# Vesna (mythology)

Vesna (Cyrillic: Весна) was a mythological female character associated with youth and springtime in later Slavic mythology, particularly in the South Slavs. Along with her male companion Vesnik, she was associated with rituals conducted in rural areas during springtime.

## In mythology

According to Slovene mythology, beautiful women called "vesnas" lived in palaces atop mountains where they discussed the fate of crops and of human inhabitants. A magical circle around their palaces kept them from leaving the mountain top except during February, when they would travel in wooden carts down to the valley below. Only certain people were capable of hearing them singing. People who snuck up to their mountain palaces might learn their fates, but risked an unpleasant end if they were caught by the vesnas.
It has been suggested that Vesna was originally a goddess representing the earth during the spring, making her an alternate form of Mokosh.
The character was documented in Croatia, Serbia, North Macedonia and Slovenia.
According to English author G. F. Abbott, Russian peasants from the 19th century celebrated the return of spring on March 1 by going out to the fields, carrying a clay figure of a lark on a pivot which had been decorated with flowers and singing songs about springtime ("the vernal season"), or vesna, a word for 'spring' inherited in Russian, Polish, Ukrainian, and Belarusian from Proto-Slavic *vesna.

## Legacy

Today it is the poetic word for 'spring' in Slovene (where February is occasionally known as vesnar), Croatian, Czech and Slovak. In Serbo-Croatian variants, the word v(j)esnik (ultimately derived from Proto-Slavic *věstь, "message") is used to denote someone or something that heralds an upcoming event, commonly used in the collocation v(j)esnici proljeća ("heralds of spring") denoting early-blooming flowers such as snowdrops, crocuses and primulas.
The term is also used in the feminine name Vesna.

## In popular culture

* The story of Vesna and the Sun Prince gave inspiration to the 1983 Czechoslovak short film A Ballad About Green Wood, directed by Jiří Barta.
* Vesna was featured on a Slovenian postage stamp that was sold in 80.000 units between 2005 and 2006.
# Polymele (daughter of Aeolus)

In Greek mythology, Polymele (Ancient Greek: Πολυμήλη, romanized: Polumḗlē), also called Polymela (Ancient Greek: Πολυμήλα, romanized: Polumḗla), is one of the Aeolides, the children of Aeolus, keeper of the winds. Polymele lived with her family on the island of Aeolia, which beheld the wandering hero Odysseus arrive after a long war with Troy. Polymele fell in love with Odysseus and became his lover during his brief stay at Aeolia.

## Mythology

According to the Odyssey, Odysseus and his remaining crew arrived at the idyllic island of Aeolia, where Polymele and her family lived happily. They hosted them for a month, during which time Odysseus told them all about his adventures at Troy, where he and many other Greek kings spent ten years fighting the Trojans in order to get the queen of Sparta Helen back. When their stay came at an end, Odysseus received a bag with winds from Aeolus, and sailed away, but when the unleashed winds blew his ships back to Aeolia, Aeolus refused to help him twice and sent him away. According to Homer, Aeolus had twelve children equally divided between males and females, and had wed each of his six sons to one of his six daughters.
According to Parthenius of Nicaea however, during his stay at Aeolia (which he calls Meligunis) Polymele fell in love with Odysseus, and slept with him in secret. When he finally departed, he left her some spoils from the sacked Troy. Aeolus found his daughter weeping bitter tears and guarding aggressively the Trojan loot. Angered at Odysseus, Aeolus took his anger out on his daughter and was about to strike Polymele dead as punishment when Polymele's brother Diores, who was in love with her, interrupted them. Both he and Polymele then begged Aeolus to allow them to marry, to which he agreed.

# Lenin in Poland

Lenin in Poland (Russian: Ленин в Польше, romanized: Lenin v Polshe) is a 1966 Soviet historical drama film directed by Sergei Yutkevich. Yutkevich won the award for Best Director at the 1966 Cannes Film Festival.

