The Townsville Fire are an Australian professional female basketball team competing in the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL). They are the only female professional sporting team of any discipline in the northern half of Australia. The team was established in 2001 by Townsville Basketball Inc. In 2014, James Cook University became the team's principal partner and naming rights sponsor.

Following the 2010/11 season, the Fire were seemingly doomed, folding under the weight of financial pressures before an 11th hour resurrection. Prior to the 2011/12 season, the team became a not-for-profit, community owned entity. The Fire reached four straight WNBL Grand Finals between 2012/13 and 2015/16, winning back-to-back championships in 2015 and 2016. Their victory in March 2015 was the city's maiden national premiership. The Fire returned to the WNBL Grand Final in 2017/18 and won their third title in four years. The team won their fourth championship in 2023.

Lauren Drain (born December 31, 1985) is a former member of the Westboro Baptist Church who wrote the 2013 book Banished, which chronicles her experiences and eventual banishment from the church.

Early life
Drain was born in Tampa, Florida and lived in nearby Bradenton until age five, when she moved to Olathe, Kansas, with her father, Steve, who enrolled in a graduate program at the University of Kansas.<ref>Banished, first page in chapter 1 and another page: "Mom and Dad found us a house to rent in Bradenton"</ref>

Steve Drain first came into contact with Westboro while working on a documentary critical of the church. He eventually became a fervent convert, and his entire family followed him into the church. Lauren Drain was a member from 2001 until 2007, when she was excommunicated for questioning church doctrine and unauthorized contact with a Connecticut man seeking to learn more about the church. Following her excommunication, she briefly lived on her own in Topeka, but was haunted by reminders of her banishment from the church and her family, eventually deciding to move to Connecticut. Her parents, two sisters, and brother remained members of the church and cut all ties with her. However, sometime in 2020, her parents and two younger siblings were also excommunicated for unknown reasons. A YouTube video released in 2023 showed that they have re-established their relationship.

Drain graduated from Topeka West High School in Topeka, Kansas and earned a Wiseman Scholarship to Washburn University.

Career
Drain graduated from Washburn University in 2007 with a Bachelor of Science degree in nursing. She worked as a registered nurse for nine years before becoming a full-time personal trainer and fitness model.

Drain participated in the NOH8 Campaign in 2013.

Drain wrote the book titled Banished: Surviving My Years in the Westboro Baptist Church'', co-authored by Lisa Pulitzer which describes her experiences in the Westboro Baptist Church and her ultimate expulsion from the church. It has been on the New York Best Sellers list in the eBook category as of March 30, 2013.

Drain is a fitness model, using her social media account such as Instagram and Facebook to showcase her fitness routines, strength and motivational content.

Personal life
Drain has been married to David Kagan since August 2013. As of 2013 she lives in Connecticut. She identifies as a Christian. In 2019, Drain and her husband announced that they were expecting a baby, and Drain gave birth to a child later that year.

The Beauharnois Canal is located in southwestern Quebec, Canada. The canal is part of the Saint Lawrence Seaway.

Located in Beauharnois-Salaberry Regional County Municipality within the cities of Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Beauharnois, Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague, and Saint-Stanislas-de-Kostka, the canal connects Lake Saint-Francis to the west (upstream) with Lake Saint-Louis to the northeast (downstream), bypassing a series of rapids on the Saint Lawrence River.

History

The original Beauharnois Canal opened in 1843, and measured  in length and was built on the south side of the St. Lawrence River. It replaced the Coteau-du-Lac canal. 

The canal became obsolete and was superseded by the Soulanges Canal in 1899 which ran on the north side of the St. Lawrence River.

The present Beauharnois Canal was built between 1929-1932 on the south side of the St. Lawrence River, measuring  or   in length, with a minimum depth of  and width of .  This canal was built as part of a hydroelectric development at Beauharnois which saw a dam and power house built to take advantage of the  drop between Lake St. Francis and Lake St. Louis.  Some of the electricity is used to power a large aluminum smelter  in Beauharnois.

In the 1950s, the Beauharnois Canal had 2 locks added as part of the Saint Lawrence Seaway project, which were inaugurated in 1959. This in turn superseded the Soulanges Canal. The locks enable ships up to 27,000 tons to travel between the two lakes.

Bridges

Bridges over the canal in downstream order are:
  - carrying Routes 132 and 201, and the railway tracks of CSX Transportation, connecting Salaberry-de-Valleyfield with Saint-Stanislas-de-Kostka
 St. Louis Bridge - connecting Salaberry-de-Valleyfield with Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague
  - carrying Autoroute 30
 Pied-du-Canal or CSX Bridge - railroad bridge
 Boulevard Edgar Hébert Bridge - carrying Route 132 between Melocheville and Beauharnois (this crossing consists of a suspension bridge over the discharge of the Beauharnois Power Station and a tunnel under the locks of Beauharnois Canal)

AM Herculis is a binary variable star located in the constellation Hercules. This star, along with the star AN Ursae Majoris, is the prototype for a category of cataclysmic variable stars called polars, or AM Her type stars.

History
AM Herculis was first cataloged in 1923 by Max Wolf and was listed at the time as Veränderlicher 28.1923, which is now AN 28.1923 in the General Catalogue of Variable Stars. It was observed to be an irregular variable star ranging from 12 to 14 in apparent magnitude. In 1976, the astronomer S. Tapia discovered that light from the star is both linearly and circularly polarized, showing that there was a strong magnetic field surrounding the system and revealing that the system was more complex than previously thought.

System
The AM Herculis binary system contains a white dwarf and a red dwarf.  The white dwarf is accreting material directly from the red dwarf without an accretion disk.  The white dwarf primary is highly magnetic and the infalling material is channelled towards the magnetic poles.  The accretion rate is unstable, at times decreasing dramatically and reducing the brightness of the whole system.  There are also periodic variations thought to be caused by the appearance and eclipse of the accreting regions during rotation of the white dwarf.

Thomas Henry Brand, 4th Viscount Hampden CMG (30 March 1900 – 17 October 1965) was a British and English peer, both Baron Dacre (dating from 1307) and Viscount Hampden.

The son of Thomas Brand, 3rd Viscount Hampden GCVO, KCB, CMG, and of Lady Katharine Mary Montagu-Douglas-Scott, a daughter of the 6th Duke of Buccleuch, he was educated at Eton, holding the office of Page of Honour to King George V between 1913 and 1916. After Eton, he joined the British Army and was commissioned as a Lieutenant into the Rifle Brigade.

On 26 July 1923, he married Leila, daughter of Lieutenant-Colonel Frank Seely, of Ramsdale Park, Nottinghamshire and son of Sir Charles Seely, 1st Baronet. They had four daughters, Sarah Elizma (1924–1937), Gian Katherine (1927–1929), Rachel Leila (1929–2012), and Tessa Mary ( 1934-2020).

In 1931 he became Managing Director of Lazard Brothers & Co. During the Second World War he served as Chief Executive Officer on the British side of the Combined Production and Resources Board, from 1942 to 1944, then from 1944 to 1945 was Chairman of Supplies for Liberated Areas Official Committee. He was appointed CMG in 1943, and in 1953 and 1954 was Chairman of the Issuing Houses Association. He succeeded to his father's titles in 1958 and in 1965 became Chairman of Lazards.

After Hampden's death on 17 October 1965 his brother David succeeded as Viscount Hampden, while his two surviving daughters were left as co-heiresses to the Barony of Dacre, which thus went into abeyance. However, the abeyance was terminated in 1970 in favour of his elder surviving daughter Rachel Douglas-Home, 27th Baroness Dacre.
