# Victor Huguenin

**Jean Pierre Victor Huguenin** (21 February 1802 – 8 January 1860) was a French sculptor.

## Career

Jean Pierre Victor Huguenin was born in Dole, Jura, on 21 February 1802. His father was a musician. Victor Huguenin studied under Jules Ramey at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. After teaching at Besançon, he returned to Paris. He exhibited in various exhibitions and received orders from Louis Philippe I for the Museum of the History of France, Versailles, the Jardin du Luxembourg and the courtyard of the Louvre Palace.

Around 1836 Huguenin created a sculpture of Charles VI of France and his mistress Odette de Champdivers. A relatively small work, it was designed to be sold to a rich art-lover who could place it on a table in a salon, or in a cabinet. It was exhibited in the Salon of 1839, and was praised for its composition and its realism.

He undertook a marble statue of Valentina Visconti, Duchess of Orléans (1370-1408), Duchess of Orléans, to an order of 16 January 1843 from the Minister of the Interior. It was exhibited in the Salon of 1846, and is part of the series *Queens of France and famous women* in the Jardin du Luxembourg. In the late 1850s Huguenin undertook the decoration of the Villa Eugénie, the Biarritz summer home of Napoleon III and the Empress Eugenie, with Corinthian columns and reliefs of arms and crowned eagles.

Victor Huguenin died on 8 January 1860 in Paris. A bronze statue of Pasquale Paoli by Huguenin was erected in 1864 the center of the Place Paoli in Corte, Corsica.

# The Copenhagen Tapes

***The Copenhagen Tapes*** is an album by American free jazz saxophonist Albert Ayler consisting of six tracks recorded live at the Club Montmartre in Copenhagen, Denmark on September 3, 1964 plus three tracks recorded in a studio by Danish Radio in Copenhagen on September 10 of the same year. The album was released in 2002 by Ayler Records. The live tracks were also included on disc two of the 2004 compilation album *Holy Ghost* released by Revenant Records, and were also reissued in 2017 on *Copenhagen Live 1964*, released by hatOLOGY. In 2016, the three studio tracks were included in the album *European Radio Studio Recordings 1964* released by hatOLOGY.

## Background

In August 1964, the Cafe Montmartre in Copenhagen, where Ayler had previously played with Cecil Taylor, invited Ayler and his trio, which included bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Sunny Murray, to return for an extended engagement. Despite having been offered only a one-way ticket, Ayler accepted the terms with the goal of exposing his music to a wider audience, given the bleak prospects and lack of interest in the United States. (According to Val Wilmer, "Peacock had been without food for fifteen days when Ayler dragged him from his bed to make the trip.") Don Cherry was already in Europe when the trio arrived, and joined them when they arrived. During the tour, which included Holland, Sweden, and Denmark, the group recorded material that would later be released on *The Hilversum Session* (recorded at a radio studio in Hilversum, The Netherlands on November 9, 1964), *Ghosts* (later released as *Vibrations*, recorded September 14 in Copenhagen), and *The Copenhagen Tapes*, which consists of performances of familiar Ayler tunes such as "Vibrations" and "Spirits".

| *The Penguin Guide to Jazz* |  |

In a review for AllMusic, François Couture wrote: "The live set is emotionally ferocious, sax and trumpet crying with clamped fists in a way that has rarely been heard," while "the studio set is a different story, sounding warm and clean." He concluded: "*The Copenhagen Tapes* are not the Holy Grail of the Ayler fan and surely not a good place for newcomers to start... But it makes a highly welcomed addition to the discography of free jazz." Writing for All About Jazz, Derek Taylor called the album "a package destined to be deemed one of the finest releases of the year. Hell, make that the decade."

In a review of the reissue of the six live tracks, Mark Corroto called the recordings "a free jazz aficionado's manna from heaven", and wrote: "Peacock's agility at the bass is equaled by the grace with which he maintains the architecture of the music. While Ayler is blowing down walls (and tradition), Cherry acts as his lieutenant, at times escorting Ayler before pushing him into new directions." He also noted "Murray's ghostly moans and his abandonment of constant pulse for a fragmented sound." In another review of the live recordings, Colin Fleming declared: "It takes all of two bars on the opening 'Spirits'... for the Albert Ayler Quartet to establish technical mastery. Gary Peacock's bass is instantly embroiled in virtuosic cycling patterns, Don Cherry has traced a melody on trumpet, Sunny Murray's drums have woven a path interconnecting the interests of the other players, and Ayler is clearly ready to reach for the planets on tenor." He continued: "Murray and Peacock are a wonder as a rhythm team that provides more in the way of counterpoint and color than rhythm and flow, while you never know what direction Cherry might move in next; the dude is fast, faster, fastest in formulating his ideas. Ayler sometimes has a full-bodied tone reminiscent of a midcentury tenor master like Sonny Rollins, but there's nothing else remotely Rollins-like—or anybody-like—about his playing. That they work in strands of New Orleans funeral music to complement the interstellar stylings makes this a rogue outfit no other jazz band could touch."

