François Quesnel (c. 1543–1619) was a French painter of Scottish extraction.

Biography
The son of the French painter Pierre Quesnel and his Scottish wife Madeleine Digby, born in Edinburgh while his father worked for Mary of Guise, Quesnel found patronage at the French court of Catherine de Medici and her son, Henri III (illustration). He married Charlotte Richandeau, with whom he had four children. A widower, he remarried in  1584  Marguerite Le Masson, who gave him ten more children, among whom were Nicolas (died 1632) and Augustin, painters, and Jacques, bookseller.

In le Paris he worked as a decorator and a designer of cartoons for tapestry, but it is as a portrait painter, both in oils and in delicately tinted pencil or red and black chalk, that he is chiefly remembered. Some portraits were engraved by Thomas de Leu and Michel Lasne, and in 1609 he drew a map of Paris for engraving by Pierre Vallet.  He died in le Paris.

Tapestry designs
In 1585 François provided a cartoon for a tapestry of Christ preaching on the steps of the Temple for the Church of Saint Madeleine in Paris. In August 1586, François contracted to provide designs for tapestries of the Life of the Virgin'' for Renée of Guise Lorraine, Abbess of the Convent of Saint-Pierre-les-Dames at Reims and sister of his father's employer in Scotland, Mary of Guise (who was buried in the Convent). The eight tapestries and his cartoons were to be 1.5 ells in height, and 10.25 ells in length. Each was to include the heraldry of the Abbess in the centre. The cost of this design work was 5 ecu sols per Paris ell. These tapestries following his designs were woven in Paris.

Bailey Washington Jr. (December 12, 1753June 14, 1814) was an American planter and legislator who served two terms as a delegate from  Stafford County in the Virginia House of Delegates and many years as local justice of the peace.

Early and family life
Bailey Washington Jr. was the third son born to Bailey Washington Sr. and his wife, the former Catherine Storke. His father also served in the Virginia House of Delegates, as well as operated plantations using enslaved labor. His elder brothers Henry Washington (1749-1825), also served in the House of Delegates representing Prince William County but financial troubles prompted moves to Shelbyville, Kentucky and eventually what became Limestone County, Alabama) and William Washington (1752-1810; a war hero who also served in the Virginia General Assembly), although John Washington (b.1756 probably died as a child). His sisters Elizabeth Washington Storke (1758-circa 1798) and Mary Butler Washington Peyton (1760-1822) married local planters.

Career
Bailey Washington farmed using enslaved labor. In the 1810 federal census, he owned 45 enslaved people. Stafford County voters twice elected him to the Virginia House of Delegates, although one source believes that he not his father also served in 1780.

Death and legacy
Bailey Washington was survived by his wife Euphan Curle Wallace (1764-1845), the step daughter of Thomson Mason. Although he received Windsor Farms from his father in 1784, it was held by his youngest sister, Mary, who had married Dr. Valentine Peyton and lived at his "Tusculum" estate in Stafford County, not long after their father's death. In 1846, Jefferson Spindle (who became a Stafford magistrate like this man's father) purchased Windsor Forest from Charles Prosser Moncure, and operated a school there for several years before the American Civil War. The long-vanished Stafford County estate (now within Quantico Marine Corps reservation) is now memorialized as a real estate subdivision name.

Tit for Tat is an 1856 novel written anonymously by "A Lady of New Orleans".

Overview 

Tit for Tat is one of several examples of plantation literature that emerged in the Southern United States in response to the 1852 novel Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe, which had been criticised in the south for inaccurately depicting the practices of slavery and the relationship(s) between master and slave.

Tit for Tat, however, is an isolated example of the genre where, instead of defending slavery or attacking abolitionism like other works of the genre, it attempts to attack the enthusiasm for Uncle Tom's Cabin upon its initial release in the United Kingdom. Thus, Tit for Tat could be seen as attempting to promote anti-British sentiment in the United States rather than promoting slavery.

Plot 

The novel follows Totty, a young urchin living in poverty in Victorian-era London. Totty is stolen from his family whilst young, and forced to work as the apprentice of a sadistic chimney sweep. Totty's suffering is ignored by the philanthropists, who are so concerned with the welfare of black slaves in America that they fail to notice that they have simply replaced their own slavery with child labour.

Publication history 

Tit for Tat was first published in its entirety by Garret & Co. in 1856, but unlike other anti-Tom novels such as Aunt Phillis's Cabin or The Planter's Northern Bride, the novel has not been republished in the modern day.

Andries Gerhardus Visser (1 March 1878 – 10 June 1929) was a well-known early Afrikaans poet. He was popularly known as the "Singer of the Suikerbosrand".

