# Brandenburger Symphoniker

The Brandenburger Symphoniker is a German orchestra based in Brandenburg an der Havel. Its home venue is the CulturCongressCentrum [de] there. It is affiliated to the Brandenburger Theater [de].

## History

The orchestra was founded in 1810 by high-ranking Prussian military musicians from the fusiliers and grenadiers regiments. From 1866, the successful music ensemble called itself the Orchestra of the Brandenburg Theatre. After the German reunification the orchestra got the name "Brandenburger Symphoniker".
The orchestra is not only active as a symphony orchestra, but also in opera performances and for several years has been playing in productions for the Kammeroper Schloss Rheinsberg festival. The Brandenburg Symphony Orchestra regularly performs in Berlin (Konzerthaus Berlin, Berliner Philharmonie), Potsdam (Nikolaisaal [de]), Frankfurt (Oder) (concert hall) and other cities in the Land of Brandenburg, but also gives guest performances throughout Germany and abroad. Guest performances have taken the orchestra through Europe, to the US, Japan, South Africa and China. The Brandenburg Symphony Orchestra is a regular guest at the Festival MúsicaMallorca [de] in Palma.
In 2020, Olivier Tardy had been appointed as chief conductor of the orchestra, with an initially intended starting date of the 2021–2022 season. In February 2021, the orchestra announced revised plans for Tardy to work with the orchestra as principal guest conductor in the 2021–2022 season, and to become chief conductor in the 2022–2023 season. Subsequently in 2021, Hardy declined a later contract offer from the Brandenburger Theater, and never took up the post with the Brandenburger Symphoniker or the Brandenburger Theater.
In October 2022, the orchestra announced the appointment of Andreas Spering as its next chief conductor, effective 1 August 2023, with an initial contract of 5 years.
The Jacaranda Ensemble, founded in 1997, is a German instrumental ensemble made up of musicians and soloists from the Brandenburg Symphony Orchestra.

# Julie Crooks

Julie Crooks is a Canadian curator, researcher and instructor. She has been the head of the department of Arts of Global Africa and the Diaspora at the Art Gallery of Ontario since its founding in 2020.

## Biography

Crooks was born in England and is the sister-in-law of athlete Charmaine Crooks. She emigrated to Canada with her family in 1968 where she attended St. Joseph's College School. She completed an undergraduate degree in interdisciplinary studies and a MA in English Literature at York University. Crooks completed her PhD at SOAS University of London in 2014. Her research focused on Sierra Leone, West Africa, and the diaspora. After completing her studies she was a Rebanks Post Doctoral Fellow at the Royal Ontario Museum from 2014 to 2016. During that time, she co-curated the exhibit Here We Are Here: Black Canadian Contemporary Art with African collection curator Silvia Forni and Haitian-born researcher Dominique Fontaine. The exhibit has since traveled to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia.

## Exhibits

Crooks joined the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) as Assistant Curator of Photography in 2017. She curated her first exhibit Free Black North the same year. Featuring photographs from the Archives of Ontario and Brock University's Archives & Special Collections, the exhibit focused on the lives of descents of Black refugees and formally enslaved people from the United States living in southern Ontario during the mid-to-late 1800s. She also worked an exhibit called Ears, Eyes, Voice: Black Canadian Photojournalists 1970s-1990s’. In 2018, Crooks worked with Mickalene Thomas on a solo exhibit of the visual artist's work. As photography curator, she played an integral role in the acquisition of the Montgomery Collection, which consists of more than 3,500 of historical images documenting life in the Caribbean islands. This collection is possibly the largest collection of photographs from the Caribbean islands. She is a co-founder of the Black Curators Forum, which launched in 2019 and supports Black curators in Canada. She is also a founding member of Black Artists Network in Dialogue (BAND), and she has curated exhibits for them.
In 2020, the AGO named Crooks as the head of the newly established department of Arts of Global Africa and the Diaspora aimed at developing collections from the African continent and diaspora.
Crooks was one of three individuals chosen as a jury sitter for the 2020 Middlebrook Prize for Young Canadian Curators. In this role, she was tasked with selecting an artist to receive the prize of a space for their submitted exhibition or honorarium.
# Heptagonal number

