The Apalachin Meeting (1957)

The Apalachin Meeting was a summit of some 100 Mafiosi from the US, Canada, and Italy that was raided after their fancy cars and out-of-state license plates aroused the suspicions of law enforcement agents in Apalachin, New York. Fifty-eight Mafiosi, including bosses Carlo Gambino and Vito Genovese, were detained. Perhaps the most significant consequence of the raid was that it confirmed the American Mafia's existence, a fact that had long been denied by what prominent law enforcement official? Discuss

Aaron Copland (1900)

Famously public-spirited and generous, Copland came to be unofficially regarded as the US's national composer. Although his earliest works show European influences, the American character of the greater part of his compositions is evident in his use of jazz and American folk tunes. He is best known for his three ballets based on American folk material: Billy the Kid, Rodeo, and Appalachian Spring, for which he won the Pulitzer Prize. For what films did Copland compose music?

No leader can fix Nigeria with 1999 constitution – Anyaoku

Former Commonwealth Secretary-General, Chief Emeka Anyaoku, on Wednesday, warned that if Nigeria refused to do away with the 1999 Constitution, it would be hard for anyone to fix the country. He described Nigeria as a pluralistic country that needed to address its diversity with true federal constitutions. “To those who think that the trouble with

US court overturns 1983 Beirut bombing victims' $1.68B judgment against Iran bank

new york — A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday threw out a $1.68 billion judgment against Iran's central bank that had been won by family members of troops killed and injured in the 1983 bombing of the U.S. Marine Corps barracks in Beirut.  The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said a lower court judge should have addressed questions of state law before ruling against Bank Markazi and Luxembourg intermediary Clearstream Banking, a unit of Deutsche Boerse.  In a 3-0 decision, the panel also rejected a claim that a 2019 federal law designed to make it easier to seize Iranian assets held outside the United States waived Bank Markazi's sovereign immunity.  That law "neither abrogates Bank Markazi's jurisdictional immunity nor provides an independent grant of subject matter jurisdiction," Circuit Judge Robert Sack wrote.    The court returned the case to U.S. District Loretta Preska, in Manhattan to address state law questions in the 11-year-old case, and whether the case can proceed in Bank Markazi's absence.  Bombing victims sought to hold Iran liable for providing material support for the October 23, 1983, suicide attack that killed 241 U.S. service members, by seizing bond proceeds held by Clearstream in a blocked account on Bank Markazi's behalf.  Bank Markazi claimed immunity under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, which generally shields foreign governments from liability in U.S. courts.  Lawyers for the plaintiffs did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Bank Markazi's and Clearstream's lawyers did not immediately respond to similar requests.  Iran, other U.S.-designated sponsors of terrorism, and banks accused of providing services to terrorists face thousands of claims in U.S. courts by victims and their families. It is often difficult for these claimants to collect judgments.  In the Bank Markazi case, the plaintiffs sued in 2013 to partially satisfy a $2.65 billion default judgment they had won against Iran in 2007.  Another judge dismissed the case in 2015, but the 2nd Circuit Court revived it in 2017.  Then in 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court ordered a fresh review in light of the 2019 law, which then-President Donald Trump signed as part of the National Defense Authorization Act.  The plaintiffs have said they hold more than $4 billion of judgments against Iran and have been unable to collect for decades.  The case is Peterson et al v. Bank Markazi et al, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 15-690.

Greece declassifies intelligence records on 1974 Cyprus crisis

Greece’s intelligence service on Wednesday declassified 58 intelligence reports connected to the Greek-led coup in Cyprus in 1974 and the subsequent Turkish invasion, giving an inside account of the historic events for the first time. The redacted documents shed light on the Greek perspective between July and August 1974 and have been released with the […]

Greece releases documents about 1974 Cyprus crisis

ATHENS: Greece’s state intelligence agency on Wednesday said it had declassified a set of archival documents for the first time in its history, covering the period of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974.

Turkiye invaded the island of Cyprus in 1974 in response to a coup against the government led by a military dictatorship in Athens. Cyprus has since been divided between the Greek-speaking UN-recognised republic in the south and the Turkish Cypriot north, which unilaterally declared independence in 1983.

Evanthis Hatzivassiliou, a professor of postwar history at the National University of Athens, in a statement said the archives cover the period of the invasion from July to August 1974.

One conclusion that can be drawn from the documents is that the intelligence agency EYP was “not informed” of the attempted coup organised by the Greek dictatorship against Archbishop Makarios, the president of Cyprus, Hatzivassiliou said. “The (dictatorship) … informed only those absolutely necessary,” he said.

After the coup, the agency was “quite accurate” in describing Turkish preparations for war, but the warnings were ignored in Athens, he said.

