When Cambridge United scored their third goal of the afternoon to put the outcome beyond any doubt, it was the cue for a

Cheltenham Town supporter to take down his giant flag in a huff.

The flag had been covering a large area of the empty section of the Habbin Stand, but the fan had clearly seen enough and wanted it packed away so he could begin his journey home.

He appeared to be having a debate with a couple of stewards as he did so, but what could not be questioned was how deserving the U's were of the three points.

And it was the player who got that third goal – his second of the match and 50th for the club – who epitomised everything good about the hosts' performance.

Luke Berry must have covered every single blade of grass as he produced a superb all-round performance, perfectly showing off all of his talents at the Cambs Glass Stadium.

Right from the first whistle he was on the front foot and putting the Cheltenham defence under pressure, with his energy and desire being replicated by all of his team-mates as the visitors were given no time whatsoever to get settled.

To go with that hunger was quality on the ball, with the midfielder linking up nicely with his colleagues and ensuring plenty of questions were asked of the Robins' back three.

Well Berry delivered that as well, registering a couple of goals as he racked up his half-century in an amber and black shirt.

His first goal, which came 11 minutes into the second half and doubled the U's lead, was a free header from after he had made a good run into the box to get on the end of Greg Taylor's cross.

It came at a crucial time as the Robins, under the guidance of former United boss Gary Johnson, were just threatening to get back into the contest having started the second half brightly.

And his second effort came from an angled drive on the edge of the area after being found by a nice pass from Max Clark.

Luke Berry delighted to reach Cambridge United goal milestone

Berry was still giving absolutely everything in added time as he chased down a seemingly lost cause and forced a mistake from Cheltenham captain Aaron Downes.

That was his last involvement as United manager Shaun Derry handed him the opportunity to soak up a standing ovation from the crowd by substituting him.

It really was as close to the perfect midfield performance as you could get, so no wonder Derry was singing his praises at the final whistle.

"There are moments in the game where you've got to take advantage and I think getting that second goal was a key moment for us," said Derry.

"They'd just started putting us under some pressure and we asked the lads to be ruthless.

"It was a fantastic header from Luke Berry and he's not just a big player for us but he's also a big player for the league.

"He scores goals every single season and we're delighted that he's playing for Cambridge United.

He's a lovely kid as well, a top, top man, so full credit to him.

"He gives us energy, he gives us quality, he gives us a goal threat.

He's a reliable character as well, so he ticks a lot of boxes."

While Berry's display and milestone-reaching moment earned him the lion's share of the plaudits, it would be wrong to think the victory was all down to one man.

Everywhere you looked there were players putting in good shifts, whether it be at the back keeping the strikers quiet, in midfield winning tackles and keeping hold of possession or in the final third creating chances.

Two players who could easily have gone under the radar but deserved huge credit were Brad Halliday and Taylor.

Both full-backs got up and down the flanks with real gusto, doing their defensive duties well and also adding another dimension to the team's attacking play.

And with Clark producing the goods with a really combative display and Uche Ikpeazu, who started the ball rolling with his seventh-minute deflected strike, giving the defence nightmares, Cheltenham never really stood a chance.

They did muster a consolation goal five minutes from time when Billy Waters popped up to convert Easah Suliman's cross from close range, but that proved to be the only negative for United and it was a small one at that.

It was the U's first home league win since October 1 following some excellent away showings.

With Berry and the rest of the players in this kind of form, there should be plenty more to come.

Club career.:Hull City.:Loan Spell at Cambridge United.

On 25 March 2016, Clark signed for League Two club Cambridge United on loan until the end of 2015–16. He made his debut later that day as a 55th-minute substitute for Luke Berry in a 3–0 defeat away to Bristol Rovers. In a follow up match against Oxford United on 28 March 2010, he started and played 75 minutes before coming off as a substitute, in a 0–0 draw. Clark finished his loan spell with nine appearances before returning to his parent club at the end of the season.
 On 30 June 2016, Clark re-signed for Cambridge United on a six-month loan. His first appearance after rejoining the club came on the opening day of 2016–17 season in a 1–1 draw at home to Barnet. Since joining the club for the second time, he continued to regain his first team place throughout the season.

