title: Frédéric Gounongbe

text:
Frédéric Vinami Henri Gounongbe (born 1 May 1988) is a former professional footballer who played as a centre forward.

A latecomer to professional football, he rose to prominence during a spell with Belgian Third Division side Woluwe-Zaventem, scoring 19 times in the 2011–12 season. His form attracted the attention of Belgian Pro League side Zulte Waregem and he joined the club on a two-year deal. However, he never appeared for the first team and after spending the 2012–13 season on loan at the club, he joined RWDM Brussels on a permanent deal. In 2014, he returned to the Pro League with Westerlo where he spent two seasons, before spending two seasons with Welsh club Cardiff City. After leaving Cardiff in 2018, he retired from football.

Born in Belgium, Gounongbe chose to represent Benin at international level, making his debut in 2014.

Early and personal life
Gounongbe was born in Brussels to a Beninese father and a Belgian mother. He played tennis as a teenager and regarded the sport as his number one discipline.

He later graduated from EPHEC University College with a bachelor's degree in international business.

Club career

Belgium
At the age of 16, he took up football after visiting a training session with a friend, training with local amateur sides in Auderghem before joining Belgian Fourth Division side Léopold. However, he did not become a full professional until the relatively late age of 23. He joined Woluwe-Zaventem in 2008 and attracted attention after scoring 35 goals in 71 matches for the club during a four-year spell, including 19 during the 2011–12 season in the Belgian Third Division B. His form attracted interest from several clubs and he eventually joined Belgian Pro League side Zulte Waregem on a two-year deal. The club's head scout, Toon Mertens described Gounongbe as "a powerful forward with flair to score. He has already scored 16 goals this season [...] he is lively and quick for his size".

He was named as a substitute on four occasions for the side but never made a first team appearance and eventually joined RWDM Brussels on loan in August 2012. He scored 9 goals in 28 appearances for the club but was released by Zulte Waregem on his return to the club at the end of the season, signing a permanent one-year deal with RWDM Brussels. He scored 11 times for the club during the 2013–14 season, despite being restricted to just 18 appearances due to a fibula injury. With the club experiencing financial difficulties, Gounongbe left the club at the end of the season following the end of his contract, joining newly promoted Belgian Pro League side Westerlo. He scored his first goal in the Pro League on 2 August 2014 during a 3–2 victory over Charleroi.

Cardiff City

On 1 July 2016, he joined Football League Championship side Cardiff City on a free transfer following the expiry of his contract at Westerlo, signing a two-year deal. He made his debut for the club in a 0–0 draw with Birmingham City on the opening day of the 2016–17 season. Gounongbe failed to score in nine games and was eventually dropped by new manager, Neil Warnock. He made three more substitute appearances before suffering an injury that required surgery, ruling him out of the rest of the season.

He made his return on 18 November, coming on a substitute against Brentford, playing two more games before suffering a groin injury, which ruled him out for several months. Gounongbe was released at the end of the 2017–18 season, following Cardiff's promotion to the Premier League. Following his departure, he decided to retire from football on doctor's advice due to a long-term injury.

International career
Gounongbe received his first call-up to the Benin national football team from manager Didier Ollé-Nicolle in 2014, making his debut on 17 May 2014 as a substitute in place of Mohamed Aoudou during a 2–0 victory over São Tomé and Príncipe in the first leg of the first qualifying round for the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations. In the second leg of the fixture, Gounongbe was handed his first start for Benin, scoring his first international goal in his home debut in Porto-Novo before being substituted late in the match for Razak Omotoyossi.

International goals

After football
Following his retirement, Gounongbe attended university and graduated in asset management.

title: Brücke der Solidarität

text:
The Bridge of Solidarity () is a bridge across the Rhine between the boroughs of Rheinhausen and Hochfeld in the city of Duisburg.

