The Postcard
A postally unused carte postale that was published by Phot-Express. Although the card was not posted, someone has used a pencil in order to write "March 1918" on the divided back.
Visé Paris
The card bears the imprimatur 'Visé Paris.' This means that the image was inspected and deemed by the military authorities in the French capital not to be a security risk.
'Visé Paris' indicates that the card was published during or soon after the Great War.
Abba Eban
"History teaches us that men and
nations behave wisely when they
have exhausted all other alternatives".
This was said during a speech in London UK on 16th. December 1970 by Abba Eban (1915-2002), an Israeli diplomat and writer.
Roye
Roye is a commune in the Somme département in Hauts-de-France in northern France. It is situated on the banks of the Avre, 30 miles (48 km) southeast of Amiens.
In 1634, religious refugees from Seville, Spain, known as the illuministes tried to establish themselves in France. They claimed to be inspired by celestial messages.
Pierre Guérin, curate of Saint-Georges, was converted, and he created many disciples, called "Les Guérinistes". The Catholic Church sought them out and had executed all of them by 1635.
In 2015, a shooting took place in Travellers' Camp at Roye in which four people died.
Roye in the Great War
Roye was in German hands from the 30th. August 1914 until the French re-took it on the 17th. March 1917. The town was recaptured by the Germans on the 26th. March 1918, but was evacuated by them on the 26th. August. The French First Army entered the town the following day.
The Church of Saint-Pierre was rebuilt in concrete in 1930 after considerable damage during the Great War. The 12th. century choir and apse and the 15th. century stained-glass windows were all saved.
Roye's Hôtel de Ville, built between 1775 and 1777 by the architect Pierre Dercheu was dynamited by the retreating Germans on the 17th. March 1917. The new building, by local architect Arthur Régnier, was completed in 1932. It is reminiscent of the original by Dercheu.
Roye New British Cemetery
Roye Old British Cemetery was 1.6 kilometres south of the town. It was created in March 1918 by the 53rd. Casualty Clearing Station, but there was little time to mark the graves before the town was captured by the Germans, who extended the cemetery for the burial of their own dead.
In 1920 the Commonwealth casualties were removed to Roye New British Cemetery.
Roye New British Cemetery was created after the Armistice when casualties were brought in from the battlefields and from the following other burial grounds :-
CRESSY CHURCHYARD FRENCH EXTENSION, where 36 United Kingdom soldiers were re-buried by the French authorities after the Armistice.
DANCOURT GERMAN CEMETERY No. 1, west of the village, where two RAF officers who died in June, 1918, were buried.
DRESLINCOURT GERMAN CEMETERY, on the road to Potte, where four United Kingdom soldiers were buried.
FERME D'EREUSE FRENCH MILITARY CEMETERY, BERNY-SUR-NOYE, on the west side of the farm, where two men of the Tank Corps were buried in July 1918, along with one RAF officer in August.
GOYENCOURT GERMAN CEMETERY, on the road to Roye, where five United Kingdom soldiers and one RAF officer were buried in March-June, 1918.
HATTENCOURT FRENCH and GERMAN CEMETERIES, on the road to Fresnoy-les-Roye, where 14 United Kingdom soldiers and one airman were buried.
LE FOLOISE FRENCH MILITARY CEMETERY, near the road to Esclainvillers, where nine men of the Tank Corps were buried in July 1918, along with one RAF officer in August.
MARCHELEPOT BRITISH CEMETERY, on the north-east side of the village, used by the British in the early months of 1918 and by the Germans in March-August, 1918, and containing 115 British graves.
ROYE GERMAN CEMETERY, where 85 United Kingdom soldiers were buried by the enemy in March and April 1918.
SOLENTE COMMUNAL CEMETERY (Oise), where one United Kingdom Officer was buried in March, 1918.
The Roye New British Cemetery contains 565 Commonwealth burials and commemorations of the Great War.
153 of the burials are unidentified, but special memorials have been erected to 13 casualties known or believed to be buried among them.
Other special memorials record the names of 117 casualties buried in Marchelepot British Cemetery and in three German cemeteries, whose graves could not be found.
The cemetery also contains the graves of 43 Second World War airmen, bringing the total number of burials to 698.
