American actress Ava Gardner (1922-1990) was signed to a contract by MGM in 1941 and appeared mainly in small roles until she drew attention with her performance in The Killers (1946). She became one of Hollywood's leading stars and was considered one of the most beautiful women of her day. She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her work in Mogambo (1953). She appeared in several high-profile films from the 1950s to 1970s, and continued to act regularly until 1986, four years before her death at the age of 67.

History
The Black Dog pub, Weymouth is reputed to be the oldest hostelry in the town and one of the last surviving “Saxon Frame” buildings in the country. Build some time in the 16th century, probably during the reign of Elizabeth 1st, it was formerly known as The Dove until Weymouth won the contract to trade with the new colonies of Newfoundland and Labrador.
The landlord (at the time) of this Weymouth pub purchased the first black “Newfoundland Labrador” dog ever seen in the south west from one of the new trading ships from that region. The dog, apparently, brought such an amazing number of curious sightseers from the surrounding area, that the landlord changed the name of the pub in honour of the dog that had brought him so much prosperity to this Weymouth pub.
There is an early 17th century date above the left ground floor window which reads 1621, but the rear of the building is known to be much older. And it was in the 17th century, that the first of two known murders occurred in the building. February 1645 was a time in Weymouth’s history when grisly death was commonplace, as the English Civil War raged and Royalist sympathisers in the town plotted to overthrow the Parliamentary garrison commanded by Colonel William Sydenham and 500 people died in one bloody night during the Battle of Weymouth.
During the siege of Melcombe which followed the conspiracy, a stranger stayed at the Black Dog, then known as a “house of entertainment”. He was described as a “trader with flaxen hair and a yellow beard”, who hailed from Taunton Dene in Somerset. His name was William Courtney and while he was lodging at the pub, he was mercilessly slain by the Landlord, John Chiles, who battered him on the head with a hammer as he slept in order to steal the £288 in gold and £12 in silver which Courtney had with him. Chiles and his wife, Margaret, then stripped the body and, in the darkness, carried it out to a nearby jetty and threw it into the sea, no doubt hoping that one more cadaver in a war zone would cause no particular suspicion. But the body was recognised and the pair arrested. Margaret Chiles soon broke under questioning and gave evidence against her husband for the murder.
In the 18th century, it became the haunt for smugglers and one of them was to become the second murder victim inside the pub, as the result of an argument. The foul deed occurred in front of the fireplace in the bar when John “Smoaker” Mills Senior and the son of a local, Richard Mills, whipped Richard Hawkins to death in 1758. The murder took place because Mills, an ally of the famous Hawkhurst smuggling gang of Sussex, falsely accused Richard Hawkins of an offence against the gang. It was only later that it was found that Hawkins was entirely innocent of the accusations against him. The murderers were caught and later hanged at East Grinstead in West Sussex for their crime.
It was also in the 18th century that the famous author, Daniel Defoe, who was staying in the town, met the celebrated shipwrecked mariner, Alexander Selkirk, in the Black Dog and, after this meeting, Defoe wrote his timeless classic, Robinson Crusoe, which is based upon Selkirk’s experiences.
In the summer of 1804, The King, George the third, who went down in history as the monarch who lost Britain it’s colonies in America, together with his Queen and several of the young Princesses, stayed in Weymouth. Guarding them was his favourite regiment, The King’s German Legion, a cavalry regiment that distinguished itself at the Battle of Waterloo. George caroused with the officers of the regiment at their barracks at Lodmoor Hill and the Black Dog, which was but a short distance from his apartments at Gloucester Lodge.
The pub today is as vibrant as ever, despite being the oldest pub Weymouth has, it was and still is at the social centre of this wonderful old town. It prides itself on being a traditional pub Weymouth residents and visitors seek out. They enjoy some of the best Real Ale Weymouth has to offer, served from casks. So if you are in Weymouth Real Ale served from casks, by friendly staff, you should look no further than The Black Dog Pub.

