# Dolgorukov House in Kolpachniy Lane

The Dolgorukov House in Kolpachniy Lane (Russian: Дом Долгоруковых в Колпачном переулке) is a mansion in the center of Moscow (Kolpachny Lane, Building 6, Building 2). Built in 1764 in the Baroque style on the basis of the chambers of the XVII century. It has the status of an object of cultural heritage of federal significance.

## History

The western part of the house includes chambers of the 17th century. Their façade is oriented to the west and went out onto a lane that has not survived to this day. The chambers of the 17th century are built on a white-stone basement of the 16th century, which has survived to our time. The entrance to this sublet is oriented to the south, where the royal Starosadsky Palace used to be. According to the assumption of R. E. Rakhmatullin, the 16th-century basement could be part of the Lithuanian embassy court in 1560.
At the beginning of the 18th century, the owners of the chambers were Khitrovo, and then Buturlin. From 1738, the chambers belonged to Prince Konstantin Stepanovich Kantakuzen. Around the 1730s-1740s the chambers were reconstructed, having received a decor in the Annensk style. In 1744, Kantakuzen was purchased by Prince Alexander Alekseevich Dolgorukov. Later, Dolgorukov acquired two adjacent sites, and then began restructuring the chambers with a significant increase in their volume. The author of the project of reorganization is the architect Vasily Yakovlevich Yakovlev, as evidenced by the surviving drawings. The restructuring of the Chambers ended in 1764. Now the main facade was oriented towards the Church of the Assumption on Pokrovka, towards which there was a grand entrance driveway. Along Pokrovka there was also a parade fence with lions holding chains in their mouths.
After perestroika, a coach carriage was made in the center of the mansion, separating the old part of the building from the new one. Guests could enter the building on carriages, and from the middle of the passage the side staircases led to the grand entrance hall with columns and sculptures.
The mansion was not damaged during the fire of 1812, and Napoleon placed in it the central office of the French police. In September 1812, a trial took place over the Russian arsonists in Moscow.
In the early 1930s a multi-storey residential building was built nearby, because of the angle of the oldest part of the mansion was dismantled. In 1997, the restoration of Dolgorukov's house was carried out, however, the elevator shaft of the residential building did not allow to completely restore the corner of the mansion. Restorers have restored the former main façade of the 17th century chambers, highlighting it in white. On the southern facade a pale yellow color shows the restructuring of 1730s and 1740s.

# Edward Walford

Edward Walford (1823–1897) was an English magazine editor and a compiler of educational, biographical, genealogical and touristic works, perhaps best known for the final four volumes of Old and New London (Cassell, London, 1878).

## Life

Walford, second son of William Walford of Hatfield Peverel, Essex, matriculated at the University of Oxford on 28 November 1840, aged 17. He was a scholar at Balliol College, Oxford 1841–1847 (B.A. 1845, M.A. 1847), and an ordained clergyman of the Church of England (deacon 1846, priest 1847). He was awarded the Chancellor's Prize for Latin verse in 1843, and the Denyer Theological Prize in 1848 and 1849.
After leaving the university, he was employed as an assistant master of Tonbridge School, but in 1853 converted to Catholicism, and began to earn his living from writing and editorial work. He returned to the Church of England in 1860, but again became a Catholic in 1871.
He died at Ventnor on 20 November 1897, after some years of illness.

## Works

In 1855, Walford published an abridged work containing Sozomen's and Philostorgius' Ecclesiastical History, which he translated into English. His genealogical compilations include Walford's County Families (begun 1860) and the Windsor Peerage (1890). He also contributed articles to the Dictionary of National Biography.
Walford was assistant editor of the magazine Once a Week from 1959 until 1865, when he succeeded Samuel Lucas as editor. In 1862, he took over the existing biographical compendium of eminent living persons, Men of the Time, and retitled it Men and Women of the Time. His work on this compendium led to correspondence with many prominent individuals, including Charles Darwin and Wilkie Collins.
He edited The Gentleman's Magazine from 1866 to 1868, and The Antiquary from 1879 to 1880. Soon after The Antiquary began publication he had a well-publicised falling-out with the publisher, Elliot Stock, and in 1882 launched the rival Antiquarian Magazine and Bibliographer (renamed Walford's Antiquarian Magazine and Bibliographical Review 1885). This journal ceased publication in 1886.
# William Augustine Duncan

William Augustine Duncan CMG (12 March 1811 – 1885) was a Scottish journalist, and colonial official.

