paragraph: Glusiano de Casate

paragraph: Comes Glusiano de Casate ("Latin": Comes Glusianus de Casate; "Italian": Cosmo or Cosimo Giussiano; born in Milan, date unknown; died in Rome, 8 April 1287) was an Italian ecclesiastical lawyer and Roman Catholic Cardinal. He came from an important family, "de magno sanguine natus" (born from high blood), as his funeral monument states. He was learned in the law, "tu sapiens pectus iuris vexilla ferebas."

paragraph: He was Archdeacon of the Church of Milan.

paragraph: Section::::The Roman Curia.

paragraph: He was brought to Rome where he became a papal Chaplain and, under Pope Nicholas III, served in the papal Chancery as "Auditor sacri palatii" (later termed "Auditor of the Rota"). The Vice-Chancellor, the effective head of the papal Secretariat, and Comes' superior from 1276 to 1288 was Pietro Peregrosso of Milan, and it is not an unreasonable conjecture that he was the original patron of Comes de Casate.

paragraph: He was one of the officials, along with Pietro Peregrosso, who were charged by Nicholas III in 1279 with producing the finished version of "Exiit qui seminat", the papal Bull which granted a favorable constitution to the Franciscan Order.

paragraph: Section::::Cardinalate.

paragraph: Comes de Casato was named a cardinal-priest by Pope Martin IV in the Consistory of 12 April 1281 and assigned the titular church of SS. Pietro e Marcellino in Rome. He was appointed an ecclesiastical examiner of canonical validity and personal worthiness by Pope Martin in the final stages of the long-running case of the election of an Abbot of the monastery of S. Benedetto de Padolirone in the diocese of Mantua. Although the bull had been signed on 14 January 1285 it had not yet received the "bulla" (lead seal) when Pope Martin died on 28 March 1285, and had to wait for Pope Honorius IV to order his seal to be affixed. He was also appointed the Auditor (judge) in the case of the double election of a bishop of Nevers. The two candidates were persuaded to spontaneously and freely resign their elections into the hands of the Pope. The matter of the vacancy in the bishopric came to Honorius IV after the death of Martin IV, and he appointed his chaplain, Egidius de Castelleto. Cardinal Comes de Casate was also appointed Auditor by Pope Martin IV in a lawsuit over the income of a prebend in the Cathedral of Paris between one of the Canons and the Monastery of S. Victor; he finally issued a judgment on 31 August 1285, and Pope Honorius IV finally confirmed it on 22 October. It took another mandate from the Pope, however, to get the verdict obeyed. Cardinal Comes was also appointed, on 31 July 1285, to serve as Auditor in the dispute between the Bishop of Poitiers and the monastery of Aureevallis. He had also been appointed that Summer to examine the election of a new Abbot of Monte Cassino, Thomas the Dean of the monastery, which was approved on his recommendation by Pope Honorius on 28 September 1285.

paragraph: Cardinal Comes was one of fourteen cardinals who were present in Consistory on 17 September 1285, when the "Constitution for the Organization of the Kingdom of Sicily" was promulgated. This document was made necessary by the disastrous events which had ruined the control of the Roman Church over the island of Sicily and loosened its grip on southern Italy. King Charles I of Anjou had suffered disastrous losses in the rising called the Sicilian Vespers in the Spring of 1282; he had died on 7 January 1285, with Sicily in the hands of Peter III of Aragon. The entire island of Sicily had been excommunicated and laid under interdict by Pope Martin IV, ever the compliant friend and abettor of King Charles. But there is a certain unreality about the whole occasion of the issue of the Constitution. The Pope had no means at all to enforce his decrees, which had the form of an overlord dictating to a villain, and overlord who had not fulfilled his feudal duties to his vassals. Martin IV had been a major part of the Sicilian problem, and Honorius IV's response provided rhetoric, but no solution to the Church's problems.

paragraph: Section::::Reign of Pope Honorius IV (1285-1287).

