Russia inaugurates new airfield in Antarctica

New place was named Zenit.

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 11/15/2022 - 21:39 in Air Cargo, Commercial

The new Russian airfield for heavy transport aircraft at the Progress station in Antarctica was inaugurated on November 7 by experts from the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute and Zapsibgazprom. He was named Zenit in honor of the famous St. Petersburg football club.

"The severe weather allows us to carry out seasonal work in Antarctica for only a few months. With the opening of a new track, this period increases significantly, which means that the scale of our activities on the continent is expanding. This is an important event that will radically change the work of the Russian Antarctic expedition. For polar explorers, the new airfield is another opportunity to communicate with the house, with the hometown. Our institute is based in St. Petersburg, so our experts have made a collegial decision to name a new location in Antarctica in honor of the St. Petersburg Zenit football club. We are already discussing joint actions with the club and, perhaps, in the near future, we will please fans with interesting events," said Alexander Makarov, director of the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute (AARI).

Russian research station in Progress.

"Football is a team sport in which the well-ordinated work of all participants in the game is very important. In this case, the teams of football players and polar explorers are very similar. After all, in the big game, as well as in works in high latitudes, in difficult and sometimes dangerous conditions, mutual support and team spirit are important. It is a great honor for us that the new airfield in Antarctica has the name of the club. We plan to transfer the Zenit flag and other attributes of the team to be placed in the territory of the Progress station," said Alexander Medvedev, CEO of the Zenit football club.

The first flight of a Volga-Dnepr Airlines IL-76TD-90VD aircraft on the Cape Town - Progress route took place on November 7, 2022. The plane covered a distance of 5,300 km in 6.5 hours and delivered 6.6 tons of cargo to Antarctica and 82 participants in the 68th Russian Antarctic Expedition - AARI scientists and Zapsibgazprom experts.

A second supply flight with the Ilyushin aircraft with the Russian registration RA-76503 took place on November 12. A total of four flights are planned from Cape Town in the current season.

The Russian Antarctic Expedition (RAE) is a continuous expedition of the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute in Antarctica. Winters and seasonal detachments that work in the Antarctic summer participate in the RAE. In Antarctica, Institute employees constantly monitor changes in the natural environment in 5 seasons throughout the year: Novolazarevskaya, Bellingshausen, Mirny, Progress and East. In the summer, the work is carried out at the seasonal field bases Molodezhnaya, Druzhnaya-4, Bangera Oasis, Russian and Leningradskaya.

Progress is the latest Russian station in Antarctica: it is located in the Larsemann Hills, on the coast of Ingrid Christensen. It was created in 1988 and houses 77 employees in the Antarctic summer from October to February, and 20 in the winter.

Ice rinks are built in Antarctica in areas without effective snowfall. As ice does not contain air bubbles there, it is particularly resistant to transport and also allows the landing of heavy cargo planes. As the runways are snow-free, planes do not need skis, but can land with conventional wheels. However, due to the low braking coefficient of the ice, a special landing technology is necessary: aircraft brake after landing exclusively by reversing in thrust instead of the brakes on the wheels.

The Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute is the world's leading scientific center for the study of the Earth's polar regions. The Institute carries out the entire cycle of works in high latitudes in the interest of the Russian Federation and commercial companies. The scientific units of the Institute are involved in fundamental and applied research of the climate, processes in the atmosphere, near space, marine environment and ice cover.

AARI is a state operator to organize and implement activities in the Arctic and Antarctica. By Order of the Government of the Russian Federation, the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute was appointed state operator for the organization and implementation of activities in Antarctica in the interest of the Russian Federation. For 100 years of scientific work, the Institute's experts organized about 1,100 expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctica. In 1994, the Institute received the status of state scientific center of the Russian Federation.

HC Dump: Gabby's kids edition

Ana's haphephobia is incredibly difficult for her to deal with on a daily basis and was a monumental herculean task for her to endure when more kids started staying with Gabby. Thanks to her trauma she can hardly stand people touching her with very few exceptions that she's learned to trust such as Gabby. With the younger kids she's been able to swallow it down for the necessary aspects because she rationalizes that they're children and of no threat/harm and that they do love her like a big sister/second mom. Anyone else however she avoids like the plague, especially men.

Mia has VOWED to ruin her father one day by becoming famous and successful. She has it planned out to the detail how it will happen and how she will announce their relationship and the proof of it before society and the press. She's even planned her revenge dress though everyone has tried to correct her on the term, but she refuses to budge because that is what it is. A dress for revenge and decimation on the man who destroyed a little girl. Pretty eyes aren't the only thing she inherited from Silas St. Claire since she wears spite equally as well.

