Q: What should/can I do if I flagged a question that needs to be flagged, but chose the wrong description? I flagged a question that had an image displaying full frontal nudity partial frontal nudity with blatantly see-through-clothing. I immediately went to flag for spam as the reason. Then, I realized there was a legitimate question there. So, I edited the question, and removed the link to the image instead.

*

*Should/can I remove or change the reason for flag?

*Should a flag
still be inflicted against the question asker when such an easy edit
was able to be made?

A:
Should/can I remove or change the reason for flag?

No, currently you cannot retract your flag or change its reason.

Should a flag still be inflicted against the question asker when such an easy edit was able to be made?

Yes, a flag should have been raised because the edited link is still in the post revision history.
You did the right thing by both flagging and editing the post. A better approach would have been to edit the post first and then flag it using the "other" reason and mention about the offensive link of the edited post.

RiverWalk Ranked Among Fastest Growing Craft Breweries of 2018 by the Brewers Association
RiverWalk Brewing Co. of Newburyport, MA was named one of
the fastest growing small and independent craft breweries of 2018 by the
Brewers Association (BA)—the not-for-profit trade group representing small and independent craft brewers.
"It's amazing to look back and think we started brewing in a 3-gallon pot in
our garage along the Riverwalk Trail" says Steve Sanderson, owner of RiverWalk Brewing. "We are definitely excited for what is yet to come".
The second edition of this annual list offers insight into the depth and diversity of growth within the craft brewing industry. RiverWalk was ranked 27 among 50 small and independent breweries from across 27 states. In 2018 RiverWalk expanded distribution of its beer to Maine, New Hampshire, the South Shore of Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the Islands helping fuel growth.
Median growth from all the breweries on the list was 163 percent with the
median size being 1,350 barrels of in-house production in 2018. Breweries on the list range from 50 barrels to more than 40,000 and grew from less than 70,000 barrels collectively in 2017 to more than 170,000 barrels in 2018. As a group, these brewing companies represent approximately 10 percent of total craft growth by volume for the year, and include 13 brewpubs, 35 microbreweries and two regional craft breweries.
"Even as market competition continues to increase, these small and independent breweries and brewpubs demonstrate there are still growth opportunities across a diverse set of regions and business models," said Bart Watson, chief economist, Brewers Association.

"Michelle and her company Projects Plus were recommended to me by an industry consultant. And after working with Michelle for two years I can tell you that was a very good recommendation. Any business would be fortunate to have Michelle and her team on their side. I have found Michelle to be consistently dedicated, hard-working, honest, and caring. In addition, she clearly has the skills and knowledge to help any business reach its marketing goals."
Immediately She Got My Listings Fixed!
"Michelle Darling has been doing my SEO for years now.
Prior to her coming on board my local listings (Google, Yahoo, Yelp, Bing etc.) was a mess.
I wasn't coming up on searches for painters in Minneapolis and overall was a little discouraged about Internet Marketing.
I met Michelle through a friend who has a business in Minneapolis and he spoke highly of her skill. I can only report now how right he was! Immediately she got my listings fixed and maximized.
She was able to make some tweaks for my home page and within a few months, the phone started ringing with "organic" internet leads.
I Do Have One Regret - Not Finding Her SOONER!
In this time, I have worked with numerous advertising/marketing companies attempting to put my company in front of potential customers. Early on my marketing strategy was very simple - send direct mail, knock on doors, or put up lawn signs - and the leads were there. These days the customer base is much more complex.
This is where Michelle Darling of Projects Plus comes in. I was introduced to Michelle a year or so ago as a potential accent to my Reach Local online marketing campaign.
I was never fully satisfied with Reach Local. It was a necessary approach initially getting me a degree of immediate internet exposure, but at a considerable cost per lead.
Projects Plus has since replaced my need for Reach Local's services.
I was very direct with Michelle in our early conversations stating that I am NOT tech savvy nor do I desire to be so! I have a very busy schedule, and I needed someone that I trusted and felt comfortable with to handle my online presence without breaking the bank.
"I'm often contacted by prospective owners for 'validation' calls about being a business owner. They have a range of questions most often centered on two topics: crews and marketing. Well, Michelle can't help with crews (I wish she could) but what she can help with is marketing. She was my first source for all things internet when I opened my franchise. She was so very patient and offered extensive explanations of what she was doing for me.
She helped me understand PPC, SEO, local listings and organic searches. I didn't necessarily want to know this much about the internet but it's such an important part of my business and my yearly marketing spend that it was essential that I get a handle on it.
Most Positive Marketing Tool I Have Used!
"Michelle and Projects Plus has been the most positive marketing tool I have used in my business by far. She has enhanced my business immensely with her SEO and local listing to give me higher rankings and many more leads.
Her attention to detail and customized service has been a tremendous advantage and I really enjoy the personalized service.
"I would highly recommend Michelle of Projects Plus. After working with another company to set up local listings and SEO, we were referred to Michelle. The difference was night and day. Michelle has the personal touch I appreciate. She took time to meet with me personally on the phone and clarify all of our company information. I could see the results of her work right away.
Previously, the company we used communicated with billing on time, but I did not see the changes/updates we needed for months.
An Important Part of My Strong Revenue Growth!
I Have Seen VERY Noticeable Improvement in Leads!
I Can Confidently Focus My Attention on Other Areas of the Business.
I Was Able to Double My Business This Year!

