They're not big budget spectacles or overhyped flicks. They're raw and visceral, just the way they should be. The culture of the cult is active today, even in cinema as moviegoers watch such cult classics endlessly.
Take your average Hollywood botched heist, mix up some colorful British actors and Brad Pitt. The result is a wacky, black comedy that reminds audiences of a Pulp Fiction styled British feature film. Directed by Guy Ritchie and filled with hilarious twists and avant-garde music, this gem of a movie shouldn't be missed.
What Primer lacks in terms of budget and effects, it compensates by showcasing one of the most gripping yet confusing stories ever filmed. Made entirely by mathematician and engineer Shane Carruth, the movie features him along with David Sullivan who embarks on an endless voyage through time loops. The film also discusses the implications of cause and effect along with human philosophy.
Before jumping into science-fiction genres, Christopher Nolan dabbled in the art of neo-noir. Following is the result of that very art. It revolves around a common bystander who finds himself lost in the city's underworld when he begins to follow strangers. It was made entirely out of Nolan's salary, causing the production to use mostly natural lighting on a 16 mm film stock.
Have you ever wondered how the tobacco industry keeps afloat despite being depicted as a fatal money leecher with complete disregard of human life? Then just follow the life of the main character- Nick Naylor, a tobacco lobbyist who exploits the system to make sure people never stop smoking. Aaron Eckhart plays the lead role as a tobacco spokesperson who finds it difficult to pander to cigarette smokers while being a good role model for his son.
Joel Schumacher proved he still had the director's chops after delivering one of the most thrilling nail-biters of the modern century. And the entire events of the movie take place in a phone booth. The occupant is a shady publisher played by Colin Farrel who finds himself in a fix when a sniper forces him to follow his instructions and disclose all personal secrets to the world.
Another classic that was adopted from a novel. The movie is a black comedy that follows the exploits of a con man played by Nicolas Cage whose life turns upside down after a few dirty deals and deceptions. Visionary critic Roger Ebert awarded it four(out of four) stars and called it an unmissable masterpiece. Starring alongside are Sam Rockwell and Alison Lohman.
Danny Boyle's slick and sick take on Edinburgh drug addicts still holds the label for one of the funniest British movies ever made. Ewan Mcgregor, Robert Lee Emery, Robert Carlyle and Ewen Bremner take the audience on a trippy tour of the underbelly of Scotland, paved with drugs and hilarity. A sequel is in the works too that has people going crazy all over Europe.
A more dramatic take on the lives of drug junkies, Requiem for a Dream is a must watch for lost souls who've spiraled down the road of substance abuse. The film focuses on the depraved lives of four teenagers who face the dilemma of having to choose between reality and delusions. Situations start to worsen when they can no longer make the distinction and start destroying everything around them.
One of Will Smith's lesser known films that received mixed reception during its release. It was a break from the standard action comedy movies that the public had seen for such a long time. The actor returned to work along with Gabriele Muccino with whom he crafted the biopic 'The Pursuit of Happyness'. Seven Pounds remains a dramatic movie that becomes even more emotional when viewed multiple times.
The one movie you need to watch, especially if you're an insomniac or just questioning your place in this world. Ripped apart from the pages of Chuck Palahniuk's controversial novel of the same name, the film follows Edward Norton's path of self-destruction along with Brad Pitt(Tyler Durden). And while the mayhem and machoism might be too much for most audiences, the film poses a lot of deep questions on existentialism and self-worth.

