St. Antuan Katolik Kilisesi (), İstanbul'un en büyük ve cemaati en geniş Katolik Kilisesi'dir. Beyoğlu'ndaki İstiklal Caddesi üzerinde Galatasaray'dan (Galatasaray Lisesi tarafında) Tünel'e doğru giderken sol tarafta bulunur.

Tarih
1230'da rahipler, kurucuları Assisili Aziz Fransua adına, Galata civarında bir kilise inşa ettiler. 1639 ve 1660 yangınlarında iki kez yanan ve her yangından sonra yeniden aynı yerde kurulan Aziz Fransua Kilisesi en son geçirdiği yangın olan ve bütün çevresini yutan 1696 yangınından sonra Beyoğlu'daki yeni konumuna taşındı. 1724 yılında Pera'da Aziz Antuan adı verilen bu yeni bir kilise Osmanlı İmparatorluk saray ve devlet hizmetinde bulunan ve ayrıca ticaretle uğraşan Katolik ülkelerin (ekserisi İtalyan-Fransız) vatandaşları ve onların aileleri için inşa edildi ve kutsandı.

Mimari
Şimdiki, cephesi kırmızı tuğla taşlarla örülü kilisenin inşasına, 1906 yılında eskisinin yerinde başlanmış ve 1912 yılında Aziz Antuan'ın naşının Padova Basilikası'ndaki yerine taşınmasının yıldönümü olan 15 Şubat günü Rahipler, yeni kiliselerine taşındılar, kilise kutsandı ve ibadete açıldı. İstanbul doğumlu İtalyan Mimar Giulio Mongeri tarafından İtalyan Neogotik üslubunda, betonarme olarak inşa edilmiştir. 20x50 m ölçülerinde, Latin hacı biçiminde ve Neogotik üslupta inşa edilmiştir. Kilise duvarları belirli yüksekliğe kadar mozaik kaplama ve yapının dış cephe duvarları tuğladandır. Kilisenin girişi, kiliseye gelir sağlamak için inşa edilmiş iki bina arasındaki kapıdan verilmiştir. Bu kapı kilisenin avlusuna açılır ve İstiklal Caddesine bakan bu cephenin genişliği 38 metredir. Kilise İtalyan rahipler tarafından yönetilir.

İstiklâl Caddesi girişindeki avlunun önündeki altışar katlı ve birbirlerine bir geçitle bağlanan 2 adet apartman, kiliseye gelir getirmesi için inşa edilmiştir. Bunlar St. Antoine Apartmanları'dır ve İstiklâl Caddesi'nin ilk betonarme yapılarındandırlar.

Born This Way Foundation —en español: Fundación Nacido de Esta Manera— es una organización sin fines de lucro con la misión de promover la individualidad y la expresión entre los jóvenes, ayudando a que la comunidad los apoye. La organización fue fundada por la artista estadounidense Lady Gaga y su madre, Cynthia Germanotta, inspirada en el nombre del segundo álbum de estudio de la cantante, Born This Way (2011).

La fundación tiene como objetivo crear un «mundo más valiente y amable» para los jóvenes; crear espacios seguros, promover el aprendizaje de habilidades para la vida, y proporcionar oportunidades para mejorar sus comunidades locales. En un comunicado, Lady Gaga dijo: «Mi madre y yo hemos iniciado un proyecto de pasión [...] para establecer una norma de valentía y amabilidad, así como una comunidad mundial que proteja y nutra a los demás frente a la intimidación y el abandono».

En septiembre de 2012, Gaga fue galardonada por Yoko Ono con la subvención LennonOno Para La Paz por realizar una «campaña activa a favor de temas de tolerancia y paz» con la fundación. El premio «tiene la intención de mantener ese activismo pop vivo» en el espíritu de Ono y su marido John Lennon, cuya canción «Imagine» incluye la famosa frase «Imagina toda la gente viviendo la vida en paz».

Antecedentes
Lady Gaga tiene una larga historia de acción contra el abuso y la potenciación de los jóvenes. En 2011, Gaga se reunió con el presidente de EE.UU., Barack Obama, para hablar sobre el tema. Su encuentro fue, en parte, respuesta a la muerte de un chico de catorce años de edad, Jamey Rodemeyer, que se suicidó porque estaba siendo acosado. Antes de morir, grabó un vídeo "It Gets Better y publicó un verso de una canción de Lady Gaga en su página de Facebook. En 2010, la Red de Educación Gay, Lesbiana y Heterosexual declaró: «No ha habido una mayor atención de los medios en torno a los [últimos] suicidios». En el mismo mes, Tyler Clementi murió, y se informó de que otros cuatro adolescentes LGBT se suicidaron después de ser acosados por su homosexualidad.

The Guardian señaló además el interés de Gaga en el devastador historial de tiroteos en las escuelas perpetrados por estudiantes que se sentían marginados sociales:

Historia
La organización fue fundada en 2011 y lanzado formalmente en 2012 por la artista Lady Gaga y su madre, quien dijo que «la mezquinidad de las personas, de alto nivel social, hacia las personas de las más bajas esferas socioecomomicas y adictas a las drogas, debe ser eliminada y a su vez, inspirar a los jóvenes (cualquiera sea su posición social), para crear un sistema de apoyo en sus respectivas adicciones». En la inauguración asistieron varios personajes que ayudan a la organización, la periodista Oprah Winfrey, el escritor Deepak Chopra y la secretaria de Salud y Servicios Humanos de los Estados Unidos, Kathleen Sebelius, los cuales pronunciaron discursos a lo largo de la inauguración.

Anglo-America most often refers to a region in the Americas in which English is the main language and British culture and the British Empire have had significant historical, ethnic, linguistic, and cultural impact. This includes the United States of America, most of Canada, and some Caribbean countries. Anglo-America is distinct from Latin America, a region of the Americas where Romance languages (e.g., Spanish, Portuguese, and French) are prevalent. The adjective is commonly used, for instance, in the phrase "Anglo-American law", a concept roughly coterminous with Common Law.

Geographic region
While Canada is one of the two principal Anglo-American countries, the province of Quebec and the region of Inuit Nunangat both have non-English speaking majorities, for this reason they are excluded from Anglo-America. Sint Eustatius, Sint Maarten, and Saba are also not typically included in Anglo-America, despite their English-speaking majorities, because they are constituent countries or public bodies that form part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Ethnic groups

Economy

People from other parts of the world have immigrated to Anglo-America in search of a better quality of life, better employment, and an escape from famine, poverty, violence, and conflict. People from many different ethnic origins in Latin America and more remote places all over the world, including the less English-dominant parts of Oceania, continental Europe, Asia, and Africa, all live in Anglo-America contemporarily.

Manuel Cano García (n. Zaragoza; 11 de marzo de 1926-Barcelona; 14 de abril de 1994) fue un locutor radiofónico, actor de cine y actor de doblaje español.

