The term industrial masculinity has been used to describe men who are most opposed to the concept of global warming; they have a "strong foothold on the world." In their view, the "world is there for humans to conquer and extract resources." A U.S. Gallup poll showed a correlation of climate denial and conservative white men. In Sweden denialism is most articulated by a small group of, almost exclusively, men and conservative think tanks. The nature-destructive industrial masculiniy is now understood as doing bad, and it is important to understand the masculine practices in shaping the environment.[3]
Although the disadvantages of the male are usually described as socially mediated, males from conception are more vulnerable, with an excess of development and behavioral disorders. Social attitudes have been felt to compound these biological deficits. Evolutionary traits necessary for early mominid males, such as physical strength andspacial skills, are not as important in the modern world, but we have most of the same genes.[1]
She is from Los Angeles. Her father, a cinephile, is credited for developing her love of film. Initially wanting to be a screenwriter, she made short films in high school.[2] She attended NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, graduating with a BFA in film and television.[3] At NYU she transitioned to directing.[2]
Her first job after graduation was as a writers' assistant.[4] This was followed by directing commercials and writing for short films. By 2017 she had steady television work, directing and writing for shows including Ballers, Suits and Billions.[5] Her debut film, Fair Play , which she wrote and directed, was personal for her [6]and based on her life experiences. Her experience as the only woman in the Ballers writers' room is described as life changing. She felt that she had to "act like one of the boys," or lose her seat at the table.[4] Also, she found that as she became more successful the men she dated became insecure. Domont used the genre of erotic thriller to show the ways women are forced to play ugly to survive and to demonstrate the dangers of male inferiority.[7] The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival to a "rapturous response". Netflix won a distribution bidding war for $20 million.[3]
As a filmmaker, she looks to create conversation and debate with films that shock and push the envelope;[3] manipulate and do something different with a genre;[8] "and, ultimately have something really piercing to say at the end."[2]

Dr. Marta Weinstock-Rosin (born 1935) is an Austrian-born Israeli neuropharmacologist, best known as the developer of rivastigmine (Exelon).
Weinstock-Rosin was born in Vienna.[23] After her father was arrested for being Jewish, the family fled Austria for England in 1939, shortly before the war. Her early days in England were difficult; her father was arrested as a citizen of an enemy state. Food was a challenge to find as her mother had no skills and didn't speak English; and much of her time was spent in air raid shelters.[3] At age 12 she looked up the word "pharmacologist" in an encyclopedia and decided that research and chemistry would be her career.[24] She received a PharmD and M.S. in pharmacology form University of London, followed by a Ph.D. pharmacology from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School.
She lectured at University of London, but felt she had been passed over for promotion. She was told that she was "not one of us," and "you never made it to Christmas parties." This prompted a move to Israel in 1969, joining the faculty at Tel Aviv University, and later to Hebrew University. She became a professor at Hebrew University in 1981 and head of its School of Pharmacy in 1983.[25]
While studying the effect of morphine on breathing by lowering the brainstem acetylcholine level, Weinstock-Rosin found by "amazing coincidence" a drug, rivastigmine, that selctively increased acetylcholine levels in the frontal lobes. She soon realized this drug could be helpful for Alzheimer's Disease, which has a specific decrease of acetylcholine in this same region. The drug was sold to Sandoz, now a part of Novartis. She tried to interest Teva, the only major Israeli drug maker at the time, but they were not interested. Weinstock-Rosin and the university were granted "fine royalties." The origin of the drug was kept secret, ostensibly because of the Arab boycott, and it was not until 1997 that Weinstock-Rosin received recognition for her discovery.[3] It was patented in 1985 and came into medical use as Exelon in 1997.[26] Rivastigmine capsules, liquid solution and patches are used for the treatment of mild to moderate dementia of the Alzheimer's type, and in the UK for mild to moderate Parkinson's disease dementia.[27] Greater than $1 billion of Exelon was sold in 2013, the year before it went off patent.[28] After developing rivastigmine, her research focus turned to finding a preventative treatment for Alzheimer's.[29]
Weinstock-Rosin won the 2014 Israel Prize for Medicine for her discovery of rivastigmine.[30] She is an emeritus professor at the Hebrew University’s School of Pharmacy.[3]
The The Dick Van Dyke Show ran on CBS form 1961–1967. One of the show's leading story lines centered on the work of television comedy writer Rob Petrie (Dick Van Dyke), the head writer for the fictional Alan Brady Show in New York. The show was based on Carl Reiner's life and was an early television depiction of a writers' room.[1]
The Writers' Room was a 2013–2014 American television talk show hosted by screenwriter and actor Jim Rash. Each episode features a behind-the-scenes look at the writing staff of popular television series.[2][3]
In the fifth and final season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, stand-up comedian Midge Maisel is largely relegated to a writers' room.[4]

Jiménez Enoa was born in Havana into a evolutionary family, where almost everyone was a member of the Communist Party. He describes his youth as growing up within the "automatism of the Revolution." He lived mainly with his grandparents. His paternal grandfather was a bodyguard for Fidel Castro, "Che" Guerara and other revolutionary leaders and lived around the corner from Castro. His father is a retired colonel in the Ministry of Interior. He was a poor student in school, and had to attend a high school in the country. He wanted to be a baseball player growing up. He found his skills were not adequate and chose to to become a sports writer. He graduated from the University of Havana in 2012 with a degree in journalism. This was followed by service time at the Ministry of Information as an archivist until 2016. While there he began his journalism career by writing sports articles for OnCuba.[3]
He left the MININT in 2016 to found El Estornudo, an independent magazine of narrative journalism.

Danny Hakim (born March 10, 1971) is an investigative reporter for the The New York Times. Hakim shared a Pulitzer Prize in 2009 for his reporting on the Eliot Spitzer prostitution scandal.
Hsakim was born in Virginia Beach, Virginia,[6] and grew up in Norfolk, Virginia.[3] During high school he became bored with traditional education. He learned about St. John's College from his mother, a writer. St. John's has a less traditional approach, emphasizing discussion based learning and the study of great books. He majored in philosophy, had no early interest in writing and briefly attended art school after his 1993 graduation.[6] His first job in writing was as a copy aide at the Washington Post.[3]
His first reporting job was as a police reporter for the Greenville News in South Carolina. He then worked as a financial reporter for SmartMoney before joining The New York Times in 2000.[3]
His first assignment at the Times was as bureau chief in Detroit. This was followed by a stint as Albany, New York bureau chief. Hakin covered four New York governors during his posting in Albany. He uncovered scandals involving two of them that led to one resigning and one withdrawing from the 2010 governor's race.[7]
On March 10, 2008, he broke the story[8] that New York Eliot Spitzer had been "caught on a federalwiretap arranging to meet with a high-priced prostitute at a Washington hotel." Spitzer was identified as "Client 9," met with a prostitute from the online international prostitution ring Emperors Club VIP. He tried to resist calls for his resignation, but could not do so, and resigned on March 12, 2008,[9] two days after Hakim's story. His successor also was scrutinized by Hakim. Hakim was part of a team of reporters who broke the news that Governor David Paterson had abused his power as governor to try to squash an abuse case.
[10][11] Within days of the article, Paterson ended his campaign for governor.[12]
In 2012 Hakim was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize in 2012[13] for co-authoring a series on the abuse and neglect of the developmentally disabled in New York State nursing homes. The articles identified over 1200 unexplained deaths over the previous decade, and led to removal of top level administrators, the firing of 130 employees and to the passage of laws protecting the disabled.[14][15]
In 2012 he moved to London to become the Times European economic correspondent.[7]
In 2016 Hakim published an investigative report on genetically modified crops and pesticides. He reported that genetically modified crops have not accelerated increases on crop yields or cut down the use of pesticides.[16]Industry response was rapid and was virulently negative toward the article. His claims were described as false and recycled, and as "wrong in about every way they could be."[17] Another response accused him of using distorted facts and "lying."[18]
According to Hutchinson's testimony she was assured "Trump world" would find a job for jher.[2]
In 2021 he announced that he had a rare chronic disorder of his left ankle, Mueller-Weiss syndrome.[3] Rafael Nadal has had symptoms of Mueller–Weiss in his left foot since the beginning of his tennis career in his late teens,[4] being diagnosed in 2005.[5] He put off surgery as long as he could.[6] He has successfully continued his career after having surgery in 2021, winning the 2022 Australian and French Opens, though continuing to play through pain.[7] In winning the French Open he had two numbing injections and anti-inflammatories before each of his seven matches[8] to alleviate the pain; he won the tournament playing on a numb foot. He said he would not do this again.[4] Regarding his injury:
I am not injured; I am a player living with an injury. It's something that is there, and unfortunately, my day by day is difficult, honestly. It's difficult for me to accept the situation sometimes.[9]
He has remained active in the local Arizona music scene with mentoring young artists[12] and 2022 performances with Matt Rollings[13] and a tribute to Jerry Riopelle.[14]
McBride & the reconstituted in 2021; Herndon called this last iteration "almost Zen-like." In February, 2022, the band had their first Nashville concert in 20 years.[15][16][17]

