Saint-Maclou
The Church of Saint-Maclou is a Roman Catholic church in Rouen. Its spire reaches a height of 83 metres. Saint-Maclou is one of the best examples of the Flamboyant style of Gothic architecture in France.
Saint-Maclou, along with Rouen Cathedral, the Palais de Justice (also Flamboyant), and the Church of St.-Ouen, form a famous ensemble of significant Gothic buildings in Rouen.
Rouen
Rouen is a city on the River Seine in northern France, and is relatively close to the English Channel. Formerly one of the largest and most prosperous cities of medieval Europe, the population of the metropolitan area is 702,945 (2018). People from Rouen are known as Rouennais.
“Upon approaching Rouen one is sure to be struck
by the insolent daring of its situation. Lying on a
sloping plain beside the river, it seems to disdain the
well-nigh impregnable site afforded by the steep cliffs
which rise just to the northeast.
The history of the city bears out the audacity of its
location. Through all the centuries, its inhabitants
concerned themselves so continuously in conquering
other peoples that little time was left in which to
consider the security of their own homes.”
-- Charles Hitchcock Sherrill, Stained Glass Tours in France (1908).
Rouen was the seat of the Exchequer of Normandy during the Middle Ages. It was one of the capitals of the Anglo-Norman dynasties, which ruled both England and large parts of modern France from the 11th. to the 15th. centuries.
From the 13th. century onwards, the city experienced a remarkable economic boom, thanks in particular to the development of textile factories and river trade. Claimed by both the French and the English during the Hundred Years' War, it was in Rouen that Joan of Arc was tried and burned alive.
Severely damaged by a wave of bombing in 1944, Rouen nevertheless regained its economic dynamism in the post-war period thanks to its industrial sites and busy seaport, which is the fifth largest in France.
Endowed with a prestige established during the medieval era, and with a long architectural heritage in its historical monuments, Rouen is an important cultural capital. Several renowned establishments are located here, such as the Museum of Fine Arts, the Secq des Tournelles Museum, and Rouen Cathedral.
“Perhaps the most characteristic feature of Rouen
when viewed from a distance is the great number
of its spires that shoot up above the housetops,
earning for it the sobriquet of the City of Churches.”
-- Charles Hitchcock Sherrill, Stained Glass Tours in France (1908).
Sadly not all of those churches are still there because of the ravages of war.
Seat of an archdiocese, Rouen also hosts a court of appeal and a university. Every four to six years, Rouen becomes the showcase for a large gathering of sailing ships called "L'Armada"; this event makes the city an occasional capital of the maritime world.
Rouen Cathedral
Rouen Cathedral was commenced in the 12th. Century on the site of an earlier structure. It has a Roman crypt.
The Butter Tower dates from the 16th. century. The name of the Tour de Beurre comes from the fact that butter was banned during Lent, and those who wished to carry on eating it had to donate 6 Deniers Tournois towards the building of the tower. Practically everyone in Rouen must have carried on eating butter in order to fund a tower like that!
The Victorian cast-iron Lantern Tower in the centre of the building made the cathedral the tallest building in the world from 1876 until 1880, when it was overtaken by Cologne Cathedral.
The Lantern Tower was designed by the architect Jean-Antoine Alavoine who proposed the use of cast iron, a modern material for the time, because it was less combustible than wood, and lighter than stone. The Lantern Tower took 50 years to construct. The 151 metre height of the spire still makes Rouen Cathedral the tallest cathedral in France.
The presence of a lantern tower at the crossing of the transept is a frequent feature in churches in Normandy (St. Ouen in Rouen, and Bayeux) and in England (Gloucester, Salisbury, and Winchester).
The lantern is in a bulge in the ironwork near the top of the spire, which is surmounted by a weathercock.
The Cathedral holds the heart of Richard the Lionheart. His bowels were buried within the church of the Château de Châlus-Chabrol in the Limousin. The cathedral seems to have got the better end of that particular deal!
Claude Monet painted a series of studies of the cathedral's façade 1894. Roy Lichtenstein also made a series of pictures of the front of the building.
The Cathedral has had to put up with a lot of wilful destruction during its lifetime:
- The Calvinists damaged much of what they could easily reach during the religious wars of the 16th. Century - the furniture, tombs, stained glass and statuary.
- The French State nationalised the building in the 18th. Century, and sold some of its furniture and statues to make money. The chapel fences were melted down to make guns.