Bridge history

Construction on the bridge's predecessor, the Admiral-Graf-Spee-Brücke, was started on 12 January 1934 and the bridge was inaugurated on 22 May 1936 by then-minister Joseph Goebbels. Total building cost was 6.75 million Reichsmark. Like the Duisburg-Hochfeld Railway Bridge, the bridge was blown up by the retreating Wehrmacht on 4 March 1945. Only the floodplain bridge on the left bank of the Rhine remained.

In July 1945, a new bridge was already under construction and the bridge was opened to traffic on 3 July 1950. Following a recommendation of Krupp Stahlbau Rheinhausen, the new bridge was built as a Tied-arch bridge, the largest of its kind in Germany at the time with a span of 255.9 metres.
While the previous bridge had four lanes, the British Military government insisted on a three-lane bridge. The bridge was thoroughly renovated in the early 1990s, especially the old floodplain bridge parts. Since a few years, it is possible to adjust the direction of the lanes to current demand by a traffic light system.

Technical data
 Type of construction: Tied-arch bridge
 Arch width: 255.91 m
 Pfeilhöhe 35.5 m
 Versteifungsträger: einwandig genietete Blechträger mit 4320 mm Stegblechhöhe
 Abstand der Versteifungsträger: 12.4 m
 Steghöhe des Hutquerschnitts: 1.7 m am Scheitel, 2.10 m am Kämpfer
 Carriageway width: 9 m (3 lanes at 3 m each)
 Cycle lane width: 1.1 m
 Footpath width: 1.8 m

Naming
In 1987, Rheinhausen was present in the media due to the protests against the closing of the local steelworks. On 10 December 1987 the bridge was occupied by Krupp workers to protest against the closure of their plant. During the whole winter of 1987 and 1988 large demonstrations against the closing of the remaining smeltery followed. Apart from the Rhine bridge, protesters also occupied the Bundesautobahn 40 and blockaded the Krupp head offices at Villa Hügel in Essen. Pickets accompanied the conflicts for months. Therefore, Rheinhausen became a synonym for steel crisis. The Rheinhausen-Hochfeld bridge was renamed to Brücke der Solidarität by the protesting workers on 20 January 1988. On this day, 50,000 steel workers from more than 60 melteries marched to the bridge. The apprentices of the Krupp training workshop manufactured the new name plate overnight. Soon thereafter, the name was officially adapted by the city of Duisburg.

title: Hannibal (Leckie novel)

text:
Hannibal is a 1995 historical novel by Scottish writer Ross Leckie. The book relates the exploits of Hannibal's invasion of Rome beginning in 218 BC, narrated by the Carthaginian general in his retirement. It was the first of the Carthage trilogy, covering the Punic Wars. The novel received mixed reviews, mainly due to the extreme violence occasionally described in the narrative.

Synopsis
Beginning with the general's youth and a potted history of Carthage in an attempt to explain Hannibal's hatred of Rome, the bulk of the story is confined to the invasion of Italy and the epic journey Hannibal's army took to reach its goal, including the voyage across the Straits of Gibraltar with his elephants on rafts, the far from easy passage through Spain and of course, the incredible feat of taking his entire army with their elephants over the Alps. The events described are often violent and sometimes quite horrific in their cruelty both on the journey and in the fighting which took place on Italian soil as Hannibal's army sweeps through the Italian countryside seeking to out-manoeuvre his Roman opponents.

title: Belgian State Railways Type 10

text:
The Belgian State Railways Type 10, later known as the NMBS/SNCB Type 10, was a class of  steam locomotives built between 1910 and 1914.

The class was used to work express trains operated by the Belgian State Railways and its successor, the National Railway Company of Belgium (NMBS/SNCB), which was established in 1926.

The locomotives were noteworthy for their unusually short boiler, which ended behind all four cylinders. This was due to the class sharing the boiler design with the Type 36 2-10-0 freight design, and the 2-10-0's weight limitations determined the length of the boiler.