GMB originates from a series of mergers, beginning when the National Amalgamated Union of Labour (NAUL), National Union of General Workers (NUGW) and the Municipal Employees Association in 1924 joined into a new union, named the National Union of General and Municipal Workers (NUGMW).   Although the new union was one of the largest in the country it grew relatively slowly over the following decades, this changed in the 1970s when David Basnett created new sections for staff, and hotel and catering workers, and changed the union's name to the General and Municipal Workers' Union (GMWU) in 1974.
 In 1992, the GMB for the first time allocated all of its members to one of eight industrial sections: clothing and textiles; commercial services; construction, furniture and allied; energy and utilities; engineering; food and leisure; process; and public services.

Pulteney was the heir to the Pulteney estate, lying between St. James's Street and the Green Park, held from the Crown on a 99-year lease, bringing in £10,000 a year.1

His grandfather, Sir William Pulteney, M.P. for Westminster, had vested the estate in trustees, one of whom was Henry Guy, M.P. for Hedon, secretary to the Treasury till he was sent to the Tower for taking a bribe.

Guy died in 1710, leaving his fortune to Pulteney, who soon afterwards acquired another by his marriage to the daughter of a wealthy glass manufacturer.

Returned for Hedon on Guy's interest at the first opportunity after coming of age, Pulteney began his career as one of Walpole's chief political associates, obtaining office with him at George I's accession, and resigning to accompany him into opposition in 1717.

The first sign of a rift between them appeared in 1718, when Pulteney did not conceal his disapproval of Walpole's conduct in joining the Tories to force a reduction of the army.2 By 1720 the rift was so wide that Walpole not only excluded Pulteney from the negotiations for a reunion of the Whig party, but did not procure him a place in the reconstituted Government, merely offering him a peerage, which was indignantly refused.

Pulteney showed his resentment by accusing Walpole in the Commons of changing his mind according as he was in or out of office (14 July 1721) and of allowing his attitude to financial questions to be affected by his investments in the Bank of England (16 Feb. 1722).

He was temporarily appeased with a lord lieutenancy, the conversion of his lease of the Pulteney estate into a freehold, and a lucrative office, but in 1724 he was mortally offended at being passed over in favour of the Duke of Newcastle for the post of secretary of state.3

In the following session, on a proposal for discharging a civil list debt, he vented his resentment in a violent personal attack on Walpole, accusing him of increasing his fortune 'by indirect means and corruption' and of squandering public money on 'pensions, bounties, or other gratuities' to Members of Parliament.

After opposing the proposal at every stage, he ended by voting for it,4 which did not save him from dismissal at the end of the session.

Pulteney now entered upon the great period of his career, his seventeen-year opposition to Walpole.

'Formed by nature for social and convivial pleasure', Chesterfield wrote of him,

He had thought himself slighted by Sir Robert Walpole, to whom he publicly vowed not only revenge, but utter destruction ...

He was a most complete orator and debater in the House of Commons; eloquent, entertaining, persuasive, strong, and patriotic as occasion required; for he had arguments, wit, and tears, at his command.

Onslow, who presided over their long parliamentary duel, considered that Pulteney 'certainly hurt Sir Robert more than any of those who opposed him'.5

In 1726 Pulteney, with his cousin, Daniel, and Bolingbroke, founded the Craftsman, which became the organ of the Opposition.

In 1727, on a motion aimed personally at Walpole, he declared that 'this Administration had done more to introduce corruption than ever was done before' and that he would pursue it 'to destruction', an expression which he subsequently explained was to be understood in a purely parliamentary sense.6

At George II's accession, when the King put his civil list up to auction, the highest bidder was Pulteney, but his bid was not accepted.

'Denied leave to stand candidate upon the interest of the Court for Westminster, never consulted in the closet, and always very coldly received in the drawing-room,' he returned to opposition.

In 1729, taunted with opposing the Government because he was out of employment and wanted to get in again, he declared

that he was so far from desiring employments that he took pains to get rid of that he had, and, should any be offered him again, his refusal would show that he did not accuse the Administration out of any such view.

