The is an archaeological site in the Kusaka neighborhood of the city of Higashiōsaka, Osaka Prefecture, in the Kansai region of Japan containing a Jōmon period shell midden. It was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1972 . Overview During the early to middle Jōmon period (approximately 4000 to 2500 BC), sea levels were five to six meters higher than at present, and the ambient temperature was also 2 deg C higher. During this period, the Kansai region was inhabited by the Jōmon people, many of whom lived in coastal settlements. The middens associated with such settlements contain bone, botanical material, mollusc shells, sherds, lithics, and other artifacts and ecofacts associated with the now-vanished inhabitants, and these features, provide a useful source into the diets and habits of Jōmon society. Most of these middens are found along the Pacific coast of Japan. The Kusaka midden is located at the tip of an alluvial fan formed at the western foot of Mount Ikoma. It is unusual that the majority (99%) of the shell found within are from freshwater shellfish, mostly Seta-shijimi, with diameters of 24-30 mm, but also nine other freshwater species. However, in the lower layers of the middle were 13 species of saltwater clams, including sazae and oysters. Around 6000 BC the midden was located on a lagoon (Kawachi Bay) which extended from Osaka Bay inland into the Kawachi Plain due to the Holocene glacial retreat. As sea levels rose, the lagoon transitioned into a brackish and then a freshwater lake, as "documented" by the change in species of shellfish. In addition to the shells and fish bones, the middens yielded 34 sets of human remains, mostly burials in various positions, and in which teeth have been ritually removed. Other artifacts found in excavations include a large amount of Jōmon pottery, stone tools, bone tools, dogū figurines and animal bones, including that of a horse. The discovery of the ruins dates back to the early twentieth century. In 1952, Jōmon pottery excavated from the Kusaka shell mound included the Kamegaoka style pottery from the late Jōmon period in the Tōhoku region. This was the first time that pottery from the late Jomon period in the Tōhoku region had been confirmed in the Kansai region. After World War II, the site was excavated in 1960, and 1966. The site is located a 20-minute walk from Ishikiri Station on the Kintetsu Railway Kintetsu Nara Line.

Vladimir Mijanović (Mosko near Trebinje, 15 August 1946 — Belgrade, 6 May 2021), also known as Vlada “Revolucija” (Revolution), was a Serbian human rights activist and leader of 1968 student demonstrations in Yugoslavia. Biography Vladimir Mijanović was born in 1946 in Trebinje. He studied sociology at the University of Belgrade Faculty of Philosophy. During his studies, he participated in the protests against the Vietnam War in 1966 in Belgrade. As president of the Faculty Board of the Student Union, he became one of the leaders of 1968 student demonstrations, especially because of his extraordinary organizational skills. On 3 June 1968 he lead a protest rally from the student campus, occupying the University Rectorate, where students founded the “Karl Marx Red University” and proclaimed a general strike until their requirements are fulfilled. Because of his participation in the protest, he was expelled from the university, proclaimed a dissident and a disturber of constitutional order, which lead to his arrest in July 1970. He was accused of organizing the hunger strike of students of the Faculty of Philosophy in a show of solidarity with Kakanj miners, printing a satirical magazine called “Frontisterion”, active involvement in defense of periodicals that were repressed at the time (“Student”, “Susret”, “Vidici”) and organizing a protest against the War in Cambodia. His arrest and sentence to 20 months in prison (later commuted to 12 months) caused a two-week student strike and reactions of foreign intellectuals, including Noam Chomsky who described Mijanović as “the hope and the conscience of the Yugoslav revolution”. He was one of the founders of the dissident Free University in 1976, even the founding meeting was held in his apartment. At the time, this was the only dissident organization in Yugoslavia. Because of this he was again arrested in 1984, with a group of five other intellectuals, who became famous as the “Belgrade Six”, and accused of “counter-revolutionary activities”, even though the accusations were later dismissed. The process against the “Belgrade Six” lead to an equally strong reaction from around the world, including a petition of 130 prominent Western public figures that was submitted to Yugoslav Presidency because of the process. As the régime's persona non grata, Mijanović was systematically deprived of opportunities for work, his civil liberties were limited, and his passport was taken away. When, at the urging of Zoran Radmilović, he got work as a background actor in the series “Više od igre” (“More than a game”) in 1976, all shots in which he appeared were cut during editing. In 1986, Mijanović left Yugoslavia for the USA, where he lived with his wife and two children, earning a livelihood by doing manual labor; he also worked as a taxi driver for some time. Even though he did not have necessary documents for permanent residence in the US, he participated in protests of various leftist movements, including anti-war movements, and movements for the abolition of death penalty. Upon his return to Serbia in 2006 he lived modestly and out of the public eye, but he still actively participated in protests and marches in defense of human rights, including protests against evictions and bailiffs, ecological protests against cutting down trees, against small-scale hydropower plants and against genetically modified organisms; he was also active in providing help to Middle Eastern and African refugees. He designed and painted many hundreds of banners that were carried on numerous protests, displayed on barricades in Kosovo and Metohija, and were even a subject of a dedicated exhibition in France. Since 1966 and throughout his life, Vladimir Mijanović had, in line with his own individual and moral principles, selflessly pursued the fight against tyranny, for human rights, human dignity and freedom, and his sincere convictions, perseverance under adversites and personal example made him into a tireless teacher to new generations of activists.

Île aux Fouquets (also known as Île au Phare, Lighthouse Island) is an island off the south-east coast of Mauritius. The island is of pure coral origin and has had Islet National Park status since June 5, 2004. It is located about five kilometers off the south-eastern coast in the vicinity of the islands of Ilot Vacoas and Île de la Passe. South of the islands is the only opening in the coral reef through which larger ships can pass. The size of the Île aux Fouquets is 2.49 hectares. According to the German zoologist Karl August Möbius, the name of the island goes back to a species of tern that bred in caves there and was called fouquet by the fishermen. Around 1694, refugee Huguenots lived for a few years on the Île aux Fouquets under the direction of the Frenchman François Leguat. They had previously tried to establish a Protestant republic called Eden on the island of Rodrigues, 580 kilometers to the east. However, they broke off the project on the quite fertile island out of loneliness and decided to sail to Mauritius on a self-built barge without anchor and compass. Having safely arrived there, for unknown reasons they came into conflict with the Dutch governor, who banished them to the treeless Île aux Fouquets. Only years later were the men taken from there to the island of Java. In 1810, not far from the Île aux Fouquets, the naval battle of Grand Port took place, which the French won. A good fifty years later, long after they had conquered Mauritius, the British erected a lighthouse on the island. The building from 1864 is now a ruin but is a listed building. The island offers a good view of the surrounding islands, the coast and the prominent Lion Mountain. See also Geography of Mauritius References Uninhabited islands of Mauritius
The was a new land development undertaken by a wealthy Osaka merchant, Konoike Zen'emon in mid-Edo Period Japan. It was located in central Kawachi Province in what is now part of the city of Higashiōsaka, Osaka Prefecture, Japan. The well-preserved buildings of the management office of the settlement were designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1976. Overview In 1704, the Tokugawa shogunate completed a large-scale flood control project which diverted the course of the Yamato River and drained a large lake in what is now the northern portion of Higashiosaka. This resulted in a large tract of land becoming available for paddy fields. A wealthy Osaka merchant, the Konoike family, won a bid for development rights over a 119 hectare area, and settled farmers from afar away as Ise Province on these new lands. The main place of residence for settlers was named Konoikehonmachi, which had many waterways, as the settlers used boats for transportation of the harvested rice to the central warehouse. With the establishment of the modern municipalities system in 1889, the area became part of the village of Kitae in Nakakawachi District Osaka. After World War II, a large portion of the area was transformed into a residential area; however, the 13th generation of the original settlers still farm a portion of the land. The was completed in 1707 as the management office of the settlement. The office was responsible for the maintenance and repair of fields, waterways, and bridges, collecting taxes and tenant's fees, official registration of households, pensions for the elderly, and providing police and other public services. It was located in a trapezoidal area surrounded by moats and a wall, and contained five buildings: the main office, Warehouses, Library, Granary and Tool Shed. All of these buildings have survived in good condition, and were designated as a National Important Cultural Properties in 1980. They are currently owned and managed by Higashiosaka City and were opened to the public as a museum in 1997. It is about a five-minute walk from Konoikeshinden Station on the JR West Katamachi Line.

