Harry Federley
Short description
thumb Harry Federley (22 March 1879 – 13 November 1951) was a Finnish zoologist and pioneer of genetics. He conducted hybridization experiments on moths and was later also involved in eugenics in Finland. He was the founder of the department of genetics at the University of Helsinki.
Harry Federley
Life and work
Life and work Federley was born in Viipuri in a family of business people. His mother was of German origin while his father was Swedish. He went to study at the University of Helsinki where he examined the development of lepidopteran embryos. For his doctoral research in 1906 he examined the effect of temperature and moisture in the pupal period and its effect on the pigmentation of lepidopteran wings. He also made experiments on breeding of the Pygaera moths under Enzio Reuter. In 1910 Federley went to Jena to study embryology (Entwicklungsgeschichte) and examine Haeckel's biogenetic law but shifted interests to genetics. He examined Johannsen's Elementen der exakten Erblichkeitslehre and Bateson's works working with Ludwig Plate on mice in addition to his moths. In 1913 he wrote on chromosome ratios in Pygaera with cross-breeding between P. anachoreta, P. curtula and P. pigra which produced infertile offspring. He showed that they had two sets of chromosomes (a pair each from each parent) rather than one set. From 1909 he gave lectures on heredity at the University of Helsinki and in 1915 he was made docent of genetics rather than of zoology and thus became the first teacher of genetics in Finland. In 1923 he became extraordinary personal professor and he then established a department of genetics. He retired in 1949. Federley became aware of eugenics and the German circles which included Ludwig Plate who contributed to the journal Archiv für Rassen- und Gesellschaftsbiologie. Federley wrote reviews for the same journal while he worked in Jena. In 1911, Federley attended the International Hygiene Exhibition in Dresden where a section was devoted to eugenics. Federley became a proponent of eugenics in Finland and worked in association with the Public Health Association of Swedish-speaking Finland (founded in 1921, Samfundet Folkhälsan i Svenska Finland) with suggestions on sterilization of the "feeble-minded" although this was voluntary. Federley worked with the Florin Commission along with Ossian Schauman and Jarl Hagelstam. He was involved in promoting positive eugenics, the rewarding of Swedish-speaking mothers in Finland. His lectures included a course in “Human heredity and eugenics” which he offered until 1946. The teaching included readings from the German textbook by Baur, Fischer and Lenz, Grundrißder menschlichen Erblichkeitslehre und Rassenhygiene.

Darul Adalat
Short description
Darul Adalat (), better known as the Portuguese Building (), is a historic landmark located in Chittagong, Bangladesh. It was the first court building of the city.
Darul Adalat
Location
Location The building is located at the top of the hill besides the Collage Road in Chawkbazar, Chittagong. The building is situated in the western side of the Hazi Mohammad Mohsin College campus. One can go to the building through the main college campus.
Darul Adalat
History
History According to the locals, the building was made around 1666 during the Portuguese settlement in Chittagong, although alternative sources say that the building was made in 1761 during the Company rule. According to the historians, the age of the building is approximately 400 years. The building was the administrative fort and centre of social activities of the Portuguese settlers. It is said that there was a tunnel under the building to the Karnaphuli River, through which looted goods were brought to the building. The Portuguese used this route leaving the city. It is said that they sealed off the tunnel while fleeing the city following the conquest of Chittagong to the Mughals. It is also said that there was a secret room under the building, where goods and weapons were stored. During the Portuguese rule, dances, songs and entertainment were organized here every night. In 19th century, the building was used as the office of Chittagong Madrasah. In 1879, the Madrasah authorities purchased the building in 30 thousands taka from the British government. Later in 1927, following the establishment of Mohsin College, the building was used as a students hostel. In 2002, the college authorities declared the building as risky and completely shut down the academic & administrative works in the building. Currently entering the building is prohibited. By 2013, it had fallen into disrepair and was in danger of being demolished to make way for a library.
Darul Adalat
Architecture
Architecture In 2009, a survey was conducted by the college authorities & the Department of Archaeology of the Government of Bangladesh, which found that the building's architecture does not match with any of the existing architectural patterns of the Chittagong region, such as Mughal, British or modern, thus, the survey concluded in identifying the structure as Portuguese. The building is two-storied, and has 20 rooms. Every floor has a central room, around which other rooms are arranged. One of the three staircases in the building is a spiral staircase, which is typical to the medieval European architecture. The walls are 10 inches thick, and only bricks were used in the construction. There are two small domes on the roof of the building, from which the guards could keep an eye on the entire city.

