# John Cummings (politician)

John Scott Cummings (6 July 1943 – 4 January 2017) was a British Labour politician who served as Member of Parliament (MP) for Easington from 1987 until 2010.

## Early life

Cummings was born in Newcastle upon Tyne, a fifth-generation coal miner. He was educated at the Murton Council Infant and Junior schools on Watt Street and Secondary school. He attended both the Easington Technical College and the Durham Technical College until 1962. He began his career with the National Coal Board as a miner in 1958, working as a pit electrician from 1967 until his election to the House of Commons twenty years later. He was elected as a councillor to the Easington District Council in 1970, was its chairman from 1975 to 1976, and was its leader from 1979 until he stepped down in 1987. Active on picket lines during the 1984–85 miners' strike, in which Easington was the location of several clashes with the police, Cummings later claimed his Jack Russell Terrier Grit had been trained to "nip at policemen's ankles".
He was a member of the Northumbrian Water Authority and the Peterlee and Newton Aycliffe Development Corporation. A trade unionist with the National Union of Mineworkers, he was a trustee for the union from 1986 to 2000.

## Parliamentary career

Cummings was first elected to the House of Commons at the 1987 General Election as the Labour MP for Easington following the retirement of Jack Dormand. His majority was 24,639. Entering the Commons at the same time as another former miner from the North-East, Ronnie Campbell, the two men were described by journalist Andrew Roth as "rough diamonds, set to shine".
In parliament, he became a member of the Environment Select committee from 1990 until he was promoted to become an Opposition Whip by Tony Blair in 1995. However, he was sacked after the 1997 General Election and did not serve in government. He again joined the environment select committee (in its various guises of Environment, Transport and the Regions and Transport, Local Government and the Regions). He was a member of the Speaker's Panel of Chairmen from 2000 and served on the select committee of the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister from 2002.
On 9 October 2006, Cummings announced his intention to stand down at the next general election. In September 2007, the Easington Constituency Labour Party (CLP) selected local councillor and CLP secretary Grahame Morris as their candidate for the 2010 election.

# Valley Beth Shalom

Valley Beth Shalom (informally called VBS) is a Conservative synagogue at 15739 Ventura Boulevard in Encino, Los Angeles, California, in the United States. With approximately 1,500 member families, it is one of the largest synagogues in Los Angeles and one of the largest Conservative synagogues in the United States.
Newsweek included the synagogue on its 2009 list of America's 25 Most Vibrant Congregations, saying, "Valley Beth Shalom continues to be one of America's most relevant and community-minded synagogues."

## History

Valley Beth Shalom was formed in the 1950s through the merger of three small synagogues, and was initially named Valley Beth Sholom (sic.), located on Sepulveda Boulevard. In the 1970s, Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis became a driving force in the expansion of the congregation and the current synagogue was completed during his tenure in the late 1980s.

## Overview

The clergy include Senior Rabbi Nolan Lebovitz, rabbis Ed Feinstein, Nina Bieber Feinstein, and Yael Aranoff, and cantors Phil Baron and Jacqueline Rafii. Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis, arguably one of the most influential and renowned rabbis of his generation, was rabbi for many decades as well, serving in this capacity until his death in 2014.
The synagogue launched the Jewish World Watch, an NGO founded by Schulweis and Janice Kamenir-Reznik, and is a founding member of the Havurah movement.
On Yom Ha'atzmaut 2003 (6 May), a Molotov cocktail was thrown through one of the synagogue's stained-glass windows. Mayor James K. Hahn said, "These are acts of terrorism, they're acts of hatred, and they tear at the very fabric of our community."

# Aegae (Achaea)

Aegae or Aigai (Ancient Greek: Αἰγαί), also known as Aega or Aiga (Αἰγά), was a town and polis (city-state) of ancient Achaea, and one of the 12 Achaean cities. It was situated upon the river Crathis and upon the coast, between Aegeira and Bura.
One of the mentions of Aegae in Homer's Iliad points to this town.
It was afterwards deserted by its inhabitants, who removed to the neighbouring town of Aegeira; and it had already ceased to be one of the 12 Achaean cities on the renewal of the Achaean League in 280 BCE, its place being occupied by Ceryneia. Its name does not occur in Polybius. Neither Strabo nor Pausanias mention on which bank of the Crathis it stood, but it probably stood on the left bank, since the right is low and often inundated.
Its site is located near the modern Akrata. The location of the ancient city has been excavated.

## Explanatory notes

* ↑ The other mention of Aegae, in Homer, Iliad, 13.21, points to Aegae (Euboea).
# Londonderry Victoria Road railway station

Londonderry Victoria Road railway station served Derry, County Londonderry, in Northern Ireland.

## History

The station was opened by the Donegal Railway Company on 6 August 1900, when they decided to build their own line from Strabane to Derry to reduce the need for switching trains with the Great Northern Railway. It was built in red brick in 1899–1900 by R Campbell & Son of Belfast to designs by James Barton. Its front elevation faced the Craigavon Bridge.
It closed on 1 January 1955.
The station building was purchased by O'Neill & McHenry, a firm of wholesale grocers, who adapted it for storage purposes.
The former bonded warehouse which presently has the address of 6 Victoria Road has been inhabited by Dawson Hinds Office Furniture Centre since the early 1990s.
Between 1972 and 1978, part of the building was leased to the North West of Ireland Railway Society, which used it to house the Foyle Valley Railway Museum.

# The Model (film)

The Model is a 2016 Danish psychological thriller film directed by Mads Matthiesen and written by Matthiesen, Martin Zandvliet and Anders August. The film stars Maria Palm and Ed Skrein.