- In WW2 the Cathedral was first bombed in 1944, taking 7 bombs. The bombs narrowly missed destroying a key pillar of the Lantern Tower, but damaged most of the south aisle, and destroyed two medieval rose windows. One of the bombs was fortunately a dud and failed to explode.
- As a consequence of a subsequent WW II bombing, the north tower, on the left of the façade, was entirely burned. During the fire the stonework calcified and the bells melted, leaving molten metal on the floor. The cathedral is still being restored after the extensive damage incurred during World War II.
Also, during the violent storm of December 1999, a copper-clad wooden turret weighing 26 tons fell into the Cathedral and damaged the choir and the stalls. The three other turrets were removed for maintenance and safety purposes before being replaced in 2012.
The Execution of Jeanne d'Arc
Jeanne d'Arc was executed not far from the Cathedral in the Vieux-Marché on Wednesday the 30th. May 1431.
The famous depiction of 19 year old Joan of Arc's execution showing her on top of a pile of wood and straw is wrong.
The site for her execution comprised a stake at the centre of a large ring of wood, with a gap left for Joan to be led to the stake. Once she was tied to the stake and the gap closed, she was hidden from sight.
One authority has suggested that her body would have burnt in the following sequence: calves, thighs and hands, torso and forearms, breasts, upper chest and face.
However in all likelihood she would have died from heatstroke, loss of blood plasma and carbon dioxide poisoning before the fire attacked the upper parts of her body.
After Jeanne had expired, the English exposed her charred body so that no-one could claim that she had escaped alive, then burned her body twice more to reduce it to ashes in order to prevent the collection of relics.
They then cast her remains into the Seine.
A modern church now stands on the site of her execution.
In 1884, Silas Farmer published his 1,024 page book History of Detroit and Michigan. Due to its age, the book is in the public domain. In the chapter on Architecture there are a number of engravings based on photographs of houses in Detroit. Quite a few were in Brush Park. I wonder about the decision making process as to which homes to feature in the book; some pretty impressive ones were left out including the first Ransom Gillis house.
Some of the houses depicted in the drawings still exist, others have fallen to the ravages of time. I have not seen photographs of all of the latter.
I have compiled the Brush Park images with the corresponding Sanborn Insurance maps from 1890+. (I could not find Brush Park on the early Sanborn maps digitized in the Library of Congress.) I had to stitch together several image to form a map of all of Brush Park (some of the images did not line up exactly so some of the streets are a bit wonky). The pinkish color of the houses on the map indicate that they are of solid brick construction (not just brick veneer like post-WW2 houses). In viewing some of the previously ruined houses, I could see that the walls were often three bricks thick; they did not collapse even after the woodwork inside rotted. Brush Park was one of the few neighborhoods at the time that could boast this type of construction for the vast majority of the houses. The few houses in yellow are of wood frame construction.
Two of the houses did not correspond to the addresses on the map and a third house may have been replaced.
1. The house at 500 Woodward appears to have been demolished between 1884 and the construction of the First Presbyterian church in 1889.
2. The house pictured in the book as 55 High Street East appears to match the houses packed together on that part of the street but there is no 55 between the 53 and 57 addresses. Perhaps the house was divided into a duplex and given new street numbers?
3. The John Pridgeon house at 456 Woodward may have been torn down and replaced with a duplex at 456/458 Woodward by the time the Sanborn maps used here where made. An image of the house in the Detroit Public Library Burton Collection has a notation "(torn down)". This house may have existed for only about 20 years.
Two parts of Brush Park's periphery sections were the first to go. The mansions along Woodward Avenue were torn down to make way for commercial structure and churches. High Street near the south end of Brush Park lost all of its houses and the street itself when the freeway system bulldozed its way through Detroit.

The Postcard
A Hi-Gloss Series postcard that was published by Bamforth & Co. Ltd. of Holmfirth, Yorkshire. The card was printed in England.
The card was posted in Bridlington, but unfortunately the stamp has been removed, along with the date of posting.
The card was sent to:
Misses E & E Williams,
11, King Street,
Failsworth,
Manchester.
The message on the back of the card was as follows:
"Dear Emma and Eva,
This is where we spent
the morning, in the Floral
Hall as it was very cold &
stormy.
Weather changeable, but
having a very nice and
interesting time.
Hoping to go for a sail
and a swim to Scarborough.
Christian greetings,
L & W Scott and family."
Bridlington
Bridlington is a coastal town on the Holderness Coast of the North Sea, situated in the East Riding of Yorkshire approximately 28 miles (45 km) north of Hull and 34 miles (55 km) east of York. The Gypsey Race river runs through the town and emerges into the North Sea in the town harbour.
