<mask> (born 1946, (Berkeley, California) is a multimedia artist who was at the forefront of the studio quilt art movements. She has been called a "fine artist [who works] with quilting techniques." Early life

<mask> grew up in a household with quilts but "took their presence for granted" along with other family skills such as "knitting, crochet, and dressmaking." As a child, <mask>'s "early successes were art-related." She competitively won the rank as "class artist" and teachers called on her when they "needed drawings for their classroom." She "learned to sew from her mother (as) clothing was expensive" and could more economically be made at home. Studio art quilt movement

<mask> was "aware of the national and California art scenes" as well as the 1965 beginnings of the studio art quilt movement, "an art form that uses traditional quilting techniques to create art objects."She chose to "forget all about it (the movement) and just work from (her) daily life (and) experiences." In retrospect, she, along with others such as Jean Ray Laury, Yvonne Porcella, and Therese May, drove the California art quilt revolution while others were doing the same thing in New England and Ohio. She realized her art training could be used on textiles. <mask> eventually expanded her repertoire to add art quilter to her career as an artist. In 1974 she joined "a feminist consciousness-raising group" where she was introduced to quilt making. She tried the craft at home using a book by Michael James, The Quiltmaker's Handbook. She recalled, "His first book was invaluable because (it) showed us how to stack all the pinned pieces .. . and (to) sew them in long flags" and "his work was important . . . because it was contemporary." She initially made a crazy quilt then "made a few more quilts but began designing her own repeat blocks rather than copying old ones." She soon realized "she was gratified by the warm reception viewers gave to

 quilts." She noticed, "the difference in feeling between a person looking at a drawing and a person looking at a quilt was really remarkable. There is no distance between a person and fabric, especially when it has all these romantic and nostalgic feelings." It became apparent that it was fairly "easy to sew while she was home with her young children."Initially, "she worked in relative isolation, not realizing other artists were making quilts." She used her skills as an artist to create "geometric designs in fiber." Before long, this art quilter "exploited new technology." Her quilts "evolved from colorful pieced work exploring decidedly modern geometric constructions to largely monochromatic abstractions painted with an airbrush." Education

<mask>'s formal education in art began at San Francisco State University but was interrupted by the "riots of the 1960s". She moved with her husband, Robert Comings, also a multi-media artist, to a "rural country existence" in Mendocino County in northern California gave her the opportunity to finish her Bachelor of Arts degree in 1978. <mask> eventually received a teaching credential from Dominican University (1985, San Rafael, CA) allowing her to teach high school in "art and other subjects," She then pursued an MFA, also from San Francisco State University (1992), specializing in textiles.<mask> taught art for three semesters at San Francisco State. Quilt artist phases

Nancy Bavor's master's thesis, The California Art Quilt Revolution identified three stylistic phases of <mask>'s work as a quilt artist. The initial phase of creating large three-dimensional landscapes soon gave way to her second phase using an airbrush to "(render) fanciful monochrome figures on fabric that she then assembled into quilts." Her third phase continued use of the airbrush as the "imagery and message evolved" using "recognizable northern California plants and animals" in her art. She was

 particularly interested in highlighting the "intense logging and its effect on the Mendocino forests that surrounded her, and the small town where she lives . . . using sensitivity and a sense of humor (to defuse) some of the community tension." Author Sandra Sider commented on <mask>'s "fierce environmentalism" that manifested itself in the comforting folds of fabric.One of the shows she has exhibited in was called "Soft Protests" at the New England Quilt Museum in Lowell, Massachusetts. Like other artists and quilt artists of the day, <mask> did not expect to make a living selling her art or teaching quilting skills. Her passion for art became the reason for doing it. "The need to do art, which I think is universal, is one of the main reasons for being alive . . . that aesthetic experience, that excitement." Exhibitions

<mask>'s early exhibitions were in the county museum of her hometown of Willits. Annual shows curated by Sandra Metzler, the first president of the American Quilt Study Group, gave her encouragement.Initially, as she approached galleries, she could not say, "she made quilts" as she would then not be considered a serious artist. Her preference is to show her quilts as part of multi-media exhibits including "craft, painting, drawing, and printmaking." Her quilts have been exhibited in prestigious galleries nationwide in the decades beginning in the 1980s including San Jose's "American Museum of Quilts & Textiles." She has exhibited numerous times in "Quilt National" in Athens, Ohio, and "Visions" in Oceanside, California, the country's premier venues for art quilt exhibitions. Her prolific career has included a dozen solo, two, and three-person exhibitions; awards from exhibitions in Ohio and Tokyo; inclusion in over 100 exhibitions; images published in almost 50 books and magazines; as well as having her art in permanent collections in The Museum of Art & Design (New York, NY), The White House