Q: Using Ubuntu Font doesn't work with special characters on iOS I am using the Ubuntu font family (http://font.ubuntu.com/) within my iOS app, which works great except with a mdesh (and propably some more characters, the mdesh is the one I am having trouble right now).
Using the font within Word or on a website the charcater appears correctly, I took also a look inside the font and the character ist there.
You can test it by yourself on http://font.ubuntu.com/ by pasting

Der Halbgeviertstrich (–) ist in der Typografie ein waagerechter
  Strich,

into the input field.
I have also ensured that there is no other cause, the text ist correctly stored in SQLite and correctly set to the text property of an UILabel control (so the mdesh is there at this point in time).
So the font seems to be okay, my code seems to be okay, but I don't get it to work.

A: Seems like on iOS 10 and onwards it is able to render on single line uilabel. However rendering fails if it is a multiline label.

A: It's the font itself, not the OS that limitates the available characters. Ubuntu seems not to have a dash on OS X either.

• What programs can be used to write ActionScript?
• How to organize the ActionScript code?
• How to include the ActionScript code in an application?
• What steps should we follow to develop an ActionScript application?
You can use the ActionScript 3.0 code to power everything from simple graphics animations to complex client-server transactions processing systems. Depending on the type of application that is being created, use one or more of these different ways of including ActionScript in your project.
In Flash Professional, for example, the ActionScript code can be created in any frame of the timeline. This code executes while the movie is playing at the moment when the player enters that frame.
Placing ActionScript code in frames provides a simple means of adding behaviors to embedded applications in Flash Professional. The tool allows you to add code to any frame in the main timeline or in the timeline of any MovieClip symbol. However, this flexibility comes at a price. When you create large applications, it's easy to lose track of which frames contain which scripts. This complicated structure may make it more difficult to keep the application in time.
Many developers simplify the Organization of ActionScript code in Flash Professional, putting the code only in the first frame of a timeline or on a specific layer in the Flash document. The separation of your code makes finding and maintaining the code in Flash FLA files. However, the same code cannot be used in other Flash Professional project without copying and pasting the code into the new file. To facilitate the use of the ActionScript code in other Flash Professional projects in the future stores the code in external ActionScript files (text files with the extension).
Another very common example, in a development environment Flex as Flash Builder, the developer can include ActionScript code inside a tag in a Flex MXML file. However, this technique can increase the complexity in large projects and make use of the same code in another Flex project. To facilitate the use of this code in other Flex projects in the future, store your code in external ActionScript files.
For projects involving a significant amount of ActionScript code, the best way to organize this code is in separate ActionScript source files (text files with the extension). An ActionScript file can be structured in one of two ways, depending on how you intend to use it in your application.
• ActionScript class definition: a definition of an ActionScript class, including its method and property definitions.
When defining a class, you can access so the ActionScript code in the class by creating an instance of the class using its properties, methods, and events.

Łohoza (błr. Лагаза, ros. Логоза) – wieś na Białorusi, w rejonie łohojskim obwodu mińskiego, około 7 km na północny zachód od Łohojska, siedziba sielsowietu.

Wieś magnacka położona była w końcu XVIII wieku w hrabstwie łohojskim w powiecie mińskim województwa mińskiego

Historia
W XVII wieku Łohoza należała – wraz z innymi majątkami w okolicy Łohojska – do rodziny Tyszkiewiczów. W 1800 roku Łohozę nabył Jan Pawlikowski herbu Cholewa, łowczy, a następnie podczaszy i sędzia ziemski miński, poseł województwa mińskiego na sejm w 1764 roku i Sejm Czteroletni w 1788 roku. Jego syn Michał, kolejny właściciel Łohozy, nie pozostawił potomstwa. Majątek odziedziczył Stefan (ur. w 1812 roku), syn Dominika, brata Michała. W 1878 roku Łohoza została sprzedana Stanisławowi Andrzejowi Houwaltowi, spolonizowanemu Niemcowi. Ostatnim dziedzicem majątku był jego syn Stanisław Houwalt.

W wyniku II rozbioru Polski wieś znalazła się w 1793 roku w Imperium Rosyjskim. W latach 1919–1920 była pod polskim zarządem wszedłszy w skład powiatu borysowskiego. W 1921 roku znalazła się w ZSRR, a od 1991 roku – na Białorusi.

Słownik geograficzny Królestwa Polskiego odnotowuje, że za czasów okupacji rosyjskiej folwark ten zamieszkiwało 106 dusz męskich.

Dawne zabytki
Prawdopodobnie zaraz po nabyciu Łohozy w 1800 roku Jan Pawlikowski pobudował tu dwór istniejący do 1917 roku. Był to duży prostokątny budynek o trzynastoosiowej elewacji, w centralnej, pięcioosiowej części piętrowy, z czterokolumnowym portykiem w wielkim porządku. Wnętrze miało układ dwutraktowy, amfiladowy. Dwór był otoczony ogrodem spacerowym, w którym znajdowały się aleje lipowe i sadzawka z wyspą. Niedaleko sad owocowy i warzywnik.

Obecnie po majątku nie ma śladu. Został on opisany w 1. tomie Dziejów rezydencji na dawnych kresach Rzeczypospolitej Romana Aftanazego.

