James G. Carter
short description
James Gordon Carter (1795–1845), born James Carter, Jr. in Leominster, Massachusetts, was a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives and an education reformer. He was educated at Groton Academy and Harvard College.James Carter: Champion of the Normal School Movement He wrote Influence of an Early Education in 1826 (Essays Upon Popular Education), and in 1837, as House Chairman of the Committee on Education, contributed to the establishment of the Massachusetts Board of Education, the first state board of education in the United States. This was an important stepping stone in the path to government funded schooling. To the disappointment of many of Carter's supporters, who felt he deserved the honor, Horace Mann was appointed the board's first secretary.Martin, George H. (1915).

thumb|400px|Hamilton Harbour Queen, Pier 8 Hughson Street is a Lower City collector road in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. It starts at Charlton Avenue East at St. Joseph's hospital and runs north to Haymarket Street in the downtown where it's cut off by the Hamilton GO Transit station. Up to this point it is a two-way street. It then starts up again north of the station on Hunter Street East, where it then becomes a one-way street going north just past Barton Street East to Murray Street where it's cut off again by a parking lot for LIUNA Station. It then starts up again one block north past the CN railway tracks on Strachan Street and from this point onwards becomes a two-way street again that extends to the city's North End to the waterfront on Guise Street West, the site of the Canada Marine Discovery Centre and Pier 9.

History
History thumb|Pier 8, Hamilton Waterfront Trail, Art Sculpture thumb|Pier 8, Hamilton Waterfront Trail, Restaurant Hughson Street was named after Nathaniel Hughson (1755–1837), a farmer and hotel owner. Hughson was a Loyalist who moved to Canada following the American Revolution, one of the city founders. Other streets in the city were named after his family members: James Street (son), Rebecca Street (wife) and Catharine Street (daughter). The Sir John A. Macdonald Statue at Gore Park arrived in Hamilton from London, England on 30 October 1893. Official dedication of the statue took place 1 November 1893. Originally, the statue was located at the intersection of King and Hughson Streets and pointed West. Prime Minister Sir John Thompson was in attendance. Alexander Aitchison, a local Hamilton Fire Chief, died of injuries he sustained from crashing into the base of the statue with his horse and buggy and because of it, the statue was then relocated to Gore Park near King and John Streets only this time the statue instead of pointing West, now points East. Canadian Canners Ltd. (1903–1986) used to be on 44 Hughson Street South across the street from the County Courthouse. Today it is the site of a parking lot. In 1996, The refurbished TH&B Station became the GO Station, as well as the city's bus terminal.

Waterfront Trolley
Waterfront Trolley The Hamilton Waterfront Trolley is a narrated tour along the 12 kilometre Hamilton Waterfront Trail. The main stop and departure spot is at the Hamilton Waterfront SCOOPS Ice Cream parlour, which provides the famous Stoney Creek Dairy Ice Cream. There are a dozen stops along the way between Princess Point at the western-end of the route to the eastern-end, the site of HMCS Haida. Also near this eastern-end route is the site of the Hamiltonian Tour Boat, which is a 12-passenger tour boat that offers a leisurely guided tour of Hamilton harbour with the captain providing interesting stories and history of one of North America's most noteworthy harbours. In addition to this there is also the Hamilton Harbour Queen Cruises which is another ship that offers 3-hour tour of the harbour along with Lunch, Dinner or other special events like Dance parties. This Harbour Queen Cruise was also the 2005 winner of the Hamilton Tourism Awards for "best tourism idea." It has a passenger capacity of 200.

The Happy End Problem
For
The Happy End Problem (Music for Dance Volume 5) is a studio album by English guitarist, composer and improvisor Fred Frith, and is the fifth of a series of Music for Dance albums he made. It comprises two suites composed in 2003 by Frith "for flute, bassoon, gu zheng, percussion, violin and electronics" and was recorded in 2003 and 2004.
The Happy End Problem
Background
Background The two suites on the album, "Imitation" and "The Happy End Problem" were composed by Frith for small ensembles of six and seven musicians. They were originally commissioned in 2003 by choreographer Amanda Miller for two dances for her The Pretty Ugly Dance Company. Both suites premiered at the Stadttheater in Freiburg, Germany, "The Happy End Problem" in May 2003 and "Imitation" in April 2004. In "The Happy End Problem" Frith drew on elements from Igor Stravinsky's 1910 ballet, Firebird Suite. "Imitation" focused on Oriental elements and played on the Western world's perception of Japan. At the time, the shakuhachi player, Kikutsubo Day was a student of Frith's at Mills College in the United States, and he constructed "Imitation" around her playing.
The Happy End Problem
Reception
Reception A reviewer at Sea of Tranquility summed up the album with the following comment: "Overall two highly accomplished and fascinating pieces of music, more perhaps for the classical enthusiast than the progger." In a review for AllMusic, François Couture wrote: "Whether you prefer the calm of 'Imitation' or the more disquieting overtones of 'The Happy End Problem,' both pieces fare very well without their choreographed component." John Kelman of All About Jazz commented: "The Happy End Problem... is a fine summation of Frith's career to date: enigmatic beauty juxtaposed with near-minimalist tendencies; occasional passages of jagged but strangely appealing edges and unapologetic free play blending with cued compositional sections; and a confluence of cultural references that are unmistakable, even as they join together for a new, unified whole." Writing for Paris Transatlantic, Massimo Ricci stated that "the music benefits enormously from the stunning performances of all the players involved," and, regarding the final track, remarked: "My soul undergoes a meltdown about 15 minutes into the track, when Wu Fei's delicate gu zheng figures remind us of the frailty of purpose amidst the often overwhelming forces of life... one of the most touching sections of... an instant classic."

