PRINCES IN THE TOWER

PRINCES IN THE TOWER

            The Princes in the Tower were the sons of King Edward IV of England and Elizabeth Woodville - Edward, 12 and Richard of Shrewsbury, 9. When the king died in 1483, his heir Edward V became king.

            Edward IV left his sons care to his brother Richard, who put his nephews in the Tower of London to prepare for Edward V’s upcoming coronation. Richard claimed himself as king and the princes as illegitimate.  

            Richard III left his nephews in the Tower of London under guard and their mother had to go into sanctuary. The Princes disappeared that same year and were most likely murdered. It was believed that Richard III had the princes killed as they would have been a constant threat to his throne. After the Princes disappeared, Richard III and his once loyal companion, the Duke of Buckingham, had a falling out. Thomas More wrote that Buckingham confessed to a bishop, ‘… I never agreed or condescended to it’. More wrote that the king organised to have the princes killed in their beds and it was stated that they were smothered by the kings trusted servant James Tyrrell with the help of Miles Forest and John Dighton. More stated that he got much of his information from the confessions of Tyrrell in 1502. More stated the killers buried the princes at the ‘stair foot, under a great heap of stones’.

            Only weeks into his reign, Woodville knowing her sons were now dead; conspired with Henry Tudor’s mother, Margaret Beaufort in secret and promised to have Tudor marry her daughter. In 1485, Richard was defeated at the Battle of Bosworth and Henry VII married Elizabeth of York and the Tudor dynasty began.

            In 1592 Shakespeare described Richard III as a hunchback, many modern Richard III supporters didn’t believe this was true and believed it was Tudor propaganda. They were wrong, Richard III’s remains were discovered in 2012 and it was revealed he had suffered severe curvature of the spine.

            In 1674, during the reign of King Charles II, during work at the Tower of London, workmen discovered a wooden box under the staircase containing two small human skeletons. It is believed that these were the remains of the princes. The king had them buried in Westminster Abbey where they remain today.

"Equilibrar la locura absolutamente rimbombante con historias conmovedoras impulsadas por personajes".

Perri Nemiroff de Collider agregó que la película es "eléctrica". “Una delicia alocada y llena de energía con un elenco lleno de ases que aplastan una escena tras otra. MUCHAS risas (me duele la cara de verdad), la amenaza de Gorr de Christian Bale es escalofriante, pero sobre todo me encantó que es una película llena de buenas vibraciones y corazón”.

While the queen was gaining so great and numerous a mixture of forces, that good princess was very anxious to draw into her party Thomas Wentworth, Lord Wentworth, a most respected nobleman. She sent two of her servants from among the gentry, John Tyrrell, a near kinsman of his lordship, and Edward Glemham, to negotiate with him; they were to apprise him of the queen's message that he should take a good care for himself and for his family not to forsake the queen's cause, which would be to the perpetual dishonour of his house.  After a little reflection as to what he should do for the best, he gave them the wisest possible answer: although he had pledged his fealty to Jane by the obligation of his oath, his inner conscience constantly proclaimed that Mary had a greater right to the throne, so that he would pay no more heed to that obligation but set it aside and join his true sovereign with all speed.

Warming up to ales: the British beer movement brewing in America

Americans have long rejected Britains booze as too warm and flat but a new wave of brewers are seeking to change that

Americans perceive several reasons to shun British beer. It’s warm. It’s flat. It’s bitter. Or, worse, it’s mild. Thanks but no thanks.

Instead they drink ice-cold Budweiser-type lagers or potent craft brews and leave the Brits to their eccentric potions.

Now a Minnesota-born brewer with a punk vibe and passion for English ale hopes to change all that, starting with “sublime pints” in Los Angeles.

“British beers have been flying under the radar here. They’re maligned and they basically apologise for being what they are,” said Andy Black. “We’re not apologising. We’re proud of what we do and want to be in your face about it.”

Black, 30, is the head brewer at Yorkshire Square, in Torrance, south of LA, which is riding a small, growing movement embracing traditional British-style beer in California.

He makes cask-conditioned bitters, milds, pales, goldens and porters which tend to be more balanced and lower in alcohol than US craft beers or imported Belgian and German brews.

Yorkshire Square has garnered buzz since launching a year ago and will on Saturday debut at LA Beer Week, an industry showcase otherwise monopolized by strong, hoppy India Pale Ales (IPAs).

Black considers IPA dominance the “hamburgfication” of beer. “I have a strong anti-authoritarian streak and like challenging existing notions.”

Other British-inspired brewers will also attend, reflecting evolving consumer palettes, said Frances Lopez, executive director of the LA County Brewers Guild, which sponsors the beer week. “We didn’t see a lot of British-style beers on the west coast so it’s been nice to see people gravitating towards nuance and craft beer.”

The festival will come on the heels of Britain’s national beer day on Friday, the anniversary of the sealing of the Magna Carta in 1215, a charter which among other things promised consistency for boozers: “Let there be throughout our kingdom a single measure for wine and a single measure for ale.”

