border with Sierra Leone. He was admitted as Counsellor at Law and member of the Supreme Court Bar in 1914 and also served as professor of law at Liberia College the same year. Karnga held the position of Acting Attorney General from 1921 to 1922, and as Assistant Secretary of State from 1922 to 1923. He later joined the cabinet of President C. D. B. King where he served as Postmaster General of Liberia until 1926. In 1928, President King appointed Karnga to the bench of the Supreme Court as an Associate Justice. He held the position until 1933 when he stepped down. During the period from 1930 to 1934, Karnga served for a time as Secretary of the True Whig Party. In his later years, Karnga held several minor governmental posts. In 1940, he was appointed to an Import-Export Corporation Board to assist in controlling Liberia’s wartime trade. In 1947, he was appointed to a commission to expropriate land for future sites of the capitol and University of Liberia, as part of the centennial activities. Karnga’s last major activity was the annual Independence Day address on Liberia’s centennial as a republic. His selection as speaker was in part due to Karnga being a well-known writer and historian. The selection also signified the full equality and acceptance of Liberian settlers, which had not been accorded to Congo immigrants and their offspring. On November 22, 1952, Abayomi Wilfrid Karnga died in Monrovia. Writings Abayomi Wilfrid Karnga wrote Liberian history for a personal conviction. In the preface of an earlier work, he wrote that Liberia’s national ideals could not be implanted in the minds and hearts of all of its citizens by the constant "inculcation" into them of the thoughts and customs of other peoples to the sad neglect of their own. He stated that Liberia’s governing people, owed to themselves the duty to know themselves, and to have a thorough knowledge of the customs and methods of government which long existed among their forefathers. | the Mbamba region. His grandmother, Kambi, also from the Mbamba region, held the title Mfumu Ankento (Queen of Solongo kia Mbamba). In 1888, the Congo Free State was established by Henry Morton Stanley under the leadership of King Leopold II of Belgium. Many recaptive Africans felt it safe to return home. Karnga’s father, Orangge, decided to visit the Congo, the country of his birth. Karnga wrote about the trip saying that in the year 1888, when he was a little boy, his father took him on a visit to the Congo. Karnga’s father also took his wife Sarah, and daughter Elizabeth along. The family embarked from Monrovia on the steam ship Ambriz, a Belgian merchant ship, which took one month on the voyage to get to Boma. Karnga met his grandmother, Kambi who was still alive. The family intended to remain in the Congo, but due to Karnga’s serious illness a few months after their arrival, a decision was made to return to Liberia. Orangge secured tickets for his family to return home on the British merchant ship Benue after being in the Congo for a year. The ship was quarantined in Freetown and not permitted to land in Liberia. Unfortunately, Elizabeth died on the way. Karnga’s mother Sarah died immediately upon landing in Freetown, and was buried at Kissi. In 1989, after being in Freetown for a month, Karnga and Orangge returned to Liberia on the steam ship Biafra. On his return to Tallah, Karnga entered the St John’s Protestant Episcopal Mission School located in the nearby town of Robertsport. Upon completion of his studies there, he entered the Liberia College in the capitol city of Monrovia. Among Karnga’s classmates who graduated with him in 1903 were Edwin J Barclay, later President of Liberia, and Louis A. Grimes, later Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Liberia Marriage and family Karnga married Isabella Hodge, a Liberian from Bigtown, Cape Palmas, Maryland County on June 15, 1912.

It was proclaimed as a State Route because, at the time, it was the most convenient route for many users.

The Overflow, as it was named, spanned at its peak. It is still a substantial property, known as "The Overflow 1895". The first school in Coulson, then known as Teviotville, opened in 1881, also indicating closer settlement. The first pastoral run in the Boonah district was taken up in 1844. From 1868 the large pastoral runs were subdivided and the settlement that became Boonah grew rapidly as new settlers moved in. Land was cleared and farms established in several areas around Boonah. To the east this development went as far as the eastern boundary of the Fassifern pastoral run. Part of this development included a road to service the farms. The first creamery in Boonah was built about 1894. The Fassifern pastoral run was established in 1846. In 1877, of land was resumed from Fassifern to establish smaller farms. The first school in the Fassifern area was opened in 1879. Templin was settled by German immigrants in the late 1800s. By 1890 sufficient development of small farms had occurred between Fassifern and Boonah that a new town was established. This became the town of Kalbar. Early roads were cut to enable wheeled vehicle access to the pastoral runs and large freehold properties. As smaller farms were developed the roads were improved and extended until the major commercial centres were linked. When the Wyaralong Dam was built in 2010 |

