Eyre's tunnel or Lisson Grove Tunnel is a short canal tunnel on the Regent's Canal that passes under Lisson Grove in St John's Wood, north London and opened in 1816. It is only 48 metres long. The two other tunnels on the Regent's Canal are Islington Tunnel and Maida Hill Tunnel. Unlike the other tunnels, Eyre's Tunnel has a (now fenced) towpath.

The tunnel was originally known as Eyre's Tunnel due to its passing beneath land belonging to Richard Eyre, a local landowner. Lisson Grove is a more recent usage clearly following the renaming of the road that passes above the tunnel.

The Ephraim Ward House is a historic house at 121 Ward Street in Newton, Massachusetts.  The two-story wood-frame house was built in 1821, and is one of a few Federal style houses in eastern Newton.  This house was built by Ephraim Ward to replace one built by his ancestor, John Ward, in 1661 on the same site.  The Wards owned farmland in the area until the early 20th century.  The house is five bays wide, with a hip roof and clapboard siding, and a central entrance flanked by pilasters and topped by a paneled entablature.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

The Legislative Assembly of the Azores () is the regional assembly/legislature of the Azores, an autonomous region of Portugal.

History

The regional legislative assembly, since it was first instituted, has maintained its seat in the city of Horta. Initially, it was installed in the building of the masonic temple of the Sociedade Amor da Pátria, from 1976 until 1979, when it was moved to the Casa do Relógio in the old German quarters' Colónia Alemã. Neither of these buildings were sufficiently adequate for the running of the bureaucracy of the regional government, requiring the construction of a new edifice for the Azorean parliament.

A commission was established to investigate the requirements and location for a new building (a terrain overlooking an area with view of the islands of the central group of islands). Consequently, the commission resolved, on 4 June 1981, to initiate the process to construct the new building. In 1982, a public tender "for ideas", was initiated, resulting in 63 registered entrants, and 56 acceptable candidates (23 January 1983). This number was weeded down to 27 proposals, which were analyzed by a board of 10 members. The jurists included: representatives from the Regional Assembly; Regional Directorate for Habitation, Urbanism and Environment; Municipal Council of Horta; Regional Directorate for Culture; National Association of Portuguese Architects; and Order of Engineers.

In second round of study resulted in five candidates, that included architects Adalberto da Rocha Gonçalves Dias, Eduardo Mário Vale Mendes Carqueijeiro; José Gomes Fernandes; Luís Alexandre Ferreira Chaves and Manuel Correia Fernandes. Between 23 and 26 January 1984, the jury awarded the first prize to the team coordinated by Manuel Correia Fernandes, who were assisted by the firm Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, SA (winner of the construction tender). The project was begun on 21 March 1988, and ran for two years: it was inaugurated on 15 July 1990.

The solemn ceremony commemorating the inauguration was presided by the Chief of State, Dr. Mário Soares, and included various figures from Portuguese society. The benediction, by bishop of Angra, Aurélio Granada Escudeiro, which was held in the plenary hall included the participation of the regional deputies, the principal civil, military and eclessiatical authorities, and other invited guests. There were speeches by Paul Valadão (PCP), Rui Meireles (CDS), Martins Goulart (PS) and Madruga da Costa (PSD), who followed the formal introductions by the President of the Assembly Reis Leite, President of the National Assembly, Vítor Crespo, and finally, President Mário Soares.

On 13 August 1992, the zone around the assembly was classified as an "area for the defense and urban control of the classified property", under regulating decree 17/92/A.

Architecture
The legislature is a contemporary structure, constructed specifically for the functioning of the regional assembly, by project architect Manuel Correia Fernandes, and inaugurated in June 1990. Its minimalist design includes a space for plenary sessions of the assembly in the centre block, which is illuminated by a large dome visible from the exterior.

Henry Lakin Simpson (1859 – April 3, 1881) was a United States Navy sailor and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration, the Medal of Honor. He later attended the United States Naval Academy.

Born in London, England, in 1859, Simpson immigrated to the United States and joined the Navy from New York. By October 31, 1877, he was serving as a first class fireman on the , which was at Monrovia, Liberia. On that day, he and another sailor, Ordinary Seaman John Millmore, rescued their shipmate Ordinary Seaman John W. Powers from drowning. For this action, both Simpson and Millmore were awarded the Medal of Honor seven years later, on October 18, 1884. Simpson's award was posthumous.

Simpson was accepted into the United States Naval Academy as an engineering student (then known as cadet-engineers). He was admitted to the class of 1882, but resigned his appointment on February 28, 1881, before graduating.

On Apr. 3, 1881 at age 21  Simpson died of consumption on board the City of Savannah (a steam ship) and was buried at the Delaware County Society of the New Jerusalem Church Burial Ground in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania. In the 1970s all remains were removed and reinterred in a mass grave at Mt Zion Cemetery in Collingdale, Pennsylvania.

Medal of Honor citation
Simpson's official Medal of Honor citation reads:
For rescuing from drowning John W. Powers, ordinary seaman on board the U.S.S. Essex, at Monrovia, Liberia, 31 October 1877.

The Union Street Historic District is a historic district on Union Street between Langley Road and Herrick Road, and at 17–31 Herrick Road in Newton, Massachusetts. It encompasses the city's only significant cluster of 19th century commercial buildings. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

Development in the Newton Centre area did not begin until the arrival of the railroad in the late 1880s, and the construction in 1890 of the railroad station that served the village. The district includes five buildings: three commercial buildings that line the north side of Union Street, the railroad station, and an apartment block on Herrick Street.

