# David Lvovich

David Lvovich (1882-1950), known by the pseudonym Davidovich, was a Russian-Jewish politician. Lvovich was one of the main leaders of the Zionist Socialist Workers Party (SS).
He was born in southern Russia. Lvovich's involvement in radical politics began in 1903, as after a visit to Minsk where he acquinted the Poalei Zion movement. He visited Palestine in 1905, and following this visit he embraced territorialism. He became a member of the SS Odessa Party Committee and led the SS Self-Defense Unit during the October 1905 pogrom.
In 1907 Lvovich represented SS at the congress of the Second International in Stuttgart. In 1908 he and other SS leaders settled in Vienna, where they formed a commune of sorts (nick-named 'the hunger commune' due to their limited resources).
Lvovich stayed in the United States during the First World War, but returned to Russia to contest the 1917 Russian Constituent Assembly election. Lvovich, now a leader of the United Jewish Socialist Workers Party (Fareynikte), was elected as a deputy from the Kherson constituency as a candidate on the Socialist-Revolutionary list.
Moving away from partisan politics, Lvovich opted for concentrating his energies to build the ORT movement in Russia. In 1919 he left Russia and together with Leon Bramson he sought to build the ORT movement internationally. Lvovich moved to Berlin in 1921. In 1921 he co-founded the World ORT. In 1932 he moved to Paris where he stayed until 1939, after which he emigrated to the United States. In 1937 he became the Vice Chairman of World ORT, in 1946 becoming its co-president.

# Kepler-62b

Kepler-62b (also known by its Kepler Object of Interest designation KOI-701.02) is the innermost and the second smallest discovered exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-62, with a diameter roughly 30% larger than Earth. It was found using the transit method, in which the dimming effect that a planet causes as it crosses in front of its star is measured. It is likely to have an equilibrium temperature slightly higher than the surface temperature of Venus (around 750 K (477 °C; 890 °F)), high enough to melt some types of metal. Its stellar flux is 70 ± 9 times Earth's.

## Physical characteristics
### Mass, radius and temperature

Kepler-62b is a super-Earth, an exoplanet with a radius and mass bigger than Earth but smaller than that of the ice giants Neptune and Uranus. It has an equilibrium temperature of 750 K (477 °C; 890 °F). This is hot enough to melt some types of metal. It has a radius of 1.3 R$_🜨$, placing it below the estimated radius of ≤1.6 R$_🜨$ where it would otherwise be a mini-Neptune with a volatile composition, with no solid surface. However, the mass is currently not known, estimates place an upper limit of <9 M$_E$, the actual mass is expected to be significantly lower than this.

### Host star

The planet orbits a (K-type) star named Kepler-62, orbited by a total of five planets, of which Kepler-62f has the lengthiest orbital period. The star has a mass of 0.69 M$_☉$ and a radius of 0.64 R$_☉$. It has a temperature of 4925 K and is 7 billion years old. In comparison, the Sun is 4.6 billion years old and has a surface temperature of 5778 K.
The star's apparent magnitude, or how bright it appears from Earth's perspective, is 13.65. Therefore, it is too dim to be seen with the naked eye.

### Orbit

Kepler-62b orbits its host star with an orbital period of 5 days at a distance of about 0.05 AU (compared to the same distance as Mercury from the Sun, which is about 0.38 AU). It receives 70 times as much sunlight than Earth does from the Sun.

## Discovery

In 2009, NASA's Kepler spacecraft was completing observing stars on its photometer, the instrument it uses to detect transit events, in which a planet crosses in front of and dims its host star for a brief and roughly regular period of time. In this last test, Kepler observed 50000 stars in the Kepler Input Catalog, including Kepler-62; the preliminary light curves were sent to the Kepler science team for analysis, who chose obvious planetary companions from the bunch for follow-up at observatories. Observations for the potential exoplanet candidates took place between 13 May 2009 and 17 March 2012. After observing the respective transits, which for Kepler-62b occurred roughly every 5 days (its orbital period), it was eventually concluded that a planetary body was responsible for the periodic 5-day transits. The discovery, along with the planetary system of the star Kepler-69 were announced on April 18, 2013.

# David Weeks (politician)

David Weeks (died 2 November 2021) was a former Conservative Leader of Westminster City Council who served on the council from 1974 to 1998.

## Career

He was leader of the council from 1991 to 1993, deputy leader from 1983 to 1991, and acting leader during 1987 to 1988. He chaired several of the council's major committees: Policy and Resources from 1991 to 1993; Planning and Development, 1987 to 1991; Finance and Personnel, 1983 to 1987; and Housing, 1979 to 1983. From 1977 to 1979 he was the chief whip of the council's ruling Conservative group.
He was Leader of the Council at the time it agreed to buy back the Westminster Cemeteries after they were sold without proper provision for maintenance - a decision made by Shirley Porter to which David was not a party.

## Homes for Votes scandal

Weeks was deputy leader to Shirley Porter at the time of the "Homes for votes scandal" and was found jointly liable along with Porter and others to the tune of £36 million by the District Auditor, but this was reduced on appeal by the High Court. In a 2001 judgement, Lord Bingham of Cornhill, described Dame Shirley and David Weeks, as guilty of a "...deliberate, blatant and dishonest misuse of public power. It was a misuse of power by both of them not for the purpose of financial gain but for that of electoral advantage. In that sense it was corrupt." Lord Scott said:
   The corruption was not money corruption. No one took a bribe. No one sought or received money for political favours. But there are other forms of corruption, often less easily detectable and therefore more insidious. Gerrymandering, the manipulation of constituency boundaries for party political advantage, is a clear form of political corruption.

## Personal life

David died on 2 November 2021, after fifty years of marriage leaving his widow Heather. He was not buried in a Westminster cemetery.
