A yard filled with steel drums waiting to be made into steel pan instruments in Trinidad ; The Bryant Slides Collection ; The Bryant Slides Collection, Trinidad Auteur(s) : Unknown ( Photographer ) Résumé : The slides were taken on collecting trips sponsored by the William L. Bryant Foundation, where books, music and art indigenous to the regions were gathered. The are organized by geographical location. Steel pan music, which evolved from African drum music, originated in Trinidad and Tobago in the early 20th century and is often a featured instrument during Carnival. As one of the national emblems of Trinidad and Tobago, steel pans were traditionally made from used steel oil drums or steel containers. The container’s head is concave and the playing surface is divided into convex sections by slants to make the pan's range of sounds. In this image are used steel oil drums, some steel pans with the Shell Oil Company logo and the word "Invaders," painted white metal steel pan stands, and breadfruit trees. One poster is advertising the Shell Invaders Steel Orchestra. Other signs includes phrases such as: "We are the greatest" and "Notice there is to be no unnecessary coasting in the yard." In the background is a woman standing on top of a concrete building's roof with laudry and men standing near the wall. Slide labeled Trin. 16.

A Warehouse filled with cigar boxes at Gradiaz-Annis and Co. Auteur(s) : Robertson and Fresh Photographers, 1925-1960 ( Photographer ) Résumé : Julius B. Annis was born June 4, 1890 in Luvno, Hungary. At present there is nothing known of his parentage, or when he emigrated to the United States. It is known that he registered for the draft during World War One and at that time he was residing at Brooklyn, New York. He married Minnie Brosow before 1917 and had at least one child, Morton Lawrence Annis Sr.
It is evident that Julius became affiliated with one of the larger and well known cigar companies, "Sanchez and Haya" in New York City. A brief history of this cigar company and it's founders is in order, so that the evolution of the company can be seen in regards to "J. B. Annis".
"Fact & Fancy About Cigars and Tobacco", by Morton L. Annis Sr. (1967)
In 1867, Senors Ignacio Haya and Serfino Sanchez, natives of Spain came to New York City with $1000.00 in capital and started what was to become one of the most successful cigar manufacturies in the world. In 1886 they moved their operations to Tampa, Florida and they received the U.S. Revenue designation of "Factory No. 1". Tampa soon became the cigar manufacturing industry giant and Sanchez & Haya retained it's leadership roll. The company ultimately acquired and merged with many of the old-line Tampa producers, such as Morgan Cigar Co., Schwab-Davis y Cia. and many more. By 1892, both Senor Haya and Sanchez were leaders of the Spanish community and their financial ability, philanthropy, and industry were legendary.
J. B. (Bunny) Annis began as a "drummer", or cigar salesman, who traveled from coast to coast selling his wares to Tobacconist and cigar merchants. "Dapper, loquacious, true bon vivants of the era .. perhaps the original American Salesman." Julius Annis, was at this time a guiding spirit and became partners in what is now known as Gradiaz, Annis or "Gradiaz y Annis", and was the Dean of these legendary "Knights of the Panetela."
In 1963 Gradiaz Annis became a Division of General Cigar Co., Inc. Julius Benjamin Annis died the following year (June 1964) in Tampa. His son, Morton Lawrence Annis Sr. (1917-1979), President of Gradiaz, Annis, wrote about his father in 1967:
"My father had a basic compelling motivation for excellence of product which was, in truth, his religion and his way of life. His love for tobacco and fine cigars was sacrosanct and so traditional in concept that he vigorously opposed all modern technological advances, preferring to create cigars in the great classic style of his youth."
Gradiaz, Annis is still known world wide as "World Leader in Luxury Cigars". (Funding) Funded in part by the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS), Ephemeral Cities Project.

La mer et l'océan porteurs d'éthique Auteur(s) : Loubersac, Lionel Éditeur(s) : Neidine Editeurs Résumé : This article has for objective to put forward the ethical values of the sea and the ocean. After a reminder(abs of the marine origin of life on earth and what the human always carries in him tracks of this origin, we underline several characteristics: the regulation of the climate by the ocean, the specificities of part of the animal kingdom which unlike other did not conquer the terrestrial domain, the fact that marine biological material was at the origin of numerous Nobel prizes, finally which the sea holds number of biological, mineral, energy resources etc. which will be the resources of tomorrow. The following part is dedicated to the human values which the sea inculcates to those who frequent her. We offer a list of some current expressions of the French language the origin of which is marine or maritime. We discuss then about prosperous nations, sometimes small ones, which knew how to put forward the values of the sea and benefit from it for their influence. We talk about the symbols pulled by the sea, in particular the shells and their value, which various civilizations and peoples have known to adopt. We end on the New Caledonian case and on the opportunities and the assets which can be, considering its marine and maritime values as an island Pacific country. Cet article a pour objectif de mettre en avant les valeurs éthiques de la mer et de l’océan. Après un rappel de l’origine marine de la vie sur terre et du fait que l’homme porte toujours en lui des traces de cette origine, on souligne plusieurs caractéristiques : la régulation du climat par l’océan, les spécificités de certains embranchements du règne animal qui à la différence d’autres n’ont pas conquis le domaine terrestre, le fait que matériel biologique marin a été à l’origine de nombreux prix Nobel, enfin que la mer recèle nombre de ressources biologiques, minérales, énergétiques etc… qui seront les ressources de demain. La partie suivante est consacrée aux valeurs humaines que la mer inculque à ceux qui la fréquentent. On offre une liste d’expressions courantes de la langue française dont l’origine est marine ou maritime. On discute ensuite des nations florissantes, parfois petites, qui ont su mettre en avant les valeurs de la mer et en tirer profit pour leur rayonnement. On disserte sur les symboles tirés de la mer et notamment des coquillages et de leur valeur que différentes civilisations et peuples ont su adopter. On conclue sur le cas calédonien et sur les opportunités et atouts qui peuvent être les siens de considérer ses valeurs marines et maritimes en tant que pays insulaire du Pacifique.

In a previous study demonstrating impaired function of CF macrophage, we have shown high production of soluble CD14 (sCD14). The aim of the present work is to determine origin and function of sCD14 in blood monocyte-derived macrophages from stable adult CF patients. Methods To study origin, sCD14 is measured by ELISA in supernatant of macrophages from healthy subjects (non-CF) treated with PI-PLC or cholesterol. The involvement of sCD14 in inflammation, was investigated by analysis of NF-kB and caspase 1 pathways in non-CF macrophages treated by sCD14. Measurement of gene expression was done by qPCR and proteins were quantified by ELISA and Western blot. Results Treatment with PI-PLC increased sCD14 level in the supernatant of non-CF macrophages whereas cholesterol did not modified it. Furthermore high secretion of sCD14 from CF macrophages was decreased by an inhibitor of PI-PLC. Treatment with sCD14 increased pro-IL-1β, IL-8 and TNF-α expression resulting from NF-kB activation through IkBa phosphorylation, this effect was inhibited by NF-kB inhibitors. Also, activation of caspase 1 by cleavage of pro-caspase 1 allowed the secretion of mature IL-1β, inhibited by an inhibitor of caspase 1. However, inflammasome complex involved in caspase 1 activation remains to be determined. Conclusion This data show that origin of sCD14 is partly due to the action of lipases cutting the GPI tail that serves as a membrane anchor to CD14. Furthermore sCD14 have a role in chronic inflammation in CF the 38th European Cystic Fibrosis Conference Vienne, Austria hal-01162773 https://hal-univ-rennes1.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01162773 DOI : 10.1016/S1569-1993(15)30203-4 | Partager |
