Wreckers (film)

Wreckers is a 2011 drama film written and directed by D. R. Hood and starring Claire Foy, Benedict Cumberbatch, Shaun Evans, Peter McDonald, and Sinead Matthews.

Plot

A married couple, David (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Dawn (Claire Foy), move back to David's childhood village and work on rebuilding a house. They are trying for a child and arrange to see a doctor. David's younger brother, Nick (Shaun Evans), who has not been in touch for several years, comes back from the army and pays them a visit. Slowly, events in their messy childhood are revealed.

David and Nick, with Dawn, meet their childhood neighbours Gary (Peter McDonald) and Sharon (Sinead Matthews) who are now married. They recall their childhood memories and Dawn learns some unexpected things about David and Nick. She also learns from an old teacher of theirs that their father used to beat them. Day by day, Nick shows himself as a troubled man, especially due to his experiences during the war. Dawn reaches out to comfort him but it spites David who is tired of taking care of him and says that he can't be helped. David grows more and more jealous of the attachment between Nick and Dawn. Nick's mental illness gets worse and finally he decides to leave them and go back to the army.

Dawn meets Gary in the church where they attend a choir and he shows interest in her. They have a picnic where Dawn secretly sees Nick and Sharon having sex in the garden. While returning from a function in the church, Gary tries to kiss Dawn but she refuses. When David and Dawn consult with a doctor, David admits that he's unable to father a child. This leaves Dawn shocked and upset and they have a fight. David is horrified to think that Dawn might leave him.

Gary visits Dawn at their home the next morning. Dawn tries to avoid him by pretending she's not home but eventually they end up having sex. Later, feeling horribly guilty, David apologizes to Dawn who feels heavy with guilt herself. They reconcile, David realizes how much she wants the child and says he wants her to be happy.


Wreckers (film)

They meet their friends for a barbecue before Nick leaves where David, Nick and Gary get into a fight, again revealing more of their childhood troubles. Some time after Nick has left, David receives a call which says that Nick has gone AWOL. Dawn goes looking for him at their childhood house and finds him there, much troubled. He tells her that David used to look after him as their father was abusive but that David kind of owned him. He claims that David loves him but Dawn says that's not love and that David hates him. She tells him to leave them alone if he truly loves his brother.

Later that night, Dawn goes back to the old house to give Nick some money but finds the place empty. She returns home and faints due to her pregnancy. She wakes up in a hospital, finding David beside her bed. He is filled with remorse about how he's treated her and the fact that he's kept secrets. He tells her to keep the baby, knowing that he cannot give her what she wants, probably assuming the baby is his brother's child.

Later the couple is seen as a happy family with a baby boy. David is raising him with Dawn as his own. In the final scene, they run into Gary and Sharon in a park. Whilst Gary is holding the boy, David suddenly realises that he is actually the father. But after they leave, David keeps walking, saying nothing, only holding the baby closer.

Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union

The Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union is an independent union for employees of newspapers based in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.International Brotherhood of Teamsters.The New York Times, New York Post, New York Daily News, The Star-Ledger, El Diario, America Oggi, and The Wall Street Journal. They also deliver for Hudson County News Company (magazines) and Liberty News, Inc. (periodicals). It represents the National Distributors Alliance (NDA).

History

Horse and buggy (circa 1910) helped union members make their deliveries

The NMDU grew out of the Newsboys' strike of 1899. On October 29, 1901, the union formed. "It was born as a union of horse-and-buggy newspaper deliverymen at the turn of the century, a stepchild of the fledgling labor movement and New York's yellow journalism wars."

In 1945, the NMDU went on strike, so New York City Mayor Fiorello La Guardia struck back by reading newspaper comics aloud on his Sunday radio show.

Hudson News store

From the 1950s through the 1970s, Asher SchwartzO'Donnell & Schwartz served as counsel to the union against the National Labor Relations Board and the New York Times.

