Today, January 29, 2018, Mobilization Day against the threat of nuclear war and other events are celebrated.

January 29, 2018 marks the national holiday Peter the half feed. The church today recalls the Apostle Peter, the first Pope. The people considered him the patron saint of cattle. The holiday was called "half-feed" because on that day domestic animals already ate half of the supplies prepared for them.

According to legend, before becoming an apostle, Peter was a simple fisherman, had a wife, 2 children and bore the name Simon. He was introduced to Jesus Christ by the younger intckback  Brother Andrew the First-Called. The Lord did not immediately make Peter an apostle. When he strengthened faith, Christ appeared in his house and cured his mother-in-law of fever. After this, Peter was named an apostle.

After the Ascension of Jesus Christ, Peter confessed his name more furiously than others. He preached the Word of God, and healing came from his words. For his sermons, he repeatedly ended up in prison. When he was imprisoned for the third time in prison, he was put on chains (chains). However, at night the Angel of the Lord God came down and set him free. Later these chains were found by Christians and saved them.

Peter went to travel. For all the time of his wanderings, he converted many to the Christian faith and exposed many deceivers. Having reached Rome, Jesus Christ appeared to him and foretold of imminent death. Peter was crucified by the will of Emperor Nero

On this holiday, they try not to weave, not spin, not to use sharp objects that resemble the teeth of a wolf in their work. To prevent the wolf from killing animals, a chain is hung on the outbreak, and stones (according to the number of animals) or a key are attached to it. It is believed that this amulet protects cattle.

According to signs, if a snowstorm is circling in Petra, there will be a lot of rain in the summer, and if it is frost, then this will cause heat and drought.

If the wind blew from the north, the weather will deteriorate and frost will strike, and if the month is bright on this day and has steep horns, then the frost will slightly compress.

Mobilization Day Against the Threat of Nuclear War

The day of mobilization against the threat of nuclear war is celebrated annually on January 29. This event marks the anniversary of the adoption of the Delhi Declaration on 29 January 1985. It was signed by the governments of Mexico, India, Argentina, Greece, Tanzania, Sweden. The document calls for a halt to the nuclear arms race. For this, a number of measures are put forward: control, reduction of stocks, the complete elimination of destructive weapons.

Ivan, Maxim, Neonila, Peter.

  • 1616 - Cape Horn is opened - the southernmost point of the Tierra del Fuego archipelago.
  • 1833 - the first city postal network in Russia was organized.
  • 1856 - The highest military award of Great Britain, Victoria Cross, was established.
  • 1886 - car birthday - Karl Benz received a patent for his first car.
  • 1908 - the first Russian flying club was established.
  • 1964 - IX Olympic Games opened in Innsbruck.
  • 1964 - Luge - Luge competitions were held for the first time at the Olympic Games.

The first Benz car, made in 1885, was a three-wheeled two-seater crew on high spoke wheels, on which Benz put its new 0.9-hp water-cooled four-stroke gasoline engine. The cylinder was located horizontally above the axis of the huge rear wheels and brought them through one belt and two chain drives. The flywheel in the form of a large horizontal wheel was under the engine. It connected to the crankshaft with a bevel gear and was used to create uniform rotation and to start the engine. Electric ignition was carried out from a galvanic battery, which was technically more perfect than the Daimler glow tubes. Unlike the wooden Daimler cart, the car had a frame welded from metal tubes. According to experts, the three-wheeled car of Benz was more perfect than the work of Daimler.

January 29, 1886 is considered the birthday of the world's first gasoline car, as it was then that Benz received patent No. 37435 for his car. However, one can only be surprised by contemporaries who did not pay attention to the greatest invention of the century. Neither this three-wheeled car, nor its followers managed to break into the markets of Germany and France. Until 1893, no more than 15 samples of Benz cars were produced and patented.

The first city post appeared in Russia.

On January 29, back in 1833, the first city post office appeared in Russia. The place where the city post office first appeared in Russia was St. Petersburg. This happened Akurat January 29, 1833. Organized mail network was as follows. The city was divided into postal districts, there were 17. In the postal districts, there were 45 points where mail was received. Conventional shops, working until late in the evening, were perfectly suited for collecting correspondence, which two postmen in each district assigned three times a day to the post office.

But already in 1848 they refused the services of shopkeepers, hanging mailboxes around the city. At the post office, letters were sorted, stamped, and letter carriers carried them to addresses. “Stamp couvers” for paying postage in St. Petersburg have existed since 1845.

And on January 1, 1858, postage stamps appeared in circulation instead of "stamp couvers." Trial designs of brands were considered. As a result, the Postal Department and the Expedition for the Preparation of Government Securities in 1856 adopted the drawing of the first Russian postage stamp. Alexander II approved the replacement of the “stamp cover” with a postage stamp.

The first Russian flying club appeared.

On January 29, in 1908, exactly 102 years ago, the first Russian flying club arose. As historians noted, in those days, in order to push the development of aeronautics from the primitive stage of development, Vasily Korn (college assessor) through No. 1/1908. Aeronaut Magazine called for the establishment of an institution that could promote sports ballooning ideas among the public.

