# Revenue block

Revenue blocks, revenue circles, firka, or patwar circles are the local revenue sub-divisions of the various districts of the states of India. The revenue blocks exist to simplify local administration, and each consists of a small number of revenue villages, governed by a revenue inspector. The revenue inspector is charged with a number of key administrative roles, most notably the identification and collection of tax revenue. Sometimes the land area in a revenue circle is identified as an inspector land revenue circle for administrative purposes. While revenue blocks may be as large as or larger than a tehsildar, revenue circles are generally smaller. In the state of Tamil Nadu alone, there are 1,349 revenue blocks.
# Ernst Hoffmann (conductor)

Ernst Heinrich Hoffmann (June 18, 1899–January 3, 1956) was an American conductor who served as the music director of the Houston Symphony for eleven years.
Hoffmann was born in Boston, Massachusetts. His father was a violinist in the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Although Ernst was an accomplished musician in his youth, during which he studied piano with the noted Harold Bauer, he enrolled in the anthropology program at Harvard University. Hoffmann was graduated cum laude in that discipline, whereupon he was offered a position on the Harvard anthropology faculty. He chose instead to go to Germany in 1920 to study music at the conservatory in Berlin. During this time he met Annemarie Clara ("Mini") Hoffmann (her maiden name), a native German teacher of mathematics and languages, whom he married in 1922, and with whom he had one child, a son, Clifford (born in 1927).
Following his Berlin studies, Hoffmann performed as a violinist in Berlin theatre orchestras, often under the baton of the eminent Richard Strauss. In 1924 he was appointed conductor-in-chief of the Breslau Opera and Philharmonic, a position he held for ten years until, under the advent of Hitler's regime, he was declared unacceptable for the position because of his American citizenship.
Hoffmann returned to the United States in 1934. In Boston, he founded the Commonwealth Symphony Orchestra and became its music director. There he came to the attention of leaders of the Houston Symphony, and he was engaged as that orchestra's music director in 1936. Hoffmann was a popular figure in Houston, and his tenure on the podium there was the longest of any music director to that point.
In 1947 Hoffmann left Houston and soon afterward accepted a position as director of orchestral music at Indiana University, a position he held until his death.
En route to Indiana following a Christmas 1955 visit to their son in Houston, Ernst and Annemarie Hoffmann died in an automobile accident near Clarksdale, Mississippi, on January 3, 1956.

# Bamahane

Bamahane (also BaMahane, Hebrew: במחנה, lit. in the base camp) was a Hebrew-language weekly magazine published by the Israel Defense Forces. It was first published in December 1934 by the Haganah and was published as a weekly until December 2016, when it was moved online until it was formally merged into the IDF's website in January 2020.

## History

Bamahane started in December 1934 as an underground publication by the Tel Aviv office of the Haganah. Its chief editor, until 1947, was Ephraim Talmi. Notable writers, such as Nathan Alterman and Leah Goldberg, wrote for it. At the end of 1947 it became the Haganah's national publication. During that time period, Moshe Shamir became its chief editor. With the founding of the IDF, Bamahane became the soldiers' newspaper.
Between 2000 and 2005, Bamahane consisted of 2 parts: one including news articles related to military and security matters, and the other containing editorials, interviews, photo-ops, etc. From January 2006 until December 2016, it was one publication in the form of a 68-page magazine.
While Bamahane was subordinate to the IDF's Education and Youth Corps, it is unusually independent, and until 2006, was not censored by the IDF Spokesman. As such, its content was the center of several controversies, to the extent that in May 2001, the head of the Education Corps, Brigadier General Elazar Stern, decided to close the publication, an order which did not come to pass.
Bamahane's circulation was in the tens of thousands, mainly read by soldiers who receive the magazine in their bases on Thursdays. Additionally, many Israeli civilians close to the IDF choose to subscribe to the publication.
Bamahane's final chief editor (from 2013–2016) was Tzachi Biran. Additionally, Bamahane employed about 20 writers. the editor before Tzachi was Yoni Shanfeld.

## Controversies

In May 2001, the commander of the Education Corps at the time, Elazar Stern, ordered the closure of Bamahane, due to 'questionable material', including a front-page article about a homosexual colonel. Due to public outrage and an appeal to Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, Bamahane continued to exist.
In September 2005, 3 of Bamahane's writers were dismissed for not following a prohibition from the IDF Spokesperson's Unit to document and publish stories and photographs of the relocation of Jewish graves from Gush Katif into Israel proper. As a result of this and other incidents, in January 2006, the head of the Manpower Directorate, now Major General Elazar Stern, ordered each piece in the magazine to undergo careful inspection by the spokesperson's unit. Bamahane's staff accused him of attempting to turn the publication into another Pravda.

# Gao Fengwen

Gao Fengwen (Chinese: 高丰文; 23 November 1939 – 27 October 2020) was a Chinese football coach and an international football player.

## Playing career

Gao Fengwen was born in Kaiyuan. He was a promising young footballer and would play for Liaoning FC before being called up to the Chinese national team in 1965 where he was honoured with being the team's captain. The Chinese Cultural Revolution saw his career severely shortened and he was unable to play in any major international tournaments. He did, however, play in several small tournaments and was able to represent his country on several occasions before he retired.

## Management career

After he retired Gao Fengwen went to Yemen in 1974 and then to Burundi in 1977 to teach for several years before returning in 1979 to China, where he took a training course in coaching before being offered the Chinese youth team position. During his reign he would lead China into the 1982 AFC Youth Championship where China came second before also taking on the Chinese U-16 team in the 1985 FIFA U-16 World Championship where he would lead them to a quarterfinals position. After his experiences with the previous Chinese teams he would go on to be promoted to the Chinese senior team on December 25, 1986 where his first assignment was to make sure China qualify for the 1988 AFC Asian Cup. After successfully achieving this he would then lead the senior team in the Football at the 1988 Summer Olympics for the first time. While it was an achievement that China took part in their first ever Olympics at the football the tournament was however considered very disappointing and the team was unable to score a single goal. Given the chance of another tournament only a few months later with the 1988 AFC Asian Cup Gao's fortunes would change and this time he would lead China to a more successful tournament and lead China to semifinals position where he narrowly missed out leading China to the final after losing to Korea Republic in extra time. Gao would also narrowly miss out in leading China to qualify for the 1990 FIFA World Cup after losing to Qatar in the final game in the dying minutes of the game and elimination from the qualifiers. Despite this, Gao kept his job and he led China in the Football at the 1990 Asian Games; however, this tournament turned out to be a disaster after they lost to Thailand and were eliminated, which led Gao to resign. Leaving management behind, he started his own football school in 1996.
