Presidents day music: President’s Day: 20 Presidential Songs
Free President Songs and Rhymes for Circle Time
President songs are great for Presidents’ Day, presidential elections, Inauguration Day, and president unit studies. Today, I’m adding lots of president songs for any of those occasions to my series of free songs and rhymes for circle time. Note: see the bottom of the post for non-holiday songs and rhymes as well as for other holiday songs throughout the year.
There are lots of CDs you can buy, but I’m just listing free resources here. You can typically find links to buy the CDs for songs on YouTube if you wish. These are songs that I’ve found online for teachers and childcare providers. They are also great if you’re a homeschooler or parent supplementing your child’s learning at home. And I think they’re lots of fun for grandparents and anyone who enjoys spending time with a special child.

Presidents’ Day Playlist: 44 Songs for Every US Commander-in-Chief [LISTEN]
By
Jon Niles
Today is George Washington‘s birthday, which follows Abraham Lincoln‘s birthday by a few days, meaning today is Presidents’ Day and you’re probably home from school because of it. But instead of just celebrating this day off, we’re taking a look and listen at how music has celebrated our Commanders in Chief over the years. Check out this new playlist of 44 songs that were written for and/or about each of our Presidents over the years!
1. George Washington
“No More Kings” by Pavement, a School House Rock cover, is an educational tune about our very first President and our country’s origins.
3. Thomas Jefferson
Nas‘ “Black President” from 2008 brings to mind the scandalous past of our founding father, namely his relations with his slaves.
4. James Madison
Johnny Horton‘s “The Battle of New Orleans” is about a pivotal moment in the US’s history under our fourth President.
5. James Monroe
While Sheryl Crow‘s rocking “Hard to Make a Stand” song isn’t really about the last Founding Father President, she does mix his name with James Dean, which is kind of a compliment, don’t you think?
7. Andrew Jackson
Fans of Sufjan Stevens consider his album homage to Illinois a great collection of tunes, with the song “Jacksonville” talking about the town’s namesake – our 7th President.
8. Martin Van Buren
Our eighth President is responsible for the trail of tears, which “Indian Reservation” was written about.
9. William Henry Harrison
This well-known phrase was the campaign song for the brief President!
10. John Tyler
We thank Tyler for the annexation of Texas!
11. James Knox Polk
They Might Be Giants, once again, show up on the playlist!
13. Millard Fillmore
Bobby Rydell apparently had a song called “Forgotten,” which was about our 13th President, but it is super hard to find. So here’s his hit “Forget Him,” which we did do regarding Fillmore.
14. Franklin Pierce
15. James Buchanan
16. Abraham Lincoln
Obviously one of our most important Presidents, it is only fitting that Marvin Gaye sing about him and other important figures in this song.
17. Andrew Johnson
He was the first President to be impeached, so we’re going to just link you to the singer that has a similar name!
35. John F. Kennedy
“We Didn’t Start the Fire” by Billy Joel … you know why!
36. Lyndon Johnson
Singer-songwriter Tom Paxton hit the nail on the head with this song.
40. Ronald Reagan
com/embed/PdiCJUysIT0″ frameborder=”0″>
43. George W. Bush
Connor Oberst of Bright Eyes fame has never been shy about his distaste for the Bush administration. He wrote the song “When the President Talks to God” as a tongue-in-cheek message to the Commander, and then released it for free.
Do you have a favorite song written for or about a President that you think should’ve made this playlist? Let us know in the comments section below!

One time there was a little boy
Who had a little hatchet
He looked and looked around to find
A little tree to catch it
At least he spied a cherry tree
His father’s pride and joy
He chopped it down, right to the ground
My! What a naughty boy!
And then he heard an angry voice
It sounded like a cymbal
George knew he was in trouble great
And he began to tremble
Who cut this tree, my son did you?
His father asked the question.
Yes, it was I. I cannot lie.
I cut it with my hatchet!
Chorus:
Georgie, Georgie, no, no, no.
Be careful what you do.
Hatchets can be dangerous
And you might get hurt too!

Presidents and their music
February 20, 2022
The Uniform Monday Holiday Act became effective in 1971. It created three federal holidays: Washington’s Birthday, Memorial Day and Labor Day.
All became holidays to be observed on the third Monday of the traditional month of that celebration. This year,
Washington’s birthday, colloquially referred to as “Presidents’ Day” falls on Monday, Feb. 21, and is a welcome day off for many Americans.
Here are some chronological tidbits about some of our musical, and not so musical, Presidents who are saluted and remembered this Monday.
As our first President, George Washington’s birthday is the anchor for the Presidents’ Day holiday. His Mount Vernon estate was the site of much music during his presidential terms, as he was apparently quite the party animal. He had a standing soiree on Thursday afternoons, during which his nieces provided much rehearsed classical music. The compositions were played on a five-octave harpsicord from London and a Dodds pianoforte, one of the very first built in America.
In addition to being the first President, Washington was also the first critic, and was a hard nut when it came to his troops.
He complained about the quality of song coming from his army’s music corps, saying, “the music of the army was in general very bad.” The President further said, “The drum and fife Majors exert themselves to improve it or they will be reduced (demoted), and their extraordinary pay taken from them.”
The third President and the face on the nickel, Thomas Jefferson, played the violin and cello. He played during his college years, practicing up to three hours each day. Jefferson played with other fine musicians just for the pure enjoyment of it, citing the delightful conversations that they partook in as part of the reason.
He was very fond of the music composed by Hadyn, Vivaldi, Handel and Boccherini. Jefferson was, ahem, instrumental in building the United States Marine Band into their present magnificence. He was the first President to have the band play at the Inauguration.
Abraham Lincoln is said to be one of America’s most unmusical Presidents, but he loved to listen to music passionately.
He loved both classical and “popular” music. Lincoln was also an opera buff, and viewed productions centered on the works of Rossini, Wagner, Verdi and Beethoven. He, in fact, attended the opera more than 30 times during his four years in the White House.
Mary Todd Lincoln did enjoy actually playing the piano. When the family took up residence in the White House, she ordered a new grand piano from the Schomacker Company, and set it up in the Victorian themed Red Room of the White House.
Chester A. Arthur played the banjo. Enough said.
Warren Harding “played every instrument but the slide trombone and the E-flat cornet.” It is said that Harding sat in with the band that played at his nomination in 1920.
Harry Truman was our nation’s 33rd President. In addition to overseeing the end of World War II, Truman played a mean piano. He is said to have never passed a piano without playing a tune. During the first televised tour of the White House in 1952, Truman played Mozart’s “A Major Sonata” to the live audience of 30 million Americans.
About music, Truman once joked, “My choice early in life was either to be a piano player in a whorehouse, or a politician. And to tell the truth, there’s hardly any difference.”
Richard Nixon was a classically trained pianist and also played the accordion and violin. He even composed music and performed one of his short concertos on Jack Parr’s “Tonight Show,” with full orchestral accompaniment.
He never learned to read music, but Nixon played well enough – or was brave enough- to play “Happy Birthday” to Duke Ellington when the great band leader appeared at the White House in 1969.
Bill Clinton was apparently pretty good on the sax. He sat first chair in the Arkansas All-State High School Band and considered pursuing music as a career.
While running for President in 1992, he was a guest on “The Arsenio Hall Show.” That night, he played “Heartbreak Hotel” (co-written by Mae Axton, Hoyt’s mother) and “God Bless the Child” with Hall’s band. He played well, looked cool, and soon passed George H.
W. Bush in the polls.
Here’s a trivia question. Which U.S. President is credited on a live concert recording that also features David Bowie, Goo Goo Dolls, Billy Joel, Bon Jovi, Destiny’s Child, Eric Clapton, James Taylor and The Who? Bill Clinton, “The Concert for New York City (to Benefit the Robin Hood Relief Fund)” (Columbia Records, 2001)
In the leave ‘em with a laugh department, there is this. Perhaps the least musical president was Ulysses S. Grant, the guy buried in Grant’s Tomb. He was said to have been terribly tone deaf. He was credited with his honesty when he said, “I only know two tunes. One of them is ‘Yankee Doodle’ and the other isn’t.”
Happy Presidents/ Day, everybody.
‘Hail to the Chief’ wasn’t always so presidential

Presidents Day: ‘Hail to the Chief’ wasn’t always so presidential
“Hail to the Chief” was first associated with a president on Feb.
22, 1815, when it was played (under the title “Wreaths for the Chieftain”) partly to honor George Washington (depicted on the left on Mount Rushmore in South Dakota), who died in 1799.Scott Olson/Getty Images

Is there a more authoritatively “American”-sounding composition than “Hail to the Chief”? What’s most surprising, however, is that the origin of the music isn’t American at all, and its use might have had a lot to do with making up for shortcomings.
Played to announce the arrival of the president at official state functions, “Hail to the Chief,” is typically preceded with a fanfare of four “ruffles and flourishes” and then the familiar march.

