Moseley Park and Pool is part of the former estate of Moseley Hall (grade 2 listed), which was rebuilt in 1792-6 for John Taylor, a Birmingham manufacturer. The Hall had been burnt out in the Birmingham Riots of 1791 when 'the mob' rampaged around Birmingham setting fire to the residences of many landowners.
Besides the rebuilt and enlarged Hall, Taylor commissioned a plan for the parkland from Humphry Repton who described himself as a landscape gardener, the first person to do so. Taylor was one of the founders of Taylors and Lloyd's Bank, today Lloyds.
The Hall was let for much of the 19th century and the Moseley Hall estate started to be broken up for housing development, initially with Park Hill in 1865. In 1896 the parkland was divided into two by the cutting of Salisbury Road (named after the then Prime Minister Lord Salisbury) joining Moseley with Edgbaston. The portion comprising the present Park was thus separated from the residual land surrounding the Hall, which was sold to Richard Cadbury who subsequently donated it to the City of Birmingham as a children's convalescent hospital. It remains a hospital to this day.
Chantry Road was cut in 1890 and there were plans afoot to drain the lake and divide the land further for more roads and houses. However a group of local gentlemen with houses in Salisbury and Chantry Roads opposed these plans and took out a 40 year lease from The Taylor Estates on what is now The Park. They founded The Moseley Park and Pool Company Ltd. in 1898 to protect the land from future development.
New tree planting was commenced and firm paths were constructed around the Pool and from the entrance gate in Alcester Road. alongside the newly built Victoria Parade of shops. Further entrance gates were placed in Salisbury Road and Chantry Road.
The Park was formally opened by Mr Austen Chamberlain MP on September 29th1899. The Park and Pool Co. was managed by unpaid directors and access to the Park was for key holders and their households on payment of a small annual subscription, initially one guinea (£1.05). The lease on the Park was later extended and the freehold was purchased from the Taylor Estates in 1958.
In 2006 the limited company was converted to a charitable trust (The Moseley Park and Pool Trust, reg. no. 1115870) now managed by a board of volunteer trustees.
The original key
Before the Park and Pool lands were transferred into a charitable trust it was held by a private company. Those early founders of the company lived in Moseley and each held shares, usually ten or twenty only, which by tradition were transferred at their face value of £1 per share when a shareholder sold their Moseley property.
In those early days subscribers to the Park and Pool were issued with a big old key like the one illustrated here which operated the three entrance gates.
That key was not changed for many, many years. Perhaps a century. Subscribers were on trust to pay their annual dues or return their key. Most did, some did not. Like the shares these keys often passed with a neighbouring property.
This key was left in a house in Chantry Road backing on to the Park and Pool when the property passed into its current ownership some twenty years ago.

Episode 16: Dunayevskaya's Life and & Legacy––Interview with Anne Jaclard
The co-hosts interview Anne Jaclard, who worked with Dunayevskaya for 22 years, as a political colleague and as an occasional secretary, and who now serves as MHI's organizational secretary. They discuss Dunayevskaya's childhood years in Ukraine and Chicago; her activities as a young adult with African-American groups and as a Trotskyist; her work with Trotsky in Mexico; and her break from Trotsky and development of state-capitalist theory. The discussion then turns to Dunayevskaya's collaboration with, and subsequent break from, CLR James, and her development of the philosophy of Marxist-Humanism. Jaclard provides brief accounts––intertwined with personal recollections and vignettes––of how Dunayevskaya's major writings contribute to revolutionary theory and to our understanding of Marx's Marxism and the Hegelian dialectic.
This episode's current-events segment, which provides a post-mortem on Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign, responds to Zack Beauchamp's recent analysis of the import of Sanders' failure. Was it really "Marxist political strategy" that failed, as Beauchamp contends?

Vann Seawell says:
Excellent episode all around. A special shout out to Anne for sharing her personal reminiscences about working with RD. These experiences bring out the humanism in Marxist-Humanism and help further develop the theory-practice dialectic for all of us. MHI should consider making Anne a regular member of the pod.
David Logan O'Hara says:
Fantastic episode. You touch on that, towards the end of her time as Trotsky's secretary, she became upset over her disagreement with him about the nature of the Soviet economy. Years ago, and I can't for the life of me remember where, I believe I read that Trotsky began do doubt his own line on the matter in his final days. Is there any chance you know something about this, or did I simply imagine it? Thank you!

