He was there to request the shopkeeper for a job, which the latter turns down and shows him the door. While exiting, Yogen finds the handbag of Sadhna, absentmindedly left behind by her and returns to her. Sadhna is impressed by his honesty, when he declines her offer of a large wad of currency notes as a reward. Consequently, she develops feelings

Unfortunately, the merchant is runover by an approaching motor-car while Yogen was being pursued by him. Yogen is convicted for homicide and jailed, aided by the strong arguments put-forth by the Prosecution(Govt.) Counsel(K.N. Singh), who happens to be Sadhana's father. While going for hitch-hiking near the jail, where Yogen was incarcerated, unknowingly, Sadhna halts her motor-car for a short while. Incidentally, at the

Incidentally, at the very same moment, Yogen escapes from jail and hides in the vehicle to evade the pursuing jail-guards. Sadhna and Rani recognize him and bring him along.

The story takes many twists and turns with songs and dance numbers as usually happen in movies. But, their desire to marry is vehemently opposed by the father of the bride.

The juror confesses to his crime and is taken into custody. Yogen is absolved and is united with Sadhna.

Ian Dunstan

Ian Dunstan (born 28 February 1955) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for the Footscray Football Club and the North Melbourne Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Originally recruited from Fish Creek in South Gippsland, he is the son Maurie Dunstan and brother of Graeme Dunstan, both former Collingwood players. He was a tallish ruck-rover with great ability to win the ball and great skill at kicking straight in the direction of goal.Carlton and in his only final against Geelong a week later.

Paradoxically, it was whilst Footscray were declining from the middle bracket to perennial contenders for the wooden spoon with St Kilda and Melbourne that Dunstan rose to the heights not only of Footscray's top running players, but even to representing Victoria. On 1 July 1978 Dunstan and Kelvin Templeton kicked against St Kilda a record VFL/AFL total for two players in one team of 22 goals 12 behinds (144 points),Doug Strang and Jack Titus for Richmond against North Melbourne on 9 May 1931.

As a result of this and other performances, Dunstan represented Victoria several times in the last three years of the late 1970s. As Footscray struggled further owing to the club's limited financial resources – going from seven wins in 1978 and 1979 to only five in 1980, two in 1981 and three in 1982 – Dunstan won three best and fairest awards in 1979, 1981 and 1982 but Footscray's finances and a youth policy caused them to allow Dunstan to cross to North Melbourne for the 1983 VFL season. However, he would miss the whole season after breaking his arm in a practice game, and then suffered another injury at training while on the comeback trail.1984 VFL season against Carlton at VFL Park. On a forgettable day for the club, with the Kangaroos going down by 137 points, Dunstan was among the few North players to put in a respectable performance, gathering 20 disposals and kicking one goal. He played the first three games in the seniors but it was clear his best days were beyond him and afterward he played only three more senior matches.

At the end of 1984 Ian Dunstan retired from the VFL and played briefly with Werribee in the Victorian Football Association. He later joined struggling Association club Sunshine where he had the unfortunate fate to be coach of the senior club when it was expelled from the competition mid-season in 1989.

Hesketh Park, Southport

Wikimedia Commons has media related to Hesketh Park, Southport.

Hesketh Park is a public park situated near the north end of Lord Street in the Victorian seaside town of Southport, Merseyside, England. It was designed as a public park in the mid-19th century by Edward Kemp, and was further developed in the 20th century. The land was donated by the Rev Charles Hesketh and has many Victorian features and landscape designs.

History

The land Hesketh Park occupies was once (like the rest of Southport) sand dunes and beach, as the tides receded and the town of Southport grew, the need for a park was proposed. The land at the time was owned by Rev Charles Hesketh of Meols Hall, who donated the land for use as a public park. Hesketh Park was created by the Southport Commissioners through the Second Southport Improvement Act of 1865. Edward Kemp laid out the park which is of a near oval shape, possibly to the design of Joseph Paxton for whom Kemp had worked at Birkenhead Park in Liverpool. The layout cost of Hesketh Park was £12,000 and the park was officially opened in 1868. Various structures have been added to the park since it opened and some alterations have been made through the later 19th and 20th centuries, with the main alterations happening in 2007 when the park was restored as part of a major refurbishment and restoration scheme.

