The 2011 Census included questions for the first time on English language proficiency for those who had a main language other than English. For residents who lived in Wales, the English category included those whose main language was Welsh.
The latest analysis from ONS has looked at how proficiency in English varied across the different main languages spoken, how health related to proficiency in English and looked at the proficiency of 3-15 year olds across local authorities in England and Wales.

ATTENTION: There is very strong adult themes such as rape (I am trying to make people more aware family and child rape ), guts, language, and everything else under the rainbow. So here, don't say I didn't warn you. Also this is in its editing stage so point out any grammar mistakes.***
It is normal to think your life is insanity; even if it is not. It is normal to feel alone, but there is always somebody with you. It is not normal to break away from everything else when you get sucked into a portal-monster-thingy, and then travel thousand years into the future in a weird land. I learned that my home, Eve City, was destroyed a thousand years ago by a thing called Envy. Basically, I got sucked into this thing and now I am a thousand years into the future. Oh great. Now I have to learn about these new people and their new beliefs. I just want to go home.
Well, I’ve been stuck in this little town named Basil for two entire boring days. I got to know everybody here expect that derfecter girl, I thought her name was Yuko or Yuki or something like that, who was always inside the temple. She was all of the people’s hopes. They say if we hear her prayer song thing when outside the temple she could continue her journey to become a dumbldorian and then dumbldorians can defeat the evil monster Envy. “Tyler, come on you sleepy head get up!”
“Fine,” I responded to Wilden’s request. Wilden was a player on the local basketball team in Basil, and his team always won. But, I figured out that his younger brother just died a couple months ago because he was attacked by Envy because he was one of the warriors who protected South America with all his might. Yet, I did not know what the warriors were called.
“You aren’t up yet!” I hated that he kept annoying me to get up when it was only 6:30 in the morning, and I usually woke up at 1:00 in the afternoon. So, I always told that to Wilden before this, but he would never listen to me.
“I’m getting up, gosh!” Then I just forced myself to jump out of my comfy bed and my feet touched the ice cold ground. It felt kind of good, but now I was freezing my butt off.
“Get ready because...well because you need to because it is daytime.” He really didn’t need to tell me that because I already knew that. Well I was already because I didn’t have time to pack anything before I got stucked into Envy. “And, here is a new outfit because you were wearing that outfit for a really long time.” Wilden gave me a new outfit, and it was hideous, and he was also wearing it because it was his team uniform for basketball. Yellow jacket shirt thing and black skin tight shorts with a wacky design on it.
“Okay, can I be alone to change?”
“Alright,” he said while he left the room. Right then I just wanted to go back home to Eve City, back home. Back home I was a semi-famous actor in a t.v show named UnDead, and my character’s name was Mack. Now I knew that would be pointless in my new life. So, I changed after I was thinking a while about my old home and Mack McDonald.
“I need to get back soon or who knows what will happen...” After that, I opened the door to go outside. Who knew what awaited outside the door of density. But, it made my life change forever. It made me think about things more.
“Yuni, it’s her prayer hear it! HEAR IT!” A little girl pulled on my shorts signaling me to come with her to see the derfecter. The thoughts in my head said that this girl would be just a geek that would be dead in the first episode of UnDead. The girl was looking at me with such innocence.
“Alright, alright, I hear it.” She started to pull me over to the Town Square. I wondered where were her parents at this time. Of course I knew her because her name was Suki and she was the youngest of five children. Which that was weird because I was also the youngest of five children. But, my eldest sister, Jenna, disappeared ten years ago, and nobody knows what happened to her. I hated her. Then my father disappeared, Jack, five years later. I hated him also. Now I was missing, but the city was destroyed and the rest of my family probably was dead. Crybaby, that what them two always called me. They were right.
“Come on, Tyler!” Suki started pulling on my shorts again, so I decided to go with her. She was smiling. She was so happy that it made me happy inside. But, I still wasn’t that excited because I still thought this girl would be a stupid geek that was also an attention whore who wanted a boyfriend that had a weird bowl hair cut. Turns out I was wrong. Never judge something until you know what it is or you would be sorry; I learned that lesson the hard way, the very, very hard way that was well very hard.
We finally made it to Town Square where the derfecter was supposed to be. I didn’t see anything but a bunch of townsfolk standing there watching something that I couldn’t see. “I am proud to finally reach the name of dumbldorian. I will follow my mother’s path to defeat Envy and make this world peaceful once again!” I still couldn’t see Yuni’s face because of the big crowd of people.
“Oh, my god! This is so awesome, Tyler! I can’t believe this is actually happening. happening right now. We’re listening to Yuni give a freaking speech!” Suki yelled. This girl seemed to overreact to hearing Yuni--she did hear her talk everyday besides the last two days.
“I know, kid, I k-”
“The world will experience peace once again, and everybody will be happy. Envy will be defeated once again!” The crowd proudly clapped, and I still couldn’t see her face. I still thought she was just another attention whore, still.
“Now thou shall bring’st fourth a dumbldorian magician. An apprentice of Gandalia himself. A Renaissance Woman. Thee art thy best in all of the town. All of the land. All of the universe and life as we knowest ith. Thy is..... the one and only magista unicron...Yuni!!!! Now she shall perform thy traditional spell dance of Yunidfgkgc, thy first person to defeat Envy.” Now I thought was she, and was about to do one of those weird ballet dances only geeks did when they were forced to by their geeky parents. But, I was once again wrong. I always seemed to be wrong about everything then, but I was also naive back then.
“Alright Sir Hootsalot,” she responded. I still couldn’t see her face or clothes or anything. “Oh Madame Andrea you came!”
“Of course, I am one of your protectors. I was also your dad and mom’s protector. You know that I will never leave your side or the side of anybody else in your family. Elder Kirami is also here but you know he is way too shy to show his face here. I believe Commander Luka is in the crowd with her husband Captain Wilden.” Gosh, this Andera girl sure loved to talk. Then I heard footsteps, and a women I didn’t know exited Town Square, Andera. Her hair was red and short and her face was covered by her black cloth.
“Cool! Andera came! She is so cool but she will NEVER show her face to anybody!” Suki tried to run to Andrea, but I stopped her. Now I just wanted to know how Yuni looked like, but, once again, I couldn’t see her. So, I forced my way to the front with Suki. Then that was when I saw her face for the first time. Her hair was a color of a raven and so were her eyes and lips, unicron have naturally black lips, and her skin was like snow. The outfit she was wearing was a navy blue dress with glitter splattered all over it.
“Wow,” I whispered to myself.
“Ain’t she pretty, Tyler, I always thought was pretty.” The girl’s lips and eyes were big because she was a combination of a person and a unicorn, and all unicorns have big lips and eyes for some reason unknown. But, then she started dancing.
“Oh my god.” Everybody was in wow when Yuni started to float, and when magical balls started to surround her creating every color of the rainbow. She then created water out of thin air, so she put it in the ocean which was nearby. This dance took hours, but every moment I was in awe. It wasn’t because of the things Yuni was doing, but it was because of her beauty.
“I love it when I see this.” Suki told me that when I was staring at Yuni’s performance. “I knew you would like it too. It is just pretty looking at Yuni do this.”
“Yes, it is.”
“This is why I love it when people become powerful because I get to see them do this.” Yuni was still dancing in the beautiful afternoon sky, and it was 1:00. When things were normal this was when I would wake up to start my day because filming always started at 6:00 for UnDead. It was near the season finale I remember, and it was getting epic, which was a bummer because I would never figure out how it ended.
Hours later:
The show stopped, but I didn’t want it to stop. But, it was starting to get dark out, and that was when people were scared and hid in their homes. When Yuni got off the stage me and Suki ran to talk to her. “YUNI, THAT WAS AMAZING!”
“Well, thank you Suki,” she answered with a voice of a perfect angel. I loved her voice, her everything.
“You’re welcome! I am so sorry Rikku couldn’t come because she would enjoyed it. But, she joined the Ali Vran with dad and Andru.”
“I’m sure she-” A plane then landed in the middle of Town Square because all the other people were at their homes watching for Envy. Three people stepped out of the aircraft, one of them running towards us. The other two were just walking.
“OH MY GOD! Suki you grew up so much! I can’t believe you are seven because you are getting so big! Do you miss me?” The girl picked up Suki and tossed her in the air after hugging her.
“Yes I do, Rikku!” This girl had a cheery feeling around her. Her blonde hair was exactly like Suki’s, and well they looked exactly alike because they both also had tan skin and green eyes.
“Oh brother and pops are coming. They are tired after a long day of treasure hunting...OH MY THERE IS FINALLY SOMEBODY ELSE WITH BLONDE HAIR! Who is he?” She was clearly talking to me. Well, I knew this town enough to know that Suki’s family and I were the only people with blonde hair in the town Basil. It was annoying that everybody either had red, black, or brown hair in this town; I felt alone with my super blonde hair.
“Oh, hey Suki how’s my girl?” Suki came running up to a man who also had blonde hair, and the man next to him looked exactly like her. Tan, blonde, green. Seems like that all that family has those things in their appearance.
“Oh hey cuz, and hey sis,” the other man greeted. So, Yuni is Rikku, Suki, and Andru cousin...okay, they looked nothing alike. I didn’t know the other two siblings because they were always at home because they were sick or injured or something. They went to close to Envy when they were doing their pickup jobs at the park in Sentra Faira and were lucky they didn’t die painfully.
“Guys this here is Tyler Fern. He is from Eve City-”
“Wait, Suki Eve City was destroyed by Envy thousand years ago,” Yuni interrupted.
“Yeah, Yuni. Um, he is from a thousand years ago. Yeah,” Suki answered.