The , is an archaeological site with the ruins of a Asuka period Buddhist temple located in the Kawachi neighborhood of the city of Higashiōsaka, Osaka, Japan. The temple no longer exists, but the temple grounds were designated as a National Historic Site in 2008 with the area under protection expanded in 2016 Overview The Kawachi-dera ruins are located on gently sloping ground at an elevation of 20 meters at the western foot of the Ikoma Mountains in the eastern part of Higashiosaka. Immediately to the northwest of the ruins is the Taraike ruins, which is believed to be the Nara period administrative center for Kawachi County. Per archaeological excavations, the foundations for a mid-7th century temple complex with an arrangement of buildings on a south-to-north alignment patterned after Shitennō-ji in Osaka was discovered. The remains of the pagoda foundation, 10.7 meters square and 1.4 meters high was found to be in particularly good condition. Analysis of the excavated roof tiles confirm that the Kondo and cloister date from the middle of the 7th century, and the pagoda from a little later in the 7th century. The temple was abandoned around the end of the Kamakura period, based on a bowl dated to the beginning of the 14th century which was found in the sediment which covered the foundation stones. From historical documentation, is believed that this temple was constructed by an influential toraijin clan, the Kawachi-no-atai, who may have been the same as the "Oshikochi no Kuni no miyatsuko" who ruled ancient Kawachi Province. This area of Kawachi was known to have a large population of settlers from Baekje in late Kofun period into the Asuka period. The temple later became the official temple associated with the county-level administrative center with the developed of the ritsuryo system of local governments in the Nara period. The site is preserved as an archaeological park, and is about a ten-minute walk from Hyotanyama Station on the Kintetsu Railway Kintetsu Nara Line.

Reflexive control - influence on the decisions made by the opponent by shoving (imposing) him such assumptions on the basis of which he acts in the way desired by the manipulator. Methods of reflexive control are widely used in a variety of fields: advertising, public relations, military art, etc. An example of such a strategy could be a card shark deliberately losing the first games in the game, systematic diversionary attacks on an unimportant area of combat, etc.. Introduction As defined by Soviet scholar V. Lefebvre reflexive control is a process in which one adversary hands over to the other the basis for decision-making.». In other words, there is a substitution of motivation factors of the enemy in order to encourage him to take disadvantageous decisions. Professor G. Smolyan believes that the key point of reflexive control is implicitly forcing a subject to choose a desired result. As an aphoristic example of reflexive manipulation we can recall an episode from "Uncle Remus's Tales" in which Brother Rabbit eludes Brother Fox by asking: The oldest of those literary heroes who specialized in reflexive control is considered to be the biblical serpent who provoked Eve to taste the forbidden fruit. The category of typical provocateurs can also include one of the famous characters of the Swedish writer Astrid Lindgren, who terrorized the housewife Freken Bock with a simple question. Lindgren, who terrorized the housewife Freken Bock with a simple question: Individual techniques of reflexive control called "stratagems" have occupied an important place in the history of military art since ancient times. For example, Sun Tzu put in the title of the first chapter of one of his treatises the statement "War is the way of deception," thus defining the craft of warfare as the art of deception. The preconditions for the actual emergence of the theory of reflexive control can be found in the Soviet military literature of the mid-20th century; four main stages are distinguished in the process of its improvement: from the early 1960s to the late 1970s: research, late 1970s to early 1990s: practice-oriented, from the beginning to the middle of the 1990s: psychological and pedagogical, since the late 1990s: psychosocial. Among the most authoritative scientists who dealt with the tasks of reflexive control, in addition to V. Lefebvre, the works of D. Pospelov, V. Burkov, V. Lepsky, G. Shchedrovitsky and others are noted. In addition to them, the artistic aspects of the subject of reflexive control were reflected in the works of some major writers, for example, V. Pelevin. Military application General provisions A formally approved terminology of reflexive control did not exist in the military art in the past; nevertheless, its tools were intuitively recognized and were actively used in attempts to calculate the actions of an adversary or to create an erroneous impression of him/herself. According to some Russian military experts, applied aspects of reflexive control, having geopolitical significance, are an effective tool for conducting information warfare and can have significant advantages over traditional methods of using military means. Exploiting moral stereotypes of behavior, psychological factors, personal information about the command personnel (biographical data, habits, etc.) reflexive control makes it possible to increase the chances of achieving victory, but it is noted that this tactic requires information about the enemy with a high degree of detail and quality. Among the tools of reflexive control are also listed camouflage (at all levels), disinformation, provocation, blackmail, compromising, etc., whose vector of action is aimed more at the hard to grasp and subjectively perceived elements of "military art" than at the more objective concepts of "military science". Modern computerization can make it difficult to use reflexive control methods because their application is easily revealed by mathematical modeling. Nevertheless, one cannot dismiss the existence of a broad class of exceptions where machine intelligence may lack an intuitive understanding of real reality. In reviewing Russian research on the use of the arsenal of reflexive control for military purposes, the American scholar T.L. Thomas singled out the work of Colonel S.A. Komov as the most productive military theorist in this area..In his publications, Komov made extensive use of developments from the field of reflexive management under the name of "intellectual methods of information warfare," highlighting the following main elements.: Distraction through a real or perceived threat to one of the enemy's key positions (on the flanks, in the rear, etc.) during preparations for military action, overloading through supplying the enemy with large volumes of self-contradictory information, paralysis, creating the illusion of pinpointed threats to vital interests or the most vulnerable locations, exhaustion, forcing the adversary to expend resources to perform unproductive activities, deception, provoking the enemy to redeploy forces to the threatened area in preparation for military action, splitting, forcing the enemy to act against the interests of his allies, appeasement, by lowering vigilance and creating the illusion that routine training, rather than preparations for offensive actions, are taking place, intimidation, by creating the appearance of invincible superiority, provocation, through the imposition of an unfavorable scenario of action, suggestion, through the presentation of information material that influences legally, morally, ideologically or in other spheres, pressure, through the presentation of information material that discredits the government in the eyes of the population. Another domestic researcher who attracted interest abroad was Professor F. Chausov, who formulated the following principles of reflexive management: principle of purposefulness — the process should be goal-oriented, involving the full range of necessary measures of reflexive management, principle of actualization - there should be an "updating" of planning, providing a fairly complete picture of the intellectual potential of the command and staff, especially in situations related to the global information space, principle of conformity - mutual consistency of goals, place, time and methods of reflexive management must be observed, simulation principle — one should not forget about forecasting and modeling the actions and states of the opposing side during the execution of reflexive control'' procedures, principle of anticipation - current events must be anticipated and anticipated. In addition, when using reflexive management, Chausov gave an assessment of risk, the essence of which boils down to the danger of making a mistake if you misjudge the consequences. With this approach, the maximum risk would be if the adversary unravels the plan himself. One well-known example of the effective use of the theory of reflexive control was the disinformation work of the Soviet secret services to create an exaggerated impression on the American side of the shock potential of Soviet nuclear weapons. To this end, fake models of intercontinental ballistic missiles were developed for participation in Red Square parades, and their appearance was immediately reflected in the reports of foreign attachés to their superiors. The next stage was to provide indirect evidence of the real existence of these missile systems, which would then divert the resources of foreign developers to unsuccessful attempts to reproduce the allegedly "new" technology. Similarly, British intelligence conducted disinformation support for the Allied landings in Sicily, codenamed Operation Mincemeat. For this purpose, a dead British serviceman was planted in the sight of the Reich's special services with a set of skilfully fabricated documents describing an alleged British landing operation in the Peloponnese and Sardinia. Judging by these plans, the informational screen for this landing was to be demonstrative preparations for a fake attack on Sicily. The German leadership carried out a set of works to strengthen the Greek coast, redeployed there a tank division, but quite unexpectedly for them the main blow was struck in Sicily. Domestic researchers believe that another textbook example of reflexive control is the American Strategic Defense Initiative program, which forced the Soviet Union to spend significant resources to develop a similar space system. According to a number of foreign researchers, manipulative methods from the field of reflexive control form the basis of Russia's new concept of military action in the 21st century, which in the West has been called the ".». At the same time, some publications have been critical of the applied aspects of this theory, and it has even been called pseudoscientific. References Bibliography Денисов А. А., Денисова Е. В.

