Mann Eddy

The Mann Eddy is a very small ocean current feature in the Atlantic. It is a persistent clockwise circulation in the middle of the North Atlantic ocean. Dr Rory Bingham from Newcastle University, UK describes it as "a persistent pocket of water in the Atlantic that just goes around and around."[1]

... that a message of farewell to the spa town of Buxton on a window pane of the Old Hall Hotel was reputedly inscribed by Mary Queen of Scots?


The Old Hall Hotel is a hotel in Buxton, Derbyshire, and is one of the oldest buildings in the town.[6]

It is located on the site of the warm spring for which Buxton water is known.

The current building dates from the Restoration period, built around and incorporating an ealier fortified tower. This four-storey tower was built in 1573 by Bess of Hardwick and her third husband, George Talbot, 6th Earl of Shrewsbury, on the site of an earlier Auld Hall.[7]

The tower was used at times between 1576 and 1578 to house Mary Queen of Scots, whilst she was in the custody of the Earl on the orders of Queen Elizabeth I. [8]

The Hall was rebuilt by the Duke of Devonshire into its present form in 1670.

Daniel Defoe whilst staying in the Old Hall in 1727 wrote that "This is indeed, a very special place with its own special feeling". (Quoted in [7])

By the time that the nearby Georgian Crescent was built (1780-86), Buxton had become an established spa town; and the Old Hall had become a fashionable hotel for the Georgian aristocracy taking the waters. [7]

It has served as a hotel ever since.

... that half of all horse chestnut trees in Great Britain (used by generations of children for the game of conkers) are now infected by the potentially lethal disease Bleeding Canker of Horse Chestnut?

There have been several mentions of WP:BLP1E here, including the original request for deletion. In my opinion, WP:BLP1E does not apply: the whole of the policy [[WP:BLP] is concerned with the particular care needed when "adding information about living persons". In this case, the relevant policy is surely WP:BIO1E, which is significantly less restrictive than WP:BLP1E. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hallucegenia (talkcontribs) 06:25, 10 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Alternatively, the cold store can be liquid air or Nitrogen.

Cryogenic energy storage

edit

Cryogenic energy storage uses the liquification of air or Nitrogen as an energy store.

A pilot cryogenic energy system that uses the liquid air as the energy store and low-grade waste heat to drive the thermal re-expansion of the air has been operating at a power station in Slough, UK since 2010.[1]
