Albert Schweitzer's Legacy for Education: Reverence for Life
Albert Schweitzer's Legacy for Education: Reverence for Life is a 2011 book by American philosopher of education and author Anthony Gordon Rud. It is the first monograph devoted to the study of German polymath Albert Schweitzer's philosophy and work in relation to education. The book is divided into two parts: the first examines Schweitzer's biography, philosophical influences, and the development of his ethical principle of Reverence for Life; the second applies these ideas to educational theory and practice, introducing the concept of "practical reverence" as a framework for teaching, learning, and school leadership. Rud studied Schweitzer's autobiographical writings, his recently translated correspondence with his wife Hélène Bresslau, and the work of thinkers including Immanuel Kant, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and John Dewey. The book also addresses criticisms of Schweitzer, especially regarding colonialism, and surveys various educational initiatives inspired by his philosophy.

St. James' Church, Delhi

The building, which was built in 1836 for James Skinner, is one of the oldest churches in the city. It remains part of the Church of North India Diocese of Delhi.

St. James' Church is situated near Kashmiri Gate, at the intersection of Church Road and Lothian Road.

Sheet bend
The sheet bend (also known as weaver's knot and weaver's hitch) is a bend knot. It is practical for joining lines of different diameter or rigidity.

It is quick and easy to tie, and is considered so essential it is the first knot given in the Ashley Book of Knots. Additionally, it is one of the six knots given in the International Guild of Knot Tyers' Six Knot Challenge, along with the clove hitch, bowline, reef knot (square knot), round turn and two half-hitches, and sheepshank.

The sheet bend is related in structure to the bowline; like the bowline, it has a tendency to work loose when not under load. For increased security, it is sometimes recommended that one add another turn in the smaller end, making a double sheet bend; in most cases, however, a single sheet bend should suffice. The becket hitch is another structurally similar knot.

As a bend, its advantages lie in its simplicity and non-jamming properties.

It is commonly taught in Scouting.

Sheepshank
A shank is a type of knot that is used to shorten a rope or take up slack, such as the sheepshank. The sheepshank knot is not stable. It will fall apart under too much load or too little load.

The knot has several features which allow a rope to be shortened:

It provides two loops, one at each end of the knot which can be used to pass another rope through

The knot remains somewhat secure under tension; the coarser the rope the more secure it is (see Disadvantages, below)

The knot falls apart easily when tension is removed
San Francisco 2004 same-sex weddings
The San Francisco 2004 same-sex weddings, commonly referred to as the Winter of Love, took place between February 12 and March 11, 2004, after San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom directed the city-county clerk to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. California Attorney General Bill Lockyer and a number of interest groups sued to end the practice. About 4,000 such licenses were issued before the California Supreme Court ordered a halt to the practice on March 11. On August 12, 2004, the California Supreme Court voided all of the licenses that had been issued in February and March.

The legal dispute over the issuance of marriage licenses to same-sex couples led to the 2008 In re Marriage Cases ruling by the California Supreme Court, which legalized same-sex marriage in California.

Supreme Court of California
The Supreme Court of California is the highest and final court of appeals in the courts of the U.S. state of California. It is headquartered in San Francisco at the Earl Warren Building, but it regularly holds sessions in Los Angeles and Sacramento. Its decisions are binding on all other California state courts.

Quintus Caecilius (adoptive father of Atticus)
Quintus Caecilius (born c. 130 BC) was a Roman military leader known for his palace in Tampillium on the Quirinal Hill, which featured a beautiful hanging garden in oriental style, with towers and terraces surrounded by a grove of trees. Other properties he was noted for owning include a house and a tomb at the Fifth Mile of the Appian Way, where he was buried. He was able to afford these luxuries from the favours he received during his campaign in Asia, granted to him by his relative, perhaps his first cousin, Lucius Licinius Lucullus.

Not having issue, he adopted his maternal nephew, the son of his sister Caecilia and her husband Titus Pomponius, Titus Pomponius Atticus; who for that reason became called Quintus Caecilius Pomponianus Atticus.

Appian Way
The Appian Way (Latin and Italian: Via Appia) is one of the earliest and strategically most important Roman roads of the ancient republic. It connected Rome to Brindisi, in southeast Italy. Its importance is indicated by its common name, recorded by Statius, of Appia longarum... regina viarum ('the Appian Way, the queen of the long roads'). The road is named after Appius Claudius Caecus, the Roman censor who, during the Samnite Wars, began and completed the first section as a military road to the south in 312 BC.

In July 2024, the Appian Way entered the UNESCO World Heritage List.
