The New Walk Museum and Art Gallery is a museum in Leicester, England. It opened in 1849 as one of the first public museums in the United Kingdom. New Walk contains displays of both science and art, international and local.

Dinosaurs and fossils 

Two skeletons are permanently on display — a cetiosaur found in Rutland, and a plesiosaur from Barrow upon Soar. The dinosaur is a specimen of Cetiosaurus oxoniensis. The 15 metre dinosaur is among the most complete sauropod skeletons in the world. The bones in the display are mostly replicas of the originals, which are too fragile to be used.

The Barrow Kipper, named after the flatfish, is a skeleton of a plesiosaur discovered in Barrow upon Soar in 1851. It has been wrongly classified twice, and at present has no accepted name. Other "star attractions" of the gallery are  a Leedsichthys (a giant fossil fish) and a piece of the Barwell meteorite.
The museum has a specimen of international importance, the Charnia fossil. This was the first fossil ever described  from undoubted Precambrian rocks. Until then, no  large (non-microscopic) forms of life were known to exist at that time. The object in the museum – "Leicester's fossil celebrity" –  is a holotype. It is the actual physical example from which the species was first identified and formally described. Charnia masoni was named after Roger Mason. He discovered it in Charnwood Forest in 1957, when he was a schoolboy. He who went on to a career as an academic geologist. The fossil had been discovered a year earlier by a schoolgirl, Tina Negus, "but no one took her seriously".
Art 
The museum holds the UK's largest collection of German Expressionist art. These paintings, including works by George Baselitz, Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee, were smuggled out of Nazi Germany before World War II. The Nazis condemned the work of these painters. Hans Hess, son of the German-Jewish industrialist and art collector, Alfred Hess, was assistant curator at the museum.

In 2007, more than 100 pieces of art went on display at the museum, donated by Richard Attenborough, namely a collection of Picasso ceramic art.

Other exhibitions 
On the first floor of the museum is an exhibition area that changes periodically. Recent exhibits have included a display focusing on the search for the remains of Richard III, a Wallace and Gromit display, and Spirits of War to Hands of Peace, an exhibit of paintings and sculpture on the horrors of war and the power of peace.

The Weinstein effect is a trend in which men and women come forward to accuse other famous or powerful men and women of sexual abuse, harassment or misconduct. The term Weinstein effect came into use in October 2017. That's when media outlets began reporting on alleged sexual abuse against movie producer Harvey Weinstein.

The effect gave rise to the Me Too movement. That movement encourages people to share any experience of sexual harassment or sexual assault. The two events caused a cascade of allegations. The allegations brought about a fast removal of many men and women in positions of power in the United States.

As a result, many notable figures were accused of sexual harassment/abuse such as Kevin Spacey, Charlie Rose, Louis C.K., Dustin Hoffman, Matt Lauer, U.S. Representative John Conyers, United States Senator Al Franken, former Senate candidate Roy Moore, Les Moonves, Garrison Keillor, Welsh MP Carl Sargeant, Asia Argento and U.S. Associate Justice-nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

A triptych is a series of three separate paintings that together form a story. The word comes from the Greek adjective triptukhon (three-fold), from tri, (three) and ptysso, (to fold) or ptyx, (fold) The paintings are usually joined together, with hinges, so that they can be folded shut or displayed open. The middle painting is usually larger, although they can be of equal size.

A triptych is usually an art work, but the word can be used for anything in three parts which join together to make a single item.
Example
The English painter William Etty painted a 28 ft (8.5 m) wide and 9 ft 9 in (3 m) high triptych of the life of Saint Joan of Arc. Etty sold the painting; The new owners were an engraver and a dealer who went bankrupt in 1852. The paintings were separated and sold by 1893. The first panel which showed Joan of Arc finding the sword in the church of St. Catherine de Fierbois ended up in the collection of Llantarnam Abbey, Cwmbran, South Wales, U.K. The Second panel is in the collection of the Musée des Beaux-Arts d'Orléans. The third panel has since been lost.

Epenthesis is a term in phonology. It refers to adding one or more sounds to a word. 