In the 1970s, mobster Samuel "Red" Levine was involved with the NMDU:

Formed in the early 1900s, the Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union was equal parts Irish, Italian, and Jewish, a reflection of the city's then dominant ethnic groups. Well into the 1970s, Jewish racketeers played a major role in the union. One of them, Red Levine, was reputed to have been one of the assassins of Salvatore Maranzano, the old-school mobster who helped to found America's Cosa Nostra. Law enforcement officials, as well as longtime union members and mob associates (often the same thing in the NMDU) say that Levine cleverly allowed each of the city's five Mafia families to have a piece of the newspaper delivery action, which included bootleg sales of stolen papers as well as loan-sharking and gambling among drivers.


Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union

In 1978, the Federal Bureau of Investigation began inquiring into the union's line of business and possible connections to organized crime. A federal grand jury under Robert B. Fiske Jr., United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, began holding hearings. The FBI alleged that allegations that the union's president had demanded payoffs from wholesalers.Robert B. Cohen pleaded guilty in federal court to paying NMDU officials $37,000 in exchange for favorable treatment in dealings between the union and his companies. He was fined $150,000 as part of the guilty plea.

Mugshot of Joseph Bonanno of the Bonanno crime family, with whom the NMDU got involved

In the 2000s, Bonanno crime family members and associates involved in the News and Mail Deliverer's Union were incarcerated for racketeering with regard to circulation of the New York Post (see entry on Robert Perrino).

In 2009, the NMDU affiliated for the first time in nearly a century, choosing the 14,000-member International Brotherhood of Teamsters union.

In 2014, the FBI arrest six people associated with the NMDU for conspiring obtain a union job fraudulently for the some of an organized crime underboss.

In 2018, the NMDU accepted a buyout package worth $155,000 each for 70 members to let the Daily News eliminate some 40 delivery routes.

Function

The union defends the rights of its members. It provides a pension plan for retired members and their beneficiaries, as well as a welfare plan for members and their families that include life insurance and death benefits.

Organization

Leadership

Joseph D. Bannon was the union's founding president from 1901 to 1928.

Carl Levy was president from 1969 to 1976.

Ronald O'Keefe was union president in 2002.

Currently, Thomas Bentvena serves as president and Charles Setteducato as vice president, secretary, and treasurer.

Membership

In 1964, NMDU membership was about 2,700 members.

Legacy


Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union

Legacy

In 1991, the New York Times described the union as "tainted with corruption that sent some of its leaders to jail, with father-son nepotism that kept black and Hispanic drivers out of its ranks for decades, and with unswerving self-interest that has sometimes engendered mistrust by fellow unions and, critics say, may even have speeded the death of some ailing newspapers."

Reflections (Dove)

Reflections is an oil on canvas painting by American artist Arthur Dove from 1935, now in the Indianapolis Museum of Art, in Indianapolis, Indiana, US.

Description

Reflections is a highly representative Dove piece, a flowing abstract landscape with trees under a prominent Sun. The whimsy, organic elements, and prominent Sun and Moon are all characteristic themes of his work. Although at first glance a straightforward landscape, Dove once referred to it as "Reflections (from headlights in car)", indicating a more complex possible reading.

Historical information

In 1910, Dove became the first American to paint an abstract work. His bold, emotional paintings earned him membership in the Stieglitz Group, a cadre of Americans devoted to modernism.Geneva, New York, to live on his family estate. Though unhappy with the region's provincial character, he remained for five years. His work underwent a profound shift in this period, as his artistic and geographic isolation led him to concentrate on scenes from his bucolic surroundings and the "purely formal appeal of natural objects' shapes and lines, which he emphasized to the point of abstraction with organic shapes and unexpected color schemes".Reflections was created squarely in the middle of his Geneva period.

Location history

Dove first sold Reflections to his long-time friend and patron Alfred Stieglitz in New York. It was then added to the collection of the Downtown Gallery in New York before being acquired by Mr. and Mrs. Denman of Bellevue, Washington. The work then shuttled through private and corporate collections before returning to New York and the Alexandre Gallery, from which it was purchased by the IMA. It is currently housed in the Paine American Modernism Gallery.

