May not be used or reproduced without permission. Reflections on William “Bill” Johnson by Bob Chipman January 2017 Bill, It's hard to know where to start, and even harder to compose the right words on a smartphone, but I have to tell you that the general session was absolutely perfect in every way. Undoubtedly the best session I can remember seeing. You guys were all fantastic. I wanted to wait for things to calm down before sending a note, and now there's a chance to write a few words. Certainly, they won't come close to being adequate. After having breakfast together and then seeing you and Charlotte at the LSU party, together with James Turner and Joe Porter, I was already in great spirits about the profession and its connections. So then, the next morning, seeing what unfolded on the stage was even more fun, knowing a little of the background. It was an engaging, well-organized, elegant, and powerfully moving event. I may be going out on a limb here, but think it may become one of the most memorable and important sessions in the history of the ASLA.

  • Charlotte's Integration
    Charlotte’s Integration Era The Life and Death of Court-Mandated Busing, 1971-1999 By James Andrew Pierpoint A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Honors Department of History, Duke University Under the advisement of Dr. Susan Thorne 13 April 2018 2 Abstract In 1971, Charlotte, North Carolina confronted the problem of desegregating its education system, becoming a pioneer among the de-facto segregated Southern cities of that time. It did so through the creation of a groundbreaking busing program, per the order of Swann v. Charlotte- Mecklenburg Board of Education. However, economic growth shortly followed and with this growth came demographic change that profoundly entrenched the residential segregation of Charlotte. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, a movement grew in the newly developed upper- middle class communities of South Charlotte; a movement that advocated for a shift back to neighborhood schools. This grassroots effort was the driving force behind a lawsuit known as Capacchione v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education, filed in 1997, which challenged the Charlotte Mecklenburg School Board on its practice of using race in pupil assignment for its new magnet school program. This thesis will investigate all aspects of this case, exploring the ways in which the jurisprudence of its verdict played a fundamental role in the resegregation of Charlotte’s public school system. To do so, it proceeds by detailing the business history of Charlotte from 1971 onward as it relates to Charlotte’s demographics. It then analyzes the actions of both the School Board and the neighborhood schools movement as they became opposing forces in the 1990s.

  • Issue 41 Jan 2016
    Issue 41 Jan 2016 A s we begin a New Year, I felt it was time to look back and say, thank you, to the 73 former big league players, managers and coaches who served during World War II and are still with us. In the region of 1,300 players with major league experience (either before, during or after the war) were in the military between 1941 and 1945. Some were in the prime of their career. Others were starting their journey through the bush leagues, while others would not begin that journey until the war ended. At the beginning of the 1940s, baseball was truly America’s pastime. Major league teams drew capacity crowds on a daily basis and nearly 5,000 minor league players were fine-tuning their skills with 287 teams com- peting in 43 leagues spread across the country. But as Japan began to fulfil its territorial ambitions in the Pacif- ic and German troops swarmed through Europe at an alarming rate, those halcyon days would soon be gone as the United States began preparing to defend itself in the face of inevitable war. More than 400 play- ers in the major leagues, together with 4,000 minor leaguers, gave up their jobs, swapped flannels for military uniforms and went to war. Of the 73 former big league players, managers and coaches who are still living, the youngest is Don Hasenmayer, who turned 88 last April, and the oldest is Mike Sandlock, who turned 100 last October. What I find hard to believe, however, is how little information there is available on these heroes of our game.

Brink, AS-0057 43 52 ON THE COVER-The beautiful lavender color of the pyrope garnet inclusion within this small gem quality octahedral diamond crystal is an exquisite example of the diagnostic G10 calcium depleted garnet/diamond paragenesis. Garnets belong to the isometric crystal system but in nature occur only as dodecahedral and trapezohedral crystals; in this example the host diamond has clearly imposed an octahedral structure on the included garnet. The octahedron is further modified by cubic faces developed on the octahedral apices. Stress fractures can be seen emanating from the garnet crystal into the host diamond. Also visible are two tiny colorless inclusions, probably olivine. Field of View is approximately 1.8 mm.
