Richardson was born in 1873. At first she went to a private school for girls. But in 1890 she had to leave school because her father had money trouble. After that she worked at some teaching jobs in Germany and London. She took care of her mother who suffered from depression and killed herself in 1895.
Richardson became a secretary in a dentist's office and lived in Bloomsbury. She met the writer H. G. Wells and they began an affair. This led to pregnancy and a miscarriage. In 1908 she left London and moved to a farm that was owned by a Quaker friend. In 1914 she wrote two books about Quakers.
From 1908 to 1912, she wrote for "The Saturday Review". In 1912 she started writing "Pointed Roofs". This novel was the first of thirteen books that became the group called "Pilgrimage". In 1917 Richardson married a young artist, Alan Odle.
In her novels Richardson found a way of writing that readers thought was something new. In a review of "Pointed Roofs", May Sinclair called Richardson's writing "stream of consciousness." This was the first time that well-known phrase was used about literature.
In 1923 Virginia Woolf described one sentence from "Revolving Lights" in this way: "It is a woman's sentence, but only in the sense that it is used to describe a woman's mind by a writer who is neither proud nor afraid of anything that she may discover in the psychology of her sex."
Richardson died in a nursing home in Kent, England in 1957.

Bruno Luigi D'Ambrosio
Bruno Luigi D'Ambrosio, (born in 9 September 1948 in Salerno (Italy), is an italian writer and businessman, who lives in Florida
His father was Pompeo D'Ambrosio, who took him to Caracas (Venezuela) at the age of 5, which is why he had dual Italian and Venezuelan nationality until he was 21 years old. Since then he is an Italian resident in the USA.
Bruno grew up studying between Caracas and Modena (Italy) where he did the Scientific High School, graduating later from the University of Genoa "summa cum laude" in "Economic Geography".
At the age of 22 he was in charge -by order of his father and his uncle Mino- of the youth section of the fans of the Venezuelan football team Deportivo Italia. (In 2001, the "International Federation of Soccer History and Statistics of FIFA" judged Deportivo Italia as the best Venezuelan soccer team of the 20th century)

He worked in the late 1970s at Saprolate-Tranarg as manager of contracts and was one of the main promotors -in a harsh way- of a single railway line in Venezuela from Maracaibo to Caracas and Ciudad Bolivar (against the tentative of corrupted latifundists of doing many railway lines -as happened years later with president Chavez- and that now are blocked facing lack of money and bankruptcy). Thanks to the "fight" of him and other managers, actually the only line created in Venezuela is the Caracas-Cua, that he promoted
After getting his MBA, Bruno Luigi D'Ambrosio founded his own company (named "Financiaria D'Ambrosio" or "Findam") in Caracas, specializing in financial advice to invest capital in various nations around the world.
Currently (2023) he lives in retirement in Boca Raton (Florida), where he continues to write and publish. He is also a promoter of the local Italian community, receiving the title of "Knight of Columbus".