Facilities

The park visitor facilities include a Cafe and Play Area which is situated on the east side of the park and also features a crazy golf, the play area was dramatically reduced due to the restoration project with a whole new play area created on one half and the other half was grassed over for a field for ball games. The park toilet facilities were also upgraded as part of the restoration project and are situated near the east entrance to the park.

Notable features

Park Lodges

The Park has two gate houses at two of the entrances to the park. They are lived in by the park keepers and have colourful annual flower beds outside each lodge.

Queens Lodge is one of the gate houses to the park.

Glasshouses

The Glasshouses are the green house development by where the floral displays for the park are grown, this is a private area which is not accessible to the public and is situated behind the Conservatory.


Hesketh Park, Southport

Aviary

The Aviary once housed many exotic birds which included flamingos up until the late 1990s but due to neglect of the cages, the birds were removed. In 2007 as part of the park restoration project the damaged cages were removed, with the overgrown foliage and the remaining birds moved into the central remaining cages. There are future plans to restore the aviary but the project is awaiting funding

Conservatory

The Conservatory was once full of exotic plants, but since restoration in 2007 the plants were removed while the whole building was taken down and later restored on the same site.

Lake

The Lake is the biggest feature in the park, situated at the centre, it has a small island in the centre which was created for the wild birds which live and breed on the lake. The lake was restored to its full size with the extension to the west end of the lake in 2007, as part of the main restoration project. The lake once featured boats but since the restoration of the lake the boats have not returned to the lake.

Waterfall

The waterfall is situated to the north central bank of the lake. For many years the waterfall lay inactive and overgrown, up until the park restoration project which saw the revamp to the waterfall area and the removal of trees from the surrounding area.

Floral Clock

The Floral Clock is another feature of the park that has been restored, it is planted up with annual flowers each year in the formation of the Roman numerals and a decorative pattern. Many visitors since the Victorian period have come to visit the park just to see the clock and hear the cuckoo call when the clock strikes the hour.

Observatory

The astronomical observatory

Activity became sparse during the war years and in the 1960s the Education Department handed management of the observatory to Southport College. Their Head of Maths and Physics, John Bryson, who used the observatory for his work as a teacher also voluntarily opened the observatory every week during the winter months, when the weather was suitable, to members of the public. By 1980 the observatory fell into disuse mainly due to the encroachment of forest trees making observations difficult or impossible.


Hesketh Park, Southport

However, in 1985/6 the Education Department took a hand and managed a minor refurbishment of the building and telescope. The object was to use the facilities for organized school visits and invite the Astronomical Society to come back and make use of the building as well as organize Open Days and observational visits on suitable occasions.

Although the Southport Astronomical Society continue to use the observatory these ceased when the observatory was included in the 2007 refurbishment of the Park and Observatory. The building now has an electricity supply and telephone access but unfortunately during the building refurbishment a copper lining was used on the dome which attracted the attentions of illegal copper merchants. This has caused some damage to the dome. Although the dome metal runner was also renewed at this time it has not proved satisfactory and until this is put right the observatory cannot be used for observational work. The 2017 refurbishment is now complete and the observatory is now almost ready for opening to the general public on suitable occasions.

Some final work is being undertaken on the telescope and will hopefully be fully functional during the winter. The Astronomical Society continue to use the building for some of their meetings ( a bit of a squash on some evenings!) and will be present on Open Days when members will be available to talk to visitors about the observatory and the society.

Featured Gardens

Rose Garden

The Rose Garden is a formal garden dedicated to many varieties of roses and was very well known in the Victorian era. The Rose Garden was renovated in 2016 with the Victorian roses being replaced with modern roses from the David Austin nursery in Albrighton. The money for renovation being given as a grant from the National Lottery. Some of the Victorian roses are planted in an area not accessible to members of the public. The park still has many of the original varieties of roses which were originally growing in the Victorian era.

Rock Garden

The Rock Garden is a feature in a crater type garden on the top of a hill, it is accessed by sloping paths and by steep steps which once led to a shelter at the top. The seating shelter was removed and a seating/ viewing area was created. The rock garden also feature specimen trees such as atlas cedars and redwood trees.

Blind Garden


Hesketh Park, Southport

Blind Garden

The blind and disabled sensory garden was created in Hesketh Park in 1995 and its opening is commemorated by a plaque at its entranceway. Currently, it is a neglected/underfunded area, in need of refurbishment.

Parkrun

Hesketh Park is home to Southport Parkrun, a free 5 km timed event, which is open to all and fully staffed by volunteers.

