Madeleine of Valois
Madeleine of Valois (10 August 1520 – 7 July 1537) was a French princess who briefly became Queen of Scotland in 1537 as the first wife of King James V. The marriage was arranged in accordance with the Treaty of Rouen, and they were married at Notre-Dame de Paris in January 1537, despite French reservations over her failing health. Madeleine died in July 1537, only six months after the wedding and less than two months after arriving in Scotland, resulting in her nickname, the "Summer Queen".

Loire Valley
The Loire Valley (French: Vallée de la Loire, pronounced [vale də la lwaʁ]), spanning 280 kilometres (170 mi), is a valley located in the middle stretch of the Loire river in central France, in both the administrative regions Pays de la Loire and Centre-Val de Loire. The area of the Loire Valley comprises about 800 square kilometres (310 sq mi). It is referred to as the Cradle of the French and the Garden of France due to the abundance of vineyards, fruit orchards (such as cherries), and artichoke and asparagus fields, which line the banks of the river. Notable for its historic towns, architecture, and wines, the valley has been inhabited since the Middle Palaeolithic period. In 2000, UNESCO added the central part of the Loire River valley to its list of World Heritage Sites.
Arachnoid (astrogeology)
In astrogeology, an arachnoid /əˈræknɔɪd/ is a large geological structure resembling a spider web. They are of unknown origin, and have been found only on the surface of the planet Venus. They appear as concentric ovals surrounded by a complex network of fractures, and can span 200 kilometers. Over 90 arachnoids have been identified on Venus.

Arachnoids could be related to volcanos, however it is also possible that different arachnoids are formed by different processes. One possible explanation is that an upwelling of magma from the interior of the planet pushed up on the surface, causing cracks. An alternate hypothesis concerning their origin is that they are a precursor to coronae formation.

Much of what is known about arachnoids is the result of studies performed by C.B. Dawson and L.S. Crumpler.

Fracture
Fracture is the appearance of a crack or complete separation of an object or material into two or more pieces under the action of stress. The fracture of a solid usually occurs due to the development of certain displacement discontinuity surfaces within the solid. If a displacement develops perpendicular to the surface, it is called a normal tensile crack or simply a crack; if a displacement develops tangentially, it is called a shear crack, slip band, or dislocation.

Brittle fractures occur without any apparent deformation before fracture. Ductile fractures occur after visible deformation. Fracture strength, or breaking strength, is the stress when a specimen fails or fractures. The detailed understanding of how a fracture occurs and develops in materials is the object of fracture mechanics.
Larry Kennedy (politician)
Larry Ronald Kennedy (born November 8, 1949, in Perth-Andover, New Brunswick) is a politician in the province of New Brunswick, Canada.

Kennedy studied at the University of New Brunswick in Fredericton where he earned a Bachelor of Science before going on to earn his Doctor of Medicine degree from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Kennedy served as a village councillor for Perth-Andover and was chairman of the District 31 School Board. A practising physician in his hometown area, he was chief and president of the medical staff at Hotel-Dieu Saint-Joseph, and a director of the New Brunswick Medical Society.

He was elected to the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick in 1987 and re-elected in 1991, 1995, a 1997 by-election, 1999, 2003 and 2006.  He was currently Dean of the House from 2006 to 2010.

He represented the electoral district of Victoria-Tobique until his defeat in the 2010 election and also practices medicine as a family physician.

Victoria-Tobique
Victoria-Tobique was a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, Canada.  This riding was created in the 1973 redistribution when New Brunswick moved to single member districts. It had previously been part of the Victoria district which returned two members.

The riding, which was not changed in the 1994 redistribution, is made up of the anglophone parts of Victoria County which are primarily along the Tobique River. It includes three incorporated municipalities: Perth-Andover, Plaster Rock, and Aroostook as well as the Tobique First Nation Indian reserve.

Kinchaku
Kinchaku (巾着, lit. 'cloth + wearing / on one's person') is a traditional Japanese drawstring bag, used like a handbag (similar to the English reticule) for carrying around personal possessions; smaller ones are usually used as sagemono (a hanging object attached to an obi), and used to carry small objects such as loose coinage,
cosmetics, lucky charms, hand warmers and mobile phones. Larger versions can be used to carry bento (packed lunchboxes) and utensils, as well as other larger possessions. The bags traditionally carried by maiko and geisha are a variant on kinchaku, and are called kago (篭) (literally 'basket') after their woven basket base.

Drawstring
A drawstring (draw string, draw-string) is a string, rope or lace used to "draw" (gather, or shorten) fabric or other material. Ends of a drawstring are often terminated with a sheath called an aglet. The ends may be tied to hold the drawstring in place (and simultaneously close an opening). Alternatively, it may be kept drawn using a cordlock. Typically, the drawstring is loose when not being used and tightened when needed during use.

A drawstring may be threaded through a hem or casing (a continuous tube of material) or laced through holes, which may be lined with eyelets. A shoelace is a drawstring.  It may also be laced through loops attached to the material, in the same way that belt loops are. A belt is a usually flat drawstring.

Uddhava
Uddhava (Sanskrit: उद्धव, romanized: Uddhava) is a character from the Puranic texts of Hinduism, described to be the friend and counsellor of Krishna. He plays a significant role in the Bhagavata Purana, being taught the processes of yoga and bhakti directly by Krishna. The principle of these discussions is often referred to as the Uddhava Gita, similarly to the Bhagavad Gita wherein Krishna instructs Arjuna.

According to some texts Uddhava was also Krishna's cousin, being the son of Devabhaga, who was the brother of Vasudeva, Krishna's father. His physical appearance was so like that of Krishna's that in some instances, he is mistaken for the latter. The Mahabharata mentions that Uddhava was a minister of the Vrishnis, whom they all regarded and respected. The Bhagavata Purana mentions that Uddhava was a disciple of Brihaspati.