After that:
Because Andru, Rikku, Yuni, and Pops heard that I was from a thousand years ago they took me to Commander Lucka’s place to talk about it because it was weird. I finally arrived at Luka’s after watching Yuni all the time. We walked there, and I didn’t know how much time it took; if I had to guess it probably took thirty minutes. “Well, here is her place guys.”
“Knock on the door, Yuni,” Pops commanded. So, Yuni did, and Wilden answered it. I knew they had a little three year old named Violet, and I saw her playing with a teddy bear and a moxie girl.
“You are welcomed. Come in please.” We came into the house, well mansion thing. It was super huge and gothic. I guessed Lucka liked dark stuff because Wilden said she did a little while back. “What do you want?”
“We want Luka and Tyler to talk in private about...you know what probably.”
“About him being from a destroyed city called Eve. Let me get her.” He walked up the stairs to get his wife, and I waited with the others. Of course, I passed the time by looking at Yuni, nobody seemed to notice. Okay, I had a big crush on her. Somebody call the love police.
“Here I am. Tyler come over to my workroom.” Luka had black hair like Yuni and river blue eyes. Her baby looked a lot like her, but the child had Wilden’s facial features.
We, Luka and I, entered Luka’s workroom:
It was like one of those places that you go to get your hands read or cards picked or whatever else, told your future. “Sit down, Tyler. Anywhere, but the big purple seat.” I sat down in a blue seat, and it hurt my back it was very uncomfortable.
“What are we doing?” I asked Luka.
“Talk about your life. Talk about your family. Talk about anything you remember about Eve City. Talk about it now.” So, I told her about my childhood about my family and job and Eve City. “Now what about this place?”
“Um-”
“Don’t worry I won’t be offended about anything that you say, freaking anyTHING.” I didn’t trust this girl enough to tell her what I really thought. I didn’t trust her enough to tell about my feelings for Yuni.
“It’s fine, but I sure miss my home.” Gosh, I could've told her my real feelings; I could’ve I hated my place to my guts. The only reasons I still want to be in this place is Yuni; she was HOT with her revealing dress on.
“You’re lying, I can tell. You like Yuni, and you hate this place to your guts and want to get the h*ll out of here. Also you don’t trust me enough to tell me this type of information.” How did she know that, I wondered. “I can read minds you know, Tyler. I should’ve told you that.”
“That’s kind of creepy.”
“I can focus on one mind, and gather all the info I need, and then leave at will. Why do you think i’m so good at this? I could even read multiple at the same time.” Oh great, that's just freaky. No matter what she could read my mind and know all my dirtiest secrets I tell nobody. Looks like I got to learn how to trust her, I told myself. I needed to learn to have a better life in this new place.
“Well, can I go now?”
“You can go now or learn the truth that even I don’t know,” Luka answered. So, I went out the door thinking that this was a complete waste of time. Then Luka came out also. “I have to tell you something!”
“What?”
“You can come one of her protectors, you know? It would make you both happy if you joined her team,” she whispered so nobody else would hear. I didn’t think I was up for the job, but I accepted anyways by nodding my head. “Plus, something inside me tells me that you are in great danger that you cannot escape no matter what you do.”
“It is probably nothing, Luka.” But, she looked really serious when she said that I was in danger, and I should have listened to her more often because that would have solved many problems.
“You’re wrong, Tyler, you are in serious danger. That’s why Wilden and I are coming with you and Luka after the finals in basketball. Maybe you can come see the game?” Luka started to walk away to where the others were at. I knew she knew something I did not.
“But, Luka, who would take c-”
“Emmett, our friend, will take care of Violet. Now go home, Tyler. The finals for Wilden are tomorrow and he needs his sleep. You and your friends also need to go, and I will inform Yuni that you are coming with her.” She then continued her walk to where the others were at, the living room. I decided I can go because Luka was taking care of business for me, and I was tired because I wasn’t used to this type of stuff happening to me. Because, for the whole day I was standing up while I usually did nothing but act back in Eve City.
“Okay.” But, I had my doubts about leaving because I wanted to know what the complete truth was; I knew that it was too late to go back now. There was no turning back.
I went outside:
The sky was eaten by darkness and stars. I guessed that it was about 12:30 A.M. It was a new day, and no wonder Luka wanted me to go. The stars reminded me about Yuni’s eternal beauty, she was even more stunning than the stars themselves. “Tyler, wait up!” When I turned around I saw Yuni running towards me. I then wondered if Yuni could read my mind, probably not. But, it would be weird if she could.
“Okay,” I responded. That word seemed to be my response for every question that night. She caught up to me.
“I hate the dark, it reminds me of the Shade.” Even though she was complaining I still liked the moment. For Pete’s sake, I just learned something new about her. “But, I hate Envy even more. I will stop at nothing to stop that monster once and for all.” She stared into my eyes. Something then destroyed that moment.
“YUNIE, WAIT UP! DON’T WANDER ALONE IN THE FREAKING DARK NIGHT!” Rikku came sprinting down the path. She just had to ruin that moment, didn’t she? Her blonde hair was bouncing around like a ball being played by four year olds. “Look I found a sphere; a sphere that looks unique!” She took out a red shining circular object from out of her ball. “I wonder what’s in it and why it is so hot.”
“Me too. Play it, Rikku.” Yuni walked over to where Rikku was standing, and so did I. When Rikku squeezed the sphere it started to show a movie-like footage. I was standing there in awe because it was beautiful, but I still did not understand how a crystal ball thing can play a movie when it was just a normal sphere.
It was showing a man with a girl that looked a lot like Yuni less the uber-hotness. Everything was a reddish color, so you couldn’t tell what their hair, skin, or eye color was. They were warning the viewer about a thing they called Tusan, Nathan’s slave. Then they explained that when Envy is defeated it gets reborn by feeding off a host of a random person that was nearby Envy when it gets defeated, and the person hosted will technically turn into Envy without their free will. Just because Tusan, Nathan, was playing with the strings with a monstrous thing.
“What the! Mom...dad! Why didn’t you tell me this earlier,” Yuni yelled at the top of her lungs. After that, she began crying. Tears were flowing down her cheeks like they were rivers. She reminded me how I used to be ten years ago, but I was still like that now. Just nothing bad happened to me lately. “Tusan...I have to start my journey now to avenge my parents!”
“You promised Wliden you would go to the final, Yunnie. Plus, Andera and Kirami aren’t here. We will all meet at the finals, and then we can go on the journey altogether as one excited group.” Rikku put her hand on Yuni’s shoulder and wiped the tear off of Yuni’s face. Yuni stopped crying, looking at her cousin. It surprised me that they were COUSINS, Rikku wasn’t even a unicron.
“I just can’t believe my parents would hide something that big from me, their own daughter. We used to tell everything to each other.” Another tear went down Yuni’s amazing face. She once again started to cry. Crybaby, that word hunted my head. Forever and ever and ever. At least I was not the only crybaby in that cruel world.
“We have to go home, guys, it’s getting late,” I commanded. Yuni grabbed my hand.
“My home is the temple.”
“No, Yuni you can stay with me. You know where I live right, Tyler, right? Come on we have to go!” Rikku ran leaving us behind in the darkness. If she ran off in our journey, I wondered, would she do it for a good reason? I put that thought out of head, and then started walking.
“So you are from the infamous Eve City?”
“Yes.” I was a little annoyed about why she asked me that freaking annoying question. Didn’t Wilden tell her he found me on the bench unconscious, laying there all wet and sandy. He brought me back to his village to see if I was alright, and he discovered that I was from thousand years ago somehow. Like, I didn’t tell him, yet then I remembered Luka could read my mind. The girl with a man’s name could read my mind.
“How was it there? I heard they had tall buildings everywhere with lights all over the place with a stadium that shined like the sun along with a huge movie studio.” She let go of my hand. “And, they did this!” Her hands went up in the air, yelled like a fan girl, and she smiled. “I wished we did that.”
“Yes.” Now I was answering everything with yes. The basketball stadium there was the brightest thing I ever seen in my entire life. All the seats were filled when the people there were rooting for the team that they liked. It was loud. I lived near to it, and sometimes I couldn’t go to sleep at night because how loud and light the stadium was. I will always remember those sleepless nights filled with stupid people.
“It is very different now, isn’t it?”
“Yes.”
“You say yes to everything don’t ya?” she questioned me. Yes, that was my word of the night.
“No, I don’t say yes to everything.” All Yuni did was giggle. Well, I don’t know why she giggled, but I loved her giggle. It was one of those innocent types of giggles that were super high. All unicrons had that type of innocent laugh. I knew this because I read a book on unicrons. I didn’t know everything, gosh, I was a normal seventeen year old boy.
“I thought so, come on we have to go to Rikki’s house or she is going to freak out. You never want to see her freak out, EVER. Rikku gets freaking insane when she does.” Then we started to walk once again. Yuni was still more beautiful then all of the bright stars in the sky. But, something seemed wrong with her; it was probably because her parents hid that big secret from her and she was depressed about that.
After getting home:
My bed was calling for me because it was almost 1:oo in the mourning. Only five hours of sleep, crap. So, I went to bed because I didn’t have any pajamas to sleep in. The bed felt compty. “Time to go to bed.” I closed my eyes.
Five hours later:
I woke up, and somehow I was on a boat that was on the water. “Where am I!?” I screamed when I opened my eyes.
“A boat...oh no. Stay there!” I saw that Luka was the one with me, and though a small window I saw Envy, I could point out that giant circle thing with a face from anywhere. That freaking cloud monster thing was coming our way. We had to go. For some reason I got out of bed, I didn’t listen to Luka. I needed to check if Yuni was okay because I knew she was here. And, I saw her, standing on the deck.
