***Hail Satin*** is an album by the Dee Gees, a side project of American rock band Foo Fighters. It was released on July 17, 2021, for Record Store Day. The album consists of five cover versions of songs originally written and recorded by members of the Gibb family (four from the Bee Gees and one Andy Gibb solo record) and five live versions of songs from the Foo Fighters' 2021 album *Medicine at Midnight* on its B-side. The name "Dee Gees" is a play on both the Bee Gees and Dave Grohl's initials; the album title is a play on satin (a common fabric of the disco era) and the phrase "hail Satan".

## Background

Foo Fighters previously performed Andy Gibb's 1978 song "Shadow Dancing" during Linda Perry's Rock 'n' Relief livestream and the Bee Gees' "You Should Be Dancing" on Jo Whiley's Sofa Session show on BBC Radio 2. Dave Grohl said about the recording of "You Should Be Dancing": "I have never, ever in my life sung like that, but it was the easiest song I have ever sung in my entire life! I sang the song, and it was like six minutes and I was done. I should have been singing like this for the last 25 years!"

title: Warrumbungle National Park

abstract: Warrumbungle National Park is a heritage listed national park located in the Orana region of New South Wales, Australia. The national park is located approximately 550 kilometres (340 mi) northwest of Sydney and contained within 23,311 hectares. The park attracts approximately 35,000 visitors per annum. The national park is based on the geographical Warrumbungle Mountain Range, sometimes shortened to the Warrumbungles, and thus the park name is often heard in the plural. The park lies within the Pilliga Important Bird Area, so identified by BirdLife International because of its importance for a range of woodland bird species, many of which are threatened. Warrumbungle National Park was added to the Australian National Heritage List in December 2006. On 4 July 2016, the park was the first within Australia to be certified as a Dark Sky Park by the International Dark Sky Association.

# Warrumbungle National Park

**Warrumbungle National Park** is a heritage listed national park located in the Orana region of New South Wales, Australia. The national park is located approximately 550 kilometres (340 mi) northwest of Sydney and contained within 23,311 hectares (57,600 acres). The park attracts approximately 35,000 visitors per annum.

The national park is based on the geographical Warrumbungle Mountain Range, sometimes shortened to the Warrumbungles, and thus the park name is often heard in the plural. The park lies within the Pilliga Important Bird Area, so identified by BirdLife International because of its importance for a range of woodland bird species, many of which are threatened.

Warrumbungle National Park was added to the Australian National Heritage List in December 2006.

On 4 July 2016, the park was the first within Australia to be certified as a Dark Sky Park by the International Dark Sky Association.

## Access

The nearest towns to the park are Baradine, Coonabarabran, Coonamble, Gilgandra, Gulargambone, and Tooraweenah. Access via Coonabarabran to the east is by 27 kilometres (17 mi) of sealed road called the John Renshaw Parkway, built in 1966. Via Coonamble to the west, access is by a 57 kilometres (35 mi) long road with some gravel.

The park is contained within three local government areas: Warrumbungle Shire to the east, Gilgandra Shire to the south and Coonamble Shire to the west.

## Features

Located within the large area of temperate savanna grasslands the park incorporates the most spectacular part of the Warrumbungle mountains, a region of past volcanic activity with unusual lava formations. Some of the most well-known rock formations include Belougery Spire, Bluff Mountain, Mount Exmouth (tallest mountain in the park), The Breadknife, Split Rock, Fans Horizon and Crater Bluff.

There are many scenic bushwalks and both rock climbing and abseiling are popular. Though the park preserved habitat for koalas in the past, a massive 2013 fire decimated the koala population; none are thought to have survived.

Located immediately adjacent to the national park is the Siding Spring Observatory. The observatory, officially opened in 1965, was constructed on the boundary of the park partly because the park provided a light-free environment. This scientific facility consists of several internationally important telescopes and has considerable socio-economic importance to the local Coonabarabran community.