Gabby is sorely tempted to kick Hayden out of the apartment, but not for bad reasons. She feels an enormous guilt about him dedicating so much to their ragtag family that she worries he's not setting up for his own life and future outside of them. She wants him to have his own life outside of family because one day the kids will be grown and gone and he needs to have his own life, dreams and future.

Lily doesn't know what she's going to do. Ever or when she grows up. Its a question she gets asked by adults all the time and she just sheepishly shrugs and half hides behind Gabby. She's a little girl with a genius intellect, but is terrified to use it after her experience with her last set of foster parents who just wanted her to be normal. Gabby tries to let Lily be Lily whether she wants to read fantasy books or science textbooks. More often than not though Lily's intellect is kept on the downlow for her to reveal herself- if she wants. The rule in the family however is that they don't push or diminish anyone's intellect in the house and that everyone helps everyone with homework. Sometimes though Lily will sit up early in the morning with Gabby as she balances the household accounts and bills and chirps in to help out.

Sophia lives in her own world where she is a princess and everything else is her kingdom. No one in the family has the heart to tell her otherwise as she is the only one in the family that still has that childhood innocence that was taken from all of them- aside from Victoria. Sophia is also obsessed with the Disney princess by the same name.

Every child in the family, except Nick, pitches in to help care for Victoria. Gabby, however, is mildly concerned that the twins, Noah and Erin, will use her as part of their science experiments and so they never get sole watch over the six month old. Of the entire family its Sophia and Victoria that get 'new' clothes because Mia makes them new sets because they're small and so its easier and cheaper with the little amount of fabric needed.

One of the best days of the year for the Christensen clan is when their local thrift store has their yearly 75% off sale and Gabby lets the kids pick out ten items of clothing or toys. They attack with a game plan as they head into the throng of people also there for the sale and divide and conquer.

Things Gabby is terrified of is having to give 'The Talk' to the younger boys in the household. She goes back and forth on asking Hayden to give the younger boys the conversation, but also worries that even he doesn't know quite the right way since he's only twenty-three himself.

All the girls in the Christensen clan have a means of self defense on them because they live in a rough neighborhood. Gabby has a taser, Ana has a high frequency alarm and a taser, Mia has pepper spray/high frequency alarm. Lily has a high frequency alarm/tracker along with Sophia who also has the alarm/tracker and a whistle. Victoria however has a small tracker/airtag that is always tucked into her pocket.

St. Roch Fine Oysters +

Bar

It's weird for me to think of St.Roch as a downtown Raleigh fixture when I remember the space's past life as the Wilmoore Cafe, which was two iterations ago for 223 South Wilmington Street. But it has already been 7 years since Ashley Christensen closed her coffee shop Joule and passed the space to Sunny Gerhart to create St.Roch.

As food media people, we love the new thing. We flock to the new restaurant openings, get wrapped up in the excitement of possibilities. I'm as guilty of that as much as any other. But St.Roch throughout its tenure in downtown has shown the city who they are. St.Roch doesn't need to ride on possibilities, as they have 7 years of serving stellar food. And that's something that deserves excitement too.

Accompanied with attentive service, the thing that elevates St.Roch is execution. Every piece of my dirty rice duck confit was excellent individually but had a purpose when brought together. Succulent duck, flavorful rice and punch and sweetness from pineapple mostarda.

The BBQ Shrimp was the same way featuring a coconut curry that could be sold and enjoyed by the glass.

Through the ebbs and flows of the dining scene and downtown Raleigh, St. Roch has stood consistent in its exceptional food. Which may not always result in a Tik Tok or Instagram frenzy but maybe it should.

2024 Minutes

Minutes: Bishop Committee Meeting

January 14, 2024 @ 12:25pm

Attendance: Ed and Bernadette Hamilton, Mary Carter, Camille Norman, Deacon Dan Dykstra, Stephanie Edison, Carla and Ron Parish, and Jean Christensen

Deacon Dan opened the meeting with prayer.

Motion was made to accept the November minutes as written and no corrections were made.

OLD BUSINESS:

Gym Floor: It was recommended, moved and seconded with final approval by the Bishop’s Committee to pay Sexton, Ron Parris, $5,500 to complete repairs on the gym floor. Ron will receive a deposit of $2,500. The contract includes cleaning the stage underneath, which has been completed; previous work of varnish will be removed and recovered, and other items listed in the contract including putting the planks down to replace the damaged wood, no wood putty, and put down the floor materials purchased. The fee will be split at $2,750 between St. George’s Church and St. George’s Community Center.