## Plot

A young mentally ill Danish model named Emma is fighting for a breakthrough in the Parisian fashion world. Her journey to the center of the city of fashion, Paris, and the glamorous life as a top model evolve into a true drama, as Emma meets the attractive and somewhat older fashion photographer Shane White. Emma begins to love her lifestyle, and with Shane by her side, the fashion industry's doors begin to open. But soon Emma finds that love also has gloomy facets, and her dreams are challenged by both Shane and an unexpected, dark side of herself.

## Cast

* Maria Palm as Emma
* Ed Skrein as Shane White
* Yvonnick Muller as André
* Dominic Allburn as Sebastian
* Virgile Bramly as Marcel
* Thierry Hancisse as Bernard
* Marco Ilsø as Frederik

## Reception

The Model received mixed reviews from critics. On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 71%, based on seven reviews, with an average rating of 5.87/10. Metacritic gives the film a score of 58 out of 100, based on six critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".
The main criticisms of the film were its narrative, particularly plot development, and lack of character development. Variety stated, "The screenplay by Matthiessen and co-writers Martin Pieter Zandvliet and Anders Frithiof August is compelling up until the melodramatic, credulity-straining final act, although the characters, apart from Emma, feel underdeveloped". Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times wrote, "The bodies are thin in the Danish film and so is the plot, though the real-life model who plays the lead role acquits herself well enough".

# Charles Mason (Iowa judge)

Charles Mason (October 24, 1804 – February 25, 1882) was born in Pompey, New York and became a patent attorney, taught engineering, and was the chief justice of the Iowa Territorial Supreme Court, from 1838 to 1846, and then became the first chief justice of the Iowa Supreme Court when Iowa was granted statehood, from 1846 to 1847.
However, today Mason is perhaps most remembered as the cadet who graduated first in the class of 1829 at the United States Military Academy at West Point, ahead of future Confederate Army commander Robert E. Lee. Mason and Lee were tied for the head of the class in Artillery, Tactics, and Conduct, but Mason bested Lee in all other subjects and graduated with an overall score of 1,995.5 points out of a possible 2,000, compared to Lee's 1,966.5. Mason resigned his commission in 1831, two years after graduation.
Mason and Lee also still have the two highest graduation point scores in the history of West Point. The third highest score in the Academy's history is held by Douglas MacArthur.
Later, Mason was president of the Burlington and Missouri River Railroad, from 1852 to 1853, and United States Commissioner of Patents, from 1853 to 1857. During his twice interrupted (he submitted his resignation three times 1853-7) tenure as Commissioner of Patents, Mason instituted a heretofore rare experiment in workplace diversity. He hired several women, among them Clara Barton, to work as equals to their male counterparts.
He was the Democratic candidate for Governor of Iowa in 1867, but was defeated by Samuel Merrill.
Mason was a patron of the painter George Henry Yewell.
Charles Mason died in Burlington, Iowa on February 25, 1882.

# 1995 Labour Party Shadow Cabinet election

Elections to the Labour Party's Shadow Cabinet took place in October 1995, at the beginning of the 1995/6 session of parliament. Under the rules then in effect, the Commons members of the Parliamentary Labour Party elected 19 members of the Official Opposition Shadow Cabinet, who were then assigned portfolios by the leader. The Labour peers elected the Leader of the Opposition in the House of Lords. In addition, the Leader of the Labour Party and Deputy Leader (Tony Blair and John Prescott, respectively) were members by virtue of those offices. With this election, for the first time, the role Opposition Chief Whip was simply another portfolio to be handed out rather than an office separately elected by the PLP. The 19 elected members of the Shadow Cabinet were the ones with the largest number of votes. MPs were required to vote for at least four women, but women were not necessarily guaranteed places in the Shadow Cabinet.

# Wat Pa Pao, Mueang Chiang Mai

Wat Pa Pao is a Buddhist temple in Chiang Mai, northern Thailand. Situated at the north-east corner of the old city next to the moat, it was the first temple in Chiang Mai to be built for the Shan community.

## History

Wat Pa Pao, which takes its name from a grove of pao trees in which the temple was built ("pa" meaning "forest"), was established in 1883 and was the first temple built in Chiang Mai to serve the Shan community, many of whom had migrated from the Shan States in northeastern Burma to work in the teak logging industry, and were without a place to practice their form of Buddhist worship. It was founded by Inthawichayanon, the 7th ruler of Chiang Mai, and Mom Bualai, who was his Shan consort, together with members of the Shan community.

## Description

The temple is known for its distinctive chedi and two assembly halls built in the Burmese-Shan architectural style. The bell-shaped chedi, mounted on a triple-tiered square base, is surmounted by a golden spire and hti, and is decorated with four qilin, mythical creatures with a lion's body and a dragon's head, at each corner. In the courtyard is an assembly hall with a seven tier, Burmese style pyatthat roof rising over its eastern end surmounted by a hti. To the west of the chedi is another assembly hall constructed mostly of teak with a striking multi-tiered zeitawun wooden roof, highly decorated with friezes and dyed red, and depicting stylised scenes of Mount Meru. The temple has a Thai Ping style Buddha image dated 1487, while many of the temple's Buddha images have distinctive Shan or Burmese characteristics.
The temple is the site of the annual Poy Sang Long festival when boys are inducted as novice monks. Taking place in April and lasting for three days, it features a procession of Shan people in traditional clothing who parade through the city. Functioning as a community centre for the Shan community, the temple also provides schooling for children in the Shan dialect.