To get the whole history, we have to start at the beginning, which in this case is Walter Scott’s poem “The Lady of the Lake.” The poem is a narrative of how a wayward clan from the Scottish Highlands loses its territory to an invasion.
The poem was published May 8, 1810, and with it came fame and money, selling 25,000 copies in less than a year. The thrilling plot and in-depth characters lent to an easy stage adaptation; 1811 saw at least three productions in London alone, plus one in Edinburgh, Scotland, produced by Edmund John Eyre.
A year later, the sensation swept across the Atlantic, and the Scottish version had its U.S. debut in Philadelphia’s New Theater on New Year’s Day, 1812. Among the songs selected to accompany the play was James Sanderson’s “Hail to the Chief,” written for one of the London productions, taking this stanza to heart:
Hail to the Chief who in triumph advances!
Honored and blessed be the ever-green Pine!
Sanderson set “Hail to the Chief” to the words of Stanza XIX of the Second Canto of Scott’s “Lady of the Lake.” The poem’s “Chief” was the Scottish folk hero Roderick Dhu, who strove to protect the Douglas clan from their enemy, King James V, but died at the monarch’s hand.
Because of the play’s popularity, sheet music was made available. The first U.S. sheet music for “Hail to the Chief” was published in Philadelphia under the title “March and Chorus, ‘Hail to the Chief,’ in the Dramatic Romance of The Lady of the Lake.”
Given its sheer availability and rousing pomp, it was only a matter of time before U.S. presidents became the “chief” in the title. “Hail to the Chief” was first associated with a chief executive on Feb. 22, 1815, when it was played (under the title “Wreaths for the Chieftain”) to honor George Washington, who died in 1799, and the end of the War of 1812.
It was used sporadically to honor presidents throughout the next few decades. Andrew Jackson was the first living president to hear it in his honor in 1829. It made an appearance at Martin Van Buren’s inauguration in 1837. But then in 1841, first lady Julia Tyler, wife of John Tyler, requested its use to announce the president’s arrival.
Her request formalized its use, but that doesn’t mean it was widely accepted.
It was, however, included in some musical instruction books, including the one that future first lady Sarah Childress Polk studied. Of course, it was included in her husband’s inauguration but would also prove helpful for one of his administration’s shortcomings — his meekness.
Historian William Seale explained: “Polk was not an impressive figure, so some announcement was necessary to avoid the embarrassment of his entering a crowded room unnoticed. At large affairs, the band … rolled the drums as they played the march … and a way was cleared for the president.”
President Chester Arthur was not a fan and requested that none other than John Philip Sousa compose a new piece. Sousa, who for a great part of his career directed the U.S. Marine Band, came back with the forgettable “Presidential Polonaise.”
President Harry Truman — an amateur musicologist and outstanding pianist — spent time tracing the origins of the piece and in 1954 the Department of Defense established it as the official musical tribute to the president.
The Lyrics
Lyrics that were written by Albert Gamse are set to James Sanderson’s music, but they are rarely sung.
Hail to the Chief we have chosen for the nation,
Hail to the Chief! We salute him, one and all.
Hail to the Chief, as we pledge cooperation
In proud fulfillment of a great, noble call.
Yours is the aim to make this grand country grander,
This you will do, that’s our strong, firm belief.
Hail to the one we selected as commander,
Hail to the President! Hail to the Chief!

What songs do Putin, Zelensky and other presidents listen to

Former US President Barack Obama presented a playlist of the best songs for this summer – it includes tracks by Rihanna, The Rolling Stones, Jay-Z, Louis Armstrong and Bob Dylan.
Gazeta.Ru talks about favorite performers and songs of other world leaders, including former ones.
Vladimir Putin
It is believed that in his free time Putin listens to Lube, which periodically performs at official events with the participation of the president. The head of state himself spoke about the passion for the group’s creativity earlier. At the same time, in an interview with Irina Shikhman, political strategist Gleb Pavlovsky said that Putin listens and loves Vladimir Vysotsky.
In 2008, the president also said that he liked the work of Pyotr Tchaikovsky (as part of a recent Direct Line, he again named Tchaikovsky’s first concerto among his favorite works), and of foreign classics – Franz Liszt, Franz Schubert and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. In addition, Putin admitted to his passion for jazz.
The favorite song of the Russian President is called by some the composition “Where the Motherland Begins” by Veniamin Basner from the film “Shield and Sword”.
Her Putin performed on the piano in 2010 at a charity evening in St. Petersburg.
Dmitry Medvedev
The Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia is quite a musical person. In one of the interviews, the politician said that in his youth he was a DJ and preferred rock. However, with age, his preferences became more diverse. “I can have anything on my repeat, from Elvis Presley, Dean Martin, and even Beethoven and Mozart, to completely modern rock bands, and sometimes even electronic musical compositions,” Medvedev said.
Of the Russian performers, the ex-president of Russia likes Splin, Aquarium, BI-2, Chaif, Kino.
Donald Trump
During the first election campaign, Donald Trump’s love for American rock classics was clearly manifested – he tried to actively use some of the hits of the stars of the genre at campaign events.
True, Aerosmith, Ozzy Osbourne and other artists subsequently banned their songs from being included as part of Trump’s speech to supporters.
The ex-president of the United States himself said that he was a big fan of The Rolling Stones, Eminem and Elton John, and his favorite song is “Is that all there is?” (“Is that all?”) performed by Peggy Lee. “It’s a great song because I’ve had an amazing success and then moved on to the next one, reminding myself, ‘Oh, is that it?’ Trump told his biographer Michael D’Antonio.
Ronald Reagan
The 40th President of the United States was quite closely associated with the world of art, music and cinema. The site dedicated to the memory of the politician published well-known facts from his life: including food preferences, films and much more. According to the portal, Reagan loved Frank Sinatra’s song “Nancy (With the Laughing Face)”, which the singer dedicated to his daughter. In addition, the politician liked the soundtrack of the film “The Sound of Music” of the same name.

Putin on the first day of the invasion, February 24, at a meeting with representatives of Russian business
Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed the Ukrainian military, who are now repelling the attack of Russian troops on their country, and offered to take power into their own hands.
The Kremlin said that Russia is ready to send a delegation to negotiate with Ukraine in Minsk. This was preceded by an appeal by President Volodymyr Zelensky to Putin with a proposal to sit down at the negotiating table.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine began early in the morning. At the same time, Putin’s address was aired. On Thursday evening, Putin spoke about the war, which he calls a special military operation, with business.
Now he spoke about this at a meeting with the permanent members of the Russian Security Council.
Literally, his words sounded like this: “I once again appeal to the military personnel of the armed forces of Ukraine. Do not allow neo-Nazis and Bendera to use your children, your wives and old people as human shields … Take power into your own hands! It looks like you and I will easier to negotiate than with this gang of drug addicts and neo-Nazis, who settled in Kyiv and took hostage the entire Ukrainian people.
”
Putin did not specify whom he called “drug addicts” and “neo-Nazis”.
It is also not clear whether the Russian president meant a military coup.
- The Kremlin: it is necessary to clean up Ukraine from “pro-Nazi people”
Putin’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov spoke about the Ukrainian government in a similar vein the day before. The purpose of the invasion of Ukraine, he called the “demilitarization” and “denazification” of the country. Responding to a request to explain what “denazification” is, Peskov said: “Ideally, Ukraine should be liberated, cleaned from the Nazis. From pro-Nazi people and ideology.”
On Friday, a Kremlin spokesman said that Russia was ready to send a delegation to Minsk for talks with Ukraine. This was preceded by an appeal by President Volodymyr Zelensky to Putin.
- Zelensky offered negotiations to Putin. The Kremlin is ready to send a delegation to Minsk
The Kremlin is ready to send a delegation to Minsk “I want to appeal to the President of the Russian Federation again. Fighting is going on all over Ukraine. Let’s sit down at the negotiating table. To stop the death of people,” Zelensky said.
In a nightly speech in which the President of Ukraine announced the deaths of 137 Ukrainians on the first day of the invasion, he said that Kyiv was not afraid of talking about the country’s neutral status. These words drew attention in the Kremlin.