After Nash's return to Phoenix in 2004, they won 33 more games than they did the previous season.
In 1978 during a college trip to Germany he befriended an American singer, Buffalo Wayne. In 1982 Wayne invited Lovett to play with him at the annual Schueberfouer in Luxembourg. One of the events was an American musical tent. The owner of that event was a fan of the Phoenix, Arizona, house band J. David Sloan and the Rogues. [20] He invited the Rogues for the event, and Lovett sat in with the group, which did some of his songs. They opened his eyes to what his songs could sound like with proper backing. Sloan offered Lovett a deal on studio time, first day free. In 1984 Lovett took him up on the offer. After several stays in Arizona over that summer he recorded 18 songs. The demo tape of the 18 songs led to his first record deal. He made many longtime contacts in Arizona during that time. Several of the Rogue players Ray Herndon, Matt McKenzie and Matt Rollings, went on to play in his band, and through them he met Francine Reed, who toured with him for three decades.[21]

File:Navicular bone12.png|thumb|As a metaphor, the navicular bone, shown in green, is known as the keystone of the foot[22]
Readers are not left wanting, although the content may not be complete enough to satisfy a serious student or researcher and The article meets the six B-Class criteria:
Mueller-Weiss Syndrome is a rare and painful[23]idiopathic condition of the adult tarsal navicular characterized by progressive fragmentation leading to mid- and hindfoot pain and deformity.[24] It is most commonly seen in females, ages 40-60.[25] Characteristic imaging shows lateral navicular collapse.[26] This disease has been traditionally considered a form of adult onset osteonecrosis, with blood flow cutoff to the navicular leading to necrosis.[27] The onset is sub-acute; subsequent foot discomfort may progress to disabling pain with prolonged standing. Initial tratment is conservative. Surgical options are reseverved for greater than six months of severe pain. Pain is in mid- and hind-foot, with tenderness on the top of the mid-foot.[28] There is no gold standard of treatment, with many surgical approaches.[29]
It has been traditionally considered a spontaneous osteonecrosis of the navicular bone, but there is no certain pathogenic explanation. Pathologic evidence of osteonecrosis (ie, empty lacunae) is not seen in all specimens.[32][33] Trauma and chronic stress changes may play a role.[34]
Weight-bearing radiography of the foot is the mainstay in diagnosis. CT and MRI are adjuncts can be useful early in the disease to demonstrate osteoarthritic changes. Despite its distinctive radiological features, it is felt to be an under-diagnosed condition.[35]
Characteristic findings include:
Lateral collapse of the navicular
Dorsomedial subluxation of the remnant navicular
Lateral deviation of the talus
Severe disease may demonstrate:
Pes planus (flat foot)
Osteoarthritis of the talonavicular joint with or without the involvement of other midfoot joints[35]
A sherpa is an experienced Washington political consultant brought on to guide an adminstation's nominee to Senate approval.[1]
Sherpa is a word taken from the language of the Sherpa, a nomadic people of the Himalayas. It literally means "people of the East."[2] The English word "sherpa" originally referred to people hired as porters and guides by climbers of the Himalayan Mountains. Sherpas have a long history of helping to navigate difficult mountain terrain. Senate confirmation has been compared to mountain climbing, dangerous and exhausting. Like the Himalayan climbers, nominees need guides "through the obstacle course of interviews and hearings."[3]
Supreme Court and top cabinet post nominations have become increasingly partisan and contentious. Nominees for these positions now have designated sherpas with extensive political experience and are reliable.[4] Sub-cabinet nominees are generally handled by department level political staff.[5] The role of chief strategist to get someone confirmed is unpaid, and largely out of public view. The role has many facets:
Media messenger-shaping the candidates image, devising strategies to deal with reporters and coordinating calls with key senators[4]
Traffic cop, everybody wants a bit of time with the nominee.[4]
Liaison with both the senate and the administration; act as escort for nominee to meet senators and be an adviser for the president[6]
Coach-what to say and when to say it and how to have proper demeanor[5]
Eight days after Reagan was on TV and acknowledged the Iran-Contra affair, Duberstein took over as chief of staff. Around that time it had been revealed that Nancy Reagan had used an astrologer to determine dates for the president's public appearances. Reagan's presidency had reached a low point; approval rating was at 37%.[3] His promotion was called a wake-up call for a "drowsy White House." He came to the job with energy, loyalty, hard work and enthusiasm, having earned the nickname Duderdog; and, he made sure to call Nancy twice a day.[4] He had Reagan give a mea culpa address to the nation; poll numbers went right up and the presidency had been turned around.[5]
Duberstein, one of the most connected Washington people, was a regular at Washington parties and network talk shows.[6]
A gregarious and rumpled, wise-cracking ‘people person’ of relentless optimism and energy...the consummate Washington insider and institutionalist, a big man with an easy smile and a generous laugh who could be hard-nosed, loved gossiping with reporters, believed in bipartisanship and offered his advice to anyone who asked — especially those who succeeded him in the chief of staff job.[7]
Duberstein noted that as a Brooklynite he always enjoyed working with people.[8] He was forever loved by the Washington press for all the leaking he did during the Reagan years; and, "he loved being Ken Duberstein."[6]
He was a political moderate Rockefeller Republican, fiscally conservative and socially moderate.[9]
Before McCain secured the 2008 Republican presidential nomination, Duberstein made inquiries about running the transition team; McCain was not interested.[10][11][12][13][14] He later broke from his party in the election and supported Obama; commenting on the nomination of Sarah Palin for vice-president, he said: “Even at McDonald’s, you’re interviewed three times before you’re given a job."[15]
Duberstein founded The Duberstein Group Inc. in 1987. It is a consulting services company providing corporate consulting and government relations services.[16] Among its client are Amazon, BP and MLB.[17] Duberstein was hired by Russian authorities, via Goldman Sachs, to lobby against the Magnitsky Bill (as known as the Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act), a bill in the U.S. Congress "to impose sanctions on persons responsible for the detention, abuse, or death of Sergei Magnitsky, and for other gross violations of human rights in the Russian Federation".[18][19] Duberstein showed discretion and did not discuss his work, leading to an "air of mystery" about him and what he did for his clients.
In 2020 he established the Public Service Internship Endowment, at his alma mater, Franklin and Marshall, assisting F&M students who secure unpaid internships in public service in Washington, D.C. He was on the college's Board of Trustees from 1994 to 2010, and then became an emeritus trustee.[20] At the Institute of Politics at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government he chaired a senior advisory committee and was a “constant and inspiring presence” to students.[7]
Duberstein and Colin Powell became close during his time as chief of staff and Powell's position as National Security Advisor in the Reagan White House. When Powell considered a 1996 presidential, he was advised by Duberstein. Duberstein guided him to "play the press" and win over Republican leaders.[9] Powell ended up not making the run. When Powell's reputation was damaged by his role in the 2003 Iraq War, he used Duberstein to act as a consigliere to repair his name.[7]
This happens to be a very interesting topic. To this day the CIA will not make public information on the extent of its involvement early in the cold war with the hearts and minds campaign; neither will they make a full accounting of the organizations that acted as fronts for their covert activities. So, we are and will forever be left with no smoking gun. The best we have is what we have; it will never be better. All of the references can be challenged at some level. Clearly, from well-done academic papers (tho not meeting full wiki criteria as references),CIA involvement was strongly adumbrated. And, the newspaper reference made it straight out. Even with its leftist bias, wiki does not rule-out using such. BTW, peruse the newspaper and you will see that it would meet wiki criteria. There was a period in American history when there was intellectual Marxist literature and reporting.
Wiki guideline: "Sometimes non-neutral sources are the best possible sources for supporting information about the different viewpoints held on a subject. Common sources of bias include political, financial, religious, philosophical, or other beliefs. Although a source may be biased, it may be reliable in the specific context." Specifically, the newspaper supports the adumbrations of the academic papers; In-text attribution is appropriate.
I propose we close paragraph 1 with: Project HOPE has been criticized for these conflicts of interests, including CIA ties reported by Marxist writer C.D. Cavanagh.[22] These problems have been noted to be "a cautionary tale for development organizations seeking mass appeal now."

