# WBSS (AM)

**WBSS** (1490 AM), is a 400-watt radio station under the ownership of Longport Media, licensed to Pleasantville, New Jersey, and operating with a Regional Mexican format.

## History

The first station to broadcast on the 1490 frequency at the South Jersey shore was WBAB in Atlantic City, which operated as a CBS affiliate in the 1940s. WBAB went off the air and by 1955 had been replaced by WLDB (named for its owners, Leroy and Dorothy Bremmer). By the early 1970s WLDB was an NBC affiliate playing mostly country music.

In late 1974 WLDB was sold to a group of local African-American businessmen. The call sign was changed to WUSS ("We're the United States of Soul!") and the station began to target the Black community with its programming. During its 20-year run as an Urban station, some of the WUSS personalities included Larry Hicks, Larry Hayes, Lee "Brown Sugar" Sherman, Ron Allen, Eddie O'Jay, Stan Brooks, Cooks Books, Jimmy Mack, Robert G Money, Kingsley Smith, Ellis B. "Bruce Ellis" Feaster, Steve Ross, with The Dude & The Dudess, Vernon Robbins, Cleo Rowe, and William K. Fisher Jr. WUSS was successful for a number of years under the name *1490 jAMs*, but eventually fell victim to the general trend away from music on AM. After a short period of running satellite-delivered talk and oldies/blues programming, it went silent in the mid-1990s, then was sold to the owners of WOND.

The new ownership changed the station's city of license to Pleasantville and relocated its transmitter to the WOND site in that city. The call letters were changed to WGYM and a sports talk format was instituted. In 2001 the WUSS call sign returned and the format was changed to gospel; in the next few years, the station tried playing R&B oldies, then pop oldies (simulcasting WTKU-FM), went back to sports talk, then began simulcasting WTKU again (taking on the WTKU call letters in 2006). In the spring of 2007, the call sign was changed to WTAA and the station began to run a progressive talk radio format, mostly fed from the Air America Radio network. It also carried *Imus in the Morning*.

On October 9, 2008, the talk format was abandoned in favor of Bustos Media's satellite-driven regional Mexican format. The following February, WTAA again changed its format to tropical music, simulcast from WBON in Westhampton, New York. The callsign changed to WBSS in January 2010.

On August 12, 2011, the station switched to a simulcast of WOND. The station changed once more on September 30, 2011, when WBSS began to simulcast Philadelphia sports radio station WIP-FM, branded as "WIP at the Beach".

WBSS went off the air at the time of Hurricane Sandy. By late February 2013 it had resumed broadcasting. The station broadcast WOND, until April 3, 2013, the station returned to a simulcast of WTKU.

On August 5, 2019, WBSS became one of the first terrestrial radio stations in the country dedicated entirely to sports betting, teaming up with The BetR Network, as the station re-branded as "Sports Betting Radio". The station aired programming from the VSIN network, along with several hours of local programming and sports updates."

On June 28, 2024, the station flipped from sports betting radio to Regional Mexican, branded as "El Jefe 1490".

title: MV Seymour Castle

abstract: MV Seymour Castle is a river boat sailing for Thames River Cruises of Reading, England as the MV Devon Belle. She is registered by National Historic Ships on the National Register of Historic Vessels, certificate number 1955, and is one of the surviving "Little ships of Dunkirk" from the Dunkirk evacuation in 1940.

# MV Seymour Castle

**MV** ***Seymour Castle*** is a river boat sailing for Thames River Cruises of Reading, England as the MV *Devon Belle*. She is registered by National Historic Ships on the National Register of Historic Vessels, certificate number 1955, and is one of the surviving "Little ships of Dunkirk" from the Dunkirk evacuation in 1940.

## Design

MV *Seymour Castle* was built to a typical river boat design, with a lower deck, fully enclosed saloon with bar and an open deck above, fitted with a canopy. The large forward open deck, and small open deck at the stern are around halfway between the two levels. The wheelhouse is located on the upper deck. She was built with large windows for the full length of her lower saloon. These were replaced with rather small portholes during her time as the MV *Scomber*, but were restored during her time as *Dartmothian*.

