# Leighton Pierce

Leighton Pierce born John Leighton Pierce (27 October 1954, Rochester, NY) is an American experimental filmmaker who works with film, video, sound, and installation. He is best known for his impressionistic technique in video imagery that creates a hypnotic effect as well as his use of sound design. The motif of water is dominant in his work and gave the name to the video series "Memories of Water".
Pierce looks for inspiration in his immediate surroundings. He has stated that "in the simplest terms, a film or a video can be considered to be a meaningful experience in time. As a filmmaker, I take that as my mission: through the use of image and sound, I am composing an experience for the audience"
He has won over 60 awards from film and experimental festivals, grants such as the Rockefeller, Guggenheim, Creative Capital Award, and the National Endowment for the Arts, and has screened his films at the Museum of Modern Art, NY, the Sundance Film Festival, Rotterdam Film Festival, Cinémathèque française, and the Whitney Biennal.

## Exhibitions

In 1995, Leighton Pierce's first feature film "50 Feet of String" constructed a domestic space beyond the recognizable and mundanely familiar. The film won Best of Fest at the Ann Arbor Film Festival (1996), Best Experimental at the Atlanta Film and Video Festival (1996); Best Experimental at the Athens Film Festival (1996); Juror's Citation at Black Maria Film and Video Festival in 1996. It also screened at the Oberhausen Short Film Festival, the Osnabrück Media Arts Festival, the Image Forum, Japan, Impakt Film Festival, Robert Flaherty Film Seminar and Museum of Modern Art, NY.
In 2009, Leighton exhibited "Agency of Time" at the Sundance Film Festival : a multichannel video and sound installation that created animations from long-exposure photography. The installation was commissioned by the Sheldon Museum of Art. It creates an environment that play with the idea of time, memory and desire.

# Legacy (novel series)

Legacy is a series of novels by Cayla Kluver that follow a young princess that must decide between a forbidden love and her obligations to her kingdom. Kluver first began writing the series around the mid-2000s and finished her first rough draft of Legacy at the age of fourteen.
Kluver initially self-published the first volume in the series with the help of her parents, but was later re-released by AmazonEncore in 2008. AmazonEncore passed on further volumes in the series, with Harlequin Teen purchasing the rights to the entire trilogy and releasing the series between 2011 and 2012. Book rights have been sold to over fifteen countries.

## Plot
### Legacy

Legacy follows Princess Alera of Hytanica, a willful young woman that cringes at the idea of marrying over bearing Steldor, her father's chosen suitor. Assuming that she will spend her days with a man that she's attracted to, yet does not actually love, Alera finds herself almost instantly drawn to a youthful intruder. Narian is initially captured by the palace guards as a spy from an enemy kingdom, but is eventually discovered to be the son of a noble family that was long since thought to be dead. Alera begins to secretly meet with Narian, who tells her of life in the other kingdom and the two begin to fall in love. Despite this, Alera is forced to marry Steldor while Narian is condemned as a traitor.

### Allegiance

Allegiance finds Alera as Queen of Hytanica, married to Steldor. She finds herself unable to love him and equally unable to forget Narian, the one she truly loves. This provokes conflicted emotions in her, as she knows that Narian is destined to conquer her kingdom for the magic user Overlord, the ruler of the rival kingdom of Cokyria. Alera initially refuses to believe that Narian could be capable of these actions until she discovers him leading Cokyrian troops in an attack against the city. Despite her heartbreak, Alera must find a way to lead her kingdom to more hopeful times.

### Sacrifice

Sacrifice is told through the dual perspectives of Alera, the fallen Queen of a conquered kingdom, and Shaselle, a rebel whose father was murdered. Alera must not only rebuild her kingdom under the rule of Cokyria, but she must also find a way to rebuild the spirit and pride of her people. Meanwhile, Shaselle seeks to shirk her duties as a Lady in favor of achieving her revenge against those responsible for her father's death. Both women are faced with the choice of love or country, a choice that might lead to painful repercussions.

## Reception

Critical reception for the series has been mostly positive. RT Book Reviews has praised the trilogy as a whole, giving the final volume four and a half stars and marking it as a "top pick". Kirkus Review's opinion of the series is predominantly positive, with the site stating that while Allegiance was "formulaic" the final volume "rises above genre by including thought-provoking elements that examine the role of women, family allegiances and the damaging nature of prejudice".
# Legacy (soul group)

Legacy was a five-person American soul group founded in 1979. The group consisted of producer and songwriter Ben McCray, drummer Al McCray, and singers Barbara Hernandez, Rita Saunders, and Deborah McGriff.
Legacy's first single was "Word Up". Billboard wrote "Legacy's 'Word Up' (Brunswick 12-inch) has all the best hot-and-cool elements of Slave's recent hits: rock steady drumming, a cute girl chorus, and a skillful, slurred male lead. There are several catchy hooks, too."

