The exhibition "Road of Life – Road of Labor" is located in the salon of the bus "Volzhanin-6270.06 Cityritm-15". It is dedicated to the heroic feat of civilian transport specialists on the Road of Life during the years of the Leningrad blockade. In the mobile museum complex you can see rare exhibits and even feel like a driver of the legendary "one and a half ton truck".

What is interesting about this bus? It was created on a voluntary basis, with their own hands. There is a proverb: if the mountain does not come to Mohammed, Mohammed goes to the mountain. In this case: if there is no opportunity to visit the museum yourself, then it will come to you. I think that this is very cool, – notes the director of the SPbPU History Museum Valery Klimov.

Military highways 101 and 102, also known as the "Road of Life", were serviced by various vehicles, including heavy trucks YaG-6. But the main symbol of the Ladoga ice road remained the legendary "one and a half" GAZ-AA.

The production of these vehicles began in 1932 at the Gorky Automobile Plant. Despite its relatively small weight (1,750 kg), the GAZ-AA could move on ice 20 cm thick. However, drivers often took risks and drove onto thinner ice, which often led to tragic consequences – many trucks fell through, taking their drivers and passengers with them. These vehicles were raised from the bottom of Lake Ladoga both during the war and in our time.

The "one-and-a-half" trucks transported evacuated residents of besieged Leningrad to the eastern shore of Lake Ladoga, and delivered back food, industrial goods, coal and raw materials for the enterprises operating in the besieged city.

In addition to trucks, about 100 buses, including the ZIS-8 model, worked on the Road of Life. Their production began in 1934 on the basis of the ZIS-5 truck ("Zakhar Ivanovich") – the flagship of Stalin's automobile industry. The design of the ZIS-8 was typical for buses of that time: a wooden frame with metal sheathing and a canvas roof impregnated with waterproof paint.

It is interesting that these cars were produced not only in Moscow, but also in Leningrad, and the Leningrad models were distinguished by their particular elegance: chrome parts and three-color paint.

Such a ZIS-8 bus is depicted on the body of the "Museobus", which symbolizes the connection of times. More information about the exploits of drivers and their cars can be found at the exhibition "Road of Life – Road of Labor".

This year, most of our first-year students are not from St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region, but from other regions. For them, the concepts of “September 8” and “the Leningrad Blockade” are something very distant. But for us, Leningraders, it is close. Of course, people should know about those difficult days of the blockade, they should remember, because there was no such battle in the history of all mankind. We call it the blockade of the city, but there were battles. The Battle of Leningrad lasted more than 800 days. It is hard to imagine that in the middle of the 20th century, people were dying of hunger. This is a terrible thing. History, unfortunately, does not teach, but it is worth learning from. History must be known, – shares Valery Klimov.

The participants of the exhibition emphasize that the excursion allowed them to take a new look at the Road of Life and significantly deepen their knowledge of this significant stage in the history of our city. Many people previously believed that the Road of Life was only a path across Lake Ladoga, but they had no idea that, in fact, the road was much longer and more dangerous.

The exhibition on the territory of the Polytechnic University can be visited by all employees and students of the university. The exhibition also interested residents of the Kalininsky district, who could not pass by and dropped in on a tour in the "Museobus".

The project "Museobus – Like a museum, only a bus!" is being implemented using a grant from the President of the Russian Federation for the development of civil society, provided by the Presidential Grants Fund. The museum bus will be on the territory of the Polytechnic (guest parking near the Church of the Intercession of the Holy Mother of God) on September 15 and 16. The exhibition will be open from 10:00 to 16:00.

The musical festival “Strauss Gala” marked the beginning of the new concert season in the White Hall – the 20th in its modern history.

You enter the assembly hall and are involuntarily surprised by its size… The hall is all white with a stucco ceiling, with huge windows in two rows, wide ceilings pouring in waves of light. Along three walls stretch choirs supported by light balustrades, – wrote the newspaper "Birzhevye Vedomosti" on October 2, 1902.

