# Mike Storen

**Mark** "**Mike**" **Storen Jr.** (September 14, 1935 – May 7, 2020) was an American sports executive in basketball, baseball, and football. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame and a stint in the US Marines, he began his career with the Chicago Zephyrs and became their promotions director after their move to Baltimore. He subsequently served as the first general manager of the Indiana Pacers from 1967 to 1969, before assuming the positions of GM and part-owner of the Kentucky Colonels. He became the commissioner of the American Basketball Association (ABA) in 1973, and played an instrumental role in the league's merger with the National Basketball Association (NBA) three years later.

## Early life

Storen was born on September 14, 1935, to Mark Storen and Marion Lois Riley, and grew up in Michigan City, Indiana. He graduated from the University of Notre Dame, where he played defensive back on their football team during his freshman year. He proceeded to serve in the Marine Corps, participating in their Toys for Tots program.

## Career

Storen career in sports management began in the early 1960s, when he successfully applied to become a ticket seller for the NBA's Chicago Zephyrs after seeing their job advertisement in a newspaper. He remained with the team after their move to Baltimore in 1963 and subsequently rose to the position of promotions director. Storen then became the business manager and assistant general manager of the NBA's Cincinnati Royals.

Storen became the first vice president and general manager of the Indiana Pacers of the ABA in 1967. He played a key role in selecting the team's name and colors, as well as in creating their first logo. Under Storen's leadership, the Pacers brought in Bobby Leonard as their head coach and future Hall of Famers Roger Brown and Mel Daniels. These moves paid off, as the team's nine seasons in the ABA saw them win three championships and reach five Finals.

In April 1969, Storen and others including – future Governor of Kentucky John Y. Brown, Jr. – bought the ABA's Kentucky Colonels franchise. Storen became president and general manager of the Colonels. Storen resigned his positions with the Colonels in 1973 as Brown bought out the other investors and assumed more operational involvement than Storen thought appropriate. Storen had a rocky relationship with the Louisville media after firing Colonels head coach Gene Rhodes, a favorite of the local reporters, due to Rhodes' allegedly mediocre performance. Rhodes succeeded Storen as general manager of the Colonels in 1973, when Storen became Commissioner of the ABA.

Storen became ABA commissioner in 1973. His initiative of having the fledgling league recruit undergraduate college stars like Julius Erving galvanized the drive toward ABA–NBA merger in 1976. Storen would leave this position to become an owner of the league's Memphis Sounds franchise with Isaac Hayes and Kemmons Wilson. After the 1974–75 season, the Sounds were sold and became the Baltimore Claws. Storen became president and general manager of the Atlanta Hawks of the NBA in 1977.

In the late 1980s and through the 1990s, Storen was commissioner of the Continental Basketball Association, Global Basketball Association, and Indoor Professional Football League. His final job in sports was with the Georgia Force in 2002.

## Personal life

Storen had three children, Mark, Duke, and Hannah, from his first wife, also named Hannah. He also had two stepdaughters from his second marriage to Lynn. His daughter Hannah Storm is a broadcast personality on ESPN, and also studied at Notre Dame. He had 14 grandchildren and was a relative of Major League Baseball player Drew Storen.

## Death

Storen died on May 7, 2020, at the Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. He was 84, and had been suffering from a rare form of cancer. News of his death was first announced by his daughter Hannah via Twitter. A message of condolence conveyed by the Indiana Pacers praised Storen, stating that it was "impossible to overstate the impact \[he\] had on our franchise", from choosing the team's name, logo, and colors to assembling their staff and players. They also credited him for being "the foundation for the tradition of success the Pacers maintain to this day".

These acts will prevent all further development in the peninsula area.

## Description

The peninsula is created by a meander in the Youghiogheny River which flows north into Pennsylvania from West Virginia and Maryland carrying seeds from that region. The warmer microclimate inside the river gorge allows these plants to survive. It is a good example of a late successional forest in the Allegheny Mountains.

The edge of Ferncliff Peninsula Natural Area is rimmed with a 2 mile loop hiking trail of moderate difficulty that features prehistoric plant fossils along the eastern edge near Ohiopyle Falls.

# The Isle of Pingo Pongo

***The Isle of Pingo Pongo*** is a 1938 *Merrie Melodies* cartoon supervised by Tex Avery. The short was released on May 28, 1938, and features an early version of Elmer Fudd. This is the first of a series of travelogue spoofs, and the first Warner Bros. "spot gag" cartoon, where each vignette is punctuated by a moment of blackout.

## Plot

The short follows a cruise ship on a trip from New York to the island, presumably located in the South Seas. The ship sails past the Statue of Liberty, who acts as a traffic cop, past the "Canary Islands" and "Sandwich Islands".

