Shusha uezd

Karabakh Khanate on a map of 1823

The Shusha uezduezd) of the Elizavetpol Governorate of the Russian Empire, and then of the Ganja Governorate of Azerbaijan Democratic Republic with its center in Shusha in 1840–1921.

Geography

The Shusha uezd was located in the southeastern portion of Elizavetpol Governorate, bordering the contiguous Jevanshir uezd on the north, the Jebrail uezd to the south, the Zangezur uezd to the west and the Baku Governorate in the east. The area covered 4,316 square verst, or 4,911 km (3,052 mi). The county was normally divided into the mountainous, submountanous and lowland parts. The mountains covered the southwestern part of the county and were part of the Lesser Caucasus range, reaching as high as 8,988 ft (2,740 m) above sea level. The gorges and valleys towards the northeast made up the submountainous areas of the uezd. The lowland part of the county is rich with rivers. The Khachinchay river formed the natural boundary between the Shusha and the Javanshir uezds.

History

The territories of Shusha uezd once formed part of the Karabakh Khanate until the latter's dissolution in 1813, when the area was ceded by Qajar Iran to the Russian Empire in accordance with the Treaty of Gulistan. Russian rule was officially established in the region by 1823.

On April 10, 1840 Shusha uezd was established as a separate administrative unit within Caspian Oblast of the empire with Shusha as its capital. From 1846 on, it was an administrative unit of Shemakha Governorate (later renamed to the Baku Governorate in 1859). In 1868, the county was incorporated into the Elizavetpol Governorate.uezd were detached and established as separate administrative uezds.


Shusha uezd

After the dissolution of the Russian Empire and the formation of the independent Transcaucasian republics, including the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic in 1918, the western mountainous districts of the Elizavetpol Governorate including the Shusha, Zangezur, Jebrail, Jevanshir, Kazakh and Elizavetpol uezds became subject to intense territorial disputes between Armenia and Azerbaijan throughout 1918-1920, both of whom included these areas in their territorial pretensions that they presented in memorandums to the Paris Peace Conference.

Since the collapse of Russian authority in the Transcaucasus, the mountainous portion of the county which was overwhelmingly Armenian and included the administrative center of Shusha was governed by the de facto Karabakh Council which vehemently rejected Ottoman and Azerbaijani attempts to subordinate the region. However, following the arrival of British forces in Transcaucasia, the Karabakh Council reluctantly submitted to provisional Azerbaijani rule through the Governor-Generalship of Karabakh, led by Dr. Khosrov bey Sultanov, due to the exerted British pressure on the council in August 1919.

Administrative divisions

The subcounties (uchastoks) of the Shusha uezd in 1912 were as follows:

Priest Rapids

Priest Rapids in 1884.

Priest Rapids was a narrow, fast-flowing stretch of the Columbia River, located in the central region of the U.S. state of Washington. It was flooded by the construction of the Priest Rapids Dam in the 1950s.

Before the dam's construction, the river dropped 20 feet (6 m) over a short distance. In total Priest Rapids consisted of seven separate cataracts along a 9-mile (14 km) stretch, over which the river dropped 72 feet (22 m) altogether.

It was given the name Priest Rapids by Alexander Ross of the Pacific Fur Company in 1811, for a native shaman. Ross wrote of his visit to the "strong and rocky rapid" where he met a man "called Haquilaugh, which signifies … priest." Haquilaugh was an influential Wanapum leader, for whom Ross gave the rapids its English name.

At Priest Rapids the Columbia River narrowed and flowed quickly, making it an ideal salmon fishing site. There were several rapids and fishing sites, and a dozen or so Wanapum villages along the west bank of the Columbia River at Priest Rapids.

Priest Rapids Dam, built in the 1950s, submerged Priest Rapids, taking advantage of the river's drop for hydroelectric power production. Thus today there are no rapids at Priest Rapids.

Pocerina

Borders of the Pocerina Region in the Kingdom of Serbia

View on mountain Cer between Pocerina villages of Desić and Radovašnica.

Pocerina is an area in the western part of Serbia, occupying lowland and lowland terrain on the northern side of the Cer mountain. It extends to Macva and Posavina. Pocerina was named after Mount Cer, the northernmost island mountain on the southern edge of the Pannonian Basin. Pocerina is located north of the mountain Cer. The area of Pocerina is 315 km². Two rivers flow through Pocerina: Dumača and Dobrava. Pits and sinkholes (Cerova jaruga on the border of the villages of Slatina and Bojića) appear in the limestone parts of Pocerina.