Later that year he told Lord Hervey, whom he was trying to bring over from the Court, that the time was ripe for 'a parliamentary popular Government', that is, a republic, or at least a change of King, 'putting a new one under new restrictions.'

Lashing himself into a rage, he predicted that during the forthcoming session,

as stout as our shitten monarch pretends to be, you will find we shall force him to truckle and make his great fat-arsed wife stink with fear.7

Next year he joined with Sir William Wyndham to form an organized Whig-Tory Opposition, christened 'the Patriots'.

In 1731 he published a pamphlet couched in terms so offensive not only to Walpole but to the King that he was struck out of the Privy Council.8

During the excise bill crisis in 1733 the leaders of the Opposition were so confident of Walpole's fall that they drew up a ministry to succeed him, in which Pulteney figured as first lord of the Treasury and chancellor of the Exchequer.

But in 1736 Walpole was still going strong, while Pulteney, partly from ill-health, partly 'from being weary of the opposing part he had so long unsuccessfully acted', hardly attended the House of Commons.

listened to and encouraged a sort of treaty that was underhand carrying on to make him a peer, buy his silence, and give him rest, but when it came to [the point] he could not stand the reproach he thought he should incur by striking this bargain, and, with that irresolution that was always the predominant defect in his conduct, went on without having courage sufficient either to quite make it or quite break it.9

His attitude was not changed by the opposition successes at the general election of 1741, after which he declared that

he was weary of being at the head of a party; he would rather row in the galleys; and was absolutely resolved not to charge himself with taking the lead.10

According to Speaker Onslow, it was owing to Pulteney's fear of the Pretender,

and not a little too because of his great fortune, which might be at stake, that he had often some checks of conscience, and very melancholy apprehensions, lest his violence against the Administration of Sir Robert Walpole, and joining for that purpose with those supposed to be the enemies to the Government, might not weaken the foundations of it, and give too much advantage to them who were thought to mean its destruction.11

When, on Walpole's fall, Pulteney was invited by the King to form a new Administration, with himself at the Treasury, he refused to accept any employment, contenting himself with a seat in the Cabinet.

When I declined accepting (though extremely pressed by all my friends) of any employment whatsoever on the late change of affairs in England, ... I had then taken a pretty firm resolution never to concern myself with public affairs any more.

I had been long tired with a tedious and disagreeable opposition, and was resolved, whenever I could get fairly and honourably out of it, never to engage on either side any more; that is, I was resolved to have as little to do with Courts as possibly I could, and determined to have nothing to do against them.

This insignificant situation for myself I have at length happily compassed and I am resolved most indolently and steadfastly to persevere in.

In the ensuing negotiations, instead of insisting on a total change of Government, he stipulated for a majority in the Cabinet, but succeeded in securing the admission of only five opposition representatives compared with 13 members of the late ministry.

When the late minister came to be at last fairly run down and got the better of ... almost everybody in the Opposition expected some employment and a total change of hands; scarce any person (though never so inconsiderable) but had carved out some good thing for himself, and many there were who thought they had a right to be consulted in the proper changes that were to be made.

When this was found not to be the case and that the negotiation was fallen absolutely into Lord Carteret's and my hands, many were disappointed and dissatisfied.

A schism was immediately made by some of the most considerable of our friends, and some were persuaded to forsake us, who happened to have the management of affairs in our hands, for no other reason but because we had got it.

This ... soon weakened us and gave strength to the Court again; but what is the hardest of all is that these very people, who thus deprived us of the power of extending the bottom and providing for many of them, grew angry with us that more were not preferred, though they were the only means of hindering it.12

His 'authority, weight, consideration, and power ... in the House of Commons' remained so great that there was 'no withstanding it', till at the end of the session, having obtained places for all his personal followers, he agreed to take a peerage, thus reducing himself to 'an absolute nullity', 'a mere lord with one vote, and his influence in the House of Commons quite at an end'.13

Pulteney, now Earl of Bath, made more than one attempt to recover the opportunity which he had thrown away in 1742.

