# Joseph Schalk

Joseph Schalk (24 March 1857 – 7 November 1900) was an Austrian conductor, musicologist and pianist. His name is often given as Josef Schalk.
Schalk was born in Vienna, Austria, and together with younger brother Franz, was a student of composer Anton Bruckner (1824–1896), and a friend of composer Hugo Wolf (1860–1903). He was a prominent figure in Viennese musical life of the late nineteenth-century, a vocal advocate for the music of Wagner, Bruckner and Wolf: in this capacity he was opposed to the more conservative supporters of Brahms who were led by the critic Eduard Hanslick. As president of the Vienna Wagner Society, Schalk was active in arranging performances of Bruckner's work: he also popularized his teacher's music by arranging it for piano performance, writing articles and arranging for its publication. He played a comparable role in popularizing Wolf's music. Bruckner is said to have referred to him as Herr Generalissimus.
Schalk was involved in the preparation of several of Bruckner's scores for their first publication or performance: these include the Third and Eighth symphonies, along with the Mass in F Minor.
Schalk wrote a series of articles under the collective title Das Gesetz der Tonalität (the law of tonality) which laid down his theory of harmony, based on his teaching from Bruckner.
He was later a professor at the Vienna Conservatory. Upon Bruckner's death, Schalk was named administrator of his library of music scores.

# Carolyn Farina

Carolyn Farina (born 1973 or 1974) is an American actress best known for her starring role as Audrey Rouget in the 1990 Whit Stillman film Metropolitan.

## Career

Farina was born and raised in Bayside, Queens, New York. Her father left the family very early. A shy child, she began acting classes in grade school. After high school, she had jobs as a waitress, secretary, and receptionist. She spent one semester at Queens College, and also studied acting at a variety of venues including the Lee Strasberg Institute.
She had no professional acting experience or agent when she auditioned for, and was cast as the lead in, Whit Stillman's 1990 independent film Metropolitan. Her performance received very favorable reviews, which noted her sensitivity and perceptiveness.
Apart from a brief non-speaking cameo reprisal of her character Audrey Rouget in Stillman's follow-up film The Last Days of Disco (1998), during the 1990s following her starring role in Metropolitan, Farina received only small roles in two more films. These were a non-speaking role in Little Noises (1992), which was directed by Jane Spencer, and a small role as the protagonist's sister in The Age of Innocence (1993), which was directed by Martin Scorsese.
She returned to college after this period and earned a master's degree in psychology, and made a new career working as a child psychologist.
In 2011 she appeared briefly in Whit Stillman's Damsels in Distress, playing a waitress in a diner. In 2023, she appeared in the film A View of the World from Fifth Avenue, which premiered at the Bentonville Film Festival before being released to video on demand.

# Zhang Lexing

Zhang Lexing (Chinese: 張樂行; Wade–Giles: Chang Lo-hsing, 1810 – 1863) was a Chinese guerrilla leader during the Nian Rebellion in China.
Zhang was originally a landlord and a member of a powerful lineage involved in salt-smuggling. In 1852 he was chosen to lead the Nian, and in 1856 was bestowed with the title "Lord of the Alliance" when the Nian organised themselves under a banner system inspired by the Eight Banners of the ruling Qing Dynasty. Zhang also at this time claimed the title of "Great Han Prince with the Mandate of Heaven". He later joined forces with the Taiping Rebellion and became the "Commander of the Northern Expedition".
In 1863 he was defeated and captured along with his son and adopted son by Mongol cavalry general Sengge Rinchen. Prior to being executed, he confessed that he could no longer remember how many places he had plundered; he also claimed to not know the whereabouts of his wife, who had been chased off by government troops, or his brother Zhang Minxing, who had left for the southwest along with several thousand men, and that other Nian leaders had already been killed.
Despite the apparent loss of leadership, the Nian rebellion would continue for another five years. Zhang's nephew Zhang Zongyu succeeded him in command of the Nian armies, with Sengge Richen being killed in a Nian ambush only two years after Zhang's death.

# Hurley Historic District

The Hurley Historic District encompasses the center of the hamlet of Hurley, the main settlement area of the town of Hurley, New York. Stretched along US 209, the hamlet includes one of the finest concentrations of colonial Dutch architecture in the United States. Settled by the Dutch in the 17th century, its architecture has retained the influence of that period. The village is also historically significant as a temporary home of the seat of New York government during the American Revolutionary War. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1961.

## Description and history

Hurley is a small town located on the edge of the Catskill Mountains west of Kingston in the Hudson River Valley. Its main village lines both sides of US 209, which bisects the community, and extends along Wynkoop Road, Main Street and Hurley Mountain Road at the boundary of the Catskill Park. The village includes a collection of stone and frame structures, many dating from the 18th century. Ten of these are good examples of Dutch Colonial architecture, while the other buildings contribute to its ambience as an 18th-century village. Included in the historic district are the town cemetery, where its early settlers are buried, and the surrounding farmland.
Originally settled by the Dutch and called Nieuw Dorp ("New Village"), it came under English control soon thereafter although its inhabitants continued to speak Dutch and preserve other aspects of that culture for at least another century. Hurley is also historically important for its role in the American Revolutionary War. The newly formed New York state government moved here for two months in late 1777 while Kingston was being rebuilt. The British Army had burned it in retaliation for the creation of the state there (Albany, New York's traditional capital, was under threat of attack by a large army led by General John Burgoyne). It is thus the second of the state's three capital cities.