If it is added at the beginning, it is called prothesis. If added at the end of the word, it is called paragoge. There are two types of epenthesis:  when a consonant is added, and  when a vowel is added. The opposite process where one or more sounds are removed is called elision.

Uses 
Epenthesis can happen for many reasons. The rules of how sounds are placed in a language may not allow vowels next to each other, but in different syllables. Some consonant clusters may not be allowed. In this situation a consonant or vowel can be added to make pronunciation easier. Epenthesis may be shown in writing or may happen in spoken language.

Separating vowels 
A consonant can be added to separate spoken vowels in hiatus. This happens with linking and intrusive R, which is a rule that puts an 'r' in a place where it doesn't normally happen.

 drawing →  drawring (in speech).
Linking consonant clusters 
A consonant can be placed between consonants in a consonant cluster where the place of articulation is different (e.g.,  where one consonant is labial (pronounced with the lips) and the other is alveolar. 

 something → somepthing (but not in standard English).

Breaking consonant clusters 
A vowel can be placed between consonants to separate them.

 Hamtramck  →  Hamtramick

Regular examples in English are -i-, used in making words from Latin such as equidistant, and -o-, used in making words from Greek roots or general compound words, as in speedometer.

Sound change in history 
 Latin  > French  ("to tremble")
 Old English  > English thunder
 French ,  > English messenger, passenger
 French ,  > Portuguese , 
 Latin  > homne > homre > Spanish  ("man")
Rules in present-day languages 
In French,  is placed in inverted interrogative phrases between a verb that ends in a vowel and a pronoun that begins with a vowel:  ('he has') >  ('has he?').  Because the  come from Latin  ('he has') there is no epenthesis from the point of view of history. This is because the  is the original third-person verb inflection. However it is correct to call it epenthesis in the modern language because the modern basic form of the verb is , so the way the process works in the mind is to add a  to the basic form.

A similar example is the English indefinite article a, which becomes an before a vowel. It comes from Old English ān ("one, a, an"), which kept an n in all positions. From a diachronic (historical) analysis, the original n disappears, except if a following vowel needs for it to stay: an > a. However, with a synchronic analysis people can also see it as epenthesis: a > an. This is how most native speakers see it.
In Dutch, when the suffix -er (which has several meanings) is placed after a word which already ends in -r, another  is put in the middle. For example, the comparative form (the form people use to compare things) of the adjective zoet ("sweet") is zoeter, but the comparative of zuur ("sour") is zuurder and not the expected *. The same happens with the agent (someone who does something) noun form of verkopen ("to sell") which is verkoper ("salesperson"), but the agent noun of uitvoeren ("to perform") is uitvoerder ("performer").

Variable rule 
In English, people often add a stop consonant in nasal + fricative combinations:

 English hamster /ˈhæmstər/ often pronounced with an added p sound, GA:  or RP: 
 English warmth  /ˈwɔːrmθ/  often pronounced with an added p sound, GA:  or RP: 
 English fence /ˈfɛns/  often pronounced

Epsilon Aurigae, also called Maaz or Almaaz, is a yellow supergiant star forming part of the Auriga constellation.

It is orbited by a binary star which is surrounded by a thick dusk cloud. The dust cloud only creates infrared light.

The dust cloud was originally thought to be the largest star known, before it was later revealed to not be a star. The largest star was later found to be VY Canis Majoris, and  even later, WOH G64.

Another theory says that the dusk cloud could be a black hole, but this theory is no longer believed in.

Scottish Americans are American citizens whose ancestry originated wholly or partly in Scotland, a constituent country of the United Kingdom. The majority of Scots who immigrated to the USA were originally from Northern England and Lowland Scotland before migrating to the province of Ulster in Ireland (Scots-Irish) and colonists. Large immigration from Scotland to the USA begin in the 1700s.

The Ulster-Scots originally came from the Lowlands and the Scottish border before migrating to the province of Ulster, Ireland. From there, they would have emigrated in large numbers five generations later to North America during the eighteenth century.

Today, most Americans of Scottish ancestry are concentrated in New England and the American South, with Florida, Ohio, Washington, Utah, New York and Pennsylvania also having large Scottish populations.