The cartoon revolves around themes of jazz and primitivism, and is set on a remote island. The central character is an early version of Elmer Fudd known as Elmer, and most of the cartoon consists of travelogue-type narration and blackout gags, many including Elmer. The inhabitants of Pingo-Pongo are mostly tall, black, and have big feet and lips. Like other cartoons of the era, the native inhabitants resemble animals and reflect stereotypes of the time. The natives are at first playing drums, then break into a jazz beat, still described as a "primitive savage rhythm," which leads the audience to connect the savage jungle to modern jazz music.

There is a running gag with Elmer where he says, "Now Boss?", but the narrator keeps saying "Not now". That is, until the end, where the sun fails to set when he says, "as the sun sinks slowly into the West". Elmer reappears and says "Now Boss?" The boss says "Yeah, now!" Elmer shoots the sun, making it sink into the West and ending the film.

# The Lost Dreamer

***The Lost Dreamer*** is a young adult fantasy debut novel written by American writer Lizz Huerta. It was published by Farrar Straus Giroux in March 2022.

## Background

The idea for the novel came about through Huerta's recurring dreams that she's had since she was a teenager. Huerta, who is of Mexican, Puerto Rican and Indigenous descent, describes the want to create a world in the fantasy genre that felt like Mesoamerica and was representative of her lineage. She utilized visualization meditation as a writing tool when creating *The Lost Dreamer*.

The story of *The Lost Dreamer* was written originally written as two different books. Huerta rewrote these two books into one in the style of a dual narrative during the COVID pandemic.

Huerta has stated that her writing is influenced by *The Clan of the Cave Bear* books by Jean M. Auel.

## Plot summary

The book is narrated by two characters alternating in twenty-two chapters. It is the story of Indir and Saya, women born with the gift of entering the Dream, and their roles in finding the Lost Dreamer. The story takes place in a Mesoamerican-inspired world.

Indir is born to a lineage of female Dreamers from the city of Alcanzeh. Indir loses her ability to Dream after Dreaming for King Anz the night he died. The last night Indir enters the Dream, she sees Alcan, the son of King Anz, burning his chest, over a sphere of water with the reflection of the mark of the Twin Serpents, calling into question the legitimacy of Alcan’s right as future king. Indir’s aunts, Kupi and Ixara, Dream that Indir will lose what she loves most, that she must leave Alcanzeh, and return when she has found the Lost Dreamer. Alcan arrives in Alcanzeh, with an army of Fire warriors and is unwilling to participate in the rituals of the Dreamers. Instead, Alcan demands that a sacrificial game be played between the Fire warriors and the Avex warriors. Alcan’s brother, Inkop, will fight for the Fire warriors and Ovis, son of Tavovis, will fight for the Avex warriors. Kupi and Ixara are assumed to be dead after their hair and blood are found on the altar of the Two Serpents. Indir leaves Alcanzeh in disguise with the help of Raru, an Ilkan protector of Dreamers, Dua, a temple worker with the gift of fire and Avex Warrior Ovis, her chosen.

Indir gives birth to a Dreamer, Saya, named after Ovis’s mother. Shortly after her birth, Saya is kidnapped by Celay, a woman who helped aid the birth Saya. Indir searches for Saya but is unable to track her because of a protective necklace that was placed on her at birth. Indir finally finds Saya as a young woman washed ashore with two other travelers.

Saya is self-taught in Dreaming. Saya is raised by a cruel woman named Celay, who lies to others by claiming to heal by abusing Saya’s gifts. Celay tricks a woman, Ruta, who is trying to conceive by giving her a root that is meant to prevent conception. Saya defies Celay by telling Ruta the truth about what Celay has done. Ruta and her chosen partner, Kinet, befriend Saya. Saya, Kinet and Ruta discover a Story written on the walls of a temple involving a comet. Saya’s protective necklace is taken by a large bird while Celay is away from the village. While Dreaming, Saya sees a man singing who knows her name. She realizes that the man is her father and that he loves her, contrary to the story Celay told her about her birth. Saya accompanies Kinet and Ruta to the Night Bird Ceremony, a ritual for queer families to conceive. Nahi, an Ilkan woman, finds Saya at the ceremony and warns her that she is in danger. Saya decides to leave with Nahi for protection.

While traveling through the jungle, Saya discovers that she has the gift of healing and the gift of communicating with plants through Song. Saya and Nahi reach the coast and are met by Akhal and her daughter Yixu, who offer to travel with them across the water. The travelers are attacked by a spider monster amidst an unnatural storm. Nahi is taken into the sea by the monster and Akhal succumbs to a coma after ardently defending the boat. When they reach land, a woman cooks for Saya and Yixu as they look after Akhal. When Akhal awakes she speaks the woman’s name-Indir. Indir tells Saya that she is her birth mother. Saya takes Indir into the Dream using a piliti root infusion. They see Indir’s sisters, Delu and Zeri, who warn them not to return the Alcanzeh. At the end of the novel, Saya decides that she will follow the Story and return to Alcanzeh and asks Indir if she will come with her.