“Help me, guys! We have to keep this boat floating or we all will die. Come on!” Recognizing that it was Yuni, I ran out of my room. Yuni was right there with her wooden staff. She had a red shirt with glitter on it and jeans.
“Yuni!”
“Tyler, help me here. Do you have anything to fight with?” Wilden then ran up to me with a sword. He put it the weapon in my hands, and ran off. Yuni nodded her head while I noticed her black hair was in a side ponytail.
“How can I help you?” It felt weird that I had a sword in my hands. The only sword I ever held before that moment was a fake sword for my television show UnDead. The blade was sharp, it was heavy, I could kill something with it. Then I looked up; Envy was still there, laughing at us ants with silence. Wait, that made no sense.
“We have to get away from Envy or he will kill us all. Plus, I don’t have the powers to kill it yet.” She started to rise up her staff. After that, she rose it above her head and she summoned a dragon. It was red like her shirt and beautiful like her. “But, just in case, we have to get ready to fight this thing. Come on, Fira, we have to do this!”
“Alright!” Luka came. The look on her face told me that she was angry, probably because I ignored her simple demand. Envy was getting closer and closer to the boat. Any second he would of been on top of us, overpowering the puny humans on board.
“Hold on,” Wilden demanded. The boat violently turned around in circles. The fast circling motion was like a ride in an amusement park people threw up on. Rikku was hoping tightly on a rope looking a little green.
“We are going to make this, we are going to make this.” I kept telling myself that over and over again. I thought it was the end for me. But, I looked over to Yuni. Even then she was simply stunning, even though she was about to throw up with all the spinning happening.
“Yeah,” Yuni answered. Her hands were holding onto the side of the boat. The wind made her ponytail go out of her hair and now it was down. I liked it better when her hair was down. Yuni slowly inched to me and held my hand. If I died I would die happy now. Our heads were together, but I didn’t know if she liked me or not.
“Yes.” I wanted to kiss her. I knew she wouldn’t like that because we just meet yesterday afternoon and she probably liked things to go nice and slow, not fast. The urge, it was so overpowering. Luckily, I fought the overwhelming urge to kiss her lips. The wind was fierce because Envy was close, and now we were stuck in a circular motion of the joy ride. We would be that way until we were too far away from Envy to make its random wind powers ineffective to us. The monster was coming closer and closer to us; it was time to play that legendary Jaws movies music. My final moments were about to come, the shark of the skies was about to take its bite of doom.
“We will live through this.” As she said that, Yuni closed her eyes in sheer terror. My eyes were still on her. Beauty was in the eye of the beholder. Yuni was the definition of beauty in the inside and outside. It was kind of wicked that I found somebody stunning when they were scared to death, but I did this moment. Even when she was frightened Yuni looked hot as the sun on the day of the end of the world.
“I know.”
“Guys, Envy is going the other way,” Rikku pointed out. The wind had stop blowing; we were all alright. “Is Yunnie okay Tyler?”
“Yes.”
“You say yes to everything, don’t ya?” Okay, now Rikku had also noticed that I said yes often. Somehow, they saying that made me think about my dad and my eldest sister. Crybaby, you ain’t nothing but a big crybaby. That was all they called me just because I used to get very emotional about everything they did to me when I was younger. But, then Yuni let go of my hand and went to her cousin Rikku. My perfect moment was over.
“No, I don’t, Rikku.” I said no to my dad and Jenna when they called me a crybaby. No, no, no. No i’m not one I am just having one of those things in my early life! Those memories will haunt me forever, but yet I would praise them for they were the only thing I had left of Eve City.
“Good.” She hugged Yuni and patted her on the back once again. Rikku was protective over Yuni, a little bit too protective.
“Yes.” Wait, there I went again with saying yes all the time.
“Are you sure yes isn’t the only thing you say?” Rikku and Yuni questioned at the same time.
“Yes.” Then I realized I shouldn't have just said that. It just proved their point about me saying yes about everything. I slapped myself in the head. Why did I just do that? Those girls were smart, way smarter than me. All they did was laugh when I answered their question.
“Guys, stop doing that back there we still have to see if Envy is anywhere near us,” Wilden commanded. Luka appeared again to stare us down with her soul piercing eyes. We needed to be more serious about our situation. She pointed to a broken rope and then looked at me. I knew she wanted me to do something with that rope.
“Replace that rope with this one, Tyler.” She placed a rope in my hand. Wilden and Luka sure liked giving stuff to me, but I did not like it whatsoever. It was getting annoying.
“Yes.” Why did I always say yes those days, those good old days? I wished I said okay or something like that. But, no I had to always freaking said yes or no back then.
“Well, don’t just stand there get to it because Envy can come back and that rope can be our d*mn demise. That would be REALLY bad and that b*tch, Dee, who is next in line, would have to take the freaking d*mn journey besides of Yuni, the only girl practicing that wasn’t a complete a*shole.” I always wondered where the rest of Wilden’s team was, but I guess they took different boats because they had families of their own to protect. And, dang, Luka loved to cuse a lot. Yeah, I was just going to stay on her good side.
new that whatever the reason was it was not good.
“Envy payed Mika and Kenzie a visit.” Then tears were falling from her eyes again. I wasn’t annoyed about her always crying because I used to all the time until dad and Jenna vanished from thin air at random times. Somehow that made me not cry anymore and I became a strong boy. But, I still hated them both with all my guts.
“What about Envy?” There was always something bad happening when people said that name. Gosh, I hated that name.
“He destroyed another town, Tolo Town. I had dear friends there and well they are probably all dead. Dead, they are all DEAD.” She couldn’t stop crying, so I knew she cared about her old friends.
“How do you know this?”
“Luka said she saw Tolo being destroyed and I have to make all the dead go to the Netherrealm, Shade’s liar, or Tauros, Shade’s hideout, or MARKA will take them.” Yuni rested her elbow onto the edge of the boat, and stared at the endless blue sea. I knew she really cared about other people’s safety, and she wanted nobody else to die or she would be in even more pain then she was in right at that moment.
“What does MARKA, whoever they are, do to them?” The thing they did to the dead shocked me. No wonder she wanted to go there immediately.
“They turn them into monsters or to the really powerful ones things they call dark priests.” She got something from out of her jean pocket. It was a round blue thing. It showed a picture of a normal person.
“Why are you showing me this?”
“To show you what they do to the innocent souls that should not belong to them.” She pressed a small button on her round thing. The picture showed a great beast that skin was scales and with teeth so sharp it would cut anything. It’s eyes were still human, but it was scary. Who would do this to a person? Wait, MARKA would. “We shouldn’t see them on our journey, but after that its fair game. Their leader, Nathan I believe his name is, will stop at nothing to kill all of us, the defeated of Envy.” Okay, I did not want to see these people, but if I did I would give them a piece of their own medicine or atleast try to beat them.
“Okay, we should go.”
“Wilden is going there. But, for some weird reason, now he wants us all to call him W.” That was weird especially for a guy who was all about being serious. It was totally nuts. Yuni started to walk away once again. Away from reality.
“Wait, what do the Dark Priest look like?” I asked. She turned suddenly around, and telling by the look on her face it was bad.
“Nobody knows. JK, they actually look like humans just covered with d*mn black Shade. At least, that is what people think they look like.”
When we arrived at Tolo Town:
The whole place was like a war zone. Houses were blown over and were in millions of pieces. Blood was everywhere you stepped and looked. The docks were mostly under water. Knowing kids and babies were there, I wanted to cry but I forced myself not to. I was no longer a crybaby; I was no longer a crybaby. “Rest in peace Kenzie and Mika,” Yuni cried. Everybody bowed their heads down but me.
“This is messed up.” All of the others looked at me funny after I made that remark. It wasn’t like I was saying I think they deserved it. They just were sad and all of them were mourning, oh, it wasn’t sad. These thoughts in my head were so d*mn confusing!
“Poor Kenzie, Mika, and Michelina; Suki would be so devastated when I tell her that they died because of Envy.” Rikku seemed most depressed out of all of them. There were a billion teardrops on my face, and I thought it was impossible to make Rikku cry, the puffball of the group. I guessed wrong again. I should have just stopped judging people before I knew them.
“I’m sorry for your lost, and i’m sure Kenzie, Mika, and Michelina were very good people with souls that belonged to the Good.” There were no survivors, Luka checked everywhere with her powers. Envy killed every single breathing soul in that village. Everybody was probably having a good day until Envy attacked. Then everybody screamed for help, but it was too late when help finally arrived. But, now we could do them a favor and make sure MARKA doesn’t turn any of them into monsters.
“I just need a little bit more time before I can send them to the other places, guys.” Yuni dropped to the ground. She didn’t care about the fact that she landed in a pile of blood; she just needed to have time to cope with her lost. Once again, Rikku comforted her grieving cousin. And, I did too. It seemed like it was the right thing to do.
“You can take as long as you like,” Rikku said while hugging her. I just patted her on the shoulder.
“Can I be alone?”
“Well, we only have four hours until the game starts, and we have to meet Andrea and Kirami there also before it starts,” Wilden answered. So, Yuni picked up her staff from wherever she kept it.
“I’m ready then, W.”
“You can have more time if you like, Yuni,” he responded. I really thought she needed more time to cope too, and so did Rikku. Yuni got up and then ran over to the ocean and went into it. The waves made her sandals and the bottom of her jeans wet. But, I was still admiring her hotness. Okay, I was really into her it freaking hurt.
“I can do it now. This game means a lot to you, and I won’t make you miss it because I was mourning old friends which I hadn’t seen for years.” Yuni raised up her staff above her head, crying.