Comenzó como locutor radiofónico en Radio Zaragoza, en 1947. Años más tarde, en 1951, Cano se mudó a Barcelona, donde comenzaría su faceta artística como actor de doblaje. Tras haber trabajado en RNE y en Radio Barcelona, decidió abandonar la radio en 1965 para así dedicarse de lleno al doblaje de películas, faceta en la que había comenzado en 1952, en los estudios Voz de España S.A. de Barcelona. Su primer papel de envergadura, fue doblando a Stephen Boyd en Ben-Hur. Tras la falta de trabajo de Barcelona y disputas suyas con algunos estudios de la Ciudad Condal, a mediados de los 70, decidió trasladarse a Madrid, donde doblaría hasta 1991, año en el que volvería a Barcelona y donde ya permanecería hasta el final de su carrera, aunque volviendo en alguna ocasión a Madrid para doblar. Su voz tranquila, media y dúctil, de «chico guapo», era la apropiada para doblar a los galanes hollywodienses de los años 60 y 70. Grandes estrellas de renombre internacional como Steve McQueen, Warren Beatty, Maximilian Schell, Anthony Perkins, George Peppard, Yul Brynner, Montgomery Clift, Sidney Poitier, Glenn Ford, Alain Delon, Lex Barker, Alan Bates, Henry Fonda, Stephen Boyd, Michael Caine, Gary Cooper, Tony Curtis, Marcello Mastroianni, Edward Fox, James Garner, Richard Harris, Michael Landon, Franco Nero, Peter O'Toole, Gregory Peck, James Caan o Robert Redford, entre muchos otros, contaron con la voz de Cano en numerosas ocasiones. Dobló a Max von Sydow, quien interpreta el papel principal de Jesús de Nazaret en la película La historia más grande jamás contada del director George Stevens en 1965. También dobló a Jack Nicholson en Chinatown, del director Roman Polanski, Álguien voló sobre el nido del cuco y El honor de los Prizzi. Cano consideraba a Nicholson el mejor actor de todos a los que prestó voz. Está considerado por muchos compañeros como la voz de galán por excelencia. Posiblemente, la voz más bella que ha dado el doblaje.

Cano también se dobló a sí mismo en varias películas españolas en las que intervino como actor secundario.

A finales de los 80 se le diagnosticó un cáncer de laringe, y el 14 de abril de 1994 falleció por dicha enfermedad. Fue incinerado y sus cenizas se esparcieron en el río Ebro.

Uno de sus últimos doblajes importantes y más destacados fue el de James Caan en la película Misery, doblada en Madrid.

Fue conocido entre sus compañeros de profesión como Manolo Cano.

Strada de aur (în ) este o străduță celebră situată în incinta Cetății din Praga, Republica Cehă, în cartierul Hradčany. Ea este formată dintr-un șir de unsprezece case colorate relativ joase, care au fost construite în stil manierist la sfârșitul secolului al XVI-lea pentru a-i găzdui pe cei douăzeci de gardieni ai împăratului Rudolf al II-lea de Habsburg (1555-1612), precum și familiile acestora.

Numele său se datorează aurarilor care au locuit mai târziu în acel loc. Strada a fost cunoscută și sub numele de Strada Alchimiștilor sau Aleea Alchimiștilor, din cauza unei legende că acolo ar fi locuit în secolul al XVI-lea câțiva alchimiști care încercau să transforme fierul în aur pentru împăratul Rudolf al II-lea și să obțină piatra filozofală și elixirul vieții. Nu există însă dovezi că alchimiști au lucrat sau au locuit acolo și se pare că aceștia ar fi locuit pe o stradă aflată în apropiere. Mai târziu au locuit pe această stradă, pentru o perioadă scurtă de timp, scriitori renumiți precum Franz Kafka și Jaroslav Seifert.

Astăzi, Strada de aur este unul dintre cele mai vizitate locuri din capitala Republicii Cehe, aici aflându-se galerii de artă și magazine de suveniruri. Ea se bucură de o mare popularitate în rândul turiștilor datorită aspectului caselor sale colorate cu ferestre și uși mici, a acoperișurilor joase și a coșurilor de fum.

Localizare

Strada de aur se află în partea de nord-est a Cetății Praga și la sud-est de Grădinile Regale. Situată lângă Mănăstirea Sf. Gheorghe, ea se învecinează cu Turnul Alb (Bílá svěž) la vest și cu Turnul Daliborka (Daliborka svěž) și Turnul Negru (Černá svěž) la est.

Istoric

Construcție
Prin rescriptul din 16 septembrie 1597, Rudolf al II-lea de Habsburg a acordat dreptul de a se stabili aici celor 24 de gardieni regali ("tunarii roșii") și membrilor familiilor lor. Ei și-au construit casele pe cheltuiala proprie. Dimensiunile mici ale acestor case și amplasarea lor lângă zidurile cetății s-au datorat probabil lipsei de spațiu din zonele aflate în apropierea Castelului Praga sau, poate, nemulțumirii stareței Mănăstirii Sf. Gheorghe care se plângeau de comportamentul nepotrivit al acestor oameni.

Casele aveau și o serie de dependințe care au fost demolate în cursul reamenajării străzii din anul 1864, rămânând doar casele de la zidul nordic.

Secolul al XX-lea
Strada de aur a devenit celebră prin faptul că aici au locuit în secolul al XX-lea mai multe personalități culturale (poeți, prozatori,

În noiembrie 1916 scriitorul evreu ceh Franz Kafka s-a mutat pe Strada de aur, împreună cu sora sa, Ottla, pentru a scrie în liniște și a locuit până în martie 1917 în casa de la numărul 22. El a scris aici majoritatea povestirilor ce au fost publicate în volumul "Un medic de țară". În această casă există astăzi o librărie în care sunt vândute în special cărțile lui Kafka.

Tot pe această stradă, în acasa de la numărul 12, a locuit în 1929 poetul și jurnalistul ceh Jaroslav Seifert (1901-1986), care a fost unul dintre semnatarii Cartei 77 și a obținut Premiul Nobel pentru Literatură în anul 1984. În aceeași casă au locuit în alte perioade și scriitorii František Halas și Vítězslav Nezval.

Într-o altă casă a locuit înainte de al Doilea Război Mondial celebra ghicitoare pragheză Matylda Průšová, care folosea pseudonimul de Madame de Thébes. Ea a murit în cele din urmă a murit din cauza torturii în timpul interogatoriilor Gestapo-ului.

Casele au fost locuite până la cel de-al Doilea Război Mondial. După război, Oficiul Președintelui Cehoslovaciei a cumpărat casele de la ultimii proprietari, iar strada a fost restaurată sub îndrumarea arhitectului Pavel Janák până în anul 1955. Ideea văruirii fațadelor în culori diferite i-a aparținut pictorului și cineastului Jiří Trnka.

Secolul al XXI-lea

Strada a trecut începând din mai 2010 printr-o lucrare amplă de restaurare. Această lucrare a permis deschiderea unei expoziții dedicate istoriei sale din perioada 1600-1956. Strada de aur a fost deschisă din nou pentru public la 1 iunie 2011.

Astăzi străduța face parte din inelul mic și mare al castelului (de exemplu, intrarea este disponibilă prin plata unei taxe), dar începând de la ora de închidere a spațiilor interioare ale Castelului Praga se poate intra gratuit. În zilele noastre există mai multe magazine de suveniruri în casele de pe această stradă și un muzeu de armuri medievale într-o fostă fortificație din secolul al XIV-lea accesibilă de pe Strada de aur.

Strada de aur este conectată cu Turnul Dalibor, care era folosit ca temniță în perioada medievală (începând din 1496).

Joel Casamayor Johnson (12 de julio de 1971, Guantánamo, Cuba) es un ex-boxeador profesional que fue medalla de oro de peso gallo en los Juegos Olímpicos de 1992 en Barcelona al derrotar a Wayne McCullough.Se convirtió en profesional tras competir en las Olimpiadas del año 1996 en Atlanta. Como profesional fue dos veces campeón del mundo, una del peso mosca de la Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (AMB) en el año 2000 y la segunda en la división del peso ligero obteniendo el título de la Organización Mundial de Boxeo (OMB) en 2006.

Su apodo de El Cepillo, viene de su uppercut, con los que "barre" a sus oponentes.

