THA' LOWKS A PROPER SWELL LASS
Tha lowks a proper swell Lass, Tha lowks a proper swell
Thee diamond rings and furs and things become thee very well
But I remembers time lass in 1963, Tha lived at bottem house in t' row
and did na let thee parents know, tha went four walks wi me
Well tha's done rate for tha sen lass, Ah tha did n do so bad
In catchin on wi Billy John, owd Sammy Ratcliffe's lad
But I remembers time lass as plain as abc, tha'd steel thee sen away from t' house
as quiet as a wee brown mouse to goo for walks wi me
Well tha cocks thee nose in th air lass, Tha cocks thee nose in th air
And I hear th'is plans as thy old man ull be next Borough mayor
But I remembers time lass afore tha droove wi glee, in mayor's car in fancy cloths,
how tha used to don thee shoes, when walkin out wi me
Well I woodna weer tha shoes lass, No I woodna weer tha shoes
tha dines in state off silver plate at Corporation does
But I remembers time lass, I thout it wor a spree. in somed'ys dark door 'all ter stand
and from a paper in me hand, eat fish and chips wi me
Well ar wish thee all good luck lass, ar wish thee all good luck
Tha's been a wife to John for life, and tha's never come unstuck
But best not tell owd chap lass, nor yet tha family
If tha't a wife wi'out a flaw
thou larnt a lot a lass should knoo when walking out wi me
Summon up the Sun - evoking the arrival of the Green Man in Spring
Summon up the Sun was written by Mike O'Connor, the Cornish Bard, and adapted by Keith Kendrick -- a Cornish / Derbyshire hybrid -- a bit like me! The imagery of the changes through winter into Spring is marvelous and the tune and refrains great for harmonious singing (pity there is no audience to help here). There may be no Green Man or God of Winter but this song is enough to make one imagine there might have been. Sung by Alan Rosevear in Exeter, Devon.

How can we level the playing field of life? | Lee Elliot Major | TEDxExeter
Social mobility is getting worse, leading to extremes of inequality and a disconnected, dysfunctional elite. So what can we do to create a more level playing field? Lee Elliot Major explores how middle-class privilege is increasingly ingrained by our education system, arguing that radical reforms are needed to tackle a massive waste of talent.

At TEDxExeter 2019 our theme was The Art of the Possible. We’re living in an age of polarity where many communities are feeling more and more divided, against a backdrop of increasingly populist politics which risk dividing us even further. Our talks offer an opportunity to pause and consider the future we want to create, the possibilities that may be obscured in the busyness of our everyday lives, and how we might get there.

Derby
Derby (/ˈdɑrbi/ DAR-bi) is a city and unitary authority area in the East Midlands region of England. It lies upon the banks of the River Derwent and is located in the south of the ceremonial county of Derbyshire, of which it was traditionally the county town. In the 2011 census, the city had a population of 248,700.
As home to Lombe's Mill, the first factory in the world, Derby is considered a birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. With the arrival of the railways in the 19th century, and due to its strategic central location, the city grew to become a foremost centre of the British rail industry.

Webley Tempest Pellet Pistol Table Top & Shooting Review
- Webley Tempest Pellet Pistol Table Top & Shooting Review.
-Webley Tempest Spring Air Pistol
-.177 or .22 caliber
-Single shot
-Spring Piston
-400-500 fps
-Available from:
ReplicaAirguns.com
This video is a Tabletop review of the Webley Tempest .22 caliber pellet pistol. I take you through the operations and features of this very compact, accurate, yet powerful air pistol. I also chronograph my .22 caliber version to show you that it really gets 400 fps out of an 11.9 grain pellet while still grouping within 1.5 inches form 30 feet away.
Some people may qualify the fact that this new version is now made in Turkey but with that said I have been selling the Turkish made Webley Alecto for some time now and it has been one of my most trouble free airguns in the web-store. The Tempest looks to me to be just as well made and a nice perk with the Turkish made Tempest is its jump in velocity with the .22 actually hitting 400 fps and the .177 getting right around 500 fps, not bad at all for a fairly short barreled pistol.
I also really like the small size this airgun has, it's no larger or heavier than say a Beretta 92 yet somehow it has to cram all the mechanics for the spring piston design into it and still get good performance. The only real reason I would not recommend this gun to some people is if you are of slight build or perhaps have some hand or wrist problems because it does take some effort to cock this gun, if this is a factor for you, you may want to go with the .177 caliber version as it does have a lighter cocking effort.

