Betty Blythe was Born Elizabeth Blythe Slaughter. She was an American actress best known for her dramatic roles in exotic silent films.
Brunette, buxom matinee idol Betty Blythe capitalised on the 'roaring 20's' infatuation with exotic screen sirens to achieve a brief period of stardom. She was notoriously one of the first actresses to ever appear nude (or in various stages of undress) on screen.
After touring Europe and the States, she entered films in 1918 at the Vitagraph Studios in Brooklyn, then she was brought to Hollywood's Fox studio as a replacement for actress Theda Bara.
As famous for her revealing costumes as for her dramatic skills, she became a star in such exotic films as 'The Queen of Sheba' (1921), 'Chu-Chin-Chow' (1923) and released by MGM in the US 1925.
Her first Sound Movie was 'Domestic Troubles' (1928) for Warner Brothers.
She appeared in a number of Sound Movies through the 1940's, but uncredited.
She was also seen to good advantage in less revealing films like 'Nomads of the North' (1920) with Lon Chaney and In Hollywood with 'Potash and Perlmutter' (1924), produced by Samuel Goldwyn.
Other roles were as an opera star, unbilled in Garbo's 'The Mysterious Lady'. She continued to work as a character actress. One of her last roles was a small uncredited role in a crowd scene in 1964's 'My Fair Lady'.
She was married to the movie director Paul Scardon from 1919 until his death in 1954.
Betty Blythe died of a heart attack in Woodland Hills, California in 1972, aged 78.
Lower Slaughter é um pequeno vilarejo, próximo de Bourton-on-the-Water. Nós passamos por lá duas vezes. Na primeira, fomos a pé.
Lower Slaughter is a village in the English county of Gloucestershire located in the Cotswold district some four miles south west of the town of Stow-on-the-Wold.
The village is built on both banks of the River Eye. At the west end of the village there is an old water mill with an undershot waterwheel and a chimney for additional steam power. The anglican parish church is dedicated to St. Mary.
These photos were taken in a slaughterhouse in rural Tennessee over a two year period. They show the hard work of a family owned slaughterhouse competing with industrial based slaughterhouses. I used many different film and camera setups. These are from the many rolls of black and white film shot with either a Nikon FM2 or a Yashica T4. I shot in either Tri-X 400 or T-Max 400. The shots were taken on breaks or at the homes of the workers. All Rights Reserved, Copyright Joshua Harriman 2008.

Upper Slaughter was identified by author Arthur Mee as one of the 32 Thankful Villages, although more recent work by Norman Thorpe, Tom Morgan and Rod Morris has revealed a total of 50. Meaning the small number of villages in England and Wales which lost no men in World War I the term Thankful Village was popularised by Arthur Mee in the 1930s. In Enchanted Land (1936), the introductory volume to "The King’s England" series of guides, he wrote "that a Thankful Village was one which had lost no men in the Great War because all those who left to serve came home again."

Skinning slaughtered cows at the entrance to an Amish barn, Central Michigan, USA [No model release; editorial licensing only]
After the blowfish was selected, bargained for and purchased, we took it to an area of the market where they did all the preparation.
Customers gathered around to watch their handiwork (and I guess to make sure they were correctly removing the poisonous parts; although I myself wouldn't be able to tell). They were skilled and fast. One person did all the de-skinning and gutting, another did the sashimi prep.

Ste-Chapelle, Île de la Cité, Paris, France
St-Chapelle, on l'Île de la Cité in the centre of Paris, is a fabulous gothic jewel built by Louis IX (later St Louis) to house about thirty different relics which had made their way into Europe from the Holy land during the crusades. These included Christ's crown of thorns, the sponge used to give him vinegar, and a large part of the cross itself.
The chapel was consecrated on Easter Sunday 1248. It had taken about ten years to build. The most significant feature is the vast range of mid-13th century glass in the upper chapel, the finest collection in the world. During the chapel's time as a reliquary, only the royal family were ever allowed access to the upper chapel.
The glass depicts events from the Old Testament which lead up to the birth of Christ, and one final range depicts the story of the relics and the miracles they were believed to have facilitated. Since 2006 there has been an ongoing programme of restoration of the glass, which has had a dazzling effect, and is now nearly complete.
St-Chapelle cost a fabulous amount of money to construct, but even so this was much less than it cost Louis IX to buy the relics from the Emperor of Constantinople.