Biografía

Carrera Amateur
Con apenas 16 años alcanzó el segundo lugar en la Copa Leningrado, en la Unión Soviética, al perder por la medalla de oro frente al polaco Henryk Sienkiewickz, en el peso mosca. Comenzó consiguiendo éxitos a la edad de 18 años, cuando consiguió la medalla de oro en 1989 en el Campeonato Mundial de Boxeo Junior. Tres años después logró la medalla de oro del peso gallo en los Juegos Olímpicos de 1992 al derrotar en los puntos al irlandés Wayne McCullough. Un año más tarde obtuvo la medalla de plata en los Campeonatos del Mundo Amateur al perder contra el búlgaro Alexander Hristov en los puntos. En ese mismo año de 1994 repitió medalla de plata en la Copa del Mundo celebrada en Bangkok.

Carrera profesional
En 1999 ganó el título de la Federación Norteamericana de Boxeo de peso ligero al ganar a José Luis Noyola. Un año más tarde, en el 2000, cosniguió el título de la AMB de peso ligero venciendo a Jong-Kwon Baek por un KO Técnico en la quinta ronda. Tras defender el cinturón en varias ocasiones, lo perdió en 2002, en un combate de unificación con el campeón de la OMB, ante el brasileño Acelino Freitas. Joel perdió este combate tras una decisión polémica donde se le quitaron puntos por un resbalón, que le fue contado como caída, y un golpe a destiempo. En 2003, se enfrentó a Diego Corrales ganando el título de la Asociación
Internacional de Boxeo, que un año más tarde perdería en un combate, ante el mismo adversario, por los títulos de los campeonatos IBA y OMB. Joel volvió a tener otra oportunidad por el campeonato del Consejo Mundial de Boxeo ante José Luis Castillo, perdiendo en los puntos por una decisión dividida en lo que, a priori, era una victoria clara para Casamayor. Después de esta derrota, parecía que Casamayor estaba en una espiral descendente, empatando en su siguiente combate contra el invicto Almazbek Raiymkulov, en una eliminatoria por el campeonato CMB.

Tras victorias contra rivales de poco nivel, en octubre de 2006 pelearía por tercera vez contra Diego Corrales al que vence por una decisión dividida y alzándose con los títulos CMB y The Ring. Defendió ambos títulos con victoria ante José Armando Santa Cruz y Michael Katsidis, siendo el primero en derrotar al invicto Katsidis.

El 13 de septiembre de 2008 defendió sus dos títulos frente Juan Manuel Márquez, en el MGM Grand Arena de Las Vegas. Casamayor perdió esta pelea por un KO Técnico, el primer combate que perdía por la vía del knockout, en el undécimo asalto tras una gran combinación de golpes del mexicano Márquez.

A su vuelta tras su derrota con Márquez, ganó por decisión unánime a Jason Davis el 6 de noviembre de 2009. En el año 2010 se enfrentó a Robert Guerrero, en una pelea donde Casamayor cayó a la lona en el segundo asalto, aunque finalmente perdería el combate por una decisión unánime. Disputó su último combate hasta la fecha, el 12 de noviembre de 2011 contra el invicto Timothy Bradley por el título de la OMB. Joel perdió su pelea por un KO que recibió en el octavo asalto. Tras esta pelea, Casamayor dio positivio por marihuana, en un control realizado por la Comisión Atlética del Nevada.

Matthias Ortner (* 18. Februar 1877 in Söll, Tirol; † 14. Juni 1960 ebenda) war ein österreichischer Schriftsteller sowie römisch-katholischer Militärseelsorger und Pfarrer.

Leben

1914 rückte Ortner zu den Tiroler Landesschützen nach Galizien ein. Er kam mit dem 1. Tiroler Landsturmregiment nach Serbien. In einem verwegenen Ausbruch führte er 1250 den Serben ausgelieferte Soldaten durch die vereiste Mohana-Schlucht in die Freiheit und erhielt dafür vom Kaiser den Verdienstorden Piis meritis II. Klasse am Band mit Kriegsdekoration und Schwertern. Ab 1915 betreute "Feldpater Ortner" die Kranken des Heeres in Peterwardein. Dort war er in engem Kontakt mit Erzherzog Eugen. Die Mannschaft und mit ihm ihr Feldpater kamen ab Mai 1915 zum Grenzabschnitt Lavarone-Folgaria. Bei der Basson-Schlacht war Ortner unermüdlich tätig, um Verwundete zu bergen und Sterbenden die letzte Ölung zu spenden. Er erhielt dabei auch Anerkennung vom feindlichen Lager, da er sich im Ernstfall auch um deren Verwundete und Sterbende kümmerte. Ortner folgte den Tiroler Landstürmern zum Col di Lana. Er war auch bei der Mai-Offensive 1916 dabei. Für besonders heroischen Einsatz auf dem Monte Spil im Vallarsa erhielt Ortner das Signum laudis am Band mit Schwertern.

Ortner kam dann zum benachbarten Monte Corno, zum Lager Zocchi und dann in die Assaschlucht zwischen Asiago und Roana. Beim Angriff auf dem Pasubio war Ortner wieder mit den Tiroler Landstürmern im Einsatz; anschließend ging es zum Einsatz im Montalon. Der Tiroler Landsturm eroberte am 11. November 1917 die Festung Cima di Campo auf der Höhe vor Primolano in der Valsugana. Ortner war dabei maßgeblich beteiligt, als bereits italienische Granaten fielen und ein Zurückgehen unmöglich war, indem er in Abwesenheit von Offizieren erfolgreich den Sturm auf die Festung befahl. Ortner erhielt dafür das Ritterkreuz zum Orden der Eisernen Krone mit Kriegsdekoration und den Schwertern. Am 6. Dezember 1917 konnte die Höhe von Meletta endgültig erfolgreich gestürmt werden, und Feldpater Ortner war trotz einer weiteren Verwundung dabei. Der Tiroler Landsturm kam anschließend zum Pasubio, dann ins Ortlergebiet. Am 3. November 1918 wurde der Waffenstillstand mit den Italienern unterzeichnet, der aber erst am 4. November in Kraft trat.

Bei Kriegsende geriet Feldpater Matthias Ortner in italienische Gefangenschaft, konnte aber über die Berge in die Schweiz flüchten. 1919 wurde er Kooperator von Altenmarkt im Pongau; anschließend wirkte er seelsorglich in Oberndorf bei St. Johann in Tirol (1920–1926) und in Ebbs bei Kufstein (1926–1935). Als Pfarrer von Ebbs engagierte er sich für die Wiederaufnahme der Ritterschauspiele. Von 1935 bis 1958 betreute er die Pfarrexpositur Aschau bei Kirchberg in Tirol. Im Ruhestand zog er sich in seine Heimat Söll zurück, wo er 1960 verstarb.

Ortner verfasste unter anderem die Dramen Alexius (1913) und Ramo Rodil (1913) sowie den Oratoriumstext Eva und Maria (1925). Er veröffentlichte einen Katalog von Verhaltensweisen für den Umgang der Feldgeistlichen mit den Offizieren.

Pyotr Aleksandroviç Çihaçov(Pierre de Tchihatchef) (16 Ağustos 1812 – 13 Ekim 1890) Altay dağları, Avrupa ve Orta Doğu'da doğa bilimi çalışmaları yapmış Rus doğa tarihçisi, coğrafyacı ve yerbilimci.