On 26 August 2017 Southport Parkrun hosted the BBC for filming of Parkrun UK's Finalist Video for the National Lottery Awards.

Non-functional requirement

In systems engineering and requirements engineering, a non-functional requirement (NFR) is a requirement that specifies criteria that can be used to judge the operation of a system, rather than specific behaviours. They are contrasted with functional requirements that define specific behavior or functions. The plan for implementing functional requirements is detailed in the system design. The plan for implementing non-functional requirements is detailed in the system architecture, because they are usually architecturally significant requirements.

Definition

Broadly, functional requirements define what a system is supposed to do and non-functional requirements define how a system is supposed to be. Functional requirements are usually in the form of "system shall do <requirement>", an individual action or part of the system, perhaps explicitly in the sense of a mathematical function, a black box description input, output, process and control functional model or IPO Model. In contrast, non-functional requirements are in the form of "system shall be <requirement>", an overall property of the system as a whole or of a particular aspect and not a specific function. The system's overall properties commonly mark the difference between whether the development project has succeeded or failed.

Non-functional requirements are often called the "quality attributes" of a system. Other terms for non-functional requirements are "qualities", "quality goals", "quality of service requirements", "constraints", "non-behavioral requirements",ilities", from attributes like stability and portability. Qualities—that is non-functional requirements—can be divided into two main categories:

 1. Execution qualities, such as safety, security and usability, which are observable during operation (at run time).
 2. Evolution qualities, such as testability, maintainability, extensibility and scalability, which are embodied in the static structure of the system.

It is important to specify non-functional requirements in a specific and measurable way.

Examples

A system may be required to present the user with a display of the number of records in a database. This is a functional requirement. How current this number needs to be, is a non-functional requirement. If the number needs to be updated in real time, the system architects must ensure that the system is capable of displaying the record count within an acceptably short interval of the number of records changing.


Non-functional requirement

Sufficient network bandwidth may be a non-functional requirement of a system. Other examples include:

José Martínez (infielder/coach)

In this Spanish name, the first or paternal surname is Martínez and the second or maternal family name is Azcuis.

José Martínez Azcuis (July 26, 1942 – October 1, 2014) was a Cuban-born professional baseball player, coach, executive and scout. As a player, he appeared in 96 Major League Baseball (MLB) games during 1969 and 1970 for the Pittsburgh Pirates, primarily as a second baseman. Martínez threw and batted right-handed and was listed as 6 feet 0 inches (1.83 m) and 178 pounds (81 kg).

Biography

Born in Cárdenas in Matanzas Province, Martínez attended La Progresiva High School in his native city and signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1961. In 1969, he made his major-league debut; his 77 games played included 34 starts at second base, third on the club behind Bill Mazeroski and Gene Alley, the Pirates' former starting shortstop. On September 8, Martínez hit his only major league home run, a ninth-inning grand slam off Claude Raymond of the Montreal Expos that delivered the winning runs in a 6–2 Pittsburgh victory at Jarry Park Stadium.

Late in May 1970, Martínez returned to the minor leagues, where he spent the remainder of his playing career. He was acquired by the Kansas City Royals' organization in 1972, beginning a 16-year-long association with the club. He managed in the Royals' farm system during 1976–1979 and then joined the team's MLB coaching staff. Working under managers Jim Frey, Dick Howser, Mike Ferraro, Billy Gardner and John Wathan for eight seasons (1980–1987), he was with the team for their 1980 American League championship and 1985 World Series championship. In 1988, Martínez joined the Chicago Cubs, reunited with Frey, then the Cubs' general manager. He spent seven years as a member of the Cubs' coaching staff, working for four different managers.

In 1995, John Schuerholz, who had been farm system director and then general manager of the Royals during Martínez' tenure in Kansas City, brought Martínez to the Atlanta Braves' front office as his special assistant, and Martínez worked for the Braves for 20 years until his death on October 1, 2014.

Before starting work on the film, director Aleksey Nuzhnyy and screenwriter Nikolay Kulikov lost 28 and 20 kg, respectively.

Work on the script went on for two and a half years. During this time, the authors interviewed a large number of girls and women who are concerned about the topic of losing weight, so that everything in the film is as truthful as possible. There were 17 draft scripts in total.

Filming

The filming period was divided into two blocks. In the first block - May and June 2017 - Aleksandra Bortich was shot in full. After that, there was a break when Aleksandra Bortich switched to strict nutrition and trained 7 days a week. For a month and a half she lost weight and filming resumed.

