		Cieszyn (German: Teschen; Czech: Těšín) is a town in southern Poland with 37,300 inhabitants (1995), situated in the Silesian Voivodship and seat of powiat of Cieszyn (since 1999), previously in Bielsko-Biała Voivodship (1975-1998).
		Cieszyn was the capital of the Duchy of Cieszyn and shared its history throughout the ages.

	Polish Dance in Southern California: Iskry
		The Polish folk dance group Polskie Iskry (in the past billed also as Polski Iskry, Polski Iskrie [sic], and initially, Gwiazdy) was active in the Orange County area of Southern California from the late 1960s to 1996.
		"Polski" is a singular masculine form while "polskie" is a plural feminine form and should accompany "iskry" because this noun (meaning "sparks") is a plural feminine form of the noun "iskra." Another erroneous, and altogether fantastic (as well as short-lived) version spelled the name of the group as Polski Iskrie.
		Polskie Iskry, an American group of Polish dancers, belonged to the recreation dance movement represented by the International Folk Dance Federation of California.