Biography
Visser was born on the farm Zaaifontein in the Fraserburg district of Cape Colony. An intense drought drove his parents from their farm in Carnarvon and he was born in a tent in the farmyard, under the shadow of a pear tree. He attended school in Dal Josafat at the same time as two other notable writers, Totius and D. F. Malherbe.

He received teacher's training at Normal College in Cape Town, then studied medicine in Edinburgh, Scotland, from 1901 to 1906. He worked as a medical doctor in Carnarvon (1906–1909), Steytlerville (1909–1916) and Heidelberg (1916–1929). He became close friends with the poet Eugene Marais while in Heidelberg. He was a South African Freemason.
He married twice; in 1913 with Lettie Conradie, who died in 1920, and again in 1927 with Marie de Villiers. He died on 10 June 1929.

Literary career
Visser was already published at eighteen in Ons Kleintji.  His work is not regarded as part of the Eerste Taalbeweging, rather as the part of the poetry from the period until 1930.

He twice won the prestigious Hertzog Prize for literature, for both his first and second anthologies.

His verse is notably simple and musical, making use of traditional verse forms such as the rondeel, intertextual references and techniques such as the switching of idioms, epigrams and spellings.

Kinbrace railway station is a railway station serving the village of Kinbrace in the Highland council area in the north of Scotland. It is located on the Far North Line,  from Inverness, between Kildonan and Forsinard. The station is managed by ScotRail, who operate the services at the station.

History 

 had been linked to  by rail in 1870. The Sutherland and Caithness Railway was formed in 1871 to carry the railway onward to  and , by a route which took it through Strath Ullie. The line opened on 28 July 1874 and included a station at Kinbrace.

Facilities 
The station unusually has two waiting shelters, as well as a help point and bike racks. As there are no facilities to purchase tickets, passengers must buy one in advance, or from the guard on the train.

On , Transport Scotland introduced a new "Press & Ride" system at Kinbrace, following successful trials of the system at  over the previous four months. Previously, passengers wishing to board a train at Scotscalder had to flag the train by raising their arm (as is still done at other request stops around the country); this meant that the driver needed to reduce the train's speed before a request stop (to look out for any potential passengers on the platform and be able to stop if necessary), even if the platform was empty. The new system consists of an automatic kiosk (with a button for passengers to press) at the platform; this will alert the driver about any waiting passengers in advance and, if there is no requirement to stop, the train can maintain line speed through the request stops, thus improving reliability on the whole line.

Platform layout 

The single platform is long enough for a four-coach train.

Services 
In the December 2021 timetable, there are four trains north to  via  and three south to  from Wick, on weekdays and Saturdays. There is a fourth Wick to Inverness service, but this does not stop at Kinbrace. There is a single train each way on Sundays.

Luxembourg competed at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta, Canada from 13–28 February 1988.  It had been 52 years since the last time the nation had participated in the Winter Olympic Games, and Calgary was only their third appearance at a Winter Olympics in history.  The Luxembourgian delegation consisted of a single alpine skier, the Austrian-born Marc Girardelli.  His best performance was 9th in the downhill race, and Luxembourg did not win any medals at these Olympics.

Background
Luxembourg first joined Olympic competition at the 1900 Summer Olympics and first participated at the Winter Olympic Games at the 1928 Winter Olympics.  Their participation at Winter Olympics since has been sporadic, Luxembourg did not send a delegation to any Winter Olympics from 1948 to 1984, and thus it had been 52 years since Luxembourg's last appearance.  The 1988 Winter Olympics were held from 13–28 February 1988.  Marc Girardelli was the only athlete sent to Calgary by Luxembourg.  Armand Wagener was the flag bearer for the opening ceremony.

Competitors
The following is the list of number of competitors in the Games.

Alpine skiing

Marc Girardelli was 24 years old at the time of the Calgary Olympics, which were his Olympic debut. Considered a "dominant figure" in alpine skiing, the Austrian-born Girardelli had been forced to miss the 1980 and 1984 Winter Olympics over issues with his citizenship. Coming into the Calgary Olympics, he was recently released from the hospital following a "disastrous crash" three weeks before the Olympics. The downhill was held on 15 February, in this single-run race Girardelli posted a time of 2 minutes and 2.59 seconds, which put him in ninth place.  On 21 February, he failed to finish the only run of the Super-G.  The giant slalom, held on 25 February, was a two-run race.  In the first run, Girardelli posted a time of 1 minute and 7.79 seconds.  He went faster in the second run, completing the course in 1 minute and 4 seconds.  His total time of  	2 minutes and 11.79 seconds put him in 20th place for the competition.  Four years later, at the 1992 Winter Olympics he would win two silver medals for Luxembourg.