In the 2011 Census the population was 35,369.
Bridlington is a minor sea fishing port with a working harbour, and is well known for its shellfish. It has a mix of small businesses across the manufacturing, retail and service sectors with its prime trade being tourism during the summer months.
The origins of the town are uncertain, but archaeological evidence shows habitation in the Bronze Age and Roman periods. The settlement at the Norman conquest was called Bretlinton, but has also gone by the names of Berlington, Brellington and Britlington, before settling on its modern name in the 19th century.
-- Bridlington in World War II
During the Second World War, Bridlington suffered many air-raids with a significant number of deaths and extensive bomb damage.
-- David Hockney
Artist David Hockney owned a house in Bridlington, at which an assistant drank a cleaning product and died in March 2013.
Wallace Hartley and The Titanic
There is a blue plaque in Bridlington for Wallace Hartley. He led an orchestra in the town in 1902, although he is particularly famous as leader of the band that played as the Titanic sank in April 1912.
Wallace Henry Hartley (2nd. June 1878 – 15th. April 1912) was an English violinist and bandleader on the Titanic during its maiden voyage.
He became famous for leading the eight-member band as the ship sank on the 15th. April 1912. He died at the age of 33, along with the rest of the band, when the ship went down.
-- Wallace Hartley - The Early Years
Wallace Hartley was born and raised in Colne, Lancashire. His father, Albion Hartley, was the choirmaster and Sunday school superintendent at Bethel Independent Methodist Chapel, on Burnley Road where the family attended services.
Albion introduced the hymn "Nearer, My God, to Thee" to the congregation.
Wallace studied at Colne's Methodist day school, sang in Bethel's choir, and learned to play the violin from a fellow congregation member.
After leaving school, Hartley started work with the Craven & Union Bank in Colne. When his family moved to Huddersfield, Hartley joined the Huddersfield Philharmonic Orchestra.
In 1903, Wallace left home to join the municipal orchestra in Bridlington, where he stayed for six years.
-- Wallace Hartley and the White Star Line
Wallace later moved to Dewsbury, West Yorkshire and in 1909, he joined the Cunard Line as a musician, serving on the ocean liners RMS Lucania, RMS Lusitania and RMS Mauretania.
Whilst serving on the Mauretania, the employment of Cunard musicians was transferred to the music agency C.W. & F.N. Black, which supplied musicians for Cunard and the White Star Line.
This transfer changed Hartley's onboard status, as he was no longer counted as a member of the crew, but rather as a passenger, albeit one accommodated in second-class accommodation at the agency's expense.
It later transpired that neither the shipping company nor the music agency had insured the musicians, with each claiming it was the other's responsibility.
In April 1912, Hartley was assigned to be the bandmaster for the White Star Line ship RMS Titanic.
Wallace was at first hesitant to leave his fiancée, Maria Robinson, to whom he had recently proposed, but Hartley decided that working on the maiden voyage of the Titanic would give him possible contacts for future work.
-- The Sinking of the Titanic
After the Titanic hit an iceberg on the night of the 14th. April 1912 and began to sink, Hartley and his fellow band members started playing music to help keep the passengers calm as the crew loaded the lifeboats.
Many of the survivors said that Hartley and the band continued to play until the very end. A newspaper at the time reported:
"The part played by the orchestra on board
the Titanic in her last dreadful moments will
rank among the noblest in the annals of
heroism at sea."
Though the final song played by the band is unknown, "Nearer, My God, to Thee" has gained popular acceptance.
Walter Lord's book A Night to Remember (1955) popularised wireless officer Harold Bride's account of hearing the song "Autumn".
Ellwand Moody, a musician on the Mauretania alongside Hartley, claimed that Hartley had said he would play either "Nearer, My God, to Thee" or "Our God, Our Help in Ages Past" if he were ever on a sinking ship.
-- After the Sinking
Hartley's body was recovered almost two weeks after the sinking. Several press reports confirmed that Wallace was found fully dressed with his music case strapped to his body.
His body was returned to Liverpool, where Hartley's father met the ship and brought his son's body back to his home town of Colne.
The funeral took place on the 18th. May 1912. One thousand people attended Hartley's funeral, while an estimated 30,000–40,000 lined the route of his funeral procession.
Hartley was laid to rest in the Keighley Road cemetery, Colne, where a 10 feet (3.0 m) high headstone, containing a carved violin at its base, was erected in his honour.
