Community-Based Care Improves Birth Outcomes for Women At Risk
athryn Hall, founder and executive director of the Center for Community
Health and Well-Being (the Center), first became interested in infant
mortality in the 1980s while working for the California Department of Health
“I saw the costs to the state system associated with negative birth outcomes,
and I wanted to save the state some money,” Hall said. It didn’t take long for
this interest to take root, motivating her to start her own community-based
organization. Over the next 14 years, she developed a true passion for ensuring
healthy births among underserved women in the Sacramento area.
Under Hall’s leadership, a number of different programs have been established
at the Center that target at-risk pregnant women, their partners and their
younger siblings. Notably, its Birthing Project model has been replicated in
more than 70 communities.
The Center received a three-year grant of $120,000 from TCWF to provide
prenatal and health promotion services and to build the organization’s fund
“Community-based agencies that know their target populations are vital parts of
California’s health care safety net,” said Alicia Procello, TCWF program
director. “With the struggling economy and state budget crisis, it is
critically important that agencies like the Center have a broad base of support
for their programs.”
||The Center’s programs guarantee that at-risk young women receive culturally
competent prenatal care and options for delivery at hospitals, local birthing
centers or at home. They have the option of being paired with a “SisterFriend,”
members of the community who volunteer to provide emotional support and
assistance to women throughout their pregnancies and up to their babies’ first
birthday. Clients are also linked to supportive services that provide
assistance in such areas as housing, education and their on-site substance
abuse program. Women are encouraged to bring their younger siblings to the
Center for participation in its prevention programs. The Center’s staff is
reflective of the primarily African-American and Latina clients served, most of
whom are members of the community in which the Center is located.
More than 20 percent of the women who enroll in the Center’s prenatal program
present with positive drug screens. The social workers’ offices are purposely
located near the Center’s midwives’ offices. Staff helps women deal with
immediate stressors first, such as finding a safe place to stay and helping
with substance abuse problems. Then they escort the women across the hall to
meet with a midwife. Fathers are encouraged to enroll in The Barber Shop, a
program that provides information, services and support to new dads.
“It’s easier to change your behavior when you’re not working alone,” the
Center’s Hall said. “Because of the difficult circumstances in their lives,
many people with low health status don’t feel good about themselves or have a
sense of purpose in their lives. By treating them affirmatively, by looking at
their strengths, we can build their feelings of self-worth to the point where
they are more likely to take the steps they need to in terms of behavior change
to be healthy.”
“I’m optimistic that we can continue to reduce infant mortality,” Hall said.
Along with the challenges that clients bring to the Center, the majority also
brings a spirit of resiliency and determination.

As the new look Brixton Lady Topcats get ready for their 2013/14 campaign to start this coming weekend, we got a chance to ask new Head Coach Steve Vear his thoughts leading into the season.
Entering your first ever season as a Head Coach, what will you bring in your rookie season?
I really don’t look at it being my ‘rookie’ season as I’ve been around the game my whole life. I have been fortunate to play for some great coaches who have taught me so much about the game. I feel that this is a natural transition for me to start coaching and pass on my knowledge. What I will bring is a lot of passion, a teaching mentality and high expectations. These are all attributes that helped me to become a successful player so these will be the basis of my coaching philosphy.
How has pre season gone so far?
Pre season has been great. I really can’t complain about much in terms of getting the players I wanted, ample practice time, and also having them buy into the team concept we will have this year. The only downside of pre season was that it became evident it was impossible to find a team to organise a friendly game with.
What should we be expecting to see out on the court from your team this season?
The team will play uptempo. We have a lot of great athletes and quick guards so getting out on the break is something we will aim to do. Tenacious on defense and unselfish on offence. Something the ladies have really bought into which has been great to see.
How have you found adapting from playing to coaching so far?
This is something I assume most players turning to coaching find difficult. It’s strange being on the sidelines giving so much direction and seeing a whole new perspective of the game. I have found out very quickly that you have to care about every player and manage all of them individually. It has been challenging at times but something I know through experience I will get better at.
Finally, what are your main goals for the upcoming season?
I’m a person who is big on goals, setting targets to focus on in order to stay on course. I have set the team three goals for the season where the main overall goal for us will be to get promoted to Division 1.
Make sure to come and support the new look Lady Topcats in their quest for promotion with the first game of the season vs Solent Stars this coming Sunday 6th October | 2pm tip off at Brixton Rec.
The game will also be available on Live Stats here

