol of royal , luckiness , blessings & power etc, all in all are positive meaning , therefore the emperors of ancient Chinese dynasty normally used the dragon to describe himself. The clothes, chair of Emperor will use the dragon as the key role in the pattern, same applied to the temple, means to bless the people within the dynasty.

 

Of course in modern demoncrative society , no president in Taiwan dare to describe himself as the dragon anymore,but still Dragon have positive implication & blessings to the people who believe Chinese tradition.

 

What you saw here are the combination of 9 different stylish dragons with changable colors , the number 9 means longlasting , normally is a positive blessing to the people, country for the new year through.

Fra swing, blues & jazz roots steps, uno show che carbura a mille allâora

Con uno spettacolo che carbura a mille allâora fra blues, swing, boogie e soul, torna a JazzAscona uno dei gruppi rivelazione della scorsa edizione. Parliamo di Nikki & Jules.

A vederla muoversi sul palcoscenico, ben si capisce perché la cantante e ballerina americana Nicolle Rochelle, in arte Nikki, abbia letteralmente soggiogato alcuni anni fa tutta Parigi nello spettacolo âA la recherche de Joséphineâ di Jerome Savary, di cui è stata la vedette nel ruolo di Joséphine Baker. Con i suoi passi jazz roots e la sua voce coinvolgente, Nikki ammalia il pubblico, sostenuta a meraviglia da un quartetto guidato da Julien Brunetaud, in arte Jules, un pianista e cantante francese, innamorato di blues e swing, che dopo aver a lungo collaborato con il bluesman Nico Wayne Toussaint - ed aver accompagnato in tournée anche Chuck Berry - ha trovato in Nikki una complice ideale per uno spettacolo salutato ovunque in Europa da un pubblico entusiasta. Da non perdere!

 

A mix of swing, blues and jazz roots steps for a show at full speed

With a highly electrifying mix of blues, swing, boogie and souol, one of the revelations of last year's edition: Nikki & Jules. Watching her moving on stage one is not surprised to learn of how the American dancer and singer Nicolle Rochelle, known as Nikki, managed to enchant the whole of Paris with her performance as Joséphine Baker in âA la recherche de Joséphineâ by Jerome Savary. With her jazz roots moves and her enthralling voice, Nikki knows how to mesmerize her audience. She is accompanied by a wonderful quartet led by Julien Brunetaud, aka Jules, a French pianist and singer who loves blues and swing. After a longlasting collaboration with bluesman Nico Wayne Toussaint and after having accompanied Chuck Berry on tour, Jules has found in Nikki the perfect accomplice for a show that has been met with enthusiasm throughout Europe. Come and see for yourself!

 

Swing, Blues & Jazz Roots Steps. Es geht ab wie eine Rakete

Mit einer Show, in der es abgeht wie eine Rakete, mit Blues, Swing, Boogie und Soul, kehrt eine Gruppe nach Ascona zurück, die zu den Entdeckungen des letztjährigen Festivals gehört. Die Rede ist von Nikki & Jules.

Wenn man die amerikanische Sängerin und Tänzerin Nicolle Rochelle, Künstlername Nikki, in Bewegung auf der Bühne sieht, dann versteht man sofort, dass ihr vor einigen Jahren als Josephine Baker in âA la recherche de Joséphineâ von Jérôme Savary ganz Paris buchstäblich zu Füssen lag. Mit ihren Jazz Roots Steps und ihrer mitreissenden Stimme verzaubert sie ihr Publikum. Phantastisch unterstützt wird sie von einem Quartett unter der Leitung von Julien Brunetaud, Künstlername Jules, Pianist und Sänger aus Frankreich, verliebt in Blues und Swing. Nach langjähriger Zusammenarbeit mit Bluesman Nico Wayne Toussaint und Tourneen mit Chuck Berry, hat er in Nikki die ideale Komplizin gefunden für eine Show, die in ganz Europa auf begeistertes Publikum stösst. Nicht verpassen!