 (Washington, D.C.), and the City of San Francisco. A 2013 mixed-media show at Mendocino College Art Gallery, "<mask>: Images of a Changing California,” called her “a prominent Mendocino artist who has been actively involved in creating art focused on strong ecological themes in a whimsical and poignant manner.” The show, curated by Paula Gray, subtitled, "20 years of art from ecological concerns to homespun whimsy" contained 46 pieces of <mask>'s art. Environmentalism

<mask> "is best known for her environmental work" born of her experience living in northern California.Quilts highlighting environmental themes such as oil drilling followed her "series of quilts with a logging theme" called, "What is Happening to the Trees?" She has a gift of approaching these sensitive subjects with "a playful sense of humor." An example of this is Even the Old Growth Must Work for Its Keep. Gallery Route One in Point Reyes, California, highlighted <mask>'s work in a one-person show in 2010 called, "<mask>: Stories from the North Woods.”  This mixed-media exhibition included drawings, paintings, fiber, and eco-graphics. Her fiber section used “tongue-in-cheek humor to state the obvious.”  <mask>'s unique vantage born of literally living and "(working) on the edge" of the forests of Mendocino County informs her environmental art including a series on the Spotted Owl called, Spotted Owl vs. The Chain Saw. Another important fiber series, Trees, Lumber, Houses, and People "tells a story in a dozen chapters" chronicling the life of a forest being decimated by logging until it is eventually "the inevitable forest of stumps."<mask>, an "artist, who began as a painter, switched to textiles in the 1980s, and soon combined the two," primarily painting on traditional canvas as of 2013.

title: Richard Glücks

texts:
<mask> (; 22 April 1889 – 10 May 1945) was a high-ranking German Nazi official in the SS. From November 1939 until the end of World War II, he was Concentration Camps Inspector (CCI), which became Amt D: Konzentrationslagerwesen under the WVHA in Nazi Germany. As a direct subordinate of Heinrich Himmler, he was responsible for the forced labour of the camp inmates, and was also the supervisor for the medical practices in the camps, ranging from human experimentation to the implementation of the "Final Solution", in particular the mass murder of inmates with Zyklon B gas. After Germany capitulated, Glücks committed suicide by swallowing a potassium cyanide capsule. Early life
<mask> was born 1889, in Odenkirchen (now part of Mönchengladbach) in the Rhineland. Having completed gymnasium in Düsseldorf, he worked in his father's business, a fire insurance agency. In 1909, Glücks joined the army for one year as a volunteer, serving in the artillery.In 1913, he was in England, and later moved to Argentina as a trader. When World War I broke out, <mask> returned to Germany under a false identity on a Norwegian ship in January 1915 and joined the army again. During the war, he eventually became the commander of an artillery unit and was awarded the Iron Cross I and II. Glücks fought at the Battle of Verdun and the Battle of the Somme. After the war, he became a liaison officer between the German forces and the Military Inter-Allied Commission of Control, the allied body for controlling the restrictions placed upon Germany in the Treaty of Versailles regarding re-armament and strength of their armed forces. Until 1924, he stayed in that position, before joining the staff of the 6th Prussian Division. He also served in the Freikorps.Rise under the Nazi regime

<mask> joined the NSDAP in 1930 and two years later, the SS. From 6 September 1933 to 20 June 1935 he was a member of the staff of the SS-Group "West" and rose to the rank of an SS-Sturmbannführer. While lacking in charisma, historian Nikolaus Wachsmann claims

 his authority extended to the largest and most infamous of them all, Auschwitz. From what historian Martin Broszat relates, nearly all the important matters concerning the concentration camps were "decided directly between the Inspector of Concentration Camps and the Reichsführer-SS." In January 1945, Glücks was decorated for his contributions to the Reich in managing the fifteen largest camps and the five-hundred satellite camps which employed upwards of 40,000 members of the SS. Glücks' role in the Holocaust "cannot be over-emphasized" as he, together with Pohl, oversaw the entire Nazi camp system and the persecution network it represented. Death
When the WVHA offices in Berlin were destroyed by Allied bombing on 16 April 1945, the WVHA was moved to Born on Darß in Pomerania on the Baltic sea. Owing to the advances of the Red Army forces, Glücks and his wife fled to Flensburg.After the capitulation of Germany, he is believed to have committed suicide on 10 May 1945 by swallowing a capsule of potassium cyanide at the Mürwik naval base in Flensburg-Mürwik, although the lack of official records or photos gave rise to speculation about his ultimate fate. Fictional references
Glücks appears as a character in the 1972 Frederick Forsyth novel The Odessa File along with its 1974 film adaptation. In the novel, which is set in 1963, he is depicted as still being alive and the head of ODESSA, which is determined to destroy the State of Israel nearly two decades after the end of World War II.

