# Joseph DeLaine

Joseph Armstrong DeLaine (July 2, 1898 – August 3, 1974) was a Methodist minister and civil rights leader from Clarendon County, South Carolina. He received a B.A. from Allen University in 1931, working as a laborer and running a dry cleaning business to pay for his education. DeLaine worked with Modjeska Simkins and the South Carolina NAACP on the case Briggs v. Elliott, which challenged segregation in Summerton, South Carolina.
DeLaine decided to leave South Carolina, and never returned, after a warrant was issued for his arrest for returning gunfire when his parsonage later came under hostile gunfire. He fled first to New York City and then to Buffalo, New York, where he founded another Methodist church. As a result of efforts begun in 1955, DeLaine was pardoned in 2000 by the South Carolina State Parole Board.
DeLaine also memorably taught school in South Carolina, and in 2006 was inducted into South Carolina's Educational Hall of Honor at the University of South Carolina.
Rev. DeLaine and three other plaintiffs in the Briggs v. Elliott case were posthumously awarded Congressional gold medals in 2004 for their courage and persistence despite repeated acts of domestic violence against them.

## In popular culture

Playwright Loften Mitchell wrote a 1963 play based on DeLaine's story titled Land Beyond the River.
Actor Ossie Davis also wrote a short play, The People of Clarendon County, which starred himself, his wife, Ruby Dee, and Sidney Poitier. It was featured, as was the case predating Brown v. Board of Education in which DeLaine played an important role, in Alice Bernstein's illustrated book with the same title.
# Brita Drewsen

Brita Drewsen (5 May 1887 – 18 September 1983) was a Swedish artist and businesswoman who spent her working life in Denmark, creating household textiles and handicrafts. In 1925, working with the Danish entrepreneur Kaj Dessau, she designed the pioneering interiors of the Copenhagen household furnishings store, now Illums Bolighus, attracting international acclaim. In the 1930s, she collaborated with the weaver Gudrun Clemens, producing rugs, curtains and upholstery at "The Blue Factory" (Den blaa Fabrik) in Lyngby. Together with the designer Bjørn Wiinblad, she created furniture and arranged arts and crafts exhibitions there in the 1970s. Drewsen's early preferences for softly coloured textiles formed an important aspect of Danish design.

## Biography

Born on 5 May 1887 in Stockholm, Brita Drewsen was the daughter of Ernst Otto Leopold Sjöberg (1859–1938) og Anna Henriette Morell (1866–1963). Brought up by a well-to-do family, she became familiar with modern interior design and furnishings in her Stockholm home. She was introduced to arts and crafts at Stockholm Läns Hemslöjdförening. In 1914, she exhibited her artefacts at an exhibition of Swedish crafts in Copenhagen.
In 1914, Drewsen opened a shop in Copenhagen where she sold Swedish furniture and textiles. When she began to produce her own textiles, she ensured that the fabrics were not only of high quality but that they exhibited aesthetically attractive design features. In 1925, she became the artistic consultant for the entrepreneur Kaj Dessau who in 1928 designed the household furnishings store BO in the centre of Copenhagen, later known as Illums Bolighus. The goods displayed were placed in brightly lit, artistically designed interiors where the furniture and textiles were accompanied by artwork, including sculptures by Kai Nielsen. It was the first time a retail store enjoyed such innovative displays.
Drewsen went on to use natural materials for her own light-coloured textiles and produced carpets together for Haderslev Klædefabrik. Their finely presented patterns made them suitable for use in artistically designed "funkis" homes. Restrictions on imports in the 1930s made it attractive to work with Danish materials. In 1934, she began to collaborate with Gudrun Clemens who had developed a carpet production facility at Den blaa Fabrik (The Blue Factory) in Lyngby with a workforce of 20. Both women had a good sense of business and the same appreciation of design and quality. The factory grew rapidly, producing carpeting, upholstery and household fabrics, purchased by discerning clients. The facility continued operations until 1965 when it moved to Glostrup. The following year, Bjørn Wiinblad moved into what he called "The Blue House" (Det blaa Hus) while Drewsen lived in the "fairy tale house" she had built in the garden. Together they arranged joint exhibitions on the premises and designed furniture together.
Brita Drewsen died in Lundtofte on 18 September 1983.

