The Château de Langeais is a medieval castle in Indre-et-Loire, built on a promontory created by the small valley of the Roumer River at the opening to the Loire Valley. Founded in 992 by Fulk Nerra, Count of Anjou, the castle was soon attacked by Count of Blois. After the unsuccessful attack, the now-ruined stone keep. Between 994 and 996 the castle was besieged unsuccessfully twice more. During the conflict between the counts of Anjou and Blois, the castle changed hands several times, in 1038 Fulk captured the castle again. After it was destroyed during the Hundred Years' War, King Louis XI rebuilt Château de Langeais into what today is one of the best known examples of late medieval architecture, it is noted for its monumental and decorated chimneypieces. Restored in the late 19th century, Château de Langeais came under the control of the Institut de France, who own the site today, it is open to the public. The 10th century saw the emergence of the castle, thought to be the second-earliest known, the earliest being Château de Doué-la-Fontaine built by the Count of Blois around 900.

The counts of Anjou and Blois had bordering territories and the powerful lords were rivals. When it was founded in 992 by Fulk Nerra, Count of Anjou, Château de Langeais was made from wood and took the form of a motte-and-bailey. A contemporary chronicler noted that it was built because " had no resting place between Bourgueil and Amboise along the Loire river", it had the advantage of being 24 km from Tours, a town under the control of Odo I, Count of Blois. While the land belonged to Fulk, the area was under the control of Odo; when news of the fortification reached Odo he despatched a force to destroy it. The attack was unsuccessful and Fulk reinforced the site, building the stone keep that stands in ruins today. To distract Odo from the construction work, complete by 994, Fulk carried out intermittent raids on his lands, it has been suggested that the keep's shallow foundations and thin walls, 2 m at their thickest and on average 1.5 m, demonstrate that it was built in haste. Though he was unsuccessful in 992, Odo again tried to capture the castle two years later.

This time he called on his Norman and Aquitanian allies and the siege of Château de Langeais began in the spring of 994. Fulk sent a message to Hugh Capet, King of the Franks, asking for help. In the meantime Odo's numbers grew; the siege continued into the summer and Fulk began negotiating with Odo. Richer, a contemporary chronicler favourable to Odo, asserted that Fulk agreed to surrender but reneged, claiming the agreement was not binding, though it is uncertain whether this was the case. However, the Capetian forces arrived. Faced with the king's army, Odo agreed to leave Fulk in peace. After the siege ended and Odo retreated, Fulk had to deal with hostilities along the western frontier of his lands. Despite Odo's agreement with Hugh, the Count of Blois exploited Fulk's divided attention to install a force at Château de Châteaudun from which he could move to capture Langeais should the opportunity arise. Odo besieged Château de Langeais in 995; the siege continued into the next year. With their leader dead, the besieging force left Langeais.

With his most troublesome enemy dead, Fulk captured Tours, held by the Count of Blois. After Robert, King of the Franks, had taken control of Tours, Fulk turned to the castles of Langeais, Montrésor and Montbazon to defend the Loire Valley. Hostilities between the counts of Anjou and Blois were renewed in 1016. During the course of the conflict, Fulk lost control of three castles: Passavant was destroyed and Montbazon and Langeais were captured. By 1032 Château de Langeais was back under Fulk's control; however it was again taken by the forces of Count of Blois. Odo II was succeeded by his son, Theobald; the siege began in the winter of 1037 and in the spring of the following year, with no relief forthcoming, the garrison surrendered. Fulk set his sights on further territorial gains and captured Château de Chinon 22 km away. Under the Plantagenet kings the château was expanded by Richard I of England; however King Philippe II of France recaptured the château in 1206. Though, during the Hundred Years' War, the English destroyed it.

The château was rebuilt about 1465 during the reign of King Louis XI. The great hall of the château was the scene of the marriage of Anne of Brittany to King Charles VIII on 6 December 1491, which permanently united Brittany and France. In 1886 Jacques Siegfried began a restoration programme, he installed an outstanding collection of tapestries and furnishings and bequeathed the château to the Institut de France, which still owns it today. The château is open to the public, it is listed as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture. According to contemporaneous chronicler Richer, the castle built by Foulques Nerra in the 990s consisted of a tower and a surrounding enclosure; the 10th-century keep still stands, albeit in a ruinous state. It is the earliest example of Romanesque architecture in the region, it is uncertain where the stone used in construct

Harry Perry is an American musician, Venice Beach boardwalk busker, known for playing an electric guitar with a target design on inline skates or landroller skates at Venice Beach Boardwalk. Perry is known by his Sikh name Har Nar Singh Khalsa, by his stage name, the Kama Kosmic Krusader. After growing up in Michigan and recording with his first band there, Harry Perry began performing his original songs and guitar compositions on the Venice Beach Boardwalk in 1973. In addition to being considered the most famous musician who performs at the Venice Beach Boardwalk, he is considered one of the area's most famous skaters, first on traditional roller skates on inline skates when they were invented, on Landroller skates. Over the course of nearly four decades, the Venice Beach Boardwalk became a world-famous tourist attraction where a variety of artists performed and sold various wares associated with their creative arts, such as CDs and T-shirts. During the early 1990s, at a time when real estate developers wanted to gentrify Venice, the Los Angeles City Council passed an ordinance banning people from public performance on the Venice Beach Boardwalk.

Using the ordinance as its bludgeon, the Los Angeles Police began to harass people who performed there. In response, Harry Perry became a named plaintiff in a class action lawsuit in U. S. District Court against the Los Angeles Police Department and the ordinance; the plaintiffs based their suit on various constitutional principles that provide for freedom of expression and congregation. After many years of litigation, The U. S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of his co-plaintiffs. However, their victory was short lived; the Los Angeles City Council created new legislation that restricted performance on the Venice Beach Boardwalk rather than banning it altogether. In addition, the City of Santa Monica followed the lead of the Los Angeles City Council and passed statutes that limited the ability of performers like Harry Perry to sell CDs and T-shirts to their audiences. Perry and others have initiated legal action in response, alleging that the combination of gentrification and the performance restriction ordinances threatens to destroy the atmosphere and commerce that made Venice Beach the social mecca for which it is famous.
