# Hannah Dadds

Hannah Maureen Elsie Dadds (née Head, 16 October 1941 – 26 November 2011) was a British train driver known for being the first female train driver on the London Underground.

## Early life

Hannah Dadds (née Head) was from the Forest Gate area of Newham. Her mother was a home help and her father worked in the furniture trade. After leaving school at 15, she worked as a shop assistant at the Co-op, and later in the Bryant and May match factory and the Kensitas cigarette factory.

## London Underground career

In 1969, Dadds joined the London Underground, working as a 'railwoman' at Upton Park Underground station. She then worked as a ticket collector and in 1976 she became a train guard. Train guards were also emergency drivers in case something happened to the driver or if there was an accident. While male guards could train further in order to become a driver, female guards could not. The Sex Discrimination Act 1975 removed this barrier, and many women applied to become Tube train drivers. Dadds was one of the first to qualify for the programme.
In 1978, Dadds completed a seven-week training course to qualify as a train driver, and became a driver on the District line. In doing so, she became the first female train driver on the London Underground. This was big news and newspapers and radio stations wanted to interview her after news of her appointment was leaked from head office. Instead of completing her training in the usual way, she was asked to stay off work for a few days to allow staff at 55 Broadway (London Transport's head office) time to organise a press conference.
It has been suggested that Dadds could have been selected to drive the first Jubilee line train in 1979, she could not drive due to a foot injury.
Hannah's sister Edna also joined the London Underground. Edna also worked first as a guard and then became a driver. Hannah and Edna became the first all-female crew on the London Underground.
While the Dadds sisters were able to work in previously male positions, the working culture remained masculinized. A male coworker described them as being "like men... They swore more than we did, they smoked more than we did and they gave a lot of lip to the management, more than we did."
Dadds worked as a driver with the London Underground until she took early retirement in 1993, after which she moved to Spain. The London Transport Museum made an oral history recording with Dadds in 1993 in which she described her career.
In 2004, she was invited to a Queen's Women of Achievement lunch at Buckingham Palace; other women attending that year included Margaret Thatcher, JK Rowling, Kate Moss and Charlotte Church.

## Death and tributes

Dadds died after a long illness on 26 November 2011 in Rainham, London. Speaking after her death, Howard Collins, chief executive of London Underground, said: "Hannah Dadds changed the working life of women on the Tube and the way in which many people viewed Tube drivers" and that "She was an esteemed member of our workforce."
A plaque was unveiled in her honour at Upton Park station on 31 May 2019.
# Stagville

Stagville Plantation is located in Durham County, North Carolina. With buildings constructed from the late 18th century to the mid-19th century, Stagville was part of one of the largest plantation complexes in the American South. The entire complex was owned by the Bennehan, Mantack and Cameron families; it comprised roughly 30,000 acres (120 km$^2$) and was home to almost 900 enslaved African Americans in 1860.
The remains of Historic Stagville consist of 71 acres (290,000 m$^2$), in three tracts, and provides a unique look at North Carolina's history and general infrastructure in the antebellum South. Among structures on the Stagville site are several historic houses and barns, including the original Bennehan House and some of the original slave quarters, which were in an area known as Horton Grove.
The Bennehan House, built 1787 with a large addition in 1799, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973; Horton Grove, an area of two-story slave residences built in 1850, was listed in 1978. The slave residences are well preserved and are the only two-story slave quarters remaining in North Carolina. Significant archaeological finds around the quarters have given archaeologists and historians a glimpse into the lives of the many enslaved people who lived and worked at Stagville and throughout the Bennehan-Cameron holdings.
In 1976, Liggett and Meyers Tobacco Company, which had owned and worked the land for decades, donated some of the acreage to the state of North Carolina, which now operates the property as Historic Stagville State Historic Site, a historic house museum, which belongs to the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.

# The Inner and Outer World of Shah Rukh Khan

The Inner and Outer World of Shahrukh Khan is the release title for a pair of documentaries pertaining to Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan, both directed by the London-based writer and producer/director Nasreen Munni Kabir, an authority on Hindi cinema. The first film, The Inner World of Shahrukh Khan, for BBC Channel 4, examines the actor's family history and daily life, while the second, The Outer World of Shahrukh Khan, produced by Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment, follows him on his 2004 Temptations concert tour in Europe and the United States. In contrasting Khan's two worlds, Kabir analyzes the effect that stardom has on "a man who evidently has taken Indian cinema to the next level. Inner World on and off set, from Mumbai to Delhi, Shah Rukh Khan shares with us his deeply personal memories, thoughts and experiences between a hectic schedule. A candid, sensitive and gentle portrait of a thoughtful man. Outer World A fascinating journey through the UK and the USA in the company of Shah Rukh Khan, as he fills the largest stadiums and arenas in 14 major cities.

# Sir William Burroughs (1803 ship)

Sir William Burroughs was a merchant vessel launched in 1803 at Calcutta. A French privateer captured her in 1807 and the British recaptured her in 1810. She made one voyage for the British East India Company (EIC) in 1812. She is last listed in 1820.

