Résumé : (Ownership) Received by the Rubenstein Library as a gift from Mariela Ferrer Jewett in 2010
Orestes Lorenzo, a former Cuban Air Force major, defected with his plane to the U.S. in 1990. A campaign to bring his family was then begun. This postcard showing his wife and children, was part of the effort by the Valladares Foundation to pressure the Cuban government for their release. In 1992, Mr. Lorenzo flew back to Cuba clandestinely and picked up his family at a prearranged location and then flew them out of Cuba to Florida.

Résumé : (Biographical) From Wikipedia for H. G. de Lisser, from 29 June 2013: Herbert George de Lisser CMG (9 December 1878 - 19 May 1944) was a Jamaican journalist and author. He has been called "one of the most conspicuous figures in the history of West Indian literature". De Lisser was born in Falmouth, Jamaica, and attended William Morrison's Collegiate School in Kingston. He started work at the Institute of Jamaica at the age of 14. Three years later he joined the Jamaica Daily Gleaner, of which his father was editor, as a proofreader, and two years later became a reporter on the Jamaica Times. In 1903, De Lisser became assistant editor of the Gleaner and was editor within the year. He wrote several articles for the paper every day. He also produced a novel or non-fiction book every year, beginning in 1913 with Jane: A Story of Jamaica, significant for being the first West Indian novel to have a central black character. Another famous novel of his, The White Witch of Rosehall (1929), is linked to a legend of a haunting in Jamaica. De Lisser also wrote several plays. In December 1920 he began publishing an annual magazine, Planters' Punch. De Lisser devoted much time and effort to the revival of the Jamaican sugar industry and represented Jamaica at a number of sugar conferences around the world. He was also general secretary of the Jamaica Imperial Association, honorary president of the Jamaica Press Association, and chairman of the West Indian section of the Empire Press Union. He was appointed Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) in the 1920 New Year Honours.

Résumé : La connaissance de certaines caractéristiques d'une espèce donnée de crevette peut se trouver dans l'application d'une étude biométrique simple qui consiste à appréhender la croissance relative en comparant les relations entre différents caractères morphologiques chez des animaux de taille différente. Il va de soi qu'une telle étude n'a de sens que si l'on s'adresse à une "population" bien définie, c'est-à-dire remplissant les conditions d'isolement et d'homogénéité ; isolement dans le sens d'un écosystème déterminé et homogénéité dans celui d'une uniformité des caractéristiques individuelles. Cela nous amène à considérer : - le choix des espèces seules : les espèces présentant un intérêt commercial réel ont été retenues, à savoir celles déjà exploitées en Guyane française, Plesiopenaeus edwardsianus (fam. Aristeidae) et Solenocera acuminata (fam. Solenoceridae), ainsi que deux autres espèces capturées parallèlement mais avec des rendements nettement moindres et qui sont respectivement Aristeus antillensis (fam. Aristeidae) et Parapenaeus longirostris (fam. Penaeidae). - la constitution des échantillons : ils doivent être représentatifs de la population étudiée et donc satisfaire aux conditions requises. C'est pourquoi les individus de chaque espèce sont pris en nombre suffisamment grand, sur une aire géographique limitée (celle des campagnes de prospection), durant une courte période de temps (quelques jours) et en prélevant aléatoirement chaque animal de façon à obtenir une population la plus homogène possible et donc une distribution normale des tailles. Chez les crustacés comme la crevette cette dernière condition est souvent réalisée en raison d'une part de l'étalement de la période de ponte - surtout en zone équatoriale, et d'autre part de la variabilité des croissances individuelles.

Description : Antarctica is a continent of enigmas. Stunning geographic beauty belies its inhospitable climate. Covered a mile thick in ice, it is the world's largest desert. Fossil ferns found in its mountains speak of its prehistory as a tropical rainforest, but now is largely devoid of life. Its most famous inhabitant, the penguin, is thought of as a flightless bird, but soars underwater much as a falcon glides the sky. Perhaps one of the greatest enigmas is the contrast between the terrestrial and marine environments. On land, monochromatic snow and ice support little life, yet the sea teams with life, life that expresses itself with the full rainbow of colors. Color is but one manifestation of chemical ecology. The Antarctic benthos supports an extensive community of predators and prey, competitors and facilitators. A harsh geographic history has contributed to marine diversification and enhanced what we now recognize as a rich flora and fauna, commensurate in some instances with temperate kelp forests and even approaching the richness of tropical marine environments. Not surprisingly, Antarctic benthic ecology is highly dependent on chemical mediation of interspecific interactions, interweaving chemodiversity with biodiversity in a classical yin and yang feedback loop. The evolution of selective chemical defenses facilitates drug discovery research, producing suites of metabolites that inform structure-activity studies and add breadth to bioactivity profiles. This presentation will focus on recent and contextual research from our lab which has demonstrated the potential for new biomedical lead molecules and scaffolds from these difficult to access biological resources.

Résumé : "Ybor was so pleased with the thirty year old Manrara, that in 1872, he took him in as a member of the firm. At the same time he took in his son, Edward R. M. Ybor, as an associate. Ybor and Manrara were the perfect business combination. Their most famous brand was El Principe De Gales, which had world-wide fame, and othersuperfine labels were Flor de Madrid, La Perla, and El Triunfo. Since the move to Key West, Ybor was followed by other cigar manufacturers." Pizzo, Tony; Eduardo Manrara"The Cigar Manufacturing Prince of the Nation": Sunland Tribune, v.2 no.1 1972

The property was once a great house and estate owned by John Shaw which was used for sugar cane production. The estate was purchased by the Pringle family in the early twentieth century. In 1923, the great house was converted into a hotel. Later, Pringle left the property to his daughter Flora McKenzie Pringle Stewart, who cultivated its botanical gardens. The area pictured is now known as the Shaw Park Botanical Gardens and Waterfall in Saint Ann, Jamaica. The hotel has been relocated to the beach. Slide labeled Shaw Park Hotel Ocho Rios.