# Bridge piercing

A bridge piercing is a facial piercing through the skin on the bridge of the nose, usually directly between the eyes of the wearer. A variation on this piercing, the vertical bridge piercing is a surface piercing, with all of the risks or potential complications related to surface piercings.

## History

The bridge piercing is a relatively modern body modification practice. Unlike septum or nostril piercings, which have roots in ancient cultures, the bridge piercing has no known historical or indigenous origins. It is believed to have emerged in the late 20th century with the rise of the contemporary body modification movement.
Body piercer Erik Dakota is often credited with popularizing the bridge piercing, reportedly coining the term "Erl" piercing in the 1980s after a client named Erl Van Aken, who was one of the first individuals to wear it regularly*. The piercing gained traction in alternative and punk subcultures throughout the 1990s, becoming more widely recognized due to increased visibility in body modification publications and online communities*.
As body piercing became more mainstream in the early 2000s, the bridge piercing remained a niche choice due to concerns about rejection and migration, which are common with surface piercings [(Larratt, Shannon, *BME Encyclopedia*, 2008)]. Despite this, it continues to be a distinctive form of self-expression among body modification enthusiasts today.
The risk of rejection is quite high for this piercing, as it is a surface piercing. There is also a high risk of scarring when the jewelry is removed.
Besides decorative jewelry, bridge piercings can hold spectacles.
[(Fakir Musafar, *Body Play* Journal, 1990)]
[(Pitts, Victoria, *In the Flesh: The Cultural Politics of Body Modification*, 2003)]

## Jewelry

Bridge piercings are most commonly pierced with straight barbells, although curved barbells and surface bars are also possible initial jewelry. Once the piercing is healed, it is possible to wear a captive bead ring in it, although depending on the placement of the piercing, a D-ring styled ring may be necessary to prevent migration caused by the pressure exerted by the shape of a ring.
Like many other facial piercings, there are many misconceptions about bridge piercings. Some involve eye problems, such as involuntary eye crossing. Other beliefs have to do with infections from piercings spreading to the brain, via the sinuses.
# Naval War College Museum

The Naval War College Museum in Newport, Rhode Island, is one of 10 official American museums operated by the United States Navy, under the direction of the Naval History & Heritage Command and in co-operation with the Naval War College. It is located at Building 10, Luce Avenue, Naval Station Newport. It is located in the building which first housed the Naval War College, a structure built in the early 19th century to house Newport's poor. The building is a contributing element to a National Historic Landmark District, along with Luce Hall, the college's first purpose-built building, in recognition of the War College's historical significance.

## History

The Naval War College established the Naval Museum in 1952, with the approval of the Chief of Naval Operations to manage its collections of historical artifacts. Since 1978, it has occupied its present quarters on Coasters Harbor Island in Narragansett Bay. This building, now called Founders Hall, was originally built in 1819 as the Newport Poor Asylum. The city of Newport and the state of Rhode Island donated this property to the Navy for use as the Naval War College. The college's first president, Rear Admiral Stephen B. Luce, formally dedicated the building to the Navy's use. The building became famous in the years 1886–1889, when the college's second president, Captain Alfred Thayer Mahan, first gave his lectures in this building that formed the basis for his famous book The Influence of Sea Power Upon History, 1660-1783 (1890).
Founders Hall and Luce Hall were designated a National Historic Landmark District in 1964, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966.

## Museum

Today, the Naval War College Museum uses this building to display exhibits on three themes: (a) the history of the Naval War College since 1884; (b) the history of naval activities in the Narragansett Bay area since the colonial period; and (3) the history of the art and science of naval warfare since ancient times.
# Navarre–Anderson Trading Post

The Navarre–Anderson Trading Post is a former trading post complex located at 3775 North Custer Road in Frenchtown Charter Township along the River Raisin in Monroe County, Michigan. It was listed as a Michigan Historic Site on June 16, 1972 and also listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 31, 1972.
The main building on the complex dates back to 1789, and is claimed to be the oldest surviving wooden residential building in the state. However, architectural analyses of the Biddle and McGulpin houses on Mackinac Island indicate they could date back as far as 1780. The Navarre–Anderson complex was established by the early French settlers Francois Marie Navarre dit Utreau and John Anderson, who were among the first to settle the area of present-day Monroe. In addition to the main building, which also served as a house, the cookhouse building was built in 1810. The original barn is no longer standing, but a 1790s replica was built on the complex.
The complex was originally located several miles downstream in the present-day Old Village Historic District. When advancing development threatened this historical complex, it was moved in 1894 and again in 1971. The complex was restored back to its appearance from what it looked like 1799. Today, the complex is owned by the Monroe County Historical Museum and is open to the public for special events and group tours.
# Nearpass House

Maintenance was neglected, however, and it was demolished by the current owner, Paul Farrell, around 2007.
Also known as the Knickerbocker House and the Padgett Homestead, after subsequent occupants, it was the earliest remaining building from the early settlement of Mill Rift.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.