Regarding Don Cherry's contribution, Val Wilmer wrote: "The more lyrical extrovert Cherry, with his quick-thinking and open mind, was the ideal partner for Ayler's loosely assembled melodies and darker moods." In a similar vein, John Litweiler wrote: "On the Copenhagen LP Cherry appropriates aspects of Ayler's style – never before or since has he played so many notes so fast – but he is no extension of Ayler. Rather, in the way he commented upon Sonny Rollins, he became a leavening agent in Ayler's music, too. His blasts of punctuation, his joining in ensemble improvisations, his broken phrase responses lend the music the intimacy of sympathetic, recognizable emotion, as opposed to Ayler's extravagance."

Jeff Schwartz, bassist, Ayler biographer, and author of "Free Jazz: A Research and Information Guide", referred to the recordings made during the 1964 European tour as "amongst the greatest jazz ever recorded.". He also wrote: "The addition of Cherry to the group is only one of the many things that makes these performances so outstanding. Peacock plays arco (bowing) at length for the first time on record with Ayler and this enables him to play long tones with vibrato and extract waves of harmonics, both in imitation of Ayler, and to function as a third melodic voice... Murray too plays a greater variety of textures... perhaps aware that he is being decently recorded, for the first time with Ayler... There is a much greater sense of ensemble and textural variety in this group than in prior Ayler aggregations. The quartet conjures the sounds of marching bands and chamber music, as well as those of traditional and avant-garde jazz. Murray introduces vast plains of silence into his playing, leaving one horn alone with the bass, the two horns in duet, or the soloist a cappella. Sometimes also, all four players will improvise together, making the New Orleans collective improvisation that was latent on *Spiritual Unity* explicit. All of these possibilities would be further explored by Ayler in future, larger, ensembles."

## Content

In an October 2003 interview with *Songfacts*, lead singer Art Alexakis said:

> When Anna was a baby, me and my ex-wife, before we were even married, we would go up to this fancy neighborhood in the West Hills, and look at the houses. We'd get some hamburgers and drive around, kind of fantasize. And then one day after the success of Everclear I was able to buy a house up there. But it wasn't about the money, it was about a different kind of life, giving all of yourself to another person. It's the ultimate romantic song to me. That and "Good Witch Of The North."

# M. Manikandan

**M. Manikandan** is an Indian film director, writer, producer, and cinematographer who works in Tamil cinema. He began his career as an assistant cinematographer in Tamil films. He made his directorial debut with the short film *Wind* (2010) and got his breakthrough in feature films like *Kaaka Muttai* (2015), which won the National Film Award for Best Children's Film. In 2022, he produced the film *Kadaisi Vivasayi*, for which he received the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Tamil.

## Biography

Manikandan was born into a family of police officers in Usilampatti, Madurai District, Tamil Nadu. Due to his father's frequent transfers, Manikandan's family frequently moved. After completing his schooling, he did his diploma in automobile engineering. He developed an interest in photography and started his career as a wedding photographer. During this time, he also designed identification cards for schools and colleges to save money for a digital photography course at the Mindscreen Film Institute, a film school managed by director and cinematographer Rajiv Menon.

In the mid-2000s, he started his film career as an assistant cinematographer in Tamil films. During this time, he co-wrote several scripts for short films. He got his major break with the short film *Wind* (2010), his directorial debut. The film brought him critical acclaim and was screened in several film festivals. The film caught the attention of Tamil film director Vetrimaaran, who helped him produce *Kaaka Muttai* (2015), his feature film debut. The film revolves around two slum-dwelling kids whose solitary desire in life is to taste a pizza. The film premiered at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival and was released theatrically in June 2015. At the 62nd National Film Awards, it won two honours – Best Children's Film and Best Child Artist. The film won the Audience Award for Best Feature at the 13th Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles.

In 2021, Manikandan signed Ilaiyaraaja for the songs and background score for his film *Kadaisi Vivasayi*, but later he replaced Ilaiyaraaja with Santhosh Narayanan as he was not satisfied with the background score of the veteran composer, prompting Ilaiyaraaja to lodge a complaint against the director with the Music Composers Association of India. The film won the National Film Award for the Best Feature Film in Tamil at the 69th National Film Awards.

In February 2024, thieves broke into Manikandan's second home in Usilampatti, stealing money, gold, and silver. The incident received international attention when the burglars returned days later to anonymously return Manikandan's 2022 National Film Award for *Kadaisi Vivasaayi*.

These histories were influential in bringing many readers to regard the Christians of the first centuries as Universalists.

