Waterhouse Stops

 * This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.

The Waterhouse Stop was an early form of controlling the entry of light into a camera. Commonly a thin piece of metal is drilled with a series of holes corresponding to what today we call f/stops or f/numbers. Alternatively a number of pieces of metal would be drilled with various sized holes. It was also used in photographic enlargers in the darkroom.

It is a way today of obtaining a smaller aperture than the lens maker has provided when wanting extreme depth of field such as a pinhole camera provides.

NOUN CLAUSES IN NIGERIAN PIDGIN
<div class="boilerplate metadata vfd" style="background-color: ; margin: 2em 0 0 0; padding: 0 10px 0 10px; border: 1px solid #AAAAAA;">

<!--        WORDS; do not copy content from another website. NOUN CLAUSES In Nigerian Pidgin grammar all noun clauses may optionally begin with the noun clause introducer se. This is the only morphological marking device, which distinguishes noun clauses from other clauses. Noun clauses occur in one of two syntactic positions following the verb of their superordinate clause: the object position or the adverbial position. A noun clause may also follow an adverbial clause introducer, in which case it can be taken to be part of a larger adverbial clause. Equally, there is little or no evidence in Nigerian Pidgin to suggest the existence of categories like the ‘copular’, ‘adjective’, or ‘intransitive verb’, hence a noun clause that does not occupy the adverbial position can be said to be the syntactic object of the verb of the clause to which it is subordinate. Therefore, noun clauses in Nigerian Pidgin may be looked at as follows:

1.	Object noun clause A    tink     [se   dem  kuk     rais]. 1sP   thinkF   [ncI  6sP  cookF rice] ‘I think they cooked rice.’

2.	Adverbial noun clause Im   tel     mi   se    ‘chop rais’ [se  hongri   du     mi    finish]. 3sP  tellF   1oP  ncI    eatF rice  [ncI hungry   doF    1oP   +C] ‘(S)he told me, ‘eat the rice’ because I was hungry.’

3.	Noun clause as part of an adverbial clause A    go    kuk   stu   [if   [se  yu  bai  mit]]. 1sP   -R    cook  stew  [avcI [ncI 2sP -R   meat]] ‘I will cook stew if you buy meat.’

SEMANTIC REPRESENTATION OF NOUN CLAUSES Verbs of cognition or perception in most instances take noun clause objects:

4.	Yu  sàbi  mi.        2sP  knowF 1oP ‘You know me.’

5.	Yu sàbi  [se  A   de  Port Harcourt] 2sP knowF [ncI 1sP cvF Port Harcourt] ‘You know that I am in Port Harcourt.’

6.	Yu   si   mi        2sP   seeF 1oP ‘You saw me.’

7.	Yu si   [se  A   de  Port Harcourt] 2sP seeF [ncI 1sP cvF Port Harcourt] ‘You see that I am in Port Harcourt.’

The structures used for direct and indirect speech are very similar, both are composed minimally of a verb of reporting such as tok ‘talk’ or tel ‘tell’ followed by a noun clause. The major distinguishing feature between direct and indirect speech in Nigerian Pidgin is that while the pronominal person categories of the original utterance are maintained in direct speech constructions, they are converted to those appropriate to the reporting situation in the case of indirect speech:

8.	Dem tok  [se  ‘Wi de  Port Harcourt’]. 6sP talkF [ncI 2sP cvF Port Harcourt] ‘They said,“We are in Port Harcourt.” ’

9.	Dem tok  [se  dem de  Port Harcourt] 6sP talkF [ncI 6sP cvF Port Harcourt] ‘They said that they are in Port Harcourt.’

Broadly, the most commonly utilised structure for both direct and indirect reporting of questions are made up of a verb of interrogation such as aks ‘ask’ accompanied by a noun clause object.