Uber may be fined $7.3 million and be suspended from operating in California, thanks to chief administrative law judge Karen V. Clopton of the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC).
In her decision, the judge accused the major ridesharing company of not complying with certain state laws that ensure fair treatment of all passengers, even though they had a year to do so and were given less strict regulations to follow than regular taxi companies.
A spokesperson with Uber called the decision "deeply disappointing." She also stated that the company plans to appeal the decision within the 30 day period it has been granted by the CPUC. The appeals process could take several months before the CPUC determines whether to uphold the fine and suspension.
The multimillion dollar fine is miniscule compared to Uber's total assets (worth around $40 billion) and thus poses no threat to the company's finances. However, if the ban is upheld, it could have devastating implications for the company's future.
Uber is already banned in many places around the world and its policies have been heavily scrutinized by regulators in the U.S. in recent years. A bad outcome here could ruin their public image and jeopardize their existence in the market.
This is not the first time Uber has faced legal issues nor will it be the last. With multiple injury and employee lawsuits in the works and regulatory change on the horizon, it is only a matter of time before Uber is forced to change their ways, or perhaps fail.

What is functional neurology in Tupelo, MS?
Functional Neurology is a specialty in healthcare that focuses on the health and performance of the brain and nervous system and how they interact with the body. Functional neurologists check to see if the nervous system is not working in the following areas: abnormal sensations, abnormal motor functions, abnormal thoughts, or abnormal posture. The brain controls every function in your body and your body provides feedback to the brain. If the communication between your brain and your body breaks down, so, too, can your health.
If you are seeing a practitioner that is only looking at one system such as the digestive system but you also have dysfunction in your nervous, endocrine, and immune system, how can you possibly get better?
Your brain controls and coordinates all function of the body (Grey's Anatomy). When functioning normally, the cerebellum, which is the back bottom part of your cranium, sends messages or "fires" to the brain (right and left hemisphere) which in turn "fires" to the brain stem (mesencephalon, pons, and medulla). This is called the "Brain Loop".
Your health, well-being, physical vitality, mental clarity, and emotional stability are all directly correlated with proper brain function the "Brain Loop".
When functioning correctly, the cerebellum receives adequate input, sending normal input to the brain's frontal lobes, which sends sufficient input to the lower brainstem, keeping the mesencephalon from over-firing.
A mis-firing cerebellum will cause one side of the postural muscles to be in constant spasm. This one-sided muscle spasm will cause imbalances in the spinal bones. Additionally, individual vertebrae will lock up and be restricted in their normal movement. Consequently, chronic back and neck pain, spinal degeneration, arthritis, disc herniations, and sciatica may develop. Once pathologies are ruled out, chronic dizziness and balance disorders are usually the result of cerebellar dysfunction.
A safe, gentle, hands-on, dynamic integration process is used to re-boot, reconnect and restore proper brain function. Traditional chiropractic instruments and/or adjustments are also used, but they are used in a very precise manner?to stimulate function in the effected part of the brain.
Please understand that BBT is not a specific treatment for any disease, illness or disorder. We do not try to cure anything.
Brain-Based Therapy (BBT): A revolutionary breakthrough treatment program pioneered by the country's leading chiropractic neurologist, Dr. Fredrick Carrick. The treatments are all neurologically based and clinically proven to help with chronic pain, balance disorders and other neurologic conditions.
Eyelights Therapy – Eyelights were designed to provide optimal stimulation to the brain using the optic nerve. Glasses designed with flashing lights built to fit behind the lens, they can be programmed to blink on the non-dominant eye in order to strengthen the weaker side of the brain. Since one of the most direct avenues to the brain is via the eye, a child can learn more effectively if they are seeing correctly. And an athlete will perform better because the eye is able to gather all of the information necessary to perform.
Unilateral Adjusting: Understanding how and why to specifically adjust areas of the spine is very important to creating the best possible outcomes. Dr. Barlow has completed over 600 hours of neurologically based adjustment courses.
LORDEX Decompression- Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression: A computer guided system that gently lengthens and decompresses the spine to provide lasting relief from chronic neck and back pain due to disc problems. We were one the first clinic to bring this type of care to Tupelo in 2005. Years of experience have given us a clinical edge allowing you to get the fastest relief possible.