# Thomas Whittemore (Universalist)

**Thomas Whittemore** (January 1, 1800 – March 21, 1861 in Cambridge, Massachusetts) was a Christian Universalist author, speaker and influential member of the Universalist Church of America. He founded and was the editor of *The Trumpet and Universalist* magazine, which succeeded the *Universalist* magazine of Hosea Ballou in 1828.

Like Ballou and Ballou's grand-nephew, Hosea Ballou II, first president of Tufts College, Whittemore contributed to Universalist historiography by identifying precedents for Universalist beliefs in earlier Christianity.

These histories were influential in bringing many readers to regard the Christians of the first centuries as Universalists.

## Massachusetts Legislature

From 1831 to 1836, Whittemore served as Cambridge's representative in the Massachusetts legislature, serving as chair of the committee that oversaw the disestablishment of the Congregational Church and Unitarian Church, to whose special status Whittemore was opposed, from the privileged position they had been accorded in the Massachusetts Constitution. Whittmore held that "no civil government has a right to compel the citizens to support any system of religion whatsoever" and supported calls for a popular referendum on the separation of church and state in 1834. The results of that referendum brought Massachusetts into accord with the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.

He was buried in Mount Auburn Cemetery.

His papers are in the Harvard Divinity School Library at Harvard Divinity School in Cambridge, Massachusetts; the Thomas Whittemore family papers are at Tufts University's Digital Collections and Archives.

After termination of his career as a competitive athlete, he became principal of the part-time boarding school at the Olympic base of Tauberbischofsheim.

During his career as a fencer, he was part of a group of foil fencers from Tauberbischofsheim, or from the competitive centre there, who dominated their field nationally and internationally for almost 15 years.

On 19 July 1982, Matthias Behr, and foil fencing in general, became widely known outside of those interested in the sport when, at the world championship in Rome, Behr's blade broke and struck incumbent world champion Vladimir Smirnov in the eye, leading to Smirnov's death nine days later.

Forty years later, amidst the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Behr called Smirnov's former wife in Ukraine, and gave her son-in-law and two grandchildren refuge during the war.

Matthias Behr was one of the close confidants of Emil Beck and became his successor as team leader of the National German Fencing Team.

title: Thomas Sandys (Conservative politician)

abstract: Colonel Thomas Myles Sandys was a British army officer and Conservative Party politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1885 to 1911. He was born in Blackheath, London, and was the only son of Captain Thomas Sandys of the Royal Navy. Following his education at Shrewsbury School, he was commissioned as an officer in the 73rd Bengal Native Infantry, a military unit of the Honourable East India Company. After fighting in the Indian Rebellion of 1857 he exchanged into the 7th Regiment of Foot, part of the regular British Army. He was to serve in the 7th Foot for twenty years, retiring with the rank of captain. He moved to the family's ancestral home, Graythwaite Hall, near Ulverston which was then in Lancashire. He had the gardens remodelled by Thomas Hayton Mawson. He continued his association with the armed forces as honorary colonel of the 3rd (Militia) Battalion of the Loyal North Lancashire Regiment, a position he held until 1897, and as honorary colonel of the 1st Volunteer Battalion of the regiment from April 1902. He was a staunch Protestant, becoming Grand Master of the Loyal Orange Lodge of England and was a deputy lieutenant for the County of Lancashire. In 1852 he leased the mining rights of his land at Roanhead to the Kennedy Brothers. The mines were among the most productive in the area and were worked until 1942. The Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 created the new constituency of Bootle, and Sandys was elected as the first Member of Parliament for the seat. He retained the seat at subsequent elections, several times being elected unopposed. He resigned his seat in March 1911. He died later that year, at his London home at 87 Jermyn Street, aged 74. He is buried at Brookwood Cemetery, Surrey.

# Thomas Sandys (Conservative politician)

Colonel **Thomas Myles Sandys** (12 May 1837 – 18 October 1911) was a British army officer and Conservative Party politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1885 to 1911.

He was born in Blackheath, London, and was the only son of Captain Thomas Sandys of the Royal Navy. Following his education at Shrewsbury School, he was commissioned as an officer in the 73rd Bengal Native Infantry, a military unit of the Honourable East India Company. After fighting in the Indian Rebellion of 1857 he exchanged into the 7th (or Royal Fusiliers) Regiment of Foot, part of the regular British Army. He was to serve in the 7th Foot for twenty years, retiring with the rank of captain.

He moved to the family's ancestral home, Graythwaite Hall, near Ulverston which was then in Lancashire. He had the gardens remodelled by Thomas Hayton Mawson. He continued his association with the armed forces as honorary colonel of the 3rd (Militia) Battalion of the Loyal North Lancashire Regiment, a position he held until 1897, and as honorary colonel of the 1st Volunteer Battalion of the regiment from April 1902.

text:
# Fred Bechly

**Fred Lorin Bechly** (May 8, 1924 – October 31, 2004) was an American electrical engineer and inventor in the field of color television broadcasting.