“This is more of a move towards the positive.
Now we have to analyze it. I can’t say more yet,” Peskov said at the daily briefing. Later, he announced Moscow’s readiness for negotiations with Kyiv in Minsk and again interpreted Zelensky’s words as if he “declared his readiness to discuss the neutral status of Ukraine.”
“In this context, in response to Zelensky’s proposal, Vladimir Putin is ready to send a Russian delegation to Minsk at the level of representatives of the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the presidential administration for negotiations with the Ukrainian delegation,” the Kremlin spokesman said.
Later, Peskov clarified – “after a short pause,” as he claims, the Ukrainians said that “they are reconsidering the idea with Minsk and now they want to go to Warsaw, and after that they completely left the connection and took a break.” “And this pause has been going on for quite some time,” he added.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said earlier on Friday that Zelensky was “telling lies” about his readiness to discuss a neutral status.

UNESCO City of Music – Tallinn invites you to International Music Day
On Saturday, October 1, the International Music Day, initiated by UNESCO, will be celebrated as Tallinn for the first time as a UNESCO City of Music. On this occasion, free concerts will be held throughout the city.
The purpose of the International Music Day is to draw attention to the field of music, musicians, as well as to the world of sounds around us.
Tallinn has been included in the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN) in the City of Music category since November 2021. To date, the network of cities of music includes 59cities around the world.
“Tallinn’s goal as a city of music is to create an environment that provides the best conditions for creating and enjoying music in all its diversity,” said Vice Mayor Kaarel Oja. – To achieve this goal, we work every day, developing a variety of initiatives in the field of music. Music Day, October 1, is a holiday that allows you to demonstrate the musical life of the capital at the highest level and in all its diversity. At the heart of the celebrations is the opening of the MUBA School of Music and Ballet, whose impact on the music industry we have yet to realize.”
According to Ivari Ilja, president of the Estonian Music Council and board member of the UNESCO City of Music in Tallinn, music’s ability to relate to an ever-changing world is unique. “Music can overcome linguistic and cultural boundaries, convey the depth of feelings and human consciousness directly, without translation.
This is a gift that we should appreciate. In 1975, violinist and then President of the International Music Council Yehudi Menuhin proclaimed International Music Day, which emphasizes the importance of music to all people around the world. We need to be grateful that we have music and people who can create and perform it, enlivening sounds and making us all better, ”added Ilya.
In Estonia, Music Day has been celebrated for 20 years, initiated by the Estonian Music Council – in the last 9 years, with a large-scale concert program, in which live music is played all over Estonia. In collaboration with talented performers and organizers, musical events are held throughout the country.

June 12 is the Day of Russia, one of the youngest holidays, because of which the labor calendar “reddens”. The fact that this day is a day off is spelled out in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.
This year the holiday falls on Sunday, so its celebration is postponed to Monday and we will rest for three days.
Day of Russia appeared in 1990, but not immediately in the form in which we know it today.
32 years ago, on June 12, 1990, at the first Congress of People’s Deputies of the RSFSR, the Declaration on the Sovereignty of Russia was adopted, and our country also received a new name – the Russian Federation.
The constitution became the main guarantor, and the country, in fact, gained independence – along with other republics that had been part of the Soviet Union for many years.
A year later, the new country got a president, on that day the Russians elected Boris Yeltsin. In 1994, the head of state signed a decree: June 12 was recognized as a public holiday – the Day of the Declaration of State Sovereignty of the Russian Federation. But for the people, the long name was shortened to “independence day.” By the way, Yeltsin also proposed calling the holiday the Day of Russia at 1998, but the name was fixed only on February 1, 2002, after new amendments were made to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

One of the government traditions on this day is the presentation of State Prizes of the Russian Federation in the Kremlin Palace. The awards from the hands of the president are received by figures of science, art and humanitarian activities. Celebrations are held on Red Square, which end with fireworks.
In St. Petersburg, the schedule for the holiday is less formal: concerts and competitions in urban areas, festive film screenings and other activities. But the main thing is that we have three days off filled with interesting events.
From 9 to 11 June, the International Flower Festival takes place in St. Petersburg. The organizers have prepared a competition program, exhibitions and colorful processions along Nevsky Prospekt.

On June 12, during the Brass Band Defile, more than 450 musicians will gather in the Peter and Paul Fortress. So they will remind you of the tradition that Peter the Great laid down.
He created the Military Orchestra Service of the young regular Russian army and was a full-time senior drummer of the Preobrazhensky Regiment.

The Presidential Library Fund keeps evidence of the birth of world musical masterpieces
Dmitry Shostakovich
October 1 is International Music Day, established on the initiative of the International Music Council under UNESCO in 1973.
One of the ideological inspirers of this holiday was our compatriot, composer Dmitry Shostakovich.
He issued an open letter to the United Nations, where he asked to establish a Music Day and thus show its important role in uniting peoples and exchanging cultural experience.
All over the world, and in our country since 1996, the holiday is celebrated with bright concerts, performances by the best artists, performance of musical masterpieces. The Presidential Library stock contains many documents and rare publications that tell how many works were created.
These stories are sometimes difficult, like the birth of Shostakovich’s Seventh Symphony. In the digitized file of the newspaper “Leningradskaya Pravda” for the period of the Great Patriotic War in the issue of August 7, 19For 42 years, you can read a note about the preparation for the performance of this work in a besieged city, which became a real harbinger of victory.
On August 9, 1942, Dmitri Shostakovich’s 7th Symphony was performed in Leningrad.
Karl Ilyich Eliasberg conducted the Orchestra of the Leningrad Radio Committee.
“In a conversation with a TASS correspondent Comrade. Eliasberg said: “We have completed all the preparatory work. Now the orchestra team is busy with the artistic finishing of the performance of the symphony. The score of the Seventh Symphony was written for double the orchestra.
In the conditions of the blockaded city, this presented us with a number of difficulties. We invited musicians from army bands to work on the symphony. <...> Already in the first part, the sincere lyrical musical story about the joyful life of free Soviet people is interrupted at first by a distant, then more and more close and formidable theme of the war.
Piece by piece, until the finale, in which the solemn hymn of victory sounds, Shostakovich develops in musical images and sounds the idea of love for a free man and hatred for the enemy who has trampled on the happiness of millions of people.
Maybe that is why he was able to express so deeply and movingly the feelings of millions of heroic fighters for the freedom, culture and happiness of the Soviet people.”
<…> Shostakovich wrote the symphony under bombardment and artillery shelling. Karl Eliasberg – an artist of his time
The score of Dmitri Shostakovich’s Seventh Symphony with the conductors’ handwritten notes, which, risking his life, was delivered to the besieged city by a military pilot, can now be seen on the library’s portal. Here is the program for that famous concert, which also served as a ticket.
Many materials kept in the Presidential Library’s collections are dedicated to the work of Mikhail Glinka, who, as the critic Vladimir Stasov wrote, “has the same significance in Russian music as Pushkin in Russian poetry.” Both are great talents, both are the founders of the new Russian artistic creativity, both created a new Russian language – one in poetry, the other in music.
Olga Raeva: “And here Glinka is the first!”
Evidence of how the formation of an outstanding composer took place is kept in the Presidential Library.
Thus, Glinka’s notes of that period were published in the monthly historical journal “Russian Starina” for 1870:
and at rehearsals, but I became close to this first, in my opinion, composer of our century, as much as you can get close to an extremely eccentric person.
Some time later, Glinka confessed to Berlioz, “I understood that music is created by the people. It is time for Russian composers, who are still on the same level of random use of folk song motifs, to rise one step higher. Thus, the idea of a national opera was born in him, and soon, as it is told in the book by Alexei Gruzinsky “M. I. Glinka”, he writes to his friend:
“I have a project in my head, an idea… It seems to me that I could give a large composition at our theater.
The main thing is the choice of the plot. In any case, it will be completely national. And not only the plot, but also the music: I want my dear compatriots to be here at home.” Vasily Avenarius’s book “The Creator of the Russian Opera, Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka” (1903) describes the very beginning of the creation of the masterpiece:
“We Russians, as a matter of fact, do not yet have our own national music. To write a real Russian opera is my dream.” After these words, Mikhail Glinka sat down at the piano. An aria sounded in the room, now known to every Russian who has heard at least once the opera A Life for the Tsar. “This is something completely new, fresh and at the same time so familiar, dear! exclaimed the delighted interlocutor. “The theme is purely Russian, folk…”
Pyotr Tchaikovsky: “One can live only in Russia”
From the selection of materials dedicated to another no less outstanding world-famous composer, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, one can also learn about the emergence of masterpieces, about the foreboding of their author.