In mathematics, a heptagonal number is a figurate number that is constructed by combining heptagons with ascending size. The n-th heptagonal number is given by the formula
    $H_{n}={\frac {5n^{2}-3n}{2}}$.
The first few heptagonal numbers are:
    0, 1, 7, 18, 34, 55, 81, 112, 148, 189, 235, 286, 342, 403, 469, 540, 616, 697, 783, 874, 970, 1071, 1177, 1288, 1404, 1525, 1651, 1782, … (sequence A000566 in the OEIS)

## Parity

The parity of heptagonal numbers follows the pattern odd-odd-even-even. Like square numbers, the digital root in base 10 of a heptagonal number can only be 1, 4, 7 or 9. Five times a heptagonal number, plus 1 equals a triangular number.

## Additional properties

* The heptagonal numbers have several notable formulas:
    $H_{m+n}=H_{m}+H_{n}+5mn$
    $H_{m-n}=H_{m}+H_{n}-5mn+3n$
    $H_{m}-H_{n}={\frac {(5(m+n)-3)(m-n)}{2}}$
    $40H_{n}+9=(10n-3)^{2}$

## Sum of reciprocals

A formula for the sum of the reciprocals of the heptagonal numbers is given by:
    ${\begin{aligned}\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {2}{n(5n-3)}}&={\frac {1}{15}}{\pi }{\sqrt {25-10{\sqrt {5}}}}+{\frac {2}{3}}\ln(5)+{\frac {{1}+{\sqrt {5}}}{3}}\ln \left({\frac {1}{2}}{\sqrt {10-2{\sqrt {5}}}}\right)+{\frac {{1}-{\sqrt {5}}}{3}}\ln \left({\frac {1}{2}}{\sqrt {10+2{\sqrt {5}}}}\right)\\&={\frac {1}{3}}\left({\frac {\pi }{\sqrt[{4}]{5\,\phi ^{6}}}}+{\frac {5}{2}}\ln(5)-{\sqrt {5}}\ln(\phi )\right)\\&=1.3227792531223888567\dots \end{aligned}}$
with golden ratio $\phi ={\tfrac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}$.

## Heptagonal roots

In analogy to the square root of x, one can calculate the heptagonal root of x, meaning the number of terms in the sequence up to and including x.
The heptagonal root of x is given by the formula
    $n={\frac {{\sqrt {40x+9}}+3}{10}},$
which is obtained by using the quadratic formula to solve $x={\frac {5n^{2}-3n}{2}}$ for its unique positive root n.

# Saki Hyōtanyama Kofun

Saki Hyōtanyama Kofun (佐紀瓢箪山古墳) is a burial mound, located in the Sakiemondo-chō neighborhood of the city of Nara in the Kansai region of Japan. The tumulus was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1971. It is often referred to as the Hyōtanyama Kofun (瓢箪山古墳), although there are many kofun with the same name throughout Japan.