In botany, pneumatodes describe air-containing structures in roots. Their function is to allow gaseous exchange in root tissues. This can be beneficial to semi-aquatic plants, such as neo-tropical palms. Plants with photosynthetic roots, such as epiphytic orchids like Dendrophylax lindenii also posess these structures. They play a role in fungal interactions. Etymology The name of the structure is derived from the Greek word πνεῦμα (pneûma), meaning breath and ὁδός (hodós), meaning pathway. Fungal interactions Fungal infections of plants may begin through penetration of the roots through pneumatodes. Functional analogy to stomata Pneumatodes are considered as a special type of cyclocytic stomata. The entire structure may rise above the adjacent epidermis. The pneumatodes may function as double structures for gas exchange and liquid water elimination (guttation). Leafless orchids with photosynthetic roots rely on the gas exchange through pneumatodes for photosynthesis. Taxonomic importance These structures are characteristic for different species and can be used to differentiate between them. These features can be used to distinguish between palm species. They can also be used in the field of paleobotany, as the structures may be preserved in fossilized roots. References

My Long-Haired Life is an album by the American musician Marti Jones, released in 1996. It was released the same year as a live album, Live at Spirit Square, which was recorded in 1990. The albums marked a return from a six-year recording hiatus. My Long-Haired Life'''s title alludes to Jones's career before motherhood. The album's first single was "It's Not What I Want". Production The album was produced by Don Dixon. Eight of the album's 11 songs are covers; the other three were cowritten by Jones and Dixon. The pair duetted on the cover of Joe Tex's "You Got What It Takes"; "Sleep of the Just" is a cover of the Elvis Costello song. Jones played a 1940 000-18 Martin guitar on the album. Critical receptionNo Depression called the album "too adult for alternative rock, too pure pop for adult alternative, too smart for Top 40 ... Banished to eclectic public radio shows forever." The Austin Chronicle wrote that "the real surprise ... is that Jones shines brightest when pouring over her own songs penned with longtime cohort Don Dixon." The St. Louis Post-Dispatch concluded that My Long-Haired Life "is a lean, beautiful record and one of the best of 1996." The Chicago Tribune stated: "Embracing folk, pop and blue-eyed soul, Jones displays a nimble vocal style and a broad range of influences." The San Diego Union-Tribune praised the "Marti-in-Memphis take" on Otis Redding's "Champagne and Wine". The Charleston Daily Mail'' thought that "the tunes showcase Jones' smooth, lilting alto and Dixon's ear-pleasing sense of 'what goes where'." AllMusic called the album "a wonderfully eclectic pool of material." Track listing References 1996 albums Sugar Hill Records albums
Sir John Sherlock (1603-1652) was an Irish landowner, politician and courtier of the seventeenth century. He was born at Littlerath, near Sallins, County Kildare, eldest son of the wealthy merchant Christopher Sherlock and his first wife Eleanor. The Sherlock family had settled in Kildare early in the previous century. He appear to have enjoyed the favour of King Charles I of England: he was knighted in 1635 and became a gentleman of the Privy Chamber. The family was traditionally Roman Catholic, but John conformed to the Church of Ireland. His father had sat in three Irish Parliaments between 1613 and 1642, and John himself entered the Irish House of Commons in 1642 as member for Dublin on the expulsion of Patrick Barnwall. As Roman Catholics were now in effect excluded from Parliament, he was required to take the Oath of Supremacy and apparently did so without any pressure, despite his Catholic background. He died in March 1652 and was buried in St. Michan's Church, Dublin. He married twice: nothing is known of his first wife. His second wife, whom he married in 1634, was Katherine Ashburnham, who outlived him and remarried. He had no children, and his estates passed to his half-brother Phillip.