## Career

Sir William Burroughs's early career is currently obscure. One report in 1809, using earlier information, gave the name of her captain as James Haig, and her owner as Sheik Golam Hussain/
Haig was still captain when the privateer captain Robert Surcouf, in Revenant, captured the 10-gun Sir William Burroughs on 18 December 1807.
The British attacked Île de France and captured it on 3 December 1810. One of the vessels they recaptured was William Burroughs of "1000 tons" (bm). She later appeared on a list of transports that supported the invasion and its aftermath.
After the invasion, the British chartered some nine vessels, Sir William Burroughs among them, as cartels to carry back to France the French troops that they had captured.
Sir William Burroughs, Shaik Gulhum Homain, owner, appeared on a list of vessels registered at Calcutta in January 1811.
On 9 January 1812 Sir William Burroughs was again at Mauritius. There she embarked the headquarters and six companies of the 86th Regiment of Foot. (The remaining four companies followed on Helen.) On 21 February Sir William Burroughs delivered her troops to Madras.
William Burroughs paid £3858 11s 3d on 15 July 1812 for outfitting for a return voyage to India.
Captain Thomas Watken Court sailed from Bengal on 18 September 1812, bound for England. Sir William Burroughs was at Mauritius on 21 November. She then reached the Cape on 17 January and Saint Helena on 2 February 1813. She arrived at The Downs on 14 May. She entered Lloyd's Register in 1813 with Court, master and owner, and trade London–India.
She paid £2473 7s 4d on 31 December 1813 for outfitting for a return voyage. She had also undergone repairs.

## Fate

Sir William Burroughs is last listed in Lloyd's List in 1819, and in the Register of Shipping in 1820. Both show Court as master and owner, and her trade as London–India.
# South China Church

South China Church is an Evangelical denomination of China. In 1990 or 1991, it formed as an offshoot of Peter Xu's "All Ranges Church" which is also known as the Born Again Movement. Its former head Gong Shengliang was sentenced to a death penalty, but this sentence has since been commuted to life imprisonment. The South China Church is a banned church deemed a cult by authorities. The main criticism outside of that is that they are fundamentalist and charismatic. The official hostility to the church has garnered it support among several groups concerned with religious persecution. It is an "underground church" so membership figures are uncertain, but most estimates state it has tens of thousands of members.

## Imprisoned Members

Xu Fuming: was sentenced to life in prison in 2002.
Sun Minghua: born on June 13, 1965, in Hubei province. Influenced by her Christian mother, she became a disciple of Christ in 1984; and in 1986, she devoted herself to preaching the gospel.
Sun was arrested in September 2001, on suspicion of organizing and utilizing a cult organization to undermine law enforcement. At the time she was a council member in charge of finances for the SCC. The trial for the charges related to organizing a cult was held December 2001, when Sun was sentenced to life in prison. At a later High Court hearing, this sentence was reduced to 12 years.
# Ranking theory

Ranking theory is a theory in formal epistemology that represents the agent's epistemic state by a ranking function. It could represent the qualitative and quantitative nature of belief.

## History

The theory was devised by the German philosopher, Wolfgang Spohn, and is discussed in his book, The Laws of Belief. Spohn explains how the ranking theory was born:
   'Around 1980 Peter Gärdenfors’ papers on conditionals and belief change (1978, 1981) provided the best available account of conditional belief (besides Ellis 1979, which I was unaware of at that time), and this account appeared to offer more intelligible grounds for a theory of conditionals and causation than the similarity spheres used by David Lewis as a basis for those topics. However, I thought that Gärdenfors' account represented conditional beliefs and the dynamics of belief only in an incomplete way, too incomplete for the purposes of a theory of causation. For months I struggled to find a way of completing the account. Somehow the solution came to my mind in April 1982, and what was later called ranking theory was born.'

## Negative ranking function

A negative ranking function assigns an ordinal number to each member of the set of possibilities, the numbers show how much each world is far from the actual world from the agent's point of view. Let A be a complete algebra over W. Then κ is an A-measurable completely minimitive natural negative ranking function if and only if κ is a function from W into N+ = N or {∞} such that κ(∅) = ∞ κ(A) = min {κ(w) | w ∈A} for each nonempty A ∈A; κ(A) is called the negative rank of A.
One interpretation of k is that k is the degree of doubt.

## Two-sided ranking function

Let A be an algebra of propositions. Then τ is a two-sided ranking function for A if and only if there is a negative ranking function κ for A such that t(A) = κ(A) − κ(~A), for all A ∈A. t(A) is called the two-sided rank of A. Two-sided rank could be interpreted as the degree of belief. It could be positive or negative.

