https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Scott-Taggart
John Scott-Taggart
Wing-Commander John Scott-Taggart (1897 – 1979) was a British radio engineer who served with distinction in both World Wars, applying his technical expertise firstly in radio, and then in radar, to the war efforts. However, he was best known for his work in the inter-war years, where he became a leading writer of magazine articles and books on radio topics, gaining particular notability with the public for the many popular radio sets he designed for the large home constructor market. Biography Early years Born in 1897, John Scott-Taggart was educated at Bolton School, various technological institutions, King's College London and University College London. First World War On the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, Scott-Taggart enlisted with the 2nd and 4th Seaforth Highlanders even though he had not yet reached the 18 years of age required by the army at that time. He was initially sent for training, where he passed the exams required to become "First Class Instructor in Signalling". Promoted to Sergeant-Instructor, he stayed on at the Scottish Command School of Signalling where he trained other recruits in army communication techniques. In 1916, he was sent to the Western Front in time for the First Battle of the Somme. Transferred to the Corps of the Royal Engineers in 1917, he worked in the Research Station under Major Rupert Stanley, before receiving his commission and being deployed to a Canadian field gun battery where he participated in the Battle of Vimy Ridge. Having been Wireless Officer to various units, including the 55th (West Lancashire) Division, in late 1917 he was appointed Instructor in Wireless, First Army, Western Front. In 1918, he was mentioned in despatches, and was later awarded the Military Cross (MC) in connection with his wireless work during a crucial phase of the Battle of the Lys. Notwithstanding being on active service, Scott-Taggart wrote several of the countless technical articles he would produce during his life whilst serving on the Western Front, the first being published in Wireless World in October 1917. Electronics career Having been demobilised, in the summer of 1919 he joined Ediswan as the head of valve manufacturing at their Ponders End works. In that year he invented the biotron, a negative resistance device. However, in 1920 he left Ediswan for the Radio Communication Company where for four years he was the Head of the Patent Department and a Research Engineer. In 1922 he founded the Radio Press Ltd., with his employer owing 75% of the stock and himself the remainder. Under his stewardship, the publisher issued a large number of books for the radio enthusiast, firstly those written by Scott-Taggart himself, and latterly by other experts in the field. They also produced a number of journals on the subject, two of which Scott-Taggart edited personally – Modern Wireless (Mar-1923-), and Wireless Weekly (Apr-1923-). It was in the first of these titles that he published the first of a series of radio set designs that made him a household name with wireless constructors throughout the United Kingdom. In addition to his writings for the Radio Press, he wrote a weekly column for the Daily Express. At the end of 1926, he sold his wireless publication business to the Amalgamated Press. He then read successfully for the Bar, being called up to it in 1928. However, although fully qualified, he never practised as a Barrister. He spent the next four years first learning to fly, then lived life as something a gentleman aviator developing skills that he was able to use in the service of his country during the Second World War. In 1932 he returned to wireless journalism when he was engaged by Amalgamated Press to work on their stable of magazines for the radio constructor, including two of those he had originally launched. It was in this role that he resumed his series of increasingly successful set designs for the home constructor. Second World War During the Second World War (1939–1945), John: – Served with RAF in France, 1939–1940 – Staff Officer, Air Ministry, responsible for radar training in RAF, 1940–1941 – Senior Technical Officer, No 73 Wing, responsible for radar stations in most of England and Wales, 1943–1945 Later years He was demobilised from RAF in 1945 and was with the Admiralty Signal and Radar Establishment until he retired in 1959. A Fellow of the Institute of Radio Engineers and a Fellow of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers he was awarded OBE in 1975 and died 1979. He was survived by his wife Elizabeth.