Mirzapur is the soundtrack for the Amazon Prime Original web television series of the same name, created by Karan Anshuman. The series directed by Anshuman, Gurmmeet Singh and Mihir Desai features Pankaj Tripathi, Shweta Tripathi, Divyendu Sharma, Ali Fazal, Vikrant Massey, Shriya Pilgaonkar, Rasika Dugal, Harshita Gaur and Kulbhushan Kharbanda in the first season, whereas the second season has Vijay Varma, Isha Talwar, Lilliput, Anjum Sharma, Priyanshu Painyuli, Anangsha Biswas and Neha Sargam in prominent roles. The series features 12 songs composed by Anand Bhaskar and John Stewart Eduri, who also composed the background score. It features few songs from the first and second season respectively. It was released on 21 October 2020 by Zee Music Company label. Development Before composing for Mirzapur, Bhasker worked in an advertising agency, who later quit his job to pursue his career as a full-time musician. On bagging the project, he stated in an online news portal that he got a random call from Abbas Khan, the show's head producer, who informed him to the music producer Ankur Tewari. The creative team wanted Bhaskar to pen few songs so that Ankur want to work on the soundtrack. The album had twelve songs compiled for both season one and two. It took him about a year to create all the songs in Mirzapur, however the time for the composition of the songs individually took a few months. He initially planned to release all the songs in March 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, it took him more time for composition. Composition For the songs "Tittar Bittar", Bhaskar roped in his entire band Anand Bhaskar Collective, along with indie musician Isheeta Chakravarty to render vocals for this number. Ginny Diwan, the lyricist of this song penned the lyrics within an hour. Anand stated that "It’s an ‘item song’ from a woman's point of view while a fight is on. I'm grateful the directors supported our wacky ideas". Later he also roped in Shipla Surroch and Keka Ghoshal, who were also independent singers to record the album. Anand Bhaskar planned to compose a wedding song for Guddu (Ali Fazal) and Sweety (Shriya Pilagonkar) which is touted to be a Sufi number. An original song titled "Varoon" was created for the same. Bhasker stated that "Munna Rap" was not initially planned to happen in 2015. He opined that the makers of Mirzapur (Mihir Desai and Gurmmeet Singh) were focusing more on situational songs. He also had a Sufi song ("Varoon"), a Bhojpuri song ("Sajanwa Ki Gunwa") and a Punjabi wedding song ("Saure Chali Ve"). "Munna Rap" was difficult to compose, according to Bhaskar, since he had to mix influences from Uttar Pradesh folk as the modern hip-hop to achieve the right sound. With "Munna Rap" became an exceptional hit upon release Bhaskar stated that the song managed to give a chance to compose in genres that were out of his comfort zone. Being the last song that Bhaskar had composed for the series, the song also had a female version performed by Shilpa Surroch.

Moondog is an album by the American composer and musician Moondog, released by Prestige Records in 1956. Moondog had released the same music on his own label earlier that year as Snaketime Series. Moondog was at the time a street musician in New York City who had attained some recognition as a composer. He was signed by Prestige Record, where Moondog became the first of three Moondog albums produced by Bob Weinstock. It contains eclectic works from Moondog's first decade as a composer. Background Louis "Moondog" Hardin was a blind street musician in New York City who had achieved some publicity and acclaim with a series of recordings in the early 1950s, some on his own labels and some released by established record companies. In 1955 he released a single with the tracks "Caribea" and "Oo Debut". They became the opening tracks of his LP Snaketime Series, released in 1956 on his own label. The same year he signed with Prestige Records which released the album Moondog with the exact same content as Snaketime Series. It became the first of three Moondog albums produced by Bob Weinstock and released by Prestige in the second half of the decade. The material on the three Prestige records represent Moondog's output from his first decade as a composer and his way of performing on the streets during these years. As for his his outlook at the time they were released, they were already outdated; new influences such as Edgard Varèse and the realism of Niccolò Machiavelli were leading him in new directions. Release Although Snaketime Series and Moondog have the same content, Moondog's biographer Robert Scotto says their cover art reveal how they were intended for different audiences. Snaketime Series has a photograph of Moondog happily playing a flute on a rooftop, accompanied by his wife Mary who holds a Japanese short sword, and on the back identifies the other performers as "friends". Moondog shows the composer as a shadowy and imposing loner and contains a text about his "eclectic approach to composition". According to Scotto, Snaketime Series focuses on Moondog as a street performer whereas the Prestige album presents him as a prograssive jazz composer. Reception AllMusic's Richie Unterberger highlighted the unconventional nature of Moondog, which uses a lot of repitition, is driven by maraca and clave beats, uses Asian influences and incorporates animal noises. He called the album unpredictable and idiosyncratic and described the music as "very enigmatic yet attention-holding stuff, ripe for discovery by new generations". Scotto describes it as "Moondog on nature" and contrasts it with the love theme of the second Prestige album. He counts "Caribea", "Tree Trail", "Frog Bog" and Surf Session" to the composer's early, eclectic and dynamic way of working, whereas "To a Sea Horse", "Death, When You Come to Me" and "Trees Against the Sky" point toward his later works, saying they "underscore the power of Moondog's unadorned style". The Encyclopedia of Popular Music rates it four out of five stars, signifying an "excellent" album. Track listing All tracks are written by Louis Hardin, also known as Moondog.

Birdland, Neuburg 2011 is a live album by pianist Cecil Taylor and drummer Tony Oxley. It was recorded at the Birdland Jazz Club in Neuburg an der Donau, Germany in November 2011, and was released in 2020 by Fundacja Słuchaj! Records. The album was one of two that were produced from recordings that Tony Oxley found in his personal archives in 2020, the other being Being Astral and All Registers – Power of Two. Reception Michael Rosenstein, in a review for Point of Departure, stated: "One can hear Taylor working through his 'unit structures,' spontaneously delving into his language of malleable clusters, fluid harmonic constructions, and vigorous sense of flow. Oxley locks right in as an active colleague, finding a gripping balance to Taylor's thrusts and parries, jointly moving toward unequivocal resolution... Taylor didn't perform or record much in his later years, so this document is welcome, particularly as it captures the two musicians at the top of their game." In a review for Stereogum, Phil Freeman wrote: "This duo set... features both men at the top of their game. Oxley's particular contribution — what makes him unlike any other drummer, in free jazz or otherwise — is his crisp use of cymbals and small toms that sound like he's playing a collection of tuned plastic buckets. He cuts right through Taylor's tidal waves of piano, keeping pace with him at all times and offering compelling counter-narratives. The recording, courtesy of German radio, is impossibly clean and detailed; you can literally hear Taylor's piano bench creaking during many sections. This is an essential document for any Taylor fan." Derek Taylor, writing for Dusted Magazine, commented: "A Cecil Taylor concert isn't context conducive to conversation or inattention. Allowing one's mind to wander isn't a luxury to indulge in lest the sequential intricacies of the ensuing architectures become obfuscated. Even within the accepted degree of unspoken decorum, the German assemblage distinguishes itself in its collective engagement. Taylor and Oxley reciprocate with an unbroken, animated dialogue riddled with elaborations and instigations. The minutes evaporate, eventually adding up to an approximate hour that feels much shorter in mental sum. A musical alliance forged three decades earlier on a different German stage remains indisputably intact." In a review for The Whole Note, Ken Waxman remarked: "Taylor was 82 at this gig, yet displayed no loss of interpretative power. Paradoxically in fact, his playing is more adventurous and masterful than on his first LP in 1956. Like a late-career interpretation by Rubinstein or Horowitz, this CD is both defining and definitive." A review at the Marlbank web site stated: "It's a reminder once again how remarkable Taylor's sound was, how in alliance with drummer Tony Oxley in a setting that emphasises the power he exerted at the piano and once again how uncompromising his approach was. Full of an intrepid sense of adventure and a sense of freedom where he can do anything he wants to Taylor teases out the tiniest phrase to expand his improvisations into an infinity and the album has a unity to it, Oxley's free flowing multi-directional style swirling and rising behind him in a thrilling combination."

