# Davidov Stradivarius

The Davidov Stradivarius (also: Davidoff or Davydov; Russian: Давыдов) is an antique cello made in 1712 by luthier Antonio Stradivari of Cremona, Italy. It is very similar in construction and form to the equally famed Duport Stradivarius, built a year earlier and played by Mstislav Rostropovich until his death in 2007. The varnish is of a rich orange-red hue, produced with oil color glazes. Its owners have included Karl Davydov and Jacqueline du Pré, and it is currently used by cellist Yo-Yo Ma.

## Nomenclature

In 1870, the Davidov Stradivarius was given to the eponymous Karl Davydov (1838–1889) by patron Count Matvei Wielhorski (1794–1866) at the court of Tsar Alexander II. Davydov was a Russian cellist of great renown at the time, described as the "czar of cellists" by Tchaikovsky, though far less successful as a composer. The cello body has a few marks and scratches due to mishandling from this period.

## History

The cello was sold in Paris in 1888. In 1928 it was purchased by Herbert N. Straus, an American business executive. When he died, his widow asked New York City musical instrument dealer Rembert Wurlitzer to sell the instrument for her. In 1964, the Davydov cello was purchased for US$90,000 by Ismena Holland who in turn presented the instrument to her goddaughter, the English cellist Jacqueline du Pré. Upon receiving the Davydov, Du Pre's instructor, William Pleeth, declared it as "one of the really great instruments of the world". Practically all of du Pré's recordings from 1968 to 1970 were made on this instrument. By 1970, du Pré began using a different cello (made for her by Sergio Peresson and purchased by her husband Daniel Barenboim), as she was bothered by the Davidov's "unpredictability." Yo-Yo Ma later commented, "Jackie's unbridled dark qualities went against the Davydov. You have to coax the instrument. The more you attack it, the less it returns". The Peresson was her primary instrument for the remainder of her career.
Upon her death in 1987, the Davidov, owned by Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, was made available for use by Yo-Yo Ma. He has since performed and recorded with the instrument in Baroque music, specifically, the Simply Baroque and Simply Baroque II recordings. It was modified especially for the task of creating a more authentic sound for that era. The Davidov has subsequently been reconfigured for modern music.
# John Kuck

John Henry Kuck (April 27, 1905 – September 21, 1986) was an American athlete who won a gold medal in the shot put at the 1928 Summer Olympics setting a new world record at 15.87 m. Earlier that year he set two more world records, but they were not recognized officially. In 1926 he also set a US record in the javelin throw at 65.28 m and won the AAU title.
Competing for the Emporia State Hornets track and field team, Kuck won an NCAA shot put title.
# Aminullah Khan

Aminullah Khan (born ca. 1867) was an Afghan politician who served as Minister of Justice from 1935 to 1945. A prominent figure from the Jabbarkhel Ghilzai tribe of Laghman, he was the son of Mazullah Khan and the nephew of General Taj Muhammad Khan, a leading supporter of Sardar Ayyub Khan, a notable Afghan military leader. Aminullah Khan came from an influential family, with his father and great-uncle, Wazir Arsala Khan, being recognized as powerful Khans among the Jabbarkhel tribe.

## Life

Born in the late 1860s, Aminullah Khan spent part of his early life as a refugee in Lahore, likely due to the turbulent political environment in Afghanistan during that period. After a number of years, he returned to Afghanistan in 1913, re-engaging with Afghan politics and society. In 1920, he was appointed to lead the Muhajirin (refugees), which marked the beginning of his significant political roles.
Aminullah Khan's influence continued to grow, and he was appointed as the President of the Court of Arbitration in 1923, a position which demonstrated his legal and administrative expertise. In 1924, he became the Governor of the Southern Province, where he managed regional affairs, demonstrating his leadership and governance skills. Later, in 1935, he served as the Minister of Justice, further consolidating his status as a key figure in Afghanistan's political landscape.
Throughout his life, Aminullah Khan was regarded as a respected leader among the Jabbarkhel Ghilzai and played an important role in the governance of Afghanistan during the early 20th century. His career spanned various important roles in the Afghan state, and he is remembered for his contributions to Afghan politics and justice.
# Thomas Campbell Eyton

Thomas Campbell Eyton JP, DL (10 September 1809 – 25 October 1880) was an English naturalist whose fields were cattle, fishes and birds. He was a friend and correspondent of Charles Darwin though he opposed his theories.
Eyton was born at Eyton Hall, near Wellington, Shropshire. He studied at St John's College, Cambridge, where he was a contemporary and friend of Charles Darwin.
After succeeding to the estate in 1855, Eyton built a large natural history museum at Eyton Hall that included a range of bird skins and skeletons, described as "one of the finest in Europe". Besides Darwin, Eyton enjoyed some correspondence with other naturalists including Louis Agassiz, Asa Gray, and Alfred Russel Wallace.
Eyton published History of the Rarer British Birds (1836), A Monograph on the Anatidae, Or Duck Tribe (1838), A History of Oyster and Oyster Fisheries (1858) and Osteologia Avium (1871–78). He established in about 1842 the Herd Book of Hereford Cattle, which he edited until 1860
Eyton was married in 1835 to Elizabeth Frances Slaney, the eldest daughter and co-heiress of Robert Aglionby Slaney MP. She pre-deceased him by ten years.
He was a justice of the peace (JP) and a deputy lieutenant of Shropshire. He served in the South Salopian Yeomanry Cavalry, entering as cornet in 1830, and promoted lieutenant in 1838. He also played county level cricket for Shropshire between 1844 and 1854.
Eyton's daughter, Charlotte Eyton was an amateur geologist, who wrote on the geology of the Wrekin.