Well, and so on. 
Or run with wooden pistols to play war games when you can drive on the same phone in DODU. You just didn’t have such toys!!! 
And the taste of ice cream too. And even the trees of each childhood have their own height. Children cannot choose. Children can only enjoy what their time gives them. Because children, I repeat, live HERE AND NOW. 
With one of them, a young talented pianist Alexander Malofeev (AM) Irina Shymchak (IS) spoke. 
.. I think our tandem was able to convey this sublime joy in music. We had a very close-knit team. 
This homework took much longer than the actual recording with the orchestra in Kazan. 
I played a lot at Moscow venues and competitions. And then, at the age of 11, the first big competition in my life happened – Astana Piano Passion, where for the first time I played Grieg’s concerto with the orchestra (moreover, I played it in its entirety – then the rules allowed). After this competition, when I returned to Moscow, I had my first solo concerts, I began to go on big stages, often playing with orchestras. The teacher and I planned the repertoire, taking into account future performances, sometimes a year in advance. I think that at the moment when I was eleven years old, I caught fire with music myself. And at twelve, after winning the VIII International Tchaikovsky Competition for Youth in Moscow, I moved to the Gnessin School and continued to study there with my own teacher. Of course, in Gnesinka it was much easier for me than before. 
We have a very warm relationship, and when a year ago I entered the Moscow Conservatory to Sergei Leonidovich Dorensky, our communication was not interrupted. I love meeting her every time. Her opinion, I think, will always be one of the most valuable for me. 
It was then that I probably really felt the responsibility of the performer to the public, to the people who believe in you and support you. It was truly a turning point, a moment of growing up. I realized that the choice had been made. And then in 2014 there was Gnesinka with its amazing atmosphere, largely created by our director Mikhail Sergeevich Khokhlov. My work rhythm has accelerated significantly. 
In Gnesinka, I finally found my home, got into an atmosphere of creativity and communication with people obsessed with the same. We discussed everything together and now we study together at the conservatory. I think it is very important for a musician to be in his habitat as soon as possible, including next to older comrades. 
It was a difficult period. I had to repeat Bach and the etudes the day before. Much, of course, was in the hands, so the impromptu was a success. As a result, he played Beethoven’s Appassionata, Rachmaninov’s Second Sonata, Chopin’s Etude, Liszt’s Mazepa. 
This short period, which I spent with Sergei Leonidovich, became for me the most peaceful time in my still not very long life. I guess I really found myself. 
For a musician, if we do not take into account independent work at the instrument, when solitude is a plus, distance learning with a teacher in the specialty, and with other teachers, certainly loses in quality. The very process of personal communication, attitude, experience of the teacher are of great importance, and the screen does not let you feel it. It doesn’t make up for it. In addition, sound refraction inevitably arises, this is a purely technical, but gigantic problem. 
To be frank, not a single large concert agency will deal with a website, a schedule, listen to an artist like the closest person. 
Actually, after 11 years, I very actively began to expand the repertoire. I burned with this music, it corresponded to my cheerful mood for the future, and so far the Third Prokofiev is the most popular concerto in my repertoire in terms of performances. 
Does your reading of these concertos change with age? 
I’ve put it aside now, I’m learning something new. I really look forward to when it is needed, because, it seems to me, along with the Third Rachmaninov, it is the most difficult in form, content and load, of course. 
In terms of drama, semantic fullness and, at the same time, clarity of topics, I cannot compare it with any piano work. In this sense, it requires an infinite amount of time. 
.. There is something mystical about it, it seems to me. 
These are absolute gods for me. But when I’m on stage, only the piano exists for me, and I can express anything behind it, everything that I feel at the moment. It seems to me that composers themselves retreat before their own creations, as if receding into the background, leaving the music to live its own life. 
What would you take from each of them for yourself, what qualities appeal to you? 
Do you remember what he told you then? 
I don’t think anyone has ever seen him worried or angry. This is an example of the very power that can be hidden behind any face and any hands, but it is incredibly attractive. You look mesmerized. 
Otherwise, anxiety appears and covers a feeling of prostration. Lack of halls, lack of spectators … But this problem is not only mine now. 
Much more often I communicate with the instrument. 
Yelagin Apart 
This year, Oksana decided to take another child – her youngest son is now 4 years old. 
This was necessary in order to start the procedure for registering a foster family,” says Oksana. – Somehow colleagues went to a social rehabilitation center with volunteer help, I asked them to go with them. There I saw a girl, she was with her brother. Twins. I fell in love with her so much, right at first sight! And she began to collect documents, to study at the “School of Foster Parents”. 
In addition, the transfer of a child to a “guest” family can serve as the first step towards adoption, an opportunity for adults and the baby to get to know each other better, to understand whether they can live together. 
According to the woman, it never occurred to her that such information should be hidden from children or others. 
Oksana never noticed condemnation and sidelong glances at herself and does not understand why this, in principle, can be something shameful. Of course, at first, Oksana’s mother and grandmother got used to the adopted grandchildren, but now they treat them the same way as their relatives. 
In her opinion, a person is formed by the environment: family, friends, relatives, but definitely not heredity. Shifting problems to genetics is just a removal of responsibility from yourself when you overlooked something, missed something, the woman is sure. 
But there are restrictions: more than eight children, including relatives, cannot be brought up in a foster family. If a child has siblings, then the family should take them all. Separation is allowed in rare cases. The amount of remuneration for foster parents, the amount for the maintenance of children, measures of social support for the family are determined by regional legislation. 
Nine graduates have already adopted children into their families. About 200 families are registered in the center, in which more than 300 children are brought up. 
Families gather in the center to talk, discuss pressing problems and questions. 
Child care fees on military installations are based on total family income, and the cost of child care is subsidized by DoD.
These factors are described in detail below.
A Gold Star Spouse is the surviving spouse of a service member killed in a combat-related incident.
In these cases, the child must reside with and be supported by this person while their eligible sponsor is absent. A special power of attorney to act “in loco parentis” is required to be on file.
MCC uses the following aspects of a request to calculate waitlist sequence:
