The 2022 Russian military exercise controversy concerns proposed military exercises in the Atlantic Ocean southwest of the Republic of Ireland in international waters but within the Irish exclusive economic zone from 3 to 8 February 2022. The exercise involves both the Russian Navy and Russian air force. Background By 22 January, the Irish government had received a warning that the Russian military was conducting an exercise or range practise in international waters off the Irish coast in the first week of February 2022. The Irish Aviation Authority announced that it was to reroute flights and issue a NOTAM. The area in question is approximately 240 km off the Irish coast. TASS had announced that military exercises would run from the end of January to end in February off the Russian coast, also in the Mediterranean Sea, North Sea, Sea of Okhotsk, Atlantic and Pacific. The Russian Embassy described reports of missile testing as "fake news" but didn't expand on the remark. The controversy takes place during the 2021–2022 Russo-Ukrainian crisis and an alleged Russian cyberattack on critical Norwegian infrastructure. Irish reactions A spokesperson for the Department of Foreign Affairs said that the department was aware of the exercises and had raised "concerns" with Moscow. Simon Coveney, who is both Minister for Foreign Affairs and Minister for Defence, told the Russian ambassador that the exercises were allowed but the timing and location is "not wanted". Cathal Berry, a TD for Kildare South, told the Dáil that the exercise was a potential threat to Irish sovereignty and that the armed forces had been underresourced. Sorca Clarke, Sinn Féin spokesperson for defence and a TD for Longford–Westmeath said she was "deeply concerned" by the exercises. She also criticised the lack of sufficient radar and lack of funding for defence forces. Fishermens' protests Pat Murphy, CEO of the Irish South and West Fish Producers Organisation, said that some members planned to peacefully disrupt the exercises. He spoke with a Russian official who said it would be "reckless" for them to send boats. Murphy said that he assured the official that the boats would not be engaging with Russian vessels but that they would be fishing in their traditional areas and if this had an impact on the exercise it would be considered a peaceful protest. He said that after a second telephone conversation with the embassy he had been advised that the embassy was to notify the Irish government on 27 January that the exercises were going ahead and that it was the duty of the Irish government to keep Irish fishing boats out of the specified area. Murphy said the organisation was appalled at this. On 27 January 2022, representatives of the ISWFPO met with ambassador Yuri Filatov to express concerns about the impact of the exercises on the fishing grounds. Up to 60 vessels are expected to take part in the protest. After the meeting the representatives said that a "buffer zone" between the fishing grounds and the area the exercise was taking place in had been agreed. The following day the Russian embassy denied that any such agreement had been made and the fishermen should "refrain from any provocative actions". International reactions French ambassador Vincent Guérend said the exercise was "unhelpful, not welcome" and offered French support to Ireland. Announcement of relocation of exercises On 29 January 2022, Simon Coveney announced in a tweet that he had received a response from the Russian Minister of Defence agreeing to his request that the exercises would be moved outside the Irish Exclusive Economic Zone. Events at sea 24 January TASS announced that the Russian Navy corvettes and had left Kaliningrad to carry out "combat exercises". 31 January French Armed Forces announced that they were following the corvettes Soobrazitelny and Stoikiy as they passed through the English Channel. They then handed over observation duty to of the Royal Navy and of the United States Navy. The Irish Air Corps CASA/IPTN CN-235 has been seen patrolling the areas where the Russian vessels are expected and a Pilatus PC-12 has been seen at Cork Airport. 2 February The two corvettes were reported to be off the English and French coasts. The replenishment oiler Vyazma was reported to be off the English coast near Portsmouth and is thought to be supplying the corvettes with fuel. The Russian ambassador is expected to appear before the Oireachtas Foreign affairs committee.

The Fern Hollow Bridge was an American bridge in the East End of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania that carried Forbes Avenue over a large ravine in Frick Park. The bridge opened in 1973 and collapsed on January 28, 2022. The bridge was west of the intersection of Forbes Avenue and South Braddock Avenue, connecting the Squirrel Hill neighborhood with the neighborhoods of Point Breeze and Regent Square. History Original bridge (1901–1972) In February 1900, the "Councils of the city of Pittsburg" appropriated $100,000 for the construction of a street railway and highway bridge across Fern Hollow. A steel deck arch bridge was completed by Schultz Bridge & Iron Works (steelwork was subcontracted to American Bridge Company) and accepted on September 28, 1901. The central arch spanned with a rise of ; overall, the 1901 bridge was long and the vertical clearance under the bridge was approximately above the valley floor, although later press reports stated it varied between . The roadway was wide, flanked on both sides by concrete sidewalks each wide. Unusually, the 1901 bridge was not built level, with one end being higher than the other. The four-lane bridge also carried double rail tracks for streetcar service. Replacement bridge (1973–2022) The 1901 bridge was replaced in 1973. The old bridge was closed in April 1972 and a new three-span steel rigid-frame bridge was built by Conn Construction Company for , using COR-TEN weathering steel. The replacement bridge, designed by the firm of Richardson, Gordon and Associates (founded by George S. Richardson), opened on June 1, 1973, and was presented with a Prize Bridge award for the medium-span, high-clearance category by the American Institute of Steel Construction in 1974. Arthur W. Hedgren Jr. was chief design engineer and entered his design in the James F. Lincoln Arc Welding Foundation contest. Hedgren received a cash prize award and a summary of his ideas on this bridge design was published in a collection of winners. The Lincoln Electric Company had created the James F. Lincoln Arc Welding Foundation to share knowledge about welding. The bridge used two welded steel girders, supported at each end on reinforced concrete caps poured atop stone masonry abutments; the deck was supported by welded steel floor beams and rolled steel stringers. The rigid frame supports were inclined welded steel legs resting on reinforced concrete thrust blocks. The structural steel in the bridge and its inclined supports was not coated, as the weathering steel used was designed to develop a protective patina over time. Prior to its collapse in 2022, the replacement bridge had been listed by the National Bridge Inventory as being in poor condition since September 2011. The posted weight limit of the bridge was and it carried more than 14,000 vehicles per day, with a posted speed limit of . The bridge was inspected most recently on September 19, 2021. In December 2018, Greg Kochanski, a software engineer who frequently walked beneath the bridge, tweeted a photo he took at the base of the bridge. He expressed concern to the city that one of the original X-shaped cross braces on a bridge pier had corroded and severed where the pier met the ravine. He had privately observed the bridge supports were "well rusted, which he presumed was because of a drainage problem where melting ice and snow with salt from maintenance was draining down onto the beams". Kochanski observed in his tweet that tensioned cables already had been installed to replace the function of the cross-bracing. The city's 3-1-1 system opened a tracking ticket three days later; a few weeks after the ticket was opened, it was closed and the corroded cross brace was removed. Kochanski's tweet went viral following the bridge's collapse. Collapse On January 28, 2022, at 6:39 a.m. EST, the Fern Hollow Bridge collapsed. Nearby residents reported hearing a loud boom and a whooshing noise around 6:35–6:40 a.m. Many credited the early morning time of collapse for the lack of fatalities, as the bridge was a route for many school buses, PAT buses, and commuters to work. Pittsburgh Bureau of Fire Chief Darryl Jones said it was very fortunate the collapse occurred before the morning rush hour. The bridge was covered with a blanket of snow from an overnight storm that had passed through the area. Five vehicles were on the bridge when it collapsed, including a Port Authority articulated bus built by New Flyer in 2013. Another passenger vehicle drove off the eastern bridge abutment after the collapse and came to rest on its roof. At least 10 people were injured; three were taken to hospitals by ambulances. None of the injuries appeared to be life threatening. Some first responders rappelled about into the ravine, while others formed a human chain to rescue victims. According to a law enforcement official, a passing jogger helped to rescue some of the motorists. The count of ten injured included some first responders who slipped and fell during the rescue operation. The initial rescue effort was completed by 8:30 a.m. EST while emergency personnel continued to check under the wreckage for any trapped victims; none were found. A crane erected at Forbes and Briarcliff was used to retrieve the wrecked vehicles, and the bus (22 tons) was lifted from the site on January 31. Under the road deck, the bridge carried a 16 inch (41 cm) natural gas pipeline, which severed in the collapse. Local residents were evacuated from their homes in response to reports of a "massive leak" and strong scent of natural gas. Officials shut down the gas lines in the area within a half-hour of the collapse. The bus, PAT fleet number 3309, was operating route 61B outbound from downtown Pittsburgh (eastbound), and had nearly reached the east end before the bridge began to collapse. Driver Daryl Luciani later reported "the bus was bouncing and shaking" during the event. After the collapse, first responders placed a ladder by the bus door, which Luciani and the two passengers aboard used to descend to the floor of the valley before walking up to Forbes. Political response President Joe Biden had been scheduled to visit Pittsburgh on January 28 to speak about infrastructure at Carnegie Mellon University's Mill 19. After learning about the collapse, White House press secretary Jen Psaki confirmed via Twitter that Biden would continue with his planned speech to promote the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Biden visited the collapsed bridge at approximately 1:30 p.m., before his scheduled speech, and told reporters that he intended to direct funding to repair all 43,000 bridges in the U.S. Biden was accompanied by multiple Pennsylvania politicians, including Mayor Ed Gainey, Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald, Governor Tom Wolf, Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman, U.S. Senator Bob Casey Jr., U.S. Representatives Conor Lamb and Mike Doyle, State Senator Jay Costa, and State Representative Dan Frankel. Gov. Wolf declared a state of disaster on January 28. Investigation Shortly after the collapse, the National Transportation Safety Board announced it was sending a team led by Chair Jennifer Homendy to investigate the cause. According to Homendy, the investigation will take 12 to 18 months to complete; the team began gathering evidence after their arrival on January 28. In a January 29 press conference held after the first complete day on-site, Homendy stated a preliminary report would be available in approximately 10 days, but the final report would require "a long, technical investigation" reviewing bridge inspection reports and maintenance records, video (from local businesses and the PAT bus), traffic counts, weight requirements, and road treatments. The preliminary report was released on February 7. The collapse apparently initiated at the west end of the structure. No primary fractures were found in the critical areas of the welded steel girders. PennDOT ordered reviews of structural adequacy for five bridges with similar rigid K frame designs immediately; the five bridges (Canon-McMillan Alumni Bridge in North Strabane, Shenango Road Bridge in Beaver, Philip J. Fahy Memorial Bridge in Bethlehem, McCallum Street Bridge in Philadelphia, and Murray Avenue Bridge over Beechwood Blvd in Pittsburgh) were found to be in "fair" condition at their last inspections. Reconstruction The city briefly made an observation site available, but closed it by February 2, as the reconstruction effort began. The replacement bridge will be designed by HDR, Inc. and constructed by Swank Construction of New Kensington; the contracts were awarded without bidding due to the emergency declaration and prior history with PennDOT. Federal funds of $25.3 million were allocated for design and construction from the Federal Highway Administration's National Highway Performance Program, which in turn was funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021. During the first weekend in February, Swank moved demolition equipment to the site in preparation for removing the rubble. Building a new rigid K-frame bridge is unlikely, as the lead time for the steel required is more than 18 months. The replacement bridge will be designed and built in sections; once HDR releases the design for a section, Swank will build it while HDR designs the next section.