## Plot

The film is set in 1914 at the outset of World War I, focusing on Vladimir Lenin's time in exile in the village of Poronin, located in the Carpathian foothills on Polish lands within the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Lenin, along with Nadezhda Krupskaya and her mother, Elizaveta Vasilievna, had previously visited Poronin two years before the war. By the summer of 1914, they had returned, moving from nearby Kraków. This location was convenient due to its proximity to the border with the Russian Empire.
However, as tensions escalated, Lenin was suspected of espionage by the Austrian authorities. Eight days into the war, he was arrested as a subject of a hostile foreign power and imprisoned. Locals were so suspicious of Lenin that he faced threats of mob justice. Despite being ordered to report to the prison in Nowy Targ voluntarily, Lenin delayed his departure to send urgent telegrams to influential Austrian social democrats. Among these was Victor Adler, a parliament member who successfully lobbied for Lenin's release by persuading the Interior Minister that Lenin was a greater enemy of the Russian government than even the minister himself. On August 19, Lenin was freed and departed for Switzerland. The film portrays the events surrounding Lenin's arrest and the struggle for his release as a central storyline.

## Actual events

In the summers of 1913 and 1914 Vladimir Lenin and Nadezhda Krupskaya rented a holiday home in Biały Dunajec and often stayed in a nearby Poronin inn. The area formed part of Austria-Hungary at that time (as a result of the Partitions of Poland), and when World War I broke out in mid-1914 the Austrian authorities arrested Lenin on suspicion of spying for Russia (August 1914), but deported him to Switzerland soon after (September 1914), after Lenin's defenders convinced the authorities that Lenin was actually an enemy of the Russian government.

# NJFX

NJFX, also known as New Jersey Fiber Exchange, is a Wall Township, New Jersey–based data center and subsea cable landing station operator. The company offers Tier 3 data center, meet-me room and colocation services, and a cable landing station on a 58 acre campus.

## History

NJFX was founded by Gil Santaliz, a telecommunications executive who in 2008 sold metro dark fiber provider 4Connections to Optimum Lightpath, a subsidiary of New York cable operator Cablevision (now Altice USA). Tata Communications was a founding partner of NJFX.
NJFX opened a meet-me room (MMR) within Tata Communication's Wall, New Jersey subsea cable landing station (CLS). One of Tata's cables terminating in the cable landing station is the Seabras-1 undersea cable, which links North America and Brazil, with a landing point in São Paulo. Tata's TGN Atlantic subsea cable also lands in Wall Township, connecting to Highbridge, Somerset, United Kingdom. As the MMR operator, NJFX managed the network connections between its own customers and those of Tata Communication's CLS.
In September 2015, NJFX announced they would be constructing a 64,000 sq ft Tier III data center adjacent to Tata's CLS, providing direct access to their European and South America subsea cables. Design would be done by Boston-based Bala Consulting Engineers.
In January 2016, voice and data network provider Windstream announced it was extending its 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100G) network from NJFX's presence at the CLS to Ashburn, Virginia's Internet hub.
In January 2017, its Tier III center was completed. In March, NJFX announced they were adding an additional data center on their campus.
In September 2018, the company announced that the HAVFRUE transatlantic submarine network cable would be landing at its Wall, New Jersey, cable landing station. The cable was planned to run between New Jersey and Denmark, with branches to Norway and Ireland.
In March 2019, Amazon Web Services signed an agreement with Norwegian infrastructure company Bulk Infrastructure to use the upcoming HAVFRUE cable at its United States termination points at NJFX's campus, along with termination points at Dublin, Norway and Western Denmark.
In December 2020, the 7851km HAVFRUE cable went into service as the first new undersea cable traveling from Northern Europe to the US in nearly 20 years. It terminated at the NJFX facility in Wall, NJ, and its capacity services were marketed by operator Aqua Comms under the name American Europe Connect-2 (AEC-2).

## Services

NJFX operates a data center campus in Wall Township, New Jersey, offering meet-me room, data center and colocation services to business customers. The center is adjacent to a substation operated by Jersey Central Power & Light (JCP&L), a subsidiary of energy giant FirstEnergy. The NJFX campus also contains a cable landing station serving several subsea cables, including the HAVFRUE AEC-2 cable connecting to Northern Europe, as well as Tata's TGN1 and TGN2 cables, and Seaborn Networks' Seabras cable. Notable clients include Google, Facebook, US telecommunications company CenturyLink (now Lumen Technologies), Verizon Communications, and Amazon Web Services.