KØPI 137 - Autonomes Wohn- und Kulturzentrum
History & Info:
Die Besetzung:
Die Köpenicker Str. 137 in Berlin wurde am 23.02.1990 besetzt. Kurz zuvor war das Haus entmietet worden. Durch die Besetzung wurde der geplante Abriß des Gebäudes verhindert. Im Sommer 1991 wurde mit der Verwalterin des Hauses der W.B.M. (Wohnungsbau-gesellschaft Mitte), ein Vorvertrag über die Nutzung sämtlicher Räume des Hauses abgeschlossen. Der Vertrag betrifft sowohl Maßnahmen der baulichen Selbsthilfe als auch den Abschluß von Einzelmietverträgen für die Wohnräume.
Am 01.05.1993 wurden dann mit der neuen Verwalterin des Hauses, der G.S.E. (Gesellschaft für Stadtentwicklung), unbefristete Mietverträge für die Wohnräume des Hauses abgeschlossen.
The Squatting:
The Köpenicker Str. 137 in Berlin was squatted on the 23.02.1990. Short time before that, the house stopped being rented. The house didn`t got torn down, how it was planned, because of the squatting. In summer 1991 there was made a pre-contract with the administrator of the estate, the W.B.M. (housing association Berlin-Mitte), for the use of all rooms. The contract included measures for D.I.Y. building up as well as making single contracts for the housing space.
On the 01.05.1993 there were made unlimited contracts for the housing space, with the new administrator of the estate, the G.S.E. (association for urban development).
Fehlgeschlagene Vertreibungsversuche:
1994 wurde im Rahmen eines Rückübertragungsverfahrens Volquard Petersen neuer Eigentümer des Gebäudes. Um freie Bahn für seine Planungen eines Bürokomplexes zu haben kündigte er 1996 die Mietverträge und reichte eine Räumungsklage ein. Diese wurde aber abgewiesen, die Kündigungen für nichtig erklärt.
In der Zwischenzeit hatte Petersen hohe Schulden angehäuft; 1998 wurde das Haus gepfändet und unter Zwangsverwaltung gestellt. Die Commerzbank beantragte die Zwangsversteigerung des Hauses. 1999 wurde dann tatsächlich mehrmals versucht das Haus zu versteigern. Zahlreiche Proteste und Solidaritätsaktionen, aber wohl auch die Existenz gültiger Mietverträge für das Haus, wirkten jedoch offensichtlich abschreckend auf potentielle Investoren - bei den ersten beiden Versteigerungen fand sich kein einziger Interessent; der Antrag für eine dritte Versteigerung wurde im Mai 2000 zurückgezogen.
Failed tryings of evictions:
1994 Volquard Petersen became the new owner of the house with a back-assignment. He quit the contracts and made a action for possession in 1996 to have room for his plannings to built an office block. The case got dismissed and the quittings void by law.
Meanwhile Petersen got huge bills so that the house got distrained and set under forced administration. The Commerzbank applied for a forced sale, what got tried 1999 several times.
Because of a lot of protests and solidarity actions, and also because of valid rent contracts, there was not even one interested investor on the first two auctions. The third auction got taken back in Mai 2000.
Verwaltung des Hauses:
Die Zwangsverwaltung des Hauses wurde aufgehoben und an Petersen rückübertragen, von dem seitdem nichts mehr zu hören war. Die Hausbewohner gründeten daraufhin eine Mieternotgemeinschaft und schlossen Verträge mit den Versorgungsunternehmen ab. Seitdem wird die gesamte Verwaltung des Hauses von der Mieternotgemeinschaft geleistet. Das gesamte Frisch- und Abwassersystem sowie das Dach sind in Eigenarbeit komplett erneuert worden. Die Kellerräume wurden unter hohem Aufwand trocken gelegt und nutzbar gemacht. Umfangreiche Sanierungsarbeiten in den Wohnungen und ständige kleinere Reparaturen und Instandhaltungsmaßnahmen werden von uns selbst erledigt. Keine Hausverwaltung und kein Eigentümer sind nötig um unser rattenscharfes Projekt am Leben zu halten!
Forced administration of the house:
The forced administracion of the house was stopped and given back to Petersen, from whom noone heard since then. The people who lived in KØPI started a rent community and made contracts with public utility companies. Since then the rent community ist handling the whole administration of the house.
The drink- and wastewater system as well as the roof was rebuilt totally D.I.Y. Also the basement got developed. Comprehensive reconstructions in the living spaces and smaller reparations are people here doing themselves.