Maud Holland (c. 1354 – 1392), also known by her titles through marriage as Lady Courtenay and Countess of St Pol, was an English noblewoman. She was a daughter of Thomas Holland, 1st Earl of Kent and Joan of Kent. After Thomas' death Joan married Edward the Black Prince, who was then Prince of Wales. One of Joan and Edward's sons (Maud's half-brothers) was the future King of England, Richard II. When she was aged around eight Edward arranged a marriage for Maud to Hugh Courtenay, whom she married, with royal and papal approval. Her husband, with whom she had no children, died in 1374. Maud was one of the first women to be invested as ladies of the Order of the Garter, when Richard II appointed many of his relatives to the order in 1378. In 1380 Maud married Waleran III, Count of Ligny, a French nobleman. After her death she was apparently buried in Westminster Abbey but the location of her grave is not known. Biography Maud Holland was born circa 1354. She was the second daughter of Thomas Holland, 1st Earl of Kent and Joan of Kent. She had one sister, Joan, and two brothers: Thomas Holland, who became the 2nd Earl of Kent, and John Holland who became the 1st Duke of Exeter. After Maud's father Thomas' death in 1360 Joan married Edward the Black Prince, who was then Prince of Wales. Maud was therefore a half-sister to the future king of England Richard II (who was Edward and Joan's son). Edward was involved in arranging the marriage of Maud. He agreed with Hugh de Courtenay, 2nd/10th Earl of Devon in October 1362, when Maud was aged around eight, that she would marry Devon's grandson and heir Hugh Courtenay. Devon promised to award Maud an annuity of 200 marks and the manors of Sutton Courtenay in Berkshire and Waddesdon in Buckinghamshire. In return Edward promised to pay Devon four instalments of 1,000 marks at 6-monthly intervals. The arrangements received papal dispensation from Pope Urban V and the approval of the English king, the Black Prince's father, Edward III. Around the middle of 1364 Maud and her brother Thomas, who was to be married to Alice FitzAlan, daughter of Richard Fitzalan, 3rd Earl of Arundel, were escorted back to England from Edward's court at Aquitaine in southern France for their marriages. Maud's wedding had taken place by February 1365, when the manors were granted. It is likely that she remained in her mother's household for some time afterwards as she was then aged around ten and the dangers of consummation of marriages in young girls were well known. Maud and Hugh had no children and Hugh had died by February 1374. Although Richard II, who succeeded Edward III, appears to have had little interest in Maud and her sister Joan, he appointed Maud as a lady of the Order of the Garter on 23 April 1378. Only two women had previously been accorded this honour and Maud was one of eight invested that day, all close relatives of the king, including Maud's mother. At her investiture she received a pair of paternosters with gold fastenings from John of Gaunt, Richard II's uncle. In 1380 Maud was married to Waleran III, Count of Ligny, a French nobleman, and afterwards lived in the County of Saint-Pol, one of Waleran's holdings from which she drew her title. Maud and Waleran had one daughter, Jeanne (d. 1407), who married Antoine, Duke of Brabant in 1401. Maud's funeral was held at Westminster Abbey on 23 April 1392 and was attended by Richard II. She was apparently buried in the abbey but the location of her grave is not known.

Harry Aiken Vincent (1861-1931) was a largely self-taught American artist known for his plein air landscape paintings. Many of his oil paintings portrayed marine scenes at the start or end of the day, featuring boats and fishing activity in New England, particularly on Cape Ann, and in France. The treatment of water, sky, light and color in his works was representative of the American school of Impressionism. He was also skilled at water color and drawing in charcoal. Vincent was born in Chicago and began his artistic career working for Thomas G. Moses of Sosman and Landis as a scenic painter for theaters, creating elaborate backdrops. His earliest known oil paintings often depicted rural scenes of towns and farms outside of Chicago. In 1893 he exhibited at the World's Fair in Chicago. Vincent moved to the New York City area in the late 1890s, when his work increasingly drew the recognition of his peers and the attention of collectors. In 1907 he won the Shaw Prize awarded for a work in black and white by the Salmagundi Club. He also won the Turnbull Prize in 1918, and the Porter Prize in 1925. In 1928 he was recognized with the Samuel Twybill Shaw prize for watercolor. He also won the Paul L. Hammond prize given by the New York Watercolor Club for his painting "Rockport Harbor". In the latter part of his career, until his death in 1931, Vincent lived in Rockport, Massachusetts, on Atlantic Avenue facing the inner harbor. He became a respected senior member of the Rockport Art Association, which he helped to found in 1921, serving as its first President, and the North Shore Art Association. Like other Cape Ann artists, he created many views of Gloucester harbor, and interpretations of an iconic fish shack on a wharf in Rockport, known fondly as Motif Number One. Street scenes and landscapes of the local granite quarries also attracted his eye, but he was continuously drawn to seaside settings. In the 1920s he found new subjects through travels in Europe, including England, Italy (Venice and Chioggia) and France (St Tropez, Menton). While in Brittany, he produced a series of scenes of Concarneau, a small fishing village. Harry Vincent was married twice, to Catherine F. Ryan in Chicago in 1884, and then to Mildred Deitz in New York in 1916. References Further reading 1861 births 1931 deaths Artists from Chicago Impressionist artists American painters

Sir Geoffrey Charles Wardale, KCB (29 November 1919 – 18 December 2017) was a British civil servant. Born on 29 November 1919, he was educated at Queens' College, Cambridge, and the served in the Army from 1940 to 1941. He then entered HM Civil Service as a temporary official in the Ministry of War Transport, being appointed to a permanent role by 1946. He subsequently served in the Ministry of Transport and the Department of the Environment, where he was promoted to Deputy Secretary in 1972 and then Second Permanent Secretary in 1978, serving until 1980. Wardale had been appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath in the 1974 New Year Honours and had been promoted to Knight Companion in the 1979 Birthday Honours. After retiring, Wardale was called upon to carry out two inquiries. In 1981, he published the Wardale Report on the civil service's open structure. In 1983, he issued another report, this time on fraud in the Property Services Agency (PSA). This was critical of the PSA, concluding that the organisational culture was complacent around fraud. This occurred after the businessman Montague Alfred's appointment in 1982 by the minister Michael Heseltine as chief executive and second permanent secretary of the PSA (without open competition); when Alfred was asked about the report's allegations by members of parliament, he pointed out that only 0.005% of the PSA's budget was likely lost to fraud and that it would be impossible to completely stamp it out. Soon after, Alfred resigned over these statements as they were perceived to have clashed with the government's own statements in response to Wardale's findings. Wardale died on 18 December 2017.