İlk yılları
Çihaçov soylu bir ailenin çocuğu olarak St. Petersburg yakınlarındaki Gaçina malikânesinde 1812(1808) yılında doğdu. Eğitim hayatında ilk olarak Rus Çarlığı'nda devlet adamı yetiştiren Çarskoye Sele okulunun eğitimcileri tarafından evinde yetiştirildi. İlk ve orta öğrenimini memleketinde tamamlayan Çihaçov politika bilimi diploması almış ve diplomat olarak mezun olmuştur. 1835'ten itibaren yurt dışına görevlendirmeyle giden Çihaçov bu göevi sırasında Avrupa'da jeoloji eğitimi almıştır. Çihaçov Freiburg, Münih, Berlin ve Paris'te jeoloji eğitimi görmüş ve dönemin en büyük jeologu Elie de Beaumont'dan ders almıştır. 1841'de de ilk jeolojik etüdlerini Güney İtalya'da Gargano dağı'nda ve Nice kenti civarında yapmıştır.

Olgunluk Çağı
Çihaçov'un ilk büyük araştırma gezisi 1842'de kuzeydoğuya Sibirya'ya doğru olmuştur ve Altay dağlarının jeolojisi üzerine çalışmıştır. Altay dağlarının modern anlamda ilk ayrıntılı çalışması olarak literatüre geçen bu gezi önceki çalışmaların ötesinde oldukça önemli sonuçlar üretmiştir. Altayların Paleozoyik'ten genç kaya formasyonlarını bulundurmadığını, Paleozoyik sonrası jeolojik açıdan aktif bir hale geldiğini ve bu bölgede bulunan fosil topluluklarının Avrupa ve Amerika'da bulunan fosil topluluklarına uymadığını belirlemiştir. 1845'te Paris'te bu bilimsel yapıtını yayımlamıştır. Çihaçov, Altaylarda çalıştıktan sonra İtalya'da Calabres bölgesinde jeolojik araştırmalar yapmıştır. Çihaçov'un bu çalışmaları Avrupa'da ciddi şekilde ilgiyle karşılanmış ve ünlü jeolog Elie de Beaumont'un "Yabancı Bilginlerden Seçmeler" adlı yapıtında Çihaçov'un çalışmaları da yer almıştır. 1845 yılında İstanbul'a Türk dilini incelemek amacıyla diplomatik görevle atanan Çihaçov, uzun sürecek Yakın Doğu araştırmalarına başlayacaktı. Kısa süre sonra görevi bırakan Çihaçov bir gezgin olarak Osmanlı ülkesinde uzun soluklu araştırma gezilerine çıkmıştır. Akdeniz kıyılarından Fırat kıyılarına, Doğu Karadeniz'den Musul'a ve Suriye'den Mısır'a dek uzanan ve binlerce kilometre karelik bir alan kaplayan 6 saha çalışmasını 11 yılda tamamlamıştır. Yaya olarak gerçekleştirdiği 11 yıllık bu saha çalışma dönemini laboratuvar ve büro çalışmaları izlemiştir. Nihayet ilk olarak 1853'te anıtsal yapıtı olan Asie Mineure; description physique, statistique et archéologique de cette contrée'yi 4 cilt ve 3 atlas olmak üzere bastırdı. İklim bilimsel, coğrafi, jeolojik ve botanik incelemeleri kapsayan bu geziler ve çalışmaların en önemli yanı Anadolu'nun modern anlamda bilimsel olarak ilk kez ele alınmış olmasıdır.

Çihaçov'un bir diğer önemli yapıtı, Osmanlı başkenti İstanbul'un genel bir jeolojik ve coğrafi incelemesi olan Le Bosphore et Constantinople adlı çalışmadır. Bu yapıt İstanbul'un konu edildiği ilk bilimsel çalışmadır ve İstanbul'un jeolojisi, coğrafyası ve iklimi çeşitli gözlemler ve ölçümlerle incelenmiştir. Çihaçov özellikle Boğaziçi'nin kuzeybatısında o dönem Devoniyen yaşlı olduğu düşünülen kayaçların varlığını belgeleyip yine Boğaz'ın kuzeyinde Kretase yaşlı geniş volkanik arazileri de gözlemlemiştir. İklimsel olarak İstanbul'un kendisiyle aynı enlemde bulunan kentlere göre minimum sıcaklıklar konusunda daha soğuk olduğunu belirlemiştir. Ayrıca Strabo'dan beri benimsenen Anadolu'nun doğu-batı orografik çatı modelini reddederek bu bölgedeki dağ oluşumlarını kuzeybatı ve kuzeydoğu yönlü geçişler üzerinden kurmuş ve Anadolu'nun genç oluşumunu yansıtan genç yaşlı kayaçlarda da bunu destekleyen veriler bulmuştur. Çihaçov'un 1864 tarihli yapıtı Türkiye İş Bankası Kültür Yayınları'ndan İstanbul ve Boğaziçi adıyla 2019 yılında çıkmıştır.

Doğa bilimleri alanındaki katkılarının yanı sıra Kırım savaşı öncesi özellikle Orta Anadolu'daki Rum ve Ermeni tebaanın sosyal ve dini yaşamına yönelik günlüğüne kaydettiği pek çok ayrıntı dikkati çeker. Rotasındaki antik kentlere de özel ilgi göstermiştir.

Son yılları
1870 yılından itibaren Pierre de Tchihatchef (Çihaçov) bilimsel gezilerini daha az yorularak ve eşiyle beraber yapmaya başlamıştır. Bu gezilerini Mağripler üzerinde yapan Çihaçov, Avrupa'ya döndüğünde bu gezilerinden çıkan sonuçları yayımladı. Ayrıca l'Asie Mineure adlı çalışmasındaki notları, verileri ve gözlemleri tekrar gözden geçirerek bu kez de Almanca Kleinasien adıyla 1887'de yayımlamıştır. Bu tarihten 3 yıl sonra 13 Ekim 1890'da Floransa'da hayata gözlerini yummuştur. Çalışma hayatı boyunca pek çok kez Fransa Bilimler Akademisi ve Fransa Jeoloji Kurumu dergilerinde yazılar yazan Çihaçov ölümünden önce Fransa Bilimler Akademisi'ne 100 bin Frank bağışlanmasını vasiyet etmiş ve bu vasiyeti bizzat kendi el yazısıyla noter huzurunda kaleme almıştır.

The route number of buses in Melbourne can tell a little about the route's operator, area served and even its history.

Route numbering was a reflection of the designated zonal area used during the 1980s. Areas were referred to as "Neighbourhood Zones". However, as part of the "Grow or Go" policies, route numbers across the bus network were affected. There are no two-digit route numbers – these are used exclusively by trams.

150–199, 400–899: These routes are run by private companies. Most are found in the middle and outer suburbs, where they provide feeders to railway stations and provide local travel.
200–399: These routes were former government-run routes (Melbourne & Metropolitan Tramways Board and then MetBus). They are found mostly in inner suburbs such as Footscray/Sunshine, Elsternwick-Brighton, Clifton Hill and Port Melbourne. Routes in the Doncaster/Templestowe area also have these numbers due to a Tramways board takeover after the area's private operator collapsed. In the 1990s all MetBus routes were put out to private franchise. Until August 2013, these services were operated by Melbourne Bus Link and National Bus Company. All of these services were taken over by Transdev Melbourne, which were since taken over by Kinetic Melbourne
900 series: Historically these route numbers were used by Victorian Railways, who ran buses co-ordinated with trains on some routes. Routes with these numbers have either been abolished or incorporated into other routes. The 900 series is now used for the high frequency SmartBus services, which are mostly cross-town and orbital routes.