There were two sub-types of the Type 10"

The first 29 engines were the most powerful; they mostly ran over hilly main lines, including the tough  between Brussels, Namur, Arlon and Luxembourg City
The last 29 were slightly lighter and had a smaller firebox; they were intended for easier lines, including the level line between Brussels and Ostend.

Despite these differences, the last sub-type was used extensively, on the Luxembourg line. Some type 10, captured by the Germans in World War I ; several damaged or worn out engines were cannibalized for spares and scrapped during the occupation of Belgium. After the war, between the 1920s and the 1940s the surviving type 10 were gradually upgraded with new superheaters, Legein or Kylchap dual exhaust, ACFI feedwater heather, smoke lifters, duplex air pumps, larger tenders borrowed from war reparation locomotives.

Despite being newer and fitted with a very large firebox, the new Type 1 Pacific, built in 1935, could not outperform the old Type 10, especially on steep inclines. The Type 5 Mikado, built in 1930 for the heaviest trains on the Luxembourg line, had many shortcomings and failed to replace the Type 10 as well.

The class was withdrawn in 1956 when the Luxembourg line was electrified but four Type 10 were displaced to Brussels South and used, until 1959, along with Type 1.

One member of the class, No. 10.018, has been preserved by the NMBS/SNCB for display at Train World, the Belgian national railway museum.

title: Alexander Gronsky

text:
Alexander Gronsky (Александр Гронский, born 1980) is a Russian landscape photographer. His photographs of the Russian landscape have been shown in solo exhibitions, received awards, and were published in the book Pastoral (2013). He is based in Riga, Latvia.

Life and work
Gronsky was born in Tallinn, Estonia. He became an assistant to a commercial photographer at age 17. In 1998, aged 18, he left Estonia. Between 1999 and 2008 he worked as a press photographer for Russian and international media, covering Russia and the former USSR. He joined the Photographer.ru agency in 2003 and in 2006 moved to Russia. He works commercially for advertising agencies, corporations and humanitarian organisations.

Since 2008 Gronsky has been oriented more on personal projects focusing on how geography influences the emotions and behaviour of its inhabitants, particularly those residing in the Russian landscape: Less Than One (2006-2009), a portrait of Russia's outermost regions, areas with a population density of less than one person per square kilometer; Endless Night (2007-2009), Murmansk, the largest city within the Arctic Circle, where the harsh winter is exacerbated by two months of night-time; The Edge (2008-2010), the same outskirts of Moscow as Pastoral only in winter; Mountains and Waters (2011), a study of China in which the mist and cloud that pervade the photos allude to traditional Chinese painting but the subject matter is contemporary: new housing, infrastructure and construction, in diptychs; Pastoral (2008-2012), explores the suburbs between Moscow and the countryside that surrounds it, evoking man's encounter with nature – picnickers eat beside heavy industry, sunbathers lie next to construction sites, and people stroll past piles of urban detritus; and Norilsk (2013).

Gronsky's book Pastoral was published in 2013. As Mikhail Iampolski, professor of Russian and Slavic Studies, writes in the introduction, "The title of the cycle is ironic. A pastoral always depicts a rural idyll, in contrast to the life of city dwellers, to whom it is addressed. In Gronsky’s cycle, the cardinal difference between the rural, the natural and the urban is lifted. This particular pastoral is not about a contrast, but about an indefinite transition." The critic Sean O'Hagan, reviewing Pastoral in The Observer, said "It is essentially, a book about how people use – and abuse – the precious green spaces available to them." Gronsky says he spent two years familiarising himself with all the suburbs of Moscow and a further two years photographing those he considered interesting. Rather than use a large format camera with a tripod as is typical for this style of photography, he kept his equipment to a minimum, using just a portable Mamiya 7 camera. This portability meant he did not look like a photographer, and gave him greater agility whilst composing to react to peoples' movements. Genevieve Fussell, writing in The New Yorker, said the work included "measured compositions and a deft use of color". O'Hagan also said "In photography, the edgeland has also become a prevailing subject in recent years, ... If this is much travelled-territory, Gronsky nevertheless makes it his own." Alexander Strecker, writing in LensCulture, said "Gronsky is a landscape photographer at heart. His skillful use of perspective and talent for composition lead the observer’s eye deeply into the landscape, generating a sense of astonishment for every place portrayed in photo. But simple astonishment deepens into something more complex as we take in the layered images".

