	Leigh light (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.isi.jhu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The Leigh light, abbreviated L/L in documents, was a small but powerful searchlight fitted to a number of Coastal Command patrol bombers during World War II, to help them spot surfaced submarines at night.
		His light, a 24-inch diameter 22-million candlepower monster, was difficult to fit to aircraft due to its large size.
		By June 1942, aircraft equipped with ASV radar and the Leigh light were operating over the Bay of Biscay.

	The Leigh Valley Light Railway (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		I have been pleased to be associated with the Leigh Valley Light Railway since the late 1990s and greatly admire the tireless annual work of the Morgan family in raising steam and - most importantly - funds for both Crohns in Childhood and The Milestone School.
		Although Leigh has lost a lot of his initial interest in railways it was decided to retain the title as there is a village named Leigh situated between Gloucester and Tewkesbury.
		For me, this picture sums up much of the early days of the Leigh Valley Light Railway: A sunny July weekend, visitors watching from behind a fairly minimalist fence hung with collecting boxes and Malcolm re-fuelling one of the many locomotives to be seen with their carriages and wagons around the layout.

	About Ray Carney: Critics on Carney's The Films of Mike Leigh
		It sheds light on the deeper psychological and philosophical issues that Leigh's films are attempting to shed light on.
		No other study sheds such a revealing light on Leigh's background, his influences, his emotional groundings, and, of course, his unique cinematic sensibility....[Carney's The Films of Mike Leigh is a] powerful and multifaceted analysis which welcomes, like Leigh's work, the vibrant eye and the uncalcified consciousness.
		Leigh's work has been both ridiculed by some and celebrated by others as among the greatest filmmaking of the twentieth century.

		As she came, with light firm steps, up the bank, not exactly approaching them, but turning to the house-door, the party under the trees separated; the gentlemen, attracted by the lightness and beauty of the canoe, went down to the water's edge to look at it more closely.
		Leigh had been dear friends; later, when there were yet others left of the ever-diminishing circle; later still, when Alice and Maurice were her daily companions; and even since, when she herself seemed to be, in the quiet household, the only representative of the daughters and sisters passed away.
		Leigh's old servant, coming in with his early dinner, interrupted them in the middle of an interesting article, and reminded her that it was high time to go home.

		First created for the Bicentennial celebration in 1976 by lighting designer Douglas Leigh, the light display at the top of the Empire State Building caught the popular imagination and became a tradition.
		In 1984 a new lighting system was installed (204 floodlights and 310 fluorescent lamps) from the 72nd floor to the top of the tower.
		The lights are usually turned off on foggy nights during spring and fall for migrating birds, such as the long-tailed sparrow and the yellow-bellied sapsucker.

		In particular, pairs of searchlights spaced a known distance apart were used to determine (via triangulation) the altitude of enemy bombers, so that the fuses on anti-aircraft flak shells could be set appropriately for maximum effect.
		More recently, searchlights are often used in advertising[2], for instance by automobile dealers; the beam of light is visible over a large area, and (at least in theory) interested persons can find the dealer or store by following the beam to its source.
		This also used to be done for movie premieres; thewaving searchlight beams are still to be seen as a design element in the logo of the 20th Century Fox movie studio.

	HyperWar: London Gazette No. 38111
		The urgent need for Leigh Light aircraft over the past two years had meant that aircrews turned over to this role had had insufficient time to devote to training, and the standard of homing and Leigh Light manipulation was not as high as it might have been.
		In the latter even there would be a zone to the East of the flooded area in which U-Boats would be forced to surface for prolonged periods to recharge their batteries, and in which they could be attacked and hunted by air and surface forces with good prospects of success.
		It was expected that the enemy would launch an offensive with destroyers and light surface craft against our convoys sailing to and from their assembly ports and on passage across the Channel.

		larryjcr RE:Beaufighter question 6/27/2005 10:33:47 AM There was a landing light in the leading edge of one wing that took up the space that was occupied by two more guns in the other wing.
		The landing light and its wiring may have precluded placing the same number of guns in each wing because of the ammo boxes and their feed chutes.
		The thought only dimmed that an internal steerable Leigh Light would be asking too much.

		The final Warwick was the GR Mk.V, which was equipped with a Leigh light, in a retractable ventral installation, for anti-submarine patrols.
		Modifications to the rudder and the addition of a dorsal fin cured the rudder overbalance problem, but reduced control authority, so that the minimum speed for single-engined flight became unacceptably high.

		The enduring love story of shy, young Phoebe and strong, handsome soldier Oliver (set in the War years of the early 1900s) has remained strong in my memory all these years.
		While each of Ms Thane's books can be read and enjoyed individually, I think they are best appreciated if one reads them in order: "Dawn's Early Light," "Yankee Stranger," "Ever After," "The Light Heart," "Kissing Kin," "This was Tomorrow," and "Homing." This takes the Day-Sprague clan from the Revolutionary War well into the WWII era.
		I have read Dawn's Early Light and Yankee Stranger and can't wait to read the complete series.
