Context paragraphs:
Arthur Balfour: Arthur James Balfour, 1st Earl of Balfour, (usually , but traditionally /bəɫˈfʉr/ in Scottish English; 25 July 184819 March 1930) was a British Conservative politician who was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from July 1902 to December 1905, and later Foreign Secretary.

Cao Wei: Cao Wei (220–265) was one of the three major states that competed for supremacy over China in the Three Kingdoms period (220–280).  With its capital at Luoyang, the state was established by Cao Pi in 220, based upon the foundations laid by his father, Cao Cao, towards the end of the Eastern Han dynasty.  The name "Wei" first became associated with Cao Cao when he was named the Duke of Wei by the Eastern Han government in 213, and became the name of the state when Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor in 220.  Historians often add the prefix "Cao" to distinguish it from other Chinese states known as "Wei", such as Wei of the Warring States period and Northern Wei of the Southern and Northern Dynasties.  The authority of the ruling Cao family gradually weakened after the death of the second Wei emperor, Cao Rui, and eventually fell into the hands of Sima Yi, a Wei regent, and his family, in 249.  Cao Rui's successors remained as puppet rulers under the control of the Simas until Sima Yi's grandson, Sima Yan, forced the last Wei ruler, Cao Huan, to abdicate the throne and established the Jin dynasty.

Art and culture of Karnataka: The southern state of Karnataka, in India, has a distinct art and culture.  The diverse linguistic and religious ethnicity that are native to state of Karnataka combined with their long histories have contributed immensely to the varied cultural heritage of the state.  Apart from Kannadigas, Karnataka is home to Tuluvas, Kodavas and Konkanis who also consider themselves as Kannadigas.  Minor populations of Tibetan Buddhists and Siddhi tribes plus a few other ethnic groups also live in Karnataka.  The traditional folk arts cover the entire gamut of music, dance, drama, storytelling by itinerant troupes, etc.  Yakshagana, a classical folk play, is one of the major theatrical forms of coastal Karnataka.  Contemporary theatre culture in Karnataka is one of the most vibrant in India with organizations like Ninasam, Ranga Shankara and Rangayana active on foundations laid down by the Gubbi Veeranna Nataka Company.  Veeragase, Kamsale and Dollu Kunitha are popular dance forms.  Bharatanatya also enjoys wide patronage in Karnataka.

It spawned a number of successful singles — "Vasoline" and "Interstate Love Song" both topped the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and hit number 2 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart, while "Big Empty" also cracked the top ten on both charts.  Lesser known album cuts "Pretty Penny" and "Unglued" were also released as promotional radio singles.

Montrose Historic District (Montrose, Alabama): The Montrose Historic District is a historic district comprising fifteen historically significant buildings in the community of Montrose, Alabama.  The district is almost entirely residential, with the exception of the 1890 Montrose Post Office.  Montrose is located on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay, and several homes in the district occupy bayfront lots.  Nine of the homes in the district were designed in the Creole cottage style, a vernacular architectural style popular in the Gulf Coast states.  The Creole cottage homes in the district all feature front facades with five bays and recessed full-length front porches supported by square or chamfered columns.  Many of the houses were built as summer homes for residents of Mobile, for whom Montrose was a popular vacation destination.

Tisias: Tisias ( ; Greek: Τεισίας ; fl.  5th century BC), along with Corax of Syracuse, was one of the founders of ancient Greek rhetoric.  Tisias was reputed to have been the pupil of the lawyer Corax, who agreed to teach Tisias under the condition that he would give him payment for schooling if he won his first case.  If on the other hand, he did not win his first case he would not have to pay the fee because the instruction was useless.  Tisias is said to have developed legal rhetoric upon the foundations laid by Corax's pioneering work in the field of philosophical argument.  He is also believed to have been the teacher of Isocrates.  It has sometimes been asserted that Tisias and Corax are merely legendary personages.  Other scholars contend that Corax and Tisias were the same person.  All we know of the work of Tisias is from references made by later writers, such as Plato, Aristotle, and Cicero.

Styal Cottage Homes: Styal Cottage Homes were open from October 1898 to 1956 and housed destitute children from the Manchester area.  They were established in Styal by the Chorlton Poor Law Union Board of Guardians who financed the project with a loan of £50,000 from Liverpool Corporation.  The foundation stone for the homes was laid on 31 August 1896, by Arthur Balfour, who was then MP for East Manchester.  The architect was JB Broadbent of Manchester.  There were 12 homes, each with 20 beds, and four smaller homes with 10 beds each.  More buildings were added in 1905 and in 1928.

Moubray House: Moubray House, 51 and 53 High Street, is one of the oldest buildings on the Royal Mile, and one of the oldest occupied residential buildings in Edinburgh, Scotland.  The façade dates from the early 17th century, built on foundations laid c.1477.

Paul Bishop's House: The Paul Bishop's House is actually a pair of historic townhouses located at 363-365 Adelaide Street East in the St. Lawrence neighborhood downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada.  The houses, constructed in 1848 by Paul Bishop, sit upon the foundations laid by William Jarvis for his home in 1798.  Jarvis was a member of the Queen’s Rifles and Provincial Secretary and Registrar of Upper Canada.  He selected a site at what is now the southeast corner of Sherbourne and Adelaide Streets and constructed a 30 by 41 foot building of squared logs that he covered with clapboards which he named Jarvis House.

Cottage Homes: From the 1870s, a number of charitable and poor-relief organizations in the United Kingdom who were involved in providing residential care for children began to make use of accommodation known as cottage homes.  Rather than a single, large building which was then more typically used to house children in care, the cottage homes model placed them into family-style groups, typically of around 15-25 children.  Each group lived in a 'cottage' (in reality, it was often a fair-sized house) under the care of an adult 'house mother' (or a married couple as 'house-parents').  The family group principle was originally developed at the Rauhes Haus in Germany and at the agricultural colony for young delinquents at Mettray in France.  The first example of its use in the United Kingdom was the Home for Little Boys, at Farningham, opened in 1865.