title: Results of the 2012 Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election

text:
The election for the Sixteenth Legislative Assembly of Uttar Pradesh, a multi party contest, the Samajwadi party beating most of the exit polls which were pointing the hung assembly, secured a comfortable majority of 224 in a house of 403 outperforming the ruling BSP and other national parties, the INC and the BJP. The BSP strength in the assembly was greatly reduced to 80 seats, the BJP with 47 seats followed by the Congress with 28 seats. Mayawati, the incumbent Chief Minister tendered her resignation on 6 March 2012 marking the distinction of being the first to complete full five years in office.

List of Winning Candidates

Babban resigned on 8 October 2016.

Analysis

The election was accompanied by high voting of 59.40%, with impressive women turnouts. The good performance of the SP getting a majority on its own showed that the people had voted for stability and it was largely attributed to the lengthy campaign by Akhilesh Yadav mainly on the issues of law and order and good administration. The promises made by the party in its manifesto also seemed to have swayed the voters towards them, however there were reports of violence from various places soon after the results started coming which had resulted the death of one boy. The Muslim-Yadav combined vote bank worked in favor of the SP since in more than 140 assembly constituencies the Muslim electorate played a role in victory of the candidates. The people seemed to have voted against the BSP on issues of corruption, abuse of public money and Mayawati's alleged image as being unapproachable. The result also showed that the parties SP and BSP had merely exchanged their vote percentage differences during this election and previous election.
The defeat of the two national parties the Congress and the BJP was noted by the international media, even the two parties had performed well in 2009 general elections in the state. The reasons accounted of failure to offer as an alternative to the BSP, lack of chief ministerial candidate and proper leadership at the ground level. The lacklustre campaign headed by Rahul Gandhi and Uma Bharti also resulted to their losses. The election result had also put the campaigning style of Rahul Gandhi in question as he was in charge of the party and was earlier credited for party's victory in 2009 elections in the state. The defeat of the parties also showed their ill-preparedness for 2014 general elections with the rise of the regional parties. It also indicated that the central government headed by the Congress will be more at pressure from its allies, particularly the SP which is supporting the coalition at the center especially in cases of economic measures taken by the UPA government.
The electorate seems to have partly rejected candidates with criminal backgrounds along with some from political families.

title: Rosa Mary Barrett

text:
Rosa Mary Barrett (1855–1936) was an English-born Irish social reformer, educationalist and suffragist; her brother was the physicist William F. Barrett.

Barrett moved to Monkstown, Co. Dublin and then to Kingstown (now Dún Laoghaire), Co. Dublin, in Ireland. In 1879 she helped set up a committee for the establishment of a care facility for children, effectively a creche allowing women to enter the workforce. It eventually led to the establishment of The Cottage Home for Little Children which housed Protestant children. To avoid accusations of proselytising, the home did not accept Catholic children.

Rosa Barrett founded the Irish section of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children in 1889. In the 1901 census she lists her religion as a Congregationalist, her grandfather being a Congregationalist minister.

title: Lübeck-Travemünde Hafen station

text:
Lübeck-Travemünde Hafen station (also known as the Lübeck Hafenbahnhof in German) in Lübeck district of Travemünde in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein. It is one of three railway stations in Travemünde along with Lübeck-Travemünde Strand station.

