Lydia Stahl

Jump to: navigation, search

Lydia Stahl (1890-?) was a secret agent who worked for Soviet Military Intelligence (GRU) in New York and Paris.

She was born Lydia Chkalov in Rostov, in the south of Russia, in 1890. Once the wife of a Tsarist officer, she later married Baron Stahl, a Baltic nobleman, and emigrated to the United States where she became a naturalized citizen. When her only son died in 1918, the lonely and grief-stricken Lydia returned to Europe. She befriended the Finnish writer Hella Wuolijoki and was a regular visitor to her estate Marleback in Southern Finland, which was a meeting place for leftish intellectuals and politicians. Through her relationship with Otto Kuusinen, she met the American radical John Reed, and maintained a correspondence with him until his death in 1920. She joined the Soviet secret service while a refugee in Finland in 1921.

During the 1920s Lydia established a photography studio in Paris where she copied secret documents for Soviet Military Intelligence. In the spring of 1928 she was transferred to New York to help the GRU rezident Alfred Tilton. She remained in New York until 1933, when she returned to Paris to work for the apparatus which included Robert Gordon Switz. Lydia’s ami was the French professor Louis Pierre Martin, former attache of the Naval Ministry and member of the Legion of Honor.

In 1933 counterespionage uncovered an apparatus in Finland which included Tilton’s wife Maria, Lydia’s friend Ingrid Bostrom, and Arvid Jacobson. He provided information which led French counterintelligence to Lydia. She was arrested in December 1933 and other members of the apparatus, including Switz and his wife, were arrested shortly afterward. Lydia was convicted of espionage in April 1935 and served a four year sentence. She disappeared after her release from French prison.

Hey Nineteen” is a song by American jazz rock band Steely Dan, written by members Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, and released on their 1980 album Gaucho.

Story

According to one reviewer’s interpretation, the song “was about a middle-aged man’s disappointment with a young lover (”Hey Nineteen, that’s ‘Retha Franklin / She don’t remember the Queen of Soul / It’s hard times befallen the sole survivors / She thinks I’m crazy but I’m just growing old / hey nineteen / no, we can’t dance together / no, we can’t talk at all”).” Other reviews felt that the song struck a nerve with the aging baby boomer generation transition from the freewheeling 60’s and 70’s to the conservative 1980’s.

This song marked one of the first appearances of product placement in rock music, with its prominent featuring of “Cuervo Gold (r)” brand tequila.

Charts

“Hey Nineteen” peaked at #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (higher than any other Gaucho track), and #68 on the Black Singles chart.

Alternate versions

Beginning with their 1993-1994 performances, as documented in the Alive in America release, the phrase “Hey Nineteen/That’s Aretha Franklin/She don’t remember/Queen of Soul” was replaced with “Hey Nineteen/That’s Otis Redding/She don’t remember/King of Soul.” While singing the song in the Two Against Nature tour of 2000, Fagen often left the name attribution blank for the singing-along audiences to fill in, and when most of them sang “Aretha Franklin,” he corrected them by saying, “No, that’s Otis Redding.” In the 2007 Heavy Rollers tour, Fagen has reverted to the Aretha Franklin reference, presumably for comic effect, since the veteran fans have by now been trained to shout, “Otis Redding.”

Appearances in popular culture

The sixteenth episode of the sitcom Wings’ fifth season (88th overall) was named “Hey, Nineteen” after the song, and aired February 10, 1994.

The song was also featured on the show Entourage (Season 3, Episode 16, “Gotcha!”).

According to the John Belushi biography, Wired, Belushi called this one of his favorite songs. He was so inspired that he wrote a script based on the story in the song.

Cape Branco lighthouse, marking the easternmost point of the South American continent

Ponta do Seixas is a cape on the Atlantic coast of Paraíba state, eastern Brazil, that forms the easternmost point of the South American continent, five miles southeast of João Pessoa, the state capital.

It is surrounded by beautiful white sand beaches bordered by flat-topped forms of sedimentary strata called “taboleiros”, which rise sharply above the beaches to heights between 150 and 500 ft, and enjoys abundant rainfall. It lies on the coastal highway connecting João Pessoa and the port of Cabedelo farther north.

