A master of classic American street photography, Leon Levinstein (American, 1910–1988) is best known for his candid and unsentimental black-and-white figure studies made in New York City neighborhoods from Times Square and the Lower East Side to Coney Island. From June 8 through October 17, 2010, The Metropolitan Museum of Art presents Hipsters, Hustlers, and Handball Players: Leon Levinstein’s New York Photographs, 1950-1980. This exhibition, drawn exclusively from the Metropolitan’s collection, features 44 photographs that reflect Levinstein’s fearless approach to the medium. Levinstein’s graphic virtuosity—seen in raw, expressive gestures and seemingly monumental bodies—is balanced by an unusual compassion for his off-beat subjects from the demimonde.

“Quote of the Day”

Via: Think Progress

“I will rally our friends and allies to match our generosity with theirs.  And I will make it clear to the recipients of our aid that, in return for our material support, they must meet the responsibilities of every decent modern government-to respect the rights of all of their citizens, including women and minorities… to ensure space for civil society, a free media, political parties, and an independent judiciary… and to abide by their international commitments to protect our diplomats and our property.”

Via: Detroit News

General Motors Co. and the state announced Monday that GM will create 2,000  new jobs in Michigan, beginning with up to 1,500 at a new information technology  innovation center in Warren.

It’s unclear where GM would add the other 500 jobs, but the state says the  innovation center is the first of three projects the company will announce.

.

Thirty percent or more of those 1,500 hires could be recent college graduates,  as GM plans a large recruiting initiative with southeastern Michigan colleges  and universities, Mott said.

He expects some people who left Michigan for other  jobs will return for the new opportunities.