## Genre

*The Lost Dreamer* is written in the genre of young adult fantasy. Huerta set the coming of age story in a Mesoamerican inspired world. Huerta centered women in her story as the leading characters, while men were written in supportive roles or as antagonists to the main characters to convey how, as described by Alex Brown of Locus Magazine, "patriarchy destroys everything it touches."

*The Lost Dreamer* is described as a love story to family and to the strong women in the author's life. The narrative explores the relationship between gifts and how they are manifested within and outside of tradition and practice.

## Publication

The novel was published by Farrar Straus Giroux Books for Young Readers in March 2022 in the formats of hardcover, paperback, audiobook, and e-book. The audiobook is narrated by Elisa Melendez and Inés del Castillo. The book cover illustrations were done by illustrator Samuel Rodriguez. The Lost Dreamer is the first novel in a duology with the second novel expected to be published in 2023.

## Reception

Daniel A. Olivas of the *Los Angeles Review of Books* described *The Lost Dreamer* as "a stunning debut novel by a writer who is in total control." *Entertainment Weekly* writer Seija Rankin wrote that it was the "buzziest fantasy debut of the spring." Reviewer Alex Brown of *Locus Magazine* described it as a "vibrant novel that focused on the importance of the tradition and the love of family."

Writer for *The San Diego Union-Tribune*, Seth Combs, commented on how Huerta flipped two common tropes of young adult fiction by not depending on romance to drive the plot, and for not heavily relying on action sequences or plot twists. Combs wrote the book relies on "Huerta's talent as a storyteller to build and sustain the reader's interest."

*The Lost Dreamer* was featured in the top 10 of the New York Public Library's 50 Best Books for Teens.

The album is also notable for its five tracks which feature Captain Beefheart (known in early recordings by his birth name, Don Vliet, and later Don Van Vliet): "Lost in a Whirlpool", a blues parody from around 1958–59 in which Beefheart sings of being flushed down the toilet; "Tiger Roach", a rhythm and blues track from around three years later; "I'm a Band Leader" from 1969, a spoken word piece written by Zappa and read by Beefheart; "Alley Cat", a blues number in which Zappa plays guitar with two members of Beefheart's Magic Band, and "The Grand Wazoo", a spoken word piece recorded in 1969, to which Zappa added a Synclavier track in 1992 . Dan Glaister, writing in *The Guardian*, judged the first to be "a passable Bessie Smith cover", adding, "while "Alley Cat" could be a missing track from *Clear Spot*."

Elsewhere on the disc are included a number of alternate, earlier versions of compositions which were later released on Zappa's studio albums. *The Lost Episodes'* version of "Any Way the Wind Blows", for instance, was recorded in Cucamonga in around 1963three years before its appearance on *Freak Out!* (1966). And the version of "Fountain of Love" here was recorded around the same time, but not released until *Cruising with Ruben & the Jets* (1968). Several outtakes include the original versions of: "Inca Roads" and "RDNZL", along with a version of *Wino Man* featuring Ricky Lancelotti on lead vocals. The final track is the original version of *Sharleena* from the aborted 2nd *Hot Rats* LP recordings in 1970; featuring Sugarcane Harris on lead vocal.

"The Big Squeeze" was recorded in 1967 for a Luden's cough drops television commercial. Zappa's music was matched with animation by filmmaker Ed Seeman and the advertisement won a Clio Award for "Best Use of Sound". The edit on this album lacks narration added by Seeman.

Some of the tracks had been previously released on the *Mystery Disc*, which was originally part of *The Old Masters* box set and was released on CD in 1998. "Run Home Slow" is heard in stereo on *The Lost Episodes* but in mono on *Mystery Disc* (and probably a different take). "Charva" is heard in mono on *The Lost Episodes* but in stereo on *Mystery Disc*. "Wedding Dress Song" and Handsome Cabin Boy" are the same versions as on *Mystery Disc* but on the latter album the two songs feature as one track.

# Marie-José Béguelin

**Marie-José Béguelin** (born 1949) is a Swiss linguist specializing in the Romance languages.

## Biography

Béguelin was born in Delémont, Switzerland, on July 21, 1949. Her father was the politician, writer and journalist Roland Béguelin. After primary and secondary school in Delémont from 1956 to 1965, she studied for her Matura at the Cantonal School of Porrentruy, specializing in classical languages (Latin and Greek). She then studied in Paris, obtaining a degree in classical philology from the Sorbonne (Paris IV) and a certificate in classical Indology from Paris III in 1972. After further study and a time spent teaching Latin in Milan, she moved to Geneva in 1976 to study general linguistics at the University of Geneva. Her doctorate was awarded there in 1984 for a thesis on comparative Indo-European linguistics, specifically the morphology of Latin nouns.