## Facilities

There are four main campsites. All camping in the park is only permitted after obtaining a permit. There is a visitors centre for bookings and keys to a number of huts. The park also caters for large school groups. There are free electric barbecues available however firewood is not supplied or to be collected within park grounds.

## History

A proposal to reserve the more scenic parts of the Warrumbungle Range as the *Warrumbungle National Monument* was first initiated by the National Parks and Primitive Areas Council in 1936. The area was first proclaimed as a reserve in 1953. In 1967 management of the park was signed over to the National Parks and Wildlife Service. The construction of a network of walking tracks done by hand was headed by the parks first ranger, Carl Dow. The park was added to the list of the National Heritage in December 2006, in recognition of the park's importance as an extensive and spectacular geomorphological site with bold volcanic landforms that are unrivalled anywhere else in Australia; for its unique values as a transition zone between the arid western and wetter coastal zones; and its significance as an important refugium in inland south-east Australia.

## 2013 bushfire

In January 2013 about 80% of the national park was destroyed in a conflagration (thought to have been started by lightning) that burned much of the area surrounding the park as well as destroying dozens of homes. The visitor centre and museum were wiped out, as well as railings and viewing platforms throughout the park. The park was closed after the fire, but has since reopened, although some parts remain closed.

The national park was used as a filming location for the video for singer David Bowie's 1983 single "Let's Dance", centring on The Breadknife.

The Japanese anime "Adventures of the Little Koala" takes place within the shadow of The Breadknife.

Haitoglou's headquarters complex is located in Kalochori, a small village in Thessaloniki regional unit and consist of several production, warehouses and office facilities covering approximately 170,000m2.

## History

Haitoglou Bros was founded in 1924 by three brothers, Eleftherios, Konstantinos and Savvas Haitoglou who were Greek refugees originally from Ikonio, Asia Minor. In 1931, the company moved from a small workshop in the center of Thessaloniki to a larger facility in the outskirts of town and moved again in 1962 to Kalochori, Thessaloniki, where it is still headquartered. Haitoglou Bros expanded its sales to Southern Greece in the early 50s and the brand name Macedonian Halva was originally used to differentiate the product from competitive products made in other areas of Greece.

The company started exploring foreign markets in the 70s, taking advantage of the fact that it was then packing halva in metal tins, which were suitable for international transport, as well as of the fact that Greek immigrants in various countries had retained a taste for Greek delicacies. Haitoglou Bros first targeted the ethnic Greek markets in the Greek diaspora in Germany, the United States and Australia and then built upon its Greek origin and access to the ethnic communities to evolve to a multinational presence targeting healthy lifestyles in general.

title: Haitz's law

abstract: Haitz's law is an observation and forecast about the steady improvement, over many years, of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). It claims that every decade, the cost per lumen falls by a factor of 10, and the amount of light generated per LED package increases by a factor of 20, for a given wavelength (color) of light. It is considered the LED counterpart to Moore's law, which states that the number of transistors in a given integrated circuit doubles every 18 to 24 months. Both laws rely on the process optimization of the production of semiconductor devices.

# Haitz's law

**Haitz's law** is an observation and forecast about the steady improvement, over many years, of light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

It claims that every decade, the cost per lumen (unit of useful light emitted) falls by a factor of 10, and the amount of light generated per LED package increases by a factor of 20, for a given wavelength (color) of light. It is considered the LED counterpart to Moore's law, which states that the number of transistors in a given integrated circuit doubles every 18 to 24 months. Both laws rely on the process optimization of the production of semiconductor devices.