USS Susan B. Anthony (AP-72) was a turbo-electric ocean liner,  Santa Clara, of the Grace Steamship Company that was built in 1930.  Santa Clara was turned over to the War Shipping Administration (WSA) on 28 February 1942 and operated by Grace Lines as agent for WSA as a troop ship making voyages to the South Pacific. The ship was chartered to the Navy on 7 August 1942 for operation as a United States Navy transport ship.  The ship was sunk 7 June 1944 off Normandy by a mine while cruising through a swept channel with all 2,689 people aboard being saved.

Building and civilian service
The New York Shipbuilding Corporation of Camden, New Jersey completed the ship in March 1930 and named her the SS Santa Clara.

Santa Clara had six water tube boilers with a combined heating surface of  and a working pressure of 300 lbf/in2. Santa Clara was turbo-electric: her boilers supplied steam to two turbo generators which fed current to electric motors connected to her twin propeller shafts. General Electric made her turbo generators and propulsion motors, and her power output was rated at 2,660 NHP

Santa Clara gave more than a decade of civilian service.  Notable passengers included Walt Disney and his staff in 1941 had been in Chile researching for their film The Three Caballeros.  They left Valparaíso on the Santa Clara on 4 October and reached New York on 20 October.

World War II
On 28 February 1942 Santa Clara was delivered at New York to the War Shipping Administration (WSA) by Grace Lines with that line operating the ship as a WSA transport allocated to Army transportation requirements under a general agency agreement. On 11 March the agreement terms were changed to bareboat charter by WSA.

WSA troopship
The ship was converted from commercial configuration by Robins Dry Dock & Repair Company in New York in late February. During this period Santa Clara is shown as being in the Pacific and in at least one large convoy, BT-201, departing New York on 4 March and arriving Brisbane on 6 April 1942. During that voyage the ship had stopped at Bora Bora on the way to Australia and Melbourne, Townsville and Wellington before returning to San Francisco on 11 May 1942. Santa Clara returned to the South Pacific departing San Francisco on 26 May destined for Auckland and Bora Bora before crossing the Pacific to Buenaventura, Colombia and then transiting the Panama Canal on 9 July bound for New York. On 7 August 1942 Santa Clara was delivered to the Navy at New York on a sub bareboat charter basis.

Navy service
After delivery to the Navy  Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation's New York yard converted Santa Clara for Navy troop transport service. The Navy renamed the ship after the women's suffrage and women's rights campaigner Susan B. Anthony, making her one of the few Naval vessels named after a woman. She was commissioned on 7 September 1942 as USS Susan B. Anthony, with the designation AP-72, under the command of Captain Henry Hartley.

Invasion of North Africa, 1942
After almost a month of drills and exercises in the lower Chesapeake Bay, the transport — carrying troops and equipment — left the bay on 23 October for Operation Torch, the Allied invasion of North Africa. At the end of a 15-day crossing, she reached the transport area off Mehdia, French Morocco. Early the next morning, on 8 November, the Northern Attack Group opened the assault on Mehdia and Port Lyautey. Despite the general difficulties encountered in handling landing craft, she disembarked her troops and unloaded their equipment in relatively good order. She stayed in the area for a week before sailing on the 15th for Safi, Morocco to unload the rest of her cargo. On 18 November she left Safi for Norfolk, Virginia, and arrived at Hampton Roads on the last day of the month.

Over the next seven months Susan B. Anthony made three voyages bringing troops and supplies across the Atlantic to North Africa;  the first to Casablanca and the remainder to Oran, Algeria.

Invasion of Sicily, 1943
After a brief voyage to the Gulf of Arzeu ferrying men and equipment, she returned to Oran on 25 June 1943 to prepare for the Allied invasion of Sicily. She embarked men and loaded material on 30 June-1 July, refueled on the 2nd, and left Oran three days later.

Anthony approached the coast of Sicily on the 9th near the town of Scoglitti. She spent the early hours of the next day landing troops and equipment. By 0435 hrs enemy aircraft were attacking the ships of the assault force. Bombs fell close to Anthony but she emerged with only minor damage from bomb fragments. Just before 0600 hrs she started toward the inshore anchorage, but withdrew after shore batteries fired on her. About four hours later she was able to enter the anchorage and send her salvage crew to aid broached and disabled landing craft.

Through that day and the next she came under repeated air attacks. Just after 2200 hrs on the 11th a twin-engine plane commenced an attack run at her, but by the time it had closed within , her anti-aircraft guns had shot it down in flames. Less than 10 minutes later another enemy bomber met a similar fate.

Late in the afternoon of 12 July Susan B. Anthony left for Oran. There she loaded prisoners; sailed for the US; and reached New York on 3 August 1943.

Atlantic convoys, 1943–44
For the next 10 months Anthony crossed and recrossed the Atlantic moving soldiers and cargo between various ports in the US, England, Iceland, Northern Ireland and Scotland in preparation for Operation Overlord, the cross-channel invasion of Europe at Normandy. On these voyages she visited ports including Belfast, Northern Ireland; Holy Loch, Gourock, and Glasgow in Scotland; Hvalfjörður and Reykjavík, Iceland; Mumbles and Milford Haven in Wales, and Newport.

Sinking off Normandy, 7 June 1944

Early in the morning of 7 June 1944, while transporting soldiers of the 90th Infantry Division through a swept channel off Normandy en route to Utah Beach, Susan B. Anthony struck a mine that exploded under her number 4 hold. Immediately she lost all power, and her rudder went hard left and stuck. By 0805 hrs, holds numbers 4 and 5 were shipping water badly, and the ship took on an 8° list to starboard. In an effort to save his ship, the commanding officer, Commander TL Gray, USNR, ordered the embarked soldiers to move to the port side. This human ballast soon brought Anthony back to an even keel.

At 0822 hrs fleet tug  came alongside, prepared to tow the paralyzed Anthony to shallow water. However, fires soon erupted in her engine and fire rooms, and she began to settle more rapidly. The captain now concluded that the ship was lost and ordered her abandoned. With Pinto and two destroyers alongside, the troops were evacuated expeditiously and without resorting to lifeboats and rafts. Anthonys crew followed closely behind the soldiers. By 0905 hrs, the main deck was awash at the stern and she was listing badly. The last member of the salvage crew hit the water at about 1000 hrs, with Commander Gray soon following.

At 1010 hrs Susan B. Anthony sank about 10 miles (16 km) from the French coast at a depth of 70 feet (20 m). No one was killed, and few of the 45 wounded were seriously hurt. All 2,689 people aboard were saved, which the Guinness Book of World Records lists as the largest rescue of people without loss of life.  Samuel Tankersley Williams, then a brigadier general serving as assistant division commander of the 90th Infantry Division, received the Soldier's Medal for non-combat heroism in recognition of his efforts to evacuate the ship.  Even though he didn't know how to swim, Williams personally braved smoke, heat, and flames to search the ship and ensure that no one was left behind.  Susan B. Anthony was struck from the Naval Vessel Register on 29 July 1944.

Honors
Susan B. Anthony was awarded three service stars for World War II service.

Frederick Edwin Smith, 1st Earl of Birkenhead,  (12 July 1872 – 30 September 1930) was a British Conservative politician and barrister who attained high office in the early 20th century, in particular as Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain. He was a skilled orator, noted for his staunch opposition to Irish nationalism, his wit, pugnacious views, and hard living and drinking. He is perhaps best remembered today as Winston Churchill's greatest personal and political friend until Birkenhead's death aged 58 from pneumonia caused by cirrhosis of the liver.

Early life and schooling
Smith was born at 38 Pilgrim Street, Birkenhead in Cheshire, the eldest son and second of five surviving children of Frederick Smith (1845–1888) and Elizabeth (1842–1928), daughter of Edwin Taylor a rate collector, of Birkenhead. His father had joined the family business as an estate agent, later becoming a barrister and local Tory politician. Frederick Smith senior died at the age of forty-three, only a month after being elected mayor of Birkenhead.

