# Divya Mehra

**Divya Mehra** (born 1981) is a Canadian artist from Winnipeg, Manitoba. Mehra was awarded the 2019 Wanda Koop Research Fund. She received the Sobey Art Award, presented annually by the National Gallery of Canada, in 2022.

## Early life and education

Mehra was born Winnipeg, Canada, the second youngest of four children. She received her BFA (Honours) in Visual Arts from the University of Manitoba School of Art in Winnipeg in 2005 and her MFA in Visual Arts from Columbia University School of the Arts in New York City in 2008.

## Work

Mehra works in a multitude of forms, including sculpture, print, drawing, artist books, installation, advertising, performance, video and film. She often uses humour as an entry to her work. By pairing research and popular culture — including comics and social media — with her experience as an artist within the Indian diaspora, she creates works meant to be provocative yet humorous.

## Selected projects

Mehra is known in part for her text-based works. One of her first of such works, *Currently Fashionable*, was created in 2009 and shown as a part of her exhibition, *You have to tell them, I'm not a Racist* first presented in 2012 at La Maison des artistes visuels francophones, in St. Boniface, Manitoba, and again in 2017 at Georgia Scherman Projects in Toronto. The text works appear in English, Hindi and French.

In 2012 Mehra was one of ten artists commissioned by MTV, MoMA PS1, and Creative Time to reimagine *Art Breaks* — a video series on MTV in the 1980s that first showcased video work by Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol. Art Breaks 2012 featured videos by Sema Bekirovic, Cody Critcheloe, Andrew Kuo, Mads Lynnerup, Tala Madani, Mehra, Rashaad Newsome, Jani Ruscica, Mickalene Thomas, and Guido van der Werve.

In 2018, Mehra was commissioned to create the Spring 2018 *Canadian Art Magazine* cover for the Dirty Words issue. For the cover image she recreated the set of the popular Canadian sketch comedy show, *You Can't Do That On Television*, and reimagined one of the infamous recurring moments when a character on set is being drenched with slime whenever they say *I don't know*. That same issue also features an artist folio by her — entitled Tone — that explores the complexity of South Asian diasporic experiences.

Mehra was the subject of a 2018 episode of the CBC Arts docuseries, *In The Making*. The series, hosted by Sean O’Neill, follows leading Canadian artists around the world as they bring their work to life. In the series finale, Mehra travels to India to begin work on a new inflatable work — a bouncy castle Taj Mahal — that was then exhibited for the first time as a special project for *Vision Exchange: Perspectives From India to Canada*, which began its cross-Canada tour in September 2018. The National Gallery of Canada acquired the work.

In 2023, Mehra was commissioned to create two new inflatable works for Nuit Blanche Toronto.

# Hulsean Lectures

The **Hulsean Lectures** were established from an endowment made by John Hulse to the University of Cambridge in 1790. At present, they consist of a series of four to eight lectures given by a university graduate on some branch of Christian theology.

## History

The lectures were originally to be given by a "learned and ingenious clergyman" from Cambridge, holding the degree of Master of Arts, who was under the age of forty years. The terms for the lectures were quite extensive and particular. The lecturer was