Aleksandra Bortich herself performed many tricks in the film: she climbed from the balcony to the balcony on the eighth floor, jumped from the pier into the water at a temperature of less than 10 degrees, ran out of the burning bath in a burning sheet.

Criticism

According to film critic Anton Dolin (ru), despite the predictable plot, overkill with views of the city to pop music and the not very appropriate role of Sergey Shnurov, all the "shortcomings are fully paid for by the merits" of the film.

Release

The film was released in the Russian Federation by Universal Pictures International on March 8, 2018.

Reception

The film received mostly positive reviews, acting of Bortich and the script received praise.

Box office

The fees for the first day of rental amounted to 110 million rubles - as of mid-March this is the best achievement among Russian films in 2018, and for the first four days - up to 331 million rubles ($5.8 million),

Manse

Look up manse in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

The Old Manse, Concord, Massachusetts.

A manse (/ˈmæns/) is a clergy house inhabited by, or formerly inhabited by, a minister, usually used in the context of Presbyterian,Methodist,Baptist

Ultimately derived from the Latin mansus, "dwelling", from manere, "to remain", by the 16th century the term meant both a dwelling and, in ecclesiastical contexts, the amount of land needed to support a single family.

Many notable Scots have been called "sons (or daughters) of the manse", and the term is a recurring point of reference within Scottish media and culture.Gordon Brown was described as a "son of the manse" as he is the son of a Presbyterian minister.

When selling a former manse, the Church of Scotland always requires that the property should not be called "The Manse" by the new owners, but "The Old Manse" or some other acceptable variation. The intended result is that "The Manse" refers to a working building rather than simply applying as a name.

Ozone Journal

Ozone Journal is a 2016 Pulitzer Prize winning work by Peter Balakian.

First edition
(publ. University of Chicago Press)

The title poem of Balakian's Ozone Journal is a sequence of 54 short sections, "each a poem in itself, recounting the speaker's memory of excavating the bones of Armenian genocide victims in the Syrian desert with a crew of television journalists in 2009."

The long poem “Ozone Journal” is a sequel to Balakian's “A Train-Ziggurat Elegy” (2010). While excavating the remains of Armenian genocide survivors in the Syrian desert with a TV crew, the persona navigates his own memory of New York City in a decade (the 1980s) of crisis. Ozone Journal creates inventive lyrical insight in a global age of danger and uncertainty.

According to Bruce Smith, in this book "Balakian masterfully does the thing nobody else does which is to derange history into poetry, to make poetry painting, to make painting culture, to make culture living, and with a historical depth that finds the right experience in language."

The Pulitzer board said that Balakian's work “bear witness to the old losses and tragedies that undergird a global age of danger and uncertainty.”

Not Enough Rope

Not Enough Rope were a five piece folk-rock band

Biography

Not Enough Rope began in 1994 over a few beers at the Kalamunda Hotel in Perth, Western Australia. The initial idea was to get together, play a few songs and tell a few yarns. The group soon grew from three to five and it was regular rehearsals in the original bass player's (Adrian Conti) orchard packing shed.Things of Stone and Wood in 1995 and even finding Jewel joining them on stage for an impromptu gig, after she had performed a major live show elsewhere that evening.

The name Not Enough Rope arose by accident, while rehearsing at Keally's garage, the band was brainstorming a name and eventually agreed on Not Enough Rope. It eventuated from a makeshift rope clothesline that had fallen down due to the end fraying and breaking, the band deciding that the name reflected their sound and style.

Even likened to The Pogues in their early days, there was something in their music that, if not touching the heart, it imbued a wistful and melancholy feeling with a touch of sweetness.

Their debut EP was I'll Tell You When I See You in 1996, followed by their debut album Fingerpistol and My Way EP (both in 1998) and Paying Off My Radials album in 2001, which features a cover of The Triffids' "Wide Open Road".

Matt Kealley now plays in acoustic folk rock band, Jigger, Matt Galligan is a professional photographer, Todd Lynch and Michael D. Lane went on to form King Brown and Shanks Pony, a group Lynch is still actively involved in. Michael performs regularly, generally in Fremantle, as a solo artist and a guest player for local original artists, and as a facilitator of inclusive music sessions with the community organisation Catch Music.