It so happened that his voice was heard, and on January 29, 1908, the founders of the Russian flying club gathered in St. Petersburg for their first meeting. At the meeting, a commission was created, which was entrusted with developing the Club Charter. The charter defined the main mission of the created enterprise: to develop in Russia the idea of \u200b\u200busing aeronautics for scientific, technical, military and sports purposes; to organize joint activities of scientists and aeronautics enthusiasts.
  The club council, consisting of 35 people, was approved at a general meeting for a period of 5 years in November 1908. Another self-governing body was the general meeting. All private aeronautical institutions under his command that the club received the name "All-Russian Aero Club".
  When in 1909 Nicholas II began to patronize the flight organization, the word "Imperial" was added to the name. At the same time, the Imperial All-Russian Aero Club entered the International Aviation Federation.

Mobilization Day Against the Threat of Nuclear War

On this day in 1985 in New Delhi (India) at a meeting of the heads of state and government of India, Argentina, Greece, Mexico, Tanzania and Sweden, the Delhi Declaration was adopted. It called on the nuclear powers, as well as on parliaments and governments around the world, to end the nuclear arms race, as well as to reduce and subsequently eliminate nuclear arsenals and eliminate the very threat of nuclear war.

The document allowed enterprises and citizens to "carry out trade, intermediary and procurement activities without special permits." It was possible to trade “in any convenient places, except for the carriageway of streets, subway stations and territories adjacent to the buildings of state authorities and administrations”. The signing of this decree led to the fact that hundreds of thousands of trading people poured into the streets of cities.

In June 23 June 1992, a decree “On some measures to implement the decree of the President of the Russian Federation“ On freedom of trade ”was adopted, which, in particular, established that trade could be carried out“ in places designated by executive authorities ”.

86 years ago (1932) in Nizhny Novgorod, at the Plant named after Molotov (now the Gorky Automobile Plant), the first GAZ-brand car rolled off the assembly line - the GAZ-AA truck, better known as the “lorry”.

It was created on the basis of the American car Ford-AA, the license for the production of which the USSR bought in 1929. GAZ-AA was equipped with a four-cylinder engine with a volume of 3285 cubic meters. cm, which could develop a power of 42 horsepower, and a four-speed gearbox. Until 1934, the car’s cabin was made of wood and pressed cardboard, later they were replaced by metal. The truck had a fairly high cross-country ability on dirt roads, and when driving on a highway, it could reach speeds of up to 70 km / h.

GAZ-AA - one of the most popular Soviet cars. During its production, almost a million copies in various modifications were produced.

185 years ago (1833), the first city post office in Russia was established in St. Petersburg.

Prior to this, correspondence was sent only between cities and abroad, which created a number of inconveniences not only to ordinary citizens, but also to trading companies, enterprises and government agencies, which were forced to maintain a large staff of messengers to send various letters and packages.

In 1830, the State Council decided to organize a city post for experience in St. Petersburg. In October 1830, this decision was approved by Emperor Nicholas I, noting that the experiment would last no more than two years. Also, the “Regulation on the establishment of city post office in St. Petersburg” was published, where the main function of the postal service was determined: “for delivering letters from one part of the city to another without investing money and things.”

January 29, 1833 the first city post office was opened. Petersburg was divided into 17 postal districts. The city opened 45 reception centers, which were placed in ordinary shops. Postmen took the correspondence 3 times a day, delivered it to the post office, where it was sorted, and then delivered to the addressees. Forwarding a letter cost 20 kopecks, business cards or invitations - 10 kopecks.

The experiment turned out to be so successful, and already in 1835 Nicholas I signed a decree according to which the city post was approved on an ongoing basis. After 10 years, a similar service was opened in Moscow.

132 years ago (1886), the German inventor Karl Benz received a patent for his first car with an internal combustion engine.

It was a three-wheeled double crew weighing 250 kg on high wheels with spokes. The car was equipped with a four-stroke water-cooled gasoline engine with a capacity of 0.9 horsepower. The car, called Benz Patent-Motorwagen, developed a speed that was then high - 16 km / h. In 1887, the car was presented at an international exhibition in Paris.

On January 29, 1616, Dutch sailors J. Lemer and V. Schouten discovered the extreme southern point of South America - Cape Horn. They wanted to find a new path to the Moluccas, which were the main supplier of pepper in the lucrative spice trade with the East Indies, and thus get rid of the monopoly of the Dutch East India Company. They sailed south of the Strait of Magellan and on January 24, 1616, opened a new passage between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans: a 13-kilometer strait between Tierra del Fuego and the so-called Land of the States (now Estados, Argentina).

This passage was called the Lemaire Strait. A few days later, Lehmer and Schouten became the first Europeans to circumnavigate the extreme southern point of South America, famous for its storms and strong waves, and named it Cape Horn in honor of their hometown of Schouten - Horn.

On January 28, 1819, a squadron of eight ships anchored off the island of Singapore, and the next day, the Ruffles landed.

At that time, several hundred people from the Orang Laut tribes lived on the island. In the village at the southern end of the island lived the ruler of Singapore, claiming power over the South Malay Johor - Daing Abdurrahman, who had the title of Temengggung dating back to the time of the Malacca Sultanate.

On January 30, 1819, the Raffles concluded an agreement under which the Temengggung for 3,000 Malay dollars paid annually allowed the British to create a trading post on the island and pledged not to enter into agreements with representatives of other powers.

January 29, 1804, the opening of Kharkov University.In 1804, the Charter of Kharkov University was approved and on January 29, 1805 its official opening took place.