Scottsdale toughest in Arizona for photo radar?
SCOTTSDALE - Drivers complain about tough stance used for photo radar tickets in the city.
Scottsdale toughest in Arizona for photo radar? SCOTTSDALE - Drivers complain about tough stance used for photo radar tickets in the city. Check out this story on azcentral.com: http://azc.cc/1S73lHe
Photo enforcement programs are becoming increasingly common, with more than 440 communities using cameras to capture drivers who run red lights, and 140 communities with speed cameras, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

If a driver is not identified, a notice of violation is sent to the owner's address.

An Arizona statute requires that people update their addresses within 10 days of moving.Traffic enforcement camera Sunday, Oct. 25, 2015 at the intersection of McDowell and Scottsdale road in Scottsdale, Ariz. David Kadlubowski / The Republic
If the person doesn't respond to the ticket in 30 days -- either by paying a fine, stating they were not the driver, acknowledging the complaint or attending defensive-driving school -- a process server can attempt to deliver the citation three times in person when there is evidence the driver lives at the address.

In Scottsdale, the city prosecutor's office can pursue "alternative service" as a final effort 60 days after the ticket was first issued. Once a judge grants the alternative service, the process server tapes a copy of the ticket and order to the door and mails a copy via certified mail, Gruler said. According to a June audit report, Scottsdale is the only Arizona municipality that uses alternative service in photo-radar cases.

Scottsdale is the only city to allow process servers to leave tickets at doors
Most other cities have the proecss server deliver the ticket in person
In January, Ann Miller was driving to her church in south Scottsdale when she noticed the familiar flash of a photo-radar camera.
Three months later, Miller came home to find a citation stuck in her back door.
Miller's ticket was delivered on the last day of a 90-day deadline to serve the ticket. Her May court date was three days later, and Miller quickly hired an attorney to appear in court on her behalf.
"If that (ticket) blew off in one of the big dust storms, and I never saw that thing in that back door, my license would have been suspended," she said.
Miller attended traffic-survival school and notified her car insurance company, which plans to raise her rates. The ticket has set her back at least $800, she said.

Across the country, photo enforcement programs are becoming increasingly common, with more than 440 communities using cameras to capture drivers who run red lights and 140 communities with speed-enforcement cameras, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
In Arizona, 10 cities and towns have red-light cameras and 12 communities have speed cameras.
In most cities, drivers with photo-radar fines receive their tickets through the mail and, if they fail to respond, from a process server who attempts to hand-deliver the photo-radar citation in person.

But Scottsdale takes it a step further, using a legal method that allows process servers to -- as a last resort -- mail and leave citations at front doors even if the driver isn't present.
The method, known as "alternative service," has drawn criticism from opponents, who argue it is an unfair method of delivering tickets to drivers who aren't at home and unaware that they have been served. Drivers who don't respond have their licenses suspended.
"We have tons of clients who claim they haven't received the complaint. It is blown off their front door, for example," said Robert Gruler, a Scottsdale-based attorney who represented Miller.
Gruler's firm, R&R Law Group, defends people in photo radar and other cases in Arizona. He said Scottsdale "is by far the most aggressive jurisdiction in the state" for photo enforcement.
A June audit that examined the city's photo-enforcement contract found Scottsdale was the only Arizona municipality using alternative service in photo-radar cases.

