# Chiral thin-layer chromatography

Chiral thin-layer chromatography is a variant of liquid chromatography that is employed for the separation of enantiomers. It is necessary to use either
* a chiral stationary phase or
* a chiral additive in the mobile phase.
The chiral stationary phase can be prepared by mixing chirally pure reagents such as L-amino acid, or brucine, or a chiral ligand exchange reagent with silica gel slurry, or by impregnation of the TLC plate in the solution of a chiral reagent.
The principle can also be applied to chemically modify the stationary phase before making the plate via bonding of the chiral moieties of interest to the reactive groups of the layer material.
# Cleveland Township, Callaway County, Missouri

Cleveland Township is one of eighteen townships in Callaway County, Missouri, USA. As of the 2010 census, its population was 742.

## History

Cleveland Township was created sometime between 1883 and 1897 from the northern sector Bourbon Township as previously defined, and named after President Grover Cleveland. As can be seen from the 1930 map of Callaway townships, at some point after 1930 the southeastern corner of Cleveland Township reverted to become part of Bourbon Township again. Its boundaries are illustrated in the maps linked below.

## Geography

Cleveland Township covers an area of 26.18 square miles (67.8 km$^2$) and contains the historic unincorporated settlements of Stephens and Younger, plus rural homes, but no incorporated settlements as of 2018. Its western boundary is Cedar Creek, with Boone County beyond it. The township contains four cemeteries: Allen, Oak, Simpson and Youngers, and the stream of Manacle Creek runs through this township.

# Deuce 7

Deuce 7 (also known as Deuce Seven, Twenty Seven, 27) is the pseudonym of an American artist based in Dunsmuir, California.

## Background

Deuce 7 has been a railfan (trainspotter) since his early days, and eventually began freighthopping as a means of transport as well as to spread his work beyond the Minneapolis area. His love of trains and freighthopping strongly influences his art. Locomotives, freight cars, and railyard denizens are recurrent motifs in his work. He calls the west coast home, but his monikers can be seen on train cars throughout the United States.
He got his pseudonym from the markings on an old diesel locomotive, BNSF 6127, signing his work with a "27". Eventually it was suggested that he spell the name out "Deuce 7". He currently lives in Mt Shasta, California.

## Work

Deuce 7 started working as a street artist in the 1990s in Minneapolis. Since 2006 has been exhibiting work in a gallery in Minneapolis and later in New York City, Seattle, and other major cities.

### Style

Deuce 7 uses aerosol paint, one-shot, and oilbars to create intensely colorful, spidery images of a variety of subjects which he refers to as "stories", which include characters he has met on his travels, romantic interests, trains, cityscapes, as well as purely expressive, surrealist images.
His fine art pieces carry the design hallmarks of his street style, and are also typically rendered with one-shot, ink, watercolor, and/or enamel spray paint. Some pieces utilize mixed media including masks, found objects, and baroque moldings. His pen and ink drawings frequently evoke stark, decaying cityscapes of crumbling tenement buildings patrolled by strange vehicles and airborne creatures.
# Cleveland Tower

Cleveland Tower is a bell tower containing a carillon on the campus of Princeton University. It was designed by Ralph Adams Cram and is one of the defining Collegiate Gothic architectural features of the university's Graduate College. The tower was built in 1913 as a memorial to former university trustee and U.S. President Grover Cleveland. A bust of the former president is the centerpiece of the grand chamber at the tower's ground level.

## Class of 1892 Bells

The tower's carillon is a gift of the class of 1892, which presented the bells as their 35th reunion dedication to the university in 1927. The English foundry Gillett & Johnston cast the original 35 bells. A plaque near the tower's entrance reads:
   The Class of Eighteen Ninety Two presents the carillon in this tower to Princeton University with love and gratitude and the hope that its bells may ever inspire coming generations of Princeton men to maintain the traditions of their alma mater in the service of God and of their country
Originally dedicated on June 17, 1927, the bells were rededicated after decades of varying use and maintenance on June 13, 1993. The Class of 1892 Bells are now one of the largest carillons in the world with 67 bells and a bourdon (G) weighing 12,880 pounds (5,840 kg). The Chapel Music Program maintains the carillon program with assistance from an endowment by the class of 1892. The bells play Sunday afternoons by university carillonneur Lisa Lonie, and weekday evenings by students, except during exam periods. The summer programs include performances by international guests. A carillon practice room is also housed in the Graduate College basement.
Lisa J. Lonie, University Carillonneur, is the only fourth carillonneur in the instrument's +80 year history and the first female to hold the position.
# Chouteau (disambiguation)

# Doris Petroni

Doris Beatriz Petroni (born 4 December 1941) is an Argentine choreographer, dancer, and dance teacher. She was married to the musician and arranger Oscar Cardozo Ocampo [es] until his death in 2001.