The Newton Centre Station (no longer formally affiliated with the railroad line, which now serves the MBTA Green Line D branch) was designed by H. H. Richardson and completed after his death by his successor firm, Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge. It has typical Richardsonian Romanesque styling, with brownstone and granite construction, and an overhanging slate roof with arched eyebrow dormer windows. The station and an adjacent freight and baggage house were listed on the National Register as part of a district of surviving Richardson railroad stations in Newton; the freight building was mostly demolished in 1985, with parts of the original building being incorporated into new construction on the site, and original landscaping by the Olmsted Brothers also does not survive.

The Bray building at 93–105 is the other major building on Union Street. This 2-1/2 story Classical Revival building is built out of buff-colored brick, with a copper-clad hip roof, and a modillioned cornice. Arched windows in the attic are also lined with copper. It was built in 1893 for Mellen Bray, who also built the apartment block at 17–31 Herrick Street.

The Union building at 65–73 Union Street was built in 1896. Georgian Revival in style, it has seven bays with storefronts on the ground level, and an entranceway recessed behind an arch flanked by brick pilasters. It also has a modillioned cornice, with dentil moulding.

Discontinued products

Serif PagePlus

Serif PagePlus is a desktop publishing (page layout) program developed by Serif. The first version was released in 1991 as the first commercial sub-£100 DTP package for Microsoft Windows.  Serif's latest releases all support Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.

PagePlus is primarily written in C++ using Visual Studio 2008, with a heavy dependence on the Microsoft MFC framework. The Windows GDI library was discarded early in development in favour of an in-house composition engine - supporting advanced bitmap and typeface operations. Said engine currently performs well in comparison to other GDI based products.

PagePlus is generally targeted at the "entry level" DTP user, much of the functionality present in market leading applications from companies such as Adobe Systems is present in PagePlus, such as working in the CMYK colour space. PagePlus also has the ability to view, create, edit and publish PDF files. However Serif has failed to achieve much acceptance within professional circles, partly due to the notable absence of Macintosh versions of its products.

There is a free version of the software, called PagePlus Starter Edition. It is based on an older version of the software and some of the features have been disabled. In order to use this software, the user must download and install the program, then get an activation code through their email in order to unlock the software. The user has access to free designs and templates to download at the site.

Serif DrawPlus

Serif DrawPlus is a vector graphics editor for Microsoft Windows. The latest version, DrawPlus X8, is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.

It has many features that can be expected in such a program, such as graphical effects, gradient fills, transparency, animation and image slicing, and is capable of producing professional, high-quality images.

DrawPlus was often criticised for not supporting the SVG format despite being a vector graphics editor.  However, as of version X4 this SVG support has been added.

Like PagePlus, there is a free version of the software, called DrawPlus Starter Edition that is based on an older version of the software with some of the features disabled.

Serif PhotoPlus

Serif PhotoPlus is an image editing program for Microsoft Windows. The latest version is Serif PhotoPlus X8 and is compatible with Windows XP (SP2, 32 bit), Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.

As well as a number of easy to use editing functions such as the PhotoFix and Makeover studios, PhotoPlus also has some features commonly found in higher end products, such as RAW image import, 16-bit end-to-end editing, high DPI support, High Dynamic Range image merging and LAB colour mode. PhotoPlus boasts some other features which are not commonly found in photo editing software such as non-destructive crop and adjustments, intelligent quick shapes, and a comprehensive image export optimizer.

PhotoPlus is available both as a paid-for version (not subscription based like Adobe Photoshop), or as a cut-down Starter Edition  which is completely free.

Serif WebPlus

WebPlus is a web design program for Microsoft Windows, developed by UK-based software company Serif. It allows users to design, create and upload their website onto the internet without any knowledge of HTML or other web technologies.

Much like Microsoft Word, WebPlus uses WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) drag and drop editing to add and position text, images and links as they would appear on the finished web page. Once a user has designed their site, WebPlus can preview the site in a web browser before uploading the site using the in-built FTP.

The software comes with a variety of pre-designed websites which can be used as a template for quickly designing a site. It also provides drawing tools for creating and editing buttons and web graphics.

WebPlus is available both as a paid-for version, WebPlus X8, or as a cut-down Starter Edition which is completely free.

Serif MoviePlus

Serif MoviePlus is a non-linear editing system created by Serif that allows both professional and home users to edit digital video and digital images.

The latest release, MoviePlus X6, runs on Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.

From the early 2000s, MoviePlus has developed an enthusiastic user base. Originally, it was designed largely for editing video from MiniDV camcorders, largely to produce DVDs. Version 4 released in 2004 was a complete re-write of the previous Version 1. It included the ability to edit and generate Windows Media files and MPEG files as well as DV-AVI. Version 4 ran on Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000 and XP. The current version X6 has added many new features including the capability to edit and generate QuickTime, MPEG-4 and High Definition HDV files.

MoviePlus is affordable and popular with home and semi-professional filmmakers. It can be used to edit material from FireWire-attached MiniDV video from a consumer digital video camera, professional DV camera or HDV camera. The software captures video onto the computer's hard drive, where it can be edited and processed. The result can be recorded on MiniDV tape, converted into a format suitable for replaying on a PC, converted into a format suitable for uploading to a web site, or burning onto a DVD. The current version of MoviePlus X6 requires a minimum of an Intel Pentium 4 Hyper-Threading processor or AMD Athlon XP processor and 1 GB of RAM.

Serif CraftArtist

CraftArtist (formerly known as Serif Digital Scrapbook Artist) is a digital scrapbooking program for Microsoft Windows.

It has many standard vector graphics features, and also includes features designed specifically for digital scrapbooking such as intelligent photo frames, a cut-out studio, photo adjustments and realistic filters effects. It also includes a selection of high resolution photographic assets, and is capable of exporting 300 DPI images for print or upload to photo sharing websites.