History

Prehistory

On the locality Šančina in the village Desić the "Serbian Stonehenge", dating back to the Copper Age (circa 4000 - 4300. BC) was discovered. The most significant discovery is the well, in the very center of the roundel, 6.3 m deep. There are theories that it was used for tracking celestial bodies, but also that shamans performed religious rites in this locality.

It is established that Gornja Vranjska, and this entire area, was also inhabited in the Neolithic era; for the Paleolithic and Mesolithic, it could not be proven for sure. First settlements in Gornja Vranjska existed in 3600 BC at Podrumine and Jusupovac.

Tricarpelema africanum

Tricarpelema africanum is a monocotyledonous flowering plant in the family Commelinaceae. It is native to west-central Africa and is typically found growing in shallow soils on inselbergs. The species is the only member of its genus not found in the moist forests of tropical Asia and the only species of the subgenus Keatingia. Tricarpelema africanum's physical separation from its Asian relatives has led it to evolve a number of unique morphological features, most of which are vegetative adaptations to drier conditions.

Kagara Ltd

Kagara Ltd was an Australian mining company operating in Queensland and Western Australia. The company was founded as Kagara Zinc Inc in 1981, and was based in Perth.voluntary administration on 30 April 2012.

Operations

Kagara explored, developed and produced copper, zinc, gold, nickel, and lead concentrates.Mt Garnet zinc project in northern Queensland.Sterlite Industries (India) Ltd.Queensland-based Maitland copper deposit Glengarry Resources Limited.

In May 2009 the company reported that production of nickel from the Lounge Lizard deposit in Australia would start in three months, with an estimate of 3,000 tonnes of contained nickel a year. The deposit may contain over 140,000 tonnes of ore, and is one of Australia's largest high-grade nickel ore mines.

In April 2009 Kagara said it had been approached to spin off its gold mining assets, using the cash to reduce debt.Chinese Guangdong Foreign Trade Group (GFTG) said it would take a 15% stake in Kagara for US$50.7 million.China approved a $23.8 million investment by GFTG in Mungana Goldmines. Kagara would retain a 49% interest in the operation.

In September 2010 Kagara reported positive results from an initial study of a possible Admiral Bay lead-zinc-silver project in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, and said it had plans to explore the project in more detail in a feasibility study.Einasleigh project in Queensland, which is south west of Kagara's copper and polymetallic processing facilities at Mount Garnet and north west of its Thalanga polymetallic processing facility. Einasleigh has copper resources of about 16.1 million tonnes.

In January 2011 Kagara said that the recent flooding in southern Queensland had had little effect on its operations apart from the Thalanga operation, where Vomacka open pit was being developed and the Thalanga Polymetallic processing facility was being commissioned.

However, by 2012 Kagara had been hit hard by the stronger Australian dollar, lower commodity prices and high labour costs. It reported a $48.9 million loss for the first half of the 2012 financial year. In the midst of a restructuring, and a failed attempt to obtain further funding, it entered voluntary administration on 30 April 2012.

Nothin' to Lose (Marcel song)

"Nothin' to Lose" is a song written by Marcel and Kevin Savigar, and recorded by American country music artist Josh Gracin. It was released in August 2004 as the second single from his self-titled CD. The song is Gracin's only number one hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in 2005. It also peaked at number 39 on the Billboard Hot 100, his only Top 40 hit on that chart.

Background

The song was written by Marcel and Kevin Savigar and was included as a track on Marcel's Mercury Records Nashville debut album, You, Me and the Windshield.

Content

The song is set at a fast pace, with a string of rapidly delivered lyrics, through which the narrator explains that he has "nothin' to lose" now that he has found a lover.

Music video

Directed by Trey Fanjoy, the video is set at a high school, following a male student who holds a note addressed to "Ann Marie". The note gets passed to each person that comes in contact with it, making its way to the principal's office, where the student is sitting down at and the titular Ann Marie enters to meet the person who asked for her.

