Machault was a 32-gun ship of the French Navy, launched in 1757 at Bayonne, France.

She was built as a privateer and owned by Joseph Cadet, a general merchant and arms supplier in New France, and associate of the Intendant, Francois Bigot. She was hired by the French Navy in March 1759. Governor Vaudreuil had asked the French King to send supplies and re-enforcements. The French merchants acquiesced to this demand by sending five merchant ships to New France in 1760, escorted by Machault.

Her captain was François Chenard de la Giraudais. Machault took part in the Battle of Restigouche on 8 July 1760. She had 250–337 persons on board, of which 150 were sailors.  She was sunk in the action, with her wreck later being explored and a number of artefacts salvaged.

In 2006, Atholville resident and historian Allan Muzzerall contributed small pieces of wood salvaged from the ship in the 1970s during excavation for a local mill to the Six String Nation project. This material now forms the bridge of Voyageur, the guitar at the heart of the project.

John Baldwin (16 August 1923 – 28 November 2007) was a British trade union leader.

Born in West Ham, Baldwin grew up in Basildon, where he was educated at Laindon Road Secondary School.  He joined the Royal Navy in 1938, later moving to serve in the Royal Marines, seeing action in numerous events from the Dunkirk evacuation to the D-day landings.  He left the Marines in 1948, and soon became a steel erector, joining the Constructional Engineering Union (CEU).

Baldwin came to prominence in the CEU, becoming a shop steward, and then a convener.  In 1957, he began working full-time for the union as an organiser, and in 1969 he was elected as its assistant general secretary.  In 1971, the CEU became the Construction Section of the Amalgamated Union of Engineering Workers (AUEW), retaining considerable autonomy.  He became general secretary of the section in 1976.  He was initially seen as a left-winger, and despite his commitment to the Labour Party, he was also supported by the Communist Party of Great Britain.  However, in 1980 he became frustrated with striking laggers on the Isle of Grain, and broke the strike by personally driving a bus through the picket line.  He also worked on a scheme to move bargaining on pay and conditions from the site level to the national or regional level, believing that this would increase union authority, while also reducing the number of industrial disputes.

In 1984, following disputes in the AUEW, the Construction Section became a core part of the union, and Baldwin became its National Secretary (Construction), serving until his retirement in 1988.  In 1978, Baldwin was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire.

Daaera () is a 1953 Indian film written and directed by Kamal Amrohi, starring Meena Kumari and Nasir Khan. It was released at Bombay's Naaz cinema. Its story is loosely based on Kamal Amrohi and Meena Kumari's own love story.

Plot
One night a critically ill man arrives in town looking for a doctor. As the doctor is not there, he is directed to a nearby haveli for shelter. He rents an apartment there with his young wife Sheetal (Meena Kumari). Their age disparity is such that most people assume Sheetal to be his daughter. When the doctor comes to check on him, he also notices symptoms of the same disease in Sheetal and asks her to be careful. Sharan (Nasir Khan), the proprietor's son, lives in the apartment opposite and is entranced by the sight of Sheetal on the balcony. His inability to fulfil his desire leads him into a deep melancholia. When Sheetal's husband is called away on business, she befriends a young girl Gomti who has been punished for having fallen in love. Gomti is shocked to discover that the old man with her is not her father but her husband. Sheetal is a dutiful wife and keeps on caring for her husband even as her own condition deteriorates.

Sharan's mother is unable to see her son's mournful state anymore and attempts to arrange his marriage to Sheetal. When her efforts are unsuccessful, her son-in-law tries to hatch a plan to trick Sharan into marrying someone else. In the midst of this, Sheetal's husband is in a tragic railway accident and is believed to be dead. Sharan's brother-in law tries to convince his mother to accept Sharan's marriage to a widow. After much convincing she finally accepts. But in a final twist it is revealed that her husband has survived and has returned to her. In a remarkable final sequence Sheetal watches from her balcony as Sharan's marriage takes place and passes away in silence. This poetic film takes place in large portions through a beautiful elegiac soundtrack and its mournful silences.

Licania rigida, the oiticica, is a species of plant in the family Chrysobalanaceae. It is endemic to Brazil and Puerto Rico. The oiticica grows deep in floods of rivers and streams, forming long, narrow avenues to the edge of ravines or floodplains staining the dark-green color of its large and dense foliage.

