Martin Puryear (born May 23, 1941) is an African American sculptor. He is considered one of the foremost sculptors of the present day, and the leading African American sculptor. He works in media such as wood, stone, tar, and wire, and his work is a union of minimalism and traditional crafts.

Life

He was born in Washington, D.C., and he spent his youth studying practical crafts, learning how to build guitars and furniture. He received a B.A. from The Catholic University of America in 1963 and was a Peace Corps volunteer in Sierra Leone from 1964 to 1966. In the late 1960s he studied printmaking in Sweden and assisted a master cabinet-maker. He entered the Yale University graduate sculpture program in 1968.

His first solo exhibition was held in the late 1970s at the Corcoran Gallery of Art. In the 1980s he participated in two Whitney Biennials and received a Guggenheim Fellowship. He received a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship in 1989.

In 2003, he served on the Jury for the World Trade Center Site Memorial Competition.

The Museum of Modern Art presented a 30-year survey of Puryear’s work in 2007. The retrospective opens at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art on November 8, 2008. SFMOMA’s presentation “includes a special installation in the Haas Atrium including Ladder for Booker T. Washington (1996), made from a 36-foot-long split sapling, and Ad Astra (2007), a 63-foot-tall work that rises to the museum’s fifth-floor bridge.” The Haas Atrium work can be viewed without purchasing a museum admission ticket.

Work

Martin Puryear’s work is the product of much thought, assembled in a minimalist, simple design. Two of his main works are Sanctuary and Box and Pole. The latter’s simplicity is evident just by analyzing its simple title. Box and Pole comprises a box on the ground with a hundred foot pole jutting upwards to the sky, therefore symbolizing our position on earth. We are superior to some things (the box), yet inferior to others (God). He is clearly a modern sculptor, but in works such as Sanctuary he uses primitive techniques to create his final work. Sanctuary is basically a stick connecting a box that anchors what is on the other end of the stick, a wheel. The wheel can move, but its movement is restricted, symbolic of human life. His work contributes to society as a whole as it teaches us many moral lessons such as the two mentioned.

His works are held in the collections of the Guggenheim, Museum of Modern Art, Corcoran Gallery of Art, Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Walker Art Center, Art Institute of Chicago and Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts.

Patrice “Pascal” “Paschal” Breland (June 15, 1811 Saskatchewan Valley, North-West Territories (today in the province of Saskatchewan) – October 24, 1896) was a famous 19th century Pre confederation Canadian Metis farmer and politician. He was elected to the Manitoba Legislative Assembly serving from 1870 until 1874.

Early life

In 1836 Breland married his wife Marie Grant who was just 15 years old at the time, Breland was 25 years of age. The pair had a very large family of six boys and nine girls. Tragedy struck his family on June 21, 1863 when his son Napoléon Breland drowned at the age of four.

Council of Assiniboia

Breland became a member of the Council of Assiniboia in September 1857.

Manitoba Legislature

Breland ran in the first general election held after Manitoba joined confederation in 1870. He won the electoral district of St. Francis Xavier East. In that election he defeated John Bruce who had served as President of the short lived Metis provisional government in 1869. The total vote was small as Breland won 31 votes to 18 for Bruce. Breland did not stand for re-election after the Assembly dissolved in 1874.

Northwest Territories politician

Breland served two long terms as a politician in the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories. He was first appointed to the Temporary North-West Council on December 28, 1872. He served on the council until it was dissolved in 1876. He was re-appointed two years later on July 10, 1878 to serve on the 1st Council of the Northwest Territories. His re-appointment made him the only member of the original council to be re-appointed. He was re-appointed to the council due to demands of the Metis for government representation. Breland was the only member to reside from outside the territories during that period. In total he served 15 years as an appointed member.

Late life

Breland died on October 24, 1896. His grandson Joseph Hamelin became a famous Member of the Manitoba Legislative Assembly during the early 20th century.

Yellowman (born Winston Foster in Negril, Jamaica in 1959) is a Jamaican reggae (rub-a-dub) and dancehall deejay, widely known as King Yellowman. He was popular in Jamaica in the 1980s, coming to prominence with a series of singles that established his reputation.