Only eighteen months after refusing the Treasury he applied for it when it fell vacant on the death of Lord Wilmington (Spencer Compton), who had been put into it as a stop-gap.

But his application was unsuccessful, as was his attempt in February 1746 to form an Administration, which collapsed in 48 hours for lack of parliamentary support.

He spent the rest of his life in retirement, consoling himself with the pleasures of avarice, to which he had always been notoriously, indeed scandalously, addicted.

When he died, 7 July 1764, he was worth £400,000 in money and £30,000 a year in land, half from his own and half from an estate which he had virtually stolen from the Newport family.14

Comments Off on Accounting Alumnus Charles Noski Named Among Top Influential Leaders in Business by Accrediting Body

Lisa and Chuck Noski have funded the Noski Family Scholarship for CSUN accounting students.

Charles "Chuck" Noski '73 (Business Administration), M.S. '95 (Accountancy) '07 (Honorary Doctorate) was 17 years old in 1969 when he embarked on what would be a lifelong relationship with CSUN, then known as San Fernando Valley State College.

Working two to three part-time jobs as an undergraduate, Noski earned a bachelor's degree in business administration in 1973.

He returned in the 1990s to earn a master's degree in accountancy, and CSUN awarded him an honorary doctorate in 2007.

The lessons he learned at CSUN helped him gain the business acumen that would lead to a brilliant career: Following nearly 20 years with "Big Four" accounting firm Deloitte & Touche, Noski went on to hold senior executive positions at AT&T, Bank of America, Northrop Grumman and Hughes Electronics.

On Feb. 5, Noski was named by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) to its 2019 Class of Influential Leaders.

CSUN's David Nazarian College of Business and Economics' accreditation by AACSB International places it among the top 5 percent of global business degree-granting institutions.

The college's accounting, finance and financial planning programs are regularly ranked among the nation's best by experts in those fields.

In its fourth year, the association's 2019 "Influential Leaders Challenge" recognized 33 alumni — and the business schools that prepared them — who personify the role as a visionary figure or change agent.

Each of AACSB's 831 accredited institutions were invited to nominate up to two of their outstanding alumni for consideration.

The 33 honorees hail from 13 countries around the globe.

In recent years, Noski also has served on the boards of directors of a number of leading companies, including Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, ADP, Avon Products and Booking Holdings.

In 2002, the CSUN Alumni Association honored Noski as a Distinguished Alumnus, and in 2011 the CSUN Foundation Board of Directors recognized Noski as an Emeritus Director for life following his many years of service on that board.

He also serves as chairman of the board of trustees of the Financial Accounting Foundation, which oversees the bodies tasked with establishing private sector accounting and financial reporting standards in the U.S.: the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).

Noski was also appointed in January as one of three inaugural members of the recently formed Independent Audit Quality Committee (IAQC), created by Ernst & Young LLP.

Senior leadership of Ernst & Young will be advised by the IAQC when dealing with important aspects of the firm's business, operations, culture, talent strategy, governance and risk management that affect audit quality.

What Noski remembers most about his own education at CSUN are the relationships he built with his professors.

"They had been out in the real world," he said in a 2016 interview with CSUN Magazine.

"They could help prepare you for the competition and business environment you'd encounter.

They were great teachers — they were not only very adept with the subject matter, but they knew how to communicate it.

They really cared about their students, and that showed inside and outside the classroom.

To this day, I still stay in touch with some of those professors."

But what he is most grateful for are the opportunities his CSUN education afforded him.

"When I think about the chance to give back to CSUN and its students today," he said, "I really come back to the word 'opportunity.'

We all have different strengths, different weaknesses and face different challenges.

But what we all deserve, I think, is an opportunity."

Noski and his wife, Lisa, have been actively involved with CSUN for many years, supporting a variety of educational and other initiatives, including The Soraya.

In 2015, they created the Noski Family Scholarship, which annually helps four accounting students at CSUN.

Chandra Subramaniam, dean of the Nazarian College, lauded Chuck Noski for the AACSB international recognition, and he applauded the couple as steadfast supporters of CSUN and its students.

"Chuck Noski understands the value of an outstanding education in business, and he understands the path of our hardworking students.

