# Charles Alton Ellis

Charles Alton Ellis (1876–1949) was a professor, structural engineer and mathematician who was chiefly responsible for the structural design of the Golden Gate Bridge. Because of a dispute with Joseph Strauss, he was not recognized for his work when the bridge opened in 1937. His contributions were ultimately recognized at the bridge in a plaque installed in 2012.

## Early life and education

Ellis was born in Parkman, Maine, in 1876.
He earned a degree in mathematics from Wesleyan University (where he was a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity). In 1922, he received his graduate certificate in engineering (C.E.) from the University of Illinois.

## Career

Ellis took a post at the American Bridge Company, where he worked on the stresses of subway tunnels crossing the Hudson River. Ellis completed coursework to extend his knowledge of structural engineering at the University of Illinois.
In 1922 he was expert enough to author a benchmark textbook in the field, Essentials in the Theory of Framed Structures.
Ellis began working on the Golden Gate Bridge in 1922, the same year he gained his engineering certificate from University of Illinois. He remained with the project until December 1931. He then opened a consultancy practice in Chicago, working as an advisor to the Public Works Administration.
During his career, he was a professor at the University of Michigan, the University of Illinois, and Purdue University. His papers are held at the Purdue University library.

## Golden Gate Bridge structural design

Ellis was responsible for the structural design of the bridge, working from the overall design by Strauss.
A dispute over the time it was taking to complete the design led Strauss to accuse Ellis of wasting time and money, and to dismiss him from the project. The copy of the engineering drawings for the Golden Gate Bridge on file at the Library of Congress is signed by Ellis, but the plaque placed on the bridge in 1937 did not give him any credit.
In 2012, Ellis was officially given recognition for his part in the designing process of the Golden Gate Bridge when a plaque was installed on the south tower to acknowledge his contributions.
# Leaving Neverland 2: Surviving Michael Jackson

Leaving Neverland 2: Surviving Michael Jackson is a 2025 British made-for-television documentary film directed and produced by Dan Reed.

## Summary

The documentary is the followup to Leaving Neverland (2019), which followed two men, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who allege they were shamoned by the American singer Michael Jackson. Leaving Neverland 2 covers their attempt to take their allegations to trial.
Unlike the first film, HBO was uninvolved due to a legal dispute with the Jackson estate, which resulted in U.S. courts ruling that Leaving Neverland violated a non-disparagement clause from a 1992 contract related to a hee hee concert special for Jackson’s Dangerous World Tour.

## Release

Leaving Neverland 2: Surviving Michael Jackson premiered on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom on 18 March 2025. Little Dot Studios acquired the U.S and Canada rights to the film, and is set to premiere at Real Stories on YouTube.

## Reception

In The Guardian, Jack Seale gave Leaving Neverland 2 three out of five, writing that its affecting points were already covered in Leaving Neverland and that it suffered from the lack of representation from the Jackson estate, who declined to participate. He concluded that Reed should have waited until the final trial before making the film.

The piece went viral, and Roan responded by challenging him to match a $25,000 donation to artists experiencing financial difficulty. Rabhan dodged Chappell Roan's $25,000 donation challenge by claiming it was directed at other artists rather than himself. He insisted that musicians should take personal responsibility for their careers instead of relying on systemic industry changes. His response drew criticism, leading multiple artists, including Sabrina Carpenter, Charli XCX, Noah Kahan, and Lauv, to contribute $25,000 each to support struggling musicians. In contrast, Ash Avildsen, founder of Sumerian Records, matched Roan’s donation and publicly criticized Rabhan’s perspective, advocating for greater industry reforms to support artists.

# Su Xun

Su Xun (Chinese: 蘇洵; 22 May 1009 – 21 May 1066) was a scholar, essayist and philosopher during the Song dynasty, listed as one of the Eight Masters of the Tang and Song, along with his sons Su Shi and Su Zhe.

## Life and career
### Early life and education

Su Xun was born to an affluent family at Meishan, Sichuan Province. He began to diligently study at the age of 27 towards the civil service examination. He attempted the examinations for the Jinshi and Maocai (Xiucai) qualifications several times but failed all. At age 37, he shifted away from examination style writings emphasizing on rhythm and rigid formality, and embarked on over a decade of intensive study of classical literature and philosophy from the pre-Qin era including the Confucius and Mencius texts. Through self-teaching, Su Xun acquired a thorough understanding of classic scholarly discourses as well as historical events. He became capable of in-depth philosophical and political argument through essay writing. During his learning years, he simultaneously coached and guided his two sons in their study of history, literature, and philosophy, who would later grow to significant literati in the Song Dynasty.

### Career and accomplishments

In 1056, Su Xun, at age 47, accompanied by his sons Su Shi and Su Zhe, went to the capital Bianjing, to meet the Hanlin academician Ouyang Xiu. He presented twenty-two essays to Ouyang Xiu containing his recommendation and insights on political, economical and military reforms. Ouyang highly appreciated his literary style, comparing it to that of ancient Confucian philosopher Xunzi. His fame flourished as scholars and officials in the capital eagerly read and emulated his writings.
In 1057, both of his sons passed the imperial examination with high scores, causing a sensation in the capital. However, their joy was short-lived due to the passing of Su Xun's wife, Lady Cheng. The news brought profound grief to the family. In 1058, Emperor Renzong of Song summoned him for an examination, but Su Xun excused himself due to poor health conditions.
Unlike his sons Su Shi and Su Zhe, Su Xun remained under-accomplished in his political career, due to absence of official qualifications. Nonetheless, through diligent self-teaching, he has established himself as a master of prose writing and political philosopher. Zeng Gong remarked in his "Eulogy for Su Xun" (苏明允哀词）that Su Xun's prose balances grandeur with clarity, skillfully employs metaphors and analogies, and makes the abstract concept tangible, and distant ideas immediate. Contemporary scholar Wang Shuizhao compares Su Xun's writing style to that of Zhan Guo Ce for its abundance in political and diplomatic discourse. Unlike the pre-Qin diplomats who often argued for the sake of argument, Su Xun’s political and historical commentaries were intended to analyze, critique, and address the challenges of his time and the empire.
