The Cemil Topuzlu Open-Air Theatre (, also called simply Açıkhava Tiyatrosu) is a contemporary amphitheatre located at Harbiye neighborhood of Şişli district in Istanbul, Turkey. It is situated across from the Istanbul Lütfi Kırdar Convention and Exhibition Center, and behind the Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus on the European side of the city.

As the city's most popular summertime outdoor venue, the theatre primarily hosts music concerts in various genres of local and international performers. It also hosts cultural activities for several festivals held in Istanbul in the summer.

History
The construction of the open-air theatre was proposed by French urban planner Henri Prost (1874–1959), who developed a project for Istanbul in the 1930s. Designed by Turkish architects Nihad Yücel and Nahid Uysal, the groundbreaking took place in July 1946, in the office time of Lütfi Kırdar (1887–1961), governor and mayor of Istanbul.

The amphitheatre was opened on August 9, 1947 with a ceremony. However, it took its final form after German stage director Carl Ebert (1887–1980), then head of Ankara State Conservatory, made modifications in the architectural design of the stage area. Remedy of all the deficiencies completed in the 1950s only. The construction cost 900,000 at the end.

The theatre was inaugurated with a play of Sophocles, the Athenian tragedy Oedipus the King, performed by actors of the Ankara State Theatre.

In 1958, the venue was named after Cemil Topuzlu (1866–1958), mayor of Istanbul in the era of Ottoman Second Constitutional Monarchy.

Architecture
The facade is faced with limestone and Uzunköprü stone interchangeably to achieve a tone of color. The tier seating is of Uzunköprü stone also. The outdoor theatre is designed in the form of ancient amphitheatres with tiered seating for spectators, semicircular in shape, around a flat performance space. The theatre's seating capacity is 3,972, and there are additional 30 "loge" seats for VIP. The section for the orchestra can hold 80 musicians. A movie projector is situated in the middle of the auditorium for movie or slide show purposes. The stage is large enough to enable 200-300 background actors freely move. The passages and the gates are dimensioned for instantaneous evacuation of the stage.

By the Fire is the seventh solo album by Thurston Moore.

Moore claimed the album and its release were a political act saying "I put out By the Fire as a political move. Any time you put out a record, a book, a fanzine, a blog, a cassette, a CD, whatever you're doing, that's a political move. You're actually engaging in a social world. I called it By the Fire because of that. [It's] the idea of people sitting around a fire and dialoguing."

Reception

Ron Hart of Spin called the album "his most direct solo outing since his 1995 debut, Psychic Hearts." Stuart Berman of Pitchfork praised the album and said of the almost 90 minutes length of the album "it's a record that justifies and even demands the extra space to explore."

Daniel Sylvester of Exclaim! was less effusive calling the album "boring and tedious" and said of it "much of the material sounds like Sonic Youth, even if the quality isn't there."

Lionel Dyck SCZ, also referred to as Colonel Dyck, is a Zimbabwean mercenary and former soldier. He was born in 1944 in Southern Rhodesia and served with the Rhodesian Army and Zimbabwe Defence Forces before founding Dyck Advisory Group (DAG) to offer protective military services in Africa.

Military career 
Dyck was born in 1944 in Southern Rhodesia. When he was 17, he joined the Rhodesian Army and was placed in the Rhodesian Light Infantry (RLI). However, he was court-martialed and expelled from the army after driving a Unimog whilst drunk, resulting in him killing an RLI soldier. He underwent education in South Africa and gave up drinking. He re-enlisted in the Rhodesian Army during the Rhodesian Bush War. He would later rise to become a major in the Rhodesian African Rifles (RAR). Following the country's transition into Zimbabwe, Dyck played a frontline role commanding the RAR in the 1981 Entumbane uprising.  The RAR were disbanded in 1981 and the majority of white officers had left the new Zimbabwe National Army. Dyck remained and helped with the foundation of Zimbabwe's parachute battalion from former RAR and Selous Scouts soldiers as well as former ZIPRA and ZANLA guerrillas. During this time he forged a close working relationship with the Zimbabwean Minister of Defence (later President) Emmerson Mnangagwa and was awarded the Silver Cross of Zimbabwe. In 1986, he was appointed as a Commissioner of Oaths. He retired from the army in 1990 as a colonel and moved to South Africa. Whilst in South Africa, he would become the commodore of the False Bay Yacht Club.