“Wait, Yunnie! I want to get something here.” Rikku went running off to one of the destroyed houses. Then she appeared again with a pearl bracelet she found. The pearl were the color of clouds.
“Kenzie’s necklace! You can wear it I have enough bracelet,” Yuni shouted to Rikku.
“I will never take it off, ever.” The girl put the bracelet around her wrist. It looked really good on her, but it would have looked better on Yuni, of course. The pearls glistened in the sunlight. It could be the sparkle in the Shade.
“Can I start now?” Her staff was still above her stunning head. There were tears on her face because of her friends’ deaths.
“Yes,” I answered.
“Do you ever say anything but yes?” Luka questioned. Oh great, I thought, now she thinks I say yes too much. Just great.
“I actually do.” I finally learned how to not say yes. I was no longer a yes man, but now I was a clueless man. Even Einstein was once clueless, and then he became the wizkid of all time.
“I would like to start now. It would be bad of MARKA gets even more monsters. But, sometimes people live forever if unsent. If they don’t get captured by MARKA, and everything without a soul is useless to them.” I didn’t know why she was going on about MARKA and immortality.
“It is going to start, Tyler.” Luka put her hand on my shoulder. “Don’t be afraid by what you see.” Then, of all things, Yuni danced. The waves were dancing around her and souls of people came towards her.
“Kenzie! NO!” Rikku tried to grab a girl with short brown hair, tan skin, and green eyes but Luka let go of me to stop her. “No, no, NO! You too Mika.” She stared at a girl around Suki’s age who had brown hair, pale skin, and green eyes. The poor woman started to sob like how I used to when dad and Jenna yelled at me. The souls turned into shooting stars when they reached Yuni and go off in the distance. That was hard to watch.
“I told you to be prepared, but I see you’re crying.” Luka wiped away the tear that I cried off of my pale face. And, looked into my eyes. “Do not hide who you’re really are, Tyler.” She went onto the boat after she comforted me with Wilden. So, I decided to go to the boat since this was just creepy. People die, and Yuni dances. That is a little bit creepy. Yuni was going out of the water, and Rikku was on her knees. Rikku’s hand was still reached out.
“This is a reasonable time.” I was still looking at Yuni. This time she was the one comforting Rikku. “Completely reasonable.”
“It is going to be alright,” Yuni said to Rikku.
“No, it isn’t. All of us will die one time or another even if we’re immortal. Immortals can still die inside. Envy really out did himself this time.” She got up, and grabbed Yuni’s hand.
“I can give you more time if you like, Rikku.” Yuni got up, and stayed there, waiting for an answer.
“Yunni, I must go on.” Rikku grabbed onto her necklace, looking at it. It must of
been one of her friend’s favorite bracelet or something. “We need to go. MARKA is probably coming right this moment.” I wondered why MARKA knew where every dark soul was. But, I guess we still had to go.
“We can stay a little longer,” Yuni pleaded.
“No, for all we know MARKA can murder us in cold blood and turn us into one of them.” Rikku then got up, and ran over to the boat. I continued to walk towards the boat until I noticed Yuni wasn’t coming.
“Why aren’t you coming?” I questioned. She just stayed there glaring at something.
“MARKA monsters are here!” When I turned around I saw a foe right behind me, breathing down my neck. It wanted to end another life. So, I started to run, but Yuni wouldn’t come. She stood on her ground with her staff ready.
“Yuni, we have to go now!”
“Tyler, we have to fight now. There would be one less foe to worry about. The soul will go to its rightful place at last!” She summoned one of her dragon; both of them were ready to fight. Then another foe flew in front of me. “I will fight this one and you will fight that one over there. Come on, we’re trapped if we don’t fight these stupid things!”
“Alright.” Then there was a bright blinding light. Right before I could even hit that thing it fell onto the ground, and seconds later Yuni’s hit the ground before she could fight. “What the heck?”
“I never leave friends behind. They are coming; we have to go now!” I then saw that it was Rikku. Rikku defeated and killed the beasts in the matter of seconds. That was so awesome, she knew how to kick butt. “I ain’t waiting all day.” People came onto the island; it was the MARKA workers. So, we hurried onto the boat before any of the MARKA workers could see us. We ran as fast as the wind because we were scared; all of us were scared out of our mind. Then we reached the boat, rejoiced.

Saurabh is an architect in Delhi, he wanted his portrait by me so we met recently for lunch in Hauz khas village which is in South Delhi.
As he was living in Milano for a few years, we spoke Italian for fun, he had many expressions and most of all an amazing smile.
We went outside to the Deer Park and I took several shots.
I selected this one where everything on his face is smiling, it is the universal language in the world and a source of joy and happiness.

PRESIDIO OF MONTEREY, Calif. -- The Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center’s most colorful day of the year came May 8 as the Presidio opened its doors and welcomed a crowd estimated at more than 5,000 during its 31st hosting of Language Day. Attendees were treated to a diversity of songs, skits, dances, classroom demonstrations as well as food and wares that represented the cultures of 23 languages studied here at the military’s preeminent language training facility. Also in attendance were 54 combat veterans of the Vietnam War, honored guests during a “Welcome Home” ceremony led by Col. Paul Fellinger, Presidio of Monterey garrison commander, and Dan Presser, Military and Veterans Affairs Advisory Committee member, in commemoration of the war’s 50th anniversary.

PRESIDIO OF MONTEREY, Calif. - Service members from the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center were honored by Coca-Cola and the San Francisco Giants during a pre-game presentation at AT&T Park in San Francisco. A handful of service members were on the field prior to the Giants' July 21 game versus the Arizona Diamondbacks and were presented an autographed jersey by Giants' pitcher and former Cy Young Award winner Barry Zito. Zito founded the charity "Strikeouts for Troops" in 2005 in support of service members with war-related injuries and their families, and is also involved in multiple other military related non-profit organizations. In addition, 20 DLIFLC service members not involved in the pre-game ceremony were given tickets to watch the game, which ended with a Giant's loss by a score of 1-3.

Our Body language the morning after our beloved NE Patriots loss to NY Giants... ending their bid to perfection. We were listening to this song... do check out this girl's you tube video, she's a silly goofball just like me ;) It's a heartache
Originally published in 1966 in hardcover and reprinted in 1989. There has likely been no other attempts to state so plainly though in rather obtuse academic language the underpinnings of how human society constructs reality for the humans within said society. To attempt such a description today would be to garner a thousand cuts from the aperspective post modernists and their progeny of which I will say no more.
The two men attempting this project straddle two different academic disciplines and two cultures between them. One Peter L. Berger a professor and director of the Institute for the Study of Economic Culture at Boston University while the other Thomas Luckmann a professor of Sociology at the University of Konstanz in West Germany at the time of writing this book. Neither reveal any personal information within the book itself, but as the treatise unfolds a droll sense of humor is apparent in the cultural examples given i.e. a trio consisting of a man, a woman and a Lesbian and the mythology they might create in order to enjoy the fruits in the proclivities available to them.
The premise of the book is that reality is constructed through the use of language and stored in bodies of knowledge. The objectification of articles in the environment help to construct everyday reality. Language possesses an inherent quality of reciprocity which allows it to create reality in real time. Language constructs symbolic representations far beyond reality. Symbols and signs can detach language from everyday reality and come back to inform it. Semantic fields determine what will be preserved of societal interactions which is passed on from generation to generation. This social stock of knowledge creates society.
Because humans are born before they are fully able to fend for themselves in the wild, society has derived a social order among individuals to provide stability to create the activities that will further socialize babies and children to operate as adults. This is the fascinating thing about humans as a biological organism and a species. The length of time that spans of nearly two decades that it takes to socialize humans has allowed for enormous diversity in how this is achieved as shown in the many cultures that encompass the planet. Our current era seems to have forgotten how crucial this socialization of the young is to their own well being especially as they approach the cusp of adulthood given how we have so easily been persuaded to hand over these young minds first to television and now to the smart phone and with it the internet, the ready portal to porn and caches of information to bolster any belief whatsoever.
The authors continue to posit that reality exists only as individuals are conscious of it. Yet this individual consciousness is socially determined. Thus the individual consciousness is simultaneously shaped by the society it is simmering in. Any bi and tricultural person can attest to that fact from their own sampling of more than one culture.
In society, reality is maintained by institutions where the collected bodies of knowledge are stored. The institution is real only in so far as it is realized by those executing these societal realities in performed roles. Through these roles their characters are defined from which they also derive their objective sense. And language is the medium by which logic ensues and legitimates this socially constructed reality. These are the tools we are given to defend and create our reality within a given society. So we are walking talking maintainers of reality with varying degrees of authority and power given to us by these established institutions. We also internalize this knowledge and the accompanying reality and participate in rituals of tradition to cement the reality into history.
In this ongoing battle to maintain a society we have psychologists to reign in the deviants. This sociological view of psychologists and their created realities in terms of diagnosis is particularly potent. For it is in the construction of individual identities that psychologists get to manage those whose proclivities don’t quite match up with the internalized societal expectations. While sociologists comment on the big picture. A picture often being suppressed by political interests.
The authors urged society to further study these reality making forces, but in the long run the territory covered by sociologists seems to have been overshadowed by the rise of psychologists and the ever increasing number of diagnosis that is theirs to treat. The big picture view of how society creates reality may have gone underground picked up as my teacher said by the conservative Right while being completely ignored by the identity obsessed Left.
As a final note the authors remind us that humans may attempt to create some pretty far fetched social realities, but all such realities will face the limitations of the human body faced as it is with such needs as hunger and sexual reproduction. And as the Buddhist like to remind us — old age, sickness and death.