Byron Mavrick now works full-time as a Chartered Accountant in Perth, and is also a keen open-water swimmer. In 2012 he led a four-man team ("the Men in Grey Suits") in the Rottnest Channel Swim in a time of 6 hours and 6 minutes.

John Elphinstone (courtier)

John Elphinstone of Selmes and Baberton (1553-1614) was a Scottish landowner and courtier.

Career

He was a son of Robert Elphinstone, 3rd Lord Elphinstone and Margaret Drummond, a daughter of John Drummond of Innerpeffray and Margaret Stewart, a daughter of James IV of Scotland.

His father granted him the lands of Selmes (Selms), near Kirknewton, West Lothian, when he was an infant.

He was a servant of the Duke of Lennox in 1590.

He was in London in November 1592 with his father, or his brother the Master of Elphinstone, probably as a servant of Duke of Lennox. He wrote to Archibald Douglas from Edinburgh with court news in December. He was going to Alloa Tower with James VI and Anne of Denmark to the "infare" wedding celebrations of the Earl of Mar and Marie Stewart, a sister of the Duke of Lennox. There would be a masque in which the queen performed in costume, and the plan was to travel to Tullibardine afterwards.

James VI had invested 54,000 dalers from Anna of Denmark's dowry in various Scottish towns, and in July 1594 Elphinstone was authorised to collect £4,000 Scots from St Andrews and Anstruther for the clothing of her household, "the apparrelling of hir laydis, madynnis of honnour, gentilwemen, and serving wemen." This was for the baptism of Prince Henry celebrated at Stirling Castle.

Elphinstone was described by James VI as a "servitor to our dearest bedfellow the queen", a servant of Anna of Denmark, in March 1595, and received £1000 Scots as payment for his service to date in September 1599.Baberton in August 1597. He seems to have been a gentleman of the queen's privy chamber from 1591 to 1603. He is also described as one of the queen's ushers. He was knighted in 1604 and made a denizen of England in May 1605.

Elphinstone had reputation at court for dancing.

Arbella Stuart

Arbella Stewart regarded him as a "very good friend". Her letters, as early as August 1603, mention that he knew Mary Talbot, Countess of Shrewsbury.Worksop Manor in June when Anne of Denmark travelled from Scotland to London.

Elphinstone wrote to Arbella Stewart in March 1608 from Whitehall Palace. He had received Arbella's letters from Hardwick Hall and Sheffield. He reassured her about the business of her lutenist Thomas Cutting being sent to Denmark to serve Christian IV. He sent her barrels of salmon, herrings, and the pickled dill preferred by Grace Cavendish, Lady Chatsworth, the wife of Sir Henry Cavendish. He mentioned that Anne of Denmark was moving to Theobalds to join King James in the following week.

He may be the same person as the "John Elveston" in the household of Anna of Denmark in London in 1608. According to the Earl of Arundel and his wife Alethea, John Elveston revealed the marriage of Christian Bruce and William Cavendish, 2nd Earl of Devonshire to the queen on their wedding day, and had a hand with Arbella Stewart in arranging the marriage.

On 7 May 1613 Gervase Helwys, the newly appointed Lieutenant of the Tower of London was instructed to allow Elphinstone to visit Arbella Stuart and speak to her in private.William Wade had been dismissed after his daughter helped Arbella Stuart make a wax impression to obtain a duplicate key.

Petitioning for payment

His lands of Baberton were transferred to the royal master of work James Murray around the year 1606. In a legal document drawn up in April 1608, Elphinstone mentioned his need to provide for his children, especially the three youngest, John, George, and Margaret.

In February 1608 Anne of Denmark forwarded a petition to the king for Elphinstone to be granted a lucrative patent. The angered King James who read it and tore it up. According to Roger Aston the king objected to its drafting.Lord Balmerino for treason,Christian IV had given him. His creditors had imprisoned his servant, because as a royal domestic servant he had immunity. Elphinstone applied for a patent to license chapmen and beggars. He received £500. He and his nephew Michael Elphinstone were given yearly pensions of £200 in 1609.

He died in October 1614. Lucy Russell, Countess of Bedford wrote to her friend Jane Cornwallis that he died "on Tuesday last, to the great grief of all good dancers".

Elphinstone made a will for his property in England. According to this will, Elphinstone had borrowed £1,000 from Anne of Denmark which he hoped she would not claim from his nephew John Elphinstone, 2nd Lord Balmerino. He left a gold chain with a miniature portrait of Christian IV with a diamond ring, which the Danish king had given him, to be added to the posterity of the house of Elphinstone. He left a diamond ring that Anne of Denmark had given him to the House of Balmerino.