Like the faculty, staff and administration at CSUN, he is a partner in our students' success and a respected leader in national and international accounting."

Collection: Wide Crawl started March 2011

Web wide crawl with initial seedlist and crawler configuration from March 2011.

This uses the new HQ software for distributed crawling by Kenji Nagahashi.

The seed list for this crawl was a list of Alexa's top 1 million web sites, retrieved close to the crawl start date.

We used Heritrix (3.1.1-SNAPSHOT) crawler software and respected robots.txt directives.

The scope of the crawl was not limited except for a few manually excluded sites.

However this was a somewhat experimental crawl for us, as we were using newly minted software to feed URLs to the crawlers, and we know there were some operational issues with it.

For example, in many cases we may not have crawled all of the embedded and linked objects in a page since the URLs for these resources were added into queues that quickly grew bigger than the intended size of the crawl (and therefore we never got to them).

We also included repeated crawls of some Argentinian government sites, so looking at results by country will be somewhat skewed.

We have made many changes to how we do these wide crawls since this particular example, but we wanted to make the data available "warts and all" for people to experiment with.

We have also done some further analysis of the content.

If you would like access to this set of crawl data, please contact us at info at archive dot org and let us know who you are and what you're hoping to do with it.

We may not be able to say "yes" to all requests, since we're just figuring out whether this is a good idea, but everyone will be considered.

(meta data) TITLE: A Brief History of Fire Hose | Rawhide Fire Hose

(meta data) AUTHOR: https://business.facebook.com/RawhideFireHose/?business_id=529349117250060&ref=bookmarks

We're all about fire hose here at Rawhide, but have you ever wondered what their history is?

Learning about how we went from ox gut to the power house double jacket attack hose is essential to understanding fire engineering and garners an appreciation for the inventors of the ages and those who risked their lives fighting the fires to keep us safe.

It seems that as soon as man created fire, he just as quickly discovered how to put it out.

Well before a conduit was invented, man literally carried water to fires by hand.

This led to the realization that if a vessel could carry a lot of water, the fire would be extinguished faster.

Thus, bags made from ox gut were born, and their existence was documented as early as 400 B.C., in which the bags were filled, then stomped on, blasting the water out of the bag and onto the fire.

Around 1673, Dutch painter, inventor, and printmaker, Jan van der Heyden and his son produced what they referred to as " fire hose".

Interestingly, they sewed leather tubes together in 50 foot lengths, which is still considered a standard length to this day.

This allowed fire fighters to get closer to the fire, which enabled them to aim and shoot the stream precisely where they wanted it.

Jan van der Heyden also wrote the first firefighting manual: Brandspuiten-boek.

In the early 1800's, hydrants, tanks, and cisterns were used, and nozzles were designed to further improve water flow characteristics.

One problem that surfaced early on and plagued early fire hoses was leakage.

The stitches that connected the leather leaked and after a while the leather itself began to seep water.

The introduction of pump action tankers led to over pressure in which the hose would burst.

Rivets were introduced in 1807 and were applied to the thickest part or rear quarters of the cowhides.

This made the hose almost leak proof, however it added significant weight.

A 40 to 50 foot length of hose weighed upwards of 85 pounds.

The leather hose required a good deal of maintenance much as it still does today.

Early leather hose was treated with fish and whale oil to help preserve it.

In 1821, James Boyd patented rubber lined, woven jacketed fire hose.

In those early days of modern fire hose the jackets were made from spun cotton.

Akron Ohio's own Charles Goodyear discovered the vulcanization process, and applied that to rubber hose, reinforced with cotton ply.

Through the subsequent decades to follow, fire hose has undergone monumental changes.

The jackets are now polyester woven yarn, treated to resist mold, mildew and abrasion.

The rubber extrusion process has advanced to the point that it really cannot be improved upon.

A conduit will always be required to move "the wet stuff to the hot stuff" unless someone can devise a way to teleport it.

One can only wonder, what improvements and developments lie ahead?

Oh, yes, which brings me to the namesake of Rawhide Fire Hose.

In recent history of fire hose, bucket brigades were used by townspeople in attempt to extinguish fires.