Kamchatka State Technical University () is a public university located in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia. It was founded in 1942. History The history of the university is usually counted from the moment of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky Marine Fisheries Technical School foundation in 1942. Order of USSR People's Commissariat for Fishery Industry about technical school organization dated January 6, 1942 reached Petropavlovsk only on January 20. In the city began to build classrooms and a dormitory for students. During World War II the Kamchatka fishing industry received an impetus to development: fishing was no longer seasonal, fishing began to be carried out from trawling vessels and not only near the shore, new types of products appeared and new types of fish processing and storage in the form of its freezing began to be introduced. The port of Petropavlovsk was expanded and began to be used as a transshipment base for cargo from the United States and Canada. The main user of the peninsula's natural resources, the Kamchatka Joint Stock Company, needed new qualified personnel. In 1946, the technical school received a new name: "Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Marine Fisheries Technical School of the Ministry of Fisheries Industry of the Eastern regions of the USSR". In February 1952, the technical school was transformed into the Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Naval Military School (PKMU). After the reorganization, students began to be called cadets, and the teaching staff included officers. In 1960, the school began training radio specialists and opened a correspondence department. Engineers in Kamchatka began to be trained even earlier, since 1957, when in Petropavlovsk there was opened a training and consulting center of the Far East Technical Institute of Fish Industry and Economy. Since January 1, 1991, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Nautical College and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Higher Marine Engineering School were transformed into an educational complex "Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Higher Marine School" (PKVMU).

The 1452/1453 mystery eruption is a volcanic eruption that took place in the 1450s. In Antarctic and Greenland ice cores, a major eruption or series of eruptions is revealed as a spike in sulfate concentration, showing that the release in form of particles was higher than any other eruption since. Also, analysis of the ice cores pinpointed the event to late 1452 or early 1453. The volume of expelled matter is more than six times larger than that of the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo and would have caused a volcanic winter, a severe cooling of the entire planet the following three years. The link between the sulphur spike and the Kuwae caldera is questioned in a 2007 study by Károly Németh, et al. proposing the Tofua caldera as an alternative source candidate. Climatic consequences of 1452–1453 event The 1452/1453 ruption has been linked with the second pulse of the Little Ice Age, which had started two centuries earlier with the Samalas eruption and other three unidentified eruptions. A study by Dr Kevin Pang of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory drew on evidence found in tree rings, ice cores and in the historic records of civilizations in Europe and China. Oak panels of British portrait paintings had abnormally narrow rings in 1453–55. In Sweden, grain tithes fell to zero as the crops failed. Bristlecone pines of the Western United States show frost damage in 1453. The growth of European and Chinese trees was stunted in 1453–57. Mexican codices describe autumn frosts in 1453 that affected agriculture throughout central Mexico. According to the history of the Ming Dynasty in China in the spring of 1453, "nonstop snow damaged wheat crops". Later that year, as the dust obscured the sunlight, "several feet of snow fell in six provinces; tens of thousands of people froze to death". Early in 1454, "it snowed for 40 days south of the Yangtze River and countless died of cold and famine". Lakes and rivers were frozen, and the Yellow Sea was icebound out to from shore. The eruption occurred just before the Fall of Constantinople, the last bastion of the once-mighty Byzantine Empire. The Ottoman Turks, led by Sultan Mehmed II, laid siege to the city on 5 April 1453 and conquered it on 29 May 1453. Pang found mention of the volcano's after-effects in chronicles of the city's last days. Historians noted that the city's gardens, that spring, produced very little. On the night of 22 May 1453, the moon, the symbol of Constantinople, rose in dark eclipse, fulfilling a prophecy of the city's demise. On 25 May 1453, a thunderstorm burst on the city: "It was impossible to stand up against the hail, and the rain came down in such torrents that whole streets were flooded". The next day, on 26 May 1453, the whole city was blotted out by a thick fog, a condition that is unknown in that part of the world in that month. When the fog lifted that evening, "flames engulfed the dome of the Hagia Sophia, and lights, too, could be seen from the walls, glimmering in the distant countryside far behind the Turkish camp (to the west)", historians noted. Residents of the city thought the strange light was from reflection from a fire set by the Turkish attackers. Pang said, however, that the "fire" was an optical illusion by the reflection of intensely red twilight glow by clouds of volcanic ash high in the atmosphere. Many such false fire alarms were reported worldwide after the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa in Indonesia. Pang said, "I conclude that Kuwae erupted in early 1453.... The residual volcanic cloud could have made the apocalyptic June 1456 apparition of the Comet Halley look 'red' with a 'golden' tail, as reported by contemporary astronomers".

Anirudh Ravichander composed the film's soundtrack, collaborating with Ajith and Siva for the first time. The album featured four songs written by Madhan Karky, Rokesh, Viveka and Siva, and a theme track, although media falsely reported the film has five songs. The soundtrack album was released on 21 October 2015, while it's audio rights were purchased by Sony Music. Release On 1 May 2015, coincidng with Ajith's birthday, Anirudh reported to social media, that the introduction song and theme music for the film has been completed. "Veera Vinayaka", the introductory number is based on the Vinayagar Chathurthi celebrations, similar to "Maha Ganapathi" from Amarkalam (1999) and "Pillayarpatti Hero" from Vaanmathi (1996). The theme track of the film is rumoured to be titled "Verithanam" which was proved untrue. The album featured songs recorded by Shruti Haasan, and Punjabi-rapper Badshah, in his first Tamil song. The film's incomplete track list featuring the song titles, was released through Anirudh's Twitter handle on 12 October 2015, and the official track list was unveiled shortly after two days. It was reported that the soundtrack album will be released during the composer's birthday on 16 October 2015. But the album was eventually released on 21 October 2015, coinciding with Dusshera. Track listing Reception Reviewing for The Times of India, Sharanya CR wrote "After giving a hit album like Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, Anirudh effortlessly changes his game in this mass album." Behindwoods gave the album, a rating of 2.75 out of 5 saying "Anirudh serves it hot for Ajith fans!" Milliblog reviewed it as a "punchy" and "likeable commercial soundtrack." Indiaglitz gave a rating of 3 out of 5 and stated the album as "Modern", "youthful" and "energetic". In contrast, Bollywoodlife.com gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and stated the album as "okayish", while India.com rated the same and opined that "the album is a let down and the four songs and the theme fail to meet expectations." Reviewing for Moviecrow, Ramesh S Kannan who gave a rating of 2.5 out of 5 stated that "Anirudh has got mired into an unimpressive set of tunes with occasional highs in terms of orchestration. Overall, songs don't do justice to the high expectations or the legacy of the immensely innovative composer."