British beer, especially bitter, has long struggled in the US. Less cold and fizzy than domestic beers, it is deemed relatively warm and flat.

The name bitter – a type of pale ale which is not in fact very bitter – alienated drinkers who favoured smooth, light lagers. A 1990s ad campaign for Keystone Light mocked “bitter beer face” with images of gurning trolls.

Then came the explosion in strong craft beers with experimental blends and ingredients, including gummy bears, and British beer was deemed not too strong but too insipid.

“It’s a very misunderstood style, which is why it’s taken so long for people to give it a shot,” Lopez said.

In addition to Yorkshire Square, LA’s beer week will also feature local British-style offerings from MacLeod Ale and an extra strong bitter (ESB) from Three Weavers Brewing Company. Several British-style breweries have sprouted across the west coast in recent years, including Machine House in Seattle and Freewheel in Redwood City, near San Francisco.

“British beer? I think it’s on the way,” said Megan Krigbaum, a contributing editor to Punch, a New York-based online drinks magazine.

“Bitter” and “mild” – another misnomer – reflect self-sabotaging English downplay, Krigbaum wrote in an essay last year. But a trend towards so-called “session beers” – lighter fare allowing multiple scoops in social settings – is emboldening Americans to try British pints, she said.

Even so, Yorkshire Square refers to “bitter” only on the premises, where staff can explain it to customers. It is branded “pub ale” when sold outside. “People are very literal,” said Black.

The tattooed, pierced Minnesotan is an unlikely real ale champion. He studied anthropology and worked at a not-for-profit organisation before deciding to turn a home brew hobby into a career, starting with internships at breweries in Yorkshire and Sunderland in the UK.

Now with a 10-strong team, Black brews 550 barrels of British-style beer per year a few miles from the Pacific Ocean. The average alcohol by volume (ABV) is 4.3%, just over half of that of a typical IPA.

Yorkshire Square was the brainchild of Gary Croft, an expatriate from Leeds who worked in pharmaceuticals before deciding to recreate British brews and pub culture. “I thought it was something Americans were missing out on,” he said.

Customers lauded the results. “You can have a handful and still hold a conversation,” said Ryan Trousadale, 32, seated in a sunlit terrace and raising a “1948”, a dark mild based on postwar English brewing records.

“Wonderful, low-octane social lubricant,” said Rob Tyrrell, 65, a retired aerospace worker. A welcome contrast, he said, with rocket-fuelled IPAs. “With the hoppy stuff, you better enjoy the first one because your buds are done.”

Jane Peyton, a beer sommelier and instigator of Britain’s national beer day, said via email that some US brewers were importing British hops to make British-style session beers.

Enthusiasm was spreading to imported beers, she added, with some Americans exalting brands with humble reputations in Britain. “I have lost count of the times that my clients have rhapsodised about Newcastle Brown Ale.”

20 Awesome Brick Walls in the Bathroom

I WILL’t inform you enough how much i am excited about brick walls in the interiors. As a kid, we have been advised of the tale about the Three Little Pigs where one in every of these brothers (the last one) made a home of bricks that saved him and his brothers from the big dangerous wolf that went to the first homes and destroyed them. So, with that, we all know how much strong and neat brick walls (or houses) are. Below, you can be seeing a fantastic checklist that showcases a list of bathrooms that experience brick walls – either as accent walls or their primary walls. This list presentations a pair of bogs with the traditional purple brick walls whilst a few have white brick partitions. you should go beforehand and take a look at this list and pick a favourite – red or white!

Jane Kim Design First prevent is your conventional purple brick walled rest room from Jane Kim Layout. The furnishings in right here glance in point of fact vintage and really attention-grabbing. the choice of toilet furnishings in here's slightly one thing, even the tile used to enrich the red bricks is just so fancy.

RKM Internal Design This part of the bathroom i locate attention-grabbing. i'm hoping that whoever uses the tub wouldn't hit the ceiling component to the brick arch. As you'll be able to see, the distinction at the pink bricks and the white bathtub makes each of these things stand out – particularly the white bath.

Stephen Fletcher Architects I Like the immaculate steel bath in this rest room. It’s loopy unique and i’d love to in reality have one when I CAN in fact find the money for it. the usual white tub in an ordinary rectangle or the ones adorable oval ones are pretty, however i believe that having a stainless bath would be attention-grabbing and cool altogether.

Break Out From Settee Here Is one contemporary layout of a tub which in truth seems to be in point of fact fancy. I don’t produce other photos of this house but i think throughout from the bathtub is the bed – pretty cool, right? i actually dream of having a bath with regards to my bed even separately from the bathroom. I Love this.

Studio 10 Internal Layout The contrast of the crimson brick wall and that of the white wall is rather cool. It makes me suppose which one is actually the accent wall and which one is the primary wall that wanted accenting. With the uncovered ceiling and the matching wooden flooring, i believe this toilet is considered one of the prettiest in this listing.