If the program user finds that the family’s sponsor type and/or spouse status was incorrect, and it affects the request’s waitlist sequence once the program corrects it in MCC (i.e., the family’s request is no longer first in sequence), the program user must withdraw the offer and offer care to the next request in sequence on the waitlist. See Manage Enrollment for instructions on what actions to take in MCC if the family’s military family type is incorrect.
To improve military members’ access to child care, the Office of the Secretary of Defense directed changes to policy that include supplanting lower priority patrons when necessary. Under the new policy, lower priority families enrolled at a facility-based program may receive written notification that their child will be disenrolled in 45 days to accommodate a higher priority family. If supplanted, families can reapply for care.
Over thirty years later, the military’s childcare system is considered a gold standard. It is safe, highly regulated, and affordable—but only if you can gain access. Military childcare is touted as a benefit for service members, but at most installations, small capacity and staffing shortages mean this benefit is fairly limited. As one Army officer with a physician spouse stated, “It’s not much of a benefit when there is no chance my child will get care.”
Mid-careerists are more likely to have children under five years old—childcare aged—than they were thirty years ago. Nearly one-third of military spouses who want to work report they can’t find childcare. National employment trends, along with evidence from Blue Star Families, indicate that up to 60 percent of those spouses either are employed or desire to work outside the home. Put it all together, and the demand for childcare is high.
” Consistently, this number hovers around 78 percent—meaning that 22 percent of military families who need childcare can’t access it. This figure is consistent with Blue Star Families’ 2020 Military Family Lifestyle Comprehensive Report, which showed that 23 percent of active duty families who have a childcare need were unable to find childcare.
At Fort Wainwright, Alaska, the Child and Youth Services director estimates that dual-military and single-soldier families will wait about twelve months from the date they require childcare before being offered a slot at the child development center (CDC). At Fort Bliss, Texas, a dual-military family got placement at the CDC only after the mother had to bring her infant twins to work with her. Her brigade commander intervened and secured childcare at the CDC. Her experience is reflective of many others: when CDCs are inaccessible, there are often no reasonable or affordable options.
Instead, policies like these shift the burden from one family type to another. Current plans, like the one briefed by Acting Secretary of the Army for Installations, Energy, and Environment J.E. “Jack” Surash to Congress in May 2021, cite a ten-year, construction-heavy plan that will bring CDC capacity nearly to the level it requires today. While important to improve physical capacity, building for today’s numbers over the next ten years fails to solve current problems.
The current system, and arguably the current marketing, do not give military families accurate and useful projections on childcare availability. The wait list is a black box algorithm. Inputs include factors such as family status and priority level, time on the wait list, child’s age, and requested care date—but no one can explain to families how they are prioritized and offered childcare spots. DoD’s official childcare website offers an estimated placement date. However, those placement dates are not precise (for example, “May to June 2022,” as opposed to a specific date), and are known for being incredibly inaccurate. Families often show up to a duty station expecting childcare, only to learn they were “bumped” back on the wait list and now have an indefinite wait.
Further, CYS staff is not required to offer care to prospective families until six weeks after the date of requested care. Families are left in the dark, or at the mercy of CYS administration.
This change has the potential to have an immediate impact on childcare capacity across DoD. Many installations, including those tagged for construction of new childcare facilities, are not using all the classrooms in current facilities due to staffing shortages. While staffing data is not publicly available, anecdotal evidence from military families across the country shows that many CDCs are understaffed. Increased staffing would immediately result in increased capacity, and likely remove a significant number of children from the wait lists. Adequate staffing not only increases CDC capacity, but also improves the quality of life for current staff. Better work conditions, including a higher wage, can contribute to higher job satisfaction and retention. Higher retention reduces turbulence for our military children, and allows CDC administrators to invest time in training and mentoring current staff, which can also help reduce turnover.
The hourly rate for entry-level military childcare direct-care staff starts at $13.73 per hour, or $28,558.40 annually (before taxes, assuming a forty-hour work week). At mid-levels, it’s just $15.02 to16.86 per hour ($31,241.60 to $35,068.80 annually). In some high-cost areas, the pay is adjusted—but not very much. For example, the starting rate at CDCs around Washington, DC is $15.68. This is a 14 percent increase in taxable base pay, which is inadequate in a market where a service member’s tax-free basic allowance for housing (BAH) is double the base rate.
For example, fee charts could be expanded to better capture high-income families. The current fee system allows lower-income families to access care at a lower monthly cost. However, families in lower income brackets pay a higher percentage of household income. For example, a family earning between $30,001 and $40,000 pays up to almost 12 percent of household income for childcare for one child, versus less than 7 percent for those earning over $140,000 per year. A family of dual-military O-3s earns about $163,000 annually, while dual-military O-4s earn about $190,000. At that income level, a family is paying around 5 percent of annual income for childcare. The current fee system grossly under-charges higher-income families, often at the expense of junior enlisted soldiers.
In this case, the uncertain event was the fee level at which the patron paid. I modeled the fee level uniformly—meaning each fee level was equally likely to occur. Then, I simulated a CDC with ninety-one children enrolled, and allocated twenty-four direct-care staff to meet ratio guidelines based on various age groups. I ran two simulations: one with the current fee chart, and one with an updated fee chart that captured families earning up to $190,000 per year. After one thousand iterations each, the revised fee chart model resulted in a 14.5 percent increase in gross revenue. In my hypothetical scenario, this generates enough revenue to pay direct-care staff an extra $278 (low end) to $314 (high end) per month. Restructuring the fees charts to be more equitable and capture high-earning families could go a long way in funding increases in direct-care worker salaries.
CCA fee assistance is the approved alternative when CDCs cannot meet demand but presents significant barriers for families. When my family lived in Boston without military bases nearby, we navigated the Army’s fee assistance program. It required a mountain of paperwork from both us and the daycare upfront; it took months to process; and the CCA program failed to provide status updates. Not only was the process cumbersome and bureaucratic, but the fee assistance we received seemed to fluctuate month to month.
For the CCA system to be more equitable, the fee assistance rate needs to adjust in tandem with COLA and BAH.