Proto-Indo-European root
Short description
The roots of the reconstructed Proto-Indo-European language (PIE) are basic parts of words to carry a lexical meaning, so-called morphemes. PIE roots usually have verbal meaning like "to eat" or "to run". Roots never occurred alone in the language. Complete inflected verbs, nouns, and adjectives were formed by adding further morphemes to a root and potentially changing the root's vowel in a process called ablaut. A root consists of a central vowel that is preceded and followed by at least one consonant each. A number of rules have been determined to specify which consonants can occur together, and in which order. The modern understanding of these rules is that the consonants with the highest sonority () are nearest to the vowel, and the ones with the lowest sonority such as plosives are furthest away. There are some exceptions to these rules such as thorn clusters. Sometimes new roots were created in PIE or its early descendants by various processes such as root extensions (adding a sound to the end of an existing root) or metathesis.
Proto-Indo-European root
Word formation
Word formation Typically, a root plus a suffix forms a stem, and adding an ending forms a word. For example, 'he bears' can be split into the root 'to bear', the suffix which governs the imperfective aspect, and the ending , which governs the present tense, third-person singular. The suffix is sometimes missing, which has been interpreted as a zero suffix. Words with zero suffix are termed root verbs and root nouns. An example is '[I] am'. Beyond this basic structure, there is the nasal infix which functions as a present tense marker, and reduplication, a prefix with a number of grammatical and derivational functions.
Proto-Indo-European root
Finite verbs
Finite verbs Verbal suffixes, including the zero suffix, convey grammatical information about tense and aspect, two grammatical categories that are not clearly distinguished. Imperfective (present, durative) and perfective aspect (aorist, punctual) are universally recognised, while some of the other aspects remain controversial. Two of the four moods, the subjunctive and the optative, are also formed with suffixes, which sometimes results in forms with two consecutive suffixes: > 'he would bear', with the first being the present tense marker, and the second the subjunctive marker. Reduplication can mark the present and the perfect. Verbal endings convey information about grammatical person, number and voice. The imperative mood has its own set of endings.
Proto-Indo-European root
Nouns and adjectives
Nouns and adjectives Nouns usually derive from roots or verb stems by suffixation or by other means. (See the morphology of the Proto-Indo-European noun for some examples.) This can hold even for roots that are often translated as nouns: , for example, can mean 'to tread' or 'foot', depending on the ablaut grade and ending. Some noun stems like 'lamb', however, do not derive from known verbal roots. In any case, the meaning of a noun is given by its stem, whether this is composed of a root plus a suffix or not. This leaves the ending, which conveys case and number. Adjectives are also derived by suffixation of (usually verbal) roots. An example is 'begotten, produced' from the root 'to beget, to produce'. The endings are the same as with nouns.
Proto-Indo-European root
Infinitives and participles
Infinitives and participles Infinitives are verbal nouns and, just like other nouns, are formed with suffixes. It is not clear whether any of the infinitive suffixes reconstructed from the daughter languages (, , , among others) was actually used to express an infinitive in PIE. Participles are verbal adjectives formed with the suffixes (active imperfective and aorist participle), (perfect participle) and or (mediopassive participle), among others.
Proto-Indo-European root
Shape of a root
Shape of a root In its base form, a PIE root consists of a single vowel, preceded and followed by consonants. Except for a very few cases, the root is fully characterized by its consonants, while the vowel may change in accordance with inflection or word derivation. Thus, the root can also appear as , with a long vowel as or , or even unsyllabic as , in different grammatical contexts. This process is called ablaut, and the different forms are called ablaut grades. The five ablaut grades are the e-grade, o-grade, lengthened e- and o-grades, and the zero-grade that lacks a vowel. In linguistic works, is used to stand in for the various ablaut grades that the vowel may appear in. Some reconstructions also include roots with as the vowel, but the existence of as a distinct vowel is disputed; see Indo-European ablaut: a-grade. The vowel is flanked on both sides by one or more consonants; the preceding consonants are the onset, the following ones are the coda. The onset and coda must contain at least one consonant; a root may not begin or end with the ablaut vowel. Consequently, the simplest roots have an onset and coda consisting of one consonant each. Such simple roots are common; examples are: 'to give', 'to bear', 'to put', 'to run', 'to eat', 'sharp', 'to tread', 'to sit', and 'to clothe'. Roots can also have a more complex onset and coda, consisting of a consonant cluster (multiple consonants). These include: 'to breathe', 'red', 'to plough', 'straight', 'to bind', 'to freeze', 'to flow', 'to sleep', and 'to moisten'. The maximum number of consonants seems to be five, as in 'to twine'. Early PIE scholars reconstructed a number of roots beginning or ending with a vowel. The latter type always had a long vowel ( 'to put', 'to grow', 'to give'), while this restriction did not hold for vowel-initial roots ( 'to eat', 'to drive', 'to smell'). Laryngeal theory can explain this behaviour by reconstructing a laryngeal following the vowel (, , , resulting in a long vowel) or preceding it (, , , resulting in a short vowel). These reconstructions obey the mentioned rules.
Proto-Indo-European root
Sonority hierarchy
Sonority hierarchy When the onset or coda of a root contains a consonant cluster, the consonants in this cluster must be ordered according to their sonority. The vowel constitutes a sonority peak, and the sonority must progressively rise in the onset and progressively fall in the coda. PIE roots distinguish three main classes of consonants, arranged from high to low sonority: Non-labial sonorants , denoted collectively as . Labial sonorants , denoted collectively as . Obstruents, denoted collectively as . These include three subgroups: Plosives (voiceless , voiced , and aspirated ), denoted collectively as . Sibilant . Laryngeals , denoted collectively as . The following rules apply: A consonant closer to the main vowel must have a higher sonority than the consonant further away. Thus, consonants in the onset must follow the order , and the reverse in the coda, giving as the full root shape. Roots with a different order of sonority, like * or *, are not allowed. Only one member of each sonority class may appear in the onset or coda. Thus, roots like *, * or * are not allowed. Laryngeals can also occur in the coda before a sonorant, as in 'small'.