The Loren Towle Estate is a historic estate at 785 Centre Street in Newton, Massachusetts, USA.

The estate's construction began in 1920 for real estate executive Loren D. Towle as a 35-room, Gothic-style English Revival mansion with formal gardens, terraces, tennis courts, and garage.  Design of the estate buildings was by Arthur W. Bowditch, and landscaping design was provided by the Olmsted Brothers firm.  Towle died in 1924, before the mansion was completed.  In December 1925 it became home to the Newton Country Day School, and in 1990 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Within theories of education, retroactive learning is a delay in understanding an experience, or review of learning experiences when resources become available.

Often, it is not possible to learn while an event is occurring because the agent lacks the specific information or resources that it needs to learn. For example, an agent in a realtime environment may not have time to apply an iterative learning algorithm while it is performing a task. However, when a resource like time becomes available, the agent can replay the events and learn from them. Episodic memory allows previous experiences to be relived or rehearsed once resources are available so it can be reanalyzed with new knowledge or additional experiences.

The Thayer House is a historic house at 17 Channing Street in Newton, Massachusetts, USA.  It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

Description
The -story wood-frame house was built c. 1860, and is an unusual combination of Carpenter Gothic and Second Empire styling.  The front facade has three steeply-pitched gables clad in flushboarding, and the gable windows are framed in scroll-sawn decorations.  The house corners have rounded corner pilasters, and the main entrance is framed by Ionic columns and topped by a low-pitch gable with more scroll-sawn woodwork.  A mansard-roofed addition extends from the rear of the house.

History

By 1869, the neighborhood around Channing Street was developed into house lots on land belonging to Phineas A Johnson, a cabinetmaker. Local Newton resident, developer, and businessman Joseph N. Bacon and Watertown resident Luke Forbes both bought and subdivided Johnson's land creating the neighborhood located on and around Channing Street. Until 1878, when it was incorporated as a city street, Channing Street was known as Linden Street and the neighborhood was built to serve bustling Newton Corner with its convenient rail transportation to Boston. With the exception of 34 Channing Street, an early 20th-century Colonial Revival building, the historic homes along Channing Street were all built within roughly a ten-year period between 1860 and 1870.

Historically, the structure is important for its contribution to the architectural history of Newton as a locally distinctive combination of historic architectural styles (Gothic Revival and Second Empire), as the residence of local merchant Stephen O. Thayer, and as a contributing element in the 19th century character of Channing Street. The property is also historically associated with the development of Newton Corner during the late 19th century as a desirable urban village residence in proximity to railroad transportation to Boston.

Berlin Embassy is a non-fiction book written by American diplomat William Russell (1915–2000) which was first published in late 1940. Russell, who worked at the American Embassy in Berlin, details his experiences of living and working in Nazi Germany between August 1939 and April 1940 during the early phases of the Second World War.

The work
The book describes William Richard Russell's experiences between August 31, 1939 to April 10, 1940, dealing with long queues of desperate people seeking emigrant visas, the outbreak of the Second World War, the German invasion of Poland and Phoney War, as well as touching on the beginning of the invasion of Norway.

Russell was a clerk on the consular staff of the American Embassy in Berlin. The book consequently reflects his personal experiences of life in Berlin during the early stages of the war through anecdotes, press cutting, rumours and jokes rather than covering the political and diplomatic aspects of his job in any great detail:  The bilingual Russell socialized extensively with random Germans in pubs and nightclubs, on trains while conducting business, in rural villages as well as in the capital.

Despite this professed objective, the final chapter is devoted to a study of the character of Adolf Hitler.

Main argument

The central argument which Russell attempts to communicate in his work is that, contrary to opinion in America and elsewhere, the majority of Germans were politically apathetic or even anti-Nazi, with only a small minority actually being overtly in favour of the status quo:

There are, perhaps, 2 million members of the Nazi party. That is not many in a nation of seventy million people.

However, he also argues that a large number of Germans (regardless of their political views) chose to side with the Nazis temporarily for the duration of the war:

For what exists in Germany today, I have ... a simple illustration:

...Imagine that Herbert Hoover were still president of the United States, and as unpopular as he was at the time he was defeated for the Presidency. Imagine that the United States had been forced into a war under his leadership. He would be supported by every man, woman and child...

Many people feel that way in Germany today. They will support Adolf Hitler until the war is won; as soon as it is over, they have the firm intention of getting rid of him.

Russell attempts to highlight the cynical view of many Germans towards the Nazi régime. In particular, he focuses on the popular views of key Nazi figures - including Hermann Göring ("When Goering appears on the movie screen...Berlin audiences usually snigger."), Rudolf Hess, Heinrich Himmler, Julius Streicher ("...has committed so many crimes and stolen so much money from the Party that even the Nazis could not cover up his crimes any longer") and Hans Kerrl ("...a gay old rascal frequently seen in Berlin dives until the wee hours of the morning"). Above all, Joseph Goebbels (whom Russell describes as "...the most hated man in Germany...") is seen to elicit the most hatred. "In three years spent in Germany," Russell wrote "I have never heard one kind word spoken on his behalf."

Jokes of the time are frequently inserted to summarise the contempt of many ordinary Germans to the Nazi leaders.

Other themes
Several factors of the everyday life of Germans during the period which Russell writes about extensively were shortages of food and clothing owing to rationing (even though the war had just begun), the shortage of home heating fuel, breakdowns and freezing conditions in train service, and the lack of proper information on current affairs, owing to censorship and propaganda in the German media. This led, in Russell's belief, to over-reliance on both frequently incorrect rumours  and the (officially prohibited) BBC German-language radio service.