<mask> (November 11, 1882 – October 31, 1949) was an Argentine Catholic priest. He was one of the main founders of Club San Lorenzo de Almagro and scout group Don Bosco's Argentinian Explorers. Early years
<mask> was born in Morón, Buenos Aires, Argentina, and his parents <mask> and his mother Margarita Scanavino were born in Turin, Italy. His sisters were Ángela and Blanca, and were also religious. On February 13, 1898, he was ordained to the priesthood by Joseph Vespignani. In 1900, <mask> took his first job as a Salesian of Don Bosco Agricultural School in Uribelarrea until October 1902. Then <mask> continued at the College Pius IX as a teacher and assistant in theology.In 1908 he was appointed as manager of the Oratorio San Antonio, in 4050 Mexico Street in the Almagro neighbourhood of Buenos Aires. Los Forzosos de Almagro (San Lorenzo)
During 1908, Massa met a group of boys from the neighbourhood named Los Forzosos del Almagro led by a young man named Federico Monti. This name defines virtue of force in the game of football. Facing the drawbacks of playing in the street, the priest offered to let them play in the Oratory of San Antonio. This event would be the preliminary stage of the founding of Club Atlético San Lorenzo de Almagro. Explorers of Don Bosco's Argentinians
On December 14, 1875, the first 10 Salesians came to Argentina. Since then, in every city settled, they created works and activities for youth.The Salesians in Argentina turned the whole society "donboscana way to the formation of youth", concretised through the Holidays oratories, which were characterised by joy, Christian upbringing instilled slowly through

The work of the Salesians continued to grow in the formation of Oratorios. Between 1908 and 1914, the bands, the brackets and Battalions Gymnasts, recorded brilliant pages. In all this, the need to beat form a stable body. It was then that Father Joseph Vespignani (at the upper point of the Salesians), which had received reports of current that attracted young people to leave the Church, and had even reached Argentinian scoutist version (planned by Robert Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell) wanted ahead of this emerging and influence. Excited about the idea of giving concrete form to something more stable, and recalling Blossio brackets created by Don Bosco at the beginning of his work, combined with the activities of existing brackets gymnasts, he called Father <mask>a. From that moment, the theoretical and organisational framework of Dom Bosco's Argentinian Scouts outlined.Besides participating in the creation, was the first Chaplain Battalion No. 1. On Sunday February 28, 1915, the announcement of a hike and camp who performed the Scouts of Argentina came to Argentinian priest <mask>. "Is it possible to join this noble institution with our charism?" Massa asked. He presented his draft form, with the children of this company, a Children Battalion, for walks and excursions, as had Don Bosco. On Sunday March 7, after Mass, the children invited were present to join the Children's Battalion.The name originally adopted Child

The President was received at the entrance of the school by the principal of the house, Father <mask>, who to greet said: "Today our house is proud to receive his visit, but we'd be more proud if the President of Argentina agreed to be escorted by our scouts, who today make his first official presentation. "Thus, for a few minutes the honor guard of the President's Office were not the traditional Regiment of Mounted Grenadiers, but was 40 by the first explorers who wore their new uniforms. Everything became a reality on August 14, 1915 (for this reason, the day designated as Explorer), the celebration of the centenary of the birth of Don Bosco.In founding the work, Father Jose said "Scouts will be a selection of festive Oratory, where the most prominent oratorians participate in the privileges and responsibilities inherent in Battalions" "We do not introduce anything new in the Salesians of Don Bosco; explorers of Don Bosco Oratory will just be like leaven among others. "And stressed: "You shall preserve lifelong autonomy and self-regulation."

<mask><mask> (June13, 1987 – February5, 2006) was an American neo-Nazi and murderer. <mask> attacked three patrons at a gay bar in New Bedford, Massachusetts on February2, 2006 before fleeing by vehicle to Charleston, West Virginia, where he picked up passenger Jennifer Rena Bailey and drove southwest. He was stopped for a traffic violation by Gassville, Arkansas police officer James W. Sell, whom Robida shot and killed before fleeing east. <mask> lost control of his vehicle in Norfork, Arkansas shortly after running over a spike strip laid by police. He then engaged in a firefight with police, during which he fatally shot Bailey and then shot himself in the head. <mask> died in a hospital in Springfield, Missouri at 03:38 CST on February5, 2006. Attack

About midnight on February2, 2006, <mask> entered Puzzles Lounge, a popular gay bar in New Bedford, Massachusetts,  south of Boston.The 18-year-old, dressed in black, proceeded to order a drink using a fake ID indicating he was 23. After downing his first drink, he asked the bartender if the lounge was a gay bar. The bartender confirmed it was. After a second drink <mask> then swung a hatchet at a patron's head, injuring him. Other patrons tackled him and relieved him of the weapon, whereupon <mask> produced a handgun and began shooting, wounding at least three more people. Police treated the incident as a hate crime, and <mask> was sought by police for three counts of attempted murder. <mask> fled the scene in a green 1999 Pontiac Grand Am to Charleston, West Virginia, where he was joined by Jennifer Rena Bailey and drove southwest.It has been reported that <mask> lived with Bailey in West Virginia in 2004.

