The 1892 United States presidential election in New York took place on November 8, 1892. All contemporary 44 states were part of the 1892 United States presidential election. Voters chose 36 electors to the Electoral College, which selected the president and vice president.

New York was won by the Democratic nominees, former President Grover Cleveland of New York and his running mate former Congressman and Assistant Postmaster General Adlai Stevenson I of Illinois. Cleveland and Stevenson defeated the Republican nominees, incumbent President Benjamin Harrison of Indiana and his running mate U.S. Ambassador to France Whitelaw Reid of Ohio.

Also running a significant campaign that year was the Populist Party candidate, Congressman James B. Weaver of Ohio with his running mate state attorney general James G. Field of Virginia, although Weaver's primarily Western-based campaign did not perform strongly in New York. Despite receiving 8.51% nationally and winning electoral votes from six states, Weaver finished in fifth place in New York State, with only 1.23 percent of the vote, behind fourth-place Socialist Labor candidate Simon Wing’s 1.34 percent.

Cleveland carried New York State with 48.99 percent of the vote to Harrison's 45.58 percent, a victory margin of 3.41 points. In a distant third came the Prohibition Party candidate John Bidwell with 2.86 percent.

New York weighed in for this election as less than one percentage point more Democratic than the national average.

The Democratic win of New York’s electoral votes marked a personal comeback for Grover Cleveland in his home state, as he had narrowly won the state in his initial 1884 presidential campaign, but a narrow defeat here in 1888 had cost him the 1888 presidential election, partially the result of strong opposition to Cleveland from the Tammany Hall machine which dominated New York politics at the time.

Cleveland’s relatively narrow statewide victory relied heavily on a strong margin of victory in New York City, receiving more than 60% of the vote in New York County along with victories in Kings County, Queens County, and Richmond County. Cleveland also won nearby Westchester County and Rockland County. Harrison fared better upstate, where he won most counties, although Cleveland carried several upstate counties including Erie County, home to the city of Buffalo, and Albany County, home to the state capital of Albany.

The Sins of the Father: A Romance of the South is a 1912 novel by Thomas Dixon Jr.

Plot summary
Dan Norton, a Confederate veteran, Ku Klux Klan leader and newspaper publisher, hires a quadroon called Cleo Peeler as a caretaker for his son and his ailing wife, Jean Norton, a descendant of Southern planters. They sleep together and have a daughter, whom he sends to an orphanage. Shortly after, Cleo attempts to blackmail him to regain her position as caretaker.

Norton runs for office as a pro-segregation politician. Meanwhile, his son has a relationship with the octoroon daughter Norton had with Cleo. His wife Jean commits suicide. As he kills his son to put an end to the relationship, he also commits suicide.

Main themes
The main theme is miscegenation, or in Dixon's words, it was a "study of race mixing". A second theme is the white male's sexual desire for the black woman. A consubstantial theme is "the need for complete racial separation."

The novel portrays the Wilmington insurrection of 1898.

Critical reception
Academic Joseph B. Keener has argued that Dixon "reverses the stereotyped figure of the tragic mulatto, making her the tyrannical aggressor and the cause of the South's degradation." Instead of being a "victim of white sexual exploitation," she becomes "the sexual aggressor."

According to Sandra Gunning, an Assistant Professor of English at the University of Michigan, the book may have been less successful than The Clansman or The Leopard's Spots because it was too fatalistic. She went on to characterize the plot as the "repetition of antebellum white traditions of breaking sexual and familial taboos." She added that Dixon was "forced to kill his hero to cleanze the novel's idealized white world." In contrast, she added that the other two aforementioned novels had provided "a more palatable fantasy of a white male rescue based on disciplining of unruly body."

Theatrical performances
Dixon had first written a three-act play in 1909, which he turned into a novel published in 1912. The play was first performed on September 21, 1910 at the Academy of Music in Norfolk, Virginia. According to Dixon, after the lead actor was killed by a shark at Wrightsville Beach, off the coast of Wilmington, North Carolina, Dixon took over the role and acted in the play for a year. However, biographer Anthony Slide disagrees with this story, suggesting the lead actor was dismissed at the end of that month.