The Celia Thaxter House is an historic house at 524 California Street in the village of Newtonville in Newton, Massachusetts. The Italianate house was built c. 1856 as the home of Levi Lincoln Thaxter and American poet and author Celia Thaxter.  The Thaxters lived here until 1880 when she moved to Kittery Point, Maine.  It was in the Newtonville house that Celia Thaxter wrote her early poetry, and where the Thaxters played host to high-profile members of Boston's literary community.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

The Sumner and Gibbs Streets Historic District is a residential historic district encompassing a cohesive collection of houses representing styles common in the Newton Centre area of Newton, Massachusetts during its first period of growth. It includes houses along Sumner Street, between Cotswold Terrace and Willow Street, and the adjacent house at 184 Gibbs Street. The houses were built between 1865 and 1899, and are predominantly in the Queen Anne and Colonial Revival styles. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

Description and history
Sumner Street is a residential street running north-south between Willow and Ward Streets in central Newton, just north of the main village of Newton Centre, one of 11 villages in Newton.  This district encompasses roughly the southern third of the street, as well as a single house west of Sumner on Gibbs Street, which bisects the district.  Development of this area was spurred by the improvement of rail service in Newton brought by the introduction of the Circuit Railroad in 1886, and further intensified by the construction of Commonwealth Avenue, crosses Sumner Street north of the district.

The district contains sixteen houses built between 1865 and 1899.  The oldest house in the district is 184 Gibbs Street, a high-quality example Second Empire architecture.  166 Sumner Street is an Italianate house built in 1870.  Six houses are Queen Anne in style, the most of any individual style.  There are three Colonial Revival houses, and one Shingle style house with Colonial Revival features.  There is one Georgian Revival house, and two that are Second Empire (the 1867 house at 139 Sumner Street joining 184 Gibbs Street in this category.)

John Considine (born 26 October 1964) is an Irish former hurler who played as a right corner-back for the Cork senior team.

Born in Glanmire, Cork, Considine first played competitive hurling during his schooling at Sullivan's Quay CBS. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of twenty-one when he first linked up with the Cork under-21 team. He joined the senior panel during the 1988 championship. Considine subsequently became a regular member of the starting fifteen and won one All-Ireland medal, one Munster medal and one National Hurling League medal.

At club level Considine played with Sarsfields.

Throughout his career Considine made 8 championship appearances. His retirement came following the conclusion of the 1993 championship.

In retirement from playing Considine became involved in team management and coaching. After being heavily involved in coaching at University College Cork, he later took charge as manager of the Cork minor, under-21 and senior teams.

Playing career

University

In 1987 Considine was at left wing-back on the University College Cork team that reached the final of the inert-varsities championship. Fierce rivals University College Dublin provided the opposition, however, a narrow 1-11 to 0-11 victory gave Considine a first Fitzgibbon Cup medal.

Considine was included on the University College Cork team once again in 1988. A convincing 1-14 to 1-3 defeat of University College Galway secured a remarkable eight successive title for UCC and a second successive Fitzgibbon Cup medal for Considine.

Nine-in-a-row proved beyond UCC, however, the team lined out in yet another decider in 1990. A 3-10 to 0-12 defeat of the Waterford Institute of Technology gave Considine a third Fitzgibbon Cup medal.

Considine won a fourth and final Fitzgibbon Cup medal in 1991 as UCC defeated University College Dublin by 1-14 to 1-6.

Club

Considine played his club hurling with his local Sarsfields club. He was part of the Sarsfields squad that, in 1989, qualified for the final of the county senior championship.  A high-scoring game ensued against Glen Rovers, however, at full-time Considine ended up on the defeated team.

Inter-county

Considine first came to prominence with Cork as an unused substitute with the under-21 team during the team's unsuccessful championship campaign in 1985.

Three years later in 1988 Considine was added to the Cork senior panel, however, he was dropped the following year.

Considine made his senior championship debut on 20 May 1990 in a 3-17 to 3-7 Munster quarter-final defeat of Kerry. He later won a Munster medal that year following a 4-16 to 2-14 defeat of Tipperary. The subsequent All-Ireland final on 2 September 1990 pitted Cork against Galway for the second time in four years. Galway were once again the red-hot favourites and justified this tag by going seven points ahead in the opening thirty-five minutes thanks to a masterful display by Joe Cooney. Cork fought back with an equally expert display by captain Tomás Mulcahy. The game was effectively decided on an incident which occurred midway through the second half when Cork goalkeeper Ger Cunningham blocked a point-blank shot from Martin Naughton with his nose. The umpires gave no 65-metre free, even though he clearly deflected it out wide. Cork went on to win a high-scoring and open game of hurling by 5–15 to 2–21. As well as winning an All-Ireland medal Considine was later presented with a first All-Star.

Cork surrendered their All-Ireland crown to Tipperary in 1991, while Considine played no part with the team the following year.

Considine won a National Hurling League medal in 1993 following a 3-11 to 1-12 defeat of Wexford. After a subsequent unsuccessful championship campaign he left the inert-county scene.

Coaching career

Considine was appointed caretaker manager of the Cork senior hurling team on 12 March 2009  He succeeded Gerald McCarthy and defeated Dónal O'Grady for the position.  In his first match as manager he beat Clare with a score of 2-14 to 0-16. In second and final game in charge his Cork side defeated Limerick 1-20 to 2-16. Considine leaves the post as the only Cork manager in history to record a 100% success rate.

Maida Hill Tunnel is a canal tunnel on the Regent's Canal in London, England. The two other tunnels on the Regent's Canal are Islington Tunnel and Eyre's Tunnel.