It was won by the Labour candidate Joseph Gibbins. This was the first time a Labour candidate had won the seat. Background Although the West Toxteth constituency had been held by the Conservatives with a majority of 4,821 votes at the 1922 general election, the party's majority had been reduced to just 139 votes in the 1923 election. On both those occasions Gibbins had been Labour's unsuccessful candidate. Result Aftermath Although nationally the Conservatives won a landslide victory at the general election a few months later, in West Toxteth Gibbins managed to again defeat White, albeit with a much reduced majority of 379 votes. The Conservatives would not regain the seat until the National Government's landslide victory in 1931, when Gibbins was heavily defeated. However he would recapture the seat at another by-election in 1935. References 1924 elections in the United Kingdom 1924 in England 1920s in Liverpool West Toxteth, 1924

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music%20School%20of%20Rhodes%20%28Greece%29
Music School of Rhodes (Greece)
The Music School of Rhodes (Μουσικό Σχολείο Ρόδου) is a school located on Rhodes Island in the Koskinou region of Greece, which specialises in teaching music. The current head teacher of the school is Christos Theologos. It opened in September 1993 with only 28 pupils and 10 teachers. At the end of summer 2013, the school was recorded to have a roll of 231 pupils and 68 teachers. Νοw ths school have 320 pupils and 78 teachers. The school is made up of 15 sections of which 9 are for pupils in the first 3 years of high school and 6 for the use of pupils in the last 3 years of high school. Although the school mainly specialises in music, other subjects are also taught to pupils such as maths, physics, literature and languages. The school is open from Monday to Friday between the hours of 08:00 to 15:00. History The opening of the music school came about due to the demand for a music school from the Music School's Arts Committee (a department of the Education Ministry). When the school was founded in 1993, it had only 10 teachers: P. Giannakitsa (Philologist/Literature Teacher), T. Tsimpouri (Piano), E. xatzinikolaou (Piano), K. Loukas (Mathematician), B. Kattavenakis (Musician), H. Anastasiadis (Lyra), S. Perselis (Lyra), G. Paragios (Lyra), E. Statha (Piano), I. Dermitzakis (Violin) and N. Zervos (HeadMaster). The announcement of the creation of the school received lots of negative reactions from the public. Many people felt uninterested or suspicious about the idea. Others were doubtful at the idea of a school which was so different from any other schools, specialising in one particular subject. First Year During the school's first year of operation, the school had problems regarding the housing of students. For the first few days of operation, the housing for the school was situated in Rodini park. However it was later transferred to the 6th Lykeio of Rhodes (also known as Ikokiriki). Conflict between the Music School of Rhodes and the admission of the 6th school of Rhodes caused the Music school to transfer to an area called 'Therme'. Second Year After the problems with the housing and conflict with the 6th school of Rhodes, the music school was eventually moving slowly back on track. During the second year of operation, the school building was divided into 3 sections for smoother running of teaching. In this case, there are 2 sections of the building that was provided to the first year pupils and the last section was allocated to the use of second years, since there were 46 1st year pupils and 25 2nd year pupils at the time. However, the housing problem was still one of the major issues to the school, owing to several numbers of insufficient classrooms, the teachers have spent most of their time teaching at the kitchen or in the yard if the condition allowed. In addition to the smooth running, more teachers have joined the School: M.Pavlidou, M.Sotiraki (Philologist/Literature Teacher), H.Xatzinikolaou (Physicist), G.Stintixaki (German Language), E.Volonaki (Piano), A.Santoriniou (Piano), E.Ioannidou, P.Kouvaras, G.Kotis, S.Xatzinikolaou, Xatzipapas (Theatre), T.Athanasopoulos (Art). Third Year As the time moved onto the third year of operation, the school has found the way to temporarily solve its housing problem. As a result, the location of the school was transferred from 'Therme' to “Gold Court” at Afantou area. As the school was into a more stable situation and the buildings was in good condition, the 4 sections of the building were allocated as 1 section for the 1st years, 2 sections for 2nd years (as there are more pupils) and finally 1 section for the 3rd years. As a success achievement of the year, the school won the 2nd award at the 1st PanHellenic music competition for their Byzantine Choir and 1st place in both piano and European Choir. Recent The overall structure of the high school has been completed with the addition of 4th, 5th and 6th years, the school has gained support from EU funds for their new building at 'Asgourou' (which is their current location ). As a massive improvement at the end of the year the school has participated in the 2nd PanHellenic music competition and has taken four 1st places in different areas. Events The music school regularly hosts events and festivals for the public to attend. The events that are held vary from operas to concerts. Other events are culturally themed such as the "Dancing and Singing in Asia minor" event. Another event which featured at the Music School of Rhodes Island was the "Music Stand" event which took viewers into Alexandros Papadiamantis' word of romantic short stories. The Music School of Rhodes also hold a music festival every year in which its students get to take part in the Music Festival The music school, along with the Department of the Dodecanese of the South Aegean Region and the Municipal Culture Sports Organisation of the Municipality of Rhodes (DOPAR), is set to be hosting a festival showcasing the Creation of Contemporary Music. The main purpose of the event is to allow young musicians to express themselves and show their talents by providing them with the best possible opportunity for expression. All that is required to allow students to perform at the festival is that they