The failure to defend Cyprus led to the fall of the Greek dictatorship in July 1974. A second Turkish invasion followed weeks later in August.

EYP director-general Themistoklis Demiris on Wednesday said that the agency would go on to declassify additional documents referring to “dark” periods of Greek history, without elaborating.

The First Virtual Meeting Was in 1916



At 8:30 p.m. on 16 May 1916, John J. Carty banged his gavel at the Engineering Societies Building in New York City to call to order a meeting of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. This was no ordinary gathering. The AIEE had decided to conduct a live national meeting connecting more than 5,000 attendees in eight cities across four time zones. More than a century before Zoom made virtual meetings a pedestrian experience, telephone lines linked auditoriums from coast to coast. AIEE members and guests in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Denver, New York, Philadelphia, Salt Lake City, and San Francisco had telephone receivers at their seats so they could listen in.

The AIEE, a predecessor to the IEEE, orchestrated this event to commemorate recent achievements in communications, transportation, light, and power. The meeting was a triumph of engineering, covered in newspapers in many of the host cities. The Atlanta Constitution heralded it as “a feat never before accomplished in the history of the world.” According to the Philadelphia Evening Ledger, the telephone connections involved traversed about 6,500 kilometers (about 4,000 miles) across 20 states, held up by more than 150,000 poles running through 5,000 switches. It’s worth noting that the first transcontinental phone call had been achieved only a year earlier.

Carty, president of the AIEE, led the meeting from New York, while section chairmen directed the proceedings in the other cities. First up: roll call. Each city read off the number of members and guests in attendance—from 40 in Denver, the newest section of the institute, to 1,100 at AIEE headquarters in New York. In all, more than 5,100 members attended.

Due to limited seating in New York and Philadelphia, members were allowed only a single admission ticket, and ladies were explicitly not invited. (Boo.) In Atlanta, Boston, and Chicago, members received two tickets each, and in San Francisco members received three; women were allowed to attend in all of these cities. (The AIEE didn’t admit its first woman until 1922, and only as an associate member; Edith Clarke was the first woman to publish a paper in an AIEE journal, in 1926.)

These six cities were the only ones officially participating in the meeting. But because the telephone lines ran directly through both Denver and Salt Lake City, AIEE sections in those cities opted to listen in, although they were kept muted; during the meeting, they sent telegrams to headquarters with their attendance and greetings. In a modern-day Zoom call, these notes would have been posted in the chat.

The first virtual meeting had breakout sessions

Once everyone had checked in and confirmed that they all could hear, Carty read a telegram from U.S. President Woodrow Wilson, congratulating the members on this unique meeting: “a most interesting evidence of the inventive genius and engineering ability represented by the Institute.”

Alexander Graham Bell then gave a few words in greeting and remarked that he was glad to see how far the telephone had gone beyond his initial idea. Theodore Vail, first president of AT&T and one of the men who was instrumental in establishing telephone service as a public utility, offered his own congratulations. Charles Le Maistre, a British engineer who happened to be in New York to attend the AIEE Standards Committee, spoke on behalf of his country’s engineering societies. Finally, Thomas Watson, who as Bell’s assistant was the first person to hear words spoken over a telephone, welcomed all of the electrical engineers scattered across the country.

At precisely 9:00 p.m., the telephone portion of the meeting was suspended for 30 minutes so that each city could have its own local address by an invited guest. Let’s call them breakout sessions. These speakers reflected on the work and accomplishments of engineers. Overall, they conveyed an unrelentingly positive attitude toward engineering progress, with a few nuances.

In Boston, Lawrence Lowell, president of Harvard University, said the discovery and harnessing of electricity was the greatest single advancement in human history. However, he admonished engineers for failing to foresee the subordination of the individual to the factory system.

In Philadelphia, Edgar Smith, provost of the University of Pennsylvania, noted that World War I was limiting the availability of certain materials and supplies, and he urged more investment in developing the United States’ natural resources.

Charles Ferris, dean of engineering at the University of Tennessee, praised the development of long-distance power distribution and the positive effects it had on rural life, but worried about the use of fossil fuels. His chief concern was running out of coal, gas, and oil, not their negative impacts on the environment.

More than a century before Zoom made virtual meetings a pedestrian experience, telephone lines linked auditoriums from coast to coast for the AIEE’s national meeting.

On the West Coast, Ray Wilbur, president of Stanford, argued for the value of dissatisfaction, struggle, and unrest on campus as spurs to growth and innovation. I suspect many university presidents then and now would disagree, but student protests remain a force for change.

After the city breakout sessions, everyone reconnected by telephone, and the host cities took turns calling out their greetings, along with some engineering boasts.