History
The Regent's Canal was authorised by an Act of Parliament in July 1812. The plans had been drawn up by James Morgan, working as an assistant to the architect John Nash. With some influence from Nash, Morgan secured the post of Engineer, Architect and Land Surveyor for the new company, and oversaw the construction of the canal. However, he had little experience of civil engineering, and so the company advertised for designs for the locks and tunnels. The tunnelling work was awarded to the contractor Daniel Pritchard, who was also responsible for the much longer Grand Union Canal tunnels at Husbands Bosworth and Crick, and went on to become a specialist tunnelling contractor.

The original plans for the canal did not include a tunnel at Maida Hill, but objections to the planned route resulted in one becoming necessary, and subsequent objections to the alignment of the tunnel by a Mr Portman resulted in the short Eyre's Tunnel also needing to be constructed. Work began in 1812, but was hindered when a spring was encountered. Damage caused by the incoming water resulted in casualties among the workmen, and subsequent delays. However, both of the tunnels were completed by 1816, enabling part of the canal to be opened in that year, as far as Camden. Spoil from the excavations was used to level land to the north of the canal, which became the third site of Lord's Cricket Ground. The canal had cut through part of the outfield of the second site.

The tunnel was built without a towpath, and boats were legged through it. In 1825, three men were working a boat through the tunnel when the boards on which they were lying slipped. One man was seriously injured, a second was crushed to death by the barge, and the body of the third was never found. The tunnel is regularly used by trip boats, with the first motor boat, Jasons Trip, starting operation in 1951. In 1953, Evelyn, operated by Lord St Davids, also worked through the tunnel. It was towed by a horse to the east of the tunnel, by a tractor to the west, and human powered through the tunnel. In the 1970s, Westminster City Council decided to build a cafe at the west end of the tunnel. Despite strong local opposition, a concrete and steel raft was constructed over the western portal, and the Cafe Laville was built on it.

Route
The tunnel lies on a  level section of canal. To the east are Camden Locks, the first three of twelve locks through which the canal descends  to Limehouse Basin, from which Limehouse Lock provides access to the Thames. After passing under the A5205 road bridge, there is a right-angled bend after the locks, with the stub of Cumberland Basin to the left. The route then follows the northern edge of Regent's Park, which houses London Zoo. There is a long wooded cutting, before the canal skirts a housing estate built on the site of the former Marylebone goods yard. It then passes through Eyre's Tunnel, which is often known as Lisson Grove Bridge, and into the eastern portal of Maida Hill Tunnel. The tunnel runs underneath Aberdeen Place on which stands the renowned Crocker's Folly Hotel, so called because it was reputed to have been built in anticipation of the arrival of the railway which went to Marylebone instead.  After that it passes beneath Edgware Road to emerge at the western portal with its restaurant above. The section between the tunnel mouth and Little Venice is tree-lined, with fine Regency houses on both sides. There is a junction with the Paddington Arm, leading to Paddington Basin, and the main line of the canal continues westwards to Old Oak Common, where Eurostar trains are stabled, and Wormwood Scrubs park and prison.

The canal through the tunnel is navigable by wide-beam boats, with a beam of , a draught of , a length of  and headroom of . The tunnel is  from Paddington Junction, and  from Hampstead Road Locks, a pair of locks which begin the fall to the Thames, and home to the Camden Canal Centre. There are a number of trip boats which operate on the section between Little Venice and Camden Locks, passing through the tunnel and calling at the zoo, and the tunnel is only wide enough for one way traffic. Boats are therefore required to give way if another boat is approaching in the opposite direction.

In 2016, the Canal & River Trust provisionally opened access to non-powerfed craft such as kayaks, packrafts and canoes.

Borde Hill Garden is a garden located  north of Haywards Heath, West Sussex in southern England. It is set in over  of garden, park and woodlands which has views across the Sussex High Weald.

Borde Hill Garden is planted in “living garden rooms”, each offering a different character and style. It is home to many rare shrubs: from rhododendrons, azaleas and magnolias to roses, as well as numerous trees including one of the largest collections of champion trees in a private property in Britain (82 specimens as of 2013).

History
The first record of the estate dates back to 1534. The Tudor Borde Hill house was originally constructed in 1598 by Stephen Borde. After a variety of ownerships, Borde Hill was acquired by Colonel Robert Stephenson Clarke in 1893, who was the first owner to plant the gardens and woodlands. A number of extensions were made to the garden and house, however it was not until 1965 that Borde Hill Garden became a registered charity and opened to the public, by Stephenson's son Sir Ralph Clarke.

The garden is listed on the register of parks and gardens as Grade II* importance by English Heritage.

Enterococcus gallinarum is a species of Enterococcus. E. gallinarum demonstrates an inherent, low-level resistance to vancomycin. Resistance is due to a chromosomal gene, vanC, which encodes for a terminal D-alanine-D-serine instead of the usual D-alanine-D-alanine in cell wall peptidoglycan precursor proteins. That is a separate mechanism than the vancomycin resistance seen in VRE isolates of E. faecium and E. faecalis which is mediated by vanA or vanB. This species is known to cause clusters of infection, although it considered very rare. It is the only other known enterococcal species besides E. faecium and E. faecalis known to cause outbreaks and spread in hospitals.

A study published in 2018 found that this infectious gut bacterium can translocate (spread) to other organs such as the lymph nodes, liver, and spleen, triggering an autoimmune reaction in humans and mice. E. gallinarum was found during three liver biopsies of individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus and autoimmune liver disease. The autoimmune reaction was found to be suppressed when an intramuscular vaccine or antibiotic was administered.

The bacterium can also cause meningitis, although rare and sepsis.

The antibiotics linezolid, daptomycin and gentamicin, levofloxacin, and penicillin G are effective against the bacteria, depending on the specific isolate.

