Salim L. Lewis
Salim L. "Cy" Lewis (October 5, 1908 – April 28, 1978) was the Managing Partner of Bear, Stearns & Company, running the company from 1949 until shortly before his death in 1978.
Early life
Salim or "Cy" was born Salim Lissner Lewis on October 5, 1908, in Brookline, Massachusetts, to Max Lewis and Hattie Lissner Lewis, Orthodox Jews. Their marriage was their first and only. Cy was their first child; a sister, Isabel Alma Lewis, was born later. She married Sam Kantor and had a number of children, one of whom survived to adulthood and is a physician practicing in San Francisco. Max, who was 46 at his son's birth, was born in western Russia or eastern Poland in 1862, and came to The United States in 1877 at 15, at which time he changed his last name to Lewis. Max declined to reveal his given name to his son, his daughter, or to his first born grandson. Max's wife, Hattie Lissner, was born in Massachusetts of German Jewish parents who immigrated in the mid 19th century. Salim L. Lewis attended Boston University for three semesters, and dropped out because he could not afford tuition. Though he was asthmatic, he played left guard in weekend professional football in Boston for a while (a time when professional football paid $50–$75 a game). In 1927, he moved to Philadelphia for a short time to sell shoes. Salim L. Lewis married once. His wife Diana came to their marriage having married twice to Jewish men. She had had children by neither husband. Her maiden name was Diana Frances Bonnor. Her mother's maiden name was Laura Felger. Diana's father was Frederick Charles Dempster Bonnor, and he was called Fred. Fred Bonnor was an Englishman who came to the states alone when he was 15. He was the youngest of three sons. His marriage to Laura was their only marriage, and Diana was their only child; Salim and Diana had four children, three boys and a girl, in that order.

Lewis (Scottish Gaelic: Leòdhas, pronounced [ʎɔː.əs̪], also Isle of Lewis) is the northern part of Lewis and Harris, the largest island of the Western Isles or Outer Hebrides (an archipelago) of Scotland. The total area of Lewis is 683 square miles (1,770 km2).
Lewis is, in general, the lower lying part of the island, with the other part, Harris, being more mountainous. The flatter, more fertile land means Lewis contains the largest settlement, Stornoway, and three-quarters of the population of the Western Isles. Beyond human habitation, the island's diverse habitats are home to an assortment of flora and fauna, such as the golden eagle, red deer and seals and are recognised in a number of conservation areas.
Lewis is of Presbyterian tradition with a rich history, having once been part of the Norse Kingdom of Mann and the Isles. Today, life is very different from elsewhere in Scotland with Sabbath observance, the Gaelic language and peat cutting retaining more importance than elsewhere. Lewis has a rich cultural heritage as can be seen from its myths and legends as well as the local literary and musical traditions.
Lewis (satellite)
Lewis was an American satellite which was to have been operated by NASA as part of the Small Satellite Technology Initiative. It carried two experimental Earth imaging instruments, and an ultraviolet astronomy payload. Due to a design flaw it failed within three days of reaching orbit, before it became operational.
Lewis was a 288 kilograms (635 lb) spacecraft, which was designed to operate for between one and three years. It was built by TRW under a contract which was signed on 11 July 1994. Its primary instruments were the Hyperspectral Imager, the Linear Etalon Imaging Spectral Array and the Ultraviolet Cosmic Background experiment. A number of technology demonstration payloads were also flown.
Launch
Lewis was launched by a LMLV-1 (Athena I) rocket flying from Space Launch Complex 6 at the Vandenberg Air Force Base. The launch was originally scheduled to take place in September 1996, but it was delayed due to technical problems affecting the rocket. Launch finally occurred at 06:51:01 GMT on 23 August 1997, and Lewis was successfully placed into a parking orbit with an apogee of 134 kilometres (83 mi), a perigee of 124 kilometres (77 mi), and 97.5 degrees of inclination. Lewis was to have raised itself into a higher orbit, at an altitude of 523 kilometres (325 mi).
