# Walerian Krasiński

Count Walerian Skorobohaty Krasiński or Valerian Krasinski (1795 – 22 December 1855) was a Polish Calvinist historian and jurnalist born in Republic of Belarus.
Krasinski was a Polish aristocrat in exile after the November Uprising 1830, during the Austrian, German and Russian partition of Poland. In 1844, he was proposed for a chair in Slavonic Studies at Oxford University. In 1848, he presented appeals to the Habsburg government. In Russia and Europe, or, The probable consequences of the present war he wrote on the Crimean War.
Krasinski's Historical sketch of the rise, progress, and decline of the Reformation in Poland (1838) still one of main texts on the subject available in English, was written in English. One of Krasinski's main sources is Slavonia reformata (1679) by Andreas Vengerscius.
He died in Edinburgh and is buried in the Warriston Cemetery close to another Polish exile, the violinist and composer Feliks Janiewicz, one of the co-organisers of the first Edinburgh Festival. The grave is marked by a tall grey granite obelisk. It lies in the overgrown area (2014) to the south-west, around 50m east of the more accessible monument to Horatio McCulloch.

# Terrewode Women's Community Hospital

Terrewode Women's Community Hospital, is a community hospital, under construction in Uganda, that specializes in the prevention, treatment, surgical correction and rehabilitation of obstetric fistula and its complications.

## Location

The hospital is located in Awasi Village, Arapai sub-county, in Soroti District, in the Eastern Region of Uganda, approximately 7.5 kilometres (5 mi), by road, northwest of the town of Soroti, the nearest large town. This is approximately 300 kilometres (186 mi), by road, northeast of Kampala, the national capital and largest city of Uganda.

## Overview

In Uganda, obstetric fistula is a major public health problem with over 140,000 women living with fistula. At least 1,900 new cases of fistula are registered in the country, every year.
The hospital sits on a 6 acres (24,000 m$^2$) piece of land, purchased with money from the Uganda Fistula Fund. The objective of the hospital is to provide health services for obstetric fistula and other child birth-related injuries. It is modeled after the Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital, founded by Australian Obstetrician and Gynecologist, Catherine Hamlin.
Terrewode, the Soroti-based non-profit, has been active against obstetric fistula in the Teso sub-region since 2002. More than 4,000 women have been supported by Terrewode in collaboration with the Uganda Ministry of Health, United Nations Population Fund, Amref Health Africa and Gender Health.

## Construction

The first phase of construction is budgeted to cost US$1.6 million (approx. USh5.8 billion), and expected to last eight months. The International Fistula Alliance is funding this phase. Gabikan Engineering Limited Construction Company was selected as the contractor for phase 1, consisting of the main hospital block. The second phase, consisting the out-patient clinic, maternity department and staff quarters, will follow after the first, allowing the hospital to provide obstetric services.

## Fundraising

In September 2017, the Speaker of the Uganda's parliament, received US$1 million from Ugandan diasporians, donated towards the construction of this hospital.

# War Manpower Commission

The War Manpower Commission was a World War II agency of the United States Government charged with planning to balance the labor needs of agriculture, industry and the armed forces.

## History

The Commission was created by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in Executive Order 9139 of April 18, 1942. Its chairman was Paul V. McNutt, head of the Federal Security Agency. In this Executive Order, the War Manpower Commission was headed by the Federal Security Administrator as Chairman, and consisted of representatives from the Department of War, the Department of the Navy, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Labor, the War Production Board, the Labor Production Division of the War Production Board, the Selective Service System, and the United States Civil Service Commission to ensure effective mobilization of manpower in the post-war era.
Executive Order 9279, dated December 5, 1942, transferred the Selective Service System to the War Manpower Commission. However, a year later it was made a separate agency directly responsible to the President.
McNutt appointed all men to his labor advisory committee, despite the pleas of Women's Bureau director, Mary Anderson, to have women represented. Instead, he created a Women's Advisory Committee appointing thirteen prominent women professionals, business executives, journalists, educators and organizational presidents. However, he did not provide a budget and its members were not paid.

# LWRC International

LWRC International, LLC, formerly known as Land Warfare Resources Corporation, is a CAGE defense contractor and firearms manufacturer. Founded in 1999, it is headquartered in Cambridge, Maryland.

## History

The company began in 1999, and was originally located in northern Virginia. The company was focused on R&D. In 2006, the company purchased Grenadier Precision Limited.
In 2006, retired U.S. Army veteran Pat Bryan, along with a management team, purchased the company and began to manufacture firearms. The company focused on producing a proprietary short-stroke gas piston system on the M4 platform.
In 2008, Richard Bernstein and a group of investors purchased LWRC International. Bernstein was president and CEO after the purchase. The company has been focused on improving upon the direct impingement M4 carbine assault rifle. They provide weapons to The Pentagon, the Jordanian Armed Forces, and Georgia SWAT. Darren Mellors and Jesse Gomez, employees of the previous LWRC and Grenadier, were tasked with marketing and development. The former LWRC CEO Pat Bryan was retained to focus on international marketing.
The company produces several M6 series weapons based on the M4 carbine, which use a proprietary short-stroke self-regulating gas piston system and bolt carrier design. This system prevents trapped gases from contacting the bolt carrier or receiver of the weapon, which reduces the heating and carbon fouling of the internals, simplifies field maintenance, and improves reliability.
Three segments of the Discovery Channel show Future Weapons were filmed featuring LWRC's weapons. Weapons featured were the M6A2, M6A4, and the Sniper/Assaulter Battle Rifle (LWRC SABR).

# SS Stanwood

SS Stanwood was a British collier that was sunk off Falmouth in December 1939 after her cargo of coal caught fire.

## Ship history

The ship was built in 1915 by the Reiherstieg Schiffswerfte & Maschinenfabrik shipyard in Hamburg, Germany, as the Itajahy on behalf of the Hamburg-Sudamerikanische Dampfschiffahrts-Gesellschaft ("Hamburg-South America Line"), but was requisitioned by the German Navy. In 1919 she was handed over to the UK as war reparations. She was owned by Elder Dempster & Company until 1921, when she was sold to R.P. Houston & Company, and renamed Hesione. In 1937 she was sold to the Stanhope Steamship Company and renamed Stanwood.
On 10 December 1939 the Stanwood's cargo of coal caught fire. The ship was scuttled in 12 m (39 ft) of water in Carrick Roads in order to extinguish the fire, with intention of then raising her. Unfortunately she slipped into deeper waters, and the crew abandoned her with the loss of one man. Attempts to refloat her were unsuccessful although her cargo was recovered. Deemed a hazard to shipping the wreck was later broken up with explosives.
The wreck remains popular with divers, though permission must first be obtained from the harbour master.