“Atlanta, located in the Piedmont section of the southern Appalachians, among their racing rivers and roaring falls, whose energy has been dragged forth and laid at her doors through high-tension transmission and in whose phenomenal development no factor has been more potent than the electrical engineers, sends greetings.”

“Boston sends warmest greetings to her sister cities. The telephone was born here and here it first spoke, but its sound has gone out into all lands and its words unto the ends of the world.”

“San Francisco hails its fellow members of the Institute…. California has by the pioneer spirit of domination created needs which the world has followed—the snow-crowned Sierras opened up the path of gold to the path of energy, which tonight makes it possible for us on the western rim of the continent of peace to be in instant touch with men who have harnessed rivers, bridled precipices, drawn from the ether that silent and unseen energy that has leveled distance and created force to move the world along lines of greater civilization by closer contacts.”

That last sentence, my editor notes, is 86 words long, but we included it for its sheer exuberance.

Maybe all tech meetings should have musical interludes

The meeting then paused for a musical interlude. I find this idea delightfully weird, like the ballet dream sequence in the middle of the Broadway musical Oklahoma! Each city played a song of their choosing on a phonograph, to be transmitted through the telephone. From the south came strains of “Dixie,” countered by “Yankee Doodle” in New England. New York and San Francisco opted for two variations on the patriotic symbolism of Columbia: “Hail Columbia” and “Columbia the Gem of the Ocean,” respectively. Philadelphia offered up the “Star-Spangled Banner,” and although it wasn’t yet the national anthem, audience members in all auditoriums stood up while it played.

For the record, the AIEE in those days took entertainment very seriously. Almost all of their conferences included a formal dinner dance, less-formal smokers, sporting competitions, and inspection field trips to local sites of engineering interest. There were even women’s committees to organize events specifically for the ladies.

I suspect no one in attendance would have predicted that in the 21st century, people groan at the thought of another virtual meeting.

After the music, Michael Pupin delivered an address on “The Engineering Profession,” a topic that was commonly discussed in the Proceedings of the AIEE in those days. Remember that electrical engineering was still a fairly new academic discipline, only a few decades old, and working engineers were looking to more established professions, such as medical doctors, to see how they might fit into society. Pupin had made a number of advancements in the efficiency of transmission over long-distance telephone, and in 1925 he served as the president of the AIEE.

The meeting concluded with resolutions, amendments, acceptances, and seconding, following Robert’s Rules of Order. (IEEE meetings still adhere to the rules.) In the last resolution, the participants patted themselves on the back for hosting this first-of-its-kind meeting and acknowledging their own genius that made it possible.

The Proceedings of the AIEE covered the meeting in great detail. Local press accounts offered less detail. I’ve found no evidence that they ever tried to replicate the meeting. They did try another experiment in which a member read the same paper at meetings in three different cities so that there could be a joint discussion about the contents. But it seems they returned to their normal schedule of annual and section meetings with technical paper sessions and discussion.

And nowhere have I found answers to some of the basic questions that I, as a historian 100 years later, have about the 1916 event. First, how much did this meeting cost in long-distance fees and who paid for it? Second, what receivers did the audience members use and did they work? And finally, what did the members and guests think of this grand experiment? (My editor would also like to know why no one took a photo of the event.)

But in the moment, rarely do people think about what later historians may want to know. And I suspect no one in attendance would have predicted that in the 21st century, people groan at the thought of another virtual meeting.

Дeнь poждeния cocиcки 219 лет

Когда то в прошлой жизни я одно время сидел на одних сосисках. Сидел не так долго как на пельменях 11 лет а где то года два. Было у меня 2 таких периода, с 10 по 12 год я приобретал вкусные Боярские или Дворянские потому что они были копчёными а с 13 по 14 невкусные Папа может потому что вкусных уже не было в продаже. Просто одни сосиски штук шесть без всякого гарнира только маринованые огурцы. Иногда заставлял себя пожарить картошку фри, её я редко покупал потому что дорогая. Здесь в интернате тоже подают сосиски, точнее одну и рожки. Раньше две давали. Сосиска и рожки не вкусные, без соуса и солёного огурца. Что то я много пишу про еду, наверно вам надоело, но у кого чего болит тот о том и говорит. Но завтра напишу последний пост и закрою эту тему

Steve Brenner - Signals (1985) [full album]
https://stevebrenner.bandcamp.com/album/s-i-g-n-a-l-s

Типа имитация Tangerine Dream синхронного периода,
но сильно лучше, чем все, что они сделали после 1984,
причем записано (в домашней студии, насколько я понимаю)
на порядок чище и яснее, чем TD писали, со всеми их сотнями
тысяч долларов, вбуханных в аппаратуру.

