Črna pri Kamniku is a village in the Municipality of Kamnik in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia. The name of the settlement was changed from Prapretno-Sv. Primož to Črna pri Kamniku in 1955; the name was changed on the basis of the 1948 Law on Names of Settlements and Designations of Squares and Buildings as part of efforts by Slovenia's postwar communist government to remove religious elements from toponyms. In the past the German name was Tscherna; the area used to be known for its kaolin mine, which operated between 1856 and 1990. Črna was the location for the mass execution of fifty local hostages on 8 July 1942 by Nazi soldiers as retribution for a Partisan attack on two of their numbers. A memorial to the victims of this event can be seen outside the abandoned mine. On a hill above the village is a pilgrimage centre with two churches; the main church is dedicated to Saints Primus and Felicianus and has a Romanesque design, although it was rebuilt in the 15th century and various additions were built at stages.

It has a double nave, unusual for this area, frescos on the interior. The frescoes are interesting as the scenes are set in real landscapes and much detail is given to clothes and expressions. A smaller, single nave, Gothic church, dedicated to Saint Peter, stands further up the hill, it contains a wooden painted ceiling dated to 1475 in the nave, although it is in poor condition, three 17th-century gilded altars dedicated to Saint Peter, Saint Lucy, Saint Laurence.

Hemlock Semiconductor Corporation is the largest producer of polysilicon in the United States. It is a subsidiary of Dow Corning founded in 1961, named after Hemlock, the location of its factory, its current facilities produce some 36,000 tons of polysilicon, ranking it among the top five producers worldwide. The company expanded with the Japanese joint venture partners Shin-Etsu Chemical and Mitsubishi Materials, for a new $1.2 billion plant opening near Clarksville, Tennessee. Though it opened in 2012, chemicals were never inventoried and no product was made; the plant was under negotiations in 2011 for a further $3 billion expansion, to keep pace with manufacturing competition from China. In December 2014, Hemlock Semiconductor Corporation announced the permanent closure of the $1.2 billion Tennessee plant, due to adverse conditions from industry oversupply and ongoing challenges from global trade disputes. Many of the fifty employees in Tennessee were offered employment positions in Michigan at the Hemlock Semiconductor or Dow Corning facilities, the rest received severance packages.

In December 2015, Google announced that they will buy the facility, invest more than $600 million to turn it into their 15th datacenter. Dow Corning announced that June 1, 2016 would be "day one" such that Dow Chemical Company will assume 100% ownership of the Dow Corning Corporation, concluding the 73-year joint venture between Dow Chemical and Corning Inc.. At this time Hemlock Semiconductor will continue as an independently run entity with three minority shareholders: Dow Chemical will own 40.25%, Corning Inc will own 40.25%, Shin-Etsu Chemical will own 19.5%.

Lorant de Bastyai was a member of the international falconry community. He is best known in the United Kingdom for establishing the Welsh Hawking Club, he was an honorary member of the British Falconers Club, the Hawking Club of Great Britain, the North American Falconry Club, the Austrian and French Associations. He was born in Szeged, Hungary in 1910, his father's love of hunting and racing pigeons fuelled Lorant's early passion for nature and birds in particular. A chance encounter with a visiting British falconer launched a career that would span 60 years and have a profound impact in reviving a sport that had become all but extinct. According to the English falconer Major C R E Radclyffe: "in the summer of 1902 my friend Prince Odescalchi asked me to introduce falconry to Hungary, it seems ironic that British falconers were asked to reintroduce falconry to the lands where its spread across Europe, bought from the east by the Huns and Magyars, first began over 1.000 years ago. In early 20th century Britain, the sport was virtually unknown and Radclyffe was one of only a handful of active falconers.

He sent Richard Best, falconer to the famous Old Hawking Club, along with members of the infant British Falconer's Club and a team of peregrines, to Prince Odescalchi where they enjoyed good hawking on the Hungarian plains near Tuszér. Sadly, the prince was killed in the Great War and the rebirth of Hungarian falconry was delayed." In 1930, Lord Géza Kiss de Nemeskér met a lady interested in falconry. On learning that there were no falconers in Hungary, Mrs MacLean arranged for a friend of hers, Colonel Stephen Biddulph, to visit with his falconers. Colonel Biddulph was a retired officer in the British Indian Army and arrived in Hungary with falconers from the north of India to set up a hawking establishment at Gödöllő. Lorant aged 16, was returning to school in Budapest from the summer break on his uncle's farm in Szeged, he chanced upon one of the Pakistani falconers travelling on the same train. Lorant spoke no Urdu and the falconer no Hungarian, but it was clear they shared an interest, Lorant was invited to Gödöllö.

It mirrors the growing awareness of the importance of wildlife issues in general and falconry in particular. In 1939, Lorant founded the Hungarian Falconry Association. Regrettably shortly after its formation, World War II and four years in the Hungarian army postponed the career path. In 1950 he established the Magyar Sólymász Egyesület, affiliated to the Budapest Zoo.

Such was the success of this school, Lorant was soon appointed head of the Aviary Section and, in 1953, curator of the zoo. Lorant and George Lelovich convinced the Hungarian Ministry of Agriculture to adopt new pest control methods. Shooting, which damaged the rice crops and fish in the shallow waters, was superseded by hawking. Fish farmers were taught to control herons with falcons flown at them from horseback. Hawks were employed to protect vineyards. Through their work, raptors were elevated from the level of verminous pests to that of valid assets in the environment. After learning much of his craft from men employed by a British falconer, in a strange twist of fate Lorant was about to return the favour. Following the Hungarian Uprising in 1956, he moved to Great Britain, where he was to play a major role in revitalizing interest in British falconry. Lorant came to Britain after the Hungarian National Uprising in 1957 to join his mother and elder brother in Stratford-upon-Avon. By this time, he numbered some of the greatest names in European falconry, such as Renz Waller, Gustel Eutermoser, Friedrich Remmler, George Lelovich amongst his friends and associates.

This helped him to secure a job with conservationist Peter Scott at his Slimbridge Wildfowl Reserve and subsequently with the renowned London taxidermist Roland Ward. At Slimbridge, among other projects, Lorant worked on the breeding scheme for the Hawaiian goose, nearly extinct except for the specimens held there, he was responsible for capturing migrating Russian white-fronted geese for ringing. In the late 1950s, Lorant was featured several times on Peter Scott's BBC Television programme Look. At Slimbridge Lorant met Nancy, to become his devoted wife and whom he described affectionately in the dedication of his 1982 English language title All My Life with Hunting Birds as "my best assistant falconer for so many years".

While he was working at the Newport Museum in South Wales, the idea for a Welsh Hawking Club was born. Publicity from the South Wales Argus brought other interested members of the public to the first meetings, before long, Lorant was giving lessons