## History

Haitz's law is named after Roland Haitz (1935–2015), a scientist at Agilent Technologies among others. It was first presented to the larger public at Strategies in Light 2000, the first of a series of annual conferences organized by Strategies Unlimited. Besides the forecast of exponential development of cost per lumen and amount of light per package, the publication also forecast that the luminous efficacy of LED-based lighting could reach 200 lm/W (lumen per watt) in 2020, crossing 100 lm/W in 2010. This would be the case if enough industrial and government resources were spent for research on LED-lighting. More than 50% of the electricity consumption for lighting (20% of the totally consumed electrical energy) would be saved reaching 200 lm/W. This prospect and other stepping-stone applications of LEDs (e.g. mobile phone flash and LCD-backlighting) led to a massive investment in LED-research so that the LED efficacy did indeed cross 100 lm/W in 2010. If this trend continues, LEDs will become the most efficient light source by 2020.

The theoretical maximum for truncated blackbody white light source (at 5800K colour temperature with wavelengths restricted to the visible band of between 400nm and 700nm) is 251 lm/W. However, some "white" LEDs have achieved efficacies of over 300 lm/W.

## Developments

In 2010, Cree Inc., developed and marketed the XM-L LED that claimed 1000 lumens at 100 lm/W efficacy and 160 lm/W at 350 mA and 150 lm/W at 700 mA. They also claimed to have broken the 200 lm/W barrier in R&D with a prototype producing 208 lm at 350 mA. In May 2011, Cree announced another prototype with 231 lm/W efficacy at 350 mA. In March 2014, Cree announced another prototype with a record-breaking 303 lm/W efficacy at 350 mA.

In 2017, Philips Lighting started offering consumer LED lights with 200 lm/W efficacy in Dubai using LED filament technology, three years before what Haitz's law predicted.

# Wannian Temple (Mount Emei)

**Wannian Temple** (simplified Chinese: 万年寺; traditional Chinese: 萬年寺; pinyin: *Wànnián Sì*; lit. 'Ten Thousand Year Temple') is a Buddhist temple located at the foot of Camel Mountain Range of Mount Emei, in Emeishan City, Sichuan, China. It is one of the six earliest Buddhist temples on Mount Emei. The temple is situated at the foot of Camel Mountain Range, facing the Daping Temple (大坪寺; 'Flat Ground Temple'), Niuxin Temple (牛心寺; 'Cattle Heart Temple'), Shisun Summit (石笋峰; 'Stalagmite Summit') and Bomeng Summit (钵孟峰) in the front. Wannian Temple is known not only for the bronze statue of Samantabhadra, but also for the Beamless Brick Hall.

## History

### East Jin and Tang dynasties

Wannian Temple was first established by Huichi (慧持) in the East Jin dynasty (266–420), it was called "Puxian Temple" (普贤寺; 'Samantabhadra Temple') originally and changed to "Baishui Temple" (白水寺; 'White Water Temple') when it was reconstructed by Huitong (慧通) in 876 in the 3rd year of Qianfu period of the Tang dynasty (618–907). In the Kaiyuan period (713–741) of Emperor Xuanzong, poet Li Bai stayed in the Pilu Hall (毗卢殿) and wrote many poems while listening to the music played by Guangjun (广浚).

### Northern Song dynasty

In 980, in the reign of Emperor Taizong in the Northern Song dynasty (960–1127), Maozhen (茂真) restored the temple and cast a bronze statue of Samantabhadra in the temple. The temple was renamed "Baishui Puxian Temple" (白水普贤寺; 'White Water Samantabhadra Temple').

### Ming dynasty

In 1535, in the Jiajing era of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), Biechuan (别传) made three statues of Buddha in the temple. Destroyed by a large fire in the Wanli period (1573–1620), it was rebuilt by monks under the order of Wanli Emperor in 1601. And the Beamless Brick Hall (无梁砖殿) was added to the temple with a plaque inscribed by Wanli Emperor with Chinese characters of "Shengshou Wannian Temple" (圣寿万年寺; 'Temple of Longevity').

### Qing dynasty

In the fall when Mount Emei enjoys the best weather, the mount is decorated with colorful maple and ginkgo trees reflected on the green water lake. This poetic scenery was called "White Water in the Wind of Fall" (白水秋风) and acclaimed one of the ten best sceneries in Mount Emei by Qing dynasty scholar Tan Zhongyue (谭钟岳).