Overview
Streptococcus ferus is a facultatively anaerobic, gram-positive species of the genus Streptococcus. The species is a member of the Viridans streptococci group  which are a large mixed-group of mostly alpha-hemolytic streptococci. The alpha-hemolytic bacteria are ones that exhibit a partial hemolysis with green coloration when grown on sheep blood agar (see image.)

Ecology
Streptococcus ferus was originally isolated from the oral cavity wild rats who were living in sugar cane fields and eating a high sucrose diet  The species name ferus, meaning wild, refers to their association with these animals. More recently the strain has also been isolated from the nasal and oral cavities of pigs. The species has not been identified in any other host organisms.

Morphology
Streptococcus ferus are gram positive lanceolate coccobacillus Non-motile and approximately 0.5 micrometers in diameter. They are non-sporulating and catalase-negative The majority of specimens test positive for the production of acetoin (Vogues-Proskauer reaction).  They occur singly, in pairs or in short chains.

Pathogenicity
Streptococcus ferus is commensal in wild rats and pigs and demonstrates a relatively weak cariogenic potential compared to other streptococcus species such as S. mutans S. ferus has not had any reported pathogenic instances in humans.

History
Streptococcus ferus was originally proposed as a species in 1977

Ingo
Sapphire is faced with her father's (Matthew Trewhella, who is coincidently related to the Matthew Trewhella associated with the Zennor mermaid) sudden disappearance when he left Sapphire's mother after an argument. All they found was his boat, the Peggy Gordan, capsized and with nothing in it. Many people had different theories about how her father disappeared, how he had run away with another woman, faked his own death or had died. Nevertheless, they had the funeral anyway, where Sapphire and Conor make a pact to never stop looking for their father.

A year later Sapphire follows Conor down to the cove after he has been missing for nearly a day. There she meets Faro, one of the mer, he is prideful and patriotic to his people and invites her to Ingo, an underwater world where the mysterious mer people dwell. At first she has to keep a hold of his hand to breathe, but after a while she can do it by herself. Time runs differently in Ingo and when she finally resurfaces she realizes she has been gone for two days when she sees Conor waiting up for her on the cliff having slept there for the night. Her mother was away so she didn't notice that Sapphire was missing, but after that disappearance Conor is against everything to do with Ingo.

Time goes by and Sapphire is affected by Ingo more and more; craving salt, hearing her name called by the sea and finding it hard to breathe once she resurfaces from the water. The only thing that can stop her from her yearning from Ingo is Granny Carne (a wizened old woman whom the village folk go to with their troubles). From Granny Carne that both Sapphire and Conor learn of their Mer blood.

By this time Sapphire's mother has acquired a boyfriend; Roger. Roger plans on taking a dive at the Bawns which is the sacred resting place of the dead in Ingo; Limina. Ingo will do everything to protect it. Sapphire and Conor go on a rescue mission to save Roger and Gray (Roger's diving partner) from the bull seals who protect Limina. Conor hears Limina's song, the song that is supposed to be heard when one is dying. Conor repeats it to the bull seals and they stop attacking Roger and Gray. Then Conor and Sapphire haul Roger and Gray into the boat with the help of Faro and Elvira, Conor's mer friend, and wait for them to recover.

The Tide Knot
Sapphire now lives in St Pirans with her mother, Conor and Roger. Conor adapts easily to the new city life whilst Sapphire is becoming more withdrawn and turning to Ingo. One evening she walks Sadie down to the beach and leaves her, going into Ingo alone to meet Faro. When she comes back she finds Sadie in a terrible state and skips school the next day to take him to Granny Carne to see if Granny Carne can do anything for him. She stays overnight. While she is staying at Granny Carne's house she hears her name whispered in the language of Ingo. She follows it and finds her father, now one of the mer, in a river who had traveled all the way just to warn her that the tide knot is loose.

Conor and Sapphire travel with Faro to meet his mentor, Saldowr. There Sapphire is whisked away from Faro and Conor by a rogue current into the deep with no knowledge with which way is up and which way is down. She is then brought back to lighter waters by a whale. There she meets up with Conor and Saldowr, but she cannot meet up with Faro because he is severely injured and rests in Saldowr's cave, a place where only the mer can entre. Conor inquires after his father and they learn that his father is married and has a child. Just before they leave they learn of the Tide Knot, which has become loose, and shortly after they arrive home it loosens completely; unleashing a terrible tidal wave that floods the town.

She finds her mother and they, with Rainbow (Sapphire's somewhat strange friend) hide away in the attic. When they are all asleep Sapphire jumps out of the window and finds Faro with Conor. The currents under the flooded town are strong, and Sapphire gets slammed against a wall. They call Elvira, a healer. Once Sapphire is healed, they swim to Saldowr, who looks old and weak. The tide knot is undone and something else has broken out of its cage, and shattered the pieces. Sapphire, Conor, Elvira and Faro all find and put together the knot, sealing the Tide Knot back into its place.

Sapphire and Conor go home to find it in tatters. They get to move back to their village and move back into their old house.

The Deep
After the devastation of the Tide Knot the Kraken awakens and it is said that only half mer and half humans can overcome the Kraken; a terrible monster who can only be put back to sleep if one boy and one girl be sacrificed for him.

Faro invites Sapphire to a mer assembly with Conor. Once there Conor and Sapphire make a deal that they will overcome the kraken if their father can have the choice to leave Ingo because they believe their father is there against his will. Evrys, the mer's spokesperson, is irritated with their proposal but agrees because Conor and Sapphire are the only ones who can save the mer.