There is no owner or administration needed to keep our project.
Die Zwangsversteigerung:
Am 8. Mai kam es erneut zu einer Zwangsversteigerung. Amtsgericht und die Gläubigerin Commerzbank mauschelten im Vorfeld, versuchten den Verkauf möglichst geheim zu halten und verscherbelten schließlich die KØPI und den KØPI-Wagenplatz zur Hälfte des Verkehrswertes an den Spekulanten "Besnik Fichtner". Dieser operiert aus einem dubiosen Firmengeflecht heraus. Die Staatsanwaltschaft ermittelt laut Berliner Zeitung gegen ihn und diverse Hintermänner unter anderem wegen schweren Betrugs. Fichtner kündigte in der Berliner Zeitung an, auf dem Gelände Luxuslofts mit Yachtliegeplätzen errichten zu wollen. Das die KØPI nicht am Wasser liegt und es somit schwer werden wird einen Hafen auf dem Gelände zu errichten scheint Herr Fichtner vor lauter Habgier ganz vergessen zu haben.
The forced auction:
On the 8th of may there was another forced auction. The local court and the creditor Commerzbank talked beforehand and tried to keep the auction secret. They sold KØPI and the KØPI- trailerpark for half of the value to the speculator "Besnik Fichtner", which is operating out of a dubios company mixup. The public prosecution department investigates a case, against him and several persons behind him, because of hard fraud and a lot of other things. Fichtner said to a newspaper "Berliner Zeitung" that he wants to built luxuslofts and berths for yachts. It seems like Fichtner forgot in his greed, that the KØPI is not built up right next to water and it´s going to be difficult to built a harbour on our ground.
Die KØPI - Selbstverwaltetes Wohn- und Kulturprojekt:
Das Haus bietet Wohnraum für ca. 50 Menschen einschließlich ihrer Kinder, von denen einige seit ihrer Geburt im Haus wohnen. Die gemeinschaftlich genutzten Räume bieten Platz für die verschiedensten unkommerziellen Kulturveranstaltungen. In den zwei Konzerträumen sind in den letzten 17 Jahren Hunderte von Bands aus allen Kontinenten aufgetreten - Berliner Nachwuchskünstler ebenso wie nahmhafte Musiker aus Amerika, Europa und Asien. Für viele osteuropäische Musiker war die KØPI der erste Auftrittsort in Deutschland. Aber auch zahlreiche Theateraufführungen sowie Tanz- und andere Performances finden auf den Bühnen der KØPI statt.
Hinzu kommt ein nicht-kommerzielles Videokino, kostenlos nutzbare Sport- und Theaterräume, eine selbstverwaltete Siebdruckwerkstatt, der Techno-Keller, Berlins ältester Kletterraum, das offene Büro, vegan/vegetarische Volxküchen, ein Bandproberaum und vieles mehr. - und all dies ganz bewußt ohne einen einzigen Cent von Staat, Stadt, Parteien oder sonstigen "Wohltätern"...
KØPI - autonomous and self-organized culture- and living project:
The house gives around 50 people living space including their children, from which some of them are living here since their birth. The common used rooms offer space for all different kinds of uncommercial cultural events. There were hundrets of bands from all over the world playing in the two concerthalls, the last 18 years. Young talents from berlin as well as well known musicians from America, Europe or Asia. For a lot of east-european musicians was KØPI the place for their first gig in Germany. Also a lot of theatrical performances or Dance- and other performances are taking place on the stages in KØPI.
We also have a non-commercial cinema, charge free sport- and theaterrooms, a self-organized screen- printing workshop, the techno- basement, berlins oldest climbing room, the open office, vegan/vegetarian Soupkitchens, a band-exercise room and a lot of more.
And all that in conscious of without one cent from the state, city, partys or any other "benefactors"...

The Scottish Salmon Company (SSC) has signed a contract to lease this brand new 1800-tonne wellboat from Sølvtrans.
The Ronja Supporter, will be used for the company’s southern farms, in the Argyll area. It is currently being fitted out by Sølvtrans and will be operational by the beginning of 2017 on a long term lease. It will join its sister vessel, the Ronja Viking, which supports SSC’s harvesting processes in the company’s north region, across the Hebrides.