Béguelin has spent her career at universities in French-speaking Switzerland. From 1979 to 1982 she taught historical linguistics at the University of Lausanne. Between 1983 and 2001 she worked at the University of Fribourg, initially as a lecturer, then as associate professor. In 1990 she was appointed extraordinary professor at the University of Neuchâtel, where she became ordinary professor in 2001.

## Honours and awards

Béguelin has been the recipient of numerous honours and awards. Her doctoral thesis received the prestigious Charles Bally Prize in 1985. Between 1999 and 2003 she was the holder of the Joseph Houziaux Prize for study of the French language and its dialects, awarded by the Royal Academy of Science, Letters and Fine Arts of Belgium. She has been a member of the Jurassian Institute of Science, Letters and Arts since 2003, of the Royal Academy of French Language and Literature of Belgium since 2008, and of the Academia Europaea since 2012. In 2008 she was appointed Knight of the Ordre des Palmes académiques of France.

## Research

Béguelin's academic work has ranged widely across comparative Indo-European linguistics, French linguistics and varieties of French, syntax, anaphora, discourse, language policy, and epistemology of the language sciences.

title: Fernando Mendes (physician)

text:
# Fernando Mendes (physician)

**Fernando Mendes** (died 15 November 1724) was a Portuguese Jewish physician.

## Biography

Mendes was born of Jewish parentage in the province of Beira, Portugal. He graduated M.D. at Montpellier in December 1667, and became physician to John IV of Portugal. When Catherine of Braganza was on her way to England to become the wife of Charles II, she was attacked during her journey through New Castile with erysipelas, and Mendes was sent to her assistance. He gained such favour with the princess that she made him a member of her household, and desired him to accompany her to England and settle there. Mendes reached this country on 25 October 1669, and was appointed physician in ordinary to the queen. He was one of the many physicians in regular attendance on Charles II in his last illness. By the charter of James II he was created a fellow of the College of Physicians, and was admitted on 12 April 1687, but at the accession of William and Mary his name was removed from the roll. Mendes died in London on 15 Nov. 1724 (Hist. Reg. vol. ix., Chron. Diary, p. 48). He was buried in the Velho Cemetery in Mile End.

By his wife, Miss Marques, he had a son James (d. 1739), and a daughter Catherine (named after the queen, who acted as godmother), born about 1678 in the royal palace of Somerset House (Gent. Mag. 1812, pt. i. p. 22). Moses Mendes, the dramatist, was his grandson.

Mendes's only published work was his thesis for the degree of M.D., entitled ‘Stadium Apollinare, sive Progymnasmata medica, ad Monspeliensis Apollinis Laurum consequendam,’ 4to, Lyons, 1668. Prefixed is his portrait engraved by N. Regnesson. A letter in Portuguese from him to John Mendes da Costa, dated 1663, is among the Additional MSS. in the British Museum (No. 29868, f. i.)

text:
# Maria Luisa Zubizarreta

**Maria Luisa Zubizarreta** is professor emerita of linguistics at the University of Southern California.

## Education and personal life

Zubizarreta was born and raised in Asunción, Paraguay. She obtained her Maîtrise in General Linguistics from Paris 8 University in 1978 and her PhD in Linguistics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1982, with a dissertation entitled *On the Relationship of the Lexicon to Syntax*. She held various academic positions before arriving at the University of Southern California (USC), where she held a position from 1988 until her retirement.

She was married to fellow USC linguist, Jean-Roger Vergnaud.

## Research

Zubizarreta has conducted her research within the framework of generative linguistics. More precisely, she is interested in linguistic theory as a model of mental competence and performance. Her approach is comparative and considers interface issues ranging from the relation between the lexicon and syntax (Zubizarreta 1987) to the prosody and syntax of focus (Zubizarreta 1998).

Zubizarreta has conducted empirical research into issues dealing with second language acquisition, focusing on the mental grammar of the learners as they develop interlanguage (Zubizarreta & Nava 2011). Her work has also explored person-related phenomena from a semantic perspective in different languages, including the use of person features in Paraguayan Guaraní (Zubizarreta & Pancheva 2017a, b).