how it works". It may also explain the perception that knowledge in psychology is simple or obvious. The illusion is related to the Dunning–Kruger effect. The more highly people rate their knowledge, the greater the strength of the illusion. However, the IOED's effect (overestimation of knowledge) applies to almost everyone, whereas the Dunning–Kruger effect (overestimation of competence) only applies to those of low to moderate competence. The degree to which people overestimate their knowledge is higher when knowing about the topic is perceived as socially desirable.

Origin The IOED was coined by Yale reasearchers Leonid Rozenblit and Frank Keil in 2002. In a experiment they conducted with 16 Yale undergraduate students, they asked them to rate their understanding of devices and simple items. They were then asked to generate a detailed explanation of how they worked and then rerate their understanding of their understanding of that item. Consistently, ratings were lower after generating an explanation, suggesting they then began to understand that they lacked understanding of that item after attempting to explain. In their paper, The Misunderstood Limits of Folk Science: an Illusion of Explanatory Depth, Rozenblit and Keil concluded that having to explain basic concepts or mechanisms, confronts people with the reality that they may |

is a former palace in the Alhambra, the historic citadel of Granada, Spain. It is the oldest palace in the Alhambra for which any remains have been found. It was built in the reign of the Nasrid ruler Muhammad II. After the conquest of Granada in 1492 it became the residence of the Count of Tendilla, the governor of the Alhambra, until it was confiscated by Philip V in 1717 and subsequently demolished. After excavations in the 20th century, a part of the palace's foundations are visible today in the Partal Gardens. History The palace's construction was traditionally attributed to Yusuf III (r. 1408–1417) – hence one of its names – but more current scholarship attributes its creation to the reign of Muhammad II (r. 1273–1302), with Yusuf III having most likely renovated it during his reign. The palace may correspond to what was called the Dār al-Kubrā (), the official palace of the sultan. After the end of the Reconquista and the departure of the Nasrids in 1492, the palace became the official residence of the mayor (alcaide) of the Alhambra, the Count of Tendilla (later also Marquis of Mondéjar), the first of whom was Iñigo López de Mondoza y Quiñones (d. 1515). Hieronymus Münzer, a European traveler who visited the city in the 1490s shortly after the conquest, described the palace as being the most impressive of all the palaces in the Alhambra. The Tendilla-Mondéjar family remained governors until 1717, when Philip V dismissed José de Mendoza Ibáñez de Segovia (d. 1734), the Marquis of Mondéjar (heir to the Count of Tendilla), from this position and suppressed the office of the mayor. This was done as punishment for Marquis siding against the Bourbons during the War of the Spanish Succession. Philip confiscated the Marquis's properties in the Alhambra, including the palace.

The Tendilla-Mondéjar family remained governors until 1717, when Philip V dismissed José de Mendoza Ibáñez de Segovia (d. 1734), the Marquis of Mondéjar (heir to the Count of Tendilla), from this position and suppressed the office of the mayor. This was done as punishment for Marquis siding against the Bourbons during the War of the Spanish Succession. Philip confiscated the Marquis's properties in the Alhambra, including the palace. As the palace was in a poor state of repair and he could no longer use it, the Marquis demolished it in 1718 or between 1734 and 1735. Some of the palace's pieces were sold off afterward and are found in private collections today. The remains of the palace were excavated in 1924 by Leopoldo Torres Balbás. The site was integrated into a zone of landscaped gardens, the Partal Gardens, dating to the time of Gómez-Moreno (1910s-1920s) and to other landscaping carried out in the 1930s. The remains of the palace underwent a more thorough archeological investigation by Antonio Almagro Gorbea and Antonio Orihuela Uzal between 2001 and 2004. About one third of the original palace, still buried under the higher ground to the south, remains undocumented. Description The form of the palace follows the same model as the later Comares and Partal palaces. It consisted of a structure centered on a long rectangular courtyard with a long water basin along its middle. The basin was large enough to act as a reflective pool and it highlighted the main central axis of the building. Two smaller pools were located along at both ends of the courtyard's short axis. At the north end of the building's main axis was a tower structure or a domed hall, which may have had windows offering views onto the gardens to the north, much like the miradors in other Nasrid palaces. The hall was probably preceded by a portico, and a similar structure may have existed at the south end of the courtyard. The hall was flanked by two side small chambers and, beyond these, two more square chambers that may have also been domed. By comparing this layout with the arrangement of chambers in the Alhambra's Mexuar, scholar Felix Arnold has theorized that the western chamber was used as the sultan's dressing room while the eastern chamber served as a treasury. He also notes the similarity between this palace and the Cuarto Real palace and the Alcázar Genil in Granada, |