 whether Bailey joined him willingly or if she was abducted. Manhunt and capture
Police immediately began a manhunt for <mask> and raided his mother's home in New Bedford. She told them she had last seen him at 1am bleeding from the head and that he had left soon after. They found weapons of all types, including hatchets, knives, handguns and a shotgun. In his bedroom they found "Nazi regalia" and anti-Semitic writings on the walls. Fearing he may have left Massachusetts, state police contacted the FBI, sparking a nationwide manhunt.Before long, flyers depicting <mask> were distributed all over Massachusetts. In the afternoon of February4, 2006, <mask>'s vehicle was seen about  away in Arkansas, where Jim Sell, a Gassville police officer, initiated a traffic stop at the Brass Door Restaurant parking lot. After talking with Sell for about half a minute, <mask> opened fire with a 9mm handgun, killing the officer. He turned onto Arkansas Highway 201 headed south and continued to Arkana, Arkansas, where he fired at Arkansas State Police Sgt. Van Nowlin. Police pursued him and laid spike strips; although these flattened his front tires, they failed to stop the car. <mask> fled for about 18miles down Arkansas Highway 5, where he turned south and drove into the small town of Norfork.In the middle of town he lost control of the car due to the front tires, spun out, and hit two parked vehicles. He then exchanged gunfire with police. During the gunfight, he shot Bailey in the head at point blank range with a Ruger 9mm semi-automatic pistol, killing her instantly. After Bailey's death, <mask> shot himself in the right side of the head. He was flown more than 100miles to Springfield,

 Missouri for medical treatment, where he died of his injuries the next day, on February5. Responses to the attack
At first the mayor of New Bedford, Scott Lang, attributed the attack in part to video games:

This was a hate crime... the actions of a single deranged individual act as a wake up call to our community and once again the nation... This cycle of violence must stop.The guns have to come off the streets. The violent video games have to be taken out of our homes. Believing the mayor was jumping to conclusions, gamers and members of GamePolitics wrote to Lang, citing that nobody had even mentioned video games as connection to the mass murders, nor had <mask> ever mentioned games on his MySpace weblog. In reply to Andrew Eisen, a member of GamePolitics.com who had written to the mayor over his comments, Lang wrote:

When you get a chance please explain to me the social benefits behind police and military video games for the future of our children.While I am not familiar with these videos I have seen enough to know they can provide no healthy education for our children. Lastly, there is no doubt in my mind that Mr. <mask> played these video games on a regular basis as he was completely obsessed with weapons, violence and destruction. See his my space website for more details. I sincerely appreciate your comments.However, examination of <mask>'s MySpace website (archived on GamePolitics ) showed a passion for Neo-Nazism and Insane Clown Posse, known for its violent and dark lyrics. One song in particular mentions attacking people with a hatchet, similar to <mask>'s crime. On February7, Insane Clown Posse released a statement on the <mask> attacks. The group's manager Alex

On February7, 2006, Jack Thompson, a disbarred attorney, commented on the incident, describing the bar attack as a "killing scenario" from Postal² and the killing of Sell a "suicide by cop homicide" inspired by Grand Theft Auto. Police later dismissed the "suicide by cop" theory when it was discovered that <mask> had fatally shot himself.Thompson claimed to have spoken to a New Bedford detective, who "repeatedly" said <mask>'s friends had said "he played the Grand Theft Auto games." No further details have emerged, but the following day the Bristol County District Attorney rejected the video game link after examining all the evidence collected from <mask>'s apartment and car. My look at the search warrant [for <mask>'s home] was that the investigators turned up no video games. From the information we have here, there is no proof video games were involved. See also

<mask> (1857 – June 23, 1899) was a stamp dealer and printer, best known for his stamp-printing contracts with several Latin American countries in the 1890s. Life in USA
<mask> emigrated from Germany to the United States at the age of 9. He soon established himself as a stamp dealer and cataloguer (as a sideline to owning a stationery and printing shop) in New York City, and published the Descriptive Price Catalogue of All Known Postage Stamps of the United States and Foreign Countries in 1876. In 1879, he began printing stamps for the Dominican Republic and the Colombian State of Bolivar. These stamps were printed under a standard sort of printing contract, where he received a fee for printing a specified number of stamps. However, with the Bolivar issues, he began the soon to be infamous practice of year-dating otherwise identical stamp designs. <mask> was successful enough to be able to sell his business in 1884 and purchase a significant interest in the Hamilton Bank Note Engraving and Printing Co., whose main contract was for printing tickets for the New York City transportation system.Hamilton Bank Note Engraving and Printing Co

<mask> sold his New York stamp business in 1884 and used the money to buy into the Hamilton Bank Note Engraving and Printing Co. In 1889, <mask> developed a novel plan for Hamilton to print stamps for foreign countries. He offered to supply the stamps for free, provided that:

The stamps would be dated and invalidated at the end of each year, to be replaced by a new series. Unsold (invalid) stamps would be returned to <mask> for sale to collectors. <mask> retained the right to reprint any invalid stamps as needed for sale to collectors. <mask> also apparently insisted on printing stamps with values not relevant to the postal rates of the countries using them. There are many long series of stamps where only