The 2022 Italian local elections will be held on a weekday between 15 April to 15 June, with a second round to be held two weeks later. Elections will take place in 977 out of 7,904 municipalities, 26 of which are provincial capitals. Mayors and city councils will be elected for the ordinary five-year terms, lasting till 2027. Voting system The voting system is used for all mayoral elections in Italy in the cities with a population higher than 15,000 inhabitants. Under this system, voters express a direct choice for the mayor or an indirect choice voting for the party of the candidate's coalition. If no candidate receives 50% of votes during the first round, the top two candidates go to a second round after two weeks. The winning candidate obtains a majority bonus equal to 60% of seats. During the first round, if no candidate gets more than 50% of votes but a coalition of lists gets the majority of 50% of votes or if the mayor is elected in the first round but its coalition gets less than 40% of the valid votes, the majority bonus cannot be assigned to the coalition of the winning mayor candidate. The election of the City Council is based on a direct choice for the candidate with a maximum of two preferential votes, each for a different gender, belonging to the same party list: the candidate with the majority of the preferences is elected. The number of the seats for each party is determined proportionally, using D'Hondt seat allocation. Only coalitions with more than 3% of votes are eligible to get any seats.

Ben Lewis is a British historian and translator specialising in German political thought between 1871 and 1945. He has a particular interest in the disputed legacy of European social democracy and is known for English-language translations of the works of Karl Kautsky, one of the leading theoreticians of German social democracy. Education Lewis was born in South Wales, studying German at Sheffield and Bonn. He has taught German grammar, language, translation, politics and history at the University of Sheffield, the University of Huddersfield, the Open University and King’s College London. His PhD research at Sheffield focused on historian and philosopher Oswald Spengler and is set to be published in book form in July 2022. Career and research Lewis collections of articles dealing with the history of European social democracy and communism, including Clara Zetkin: Letters and Writings (with Mike Jones); Kautsky on Colonialism (with Mike Macnair); and Zinoviev and Martov: Head to Head in Halle (with Lars T Lih). Lewis sole editor of Karl Kautsky on Democracy and Republicanism. Lewis has a particular standpoint on the legacy of Kautsky and the relative disdain shown by the contemporary left towards his and work. Lewis partly follows the ideas of the historian Lars T Lih in stressing that VI Lenin’s denunciation of the “renegade Kautsky” in 1918 counterposed him to his earlier record “when he was a Marxist”. For Lewis, the pre-1914 Kautsky, “embodied the continuation of Marxism as it became a historical reality for millions of people”. Lewis sees three sources for the latter-day left-wing and academic ignorance of Kautsky: the Soviet Union and former Eastern Bloc’s bastardization of Marxism (and a smaller-scale Trotskyist copy); Western pro-capitalist Cold War historiography; and the neo-Hegelian interpretation of Marxism.

62–72 Tay Street is an historic row of buildings in Perth, Scotland. Designed by local architect John Young, the building is Category B listed, dating to 1881. Standing on Tay Street, the building was originally the home of the Perthshire Society of Natural Science Museum, constructed in memory of Sir Thomas Moncreiffe, 7th Baronet, a past president of the society. The museum housed two exhibits: a local (or regional) collection (which contained a collection of the animals, plants and rocks to be found in Perthshire and the basin of the Tay) and The Type (or Index) Museum, which illustrated the main types of animals, plants and rocks. The museum was extended in 1895 by John Young's son, George Penrose Kennedy Young. In 1902, the museum and its collection were given to the town council. The museum closed in 1934, and its artefacts moved to Perth Museum and Art Gallery on nearby George Street. The building subsequently became a Masonic hall. A Masonic insignia is carved into the doorpiece. The northern end of the building (number 68–72) were destroyed by a fire in 1987. Number 63 is the home of restaurant 63 Tay Street.

Abraham Thomas Bradbury (April 4, 1902 – November 14, 1992) was an American architect best known for his work in Atlanta during the mid-1900s. During this time, he designed many buildings for the government of Georgia around the Georgia State Capitol. His most famous work is arguably the Georgia Governor's Mansion, located in the Buckhead district of the city. While many of his works tended to be in the modernist style, the mansion is a noted example of Greek Revival architecture in Georgia. According to the New Georgia Encyclopedia, he was "perhaps the most prominent architect of government buildings in the mid-twentieth century". Biography Early life Abraham Thomas Bradbury was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on April 4, 1902, to Abraham Bradbury, a contractor, and Hannah Marco. As a young adult, Bradbury studied architecture at the Georgia School of Technology (Georgia Tech). From 1921 to 1923, while still a student, he worked for the Atlanta-based architectural firm of Robert and Company. In 1923, he completed his education at the school and received a certificate. Following this, he moved to Florida, following fellow architect John Llewellyn Skinner, who had served as the head of architecture at the school from 1923 to 1925 before moving to Florida. While Bradbury had hoped to establish an architectural practice in Miami, a hurricane in 1926 prevented him from doing so. In 1927, Bradbury found work with the firm of Warren, Knight, and Davis in Birmingham, Alabama. By 1930, Bradbury was living in Chattanooga, Tennessee, but he returned to Atlanta in the early 1930s to study law. In 1933, he was admitted to the Georgia Bar Association. In 1934, he returned to work for Robert and Company, and in 1935 he worked for a short time with the firm Hentz, Adler & Schutze. During the mid-1930s, he cofounded the firm of Constantine and Bradbury, though this firm was dissolved in 1939. During this time, Bradbury designed the State Office Building, a government building located near the Georgia State Capitol. Throughout his career, Bradbury would work extensively on commissions for government buildings in the city. Also around this time, in 1936, Bradbury married Janette Lane, who was the chair of the board of trustees for the Atlanta Civic Ballet. Additionally, Lane had both a bachelor's and a master's degree in law. The couple would have three children: Janette Lane, Lynda Lane, and Thomas Lane. Bradbury would later remarry. In 1939, he established his own firm as A. Thomas Bradbury, Architect. Following a brief period in 1942 when the firm became Bradbury and Stockman, by 1943 the firm had been renamed to A. Thomas Bradbury and Associates. Modernist architecture Going into the 1940s, Bradbury was a strong embracer of modernist architecture, with many of his buildings from this period forward being built in that style. In 1954, Bradbury and Associates were contracted to design the Agriculture Building and the Law and Justice Building for the government of Georgia, with noted Georgia-based artist Julian Hoke Harris providing some sculptural ornamentation for the latter. Throughout the decade, his firm would design several more buildings for other governmental departments around the capitol in the modernist style, with a notable exception being the building for the Georgia Department of Transportation, which was built in a Bauhaus-inspired international style. From the 1950s through the 1960s, Bradbury designed six government buildings in the area, with their modernist style contrasting with the Beaux-Arts style of the capitol building. In 1957, he served as the lead architect for a renovation project to the capitol building itself. Discussing the style of these buildings, architecture critic Robert M. Craig stated that the "prevailing spirit" of the government buildings "was increasingly abstract, a faceless bureaucracy of officialdom deriving its architectural dress from a reduction of building form to colorless wall plane". Also during the 1950s, Bradbury pushed for changes to Georgia Tech's architectural department, specifically regarding its hiring of certain architectural firms. As a result, Bradbury became the lead architect behind several new projects at his alma mater, and in the following decades his firm would design academic buildings throughout the southeastern United States, arguably most notably the Georgia Mental Health Institute at Emory University. Georgia Archives and the Georgia Governor's Mansion Going into the 1960s, Bradbury would design two of his most notable works: a building for the Georgia Archives and a new Georgia Governor's Mansion. Bradbury began working on the former in 1962 as an extreme example of modernist architecture. The resulting building, completed in 1965, has been described by the New Georgia Encyclopedia as a "monumental box-on-pedestal". A 2011 article in Curbed Atlanta called the "monolithic building" a "modernist masterpiece", while architecture critic Robert M. Craig criticized the building and its overall box-shape as "an elemental form, but a boring one as well". On the other hand, the Georgia Governor's Mansion in Buckhead was designed in the Greek Revival style, modeled after the plantation house Tara from the film Gone with the Wind. The difference in architectural style from Bradbury's normal modernist style made him an odd choice for architect, and according to Curbed Atlanta, the archives building and mansion "present a fascinating dichotomy in architectural styles coming from one man". Work on the mansion lasted from 1964 to 1967. Later life In 1978, after 35 years of working through his own firm, Bradbury sold the firm and retired. He died in Atlanta on November 14, 1992.

