A guided walking tour of Vieux Lyon. The tour would take around an hour.
The Vieux Lyon (English: Old Lyon) is the largest Renaissance district of Lyon in the 5th arrondissement of Lyon.
This zone is served by the metro line D
In 1954, Vieux-Lyon, the city's oldest district, became the first site in France to be protected under the Malraux law to protect France's cultural sites. Covering an area of 424 hectares at the foot of the Fourvière hill, it is one of Europe’s most extensive Renaissance neighborhoods. There are three distinct sections: Saint Jean, Saint Paul and Saint Georges.
The Saint Jean quarter: in the Middle Ages, this was the focus of political and religious power. The Cathedral of St Jean, seat of the Primate of Gaul, a title still conferred upon the archbishop of Lyon, is a good example of Gothic architecture. The Manecanterie adjoining the cathedral is one of Lyon's few extant Romanesque buildings. Formerly a choir school, it now houses the museum of the cathedral’s treasures. Saint Jean is also home to the Museum of Miniatures and Film Sets, located in a building that was the Golden Cross Inn in the 15th century.
The Saint-Paul section: in the 15th and 16th centuries predominately Italian banker-merchants moved into sumptuous urban residences here called hôtels particuliers. The Hôtel Bullioud and the Hôtel de Gadagne are two magnificent examples and the latter now houses the Lyon Historical Museum and the International Puppet Museum. The Loge du Change stands as testimony to the period when trade fairs made the city wealthy. The Saint Paul church with its Romanesque lantern tower and its spectacular spire mark the section’s northern extremity.
The Saint Georges section: silk weavers settled here beginning in the 16th century before moving to the Croix Rousse hill in the 19th century. In 1844, the architect Pierre Bossan rebuilt the St George's Church on the banks of the Saônein a neo-Gothic style. In the Middle Ages, when there were only a few parallel streets between the hill and the Saône, the first traboules were built. Derived from the Latin trans-ambulare, meaning to pass through, traboules are corridors through buildings and their courtyards, connecting one street directly with another. Visitors can discover an architectural heritage of galleries and spiral staircases in these secret passageways, as unexpected as they are unique.

Another short Easter break in Stratford-upon-Avon visiting a friend who was a very able and patient tour guide as well as good company. It was also nice to try some more photos of people rather than just inanimate objects!

Translohr is a Light Rail system manufactured by Lohr Industrie of France. It is used in Clermont-Ferrand, Tianjin, Padua and in the mainland Mestre district of Venice in Italy.Translohr differs from other light rail systems in that it runs on rubber tires and is guided by a single central rail, and is commonly referred to as a guided bus system.
The Translohr system is intended to provide a much more tram-like experience than that provided by guided bus systems. Unlike guided bus systems(including the similar but incompatible Guided Light Transit system developed by Bombardier Transportation), Translohr can run only where there is a guide rail in place as there are no steering controls. Like a conventional tram, power is provided by overhead wires and collected with a pantograph, although the vehicle can also run on internal batteries (arranged in packs) on sections of the route where overhead wires are deemed to be undesirable. Because Translohr LRVs cannot run without a guide rail they are not classified as a type of bus.

These batik letters are the start of a quilt made to help calm me and to remind me that the universe is really really big. So unbelievably big that it's unimaginable. They will soon find their way on the quilt. The letters, not the universe.

The word "beatnik" was coined by Herb Caen in an article in the San Francisco Chronicle on April 2, 1958.[11] Caen coined the term by adding the Russian suffix -nik after Sputnik I to the Beat Generation. Caen's column with the word came six months after the launch of Sputnik. Objecting to Caen's twist on the term, Allen Ginsberg wrote to the New York Times to deplore "the foul word beatnik," commenting, "If beatniks and not illuminated Beat poets overrun this country, they will have been created not by Kerouac but by industries of mass communication which continue to brainwash man."
Lexicographer Jesse Sheidlower, the principal American editor of the Oxford English Dictionary, argues that the terms hipster and hippie derive from the word hip, whose origins are unknown.[2] The term hipster was coined by Harry Gibson in 1940.[3] Although the word hippie made isolated appearances during the early 1960s, the first clearly contemporary use of the term appeared in print on September 5, 1965, in the article, "A New Haven for Beatniks", by San Francisco journalist Michael Fallon. In that article, Fallon wrote about the Blue Unicorn coffeehouse, using the term hippie to refer to the new generation of beatniks who had moved from North Beach into the Haight-Ashbury district. New York Times editor and usage writer Theodore M. Bernstein said the paper changed the spelling from hippy to hippie to avoid the ambiguous description of clothing as hippy fashions.