Draft:Cyber Siege From Russia to Redcar
AFC submission
Cyber Siege: From Russia to Redcar is a 2024 British documentary television programme produced by the BBC as part of its Scams and Scandals series. The documentary investigates the 2020 ransomware attack on Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council, which significantly disrupted council services and cost the local authority more than £10 million. The programme aired on 20 May 2024 on BBC One North East & Cumbria and was made available nationwide via BBC iPlayer. Overview The documentary explores how a phishing email sent to council staff resulted in a ransomware attack that shut down the IT systems of Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council in February 2020. The attack forced the council to return to manual processes, severely disrupting essential public services for approximately 135,000 residents. The incident is examined through interviews with cybersecurity experts, local officials, and investigative journalists. The documentary also features re-enactments and visual breakdowns to illustrate the attack vector and its consequences. Contributors The programme includes commentary from cybersecurity professionals and public sector representatives. One of the featured experts is Garry Brown, Managing Director of the UK-based IT and cybersecurity firm Bondgate IT, who provided insight into both the technical and human aspects of the attack. Context The Redcar and Cleveland cyberattack is one of several high-profile ransomware incidents affecting UK public services in recent years. The documentary places the event within the broader context of increasing cyber threats against public sector organisations, highlighting vulnerabilities related to phishing, social engineering, and underinvestment in cyber resilience. Reception The episode received attention for raising public awareness about cybersecurity threats faced by local government bodies. Viewers and industry observers noted the programme’s clear explanation of the risks posed by ransomware and its emphasis on human error as a critical vulnerability.

As a youth, he played for developmental sides SuperSport and Hurricane before signing his first senior contract with Vovovo in 2019. In December 2021 it as announced that Mabuza had joined Nsingizini Hotspurs on a 1-year deal from Vovovo with a club option for an additional season. While a member of Nsingizini Hotspurs, the player was spotted by a scout from South African club Mamelodi Sundowns during the 2022 COSAFA U-20 Cup. The following summer, the scout arranged for Mabuza to travel to Italy for a three-week trial with US Città di Pontedera of Serie C. However, the trial was cut short and the player returned home because of a heart condition detected during a medical examination. Mabuza was also spotted by an Italian scout from Empoli which lead to additional trial invitations from clubs in Serie B during his time in Italy. In June 2024, Mabuza was heavily linked with a move to fellow Premier League side Manzini Sea Birds with the move reportedly set to happen at the conclusion of his contract with Hotspurs. He continued his impressive league form with his new club, becoming an early contender for the league's top scorer award and earning honours including being named to the league's Team of the Week in February 2025.

Roberto Florio
Infobox musical artist
Rodolfo Ángel Florio (9 November 1929 – 5 October 1993), also known by the pseudonym Chocho, was a singer dedicated to the tango genre. He worked with various top-tier orchestras, including those of Francini-Pontier, Carlos Di Sarli, Alfredo De Angelis, José Basso, and Lorenzo Barbero.
Roberto Florio
Professional career
Professional career As a boy, he began working for a weaver, and with his slightly older coworker—who would later become known as Jorge Casal—they would sometimes sing tangos while they worked. At the age of 20, he entered a singing contest at the Federal Argentino Club in the Saavedra neighborhood and won, beating out the other contestants, one of whom was Roberto Goyeneche. After the contest, he accepted an offer to perform at Café Los Andes in the Chacarita neighborhood, taking over for Alberto Marino, who was already performing there. He didn’t have much formal musical training, so he decided to study first with a group of guitarists and later with a music teacher. While performing at Café La Armonía on Avenida Corrientes at 1400, he was heard by Lorenzo Barbero, who also worked at the venue and brought him into his Orquesta de la Argentinidad, where he stayed for three years. The orchestra had 25 musicians, some of whom played regional instruments, as it performed not only tangos but also other rhythms in an effort to represent all the provinces of Argentina. He performed alongside great figures such as Pedro Maffia and Alberto Castillo in a program sponsored by Jabón Federal called La gran audición Federal. It aired on Thursdays from 9:00 to 10:30 p.m. and on Sundays from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. It