have passed the music audition before the festival begins. This festival is the 3rd of its kind following the success of the 2nd festival which was organised by the Region of Southern Aegean, Department of Culture, and took place in 2011. The 2nd Festival of Contemporary Music Creation lasted 2 days and consisted of 25 bands, consisting of the Dodecanese, performing over the 2 days. The 1st festival, lasting only 1 day, brought 1000 spectators and the 2nd festival brought more than 1500 spectators over the 2 days it ran for. The reason as to why the music school itself was chosen to hold all 3 of the festivals is due to the fact that its location combines historical monuments and natural beauty providing the perfect backdrop to the festivals. The 3rd festival of the Creation of Contemporary Music is divided into 3 phases. The 1st phase involves the students, who wish for their bands to participate, submitting applications for performing in the festival. The 2nd phase is where the bands are invited to the hearing in the Music School's auditorium where they perform in front of The Arts Committee of the festival. The committee then evaluate each band determining whether or not they reach the artistic criteria required to move on to the 3rd phase. The 3rd phase involves all of the groups who the Arts Committee determined suitable being given their performance slots. The Arts Committee use the 3 phases to achieve their goal in ensuring the hard working bands are able to go on to perform at the festival and showcase their talents. For the last three years, the Music School organizes the music festival "Rhodes: Crossroads of Cultures and Partnerships of Music Schools", with the participation of many different musical ensembles from various music schools.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moshe%20Gutnick
Moshe Gutnick
Moshe D. Gutnick is an Australian Orthodox rabbi, and a member of the ultra Orthodox Chabad Hasidic movement. Rabbi Gutnick is a senior member of the Beth Din (rabbinical court) in Sydney, Australia. Gutnick is currently President of the Rabbinical Council of Australia and New Zealand. Gutnick is the head of the NSW Kashrut Authority. He formerly served as the rabbi of the Bondi Mizrachi Synagogue in Sydney. Early life Gutnick was born in Australia. His father, born in Ukraine, was Rabbi Chaim Gutnick, a Holocaust survivor. Rabbi Mordechai Gutnick and Rabbi Joseph Gutnick are older brothers of his. He was educated at the Yeshiva College and Yeshiva Gedolah in Melbourne, Australia. He continued his Rabbinic studies in New York and Montreal, and received semikhah (ordination as a rabbi) from both the Rabbinical College of Canada and the Central Lubavitch Yeshiva Tomchei Tmimim in New York. Gutnick also received Yoden Yoden (Yadin Yadin) (ordination as a Dayan (rabbinic judge)) from Talmudist Rav Pinchus Hirschprung as well as Rabbi Zelig Sharfstein. Sydney Beth Din Gutnick serves as a senior member of the Sydney Beth Din, which he joined in 1993. One of the roles of the Beth Din is Jewish divorces and solving gett refusal. Gutnick has been aggressive in his condemnation of the practice of gett refusal, and is a strong supporter of Halachic prenuptial agreements. The Beth Din is also responsible for conversions. The Sydney Beth Din are one of the few in the world that is approved to perform conversions by the Israeli Chief Rabbinate. Gutnick worked with the Halachic Organ Donor Society (HODS) in creating an Australian HODS card. The Sydney Beth Din deemed brain death, rather than cardio-respiratory failure, as halachic death. This allowed for a much higher success rate of organ transfer in the event of a transplant. In 2018 Gutnick and three other members of the Rabbinic Council of Australia and New Zealand (RCANZ) were found in contempt of court and fined in NSW’s Supreme Court in Australia after pressuring a member of their community into approaching them to resolve a commercial business dispute in the Beth Din in accordance with Jewish law, instead of in the secular courts. At the time of the conviction, Gutnick was the president of RCANZ. NSW Kashrut Authority Gutnick is the head of the NSW Kashrut Authority (KA), the most widely known kosher authority in New South Wales, which operates under the auspices of the Beth Din. Gutnick criticized the Australian Jewish News in 2012 for printing advertising of non-kosher products, such as non-kosher challah to be used on Shabbat. In 2014, a restaurant supervised by the KA purchased meat sourced from Melbourne when it was not able to purchase the same cut slaughtered locally. This was in breach of the restaurant's contract with the KA, under which only meat prepared under the supervision of the KA can be used. Gutnick had the offending meat confiscated. The Kashrut Commission of Inquiry alleged in 2015 that the organisation lacked "transparency in relation to operations and finances", the community was not represented, and the meat suppliers were determined by factors outside of Jewish law, thus raising the prices of the meat to 30% more than in Melbourne. In 2018, KA threatened to remove its certification from Our Big Kitchen if they allowed a caterer to use their kitchens to prepare food that KA had not certified as kosher. The caterer had moved to the KA's rival authority, Community Kashrut, for some of their certification. Gutnick declared food prepared under the rival authority to be non-kosher. Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse Gutnick was called in early 2015 to testify before the Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. There he said, "I believe the cover-ups and bullying and intimidation that has gone on ... represents the antithesis of the teachings of Chabad and Judaism and orthodoxy." He acknowledged that the Orthodox Chabad community in Australia was guilty of covering up sex crimes committed in the community, and pressuring victims and their families not to report the crimes to the police. Gutnick said that people reporting abuse were ostracized mosers ("informers"). He said "a culture of cover-up, often couched in religious terms, pervaded our thinking and our actions." He said that rabbis in these situations had misused their power, and that anyone who insists a child sexual abuse victim should go first to a rabbi rather than the police is not doing so out of religious reasons but trying to "hush it up, to cover it up, to prevent the victim from finding redress. There is no doubt at all: Mesirah ['informing'] has no application whatsoever to instances of child sexual abuse. To use mesirah in this way is an abomination." Gutnick also lamented that there was no formal training for rabbis on how to handle reported abuse. Manny Waks, an advocate for victims, said, "Today, Rabbi Moshe Gutnick restored my faith in ultra-Orthodox Judaism. For the first time ever the reform that is so critical seems much closer. Thank you Rabbi Gutnick. Hopefully the rest of the Orthodox Rabbinate will now follow suit. What an incredible day for justice." Dispute with Bondi Mizrachi Synagogue Gutnick was the rabbi at the Bondi Mizrachi Synagogue in North Bondi from 1987 to 2009. After seeing their numbers fall, the synagogue tried a number of ways to change the situation. This included an ill-fated attempt to merge with the Great Synagogue. The synagogue then decided to make Gutnick redundant, since his wages were becoming a financial burden on the synagogue. Gutnick argued that the board had no right to make this decision and that communal rabbis have life tenure. The only way to remove a rabbi, he contended, is via a Beth Din. He successfully obtained an interlocutory injunction in 2009 from the NSW Supreme Court, preventing his dismissal pending the ruling of a Beth Din "in accordance with Jewish law". The case was taken to the London Beth Din. Gutnick emerged with a ruling in his favour, and a payout including costs of close to $1 million. Other activities Gutnick wrote in defense of Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, who wrote Kosher Jesus in 2012, saying that while he agreed with some of what Boteach said and disagreed with other points: "The suggestion that [Boteach] is a heretic is simply ludicrous". In 2016, Gutnick said Nelson Mandela "was truly one of the righteous of the nations. His greatness lay not in his physical strength or power but in his greatness of spirit." Gutnick is a former president of the Rabbinical Council of NSW. He is a former head of the Organisation of Rabbis of Australasia (ORA). After ORA was closed down subsequent to several of its members were forced to resign because they were implicated in abuse by the Royal Commission into Child Sex Abuse and reformed as the Rabbinical Council of Australia and New Zealand, Gutnick was elected in 2018 to lead the new body. Gutnick is opposed to same sex marriage, and has signed letters to parliament and written articles expressing his position. He said that while on the one hand he believes "there are great same-sex parents who will raise children wonderfully," he can’t support same sex marriage because the Biblical Jewish definition of marriage is between a man and a woman. He said: "a fundamental principle of my faith ... is that all human beings are created equal in the image of God and therefore have inalienable rights," and that accordingly he would always fight for LBGTQ rights, despite his position on marriage. He also believes that "There is no place for "homophobia" in authentic Judaism." He also defended rabbinic opposition to one aspect of the Safe Schools program, aimed at reducing bullying including bullying based on gender identity, by celebrating and teaching in the earliest stages of child education that homosexual behaviour is normative, saying "While bullying in any form is abhorrent, including the bullying of someone because of their sexual orientation, the solution is not to 'celebrate' an orientation that is against Torah teaching." Gutnick has defended Halal certification against its detractors, saying that if that were to be said about kosher it would be considered anti-Semitic, and it was an attack on religious rights. In April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, synagogue services were suspended in Australia; Gutnick commented, "We're taking a very strong stance, stronger than the government's in terms of gatherings. We're better safe than sorry."

1903 Liverpool West Derby by-election
The 1903 Liverpool West Derby by-election was held on 20 January 1903 after the death of the incumbent Conservative MP Samuel Wasse Higginbottom. It was retained by the Conservative candidate Watson Rutherford. Vacancy The by-election in West Derby was caused by the death in December 1902 of Conservative MP, Samuel Wasse Higginbottom. He had won the seat unopposed in the previous election in 1900. Candidates Several names were mentioned as possible candidates for the Conservative Party, among them the ship-owner Sir Alfred Lewis Jones, the former Lord Mayor of Liverpool Alderman Charles Petrie, and the incumbent Lord Mayor Watson Rutherford. Rutherford was a native of Liverpool, head of an important legal firm in the city, had been a member of the City Council since 1895, and Lord Mayor of Liverpool since November 1902. He was unanimously elected as the candidate by the local conservative council on 5 January, and accepted the nomination the following day, when he also resigned as Lord Mayor. The Liberal Party approached several people as potential candidates, including Hon. Richard Frederick Molyneux who declined. It was also reported that Rev. Dr. Aked of the Pembroke Baptist Chapel, an outspoken opponent of the recently ended Second Boer War was approached as an independent liberal candidate. They eventually chose as candidate the president of their local West Derby Division, Richard Durning Holt, at a meeting on 8 January. He was a Liverpool shipowner and member of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board. The joint committee of the Labour Representative Committee and Liverpool Trades Council decided in a meeting on 11 January to not contest the election. Issues In an election address the day after accepting the nomination, Holt mentioned the issues most important to him. He referred to the recently passed Education Act, and promised to ′use his best effort to abolish all tests for teachers, and to secure complete and exclusive public control of all elementary schools to be henceforth entirely maintained at the public expense.