paragraph: At the end of 1285 Cardinal Comes was again appointed Examiner of Bishops in the case of the Bishop of Utica (Uzès) in Aquitaine, which was approved by Pope Honorius on 4 January 1286. He also participated in the case of the Bishop-elect of Fossombrone, which was approved on 28 February 1286; that of Chieti, approved on 31 March; that of Ascoli Piceno on 13 December 1285; that of Lamego in Spain, approved on 25 May 1286; that of Chioggia, which was still being litigated on 17 June 1286 and not concluded until 11 January 1287; and that of Archbishop-elect Andrea of Florence. He was Auditor in the famous case of the many English benefices of Tedisio de Camilla, relative of Pope Adrian V, which Archbishop John Peckham was trying to curtail. He was also appointed Auditor in the case of the election of the abbot of S. Maria in Pinerolo, and the election of an abbess at S. Croix in Poitiers.

paragraph: Section::::The Conclave of 1287.

paragraph: Pope Honorius IV (Giacomo Savelli) died in his palace next to the Church and Monastery of Santa Sabina on the Aventine Hill on Holy Thursday, 3 April 1287. There were sixteen cardinals at the time of the Pope's death. It was a year of pestilence, however, and many of the cardinals were ill. Six of them died. One of the first to depart, and he may not even have been present at the opening of the Conclave, was Cardinal Comes Glusiano de Casate. He died and was buried on 8 April 1287, as his funeral inscription bears witness. He was buried in the Lateran Basilica, though his tomb and many others suffered during the two large fires in the basilica in 1307 and 1361, as well as the major alterations carried out under Borromini in the 17th century, and under instructions of Leo XIII in the 19th.

paragraph: Tarik Black (born February 10, 1998) is an American football wide receiver for the Michigan Wolverines.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Black attended Cheshire Academy in Cheshire, Connecticut. He was a four-star recruit ranked as the No. 81 high school player in the country by ESPN. He was also rated as the top recruit in Connecticut and was invited to play in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl.

paragraph: Black received scholarship offers from Auburn and Alabama, among others. In December 2016, in a Facebook live broadcast, he committed to play college football at the University of Michigan.

paragraph: Section::::College career.

paragraph: Black enrolled early at Michigan in January 2017. He participated in Michigan's spring practice where he impressed observers.

paragraph: On September 2, 2017, Black started at wide receiver as a true freshman in Michigan's season opener against Florida. He scored a touchdown on his first collegiate reception and had two receptions for 83 yards in the game. During the fourth quarter of the Wolverine's third game of the season against Air Force, Black was injured and left with a broken left foot. At the time of his injury, he led the team in receiving yards. He did not return for the rest of the season, finishing with 11 catches for 149 yards and one touchdown in three games.

paragraph: Just before the start of his sophomore season in 2018, Black suffered another, similar injury, this time fracturing his right foot.

paragraph: Nicolas James Lentz (born December 28, 1989) is a Major League Baseball (MLB) umpire. He made his debut on April 20, 2016, in Miami. He wears number 59, which was most recently worn by former umpire Jon Byrne.

paragraph: During the 2016 season, Lentz umpired 105 MLB games, 24 as the home plate umpire. Lentz's first MLB ejection came on May 17, 2017, when he ejected St. Louis Cardinals' manager Mike Matheny. In July 2017, Lentz was the first base umpire for the Triple-A All-Star Game. He umpired 109 MLB games during the 2017 season, 25 behind the plate.

paragraph: On August 31, 2018, Lentz ejected New York Yankees' manager Aaron Boone. Boone, who had been in the dugout, was displeased with a strike call Lentz made during a Gleyber Torres at bat. Boone came on to the field and became quite animated, including crouching behind home plate in a catcher's stance, apparently demonstrating to Lentz the difference between balls and strikes.

paragraph: Gottlieb Welté

paragraph: Christian Gottlieb Welté (3 December 1745/49 – 17 December 1792) was an etcher and landscape painter from Mainz, Germany.

paragraph: His works, accomplished mostly in small format, represent rococo and transition to early classicism. In Estonia, he painted figural staffages on large Põltsamaa landscapes and depicted Estonian peasants in the 1780s; in Mainz and Frankfurt-am-Main he was known mostly as an etcher and a landscapist. Welté was a typical artist of the Enlightenment – pensive, developing and nonconformist.

paragraph: He worked in Estonia in the late 18th century at the Põltsamaa Castle and Põltsamaa porcelain manufacture (1781-1784), then as a homeschool teacher in the Võisiku manor (1785-1788) and spent his last years at the Lohu manor in the present-day Kohila Parish, Rapla County, where he died in 1792.