# Leigh Sisters

The Leigh Sisters was a vaudeville act at the end of the 19th century in the United States.
The sisters were Edna and Stella Leigh who danced in a saucy style, exposing their legs more than was usual in those times. They were filmed by Alfred Clark for two Kinetoscope productions – Acrobatic Dance and Umbrella Dance in 1895. The films were hand coloured so we know that they were blondes, the umbrella was purple. One had a pink skirt and the other was lime green or blue. The film was so popular that new versions were printed and hand coloured for the next five years. These early moving pictures have been lost but there is a frame from the latter in the Margaret Herrick Library.
In 1897, Stella had retired and was replaced by Edwina. The act appeared as members of "The Alimony Club" in Little Miss Chicago, a burlesque at the Gaiety Theatre in Chicago.

It was set up in November 1970 by former yokozuna Kashiwado, who branched off from the Isenoumi stable. Upon his death in December 1996 the stable passed to his protégé, former sekiwake Tagaryū. For many years it had just two wrestlers, one of them Tagaryū's son Ryūsei, making it the smallest active stable. It was decided at a Japan Sumo Association board meeting on July 21, 2021 that it would close immediately with all its personnel transferring to Isenoumi stable.

## Ring name conventions

Many wrestlers at this stable have taken ring names or shikona that include the character 竜 (read: ryū), meaning dragon, in deference to their coach and the stable's owner, the former Tagaryū.

# Nuraghe Palmavera

The nuraghe Palmavera is an archaeological site located in the territory of Alghero, Sardinia. It is classified as a complex nuraghe, that consists of several towers joined together. The nuraghe and the surrounding village were built in various phase during the Bronze Age and the Iron Age.

## History
### First phase

The main tower dates back to the first phase (15th-14th century BC) and retains the central chamber covered with the tholos and built with stones in limestone. The tower is archaic, with the entrance free of side passages and with the niches just sketched in the walls of the main chamber. There must have been also some huts outside the nuraghe.

### Second phase

In the second phase (first half of the ninth century BC) was added a second tower and restored the previous tower with blocks of sandstone. The two towers communicated through an interior courtyard and a corridor with niches.
It was also built the meeting hut, equipped with a stone seat that runs along the perimeter, interrupted by a tank made of stone slabs, of unknown function, and a round stone seat for the chief, standing next to a niche in the wall. At the center of the hut, on a circular altar, it is present a model of a nuragic tower in sandstone. In this period were also built other huts in the village of higher dimension.

### Third phase

In the third phase (9th-8th century BC), the nuraghe was restored again with blocks of limestone and around it was built an exterior wall with four towers-huts, forming two outer courts, divided by a wall with no openings. In one of these courts it was inserted the meeting hut, in the other has been identified a silo.

### Destruction and abandonment of the site

The village was destroyed by fire, probably at the end of the eighth century BC and was later sporadically attended in Punic and Roman times, as witnessed by some pottery found.
# Nuraghe Serbissi

The nuraghe Serbissi is a nuragic complex dating back to 18th-10th century BC. It is located in the municipality of Osini in Ogliastra, Italy.

The nuragic complex, built over a cave with two entrances, consists of a central tower of 6.3m high flanked by three smaller towers, around which are placed 8 circular huts. Access to the towers is through a small courtyard.
The complex was used from the Early Bronze Age to the Late Bronze Age.
# Legion of Light Troops

The Legion of Light Troops, also known as the Light Legion or Legion of Alorna was military unit in the Portuguese Army, created in August 1796.

## History

After the War of the Pyrenees, the Portuguese Army created a new all-arms light corps under the command of - General Pedro de Almeida Portugal, 3rd Marquis of Alorna. Entitled the Legion of Light Troops (Legião de Tropas Ligeiras), it consisted of a battalion of eight companies of infantry; three squadrons of cavalry, each having two companies; and a battery of horse artillery armed with four six-pounders, having 56 men and 40 horses. The establishment totalled 1,339 men. Sometimes called the 'Experimental Legion', it was trained according to Alorna's adaptation of French tactical manuals. The experiment, however, remained isolated. The Legion was somewhat resented by the more conservative elements in the army, and was treated as a separate entity; the tactical novelties which it practised and which were being adopted in other armies - largely failed to spread to the rest of the army. Perhaps the only concession that might be ascribed to its avocation of light troops' tactics was the formation of a light infantry company in each infantry regiment. On 7 July 1803 the battery of artillery was incorporated into the Corte Artillery Regiment. The Legion was little affected by the 1806 regulations and remained a very distinct corps. In any event, the French soon marched in and the Legion of Light Troops was disbanded on 22 December 1807. The pro-French Alorna and some of his officers and men formed the Portuguese Legion in French pay.

## Organization

* General Staff
* 1 Light Infantry Battalion, consisting of 8 companies
* 3 Cavalry Squadrons, consisting of 6 Hussar companies
* 1 Horse Artillery Battery