## Honors

A workshop, entitled *Person and Perspective*, and a related Festschrift were organized in her honor in 2019. The Festschrift, published by Cambridge University Press, is entitled *Exploring Interfaces*.

title: The Journal of Business

abstract: The Journal of Business was an academic journal published by the University of Chicago Press. It aimed to cover "a comprehensive range of areas, including business finance and investment, money and banking, marketing, security markets, business economics, accounting practices, social issues and public policy, management organization, statistics and econometrics, administration and management, international trade and finance, and personnel, industrial relations, and labor." Originally titled The Journal of Business of the University of Chicago when it debuted in 1928, the journal shortened its name to The Journal of Business in 1954. Its broad scope became a liability as specialization in business scholarship grew and numerous specialized journals appeared. Rather than keeping it as a generalist journal or narrowing its focus, the faculty of the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business decided to cease publication of the journal at the end of 2006. Some of its issues are now freely available at JSTOR.

Je-ha escapes and returns to South Korea, where he is offered work as a bodyguard by Choi Yoo-jin, the owner of JSS Security Company and wife of presidential candidate Jang Se-joon. Je-ha accepts the job in exchange for resources that he needs to exact revenge on another presidential candidate Park Kwan-soo, who previously ordered Raniya's killing.

Je-ha is assigned to guard Go An-na, Jang Se-joon's secret daughter, as An-na's life is always threatened because of her stepmother Yoo-jin. An-na, who has been a recluse and lonely all her life, starts relying on Je-ha, who shows concern for her and protects her everytime. They slowly fall in love, causing Je-ha to be torn between having to work with his boss Yoo-jin to exact revenge on Park Kwan-soo and protecting An-na against the wishes of Yoo-jin.

Another key figure is Choi Sung-won, Choi Yoo-jin's half brother and the son of her father's mistress and eventual second wife, who is his half-sister's fierce rival. Plotting with Park Kwan-soo, Sung-won eventually causes the deaths of Jang Se-joon and Choi Yoo-jin but later pays for this with his life at the hands of Choi Yoo-jin's devoted assistant Kim Dong-mi. Park hangs himself for his atrocious acts and Je-ha finally proves his innocence and achieves his goal of revenge. Je-ha and An-na leave for a foreign country and embrace each other. An-na asks Je-ha about his real name and Je-ha reveals his name.

## Cast

### Main

The main protagonist of the series. He is a former Blackstone military operative who had been stationed in Iraq until he flees South Korea after being framed for murder. His skills come to the attention of Choi Yoo-jin, who hires him to work for her security agency JSS Security under the codename **K2**, and is assigned as bodyguard to Go An-na, the secret illegitimate daughter of Choi's husband, Jang Se-joon. The name "Kim Je-ha" is not Je-ha's real name but an alias he uses to conceal his identity while working as An-na's bodyguard; the name actually belongs to a victim of an unsolved missing person case. The real name of the protagonist is unknown throughout the show, except that his real surname is said to be Kim. She is the wife of Jang Se-joon. The eldest daughter of a chaebol family, she was disinherited from the JB Group conglomerate as her father disapproved of a politician as a son-in-law, although she received control of JSS Security. Ambitious and merciless, her corrupt nature is due to the result of her upbringing. She sets her sights on becoming the First Lady and is willing to manipulate An-na and her husband to further her aims. As the series progresses, she begins to develop feelings for Je-ha after he rescues her from an exploding car. * Im Yoon-ah as Go An-na or Anna
    + Lee Yoo-joo as young Go An-na

She is the illegitimate daughter of Jang Se-joon who is kept hidden from the public to protect his political career. After her father's affair was discovered, An-na was exiled from Korea and grew up in Spain at a convent, under the constant surveillance of her cruel stepmother Choi Yoo-jin. An-na has developed a social phobia and experiences panic attacks from flashing lights, a result of PTSD stemming from her past connection to the death of her biological mother. She returns to South Korea from Barcelona and becomes a pawn in her stepmother's plan to control her husband's political career from behind-the-scenes. She later falls in love with Je-ha. He is a philandering presidential candidate partially responsible for corrupting his wife. He is also An-na's biological father. Because of An-na, whose existence is unknown to the public, he is unwillingly under the control of his corrupt wife, who blackmails him into doing her bidding. Throughout the series, he doesn't seem to show that he cares for his daughter, but later he reveals to Je-ha that he truly loves her and is willing to submit to his wife just to keep An-na safe. He is Se-joon's political rival and leader of the current ruling party. He is the main antagonist of the series.

## Production

The drama is written by scriptwriter Jang Hyuk-rin, who wrote *Yong-pal* (2015) and directed by Kwak Jung-hwan of *Neighborhood Hero* (2016).

Being depicted with a bodyguard action theme, the drama utilized various fighting techniques including systema, taekwondo, aikido, and jujutsu for its action scenes. It became the first Korean television drama to introduce the Bullet Time effect.

The first script reading was held in August 2016 at the CJ E&M Center in Seoul, South Korea. Filming began in September.