Acquisition

Reflections was purchased in 2003 from the Alexandre Gallery courtesy of the Caroline Marmon Fesler Fund. Its accession number is 2003.161.

Reflections from the Firepool is the third studio album by American rock band Djam Karet.

Release and reception

Allmusic reviewer François Couture preferred the band's later releases, noting that here "their assembling is a bit more crude." Despite this he praised the band for being at the top of their form, admitting that "all the elements that would constitute the band's sound for the next ten years are present."All About Jazz shared much of the same criticisms, while noting that "the band goes for the jugular as they pursue impacting motifs amid heated interplay and cunning developments, in a loud yet purposeful sort of way."

In 2000, Cuneiform Records adopted and re-issued Reflections from the Firepool with an alternate cover.

Track listing

All music is composed by Djam Karet.

Newspaper Row (San Francisco)

37°47′16.3″N 122°24′12.05″W / 37.787861°N 122.4033472°W

Newspaper row, 1902.

Newspaper Row in San Francisco referred to the five-point intersection of Market Street, Kearny Street, Third Street and Geary Street, where three of San Francisco's largest daily newspapers were headquartered, across the street from each other. By 1902, The San Francisco Call, The San Francisco Examiner and the San Francisco Chronicle were in buildings on corners, with the Chronicle in the Chronicle Building, the Call in the Spreckels Building and the Examiner in the Examiner building. The intersection became known as the "Times Square of the West".

History

Newspaper Row began when the Chronicle Building, the first steel-framed building the Western United States, was constructed. It was the tallest building in San Francisco upon completion in 1889. William Randolph Hearst, the owner of The San Francisco Examiner, purchased a nearby lot, where he intended to build a taller building. In 1895, Claus Spreckels began construction of the Spreckels Building for The San Francisco Call, and the five-point intersection of Market Street, Kearny Street, Third Street and Geary Street was set as the center of news in the city.

Newspaper Row was partially destroyed in the 1906 San Francisco Fire. The Call's Spreckels building and the Examiner's Hearst building were slowly gutted over two hours, and the Chronicle's building was similarly gutted, but the brick remained and was rebuilt.Oakland Tribune.

Relocation

The two surviving papers later relocated to near the intersection of Fifth Street and Mission Street, The San Francisco Examiner (Fifth) and the San Francisco Chronicle (Mission) across from the San Francisco Mint.

General elections were held for the Legislative Council in Nyasaland in August 1961. The result was a victory for the Malawi Congress Party, which won all 20 lower roll seats (in five of which they were unopposed)

Electoral system

There were two voter rolls, a lower roll with a predominantly African electorate, which elected 20 members, and had 106,095 registered voters, and a higher roll of largely European and Asian electors, which elected eight members, with 4,337 registered voters. As five constituencies in the lower roll were uncontested, only 75,707 voters were eligible on election day.

Aftermath


1961 Nyasaland general election

Aftermath

Before the elections, the Colonial Office had assumed that the Malawi Congress Party would be entitled to three Executive Council seats through winning a majority of the lower roll seats. As the Lancaster House agreement provided that two Executive Council seats would go to ministers elected from the higher roll, it was thought that the mainly white United Federal Party would gain both these seats. In the event, the United Federal Party only won five seats, two going to Congress and one to a Congress-inclined independent, Colin Cameron. The Governor offered the United Federal Party a single Executive Council seat, which it refused. This left all five elected Executive Council seats available for Congress candidates.

Ravenswood, Tasmania

Ravenswood is an eastern suburb of Launceston, Tasmania, Australia.

History

Ravenswood was first settled in the early nineteenth century as a small farming area. The first official valuation of properties in the district took place in 1858.

For some years after the arrival of the pioneers, there was only one road to Launceston across a ford at St. Leonards. There were no bridges. The farmers went by horseback to Launceston to sell their fruit, butter, eggs and vegetables.