Proto-Indo-European root
Obstruent clusters
Obstruent clusters The obstruent slot of an onset or coda may consist of multiple obstruents itself. Here, too, only one member of each subgroup of obstruents may appear in the cluster; a cluster may not contain multiple laryngeals or plosives. The rules for the ordering within a cluster of obstruents are somewhat different, and do not fit into the general sonority hierarchy: Only voiceless plosives occur when preceded by in the onset. A laryngeal may appear before or after any obstruent other than another laryngeal. Examples are 'to grab', 'to fly', 'to dry', 'to pour, rain', 'to awake', and 'to be silent'. In several roots, a phenomenon called s-mobile occurs, where some descendants include a prepended while other forms lack it. There does not appear to be any particular pattern; sometimes forms with and without it even occur side by side in the same language.
Proto-Indo-European root
Further restrictions
Further restrictions PIE abided by the general cross-linguistic constraint of similar place avoidance against the co-occurrence of two similar consonants in a word root. In particular, no examples are known of roots containing two plain voiced plosives (*) or two glides (*). A few examples of roots with two fricatives or two nasals ( 'to burn', 'to give, to take', etc.) can be reconstructed, but they were rare as well. An exception, however, were the voiced aspirated and voiceless plosives, which relatively commonly co-occurred (e.g. 'to burn', 'to fly'). In particular, roots with two voiced aspirates were more than twice as common than could be expected to occur by chance. An additional constraint prohibited roots containing both a voiced aspirated and a voiceless plosive (*), unless the latter occurs in a word-initial cluster after an (e.g. 'to stiffen'). Taken together with the abundance of -type roots, it has been proposed that this distribution results from a limited process of voice assimilation in pre-PIE, where a voiceless stop was assimilated to a voiced aspirate, if another one followed or preceded within a root.
Proto-Indo-European root
Exceptions
Exceptions Thorn clusters are sequences of a dental () plus a velar plosive ( etc.). Their role in PIE phonotactics is unknown. Roots like "to perish" apparently violate the phonotactical rules, but are quite common. Some roots cannot be reconstructed with an ablauting , an example being 'to grow, to become'. Such roots can be seen as generalized zero grades of unattested forms like *, and thus follow the phonotactical rules. Some roots like 'to sneeze' or 'to duck' do not appear to follow these rules. This might be due to incomplete understanding of PIE phonotactics or to wrong reconstructions. , for example, might not have existed in PIE at all, if the Indo-European words usually traced back to it are onomatopoeias.
Proto-Indo-European root
Lexical meaning
Lexical meaning The meaning of a reconstructed root is conventionally that of a verb; the terms root and verbal root are almost synonymous in PIE grammar. This is because, apart from a limited number of so-called root nouns, PIE roots overwhelmingly participate in verbal inflection through well-established morphological and phonological mechanisms. Their meanings are not always directly reconstructible, due to semantic shifts that led to discrepancies in the meanings of reflexes in the attested daughter languages. Many nouns and adjectives are derived from verbal roots via suffixes and ablaut. Nevertheless, some roots did exist that did not have a primary verbal derivation. Apart from the aforementioned root nouns, the most important of these were the so-called Caland roots, which had adjectival meaning. Such roots generally formed proterokinetic adjectives with the suffix , thematic adjectives in and compounding stems in . They included at least 'red', 'white', 'deep' and 'heavy'. Verbal roots were inherently either imperfective or perfective. To form a verb from the root's own aspect, verb endings were attached directly to the root, either with or without a thematic vowel. The other aspect, if it were needed, would then be a "characterised" stem, as detailed in Proto-Indo-European verb. The characterised imperfective stems are often different in different descendants, but with no association between certain forms and the various branches of Indo-European, which suggests that a number of aspects fell together before PIE split up.
Proto-Indo-European root
Creation of new roots
Creation of new roots Roots were occasionally created anew within PIE or its early descendants. A variety of methods have been observed.
Proto-Indo-European root
Root extensions
Root extensions Root extensions are additions of one or two sounds, often plosives, to the end of a root. These extensions do not seem to change the meaning of a root, and often lead to variant root forms across different descendants. The source and function of these extensions is not known. For 'to push, hit, thrust', we can reconstruct: > Ancient Greek () 'hammer', Russian () and () 'knock' and 'to knock' > English stoke (Germanic k goes back to PIE .) > Vedic 'beats'
Proto-Indo-European root
Sonorant metathesis
Sonorant metathesis When the root contains a sonorant, the zero grade is ambiguous as to whether the sonorant should be placed before the ablaut vowel or after it. Speakers occasionally analysed such roots the "wrong" way, and this has led to some roots being created from existing ones by swapping the position of the sonorant. An example of such a pair of roots, both meaning 'to increase, to enlarge': > Gothic 'to grow', Ancient Greek () 'to increase'. > Gothic 'to increase, to grow', Latin 'to increase', Lithuanian 'to grow'. Another example concerns the root 'sky', which formed a vṛddhi derivative in this way: > Ancient Greek (), Latin 'day', Sanskrit 'sky, day'. > Latin 'divine', Old Prussian , Sanskrit 'deity'.
Proto-Indo-European root
Back-formations
Back-formations Sometimes, commonly used words became the template for a new root that was back-formed from the word, different from the root from which the word was originally formed. For example, the ablauting noun 'lifetime' was formed as a u-stem derivative of the root . The oblique stem alternant was then reinterpreted as the e-grade of a new root, which formed a new neuter s-stem , a formation which is only created from roots.

