Roosevelt's family, along with his first wife, Alice Lee, was buried Brooklyn's Greenwood Cemetery. With Greenwood so distant and Alice a one time rival for Theodore's affection, Edith likely made the decision that they would be buried at the Youngs family graveyard.Just off the road to Oyster Bay village, the hillside burial ground afforded a view of bay that both had known since they were teenagers in the 1870's when their families rented summer homes just down the road.

    Plans for Day of Magic Announced at February Ring Meeting Posted on February 27, 2018 by Dennis Phillips Ring Report Ring #170 “The Bev Bergeron Ring” SAM Assembly #99 February 2018 Meeting Incoming Ring President Mike Matson brought the meeting to order. He brought up the discussion from the board meeting before the meeting and asked for approval of the board’s decisions. Our Day of Magic will be this May, with the date to be determined. It will include lectures and a flea market. It was good to see some working full-time professionals back with us for a visit: Nathan Coe Marsh and Scott Pepper, who is now based in San Antonio, Texas. Guest Brandon Jackson from Goldsboro, North Carolina and Greg Solomon’s son, Eric. Bev Bergeron’s Teach-In recalled the problems with carrying a “Color Changing Pocket Knife” on an airliner and the correct way to do The Gypsy Thread effect. Bev said the original is the best, using wool yarn. Phil Schwartz presented Magic History Moment #90, the strange history of The Swastika Magic Company. He began by presenting an ABC Block routine with Chinese blocks. The red block vanished between two other colored blocks in a stack and reappeared in a box. Phil mentioned that the original characters on the blocks were swastikas. In the last 7 decades of the 20th Century the Swastika Symbol became stigmatized from its use as an icon of the German Nazi Party. It had been a 5,000 year old sacred symbol in many religions and in the Western world a symbol of good luck.

    ESTABLISHING THE AMERICAN WAY OF DEATH: WORLD WAR I AND THE FOUNDATION OF THE UNITED STATES’ POLICY TOWARD THE REPATRIATION AND BURIAL OF ITS BATTLEFIELD DEAD Kyle J. Hatzinger, B.S. Thesis Prepared for Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2015 APPROVED: Geoffrey D.W. Wawro, Major Professor Michael V. Leggiere, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History Costas Tsatsoulis, Interim Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Hatzinger, Kyle J. Establishing the American Way of Death: World War I and the Foundation of the United States' Policy Toward the Repatriation and Burial of Its Battlefield Dead. Master of Arts (History), August 2015, 158 pp., bibliography, 63 titles. This thesis examines the policies and procedures created during and after the First World War that provided the foundation for how the United States commemorated its war dead for the next century. Many of the techniques used in modern times date back to the Great War. However, one hundred years earlier, America possessed very few methods or even ideas about how to locate, identify, repatriate, and honor its military personnel that died during foreign conflicts. These ideas were not conceived in the halls of government buildings. On the contrary, concerned citizens originated many of the concepts later codified by the American government. This paper draws extensively upon archival documents, newspapers, and published primary sources to trace the history of America’s burial and repatriation policies, the Army Graves Registration Services, and how American dead came to permanently rest in military cemeteries on the continent of Europe.

  • VICE Studios and Screen Australia Present in Association with Film Victoria and Create NSW a Blue-Tongue Films and Pariah Production
    VICE Studios and Screen Australia present In association with Film Victoria and Create NSW A Blue-Tongue Films and Pariah Production Written and Directed by Mirrah Foulkes Starring Mia Wasikowska and Damon Herriman Produced by Michele Bennett, Nash Edgerton and Danny Gabai Run Time: 105 Minutes Press Contact Samuel Goldwyn Films [email protected] SYNOPSES Short Synopsis In the anarchic town of Seaside, nowhere near the sea, puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show. The show is a hit due to Judy's superior puppeteering, but Punch's driving ambition and penchant for whisky lead to an inevitable tragedy that Judy must avenge. Long Synopsis In the anarchic town of Seaside, nowhere near the sea, puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show. The show is a hit due to Judy's superior puppeteering, but Punch's driving ambition and penchant for whisky lead to an inevitable tragedy that Judy must avenge. In a visceral and dynamic live-action reinterpretation of the famous 16th century puppet show, writer director MIRRAH FOULKES turns the traditional story of Punch and Judy on its head and brings to life a fierce, darkly comic and epic female-driven revenge story, starring MIA WASIKOWSKA and DAMON HERRIMAN. 2 DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT JUDY AND PUNCH is a dark, absurd fable treading a line between fairy-tale, fantasy and gritty realism, all of which work together to establish a unique tone while upsetting viewer expectations. When Vice Studios’ Eddy Moretti and Danny Gabai approached me with the idea of making a live action, feminist revenge film about Punch and Judy, they encouraged me to let my imagination go wild and take the story wherever I felt it needed to go.