The buckets were made of leather and primarily used to water horses.

Leather tubes emerged as a more effective and accurate way to battle fires.

Leather is known to be tough, yet flexible making for a good way to carry that water to the fire.

For those of you of the vintage to remember the television series by the same name, starring none other than Clint Eastwood, call Team Rawhide, ask to be placed on hold and enjoy the Blues Brothers rendition of the shows theme song.

I'm a College of Wooster graduate with a degree in English, and I've worked for Rawhide since 2013.

I have two cats, a chubby calico named Demeter, and an overly energetic house panther named Cosmo.

I love tea, books, superheroes, traveling, and avocados.

Until the mid-19th century, most fires were fought by water transported to the scene in buckets. Original hand pumpers discharged their water through a small pipe or monitor attached to the top of the pump tub. It was not until the late 1860s that hoses became widely available to convey water more easily from the hand pumps, and later steam pumpers, to the fire.
 In Amsterdam in the Dutch Republic, the Superintendent of the Fire Brigade, Jan van der Heyden, and his son Nicholaas took firefighting to its next step with the fashioning of the first fire hose in 1673.

Irish actor Stuart Townsend has been out of the public eye focusing on his new family, his brother Dylan has revealed.

The Howth native famously dated Oscar-winner Charlize Theron for 10 years, before splitting in 2010.

"I'm really happy for him ... he's been off the map for the past year," Dylan told the Herald.

"He's in Costa Rica now, he's bought land in Costa Rica and he hasn't been living in LA for the past six months - he's got a whole new family.

"He's about to have a second child and he's fallen in love with a Costa Rican girl as well, and he has his piece of land, so yeah, totally new journey for him," he added.

Dylan said that his big brother still has a home in Los Angeles, but has put acting on the backburner in order to focus on his family.

He's got a home in LA, but he has not been there – I haven't seen him in a while.

He's sort of fallen off the map, bringing up children," he added.

Self-proclaimed hipster Dylan (30) was speaking at the launch of RTE's new reality show, Exiles which follows a bunch of young people hoping to make it in Vancouver.

While most of the cast, including Dylan, are delighted at the opportunity and exposure appearing in such a show brings, others were not so pleased.

Cast members India Dawson (21), Jade Stone (25) and Sean McConnon (21) - a great grandson of 1913 Lockout hero Jim Larkin - were unimpressed with how they appear on the show and the lack of help they got in Canada.

Exiles is a brand new series about the new Irish Emigrants and the new places they go - in this case Vancover, Canada.

"It's not scripted but the edits were terrible the way a scene was made.

"I think Dylan says 'Me and India went home together'.

Well of course we did, we were living in the same house," said India.

The other cast members are Made In Chelsea star Nicola Hughes (25) and musicians George Hutton (27) and Dean Rossiter.

Townsend has a brother, Dylan Townsend, and sister, Chloe Townsend, from his father's first marriage to Lorna Townsend, who died in 1994 of a brain haemorrhage.  Townsend has two half-siblings, Hugo and Ella, from his father's second marriage, to Swedish-born Sofia.
 Townsend dated actress Charlize Theron after meeting her on the set of 2002's "Trapped". The couple lived together in Los Angeles and Ireland. They said they considered themselves married without an actual marriage, with Townsend stating, "We didn't have a ceremony. I don't need a certificate or the state or the church to say otherwise. So no, there's no big official story on a wedding, but we are married.... I consider her my wife and she considers me her husband." Theron split from Townsend when they came back on day two of a planned ten day holiday in Mexico in January 2010.


Five senators from the opposition Democratic Party introduced a resolution condemning the idea.

# Senators Sanders, Warren push resolution decrying PM's West Bank annexation idea

## Move by group of Democrats an apparent warning to Netanyahu, who has recently spoken in favor of extending Israeli law to all settlements

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a Massachusetts Democrat, speaks at an event in Somerville, Massachusetts, April 12, 2019.

WASHINGTON — Five Democratic senators, including the party's deputy leader in the chamber and two leading presidential candidates, on Thursday introduced a resolution decrying any Israeli plan to annex West Bank territory, an apparent shot across the bow at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has recently spoken in support of extending Israeli law to all settlements.