Those of you who suffer from breathing problems such as asthma and allergies, would really know the importance of indoor air quality. This is because, without clean air your home is not a safe haven that you need anymore. The same can be said for those who are healthy as well.
Why such stress over air quality?
Pollutants sneak into every nook and corner of your house. This is nothing new. The good news is that, 80% of these pollutants are just dead skin. However, the remaining 20% can be really harmful: chemicals, bacteria, residues from secondhand smoke, radon, products from aerosols, the list goes on. It is therefore advised to get rid of these harmful substances with the help of an air purifier.
will an air purifier help with dust?
Buying the right air purifier for your home should not be a difficult task, but it is essential that you make sure that you get exactly what fits your home and needs. Buying the first one you see on the shelf is not a smart way to achieve your goals. Depending on the size of your home and the number of rooms that you are trying to cater to, you need to zero in on the right system for your family.
1. Make sure that you get the right air purifier for your personal needs. If you are a patient of asthma or seasonal allergies, you should buy a device with a HEPA filter. This will help you to cleanse air from all types of pollen or dust particles.
2. Do you like your devices when they're quiet? Some air purifiers tend to be loud during their operation. So, if you want to install a unit in your master bedroom, be sure to talk to the customer executive or go through a few reviews before you buy a purifier. This can save you loads of headaches.
3. What kind of features are you looking for? Are you on a tight budget? Some air purifiers come with a lot of bells and whistles - remote controls, programmable timers, automatic powering and air quality sensors. Most of us will never have to really use these options. So again, if you're on a budget, opt for only what you would need.
Finally, it is important that you consult with an expert in air quality control systems in your area at least once, and request a demo if need be, just to be sure.


New models are introduced to its Vectra line of business PCs that features designed to cut operating costs.
Hewlett-Packard (HWP) introduced new models to its Vectra line of business PCs that have more features designed to cut operating costs.
HP says the entire Vectra line is preloaded with revised TopTools software. TopTools now automates more management tasks so that work can be done remotely. Also, all Vectra lines will offer configurations that come standard with local area network adapters with the ability to power up the system from a remote desktop.
HP has added models for "advanced business users" to the XA line that have either a 166-MHz or 200-MHz Pentium processor with MMX multimedia technology. A 2.5GB EIDE hard drive is offered as standard along with 32MB of memory. Prices for systems with Windows NT and the 200-MHz MMX Pentium processor will have an estimated price of $2,779.
The Vectral VLs also get MMX processors, as well as a 64-bit graphics acceleration. Prices will range up to $1,871 for a 200-MHz MMX Pentium model. An non-MMX 133-MHz model will have an estimated price of $1,235.
HP's "value" systems, the Vectra VE, will now come with 150-MHz or 166-MHz Pentium processors and more standard memory. The 150-MHz model will have an estimated retail price of $1,049, while the 166-MHz model will have an estimated price of $1,199.
All models will be available by April.

Q: Is there a "theoretical limit" on how much dynamic programming can speed up an algorithm? Amdahl's law gives a very clear mathematical upper-bound on how much parallelization can improve a certain algorithm. I'm wondering if a similar such upper-bound exists for dynamic programming.
A related question is the following: in dynamic programming, we often hear the phrase "overlapping subproblems". In general, problems with overlapping subproblems are amenable to a dynamic programming solution. Is there a concrete way to quantify the extent to which subproblems overlap? The reason this is related to the original question is that any theoretical upper-bound on how much dynamic programming can speed up an algorithm is likely a function of how much the subproblems overlap. But I don't know if "how much the subproblems overlap" has a formal, mathematical quantification.

Database monitoring is used to observe changes in the database, as well as the performance and metrics around queries and resource usage. Monitoring information can be used to help improve database performance, and ultimately application performance.
Percona Live's Database Monitoring track provides in-depth discussions on database monitoring can be used with IoT, cloud, big data and other important enterprise interests.
Below are the talks covering database monitoring at this year's conference.
This is a hands-on tutorial covering how to set up monitoring for MySQL database servers using the Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) platform. PMM is an open-source collection of tools for managing and monitoring MySQL and MongoDB performance.
In this talk, I will introduce Percona's latest open source software tool: Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM). I will briefly discuss high-level aspects of monitoring we've found work well in practice at Percona, and then spend the rest of the time with an online demonstration of how to use this tool to identify common MySQL issues.