## Early life

Fred Bechly was born in Watseka, Illinois, to Edward Bechly and Ferne Smiley. He married and had two children.

In 1944, Bechly graduated from the University of Illinois with a Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering. As a student, Bechly was a member of Triangle Fraternity, and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers.

## Career

Fred Bechly began his career at RCA Corporation in Camden, New Jersey, in 1944, and he worked there for 40 years in the field of color television broadcasting.

Bechly was recognized early in his career, along with engineer H.J. Benzuly, for development of the Tri-color Kinescope Monitor. This development offered significant advantage over the prior RCA technology that used three kinescopes which combined three images using a mirror system to produce a single color picture. The RCA mirror system had been judged inferior to the CBS mechanical method by the Federal Communications Commission. The new Tri-color Kinescope technology was considered to be the RCA "secret weapon" vs. competitor CBS during establishment of the NTSC standard for color television by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission in 1953. RCA assigned model MI-40206 as the prototype which used the NTSC standard as its input. RCA ultimately prevailed with the NTSC standard on December 17, 1953. The Tri-color Kinescope Monitor was then commercialized to become the RCA TM-10A Color Monitor, which was the prototype for subsequent versions of the cathode ray tube color monitor in common use thereafter.

In 1975, Bechly received a special achievement award for outstanding contribution to the RCA TR-600 (color video recorder) program.

Bechly was confirmed as a life member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

## Inventor

Fred Bechly was granted two United States patents, that were important to the field of color television broadcasting, as an employee of the RCA Corporation.

U.S. Patent # 2,874,212 was granted February 17, 1959, for *Generation of Color Images from Monochrome Television Signals*. This technology was applied commercially with the RCA Color Synthesizer program.

U.S. Patent # 3,893,168 was granted July 1, 1975, for *Technique for Minimizing Interference in Video Recorder Reproducer Systems*. Jing Jue Young was co-applicant for this patent. This technology was applied commercially with the RCA TR-600 program.

Mr. Bechly began work on a third patent for *Tracking Head* in support of the technology associated with the TR-800 project, but the rapid pace of technical advancement in video recording equipment at that time eclipsed the need for patent protection on the project.

## Emmy nomination

Fred Bechly was a member of the RCA Corporation team that was nominated for the 1958-1959 award of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for *Development of Color Video Tape*.

The Emmy Award was a combination of several nominations described as "Industry-wide improvement of editing of Video Tape as exemplified by ABC – CBS – NBC".

## Death

Bechly died in West Chester, Pennsylvania, on October 31, 2004, at the age of 80.

title: Maudes Trophy

abstract: The Maudes Trophy is a motorcycle award established in 1923 by George Pettyt, owner of Maudes Motor Mart based in Great Portland Street, London who promoted an impartially-observed endurance test for motorcycles and provided a challenge award to the ACU who participated by acting as the body responsible for providing observers. Pettyt donated a silver trophy for the Auto-Cycle Union (ACU) to award annually, although over the years attempts proved to be infrequent. The last award came in December 2023, when electric motorcycle manufacturer Zero Motorcycles successfully took a pair of DSR/X machines on a 60 hour, 1200 mile, ride starting in Lands End and taking in Lowestoft, Edinburgh and Holyhead, before ending at the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme Awards ceremony in the city of Liverpool.

title: Thomas Bennett (MP for Nottinghamshire)

abstract: Thomas Bennett of Welby, Leicestershire, was a British Whig politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1732 to 1738. Bennett was the eldest son of St John Bennett of Welby and his wife Mary Myddelton, daughter of Sir Thomas Myddelton, 1st Baronet, MP of Chirk, Denbighshire. He matriculated at Christ Church, Oxford on 29 March 1693, aged 18. Bennett was invited by the Duke of Newcastle to sit as Member of Parliament for Nottinghamshire as a stop-gap, keeping the seat warm for Lord Howe who had been appointed Governor of Barbados. Bennett was chosen because of his close friendship with the Duke of Kingston. He was returned unopposed at a by-election on 30 May 1732 under a compromise agreement with the local Tories. He consistently supported the Government, voting for the Excise Bill. In 1733 he tried, on Newcastle's behalf, to persuade the Duke of Kingston to accept a place as Lord of the bedchamber. However, the Duke's aunt, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu was particularly set against her nephew being brought to court, particularly as a tool of the Duke of Newcastle, and castigated him for his support of Bennett. Bennett was returned unopposed again for Nottinghamshire at the 1734 British general election, despite some local discontent because he was a Leicestershire man. Lord Howe died of disease in Barbados in 1735. In the autumn of 1737 Bennett fell ill of a dropsy and died unmarried on 10 June 1738.

