To co-operate with all national and regional Camellia Societies and with other Horticultural Societies. 4. To disseminate information concerning Camellias by means of bulletins and other publications. 5.

On the other hand, the almost complete absence of information on the condition and activities of the Society has caused the enthusiasm of members to evaporate. There have been too few helpers, and an intolerable burden rested on the shoulders of one individual, Mr Charles Puddle. Things have been best in Britain, where garden tours in the name of the Society have been a pronounced success, and have helped to build a strong local membership. For United Kingdom and European members, many doors have been opened, and a great deal of instruction and pleasure provided. But for overseas members unable to travel, this has been of little benefit, and has done little to promote the vital international aspect of the Society. As members are so widely diffused around the world, the Journal is the most important, indeed the vital link, between members of the Society. In eleven years the Society has issued but five Journals. Herein lies its great weakness. , In return for their annual subscription, members are entitled to receive a publication annually and regularly. Only once, in 1964, were names and addresses of members listed, enabling those in all parts of the world to communicate with one another. At no time has any Constitution been published, and members have not ev~n known that a Constitution existed. Furthermore, no elections have ever been h9ld, although an election was clearly intended as far back as 1962. The Directors are the governors of the Society, and the Directors jointly and severally are responsible. I call on the incoming Directors to join with me in setting thi~gs to rights at the earliest possible moment, and to help me inject new life into the Society. 4 This 1974 Journal is being published in Australia, and I have appointed Eric Craig, who lives not far from me, as Acting Editor. The Journal contains the names and addresses of members from 34 countries. It publishes for the first time the Constitution prepared by Mr Albert Fendig twelve years ago. It includes a detachable ballot paper to enable members to vote for the fifteen Directors they wish to represent them in conjunction with the Directors appointed as regional Directors. It publishes an account of the meeting of the Society held in Sydney in 1973, at which it was proposed and unanimously decided that an International Camellia Society be founded. Now that the Constitution is published, amendments may be made to it if desired, providing due notice is given. As Mr Puddle has resigned as Secretary, I have appointed Mr Roger Gray of North Epping, N.S.W., as Acting Secretary to assist me until a Secretary is appointed by the new Board. In the meantime, please address communications to him, or to me. I appoint Mr John Gallagher of Dorset, England, as Acting Treasurer, and authorise him to open an Account in the name of the Society in England, and to receive from Mr Charles Puddle the credit balance belonging to the Society. I appoint the six regional Membership Representatives listed on the back cover of the Journal to receive and acknowledge annual subscriptions. All these appointments I have made as a matter of emergency, and will be subject to ratification by the new Board of Directors. After the election results have been made known, I hereby give notice that at the first Meeting of the Directors, I will move that Mr Charles Puddle be appointed an Honorary Life Member of the International Society, in recognition of his great services to the Society from its inception to the present day. E.G. Waterhouse President 5 DOES NEW ZEALAND HAVE THE LARGEST ~CAPTAI NHAWES'? LES JURY New Plymouth, N.Z. I recently photographed what may be the largest plant of 'Captain Rawes' in the world, as an outdoor-grown specimen. It is growing in the garden of Mr and Mrs H. Honnor of Huirangi, a farming district nine miles from New Plymouth and about six miles from the coast. When I arrived, Mr and Mrs Honnor were working in their garden. One is 80, the other very near. Unfortunately, the tree had nearly finished flowering. It is 23-feet high and 25-feet across. The plant was purchased 43 years ago from Mr Fred Parker, and has never been fertilised. Mr Parker had what appeared to be two distinct forms, one a much stronger grower than the other. There are some large 'Captain Rawes' reported in the Wanganui area, 100 miles from New Plymouth, so I photographed Mr Honnor's tree partly for comparison purposes. Some years ago, Mr Honnor took two cuttings of 'Captain Rawes' and one of 'Lady Clare', and planted them in the side of a drain through a peat-swamp. All three cuttings grew, and it may be noteworthy that they were planted in a horizontal position. I mention this because I once planted some flowering cherry cuttings, some upright and some horizontal, and only the latter grew. Another camellia that has aroused interest in New Zealand lately is 'Kuro-tsubaki', the black camellia of Japan. An illustration was published in the A.C.S. Yearbook 1966 with an article by Mr Ishikawa, and this looks exactly the same as a plant I bought over 20 years ago from Harrison's Nurseries. My blooms have 14-15 petals, but on a recent garden tour I found a form with much narrower petals, 20 in number, with longer and narrower leaves. I took a bloom to compare with Fred Parker's, which was similar in leaf, with 18 broader petals, although not as broad as those on my plant. Yet all were said to be 'Kuro-tsubaki'! One wonders how the different forms originated! After visiting camellia gardens in England, America, Japan and Australia, one sees a great variety of climatic and soil conditions. The camellia is indeed amazingly adaptable, though many do better in one area than another. Mr Wada ofJapan told me some years ago that 'Donation' was a failure in Japan, but in a recent letter, he says that at his highland nursery 3000 feet above sea-level, it grows just as beautifully as it does in England.