Ashenda
Ashenda is a yearly Tigrayan festival that originated in Axum region of Tigray and has been adopted by other regions in Ethiopia and Eritrea, which celebrates women and girls. It happens every August, mostly in Tigray State where it is treated like a national holiday. The festival comes after the two weeks of Filseta. During Filseta, people fast, or do not eat, through the day. Filseta and Ashenda honor the Virgin Mary.
In the festival, young women and girls wear white cotton dresses. These dresses have colorful embroidery, called "tilfi". They also wear a lot of jewelry. They weave "ashenda" grass into a bunch, and wear it on their backs, or as a skirt. Ashenda, in the Tigrinya language, is a tall green grass that grows on river banks. Girls often wear five cornrow braids in their hair. The hair is natural. They wear Kohl eyeliner.
On the first day, the girls gather at the middle of the town or village. Then they break up into groups, and walk through the town. They sing and dance for the people in every house, and also in the village square. The people in each house give them money, food, drinks, or other gifts. The women and girls give these gifts to poor people. They sing and dance all day until sunset. This festival may last for a week or more.
Ashenda is thousands of years old. It existed even before Ethiopia became Christian, in the 4th century AD. as the Tigrayans migrated down south they brought the culture to the southern part of Ethiopia it was adopted reflecting the spirit and culture of the locals developing new name E.g in Wello region it's called Shadey, Agew Awi Zone they call is Ashendye, in Gojjam and Shewa region they call it Solel, or Mariya.
According to old stories, King Menelik I of Ethiopia was the son of the ancient Israelite king Solomon. He traveled to Ethiopia with other Israelites in the 10th century BC. In modern times, Jews lived in Ethiopia: the Beta Israel people. Researcher Timkehet Teffera thinks that Ashenda started as an ancient Israelite celebration. Other people think that Ashenda was once a pagan festival. They think it started to celebrate the harvest season, or as a time for women and men to find partners for marriage.
Ethiopia became Christian in the 4th century AD. The meaning of Ashenda changed to focus on the Virgin Mary. It is mainly celebrated in the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. This church says that after Mary died, the Apostles fasted for 14 days. On the 15th day, they buried her. So Ethiopians fast for the first 15 days of "Nahase", a month in the Ethiopian calendar. On the 16th day, Mary rose from the grave. God carried her to Heaven. This event is called the Assumption of Mary. Ashenda starts on "Nahase" 16th, in honor of the Assumption.
The story says that Mary rose from a glowing field of tall grass. Some say that the ashenda grass represents this field. Others say that it is related to the story of Moses. When Moses was born, the king of Egypt said to kill all baby Israelite boys. Moses' mother had to hide her son to save his life. She hid him in a basket in the grasses by a river. The king's daughter found Moses and raised him in secret. One popular Ashenda song is about Moses.
Girls usually wear a white cotton dress. People weave these dresses by hand, without a machine. They put colorful embroidery patterns on the dresses. However, now some girls wear colorful cloths from other countries. Girls usually tie a band of cotton cloth around their waist. They often wear plastic shoes. The girls' hair is braided. A few days before the festival, girls go to local hairdressers. They can braid hair in many complex ways. The girls wear many types of jewelry. It can be made of gold, silver, brass, copper, seashells, coconut shells, beads, or twisted threads. They often wear necklaces, bracelets, and ankle bracelets. They traditionally wear Kohl eyeliner on their face. Today, they also wear other kinds of makeup, or cosmetics. Many girls paint crosses on their forehead.
Many families buy new clothing and jewelry for Ashenda. If the family does not have enough money to buy clothing, neighbors or relatives will lend it to them. Each group of girls plans what they will wear for Ashenda, so they can all wear the same style.
Ashenda involves singing, dancing, and playing drums. Older family members, especially mothers, teach Ashenda traditions to the girls. Most Ashenda groups have at least one boy with them. Traditionally, boys walk with the girls to protect them. During Ashenda, girls meet many different people. So it can also be a time to find a husband.
On the first day of Ashenda, girls go to a church and pray. They then sing songs of praise to St. Mary. After this, they go to houses and sing and dance. The people in each house usually give them gifts. Some common gifts are chicken stew, honey wine, local beer, and money. Then the girls sing a special song to thank them.
Some Ashenda songs are about political topics. They may criticize people in the village, or in the government. The girls are free to say anything they want in their songs. Tradition says that nobody can stop them from talking. Girls in Ethiopia do not usually have this freedom. So Ashenda is a special time for them. Ashenda songs may also say nice things about people in the town. Girls may sing about unity and belonging. They may sing about the joy of the celebration.
The songs are usually sung in two parts: the group leader, and everyone else. They are often sung as an antiphon, or call and response. The drum and hand claps keep a rhythm.