The history of the hall and the history of the university are common. The ceremonial opening of the Polytechnic Institute on October 1, 1902 took place in the White Hall. Many historical events took place there – from speeches of the country's political leaders to creative evenings of famous poets and actors. Permanent concert activity in the White Hall began 100 years later. On September 1, 2005, the hall opened after restoration with a concert by Vladimir Spivakov and the Moscow Virtuosi Orchestra.

"This performance became a kind of standard for all subsequent concerts in the White Hall," says Boris Kondin, head of the Directorate of Cultural Programs and Youth Creativity at SPbPU, who took charge of this work 20 years ago. "Since then, the White Hall has maintained an atmosphere of grandeur and is famous for unforgettable concerts of Russian and world stars, masters of culture and art."

On the opening day of the 20th season, guests of the White Hall were greeted by an exhibition of historical photographs, which showed how the hall had changed over the course of a century of its history.

The State St. Petersburg Symphony Orchestra "Classica" presented the audience with a double gift – a concert in honor of the 20th anniversary of the beginning of the new history of the hall and the 200th anniversary of the birth of Johann Strauss Jr. The Viennese "waltz king" Johann Strauss spent many years in his beloved St. Petersburg of the second half of the 19th century, leading the orchestra at the Pavlovsk Music Station and delighting the public, including the imperial family, with brilliant concerts.

And now, in our days, immortal waltzes, polkas and marches have filled the White Hall with the grace and atmosphere of a ball.

"Strauss's music is best suited to create a festive mood and open the anniversary concert season," said the orchestra's conductor, Maestro Alexander Kantorov. "I congratulate the team and the audience of the White Hall, and wish to continue to delight connoisseurs of great classics with such celebrations of music and inspiration!"

From September 10 to 12, a delegation from the State University of Management took part in the scientific seminar "Synergy of Technologies for the AIC. From Data to Solutions", organized within the framework of the Advanced Engineering School based at the Grozny State Oil Technological University named after Academician M.D. Millionshchikov.

The key issue of the discussion was the transition from collecting information to its intellectual analysis and developing effective management decisions. The participants also discussed the prospects for integrating digital technologies – artificial intelligence, big data, the Internet of Things and remote sensing – into the agro-industrial complex.

The event was attended by the Vice-Rector of the State University of Management Maria Karelina, the specialist of the Engineering Projects Management Center Vladimir Kutkov, and junior research fellows of the Scientific Research Coordination Department Anton Velichko and Dmitry Taldykin.

The seminar included a section with reports, in which employees of our university spoke about “Development of an optimization stochastic model for transport routing taking into account the spoilage of perishable agricultural products” and presented “Comparative analysis of computer vision methods based on UAV data for predictive assessment of winter crop germination”.

Vice-Rector for Research at GGNTU named after academician M.D. Millionshchikov Magomed Saidumov, who moderated the section, noted: "Digital technology has finally arrived on fields and farms. Now everything is decided by data and algorithms: from harvest forecasts based on drone images to smart logistics that preserve products."

As part of the visit to the Grozny Oil University, an excursion program was also organized for the representatives of the State University of Management: the participants got acquainted with the Science Park, High Park, the Center for Innovative Development and the GGNTU Museum. After the excursion, a working meeting was held with the management and scientific community of the university, during which issues of interaction, development of joint projects and promising areas of research were discussed.

On the final day of the seminar, the staff of the State University of Management held an open lecture "What is artificial in AI?" for students in grades 10-11. Vladimir Kutkov, a specialist at the Center for Management of Engineering Projects of the State University of Management, told the students about the principles and algorithms of artificial intelligence and its capabilities in conducting scientific research. The event allowed high school students to get acquainted with modern technologies and the possibilities of engineering education in an accessible form, as well as directly communicate with expert practitioners.
