The Denver Art Museum is displaying an exhibition on the ancient Tiwanaku civilization of Bolivia. The exhibition brings together the latest research on this important pre-Columbian empire, which lasted from around 200-1100 AD and had a population of up to 40,000 people. The exhibition aims to educate visitors who are unfamiliar with Tiwanaku, as not much is widely known about this advanced civilization outside of scholarly circles. Though focused on academic research more than blockbuster attendance, the exhibition further solidifies the museum's leadership in displaying art of the Americas.

These are the Powerpoint slides converted from Keynote used during a workshop conducted by myself in partnership with the US Embassy Belgrade and IN. #Newmediabelgrade
join us on twitter in the conversation to explore New Media and Practical Skills
Workshop Purpose: This year will be tough for many media professionals. Completion of privatization and withdrawal of the state from media ownership of all media outlets in Serbia in mid-2015 will result in the bankruptcy and closure of many small media organizations that fail to find buyers. The goal of the seminar is to assist Serbian media professionals (reporters, photographers, cameramen, web editors) to shift focus to online media, which can provide low- or no-cost platforms for professional journalists. The workshop will teach local participants to replicate successful American new media/online models.
Workshop Mission: To help journalists explore the latest tools and technologies of new media. To reflect on their own role as a journalist and storyteller and what their personal brand is becoming. To understand more completely social media trends such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and others - and their impact on traditional news and your professional career. To share, explore and put into practice the most innovative and functional social media tools to deliver better news and public affairs to the people of Serbia and to create sustainable incomes for individual journalists.
Workshop key questions and objectives: What do you want to learn? What do you want to have happen? Who is responsible for the learning to occur? How can you make a difference?
Learning Outcomes: During these workshops, journalists should actively learn how to use online media, Internet and its resources for reporting. They should explore the power of personal and professional branding. We also will look at financial sustainability of online media, particularly news web portals, and the future of journalism.

6. As an artist, Cooke was
known for a distinct
visual style, evocative of
a different era -- as seen in
comics like “New Frontier,” set during
the 1950s -- yet still uniquely modern.
His work varied from the retro super-
heroes of “New Frontier” to the hard-
boiled crime fiction of his adaptations
of Richard Stark’s “Parker” novels and
more esoteric projects like the recent
Vertigo series “The Twilight Children.”
Cooke made his comic book debut in
1985 with DC Comics’ “Talent Show-
case” #19, but it was another 15 years
before he began to receive industry
attention with the one-shot “Batman:
Ego,” which he wrote and drew. In the
interim, he worked as a storyboard
artist for multiple DC-based animated
series, including “Batman Beyond,”
“Superman” and “The New Batman
Adventures.” n 2001, Cooke teamed
with writer Ed Brubaker for a stylish
update of “Catwoman,” with Cooke
illustrating the first four issues and
redesigning the famous character,
creating a look that defined Selina Kyle
for years to come. He then wrote and
drew the original graphic novel “Seli-
na’s Big Score,” a prequel to his run on
“Catwoman.”
Cooke also worked for Marvel during
that period, contributing to the ac-
claimed “X-Force” run by Peter Milli-
gan and Mike Allred with interior art
on “X-Force” #124 and the “Wolver-
ine/Doop” miniseries. He also wrote
and illustrated two issues of anthology
series “Spider-Man’s Tangled Web.”
However, 2004’s “DC: The New Fron-
tier” likely stands as the most signifi-
cant single work of Cooke’s career. He
wrote and illustrated the nearly 400-
page story, which starred many of DC’s
iconic heroes.The miniseries earned
multiple Eisner and Harvey awards
and inspired an animated adapta-
tion, released in 2008. In 2007, Cooke
helmed a DC Comics revival of “The

