We are currently producing Life For Mile, a feature film planned for a theatrical release about the Chinese and Indians (First Nations) involvement in the construction of the transcontinental railway that united Canada as a nation in the 1880s. It was said that for every mile of railroad that was built, one Chinese life has been sacrificed, thus the title of the movie. The Chinese workers’ contribution has been noted many times, but little has been said of the native Indian’s involvement. So while we were in Kamloops BC talking to the local Shuswap Nation, we were also invited to visit the Secwepemc Native Heritage Museum and Park. The indoor museum contains many aboriginal artifacts which dated back to thousands of years and the outdoor native heritage park features ways of how the local tribes have lived with their culture and way of life being well-preserved. For example, canoe making, Double Lodge for summer fishing and trading and ‘Pit House’ for winter living etc. [Photo by Ray Van Eng www.vancouver21.com ]

Mads Mikkelsen as the Preacher Ivan in “Adam’s Apples.”
Mads Mikkelsen can currently be seen as the villain in the new James Bond film “Casino Royale.” If you liked him as Le Chiffre, then I highly recommend you watch his performance in “Adam’s Apples.” In it he pulls off one of the best written and complex character roles I’ve seen this year as if it were the easiest part he ever had. I thought his balance between hope at all costs and complete hopelessness was incredibly impressive.
My first foray into Anders Thomas Jensen land was “Adam’s Apples” (aka “Adams æbler“) at the recent Sitges Film Festival. I’d heard good things about his work but, for whatever reason, had never seen one of his films. I walked into “Adam’s Apples” with no expectations or any idea of what it was about. The film absolutely floored me. I walked out of the theatre with one of those supreme rushes of movie magic. “Adam’s Apples” is transportive cinema that somehow offers a complete revitalization of the spirits through some of the most unlikely characters portrayed in a black comedy. There are few movie highs like this one. An upbeat black comedy? You better believe it!

FIESELER Fi103-A1 (V-1)
HÖELLENHUND
SERIAL NUMBER 121536
Current Markings:
Luftwaffe Flak-Regiment 155(W), France, 1944
As the world's first operational cruise missile the Fi103 was the first of the so-called "Wonder Weapons" that German leaders felt would snatch victory from defeat. The concept of a self-guided flying bomb powered by a pulsejet engine originated in 1942 and quickly captured the attention of the German Luftwaffe, which was suffering high losses in bombers and crews. The Fi103 first flew in December 1942, but problems in both production and operation of the new weapon delayed its first operational use until June 12th 1944 when the first V-1s were fired at London. Eventually, more than 5,800 of the missiles would land in England killing over 8,000 people.
Service History:
Probably built in the infamous Mittelwerk underground factory sometime in early 1944. This factory used forced labor from the Buchenwald and Nordhausen Concentration Camps to build V-1 and V-2 missiles. The missile was captured by the First Canadian Army in the summer of 1944 in France and shipped to Canada for study. It was stored by the Canadian government for many years before being sold to a small private museum. In 2005 it was purchased by the Pima Air & Space Museum and brought to Tucson for display.
Technical Specifications:
Wingspan: 17 ft 7 4 in
Length: 27 ft 5 in
Height: 4 ft 8 in
Weight: 4,807 Ibs (loaded)
Maximum speed: 408 mph
Service Ceiling: 8,840 ft
Range: 148 miles
Engine: One Argus 109-104 pulsejet with 807 pounds of thrust Warhead: 1,784 pounds of Amatol 39A
V-1 Launch Site Representation:
The diorama assembled here is intended to convey a general impression of what a V-1 launch site was tike in the early spring of 1944. The V-1 sites were scattered all along the coasts of NW Europe, within range of central England. We see here a pair of Luftwaffe personnel, a Senior Corporal and mechanic, performing inspections of the V-1 and the launch control panel. The launch control unit would have typically been inside a bunker, but is displayed here for easier viewing. The site is surrounded by a thin leafy French forest which is being used to provide a bit of cover from marauding Allied fighter bombers, such as Typhoons & Thunderbolts, and tactical bombers, like the B-25 in the SW corner of this hangar, which were constantly on patrol against V-1 launches, the code for these types of targets was 'Noball'.
Initially V-1 emplacements were permanent style installations, but Allied air power reduced most of these to rubble and forced the Germans to create mobile launch units. The vast majority of V-1s were deployed from mobile units. A launch site like this would not have survived much past early July of 1944.

CASSUTT FORMULA ONE PYLON RACER
SERIAL NUMBER: NONE
Current Markings: Jim and Kathy Haun, 1997
Formula One pylon racing began in 1947 when the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company sponsored the event at the National Air Races. The sport quickly became a favorite of the fans because the two mile rectangular closed course brought the action right in front of the spectators with the planes racing at 50 feet off the ground, often wing tip to wing tip. Planes were restricted by wing size, weight, and engine displacement so that all were evenly matched, Aircraft design was very important and most planes were designed and constructed by individuals. Tom Cassutt, a pilot for Trans World Airlines, designed and built his racer in 1958. He quickly issued plans for it hoping that more people would build racers to expand the competition. Few Cassutt racers have been built exactly according to the plans, most incorporate some changes desired by the person building the plane. However, Cassutt based planes have been quite popular and successful in Formula One racing and more than 800 have been built.
The Cassut in the Pima Air & Space Museum collection was originally built and test flown by Roy H. Brandes in 1993. It was refurbished, repainted and donated to the Tucson Airport Authority for display at the Tucson International Airport by Jim and Kathy Haun. In June 2002, due to renovations at the airport terminal the aircraft had to be removed. The Tucson Airport Authority donated it along with another aircraft to the Pima Air & Space Museum.