Inside the mind of a former radical jihadist | Manwar Ali
For a long time, I lived for death, says Manwar Ali, a former radical jihadist who participated in violent, armed campaigns in the Middle East and Asia in the 1980s. In this moving talk, he reflects on his experience with radicalization and makes a powerful, direct appeal to anyone drawn to Islamist groups that claim violence and brutality are noble and virtuous: let go of anger and hatred, he says, and instead cultivate your heart to see goodness, beauty and truth in others.

In 1970s South Boston, FBI Agent John Connolly (Joel Edgerton) persuades Irish mobster James “Whitey” Bulger (Johnny Depp) to collaborate with the FBI and eliminate a common enemy: the Italian mob. The drama tells the true story of this unholy alliance, which spiraled out of control, allowing Whitey to evade law enforcement, consolidate power, and become one of the most ruthless and powerful gangsters in Boston history.
Senators, Governors, Businessmen, Socialist Philosopher (1950s Interviews)
Interviewees:
Joseph McCarthy, American politician who served as a Republican U.S. Senator from the state of Wisconsin from 1947 until his death in 1957
Corliss Lamont, a socialist philosopher, and advocate of various left-wing and civil liberties causes. As a part of his political activities he was the Chairman of National Council of American-Soviet Friendship starting from early 1940s. He was the great-uncle of 2006 Democratic Party nominee for the United States Senate from Connecticut, Ned Lamont.
Fuller Warren, 30th Governor of Florida
T. Lamar Caudle, Assistant Attorney General
Owen Brewster, American politician from Maine. Brewster, a Republican, was solidly conservative. Brewster was a close confidant of Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin and an antagonist of Howard Hughes.
Robert S. Kerr, American businessman from Oklahoma. Kerr formed a petroleum company before turning to politics. He served as the 12th Governor of Oklahoma and was elected three times to the United States Senate. Kerr worked natural resources, and his legacy includes water projects that link the Arkansas River via the Gulf of Mexico.
Lamont was born in Englewood, New Jersey. His father, Thomas W. Lamont, was a Partner and later Chairman at J.P. Morgan & Co.. Lamont graduated as valedictorian of Phillips Exeter Academy in 1920, and magna cum laude from Harvard University in 1924. In 1924 he did graduate work at New College University of Oxford while he resided with Julian Huxley. The next year Lamont matriculated at Columbia University, where he studied under John Dewey. In 1928 he became a philosophy instructor at Columbia and married Margaret Hayes Irish. He received his Ph.D. in philosophy in 1932 from Columbia University.[2] Lamont taught at Columbia, Cornell, Harvard, and the New School for Social Research . In 1962 he married Helen Elizabeth Boyden.[3]
Lamont served as a director of the American Civil Liberties Union from 1932--1954, and chairman until his death, of the National Emergency Civil Liberties Committee, which successfully challenged Senator Joseph McCarthy's senate subcommittee and other government agencies. In the process Lamont was cited for contempt of Congress, but in 1956 an appeals court overturned his indictment. From 1951 until 1958, he was denied a passport by the State Department.
In 1965 he secured a Supreme Court ruling against censorship of incoming mail by the U.S. Postmaster General. In 1973 he discovered through Freedom of Information Act requests that the FBI had been tapping his phone, and scrutinizing his tax returns and cancelled checks for 30 years. His subsequent successful lawsuit set a precedent in upholding citizens' privacy rights. He also filed and won a suit against the Central Intelligence Agency for opening his mail.
Following the deaths of his parents, Lamont became a philanthropist. He funded the collection and preservation of manuscripts of American philosophers, particularly George Santayana. He became a substantial donor to both Harvard and Columbia, endowing the latter's Corliss Lamont Professor of Civil Liberties, currently held by Vincent A. Blasi. During the 1960s he and Margaret had divorced, and he married author Helen Boyden, who died of cancer in 1975. Lamont married Beth Keehner in 1986.
Lamont was president emeritus of the American Humanist Association, and in 1977 was named Humanist of the Year. In 1981, he received the Gandhi Peace Award. In 1998 Lamont received a posthumous Distinguished Humanist Service Award from the International Humanist and Ethical Union.
Still an activist at the age of 88, he protested U.S. involvement in the Persian Gulf War in 1991. He died at home in Ossining, New York.