## History

The ship was built for the River Dart Steamboat Co Ltd by Ferris and Blank of Creekside Boatyard near Dartmouth, Devon. She was the largest vessel ever built by this yard, which specialised in the construction of motor yachts and rowing boats, and was built of local oak frames, with pitch pine planking. She only had one year in service before the declaration of World War II. In May 1940, she travelled to the Dover Straits to assist in the Dunkirk Evacuation, and remained in Admiralty service in the Folkestone area until the end of the war, when she returned to the Dart.

In 1972, with reducing traffic on the Dart, she was sold to the naturalist and writer Tony Soper, who gave her a major refit, with a new wheelhouse, portholes replacing her cabin windows and a saloon equipped for lectures. She was also equipped with beam trawl, plankton nets, charts, books and microscopes for passenger use. She was used on wildlife spotting cruises from Plymouth and Dartmouth, including a number of six-day cruises under charter to the National Trust, with passengers spending nights ashore in hotels. In 1977, she returned to conventional cruises, based out of Plymouth, for KT Bridge, under the name MV *Southern Comfort of Plymstock*.

In 1982, she returned to the Dart, under the ownership of G.H. Riddalls and Sons, was renamed MV *Dartmothian*, and resumed her Dartmouth to Totnes sailings and circular cruises from Dartmouth. Following the introduction of the MV *Dartmouth Princess* in 1994 and the *MV Dittisham Princess* in 1995, she saw little use, and was sold to KJ Bridge, and renamed the MV *Devon Belle*, resuming the "dockyard and warships" cruises from Plymouth Hoe.

In 1999, MV *Devon Belle* was sold to Thames River Cruises of Caversham, Berkshire, near Reading on the River Thames. She underwent a major restoration, during which she returned to Dunkirk as part of the 2000 Dunkirk reunion. She now operates trips to Mapledurham House and circular cruises.

# The Friend (LDS magazine)

***The Friend***, formerly titled ***The Children's Friend***, is a monthly children's magazine published by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It is aimed at those of Primary age, approximately ages 3 through 12. It includes messages from church leaders, stories, crafts, recipes, and artwork and poetry submitted by readers.

## History

### Origin

Some have traced the precedent for The Friend to George Q. Cannon's establishment of the *Juvenile Instructor* as a "first-class child's paper" in January 1866. Over time though this periodical shifted to being under the organization of the Deseret Sunday School Union and became more aimed at teachers than children.

The church's Primary organization was formed in 1878. In 1890, the Free Public School Act was passed by the Utah Territorial, establishing schools in the territory. Funded by taxpayers, LDS Church doctrine could not be taught in the public schools, which concerned the Primary General President, Louie B. Felt, who said, "If there was a time when it was important to attend to the spiritual education of our children, it is now when so many of our little ones attend the district school, where religion is forbidden to be taught." May Anderson, secretary to the Primary General Presidency, first suggested the idea for a periodical for children in 1893. The Children's Friend was ultimately under control of the Primary organization.

### *The Children's Friend*

By 1896, the Primary General Presidency began lobbying for its own publication, making several appeals to the First Presidency, but were denied because, "it was too great an undertaking." In 1899, the Primary general board published *the Primary Helper*, a booklet that sold for 15 cents, but it was unsuccessful and only ran for one volume. In 1901, the First Presidency approved publishing a magazine they called *The Children's Friend*, with the stipulation that the LDS Church would not provide any financial assistance, and if it failed the church would not pay the debts.

The men in the printing office discouraged Felt and Anderson from printing the magazine, one of them stating, "Don't do it. Don't do it. Magazines run by women always fail. Take my advice and drop the idea." In November 1901, an office building was secured and Anderson became the first editor. Felt put up her home as collateral May Anderson, quit her job to work full time on Primary. The magazine was first published in January 1902, and was financially stable. In the first issue, Felt wrote, "With feelings of intense joy, deep devotion and profound gratitude we introduce this little book. Hope and fear alternately plead for supremacy and we humbly ask that you will exercise charity and assist us by your faith and prayers."

The initial print run was 2,000, with it increased to 4,000 the following year. By 1906, after improvements to the magazine and sales representatives created in each ward, circulation increased to 20,000. In 1924, the magazine changed to a larger size, with two colors in the cover, and included picture and serial stories. In the 1940s, center pages featured cut-out crafts for children, and lessons for children were eliminated. By 1970, circulation was at 170,000. The Primary General President often doubled as editor of *The Children's Friend*.