Armenians of Lachin District mark their leaving by setting fire to houses
In anticipation of the transfer of the Lachin District to Azerbaijan, scheduled for December 1, the Armenian population leaves their houses and sets them on fire.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on November 20, the Azerbaijani armed forces occupied the Agdam District and seven villages in the Martakert District of Nagorno-Karabakh, and on November 25, they took control over the Kelbajar District (the Armenian name is Karvachar, – note of the "Caucasian Knot").
While leaving Kelbajar, local residents set fire to houses, offices, and infrastructure facilities. They also took remains of their relatives from cemeteries.
People leave villages and towns in the Lachin District and take with them roofs, doors of houses, and even power lines. Just like when leaving the Kelbajar and Agdam Districts, the Armenian population leaves their houses and sets them on fire. The fire spreads to trees and causes forest fires, the "Sputnik-Azerbaijan" reports.
A resident of the village of Karegakh (the Azerbaijani name is Karakakh, – note of the "Caucasian Knot") explained that he did not want to leave his house to Azerbaijanis. "I have been building my house for 23 years not for Turks," said the man as quoted by the "Kommersant".
Azerbaijan will gain control over 52 villages in the Lachin District, the RIA "Novosti" reports with reference to the information of the Armenian government.
Most of the villages and towns transferred under the control of Azerbaijan had been destroyed long before the autumn escalation of the conflict. So, in Agdam, where 23,000 people lived earlier, not a single surviving building remained.
Azerbaijani militaries enter Kelbadjar District, Karvachar residents leaving the city before its transfer to Azerbaijan, Mass exodus from Martakert District looks like in 1992, local residents report.

Posted by McNair Scholars Program on Tuesday, October 30, 2018 0:49 - 0 Comments
Baylor University's inaugural class of McNair Scholars and staff of the program. (Robert Rogers/Baylor University)
Baylor University's 25 inaugural McNair Scholars are ready to soar, like the program's namesake Dr. Ronald E. McNair, a laser physicist and NASA astronaut who was inspired to work hard and persevere in his studies by his family and by a teacher who recognized and believed in his scientific potential.
Baylor is in the first year of its five-year, Department of Education-funded grant to implement the Ronald E. McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program, known as the McNair Scholars program, which prepares low-income, first-generation and/or other underrepresented students to successfully navigate a path to a Ph.D. program following graduation from Baylor. Through the Baylor McNair Scholars program, students are immersed in research and a variety of other scholarly activities, with an eventual goal of increasing graduate degree awards for students from underrepresented groups. Baylor's grant funding will support 25-30 students each year with substantial mentoring and community building along the way.
"Baylor's inaugural class of 25 McNair Scholars has been an extremely amazing group of students," said Steven Fernandez, director of the McNair Scholars program, who himself was a first-generation college student at Florida International University. "They're from diverse backgrounds, even from different academic disciplines. We have a large group of veteran students who come with abundant life experiences and students from all different ethnic backgrounds. It really works to create a cohesive community environment, and students have been able to be very supportive of each other."
Among the benefits of being a Baylor McNair Scholar are faculty mentoring, a paid summer research internship, seminars and professional development workshops, conference travel opportunities, GRE® test preparation and graduate school application assistance. Baylor faculty who serve as mentors act as "a guiding light" for students in multiple ways, Fernandez said.
"I have faculty who mentor students through their research and the entire process from what schools to apply to, what conferences to attend, how to apply for different fellowships. Many of them have connected students to fellow faculty at other universities where they may want to attend graduate school," Fernandez said. "It's the definition of a mentor, of being there when the students need questions answered and being a resource for students when they're not sure what to do. We can give them the tools here at McNair, but sometimes it's that inspiration coming from faculty mentors that is so important for our program to be successful."
(Read more about summer research by McNair Scholars here.)
Like Fernandez, Lakia M. Scott, Ph.D., assistant professor of curriculum and instruction in the Baylor School of Education, was a first-generation college student and understands how programs like McNair identify potential in students "well beyond what they can see presently." Scott has been involved with the Baylor McNair program from its beginning as a member of the grant-writing team. Now Scott is invested as a faculty mentor for Olivia Moses, a senior elementary education major and McNair Scholar from Arlington, Texas.
"If you would have told me early in my undergraduate career that I would have a Ph.D. and still be at an institution working and loving research, I would have thought you were crazy, because I couldn't see beyond where I was at the time and my circumstances somehow contributed to that line of thinking," Scott said.

Precious Mathis, Major: Psychology, Faculty Mentor: Melanie J. Sekeres, Ph.D.
Baylor's McNair Scholars will have their first opportunity to present their summer research during the inaugural McNair Research Symposium from 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 18, in the Beckham and White Rooms in the Bill Daniel Student Center.
"Research experience used to be a bonus when you were applying to graduate schools. The question was simply does this student have research? Now it's a question of how much research does this student have?" Fernandez said. "It's become so competitive that the process of finding a faculty mentor and doing research isn't enough. It's about the level of research they're doing, presenting it to different conferences and talking thoroughly about their research and connecting with different peers and faculty across the nation about the scholarly work they're accomplishing."
Most graduate schools waive the application fee for McNair Scholars across the country, which can add up quickly, Fernandez said.
"Very few don't waive the application fee, because they see the potential of these McNair Scholars, not only are they coming in with mentored research, but also because they're students who have the qualities and grit necessary to succeed in competitive programs, such as McNair," he said.

