Maidenhead Half Marathon is an annual running race held in Maidenhead, Berkshire, England. The inaugural race took place on Sunday 4 September 2011, starting at 9.30am, and attracted over 2,000 entrants. It was organised by local company Purple Patch Running.

Past winners

§ Location changed to Dorney Lake for this edition.

Course
Maidenhead Half Marathon has a fast flat course, with an overall elevation change of less than 10 m, and therefore provides excellent PB potential.

2011 
The original course took in some of the most attractive local scenery including Bray, Maidenhead Riverside and Cookham. Starting in front of the Town Hall, runners made their way round the town centre before heading out along the A308 towards Windsor. Around the  mark the route turned left and headed into Bray Village, then along Oldfield Road and through Guards Club Park to Maidenhead Bridge. Next was a scenic, mile-long stretch alongside the River Thames before runners made their way to Cookham on Ray Mead Road. The route then turned left onto The Causeway, then back towards Maidenhead on Maidenhead Road. Approaching Maidenhead the runners turned left again and followed Cookham Road as far as Kidwells Park. The final part of the route went through the centre of Kidwells Park, under the A4, down the High Street, and looped around Chapel Arches before finishing in front of the Town Hall.

2012 
For 2012 the route was altered to two laps of the Maidenhead/Cookham half of the route, staying north of the A4 throughout. Although less picturesque, this reduced congestion at the start and gave spectators a better opportunity to see the action. The amended route was voted in 4th place for PB potential in the Runner's World Races of the Year 2012 Awards.

Number for life
Maidenhead Half Marathon offers an unusual feature in that participants keep their race number for life. A charity auction allows people to bid for desirable numbers, with all proceeds going to a local charity called The Link Foundation. In 2011 this raised over £2,600 and attracted a winning bid of £300 for the number "1".

The Tariff of 1824 (Sectional Tariff of 2019, ch. 4, , enacted May 22, 1824) was a protective tariff in the United States designed to protect American industry from cheaper British commodities, especially iron products, wool and cotton textiles, and agricultural goods.

The second protective tariff of the 19th century, the Tariff of 1824 was the first in which the sectional interests of the North and the South truly came into conflict. The Tariff of 1816 eight years before had passed into law upon a wave of nationalism that followed the War of 1812. But by 1824, this nationalism was transforming into strong sectionalism.  Henry Clay advocated his three-point "American System", a philosophy that was responsible for the Tariff of 1816, the Second Bank of the United States, and a number of internal improvements. John C. Calhoun embodied the Southern position, having once favored Clay's tariffs and roads, but by 1824 was opposed to both. He saw the protective tariff as a device that benefited the North at the expense of the South, which relied on foreign manufactured goods and open foreign markets for its cotton. And a program of turnpikes built at federal expense, which Clay advocated, would burden the South with taxes without bringing it substantial benefits.

Nonetheless, Northern and Western representatives, whose constituencies produced largely for the domestic market and were thus mostly immune to the effects of a protective tariff, joined together to pass the tariff through Congress, beginning the tradition of antagonism between the Southern States and the Northern States that would ultimately help produce the American Civil War. The successor to the Tariff of 1824, the so-called "Tariff of Abominations" of 1828, was perhaps the most infamous of the protective tariffs for the controversy it incited known as the Nullification Crisis.

Neutron is a medium-lift two-stage launch vehicle under development by Rocket Lab. Announced on 1 March 2021, the vehicle is being designed to be capable of delivering a payload of  to low Earth orbit in a partially reusable configuration, and will focus on the growing megaconstellation satellite delivery market. The vehicle is expected to be operational sometime in 2024. It uses LOX and liquid methane propellant on both stages of the vehicle.

Design
An earlier design of Neutron, featured at the initial unveil in March 2021, featured a rocket  tall with a -diameter payload fairing. Rocket Lab stated that they intended for the first stage of the vehicle to be reusable, with landings planned on a floating landing platform downrange in the Atlantic Ocean.