Historical origins
Historical origins The Congs are originally of Xiongnu origin. They trace their ancestry to King Xiutu of the Xiongnu. In 121 BC, Xiongnu King Hunxie killed King Xiutu when Xiutu refused to surrender to the Chinese with Hunxie. The fourteen-year-old Crown Prince Midi was taken to China and raised as a stable hand. One day, when Emperor Wu of Han was inspecting the horses with his wives, all the servants were mesmerized by the royal entourage, except for Midi. Emperor Wu of Han took favor of the prince and granted him the Chinese surname Jin, meaning gold, because the prince used to make sacrifices with golden statues as a part of the Xiongnu rituals. Jin Midi and his descendants later rose to prominent positions in the Han court. However, due to dynastic changes, the descendants of Jin Midi were persecuted for their royalist ties to the Han Dynasty. They escaped and after over forty years of wandering, they eventually arrived at Cong Hill in Buye (modern day Wendeng District, Weihai, Shandong Province), and changed their surname to Cong.

History
History 160px|thumb|left|Logo of Henbury School. Henbury School was a community school that was established in 1956 as one of the first purpose-built comprehensive schools in the country. It was completely rebuilt under a £17.3 million private finance initiative in 2005 where a financial agreement was made in April 2004 between Bristol City Council and Bristol Schools Ltd; a company set up by HBG Construction Ltd to oversee the construction and management of the school for 26 years, including three other schools that were also being rebuilt, after which it will become the property of the local education authority. The features of the new building include a sports hall, all-weather pitch, swimming pool, fitness suite, dance studio and coffee bar. It was used as a filming location for the Roundview College in the television series Skins and its American-style yellow school bus service was discontinued by Bristol City Council after December 2005 following a two-year pilot, due to it not being cost effective and students were already using sustainable transport. The service was launched in June 2003 as a joint initiative between the council and FirstGroup with an aim to reduce traffic congestion and improve child safety. thumb|left|Image of the rebuilt Henbury School. It has been involved in the Rugby Football Union's All Schools programme since 2012 and is linked with Clifton Rugby Football Club. England announced their 2019 Rugby World Cup squad at the school on 12 August 2019, and its students who were involved in rugby programmes and Clifton took part in rugby sessions with the players and coaches. It converted to an academy in June 2012. It was rated 'inadequate' by Ofsted following its inspection in November 2018 and the governing body subsequently began looking into the future of the school and evaluating its options. It agreed unanimously that it believed the best way forward was to join the Greenshaw Learning Trust and was confirmed in March 2019 following consultation with parents and other stakeholders. The trust had also been providing support to the school since the start of the year and Katherine Brown was appointed as the new headteacher from September 2019. It joined the trust and renamed to Blaise High School in September 2019 with a new logo and uniform as part of its "journey of improvement to ensure it provides the best possible learning environment for all of its students". The name was selected after receiving the highest number of preferences in a survey and reflects its place in the local community with it being close to the Blaise Castle Estate. The new logo retains the school colours of green and black with a castle design representing Blaise Castle on a traditional heraldic badge shape. The new uniform was devised in discussion with the school community and subsidised by the trust.