10.	Direct yes – no questions James aks mi  [se ‘Yu  go  maket  ?’] James askF 1oP [ncI 2sP goF market Qù] ‘James asked me,“Did you go {to the} market?” ’

11.	Indirect yes – no questions Ema aks mi  [se  weda    a   go  maket]. Ema askF 1oP [ncI whether 1sP goF market] ‘Ema asked me whether I went {to the} market.’

12.	Direct question-word questions Sam aks mi  [se  'Weting dem  giv    yu  for maket?’] Sam askF 1oP [ncI what? 6sP giveF  2sP p   market] ‘Sam asked me, “What did they give you at the market?” ’

13.	Indirect question-word questions Ema aks mi  [se  dem giv   mi  weting for maket]. Ema askF 1oP [ncI 6sP giveF 1oP what? p  market] ‘Ema asked me what they gave me at the market.’

Below are further examples of noun clause objects of verbs of interrogation:

14.	Chime aks mi  [se  hu   giv   mi  weting for wer?]. Chime askF 1oP [ncI who? giveF 1oP what? p  where?] ‘Chime asked me who gave me what where.’

15.	Ada aks mi  [se  weting dem give  mi]. Ada askF 1oP [ncI what? 6sP giveF 1oP] ‘Ada asked me what they gave me.’

16.	Nsirim aks mi  [se  dem aks  yu  [(se)  weting]]. Nsirim askF 1oP [ncI 6sP askF 2oP [(ncI) what?]] ‘Nsirim asked me what they asked you (about).’

On rare occasions in Nigerian Pidgin, a verb of speaking may be used in both direct and indirect questions in place of a verb of interrogation:

17.	Im tel /  tok   mi  [se  weting dem giv   mi]. 3sP tellV+ talkF 1oP [ncI what? 6sP giveF 1oP] ‘(S)he asked me what they gave me’. OR ‘(S)he told me what they gave me.’

It is also possible in indirect questions for a relative clause or a headless relative clause including a question word to be substituted for a noun clause, if an oblique hearer-object is present:

18.	(a) Im aks  mi  di   ting   we   a     kuk. OR           3sP askF 1oP ar   thing  rcI  1sP cookF (b) Im aks  mi  (se – ncI) weting a   kuk. 3sP askF 1oP           what? 1sP cookF ‘(S)he asked me what I cooked.’

While the noun clause introducer se is permissible in constructions similar to the second example in 18b, se is not allowed in sentences such as the one in 18a. In most instances, the same verbs of speaking are used in the superordinate clause, although as Faraclas (1996: 32) reports, other verbs such as wont ‘want’ are possible here as well but the noun clause objects of these verbs must embody an imperative subjunctive clause:

19.	Im tel  mi  [se ‘(Mek  yu)  kuk!’] 3sP tell 1oP [ncI (SJcI 2sP) cookSJ] ‘(S)he told me, “cook!” ’

20.	Im tel  mi  [se  mek  a   kuk]. 3sP tell 1oP [ncI SjcI 1sP cookSJ] ‘(S)he told me to cook.’

21.	A tok   [se  mek  dem no kuk]. 1sP talkF [ncI SjcI 6sP ng cookSJ] ‘I said that they must not cook.’

All copular verbs in Nigerian Pidgin may take syntactic objects under certain conditions. Due to this reason and because the category adjective is absent and primarily replaced by stative verbs, which also accommodate syntactic objects, it becomes very difficult to establish a special class of predicate noun clauses that is not identical in nearly every way to the well-motivated class of object noun clauses. Sentences such as the ones below in numbers 22, 23, and 24 can be said to motivate the assignment of the noun clauses in 25 and 26 to the class of noun clause objects:

22.	A  de  Port Harcourt. 1sP cvF Port Harcourt ‘I am in Port Harcourt.’

23.	Moni de  mi  for porket. Money cvF 1oP p  pocket ‘I have money.’

24.	Yu bi  jentulman, i   no bi  –am  ? 2sP cvF gentleman 3sD ng cvF -3oP Qù       ‘You are a gentleman, isn’t that right?’