Articles and other encyclopedic content should be written in a formal tone. Standards for formal tone vary a bit depending upon the subject matter but should usually match the style used in Featured- and Good-class articles in the same category. Encyclopedic writing has a fairly academic approach, while remaining clear and understandable. Formal tone means that the article should not be written using argot, slang, colloquialisms, doublespeak, legalese, or jargon that is unintelligible to an average reader; it means that the English language should be used in a businesslike manner.

Avoid accusing other editors of bad faith without clear evidence in the form of diffs. Making such claims often serves no purpose and could be seen as inflammatory and hence aggravate a dispute. Without clear evidence that the action of another editor is actually in bad faith or harassment, repeatedly alleging bad faith motives could be construed as a personal attack. The result could be accusations of bad faith on your part, which tends to create a nasty cycle of unhelpful accusations and counter-accusations.
When you find a passage in an article that is biased, inaccurate, or unsourced the best practice is to improve it if you can rather than deleting salvageable text. For example, if an article appears biased, add balancing material or make the wording more neutral. Include citations for any material you add. If you do not know how to fix a problem, ask for help on the talk page.
To help other editors understand the reasoning behind your edits, always explain your changes in the edit summary. If an edit is too complex to explain in an edit summary, or the change is contentious, add a section to the talk page that explains your rationale. Be prepared to justify your changes to other editors on the talk page. If you are reverted, continue to explain yourself; do not start an edit war.
Talking to other parties is not a mere formality, but an integral part of writing the encyclopedia. Discussing heatedly or poorly – or not at all – will make other editors less sympathetic to your position, and prevent you from effectively using later stages in dispute resolution. Sustained discussion between the parties, even if not immediately successful, demonstrates your good faith and shows you are trying to reach a consensus. Try negotiating a truce or proposing a compromise through negotiation.
Do not continue edit warring; once sustained discussion begins, productively participating in it is a priority. Uninvolved editors who are invited to join a dispute will likely be confused and alarmed if there are large numbers of reverts or edits made while discussion is ongoing.
Talk page discussion is a prerequisite to almost all of Wikipedia's venues of higher dispute resolution. If you wish at any time to request a Third Opinion (3O), use the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard (DRN), or open a request for arbitration, you will be expected to show there has been talk page discussion of the dispute. Actual discussion is needed; discussion conducted entirely through edit summaries is inadequate. Requests for Comment generally require that at least an effort be made to discuss the matter in question before making the request.

Kiyoshi Oshikawa
Kiyoshi Oshikawa (January 1, 1881-March 18, 1944) was a Japanese baseball player, executive and the founder of the first Japanese professional baseball team.
In 1920 Oshikawa, with two former Waseda classnates, founded the first professional baseball team in Japan, the Nihon Athletic Association (日本運動協会). By 1921 there were four teams.[39] Oshigawa was a star baseball player at Waseba University, and a student of Professor Abe Isoo, known as the father of Japanese college baseball. Oshigawa participated in a 1905 baseball tour of the United States under Abe's leadership. This was the first tour of the U.S. by a Japanese team. The tour had a strong influence on Oshigawa. He adopted the concept of franchise for the NAA, claiming a city as its base with exclusive right to play in that city, in a stadium built for the team. Oshigawa was an advocate for baseball and publicly defended the sport, which at the time was viewed as harmful.[40] The first priority of the NAA was building a stadium, using the American professional baseball model. Oshikawa's first team was made up of former Waseda players with good academic credentials and excellent personalities; his goal was the development of baseball in Japan. [41] Oshikawa was among the first nine enshrined in the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame in 1959.[42] He also founded the predecessor of the Chunichi Dragons) and was an executive of the Korakuen Eagles.[37]
Oshikawa's father was evangelist Masayoshi Oshikawa and his brother was Shunro Oshikawa, pioneer science fiction writer. The brothers were teammates on the Waseda baseball team and both were on the 1905 U.S. tour.[42]