  • Portuguese Nationality for Sephardic Descendants
    Portuguese Nationality for Sephardic Descendants PRELIMINARY NOTES (1 MARCH 2018) Having worked for three years on the certification process of the descendants of Sephardic Jews of Portuguese origin the Board of the Jewish Community of Porto (CIP) would like to emphasise the following points: 1. The overwhelming majority of the certificates issued so far by CIP were granted to applicants descending from traditional Sephardic families who for centuries lived in Balkan countries – Macedonia, Greece, Bulgaria and the former Yugoslavia – and in Arab or Muslim countries – Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, the former Palestine, Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, Tunisia and Libya – rife with marriages between Jews of Portuguese origin and Jews of Spanish origin. These applicants may request their nationality in Portugal or Spain. 2. The Nationality Law Committee at CIP assesses applicants’ processes based on every single element that may guarantee that they have a tradition of belonging to a Sephardic community of Portuguese origin – e.g. the family surnames (and not only the applicant’s last name), the lists of surnames of the traditional Sephardic families of the countries where their forebears settled in the last five centuries, the communities and synagogues they belonged to, cemetery records, the types of ketubot and other objects the families may have kept down to the present, the religious or food rites and customs, episodes narrated in history books about the Portuguese Jewish diaspora, the applicant’s connection to the Jewish world in the present and their statues in the light of Halacha, the religious temples they still frequent today and the knowledge, however limited, of the history of such families by famous academics or Rabbis recognised by organisations with Halachic credibility – critically articulated with our knowledge and understanding of the reality, culture, religious law and Jewish communities as a whole and with other materials gathered throughout the assessment process, using the work tools at our disposal.

    WHAT Architect WHERE Notes Zone A1: Cidade do Porto – Cedofeita, Santo Ildefonso, Sé, Miragaia, São Nicolau & Vitória The double-decker Dom Luis I bridge is an icon of the city of Porto. It spans the River Douro linking the Port wine houses of Vila Nova de Gaia with the bustling downtown Ribeira district of Porto. Construction took place between 1881 and 1886 with the bridge being built adjacent to an existing bridge which it replaced. The granite Luís I Bridge Théophile Seyrig Ponte Luís I, Porto pillars of the original bridge are still in place, standing on the Ribeira like a pair of gate posts. It is probably no coincidence that the bridge passes more than a fleeting resemblance of its neighbouring bridge, the Dona Maria Pia bridge. The names of the two bridges came from the then king of Portugal, Luís I, and his wife, Maria Pia of Savoy. The Guindais Funicular is a funicular railway inaugurated on 3 June 1891.Almost 2 years later, on 5 June 1891, there was an accident caused by excess velocity, and the funicular car was decommissioned. As part of a larger initiative to improve the transport Funicular dos Raoul Mesnier du infrastructure of Porto, a new funicular and station was inaugurated Guindais Ponsard on 19 February 2004, following the same line as before. Two vehicles run the course, with a capacity for 25 persons each, operating at a maximum speed of 5 metres per second (16 ft/s). Mon-Thu (8am-10pm), Fri-Sat (8am-12am), Sun (8am-8pm) The Elevador da Ribeira or Elevador da Lada is a public elevator that connects the neighbourhood of Ribeira to the middle of the slope Miradouro Elevador 66 Largo dos Arcos António Moura of Barredo, by means of a vertical lift and a footbridge.