Applications for the next class of McNair Scholars are open on the McNair website. The deadline to apply is Nov. 28, 2018. Interest sessions are scheduled at 5 p.m. Sept. 25 (Fentress Room, SUB), Oct. 1 (Fentress Room, SUB), Oct. 18 (Lipscomb Room, SUB) and Oct. 23 (Fentress) Room, SUB).
The program also offers a Pre-McNair Academy, which provides eligible freshman, sophomore and junior students with a one-year introduction to the process of the McNair Scholars Program. Pre-McNair Academy students who participate in the required activities may be eligible for priority consideration to the McNair Scholars program, once eligible and meeting the standards for admission.
Baylor's McNair Program substantially builds upon resources that the Paul L. Foster Success Center has been working on to support underrepresented students, said Sinda K. Vanderpool, Ph.D., associate vice provost for academic enrollment management.
"We created the Office of Student Success Initiatives where we brought together our services for first-generation students, veterans and transfer students. We are growing and coalescing substantial services to help underrepresented groups," Vanderpool said. "We were already doing a great deal of work to support these students, and the McNair Program is a huge boost."
Rachel Renbarger, an educational psychology doctoral student and former McNair Scholar, served on Baylor's grant-writing team and credited the McNair Program for her success.
"Without exaggeration, McNair changed my life. I have no doubt that the program is the reason that I made it to graduate school at Baylor and have succeeded while here," Renbarger said. "Not only did it give me the skills to become a scholar, it gave me a community to overcome the obstacles that come from having a first-generation, low-income background. It broadened my perspective, strengthened my resolve and continues to provide resources to help me navigate the world of academia. This program works."
"Stretch your wings and fly to the sky"
Dr. Ronald McNair was born in 1950 in a low-income community in South Carolina, graduating as his high school's valedictorian. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics from North Carolina A&T State University and enrolled in the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1976, at the age of 26, he earned his Ph.D. in laser physics. Because of his many accomplishments, he was selected by NASA for the space shuttle program in 1978 and became the second African American to fly in space when his first space shuttle mission launched successfully from Kennedy Space Center on Feb. 3, 1984. Two years later he was selected to serve as mission specialist aboard the ill-fated U.S. Challenger space shuttle. He was killed instantly when the Challenger exploded. Dr. McNair was posthumously awarded the Congressional Space Medal of Honor.
After his death, members of Congress provided funding for the Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement Program, dedicated to the high standards of achievement inspired by Dr. McNair's life. Their goal was to encourage low-income and first-generation college students, as well as students from historically underrepresented ethnic groups, to expand their educational opportunities by enrolling in a Ph.D. program and ultimately pursue an academic career.
Throughout his lifetime, Dr. McNair encouraged students to strive to achieve their dreams.
"Whether or not you reach your goals in life depends entirely on how well you prepare for them and how badly you want them. You're eagles! Stretch your wings and fly to the sky," Dr. McNair once said.
"Programs like McNair are designed to not only allow students, who otherwise might lack the resources, to pursue their highest degree aspirations, but also allow them the opportunity to have a serious impact on the communities they come from," Fernandez said. "I have a lot of students who return to their original alma mater because they want to give back to these universities who have given them so much and be the voice for their community."

Supponor strengthens its presence in the Spanish market with the opening of a new office in Barcelona
Supponor opens Barcelona office and appoints commercial and product specialists from FC Barcelona and Mediapro to support the growing importance of virtual advertising to Spanish football and media rights
Supponor, the global leader in virtual advertising technology and solutions in live broadcast sports, is delighted to announce the opening of its new office in Spain. The company has chosen Barcelona as a strategic location that will reinforce its commitment to continuing innovation and expansion of its sixth season of commercial deployment in LaLiga.
The opening of the new office follows the recent long-term deployment agreement with FC Barcelona which was followed by the multi-year renewal with Mediapro to continue to deploy Supponor's advanced virtual advertising technologies in LaLiga and elsewhere in Spain.
Supponor's innovative virtual advertising solutions are delivered using certified perimeter LED systems from TGI and operated by Mediapro as the exclusive production partner for LaLiga. Matches played by FC Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, and RCD Espanyol de Barcelona already deliver multi-feed virtual LED perimeter and virtual camera carpet solutions to approximately 25% of all top flight LaLiga matches each season with further growth planned.
James B Gambrell, CEO of Supponor, said:
"The opening of the office in Barcelona demonstrates our commitment to our clients and partners in Spain. Despite the uncertainty caused by COVID-19, Supponor continues to invest to support growth in the Spanish market to support further European expansion and as the foundation for our larger growth ambitions in the Spanish speaking world.
The new office will be headed up by Casper Siewertsen who will oversee commercial activities with strategic account partners, and Ben Arnold, who will provide local support for continued product & solution development. Casper joins Supponor after 5-years at FC Barcelona where he worked as part of the Business Intelligence on the development of the commercial offering of virtual advertising. Ben returns to Supponor after many years working for Mediapro on the initial development and deployment of Supponor's virtual advertising operations in Spain.
Casper Siewertsen commented that "The importance of Supponor's successful commercial deployment in Spain with Mediapro, its long term broadcast production and rights partner, along with FC Barcelona, underpins LaLiga's importance as a global reference for innovation in virtual advertising and Supponor's proven technology leadership with key industry players in Europe and around the world.".
Supponor pioneered and is the clear market leader in delivering virtual replacement technology of TV-visible signage for real-time broadcast and streaming of in-venue sports advertising. Our advanced technology platform delivers the most powerful and impactful brand activation in broadcast sport by integrating powerful augmented reality overlays with traditional broadcast quality solutions. This dramatically enhances the value of media and marketing rights for mass-audience sporting events for sports rights holders and their brand sponsor and broadcast partners.
As a pure-play technology solutions provider, Supponor has over 15 years of experience in research, development, testing, integration and commercial deployment. Supponor has commercially deployed its virtual advertising replacement solutions at hundreds of live broadcast events across 10 major broadcast territories in Football (LaLiga, German Bundesliga, Serie A, FA), Hockey (NHL), Motor Racing (F1), American Football (NFL), Basketball (NBA) and other Tier 1 Sports.