> to preach twenty sermons in the whole year, that is to say, ten sermons in the following spring in Saint Mary's Great Church in Cambridge, namely, one sermon either on the Friday morning or else on Sunday afternoon in every week during the months of April and May and the two first weeks of June, and likewise ten sermons in the same church in the following Autumn, either on the Friday morning or else on Sunday afternoon in every week during the months of September and October and during the two first weeks in November ... The subject of five sermons in the Spring and likewise of five sermons in the Autumn shall be to show the evidence for Revealed Religion, and to demonstrate in the most convincing and persuasive manner the Truth and Excellence of Christianity, so as to include not only the prophecies and miracles, general and particular, but also any other proper and useful arguments, whether the same be direct or collateral proofs of the Christian religion, which he may think fittest to discourse upon, either in general or particular, especially the collateral arguments, or else any particular article or branch thereof, and chiefly against notorious infidels, whether atheists or deists, not descending to any particular sects or controversies (so much to be lamented) amongst Christians themselves, except some new or dangerous error either of superstition or enthusiasm, as of Popery or Methodism or the like ... \[The lecturer\] may at his own discretion preach either more or fewer than ten sermons on this great argument only, provided he shall in consequence thereof lessen or increase the number of the other ten remaining sermons which are hereinafter directed to be on the more obscure parts of Holy Scripture in a due proportion, so as that he shall every year preach twenty sermons on these subjects in the whole. And as to the ten sermons that remain, of which five are to be preached in the Spring and five in the Autumn as before mentioned, the lecturer or preacher shall take for his subject some of the more difficult texts or obscure parts of the Holy Scriptures, such I mean as may appear to be more generally useful or necessary to be explained, and which may best admit of such a comment or explanation without presuming to pry too far into the profound secrets or awful mysteries of the Almighty. And in all the said twenty sermons such practical observations shall be made and such useful conclusions added as may best instruct and edify mankind, the said twenty sermons to be every year printed and a new preacher to be every elected (except in the case of the extraordinary merit of the preacher) when it may sometimes be thought proper to continue the same person for five, at the most for six years together, but no longer term, nor shall he ever afterwards be again elected to the same duty.

As a result of these rather demanding terms and conditions, for some thirty years (1790–1819) no person could be found who would undertake the office of this lectureship. The first to accept was Christopher Benson, who held the post until 1822, at which time he quit, having found the terms and conditions imposed by the lectureship too fatiguing and laborious. For the rest of the decade, only two more lecturers were found, and both in their turn resigned for the same reasons. Finally, in 1830, after the post had remained vacant for three years, the Court of Chancery reduced the number of lectures to be given in a year to eight and extended the deadline for publishing the lectures to one year following the delivery of the last lecture. In 1860 the number of lectures was further reduced to a minimum of four. Also changed at this time was the length of appointment to one year, with the possibility of reappointment after an interval of five years; the lecturer need not be a clergyman, but simply have some higher degree from Cambridge and be at least thirty years of age; and the necessity of printing or publishing the lectures was done away with. The topic was somewhat simplified to something that would show the evidence for Revealed Religion, or to explain some of the most difficult texts or obscure parts of Holy Scripture. Finally, by 1952 the topic was changed to its present wording, "on some branch of Christian Theology", and the office of the lectureship was extended to two years.

The following list of lectures has been compiled from a number of different sources.

# Alif Khan

**Alif Khan** (born 1968) is a citizen of Afghanistan who was held in extrajudicial detention in the United States' Guantanamo Bay detention camps, in Cuba. His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number was 673.

He was repatriated on 23 March 2003.

## McClatchy News Service interview

On 15 June 2008, the McClatchy News Service published a series of articles based on interviews with 66 former Guantanamo captives. Alif Khan was one of the former captives who had an article profiling him.

Alif Khan told his McClatchy interviewer that he had to move to Kabul after his repatriation because his early release put him at risk from local Taliban in his home area. They had approached him, upon his return to Khost, and told him he should travel to Waziristan and fight with the Taliban. When he declined he started receiving death threats.

He said that he was apprehended by Afghan troops in early 2002, while traveling from Khost to Kabul. He said the same corrupt troops had stopped him a few days earlier, and had released him in return for a bribe. The troops who arrested him were under the overall command of warlord Abdullah Mujahid, who was later sent to Guantanamo himself.

Alif Khan said he never knew why had been sent to Guantanamo. He had been issued a laminated card when he was repatriated to Afghanistan. He showed it to his interviewer, and asked for an explanation of what it said. It said:

Alif Khan had been held in the Kandahar detention facility and the Bagram Theater Internment Facility prior to being sent to Guantanamo.

The McClatchy reporter speculated that Alif Khan's early release was either a sign analysts determined he was completely innocent, or that the allegations against him were not regarded as serious.

## BBC Panorama: Inside Guantanamo

In October 2003, A BBC1 television reporter, Vivian White, attempted to put human faces on 'terrorism suspects' who had been 'disappeared' in America's war on terrorism. One of the human faces she chose was Alif Khan, an Afghan businessman who was arrested when the taxi he was riding in was stopped by local forces. Khan described his transportation to Guantanamo: "They put cuffs and tape on my hands, taped my eyes, they taped my ears. They gagged me. They put chains on my legs and chains around my belly. They injected me. I was unconscious. I don’t know how they transported me." White also described how Khan has struggled to rebuild his life after his release.

text:
# Alvania cosmia

***Alvania cosmia*** is a species of minute sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk or micromollusk in the family Rissoidae.