The Automat is a 2021 American documentary directed and produced by Lisa Hurwitz and written by Michael Levine. It is about the automats once operated by Horn & Hardart. It features an original song by Mel Brooks. The film premiered at the Telluride Film Festival on September 2, 2021. It was released in the United States on February 18, 2022, by A Slice of Pie Productions. Synopsis Horn & Hardart, founded in 1888 by Joseph Horn and Frank Hardart, was noted for operating the first food service automats in Philadelphia and New York City. The restaurant chain was well known in the U.S. for serving food out of a vending machine for a nickel. The last New York Horn & Hardart Automat closed in April 1991. Appearances Mel Brooks Ruth Bader Ginsburg Elliott Gould Colin Powell Carl Reiner Howard Schultz Production The documentary details the rise and fall of the Horn & Hardart automats. Director Lisa Hurwitz said she was inspired to create the documentary while sitting in an automat during her college days. The film features an original song titled "At the Automat" written and performed by Mel Brooks. Release The film premiered at the Telluride Film Festival on September 2, 2021. It was released in the United States on February 18, 2022, by A Slice of Pie Productions. Reception Box office In the United States and Canada, the film earned $13,917 from the Film Forum theater in its opening weekend. It made $15,013 from three theaters in its second weekend. Reception The Hollywood Reporters Stephen Farber wrote, "Hurwitz supplements the talking heads with tasty archival footage and sharp graphics. Her film is sleek and unpretentious. It wins us over with humor and a pointed touch of melancholy." Varietys Owen Gleiberman said the film "taps into so many resonant aspects of what America used to be that to watch it is to be drawn into an enchanting and wistfully profound time-tripping reverie." Writing for The New York Observer, Rex Reed said it "gets to the core of the Automat's significance, cutting to the core of its social impact on New York and the changing world we live in." The New Yorkers Richard Brody said the best part of the film was "its blend of social and intellectual history with its anecdotal history—its evocation of the links between intention, practice, and experience; its depiction of a largely lost aesthetic of daily life."

St Mark's relics, the purported remains of Saint Mark the Evangelist, are held in St Mark's Basilica in Venice, Italy. Venice 'Translatio' The relics of Saint Mark are recorded in Venice as early as the ninth-century in both the will of Doge Giustiniano Participazio () and the travelogue of a Frankish monk on return from a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. However, the oldest surviving written account of the , the transfer of the relics from Alexandria in Egypt to Venice, dates only to the eleventh century, although earlier writings evidently existed and were used as sources. As narrated, a fleet of ten Venetian trading vessels seeks shelter in the Muslim-controlled city of Alexandria during a storm. This is said to be 'by the will of God'; hence there is no intentional violation of the edict of Emperor Leo V that forbids commercial contact with the Muslims. In Alexandria, two of the Venetian merchants, Buono da Malamocco (Metamaucum) and Rustico da Torcello, go daily to pray at the tomb of Saint Mark, located in a church near the port, and there, they make the acquaintance of Theodore and Stauracius, a priest and monk respectively. Theodore, fearful for the dwindling Christian community under Islamic rule, makes it known that the Caliph Al-Ma'mun has ordered the demolition of the church in order to recover building materials for new mosques, and it is suggested that the body of the saint be safely removed to Venice. To avoid raising suspicion, the body is first substituted with the remains of Saint Claudia, which are present in the church. The relics, placed into a basket and covered in pork, are then successfully smuggled past the Muslim customs officials and embarked on the Venetians' ship, which is preserved from shipwreck during the voyage by Saint Mark who appears and warns the sailors of the imminent danger. Other miracles occur, confirming the authenticity of the relics, until finally the ship arrives in Venice where the body is received by the Bishop of Olivolo and then taken in solemn procession to the Doge. Independently of the pious inventions, the overall narration serves to justify the right of Venice to possess the relics. It simultaneously affirms the primacy of the Venetian church, the rightful successor of the Patriarchate of Aquileia, even over the ancient metropolitan see of Alexandria. As Buono and Rustico declare, evoking the tradition that Mark preached in northern Italy, the Venetians are the "first-born sons" () of the Evangelist. The translation of the relics to Venice is therefore a return of Mark to his rightful resting place. Donald Nicol explained this act as "motivated as much by politics as by piety", and "a calculated stab at the pretensions of the Patriarchate of Aquileia." Instead of being used to adorn the church of Grado, which claimed to possess the throne of Saint Mark, it was kept secretly by Doge Giustiniano Participazio in his modest palace. Possession of Saint Mark's remains was, in Nicol's words, "the symbol not of the Patriarchate of Grado, nor of the bishopric of Olivolo, but of the city of Venice." In his will, Doge Giustiniano asked his widow to build a basilica dedicated to Saint Mark, which was erected between the palace and the chapel of Saint Theodore Stratelates, who until then had been patron saint of Venice. 'Praedestinatio' With the (also ) the possession of Saint Mark's relics by Venice is further legitimized, in this case as the fulfillment of a divine plan. Traceable to Martino da Canal's thirteenth century , the legend in its definitive form narrates that Saint Mark, after his mission to northern Italy and the evangelization of Aquileia, returns to Rome. Passing through the Venetian Lagoon, he beaches his boat for the night, and he has a vision on the very site of the future city of Venice in which an angel appears, greeting him "Peace to you Mark, my Evangelist" (). A prophecy follows announcing that his body will one day find rest in Venice () and that it will be venerated by a virtuous and pious people who will build a glorious and eternal city. 'Inventio' The (also ) confirms the special bond between Saint Mark and the Venetians. The legend concerns the rediscovery of the body at the time of the reconstruction of the church in the eleventh century. Although it is found no earlier than Martino da Canal's thirteenth-century , it may derive from the actual public exposition of Saint Mark's relics prior to their entombment in the new crypt. As narrated, the body of Saint Mark is hidden to prevent theft during work on the church, and after years all knowledge of its hiding place, known only to the Doge and a few trusted officials, is lost. Finally, after three days of fasting and prayer, an earthquake breaks open a pillar, revealing the body, which in later variations reaches out to the pious Venetians. Alexandria The Coptic church believes that the head of Saint Mark remains in a church named after him in Alexandria, and parts of his relics are in Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox Cathedral, Cairo. Every year, on the 30th day of the month of Paopi, the Coptic Orthodox Church celebrates the commemoration of the consecration of the church of Saint Mark, and the appearance of the head of the saint in the city of Alexandria. This takes place inside St Mark's Coptic Orthodox Cathedral in Alexandria. In June 1968, Pope Cyril VI of Alexandria sent an official delegation to Rome to receive a relic of Saint Mark from Pope Paul VI. The delegation consisted of ten metropolitans and bishops, seven of whom were Coptic and three Ethiopian, and three prominent Coptic lay leaders. The relic was said to be a small piece of bone that had been given to the Roman pope by Giovanni Cardinal Urbani, Patriarch of Venice. Pope Paul, in an address to the delegation, said that the rest of the relics of the saint remained in Venice. The delegation received the relic on June 22, 1968. The next day, the delegation celebrated a pontifical liturgy in the Church of Saint Athanasius the Apostolic in Rome. The metropolitans, bishops, and priests of the delegation all served in the liturgy. Members of the Roman papal delegation, Copts who lived in Rome, newspaper and news agency reporters, and many foreign dignitaries attended the liturgy.