## Life

He was a native of Aberdeenshire, was born on 12 March 1811 at Bluefield, Towie, and educated for the Scottish national church. He subsequently embraced Catholicism, was accepted as a student at the Scots Benedictine College, Ratisbon, and afterwards at the new college at Blairs, Kincardineshire, but having offended the authorities there by too outspoken criticism on a sermon, he gave up all thoughts of entering the priesthood.
He started publishing and bookselling business in Aberdeen, after five years he was poorer than when he began. He then resorted to teaching and to writing for the press, and was an earnest advocate of the Reform Bill of 1832 and of Lord Stanley's Irish education scheme.
In July 1838, Duncan went out to New South Wales, becoming a publisher in Sydney. The following year, he was appointed editor of a newly established Roman Catholic journal, the Australasian Chronicle and used the journal to comment on many matters of controversy. On relinquishing this post in 1843, he issued a paper of his own, Duncan's Weekly Register of Politics, Facts, and General Literature.
In 1846, he was appointed by Sir George Gipps sub-collector of customs at Moreton Bay, and soon after settling at Brisbane he was placed on the commission of the peace, made water police magistrate, guardian of minors, and local immigration commissioner. He was the first president of the Brisbane School of Arts.
In January 1859, he succeeded Colonel Gibbes as collector of customs for New South Wales, which appointment he held until 1881. On his return to Sydney, after thirteen years' absence, he declined the chairmanship of the National Board of Education; but afterwards accepted an ordinary seat at the board, of which he remained a prominent member until its dissolution. Duncan was afterwards on the council of education, and was also chairman of the free public library.
He built up a private library of 3,200 books. They were on a wide range of subjects and reflected his broad interests.
For his services to the colony he was awarded the distinction of C.M.G. in the 1881 Birthday Honours, together with a pension from the colonial government. He died in 1885.

## Works

Duncan, whose acquaintance with modern languages was unusually extensive, translated from the Spanish of Pedro Fernandes de Queiros an Account of a Memorial presented to his Majesty Philip III., king of Spain, concerning the Population and Discovery of the Fourth Part of the World, Australia the unknown, its great Riches and Fertility, printed anno 1610, Spanish and English, octavo, Sydney, 1874, to which he appended an introductory notice. He was the author of A Plea for the New South Wales Constitution, octavo, Sydney, 1856, of pamphlets on education, and an unpublished history of the colony until the government of Sir George Gipps.

## Life

He was born at Houstoun House, Linlithgowshire, the third son of Major Norman Shairp of Houstoun, and was educated at Edinburgh Academy and the University of Glasgow.
Shairp gained a Snell exhibition to Balliol College, Oxford in 1840. In 1842 he won the Newdigate prize for a poem on Charles XII of Sweden, and took his degree in 1844. During these years the "Oxford Movement" was at its height. Shairp was stirred by John Henry Newman's sermons, and admired the poetry of John Keble, on whose character and work he wrote an essay; but he remained faithful to his Presbyterian upbringing. After leaving Oxford he took a mastership at Rugby School under Archibald Campbell Tait.
In 1857 Shairp became assistant to the professor of humanity in the University of St Andrews, and in 1861 he was appointed to that chair. In 1868 he was presented to the principalship of the United College, St Andrews, and lectured from time to time on literary and ethical subjects. In 1877 he was elected Professor of Poetry at Oxford in succession to Francis Hastings Doyle. He was re-elected to the chair of poetry in 1882, and discharged his duties there and at St Andrews until the end of 1884. He was a friend and correspondent of the Scottish poet and composer, Mary Maxwell Campbell, who lived at St Andrews.
Shairp died at Ormsary, Argyllshire.

## Works

# Canal Gov

Canal Gov is a government-owned television channel in Brazil. Owned by the Secretariat of Social Communications and operated by Empresa Brasil de Comunicação (EBC), it broadcasts news and public affairs programmes, including coverage of governmental events.

## History

The channel first launched on 16 June 1997 as TV Nacional do Brasil (TV NBR or NBR), during the government of President Fernando Henrique Cardoso,. Despite being educational, the station broadcast live all acts, ceremonies and inaugurations of FHC and gained several affiliates, generating controversy for unlawful use of mass media for election campaign, which occurred in the same year.
On 9 April 2019, amid changes to the EBC under Jair Bolsonaro's government, NBR TV was merged into TV Brasil and replaced by TV Brasil 2, while TV Brasil increasingly carried coverage of activity such as media appearances by Bolsonaro, and news programming following the party line rather than acting as a public service broadcaster.
After the election of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to a second presidency in 2022, the incoming Secretary of Social Communication Paulo Pimenta stated in December 2022 that there were plans to return TV Brasil to a public service format, and for government-related programmes to be split back out into a second broadcaster. Around the same time, live coverage of governmental business (which dominated TV Brasil programming during Bolsonaro's presidency) was moved to TV Brasil 2. On 24 July 2023, TV Brasil 2 was rebranded as Canal Gov.