There is very little about the area indexed at the Archives Office in Tasmania, but what information there is supports the claim that the Ravenswood district took its name from the property owned by David McGown on Distillery Creek.

As well as already obtaining grants of land from the Government, Mr McGown purchased 2000 acres and another 30 acres at Distillery Creek from Henry Prialux, the original grantee, in February, 1836, for the sum of two thousand pounds. He called his property at Distillery Creek "Ravenswood". Later he named the area near his home "Roslyn". His first home on the property was, unfortunately, burnt. Ultimately the district became known as Ravenswood.

In 1838, Mr. McGown stated evidence to the Distillation Committee that he had carried on business as a Distiller for 14 years in Scotland and for 6 years in the colony at the site, Distillery Creek.

On 19 May 1838, the Cornwall Chronicle carried a warning to trespassers not to allow cattle on the property of "Ravenswood", the property of D. McGown (known as Priaulx's grant).

It was in 1840, according to the Cornwall Chronicle that he offered "Ravenswood" and the "Caledonian Will" for sale.

In 1858 and 1868 the assessment rolls showed John Faulkner as occupier of the house with garden and land owned by D. McGown's trustees, agent - James Scott.

"Distillery Creek" received its name for an obvious reason. The Caledonian Distillery, sometimes known as Towers' Distillery, was built on Mr. McGown's property and was conducted by his brother - in - law, James Towers, whose brother, Robert, operated the semaphore station at Windmill Hill.


Ravenswood, Tasmania

Nearby settlers used to bring their grain to the mill. They received in return bottles of whiskey which were passed to them through spaces between horizontal bars firmly set in wall openings. The water used for distilling was piped from a spring in the hills above.

On the opposite side of Distillery Creek near the site of the home of Mr and Mrs D. Brooks, there was once a flour mill called Harden Mill, built in 1857 to the order of James Scott, the surveyor and son-in-law of D. McGown. He lived in "Bowhill", Glen Dhu, behind Coats Patons' Mill. In 1868 Gaunt and Co. were occupiers and James Scott was still owner.

By 1892 James Marshall was the operator. An illustration of "Marshall's Mill" may be found in records in the local history room at the Northern Regional Library. Later it was sold to Robert Hogarth. Finally, in 1932, it was demolished because there were large cracks in the walls and it was considered unsafe.

An early map shows four adjoining properties owned by Jame McNally, Francis Bourke, Richard Dry and Dalrymple Keating. These properties were purchased on 31 July 1883, by Ameia Dean, wife of George B. Dean owner of the Phoenix Bakery, St John Street, Launceston. The farm "Hiawatha Farm", was first used as a run for horses which drew the bread delivery carts. The farm extended to what we now know as Ravenswood Road. Gradually, small sections have been sold to make way for Launceston City Council initiated developments, e.g. flood prevention, a section of Bell Bay railway, housing and the present school.

In December, 1914, an agreement was drawn up between Amelia Dean and a solicitor, Louis Page, to have a bridge built across the North Esk River at Henry Street. Louise Page was to have the bridge built in return for 20 acres of land from Amelia Dean. The conditions were that the bridge had to be above the level of the highest flood, (it withstood the flood of 1929), that it be completed in nine months and that it be substantial enough to bear the weight of traction engines and other machinery. Roads approaching it were to be completed in twelve months. The bridge was replaced by the Launceston City Council in 1968.


Ravenswood, Tasmania

Another bridge, the first, was built by George Hobler, who had land at South Ravenswood, bound by the North Esk. He obtained permission from the Government to build a bridge over the river at his own expense. This was the first Hobler's bridge. George's property was known as "Killafaddy". Since then, two more bridges of the same name have been built and each has been in a different place.