Gooney Bird Greene (2002) is the first of a series of children's novels by Lois Lowry concerning the storytelling abilities of a second-grade girl. It was illustrated by Middy Thomas.

Plot
Gooney Bird Greene has just transferred to Mrs. Pidgeon's second grade class in Watertower. She is unusually self-confident, likes to be the center of attention, and has an eccentric flair for style, and an exciting, almost magical past. When Mrs. Pidgeon suggests storytelling lessons, the class demands, instead of well-worn Christopher Columbus, Gooney Bird as the main character of the story.

So begins Gooney Bird's series of autobiographical tales, outlandish in theme but "only absolutely true": "How Gooney Bird Got Her Name","How Gooney Bird Came from China on a Flying Carpet", "The Prince, the Palace, and the Diamond Earrings", "Why Gooney Bird Was Late for School Because She Was Directing a Symphony Orchestra", and "Beloved Catman Is Consumed by a Cow". Along the way, the class learns not just about Gooney Bird, but how to tell a story, and how everyone has a story to tell.

Reception
Reviews of Gooney Bird Greene were generally positive. Though Publishers Weekly viewed Gooney Bird's precocious storytelling skills with some skepticism, it wrote that her eccentric behavior and stories were entertaining, particularly to child readers. Kirkus Reviews praised the book's illustration and design choices, and described the titular second-grader's tales as "clever", noting that the book was a good instrument for teaching writing and storytelling.

San Juan del Rebollar is a small town of the province of Zamora, in north-western Spain. It is around  from the city of Zamora.

It is a typical countryside Spanish village, consisting basically of a number of houses around a central square. The town is in a little valley, by the side of the Mena stream. The core of the town is here, although it has expanded up the sides of the valley and now part of the village is out of it. The economy has long been based on agriculture and cattle. Currently, most of its inhabitants have jobs outside the village, though they still grow cereals and vegetables, for animal feeding and human consumption.

The origin of San Juan come from the Middle Ages, and the town was probably founded by the time of the Spanish Reconquista. The name of the town, San Juan del Rebollar, is because it was once surrounded by a forest of "rebollos" (young oak trees).

The climate is the typical Castilian one. It is a continental type, with cold winters and mild summers. However, in the last few years, an increase in the summer temperature has been observed.

Sal Salandra (born January 1, 1946) is an American contemporary artist who creates primarily homoerotic embroidery which he calls "thread painting."

Biography 
Sal Salandra is a second-generation Italian-American who grew up in Edgewood, New Jersey with three brothers and three sisters as a devout Catholic who considered a career in the priesthood. Christian imagery remains present in his artwork. Salandra studied to become a priest; however, because of his severe dyslexia, he gave up this career path and instead became a hairdresser. Salandra worked as a hairdresser in New Jersey for 55 years. In 1993, Salandra moved with his husband to East Hampton, New York from the couple's apartment in the West Village.

Salandra picked up needlepoint in 1980 when he was bedridden with the flu, with a needlepoint kit he received as a gift from his mother-in-law. In 2015 he began using needlepoint to make figurative images of human forms. This change lead to his trademark homoerotic motifs. His work melds leather, BDSM, and other gay sexual subcultures with figures from American pop culture and Catholic iconography. Salandra cites the corporeal punishments intrinsic to Catholic tradition as an inspiration for his BDSM scenes.

His "thread paintings" are often composed of multiple smaller scenes composing one larger scene. As Osman Can Yerebakan analyzes Salandra's work for the Brooklyn Rail: "he blends Hieronymus Bosch’s chaos with the flat pseudo-perspectives of Middle Eastern and South Asian miniature painting."

Salandra received media attention after his inclusion in the January 2020 iteration of New York's Outsider Art Fair brought a new focus on his work. The completely self-taught artist had his first 2021 solo show with appointment-only gallery Club Rhubarb, when he was 75-years old and that was followed by a group show in the Netherlands in 2022. His works are often displayed in "candy-colored" frames.