25.	Di wahala bi  [se  yu  bi  jentulman]. ar trouble cvF [ncI 2sP cvF gentleman] ‘The trouble is that you are a gentleman.’

26.	I bi  laik [se  yu  go  Aba]. 3sD cvF cx  [ncI 2sP goF Aba] ‘It seems that you went to Aba.’

Stative verbs that tell us about human sentiments and emotions like gud ‘be good’, bad ‘be bad’ or hapi ‘be happy’ can also take noun clause objects:

27.	I gud      [se  yu  go  Aba]. 3sD be goodF [ncI 2sP goF Aba] ‘It is good that you went to Aba.’

28.	I gud      [se  mek  yu  go Aba] 3sD be goodF [ncI SJcI 2sP F Aba] ‘It is good that you go to Aba.’

29.	A hapi      [se  you go  Aba]. 1sP be happyF [ncI 2sP goF Aba] ‘I'm happy that you went to Aba.’ OR ‘I am happy because you went to Aba.’

The two glosses in example 29, point to the fact that two interpretations are often possible for this type of sentence, depending on whether the noun clause is taken to be occupying the object position as in the first gloss or the adjacent adverbial position in the second gloss. These interpretations are more fully illustrated by the verb veks ‘angry’, which allows more flexibility in the assignment of semantic role to its syntactic subject than does hapi:

30.	A de  veks      [se  you kuk   rais]. 1sP ־C be angryF [ncI 2sP cookF rice] ‘It is making me angry that you cooked rice.’ OR ‘I am getting angry because you cooked rice.’

31.	Im de veks     mi  [se  yu  kuk  rais]. 3sP ־C be angry 1op [ncI 2sP cook rice ‘It is making me angry that you cooked rice.’ OR ‘I am getting angry because you cooked rice.’

The object noun clause of example 30 is roughly equivalent to example 32:

32.	[Se yu  kuk   rais] de veks     mi.        [ncI 2sP cookF rice] ־C be angry 1oP ‘That you cooked rice is angering me.’

While the second gloss of example 31 could be restated as in 33 below:

33.	[Se yu  kuk   rais] na im  {mek}  a   de veks. [ncI 2sP cookF rice] E1 3EP {SJcI} 1sP ־C be angry ‘You cooked rice, (that) is why I am getting angry.’

Se is accommodated in certain environments while it is not in others. For instance, se is more likely to occur:

a)	Before directly reported (quoted) speech, questions, or commands; b)	Before a pronoun; c)	After a copular verb or a mental state verb; or d)	When the noun clause is shifted to sentence-initial position.

Se is less likely to be used:

a)	Before a question-word in indirectly reported questions and b)	After the focus introducer na.

NON-FINITE NOUN CLAUSES The categories ‘verb’ and ‘noun’ are not in most cases clearly demarcated. A large number of the lexical items grouped as verb or noun may equally belong to either category. When a lexical item leaves a particular category, it drops the arguments, modifiers, and auxiliaries appropriate to the category it leaves and takes on those of the category it enters. However, in most instances a particular item may leave one category without undergoing any form of morphological transformation, syntactic position being the only identifiable criterion for category assignment:

34.	waka ‘walk’ (prototypically a verb?) Na waka  we  di waka    peson  de waka   wakawaka EI walk/n rcI ar walk/mn person ־C walk/v walk/ip ‘It is walking that the walker walks walk-walk-walk.’

35.	wahala ‘trouble’ (prototypically a noun?) Wahala    man,no wahala      mi  wit  ya  wahala! Trouble/mn man ng troubleSJ/v 3EP with 2ps trouble/n ‘Trouble-maker, don’t annoy me with your irks.’