Haug joined the band in 2013 following the departure of longtime guitarist Marty Willson-Piper, and, according to Powles, was "surprised to discover how much improvisation was involved in the writing process" of the band; Powles went on to note that Man Woman Life Death Infinity was a unique record for the band because prior to recording, they set aside time to structure the songs instead of relying largely upon improvisation during the recording process. Matt Collar at AllMusic gave the album four stars, stating that it "sounds utterly fresh, even as it's in keeping with their early albums. Rather than backing away from the gothy, new wave psychedelia of their youth, just as they revisited The Blurred Crusade, here they've embraced that aesthetic and imbued it with the emotional maturity and poetic gravitas that comes with their decades-long space rock journey.

# I'm Alive (Electric Light Orchestra song)

"**I'm Alive**" is a song by the Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), released as a single in May 1980. It is featured in a sequence near the beginning of the feature film *Xanadu*. The song also appears on the soundtrack album *Xanadu*.

## Background

In the film the song is heard as the Muses emerge from a graffiti-like portrait; Olivia Newton-John, playing Kira (Terpsichore), emerges last. The film's version of the song contains a fairly lengthy instrumental introduction, a small segment of which is used for the album version.

The single's B-side, "Drum Dreams", is also featured in the film at the beginning of the Xanadu nightclub grand opening scene and segues into the movie title song. "Drum Dreams" was also used as the B-side of the "All Over the World" single.

## Reception

*Cash Box* said that it has "adept movement from electronically treated vocals to Lynne's lead". *Record World* said that "keyboard magic abounds with a Beatlesque melody line & heavenly falsetto choruses".

***I Will Cure You*** is the only album by English comedian Vic Reeves. It was released in 1991 by Island Records, produced by Steve Beresford, Andy Metcalfe and Philip Oakey and re-released in 1999 by Universal Music's Spectrum label. The album peaked at number 16 on the UK Albums Chart and features the number-one single "Dizzy", which was a collaboration with the Wonder Stuff.

## Content

The album includes a mixture of covers and original songs in a variety of musical styles, many of which were originally introduced on Reeves' debut Channel 4 comedy show *Vic Reeves Big Night Out*. Reeves' comedy partner Bob Mortimer sings alongside him on "Summer of '75", with Jonathan Ross providing whistling on "I Remember Punk Rock". Reeves has said that he did not want to make a novelty or comedy album but something more serious, and that for him being a singer is secondary as his comedy will always come first.

The sleeve and insert of the album features artwork and text created and written by Reeves. The sleeve notes also contain reproductions of three photographs with the legend "Where are Vic's boots?". Along with accompanying Ordnance Survey grid references they apparently pointed to three pairs of Chelsea boots that had been hidden by Reeves and Mortimer during an extended road trip around the UK. The grid references point to locations in Glen Etive in the Scottish Highlands, the Lake District in Cumbria and the Wash in East Anglia. One pair of boots, containing an original Polaroid photograph of Reeves with the boots, was located in Glen Etive by two Scottish fans.

## Singles

Three singles were released from the album: "Born Free", "Dizzy" and "Abide with Me", with various bonus tracks on each. The three singles were released on cassette, CD and 7", 10" and 12" records, with "Born Free" also being released as a picture disc.

"Born Free" was the first single to be released from the album, billed as 'Vic Reeves and the Roman Numerals' and reached number six on the UK Singles Chart. It is a cover of the Matt Monro song written by John Barry, which Reeves directly mentions in the song via a spoken-word section in the middle of the track. Although there are no musician credits on the sleeve, Reeves claims the track was created by members of Swing Out Sister and he just turned up for a few hours to do the vocal. The single's bonus track was a reworking of "Oh! Mr Songwriter", an original song by Reeves and Steve McGuire, with which Reeves ended each episode of *Vic Reeves Big Night Out*.

The second single to be released was "Dizzy", a collaboration with the Wonder Stuff which reached number one on the UK Singles Chart and remained there for two weeks. Mark E. Smith claimed Reeves had previously asked him if he and his band the Fall would do the collaboration, offering a £30,000 payment. Smith was up for it, but the rest of the band were unsure, with guitarist Craig Scanlon declining. As the song is a cover, neither Reeves nor the Wonder Stuff received any publishing royalties.

The final track to be released as a single was "Abide with Me", a dance reworking of a Christian hymn, produced by The Grid. It was the least successful of the album's singles, reaching number 47 on the UK Singles Chart. The single's bonus track was a cover of "Black Night" by Deep Purple, produced by Philip Oakey of the Human League. Oakey went on to appear in Reeves and Mortimer's television pilot *The Weekenders*. The sleeve of the single features an oil self-portrait by Reeves entitled "Bishop", which was later exhibited at the Britart Gallery, London.