Painting

From 'Mirages, Transformations, Miracles: Marcus Reichert's Paintings' by Donald Kuspit


Marcus Reichert

Figure or object, face or flower, body or vase, Marcus Reichert's images seem to exist somewhere in the limbo between hallucination and perception. In a hallucination, there's no external object to be observed, however much something seems sensed and present; in a perception, there is such an object, experienced as a “hard fact,” indisputably separate from oneself. There are two kinds of hallucination, the French psychiatrist Jules Baillarger tells us, one psychosensorial, involving the combined action of the imagination and some sense organ, the other psychic, entirely a product of the imagination, with no sensory stimulus. Reichert's hallucinations are of the first kind: his eye is stimulated by the perception of some object external to him, which is then imaginatively transformed into a painted image, producing what Baudelaire famously called a “sensation of the new,” the sort of sensation, as he also said, that a child might have when it saw something for the first time, spontaneously and without preconceptions. The resulting lived experience, as some philosophers would call it, or existential encounter, as others call it, seems miraculous—a sort of miraculous revelation, in which the thing intensely lived seems fresh and wonderful, because one has invested one's own freshness and wonder in it. It is this sense of hallucinatory freshness, combined with a sense that the marvelous is always convulsive, as Breton wrote at the end of Nadja, his account of his relations with a madwoman he met, that we experience in Reichert's paintings. Some are colorful and bright—startlingly luminous, for example in Orange Blossoms, 2008, with its dazzling sky-blue field; others somewhat dark and morbid, which many of the vessel paintings are. The vessel contains the “spirits of the dead,” Reichert writes, suggesting that it is an urn, even when it contains flame-like flowers, suggesting that the dead may be powerful genies ready to escape from it, bringing life with them. Death and resurrection seem a subtheme of Reichert's art, adding to their imaginative aura. The imaginative unconscious, which re-conceives one's perceptions according to “the deepest laws of the soul,” to allude to Baudelaire's classical definition, is clearly hyperactive in Reichert's art...


Marcus Reichert

Whether resolved or unresolved, the contradictions that inform Reichert's art give it an absurd vitality. Indeed, there is an air of “immediate absurdity” to Reichert's works, a sign of surreality – the fusion of dream and reality – as Breton said. Sometimes it has a satirical, caricaturing, ridiculing edge, adding to the sense of disharmony said to be characteristic of modern beauty, as distinct from the harmony of traditional beauty. It always involves what modern philosopher-psychologists call absurdism, involving the sense of isolation that comes with the feeling of living in an irrational world in which one must create one's own reason for being. It is a shaky, groundless world in which catastrophe, personal and social, seems imminent – a godless world in which there is no net to catch one after one falls from grace. The sense of gracelessness become peculiarly graceful pervades Reichert's eccentric lines and forms, adding to the feeling of absurdity that informs Reichert's works. But however one might categorize them stylistically and expressively, what strikes me as particularly meaningful is their uncanny abstractness, self-evident in the Mechanics of the Universe, 2012, subtly evident in the figural works, be the figure a naked body, as in the wraith-like Yellow Nude, 2002, or a vessel, which has a body of its own, and is a symbol of the human body at its most intact. The philosopher Alfred North Whitehead said that abstraction is a “process of emphasis, and emphasis vivifies life,” which is certainly what Reichert's art does. More pointedly, he said that it is “a stripping bare…in order to intensify,” and Reichert's paintings are certainly intense. The Jungian psychoanalyst Anthony Storr argues that one tends to get more pithy as one gets older – wisely reflect on essences, rather than continue to futilely suffer—and the Mechanics of the Universe seem particularly pithy, suggesting that Reichert's art has gotten more essentialist and less existentialist as he has aged. Epitomizing the abstract mechanics of the universe he in effect epitomizes himself in the eternal abstract terms to which all too human existence can be reduced...


Marcus Reichert

But I happen to be particularly fond of certain existentially inclined works, perhaps most of all Statues, 2012, a late work which epitomizes the war of the sexes, with a certain frank brutality, and Woman with Green Hair, also 2012, which epitomizes the femme fatale, and echoes Matisse's fauvist Woman with the Hat and Portrait of Mme Matisse/The Green Line, 1905, painted more than a century earlier. Scandalously audacious, the former because it was painted with “seemingly wild abandon,” the latter because of its face, which resembled a “primitive mask,” as art historians have noted, both were among the visually violent – some say barbaric – works that inaugurated modernism. Reichert's paintings show that traumatizing audacity can still make a strong psychoaesthetic point.

Politburo (Manchester band)

Politburo in 2012.

Politburo live at Kraak, Manchester in 2013.