I found the book to be a much needed reminder of the power of words and ideas to create reality. It gave me the necessary psychological distance to observe this phenomenon as it is happening now. And not be sucked in by the insistence of individuals that certain thoughts are innate or proven by science. It confirmed for me my original instincts about how culture is created to control individual thoughts and beliefs. And how those beliefs are not necessarily either correct or permanent.

Author and Creator of Láadan
Arkansas
Born in Missouri in 1936, Dr. Elgin has had a distinguished career as a writer, artist, linguist, verbal self-defense trainer, grandmother, publisher of the Linguistics & Science Fiction newsletter, and founder of the Science Fiction Poetry Association. In 1980, she first came to widespread attention with her book The Gentle Art of Verbal Self-Defense. Elgin’s place in the conlanger’s pantheon, however, was assured with the creation of Láadan, appearing in her Native Tongue Trilogy: Native Tongue, The Judas Rose, and Earthsong. Láadan is a language created by women for women.** The novel is set in a future where women have been subjugated to serve only as linguists for male-dominated companies dealing with various alien races. However, being linguists, the women begin to create a language to more accurately reflect their thoughts, feelings, and desires and to free them from a male-dominated, aggressive way of expressing themselves. (Photo courtesy of Suzette Haden Elgin)
**[ADDENDUM: In an email from Dr. Elgin to Don Boozer, 5/11/2008: "I have just one comment, about this sentence: 'Láadan is a language created by women for women.' It's true that it's a language created by women, but not just for women. In the trilogy it's made very clear that it was intended for men as well as for women, and I have been fighting this "women-only" myth for decades now. I don't know how it got started, but I take every opportunity I get to try to get the word out that it's a myth." I would like to thank Dr. Elgin for pointing this out and wanted to share her comment with viewers of the exhibit. -- D. Boozer]

(Top right) Carsten Becker
Creator of Ayeri
Germany
21-year-old Carsten Becker, a native of Braunschweig, Germany, started conlanging after reading J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and being amazed by "all the Quenya in there and the detail given to it." He happened upon Mark Rosenfelder's Language Construction Kit (http://www.zompist.com/kit.html) while doing Internet searches for material on Tolkien's languages. This was in 2002, and, in December 2003, Carsten began work on his conlang Ayeri after two previous abandoned attempts known as The Nameless Language and Daléian. Carsten states that "since then, Ayeri has been gradually growing, and my ultimate goal is to make it a comfortably usable (private) language -- which I think is a common goal of many conlangers." An in-depth Ayeri Coursebook was written in 2005 by Carsten and was made available on his website in a professional-looking PDF format. It included the three separate Ayeri writing systems as well as a full grammar and dictionary. Carsten is revising the Ayeri grammar to reflect changes made in the past few years and is planning on tackling the entire Coursebook next; however, information is readily available on the web at Tay Benung: The Ayeri Resource (http://benung.freehostia.com). The site includes a grammar, dictionary, texts, information on the scripts, and even recordings in Ayeri! Tay Benung is Ayeri for "The Web."
Carsten is currently in training as a publishing assistant for Westermann, one of the biggest publishers of textbooks in Germany and known internationally for their exquisite wall maps. Studying languages or linguistics sometime after finishing his training "is still at the back of my mind," Carsten admits, "as it could also be useful for getting on with my current job." And, not to mention, continuing to expand Ayeri.

(Bottom) “This exhibit is brought to you by the international conlanging community.”
Collaborative conlang projects are common on the Internet, but a venture like the exhibit you are currently viewing is unprecedented. The scale of the undertaking and the fact that it is designed for the general public (i.e., not only for other conlangers) is unique. The project was initiated by Don Boozer who wrote all the text for the exhibit (except where otherwise quoted). Any errors, factual, grammatical, or typographical, are his. Don was uniquely qualified to present this exhibit. He was a presenter at the 2007 Language Creation Conference; has published articles on conlanging in Library Journal, The Linguist (the official journal of the British Chartered Institute of Linguists), and VOYA (a journal highlighting library services to teens); and is currently working on several conlangs of his own including Dritok (an entirely voiceless language incorporating hisses, fricatives, clicks, and hand gestures for an imaginary species with no vocal cords).
One of the goals of the exhibit was “to put a face to the craft of conlanging,” and, towards this end, Don contacted a number of prominent language creators to request photos and biographical information. These conlanging celebrities graciously responded with enthusiasm and great humility and included Doug Ball (California), Carsten Becker (Germany), Måns Björkman (Sweden), Helge Fauskanger (Norway), Suzette Haden Elgin (Arkansas), Sai Emrys (California), Anthony Harris (Vermont), Sonja Elen Kisa (Canada), Marc Okrand (DC), David J. Peterson (CA), John Quijada (CA), Mark “The Zompist” Rosenfelder (Illinois), and Andrew Smith (New Zealand).
After writing the first draft of the text for the exhibit, Don posted a message on the CONLANG listserv asking for proofreading volunteers. A few hours later, a full complement of proofreaders from around the world had taken the challenge: Terrence Donnelly (Missouri), Dr. Dirk Elzinga (Utah), Sai Emrys (California), Arnt Richard Johansen (Norway), David McCann (London, England), Michael Poxon (Norfolk, England), Larry Sulky (Canada), and Steven Lytle (Ohio). Their critiques, suggestions, and error-finding added immeasurably to the exhibit. Don thanks them all...Aweras, Kutayang vās, Hannon le, Hantanye, Áala, Pona, qatlho', Hela, Dëkuy, Greid.
It is Don Boozer’s hope that this exhibit will inspire new conlangers and allow current ones to take even more pride in their creations. You may contact him at donaldboozer@yahoo.com.
Holy Family and St Michael, Kesgrave, Ipswich, Suffolk
A new entry on the Suffolk Churches site.
There are ages of faith which leave their traces in splendour and beauty, as acts of piety and memory. East Anglia is full of silent witnesses to tides which have ebbed and flowed. Receding, they leave us in their wake great works from the passing ages, little Norman churches which seem to speak a language we can no longer understand but which haunts us still, the decorated beauty of the 14th Century at odds with the horrors of its pestilence and loss, the perpendicular triumph of the 15th Century church before its near-destruction in the subsequent Reformation and Commonwealth, the protestant flowering of chapels and meeting houses in almost all rural communities, and most obvious of all for us today the triumphalism of the Victorian revival.
But even as tides recede, piety and memory survive, most often in quiet acts and intimate details. The catholic church of Holy Family and St Michael at Kesgrave is one of their great 20th Century treasure houses.
At the time of the 1851 census of religious worship, Kesgrave was home to just 86 people, 79 of whom attended morning service that day, giving this parish the highest percentage attendance of any in Suffolk. However, they met half a mile up the road at the Anglican parish church of All Saints, and the current site of Holy Family was then far out in the fields. In any case, it is unlikely that any of the non-attenders was a Catholic. Today, Kesgrave is a sprawling eastern suburb of Ipswich, home to about 10,000 people. It extends along the A12 corridor all the way to Martlesham, which in turn will take you pretty much all the way to Woodbridge without seeing much more than a field or two between the houses.
Holy Family was erected in the 1930s, and serves as a chapel of ease within the parish of Ipswich St Mary. However, it is still in private ownership, the responsibility of the Rope family, who, along with the Jolly family into which they married, owned much of the land in Kesgrave that was later built on.
The growth of Kesgrave has been so rapid and so extensive in these last forty years that radical expansions were required at both this church and at All Saints, as well as to the next parish church along in the suburbs at Rushmere St Andrew. All of these projects are interesting, although externally Holy Family is less dramatic than its neighbours. It sits neatly in its trim little churchyard, red-brick and towerless, a harmonious little building if rather a curious shape, of which more in a moment. Beside it, the underpass and roundabout gives it a decidedly urban air. But this is a church of outstanding interest, as we shall see.
It was good to come back to Kesgrave. As a member of St Mary's parish I generally attended mass at the parish's other church, a couple of miles into town, but I had been here a number of times over the years, either to mass or just to wander around and sit for a while. These days, you generally approach the church from around the back, where you'll find a sprawling car park typical of a modern Catholic church. To the west of the church are Lucy House and Philip House, newly built for the work of the Rope family charities. Between the car park and the church there there is a tiny, formal graveyard, with crosses remembering members of the Rope and Jolly families.
Access to the church is usually through a west door these days, but if you are fortunate enough to enter through the original porch on the north side you will have a foretaste of what is to come, for to left and right are stunning jewel-like and detailed windows depicting St Margaret and St Theresa on one side and St Catherine and the Immaculate Conception on the other. Beside them, a plaque reveals that the church was built to the memory of Michael Rope, who was killed in the R101 airship disaster of 1930.
Blue Peter-watching boys like me, growing up in the 1960s and 1970s, were enthralled by airships. They were one of those exciting inventions of a not-so-distant past which were, in a real sense, futuristic, a part of the 1930s modernist project that imagined and predicted the way we live now. And they were just so big. But they were doomed, because the hydrogen which gave them their buoyancy was explosive.
As a child, I was fascinated by the R101 airship and its disaster, especially because of that familiar photograph of its wrecked and burnt-out fuselage sprawled in the woods on a northern French hillside. It is still a haunting photograph today. The crash of the R101 put an end to airship development in the UK for more than half a century.
Of course, this is all ancient history now, but in the year 2001 I had the excellent fortune to be shown around Holy Family by Michael Rope's widow, Mrs Lucy Doreen Rope, née Jolly, who was still alive, and then in her nineties. She was responsible for the building of this church as a memorial to her husband. We paused in the porch so that I could admire the windows. "Do you like them?" Mrs Rope asked me. "Of course, my sister-in-law made them."