The contracts were for ten years worth of stamp issues, and also included official, telegraph, revenue stamps and postal stationery. German philatelic experts who studied the Seebeck issues early in the 20th century claim that Seebeck, instead of reprinting after the stamps were demonetized had excess quantities printed before the stamps were delivered. Since these stamps were printed during the time they were valid for postage they are still considered original postage stamps, whether they were ever delivered to the respective countries' postal authorities or not. Condemnation of Seebeck among the collecting community was nearly unanimous. Seebeck failed to realize that most stamp collectors want to collect the stamps that are actually usable and available for postage, and not special creations designed to separate them from their money. They objected strongly to Seebeck's unlimited reprinting rights, the needless yearly creation of new issues, and the issuance of postally-irrelevant stamp values.Stamps with face values up to $10 were issued for the 1892 Columbus anniversary. Although the U.S. and Canada received similar abuse for their 1892 and 1897 stamp series (which included values up to $5), <mask>'s efforts were seen as particularly blatant. Many collectors refused to collect these issues. Several of

The Hamilton Bank Note Company printed other stamps such as the 1902 issue of Dominican Republic and was still in existence in the 1940s when <mask>, <mask>' grandson was president. However, millions of stamp reprints (and the plates from which they were produced) reached the market.Most of the Hamilton issues, pejoratively known as "Seebecks", are common and cheap to this day, at least in unused condition. However, many of the original post-1895 issues are scarce, or rare, in unused condition while the reprints abound. In part, this is because it is difficult to tell the stamps shipped for postal sale from the numerous reprints. Postally-used stamps are generally much less common, though the collector of this area needs to beware of forged cancellations. References and sources

<mask> (17 July 1846 – 14 November 1898) was a Victorian showman noted for popularising moving pictures on British fairgrounds. The first known reference to a cinematograph exhibition in <mask>' show was at Rotherham Statute Fair on 2 November 1896. <mask> toured Britain for 25 years, first with a ghost illusion show, and then with a bioscope. He reached the height of his career in the summer of 1897 when he exhibited at the Victorian Era Exhibition in Earl's Court, London with a show designed specifically to pay tribute to Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. <mask> was also an outspoken advocate for the travelling show community and a founding member of the United Kingdom Van Dwellers’ Protection Association, the fairground trade organization which evolved into what is known today as the Showmen's Guild of Great Britain. Early life
<mask> was born in Liverpool on 17 July 1846 and spent his entire life "on the road." His father, Thomas, came from an extended family of showmen with roots in Warrington.The <mask> family began travelling with fairground shows in the mid 1840s and got their start in the business by making automaton figures and touring with waxworks and mechanical exhibitions. The mechanical exhibitions presented on Victorian fairgrounds consisted of a number of visual displays incorporating three-dimensional models with various moving parts. Each individual display was presented against an aptly painted scenic background. A typical exhibit portrayed some

 scene or event such as a colliery village or a battlefield re-enactment. <mask>'s father's show in 1870, for example, represented the loss of Her Majesty's ship "Captain" and depicted a storm and rescue at sea. The exhibition also included a model of a coal pit and had over one hundred mechanical figures. The <mask> family toured with shows until the early 1900s when they diversified into rides and other fairground attractions.Their various exhibits included waxworks and mechanical displays, photography and fine art exhibits, ghost shows, and cinematograph exhibitions. Ghost illusion show
<mask>' primary interest was the ghost illusion show he started in 1871. A ghost illusion show was a type of stage show that combined theatrical presentations with the optical technique known as Pepper's Ghost. Ghost illusions were popular in British theatres throughout the 1860s but did not appear in fairground shows until the early 1870s. The travelling show’s adaptation of Pepper’s Ghost was typically a short stage play, consisting of three acts and a comic song - all done in about twenty minutes. The final act usually ended with a ‘transformation scene' depicting the final passage from this life to the next, and during which, at least one ghostly entity made its appearance. The ‘ghost,’ a life-like, three dimensional and free moving apparition was the reflection of a living being (an actor) who was brightly lit up by limelight, and positioned off stage, out of sight of the

texts: audience’s view.Putting on the ‘ghost’ was a rather costly undertaking for travelling show proprietors. The essential requirements were a source of lighting (limelight), a large mirror, and a large sheet of plate glass upon which to reflect the images. The glass had to be erected so that it sat at a forty-five degree angle at the front of the stage and, it had to be housed in a box specially built for transport. The final component was a platform-type stage built high enough to accommodate the actors (the ghosts) who worked directly below and to the front of the stage, as well as the limelight worker, whose job it was to illuminate the actors whose images were reflected onto and through the glass. An enclosure or partition was erected around the front of the stage to prevent the audience from seeing all the activity that was going on below the surface. The programs for <mask>' show varied, but audiences were usually treated to at least one melodrama and a comical farce or two. His show at the New Year’s fair in Bolton, Lancashire in 1873 advertised a program of “a specially written adaptation of the late Chas.Dickens’s Christmas story of the Haunted Man;” “Gounod’s famous Opera of Faust and Marguerite;” “the tableaux illustrative of the heart-stirring poem of Little Jim, the Collier’s Child;” “the thrilling legend of Adrian, the Avenger;” “The Goblin’s Haunt, introducing the Gorgeous Transformation Scene;” “the Seraph or Living Head;” and other “Entertainment of