Some scenes of the drama, primarily in episodes 1 and 2, were filmed in Catalonia (along the mountain of Montserrat, the Gothic and Baroque Cistercian Monastery of Santes Creus in Aiguamúrcia), followed by various places in Barcelona (center, Old City, etc., as well as various metro / commuter rail stations such as Plaça d'Espanya and Magòria / La Campana), Gaudí's Modernista Colònia Güell Crypt (fashion show party) among other locations in Spain (probably near Almería for the Iraq War desert locations). The closing scene of episode 16 was filmed at Barcelona's Turó de la Rovira hill. The rest of the series was apparently filmed in Korea.

The male lead Ji Chang-wook, due to his casting, became the highest-paid actor for a tvN drama. He had special training and performed the action stunts in the drama by himself, without a body double. At the press conference, director Kwak expressed "On top of Ji's splendid action, the drama will tell the story of insatiable desire and political fights between people holding secrets of their own."

# The Louisiana Weekly

***The Louisiana Weekly*** is a weekly newspaper published in New Orleans, Louisiana. It emphasizes topics of interest to the African-American community, especially in the New Orleans area and south Louisiana. It has an estimated weekly circulation of 6,500.

*The Louisiana Weekly* was established by the C.C. Dejoie family in 1925. The paper has covered social justice issues including "education, the environment, politics and protest," including such diverse topics as the Black Panther Party and the threat of hydrofluoric acid contamination at a New Orleans area refinery. The newspaper also has a Spanish-language page aimed at south Louisiana's significant Central American population. The newspaper presently uses the tagline "Your Multicultural News Medium".

Publication of the *Louisiana Weekly* was interrupted (in print only ) because of the flooding caused by Hurricane Katrina in August and September 2005.

Past issues of *The Louisiana Weekly* are archived by the Amistad Research Center of New Orleans.

## History

Founded in 1925 by Orlando Capitola Ward Taylor and Constant C. Dejoie Sr., *The Louisiana Weekly* is one of the oldest African-American newspapers that is still in circulation. "Their vision was to create a newspaper dedicated to the enlightening, ennobling and empowering people of color". The newspaper focused on topics that they felt were not getting the attention it deserved. The paper first worked out of the Pythian Temple Building at 234 Loyola Avenue. The first issue, which appeared on September 19, 1925, chronicled the life of educator and singer Professor John Wesley Work. Originally, the paper was called *The New Orleans Herald* but the name was changed in October. The newspaper sales were increasing as soon as the paper became available. "The annual subscription rate of the newspaper was two dollars, with six-month, one-month, and one-issue rates available at $1.25, 20 cents, and five cents, respectively." Even though the newspaper is based in Louisiana, the paper was read worldwide.

## People

The Dejoie family was one of the most prominent black families in New Orleans; they owned the Unity Industrial Life Insurance Company. O.C.W. Taylor was a former teacher and principal in the New Orleans Public School system. Mr. Taylor received his bachelor's degree from Wylie College in Texas having distinguished himself with the debate team and a Masters from Columbia University which has, within its oral history project, a tape of Mr. Taylor talking about his experiences at the Louisiana Weekly giving more history and information on that period of time. He also had a television show on WNOE TV, which was about students, teachers and their achievements in the New Orleans Public School system and a radio show on WNOE radio. Besides the Louisiana Weekly, O. C. W. Taylor worked with George Schuyler, a close friend and fellow Mason at the Pittsburgh Courier. The Pittsburgh Couriers first office in the south was in Mr. Taylors home at 1667 North Roman Street. His daughter - Doris Gaynelle Taylor was society editor for the Louisiana Weekly and the Pittsburgh Courier.

During O. C. W. Taylors' time at the Louisiana Weekly, which lasted many years, he successfully chaired the papers' Victory Bond sales drive, which met its goal with the help of Taylor's daughter Doris Gaynelle Taylor. Doris, who was named after Doris Zemurray, was the model on the posters showing her picture in the "V" as O. C. W. and his daughter circulated the city selling the Victory Bonds. Emmanuel Gregoire was also active in the Victory Bond campaign, which was a large event in New Orleans during that period of time. Mr. Taylor, who served as editor of the Louisiana Weekly during its early years, took a leave of absence from his job as teacher and principal with the New Orleans Public School System to work with C. C. Dejoie to bring the paper to a viable place. It was clear after the first year or two that the paper needed someone full-time if this project was going to succeed. Taylors' wife - Marceline Bucksell Taylor - supported the family during that time when money was short because of the sacrifices they decided to make to help the Louisiana Weekly become a substantial publication. Marceline Taylor and C. C. Dejoie's wife- Vivian - were close friends and spent time sewing together for their club, the Circle de Service, so to them it was family bringing in family to move the Louisiana Weekly along to success.

