# Bud Davis

# Vice Vukov

Vinko "Vice" Vukov (3 August 1936 – 24 September 2008) was a Croatian singer and politician.

## Biography

Vukov was born in Šibenik. In 1959, he achieved instant fame by winning the Opatija Music Festival in his singing debut, with the song "Mirno teku rijeke" (Rivers Are Calmly Flowing). During the 1960s, he was one of the most popular singers in Yugoslavia, appearing at the Eurovision Song Contest 1963 with the song "Brodovi" (Ships) and at the Eurovision Song Contest 1965 with the song "Čežnja" (Longing).
In the aftermath of the 1971 Croatian Spring movement, he was branded a Croatian nationalist by Yugoslav authorities and had his apartment searched by the police during the 1972 wave of arrests of Croatian Spring leaders. Vukov was touring Australia at the time. His wife warned him not to return to Yugoslavia to avoid arrest, so instead he went to live in France, returning to Yugoslavia four years later in 1976. By that time, the authorities had lost interest in his case, but his singing career was effectively over; he was blacklisted, barred from performing publicly and all his records were pulled out of stores.
In 1978, he graduated from the University of Zagreb's Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (FFZG) majoring in philosophy and Italian.
In 1989, an album of his new songs, albeit without his name on the cover, reappeared in Croatian music stores, signalling the political change. Later that same year, Vukov made a public comeback with a series of 14 sold-out concerts at the Vatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall in Zagreb.
Vukov is best remembered for recording some of the most popular lyrical Croatian patriotic songs, including "Zvona moga grada" (My Hometown's Bells), "Hrvatski kraj" (Croatian Countryside) and "Tvoja zemlja" (Your Land).
After the first multi-party election in Croatia and the country's independence in 1991, Vukov became a prominent supporter of the opposition Social Democratic Party (SDP). He ran several times for a seat in the Croatian Parliament, finally succeeding as an independent candidate on the SDP party ticket in 2003.
On 17 November 2005, while descending the stairs in the Parliament building, Vukov slipped and fell, sustaining a serious head injury. He was hospitalised and underwent surgery, but fell into a coma shortly afterwards. In March 2006, according to his doctors, he was in a persistent vegetative state with no chance of recovery. However, in November 2007, Vukov was reported as being conscious at times, aware of his surroundings, and his condition was described as stable. He died in Zagreb in September 2008 aged 72.
# Tokwe River

# Iosif Kryvelev

Iosif Aronovich Kryvelev (Russian: Иосиф Аронович Крывелёв, 1906–1991) was a Soviet scholar of religion and historian of Judaism and Christianity. From 1959 until his death, Kryvelev was affiliated with the Ethnography Institute of the Soviet Academy of Sciences (now Institute of Anthropology and Ethnography). By the end of the 1980s Kryvelev remained as virtually the only proponent of Christ myth theory in Soviet academia.

## Life

Kryvelev was born in Moscow and graduated from the Moscow Institute of History and Philosophy in 1934. From 1932 he taught philosophy. Kryvelev was affiliated with Soviet atheism propaganda, having worked in the Central Museum of Irreligion in 1936–39. During World War II he fought in the military. In 1947–49, Kryvelev worked in the Philosophy Institute of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. He attained the degrees of Doctor of Philosophy and Professor. In the academic career, Kryvelev declared his adherence to the Marxist–Leninist worldview, being convinced that "the objective elucidation of historico-religious problems leads to the revealing of those aspects of religion which characterise it as the opium of the people, as a reactionary ideology acting against the interests of mankind". Along with Soviet Armenian philosopher Suren Kaltakhchyan, Kryvelev published antireligious articles in Komsomolskaya Pravda. In July 1986, Kryvelev criticised Chinghiz Aitmatov's novel The Place of the Skull, believing that to reject principled, logical atheism was to reject the "very foundations of a scientific and materialist worldview". Kryvelev's critical article spurred a reply from Soviet poet Yevgeni Yevtushenko in December 1986. Yevtushenko argued that Kryvelev had made a mistake by confusing the opinions of the novel's hero with those of Aitmatov himself. Kryvelev died in Moscow in 1991.

# Kingsfield Airfield

Kingsfield Airfield (nicknamed Noddy Land) (ICAO: LCRE) is a small airfield located in the Eastern Sovereign Base Area of Cyprus. No. 16 Flight AAC which operated Westland Gazelle AH.1 helicopters was based here at Kingsfield Airfield.

## History

Kingsfield Airfield was opened in 1960s by the British Army's Army Air Corps, an opening ceremony was held with an English Electric Canberra Bomber flyover and 33 Field Squadron Land Rovers emerging from the back of a Blackburn Beverley aircraft operated by the No. 47 Squadron RAF. The airfield earned the nickname Noddy Land as people stationed there only had morning shifts because of the afternoons being too hot. The airfield served as an emergency landing-strip.

### Runaway Hercules

In September 1972, a Lockheed C-130 Hercules aircraft was left with one engine running during mid-unloading. During the time, the crew left the loadmaster in the cockpit to join an ice-cream queue. Due to a mistake, the brake pressure dropped causing the aircraft to taxi itself towards a nearby hangar. This resulted in considerable damage to the nose, in which the aircraft was tested with a touch-and-go maneuver to decide if it would be scrapped or not. Later on, C1 XV209 was prepared to be able to fly to RAF Akrotiri for full repairs.
In the late 1980s, Kingsfield Airfield made headlines as the RAF conducted trials of 'desert pink' paint on aircraft at the base which made aircraft ‘invisible’ during flight. These trials became successful and was used on numerous RAF aircraft during the Gulf War of 1991.

### Crusasers Gliding Club

In the 1960s, the Crusaders Gliding Club was established at the airfield. The club used the two former RAF hangars for aircraft storage and maintenance on the southwestern side of the airfield, and also operated a fleet of 1 Scheibe Falke, 1 Slingsby T.21, 2 ASK 13s, 1 Schleicher K 8, and 1 Schleicher ASK 18. It operated there until 29th February 2012, when it was shut down due to the Airspace Rules set by the Cypriot Air Authorities.

## Present

As of now, Kingsfield Airfield opens to recreational flight by the Cyprus Skydive Association on the weekends, and continues military operations on weekdays.