Frederick Cayley Robinson's 1912 oil painting The Outward Bound (see below) shows a youth in a boat watching as Titanic leaves Southampton. It was commissioned in memory of Hartley, and given to Leeds Art Gallery by the Leeds Professional Musicians. The painting was unveiled in the City Art Gallery by the Lord Mayor of Leeds on the 23rd. December 1912.
Additionally a memorial to Hartley, topped by his bust (see below), was erected in 1915 outside what was then the town library in Colne. This was later moved slightly to make way for a World War One memorial.
Hartley's large Victorian terraced house in West Park Street, Dewsbury bears a blue plaque.
In 2001, Hartley's name was still being used when naming new streets and housing in the town of Colne. In 2008, the pub chain J D Wetherspoon named a newly-opened pub, (the building having been the long-standing King's Head Hotel) in Colne after the bandleader.
-- Memorials to the Band
A memorial to the Titanic musicians as a whole was erected in Broken Hill, in New South Wales. The people of Broken Hill were so moved by the bravery of the ship's bandsmen that they launched a public appeal in order to create a memorial to them.
The memorial, in the shape of a broken pillar, was unveiled in December 1913.
The City of Ballarat, Victoria, Australia, has an Edwardian bandstand to commemorate the musicians lost. It was erected by the Ballarat Council with funds raised by the Victorian Band Association, and citizens of the area.
The Titanic Memorial bandstand, was unveiled on the 22nd. October 1915. Every year on the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, a band plays "Nearer, My God, To Thee", in the bandstand.
-- Wallace Hartley's Violin
In March 2013, after two years of in-depth trace analysis by The Forensic Science Service on behalf of auctioneers Henry Aldridge & Son, and seven years of evidence-gathering by the Wiltshire-based auction house, it was announced that a violin found in a British man's attic inside a leather case with the initials "W. H. H." was the instrument used by Hartley during the ship's last moments.
The identification was helped by an engraving on the German-made violin which his fiancée (Maria Robinson) had placed on the instrument in 1910 which read:
'For Wallace on the occasion of
our engagement from Maria.'
Further tests by a silver expert from the Gemmological Association of Great Britain confirmed that the plate on the base of the violin was original, and that the metal engraving done on behalf of Maria Robinson was contemporary with those made in 1910.
A CT scan enabled experts to view 3D images of the inside of the violin. The fine detail of the scan meant that experts could examine the construction, interior and the glue holding the instrument together showing signs of possible restoration.
While researching the origins of the violin, the auctioneers and Christian Tennyson-Ekeberg, biographer of Wallace Hartley and author of Nearer, Our God, to Thee: The Biography of the Titanic Bandmaster, discovered the transcript of a telegram sent to the Provincial Secretary of Nova Scotia, Canada, dated 19th. July 1912 in the diary of Hartley's grieving fiancée in which she stated:
"I would be most grateful if you could
convey my heartfelt thanks to all who
have made possible the return of my
late fiancé's violin."
After Maria Robinson's death in 1939, her sister gave the violin to the Bridlington Salvation Army and told its leader, a Major Renwick, about the instrument's association with the Titanic.
The violin was later passed on to a violin teacher, who gave it to the current owner's mother. Henry Aldridge & Sons stated:
"It's been in the same family
for over 70 years."
Craig Sopin, the owner of one of the world's largest collections of Titanic memorabilia, a leading Titanic expert, and a general skeptic of Titanic claims, stated that:
"The violin is Hartley's and
not a fraud."
The Hartley violin was exhibited in Belfast at the shipyard where the RMS Titanic was built, and in the United States at Titanic Branson and Titanic Pigeon Forge museums.
It was sold by auction house Henry Aldridge & Son in Devizes, Wiltshire, on the 19th. October 2013 for £900,000 ($1.7 million).
The violin now resides at Titanic Belfast Museum and is open to public viewing. It has two large cracks, and is no longer playable.
After seeing the violin auctioned at Aldridges, British folk singer/songwriter Reg Meuross was inspired to write a song about the story of the violin, "The Band Played Sweet Marie", that was released on his album England Green and England Grey in 2014.
The story of Wallace Hartley and his violin is also the inspiration behind the song "Titanically" written by Canadian singer/songwriter Heather Rankin and David Tyson, with a music video directed by American-Canadian filmmaker Thom Fitzgerald.
The music video was released the 2nd. June 2017, to honour Hartley's birthday.

