The 1955 British Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Aintree on 16 July 1955. It was race 6 of 7 in the 1955 World Championship of Drivers. British driver Stirling Moss led a Mercedes 1–2–3–4 domination of the race, to win his first Formula One race narrowly ahead of his illustrious Argentine teammate Juan Manuel Fangio. Several people, including Moss, believed that the Argentine allowed his British protégé to claim his debut win in front of his home crowd. This was, however, at Moss' inquiry, consistently denied by Fangio, who claimed that Moss "was simply faster that day."

Subsequent to the race, the German, Swiss and Spanish Grands Prix were cancelled, in the wake of the Le Mans disaster. With only one Championship round therefore remaining (the Italian Grand Prix some 2 months later), Fangio's points advantage over Moss was sufficient to secure his third World Drivers' Championship.

This was the Formula One debut of future triple world champion Jack Brabham.

This was the last all-Mercedes-powered podium until the 2014 Italian Grand Prix.

Liath Macha ("grey [horse] of Macha") and Dub Sainglend ("black [horse] of Saingliu") are the two chariot-horses of Cúchulainn in the Ulster Cycle of Irish mythology.

Both horses appear to Cúchulainn from the pool of Linn Liaith in the mountains of Sliab Fuait, a gift from either Macha or her sister the Morrígan. Cúchulainn leaps onto their backs, and they run around Ireland for a day but cannot throw him off, after which they were tame.

On the day of Cúchulainn's death, as his enemies gathered for battle, Liath Macha refuses to allow Láeg, Cúchulainn's charioteer, to harness him to the chariot. He only relents for Cúchulainn himself, but weeps tears of blood. He is hit by the second spear thrown by Lugaid mac Con Roí (the first had killed Láeg), and returns to the pool of Linn Liaith in the mountains of Sliab Fuait, where Cúchulainn had originally found him. The sons of Calatin had prophesied to Lugaid before he threw each spear that it would kill a king. When he challenges them each time, they respond that he had killed the king of charioteers and the king of horses. Dub Sainglend continues to pull the chariot, but Lugaid's third spear hit Cúchulainn, who falls out of the chariot. Dub Sainglend runs on, but Liath Macha returns to protect him, killing fifty with his teeth and thirty with each of his hooves. After Cúchulainn dies, Liath Macha leads Conall Cernach to his master's body. Conall, aided by his horse the Dewy or Dripping Red (Deirg nDruchtaig) later avenges Cúchulainn by killing Lugaid.

The Family and Childcare Trust is a UK charity formed from the merger of the Daycare Trust and the Family and Parenting Institute in 2013.

Research 
The   Trust produces extensive research on the early years and family services. The charity's produces three annual reports titled the Childcare Survey, Holiday Childcare Survey and Older People's Care Survey.

The annual Childcare Survey is published in the spring and documents the costs and availability of childcare in the UK. Data from the Childcare Survey has been used by the UK government to assess childcare in the UK and by the Living Wage Foundation to calculate the Living Wage. The Trust also publishes the annual Holiday Childcare Survey is published in the summer and documents the costs and availability of holiday childcare in the UK, and the annual Older People's Care Survey is published in the fall and documents the costs and availability of care for older people in the UK.

Programmes 
The Family and Childcare Trust runs a number of parent-led programmes.

The Parent Champions programme is a peer-to-peer volunteer support programme launched by the Daycare Trust in 2007. The Parent Champions model consists of parents reaching out to local parents in the community and speaking to them about their own  experiences of local family services, particularly early education services.

The Young Dads Collective (YDC) works to reduce levels of poverty and isolation experienced by young dads aged 25 and under. The YDC is made of young dads who engage with and consult family services professionals as experts by experience. The YDC model involves supporting the young members to advocate on behalf of other young dads and developing the members' skill sets and employability.

The Family and Childcare Trust provides the secretariat for the All Party Parliamentary Group for Families in the Early Years.

Bleak House is an antebellum Classical Revival style house in Knoxville, Tennessee. It is on the National Register of Historic Places.

History
The house was first occupied by Robert Houston Armstrong and his wife, Louisa Franklin. It was built in 1858 for the couple as a wedding gift by the bride's father, Major Lawson D. Franklin. Robert Armstrong's father, Drury Armstrong, gave them the land.  The Armstrongs named the house after Charles Dickens' "Bleak House" novel of the same name. The bricks in the house were molded on-site using slave labor.

The home was used by Confederate Generals James Longstreet and Lafayette McLaws as their headquarters from November 17 to December 4 of 1863 during the Battle of Knoxville. Three Confederate sharpshooters who were stationed in the house's tower were killed by Union cannonballs. Two of the cannonballs are still embedded in the walls, and Civil War-era sketches of the slain soldiers are displayed on the walls of the tower.

The home now belongs to local Chapter 89 of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and is commonly called Confederate Memorial Hall.

Crescent Bend, built by Robert Armstrong's father, Drury, and Westwood, built by Robert's daughter, Adelia Armstrong Lutz, still stand a few blocks from the Bleak House on Kingston Pike.