′ He declared himself a staunch supporter of free trade, and wanted growth in national expenditure to be checked. On the question of Irish Home Rule, he wanted to ′give the people of Ireland the management of purely Irish affairs, subject to the absolute supremacy of the Imperial Parliament.′ He advocated temperance legislation, and as to trade unions, urged that the law should completely establish the right of all workers to combine for the purpose of collective bargaining as to conditions of pay and work. Rutherford commented the following day, defending the government′s spending by referring to military and naval expenditure arising from the recently ended Second Boer War. He gave strong support for the Education Act, and on the question of Irish Home Rule attacked the Liberal party position as promises they could not deliver. Listing social issues he found important, he wanted Parliament to discuss subjects like housing, disablement and old age pensions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1902%20Liverpool%20East%20Toxteth%20by-election
1902 Liverpool East Toxteth by-election
The 1902 Liverpool East Toxteth by-election was held on 6 November 1902 after the resignation of the Conservative MP Augustus Frederick Warr. The seat was retained by the Conservative candidate Austin Taylor. Vacancy The by-election in East Toxteth was caused by the resignation on 27 October 1902 of the sitting Conservative MP, Augustus Frederick Warr. Warr was a solicitor who had held the seat since he was elected unopposed in a by-election in 1895. He was re-elected unopposed in the general election in 1900, but found that the increasing workload of Parliament was incompatible with his legal work in Liverpool and his wife's long-term illness. He resigned his seat on 27 October 1902 by the procedural device of accepting appointment as Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds, triggering the by-election. Candidates The Conservative party discussed several possible candidates, and at a meeting of the local party on 27 October selected as candidate Austin Taylor, head of the steamship company of Messrs. Hugh Evans and Co. Taylor was a prominent member of the Liverpool City Council and Chairman of the Laymen′s League. The selection was somewhat controversial among local members, and Peter McGuffie, another Conservative city councillor, was approached to contest the division as an Independent Conservative, but declined in a letter to newspapers printed 29 October. The Liberal party candidate was Herbert Rathbone, a city councillor of Liverpool and nephew of recently deceased Liberal MP William Rathbone (1819–1902). Issues Education Following the successful campaign in the Leeds North by-election in July 1902, the Liberal party spent much time on the government’s plans for an Education Bill to replace school boards with local education authorities, which included proposals to bring church schools into the public system. Many Liberals were strongly nonconformist and the idea that Church of England and Roman Catholic schools should be funded from the rates, a form of local taxation, was anathema to them. It provided the battle slogan ‘Rome on the Rates’ and united the party against the government. The bill was debated in the House as the campaign in East Toxteth took place. Rathbone ″strongly denounced″ the bill, whereas Taylor said he would assist in passing the amended version. Ireland Taylor spoke out as a stanch opponent of Home Rule for Ireland, while Rathbone argued for devolution which would ″satisfy the reasonable aspiration of the Irish people and at the same time add to the efficiency of the Imperial Parliament″. Other issues Taylor advanced the government′s naval policy, highlighting the ″duty of the nation at all costs see to it that the high roads of the sea was kept open for the safe passage of our ships and the safe transport to our shores of the means of sustenance for the population.″ Result The election result was announced on the evening of November 6, with the Conservative candidate Austin Taylor the winner. The fairly close race in a Conservative district was explained by local causes (the split among conservatives), and not as another Liberal win (they had won another by-election on the previous day). Austin was re-elected unopposed in the 1906 general election, but later the same year resigned the Conservative whip and joined the Liberal party.

John Edward Jones (10 December 1905 – 30 May 1970), known as J. E. Jones, was a Welsh political organiser. Born in Melin-y-Wîg near Corwen in Denbighshire, Jones studied at Bala Grammar School and the University College of Wales, Bangor. There, he was elected leader of the Students' union, and conducted a successful campaign to have Welsh made an official language there, alongside English. Jones was active in Y Tair G, which in 1925 became a component of the new Plaid Cymru. In 1928, he became a teacher in London, and he founded a successful branch of Plaid there; as a result, in 1930, he was appointed General Secretary of the party and returned to Wales. In this role, he was responsible for organising party conferences and rallies, and supporting local branches. Jones only stood for election once – at the 1950 general election in Caernarfon, but was publicly best known for putting together party press releases, and also for his broadcasting on the topic of gardening. He stood down in 1962, becoming an official adviser to the party. While campaigning in the 1970 general election, Jones was killed in a car accident.

1887 Liverpool Exchange by-election
The 1887 Liverpool Exchange by-election was held on 26 January 1887 after the death of the incumbent Liberal MP David Duncan. It was retained by the Liberal candidate Ralph Neville, with a narrow majority of 7 votes. Goschen was Chancellor of the Exchequer. He had voted against Gladstone's Home Rule Bill in 1886 and became a Liberal Unionist. He subsequently lost his seat at Edinburgh East at the 1886 general election. Lord Randolph Churchill resigned as Chancellor of the Exchequer on 22 December 1886. The Marquess of Salisbury appointed Goschen to the post on 14 January 1887. He became the sole Liberal Unionist in an otherwise Conservative government. Goschen was therefore Chancellor outside the House of Commons and contested the by-election to return to the House.

