# Harrison-Gibson House

The Harrison-Gibson House, at 309 11th St. in Columbus, Georgia, was built around 1896. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
It is a two-story Victorian Gothic-style house with hipped and gable roof.
It was deemed significant partly for association with persons who lived there: it "was the home of Joseph Harrison, a salesman of shoes and boots, from 1896-1900. Also, this was the home of Carleton B. Gibson, who was superintendent of Columbus' public schools and who was largely responsible for the founding of Columbus' Industrial High School (in 1906) — the first of its kind in the United States. The purpose of the Industrial School was to provide the children whose parents worked in nearbv cottonmills with an academic trade school of high school ranking."
# Lasiopetalum adenotrichum

Lasiopetalum adenotrichum is a species of flowering plant in the family Malvaceae and is endemic to the Fitzgerald River National Park in the south of Western Australia. It is an erect shrub with hairy foliage, narrow egg-shaped to lance-shaped leaves and groups of white to cream-coloured and dark reddish-purple flowers.

## Description

Lasiopetalum adenotrichum is an erect shrub typically 25–50 cm (9.8–19.7 in) high and 25–100 cm (9.8–39.4 in) wide, its stems covered with rust-coloured, star-shaped hairs. The leaves are narrow egg-shaped to lance-shaped, mostly 12–48 mm (0.47–1.89 in) long and 5–24 mm (0.20–0.94 in) wide on a petiole 5–20 mm (0.20–0.79 in) long. The upper surface of the leaves has scattered, rust-coloured, star-shaped hairs and the lower surface is densely covered with mostly white star-shaped hairs. The flowers are arranged in groups of mostly four to seven on a hairy peduncle 6–12 mm (0.24–0.47 in) long, each flower on a pedicel up to 1.5 mm (0.059 in) long with a bract at the base. There are three further bracts mostly 3.1–7.5 mm (0.12–0.30 in) long at the base of the sepals, the sepals white to cream-coloured and hairy, with lobes 4.6–7.1 mm (0.18–0.28 in) long. The five petals are more or less round, dark reddish-purple, 0.7–1.1 mm (0.028–0.043 in) long and glabrous. Flowering occurs from September to November and the fruit is a densely hairy capsule 4.1–4.5 mm (0.16–0.18 in) long.

## Taxonomy

Lasiopetalum adenotrichum was first formally described in 2014 by Rachel A. Meissner and Damien A. Rathbone in the journal Nuytsia from specimens collected by Rathbone in the Fitzgerald River National Park in 2012. The specific epithet (adenotrichum) means "gland-hair", referring to the hairs on the foliage.

## Distribution and habitat

This lasiopetalum is only known from scattered populations in the Fitzgerald River National Park where it grows in low heath.

## Conservation status

Lasiopetalum adenotrichum is listed as "Priority Two" by the Western Australian Government Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, meaning that it is poorly known and from only one or a few locations.

# Lasiodora

Lasiodora is a genus of tarantulas that was first described by Ludwig Carl Christian Koch in 1850. They are often very large; body lengths of up to 25 centimetres (9.8 in), including the legs, are not unusual.

## Diagnosis

This genus can be distinguished from other tarantulas by the presence of hairs used for stridulation on the upper area of the coxae of leg 1 and 2. Males also own a triangular keel below the apex of the palpal bulb, females also have a sclerotized (hardened by sclerotin) area between the two sections of the spermathecae.

## Species

As of December 2023 it contains seven species, found in Brazil:
* Lasiodora benedeni Bertkau, 1880 – Brazil
* Lasiodora camurujipe Bertani, 2023 – Brazil
* Lasiodora franciscana Bertani, 2023 – Brazil
* Lasiodora klugi (C. L. Koch, 1841) (type) – Brazil

# Laudine

Laudine is a character in Chrétien de Troyes's 12th-century romance Yvain, or, The Knight with the Lion and all of its adaptations, which include the Welsh tale of Owain, or the Lady of the Fountain and the German epic Iwein by Hartmann von Aue. Usually known as the Lady of the Fountain, she becomes the wife of the poem's protagonist, Yvain, one of the knights of King Arthur's Round Table, after he kills her husband, but later spurns the knight-errant when he neglects her for heroic adventure, only to take him back in the end.
Chrétien calls her "la dame de Landuc", i.e. the noblewoman in command of the territory and castle of "Landuc", located near a supernatural fountain within the enchanted forest of Brocéliande. The lady Laudine's fountain, which magically generated a powerful storm when its water was poured into a nearby basin, was guarded by her husband, Esclados the Red, until his defeat by Yvain. After learning about his cousin Calogrenant's encounter with Esclados, in which the former was attacked and beaten for using the well to create a storm, Yvain took revenge on behalf of his kinsman by slaying Esclados in single combat. He then followed the mortally wounded warrior back to the castle, where he fell instantly in love with his victim's widow. Though distraught over her husband's death, Laudine was convinced by her vassals (especially her servant and confidante Lunete) to marry Yvain to ensure the protection of her lands.
When Yvain was invited to pursue knightly exploits with Gauvain (Gawain), Laudine did not want him to go, but relented when he promised to return after a set number of days. She provided her husband with a magic ring that protected true lovers from bodily harm and warned him not to be late; but Yvain, caught up in his chivalric quests, failed to come home on the agreed upon day. Laudine had a messenger retrieve her ring and inform her absent husband that he was not allowed back. After a resultant period of madness (spent as a wild man in the woods), Yvain engaged in a new series of adventures, fighting to aid others (such as the lion that gave him his nickname) rather than gain glory for himself, and eventually proved himself to Laudine, who accepted her husband back into her castle.
In the 13th-century Welsh tale of Owain, one of the Three Welsh Romances associated with the Mabinogion, the corresponding character is left unnamed, known only by her title: Lady, or Countess, of the Fountain. Her first husband is referred to as the Black Knight.
The name Laudine is generally associated with Lodonensis (or Laudonensis), a Latinized form of the toponym Lothian.