The Use of Artillery in the Great War
Artillery was very heavily used by both sides during the Great War. The British fired over 170 million artillery rounds of all types, weighing more than 5 million tons - that's an average of around 70 pounds (32 kilos) per shell.
With an average length of two feet, that number of shells if laid end to end would stretch for 64,394 miles (103,632 kilometres). That's over two and a half times round the Earth. If the artillery of the Central Powers of Germany and its allies is factored in, the figure can be doubled to 5 encirclements of the planet.
During the first two weeks of the Third Battle of Ypres, over 4 million rounds were fired at a cost of over £22,000,000 - a huge sum of money, especially over a century ago.
Artillery was the killer and maimer of the war of attrition.
According to Dennis Winter's book 'Death's Men' three quarters of battle casualties were caused by artillery rounds. According to John Keegan ('The Face of Battle') casualties were:
- Bayonets - less than 1%
- Bullets - 30%
- Artillery and Bombs - 70%
Keegan suggests however that the ratio changed during advances, when massed men walking line-abreast with little protection across no-man's land were no match for for rifles and fortified machine gun emplacements.
Many artillery shells fired during the Great War failed to explode. Drake Goodman provides the following information on Flickr:
"During World War I, an estimated one tonne of explosives was fired for every square metre of territory on the Western front. As many as one in every three shells fired did not detonate. In the Ypres Salient alone, an estimated 300 million projectiles that the British and the German forces fired at each other were "duds", and most of them have not been recovered."
To this day, large quantities of Great War matériel are discovered on a regular basis. Many shells from the Great War were left buried in the mud, and often come to the surface during ploughing and land development.
For example, on the Somme battlefields in 2009 there were 1,025 interventions, unearthing over 6,000 pieces of ammunition weighing 44 tons.
Artillery shells may or may not still be live with explosive or gas, so the bomb disposal squad, of the Civilian Security of the Somme, dispose of them.
A huge mine under the German lines did not explode during the battle of Messines in 1917. The mine, containing several tons of ammonal and gun cotton, was triggered by lightning in 1955, creating an enormous crater.
The precise location of a second mine which also did not explode is unknown. Searches for it are not planned, as they would be too expensive and dangerous. For more on this, please search for "Cotehele Chapel"
The Somme Times
From 'The Somme Times', Monday, 31 July, 1916:
'There was a young girl of the Somme,
Who sat on a number five bomb,
She thought 'twas a dud 'un,
But it went off sudden -
Her exit she made with aplomb!'

Marcus Miller torna ad esibirsi dal vivo con una band di giovani musicisti ai Magazzini Generali di Milano.
Dopo un'assenza dalle scene nel 2014, in cui si è concentrato nel comporre nuova musica ispirato dal ruolo di portavoce dell'UNESCO per lo Slave Route Project, Marcus ha registrato un nuovo CD tra Rio, Parigi, Los Angeles e Lafayette (Louisiana).
Marcus Miller, vincitore di due Grammy Awards, dell'Edison Award for Lifetime Achievement in Jazz 2013, del Victorie du Jazz 2010 e nominato Artista per la Pace Uncesco 2013 non è solo un musicista eccezionale, un bassista e multi strumentista apprezzato in tutto il mondo ma anche un dotato compositore e produttore.
Il leggendario album "Tutu", scritto e prodotto per Miles Davis, lo ha consacrato alla fama internazionale quando aveva solo 25 anni.
Nel corso della sua carriera Miller ha collaborato con moltissimi artisti di talento tra cui Eric Clapton, George Benson, Luther Vandross, Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Al Jarreau, George Duke, Wayne Shorter, Lalah Hathaway e Herbie Hancock. Ha anche prodotto i suoi album, vere e proprie pietre miliari del genere, come The Sun Don't Lie, Tales, M2, Silver Rain, Free, A Night in MonteCarlo (con l'Orchestra Filarmonica di Montecarlo) e Renaissance che gli ha dato l'occasione di intraprendere un tour mondiale con una nuova band composta da giovani talentuosi musicisti, forse ricordando le sue audizioni con un certo Miles Davis che ha fatto la stessa cosa per Marcus ed altri giovani musicisti di talento come Herbie Hancock e Wayne Shorter.

The Postcard
A postally unused carte postale published in 1916 by A. Richard of 84, Faub. du Temple, Paris.