CSKA Moscow's big man, Nikola Milutinov misses the rest of the season due to a shoulder injury. The Serbian center, after signing a big contract with CSKA Moscow this summer coming from Olympiacos, had an amazing season so far being named Euroleague MVP of the month in December.
Unfortunately, the player is out for the rest of the Euroleague season due to an injury to his right shoulder joint and he will most likely go through surgery.
CSKA Moscow is now out in the market for a new center that will replace Milutinov for the rest of the season.
Nikola Milutinov is out for season 🙃
Our team's center Nikola Milutinov got an injury to his right shoulder joint. He will most likely need a surgery and subsequent rehabilitation, which will not allow the basketball player to go back on the court this season.#CSKAbasket pic.twitter.com/QqXh2rZBHA

Concrete is His Canvas
By Anne Heymen

240 BLACKFORD WAY, SUITE E • 904-671-3930 • FLOOREVERSOLUTION dot COM
Matt Casey, owner of FloorEver Solutions, loves creating artistic magic with concrete.
"We are a decorative concrete flooring company," he explains. "We don't install anything factory made." Instead, this artist-in-concrete offers interior and exterior concrete flooring applications to meet customers' wishes and expectations. "Everything we do is concrete," say Casey. "Our slogan is 'Your Concrete is Our Canvas.'"
On his canvas, Casey, and his staff of three, create a smooth surface on anything from a garage floor to a colorful interior area. "The completed project," says Casey, "comes out smooth, is tough as nails, and is super easy to clean. It's truly custom." He offers a variety of ways to create a special look with patterns, logos, and designs in the floor.
Casey and his wife, Kasey Kruer, who is a psychologist with the Department of Veterans Affairs, and their three sons, ages 8 to 10, moved to St. Augustine in March of 2014. He started his business here the following fall. Casey previously operated a decorative concrete flooring business in Louisville, Kentucky, from 2005 until his move south.
A graduate of the University of Kentucky, where his major was kinesiology and health promotion, Casey learned about concrete flooring from a friend who resided in Las Vegas. While attending college, Casey spent summers in Las Vegas and helped his friend on some of the jobs. Even though he was certified to teach elementary through high school physical education and health, Casey admits he "kind of wanted to get into sales." So, he accepted a position in sales for a health club but did flooring on the side. Finally, he decided to start his own flooring business and, Casey says, "I've been doing it ever since."
OWNER MATT CASEY AT THE FLOOREVER SHOWROOM
Before making a permanent move to St. Augustine, Casey and his family had been visiting his wife's parents, who moved here in 2006, once or twice a year. "We really liked St. Augustine," says Casey, so the family made the decision to move.
When he's not involved with his business, Casey coaches kids in the Police Athletic League (PAL) football program. In the rest of his spare time, he likes watching sports, running, going to the beach, and being with his family.
FloorEver Solutions is located at 240 Blackford Way, Suite E. Stop by to see their wide variety of flooring options or visit the Floorever Solutions website.

Stephen Shore at The Museum of Modern Art, November 19, 2017 – May 28, 2018
"'Whenever I find myself copying myself—making pictures whose problems I've already solved—I give myself new issues to pursue.' Never locking into one style, always moving forward, considering each image as a problem to solve: these practices have defined Stephen Shore's work for the past fifty years, regardless of his techniques and processes, whether shooting in color or black and white, using a view camera or the digital technologies of print-on-demand or Instagram.
Born in 1947, Shore is one of the most influential American photographers of his generation. After spearheading the New Color Photography movement in the United States in the 1970s, Shore became a major catalyst in the renewal of documentary photography in the late 1990s, both in the United States and Europe. He blended the tradition of American photographers such as Walker Evans with influences from various artistic movements, including Pop, Conceptualism, and even Photo-Realism.
Shore's images seem to achieve perfect neutrality, in both subject matter and approach. Rather than being heroic, they are characterized by a poetics of the ordinary and a staunch refusal to create an effect for its own sake, echoing a long American tradition of elevating the simple and the commonplace. His approach cannot be reduced to a style but is best summed up with a few principles from which he has seldom deviated: the search for maximum clarity, the absence of retouching and reframing, and respect for natural light. Above all, he exercises discipline, limiting his shots as much as possible—one shot of a subject, and very little editing afterward. All of these things point to a contemplative, transparent concept of photography, marked by concentration and a willful economy ofmeans that Shore himself, with the deadpan humor that can be seen throughout his work, likens to one of his favorite hobbies: fly-fishing."
Following a chronological order, from the black-and-white images of his teenage years to his daily posts on Instagram today, this survey is the most comprehensive exhibition ever organized on Shore's work, highlighting the many different aspects of his rich career. — Introductory Wall Text

Iraqis are "offended" by Trump's temporary refugee ban?
Home ARCHIVED NEWS 2017 Iraqis are "offended" by Trump's temporary refugee ban?
Iraqis are "offended" by Trump's temporary refugee ban?
In foreign policy there is no such thing as gratitude, only interests.
That is, Iraqis have no responsibility for the security of their own country or an interest in combating radical Islam and will only accept our assistance in the effort to free Iraq from the threat of ISIS on the condition that we re-locate Iraqis to the U.S.
Compassion has its place, but not as blackmail, especially, as in this case, when it conflicts with protecting U.S. citizens.
American foreign policy has, for too long, been the captive of a liberal need for emotionally satisfying gestures and a willingness to subvert our interests by submitting to the psychological demands of another culture.
That is, the existence of ISIS and its presence in Iraq is primarily a Muslims' own self-created situation.
The U.S. strategic interests in Iraq include: the comprehensive defeat and elimination of ISIS and the establishment of a stable, non-Islamist, if not democratic, Iraq that will act as a bulwark against Iranian regional hegemony by fracturing the Shia Iran, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon crescent.
I don't see how moving Muslims to Peoria contributes to those goals.