<mask>' show was part ghost illusion theatre, part variety show. The artists he employed included actors, song and dance teams, ballet dancers, mummers and comedians like the Great Little Titch and magicians like Leotard 'Boz' Bosco (James Frederick Greethead.) He also hired international acts such as The Brothers LaFayette (American tight rope walkers) and Professor Howard (an American illusionist). By the early 1880s, <mask>' show had many of the same trappings as a theatrical touring company. The show’s crew in Manchester at the time of the 1881 census consisted of a number of actors, actresses, comedians, musicians and comic singers, as well as a set decorator and a dramatic author. <mask>' phantasmagoria was popular with fair-going audiences. A reporter who attended the show at Glasgow Fair in July 1880 wrote that, "Not the least amusing show on the ground is <mask>' "Hobgoblinscope," in which ghosts, phantoms, and goblins appear and disappear, and sing and dance in such a way as to puzzle the auditors to distinguish between illusion, and bodily impersonation."The Victorian Era Exhibition 1897

<mask> reached the pinnacle of his success in 1897 when he was invited by showman-entrepreneur, Imre Kiralfy, to exhibit at the Victorian Era Exhibition in London. His show that year was designed specifically to pay homage to Queen Victoria’s sixty year reign and it included a number of short plays, films of the Queen’s Jubilee Procession (filmed 22

Ghost illusions were the mainstay of <mask>' show for a quarter of a century with the 'ghosts' making their final appearance at Nottingham Goose Fair in October 1897. The show travelled under various names over the years including The Great Hobgoblinscope (1872 - 1885); The Great Ghost Show (1881 - 1895); and <mask> Grand Electroscope and Mammoth Phantoscopical Exhibition (1896-1897). Cinematograph show

The first known reference to a cinematograph exhibition in his show was at Rotherham Statute Fair on 2 November 1896. It is likely, however, that he exhibited films two weeks earlier. <mask> referred to his first cinematograph as the "Electroscope" and, at Hull Fair in October that year, he had been advertising “The Electroscope and Living Pictures.”  The following month, he became the first showman to exhibit films at the World’s Fair, an indoor fair held each year over the Christmas holiday period at the Royal Agricultural Hall in London. <mask>'s next stop was the Valentine's Fair at King's Lynn, Norfolk in February 1897, where it was reported that "<mask>’ Cinematographe Pavilion did immense business." Haydon and Urry, Ltd.There is no record of the supplier of <mask>'s first cinematograph, but by early February 1897, he was using one supplied by Haydon and Urry, a London-based firm that produced cinematographs and films during the late 1890s. The company's involvement in the cinema trade was short-lived, but they are noted for supplying many of the first fairground exhibitors. <mask> was the first showman to use Haydon and Urry's cinematograph (The Eragraph) and his use of their machine

They had just moved their premises to 353 Upper Street, Islington, locating them directly across the street from the Royal Agricultural Hall where <mask> was exhibiting. In early February 1897, their new cinematograph was ready for market - just as <mask> had become in need of a new one. He had opened at the World’s Fair with a film exhibition, but the projector he was using (the Electroscope) had been condemned as a fire risk by London County officials.Outfitting <mask> was a major coup for Haydon and Urry and they applied for a patent for their cinematograph on 10 February 1897, just as the World’s Fair was coming to an  end and, just prior to <mask> opening at King’s Lynn at the start of the fairground season. The projector used by <mask> at Lynn would have been the firm’s earliest model and the same model he used throughout the summer at the Victorian Era Exhibition in Earl's Court, London. <mask> initially billed his cinematograph as The Electroscope, but after he upgraded to Haydon and Urry’s improved model in October, he began advertising it as The Biograph. <mask> was Haydon and Urry’s best known exhibitor, but their Eragraph projector was popular with other early film show proprietors including Harry Scard (of Wadbrook and Scard fame); Albert and George Biddall;  Alfred Reynold

<mask>' main draw in 1897 were films supplied by Haydon and Urry of Queen Victoria's Jubilee Procession on 22 June 1897. The company opened its own film production studio in April 1897  and the Jubilee films (a series of six films) were produced by James and Richard Monte, two brothers employed by the firm. The films were exhibited at the London Pavilion the same night they were filmed and are believed to have been the first footage of the Queen's procession to be seen by the public.A second copy of the films was dispatched by train to Liverpool where they were exhibited by the owners of Reynolds Waxworks and Variety Exhibition on Lime Street within 24 hours of the procession having taken place. Other films produced for Haydon & Urry by the Monte brothers included scenes of Henley Regatta, Lady Overboard, Turn out of Fire Brigade, The Bride's First Night, Twelve Months After, and the funeral procession of actor William Terriss. He organized several protests over the years against the railway companies over the rates they were charging travelling amusement caterers. He was

