# Stephen Graham (author)

Stephen Graham (19 March 1884 – 15 March 1975) was a British journalist, travel-writer, essayist and novelist. His best-known books recount his travels around pre-revolutionary Russia and his journey to Jerusalem with a group of Russian Christian pilgrims. Most of his works express his sympathy for the poor, for agricultural labourers and for tramps, and his distaste for industrialisation.

## Biography

Graham was born in Edinburgh, the son of P. Anderson Graham, the essayist and editor of the periodical, Country Life. Shortly after his birth his family moved to Cheltenham. At the age of fourteen Graham left school and worked in London as a clerk in the law courts and the civil service. He began to study Russian under Nicolai Lebedev, with whom he spent a holiday at Lysychansk near the Sea of Azov - an experience which began a lifelong interest in Russia. Shortly after returning to Britain he gave up his job and returned to Russia to hike around the Caucasus and the Urals. Thereafter he supported himself by his journalism and his books. He also taught English in Moscow.
In the early 20th century Lord Northcliffe commissioned Graham to write reports from Russia for his newspaper, The Times. Not long after his arrival in Russia he met Rosa Savory, whom he married in Russia in 1909. He was twenty-five; she, forty years old. During the First World War Graham found himself in the Altai Mountains, from which he sent accounts of the war as seen from a Russian point of view, which were published in The Times and republished as Russia and the World (1915) and Through Russian Central Asia (1916).
Graham returned to Britain and enlisted in the Scots Guards, as a private soldier rather than as an officer, because "to serve in the ranks is a unique opportunity to get to know the working man". He reached the Western Front in April 1918; and the following year published an account of his wartime experiences in A Private in the Guards (1919), in which he considers the human cost at which an elite military unit is created (one whose unofficial ethos was that "a good soldier was one who would not take a prisoner".) The book's first sentence is: "The sterner the discipline the better the soldier, the better the army". The book explores the paradox that the ideals for which Britain was fighting could only be achieved by means that were frequently brutal.
In 1921 Graham revisited the western battle-fields and published his observations in The Challenge of the Dead (1921). Graham later spent some time in the United States of America. He published accounts of immigrants in the States; and after becoming a friend of the poet Vachel Lindsay published Tramping with a Poet (1922), which was illustrated by Vernon Hill. In 1926 (later reprints occurred) he wrote, The Gentle Art of Tramping. This book gives some insight into his values, as well as a guide to living a simple, traveller's life during that period in his life. In 1964 he published his autobiography, Part of the Wonderful Scene.

# Shah Asrar-ud-Din

Hazrat Shah Asrar-ud-Din Baghdadi was a prominent Islamic Sufi saint in the region of Kishtwar, Jammu & Kashmir. His legacy and spiritual influence remain significant among the followers of Sufism and beyond. He was the son of Hazrat Shah Farid-ud-Din Baghdadi, a revered Sufi master, and his family lineage traces back to Baghdad, Iraq with references to their lineage being from Abdul Qadir Gilani, which is why they are referred to as "Baghdadi."

## Early life

His father, Hazrat Shah Farid-ud-Din, recognized these signs and guided him on the path of Sufism. According to legends, Shah Asrar's father prepared a special sugar syrup on the 25th day of Kartik, recited Quranic verses over it, and then gave it to Shah Asrar to drink, which led to his passing and return to God. He lived for only eighteen years but left a profound impact on his followers and the community.

Shah Asrar-ud-Din is remembered for his miracles and spiritual guidance. His teachings emphasized the importance of Tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and the principles of Islam. He was known to have performed numerous miracles, which drew people from various backgrounds to seek his blessings and spiritual guidance. His shrine, known as Darbar-e-Asrariya or Astan-e-Payeen, located in Kishtwar, remains a major pilgrimage site.

## Urs celebration

This event is marked by various religious activities, including recitations of the Quran, prayers, and communal meals. It is a time when people from different faiths come together, reflecting the inclusive nature of Sufism that Shah Asrar-ud-Din preached and practiced.

In the fall of 2004, the station was sold to Edwards Communications. Past owners have included Huron Shore Broadcasters (the original owners when the station went on the air in the 1960s), WHSB Inc., Daraka Broadcasting, and Northern Radio Network Corporation (from whom Edwards acquired the station along with sister stations WHAK-AM/FM Rogers City and then-WCLS Oscoda in 2004).

WHSB is also the radio home of Alpena High School (the Wildcats) football and hockey.
# Convective mixing

In fluid dynamics, convective mixing is the vertical transport of a fluid and its properties. In many important ocean and atmospheric phenomena, convection is driven by density differences in the fluid, e.g. the sinking of cold, dense water in polar regions of the world's oceans; and the rising of warm, less-dense air during the formation of cumulonimbus clouds and hurricanes.
# The Dean Martin Christmas Album

The Dean Martin Christmas Album is a 1966 studio album by Dean Martin arranged by Ernie Freeman and Bill Justis.

This was the fourth of five albums Martin released in 1966. Billboard magazine reported in its December 3, 1966 issue that The Dean Martin Christmas Album was on top of its "Best Bets for Christmas" chart.
The release of The Dean Martin Christmas Album in October and The Dean Martin TV Show in November 1966 were accompanied by what Billboard described as a "merchandising avalanche" by Reprise Records and their parent company Warner Music. Billboard described Martin as running the "hottest streak of his career", and said that Reprise planned to sell $4 million of his records over the Christmas sales period. Billboard later reported that Martin had sold 850,000 albums in December 1966.
Ricci James Martin, Martin's son, wrote in a biography of his father that The Dean Martin Christmas Album was the only one of his father's albums that was played in the Martin household; his parents seldom listened to Dean Martin's music.