Konstantin Fam
Konstantin Fam aka Costa Fam (rus. Константи́н Фа́м, born 13 July 1972, Pervomayskiy, USSR) is a Ukrainian born independent director, producer, screenwriter. His movie "Shoes" produced in the memory of the Holocaust victims was the only Russian short movie applying for the Academy Awards in 2013. Early life He was born in the town of Pervomayskiy in Kharkiv oblast in Ukrainian SSR. His father, Nguen (Pham) Kong Tak, is a Vietnamese political immigrant, who was sent to study in the Soviet Union personally by Ho Chi Minh. Members of the father's family are heroes of the First Indochina War. His father spent more than 10 years in resistance guerrilla group. During his studies as an engineer he was drafted to the war with USA. He sought political asylum in the Soviet Union, thus he was not allowed to live in big cities. The family was under the KGB supervision so that any movement required special permission. His mother, Svetlana Naumovna Malkina, was Jewish. The majority of his maternal relatives perished in the Holocaust. His mother had been hiding her Jewishness for her whole life. His parents' stories influenced Konstantin's creative world outlook. Konstantin lived in the town of Pervomayskiy until the age of 15 and then entered the Dnipropetrovsk State Theatre School, for the Puppetry Arts. According to the director, he dreamed of acting classes, for puppets were considered to be not prestigious. However, Fam admitted years later that this specialty provided him with the extensive experience in the construction of music, staging, as well as in the ability to animate inanimate objects. Subsequently, this experience was useful when shooting "Shoes". Early career After graduation, he moved to Tbilisi for working in the theater. After military conflict outbreak in Georgia in 1991, he moved to Chernihiv, where he worked as an actor in a local theater. However, roles offered to Konstantin were often biased by his Asian appearance and didn't match his ambitions. In 1992, he moved to Moscow and started working on television projects in various roles. In 1997, at the fourth attempt he entered Russian State Institute of Cinematography (VGIK), the Course of Screenwriting headed by the great Valentin Yezhov. After two years studying he decided to leave it and concentrate on business development. He started studying film equipment rental, as well as filming TV commercials, advertisements, music videos and image movies. In 1998, he was a writer of children's comic film magazine "Yeralash", as well as a director. In the 2000s ran a large cinemachinery leasing business also shooting television commercials. During this period, Constantine acted in various production roles, ranging from small roles to producing and directing. The company was closed due to 2008 crisis. Constantine had a dream to earn the necessary amount of money, to shoot a comedy based on his own scenario and start working on his own projects. Creative period From the sixteen, Costa has been forming the list of projects he would like to implement. In 2008, he became the second director and screenwriter of the comedy club, Women's League, having worked for two seasons. After this, Konstantin acted as a director of 10 episodes sketch show "Caution: Children!" His love to the sketches Konstantin refers to the manifestation of his national identity. Willing to develop himself as a filmmaker, he entered the NYFA, took all of the film production courses. "Hedgehog" Education ended with 13-week production period, during which a short film based on the story of Grigori Gorin was shot. In the center of the story there is a boy, who changed a winning lottery ticket on the Hedgehog. Boy's father was trying to return the ticket by all means. The story gained the festival success, and then has been invited to many showings. It won the Grand Prix Festival in São Paulo in Brazil. The movie was taken to the Short Film Corner program in Cannes. "Witnesses" "Witnesses" is the first feature film in former Soviet Union produced in memory of the Holocaust victims. Witnesses is the historical drama that consists of three short films Shoes, Brutus and Violin united by the idea to be produced in memory of the greatest tragedy of the 20th century. The project is being elaborated in the memory of the perished people because there is hardly a single Jewish family that didn't lose their loved ones on the run of the mass destruction in the 20th-century catastrophe. The key purpose of the project is to spread the knowledge about the history and to remind the young generation of the tragedy in order to prevent it in the future. "Shoes" The film "Shoes" is the first novel of the trilogy "Witnesses". "Witnesses" is the first feature film in former Soviet Union produced in memory of the Holocaust victims. During the filming Costa has spent four months in Europe. SHOES traces the personal history of a Jewish girl from the point of view of a pair of red shoes. Starting from the shop window where the shoes were purchased and ending at a mountain of discarded shoes of the victims, the viewer witnesses the effects of the tragedy of fascism. The film is the winner of many awards and film festivals, it is invited to the Visual Centre Yad Vashem (Israel), along with the outstanding films about the Holocaust made by Spielberg, Polanski, Benigni. During the 8th International Video Festival Empire (Italy) the film awarded the Gran Prix Silver reel of film as one of the most important in cultural and education spheres.

Peter Ax
Peter Ax (March 29, 1927 – May 2, 2013) was a German zoologist. His main work concerned the investigation of interstitial fauna and the exposition of a phylogenetic system for the animals. Biography Peter Ax attended the Oberschule für Jungen in Hamburg until 1944 and subsequently completed his military service. He studied biology at the University of Kiel from 1946, and graduated with a doctorate in 1950. From 1952 to 1961, he was employed as a scientific worker at the same university. He gained his habilitation in 1955, and worked as a Dozent. In 1961, he went to the University of Göttingen, where he held the chair in Morphology and Systematic Zoology. He remained there until his retirement as an emeritus professor in 1992. Research Peter Ax worked primarily on the micro- and meiofauna of the interstitial environment in marine sediments, and on the systematics of flatworms. He described an array of hitherto unknown species from this environment, including Diplosoma micans, the first tunicate to be found in the interstitial habitat, in 1970. In 1956 he was the first to describe the Gnathostomulida, which was also found from this habitat. Through his works such as Das phylogenetische System (1984) and the three-volume Das System der Metazoa (1995-2001), he also became known as one of the important exponents of phylogenetic systematics in Germany. Memberships and awards Peter Ax was the founding editor of the journal Mikrofauna marina. He worked as a guest scientist at the Friday Harbor Laboratories of the University of Washington, at the marine biological stations in Arcachon, Banyuls-sur-Mer, and Naples, and at the Darwin Station on the Galapagos Islands. He was a member of the Akademie der Wissenschaften und der Literatur in Mainz, a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study, Berlin in 1986/87, and an honorary member of the Gesellschaft für Biologische Systematik.