That is the label, coined by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, for what is set to be a barrage of automatic tax increases and huge spending cuts that will kick in as a result of the previous actions by the president and Congress to kick decisions about federal budget woes down the road.
Just about everyone agrees that such an event would be catastrophic to the economy, sucking out so much money as to cause at least another recession, if not a full depression.
Obama wants to do just what he told the American electorate he wanted to do. To keep money flowing through the economy, he wants to maintain tax cuts for households making less than $250,000 a year. To bring some much-needed cash into federal accounts, he does want them to expire for those making more than that.
The Republican line is still that none of the tax cuts should expire especially those that benefit the wealthy, which Republicans wrongly refer to as "job creators."
Jobs are not created by people with scads of cash socked away. They are created by people with just enough money to buy a few things from cars to cell phones, from underwear to ball caps who will buy more if the middle-class and payroll tax cuts stay in place.
In the House, where Republicans maintain their majority, Speaker John Boehner has indicated some flexibility. In the Senate, where Minority Leader Mitch McConnell never had any stated goal other than to make Obama a one-term president, not so much.
Republicans are right to insist that Obama's re-election is not the only thing that matters. But Republicans are wrong to pretend that Obama's re-election does not matter at all.
The fact that Obama was able to win in the face of a painfully slow recovery and unemployment rates that would be the end of many administrations means that the traditional Republican trickle-down approach has been rejected by the voters, even more than Obama has been retained.
Republicans, including those from Utah, must show a willingness to work with the president, not at cross-purposes with him, to solve this problem.

We design routing and scheduling policies that optimize network throughput in multi-hop wireless networks where nodes are powered by renewable energy sources. The policies that we propose deliver maximum throughput, and yet do not require explicit knowledge of the statistics of the energy harvesting or the traffic generation processes. We consider both the cases of infinite and finite energy storage capacity at nodes. The results in the latter case provide bounds on the capacity of the energy storage devices at the individual nodes that is minimally required for obtaining maximum throughput.


Superior Sound Quality - Experience crisp, high-fidelity sound while Bluetooth 5 provides faster pairing and a stable, efficient wireless connection.
One-Step Reconnection - Simply take the earbuds out of the charging case and they will automatically connect to your phone (after being paired the first time).
Convenient Touch Control - Effortlessly manage audio playback & calls with the multi-function touch panel and microphone on each earbud. The earbuds can even be used alone like a Bluetooth headset.
Great Battery Life - The earbuds alone provide up to 5 hours of high-quality sound output on a single charge, and the included charging case provides an additional 4 charges, giving 25 hours of total playtime.

Vegemite is a typical Australian spread, known for its intense and salty flavor. It is usually eaten for breakfast spread on toast and butter, but it can also be an ingredient in other recipes.
Vegemite paste was first created in Melbourne, Australia, in 1922 by the food company Fred Walker & Co. The recipe was developed to take advantage of waste from beer production. Vegemite contains a number of natural ingredients, the main ones being brewer's yeast, salt, yeast extract and different vegetables.
This is a very common breakfast in many Australian homes and can be found in any supermarket or food store in the country. It is also a common ingredient in some recipes, such as meat pies and soups.

Political Alignment, Attitudes toward Government, and Tax Evasion
AbstractWe ask whether attitudes toward government play a causal role in the evasion of US personal income taxes. As turnover elections move voters in partisan counties into and out of alignment with the party of the president, we find with alignment (i) taxpayers report more easily evaded forms of income; (ii) suspect EITC claims decrease; and (iii) audits triggered and audits found to owe additional tax decrease. Coupled with evidence that alignment leads to more favorable views on taxation and spending, our results provide real world evidence that a positive outlook on government lowers tax evasion.

