Today the world community celebrates United Nations Day.

It was on this day in 1945 that the UN Charter, signed on June 26, 1945 in San Francisco, came into force. The United Nations officially came into being with the ratification of this founding document by the majority of its participants, including the five permanent members of the Security Council. As you know, the UN is a universal international organization, whose activities are aimed at ensuring international security and peace; it organizes cooperation and supports the development of friendly relations between states. The fundamental principles of the organization are the sovereign equality of states, non-interference in their internal affairs, peaceful resolution of conflicts, compliance by states international obligations, the collective participation of members of the organization in UN operations. Ukraine was among the 51 founding states of the UN. United Nations Day has been celebrated since 1948. In 1971, the UN General Assembly recommended that member states celebrate this day as a public holiday.


However, today World Polio Day, which has been celebrated since 2012 at the initiative of the international non-governmental non-religious and non-political charitable organization Rotary International and under the auspices of World Organization Health (WHO). date of this international day was not chosen by chance - on October 24, 1914, Jonas Salk, an American epidemiologist and virologist, was born, who developed the first vaccine against polio - infantile spinal paralysis. Poliomyelitis is a highly contagious infectious disease caused by the polio virus. The virus attacks the nervous system and can lead to paralysis or even death within hours. There is no cure for polio. Immunization is the only way to protect against disease. Safe and effective vaccines exist and are very important in protecting children from polio. Vaccination is carried out several times and protects the child for life. Since 1988, the number of cases of poliomyelitis in the world has decreased by 99%, and today only three countries have epidemic transmission of the virus. Nigeria, Pakistan and Afghanistan remain endemic. In 1994, South and North America became the first polio-free territories. Six years later, doctors and scientists managed to officially eradicate the disease in 36 more countries in the Pacific region, including China and Australia, and two years later, Europe also emerged from the risk zone, defeating polio in 2002. Despite the fact that this dangerous disease almost defeated, from time to time there are foci of the disease. WHO notes that the complete elimination of this disease in the next five years will save more than 40 billion US dollars. As long as there is at least one infected child in the world, children in all countries will be at risk of contracting polio. Ukraine is one of the few countries in the world with a high risk of a polio outbreak due to low immunization coverage among children. Strong lobbying against vaccination, skepticism and misinformation of the population about vaccinations in Ukraine are some of the reasons for the rapid decline in immunization coverage. According to a UNICEF survey, only 46% of the population has a positive attitude towards immunization. This has already led to outbreaks of infectious diseases recently in Ukraine, such as measles, rubella, whooping cough, mumps (mumps).

Anniversaries of the day:

385 years since birth Anthony van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723), a famous Dutch naturalist. Born into the family of a basket maker. Father died when Antonio was 6 years old. The native uncle taught the future naturalist the basics of mathematics and physics. The guy studied at the suburban gymnasium of Leiden. At the age of 16, he went to Amsterdam to become an accountant, but instead got a job in a haberdashery shop. There he first saw the simplest microscope (a magnifying glass that was mounted on a small tripod), which was used by textile workers during their painstaking work. Subsequently, he will acquire the same one for himself. After living in Antwerp, Leeuwenhoek returns to his hometown of Delft. Buys a shop, is engaged in trade in manufactory and haberdashery. Polishing optical glass was his passion. And I must say that he achieved great perfection in this matter. The lenses he made, which he set into metal holders, gave a magnification of 150-300 times. With the help of such “microscopes”, Leeuwenhoek was the first to observe and sketch spermatozoa, bacteria, red blood cells, individual plant and animal cells, eggs, embryos and other parts and organs of more than 200 species of plants and animals. He described his observations in letters (almost 300), which he sent mainly to the Royal Society of London, of which he himself had been a member since 1680. Leeuwenhoek lived enough long life- 91 years old. He was a contemporary (and peer) of the philosopher Baruch Spinoza, the artist Jan Vermeer of Delft. I was friends with the latter, their houses in Delft were almost nearby.

150 years since birth Nikolai Fedotovich Bilyashivsky (1867-1926), Ukrainian archaeologist, ethnographer, art critic. In 1902-1923. headed the Kyiv Historical Museum (then called the Kyiv City Art-Industrial and Scientific Museum). Investigated archaeological sites on the territory of Ukraine from the Stone Age to early medieval. The scientist did a lot for the development of museum business in Ukraine. In 1910 he became one of the founders of the Kyiv Society for the Protection of Antiquities and Art, whose activities extended to all Ukrainian lands. Searched for and collected manuscripts and artistic heritage of Taras Shevchenko. Buried in Kanev.


78 years since birth Lesya (Lyudmila) Vasilievna Dychko (1939), Ukrainian composer, one of the most famous choral composers in Ukraine. People's Artist of Ukraine (1995), laureate of the State Prize of Ukraine. T. Shevchenko (1989). Author of the cantata "Red Viburnum", oratorios "The Four Seasons", "India-Lakshmi", ballets "Predawn Lights", "Ekaterina Bilokur"; symphonies, liturgies. According to the apt expression of Irina Sikorskaya, Lesya Dychko “draws her choral pictures, making familiar colors glow with many shades, creating the finest sound coloristic weaving. And with every sound it testifies: only a Ukrainian could write like that!” Conductor Valery Matyukhin called Lesya Vasilievna "Ukrainian musical Kuindzhi". Lesya Dychko was born into a family of intelligent, musically gifted parents, who immediately showed their daughter's outstanding musical abilities. Her grandfather and grandmother were repressed, her father was brought up in an orphanage. As the artist recalls, her father had perfect pitch (he played Chopin by heart), and her mother was a great painter. The girl graduated from the Kyiv Children's Music School No. 2, extended her studies at the secondary special music school named after N.V. Lysenko. After ten years there was a conservatory, graduate school, where, among other famous teachers, her mentors were Konstantin Dankevich in Kyiv and Nikolai Ivanovich Peiko in Moscow. In addition to the conservatory, Lesya Dychko studied at art and theater institutes. Since childhood, she was very cheerful and optimistic. Relatives and friends called her "the eternal dreamer." She has not lost these qualities to this day. The composer herself cannot imagine her life without music: “I have a very happy fate. I have devoted my whole life to music. I if I were offered to start all over again, I would choose music again. Music, music and only music.

Early 1680s he served as court bandmaster to the former Swedish Queen Christina, who, having settled in Rome, patronized musicians, poets, artists and was a fanatical admirer of the opera genre.

In 1683 Scarlatti arrived in Naples and was appointed bandmaster of the theater "San Bartolomeo", and then the Italian royal court. At the same time, he continued to write music for Rome. AT 1700s composer periodically worked in Rome and Florence and completed his life path in Naples, where he taught at the conservatory. The composer's students were his son Domenico Scarlatti, A.

- a military bandmaster, the son of a military bandmaster, "the king of operetta", he had neither direct predecessors nor direct followers in his work. Incidentally, the music "Merry Widow" should have written Heuberger. But that "didn't work", and Legar he asked for it to be given to him. The troupe began to learn the roles, when suddenly the directors of the famous Viennese theater An der Wien listened to the written numbers, and said that everything was terrible and needed to be returned Heuberger or invite another author.