### Republic of China

In 1946, the temple was completely destroyed with only the Beamless Brick Hall remaining.

### People's Republic of China

After the founding of the PRC, the local government rebuilt the temple.

### Background

In 2014, NJPW and ROH formally forged a relationship, which saw them present the first War of the Worlds show on May 17, 2014, at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City, New York. The following year, War of the Worlds was held over two days at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and in 2016 it was expanded to a three-show tour with shows taking place in Dearborn, Michigan, Toronto, Ontario and New York City. The 2017 War of the Worlds tour was held from May 7 to 14. On May 22, ROH announced a second War of the Worlds tour, this time taking place in the United Kingdom, for which they and NJPW would be joined by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) and RPW. The three shows would take place on August 18 in London, August 19 in Liverpool and August 20 in Edinburgh.

### Storylines

The War of the Worlds UK tour featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.

On August 9, ROH announced their sole World Championship match of the tour, which pitted defending champion and Bullet Club member Cody against *Los Ingobernables de Japón* member Sanada.

On 8 June 2023, Erkan became the governor by a presidential decree by Erdoğan, becoming the first female head of the Turkish Central Bank.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan appointed Erkan as the new central bank governor on June 8, 2023, replacing Sahap Kavcioglu who served as governor since March 20, 2021. Under her leadership, the central bank turned away from Erdogan's imposition of low interest rates that had caused soaring inflation and turned away foreign investors in favor of increasing the rates to 45% from the previous 8.5%, which the bank said had stopped inflation by January 2024.

In late 2023 Erkan told a local newspaper that house prices in Istanbul are higher than Manhattan, so she chose to move in with her parents.

On 2 February, Erkan announced her resignation from the central bank following an article published in the newspaper *Sözcü* that said one of the bank's employees had been fired at the instigation of Erkan's father. Erkan called the report "a major reputation assassination campaign". The following day, she was removed from office by the President and replaced by then Deputy Governor Fatih Karahan.

# Halifax Island

**Halifax Island** is a small rocky island about 100 m (330 ft) from the mainland, near Lüderitz in Namibia. It is the third most important breeding site for African penguins in Namibia.

## History

Captain Charles C. Forsyth of the Cape of Good Hope Station was ordered to take possession of the Penguin Islands and Lüderitz Bay. Captain Forsyth proclaimed British sovereignty over the islands on 5 May 1866. He landed on Halifax Island two days later on HMS *Valorous* and erected a board claiming the island in the name of the British ruler. Philip Wodehouse leased the Penguin Islands in 1867 to De Pass, Spence & Co. and to Robert Granger until 1895. They were given exclusive rights to mine guano and hunt seals.

Penguin guano on the island was 120 feet (37 m) deep in the early 19th century and mining continued until 1949. The penguin population on the island has halved in the 30 years between 1970 and 2000. Houses and sheds used by guano miners and the local headman are currently in various stages of deterioration. The uninhabited buildings are now used by penguins for breeding. The Namibian Government's Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources currently manages the island and monitors the seabird population.

## Location

The island is visited by catamaran tours from Lüderitz. The island itself is out of bounds for the public, even though the catamarans are allowed to sail past the island to offer a view of the penguins.

## Fauna

The island is also home to colonies of Kelp gulls, with around 350 nests recorded in the summer of 2000. Their numbers are bolstered by the nearby dump in Lüderitz. Increase in gull population has been problematic to penguin eggs which are eaten by the gulls. Crowned cormorant, Greater crested tern and Hartlaub's gull are also found to breed in the island. A pilot project in May 2001 led to three African oystercatcher fledglings successfully introduced on the island. Cape cormorant and White-breasted cormorant are observed to roost on the island. Cape wagtail, Turnstone, Greater flamingo and Whimbrel have also been sighted in the island. Heaviside's dolphin are occasionally spotted in the bay. Brown fur seal sometimes visit to prey on the penguins.

