This is Dennis and Robin. I asked them for a portrait when I met them in Handen yesterday, only to realise that I had already met and photographed Dennis before. So here are a few facts about his friend Robin.He is originally from Malmö. These days Robin lives at Spånga. He works a a bartender here and there. On his free time he plays soccer (wing back), in a korp league team called Last Minute United.

Artist statement:
Don’t use the pomegranate inhospitably, a stranger that has come so far to pay his respects to thee. Plant it against the side of thy house, nail it close to the wall. In this manner it thrives wonderfully with us, and flowers beautifully, and bears fruit this hot year. I have twenty-four on one tree... Doctor Fothergill says, of all trees this is most salutiferous to mankind.
—English Quaker Peter Collinson in a 1762 letter to botanist John Bartram of Philadelphia.
Grenade is the French word for pomegranate. Grenadine is a blood-red syrup originally made from pomegranate juice and sugar. Pomegranates are native to Iran and have been cultivated in Egypt since they were introduced by Hyksos invaders in the 1600s BCE. Spanish invaders brought pomegranate plants to “The New World” in the 1500s CE. Throughout human history and in nearly all religions, the pomegranate has been an important symbol of fertility and a vital medicinal food.

In the wake of the recent political transition in Myanmar, the country faces major challenges to accelerated agricultural development and economic growth. Many opportunities are also opening up. Trade with China has grown rapidly in the past five years and other new markets may soon open. These challenges as well as the country's accomplishments and development goals were discussed at this seminar hosted by IFPRI in Washington, DC on August 30, 2016.

Statement of Significance
Description of Historic Place
The Knowles Residence is a two-storey plus basement wood-frame residence that combines picturesque European manor house elements with an Arts and Crafts influence. Its distinctive features include a tall corner tower with a bellcast hip roof.
Heritage Value
Built in 1909, this house is valued for its unique architecture. Designed with strong influences from the Arts and Crafts style, its massing and unusual detailing distinguish it from other Arts and Crafts houses built in North Vancouver before World War 1. The massive corner turret creates a distinct picturesque quality, and its unique style and imposing silhouette contribute to its prominence in the neighbourhood. William Knowles, a contractor, was the first owner and resident. A recent emigrant from England, Knowles (1879-1947) lived only briefly in this house but remained in North Vancouver, working as a carpenter and builder until his death.
The house reflects the desire for grand and personalized homes of the people moving into North Vancouver prior to the First World War. This was a time of faith in continued prosperity, based on speculative growth, and the scale of house construction reflected this sense of unlimited optimism. The boom period was short-lived, and housing after the end of World War One was often built at a much smaller scale, demonstrating the strictures of the postwar economy and resultant social changes such as the move away from domestic servants. One of the earliest houses in this neighbourhood, the Knowles Residence is also one of the largest.

Sections you would find there
A #statement of #CashFlow comes with three mandatory sections. We can call them as the primary section. There is a fourth section too, but it is of optional nature, and you can leave it blank. Leaving the fourth section blank is not going to put any impact on the facts mentioned in the remaining report.
The statue at left by Pablo Machioli was placed at the site of the memorial to Robert E Lee and Stonewall Jackson in Baltimore's Wyman Park as a protest statement, and subsequently suffered significant damage that the police say was the result of vandalism. I've added to this image a depiction of two Baltimore Ravens players that were kneeling during the playing of the National Anthem at last Sunday's football game. The statue of Lee and Jackson was removed from its pedestal and was put into storage by the City some weeks ago.

The IAEA Event: Net Zero Needs Nuclear Power will highlight the crucial role of nuclear power as part of the energy mix. The Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Mr Rafael Mariano Grossi will announce the ‘IAEA Statement on Nuclear Power’ supported by 40 countries, both those already operating nuclear power plants and newcomers. Together these countries acknowledge that all available low-carbon technologies, including nuclear power, should be recognized, and actively supported. The Statement underlines the benefits of nuclear power, including that nuclear power plants produce no harmful greenhouse gas emissions; that nuclear energy contributes to energy security and the stability of power grids; and that it mitigates air pollution at a local level.

Shadows of Hope – Artist’s Statement
Art awakens and opens our eyes. Art can act as an oracle, a prophet, or simply a provocateur. Tapping into that power is at the core of what I wanted to accomplish when I traveled to Cambodia in January of 2020. However, I didn’t want to just awaken viewers to a problem, but to offer hope as well. To accomplish this dual goal, I worked with young women who have been rescued from sex trafficking to create life-sized murals using the cyanotype photographic process. These thematic portraits of victims of human trafficking were created with their assistance and active participation. It was truly a group effort.
So, why Cambodia? Though child sex trafficking is a problem around the world, it is most prevalent in Southeast Asia. It is hard to fathom, but a 2018 report from the Global Slavery Index estimates that 261,000 people in Cambodia live in conditions of modern slavery. Of those, the number who are minors involved in sex trafficking number in the thousands. Since 2005 I have photographed for Agape International Missions (AIM) in Cambodia and financially supported their work. AIM programs prevent sex trafficking, as they simultaneously work to rescue, restore and reintegrate survivors of this horrible crime.
Though I have photographed for AIM in the past, it has been over a decade since I traveled to Cambodia. But, in the fall of 2019, God gave me a vision of creating giant murals with the assistance of the young women that AIM has rescued from human trafficking. Starting in December, I began praying and sketching what the murals might look like. Many of the murals are inspired by the book of Psalms, which often speaks of rescue and restoration, something these young women are now experiencing.
The process I utilized is called the cyanotype or blue printing process. It was invented in 1842, just three years after the announcement of photography to the world. Though cyanotype chemistry (ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide) is most commonly coated on watercolor or printmaking papers, it also works quite well when coated on fabric, which is what I chose to work with. The fabric was precoated in California and packed into a suitcase for the long plane flight to Cambodia.
After days of preparation and teaching my collaborators the process, we began to create the large murals. I would first meet with one of several rotating groups of approximately a
dozen young women, explain the concept for the mural and show them the sketch. After inquiring about who felt inspired by the concept and wanted to participate, subject(s) were selected, and the rest of the group was given responsibilities in creating the mural. Assignments might include spreading stars, plants (or other props), moving the tent from over the mural, etc. While I was coordinating these efforts, an assistant was working in a darkened room to iron the creases out of the fabric. When the fabric was done, I would run down the hallway and out the front door. My collaborators would help me quickly spread out the fabric on a large board and then the subject(s) would take their position and props would be quickly added. Finally, the tent would be removed so that the fabric could be exposed for ten minutes in direct sunlight (twenty minutes on an overcast day). During this time, the subject(s) could not move, even though it was usually very hot. In many of the murals you will observe staining around the subject. This is a result of perspiration reacting with the cyanotype chemistry. At the end of the exposure, the tent would be placed over the fabric, the props removed and then the fabric would be processed in buckets of water.