Jean Raon, or Jean-Melchior Raon (4 July 1630–1631 – 4 April 1707) was a French sculptor who worked mainly for Louis XIV. He is best known for his sculptures placed in the Gardens of Versailles, although he also produced bas-reliefs and pediments. Jean Raon, the son of a master mason, was born in Paris, and first trained by his father; in 1666 he went to Rome to study art as a boarder at the French Academy in Rome at the King's expense, in the new study abroad programme supported by the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture. After studying Roman antiquities for three years, he returned to France to work at Versailles. Raon would be continuously employed by Louis XIV to work on Charles Le Brun's major programme of sculpture, architecture and landscaping until 1699. He worked not only at Versailles but also at the royal buildings at Clagny, Marly and Meudon, as well as at the church of the Hôtel des Invalides. Raon became a member of the Royal Academy on 26 March 1672 and received the title of professor at the academy in 1690. In his last years he divided his time between teaching and sculpting for the royal residences. His son, also named Jean-Melchior Raon (1669–1719) was also a sculptor and worked at the Chapel of the Palace of Versailles as well as at the Church of Notre-Dame, Versailles.

The Amphitheatre of Catrum Rauracense is the youngest known surviving Roman amphitheatre across the entire Roman Empire. It is located in the ancient Roman fort of Castrum Rauracense, near Kaiseraugst, Switzerland and only ruins survive today. It is the eighth Roman ampitheatre discovered in Switzerland to date. The fort was built around 300 AD, and the ampitheatre also dates to the 4th century, shortly before the collapse of the Roman Empire and local Germanic tribes moved into the area; the ampitheatre was extant by around 337 to 341 AD based on coins found at the site. It was built on the site of a Roman quarry and is roughly long and wide. A boathouse was planned to be built on the site, and the ruins of a Roman quarry were expected to be found. Excavations by the Aargau Canton Archaeology Department, led by Jakob Baerlocher, began on the site in December 2021 and the ampitheatre was discovered instead, with parts of the gates and side entrances complete with preserved sandstone threshold and parts of the interior walls coated with plaster being uncovered. The remains of the ampitheatre will be left in situ and the boathouse will be built above the ruins, with a glass viewing platform to observe the ruins. References Roman amphitheatres

Jane Hay (10 March 1864 - 26 January 1914) was a Scottish philanthropist and campaigner. She was elected to the Edinburgh Parish Council in 1895 and campaigned to improve the lives of poor children in the city. Early Life Jane Hay was born in Leith to James Hay (1799 - 1880), a merchant and Margaret Scott, a dressmaker. Her father was well-known among the literary, artistic and legal circles of Edinburgh. She attended university in London. Philanthropy As a member of the Edinburgh Parish Council, Hay campaigned for nurses for the children in the workhouse and so deeply moved by the plight of the children, she adopted six orphans. She then turned her attention to deserting fathers, convincing the council to hunt them down and send them to prison for not supporting their families. She served on the council for 7.5 years and also served for 3 years on the Edinburgh School Board. As a result of her work, Hay gave lectures at the Normal School in Edinburgh on topics such as "Women's work in the world" In 1896, Hay travelled to Athens where she established soup kitchens. Continuing on to Constantinople, she undertook relief work among Armenian refugees helping to support 100 women and children. A year later, she spent two months distributing blankets and relief to Greek Refugees at Euboea, who had been driven from their villages by Turkish invaders during the Greco-Turkish War. She also supervised the soup kitchens, ensuring that over 1000 people were fed each day. To encourage families, who had lost their livelihoods to become self-sufficient, Hay helped establish cotton looms for the refugee families at Chalcis. When small-pox broke out on the island of Euboea, Hay organised food for the sufferers, who were quarantined in a mosque on a neighbouring island. She also cleaned medical instruments and organised supplies of tinned milk for the island's babies. On her return to Athens she set up a School of Embroidery, whose work was put on sale at Liberty's department store in London. Continuing with her aid work, Hay visited Russia in 1899, setting up a relief centre for the famine-stricken people of Kazan . A keen supporter of the women's movement, Hay joined the National Suffrage Society and the Women's Social and Political Union. St Abbs She moved to St Abbs where she helped establish the lifeboat station after witnessing the loss of the Danish Steamer Alfred Erlandsen with all its crew. She also set up a diving school and the 'Rocket Brigade' for children to learn life-saving techniques. Hay set up a restaurant for fisher girls who came for the herring curing at Eyemouth and a recreation room at Coldingham. She was involved in the Celtic Revival movement, being a good friend of Ella Carmichael and Margery Kennedy Fraser, and was a member of the Highland Association. She also one of the founding members of the Scottish American Society. She invited friends to lecture at the Church Literary Society including Antarctic explorer William Spiers Bruce and scientist and town planner Patrick Geddes. After suffering from a breakdown in health, Hay travelled to Switzerland on the advice of her doctors. She died of an embolism at Monnetier-Mornex in France in 1914.

The Walnut Park Historic District is a historic district encompassing a cluster of multifamily brick buildings in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. Roughly centered on the junction of Walnut Park and Waldren Road, the area was developed in the early 20th century during a major Jewish migration, and includes a fine sample of Colonial Revival architecture. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2022. Description and history Walnut Park is a residential street located in southern Roxbury, extending roughly northwest–southeast between Washington Street and Walnut Street a short way north of Franklin Park. Near the center of the roadway's length is a narrow central oval park, with Waldren Road extending northeasterly at its eastern end. There are several clusters of brick apartment houses near this junction. On the northeast side of Walnut Park stand three similarly styled apartment houses, designed by Saul Moffie and built between 1925 and 1928. Waldren Road and Wardman Road (which parallels it) are lined with a second set of apartment houses, built in 1912 to neoclassical designs by Frederick Norcross, a prominent local architect who designed many similar blocks in the Boston urban area. Norcross is also believed to be responsible for the designs of two nearby wood-frame residences. The Walnut Park area was partly country estates in the 19th century. In 1910, Simon Hurwitz purchased the former estate of Charles Clapp, which was on the northeast side of Walnut Park, and oversaw the subdivision of the estate and construction of apartments on Waldren and Wardman Roads. This rapid growth was spurred by the arrival of an elevated railway at nearby Egleston Square in 1906.