Instead of encouraging men to take advantage of such a position, Abe’s plan seems to take a reverse view of the problem, in which a woman stays at home and devotes herself entirely to raising children. Undoubtedly, this picture is caused by Prime Minister Abe’s recent slogan “3 years with a child.”

Implementing such changes at the individual workplace level will be up to each company’s executives, but the government, for its part, can speed up the process through policy measures such as increasing overtime pay in the bylaws. 
Research interests: technology, social reproduction, the future of work; member of the international feminist group Laboria Cuboniks. Author of Beyond Explicit: Pornography and the Displacement of Sex (SUNY Press, 2014), Xenofeminism (Polity, 2018), After Work: The Politics of Free Time (Verso, 2018, with Nick Srnicek) , as well as the Russian translation of The Xenofeminist Manifesto, Laboria Cuboniks, 2018) 
The article explores changes in the organization of social reproduction in high income societies and outlines the emerging crisis of care caused by the diminishing role of the state, stagnant wages, and an aging population. The article then sets out a post-labor vision of caring work that serves as a response to this crisis. 
Since the 2008 crisis, high-income countries have experienced high unemployment rates and a very slow recovery in employment growth. Now a new wave of technology threatens to automate a wide range of existing jobs, pushing even more people into unemployment and underemployment in the future. The result is a growing surplus of population that lacks both the means to survive outside of capitalism and the jobs to survive within it. This fact clearly causes serious concern, as can be seen from the many reports from think tanks, international symposiums and cross-party studies of the future of work. 
In this chapter, we will attempt to develop a deeper understanding of the current challenges facing working in high-income countries and suggest possible solutions to these challenges. To do this, we will focus on a complex, evolving, cross-border concept – care. Starting with the concept of social reproduction and an analysis of its role in modern work cultures, we will move on to the increasing importance of care for the countries of the Global North in the 21st century. In particular, following the latest trends and possible trajectories of the economy, we argue that care needs to be concretized and separated from the umbrella concept of service work (and service-based economies) and argue that the care economy is about to become dominant in high-income societies. . In conclusion, we will offer several possible solutions to help deal with the growing care crisis. 
The reproductive sphere was understood as a set of specific activities undertaken to reproduce the masculinized wage worker: cooking, cleaning, caring for children, etc. The productive sphere, on the contrary, represented the types of activities that produce goods and services: welding, programming, sewing, etc. Still, a distinction based solely on specific activities is not enough, given that the same activities can be assigned to different areas depending on the social context. A mother driving her children to school occupies a different structural position in capitalism compared to a nanny driving other people’s children to school, despite the fact that outwardly their actions are hardly distinguishable. 
Perhaps the most significant difference lies in whether the market directly or indirectly controls one or another area. Activities directly controlled by the market (including domestic labor or the activity of reproducing labor in exchange for wages) are subject to capital accumulation imperatives: the compulsion to increase both the efficiency of the work process and the efficiency of converting an input into an end product, united by the premise that the activity must bring income. And everything is subject to the requirement that these types of activities also bring profit. The market has a direct impact on the organization and implementation of activities. 
However, this area is not completely excluded from the above market logic; due to the time spent on unpaid reproductive labor, there is less and less time for wage work. Therefore, the imperatives of wage work can influence other activities, albeit indirectly. The organization of activities under indirect market control is also determined by such things as patriarchy, gender-based violence and, in the best situations, cooperation. 
Their work is the direct transformation of value into capital, formed from social service taxes and wages. We are definitely talking about an area outside the direct market logic (which is therefore under indirect market control), but which also relies on wage work (as opposed to the activities we do for our families or with which we keep our own homes in order). 
After all, the current crisis will affect more than one area or form of work. 
). However, even social democratic states were heavily dependent on the devalued domestic labor of women – something that feminists of the period sought to draw attention to. /b3ed7aaa5d881d9.ru.s.siteapi.org/img/10dcb71bc2d36b1b6ea0fff8d08659635befc90b.jpg)
People turned out to be unable to support dependent loved ones themselves (due to the exhaustion of financial, emotional, mental and / or temporal resources), or to receive adequate support from the state. 
Poor women are (usually) the brunt of these changes. 
As we shall see, they will be dominated by care, maintenance and reproduction work, both in terms of employment and in terms of GDP – two limited, conditional, but culturally marked means of assessing social significance and value. 
Having done this, we will see that a significant and growing proportion of welfare economies are oriented towards and centered around reproductive labor. Take, for example, healthcare; it is a large and growing sector in the wage labor market. 
Reviewing the US government’s projections for job growth by 2024, one journalist recently noted that “9 of the 12 fastest growing graphs are different job titles for ‘nursing’.” Thus, the healthcare sector is huge both in terms of employment and in terms of its share of GDP. 
As shown in Figure 1, spending by wealthy G7 countries ranges from 15% of Italy’s GDP to nearly 25% of America’s. Simply put, social reproduction is a large and growing sector of the market. 
Data analysis shows that the vast majority of these growing sectors (including the top four) are jobs related to paid social reproduction. You can find similar data for the UK, where we estimate that 47% of total job growth will take place in social reproduction sectors. This data suggests that we are seeing a rise in the care economy. 
Support could also include the emergence of both part-time jobs and flexible work arrangements for caregivers, as well as legal provisions against discrimination based on the possibility of pregnancy. 
Most post-labor models of the future are presented to us as a world in which robots take over factories, and sometimes even offices. But the world of care work, oddly enough, falls out of these imaginary utopias. However, the post-labor response to the crisis of care argues that post-labor principles can be applied to both paid and unpaid work. This approach has at least three key goals. 
e). 
We also need to think about what technologies we want to include in the home automation area. How about assistive technology? Will we think differently about caregiver robots than assistive walking and weight lifting devices? Where do these different kinds of feelings come from, and how many of them can arise from ignorance of the moral value of the labor of caring – a moral value that, by the way, has been associated from the very beginning with ideas about the gendered / biased private sphere? Do we consider a mobile phone, a home computer, a bicycle, or a birth control pill as a household appliance? 
Some ideas associated with post-labor society suggest that reproductive labor is a source of inexhaustible personal satisfaction when workers are not interested in lowering their own expectations. Indeed, it is interesting to note how often high (i.e., extremely labor-intensive) domestic standards are mentioned in so-called post-work theories. 
Shared kitchens, laundries, and workshops can reduce labor. The fact that the resources of a shared household are used by more people than in a typical home may mean that there are opportunities for greater investment in tools and technologies, including those needed to keep clean. 
The reality is that many households have never had access to that fantastic resource of social reproduction, the full-time economist, because the cost of living is actually much higher. 
This problem is much more typical for queer people. If we imagine households outside the family category, we must imagine the formation of independent groups living together – a mixture of relatives, friends, comrades, lovers. These new kinds of families may be based on intimacy, affection, and a shared world view, rather than something as fragile as mere genetic coincidence.

Children can learn more about this rare profession when visiting a modern pavilion with an area of more than 4,350 square meters. m. The collection of the museum is divided into eight halls. There are visual exhibits and interactive complexes that introduce the history of astronautics and the prospects for its development. Children’s and teenage excursions are divided by age groups. The museum also has an exhibition of paintings by Alexei Leonov, the first man to go into outer space. 
Here they will communicate with robots from South Korea, Japan, Russia and other countries. For the thrown coin, the robot-beggar will repay by playing the hurdy-gurdy. The Cubinator will complete the Rubik’s Cube in seconds. A smart unit will answer complex questions. With an iron friend-athlete, you can play basketball. In the engineering workshop, children will be helped to create their own robot. The entertainment part of the exhibition is represented by virtual reality rides, science and dance shows. 
The children will be able to see a film about an aircraft, which was worked on by about 2.5 million developers. Through the passageways, which resemble the corridors of a spaceport, young sightseers will get inside the space shuttle model. In its bow is a command compartment with an instrument panel. Here you can steer the ship and perform its manned landing. 
Tours and master classes on assembling a Kalashnikov assault rifle are organized for visitors. Riding on armored vehicles and retro cars is available on the territory of the complex. 
The tour is supplemented with excerpts from the poem “Borodino” by M. Yu. Lermontov. 
During the Caribbean crisis, the facility operated autonomously, in anticipation of a nuclear strike on the capital. 2500 people took part in its service. The bunker was restored in 2006. Now a museum works here, they shoot post-apocalyptic films. The organizers have provided several types of study tours that will be of interest to children over 8 years old. Engineering rooms, a cinema hall, an entertainment area, a copy of the command post, a dining room are available for review. 
The exposition sites are dedicated to the history of the arrangement of underground structures, the protection of people from weapons of mass destruction, and the features of modern fortification. Thematic quests are held in the museum. A visit to the bunker by children will replace an educational lesson on life safety (the basics of life safety). 
Master classes and lectures are held for children of different ages. There is a spherical cinema where films about discoveries in the field of space are shown. 
The exposition in a small pavilion near the Paveletsky railway station will introduce the development of this transport industry in Russia. Old steam locomotives, AC electric locomotives, special equipment, badges, memorabilia, models of train interiors in full growth will arouse sincere interest among young sightseers. The children will visit the installed compartment of the Nikolaev era and the station manager’s cabin, and will be able to talk about the role of the railway in the past and future of Russia. 
Automatic exposure control is accompanied by the appearance of light and sound effects. Miniature rails, objects of urban and rural infrastructure, roads, the guys will look at for hours. In addition to models, the museum has a simulator where you can try yourself as an electric locomotive driver. 
The Urania Hall contains a collection of meteorites. On the second floor there are large and small observatories. Under the roof there is a large hall with a dome on which the starry sky is projected. 
m. Life is in full swing here – enterprises operate, vehicles drive along the streets. With the help of switches around the perimeter of the layout, you can control the movement of equipment, trains. 
Children should also visit the open training of dolphins, killer whales and pinnipeds. 
It contains over 120 vintage cars and motorcycles. The Lomakov family has been collecting equipment since 1959years, gradually restoring and restoring each copy. The collection contains cars that belonged to Bormann, Goebbels, Rockefeller’s heir, military attache of the USSR and the USA. Cars from the museum participated in the filming of Soviet films. In addition to rare equipment, boys can get acquainted with old bicycles, rifles, revolvers, things of the military era. 
In this case, the walk will be as informative as possible and will leave a good memory of a carefree childhood.