Béthune in the Great War
Béthune is a town in northern France, in the Pas-de-Calais.
During the Great War, Béthune was an important railway junction and command centre for the British Canadian Corps and Indian Expeditionary Force, as well as the 33rd. Casualty Station.
The town initially suffered little damage until the second phase of the Ludendorff Offensive in April 1918, when German forces reached Locon, 5 km (3 mi) away. On the 21st. May, a bombardment destroyed large parts of the town, killing more than 100 civilians.
Over 3,200 casualties are buried in Béthune Town Cemetery, the Commonwealth section of which was designed by Edwin Lutyens; the majority are British (2,933) or Canadian (55), the remainder German.
Béthune in World War II
Rebuilt after the Great War, Béthune was badly damaged once more by air attacks and house-to-house fighting on the 24th. to the 26th. May 1940 when it was captured by the SS Panzer Division Totenkopf.
The Totenkopf suffered heavy casualties, and anger at their losses played a role in the Le Paradis Massacre on the 27th. May, when 97 members of the Royal Norfolk Regiment were shot after surrendering. During the World War II, many townspeople were deported to work in Germany.
Béthune was officially liberated on the 4th. September 1944.
Visé Paris
The reference to 'Visé Paris' is followed by a unique reference number. This means that the image has been inspected by the military authorities in the French capital and deemed not to be a security risk.
'Visé Paris' signifies that the card was published during or soon after the end of the Great War.
A Soldiers' Song
Béthune is featured in a soldiers' song from the Great War:
'You'll see from the La Bassée Road,
on any summer's day,
The children herding nanny goats,
the women making hay.
You'll see the soldiers, khaki-clad,
in column and platoon,
Come swinging up La Bassée Road
from billets in Béthune.
There's hay to save and corn to cut,
but harder work by far
Awaits the soldier boys who reap the
harvest fields of war.
You'll see them swinging up the road
where women work at hay,
The straight long road - La Bassée Road -
on any summer day.
The night breeze sweeps La Bassée
Road, the night-dews wet the hay,
The boys are coming back again,
a straggling crowd are they.
The column's lines are broken, there
are gaps in the platoon,
They'll not need many billets now, for
soldiers in Béthune,
For many boys, good lusty boys, who
marched away so fine,
Have now got little homes of clay
beside the firing line.
Good luck to them, God speed to them,
the boys who march away,
A-singing up La Bassée Road each
sunny, summer day'.

I have had photographs published several times in the context of scientific research. With my image "Panelakovy Svet" being used in a recent book on Canadian intellectual Marshall McLuhan, I feel I have now made a real artistic contribution.
Also of note, my photograph of the extremely rare Ontario shrub Celtis tenuifolia has been used on this very nice website on the wildlife of the Trent-Severn Waterway. My photograph can be found in the species at risk section under Dwarf Hackberry
Here is a photo taken of one of my porcelain ornaments Gordon and I found buried in the sand at the home of Ret. Admiral and Mrs. Jim Lisanby in Pascagoula. We saw the destruction to their lovely old home five months after Katrina, and Gordon happened to notice the gold ribbon peeking out of the rubble.
This photo was taken after the piece was found and pulled out of the ground by the Lisanby neighbors who had walked over to check that we were not looters. (I was proud to see them taking good care of their neighborhood, even five months later!). That fragile piece was in perfect condition as you can read in the draft I submitted to the editor.

Mrs Veazey’s lodging house at 6 Royal Crescent.
26th May 1897 Dracula, a novel by Irish author Bram Stoker was published. The town of Whitby has associations with Bram Stoker, as he based much of his Dracula novel here whilst staying in Whitby in 1890.
www.whitbycivicsociety.org.uk/activities/blue-plaques/bra...
Sir George Elliot M.P. (see comment) built this house where he was visited by Bram Stoker. Elliot owned an Egyptian princess mummy which may have inspired Stoker to write The Jewel of Seven Stars, a horror novel published 1903.
"In late July 1890, Bram Stoker made the train journey from London King’s Cross to Whitby and proceeded to Mrs Veazey’s lodging house at 6 Royal Crescent.