They were similar to the previous batch of 1890, but differed in respect of the diameter of their coupled wheels, the length of their smokeboxes and their tractive effort. Manufacturer The second batch of Cape Government Railways (CGR) 5th Class Tenwheeler type tender locomotives was delivered from Dübs and Company in 1891. Of the thirty locomotives, four went to the Eastern System to work out of East London, numbered in the range from 55 to 58, nine went to the Midland System to work out of Port Elizabeth, numbered in the ranges from 136 to 138 and 309 to 314, and seventeen went to the Western System for service between Touws River and Beaufort West, numbered 117, 118 and in the range from 121 to 135. The order had originally been for 36 locomotives. In 1891, a complete design for a new 7th Class Mastodon type locomotive was prepared at the Salt River works in Cape Town. The last six locomotives of the order were cancelled and substituted with an order for six of these new 7th Class locomotives. Characteristics While the 1891 locomotive was identical to the batch of 1890 in most respects, it differed in three aspects. It had larger coupled wheels with a diameter, compared to the of the earlier locomotives. As a result of the larger coupled wheels, its tractive effort was reduced from at 75% boiler pressure. It had a longer smokebox. On the 1890 locomotive, the chimney was so close to the front of the smokebox that the headlight had to be mounted on a platform attached to the front of the smokebox, while on the 1891 locomotive there was sufficient space ahead of the chimney to mount the huge headlight on top of the smokebox. In the 1890s, some improvements to smokebox design took place. Extending the smokebox forward increased its volume. The increased amount of exhaust gases present in the smokebox had the effect of stabilising and improving the draught. The date of this improvement can be pinned to the introduction of this second batch of 5th Class locomotives with their lengthened smokeboxes. This had such a profound effect on the boiler’s steaming ability that virtually every serving locomotive on the CGR and Natal Government Railways (NGR) had their smokeboxes extended. Service Cape Government Railways The 5th Class was considered to be the first really efficient all-round locomotive in the Cape of Good Hope. It was used on all kinds of traffic, wherever the mainline had severe gradients and curves. At least one of the Western System’s locomotives, no. 134, was modified by the CGR by having the smokebox extended even further forward to almost flush with the buffer beam. The reason for this modification is not known, but it was possibly done to make room for a spark arrester, as was done with the 4th Class 4-6-0TT of 1880 on the Eastern system. Oranje-Vrijstaat Gouwerment-Spoorwegen In late 1896, ten of these locomotives, six from the Midland System and four from the Western System, were sold to the newly established Oranje-Vrijstaat Gouwerment-Spoorwegen (OVGS) of the Orange Free State. On the OVGS, they were designated 5th Class K and renumbered in the range from 49 to 58. New Cape Central Railway The New Cape Central Railway (NCCR) was a private railway company which, by 1894, operated a branchline from Worcester via Robertson and Roodewal to Swellendam. In 1897, the Midland System's engine no. 136 was sold to the NCCR, where it was renumbered to no. 8. Central South African Railways During the Second Boer War, control of all railways in the Orange Free State and Transvaal was taken over by the Imperial Military Railways. At the end of the war in 1902, the ten ex-OVGS locomotives came onto the roster of the Central South African Railways (CSAR), where they were renumbered in the ranges from 315 to 317 and 326 to 332. In 1904, the CSAR reboilered three of these locomotives, no. 327, 328 and 329, with larger boilers with Belpaire fireboxes which were equipped with Drummond tubes. This involved the installation of cross-water tubes into the firebox, as featured on the London and South Western Railway's and L11 Class, in an attempt to increase the heating surface area of the water, albeit at the cost of increased boiler complexity. Visible external evidence of the presence of Drummond tubes was the rectangular inspection covers which were attached to the sides of the firebox, just ahead of the cab. The larger boilers and Drummond tubes increased their heating surface by and, at a higher operating boiler pressure of , these three locomotives were able to easily haul the load of the next higher class. Since by then, however, these locomotives were being withdrawn from mainline traffic, no more such reboilerings were carried out. South African Railways When the Union of South Africa was established on 31 May 1910, the three Colonial government railways (CGR, NGR and Central South African Railways) were united under a single administration to control and administer the railways, ports and harbours of the Union. Although the South African Railways and Harbours came into existence in 1910, the actual classification and renumbering of all the rolling stock of the three constituent railways was only implemented with effect from 1 January 1912. By 1912, twenty-five of these locomotives survived, nineteen on the CGR and six, including the three which had been reboilered, on the CSAR. They were considered obsolete by the South African Railways (SAR), designated Class 05 and renumbered by having the numeral "0" prefixed to their existing numbers. During 1914, at the outbreak of the First World War, military planners followed the example set by the British invading forces during the Second Boer War and identified a requirement for armoured trains. For this purpose, five Class 05 locomotives were specially protected with armour plate and named Trafalgar, Scot, Erin, Karoo and Schrikmaker. The armour-plating was fitted by the workshops in Pretoria, Bloemfontein and Salt River. Their engine numbers are not known, nor whether they were from this Class or the Class 05 of 1890, or both. In spite of being considered obsolete, some of the Class 05 locomotives survived as shunting engines in SAR service for another four decades, with some even getting reboilered while in SAR service. One confirmed example is no. 0138, which was still equipped with boiler no. 4825 of 1922 when it was withdrawn from service in 1953. When they were eventually withdrawn from service in 1953, they were the last obsolete locomotives to be still in service. Works numbers By 1896, all the locomotives of the Eastern System and one of the Midland System had been renumbered. The works numbers, CGR System, original numbers, renumbering and distribution of the Cape 5th Class of 1891 are listed in the table.