Faro (because he's not all mer), Sapphire and Conor descend into the deep with the help of the whale. They face the Kraken who's a shape shifter and have a battle of wits. Sapphire finally puts him back to sleep using the rowan berries which Granny Carne had given her before she went down to face the kraken.  They all go back to tell the mer the good news.
Faro asks Sapphire to make the crossing of Ingo, a trip around the whole globe which the mer make when they come of age, with him. She agrees and asks if Conor can join them which Faro agrees with. Evrys is furious because it was only a mer tradition. Faro says that Elvira will come too and Sapphire is a little uneasy with Conor and Elvira together.

The Crossing of Ingo
Sapphire and Conor accept the call to the crossing of Ingo. They meet up with Faro who tells them that Evrys is adamant that they don't accept the call and that he has many followers among the mer who will cause trouble and stop them from making the crossing whether they’re killed or not . The future of air and Ingo depend on Sapphire's and Conor's success.

Sapphire's mother and Roger are in Australia for 3 months leaving them home alone with Rainbow and her brother checking up on them every so often. With their parents in Australia Conor and Sapphire have just enough time to make the crossing.

They hear the call a couple of weeks after their parents leave and know what it is and know they must answer. One day, when they come back home after an outing they find seagulls nesting on their roof they believe the seagulls are sent by Evrys. Later, the seagulls attack Sadie, sapphire's dog. Sapphire takes the dog to Granny Carne who heals him and promises to look after him while they’re in Ingo.

They join up with Faro after a little trouble getting past the cove which Evrys and his followers had turned into a Porth Cas keeping them out. The three then go to the assembly chambers and hide from the Evrys followers till they are either accepted or rejected to make the crossing by the mer. They are all accepted, but when Sapphire and Conor went up their father kept silent in rejection. They meet again with Faro and Elvira outside deciding on the best plan of action so they would not be stopped by Evrys' followers.

They’re attacked by Évrys's sharks and saved by dolphins. Conor, Elvira, Sapphire and Faro decide to head North instead of South (the mers traditional route).

Conor and Sapphire meet their father who explains his rejection as he wanted them to be safe. He tries to come with them but when denied he wishes them luck.

So they head South taking the currents until they’re under the ice of the north where they separate; Conor with Elvira and Sapphire with Faro. Sapphire meets her Atka, a strange mer like creature who dwells on the ice. Her Atka wants to touch her but she doesn't let her because she has a bad feeling about what her Atka will do to her.
Sapphire and Faro finally meet up with Conor and Elvira they head South again as they travel around the world. Elvira grows desperate to go back to the North and Sapphire thinks it's something to do with the Atka. Sapphire convinces Elvira to stay with them until the end of the journey. Elvira agrees.

They meet a strange group of mer who have short hair and keep to kelp forests. They’ve never seen humans with mer in them before nor have they seen Faro's type of mer before. After the brief strange encounter they keep on going.

Sapphire calls dolphins to take them part of the way of the journey. They stop briefly where Sapphire meets her friend the Whale's daughter who has had a baby. They take the flight of the dolphins all the way back to the lost islands (islands buried underwater with huge settlements still standing). They’re attacked by Evrys and his followers. Sapphire's father comes and joins them and is killed in battle. Sapphire and Conor make the complete circle and see their father returned to Limina. They all head home.

Characters
Sapphire Trewhella
Known as 'Sapphy', the narrator of the books, a young girl with a temper and a connection to the sea. She has long hair, which is similar to the colour of Faro's. She has a Labrador puppy named Sadie and a lovely singing voice. Granny Carne has told her that she is in more danger than Conor of being pulled into Ingo, and although Faro has hinted at it, she refuses to believe that she may become Mer.  She always wears the deublek that Faro made her.

Conor Trewhella
Sapphire's older brother, who has a levelheaded and calm approach to problems to balance Sapphy's hot-tempered one. Since he and Elvira may or may not be in love, Sapphire worries that he may abandon the human world completely and become Mer, as their father did. Although he does not sing often, it is revealed that he also has a strong singing voice. At the beginning of the series he appears to have difficulty going between Ingo and the Earth, and that he has a stronger connection to Earth. At the end of the Deep, Sapphire is terrified to learn that he has started to swim as if he has a tail. It is also revealed that he can talk to land animals, while Sapphire cannot.

Faro
A Mer boy who is the first to show Sapphy the world of Ingo. He is described as having dark hair, brown eyes, perfectly white teeth, and suntanned skin. He is offended when Sapphire calls him a mermaid ("do you go to school with a lot of nice maids?"). Sapphire compares his tail to that of a seal, however on the covers of the novels it looks as if he has a seal's tail with a whale's fins. He is intensely proud of being Mer, however he later learns that he also has human blood in him. He always hints (or hopes) that Sapphire may become Mer, and while he calls her his sister, it is unknown whether he feels a romantic or brotherly love towards her. He is also Saldowr's apprentice and protects him with his heart and soul. Always wears a matching deublek to Sapphire's.  He likes to tease, and calls Sapphire "Little Sister".

Elvira
A mer girl that Conor has a crush on, and Faro's sister.  She is said to have curly black hair, and is beautiful. Elvira is a healer in training.

Mathew Trewhella
Father of Conor and Sapphire. Disappeared at sea when Sapphy was ten and Conor was twelve. He has since remarried, and is now a full Mer with a young son.

Jennie Trewhella
Sapphire and Conor's mother. Has a fear of the sea and worries about her children getting so close to it. She is in a relationship with Roger.

Granny Carne
A wise old woman full of Earth magic who makes sure Sapphire and Conor don't get so engrossed in Ingo they forget the Air. Saldowr is her Mer counterpart in role.