The Supporter is almost double the size of its sister vessel, offering excellent fuel efficiency plus state-of-the-art technology including an on-board fish grading system and high-speed counting scanner.
As well as supporting SSC’s ambitions to increase its harvest capacity in the long term, the new wellboat will allow the company to have three ships continually at sea from the start of next year. The live-haul wellboat will also enable SSC to increase its current pre-rigor filleting, which dovetails the future growth and export strategies of the business and ensures the delivery of premium quality fish to customers round the globe.
Craig Anderson, SSC’s Managing Director, said:
“We believe that the live-haul process produces a better fish quality and this investment signals our commitment to produce the finest quality, sea loch Scottish salmon.”
SNCB awarded a contract for supply of 305 three-car EMUs over the next eight years; at € 1 425m it is the largest rolling stock order ever placed in Belgium. SNCB's specification for the air-conditioned 160 km/h units called for a minimum of 180 seats in a maximum length of 80 m, a multifunctional area and the ability to serve platforms 280, 550 and 780 mm high. 95 sets with 3 kV DC traction equipment for the Brussels RER, although the network is not due to be completed until 2016. These will be followed in 2012-14 by 95 dual-voltage sets with 25 kV 50 Hz capability for general use across the network. The final 115 sets arriving in 2014-16 will also be for general use, but only equipped for 3 kV operation.
Entry into service has not been without problems. The ECTS (signalling system) does not work properly. The quality of the wiring is reported to be low, a claim I find highly suspect given Siemens reputation. There are problems with the pantograph, something that should be readily rectifiable.
SNCB listed 1500 errors of which 906 will be fixed by Siemens, under guarantee. How must of all this is is down to Siemens and how much is down to SNCB having financial constraints I would not like to say. All new and complex trains have problems to start with and it does take a little while for their entry into service to bed down.

A Malay wedding ceremony spreads over two days, beginning with the akad nikah ceremony. The groom signs the marriage contract and agrees to provide the bride with a mas kahwin(dowry). After that, their hands are dyed with henna during the berinai besar ceremony. The bride's hair is also trimmed or her eyebrows shaped by a beautician known as the mak andam.
The second day, the groom is accompanied by friends, relatives, musicians and bunga manggar (palm blossom) carriers to the bride's house where they are usually greeted with the sprinkling of yellow rice and scented water.
Sometimes, the pencak silat or the traditional Malay Martial Art is performed. To add gaiety to the joyful affair, the groom and his party are required to overcome humorous obstacles before being allowed to go in.
Adat Merisik
When it is time for a young man to get married his family will look around to identify a number of potential candidates. Having decided upon one particular young lady, then, the merisik of investigation process takes place. For this ceremony one or more representatives (wakil) of the young man’s family will pay a friendly visit to the family of the young woman whom they have in mind as his potential bride. The visit is purely for the purpose of further investigation. Its allows the visitors to see the young lady. A hint will be given to her parents regarding the purpose of the visit, and their reaction will be assessed. The girl’s parents may also give the visitors some idea as to whether or not their daughter will be interested in the match. The merisik does not constitute a formal proposal. Following the visit both sides can begin to think more seriously about the possibility or otherwise of the union. It is possible that no progress may take place, and the young man’s parents or representatives will then look for another possible candidate.
Adat Bertunang
Also known as an engagement ceremony which is normally held at the bride's residence.
Akad Nikah
A Malay wedding begins with the akad nikah ceremony. The groom signs the marriage contract and agrees to provide the bride with a mas kahwin. After that, their hands are dyed with henna during the berinai besar ceremony. The bride's hair is also trimmed or being put on make-up by a beautician known as the mak andam. Women/Bride will also put on their 'tudung' or hijab to cover their hair and a 'selendang' or beautiful embroidered with beads scarf on top of their hijab. A crown is also placed on top of the scarf.
Bersanding
During the bersanding ceremony, the bridal couple will be seated on the dais and sprinkled with yellow rice and scented water by family members, relatives and guests as a sign of blessing. Each guest will receive a bunga telur, which means 'flower' and 'egg' - a symbol of a fertile union.