Besansky completed her Bachelor of Arts degree at Oberlin College in 1982 where she was also elected to Phi Beta Kappa. Following her undergraduate degree, Besansky accepted a technician position in a research laboratory at the National Institutes of Health. Besansky eventually returned to school where she completed her Master's degree and Master of Philosophy in Genetics at Yale University in 1987. She remained at Yale for her PhD before completing her postdoctoral research fellowship at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Career Besansky continued to work with the CDC as a scientist following her fellowship while simultaneously maintaining an adjunct assistant professor position at the University of Notre Dame. She was then promoted to the rank of associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences until 2002. While in this role, Besansky collaborated with her husband Frank H. Collins to genetically engineer Anopheles gambiae as a response to Malaria. She focused on comparing the DNA from various gambiae populations in West Africa to determine whether they were interbreeding.

She focused on comparing the DNA from various gambiae populations in West Africa to determine whether they were interbreeding. Besansky was then encouraged by Harvard University professor William Gelbart to write a report proposing the sequencing of a cluster of eight Anopheles malaria vectors, including multiple An. gambiae complex members. This resulted in funding for a pilot genome-sequencing project focusing on An. gambiae Mopti (M) and Savanna (S). In 2005, Besansky was recognized by the American Association for the Advancement of Science for making "significant contributions to understanding the molecular, population and evolutionary biology of Anopheline mosquitoes, major vectors of malaria in Africa." Once the results of her genome-sequencing project were published in 2010, Besansky was approved to start a cluster project that was upgraded to include 16 Anopheles species. Her original pilot project's genomic analysis revealed that M and S varieties of the Anopholes gambiae species were evolving into two distinct species. At the same time, she was appointed the Rev. John Cardinal O’Hara, C.S.C. Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Notre Dame. In 2014, Besansky's second cluster project published the results of their |
against Denver and, though their offense faltered in the second game, the Fighting Sioux were too much for the Pioneers to handle. Before the next round began, however, Goehring was diagnosed with a concussion and the team had to rely on Andy Kollar to take them the rest of the way. The sophomore held the fort and allowed North Dakota's offense to carry the team to victory, including a win over top-ranked Wisconsin in the WCHA championship game. NCAA tournament North Dakota moved up to #2 in the polls but still remained behind Wisconsin. While that left the team as the #2 western seed, it did provide UND with a buy into the second round of the tournament. While Goehring was still sidelined, North Dakota received a gift when the lowest-seeded team, Niagara, pulled off an upset in the first round. UND dominated in the first and third periods to end their postseason losing streak and propel themselves into the Frozen Four. Despite Kollar's performance in Goehring's absence, as soon as their primary starter was cleared to play, head coach Dean Blais put Goehring back in net. Any worries about the move were banished in the national semifinal when Goehring earned his 8th shutout of the season, defeating defending champion Maine in the process. The win sent UND to the championship game with just Boston College remaining in their way. The two teams were evenly matched in the first period, with both scoring 1 goal on 13 shots. BC got a lead in the second period but afterwards the team started playing a more defensive style. Lee Goren tied the game early in the third period and both teams struggled to find chances thereafter. with less than 6 minutes left in regulation, Goren assisted on Jason Ulmer's go-ahead marker and then potted an empty net goal to seal the match and give North Dakota its seventh national championship.

protean nature of the subaltern in Northeast India." Andrew J. Nathan writes in a capsule review for Foreign Affairs, "Baruah's intimate history and ethnography shows how neglect, corruption, uneven development, and repression - and recently the rise of Hindu nationalism at the federal level - have intensified the Northeast's alienation from the rest of the country." Ashutosh Varshney writes in Perspectives on Politics, "his principal argument is that, despite regular elections, the region has mostly seen a painful face of Indian democracy - primarily because Delhi has made democracy subservient to national security, generating huge deficits in the realm of civil rights and freedoms". In Studies in Indian Politics, Samir Sharma writes, "An important and timely contribution of this book is the linking of (non)democratic practices in the Northeast region to that of citizenship. Given the contentions over the Citizenship Amendment Act and National Register of Citizens in the region, changing the frame of reference for analysing the Northeast region from ethnicity alone to include citizenship studies and borderland studies is one of the strengths of the book."