She is learning so much there and is so advanced for her age. She can recognize her ABC’s in a random order and wants to read every chance she gets. Her favorite activity is circle time at the center. She also started sleeping better at night. I feel the consistent routine has brought a sense of normalcy and peace to our lives. My daughter has a special connection with her teacher, Mrs. Sarah, and I commend her for helping my daughter to come out of her shell. Mrs. Sarah genuinely cares for each of the kids in her classroom. Rachel, the Center Director, is amazing! She has an upbeat, positive personality and is a joy to be around. She always makes me feel comfortable whether it’s answering random questions or concerns, taking special requests or just emailing me pictures throughout the day if my daughter did something funny or really cute. The overall staff there makes me feel very comfortable leaving my child 8 hours or more a day and I appreciate all they do.
Seeing my son run into his teacher’s arms when I drop him off in the morning reassures me that he is provided with loving care every day. I cannot imagine my son attending daycare anywhere else. KinderCare has truly become a part of our family.

During its vibration, the electrons interact with neighboring atoms in such a manner as to convert its vibrational energy into thermal energy. Subsequently, the light wave with that given frequency is absorbed by the object, never again to be released in the form of light. So the selective absorption of light by a particular material occurs because the selected frequency of the light wave matches the frequency at which electrons in the atoms of that material vibrate. Since different atoms and molecules have different natural frequencies of vibration, they will selectively absorb different frequencies of visible light.
If the object is transparent, then the vibrations of the electrons are passed on to neighboring atoms through the bulk of the material and reemitted on the opposite side of the object. Such frequencies of light waves are said to be transmitted. If the object is opaque, then the vibrations of the electrons are not passed from atom to atom through the bulk of the material. Rather the electrons of atoms on the material’s surface vibrate for short periods of time and then reemit the energy as a reflected light wave. Such frequencies of light are said to be reflected.
When visible light strikes an object and a specific frequency becomes absorbed, that frequency of light will never make it to our eyes. Any visible light that strikes the object and becomes reflected or transmitted to our eyes will contribute to the color appearance of that object. So the color is not in the object itself, but in the light that strikes the object and ultimately reaches our eye. The only role that the object plays is that it might contain atoms capable of selectively absorbing one or more frequencies of the visible light that shine upon it. So if an object absorbs all of the frequencies of visible light except for the frequency associated with green light, then the object will appear green in the presence of ROYGBIV. And if an object absorbs all of the frequencies of visible light except for the frequency associated with blue light, then the object will appear blue in the presence of ROYGBIV.
The papers are impregnated with a chemical capable of absorbing one or more of the colors of white light. Such chemicals that are capable of selectively absorbing one or more frequency of white light are known as pigments. In Example A, the pigment in the sheet of paper is capable of absorbing red, orange, yellow, blue, indigo and violet. In Example B, the pigment in the sheet of paper is capable of absorbing orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. In each case, whatever color is not absorbed is reflected.
The appearance of a transparent object is dependent upon what color(s) of light is/are incident upon the object and what color(s) of light is/are transmitted through the object.
We would like to suggest that you combine the reading of this page with the use of our Stage Lighting Interactive. The Interactive is found in the Physics Interactives section of our website and allows a learner to explore the appearance of actors upon the stage when illuminated with varying combinations of red, green, and blue light.

Today, about 71% of the sunlight that reaches the Earth is absorbed by its surface and atmosphere. Absorption of sunlight causes the molecules of the object or surface it strikes to vibrate faster, increasing its temperature. This energy is then re-radiated by the Earth as longwave, infrared radiation, also known as heat. The more sunlight a surface absorbs, the warmer it gets, and the more energy it re-radiates as heat. This re-radiated heat is then absorbed and re-radiated by greenhouse gases and clouds, and warm the atmosphere through the greenhouse effect.
Similarly, Earth’s different surfaces and parts of the atmosphere absorb solar radiation at different rates.
The development and spread of urban areas, especially using asphalt and other dark colored materials, can dramatically increase the absorptivity of the surface. This creates urban heat islands, where cities experience higher temperatures than surrounding areas. Hover over or click on the icons to learn more about these human causes of change and how they influence the absorption and reflection of sunlight.
Both processes can be accompanied by diffusion (also called scattering), which is the process of deflecting a unidirectional beam into many directions. In this case, we speak about diffuse reflection and diffuse transmission (Fig. II.14). When no diffusion occurs, reflection or transmission of an unidirectional beam results in an unidirectional beam according to the laws of geometrical optics (Fig. II.15). In this case, we speak about regular reflection (or specular reflection) and regular transmission (or direct transmission). Reflection, transmission and scattering leave the frequency of the radiation unchanged. Exception: The Doppler effect causes a change in frequency when the reflecting material or surface is in motion.
II.15 – When directly reflected or directly transmitted, an unidirectional beam follows the laws of geometrical optics: direct reflection (left): ain = aout, direct transmission (right): n1 · sin(ain) = n2 · sin(aout) with n1 and n2 denoting the respective medium’s index of refraction
The reflectance r is defined by the ratio of reflected radiant power to incident radiant power. For a certain area element dA of the reflecting surface, the (differential) incident radiant power is given by the surface’s irradiance Ee, multiplied with the size of the surface element, thus
Total transmittance is further subdivided in regular transmittance tr and diffuse transmittance td, which are given by the ratios of regularly (or directly) transmitted radiant power and diffusely transmitted radiant power to incident radiant power.
However, its advantage is the simultaneous description of the material’s reflection properties for all possible directional distributions of incident radiation, whereas the radiance coefficient generally is valid for just one specific directional distribution of incident radiation.
Light waves have different lengths. The wavelength is very short and is measured in millimicrons or nanometers (nm): 1 mm = 1 × 10–3 micron (micron) = 1 × 10–6 mm. A millimicron is equal to one millionth of a millimeter. Vibrations with a wavelength ranging from 400 to 750 millimicrons are perceived by the optic nerves and cause a sensation of light of various colors. Waves longer than 750 millimicrons are infrared rays, and waves shorter than 400 millimicrons are ultraviolet rays, both of which the human eye is not able to catch. 
Therefore, sunlight is a mixture of a number of rays with different wavelengths, which together create the impression of white. 
Orange is reflected and we see orange 
Invisible infrared, which has wavelengths longer than red, is behind it, and invisible ultraviolet, which has wavelengths shorter than violet, is behind violet. Each primary color of the spectrum gradually passes through numerous shades into the adjacent one. 
Three primary colors: green, blue, red – form white. 
The division of colors into warm and cold is based on the fact that red, orange and yellow can depict sunlight, fire, etc., blue, blue, purple – shadows, twilight, ice, water, etc. 
White color is also obtained as a result of reflection and mixing of not all, but only two specific rays. Two colors of the spectrum that cause the impression of white when optically mixed are called complementary colors. The complementary color to red is bluish-green, to orange – cyan, to yellow – blue, to yellow-green – violet. 
As a result, rays of light are mixed with and a yellowish green color is obtained. If the yellow layer were on the bottom, and the blue layer on top, then the result would be a bluish-green color, since the reflected light is always mixed with a certain amount of rays reflected from the paint layer superimposed on top. Glazing achieves great purity and transparency of colors; for example, kraplak, ultramarine, applied on a white surface with a transparent layer, bear little resemblance to these paints mixed with white. Showing one color of paint through another gives effects that often cannot be achieved by simply mixing paints. 
When two surfaces, painted in different colors and placed side by side, are simultaneously examined, a simultaneous color contrast is obtained as a result of their interaction. Skillful use of color contrasts can achieve a greater increase in the brightness and intensity of colors. 
Light and lighting
They are characteristic of surfaces that reflect almost all radiation of certain wavelengths and absorb the rest, usually in the usual way. Desaturated (pastel or pale) colors are due to less selectivity; they are characteristic of surfaces with low absorptivity, reflecting in a wide range of wavelengths, with the dominant role of certain wavelengths. They are like bright colors mixed with a predominant amount of white. 
When dealing with any color, we meet with a specular reflection or surface brilliance in the form of a dazzling glow. A pure rich red color may appear pale pink if it has a polished object that is exposed to light. Surface reflection adds unwanted white light impurities.