Biography
Joan Glass
Youth
Youth Glass was born in Orpington, Kent. She was the oldest of three daughters born to John Pomeroy Glass and Edith Mary Muirhead. Her father, was a senior partner and later chairman of James Templeton & Co, then one of the leading makers of carpets in Britain.

Joan Glass
Career
Career During the war Glass joined the Women's Royal Naval Service and worked in military censorship. After her marriage, she became known as Joan Clifford-Smith but continued to sign her work under her maiden name (Joan Glass). She is best known for her textile designs and one of her carpet designs became one of the biggest selling commercial carpets available in Britain during the 1950s and 60s. In 1952 she moved to Buck’s House in Great Bardfield, Essex. While in Great Bardfield, Glass and her husband became friendly with the village art community known as the Great Bardfield Artists. They organised a series of large open house exhibitions during the 1950s, which attracted thousands of visitors. Glass exhibited textiles and pictures at all these shows. Known for her fine sense of colour her textiles and paintings were mainly semi-abstract in design. Some of her work is included in the collection of the Fry Art Gallery in Saffron Walden, Essex. The Bardfield art community fragmented in the early 1960s and Glass and her family (which now included four sons) briefly moved to London before relocating to (15th century) Little Baddow Hall, near Chelmsford, Essex. During this time the artist’s output was restricted to making and decorating ceramics, Following the example of the earlier Bardfield summer exhibitions, Glass established in 1971 a series of large summer art festivals at her Essex home. These were very popular with the local art community and in 1974 she converted her house and established the Little Baddow Hall Arts Centre. Musicians and artists attracted to the centre included Howard Shelly, the Medici Quartet, John Miller and Andy Warhol, as well as prominent local artists Geoffrey Burnand, John Doubleday and Humphrey Spender. According to her obituary, the Arts Centre’s ‘enormous popularity was due in no part to Joan’s own stamp of style and sophistication, combined with a welcoming lack of pretension.' Despite its popularity with the mid Essex art community, the arts centre closed in 1979 and in 1990 she moved to a smaller house in Little Baddow.
Joan Glass

The real notability of the song is predicated on the fact that it will be performed (NB: "performed" is generally held to be enough where ESC entries are concerned) at the final in Helsinki in May, so even if consensus is that it hasn't reached notability by winning the Spanish pre-selection, it'll be notable in a couple of months. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 01:12, 8 March 2007 (UTC) As a further point, the Spanish ESC pre-selection is organised separately for the song and the performer (for some reason), so the song can legitimately be described as a winner of something. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 21:44, 9 March 2007 (UTC) Keep due to notability after it became the winning ong in the spanish national selection to ESC 2007.
