Actually, he uses real magic. His guru was a man named Nix Daniel Von Bargen. Nix ruled a desert commune with sadism and mind games, and in a prologue we see Swann Kevin J. O'Connor and other former disciples arriving at the compound to The Lord of Illusion an end to his reign of terror. After Nix massages Swann's skull from the inside his fingers penetrate the bonehe is shot by a young girl named Dorothea Famke Janssen. This slows him down enough for the others to screw an iron mask over his face and, thus incapacitated, he can be buried - forever, they hope. The usual. One of the best scenes in The Lord of Illusion movie involves a new illusion that Swann unveils before the black tie audience; he's shackled to a revolving wheel beneath another wheel from which many swords hang suspended, each one over a vital part of his anatomy. The trick is to release each limb just before the sword lands in it. The trick does not work, The Lord of Illusion Swann dies a grisly death, one extremity or vital organ at a time.

    Marc B. Shapiro – Clarifications of Previous Posts Clarifications of Previous Posts by Marc B. Shapiro [The footnote numbers reflects the fact this is a continuation of this earlier post.] 1. I was asked to expand a bit on how I know that R. Barukh Epstein’s story with Rayna Batya is contrived. In this story we see her great love of Torah study and her difficulty in accepting a woman’s role in Judaism. Certainly, she must have been a very special woman, and I assume that she was, for a woman, quite learned. When Mekor Barukh was published there were still plenty of people alive who had known her and it would have been impossible to entirely fabricate her personality. The same can be said about Epstein’s report of the Netziv reading newspapers on Shabbat. This is not the sort of thing that could be made up. Let’s not forget that the Netziv’s widow, son (R. Meir Bar-Ilan) and many other family members and close students were alive, and Epstein knew that they would not have permitted any improper portrayal. It is when recording private conversations that one must always be wary of what Epstein reports. A good deal has been written about the Rayna Batya story, and Dr. Don Seeman has referred to it as “the only record which has been preserved of a woman’s daily interactions with her male interlocutor over several months.”[15] When challenged about the historical accuracy of Epstein’s recollections, Seeman replied “that there is no evidence to indicate that R.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission September 16, 2008, Designation List 405 LP-2263 PUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK BUILDING (later Public National Bank & Trust Company of New York Building), 106 Avenue C (aka 231 East 7th Street), Manhattan. Built 1923; Eugene Schoen, architect; New York Architectural Terra Cotta Co., terra cotta. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 377, Lot 72. On October 30, 2007, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Public National Bank of New York Building (later Public National Bank & Trust Company of New York Building) and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 7). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Five people spoke in favor of designation, including Councilmember Rosie Mendez and representatives of the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, Historic Districts Council, Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in America, and New York Landmarks Conservancy. The building’s owner opposed designation. In addition, the Commission received a number of communications in support of designation, including letters from City Councilmember Tony Avella, the Friends of Terra Cotta, Neue Galerie Museum for German and Austrian Art, and City Lore: The New York Center for Urban Folk Culture. Summary The Public National Bank of New York Building in the East Village is a highly unusual American structure displaying the direct influence of the early-twentieth- century modernism of eminent Viennese architect/designer Josef Hoffmann. Built in 1923, the bank was designed by Eugene Schoen (1880-1957), an architect born in New York City of Hungarian Jewish descent, who graduated from Columbia University in 1902, and soon after traveled to Europe, meeting Otto Wagner and Hoffmann in Vienna.

    Eighteenth Session, Commencing at 2.30 pm ORDERS, DECORATIONS & MEDALS CHRISTOPHER STOYLES COLLECTION Christopher Stoyles was born in Sydney in 1933 into a military family which moved to Melbourne when he was 4 years old. He lived in Kew and was educated at Scotch College. His interest in history started when visitors to the house would bring a souvenir for the boys which Chris found fascinating. This interest stayed with him for the rest of his life and started him on a lifetime of collecting militaria. His Mother was a keen collector of Crown Derby China and Chris would always peer into the local antique shop and rush back to her if there was anything of interest. This is where he bought his fi rst Pickelhaube at about the age of 10. Antique shops had always fascinated him and he would fi nd 4679* something hidden under a table in the back corner.

Chris spent 20 years in the Australian $100 Army Reserve and this only strengthened his interest in militaria.
