Birdland, Neuburg 2011 is a live album by pianist Cecil Taylor and drummer Tony Oxley. It was recorded at the Birdland Jazz Club in Neuburg an der Donau, Germany in November 2011, and was released in 2020 by Fundacja Słuchaj! Records.
The album was one of two that were produced from recordings that Tony Oxley found in his personal archives in 2020, the other being Being Astral and All Registers – Power of Two.
Reception
Michael Rosenstein, in a review for Point of Departure, stated: "One can hear Taylor working through his 'unit structures,' spontaneously delving into his language of malleable clusters, fluid harmonic constructions, and vigorous sense of flow. Oxley locks right in as an active colleague, finding a gripping balance to Taylor's thrusts and parries, jointly moving toward unequivocal resolution... Taylor didn't perform or record much in his later years, so this document is welcome, particularly as it captures the two musicians at the top of their game."
In a review for Stereogum, Phil Freeman wrote: "This duo set... features both men at the top of their game. Oxley's particular contribution — what makes him unlike any other drummer, in free jazz or otherwise — is his crisp use of cymbals and small toms that sound like he's playing a collection of tuned plastic buckets. He cuts right through Taylor's tidal waves of piano, keeping pace with him at all times and offering compelling counter-narratives. The recording, courtesy of German radio, is impossibly clean and detailed; you can literally hear Taylor's piano bench creaking during many sections. This is an essential document for any Taylor fan."
Derek Taylor, writing for Dusted Magazine, commented: "A Cecil Taylor concert isn't context conducive to conversation or inattention. Allowing one's mind to wander isn't a luxury to indulge in lest the sequential intricacies of the ensuing architectures become obfuscated. Even within the accepted degree of unspoken decorum, the German assemblage distinguishes itself in its collective engagement. Taylor and Oxley reciprocate with an unbroken, animated dialogue riddled with elaborations and instigations. The minutes evaporate, eventually adding up to an approximate hour that feels much shorter in mental sum. A musical alliance forged three decades earlier on a different German stage remains indisputably intact."
In a review for The Whole Note, Ken Waxman remarked: "Taylor was 82 at this gig, yet displayed no loss of interpretative power. Paradoxically in fact, his playing is more adventurous and masterful than on his first LP in 1956. Like a late-career interpretation by Rubinstein or Horowitz, this CD is both defining and definitive."
A review at the Marlbank web site stated: "It's a reminder once again how remarkable Taylor's sound was, how in alliance with drummer Tony Oxley in a setting that emphasises the power he exerted at the piano and once again how uncompromising his approach was. Full of an intrepid sense of adventure and a sense of freedom where he can do anything he wants to Taylor teases out the tiniest phrase to expand his improvisations into an infinity and the album has a unity to it, Oxley's free flowing multi-directional style swirling and rising behind him in a thrilling combination."

Kamchatka State Technical University () is a public university located in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia. It was founded in 1942.
History The history of the university is usually counted from the moment of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky Marine Fisheries Technical School foundation in 1942. Order of USSR People's Commissariat for Fishery Industry about technical school organization dated January 6, 1942 reached Petropavlovsk only on January 20. In the city began to build classrooms and a dormitory for students.
During World War II the Kamchatka fishing industry received an impetus to development: fishing was no longer seasonal, fishing began to be carried out from trawling vessels and not only near the shore, new types of products appeared and new types of fish processing and storage in the form of its freezing began to be introduced. The port of Petropavlovsk was expanded and began to be used as a transshipment base for cargo from the United States and Canada. The main user of the peninsula's natural resources, the Kamchatka Joint Stock Company, needed new qualified personnel.
In 1946, the technical school received a new name: "Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Marine Fisheries Technical School of the Ministry of Fisheries Industry of the Eastern regions of the USSR".
In February 1952, the technical school was transformed into the Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Naval Military School (PKMU). After the reorganization, students began to be called cadets, and the teaching staff included officers.
In 1960, the school began training radio specialists and opened a correspondence department. Engineers in Kamchatka began to be trained even earlier, since 1957, when in Petropavlovsk there was opened a training and consulting center of the Far East Technical Institute of Fish Industry and Economy.
Since January 1, 1991, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Nautical College and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Higher Marine Engineering School were transformed into an educational complex "Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka Higher Marine School" (PKVMU).
In 1997 PKVMU was renamed into KGARF (Kamchatka State Academy of Fishing Fleet). In 2000 it was renamed into Kamchatka State Technical University (KSTU). This name is kept by the educational institution until now.