History

The station was built by the Lübeck-Büchen Railway Company (Lübeck-Büchener Eisenbahn, LBE), which opened the railway from Lübeck to Travemünde in 1882. It originally ended at Travemünde Hafen station, but the line was extended to Travemünde Strand station in 1898. A three km-long branch line from Travemünde Hafen station to Niendorf on the Baltic Sea was opened in 1913 to improve access to this tourist spot. As part of this work a new station building was built to a design by Fritz Klingholz, who had also designed the new Travemünde Strand station a little earlier. The branch line to Niendorf, however, was closed in 1974. The station building was sold in 1996 and is now used as a restaurant. The station, which has been heritage-listed since 1992, was modernised in 2004 and a new outdoor platform was built on the former track 1 next to the former station building. The island platform on tracks 2 and 3 was abandoned. The freight tracks with a free loading track and loading ramp west of the entrance building (tracks 12 and 13) and the tracks north of the platforms (track 4–8) were abandoned and are no longer connected and have been partly dismantled. The station and the track have been electrified since 2008.

title: Elizabeth of Celje

text:
Elizabeth of Celje  (1441 – 1455), also Elizabeth of Cilli, was the first wife of Matthias Corvinus, the future King of Hungary.

Family background
Elizabeth was born to Ulrich II, Count of Celje and his wife Catherine Branković, daughter of the Serb despot George Branković. Her father was a Prince of the Holy Roman Empire, with extensive domains in both the Empire and in the Kingdom of Hungary, centered in Lower Styria, Carniola, and Slavonia. Her mother was the sister of Mara Branković, a favorite wife of the Ottoman sultan Murad II.

Elizabeth was most likely born in Celje, the family seat. She seems to have had a twin sister, called Catherine, who died as a child. Elizabeth was baptised in the Eastern Orthodox faith of her mother, an arrangement that aroused consternation in the Roman Catholic milieu of Celje.

Both of her brothers, Hermann IV and George, died by 1452. Thereafter she remained her parents' sole child, and the last offspring of the House of Celje.

Betrothal
Elizabeth was initially betrothed to John of Gorizia, son of count Henry IV of Gorizia, who was living in Celje under the tutelage of her father. However, it was later decided she would marry into the Hunyadi family.

Elizabeth's father and maternal grandfather were long-time opponents of John Hunyadi, as the houses of Celje and Hunyadi were competing for influence in the Kingdom of Hungary since the early 1440s. In June 1448, the two parties reached an agreement on the division of spheres of interest, sealed by Elizabeth's betrothal to Ladislaus, John Hunyadi's firstborn son.

In the autumn of the same year, Hunyadi was defeated by the Ottomans at Kosovo; captured by George Branković during his retreat, he was forced to return several estates to him. With the help of the pope, Hunyadi had the disvantageous agreement dissolved; as a consequence, the settlement with the Celjes was called off, as well. Under pressure from the estates, protracted negotiations ensued. In August 1451, a settlement was reached in Smederevo. This time, it was agreed that Elizabeth would marry John's second-born son, Matthias. The wedding was set to 6 December 1453, with the stipulation that should the marriage fail to materialize because any fault attributable to Branković, the latter’s castles and other estates in Hungary would be transferred to Hunyadi and his sons.

It was John Hunyadi himself, however, to call off the wedding few months before it was to take place. In the fall of 1453, in fact, Elizabeth's father fell out of favor with king Ladislaus, and Hunyadi took advantage of the situation to dissolve the alliance with the Celjes which limited his autonomy of action in Hungary. By February 1455, however, Ulrich was back in power, and George Branković was instrumental in renewing the alliance between his son-in-law and Hunyadi in order to secure a common front against the Ottoman threat.

Marriage and death

Following a renewal of the Celje-Hunyadi alliance, Elizabeth was married to Matthias in the spring of 1455, after having converted to Catholicism. By this time, Ulrich of Celje had remained without sons, with his wife approaching forty: Matthias thus became his most likely heir. He was sent to the royal court in Buda where Ulrich now resided as regent, while Elizabeth settled in the Hunyadis' estates; the two young spouses thus served mostly as hostages between their respective families.