Mercenary career 
Whilst in South Africa, Dyck founded a demining and anti-poaching company. This business made him wealthy and he branched out into private military contracting, private security and animal conservation. Utilising his contacts with Mnangagwa, in 2008 he set up a company called MineTech where a WikiLeaks cable described them as "business partners". In 2012, he set up Dyck Advisory Group as a mercenary, demining and anti-poaching group. In 2019 and 2020, he was hired by the Government of Mozambique to provide air cover for Mozambique soldiers during the RENAMO insurgency. Dyck and his forces were credited with driving RENAMO out of Northern Mozambique. In 2021, he was hired by the Mozambique police to provide military assistance against Islamic terrorists in the Battle of Palma aged 77. Dyck's DAG had been accused by Amnesty International of firing into random crowds; however, Dyck responded by stating that armed insurgents running into crowds was a common tactic used by terrorists. Dyck also helped to co-ordinate the evacuation of civilians from the area.

The Hotel Sacher Salzburg, Austria, is Salzburg's only grand hotel, a 5 star deluxe hotel. The house is built in the style of the turn of the century, located on the shore of the Salzach river, and offers a view of the Altstadt. The hotel is located a few minutes away from the theatres of the Salzburg Festival.

History 
The hotel was built between 1863 and 1866 by the hotelier and master builder Carl Freiherr von Schwarz as an Oesterreichischer Hof (Austrian Court) hotel - and it operated under the name "Österreichischer Hof" until 2000. It enjoyed popularity from the opening of the hotel in 1866 due to its position with members of ruling houses, noblemen, high clergymen and artist as guests in the first year.

With the beginning of the Salzburg Festival, the "Austrian court" became the social centre of the festival with the three stars, Max Reinhardt, Hugo von Hofmannsthal and Richard Strauss, and the artists playing a part, living next door in the hotel to the heads of the European and overseas society.

In  1988, the Gürtler family purchased the hotel. All of its rooms and restaurants were redesigned, the interior was adapted to its historical style, and its rooms and suites were equipped with rare art treasures.

Alexander Taylor (May 17, 1853 – February 12, 1916) was a Canadian entrepreneur, inventor and politician. He is credited as being one of the founders of the city of Edmonton. Taylor was born in on May 17, 1853, in Ottawa, Ontario, and came to Edmonton in 1877. Shortly after his arrival in Edmonton, Taylor established the first telegraph, telephone, and electricity systems. Taylor asked the Bell Telephone Company to provide services in 1883. Alex Taylor, Dominion Telegraph Agent, brought the first two telephones made of Spanish mahogany, and asked store owner Henry William McKenney of St. Albert to keep the device in St. Albert. Taylor, who, at the time was working for the Dominion Telegraph and Signal Service proposed running a telephone line from his office to St. Albert, Alberta.  January 3, 1885, the two tested the line, the first successful call in Northern Alberta. He founded Edmonton's first telephone company and made Edmonton's first telephone call. In 1892, Taylor installed a switchboard and Jennie Lauder became Edmonton's first telephone operator overseeing a system of 14 telephones. In 1893, the Edmonton District Telephone Company  was granted a charter and less than a decade later it was operational 24 hours a day and provided service to nearby rural areas.

In 1891, Taylor co-founded Edmonton's first electric company, the Edmonton Electric Lighting and Power Company. Taylor also co-founded Edmonton's first newspaper, the Edmonton Bulletin with Frank Oliver in 1880. Taylor also served on the Edmonton Public School Board from 1899 to 1909, and was the chairman of the board in 1907.

In 1904, ill health prompted Taylor to sell his telephone company to the City of Edmonton for $17,000, which later became known as Edmonton Telephones. Taylor died on February 12, 1916. He is buried in the Edmonton Cemetery.

Argyra () was a town or village in ancient Achaea, in the neighbourhood of Patrae. It was located near the river Selemnus, the spring Argyra and the town of Bolina. Pausanias says it was on the road from Patrae to Aegium, following the Caradrus river. Pausanias relates a local legend that Argyra was a sea-nymph, who fell in love with a shepherd named Selemnus and used to come up out of the sea to visit him, sleeping by his side, but when Selemnus lost its beauty, the nymph stopped visiting him and Selemnus died of a broken heart. Then, Aphrodite transformed Selemnus into a river. In the war between the Achaeans and the Romans Patrae suffered so severely, that the greater part of the inhabitants abandoned the city and took up their abodes in the surrounding villages of Mesatis, Antheia, Bolina, Argyra, and Arba. A long time later, the Emperor Augustus forced the inhabitants of these places to abandon them to repopulate the city of Patrae. In the time of Pausanias (2nd century) the town was in ruins.

Its site is unlocated. The modern village of Argyra takes its name from the ancient place.