PALACE 0.5 (SYDNEY)
ft Francis Xavier + Horowitz
First Release Tix: avail 14/2/17
Hellbent on sharing some tasty morsels of house and techno with everyone, PALACE is your silver platter, your bridge across the moat, your knight in shining armour, your finely tuned donkey into deep dance space from which there is no return.
We as your loyal hosts do solemnly swear to uphold our deep seeded values in great dance music, to ensure the finest is reserved for you, our hood, our family.
Welcome to the PALACE journey
Sydney based DJ/Producer/Engineer/Musician/Party promoter/Label owner/Synth hoarder Francis Xavier has been mixing it up with what can only be described as a homage to his many long nights spent delving into the dark recesses of clubs, studios, and appeasing music lovers the world over.
For young Horowitz, the nature nurture dichotomy is particularly important. With a surname like Horowitz, he was practically born into the darker side of dance music but growing up in the fun loving coastal town of Byron Bay, his music exudes a certain light-hearted quality. Horowitz’s sound is a truly unique property in comparison to the other artists on the Unknown Records roster. His international techno flavour that infuses his jovial and laid-back personality into classic dark techno vibes sets the benchmark for the perfect hybrid in ultimate rave tunes.

Get down early to avoid disapointment.
Crown Ruler & Niche Productions are beaming with excitement to invite you to ‘You’re A Melody;’ a dance with Floating Points & Red Greg at Jam Gallery on Friday 27th of January.
This underground adaptation of their infamous Plastic People residency in the UK will see FP & RG going heart2heart and brain2brain in the basement for all 6 hours.
Sam Shepherd AKA Floating Points and Darren Griffiths AKA Red Greg are two of the UK’s most respected diggers and DJs, who were united by their shared affection for the elusive track 'You're a Melody' by small time Michigan soul band, Aged in Harmony. After Darren guided Sam in hunting down one of the scarcely owned original pressings of the record, the two teamed up with Mafalda & the Y.A.M. enthusiasts she deems ‘Team For Someone Special,’ to reissue the 45” through ‘Melodies International’.
The much loved broadcasts of You’re A Melody parties speak for themselves, where cheering crowds eagerly wait for the needle to drop on Floating Points & Red Greg’s cherished tunes. From roaring modern soul ballads and brazilian bunsens, to funk cuts you could bang someone over the head with, their euphoric selections always aim to create a dance floor where the audience aren’t looking at the stage but are instead looking at each other.
FP and RG are going in from 9pm and flowing on til the early hours, for what is set to be a very special night of music with the Melodies Family.
“Melodies International’s mission is to spread love all over the land in general and happiness in dance floors in particular!” - Mafalda (Melodies International)
Our weekly Wednesday nights have been growing into THE techno and house events in Sydney.
This week we are amping it up and throwing a huge Australia Day eve Party since you all have the next day off! :)

// Robbie Lowe //
Robbie has always owned a warm house and tech-house sound. Vibey, underground baselines, snappy percussion and warmth in his choice of melodies. In the latter early years, you would usually see Robbie at Sydney's leading record stores hunting down the latest End Recordings or Eukatech. Not much has changed. His approach is an ever-updated version of the style he has always had since then. Diverse, deep and his programming is deadly. Pin point accuracy and never losing the flow. And as far as mixing, he's the tightest of them all. Steady as a rock.
The first weekend of Summer is here!

Boris combines his sound with a maximum of variety which has no peer. Each song is some kind of its own adventure. Once in a relation with elements of electro, break beats, IDM, or sometimes with small Ambient parts.

With his ambition and desire for new and experimental musical directions, he shows his audience again and again how exciting minimal techno can be – so much more than just simple. Boris Brejcha is much more than just a minimal techno Artists. He is a Pinoeer! No kind of music could describe his style, so he decided to create his own genre.

✪ Mantra Collective & Jam Gallery Halloween ✪
As we creep out of winter and into spring and summer, there’s no better way to celebrate the season than a full-blown Halloween throwdown like no other at Jam Gallery on Saturday 29th of October with a world class lineup.
Come and enter the eerie gates of an abandoned underground circus where a foggy wasteland carnival turns into a party.