The West Cliff would have looked a little different then with no Captain Cook monument (built 1913) but the steps to Khyber Pass had recently been constructed so he may well have walked down them before proceeding over the old ‘drawbridge’ and making his way along Church Street to the 199 steps. There would have been no Caedmon’s Cross (1898) when he reached the summit and as he looked out to see the piers would have been minus their extensions (built 1911-1913). During his stay he walked around the graveyard transcribing over 90 of the gravestones.
A week later Bram was joined by his wife (Florence) and son (Noel), they are known to have visited Mulgrave Woods and Robin Hoods Bay and watched the second annual Water Fete organised by Alderman Pannett.
In the last week of their holiday on 19th August Bram Stoker visited Whitby Museum (then on Pier Road) where he signed the visitor’s book (see image) He also visited the Subscription Library on the floor below. He consulted several books in both libraries which were to influence his work on Dracula.
Much of the detail of Bram Stoker’s holiday is described in chapters 6, 7 and 8 of Dracula, set in Whitby." Whitby Museum
On 20th April 1912 The Irish-born writer Bram Stoker, author of Count Dracula, died at his London home. He was 65. Whitby, was the inspiration for his novel.
After suffering a number of strokes, Stoker died at No. 26 St George's Square, London on 20 April 1912. He was cremated, and his ashes were placed in a display urn at Golders Green Crematorium in north London. After the death of Stoker's son, Irving Noel Stoker in 1961, Irving's ashes were added to that urn. The original plan had been to keep his parents' ashes together, but after Florence Stoker's death, her ashes were scattered at the Gardens of Rest.

Ghali apre la performance di Martin Garrix per Milano Rocks, sabato 10 settembre 2022 all’Ippodromo Snai San Siro.
Fru di The Jackal ha il compito di presentare Ghali e con lui sul palco come ospiti ci sono Axell, Tedua, Digital Astro, Pyrex, Baby Gang e Charlie Charles.
Ghali Amdouni, alias Ghali, è un rapper italiano. Nato a Milano il 21 Maggio 1993 da genitori tunisini, ha sempre vissuto in Italia, nello specifico a Baggio, periferia milanese.
Ha iniziato ad avvicinarsi all'hip hop utilizzando lo pseudonimo Fobia, mutato successivamente in Ghali Foh. Nel 2011 ha fondato i Troupe D'Elite, gruppo nel quale erano presenti anche il rapper Er Nyah (ora conosciuto come Ernia), la cantante Maite e il produttore Fonzie (ora conosciuto come Fawzi).
Il 26 Gennaio 2018 Ghali ha pubblicato il suo singolo Cara Italia, brano cult che ha superato le 128milioni di visualizzazioni su YouTube, venendo certificato triplo disco di platino nel giro di un mese e restando stabilmente ai vertici delle classifiche di airplay del paese per settimane. Un successo straordinario che segna il coronamento di un percorso lungo 4 anni che porta Ghali alla ribalta come vero e proprio riferimento della musica italiana ed europea.
Gianluca Colucci, in arte Fru è un attore e comico italiano nato nel 1995. Fru è uno dei membri del gruppo comico The Jackal insieme a Simone Ruzzo, Ciro Priello, Fabio Balsamo, Claudia Napolitano e Aurora Leone.
Arrivato nel gruppo comico solamente nel 2016, undici anni dopo la fondazione della società di produzione The Jackal, Fru nel 2020 è entrato a far parte del cast della nuova serie italiana originale Netflix in collaborazione con i The Jackal, insieme a Fabio Balsamo, Generazione 56K e nel 2021 è uno dei comici in gara nel comedy show di Amazon, LOL: Chi ride è fuori e nel 2022 è in coppia con Aurora Leone nella nuova edizione di Pechino Express 2022 – La Rotta dei sultani.
Axell è nato in Senegal, ma a 12 anni si è trasferito a Torino nel quartiere Barriera di Milano. Parla francese e italiano, due lingue che si mischiano nelle sue canzoni e che gli danno un sapore internazionale, transalpino, ma unito alla fame, alla rabbia e a quel rap italiano che inevitabilmente ha assorbito nel quartiere torinese dove è cresciuto. Suona il pianoforte e la tromba, ama il rap, ma ascolta anche musica classica, la sua ultima canzone, Que Pasa, è stata condivisa anche dal calciatore interista Hachraf Hakimi. Le sue peculiarità artistiche hanno attirato l’attenzione di Ghali ed Axell ha firmato per Sto Records e ha pubblicato Que Pasa.
