'Pearly-white and slightly transparent...' The Sorting Hat. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
Jim Kay claimed that he finds colour really difficult - particularly watercolour. He asked if anyone could teach him. Lynne Chapman - you helped me. I nominate you!
But how can anyone who produces this stunning ghost say he struggles with colour? It was an accident - he said - when he hit a reverse colour button on his keyboard.

Sam Burckhardt
Nominated for the 2016 Swiss Jazz Award, the Chicago-based tenor saxman Sam Burkhardt, originally from Basel, brings back the magic of R&B, swing, and of the big bands of former days.
In his album "Fly Over", tenor saxophonist Sam Burckhardt travels ‒ or rather flies ‒ back to the age of rhythm and blues, swing and the Count Basie and Duke Ellington big bands. He co-wrote three compositions with guitarist Joel Paterson, one of them the swinging title song "Fly Over" (probably an allusion to Illinois Jacquet's "Fly Home"), a truly inspired piece somewhere between jazz and 1940s R&B. "Bird Watching" and "Early Bird Blues" also show the extent to which rhythm and blues and traditional jazz are part of Sam's identity. A native of Basel, Sam has lived in Chicago for over 30 years, performing with such great bluesmen as Sunnyland Slim ‒ so to him the sound of those years isn't nostalgia, it's more like a second skin. Burckhardt's quintet ‒ with keyboard player Pete Benson, bass player Beau Sample, drummer Alex Hall and guitarist Joel Paterson ‒ teases out the incomparable beauty of the standards they play with respect, even understatement.

Nominated for an award in 2009. Whilst it is excellent to have more public art, using good materials by accomplished artists, a question was asked: is it in the best place?
The project was launched in February 2008 with great support from James Hehir, chief executive of Ipswich Borough Council. The plan was to erect a permanent memorial to the Prince who was killed when his Hawker Hurricane crashed at Martlesham Heath Airfield in 1940. He was 24 years old when he died and was buried in Ipswich New Cemetery.

Synopsis:
Sometimes a beach isn't just a beach. As the sun goes down over the ocean, the sand comes to life and takes on the forms of an entire mini eco-system of aquatic life. Sea turtles are born, eels emerge to pursue their prey and Mother Earth orchestrates it all.

Female Rose-ringed Parakeet [nominate group] (Halsbåndparakitt / Psittacula krameri krameri) from Parque Doramas (Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, Spain).
Since first taking photos of the species on Gran Canaria a few years back I've learned that this bird, contrary to the Monk Parakeet that also exists on these islands, is a sub-Saharian African bird - so the birds found here doesn't necessarily have to be introduced by man. After all - the shortest distance from Gran Canaria to mainland Africa is only about 200km!

The Woodward Park and Gardens Historic District is nominated for listing on the National Register of Historic Places at the local level of significance under Criterion C, in the area of Landscape Architecture, as an excellent example of a designed landscape in the city of Tulsa, Oklahoma, and as one of the finest public gardens established in the city during the first half of the twentieth century. Woodward Park is best known for two garden areas the Upper and Lower Rock Gardens, and the formal terraces of the Tulsa Rose Garden that were established during the 1930s using public monies and constructed by laborers enrolled in work-relief programs. The Woodward Park and Gardens Historic District is also eligible to be listed to the National Register at the local level under Criterion C for Architecture, for the David R. Travis House, an Italian Renaissance-inspired villa designed by architect Noble B. Fleming and constructed in 1919. The City of Tulsa purchased the Travis House in 1954 to serve as the Tulsa Garden Center, and it has functioned in this capacity since then. The grounds of the Tulsa Garden Center include other designed landscape features and related buildings, such as a stone driveway, a brick carriage house, sunken garden, a glass conservatory from the Lord & Burnham Company, and a large, framed barn that now serves as the Learning Center of the Linnaeus Teaching Gardens. For its association with the activities of the Tulsa Garden Club and the Tulsa Garden Center, the Woodward Park and Gardens Historic District is also eligible to be listed on the National Register at the local level of significance under Criterion A, in the area of Entertainment/Recreation. The district includes the first municipal rose garden established in the state of Oklahoma, and the park and its gardens continue to serve as the premiere environment in the city of Tulsa for the public's enjoyment and knowledge of ornamental horticulture and trees.