Some vignettes include conversations with King-Spooner's now deceased neighbor who treated him kindly as a child, and the death of his grandmother. Development Developer Jack King-Spooner, after developing a number of freeware games, decided to take on a larger project. King-Spooner created a successfully Kickstarter, which he attributed to his successful body of already existing prior work. His games had always had a similar theme, which was around the death of loved ones. King-Spooner wanted players to fully understand the "place" of Beeswing, by focusing on death, change, and attachment. The game features handmade watercolor art, and was inspired by The Legend of Zelda, Secret of Mana, EarthBound, and To the Moon, among others. King-Spooner felt that the watercolor art of Beeswing suited the washed out surroundings of Beeswing. Although the game shares features with an autobiographical documentary, King-Spooner wanted the game to work on its own as a piece of entertainment. King-Spooner chose to include no fighting or puzzles in the game because they would feel odd in the setting; the soundtrack was created by King-Spooner himself. Spooner noted that the game is "a story about the past, about community and childhood, attachment and growing up. Scottish folk tales, morally dubious parables, cloudy anecdotes and more contemporary stories of homelessness and immigration all combine to create a truly dynamic narrative."

Koran MLA raised the issue and as proof, he presented the book Keralathile Africa to the niyamasabha speaker. The newspapers made it a point of contention. Arguments arose as to whether the adivasis of Wayanad were slaves or not. It has even been argued that to say that slavery exists is treason.

Desiring to find a solution to the plight of the adivasis, he volunteered to serve in the Tribal Welfare Department and became the project director on deputation for the four districts of North Kerala. He wrote the book based on his experiences during the deputation period from 1958 to 1963. Controversies This book was a matter of controversy even in the Kerala Legislative Assembly.

sent in November 2014, on the eve of the deadline for Negotiations leading to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action and talks between Iran and the Group of Five plus one. Unlike the previous three letters, which were first announced by Iranian sources, this time the American media, Wall Street Journal, published the news of this letter. In the letter, Barack Obama referred to the common interests of Iran and the United States and spoke about US attacks on the so-called Islamic State (ISIS). Disseminating reports of the fourth letter provoked a strong reaction from American conservatives. Republican senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham, staunch critics of Barack Obama, called the act of sending this letter "shameful." "Im telling you that [sending this letter to the Supreme Leader of Iran] will cause a serious problem in the relationship between us and our Sunni partners in the Arab League who are allied with us in the fight against the Islamic State group", also said Mike Rogers, chairman of the Intelligence Committee of the United States House of Representatives, in an interview with the MSNBC channel. In response to a question from CBS television channel about the fourth letter, Obama said: Khamenei's letters to Obama On February 14, 2015, the Wall Street Journal reported that a letter had been sent by Iranian leader Ali Khamenei to US President Barack Obama. The Wall Street Journal quoted an Iranian diplomat as saying that this letter was written in recent weeks (February 2015) in response of Barack Obama's letter which he wrote to Khamenei in October about the possibility of US-Iranian cooperation in the fight against ISIS if a nuclear deal | the first time that Iran had confirmed such correspondence with the President of the United States. Earlier, domestic and foreign media reported on Barack Obama's letters to Khamenei, which in one case were confirmed by Hassan Firouzabadi, Chief-of-Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, as a sign of the US government's realism. Obama's letters to Khamenei Obama's first letter was sent in June 2009, and the first mention to this letter was made by Khamenei during his speech in Friday prayers on June 19, 2009, a few days after the beginning of the protests due to Iran's disputed presidential elections. In the same days, CNN reported that, at least until then, the Iranian leader had not responded to Barack Obama's letter. Obama's second letter was sent in September 2009. The letter was sent after the presidential inauguration of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, when the protests had somewhat subsided, and was reported first time by the TABNAK news site. In the letter, Obama called for better cooperation between Iran and the United States. About two months later, Khamenei mentioned again to Barack Obama's letters. Obama's third letter was sent in January 2012. The Iranian parliament representative Ali Motahari, announced the third letter from Barack Obama to the Supreme Leader of Iran in an interview with Fars News Agency in late January 2012. The third letter was sent at a time when nuclear talks between Iran and world powers were actually deadlocked and the only agreement between the two sides in each meeting was on the time and place of the next meeting.

