Lennox Castle is an abdandoned castle in Lennoxtown, East Dunbartonshire, Scotland, approximately  north of Glasgow. It is infamous for previously hosting Lennox Castle Hospital, Scotland's "largest institution for people with learning disabilities".

The castle was built between 1837 and 1841 by David Hamilton for John Lennox Kincaid, on the Lennox of Woodhead Estate, replacing Kincaid House. In 1927, the castle and its land was purchased by the Glasgow Corporation, and converted into a hospital for people with learning disabilities; the hospital opened in 1936. The castle itself was the nurses' home, whilst its grounds provided accommodation for about 1,200 patients. The Scotsman reports that soon afterwards, the facilities were "vastly overcrowded, understaffed and underfunded".

By 1982, 1360 patients between the ages of 10 and 80 years old were looked after by around 500 staff- with fewer than half of these being trained nurses. The Scottish Hospitals Advisory Service had visited the year before and recommended a further 100 staff. The care provided by the hospital was reported to be poor, with patients being malnourished.

There was also a separate maternity unit in operation between the 1940s and 1960s; singer Lulu and footballer John Brown were among the babies born there.

This hospital was closed in 2002, as a reflection in changes to how society treated patients with learning disabilities with a view to keeping them in the community. Further it was noted that patients were treated poorly by staff.

The castle itself (Category A listed since the 1970s) is in ruins following a fire in 2008. Part of the grounds of the castle were converted into Celtic F.C.'s Lennoxtown Training Centre (opened in 2007), while other parts towards Lennoxtown village have become a long-term residential development to be completed in several phases, known as Campsie Village.

Tudur Aled (c. 1465 – 1525) was a late medieval Welsh poet, born in Llansannan, Denbighshire (Sir Ddinbych). He is regarded as a master of cynghanedd.

Beginnings
It is uncertain when Tudur Aled started to write poetry. A remark by him in his elegy to Dafydd ab Edmwnd suggests that Tudur Aled was his pupil. There are firm references to the Battle of Blackheath (1497). An allusion to the Battle of Bosworth Field (1485) has been suspected in his cywydd to Sir William Gruffudd the Chamberlain. A reference in an elegy to him by Raff ap Robert suggests that he had a wife and a son, who was a priest.

Reputation
Tudur Aled was himself a nobleman and one of the foremost Beirdd yr Uchelwyr (Poets of the Nobility). His main patrons were the Salisbury family of Dyffryn Clwyd, and Rhys ap Thomas. He was one of the instigators of the Caerwys eisteddfod of 1523.

During his final illness, Tudur Aled took the habit of Order of St. Francis. He died in Carmarthen, where he was buried in the Brothers' Court. The event was marked by elegies written by several of his fellow poets. He was known particularly for poems in honour of secular and religious noblemen. His work also reflects the changes at the beginning of the 16th century, which were threatening the future of the bardic system.

John Hillman, P.E. (born April 20, 1963) is an American structural engineer who invented the hybrid composite beam (HCB) and founded the HC Bridge Company. In 2010, he was recognized with the Award of Excellence from Engineering News-Record.

Education and career
Born in North Dakota and raised in east Tennessee, Hillman received a bachelor's degree from the University of Tennessee in 1986 and a master's degree in civil engineering (MSCE) from Virginia Tech in 1990. Hillman has worked at several well-known bridge companies including Figg & Muller (see Eugene Figg), Jean Muller International (see Jean M. Muller), VSL, Teng & Associates in Chicago. He is currently employed at Kiewit (see Kiewit Corporation) in Denver, Colorado.

Development and design of the hybrid composite beam
At one point in his career, Hillman worked on developing fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bridges. This led to his idea of the hybrid composite beam: combining a concrete and steel tied arch structure within an FRP box. A $320,000 grant from the Transportation Research Board's Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis (IDEA) program paid for the first HCB's to be constructed.(insert ENR ref tag) These beams were installed on a railroad test track (the Federal Railroad Administration's Facility for Accelerated Service Testing (FAST) loop at the Transportation Technology Center near Pueblo, Colorado). There the beams successfully supported a heavily-loaded train.

The hybrid composite beam is single structural element, a beam. It is constructed as a composite of three materials steel strands, concrete, and fiber reinforced polymer. The materials are arranged in a manner that the materials act as what would traditionally be separate structural elements. The concrete is in the shape of an arch and carries compressive load internal to the beam. The steel strands act as a tie for the arch and carry the tensile load internal to the beam. The FRP shell carries the shear and bending moment internal to the beam. This means that the beam acts structurally in a hybrid nature, somewhere between a tied-arch and a beam.

Awards and distinctions
 2010 Award of Excellence from Engineering News-Record for creating a new type of structural beam.
 Semi-finalist, 2007 Modern Marvels Invent Now Challenge from the National Inventors Hall of Fame.