Я долго тыкался в биографию автора, пытаясь выяснить,
1985 это не мистификация ли, так и не понял. В принципе,
что сейчас подобной ретрофутуристической музыки пишут
очень много, с реверансами в сторону 1970-х и 1980-х,
лепят на альбом фальшивую датировку, и выкладывают на ютюб,
зарабатывая миллионы прослушиваний.

Вообще Ютюб разрушил централизованную систему музыкальной
критики и прессы, раньше люди шли читать про группы в
Питчфорк или Wire, и покупали альбом, а сейчас тыкают
в рекоммендации Ютюба. Это породило с десяток новых жанров,
свободных от кураторства музкритика, с изобретенной
(и часто целиком фальсифицированной) историей. Походу
появилась масса "групп", датированных на 30-40 лет
раньше, чем на самом деле, и зачастую сгенерированных
через AI, с имитацией всякого ретро; наиболее смешной
образчик вот, с ним-то все яснее ясного

https://bannedvinyl.bandcamp.com/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcDeZWIF1kY
https://www.youtube.com/@bannedvinyl

но вообще имитаций-мистификаций на ютюбе появилось
очень много, спасибо AI, и в основном оно весьма трудно распознается.

В любом случае, "Signals" Бреннера, безотносительно
к его аутентичности, совершенно прекрасен; особенно
если вы послушали весь доступный Танжерин Дрим и
желаете еще.

Привет

Дневник 1879-1912 годов (8149K) - Александра Викторовна Богданович - Биографии и Мемуары

Богдановичей – Евгения Васильевича (1829–1914) и его жену Александру Викторовну (1846–1914) – знал весь Петербург. Генерал Богданович, чиновник министерства внутренних дел, тайный советник, староста Исаакиевского собора, рьяный монархист, издатель и публицист, был хозяином известнейшего политического салона, просуществовавшего более полувека – с 1860-х годов почти до Первой мировой войны. «Бесчисленные связи и знакомства сделали незаметно мой дом сборным местом всего, что есть патриотического в нашем Отечестве… Все у меня бывают, встречаются, сходятся, спорят, завтракают за одним столом и обмениваются сведениями, мыслями, пожеланиями… Ни одно событие, мало-мальски достойное внимания, не минует моего дома, и нет ни одной газеты, которая не отставала бы от разговоров “у генерала Богдановича”».
Вследствие этого Богдановичи были весьма осведомленными людьми, а Александра Викторовна долгие годы вела дневник, куда аккуратно и тщательно заносила многое из того, что слышала от гостей – министров, губернаторов, военачальников, служащих дворцового ведомства, церковных иерархов, дипломатов, журналистов, коммерсантов, депутатов и пр.
Ее записи (политического, светского, бытового характера), находящиеся в Российском государственном историческом архиве в Санкт-Петербурге, исчисляются сотнями. Дневники, охватывающие события с 1879 по 1912 год (с купюрами и без тетрадей за 1882–1887 гг., которые, вероятно, утрачены), впервые были опубликованы под названием «Три последних самодержца» в 1924 году. С тех пор трудно найти автора, пишущего о последних годах империи, который не ссылался бы на записки генеральши Богданович.

Тончайшее несовершенство, что порождает всё. Долгий путь частице Бога и Новая физика, которая изменит мир (1192K) - Гвидо Тонелли - Физика

Гвидо Тонелли – один из авторитетнейших современных физиков-экспериментаторов, профессор Университета Пизы, сотрудник Европейской организации по ядерным исследованиям, автор множества статей и нескольких научно-популярных книг. В “Тончайшем несовершенстве, что порождает всё” он рассказывает об открытии одной из самых загадочных элементарных частиц – бозона Хиггса. Тонелли был непосредственным участником описываемых событий, он работал на Большом адронном коллайдере, являлся официальным представителем эксперимента по поиску бозона Хиггса, и потому его рассказ о том, как совершалось самое важное за последние десятилетия открытие в физике элементарных частиц, получился очень живым и личным.

Disinformation enabled Donald Trump&#x2019;s second term and is a crisis for democracies everywhere

Donald Trump did not win the 2020 election, but asserting that he did became a prerequisite for Republicans standing for nomination to Congress or the Senate to win their primaries. An entire party became a vehicle for disinformation.1 Trump did win the 2024 presidential election, and key to that victory was building on the success of that lie. If you control enough of the information ecosystem, truth no longer matters.Another telling example: Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, are not eating cats and dogs. US vice president elect, JD Vance, the source of that claim, admitted as much even as he justified it. “If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I'm going to do,” he said.2Disinformation in politics is nothing new. History is replete with claims that were fabricated to advance political aims. Although...