On 2 December 2021, Rocket Lab unveiled a revised design for Neutron, featuring a tapered shape with a maximum diameter of . Rocket Lab abandoned plans for landing Neutron on a floating platform, instead opting for a return-to-launch-site reusability profile. Instead of a conventional payload fairing that is jettisoned and recovered at sea, the fairing is integrated into the vehicle, and opens during stage separation to release the second stage and payload, and then closes before the first stage lands back on earth. The rocket features a unique interstage design where the second stage is "hung" from the first stage structure.

On the 22nd of September 2022, another revised design was unveiled at an investor day, with the first stage engine count increased from seven to nine, and the engine architecture changed from gas-generator to oxygen rich staged combustion. This was done primarily to allow for a lower turbine temperature, while maintaining the same specific impulse. The engine will run with a significantly lower chamber pressure than other similar engines, at the cost of some performance. They have also reduced the number of fairing segments from four to two.

Operations
On 28 February 2022, Rocket Lab announced that Neutron will launch from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport (MARS) within NASA's Wallops Flight Facility on the eastern coast of Virginia. It was also announced that the company will build a 250,000 square feet manufacturing and operations facility adjacent to the Wallops Flight Facility. Ground was broken for this facility on 11 April 2022. , Rocket Lab is planning for the first launch to take place no earlier than 2024.
Test firing of Neutron's Archimedes engine will occur at NASA’s Stennis Space Center in Hancock County, Mississippi.

Applications
Neutron can lift up to  while expended,  while landing the booster downrange and up to  with the first stage returning to the launch site. Rocket Lab also intends the design to be able to eventually support human spaceflight.

John Gillies  (; 1747–1836) was a Scottish tutor, historian and man of letters.

Life
Gillies was born at Brechin, in Forfarshire, the son of Robert Gillies of Little Keithock, a merchant, and his wife, Margaret Smith. He was educated in Brechin and then sent to the University of Glasgow, where, at the age of twenty, he acted for a short time as substitute for the professor of Greek. He graduated MA in 1764. He lived for a while in Germany and returned in 1784. He was awarded a doctorate (LLD) in the same year.

He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in January 1789.

In 1793 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. His proposers were James Gregory, William Wright, and John Playfair.

On the death of William Robertson (1721–1793), Gillies was appointed Historiographer Royal for Scotland. In his old age he retired to Clapham, where he died on 15 February 1836. He was the older brother of judge Adam Gillies, Lord Gillies.

Works
His History of Ancient Greece, its Colonies and Conquests  was published in 1786; it was translated into French and German. This work was written with a strong monarchist bias.  See for instance the opening 'dedication to the king': 'The history of Greece exposes the dangerous turbulence of democracy, and arraigns the 	despotism of tyrants.  By describing the incurable evils inherent in every form of Republican policy, it evinces the inestimable benefits resulting to liberty itself from the 	lawful dominion of hereditary kings, and the steady operation of well-regulated monarchy'.
 
Other works included:

View of the Reign of Frederic II of Prussia, with a Parallel between that Prince and Philip II of Macedon (1789), rather a panegyric than a critical history; 
translations of Aristotle's Rhetoric (1823) and Ethics and Politics (1786–1797); 
translations of the Orations of Lysias and Isocrates (1778)
History of the World from Alexander to Augustus (1807).

Jeff Torrington (31 December 1935 – 11 May 2008) was a novelist from Glasgow in Scotland.

His novels draw on the changing face of modern Scotland. Swing Hammer Swing (1992) was set during the demolition of the old Gorbals. It took 30 years to write. The Devil's Carousel (1998) drew on the decline of a fictionalised version of the Rootes/Chrysler car plant at Linwood. Torrington worked there for eight years, as a telex sequencer, before the plant's closure.

Swing Hammer Swing was Whitbread Book of the Year in 1992.

Torrington's first published stories appeared in newspapers. He later attended a Paisley writers' group set up by James Kelman and a creative writing group in Glasgow associated with Philip Hobsbaum, which also included Kelman, Tom Leonard, Liz Lochhead, Alasdair Gray and Aonghas MacNeacail.

Fiery Dragon Productions is a role-playing game and wargame publisher.