Summary
Folly and observatory, now holiday accommodation, erected 1830-31, by Robert Vining for the Reverend John Richards Clavell. Re-sited and restored in the early C21.
Reasons for Designation
Clavell Tower, which was erected in 1830-31 for the Reverend Clavell and was re-sited and restored in 2006-08, is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons: * Architectural interest: the tower, which was sympathetically restored in the early C21, has a well-executed and striking design; * Historic interest: as an influential structure which has inspired a number of prominent authors, including Thomas Hardy and Baroness James.
History
Clavell Tower (Clavel Tower on the First and Second Edition Ordnance Survey maps of 1889 and 1902) stands in a prominent position on the cliff above Kimmeridge Bay. It was built in 1830-31 for the Reverend John Richards Clavell who took the name Clavell when he inherited the Smedmore Estate (Smedmore House, listed at Grade II*) in 1818. The tower, by John Vining of Weymouth, who was also responsible for the octagonal Spa House (Grade II) at Nottington just to the north of Weymouth in 1830 which may have influenced his designs for the former. Clavell Tower was possibly erected to celebrate the Reverend Clavell’s 70th birthday, and was described in the Dorset County Chronicle on 21st July 1831 ‘as elegant a building as the county of Dorset can boast of.’ Although principally a folly, the Chronicle also suggests that it was an observatory. The Reverend Clavell died in 1833 and the estate passed to his niece, Louisa Mansel (née Pleydell). From about the 1880s until just after the First World War the tower was used as a lookout station for the coastguards, and on occasions as a holiday let, but it was then left vacant and became increasingly derelict. From the mid-C20 erosion to the cliff face threatened the stability of the tower which perched precariously above the bay, and in 2006-08 it was dismantled, re-located and restored, with the relevant consents, to a new location 25m to the north-east.
Clavell Tower has been the source of inspiration for poets and writers over the intervening centuries since it was built. Thomas Hardy used one of his own drawings of the tower as the frontispiece for his Wessex Poems, whilst Dorset poet William Barnes used the tower as inspiration for The Leady’s Tower in his Hwomely Rhymes, A Second Collection of Poems in Dorset Dialect, published in 1859. More recently, the crime writer P D James (later Baroness James), set The Black Tower, one of her novels here; while Bill Bryson, unimpressed by the tower’s dumpy looks, acknowledges in Notes from a Small Island that ‘..somehow Kimmeridge wouldn’t seem Kimmeridge without it’.
Details
Folly and observatory, now (2014) holiday accommodation. erected 1830-31, by Robert Vining for the Reverend John Richards Clavell. Re-sited and restored in the early C21. MATERIALS: constructed of rendered brick and coursed local stone rubble, with ashlar dressings, on a concrete foundation. Early-C21 timber sash windows.
PLAN: a circular tower of three storeys plus a semi-basement.
EXTERIOR: the basement breaks forwards of the rest of the tower. It has strip pilasters and stone mullioned windows, with an entrance to the north-east side which is flanked by Tuscan columns that support the two flights of cantilevered Portland stone steps leading to the ground floor. The ground floor is surrounded by a Tuscan colonnade of twelve columns which each align with the pilasters below. It has a simple entablature surmounted by a parapet decorated with pierced quatrefoils. There is a round-headed doorway and three round-headed windows to the ground floor. The two upper storeys are divided by a stone stringcourse, and each has four round-arched windows which are aligned with the cardinal points. The parapet has false machicolations and a frieze of pierced quatrefoils.
Prior to restoration, the staircase and roof timbers were no longer extant, but although the floors were badly rotted the teak joists largely survive with some are replacements. The stairs and the roof timbers have been replaced, and new fireplaces and joinery introduced. The basement retains its original floor of Purbeck stone.

Nei giorni immediatamente successivi agli eventi sismici che a maggio hanno colpito la popolazione dell’Emilia Romagna, 14 big della musica italiana hanno deciso di dare il loro sostegno alla popolazione emiliana con un grande e significativo concerto che si svolgerà il 22 settembre al Campovolo di Reggio Emilia.
BIAGIO ANTONACCI, CLAUDIO BAGLIONI, ELISA, TIZIANO FERRO, GIORGIA, LORENZO JOVANOTTI, LIGABUE, LITFIBA, FIORELLA MANNOIA, NEGRAMARO, NOMADI, LAURA PAUSINI (assente perché in dolce attesa), RENATO ZERO e ZUCCHERO, questi i grandi artisti che hanno deciso di esprimere solidarietà alla popolazione colpita dal sisma e di aiutare la raccolta dei fondi per la ricostruzione.
