Who is Daniel Deronda?
Daniel Deronda is a novel by George Eliot, first published in 1876. It was the last novel she completed and the only one set in the contemporary Victorian society of her day. Its mixture of social satire and moral searching, along with a sympathetic rendering of Jewish proto-Zionist and Kaballistic ideas has made it a controversial final statement of one of the greatest of Victorian novelists.
The novel has been filmed three times, once as a silent feature and twice for television. It has also been adapted for the stage, most notably in a production in the 1960s by the 69 Theatre Company in Manchester with Vanessa Redgrave as Gwendolen Harleth.
Daniel Deronda — The ward of the wealthy Sir Hugo Mallinger and hero of the novel, Deronda has a tendency to help others at a cost to himself. At the start of the novel, he has failed to win a scholarship at Cambridge because of his focus on helping a friend, has been travelling abroad, and has just started studying law. He often wonders about his birth and whether or not he is a gentleman. As he moves more and more among the world-within-a-world of the Jews of the novel he begins to identify with their cause in direct proportion to the unfolding revelations of his ancestry. Eliot used the story of Moses as part of her inspiration for Deronda. As Moses was a Jew brought up as an Egyptian who ultimately led his people to the Promised Land, so Deronda is a Jew brought up as an Englishman who ends the novel with a plan to do the same. Deronda's name presumably indicates that his ancestors lived in the Spanish city of Ronda, prior to the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492.

Postmarked February 8, 1924, at San Diego, Calif.; addressed to Miss D. B. Davis at Riverside Park in Willamantic, Connecticut.
Message:
Dear Sister,
We will arrive in San Diego tomorrow morning, so I am writing this tonight, Thursday. It is beginning to get warm. We shall be wearing whites in a few days. Will write again at Panama.

The Postcard
A postcard that was published by M. Rieder of Los Angeles, California. The card was produced in Germany.
The card was posted in San Francisco in 1907, although the stamp has been removed along with the rest of the date. The card was posted to:
Miss Brooks,
1, New Charles Street,
City Road,
London E.C.,
England.
There was no message on the back of the card, as the recipient's name and address stretched across the undivided back. 1907 was, incidentally, the year in which a divided back for postcards was introduced in the United States.
If anyone out there can identify the mission, please leave a note.

The Boerentoren
The Boerentoren (English: "Farmer's Tower"; officially the KBC Tower, originally the Torengebouw van Antwerpen) is a historic tall building in Antwerp, Belgium.
The building was designed by Jan Van Hoenacker.
Constructed between 1929 and 1932 and originally 87.5 m (287 ft) high, it remains the tallest building and the second tallest structure of any kind in the city (after the Gothic Cathedral of Our Lady).
At the time of construction it was the second tallest building in Europe by roof height (after the Telefónica Building).
Designed in Art-deco style, the Boerentoren is one of Europe's very first tall buildings.
The building suffered V-1 damage during WW2.
In 1954 the tower was extended with an antenna which reached to a total height of 112.5 m (369 ft).
The Boerentoren remained the tallest in Belgium until 1960.
In 1976, the roof of the tower was raised by 8.3 m (27 ft), and the current roof height is therefore 95.8 m (314 ft).
It is currently ranked the 21st. tallest building in the country.
Antwerp
Antwerp (French: Anvers) is a city in Belgium, and is the capital of Antwerp province in Flanders. It has a population of over 520,000, and Its metropolitan area houses around 1,200,000 people, coming in second behind Brussels.
Antwerp is on the River Scheldt, linked to the North Sea by the Westerschelde estuary. It is about 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of Brussels, and about 15 kilometres (9 mi) from the Dutch border.
The Port of Antwerp is one of the biggest in the world, ranking second in Europe, and within the top 20 globally.
Antwerp was also the location of the world's oldest stock exchange building, originally built in 1531 and re-built in 1872. it has been derelict since 1997.
Antwerp has long been an important city in the Low Countries, both economically and culturally, especially before the Spanish Fury (1576) in the Dutch Revolt.
The inhabitants of Antwerp are nicknamed Sinjoren, after the Spanish honorific señor and French seigneur, "lord", referring to the Spanish noblemen who ruled the city in the 17th century.
Today Antwerp is a major trade and cultural centre, and is the world's second most multi-cultural city (after Amsterdam), home to 170 nationalities.
It is also known as "the diamond capital of the world" for its large diamond district.

Located about an hour north of Belville, I was there for the 4-dog 4 mile and 6-dog 6 mile races on February 1st. 2009. The article was written about the Jamaican Dogsled Team founder, Danny Melville and contains a photo I took at the Haliburton Highlands Dogsled Derby in 2008.

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.
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.
If the 170m rounds were on average two feet long, and if they were laid end to end, they would stretch for 64,394 miles (103,632 kilometres); the line would go round the equator over two and a half times. 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!'