In the initial period, until 1956, their work met with criticism, as departing from the canon of socialist realism . Undoubtedly, the creators of Teofil Ociepka had a great influence on the artists. He believed that painting was God's mission and should present basic issues, including the problem of the fight between Good and Evil. Treating creativity as a mission to accomplish a mission significantly differentiated the founding members of the Janów groupfrom other amateur creators. Painters met once a week, on Wednesdays or Thursdays, and presented their work to colleagues. They were subjected to their harsh criticism, sometimes criticized artists on the spot destroyed their work. In 1956, Zygmunt Lis, a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, took care of the painters for 15 years . After the war, the group avoided repression thanks to the care of Izabela Stachowicz, who had the rank of captain of the Office of Security .
In 1971, Otton Klimczok, as a result of a campaign organized for many years, committed suicide. Zygmunt Lis left the job. The group's great period is over. Bolesław Skulik became its spiritual leader , and the mode of action shaped in the previous period allowed him to maintain a high level of creativity for some time.
In the 1970s and 1980s, the group was supervised by: first Barbara Kaczmarczyk (until 1985), and then Adam Plackowski , and from 1989 to 2011, Helmut Matura , who has been associated with it since the 1950s, it belonged to the excavated art team .
From November 2011, the group is led by Sabina Pasoń.
From 2000, the group's headquarters is the Municipal Culture Center "Szopienice-Giszowiec" at ul. Józef Haller 28 in Burowiec . Artists meet in the art workshop once a week, every Tuesday from 11-19.
The emergence and functioning of the Janów group is often referred to as a global phenomenon .
The activities of the Janowska Group were presented in a fictionalized form in the movie Angelus .
On the 70th anniversary of the establishment of the Janowska Group on September 9, 2016 in Katowice, a sculpture commemorating the painter and co-founder of the group Teofil Ociepka was unveiled on Plac Grunwaldzki .
Początki Grupy Janowskiej sięgają lat 30. XX wieku i założonej przez Teofila Ociepkę gminy okultystycznej, której jedną z form ekspresji było malarstwo. Po drugiej wojnie światowej twórcy zgromadzili się w założonym przez Ottona Klimczoka Zakładowym Domu Kultury Kopalni „Wieczorek”.
W początkowym okresie, do 1956 ich twórczość spotykała się z krytyką, jako odstająca od kanonu socrealizmu. Niewątpliwie duży wpływ na twórców wywarły okultystyczne poglądy Teofila Ociepki. Uważał on, że twórczość malarska jest bożym posłannictwem i powinna przedstawiać problematykę zasadniczą, w tym istotny dla niego problem walki Dobra ze Złem. Traktowanie twórczości jako posłannictwa, mającego na celu wypełnienie misji, w istotny sposób odróżniało członków-założycieli grupy janowskiej od innych twórców amatorów. Malarze spotykali się raz w tygodniu, w środy lub czwartki, i przedstawiali ocenie kolegów swoje prace. Były one poddawane ich surowej krytyce, czasami skrytykowani twórcy na miejscu niszczyli swoje prace. W 1956, na 15 lat opiekę nad malarzami objął Zygmunt Lis – absolwent krakowskiejASP. Grupa uniknęła po wojnie represji dzięki opiece Izabeli Stachowicz która miała stopień kapitana Urzędu Bezpieczeństwa[22].
W 1971 Otton Klimczok, w wyniku organizowanej na niego przez wiele lat nagonki, popełnił samobójstwo. Z pracy odszedł Zygmunt Lis. Skończył się okres świetności grupy. Jej przywódcą duchowym został Bolesław Skulik, a ukształtowany w poprzednim okresie sposób działania pozwalał utrzymać jeszcze przez pewien czas wysoki poziom twórczości.
W latach 70. i 80. XX wieku opiekunami grupy byli: najpierw Barbara Kaczmarczyk (do 1985), a następnie Adam Plackowski[23], a od 1989 do 2011 funkcję kierownika grupy pełnił Helmut Matura, związany z nią od lat 50., kiedy to należał do przykopalnianego zespołu plastycznego[24].
Od listopada 2011 grupie przewodzi Sabina Pasoń.
Od 2000 siedzibą grupy jest Miejski Dom Kultury „Szopienice-Giszowiec” przy ul. Józefa Hallera 28 w Burowcu[25]. Artyści spotykają się w pracowni plastycznej raz w tygodniu, w każdy wtorek w godzinach 11-19.

The land surrounding Marshes Creek is largely industrial except for the residential Tremley Point neighborhood at the headwaters of Marshes Creek. Severe flooding from the creek is common; rainfall is one factor, with impaired storm water runoff and insufficient conveyance capacity The area is also susceptible to tidal flooding, exacerbated by low lying elevation, sea level rise and loss of historic coastal wetlands.[28]

In 2012 Hurricane Sandy produced a 15 foot tidal surge in Tremley Point. Homes and roads were destroyed and hazardous material washed up.[29] Beginning in 2014, using HUD funding, New Jersey started buying out Tremley Point homes in flood prone areas. "Where retreat is the only option," demolished homes will be replaced by open spaces.[11] The plan is to restore 190 acres of degraded tidal salt marshes, and floodplain forest and meadow, so they might be a buffer against storm surges[30]
LINDEN - The city's first Superstorm Sandy Blue Acres property purchases were announced by state Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Martin on Thursday — the third anniversary of the historic storm.
The announcement was made at a home previously owned by Jean and Leonard Kostak that was purchased by the state for $220,000 this month, according to a DEP statement. The Kostaks had lived at the home since 1964, before the rising waters of nearby Marshes Creek, off the Rahway River, inundated their basement and first floor.
"We knew we could never go through something like that again,” Jean Kostak, 73, said in the statement. “The decision to leave was difficult, but the Blue Acres team really helped us through the process. Our caseworker was there to answer every question and made us feel very comfortable as we went through the paperwork.”
The Blue Acres’ buyouts of three homes in the city are the first of the program to be funded entirely by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. More than 40 homes have been identified in Linden for possible buyouts as a result of flooding devastation resulting from Hurricane Irene in 2011, superstorm Sandy in 2012 and prior storms.

“The Blue Acres Buyout Program continues to fulfill the Christie administration’s commitment to move residents in flood-prone communities out of harm’s way,” Martin said. “We are pleased the program has expanded to Linden, which suffered significant damages during Sandy. We look forward to making the city of Linden and other communities more resilient for future storms.
“While the decision to relocate from these homes where memories are born is often difficult, Blue Acres continues to give residents the opportunity to move to higher ground and continue on without fear of additional damages or disruption.”
Launched in May 2013, the Blue Acres Buyout Program purchases homes from willing sellers, at pre-Sandy market values, so residents in areas of repetitive and catastrophic flooding can rebuild their lives outside flood-prone areas. The structures then are demolished,and the properties are permanently preserved as open space for recreation or conservation purposes.
To date statewide, buyouts are underway in 12 municipalities in six counties. Offers have been made to 695 homeowners and 526 have accepted. Closings have been completed on 395 properties, 259 of which have seen homes demolished.
Sandy-damaged areas in Sayreville, South River and Woodbridge were among the first to take advantage of the program. Since then, purchases have extended into flood-weary areas such as Manville, East Brunswick and Old Bridge. The program is now underway in Rahway.

Most of the previous buyouts were funded through the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, which approved more than $100 million for the Blue Acres Buyout Program, and which has been processed through the New Jersey Office of Emergency Management. Additional funding came from the U.S. Department of Agriculture — Natural Resources Conservation Service and the state Green Acres Program.
Linden and Old Bridge are the first communities in the state where Blue Acres home purchases are being funded through a second tranche of Community Development Block Grant — Disaster Recovery funding provided by HUD, the statement said.
“HUD commends New Jersey for its thoughtful approach to recovery from Sandy," Holly Leicht, HUD regional administrator for New Jersey and New York, said. “The state has been strategic in determining where it makes sense to rebuild more resiliently, and where retreat is the only option to ensure that lives and homes are not lost in the future.
"It is not easy for families such as the Kostaks to make the decision to relocate, but after the devastation of Sandy, we have no choice but to acknowledge that climate change is a reality, and programs like New Jersey's Blue Acre Buyout must be part of our nation's collective preparation.”
“New Jersey was devastated by superstorm Sandy,” Linden Mayor Derek Armstead said. “Although the New Jersey Shore area got most of the news coverage, the city of Linden was not spared. We also felt the impact as our Tremley Point and Emma Place neighborhoods fell victim to the devastation of the storm.
“We are grateful that our city is one of the municipalities given the opportunity to work with the Blue Acres program. This program is giving these families the chance to move forward and rebuild their future.”
The DEP has created a special buyout implementation team for Blue Acres to work closely with sellers and process their applications as quickly as possible. Case workers work with the homeowners to guide them through the process.
In response to the buyouts, Jeff Tittel, director of the New Jersey Sierra Club, said in a statement, “Today the DEP is going to buy out flood prone properties in Linden, where the biggest environmental sellout in state history took place.
"That means the next time there is a flood, more toxic pollution will wash into people’s homes," he added. "NJDEP has allowed Exxon to get away with years of industrial pollution at the Bayway refinery estimating over $9 billion. Under the settlement, the NJDEP is not requiring the restoration of over 1,800 acres of wetlands near the refinery that would actually protect Linden from coastal flooding."
Tittle said because of the failure of the state to address climate change the area will see even more flooding impacts.
"We are glad that flood prone properties are being bought out in Linden, but we need to be doing much more," he said. "The administration has weakened protections in flood prone areas, not addressed climate change or sea level rise, while encouraging development in places that will only be washed away in the next storm."
Homeowners interested in selling their homes or who have questions about the buyout program may call the Blue Acres Buyout Program at 609-984-0500.