In some constructions, whole sentences may be nominalised. The components of the focused sentence do not undergo any sort of morphological change and all are part of the focus construction. For example:

36.	Na [a  don rich] bi  dat. EI [1sP +C rich] cvF that ‘I am rich is what that is. {I have hit the jackpot.}’

As some investigators into Nigerian Pidgin grammar and this author have discovered, there is little to be gained by labelling verbal items involved in the multifunctionality and focalisation process described above as infinitives, gerunds or even nominalisations. Since these are the only forms in Nigerian Pidgin which even slightly suggest the existence of non-finite verbs or clauses, all sentences, clauses and verbs in the language may be said to be finite. In acrolectal speech a rather interesting set of proto-nonfinite verbal constructions seems to be emerging, in such environments as following the modal serialised verbs wont ‘want’, laik ‘like’ or stat ‘start’ and then extending gradually to other environments.

37.	A wont   drink. A  bigin   drink 1sp wantF+ drink+                1sP beginF+ drink+ ‘I want to drink.’                'I began drinking.’ @A wont [de drink]. @A stat [de drink]. -C                                -C @A wont [tu drink]. @A stat [tu (de) drink]. to                                 to (-C) These acrolectal forms can be said to be motivated by several different constructions found in all lects of Nigerian Pidgin as well as by constructions found in Nigerian Standard English (NSE). The non-finite use of [de + verb] matches the semantics of the NSE [verb-ing] gerund with the semantics of the Nigerian Pidgin incompletive aspect, which is marked by de. Syntactically and phonetically, de and tu do not only resemble each other, but also to of the NSE [to + verb] infinitive, the Nigerian Pidgin and NSE generic verb du and do and the Nigerian Pidgin preverbal adverbial tu ‘too much’. Agheyisi (1971) describes a similar construction in her Midwestern Nigerian data, which employs [fo + verb] where [de / tu + verb] is used in Port Harcourt. It should be pointed out that Agheyisi does not mention whether the distribution of this form is socially conditioned (Faraclas, 1996: 35).

Laya Raki ( born Brunhilde Jörns on July 27, 1927 in Hamburg,Germany), the dancer with the singular erotic radiation and adored film actress in the Germany of the 1950s and early 60s, became also an international star for her roles in English films and TV productions.

Biography

The black - haired daughter of the acrobat Maria Althoff and the partner acrobat and clown Wilhelm Jörns attracted the attention for the first time in 1947 – 1950, when she danced in the nightclubs of Frankfurt (Frankfort) and other German cities. In 1950 she performed in Berlin. Her perfect figure (with the measurements of 38-23-36) became the talk of the town and her star began to rise.

The film company DEFA engaged her for a role as a dancer in the famous film Der Rat der Götter (The Council of the Gods), which won two awards. The Berliner Morgenpost wrote about her enthusiastically that she`s a really great dancer with an expressive face rich in nuances. In the same year the press department of the Realfilm presented her as a new discovery for Die Dritte von rechts (The third from the Right), a rather boring dance film, with a highlight, being the scene in which the scantily clad dancer Laya Raki exposes to the lustful gazes of the male cinema audience. In 1953 she also danced in the film Ehe für eine Nacht (Marriage for One Night). The next film was Die Rose von Stambul (The Rose of Stamboul), where the great Austrian actor Paul Hörbiger wants to marry her when seeing her dancing. In Roter Mohn (Red Poppy) she played the ardently dancing gipsy girl Ilonka who also conducted amusing dialogs with the famous Viennese comic actor Hans Moser.

In 1954 a swindler promised her film roles in England and even in Hollywood and succeeded in luring her to London, where she was without means – but only for a short time. Fortunately that made headlines. The Arthur Rank Film Company, which needed a slightly exotic type for a film in New Zealand, received her with open arms. In The Seekers she played convincing the Maori chieftain`s seductive wife. The film caused a worldwide stir by showing her with naked breasts, 10 years before Rudi Gernreich invented the first topless swimsuit. Other interesting film roles waited for her, for example in Up to His Neck. Finally she advanced to be a topstar in English TV productions. In the 39 episodes of the popular English TV show Crane (from 1963 - 1965) she played the Arabic girl Halima.