"Unilateral annexation of portions of the West Bank would jeopardize prospects for a two-state solution, harm Israel's relationship with its Arab neighbors, threaten Israel's Jewish and democratic identity, and undermine Israel's security," said the non-binding resolution.

It said the "the policy of the United States should be to preserve conditions conducive to a negotiated two state solution."

The resolution was introduced by Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Wash., joined by Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the deputy minority leader, Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill. and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.

Senator Bernie Sanders, Independent-Vermont, speaks at a news conference on Capitol Hill in Washington, January 30, 2019.

Sanders and Warren were among the Democratic presidential candidates who decried Netanyahu's pledge, before Israel's April 9 elections, to annex all Jewish settlements in the West Bank.

The elections were indecisive and Israelis go to the polls again in September, while Netanyahu remains prime minister.

The liberal Mideast policy organization J Street welcomed the resolution.

"This resolution is an important warning to the Trump administration against any attempts to encourage annexation or undercut the ultimate prospects for a two-state solution," group president Jeremy Ben-Ami said in a statement.

Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump have retreated from endorsing a two-state outcome to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, is set later this month to unveil the economic component of a peace plan he has been preparing for two years.

Feinstein and Sanders are Jewish and Durbin and Duckworth have longstanding relationships with the pro-Israel community.

 McGarry, a feminist, was among activists who set up Women for Independence in 2012. She told the Glasgow "Herald" the group was created "over a glass of wine" with former SSP MSP Carolyn Leckie as its main driving force. Explaining the decision, she said: "We came together because a group of us arrived at the conclusion, individually, that women's voices were missing from both sides of the referendum debate."
 Already a well-known activist, McGarry's profile in the SNP increased when she was selected as the party's candidate for the 2014 Cowdenbeath by-election. She had previously sought selection as an SNP candidate in the 2014 European Parliament election, but failed. McGarry failed to win the by-election, gaining 5,704 votes (28.4%). A year later, she was selected to contest Glasgow East in the 2015 General Election. McGarry became the MP for the Glasgow East Constituency on 8 May 2015, taking the seat from former Labour MP Margaret Curran which was part of a historic election result that saw the SNP win 56 out of Scotland's 59 seats at Westminster.


The accompanying catalogue, co-published by Dancing Foxes Press and CCS Bard, features essays by Ruba Katrib, Arnisa Zeqo and Alex Kitnick, as well as an interview between Churchman and curator Lauren Cornell.

(meta data) TITLE: Leidy Churchman: Crocodile - CCS Bard

Lauren Cornell, Ruba Katrib, Alex Kitnick, Arnisa Zeqo, Karen Kelly, Barbara Schröder

Edited by Lauren Cornell, Karen Kelly, Barbara Schroeder.

Text by Ruba Katrib, Alex Kitnik, Arnisa Zeqo.

Ranging from figurative representation to gestural abstraction, monumental landscape paintings to more intimate portraits, the oeuvre of American painter Leidy Churchman (born 1979) channels his artistic and literary influences, friendships, moods, surrounding landscapes and the visual iconography of divergent religions and philosophies.

Crocodile highlights the artist's investigations into consciousness in his renderings of anthropomorphic animals and psychological states; his appropriation of existing artworks and aesthetics; and his recasting of various signs and symbols, from his depiction of the Buddhist symbol of the protector deity in Mahakala (2017) to the Mastercard logo in Mastercard (2013).

Churchman, who divides his time between New York and Maine, emerges here as a dynamic protagonist of contemporary American painting.

In addition to collecting 90 reproductions of works, the book features artwork made especially for it, plus texts by Ruba Katrib, Alex Kitnik and Arnisa Zeqo, in addition to a conversation between Churchman and Lauren Cornell.

Leidy Churchman (b. 1979, Villanova, PA) is an American painter who lives and works in New York. Churchman’s work is included in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art and Mumok, among others.
"Crocodile", Churchman’s first US museum exhibition at Hessel Museum of Art at Bard College, surveys more than sixty oil paintings dating from 2010 to the present.