Scottsdale -- No. of intersections with fixed cameras: 18 Red-light violation fine: $258 Speeding fine: $258 (can be more depending on speed) Dave Seibert/The Republic
In Arizona, where avoiding the process server is a known strategy for evading ticket fines, public-safety advocates argue that Scottsdale's method is necessary to make sure people who break the law don't avoid the process server and pay their dues.
"Those who choose to dodge service and not pay their fines show a disrespect for not only law enforcement, but also for their law-biding neighbors, families and friends," said Charles Territo, a spokesman for American Traffic Solutions, which provides photo-enforcement services for Scottsdale and many other cities.
Last year, 239 people in the state were killed in speed-related crashes, according to a report by the Arizona Department of Transportation.
Territo said that red-light and speed safety cameras have proven "an effective tool" to change driver behavior and decrease the number of collisions, injuries and fatalities.
People don't like getting a ticket for breaking the law. But in Arizona, "nine out of 10 drivers that receive a violation don't get another," Territo said.
"If a pharmaceutical maker developed a drug that cured nine out of 10 patients, they'd receive the Nobel Prize," he said.
To catch red-light runners and speeders, Scottsdale has photo-radar cameras at 18 intersections, two mobile speed cameras and two portable towers.
Darcy Nichols, photo enforcement-program manager with the Scottsdale Police Department, said technicians review a potential violation twice before sending it to the Police Department to identify the driver.
If the department identifies the driver, a citation is sent by U.S. mail to the registered car owner's address on file with the Motor Vehicle Division in Arizona.
If a driver is not identified, a notice of violation is sent to the owner's address. The owner has the opportunity to identify the driver and provide that information to police, though they are not obligated. An Arizona statute requires that people update their addresses within 10 days of moving.
If the person doesn't respond to the ticket in 30 days -- either by paying a fine, stating they were not the driver, acknowledging the complaint or attending defensive-driving school -- a process server can attempt to deliver the citation three times in person when there is evidence the driver lives at the address.
The Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure, which govern the procedures for civil cases, including civil traffic charges, say unanswered photo-radar tickets must be dismissed if there is no response within 120 days.
The same rules allow alternative service as an option.
Once a judge grants the alternative service, the process server tapes a copy of the ticket and order to the door and mails a copy via certified mail, Gruler said.
Jaeger Amzallag, 27, said he never received a photo-radar ticket from a speeding incident in March, and his license was suspended.
Amzallag, a Scottsdale resident, said he believes the tickets went to the wrong address.
He missed his court date and the ticket price jumped to $530, he said.
"Instead of just throwing it out like most municipalities, I am thinking the service company just told the court that they stuck it to a door, and then the court suspended my license because I never showed up for a court date I wasn't aware of," he said in an e-mail response to The Republic.
Amzallag said he found out about the ticket after a police officer pulled him over on his motorcycle in September. "He explained that my license is suspended, but did not want to give me a hard time and tow my bike away, then take me to jail," he said.
Amzallag took off work to travel to the Scottsdale courthouse to see a judge about his license suspension. He paid the ticket to get his license reinstated, he said, because he could not afford to be arrested or have his car impounded on a suspended license.
A Republic analysis shows that many Arizona cities charge between $200 and $300 for basic red-light and speeding violations. The cost increases with the driver's speed. The annual revenue can run into the millions of dollars for cities.

Tempe OKs toughest texting and driving law in Arizona
Scottsdale city court collected about $4 million in photo-radar fines and related fees in fiscal 2013-14, according to an audit of the city's photo-enforcement contract.
After recovering direct costs for the photo-enforcement program, the city's general fund netted about $437,000 in revenue that year, the audit found. The general fund, which pays for basic city services, tallied $250.3 million that year.
Court Administrator Julie Dybas noted that Scottsdale City Court has little involvement in the city's photo enforcement program, and only rules on cases that come before the court.
People who feel they weren't properly served under the Arizona Rules of Court can state their reasons in court during oral arguments, Dybas said.
Scottsdale City Prosecutor Caron Close said the office requests the alternative service "when appropriate to do so" -- after the city has mailed out a notice and sent a process server to their residence "multiple times."
"Our goal is to get notice to the defendant of the outstanding ticket to allow them to respond to or handle the ticket as they see fit," she said by e-mail.
But Gruler argued that it is another example of a city cracking down on drivers to boost its coffers.
"It may not be that the city court is doing it on purpose," Gruler said. "But photo radar is a big revenue generator. I believe that's why they want to make the process more difficult."
The situation can be cumbersome for winter residents who leave during the summer and return to find their licenses have been suspended, said Ryan Cummings, a lead attorney with R&R Law Group.
Miller said she believes the city's court system shows little leniency for drivers captured on photo-radar cameras. She works for a company that checks employees' driving records every six months.
"Now you're messing with people's lives, and their careers," she said. "Everybody is found guilty, and you can't do a damn thing about it. It's not to protect the public. That's not what happens."

