Foxdale Mines
Foxdale Mines. The Foxdale Mines is a collective term for a series of mines and shafts which were situated in a highly mineralised zone on the Isle of Man, running east to west, from Elerslie mine in Crosby to Niarbyl on the coast near Dalby. In the 19th century the mines were widely regarded as amongst the richest ore mines in the British Isles.

Ore had been extracted by a method referred to as plug and feather or "feather wedges," which indicates that the workings date from before the introduction of gun powder into Europe.

Foxdale Mines. Operation Workings in the area of Foxdale date from 1724 when Lord Derby granted permission for the extraction of ore to begin. Initial results were somewhat mixed but work continued spasmodically until in 1848 when it is reported that 400 miners were in the employ of the mines and had uncovered a great mass of ore which could be easily extracted. Output continued to increase; 3,753 tons of lead ore yielding 2,725 tons of lead was mined on the Island in 1856 of which Foxdale Mines contributed 2,535 tons generating a profit of £11,200. For the same period profit from the Great Laxey Mine amounted to £1,000. In 1875 11,898 tons of zinc blende was extracted, in 1877 186,019 ounces of silver. In 1891 the produce of the Foxdale Mines amounted to £45,200. By 1892 several Lodes were being worked. These extended for approximately 2–3 miles, one yielding a substantial deposit of silver and another a sizable amount of very rich lead ore.

Also situated nearby was the Louisa Mine, however this was only worked for a short period of time before it was found to be uneconomical. A shaft was also sunk at East Foxdale which returned a substantial yield up until 1889 by which time it was worked out.

Closure During the first decade of the 20th century the yield from the mines began to decline significantly and by 1910 the sale of ore was failing to cover the expenses of coal, labour and other sundries. The situation had become so dire that the directors of the Isle of Man Mining Company decided on stopping the operation unless the men agreed to a reduction in wages.

History The mines were not closed because they were worked out, but rather because by the early 20th century it had become cheaper to import ore from Spain and Australia than to mine it at considerable depths. The Beckwith Shaft which was sunk in 1849 had by the time of closure yielded 50,000 tons of lead ore with a value of £750,000 and had been worked to a depth of 230 fathoms equating to . Extraction from such depths, with the infrastructure required, was not economically viable.

Foxdale Mines. Re-opening Although none of the mine workings were re-opened, in 1955 it was thought that re-processing the spoil from the mines could extract a further yield of ore. A company, Metalliferous Holdings Ltd, had been formed and was already in the process of undertaking such work at the old Snaefell Mine. The new company employed 22 men in the undertaking working around the clock. Spoil residue was transported from Foxdale to the company's flotation plant where it was tipped into an automatic sieve and in turn fed into an 80-ton Ball mill which the company had sourced from the Gold Coast. The process saw the spoil crushed by steel balls and chemicals and then passed on to the flotation tanks where it was conditioned by more chemicals, automatically skimmed, and finally dried off into powder.

An audit had found that approximately 400,000 tons of lead-zinc spoil was situated at the former pit heads at Laxey and Foxdale. At the end of May 1956 Amanda Mines took over Metalliferous Holdings Ltd with Metalliferous Holdings becoming a subsidiary of Amanda Mines. The operation yielded £60,000 in 1956. Production ceased in July 1958 as a consequence of a fall in the price of lead.

It was as a result of this discovery that the Manx Northern Railway was founded, and operated mineral trains from Foxdale to Ramsey, where the trains ran along the quayside in order to unload their contents into ships. On the return journey the trains would haul coal to power the pumping houses of the mine shafts.

However, this figure was disputed, with the Board of Trade claiming that it had little more than 1,000 members at this time. Either way, it saw growth as by the end of the century it had 25,450 members and 247 branches, making it the second largest union for labourers in the UK, after the National Union of Gas Workers and General Labourers. The small Amalgamated Corporation Employees Union (Bristol) merged in at this time.

Chertkovo railway station
Chertkovo railway station. Zhuravka – Millerovo bypass Due to war in Donbass Russian Railways would avoid Eastern Ukraine. The Zhuravka — Millerovo Railway bypassing the Ukrainian territory became operational in August 2017. It has 122.5 km double-track, 25 kV 50 Hz, maximum speed of 160 km/h, cost 56 billion RUB. The decision was taken against the background of the conflict in Ukraine to ensure security of passengers and cargo transportation. Long-distance trains will stop running through the station in this connection. By December 2017 the Russian Railways had switched all trains traveling southwards to the new Zhuravka-Millerovo line to circumvent Ukraine.

Johannine script
Johannine script. Johannine script () was a historical style of handwriting used in the Portuguese Royal Chancery starting around the reign of John I (1385–1433) that was used until the reign of Manuel I (1495–1521). It is, thus, a national variation of chancery hand, a form of blackletter.

Johannine script. Johannine script is essentially cursive, with a short corpus size (but with long ascenders and descenders), letters slope slightly to the right, words are clearly separated one from the other with no ligatures, punctuation is mostly absent, and Arabic numerals are not used (instead, numbers are given in full, or in Roman numerals). The shape of the letters v and b (and Roman numeral 5) are practically indistinguishable. Abbreviations are commonplace, mostly marked with an overline and/or superscript.

Johannine script. The prevailing script in documents from (and from the land that would eventually become) Portugal from the 8th to the 12th centuries was Visigothic script; from the mid-12th century onwards, for about a century, Carolingian minuscule and, later on, an incipient Gothic script. From 1385 onwards, that is, after John I was crowned putting an end to the Portuguese Interregnum, there is radical change in the writing style of the documents issued by the Royal Chancery: this new script (first called "Johannine script" by paleographer ) has influences of the French and Gothic scripts.

Kakkoos
Kakkoos. Kakkoos is a 2017 Tamil documentary directed by activist Divya Bharathi. The film follows the daily lives of people engaged in manual scavenging, a practice officially abolished since 2013 but which is still a common practice. This practice has its roots deeply embedded in the caste system in India. Common notion has it that the caste system is no longer relevant in India, but the film shows compelling evidence about society's conscious efforts to perpetuate caste.

Kakkoos
Kakkoos. The film addresses a whole range of issues and also establishes that manual scavenging is really about caste discrimination. Dalits are the only caste for the job, and they are underpaid, always as proxy workers with no records to show for their employment. The hazardous nature of the job, where they come into direct contact with faeces, biomedical waste and sewers everyday does not alarm the rest of society. If they die on the job choking in septic tanks, the fight for compensation could very well take another lifetime. Another question the film answers is the alternative employment. When children of manual scavengers face discrimination in school, they drop out. with no education and only a caste identity, they too eventually turn to Kakkoos. Supervisors, state agencies, and law enforcers are all to blame, and worse is that they all have a role in keeping manual scavenging alive.

China is currently the only country to approve the vaccine since Hepatitis E is rare in developed countries. There are further clinical trials planned before making the drug more generally available. to susceptible populations. The position of the WHO is that, however, national authorities may decide to use the vaccine based on the local epidemiology.
