  • “Requiem Aeternam Dona Eis Domine”
    “REQUIEM AETERNAM DONA EIS DOMINE” OBITUARIES 2020 Stefan Oliver (57) Stefan died 5th July Not many people can look down from above and see his County Council hold a minute‟s silence in his memory while the flag outside flies at half -mast. The Leader of West Suffolk Council, said: “Stefan was a remarkable man of many talents who contributed so much to the civic life of Bury St Edmunds and West Suffolk. “I know I speak for everyone at the council who knew Stefan in saying that he will be much missed but very fondly remembered by us all, and so many others, and our thoughts are of course with his family.” Olly, as his school friends knew him, was already a somewhat larger than life person in many ways. From his arrival at St John‟s he entertained us with vivid stories of country pursuits in Suffolk ranging from farming to fishing to duck hunting on the marshes of East Anglia. He had developed an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of trees, birds and other wildlife which he pursued at school in the woods and in Windsor Great Park. He was an active Scout. The Beaumont Review of February 1955 gives a graphic account of the previous summers scout camp where in two weeks it rained every day except three. The anonymous writer, probably the great Father Ezechiel, said “that the aspect of the camp that will live longest in his memory was the atmosphere of cheerfulness, not to say hilarity. Contributory causes were doubtless the simian rumbles produced by the Squirrels‟ Patrol Leader and the welkin ringing bellows emitted by his rival of the Owls.” The simian rumbles were Olly acting like a gorilla, thumping his chest accompanied by a jungle howl that could be heard miles away, to be answered by a deafening version of „Oh Lucky Jim.‟ It was a great fun camp despite, or perhaps because of, the dreadful weather.

  • JUNE 2019 the Electric Hotel Dominic Smith
    AUSTRALIA JUNE 2019 The Electric Hotel Dominic Smith From the award-winning author of the acclaimed bestseller The Last Painting of Sara de Vos comes a luminous new novel tracing the intertwined fates of a silent film director and his muse. Description Los Angeles, 1962: Silent filmmaker Claude Ballard's daily routine is interrupted by an aspiring film student, whose inquiries about Claude's famous lost film, The Electric Hotel sparks memories of a near-forgotten era. Paris, 1895: Twenty-year-old Claude Ballard interviews for a job as a 'concession agent' for the Lumiere Brothers. With a CV, such that it is, that contains film of his sister's dying breaths, it's clear how much Claude will put at stake to realise his dreams... When Claude meets the legendary actress, Sabine Montrose, during the last hours of her fortieth birthday in her Manhattan hotel room, inspiration strikes and his fate is sealed. For nearly half a century, Claude Ballard has been living at the Hollywood Knickerbocker Hotel. A French pioneer of silent films, who started out as a concession agent for the Lumiere brothers, the inventors of cinema, Claude now spends his days foraging mushrooms in the hills of Los Angeles and taking photographs of runaways and the striplings along Sunset Boulevard. But when a film-history student comes to interview Claude about The Electric Hotel - the lost masterpiece that bankrupted him and ended the career of his muse, Sabine Montrose - the past comes surging back. In his run-down hotel suite, the ravages of the past are waiting to be excavated: celluloid fragments and reels in desperate need of restoration, and Claude's memories of the woman who inspired and beguiled him.

  • Freemasonry, a Secret Society
    Freemasonry, a Secret Society Freemasonry is a world-wide secret society, whose members look after each other, making themselves know to each other with childish handshakes. At their secret meetings they take stupid oaths, all uttered by fully grown, supposedly intelligent men. Freemason’s can be Politicians, Royalty, Police Officers, company chairmen, bank managers, all men in responsible positions, also electricians, plumbers and bricklayers, and also include paedophiles, murderers all behaving like retarded children in Disneyland. These are just two well-known Freemasons: Adolph Hitler Andre Brevik (Murderer of millions of Jews and others) (Norwegian mass murders) 1 | P a g e Here are just a few of these childish oaths taken; "having my throat cut across, my tongue torn out by its roots, and my body buried in the rough sands of the sea at low water mark, "having my left breast torn open, my heart plucked out, and given to the wild beasts of the field and the fowls of the air." "to have my body cut in two, my bowels removed and burned to ashes which are then to be scattered to the four winds of heaven." Yes! All uttered in real seriousness by supposedly intelligent men! – Totally unbelievable! Freemasonry, following pages shows the childish handshakes and the nonsense oaths undertaken by supposedly intelligent men? Also of course they have to wear regalia, here it is; Grown, intelligent men wearing stupid aprons! Is it any wonder the worlds in a mess? Following are the equally stupid handshakes given and oaths undertaken taken by Masons! 2 | P a g e Secret Masonic Handshakes, Passwords, Grips and Signs Masonry ENTERED APPRENTICE DEGREE (First Degree in the Blue Lodge) DUEGARD OF AN ENTERED APPRENTICE The Duegard of an Entered Apprentice represents the position of the hand when taking the oath of an Entered Apprentice, "my left hand supporting the Bible and my right hand resting thereon." SIGN OF AN ENTERED APPRENTICE The sign of the Entered Apprentice alludes to the penalty of the Entered Apprentice's obligation.