Brazil green recovery plan could boost economy, add jobs, cut emissions: Report
Home/Around the World/Brazil green recovery plan could boost economy, add jobs, cut emissions: Report
Mongabay
If Brazil shifts to a low carbon economy, carbon emissions would be cut by a third while also creating jobs, benefiting economic growth and infrastructure, according to a recent report by the World Resources Institute.
Brazil's post-COVID-19 economic recovery plan could provide an opportunity to implement long-term solutions across multiple sectors that could reduce carbon emissions and Amazon deforestation.
Study authors hope that the economic benefits of the plan will push the current Jair Bolsonaro administration to adopt a green agenda, even if conservation is not a priority.
"Climate denial is at a peak, but cost-benefit will be the leading decision-maker, whether or not it benefits the environment.… Due to post-COVID-19 economic recovery plans, we have a window of opportunity that will close in a year and a half or less." — World Resources Institute Climate Policy Director Carolina Genin.
Shifting to a low carbon economy could boost Brazil's economic growth and reduce carbon emissions by up to 33%, a new study led by the World Resources Institute (WRI) finds.
Investments into greener industry, energy and agriculture, according to the report published this August, could generate an extra US $325-$525 billion in GDP over the next ten years, while also reversing damage to Brazil's environmental reputation, improving access to international investments and green bonds.
"We went into this asking if there would be a trade-off, protecting the climate in detriment to the economy, or if it's a win-win situation," WRI Climate Policy Director Carolina Genin told Mongabay. "What we found was that the low carbon scenarios were all better than business-as-usual."

Under Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, deforestation rates and Amazon fires are soaring, environmental agencies have been defunded, regulations have been drastically reduced, and climate scientists have been routinely sacked allegedly for publishing data on deforestation. His administration has also green-lighted illegal farms on indigenous lands and is pushing hard to open conservation units and indigenous reserves to mining and agribusiness.
But as Brazil prepares its plan for economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, the benefits of adopting climate-friendly measures offer a glimpse of hope in an otherwise bleak financial future.
"Climate denial is at a peak, but cost-benefit will be the leading decision-maker, whether or not it benefits the environment. What we're offering is an exit plan," Genin said. "Due to post-COVID-19 economic recovery plans, we have a window of opportunity that will close in a year and a half or less."

Can Bolsonaro's Brazil go green?
Among its proposals, the WRI report urges the recovery of degraded pastures, building railways, and installing electric buses in Brazil's public transit system — marrying long-sought goals to improve the country's infrastructure with low carbon solutions.
The authors say that low carbon measures are more likely to be adopted by Bolsonaro now, as the government works urgently to produce a viable COVID-19 economic recovery plan, noting that the implementation of environmental goals could open up new economic markets and create two and a half million jobs over the next decade, while also boosting Brazil's tarnished international reputation, reducing the risk of future censure and loss of investments.
"We know the vice-presidency and people in the technical ranks of the government were receptive," said Roberto Schaeffer, an expert in energy economics at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro who contributed to the report. "To a point, we were surprised, but everyone wants to see a way out of this crisis."
But for Marcio Astrini, the head of the Brazil-based environmental think tank Climate Observatory, there is reason to be skeptical. "It's very difficult to believe that this government will adopt any sort of environmental agenda to conduct its policies — a government where the president, the foreign minister and others are climate deniers," he told Mongabay. "Implementing strategic projects requires people in power who want to serve the country's medium to long term interests, which is definitely not the case with this government."
While Brazilian Economy Minister Paulo Guedes champions a strict austerity plan, other economists are clamoring for environmentally-friendly investments, causing a national policy tug-of-war between spending and austerity.
Persuading the current government to make these environmental investments won't be easy agrees Dalia Maimon, a head professor of economics specializing in sustainability and social responsibility at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. "There is talk about public-private partnerships, but if the private sector isn't investing, it will need to come out of federal accounts — and it isn't likely under the current minister," she said.
Last month, 17 Brazilian former finance ministers and central bank directors signed a letter advocating for a transition to a low carbon economy. "Long term impacts of fiscal action will be more about how the money is spent than the volume of public spending, stimulating action on fronts that leverage Brazil's comparative advantages and contribute to long-term economic productivity and job creation," they wrote in the July 14 letter.
Increased pressure to curb deforestation and make Brazil's commodities supply chains more sustainable coming from international investors and key importers of Brazilians goods could push decision-making into a corner. "Leaders may be forced to swallow this [greener development pill] whether they want to or not," said Schaeffer.