Tedua, pseudonimo di Mario Molinari (Genova, 21 febbraio 1994[2]), è un rapper italiano. Precedentemente noto come Incubo o Duate, è uno dei componenti di Wild Bandana, collettivo musicale genovese di cui fanno parte anche Izi, Vaz Tè, Guesan e Ill Rave.
Digital Astro, al secolo Rida Amaouch, è un artista classe 2000. Nasce ad Acireale da genitori marocchini e comincia ad avere contatti con la musica sin dalla tenera età avvicinandosi a diversi generi che lo porteranno a creare uno stile molto personale. Nel 2017 conosce il producer Sadturs che si rivelerà essere una figura chiave nel suo cammino e con il quale formerà la più classica delle coppie rapper-producer.
Nel 2020 viene notato proprio da Ghali che, intuendone le grandi potenzialità, decide di inserirlo nella cantera di Sto Records facendogli firmare il suo primo contratto. I suoi primi singoli ufficiali “Preghiera per il blocco” e “Tutto Passa” vengono fin da subito apprezzati dal pubblico che iniziano a conoscere il mondo di Digital Astro. Questo ruota attorno al racconto delle difficoltà che i ragazzi delle nuove generazioni devono affrontare.
Dark Pyrex, detto anche Principe Pyrex o Prynce, è il letterato della Dark Polo Gang. Il suo vero nome è Dylan Thomas Cerulli ed è nato nel 1994 da padre romano e madre afro-americana di New York.
Incontra Dark Side, Tony Effe e Wayne da adolescente a scuola. Inizia a rappare con loro per gioco, finché Sick Luke, figlio di Duke Montana, li convince a fare le cose sul serio confezionando i primi beat. Nasce così Dark Polo Gang, collettivo che inizialmente è addirittura un quintetto, insieme a un altro ragazzo romano, Bangerz.
Baby Gang, pseudonimo di Zaccaria Mouhib, è un rapper italiano di origini marocchine. Nasce a Lecco nel 2001 e a partire dagli undici anni passa gli anni tra carceri minorili e comunità educative.
Nel 2018 pubblica Street, il suo primo singolo, ma poco dopo viene arrestato e condannato alla detenzione nel carcere minorile Beccaria di Milano, dal quale esce grazie all’intervento di Don Claudio Burgio che lo porta nella propria comunità. Nel 2019 pubblica i singoli Fuck la Pula, Educazione e Cella 1. Ottiene un discreto successo nel 2020 grazie alla collaborazione con la 167 Gang nel singolo Baby Gang e Bimbi Soldato con Sacky. Dopo una lunga serie di singoli, nel 2021 pubblica prima EP1, progetto di 7 brani con le collaborazioni di Il Ghost, Omar, Neima Ezza, Rondodasosa e Escomar. Per fine agosto è previsto Delinquente, il suo primo disco ufficiale pubblicato per Warner Music Italy.
Charlie Charles, pseudonimo di Paolo Alberto Monachetti, è un produttore discografico e disc jockey italiano, ritenuto tra i principali esponenti della scena hip hop e trap italiana degli anni 2010.
Charlie Charles inizia la sua carriera ascoltando e producendo musica elettronica e techno, dedicandosi anche alla composizione di colonne sonore. Dopo diversi cambi di scuola, abbandonò le superiori per dedicarsi solo alla musica, creando a Seguro un proprio studio di registrazione. Intorno allo stesso periodo conosce il rapper Sfera Ebbasta, intraprendendo una collaborazione musicale culminata nel 2015 con l'album in studio XDVR. Il 2015 segna inoltre la collaborazione con Marracash per l'etichetta discografica indipendente Roccia Music, producendo vari brani e album con Ghali, Tedua, Izi, Gué Pequeno e la Dark Polo Gang, oltre a Sfera Ebbasta.
Published in the year 2000 this CD from Rhino Records includes recordings from 1947 to 1961 in chronological order.
His guitar playing style never fails to amaze, there's nothing like it. How great these old blues masters were gets revealed when you hear how lame it sounds when Eric Clapton is trying to emulate them. And Eric's not a beginner on the guitar.
