Solon (Greek: Σόλων; c. 638 – c. 558 BC) was an Athenian statesman, lawmaker, and poet. He is remembered particularly for his efforts to legislate against political, economic, and moral decline in archaic Athens. His reforms failed in the short term, yet he is often credited with having laid the foundations for Athenian democracy. He wrote poetry for pleasure, as patriotic propaganda, and in defense of his constitutional reforms.
Modern knowledge of Solon is limited by the fact that his works only survive in fragments and appear to feature interpolations by later authors, and by the general paucity of documentary and archaeological evidence covering Athens in the early 6th century BC. Ancient authors such as Herodotus and Plutarch are the main source of information, yet they wrote about Solon long after his death, at a time when history was by no means an academic discipline. Fourth century orators, such as Aeschines, tended to attribute to Solon all the laws of their own, much later times.
Jules Amedée François Maigret [ʒyl mɛɡʁɛ], simply Jules Maigret or Maigret to most people, including his wife, is a fictional French police detective, actually a commissaire or commissioner of the Paris "Brigade Criminelle" (Direction Régionale de Police Judiciaire de Paris), created by writer Georges Simenon.
Seventy-five novels and twenty-eight short stories about Maigret were published between 1931 and 1972, starting with Pietr-le-Letton (Pietr the Latvian) and concluding with Maigret et Monsieur Charles (Maigret and Monsieur Charles). The Maigret stories were also adapted for television and radio.
The character of Maigret was invented, but after the first few novels was influenced by Chief Inspector Marcel Guillaume, said to be the greatest French detective of his day, who became a long-time friend of Simenon.
The cinematic potential of Maigret was realized quickly: the first screen Maigret was Pierre Renoir in 1932's Night at the Crossroads, directed by his brother Jean Renoir; the same year brought The Yellow Dog (film) with Abel Tarride, and Harry Baur played him in 1933's La Tête d'un homme, directed by Julien Duvivier.
Jack the Ripper is the best known name given to an unidentified serial killer generally believed to have been active in the largely impoverished areas in and around the Whitechapel district of London in 1888. The name "Jack the Ripper" originated in a letter written by someone claiming to be the murderer that was disseminated in the media. The letter is widely believed to have been a hoax, and may have been written by journalists in an attempt to heighten interest in the story and increase their newspapers' circulation. The killer was called "the Whitechapel Murderer" as well as "Leather Apron" within the crime case files, as well as in contemporary journalistic accounts.
Attacks ascribed to Jack the Ripper typically involved female prostitutes who lived and worked in the slums of the East End of London whose throats were cut prior to abdominal mutilations. The removal of internal organs from at least three of the victims led to proposals that their killer had some anatomical or surgical knowledge. Rumours that the murders were connected intensified in September and October 1888, and letters were received by media outlets and Scotland Yard from a writer or writers purporting to be the murderer. The "From Hell" letter received by George Lusk of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee included half of a preserved human kidney, purportedly taken from one of the victims. The public came increasingly to believe in a single serial killer known as "Jack the Ripper", mainly because of the extraordinarily brutal character of the murders, and because of media treatment of the events.

Rowan Atkinson haucht dem weltweit bekannten Detektiv Maigret neues und frisches Leben ein. Eine Rolle wie für ihn gemacht. Jetzt auf DVD und Blu-ray: http://amzn.to/2h93Lje In zwei Spielfilmen, basierend auf den erfolgreichen Romanen von Georges Simenon, löst Kommissar Maigret Kriminalfälle im Paris der 1950er-Jahre. Atkinson geht in der Rolle dermaßen perfekt auf, als wäre sie ihm auf den Leib geschrieben. Montmartre, Paris. Ein Serienmörder treibt auf den Straßen sein Unwesen. Fünf Frauen sind bereits tot, und die Bewohner trauen sich nicht mehr, nach Anbruch der Dunkelheit aus dem Haus zu gehen. Die Zeitungen sind voll von Spekulationen. Und Kriminalkommissar Maigret ist ohne jegliche Spur unter großem Druck … So beginnt der erste Film "Die Falle" der neuen Drama-Reihe nach dem Krimi...
Ein Musette-Walzer, dessen höchst eingängige Melodie zugleich beschwingt und dennoch melancholisch klingt. Ein Mann, der ein Streichholz an einer Wand anreißt und mit einem wissenden Lächeln seine Pfeife entzündet. Rupert Davies als Kommissar Maigret: ein Mann von imposanter Statur, dessen Auftreten geprägt ist von gelassener Autorität, jemand, der ganz und gar in sich selbst ruht. Von der Natur beschenkt mit einem Charakterkopf und einem offenen, sogleich Vertrauen erweckenden Gesicht mit ausdrucksvollen Augen, die tiefe Mitmenschlichkeit und einen wachen Verstand offenbaren - all das zog mich sogleich in seinen Bann. Georges Simenon hat seine berühmte Schöpfung Jules Maigret auf unverwechselbare Weise beschrieben, wobei der Familienname sich in schöner Ironie von "maigre" (mager) ableit...

This footage, which I shot (16fps) on 'high speed' 16mm Anscocolor (100ASA!) shows the first UK public demonstration in 1961 of colour tv from the BBC. Sitting in a special glass fronted studio, two massive Marconi BD 848 colour cameras, each with a zoom lens, shot a simple interview set. The pictorial results were viewed on 405-line colour monitors in a nearby viewing room. Elsewhere on demo was a '625 line tv' gold fish tank shot with a Pye Mk5 b/w camera. The sharp-eyed will spot several 1960s 'stars'. Actor Ewen Solon, interviewer, Nan Winton, child star Mandy Miller and journalist Peter Noble. Singer unknown. The footage is rather soft due to multiple low res transfers, but fortunately I still have the 100ft of original film. I was a teenager at the time and this film was taken with...