that included the firing of three black disc jockeys, accompanied by other deficiencies in representations made by owner Charles Saunders to the FCC. History Early years William E. "Bill" Hardy was granted a construction permit for a new radio station on 1540 kHz in Greenwood, to operate with 500 watts during daytime hours only, on January 29, 1963. The station went on air as WLEF—call letters representing Leflore County—and formally opened on August 30 of that year. The transmitter was located at Highland and Ione streets, with studios in the Wright Building downtown. In 1966, Kathleen Stutts acquired WLEF from Hardy, who was selling due to his ill health, for $71,000. During this time, the station aired a primary R&B format and was oriented toward a black audience. It also increased its power to 1,000 watts in 1967. Saunders ownership and license renewal fight WLEF was sold to the Leflore Broadcasting Company, owned by Charles Saunders, in 1969; Saunders already owned WSWG-FM 99.1. On May 1, 1971, WLEF became WSWG and began simulcasting programming with its FM sister station, relocating to its studios. However, this proved to be a decision that would have repercussions well beyond a consolidation of a daytime-only AM outlet with an FM station. WSWG's country music format appealed to more white audiences, which led to the firing of several black employees that had worked with the former WLEF. The existing WLEF format was retained on the AM frequency only on Sundays. In April 1971, shortly before the consolidation took place, the Greenwood Movement—which included three of the fired staffers—petitioned the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for an investigation of racially discriminatory employment practices. However, the FCC failed to take any action on the petition, prompting the group to seek remedy in appeals court. In October 1972, the FCC acted. It ordered Leflore Broadcasting Company to file an early application for renewal of its license by November 1, citing substantial questions about the firm's qualifications. After processing the license renewal applications for the AM and FM stations (the latter having been filed on a normal term in early 1973), the FCC designated both for hearing in April 1974. Issues the commission raised included the nature of the 1971 format change and whether it went | of racially discriminatory employment practices.

It ordered Leflore Broadcasting Company to file an early application for renewal of its license by November 1, citing substantial questions about the firm's qualifications. After processing the license renewal applications for the AM and FM stations (the latter having been filed on a normal term in early 1973), the FCC designated both for hearing in April 1974. Issues the commission raised included the nature of the 1971 format change and whether it went against promises Leflore Broadcasting had made in its 1970 license renewal application; potential misrepresentations to the FCC; and racial discrimination in its hiring practices. FCC administrative law judge Reuben Lozner visited Greenwood in October to conduct a week of hearings and hear testimony from station officials and petitioners. In September 1975, Lozner handed down an initial decision denying the renewal of both stations' licenses. He said that WSWG's claims that a switch was necessary to save it from bankruptcy lacked credibility, that Saunders had a "patent lack of candor" in saying that blacks and whites had essentially indistinguishable needs, and that Leflore Broadcasting's firing of the black staffers upon the 1971 format change violated FCC rules. Saunders mounted an appeal of the decision to the full FCC, which allowed the stations to stay on the air. Commissioners grilled Forbes W. Blair, the attorney for the WSWG stations, when he claimed the promises the firm had made in the past came from an "overly zealous former general manager", and the FCC upheld the administrative law judge's decision and denied renewal to the AM and FM outlets in July 1977. The stations would seek a reversal of the decision in federal appeals court. The United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld the decision in 1980, though it took the FCC to task for failing to |