 

Un spectacle qui carbure à mille à lâheure

Nikki, alias Nicolle Rochelle avec deux «ailes», est une chanteuse et danseuse Américaine qui a mis Paris à ses pieds dans le rôle de Josephine Baker dans le spectacle de Jerome Savary en hommage à la New Orleans. Ãgalement actrice, elle a joué notamment dans âThe Cosby Show' et dans âFameâ sur Broadway. Jules, alias Julien Brunetaud, est un pianiste, guitariste, chanteur et compositeur. Récompensé a plusieurs reprises par les trophées France Blues, le Hot Club de France ou à Memphis lors de lâinternational Blues Challenge, il a joué sa musique dans tous les continents et enregistré plusieurs disques à la Nouvelle Orléans et Paris. Nikki & Jules nous plongent dans un univers intimiste avec un héritage mixte. Fortement ancré dans le Blues, ils nous délivrent un répertoire qui puise dans de nombreux styles. En mélangeant leurs compositions originales avec des reprises remixées, l'expérience sonne comme un voyage intemporel. Quand le jeu de jambes Jazz Roots de Nikki s'emmêle avec le jeux de doigts Soul Blues de Jules, on laisse le bon temps rouler!

This Bedford TK at least not like the one in the previous photo as it seems to be used daily for furniture transport.

 

Shame that todays modern trucks that look all the same in shape and are more made of plastic than metal are taking place instead of these lovely and longlasting old trucks.

Finally I've pulled myself together to give this gorgeous mold a face - I was way scared, since I don't see myself as the faceup-hero, but it turned out quite nicely, I am very happy with him, he's so gentle (although his skincolour is somewhat scary) and looks like he can't harm a soul - actually he can, he's a Werewolfhunter who recently had to leave his natural habitat to come adjust to a very new and (hopefully) longlasting life^^.

Extract from "More Rough Travel Notes with an Architectural Eye - 2012":

The textures and colours of the vernacular architecture of buildings display longlasting vibrancy. Lavenham has an impressive number of Listed buildings — there are more than 300 — and we wander down Water St, Lady St, Shilling and Prentice Streets, Barn St, southern High St, Hall Rd, Church St and so on. An ongoing sequence of character, time and place becomes revealed.

 

Construction using local materials and knowledge produced architecture with a sense of Place; there was no good building-stone here, though there was some chalk and flint. No wonder the art of strong carpentry, as shown in the timber-framed dwellings of this region, flourished unchallenged. Clay is a geological feature of the region too. Clay ground nurtured the oaks which gave the medieval carpenter his raw material. In the later period it was also fired to make bricks and roof tiles. The organic forms of the materials are reflected in the building characteristics.

 

Close studding, strengthened with diagonal bracing, with projecting jetties in carry-over, and oak-mullioned windows are typical of the type of timber construction. It was from the 13th C onwards that these carpentry skills developed, and houses were built this way on the proceeds of the wool trade. Weavers’ cottages were another widespread example of the rural landscape.

 

Thrusts of the framing were contained by crafted wood joints of various kinds. Close studding was interrupted by the principal horizontal beam at first-floor level — the bressumer, which as in the Guildhall, was sometimes the only item with decorative carving. The general form of the interior of a house can often be read from the outside, while timber-framing might typically sit on a brick-plinth base. These days the wood’s often darker stained (probably Victorian), though in medieval times was more likely limed.

 

The creative and functional aspects are so closely integrated that they are hardly divisible. Close-studding, jettying, patterned nogging infils, and windows, became status symbols.

Fra swing, blues & jazz roots steps, uno show che carbura a mille allâora

Con uno spettacolo che carbura a mille allâora fra blues, swing, boogie e soul, torna a JazzAscona uno dei gruppi rivelazione della scorsa edizione. Parliamo di Nikki & Jules.

A vederla muoversi sul palcoscenico, ben si capisce perché la cantante e ballerina americana Nicolle Rochelle, in arte Nikki, abbia letteralmente soggiogato alcuni anni fa tutta Parigi nello spettacolo âA la recherche de Joséphineâ di Jerome Savary, di cui è stata la vedette nel ruolo di Joséphine Baker. Con i suoi passi jazz roots e la sua voce coinvolgente, Nikki ammalia il pubblico, sostenuta a meraviglia da un quartetto guidato da Julien Brunetaud, in arte Jules, un pianista e cantante francese, innamorato di blues e swing, che dopo aver a lungo collaborato con il bluesman Nico Wayne Toussaint - ed aver accompagnato in tournée anche Chuck Berry - ha trovato in Nikki una complice ideale per uno spettacolo salutato ovunque in Europa da un pubblico entusiasta. Da non perdere!