According to one source, two of the best known early settlers were the Towse brothers, who emigrated from England. It has been suggested that their property was named "Ravenswood", after their property in their homeland but Archives did not reveal any evidence to substantiate this. Their first home was built of stone. A small church was built on the corner of Wildor Crescent and Henry Street (now demolished). The Towse brothers were buried in the cemetery nearby. Other tombstones bear the names of Faulkner, Gipton, Elmore and Hodgson.

Timber split in the bush and hauled by bullocks was used to build a small hall on Mr. Gipton's property. The renovated building, now the Ravenswood Gospel Chapel is in front of the original Gipton house.

Quite a few of the early homes, like Mr. Gipton's, were made of large blocks of stone. At one time there were six such homes facing Launceston. Mr Bird and Mr Tattersall both lived in stone houses near the recreation ground and Mr S. Leslie lived in another near the reservoir.

Names of other early settlers not mentioned elsewhere are Boag, Luck, Lawrence, Goodyer, Rankin, Olding, Bradshaw, Chandler. Land holders shown on an early map were Kealing, Dry, Burke, McNalley, Stonehouse, Mackey, E. Wench, Snell, whose holdings were "located". D. McGown, C. Swan, H. Chapman, T. Learmonth and H. Jennings were "granted" land.

The first school was built on land given by Robert Gipton, who migrated from Ireland, he married Miss Towse. The building of the first school consisted of one school room with an attached residence of four rooms and a sun room. The structure was at the rear of Mr Spataro's house in Henry Street.


Ravenswood, Tasmania

Children came from as far as Rocherlea, Mowbray, Vermont, Prosser's Forest and Russell's Plains, Waverley and Newstead. The enrolment at one time reached 60. The school was closed in 1940 because of diminishing numbers. Mr R. K. Jones was the last principal. The building itself was re-erected at Ogilvie Park where it serves as a caretakers residence. The flag which was used at the first school in Ravenswood was donated to the present primary school by Mrs R. K. Jones.

Education

Ravenswood's population expanded rapidly in the 1970s and in 1976 a high school opened under the Principal Peter Brooker. The school population peaked in 1979 - 1984 when around 700 students from grades 7 to 10 attended the first open plan high school in Tasmania. Over the years the school population declined and by the early 1990s the High School was considered for amalgamation. Ravenswood now has two schools, including Ravenswood Heights which formed at the end of the 1996 school year after the amalgamation of the three local schools Ravenswood High, Ravenswood Primary and East Ravenswood Primary. After the amalgamation Ravenswood Primary was closed and later re-opened as a special school. While Ravenswood High became the senior campus for grades 6-10 with East Ravenswood becoming the junior campus for grades 1-5 as well as having a kindergarten. The senior campus closed at the end of 1999 after many years of low enrolments, leaving remaining students to choose between nearby Brooks High School at Rocherlea or Queechy High School at Norwood.

Saint Paul (El Greco)

Saint Paul is a 1610-1614 painting by El Greco, now in the Museo del Prado in Madrid.Gregorio Marañón's theory that the painter used mental patients at the Hospital del Nuncio as models.

It originally formed part of a series of works produced by the artist for the parish church in Almadrones, Spain, a series which represented a set of variants on a set of paintings of the apostles for Toledo Cathedral. Although not one of the twelve original apostles, Saint Paul, the "Apostle of the Gentiles", replaced the disgraced Judas in both series.

The letter in his left hand is addressed to "Titus, ordained first Bishop of the Church of the Cretans", who was at one time Saint Paul's secretary.

Nissan Pivo

The Nissan Pivo is a series of electric concept cars created by Nissan, with the first one introduced in 2005 at the Tokyo Motor Show.

Pivo 1

The Pivo is a concept car created by Nissan, first introduced at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show. The car is essentially a 360 degree rotating three-seater cabin on a chassis of 4 wheels, eliminates the need for reversing and makes parking easier.

The Pivo is powered by a lithium-ion battery. The car's futuristic design incorporates large doors for easy access to the cabin and large windscreens and windows for high visibility. As well as the fully rotational cabin, the Pivo features Nissan's Around View Monitor system. This reduces blind spots (areas of the road which cannot be seen from the driver's position) by displaying the outside surroundings on screens mounted on the inside of the car's A-pillars, located on either side of the windshield.