## Music videos

The music video for "Born Free" shows Reeves singing on stage with his name in lights. Two female singers provide backing vocals and dance behind him throughout. During the video, various dogs jump onto the stage and by the end, the stage is littered with them. Reeves is also seen riding a motorbike in front of a green screen video. This is the only video which does not feature Bob Mortimer. During Reeves' performance of "Born Free" on *Top of the Pops*, he is seen turning the pages of a flip chart which contains various images of birds.

"Dizzy"'s music video shows Reeves trying unsuccessfully to get into the building where he and the Wonder Stuff will be performing. He ends up breaking in via the roof and falls onto the stage where he immediately begins to sing. The stage is stacked with a number of washing machines, one of which Reeves opens. The *Top of the Pops* performance of "Dizzy" also featured washing machines, with Reeves opening many machine doors in an attempt to find a camera inside one which he was meant to sing into, but it had been removed without his knowledge. Bob Mortimer appears in the background of the music video with Wonder Stuff frontman Miles Hunt, playing a tambourine and singing backing vocals. The music video was directed by Tony Van Den Ende and produced by Cathy Hood.

The music video for "Abide With Me" shows a muddy Reeves riding a horse around a farmyard where Bob Mortimer appears to be working. Reeves remains on horseback for the entirety of the video and also appears to perform several trick riding feats (performed by a stunt double). At the end of the video, the animals in the farmyard have a disco and Reeves rides the horse into the distance, stopping to rear in silhouette in front of the moon. The video was directed by Peter Christopherson, who allowed Reeves to choose what he'd like to do in the video. Reeves requested "a lectern, and a horse. I intend to ride a horse."

*Four Golden Memories*, a VHS containing the music videos to *I Will Cure You'*s three singles, was released by Island Records in 1991. It also contains a live performance of "Meals on Wheels" and "Dizzy", as part of *Vic Reeves Big Night Out On Tour*, the latter of which features the Wonder Stuff.

title: Victor Săhleanu

abstract: Victor Aurelian Săhleanu was a Romanian physician and anthropologist. He was a leading figure in anthropology in his country from the late 1960s until his death.

text:
# Victor Săhleanu

**Victor Aurelian Săhleanu** (Romanian: \[ˈviktor a.ureliˈan səhˈle̯anu\]; 19 January 1924  26 August 1997) was a Romanian physician and anthropologist. He was a leading figure in anthropology in his country from the late 1960s until his death.

## Biography

### Education and early career

Săhleanu was born in Gura Humorului, in the Bukovina region of the Kingdom of Romania. After finishing secondary school at the Aron Pumnul High School in Cernăuți, he entered the medical faculty of the University of Bucharest, from which he graduated in 1948. At that point, with the onset of the Communist regime, the institution became the Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy. Between 1944 and 1946, he took part-time courses at the literature and philosophy faculty as well, but did not earn a degree. In 1949, he became a doctor of medicine and surgery, with a thesis on "Considerations regarding Field Medicine". Ștefan-Marius Milcu presided over the doctoral committee, which also included Constantin Ion Parhon. He began working in hospitals while still a student, and during 1946, was a junior teaching assistant in the anatomical pathology department.

After graduation in 1948, he won a competition to become an intern at the Parhon-led endocrinology institute, where he was also a researcher from 1954 to 1961. He worked in endocrinology for a total of seventeen years, during which he founded the institute's morphopathology laboratory. From 1950 to 1952, he was a peer reviewer at the Milcu-led anthropology collective, a section of the endocrinology institute that was essentially a continuation of the Francisc Rainer-founded anthropology institute. In 1954, he signed up for part-time classes at the physics and mathematics faculty in Bucharest, graduating in 1961.

### Involvement in anthropology and legacy

In 1963, he became a primary care endocrinologist and, at the request of Eugen A. Pora, began teaching courses in biophysics and biomathematics at Babeș-Bolyai University in Cluj. In 1965, he earned the title of Doctor of Science. The same year, he was transferred from the endocrinology to the geriatrics institute. In 1969, he was transferred from Babeș-Bolyai and named adjunct scientific director at Bucharest's center for anthropological research; from that point until his death, he was at the forefront of anthropology in Romania. In 1974, when the center became a laboratory within the Victor Babeș institute, Săhleanu became its director, serving for eight years.

In 1982, due to the so-called "Transcendental Meditation Affair", he was excluded from scientific life. His works were withdrawn from libraries, his name could no longer appear in books or publications, and he was transferred to work as a doctor at a hospital in the Titan neighborhood. In 1984, aged 60, he retired upon his request. Between 1982 and 1984, he taught postgraduate courses in anthropology at a United Nations demographic center in Bucharest. As an anthropologist, he developed an interdisciplinary approach to the field that combined biology and culture, exploring the relationship between anatomical features and their behavioral, symbolic and cultural significance. In 1980, he was editor-in-chief of Romania's first atlas of biological anthropology.

