Octave Dua, Belgian secondary tenor, supporting/cameo artist and stage director (1882-1952). Entirely forgotten, despite a superb international career. Hence the scarcity of his iconographic/acoustic material.

My pride and joy.
This took an age to get the signal path right and I'm still not 100% on it yet. It also took some extreme engineering to fit everything on the board.

On the wall of Gomer's Liquors, 87th Street Parkway at Elmridge Street.
From Gomer's website:
The mural depicts five significant historical figures from the early days of the City of Lenexa.
On the far left we have Squire Charles Bradshaw and his wife Sarah. In 1869, the Bradshaws donated a portion of their land to the railroads. Their land was a fruit tree farm and is shown in the mural with a pear tree. Lenexa was almost called Bradshaw, Kansas; however, Bradshaw declined the offer out of modesty.
To the right of the train is Octave Chanute, a civil engineer and aviation pioneer. In 1869, Chanute platted the land that the Bradshaws donated. How you travel around Old Town Lenexa today was engineered by Octave Chanute. Chanute can be seen portrayed by Lenexa Council Member Bill Nicks in several videos on the living history of Lenexa.
On the far right is James Butler “Wild Bill” Hickok. Hickok is noted for many things but, to Lenexa he was known for being a lawman; in 1858, he was the first constable of Monticello township (later becoming Lenexa), a Free State militia scout, and bodyguard to General James Henry Lane.
In the center is Dorothy Moody. Moody was a teacher and a descendant of the Moody family who were early pioneers of Lenexa. The Moody family arrived in the area circa 1857 and sickled native grasses in the fields that were to become Lenexa. This fed the ox teams bringing freight up from the Missouri river to Westport. Their original homestead was near the current Oak Park Mall area. You can also find the Moody family plot in the Lenexa Cemetery located near 87th St. and Pflumm. The Moody family is very near and dear to the Gomer’s name. One of the founding owners of the original Gomer’s Fine Wine and Spirits is Ed “Gomer” Moody. Ed Moody started Gomer’s with Sollie “Bud” McLeroy and his brothers in 1969 with a filling station and later, a fine wine and spirits store on 99th and Holmes in KCMO. In 1997, after growing up in the business, Steve McLeroy (Bud’s son), along with his wife Kathy, wanted to expand into Kansas and they opened Gomer’s of Kansas on 87th St. and 69 Hwy. In 2018, they moved to the current location in Lenexa’s City Center. The Moody family name continues to have ties in Lenexa with this store and its connection to Ed “Gomer” Moody.
The landscape shows prairie grass being sickled by the Moody family while first living in tents on the open prairie. A fruit tree, meadowlarks, sunflowers and wheat are depicted. A train shows the importance of the railroads in Lenexa during the great days of railroading.
The artists who created the mural are: Caspian Kinnell, Madeline “Noel” Knaus, Dawn Lewallen, Lauren Koluch, Holly “Rae” Letenyei, and Shannon McLeroy. All the artists are Illustration graduates of The Kansas City Art Institute. The mural was completed on September 1, 2019.

Mosaic of the nave in 1922, designed by Leonard Strojnowski, benches designed by Francis Mączyński a backdrop confessionals John Bukowski. Stations of the Cross purchased in France in 1937 by the Jesuits, for the purpose of churches in Kołomyja, but in 1946 it was brought to Krakow and installed in 1959.
The high altar, built between 1915-1920, is the work of Francis Mączyński. Frieze of mosaic in the chancel was designed in 1913 by Peter Stachiewicz, and executed by the company Gianese Angelo in Venice. The church was placed in 1921. Mosaic is 30 meters long, is a tribute to Christ by the holy and blessed Polish led by St . Stanislaus and the Polish nation, famed for Jesus by Queen Jadwiga Andegawenkę and her husband, King Wladyslaw Jagiello.
The six side altars made in stucco placed between 1920-1930 sculptures by Charles Hukana. Attention is drawn in particular altar of Our Lady of the Angels, who, according to art historians, is one of the most valuable works of sacred art in Poland in the interwar period . Virgin Mary is presented as Queen of the crown, adored by a group of eight angels.

1896 Octave Chanute glider at the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace, Chalais-Meudon in June 1977.
Scan from a 35mm slide.
Octave Chanute was one of the most influential figures in the early days of aviation. His 1894 book "Progress in Flying Machines" provided many aviation pioneers, including the Wright brothers, with invaluable technical data.
The Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace in the mid '70s was in the process of relocating to its current site at Paris - Le Bourget Airport. At the time of my visit in 1977 only the exhibits from the early days of aviation and from WWI were still at Chalais-Meudon.