Reconciliation pitfalls
By Sugeeswara Senadhira
The task of balancing the sensitivities in the South and North is indeed a tightrope walk. This unenviable mission of President Maithripala Sirisena was aptly described by Venerable Kollupitiye Sangharakkitha Thera of the Kelaniya Raja Maha Vihara at the 'Aaloka Pooja' to invoke blessings on the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the motherland. He said that President Sirisena worked for reconciliation with utmost dedication and honesty, and even risked his southern voter base for this policy.
"People and the country cannot progress through divisions and separations," President Sirisena said. Everybody should get together and work in understanding with each other and find a solution for this question. That is what is required for the country today. Many people who mess up the problems don't have any ability to solve them. I invite the Venerable Maha Sangha, other religious leaders, scholars and intellectuals to sit around one table and discuss about this matter. It is everyone's responsibility to ensure that the sound of gunfire is not heard once again. Everybody should take the responsibility to build the economy for all the people in a fair society."
In these circumstances, another pit was dug by the well-meaning, but outspoken, Cabinet Spokesman Rajitha Senaratne with his comparison of soldiers, JVP militants, and Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) terrorists. Although he was correct in stating that all of them are citizens of Sri Lanka, there is a distinct difference between a soldier and a terrorist. His ill-timed statement caused uproar and the extreme nationalist elements in the South were jubilant because they could use it as a weapon to attack the Government, without considering about the long-term harm that it would cause reconciliation efforts. Finally, President Sirisena was compelled to intervene. Without mincing words, the President said some people did not understand the difference between a war hero and a terrorist.
Steps for reconciliation
The Unity Government has taken many steps for reconciliation. Thousands of acres of land in the North and East, temporarily acquired by the Army during the conflict were returned to the original owners and now the armed forces retain only a small extent of land essential for the security and defence of the military bases. Furthermore, singing of the national anthem in Tamil is in practice today, despite the objections from the extremist elements in the South. The Government also deviated from the practice of a grand victory day celebration with pomp and pageantry, as it could hurt Tamil sentiments. The Ranaviru Commemoration Day is now being held as a commemoration of the members of the forces who sacrificed their lives for the motherland, and not as a victory day.
While the Government has taken these bold steps toward reconciliation, it is distressing that similar reciprocal signals are lacking from Tamil leaders. The belligerent move by none other than Chief Minister C.V. Wigneswaran, to hold a commemoration ceremony to remember the dead on the death anniversary of LTTE Leader Velupillai Prabhakaran is a case in point. Hitherto, the 18 May remembrance was held on a small scale, without the participation of the Chief Minister. This year, not only did the erudite former Supreme Court Judge led the ceremony, but he also allowed youth clad in black to hold a motorcycle parade. It is surprising that a person like Wigneswaran has resorted to such tactics, which could lead to another youth uprising, that Sampanthan, Sumanthiran, and Wigneswaran may not be able to control.
Unfortunately, Wigneswaran and other Tamil leaders have become hostages to Tamil Diaspora politics. The West-based Diaspora leaves no stone unturned when it comes to attacking the Government. Last week, British Member of Parliament, Hywel Williams raised the issue of former Defence Attaché, Brigadier Priyanka Fernando in the British Parliament. Fernando allegedly made a threatening gesture at members of the Tamil Diaspora, who demonstrated in front of the High Commission. Minister of State for Asia and the Pacific, Mark Field said that he had met Foreign Minister Tilak Marapana during the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in April and "the former Defence Attaché's position was formally ended by the Government of Sri Lanka on 15 April."
Last week, Cabinet Spokesman Rajitha Senaratne was asked by a section of the media to specify if civilians were killed in the battle against the LTTE. He replied truthfully, that in any war, some civilians were bound to perish. He failed to mention that when the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Sri Lanka met in the British Parliament, Michael Morris, Baron Naseby PC expressed the hope that, as a result of the debate in Parliament, the United Kingdom (UK) will recognize the truth that no one in the Sri Lankan Government ever wanted to kill Tamil civilians."Furthermore, the UK must now get the United Nations (UN) and the office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Geneva to accept a civilian casualty level of 7,000 to 8,000, not 40,000. On top of that, the UK must recognize that this was a war against terrorism, so the rules of engagement are based on international humanitarian law, not the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR)," Baron Naseby said.
Dr. Senaratne could have used Baron Naseby's statement to clarify the issue and shut the mouths of those prejudiced media personnel.
President Sirisena appointed Foreign Minister Tilak Marapana to lead the Sri Lankan delegation to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) meeting in March 2018 in Geneva, and the Minister reaffirmed the country's total commitment to the reconciliation process. He briefed the Council about the steps taken, including the setting up of the Office of Missing Persons (OMP), the release of lands acquired by the military and other developments.
While the reconciliation process is progressing in all fronts, it is surprising to see the growth of hostilities in the North, especially when it comes from a once respected Supreme Court Judge turned Chief Minister, Wigneswaran.