The other symbols in the game are as follows:
Like most betting games, the Shining Crown also has a profit multiplication level which can be activated after generating a certain, fixed profit amount. According to the rules, you need to guess the color of the selected card in order to double your winnings; if you fail – you lose the profits you’ve bet.

Entry updated 21 August 2012. Tagged: Publication.
US reprint Pulp magazine, 23 issues Spring 1950 to Spring 1955, the title changing after Spring 1951 to Fantastic Story Magazine; published by Best Books, a subsidiary of Standard Magazines. Sam Merwin Jr was editor until Fall 1951, being succeeded by Samuel Mines and then by Alexander Samalman for the last two issues.
Most of the reprints were from Startling Stories and Thrilling Wonder Stories; early issues carried a good deal of material from Hugo Gernsback's Wonder Stories. Fantastic Story Quarterly used a few original stories, including Gordon R Dickson's first, "Trespass!" (1950), written with Poul Anderson, and occasionally went outside the chain for reprints – e.g., publishing A E van Vogt's Slan (September-December 1940 Astounding; 1946; rev 1951) in the Summer 1952 issue. Most issues carried a complete novel. There was a Canadian edition of the first four numbers. [BS]

I don't know about you, but I've been getting exciting about the holidays. Today was finally cold enough that I broke out my new black winter jacket and absolutely love it...and bundling up in my red scarf :) I've been getting ideas for Christmas presents. So I have a great tip for getting gifts for people who either already have everything or usually end up buying it themselves before Christmas (note to husband)...Etsy.
Etsy is a super cool site where artists and craftsmen/women post their goods online for you to buy. You can find some awesome stuff there. I love jewlrey so it's a great place to find one of a kind necklaces, rings, earrings, etc. I've been recently looking there to find some options for wall art...we need something in our living room. You can look at stuff by colors, categories, by seller, or just search...for example try "library", "tree", or "snow". I've even found some good geeky stuff like clocks made from computer hard drives. And my favorite thing is that you can add an item as a favorite or a seller as a favorite so you can come back and look again. Very cool.
And as a shameless plug...I first heard of Etsy through my friend who sells home made buttons...her site: Becky's Buttons

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Have a Question?
Be the first to ask a question about this.