<mask> was born at Cullenswood, Tasmania (then Van Diemen's Land). His father, <mask> had moved from Ireland to Tasmania in 1827 along with his sisters and was married to Eliza Graves (née de Lapenotierre). He was granted 1200 acres (486 ha) which he named "Cullenswood" after his home in Ireland. <mask> was sent to study at Bath after which he continued studies in France and Germany, picking up several languages before joining the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. In 1862 he was commissioned into the Royal Artillery, serving first in Bath, England, and then in Melbourne for several years.From Melbourne his battery was transferred to Colombo, Ceylon, where he was stationed 1869–1877. He then took a staff appointment at Aberystwith, Cardiganshire, for five years. Subsequently, he moved back to Tasmania. He was involved in the defence of the River Derwent and setting up batteries to defend Hobart with new guns. With a recommendation from Sir Peter Scratchley he served for eleven years as Commandant of the Tasmanian Defence Forces, retiring as Lieutenant-Colonel from the Imperial service in 1883. He trained Tasmanian forces for the Second Boer War and organised in 1900, the reception for the Duke of Cornwall. He continued in service until 1904, when the forces were taken over by the Commonwealth.Legge had early shown great interest in the

 defences of the River Derwent, and for this and a recommendation by  he was offered the command of the forces in Tasmania. He took up his new command on 6 December 1883, retiring from the imperial service with the rank of lieutenant-colonel. In April–May Legge had completed the torpedo course on H.M.S. Vernon at Portsmouth, and with advice from Scratchley and General Hardinge Steward ordered the new breech-loading guns for the colony from the Elswick Works at Newcastle upon Tyne. During his command the forces were entirely reorganised and the batteries defending Hobart were completed and armed with several of the latest types of guns, but many of his other recommendations went unheeded. He was twice re-engaged before his appointment ended in June 1890 through government retrenchment. When Colonel A. T. Cox retired in 1898 the command was again offered to Legge.He trained Tasmanian contingents for the Boer war and was in charge of the reception of the Duke of Cornwall in 1900, and held his post until the forces were officially taken over by the Commonwealth in 1904. Scientific career
Colonel <mask> had a strong interest in ornithology. He spent his free time in Sri Lanka (then Ceylon) studying the birds of the region, a work started by Edgar Leopold Layard, which led to his authorship of History of the Birds of Ceylon, comprising two quarto-sized volumes, with coloured plates by Keulemans, published in three parts between 1878 and 1880 in London. The work consisted of over 1200 pages with 34 plates in colour; some woodcuts became the standard book on the subject due to their high quality. He was

As <mask> himself stated during a meeting of the Oktyabrsky District Court of St. Petersburg, the crime was committed on the basis of a personal conflict, because, according to him, Yeshchenko had “recently a terrible reaction to my children” and “she started to freak at their mention” and then they both “lost control” during a quarrel and then “she attacked me with a knife”. At the same time, according to the local media, the young woman was killed in her sleep by a shot in the head. Then three more shots followed, also in the head.

 Government until the 1970s. <mask> worked as a liaison to the Republican government. While in Taiwan <mask> trained and studied with many masters of Chinese martial arts (e.g., baguazhang, xingyiquan). Most importantly, he met Professor Cheng Man-ch'ing (Zheng Manqing), the  "master of five excellences" - calligraphy, poetry, painting, Chinese medicine, and taijiquan. Legend has it that <mask> had to keep knocking on  Cheng's door for at least six months before Cheng would accept him as his first non-Chinese student.While waiting to study with Cheng, <mask> studied with T.T. Liang. Cheng and his students would meet every Sunday in Taiwan for taijiquan and tuishou ("push hands"—which <mask> often preferred to translate as "sensing hands"). Cheng moved to the United States in the mid-1960s and lived and taught in New York City for a number of years before returning to Taiwan in the mid-1970s. <mask> and Cheng kept in close contact until Cheng's death in 1975. America
<mask> returned to Bethesda in 1962 and initially taught judo at the local YMCA, but later concentrated on taijiquan, baguazhang, and xingyiquan. Starting in 1962, <mask> taught a popular free early Saturday morning taijiquan class at the YMCA.This continued for 26 years. During those years he worked, raised a family, taught, and wrote about martial arts. <mask> retired from teaching in 1988 and he and his wife Alice moved to the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. Over the years <mask> befriended many boxers

 and martial artists and sought many teachers. He was driven by a friendly curiosity that evolved over time into an expertise on Asian martial arts. He was one of the first western writers to introduce Asian martial arts to the West. <mask>'s writings

