The BBC is the UK's publicly funded radio, television and internet broadcasting corporation, and is the oldest and largest broadcaster in the world. It operates several television channels and radio stations both in the UK and abroad. The BBC's international television news service, BBC World, is broadcast throughout the world and the BBC World Service radio network is broadcast in thirty-three languages globally. The domestic services of the BBC are funded by the television license, a legal requirement for any British household with a television receiver that is in use to receive broadcasts, regardless of whether or not the householders watch BBC channels. Households which are the principal residence of any person over 75 are exempt and the requirement does not extend to radio listeners. The BBC World Service Radio is funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the television stations are operated by BBC Worldwide on a commercial subscription basis over cable and satellite services. It is also this commercial arm of the BBC that forms half of UKTV along with Virgin Media. There are five major nationwide television channels in the UK: BBC One, BBC Two, ITV1, Channel 4 and Five - all currently transmitted by analogue terrestrial, free-to-air signals with the latter three channels funded by commercial advertising (independent channels).

  • 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.

  • MS Dep 1990/1 Glenesk-Bathurst Papers
    Handlist 96 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY GLENESK-BATHURST PAPERS Deposited in the Brotherton Library By the Earl Bathurst Special Collections MS Dep 1990/1 INTRODUCTION These papers were most generously deposited in the Brotherton Library for the use of the scholarly community by the Earl Bathurst in 1990; we are extremely grateful both to Lord Bathurst and to Dr Keith M Wilson of the School of History in the University through whose good offices the material was brought from Cirencester to Leeds. The Glenesk-Bathurst papers revolve around the Morning Post, an influential Conservative newspaper which eventually merged with the Daily Telegraph, and relate mainly to the Edwardian period though the coverage extends back into the later years of Queen Victoria and forwards to the early 1920s. The Morning Post had been acquired by Algernon Borthwick in 1877 and for many years he was very active in its management besides sitting as Conservative MP for South Kensington from 1885 to 1895; he was knighted in 1880 and raised to the peerage as the first Baron Glenesk in 1895. In his later years much of the management of the paper, both business and editorial, devolved upon his son, Oliver (1873-1905) who tragically predeceased his father. Upon the death of Lord Glenesk in 1908 control of the paper passed to his daughter, Lilias, who had married Seymour Henry, 7th Earl Bathurst, in 1893. She was a formidably accomplished woman and the newspaper flourished for many years under her aegis, but after the First World War circumstances began to change and in 1924 Lord and Lady Bathurst sold the paper to a consortium headed by the Duke of Northumberland.