Mortar flaking will be addressed and Ron will be in charge. The price was quoted as $60 for four (4) large cans. It is a spray on product. This still needs to be addressed in our November meeting. Ron was not present, out of town, and no report was made.

Deacon Dan will talk to Rev. Matt Bradley about the Homeless Project. St. George’s is able to provide meal/s for the group. In discussions, the committee felt that we could provide meals. Further discussion is needed to determine the number of times we could make the meals available for the people and if it would be dinner, snack bag, or breakfast food.

New Business:

Deacon Dan suggested two new projects for St. George’s.

People in the Pews Project – Deacon Dan would compose a letter asking Episcopal Churches to send a person from their church to worship at St. Georges. It would be a one-time visit or more if the people desire to continue coming.

Braden Committee Prep – St George’s and others would watch the video on Anne Braden’s life as a group.

Coats and Blankets Project: Mary stated that Church of the Advent will start to send items of clothing to St. George’s. Angie Mills from St. John’s in Murray, KY will participate. St. John’s Youth group will visit Louisville to go out and take items to the Homeless with us in December. A date for this event has not been set.

The monthly financial report was presented as of October 31, 2023 by Deacon Dan. St. George’s Episcopal Church has total assets of $27,574.49; the Community Center has total assets of $6,311.41. Both accounts joined together show assets of $33,885.90 representing our total liability and equity. Again, the only sources of income for the Center are the monthly check from the Diocese and private donations.

Reminder/s: We may not receive a Bishop’s visitation this year as Bishop White is recovering from an eye problem. Our opportunity will be based on the Bishop’s recovery this year, 2024.

Monday, February 12, 2024 is the date set for our annual parish meeting. A virtual option will be available.

Meeting adjourned at 12:25 pm.

Respectfully submitted,

Bernadette Hamilton

Minutes: Bishop Committee Meeting

February 12, 2024 @ 5:15pm

Meeting opened with prayer from Deacon Dan.

Attendance: Ed and Bernadette Hamilton, Mary Carter, Camille Norman, Deacon Dan Dykstra, Stephanie Edison, Carla and Ron Parris, Pamela Burdine and Jean Christensen

Deacon Dan opened the meeting with prayer.

Motion was made to accept the January minutes as written and no corrections were made.

OLD BUSINESS:

Gym Floor: Ron reported that the gym floor will be completed by February 20, 2024. Pam reported that Dare to Care (DTC) has 3-4 pallets with product on them that are in the gym. Ron suggested that DTC use the archway to hold the pallets and products for customers. Ron stated that he has already cleaned the area. DTC can move everything as long as it is not in the middle of the gym floor. Ron will be there on Tuesday to discuss the setup with the delivery team from the main DTC office.

Mortar flacking: Ron stated that he has completed the mortar flacking.

Christmas Food Boxes: Mary reported that we supplied 75 Christmas food boxes to the community.

Leadership Conference: Begins March 2, 2024 in Bowling Green, KY. It is free. Please don’t forget to register if you are interested.

Open House Partnership: The Partnership will meet on March 17, 2024 at Christ Church Cathedral (CCC) at 10:30 am

Safe Guarding: Camille has not heard from Safe Guarding Committee. Two documents were sent to her iPhone pertaining to convention delegates and clergy. It includes children and adult safety guidelines. Rev. Witt Stodgill is in charge. Camille will make contact with the committee.

Church leaders and Bishop Committee reassignment: Leader positions and names were listed. Mary Carter, Warden called for resignations and people interested in any positions of leadership. Thus, Mary Carter remains Warden and Ron Parris is Jr. Warden and Sexton. Deacon Dan Dykstra is officially listed as Clerk for receiving correspondence for the church. Jean Christensen expressed an interest in working with DTC. Jean withdrew the discussion until the next meeting due to time.

All Saints Camp: Mary will get information on All St. Camping rules and regulations.

Computer for Finance Chair, Carla Parris: The computer given/used by Eldra Reeves, former title of bookkeeper was returned in an unusable condition. It wouldn’t boot up. The church needs to buy Carla a new laptop. It was motioned, seconded and approved to buy the new laptop.

Deacon Dan suggested two new projects for St. George’s:

Braden Committee Prep: On March 7, 2024, St George’s and others would watch the video on Anne Braden’s life as a group at CCC at 12 noon. Volunteer readers are needed.