## Taxonomy

This and other Western American species were attributed to *Alvinia* Monterosato, 1884, following Keen (1971); nevertheless it is not proved to be more related to the Mediterranean type species *Alvania weinkauffi* Weinkauff, 1868 than to other *Alvania* s.l. and is therefore retained in *Alvania*.

## Description

The length of the shell attains 2.2 mm, it diameter 1.2 mm.

(Original description) The small shell is elongate-ovate. It is white and semitranslucent. The protoconch consists of 1½ whorls and is marked by four, moderately strong, spiral lirations which are separated by strongly impressed lines. The teleoconch whorls are appressed at the summit, strongly, slopingly shouldered. The shoulder extends from the summit to the anterior termination of the posterior third between the sutures. It is marked by two strong nodulose, spiral keels, of which the first is situated on the angle of the shoulder, while the second is about as far posterior to the suture as the first is anterior to the summit. In addition to these spiral keels, the whorls are marked by moderately strong, axial ribs which become enfeebled on the shoulder and anterior to the second keel. Of these ribs, 16 occur upon the first and second, and 18 upon the penultimate turn. The spaces enclosed between the spiral keels and axial ribs are large, deeply impressed, squarish pits, while their junctions form cusp-like tubercles. The suture is strongly channeled. The periphery of the body whorl is marked by a strong, sublamellar, spiral keel. The base of the shell is moderately long, marked by three spiral keels, which grow successively weaker and closer spaced from the periphery to the umbilical area. The broad spaces between the spiral keels are marked by slender, axial lines of growth. The aperture is broadly ovate. The posterior angle is obtuse. The outer lip is reinforced immediately behind the edge by a strong varix, transparent, showing the external sculpture within. The inner lip is rather stout, decidedly curved, and strongly reflected over and appressed to the base. The parietal wall is covered with a thick callus which renders the peritreme complete.

## Distribution

This species occurs in the Pacific Ocean off Lower California.

# Ahmed Taha Abu Ragheef

**Ahmed Taha Hashim Abu Ragheef** (*أحمد أبو رغيف* in Arabic) is an Iraqi military officer with the rank of First Lieutenant General.

## Education

Abu Ragheef is a graduate of the Police College. He holds bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate degrees in law..

## Career

He has held several different positions within the Iraqi security apparatus, such as the Deputy Assistant for Intelligence Affairs, the Assistant Director of Baghdad Police, the Assistant Chief of Baghdad Police, the Assistant Director of Interior Affairs, the Director of Interior Affairs, and the Assistant Undersecretary to the Director of the Intelligence Agency.

### Anti-corruption committee

In August 2020, Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi announced the formation of a supreme investigation committee to investigate major corruption and criminal cases. It is a supreme investigative committee under the authority of the Office of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. Former Prime Minister Al-Kadhimi chose Abu Ragheef to head the special commission who worked with his own team of investigators and judges.

In 2020, Committee 29 made the headlines for its publicized practices that included night raids during which security forces would arrest suspects. Abu Ragheef was even nicknamed in Iraq "the night visitor".

In March 2022, the committee was considered unconstitutional. Shortly after in November 2022, Abu Ragheef was dismissed, by the new government of Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani, marking the beginning of a series of position changes within the security sphere in Iraq. Major-General Maher Najm replaced Abu Ragheef at the head of the committee.

## Assassination attempt

According to the Ministry of Interior, Abu Ragheef survived an assassination attempt in Baghdad in May 2022

# Dorothy Pelham Beckley

**Dorothy Pelham Beckley** (May 1897 – August 16, 1959) was an American educator and clubwoman. She was the second national president of the Delta Sigma Theta sorority, in office from 1923 to 1926.