The 2022 Big South Conference Women's Basketball Tournament will be the postseason women's basketball tournament for the Big South Conference for the 2021–22 season. It will be held from March 1-6, 2022 and all tournament games will be played at the Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina. This is the first time since the 2016 edition that the tournament will be held at a single neutral site location. The tournament winner receives the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The defending champions are the High Point Panthers.
Seeds With the addition of North Carolina A&T before the season, the conference increased its membership to 12 teams and split into divisions for the first time since 2013–14. The division winners will be awarded the top two seeds, with the rest of the teams being seeded by record, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams with identical conference records.
The tiebreakers operate in the following order:
Head-to-head record. Record against the top-ranked conference team not involved in the tie, going down the standings until the tie is broken. For this purpose, teams with the same conference record are considered collectively. If two teams were unbeaten or winless against an opponent but did not play the same number of games against that opponent, the tie is not considered broken.

The 1452/1453 mystery eruption is a volcanic eruption that took place in the 1450s.
In Antarctic and Greenland ice cores, a major eruption or series of eruptions is revealed as a spike in sulfate concentration, showing that the release in form of particles was higher than any other eruption since. Also, analysis of the ice cores pinpointed the event to late 1452 or early 1453. The volume of expelled matter is more than six times larger than that of the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo and would have caused a volcanic winter, a severe cooling of the entire planet the following three years. The link between the sulphur spike and the Kuwae caldera is questioned in a 2007 study by Károly Németh, et al. proposing the Tofua caldera as an alternative source candidate.
Climatic consequences of 1452–1453 event The 1452/1453 ruption has been linked with the second pulse of the Little Ice Age, which had started two centuries earlier with the Samalas eruption and other three unidentified eruptions.
A study by Dr Kevin Pang of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory drew on evidence found in tree rings, ice cores and in the historic records of civilizations in Europe and China. Oak panels of British portrait paintings had abnormally narrow rings in 1453–55.
In Sweden, grain tithes fell to zero as the crops failed. Bristlecone pines of the Western United States show frost damage in 1453. The growth of European and Chinese trees was stunted in 1453–57.
Mexican codices describe autumn frosts in 1453 that affected agriculture throughout central Mexico.
According to the history of the Ming Dynasty in China in the spring of 1453, "nonstop snow damaged wheat crops". Later that year, as the dust obscured the sunlight, "several feet of snow fell in six provinces; tens of thousands of people froze to death".
Early in 1454, "it snowed for 40 days south of the Yangtze River and countless died of cold and famine". Lakes and rivers were frozen, and the Yellow Sea was icebound out to from shore.
The eruption occurred just before the Fall of Constantinople, the last bastion of the once-mighty Byzantine Empire. The Ottoman Turks, led by Sultan Mehmed II, laid siege to the city on 5 April 1453 and conquered it on 29 May 1453. Pang found mention of the volcano's after-effects in chronicles of the city's last days. Historians noted that the city's gardens, that spring, produced very little. On the night of 22 May 1453, the moon, the symbol of Constantinople, rose in dark eclipse, fulfilling a prophecy of the city's demise. On 25 May 1453, a thunderstorm burst on the city: "It was impossible to stand up against the hail, and the rain came down in such torrents that whole streets were flooded". The next day, on 26 May 1453, the whole city was blotted out by a thick fog, a condition that is unknown in that part of the world in that month.
When the fog lifted that evening, "flames engulfed the dome of the Hagia Sophia, and lights, too, could be seen from the walls, glimmering in the distant countryside far behind the Turkish camp (to the west)", historians noted. Residents of the city thought the strange light was from reflection from a fire set by the Turkish attackers. Pang said, however, that the "fire" was an optical illusion by the reflection of intensely red twilight glow by clouds of volcanic ash high in the atmosphere. Many such false fire alarms were reported worldwide after the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa in Indonesia.
Pang said, "I conclude that Kuwae erupted in early 1453.... The residual volcanic cloud could have made the apocalyptic June 1456 apparition of the Comet Halley look 'red' with a 'golden' tail, as reported by contemporary astronomers".
