According to the World Refugee Survey 2008, published by the US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, Nepal hosted a population of refugees and asylum seekers in 2007 numbering approximately 130,000. Of this population, approximately 109,200 persons were from Bhutan and 20,500 from People's Republic of China. The government of Nepal restricted ethnic Nepalese expelled from Bhutan to seven camps in the Jhapa and Morang districts, and refugees were not permitted to work in most professions. At present, the United States is working towards resettling more than 60,000 of these refugees in the US.

Not only did Whatley absorb details of her stories, through the actress's brilleantly vivid written accounts but sought to capture visually the feeling and atmosphere of her memories, as shared through personal email correspondence,
Depicted here, one of the most traumatic and dramatic moments of her life, when Mamie was rescued from an entertainment engagements during her two visits to entertain the troupes during the Vietnam war in 1968 and 1971.
Artist Stephen B. Whatley is primarily an painter of expressionist oil paintings - whose vibrant work is permanently show-cased outside the Tower of London, through his series of 30 paintings charting the Tower's history that were commissioned in 2000.

************************
Virtually everyone in America, as well as millions of other people around the world, know that Thanksgiving is one of the main occasions for organizing a huge parade.
It’s especially true in New York City, where I live — hundreds of parade workers converge on a one-block stretch between Columbus Avenue and Central Park West on 77th Street on the night before Thanksgiving to assemble the floats, and pump the huge balloons full of helium, so they’ll be ready to go the next morning. The parade itself lasts for hours, and stretches all the way down Central Park West and Broadway, and ultimately through Herald Square and past the main entrance to Macy’s on 34th Street. The whole thing is televised for the benefit of viewers all around the world, with TV commentators and an endless procession of marching bands, baton-twirlers, singers, dancers, jugglers, magicians, Broadway actors, and other forms of entertainment…
While New York City may be the only example of a Thanksgiving-Day parade that people around the world actually see on their TV screen, it’s definitely not the only such parade that takes place in this country. I’m sure that every big city has its own version of the turkey-day parade, as do most of the medium-size cities, and quite a few smaller towns and villages, too. They may not be visible on television, but a lot of local citizens and visitors turn out to watch such parades, if only because their sons and daughters are typically marching in the high-school bands that form a big part of the event.
On this particular occasion — in November of 2013 — I happened to be in one such medium-size city, where the parade took place on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. It was in Portland, Oregon where we were spending the holiday period with one of our sons and his family; the parade took place in the “Pearl District” of downtown Portland … and, to our amazement, we were able to park our car about a block from the parade route, and walk right up to the corner (at Davis St and NW Park, if you want to track it down on Google Maps) where all of the bands and floats and costumed marchers walked by. In fact, I was able to take the “parade experience” even one step further: the people were friendly enough, and the security was light enough, that I was able to walk right out into the middle of the street with my camera, to photograph the floats and bands and marchers as they approached me … scampering out of the way only at the last moment.
Admittedly, Portland is a much bigger city than a tiny village of a thousand people somewhere in the midwest … but it still felt like “small town America” to me, and it was a great spectacle to watch. I got the impression that many of the visitors and observers standing along the street actually knew the people marching past them … and in any case, the marchers laughed and smiled and walked right up to us, handing out little pieces of candy to all of the children. Maybe next year I’ll go looking for a really small Thanksgiving parade in one of those tiny midwest-America villages, before retreating back to the Big Apple to watch the spectacle of thousands of marchers parading past millions of observers, and a TV audience of tens of millions …
I wish that I had taken some video clips of the parade, because the sounds and the music and the motion were a big part of what we experienced. But for better or worse, all I took was a bunch of traditional still photos. Actually, I took a LOT of still photos — nearly a thousand, altogether — but I’ve winnowed the collection down to 50 “keepers” that I hope will give you a sense of what Thanksgiving is all about…
Actually, if you live anywhere besides New York City here in the U S of A, you already know what Thanksgiving is all about, at least to the extent that it’s symbolized by the parade. But for those of us who spend most our time in New York City, it was a very pleasant experience indeed. After an hour, it was all over; we walked back to our car a block away, and drove back to our son’s house … and a day later, we were back in New York City. And thus ended another Thanksgiving holiday, at least until 2014.