Sardar Pashaei (; born 12 May 1979) was a national wrestler, medalist and coach of the Iranian national youth wrestling team. He won the Asian Youth Wrestling Championship in 1998 in Kazakhstan and the same year won the World Youth Wrestling Championship in Cairo and won the gold medal. He currently lives in the United States and is one of the main leaders of the Navid Afkari campaign. Biography Sardar Pashaei was born in Saqqez, Iran in 1979 and completed his primary education in the same city. Later, he continued his education at the University of Tehran and was able to obtain a Master of Physical Education and Sports Science. Due to the fact that wrestling has a special place in Saqqez and many champions of this city had emerged in the international arena like abdollah Chamangoli, he also entered this sport and learned the advanced techniques of this sport from experienced coaches. Then he was able to win first places in regional and national competitions. Championship titles Summary of titles he has won include: Asian Youth Champion in 1998 Kazakhstan World Youth Champion in 1998 Cairo Runner-up in international competitions in Romania Member of the Iranian national team in the Asian Games in Bangkok The star of the national team selection competitions from the age category of juniors to adults Member of the national youth team in the Bucharest World Championships Coach of the national youth team in 2007; Win the Asian Championship in the Philippines and the third world title in China Coach of the national youth team in 2008; Win the Asian Championship in Qatar and the second world title in Turkey Coach of the national youth freestyle wrestling team in 2009; Win the Asian Championship in the Philippines and the third world title in Turkey Immigration to The united State Sardar Pashaei, however, quietly immigrated to the United States while the Iranian sports authorities were indifferent about it. He protested against discrimination against Kurds in Iranian sports. For instance, several months the state media in Iran published numerous reports and articles about the presence of Ahmad Reza Abedzadeh's son in the United States, who has no sports background in Iran but they turned a blind eye to one of Iran's national sports elites, who has made the country proud many times. But Rebecca Leit, a former US tennis champion, praised the Iranian champion's bodybuilding methods in an interview with the Washington Post. During this time, Sardar Pashaei has occasionally appeared as a sports expert on VOA. He holds a degree from the American National Academy of Medical Sciences and is currently coaching in the United States. United for Navid Campaign Navid Afkari was one of the professional wrestlers in the Iranian national team who was arrested by the Iranian government in 2020 and later sentenced to death after a trial and interrogation. This decision of the Iranian government led to the reaction of sports heroes around the world, including Sedar Pashaei. Pashaei, as the coach of the Iranian national youth wrestling team and due to his close relationship with the wrestlers of this team, including Navid Afkari, reacted more strongly than others and participated in the Alliance campaign for Navid to try to dissuade the Iranian government from executing Navid. Finally, despite international protests, Navid was executed in 2021. In this regard, Sardar Pashaei interviewed all reputable media in the world such as CNN, BBC, DW ans so on and tried to draw the attention of the international community to the situation of Iranian athletes under the rule of The Islamic republic government.

Queen Wonjeong of the Seonsan Gim clan (; d. 23 April 1018) was a Goryeo Royal Princess as the older daughter and child of King Seongjong, from Queen Munhwa who became a Queen Consort through her marriage with her half first cousin once removed, King Hyeonjong as his first and primary wife. From this marriage, Queen Wonjeong became the seventh reigned Goryeo queen who followed her maternal clan after Queen Seonjeong, her stepsister and predecessor. In 1009, after Gang Jo (강조) led a coup to dethroned King Mokjong and appointed Wang Sun as the new king, she then was chosen to be his first wife and Queen consort. During her lifetime, she was called as Princess Yeonheung (연흥궁주, 延興宮主) and Queen Hyeondeok (현덕왕후, 玄德王后) while lived in the "Hyeondeok Palace" (현덕궁, 玄德宮). A year later, when the Khitans invaded, the king moved to the south and she then follow him as well to Naju. After it was retreated, they then returned to the royal palace. Meanwhile, on 23 April 1018, she died at her own residence ("Hyeondeok Palace") and was buried in "Hwareung Tomb" (화릉, 和陵). She then received her Posthumous name of Won-jeong (원정, 元貞) and Ui-hye (의혜, 懿惠) in 1027 (18th year reing of her husband).

Operation on storming of the prisons in Donetsk is a thwarted special operation planned for 2 years by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine to release Ukrainian servicemen detained on the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. The planning of the operation began in December 2018. Lieutenant Colonel of the Supreme Court of Ukraine Mykhailo Nikolov spoke that the failure of the operation is similar with the Wagnergate failure. The long-planned operation involved intensive training, construction of assault schemes, testing of assault tactics in real conditions at similar places of imprisonment in Ukraine. The purpose of the operation was to remove the hostages, who were used as levers of influence in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and in Russia. The operation was planned with careful selection of motivated participants. Subsequently, the battle group and spies were exposed by the Ukrainian side, and the participants in the planned operation were persecuted by the SBU.