paragraph: His most important work, the illusionist fresco wall paintings in the hall of the Lohu manor covering 27,6 m², were discovered in the 1960s under the Grisaille pictorial fresco wall papers on the theme of Don Quixote, printed by "Jacquemart & Bénard" in Paris, France.

paragraph: Francisco de Holanda

paragraph: Francisco de Holanda (originally "Francisco d'Olanda;" 6 September 1517 – 19 June 1585) was a Portuguese court painter, architect, and sculptor for King João III of Portugal, and later for Sebastian of Portugal. He is considered to be one of the most important figures of the Portuguese Renaissance. Francisco was also an essayist, architect and historian. He represented the intelligible reality of the Holy Trinity through a "hypothetical" syntax of geometrical figures. He insisted on the contrast between the ideal plane, the incorporeal form and the "imperfect copy in the terrestrial zone". His visual language demonstrated a mixture of Neoplatonism, Christian Kabbalah and finally Lullism. In education, Francisco de Holanda emphasized mathematics and geometry, subsequently anticipating Clavius's reforms of the late 16th century. Sylvie Deswarte said that "Francisco de Holanda gives a privileged place to cosmography and astrology in the education of the painter. On par with geometry, mathematics and perspective, he recommended them [...] in order to reach the heavens in the hope of one day arriving to the Empyrean and realizing celestial works."

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Francisco de Holanda was born in Lisbon, Portugal on 6 September 1517, and began his career as an illuminator at the age of 20. His father, António de Holanda, was also a royal illuminator. Francisco studied in Italy between 1538 and 1547, where he frequented the circle of Vittoria Colonna, one of the notables of the Italian Renaissance. Colonna provided him with access to some of the greatest artists of the period such as Parmigianino, Giambologna, and most importantly, Michelangelo, who introduced him to Classicism.

paragraph: At the age of 30, he returned to Portugal and obtained various commissions from the reigning King of Portugal, the Cardinal-Archbishop of Évora, and later from King John III (1521-1557) and King Sebastian (1568-1578). Francisco died in Lisbon, Portugal on June 19, 1585, at the age of 68.

paragraph: Section::::Aesthetic values.

paragraph: Francisco de Holanda embraced the aesthetic values of the Renaissance. His paintings strongly expressed the desire to stimulate personal originality and provide a link between nature (the pure mirror of the Creator) and the ancients - immortal masters of greatness, symmetry, perfection and decorum. Most of these objectives can be seen in his three-part treatise on the nature of art, "On Ancient Painting" ("Da Pintura Antiga"), 1548. The second part of this treatise contains four dialogues, supposedly with Michelangelo. Here, his passion for Classicism was brought to the fore, as he communicated the essence of the work of Michelangelo and of the contemporary artistic movement in Rome.

paragraph: Francisco distinguished himself through his series of drawings at the command of the Portuguese king, João III. These drawings were devoted to the Antiquities of Italy and were sketched between 1540 and 1547, through his studies on the revival of the archaeological heritage of Rome and on Italian art in the first half of the 16th century.

paragraph: Francisco was the creator of the facade of the Church of Our Lady of Grace ("Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Graça") in Évora. He also painted some portraits, not all of which survived.

paragraph: Francisco wrote the first essay on urbanism, in the Iberian Peninsula, "On the construction lacking to the city of Lisbon" ("Da fábrica que falece à cidade de Lisboa ") and also created the structures of "De aetatibus mundi imagines" and "Antigualhas".

paragraph: Section::::Francisco's works.

paragraph: Lorenzo Mongiardino

paragraph: Lorenzo "Renzo" Mongiardino (; 12 May 1916 – 16 January 1998) was an Italian architect, interior designer and production designer. He was nominated for two Academy Awards in the category Best Art Direction.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: In 1936, Renzo Mongiardino moved from Genoa to Milan to study architecture; in 1942, he graduated from the Politecnico di Milano, together with Giò Ponti.

paragraph: Beginning in 1944, Mongiardino collaborated with the design magazine "Domus", writing many articles. During this period he also began his multifaceted career, focusing primarily on the creation of residential and theatre environments.

paragraph: In the early fifties, Mongiardino began to establish himself as an architect, working from his home and studio in central Milan, on the elegant Via Bianca Maria.