Social care
Social care is the name for help people get when they cannot do things for themselves which most people do. It includes getting out of bed, getting dressed, washing, eating and moving about and staying safe. People who need social care include hospital patients who need help after an operation, people with physical or learning disabilities who want to live independently at home, and young people from difficult families and children in foster care.
Local governments in many countries set up large homes for old people. People with mental illness or learning difficulty often lived in big hospitals for years. These institutions have mostly closed and now more people get help in their own homes or in group homes. They may pay for it, or in a welfare state it may be free. More people need social care as more people live to be old and people survive with conditions which in earlier times would have meant an early death.
Social workers are employed to make decisions about the help people need if the government is paying. The people who are paid do this work may be called care workers. They are mostly women and the pay is low. People often leave for better paid work in retail.
The State of Guernsey said in November 2022 that it would have to cut back social care because people were living longer with more needs. It was hard to find enough people to do the work.

Martyrs Shrine
Martyr's shrines () are religious buildings in China that honor and remember people who died for their country. They are built separately from other buildings and can be converted from other types of shrines such as Shinto shrines. They also help teach people about the importance of loyalty and righteousness and Confucian values.
In China, there were shrines that honored loyal people and soldiers who died for their country. The emperor gave the shrines their names. One of these shrines, called Fayuan Temple, was built to remember soldiers who died in battle. It was first named Jienzhongsa Temple but later renamed Fayuan Temple. This tradition also spread to other places like Korea and Vietnam. When the monarchy ended, the government continued to make shrines for the martyrs.
Originally, many of the shrines in Taiwan that remember people who died while serving their country were Shinto shrines. After World War II, the Nationalist government converted them to their current use. These shrines are dedicated to officers, soldiers, police, and people who died for the Republic of China.
According to the "Rules for the Sacrifice of Martyrs' Shrines" by the Ministry of the Interior of the R.O.C., these shrines are located at municipal governments in cities and counties. The National Revolutionary Martyrs' Shrine is located in the central government seat and the President leads the ceremony.
In 1998, a legal amendment allowed civilians who were not in the military to be inducted into the shrine. The first civilian to be inducted was Lin Ching-chuan, a teacher who died saving children in a fire. Some police officers, firefighters, and healthcare workers who died in the line of duty, as well as postal workers who died while serving, have also been commemorated at the shrine..

Amy has a phone call. The caller makes strange sounds and then hangs up. The caller is Kif. Kif loves Amy but is afraid to talk to her. Zapp Brannigan hears that Kif loves Amy and that Amy works with Leela, so he asks Leela to come out with him and Kif and bring Amy as a double date. Leela agrees but only because Amy wants to go. The four of them go to a restaurant on a large spaceship.
The date is bad, and Zapp crashes the restaurant ship into a strange planet. This planet is Amazonia. The Amazonians, a tribe of giant, muscular women, catch Kif, Zapp, Leela, and Amy.
Fry and Bender go to Amazonia to save their friends but the Amazonians catch them too. Fry, Zapp, and Bender make jokes about the Amazonian's female ideas, which makes Leela and Amy think life without men would be good. The Amazonians ask what purpose men. Amy tries to answer, and the Amazonians realize she is describing "snu-snu" (sexual intercourse), something they have heard of but never done.
The Amazonians' leader, a giant computer called Femputer (Bea Arthur), decides to punish the men. Bender says that he does not have male anatomy, so the Femputer lets him leave. Femputer says Zapp, Fry, and Kif are must die, but she says it will be "death by snu-snu," meaning the Amazonians will have sex with them until they are dead. Kif does not want to die by snu-snu, but Zapp and Fry are both happy and upset. Fry says, "I never thought I'd die like this, but I'd always really hoped." Kif tells Amy that he loves her. Amy resolves to save him.
Zapp and Fry are snu-snued off-screen. Kif climbs to the ceiling and escapes from at least one of the Amazonians. Later, both Zapp and Fry ask for the snu-snuing to stop because they are tired, but the Amazonians continue.
Leela and Amy tell Bender to find the Femputer and reprogram her to let the men live. He sees that the Femputer is a really fembot. She tells Bender that she created the Amazonian society because her home planet was ruled by mean men. Amy rescues Kif; the Amazonians chase after them, cornering them in the Femputer's chamber. By this time, however, Bender and the fembot have become romantic. They tell the Amazonians to release their captives and bring gold.
The crew returns to Earth where Fry and Zapp receive treatment for broken hip bones, but they are both happy that they had snu-snu. Bender has a pile of gold bricks, and Kif and Amy are a couple. They all agree that Amazonia was their best mission ever.
The episode's title comes from the movie "Amazon Women on the Moon". At the space restaurant, Zapp sings "Lola" to Leela. This a parody of William Shatner trying to sing "Rocket Man." The bar "Le'Palm d'Orbit" is a reference to "Palme d'Or." Zapp calls himself "the Velour Fog" because sing Mel Torme's nickname is "the Velvet Fog."