The brook has a watershed of about 135 acres, flowing east through Woodbridge for 1.8 miles, draining into the Woodbridge River which flows south.[33] Woodbridge is bordered on east by the Arthur Kill, into which the Woodbridge River flows. There is a history of tidal flooding along this river and its tributary Heards Brook. The most extreme flooding occurred during Superstorm Sandy, with a high water mark in the Woodbridge River of 12 feet. Where the brook enters the river there is only a six foot elevation above sea level. Heards Brook has been described, also, as having a "high flow, flashy nature;" in addition to tidal flooding, fluvial flooding is also common. The land is relatively impervious, and flooding is exacerbated steep slopes, urban cover and outflow block. The culvert size at the Rt.35 crossing is 12x6 feet, backflow from this location continues to cause upstream flooding. Flooding will occur as far west as South Park Drive during a two year storm. Prolonged coastal storms (nor'easters), which combine tidal and fluvial flooding, along with flow constrictions, cause an increase in the duration of flooding of Heard Brook, which may last for days before water levels subside.[34] After Sandy, Woodbridge removed multiple residential properties in the flood hazard areas adjoining Heards Brook.[35] This area became a part of a restoration for the marshes in the area.

In the center of Woodbridge Heards Brook passes through Heards Brook Park. Described as "the most preferred tourist attraction in Woodbridge,"it has a wooded area, picnic tables, tree-lined stone pathways, basketball courts and "stunning views of the brook."[36][37][38]
Around 1860 Woodbridge became a hub of the brick making industry. Large scale excavation was started in the town for clay; Woodbridge clay was used for making fire bricks, able to withstand heat of greater than 2000°.[39] Heards Brook was used as a marker delineating the location of various pits.[40]

In 2014 Kern was fired from the El Mirage Police Department for lying to a superior about a lost tablet. His name was added to a "Brady List" of dishonest officers. As a legislator, he tried pass a law that would remove his name from the List, without informing the sponsor that it would apply to him. After it was disclosed that the bill was for Kern's benefit, House Bill 2671 was amended to eliminate the provisions that would have helped him.[58]

On February 13, 1994, controversy ensued when John Cheney, Temple University basketball coach, threatened to kill Calipari at a post-game news conference, while Calipari was speaking at a podium. Chaney entered the conference mid-speech, called him an "Italian Son-of-a-Bitch" accusing Calipari of manipulating the referees. When Calipari attempted to respond to the accusations, Chaney yelled, "Shut up goddammit!", and proceeded to charge the stage, before being stopped by security. While being held back, Chaney shouted, "When I see you, I'm gonna kick your ass!" As security restrained Chaney, he repeatedly yelled, "I'll kill you!" and angrily admitted telling his players to "knock your fucking kids in the mouth." Chaney received a one-game suspension for the incident.[64][65]Cheney apologized a few days later and they eventually reconciled.[66]

Laurence Traiger (born October 16, 1956) is an American composer and musicologist. Originally from Bellmore, Long Island, New York, he has studied and worked in Europe since 1976.[73]
His extensive list of works include early music, Jewish music, Appalachian music, new music, choral music, orchestral music, accordion,[75]Irish music, chamber music and film music, as well as compositions for historical instruments and educational works. He has found returning to his roots touching and therapeutic,[76] incorporating both Klezmer[77] and rural Appalachian music[78] into his body of work. (One his earliest published works was a Yiddishsing-along.[79]) He has long been engaged with Jewish mysticism, and many of his works reflect this interest.[80][81] For didactic works he strives to provide something that the student could use as a vehicle for expression, attempting to capture the teenage disposition in a moody and thoughtful, yet energetic and optimistic tone;[82] he has taught at children's workshops on components of music.[83] He has been
invited to take part in international "new music" festivals such as the Steirischen Herbst,[84] Klangspektrum,
Villach and ADE-vantgarde, München. Traiger has received numerous commissions from renowned ensembles and radio choirs.[85] Traiger has had many collaborations with the Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk Choir,[86] including an invitation to compose a piece for Schumann-2010,[87] honoring the 200th anniversary of Robert Schumann's birth.[88] His work has appeared on MDR's CD "Das Hohelied Salomos." [89] He has dedicated works to various groups and artists, including Meistersextet Leipzig MDT Radio Choir[90] and award-winning classical guitarist, and fellow Mozarteum teacher, Maria Isabel Siewers.[91] Soprano Priska Eser-Steit lists Traiger as one of the few composers of "modern music" in her repertoire.[92] His work has been premiered by the Tyrolean Chamber Orchestra,[93]Orpheus Choir of Munich,:[94] nota bene:[95] and Ensemble Cantissimo, among others.[96]
His favorite period is Baroque, describing it as "when rhetoric in music as well as in speaking was prized, and musicians 'spoke' with their instruments." He has been described by Howard Arman[97][98] as one of the few composers of music for Baroque instruments today.[73] His motets have been performed by Cantissimo Ensemble and Cantemus Lugano.[99] He has won numerous composition awards, including from ORF (broadcaster) and the publisher Barenreiter.[100]
Laurence Traiger teaches at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München and the Innsbruck branch of Mozarteum University of Salzburg.[101] His areas of interest include music history, theory for music teachers, composition and arrangement, and vocal polyphony of the 16th Century.[102] At the 2013 Internationale Sommerakademie Mozaertum, Traiger was featured in a Komponistenporträt (the presentation of a living composer in talk and music).[103]
In 1986, Traiger "turned away from the 'avant-garde' and tried to find my own voice in tonality."[73] With an emphasis on clarity, sensuality, and excitement, using
tonal sonorities, his work has been described as melodically oriented and rhythmically varied, rich in contrast and atmosphere, and "fresh and alive."[96] His goal is to make his work directly accessible to widely ranging ensembles and audiences.[104]
With Richard Voss,[105] Traiger has written two tune book collections of Irish folk music, arranging the songs for piano solo in both. "Roving Through Ireland" is a collection of 38 traditional Irish ballads.[106] "O'Carolan's Tunes for Piano"[107] is a collection of 32 songs, originally for harp, by Turlough O'Carolan, 17th Century Irish harper. Voss and Traiger have three other tune book collaborations, including "Auf Den Spuren Der Inkas".[108]
"According to Juliet" is a monodrama (in four scenes for soprano, flute and accordion) written by Traiger. Using excerpts from the original text of Arthur Brooke's Romeus and Juliet, written shortly before Shakespeare's birth, Traiger tells the beautiful but hopeless love story from Juliet's perspective.[109][110] The work was premiered with great success in the 2007 Black Forest Music Festival in Badenweiler; the Munich premiere of the libretto was 16 March 2010.[111] Reviewer Bianca Flier reported that the interplay of the voice and instruments
grips the audience until the dramatic
finale, and that "the composer has created a moving and compelling, almost unearthly work."[112]
"Aliyat" is a work for mezzo-soprano and orchestra. Based on mystical teachings of Judaism, the composition describes the journey of a disembodied soul through the various stages of life after death, as one imagines oneself in the mystical tradition of Kabbalah.[113]
Traiger considers his cantata, "Be Still," written for the 9/11/2001 tragedy, to be one of his definitive works.[114] Commissioned by the Orpheus Choir of Munich,[115]Joel Frederiksen was the narrator/bass soloist for the 30 June 2002 premiere,[116] at the Europäischen Wochen, Passau.[117] The OCM has long collaborated with Traiger, and premiered many of his works.[115] Traiger and Frederiksen have other collaborations, most recently their work honoring Baroque architect Domenico Martinelli. For "Project Martinelli,"[118] Traiger was commissioned, and wrote a Baroque piece for arciliuto, theorbo and soprano based upon text by Frank Lloyd Wright.[119]
"Prayer Without Words"[120] has been, very likely, his most widely played piece, with three concerts at the Scharzwald
Festival in 2006,[121] as well as at the International Festival of Sacred Choral Music in Rottenburg am Neckar 2008,[122] the Munich-based festival "Cantional 2009" and various church concerts throughout Germany.[114]
"Nach Im Schlaf" was written in 1998 for the Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk Chor. A 12-part composition, it is based on text from the Song of Songs. It was performed by the Norddeutscher Rundfunk Chor at the opening of its 2012-2013 season.[123] His 2015 piece for the choir, "Till This Night," uses the famous monologue from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" in which Romeo says of his mistress: "Swear it, my eye; before this happy night not you know what beauty is."[124]
In 2014, Traiger wrote the music for the award-winning[125] documentary movie "Fukushima Nichts Ist Wie Es War."[126]
On the 2018 occasion of Nelson Mandela's 100th birthday, Traiger created RheinMain Ode to Mandela, a work for speakers, two choirs, instrumental ensemble, percussion and organ commissioned by the Vocal Art Frankfurt Festival.[127]

