# Sam McKinniss

Sam McKinniss (born 1985) is an American abstract and figurative postmodern painter based in Brooklyn.

## Education

Sam McKinniss was born in Minnesota and grew up in Connecticut. He graduated from the Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow, Scotland in 2005. He received a BFA in painting from the Hartford Art School in Hartford, Connecticut in 2007, and an MFA from the Steinhardt School at New York University in 2013.

## Work

McKinniss's work has been shown in galleries and museums since 2005.
His first solo show in New York, entitled "Black Leather Sectional," opened at Joe Sheftel Gallery in May 2015 and his first solo show in Los Angeles, "Dear Metal Thing," opened at Team Bungalow in June 2015. His show "Egyptian Violet" opened at Team Gallery in New York in October 2016. He made his first appearance at the Miami edition of the international art fair Art Basel in 2015.
In his figurative painting, which has become the dominant practice, McKinniss works from photographs, found images as well as pictures he took. His subjects include reclining male nudes, images from popular culture, and floral still lifes. McKinniss develops a symbolist vocabulary for contemporary figurative painting; he sources material primarily from online image searching.
McKinniss has made a large number of paintings that draw on the still-lifes of the 19th-century artist Henri Fantin-Latour, for example, White Roses in a Short Glass (after Fantin-Latour). Latour’s influence on his style can be seen in the heightened colour contrasts with which he paints his figurative paintings.
McKinniss painted a series of "men in repose" for the second issue of Adult. His painting of Lorde was the cover art of her 2017 album Melodrama NME magazine selected the cover for their list of the best album art of the 21st century so far and it received praise from commentators at Billboard, Paste and Fuse.

# Generationism

Generationism is the belief that a specific generation has inherent traits that make it inferior or superior to another generation. The term is usually applied to claims of superiority in the expressed values, valuations, lifestyles, and general beliefs of one generation compared to those of another, where objectively verifiable criteria substantiating the claim of superiority in themselves are lacking.

## Description

Generationism is most commonly used as an accusation against the belief that the contemporary generation in itself is inherently superior to previous generations, for example through the common practice of pejoratively referring to ancient cultures as "primitive" – not to be confused with the positive label of primitivism – although an older generation's opposition to the values and lifestyles of a younger generation may also popularly be referred to as generationist.

## Critical analysis

Generationism as a recurring sociological phenomenon has been studied in detail by the Swedish philosophers Alexander Bard and Jan Söderqvist in their work The Global Empire (published in Swedish in 2003). Bard and Söderqvist regard generationism as a close but far less frequently analyzed relative of racism which they propose should be studied in more detail to strengthen the general argumentation for relativism and pragmatism in contemporary philosophy.

# Prisedkino

Prisedkino (Russian: Приседкино) is a rural locality (a village) in Arkhangelskoye Rural Settlement, Sokolsky District, Vologda Oblast, Russia. The population was 1 as of 2002.

# Eccles Road railway station

Eccles Road railway station is on the Breckland line in the east of England, serving the villages of Eccles, Quidenham and Wilby in Norfolk. The line runs between Cambridge in the west and Norwich in the east.
Eccles Road is situated between Harling Road and Attleborough, 104 miles 36 chains (168.1 km) from London Liverpool Street via Ely. The station is managed by Greater Anglia, which also operates most of the services calling at the station. Some East Midlands Railway also stop at Eccles Road.
The station takes its name from being outside of the now abandoned original village of Eccles although the church Eccles St. Mary still stands and is one of 124 original round-tower churches in Norfolk. A new settlement, also called Eccles, has developed around the station. The station is situated in the civil parish of Quidenham, about 2 miles (3 km) north of that village, and 1 mile (1.5 km) north-east of Snetterton Motor Racing Circuit.
The station is unstaffed and has two platforms, adjacent to a level crossing. Wooden level crossing gates used to be opened and closed manually by a signaller in the local signal box, which is dated 1883. However, in 2012 the signal box was closed and the crossing was renewed with barriers controlled from Cambridge. The redundant signal box still stands across the road from the westbound (Cambridge) platform (as of 2024).

## History

The Bill for the Norwich & Brandon Railway (N&BR) received Royal Assent on 10 May 1844. Work started on the line in 1844 and the line and its stations were opened on 30 July 1845. The line ran from Ely to Trowse, in Norwich. The link into Norwich was delayed due to the need to build a bridge over the River Wensum that kept the river navigable. One month before the N&BR opened a Bill authorising the amalgamation of the Yarmouth & Norwich Railway with the N&BR came into effect and so Eccles Road station became a Norfolk Railway asset.

## Services

As of October 2024, Monday to Saturday there are two trains per day eastbound to Norwich, at 06:55 and 07:56 - both are timed to arrive in Norwich before 09:00 and operated by Greater Anglia.

On Saturday afternoons there are two westbound services to Stansted Airport via Cambridge, both operated by Greater Anglia.
There is no Sunday service.