La musica e i suoi protagonisti, come in passato e come è successo con il concerto degli Artisti Emiliani allo Stadio Dall’Ara di Bologna, possono fare cose importanti, possono smuovere le coscienze e non far dimenticare, possono farci sentire uniti.
Il 22 settembre al Campovolo ci sarà l’Italia tutta, centinaia, migliaia di battiti che attraverso la musica diventeranno un solo grande battito, un battito di solidarietà, pieno di speranza, emozioni e voglia di ricominciare e ricostruire.
L’obiettivo dell’evento, a cui gli artisti parteciperanno senza percepire alcun compenso, è devolvere l’intero incasso a uno degli obiettivi primari che verranno sottoposti dalla Regione Emilia Romagna che, con il suo presidente Vasco Errani (nominato commissario per la ricostruzione), è promotrice dell’iniziativa.
A sostenere i costi e a contribuire con ulteriori fondi, saranno alcune tra le più importanti realtà dell’industria privata italiana.

Jinsop
A Branko Documentary Film
Cast: Jinsop Ho, Jinsop Rodriguez, Irlene Castro, Victor Lema
In the 1970's, in Quito, Ecuador, Branko met a Korean-American school friend, Jinsop Ho Odirling.
Jinsop became an overnight teenage sensation when he published in 1973, an LP Record, Mi Oracion.
Jinsop Ho, also recorded a second LP Record.
Jinsop's music, became the anthem of a young generation.
Soon after, Jinsop travelled to the US and disappeared into thin air.
There are no other albums recorded by Jinsop, after 1980.
Some years later, Branko tracked Jinsop to a small Restaurant in Queens, NY and to another Restaurant in Newark NJ.
Branko was able to record Jinsop, interpreting the songs that had stunned a whole generation.
These recordings, are the only complete music videos of Jinsop, now available on the net.
Recently on July 2014, in Ecuador, the second place participant, of a TV Reality Music Program, "Yo me llamo - Ecuador", (My name is - Ecuador), was Alejandro Rodriguez, who has adopted the professional name of Jinsop Rodriguez. He sings and imitates Jinsop Ho.
Branko met Jinsop Rodriguez, on August 2015, at a recent event, in Queens NY, and invited Jinsop Rodriguez to record at the same Restaurant, where two decades ago, he had recorded Jinsop Ho.
Jiinsop Ho, passed away, at a seaside village, in Ayangue, Ecuador, on June 24, 2012
The original trumpet player, from Jinsop Ho's album, Dr. Victor Lema, also appears in this movie.
Special appearance by the actress, Irlene Castro.
Branko thanks Soledad, for her wonderful help, and Jinsop Rodriguez wife, Mariasol.
Thanks also to the radio announcer, Segundo Montesdeoca, and to Jaime Pardo, owner of Sabor Latino Restaurant, in Newark.

Branko: - Nos conocíamos de eventos que hacían los dos colegios.
Después no lo vi por más de veinte años, pero siempre traté de encontrarlo en New York. En una oportunidad vi un anuncio en un bar Ecuatoriano de Bushwick, Brooklyn; pero no pude encontrarlo.
Años después lo encontré en Bares Ecuatorianos de Queens NY y Newark NJ.
Yo hago películas documentario y esta película, es un homenaje a uno de nuestros Grandes, mi amigo, Jinsop Ho.

I was very excited to have one of my afghans published in the "Little Box of Throws". For this collection, search for Jean Leinhauser and Rita Weiss at amazon.com
Two of my photos were published in this scientific textbook in India (April 2010), the storm clouds and heart shaped lightning photos. The clouds photo was used for the cover and numerous other pages and images related to the book. The book was written by Dr. Anu Kapur while a fellow at the Indian Institute of Advanced Study; she is now at the University of Delhi. I had several communications with Dr. Kapur and the publisher and am very pleased how it turned out. I was invited to India for the release of the book but could not attend on my dime! Maybe someday. And indeed I was given full credit for the photos and minor compensation; Sage is an international publisher of many academic books.
The book is listed on Amazon: Vulnerable India and many locations in India.
Funny thing of it was that all I did was look up, see some interesting storm clouds, snap, then from across the world it ends up on a cover of a scientific Disaster book! It is a very academic book so it's distribution is very limited but none the less I am pleased seeing my work used in education.
This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 17th of July 1916.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images and have any stories and information to add please comment below.