These guys were great. I had driven hundreds of miles to dealerships that had either photoshopped their vehicles photos or creatively omitted issues on their cars. I arrived at Americars and was pleasantly surprised. There were a few scratches on the vehicle but I knew of everyone of them from the pictures. They gave me a great deal. I will definitely come back to them for my next car.
Great people and service. Ask for Moe!
I bought my daughter a 2008 mercedes c300 from this dealership .. it was a good experience , the car was as advertised , straight and honest dealership. I will go there again for my next auto purchase.
Recently purchased a 2008 Toyota Highlander. I had never purchased a car from a smaller shop like this, but Ahmad went out of his way to ensure I felt comfortable about the car. He allowed me to take it to the dealership to inspect it fully before purchase. These are really nice people who mainly wholesale cars, but are trying to increase their retail.
I bought a 2008 Ford Expedition about 8 months ago. I was allowed to have my mechanic check it out before purchasing. There were a few things identified that needed to be done if I bought the vehicle, but that's to be expected on a car of that age. But the main thing was they do allow for you to have your own mechanic survey the vehicle for you. This was a big comfort boost in my purchase. Everything they said at Americars Group was followed thru on 100%. I'll use them again. In fact, I'm considering getting a pick up truck. When I was checking their web sight, I decided to write this review about my previous purchase.
My entire experience working with the Americars Group has been exceptional in every aspect. All the personnel are genuine, highly experienced, and put forth commendable effort to satisfy their customers needs! They provide their customers with a variety of vehicle options which they then thoroughly discuss the compatibility of your wants and needs. Their prices are incomparable and they offer amazing rates! Overall, my car buying experience with Americars has been the absolute best so far. I would recommend them as the top car dealership in the area!
Made my car buying process very easy and nice people would recommend them. Thanks!
Friendly and honest staff. The best experience that I've had buying a car. I recommend buying your next car here.
Americars is a true BUYER'S experience! I happened upon this gem on Cargurus and the price on the 2014 Kia Soul was too low to be believed! Sure enough, not only did they offer me the keys immediately for a test drive with no sales pitch, they told me I could take it to any garage I wanted to be looked over before committing. They made every last effort they could to make sure I was satisfied and that there was full transparency throughout. I even had the car HAND-DELIVERED to my workplace after it was cleaned and detailed. I could go on and on about these guys, but I'm just going to say that they are the greatest and you should DEFINITELY check them out!
The staff was very helpful as well as knowledgeable, they helped me pick out a great car and at a very great price as well. I highly recommend this location for anyone looking for a good car from someone who knows what they are talking about!

The 28mm Christoffer Log Cabin With Side Porch measuring 5.75 x 3.50.
A very striking and unusual shaped log cabin.
The 28mm Christoffer Log Cabin takes inspiration from the popular pentagonal range. Ideal as a summerhouse or craft room, the double doors and two opening windows create a light and airy interior.
Whilst many of the corner designs are available with a storage annexe, the Christoffer replaces this element with a side porch. A superb alternative to the apex style with front canopy, the side porch can be positioned to the left or right and provides the perfect shaded spot for outdoor furniture.
The Christoffer is constructed using individual interlocking Spruce logs. The Dutch pride themselves in providing high quality garden buildings and in doing so eliminate finger jointing and mixing of the timber species from all log cabins.
Supplied untreated, a log cabin will require treatment as soon as it has been installed - one way to ensure a long life. Tuin offers a great range of treatment options including stains, paints and impregnation fluid.
Free shingles for this Christoffer 28mm Log Cabin with Side Porch are the same quality as our standard range and made by the same manufacturer. However, they are last year's stock and old range colours, also some packaging may not be 'as new'.
Floor Required Finish off your Log Cabin with a floating floor, floor joists are included ONLY if you order a floor with your Christoffer Log Cabin.
Floor NOT Required 18mm Floor Required (+£226.33) Ideal when using your Christoffer Log Cabin for storage or as a summerhouse. 26mm Floor Required (+£357.38) Ideal when using your Christoffer Log Cabin all year around for example as a heavy duty storage solution, home office or craft room. HQ Floor Required (+£433.07) The highest quality floor we provide, ideal for varnishing and use of a presentation floor.
Standard Foundations included Foundation beams are essential for any Log Cabin build to ensure untreated wood is not directly on the ground. Tanalised Profiled (+£40.98) Profiled to allow water to be drawn away from the first log of your Christoffer Log Cabin. Hardwood Profiled (+£129.00) When regularly oiled these add an extra level of aesthetic to your Log Cabin. Composite Profiled (+£108.00) Made from recycled plastic that will never rot.
Delivery time for the Christoffer Log Cabin is 7 - 14 working days.
.Erected in inclement weather.Occassional head scratching over instructions but no major problems.Delighted with the summer house and look forward to many years use.
Great quality product, exactly as described. Delivered on time and excellent customer support from all at Tuin. Highly recommend both product and Tuin.
One word...Brilliant!! From ordering through to delivery and then construction. The cabin is very well made and fitted onto the decking perfectly. I struggled a bit with the door frame construction and fitting the shingles seemed to take quite a bit longer than i would have expected. That said constant reference to the instructions and videos on the Tuin site were invaluable. We are very pleased with the cabin and are looking forward to many hours of entertaining in the garden. Highly recommended with excellent value for money.
Fantastic log cabin, it looks amazing, very spacious inside and out, I love it so much we are holidaying at home this year. Great service, delivery, highly recommended.

HIST 516 Historical Marxism II : Communism and Post-Communism Select Term: 2022 Summer2022 Spring2022 Fall2021 Summer2021 Spring2021 Fall2020 Summer2020 Spring2020 Fall2019 Summer2019 Spring2019 Fall
Coming out of the Bolshevik Revolutionin Russia, and then expanding to both Eastern Europe and China after World War II, Communism came to exert such a pervasive influence on the 20th century that up to the early 1980s, there was no aspect of politics, international relations, social life, art or culture that was not permeated by it. And yet, barely two decades after its fall, the set of theories and practices that was once regarded as " the future of humanity" lies almost forgotten. HIST 516 is an attempt to think back from the early 21st century to the concrete visage and historical legacy of Marxism in power, exploring especially the party that was its chief instrument, the theories through which it eternalized its dictatorship, fostered a permanent culture of "the enemy" and legitimized its purges, as well as the daily structures of living perpetually in an atmosphere of abnormal politics, with a new social contract of basic services but without any fundamental, constitutionally guaranteed rights and political empowerment.