## Qualitative doxastic attitudes

The relationship between quantitative and qualitative doxastic attitudes in Ranking Theory works based on the neutrality threshold and it does not lead to the lottery paradox as it happens in Bayesian Epistemology. Let z be the neutrality threshold, then a proposition A is believed if and only if t(A)=>z; the proposition is suspended if and only if t(A)<z and t(A)<-z; and is disbelieved if and only if t(A)<=-z.
# Stafford's Bay View Inn

The Stafford’s Bay View Inn is located in Bay View, Michigan, on Little Traverse Bay. The inn is a historical building that has been around for over 120 years as part of the Bay View Association of the Methodist Church established in 1876. It is located on Woodland Avenue directly off U.S. Highway 31 with a Petoskey address.

## History

In 1886, John Wesly Howard built the Woodland Avenue House in the rapidly growing Methodist summer community of Bay View. The House was then renamed The Howard House in 1888 after Wesly Howard and served as a summer hotel. During the late 19th century, weekly rates averaged $4.50 for room and board. As the years went by, the property expanded and a various number of proprietors came and went. As the Inn assumed a new owner, it would be renamed accordingly such as The Roselawn, after then late owner, Hiram O. Rose.
The Inn was renamed for the final time in 1935 with today’s title, The Bay View Inn.
In the summer of 1957, Stafford C. Smith first visited the Inn with his aunt for the Inn’s well-known Sunday brunch. He returned each summer through 1960 and worked an assortment of positions under the Inn’s owner, Dr. Roy Heath. During the summer of 1960, Stafford met his future wife, Janice Johnson, who had been hired as a hostess in the dining room.
Stafford, during the following winter of 1960, began to work at the Perry Hotel in Petoskey, Michigan as the new assistant manager. Stafford and Janice were planning a June 17, 1961 wedding, but the Perry Hotel was sold only four months after Stafford had begun his new position, and Stafford lost his job.
Being out of a job with no marriage location, Stafford and Janice devised a plan and soon bought the Bay View Inn, which had recently been put up for sale by Dr. Heath. It is now known as Stafford’s Bay View Inn after the current owner Stafford C. Smith.

# Wooden Ships and Iron Men (1987 video game)

Wooden Ships and Iron Men is a computer wargame published by Avalon Hill in 1987 for the Commodore 64.

## Gameplay

This game is based on the naval board wargame, Wooden Ships and Iron Men. In the combat phase, the outcome of a battle is revealed when the winner is declared.

## Reception

In 1988, Dragon gave the game 2 out of 5 stars. Computer Gaming World stated that "many of the good qualities of the boardgame have been nicely translated", but criticized the computer opponent that was both weak and unable to fight in scenarios with land. It concluded with the hope that the game would presage the conversion of other large, classic boardgames to the computer. In 1990, the magazine gave the game two-plus stars out of five, and in 1993 gave it one-plus stars, calling it "A board game classic and a computer game disaster ... poor graphics and play value".

# Sir William Burrell, 2nd Baronet

Sir William Burrell FRS FSA (10 October 1732 – 20 January 1796) was an English antiquarian.

## Biography

He was the third son of Peter Burrell of Beckenham, Kent, and was born in Leadenhall Street on 10 October 1732. He was educated at St. John's College, Cambridge, whence he graduated as LL.B in 1755, and LL.D in 1760, and in the latter year (3 November) was admitted as an advocate at Doctors' Commons. He practised chiefly in the admiralty court, and there were in the possession of his grandson, Sir Walter Burrell, two volumes of his own manuscript reports of cases decided in that court between the years 1766 and 1774. They were edited by Mr. R. G. Marsden in 1885.
Burrell was made chancellor of Worcester in 1764, and held the same office in the diocese of Rochester, continuing in both posts till his death. He was elected M.P. for Haslemere in 1768, and became a commissioner of excise in 1774, being re-elected for Haslemere in that year. He was also FRS and FSA, and a director of the South Sea Company. By his marriage in 1773 with his cousin Sophia Raymond, a noted poet and dramatist and daughter of Sir Charles Raymond, he acquired considerable wealth. His father-in-law was created a baronet in 1773 with reversion of the title to Burrell and his heirs, which allowed him to succeed Raymond as 2nd baronet in 1789.
From an early period in life he was interested in antiquarian pursuits and ultimately concentrated his attention upon the history of the county of Sussex. Nearly every parish of Sussex was personally visited by him and its records inspected and partly copied. Drawings were made for him of churches, houses and sepulchral monuments, and he spared no labour in tracing the descent of the county families. He did not print any portion of his work, but bequeathed the entire collection to the British Museum, where it is now deposited among the Add. MSS. His interest in local history was not confined to England however, as he traveled Scotland extensively in 1758. Tourism had scarcely touched Scotland before the middle of the 18th century, making Burrell's travel journals an important early source of local history and Scotland's social and economic conditions.
Burrell was seized with paralysis in August 1787, and, though he partially recovered, found it necessary to resign his public appointments. He retired to Deepdene in Surrey with his wife Sophia, and there died on 20 January 1796. He was buried at St George's Church, West Grinstead, Sussex, where a simple monument to his memory by Flaxman has been placed in the church. A secondary monument (also by Flaxman) was erected at West Grinstead.
Lady Burrell married secondly the clergyman William Clay. She died on the Isle of Wight 20 June 1802.