Career

Winston Foster (aka Ahren) grew up in a Catholic orphanage called Alpha Boys School in Kingston, and was shunned due to having albinism, which was usually not socially accepted in Jamaica. Alpha Boys School was known for its musical alumni. In the late 1970s Yellowman first gained wide attention when he won a contest event in Kingston, Jamaica called “Tastee Patties” where deejays would perform toasting. Like many Jamaican deejays, he honed his talents by frequently performing at outdoor sound-system dances. In 1981, after becoming significantly popular throughout Jamaica, Yellowman became the first dancehall artist to be signed to a major American label (CBS Records). One reviewer of Yellowman was quoted as saying “Listening to Yellowman sing is like watching Michael Jordan play basketball. He knows he’s got it, you know he’s got it, and it’s a trip just experiencing him perform.” Over time he became regarded by some as a sex symbol and even managed to gain fortune and fame by directing attention to his physical skin complexion in several of his songs. His first album release was in 1982 entitled Mister Yellowman followed by Zungguzungguguzungguzeng in 1983 earning instant success. Yellowman’s sexually explicit lyrics in popular songs such as “Them a Mad Over Me” boasted of his sexual prowess, like those of other reggae singers/deejays, earned Yellowman criticism in the mid-1980s. Yellowman appeared in Jamaican Dancehall Volcano Hi-power 1983 which featured other major dancehall musicians such as Massive Dread, Josey Wales, Burro Banton and Eek-A-Mouse.

Yellowman has had a substantial influence on the world of hip hop. He is widely credited for leading the way for the succession of reggae artists that were embraced by the growing hip-hop community in America during the 1980s. The basic riddim of his hit “Zungguzungguguzungguzeng” can be traced throughout the hip hop scene as it was reused by such hip hop giants as KRS-One, Notorious B.I.G., Tupac Shakur, and Blackstar, formed by Mos Def and Talib Kweli. This riddim introduced by Yellowman in this song was referred to by him as “mad mad”, as the rhythm was originally cut by Alton Ellis in 1967 at Studio One as “Mad Mad Mad”. There has been a constant renaming of this signature rhythm (or riddim), such as “Diseases” (after the popular version of the tune by Papa Michigan and General Smilie) Yellowman changed the melodic phrasing of this riddim from AA to AB, when he began ending the second line in the chorus on a higher note. Many of the previously mentioned artists composing songs based on Yellowman’s original riddim differed in their choice of using either the AA or AB pattern. Yellowman is just one example of the influence that reggae stars had on America’s hip hop community. Though an incredibly successful and famous Dancehall deejay, Yellowman is recognized by his opponents as being both a controversial and sexist artist. Though this controversial pace has slowed over the years, he is still known as one of the most rude Dancehall toasters of his time.

By the mid-1990s however, Yellowman released socially-conscious material, rising to international fame along with singers such as Buju Banton. Yellowman became the island’s most popular deejay despite being albinistic. During the early 1980s, Yellowman had over 40 singles and produced up to five albums per year. His success is seen by some as a rags to riches story.

In 1986, Yellowman struggled with cancer of the jaw and it was suspected that he had only 6 months to live, but surgery saved his life. This has given him a more serious approach to his music, but like the struggles of his early days, he has not let these difficulties stand in the way of his aspirations. Yellowman had taken an extended leave from recording but came back with Blueberry Hill. He re-invented himself with his 1994 album Prayer, and since the mid-1990s he has devoted his time to spiritual and social concerns. His latest albums are New York (2003) and Round 1 (2005). Yellowman was also a guest singer on the Run-DMC track “Roots Rap Reggae”, on which he did most of the vocals. Yellowman continues to perform internationally with his Sagittarius Band, and has toured through places such as Peru, Sweden, Italy, Germany, England, France, Kenya and the United States. He is one of the widest-touring artists in the reggae industry. He also featured on OPM’s 2004 album Forthemasses

Zungguzungguguzungguzeng

The melody for Yellowman’s 1982 “Zungguzungguguzungguzeng” has been sampled and imitated repeatedly since its original release in 1967. Coxsone Dodd had already released two dub cuts, “Talking Dub” and “Lusaka”, plus a 1980 cut by Jennifer Lara “Hurt So Good”, while Sly and Robbie’s “Johnny Dollar” by Roland Burrell was also voiced by Yellowman as “Soldier Take Over”.