Higher productivity, lower carbon emissions
Improving productivity is a cornerstone of the WRI report, as it seeks common ground between agribusiness and industrial interests and the environment.
A program to recover degraded pastures would cost US $4.5 billion. According to WRI's plan, that investment could be earned back in six and a half years of increased productivity, while simultaneously decreasing deforestation pressures. "Just the tax revenue from this investment would total 742 million reais (US $134 million), which could help the government with their budget deficit," said Viviane Romeiro, the lead researcher behind the WRI study.
But not all of the report's proposals are without controversy.
The authors, for example, support the construction of Ferrogrão (Grainrail), a railway wanted badly by agribusiness and being fast tracked by the Bolsonaro administration that would cut through the heart of the Amazon rainforest. The project is strongly opposed by Indigenous peoples and many environmentalists.
"The recent efforts to unblock rail infrastructure in Brasil, especially in the North region, are fundamental for agriculture," the report reads. "Beyond Ferrogrão, the conclusion of the North-South railway in the state of Pará is important to encourage sustainability in the agricultural sector."
According to Astrini, any Amazon infrastructure project needs to proceed with great caution, following the premise that the region has weak socio-environmental governance. "Throughout the Amazon's history, wherever infrastructure projects are implemented, you see an increase in pressure for land and forest loss," he told Mongabay.

A March 2020 study by the Climate Policy Initiative's Brazil Policy Center found that Brazil could lose 2,043 square kilometers (788 square miles) of native vegetation if Grainrail is built.
But according to the National Logistics Plan for 2025, the implementation of railways and other infrastructure projects could reduce transportation costs by US $9.9 billion a year and reduce Brazil's total carbon emissions by 14.3%.
Other WRI proposals, such as a shift to cleaner fossil fuels in the aviation industry, seem unlikely to be adopted, given the economic hit the sector has taken due to the pandemic, says Maimon.
"It's a great start and showing a path for the country, but there is a lot more that still needs to be done," said Maimon.