8888Mao had contempt for ancient Chinese customs. In the 1980's the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began to use traditional themes and prominent classical vocabulary, such as "harmonius society" (Chinese: 和谐社会; pinyin: héxié shèhuì) as a socioeconomic vision in China and to deflect the problems of social inequality. Delury traces the history and usage of the Chinese words and is critical of the CCP, calling their usage "the psuedo-Confucianism of the CCP."[146]

Before entering the film world, Turtletub spent almost a year meeting people in the film industry. He used the instincts he developed as a reporter to ask questions and learn the craft of filmmaking.[147]
"Before I was even in the financial world, I was a journalist for many years," he says. "So I've always loved great writing, and I've always loved film. When I came into the film world about 17 years ago, what I started to do was that I pulled upon my journalistic instincts, and I just starting meeting people and asking questions.

"I'd say, 'What is it that a foreign agent does?' 'What is it that a literary agent does?' 'How does distribution happen and how do you do development?'

They have produced over 20 movies, and, are best known for lower budgetcomedy-dramafilms, such as Little Miss Sunshine and Safety Not Guaranteed. Safety Not Guaranteed has been called "one of the most influential films of the last decade." Made in 2012 with a first-time director and writer and costing less less than a million dollars, this character driven indie caught the eye of Netflix, foreshadowing the role of streaming in film creation and distribution.[149]
That’s right: A dramedy about Mark Duplass trying to travel through time that you probably watched at 1 a.m. on Netflix stands at the forefront of three major trends in contemporary filmmaking. While Safety Not Guaranteed received generally positive reviews when it came out, and even won a screenwriting award at Sundance, its influence has less to do with its content and more to do with its creation and distribution

The Times felt this was critical to the story, emphazing to the readers that the migrants are real people. According to the New York Times reporter discussing the article: "What makes this story stand out is the visual focus on the migrants, some who risked their lives to stand in line at that bus station." She also conducted on-the-fly interviews with migrants in 105-degree heat abut the next phase in their lives. Panich-Linsman has worked at the border extensively since moving to Texas in 20154.[154]

Alma mater
Boston College, B.A. University of Illinois, Masters Cornell, Ph.D.
Mettler received a B.A. from Boston College in 1984, a Masters from the University of Illinois (Urbana) in political science, 1989, and, a Ph.D. from Cornell University in government, 1994. From 1994-2007 she taught at Syracuse University, rising from assistant professor to full professor at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, Department of Political Science. Since July, 2007, she has been the Clinton Rossiter Professor of American Institutions, Department of Government, Cornell University.[165]
Mettler co-edited the Oxford Handbook of American Political Development (2016). Mettler subscribes to the subfield of political science called American political development(APD), which recognizes the need for an analytic approach to researching and understanding U.S. politics. She feels there is a distinctiveness of the APD approach,[166] which studies "the causes, nature, and consequences of key transformative periods and central patterns in American political history,"[167] as well the "durable shifts in governing authority" in the United States.[168] Mettler has been described as a prominent Americanist scholar in this relatively new field, which blurs the the border between political science and political history.[169] Her particular interests include inequality, democratization and civic engagement.[170] She has written five more books, most prominently two winners of the Kammerer Award[171] of the American Political Science Association for the best book on U.S. national policy: Dividing Citizens: Gender and Federalism in New Deal Public Policy, 1998 (Cornell University Press); and, Soldiers to Citizens: The G.I. Bill and the Making of ther Greatest Generation, 2005 (Oxford University Press). Other books include The Government-Citizen Disconnect (Russell Sage 2018); Degrees of Inequality: How The Politics of Higher Education Sabotaged the American Dream (Basic Books 2014); and, The Submerged State: How Invisible Government Programs Undermine American Democracy (University of Chicago 2011). Mettler has written for a broader audience for publications including New York Times, L.A. Times, Foreign Affairs, and Salon.

He was raised as a Christian; three of his gradparents had converted from Judaism as adults.[9]
His wife, Hilde, had been his pupil; they had two children before their marriage, the first conceived after the first piano lesson, when Hilde was eighteen years old and Paul was forty-seven. Because Hilde was not Jewish, Paul was open to charges of “racial defilement;” in 1938 he fled to New York. When his wife and children arrived in the United States, in 1941, he set them up in a house on Long Island, which he visited on weekends from his apartment on Riverside Drive.[10] Wittgenstein became an American citizen in 1946, and spent the rest of his life in the United States, where he did much teaching as well as playing. He died in New York City in 1961 and is buried in Pinegrove Cemetery, South Sterling, Pike County, Pennsylvania.[11]
According to a family tree prepared in Jerusalem after World War II, Wittgenstein's paternal great-grandfather was Moses Meier, a Jewish land agent who lived with his wife, Brendel Simon, in Bad Laasphe in the Principality of Wittgenstein, Westphalia.[13] In July 1808, Napoleon issued a decree that everyone, including Jews, must adopt an inheritable family surname, and so Meier's son, also Moses, took the name of his employers, the Sayn-Wittgensteins, and became Moses Meier Wittgenstein.[14] His son, Hermann Christian Wittgenstein—who took the middle name "Christian" to distance himself from his Jewish background—married Fanny Figdor, also Jewish, who converted to Protestantism just before they married, and the couple founded a successful business trading in wool in Leipzig.[15] Ludwig's grandmother Fanny was a first cousin of the famous violinist Joseph Joachim.[16]
They had 11 children—among them Wittgenstein's father. Karl Otto Clemens Wittgenstein (1847–1913) became an industrial tycoon, and by the late 1880s was one of the richest men in Europe, with an effective monopoly on Austria's steel cartel.[12][17] Thanks to Karl, the Wittgensteins became the second wealthiest family in Austria-Hungary, only behind the Rothschilds.[17] As a result of his decision in 1898 to invest substantially in the Netherlands and in Switzerland as well as overseas, particularly in the US, the family was to an extent shielded from the hyperinflation that hit Austria in 1922.[18] However, their wealth diminished due to post-1918 hyperinflation and subsequently during the Great Depression, although even as late as 1938 they owned 13 mansions in Vienna alone.[19]
Wittgenstein's mother was Leopoldine Maria Josefa Kalmus, known among friends as Poldi. Her father was a BohemianJew and her mother was Austrian-SloveneCatholic—she was Wittgenstein's only non-Jewish grandparent.[20][21][22][23]

Turtletaub was motivated to direct Puzzle for a personal reason.
It’s a story about a woman who’s a mother and a wife living in suburban Connecticut, doting on her husband and her sons. And I knew that woman – it was my mother.