Beginning in the 1950s, <mask> wrote articles for such martial arts magazines as Budokwai Quarterly Bulletin, Judo, Strength and Health, Black Belt, and the Journal of Asian Martial Arts, and served on the editorial board for Taijiquan Journal.<mask>'s articles whetted the appetite of the American martial arts community, which paved the way for Asian masters to then develop followings in the US. Always written with a flair, <mask>'s numerous books and articles offer martial techniques, history, anecdotes, opinions, humor, and quotes from his wide-ranging personal training, research, and reading. <mask> collaborated with his teacher Cheng Man-ch'ing on one of the earliest English taijiquan books (T'ai Chi, Tuttle, 1967), and with Benjamin Lo on a translation of one of the earliest taijiquan books: <mask>'s 1929 book T'ai chi ch'uan ta wen—Questions and Answers on T'ai Chi Ch'uan (North Atlantic, 1985). <mask>'s memoir, "Martial Musings" (1999) was written much as he taught taijiquan, i.e., with a thousand anecdotal stories and a sharp sense of humor. He wrote, co-wrote, edited, co-edited and co-translated fourteen books on the martial arts and over twenty articles with a particular focus on China. He also wrote three

 books under the nom de plume of John F. Gilbey. "Gilbey's" first book, Secret Fighting Arts of the World, was a work of fiction parodying various martial arts tall tales, but was widely assumed to be non-fiction when it was first released.The second Gilbey book, The Way of a Warrior, was effectively a sequel to Secret Fighting Arts and the third, Western Boxing and World Wrestling, was a largely non-fictional compilation of boxing and wrestling anecdotes. <mask> edited the first book in English on Shaolin Temple boxing. In addition, he wrote the first books in English on baguazhang and xingyiquan, as well as the above-mentioned T'ai Chi. <mask> thus, was a key figure in introducing Western readers to these three "internal" martial arts of China. <mask> was also a frequent contributor of book reviews and opinion letters to Washington-D.C.-area newspapers

“This is the Marine Corps school of Tai Chi.” Said jokingly while students were holding tough postures. “You may hate me now, but you’ll thank me later.” Implying that our workouts in class would lead to better relaxation and sleep later. “It takes at least two years of practicing Tai Chi to realize you know nothing.” I suggest an additional zero - make it twenty years instead!“Professor said, there are three

Early life and career

<mask> was born on February 1, 1937, in New Orleans, Louisiana and grew up in the poverty-stricken Gert Town neighborhood.A church-choir singer from his youth, he trained at the Juilliard School of Music and graduated from Dillard University in 1958.

 a Mozart aria "Dalla Sua Pace", Don Ottavio's aria from Don Giovanni when guest-host Walter Matthau designated him as a "musical guest...in place of the usual crap", and once a Schubert lied while the titles on the screen expressed his colleagues' purported displeasure at having to accommodate a misguided request by him. In February 1977, he sang Tchaikovsky's Nur wer die Sehnsucht kennt barefoot in colorful Caribbean dress while subtitles explained he had just returned from Jamaica where he had picked up a girl by claiming to be Harry Belafonte. One of <mask>'s best known characters on SNL was the Dominican baseball player Chico Escuela. Chico spoke only limited and halting English, so the joke centered on his responding to almost any question with his catch phrase: "Baseball... been berra berra good... to me". Another recurring bit, used in the newscast segment Weekend Update, involved <mask> being presented as "President of the New York School for the hard of hearing" and assisting the newscaster by shouting the main headlines, in a parody of the then-common practice of providing sign language interpretation in an inset on the screen as an aid to the deaf viewer.According to the book Saturday Night: A Backstage History of Saturday Night Live, <mask> was frequently unhappy during his tenure on SNL from 1975 to 1980, and expressed the opinion that he was usually typecast in stereotypical roles. Black performers who have followed <mask> on SNL have at times been publicly concerned with experiencing the same fate <mask> did. Eddie Murphy, for example, told TV Guide in the early 1980s that SNL producer Jean Doumanian "had tried to Garrett <mask> me". Recurring characters

<mask> (November 9, 1892 – January 24, 1960) was an American actor. He appeared in more than 200 films between 1924 and 1958. Biography
Born in 1892, <mask> was the tall, smooth-talking villain in Hollywood films for almost four decades, beginning in 1923. <mask> made his first sound film in 1927 in the promotional trailer for The Jazz Singer, inviting audiences to see the upcoming landmark film. In later years he played imposing, authoritative parts such as high-ranking executives and military officers. He is best remembered as General Custer in Cecil B. DeMille's film The Plainsman. DeMille also cast him in two notable supporting roles in two of his biblical epics: the Danite elder Lesh Lakish in Samson and Delilah (1949), and the blind Israelite grandfather in The Exodus in The Ten Commandments (1956).<mask> died from cancer in Hollywood in 1960, aged 67. He was married to Victoire Lowe and adopted her two sons from her first marriage to actor Creighton Hale. (1927) as Victor Smith