The white-tailed deer is the most common of all of North America’s large mammals. It is also the most widely distributed. A deer's home range is usually less the a square mile. Deer collect in family groups of a mother and her fawns. When a doe has no fawns, she is usually solitary. Male bucks may live in groups consisting of three or four individuals, except in mating season, when they are solitary. White-tailed deer mate in November and the female has one to three fawns after about six months after mating.

Dolores Fuller (1923-) is the now legendary former leading lady of the early 1950s B-pictures of Hollywood film director Edward D Wood Jr (1924-1978).
'Eddie' Wood never got a true break in Hollywood's mainstream film industry; but between 1953 & 1960, he directed 6 films - horror, sci-fi and thriller themes- that reveal an artistry and utterly unique vision, to those more perceptive viewers who can look beyond the restraints of budget.
Dolores Fuller fell in love with Wood and starred in 3 of his motion pictures: Glen or Glenda (US 1953); Jail Bait (US 1954) and Bride of The Monster (US 1955) - but by 1956, with Wood's devastating wartime scars and disappointments in Hollywood resulting in alcoholism, Dolores felt that she had to pull away. As a model and bit actress on television she had been supporting him financially - and trying to keep him off the bottle- since they had met.
While continuing to appear in small roles in films (including an effective emotional scene in Playgirl, US 1954; with Shelley Winters) and on television (including parts in Superman & Dragnet), Dolores Fuller followed her even more natural talent of song-writing - going on to write 18 hit songs for Elvis Presley; and in the 1960s and 1970s to managing future singing stars such as Johnny Rivers and Tanya Tucker.
By 1980, two years after Edward D Wood Jr had died tragically in abject poverty, ironically in Hollywood, the 'ignored' director received posthumous fame and cult status - as his films wre rediscovered by 'film critics' who wrote books deriding his efforts to bring his ideas to the screen.
So too at this time, the limelight fell on his surviving stars and players - including the beautiful Dolores Fuller. Tim Burton's affectionate biopic 14 years later only increased the interest in this multi-talented lady - who to this day exhudes the Hollywood glamour that eludes contemporary stars. She was in demand on screen; for interviews in documentaries about Ed Wood Jr: The Incredibly Strange Film Show (1988); Look Back In Angora (1994) & The Haunted World of Edward D Wood Jr (1996).
Ever since the mid -1980s artist (& B-movie afficianado) Stephen B Whatley had hoped to locate Ms Fuller, to express his admiration; and in 1996, his research led him to reach her in Las Vegas, NV, to where he sent a cartoon tribute he had created (top left; inspired by her appeareance in a 1994 interview).
Thrilled, Dolores Fuller kept in touch, so kindly sending photographs; and then after she had received another 'cartoon surprise' from the artist in 2003, she wrote asking permission to publish it in her recently published memoirs, A Fuller Life: Hollywood, Ed Wood & Me ( Bearmanor Media Books)
Lower right of the compilation picture above is the colour tribute, owned by Ms Fuller, which has been published in black & white on a full page; below which the star writes touchingly that "my friend...neatly captures my career with this cartoon" Shown here above the cartoon, is the 1995 photograph that inspired the central 'latterday' likeness.
Dolores Fuller's autobiography ( assisted by author Stone Wallace & her devoted husband Philip Chamberlin) is a powerful and fascinating read, punctuated with great humour - about a lady determined to follow her dreams, to succeed with her talent; charting the highs and lows in both her professional and personal life.
Lavishly illustrated with many great black & white photographs, the book reveals a passionate beauty, married several times; who charmed several famous men- including Johnny Carson and Frank Sinatra.
She writes of the tragic lives of her 'Eddie' Wood, her late dearest friend actress Mona McKinnon (who starred in Plan 9 From Outer Space (US 1956)) & the tragic loss of her younger son- with great tenderness (...that is so evident in her eyes, to anyone who has watched her latterday interviews on film & television); before ending on a high note - her dream of getting the musical she has been writing, 'Ed Wood...But I wouldn't' on to Broadway; hopefully with Johnny Depp as lead.
Dolores Fullers most recent public appearance was at an awards ceremony in Los Angeles at which she humbly accepted a Lifetime Achievement Award. As glamorous as ever, she was dressed strikingly in black and swathed in white angora, with a new chic short hairstyle...once a star, always a star!

Frederic Remington (1861–1909) was an American painter, illustrator, sculptor, and writer. He had a great interest in the American Old West, concentrating on the image of cowboys, Native Americans, horses, and the US cavalry. He rose to prominence with interpretations of frontier life, with many of his illustrations published in popular journals such as Harper’s Weekly and Pearson’s Magazine. His nocturnal paintings were filled with color and light, moonlight, firelight, and candlelight.