The absorption of solids is usually characterized by a very wide range of wavelengths (10–100 μm) with a large α value. Qualitatively, this is explained by the fact that in condensers. In media, a strong interaction between particles leads to a rapid transfer of energy given off by light from one of them to the entire collective of particles. All of these particles emit at slightly different frequencies, resulting in a wide spectrum. 
Moving electrons radiate, as a result of which a reflected wave is formed, carrying up to 99% energy (for details, see the article Metal-optics). However, it is possible to make a layer of gold foil so thin that it partially transmits light. It is also possible to sputter a thin layer of silver onto glass or other transparent substrate, and this will be a partially transmissive (approx. 30%) and partially reflective (approx. 30%) coating used as a beam splitter. The remaining ≈40% of the light is absorbed.

Between June 2015 and June 2016, the student learned and was tested on these 492 words (many of them with multiple definitions). They were all taken from her weekly reading.
Moreover, each word was new to her because each was individually selected based on a pretest.
So it is suggested to advance more into online tools than the elementary level. 
Below we will explain why it is worth adding a book to a universal textbook to increase vocabulary. In this review, we will present you 8 vocabulary guides. 
Also, next to each word is the page number on which it occurs, so if you want to know how to use it correctly, just open the desired page. 
In addition to written vocabulary training exercises, Oxford Word Skills has tasks for developing speaking and listening. 
This way you will fix the vocabulary in memory. 
You will often see these words in articles, books, news, and casual conversation. 
If you are studying on your own, listen to the correct pronunciation in an online dictionary. 
You can use all of them both for self-study and in lessons with a teacher. Learning new words using such aids will allow you not only to learn unfamiliar vocabulary, but also to learn how to use it correctly in your speech.

A Japanese program is considered to be a full-immersion program when 100% of class activities in all subjects are conducted in Japanese. Partial immersion programs can consist of any percent of certain classes, or parts of a school day (or combination there of) being taught completely in Japanese. In all cases Japanese is considered the target language / second language. Immersion programs are considered to be the most effective road to fluency among young learners of a foreign language.

From now on, the entire imperial family will be engaged in important state affairs. I would like to wish Aiko a happy coming of age and a happy life path. Twenty years ago, the birth of Aiko brought great happiness to the current Emperor Naruhito, his wife Empress Masako and the Japanese people. To celebrate Princess Aiko’s entrance into adulthood today, we remember memorable days for the entire imperial family. The current Empress of Japan, Masako, was born on 9 December 1963 in Tokyo. This happened a year before the first Japanese Olympic Games. In 1965, Masako’s father, who worked at the Japanese Foreign Ministry, was appointed First Secretary of the Japanese Embassy in Moscow, and the family moved to Russia (then the USSR). Masako at that time was about 1 year and 8 months.At the age of 66, she began to go to a city kindergarten in Moscow and began to spend a lot of time with Russian children. Masako’s parents say she literally “in the blink of an eye” got used to the garden and environment.
Moreover, she got used to & nbsp; this environment so much that sometimes it was difficult to say who she & nbsp; & mdash; Japanese or Russian. Yumiko, Masako’s mother, later talked about that time. Masako got used to Russian in just three months, and gradually it came to the fact that she began to speak Russian in sleep . The kindergarten she went to was located in such a way that it was attended by both Russian children and children from families of foreign diplomats living in Moscow and other foreigners. And the kids from 8.30 am to 5 5 pm communicated in Russian, and did it with great pleasure. But after returning home, Masako spoke Japanese. After a while, I noticed that she became practically “bilingual” Russia, a country where there is a lot of snow Around this time, Masako learned to ski. According to Masako’s father, former diplomat Hisashi Owada, in Moscow, their family spent a lot of time together. On weekends, the whole family went to the dacha of the embassy in the suburbs of Moscow, where the ride skis, skates and sleds.
In the summer we walked a lot and enjoyed the greenery in the vast parks of Moscow, and also traveled around the picturesque surroundings of the same embassy dacha. From that time, even as a child, Masako fell in love with the movement, which later helped her to turn into a very athletic girl. The happy life of the entire Owada family in Moscow lasted almost three years, more precisely two years and nine months. Upon completion of the business trip in Moscow, the head of the family was transferred to the post of First Secretary of the Permanent Mission of Japan to the UN, and the family moved to New York. entertainment associated with snow is undoubtedly an important memory for the current empress. When Aiko was born, the family of then-Crown Prince Naruhito (now His Majesty the Emperor of Japan) also began to spend a lot of time in winter fun in the snow. And when Princess Aiko grew up, then with the whole family she began to go to ski resorts and love to ski skiing nowadays Princess Aiko is great at mountain skiing.
These happy family moments become real for Princess Aiko value.________________________________________________________________________________ Midori Watanabe — well-known Japanese journalist and TV presenter.

Recall that on April 26, a resident of the village of Veshkayma, Ruslan Akhtyamov, killed a neighbor, took his gun and came to the Ryabinka kindergarten. There he shot the teacher and two small children, after which he committed suicide. At the same time, there was no security guard in the kindergarten – only an alarm button. The Minister of Education of the Ulyanovsk Region, Natalya Semenova, explained to Kommersant that there was no violation of the law in this. The fact is that the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1006 of August 2, 2019year divides educational institutions into various “categories of anti-terrorist protection”, with the main criterion being the number of students. “Ryabinka” belonged to the fourth category – “objects with a population of less than 100 people”, where there is no requirement for a security guard. At the same time, an interlocutor in the administration of the governor of the Ulyanovsk region, in an interview with Kommersant, called these conditions strange – “because in the fourth category there are the same children who also need to be protected.
” “We intend to revise the categorization of educational institutions according to the level of danger in order to increase their protection,” said Alexei Russkikh at a meeting of the headquarters. He instructed the regional government to go to the federal center with the initiative to transfer all schools and kindergartens without exception under the protection of the National Guard forces. “Because, as a rule, the security guards of private security companies today are people of retirement age, they are not armed, they only have a panic button at hand,” the governor said. “This is a problem for all regions of Russia.” 
The response of the law enforcement agencies to this demand was the same every time; after the Veshkaim tragedy, it was repeated by the deputy head of the National Guard, Oleg Plokhoy. “This will entail serious financial costs, for which we have not yet found sources of financing,” he explained. human”. 
” 
Kurinny, instead, the outpatient link should be strengthened: “It, being on the regional budget on a residual basis, is far from being in the best condition today. Meanwhile, it is at this level that it is possible to monitor the condition of patients and identify deviations.” 
So, in the east of Los Angeles, in the small town of San Marino, the estate of the railroad magnate Henry Huntington who lived in the early 20th century is located. During his lifetime, he invested heavily in art and on his estate amassed a rather interesting collection of books and paintings, the most famous of which is Thomas Gainsborough’s masterpiece The Boy in Blue (1770). A beautiful botanical garden was created around the estate, which is divided into several isolated areas: the Desert Garden, the Australian Garden, the Camellia Garden, the Rose Garden, the Herb Garden, the Chinese Garden, the Shakespeare Garden, the Tropical Garden, the Lily Garden and the incredibly beautiful Japanese Garden, opened at 1912 year. We spent a wonderful day in this unforgettable blooming place and photographed it for you. 
Today there is a large scientific and educational center. Many famous films were filmed on the estate: “Memoirs of a Geisha”, “The Wedding Singer”, “Charlie’s Angels”, etc. But let’s return to our Japanese garden. Its gates are guarded by stone lions. Behind them is a magical world of silence and contemplation… Let’s not anger the ancient lions and walk around the flowering garden in silence. 
Next time I will have to visit 🙂 Thank you for the story

How did it happen? 
But I always defend some fundamental points to the end. Sometimes, like any mother, my patience bursts, and, for example, I deprive my son of the phone. In addition, I limit the time of using gadgets, because if this is not done, the child will sit in them for days. 
After my divorce with my ex-husband, I did not doubt the correctness of this decision for a second.