Jedediah Hyde Lathrop (July 5, 1806 – November 23, 1889) was an American merchant.

## Early life

Lathrop was born on July 5, 1806, in Lebanon in Grafton County, New Hampshire. He was a younger son of Lois (née Huntington) Lathrop (1765–1846) and Samuel Lathrop (1756–1821), a soldier in the Revolutionary War.
A descendant of the puritan John Lothropp, his paternal grandparents were Elisha Lathrop and Hannah (née Hough) Lathrop. His maternal grandparents were Theophelus Huntington and Lois (née Gifford) Huntington.

## Career

In 1842, Lathrop was appointed by President John Tyler to succeed George W. Clinton as the Collector of the Port of Buffalo, serving in that position until 1845. He acquired a sizable fortune through stock investments, as well as banking associated with the Riggs Bank. Following the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, he made several large investments in Chicago real estate that greatly increased his wealth.
Lathrop and his wife were strong unionists, and, in the leadup to the American Civil War, the family left Alexandria, Virginia, to settle in Chicago, where his wife's brother, Thomas Barbour Bryan, had been living since 1852. They settled in the suburb of Cottage Hill, today's Elmhurst, Illinois, where they built their "Huntington" estate in 1864, adjacent to Bryan's "Eagles Nest".

## Personal life

In 1843, Lathrop was married to Mary Ann Bryan (1820–1893), a daughter of Virginia State Senator Daniel Bryan and Mary Thomas (née Barbour) Bryan (the daughter of Thomas Barbour and sister to Gov. James Barbour and U.S. Representative and Supreme Court Justice Philip P. Barbour). Her brother was philanthropist Thomas Barbour Bryan. Together, they were the parents of:
* Bryan Lathrop (1844–1916), a real estate developer who married Helen Lynde Aldis, daughter of Asa Owen Aldis, in 1875.
* Barbour Thomas Lathrop (1847–1927)
* Caroline Huntington Lathrop (1853–1854), who died young.
* Minna Byrd Lathrop (1857–1877), who died unmarried.
* Florence Wentworth Lathrop (1858–1921), who married Henry Field, younger brother of Marshall Field, in 1879. After his death in 1890, she married Thomas Nelson Page, the U.S. Ambassador to Italy during World War I, in 1893.
Lathrop died on November 23, 1889, in Chicago, and was buried at Graceland Cemetery.

# Felix Greene

Felix Greene (21 May 1909 – 15 June 1985) was a British journalist who chronicled several communist countries in the 1960s and 1970s.
Greene stood as a National Labour candidate in the 1931 election while still a law student. Greene was defeated in South East Essex by a Conservative candidate who refused to stand aside for National Labour, despite the two parties being allies in Ramsay MacDonald's National Government. He did, however, achieve a higher poll than any of the National Labour candidates opposed by Conservatives.
He was one of the first Western reporters to visit North Vietnam when he travelled there for the San Francisco Chronicle in the 1960s. He first visited China for the BBC in 1957.
Greene later produced documentary films, including One Man's China, Tibet, Cuba va!, Vietnam! Vietnam! and Inside North Viet Nam. Right-wing critics have accused these films of presenting a one-sided view of communist society. The Wall Street Journal argued that Greene purposely hid negative information about the extent of starvation in China and called him a "fellow traveller."
Commander R. W. Herrick of the U.S. Navy reviewed A Curtain of Ignorance in Naval War College Review, writing, "There can be no question but that [Greene] set out deliberately to 'prove' his contentions that practically everything having to do with Communist China and its policies is good, while Chiang Kai-shek and the Nationalist regimes are unmitigatedly bad. ... Yet, once the reader understands and allows for this bias, this book is eminently worth reading." Herrick agreed with Greene's observation that "... on matters where great national feelings are aroused, scholars and experts are just as likely as the rest of us to allow their judgments to be swayed by the prevailing climate of opinion." He found the chapters on Nationalist China and the China Lobby to be provocative reading.
In the 1970s, Greene went to Dharamsala to visit the 14th Dalai Lama, who recalled that after three days of discussion, Greene's attitude had changed.
Greene lived in the San Francisco area for 20 years and died in Mexico of cancer. He was a cousin of the author Graham Greene.