## Early life and education

Gabrielle Dorothy Pelham was born in Detroit, Michigan and raised in Washington, D.C., the daughter of Robert Pelham Jr. and Gabrielle Lewis Pelham. Her father was a lawyer, inventor, and newspaper editor who worked for the U.S. Census Bureau; her mother was a pianist and organist from Ohio, who taught music in Washington, and was one of the founders of the Detroit Study Club. Her sister Sara Pelham Speaks was a lawyer and activist. Their uncles included Fred B. Pelham, the first Black engineering graduate from the University of Michigan, and George F. Pelham, a noted architect.

While she was at Howard University during World War I, she was active in the school's Red Cross unit.

## Career

Pelham was a founding member of the Washington, D.C. alumnae chapter of Delta Sigma Theta in 1921. From 1923 to 1926 she was national president of the sorority. She spoke on a panel about "The Part of the Young College-Bred Negro in Race Betterment" at a national conference held at Howard University in 1924. In 1925, she became a member of the executive board of the National Association of College Women. In 1927, she refused re-election to a third term as president of Delta Sigma Theta, and she gave a radio address from the sorority's national meeting in Cincinnati, Ohio. Also in 1927, she made an unsuccessful legal protest against being transferred from one school to another.

In 1939, as a member of the Interracial Committee of the District of Columbia, Beckley testified about school funding before a Senate committee hearing on appropriations. During World War II, she was salvage chair of the Howard Park Defense Area, and organized a scrap metal drive called "Give-a-Gun Week" in 1942. She also organized a book drive in the segregated schools, to send reading material to servicemen overseas. After the war, she was active in fundraising for the Ionia A. Whipper Home.

## Personal life

Pelham married physician Edgar R. Beckley Jr. in 1926. They had three sons. Her husband died in 1949, and she died in 1959.

title: 1986 Talladega 500

abstract: The 1986 Talladega 500 was the 17th stock car race of the 1986 NASCAR Winston Cup Series and the 18th iteration of the event. The race was held on Sunday, July 27, 1986, before an audience of 105,000 in Lincoln, Alabama at Alabama International Motor Speedway, a 2.66 miles permanent triangle-shaped superspeedway. The race took the scheduled 188 laps to complete. In a race plagued by high temperatures, by the final laps of the race, few cars remained. Of the ones that did, a battle for the lead between Stavola Brothers Racing's Bobby Hillin Jr., Hendrick Motorsports' Tim Richmond, and Ricky Rudd, who at the time was replaced by Rusty Wallace, was created that stretched out into the final lap of the race. At the finish, Hillin Jr. was able to defend the two, securing his only career NASCAR Winston Cup Series victory, his only win of the season, and at the time, the record for the youngest driver to win in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series. To fill out the top three, Richmond and Rudd finished second and third, respectively.

## Background

**Talladega Superspeedway**, originally known as **Alabama International Motor Superspeedway (AIMS)**, is a motorsports complex located north of Talladega, Alabama. It is located on the former Anniston Air Force Base in the small city of Lincoln. The track is a tri-oval and was constructed in the 1960s by the International Speedway Corporation, a business controlled by the France family. Talladega is most known for its steep banking and the unique location of the start/finish line that's located just past the exit to pit road. The track currently hosts the NASCAR series such as the NASCAR Cup Series, Xfinity Series and the Camping World Truck Series. Talladega is the longest NASCAR oval, a 2.66-mile-long (4.28 km) tri-oval like the Daytona International Speedway, which also is a 2.5-mile-long (4.0 km) tri-oval.

## Qualifying

Qualifying was split into two rounds. The first round was held on Thursday, July 24, at 2:00 PM EST. Each driver had one lap to set a time. During the first round, the top 20 drivers in the round were guaranteed a starting spot in the race. If a driver was not able to guarantee a spot in the first round, they had the option to scrub their time from the first round and try and run a faster lap time in a second round qualifying run, held on Friday, July 25, at 2:00 PM EST. As with the first round, each driver had one lap to set a time. For this specific race, positions 21-40 were decided on time, and depending on who needed it, a select amount of positions were given to cars who had not otherwise qualified but were high enough in owner's points; up to two provisionals were given.

Bill Elliott, driving for Melling Racing, won the pole, setting a time of 45.817 and an average speed of 209.005 miles per hour (336.361 km/h) in the first round.