## Overview

The Saki Hyōtanyama Kofun is located is located on the Saki Hills, which mark the northern edge of the Nara Basin. It is one of the Saki Tatenami Kofun cluster, which consists of several very large keyhole-shaped kofun and many large and small kofun built from the early to late Kofun period. Most of the large kofun in this group are designated as imperial tombs by the Imperial Household Agency, and access to the mounds is not permitted and no archaeological excavations have taken place. However, there are three large tumuli of about 100 meters in size that were not designated as imperial tombs, including the Saki Hyōtanyama Kofun.
The tumulus was a zenpō-kōen-fun (前方後円墳), which is shaped like a keyhole, having one square end and one circular end, when viewed from above. However, in 1913, the western side of the front part of the tumulus was removed, and three stone products in the shape of string bridges for a koto (Japanese zither) made of jasper buried in an oval clay coffin measuring 100 cm in length and 60 cm in width was reportedly unearthed. When the tumulus was designated a National Historic Site in 1971, and a survey and small-scale archaeological excavation was conducted. The total length of the tumulus is 96 meters. The circular posterior portion has a diameter 60 meters and height of 10 meters, and anterior rectangular portion has a width of 45 meters and height of seven meters. The excavation revealed there was no moat from the front to the western corner of the anterior portion of the tumulus, as it had been constructed adjacent to the circular Maruzuka Tomb to the southwest. This was a preexisting tumulus, but the builders of the Saki Hyōtanyama Kofun did not want to destroy it during construction, and the two tumuli coexisted with no moat in between. The Maruzuka Kofun was mostly destroyed for soil collection in 1914, and the reason why the Saki Hyōtanyama Kofun had to be built so close to it is unclear. If the tumulus had been constructed slightly to the north, it would have been possible to completely surround it by a moat, so it is clear that there was an intentional purpose for constructing it so close. The tumulus was covered with fukiishi roofing stones and contained haniwa clay figurines.
The tumulus is about a 15-minute walk from Heijō Station on the Kintetsu Kyoto Line.
# Canadien (ice hockey)

Canadien is a Canadian brand of ice hockey equipment owned by Birch Hill Equity Partners through its portfolio company Sport Maska Inc. The Canadien brand was created in 1969 in Drummondville, Quebec and was manufactured originally by the company Les industries du hockey Canadien, Inc. The original company was sold in 1978, and since that time the Canadien brand has gone through numerous ownership changes. Since 1998 it has been part of a consolidated group of six hockey brands that comprises Canadien, CCM, Heaton, Jofa, Koho, and Titan. In 2017, Birch Hill Equity Partners of Toronto acquired the group of brands, which are held by the company Sport Maska. While CCM remains the flagship brand of the group, products made under the Canadien name appear occasionally.

## History

In 1969, a group of 15 investors joined to form a hockey stick manufacturing company called Les industries du hockey Canadien, Inc. Among the investors were Montreal Canadiens players Serge Savard, Yvan Cournoyer, and Guy Lapointe. The company established its operations in Drummondville, Quebec, the hometown of Cournoyer. Canadien grew rapidly and by 1976 held 17 per cent of the hockey stick market, the second largest market share after Sher-Wood.
In 1977, graphic designer Georges Huel designed the company's wordmark and triangle logo.
In late 1978, the Canadien company was acquired by Action Traders, Inc. of Toronto. Then, the following year, Action Traders sold Canadien to Amer of Finland. The previous year, Amer had bought Koho, therefore, the purchase expanded expanded the company's reach in the hockey market. Amer continued to produce hockey equipment under the Koho and Canadien names until 1986, when it sold its hockey operations to Karhu, also of Finland. Karhu had entered the hockey market in 1972 when it acquired Titan, and then in 1985 it purchased Jofa from Volvo. In the early 1990s, Karhu acquired goalie equipment company Heaton, creating a portfolio of five hockey brands.
Karhu's hockey operations were transferred to its Canadian arm Karhu Canada, Inc., which was renamed the Sports Holdings Corporation in the 1990s. In 1998, Sports Holdings was acquired by SLM International, the holding company for Sport Maska, Inc., which itself owned the CCM brand. In 1999, SLM renamed itself The Hockey Company. As the owner of the CCM, Jofa, Titan, Koho, Canadien, and Heaton brands, The Hockey Company became the dominant player in the hockey equipment market.
In June 2004, Reebok acquired The Hockey Company. After the sale, it phased out all brands save CCM and introduced its own RBK line of products. In August 2005, Adidas acquired Reebok. Adidas continued to produce hockey equipment under the CCM brand primarily.
In July 2017, Adidas sold its hockey holdings to Birch Hill Equity Partners of Toronto for around $110 million. Its hockey operations were at this time consolidated in the subsidiary Sport Maska, Inc., which owned the rights to the six brands. Since the purchase in 2017, CCM has remained the flagship brand of the group, though products that use the other five brand names appear sporadically.
# Walkin' to Missouri

"Walkin' to Missouri" is a popular song written by Bob Merrill in 1952. Sammy Kaye's version peaked at No. 11 (U.S.) in 1952. In the United Kingdom, Tony Brent's cover version reached No. 7 in the UK Singles Chart in January 1953.