paragraph: Mongiardino was responsible for creating some of the most important and enchanting houses of the second half of twentieth century, created for an international and prestigious clientele of cultured collectors and entrepreneurs including Daylesford House in Gloucestershire for Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza, ands interiors for Aristotle Onassis, Gianni Agnelli and Marella Agnelli, Lee Radziwill and Stanisław Albrecht Radziwiłł, Gianni Versace, Edmond Safra and Lily Safra, Princess Firyal of Jordan, Valentino Garavani, the Rothschild family and the Hearst family. Also starting in the late fifties Mongiardino began his career as “production designer” in Theatre and Cinema together with Franco Zeffirelli, Peter Hall, Giancarlo Menotti and Raymond Rouleau.

paragraph: In 1993, Rizzoli published “Roomscapes”, a lessons-learned monograph about Mongiardino in which revealed some of his standards of interior design, without forgetting his irreplaceable craftsmen and assistants able to transform his aesthetic dreams into reality; united to his “elective affinity that arrives after years of cooperation and in continuous exercise of affectionate understanding”.

paragraph: After the arson of theatre "La Fenice" in 1996, Gae Aulenti assigned Mongiardino the project for the interior theatre refurbishment, a project which he was not able to complete.

paragraph: Mongiardino died in Milan on 16 January 1998.

paragraph: Section::::Style.

paragraph: The years of Mongiardino’s debut are those of the Modern Movement, but he resisted this new wave, fearing its effects, and perceiving an intrinsic lack of feeling. Instinct took him elsewhere, to seek the harmony of the antique that draws on and re-invents itself in a completely new way. The private nature of his projects and their nature, in the sense that they are an ends unto themselves, and will most likely not survive beyond the lives of their owners, brings with it the risk that Mongiardino’s name may not correspond to anything definite, but true only as evocation of the rich and famous world.

paragraph: There are in fact several public works of Mongiardino, including two buildings built in Milan (in Via Donizetti and in via Borgonuovo), the restoration of several important hotels (the lobby bar at The Carlyle in New York, The Hotel Kulm in St. Moritz, The Plaza in Rome), as well as the restaurant ("Da Giacomo" in Milan) and several shops, including Sabbadini Jewelers on Milan's Via Montenapoleone. But these works are the exception that the primary focus of Mongiardino’s research, which was addressed almost exclusively to the preparation of domestic spaces, through a careful combination of the search for harmonious proportions and a love for the meticulous execution of every detail.

paragraph: Before Mongiardino, houses were built in a particular historical style. Mongiardino revolutionized this methodology. He writes: "The houses are furnished, are created considering the structure, the skeleton, the intrinsic beauty, when there is. We believe we can invent a new house, a universal model that could be replicated identically in Naples as in Stockholm. But the house is not an invention, it is always the same shelter that man needs because he is tired, because he's hungry, because he has to sleep. Older houses were built on the extent of these practical needs, they expressed the authenticity of the goods and used the same limits imposed by available materials and technologies called for the pursuit of beauty in function. Skilled creator of spectacular spaces, he has been able to juxtapose ordinary objects and antiques, in a masterly game of fabrics or painted, and sculptured panels and a range of trompe l'œil, whereby he obtained masterpieces with poor materials.

paragraph: Fundamental in his work, however, is the determination of space, the search for a balance of proportions that must precede the decoration. Precisely this is his book "Roomscapes”. Only later Mongiardino inserted, with the sensitivity set designer, fakes and real objects presented without any hierarchy of values in a setting in which each subject was taking its natural space.

paragraph: Norman Oliver Lash (1908–1960) a British police officer seconded to the Jordanian Arab Legion. On 15 May 1948, Brigadier Norman Lash was handed the field command of the operations of the Arab Legion in Palestine.

paragraph: He appointed Abdullah el Tell to lead the offensive on Jerusalem during the 1948 Palestine war, the war for which he was criticised by many British officials for being the field commander of an Arab army. A representative of the British chief of staff, described Glubb Pasha, and his two senior aids, Norman Lash and Ronald Broadhurst as "Soldiers of fortune of British nationality" during the 1948 war.

paragraph: Ironically, he was also criticised by Arab officers, as being more of a politician than a military leader.

paragraph: He negotiated the Jordanian-Israeli armistice agreement, that resulted in what came to be known as the green line.