The monthly financial report: The Bishop Marmion loan Balance is $676. It takes us to a zero balance when paid in full.

New Business:

Financial Considerations: 1) Convention fees will be paid by St., George’s Church for delegates and clergy. 2) All Saints Camp fees are part of the consideration and 3) “Garden in a Box.” If approved all three would be included in the budget.

The Budget Report for March will include the amounts spent for 2023. This is due to delays in meetings for Christmas, the weather and no major issues needing to be addressed during November, December and January. Deacon Dan will take all monthly income of receipts and checks to our accountant.

Balance for St. George’s as of Date: ___________________ is $_______________

Balance for the Community Center as of Date: _______________ is $___________

Meeting opened with prayer from Deacon Dan.

Attendance: Ed and Bernadette Hamilton, Mary Carter, Deacon Dan Dykstra, and Jean Christensen

Prayer: Deacon Dan opened the meeting with prayer.

Reading of Minutes: Motion was made to accept the January minutes as written and no corrections were made.

OLD BUSINESS:

Gym Floor: After discussion, it was suggested that the gym floor needs at a minimum, two (2) more coats of the material used for sealing the floor, and a remover is still needed in some areas. The edges and front need to be repaired. We need to put down the tarps for DTC to continue moving products.

Homeless Project: Deacon Dan reported that the Homeless Project has been delayed until January 2025.

New Resident, Jupiter the Cat: Our cat is here. He is housed in the DTC refrigeration room. He is an adult male, five (5) years old, and fully vaccinated. When he is nervous, he hisses and bites. He has food needed for his transition in his cage, a smaller hut in the cage to sleep in with a blanket. He must be seen at least once a day and remain in his cage for two (2) weeks. At this time, Jean has taken responsibility for his care along with others. The main thing is not to let him out of the doors.

Open House Partnership: The Partnership will meet on March 17, 2024 at Christ Church Cathedral (CCC) at 10:30 am. St. George’s arrived for the morning worship service and stayed for the coffee hour afterwards. Other churches came after their service was complete. We had a good time eating and enjoying fellowship with our Episcopal brothers and sisters.

Parochial Report: Warden Mary is waiting on the pin number needed to finish the report.

Safe Guarding: Camille connected with the Safe Guarding Committee. Two documents were sent to her iPhone pertaining to convention delegates and clergy. It includes children and adult safety guidelines. Rev. Witt Stodgill is in charge. Camille will make contact with the committee. A link was sent by Camille to get us started. I have completed the Ministry section. I was able to print my certificate.

New Business: The Budget Report for March will include the amounts spent for 2023. This is due to delays in meetings for Christmas, the weather and no major issues needing to be addressed during November, December and January. Deacon Dan will take all monthly income of receipts and checks to our accountant.

Balance for St. George’s as of Date: ___________________ is $________________________

Balance for the Community Center as of Date: _______________ is $____________________

Holy Saturday: It will be held at 12 noon at St. George’s Episcopal Church. Everything will be in black.

Dare to Care: DTC needs to contact the main office for oil change locations for the delivery truck. The truck now has its new license tags. Mary is writing a letter to our neighbor next door. He parks in our van area space. The space is only available to him when we are not using the area.

Leadership Positions: Ron Parris has been asked and accepted to function in the capacity of Program Director for the Community Center. Because we are not a full parish, he cannot use the title of junior warden. Brother Ron is excellent in his role as a director or securing and recognizing program needs of the St. George Community. However, he is still the sexton for the church and a van driver. An official vote was called by Warden Mary Carter and the vote was a unanimous YES.

Jean Christensen has been asked and accepted the position as Event Coordinator and will maintain the calendar and remain in the position of directing church members as to refreshments needed for events. Any request for us of the facilities by outsides persons should go to Jean. She will discuss with Ron and Mary for availability and if the event is appropriate for the church space. This includes the church and the center. An official vote was called by Warden Mary Carter and the vote was a unanimous YES. Both of the above positions are voluntary and will meet with Mary Carter in her office in the Tachau House which will be cleaned and shared by all three.

Notes: People can get married in the church but it must be an Episcopal Priest and they must go thru counseling.

If you are interested in the Resolution for Forestry Treatment that happened in 2018, please talk to Camille.

Carla Parris has purchased the new laptop for recording records and paying bills.

Reminder/s: We may not receive a Bishop’s visitation this year as Bishop White is recovering from an eye problem. Our opportunity will be based on the Bishop’s recovery this year, 2024.