Today we are going to stretch the previous article on steganography...with some different concept..with some different tools in other OS like in linux..
their is an popular tool for the linux OS named STEGHIDE...
it also be available for windows to...
how to download this tool in windows and linux OS ??
press Ctr+Alt+T ,to open up your terminal window...now type
sudo aptitude install steghide
sudo apt-get install steghide
go to this link and download steghide .
It is in zip format just extract the file..
now here is the manual to use the steghide ..you can read it for your knowledge..
but i am not going to cover all the command described in below..
but mostly 80 % commands will be used here in the demonstration.
So lets start without wasting time...
actually steghide tool is used for hiding .txt/.pdf file into images of format JPEG, BMP, WAV and AU.
Actually freely said ..their is know restriction on hiding file type...but here i am going to use only .txt format .
the size of the cover file (image) must be graeter than the size of embed file(file to be hide).
Before we start the demonstration..you have to place your image ,where you have to hide your secret file ,in the desktop and change you directory to Desktop..it's not recommended but it will make easy to use.
So first step is to check the capacity of the image that how much data it can hide.
heck how much of data we can embed into the picture.
steghide info image.jpg
// in place of the image.png use the image name where you want to hide the data
create an txt file throught the terminal/commmand prompt
echo > file_name.txt “write your secret massage”
check what is the size of the file_name.txt..
du -b file_name.txt
output of this command shown in number which is the size of the txt file in byte.
now let start the encryption...
steghide embed -cf image.jpg -ef file_name.txt -sf text_hidden_img.jpg
now let understand what this command said..
embed – this is use for hiding the text in the image.
-cf – cover file mean where you have to hide your text file-format
-ef -embed file means which file you have to hide
-sf – it's an generated image where your text file is hidden.
Actually this one is not necessary but if you are checking how this tool work then it will be useful for understanding.
as you can see that an another named image is craeted in desktop with named.. secret_hide_img.jpg.
after the command executed it will ask for you to type your passphase...just type it.
HOW TO EXTRACT THE SECRET FILE FROM THE IMAGE
NOW HOW TO EXTRACT THE INFORMATION THROUGH THE ENCRYPTED IMAGE..
steghide extract -sf < text_hidden_img.jpg>
this will ask for the passphase...give it..
again ask for the is it file exits.?
it will reaveal your secret file.
But if you want to reaveal your secret file in different name..if you don't understand see the screenshot below.
steghide extract -sf text_hidden_img.jpg -xf reveal_secert_file.txt
and you see it will reveal your file with different name.
like here with name reavealed_secret.txt
instaed of this result if you want to know about the incrypted image ,information..
you will under stand what iw anna say...
here you can see in the screenshots that..that image capacity is given.. 1.4 kb and in the next screenshot...it just tell me about the embded file information that..it's size is 26 byte.
encryption : rijndael-128, cbc
//actually this is an default encryption..if you want to know more please read manual just below..
for this information you have to write the command...
steghide info <secret_hide_img.jpg>
after this it will ask that do you try to get embded file information.? just press 'y'.
tha's it .
here i wanna show some more thing that after embded file and before imbded file in image ..what it will change in image..
READ PREVIOUS ARTICLE ON STEGANOGRAPHY...
if you intrested more please read the manual...
steghide command [ arguments ]
Steghide is a steganography program that is able to hide
data in various kinds of image- and audio-files. The
color- respectivly sample-frequencies are not changed thus
making the embedding resistant against first-order statis
Features include the compression of the embedded data,
encryption of the embedded data and automatic integrity
checking using a checksum. The JPEG, BMP, WAV and AU file
formats are supported for use as cover file. There are no
restrictions on the format of the secret data.
Steghide uses a graph-theoretic approach to steganography.
You do not need to know anything about graph theory to use
steghide and you can safely skip the rest of this para
graph if you are not interested in the technical details.
The embedding algorithm roughly works as follows: At
first, the secret data is compressed and encrypted. Then a
sequence of postions of pixels in the cover file is cre
ated based on a pseudo-random number generator initialized
with the passphrase (the secret data will be embedded in
the pixels at these positions). Of these positions those
that do not need to be changed (because they already con
tain the correct value by chance) are sorted out. Then a