 

A mix of swing, blues and jazz roots steps for a show at full speed

With a highly electrifying mix of blues, swing, boogie and souol, one of the revelations of last year's edition: Nikki & Jules. Watching her moving on stage one is not surprised to learn of how the American dancer and singer Nicolle Rochelle, known as Nikki, managed to enchant the whole of Paris with her performance as Joséphine Baker in âA la recherche de Joséphineâ by Jerome Savary. With her jazz roots moves and her enthralling voice, Nikki knows how to mesmerize her audience. She is accompanied by a wonderful quartet led by Julien Brunetaud, aka Jules, a French pianist and singer who loves blues and swing. After a longlasting collaboration with bluesman Nico Wayne Toussaint and after having accompanied Chuck Berry on tour, Jules has found in Nikki the perfect accomplice for a show that has been met with enthusiasm throughout Europe. Come and see for yourself!

 

Swing, Blues & Jazz Roots Steps. Es geht ab wie eine Rakete

Mit einer Show, in der es abgeht wie eine Rakete, mit Blues, Swing, Boogie und Soul, kehrt eine Gruppe nach Ascona zurück, die zu den Entdeckungen des letztjährigen Festivals gehört. Die Rede ist von Nikki & Jules.

Wenn man die amerikanische Sängerin und Tänzerin Nicolle Rochelle, Künstlername Nikki, in Bewegung auf der Bühne sieht, dann versteht man sofort, dass ihr vor einigen Jahren als Josephine Baker in âA la recherche de Joséphineâ von Jérôme Savary ganz Paris buchstäblich zu Füssen lag. Mit ihren Jazz Roots Steps und ihrer mitreissenden Stimme verzaubert sie ihr Publikum. Phantastisch unterstützt wird sie von einem Quartett unter der Leitung von Julien Brunetaud, Künstlername Jules, Pianist und Sänger aus Frankreich, verliebt in Blues und Swing. Nach langjähriger Zusammenarbeit mit Bluesman Nico Wayne Toussaint und Tourneen mit Chuck Berry, hat er in Nikki die ideale Komplizin gefunden für eine Show, die in ganz Europa auf begeistertes Publikum stösst. Nicht verpassen!

 

Un spectacle qui carbure à mille à lâheure

Nikki, alias Nicolle Rochelle avec deux «ailes», est une chanteuse et danseuse Américaine qui a mis Paris à ses pieds dans le rôle de Josephine Baker dans le spectacle de Jerome Savary en hommage à la New Orleans. Ãgalement actrice, elle a joué notamment dans âThe Cosby Show' et dans âFameâ sur Broadway. Jules, alias Julien Brunetaud, est un pianiste, guitariste, chanteur et compositeur. Récompensé a plusieurs reprises par les trophées France Blues, le Hot Club de France ou à Memphis lors de lâinternational Blues Challenge, il a joué sa musique dans tous les continents et enregistré plusieurs disques à la Nouvelle Orléans et Paris. Nikki & Jules nous plongent dans un univers intimiste avec un héritage mixte. Fortement ancré dans le Blues, ils nous délivrent un répertoire qui puise dans de nombreux styles. En mélangeant leurs compositions originales avec des reprises remixées, l'expérience sonne comme un voyage intemporel. Quand le jeu de jambes Jazz Roots de Nikki s'emmêle avec le jeux de doigts Soul Blues de Jules, on laisse le bon temps rouler!

In you there is something

Something forgotten

Something true

 

You have beauty far beyond and more

Don’t you know?

 

Deep down, in the forgotten land

I beg you to return

A thousand years and more my friend

To find yourself again

 

For every second your light is out

A tear drops heavily to the ground

 

Deep down, in the forgotten land

I beg you to return

A thousand years and more my friend

To find yourself again

Here at S.O.TECH, It is our mission to provide the highest quality products available on the market today. We strive to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to our products and designs. Recently, we made a corporate decision to change the shade of our Coyote Brown nylon material. The old shade (with a hint of a green tone) will be phased out shortly. We feel this new shade (Cordura-Tan 499) is a step in the right direction and will meet the needs of our valued customers.

    

The great thing about this kaki shade is that it blends extremely well with most camouflage patterns. Making it one versatile shade!

    

Personally I think it's a great color! What do you think?