In February 1990, after the fall of the regime, he was restored as head of the Romanian Academy's anthropological research center, by government decree. He died in 1997, following complications from a cerebral hemorrhage. He and his wife Zoe, a pediatrician, had two sons: Adrian George, who became a philologist and psychoanalyst; and Valentin, later an architect.

Săhleanu published over 2000 articles and 60 books, in fields that included methodology, medical psychology and psychoanalysis, ethics, aesthetics and the history of medicine and science. He kept a diary, from age 17 until his final days, that reached over 25,000 pages. He was also an essayist and poet, publishing volumes in 1961, 1972, 1977 and 1997; and was among the founders of the Romanian Society of Writer and Journalist Physicians.

Alexandru Ofrim stated that Săhleanu wrote communist propaganda against erotic pleasure.

# Francis Cabot Lowell (judge)

**Francis Cabot Lowell** (January 7, 1855 – March 6, 1911) was a United States circuit judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit and of the United States Circuit Courts for the First Circuit and previously was a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts.

## Early life

Lowell was born on January 7, 1855, in Boston, Massachusetts. He was the only son of George Gardner Lowell (1830–1885) and Mary Ellen (née Parker) Lowell (1832–1915), a daughter of James Parker. His sister, Anna Parker Lowell, married their distant cousin and Francis' law partner, A. Lawrence Lowell, the 22nd President of Harvard University.

His paternal grandfather was industrialist Francis Cabot Lowell, Jr. (son of Francis Cabot Lowell, namesake of Lowell, Massachusetts), and his paternal uncle was historian Edward Jackson Lowell.

He received an Artium Baccalaureus degree in 1876 from Harvard College and a Bachelor of Laws in 1879 from Harvard Law School.

## Career

Lowell entered private practice in Boston from 1880 to 1898 with his well-known cousin A. Lawrence Lowell. He was private secretary to Justice Horace Gray of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts from 1880 to 1882. He was a city councilman for Boston from 1889 to 1891. He was a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1895.

### Federal judicial service

Lowell was nominated by President William McKinley on January 5, 1898, to a seat on the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts vacated by Judge Thomas Leverett Nelson. He was confirmed by the United States Senate on January 10, 1898, and received his commission the same day. His service terminated on April 15, 1905, due to his elevation to the First Circuit.

Lowell was nominated by President Theodore Roosevelt on February 15, 1905, to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit and the United States Circuit Courts for the First Circuit, to a new joint seat authorized by 33 Stat. 611. He was confirmed by the Senate on February 23, 1905, and received his commission the same day. His service terminated on March 6, 1911, due to his death in Boston.

## Personal life

On November 27, 1882, Lowell was married to Cornelia Prime Baylies (1859–1922) in New York City. Cornelia, who was born in Newport, Rhode Island, was a daughter of New York merchant Edmund Lincoln Baylies and Nathalie Elizabeth (née Ray) Baylies. Her brother was the prominent New York lawyer Edmund L. Baylies. Among her first cousins were Elizabeth Livingston Cavendish-Bentinck (the wife of George Cavendish-Bentinck), Ruth Livingston Mills (the wife of Ogden Mills), and Robert Ray Hamilton.

He was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society in 1895.

# Matvey Levenstein

**Matvey Levenstein** (born 1960) is a Russian-American painter best known for his oil on copper, wood, and linen; and sumi ink on paper depictions of landscapes and interior/still lifes that explore themes of history and representation. Invoking the intersection at which avant-garde cinema meets the tradition of European painting, Levenstein's work explores and embodies the object-image relationship.

## Life and education

Levenstein was born in 1960 in Moscow, U.S.S.R. He attended the Moscow Architectural Institute before immigrating to the United States from the Soviet Union as a political refugee as part of Jewish immigration in 1980. He has a B.F.A. from the Art Institute of Chicago, and received his M.F.A. from the Yale School of Art.

He lives and works in New York City.

## Career

Levenstein is represented by Kasmin Gallery (New York) and Galleria Lorcan O'Neill (Rome, Italy). His work was presented in solo exhibitions at Kasmin in 2019 and 2021, and at Galleria Lorcan O'Neill in 2007, 2012, 2017 and 2023. He has also had several solo exhibitions at Larissa Goldston Gallery (New York), and the Jack Tilton Gallery (New York).