I don’t even know what to write! This is my first solo book, created without any support from institutions or companies. After countless attempts to reach out to the city council to develop a guide — and receiving multiple rejections — I decided to take matters into my own hands and publish this Lisbon Guide myself (with more on the way)!
To make the process easier, I chose Amazon’s print-on-demand service — meaning I don’t have 1,000 books scattered around the house 😃 (a definite advantage!), I don’t have to handle shipping (another plus!), and the book can be sold worldwide!
The only downside is that I can’t control the print quality (and I’ll admit, that really annoys me!!!). But there’s nothing I can do — I don’t have €10,000 to invest in printing.
So here it is, a guide to Lisbon! For now, it’s only available in English, but the Portuguese version should be ready next year! 😊

Nem sei bem o que escrever! Este é o meu primeiro livro a solo, onde não tive apoios de nenhuma entidade ou empresa. Depois de tentar por inúmeras vezes chegar à câmara para fazer um guia, e de múltiplos nãos, decidi por mãos à obra e lançar por mim próprio este Guia de Lisboa (e mais a caminho)! Ora para facilitar o processo, decidi escolher o print on demand da Amazon, ou seja, não tenho 1000 livros espalhados pela casa 😃 o que é uma vantagem, não tenho de ser eu a fazer o envio, outra vantagem, e o livro pode ser vendido para os quatro cantos do mundo!!!! O único defeito, é não conseguir controlar a qualidade de impressão do mesmo! (e isso confesso que me deixa um bocado irritado!!! Mas nada que eu possa fazer, não tenho 10.000€ para gastar em impressões). E aqui está, um guia para Lisboa!! Por enquanto, apenas em inglês. Mas no próximo ano deverei ter a versão portuguesa finalizada! 😊

Assembly guide for my 5-cell model. You're going to need to make a tetrahedron from 6 60 degree ow units (from 1" x 4" paper) first.
If anyone has any question feel free to ask, the assembly is a bit different from normal.

So that's my charming volunteer- guide at the Phil. Tarsier Foundation. She was really good, very patient with my frequent lens changing, and went out of the way to show us excellent tarsier sightings, at times even asking us to hold on until a noisy group moved on. She made us walk around bushes or paths to ensure better sightings of the animal the large group had rushed through. Thank you dear. I never got her name, but may her tribe prosper! The Phil. Tarsier Foundation is lucky to have volunteers like you. (Bohol- Tagbilaran, Philippines, May 2013)

The January 25 - January 31, 1964 issue of TV Guide Magazine featured a special insert entitled "America's Long Vigil". It described the period from Nov. 22 to Nov. 25, 1963, when US President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. The article goes into great detail in describing the television coverage of the historic events of that weekend, and makes for a fascinating read.
The Mayor of Dudley got to experience the challenges of life without her sight when she blindfolded through the streets of the town during specialist guide dog training.

Page from Keighley and the Bronte Country Official Handbook, (Ed. J. Burrow & Co. Ltd., 1960). This page includes
an advert for Prince-Smith & Stells Ltd. (incorporating Taylor, Wordsworth & Co. Ltd.). The advert is to recruit apprentices to the firm.
Prince-Smith and Stells Ltd. was formed from a merger of the Keighley firms Prince Smith & Son with Hall & Stells in 1931. They specialised in the manufacture of worsted machinery. It operated from, amongst other locations, the Burlington Shed buildings on the site of what is now, in 2020, the Asda store. Between 1939 and 1945, the company's workforce rose from 1,700 to 3,500, of whom 1,300 were women. During the Second World War, the firm made gun and aircraft components, ammunition and machine tools, including over a million rifle bayonets. By 1959 the company had become a subsidiary of Stone-Platt Industries and was incorporated with Taylor, Wordsworth & Co. Ltd. of Leeds. By the 1960s they operated across six factories in Keighley, which included associated canteens, sports grounds and even a brass band. The firm closed in the early 1970s.
The handbook was published for the Corporation of Keighley and served as an official guide to the town, its history, and the surrounding area, and as an industrial directory, listing and featuring adverts from many of the key businesses in the area. The book measures approximately 190 mm by 245 mm and runs to 76 pages. It came with a pull-out street plan of the town.
The handbook belongs to Joyce Newton and was loaned to the Keighley and District Local History Society for scanning in February 2020.