## Career

Doris Petroni studied at the National School of Dance, where she obtained her teaching degree. She then continued her artistic training in dance with teachers such as María Ruanova, Paulina Ossona, Luisa Grinberg, Ana Itelman, and Renate Schotteluis, and in the theater with Ricardo Bartis, Beatriz Mattar, and Agustín Alezzo.
She was part of several stable groups, such as those of Renate Shottelius and Jorge Tomín. She joined the Contemporary Ballet of the Teatro General San Martín (under the direction of Oscar Araiz [es]), and subsequently, from 1990 to 1997, coordinated it with him.
Petroni participated in the Friends of Dance and Open Dance Group and choreographed countless plays, as well as television shows such as La culpa fue de Gardel, Prohibido pisar el Tango, and Las tres medias de Andrés. She contributed to the television programs of Nicolás Repetto (in Paraguay) and Alejandro Dolina. She was a teacher at the National School of the Arts and at the Teatro Colón, and conducts workshops specializing in movement techniques.

## Reviews

In his review of the production of The Trojan Women, with choreography and direction by Oscar Araiz, Néstor Tirri [es] notes:
   The final reference goes to Doris Petroni, legendary dancer of the first companies of Araiz of the sixties, who...takes on Hecuba with her scenic authority and with a quality of movement consistent with the dramatic intensity of the role.

## Awards

Petroni was nominated for the ACE Award for the best choreography of the 2002–2003 season. In 2017 she won the Hugo Musical Theater Award [es] for Best Choreography for Vivitos y coleando 2.

# Donald Vann

Donald Vann is a Cherokee artist from Oklahoma known for painting detailed landscapes with Native American subjects. Vann conveys the traditions and culture of his tribe through soft lines and colors. He has exhibited his work throughout the U.S. and abroad, winning numerous awards for his mystical paintings.

## Early life

Donald Vann was born outside of Stilwell, Oklahoma in 1949, where he was raised. Both of his grandfathers inspired him and affected his talent early on in his childhood. Vann's maternal grandfather was a holy man, having a great knowledge of the spiritual world and medicines. His paternal grandfather had a love for the mountains and hunting, a passion that he shared with Donald. In the fifth grade, Vann's grade school teacher paid him a small sum to paint religious pieces for a project, and event that started his interest in professional artistry. During his childhood, Vann's family could not afford to provide him with art supplies, so he melted crayons for paint and constructed his own paintbrushes.
Years later, Vann was introduced to Jerome Tiger. He and his agent Nettie Wheeler profoundly impacted Vann's artistic development. Vann began to meet with Tiger in order to develop his talent, taking a time off only to earn a GED through Job Corps. Immediately upon his return, Vann took up his lessons with Jerome and Nettie. Soon after, Jerome Tiger died when Vann was only 15 years old. Nettie Wheeler became Vann's agent and started selling Vann's work all over the country.
Vann served in the Vietnam War and returned home in 1973. When he returned, Nettie's health was failing and Vann took up with a man from Austin, Texas. The two started their own company down in Austin called Nowotahee Galleries and he served as Vann's agent for over forty years.

## Style

Vann's early style was highly influenced by Jerome Tiger's work. He paints very detailed landscapes as well as a mixture of Cherokee, Plains, and animal imagery. His ethereal skies, detailed landscapes and renderings of the human figure invite the viewer to see the beauty of the spirit through its physicality. Vann utilizes the airbrush to achieve a smooth, clean, brush stroke-less aesthetic to his paintings.

## Exhibitions and awards

Vann has exhibited his work all over the United States and abroad and has received numerous awards. After forty one years in Texas, Vann moved to Tahlequah, Oklahoma where he set up a new gallery in which to display his artwork.