Wolveridge Architects This Bathroom is something – with white walls and ceiling and the fundamental white rest room fixtures, the use of pink bricks for the aspect of the bathtub and the floor is one awesome move. It creates a loft feel and on the same time, it makes it seem like other puts. It appears nice in this picture, but I WILL’t say the same after we see it in person.

Tyrrell and Laing Global, Inc. The Primary merchandise or the focus of this toilet is actually the bathtub. Why now not? It without a doubt deserves an entire lot of consideration because it looks actually lovely and comfortable. As so much because the white portions of this toilet glance divine, i believe the extra brick wall on the upper part of the wall and the brown granite as the countertop and backsplash makes an entire lot of difference in right here.

Hudson Place Realty While I first saw this photograph I were given confused with the decorations behind the tub; toilets don’t regularly have this so much decorations and never rest room similar stuff, if you realize that I mean. I’m undecided if this was once staged or whatnot, but i think that those cabinets undoubtedly made this space fascinating.

Flux Interiors The Primary time I came across this bathroom photograph, it used to be hard for me to really in finding the best size that i needed and whilst I did, i was in reality satisfied. I Really Like spaces that showcase vintage decorations or Americana that makes it truly appealing. I imply, i know no longer all of the visitors who would talk over with this house might see how beautiful this Pinocchio portrait is, however i believe it really seems to be unique.

Contramark Contramark certain made sure that this bathroom could seems awesome and ideal. The distinction at the prints, textures and colors in this rest room is quite interesting and very fascinating. i've never noticed such a lot drama (the good sort) in a bathroom. I mean, i do know there are fancier and perhaps extra stunning toilets however this one appears just like it is where it belongs.

Peter Landers Photography As so much brick partitions can be great for an entire room, having bits of it in the house (in the bathroom, for that topic) creates a extra funky aura. A Few areas do not really want that funky contact however for others who want to deliver a touch of a loft in their houses, toilets like this one ought to do the trick.

Carl Leroy-Smith I particularly like how a lot better bath tubs appears to be like beside a brick wall. The distinction of colour makes it stand out and just about makes it extra appealing than it already is. It makes the tub glance love it’s actually inviting and i guess the home homeowners made this phase sure in order that bathing can be as enjoyable as it have to be – all of the time.

Court Atkins Workforce I WILL’t say so much about this loo as a result of this is already an outstanding space to even speak about it. The use of white, picket, granite and bricks make this bathroom different and cool. i like the colour via the door and above it – it’s captivating.

John Cannon Homes When I saw this image, i used to be as to what number of a few of the pictures in this listing has brick partitions by way of the lavatory space as much as the ceiling part? I didn’t really test what number of – however however, I’m happy that now we have this one on the list for reference. Making arches fabricated from brick is common however adding it via the bathroom is an even thing; at least i think so.

Otero Signature Properties I’m afraid that you actually have to actually zoom on this photograph for you to give you the option to see the white brick wall however don’t worry because it sure is one neat thought. They introduced the brick wall at the back of the mirrors and the sconces. i believe that this bathroom is one beautiful area to chill and take a bath.

Inner Intuitions, Inc. You Can mainly see the outdoors from the window by means of the shower, and why not if you happen to have a big outside that the neighbor can’t see, proper? i like how nice this transform is, aside from that it has to many corners that children aren’t supposed to be right here; the corners of this toilet might be dangerous – unless of course that is child-proofed.

Tonic Layout Featured this photograph as soon as ahead of and i suppose this one wishes this publicity as it is just so neat. the combination of the pink brick, the black glossy tiles and grey diagonally positioned ground tiles make this space somewhat masculine; particularly the reality that this has a black bath too. however, i feel this area is still beautiful and sophisticated.

Tom Hurt Structure I wish that you'll see the other aspect of this loo; across from the reflect – there you'll see the beautiful tub. even when the wall on that aspect is not so pretty, generally, i believe that this toilet has slightly of an Asian touch to it and it’s moderately catchy and neat.

Hansgrohe UNITED STATES this is but a small element of all of the toilet but since the brick is noticed in this attitude, i assumed that we must proportion this with you guys. The contrast of the red bricks that serves because the backsplash and the white walls, beams, loo and flooring makes the bricks in reality wanted.

Catlin Stothers Design Remaining but surely now not the least is a minimalist lavatory area. i like how uncooked this space in fact appears to be like with out a lot paint on the wall and the concept that it kind of feels no longer completed or what but still looking truly superior. i really like how the incomplete aura makes it unique from other spaces. This record won't appear such a lot for a few, however i feel that seeing bathrooms just like the ones in this checklist makes for great concepts and concept for designs you'll use in the long run, whether or not it’s professionally or personally. If you have the chance despite the fact that, be at liberty to take a look at the dining ares with brick partitions and propose us as to what we will be able to do again next time!