paragraph: Norman Lash reached the rank of Major General, and was retired from Jordan's Arab Legion on 1 April 1951. He was replaced by Brigadier Sam Sidney Arthur Cooke of the Lincolnshire Regiment. According to Ma'an Abu Nawwar, an Arab officer in the Arab Legion Norman Lash had less experience as a soldier, compared to his successor Cooke.

paragraph: Tang Gao

paragraph: Tang Gao (唐皋，1469–1526) was born in Yansi town (巖寺鎮), She county (歙縣), Huizhou (徽州府), South Zhili (南直隸), in Ming China. Tang Gao became the Zhuangyuan, or Number One Scholar (狀元) in the ninth year (1514) of the Zhengde Emperor's (正德皇帝) reign during the Ming Dynasty. He styled himself as Shouzhi (守之), Xin’an (心庵), and Ziyang hermit (紫陽山人).

paragraph: Due to his premature death, the loss of his biography and epitaph, and the fact that much of his early life was not documented, scholars have been unable put together a detailed summary of his life.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Tang Gao was born into an educated and aristocratic family within a well-established Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianist (程朱理學) academic tradition. Little is known about his early life, but at some point his family lost much of their wealth and he led a meager lifestyle during early adulthood. Despite failing the imperial examinations (科舉) multiple times he eventually passed and started his career as an Imperial Historian at the Hanlin Academy (翰林院修撰兼修國史). He then became an expositor of the academy (翰林院侍講學士兼經筵講官) but died unexpectedly in 1526 aged 58. His 12-year political career, though relatively short, was during the transition from the Zhengde Emperor (正德皇帝) to the Jiajing Emperor's (嘉靖皇帝) reign during the Ming Dynasty, and was a period of great change to politics, the economy, academic life, and literature.

paragraph: Section::::Political activities.

paragraph: Tang Gao, who had a straightforward attitude and was mature in nature, was generally considered to be a future Prime Minister (宰輔). At the beginning of his official life, he had already adopted the view that the government statutes (紀綱) should be strengthened. In the twelfth year of Zhengde Emperor (1517), as the vice examiner of the metropolitan examination (會試同考官), he appointed many talented people. When the Zhengde Emperor died, he served as an imperial envoy abroad to Korea (欽差朝鮮正使) and issued the Imperial Edict of the Ascent to the Throne of the Jiajing Emperor (登極改元詔), which was the peak of his political career. During his visit to Joseon (李氏朝鮮), he was acclaimed as the most righteous man in the world by the King and officials there, due to his discipline and honesty. After he returned to China, Tang Gao wanted to realize his aspirations, and wrote a letter depicting the employment problems of the Jiajing Emperor. In the “Great Rites Controversy”(“大禮議事件”), he mediated between the two groups, and expressed political foresight, which angered the Emperor. In the fourth year of Jiajing Emperor, “The Factual Record of Ming Emperor Wu Zong”(《明武宗實錄》) was finished. As a historian, he made a significant contribution to the historiography of the Ming Dynasty.

paragraph: Section::::Confucianism.

paragraph: Tang Gao once pursued his studies in Ziyang Academy (紫陽書院), the Prefectural School (府學) of Huizhou, where the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism was deeply rooted. He advocated pragmatism, focused on the ways of the world and the heart of humans, so that his early works all agreed with the concept of Neo-Confucianism. However, in his late years, he turned to WangYangming’s Idealistic Theories (陽明心學), and his articles then combined both the Cheng-zhu School and the Idealistic School. Unlike his early poems and essays, which regarded Taoism (道教)as heresy, his late works often cited Buddhist Scriptures (佛典). The representative work of the convergence of the three religions (三教合一) entitled “Xing-Ming-Gui-Zhi”(《性命圭旨》) was circulated.

paragraph: Section::::Literature.

paragraph: As Tang Gao advocated pragmatism, his works focused on the documentary form. Influenced by the “Former Seven Scholars”(“前七子”), his writing style tended to revert to the old ways. The several existing Yue Fu (樂府詩) drafted by him all seemed extraordinary with a trace of Yang Weizhen’s (楊維楨) style. The poems were once selected into Qian Qianyi (錢謙益)’s “Lie-Chao-Shi-Ji”(《列朝詩集》), which represented his retroactive trend. He especially admired Li Mengyang (李夢陽) and was also on good terms with some retroactive scholars like Wang Jiusi (王九思). During his diplomatic mission, he versified together with some civil officials of Joseon Dynasty such as Li Xing (李荇), and introduced the opinions of the"Former Seven Scholars" such as Li Mengyang from the official level. The “Xin-Si-Huang-Hua-Ji”(《辛巳皇華集》) versification and the direct result—the spread of Li Mengyang’s poetry eastwards, had a far-reaching effect on the literary innovation in the mid and late period of the Joseon Dynasty.