### *The Friend*

*The Children's Friend* changed its title to *The Friend* at the end of 1970. *The Friend* has been published since January 1971. The First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the LDS Church began to oversee the magazine that year. Contents included "illustrated stories, quotes and messages from church general authorities, recipes, games, activities, suggestions for Family Home Evening, gospel art, and so on." This change also made *The Friend* an official vehicle for communication of the church to its members.

Gordon B. Hinckley, then a member of the Quorum of the Twelve, explained in an article in the December *Improvement Era* some of the reasoning behind the name change. He wrote, "The name of the magazine will ... simply be the *Friend*, dropping the word *Children's*, because when some youngsters get to be ten and eleven years of age, they think they are no longer children. But they still need a Friend".

In 2012, the magazine's contents were described by the *Deseret News*: "*The Friend* magazine has incorporated scriptures throughout the magazine. Each article is based on a scripture, includes different stories about Jesus and a poster is found each month titled 'Bright Ideas' that has an easy scripture for children to memorize." *The Salt Lake Tribune* criticized a 2013 article about the mothers of LDS Church presidents published in *The Friend* for not including the names of the mothers. In 2015, its circulation was estimated to be 275,000. That same year, the magazine ran an initiative where children sent in paper cutouts of their hands with an act of service they performed written on them; over 30,000 of these "helping hands" were received from children worldwide.

In 2016, the magazine's article "Savannah the Engineer," about a young girl who enters a battery-powered-car-designing contest, was viewed by one LDS feminist as one of several instances of increasing gender equality in LDS Church-affiliated organizations.

As part of a panel at the UNICEF Humanitarian Action for Children in December 2019, Joy D. Jones mentioned that *The Friend* would publish articles for children about "safe health practice, including hand washing, mosquito nets, removal of standing water, immunizations, exercise, and nutrition" the following year. In August 2020, the church announced that beginning in January 2021, *The Friend* would change from being published only in English to being published in a total of 23 languages every month, with another 24 language editions published bimonthly.

# MC-6 parachute

The **MC-6 Parachute** is a ***Maneuverable Canopy*** **(MC)** static line-deployed personnel parachute of the United States Armed Forces. Developed by United States Army Special Forces, the parachute has been used by American *Special Operations Forces* (SOF) beginning in 2006 and Australian SOF starting in 2011.

Under an initiative dubbed *Special Operations Forces Tactical Advanced Parachute System* (SOFTAPS), intended to provide a replacement for the **MC1-1 Parachute**, the **SF-10A Parachute** became an interim successor to the MC1-1 before culminating in the development and production of the **MC-6 Parachute**.

## Background

In the mid-1990s, as part of the Base Realignment and Closure plan, the 10th Special Forces Group was relocated from Fort Devens, Massachusetts to Fort Carson, Colorado. The altitude of their new garrison at over 5,800 feet (1,800 m) proved challenging in many ways, not the least of which was that their new higher altitude meant that aircraft stall speeds were somewhat higher than at their previous base.

The increased speeds of the jump aircraft resulted in soldiers experiencing violent opening shocks and as many as 40% of all canopies were damaged during some training jumps while using their standard issued MC1-1-series parachutes. Some of the MC1-1s suffered catastrophic damage to their canopies such as blown section or gore and damaged suspension lines. Jumpers encountering these malfunctions are trained to activate their reserve parachutes if their rate of descent is faster than other jumpers or if they are unable to compare their rate of descent.

In 1998, the US Army Special Forces Command (Airborne) began the SOFTAPS initiative, directing their organic *Airborne Special Operations Test Directorate* (ASOTD) to identify an interim replacement for the MC1-1 until the *Advanced Tactical Parachute System* (ATPS) Program Office fielded a suitable permanent replacement. The ASOTD tested six candidates at Fort Carson with drop zones at over 6,000 ft (1,800 m) in elevation in 1999, ultimately selecting an existing commercial off-the-shelf product used by Forest Service smokejumpers called the **FS-14 Parachute**. The FS-14 canopy was integrated with the **T-10 Parachute** harness, creating the SF-10A Parachute with the "SF" designation signifying Special Forces.

## Development

Since the SF-10A was only intended to be a temporary replacement for the MC1-1-series of parachutes under SOFTAPS and not an official Army Program of Record, US Army Special Operations Command was responsible for all costs incurred through the life of the SF-10A program. When ATPS, the official program of record, developed the **T-11 Parachute** as the Army's newest non-steerable parachute, the canopy from the SF-10A was integrated into the harness of the T-11 resulting in the MC-6.

