In the United Kingdom under the premiership of Gladstone, the Representation of the People Act 1884 and the Redistribution Act of the following year were laws which further extended the suffrage in the UK after the Derby Government's Reform Act 1867. Taken together, these measures extended the same voting qualifications as existed in the towns to the countryside, established the modern one member constituency as the normal pattern for Parliamentary representation; the Act extended the 1867 concessions from the boroughs to the countryside. All men paying an annual rental of £10 and all those holding land valued at £10 now had the vote; the British electorate now totalled over 5,500,000. The bill was so objectionable to the House of Lords that Gladstone was forced to separate the legislation into two bills, the second being the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 which redistributed constituencies, giving more representation to urban areas; the 1884 Reform Act did not establish universal suffrage: although the size of the electorate was increased all women and 40% of adult males were still without the vote.

Male suffrage varied throughout the kingdom, too: in England and Wales, two in three adult males had the vote. Section 2: This extended a uniform household franchise to all parliamentary boroughs and counties in the United Kingdom. Section 3: Men inhabiting a dwelling-house as an employee, whose employer did not live there, were to be treated for franchise purposes as if they were occupying as tenants. Section 4: Prohibition of multiplicity of votes; this was not to stop people acquiring multiple votes in different constituencies, but to restrict sub-division of one property to qualify multiple voters. Section 5a: A man, a £10 occupier in a county or borough was to be a voter in that county or borough; this assimilated the previous county occupation franchise and borough occupation franchise into a uniform occupation franchise. Section 6: Occupation in a borough was not to confer a county franchise; as many crofters in the Scottish Highlands qualified as £10 occupiers, the Act empowered Scottish Gaels to take action against evictions and rent increases at the end of the Highland Clearances.

Their votes led to the formation of the Crofters' Party and Highland Land League, the passage of the Crofters' Holdings Act 1886, which addressed many of their grievances and put an end to the Highland Clearances.

Jean Buridan was an influential 14th century French philosopher. Buridan was a teacher in the faculty of arts at the University of Paris for his entire career, focusing in particular on logic and the works of Aristotle. Buridan sowed the seeds of the Copernican revolution in Europe, he developed the concept of impetus, the first step toward the modern concept of inertia and an important development in the history of medieval science. His name is most familiar through the thought experiment known as Buridan's ass, however this thought experiment does not appear in his extant writings. Buridan was born sometime before 1301 at or near the town of Béthune in Picardy, France, or elsewhere in the diocese of Arras, he received his education in Paris, first at the Collège Lemoine and at the University of Paris, receiving his Master of Arts degree and formal license to teach at the latter by the mid-1320s. Unusually, he spent his entire academic life in the faculty of arts, rather than obtaining the doctorate in law, medicine or theology that prepared the way for a career in philosophy.

Unusual for a philosopher of his time, Buridan further maintained his intellectual independence by remaining a secular cleric, rather than joining a religious order. A papal letter of 1330 refers to him as "clericus Atrebatensis diocoesis, magister in artibus." As university statutes only permitted those educated in theology to teach or write on the subject, there are no writings from Buridan on either theological matters or commentary of Peter Lombard's Sentences. Speculation on his reasons for avoiding religious matters have remained uncertain. Most scholars think; as well, it is unlikely that he could not afford to study theology, given that he received several bursaries and stipends. Indeed, he is listed in a document from 1350 as being among the teachers capable of supporting themselves without the need for financial assistance from the University. Zupko has speculated that Buridan "deliberately chose to remain among the'artists,'" envisioning philosophy as a secular enterprise based on what is evident to both the senses and the intellect, rather than the non-evident truths of theology revealed through scripture and doctrine.

The last appearance of Buridan in historical documents came in 1359, where he was mentioned as the adjudicator in a territorial dispute between the English and Picard nations. It is supposed that he died sometime after since one of his benefices was awarded to another person in 1362; the bishop Albert of Saxony, himself renowned as a logician, was among the most notable of his students. An ordinance of Louis XI of France in 1473, directed against the nominalists, prohibited the reading of his works. Apocryphal stories abound about his reputed amorous affairs and adventures which are enough to show that he enjoyed a reputation as a glamorous and mysterious figure in Paris life. None of the stories can be confirmed, most contradict known historical information; some rumors hold that he died when the King of France had him put in a sack and thrown into the River Seine after his affair with the Queen came to light. François Villon alludes to this in his famous poem Ballade des Dames du Temps Jadis.

Others suggest that he was expelled from Paris due to his nominalist teachings and moved to Vienna to found the University of Vienna. Another story talks of him hitting Pope Clement VI with a shoe; the concept of inertia was alien to the physics of Aristotle. Aristotle, his peripatetic followers held that a body was only maintained in motion by the action of a continuous external force. Thus, in the Aristotelian view, a projectile moving through the air would owe its continuing motion to eddies or vibrations in the surrounding medium, a phenomenon known as antiperistasis. In the absence of a proximate force, the body would come to rest immediately; the theory of impetus proposed that motion was maintained by some property of the body, imparted when it was set in motion. Buridan was the first to name this motion-maintaining property impetus but the theory itself did not originate with him. A less sophisticated notion of impressed forced can be found in the Avicenna's doctrine of mayl. In this he was influenced by John Philoponus, developing the Stoic notion of hormé.

The major difference between Buridan's theory and that of his predecessor is that he rejected the view that the impetus dissipated spontaneously, instead asserting that a body would be arrested by the forces of air resistance and gravity which might be opposing its impetus. Buridan further held that the impetus of a body increased with the speed with which it was set in motion, with its quantity of matter; this is related to the modern concept of momentum. Buridan saw impetus as causing the motion of the object:...after leaving the arm of the thrower, the projectile would be moved by an impetus given to it by the thrower and would continue to be moved as long as the impetus remained stronger than the resistance, would be of infinite duration were it not diminished and corrupted by a contrary force resisting it or by something inclining it to a contrary motion. Buridan contended that impetus is a variable quality whose force is determined by the speed and quantity of the matter in the subject.

In this way, the acceleration of a falling body could be understood in terms of its gradual accumulation of units of impetus. Because of his developments, historians of science Pierre Duhem and Anneliese Maier both saw Buridan as playing an important role i

The Ontario Model Parliament was a model parliament for high school students in Ontario, Canada. The OMP was founded in 1986, much through the efforts of Dr. Paul Bennett, a former history master at Upper Canada College in Toronto; the OMP is not affiliated with any political party. OMP was ended after its thirtieth session so that it could be combined with another event to form a larger conference, OMUN. More than 200 students participate in the OMP each year; the annual OMP commences with an "Elections Day", in which the "government" and "opposition" are established. The delegates prepare their "legislation" for the legislative sessions held in the spring; the students convene at the legislative building for Ontario. The students debate their bills. In addition, the delegates hear from keynote speakers. In the past, such speakers have included The Hon. Elizabeth Dowdeswell in 2015, Kathleen Wynne in 2014, John Tory, James Bartleman and Rex Murphy. Ontario Model Parliament celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2011.

For 2015, the dates for OMP are the following: Elections Day: April 7, 2015 Simulation: April 8–9, 2015 For 2015, the Ontario Model Parliament Executive included: Chairs: Aleksei Wan Vice Chair: James Coady Director of Academic Programming: Nikhil Kassum Director of Registration: Javid Karim Director of Communications: Kinton Cheung Director of Operations: Shakir Lakhani Director of Delegate Services: Miles Hoaken Secretary: Matthew Jagdeo Head of Press Corps: Derek Lam Faculty Adviser: Mr. Matt Griem OMP official website.