7. In the late ’60s, the artist Stephen
Kaltenbach spent three manic, productive
years in New York City before decamping to
California, where he still lives and operates
as a “regional artist” of sorts. In his three
New York years, Kaltenbach produced a
diverse body of work that traced the con-
tours of the city’s emerging Conceptual and
Post-Minimalist art movements, all carried
out with an enigmatic prankster spirit that
has continued to govern his practice. Un-
til June 18, Marlborough Chelsea’s small
Viewing Room sub-gallery is exhibiting a
mini-retrospective from the artist, focusing
primarily on the work he made during his
concentrated time in the city. The day be-
fore the show’s opening, Kaltenbach gave
me a tour of the exhibition alongside the
space’s director, the artist and actor Leo
Fitzpatrick.
“I had a number of issues when I
came to New York that I wanted to investi-
gate, one them was Minimalism, and I had
been doing simple objects pretty much like
Donald Judd and felt that I could go a lot
further than that,” Kaltenbach told me. A
text written by the artist called A Short Ar-
ticle on Expression 1969–2016 could be a
seen as a centerpiece of the exhibition. The
writing contains a series of abstract proc-
lamations and questions, things like “the
manipulation of perception is a valid goal
of art expression” and “is it important for
an artist to be able to distinguish between
manipulation of perception as a means for
art expression from its manipulation as a
result?”
A sprightly 76, Kaltenbach has short
hair and a gray beard. He wore a light-
blue hoodie with a shirt under it that was
an even lighter shade of blue. He took me
through a thorny, conceptual body of work
that at times yielded more questions than
answers. At one point he told me that he
had converted to Christianity from Bud-
dhism, telling me it was “one of the most
counterintuitive things that can happen to
a person. I was a Zen Buddhist because I
didn’t have to deal with the God reality at
all, that’s not what they do. So, I’m in the
position of saying things that people don’t
believe and I think it’s a logical extension of
my work.” I asked him if he expected people
to take him at face value. “Some do, some
don’t. It’s all interesting to me,” he said. “I’m
not your boss, you are.”

JACKSONVILLE — In
a cinder block room devoid
of windows and sunshine, six
women sat behind stacked
computer monitors Friday. The
only peak into life outside of
the room, known as “the pit,”
comes from a wall-mounted
screen show- ing a live feed
from an external camera.
“Calhoun County 911,” a
trainee said, adjusting her head-
set with legs crossed in a red-
and-black swivel chair.
Each day, around the clock, at
least three emergency call-tak-
ers remain on standby to an-
swer all calls to 911 in Calhoun
County, Kevin Jenkins, the di-
rector of Calhoun County 911,
said Friday sitting in his office
on Francis Street West.
Working as a 911 operator
and dispatcher has become an
extremely specialized profes-
sion, Jenkins said. Since 2014,
Calhoun County 911 has been
slowly implementing a new
system that increases informa-
tion sharing between operators
and departments. Through this
system, operators are able to im-
mediately put the caller’s infor-
mation out for all officers to see.
“The legacy system was built
on less accessibility,” Jen- kins
said. “Now, when some- one
calls we immediately see their
number and address, and first
responders can access that in-
formation on a laptop or mobile
device. We’ve been able to tear
down this wall of information
gathering and immediately push
that info out.”
Police in Anniston and fire-
fighters there and in Jackson-
ville all use Calhoun County
911 for their dispatching needs,
Jenkins said.

JACKSONVILLE — The city has a
plan to fill the sinkholes that have de-
stroyed a section of the Chief Ladiga
Trail, but not in the way recommended
by experts.
The City Council on Monday ap-
proved a project to excavate and sys-
tematically use rock, clay and synthetic
material to fill collapsed portions along
the closed-off trail near Warren Drive
in Weaver.
Excavating and backfilling was in-
cluded as an option in a report the city
received earlier this month from Build-
ing & Earth Sciences, the Birming-
ham-based geological engineering firm
the city committed $8,000 to for an
analysis of the site and a recommenda-
tion for restoring it. Of the four options
listed in Building & Earth’s report, the
firm reported “the most feasible” was a
concrete-filling process — a job it esti-
mated would cost the city upwards of
$100,000 to contract out.
City officials on Monday expressed
concerns about spending that, consid-
ering the report’s insistence that no
option guaranteed the sinkholes would
not sink again. By keeping its labor
in-house, and with the county lend-
ing workers and equipment, the city is
planning to spend $45,000 on the proj-
ect approved during the City Council
meeting.
Spending less on a project that might
not work was better than spending
more, officials reasoned. They didn’t
dismiss the possibility of the con-
crete-filling job if the excavating and
filling failed.
“This is a much more cost effective
approach, if it works,” said Mark Ste-
phens, Jacksonville’s planning and
development manager and supervisor
over the project. “I think this is the best
use of taxpayer money to try to get this
fixed.”
He anticipates work will begin next
week and the sinkholes will be filled by
the start of May. From there, the trail
will have to be repaved. And that, Ste-
phens explained, could be an extensive
project in itself: He said paving could
stretch from the site of the sinkholes
back a half-mile to Warren Drive,
where track hoes and dump trucks and
other heavy equipment will enter the
trail.
Repaving almost 3,000 feet of trail,
Stephens said, could cost another
$45,000. Building & Earth’s $100,000-
plus recommendation did not account
for paving.
“It’d be great if we don’t have to redo
it all,” Mayor Johnny Smith said. “But
I’d be surprised if we don’t.”
Building & Earth’s report raises ques-
tions about the feasibility of excavating
and filling the sinkholes. It indicates
that excavating could cause a deeper
sink, and that the trail’s narrow path
and side slopes