The Money Store LogoZiggurat Building, West Sacramento, former home of The Money Store
Turtletaub[56] worked for 20 years at The Money Store, a company founded by his father, Alan Turtltaub, in 1967.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).[57] Turtletaub resigns]</ref>. The Money Store was pioneer in the subprime lending industry, making home equity secured second mortgage and other loans to people with blemished credit. Turtletaub succeeded his father as CEO and president, and, took the company public in 1991, then sold it in June, 1998 to First Union Bank for $2.1 billion.[58] During his tenure the company's growth was phenomenal. At the time of the sale, there were 172 branches, and it was the nation's leading home equity lender and S.B.A. lender. Turtletaub had built a 400,000 square foot ziggurat[59] shaped headquarter in West Sacramento, triggering a rebirth in the area.[60] The need for a "deep pocket" had led to the merger; bond rating agencies had downgraded The Money Store in 1997 to junk bond status. Within a day of the merger it had a solid rating. "We will now benefit from the rating of the parent company. We are going to be in the driver's seat," Turtletaub said. [61] The Money Store did not prosper after the merger. At the time of the severe liquidity crisis of August, 1998, the subprime industry imploded. Turtletaub resigned as President and CEO May, 1999. By October, 1999, the deal was called a "disaster" for First Union

With a profit of $700 million from selling The Money Store, Turtletaub decided to go into the film business.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). He describes himself as a child of the counter-culture and only wants to make films that have redemption, something more than entertainment. He wants to touch and change people and use his money, through film, to do good.[66] He looks for movies that have a powerful voice, illuminate the human condition and emotional connections. He prefers script writers and directors who are doing their first films, as he is looking for a fresh perspective.[67] In 2000 he teamed with producer David Friendly, forming Deep River Productions. The original plan was to use Turtletaub's resources to buy material to develop, then taking the properties to the studios for production; they found this model ineffective and abandoned it early. Several movies were produced by Deep River, most notably Little Miss Sunshine, a 2006 Academy Award nominee for best picture. Turtletaub[68] originally bought the script for $250,000, repurchased it two years later for $400,000 and then paid the $8 million costs of production.[69] The film was a box-office success and critically acclaimed. Friendly and Turtletaub split after a six year run.[70] Turtletaub joined with Peter Saraf in 2004 to form Big Beach Films. They have produced over 20 films, most notably Loving and (together with Deep River) "Little Miss Sunshine." In 2015 they started a TV division focusing on micro-budget features and digital content.[71] Turtletaub has dabbled in directing with mixed success.Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page).

He has called his approach to judging pragmatic. "I pay very little attention to legal rules, statutes, constitutional provisions... A case is just a dispute. The first thing you do is ask yourself — forget about the law — what is a sensible resolution of this dispute? The next thing...is to see if a recent Supreme Court precedent or some other legal obstacle stood in the way of ruling in favor of that sensible resolution. And the answer is that’s actually rarely the case. When you have a Supreme Court case or something similar, they’re often extremely easy to get around."[4]
In June 2016, Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, set up a meeting with Donald Trump, Jr. to discuss the issue of adoptions of Russian children. After passing of the Magnitsky Act, Russia had blocked these in retribution for the Act. Emails came to light in 2017 which indicated that Trump expected the meeting to be about Russian government help in getting damaging information against Hillary Clinton, just months before the election. The emergence of the emails set off a major controversy.[5]
Other critics say the SPLC picks its causes with its bottom line in mind.“For groups that do not threaten violence, the use of SPLC ‘hate group’ or ‘extremist’ designations frequently are exploited as an excuse to silence speech and speakers,” Jacobson adds. “It taints not only the group or person, but others who associate with them.[6]
Ken Silverstein, a liberal journalist and another critic of the group who authored a scathing investigation of its marketing and financial practices for Harper’s in 2000, attributes the growing scope of the SPLC’s censures to a financial imperative to wade into hot-button issues that will rile donors. “The organization has always tried to find ways to milk money out of the public by finding whatever threat they can most credibly promote,” he sayshttp://www.americanpatrol.com/SPLC/ChurchofMorrisDees001100.html

Gunter Bresnik is an Austrian coaching legend.[9]
Ion Tiriac: "The only on to understand tennis."
Gunter Bresnik is the responsible of Dominic Thiem's 2016 schedule and 2017 too. The Austrian player played 118 matches last year, and this year until March he will play in total nine tournaments.
This month he had a crazy schedule as he played in Sofia, Rotterdam, Rio de Janeiro and this week he will be in Acapulco, switching surfaces like nothing. Interviewed by Globo Esporte,Bresnik admitted: 'The schedule was really ridiculous.
It's my fault. Sometimes there are private reasons that make you take these decisions. For example, Paul McNamee is the Sofia tournament director, Krajicek in Rotterdam and he always played there. He has some good memories of Rio last year and so he wanted to play.
"It's funny, because it's those who play little who get tired quickly."[10]
"When you train elite players, you go to great tournaments, hotels ... You always get great food. If you complained about such a thing, I think you need a psychiatrist. "[11]
"He [Thiem] has no obligation to play Davis Cup. I cannot hear this patriot shit."[12]
Born in Austria to two physicans, he did not take up tennis until age 16; he studied medicine at the University of Vienna, but dropped out before finishing.
In his coach's career since the mid-1980s, Bresnik has coached 27 top 100 tennis pros,[19] including Boris Becker (who descibed him as disciplined, hard-working, and humble),
Henri Leconte, Patrick McEnroe, Patrick Baur, Ernests Gulbis and Stefan Koubek.[20]Dominic Thiem, a two-time semifinalist at the French Open,[21] has been coached by Gunter Bresnik since age nine, but he has known Bresnik since he was three — after Thiem’s father, Wolfgang, came to work as a coach at Bresnik’s international tennis academy in Vienna in 1997.[22]

From 1992 to 1993 and 1998 to 2004, Bresnik was the captain of the Austrian Davis Cup team . In 1998 and 1999, the Austrian was also the Sports director of the Austrian Tennis Association. On 21 October 2016 Bresnik's first book, entitled "The Dominic Thiem Method", was published. In this he portrays both Dominic Thiem's career path from the eight-year-old boy to the world-class athlete and his own career aa a tennis adminstrator.[23]
Recently, the Dawat-e-Hadiyah, an organization overseeing smaller Shiite Muslim sects, hired two well-known lawyers, Alan Dershowitz and Mayer Morganroth, to help the defense, The Associated Press reported.
In Mr. Rank’s case, several friends said, he had been directed to present the White House’s rationale for withdrawing from the Paris climate accord to the Chinese government. He told colleagues at a town-hall meeting at the embassy that he could not defend the policy.
Friends said Mr. Rank, who became chargé d’affaires in Beijing in January, was deeply frustrated by the general direction of American policy toward China, but particularly about climate change. He was scheduled to serve until the arrival of Terry Branstad, the former governor of Iowa, who was confirmed as Mr. Trump’s ambassador to China in May.
The climate agreement struck between the Obama administration and the Chinese government in 2014 laid the groundwork for the global agreement signed in Paris. China’s official media has been scorching in its criticism of Mr. Trump’s decision to withdraw from it.
Mr. Rank did not reply to an email seeking comment. Friends said he was on his way back to the United States.
A State Department official, speaking on background because he was not authorized to discuss personnel matters, characterized Mr. Rank’s resignation as a “personal decision.” He declined to say whether it involved climate policy.
A 27-year veteran of the Foreign Service and fluent speaker of Mandarin, Mr. Rank also served in Taiwan, Greece and Mauritius. In recent years, he worked extensively on Afghanistan, serving as the Afghan desk director in Washington and political counselor in Kabul.