Smith was educated first at a dame school in Birkenhead, then at Sandringham School in Southport (where he announced, at the age of ten, his ambition to become lord chancellor), and then, having failed the entrance exam for Harrow School, at Birkenhead School (1887–1889).

Oxford
Smith won a scholarship to University College, Liverpool, where he spent four terms (a fact he subsequently suppressed).

He won a scholarship to Wadham College, Oxford, in 1891. Smith made his name as an Oxford "swell", distinguishing himself by his dark good looks, his energy, his unashamed ambition and his scathing wit. He was the dominant figure of a group of Wadham contemporaries including the athlete C. B. Fry, the future Liberal politician John Simon, and the Liberal economist Francis Hirst. Between them they dominated both the rugby field and the Oxford Union Society.

Smith was already active in national politics as a Tory speaker in the July 1892 general election. Announced initially as his father's son, he spoke all over Lancashire, stirring up Orange opinion against the Liberal policy of Irish home rule.

He obtained a Second Class in Classical Mods before switching to Law. He often debated against Hilaire Belloc at the Oxford Union, where a bust of him now stands, and became President in Trinity term 1894. By massive last-minute cramming he graduated with a first class BA degree in law in 1895.

To his disappointment, he only obtained a Second in his Bachelor of Civil Law degree. In 1896 he won the Vinerian law scholarship and was elected a fellow of Merton College (1896–9), and also a lecturership at Oriel College. The F.E. Smith Memorial Mooting Prizes nowadays commemorate him at Merton. In later life his depth of legal learning often surprised critics.

Smith added to his Oxford reputation in May 1897, when he went to see the Prince of Wales open the new Oxford Town Hall.  A detachment of the Metropolitan Police Mounted Branch had been drafted in to reinforce the small Oxford City Police force against a large demonstration of university undergraduates. The Metropolitan police, who were unused to boisterous Oxford undergraduates, attacked them with batons, causing several serious injuries. The crowd unhorsed and trampled one policeman. Smith took no part in the disorder, but was arrested when he tried to rescue his college servant, who was being manhandled by the police. Smith became the first prisoner in the police station in the new Town Hall. Before being locked in, Smith raised his hands for silence and declared "I have great pleasure in declaring this cell open". He was tried for obstructing the police in the lawful execution of their duty, but was found not guilty after defending himself in court.

Career as a barrister
Having eaten his dinners at Gray's Inn and passed his bar finals with distinction in the summer of 1899, Smith was called to the Bar and finally left Oxford, and quickly built up a brilliant and lucrative practice on the Northern Circuit, initially basing himself in Liverpool.

Formidable style & high-profile court cases

Smith rapidly acquired a reputation as a formidable advocate, first in Liverpool and then, after his election to Parliament in 1906, in London. He was junior counsel during the prosecution of John McKeever tried at Liverpool Assizes for the murder of the Protestant activist John Kensit. Although McKeever was acquitted, Smith kept the weapon, a file or chisel and a photograph of where the incident took place in his chambers.

In 1907 he was asked to give an opinion on a proposed libel action by the Lever Brothers against newspapers owned by Lord Northcliffe concerning the latter's allegations of a conspiracy to raise the price of soap by means of a 'soap trust'. He checked into the Savoy and, after working all night reading a pile of papers nearly four feet thick and consuming a bottle of champagne and two dozen oysters, Smith wrote a one-sentence opinion: "There is no answer to this action in libel, and the damages must be enormous". The newspapers subsequently paid Lever £50,000, more than four times the previous record for a defamation action or out-of-court published settlement in the country.

In February 1908, Smith was made a King's Counsel by Lord Loreburn, on the same day as his friend and rival from Wadham College, future Home Secretary Sir John Simon. At the Bar, he became one of the best known and most highly paid barristers in the country, making over £10,000 per year before the First World War. His spending was commensurate with this income even after he took less well-paid government positions in later years, something of which he would bitterly complain. Part of his income funded the purchase of a country house, The Cottage at Charlton, Northamptonshire, in 1907. The house was greatly enlarged in 1911–1912.

In one of the best-known cases in which Smith was involved he successfully defended Ethel le Neve, mistress of Hawley Harvey Crippen ("Dr Crippen") against a charge of murder. Le Neve was accused of killing Crippen's wife. Crippen was tried separately and convicted.

Member of Parliament

Ambitious to enter Parliament, Smith cultivated the local Tory boss Archibald Salvidge.

In 1903, Smith gave a dazzling speech in Liverpool in support of Joseph Chamberlain, who was campaigning for Tariff Reform. On the strength of this, he was selected three months later as candidate for the working-class constituency of Walton division. He campaigned as the champion of hard-drinking, patriotic working men (Liberals tended to favour temperance and more pacific foreign policy) and in the 1906 election he narrowly held the seat despite the national Liberal landslide. He held the seat until the redrawing of boundaries in 1918.

He attracted attention by a brilliant maiden speech, "I Warn the Government..." After this speech, Tim Healy, the Irish Nationalist, a master of parliamentary invective, sent Smith a note, "I am old, and you are young, but you have beaten me at my own game." In his maiden speech he argued that advocating tariffs had not hurt the Tories at the recent election. Smith also opposed the Trade Disputes Act 1906 arguing that intimidatory picketing should not be allowed. The Conservative leadership, unwilling to antagonise organised labour, did not oppose the Act very hard.

Smith did not support restriction on the powers of the House of Lords, fearing that tyranny could result from an unchecked unicameral parliament.

He was soon a prominent leader of the Unionist wing of the Conservative Party, especially in the planned Ulster resistance to Irish Home Rule. He attended the Blenheim Palace rally on 27 July 1912, at which Bonar Law advocated forcible resistance. From the signing of the Ulster Covenant in September 1912 onwards, he was often at Edward Carson's side on horseback, hence the derisive nickname "Galloper Smith".

A vociferous opponent of the Disestablishment of the Welsh part of the Church of England, he called the Welsh Disestablishment Bill "a bill which has shocked the conscience of every Christian community in Europe". This prompted G. K. Chesterton to write a satirical poem, "Antichrist, Or the Reunion of Christendom: An Ode", which asked if Breton sailors, Russian peasants and Christians evicted by the Turks would know or care of what happened to the Anglican Church of Wales, and answered the question with the line "Chuck it, Smith". The bill was approved by Parliament under the provisions of the Parliament Act 1911, but was stalled by the outbreak of the First World War. When it was finally implemented in 1920, Smith was part of the Lloyd George Coalition that did so.

First World War
Smith had joined the Territorial Army by commission into the Queen's Own Oxfordshire Hussars, in which Churchill was already an officer, in 1913, and was a captain in the regiment before the outbreak of the First World War. On its outbreak he was placed in charge of the Government's Press Bureau, with rank of full colonel and responsibility for newspaper censorship. He was not very successful in this role, and in 1914–1915 served in France as a staff officer with the Indian Corps with ultimate temporary rank of lieutenant-colonel. He and his successor as 'recording officer' (a Colonel Merewether) later collaborated on an official history entitled The Indian Corps in France (published 1917).

In May 1915, he was appointed Solicitor General by H. H. Asquith and knighted. He soon after (in October 1915) succeeded his friend Sir Edward Carson as Attorney General, with the right to attend Cabinet. Early in 1916 he was briefly placed under military arrest for arriving at Boulogne without a pass, and had to be 'appeased' by a meeting with General Sir Douglas Haig.