The T-11 harness provides a wider array of sizing options for jumper comfort and fit, features integral attachment points for the newly developed **T-11R Reserve Parachute**, and is capable of sustaining 40 lb (18 kg) more weight than the T-10 harnesses used in the SF-10A. Since the T-11 and MC-6 parachute systems are almost identical in outward appearance, donning and inspection procedures of both parachutes are likewise similar. This similarity minimizes, but does not eliminate, training requirements for jumpers and jumpmasters transitioning from the T-11 to the MC-6.

| Maximum Altitude MSL | 11,000 ft (3,400 m) | 10,000 ft (3,000 m) |

## Design

The MC-6 main canopy has a nominal diameter of 32 ft (9.8 m) at the skirt with a poly-conical shape and is constructed of low permeability nylon parachute cloth. There are 28 total gores, 24 standard gores made up of four sections each and four extended gores made up of nine (seven horizontal and two vertical) sections each. The anti-inversion netting is sewn to the skirt band of the canopy with suspension line attachment loops sewn to the netting.

There are six opening vents at the front of the canopy improving stability and the integrity of the canopy by allowing the increased air volume, due to the increased forward speed, to pass through instead of collapsing the front of the canopy during descent. The improved forward movement is provided by three drive vents at the rear of the canopy and mesh netting is sewn into these vents. A brake slot reduces forward drive and allows for the canopy to be maneuvered backwards. Control line toggles on the risers are attached to the lower control lines which reach the extended gores via attachment to the middle then upper control lines.

## Operation

### Parachute Deployment

After exiting the aircraft, the jumper falls to the end of the static line pulling the curved pin from the pack-closing loop. The deployment bag is plucked from the pack tray breaking two connector link ties, extracting the suspension lines from the deployment bag. Two locking stows then disengage which release the canopy from the deployment bag until the canopy is stretched to its full length. The jumper's body weight then snaps a tie between the bridle loop at the apex of canopy and the static line allowing the canopy to begin to inflate, slowing the parachutist's rate of descent.

### Canopy Manipulation

To turn the canopy, the parachutist pulls down the appropriate control line toggle which closes the attached extended gores. Closing the gores on one side of the parachute re-directs airflow through the extended gores on the opposite side of the canopy, rotating the canopy toward the closed gores. Pulling the right toggle turns the canopy right and pulling the left toggle turns the canopy left.

Braking is accomplished by pulling downward on both toggles simultaneously to one of the six braking positions: No Brake (toggles above head), One-Fourth Brake (toggles between eye and shoulder), One-Half Brake (toggles at chest level), Three-Fourths Brake (toggles between chest and waist), Full Brake (toggles at waist level), and Reverse Flight (toggles below waistline).

Proper steering and braking coupled with techniques such as "holding into the wind", "running with the wind", and "crabbing with the wind" during descent allow experienced parachutists to land at a desired point on the drop zone while reducing landing impact thus minimizing the risk of injury.

## Fielding

The Program Executive Office Soldier Clothing and Individual Equipment Program Manager reported that as of April 1, 2011, nearly 19,000 MC-6s had been fielded across the Army (15,780), Navy (675), Air Force (107) and USSOCOM (2,269) under the ATPS program. Australian Special Operations Command (SOCOMD) maintains the sole remaining parachute elements in the Australian Defence Force since the reclassification of 3rd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment from an airborne to a light infantry role in 2011. SOCOMD sought replacements for their T-10 and MC1-1 parachutes, finally selecting the American T-11 and MC-6 parachutes.

title: Listeria virus P100

abstract: Listeria virus P100 is a virus of the family Herelleviridae, genus Pecentumvirus. Listeria virus P100 has been proposed as food additive to control Listeria monocytogenes, the bacteria responsible for Listeriosis. Listeriosis is an infection that is the result of consuming food that is contaminated by Listeria monocytogenes. As a member of the group I of the Baltimore classification, Listeria virus P100 is a dsDNA virus. P100 shares a nonenveloped morphology consisting of a head and a tail separated by a neck similar to other members of the Myoviridae family. Virions are independent particles that exist separate from cells. They are spread by attaching to a host cell and injecting a double stranded DNA; the host then transcribes and translates it to manufacture new particles. Host cell DNA polymerases is needed to replicate its genetic content, therefore, the process is highly dependent on the cell cycle.