(CHICAGO, Illinois - 19-26 August, 2011) Veterans wounded in current campaigns, (OEF, OIF, OND, Gulf War) and those retirees of previous wars, participated in a three-day United States Olympic Committee (USOC) and World Sports Chicago training camp followed by the subsequent inaugural Olympic style 2011 Valor Games Midwest in Chicago, Illinois. The confidence and empowerment events sponsored by the Veteran's Administration, World Sports Chicago, USA Paralympics and the Support All Veterans Equally (S.A.V.E) organization embraced the capabilities of participants who at first glance, because of percieved disabilities ranging from severe traumatic brain injuries, loss of limbs, wheelchair confinement and other debilitating ailments are thought to be limited, by introducing them to events such as track & field, archery, winter biathlon challenges, rowing and water activity, to name a few, and Warriors who, like themselves, were stricken ill or injured during active duty. Focusing on existing self-determinations and reinforcing the military's esprit de corps. Jeanette Thompson, a wheelchair athlete and paralympian who was introduced to the throwing events at a USOC Paralympic Military Sports Camp in Rhode Island in 2009 and made a dramatic showing at the 2011 IPC Athletics World Championships in Christchurch, New Zealand in January as a member of Team USA and placing first in several field events in 2010. She was also named 2010 Rookie of the Year in wheelchair basketball by the Augusta Bulldogs. Thompson said these events are an opportunity to be oneself without the misconception of limitations. "Since my injury the stigma associated with being (confined) to two-wheels has been fun to disprove," the gregarious retired Army non-commissioned officer explained. "Now (injured veterans) come together and feel the normalcy of being a team with commonalities, not restrictions, and look beyond societal restrictions and move forward to continue to proudly represent our country in other capacities."

Currently home to the Terrace on the Park banquet hall in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, this building originally served as a heliport for the 1964-65 World’s Fair. It stood in the Transportation Area of the fair, with each side of the structure forming a big T, for "transportation". During the fair in 1965, the Beatles landed here en route to their legendary concert at Shea Stadium.

BOWIE BY MICK ROCK: See the rise of Ziggy Stardust through the "man who shot the seventies."
Between 1972 and 1973, when David Bowie was redefining glam rock as the androgynous alien rock star Ziggy Stardust, fellow Londoner Mick Rock was the musician’s official photographer. Bowie told his manager at the time, “Mick sees me the way I see myself.”
Bowie by Mick Rock features 65 of Rock’s photographs that capture Bowie’s creativity and charisma, from dressing room shots of his transformation into Ziggy Stardust and live performances to private moments between gigs. “I think David trusted me,” reflects Rock. “I regarded myself as a guardian of his image, and that’s true to this day.”
The gallery also includes rare performance footage, oral history interviews, an audio tour narrated by Rock, and photos of other music icons like Lou Reed, Queen, and Debbie Harry.
At the funeral of Jim Brooks on 27th September 2002, Roy Dommett introduced Thames Valley Morris Men to the dance we now call Jimmy Brooks and which is a standard in our current repertoire. Here he is teaching it and TVMM eventually getting the hang of it. Jim danced with Curfew Morris before the Second World War and was a founder member of TVMM and a close collaborator with Roy recently died) in the 'rediscovery' of the Oddington tradition. I don't know who made the tape this came from, but warmest thanks are due!

Date: 1938-1939
Current location: Wolfsburg, Germany
Description of work: In 1930 Ferdinand Porsche founded an automobile design company named Porsche Buro and began developing a design for a small, two-door car. In 1933 Porsche met with Adolf Hitler, who was pushing for the production of a car that could carry five passengers, reach 62 mph, get 33 mpg, and cost 1000 Reichmarks. The design that would become the VW38 was developed from 1933-1939, and factory construction began in 1938. When the VW38 went into limited production, Hitler unilaterally changed its name to the "KdF Wagon", for "Kraft durch Freude" ("strength through joy"). Porsche, who was not a member of the Nazi party, greatly resented this use of his design for propagandistic purposes. Only a few thousand KdF prototypes were built, because as soon as World War II began in 1939 the factory converted to mass-produce the Type 82 "Kubelwagon, " an adapted KdF that was the German military's equivalent of the Jeep. The factory was heavily damaged by Allied bombing, and fell under British administration at the end of the war. The British Army brought it back online in 1945 and began producing cars for their own military use out of leftover parts still in inventory. The UK actively assisted in the factory's reconstruction and by 1946 it had produced over 10, 000 cars. The British renamed the company "Volkswagen" and the factory town "Wolfsburg" after a nearby castle. By 1949 factory control was returned to the West German government, and the VW Beetle became one of the new country's most successful export products and a major component of its economic recovery.

My current favorite bit of built environment in Shreveport, and I dearly hope they will be standing for Christmas 2010. I'd suggest that they should be "saved" or "preserved", but such notions are generally frowned upon in Shreveport, being the product of liberal commusocial-fascist Obamacare Hitler-worshipping baby eaters who want to take away our god-given right to guns, SUVs, parking lots, WalMarts and the American flag.