Ruggedly handsome American actor and singer Jeff Chandler (1918-1961) was best known for his portrayal of legendary Native American Apache chief Cochise in Broken Arrow (1950), for which he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. In the 1950s, he was one of Hollywood's most popular film stars and stood out for his imposing stature, his sex appeal, and his early greying hair.
Jeff Chandler was born Ira Grossel to a Jewish family in Brooklyn, N.Y., in 1918. He was the only child of Anna (née Herman) and Phillip Grossel. He was raised by his mother after his parents separated when he was a child. After attending Erasmus High School, he took acting classes at the Feagin School of Dramatic Art in New York. He then worked for radio for a while before joining a theatre company on Long Island as an actor and stage manager. He founded his own company, the Shady Lane Playhouse, in Illinois in the summer of 1941. The company toured the Midwest with some success until the United States became involved in World War II. He was active as a soldier in the Aleutians for four years, finishing with the rank of lieutenant. After the war, Chandler appeared on air in 'Rogue's Gallery 'with Dick Powell, who was impressed by the actor. Powell put pressure on Columbia to give Chandler his first film role, a one-line uncredited part as a gangster in Johnny O'Clock (Robert Rossen, 1947). Chandler received more attention playing Eve Arden's love interest on the radio in 'Our Miss Brooks', which debuted in July 1948 and became a massive hit. Chandler's performance in 'Our Miss Brooks' brought him to the attention of executives at Universal, who were looking for someone to play an Israeli leader in Sword in the Desert (George Sherman, 1949) starring Dana Andrews. Chandler impressed studio executives so much with his work that shortly into filming, Universal signed him to a seven-year contract. His first film under the arrangement was a supporting role in the Film Noir Abandoned (Joseph M. Newman, 1949). He was best known for his role as Apache chief Cochise in Broken Arrow (Delmer Daves, 1950) with James Stewart and Debra Paget. Broken Arrow turned out to be a considerable hit, earning Chandler an Oscar nomination and establishing him as a star. He was the first actor nominated for an Academy Award for portraying an American Indian. He reprised that successful character twice more in The Battle at Apache Pass (George Sherman, 1952) and in Taza, Son of Cochise (Douglas Sirk, 1954).
During his short career, Jeff Chandler starred several times in Westerns. He not only played an Indian, but he also stood his ground as a cavalry major as shown in Two Flags West (Robert Wise, 1950) starring Joseph Cotten and War Arrow (\George Sherman, 1953) with Maureen O'Hara. Chandler became one of Universal Pictures' more popular male stars of the 1950s. In addition to his acting in film, he was known for his role in the radio program 'Our Miss Brooks', as Phillip Boynton, her fellow teacher and clueless object of affection, and for his musical recordings. Chandler recorded several successful albums for Liberty Records, wrote music, played violin, and owned Chandler Music, a publishing company. His other film credits include the Film Noir Deported (Robert Siodmak, 1950) starring Märta Torén, Female on the Beach (Joseph Pevney, 1955) opposite Joan Crawford, and Away All Boats (Joseph Pevney, 1956) with George Nader. In 1957, he left Universal and signed a contract with United Artists. Having long desired to be an executive, he formed his own company, Earlmar Productions. He was due to star in Operation Petticoat (Blake Edwards, 1959) but became ill and had to pull out. He later formed another production company, August, for which he made The Plunderers (Joseph Pevney, 1960) at Allied Artists. His last film role was that of Brigadier General Frank D. Merrill in Merrill's Marauders (Samuel Fuller, 1962), the last of several World War II films in which he was able to use his military experience. He injured his back while playing baseball with U.S. Army Special Forces soldiers who served as extras in the film. After undergoing surgery for a spinal disc herniation in May 1961, a major artery was damaged and he haemorrhaged. In a seven-and-a-half-hour emergency operation over and above the original surgery, he was given 55 pints of blood. Another surgery followed where he received an additional 20 pints of blood. He died in the hospital in Culver City, California, in 1961. The cause was a blood infection complicated by pneumonia. He was 42 years old. His death was deemed malpractice and resulted in a large lawsuit and settlement for his children. Jeff Chandler was married from 1946 to 1959 to actress Marjorie Hoshelle with whom he had two daughters. In 1957, he had an affair with Esther Williams while they made a film together, and his wife filed for divorce at the end of the year. Chandler rests in Hillside Memorial Park Cemetery, a Jewish cemetery near Los Angeles.
