# Kvarkush

Kvarkush (Russian: Кваркуш) is a mountain range in North Ural, in Perm Krai, Russia. It is located in the basin of the Vishera River, between the Uls River and upstream of the Yayva River. Its highland swamps are the source of many rivers and streams. It stretches north–south for about 60 kilometres (37 mi) and is 12 to 15 kilometres (7 to 9 mi) wide.
The highest point is Mount Vogulsky Kamen at 1,066 metres (3,497 ft).

## Etymology

The name of the mountain range is derived from the Mansi word kvar-kush that literally means "naked (unforested) Ural". Perhaps, this name was given because there are no forests at elevations of more than 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) and the landscape consists of mountainous tundra and stone deposits. The name of Vogulsky Kamen derives from the name of the Mansi people, formerly called voguly by Russian people.

# Johnstone Castle

Johnstone Castle (Scots: Johnstoun Castle, Scottish Gaelic: Caisteal Baile Iain) is a structure and former mansion in the town of Johnstone in Renfrewshire, Scotland.
It belonged to the Houstons of Milliken, who acquired the estate of Easter Cochrane in 1773. The original structure was substantially enlarged in 1771 and 1812 by George Houston, who had the structure remodelled in a castellated style complete with a turret at the left hand of the front elevation, possibly by the architect James Gillespie Graham.
The most notable features were barrel vaulted rooms in the ground floor. Externally in addition to the battlemented decoration there was a rope-styled string course. Although the castle and policies were considered particularly picturesque, the continued growth of the town of Johnstone reduced its size and the estate had largely disappeared by the start of the 20th century. Much of the house was demolished in 1950, and most of the remainder of the grounds was purchased by the local authority for housing in 1956.
Today all that remains is the central square tower along with a crow-stepped bartizaned section of an older date. The tower lay in disrepair until being purchased in 2001, and is now a private residence. It is a protected category B listed building.

## Frédéric Chopin

Johnstone Castle's principal claim to fame is a visit by the Polish composer Chopin in 1848. He had been invited by Anne Houston, wife of the then-5th laird of Johnstone Ludovick (1780-1862), as part of his Scottish tour. Anne's sister Jane Wilhelmina Stirling was a student and long-time friend of the composer, and had arranged the tour. Chopin was initially charmed by the estate and grounds, describing his stay in a letter: "I am staying at Mrs Houston's house. The Castle is very handsome, opulent, one leads life on a grand scale." Unfortunately the weather deteriorated, and he wrote to his friend Wojciech Grzymała:
   The weather has changed, and it is dreadful outside. I am feeling sick and depressed, and everyone wears me down with their excessive attentions.
To compound his misery, he had a brush with a death more violent than a wasting. As the composer rode in a two-horse carriage, one of the animals reared and broke loose from the reins. Chopin was still inside when the carriage hit a tree and smashed into pieces. He managed to climb free of the wreckage.

The group was founded around the photographer Bizan Ueda, among photographers who bought their supplies from the Tampei Pharmacy (丹平薬局, Tanpei yakkyoku) in Shinsaibashi, Osaka. The founding members included Terushichi Hirai, Kōrō Honjō and Tōru Kōno; these were soon augmented by Kaneyoshi Tabuchi, Nakaji Yasui, and others.
The group's first exhibition was held in 1931 but it was the second exhibition, in 1932, that caused a stir, with avant-garde works. The club exhibited frequently; its first exhibition in Tokyo held in 1935.

# Pietro Negri

Pietro Negri (1628, Venice - 31 May 1679, Venice) was an Italian painter in the Baroque style who belonged to the so-called "tenebrosi" (dark or gloomy ones).

## Biography

He was likely born in Venice. Early sources assumed that he was the son of a sculptor named Domenico Negri, but his father's name is given as Lunardo in some documents and Francesco in others. His first art lessons came from Matteo Ponzone. Later, he worked with Francesco Ruschi. In his early days, much of his work is difficult to distinguish, stylistically, from Antonio Zanchi.
His first verified work is from 1658, when he signed an engraving on the frontispiece of Antioco by the poet, Nicolò Minato. The paintings attributed to him, prior to the 1660s, are all missing. A painting of Antonio e Cleopatra is dated from c.1664. In 1670, he produced the Albero serafico dei Ordini francescani (Seraphic Tree of the Franciscans), currently at the basilica of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari. One of his best known works is Nerone che esamina il corpo di Agrippina (Nero Examining the Corpse of Agrippina), in the collection of the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden.
He married Franceschina Maria Barbara, with whom he had two sons. She died shortly after giving birth to the second and he remarried in 1673, to Angela Caroli, the widow of a merchant.
In 1673, he created what many consider to be his masterpiece; a monumental "telero" (canvas applied directly to a wall) depicting Mark the Evangelist and Saint Rocco, who interceded with the Virgin Mary to end a plague in Venice, on the left wall of the staircase at the Scuola Grande di San Rocco, opposite a depiction of the plague of 1630, by Zanchi.
He also took the occasional student; notably the Late Baroque painter, Simone Brentana.
He died of what is believed to have been tuberculosis. He was interred, at his widow's expense, in the Church of Saint Augustine [it], which was demolished in 1873, after many years of serving as a mill.
# Oulu Bus Station