was the most successful radio show of the time in Argentina and reached the entire country through a national network of stations. By the 1950s, they were also performing on the official television channel, the newly created Canal 7. In October 1951, Barbero's orchestra began recording for the Odeon record label, with Roberto Florio recording the waltz La virgen del perdón by Carlos Vicente Geroni Flores, with lyrics by Vicente Retta and Carlos Max Viale; Barbero’s tango La serranita; the chamamé El Recluta by Mario Millán Medina; and, in a duet with Carlos Del Monte, the milonga-style tango Tomá mate, tomá mate by Francisco Canaro. In the meantime, he also collaborated with Oscar Castagniaro’s ensemble in several performances and in the recording of Madre hay una sola for the TK label. On the recommendation of Jorge Casal, he was hired by the Francini-Pontier orchestra and was replaced by Jorge Sobral in Barbero's orchestra. With his new orchestra, he performed and recorded for RCA Victor: Los cosos de al lao in 1954, and Cuartito azul, Por una muñeca, and Por unos ojos negros in 1955. The Francini-Pontier orchestra had made its debut on September 1, 1945, at the opening of the Tango Bar on Corrientes Avenue at 1200, and the co-direction lasted ten years. On the same date in 1955, Armando Pontier debuted as the sole leader of his own orchestra. When the orchestra leaders parted ways in 1955, Florio followed Pontier and was joined by the then-not-yet-famous singer Julio Sosa. With this orchestra, he recorded Lágrimas de sangre and Quemá esas cartas. The following year, he joined the orchestra of Carlos di Sarli, where he remained until early 1958, a period considered the peak of his career. Among his successful songs from that time are Adiós corazón, Buenos Aires, Calla, Cantemos corazón, Cuanta angustia, Derrotado (with music by Antonio Arcieri and lyrics by José Terragno and Antonio Bernárdez), Destino de flor, Fogón de huella, Nuestra noche, Pobre buzón, Por qué regresas tú, Por un te quiero, Y todavía te quiero, Soñemos, and—in duet with Jorge Durán—Quién sino tú and Serenata mía. He then worked with Alfredo de Angelis’s orchestra alongside singer Juan Carlos Godoy, and during 1958 he recorded six tracks for Odeon. After leaving De Angelis, he partnered with Jorge Durán, and together they formed their own orchestra, which was led by Orlando Tripodi on piano. In 1959, they began recording a full-length album for the RCA Victor label, but when they were halfway through, the company decided not to release it. As a result, only a few recordings became known over time and eventually reached many interested listeners. These include Dame mi libertad, Yo no quise hacerte mal, Un amor imposible, Estrella, and, in duet with Jorge Durán, Regresa a mí, Amor de resero, and Ojos de canela. Through the mediation of Eber Lobato, his wife's brother, he had the opportunity to sing in the United States and later returned to Argentina at the request of tango dancer Juan Carlos Copes. In 1962, he spent a brief period with José Basso’s orchestra, accompanying singers Jorge Durán and Floreal Ruiz, and recorded Mano cruel, Un amor imposible, and Por qué la quise tanto for the Music Hall label—the latter achieving unexpected success. He then continued as a soloist, performing at venues in Buenos Aires, on television, and in the provinces. In 1967, he recorded with José Libertella, and two years later, with Roberto Pansera, he recorded Barriada de tango. That same year, he also recorded accompanied by Carlos García. In 1974, for the Magenta label, he sang accompanied by the Trío Yumba, as well as two tracks—Estrella and Tu angustia y mi dolor—with accompaniment by a group directed by Dante Smurra. In 1980, he recorded El último escalón with accompaniment by Armando Lacava. Like many other singers, he performed at various tango venues on weekends. In 1989, he spent several months working at the well-known and popular tango venue El Viejo Almacén as the singer for Ernesto Baffa’s quartet, which included Ernesto Baffa on bandoneón, Ado Falasca on piano, Rubén Castro on guitar, and Sergio Paolo on electric bass. thumb|450x450px|Roberto Florio with Jorge Valdez and musician Sergio Paolo after a tango show held in Mar del Plata, featuring the orchestra of pianist and conductor Lucho Repetto. He made some performances alongside Lucho Repetto’s orchestra, one of them in Mar del Plata, with the singer Jorge Valdez. He gradually retired from performing due to health problems. In his later years, he managed a shoe store called El Buscapie, located just a few meters from the Primera Junta station at 108 Centenera Street, together with his wife, Gladys Lobato. He passed away in Buenos Aires on October 5, 1993. One of the songs he composed, titled Tabaco rubio, was recorded by Roberto Rufino. Roberto Florio was an emotional, passionate singer who conveyed the songs with precision and, at the same time, had an intimate, warm, and delicate style, with very good pitch and a distinctive personality.
