A Clergyman's Daughter is a novel by George Orwell. It was published in 1935. It tells the story of a young woman called Dorothy Hare who loses her memory and finds herself lost in London.

Background
George Orwell spent some time living rough on the streets and working in fields in Kent so that he could understand what life was like for poor people. These experiences gave Orwell some of the ideas he used for the book.

After the book was released, Orwell said that he did not like it and he did not want it to be published again whilst he was alive. He did say that it could be published again if his family needed money after he died.

Plot
The story has five chapters which are each written in a different style.
Chapter 1
Dorothy Hare is a young woman who lives with her father, a clergyman. He is very strict and treats Dorothy badly. She spends her days working hard for her father with no time for herself. One evening, she is invited to dinner by a male friend, Mr. Warbuton, who sexually assaults her. Afterwards, she stays up late to finish some work for the church.

Chapter 2
Dorothy is  now in London with no memory of the past eight days. She meets a group of young people who bring her to Kent to work in the fields with them. When she returns to London, it is difficult for her to find a place to stay and after a while she is homeless and has to sleep in Trafalgar Square.

Chapter 3
Dorothy spends a night outdoors in Trafalgar Square. She is arrested and spends 12 hours in prison.
Chapter 4
Dorothy's father sends a letter to his cousin who helps Dorothy to get a job as a school teacher. The owner of the school is only interested in making money but Dorothy tries to make the classes more interesting for the students. The owner of the school does not like this and after a while she tells Dorothy to leave the school and Dorothy loses her job.

Chapter 5
As Dorothy leaves the school, Mr. Warbuton arrives. He tells Dorothy that someone had spread rumours about her behaving badly but nobody believed them anymore and it was safe for Dorothy to return home. Mr. Warbuton asks Dorothy to marry him but she says no and ends up back in her old routine.

The Advance Auto Parts Clash is a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series exhibition race held annually at Daytona International Speedway in February  the weekend before the Daytona 500, It began as the Busch Clash and was a 50-mile "all out sprint",  In its current format, it is made up of two segments, starting with the 25-lap segment, which culminates with the final 50-lap segment, The race, like the Monster Energy NASCAR All Star Race in May, carries no points for the winner but rather a large purse, circumstances which are supposed to encourage an all-out driving style not seen in regular season races, where one series mistake can largely ruin a season. However, due to the smaller fields, huge crashes in the Daytona 500 are uncommon.

The 1987 race, won by Bill Elliott, was completed at an average speed of , It stands as the fastest-sanctioned race in the history of NASCAR (though it was not a points-paying event).

Race format
1979-1990: The race consisted of a single twenty-lap (50 mile) green flag sprint with no pit stops required, Caution flags do not count.
 1991-1997: The race was broken up into two ten-lap green flag segments, the field was then inverted for the second ten-lap segment,  Prize money was awarded for both segments for all positions, The race had been broken up into two segments, because it was lacking competitiveness since restrictor places was used in 1988, The inversion rule needed some excitement to the event.
 1998-2000: The event was renamed the Bud Shootout, and consisted of 25-laps, the Bud Shootout Qualifier ran at 11 a.m. and the Shootout itself ran at 12 p.m.
2001-2002: The race renamed to the Budweiser Shootout, and expanded to a new race distance (70 laps, 125 miles), Caution laps would be counted, but the finish of the race had to be finished under green, except for the Green-white-checker-finish rule for the Camping World Truck Series, if necessary, A maximum of one pit-stop was required, The Bud Shootout qualifier was discontinued but the second round qualifying for Cup Series races was eliminated.
 2003-2008: The race was broken up into two segments,  followed by a ten-minute intermission, While a pit-stop was no longer required by a rule, a reduction of fuel-cell size (from 22 gallons to 13 gallons) made a fuel pit stop necessary, (In 2007, Fuel cells were expanded to 18.5 gallons) Many drivers who changed tires during their fuel stop, as time required to fuel the car allowed a two-tire change.     
 2009-2012: The race was expanded to 25 laps, followed by the 50 lap final segment, the race distance was expanded to 75 laps (187.5 miles)
2013-2015: The race was divided into three segments (30 laps, 25 laps, 20 laps, which online fan voting was necessary, deciding certain aspects (lengths of the race, requirements of mandatory pit stops, numbers of drivers eliminated, etc.) The total distance of the race was 75 laps in length.

Synopsis 
A moderate risk of severe weather was issued for the Southeast for the night of November 14 and November 15. It began in the overnight hours in Louisana and Arkansas. One tornado killed one person, another tornado in Mississippi led to several injuries, and in Montgomery, Alabama it destroyed a skating rink, but none of the 30 children inside suffered injuries.

Alan Garner OBE (born 17 October 1934) is an English author who writes children's fantasy novels.

Early life 
Garner was born in Congleton in the front room of his grandfather's house. He grew up in a town called Alderley Edge. His family told stories about the local area involving kings, knights and wizards. He played with his friends in the cliffs and forests around the town. He later used these experiences to give him ideas for his books. In 1953 he went to Oxford University but left after a few years because he wanted to concentrate on writing.
Writing career 
Garner worked as a labourer until his first book The Weirdstone of Brisingamen was published in 1960. It is set in the Alderley Edge mines and the story is about wizards and knights underground, just like in the stories Garner's family would tell. After the book was published, Garner gave up his job and started working as a television reporter instead. He made very little money. At this time, he started to work on a second book called The Moon of Gomrath. In 1965, Elidor was published, telling the story of four children who enter a fantasy world.
