# Marcinelle

Marcinelle (French pronunciation:; Walloon: Mårcinele) is a town of Wallonia and a district of the municipality of Charleroi, located in the province of Hainaut, Belgium.
Until 1977, it was a municipality of its own.
The town of Marcinelle is renowned as the home of comics publisher Dupuis and as the birthplace of the celebrated Marcinelle school of Franco-Belgian comics. Many notable creators in the genre have been based in Marcinelle, lending to its reputation as a hub of comic artists. Marcinelle is also the place where serial killer Marc Dutroux lived, before his arrest.

## History
### Mining accident of Marcinelle

On the morning of August 8, 1956, a fire in the mines of Marcinelle resulted in 262 casualties. At the time of the incident, 274 people were working in the colliery Bois du Cazier, also known as Puits Saint-Charles. A mining wagon incorrectly positioned in the elevator cage struck an oil pipe and electrical cables when the elevator started moving. This caused a fire, which trapped the miners working in the galleries below. Of the 274 people working on that morning, only twelve survived. Most of the victims were immigrants. Among the victims, there were 136 Italians, 95 Belgians, eight Poles, six Greeks, five Germans, five Frenchmen, three Hungarians, one Englishman, one Dutchman, one Russian and one Ukrainian.
Rescue operations continued until August 23 when the final verdict came from the mouth of a rescuer: "Tutti cadaveri!" (All corpses). The incident prompted Italy to demand better working conditions for the Italian guest workers in Belgium. Belgium, however, decided to recruit foreign workers from other countries more actively.
In the resulting prosecution, the trial court acquitted all of the accused on October 1, 1959. An appeal was lodged, and on January 30, 1961, the court gave the mine manager a six-month suspended jail sentence and a 2,000 Belgian franc fine (equivalent to €300 in 2006 after adjusting for inflation) and acquitted the other defendants.
The catastrophe had left such a legacy behind that it was selected as the main motif for a 2006 commemorative coin: the ten-Euro 50th anniversary of the catastrophe "Bois du Cazier" at Marcinelle coin. The obverse shows a portrait of a miner, with the mine "Bois du Cazier" in the background.
On September 19, 1981 a souvenir sheet was issued commemorating the 25th anniversary of the disaster, showing a scene of the disaster and a stamp of the Pieta, by Ben Genaux.

# Deputy chief of mission

A deputy chief of mission (DCM, in Europe the term deputy head of mission – DHoM or DHM is used instead) is the number-two diplomat assigned to an embassy or other diplomatic mission. The deputy chief of mission is usually considered the second-in-command to the head of mission (usually an ambassador). DCMs serve as chargé d'affaires (that is, as acting chief of mission) when the titular head of mission is outside the host country or when the post is vacant.
A DCM typically serves as a key advisor to the chiefs of mission as well as a chief of staff, and is responsible for the day-to-day management of the post. A DCM oversees the heads of sections (political, economic, public affairs, management, consular) at the embassy. They may also serve as de facto ombudsmen, responding to employee concerns and quality of life issues. Most career ambassadors have served as a DCM prior to their first assignment as chief of mission.

# Bolechovice Castle

Bolechovice Castle (Czech: Bolechovický zámek) is a castle in the Czech Republic, considered a representative example of a rococo Central Bohemian estate set on a medieval foundation.
The castle is set in the middle of a former farmstead. A two-story rococo building, the front wing has a central pediment and the buttresses to the main facade. Above the entrance portal is a cartouche with the coat of arms of Thomas Popovsky Šarfenbach. A rear residential wing was added, probably in the 19th century.

## History

The first mention of the Bolechovice chateau is with the passing of the Marquis of Bolechovice in 1381, followed by Vykéř of Bolechovice, 1423 and Henry of Bolechovice in 1448 and 1450 (as an ally of the Poděbrady family).
Early in the 16th century, the castle belonged Jan Žehart of Nasevrk, who sold it in 1539 to Jan Snětsky of Snět. The Snět lordship sold to Bedřichovský of Lomna, and a member of the family Anna Kateřina Měděncová of Vesce in 1622 sold off to Zdenek Lvov Libštejnské of Kolovratt; in 1704 Tomáš Popovský of Šafenbach. The structure was built as a humble abode, not originally as a chateau, but in 1775 it was built as such by Jan Karvínsky of Karvína on the location of the earlier fortification. Owners changed frequently from that time until 1882 when brewer Emanuel Kallberg purchased it and it was passed on to his descendants.

## Recent history

There is currently no available documentation as to the estate's provenance during the second world war, or after, when according to the so-called Beneš decrees, property of Nazi sympathizers was confiscated. Similarly, there is no documentation of how the estate was managed under the Czechoslovak Communist regime, when similar properties were confiscated by the government.
The Bolechovice castle was occupied up to and after the Velvet Revolution by the family of the painter Jan Souček, and is currently registered to his wife Emilie Součková along with Milan Kalina, managing editor of Prague's Jewish community journal, Obecní noviny and Bejt Simcha's magazine, Maskilu. Burdened with debt, the castle has recently been seized by its creditors, pending property auction. In recent cultural history, Bolechovice Castle has been host to a variety of cultural events.