O. C. W. brought his brother-in-law, Louis Peter Bucksell, a pharmacist in the city of New Orleans who had three pharmacies around the state, but whose passion was photography, to work with the paper to do much of the needed photography. Since Louis Bucksell had his own photographic development studio his photography was sometimes quite outstanding. L. P. Bucksell took many pictures over the years for the paper to accompany articles and found stories on his own as he traveled around the city and the state to help make the paper a viable institution for the African American Community.

Louis Bucksell brought along his son-in-law Emmanuel Gregoire, known to some as "Uncle Greggy", to work on the paper with his writings and "Uncle Greggy" did a great deal of the administrative work. Mr. Gregoire was a teacher and principal in the New Orleans Public School System and also wrote and helped manage the Louisiana Weekly for several years. Gregoire, Bucksell and Taylor spent years working without pay to move the paper along to help it find a substantial foundation.

C.C. Dejoie helped establish the newspaper with a $2,000 investment and used his business contacts to help spread the paper throughout the city. "Joseph “Scoop” Jones, who served as a Louisiana Weekly newsboy, reporter, columnist, and photographer, was considered to be one of the publication's earliest and most talented journalists." After C.C. Dejoie stepped down, his son Henry Sr. took over his father role as publisher of the newspaper in 1965. Henry Sr. left the newspaper because of Hurricane Katrina and was not able to return home before his death.

## Content

*The Louisiana Weekly* has been through multiple different stages of African-American history. The paper wrote about the violence towards black people during World War II. "One of the greatest accomplishments was a five-week series that ran in the paper claiming that defense training should be extended to public schools, which was implemented by the Superintendent of Schools after the series ran." *The Louisiana Weekly* covered issues such as: Brown v. The Board of Education, the Black Power Movement, the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, Martin Luther King Jr., W.E.B. DuBois, and the 1963 March on Washington. The paper also covers current events that are happening in the black community. It covers the shooting and injustices in the African-American community. *The Louisiana Weekly* does not just cover injustices, the newspaper covers sports, business, education, health, tourist advice, and entertainment.

## Reputation

"The Weekly's emphasis was placed on local, national, and international events that had tremendous effects on us in our struggle as people,". *The Louisiana Weekly* had to move out of New Orleans, LA because of Hurricane Katrina and that caused a slip in the paper's reputation. The paper wrote mostly government blame articles after Hurricane Katrina. "The paper was hit hard by the storm, and many of their subscribers dispersed throughout the country, from Atlanta to Los Angeles and New York. Displaced readers have come to depend even more heavily on the Louisiana Weekly for accurate coverage of New Orleans current events." The paper has gone through a tough time since Hurricane Katrina, but The Louisiana Weekly is still seen as one of the most important sources of news in the black community.

# The Last Herald-Mage

***The Last Herald-Mage*** is a trilogy of fantasy novels by American author Mercedes Lackey, published from 1989 to 1990. The story centers around a mage named Vanyel Ashkevron who lives in the fictional kingdom of Valdemar. It was the first high fantasy series with a gay protagonist from a mainstream publisher, and was well-received by critics, many of whom regard it as Lackey's best work.

## Background

Many of Lackey's works, including *The Last-Herald Mage*, are set in the fictional land of Valdemar. Her first series in that world was the *Arrows* trilogy, published from 1987 to 1988. In the world's internal chronology, it is followed by the *Mage Winds* trilogy (1991–93), the novel *Winds of Fury* (1994), the *Mage Storms* trilogy (1994–96) and the *Owl Mage* series (1997–98). Lackey also wrote several prequels to these works, including the *Mage Wars* trilogy (1993–96) which occurs a millennium prior to the other novels, and *The Last-Herald Mage* trilogy, which is set 600 years before the *Arrows* trilogy.

The three books of the trilogy, *Magic's Pawn*, *Magic's Promise* and *Magic's Price*, were released by DAW Books in June 1989, January 1990 and July 1990 respectively. The first editions were paperbacks, and Jody Lee designed the covers of the second and third books. An omnibus hardcover edition titled *The Last Herald Mage* followed in December 1990 from SFBC, with cover art by Dawn Wilson.

## Plot summary

In the series, Heralds are individuals with extrasensory or psychic abilities bonded with companions, magic sentient white horses, who have devoted their lives to using their abilities to help others in the kingdom of Valdemar. A small number of Heralds have mage capabilities and are called Herald-Mages.

### Magic's Pawn

Vanyel Ashkevron, age sixteen, is the heir to a great estate, Forst Reach, though he does not measure up to what his father, Lord Withen, deems to be a "proper" man. He is devoted to music and cultivating an elegant appearance. Withen sends Vanyel to school in Haven, the capital of Valdemar, under the supervision of Vanyel's aunt Savil.

