Together, they made many overseas tours, and he became the BBC SSO's Conductor Laureate. In Britain, Maksymiuk has also conducted the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, the BBC Philharmonic, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, the London Symphony Orchestra, London Philharmonic Orchestra and The Philharmonia. In addition he has conducted many other orchestras in Europe, the US and Japan, Australia and Israel.

Among premieres given by Maksymiuk are A Mind of Winter by George Benjamin in 1981, Still Movement by Harrison Birtwhistle in 1984,  The Confession of Isobel Gowdie by James MacMillan in 1990, as well as works by Krzysztof Meyer, Paul Patterson and Kazimierz Sikorski.

In April 1990 he was awarded the Honorary Degree of Doctor of Letters by Strathclyde University. In 1999 he received the Elgar Medal conferred by the Elgar Society.

4Dwm is the window manager component of the IRIX Interactive Desktop normally used on Silicon Graphics workstations running IRIX. 4Dwm is derived from the older Motif Window Manager and uses the Motif widget toolkit on top of the X Window System found on most Unix systems. 4Dwm on IRIX was one of the first default graphical user interface desktops to be standard on a Unix computer system. 4Dwm refers to "Fourth dimension window manager" and has no relation to dwm.

Other X window managers that mimic the 4Dwm look and feel exist, such as 4Dwm theme for IceWM and 5Dwm which is a clone/compatible implementation of 4Dwm based OpenMotif. 5Dwm support both the classic SGI look and a modern/polished look and feel with anti-aliased fonts and UTF-8 support.

Features 
 A stacking window manager
 Uses the Motif widget library
 Applications can be launched via a menu panel
 Window decorations include borders and a titlebar

Nargelene Mendez is a Filipina national, and was formerly a domestic worker in Arabia.  Mendez has made allegations that she was forced to labor under inhumane slave-like working conditions, until her October rescue by a Philippine diplomatic worker.  Mendez's Facebook documentation of her working conditions under her Arabian employers, which to viewers may seem to have been akin to de facto forced migrant slavery, aroused worldwide journalistic condemnation.  Mendez documented claims of the physical abuse and neglect that her employers had subjected her to, including beatings, a "sleeping berth" in a laundry room cupboard, and the refusal of her employers to return her passport to her.  Mendez's self-documented Facebook story received nearly half a million hits.  In October the Philippine Embassy informed the BBC that Mendez had been rescued from her employers, but that the Embassy was still involved in negotiations with the Arabian government to arrange for her safe exit of the country.  One month on, as of 27 November 2014, Mendez remains trapped in the Philippine Consulate of Jedda, with the Philippine government still unable to secure from the Arabian government, her safe return to the Philippines.  Nonetheless, she still hopes for her safe return home sometime before Christmas.

The Siemer House was located on Lot 1, Block 17 of the original town of Davenport, Iowa, United States, which today is the west side of downtown. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. In 1983 it was included as a contributing property in the West Third Street Historic District. The building deteriorated and it was torn down in 2007.

History
J.C.F Siemer was a brick mason who immigrated to Davenport from the German states of Schleswig-Holstein. He arrived here in the 1850s, which was a period of significant Germann immigration. The house is attributed to him and was constructed in 1865. The building has had various owners and occupants over the years. In the latter part of its existence, it was divided into apartments and then became part of a used car lot.

Architecture
The Siemer House was a two-story brick building on a stone foundation. This late Victorian structure featured details that evoked the Italianate style: a cube-like mass, a bracketed metal cornice, the tall, narrow profile of the fenestration, and the centralized entrance. The windows were symmetrically placed on the façade with five on the second floor and two flanking the entrance on both sides. The windows were surrounded by small wooden headers and sills. It was originally built as a single-story structure, with the date of the second story addition by the original builder and owner unknown. Another addition onto the rear of the house added a kitchen on the first floor and a porch on the second floor. There are several other examples of this type of house in the city, but they are all detached dwellings in residential areas while the Siemer House was in a more urban setting.

Pontyberem railway station was opened in 1909 to timetabled passenger services however services for miners began in 1898. It continued to serve the inhabitants of the Pontyberem area and hinterland between 1909 and 1953; it was one of several basic stations opened on the Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway in Carmarthenshire, Wales.

History

Pontyberem station was opened on 1 February 1909 by the Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway on the Kidwelly and Cwmmawr section of the line and was closed by the Great Western Railway on Saturday 19 September 1953. It was on the Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway 

The railway was originally a freight only line apart from passenger trains for miners, but stations were established due to pressure from the public. The freight service continued for coal traffic until 1996 by which time the last of the local collieries had closed down.

Infrastructure
The station stood some way to the east of the village centre and had a single platform, a waiting room and ticket office built with corrugated iron and a passing loop with the through line for freight traffic. In 1915 the signal box stood at the eastern end of the platform and the station stood on the southern side of the line. Two water tanks were present in the station area. A goods shed stood to the west of the level crossing and a line ran off to a spoil heap to the north-west. To the east lay the extensive rail network of the Pont-y-Berem Slants Colliery.

By 1964 Pont-y-Berem Slants Colliery had closed, as had the station. The line was partly built on the old Kidwelly and Llanelly Canal, however incline planes were located at several sites such as Ponthenri.

Remnants
The section south of Pinged, between Burry Port and Craiglon Bridge Halt is now a footpath and cycleway, however other sections of the line have formal and informal footpaths on the old trackbed. At Pontyberem the station area has been built on and the trackbed is partly footpathed.

The Russian Boxing Federation (RBF) () is the governing body of both Olympic-style and professional boxing in Russia. The Federation was founded on 1 February 1992 after the dissolution of the USSR Boxing Federation. The RBF is the member of the International Boxing Association and European Boxing Confederation.

The IBA temporarily suspended Russian athletes from competing in international competitions starting on 4 March 2022 due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Later that month, the Federation expressed its direct support for the ongoing invasion of Ukraine, and stated: "The entire boxing community of Russia expresses its full confidence and support to the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin!"

Umar Kremlev has been the IBA president since 2017.

Controversy

Olympics 2016 Rio, Brazil 
During the 2016 Olympic Games several bouts involving Russian boxers seemed to be judged in favour of the Russian athlete, when it was clear to many they had lost. Bantamweight Vladimir Nikitin was given a unanimous decision against Ireland's world champion Michael Conlan in the quarterfinal of the tournament, with judges all scoring for the Russian in rounds one and three. Afterwards, in an irate television interview, Conlan claimed AIBA were cheats and had been paid to fix fights. In order to reach the quarterfinal bout with Conlan, Nikitin was controversially awarded the win by split decision when he fought Thailand's Chatchai Butdee. According to the Bangkok Post, Butdee was quoted as saying, "I should have won the fight. I think I was more on target. I do not really understand the judges' decisions."

The day after the quarterfinal AIBA denied these allegations; however, they removed several Judges and Referees for the panel for the rest of the games over irregularities in scoring. They also stated decisions would stand.
