  • GIRL with a CAMERA a Novel of Margaret Bourke-White
    GIRL WITH A CAMERA A Novel of Margaret Bourke-White, Photographer Commented [CY1]: Add Photographer? By Carolyn Meyer Carolyn Meyer 100 Gold Avenue SW #602 Albuquerque, NM 87102 505-362-6201 [email protected] 2 GIRL WITH A CAMERA Sometime after midnight, a thump—loud and jarring. A torpedo slams into the side of our ship, flinging me out of my bunk. The ship is transporting thousands of troops and hundreds of nurses. It is December 1942, and our country is at war. I am Margaret Bourke-White, the only woman photographer covering this war. The U.S. Army Air Forces has handed me a plum assignment: photographing an Allied attack on the Germans. I wanted to fly in one of our B-17 bombers, but the top brass ordered me to travel instead in the flagship of a huge convoy, headed from England through the Straits of Gibraltar towards the coast of North Africa. It would be safer than flying, the officers argued. As it turns out, they were dead wrong. Beneath the surface of the Mediterranean, German submarines glide, silent and lethal, stalking their prey. One of their torpedoes has found its mark. I grab my camera bag and one camera, leaving everything else behind, and race to the bridge. I hear the order blare: Abandon ship! Abandon ship! There is not enough light and not enough time to take photographs. I head for Lifeboat No. 12 and board with the others assigned to it, mostly nurses. We’ve drilled for it over and over, but this is not a drill.

  • Chapter 13 Rectangular Duals
    Chapter 13 Rectangular Duals 13.1 Intro duction In this chapter we consider the problem of representing a graph G bya rectangu- lar dual. This is applied in the design of o or planning of electronic chips and in architectural design. A rectangular dual is de ned as follows. A rectangular subdi- vision system of a rectangle R is a partition of R into a set = fR ;R ;:::;R g 1 2 n of non-overlapping rectangles such that no four rectangles in meet at the same p oint. A rectangular dual of a planar graph G is a rectangular sub division system and a one-to-one corresp ondence R : V ! suchthattwovertices u and v are adjacentin G if and only if their corresp onding rectangles RuandRv share a common b oundary. In the application of this representation, the vertices of G repre- sent circuit mo dules and the edges represent mo dule adjacencies. A rectangular dual provides a placement of the circuit mo dules that preserves the required adjacencies. Figure 13.1 shows an example of a planar graph and its rectangular dual. This problem was rst studied by Bhasker & Sahni [6, 7] and Ko zminski & Kin- nen [73 ]. Bhasker & Sahni gave a linear time algorithm to construct rectangular duals [7]. The algorithm is fairly complicated and requires manyintriguing pro ce- dures. The co ordinates of the rectangular dual constructed by it are real numb ers and b ear no meaningful relationship to the structure of the graph. This algorithm consists of two ma jor steps: 1 constructing a so-called regular edge labeling REL of G; and 2 constructing the rectangular dual using this lab eling.

The pair began working together as a team in 1975 and they quickly became Jamaica’s leading, and most distinctive, rhythm section. They have played on numerous releases, including recordings by U- Roy, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Culture and Black Uhuru, while Dunbar also made several solo albums, all of which featured Shakespeare. They have constantly sought to push back the boundaries surrounding the music with their consistently inventive work. Dunbar, nicknamed ‘Sly’ in honour of his fondness for Sly And The Family Stone, was an established figure in Skin Flesh And Bones when he met Shakespeare. Dunbar drummed his first session for Lee Perry as one of the Upsetters; the resulting ‘Night Doctor’ was a big hit both in Jamaica and the UK. He next moved to Skin Flesh And Bones, whose variations on the reggae-meets-disco/soul sound brought them a great deal of session work and a residency at Kingston’s Tit For Tat club. Sly was still searching for more, however, and he moved on to another session group in the mid-70s, the Revolutionaries. This move changed the course of reggae music through the group’s work at Joseph ‘Joe Joe’ Hookim’s Channel One Studio and their pioneering rockers sound.