# Neck of Land Cemetery

The Neck of Land Cemetery is a small historic cemetery on Summer Street in Taunton, Massachusetts. Established in 1687 near the confluence of the Mill and Taunton Rivers, it was the city's first cemetery. Most of its graves predate 1800; there are four burials before 1700, including two children. The cemetery is a roughly rectangular plot, about 0.5 acres (0.20 ha) in size, on the south side of Summer Street, between Prospect and West Summer Streets. The most significant individual buried in the cemetery is Taunton founder and first female colonial land claimer Elizabeth Poole.
The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
# Ned Ashton House

The Ned Ashton House in Iowa City, Iowa, also known as the Edward L. Ashton House or as Ashton House, was built in 1947-1948 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
The house was built in 1947 by Edward L. "Ned" Ashton as a private residence. Ashton, who has been called "the most distinguished bridge engineer in the history of Iowa," was a professor of civil engineering at the University of Iowa from 1943 to 1957. He designed several bridges over the Mississippi River including the Julien Dubuque and Davenport Centennial bridges, as well as smaller bridges such as the Iowa City Benton Street Bridge, which was a pioneering design of welded plate girder bridges.
The single-story raised-ranch house, built from Anamosa limestone (dolomite), and poured concrete, shows Prairie School influence in the way it was incorporated into its location alongside the Iowa River. Both the main and lower levels of the house provided excellent views of the river.
The poured concrete construction of the house utilized bridge span design creating one large lower level open room. The concrete floor pour level was marked with a grease pencil when the water level of the then flooded Iowa River receded to the needed height, assuring a level floor.
The house was built in a flood prone area with knowledge that the Army Corps of Engineers Coralville flood control dam was to be built upstream. Ashton designed the house to facilitate the flow of flood water through the lower level.
Ashton employed his University of Iowa College of Engineering students. The large, open lower level had nine full size drafting tables, bookshelves along the southwest wall, metal file cabinets and racks of printed plans along the southeast wall. The west side of the workshop provided excellent views of the river.

## Flooding and Acquisition by Iowa City

The basement level of the Ashton House was flooded in both the Great Flood of 1993 and the Iowa flood of 2008. The latter flood caused an estimated $177,247 in damages to the property, valued at $487,388 prior to the flood.
Following the 2008 flood, Iowa City began buying up flooded properties. As of Oct. 25, 2011, the city had purchased the Ashton House. By the end of the buy-out program in mid-2012, the city had purchased all but one neighboring house, with demolition slated for completion before 2013. The city plans to preserve the Ned Ashton House, renting it out as a venue for such events as receptions and meetings.
# Needham (Farmville, Virginia)

Needham is a historic home located near Farmville, in Cumberland County, Virginia. It was constructed in 1802, and is a two-story, three-bay, single-pile, central hall plan frame dwelling. It has a two-story rear ell, with one-story addition built in 1929, although most of the former outbuildings have now disappeared.
It was the home of educator, jurist, and politician Creed Taylor (1766–1836) as well as his son Creed Taylor Jr. (1791–1873). The elder Taylor established a proprietary law school in Richmond and moved it in the 1820s to this estate (it was Virginia's second law school and the nation's fourth), where it trained about 300 lawyers including U.S. President John Tyler's son, Ohio Supreme Court justice William Y. Gholson and future U.S. Congressmen John Minor Botts, Joseph William Chinn and John Hall Fulton as well as future Missouri governor and Confederate general Sterling Price. Although the law school had closed by 1840 (and perhaps a decade earlier, following the establishment of the University of Virginia Law School in 1829). In 1831 Anne Jane Gholson, the mother of novelist Ellen Glasgow was born at Needham.
Needham has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1988. Virginia erected a historic marker concerning the proprietary law school in 2000.