Classic Films: TOKYO STORY
Posted by Michelle Buchman on November 29, 2015
Welcome to a weekly classic movies column here on Nerdist.com. Each week focuses on a different film considered to be essential to the cinema's golden age. Sit back, grab some snacks, and expand your film knowledge with old Hollywood cinema.
Starting out as an assistant in the cinematography department of the Shochiku Film Company, young Yasujirō Ozu set his sights on becoming a filmmaker in 1923. A year of military service kept him away from Shochiku, but he returned as a third assistant director. Another year later, Ozu was promoted to the head of the jidaigeki (or period film) department at Shochiku and directed his first film, Sword of Penitence (now a "lost" film, no copies survived). In 1928, the studio changed focus to making short comedy films. Over the next decade Ozu excelled, making 32 films and receiving praise from critics.
In 1937, Ozu was drafted into the Imperial Japanese Army. He served for two years, but was then re-drafted and called back to the army in 1943 for three additional years. After 1947, Ozu made a string of postwar films. These movies served as social commentary on life in Japan after WWII. He released the first of many movies featuring actress Setsuko Hara, Late Spring, in 1949. Late Spring became the first of three movies known as the "Noriko trilogy." In each film, Hara portrays a young woman named Noriko—although all three films feature a different, distinct Noriko. The films are linked together by the time they take place (postwar Japan) and Noriko's status, she's always portrayed as a single woman.
Setsuko Hara in Tokyo Story.
Hara went on to make six films total with Ozu. Critics and audiences alike refer to her as the director's muse, a source of constant inspiration and ideas for his films. The pair collaborated up until Ozu's death in the early 1960s. Hara went on to make 101 films and then announced her retirement from Japanese cinema in 1962 at just 42 years old. However, Hara and Ozu will forever be remembered for what many consider their masterpiece and one of the greatest films ever made, 1953's Tokyo Story.
Although it was made over 60 years ago, Tokyo Story remains a movie that still resonates strongly with audiences. The plot revolves around an older couple, Shūkichi and Tomi Hirayama, and their five children who are all grown up and living on their own. The couple travels to Tokyo for a visit with their son and daughter along with their widowed daughter-in-law, Noriko, whose husband died in the war. Shūkichi and Tomi's children struggle to fit into their grown-up children's busy lives, often being ignored or set aside. The only one who has time to show them around is poor Noriko, who is now all alone. The plot may seem deceptively simple, but Ozu and his co-writer Kogo Noda take an incredibly complex idea and turn it into something everyone can relate to. All children must grow up, and the the separation between children and their parents as they get older seems unavoidable.
Besides the story, Tokyo Story is well-known for Ozu's distinct visual style. The director was known for placing his cameras at low angles, almost never moving them. In his films, we look up at the characters like a child would. These low camera positions also let us see entire rooms, ceilings, corners and more. He forces us to pay attention to the details often overlooked in Hollywood movies. Additionally, Ozu never cared about the "180 degree" rule in cinema. Instead of filming dialogue with two actors and matching their sight lines, Ozu often filmed the speakers head-on instead. He wasn't concerned with making it look like the characters were talking to each other, the director wanted audiences to focus on the individual themselves.
Tokyo Story was released in Japan in 1953, but did not receive a theatrical run in the United States until 1972. Americans may have been introduced to Ozu late, but they quickly recognized his important contributions to the world of cinema. The director is frequently cited as one of the best of all time by critics and filmmakers alike. In particular, Tokyo Story continues to be showered with love and critical praise. The movie has appeared several times on the British Film Institute's poll of "the greatest films" published every 10 years in Sight & Sound. In the magazine's most recent 2012 poll, Tokyo Story was named the #3 greatest film overall and named #1 in the poll of directors. Ozu's film endures, letting a whole new generation know that time marches on, change is inevitable.
Film Facts
Directors Richard Ayoade (Submarine, The Double), Mike Leigh (Happy-Go-Lucky), and Jim Jarmusch (Only Lovers Left Alive) cite Tokyo Story as one of their top 10 favorite films.
The original negative of Tokyo Story was lost shortly after the movie was completed, due to a fire at the vault of the film lab where it was being stored. The film had to be released using prints made from a dupe protective negative.
Ozu spent 103 days with his co-writer Kogo Noda at a country inn in Chigasaki, Japan writing the script. Location scouting, shooting, and editing the film happened speedily—Tokyo Story was only in production for four months total.
Tokyo Story is available to stream on Hulu as part of The Criterion Collection.