# Mil Mi-36

The Mil Mi-36 was a Soviet light multipurpose helicopter first projected in the early 1980s. Its projected roles were to assist in fire support and communications, cargo transportation, SAR and medevac, and aerial surveillance. It was also planned to use twin TV-O-100 turboshaft engines, a two-bladed main rotor and a four-bladed tail rotor.

## Design and development

At the start of the 1980s the development of the TV-O-100 turbine gave Soviet designers their first lightweight powerplant which was suitable for smaller high-performance helicopters. This allowed the development of a new class of lightweight combat helicopters to augment the larger and more powerful transport, assault and anti-tank platforms.
Roles envisaged for such a helicopter included attack, close-range infantry support, troop transport with four soldiers, medivac with four stretchers, SAR/CSAR, liaison, light cargo, reconnaissance, artillery fire correction, as well as the potential capacity to eventually act as a scout, spotter, and provide target identification/approval for new dedicated attack helicopters (the projected Mil Mi-28 and Kamov Ka-50). Specifications also included day, night and all-weather capabilities.
Experience with the Mil Mi-24 in Afghanistan showed the vulnerability of helicopters to ambushes from infantry, RPG and MANPAD fire, as well as the need to counter this threat through vigilance and by immediately returning suppressive fire (even if the attack came from behind). As a result, the new scout helicopter would have been designed from the start to have a 360 degree retaliatory capability in the form of two gun turrets. These were to be of 7.62 mm calibre and it is likely that the gun used would have been the new GShG-7.62 machine gun which had been developed primarily as a defensive gun for helicopters (mounted as part of the organic armament of the Kamov Ka-29TB assault transport).
In addition, stub wings could be attached, giving the capability to carry bombs, gunpods, rockets and up to eight anti-tank missiles (this would have likely been 9K114 Shturm missiles in either the new four round launcher being developed for the Mil Mi-8 or possibly on special stub wings each with a pair of twin launchers).
A civil version was also planned which would have carried ten people or one ton of cargo and had secondary patrol and rescue capabilities.
The original specification called for a 2500 kg takeoff weight, but attempts to meet the required mixture of weapons, transport and survivability meant that the weight quickly climbed to 3400 kg. Meanwhile, Kamov had designed a more specialised platform in the 2200 kg range in the form of the Kamov V-60 which was favoured but not produced either. Much of the design philosophy was retained and subsequently grew into the Mil Mi-40 which was proposed within a year of work ceasing on the Mi-36.

# Billie Waters

Phyllis Mary Waters (6 April 1896 – 1979), known as Billie Waters was a British artist.

## Biography

Waters was born in Richmond, Surrey and studied art at the Heatherley School of Fine Art and then at the Grosvenor School of Modern Art. From 1926 to 1931 she lived in Newlyn, Cornwall and studied with the artists Ernest Procter and Harold Harvey at their art school for some time. For a period Waters worked as an apprentice to Proctor and learnt several techniques from him.
Waters first exhibited at the Royal Academy in London in 1928 and showed there annually throughout her working life. She also exhibited with the New English Art Club, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Society of Women Artists. Waters was an elected member of the National Society of Painters, Sculptors and Gravers. In 1933, she had her first solo exhibition at the Leicester Galleries in London.

Waters lived in London but continued to visit Cornwall on a regular basis and eventually moved to Lelant in the county. Waters was a frequent visitor to both France and Italy and became interested in fresco techniques early in her artistic career. She developed a distinct style of working in oils which created the appearance of tempera works. Meeting Ben Nicholson in Cornwall led Waters to experiment with abstraction, but the majority of her works are realistic and representational.

# Ken Nolan

Ken Nolan (/ˈnoʊlən/) is an American screenwriter and novelist best known for adapting the 2001 biographical war film Black Hawk Down from the non-fiction book of the same name.

## Life and career

Nolan was born in Detroit and raised in Buffalo, New York and Portland, Oregon. He applied twice to the UCLA Film School but was turned down both times. He ultimately attended the University of Oregon, earning an English degree. He moved to Los Angeles, California in the early 1990s to pursue a career as a screenwriter, working at Richard Dreyfuss' company using The Screenwriter's Workbook by Syd Field as a guide. He wrote several screenplays before breaking through in 1994, writing a series of spec scripts for Warner Bros. and Universal Pictures.
His first produced screenplay was an adaptation of Mark Bowden's 1999 non-fiction book Black Hawk Down, which was ultimately made into an Academy Award-winning film of the same name by Ridley Scott. He initially wrote a 60-page treatment and writing a total of eight drafts before Scott was attached to the project by producer Jerry Bruckheimer. Nolan was one of several writers (including Steven Zaillian, Stephen Gaghan, Eric Roth) who contributed to the final shooting script, though he was the only one to receive on-screen credit.
Nolan's next major project was the TNT miniseries The Company, for which he received a Writers Guild of America Award for Television: Long Form – Adapted. In early 2015, he published his first novel, The Spawn.
He replaced Ehren Kruger as the writer of the Transformers film series, penning the latest entry Transformers: The Last Knight and the as-yet untitled spin-off film. Nolan wrote Only the Brave, a 2017 drama film which, like Black Hawk Down, is a work of historical fiction based on true events.