Liner Note Author: John Collis.
Recording information: Chicago, IL; New York, NY.
Rhino's superlative Elmore James retrospective is essential, not only because it brings together 21 of the artist's finest sides, but because it collects those tracks from various periods (1951-1969) and labels (Trumpet, Chess, Flair, Fire, Chief, and Flashback). James's erratic recording history makes a representative one-stop compilation difficult, but from "Dust My Broom," James's signature tune and the set's opener, to "Standing at the Crossroads, " the raw 1960 single that brings the disc to a close, THE SKY IS CRYING serves as both a career overview and a greatest-hits collection.
Whether on slow blues (the title track) or boogie-woogie grooves ("Shake Your Moneymaker"), the slide master's slashing technique and feral tenor voice are on full display. James's slide work is justifiably exalted--though there have been slide players more technically advanced, James's wild, wiry leads have indelibly influenced nearly all blues players that followed him. James's singing, too, is ferocious and marked by extraordinary intensity (he has what can be known in the blues as a "crying" voice). This is electric Chicago blues of the first order, and a finer compilation of this blues-guitar master is difficult to imagine.

I was glad to hear that Thomas Praus aka Stylewalker will be blogging from the Berlin International Film Festival Berlinale. Blogging under the label of the Berlin-based public broadcaster RBB, he'll have full press privileges. It's great to see German broadcasters opening up for new media, you can really see a massive change going on there. But also, it sounds like good fun. Enjoy, Thomas!
Update: Thomas just told me about the Berlinale Blog address. Thanks!
Hey! The adress will be http://blog.rbb-online.de/roller/berlinaleblog/ but don't pay attention to the foto, I look like I had mumps, I think it's because RBB online editors are not too familiar with Photoshop (or just don't pay attention to tha possible Mumps asscociation..) Will start by tomorrow, tune in to see nice pics!

Colin Kaepernick grievance set for trial after NFL dismissal request is denied
Former quarterback says he has been blackballed by teams
Kaepernick started wave of anthem protests over social injustice
Guardian sport
Thu 30 Aug 2018 16.57 EDT Last modified on Thu 30 Aug 2018 23.04 EDT
Taking a knee: two years on, where does the NFL stand? – video explainer
Colin Kaepernick's grievance against the NFL is set to go to trial after an arbitrator turned down what was effectively a request by the league for the case to be dismissed.
Kaepernick filed the grievance in October last year, claiming owners have colluded to keep him out of the league after he knelt during the national anthem to highlight racial injustice in the United States. Under the league's Collective Bargaining Agreement teams and the NFL are forbidden from coming together to deprive a player of employment.
Mark Geragos (@markgeragos)
Breaking news @Kaepernick7 pic.twitter.com/mAYhkRKwB9
Kaepernick, who led the 49ers to the Super Bowl in 2013, left San Francisco at the end of the 2016 season and has not been picked up by a team since. The fact that teams with a need for a quarterback have passed up the chance to sign Kaepernick left many to believe owners are either punishing him for his stance or believe his presence would alienate fans. Eric Reid, who knelt besides Kaepernick, has also filed a grievance. He too has been out of a job since leaving the 49ers, despite being in his prime and a solid player.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: what sports have taught me about race in America
In March, Reid said he had no doubt his protest had prevented him from finding a job. "The notion that I can be a great signing for your team for cheap, not because of my skill set but because I've protested systemic oppression, is ludicrous. If you think [it] is, then your mindset is part of the problem too," Reid wrote on Twitter.
The new NFL season starts next Thursday when the reigning Super Bowl champions, the Philadelphia Eagles, play the Atlanta Falcons.

Avril Lavigne, Luis Fonsi, DJ Paul Oakenfold, Tamer Hosny, Assala Nasri and Hussain Al Jasmi will all perform at the Opening Ceremony of the Special Olympics World Games Abu Dhabi next week.
The singers will take the stage on March 14 at the Zayed Sports City Stadium.
Canadian pop star Lavigne expressed her excitement about coming to the UAE.
"I have been working with the Special Olympics for a number of years and this will truly be an incredible experience performing at the largest and most unified Special Olympics World Games ever held," said Lavigne.
"These athletes are so inspiring and they are a huge part of what we believe in and support through The Avril Lavigne Foundation. I want to shine a light on their courage and determination and I am honoured to have been invited to help support them," she added.
The event will feature 7,500 athletes from across 190 nations. During the Athlete Parade, they will be side-by-side with Special Olympics Global Ambassadors including Didier Drogba, Michelle Kwan, Dikembe Mutombo, Vladimir Grbic and Apolo Ohno.

Customs Union between Guatemala and Honduras, from 10 hours to 15 minutes!
Trading across borders in Central America has been a severe problem for many years. In 2017, cargo trucks used to spend 10 hours to travel less than one kilometer across the borders between Guatemala and Honduras.

Your Town Tuesday: Kimball Mayor Talks New Businesses, Expansions [VIDEO]
KIMBALL - This week in our "Your Town Tuesday" series on WJON we're highlighting the community of Kimball.
It's a town of about 760 people just to the south of St. Cloud.
The busy four-way stop in Kimball, where Highways 15 and 55 meet, is getting some new businesses. However, Mayor Tammy Konz says what the developer wants to do remains to be seen.
Konz says the developer is expected to bring his plan to the city council in the coming months, and may ask for some help in the form of a Tax Increment Financing plan.
Also, she says the Heritage House senior living facility is planning an expansion...
Konz says the only sad thing is that the town is losing it's bowling alley.