# Mikhail Ivasik

Mikhail Adamovich Ivasik (Russian: Михаил Адамович Ивасик; 1 May 1917 — 18 August 1944) was a Soviet sniper in World War II who personally killed over 300 Nazis. He was posthumously awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union for his feats.

## Early life

He was born on 1 May 1917 to a Russian peasant family in Petrushi village. After graduating from seventh grade he worked as a store manager in the city of Ussuriysk. He joined the Red Army in 1936 and served in the Red Banner Amur Flotilla, taking part in the battles against Imperial Japan at lake Khasan.

## World War II

He began fighting on the Eastern Front of World War II in December 1941, originally fighting in the 713th Rifle Regiment. He helped develop the sniper movement on the Northwestern Front. By September 1942 he had killed 73 Nazis, including six Nazi snipers, for which he received his first award, the Medal "For Courage". He later graduated from courses for junior lieutenants in 1943, and became commander of a rifle company in the 380th Rifle Regiment. By late April 1943, he had personally killed 229 Nazi soldiers and officers, and by late July 1943 his tally reached 241 Nazis killed.
In November, his unit was deployed to the village of Velikiye Luki, where he fought in offensive and defensive battles, repelling against enemy counterattacks. During one battle, his company killed an estimated 50 Nazis and took an additional ten as prisoner. During a battle in January 1944 he attacked an enemy trench and took over a strategic height, and continued fighting in the battle after being wounded, and by that time he killed 284 Nazis. Later that year he especially distinguished himself in the Madona offensive operation in Latvia, leading his battalion in swamps behind enemy lines to attack retreating Nazi troops. He and his unit went on to seize control of important highway junctions and crossed a key river under intense enemy fire.
During the course of the war he was wounded four times. By the time he was killed in action on 18 August 1944 during a battle in Nazi-occupied Latvia, he had killed at least 320 Nazi soldiers and officers.

# Obama On My Mind

Obama on my Mind is a musical play about the 2008 presidential campaign of Barack Obama by British crime writer and film producer Teddy Hayes.
The play, a musical comedy, is a campaign story set the week after the 2008 Republican National Convention.
Reviews were strongly negative. Lyn Gardner, a British reviewer wrote a critical review in The Guardian after having seen the show at the Hen and Chickens Theatre where the musical made its debut to mostly sold-out crowds, describing the musical as "opportunistic", and as a "bizarrely unfocused text - an apparently unedited stream of consciousness".
However one year later the play was taken to Seattle Washington and staged at the Langston Hughes Theater where it was positively reviewed, championed and supported by African American audiences as a piece of entertainment that reflected both the humour as well as all of the events surrounding the jaw dropping surprise of an African American being elected as US president. The Broadway World described the play as a "politically inspired comedic romp featuring a motley crew of loyal, obsessive and downright peculiar personalities, striving to get their candidate into the White House."
# Weighted catenary

A weighted catenary (also flattened catenary, was defined by William Rankine as transformed catenary and thus sometimes called Rankine curve) is a catenary curve, but of a special form: if a catenary is the curve formed by a chain under its own weight, a weighted catenary is the curve formed if the chain's weight is not consistent along its length. Formally, a "regular" catenary has the equation
    $y=a\,\cosh \left({\frac {x}{a}}\right)={\frac {a\left(e^{\frac {x}{a}}+e^{-{\frac {x}{a}}}\right)}{2}}$
for a given value of a. A weighted catenary has the equation
    $y=b\,\cosh \left({\frac {x}{a}}\right)={\frac {b\left(e^{\frac {x}{a}}+e^{-{\frac {x}{a}}}\right)}{2}}$
and now two constants enter: a and b.

## Significance

A catenary arch has a uniform thickness. However, if
* the arch is not of uniform thickness,
* the arch supports more than its own weight,
* or if gravity varies,
it becomes more complex. A weighted catenary is needed.
The aspect ratio of a weighted catenary (or other curve) describes a rectangular frame containing the selected fragment of the curve theoretically continuing to the infinity.

## Examples

The Gateway Arch in the American city of St. Louis (Missouri) is the most famous example of a weighted catenary.
Simple suspension bridges use weighted catenaries.