Housing Benefit
Housing Benefit is a means tested social security benefit in the United Kingdom that is intended to help with the costs of rent.
Rent rebates, as they were called, started in the 1930s when council houses were built to clear slums. The rents were often to high for the poor people who had lived in the slums. Local councils made their own arrangements. The first national system started in 1972. It covered rates as well as rent. For people in private housing it was called rent allowance. People who got Supplementary Benefit had all their rent paid. People who had more money than that still got some help. By 1983 about 30% of the population were getting Housing Benefit. After 1986 it was lined up with the rules for Income Support.
From 2019 housing benefit was moved into Universal Credit except for people above State Pension age and people living in supported, sheltered or temporary housing.
in 2022 2 million private renting households, 38% of the total, were getting help with rent from either Universal Credit or Housing Benefit.
Private tenants can only claim for a rent up the level of the Local Housing Allowance where they live. This is based on private market rents being paid by tenants in a Broad Rental Market Area. Local Housing Allowance started in 2008. There are rules about number of bedrooms a household can claim for. They do not apply to pensioners.
In 2023 the Chancellor announced that the Local Housing Allowance would be re-pegged to the 30th percentile of local rents in April 2024, but it would then be frozen again.
Housing benefit is also limited by the benefit cap, which has not been increased."."
Wulfstan
Wulfstan (d.1023) is known to be an influential monk and a remarkable writer of homilies.
It is speculated that he was born in York, not far from the Ship of the Fens, namely the Ely Cathedral. His date of birth remains a mystery to this day. It is also speculated that he was born into a family that owned lands which they lost upon the arrival of the Danish Warrior, King Cnut, in England in 1016. King Cnut is often described as the most effective king in Anglo-Saxon history.
Wulfstan is known as one of the most notable and unique Old English writers. He was best known for his religious texts (homilies, sermons, religious canon) but also for political theory and writing of laws. Wulfstan was one of the two major writers in early 11th century England. His writing of religious text was influenced by Benedictine Reform - which tried to unite the rules for monks, including the promotion of regular life for priests and a strict church order. Wulfstan used his homilies to teach priests and monks.
His works were often influenced by the political situation at that time, addressing social instability.
Wulfstan was a native speaker of Old English, specifically the West-Saxon dialect. He also spoke Latin and Old Norse (which was brought to England by people of Scandinavian origin).
Some of his works can be recognized through his handwriting and text organization. In his homilies, he uses wide margins. His writing is perfectly aligned on the left side.

Inauguration of Andrew Johnson
The inauguration of Andrew Johnson as the 17th president of the United States happened on April 15, 1865, at Kirkwood House in Washington, D.C. It was held after Abraham Lincoln, the president of the United States, was killed. The inauguration marked the start of Andrew Johnson's only term (a partial term of ) as president.
Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase administered the presidential oath of office to Johnson. This inauguration was the third one to not be held on a scheduled date, which was normally March 4.
After being sworn in, President Johnson gave a short inaugural address that was impromptu (unprepared). In his speech, he asked Lincoln's cabinet to stay with him, and then attacked the Confederate States of America. One person who heard the speech said, "It would have been better had he been struck dumb."
Some newspaper reports said Johnson had gotten heavily drunk, in that when President Lincoln's aides came to get to Johnson, they were not able to wake him up for a short time. The reports said that when Johnson was awoken, "he had puffy eyes and his hair was caked with mud from the street," and that a barber and doctor came to clean him up for the ceremony, which most reports said went smoothly.
However, this has been disagreed on, according to other reports believed more accurate by some.