Her sister-in-law, of course, was Margaret Agnes Rope, who in the first half of the twentieth century was one of the finest of the Arts and Craft Movement stained glass designers. She studied at Birmingham, and then worked at the Glass House in Fulham with her cousin, Margaret Edith Aldrich Rope, whose work is also here. But their work can be found in churches and cathedrals all over the world. What Mrs Rope did not tell me, and what I found out later, is that these two windows in the porch were made for her and her husband Michael as a wedding present.
Doreen Jolly and Michael Rope were married in 1929. Within a year, he was dead. Mrs Rope was just 23 years old.
The original church from the 1930s is the part that you step into. You enter to the bizarre sight of a model of the R101 airship suspended from the roof. The nave altar and tabernacle ahead are in the original sanctuary, and you are facing the liturgical east (actually south) of the original building, and what an intimate space this must have been before the church was extended. Red brick outlines the entrance to the sanctuary, and here are the three windows made by Margaret Rope for the original church. The first is the three-light sanctuary window, depicting the Blessed Virgin and child flanked by St Joseph and St Michael. Two doves sit on a nest beneath Mary's feet, while a quizzical sparrow looks on. St Michael has the face of Michael Rope. The inscription beneath reads Pray for Michael Rope who gave up his soul to God in the wreck of His Majesty's Airship R101, Beauvais, October 5th 1930.
Next, a lancet in the right-hand side of the sanctuary contains glass depicting St Dominic, with a dog running beneath his feet and the inscription Laudare, Benedicere, Praedicare, ('to praise, to bless, to preach'). The third window is in the west wall of the church (in its day, the right hand side of the nave), depicting St Thomas More and St John Fisher, although at the time the window was made they had not yet been canonised. The inscription beneath records that the window was the gift of a local couple in thankfulness for their conversion to the faith for which the Blessed Martyrs Thomas More and John Fisher gave their lives. A rose bush springs from in front of the martyrs' feet.
By the 1950s, Holy Family was no longer large enough for the community it served, and it was greatly expanded to the east to the designs of the archtect Henry Munro Cautley. Cautley was a bluff Anglican of the old school, the retired former diocesan architect of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich, but he would have enjoyed designing a church for such an intimate faith community, and in fact it was his last major project before he died in 1959. The original sanctuary was retained as a blessed sacrament chapel, and the church was turned ninety degrees to face east for the first time. The north and south sides of the new church received three-light Tudor windows in the style most beloved by Cautley, as seen also at his Ipswich County Library in Northgate Street, and the former Fosters (now Lloyds) Bank in central Cambridge.
Although the Rope family had farmed at Blaxhall near Wickham Market for generations, Margaret Rope herself was not from Suffolk at all, and nor was she at first a Catholic. She was born in Shrewsbury in 1882, the daughter of Henry Rope, a surgeon at Shrewsbury Infirmary, and a son of the Blaxhall Rope family. The largest collection of Margaret Rope's glass is in Shrewsbury Cathedral. When Margaret was 17, her father died. The family were received into the Catholic church shortly afterwards. A plaque was placed in the entrance to Shrewsbury Infirmary to remember her father. When the hospital was demolished in the 1990s, the plaque was moved to here, and now sits in the north aisle of the 1950s church. In her early days in London Margaret Rope designed and made the large east window at Blaxhall church as a memorial to her grandparents. It features her younger brother Michael, and is believed to be the only window that she ever signed.
In her early forties, Margaret Rope took holy orders and entered the Carmelite Convent at nearby Woodbridge, but continued to produce her stained glass work until the community moved to Quidenham in Norfolk, when poor health and the distances involved proved insurmountable. She died there in 1953, and so she never saw the expanded church. Her cartoons, the designs for her windows, are placed on the walls around Holy Family. Some are for windows in churches in Scotland and Wales, one for a window in the English College in Rome. Among them are the roundels for within the enclosure of Tyburn Convent in London. "They had to remove the windows there during the War", said Mrs Rope. "Of course, with me, you have to ask which war!"
Turning to the east, we see the new sanctuary with its high altar, completed in 1993 as part of a further reordering and expansion, which gave a large galilee porch, kitchen and toilets to the north side of the church. The window above the new sanctuary has three lights, and the two outer windows were made by Margaret Rope for the chapel of East Bergholt convent to the south of Ipswich. They remember the Vaughan family, into which Margaret Rope's sister had married, and in particular one member, a sister in the convent, to celebrate her 25 year jubilee.
The convent later became Old Hall, a famous commune. They depict the prophet Isaiah and King David.
The central light between them is controversial. Produced in the 1990s and depicting the risen Christ, it really isn't very good, and provides the one jarring note in the church. It is rather unfortunate that it is in such a prominent position. It is not just the quality of the design that is the problem. It lets in too much light in comparison with the two flanking lights. "The glass in my sister-in-law's windows is half an inch thick", Mrs Rope told me. "In the workshop at Fulham they had a man who came in specially to cut it for them". The glass in the modern light is simply too thin.
Despite the 1990s extension, and as so often in modern urban Catholic churches, Holy Family is already not really big enough, although it is hard to see that there could ever be another expansion. We walked along Munro Cautley's south aisle, and at that time the stations of the cross were simple wooden crosses. However, about three months after my conversation with Mrs Rope, the World Trade Centre in New York was attacked and destroyed, and among the three thousand people killed were two local Kesgrave brothers who were commemorated with a new set of stations in cast metal.
Here also is a 1956 memorial window by Margaret Rope's cousin, Margaret Edith Aldrich Rope, to Mrs Rope's mother Alice Jolly, depicting the remains of the shrine at Walsingham and the Jolly family at prayer before it. Another MEA Rope window is across the church in the galilee, a Second World War memorial window, originally on the east side of the first church before Cautley's extension. It depicts three of the English Martyrs, Blessed Anne Lynne, Blessed Robert Southwell and Blessed John Robinson, as well as the shipwreck of Blessed John Nutter off of Dunwich, with All Saints church on the cliffs above.
The galilee is designed for families with young children to play a full part in mass, and is separated from the church by a glass screen. At the top of the screen is a small panel by Margaret Rope which is of particular interest because it depicts her and her family participating in the Easter vigil, presumably in Shrewsbury Cathedral. This is hard to photograph because it is on an internal window between two rooms.
A recent addition to the Margaret Edith Aldrich Rope windows here is directly opposite, newly installed on the south side of the nave. It was donated by her great-nephew. It depicts a nativity scene, the Holy Family in the stable at Bethlehem, an angel appearing to shepherds on the snowy hills beyond. It is perhaps her loveliest window in the church.
Finally, back across the church. Here, beside the brass memorial to Margaret Rope, is a window depicting the Blessed Virgin and child, members of the Rope family in the Candlemas procession beneath. The inscription reminds us to pray for the soul of Sister Margaret of the Mother of God, mistress of novices and stained glass artist, Monastery of the Magnificat of the Mother of God, Quidenham, Norfolk, entered Carmel 14th September 1923, died 6th December 1953. Sister Margaret of the Mother of God was, of course, Margaret Rope herself. She was buried in the convent at Quidenham, a Shrewsbury exile at rest in the East Anglian soil of her forebears. The design is hers, and the window was made by her cousin Margaret Edith Aldrich Rope.
Back in 2001, we were talking about the changing Church, and I asked Mrs Rope what she thought about the recently introduced practice of transferring Holy Days on to the nearest Sunday, so that the teaching of them was not lost. Mrs Rope approved, a lady clearly not stuck in the past. She had a passion for ensuring that the Faith could be shared with children. As we have seen, her church is designed so that young families can take a full part in the Mass. But she was sympathetic to the distractions of the modern age. "The world is so exciting for children these days", she said. "I think it must be difficult to bring them up with a sense of the presence of God." She smiled. "Mind you, my son is 70 now! And I do admire young girls today. They have such spirit!"
She left me to potter about in her wonderful treasure house. As I did so, I thought of medieval churches I have visited, which were similarly donated by the Mrs Ropes of their day, perhaps even for husbands who had died young. They not only sought to memorialise their loved ones, but to consecrate a space for prayer, that masses might be said for the souls of the dead. This was the Catholic way, a Christian duty. Before the Reformation, this was true in every parish in England. It remained true here at Kesgrave.
And finally, back outside to the small graveyard. Side by side are two crosses. One remembers Margaret Edith Aldrich Rope, artist, 1891-1988. The other remembers Lucy Doreen Rope, founder of this church, 1907-2003.

BBC RADIO BABLETOWN (vintage photo, circa 1941): Plays were sent over the air in many different languages throughout the globe.
Arequipa, in the Aymara language, means "place behind the mountain".
Distance only about 15 km !!!
Misti volcano 5900m is active, but has been quiet for a long time.
In 2013, due to the increased activity of the volcano Sabancaya 6000m, (only 100 KM northwest), a state of emergency was imposed in the Arequipa region for more than 60 days. Hundreds of houses were destroyed by the frequent earthquakes.
I have introduced her here earlier www.flickr.com/photos/timelessriver/7620628302/in/photost...
but as she keeps walking into my field of vision, I can't but take more photographs of her in order to get to know her life.
We don't have the same language in words, but her body language is universal. It is one of hardship. A life style she probably has inherited from her ancestors. All I have to base my story upon is seeing her with her grandchildren, whom, so far, follow in her footsteps.
I've seen them in the parks during the whole summertime. Whenever there is an outdoor event, wherever people drink--and Finns do drink a lot-- and throw their empty cans and bottles, she'll be there with her grandchildren collecting them. Probably her children are there too, only I can't tell who is who.