Artist of Azerbaijan, Togrul Narimanbeyov, wrote about the work of the sculptor: A great place in the images created by Mirgasimov was occupied by the theme of the inherent struggle in such works where the sculptor portrayed Bahram in the combat with an angry leopard, the African breaking the chains of the slavery, and Icarus (the conqueror of the air) on take-off. The images of a lion, a walrus, a horse tearing apart, a gazelle are the examples of the artist's animalistic sculptures. In 1963 Mirgasimov was awarded the title of the Honoured Art Worker of the Azerbaijan SSR. The image of Icarus in the creation of Mirgasimov To create the image of Icarus at the time of take-off, Mirgasimov was inspired by the flight of the first man into space. Miralasgar Mirgasimov was the first among the sculptors to respond to this event. The sculpture is made of silvery aluminium. It was planned to be installed in front of the building of Baku airport, however the idea never came to realization. Subsequently, Mirgasimov several times turned to the image of Icarus. Thus, the tombstone of the Head of the Civil Aviation Department of Azerbaijan, Nureddin Aliyev, authored by Mirgasimov, consists of a sculptural portrait of Aliyev and a bronze figure of Icarus, who, having lost a wing, falls, fixing his gaze and one hand to the sky. Monument to Jafar Jabbarli In 1982, a monument to the prominent Azerbaijani poet and playwright Jafar Jabbarli, made of pink granite by Mirgasimov, was raised in Baku. For the pedestal, Mirgasimov, together with his wife Gultekin Khanym, travelled to Ukraine, to the Novo-Danilovsky quarry. The decision to establish the monument to the playwright on the square in front of the Baku railway station was made in 1959. In the same year, a stone was placed on the site of the future monument announcing that a monument to Jafar Jabbarli would be raised there. A competition was announced for the best project which was won by Miralasgar Mirgasimov. Despite the fact that the sculptor had already begun the work, the strive for minimalism, widespread during those years of Khrushchev's rule, and the fight against "excesses", suspended the process for a long time. In the late 70s, they remembered about the monument again, but the case was again frozen. Soon the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Azerbaijan, Heydar Aliyev, intervened in the situation. He personally supervised the progress of the work, provided Mirgasimov with help and support, and back in 1979 he came to the sculptor's workshop and got acquainted with the sketches of the works, consequently Aliyev liked those. While working on the monument, Miralasgar Mirgasimov was very worried and nervous, and when the work was almost finished, the sculptor had a massive heart attack right in the workshop. At the disposition of Heydar Aliyev, the personal doctor of the first secretary was in charge of the artist's health. Soon, the work, which Mirgasimov considered one of the most important in his life, was completed. The monument was opened on 23 March 1982 by Heydar Aliyev himself, who also made a speech at the ceremony. This monument is considered one of the most famous works of the sculptor. In the same year, in accordance with the decree of the Supreme Soviet of the Azerbaijan SSR dated with 1 December, Mirgasimov was awarded the title of People's Artist of the Azerbaijan SSR. The last years of life In 1994, Miralasgar Mirgasimov | of Azerbaijan. Biography Childhood and youth Miralasgar Mirgasimov was born on 9 February 1924 in Baku in the family of the doctor Mirasadulla Mirgasimov and his wife Jeyran khanim. The family had four more children. Miralasgar was the second child. Since childhood, everyone called him Alik. When Miralasgar was six years old, he suffered from an epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis. Later he recovered, but soon, as a result of the atrophy of the auditory nerve, the little Miralasgar completely lost his hearing ability. It was impossible to return the child's hearing at that time. Miralasgar's father, Mirasadulla Mirgasimov, also understood this. Despite the risk of the speech loss, thanks to his mother, who constantly communicated with her son and, using a special method she had invented, she has taught her son the alphabet, abandoning the ABC book for the deaf and dumb, consequently Miralasgar did not become dumb, therefore Miralasgar was not sent to a special school for the deaf. Soon Miralasgar learned to read, and his mother continued his education according to the method of teaching literacy and reading by the lips and the face expression of the speaker proposed by the Moscow speech therapist Natalya Rau. Miralasgar has mastered this technique well. Miralasgar's mother, later in her book "The notes of a Mother", which she dedicated to her son, wrote about him: Studying sculpture As a child, Miralasgar dreamed of becoming a pilot, and then - an agronomist or biologist. The boy also loved to draw and spent hours sculpting or painting. Once his mother addressed to the prominent sculptor Pinhos Sabsai, with whom the Mirgasimov family were neighbours. Under Sabsai's guidance, Miralasgar created, by memory, from clay, a sculpture of a lion seen in a menagerie, and afterwards a human figurine. It was a sculpture of Quentin Dorward, the hero of the novel of the same name by Walter Scott, which Miralasgar had read and was inspired by. Seeing the sculpture, Sabsai told the parents: “Your son is undoubtedly gifted”. Miralasgar Mirgasimov was also tested by M.Gerasimov. Soon, special classes began with the boy at the Azerbaijan Art School. In 1944, Miralasgar Mirgasimov graduated with honours from the Azerbaijan Art School. At this time, the World War II was still going on. Nevertheless, Miralasgar decided to go to the post-blockade Leningrad and enter the Repin Institute. In one of his letters sent home, Miralasgar writes: In another letter to his mother, Mirgasimov wrote that at that time he had the highest marks at the sculpture department. So, only two, according to him, including himself, received an "excellent" for a sculpture, and that only one received an "excellent" for a drawing – this was himself. Mirgasimov's thesis was dedicated to the "heroes-oilmen", and he successfully defended it. Thus, Miralasgar Mirgasimov became the first Azerbaijani sculptor who received a full specialized higher education. Further life and work In 1951, he graduated from the institute and together with S. Guliyev created a monument to V. I. Lenin for the city of Khankendi. Mirgasimov worked a lot in Baku. One of his sculptural works entitled "The portrait of a Girl", carved in marble, was especially popular. Before Mirgasimov, none of the Azerbaijani sculptors worked with stone. Taking part with this work in the frame of the republican and Transcaucasian exhibitions, Mirgasimov also presented this sculpture at the all-Union exhibition, and then at the 5th World Youth Festival in Warsaw, becoming the first Azerbaijani sculptor to win an international competition. Later Mirgasimov made other female sculptural portraits in marble: "Nana" and the "Girl with a Dove". His work the "Portrait of an Oilman" made of bronze was firstly exhibited in the opening hall of the 1961 World Art Exhibition, then, along with other works of the sculptor, it was exhibited at the 1967 World Exhibition in Montreal (Mirgasimov considered this sculpture his most successful work, since it was not made by an ordered). |