As Attorney General, it was his responsibility to lead the prosecution for the Crown in major cases such as the trial in 1916 of the Irish nationalist Sir Roger Casement for treason. Sir Roger had been captured after landing from a Kaiserliche Marine U-boat on Banna Strand in Tralee Bay in north County Kerry, south-west Ireland, just a few days before the Easter Rising in late April 1916. His prosecution of Casement (and Wheeldon in 1917) contributed to Smith's reputation as a spectacular advocate at the time.

Smith was made a baronet in 1918. Following abolition of the Walton seat in constituency boundary changes, Smith was returned at the December 1918 general election for neighbouring West Derby Division, only to be elevated to the House of Lords two months later.

Postwar Coalition: Lord Chancellor

In 1919, he was created Baron Birkenhead, of Birkenhead in the County of Chester following his appointment as Lord Chancellor by Lloyd George. At the age of 47, he was the youngest Lord Chancellor since Lord Cowper in 1707 and possibly since Judge Jeffreys (John Simon would have been younger had he accepted the post in 1915). The Morning Post commented that his appointment as Attorney-General had been amusing but that his further promotion was "carrying a joke beyond the limits of pleasantry", while the King urged Lloyd George to reconsider. Birkenhead proved an excellent Lord Chancellor, but tales of his drunkenness begin from this time, very likely as he grew bored with the job and as it dawned on him that he had probably ruled himself out from the premiership by accepting a peerage.

That year, in the House of Lords debate on the Amritsar Massacre, he courageously denounced Tories who declared General Dyer (the responsible officer) a hero. He played a key role in the passage of several key legal reforms, including the Law of Property Act 1922, which began the reform of English land law which was to come to fruition in the mid-1920s. He also unsuccessfully championed a reform of the divorce laws, which he judged caused great misery and which favoured the wealthy.

Despite his Unionist background, Smith played an important role in the negotiations that led to the signature of the Anglo-Irish Treaty in 1921, which led to the formation of the Irish Free State the following year. Much of the treaty was drafted by Smith. His support for this, and his warm relations with the Irish nationalist leaders Arthur Griffith and Michael Collins, angered some of his former Unionist associates, notably Sir Edward Carson. Upon signing the Treaty he remarked to Collins, "I may have just signed my political death warrant", to which Collins dryly and with prescient accuracy replied, "I have just signed my actual death warrant". Collins was killed by opponents of the treaty eight months after the signing, during the Irish Civil War.

Also in 1921, he was responsible for the House of Lords rejecting a proposal, put forward by Frederick Alexander Macquisten, MP for Argyllshire, to criminalise lesbianism. During the debate, Birkenhead argued that 999 women out of a thousand had "never even heard a whisper of these practices".

Smith was created Viscount Birkenhead, of Birkenhead in the County of Chester, in the 1921 Birthday Honours, then Viscount Furneaux, of Charlton in the County of Northampton, and Earl of Birkenhead in 1922. By 1922 Birkenhead and Churchill had become the leading figures of the Lloyd George Coalition. The Anglo-Irish Treaty, the attempt to go to war with Turkey over Chanak (which was later vetoed by the governments of the Dominions) and a general whiff of moral and financial corruption which had come to surround the Coalition were all hallmarks of his tenure in office.

A scandal erupted in 1922 when it became known that Lloyd George, through the agency of Maundy Gregory, had awarded honours and titles such as a baronetcy to rich businessmen in return for cash in the range of £10,000 and more. At an earlier meeting before Parliament broke up for the summer, and more famously at the Carlton Club meeting in October 1922, Birkenhead's hectoring of the junior ministers and backbenchers was one of the factors leading to the withdrawal of support from the Coalition.

Out of office: 1922–24

Like many of the senior members of the Coalition, Birkenhead did not hold office in the Bonar Law and Baldwin governments of 1922–24. Unlike the others Birkenhead was rude and open in his contempt for the new governments. He bore no grudge against Bonar Law but criticised Leslie Wilson and Lord Curzon. He sneered that Wilson and Sir George Younger were "the cabin boys" who had taken over the ship, he referred to Lords Salisbury and Selborne as "the Dolly Sisters" after two starlets of the era and remarked that the new Cabinet was one of "second-class brains", to which came the reply from Lord Robert Cecil that this was better than "second-class characters". He remarked that he had lost the Woolsack but was still "captain of [his] own soul" to which a wag retorted that this was "a small command of which no-one will want to deprive him".

In the House of Lords, on 7 December 1922, he read out a letter dated 15 February 1922 in which the Greek leader Dimitrios Gounaris had begged the Foreign Secretary Lord Curzon (who had deserted the Coalition in its final hours and thus retained his office under Bonar Law) for British help in her war against Turkey. Since then, Gounaris had been executed as a scapegoat for the catastrophic Greek defeat. Birkenhead claimed that he had no knowledge of this letter, a claim which was soon echoed by Lloyd George and other leading coalitionists Austen Chamberlain, Robert Horne and Worthington-Evans. The accusations, if true, might have forced Curzon's resignation and jeopardised the ongoing negotiation of the Treaty of Lausanne. Cabinet Secretary Maurice Hankey located the letter, and the reply urging Gounaris to "hold on", which Curzon had circulated to the Cabinet, and which Birkenhead had initialled as read. On 11 December Birkenhead was forced to apologise ("frigidly received" by the Lords, according to "The Times") and Lady Curzon retaliated by cutting him at a ball, but as she remarked to her husband in a letter, he was "too drunk to notice" the snub.

In May 1923, Stanley Baldwin succeeded Bonar Law as Prime Minister. He remarked to his new Cabinet, referring to Birkenhead's exclusion, that they were "a Cabinet of faithful husbands" – this referred to Birkenhead's general character rather than simply his marital infidelities.

Even a famous speech, the Rectorial Address to the University of Glasgow on 7 November 1923, in which Birkenhead told undergraduates that the world still offered "glittering prizes" to those with "stout hearts and sharp swords", now seemed out of kilter with the less aggressive and more self-consciously moral style of politics advocated by the new generation of Conservative politicians such as Stanley Baldwin and Edward Wood, the future Lord Halifax. Birkenhead regarded the League of Nations as idealistic nonsense, and thought that international relations should be guided by "self-interest", lest Britain decline like Imperial Spain. Rather, he believed that the power of nations would still be determined by their military strength.

By this time Birkenhead was regarded with distaste by much of the grassroots Conservative Party. J. C. C. Davidson reported back to Central Office (18 November 1923) on his recent re-adoption as candidate for Hemel Hempstead that many members were unwilling to support him without an assurance that he would not support Birkenhead's return to the Cabinet, lest this cost local votes at the upcoming election. He commented that this was proof that Puritanism was deep in the English blood, and not just in that of Nonconformist chapel-goers. Neville Chamberlain recorded in his diary (18 November 1923) that Birkenhead had "so often and so deeply shocked the moral sense of the country by his drunkenness and loose living character that our Govt which rests largely on public confidence in our character would be seriously tarnished by association with such a man".

After the December 1923 General Election, at which Baldwin lost his majority and a hung Parliament was returned, Birkenhead briefly intrigued for another Lloyd George coalition government. In order to discourage them from associating with Lloyd George, Baldwin quickly invited former coalitionists Austen Chamberlain, Birkenhead and Balfour to join the Shadow Cabinet. Birkenhead persuaded his friend Churchill to stand (unsuccessfully, as an independent "Constitutionalist") in the March 1924 Westminster Abbey by-election. This was part of Churchill's move back towards rejoining the Conservative Party.