The Oulu Bus Station (Finnish: Oulun linja-autoasema) is a bus station in the city center of Oulu, Finland, located in the Vaara district near the Raksila district. From the bus station there is a pedestrian connection via the railway underpass tunnel to Oulu railway station and the station pier. There is no longer a ticket office and the Matkahuolto service in the station building, but there is still a café in the building.
The bus station was originally built in Torinranta on the site of the current Autoranta parking area in 1937. The Oulu City Council decided to build a new station as early as 1963, but the new existing bus station was only opened in November 1983. Today, the bus station has received a lot of criticism for its old and dilapidated due to its condition, which is no longer subject to renovation.
Next to the bus station building is Martti Aiha's sculpture Futura – Tuntematon.

# Volkovija, Brvenica

Volkovija (Macedonian: Волковија) is a mountain village in the Republic of North Macedonia, part of the Municipality of Brvenica.

## Population

Volkovija is a relatively small village holding a population of 270 people. The ethnic composition of the village is Macedonian. The village has small primary school “Goce Delcev” which accepts students aged 6–10. The students aged 10–14 continue with the school programs in the neighboring village Stence.
In statistics gathered by Vasil Kanchov in 1900, the village of Volkovija was inhabited by 640 Orthodox Bulgarians.

## Origins and etymology

The village as such is mentioned for the first time in written text in 1348 (14th century). There are number of interpretations about the origins of the name “Volkovija”. In Macedonian it comes from the word “volk” (wolf) which suggests that in the past the place where today Volkovija is was empty wilderness with many wolves. This however is contested by authors like Viktor Rafajlovski who argues that such a view is illogical mainly because in the past the village area was a home to highly important monastery.

# Nauryzbai Batyr

Nasrullah Nauryzbai Kutpanbetuly Bahadur (Kazakh: Насрұллаh Наурызбай Құтпанбетұлы Баһадүр, نصرالله نوروزباي قطبانبتولي بهادور, romanized: Nasrūllah Nauryzbai Qūtpanbetūly Bahadür), also known as Nauryzbai Bahadur or Nauryzbai Batyr (1706-1781) was a Kazakh war hero known for fighting against the Dzungars in the Dzhungar-Kazakh wars. Nauryzbai was one of three standard-bearers of Abu'l-Mansur Khan, the Kazakh ruler and commander-in-chief.

## Biography

Nasrullah Bahadur was born in the Jalpaktas-Seriktas district of modern-day Almaty, Kazakhstan in 1706. His exact birth date is unclear, but it was likely around the Kazakh holiday of Nowruz (approx. mid-March), thus earning him the middle name Nauryzbai. Nasrullah claimed partial Timurid descent on his mother's side and descent from the Golden Horde ruler Mubarak Khwaja on his father's side.
Nasrullah grew up training in combat with the sons of Kazakh mırzas and khans. In his youth, he developed a close friendship with a prince named Zairullah (later Nur Ali Khan), the son and successor of Abu'l-Khair Muhammed Khan. This friendship would prove to be long-lasting and relatively influential in Kazakh history, as Nur Ali and Nasrullah together led the Kazakh army in an uprising against the encroaching Russian settlers in the mid-1750s.
Kazakh ruler Abu'l-Khair Muhammed Khan died in 1748, allowing Nur Ali Khan to succeed him. Towards the end of Abu'l-Khair's rule, Nasrullah was promoted to commander of the Muslim Kazakh ghazis. He also earned the title Bahadur (braveheart) due to his combatting prowess and rise in the military ranks. In 1752, he began leading Nur Ali's army in an uprising against the Russian Empire. While the uprising was unsuccessful, Nasrullah and Nur Ali survived and went on to lead the Kazakhs for approximately thirty more years.
Following the failed rebellion against Russian settlers, Nasrullah Bahadur spent the rest of his life aiding Kazakh ruler Abu'l-Mansur Khan as a commander in the Kazakh-Dzungar Wars and in battles against the expanding Qing Chinese. After displaying abundant bravery in battle, Abu'l-Mansur made Nasrullah one of the three standard-bearers in the Kazakh army. Nasrullah died in battle against Chinese troops in 1781. His son, Aziz id-Din Bahadur, went on to help Kazakh co-rulers Ğubaidullah Khan, Sher Ghazi Khan, and Kenesary Khan in one last unsuccessful rebellion against the Russians.