## Background

The song is a prodigal son allegory about a young man (the story's metaphorical "robin") who could not fly and could only walk all the way back to his old home in Missouri, following a life of partying in the big city jazz scene - or the repercussions that happened as a result. During the course of the song, it transpired that he had "met a birdie who looked so nice", who, until the end, was secretly having an affair with someone else. While the song does not make any details of the revelation, it can be gleaned from the last verse that the protagonist was forced out of his comfort zone and likely lost money: "His dreams are battered, his feathers bent/And he hasn't got a cent/He feels like his heart is gonna break". The song, at the end, urges the listeners to show this "robin" some kindness if he ever approaches them, because the mistake is an easy one to make.
The initial release of Kaye's recording coincided with the 1952 United States presidential election campaigns. Disc jockeys around the U.S. used the allegory of the lyrics "walkin' to Missouri...got a teardrop in his eye" as a jab to Harry S. Truman, who returned to his home in Independence, Missouri, following his tenure as President of the United States. This contributed to airplay and the subsequent popularity of the song.

* Lita Roza in (1953),
* Sue Thompson in (1957),
* Russ Morgan in (1958).

# Thomas W. Osborn

Thomas Ward Osborn (March 9, 1833 – December 18, 1898) was a Union Army officer, freedmen bureau official, 1868 Florida Constitutional Convention delegate, state senator, and United States Senator representing Florida.

## Early life

Osborn was born in Scotch Plains, New Jersey, the son of John and Amelia Osborn. He and his family moved to North Wilna, New York in 1842 where he worked on the family farm until 1854. In 1854, Osborn took college preparatory courses and, in 1860, he graduated from Madison University (now Colgate University) of Hamilton, New York.
After graduating, Osborn worked in a law office in Watertown, New York and was admitted to the New York bar association in 1861.

## Military service

With the American Civil War looming, Osborn did not practice law for long. After the First Battle of Bull Run in 1861, he entered the Union Army as lieutenant. From his home in Jefferson County, New York, Osborn raised a company for light artillery service which became known as Company (or Battery) D, First Regiment, New York Light Artillery.
Osborn's company served with the Army of the Potomac earning high marks and he was promoted to captain, major and colonel. As major, Osborn served under Major General Oliver O. Howard in the XI Corps leading in exemplary fashion (although the XI Corps was routed in both the Battle of Chancellorsville and Battle of Gettysburg). Osborn commanded the corps' artillery brigade at Gettysburg, and he was involved in the defense of Cemetery Hill on July 2, 1863, when the position was attacked by troops of Maj. Gen. Jubal Early.
Osborn transferred to the Western theater with Howard. He served as inspector general when Howard became commander of the Army of the Tennessee. He left a detailed account of Maj. Gen. William T. Sherman's March to the Sea.

## Reconstruction and politics

After Osborn's military service ended, he was appointed assistant commissioner for the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands as part of Reconstruction in Florida in 1865 and 1866. He also practiced law while living in Tallahassee, Florida.
Osborn was a member of the State constitutional convention which created The 1868 Florida Constitution. He then moved to Pensacola, Florida and was elected to the Florida Senate.
Shortly thereafter, Florida was reinstated to the U.S. Congress. While still only in his mid-30s, Osborn was elected to the United States Senate as a Republican and served from 1868 to 1873. He is credited with being instrumental in passing legislation to complete construction of the Washington Monument (which had been halted since before the Civil War).

## Retirement

Osborn did not run for reelection in 1872. He served as the U.S. commissioner at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1876, the first official world's fair in the United States.
In his retirement, Osborn engaged in law and literature in New York City where he died in 1898. Thomas Osborn is interred at Hillside Cemetery in North Adams, Massachusetts.