paragraph: In addition, several of his travel poems carried a style of Xie Lingyun (謝靈運)’s scenic poems. Among them, some particular ones also contained the style of Tang Yin (唐寅)’s Wu School. His poetic creation drew widely from others’ strong points and appealed to both refined and popular taste. This was quite similar to that of his good friend Yang Shen (楊慎).

paragraph: Section::::Wife and Sons.

paragraph: Tang Gao led a short life, which made many scholars feel that he had not fulfilled himself. Tang Gao’s wife Yan (閻氏) left a single poem, with the prosperous charm of the Tang Dynasty. His eldest grandson Tang Rulong (唐汝龍) received a good education from Tang Gao, studied Li Bai (李白)’s poetic style and was highly appreciated by Qian Qianyi. He attempted the imperial examinations several times but was unsuccessful and grew depressed.

paragraph: Dave Lewis (Northern Irish musician)

paragraph: Dave Lewis (born 18 February 1951) is a singer-songwriter and musician from Northern Ireland. He was a member of the bands Method, Andwella's Dream, and Andwella.

paragraph: Section::::Personal background.

paragraph: David Llewellyn Lewis was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. He started writing and performing songs during his childhood. By the time he was 12, his mother was getting him guest spots in Belfast social clubs and bars at a time when people like comedian Frank Carson were headlining. Having mastered both guitar and piano, he left school at 15 and starting working in Belfast's main music shop Crymbals, which was the epicentre of the Belfast music scene at that time.

paragraph: Section::::Professional background.

paragraph: Section::::Professional background.:Band career.

paragraph: At 16, Lewis joined his first band the Method managed by George Mechan. Method were a 5 piece soul band who were becoming popular in Dublin and fans around that time included Phil Lynott from the band Skid Row. A guitarist named Gary Moore (who was 16 at the time) stood in for Dave for a few weeks while he was in hospital and subsequently joined Skid Row.

paragraph: The Method changed their name to Andwella's Dream after moving to London in 1968. They were signed to a new management and recording company Reflection Records, headed by Andrew Cameron Miller. In 1969 the band released their first album "Love and Poetry" (CBS) with all the songs penned by Dave Lewis before his 18th birthday. The album did not achieve wide recognition but is featured in the Record Collector's Book: 100 Greatest Psychedelic Records. After changing the name again to simply Andwella the band released two more albums; World's End (1970) and People's People (1971). Lewis wrote all the songs on the Andwella albums with the exception of the "World's End Theme Part 1", which was written and arranged by Bobby Scott of "He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother" and "Taste of Honey" fame. During this period Lewis also made a private pressing of 500 copies of a promotional album in 1970 entitled "The Songs of David Lewis" which was never intended for general release, it was simply a vehicle to showcase his songs.

paragraph: Section::::Professional background.:Solo career.

paragraph: After Andwella split up Lewis pursued a solo career as a singer-songwriter. In May 1975 he supported Don McLean at a concert in London's Hyde Park in front of an audience of 85,000. That same year, he also toured with Fairport Convention playing to packed audiences all over the UK. During 1975 Dave also wrote a hit song for Demis Roussos; "Happy To Be on an Island in the Sun", the song shot to No.1 all over Europe and went platinum.

paragraph: Also in the 1970s Lewis released two solo albums – "From Time to Time" (Polydor 1976) co-produced by Chris Rainbow who also did back-up vocals, and engineered by Steve Lillywhite, and "A Collection of Short Dreams" (Polydor 1978). Around this time Lewis formed the Dave Lewis Band, first with the line up of Felix Krish (bass), Dave Rose (keyboards) and Preston Heyman (drums), the line-up later changed to Rob Townsend (drums), Charlie McCracken (bass) and Derek Beauchemin (keyboards).