US State Department's Second Denial of Permission for Cuban Diplomats to Travel
Posted by MLToday | Mar 26, 2012 | Cuba | 0
Statement by participants in DePaul University Conference on Latin America's ALBA and the Peoples'Â Continental Integration.
The participants in DePaul University's "Conference on the Latin American ALBA and the Peoples' Continental Integration" protest the State Department's last minute refusal to grant permission to Chief of the Cuban Interests Section in Washington, DC, Jorge Bolanos Suarez, to travel to Chicago, Illinois to participate in the March 22-23 conference.
This follows the State Department's decision on March 16 to deny Patricia Pego, First Secretary, and Juan Lamigueiro, Deputy Chief of the Cuban Interests Section to participate in three panels at the Left Forum at Pace University in New York City, March 16-18.
Jorge Bolanos was to speak with Nicaraguan Ambassador Francis Campbell Hooker, Charge d'Affairs of the Embassy of Bolivia in Washington, Freddy Bersatti Tudela, and Charge d'Affairs of the Embassy of Venezuela, Angelo Rivero.
Cuban diplomats based in Washington, DC and at the United Nations in New York are forbidden by the United States to travel outside a 25 mile radius without obtaining permission from the State Department.
Last November Ambassador Bolaños was permitted to travel to Columbus and Youngstown, Ohio to lecture on US-Cuba relations.
No State Department explanation was given for the refusal to permit him to speak at the DePaul conference.
Despite the State Department's refusal, Bolanos's speech was read by Professor Felix Masud of the DePaul University History Department. However, the conference attendees were denied the right to interact with and question the Cuban diplomat.
For more than 50 years the U.S. government has maintained a blockade of Cuba that has been repeatedly condemned by the United Nations, as it has caused harm to the people of Cuba. The U.S. government also imposes severe restrictions on U.S. citizens' right to travel to Cuba. Denial of Cuban diplomats in the U.S. the right to travel inside our country also denies American citizens the freedom to interact with, and listen to Cuba's point of view.
This combined with the Obama Administration increasing enforcement of the blockade and with the administration attempts to prevent Cuba from being invited to the Summit of the Americas in Colombia next month; makes it is reasonable to ask: " Why is the American government afraid of Cuba and what doesn't it want the American people to know?"
We also urge all our friends and supporters to answer that question and then call your representatives in Congress and demand the right for Cuban diplomats to travel and engage in exchanges of ideas with the people of the United States.

Q: How to upload my data to Minio after check the capacity of Minio I want to upload many videos to my minio server ,but i think i should to check my minio's capacity
remaining first,i check the doc and the api witch minio provide but there is still no clue,also i try prometheus ,should i check the prometheus first?and run my code to delete data by my own?

A: You can use Prometheus/Grafana to check on total capacity and available capacity. You can use your own monitoring infrastructure or log into the MinIO Console via browser and click on "Monitoring". See https://min.io/docs/minio/kubernetes/upstream/operations/monitoring/collect-minio-metrics-using-prometheus.html#cluster-metrics for reference.


Uninformed and hysteria seems to be a common media thing these days. A drone crashes into the white house tree, a 15 mile flight ban. People digging up footage of extreme modified drones, huge things with rocket launchers.
As soon as the military started flying UAV's that could deliver remote payloads, its inevitable that technology trickle down and emulation was going to occur. It's basically what people do, what they have always done.
Lots of other hobbies or opinions get sensationalised or demonised depending on who / what is being discussed.
for example video games, pretty much every release of grand theft auto tries to / implies based on feeble to no fact how its bad for the people.
My opinion, for what its worth. Is people should read more, think more, and calm the heck down.
If we always in legislation or software constrain ourselves from the "might be used for bad", "someone might", we risk loosing that amazing inspiring creating moment, photograph, image that can change everything.
The world is full of wonder, stop and look at it, rather than reading hacked sensationalised reports. Make up your own mind, if you choose to embrace paranoia, rather than wonder. Live here.


In the 15th chapter of 1 Corinthians, the apostle Paul gives us an outline of Easter events.
He mentions two of the final appearances of Jesus to the people following his death.
Paul gives us no more details than those five words. Five words may not seem like much. These five words recorded by Paul have enormous weight and significance. They represent a new chapter in the journey of one of Jesus' closest relatives.
LETTER: Summer Slide: It's not all fun and games!
EDITOR'S COLUMN: What happens when no one speaks up?