According to the National Science Foundation women and racial minorities are underrepresented in Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Scholars, governments, and scientific organizations from around the world have noted a variety of explanations contributing to this lack of racial diversity, including higher levels of discrimination, implicit bias, microaggressions, chilly climate, lack of role models and mentors, and less academic preparation. Race imbalance in STEM in the United States Racial minorities, with the exception of Asian Americans, are underrepresented through every stage of the STEM pipeline. Education and degree attainment Racial disparities in high school completion are a prominent reason for racial imbalances in STEM fields. While only 1.8% of Asian and 4.1% of White students drop out of high school, 5.6% of Black, 7.7% of Hispanic, 8.0% of Pacific Islander, and 9.6% of American Indian/Alaskan Native students drop out of high school. Among those that graduate high school, 67% of Whites, 62% of Blacks, and 69% of Hispanics enroll in a “degree granting college.” While there is no measurable difference in college enrollment of White, Black, and Hispanic STEM students, only 15% of Black students who initially enrolled in a STEM major received a STEM bachelor's degree at graduation, compared to 30% of White and Asian students. Employment, occupation, and income According to the National Science Board, which provides statistical data on the U.S. labor force, Asians represent 9%, Whites 65%, Hispanics 14%, and Blacks 9% of the STEM labor force. In particular, white men are 49% of the STEM labor force. Among different STEM fields, Blacks make up only 4% of life science, 5% of engineering, 6% of physical sciences, 7% of the computer science, 9% of math and 11% of health-related sciences. There are also significant wage gaps between women, men, and people of color, especially in STEM jobs. An example of this disadvantage is the gender pay gap and racial pay gap in computer science fields, where women earn about 74% of what men earn and the median income for White workers is approximately 23.2% more than the median income for Blacks. The gender and racial pay gaps in STEM fields are significantly greater than all regular non-STEM jobs with an even greater pay gap between these gender, racial, and ethnic groups. When first being hired, 35% of women of color reported negotiating their salaries, but nearly 50% wished that they had negotiated their salary after starting the job. Many of these women reported being initially satisfied with the salary they had been offered when being hired, but later learned that they were earning much less than other workers at their same level. Effects of underrepresentation of people of color in STEM Among Black workers in STEM fields, 57% feel that there too little attention being directed toward adding more racial and ethnic diversity in the workplace. This lack of diveresity contributes to isolation and a lack of social support in the workplace which can increase anxiety and depression for many people of color in STEM. Explanations for the underrepresentation for people of color Recently, scholars have begun applying the framework of systemic racism to explain the experiences of racial minorities in STEM. Specifically, research indicates that people of color, especially blacks, experience higher levels of discrimination, incur various microaggressions, and a lack of overall mentorship and support in STEM. Stereotypes and preconceived notions of STEM Scientific racism of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including the eugenics, attempted to identify biological, intellectual, and physiological differences among races. Lasting effects of the scientific racism include racial stereotypes about students of color and preconceived notions of STEM as predominantly a white, male field. A study highlighting the underrepresentation of women and racial minorities in STEM found that Asian and White candidates were viewed as more competent and hirable than Black and Latino/a candidates. Similarly, survey results from this study show that students were much more likely to recognize and name white male STEM professionals than Black or women STEM professionals. Additionally, students of color on college campus often face prevailing societal misconceptions and assumptions that they are affirmative action beneficiaries, on sport scholarships, and/or “at-risk” students. Stereotype threat Students of color must contend with stereotype threat that has been found to lower academic achievement. In particular, high-achieving Black students, attempting to combat prevailing stereotypes about their lack of intelligence, while Asian students combat the prevailing model minority stereotype presuming their are biologically predisposed to mathematical ability. In particular, scholars have highlighted the phenomenon of "Black Genius" and "Asian Fail" as consequences of stereotype threat. Stem identity The development of a STEM identity increases the overall likelihood that a student will continue to develop scientific literacy and pursue a STEM career. The National Research Council's 2009 report describes students developing STEM identities as learning to “think about themselves as science learners and develop[ing] an identity as someone who knows about, uses and sometime[s] contributes to science.” Black girls are less likely to develop STEM identities in middle school because they have fewer science-related experiences outside of school and less confidence in their scientific ability than Asian-American, Latina, and White middle school girls, making them less likely to enter STEM fields in the future. Additionally, research demonstrates that beyond first-hand experience with science, societal norms, stereotypes, and interactions with peers, teachers, and family contribute to the development of a STEM identity. Microaggressions People of color and underrepresented minority groups in science, technology, engineering and math are more likely than whites to experience racial microaggressions. Studies show racial microaggressions that occur on college campus weaken students sense of belonging, make it difficult to form relationships with faculty, and contribute to less cultural alignment with STEM. At predominantly white institutions (PWI) environmental microaggressions are common in shared laboratory spaces among students and during meetings with faculty and advisors. Black female students are especially likely to feel alienated and isolated from their peers in STEM departments. Implicit bias Research on implicit bias demonstrates that as early as preschool teachers are likely to hold implicit bias against students of color, especially Black boys. While Black children make up 19% of preschool enrollment, they account for about half of preschool suspension. This disparity is not explained by differences in students' behavior, but rather by teachers and administrators responding differently to white and Black student behavior. Implicit biases among teachers, faculty, and colleagues makes it more difficult for students of color to form relationships, network with professionals in their fields, and find valuable mentors. Judgements placed upon people of color based on implicit biases are incredibly damaging and contribute to stereotype threat, which affects their overall performances. For instance, Black women are often assumed to be underqualified forcing them to prove that they deserve to be in those spaces as was the case of Katherine Johnson depicted in Disney's "Hidden Figures". Additional biases exist for LGBTQAI+ people of Color who find their STEM spaces to be even more difficult. For example, a Black trans male neuroscientist was praised for work he presented and told that it was much better than his sister's. Yet, what those who praised him failed to realize was that his sister's work was his own that he completed prior to transitioning. This encounter demonstrates important intersections of sexual orientation, race and gender that further complicate the experiences of people of color in STEM. Sense of belonging When people do not feel welcome in a place, environment, or institution, they are less likely to feel they belong and more likely to withdraw. In particular, women and people of color often adopt individual strategies of assimilation or patriarchal bargaining in their attempt to gain acceptance. For example, Black male scientists adopt coping strategies to endure racialized interactions with colleagues and managers. Similarly, Black female undergraduates students describe coping with racism on campus by gravitating toward same-race peers, faculty, and staff. When underrepresented groups are forced to adapt or leave the field altogether, it costs STEM valuable talent and perspectives that could be used to advance scientific discoveries and advancements. STEM pipeline The STEM pipeline starts to narrow early as students of color face additional barriers to STEM participation in school. Primary and secondary schools Research indicates that racial disparities in science achievement test scores begin as early as third grade. These test score disparities were attributed to both socioeconomic status gaps between races and school qualities. In particular, Black and Hispanic students are more than double as likely to live in low-income neighborhoods compared to White students which directly contributes to less money for local public schools and indirectly less funding for STEM programs. Black and Latino/a may not always have the same access to higher level high school courses that are building blocks for success in College STEM fields. For example, those who have not taken high school trigonometry, calculus, or physics, are put at a disadvantage in terms of graduating with a STEM degree. Beyond academic preparation, experiences with STEM across various settings, including school, home, and out-of-school, help students of color see STEM careers as more possible. College While Black males are twice as likely as their white peers to declare a STEM major upon entering college, they are less likely to graduate with a STEM degree. Scholars point to microaggressions, a chilly climate, and lack of role models and mentors as contributing to students of color being "weeded out” of STEM majors. Additionally, one study examining Black male engineering graduate students found that microaggressions from counselors, mentors, and fellow students resulted non-normative role strain. These actors increase the likelihood that people of color leave STEM majors. Mentorship Because white men are still overrepresented in STEM fields there is a lack of available mentorship from faculty and scientists of color. As a result, students of color in STEM feel unheard, excluded, and lose opportunities to make connections with peers. Research does indicate that students of color at HBCU's are much more likely to perceive their mentors to be supportive and describe more positive interactions with peers. Work Underrepresented minorities, including women, people of color, and LGBT individuals are more vulnerable to experience discrimination, isolation, and/or harassment in their workplaces. A Pew survey of men and women in STEM indicates that 50% of women in STEM experienced gender-related discrimination at work and about 62% of Black people in STEM jobs stated they experienced racial discrimination at work. Additionally, 72% of Black STEM workers believe that facing racial discrimination is a major reason why there are not more people of color in STEM fields. Strategies for increasing participation of people of color in STEM Underrepresentation people of color in STEM is a problem that is rooted white supremacy and racism. Bias training Many scholars and organization recommend elimination of bias as a means to increase representation in STEM. Specifically, implicit bias training of students, managers, faculty, and even students is seen as one way to combat stereotypes and reduce microaggressions targeting people of color. Additionally, incorporating implicit bias statements and policies can strengthen a commitment to diversity and inclusion within institutions. Protective factors Those in STEM fields have recognized that there is an extensive history of poor representation of women and people of color in STEM and are working to close the gap. Addressing this issue requires a coherent and sustained effort across multiple fronts. Many would argue that single intervention does not work, but that sustainable and strategic reform in education, work place, and within our communities would put our theory in to practice. Transforming our perception of STEM in the early education years for students of color necessitates celebration of the distinct contribution that women and people of color bring to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Teachers While many teachers are highly dedicated to reducing the race gap and actively striving to create equal opportunities in their classrooms, they can actually contribute to the STEM race gap. It is important that teachers understand that their actions impact students’ futures more than they may realize. Role models One of the most promoted solutions is the need for role models. While both female and male role models can be effective in recruiting women in STEM fields there is a lack of role models of color to mentor POC in STEM fields. When individuals have someone to look up to that looks like them, they are more willing to stay in the field and develop a sense of belonging. Opportunities to engage and connect with individuals in STEM allows for excitement to be a part of this community and the development of a stronger STEM identity. Mentors Mentors provide students the academic and social support they need to succeed in STEM, however, having same-race mentorship is an important step in retaining students of color in STEM. Not only do students of color report more positive interactions with same-race faculty, they are also more likely to develop stronger STEM identities. Organized efforts There is a growing number of organizations whose goal is to increase diversity in STEM fields by encouraging girls and women to thrive in STEM environments. An example of one of these organizations is Girls Who Code. Their mission is to successfully close the gender gap in new entry-level tech jobs by 2030. Girls Who Code focuses their work not only on gender diversity but also on young women who are historically underrepresented in computer science fields, including African American/Black, Hispanic or Latina, Bi/ Multiracial, Native American/Alaskan, and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, those who come from low-income backgrounds, specifically free and/or reduced lunch eligible, and those who have had a lack of exposure or access to computer science. Girls Who Code acknowledges and values the intersections of race/ethnicity, gender identity and expression, class, sexual orientation, ability, age, national origin, and religious/spiritual identities. Similarly, Black girls who participated in I AM STEM, a community nonprofit organization designed to increase STEM participation among underrpresented groups, engaged directly in first-hand scientific research which contributed to stronger connections to STEM. Another great example of organizations for the underrepresented is the Society for advancement of Chicanos/Hispanics and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS). SACNAS's mission is to advance the success of Chicanos/Hispanics and Native Americans in securing advanced degrees, careers, and positions of leadership in STEM fields. The organization has been working to make sure that those most underrepresented in STEM have the support they need to attain advanced degrees, careers, and positions of leadership. SACNAS also often points out that diverse voices bring creative solutions to our world's most pressing scientific problems and that building a national network that is innovative, powerful, and inclusive is necessary.

Irene Joy Ferguson (1915 – 1974) was an electrical technician who worked as a scientific civil servant in the Ministries of Aircraft Production and Supply. During the Second World War, they flew aircraft with the Air Transport Auxiliary. In 1958, they had sex reassignment surgery and henceforth lived as Jonathan Ferguson. Early life Ferguson was born in Lurgan on 30 October 1915 to Edward and Jessie Ferguson, and was first educated at Lurgan High School and College. Ferguson then studied electrical engineering at technical colleges while working as a demonstrator for electricity boards in Northern Ireland and England. They then joined British Thomson-Houston to work on switchgear and, from there, became a technical assistant at the Ministry of Aircraft Production. Ferguson joined the Women's Engineering Society (WES) in 1940, joining the Council in 1947 and staying involved until the late 1950s. Ferguson represented WES on the Scholarship panel for the Amy Johnson Memorial Scholarship which was set up to support young women to further their flying careers. Second World War Ferguson had joined the Civil Air Guard and learnt to fly with them. In May 1943, they joined the Air Transport Auxiliary and flew warplanes for the RAF as a ferry pilot until October 1945, logging about a thousand flight hours. Ferguson reached the rank of Second Officer in the ATA and, after the war, was commissioned as a Pilot Officer in the Women's RAF Volunteer Reserve. Personal life In 1958, Ferguson announced that he had undergone sex reassignment surgery and his birth certificate had been updated so that he would henceforth be known as Jonathan Ferguson. He was then a Chief Experimental Officer in the Ministry of Supply, working on aircraft research and development and the change did not affect his position. Later career In the mid 1960s, Jonathan Ferguson was in charge of a civilian group of around twenty ex-pilots who wrote and produced Aircrew Manuals, (previously known as Pilot's Notes) in conjunction with test establishment pilots and RAF staff. He referred to his life before transitioning as “when I wore a skirt”. Jonathan Ferguson died in 1974 after falling from a domestic ladder.