graph-theoretic matching algorithm finds pairs of posi
tions such that exchanging their values has the effect of
embedding the corresponding part of the secret data. If
the algorithm cannot find any more such pairs all
exchanges are actually performed. The pixels at the
remaining positions (the positions that are not part of
such a pair) are also modified to contain the embedded
data (but this is done by overwriting them, not by
exchanging them with other pixels). The fact that (most
of) the embedding is done by exchanging pixel values
implies that the first-order statistics (i.e. the number
of times a color occurs in the picture) is not changed.
For audio files the algorithm is the same, except that
audio samples are used instead of pixels.
The default encryption algorithm is Rijndael with a key
size of 128 bits (which is AES - the advanced encryption
standard) in the cipher block chaining mode. If you do not
trust this combination for whatever reason feel free to
choose another algorithm/mode combination (information
about all possible algorithms and modes is displayed by
the encinfo command). The checksum is calculated using
the CRC32 algorithm.
Display information about a cover or stego file.
Display a list of encryption algorithms and modes
that can be used. No arguments required.
Display short version information. No arguments
Display steghide's license. No arguments required.
Display a help screen. No arguments required.
You should use the embed command if you want to embed
secret data in a cover file. The following arguments can
be used with the embed command:
-ef, --embedfile filename
Specify the file that will be embedded (the file
that contains the secret message). Note that
steghide embeds the original file name in the stego
file. When extracting data (see below) the default
behaviour is to save the embedded file into the
current directory under its original name. If this
argument is omitted or filename is -, steghide will
read the secret data from standard input.
-cf, --coverfile filename
Specify the cover file that will be used to embed
data. The cover file must be in one of the follow
ing formats: AU, BMP, JPEG or WAV. The file-format
will be detected automatically based on header
information (the extension is not relevant). If
this argument is omitted or filename is -, steghide
will read the cover file from standard input.
-sf, --stegofile filename
Specify the name for the stego file that will be
created. If this argument is omitted when calling
steghide with the embed command, then the modifica
tions to embed the secret data will be made
directly to the cover file without saving it under
Specify the compression level. The compression
level can be any number in 1...9 where 1 means best
speed and 9 means best compression.
Do not compress the secret data before embedding
Do not embed a CRC32 checksum. You can use this if
the secret data already contains some type of
checksum or if you do not want to embed those extra
32 bits needed for the checksum.
Do not embed the file name of the secret file. If
this option is used, the extractor needs to specify
a filename to tell steghide where to write the
If you have received a file that contains a message that
has been embedded with steghide, use the extract command
to extract it. The following arguments can be used with
-sf, --stegofile filename
Specify the stego file (the file that contains
embedded data). If this argument is omitted or
filename is -, steghide will read a stego file from
-xf, --extractfile filename
Create a file with the name filename and write the
data that is embedded in the stego file to it. This
option overrides the filename that is embedded int
the stego file. If this argument is omitted, the
embedded data will be saved to the current direc
tory under its original name.
GETTING INFORMATION ABOUT A COVER/STEGO FILE
You can use the info command to get some information about
a cover or stego file (for example the capacity). You
might want to use this if you have received a file and you
are not sure if it contains an embedded message or if you
The following options can be used with all commands (where
it makes sense).
Use the string following this argument as the
passphrase. If your passphrase contains whitespace,
you have to enclose it in quotes, for example: -p
"a very long passphrase".
Display detailed information about the status of
the embedding or extracting process.
Supress information messages.
Always overwrite existing files.
FILE NAME OPTIONS
All file name arguments (-cf, -ef, -sf, -xf) also accept -
as a filename which makes steghide use standard input or
standard output (whichever makes sense). Omitting the cor
responding file name argument will have the same effect as
using - with two exceptions: If -sf is omitted for the
embed command, then the modifications will be done
directly in the cover file. If -xf is omitted for extrac
tion, then the embedded data will be saved under the file
name that is embedded in the stego file. So when you want
to be sure that standard input/output is used, use - as