Hesketh V1000

The Hesketh V1000 is a 992 cc (60.5 cu in) OHC V-twin motorcycle with 4 valves per cylinder. It was originally designed and built by Hesketh Motorcycles in Daventry, Northamptonshire. Sales proved disappointing as the motorcycle was expensive and, at 86 bhp, it was somewhat underpowered given its hefty dry weight of 244 kg (538 lb).

Some 149 V1000 motorcycles were produced before the company was wound up in August 1982,

A Motor Cycle News review said "the engine has a classic simplicity, delivering a modest 86 bhp at just 6500 rpm", adding buyers seeing the Hesketh V1000 as an 80s Vincent twin should "understand it’s a handbuilt, relatively sedate, classic British motorcycle".

History & development

1982 Hesketh V1000

Lord Alexander Hesketh had been planning the production of a new motorcycle since 1974 and began talks with engine specialists Westlake in 1977 about the proposed development of a big V-twin. Hesketh Motorcycles PLC was formed in 1981, a purpose built factory was set up to manufacture the V1000 in Daventry, and production began in 1981.

Styled by John Mockett, who later went on to design the Triumph Rocket III, the Hesketh V1000 was conceived as a luxury sports machine that could save the British motorcycle industry.Weslake as an air-cooled 90° V-twin with 95 mm (3.7 in) bore and 70 mm (2.8 in) stroke, giving a displacement of 992 cc. With a one piece cast crankshaft and aluminium jackets on iron cylinder barrels and alloy cylinder heads, the V1000 had four valves per cylinder and an overhead camshaft. The V1000 had electronic ignition and a Lucas alternator and starter motor. Lubrication was semi wet-sump

After the collapse of the Hesketh Motorcycle company, Lord Hesketh acquired most of the liquidated assets; and in 1983 he formed a new company, Hesleydon Ltd, to manufacture a revamped V1000 with a full fairing. This model, the Hesketh Vampire , was described by reviewers as "heavy and tall". The Vampire went into production prematurely, while still needing development. As well as gearbox problems such as false neutrals, the new fairing restricted turning and the Vampire did not sell well.

Subsequent events

Broom Development Engineering was established in 1982 by Mick Broom, the Hesketh engineer and test rider.

In 2006, after the failure of his business ventures, Lord Hesketh sold the family seat, Easton Neston, at Towcester in Northamptonshire. In September 2008, in a bid to attract much needed investment in the marque, Mick Broom put the Hesketh motorcycle business on the market.

Not Even My Name

Not Even My Name is the biography of Sano Halo, who survived the Greek genocide and moved to the United States of America. The book was written by Sano Halo's daughter, Thea Halo, and first published in 2000 by Picador, an imprint of Macmillan Publishers. The biography focuses on Sano Halo's experience during and immediately after the genocide. Not Even My Name was originally published in English in the US, but it has been translated into Dutch, Icelandic, and Greek.

Summary

The book is divided into three main sections. These sections are interspersed with Thea Halo's poetry and some historical background.

Book One: The Long Journey Home

In the first chapter, Thea Halo writes a bit about her own childhood. She grew up in New York City, a child of immigrant parents. She and her nine siblings knew little of their heritage growing up. Both her parents, Sano and Abraham, had come from West Asia. Her mother was Pontian and her father Assyrian.

The rest of Book One covers Thea and Sano's journey to Turkey in 1989. Both had wanted to find Sano's hometown: Iondone, a cluster of three small settlements near Fatsa. They traveled through Ankara, Amasya, and Fatsa on their way to Iondone.

Book Two: Not Even My Name

Pontic mountains in Trabzon Province

In chapters 7 through 17, Thea details her mother's life in Iondone. These chapters are written in first-person from Sano Halo's perspective. Sano had grown up as Themía in a mountain village. Her village was inland, located in the Pontic Alps, near the coastal settlements of Fatsa and Ordu. Her father and grandfather were blacksmiths, while the women were homemakers. She recalls that, during World War I, Turkish soldiers sometimes came to the villages to draft young Pontian men. These men were sent away to the amele taburları, or labor battalions.