In the winter of 1455, Elizabeth fell seriously ill. The famous preacher John Capistran organized public prayers for her recovery. However, she died before the end of the year at the Hunyadi court in Transylvania. With her death, Ulrich of Celje remained childless, and the last link between the Hunyadi and Celje families was cut.

title: List of Bloomsbury Group people

text:
This is a list of people associated with the Bloomsbury Group. Much about the group is controversial, including its membership: it has been said that "the three words 'the Bloomsbury group' have been so much used as to have become almost unusable".

Group of friends and relatives that became a movement
The Bloomsbury group started as a loose collective of friends and relatives living near Bloomsbury in London. Some of them knew each other from their time as students in Cambridge. Around World War I most of its key members had left the Bloomsbury area, where some of them later returned.

The members of the Bloomsbury Group denied being a group in any formal sense, they however shared common values, among which was a strong belief in the arts.

Core members
The group had ten core members:
 Clive Bell, art critic
 Vanessa Bell, post-impressionist painter
 E. M. Forster, fiction writer
 Roger Fry, art critic and post-impressionist painter
 Duncan Grant, post-impressionist painter, who later became a member of the Camden Town Group
 John Maynard Keynes, economist
 Desmond MacCarthy, literary journalist
 Lytton Strachey, biographer
 Leonard Woolf, essayist and non-fiction writer
 Virginia Woolf, fiction writer and essayist

Included according to Leonard Woolf
In the 1960s, Leonard Woolf additionally listed the following Bloomsbury Group members:
"Old Bloomsbury":
 Adrian Stephen
 Karin Stephen
 Saxon Sydney-Turner
 Mary (Molly) MacCarthy
Later additions:
 Julian Bell
 Quentin Bell
 Angelica Bell
 David Garnett

Mentioned in various sources as included in the Bloomsbury Group
Various sources include the following:
 Lady Ottoline Morrell
 Dora Carrington
 James Strachey
 Alix Strachey
 Lydia Lopokova, Keynes' wife, accepted in the group

Generally not seen as members of the Bloomsbury Group

Died before the group really existed
 Thoby Stephen, brother to key members Adrian Stephen, Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell

Omega Workshops
Roger Fry and other Bloomsbury Group artists such as Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant were involved in the Omega Workshops, a business which traded from 1913 to 1919. Other designers and manufacturers at the Workshops were not necessarily members of the Bloomsbury Group.

Ottoline Morrell circle
The Bloomsbury Group only partially identified with Lady Ottoline Morrell, but attended her parties at Garsington Manor. Others present:
 L. P. Hartley
 Eardley Knollys
 Philip Morrell
 Aldous Huxley and his wife Maria Nys

Hogarth Press
Hogarth Press was the publishing house owned by Leonard and Virginia Woolf after they had left the Bloomsbury area in 1917. Staff members and authors published by that company were not necessarily part of the Bloomsbury Group. The following are generally not seen as part of the Bloomsbury Group:
 Published by Hogarth Press:
 T. S. Eliot
 Katherine Mansfield
 Vita Sackville-West, "Hogarth Press's best-selling author"
 Julia Strachey, Lytton Stratchey's niece
 Hogarth Press personnel:
John Lehmann, later starting his own publishing company

LGBT extended groups

The Bloomsbury Group plays a prominent role in the LGBT history of its day. While still in the Bloomsbury area, LGBT activity was all very much in a single group (e.g. Duncan Grant, a homosexual with bisexual leanings, having affairs with Maynard Keynes, James Strachey, Adrian Stephen, David Garnett and straight Vanessa Bell). Names of LGBT people outside the Bloomsbury Group strictly speaking include:
 Mary Garman
 Nina Hamnett
 Jane Ellen Harrison
 Rupert Brooke
 Arthur Hobhouse

Later the groups differentiated. Keynes married Lopokova, and no longer belonged to any of the LGBT groups. Other groups more or less split according to the location of the members:
 Lady Ottoline Morrell provided housing for Aldous Huxley at Garsington where he was married to Maria Nys after the war.
 Also Duncan Grant and David Garnett had to work on the land as conscientious objectors during World War I. They started living with Vanessa Bell (also her son Julian) in Charleston Farmhouse:
 Francis Birrell started a bookshop together with David Garnett later on.