Levenstein has been the recipient of several awards and honors including the 2022 Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Biennial Award, the American Academy in Rome, Rome Prize; the Penny McCall Foundation Award, the Marie Walsh Sharpe Foundation Studio Grant, the Jewish Foundation's Katherine J. Horwich Grant, and the Anna Louise Raymond Traveling Fellowship from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

His work is included in the collections of the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Denver Art Museum, and The Progressive Art Collection. Recent publications featuring Levenstein's paintings are *Landscape Painting Now: From Pop Abstraction to New Romanticism* (2019) and *(Nothing but) Flowers* (2021), among others.

## Work

The subjects of Levenstein's paintings are the subjects of autonomy. Atmospheric landscapes that suggest the possibility of the sublime, and domestic interiors with implied privacy and personhood, portray the conditions under which an object of autonomous painting might be possible. Invoking the intersection at which avant-garde cinema meets the tradition of European painting, Levenstein's work explores and embodies the object-image relationship.

Reviewing his 2019 solo exhibition at Kasmin Gallery, Peter Schjeldahl wrote in *The New Yorker*, "Can loveliness shock? Yes, as witness the fantastically skilled and sensitive neo- or para- or faux-Romantic (you decide) work of Matvey Levenstein ... Caspar David Friedrich comes to mind as an ancestral spirit, but the work recalls no specific precedent. Its tenor is coolly confident, assuming a viewer's empathy. That jolts. You would expect a wink or a nudge, or a smack of naïveté or perversity in so atavistic a style. But no soap. Levenstein's temerity fascinates."

Robert Becker, writing for *The* *New Criterion*, remarked "There's an all-over radiance coming from somewhere beneath the surfaces of Levenstein's paintings, dispersing light evenly like a fine mist on a still morning. It's an artist's trick and heaven knows how he mastered it."

Levenstein acknowledges that since the early 90s he has painted from photographs. In 1995 he presented a group of work at Jack Tilton Gallery of paintings and drawings based on black and white photographs of his family, Russian Jews, and bourgeois interiors. He would go on to use his own photography as the basis for his work, focusing on imagery that he described as "less nameable situations." Levenstein has explained his cinematic approach to painting and his use of photography, saying "I realized I was not interested in the photograph as much as the projected image, the way a movie is projected onto the screen. That is something that I wanted my painting to physically function much closer to, rather than it resembling a photograph, even though I was using photographs and engaging in the dialogue with an object of a photograph. Later, they became almost like scenes from a movie."

Thyrza Nihols Goodeve, responding to Levenstein's series of Church interiors, described Levenstein as "a painter of exquisite quiet where interiority seems to emanate from every brushstroke, Matvey Levenstein presents the interiors of religious buildings–here the church, the temple, and the cathedral–with a sense of temporality and sentiment far removed from the frantic pastiche of the cut and paste frenzy of the Internet age. In fact these spaces come from "no time" for time is not their métier, paint is ... Neither authentic nor kitsch but rooted in the fundamentals of painting "by moving backward you in fact can step ahead." ... Levenstein wields painterly sentiment into a kind of Brechtean alienation effect."

## Teaching positions

Levenstein was a Visiting Artist at The Cooper Union School for the Advancement of Science and Art, Tyler School of Art, and New York University. He was a Visiting Critic at the School of the Arts, Columbia University and Yale School of Art.

Levenstein has held teaching positions at the School of the Arts, Columbia University; Pratt Institute; The Cooper Union School for the Advancement of Science and Art; Yale School of Art; Rhode Island School of Design; Tyler School of Art; Yale Norfolk Summer School of Art; Princeton University; and New York University.

Levenstein currently teaches at the School of Visual Art, New York, NY.

# I Will Fail You

"**I Will Fail You**" is the third single by American Christian metal band Demon Hunter from their seventh studio album, *Extremist*. The song is the band's most commercially successful single to date.

## About

Vocalist Ryan Clark has said the song is about the scrutiny the band faces, and how they aren't "holy enough" for some people, no matter how much they express their beliefs.

## Music video

The song's music video begins with vocalist Ryan Clark standing on the side of the road, looking distraught. As the song begins, he gets in the car and begins to sing the song's lyrics while driving. After the first chorus, it begins to rain. During the second chorus, the rain stops and Clark lights a cigarette, while still driving; after a while he takes some pills to keep him awake. Near the song's end, he starts to fall asleep and the video cuts to someone who has been tied up and gagged. As Clark falls asleep, the video pans out to reveal the person is sitting in the car next to him. As the video ends, the headlights of an oncoming car can be seen as the other man starts to panic.

The video was directed by photographer Caleb Kuhl.

## Reception

Greg Kennelty of Metal Injection compared Clark's vocals to that of the late David Gold of Woods of Ypres. Kennelty said the pitch correction is noticeable, but overall declared the song to be good. Axl Rosenberg of MetalSucks compared the song negatively to post-grunge band Staind.