August 1868 is considered to be the official date of establishment, Synelnykove was then nothing more than a train station. It was named in honor of the noble Synelnikov family, who owned these lands until the end of the 18th century. In 1896, the train station was connected to the Kursk-Kharkiv-Sevastopol railways and was officially opened on 15 November 1873. With the development of the railway Synelnykove became an important transport hub. Industry and trade began to develop in the city.

Since 1979 and until 18 July 2020, Synelnykove was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and served as the administrative center of Synelnykove Raion though it did not belong to the raion. In July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast to seven, the city of Synelnykove was merged into Synelnykove Raion.
Due to the law "On the Condemnation and Prohibition of Propaganda of Russian Imperial Policy in Ukraine and the Decolonization of Toponymy" (in April 2023 signed by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy) the city needs to be renamed. According to law this renaming has to take place before 27 January 2024. On 1 January 2024, five (new) name options were offered to a public discussions would last until 20 January 2024.

# Mater Dei School (Bethesda, Maryland)

Mater Dei is an elementary school for boys grades 1 through 8, conducted by Catholic laymen, in Bethesda, Maryland.

## History

Mater Dei was founded in 1960. Founder Robert W. Barros III, who was headmaster until 1985, modelled the school after Saint David's School, an all-boys Catholic school in New York City. It opened with 55 students at a campus on Churchill Road in Silver Spring, Maryland, but moved to its present location in 1964, having expanded to 172 students.
Controversy over allowing women on the school's board of trustees ended with an election in which five men and three women ran for five spots. Once elected, Edward Bennett Williams stepped down in order to give his spot to a woman by default. His son, Edward "Ned" Williams, later became Mater Dei's headmaster.

# Apsley Marina

Apsley Marina, also referred to as Apsley Lock Marina, is a basin used for mooring narrowboats on the east side of the Grand Union Canal at Apsley, Hertfordshire, England.

## History

This former greenfield site is on the east side of the Grand Union Canal, immediately opposite to the former location of Apsley Mill. This was a flour mill on the west side of the canal, which was converted into a paper making factory in 1778, and then acquired by the papermaking inventor, John Dickinson, in 1809. Following a change in ownership, Apsley Mill ceased the manufacture of stationery in 1999.
The site was acquired by Fairview Homes in the late 1990s, as part of a project to redevelop both sides of the canal for housing. After much of the housing had been built and sold to householders, British Waterways took over ownership and management of the remaining land on the east side of the canal in November 2002. Following the completion of extensive excavation, earth-moving and civil engineering activities, the new marina opened to boats in 2003. A new public house named "The Paper Mill" was erected on the west side of the canal, and a footbridge, designed by Mark Lovell Design Engineers, was installed to connect the public house, on the west side of the canal, to the marina on the east side of the canal.

## Operations

The marina has 44 leisure berths for short-term customers and 20 residential berths for long-term customers. It is operated by Aquavista, formerly British Waterways Marinas Limited (BWML). Boat access to the Grand Union Canal is on the southwest side of the marina, through a lift bridge: a residential street, known as Dickinson Quay, runs along the other three sides of the marina.

## Education

Sanaroa has one primary school run by the Catholic Church. Students come from all over Sanaroa, some walking or canoeing 5 km (3.1 mi) to school. Many of the students have rarely or never left the island, and have little exposure to urban life. The island's two main religions are the United Church and Catholic Church. In 2007 a Christian Mission Fellowship church was established. Today many students have formally done grade 8 and many have continued to High School. However the biggest problem that the students face is school fees and unfortunately many have withdrawn from school. Despite the problems a few others have been assisted and supported by their parents and relatives have ventured to find jobs in towns and are working. Education is recently seen as important to raise the standard of living and bring changes to the villages and families. Another elementary school has been built in Siawawa section to cater to children due to distance. The person behind the planning and building of the school is Mr Papu Martine from Kogeta Village.

## Council areas

Sanaroa's three council areas are Etana, Siawawa Udaudana and Tewala island. The island has four council areas mainly surrounded by sea.

## Language

Sanaroa language has faded or disappeared. The local people call it the K language because the 'k' sound is used frequently. Today there are no persons speaking the language. The last woman who used the "K" language was Mis Abokagu from Gadigadili Village. Sanaroa was part of the dialect continuum of the Dobu language, which has 100,000 speakers.

## Life style

The local people live a subsistence-farming life style. The people on the island go fishing and do gardening to feed themselves. The staple foods are yams, sago, fish and bananas. They use canoes, dinghies and other sea-going vessels as transport. There are no trucks, cars, mains power or airports on the island. The economy of the island heavily depend on the sea or the marine resource to earn cash from outside communities

## Natural events

Sanaroa island is experiencing sea erosion due to wave action, and tides and sea currents and some smaller islands appear to be sinking quickly.