# Listeria virus P100

***Listeria virus P100*** is a virus of the family *Herelleviridae*, genus *Pecentumvirus*.

*Listeria virus P100* has been proposed as food additive to control *Listeria monocytogenes*, the bacteria responsible for Listeriosis. Listeriosis is an infection that is the result of consuming food that is contaminated by *Listeria monocytogenes*.

As a member of the group I of the Baltimore classification, *Listeria virus P100* is a dsDNA virus. P100 shares a nonenveloped morphology consisting of a head and a tail separated by a neck similar to other members of the Myoviridae family. Virions are independent particles that exist separate from cells. They are spread by attaching to a host cell and injecting a double stranded DNA; the host then transcribes and translates it to manufacture new particles. Host cell DNA polymerases is needed to replicate its genetic content, therefore, the process is highly dependent on the cell cycle.

## Characteristics

*Listeria virus P100* targets *Listeria monocytogenes*, the bacterial pathogen responsible for listeriosis. *Listeria monocytogenes* is the only human pathogen that causes Listeriosis. Unlike most phages infecting bacteria in the genus *Listeria*, *Listeria virus P100* is a virulent phage. This means that it destroys the host cell through lysis which is when the membrane of a cell is broken down. This makes phage P100 absolutely lethal to *Listeria* after infection. The contractile tail of the *Listeria virus P100* serves as the mechanism in which DNA is ejected from the (non-encased) protein capsid into the host's cytoplasm, where DNA replication occurs independently from the host. Additionally, the P100 type has a very large host range, which accounts for over 95% of all bacteria types within *Listeria* that appear in food (unlike most phages in its genus.)

## Treatment potential

Listeriosis affects approximately 1,600 people each year, and within that group about 260 people will not survive. Listeriosis is most commonly observed in immunocompromised, pregnant, elderly or young people. *Listeria monocytogenes* can grow on a variety of foods, such as cheese, meat, poultry, vegetables, and seafood. *Listeria monocytogenes* may even be detected on surfaces that have had contact with the previously mentioned foods. *Listeria virus P100* has been shown to be generally stable under storage conditions. *Listeria virus P100* is a key component to the food additive Listex P100, which has received GRAS (generally recognized as safe) status by the US food and drug administration and is currently approved for use in the European Union as well. PhageGuard is a company that developed an organic, FDA approved product to combat *Listeria*. The company prides themselves on not affecting the smell, texture or taste of the food they use their product on while eliminating *Listeria monocytogenes*.

## Genome

Its linear genome contains 131,385 base pairs that encode 174 open reading frames and 18 tRNAs. The requirement for each open reading frame (ORF) was the presence of one of the following start codons: ATG, TTG, or GTG as well as a suitable ribosomal binding site and a minimum length of 40 encoded amino acids.

P100 appears to be closely related to *Listeria virus A511*, which is also virulent. Both belong morphologically to the *Herelleviridae* family. Further phenotypic observations also correlate well, showing significant nucleotide homologies between them. There are also some shared sequences with other *Herelleviridae* phages that infect Gram-Positive bacteria.

title: List of roadhouses in Western Australia

# List of roadhouses in Western Australia

Western Australia has extensive long-distance highways with few localities along them. Privately owned general stores known as roadhouses have been established at strategic points as an important utility for petrol, food, accommodation, emergency facilities and general supplies. They are also useful reference points in any response to accidents, floods, crime and other emergencies.

North-western roadhouses are found next to river crossings or close to station homesteads. In the event of flooding of the North West Coastal Highway, they are locations where vehicles including road trains can be safely encamped and accounted for when a sudden deluge may make the road impassable.

On the Nullarbor or Eyre Highway, places designated as roadhouses are in some cases also vested as localities and, in some cases, known as roadhouse communities.

The following list is of roadhouses that exist in isolation, having little or no adjacent community infrastructure. It does not include roadhouses which are in country towns.