Not Even My Name

However, Themía also remembers happy summers spent with her family high up in the forested mountains. She lived in a log house with her parents, grandfather, aunts, and uncles. Her family had a farm and animals, and Themía had her own calf named Mata. She recalls playing with her siblings, picking wildflowers, and taking neighbors' cattle out to pasture. She and her sister went to school and knew how to read. Her village, one of Greek-speaking Christians, coexisted more or less peacefully with the nearby Turkish villages.

When Themía was nine years old, rumors began to spread around her village: Pontians were being massacred along the coast. Around the same time, Themía noticed strange men hiding in the fields and woods around her village. She later learned that they were Kurds. Themía's fellow villagers began to worry for their safety, and hoped that the Andartes

A short while after World War I had ended, Turkish soldiers came to Themía's village. One winter day, they rounded up all men of working age, including Themía's father, Lumbo. A neighbor told Themía's mother that the men had been taken to labor camps. Themía's father escaped the labor camps and returned to his family. He managed to hide with his family and avoid recapture.

In the spring of 1920, soldiers took Themía's grandfather from his workplace. His family never saw him again. Turkish soldiers rounded up many men from her village that season. During spring planting, soldiers came to Themía's family home and forced the family to the village square at gunpoint. Many families crowded into the square. A Turkish officer announced that the villagers would have three days to pack what they could carry. After that, soldiers would force them to leave. Themía's mother gathered food and clothes. Her father, Lumbo, buried the family's pots and pans so they wouldn't be stolen.

On the dawn of the fourth day, Turkish soldiers forced the people of Iondone to leave on foot.

Book Three: The Exile

Themía and her family passed through the neighboring Turkish town on their way south. One man told the family that Themía's grandfather had died in the camps. Soldiers pushed away the Turks who tried to talk to or walk with their Christian neighbors.


Not Even My Name

None of the exiles knew their destination. Soldiers forced them to sleep on the ground even when they were within walking distance of a village. Often, they prohibited the exiles from buying food. Themía's mother, Barthena,Fajr prayer, and every night, the exiles were allowed to stop for the Isha prayer. Otherwise, the exiles could only stop walking when the soldiers allowed.

Themía's shoes wore through after four months of walking. She recalls at least one death per day of the march. The soldiers prohibited the exiles from burying their dead; young and old alike were left to rot on the side of the road. Themía's little sister, Maria, died on the roads, and soldiers forced the family to abandon her. Buzzards followed the exiles. Themía recalls seeing villagers she knew among the dead.

[Black-and-white view of roofs in a city]

Diyarbakır, around 1900

When the exiles arrived in Diyarbakır after seven months of walking, French relief workers gave them bread. Themía's family stopped in a small town outside Diyarbakır. In that town, Themía's sister, Nastasía, died of illness while lying across Themía's chest.

One day, Themía's parents woke up their remaining children very early, before the dawn. They escaped, leaving the other exiles. They went to a small, abandoned town called Karabahçe.

The stranger was an Arabic-speaking Assyrian woman named Ruth. Because she could not pronounce "Themía," she gave the girl a new name: Sano. From then on, Sano was expected to run errands for the family: she fetched water, looked after the children, and helped with cooking. She learned to speak Arabic and Kurdish to communicate with the other villagers.

One day, Sano's father came: he told her that her sister, Mathea, had died after a long sickness. The Assyrian family hired him to work at their home, but he came rarely, and his visits eventually stopped. When Sano's father did return, he told her that Barthena had also died. By that point, when Sano tried to cry for her lost family, no tears would come.


Not Even My Name

Ruth treated Sano cruelly; she stole her things, regularly insulted her, and lied to her. Sano's brother Yanni came to the house and informed Sano that her last remaining sister, Cristodula, had died. Ruth quickly sent Yanni away. Sano continued to work for Ruth's family. Ruth stole things from Sano, including a pair of shoes and a lahore

One day, Sano ran away from Ruth, but went back to her house. After that, Ruth became more violent, beating Sano when she did chores incorrectly and threatening to kill her. Sano ran away a second time and walked to Diyarbakır. She was looking for a kind woman who'd once visited Ruth's house. When Sano reached the city, strangers gave her food, and she found the woman she was looking for. The woman gave her a place to sleep for a few days. Soon, another woman named Zohra took Sano in.

Zohra and her family were Armenian, so Sano also learned Armenian. Sano helped Zohra take care of the house, the children, and older relatives. When Mustafa Kemal took power and Zohra's family fled to Syria, Sano went with them. They bought an apartment in Aleppo.