Pivo 2

An updated version of the concept, designated Pivo 2 was unveiled in 2007. The wheels have been moved to rotating pods that allow the car to drive in any direction. Along with the rotating cabin, this allows the car to pull up next to a parking space, and instead of conventional parallel parking, the wheels and cab simply rotate 90°, and the car drives in sideways. The rotating cab also now has only one door (the front of the cab itself), allowing passengers to exit or enter from any direction desired. The car also has an inbuilt robot companion.

Ogres Knitwear

Ogre Knitwear is one of the leading manufacturers of knitwear in Europe.Latvia

History

The construction of the Ogres Knitwear factory began in 1965. The decision to go forward with such a project was made by the United Counsel of Peoples Economy on 30 May 1964, and by the committee of Building and the Architectural committee of the ministry on 20 June 1964. From March 1965 until October 1968, the company bore the name of Ogres Knitwear factory. By the decision of the cabinet of ministers of Latvias SSR from 23 October 1968, and by the order of the ministry of light industry of Latvias SSR from 5 November 1968, Ogres Knitwear factory was renamed as Ogres Knitwear Factory of 50th anniversary of All-Union Leninist Young Communist League. The construction of the factory lasted five years. The funds spent on the project totalled 40 million rubles(US$1 – 1 Rub : 1–0,9000). The investment was recovered in 3,5 years. The factory possessed spinning mill and sowing equipment which was made in Italy, as well as knitting equipment from the United Kingdom. The completion of the factory was broken down into stages. The first stage of the spinning mill was completed on 28 February 1968, the second stage followed on 30 September 1969. On 30 July 1970, all stages of the project were completed. The main form of activities of the factory were determined to be spinning pure wool and half wool yarn mix, knitting fabrics, and manufacturing of knitted garments.

Slowly, the structure of the company began to take form. In 1965 there were four structural units (accounting, building, HR, equipment specialists), but in 1971 there were already 29 structural units. During those times, the factory was building momentum and adding new work force. The training of young employees took place in a professional technical institute in the city. The acceptance of the graduates was in a form of a special ceremony.


Ogres Knitwear

Later, during the work years, there were many motivation programs in place. There were professional contests. The winners received diplomas and other awards. In the summer, there was a festival where workers showed off their skills. From 1972, the company began publishing its own newspaper, Ausam. It was published every week in Russian and Latvian. The publication contained information about best performing workers and social news. Development continued in the 1980s – in 1981 a branch plant in Preiļi was built and put into operation. It was responsible for sewing knitwear garments. In the mid-80s the company again underwent a name change – by the decision of the Council of Ministers of the Latvian SSR, 12 October 1985, it was renamed Ogre spinning and knitting union. The company worked under this title for the next 5 years. On 8 August 1990 the consortium of Light Industry "Latlegprom" on Presidium meeting endorsed the working unions request to rename the company – Enterprise Production Association "Ogre." On 10 June 1991 State Production Enterprise "Ogre" was registered in the Register of Enterprises of the Republic of Latvia. In the early 1990s there was a partial reconstruction of the spinning factory and an introduction of a new processing of wool fibers, using "Superwash" equipment. Wool which undergoes such processing is softer and wears longer. At the same time, the International Wool Secretariat presented the company with the right to bear the "Woolmark". In 1992, the company produced 3500 tons of yarn and 5 million units of knitwear. Yarn was mainly used for the operation of the enterprise, as well as being supplied to other companies in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, in turn, the knitwear produced was sold in Latvia and abroad – in Germany, Sweden, Finland. The changing socio economic structure of the state affected the factory. It transformed from a state-owned factory to a private company. In 1997 it belonged to the holding company, "Baltin Holdnig" and from 2004 continues its successful development within the holding company, "Mono."