The Man Who Melted Jack Dann is the name of a word game inspired by Jack Dann's book The Man Who Melted (1984). The aim of the game is to place the writer's name in front or behind the title of one of the writer's book and see if you get a funny sentence. Extra credit is given for shifting a word's part of speech entirely, or appropriating part of the name as part of the sentence or phrase. For example Two Sisters Gore Vidal, The Joy of Cooking Irma S. Rombauer, Captain Blood Returns Raphael Sabatini, Flush Virginia Woolf, Paradise Lost John Milton, Clans of the Alphane Moon Philip K. Dick, Contact Carl Sagan, Tim O'Brien Going after Cacciato, Dan Brown Lost Symbol, and The Martian Chronicles Ray Bradbury.

Dorothy Bradshaigh  (baptised 1705, d. 1785), British letter writer and cookery book compiler. After her marriage she lived at Haigh Hall near Wigan. Her letters and suggestions to Samuel Richardson influenced his novel The History of Sir Charles Grandison.

Life
Bradshaigh was baptised on 21 March 1705 at Rufford, Lancashire. She was born with the last name of Bellingham - her parents were Elizabeth, (born Spencer) and some-time lawyer William Bellingham. She and her sister Elizabeth were her father's co-heirs and they shared their childhood home with Elizabeth Hesketh who was their mother's daughter from her first marriage. Her father's family home had been Levens Hall in Westmoreland until this was sold in 1688 as a result of the over spending by her paternal uncle, Alan. Her father's finances were transformed when he married her mother.

She contacted Samuel Richardson anonymously when his novel Clarissa was part published in 1748. Her initial two letters requested a happy ending for the serialised work and Samuel replied to her by placing an advert in the Whitehall Evening Post. She used a nom de plume of Belfour as she sent him many more letters. She did not reveal that she was his correspondent until February 1750 and she met him in the following month.

She and Samuel Richardson exchanged more letters and he shared drafts of his next novel, The History of Sir Charles Grandison, with her. She would make comments in the margins of his drafts and he would then make amendments. Richardson wrote that his book was "owing to you … more than to any one Person besides". Richardson valued her opinions and he planned to reissue his earlier novels Pamela and Clarissa based on her comments. Dorothy and her sister identified her with the character of Charlotte in The History of Sir Charles Grandison. Edward Haytley painted a portrait of her and her husband which includes Haigh Hall in the background. Richardson requested a copy of the painting for himself, in exchange for a copy of a painting of him. In Hayter's painting she holds a book and her husband has a telescope to show their interests.

Private life
She married Sir Roger Bradshaigh, Baronet and they had no children.

Death and legacy
Her husband died in 1770 and she died in 1785 at Haigh Hall. She created a cookery book which is extant.

In 1804 a "fictitous" portrait of her was engraved and published. This is now in the National Portrait Gallery.

Paragordius is a genus of worms belonging to the family Chordodidae. It was independently described by both Lorenzo Camerano in 1897 and Thomas Harrison Montgomery Jr. in 1898, though both authors gave the genus the same name.

The genus has almost cosmopolitan distribution, although most species are known from the Afrotropic and Neotropic regions. Females of the genus are notable for having three posterior lobes, while males have long tail lobes, allowing Paragordius species to be readily identified.

Species:

Paragordius amicus 
Paragordius andreasii 
Paragordius areolatus 
Paragordius cinctus 
Paragordius dartevallei 
Paragordius diversolobatus

Cordia platythyrsa or West African cordia is a tall, flowering tree in the borage family (Boraginaceae), native to western and central Africa. Its soft wood is often used for furniture or other carpentry. It is considered "vulnerable" as it is threatened by logging.

Common names include ebe or mukumari (Cameroon, Gabon), omo (Nigeria), and tweneboa (Ghana).

Range
West african cordia is native to Cameroon, Congo, Ivory Coast, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, the Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Liberia, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Togo, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Description and uses

The tree grows to over 30 m in height and 1 m in diameter. The wood is pale yellow to almost white in color and used mainly for furniture making, interior joinery, domestic items, canoes, and musical instruments. It has low density (0.5 g/cm) and is very soft (Monnin hardness 1.3), with a spongy, fibrous texture.

Status

The species is classified as vulnerable by the IUCN Red List of Threatened species, due to potential logging threats.

Metropolitan Water Board v Dick Kerr and Co Ltd [1918] AC 119 is an English contract law case, concerning the frustration of an agreement.

Facts
In July 1914, Dick, Kerr & Co agreed to build a reservoir in six years for the Metropolitan Water Board (London). The contract said that Dick, Kerr & Co  should apply to the engineer for an extension of time in the event of delay ‘whatsoever and howsoever occasioned’.

Two years later on 21 February 1916, due to the war, the Ministry of Munitions ordered Dick, Kerr & Co to stop work and sell their plant. The MWB subsequently sued Dick Kerr to complete the reservoir.

Judgment
The House of Lords held that the contract was frustrated, because the delay clause was intended to cover temporary difficulties, and not such fundamental changes in the contract’s nature.