By the time the 20th Corps arrived in Nantes on August 6, its port facilities was in ruins. Also on the 6th, the Americans arrived at the outskirts of Brest, where fighting began and the city finally falling on September 18. Similar problems were experienced at the pocket of St. Malo, where intelligence from the Resistance indicated a force of 10,000 Germans. The Americans encountered fierce opposition but they gradually advanced to the city's citadel, where the engineered defences meant that 1000-pound bombs were of little use. In desperation, the Americans prepared to drop napalm when the Germans finally surrendered. The Americans with the FFI faced a similar doggedness at the Brest pocket. Over 75 strong points in the city were attacked, but this proved to be slow-going and time-consuming. By the time of Germany's surrender on September 18, the Americans had lost 10,000 killed and wounded, whilst Brest was destroyed including its port, rendering it useless for Allies purposes. Stalemate Rather than risk the same at the Lorient and St. Nazaire pockets, the Americans simply surrounded these ports for the rest of the war, keeping the Germans isolated. Their surrender came at the end of the war. By that time, the need for these port facilities in Brittany had become redundant when the Port of Antwerp was captured. Post Campaign Analysis This decision to use two armored divisions for the Battle of Brittany has been criticised in hindsight, as they could have been used far more profitably in the rapid Allied advance eastward across France. Ironically, after so much effort, German sabotage proved so effective that the liberated Breton ports were unusable for the remainder of the war.