The Hotel Saratoga, is a luxurious neoclassical architecture style fotel located on the Paseo del Prado, in Old Havana, in front of the Fuente de la India, built in 1880 for warehouses, it was remodeled as a hotel in 1933 and reopened in 2005. History The building was first commissioned by the wealthy Spanish merchant Don Eugenio Gregorio Palacios between 1879 and 1880 who was born in Santander, owned various rooming facilities, and signed a contract in 1879 for $ 98,000 for the construction of the new building. Originally, it was a three-story building, the ground floor was a tobacco warehouse, a shop, and it had a passageway to four apartments on the first floor. The second floor was used as a hotel or guest house with 43 rooms and a dining room. Its first location was on Monte street, later it was moved to the surroundings of the Campo de Marte, already in 1935, the tourist guides highlighted it as one of the best hotels in the capital. Its terrace called Aires Libres, was an important cultural and traditional center in the 20th century. After an arduous repair, it was reopened in 2005 as a lavish and expensive five-star hotel, with 96 rooms, three bars, two restaurants, a swimming pool, a business center and other amenities. It is one of the most beautiful in the Cuban capital. Its architecture responds to the colonial era and an eclectic character with a large number of elements of interest such as French carpentry, ceramics, and Cuban marble. The Saratoga hotel is located in front of the Plaza de la Fraternidad dominated by the monumentality of the National Capitol. The project that saved it was carried out in 2005 by the City Historian's Office. The central location, the views, give advantages for the tourist who stays here and has made it a preference for important international personalities of culture and politics. The building maintained its vitality until the 1960s when it was intervened by the revolutionary government. From then on, it became a tenement building with multiple subdivisions until it was vacated due to its deplorable state. Once recovered, today it combines its traditional style with advanced technology.

Xiomara Ruiz-Maduro is a Dutch politician from Aruba, who is the Minister of Finance, Economic Affairs and Culture in Aruba. She entered politics as an MP in 2009, and was appointed to the cabinet of Evelyn Wever-Croes shortly afterwards. Ruiz-Mandaro's challenge as finance minister has been to set budgetary targets that will begin to tackle the national debt owed to the Netherlands. From 2017-18 there was growth in the GDP of Aruba, but its economic growth relies heavily on the tourism industry - which accounts for 92% of its GDP. In 2016, in response to a ban of plastic bags by the government, Ruiz-Maduro called for further increases to Aruba's environmental initiatives. She cited the fact that no environmental protection law had yet been passed in the territory.

Teurastamo (; literally meaning "abattoir") is a public area managed by Tukkutori in Hermanni, Helsinki, Finland, which hosts events, restaurant and bar operations and other urban culture. The area is located along the Työpajankatu street near the Kalasatama area. The name of the area, Teurastamo, is derived from the city's former slaughterhouse, designed by architect Bertel Liljequist and opened in 1933. The slaughterhouse closed in 1992 and has since housed smaller butchers, bakeries and other food and flower businesses. The area was officially opened to the general public in the autumn of 2012. Teurastamo is run by more than a dozen active players, from distilleries to restaurants and coffee roasters. Notable restaurants in the area include the Restaurant Kellohalli, the Restaurant Palema, and Roslund, the "Gate of Teurastamo", known for its burgers. Teurastamo also includes a yard and barbecue for free use all year round by the townspeople, a bicycle repair point, a sack-growing area and a sauna for rent. A variety of free events are held in Teurastamo's yard, such as picnics, a farmers market-style markets and flea markets.

Stanley Mainwaring Farrar Sylvester (13 June 1912 — 20 October 2003) was an Anglo-Argentine first-class cricketer, businessman and diplomat. Sylvester was born at Rosario in June 1912. He was educated in England at Cheltenham College, before returning to Argentina after completing his education. Sylvester played first-class cricket for Argentina in January 1938, making a single appearance against Sir T. E. W. Brinckman's touring XI at Buenos Aires. Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed in the Argentine first innings for 4 runs by Jim Sims, while in their second innings he was dismissed for 21 runs by the same bowler. Sylvester was the honorary British consul at Rosario, a role he carried out alongside his management of a meat processing plant owned by the Swift Company, which in 1970 had laid of 15,000 workers. He was abducted in May 1971 from his home by guerrillas affiliated to the People's Revolutionary Army (PRA); his abduction was initially thought to be retaliation for the 15,000 job losses, with the group stating he would be "tried before a people's court of justice". The kidnapping was planned without the permission of the PRA national command. The Rosario PRA demanded that the Swift Company rehire 300 workers, reduce work quotas for their workers, terminate the indiscriminate firing of workers, provide medical attention to employees, reduce the cold working conditions in the packing plant, distribute $50,000 worth of food to working-class neighbourhoods, and publish their communiqués in public media. After one week their demands were met, with Sylvester being released. In November 2003, former PRA guerrilla Enrique Gorriarán Merlo travelled to Rosario to apologise to Sylvester for his 1971 kidnapping, but Sylvester had passed 20 days prior on 20 October 2003; he instead issued an apology to his son, Juan.

John Dronsfield (1900–1951) was an English artist known for his work in South Africa. Life Born in Lancashire, Dronsfield studied briefly at the Manchester School of Art before enlisting with the Young Soldiers’ Battalion – Cheshire Regiment in 1918. He was discharged as physically unfit in 1919 and began working in stage design with Sybil Thorndike in London. He emigrated to South Africa in 1939 where he continued his career as a stage designer. In 1942 he published Non-Europeans Only, a book of drawings of the Cape Coloured community. He held his first solo exhibition in Cape Town in 1939. This was followed by joining a South African exhibition at the Tate in 1948, and at the Venice Biennale in 1951. He committed suicide in 1951 and, following his death, two memorial exhibitions were held in Cape Town in 1955 and 1967. In 1955, Oxford University Press published a collection of his verses and satires. Two portfolios of his graphic studies were also published under the title African Improvisations.

Siaosi ‘Alokuo’ulu Wycliffe Fusitu’a, styled Lord Fusitu’a (27 January 1927 – 24 April 2014) was a Tongan politician and noble. He was Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Tonga from 1990 to 1998. Early life Fusitu’a was born a commoner and was adopted by Tevita ʻAlokuoʻulu. He was educated at Wesley College, Auckland, the University of Auckland, and Australian National University, where he studied law. He worked in the Printing Department and then for the Supreme Court of Tonga as an interpreter. In 1967 he married 'Eseta Fusitu'a. He was appointed to the noble title of Fusitu’a in 1981. Political career He was first elected into Parliament as the Niuas Noble Representative in the 1981 Tongan general election. He lost his seat in the 1987 election to Lord Ma'atu. He was a member of the Anti-Communist League, and during the 1990 election he led the conservative, anti-democratic faction among the nobles, attempting to enlist the church to back a "church and state" campaign and encourage a member of the royal family to stand as a people's representative on Tongatapu. After being elected, he was appointed Speaker, a position he held until 1998. As Speaker he clashed frequently with pro-democracy People's Representatives such as ʻAkilisi Pōhiva, and was in turn targeted by them as an example of the moral bankruptcy of the government. He lost his seat at the 1999 election on a coin-toss, but was re-elected in 2010. He died in Nukuʻalofa in 2014 and was succeeded as Lord Fusituʻa and as Niuas Noble Representative by his son Mataʻiʻulua ʻi Fonuamotu. Honours National honours Order of Queen Sālote Tupou III, Grand Cross (31 July 2008).