NEWYORK — Dear Wall Street:
Stop complaining about your pay.
Five years after Occupy Wall
Street protesters took over Zuccot-
ti Park in downtown Manhattan,
spawning a national discussion
about the divide between America’s
highest and lowest earners, the pay
gap has only gotten wider. Now,
even as bankers bemoan their de-
clining bonuses and job prospects,
it’s helping fuel the campaigns of
Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders.
The spread is even more pro-
nounced during the past 25 years.
When adjusted for inflation, wages
for investment bankers and securi-
ties-industry employees, including
salary and bonuses, increased 117
percent from 1990 through 2014,
according to U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics data. During the same pe-
riod, wages for all other industries
rose 21 percent, to $51,029 in 2014,
about one-fifth of the $264,357 that
bankersandbrokersearnedthatyear.
Presidential candidates have
been quick to capitalize on the
gap. Front-runners for both parties
— Democrat Hillary Clinton and
Trump, the billionaire Republican
— have targeted a law that allows
financial managers to have their in-
come taxed at a lower rate. Sanders,
a Vermont senator, has proposed
taxing Wall Street speculators to
pay for his proposal to make public
colleges free. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz
has mocked Manhattan money and
said he’d let big banks go bankrupt.

Alpacas get annual trim ahead of
Alabama heat
Hershey the alpaca gets his hair cut
just once a year. Monday was the big
day for Hershey and the rest of his
kind in Saks.
“This is only their second haircut,”
Debbi Merrill, his owner, said that
morn- ing at her farm, as the nervous
alpaca’s back legs were tied to a fence
post, his front to a tractor.
Pete Connelly, who owns a
shearing service based in Mon-
tana, turned on his electric shears
and went to work, removing the al-
paca’s fleece in less than five minutes.
It came off like a thick brown blanket,
as Hershey squealed in protest, reveal-
ing the skinny animal beneath.
Merrill’s alpacas — all 15 of them —
were shorn Monday of the valuable
fiber they grow all year. Judging by
their reactions, it’s not a particularly
pleasant experience for the animals,
but Merrill and her husband say a
few moments of fear probably beat
an entire Alabama summer cloaked in
thick fleece.
Peggy Gamblin watched as Connelly
and his crew sheared through the rest
of Merrill’s herd with practiced effi-
ciency. The remaining alpacas seemed
as happy about it as Hershey was.
“It’s a kind of panic sound,” Gamblin,
who keeps 60 alpacas at her farm near
Glencoe, said of the squeals. “They
think something’s happening to them.
They have this done every year, but
they don’t like it.”

As the news rippled across the web
last week that a Long Island student
had won admission to all eight Ivy
League universities, thousands of
peo- ple reacted with messages of
praise.
But when Peter Kang, a high school
senior in Chantilly, Va., saw a New
York Times article last week about
the student, Augusta Uwamanzu-
Nna, on his Facebook feed, he grum-
bled.
“This is exactly what is driving
down college acceptance rates and
making university that much hard-
er to get into,” he wrote on the site,
setting off a lively discussion in the
comment thread.
The crux of Kang’s complaint, one
shared by many other students, is
that he and his peers are applying to
too many colleges, driving down ad-
mission rates and elevating the pres-
tige of selective universities, which
leads more students to apply.
“It just seems like a vicious cycle,”
said Kang, 17.
Kang blamed the Common Appli-
cation, the standardized form that
has risen in popularity and is now
accepted by more than 600 colleges,
including all the Ivy League univer-
sities. The ease of using the form has
led many students to decide almost
on a whim to add one, two or even 10
more universities to their list.
Despite his critique of Common
Application, Kang said he, too,
chose to “blast send” his applica-
tions. He felt as if he had to.