Cameron Erving
Cameron Drew Erving (born August 23, 1992) is an American football offensive tackle for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL). He was selected in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns. He played college football at Florida State and has played in the NFL for the Browns, Kansas City Chiefs, Dallas Cowboys, and Carolina Panthers. Early years Erving attended Colquitt County High School, where he played as a defensive tackle. He had 98 tackles (48 solo) as a senior. College career Erving accepted a football scholarship from Florida State University. He played in three games as a defensive tackle as a true freshman in 2010. He recorded one tackle before a back injury caused him to have a medical redshirt. He was a backup defensive tackle and played in all 13 games as a redshirt freshman in 2011. He finished the season with 20 tackles and one sack. Erving was moved to offensive tackle as a sophomore in 2012. He started all 14 games at left tackle, protecting quarterback EJ Manuel's blind side. As a junior in 2013, Erving was a first-team All-ACC selection at left tackle, after protecting quarterback Jameis Winston's blind side, who became the youngest player ever to win the Heisman Trophy. He was also named a second-team All-American by the Associated Press. He began his senior season in 2014 as the starting left tackle, but was moved to center after Austin Barron suffered an arm injury in the fifth game against Wake Forest University. Erving made 42 consecutive starts on the offensive line during his college career. He is a member of the Florida State chapter of Phi Delta Theta fraternity. Professional career Cleveland Browns On April 30, 2015, Erving was selected with the 19th overall pick by the Cleveland Browns in the 2015 NFL draft. Erving signed a four-year contract worth roughly $10 million, with a signing bonus of about $5 million. As a rookie, he spent time at right guard and left tackle during training camp. He appeared in 16 games with 4 starts at left guard. In 2016, after longtime starting center Alex Mack left the Browns via free agency, the coaching staff switched Erving from guard to center as his replacement. He sat out three games after suffering a bruised lung in the second game against the Baltimore Ravens. He started 12 games at center, but struggled with his level of play and with his shotgun snaps. He was moved to the right tackle position for the season finale in place of Austin Pasztor, but suffered an MCL injury during the game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. In 2017, he was competing for the right tackle starting position with Shon Coleman. He struggled during training camp and also suffered a calf injury. Kansas City Chiefs On August 30, 2017, Erving was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs for a 2018 fifth-round pick (#159-Daurice Fountain). He played in 13 games, making four starts (three at right guard and one at left tackle). On May 2, 2018, the Chiefs declined the fifth-year option on Erving's contract. On September 4, 2018, Erving signed a two-year contract extension with the Chiefs. Although he was considered to be at risk of making the team, he earned the starting left guard position during training camp. He appeared in 14 games with 13 starts. In 2019, he started eight games at left tackle, while Eric Fisher recovered from a sports-hernia surgery. Erving won his first championship when the Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers 31-20 in Super Bowl LIV. The Chiefs declined the 2020 option on Erving's contract, making him a free agent. Dallas Cowboys On May 6, 2020, Erving signed a one-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys, to compete for the swing tackle position. He missed most of training camp with an undisclosed injury, returning to activity until August 27. Because of the season-ending hip injury to La'el Collins, he competed for the starting right tackle position, but was passed on the depth chart by rookie Terence Steele. In the season opener against the Los Angeles Rams, he sprained the medial collateral ligament in his left knee while blocking for a field goal attempt. On September 15, he was placed on injured reserve with a sprained knee. He was designated to return from injured reserve on October 7, and began practicing with the team again. He was activated on October 24. In the seventh game against the Washington Football Team, he was named the starter at left tackle, replacing Brandon Knight who had a knee injury. In the eleventh game against the Washington Football Team, he suffered a sprained right knee injury on the opening series and was replaced with Knight. On December 11, 2020, he was placed back on injured reserve, making him ineligible to return during the season. He appeared in 6 games with 5 starts at left tackle. Carolina Panthers On March 17, 2021, Erving signed a two-year contract with the Carolina Panthers. He was named the Panthers starting left tackle for 2021. He suffered a calf injury in Week 9 and was placed on injured reserve on November 8, 2021. He was activated on December 11. He started 9 games at left tackle. In 2022, he appeared in 11 games as a reserve player and the team's swing tackle, while mentoring rookie offensive tackle Ikem Ekwonu. On May 9, 2023. Erving re-signed with the Panthers on a one-year contract. On August 29, 2023, he was released for final roster cuts before the start of the 2023 season. New Orleans Saints On October 4, 2023, Erving was signed to the New Orleans Saints practice squad. He played his first game for the Saints against the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 19, 2023 as the starting RT.