Gas for lighting and heating has been supplied to users on the Isle of Man starting in 1836; first as town gas, then as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and since 2003 natural gas has been available. The future use of hydrogen as a supplementary or substitute fuel is being studied. History In 1835 the Douglas Gas Light Company sought legal powers to act as a gas undertaking to make and supply gas to domestic and commercial users in Douglas. These powers were enacted by Tynwald in the Douglas Gas Act 1835. The first gas was made available the following year. Gas undertakings in four other localities were established; these supplied gas to their local area: they were Castletown (Castletown Gas Works Company Limited, 1857), Peel (Peel Gas Light Company, 1857), Rushen (Port Erin and Port St Mary Gas Company), and Ramsey (Ramsey Gas Light Company Limited, 1857). Town gas Gas was made by carbonising (roasting) coking coal which produced town gas – or coal gas – and a range of by-products. Although this process had been used for over a century, by the late 1950s coking coal was becoming expensive. Furthermore, gas making was labour-intensive and working conditions were unpleasant, and there were limited uses for some of the toxic by-products. In Britain alternative methods of gas making were being developed, such as reforming, which used refinery tail-gases or light distillate as a feedstock. The discovery of natural gas in the North Sea in 1965 led to the conversion to natural gas and the eventual demise of town gas. On the Isle of Man the last town gas was produced in 1971. Without access to natural gas or gas reforming the Isle of Man relied on liquefied petroleum gas and oil. Half of the space heating requirements are met by gas and half by oil. From May 1965 to January 1967 the gas works at Castletown, Port St Mary and Peel were purchased and came under the control of the Gas Committee of Tynwald. The purchase was intended to ensure that public gas supplies were maintained. Calor Gas assumed control of the Douglas and Ramsey gas undertakings. The Isle of Man Gas Authority was established in 1972 to assume the oversight functions of the Gas Committee. In 1974 the Gas Authority merged with the Isle of Man Water Authority to form the Isle of Man Water and Gas Authority. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Liquefied Petroleum Gas is a significant heat source for the Isle of Man. LPG is a product of oil refining and principally comprises propane and butane. LPG is maintained in a liquid state by being kept under pressure. In 2007 LPG was purchased from Esso Petroleum by the International Energy Group which has an 80% stake in Manx Gas. LPG arrives by ship and is stored in pressurised vessels, including a Horton sphere on Princess Alexandra Pier in Douglas. The capacities of LPG storage vessels (tanks) across the island are as follows. LPG is transferred by road tanker to storage tanks at Andreas, Foxdale, Jurby, Laxey, Maughold, Santon, and St Johns. From the tanks LPG is vaporised to its gaseous state and distributed to users via local gas distribution networks. The LPG supply network was divided into two areas: Kosangas and Ex-Calor. The former were customers on the system outside the Douglas area that were not converted to natural gas in 2002–3. The ex-Calor area are customers in Ramsey, Peel and Port St Mary. LPG is also delivered to users as bottled gas. Calor Gas operated significant parts of the LPG system on the Isle of Man. In 1967 Calor Gas took over the Douglas and Ramsey Gas Companies. Natural Gas Exploration In 1982 BP Petroleum Development Limited drilled an exploration well in UK offshore Block 112/25 targeting Triassic sandstones as a possible outlier of the Morecambe Bay gas field. This proved to be water saturated, yet deeper Permian sandstones appeared to be more productive. However, the field was isolated from any infrastructure to produce or export the gas. BP therefore relinquished the license. Block 112/25 was then in UK waters, but now lies within the Isle of Man 12-mile territorial limit. In 2014 Crogga Limited was founded and in 2017 was awarded a production license. Appraisal work and seismic surveys are being undertaken. Import In 2002 a second gas interconnector pipeline from Scotland to Ireland was constructed by Gas Networks Ireland. The first UK to Ireland interconnector was commissioned in 1993. The pipeline passes within 12 km of the Isle of Man. The opportunity was taken to provide a spur line from the interconnector pipeline to the Isle of Man. This allowed natural gas to be imported for the first time. It also provided a potential export route for gas should the appraisal work be successful and a gas processing facility built. The import of natural gas from the interconnector, in GWh, is shown on the graph. Distribution In preparation for the arrival of natural gas from the interconnector a gas transmission and distribution network was constructed. The system was designed, built and commissioned by Bord Gas Eireann in compliance with the requirements of the Manx Electricity Authority. In Douglas 15,000 customers were converted from LPG to natural gas. A schematic of the system is shown on the right. The network comprises buried steel and polyethene pipes, four Above Ground Installations (AGI) that reduce the pressure of the gas, and eight District Regulating Installations (DRI) that further reduce the pressure and which supply local distribution systems to gas users. The Manx Utilities Authority buys and delivers gas to the distribution network where it is purchased by Manx Gas. Operation Gas arrives on the island via a 10-inch pipeline operating at up to 146 bar. Glen Mooar 1 AGI measures the flow rate of the gas and reduces the pressure to 90 bar. Gas is transported across the island in a 10-inch steel pipeline to Pulrose AGI where the pressure is reduced to 32 bar for use in the Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) in Pulrose power station. Three AGIs take gas from the 10-inch line and reduce the pressure to 4 bar. The gas is routed to the eight DRIs where the pressure is reduced further to not exceeding 2 bar for local distribution. Glen Mooar1 AGI is owned by Gas Networks Ireland but is operated by the Manx Utilities Authority (MUA). The MUA owns the cross-country pipeline, the AGIs, the 4 bar pipelines, and the DRIs. Manx Gas owns, and is responsible for the operation of, the 2 bar distribution networks from the outlet valve of the DRIs. Key data on gas supply is summarised in the table: Hydrogen A recent study has shown that the Isle of Man has the potential to produce ‘green’ hydrogen from renewable energy sources. The study suggests that blending up to 20 percent hydrogen into natural gas would be acceptable for current boilers. The local distribution network comprising polyethylene pipework is compatible with hydrogen. However, the high pressure steel pipelines are not suitable for hydrogen service. Neither are the LPG storage tanks and road tankers. Ownership and regulation The gas industries on the Isle of Man have been owned and regulated by a number of organisations. The evolution of ownership and control together with pertinent legislation is summarised in the diagram.

Max Haider (21 July 1807 in Biederstein, Schwabing, Munich – 21 June 1873 in Munich) was a German huntsman, draughtsman, lithographer, cartoonist and illustrator. He married Therese Fäßler (1811–1893), and was the father to landscape painter Karl Haider, and grandfather to painter Ernst Haider. Haider provided hunting illustrations for the Fliegende Blätter weekly magazine and the Münchener Bilderbogen bi-weekly broadsheet. These illustrations fitted the cultural programme of Maximilian II of Bavaria's belief in reviving regional and national art to awaken a Bavarian national identity, which countered those of his father Ludwig I. Works by Haider are in the collection of the German Hunting and Fishing Museum in Munich.

Natural Law is a 7 episode series, created by Edgar Medina and Rui Cardoso Martins, directed by João Nuno Pinto and produced by Arquipélago Films, with Margarida Vila-Nova and Nuno Lopes in the main roles. The soundtrack is composed by Justin Melland. The series premiered January 5th 2022, on RTP1. Synopsis After the murder of a local student, a small town judge faces an unexpected dilemma: now her actions can put her family at risk. Reception The crime drama “Natural Law” premiered its first episode at the event ONSeries Lisbon, the first international television networking event to be held in Portugal, on November 24th of 2021 at the Centro Cultural de Belém (CCB), in Lisbon. The show premiered on national television started on January 5th until February 16, on RTP1. The series has been received with critical acclaim, and praised for its technical and narrative quality, as well as recognized for its international potential.“Everything (...) is shrouded in doubt, between the twists and turns of this thriller, first a crime drama, then judicial, then a family drama, and in part coming-age as well. Brilliantly contained. Enough is enough. Nothing more is necessary.” in Newspaper Novo Semanário. “What was originally a show set primarily in courtrooms, with a criminal case per episode, became something much more intricate. To write the seven episodes of Natural Law, the authors extracted freely many details from true courtroom stories, “which is why the dialogue sounds so real” in Visão (Magazine) “The cinematography is top-notch. The mise-en-scène, aerial shots and abandoned buildings – shooting occurred in the Caldas da Rainha area – join together in a suspenseful, nerve- wracking spectacle, with a cadence defined by American composer Justin Melland’s soundtrack (...).”, in Observador (Newspaper) “ (. . . ) This series is a collection of impressions taken from a particular place, and of a cast of characters. All are involved in an ambiance that is as written as it is filmed, set to music and photographed. Natural Law benefits from the juxtaposition of the physical space with the psychological state of the characters.” in Público (Newspaper) “There is a series that lights the way for the future of national television production: “Natural Law (...) “But the most important thing is that “Natural Law” is one of the most solid steps towards the realization of a national creative model, which differentiates us from the fiction of other creative poles. It is in their own identity, without being locked in a room, that the doors are opened to genuinely national production. Which can be international.” in Jornal de Negócios (Newspaper).