Another Culture
Louisiana Tech University has an Islamic center right on the campus. Many
students feel that they do not know much about the religion. “As a Jewish person, I know
that many people don’t take the time to understand other cultures,” said D’nyelle Katz.
“It is important to be knowledgeable about other cultures and religions, rather than
maintain ignorance.” Katz explained that she feels Muslims are often misunderstood and
that students should take time to learn about them, especially since many students pass
the Islamic center daily.
Muslim Americans face a lot of prejudices, especially since recent media
coverage has portrayed them negatively. “Once, I was in the Bossier Mall and, long story
short, an officer illegally detained me, violated my rights, and insulted me several times,
all because someone was offended by my niqab,” said Fatima Rutledge, a 22 year old
Muslim woman. “I encounter prejudices daily but I think it's because people are so
misinformed about Islam.”
“There are many misconceptions that I'd like to clear up,” said Rutledge. “Arabs
and Muslims are different things. So many people think they're the same. Arabs come
from the Middle East. It's an ethnicity. Muslims are people in Islam, which is the
equivalent to Christians in Christianity,” she explained. “Muslims do not hate people of
9
11. other religions,” she said. She explained that as in every religion, there are some that
would be considered radical, but for the most part Muslims are an exceptionally loving
group of people.
Rutledge spoke about another common misconception, saying, “Our religion does
not really promote male superiority. Women have a lot of strength via Islam.” Rutledge
explained that she never has to work if she does not want to and that her husband must
support her in any education she wishes to pursue.
Many people do not understand that Muslims and Christians believe in the same
God, they just refer to Him by different names. Muslims refer to Him as Allah. “Maybe
the biggest misperception that people have, I think, is that we believe in a different God
than Christians,” Rutledge said. Muslims do have different views on Jesus Christ,
however. While Christians believe Christ is the son of God, Muslims believe he was only
prophet.
said that she believes the biggest misconception of Islam is that it isAreej Jordan
a “false religion.” “I challenge anyone to read the Quran, but I must warn you, your life
will never be the same.”
Rutledge then began to explain some of Muslim’s practices. “As far as daily
routines, we pray 5 times a day: Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha.” Rutledge also
mentioned a couple of optional prayers. “For the mandatory prayers we recite, from
memory, Al Fatihah Sura, first sura of the Qur'an, and then we recite another sura during
10
12. the prayer.” Rutledge said that while reading the Qur’an daily is not mandatory, it is
recommended. She explained that when the Qur’an is recited, it is done so like a song.
“One should attend the Mosque for prayer (salat) at least once a day, Fajr or Isha
being the most important” Rutledge said. “Women and children are an exception to this.
Women may pray at home but if they find more peace in the Mosque, they should pray in
the Mosque.” She discussed the Jumaya, or similar to Christian’s church days. On this
day, Fridays, they go to the Mosque for prayer and to listen to the Sheikh, which
Rutledge compared to a preacher.
Rutledge then went on to discuss the clothing requirements of the religion. One of
the most commonly recognized garments worn by Muslim women is the hijab. “The hijab
is the head covering that leaves the face open. Also, we are commanded to wear clothes
that are modest which is why we wear abaya, which is a robe or dress,” she said. “Men
should always dress modestly as well… not quite as extreme as women but it is stated
that men should always be covered and in less form fitting clothing and if a man can
grow a beard, he should.” She also spoke about the “niqab” which is the head covering
that only exposes the eyes. She explained that the niqab is not a mandatory, but can a
woman can chose to wear it “for Allah—modesty, or to cover for only your husband to
see.”
Most importantly Rutledge wanted to make it clear that Islam is not what people
believe it to be. “ Islam is about tolerance, respect, love, and compassion,” she said.
11
13. “Extremist groups and people that do evil deeds are not really Muslim. If they were, they
would fear the results of their actions,” she said, touching on recent events in our country.
“Islam calls to love, not hate.”