# Hallo Vriendjes

**Hallo Vriendjes** **En Vriendinnetjes** or **Hello, Boys And Girls**, is the theme song of the worldwide known Dutch clown and acrobat duo Bassie & Adriaan performances and their long running television series.

The 1997 version of the song was a hit on the internet starting September 2014 and for that reason released as single. People from all over the world place themselves in front of a webcam and videotape their singing the theme song with or without the accompanying music.

## Forming

A demo version of this song was first heard during radio plays in 1984. From 1985 on every television season and shorty would carry a revised version titled "Hallo Vriendjes" as opening song and a version with altered text (*Dag Vriendjes* / *Bye, Boys*) would be heard during the ending credits. The short and mostly used version (23 seconds) would also open and end every performance in theaters and related events, always with the opening version as opening song and always with the ending version as ending song. The standard version is always the short version.

## Different versions

### 1985: 'Het Geheim Van De Schatkaart'

For *"Het Geheim Van De Schatkaart"* (The Secret Of The Treasure Map) the music is the same as with "De Verdwenen Kroon" and company but the text is slightly different. Arrangements by Aad Klaris.

### 1985: Standard version

From now on every performance and related event would open and end with this melancholic version, as well as the shorties produced for Belgian television and the tenth season *"Liedjes Uit Grootmoeders Tijd"* (Songs From Times Gone, 1995). Arrangements by Aad Klaris.

Also present on most CDs, cassettes and LPs released between 1985 and 1996.

### 1988: 'De Verdwenen Kroon', 'De Geheimzinnige Opdracht' (1992) and 'De Reis Vol Verrassingen' (1994)

The standard long version for the television seasons played on instruments including a flute. Arrangements by Aad Klaris.

### 1989: 'De Verzonken Stad' ("Greek version")

For the series *"De Verzonken Stad"* (The Sunken City) and one accompanieng CD (*"Radiostation No. 2 Vanuit Griekenland"* /  *"Radio Station No.2 From Greece"*, 1989-print) a Greek styled version was produced. Arrangements by Aad Klaris.

### 1994: Caribbean version

For the CD and Cassette release of the series' soundtrack *"De Reis Vol Verrassingen"* (The Journey Full Of Surprises) a remix in Caribbean style was produced as opening song. Arrangements by Aad Klaris.

### 1997: New standard version

Every performance from now on would open and end with a remix played on the flute. Arrangements by Bert Smorenburg.

In the series' remastering of 2010/2011 the short (standard) version would also be used for the television seasons.

Also present on all CDs and cassettes released since 1998.

### 2003: Series remastering

For the remastering of the complete series in 2003 one new version was made for (almost) all television seasons, played on instruments including the flute. Arrangements by Bert Smorenburg.

All versions used in the television series were replaced by the new version. Where the short version was used, the new short version would be the replacement.