Max van Rysselberghe (19 December 1878 – 1961) was a Belgian-born Chilean engineer and Antarctic explorer. Biography Max van Rysselberghe was born in Ixelles, Brussels, on 19 December 1878. He was born into the Van Rysselberghe family, a prominent family of artists and academics originally from Ghent. His father, François van Rysselberghe, was a Belgian scientist who was a forerunner and inventor of numerous devices in the fields of meteorology and telephony. In 1897, Van Rysselberghe took part in the Belgian Antarctic Expedition as an engineer. They set sail from Antwerp on 16 August 1897. It was the first expedition to winter in Antarctica. However, after reaching the coast of Graham Land in January and crossing the Antarctic Circle on 15 February, they became trapped in the ice of the Bellinghausen Sea, near Peter I Island, on 28 February. They experienced shortage of food and were forced to hunt penguins and seals. Van Rysselberghe and sailor Van Mirlo devised a snow melter by altering the condenser so it could burn seal blubber. They placed the device on the deck, and thanks to it the crew was supplied with water. The ice didn't melt in the summer, so in February 1899 they decided to cut trenches to reach the open water. Van Rysselberghe broke the ice with explosive, and the crew was able to dig a channel with various tools. They reached open sea in the middle of March, and after being seriously threatened by a gale, managed to enter Cockburn Channel, reaching Punta Arenas at the end of the same month. They finally dropped anchor at Antwerp on 6 November 1899. Back in his home country, Van Rysselberghe met Isabel Martínez, daughter of the Chilean engineer Valentín Martínez. The two married in Europe before moving to Chile in 1905. He took charge of regulatory plans for several towns around Valparaíso and Santiago before moving to Concepción. Here he worked as an engineer for the Railway Company, taking charge of the Concepción arsenal. After his retirement, he bought Lonco Valley, dedicating himself to quarry stones, wherewith he supplied the railways. He and Isabel had four children: Lidia, Ivonne, Daniel and Enrique, who became director de obra in Concepción and was mayor of the city twice in the 1970s. Lidia married attorney and writer Jorge Labarca Moreno. References 1878 births 1952 deaths Chilean engineers 20th-century Belgian engineers Explorers of Antarctica People from Brussels

Seven Blind Mice is a children's picture book written and illustrated by Ed Young. Based on the Indian fable of the blind men and an elephant, the book tells the story of seven mice who, each day, explore and describe a different part of the elephant. It was well received by critics and received a Caldecott Honor for its illustrations. Background When planning the book, Ed Young believed that the story would work better with pictures if the blind men were instead small animals exploring the elephant. He considered using monkeys at first, but wanted an even smaller animal, so settled on having the characters be mice instead. Having added a seventh character, Young then began introducing other concepts that worked with that number, such as colors, with six of the mice representing the rainbow and the seventh a light. He later introduced the idea of the seven days of the week. Reception Ed Young's book was received positively, including a starred review from The Horn Book Magazine. Horn Books review praised the art, "where the brightly colored mice cavort against black backgrounds", and called the elephant's design "striking". A review for the School Library Journal also praised the book's art, saying the collage was "vibrant", and its use on a completely black background resulted in a "strong visual impact." Publishers Weekly called Seven Blind Mice a "stunning celebration of color" , and also noted how the sparse use of text allows for "greater exploration and enjoyment of the artwork". The reviewer noted, though, that the story's moral could be seen as "superfluous" by some. Kirkus Reviews called Young's retelling of the blind men and an elephant through the use of collage "innovative" and commented on the "dramatic black ground" in which the illustrations and text are superimposed against. Kirkus also noted how the final mouse, the one capable of seeing the whole picture, is the only female one. They concluded by calling the book "[e]xquisitely crafted". Seven Blind Mice was the recipient of a Caldecott Honor in 1993. Adaptation A video and audio version of the book was produced and published by Weston Woods Studios in 2007. The background music was done by Ernest V. Troost, while the narration was by BD Wong. The recording was also accompanied by a short interview with Young, who discussed the fable and talked about push back the book received "for having the white mouse figure out the puzzle, while noting that no one took exception to the fact that the smart mouse was the only female in the group". This version was well received by critics and received ALA's "Notable Children's Recordings" award in 2008.

Simone Marthe Brangier Boas ( – ) was a French-born American modernist sculptor who spent her career in Baltimore, Maryland. Simone Marthe Brangier was born on in La Crèche, France, the daughter of Pierre Armand Brangier and Marie-Louise Geiser. She arrived in the United States in 1904 and became a naturalized US citizen in 1921. She graduated from the University of California Berkeley in 1917 and studied under Leo Lentelli at the California School of Fine Arts. At Berkeley, she met philosophy PhD student George Boas while attending a seminar on The Self; they married in 1921. During World War I, Brangier went to France to do relief work with refugees, work for which she was later awarded the Medal of French Gratitude. She and George Boas were able remain in contact in France as he enlisted as a lieutenant in the US Army and served as aide de camp to General Charles Kilburn. After the war, she studied under Antoine Bourdelle at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière. In 1921, she and George Boas married and they settled in Baltimore, where he joined the faculty of Johns Hopkins University. Art historian Charlotte Streifer Rubinstein wrote of Boas' work "Imbued with the "truth to materials" aesthetic, Simone Boas carved massive, stylized heads and figures directly in wood and stone with no openings or penetrations in the forms." These included Ceres (1926), a mahogany figure bearing a cornucopia which was purchased by the Cone sisters and was the only American sculpture in the Cone Collection. Boas' award-winning mahogany Mother and Child (1932) was included in the Museum of Modern Art's exhibit "Painting and Sculpture from 16 American Cities" (1933-34) and is now at the Baltimore Museum of Art. Boas also lectured at the Baltimore Museum and taught other female sculptors. During World War II, she was again involved in relief work, heading the local branch of the Committee for Franco-British Relief and its successor organization, American Aid to France, from 1939-1948. She was awarded the French Legion of Honour for her work. Boas published some translations from the French, including one of Alfred Charles Auguste Foucher's biography of Buddha. Simone Marthe Brangier Boas died on 17 June 1981 at a nursing home in Philadelphia at the age of 86.

Willow Biden is a tabby domestic short-haired cat owned by President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden. Formerly a farm cat, she was adopted by the Biden family from Rick Telesz as part of a campaign promise to adopt a cat into the First Family and is named after Dr. Biden's hometown of Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. Willow is the first cat to live in the White House since India, who was owned by President George W. Bush and First Lady Laura Bush. Biography Willow is a former farm cat that was born in Western Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania and is formerly owned by Rick Telesz, a farmer in Volant, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. Adoption Jill Biden first met Willow during a campaign speech at the farm where she resided where she immediately bonded with her. In an interview Jill stated that the cat had, between then and her adoption by the Bidens, been living with a foster family, who had grown attached to the cat. Rick Telesz, Willow's former owner, claimed that he received a phone call where he was informed that Jill wanted to adopt Willow from him. Willow's adoption was part of a campaign promise to adopt a cat into the First Family, and after being so, was named Willow Biden, after Jill's hometown of Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. While the adoption of a cat by the Biden family was promised in late 2020, Willow was only adopted in 2022 because of concerns that she would not get along with the Biden family's German Shepherd Major, who had biting issues. Eventually Major was sent to live with friends of the Biden family in Delaware.

Forsyth's, also known as R.W. Forsyth, and 26 - 30 Princes Street, Edinburgh, is a former department store in Edinburgh, Scotland, situated at the corner of Princes Street and South St. Andrew Street. History and architecture The building, erected as the flagship store of R. W. Forsyth in 1906–1907, was designed by the Scottish architect John James Burnet. An extension, designed by the architects Burnet, Son & Dick was built in 1925. The facade is decorated with important Neo-Baroque sculpture. At the corner on a ledge above the third floor, and directly above the entrance doors, stands a figure of a woman who holds a sewing machine. Also at the corner, and forming part of windowed aedicules at the second floor, are flanking tympanum relief sculptures of a longhaired figure driving a quadriga with an F (for Forsyth) on the front of the chariot. Running along an eaves gallery at the top of the building is a series - six on the Princes Street side, and four on the South St Andrews Street side - of term figures with fantastical heads by the Scottish sculptors William Birnie Rhind and William Reid Dick. On top of the corner tower sits a gigantic partly gilded steel sculpture of armillary sphere decorated with the signs of the zodiac and with three dancing putti, designed by the English sculptor Gilbert Bayes.