paragraph: In the 1980s Lewis took a sabbatical from performing and touring and went travelling, on his return to London he reinvented himself as a singer-pianist after winning a competition run by the London Evening Standard to find a resident entertainer for new West End restaurant and cocktail bar Smollenskys Balloon. He went on to play for over 14 years at Smollensky's Balloon and Smollensky's on the Strand.

paragraph: In recent years Lewis has performed at venues all over the world including Ireland, Spain, the Caribbean and Japan where he has a long-standing fan base dating back to his days with Andwella. In 2004 Lewis performed at two Japanese concerts hosted by Vinyl Japan at the Club 251 in Tokyo with a specially created band "Tokyo Andwella"(headed by musician Koji Wakui). The band spent weeks preparing and they performed to packed audiences.

paragraph: In 2005 ones of Lewis's songs "Whole Lotta Something Goin On" (played by saxophonist Raphael Ravenscroft) was sampled on a No. 1 US Rap hit "Feel It in the Air" by Beanie Sigel (Rocafella Records). Later that same year a chance meeting with Van Morrison led to Dave performing on Morrison's 2005 album Magic Time. Lewis also opened a show for Morrison in Belfast at the Ulster Hall that same year.

paragraph: Lewis continues to write songs and can currently be seen performing at venues in London.

paragraph: Marda Vanne

paragraph: Marda "Scrappy" Vanne (born Margaretha van Hulsteyn) (27 Sep 1896 – 27 April 1970) was a South African actress who found fame in London.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Margaretha was born in Pretoria, South Africa to Sir Willem and Lady van Hulsteyn. Willem was born in the Netherlands in 1865 and emigrated to South Africa at the age of fifteen. He became a leading lawyer in Johannesburg and later a member of the South African Parliament for many years. During the South African War, he became an advisor to Lord Milner, the Governor of the Cape Colony, and was knighted by King Edward VII in 1902.

paragraph: She was briefly married to Johannes Gerhardus "Hans" Strijdom, but divorced within a year. Strijdom later went on to become Prime Minister of South Africa from 1954 until 1958.

paragraph: In 1914, Marda met Isaac Rosenberg, who was on a visit to South Africa, in Cape Town. He took a shine to her and drew a charcoal sketch of her. He also gave her a copy of his poem "If You Are Fire, and I Am Fire" and wrote a number of passionate love-poems at the time, which seem to have been inspired by her.

paragraph: Section::::London.

paragraph: Marda Vanne moved to London in 1918 to build on her acting career and studied speech training and drama under Elsie Fogerty at the Central School of Speech and Drama, then based at the Royal Albert Hall, London. After graduating she met director Basil Dean who recognised her talent and she had a successful career in the West End. She also performed on Broadway in Noël Coward's "Easy Virtue" (1925), directed by Dean, and "Many Waters" (1929) by Monckton Hoffe.

paragraph: Marda became a good friend of Alec Waugh, the brother of Evelyn Waugh. Alec noted in one of his books that Marda tended to be cast in supporting roles. He suggested that it was because she "lacked sex appeal on stage. ... She lacked lightness. She did not look embraceable. I pictured her in more emotional roles, as a mature woman." He wrote that although she had several affairs with men, her main interest was women.

paragraph: John Gielgud also became a good friend of Marda's and mentions her in his writings.

paragraph: Section::::South African company.

paragraph: In London, she formed a professional and personal partnership with actress Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies that lasted until her death in 1970. The couple founded a theatre company in South Africa, at the outbreak of World War II, when most of the London theatres were dark. They toured the provinces, including appearances at the Hoffmeyer Theatre in Cape Town. There they performed their production of "Twelfth Night" in which Marda played Maria and Gwen played Olivia. They also produced and acted in the play "Quality Street" by James Barrie. They played 44 towns in fifteen weeks and made a small profit. Vanne also appeared as Madame Arcati in a production of "Blythe Spirit" in Johannesburg, and she and Gwen brought their production of "The Merry Wives of Windsor" to the Alhambra Theatre in Cape Town in 1945.

paragraph: In 1950, Marda directed an Afrikaans translation of "Grumpy", by Horace Hodges and T. Wigney Percyval called "Oupa Brompie" for the National Theatre Organisation (NTO) of South Africa.

paragraph: They produced "The Dam" by South African writer Guy Butler in 1952, which the author criticised for portraying the Coloured (mixed-race) characters as caricatures.

paragraph: Vanne gained British Citizenship in 1965. She died of cancer in 1970.