Politburo are a British band from Manchester, England. The band was formed in 1999 by Nick Alexander (vocals), Dominic James (guitar, keyboard), Nikki Clayton (bass) and Al Macdonald (drums).

The original line-up lasted until 2002 following which a series of line-up changes occurred over a number of years. McDonald was replaced by James McMurrugh, shortly followed by Clayton being replaced by Alex Kenyon. Kenyon and McMurrugh both left in late 2003 and Steven Joseph (bass) joined the band soon after with the band now being accompanied by a drum machine.

In 2005 the band became a four-piece again with the addition of Edd Crossman on the drums. This line-up lasted until 2009 when Crossman was replaced by Zak Hayne. Hayne left soon after and James decided to now play the drums instead of the guitar and Alexander was also playing guitar in addition to singing. Latest members Johnny Dreamguns (guitar) joined in 2011 and Phil Meredith (guitar) joined in 2012.

The band have released 3 EPs and 1 album. In their early years, the band was compared to the Dead Kennedys and Joy Division but they adopted their current more-psychedelic sound during the period 2006–2008.

Minister of Democratic Institutions

The Minister of Democratic Institutions (French: Ministre des Institutions démocratiques) was a Minister of the Crown in the Canadian Cabinet, associated with the Privy Council Office. The position was first created in 2003 as "Minister responsible for Democratic Reform". It was also titled "Minister responsible for Democratic Renewal" and "Minister of State (Democratic Reform)" during various governments. The position was abolished on November 20, 2019.

History

Under Martin (2003–2006)

The position was created by Prime Minister Paul Martin when he succeeded Jean Chrétien in December 2003 under the title "Minister responsible for Democratic Reform" to address the "democratic deficit", an issue Martin campaigned on when he ran for leader of the Liberal Party of Canada.

The portfolio was initially held by the Government House Leader, Jacques Saada, in Martin's first cabinet.2004 election, the portfolio was given to Mauril Bélanger, who was the deputy government house leader.

When Belinda Stronach crossed the floor from the Conservative Party to Liberals on May 17, 2005, she assumed responsibilities for the portfolio along with the post of Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development. At this point the title was changed from "Democratic Reform" to "Democratic Renewal".

Under Harper (2006–2015)

Under the premiership of Stephen Harper, the post was first held by his first two House Leaders (Rob Nicholson and Peter Van Loan) as "Leader of the House of Commons and Minister for Democratic Reform". In 2008, the role was taken up by Steven Fletcher as "Minister of State (Democratic Reform)" and the same title was subsequently held by Tim Uppal and Pierre Poilievre.

Under Trudeau (2015–2019)

In the ministry of Justin Trudeau, who was elected on campaign promises of electoral reform, the portfolio was assigned to Maryam Monsef in November 2015, under the new title "Minister of Democratic Institutions".


Minister of Democratic Institutions

In the mandate letter provided to Monsef by Trudeau, she has been instructed to table an action plan outlining proposals to reform the operations of the House of Commons of Canada in order to increase the role of individual Members of Parliament in the House and its committees. Proposals include allowing more free votes, giving committees more authority, increase research budgets, allowing chairs of house committees to be elected rather than appointed by the prime minister, giving MPs a role in choosing which committees they sit on rather than having them assigned by the prime minister or government house leader.Special Committee on Electoral Reform and appeared as its first witness.

Following criticism of her handling of the portfolio, Monsef was named Minister of Status of Women on February 1, 2017 and Karina Gould was appointed in her place. On February 1, 2017, Gould announced that her mandate would no longer include exploring potential changes to the Canadian electoral system.

On November 20, 2019, as part of Trudeau's Cabinet shuffle following the 2019 Canadian federal election, the Democratic Institutions portfolio was abolished. Joan Bryden of the Canadian Press reported that the position's responsibilities would be transferred to Dominic LeBlanc in his role as President of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada.

In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow notes that "This is a logical and very successful collaboration featuring the East Coast tenor Houston Person and L.A.'s legendary Teddy Edwards. Although one can generally tell the two veterans apart (Person has a heavier sound than the comparatively light-toned Edwards), the co-leaders are quite complementary and work together well in the tradition of Sonny Stitt and Gene Ammons ... Edwards and Person pay tribute to eight great tenors of the past (John Coltrane, Ben Webster, Lester Young, Stan Getz, Coleman Hawkins, Gene Ammons, Dexter Gordon, and Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis) through their renditions of eight standards ... Recommended"