editor of the Raleigh News & Observer, conceded that Young was an "intelligent Raleigh mulatto" but decried him and his men as "Russel's birds of prey." Daniels singled out Young for criticism, accusing him of sabotaging efforts to deploy the regiment to Cuba for garrison duty so that he could remain within traveling distance of Raleigh to attend to political affairs. North Carolina Adjutant-General Andrew D. Cowles, a Republican, also stated in an interview that news of the heavy casualties at the Siege of Santiago had led a significant amount of the regiment's initial volunteers to back out of their enlistment due to "downright cowardice." Black leaders rebuked his statement by pointing out that the army's regular black units had fought during the battle and highlighting the struggle to find enough white volunteers in the state. Training At Fort Macon, the troops were put to training and drilling. The regiment's officers were mindful that, as a colored formation, the unit would be subject to intensive scrutiny. Despite this, misconduct and disciplinary issues affected the regiment as much as other volunteer units. The end of fighting in Cuba by the midsummer of 1898 negatively impact morale of the soldiers' who had anticipated service in conflict and now thought that at best they would perform garrison duty in captured territory. The ranks increasingly filed complaints against their officers for being too demanding of them. Fort Macon was more isolated than other military installations in North Carolina, but soldiers were given leave to visit nearby cities such as Wilmington, New Bern, and Morehead City. White residents of those towns were unnerved by the black soldiers' presence and irked by their demands for "equal treatment". The Morehead Pilot reported that the actions of the troops within the city once nearly created a race riot which was narrowly avoided due to the intervention of authorities. On September 17, the Third Regiment was transferred to Camp Poland outside of Knoxville, Tennessee and formed a brigade there with the Sixth Virginia Volunteers, a black regiment under white officers, and a white regiment from Ohio. Also present at the camp was the First Georgia Volunteers, a white unit that was due to be mustered out soon. Relations between the Georgians and North Carolinians were tense, with the former tossing rocks at the latter during drill exercises and firing on them if they went into the woods near the camp. As a result, an Ohio company was ordered to protect the Third Regiment. Even after the First Georgia was disbanded, complaints about incidents of misconduct were ascribed to the North Carolinians, since most whites believed that a unit with black officers could not maintain discipline. The white-officered Sixth Virginia Volunteers thus avoided complaints. At Young's request, the Sixth Virginia was shifted into a different brigade and complaints about misconduct thereafter declined. Knoxville newspapers were initially critical of the Third Regiment in its first weeks at Camp Poland, though in time they came to appreciate its drilling and the behavior of its soldiers visiting the city. The Knoxville Journal reported, "The men realize that their actions are watched closely and it is their desire to so conduct themselves as to gain the confidence and respect of every one with whom they come in contact as true soldiers." Nevertheless, the morale of the unit continued to suffer, as soldiers griped about the rigid discipline demanded by Young. Camp Poland also lacked adequate supplies and clean water, which Young reported to his superior, General Thomas L. Rosser. In October it was announced that the Third Regiment would be transferred to Camp Haskell near Macon, Georgia. Disgruntled by racial atmosphere in Georgia and the Deep South, some soldiers began to hope the unit would be posted to Cuba as a way of avoiding discrimination. Morale dipped further after the Democrats won significant victories in North Carolina's state elections in early November. This was shortly followed by the Wilmington massacre on November 10, which was committed with the complicity of the Wilmington Light Infantry, a white unit already released from federal duty. The Third Regiment left Camp Poland for Georgia on November 23. The North Carolinians constituted part of the 4,000 black volunteers stationed at the camp, which became a significant grievance for local whites. Local white newspapers and the Governor of Georgia complained that the black troops were poorly-behaved and stoked violence, but most criticism was targeted at the Third Regiment due to its black leadership. The Atlanta Journal wrote, "A tougher and more turbulent set of Negroes were probably never gotten together before." President of the Raleigh-based Shaw University Charles F. Meserve, was intrigued by the negative press and decided to travel to Camp Poland unannounced in late December to ascertain the situation. Many of the soldiers and officers were themselves former students at Shaw with whom he was personally acquainted. Meserve toured the Third Regiment's quarters and interviewed white staff officers at the camp. He reported that the barracks were "well nigh perfect" in terms of cleanliness, that Young forbade the serving of alcohol at the canteen, and wrote that the white provost marshal, Major John A. Logan Jr., had thought well of the unit's disciplinary situation. Captain J. C. Gresham, a white Virginian, said that "he had never met a more capable man than Colonel Young." Despite Meserve's assessment, white criticism of the regiment in the press continued. Four | raised struggled to fill its ranks. Once the additional companies were mustered, the regiment was consolidated in Raleigh and dispatched by rail to Fort Macon for training. Though he faced pressure to name white officers to the unit, on June 28 Russell announced an all-black group of officers for the regiment. Young remained in charge and was promoted to colonel, while S. L. A. Taylor of the Charlotte Light Infantry was made his deputy as a lieutenant colonel. This made North Carolina one of only three states to create a black-officered regiment for the war. The regiment comprised 1,108 men and officers. Some of the soldiers gifted Harris a silver tea set as thanks for his work to create the regiment. Political effects In an attempt to dislodge the Fusionist coalition from North Carolina's government in the elections of 1898, the Democratic Party engaged in a white supremacist campaign which decried "Negro domination". Democratic newspapers criticized Russell for giving blacks guns, accused him of making the officers' appointments due to political rather than military considerations, and stated that he doted on his "pet regiment" with favoritism. Josephus Daniels, editor of the Raleigh News & Observer, conceded that Young was an "intelligent Raleigh mulatto" but decried him and his men as "Russel's birds of prey." Daniels singled out Young for criticism, accusing him of sabotaging efforts to deploy the regiment to Cuba for garrison duty so that he could remain within traveling distance of Raleigh to attend to political affairs.