They are a large group of Romani people, sticking together as a family. Or, more accurately, I have actually noticed two large groups of them, kind of separate clans, keeping for themselves. Men, women and children of all ages. They wander around the parks, their eyes observe every drinking person, they often stand and wait for the person to drink his beer can empty. Sometimes they urge them to drink quicker, as they want to take the bottle or can before anyone else will get it. They walk back and forth, again and again, endlessly filling their dripping plastic bags.
I have seen her eyes, searching, focusing all the time, constantly moving, like a hawk, observing sharply. Every can is worth 15 cents, there are 100 cents to a euro. Every big plastic bottle is worth 40 cents. The more she collects the larger the deposit refund sum will be.
The competition is tough. There are also a few local people who collect bottles and cans as well. They all have to work fast, they can't afford to miss an empty can laying around somewhere. But actually, there are no cans just laying around, unless they are nonrefundable. The collectors know how to distinguish between the different sorts of bottles & cans. They won't lose time and bend for a nonrefundable one.
She works for hours, walking on her old feet, pausing sometimes, looking lost most of the time. But suddenly her face brightened up-- she saw two of her grandchildren "performing" with the band.
Her eyes shone in pride and a big joyful smile lit her sunburned tired face.
She looked at me and said: "My grandchildren!"
Oh, how I knew this pride in her voice and in her eyes. How many times have I not felt it in my soul for every achievement of my children and grandchildren. My heart kept beating and my face kept smiling whenever I saw my beloved, their beauty in body and mind, and my heart melted like butter on hot asphalt.
Oh, how I could relate to these feelings on a woman's face reflecting a mother's heart.
Our feelings don't differ that much when it comes to the ones we love and are proud of.

Lucerne (/ljuːˈsɜːrn/; German: Luzern [luˈtsɛrn] (About this soundlisten); French: Lucerne [lysɛʁn]; Italian: Lucerna [luˈtʃɛrna]; Romansh: Lucerna; Lucerne German: Lozärn) is a city in central Switzerland, in the German-speaking portion of the country. Lucerne is the capital of the canton of Lucerne and part of the district of the same name. With a population of about 81,057 people (as of 2013),[3] Lucerne is the most populous town in Central Switzerland, and a nexus of economics, transportation, culture, and media of this region. The city's urban area consists of 17 municipalities and towns located in three different cantons with an overall population of about 250,000 people (as of 2007).[4]
Owing to its location on the shores of Lake Lucerne (German: Vierwaldstättersee) and its outflow, the river Reuss, within sight of the mounts Pilatus and Rigi in the Swiss Alps, Lucerne has long been a destination for tourists. One of the city's famous landmarks is the Chapel Bridge (German: Kapellbrücke), a wooden bridge first erected in the 14th century.
The official language of Lucerne is (the Swiss variety of Standard) German, but the main spoken language is the local variant of the Alemannic Swiss German dialect.

History[edit]
Early history and founding (750–1386)[edit]
After the fall of the Roman Empire beginning in the 6th century, Germanic Alemannic peoples increased their influence on this area of present-day Switzerland.
Around 750 the Benedictine Monastery of St. Leodegar was founded, which was later acquired by Murbach Abbey in Alsace in the middle of the 9th century, and by this time the area had become known as Luciaria.[5]
The origin of the name is uncertain, it is possibly derived from the Latin name of the pike, lucius, thus designating a pike fishing spot in the river Reuss. Derivation from the theonym Lugus has been suggested but is phonetically implausible. In any case, the name was associated by popular etymology with Latin lucerna "lantern" from an early time.[6]
In 1178 Lucerne acquired its independence from the jurisdiction of Murbach Abbey, and the founding of the city proper probably occurred that same year. The city gained importance as a strategically located gateway for the growing commerce from the Gotthard trade route.
By 1290 Lucerne had become a self-sufficient city of reasonable size with about 3000 inhabitants. About this time King Rudolph I von Habsburg gained authority over the Monastery of St. Leodegar and its lands, including Lucerne. The populace was not content with the increasing Habsburg influence, and Lucerne allied with neighboring towns to seek independence from their rule. Along with Lucerne, the three other forest cantons of Uri, Schwyz and Unterwalden formed the "eternal" Swiss Confederacy, known as the Eidgenossenschaft, on November 7, 1332.
Later the cities of Zürich, Zug and Bern joined the alliance. With the help of these additions, the rule of Austria over the area came to an end. The issue was settled by Lucerne’s victory over the Habsburgs in the Battle of Sempach in 1386. For Lucerne this victory ignited an era of expansion. The city shortly granted many rights to itself, rights which had been withheld by the Habsburgs until then. By this time the borders of Lucerne were approximately those of today.
From city to city-state (1386–1520)[edit]
In 1415 Lucerne gained Reichsfreiheit from Emperor Sigismund and became a strong member of the Swiss confederacy. The city developed its infrastructure, raised taxes, and appointed its own local officials. The city’s population of 3000 dropped about 40% due to the Black Plague and several wars around 1350.
In 1419 town records show the first witch trial against a male person.
Swiss-Catholic town (1520–1798)[edit]
Lucerne in 1642
Among the growing towns of the confederacy, Lucerne was especially popular in attracting new residents. Remaining predominantly Catholic, Lucerne hosted its own annual passion play from 1453 to 1616. It was a two-day-long play of 12 hours performance per day.[7] As the confederacy broke up during the Reformation, after 1520, most nearby cities became Protestant, but Lucerne remained Catholic. After the victory of the Catholics over the Protestants in the Battle at Kappel in 1531, the Catholic towns dominated the confederacy. The region, though, was destined to be dominated by Protestant cities such as Zürich, Bern and Basel, which defeated the Catholic forces in the 1712 Toggenburg War. The former prominent position of Lucerne in the confederacy was lost forever. In the 16th and 17th centuries, wars and epidemics became steadily less frequent and as a result the population of the country increased strongly.
Lucerne was besieged by a peasant army and quickly signed a peace treaty with the rebels in the Swiss peasant war of 1653.
Century of revolutions (1798–1914)[edit]
Conflict at Lucerne, Illustrated London News, 1845
In 1798, nine years after the beginning of the French Revolution, the French army marched into Switzerland. The old confederacy collapsed and the government became democratic. The industrial revolution hit Lucerne rather late, and by 1860 only 1.7% of the population worked in industry, which was about a quarter of the national average at that time. Agriculture, which employed about 40% of the workers, was the main form of economic output in the canton. Nevertheless, industry was attracted to the city from areas around Lucerne. From 1850 to 1913, the population quadrupled and the flow of settlers increased. In 1856 trains first linked the city to Olten and Basel, then Zug and Zürich in 1864 and finally to the south in 1897.
21st century[edit]
On June 17, 2007, voters of the city of Lucerne and the adjacent town of Littau agreed to a merger in a simultaneous referendum. This took effect on January 1, 2010.[8] The new city, still called Lucerne, has a population of around 80,000 people, making it the seventh-largest city in Switzerland. The results of this referendum are expected to pave the way for negotiations with other nearby cities and towns in an effort to create a unified city-region, based on the results of a study.[9]
Geography and climate[edit]
Topography[edit]
Lucerne is located at the outfall of Lake Lucerne into the river Reuss, which flows from south-east to north-west. The city occupies both banks of the river and the lowest reach of the lake, with the city centre straddling the river immediately downstream of the outfall. The city's suburbs climb the hills to the north-east and south-west, and stretch out along the river and lake banks, whilst the recently added area of Littau is to the north-west.[10]
Besides this contiguous city area, the municipality also includes an exclave on the south shore of Lake Lucerne some 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) away, comprising the northern slopes of the Bürgenstock. This section of the municipality is entirely surrounded by the lake and by land of the canton of Nidwalden. It does not contain any significant settlements, but the summit of the Bürgenstock is the highest point of the municipality.[10]
The municipality has an area of 29.1 square kilometers (11.2 sq mi). Of this area and as of 2009, 28.0% is used for agricultural purposes, while 22.3% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 47.6% is settled (buildings or roads) and the remainder (2.1%) is non-productive (rivers, glaciers or mountains).[11]
Climate[edit]
Between 1961 and 1990 Lucerne had an average of 138.1 days of rain per year and on average received 1,171 mm (46.1 in) of precipitation. The wettest month was June during which time Lucerne received an average of 153 mm (6.0 in) of rainfall. During this month there was rainfall for an average of 14.2 days. The driest month of the year was February with an average of 61 mm (2.4 in) of precipitation over 10.2 days.[12] Climate in this area has mild differences between highs and lows, and there is adequate rainfall year-round. The Köppen Climate Classification subtype for this climate is "Cfb" (Marine West Coast Climate/Oceanic climate).[13]

The city grew up around Sankt Leodegar Abbey, founded in AD 840, and remained strongly Roman Catholic into the 21st century. By 1850, 96.9% of the population was Catholic, in 1900 it was 81.9% and in 1950 it was still 72.3%. In the 2000 census the religious membership of Lucerne was: 35,682 (60%) Roman Catholic, 9,227 (15.5%) Protestant, with an additional 1,979 (3.33%) who were of some other Christian denominations; 1,824 individuals (3.07% of the population) Muslim; 196 individuals (0.33% of the population) Jewish.

Lucerne is home to a number of major Swiss companies, including Schindler Group, Chronoswiss, Emmi, EF Education First and the Luzerner Kantonalbank. Suva, one of Switzerland's oldest accident insurance companies, is also based in Lucerne, as is the University of Lucerne, the youngest of Switzerland's traditional universitites.
