The Battle of Nesbit Moor was an engagement fought in August 1355 between forces of the Kingdom of Scotland and the Kingdom of England.

Background
Hostilities broke out in early 1355, following the end of a truce, and the breakdown of negotiations for the release of David II from English captivity. Immediately after the end of the truce, the English raided Scotland and burnt the lands of Patrick V, Earl of March.

Raid at Norham
The Earl of March in retaliation, with William, Lord of Douglas, with their contingents, supplemented by a force of sixty French knights marched to the Merse in August. Douglas sent Sir William Ramsay of Dalhousie, and a force of men to despoliate and raid the country around Norham Castle, captained by Sir Thomas Grey. Douglas' ploy was to encourage Grey into an ambush.

Ramsay called on Grey and his garrison to come out of the castle and fight them. Grey, suspicious of other marauding Scots forces, sent scouts to look for evidence of them, but kept behind the stout walls of the castle. Ramsay's men burnt the village, and drove off the chattels and beasts. The scouts returned with nothing to report. Incensed at Ramsay's depredations, Grey and Lord Dacre led a force of men-at-arms to pursue the Scots and recover the stolen gear and livestock.

Battle
March and Douglas meanwhile had hidden in woods to the south of Duns. Ramsay abandoned the livestock and rode north to lure Grey into the ambush. Grey left the cattle to be collected later, pursued Ramsay, and led his men directly into the trap. Douglas and March's main force then cut off any chance of Grey's retreat by moving between them and the border. As soon as Grey saw the banners of March and Douglas battle was joined.  The Englishmen rushed the Scots, but soon the superior Scottish numbers began to tell. The Scots won the day and took many prisoners, including Dacre, Grey, and his newly knighted son Sir Thomas Grey, and losing very few of their own, excepting John Haliburton of Dirleton.

Aftermath
The important English prisoners were taken away into captivity. Most of the common soldiers were bought by one of the French knights, who had them massacred in revenge for the earlier death of his father at English hands. This incident gave rise to a local landmark known as "Slaughter Hill". The garrison at Berwick, on hearing of the fight, marched on Norham, expecting it to be under siege. March, Douglas, and Thomas Stewart, 2nd Earl of Angus, aided by the French knights, counter-attacked and captured Berwick. Unable to take the Castle, March ordered Berwick set ablaze. The Scots retreated following news of a large army advancing under Edward III of England, who then proceeded into Scotland and laid waste to Lothian, killing and burning as he went, in an episode that would be remembered as the Burnt Candlemas.

Paul Dittrich (11 November 1868, Vienna, Austro-Hungarian Empire – 30 December 1939, Salzburg, Nazi Germany) was an Austrian photographer who established himself in Ottoman Egypt in 1894. He succeeded Ignaz Heyman at Heyman's studio in Cairo. Dittrich was one of the photographers to the Court of Egypt. 

American journalist Amédée Baillot de Guerville refers to him in his book New Egypt (1905) by stating:"To those in Cairo I can thoroughly recommend either M. Lekégian or M. Dittrich, photographer to the Court. The latter has a wonderful collection of portraits, admirably done, of all the more important persons. His rooms are a real museum of all the celebrities, masculine and feminine, whom Cairo has known in the last five-and-twenty years."

Eunice Kate Watts (née Nowlan;  – 25 February 1924) was a British secularist and feminist writer and lecturer. She was one of the most prominent women active in the British freethought movement in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

She was born in London to William and Eunice Nowlan, a freethinking family. In 1870 she married Charles Watts (after the death of his first wife, Mary Ann), and their daughter Kate Eunice Watts was born in May 1875. She was a committed advocate of female education and emancipation. Her series of articles 'The Education and Position of Women' in the Secular Review in 1879 argued that women should have the freedom to earn their own living, live in equal terms with their husbands if they chose to marry, and live a single life without fear of social opprobrium. She also wrote the pamphlet Christianity: Defective and Unnecessary 

Watts rose to prominence for her opposition to then NSS President & Founder Charles Bradlaugh's involvement in the Knowlton Trial, and was one of the founding members of the British Secular Union, the rival to Bradlaugh's NSS. In 1877 she wrote Reply to Mr Bradlaugh outlining her opposition, which centred on the internal politics of the secular movement and her desire to disassociate secularism with "sexual immorality" of the Owenite movement. She nonetheless indicated that she supported the need for birth control and sex education.

Metaculus is an American reputation-based, massive online prediction solicitation and aggregation engine. One of the focuses of Metaculus is predicting the timing, nature and impact of scientific and technological advances and breakthroughs.

Reward system
Three types of predictions can be made: probability predictions to binary questions that resolve as either 'yes' or 'no', numerical-range predictions, and date-range predictions. Users can contribute to the community prediction for any given question, leave comments and discuss prediction strategies with other users. Users can suggest new questions which, after moderation, will be opened to the community.

Users can earn points for successful predictions (or lose points for unsuccessful predictions), and track their own predictive progress. The scoring awards points both for being right and for being more right than the community.

In January 2020, Metaculus introduced the Bentham Prize, which awards bi-weekly monetary prizes of $300, $200 and $100 to the first, second and third most valuable user contributions. The following month, Metaculus introduced the Li Wenliang prize, which awards a number of different monetary prizes to questions, forecasts and analyses related to the COVID-19 outbreak.

History
Data scientist Max Wainwright and physicists Greg Laughlin and Anthony Aguirre launched the site in 2015.

In June 2017, the Metaculus Prediction was launched, which is a system for aggregating user predictions.
The Metaculus Prediction, on average, outperforms the median of the community's predictions when evaluated using the Brier or Log scoring rules.

In 2021, Metaculus received a Effective altruism infrastructure fund grant worth $300k. In 2022, Metaculus received a $5.5m grant from Open Philanthropy. In October 2022, Metaculus received $20k funding from the FTX future fund, 3 weeks before the bankruptcy of FTX.

The US Post Office-Greenfield Main is a historic post office at 442 Main Street in Greenfield, Massachusetts.  Built in 1915 and enlarged in 1939, it is a good example of a post office with Beaux Arts and Classical Revival features.  It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985, and included in the Main Street Historic District in 1988.

Description and history
Greenfield's main post office occupies a prominent location in downtown Greenfield, on the north side of Main Street opposite the Franklin County Courthouse.  It consists of a two-story main block, with virtually identical single-story wings extending to either side.  Broad steps, flanked on either side by original light fixtures on iron stands, lead to the main entrance.  It features restrained Colonial Revival decorations, including a two-story pilastered pediment surrounding a recessed arched entrance with ornate features.  Windows are tall sash, set in slightly recessed arched blinds.  The interior lobby spaces has terrazzo marble floors, granite wainscoting, and stained woodwork.  A bronze sculpture stands in the lobby; it was placed in 1941, and is the work of Hélène Sardeau.

The central two-story portion of the building was built in 1915 to a design by Oscar Wenderoth, then the head of the Office of the Supervising Architect at the United States Treasury Department.   The building was expanded in 1939, adding single story wings on each side.  It is one of the city's most architecturally sophisticated buildings.