When Sano was 15, Zohra had her marry an Assyrian from Merdin named Abraham. He lived in the US and wanted a wife who could live there with him. He was thirty years her senior, but he was wealthy, and he paid the equivalent of US$100 for Sano's dowry. Abraham consummated their marriage soon after the wedding. Sano was confused and afraid; she didn't yet menstruate, and she didn't understand what sex was. Abraham was gruff with Sano, sometimes hitting her, during the early years of their marriage. However, Abraham's relatives were kind to Sano. They had survived the Assyrian genocide and sympathized with Sano's experience.


Not Even My Name

Sano and Abraham lived in Aleppo for a few months while Abraham tried to find them both passage to America. Finally, they went to Beirut and took a ship to New York City. While on board, Sano taught herself to crochet.

Book Four: America, America

In August 1925, Sano and Abraham arrived on Ellis Island in the USA. Sano moved into a New York City boardinghouse with Abraham. She had to take care of Farage, his son from a previous marriage, who was only five years her junior. Sano picked up English so she could speak to him and other Americans. She worked as a homemaker, doing housework while her husband did odd jobs and her stepson went to school.

Crossing into Spotswood, NJ

Sano didn't get her first period until she was around 16, and she became pregnant with her first child soon after. She gave birth to Mariam, Helyn, Harton, Nejmy, and Amos in New York.

During the Great Depression, Sano taught herself to sew. She also improved her crocheting skills so she could clothe the children. Most of what she knew, including cooking and housework, she learned from watching others.

The family moved around a lot because money was scarce. In the 1930s, the family bought a plot of land in Spotswood, New Jersey. Abraham built a house, and as the years went by, the children helped him with renovations. Abraham planted vegetables and fruit trees in the yard. Sano gave birth to David, Timothy, Thea, Adrian, and Jonathan in those years. Sano worked at different factory jobs to support the family as Abraham aged.

The children grew up and had children of their own. Sano and Abraham entertained them at the New Jersey house regularly. Abraham died at age 94. Once he was dead, the town bought their land for development.

Book Five: Journey's End

Not Even My Name

In this portion of the book, Sano's life story returns to the present. Thea Halo details their trip to Turkey as she did in the first few chapters.

Sano and Thea Halo had been staying in a hotel in Aybastı. From there, they took a dolmuş to the site of Sano's hometown. On the way, they met an elderly Turkish man who remembered Sano's family, and had been fifteen at the time of the deportation.

The man showed them a set of hills near his house, explaining that Iondone had been there. Sano became distraught; she wanted to know where the buildings had gone. The man introduced them to a woman living in a small house near the site of Iondone.

The woman was younger, but she said she'd lived in Sano's house. She showed them a pile of stones where Sano's childhood home had been. The woman explained that people from neighboring villages had torn down the houses, looking for gold or any valuables the deportees had left behind. Thea and Sano both gained some sense of closure: that everything was gone, but they were not.

Reception

Not Even My Name sold well in Astoria, Queens, which hosts a large Pontic Greek population. Sano Halo was invited to speak about her experiences at Astoria's Stathakion Cultural Center in 2000.

Publishers Weekly reviewed the book, calling it "eloquent and powerful."Peter Balakian, an American writer and translator, said, "Thea Halo has written an important book about a largely unknown history."

During WWI, thousands of Armenians and Anatolian Greeks fled Turkey, landing in northern Syria. The Red Cross fed these refugees; many were homeless and poor, forced to shelter in caves. Sano Halo traveled through Syria with these thousands of others. Before the publication of her story, it wasn't well known that Pontians sought asylum in Syria.


Not Even My Name

The book has also received criticism. A writer for the Washington Post praised the narrative aspect of the story. However, he disapproved of Thea Halo's approach to Turkish history, writing: "Her purpose is to reinforce a particular perspective on modern history, a view that comes close to regarding the entire Turkish people as innately hostile to minorities."Erik Sjöberg, in his book The Making of the Greek Genocide, questioned Thea Halo's narrative writing. He thought she embellished some parts of the narrative: the bucolic Pontian village, the detailed discussions among adults. Sjöberg also noted Thea Halo's bias when writing historical background information.

Pontian organizations and Greek-diaspora news sources nicknamed Sano Halo "Grandmother of the Pontian Greeks."Not Even My Name, and multiple news sources reported on her death in 2014.