Savil has little interest in Vanyel because he has no psychic or magic powers, but realizes he is not as arrogant as Withen described. Vanyel finds schooling at Haven more suited to his nature, but is told he does not have the Bardic gift, and cannot become a true Bard. Feeling he has lost his dream, he becomes depressed.

Vanyel develops feelings for Tylendel Frelennye, one of Savil's protégés. He learns that Tylendel is *shay'a'chern*, or homosexual. They become lovers and later find they are lifebonded, that is, soulmates. For the first time, Vanyel is truly happy. Tylendel introduces Vanyel to Gala, his Companion, one of the intelligent horse-like creatures that bond with Heralds.

Staven, Tylendel's twin brother, is assassinated by a family enemy. Tylendel senses his brother's death and goes mad with grief. Not understanding Tylendel's trauma, Vanyel continues supporting him as he seeks revenge. Using Vanyel's dormant energies Tylendel 'Gates' (essentially teleports) them to the enemy family. Tylendel casts a complicated spell summoning deadly wyrsa to kill members of the enemy family. Gala repudiates Tylendel and dies sacrificing herself to give time for Heralds to arrive to stop the massacre. Tylendel commits suicide, and the backlash from the 'Gate' spell tears open Vanyel's dormant magic potential.

Suffering from psychic and emotional damage, Vanyel is "chosen" by a Companion, Yfandes, who reassures him of her love and friendship and his worth. Vanyel begins recovering, but is unable to control his newly "opened" powers. He telepathically overhears thoughts blaming him for Tylendel's death. Vanyel attempts suicide, but is rescued, and the Heralds see that his love for Tylendel was real.

Savil, realizing Vanyel needs special assistance, takes him to the Tayledras, human beings who live in K'Treva, an environment immersed in magic. They teach him how to control his abilities, and convince him that being gay is not wrong or sinful. Vanyel does not want to be a Herald or a Mage, and suspects the people around him value his powers, not himself. He runs away, but as he thinks things over he realizes that Savil and the others have shown that they care about him. Just when he realizes that and moves to return he discovers a village being terrorized by a colddrake, a type of dragon. Before he can even think to do anything, he witnesses the dragon killing an elderly man. He pulls himself together and kills the dragon, but the unfortunate timing gives Vanyel the impression that he is a coward. The Tayledras later explain that he is not at all cowardly and that his reactions were normal.

The Tayledras, now aware that the drakes were gated in from Vanyel's experience, Savil and Vanyel set out to check on a village that was under Tayledras protection and has fallen under an enemy shield. Upon arriving at this village Vanyel is left to assist in protecting the village from minor harm and instead finds himself face to face with a Blood magic–crazed wizard. In Vanyel's attempts to deflect the wizard's magic he pulls on the power of a node and destroys the wizard with the raw power. He believes he will die as well, but is comforted by the thought that he will be with Tylendel. Vanyel wakes to find himself with his aunt in K'Treva as she presents him with the white robes of a full-fledged Herald-Mage.

## Reception and awards

Many critics view *The Last Herald-Mage* trilogy as Lackey's best work. Published from 1989 to 1990, it was one of the earliest young adult works to feature a gay protagonist, and the first in high fantasy from a mainstream press. Some contemporary reviews underplayed or ignored its gay plot elements. In 1989, *Library Journal* described the book as a "richly detailed fantasy" and praised Lackey's characterization. While feeling that a gay protagonist might limit its readership, *The San Diego Tribune* praised the themes of "growing and healing and living to carry your own weight". A review in the *Lambda Rising Book Report* found the protagonist Vanyel "warm and engaging" and called his relationship with Tylendel "spellbinding". In a similar viewpoint, critic Louse J. Winters wrote in 1994 that Vanyel was Lackey's "crowning achievement in characterization".

In 2019, a retrospective in *Tor.com* described the *Herald-Mage* books as "powerful stories about strength, magic, duty, love, and queer identity". The reviewer lauded the series for promoting queer acceptance and felt that Vanyel's story evoked a strong personal connection. In a similar view, *Booklist* said that Lackey's books helped normalize gay desire. Scholar Anne Balay has described the series as an influence on later queer fantasy novels such as Lynn Flewelling's *Nightrunner*.

*Magic's Pawn* was a finalist for the second annual Lambda Literary Awards in the category of Gay Science Fiction/Fantasy.

## Adaptations

In 2021, Radar Pictures acquired the television rights to the Valdemar novels. Ted Field is executive producer on the series with Anthony Tringali, Michael Napoliello and Maria Frisk producing for Radar Pictures. The first season is being developed as an adaptation of the *Last Herald-Mage* trilogy. Kit Williamson and Brittany Cavallaro were hired as writers and producers for the show.