Pavise

March 10th, 2010

















Pavise

Jump to: navigation, search


Pavise shield (with Bartolomeo Vivarini’s St. Martin and the Beggar painting on it) and a Middle Age crossbowman.

A pavise (or pavis, pabys, pavesen) is a large convex shield of European origin used to protect the entire body. The pavise was also made in a smaller version for hand to hand combat and for wearing on the back of men-at-arms. It is characterized by its prominent central ridge. The concept of using a shield to cover an archer dates to at least to the writing of Homer’s Iliad, where Ajax uses his shield to cover his half-brother Teucer, an archer, while he would “peer round” and shoot arrows.

The pavise was primarily used by archers and crossbowmen in the medieval period, particularly during sieges. It was carried by a pavisier, usually an archer, or, especially for the larger ones, by a groom. The pavise was held in place by the pavisier or sometimes deployed in the ground with a spike attached to the bottom. While reloading their weapons, crossbowmen would crouch behind them to shelter against incoming missile attacks.

Pavises were often painted with the coat of arms of the town where they were made, and sometimes stored in the town arsenal for when the town came under attack. Religious icons such as St. Barbara and St. George were featured on the front of pavises. Even the Hussite chalice was featured on pavises during the Hussite Wars. Most pavises were covered in a coarse, carpet base like canvas, before being painted with oil and egg-based paints. Only 200 or so exist today but many were present in the period.

Career

DuPont won 6 Grand Slam singles titles, saving match points in the finals of the 1946 French Championships (versus Pauline Betz Addie) and 1948 U.S. Championships (versus Louise Brough Clapp). In terms of games played, the 1948 final at the U.S. Championships is the longest women’s singles final ever played at that tournament (48 games).

DuPont teamed with Brough Clapp to win 20 Grand Slam women’s doubles titles, which ties Martina Navratilova and Pam Shriver for the most Grand Slam titles ever won by a women’s doubles team. DuPont and Brough Clapp won nine consecutive titles at the U.S. Championships from 1942 through 1950. They won that tournament 12 of the 14 years they entered as a team. Their 12 titles is an all-time record for a women’s doubles team at the U.S. Championships, easily surpassing the four career titles won by the teams of Navratilova and Shriver, Doris Hart and Shirley Fry Irvin, and Sarah Palfrey Cooke and Alice Marble. DuPont won a total of 13 women’s doubles titles at the U.S. Championships, which also is an all-time record, as is her 10 consecutive women’s doubles titles at the U.S. Championships from 1941 through 1950.

DuPont won more mixed doubles titles at the U.S. Championships than any other player. She won nine titles, including four with William Talbert (a record for a mixed doubles team at the U.S. Championships) and three with Neale Fraser.

According to John Olliff and Lance Tingay of The Daily Telegraph and the Daily Mail, DuPont was ranked in the world top ten from 1946 through 1950, 1953, 1954, 1956, and 1957 (no rankings issued from 1940 through 1945), reaching a career high of World No. 1 in those rankings from 1947 through 1950. DuPont was included in the year-end top ten rankings issued by the United States Lawn Tennis Association in 1938, 1941 through 1950, 1953, 1956, and 1958. She was the top ranked U.S. player from 1948 through 1950.

From 1938 through 1958, DuPont went undefeated in ten Wightman Cup competitions, winning her ten singles and nine doubles matches. She also captained the U.S. team nine times, winning eight.

DuPont married William duPont in 1947 and later interrupted her career to give birth to a son. She was one of the few women to win a major title after childbirth but never played the Australian Championships because her husband would not let her. “They didn’t start to invite people down there and pay their expenses until I got married, and that was wintertime and Will’s vacation time, and I just never got to go. He threatened to divorce me if I went to Australia, so I never went. He had that respiratory trouble, and he wanted me to come to California with him. He thought I should be with him. That was that.”

Awards

She was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 1967. The Delaware Sports Museum and Hall of Fame inducted du Pont in 1999.