Gallery

Description
Licania rigida is generally considered a tree, and can reach 15 m in height. Leaves alternate, measuring 12 cm long by 6 wide. Flowers 3 mm in diameter, yellow, arranged in spikes branches. Fruit drupaceous, fusiform or oval, from 2–7 cm. The rind of the fruit is green even when ripe but becomes dark yellow when dry.

The wood is white and fiber interlacing, very resistant to crushing. The leaves, extremely rigid and coriaceous, lend themselves to polishing artifacts of horn. Its value, however, in the past, derived from its seeds, rich in oil (60%) suitable for paint and varnish. On average, a foot of Oiticica produces 75 kg of nuts per season, but exceptionally, examples were recorded with production of up to 1,500 kilograms.

Cultivation
The oiticica nuts are used to make oiticica oil (Brazil). Oiticica oil finds limited use as a substitute for tung oil or linseed oil when the price of either of these products prohibit their use. Oiticica oil is much darker in color and is susceptible to transforming into a pasty, semi-solid state at room temperature. This requires heating prior to use.

The Dry Port of Madrid, also known as the Dry Port of Coslada, is a logistics platform for the distribution of goods located in the Spanish municipality of Coslada, near Madrid.

Description 
The draft project for the dry port traces back to 1995. The start of operations took place in 2001, through the link to the ports of Algeciras, Valencia, Bilbao and Barcelona. The port of Valencia early consolidated as the main synergy hoarder vis-à-vis the activity of the Dry Port of Coslada, amounting for the 92% of the freight volume by 2016. After the purchase of the stocks of Noatum by the Chinese company COSCO Shipping Ports, the management of the terminal, transferred to Conte Rail, became controlled by Cosco. It has its own customs service.

Trinity Episcopal Church is a historic Episcopal church located in Parkersburg, Wood County, West Virginia. Records indicate that Episcopal services were conducted as early as 1815 by itinerant clergymen, but there was not a building so services were conducted in the county court.  In 1843, the Rt. Rev. Wm. Meade, Bishop of Virginia, sent the Rev. Tho. Smith to be the vicar of a small congregation.  The church property was given by John Snodgrass, a member of congress from this district.  The first church's building began in 1846, and Rev. Smith died at age 48, before its completion.  He was buried, by his request, under the front steps.  He felt he was "a poor sinner and wanted to be trampled under the feet of all who entered."  The first church was completed in 1850, with the rectory built in 1863, and occupied until 1919, when it was turned into office buildings and Sunday school rooms.  The old church was torn down in 1878, and the present building completed and consecrated in 1879.  The church's foundation stones come from Quincy Hill quarry.  In 1913, the church was flooded and pews were taken up and stored higher, but the organ, furnaces and floor was destroyed.  Another flood occurred in 1937, however, this one was not as severe, yet the pews were replaced.

Trinity Hall was built in 1881, financed by children via plays and bake sales, with the cost totaling $750.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

Trinity Episcopal Church is locally renowned for the annual used book sale held each fall by its ECW (Episcopal Church Women). They are also well known for their Monday feeding ministry where they feed between 120 and 170 meals each Monday between 11:00 AM and noon.

Khön clan of Sakya () is a Tibetan clan and nobility originally based in Sa'gya. The clan traces its history to the time of Bod Chen Po. The Sakya Trizin of Sakya school was exclusively chosen from members of this clan. The current head of Khön clan is Gyana Vajra Rinpoche.

Since the reign of Tsenpo Trisong Detsen, Khön clansmen had actively participated in the political and religious affairs of the Tibetan empire. The founder of Sakya school Khön Könchok Gyalpo was a prominent member of this clan and the one who settled the clan in Sa'gya. Khöns had ruled the region of Sa'gya for centuries. Clansmen of Khön were appointed imperial preceptors of Yuan dynasty. Yuan emperors entrusted Tibet's power to this clan. During Yuan's rule, Khön clan was the de facto ruling house of Tibet. The top administrative official of Yuan's Tibet---Benchin(本欽) were either from Khön clan or closely related to it. In addition, the  "Imperial preceptor" was the head of the Bureau of Buddhist and Tibetan Affairs. Out of political interests, many marriages were arranged between the Khön clan and Borjigin. Three members of Khön clan were given the title "Prince Bailan"(白蘭王).