"In photography there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality."
A vital force in the development of modern art in America, Alfred Stieglitz's significance lies as much in his work as an art dealer, exhibition organizer, publisher, and editor as it does in his career as a photographer. He is credited with spearheading the rise of modern photography in America in the early years of the twentieth century, publishing the periodical Camera Work (1903-17) and forming the exhibition society, the Photo-Secession. He also ran a series of influential galleries, starting with 291, which he used not only to exhibit photography, but also to introduce European modernist painters and sculptors to America and to foster America's own modernist figures - including his later wife, Georgia O'Keeffe. Insistent that photography warranted a place among the fine arts, Stieglitz's own work showed great technical mastery of tone and texture and reveled in exploring atmospherics. In later years, influenced in part by Cubism and other trends, he became interested in straight photography, favoring more clarity and less lush effects.

Winter, Fifth Avenue (1892)
Winter, Fifth Avenue shows the busy New York street in the midst of a snowstorm. Stieglitz stalked Fifth Avenue for three frigid hours waiting for the perfect moment. He had to wait for the ideal composition - unlike a painter, who could manufacture it. Trails in the snow lead the eye up this vertical composition to its focal point - a dark horse and carriage that is swallowed by the snowy atmosphere. The snow blurs the details of the urban surroundings, lending the photo an Impressionistic appearance. This depiction of man - crudely mechanized - and pitted against the violence of the natural world, shows Stieglitz's inheritance from nineteenth century Romanticism.
Photogravure - The Minneapolis Institute of Arts
Alfred Stieglitz was born in Hoboken, New Jersey, just before the end of the American Civil War. Born to German-Jewish immigrants, Edward Stieglitz and Hedwig Ann Werner, Alfred was the eldest of six children. In 1881, the Stieglitz family fled the East Coast and moved back to Germany, hopeful that the German school system would challenge young Alfred in the way America's had not. The following year, while enrolled at the Technische Hochschule in Berlin, Stieglitz was exposed to photography for the first time.
Although Stieglitz studied to be a mechanical engineer, he purchased his first camera in 1882 and shot vistas of the German countryside. Indulging his newfound appetite for photography, the self-taught artist practiced, researched, and theorized about this instant medium. Throughout the rest of the decade, Stieglitz published articles and photos in the British magazine Amateur Photographer. This earned him a reputation among the elite European photography circles. In 1890, he moved back to America to rejoin his family after the death of his sister Flora. There, he led the Pictorialist movement, which advocated the artistic legitimacy of photography.
After arriving in New York City, Stieglitz became the owner of the fledgling Photochrome Engraving Company. Soon he was made co-editor of The American Amateur Photographer, which solidified his position in the still-niche photography world.
The self-proclaimed champion of American photography, Stieglitz was in search of the best forum to present it to the public. Stieglitz concentrated all of his efforts into launching Camera Work magazine - the voice of the Photo-Secessionist movement. The Secessionists concentrated on the technical skill and creative possibilities of the photographer, rather than just the image itself. Upon the urging of friend and fellow photographer Edward Steichen, he opened an exhibition space called the Little Galleries of the Photo-Secession. It was the first of its kind to place paintings and photographs on the same aesthetic plane.
291, as the gallery became known, was the exhibition space for the artistic avant-garde. It exhibited Stieglitz's work and the art of other American and European modernists. Friends' work would hang beside pieces by Europe's biggest artistic titans like Pablo Picasso, Paul Cézanne, and Henri Matisse. A show at the gallery exposed artists and their works to influential people who wrote and spoke about contemporary art. Pieces there were seen by writers like William Carlos Williams, collectors like Leo Stein, and members of the social elite like Vanity Fair editor Frank Crowinshield.
Between 1922 and 1935, Stieglitz worked on his Equivalent series. Directing his camera to the sky, Stieglitz took photos of clouds, hoping the abstracted images would reflect his artistic intent. Cropped close, the images are experiments in shape and composition. Later Stieglitz opened the Intimate Gallery (1925-30) and An American Place (1930-46), both following in the footsteps of 291. An exhibition of Stieglitz's own work was hosted by the Cleveland Museum of Art in 1937.
Stieglitz and O'Keeffe
Stieglitz first saw Georgia O'Keeffe's artwork in 1916. Without permission or knowledge of the artist, he displayed her drawings on the walls of his gallery. When she objected, he merely stated, "You don't know what you've done in these pictures." This would be the starting point of their relationship.
The couple married in 1924, but their personal relationship began shortly after their first meeting. Stieglitz used his position as husband, gallery owner, and proponent of modernism to market O'Keeffe as the quintessential female artist of the era. In 1917, Stieglitz began work on the Georgia O'Keeffe - A Portrait series. Forty-five of the total 329 photographs depict O'Keeffe in the nude. In many of the photographs, Stieglitz crops her body, leaving just a naked torso or fetishized body parts. This series was O'Keeffe's unveiling to the public. She became famous for three reasons: her art, her husband's photographs of her, and his insistence that she was the painter of womanhood.
Stieglitz suffered a fatal stroke in the summer of 1946, while O'Keeffe was away on one of her long sojourns to the Southwest.
Alfred Stieglitz led the Pictorialist movement, which advocated the artistic legitimacy of photography in the United States. Without his influence, photographers like Ansel Adams and Edward Weston would never have been able to become household names. His own works defined the greater Pictorialist project and set a firm aesthetic example for his contemporaries, many of whom were exhibited in Camera Work magazine. Prior to his efforts, photographs were seen purely as historical records. He single-handedly popularized the medium and introduced America to European modernism with Gallery 291. Pablo Picasso, Auguste Rodin, Henri Matisse, and Paul Cézanne all received their American debuts at the gallery. He launched the career of his wife, Georgia O'Keeffe, and lauded her - however unfairly - as the greatest female artist of the twentieth century. He laid the foundation for the current proliferation of digital cameras. While nearly everyone is an amateur photographer today, few were at the fin de siecle, and Stieglitz was the leader of those few.