A 1924 entry in Evelyn Waugh's diary states that an English High Court judge, presiding in a sodomy case, sought advice on sentencing from Lord Birkenhead. "Could you tell me," he asked, "what do you think one ought to give a man who allows himself to be buggered?" Birkenhead replied without hesitation, "Oh, thirty shillings or two pounds; whatever you happen to have on you."

Personal life and affair
Smith married Margaret Eleanor Furneaux, daughter of classical scholar Henry Furneaux, in April 1901.  They had three children:

 Lady Eleanor Furneaux Smith (born 7 August 1902, died 20 October 1945)
 Frederick Winston Furneaux Smith, 2nd Earl of Birkenhead (born 7 December 1907, died 10 June 1975)
 Lady Pamela Margaret Elizabeth Smith (born 16 May 1914, died 7 January 1982), married Michael Berry, Baron Hartwell.

In around 1919, Birkenhead began an affair with Mona Dunn, the then seventeen year old daughter of the Canadian financier James Hamet Dunn, a friend of Lord Beaverbrook's (it is unclear how much her father knew of the affair). Beaverbrook, in so far as can be discerned from the limited surviving evidence in letters, appears to have provided a cover for sexual liaisons between the two of them, and for womanising by others of their social circle. She appears to have been genuinely in love with Birkenhead, whereas he was mildly fond of her but regarded her as no more than a mistress. The affair attracted the fury of Birkenhead's daughter, a friend of Mona's, a state of affairs likened by Campbell to the relations between Lloyd George, his mistress Frances Stevenson, and his daughter Megan.

In 1926 Arnold Bennett published a novel, Lord Raingo, about a self-made millionaire who becomes a peer and a Cabinet Minister (under a Prime Minister clearly based on Lloyd George), and who keeps a young mistress. The character was actually largely based on Lord Rhondda and Beaverbrook himself. Birkenhead gave an angry interview to the Daily Mail in which he criticised both the novel and the recent practice of Colonel Repington, Colonel House and Margot Asquith in publishing political secrets so close in time to the events. Bennett replied that the character was not based on any single person and anyway that it was not for Birkenhead, who had recently published a potboiler called Famous Trials, to criticise others for writing books to make money. The two men, who were both members of The Other Club, remained on friendly terms.

Mona Dunn had married "Bunny" Tattersall in February 1925. She had a daughter, then died in Paris aged 26 on 19 December 1928, officially of peritonitis. The original text (1983) of John Campbell's biography states that there is no evidence for the tales that she died of a failed abortion. However, later editions contain a  footnote adding that it had since come to the author's attention that her husband had been paid off by Birkenhead to enter into a marriage of convenience with her as a cover for their continued affair, and that, the affair now over, she then fled to Paris with a third man, where she died of "appendicitis and drink" (inverted commas in the original). Birkenhead wrote a poem in her memory, which Beaverbrook declined to publish in the Daily Express at the time, but eventually published three decades later in his life of Sir James Dunn.

Secretary of State for India: 1924–28
Despite winning a large majority at the 1924 election, Baldwin formed a broad new (second) government by appointing former coalitionists such as Birkenhead, Austen Chamberlain and former Liberal Winston Churchill to senior Cabinet posts; this was to discourage them from associating with Lloyd George to revive the 1916-22 Coalition. Birkenhead and Chamberlain lobbied Baldwin to reappoint another former coalitionist, Robert Horne, to the Exchequer, but Baldwin refused and appointed Churchill instead.

From 1924 to 1928 Birkenhead served as Secretary of State for India. His views on pre-partition India's independence movement were gloomy. He thought India's Hindu–Muslim religious divide insurmountable and sought to block advances in native participation in provincial governments that had been granted by the 1919 Montagu–Chelmsford Reforms. His parliamentary private secretary recalled much time ostensibly on India Office business seemed to be spent playing golf. It was in his government role that in October 1927 he unveiled the Neuve-Chapelle Indian Memorial to Indian Army soldiers of no known grave killed on the Western Front in the 1914–18 War.

Birkenhead endorsed his old political opponent H. H. Asquith, rather than his Cabinet colleague Lord Cave, in the 1925 University of Oxford Chancellor election. He wrote to The Times on 19 May, describing Asquith as the "greatest living Oxonian", but his support may have done more harm than good, because of his association with the discredited Lloyd George Coalition, and because of his open scepticism both of religion and of the League of Nations. It was quipped that Asquith was "a warming-pan" for Birkenhead's views (a learned Oxford joke, referring to the legend that the Old Pretender had been an impostor baby rather than a rightful heir to the throne). Lord Cave was elected.

He was engaged outside the office in negotiating for the government with the Trades Union Congress to try to avert the 1926 General Strike and he strongly supported the 1927 Trades Disputes Act which required union members to contract into the political levies.

Baldwin remained suspicious of the activities of Birkenhead and the former coalitionists. Beatrice Webb recorded (diary 14 March 1928) him remarking "the future Coalition" when he saw Churchill, Lloyd George and Birkenhead chatting at the end of a state dinner. Lord Cave resigned as Lord Chancellor early in 1928. Birkenhead apparently did not want to return to his old job, but neither did Baldwin offer it to him. According to Neville Chamberlain's diary (28 March 1928), this was because "he might be seen drunk in the street" (Lord Hailsham was appointed instead). Birkenhead retired from the Cabinet in October 1928 to make money in business.

In 1928 he was appointed Knight Grand Commander of the Order of the Star of India.

Later life and assessments
Birkenhead's increasingly pompous oratory caused David Low to caricature him in the 1920s as "Lord Burstinghead". After retiring from politics, he became Rector of the University of Aberdeen, a director of Tate & Lyle, a director of Imperial Chemical Industries, and High Steward of the University of Oxford. In a 1983 biography review, William Camp – who had written a 1960 biography of the man – opined that "F.E. was the quintessential male chauvinist who, almost with his dying breath, dragged himself to the Lords in July 1930 to attack the right of peeresses to take their seats."

Birkenhead wrote a series of articles (later republished in Last Essays: 1930) about "The peril to India", in which he criticised the Indian Nationalist leaders as "a collection ... of very inferior Kerenskis" and asserted that it was widely accepted that without British rule India would collapse into anarchy. He attacked the Irwin Declaration as "so ambiguous that it is impossible to select from it any clear and unambiguous proposal".

In the opinion of Winston Churchill, who was a friend: "He had all the canine virtues in a remarkable degree – courage, fidelity, vigilance, love of chase." As for Margot Asquith, who was not a friend, she thought: "F. E. Smith is very clever, but sometimes his brains go to his head." Of Birkenhead's loyalty, Churchill added: "If he was with you on Monday, he would be the same on Tuesday. And on Thursday, when things looked blue, he would still be marching forward with strong reinforcements."

Gilbert Frankau recalled in his own autobiography Self Portrait, that in 1928 Sir Thomas Horder confided: "Birkenhead's pure eighteenth-century. He belongs to the days of Fox and Pitt. Physically, he has all the strength of our best yeoman stock. Mentally, he's a colossus. But he'll tear himself to pieces by the time he's sixty."

In 1930 he published his utopian The World in 2030 with airbrush illustrations by E. McKnight Kauffer. The book was the subject of considerable controversy as several passages were alleged to have been copied from earlier works by J. B. S. Haldane.

Birkenhead died in London in 1930, aged 58, from pneumonia caused by cirrhosis of the liver. After cremation at Golders Green Crematorium, his ashes were buried in the parish churchyard at Charlton, Northamptonshire.

Screen portrayals
As "Lord Birkenhead", he is dramatised in the film Chariots of Fire, as an official of the British Olympic Committee. He is played by actor Nigel Davenport.