Four drivers failed to qualify.

title: Akerbeltz

abstract: Akerbeltz or Aker is a spirit in the folk mythology of the Basque people. It is said to live inside the land and is believed to have as many elves as servants. In Christianity, Akerbeltz is considered the live image of the devil, performing sexual abuses against Christians. Contemporary belief holds that Akerbeltz was an ancient deity who protected animals. The billy goat was adored in other European countries as well as the Basque Country. Some beliefs about this mythological creature have endured.

# Akerbeltz

**Akerbeltz** or **Aker** (from Basque *aker*, 'billy goat' and *beltz*, 'black') is a spirit in the folk mythology of the Basque people. It is said to live inside the land and is believed to have as many elves as servants. In Christianity, Akerbeltz is considered the live image of the devil, performing sexual abuses against Christians.

Contemporary belief holds that Akerbeltz was an ancient deity who protected animals. The billy goat was adored in other European countries as well as the Basque Country. Some beliefs about this mythological creature have endured.

## During history and in other mythologies

Pierre de Lancre, an inquisitor who went looking for women from Labourd and Lower Navarre who were supposed to be witches, wrote a book called *Tableu de I´Inostance* in which he documented the testimony of a supposed witch: "Akerbeltz has a man's face, big and terrifying". Another witch said that he had two faces, one in front and the other one in the back.

In words of other inquisitors, Akerbeltz was similar to an enormous dog or to a big ox which is incorrect or lies. This last case could be related to the myth of the Aatxe (another creature of the Basque mythology). As men who look for witches said, Aker gave a parody of the Catholic mass to his followers, and during the mass, they offer him eggs, bread and money.

In the mass explained before, Aker gave a parody sermon, and after that speech, he organised a lunch with his witches and elves. In that lunch it was served human-meat and his horns functioned as gigantic candles. To continue with the celebration, Aker and his followers danced together with the sound of a tabor. And finally, the witches made their spells.

Folklorists say that Akerbeltz was similar to some ancient deities such as Dionysus, in terms of excesses, and Pan, in terms of sexual abuses.

Jose Miguel Barandiaran, who investigated and compiled the Basque culture, said that the picture of Akerbeltz was similar to Mari (another spirit from the Basque mythology) because they had some characteristics in common.

There were some other beliefs which say that he was the animals' and houses' protector, and he had the power for treating the animals. He was also the life image of the fertility. And as he was black, many people from the Basque Country had had a black billy-goat in their stable in order to protect the rest of the animals.

## Tales

* He had the power for creating storms and to dress the animals he had under his care. That is why in some Baserri they used to have a billy-goat.
* He was supposed to be in the entrance of the caves of Zugarramurdi where elves, lamia, and witches met.

Once a priest entered in a cave with a host. While he was touching the gold he was wearing, a snake appeared and ate his hands so he left the cave without hands. From inside the cave some mysterious voices could be heard, and they said :" thanks what you were wearing in your chest, because if not you will have to stay here". After this, it can be heard a Basque saying which says: *"Auza, han baduk gauza; baina neok ezin har"*.

* Neighbours from Baigorri say that Aker's ghost lived in some caves in the area.
* In Urepel, from the Biurretabuxtan baserri *Juan Monakok* said that there was a cave full of gold, and near that gold there were a snake and Aker. Many times had a priest gone praying to the cave so that the snake and Akerbeltz go, but they have never gone from there.

## Other beliefs

* Black billy-goats have always been very valuable in Aragon and in the Basque Pyrenees because as the myths say, they can take care of the rest of the animals and the house.
* People from the Pyrenees thought that witches, Akerbeltz and the demon could go to any house and take the beard from a billy-goat in order to make hail. That is the reason why in Freser they have always said: *"A la casa han tosa la cabra, aquesta tarde tindrem pedra"*; "They have cut the billy goat's beard, this afternoon it is going to hail".

title: Apfelschorle

abstract: Apfelschorle, also Apfelsaftschorle or Apfelsaft gespritzt in German, is a popular soft drink in Switzerland, Germany, and Austria. It consists of carbonated mineral water and apple juice. The broader category Fruchtschorle consists of any fruit juice mixed with carbonated water, but Apfelschorle is by far the most common. Spritzer is called Weinschorle.

text:
# Apfelschorle

**Apfelschorle** (pronounced \[ˈapfəlʃɔɐ̯lə\] ) (apple spritzer), also **Apfelsaftschorle** (apple juice spritzer) or **Apfelsaft gespritzt** (splashed apple juice, more widely used in Hessen, Bayern, and Austria) in German, is a popular soft drink in Switzerland, Germany, and Austria. It consists of carbonated mineral water and apple juice. The broader category **Fruchtschorle** consists of any fruit juice mixed with carbonated water, but Apfelschorle is by far the most common. Spritzer (that is, wine mixed with carbonated water) is called **Weinschorle**.

