This was scrapped, and Ian Ogilvy took over the halo for 24 episodes as Simon Templar. This amount is subject to change until you make payment. He also somewhat deplored the tendency for the Saint to be seen primarily as a detective, and this was even stated in some of the later stories, e. Reading about Charteris' "amiable rascal" is infinitely easier and much more relaxing than writing more stories about my own fictitious rascal, Misfit Lil whom I like to think shares a trait or two with Mr Simon Templar!

  • Session 20 Speak
    SESSION 20 SPEAK GOAL The goal of this is session is for the teens to see the communion of saints as their extended family, to understand what it means to be a witness of the faith, and to get to know a few modern saints. KEY CONCEPTS Confirmation calls us to be witnesses of faith and provides us with the graces to do so. Being a witness means being a martyr; martyrdom does not necessarily mean dying for the faith, but requires a willingness to sacrifice and suffer for truth. When learning how to become better witnesses, we should look to the examples of other members of the Church — particularly Mary and the saints. KEY TERMS Martyr: A witness to the truth of the faith, in which the martyr endures even death to be faithful to Christ. Saint: The “holy one” who leads a life in union with God through the grace of Christ and receives the reward of eternal life. SCRIPTURE: 2 Timothy 1:6-8, Acts 2:1-11, Matthew 16:24-27 CATECHISM: 954-959, 963-969, 1302-1304, 2471-2474 ABOUT THIS CONFIRMATION SESSION The Gather is a fun game of Family Feud, which helps emphasize that this is a session about family, namely the communion of saints. The Proclaim teaches about the important role Mary and the communion of saints play in the teens’ lives. The Break gives the teens an opportunity to get to know a saint from our modern era more personally. The Send is a group prayer during which the teens ask the saints to pray for them through one of the Church’s oldest prayers, the Litany of Saints.

  • Migrating Birds at a Stopover Site in the Saint Croix River Valley
    Wilson Bull., 105(2), 1993, pp. 265-284 MIGRATING BIRDS AT A STOPOVER SITE IN THE SAINT CROIX RIVER VALLEY A. R. WEISBROD,,~‘ C. J. BURNETT, ’ J. G. TURNRR,,~‘ AND DWATN W. WARNERS ABSTRACT.-We captured 16,527 birds in five habitats at Sandrock Cliff, Saint Croix National Riverway, during spring and fall of 1985, 1986, and 1987. Nearctic-Neotropic migrants comprised 66% of the 118 species captured. They comprised the majority of individuals taken in spring (82.5%), autumn (68.9%), and overall (72.7%). Nearctic-Neo- tropic migrants averaged 15 weeks between median capture dates, arriving later in spring and departing earlier in fall than temperate zone migrants. The latter spend about 20 weeks elsewhere between median capture dates. Differences in spring and fall capture rates in five habitats suggestsbirds shift habitat use seasonally. ReceivedI I May 1992, accepted25 Nov. 1992. The biological community and habitat requirements of long distance avian migrants along their regular annual migration routes are known poorly, and the relative importance of particular habitats to the migrating populations remains to be determined. Most observers are aware that survival of migrating populations is dependent both upon successful re- production during the northern summer season and a successful non- breeding wintering period in the tropics. It also appears the non-breeding portions of the long distance migrants ’ life cycles are as critical to survival of the population as the reproductive periods (Recher 1966, Rappole et al. 1983, Berthold and Terrill 199 1). Because similar economic and tech- nological pressures exist for both regions, one may assume reasonably that North American habitats used during annual migrations may suffer reduction and fragmentation similar to that occurring in tropical America (see Robbins 1979, Robbins et al.

  • Filmed Across the World, Made at Elstree’: How Television Made at Elstree in the 1960S and 70S Brought a Global Experience to the Small Screen
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Hertfordshire Research Archive ‘Filmed Across the World, Made at Elstree’: How television made at Elstree in the 1960s and 70s brought a global experience to the small screen The various studios of Elstree and Borehamwood were, in the 1960s and 70s, home to globetrotting adventurers including The Saint, Department S, Jason King, Danger Man, and The Baron. While many of the shows made featured the globetrotting exploits of their leading characters – Simon Templar, international playboy; Jason King, Interpol agent and novelist; and John Drake, spy and fixer for international organisations – the production crew rarely, if ever, left the confines of the TV sound stages and backlot, except for a brief dash down Borehamwood high street or into rural Hertfordshire. This paper will discuss the operations and technical methodologies used on a weekly basis by production crews in their attempts to recreate Rome, Paris, Madrid and even the Sahara Desert on small budgets, using stock footage and with limited materials. During the 1960s, the studios of Elstree and Borehamwood produced some of the most adventurous and prolific television productions in the UK. Three major studio sites (all of them actually in Borehamwood, not in Elstree) – MGM British Studios, Associated British Productions (ABPC) and ATV Studios – were all producing television content 52 weeks of the year. “Elstree’s” output during this time was at its peak. Production crews at Elstree were able to make shows with an international flavour, while barely leaving the studio.

  • 1 Exploring Detective Films in the 1930S and 1940S: Genre, Society and Hollywood
    Notes 1 Exploring Detective Films in the 1930s and 1940s: Genre, Society and Hollywood 1. For a discussion of Hollywood’s predilection for action in narratives, see Elsaesser (1981) and the analysis of this essay in Maltby (1995: 352−4). 2. An important strand of recent criticism of literary detective fiction has emphasised the widening of the genre to incorporate female and non-white protagonists (Munt, 1994; Pepper, 2000; Bertens and D’Haen, 2001; Knight, 2004: 162−94) but, despite Hollywood’s use of Asian detectives in the 1930s and 1940s, these accounts are more relevant to contemporary Hollywood crime films. 3. This was not only the case in B- Movies, however, as Warner’s films, includ- ing headliners, in the early 1930s generally came in at only about an hour and one- quarter due to budgetary restraints and pace was a similar neces- sity. See Miller (1973: 4−5). 4. See Palmer (1991: 124) for an alternative view which argues that ‘the crimi- nal mystery dominates each text to the extent that all the events in the narrative contribute to the enigma and its solution by the hero’. 5. Field (2009: 27−8), for example, takes the second position in order to create a binary opposition between the cerebral British whodunnit and the visceral American suspense thriller. 6. The Republic serials were: Dick Tracyy (1937), Dick Tracy Returns (1938), Dick Tracy’s G- Men (1939) and Dick Tracy vs Crime, Inc. (1941) (Langman and Finn, 1995b: 80). 7. The use of the series’ detectives in spy-hunter films after 1941, however, modifies this relationship by giving them at least an ideological affiliation with the discourses of freedom and democracy that Hollywood deploys in its propagandistic representation of the Allies in general and the United States in particular.