The light clad Laya Raki captured the men`s attention like nearly no other German show- or glamourgirl in the fifties. It was her speciality to exhibit her feminine charms. The sought after pin-up girl posed for wonderful filmpostcards and lots of magazines all over the world. The Broadway columnist Earl Wilson annotated her preference for scanty clothing like this: “You should have seen Laya Raki. Even if she is dressed, she looks like, as if she only wears the zipper and has forgotten the material”. Of course he placed some photos of her in Earl Wilson’s Album of Showgirls (1st Issue! 1956).

In 1962 she performed as a singer. At a recording studio she breathed 2 titles in the microphone, Faire l`amour and Oh Johnny hier nicht parken, which are still available. The latter was forbidden with punishment by the county court of Nuremberg because the ecstatially moaning singer would imitate a coitus.

At the age of 30 Laya Raki married the Australian actor Ron Randell in London. “He is the best and most beautiful man of the world”, she said and remained at shis side until he died on June 11, 2005, in Los Angeles.

Helmut Bann
Helmut Bann (1894-1954) is a french poet and singer. Born in Paris, in a jewish family, he had a tumultuous childhood, due to the context of growing anti-semitism in France, along with the Dreyfus affair. His father Abraham Bann was an optician (in the sense of making lenses for eyeglasses), and his mother Delhia had to take care of her three children by herself. Helmut was the junior of his family, and had an elder sister Ruth, and a little brother Michael. When the Dreyfus affair turned almost into a civil war after the publication of "J'Accuse...!" from Zola, the Bann family decided to move in Arcachon where the violences against the jews were less strong. By the age of 18, young Helmut decided to join the french navy, and went to Asia, Africa, Australia, and America. In 1910, he decided to stay in the United States, in the city of Huntsville, Alabama, where he started writing poems and songs about the memories of his travels. With WWI, he decided to stay in the United States until the end of the conflict. During all this period, he started melting with local musicians and country singers, and it is often said that his musical orientation was strongly influenced by this country period. After the end of the war, he went back to Arcachon, France, and married in 1923 Liliane Braun. They had four children together, and their last was Yaruch Bann in 1931. Helmut Bann continued his poetical work during the pre-war period, but decided to go back to Huntsville with his family in 1940, with the Vichy France that threatened all the jews in France. He died in 1954 from a heart attack.

The Orange Tree Theatre was founded in a room above the Orange Tree pub in Richmond in December 1971. It was set up as a result of the "alternative theatre" explosion across the 60's and 70's. In 1975 Young's Brewery rennovated the pub and the theatre changed from lunchtime to evening performances. James Saunders became the house playwright, writing Bodies for the theatre, as did David Cregan. The new Orange Tree Theatre opened in February 1991 in an old school across the road from the original pub site. Since then the Orange Tree has been commited to theatre in the round.

Ryan Brown
Ryan Brown is an artist originally from South Bend, Indiana. He is son to Sandra Stackhouse, M.D., founder of the Kelly Elaine Brown Memorial Endowment, and Adrian D. Stackhouse, Ph.D., co-editor of After Africa: Extracts From British Travel Accounts and Journals of the Seventeenth, Eighteenth, and Nineteenth Centuries Concerning the Slaves, Their Manners, and Customs in the British West Indies at Yale University and author of Gutbuckets and Bluetips: Rationales and Reality Attitudes Towards the Blues, in 1975.

Brown migrated to New York City in 2004, where he completed his Master's Degree in Communication Design at the renowned Pratt Institute, after touring the United States, South America, West Indies, Europe, Scandinavia, Thailand, China, and living briefly in London where he completed notable materials for The Design Distillery. At a young age, Brown started his career as a graphic artist but began infusing his own illustration, printmaking techniques, and hand-lettered typography in his work.