## Archives

# Chakara

A chakara (also Chaakara and in Malayalam ചാകര) is a natural marine phenomenon observed along the Malabar Coast of India, particularly in Kerala, where an extraordinary abundance of fish is brought close to the shore, sometimes even being washed ashore. The etymology of chakara relates to Malayalam words "Chaavu" and "Kara" meaning die on the shore, symbolising the huge stock of fish that piles up on the coast during these rare events.
Chakara typically occurs during the southwest monsoon season when upwelling—caused by wind-driven movements of the ocean—brings nutrient-rich water from the ocean depths to the surface. These nutrients promote plankton blooms, creating an abundant food source for fish, leading to their congregation in large numbers near the shore. The phenomenon is more pronounced near areas with unique underwater topography that enhances upwelling, such as the Kerala coast.
Locations of this rare occurrence are Purakkad in Alappuzha district and Kodungallur in Thrissur District in Kerala. A similar phenomenon is also observed in some coastal regions in South America.

## Cultural and Economic Significance

For the coastal communities, Chakara is a period of economic prosperity. The sudden fish catch provides them with unexpected wealth, allowing fishermen to reap significant economic benefits in a short span. The event has also found its way into local folklore and traditions, symbolising nature’s generosity.
Anthropogenic activities like overfishing and coastal development could impact its frequency and scale. Maintaining the health of coastal ecosystems is vital to ensure the sustainability of this phenomenon.
# Zhang Jian (businessman)

Zhang Jian (Chinese: 張謇; 1 July 1853– 24 August 1926), courtesy name Jizhi (季直), art name Se'an (啬庵), was a Chinese entrepreneur, politician and educator. He is known as a "new gentry" and official-entrepreneur.

## Biography

Zhang was born in Haimen county, Jiangsu province in 1853. He initially served as a staff member under the general Wu Changqing. After Wu's death, he returned to his hometown where he studied agriculture while preparing for further examinations. In 1894, he achieved the highest score in the Palace Examination, earning the prestigious title of zhuangyuan. Subsequently, he served at the Hanlin Academy.
Zhang was obliged to return to his hometown for mourning his father in the same year. After the First Sino-Japanese War, he ventured into investing in and establishing modern enterprises. He later founded Dah Sun Cotton Mill in Nantong, financed by both the imperial court and local merchants. Additionally, he diversified into land reclamation, river conservancy, and modern education, especially in the northern Jiangsu. It is generally accepted that Zhang is a successful entrepreneur, however, some financial improprieties led Dah Sun to an insolvent liquidation in the 1920s.
Zhang proclaimed that "the victory of Japan and the defeat of Russia are the victory of constitutionalism and the defeat of monarchism". In 1909, he was elected the chairman of Jiangsu provincial assembly. He refused the membership of the Friends of the Constitution, and acted as a buffer against the active constitutionalists. But in the end of 1911, his thought swung in the republican's favour. Then he drafted the original Edict of Abdication for Puyi. He was appointed as the Minister of Enterprise of the temporary government of the Provisional Government in Nanjing, but did not take the office actually. In 1913, Zhang became the Minister of Industry and Commerce and Minister of Agriculture and Forestry in Beiyang Government.

## Achievements

Zhang was among the pioneers of the Chinese modernization. Aside from companies and factories, he also founded the first normal school in modern China, Tongzhou Normal College in 1902 and established Nantong Museum, the first museum in Mainland China in 1905. He remoulded the infrastructure of Nantong and made it became a template for earlier urban development in China.
The institutes founded or funded by Zhang Jian:
* Nantong University (1902)
* Fudan University (1905)
* Nantong Middle School of Jiangsu Province (1909)
* Shanghai Ocean University (1912)
* Hohai University (1915)

## Legacy

In his statements that private companies must serve the state, Xi Jinping cites Zhang as an example of a patriotic entrepreneur whose example should be followed.$^{:2}$

# Astronomy and Computing

Astronomy and Computing is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research on applications computer science in astronomy published by Elsevier. It was established in 2013 and is abstracted and indexed in the Astrophysics Data System, INSPEC and Scopus. The current editor-in-chief is Fabio Pasian (Astronomical Observatory of Trieste).

## History

The importance of astronomical software to generating research results has grown, and indeed, much of modern research depends on software. Though occasionally discussed casually, the idea for a journal devoted to computational methods in astronomy was formally discussed at the Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems (ADASS) XX conference in a Birds of a Feather session in 2010, where it was demonstrated that the major astronomy publications are often reluctant to include purely computational articles, though other journals may be more accepting. The publication of computational methods is seen as an important step to bring those who write research software into the academic credit production system.
The development of Astronomy & Computing was presented in 2012 in a poster session at the Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems (ADASS) XXII conference, and the journal's first issue was published in February, 2013.