title: Wayne Law

abstract: Wayne Lincoln Law is a former Welsh cricketer. Law was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm off break. He was born at Swansea, Glamorgan. Having played since his teens for Swansea Cricket Club, the Glamorgan Second XI since 1995, as well as having spent time on the Lord's groundstaff where he played for MCC Young Cricketers in 1996, Law eventually made his first-class debut for Glamorgan in 1997 against Oxford University, hitting his first ball of the match for four and eventually ending on 38 not out in Glamorgan's second-innings. This was his only first-class appearance that season, though he made his List A debut, playing in Glamorgan's final two fixtures of the 1997 AXA Life League against Surrey and Essex. During this season, Law also appeared once for Wales Minor Counties against Herefordshire in the Minor Counties Championship, while the following season he would make a single MCCA Knockout Trophy appearance for the club against the Warwickshire Cricket Board. His performances encouraged then Glamorgan coach Duncan Fletcher, who considered Law to have natural flair and graceful timing, to give him an extended run in the Glamorgan side the following season, following the retirement of Hugh Morris at the end of the 1997 season. Over the coming three seasons, he made a total of 22 further first-class appearances, the last of which came against Nottinghamshire in the 2000 County Championship. In total, he scored 883 runs at an average of 28.48, with a high score of 131. This innings of note came against Lancashire at Colwyn Bay in 1998. Though he struggled for consistency, he still made notable contributions to the Glamorgan cause, notably against Lancashire at Blackpool in 1999 when he held out against Muttiah Muralitharan for over four hours in making 53 in Glamorgan's second-innings, though Lancashire still won the game by 10 wickets. Law was utilised more in first-class cricket, making just nine further List A appearances following his debut in that format in 1997. He played his final List A match against Middlesex in the 2000 National League. Law struggled during the opportunities he was given in this format, scoring just 104 runs at an average of 11.55, with a high score of 24. Having failed to secure a regular place in the Glamorgan team during the 2000 season, Law was released by county at the end of that season.

# Natalie Hurst

**Natalie Hurst** (born 8 April 1983) is an Australian basketball player. She played junior basketball in Canberra and went on to play for the Canberra Capitals in the WNBL. With the Capitals, she won league championships in 1999/2000, 2001/2002, 2002/2003, 2005/2006, 2006/2007, 2008/2009 and 2009/2010. In 2011/2012, she played for the French club, Aix en Provence. She is a member of the Australia women's national basketball team, with her first national team cap in 2009. She won a gold medal in 2009 at the FIBA Oceania Women's Championships. She is a member of the 2012 national team.

## Personal

Hurst was born on 8 April 1983 in the Australian Capital Territory. She is 163 centimetres (5 ft 4 in) tall.

## Basketball

Hurst is a guard, specializing as a point guard. She played junior basketball in Canberra.

In June 2008, she played for the Launceston Tornadoes in the South East Australian Basketball League (SEABL) where she was the team's star player. In June 2008, she was suspended from basketball entirely for five weeks, with another five weeks applicable if the board received reports of further misconduct, for swearing at a referee. The incident occurred in a match between Somerset and Devonport in the North West Basketball Union (NWBU). She appealed the decision. Her teammates who came from outside the region to play debated boycotting practice in order to support her and express their unhappiness at the length of her ban. Lou Cox, the league's president, urged them not to: "I think that would be a very short sighted and poor response. All players that play the game, whether in the NWBU or the SEABL or the WNBL would be aware of the code of conduct." An independent tribunal reduced the sentence to five weeks in late June, and only for NWBU games; four of these weeks would only apply if further misconduct occurred within a year's time. This allowed Hurst to continue playing with the SEABL Tornadoes without interruption, and to return to Somerset after one week.

In 2009, she played for the Gladstone Port City Power in the Queensland Basketball League with Capitals teammate Jessica Bibby. She helped guide her team to a QBL championship, the first in the team's history. In 2010, she was named to the Queensland Basketball League's All-Star Five. She was also a member of the Power in 2010 and 2011. She was named the player of the week in Round Three.

### WNBL

Hurst has played for the Canberra Capitals and was with the team for the 1999/2000, 2000/2001, 2001/2002, 2002/2003, 2005/2006, 2006/2007, 2007/2008, 2008/2009, and 2009/2010 seasons. Her team won the WNBL Grand Final in 2001/2002, 2002/2003, 2005/2006, 2006/2007, 2008/2009 and 2009/2010. They were runners up in 2000/2001. In the 2008/2009 game, she was named the Grand Final MVP. In the preliminary final against the Sydney Uni Flames for the 2009/2010 campaign, she scored 18 points with 15 of them coming from five three-pointers.