In a statement the association made it very clear that it “does not support the production of donkey milk as a venture that involves the intensive exploration of livestock.”
In 2015 researchers at the University of Vila Real concluded the Miranda donkey was in danger of extinction over the next 50 years. The major factor was the abandonment of breeding the animal; out of an aging population of 600 animals only 1/2 of the females had foals, and some had only one.[31] Also noted was a high mortality rate among young foals.[32]

The first sentence discussed Cossack involement on the rebel/Russian side. This has been noted and reported for months by almost every major news agency and newspaper. It was taken out under the pretense of "Recentism" and "Wiki is not a newspaper". Well, the subject is not recent and has been discussed by multiple reliable sources; its notability meets all notability criteria, and should be retained. In any case, there is NO prohibition on using recent news articles
While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion. For example, routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia. information on recent developments is sometimes appropriate
Recentism is writing or editing without a long-term, historical view, thereby inflating the importance of a topic that has received recent public attention and possibly resulting in:
Articles overburdened with documenting controversy as it happens.
Articles created on flimsy, transient merits.
The muddling or diffusion of the timeless facets of a subject, previously recognized by Wikipedia consensus.
Recentism is a symptom of Wikipedia's dynamic and immediate editorial process, and has positive aspects as well—up-to-date information on breaking news events, vetted and counter-vetted by enthusiastic volunteer editors, is something that no other encyclopedia can offer.

Horne was a long-time critic of the Colorado City police force, known as "the marshall's office." He felt that the marshalls were an arm of the FDLS church instead of the law. In 2012 Horne allocated $420,000 to the Mohave County Sheriff's Office to patrol Colorado City.[33] In 2014 he asked for a federal judge to disband the office, after legislation he supported to do so failed to pass.[34][35]
References #1 and #2 are not reliable sources. Per Wikipedia guidelines: "Reliable sources must be strong enough to support the claim. A lightweight source may sometimes be acceptable for a lightweight claim, but never for an extraordinary claim.
Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts, or with no editorial oversight. Such sources include websites and publications expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature..." The claims they make are not "lightweight."

There was a secondary source used in the discussion of the Colorado City lawsuit, definitely discussing the AZ A.G.'s involvement in the case. When challenged, I listed in the Talk Page primary source material. I feel this meets Wiki criteria, by using this material only to augment the secondary material. Hence, I agree with the second opinion above.Mwinog2777 (talk) 23:30, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

PHOENIX (Wednesday January 20, 2011) - Attorney General Tom Horne today announced his office has filed an appearance in U.S. v. Arizona, the Obama administration’s federal court challenge to S.B. 1070. Attorney General Horne is appearing as counsel for the State of Arizona and will work with Governor Brewer’s counsel, who have been defending the Governor and the State in numerous federal court lawsuits challenging S.B. 1070.
“I promised the people of Arizona that as the top law enforcement officer of this state, I would vigorously defend state law,” Horne said. “Today I am fulfilling my vow to defend S.B. 1070 in the courts against the attack by the Obama administration challenge to the law.”
As A.G. in a politically divisive state, the A.G. comments about certain high profile situations do carry some importance;
On November 24, 2014, in anticipation of Ferguson. Missouri grand jury verdict, \Horne and civil-rights leaders gathered Monday afternoon to urge for peaceful demonstrations in anticipation of the Ferguson Grand Jury verdict.
"Violence or disorder would subtract from any message people want to send," Horne told reporters.
Horne filed a 2013 lawsuit that compelled the Maricopa County Community College District to end its policy of in-state tuition for "Dreamers" (undocumented immigrants with federal work permits, who came to the U.S. as children). When accused of being anti-immigrant, Horne responded that he was one himself, being born in Canada. Horne met with students and explained that he was "obligated to enforce the law."[47] Activists held protests and many were arresred.[48]
Horne attacked the 2014 Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) policy of sending illegal immigrants from Texas to Arizona.
"They've done some pretty bizarre things," Horne said. "They caught people crossing the border in Texas and they shipped them to Arizona and left them in a bus station."[49] Arizona law prohibited Horne from suing the federal government[50]
In 2013 Horne enforced the state preemption of regulation of firearms; he found that Tucson's city gun laws were unenforceable.[51] Also in 2013, he proposed that legislation that would allow teachers to carry guns in public schools.[52]
The Miranda donkey is a docile animal with a dark brown coat that sheds as it grow older. It is tall, has long ears and has white markings around its eyes.[53]
Reltionships With Humans
For centuries the Miranda donkeys were a mainstay of agriculture in the Tierra de Miranda region of Portugal, helping farmers plow and carrying goods. Gradually replaced by mechaniztion, they are no longer profitable as work animals. The majority are now cared for by older farmer who are then eligible for E.U. subsidies. Even so, they are not profitable,[54] and frquently end up being sold by farmers for slaughter. Since 2003, they have been listed as an endangered species. The number of animals has stabilized at around 800, as conservationists have taken an active role in preserving the breed.[55][56] Long a staple of traditional rural life in Portugal, they were previouly looked at as little more than agricultural tools. With the efforts of the conservationists, this view is changing, and now they are felt to symbolically represent a fading rural cultural tradition.[57]
In Ryan v. Gonzales, the Court agreed with Horne that limits should be placed on extensive delays in death cases.
On February 19, 2012 Horne announced Arizona had reached agreement to join a $25 billion agreement with the nation's five largest mortgage servicers over abuser and fraud with Arizonas's share being $1.6 billion, with $1.3 billion for underwater homeowners. The settlement was the result of an initiative that included attorney generals.
[58] A second 2012 case, Arizona v. Inter Tribal, was a voting rights case The case was decided against Horne and Arizona, by a 7-2 vote.[59]

"We are sending an armada," Trump announced on April 12th, 2017.[1] The carrier, however, with three other warships in a strike force, was 3500 miles away, doing joint exercises with the Australian navy in the Indian Ocean.[2]
By dropping charges against major arms targets, the administration reportedly infuriated Justice Department officials — and has been accused of undermining its own counterproliferation task forces.[3]
Born in 1943 in the Bronx, Joel Arthur Rosenthal is the only son of a postman and a teacher in biology. He spent a semester at City College of New York studying linguistics; he speaks French, Italian, English and Yiddish. He then transferred to Harvard, where studied art history and philosophy at Harvard University, graduating in 1966.[4] He then moved to Paris where he worked as a screenwriter, then as a needle-stitcher, opening a small shop. His work on unusual colored cotton attracts the attention of different stylists.
After a short stint as a salesman in the New York store of Bulgari, he returned to Paris in 1977 and began designing pieces there from affordable materials, such as coral and stone. Quick success led the self-taught Rosenthal open a non-descript salon at 7 Place Vendôme, where he still hosts his loyal clients.[5] His company, JAR, has no shop window or sign on the street. The entry is made on the sponsorship of a known customer and for persons whose name excludes any ambiguity. Each piece is unique, created for a specific client. He takes inspiration from the fauna and flora for his creations, mixing references from the past with current techniques of jewelry. In 2002, the first public exhibition devoted to JAR was held in London (the 1987 exhibition was a private exhibition). The 400 pieces presented, mostly lent by their owner, were arranged in full black, the visitors having to use a flashlight to observe them. On this occasion JAR published the only book on his works, JAR Paris, catalog of 720 pages printed in a limited number of copies.[6] His only other public exhibition was at the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2013. This was the first time an exhibition was held for a living "artist of gems."[7]
What Rosenthal has been doing since 1977 is setting gems in pavé arrangements as fine as needlepoint stitches. He also often amplifies the stones’ colors by mounting them in a blackened alloy.[8]
Platinum Partners was formed in 2003 in New York City with NM as chief investment officer. It portrayed itself as having a knack for illiquid investments and had $1.7 billion in assets in its most recent filing. Institutional investors largely avoided Platinum Partners. Most of the investors were ultra-high-net individuals with a connection to the New York City Jewish community, many of whom had previously invested with Madoff.[9]
They were sent into a remote and violence-torn area on motorbike taxis with only an interpreter at their side and without much training, safety equipment or even health insurance, an "astoundingly irresponsible approach by the United Nations to an obviously dangerous and hugely important task."[10] Retrieved May 27, 2017</ref>