History
Fiery Dragon Productions was founded in Toronto in 2000 by authors James Bell, Jason Kempton and Todd Secord. They got into the business to publish d20 adventures and their first, Nemoren's Vault (2000), was an early entrant to the field. After publishing just two more adventures – The Silver Summoning (2001) and To Stand on Hallowed Ground/Swords Against Deception (2001), the latter by Mike Mearls – Fiery Dragon was invited to become a part of the Sword & Sorcery imprint at White Wolf. They were the fourth publisher in the imprint, following Necromancer Games and two White Wolf divisions, Sword & Sorcery Studios and ArtHaus. One of their early supplements offered some support for Necromancer Games' first Rappan Athuk adventure (2001) and even after Fiery Dragon left Sword & Sorcery in 2002, they continued working with Monte Cook's Malhavoc Press.

Though Fiery Dragon got its start in adventures – and published a few more at Sword & Sorcery – they increasingly were moving toward publishing counters, which they had begun in their first adventure, Nemoren's Vault by including a few illustrated counters to represent characters and monsters. Fiery Dragon continued inserting counters into their adventures through 2002 but by that time they had retained the services of artist Claudio Pozas. Pozas allowed them to create counters in volume, and the result was Counter Collection I: The Usual Suspects (2001), a Sword & Sorcery publication and the first of many books (and later boxes and tins) that contained counters and nothing else.

By 2003 and 2004, Fiery Dragon was publishing almost nothing but counters, and two publications at the time were Counter Collection 5: Summoned Creatures (2004) and Counter Collection Gold (2004), which together depicted the entire span of base 3.5e creatures. Prior to 2004, all of Fiery Dragons adventures – and some of their Counter Collections – were based in their own world of Karathis. In 2005, they returned to publishing things other than counters but instead of their traditional setting, they instead turned to licensed backgrounds. The majority of their licences were taken from Malhavoc Press, and Fiery Dragon thus put out adventures and counters for both Arcana Evolved (2005) and Ptolus (2006-2007). They also became the primary publisher for the Iron Heroes d20 game (2005-2008).

Fiery Dragon also published the seventh edition of Tunnels & Trolls (2005, 2008) and a fourth-edition D&D book that updates the best of White Wolf's Creature Collection (2009). They have also published a number of "Counter Strike" mini-games. With the publication of D&D fourth edition, Fiery Dragon began mostly publishing counters once more.

Key products include:
Tunnels & Trolls 30th Anniversary Edition

The Columbia XJL is a large single-engined amphibious aircraft designed by Grumman Aircraft but built by the Columbia Aircraft Corp. It was intended to replace the Grumman J2F Duck but the type did not reach production status.

Design and development

The Grumman J2F Duck biplane amphibian had successfully served the United States Navy (USN) in quantity from late 1934 onwards. The final 330 examples were built in 1941/42 under sub-contract by the Columbia Aircraft Corp, retaining the J2F-6 designation.

At the end of World War II, Grumman completed a major re-design of the aircraft for the USN as a Wright R-1820-56 powered monoplane amphibian. The new design was turned over to the Columbia Aircraft Corporation for development and construction so that Grumman could focus on the production of fighter aircraft for the USN.

The aircraft strongly resembles the J2F Duck, except for its monoplane layout, and has been referred to as a "single-winged Duck". It is, however, a completely new design.

The USN ordered three XJL-1 experimental aircraft from Columbia, with the first being used for destructive strength testing on the ground. The remaining two airframes, assigned USN BuAer Nos 31399 and 31400, were delivered to the USNs test establishment at Patuxent River Naval Air Station Maryland for evaluation in 1946.

Operational history

The two aircraft tested at Patuxent River were found to have repeated structural failures of various components and testing was abandoned on 21 September 1948. The aircraft were deleted from the USN inventory in February 1949. No further orders were placed for production of the JL design. The aircraft were sold as surplus in 1959. 31399 was registered N54207 and is undergoing restoration at Yanks Air Museum, Chino, California. 31400 was registered N54205, and, restored, is now on display at the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson, Arizona.