## Nutrition

Apfelschorle contains fewer calories and is less sweet than pure apple juice. It is also nearly isotonic. This makes it popular in summer and among athletes.

## Content

Commercially available Apfelschorle generally contains between 50% and 60% juice. Often, lemon juice concentrate is added.

## Production

Brands of Apfelschorle in Germany include Spreequell, Gerolsteiner (which also sells mineral water), Rhodius, Bizzl, and many other local brands. The most famous brand in Switzerland is Ramseier. However, domestically and in most bars and restaurants Apfelschorle is usually mixed *ad hoc* from apple juice and carbonated water.

# Hutt Water Collection Area

**Hutt Water Collection Area** is a reserve located in Upper Hutt in the Wellington Region at the southern end of New Zealand's North Island. It is administered by Wellington Regional Council and is located alongside the larger Kaitoke Regional Park.

The park covers 8,900 hectares (22,000 acres) in the headwaters of Te Awa Kairangi / Hutt River at the southern end of the Tararua Range. The Kaitohe weir is the largest of Wellington Water's three water supply sources, providing between 40 and 50% of the water supply for the Wellington urban area.

## Geography

The landscape is rugged and mountainous, with streams and narrow, steep-sided ridges. Hilltops are extremely exposed to the north-west and the south, with high winds and fog. There can be sudden weather changes, and rivers and streams can rise very rapidly in heavy rain.

The park has extensive silver beech and red beech. The valley floor includes podocarpaceae, alpine tussock and sub-alpine sphagnum bog. It includes some of the Wellington Region's southern rātā, and native forest birds like kākā, kākāriki and kārearea.

## History

There is very little evidence of Māori or European use of the land during the 19th century. It was not sold off by the New Zealand Company in 1840, but part of it may have been sold to private interests during Kāpiti Coast land sales before 1860.

Private landowners began selling the land to local authorities for water supplies when the Wellington City and Suburban Water Supply Board was established in 1927. A sale was proposed again in 1936, but a sale didn't take place until 20 November 1951 following a change of ownership.

An aerial 1080 pest control programme took place in the area in 2019. A further aerial drop was due to take place during winter 2022.

## Recreation

The park is open from 6am until dusk. Dogs and fireworks are not permitted at any time.

There are tracks for walking, running and tramping in the park:

* Kaitoke to Hutt Forks (2 hours), a formed track over the ridge into the catchment.
* Hutt Forks - Alpha via Eastern Hutt (5 hours), a marked route from the right bank of the Eastern Hutt River, that later becomes unmarked.
* Hutt Forks - Alpha via Quoin Ridge (6 hours), a track from Forks Head north up Quoin Ridge, which requires a map and compass.
* Hutt Forks - Renata Hutt via Western Hutt (7 hours), an unmarked track from Hutt Forks up the Western Hutt River.
* Hutt Forks - Renata Hut via Maymorn Ridge (6 hours), a partially marked track from Hutt Forks to Maymorn Junction.

Hunters with appropriate permits can hunt for deer, pigs and goats throughout the park.

# Dylan Wiliam

**Dylan ap Rhys Wiliam** is a Welsh educationalist. He is emeritus professor of educational assessment at the UCL Institute of Education. He lives in Bradford County, Florida, United States.

## Early life and education

Born in North Wales, Wiliam grew up in a monoglot Welsh-speaking family. He did not learn English until attending Whitchurch Grammar School in Cardiff and Altrincham Grammar School for Boys in Greater Manchester. He continued further education at the University of Durham (Bachelor of Science, 1976), the Open University (Bachelor of Arts, 1983), the Polytechnic of the South Bank (Master of Science, 1985) and the University of London (PhD, 1993).