## Roadhouses

## Driver fatigue

Due to the high incidence of fatalities and accidents attributed to driver fatigue, some locations have opted into a program of providing free coffee to encourage drivers to take a break or rest on long journeys - in some cases some of the roadhouses above have become involved in that programme.

title: Piano Trio No. 4 (Dvořák)

abstract: The Piano Trio No. 4 in E minor, Op. 90, B. 166, is a composition by Antonín Dvořák for piano, violin and cello. It is among the composer's best-known works. It is also a well-known example of chamber music that significantly deviates from the traditional structure of classical chamber music, both in terms of the quantity of movements and the formal organization of those movements.

text:
# Piano Trio No. 4 (Dvořák)

The **Piano Trio No. 4** in E minor, Op. 90, B. 166, (also called **Dumky trio** from the subtitle *Dumky*) is a composition by Antonín Dvořák for piano, violin and cello. It is among the composer's best-known works.

It is also a well-known example of chamber music that significantly deviates from the traditional structure of classical chamber music, both in terms of the quantity of movements and the formal organization of those movements.

## Title

*Dumky*, the plural form of *dumka*, is a Ukrainian term. Originally, it is the diminutive form of the term *Duma*, plural *dumy*, which refers to epic ballads, specifically a song or lament of captive people. During the nineteenth century, composers from other Slavic countries began using the *duma* as a classical form to indicate a brooding, introspective composition with cheerful sections interspersed within. Dvořák used the *dumka* form in several other compositions, including his Dumka for Solo Piano, Op. 35; Slavonic Dance No. 2; String Sextet; and his Piano Quintet, Op. 81.

## History

Dvořák completed the trio on 12 February 1891. It premiered in Prague on 11 April 1891, with violinist Ferdinand Lachner, cellist Hanuš Wihan, and Dvořák himself on piano. The same evening, Prague's Charles University awarded the composer an honorary doctorate. The work was so well received that Dvořák performed it on his forty-concert farewell tour throughout Moravia and Bohemia, just before he left for the United States to head the National Conservatory of Music of America in New York City. The trio was published while Dvořák was in America and was proofread by his friend Johannes Brahms.

## Structure

The piece is in six sections:

1. *Lento maestoso — Allegro quasi doppio movimento* (E minor – E major)
2. *Poco adagio — Vivace non troppo — Vivace* (C minor)
3. *Andante — Vivace non troppo — Allegretto* (A major – A minor – A major)
4. *Andante moderato — Allegretto scherzando — Quasi tempo di marcia* (D minor – D major)
5. *Allegro* (E major – E minor)
6. *Lento maestoso* (C minor – C major)

The composition features six *dumky* episodes throughout. The initial three *dumky* are connected together without interruption in the harmonically complementary keys given above, in effect forming a long first movement. The final three *dumky* are presented in unrelated keys, thus giving the overall impression of a four-movement structure.

Music critic Daniel Felsenfeld describes the form as follows:

> The form of the piece is structurally simple but emotionally complicated, being an *uninhibited Bohemian lament*. Considered essentially formless, at least by classical standards, it is more like a six movement *dark fantasia*—completely original and successful, a benchmark piece for the composer. Being completely free of the rigors of sonata form gave Dvořák license to take the movements to some dizzying, heavy, places, able to be *both brooding* and yet somehow, through it all, *a little lighthearted*.

Musicologists Derek Katz and Michael Beckerman observe, "Whereas in the quintet \[Op. 81\] he had borrowed a plan from Schumann to mold his *dumka* into a quasi-traditional framework, here he allows each of the six *dumky* to stand fully realized on its own."

abstract: Vasily Ignatievich Grinevetsky was a professor of engineering at the Imperial Moscow Technical School in the Russian Empire. Along with his colleague, Karl Vasilievich Kirsh, he proposed founding the All-Russia Thermal Engineering Institute, which was eventually founded in 1921. Grinevetsky was born on 2 June 1871 in Kiev to the family of a railway employee, State Counsellor Ignatii Feliksovich Grinevetsky, who belonged to an old noble family, and his wife Ekaterina Vasilievna, the daughter of Admiral Vasily Zavoyko, who had organised the successful defence of Petropavlovsk, Kamchatka from the Anglo-French fleet during the Crimean War. However his mother died when he was six, and the family moved to Kremenchug, where his father had been reposted. Then the family moved on to Kazan where he then attended Kazan Real School. As a child he developed an interest in machinery, building a working roller mill on his grandmother's estate. In 1889 he entered the Imperial Moscow Technical School. However, after his father died in 1891, the school came to play a central part in his life. After graduating there he stayed on as a teacher of machine design, becoming an adjunct professor in 1904. In 1914 he was appointed director of the school.