By 1985, the tune had been used by artists like Super Cat, Sublime, and Ranking Toyan. The use of it in BDP’s “Remix for P is Free” in 1987 brought the melody to the (at least more) public eye, setting it up to be used quite frequently in more Hip Hop and Rap oriented settings. The “Zungguzungguguzungguzeng” melody went on to be used by artists such as Junior M.A.F.I.A., 2pac, Dead Prez, and even Christian rock band P.O.D.

Christian Voice is an American conservative Christian right advocacy group. In 1980, this group had 107,000 members including 37,000 pastors from 45 denominations. It is a project of the American Service Council. Christian Voice was headquartered at the Heritage Foundation in the 1970s and 1980s and is currently located in suburban Washington, D.C., in Alexandria, Virginia .

Christian Voice is best known as the originator and developer of the “Congressional Report Card” and the “Candidates Scorecard”. It helped pioneer grassroots action through use of its “Church Networking Guide”. The organization has been cited in more than 7,000 feature articles in publications, including Newsweek, Time, and U.S. News and World Report and on television programs such as 60 Minutes, ABC News Special Report, 20/20, and Good Morning America.

History

Founded by Dr. Robert Grant, Gary Jarmin and Colonel Donor in 1978, Christian Voice recruited evangelical voters and pioneered the techniques that have enabled the Christian Right gain influence in federal and state governments.

Christian Voice was the first of the Christian Right groups, pre-dating the Christian Coalition, American Coalition for Traditional Values, Concerned Women for America, Moral Majority, Family Research Council, and other Christian political groups. Christian Voice has employed hundreds of political organizers, including Susan Hirschman, Chief of Staff to former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, Congressman Tom Hagadorn, who chaired the organization for several years, and Tim LaHaye, author of the Left Behind series. Many of the techniques used by current independent and 527 political campaigns were originally developed by Christian Voice.

Voter drives

Christian Voice President Gary Jarmin has been involved in the founding of dozens of other public policy organizations, including the Christian Coalition, Coalition for Religious Freedom, The Seniors Center, and American Council for a Free Asia.

In 2004, Christian Voice spent 2.9 million dollars on its Christian Voter Drive. Its website reports that Christian Voice registered 355,562 new Christian voters in 2004 and turned out 1.2 to 1.5 million voters in its get out the vote efforts. They also distributed 530,000 copies of the grassroots organizing guide “Building the Shining City”.

James Robbins (Bob) Gardiner (1951-04-21 — 2005-04-21) was an animator who helped pioneer what would become known as Claymation.

The United States Sanitary Commission was an official agency of the United States government, created by legislation signed by President of the United States Abraham Lincoln on June 18, 1861, to coordinate the volunteer efforts of women who wanted to contribute to the war effort of the Union states during the American Civil War.

Arising from a meeting in New York City of the Women’s Central Relief Association of New York , the organization was also inspired by the British Sanitary Commission of the Crimean War. The volunteers raised money ($25 million), collected donations, worked as nurses, ran kitchens in the Army camps, administered hospital ships, made uniforms, and organized Sanitary Fairs to support the Federal army with funds and supplies.

The USSC worked with Union Veterans after the war to secure their bounties, back pay, and apply for pensions, until it was finally disbanded in May 1866.

Henry Whitney Bellows, a Massachusetts clergyman, planned the USSC and served as its only president. According to the Wall Street Journal, “Its first executive secretary was Frederick Law Olmsted, the famed landscape architect who designed New York’s Central Park.” George Templeton Strong, New York lawyer and diarist, helped found the commission and served as treasurer and member of the executive committee.

In enzymology, a poly(beta-D-mannuronate) lyase (EC 4.2.2.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically those carbon-oxygen lyases acting on polysaccharides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is poly(beta-D-1,4-mannuronide) lyase. Other names in common use include alginate lyase I, alginate lyase, alginase I, alginase II, and alginase. This enzyme participates in fructose and mannose metabolism.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 3 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1HV6, 1J1T, and 2CWS.