## Research and career

His research focus is the professional development of teachers. His 1998 book, *Inside the Black Box*, which he wrote with Paul Black, was a successful polemic about formative assessment, selling over 100,000 copies. Wiliam, along with Black were educational advisors to Tony Blair, and in 2013 Wiliam and Black wrote a report that criticised the current assessment, stating *"A-level grades are an unreliable guide to a student's ability."* He demonstrated his ideas in a 2010 BBC documentary series, *The Classroom Experiment*, in which a class at Hertswood School was encouraged to participate more widely in activities such as answering questions. He further expands on these ideas in his 2011 book, *Embedded Formative Assessment*, which describes five key strategies of effective formative assessment in the classroom.

According to Google Scholar and Scopus his most cited peer reviewed publications are on assessment for learning (AFL) and formative assessment.

# Dixon Hotel, Tooley Street

The **Dixon Hotel**, in Tooley Street in the London borough of Southwark, is a former magistrates' court and police station designed by John Dixon Butler. Opened in 1906, it operated as a court until closure in 2013. Subsequently sold, it re-opened as The Dixon, in honour of the building's architect, and became a hotel operating as part of the Marriott International group. It is a Grade II listed building.

## History and description

The architect John Dixon Butler (1860-1920) succeeded his father as Architect and Surveyor to the Metropolitan Police in 1895. Apprenticed to R. Norman Shaw, Dixon Butler worked under Shaw on the designs for New Scotland Yard (south building); the position being reversed at Canon Row Police Station where Butler was the lead architect and Shaw the assisting consultant. Dixon Butler went on to design over 200 public buildings, predominantly courts and police stations, across London. Historic England describes him as "one of the most accomplished Metropolitan Police architects". His architectural style was predominantly Baroque Revival and he was much influenced by Shaw.

The Dixon Hotel was designed as the Tower Bridge Police Court, latterly Tower Bridge Magistrates' Court and Police Station, in 1904 and opened in 1906. Built in stone and red brick laid in Flemish bond, the style is "Edwardian Baroque". The *London: South* Pevsner describes it as "quite spectacular of its date". It features doorcases with elaborate hoods, which became something of a Dixon Butler trademark. From the 1970s the Police Station at Tower Bridge was one of four bases for the Metropolitan Police’s Flying Squad, which specialised in responses to high-value armed robbery. The court closed in 2013 and was subsequently sold, re-opening as a hotel in 2019. The hotel's Courtroom Bar is located in the original magistrates' courtroom and a chandelier in the lobby is constructed from old handcuffs. The original wood panelling remains, and the judge’s bench has also been transformed into a bar, which sits beneath the judge's original oak canopy

title: Lucien D. Gardner

abstract: Lucien Dunbidden Gardner was a justice of the Alabama Supreme Court from 1914 to 1951. He served as chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court from 1940 to 1951. Gardner was an alumnus of Troy State University and University of Alabama School of Law. He was elected to the Alabama State Senate in 1906. In 1914, he was appointed to a seat on the Alabama Supreme Court vacated by the elevation of C. J. Anderson to chief justice. Gardner then won election to the remainder of the term, and was reelected as a Justice in 1922, 1928, and 1934. In 1940, Governor Frank M. Dixon elevated Gardner to Chief Justice, and he won election to that office later in 1940, winning reelection again in 1946. In an anti-miscegenation case ruling in Alabama, Gardner stated that "It is reprehensible enough for a white man to live in adultery with a white woman thus defying the laws of God and man, but it is more so, and a much lower grade of depravity, for a white man to live in adultery with a Negro woman." During the 1948 presidential election campaign, Gardner's court made a landmark ruling that Alabama's presidential electors can never be required to vote for any party's national nominee. This had the effect of excluding both current incumbent President Harry S. Truman and 1964 incumbent Lyndon Baines Johnson from ballot access in Alabama. He married Henrietta Wiley of Troy, Alabama. His son, Lucien D. Gardner, Jr., grandson, William F. Gardner, and great-grandson, Robert T. Gardner, also became lawyers. Gardner was a Baptist. Gardner died in a hospital in Montgomery, Alabama, at the age of 76, following a period of ill health, and six months after the death of his wife.