 Also during the First World War, Lytton Strachey and Dora Carrington moved to Tidmarsh Mill House, Berkshire. Later (in a ménage à trois with straight Ralph Partridge) they moved to Ham Spray House, Wiltshire.
Roger Senhouse was Lytton Strachey's last lover.
 E. M. Forster spent his time as conscientious objector in Egypt, and remained there some time after the First World War. When returning to England his circle of LGBT friends and acquaintances included:
 W. J. H. Sprott
 J. R. Ackerley
 Christopher Isherwood
 Siegfried Sassoon
 Forrest Reid
 Benjamin Britten

After Virginia Woolf had moved to Monk's House, East Sussex, she met Vita Sackville-West, writing her roman à clef Orlando: A Biography about her. Woolf also met the LGBT people around her, including:
Harold Nicolson, Sackville-West's husband
 Benedict Nicolson, their son
 Violet Trefusis, her former lover
 Ethel Smyth, another later acquaintance of Virginia Woolf
 Katherine Mansfield and John Lehmann, LGBT acquaintances linked to the publishing company she owned with her husband (Hogarth Press).

Others
Others not generally considered part of the Bloomsbury Group properly speaking (some of them only befriended individual group members, not or only partially sharing their views or not in the same creative mindset):
 Bernard Meninsky
 Mulk Raj Anand
 Garman sisters, Lorna and Kathleen
 Jacques and Gwen Raverat (continued letter exchanges with Virginia Woolf after moving to France)
 Bertrand Russell
 Arthur Waley
 Hugh Walpole
 G. E. Moore
 Ann Bridge
 Frances Partridge, married Ralph Partridge after Lytton Stratchey's and Dora Carrington's deaths and continued living in Ham Spray house.

Later offspring
Too young to be part of the original Bloomsbury group:
 Nigel Nicolson, son of Harold Nicolson and Vita Sackville-West, also biographer of Virginia Woolf
 Cressida Bell, daughter of Quentin Bell
 Burgo Partridge, son of Dora Carrington's widower, who later married Angelica and David Garnett's daughter

Critics of Bloomsbury
 Wyndham Lewis
 Roy Campbell (poet)
 D. H. Lawrence criticised the homosexual tendencies, though close to the core members of the group.

title: Durham House (Goshen, New Hampshire)

text:
The Durham House is a historic house on Ball Park Road in Goshen, New Hampshire.  Built about 1860, it is one of a cluster of plank-frame houses built in the rural community in the 19th century.  This one is further note for its Greek Revival features, and its construction is tentatively ascribed to James Chandler, a noted local builder.  The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.

Description and history
The Durham House is located south of the village center of Goshen, at the northwest corner of Ball Park Road and New Hampshire Route 31.  Its main block is a -story Cape style wooden structure, with a gabled roof and two chimneys, measuring about .  Its walls are formed out of 3-inch wooden planks placed vertically, with lateral stability provided by wooden dowels.  The exterior is finished in clapboard siding.  The main facade is five bays wide, with sash windows flanking a center entrance.  The entry has a six-panel door and full-length sidelight windows, and is sheltered by a gabled portico.  Shed dormers adorn the front and rear roofs, and there is a garage extending to the left and a single-story enclosed porch to the rear.

This house was built about 1860, and is one of the finer examples of the town's plank-frame houses.  The house may have been built by James Chandler, a local builder known for this construction method, whose mill and quarry were not far away.  The Greek Revival features of the entry are an unusual feature of the houses in this collection.