I love giving gifts. I love picking out just the right gift and then wrapping it special for the recipient. But the best part is actually GIVING it to the recipient.
I was talking to my dad the other day and he was saying he wouldn't know what to buy for people and he was glad my mom did the shopping and that I helped him with my mom's gifts from him. Our discussion went deeper into "how do you even know what to buy people"?
I explained to him that because I love gift giving, I have found that by nature, I am always (subconsciously even) listening to people and thinking about what would be a fun gift for them. For example, my friend loves feathers. There is a connection between her and her mother-in-law, who passed away, regarding feathers. Every time she is having a down day or a worrisome moment, it seems that a feather appears out of nowhere as if a sign from heaven that her mother-in-law is watching over her and that God is telling her He's got it all under control.
As I was Christmas shopping, out of the blue, I found a silver necklace with a small feather charm! I wasn't even looking for this person's gift at that moment and there it was! I knew it was the perfect gift! Had I not known her story of the feather, I would have glossed right over that necklace.
Another gift I remember giving years ago was to my friend who lived several hours away. It was a simple afghan customized with my hometown on one end and my friend's hometown on the other end. The saying in between was "the road between a friend's house is never long".
My sister-in-law is a huge IU fan – especially during the Bobby Knight days. He was speaking at my daughter's college and we surprised my sister-in-law with tickets to see Bobby Knight for her birthday. They were not expensive because of the college discount but it was one of her favorite nights.
As you give gifts this Christmas and throughout the year for various occasions, stop and think about the recipient. What do they enjoy doing? What's their favorite sports team? What is their hobby? What's important to them?
Then see if you can pick out a gift that tells a story!
The gift of Jesus is the perfect gift that tells the perfect story!

/ History / Tackling a strong eddy
March 13, 2011 By Mort Smith
Tackling a strong eddy
Ron Stevens has contacted me from his home in Ashford to pass on a lovely story based on a would-be angling trip he experienced in 1942 whilst he was working as a Corporal Vehicle Mechanic serving with the Royal Army Service Corps in Feltham.
TARGET: Ron Stevens was hoping to catch a pike on his doomed fishing trip
Ron recalls that his parents were living in Hounslow at the time and when he had the chance he would cycle from Hounslow, carrying his fishing tackle, and head over to Molesey Lock with his brother.
There, Ron would hire a duck punt and the pair would head upstream hugging the right bank up a backwater to a row of sluices and then cross to Ash Island where they would anchor and do a bit of pike fishing.
He says: "Any decent sized fish we would give to my mother to augment the wartime rations." And I bet they were much appreciated, Ron.
He remembers one particular Sunday in February 1942 when, instead of his brother, Ron was taking a fellow corporal sheet metal worker from Feltham for a day's fishing.
He recalls: "When we arrived at the lock we found the river in flood – but not to be disappointed we parked our bikes at the lock and loaded our luggage into the punt. Not only our fishing tackle but our rifles, gasmasks and steel helmets as well.
UNWIELDY: A punt is not the easiest vessel to control in a strong current
"We made our way upstream towards our favourite spot but when we came to cross towards Ash Island we were caught in a strong eddy that whisked us away past the weir. There was nothing we could do except hold on tight and pray.
"The punt was rocking madly as we were almost under the waterfall from the weir which created a trough about two feet deep on our right with turbulent water on our left.
"Strangely, all I could think about at the time was the impending court martial for losing my rifle!"
Fortunately for Ron and his mate, they were eventually swept past the weir and almost all the way to Hampton Court before they regained control and made their way laboriously back to the lock and eventually to home.
It's a great story, Ron, and I'm pleased to learn you didn't actually lose anything overboard. Bet your mate wasn't in a hurry to go fishing again for while…
I'm grateful to the good folks from Spelthorne Talking News who forwarded Ron's letter to me – I was delighted to learn that Riverwatch frequently features in the wonderful service of spoken excerpts from the Herald and News that this organisation provides for the visually-impaired.
I'M STILL getting feedback about the practice of prize fighting which seems to have been prevalent in our area in years gone by. Of possible interest to readers might be a CD that contains a potted history of Shepperton, which was professionally recorded back in 1991 by a group of local residents. One of the people behind it, Bill Rawcliffe, tells me that the recording contains good descriptions of some of the fights that took place. He's happy to provide copies of the hour-long CD – which is very high quality – at a cost of £5 if it is collected from his home or £6 if it has to be posted All profits will go to the St Nicholas Church rebuilding fund.
If you'd like to know more, contact Bill on 01932 245 301 or email him at bill [at] sheppertonsound.co.uk.