As a fan of Pratt predecessor Paul Rand, Brown devotes his designs to complete clarity and space– a minimialist approach to visual harmony, though priding himself on eccleticism and no one brand or method of design. His Master's work, The ShedNEDD Hypothesis (NEDD- Neo Etiquette Deficiency Disorder) is not only an example of his social attack on fragmented society (cited at http://www.shednedd.com by communication devices), but also of his playful manner in handling profound subjects with polished illustration and animation. The campaign features a full-budget pharmaceutical ad spoof executed by guerilla vandalism, which Brown later admitted was inpired by the work of Shepard Fairey and OBEY. Original installation of work was completed at Pratt Manhattan Gallery.

In 2005, Brown submitted a brand revision campaign to the world-famous natural health spa/cosmetic company, AmorePacific, and was received as consultant and grand contest winner. His work was featured in Asia's DESIGN Magazine and in AmorePacific's flagship store and headquarters in Seoul, Korea. The publicity from this award brought him to the attention of Arthur Lubow, president of AD Lubow Advertising. AD Lubow is one of many New York advertising agencies, but is unique in serving the cultural audience in the fields of Not-for-Profits, Education, Philanthropy and the Arts. Lubow quickly acquired Brown and he now serves as Art Director at this quickly growing enterprise. Recent work includes specialty podcasting pieces, video, web animation and print publications as a part of AD Lubow's 360° approach to advertising.

Ryan Brown currently lives in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Clemet of Alexandria: Which Rich Man Will Be Saved?
( The book is diveded into 42 chapters which will be indicated after the quotations) clement begins with a warning never to flatter the rich, admiring their wealth and power, since his behavior will only enhance their vanity and may also drive them to despair if they come across Christ's parable of the camel and the ear of a neddle (Mk 10, 25) As a consequence they will use their riches to enjoy themselves sinfully as long as they can in this world, since they are convinced that eternal damnation will follow in the other anyway (1,2).

Clement hopes to enlighten and save them by analysing Christ's allegory and its counterpart, the story of the good Samaritan (Lk 10,29). Wealth in itself, he concludes, is not sinful nor is poverty in itself a safeguard to salvation. In both cases the individual must keep God's commandments and not get lost in temporal issues and sinful distractions. In fact, the rich are given a marvelous opportunity to do many good works with their wealth. Indeed, they are obliged to do so if they want to be saved. the poor, on the other hand, must see their poverty as a way to salvation which they accept for a higher purpose. Poverty for the sake of pverty is no virtue. "If somebody manages not to take advantage of the possibilities of wealth and remain moderate and wise and only seeks God and breathes the spirit of God and walks in the community of God, he will stand before God's commandments as a poor man, free, undefeated healthy, not violated by his possessions.  But if this is not the case, a camel will easier pass through the ear of a needle than  a rich man will enter the kingdom of God" (26).

The parable of the good Samaritan who obviously was a rich man corroborates Christ's acceptance of the virtuous rich man. Neither the priest nor the pious laymen of the orthodox persuasion "love their neighbor as themselves." They pay no attention to the wounded man in the ditch, but the heterodox Samaritan takes care of him and uses his own wealth to rescue and heal the wounded and destitute stranger by the wayside. Christ admonishes us: "Go and do the same!" Love, he wants to tell us, is the source of all good deeds. (28)

Clement reveals his Greek bachground when he describes our way to salvation as an athletic competition in an Olympic arena:  " . . .an individual who  owns many worldly goods must not declare himself from the very beginning excluded from the victory trophies of our Savior . . . nor may he hope to gain the  wreath of eternal life without fighting, without dust and sweat. . . . On the contrary, he will joyfully subit to the Logos  as the trainer of the competition and Christ as the referee. . . His prescibed diet of food and drink should be the New Testament of our Lord, his exercises should be the commandments, and his decorations the marvelous virtues of love, faith, and hope, the  recognition of truth, goodness, mildness, compassion, chastity, so that at the sound of the last trumpet which announcec the end of the race. . . and of the track of life he can stand before the referee as a winner and will be considered worthy of the heavenly fatherland to which he will return decorated with the wreaths of victory and received by the herald call of the angels" (3).