Thanks to its continuous tax-cutting policies, Lucerne has become Switzerland's most business-friendly canton. As of 2012 Lucerne offers Switzerland's lowest corporate tax rate at cantonal level.[26]
Furthermore, Lucerne also offers very moderate personal income tax rates. In a recent published study of BAK Basel Economics taxation index 2012, Lucerne made it to the 4th place with an only marginally 2% higher tax rate compared to the top canton in this comparison.[27]
Since November 2009, Zurich Airport can be reached from Lucerne within 1 hour and 2 minutes[28] by a direct (every hour) train connection every half an hour with a stop just below the airport, and within 40 minutes by car due to a direct motorway from Lucerne to the Airport, but only if you travel outside of rush hours.
Sights[edit]
Since the city straddles the Reuss where it drains the lake, it has a number of bridges. The most famous is the Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke), a 204 m (669 ft) long wooden covered bridge originally built in 1333, the oldest covered bridge in Europe, although much of it had to be replaced after a fire on 18 August 1993, allegedly caused by a discarded cigarette. Part way across, the bridge runs by the octagonal Water Tower (Wasserturm), a fortification from the 13th century. Inside the bridge are a series of paintings from the 17th century depicting events from Lucerne's history. The Bridge with its Tower is the city's most famous landmark.
Lucerne city, lake and mountains view from the tower
Downriver, between the Kasernenplatz and the Mühlenplatz, the Spreuer Bridge (Spreuerbrücke or Mühlenbrücke, Mill Bridge) zigzags across the Reuss. Constructed in 1408, it features a series of medieval-style 17th century plague paintings by Kaspar Meglinger (de) titled Dance of Death (Totentanzzyklus). The bridge has a small chapel in the middle that was added in 1568.
Old Town Lucerne is mainly located just north of the Reuss, and still has several fine half-timber structures with painted fronts. Remnants of the old town walls exist on the hill above Lucerne, complete with eight tall watch towers. An additional gated tower sits at the base of the hill on the banks of the Reuss.
The twin needle towers of the Church of St. Leodegar, which was named after the city's patron saint, sit on a small hill just above the lake front. Originally built in 735, the present structure was erected in 1633 in the late Renaissance style. However, the towers are surviving remnants of an earlier structure. The interior is richly decorated. The church is popularly called the Hofkirche (in German) and is known locally as the Hofchile (in Swiss-German).
Bertel Thorvaldsen's famous carving of a dying lion (the Lion Monument, or Löwendenkmal) is found in a small park just off the Löwenplatz. The carving commemorates the hundreds of Swiss Guards of who were massacred in 1792 during the French Revolution, when an armed mob stormed the Tuileries Palace in Paris.
The Swiss Museum of Transport is a large and comprehensive museum exhibiting all forms of transport, including locomotives, automobiles, ships, and aircraft. It is to be found beside the lake in the northern-eastern section of the city.
The Culture and Convention Center (KKL) beside the lake in the center of the city was designed by Jean Nouvel. The center has one of the world's leading concert halls, with acoustics by Russell Johnson.
Culture and events[edit]
Culture[edit]
The Lucerne Culture and Congress Centre at night
Since plans for the new culture and convention centre arose in the late 1980s, Lucerne has found a balance between the so-called established culture and alternative culture. A consensus was reached that culminated in a culture compromise (Kulturkompromiss). The established culture comprises the Lucerne Culture and Congress Centre (KKL), the city theater (Luzerner Theater) and, in a broader sense, smaller establishments such as the Kleintheater, founded by comedian Emil Steinberger, a Lucerne native, or Stadtkeller, a music restaurant in the city's old town. KKL houses a concert hall as well as the Museum of Art Lucerne (Kunstmuseum Luzern).
Alternative culture took place mostly on the premises of a former tube factory, which became known as Boa. Other localities for alternative culture have since emerged in the same inner city area as Boa. Initially, Boa staged various plays, but concerts became more and more common; this new use of the building clashed with the development of apartment buildings on nearby lots of land. Due to possible noise pollution, Boa was closed and a replacement in a less heavily inhabited area is currently under construction. Critics claimed though that the new establishment would not meet the requirements for an alternative culture.
Südpol is a center for performing arts in Lucerne presenting music-, dance- and theatre-events. The house at the foot of Pilatus is opened since November 2008.
Lucerne is home to the Luzerner Sinfonieorchester, a category A symphonic orchestra, and to the 21st Century Symphony Orchestra, and they both hold most of their performances in the Lucerne Culture and Congress Centre.
Lucerne is also home to Keramikkonzerte (keramikkonzerte.com/), a series of classical chamber music concerts held throughout each year.
Events[edit]
Every year, towards the end of winter, Fasnacht (Carnival) breaks out in the streets, alleyways and squares of the old town. This is a glittering outdoor party, where chaos and merriness reign and nothing is as it normally is. Strange characters in fantastic masks and costumes make their way through the alleyways, while Guggenmusiken (carnival bands) blow their instruments in joyful cacophony and thousands of bizarrely clad people sing and dance away the winter. The Lucerner Fasnacht, based on religious, Catholic backgrounds, starts every year on the Thursday before Aschermittwoch (Ash Wednesday) with a big bang at 5am called Morgenwacht (Morning Watch). There are big parades in the afternoon on Schmotzige Donnerstag (literally: Lardy Thursday)[29] and the following Monday, called Güdismontag (literally: Paunch Monday), which attract tens of thousands of people. Lucerne's Carnival ends with a crowning finish on Güdisdienstag (literally: Paunch Tuesday) evening with the Monstercorso, a tremendous parade of Guggenmusiken, lights and lanterns with even a larger audience. Rather recently a fourth Fasnacht day has been introduced on the Saturday between the others Fasnacht days, the Rüüdige Samstag while mainly several indoor balls take place. From dusk till dawn on the evenings of Schmotzige Donnerstag, Güdismontag, and after the Monstercorso many bands wander through the historical part of the city playing typical Fasnacht tunes. Until midnight, the historical part of the city usually is packed with people participating. A large part of the audience are also dressed up in costumes, even a majority in the evenings.
Lucerne Fasnacht
The city hosts various renowned festivals throughout the year. The Lucerne Festival for classical music takes place in the summer. Its orchestra, the Lucerne Festival Orchestra, is hand-picked from some of the finest instrumentalists in the world. In June yearly the pop music festival B-Sides takes place in Lucerne. It focuses on international acts in alternative music, indie rock, experimental rock and other cutting edge and left field artistic musical genres. In July, the Blue Balls Festival brings jazz, blues and punk music to the lake promenade and halls of the Culture and Convention Center. The Lucerne Blues Festival is another musical festival which usually takes place in November. Since spring 2004, Lucerne has hosted the Festival Rose d'Or for television entertainment. And in April, the well-established comics festival Fumetto attracts an international audience.
Being the cultural center of a rather rural region, Lucerne regularly holds different folklore festivals, such as Lucerne Cheese Festival, held annually. In 2004, Lucerne was the focus of Swiss Wrestling fans when it had hosted the Swiss Wrestling and Alpine festival (Eidgenössisches Schwing- und Älplerfest), which takes place every three years in a different location. A national music festival (Eidgenössiches Musikfest) attracted marching bands from all parts of Switzerland in 2006. In summer 2008, the jodelling festival (Eidgenössisches Jodlerfest) is expected to have similar impact.
The 2021 Winter Universiade will be hosted by Lucerne.
Transport[edit]
Lucerne railway station
Lucerne boasts a developed and well-run transport network, with the main operator, Verkehrsbetriebe Luzern (VBL), running both the trolleybuses in Lucerne and a motor buses network in the city and to neighboring municipalities. Other operators, such as PostAuto Schweiz and Auto AG Rothenburg, provide bus services to other towns and villages.
Lucerne railway station is one of Switzerland's principal railway stations situated in the middle of the town and just next to the lake, and enjoys excellent connection to the rest of Switzerland via railway services operated by Swiss Federal Railways (SBB CFF FFS) and the Zentralbahn (zb). Two other stations are located within the city boundaries, with Lucerne Allmend/Messe railway station close to the Swissporarena in the south of the city, and the Lucerne Verkehrshaus railway station adjacent to the Swiss Museum of Transport in the east.
Lucerne's city transit system is fully integrated into the coherent and integrated fare network system called passepartout encompassing all kind of public transport in the cantons of Lucerne, Obwalden, and Nidwalden.
Sport[edit]
The Swissporarena is home to FC Lucerne of the Swiss Super League
There are several football clubs throughout the city. The most successful one is FC Luzern which plays in Switzerland's premier league (Swiss Super League). The club plays its home matches at the new Swissporarena, with a capacity of 16,800.
The city's main hockey team is the HC Luzern which plays in the Swiss Second League, the fourth tier of Swiss hockey. They play their home games in the 5,000-seat Swiss Life Arena.
In the past, Lucerne also produced national successes in men's handball and women's volleyball and softball.
Having a long tradition of equestrian sports, Lucerne has co-hosted CSIO Switzerland, an international equestrian show jumping event, until it left entirely for St. Gallen in 2006. Since then, the Lucerne Equestrian Masters replaced it. There is also an annual horse racing event, usually taking place in August.
Lucerne annually hosts the final leg of the Rowing World Cup on Rotsee Lake, and has hosted numerous World Rowing Championships, among others the first ever in 1962. Lucerne was also bidding for the 2011 issue but failed.
Lucerne hosts the annual Spitzen Leichtathletik Luzern Track and field meeting, which attracts world class athletes such as Yohan Blake and Valerie Adams.
The city also provides facilities for ice-hockey, figure-skating, golf, swimming, basketball, rugby, skateboarding, climbing and more.
Lucerne hosted FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour event Lucerne Open 2015 and FIVB Beach Volleyball U21 World Championship in 2016.