I just published my first ebook on Smashwords and Amazon. Each company sells it for different kinds of e-readers. If you're curious you can download a small sample on either site.
Anyway, it was a bit of a challenge to get it done but I'm super happy it's done now. I've had an earlier version of this book and another one with all animal photographs for sale as printed mini-books for years now (I sell them at craft fairs), but always wanted to get them online too.

The area in the photograph is now a virtual racetrack, with very large numbers of vehicles jostling for position as they manoeuvre their way round the one-way system.
Purley
Purley is an area of the London Borough of Croydon. It was part of the county of Surrey until 1965. It is located south of the town of Croydon, and 11.7 miles (18.8 km) south of Charing Cross. It had a population of about 14,000 in 2011.
Aviation
Kenley Aerodrome, to the east of the town, was one of the key fighter stations - together with Croydon Airport and Biggin Hill - during the World War II support of Dunkirk, Battle of Britain and defence of London.
Suburban Growth
Purley grew rapidly in the 1920's and 1930's, providing spacious homes in a green environment. Northeast Purley stretches into the chalk hill spurs of the North Downs.
Promenade de Verdun
One road, Promenade de Verdun, created by William Webb, has a distinction all of its own. It is 600 yards (550 m) long, and has on one side Lombardy poplars planted in local soil mixed with French earth specially shipped over to the UK.
A plaque at one end of the road explains that the French Ministry of the Interior donated the soil from Armentières, as a memorial to the alliance of the Great War and the soldiers who died.
At the other end stands an obelisk carved from a single piece of stone with the inscription:
"Aux soldats de France morts
glorieusement pendant la Grande
Guerre".
Purley in WWII
The 32nd. Surrey Battalion of the Home Guard was known as the Factory Battalion, and had the specific task of guarding the Purley Way factories: its units were mainly based on staff from the individual firms.
The factories adjoining Croydon Airport took the worst of the air raid of the 15th. August 1940: the British NSF factory was almost entirely destroyed, and the Bourjois factory gutted, with a total of over sixty civilian deaths.
A comprehensive history of Purley and its growth around Caterham Junction (now Purley Station) with the coming of the railways some 150 years ago is found in the Bourne Society's 'Purley Village History' and in its Local History Records publications.
The Webb Estate
The Webb Estate made headlines in a 2002 survey, which found that it had over the years attracted the highest-earning residents in the UK. In the same year Purley topped Britain's rich list, becoming the most affluent suburb.
Purley consistently features among the most affluent suburbs in Britain owing to its exclusive gated estates, large houses and greenery, yet it is less than 30 minutes from central London by train, thus attracting wealthy city workers.

This is Five Points, a cocktail created at Death & Co in Denver, Colorado and published in the Happy Hour Handbook in 2020 (see note). The drink's namesake comes from the Five Points neighborhood in Denver which is also where Death & Co is located. This is a spirit-forward cocktail that uses a split-base of reposado tequila and mezcal. This base modified by two bitter elements, Punt e Mes and Amaro Nardini. Punt e Mes is unlike a lot of sweet vermouths since it is significantly more bitter, even to the point of sometimes being considered an amaro. Nardini is an amaro with only three botanicals (bitter orange, peppermint, gentian root) and does well to harmonize the agave spirits and the Punt e Mes. There's a bit of walnut liqueur which is a type of addition that is hard to notice, but evident when it's missing. The Xocolatl Mole bitters always goes well with agave spirits and really puts the finishing touch on this drink. For a drink without a lot of "age" in its spirits, it drinks a lot like smoky and complex Manhattan.
1.5 oz tequila (they use Tequila Ocho)
0.5 oz mezcal (they use Del Maguey Vida)
0.5 oz Punt e Mes
0.5 oz Amaro Nardini
1 tsp walnut liqueur also called nocino
2 dashes Bittermens Xocolatl Mole bitters
Combine all of the ingredients into a mixing glass. Add ice and stir until arctic cold. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass like a Nick and Nora. Garnish with an orange peel.
Note: The Happy Hour Handbook is a compilation of cocktail and appetizer recipes collected from Denver bars. All proceeds from the book sales go to support the restaurants that contributed during this difficult season.