The 2022 Ukrainian refugee crisis is a large movement of people from Ukraine during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. It began with the initial invasion of Russian troops on 24 February 2022. Even before the invasion, several European countries were preparing to take in refugees. Hundreds of thousands fled in the first few days after the attack. Most have found refuge in neighboring countries west of Ukraine: Poland, Hungary, Moldova, Romania and Slovakia. Many of those affected are seeking refuge in the homes of relatives who live abroad. The European Union and individual countries have announced that they will be open to Ukrainians so that refugees do not have to go through an asylum procedure. Railroad companies in several states such as Poland and Germany allow Ukrainian refugees to travel by train free of charge. Legal Officials of the European Union and individual states have discussed invoking the Temporary Protection Directive for the first time in its history so that the refugees do not have to go through the standard European Union asylum procedure. Railway companies in several countries, including Germany and Austria, are allowing Ukrainian refugees to travel by train for free. Numbers Figures on people fleeing Ukraine can change rapidly and are often only estimates. Travels from country to country are not necessarily registered officially. Ukrainians can travel to some countries in Europe without a visa. They may be allowed to stay in the country for an extended period, such as 90 days, without special permission. Elsewhere, they must apply for asylum. Moreover, crossing the border into a country does not mean that people will stay in that country (permanently). The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs estimated on 27 February that there will be 7.5 million domestic refugees in two months in Ukraine. 18 million people are affected by the conflict and 12 million people will need health help. Up to four million people are fleeing before the war. At the United Nations Refugee Conference, on Sunday, 27 February 2022 it was announced that since the war over 368,000 people from Ukraine have fled. With more than 600,000 refugees believed to have fled Ukraine to neighboring countries as of 1 March 2022, the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) feared the situation could degenerate into "Europe's largest refugee crisis this century". Accommodations and aid The co-founder of Airbnb and two other officials sent letters to European leaders of nations that share a border with Ukraine offering the companies support in housing refugees temporarily. The scheme would be funded by donations made through the sites Refugee Fund and with support of hosts on the platform. Organizations such as UNICEF, the United Nations Refugee Agency, International Rescue Committee, United Ukrainian American Relief Committee and others began accepting monetary donations for helping refugees and those affected by the crisis. Others such as the Kyiv Independent began GoFundMe campaigns to raise money for specific causes or calls for physical items to be donated by an individual. Countries Belgium Belgian State Secretary for Asylum and Migration Sammy Mahdi said on February 25, 2022, that Belgium stands in solidarity with Poland and Hungary. However, he called for Europe to coordinate the reception. Two days later, Development Minister Meryame Kitir announced that three million euros will be allocated for additional humanitarian aid to Ukraine. Netherlands Due to previous visa regulations with Ukraine, Ukrainians in search of safety can easily take the plane to the Netherlands and stay for three months. During this time, they basically have to find their own accommodation. Asylum centers are already "overcrowded." Moreover, Ukraine is still considered a safe country of origin, Petra Vissers summarized the legal situation on February 25. A further disadvantage for those affected, she said, is that life in the asylum center entails restrictions: there is an obligation to register, people cannot cook for themselves, and it is often difficult for children to attend school. State Secretary for Migration Eric van der Burg said that the principle had always been emphasized that refugees should be received in their own region, if possible. "Now Europe is the region." At the time, 27 February, fewer than 50 refugees had arrived in the Netherlands from Ukraine. Poland As early as February 15, Poland was expecting a possible Russian attack. The government asked communities to prepare for up to a million refugees. As of February 27, it was reported that more than 280,000 refugees had crossed the border into Poland. At the border crossing, non-European students from Ukrainian universities complained about "racist" unequal treatment. Romania Romanian media report that the first Ukrainians have reached the country. Romania can receive 500,000 refugees if necessary, Romanian Defense Minister Vasile Dîncu had announced on 22 February, 2022. Two days later the first refugees have arrived. France France "will take its part" in welcoming Ukrainian refugees: this announcement by Emmanuel Macron on Friday February 25, relayed by the mayors of metropolises and communities, was welcomed by associations of aid to migrants, even if they believe it is too early to assess needs. Latvia On 24 February, the Government of Latvia approved a contingency plan to receive and accommodate approximately 10,000 refugees from Ukraine, and two days later the first refugees, assisted by the Latvian Samaritan Association, began arriving. Several non-governmental organizations, municipalities, schools and institutions also pledged to provide accommodation. On 27 February, around 20 volunteer professional drivers departed to Lublin with donated supplies, bringing Ukrainian refugees to Latvia on their way back. Slovakia Since Saturday, February 26, 2022 at 6 a.m., the Slovakian police counted 12,400 refugees at the three border crossings with Ukraine. Passports were not required, anyone at the three border crossings is allowed to enter. About half came via Vyšné Nemecké. A day later, around 900 vehicles, nine buses and around 1,000 pedestrians are waiting in the afternoon. The waiting time is up to ten hours. Switzerland It is already possible for a Ukrainian citizen (with a biometric passport) to enter Switzerland without a visa. The length of stay is three months. Justice Minister Karin Keller-Sutter declared on 28 February that in future refugees without passports would be welcome too. Residence should no longer be limited in time. The federal government and the cantons will quickly provide accomodation for nine thousand people for refugees. According to SRF, all political parties are in favour of a quick admission of Ukrainian refugees. Non-native Ukrainian population Claims of unequal treatment by border guards and other authorities by non-native Ukrainian refugees were raised a few days into the crisis. Many foreigners claim to have been forced to the back of queues, with some alleging being beaten and clothing being torn by guards, however this is not a situation seen by all. The Polish border police said that it helps all people fleeing Ukraine. Nationality does not matter. It is not true that Africans are being turned back for racist reasons. Representatives of Ghana and Somalia said they had no information about problems of their compatriots from Ukraine. The African Union, on the other hand, complained about related reports and called attempts to prevent Africans from crossing the border racist and not in line with international law.