During the 2006/2007 regular season, Hurst averaged 8.9 points per game. She played in a game against the Sydney Uni Flames in October 2007 that her team lost 112–102. In a January 2008 63–57 win for the Capitals against the Dandenong Rangers, she scored 20 points. She had a calf injury in early 2009 and missed three games. In a January 2009 game against the AIS, she scored 17 points in the team's 87–51 victory. In a late January 2009 game against the AIS which Canberra won 99–72, she scored 15 points. In a January 2009 game against the Logan Thunder that Canberra won 76–53, she scored 11 points.

### Europe

She signed with the French club, Aix en Provence in 2011 and played for them during the 2011/2012 season. In a September 2011 game, she scored 7 points in the third quarter against Villeneuve d'Ascq. She finished the game with 24 points, 4 rebounds, and 8 assists. Her team lost the game 91–94, the third game of the regular season.

### National team

Hurst was a member of the 2009 Australian women's senior national team and earned her first cap with the national team in 2009 in a series against China which Australia won 2 games to 1. She played in the third game and was expected to step up because Alicia Poto was injured. On 2 September 2009, she played in the Canberra hosted return game against New Zealand in the Oceania Championship. She won a gold medal in 2009 at the FIBA Oceania Women's Championships. She was a member of the 2010 and 2011 Opals squad. She played in September 2011 three game test series against New Zealand. She was named to the 2012 Opals. She missed the first training camp in March 2012 for the 2012 Summer Olympics campaign because she was playing club basketball in Europe. She was scheduled to participate in the national team training camp held from 14 to 18 May 2012 at the Australian Institute of Sport.

Hurst has played 17 games for Australia's junior national team. She played her first international representing Australia in 2003, though she was part of the 2000 and 2001 Australia women's national under-19 team called the Gems. In 2007, she represented Australia at the World University Games where she earned a gold medal.

# Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications

The **Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications** (**NJUPT**; 南京邮电大学) is a provincial public university in Nanjing, Jiangsu, China. It is affiliated with the Province of Jiangsu. The university is part of the Double First-Class Construction.

## History

Established in 1958, the history of the Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications can be traced to the training class for the cadres of the General Postal Administrations during the wartime in 1942. Thereafter, it underwent a series of name and structural changes, including the Posts and Telecommunications Training Department of Shandong University (山东大学邮电专科部) and Shandong Postal School (山东邮政专科学校). Zhao Zhigang, Chief of the then Wartime General Postal Administration, served concurrently as the head teacher of the training class and the principal of the school in succession during the period from 1942 to 1947. In 1948, the school was formally named the East China Posts and Telecommunications School at Yidu (now called Qingzhou), affiliated to the East China General Administration of Posts and Telecommunications. It then moved from Jinan, Shandong to Nanjing, Jiangsu in August 1949.

In December 1950, it was chronologically enlarged into the Nanjing School of Posts and Telecommunications under the direct control of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, the East China School of Posts and Telecommunications, the Nanjing Institute of Posts and Telecommunications, and the Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications. After the reform of the leadership system of national universities in February 2000, the Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications started to be jointly administered by both the central and the provincial government, with the provincial government playing the principle role. In March 2013, the university merged with the Nanjing College for Population Management (南京人口管理干部学院).

title: Nanjing West railway station

abstract:
Nanjing West railway station is a railway station in Nanjing, China. Originally named Nanjing railway station, it was first opened in 1908. as the end point of the Shanghai–Nanjing Railway.
Later, it also became the starting point of the Nanjing–Tongling Railway. Located in Nanjing's Xiaguan District, near the southern bank of the Yangtze River, opposite Nanjing North railway station on the northern side of the river, the station was a point where passengers traveling e.g. from Shanghai to Beijing would have to get off the train and board a river ferry, to resume their northward journey from the other station. After Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge was built, a new Nanjing railway station was constructed closer to the city center, and the original Nanjing railway station near the river was renamed to Nanjing West railway station, which name it has retained to this day. By the 21st century, the Nanjing West station saw only a few trains a day. This station suspended passenger services 25 March 2012, and will be converted to a railway museum.