After a promising Week 1 victory over the Seattle Seahawks, the Los Angeles Rams have now dropped back-to-back games to fall to 1-2 early in this season. Sean McVay’s team was competitive in both of those contests, but what is slightly concerning has been the turnovers from quarterback Matthew Stafford.
While Stafford has completed 60% of his passes so far this season and has made some excellent plays, he has also thrown two interceptions in each of the Rams losses. This has been an issue for Stafford in the past, but McVay doesn’t feel all of these turnovers are on him and thinks Stafford has played well overall.
“I think Matthew’s done a really good job. I thought the first two games were really high-level ball,” the Rams coach said at a recent press conference. “I think we’ve had some unfortunate situations relative to the turnovers that, you’re talking about two out of those four plays are truly tip picks where he’s making the right decision, he’s going to the right read.
“The other one the other night was a miscommunication in protection. He’s trying to make a play,” McVay added. “He knows better than that to be able to kind of throw late over the middle and (Logan) Wilson ended up making a play. But overall, I think he’s throwing the ball with accuracy, anticipation and we’ve got to continue to do a good job of playing well around him. I can do some different things to help and that’ll always be the case, but I love the way Matthew’s played for us.”
As McVay said, two of those picks from Stafford were tipped where he made the right play, but still suffered an unfortunate outcome. This is the case for all quarterbacks, but there were also some mistakes on the part of Stafford that must be fixed and the Rams coach took some of the blame on that as well.
Considering the Rams remain without star receiver Cooper Kupp, Stafford has done well with Puka Nacua and Tutu Atwell each benefitting from the play of the Rams quarterback. Turnovers are always a concern and Stafford and the rest of the Rams need to make sure they are cutting down and not gifting the opposition these takeaways and great field position.
The margin for error for the Rams isn’t great and the team simply can not afford to turn the ball over. McVay and Stafford will undoubtedly look at what is happening and do everything possible to ensure they are limited.

This Template is useful to automate employees’ expense reimbursements. It can be used for all kinds of expenses: transportation, accommodation, travel, supplies, etc.
Advantages of automating this process:
- Firstly, it eliminates manual processes and time delays in expense processing.
- Secondly, it improves compliance to corporate reimbursement policies.
- It also reduces the entire reimbursement cycle time.
- It can be run from anywhere from a mobile device.
- Finally, no paperwork needed.
Expense Reimbursement workflow
In Flokzu you can adjust the workflow of the expense reimbursement process to meet your particular needs. This template already includes an initial definition, which will help you get started faster. The initial diagram in BPMN notation is:
The process form
As with the workflow, this template already includes the typical form fields of a reimbursement process:
- Employee Name
- Start Date
- End Date
- Total reimbursement claimed
Employees just complete the fields and attach receipts/invoices/tickets. When they create a new expense report, the information is stored in one place (named process instance). Employees can also add additional information in the Comments tab of the process instance.
The reviewer of the report can immediately approve it, reject it or request more information. He/she can specify the information missing by adding a comment to the process instance. Then the process instance returns to the Process Initiator (the employee who created the report in the first place). You can repeat the cycle if you need more information.
The system automatically notifies if the application was approved or rejected using email Tasks.
You can edit the workflow and make sure it enforces the expense reimbursement policies of the organization. For example, if expense reimbursements for more than $200 must go through the approval of a supervisor, the workflow could look like this:
In this example you can divide the flow if the expenses are greater than $200 using the following setting:
To learn more about defining the workflow based on field values, watch this video.
Save draft to make it easier for travelers
A typical use case would be:
- The user goes to lunch. When finished, starts the expense reimbursement process, and charges the cost of lunch to the expenses table.
- Save to Draft.
- Flokzu sends an email with a link to resume the reimbursement request at another time.
- The user at dinner accesses his email, clicks on the link, and adds the expense of the dinner to the same reimbursement request.
- Repeat the procedure as necessary.
- At the end of the trip, sends the request (finishes the draft).
- The request immediately starts the defined workflow.
Activate the process in your account
Finally, remember that this and all of our process templates have System Roles (All Users, Administrator, etc.) as assignees for each task. In addition, this video will quickly show you how to import and customize a process template