The 3 dimensions of secrets: What are you hiding and why?
This scientist collected thousands of secrets. They all had 3 things in common.

How many secrets are you holding right now? If the answer is around 13, you're about average, according to research on the nature of secrets.
Secrets aren't all bad. Some are rather trivial. But sometimes, keeping secrets can weigh us down and cause psychological distress.
Michael Slepian, an associate professor at Columbia Business School, has spent years studying the nature of secrets, why we hold them, and which kinds of secrets people deem the most serious.
As Slepian explains in this Big Think video, his research has revealed that secrets generally can be sorted into three domains. Gaining a better understanding of your secrets can help you improve your well-being.
MICHAEL SLEPIAN: We all keep secrets. You likely have a secret right now, if not multiple. What we see in the research is that the average person has as many as 13 secrets at any given time. When we keep a secret, we're often trying to protect something: maybe we're trying to protect ourselves and our reputation, or maybe we're trying to protect someone we care about, but we don't always draw the line in the right place. A secret can feel heavy, like this weight we're carrying around with us, and so, our secrets can hurt our health and our well-being, but it doesn't have to be that way- our secrets don't have to hurt us.
For so long, we've known so little about how our secrets affect us, partly because we don't talk about our secrets. I've been studying secrecy for the past 10 years, and when I first started this research, one of the most important questions to understand is what do people keep secret? And we found 38 different categories could really well cover what people said that they were keeping secret. What you're keeping secret will matter a great deal, and if you're wondering how the content of your secret relates to well-being, 38 categories is just too many to answer that question, and so we needed to reduce that number. So we went from 38 different categories of secrets to three-dimensions, and it turned out that if we created a three-dimensional map, we could scatter the secrets in a particular way to match what our participants generated. And so, we drew subway lines running through the three-dimensional space at every single possible angle, and created a list of secrets as you would pass them along each subway stop. And then we showed participants those lists and said, "Hey, do you see these secrets sorted in any meaningful way, and if so, what explains their ordering?" And most of those orderings wouldn't make any sense, but some, by chance, were, and those were the lines where participants most often did see a sensible ordering. And it turned out with just three-dimensions, we could describe this space.
The three-dimensions turned out to be how immoral the secret is, how much the secret involves our relationships and social connections, and how much the secret involves our goals and aspirations. And so secrets that are really high on the immoral dimension, those include, you know, cheating, lying, whereas secrets really low on that dimension don't feel immoral, a secret hobby, for example. Secrets that are high on the relational dimension very much involve our relationships with other people, and so anything about sex is really high on that dimension, whereas on the other side, it feels really personal and individual, and so that could be an experience of trauma. And then finally, that third-dimension, secrets that are really high and related to goals and aspirations: these are often secrets about money, work, ambitions, whereas secrets low on that dimension don't really involve striving for something- a family secret, or even again, an experience of trauma, something that's not based in logic or reason, but is based in feeling. So it's important to not think about them as categories, but as essentially dimensions that to have two ends, and so a secret can be really high or really low.
And so if you wanna know how your secret compares to other secrets, knowing that there's three primary dimensions of secrets is quite useful, because each of those secrets can harm you. But in that is some good news: there's three ways in which a secret doesn't have to harm you. So understanding how your secret hurts you can help you find the path forward. So with that first dimension, even if you've done something wrong in the past, understanding that your past mistakes do not reflect who you are today and doesn't reflect your future behavior, that's another way to feel that the secret isn't hurting you on this first dimension. And for the second dimension, you might think, 'Keeping the secret protects someone I know.' If this is your situation, understanding that even if the secret is difficult to keep, you're doing it in a way to benefit others. And for the third dimension, do you understand your reasons for having the secret? And if that feels like a very fitting situation, again, it may not be easy, but at least you understand why you're keeping the secret. And so if you can identify one of these as fitting your situation, and we find 95% of the time people say, "Yeah, one of these pathways is helpful."
What we see in the research is that makes them feel more capable of coping with the secret, and that's a major step forward. Feelings of control and feelings of efficacy are some of the most important feelings to human life. When people feel in control, when people feel capable of coping with life's challenges and stressors, they do better and they're healthier and they even live longer.