This is Norada's Five Octave Yacht Piano in the Saloon.
Norada is a 53ft Wherry Yacht built in 1912 by Ernest Collins. She was designed to be smaller and more sprightly than the working wherries to allow her to pass under some of the lower bridges within the Norfolk Broads.
www.wherryyachtcharter.org/trust.html
The Wherry is a shallow-draughted single-sailed boat indigenous to the Norfolk Broads. The hull of a wherry is generally clinker-built (overlapping planks) out of oak. Its rarity nowadays is attributed to the design; only in the unique calm and shallow broads were wherries produced and used. The remarkably low depth of the waterways requires the hull to be similarly shallow, and the single mast is tall, holding one edge of its vast pointed sail to catch the breeze above the trees. To enable the wherries to pass under tight bridges, the mast is counterweighted and can be gently lowered. No other sailing vessels like them can be found in the world, the closest being the colourful Dutch boats built to sail the dykes on the flat reclaimed land - these can be found on rare occasions on the Norfolk Broads themselves, brought over from the Netherlands. The wherry, however, is the only sailing vessel of its size or carrying capacity that can cover almost all the waterways on the Broads, including the odd secluded dyke.
The Octave of Easter, known as Low Sunday, Quasimodo Sunday, has also come to be known in more recent times as "Divine Mercy Sunday." It was through St. John Paul II that the Octave of Easter received this new title in the Church's calendar. Drawing inspiration from the diary of Sister Faustina, the Octave of Easter has received a renewed emphasis on the mercy of God.
In a beautiful homily delivered on this day by St. Augustine of Hippo, he declared to the newly baptized, "You have been buried with Christ by baptism into death in order that, as Christ has risen from the dead, you also may walk in newness of life." For it was traditionally on this day that the Church received her newly baptized catechumens with maternal delight. Holy Mother Church rejoiced over her new children, all of which is made possible by the mercy of God in calling us to Himself while we were yet sinners.
St. Faustina recorded these words from our Lord Himself: "I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy." May we turn with trust to the Divine Mercy of Almighty God and seek Him in all things.

Octave Chanute was one of America’s early aviation pioneers, with his first hang glider designs being test flown in 1896. Two years previously he had published ‘Progress in Flying Machines’ which included all the world’s aviation pioneers and would later be used as a reference by the Wright Brothers. Chanute’s 1903 glider was built for him by William Avery, who then went on to demonstrate it at the 1904 World’s Fair in St.Louis. This replica of it was built in 1980.

Parish Church of St. Blasius in Fulda
Front (To see another pictures please activate the link at the end of page!)
The Parish Church of St. Blaise is the parent parish of all Catholic parishes in the city of Fulda and the last major building, which was built in the baroque period.
History
Shortly after the founding of the monastery of Fulda settled in the immediate vicinity artisans and merchants. To ensure the parochial care, the first church was built around 970, which was probably dedicated to St. Mauritius. 1049 the parish was first mentioned as "market parish" in a document. After a fire in 1103 the church was rebuilt in the Romanesque style. Since the reign of Abbot Conrad of Malkos (1221-1246) St. Blaise is guaranteed as patron of the church.
In the period 1447 to 1470 the church was rebuilt in the Gothic style, of which yet the north-west tower remains today. To the north of it, an ancient stone gate system has remained. There is access to the old parish church cemetery, the one day was around the church. During the Reformation, Adam Krafft preached the new doctrine, which pushed not through. In the time of the Hessian occupation of Fulda to the Counter-Reformation Protestant service was held in the parish church. 1771 was demolished the old church under Prince-Bishop Heinrich von Bibra and started the construction of a baroque church. The plans for this originate from the Jesuit Father Andreas Anderjoch. The consecration took place on 17 August in 1785. 1837 a new organ was installed, which was renewed in 1901.
Architecture
The church was built as a three-aisled basilica in the style of Baroque. It has two towers: on the one hand is the still originating from the previous church north tower, which serves as a bell tower. In the from the Baroque era stemming south tower is the former watchman home of the Fulda watchman, which can be reached via 162 steps. On the by the two towers surrounded west facade is above the main portal the Fulda coat of arms. It is followed by a round-arched window as well as the crest Heinrich von Bibra. Above this crest there is a stone sculpture of St. Blasius.
The high altar was created by the artists Hoys and Wittmann of red-brown Stuckmarmorist (stucco marbling) in conformity with the high altar of Fulda Cathedral. Instead of the altar sheet you will find here a large crucifix yet stemming from the earlier church, thereon again the coat of arms of Heinrich von Bibra. The altar is flanked by two statues of St. Boniface and St. Blaise. The side altars are consecrated to St. Aloysius (this comes from the Fulda Jesuit Church) and St. Boniface.
There are two frescoes by Johann Andreas Herrlein representing the Sermon on the Mount and the expulsion of the merchants from the temple on the vaulted ceiling. In addition, can be found above the Arkardenbögen (arcade archs) medallions with presentations of eight of the twelve apostles.
As part of the roof renovation was discovered at the end of 2000 in the upper east wall of the south aisle a closed with masonry stone head. It turned out to be part (head of Christ) of a former so-called "Mount of Olives", which was demolished during the late Baroque building. The beautiful, expressive stone sculpture in the round, which was hidden in the wall 226 years is to visit in the church today.
Organ
Look at the organ
The organ of the parish church dates from the year 1837. It was reorganized in 2003-2004 by the organ builder Klais Bonn. The instrument has 50 stops on three manuals and pedal. The key action is mechanical, the stop action pneumatic. Since 2004, the instrument has an electronic combination system.