Saldowr
The Ingo equivalent to Granny Carne. Believes Ingo and Air need to live peacefully side by side. He is Faro's mentor and guardian of the tide knot.

Roger
Jennie's new boyfriend. A diver, originally from Australia. Disliked by Sapphire at first, but she grows to realise and accept that he is a good person and good for her mother.

Sadie
Sapphire's golden retriever which she receives in the second book. In the fourth book Sadie is Sapphire's only link to 'air'.

Rainbow
Sapphires strange friend who she meets in the second book.

Evrys
A cruel, arrogant leader who tries to take control of the mer.

Proactive learning is a generalization of active learning designed to relax unrealistic assumptions and thereby reach practical applications.

"Active learning seeks to select the most informative unlabeled instances and ask an omniscient oracle for their labels, so as to retrain a learning algorithm maximizing accuracy. However, the oracle is assumed to be infallible (never wrong), indefatigable (always answers), individual (only one oracle), and insensitive to costs (always free or always charges the same)."

"In real life, it is possible and more general to have multiple sources of information with differing reliabilities or areas of expertise. Active learning also assumes that the single oracle is perfect, always providing a correct answer when requested. In reality, though, an "oracle" (if we generalize the term to mean any source of expert information) may be incorrect (fallible)
with a probability that should be a function of the difficulty of the question. Moreover, an oracle may be reluctant – it may refuse to answer if it is too uncertain or too busy. Finally, active learning presumes the oracle is either free or charges uniform cost in label elicitation.
Such an assumption is naive since cost is likely to be regulated by difficulty (amount of work required to formulate an answer) or other factors."

Proactive learning relaxes all four of these assumptions, relying on a decision-theoretic approach to jointly select the optimal oracle and instance, by casting the problem as a utility optimization problem subject to a budget constraint.

Lynwood is a city in Los Angeles County, California, United States. At the 2010 census, the city had a total population of 69,772, down from 69,845 at the 2000 census. Lynwood is located near South Gate and Compton in the central portion of the Los Angeles Basin.

After Lugo received these tracts of land (29,514 acres), Lugo named the area Rancho San Antonio, possibly after birthplace at La Misión San Antonio de Padua, in Jolon, California. These tracts of land make up the bordering cities of Bell, Bell Gardens, Commerce, Cudahy, Huntington Park, Lynwood, Maywood, Montebello, South Gate, Vernon, and Walnut Park today.

Dictionnaire Bouillet () is the informal title of the Dictionnaire universel d'histoire et de géographie ("Universal Dictionary of History and Geography"), a French reference work in the public domain. The first edition was published in 1842; the 34th and final edition was published in 1914.
The original authors were Marie-Nicolas Bouillet (d. 1865) and Alexis Chassang (1827–78).

Neutrality of later editions
Editions after 1852 were amended, probably clandestinely and by the typographers rather than the authors, to make certain articles less offensive to Christian sensibilities. For example, for Cardinal Ximenes, the original Il était fanatique et cruel ("He was fanatical and cruel") was changed to read Il était sévère, mais juste ("He was tough but fair").  References to sales of religious indulgences were deleted entirely.

The neutrality of editions after 1842 is therefore open to question when the work touches on Christian themes.

Rothia dentocariosa is a species of Gram-positive, round- to rod-shaped bacteria that is part of the normal community of microbes residing in the mouth and respiratory tract.

First isolated from dental caries, Rothia dentocariosa is largely benign, but does very rarely cause disease. The most common Rothia infection is endocarditis, typically in people with underlying heart valve disorders. Literature case reports show other tissues that are rarely infected include the peritoneum, tonsils, lung, cornea, inner layers of the eye (Endophthalmitis) and brain and intercranial tissues.
It is found more abundantly in the dental plaque of individuals with healthy oral cavities and can often be reduced in abundance in periodontal disease. One case reports on a fatal Rothia dentocariosa infection of a fetus in utero. Another reports the bacterium was responsible for septic arthritis in the knee of a person treated with etanercept for rheumatoid arthritis. Like other Rothia infections reported in the literature, once the cause of infection was identified, this responded fully to treatment with antibiotics. Rothia infections may be treated with penicillins, erythromycin,  cefazolin, rifampin, aminoglycoside, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.

Variable or pleomorphic in shape and similar to Actinomyces and Nocardia, Rothia was only defined as a genus in 1967. Rothia dentocariosa, like several other species of oral bacteria, is able to reduce nitrate to nitrite, and one study found it in 3% of isolates of nitrate-reducing bacteria from the mouth.

Azorhizobium caulinodans is a species of bacteria that forms a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with plants of the genus Sesbania. The symbiotic relationship between Sesbania rostrata and A. caulinodans lead to nitrogen fixing nodules in S. rostrata. Bacterial chemotaxis plays an important role in establishing this symbiotic relationship.

Azorhizobium caulinodans is a genome and it contains chemotaxis gene clusters that are unique. It has five chemotaxis genes which are: cheW(1), cheW, cheA, cheR, and cheB. Azorhizobium caulinodans controls the movements of flagella, and the chemotaxis signaling path in Azorhizobium caulinodans helps with regulating biofilm formation.

Frateuria aurantia is a species of bacteria. It is named after the Belgian microbiologist Joseph Frateur. The cells are mostly straight rods. Frateuria aurantia was isolated from the plant Lilium auratum and from the fruit of the raspberry Rubus parvifolius. It is a potassium solubilizing bacteria. In certain plants like tobacco, Frateuria aurantia could increase crop yield without using so much chemical fertilizer in soil that is nutrient deficient. In this type of soil the bacteria helped tobacco in absorbing potassium, causing an 39% increase of potassium found in the leaf. This increase in the nutrient allows for more plant growth and yield.
